Today, we have a bittersweet announcement: listeners, we have reached the end of season one, making this a season finale for our bright-eyed and bushy tailed project… possibly a series finale. This episode is going to be a little different. Instead of running a single interview, we're actually going to be running two interviews—two catch up chats with some of our favorite guests on the show, just to investigate where they were when we first found them, and what they've been up to since their episode aired.

Victoria Scone is a fantastically talented drag queen who hails from Cardiff in Wales. But she's also a groundbreaking figure because she is the first cis woman to compete on RuPaul's Drag Race. For anyone who's new to drag, you heard me right—she's a woman who dresses as a woman. Or should I say as a WOMAAAAAN. Scone's time on Drag Race was cut short by an injury, but everyone is praying she'll be welcomed back for another season. Today Scone is a touring artist, an influencer, an icon in my eyes. But as she puts it, she's simply a “celesbian.”  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

If you take a scroll through TikTok's For You page on any given day, you'll likely encounter footage of Caitlin Reilly doing what she does best: impersonating people you love to hate. The 31-year-old actress catapulted herself into the TikTok spotlight in 2020, attracting nearly 2 millions followers who can't get enough of the painfully accurate and oddly specific characters she's created. She attracted the attention of this podcast because not only is she hilarious, but her parodies sometimes have an important point: they often critique how women are portrayed in film and television. And we love that. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

A lifelong animal lover, Pam Ahern was a champion equestrian until, one day, everything changed. A tiny piglet, the eminent Edgar Alan Pig, trotted into her life in 2003 and led her down a path she'd never imagined. She gave up her full-time paying job, hung up her riding boots, and dedicated her life to the protection of farmed animals. With Edgar firmly at its heart, Pam built the sanctuary from the ground up and set in motion outreach programs that would bring farmed animals out of the dark unknown and into public view. Pam is also the proud Australian Ambassador for World Animal Day and was a 2014 Victorian Local Hero Finalist in the Australian of the Year Awards.   You can listen and subscribe to us on your favorite podcast platform https://bit.ly/ShesAWomanPodcast If you wanna support the show, and get all the episodes ad free go to https://shesawoman.supercast.tech/.
