Podcasts about Xtravaganza

The 1991 trans culture documentary “Paris is Burning” featured Venus Xtravaganza, a vogue performer who was murdered before the film premiered. Decades later, the Pellagatti family embark on a journey to solve her death while learning more about the way she lived her life.  Her brothers take up the unfinished business of legally changing Venus's name and closing her cold case. But are they ready to hear that their loving acceptance of their sister might have been far too late for her. Now on Netflix, the documentary film “I'm Your Venus” explores the themes of trans visibility, chosen family, and loss. It follows the Pellagattis as they try to get justice and acceptance for their lost sister. It also features her ballroom family - the House of Xtravaganza - as they seek recognition for the trailblazing performer they called their own.OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "I'M YOUR VENUS" BEGIN IN THE FINAL 15 MINUTES OF THE EPISODE.

A body hidden beneath a mattress. A confession lost to suicide. And two families refusing to let her be forgotten.Venus Xtravaganza was a rising star in New York's ballroom scene, immortalized in the landmark documentary Paris Is Burning. But before the film could finish, Venus was found strangled in a Manhattan hotel room in 1988. Her murder went unsolved, her legacy nearly erased. Now, decades later, I'm Your Venus, a powerful new LGBTQ+ true crime documentary follows her biological brothers and her chosen family from the House of Xtravaganza as they reopen the cold case, uncover shocking new evidence, and fight to reclaim her name and story. In this episode Jordi and Brad dives deep into Venus's life, her death, and her enduring legacy, and even covers some information that isn't talked about in either of the documentaries covering her life. So press play, pour yourself a drink, and toast to uncovering queer stories too powerful to forget.

On Christmas Day 1988, the body of 23-year-old Venus Xtravaganza was discovered hidden beneath a bed in a New York City hotel room. She had been strangled days earlier—and over three decades later, her killer has never been found.Venus was a transgender performer and a rising star in the ballroom scene, immortalized in the landmark documentary Paris Is Burning. But behind her dazzling stage presence was a young woman living on the margins, navigating a world that often refused to see her humanity.In this episode, we trace Venus's life—from her New Jersey childhood to the catwalks of underground balls—and unpack the police indifference, media silence, and societal stigma that followed her death. We explore how Venus became a symbol of both beauty and tragedy, and what her unsolved murder reveals about violence, visibility, and the cost of being yourself in a world that punishes difference.Who killed Venus Xtravaganza—and why has justice still not been served?

I want to be with the man I love. And if things just don't work out with him, I'm still going to go for it, and do whatever it is, and be on my own."-Venus Xtravaganza Paris is Burning - Deleted ScenesHer story is not long sadly, but it is beautiful .

Welcome to the Book XChange's Science Ficiton Xtravaganza, wherein your humble twin hosts line up and discuss a plethora of science fiction titles we've read, remembered, and want to recommend. Science fiction is SUCH an incredibly broad genre to cover, and we don't even try to survey it all - rather, we list books we've read over the years that have really stayed with us for one reason or another, and that we think have something to offer to our listeners. Whether you're a sci-fi junky or only dabble in it occasionally, we think there's something here for everyone. Enjoy responsibly! 

So here we are, the truly magnificent, slightly chaotic, overly long conclusion to our Xmas madness. It's seen us well into January this year, which is maddening and funny. We had so many questions this year. A ridiculous amount, frankly. But we couldn't let the die hards down, and that meant doing each and every single one. Somehow, despite divvying them up equally across the three episodes, the final part of this trilogy comes in a whopping 3 hour episode. Yes folks, bear witness to our first and hopefully last ever 3 hour episode. It was a chore, the edit was painful but it was also an immense amount of fun. This is probably actually our funniest episode ever. The hot takes are hotter than ever and the bantermobile has gone off the track and into some truly outlandish territory. After all this we're taking next week off. Mostly because we actually have a lot to do and a lot of research on a band with a huge back catalogue. A band you perhaps never thought we'd cover (it's not Prince). To keep you going we've created a playlist of our favorite albums of 2023. See ye in two weeks!

Enjoy unaired excerpts of interviews with two brilliant authors: Sydney Baloue and Tre'vell Anderson. Sydney Baloue, who is currently writing Undeniable: A History of Voguing, Ballroom, and How it Changed my Life and the World, dives deeper into the House of Xtravaganza's legacy. He also opens up about his own foray into ballroom (which started in Europe) and reflects on his history-making performance at the Latex Ball in New York City. In the second half of the episode we hear from Tre'vell Anderson, the author of We See Each Other: A Black, Trans Journey Through TV and Film. Tre'vell discusses their own relationship with representation, talks about an early trans celebrity (and what her fame meant for future trans stars), and considers whether visibility can lead to true progress.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Christmas and New Year are very much in the rear view by this point, but due to our schedule having shifted due to ransomware attacks and COVID, we only managed to record parts two and three of our Xmas special last week. Usually part two is where we really get cooking. The booze is starting to kick in, the takes are at a reasonable level of spice, and we're still largely coherent. That is, of course, not the case this year. We start part two sober, but it's still as fun as it usually is. Because this is the part of the podcast schedule where we give back to you lot, we really take our time in answering your questions this year. That's why this is a mega episode. It's a lot of fun though. So grab something non-alcoholic (seriously, give your liver a break) and cosy up with this our new year's treat. OH YEAH: we also made a playlist of all our favourite Scottish bands right now. It's not just the ones we mentioned in the episode, there's a whole bunch more besides.

HAPPY NEW YEAR! Due to COVID we recorded part one of our Xmas Xtravaganza remotely, so this is a relatively subdued affair both in terms of banter, hilarity and searing hot takes. But we do get through a fucking TON of your questions, and that's awesome. Thanks to every single person who sent us some in December. We've got two more episodes to record, which we'll be doing TOMORROW (Jan 2nd) in person with copious amounts of alcohol. Thanks for an excellent 2023. Let's smash 2024 together, eh?

Y por ello conoceremos a Isabel y a su chico, que tienen una historia de amor que ya quisiera Netflix. El calor no nos impedirá salir a la calle.

Transgender woman Venus Xtravaganza was featured in the groundbreaking documentary Paris is Burning, which delves into the Harlem ball scene of the late 1980's. Abruptly during the film, the audience is informed that Venus was murdered and that her body was discovered strangled to death under a hotel bed four days after her death. Her murder remains unsolved, but someone knows the truth. SOURCESParis is Burning; Documentary by Jennie Livington, 1990Jackson, J. D. (2002). The Social World of Voguing.

HAPPY NEW YEAR FOLKS! For those of you not based here in lovely Scotland, aside from having the 1st of January as a holiday we also get the 2nd, so today is another holiday for us. Which is great if you happen to work for an employer that recognises it. We digress. The wheels start to come off in this episode in quite a fun way, which is why it's MASSIVE. In this episode we discuss the awfulness of folk metal, Baywatch, Weaver's grammar, nasty Japanese porn comics, Transformers and of course Sir David Attenborough. We also talk about our favourite albums of 2022. Next week we have something quite special (hopefully!) stay tuned…

Merry Christmas folks! Or Merry Boxing Day, I guess. We hope all of you had a wonderful time no matter what you did or who you spent it with. Part two of our Xmas special is a remarkably civilised affair, which you may be shocked to hear, given how these things usually tend to go. Some spicy takes are of course had, and there is mercifully little chat about Jones and Kushner this week, but there are some very cool questions and some cool guest answers too. We're away to tend to the Xmas leftovers and continue to drink our body weight in booze. Have a good week and enjoy the gootch end of the year. Or barse. Or whatever.
