Hello magical friends, and welcome to episode 108 of WZRD Radio! I’m your hostwitch Bess, and today’s interview has been actual years in the making.

Before we get to the interview, however, I wanted to do a quick recap of WZRDFest and WZRD Presents. Between the rain and the power outage you might think it was a disaster, but only if you don’t know wizard rock. We had a rave in the dark, an unplugged rap battle, a pizza party, and the most fun I can remember having, with so many of my favorite people.

It was a reminder that we never cede ground to transphobes, and that includes fandoms. We plant out feet, lock our elbows, and ensure those ideals can’t flourish in our space. It’s why we boycott, and why we write, draw, collage, and make music so joyfully.

I don’t have the words to say everything that WZRD Presents was. Luckily, the Galleon Guy did it for me in our first song, “WZRDFest for good.”
