## Resource

Jinkx Monsoon returns to the pod for the third time! Jinkx is an award-winning actress, comedian, recording artist, and the first and only drag queen to win RuPaul’s Drag Race twice. She has become a Broadway breakout star with critically acclaimed performances in Chicago (where she broke box office records during an extended 10-week run), Little Shop of Horrors , the Tony-nominated revival, Pirates! The Penzance Musical - which landed Jinkx her first Drama League Award nomination, and two stints as the star of the Tony-award winning phenomenon Oh, Mary!. And she’s about to take her titanic talents to London next month where she’ll be starring as Judy Garland in End of the Rainbow , which is about Judy’s final years. Jinkx also plays the musical-mayhem-making villainess, Maestro, in Doctor Who , and she’s done tons of voice over work in shows like StevenUniverse . And Jinkx continues to tour the world performing with her drag soulmate BendelaCreme in their annual The Jinkx & DeLa Holiday Show , as well as in her own cabaret and stand-up shows with longtime collaborator Major Scales. And in 2025 on Valentine’s Day she headlined her first - and sold out - concert at Carnegie Hall which featured Pam casting a love spell from that legendary stage. Throughout it all she’s brought her witchcraft practice to each performance in overt and covert ways. On this episode, Jinkxdiscusses the magic of theatre, her evolving relationship to witchcraft, and her “witch mission” of liberating the divine genders.  Pam also talks about some recent witchy signal boosting from SNL’s Rachel Dratch, and answers a listener question about finding comfort from different deities.
