    Vadim Mozyrsky (Candidate for Multnomah County Commission)

    Vadim Mozyrksy is a Portlander, administrative law judge, father, activist, and Ukrainian refugee. And he's running for Multnomah County Commission. He most recently ventured into politics a couple of years ago with a run for Portland City Council. In his words, losing that race helped him to better understand which political office he is best suited for and how he can best help Portland. The election is just 3 weeks away, so give this episode a listen and decide for yourself if you are voting for Vadim!

    Mx. Dahlia Belle (Comedian)

    Dahlia Belle is one of the funniest comedians in Portland, but she is so much more than just a comedian. She has self-described herself as a "black Woman, stand-up comedian, writer, activist (in that order)." We talk about the various identities that coexist to make Mx. Dahlia Belle that person that she is, and the various identities that make Portland the city that it's become.

    PaleBlueWave (Photographer and Social Media Video Artist)

    I first discovered @PaleBlueWave on Instagram months ago and was fascinated by the short videos of random Portlanders getting their portrait taken. As his instagram following grew, he developed a fanbase, and now people seek him out as their on-the-street portrait photographer. His work is beautiful, endearing, charming, and disarming. And my favorite part of his story is that the inspiration for his art came from a dark place in his life.

    Carla Rossi / Anthony Hudson (Portland's Premier Drag Clown)

    Anthony Hudson (drag name Carla Rossi) has been performing in Portland for years, and has steadily built quite a following. Nobody else is in Portland is doing what they are doing, and what they are doing is indescribable. In this episode, we get into Anthony's 2-spirit identity, land acknowledgements, and being public enemy number one for a drag queen story hour photo.

    Mike Schmidt (Multnomah County District Attorney)

    How do you feel about the state of Portland right now? Many aren't too happy with how things are, and many blame Mike Schmidt, Multnomah County District Attorney. That said, it was a privilege to have Mike on the show and learn more about how the DA office functions. Mike talks about his childhood, his politically right-leaning parents, and why he wrongly gets blamed for many of Portland's ills. Thanks again to Mike and his team for making time to be on the show!
