Episode notes
Peppermint is a multifaceted artist, all-around entertainer, and a self-proclaimed horror movie buff. She is no stranger to the stage or screen, having appeared in the Go-Go’s-inspired Broadway musical Head Over Heels and as a frontrunner on RuPaul’s Drag Race.
Peppermint is back on your TV screen starring alongside Michelle Buteau, Tasha Smith, and Garcelle Beauvais in Survival of the Thickest, a Netflix comedy series that you will surely love. Its second season just premiered and you can stream it right now.
Peppermint joins us to talk about Survival of the Thickest, her very personal audition process for the show, and some questionable camp/incredibly campy horror films: Sleepaway Camp and Return of the Living Dead. Plus, praise for the women of Clue, A Soldier’s Girl, and Hollywood! That’s Meshach Taylor as Hollywood in the 80s classic Mannequin.
Don’t move a muscle! This episode is certified fresh.

About the show
On Feeling Seen, writer and general enthusiast Jordan Crucchiola invites filmmakers, writers, comedians, and artists to discuss the movie characters that made them “feel seen.” It’s about that instant when a person connects to a piece of art so deeply that they see themselves reflected in it. Every week Jordan gabs it up with a guest about those magical moments when they were watching a film and realized, “That’s me!” It’s an informative, funny, and comforting show about our intimate relationship with movies, the impact they have on our lives, and how they influence our art.
