Podcast of the Week: Shangela

by Daniel Falconer | 12 August 2019

We can’t get enough of podcasts here at Female First. That’s why every week, we're showcasing one of our favourites so you can go and listen, and enjoy them too!

The great thing about podcasts is how simple they are to consume – you could be driving, cooking, working out – they require no visual engagement. All you need is a handy device to listen on, and you can go about your daily life listening to whatever you like.

From crime to comedy, history to health, there’s something for everyone in the wonderful world of audio programmes.

Jumping outta the box...

This week, we've been catching up on the first season of Shangela, fronted by the drag queen of the same name herself! Having gone from strength to strength since her multiple appearances on RuPaul's Drag Race, Shangela is now a world-renowned performer, who even got the chance to give her all in a Beyoncé medley in front of the Queen B herself.

Now, with her own podcast and a bunch of recognisable guests, who all open up with ease when they're chatting with Shangela, fans of Drag Race and even those new to her infectious personality can enjoy a podcast unlike any other.

One of the funniest episodes is one in which Shangela reunites with one of her best drag friends, Alyssa Edwards. The two talk about the time in which they were invited to go out to Amman, Jordan, to perform for troops, and the hilarious drive to the camp in which they were told about 'The Triangle of Death'.

This, and a whole other bunch of brilliant stories are revealed in the podcast. Currently on a break, there are a whole host of episodes available to stream.
