#RockStarLife: Coffee Break
☕🛸🦇 Hosted by drag rockstar Zenobia Darling, #RockStarLife: Coffee Break is a caffeinated transmission from the haunted edges of Baltimore exploring pop culture, the paranormal, reality TV, beauty culture, queer nightlife, underground art, cryptids, celebrity scandals, and the beautiful chaos of modern life.
👻 Part gossip session, part paranormal field guide, and part cultural commentary roast, the show dives into everything from Bravo meltdowns and haunted locations to internet decay, drag culture, local legends, and the strange theater of modern existence.
📻 Whether flying solo or joined by artists, outsiders, and other creatively feral humans... Zenobia serves up dark humor, sharp observations, punk attitude, and entirely too much coffee—treating ghosts, glamour, and cultural collapse with the same level of importance because they're probably more connected than we'd like to admit and absolutely deserve some major shade.
✨ Sometimes insightful. Sometimes unhinged. Always caffeinated.
📻🦇 Stay tuned... Season Three breaks through the spirit box static this Hott Ghoul Summer 2026.

🔥 Kathy Griffin Made Me Podcast Again... Espresso Shot!!!

Today’s espresso shot is powered by one thing — Kathy Griffin. My number one celebrity, my number one person, and the reason I literally dusted off the podcast mic the second her new stand-up special My Life on the PTSD List dropped on YouTube. My apartment might be a mess (same with my life), but Kathy just supercharged me back to life.
In this episode, I gush about my lifelong love for Kathy and why she means so damn much to me. I dive into her new material — the chaos, the comedy, and the catharsis — from Sia and Jane Fonda to Kim & Kanye, Paris Hilton, a gay cruise massage story, and that wild, unfiltered Britney and Justin story straight from the Kathy Griffin vault. I even dish on Jeffree Star and the way Kathy hilariously brushes past James Charles in the most gloriously gay way possible.
We get into what made comedy in the 2000s so good and bad, how it’s changed, and why Kathy and I both thrive in that sweet spot of storytelling comedy that doesn’t always fit neatly into club culture — but hits straight to the heart. And, of course, I nerd out hard, because my “’tism” is literally knowing every Kathy Griffin special, CD, cameo, and credit — from Suddenly Susan to The X-Files.
I also go on a tangent about Oprah and Whitney Houston, because honestly, you can’t talk Kathy Griffin without mentioning those two legends.
And yes, Kathy even manages to make her trauma and suicide attempt funny — because that’s what great comedy does: it makes the unbearable bearable, helping us laugh our way toward healing.
So grab your coffee (or something stronger), and let’s celebrate the queen herself — Kathy Griffin — and the art of surviving through comedy and chaos.
☕️ PS: I also give an update on my upcoming paranormal doc, Ethereal Anarchy!
