For the 117th episode of Private Parts Unknown, host Courtney Kocak welcomes another history-maker to the podcast: Maebe A. Girl, the first drag queen elected to public office in the U.S. She is currently a member of the Silver Lake Neighborhood Council, while also running for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives to represent California's 30th Congressional District. Maebe uses she/they pronouns and identifies as trans and gender fluid.\nIn this episode, first, you'll hear the story Courtney reported on Maebe A. Girl for KCRW, the local NPR affiliate based in Santa Monica, California, back in September 2019. The story, entitled "For Maebe A. Girl, gender nonconformity isn't her only political act," actually went on to win an LA Press Club Award for Gender/LGBT reporting. After the original radio story, Maebe A. Girl gives us an update on her life these days, including politics, drag, the competitive advantages of her third run for Congress, and her love life.\nFor more from today's guest, Maebe A.
