Is it on? Is it on?? Honey, is this thing recording?! TS Madison broke the Internet with six seconds and a 22-inch weave. And she didn’t just go viral — she became part of the culture, from "RuPaul's Drag Race" to Beyoncé’s "Renaissance." Her superpower? Her voice. Her kryptonite? Doesn’t exist. Her podcast? The one they never saw coming. Each week on "Outlaws," Madison sits down with living legends and rising stars who shed their armor and own their stories — turning side-eyes into sermons, pain into punchlines, and grief into galaxies. They speak when silence is safer. They dream when told to disappear. And they know what so many are taught to fear: that when you speak your truth, you open a portal. Some episodes will crack you up. Others may crack you open. Keep the tissues nearby, just in case. "Outlaws" is proud to be part of the Outspoken Network from iHeartPodcasts, in partnership with Turtle Run Entertainment.

Trans Pageant Legend Mimi Marks on 40 Years of Living Unapologetically

Trans icon and Miss Continental 1992 winner Mimi Marks sits down with TS Madison for a raw, emotional conversation about four decades of refusing to hide. From winning Miss Waterloo in 1986 to becoming one of the most legendary names in pageant history, Mimi shares how a kid from Iowa who always knew she was a girl found her community—and her voice—when drag became her doorway to living authentically.

In This Episode:
How Mimi discovered trans community in Milwaukee drag bars in the 1980s
Navigating the Jerry Springer era and exploitative daytime television
The legacy of Chicago's Baton Show Lounge and pageant excellence
Why "boy team/girl team" never made sense for trans kids
How Mimi's relationship with her siblings has changed and why
The impact of Fox News and Pro-Trump propaganda on Mimi's family
What the next generation of trans performers needs to know about their history
Mimi's first time seeing Madison's viral Ursula monologue (and falling in love with her talent)
The importance of being on time, professional excellence, and respecting the craft

Trans history. Pageant royalty. Mutual admiration between two legends who paved the way.

Featured Guest: Mimi Marks (@mimimarks11) - Miss Continental 1992, Chicago Baton Show Lounge icon, Jerry Springer alum, trans pageant pioneer

Topics: transgender history, drag pageants, LGBTQ culture, trans representation, Jerry Springer, Chicago nightlife, trans elders, pageant competition, living authentically, 1980s trans community, Miss Continental, Baton Show Lounge, trans activism, queer history

Mimi Marks: If God Didn't Make Me This Way, Then Whose Fault Is It?

This week's episode deserves a Michelin Star because, baby, these ladies are COOKING! TS Madison welcomes ballroom ICON, internet sensation, and South Philly’s very own Sexy Lexy, a.k.a. Alexis Sno, for an incredible episode of "Outlaws" that's all about Black queer excellence, survival, and motherhood. 

In this episode: Lexy and Maddie talk "booster" culture, going viral, and remembering the late Cookie Tookie and their complicated sisterhood. They dive deep into Philly's ballroom scene, where "chosen family" is not just a nice phrase but a stark reality for many, the nuances of gender identity, the "transgender umbrella," what transitioning meant then vs. now, and a hot take on Ms. Caitlyn Jenner.

Also: the thrill of "realness" pumps, dating as a trans woman and the life-or-death risks of disclosure and dating safety; Lexy’s role as the Overall Mother of the House of Khan, and why Lexy and Maddie are embracing their gray hair and status as mentors for the next generation. They also discuss visibility as a form of activism, Gay Mamas, ballroom vs. pageant culture, and whether or not Madison has ever tried voguing.

Plus: A powerhouse pep talk from Madison to Lexy on branding, manifestation, and affirmations to turn her personal brand into a business empire, and why she should NEVER feel bad about making her money!  

Can't get enough of Sexy Lexy? Tune in to her podcast, "Let’s Address It," on her YouTube channel.

This week, TS Madison is tapping into the SOURCE with psychic medium, minister, and spiritual teacher Dr. Lakara Foster.  It's Miss Lakara with the gift - DON'T call her a witch!

They're asking big questions, like is there a hell and are we headed there?  (Spoiler alert, Lakara doesn't think so!)

She tells us how she starting seeing spirits at three years old, and how her gift informs her work as a pastor - including the fear many christians have of mediums.  

And could Madison have a touch of the gift? The world better look out for the Book of Madison, cos she's been preaching on the daily!

Hear more from Dr. Lakara Foster on The Medium Roast Podcast, and check out her episode with Maddie!
