Live Wire is having its big fall season finale on December 10th with special guests Pattie Gonia, Ophira Eisenberg, and Team Dresch!
Live Wire Radio is an independently produced radio show based in Portland, Oregon. Hosted by Luke Burbank and announced by Elena Passarello, the show artfully blends unpredictable conversation, live music, and original comedy featuring all kinds of cultural talent and creative minds, from emerging artists to established acts. Live Wire champions discovery by producing engaging, spirited, and genuine live and listening experiences for a local and national audience.
Pattie Gonia is an environmentalist, drag queen, and community organizer. They've been named to the TIME100 list, honored as Outside Magazine's Person of the Year, and included on National Geographic's 33 list. They have also raised more than $3 million for grassroots BIPOC and Queer non-profits and co-founded the Outdoorist Oath, a nonprofit that creates community and opportunities for allies, BIPOC, Queer and underrepresented groups to get outdoors. They're currently touring the country as the star of "SAVE HER!", a drag show about the climate, politics, and the power of nature.
Ophira Eisenberg is a comedian, writer, and podcast host who headlines theaters and comedy venues across the world, tours regularly with The Moth Mainstage, and hosts the weekly parenting-comedy podcast "Parenting is a Joke." Her new comedy special "I Used to Be Nicer" is streaming now. She also hosted NPR’s trivia comedy show "Ask Me Another" for 9 years. Her breakout memoir "Screw Everyone: Sleeping My Way to Monogamy" has been optioned for a television series.
Team Dresch are a legendary Portland-based punk band and a founding voice of the queercore movement. Formed in 1993, their albums "Personal Best" (1995) and "Captain My Captain" (1996) became touchstones of '90s queer punk. Furthermore, their third album and first album in 30 years is out this fall. And they remain legendary because, more than three decades later, they’re still going strong.
