It's time for another chapter of Lies My Vagina Told Me, where my vagina has made a lot of questionable calls but today, she booked a professional. In this episode, I sit down for some girl talk with the one and only DJ Mighty Iris.You know her as the voice of not one, not six, but now EIGHT radio stations across the country and like a radio phoenix, she is bringing it back old school. I fell in love with her when I did an interview on her show and we pick up where we left off talking about Billy Wirth and David Duchovny, my co-stars in Red Shoe Diaries, intimacy coordinators, and the marshmallow eating contests. We also get down and dirty dishing about her crush on Martin Short and her one true passion…to be the voice of an animated character!Follow DJ Mighty Iris on Instagram Subscribe to her YouTube channel!Listen to her on the air!10am - 3pm 93.7 KCLB Coachella Valley, ROCK101 Lubbock, 102.9 The Rattler, 102.5 Mad Rock Nation3pm - 7pm 103.3 The App San Antonio, River105 Mankato8pm - 12pm KINK 101.9 Portlandand Sundays 10am - 3pm 94.3 The SharkSend me a message!Remember to leave a  ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ rating and a review!
