I finally got to sit down and chat with Synthia Kiss!! Long time fan of Superficial Spirit, we’ve been trying to lock down an interview for a long time. Even before Canada’s Drag Race. Synthia and I chat about our shared history and experience of being blond twinks obsessed with fame and her journey from the clickity-clack of corporate Canada to the bright and shiny world of reality tv stardom. We breakdown what it was like auditioning for the show, getting cast, keeping it a secret and then surprising her best friends ON CAMERA. We also talk about the rich and sometimes dramatic herstory of Bratpack and what its been like being part of a drag super girl group. Of course, we touch on being on a season plagued by the pandemic and a certain scandal that popped up during a season 2 panel at Drag Con 2022. I could talk to Synthia forever!!!

The Superficial Spirit is a podcast that explores how pop culture affects our spiritual experiences and seeks to uncover unconventional ways people experience the divine… Every episode explores a different area of spirituality including tarot, crystals, psychics, manifesting, plant medicine and modern new-age trends. In the podcast, we ask questions like is modern spirituality a cult? Is Ayahuasca really that profound? Are psychics and tarot even real? What about fame, money, sex and social media? How do they affect our spirituality? Can the superficial really be profound? Ultimately, we believe in one thing: spirituality is real but the tools we use to define it may not be magical at all.
The Superficial Spirit is hosted by Peter Breeze, a former club kid and underground pop star who found success in queer clubs across Canada and America. He believes that his time as a fame-obsessed, hard-partying club-kid was a conduit for his spirituality and is passionate to connect with people who've also had unconventional or scandalous experiences exploring their own spirituality. Peter shamelessly explores the spiritual power of celebrities like Britney Spears, Courtney Love, Paris Hilton and The Real Housewives.
Guests include RuPaul's Drag Race Superstars, Reality TV stars, Scientists, witches, psychics, tarot readers, naturopathic doctors and regular people who've been affected by modern Spirituality.
Every episode includes a segment with @jessica.daily, Peter's Spiritual correspondent and a former reiki master and intuitive who's become passionate about sharing her own journey becoming disillusioned from the new age community. Jessica shares personal horror stories and hot takes about popular new age topics like tarot, psychics, mediums, ayahuasca retreats, crystals, ufo's and aliens.
