Ill Repute

This week, Sovereign Syre and Ela Darling conclude their series on Phyllis Diller.  “As a child I had very strong passions and aspirations, and I’ve lived to realize them all. I’ve had a family, I’ve known great romance, clothes are coming out of my ears, God only knows the friends I have, and although I didn’t foresee all the travel, it has been just incredible. I was the kid who never had a room or a birthday party. All I had to play with were boxes, but I loved my boxes. The glass, you see, is always half-full, and I’m grateful for all I’ve experienced.” --Phyllis Diller Sources: Like a Lampshade in a Whorehose by Phyllis Diller with Richard Buskin https://fsgworkinprogress.com/2012/08/23/remembering-phyllis-dil https://kottke.org/23/07/phyllis-diller-crashes-all-male-roast-at-the-friars-club-dressed-as-a-man-1983 https://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2012/08/why-do-so-many-pretty-female-comedians-pretend-theyre-ugly/261510/ Credits: Script by: Sovereign Syre Hosted by: Sovereign and Syre &a
