S10 E300: Lillian Bustle and Viktor Devonne, 300 Later (Season 10 Finale)
Lillian Bustle (Jersey City, NJ)  returns to the pod to celebrate 300 episode of WEBURLESQUE on your feed.  Lillian was the first guest on the show, which aired January 23 (ignore all Viktor's references to 2017, he doesn't know what he's talking about.)  Since then, the world ended, sort of came back, has changed somewhat where what fires are and the entrances to hell have shifted gently.  Lillian is now co-producing BOUNCE HOUSE with Abby Fantastic, and shares with Viktor an adjustment of priorities, what we've both learned since Back Then, and what's to come. This chat was recorded on July 27, 2026.

S10 E298: Aloha w/ Shawna the Black Venus
Beloved burlesque legend Shawna the Black Venus, showgirl at age 78, joins Viktor Devonne for a glimpse into her past from Pittsburgh to Oahu, and the stages in-between.  Shawna candidly shares about colleagues, venues, photoshoots, costumes, healthcare, history, and the time she needed her stage fire torches to keep warm in a broken down car on a cold early morning. She would retire in 1994, and return to the Burlesque Hall of Fame stage to staggering applause, with festivals and events clamouring to include her. Still recovering from breast cancer treatment, Shawna is taking time to return to her rightful place back to those stages.
