Grizzly Kiki began in April 2014 as a pop culture and drag-centric podcast hosted by Robert Lechuga & Daniel Silva. We launched with recaps of RuPaul’s Drag Race and other reality programming. Shortly after releasing the first few episodes, we narrowed our focus to create a podcast that was unique in concept and would serve a community near and dear to us: DRAG QUEENS!!!!!!!!!!!!! The podcast is equal parts oral history and good old-fashioned kiki. We found that there were few platforms where Drag and Nightlife Artists could talk about their art and themselves in an open and honest way. Most of what is known about these artists comes from videos posted on the Internet or what they experience in bars and clubs. It was clear that there were stories to be told and shared with the world. Our mission is to create a comfortable and safe environment, where these artists can share their histories and experiences. Ours is a podcast that is meant to serve the drag and nightlife community by capturing the artists’ voices and making them available to the public. Grizzly Kiki is a program for drag enthusiasts, Drag Artists, and everyone in between. Listen and Join the Party!!

Miss Toto
#IMINLOVEWITHMISSTOTO
On this episode, we interview Miami's Party Queen, Miss Toto. A towering drag goddess, she is a staple of the Wynwood District's alternative drag scene. She moved to Miami to pursue a graduate degree in Marine-Science Research. Little did she know that she would also be studying the art of drag. As with many, the bug bit hard, and under the tutelage of her drag mothers Juleisy Y Karla, Miss Toto was born. Since then, Miss Toto has been painting her face, donning heels, and serving Miami everything a 6' 5" muscle queen has to offer!
Miss Toto chats with us about doing drag at night, tagging sharks by day, body building, and her upcoming appearance at Bushwig 2018. She also shared how she keeps herself in tip-top shape while pursuing all her passions. Miss Toto may be a Party Monster, but self-care is the top priority for this Queen!
