The Wig Party
The Wig Party is an unabashedly queer podcast where hosts Mohamed, Matt, and Nick chat about how different policies affect our daily lives. We’ll dig into topics ranging from student loan forgiveness to indecent exposure and overshare a few details along the way. While none of us are experts, we’ll do our best to powder in some facts along with some salacious and titillating banter.
