Superficial Spirit
Superficial Spirit is a podcast where pop culture, queerness, and spirituality collide. Hosted by Canada’s OG gay pop star Peter Breeze, each episode explores the wild, weird, and wonderful ways we chase meaning through fame, music, identity, and everything in between.
Once a club kid turned underground pop star, Peter built a name in queer nightlife scenes across North America. Now, as he relaunches his music career, he’s inviting other queer pop stars, Canadian celebrities, and spiritual misfits to join him in raw, unfiltered conversations about life, love, ambition, and the forces that shape us.
From drag queens and reality stars to psychics, witches, and wellness rebels, The Superficial Spirit dives deep into modern spirituality with a wink—and a dance break.
Past themes include:
- The culty side of new-age spirituality 🌙
- Ayahuasca, manifestation, and plant medicine 🌿
- Fame, money, and the divine ✨
- Queer identity and spiritual rebellion 🏳️🌈
- Why Britney, Paris & The Housewives are low-key spiritual icons 👑
It’s part interview, part self-discovery, and all heart. Because sometimes, the most superficial things are where the spirit shines brightest.

Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Todd Hoye, owner of iconic Davie Street staple 1181, joins Superficial Spirit for an honest conversation about nightlife, community, and what it really takes to keep a queer space alive.
We talk about Todd’s journey from bartender to owner, the behind-the-scenes reality of buying and running a bar on Davie Street, and why longevity in Vancouver nightlife is anything but guaranteed. From evolving party culture and Gen Z drinking habits to drag as an anchor for events, changing music trends, and the impact of apps on hookup culture, this episode is a candid look at how the scene has shifted — and what still matters.
Plus: stories about imposter syndrome, messy staff moments, Britney Spears devotion, and why queer bars are about more than just drinking — they’re about connection, survival, and community.
