We’ve got a true queer power couple in the studio today: THE Raven-Symoné and Miranda Maday, co-hosts of the hit podcast Tea Time! Raven’s been in the spotlight since diapers, but don’t get it twisted – Miranda is every bit a powerhouse herself, with an Emmy to boot. Nothing’s off-limits in this conversation. We’re tackling the biggest (and girthiest) questions about strap-ons: Raven wants to know, why pink? Madison counters, why not? And are “flesh-tone” strap-ons outdated—or still the ultimate hipwear?? Raven gets candid about growing up under the Disney microscope, the pressures around gender identity and presentation, and how meeting Miranda changed everything. In just 38 minutes, this episode covers so much ground—from why entertainers get paid so much, to what it’s like navigating private pain while in the public eye, to why the powers-that-be are so terrified of social media. And of course, what it actually means to represent the LGBTQ+ community (or as they call it: the Labiquita!) as public figures. "Outlaws" is hosted by TS Madison, and is part of the Outspoken Network from iHeartPodcasts, co-produced by Turtle Run Entertainment.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mo'Nique: Money Can't Rub Your Back
For this episode of Outlaws, TS Madison is joined by the QUEEN of comedy herself, Mo’Nique! These girls go way back, and Mo’Nique shares a story about her and Madison’s first interview together. The pair talk about their respective journeys to stardom and navigating Hollywood as plus sized girls. Whether your trans or cis, there’s a lot of pressure to change who you are, but Mo’Nique isn’t having it. She reminds us that the public fell in love with THE TS Madison as she is, loud, live, and in COLOR! Next, Mo’Nique spills about her relationship with her husband Sidney Hicks, and how she fell in love with her best friend. She talks about how this relationship has opened up new ways of seeing herself, and what she deserves– and what we all deserve from love! And of course, neither our host or our guest today shies away from controversy– sometimes on opposite sides. We get a peak behind the scenes at how TS Madison helped reconcile Mo’Nique and Lee Daniel’s working relationship. And we’re all winning because of it! Could we see more TS Madison-facilitated reunions in the future? Could we see a conversation between Mo’Nique and Oprah? Or Tyler Perry? Mo’Nique and Maddie say the door is open!

Orlando Jones: All Rebels Are Welcome
With a multifaceted career both onscreen and behind the camera, Orlando Jones is the definition of a storyteller. And he’s no stranger to being called an outlaw– from "Mad TV" to Mr. Nancy, Orlando’s been shaking things up since the 90s! To start off, Orlando tells TS Madison about his evolution in the entertainment industry. An early adapter of mobile media content, Orlando’s media company won the first ever virtual reality Emmy Award. Next, they get into the nuances of centering Black voices in entertainment– storytelling is a powerful tool, and Orlando wants to see more stories by and for Black America! And of course, we have to get into the “American Gods” of it all. Madison thanks Orlando for his work shaping the show’s iconic, Mr. Nancy– not only playing the character on screen but developing the character in the writer’s room as well! The pair talk Mr. Nancy’s iconic monologues, the show’s reimagining of spirituality and mythology…and of course get into the details of Orlando’s controversial firing from the show– which prompted fan backlash and boycotts of the show’s third (and ultimately final) season. That’s not all– in an exclusive moment, Orlando Jones reveals he’s just finished a Mr. Nancy novel! Could we see a role for TS Madison if (and when) it’s ever adapted for the screen???

Miss Lawrence: Welcome to Our Table
This week on Outlaws, we’re bringing you the iconic Miss Lawrence! From Housewives to slaying the real estate game, this episode spotlights Black queer excellence. TS Madison and Miss Lawrence share their love for each other, as two groundbreaking voices of reality TV. Miss Lawrence talks his sh!t, with a previous career as one of the most sought after hairstylists in Atlanta which then laid the groundwork for his eclectic career in the entertainment industry. Madison and Lawrence dish on the public perception of flamboyant Black queens and the expectations that they will not succeed– which makes it even more important to celebrate their wins! Both of these icons have changed the way Blackness, queerness, and femininity are seen on and off screen– and their work is paying off! The duo delve into the highlights of Miss Lawrence's career– from his “Villain era” of pushing his team towards greatness, to the chance encounter that inspired him to close his salon and move onto bigger and brighter things, to working together on Bros and maybe a future project on the “sacrifices of the boot”… We’re then treated to a surprise facetime call and Maddie’s showstopping rendition of Happy Birthday for Miss Lawrence’s niece. And for this week’s Ban It, Bitch, Miss Lawrence is taking on Hookah bars (he’s saving all our voices, y’all!) In times like these where some are trying to erase Black and queer history, it’s now more important than ever to uplift voices like Miss Lawrence, that embody the abundance, excellence, and greatness we’re all capable of. We’re here and we’re not going anywhere!

Terri Joe & Kelon Campbell: With Just One Lick
Teresa Josephine Marie Fortenberry 🫱🏻🫲🏾Thunderstorm Madison. We’re mixing it up today with the internet’s favorite good Southern Christian girl, Terri Joe. Terri’s here to share the word of the Lord with TS Madison, and how she navigates the world as a true child of God amidst abominations like vampires, welfare, hair dye, and pork chops. Terri shares stories from growing up in Bon Temps, Louisiana, including her…unique conversion therapy method, granted to her by God. Over the years, Terri Joe has cured many a hommaseggsyuhs (except for her nemesis Saucy Santana) and her work is far from over! Unfortunately, Terri Joe had to leave unexpectedly mid-interview, but the phenomenal Kelon Campbell steps in to take over the rest of the episode! Madison shares her love for the success of Kelon’s alter ego and how sharing the stage with Terri Joe has been a longtime dream! Kelon reflects on how Terri Joe came to be, taking the stage with Madonna, and going live with legends (Doja Cat!). We get into everything from the night he was escorted by security out of Shawty Bae’s birthday party, to the upcoming TERRI JOE MOVIE in the works! Did y’all know that was happening?! Madison encourages Kelon, as an Outlaw and as one of the seeds of her garden, to speak on his accomplishments with a little more pride moving forward – because if you can't celebrate yourself, how in the hell you gonna celebrate somebody else?! AMEN. "Outlaws" is hosted by TS Madison, and is part of the Outspoken Network from iHeartPodcasts, co-produced by Turtle Run Entertainment.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Is it on? Is it on?? Honey, is this thing recording?! TS Madison broke the Internet with six seconds and a 22-inch weave. And she didn’t just go viral — she became part of the culture, from "RuPaul's Drag Race" to Beyoncé’s "Renaissance." Her superpower? Her voice. Her kryptonite? Doesn’t exist. Her podcast? The one they never saw coming. Each week on "Outlaws," Madison sits down with living legends and rising stars who shed their armor and own their stories — turning side-eyes into sermons, pain into punchlines, and grief into galaxies. They speak when silence is safer. They dream when told to disappear. And they know what so many are taught to fear: that when you speak your truth, you open a portal. Some episodes will crack you up. Others may crack you open. Keep the tissues nearby, just in case. "Outlaws" is proud to be part of the Outspoken Network from iHeartPodcasts, in partnership with Turtle Run Entertainment.
