Ellen: from Trailblazer to Tyrant | TMT 183 (Patreon)

This week Mrs. Pearlmania does a deep dive into the contradiction of the life and career of Ellen Degeneres. A LGBTQ icon who had the courage to speak and come out much earlier than most. She also used her platform to advocate for visibility and many LGBTQ advocacy projects. However there is a dark side that includes countless bullying accusations, and a close friendship with a war criminal.
