Contributor Bio(s): Labouche, Moxie: - Before she started the Your Brain On Facts podcast to safely vent the copious facts from her brain, Moxie LaBouche performed and produced burlesque. She specialized in "nerd-lesque," i.e., artistically stripped as beloved fictional characters, from Cheetarah to Dracula's assistant Renfield. It was her privilege to produce the only George R. R. Martin-approved burlesque tribute to Game of Thrones and even to play for the man himself. Prior to this, Moxie previously earned her living as a goat farmer, selling soaps and skin care products. She is also creator and co-host of the Science With Savannah, Age 7 podcast and YouTube channel. Moxie lives in Virginia with her husband and a dozen or so pets. |
