#RockStarLife: Coffee Break
🦇 Hosted by award-winning drag rockstar and comedian Zenobia Darling, Zenobia Darling’s Midnight Meltdown is a nocturnal transmission from the haunted edges of Baltimore exploring pop culture, the paranormal, reality TV, beauty culture, queer nightlife, underground art, cryptids, celebrity scandals, and the beautiful chaos of modern life.
👻 Part late-night rant, part paranormal field guide, and part cultural commentary roast, the show dives into everything from Bravo meltdowns and haunted locations to internet decay, drag culture, local legends, celebrity absurdity, beauty and hair, and the strange theater of modern existence.
📻 Whether flying solo or joined by artists, outsiders, and other creatively feral humans, Zenobia serves up dark humor, sharp observations, punk attitude, and a healthy disrespect for taking anything too seriously—treating ghosts, glamour, celebrity meltdowns, and cultural collapse with roughly the same level of importance because they’re probably more connected than we’d like to admit and absolutely deserve some major shade.
🩸 Sometimes insightful. Sometimes unhinged. Always after dark.
This is late-night radio with a haunted frequency. A comedy show with a paranormal obsession. A place where glamour meets the grotesquely unhinged, gossip meets the supernatural, and absolutely nothing is safe from a little shade.
The coffee break is dead.
The meltdown begins at midnight.
🦇 New episodes begin broadcasting Halloween 2026.
It’s midnight, let’s get unhinged with Elyse Welles! 👽🌙
This week in a preseason interview episode, I’m hanging out with my neighbor, author, podcaster, and spiritual practitioner Elyse Welles for a trip down the Mother Susquehanna! 🌊 We’re talking Havre de Grace, Susquehanna quartz, Gettysburg ghosts, and the mysteries hiding in the land around us.
Elyse shares her journey as an author, including her books, Sacred Wild: An Invitation to Connect with Spirits of the Land and her paranormal mystery novel What the Water Remembers. We dive into egregores, collective energy, NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani, surviving these increasingly dark and bizarre times in America, and my upcoming book, Zenobia Darling’s Phenomenon: A Drag Queen’s Guide to the Paranormal.
🎃 AND DARLINGS, SAVE THE DATE! Elyse is co-directing Samhainfest 2026, happening Halloween weekend, October 31–November 1, at Graw Alley at Harmer’s Town Art Center in Havre de Grace, Maryland! 🔮 Come celebrate Samhain with a weekend of spiritual exploration, rituals, creativity, community, and all things witchy!
