A space for slow listening, MELLOW DRAMA is an ever-unfolding radio conversation between writers across time and place. Like eating a pithy orange with a lover friend, we come together to pull language apart, get juice on our fingers, and feed each other. Hosted by shania-mark twain and DJ Oh Boy–just a couple of slow-mo homos who want to arrive with you.

DJ demi from the block (she/they) was raised in Riverside, California in a working class Mexican immigrant family as the youngest of ten siblings. Demi’s love of nature and desire to restore our relationship to land have led to work that centers public lands conservation, land stewardship and improved access to the outdoors for environmental justice communities. She draws inspiration from Queer, Indigenous authors and advocates that center social change within ecological justice movements, like Aurora Levins Morales, Berta Caceres and Winona LaDuke. In her spare time, Demi enjoys hiking with her dog Dolly Parton.
