EP12 – Ring – Transport Ring and Cece TV with Sunday Service
This week on the GayPHX Podcast, we’re talking about what happens when local businesses actually give a damn — about their workers, their customers, and the community they serve.
First up: Ring from Ring Transport. While the big rideshare apps treat drivers like disposable gig workers and passengers like cargo, Ring is building something different right here in Phoenix — a service that runs on dignity, reliability, and actually showing up for people. We dig into what it takes to compete with the giants when your only advantage is that you actually care.
Then Cece TV joins us from Sunday Service Drag Brunch — the boldest, brightest Sunday morning party in the Valley. Cece breaks down how this whole thing started, what makes a Sunday at Stacy’s hit different, and why drag and community go together like mimosas and… well, more mimosas. Plus, we’ve got tickets in hand for March 29th when the one and only Silky Nutmeg Ganache takes the stage — and we’re reminding you to grab yours before they sell out at StacysAtMelrose.com.
We also touch on why local media matters more than ever — especially after the FCC approved the Nexstar-Tegna merger, putting KPNX Channel 12 and 265 other stations under corporate control. When your news is owned by a boardroom in Texas, guess whose stories get told? Not ours. That’s exactly why GayPHX exists — and why we’re proud to partner with Lookout News and ION Arizona to keep local voices loud.
As always, this podcast is just part of the story. Most of these interviews hit the GayPHX stream first — so if you want to hear them live, plus music, community updates, and the stuff that never makes it to the feed, find us on TuneIn, Radio Garden, Radio.net, and MyTuner. We’re on 24/7.
Thanks for listening. Thanks for supporting local. And thanks for proving that community still means something.
