Beat Check podcast: The man behind Darcelle XV, Portland's iconic drag queen

Walter Cole is perhaps the most prominent living Portlander, but many people likely don’t know him by that name. Instead, they know him by his stage name, Darcelle XV. The Oregonian's Beth Nakamura and Brooke Herbert talked about Cole's life and legacy and about their contributions to a recent video and profile.



Beat Check with The Oregonian is a weekly podcast from the state's largest news organization.
