EP 68 - Tanya aka Atomic Bettie

The Mothball Prophecies

If you're the sort of person who likes vintage Halloween, classic movie monsters, or VHS then you may already know this week's guest. Her hair is a dream and her lashes could kill. The lady of the hour is none other than Atomic Bettie (or Tanya if you must). This devilish queen hails from a quiet, out of the way lane in the middle of Amish country, Pennsylvania. But don't mistake her Pennsylvania Dutch roots for Amish or Mennonite. Bettie gives us a culture lesson before diving into her twin loves of mid century kitsch and classis horror. She has a bathroom dedicated to the creature from the Black Lagoon FOR PETE'S SAKE. But don't forget one of her biggest collections: Bettie's got an entire spare room that was converted into a closet for her massive stockpile of real vintage clothing. Architecture built around a collection really is a dream come true.
