I haven’t watched it yet, but apparently the last days of the sex worker scene Mardi ran away from home to join are featured in the documentary Hookers on Davie which was filmed just before the respectable queers forcibly displaced them from the neighborhood.

Also this must be her podcast, A Life Lived Trans.

Edit: better quality version is available here.
