06/06/18 • 42 min
This week we took a look at some of the most creative and disastrous film and TV that captured the timeless nature of Drag on Screen. From a 70's TV Classic to modern day Drag Race Alumni, we got some interesting and touching results. Michael got to explore something he's been avoiding in "White Girls" and found great joy in the "Flip Wilson show" with a drag character that was a head of her time. Meanwhile Davina got to explore the life of a small time Drag Bar in "Cherry Pop" and got an eye into the interesting world of Jinkx Monsoon in "Drag Becomes Him."
