To kick off Pride Month we have a treat for you: a BONUS LIVE EPISODE of Problematic Fave!
In this special episode, we travel to SeriesFest in Denver, Colorado where Problematic Fave host Dino-Ray Ramos moderated a special RuPaul’s Drag Race conversation with local Denver drag queens Geo Conjure, Sexy Sadie, and Electra Dupri as well as Keith Garcia, artistic director of the Sie FilmCenter at Denver Film — who is also a “drag mentor” of sorts, having worked with Drag Race winners Yvie Oddly (season 11) and Willow Pill (season 14).
We don’t follow the usual format of Problematic Fave. Instead, after the queens performed (it was an incredible a show!), we watched a preview of RuPaul’s Drag Race All-Stars season 8. We then chatted about the impact of Drag Race on the queens’ lives and we addressed the current landscape of anti-drag, anti-trans, and anti-queer legislation that is spreading across the country. They also told us a little bit about the amazing drag talent in the Denver and what makes the local scene so sickening.
