Happy Pride! This week, Peaches and Michael are road tripping in style in celebration of 1994’s THE ADVENTURES OF PRISCILLA, QUEEN OF THE DESERT! In addition to discussing the film’s undeniable impact on queer representation at the movies, our hosts delve into how this classic’s unapologetic fabulousness paved the way for a cultural drag explosion. Joining the conversation is legendary Australian pop icon Mark Trevorrow, who pulls back the curtain to share stories about the real people and queer scene that inspired the movie. Then, drag superstar Pandora Boxx stops by to reveal how PRISCILLA helped her explain her own journey to others…and why it continues to inspire. From flip-flop dresses to bus-top opera, this episode has it all! GO!
