#117Stand up Comedy is hard! Finding a mentor in comedy was easy. Todd Youngman has inspired and pushed me to find the confidence and focus to share the truth on stage! Not only is it quick to remember, it’s relateable and so ridiculous it HAS TO BE TRUE!

When I first met Devin and team with Amped Accessories I immediately felt a rush of Kindness. I thought is this the Canadian or is this real life? Come to find out years later after many interactions and a continued friendship that Devin’s kindness sparkles just like their accessories. -

I couldn't wait to interview my friend and colleague, Danny Hoskins. I met Danny when he directed the Producers and I played Roger DeBris, I have worked with him many times but we became friends when we developed Imagination Station Live and later the children TV Show. More recently he was my mentor and co-professor in our Drag History, Theory and Performance class at Brockport College.

Brock McGillis is my trusted friend. I’m so very grateful for his guidance and our conversations. As a child I was first bullied by the athletes in school and I’m inspired by his work to change that narrative for the future of sports one team at a time!

Taylor Thomas inspired me the moment we met. I felt the positivity and the desire to spread kindness not only from Taylors overall demeanor and energy but from their smile.
I look forward to supporting Taylors initiatives not only with the book store/mutual aid pantry but I have this feeling that there is more in store from Taylor for our community in Rochester and beyond!
Consider me INSPIRED! -
Kyla Minx and I have always had a very fiery and honest relationship and I LOVE IT! I respect upfront and honest people and Kyla isn’t afraid to stand up for herself and tell you what she’s thinking. We grew up in the same club/drag family at Muther’s and it’s something that I not only look back on fondly but I protect and cherish. Kyla is my sister and I look forward to many more laughs together as we roll along entertaining and standing up for our LGBTQ+ community!

Ambrosia Salad is HANDS DOWN one of the nicest people I have EVER met! I want you to get to know my Rochester sister who WARNED ME that this “Drag world has it’s shine and sparkle indeed, but also isn’t for the faint of heart”.
I love this person and they are a part of my inner circle in and out of drag and someone who I count on through thick or thin! -

I have always been magnetically attracted to confident women. My mother, grandmother, Aunts, teachers and friends. Mary is one of these said women! I credit Mary for inspiring me to pursue Drag Story Hour. Together we are partners with our forthcoming Family TV program Imagination Station. -
Darienne Lake is a STAR and always has been! A staple for outstanding Drag entertainment in the Rochester Community and now beloved worldwide as a fierce contestant on RuPaul’s Drag Race season 6 and All-Stars 8. Mostly I’m grateful for our laughs and pancake brunches!

Tayler Mayde, sober, Peer counselor, parent of 2, Drag King, Pageant winner and overall positive light. I’m thrilled to have Tayler as a guest and friend. -
I read if you're not learning you're not living. Often times us Older Queens think we know it all (NOPE) and I have had the privilege of coming up in the Rochester drag scene where we make efforts to learn from one another young and old (still with a hefty dose of shade). Carmen Adore came onto the scene here in Rochester and I immediately felt a family vibe! From her obvious talent on the stage to her excellence with styling wigs WORLDWIDE with her self made business Hatz by Carlos, Carmen has truly impressed me! I am most proud to call Carmen my sister/friend who loves a good laugh and is always willing to lend a helping hand.

Aggy Dune Queen is the QUEEN MOTHER of the Rochester drag scene. Aggy has had an undeniable impact on myself, Darienne Lake, Pandora Boxx and a gaggle of many others since the moment she hit the stage. (Whether they like to admit it or not!) The magic we have on stage with banter is truly something I will be grateful for until I stop clomping around in my size 12 pleaser pumps! Aggy never disappoints and despite the obvious ageism in the entertainment world she defies the odds and consistently surprises audiences with her glamorous, iconic and incredible performances. The Lucy to my Ethel, Aggy Dune!
