Drag has been in the news a ton lately and for all of the wrong reasons as far as we’re concerned! The right has, and continues to, vilify drag artists, claiming that these beautiful performers are out to do serious harm to our children. Well, honey, not only are we here to tell you that this isn’t the case, we’re also going to drop a little history on you all. Join Jen and Carolyn as they discuss how an art form that started in ancient Greek theater has become the subject of an Emmy winning show as well as one of the right wing's favorite groups to hate.
