Show Notes
Today we're taking a look at a movie from director Luke Gilford that started out as a book of photographs taken on the Gay Rodeo circuit and became a lot more. It's NATIONAL ANTHEM, with EUROVANGELISTS' own Oscar Montoya as our very special guest! Plus, we're naming favorite instances of drag on film and pitching fresh Westerns that deserve that angel investor capital.
What’s Good
Alonso - McConnell’s x See’s Candy Ice Cream Collab
Drea - Minnesota State Fair’s “Fried Ranch”
