Ep. 67: Wade McCollum

Jim Silvestri, Freddie Cosmo, Red Eye Radio Season 1 Episode 67

Live from Red Eye's Cockpit, Freddie & Jim go right into the Drag Race Season 16 cast reveal... what are their thoughts on this very young, New York-heavy roster?

Then, the very talented actor (and soon-to-be neuroscientist!) Wade McCollum is in the studio to tell us about the one man off-Broadway hit that Jim & Freddie just saw him in: Make Me Gorgeous! Wade plays a fascinating real life queer person who hustled through the WWII era in a way that feels very contemporary.  He also has an interesting life story of his own that he revisits while discussing the realities of being a theater actor in NYC (and beyond)  today.

In the news: World AIDS Day is observed in New York, and current infection statistics are reviewed; stink bombs and trans slurs disrupt VERS; new local venues from The White Lotus actor Michael Imperioli & DJ Eli Escobar; George Santos is a Cameo Queen; Jackie Cox is back on Days of Our Lives; RIP Cock Destroyer Sophie Anderson; a new Pantheon queen is crowned; GLAM nominees for Best Gogo Dancer & Best Club Party are dissected.
