I think probably what happened was more people were involved in pride this year than ever before both haters and lovers. There are it turns out way more people who want attention than there are actual gay people like more than we ever thought about. It's a similar conversation as people have about like women's history month in black history month like do we need a month for this? And I saw some people on Twitter kind of going after it. Most of what happens at Pride is really benign. It's just people hanging out on a street drinking. That's most of what I see. But when I go out you see weird shit, we're kind of making fun of it too.
EPISODE THREE, THE PRIDE ISSUE: "We're coming for your children," nudity at Pride events, the politicization of the Pride flag, the forever-changing history of Stonewall, the purpose of drag, how Pride has changed over the years, and more.
