Our reports from DragCon UK 2023 in London continue with two amazing guests!



First, Fenton Bailey (World of Wonder) joins GJ to discuss his book ScreenAge: How TV Shaped Our Reality, From Tammy Faye to RuPaul’s Drag Race. They discuss how World of Wonder stays independent in the current media climate, what it feels like to nurture queer talent on- and off-screen and how the lessons he's learned over the years (as described in the book) ensure that they keep Drag Race and other shows fresh. It's a rare insight into the company Fenton co-founded with Randy Barbato and has brought us 15 years of RuPaul's Drag Race and more. And what the future might hold...



Then we're joined by Trinity the Tuck. This fan favourite joins us to talk about what it's like coming to Drag Con UK and meeting her European fans after touring the US for a long time. She also isn't afraid to tell us how she stays physically healthy with her grueling schedule, how she views the current political climate as a drag performer and why it's so engrained in her DNA to stick up for local drag performers whenever she can. And she'll tell you what she does with all of her amazing looks....
