We’re LIVE from Winter Pride in St. Petersburg, Florida and let’s just say… it started with chaos.
From wrestling an 8-foot step-and-repeat in the wind to launching interviews with local changemakers, this episode captures the real, unfiltered energy of Pride in action.
We bring the Skittle Squad booth to life with bubbles, laughter, and candid conversations with incredible members of the community including Dave from Tampa Bay Gay as well as Allison and Ilene from The Zest Zone.
But this episode also addresses something deeper.
After a surge of new followers and online hate comments, we talk openly about what it means to uplift the LGBTQ+ community in divisive times. Why Pride matters. Why safe spaces matter. And why love is louder.
In this episode:
• Behind-the-scenes booth setup chaos
• Community shoutouts and returning guests
• Drag Race excitement and local events
• Supporting LGBTQ+ businesses and nonprofits
• Handling online hate with resilience
• Why Winter Pride in St. Pete is so important right now
This is what community looks like.
This is why we show up.
This is why Pride exists.
