Show Notes

*Jimbo & Brady pop into the conversation around the 25 minute mark.*

Jimbo the Drag Clown and his partner, Brady Taylor, ZOOM'd in from across the pond while touring all over the UK following Jimbo's successful run on RuPaul's Drag Race: UK vs the World! Jimbo and Brady have done their fair share of interviews separately, but this is the very FIRST dual interview! We get the clown AND the man behind the clown. Getting Jewcy has officially popped their cherry!

Jimbo and Brady open up about their lives outside the drag and artistry industries. They reflect on their past experiences prior to Canada's Drag Race's spotlight and the inception of their own brand "House of Jimbo". We learn about the relationships with their former partners and how the two of them met and co-parent Brady's two children from his prior marriage. Jimbo explains more about the philosophy and evolution of his drag clowning and Brady speaks to the processes that it entails, both as a hair stylist and recently transitioning from being an engineer for 20 years!

This dialogue really touched on the hustle and pure work ethic that we as humans and creators experience, how much goes into being your own brand and identity, and navigating through the many obstacles that present along the journey.

As we aim to in all episodes, this one covers mental health and gender/sexuality, specifically within the 2SLGBTQIA+ spectrum.
