Happy Friday folks! This week I have a jam packed episode! I talk with Picture Lock contributor Julia Moroles about her love for documentary filmmaking, and her latest documentary. Julia also talked with Gabe Polsky, director of In Search of Greatness about his latest documentary, which is in theaters today! I talk with Chief Instigating Officer, Dan Brawley, of the Cucalorus festival about what we can expect to see next weekend at the festival that is still standing strong in it’s 24th year in Wilmington, NC. Which is awesome because the city was hit hard by Hurricane Florence this year. So mark your calendars for November 7th-11th film lovers! If my talk with Dan isn’t enough to convince you to check it out, my conversation with one of my new best friends, Jenna Laurenzo surely will. Jenna is the director of Lez Bomb, a hilarious new comedy about coming home and coming out. The film will be playing at the Cucalorus film festival, which is quite coincidental because at the time we recorded, I had no idea! You’ll definitely want to hear the Picture Lock After Show conversation I had with Jenna which I’ll drop Monday on the podcast. It’s packed, but it’s another great episode!

We're going back into the Sewers of Paris archives this week, for an interview with ex-boybander Kevin Yee. Kevin's new comedy special recently premiered Hulu, as part of the Comedy InvAsian series. He's been a performer for almost all his life, with his career taking a wild twist in his teens when he was cast in a 90s boy band. Three years later, things hadn't quite turned out as he'd hoped, and he thought his dreams of performing were over before he had even reached adulthood.These days things are looking a bit better -- in addition to his Hulu special, you can hear him on the podcast 2 Dope Queens, and at the upcoming Cucalorus Festival and Dead Crow Comedy Comedy room in November. And you can get the story of his journey from boy band to stand up right now in our conversation.Quick reminder that the very first Queens of Adventure livestream is coming up -- November 4 at 1pm pacific. It's a game of Dungeons and Dragons played live, with queens in full drag; and it's a fundraiser to benefit Seattle Children's Hospital.
