Happy Pride Month. We’re kicking off June with someone who has built a career that refuses to separate the stage from the fight. Drag artist, comedian, producer, Guinness World Record holder, two-time GLAAD nominee, Out 100 honoree, GLAM Entertainer of the Year, four-time City & State Pride Power 100 recipient, and 2025 NYC Pride Grand Marshal Marti Gould Cummings joins us to talk about the city that made them, the history our community can’t afford to forget, and the local and national work they’re doing to ensure queer people have the space to be heard and represented.

We get into all of it. We go deep on LGBTQ history, from Stonewall to the fragility of the rights we have today. We make the case directly to gay conservatives who believe the government isn’t coming for them. And we talk about the importance of local power. Marti founded the Hell's Kitchen Democrats, serves on the New York State Democratic Committee, has spoken at the United Nations, and explains what it’s actually like to fight for your community from the inside out.

This one is for anyone who still thinks their rights are guaranteed.
