We are once again LIVE from Edinburgh Fringe and we are joined by two hugely exciting drag queens: Baby Lame and Cherry West are live on The Final FronTia!

As one of the UK's youngest drag queens, Cherry West has burst onto Scotland's drag scene, most recently starring on Series 4 of the BBC series The Agency. Baby Lame is renowned as one of London's top MC's, known for their dark comedy and alternative cabaret. They have multiple award-winning solo shows (including, at this year's Fringe, "Hit Me Baby One More Lame!") and are one of the producers of RuPaul's Drag Race UK.

On this episode of The Final FronTia, Tia, Baby Lame and Cherry West talk about the fandoms that they're obsessed with: from Drag Race to Big Brother, and the legacy of Rocky Horror. They discuss dream recasting's and how these fandoms have inspired their work today.

They also dive into drag herstory - from Lily Savage to Leigh Bowery, John Waters and the club kids that helped redefine what drag could be. Plus, Baby Lame reveals behind the scenes secrets about Drag Race UK, some of the show's most memorable musical challenges and shares thoughts on what the franchise could do to bring back a little more chaos.

Plus, there's audience questions, a passionate debate about which queens deserve a Drag Race call-up, and a Drag Race quiz!

We are LIVE from Edinburgh Fringe for the second year in a row! In our first (of two!) live episodes, we are joined by one of the most iconic musical comedy duos... Flo & Joan!

Having been featured on Live At The Apollo, Off Menu and even hosting their own Amazon Prime Video comedy special, Flo & Joan are arguably most well-known for their musical One Man Musical - a hilarious take on Andrew Lloyd Webber's life and works.

On this episode of The Final FronTia, Tia, Flo and Joan dive into the wildest stories uncovered during their research for One Man Musical - including tales from the opening night of Cats and Sarah Brightman's explosive journey to an audition.

Flo & Joan also give an inside peak into their own creative partnership, writing comedy about everyday life, the creative differences between their musical comedy and their larger theatrical projects and why some ideas simply refuse to leave your brain alone.

There's plenty of musical theatre nerdiness too, as they reveal their lifelong love of The Simpsons, Stephen Sondheim and Into the Woods, debate the movie-to-musical pipeline and discuss why writing a musical has made them reluctant to publicly declare any other show “bad”.

Smart, silly and packed with musical theatre trivia and more Andrew Lloyd Webber discourse than you could possibly ask for... we're back and we're live!

She’s a Drag Race icon, musician, Broadway star and self-proclaimed pop culture obsessive! Alaska Thunderfuck is our guest on this episode of The Final FronTia!

From winning RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars Season 2 to creating music, performing around the world and starring in Drag: The Musical, Alaska has built a career that goes far beyond the Werk Room.

On this episode of The Final FronTia, Tia and Alaska dive into their shared love of pop culture, including why The Golden Girls has become such an important part of queer culture, chosen family and the joy of finding your people.

They also get into reality TV and Alaska is very clear about why she has absolutely no desire to do it again! They talk about the difference between early Drag Race and the increasingly strategic world of reality TV, the psychological impact of being isolated from the outside world, and Alaska's experience returning for UK vs the World.

There's plenty of theatre chat too, as Alaska talks about playing the iconic Mary in Oh, Mary!, the possibility of bringing Drag: The Musical to the UK and why Alaska wants drag on stage to be a little less sanitised, a little more grungy, glamorous and punk.

It's fun, filthy, pop-culture obsessed and packed with drag history!
