The 'Broadwaysted' Podcast Celebrates Pride with Esteban Castillo, Junior Mendez  ImageThis week the Broadwaysted Crew is celebrating PRIDE month with queer performer Esteban Castillo and queer artist/performer Junior Mendez!

We're pouring out Milagro tequila, Bar Hill gin, and making "Old Hattans" with Van Brunt Stillhouse Whiskey as we spill about great LGBTQ representation in musical theatre, chat about the reaction to Taylor Swift's new song, and dive into the unique history of Pride month.

Gay Master (see what I did there?) Kevin leads the group through "Pride Facts" and a "Gay Icons" Quiz and then introduces the game "Make it Gay, Make it Gay, Make it Gay." We also have an in-depth chat about Fun Home, The Prom, "Riverdale," "Pose," "Undressed" on MTV, and the audio book "Mrs Everything" narrated by Beth Malone!

We have an amazing time with Junior and Esteban this week and are so thrilled to celebrate LBGTQ+ Pride month so grab your headphones and your biggest rainbow flag and listen in as Pride gets Broadwaysted!
