We learn about Morah’s beer journey & how she learned that she can chug beer. We also delve into the beginnings of her Drag Queen life, her early bad outfits, the effort just to get ready for a show & how humor has helped in her journey. We also talk about the KC Drag community & how like-minded people’s support have helped Morah accept who she is & allowed her to flourish. Definitely one our most poignant episodes. Shout out to our special “intern” Zach, who got to push the “mystery beer” button on the board. No clue what we drank, but we did clean out our 6-beer capacity official Beers with Nigel mini fridge.
