Happy Wine Wednesday!

Grab your wine and secure your wig - it's time for I'ma Need More Wine Podcast to talk all things Drag Race!  We are thrilled to bring you part one of our Drag Race extravaganza.  Join us for a nice stroll down Drag Race herstory lane and a deep dive into the first seven episodes of Season 12.

7:45 - What We Liked This Week and the Corona Corner
After we share what we're drinking and toast our lovely listeners in Chicago, we share what we like this week. Kristine is excited about the return of two of her favorite guilty pleasures - Keeping Up with the Kardashians and Real Housewives of New York.

26:37 - Our Drag Experiences
We travel down memory lane to the times when we were still allowed to go outside and reminisce on some of our favorite live drag performances.

43:00 - Styles of Drag
New to drag?  We've got you covered with this brief, although not exhaustive, primer on drag styles - particularly those seen on Drag Race.

50:31 - The Highs and Lows of RuPaul’s Drag Race
We love Drag Race, but not so much that we cannot recognize where the show falls short. We would love to see more trans contestants on the show and to see RuPaul take a more proactive approach to addressing the social media harassment faced by Black contestants. 

1:37:00 - First Impressions of Season 12
Widow had us at hello.  Gigi wowed us with her fashion sense, especially her keen sense of fit and shape.  We've loved Jaida since the promo pics dropped.  Her Werk Room entrance did not disappoint.

1:56:11 - Favorite Mini and Maxi Challenges
We rave about beehive jiving and runway showdowns.  As for maxi challenges, World's Worst was a delightful love letter to Drag Race fans.

2:21:55 - Favorite Mirror Moment
If your cup is empty, you might want to grab a refill and the tissues as we get all into our feels thanks to Jackie Cox, Widow Von Du, and Rock M. Sakura.

3:02:45 - Favorite Guest Judge and Outro
Nicki Minaj and Thandie Newton gave thoughtful feedback and got our vote for best guest judges.  We also enjoyed watching Leslie Jones fulfill her Drag Race fantasy after bringing us so much joy with her live tweets.
