This episode originally aired in May 2024.

Drag superstar Latrice Royale has been in the game since before Ru Paul’s Drag Race was a phenomenon. She won Miss Congeniality on her season of that show, and went on to appear on All-Stars and Drag U. An actor and performer, Latrice leads Season 4 of HBO’s drag docuseries We’re Here. And if you know anything about Latrice, just a few moments with Della Reese’s character, Vera Walker, in the Eddie Murphy-directed dramedy Harlem Nights  will show you how Latrice’s persona may have been shaped by Vera’s no-nonsense power and heart of gold.

Then, Jordan has one quick think about Humane, directed by Caitlin Cronenberg.
