Let Me Entertain You
Gio is back with Buff Faye and bringing the dating drama.
In this episode, titled “Let Me Entertain You,” Gio shares why “Backpack” is better off as a friend and opens up about navigating life as a 35-year-old gay man who loves his “sissy nerdy” types.
From Tinder to Hinge to OkayCupid, Gio calls himself an “older soul” — the kind who wants to fix and keep what’s worth it.
He and Buff also dish on the current season of RuPaul’s Drag Race, debate what makes a “seasoned entertainer,” and yes, Gio event spills it on Godiva the dog and her wall licking, chaotic karaoke barking.
Then the spotlight turns to special guest Reann Ballslee, a powerhouse entertainer with over two decades of experience in theme parks, cruise ships, and live production.
From growing up in Richmond, VA and learning drag at Godfrey’s, to winning
Homecoming Queen in drag at George Mason University in 2009, Reann’s journey blends performance, pageantry, and fabulousness. After moving to Orlando and working with the Walt Disney Company and alongside entertainers like Roxxxy Andrews at Pulse, her drag became rooted in spectacle, storytelling, and technical excellence.
Reann shares how teaching and performing as Disney princesses shaped her movement and stage presence — those “princess hands” live
in her body to this day.
She talks about investing in your craft, knowing what defines you as an entertainer, and producing shows that move audiences.
Inspired by icons like Dolly Parton and Kylie Minogue’s Aphrodite Tour, Reann believes “larger than life is just the right size.”
Buff and Reann also discuss producing strong drag shows, community connection, and the importance of honing your skills in an evolving drag landscape.
The episode wraps with the fan-favorite game “YASSSS QUEEN.”
Entertainment that educates and celebrates — this episode is all about what it truly means to entertain.
