The First

The First Time I Performed in Drag

Joe Faragher, also known as Pickle [https://www.instagram.com/itspicklebitch/], is a Los Angeles based Drag Queen known for her incredible stage presence, campy performances (I once saw her do Pokemon and Julia Child numbers on the same night) and tall stature (made even taller by Stilettos and bouffants that rival Amy Winehouse’s). This is the story about what happened before Joe and Pickle met, and how one of the worst nights of his life birthed an unforgettable drag experience. This episode was produced, edited, and researched by Kara Hart. The music that you heard in this episode is by Szjana, a Manchester UK based musician and disk jockey. Tweet at him  here [https://twitter.com/szajnamusic] and listen to the gold that he mines from the depths of his brain here [https://soundcloud.com/szajna].  If you are fortunate enough to live in Los Angeles, you can catch Pickle perform on a couple of nights. Every Monday night at the Offbeat on York in Highland Park with Exposure Drag and Every Tuesday Night at Precinct in Downtown with Camp. Check instagram for updates on special events (that happen quite regularly).
