Happy PRIDE month and happy summer! This issue is all about pride – pride in being who you are and celebrating our LGBTQ+ community. You’ve seen our cover model, Nick Adams on Broadway, in and out of drag. Jason Stuart is a comedic trailblazer, coming out 30 years ago on Geraldo. Mama Tits, the spicy mama from south of the border, is heading out of Mexico for her first US tour. And, of course, we have your calendar of pride events throughout California.

I am also pleased to announce that GED Magazine is celebrating 11 years of publishing this month! To celebrate we are having some fun events –Mama Tits, will be performing at Oscars (oscarspalmsprings.com) on her first stop of a US Tour. You won’t want to miss her on June 7th! Dragaritaville Bingo on June 8th at the Margaritaville Resort, Ethyl’s Place Bingo on June 11th at The Roost Lounge (theroostcc.com) benefitting the Palm Springs Animal Shelter, and Equality Wine Fest (equalitywinefest.com) on July 1st.
