Hello everyone, I'm Jinks Monsoon and welcome to a brand new episode of Hi, Jinks!

With me, Jinks Monsoon. Today, my guest is Dave Lara, who you will remember as my veteran

on Season 5 of Drag Race, who has recently come into everyone's minds once more thanks to, I don't know,

I guess Judy Garland brought him up in an episode of television recently, but we talk about

his history in the military as a queer person and his role he played in the early gay rights movements in

San Francisco. We talk about all kinds of things today, and I have to say, Dave is so entertaining,

so sweet, and a complete wild card. You never know what he's going to say next. I hope you

enjoy this really lovely

conversation with my friend Dave today on a brand new episode of Hi Jinks. So buckle up, hunker down,

and sink your teeth into some new hi jinks.

M. Oh. M.

Oh.

Mom! Hello everyone. I'm Jinks Monsoon and welcome to, hi Jinks, a podcast where I, an internationally tolerated drag superstar, get to interview compelling

and fascinating people about how they became who they are and why they do what they do.

Today we are joined by a very special person who made a guest appearance in my Judy Garland

Snatch game, as well as helped me make it to the

final rounds of RuPaul's Drag Race Season 5. He is a veteran and an author. Please welcome Dave

Laura. Hi, Dave. Hi, Dave.

Hi, Dave.

It's so good to see you.

I can't believe that we're doing this after what I would consider a very exciting start to the All-Star season of you're part of.
