Grizzly Kiki | Pop Culture & Interviews With Queer Artists

Grizzly Kiki began in April 2014 as a pop culture and drag-centric podcast hosted by Robert Lechuga & Daniel Silva. We launched with recaps of RuPaul’s Drag Race and other reality programming. Shortly after releasing the first few episodes, we narrowed our focus to create a podcast that was unique in concept and would serve a community near and dear to us: DRAG QUEENS!!!!!!!!!!!!! The podcast is equal parts oral history and good old-fashioned kiki. We found that there were few platforms where Drag and Nightlife Artists could talk about their art and themselves in an open and honest way. Most of what is known about these artists comes from videos posted on the Internet or what they experience in bars and clubs. It was clear that there were stories to be told and shared with the world. Our mission is to create a comfortable and safe environment, where these artists can share their histories and experiences. Ours is a podcast that is meant to serve the drag and nightlife community by capturing the artists’ voices and making them available to the public. Grizzly Kiki is a program for drag enthusiasts, Drag Artists, and everyone in between. Listen and Join the Party!!

Latrice Royale


Latrice Royale is one of the Grande Dames of drag. After appearing on RuPaul's Drag Race Season 4, she was embraced by the world and is now a veritable drag icon. Her determination, drive, and zero tolerance for fuckery took her from the streets of Compton to RuPaul's Drag Race and beyond. Although the path ahead was not always a smooth one, Latrice took what she was given and used it to shape who she is today: A fierce queen, singer, and the embodiment of Drag Motherhood. She is now on tour with her heart-wrenching one-woman show, "Here's To Life." Accompanied by her debut EP of the same name, the show is a summary of her life. Latrice draws from her favorite jazz classics to weave a truthful and dramatic re-telling of her journey from childhood to now. The viewer experience is one of catharsis - although Latrice's story is unique to her, it is one from which we all learn. It is a must-see that provides a fresh outlook on life and how to overcome the obstacles we all must face.
