EP009 – Brandon Sours – Phoenix Gay Men’s Chorus – Jeffrey Perales – Koblat

Pride Month is officially here, and we’re kicking it off with pool parties, Shakespearean sword fights, and some incredible voices from the Valley!
This week, Bily and Brian recap a jam-packed start to June—including a wild night at GRIT, a magical dive into the All Queer Shakespeare Experience, and a cozy IML homecoming BBQ.
Plus, we’ve got two fantastic guests joining us this episode:
🎶 Brandon Sours from the Phoenix Gay Men’s Chorus gives us a preview of their upcoming “Rhinestone Rodeo” summer spectacular.
🍸 And Jeffrey Perales, owner of Kobalt, shares the story of building one of Phoenix’s most iconic queer bars—from navigating politics to keeping drag visible and vibrant.
We also check in on:
