Happy Pride, queerdos! We are joined for this special summer episode with actor and Dot-Marie Jones. You Might Know Her From Glee, American Horror Story, Golden Arm, Lizzie McGuire, Knights and Warriors, Patch Adams, The Boondock Saints, and Billy Eicher’s upcoming rom-com Bros. Dot-Marie shared her journey from athlete (she competed in the Olympic trials twice!) to the American Gladiators-like series Knights and Warriors, to her Emmy-nominated turn as Coach Beiste in Glee. We got the goods on the favor that Hilary Duff called in for Material Girls, the unaired Ryan Murphy pilot Pretty/Handsome, being part of the very gay ensemble of Bros, and her deep love of Rock of Ages and Vegas. We are just swooning for Dot-Marie and cannot imagine a better way to celebrate pride. Have a gay one, m’dears!
