In this episode, we welcome back the sensational May Hemmer to chat all things sparkly, sultry and spectacular as she gives us a behind-the-scenes look at the Glamour Geek Revue, Dragon Con’s premier burlesque extravaganza! May reviews past performances as well as shares what fans can expect from this year's show — from geeky glamour and cosplay creativity to the performers who bring beloved characters to life in bold, breathtaking routines.

We dive into how the show has evolved over the years, what makes it a standout event at the con and how it balances fun, fandom, and fierce performances. Plus, May offers tips for first-time attendees, advice on how to support the performers, and a few surprises about what’s in store for 2025.

Whether you're a longtime fan or curious newcomer, this episode is your exclusive pass to one of Dragon Con’s most dazzling after-dark events!
