Sobriety, Drag Race & Starting Over with Eureka O'Hara

In today’s episode of Highkey, Ry and Yvie are running on very little sleep, questionable vocal health, and pure Pride-season adrenaline. The two catch up on their packed schedules, Pride exhaustion, late nights, unexpected movie disappointments, and what it really takes to survive June as working queer people.

Then, they sit down with Eureka for a conversation about sobriety, addiction, drag, gender identity, and finding yourself again. Eureka opens up about getting sober, navigating recovery in a culture built around partying, and how drugs began impacting every aspect of her life.

She also reflects on her relationship with drag, transitioning and detransitioning, the impact of We’re Here, and why Drag Race ultimately changed her life for the better. If you’re HIGHKEY! vibing with us, come hang on Patreon!
