Baltimore Drag, Ceramics & The Gay Agenda with Tre Crawford aka MXBHVN!!!!
from #RockStarLife: Coffee Break · host Tre Crawford, MXBHVN
For this Coffee Break, I’m joined by Tre Crawford aka MXBHVN—a queer Baltimore-based artist, drag performer, and the mastermind behind The Gay Agenda, LLC. I’m totally obsessed with his work (seriously, I own like 10 of his ceramic mugs and candles because they’re everything), and today we’re diving into some messy, wild stories only two Baltimore Drag queens could tell.We kick things off with a juicy spill about a hater who came for my Paranormal Realm art exhibition (spoiler alert: they couldn’t handle it). Then we get into Tre’s roots in Havre de Grace, MD, surviving life as a queer person in a conservative small town in the late 2000s (we both are from Havre de Grace), how he built The Gay Agenda, LLC, and what it’s really like playing and creating in the fabulous world of Baltimore drag. From Grand Central tales to battle scars we got from our art, Tre is all about pushing limits for drag, and we’re going there.And, in true Zenobia Darling fashion, I made Tre watch my art film #RockStarLife: The Art of Drag, shot in Havre de Grace during the July 2023 drag show at The State Theater. You know I had to get his unfiltered thoughts, and trust—I'm spilling some never-before-heard behind-the-scenes tea from filming.Then, because we’re both John Waters stans, we dive into why Female Trouble is the ultimate John Waters masterpiece and why Waters himself is the OG punk queen of cinema, still inspiring us Baltimore drag queens to this day.We wrap things up with some witchcraft, art, drag, skincare (straight guys, take notes), DL guys on Grindr in Havre de Grace, and queer magic talk. Plus, we dish on why Drag Race and Dragula are sleeping on Baltimore’s drag scene, even though Dragula is literally inspired by it. Oh, and what it really means to start an LLC in Maryland and why you should be supporting queer artists.So grab a Gay Agenda mug, pour that coffee (or something stronger), and let’s get messy. ☕💅💥🔥Cover Art "Tre and Wendy"Support the show#RockStarLife: Coffee Break is in orbit between season two and season three, darlings. ☕⚡👽Season Three crash-lands during Hot Ghoul Summer 2026 — louder, trashier, more haunted, and legally questionable. 🔥💋Until then, expect rogue Espresso Shots transmitted directly from the alien void: paranormal chaos, reality TV psychosis, pop culture meltdowns, emotionally unstable glamour, and absolutely zero adult supervision. 🛸⚡ Season Three is sponsored by Odyssey Salon in Aberdeen, Maryland ⚡Book with me, Derek — aka Zenobia Darling — punk rock hairstylist, blonding menace, barber-cut assassin, and fashion color alchemist serving luxury blonding, vivid Danger Jones color, alternative hair design, and rockstar hair for the emotionally punk and aesthetically superior.Whether you want icy blonde bombshell, neon edgy disaster, or a killer fade, get your ass in my salon chair immediately for some Zenobia Darling hair magic.Call +1 410-272-5330 and ask for some Zenobia Darling magic. ✂️☕
