What would you do if a well-known RuPaul's Drag Race alum dares you to take your comedic bit from the Midwest to the South? Well, that's precisely what Michael Henry and Tim Murray did in OutTV's latest original, Wish You Were Queer. The series takes Michael and Tim to various destinations, where they learn about LGBTQ+ life and culture beyond West Hollywood's queer bubble."We really wanted to see what life was like outside of New York and LA," Michael told Out. The duo has previously performed in smaller cities, where they discovered the communities there were stronger than previously thought. "You know, people always think, oh, you have to go to New York, LA, Chicago, San Francisco to find a gay community, but no," he says.The series premiere opens with "the most successful business woman in the world," Trixie Mattel, meeting with them in between working on, well, business. "I'm a very busy businesswoman doing businesswoman stuff." As they settle in for the impromptu meeting, Trixie throws her computer into the pool. "Can somebody get me another computer?" she requests. "That one was trying to show me a Chris Pratt movie with, like, straight people driving cars.""Straight people," Trixie whispers with disapproval.Of course, this was a bit for the cameras. But in truth, Trixie supports all kinds of queer endeavors. "She's one of those who literally is just always championing others," Tim affirms to Out. Michael agrees with the statement: "She's been the best, you know. She's been along with us on this journey the whole timefrom when we started pitching this idea to filming it."Though the series has Michael and Tim exploring LGBTQ+ communities outside of West Hollywood, Wish You Were Queer showcases the friendship between the two. Comedy is chemistry, and the pair is basically like queer nitrogen and glycerin. So, what's the secret ingredient to their platonic chemistry?"We're very different in a lot of ways," Tim answers, admitting a possible rationale could be in Michael being the eldest child and Tim being the youngest. "But I think that's what makes our chemistry work so well."The cities they visit along their travels range from Columbus, Ohio, to Pensacola, Florida. Throughout their journey, they found communities and chosen families that made them feel seen, challenging assumptions about so-called 'Middle America.' "I felt very seen in Pensacola," Michael reflects, admitting he enjoyed meeting people from different walks of life and upbringings. Tim favored New Orleans and Louisville, though the latter has a place in his heart. "It's truly become one of my favorite cities," he beams."I really want us to play much more difficult rooms than we did this season," Tim replies when asked about their hopes for a second season. "It's the funniest thing when we're in a struggle!" Michael, meanwhile, wants to try unique venues. "Maybe in a nude resort," he retorts with a laugh, also mentioning a parking lot as an idea. "I think that watching us be challenged is very entertaining."You can catch up on the first season of Wish You Were Queer on OutTV's YouTube Channel. See on Instagram
