<![CDATA[Fringe & Filth]]>Welcome to Fringe & Filth — the unapologetically queer podcast from Pure Life Plus Productions where cabaret, kink, circus, theatre, nightlife, Fetish and LGBTQIA+ culture collide.

Hosted by producer, reviewer and professional instigator Brendon Ludlow, this is your backstage pass into the beautiful mess of fringe festivals, bold performance, kink and fetish, scene globally, creative carnage and the people making it all happen. From show reviews and artist interviews to hot takes, industry gossip and “what the hell did we just witness?” moments, nothing is off limits.

Smart, sharp, camp and occasionally unhinged, Fringe & Filth celebrates fearless artists, minority voices and the glitter-soaked corners of queer culture that deserve the spotlight.

Come for the theatre.
Stay for the gay shit.

In this episode of Fringe & Filth, I sit down with producer, mentor, creative leader, and dear friend Jared Hartford for an honest conversation about the art of making great shows happen. From the challenges of producing in an ever-changing arts landscape to the joy of championing artists and bringing stories to life, Jared shares the realities of life behind the curtain.

We explore friendship, mentorship, leadership, the intersection of queer, fetish, and performance communities, and what it means to build a life filled with purpose, creativity, and connection.

Whether you’re an artist, producer, theatre lover, or simply curious about the people who make the magic happen, this is a conversation about passion, community, and the pursuit of a fulfilled life.

Pull up a seat and step inside the producer’s mind with Jared Hartford.
