When Sam met fashion stylist and “Queen of the Scene" Donté McGuine at The Roxy in New York City several years ago, they became inseparable, and their meaningful friendship endures today. In this episode, Sam chats with Donté about how they found their people at New York City discos, what Donté learned from their first queer experience on a private jet in Las Vegas, and how having patience is key to surviving all of life’s ups and downs.
