B
Well, I guess we. I guess we really need to revisit the first couple episodes of the show where you literally.
A
Yeah, the first. Five years ago. Five years ago. Get over it.
B
You haven't changed that much. Let's put it that way. Miriam, you haven't changed that much. Okay. You're not a whole new person.
A
It's five years ago.
B
You know, Also, I'm chewing my mouth with my mouth open because I have a sinus infection. I cannot breathe through my nose. So. Wow, Ableist.
A
So you have to chew with the.
B
I cannot chew with my mouth closed. I have a sinus infection.
A
You can't hold your breath for two seconds to chew. Is that bad?
B
I don't know how I like to properly masticate my food. I don't swallow my food after one chew and then swallow a jagged ass piece of food.
A
Also, Bob is acting like he's eating fucking pork rinds, y'. All. They are seaweed chips, bitch. A seaweed chip is softer than a fucking cotton candy soup. Seaweed. Isn't it seaweed?
B
You're saying seaweed chip.
A
A seaweed chip is softer than a fucking seaweed, nigga.
B
It's seaweed.
A
That's seaweed. It literally disintegrates on your tongue before your brain even has time to process what you're eating.
B
You are coming in hot today. I don't know what is going on.
A
You're coming in hot. Oh, my God, here she goes. I'm always coming hot when you're the one being wild and crazy.
B
You caught me. Eating is wild, y'. All. Eating is wild.
A
Eating into a microphone on a podcast when we have very nice microphones is wild. Absolutely it is. Back then we had those cheap ass yeti microphones.
B
We finally admit it.
A
Well, back then, we had them cheap ass yeti ones. They weren't real.
B
Well, that's the same microphones you use to record while on the road. That's the exact same microphone. We use them half the time.
A
That is dirty and cheap.
B
They're also not cheap microphones. They're actually kind of expensive. They are. No, we get it. You have more. You don't think anything is expensive. 500 bucks for you is nothing. I'm telling y' all right now. Yeti microphones are not cheap. Each microphone is like $120. Do what?
A
You must be getting a discount. They're like 1:75 when I get them.
B
That's cheap to you?
A
No, it's not. I literally just said three seconds ago, oh, Bob don't have his listening ears on. Y' all. Remember in school when they would say,
B
guys,
A
this nigga's spilling chips on his lap. Oh, my God, this is a ghetto.
B
Seaweed chips are very. Seaweed is very greasy. There's oil on them.
A
Greasy. You say seaweed chips, but I said seaweed.
B
Seaweed. It's seaweed.
A
Okay. Greasy.
B
Today we are reviewing RuPaul's Drag Race Season 8, Episode 3. Monet, did you get some more pleasure from watching me again?
A
The answer is no, not in this particular episode, but I'm sure it'll happen.
B
This is a shining episode for me. This is an episode that a lot of people have derived a lot of pleasure and joy from, actually. So it's so odd that you didn't get any.
A
Oh, have you done a survey?
B
A lot of people, they come to me at shows and they. This, this, this. This episode is one of. One of my most popular quotes in it.
A
What? Thirsty bitch?
B
No. Why do. Waste of time putting on this.
A
I would argue Thirsty Bitch is more popular than that, but, I mean, you would not.
B
It's not. I promise you it's not. This is. This is a guarantee in terms of, you know, you know, what's popular for you. And trust me, people come up to me all over the place, opening up their coats, asking why they put on this all the time.
A
What do you think is my most popular quote? Oh, God. Ok, this is for all the listeners who hate me.
B
I have a sinus infection. I know who.
A
Whatever that sound is, y'.
B
All.
A
Are they about to delete their subscription? They're about to fucking call the FBI because the Bob is about to put y' all hoes through it.
B
I have a fucking science page.
A
What do you want from me?
B
You want me to just not do a podcast? Have me to do it by herself? I mean, I'd love to. I would love the day off.
A
What do you think is my. What do you think is my most memorable quote from.
B
It's probably soak it up.
A
Yeah.
B
I can't tell if you're joking or if you. Or if you were, like, trying to be a bit. That's. You were like, what do you think bite is? Just soak it up. I mean, my most famous quote is. My most famous quote is not, you thirsty, bitch? I mean, this. My most famous quote is purse first. That's my most famous quote to this day. Yeah, And I said it in untucked.
A
Did you? But no, you said it you. On the last episode, you said you said it on untucked.
B
I said it first. I said it first in untucked. I first said it in untucked. But people know drag races, right?
A
Cause you walk into the room where
B
folks know her from. You have no idea where people know her from. They might know her from my song.
A
Do you watch? Okay. Do you follow Psionic or do you know their videos on TikTok? He always. They always do the video of them live with someone, and it's like. It's always half the screen, and they're always either like a country person, like a girl. It's always like. They're, like, always baiting people into these, like, weird.
B
Oh, Terry, Terry, Terry.
A
This person.
B
Yeah, I think his name is Terry.
A
That shit be funny. That shit is so funny to me. How do you know his name is Terry? Does it say his name is Terry on there?
B
Well, the fans know because whenever I went live one time I was live and he was live at the same time. I was like, please go live with Terry. And I kept like, who is Terry? Everyone could be like, go live with Terry. Please go live with Terry. And I was like, I really don't know who y' all talking about. And then I googled it, and they weren't live anymore. And we also weren't following each other. So we couldn't follow each other. We couldn't go live together.
A
Do you watch. Do you watch their videos? Like, have you ever watched one?
B
Not a whole one. I mean, I watched some of the YouTube. The TikTok. Like, the short TikTok was.
A
Yeah, yeah, the TikToks. It's always like, something like, so you.
B
Like.
A
They're always. Anyway, we're not gonna get into it. Since you don't watch it, you won't get it.
B
I love watching you try to recreate. Watch them when they try to retell jokes. That shit be tickling me so hard.
A
They're not joking. I was gonna.
B
Well, they be like. Cause he'd be.
A
I was gonna try to reenact you.
B
And then he goes, well, okay, this is Monet. Okay? So he'll be like, hi. And then the person will be like, hey. And then you just gotta see it. You just gotta see it.
A
Well, because you've never done it, so I don't know if you would be able to play into it. That's the problem.
B
Also, before we get started, you should also know that since you're checking stuff out. Monat, I hosted a standup special that's on Netflix right now. Came out on the 9th.
A
Yeah, I've seen Standout. Margaret Cho posted a clip of herself on there, so it was really funny. Trixie posted hers about being unrelatable, and she was talking about the rich people being, like, rich and famous and stuff like that. You haven't posted one, though. Why is that? Do you hate Netflix?
B
I post one tomorrow.
A
Oh, okay.
B
Yeah.
A
So today we're.
B
Why haven't you posted my clip? Why haven't you posted my clip?
A
Cause it's not me. It's you, nigga. Bitch. So how. So if it doesn't benefit you, you won't do it?
B
If it doesn't benefit you, you won't do it.
A
You want me to post your clip before you? Where does that make sense? What does that. Math. Math.
B
I'm just wondering. So if it doesn't benefit you, you won't do it? Yeah.
A
You know what you're saying exactly right, Bob. I've never done anything that doesn't benefit me, ever. And know that shit about me. If it don't benefit me, Monet ain't doing it. You know me. You know me. For years, you know you've been having.
B
You're being hyperbolic, but let's just see. Listen, anyone that Monet's ever done anything for, come forth in the comments. Someone, at least one person got to come forth by now, right?
A
No one will. No one will. Absolutely not.
B
So today, now, in the comments, if Monet has taken something from you, please comment now. That's what we're about to.
A
Oh, it's about to. Bitch, my cup runneth over. It's about to be a wrap on, like, Ronald on me. Anyway, so today we are recapping episode three of RuPaul's Drag Race season eight. And as y' all may or may not know, if you're just watching randomly, this first episode, this is the season that Bob was on, and Bob subsequently won. So this shall be interesting.
B
What do you mean, subsequently?
A
My God, why? What is this subtext you're reading into? What do you like? What are you so distracted?
B
I'm not distracted.
A
Subsequently.
B
Why is that? I got a text to the chain that you, me and Jacob are all on you. I got a text to the chain that you, me, and Jacob were all on.
A
Oh, well, do you know what I do when I'm at work? When I'm at work, I silence my notifications. Cause I'm a professional.
B
You smoke weed. You lean over and smoke weed.
A
You take your vape in, you lean
B
over and you smoke weed.
A
I hope we get a nice time.
B
You have nerve.
A
There is documented proof of you last episode of Fucking Watchery. This nigga talking about some.
B
What else do you do?
A
I did one.
B
What is. What else do you do? Monet, since we talk about stuff you do at work, let's talk about stuff.
A
I mean, nigga, you. The one last episode was eat on the podcast.
B
Also the last episode when it was like, last episode when they was like, I gotta get out of here. I have to do work, bitch. We at work, bitch.
A
What are you talking about?
B
Last episode when they was like, I gotta get out here. I have to do work, bitch. This is work.
A
Jacob fingers about to run off. Jacob is in. Jacob is in his little windows holding my son. I'm like, nigga, is you doing the fucking Tina Turner choreography rivalry? Bitch, is you. Is you Tina Turner now, bro, Baby,
B
Jacob is Tina Turner. Listen, we come back in the workroom, we just got Naysha. Not Naysha. Dax and Layla McQueen have just been double eliminated.
A
Thank God.
B
And this is the second time this has happened. First was Honey Mahogany and I believe Vivienne Pinay.
A
Oh, yes. Season six. Yes, yes, yes, yes.
B
And RuPaul has picked up her phone. So how fast can you get here? We're walking back in the room, and I actually forgot. I Have to tell you, when the
A
season happened, that was one of the things in the trailer. Everybody was like, oh, my God. Cause they put that little piece in the season eight super trailer. Everyone was like, I wonder what that was gonna be.
B
And when I. Whenever I watched see myself on the show, I was like, I forget how much different I look now than especially in drag. I'm like, I used to really do some crazy shit in drag, girl.
A
There definitely has been a major glow up from your time on season eight. I wouldn't say major. There definitely has been a glow up since your season eight to now. For sure, for sure, for sure, for sure.
B
Not this failed comedy. So I can't remember who wiped off the window message. They both got eliminated. I don't remember who wiped it off. But then we get the Ooh, girl over to the thing, and RuPaul goes, you don't gotta be humble to be America's next drag superstar. And the first thing I said was agreed. I forgot that I said that. I said it so quickly, too.
A
It was in here. Meet the Queens. Which was then decided.
B
I know, but it was the revolve that you don't have to be humble. Agreed. Well, and Meet the Queen. I said that I was humble. I said I was very humble as a bit. By this point, we had already filmed our Meet the Queens. Yes. We filmed our Meet the Queens after the first episode.
A
That was us, too. We did ours after the first episode. Anyway. Yeah, that's your thing. And then I would say I loved Rue's. I forgot. I mean, this is the third one we've seen. But Ru's little looks in his talking to y' all bit. This. This thing. He looks very pretty. Like, he looks very. Not saying he hasn't in other seasons, but this one particularly is striking to me.
B
This is also the last season to have Matthew Anderson on it.
A
Right, right, right, right, right. And then this was Raven. Ru comes in and he announces it was Layla. Where y'.
B
All.
A
I mean, everyone is, like, jumping, like, oh, my God.
B
Yay. Naysha.
A
Nathan, what did I say?
B
Layla.
A
Layla. Yeah, yeah, it's Naysha. Whereas everyone, like, obviously acid.
B
Wait, wait, wait. Before we do that, before we had to talk about something else. Before we do that, we need to talk about this mini challenge.
A
Did the mini challenge happen already? No, it wasn't. Didn't she do the mini challenge with y'?
B
All? Yes. No. Then she did not do the mini challenge. She did not do it. We did it, and then she joined us after the mini challenge.
A
I have Notes about the mini challenge. So you and these mini challenge looks. What is going on?
B
What do you mean? I'm not. I'm not trying to get in any amount of impressive drag frame. Mini challenge. We're not. You're not judged on your looks. I'm not going to get in any room, try to be any remote oppress. I'm not trying to do. You know, I heard girls used to, like, sneak back when the cameras were cut and add into their makeup. I'm not doing that shit. What is the point? It's mini drag. It's supposed to be messy. Y' all hoes trying. Y' all trying too hard. Y', all, y'.
A
All.
B
There's a lot some bitches think, yeah, let's pull up some Monet mini challenge looks. We can see how stunning she looks. Honey.
A
The first season 10,
B
sure. I don't remember like you did. I wasn't there. But I do feel like all y' all who are trying so hard to look good at mini challenge, I just don't know what you're doing it for. Like, it must be for yourself.
A
Like, it's for the cameras, just for the experience, the vibe of being on Drag Race, giving it my all.
B
You know, I would say I really liked my vibe of being on Drag Race. I thought it did a good job and I. And I thought that it was a. It was a very successful run. So I'm very proud of how I did Drag Race.
A
Me, too.
B
In your opinion, which girl consistently looked
A
the most stunning in her mill in
B
the mini challenge looks all season? All drag accessory. Who has consistently served the best mini challenge looks? Ooh, like, I got you. I mean, Ms. Cracker often looks pretty good. Her many challenge looks, but she also would try to be. She would be in padding. She would be, like, really going very far to look good. I'm like, y' all are doing too much. It's just a mini challenge, y'.
A
All.
B
They're not judging you on your looks. That's not the point of the mini challenge.
A
Yeah, Cracker would. Cracker would go all off in mini challenge. But Cracker also just. Cracker says it. She doesn't like how she looks out of drag. So anytime Cracker gets a chance of being dragged. Bitch, Cracker's gonna do drag. She's going to go all out. She's going to do the fucking thing.
B
It's a lot. I. I don't have it in me, and I'm not interested in doing it. And I think that, you know, things worked out for me without doing it. So I'm glad. I'm happy with how I did things. But what we did was. So Cynthia Lee Fontaine comes out and she. Okay, you guys don't realize I was laughing at Cynthia's character for probably three or four people. Like, Cynthia sometimes is a little bit unaware, and she says the wildest stuff and she makes jokes, but sometimes I don't think that she even realizes the joke that she's told. Maybe she does. Maybe it's brilliant. I just don't know.
A
You know what I mean?
B
But when she said I made. She made a landmark decision to legalize sex. I don't know why that shit took me out so hard, but I was fucking dying. I also forgot that Kimchi said a lot of very offensive things that they cut out of the thing. I mean, a lot. It was wild.
A
I mean, like. Like how it's. I mean, it's hers to make fun of. That's like, if you put the N word in a part, like, I can't believe Bob did that. That is offensive. He should take that out. You know? Was it that kind of stuff?
B
I don't think it's the same as a black person saying N word and a black person saying, black folks love eating chicken and watermelon. Big lipped niggas love chicken. That is obviously intentionally offensive. I think the purpose of it, even if you're black, even if you're black, the intention is to be offensive. And Kim had a lot of. I mean, they aired one that she got her law degree from the law school of Ching Chang and Chung.
A
I love. Ru was like, I did not write this shit. I did not write this. Don't send me no.
B
And it was basically. It was a lot of that. Basically, it was like, a lot of that. I was like, this is wild.
A
Or Kimberly Chai. Kimberly Chai tea latte.
B
And then Nami Smalls wins the. The mini challenge.
A
I thought Thorgy looked really cute. I think Thorgy did a. Like, Thorgy did a really good job with mini challenge. I love how she decorated her robe. And I. Thorgy was my favorite. I thought she looked great because she had a little wig on
B
drag. Naomi. We all had wigs on.
A
Rue critiqued Naomi. She was. He was like, you didn't even use, like. Because her thing was tongue popping. And she did it once. He was like, you only did it once. And she was like, oh. Like, he literally critiqued her that she didn't do the thing.
B
Listen, Ru likes what she likes. On Monet's Drag race. Storji can win. So then RuPaul. Then after this, after we find out that Naomi Smalls wins, she announces that the girl she's bringing back is Naomi Smalls. I really think only Cynthia will show. What'd I say? Cynthia Smalls. What'd I say? You said Naomi Smalls is Naysha Lopez. Only Cynthia Leefontaine. Cynthia was the only one jumping up and down. It was not everyone. It was just Cynthia.
A
Cynthia really admires Naysha. Like, from episode one, Naysha, she's like, oh, my God. Naysha Lopez. So Cynthia really likes Naysha. Cause she's also. She's from the South. I'm sure Cynthia probably did pageantry and that circuit. And, you know, Naysha's really respected, and she won continentals, so that makes sense.
B
Yeah. And they're also both Puerto Rican. They have a history. They've connected, so they had a lot in common. And Naysha is just a very well respected drag queen in terms of pageantry. She's very, very well respected, and she's beautiful. She was my guest on Piss up, actually. And a lot of us were like, why? A lot of us were like, why?
A
Yeah, they want to do something to spice it up. I think this is, you know, since season three, Dragas has brought a girl back. And, you know, as someone who was not into running, I wasn't bothered by it. I wasn't. I was. I wasn't. Yeah, I thought it was fine.
B
Who's brought back your season?
A
Eureka. Well, from day one, they brought her back from the season before.
B
No, but during the season, it's different when it leaves and comes back during the season.
A
Uh, your mic just did this weird thing. Um, I don't. No one got. No one in the season. No one got eliminated and came back. No, that didn't happen our season.
B
Yeah. So anyway, Naysha Lopez is back, back, back again. And we find out that we are going to be doing the Ruko's Empire Challenge, which is a. Basically a spoof on Empire, the show with Taraji P. Henson and Terrence Howard.
A
And then because Naomi and Jussie Smollett. Yeah, Jussie Smollett. Jussie Smoye. Correction. And Ru makes. The girls are gonna be two teams. He makes Naysha be Team Captain 1 and Naomi Team Captain 2. And I was kick acted. And they only chose Robbie Turner first. And that says to me that maybe the temperature in the room, like, everyone thought that Robbie was gonna be fierce competition, or Robbie was really good at acting, which I would say Robbie is a good queen. I think Robbie's just a little nutty. But Robbie seems like they would be good in a challenge like this. With their background that they boasted about,
B
you would think so, but I don't think Robbie excelled in any of the challenges like this. And I think that you'd be wise to think that a lot of us thought that a lot of us really thought Robbie was going to be a threat. We really, really, really did. We all thought that. But then she showed pretty soon that she's not. Like, she.
A
She.
B
She kind of flopped in everything except
A
lip syncing, to be honest, which we'll get back to.
B
Like, she didn't do well in the. She didn't do well in Snatch Game. She didn't do well in Ruko. She just did not do very well in general.
A
Yeah.
B
God bless her soul.
A
Bless her heart. And Naysha chose Derek first. I was like. I mean, I didn't. Again, I don't know what the temperature was, like, what y' all were thinking, but I would. I would not think that Derek was going to be this fierce competition if I was there. I'd be like, okay, not first for the. For the action.
B
No, Derrick, that's a good choice. I think that's a smart choice. Derek is. Derek is usually, in acting challenges, pretty good. Like in Snatch Game and in our political campaign, she did a pretty good job.
A
I mean, now that I know Derek outside of the show, yes. I can attest that I think Derek is good. But in, like, this, your season, like, watching it, as a fan, I would not have thought Derek would have been good in a challenge, but I guess, you know, you would know better than I. I was a fucking mayor.
B
But then. So the last girl picked up, uh, dead last, is Acid Betty. No one chose Acid Betty.
A
Why would they? She's the. The challenge before, she was a mean monster. She was so rude and nasty. Why would people want her on their team? That makes sense.
B
Yeah. Well, she got. She ended up being on the team with Kim Chi, Naysha Lopez, Thor G. And Derrick Berry, which is. So as we're rehearsing, Chi Chi says something that really tickled me. She goes, I would be nervous if I was there, because they got a bunch of people that are just not black.
A
Yeah. She said. I wrote it down. She said, the other team, you should be worried. They have people who aren't black.
B
They have a lot of girls that are just not black. That really tickled me pink. That shit. Really. I was like. I mean,
A
but like. And here's the Thing like, you're on Drag Race. What are you supposed to say? I'm not comfortable doing the challenge. No, but you got to do the challenge. And, like, it is what it is, you know?
B
Yeah. I mean, it is wild. I mean, she was asking Kim to do a lot more blackness.
A
Oh, yeah. And Faith Evans was like,
B
in the challenge, Cynthia's wearing my hair, Derek's wearing my hair, and acebetty's wearing my coat.
A
What. What hair did. Oh. Derek had that black afro as the. Betty was wearing your hair.
B
That's the hair I wore in the last episode. Cynthia had a blonde afro that I had not worn yet. And we'll get to the challenge. Was wearing my coat.
A
I have a lot of thoughts when we get to the challenge. I have a lot of thoughts about the lurks from the acting challenge. Now y' all get to the.
B
Y', all, what are your thoughts?
A
Well, we're going to get to the acting challenge.
B
Yet.
A
When y' all were dividing up, when y' all got into your groups and y' all were choosing roles, did you have to audition for your role?
B
No, we just read through, and then we just kind of said what we wanted, and Naomi delegated and was pretty much letting us do it on our own terms.
A
Work. Work.
B
So there was no arguing or anything at all.
A
You think if you and Thorgy were on the same team, y' all would have. Y' all would have been fighting for the same role?
B
No, because Thorgy wasn't. If you remember, Thorgy wasn't even chocolate chip cookie first.
A
Oh, yeah. They took it from Kim and gave it to Thorgy.
B
Exactly. Cause Thorgy was Nilla Wafer, the bougie girlfriend.
A
I mean, and this episode was the birth of the original, the OG Sibling rivalry between Bob and Thorgy. This is when it all started. It was all a dream.
B
You think so?
A
Yeah, clearly. This is when it started. This episode. Thorgy was like. When she found out y' all doing the same role, she said, a sound bite. I forgot what the sound bite was. But basically saying, like, I know I can do better than Bob.
B
I can't remember the sound bite, but it was. I think it was along the lines of, like, maybe it was like, oh, no, now the competition's gonna be on. I don't think it was like, I wanna be better than. But I was like. It was like the competition is all, or something like that. Because. But also. Which is funny. Cause I had the role before Thorgy had it.
A
Yeah. We also did the same thing in Drag Race. Do you Remember? Oh, this is a good question. Do you remember how long y' all had from learning from getting lines to doing it in the challenge? Like, how long did y' all have?
B
Maybe 12 hours.
A
Oh, really?
B
Maybe. Yeah, we shot the next day, I think.
A
Oh, bitch. Not season 10. Season 10 for fucking breast World. We got it that morning. We filmed it that afternoon.
B
You know, that might be what happened. Cause honestly, I honestly don't remember. I can't remember if we. It actually probably was the same day because I don't think we got dragged twice. Honestly, I don't remember. I really don't remember. I have no clue. I do not remember at all if it was the same day or if it was a different day. Maybe we can judge it off of someone's makeup who changes their makeup up a lot. Because I. Yeah. I do not remember at all. Oh, at all.
A
Oh, at all. Work. And so then we get.
B
Any other thoughts from the rehearsal?
A
No, Every. I mean, well. Oh, the Acid Betty's team or not Acid Betty's team. Naysha's team. They do seem like they, like, with Kim trying to do the black scent and Betty being a little curmudgeon and being a little mean. Y. I thought that they were struggling to challenge because of those factors. And Thorgy's trying to compete with you, but we'll talk about it. They ended up not.
B
But I thought that they were also fun fact. Kim never learned how to tongue pop. They added that tongue pop in post.
A
Oh, really?
B
Yeah. Cause they made it sound like him learning how to tongue pop. She never did. She just kept going, and they would just add it in. Mm. Is that crazy?
A
That is. Cause I. If I. It sounded like she was doing it. It didn't sound like it was manufactured.
B
They also put a little tongue pop in her video in the trailer as well. And the actual, like, season eight trailer, Kim Chi does a tongue pop as well.
A
Work. Kimberly Chi T. A little fun fact for you. See, I got into the challenge, and for off the bat, Betty's wig. Betty's wig. What is this wig? Why this wig? That shit looks.
B
I mean, she's playing little spikes. I don't. I don't know why she's wearing that wig. I don't get it.
A
Yeah, that wig is wild. I think Kim looks good. Kim with this, like, soft makeup, I think is very cute. And the asymmetrical bob is cute. I dig everyone's looks pretty much. Besides Betty's hair, who else? Who was you?
B
Like Derrick Barrett's look? What was Derek's look, the turtleneck and Afro.
A
Oh, I didn't hate it. I was like, whatever. It was just a black turtleneck and a thing. It wasn't bad. It wasn't good. It was just like, normal whatever.
B
Not the black power.
A
It was very Black Panther.
B
That's. I think that was the go, which is kind of. I was like, looking back at old stuff, you're like, this is wild.
A
We didn't know better's dress was really cute, though.
B
2016. Thor's dress was very cute, though. I like Thor's dress a lot. I would never wear the outfit I wore in the challenge today.
A
Never. The Katsu. The fully. The stone tattoo.
B
Yeah, I would. I would wear a stone catsuit, but not, like, not that. Like, I would want it done a little bit better. Also, that thing smelled like cigarettes. Cause the guy who stoned it from me just smoked. I mean, chain smoked.
A
Yeah, yeah.
B
While stoning it.
A
Yeah. Oh, I thought that. I thought that Robbie Turner looked like Diane Keaton in. What's the movie? You don't First Wise Club. She looks like Diane. She just missing the glasses. I was like, what is this look? And again, I know she was playing a schizo character, but I was getting very Diane Keaton for sure.
B
I can see that. I can see that now. Let's. So we are wearing roller skates on the Runway. So listen, so RuPaul. I forgot that RuPaul wore roller skates. You know she loves roller skating.
A
I know RuPaul loves roller skating. Yes.
B
Well, I don't know. You like roller skating? You can roller skate?
A
Yeah, I can roller skate. I can roller skate and rollerblading. I prefer rollerblading.
B
I do not like either of those things. And as you can tell, I do not know how to do either of those things. Honey, what do you think of RuPaul's look?
A
I think RuPaul looks great. Obviously, I wish he had shoes on. But, I mean, it made sense for the challenge. I mean, also, bitch, they could have made Pay the PA or Zaldi could have cut out the pattern and put it on their fucking roller skates so they match seamlessly with Ru's look or gotten pink ones. A compliment or something. Like, somebody could have made Ru's skates match his outfit.
B
Girl, Ru probably decided to wear those skates last month. She's probably like, stop. You are in a tumultuous relationship with your fucking home system.
A
Oh, wait, really quick before we get to this. I remember they cut back to the workroom, and I remember you trying to make this car before you left. And you were. You're like, you know what? I can't finish this at home. I'm gonna bring it with me, and I'm gonna finish it there. And I was. I remember when I saw the previews for the challenge, I was like, oh, shit, Bob is gonna. So when I saw the. Cause they showed you a little stumble in the silver outfit you ended up wearing, and I thought, oh, my God, he got it done, and he transformed into it, and he wore that down the thing.
B
No, that did not happen. I was not able to get it finished. It was very, very hard to do. Some girl on Drag Race says Pluggie did it, and she did it very, very well. So I'm glad I.
A
So good. Serena T. Did it. At Bushwick, I believe it was Serena
B
T. And she really killed it work. But also, a couple of people have done this, and it looked really good and better than I could have done it. So kudos to them.
A
I didn't know that you were gonna try to make wheels too. I thought you. I. I remember. I thought you had the wheel. I don't think. I think nobody trying to make wheels. Bitch. Who is you, Fred Flintstone,
B
bitch. I was desperate and trying to figure out how to not skate down this fucking Runway. And, of course, Betty was being a full monster about the whole situation.
A
I know. She was like, I can't wait to see Bob. Bobby kind of trying to make an outfit that he can't complete. Amyquills. Ugh. I can't wait to see how that turns out.
B
That's all.
A
I think. I love it. Betty's a fucking monster bitch.
B
What do you think? Everyone's looks.
A
Let's get into the looks.
B
Oh, really? Quick, Naysha Lopez, before we talk about the looks.
A
Fucking. This was back before when they said Tasha Smith. I forgot Tasha Smith. And when I see Tasha Smith, I immediately think of her on Top Model Season 2, where she was so mean to Camille on Top Model Season 2, if you don't know, did you watch Top Model season?
B
What did she say?
A
Cause Camille was this girl, this black. Just this black girl. Now watching it, in hindsight, people were being so microaggressive towards Camille, right? Camille was this black girl from New York. She's Jamaican. And Camille could have been a little, like, mean sometimes, but Camille used to keep to herself, and he always be so mad at her. And this girl named Joanna used to fucking poke her buttons all the time. So they do this one challenge. Tasha Smith. It was an acting challenge. Tasha Smith. Was their coach, right? And Camille, the night before they went out, they all went out to go eat. And Camille. And Camille's like, I'm really, like, allergic to stuff. And they're like, no, Camille, come on. Like, just engage the group. Come on, come on, please, like, eat this stuff with us. So she eats this fucking thing. She ended up being allergic to the thing that they all had for dinner. So the next morning, this bitch wakes up, Bob. Lips the size of fucking pillows, right? Eyes red, swollen, and she's sitting at the dinner table, at the breakfast table, trying to eat her porridge. And they were like, no one is at it. They're like, what's wrong with you? She's like, I had an allergic reaction. They're like, anyway, blah, blah, blah. Camille's being extra again. Camille's just being so extra. So the production sends Camille to a fucking. They just put her in a fucking cab and sent her to a pharmacy to go fix herself while the rest of the girls go to the challenge. The girls are in this acting challenge, and Tasha Smith is, like, making them, like, pull on stuff they like. They're, like, crying. People are sobbing like their dad's left them, like, all this stuff. Like, they're pulling on stuff in the challenge, right? So Camille walks into the challenge, and, like, everyone is deep in their acting work, sobbing, and Camille walks in, like, lips swollen, fucking allergic. Like, fucked up. And then Tasha Smith, they make her do, like, one exercise in. And Tasha, she's like, stop. Stop. Camille, what is wrong with you? Why can't. Why. Why can't you be like everyone else? Why can't you?
B
Why.
A
Why can't you let things go? You need to, like, step outside, like. Like, yelling at. I was like, this bitch is having an allergic reaction. She has not done this exercise. She is, like, on the verge of tears, and it was just so mean. So every time I see Tasha Smith, I think about her and Top Model and how she really did Camille. Dirty justice for Camille.
B
I have no comments on any of that because I did not see any of it, but that was quite the recounting of that story,
A
Bob. Oh, my gosh. Should we start doing a.
B
That was a five minutes we will never get back.
A
Should we start doing a Top Model review podcast?
B
No.
A
No.
B
The answer is no. I have no desire to do that
A
egg and junction with Shea Koolaid.
B
And if you want to see it, you can go. I would say if you want, you can go listen to Shea Coulee's Top Model podcast called Wanna be on Top but, no, that does not speak to me. I do not like Top Model like that. Why?
A
All right, the looks.
B
Naysha Lopez. I just don't like the show. I don't wanna talk about Top Model. I can't talk to you about Top Model. We haven't spent the last six minutes talking about.
A
You're so extra. It was not six minutes.
B
Okay, now, we don't exaggerate. Fierce. Can we talk about Drag Race? I just wanna know if we can talk about the episode. That's what I just wanna know.
A
Let's talk about the fucking episode.
B
You're not able to do a whole episode. We'll do a whole episode of Drag Race about Top Model and its impact on the beauty industry.
A
A whole episode of Drag Race about Top Model.
B
A whole episode of Slim Rivalry, episode of our podcast. We have an episode of our podcast down the Line of Civil Rivalry about Top Model and its Impact on the beauty industry. Does that sound good to you? That sounds like a good compromise to me.
A
No, I don't want to talk about Top Model. Let's talk about these looks, though. First up, Naysha Lopez.
B
Her body looks so good.
A
This look was fucking great. I think she looks great. It takes me right back to the 70s. She has that Farrah Fawcett. I don't know what you call that out. Court curls. I don't know what. It's a Farrah Faucet style. And flips. Yeah, the flips. There we go. And then she has. I love the fabric that she used to accent the collar, the belt, and these kind of spat stocking, legging things she has on. Naysha looks. This is such a cute look. She looks fucking great. She looks great.
B
Yeah. Now, you'll notice that a lot of us are wearing the exact same roller skates because they provided us some there. Those are also the same roller skates that RuPaul was wearing. So that's why I say RuPaul probably just grabbed those skates and was like, I'm gonna do it with these skates. Cause she got. She obviously had shoes. You know what I mean? But anyway, yeah, this Naysha looks so good. Her body looks great. Her legs are. Bam. Like, this is wild.
A
Yeah, Naysha looks really good. She has a. You can see a little. Yeah, Naysha looks great. She's not wearing nails, though. Points off. No, I'm kidding. This is back before. Everybody's wearing nails all the time
B
now. Thorgy is fun fact. I sold Thorgy this leotard for $5.
A
Did you really? At a drag swap Sale.
B
Yes, I did swap. Yep. So did this for $5. And that's not a real headset. She like, she like made a headset out of something. I don't know what she used.
A
Oh wow. Really?
B
They look like headsets. Yeah.
A
Oh, I would have thought it was real headsets that she just bought and like threw some stones on or something. I think. No, I like Thorntee's vibe. Again, I get this, it's very. I get the air going forward and I love the addition of the socks. It's very. At the time, the outfit is a little simple. Not a little simple, but it's very simple. Just a leotard and some ill fitting shorts. So. But I do love now that I know that she made these fucking headphones. That's fucking dope. Because it really sells the fantasy and the hair. I just wish that she did something inside besides the shorts. The shorts are what's fucking fucking it up for me.
B
Also Ross called it an afro. I was like, that's not an afro.
A
Yeah, it's not an afro.
B
Not Ross Carson. I love this Afro.
A
And I was like, that's not an Afro. Well, you know, I mean, I know what I consider an afro. But what is like, like, like, what is like the definite like, like what? Like, like what makes hair an Afro?
B
Oh, let's see. I can't believe we're looking at the Afro definition. Afro.
A
I mean, obviously we know.
B
So it says natural, kinky or tightly curled. A hairstyle in which hair which is naturally kinky or tightly curled hair is styled in such a way as to stand out all around the head.
A
And hers is just what, like a base wig with this pop on top of it
B
probably. I mean, I really get up in there to look at it. You know what I mean? But yeah, I don't know. I don't, I don't love this look. The look is fine. I don't love it. But the look is perfectly fine.
A
Yeah, it's fine. Derrick Barry,
B
who they kept calling Katy Perry and I was like, she doesn't look anything like Katy Perry. They kept calling her Katy Perry.
A
I was like, but the outfit is.
B
She does not look like Katy Perry.
A
This is a, this is a reference to a Katy Perry look. I'm pretty sure. I think that's what, I don't think it is. I'm pretty sure she had like a.
B
Maybe it is. They kept saying Katy, like hold on, Katy Perry. Like a bubble dress. I mean, maybe it's like Katy Perry with pink hair on a. In the cloud.
A
And like album of Teenage Dream. Yeah.
B
Katy Perry. I don't think Katy Perry ever wore this dress. And this,
A
I think, I think fucking this bitch Derek said it. She said, I'm living my Katy Perry teenage dream or something like that. Like, she, like she said it.
B
I still don't think she looked like Katy Perry. Even, even if Katy Perry said it. Bitch. She don't look like Katy Perry to me. Go to Kimchi.
A
I can't wait, hold on. I can't wait, hold on.
B
Are we still talking about Derrick Brandon's Katy Perry dress? What? What?
A
Just the way you are talking. This shit is sending me. It's sending me over. You just sound like a little. You sound like. You sound like you talk a little kid. Like you, you sound like a little snot nose kid. And every, every couple of minutes you go,
B
this how you sound. Super. That's you,
A
that's you. Up next, up next, Kim Chi. Okay, when did, when Kim wore this. I remember I was working at Pisa's bar when Kim wore this outfit.
B
The.
A
Everyone went up, right? Everyone's like, this is dope. Now looking at. Now it can't just. It just looks like a corset, broad panties with like feathers on, like the, the thing. But not like covering everything. Like looking at it now in 2022.
B
Right? Yeah. I think that they also, I think a lot of people just made their minds up that Kim Chi was a fashion queen. So no matter what she wears, they were going to love it regardless. She said it was a jug Galliano thing. And I was like, everything doesn't need to be a reference to a thing. Why are you taking joy in my pain?
A
Not taking joy. It's just you are.
B
So what is this laughter then? If it's not joy, what is this laughter?
A
It is bliss. I'm not taking joy. I'm taking bliss. Wow.
B
She's a lot about your character.
A
Yeah. So I mean, again, I love like the whole. I remember the photo shoot that came posted for like, it's dope. But looking at this picture on the main stage, like, like her, her bra is exposed and like her, her pussy is out. Like just the underwear. So I would have maybe covered that up a little bit more with feathers.
B
Yeah. I don't, I don't personally love this look, but it was very well received. I will say that it was very well received.
A
People loved it. People really loved it.
B
I ace Betty's look has some elements that I like. I like the shoulder, the hair, the I thing, the skates. I do not love this. This black diaper she's wearing.
A
Yeah, the black diaper. And the courts would have been fine if the bottom was nicer, but the diaper is really not the thing. But I agree with you. I love the arm. I love the hair. I love how she put those aluminum spikes in the hair, too. That looks really cool. Yeah, I wish they would have. I wish she would have just changed the diaper. She could have done, honestly, one of those, like, roller derby skirts. That would have been fierce because it's giving me very, like, roller derby warrior person. So that would have been dope. I don't know why she would have gone for Ruffle Pamper.
B
Yeah, I will say that. Kim and Naomi. We're going to go to Naomi now. This has nothing to do with roller skating. I mean, nothing. They're just wearing outfits and roller skates. Right. But Naomi, like, if I'm wrong, Speaker's bit, you're bit. Okay, roller skater, here's the thing.
A
But did your outfit have to do with roller skating or do you just have to just have add roller skates to your look? Oh, what was the prompt?
B
Do you remember your prompt? It was supposed to be a roller. Yes. It had to, like, have roller skates. And it wasn't just get in drag and then put on roller skates. You had to incorporate the roller skates into your look. That's why everyone's dressed like they are.
A
Got it.
B
Except these two. Also, Nami's feet look massive.
A
Huge feet. I know,
B
girl. These are some fucking sidewalk slappers. Some concrete crushers, bitch. Her feet are huge.
A
It's very La Cianica Boulevard in Proud Family when she took off her shoes and everyone saw how big her feet were. But then she took those same big feet and she won the swimming competition. So it was really a joke on them because she was fierce
B
and they would take those big feet all the way to the bank, girl.
A
Yes, you did.
B
Let's go do the most iconic look of the fucking. Okay.
A
Talk about bitch. You just took a robot outfit and slapped some skates on yours. What's your point?
B
I just realized, bitch, yours is not
A
about rollerblading the same thing you tried to come for. Kim Chi and Naomi did the same thing. It's Tron.
B
It is. It's Tron, bitch.
A
Get the fuck up out of here. Bob,
B
first of all, I won this fucking challenge in this outfit. You could literally never. Let's make that clear.
A
Yeah, you're right. I would never wear that. Correct.
B
Yeah. You could never fucking ever wear this outfit. And Win this fucking challenge, bitch. Let's make that clear. My outfit was Tron inspired, and Carson Kressland said he loved it. What of it? Does Tron wear roller skates?
A
Tron does not wear rubber skates.
B
They're all, like, skating.
A
They're not skating.
B
They're, like, blading or something.
A
This nigga don't even know it.
B
Oh, well, it's Tron. I didn't say. I said Tron inspired. Someone on Tron's got to be rollerblading somewhere.
A
And y', all, let me tell you something.
B
All about all of is a Krasn girl is a style superstar. Who are. Who are you? What are you? Every single superstar.
A
One of Bob's friends from New York City, circa this time. Remember this fucking yellow belt, y'? All? This nigga would be dressed in an outfit, ready to go out the door, and would reach in his closet for no reason and grab this fucking yellow belt and put it on y'.
B
All.
A
Let's go back to old bitches. The father, he would fucking throw this belt on every outfit for literally no reason.
B
What of it? And won the challenge, Bitch, that belt was booked and blessed. Honey, when I saw that belt had more gigs than you back in 2015, honey, when we.
A
When that fucking shit came on the TV in pieces, I audibly. I had, like, a physical reaction. I was like, I cannot believe this bitch took this belt to Drag Race and wore it for no reason on the challenge.
B
And one. And look. And reminder. Kostya Kressley loved the look. Style icon, superstar. He's not icon of the original Fab Five.
A
Oh, the original. So now you're trying to say JVN and Tay and Karamo, they're like. They're shit. They don't mean nothing because they're not the original ones. That's a very disgusting view.
B
That is verbatim what I said.
A
I know. Yes, we read the subtext, baby. We read the subtext subsequently. We did.
B
Anyway. So do you like my look or not?
A
No, I don't like this look.
B
Wow. And the body is.
A
I will say your body looks. I mean, your body always looks great from episode one. Your body is always smashed. You pad and you do your body very well. We know this about you, but this look is not it.
B
We know the head of the. Let's go to Cynthia Lefontaine. Cynthia Leafontaine is probably wearing one of the worst outfits in the history of Drag Race. This might be the worst outfit that. History of Drag Race.
A
So bad. Bad. Like, it's so Bad. It's so bad, Bob. And none of y'. All. None of y' all try to help her out.
B
There's. That's not true. That's not true. We actually did try to. Okay, so what y' all don't see this? Cynthia lefontaine is wearing a pair of Nike shorts, and she rhinestone the Nike check. Uh, but not fully. Like, it was kind of weird how she did it. But what makes it really weird is she had a pair of matching pants that goes with the top.
A
So why did she not wear it?
B
Pair of pants that. And we all said where that she goes, no, I think I'm gonna wear the shorts instead. We were all like, we think you should wear the pants. And she just chooses not to wear them.
A
That is such a bizarre thing to do. I'm very confused. Why would she. Why? Like, what? Doesn't make any sense. And that's in her home.
B
Very, very strange.
A
That's in her home.
B
Very, very strange.
A
Wow.
B
Also, let's go to Chichi Devane.
A
So good.
B
I. Do you like this look?
A
Oh, I love this look 100%. I feel. I love this look. I love that she. That she got covers to match her to make it one cohesive look. And I love it. I love the neon and the green. And having her up in that Afro puff, I think it's very. I think it's a very cute look.
B
I don't. I don't like the. I think it's the shorts I don't like. She made those covers there, though. I remember that. And this was her neon look. This was Chi Chi's neon look. So later on the neon challenge, she. I think she made that neon challenge
A
there, which is so weird, because what she ended up wearing for. What she ended up wearing for the neon challenge, I wish she could have worn it with there just here and just made boot covers to match that. And doubt it felt more fully cohesive. So what a strange choice.
B
But, yeah, this. This. Yeah. Let's go on to Robbie Turner. I love this look.
A
Is very. I think she looks very good too. It fits all the proms. But I agree with Michelle. Why all this silver and just throwing a gold chain? Like what?
B
I agree. That is a very, very strange choice. But she looks very good. And this bitch can fucking roller skate. Like, this bitch can motherfucking roller skate her ass off. It's crazy.
A
Yeah, she was doing triple axels and shit. I was like, wow.
B
Yeah, she. So we go into the episode now. We go into. Watch our challenges. What did you think of Naysha, Steve?
A
I like Naysha's team. I forgot Thor did a really good job in this challenge. I mean, I remember liking it then, too, watching it again. I think she's really good. One of my favorite moments of her is when she takes off the jumpsuit, and then she is like, now, now, somebody come get this orange shit off my body. And to me, just something funny about Yuna's big, dramatic villain making one of these little kids take it off. I thought it was really good. Her physical comedy was really good. How she was doing that. The broom fighting. I thought. I thought Thorgy, she was the standout of that group, for sure.
B
Broom. Yeah, I agree. I like when she walked away and hit Naysha over the head with her coat.
A
That was really good.
B
Yeah, Thorgy did a very good job. Thorgy did a very, very good job. She really did. She killed it.
A
Yeah. Yeah, I agree.
B
And Robbie was really. Robbie. Well, Robbie was on my team. Never mind.
A
Who was a Robbie equivalent? Oh, Acid was her version on that team. And, yeah, Acid they liked. They liked what Acid did?
B
Well, Acid Beta was. She was better than Robbie, I'll say that.
A
Work.
B
And Robbie was pretty bad. Robbie was pretty bad.
A
Yeah.
B
What do you think of about Naomi's team?
A
I think that you were the obvious, obviously the standout Ferrari. You. You obviously did a lot of improv. You did a lot of improv stuff in yours, which made yours really funny. And the water stuff. Did you. You obviously asked Naomi first to throw vodka in her face, right?
B
Well, I think it was in the script to throw vodka in her face. Maybe I asked her, but I don't think I asked her if I could throw water on her head when she was passed out. I think I did that without. I think I may have done that one without permission.
A
Damn. But it was really funny. I thought Naomi was good, too, but you were the best one on your team, and. Yeah, and I think that.
B
I don't think Cynthia was that bad.
A
I mean, I don't think she was that bad, too, but I also didn't think Robbie was that bad either. Maybe in the room it felt like.
B
No, Robbie was bad.
A
Well, watching it.
B
Robbie was bad.
A
Like, watching it, I didn't. I wasn't like, oh, my God, Robbie's really bad. I didn't feel that way about her at all in the thing. And I will say that when fucking. Who was it? I forgot. Oh, Derek. Derek was on your team?
B
No, no, Cynthia was on my team.
A
They were the same role, though. Cynthia definitely was the Better of that role than Derek, in my opinion. So, yeah.
B
Also, not to mention that little part where they had to, like, where Naysha and Chi Chi's character were, like, rapping. They had to write that rap themselves. And that song that they sing. That. Yes. And the song that Derek and Cynthia sang while coming out, they had to write those songs too.
A
Really? They should get extra points for that. That's a lot to do. Write a song too.
B
So Cynthia wrote the I am sickity, I am gorgeous. She wrote that work. Which also why Chi Chi wrote an actual rap. And Naysha just went, rakka katee kaka ti ta ta I' ma rap. But she never actually rapped.
A
Got it work. Yeah. I think Cynthia's outfit probably put in the bottom. And I thought you and Thorgy were both good. I thought maybe your outfit edged you a little bit more to put you to win.
B
Not Esme. Not Esme.
A
Don't you like Esme?
B
As the judges are critiquing us as the judge, this is when Michelle says to Derrick Barry, we need you to give more soul. And later down the line, Derrick Barry was less than like, the judge want more soul. Maybe I should start twerking. And then I remember me being like, they're not asking you to act black, Derrick. They're just asking you to like.
A
She said this in the episode in Untucked.
B
It was either in Untucked or in the next episode, somewhere down the line, Derrick Berry says, the judges want more soul. Maybe I should start twerking. I can't remember when it was. We'll find out as we watch Ratchet Drag. Maybe it was around that time. I can't remember. It was. It was a wild. I remember, like, ooh, this is a wild comment, girl. This also when they got Robert Turner. Robert Turner had every excuse as to why she could murder Turner. I can't see. Oh, yeah.
A
What was that about?
B
I didn't want this role. I was like, this is a lot of stuff. We have a lot of excuses.
A
Smooth.
B
Damn. Between your cat and your fucking Alexa, you can't do shit at your house.
A
I can't even say her name. I'm afraid she's gonna hear me.
B
Bitch. Alexa and Khalid are running that shit. Khalid and who?
A
Alex.
B
But anyway, yeah, Robbie had a lot of excuses. They were like, we're not hearing it.
A
Roblon Turner. Bless her heart. But, you know. So Naysha. No. Cynthia and Robbie ended up in the bottom, and I.
B
You skipped over an important part.
A
What?
B
I won the challenge.
A
Oh, yes. You won. Congratulations. You win this week's challenge. Your first win of the season. And.
B
And I won some sunglasses. And y'. All, those sunglasses were not. They were not it. Y'. All.
A
I remember when you got them, they were like. They're like some of the. It was like the B O B ones with your. In your name.
B
They were falling apart. God bless those glasses.
A
And Robbie and Cynthia ended up in the bottom. And Robbie smoked her. Robbie was like, fucking doing triple axels, like, spinning, and he broke a light bulb.
B
Robbie sent that bitch to the fucking house. Robbie sent that bitch to the fucking as right now. I love cynically fun saying, but both times she's lip sync. She got pummeled. Peppermint ruined.
A
Cynthia, was that with the Maryland.
B
Yeah, that was. That was the music by Madonna.
A
Yeah. Yeah, that's Robbie.
B
Oh, my God.
A
Robbie did that. Robbie really did a really good job. I was like, come on. Robbie turned her. Robbie turned her.
B
So Robbie since. And Robbie started roller skating on tour as well.
A
Oh, work.
B
How long from season eight?
A
When did Robbie Turner disappear? Like, how long after season eight? Like, was it like that next year, the whole uber thing happened? I don't remember.
B
I could tell you right now, but just by going to her Instagram, because she stopped posting. Let. Robbie Turner. Two years afterwards.
A
She.
B
She quit drag.
A
She quit drag two years after season eight.
B
Yep.
A
Damn.
B
Interesting person. Very interesting person. So Robbie Turner says, Cynthia Lee Fonte to the house. Cynthia goes home. She's very emotional, and there's just. Just the ones of us who are left. Howie.
A
12 queens remain.
B
So I have to ask you, Mone, who do you think is going to
A
win season eight from this point? Who won the first week? Kim. I would say the top Kim if I had to pick a top two. I don't remember, but I would probably have said you and Kim.
B
Kim gtab have wins.
A
Who won the second episode?
B
Chi Chi.
A
Chi Chi won. Oh, because of Ruko's Empire.
B
Yeah.
A
I would have said you and Kim. I would have said you, Kim and Ass and Betty, because I would have not. I thought Ass was in a good job up until this point.
B
Well, one of us might win. Stick around, everyone, and you will find out who wins RuPaul's Drag Race all Star. Not all Stars. Oh, God, I feel like I'm back at the Pit Stop.
A
So, y', all, this is our recap of episode three. You know, again, we do this every Monday next week, surprisingly, episode four. So make sure y' all come back and hear us. Also, y', all, we have not told y' all in a while. We like when you guys leave us reviews on Apple Podcasts. It's something. It helps us and we like to read them. You know, I'm gonna open it right now and read a few. You want to pick up some to read, Bob?
B
Sure. Let me go to Apple Podcast.
A
Well, you don't sound like you want to. You sound like I'm making it.
B
Why would you say that? Okay, the first reviews are wild. Just be aware.
A
The first this. The first one by Wonder Pod.
B
I don't know how to find the reviews.
A
Just go to Apple Podcasts. I can also read them if you don't want to. I mean, if you can't find them,
B
I would have a podcast right now.
A
Did you. Did you click on Sub? Yeah. The first one says love it. 5 stars by Wonder Paws. Monet is so dumb. I love that Bob always checks the crazy stuff she says. She is nuts. So funny.
B
What is this one, Bob? Lay off, Monet. It's getting old. I can't rate y' all any lower than a five because reparations. But after the last episode, I'm sure I'm just tired. Jacob is referring to is refereeing the nonsense now. Monet, you're hilarious. Your ability to take everything in stride is inspiring. For real. I hope to be this fantastic someday by. I don't know who that is, but honestly, kiss my ass.
A
I feel seen well trudgy. You're refereeing the nonsense. Trudgier. Five star says one of the best podcasts. Then we have Macamizzle 101 says 5 stars. The title says it all. Loud mouth Bop a la Kimchi. World's funniest podcast. I agree. I mean, Ebony and Irony is very funny as well.
B
Oh. Oh, wow.
A
Colleen. I'm gonna beat this cat up.
B
Read the title. Don't come here if you don't like to argue. Honestly, I don't know why that tickled
A
me so much, but go back. Go to Apple Podcast. Listen, we are currently at 6425 ratings. Our goal by the end of Pride season is to get up to 7,000. That's only 6. That's only 575 more ratings. 575 of y' all niggas can go on Apple podcasts and leave us a rating. Ok.
B
Wait, can I read this? What is this? This review is wild. Not Bob so insecure about Monet that now she's focusing Sylvia Wotry on her season. So annoying. I do. People think that the reason we're doing Sylvia Watchery is because I don't want Monet to shine. Is that what people think? What you said when you suggested it to me.
A
Thank you, Jacob. And the truth comes out.
B
I think. I think all of you know that I've. Obviously, there's a reason why we can't. We're not doing Colleen 7.
A
Get from behind here.
B
What are you. Why are you always fighting this fucking cast?
A
Khalid is just. She is just behind the fucking thing, pushing the screen everywhere. Go down.
B
Yeah, being a cat. Leave this cat alone.
A
She's booing the screen. We're filming a podcast.
B
But not. People think that I'm just. That my whole goal is to make Monet not shine, and that's the only reason we're doing season eight. Also, did everyone think that I'm calling all the shots here, that I'm the only one who makes decisions here?
A
I had to say, when you and Jacob talked about doing the thing, you were like, oh, Monet, you have season All Star seven. I think we should do season eight. Those are your words, not mine. And I was like, it's fine. I don't care.
B
Okay, Monet, I can't tell if you're doing a thing. Do you want me to expose your real tea, or do you want to stop trying to be. Trying to be cute?
A
Honey, that's the real tea.
B
Oh, so now we're being cute. Okay. You know, I'm going to respect you and let you make this little fake story, this little false narrative. That's why I both know the real reason that we're not doing this to ourselves.
A
Jacob just confirmed. Jacob, did you not just confirm?
B
I. I just confirmed we're doing it
A
because Bob wanted to be the center of attention.
B
Yeah, you got. You got me. Let's just say the reason we're doing this. The same reason Monat, we didn't review the last season, honey. Let's just say she was very busy. Very, very busy.
A
I'm busy.
B
Very, very busy.
A
Priyanka Chopra. I mean. Oh, my God. Always say Priyanka Chopra. Priyanka the drag queen. Do you know there's someone called Boa, the drag queen from Canada? Is this. Is she your daughter?
B
No, her name is Boa. It's a bitch on arrival. But I think BOA was taken, so she just made her name Boa the drag queen on the ground. But BOA stands for Bitch on arrival.
A
Oh, yeah, I think I did know that already. Also, they dropped the trailer. Well, Brooklyn posted a thing about Canada versus the world. Are you gonna watch?
B
Probably not. To be honest, probably not. I do not enjoy the Canada season. After season one, I watched season two and I couldn't. It was not. It was hard to get through for me, if I'm being fully honest. So I don't know that I want to return to watching Canada's Drag Race. Other people like it though. I think they'll do fine without my patronage. Are you gonna watch it?
A
Yeah. I love Brooklyn.
B
You so full of shit. You are. So why are you lying so much in this fucking podcast? Did you watch season two?
A
I did not watch season two. I want to watch Canada verse of the world though, because there have people.
B
But you love it. You love. You love. You. You love Brooklyn Heights.
A
Okay, I love Brooklyn Heights, but I'm gonna watch. I watch Canada versus the world. Cause you get. It's not just Canadian girls. You get girls from other franchises, other cities, other countries.
B
I love Brooklyn Heights.
A
You such a fucking weird ass nigga. That's what you is. You a nigga. You was a wanna.
B
You are weird ass nigga based that off you. All I said was, I'm not watching you.
A
Like what All I literally. I did not. I did not make any sound effects. I literally was like this. I was like, you added all the sound effects.
B
All of a sudden, all of a
A
sudden, you became Monique Hard. You became Monique Heart.
B
Someone said every black person, every black person knows what this face is. Don't act brand new.
A
Jay. Cut my shit. I'm done. It's a rap. Bye. Instacart understands that not all bananas are created equal. Some people want them green, some want them ripe, some want them ready.

Hosts: Bob The Drag Queen & Monét X Change
Bob The Drag Queen and Monét X Change, the iconic and hilarious drag duo, revisit RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 8 Episode 3. The episode is a blend of the queens' trademark playful banter, insightful drag analysis, backstage tea, and no-filter critique—with the spotlight on “Ruko’s Empire,” the season’s acting challenge. Bob relives the episode he ultimately won, and Monét brings her witty perspective as a fellow drag race alum. Expect shade, insider trivia, fashion deep-dives, and plenty of laughter.
Debate about putting effort into mini challenge looks versus saving it for the main stage (14:01).
Cynthia Lee Fontaine’s unintentional comedy is highlighted:
Naomi Smalls wins the mini challenge, but Ru critiques her for only one tongue pop (17:54–18:11). Confusion ensues in recounting who was truly excited for Naysha’s return (18:18).
Challenge Outlined: Spoofing "Empire" with two teams. Naysha and Naomi are team captains (20:20). Robbie Turner picked first, viewed as potential fierce competition—though Bob notes she underperformed (21:09).
Acid Betty is picked last due to her abrasive behavior (22:06). Monét and Bob laugh over Chi Chi's team dynamics comment:
Costumes shared: Cynthia and Derrick borrowed Bob’s hair and coat for the challenge looks (23:28).
Choosing roles was collaborative, not competitive (24:07). Monét points out the birth of the “OG Sibling Rivalry” between Bob and Thorgy in this exact challenge (24:38).
How long did they have to prep lines? Not much time; could have been as little as a few hours (25:32–25:39).
The episode is fast-paced, irreverent, and full of familiar Southern drag wit. Both queens bring playful shade, cackle-laden drag education, and genuine inside knowledge as past contestants and winners. They keep things loose, skipping “official” recaps in favor of colorful storytelling, sharp reads, and candid backstage perspective.
Perfect for listeners seeking:
Not for:
End-of-Episode Call to Action:
Bob and Monét encourage fans to leave reviews to support the podcast, boosting their goal for more Apple Podcast ratings (58:48).
Next week:
Sibling Watchery will take on RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 8, Episode 4—promising more insight, shade, and sibling-level rivalry.
