Hosts: Bob the Drag Queen & Monét X Change

---

Main Theme / Purpose

This episode is a deep-dive, comedic recap and review of RuPaul's Drag Race Season 16, Episode 5, “Girl Groups.” Bob and Monét break down the highs, lows, and drama of the episode, discuss key performances in the girl group challenge, analyze runway looks (with a focus on the “pussycat wig” runway), and weigh in on the interpersonal dynamics and judging decisions. As always, their infectious chemistry and signature shade keep the recap vibrant and entertaining.

---

Key Discussion Points and Insights

Opening Banter, Catching Up, and Scepter Talk (01:06–03:35)

• Bob and Monét joke about Monét recently receiving her AS7 scepter, which led to a humorous discussion about Drag Race memorabilia breaking in transit—a classic “who broke my stuff?” sibling comedy bit.
• Red M&Ms & Podcast Chemistry: They tease each other about snack habits and podcast set-ups, reaffirming their playful dynamic.

---

Initial Drag Race S16 Commentary (04:28–07:00)

• Praise for Season 16: Both hosts agree that this has been a “good season” with talented, funny queens and strong runways.
  • Monét (04:28): “This is gonna go down in history… as one of the good seasons. I think the girls are really talented.”
• Mirage’s Elimination: Bob expresses sadness at Mirage leaving, even though he “didn’t cry” but would have if he was in the room.

---

Tea, Tension & Shade – The Q vs. Plane Jane Drama (07:00–12:23)

• Mirage’s departure brings tears, but neither think Plane Jane would get the same love if she left due to her abrasive persona.
• The “Cunt” Word: The episode brings up the different standards in editing—when “cunt” is bleeped/muted and when it’s not.
• Q's Attitude: Bob finds Q’s top-placing complaints “annoying” and sees Plane Jane’s passive-aggressive responses as “cunty.”
  • Bob (08:03): “Complaining about being in the top is so irritating. RuPaul must have heard that and said, 'We got something for that ass, baby.'”
  • Monét is less bothered, seeing the comments as less severe compared to true shade.
• Xunami’s Voice: Both hosts shout out her accent and commanding tone.

---

Rise and Redemption: Plasma’s Evolving Edit (10:47–13:33)

• Bob admits a complete change of heart about Plasma, calling her “fierce, talented, delusional in the right way,” and puts her in the “top two most talented” (11:40).
• Monét counters that Plasma is a great singer but “does too much” at times.

---

Morning Tensions – Amanda vs. Plane Jane (13:46–16:05)

• Confrontation Recap: Plane Jane throws shade, Amanda fires back, and Bob distinguishes apology (“just for the person who offended”) from atonement (“for the person offended”).
  • Bob (14:50): “If I say I'm sorry and I keep doing it, I was never sorry... Apology is only for the person who offended. Atonement is for the person who has been offended.”

---

Mini-Challenge & Banter – Banana/Apple Queens, Focus Issues (16:11–20:02)

• Mini-challenge highlights: “All that Plaz” and Sapphira’s “throat goat” both make the queens laugh.
• Nymphia is dubbed ‘Banana Queen’, paralleling Bob’s own snack reputation.
• Sapphira wins the mini-challenge (20:24), inspiring jokes about “book burning in Florida.”

---

Girl Group Formation & Schoolyard Memories (21:01–24:46)

• Team captains chosen: Geneva (for winning the lip sync), Sapphira (mini-challenge winner), Plasma (previous challenge).
• Megami picked last: They discuss the emotional impact of always feeling “last picked,” relating it to queer experiences in school.
• Nostalgic Banter: Bob remembers being picked first for being tall; Monét reminisces about her own playground days.

---

Girl Group Challenge Breakdowns (24:46–37:17)

• Challenge explained: Each queen writes and records her own verse to a track from Ru’s latest album, then performs.
• Writing and Rehearsals:
  • Geneva’s Team: Nymphia unfocused and “kiki-ing,” requiring heavy assistance from Megami—who tweets about actually writing Nymphia’s verse. Nymphia confirms this on Twitter!
    • Bob (27:35): “Megami fucking ate that? That’s amazing... Why did they not show that on TV? That could have given Megami a real storyline boost.”
  • Plasma’s Team: Plasma is a self-described “tryhard” theater kid. Monét finds her BFA commentary grating, but Bob enjoys the earnestness.
  • Choreo woes: Every team has a “straggler”—for Plasma’s team, it’s Xunami.

---

Choreography, Strategy, and Keeping Talents Secret (33:02–37:17)

• Issues with Choreographing/Team Leadership: Geneva is captain but “offers no direction,” Maya ends up handling choreography for her group (34:39).
• Is it a good Drag Race strategy to hide your talents? Bob says “no,” using past winners as examples; Monét thinks it adds to TV gags and makes reveals exciting.

---

Emotional Fallout – Q, PJ, Amanda (37:35–44:49)

• Ongoing drama around Q feeling invalidated: Q directly addresses it with PJ (Plane Jane), triggering a group conflict about respect, atonement, and apology.
  • Bob (41:02): “If you aggress someone and you’re like, ‘Oh my god, I’m literally just kidding. Why are you being so uptight?’ That’s crazy.”
  • Monét compares friend-group dynamics to Amanda being more hurt by shade from PJ than others she’s closer to.
• Bob and Monét debate who should have apologized and why, with Bob noting that PJ apologizes to Q (but not Amanda) only because she respects Q more.

---

Runways & Challenge Performances: In-Depth Breakdown

Group 1: QDSM (Q, Dawn, Sapphira, Morphine)

Start: 46:01

• Q: “Clunky” choreography and a “bad dance outfit.” Bob especially notes she stood out for the wrong reasons (46:52).
• Morphine: “Great move, not mind-blowing” (49:39).
• Sapphira: “Amazing look. Full dissertation of lyrics. Didn’t understand critiques of her being in her head” (50:14, 51:12).
• Dawn: Leaning into “dumb” drag trope—Bob: “Make Drag Smart Again.”

Group 2: Lover Girls (Plasma, Plane Jane, Amanda, Xunami)

Start: 54:40

• Standout: Plane Jane—best verse, “possibly pre-written,” but fits her brand (60:25).
• Plasma & Amanda: Both critiqued for lyrics being a bit generic but have strong vocals and performance. Amanda’s wig is “eating her up.”
• Xunami: “Amazing walk; knows her beauty; verse started strong but lost momentum.”

Group 3: Thicc & Stick (Maya, Geneva, Megami, Nymphia)

Start: 61:53

• Maya: “Shines” with viral-level dance, “backflip in place,” city girls reference (64:08).
• Geneva: “Struggled; off-beat, overstuffed lyrics. Weakest in the group” (65:27).
• Megami: “Ate, great lyrics, wrote two verses (including for Nymphia), but black bodysuit called plain.”
• Nymphia: Gets high marks for performance and “banana queen” branding, with a ghostwritten verse.

---

Runway: “Pussycat Wig” (68:58–85:58)

Highlights and Critiques (moved group-by-group):

• Morphine: Michelle Pfeiffer’s Catwoman-inspired, face “always perfect.”
• Q: Stunning craftsmanship (“one of the best costume designers in Drag Race history” – 71:59), confusion over story (blood, sword).
• Sapphira: Dr. Evil-themed; clever use of bald cap for cat illusion.
• Dawn: Unique, avant-garde look, but Bob insists it's “not a kitty cat wig,” more of a “bowl cut on a kitty cat.”
• Plasma: Creative (headphones with cat ears), Monét didn’t care for sleeves, but praised the shoes.
• Amanda: Conceptual “egg cracking” headpiece didn’t land—both thought execution was poor.
• Xunami: “Lipstick stud” aesthetic loved by both.
• Plane Jane: Good look, but “would be better with a ponytail.”
• Geneva: Claimed flapper, but only “from the chin up.”
• Maya: Pad game strong, “best look of the night for her” (82:34).
• Megami: Padded “pixie in a pixie”—praised for creative tattoo illusion.
• Nymphia: Triple reveal—ends in a “vagina wig” with a kittycat—praised as “best look of the night, but loses points for a bad bald cap.”

---

“Who Should Go Home and Why?" Segment (86:26–88:48)

At 86:26

• Team Thicc & Stick win (each gets $1,250).
• Everyone else is up for elimination.
• Runway vote:
  • Amanda: 4 votes (Sapphira, Morphine, Q, Plane Jane)
  • Q: 4 votes (Dawn, Plasma, Amanda, Xunami)
  • Tsunami: 1 (named by Q, who’s called out for it; perhaps strategic to split the vote and better her own odds).

---

Lip Sync and Elimination (91:48–94:41)

At 91:48

• Bottom two: Amanda and Q
• Monét leans toward Geneva deserving bottom more, but both agree Amanda had the worst runway
• Lip Sync: Neither queen did “remarkably better”—could’ve gone either way.
• Bob: “Q did a slightly better job in the lip sync and had a better runway, but Q was the worst by far in the challenge.”
• Monét: Agrees runway and performance history matter. Amanda sent home.

---

End of Episode: Season Predictions (94:19–95:09)

• Front Runners:
  • Bob: Nymphia (“really doing a very good job right now”)
  • Monét: Plane Jane (“consistently strong”)
  • Honorable mentions: Sapphira (“consistent”)

---

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• Bob (11:40): “Plasma is just the right amount of delusional, but the delusion is backed up by real.”
• Monét (28:58): “Plasma is taking the lead for her team, and she looks amazing… She’s really turning it.”
• Bob (34:50): “The apology itself is only for the person who offended. Atonement is the person who has been offended.”
• Bob (41:02): “If you aggress someone and... ‘I’m literally just kidding. Why are you being so uptight?’ That’s crazy.”
• Monét (59:52): “That chicken egg, honestly, so far, is one of the best looks of the season for me. Her fucking Humpty Dumpty look was incredible.”
• Bob (68:39): “Shout out to Nymphia’s ghostwriter, Megami, and shout out to Nymphia for being able to perform a stunning performance.”

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Hello, Mo.

[Monet X Change]

How are you? Look what I got in the mail today.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, where'd you get a scepter from? Why you have a scepter?

[Monet X Change]

It's my AS7 scepter. I never got it. Oh, and Edward, who works at wow, he was like, hey, Monet, are you in town? I had to drop off your scepter. I mean, Low Key Realty, he's been messaging me a lot of, like, for a long time. I'm just, like, not in town. I just didn't respond. And so finally we, like, coordinated, and I got my scepter. Patty brought it over.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, that's the. That's the scepter that everyone. They gave all. They gave the girls. And did everyone else get their stuff?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, I guess. I don't know. I'm gonna show y' all this, too. Look at this shit. While we're on the topic of Drag Race, this happened. Can you tell what's wrong with this? With this fucking Marquette.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It looks like an arm is missing. Can you put it by your face, please? It's out of frame. By your face in front of your. Like, in front of your face. Like, in the middle of the frame. It looks like it's missing an arm. Yeah.

[Monet X Change]

Yes. When we moved. Fucking Andy. Don't listen. And he let the fucking movers pack it and they snapped my arm off and then this happened. Can you tell what's wrong with this

[Bob the Drag Queen]

one in front of your face, please? It is, like, in the middle, like, dead in the middle of the screen. It's so off to the side a little bit. Yeah. Flag is missing.

[Monet X Change]

That happened literally the day I got it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Why do I feel like I'm being scolded? Did you see what's wrong here? I'm like, bitch, I didn't do it. Damn.

[Monet X Change]

Well, you know what the tea is? I don't know if you didn't do it. Cause y' all know Bobby coming in here, and Bob is very. Y'. All. Bob is very rambunctious. When Bob comes over, Bob is over here pulling shit off his shit. He's touching stuff. Bob be breaking stuff, and he don't be telling nobody.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I've only been to your house twice, for starters. And secondly, this was.

[Monet X Change]

This was in my house before I moved here. All my other places you've been to. Oh, my God, you ordered red M and Ms. What?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What do you. What. What's your problem?

[Monet X Change]

Are red M and Ms. On your. On your banana rider?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It was just really easy. I just. It was super easy to get them, actually.

[Monet X Change]

Also, you are so. Y' all don't. Bob, eat like a hood, bitch. Just. Bob,

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I can't see what you're doing, but I'm assuming you're being as delicate as I'm being right now. What? You act like me eating radio is, like, crazy or something. So many, so many of them.

[Monet X Change]

I see your big ass finger trying to fit in that big ass cup is hilarious.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And so such little effort to get these red M and Ms. Well, this

[Monet X Change]

is not a podcast about red M and M's, Bob. This is sibling wisery, and we are talking about episode five of RuPaul's Drag Race season 16.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Dick. We gotta do low data mode. I can't even. Like, Monet's audio is choppy. She is, like, moving like. It's crazy.

[Monet X Change]

Really?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It's like stop motion for me.

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

We'll put on low data mode.

[Monet X Change]

So just so y' all know, when we enter low data mode, that means we can't see each other. So I'm just literally gonna. With all of my knowledge of Bob the Drag Queen, I think I know Bob pretty well. I can almost, like, at certain points throughout this podcast, I'm gonna stop and I will tell y' all how Bob is talking with his hands and how Bob is expressing himself. I think I know you that well. Do you think you know me that well?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, I do. The audio is still a little choppy. We're gonna make it through this, I guess. I don't know if that helped. You can undo it if you want, J. That did not help the audio at all, but I really enjoyed this episode of RuPaul's Drag Race.

[Monet X Change]

I'm enjoying this season of RuPaul's Drag Race. I said this before. This is gonna go down the history, in my opinion, as one of the good seasons. I think the girls are really talented. I think overall, the looks are pretty good, and I think the girls are really funny. I'm really enjoying season 16. Like, I really am.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah. I mean, you know, there were moments, but this episode was just really, really great. You know, when the girls come back from the elimination, there's a lot of tears in the room. A lot of tears. And understandable. I was emotional watching Mirage go home. I just feel so bad. Yeah, I like Mirage a lot, and I thought she just did a really good job.

[Monet X Change]

Did you cry?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I did not cry, no. But if I was there, I probably would have cried, to be honest.

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

We were recording an episode of the. We recorded an episode with Layla McQueen for the podcast. Then her Internet was choppy, so we ended up making it a Patreon exclusive, which, again, y' all will get later on Patreon. But we were there when Bob discovered that Mirage got sent home, and he literally, unintentionally did Manila's husband.

[Monet X Change]

Shut the fuck up. Did you fall off your chair and

[Bob the Drag Queen]

say, no, I didn't fall off the chair, but I did, like, fall back and watch it and go, oh, my God.

[Monet X Change]

Wow.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I was gagged. I was really gagged.

[Monet X Change]

Would you hook up with Mirage if you were presented to chance?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You know, I have not considered that. That was not on my mind. Know, just asking. I haven't. I haven't considered this.

[Monet X Change]

Well, in this moment. Would you consider it now?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, a big part of attraction to me is knowing that someone's also attracted to me as well. Attraction is attractive. So I just need. I just need a lot more information. You know what I mean?

[Monet X Change]

I'm attracted to you. Can we.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I said it's a big part. It's not the only part, but also the other part is attitude. Attitude. And, you know, kids who grew up rich. Part of the one. I don't want to fuck a one percenter. You know what I mean? Would you fuck Mirage? Give him the opportunity.

[Monet X Change]

I'd probably suck it. And I would probably fuck it. Yeah, maybe.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

This is such a vulgar conversation for no reason. Wow.

[Monet X Change]

We have had vulgar on this podcast. What are you talking about?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, but it's vulgar about our own thing. It's not like you want to fuck this person who has Not. It's about like, ooh, here's a sexual interaction I had. Not like, do you want to fuck this person that just feels so unprompted? You know what I mean?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. The girls are really, really, really sad. I mean, like, bitch, they're acting like. They're acting like they want to give a fucking eulogy. That Mirage and left, I guess. I guess Mirage really affected a lot of people. And the girls really liked her and seen her go really made them sad. I want to see that same energy when, God forbid, Plane Jane goes home. Do you think Plane Jane's gonna get that same reception? I don't think so.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't think she will because she's upsetting a lot of people, which. A lot of people. I mean, she's been called a cunt twice in one episode.

[Monet X Change]

You and your cunting daughter, by the way.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Weird thing is, they bleeped out cunt during the song when Nymphia said it. But they didn't bleep out cunt when Amanda and Xunami said it during the episode.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, I didn't realize, but I guess I wasn't paying attention. I didn't notice that. But to your point. So this sort of gets. They get talking in the fallout. And Q, first of all, when she says, all my life, Q gives a fucking Color Purple. All my life, I had to fight. I said, girl, girl, I gotta be

[Bob the Drag Queen]

honest, I think Q may or may not be kind of annoying. And I don't know if I. Oh, my God, I wrote that down. I just don't think I'm into, like, not, like, as a person. This is just like, you know, complaining about being in the top is so irritating, Right? And let me tell you right now, RuPaul must have heard that. The producers must have heard that and said, we got something for that ass, baby. And then Plane Jane says, I'm not gonna complain about being in the top. I'm not gonna, like, sit here and cry and sulk all day. That was so out of pocket.

[Monet X Change]

No, Wayne, hold up.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Let me finish. Let me motherfucking finish. Not that I disagree with her. It was just so out of pocket. Like, it'd be one thing. You know what it is? I think it's because it's passive aggressive. If it was, people are out here in the bottom. There's a difference in being like, girl. People are literally here in the bottom. This girl just lip sync Geneva just lip synced for her, has lip synced every episode of Drag Race she's been on up until now. This is the first time this bitch not lip sync versus being like, I'm not gonna sit here and complain and sulk like some people. It's giving some people.

[Monet X Change]

Okay, first of all, the first time that Geneva lip sync, it was a good thing. Cause she was in the top, she stopped.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And I understand that, but still, there's still pressure. She had to lip sync in her first three episodes of Drag Race. That's not nothing.

[Monet X Change]

Well, as someone who is lip syncing the bottom at the top, it is way different energy when you lip sync at the top than at the bottom. That's number one. Number two, I'm just stating the fact

[Bob the Drag Queen]

that Geneva Carr is lip synced her three episodes. That's literally all I'm saying. I don't know why you're trying to fight me on a fact. Geneva Carr is lip synced on her first three episodes of Drag Race because

[Monet X Change]

my name is the Trixon and I came here to fight. Clearly. I think, I don't think it's. I don't think it's bitchy or cunty. I really don't. I think that. I think that it's. I think.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, first of all, all the girls are.

[Monet X Change]

All the girls are kind of like making eyes because they're clearly annoyed with Q&PJ is the one putting some words through the annoyance. And I don't think it's that bitchy or cunty. I really don't. In the world of bitchy and cunty things to do, I don't think it's one of those things. I really don't.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I agree with Xunami. It was cunty and it was. She's kind of a cunt. And I agree. Me and Xunami are on the same page about this.

[Monet X Change]

Also. I love Xunami's voice. I love her accent. I love her voice. I just think she just sounds so fucking dope. I love Xunami accent. She's Haitian, right? Or no, she's Panamanian.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You're just naming countries at this point. You're just naming countries below Florida. You just name any country below Florida. Between Florida and South America. You're like,

[Monet X Change]

anyway, I love Sanabi's voice. I think she just. Because of her accent. She just sounds so authoritative when she speaks. And I'm really into it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So when we come back in the next day, can I just say something? I have completely done a full 180. I love plasma. I like her. I think she's fierce. I think she's talented. I think she's funny. I think she's kind of corny. I think she looks great. I've always thought she looked great. I love plasma. I like her so much. I think she's so. I just think she's really talented. I think she's great for RuPaul's Drag Race. I think she's just the right amount of delusional, but the delusion is backed up by real. I think that she might be top two most talented people on this season. Honestly, I.

[Monet X Change]

Okay. I also agree that Plasma talented from the week when I said that she's, like, a great singer. I just think that Plasma does too much. And we're gonna get into it later because she does something that really gets on my nerves, but we'll get there and give it a beat.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I mean, she's corny. She is corny, but I like her. I don't give a fuck. I misjudged her, and I think that she is fucking fun, and I think she's great, and I love her on this show. She's cunty enough, she's talented enough. Her looks are good. She's standing up.

[Monet X Change]

Do you think Plasma's Cher look was a good look?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Which one was it again?

[Monet X Change]

The Cher. The nude thing?

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

Cher. The Metalla.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

The one she won in? The one that everyone gagged for? Yes.

[Monet X Change]

Everyone gagged for on the Runway.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yes.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, my God, the judges, too.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Plasma looked great.

[Monet X Change]

I'm not saying she looked great. I'm not saying she didn't look great. I'm just saying that it was not a fabulous look. It was fine.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She looked very good, and I think she's a fucking great drag queen. She looks good. She sounds good. She's talented. I like plasma. I do work.

[Monet X Change]

Then you should.

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

So just. Just to clarify, this was the episode that made you change your mind or you changed it between.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I mean, I felt like I was soft on the first of all, like, oh, she's annoying. I hate theater kids, which I do. Theater kids are annoying. I am a theater kid, which is what. Maybe I was seeing something. I'm saying something of myself, my. My younger self, who was, like, obsessed with theater. You know, the failed actor become drag queen trope. You know what I mean? And then I think I got really soft on her last episode, and now I'm like, I am on. I am on her side. I like Plasma. I would go to a Plasma Plasma show. If Plasma was in town, I would go to her show.

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

Would you like to publicly apologize to your previous comments about her?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. What did I say about her grovel?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What did I say about her?

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

That she was annoying?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She is annoying. I just said she's corny and annoying, but I still like her.

[Monet X Change]

But you should still apologize for the past things you said to hurt her feelings.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm not interested. I just think that she's really talented, and I think she's just fun. She's just great. I just really enjoy. I think plasma is. I really like her.

[Monet X Change]

Well, that being said, they do the mini challenge, and there were ones that. There were two of them that were really funny, and I thought that all that plaz was very funny. I thought that Sapphira's throat goat was very funny. Those were the two standouts for me.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, you skipping over Amanda and Plane Jane having it out in this little moment. And I gotta say, honestly, whenever they go head to head playing Jane, Amanda kind of lets playing Jane have it. Like, every time Amanda and plane Jane go head to head, Amanda lets her have it. I feel like plane like, says something really snappy and then Amanda just bucks off. And then plane, like, backs down and goes, oh, well, there's no need to be angry.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, you mean. You mean when they walk in the next morning.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. And Amanda let her have it. And that seems to be the pattern. Amanda says something shady. Plane Jane goes off on her. No, sorry. PJ says something shady. Amanda goes off on her. PJ backs down and is like, well, it's just my opinion, like, sorry, Sorry.

[Monet X Change]

Which shows that she is, like, very. She's, you know, she's self aware. Like, she hurts her feelings, she apologizes immediately.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, if you hurt someone's feelings and you keep doing it every opportunity you get twice in the same day, all that's showing is that that does not show that you're immediate. That means that you have a problem.

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

If I.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

If I say I'm sorry and I keep doing it, I was never sorry again. I want to reiterate apology. The apology itself is only for the person who offended. Atonement is the person who has been offended. So when you apologize, that's just me saying, oh, I'm sorry. I'm sending a note out to the world that I am sorry, but I've done no level of atonement. She's doing no atoning. She's apologizing for herself, but she's not atoning to Amanda.

[Monet X Change]

But it's the first time, the second time with Q. Q is the one that brings Amanda up. Q is the one that brings Amanda up. Which is why PJ has to respond about Amanda.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We're not even there yet. We're not even there yet.

[Monet X Change]

I know, but she said twice. And she said she brings it up twice. Q is the one that brought her up.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, Q brought her up, but Q did not bring her up in a shady way. Amanda was just like, I have more respect for you than I have for pj.

[Monet X Change]

You mean pj, you will mix these white bitches up. You will mix these white bitches up.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It's just how I was fighting. She was like, I have more respect for you than I have for Amanda. That was because all Q was like, this is very indicative of what you did with Amanda. Q was like, this just seems very similar to what you did with Amanda, which to me does not seem. Now, what was weird was when Q was like, you're the one who brought her up. That was weird. And that's not true. And maybe she just forgot that she mentioned Amanda. I don't know what that was. But the fact that PJ took it to where she took it to is not on cue.

[Monet X Change]

I agree, I agree, I agree. But pj, Q is the one that brought it up. Anyway, we're jumping ahead. We're jumping ahead. We are really jumping ahead.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Who cares that she brought her. Let's, let's. Okay, so first of all, plasma looks like jinx, and she's talking like Lil Edie. Is this intentional in the many genres?

[Monet X Change]

Probably. Probably. I saw that too. And I think she's making. I think she's making a reference. She's not realizing she's doing her. Maybe she is, but she didn't mention that she was, so I don't know.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Were you triggered?

[Monet X Change]

She's obviously a student of Drag Race also and, you know, theater, so it would make sense that she would. That she would make a jinx reference.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You know, I do like the name Lady Cox. Do stink. That's a very funny name that playing Jane came up with. And okay, honestly, I thought you loved apples, bitch. Not like Nymphia loves bananas. This shit is crazy.

[Monet X Change]

She's the banana queen. I am not the apple queen. To be fair, I am not the apple queen. Nymphia is the banana queen. So she's letting us.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like, this bitch loves apples.

[Monet X Change]

This is bananas. You mean.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I mean bananas, bitch.

[Monet X Change]

Do you need take a five hour energy or something? You are like, this bitch loves peers.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Her love for peers. I'm screaming peers. She loves her peers. She just loves her drag risk and

[Monet X Change]

she loves her peers up and say, you're fine.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm just gagged at how much this bitch loves apple, loves bananas. I cannot get like, girl. And I kind of felt like that one girl who was like, bitch, we get it. You like bananas. Like, we get it.

[Monet X Change]

I mean, says the bitch that y'.

[Ad Read Announcer]

All.

[Monet X Change]

Bob wanted to body check, body slam, and fucking fight a promoter. Cause he did not give him a fucking banana. So you are Wanda. Talk about bananas, bitch.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I was hungry.

[Monet X Change]

I wouldn't eat.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I asked for food. Just so you all know, every single person on the tour had their rider and their food, except for me. I was the only person who didn't. I did not go crazy. I just wanted a banana. Imagine you're on a tour, and every queen, every crew person, every dancer, every promoter has their food from the writer. And you go back and look at your stuff, and it's not there.

[Monet X Change]

Bob was waiting to fight full of bananas. So you, Nia, is taking a page from your book.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But if I come back and my fucking red M and Ms. Aren't there, we're going to have a motherfucking party.

[Monet X Change]

I cannot believe you have a cup of red M and M. Can you please tell me about these? I cannot finish a podcast. Why do you have red M and Ms? What are you doing?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I just like red M&M's, and they're just so easy to get. Because it was so easy to get. I was just like, I'll just grab some. Because they're really easy and it's not. It's not a lot of. It's not like a lot of fuss to get them.

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

So for context, you. You said in an earlier episode of the podcast, you said it was hard to get M and M's, and you argued over what. They're harder easy to get. So we got written M's to prove how easy they were you to get. So he got them shipped overnight. He did get them very easily, but then he went to Australia. So this is first time we've actually podcasted together. But it would. His goal was to be really cunty and to pull around the red M and Ms. The next day. He did get them overnight. They were easy to get. But it has been two weeks because you were in Australia.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I really forgot that Monet ever said anything about Red M. M. That's so crazy. I don't even. That's so crazy.

[Monet X Change]

Anyways, wait, whose books did you like in the mini challenge?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I like. I liked Sapphira's. I wish that Sapphira was doing better television because she's a great queen, but she's not being great telev. I need her to be better television so that people can get on her.

[Monet X Change]

I think. So. I think we see. I think it was natural to. Sapphira, obviously, is this, like, mothering presence and this mothering figure, and we see glimpses of that, which make me really like Sapphira, like, how she made or how she told Amanda that before she gets on camera. And I think Amanda said it on camera, so one of them said it that she needs to practice her makeup four more times. Like, that little thing alone made me be like, work like she is. Like, yes, it's the competition, but this is here to also, like, help her. Her.

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

Her.

[Monet X Change]

Her. Her adversaries in this thing. You know, I like. I. I think she is. And it's also about. We're only four or five episodes in. They're like 11 more.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I didn't understand what you just said. This. This connection is so crazy. But I'm just gonna assume that you would disagree for the sake of disagreeing. I. I just think she could be better. Okay.

[Monet X Change]

What? No, I disagree for the sake of disagreeing.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That's what I'm assuming. So I want to go on to. Okay. Q looks like Matty morphosis in the. In the mini challenge. Does anyone else notice that?

[Monet X Change]

I didn't see that. I don't know.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And Sapphira wins the mini challenge. Also, when. When they said that. When they said that what's the name was gonna get the first book burned in the. In the state of Florida, it really tickled me.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, yeah, that was very funny. Very, very, very.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And. And RuPaul is not joking around about this house of hidden meanings. She is not playing around. Have you seen that clip of. That clip of Ru going?

[Monet X Change]

Of course, yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

When my joke. When my candle tells a funny joke, but I have to leave the. My candle tells a funny joke, but I have to leave the house.

[Monet X Change]

So because of the mini challenge, Geneva is a captain for losing the last episode. Sapphira is the captain for winning this challenge, and I think Plasma is the other captain. Or wait.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Okay, to be clear, Geneva's a captain for winning the lip sync, not for losing the. That's crazy. That was a. The fact that you would say that is insane. She's a captain for winning the lip sync. Geneva's the captain. She's a fucking loser. Fucking damn Monet. That was crazy.

[Monet X Change]

Sapphire's the captain went and left listening. Sapphire's the captain for winning this mini challenge, and Plasma is a captain for what? Winning the last challenge.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, Moni, that was crazy. So the first girl picked is Dawn. Dawn is the first girl picked. And the last girl picked is Megami,

[Monet X Change]

which

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I was like somewhere in the middle picked when we did our girl group.

[Monet X Change]

I'm pretty sure, I believe.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And I could not imagine what it's like to be picked last, especially in a group full of people who probably got picked last in school. You know what I mean? Like, that shit cannot feel good. And I think that Megami is very justified in her feeling the way she feels. That shit would piss me off too.

[Monet X Change]

Did you ever used to be. Did you get. Did you used to get picked last in school when you used to do stuff on playground?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, not really. Because I was very strong. So if we did like tug of war, which is a popular activity at my elementary school, I was always picked first because I was a lot larger than the other children.

[Monet X Change]

Like, y' all would play tug of war on your own, like after school, on the playground?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, we played during gym.

[Monet X Change]

Well, I'm saying, like after school, like when there were no teachers around, like, when did y' all just play?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I didn't hang out at school after school. I mean, I was in one after school program, but we had activities. We didn't do sports. We just did like coloring and stuff. And then I would. When I started after school activity, I was in high school and I wasn't like theater, so we weren't like picking teams for that either.

[Monet X Change]

Interesting. Yeah, Kameeka and I used to hang

[Bob the Drag Queen]

out like on like the park basketball in my neighborhood. I was always picked first as well because I've been 6 foot 2 since I was in seventh grade. So I was almost always crazy that

[Monet X Change]

you've been in seventh grade.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I was really good in the paint. I was really good at getting rebounds. I was great at doing layups. Not that I can do any of that anymore. But at the time you shoot, are

[Monet X Change]

you good at shooting?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

At the time I was. When I was younger, I actually won a three point competition in this. In lagrange, Georgia against. I was in seventh. I was in sixth grade. I won with kids up to eighth grade. I mean, up to eighth grade I won that category of three pointers where they line up all the. The racks of the balls and you just go around and you shoot within like a time frame on the clock.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, wow. And you. So you could have been like a, like a, like an NBA diva?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, no, no. I don't think I had the passion or the skill set to actually do that.

[Monet X Change]

Could you dribble?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I can still dribble to this day.

[Monet X Change]

Interesting.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Can you dribble basketball?

[Monet X Change]

No, I'm not good at basketball. I was good at football, but not basketball.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, I can still dribble, and I can go between my legs, but I might have to, like, practice for, like, an hour. But I can go between the legs, and I can shoot a three pointer. It might take me a second, but we were at Barclays, and right outside my dressing room was the practice court, and everyone was, like, shooting B ball out.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, spaghetti. You're on the Madonna. Toriora. Barclays. Okay. Jesus Christ.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You sound so jealous right now. And honestly, I understand. I get it. I'd be jealous if I were you too. We were in the practice gym, and I shot, and I was shooting threes, and I did not get a single one. So I think I need to practice. I don't think it stays with you for long.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. And then. So each girl group is gonna have to. They're doing a remix from RuPaul's latest album. So it's the girl group challenge. You have to, like, write. They have to write their verses, and. But they're not recording them. Wait, no, no. They are recording them. What am I talking about? They have to write and record their verses, have performed them on stage, but not live. I bring back live challenges. I love the live singing challenges. I just think it adds even another layer that makes it even more fun.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I agree. And by the way, to Maddy Morphos on the Pit Stop, being like, Bob writing her own voices is corny. Bitch. You think it's corny because you could never. Because you could never.

[Monet X Change]

Where did she come from? Madeline Morphis?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, she was slowly pissed off. She was like, I think Bob writing his own verses and girls showing what they would have worn is corny. And I'm like, well. Cause you can never, like, by.

[Monet X Change]

When you would do it on the Pit Stop, she's saying no.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like, anytime I've ever written a verse to a song on Drag Race, she's like, oh, it's corny. She's like, the verses are good, but they're corny. And I'm like, but also, you could never.

[Monet X Change]

So shots fired, Maddie Morphosis. Give us a verse show about that. You're not corny.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And I like Maddy, but she could never. So the teams are Geneva, Nymphia, Maya Megami. That's one team. Then Dawn, Morphine, Sapphira, and Q. And then Plane Jane, Plasma, Amanda, Tsunami. Which is wild because Plane Jane and Amanda ended up on the same team. I don't Know if Plasma is just picking off of what she likes or if Plasma's like, I wanna see these bitches go at it. But I was gagged that she put them on the same team.

[Monet X Change]

That's your girl, Plasma. So they're all getting to writing. And Geneva's team, we're getting the sense that Nymphia is, like, not taking it seriously. And Nymphia is kind of, like, doing her own thing. And Maya's like, bitch, I need to focus. Geneva's like, shut the fuck up. And Banana girl, Chiquita, Nymphia, Banana is just doing her own thing. Kiki kaka yaha. And the girls are not hacking it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It's very much giving Thorgy when we had to fucking do the street meets. And that shit is fucking annoying when you're trying to. When you're on the clock and you have to work as a team. And one bitch is out here. Bitch. Focus, bitch. I feel. Who was it who was pissed off at her? Was it Tsunami? I was with Tsunami. I was like, bitch, you need to fucking focus. Banana, bitch. Get your fucking. Get your bananas in a bunch and fucking do Write your verse, Ms. Thing.

[Monet X Change]

Well, here's the tea. So Megami tweeted, for anyone who thinks I didn't bust my ass, I wrote my verse. I literally wrote Nymphia's verse. I helped Geneva edit her verse. I contributed the middle part of the choreo. I came up with a team name. I fought with the fear of God in me for this was an asset to my team. So I guess Nymphia wasn't focusing. Megami had to literally write her verse.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Did anyone negate that?

[Monet X Change]

No. Nymphia tweeted. I just want to say Megami basically wrote my lyrics. I was really struggling, so please show her some love. Oh, bitch, you were struggling because you wasn't focused.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Wait, Megami fucking ate that? That's amazing. Cause I like Nymphia's verse. Yeah, Like, Megami fucking ate that. And why did they not show that? That should have been shown. Megami needed that. This episode. Megami really fucking especially considering that. And part of her whole story was how she's, like, trying to rise up. That should have been part of the storyline. It could have really done her some justice and got her some more fans.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So I was proud of the dummy. This episode, I was actually really like. Because she's upset about being chosen last. I understand that. You know, I don't want to be picked last. And she got a chance to shine through, and she has been I mean, I'm proud of her because I really wanted a fucking victory for her. I kept being like, I really want this bitch to fucking have a victory. So good for her, honestly. Shout out to Magamba. You better work, Miss Thing.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, she did a great job. And, well, we're going to get to the verse in a little bit, but I was like, let's go on to

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Team Plasma for rehearsals. Plasma is moving fast. Plasma is such a theater kid.

[Monet X Change]

She's a New Yorker talking fast. I'm a fast. Y' all know this. I'm a fast talker. I love when bitches be talking fast. I'm a bitch. If y' all can't listen, keep the fuck up. I don't know y' all be complaining about me talking fast, but that's how fucking talk, so get used to it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So everyone has a struggler. Every team has one struggler and straggler. And this team, this one is Tsunami. Xunami cannot figure out what Plasma's doing. And honestly, Plasma is fucking eating like she. The choreo looks good doing a fucking. Plasma's doing a very good job. Well, this is what I wrote.

[Monet X Change]

This is what I wrote. I said Plasma is taking the lead for her team, and she looks amazing. I'm really impressed with her dancing skills and she's really turning it. But she says that fucking line about being a try hard. About, like, the try hard BFA thing is so lame to me. I'm like, girl, if she would have just done everything she did and leave the BFA thing alone. Just like, do you stop trying to tell us why you have these qualifications? About what about the BFA thing? Just, like, do what you're doing and we'll fall in love with that. Like, trying to, like, do this, like, try hard bf, failed, quote unquote, BFA thing is so lame to me.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I want to agree. I think that theater kids are just kind of corny and lame. That aside, I think she's really fucking phenomenal. But also, some of my favorite drag queens are annoying. You're annoying. Jackie Beat is so fucking annoying. You know what I mean? But y' all are really fucking great drag queens. And I think that part of the charm of these entertainers is their. Sometimes their follies. Sometimes what makes them charming is their. Their faux pas, their public faux pas, their societal faux pas. I like that, and I just like her. I think she's really good.

[Monet X Change]

And you are Wanda.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You.

[Monet X Change]

You really want to change her name to Wanda Talk today, don't you? Talking about Jack V's and monetize on you are Wanda. Fucking talk.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Want to talk? About what?

[Monet X Change]

About your favorite. Drag queens are annoying. Yeah.

[Ad Read Announcer]

So you.

[Monet X Change]

You must be your favorite drag queen, then.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm an A. Listen, no one's ever been annoyed by me, not once. Amanda was on the international tour of Kinky Booze. That's really sickening. She is a real theater girl, like. Like in these streets. Real theater girl.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I wonder.

[Monet X Change]

I wonder how many failed.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Quote, unquote. Quote, unquote.

[Monet X Change]

I didn't say. They say this about themselves, about how many failed BFA girlies were actually on Broadway. Like, was Rose up on Broadway?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, she was off Broadway in Titanique after Drag Race.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Jam.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And if it wasn't on Broadway, she's an international tour. I think she might have been doing it with that little Lady Camden. Not little Lady Camden. I'm sorry, With Lady Camden.

[Monet X Change]

Lady Camden was on the tour of Kinky Boots.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She was on a tour of Kinky Boots as well. Yes.

[Monet X Change]

Work. Was Jan ever on a tour on Broadway?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No. Janet. Jan is on Off Broadway.

[Monet X Change]

And what about Alexis Michelle?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Alexis. Michelle's never done Broadway. Milan from Drag Race is actually just finishing up a Broadway show right now. She's finishing up.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, Marcia. Marcia. Marcia. Right.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What is that? She's going to what?

[Monet X Change]

Marcia. Marcia.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Marcia Marsha added to Kit Kat Club Ensemble and Broadway's Cabaret. Oh, it's Kit Kat Club.

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

Cabaret is coming back to Broadway. And Marshall. Marjorie. Marcia is in it, and she's the understudy for the MC as well.

[Monet X Change]

Good for her. Okay, Marcia.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Marcia has a Broadway credit. Ginger Minj has a Broadway credit. Milan has a Broadway credit. There's a few more.

[Monet X Change]

Peppermint.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Peppermint has a Broadway credit. But these are girls that have Broadway credits.

[Monet X Change]

Before Drag Race, though, and Beyonce, Bianca had one. Not for being on the stage, but being. She worked on Broadway.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She worked in a costume shop for

[Monet X Change]

opera and theater, and I worked on 39th and Broadway.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But to be clear, Bianca did not work on Broadway. She worked for a costume shop that provided things on Broadway. It's not really the same thing.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, Jason's.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It is adjacent, but it's not the same thing.

[Monet X Change]

Just to be clear, closer than you,

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

there was one girl in the UK who is like, a real. A Broadway girl and did shows on the West End.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, I don't know.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, the one who. The one who kind of who, like, is like a daddy out of drag.

[Monet X Change]

I have no idea.

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

Hell of a day.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Hell of a day.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, yeah. Hell of a day.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah. So let's go to Team Geneva. So. So Maya is so quiet. I can't stand whisper, bitches. People who whisper drive me. I'm like, bitch, speak. The. I. I need you to speak up. And I know it's not intentional, but. Bitch, speak up, Bitch. Speak up.

[Monet X Change]

I think it's a little exaggerated for camera because, like, I. I don't think she's whispering as much as they're intimating. I really don't think so. I think it's. It's extra for camera. Camera. She's not on stage. Like, she's not doing that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

The other girls are saying it.

[Monet X Change]

I mean, the girl, but her also. It's not for these other sideline bitches to hear. It's for my immediate team to hear.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And if they can hear me, I

[Monet X Change]

don't care if y' all can hear.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But doesn't she seem like the quiet type?

[Monet X Change]

I mean, RuPaul does say that to her a lot.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She seemed like, type everyone in the dress room, and she in the corner, and she. She be like, bitch, speak up, bitch.

[Monet X Change]

Also, she says, like, Maya thinks that because there aren't kicks or split in the corner that it's not hard. I'm like, girl, splits and kicks aren't the only thing that makes it hard, girl. Right.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like. Like. Like doing like. Like a. Like. Like, for example, when. You know, when some of this shit is hard to do, it's because it's about court. It's about coordination.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You know that move? That move. I don't know if you remember it, but the move that Trinity did for what category? And I can never remember it, but Todrick choreographed it. And it's like. And it's like, what category are we on right now? And it's something that's, like, really? Like. It's like doing this.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It's like, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Megami is the struggle bus of this one. Megami is having a hard time with the choreography. She is not. But also, it doesn't seem like Geneva is the team captain because she's offering no direction to this group.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, my God. I wrote that. I wrote down. Doesn't matter who's the team captain. And I honestly, after, like, season, like, four or five, I really don't think it matters who's the team captain. If the team does fine. It's like, they don't. They don't be out here acting like. Like, they don't. Like, RuPaul doesn't do the thing like, who is the team captain? And, like. You know what I mean? Like, and so I don't think the team captain matters.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

They want to say, well, if RuPaul wants to fucking send you home, she'll ask who the team captain is.

[Monet X Change]

She shows up, and if I'm Geneva, if I'm not as strong. Well, no, she's. She's the dancing diva of Brownsville, so. She is. So. So she should be choreographing this thing. But I guess Maya is probably a stronger choreographer because maybe. I think she does it for the ensemble shows in Miami. She's a part of.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Obviously, this team made the right choice, because, I mean, spoiler, they won. So having Maya choreographer was obviously.

[Monet X Change]

I haven't seen it yet.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I know, I know, I know. Nymphia toured with a K pop girl group. The resumes on this season are wild.

[Monet X Change]

They're great. And Nymphia Gangirl always keeping a little something in her back pocket. And honestly, I like that shit. People are like, ugh, I can't believe she did. I'm like, no, bitch. Like, do not tell everybody you're a designer. Don't tell everyone you can sell. Like, when it comes time to do your thing. Fucking do your thing. And she's showing her groove. She can dance. And I think keeping your cards close to your chest on Drag Race, I think is a wise thing. It impresses RuPaul more. It impresses the other girls. It impresses us. Well, I mean, when we're watching it, we're seeing it unfold, so not so much us at home, but I think that is a wise way. That is the wise thing to do on Drag Race. I really do.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think it's good for tv, but I don't know how good it is for, like, Drag Race, like, for the competition. Like, a lot of the winners have been really open about their talents from the. From the get. Like, Sasha, Kobe wasn't, like, hiding anything. Sasha, Kobe wasn't hiding little corners of her talent in her pocket. Bianca wasn't doing this. Violet wasn't doing this. I didn't do this. James didn't do this. Bebe didn't do this. But you are. But you see queens who hide their little talents, and they have a big impact, and it does make for a good TV moment. But I actually don't know how great it is for, like, Chi Chi pretty much let us know out the gate that she could do all those flips and stuff, and it didn't diminish it. When we saw them, we were still gagging. Like, when Maya did that fucking backflip in the number, I was still gagged. I was like, God damn, that bitch can fucking go. I don't think I would have been really shocked if she didn't tell us she could do it. But even though she walked in saying, I'm a flipping queen every time she flips, it's still so impressive to me.

[Monet X Change]

I don't think that it, like, it changes the competition. But I think that, for example, we did not know that Nymphia could sew. We saw her working on her thing not even a little bit in the workroom. So what happened?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Nothing. Nothing.

[Monet X Change]

Oh. So when she. So when she pops out with that incredible fucking thing on the Runway, everyone was like, oh, my God. I had, like. Cause we had no idea that that was even, like, she could do anything in that, like, you know, realm. So I think it is a. It gives a little gag. It gives a little, like, oh, shit. This is really cool that you can do this.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It's great tv. It is great tv. I don't know how much it helps in the competition. I mean, being able to sew helps in the competition. Hiding that you can sew isn't necess. I don't know that we have any evidence that actually helps you outside of just happening to be able to make a really good tv.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. As someone who watches it on tv, I'm not in the workroom. It makes me have a better time watching the show.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That's fair to say. Nymphia gagged me when she was like, I think she was gonna finally get her wish to be out of the top. I was like, damn, Nymphia. At her up for that one. That was wild. Okay, so during the makeup, I really feel bad for Amanda because I think that what PJ is doing to Amanda is making it where Amanda is constantly on the defense. Even so, anytime PJ opens her mouth, Amanda is. Has to rear her back like a cat, just on the chance PJ might say something off the wall. And that cannot be a good feeling. That cannot be a good feeling.

[Monet X Change]

So I. So I was playing devil's advocate earlier, but I honestly, I do agree with you. I do think that Q. So. Q. So they're all doing their makeup, but also, I feel like Q is making this a bigger moment than it needs to be. Q is. They're all doing their makeup. Q has to take her time to come over and address PJ about her saying the thing that was allegedly cunty. I was like, y' all are Making this moment bigger than it has to fucking be. Like, it is really not that deep, girl. I just said that. I just said that if I was in the top. I don't mean complaining. Like, do you think that. Do you think that this moment is warranted? I think it's so extra for no fucking reason.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, it's very cute to make something big, but also, I don't think it's, like, we don't get to decide.

[Monet X Change]

I know I invalidate her feeling.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You want me to answer it, or do you want to answer for me?

[Monet X Change]

Which one is it? Because I know it's an invalid harmony.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, since you already know my answer, let's move on to the next topic. You know, I think that Q saying, I wasn't trying to invalidate your feelings is crazy, because she knew that's what she was doing. She was trying to intentionally step on that moment and make it seem like her idea was less like, what her stance on this feeling is a better take than Q's stance on the feelings. And you. It is not up to us to decide whether. Whether or not we feel like Q handled this. Well, we don't know how much that affected Q.

[Ad Read Announcer]

You do.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We have no clue how much that affected Q. You know what I mean?

[Monet X Change]

Clearly, she has a lot of feelings. Clearly, Q has a lot of feelings going on through her head. Clearly.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like, especially when you go back and watch Laganja the.

[Monet X Change]

The group.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, I feel bad for her because everyone keeps going on about how bad she was and how annoying she is and how she. Like, they just. They just will not. And it's not. They're not just. They're not just attacking her drag. They're attacking her character. And everyone's in a group. Like, yeah, it's. Yeah, we hate. Yeah, this is fake. And, like, when you bring it from every corner, you're like, what? You're like, guys, fuck off. Like, leave me the fuck alone. When you watch that back, it's easy to be like, I can see how easily Laganja could reach that point. And I think that Q addressing it right the fuck away is fierce. Waiting for what happened right away. I mean, not in the moment. Okay, sure. Not in the moment. But, like, the next day she did. It was yesterday.

[Monet X Change]

Two days later.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Is it?

[Monet X Change]

Yes, because it happened to fallout they had the next day when they got the challenge and they rehearsed. Then it's the next day when they're preparing for the Runway. It's two days later.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, still, I think that her addressing it before she get a chance to do it again is I think that being like, I want to talk about this. I did not like how this felt and I want to talk about it. I think that's mature. I don't think you have to wait until she attacks you five times in a row. You know what I mean?

[Monet X Change]

But also, she gets what she wants. PJ literally apologizes.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And this is the thing that would

[Monet X Change]

make me pop off. Yeah, well, just be mindful of what you say to me now. That is inflammatory and that is going to make me say something back that is going to make the situation.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't mind Q addressing her. It is a little dramatic, but I don't mind it. What was really wild was, rest assured, I definitely have more respect for you than Amanda. That was insane. That was completely out of pocket. I love that Amanda gathered her like a fucking cheap chignon. And then. And then when she brings it up, PJ does the worst that you could do in the situation is just some fun shade girl. Relax. Like when you, like, aggress someone and you're like, oh, my God, I'm literally just kidding. Why are you being so uptight? Like, have fun. Like, be fun like the rest of us. Oh, my God, you're being so dramatic while you're really sensitive. That's crazy.

[Monet X Change]

I also think what's happening is that. Is that, like, again, a lot of the girls, like, and even. Even before that, I forgot who said it, but they were all, like, three of them had came for Amanda and, like, made reads at her. But I think what's happening is that the relationship between PJ and Amanda, obviously there's tension there. So it's okay for, like, the other girls who are, quote, unquote, her friends, like Q and dawn, to read, like, dawn read her, like, twice before that about. About the same things, but those are her friends, and she's developed this relationship with them, and she doesn't have that same relationship with pj. So when PJ says it, she comes at her and she's really upset by it. But when the other girls read her, it's cool. Like, if, like, Bob and Naomi make fun of me, that's fine. But if Luxx Noir London comes like, yeah, Monet, with them, with them, with them. Little kitty. Ugly ass. Pussycat. Wigs, Bitch, what the fuck you talking to? I don't know you, bitch, but it's a difference.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Megami was like, well, are you gonna look different for the quick drag? And PJ was like, I have. It was basically like, I have Little to no respect for Amanda. There's a difference between, like, oh, girl, you're gonna look. Your makeup's gonna be bad again. And then straight up being like, as an artist, I don't respect you.

[Monet X Change]

No. But they're all ragging on her looks. And, like. I mean, for the most part, PJ

[Bob the Drag Queen]

has been like, yes, Amanda. She wasn't like her drag. She wasn't like the way she looked. This was a. By the way, this wasn't a conversation about looks. This is a conversation about personalities. Q was like, my. When I shared my feelings, you negated them. I shared my feelings. She didn't say I wore my drag. She didn't say I did my look. She didn't say I wore my wig. She goes, I told you about my. I showed my personality. I. I opened up to you, and you disrespected me. To which she said, well, I have more respect for you than I have for Amanda. It wasn't even about her looks. It wasn't even about her drag. She was just like, as a person, I don't respect Amanda.

[Monet X Change]

I'm talking about in general. I'm not talking about just one isolated incident. I'm talking about all the other times that PJ has come for Amanda in a time when everyone else has been reading Amanda for looks. I'm talking about the pastimes and looks, and I think this is just dogpiling or snowpiling on top of all these other instances where Amanda always feel like PJ's coming for her, even though everyone else is. You know what I'm saying?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think it's weird that PJ could muster up an apology to Amanda, but she could not find a way to resolve. I mean, PJ could muster up an apology for Q. No atonement, just an apology, but she could not find a way to do that same thing with Amanda. That is wild. But it's because she said out loud she respects Q more than she respects Amanda. So because she doesn't respect Amanda as much, she doesn't feel the need to apologize to her.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, for sure. And also, I just. They haven't had a chance to have a moment to, like, get there, and maybe they never will. Maybe they have, but maybe they haven't. I mean, at the beginning of the season, they had some tweets going back and forth. I don't remember. I think they were at, like, a good place now, but they clearly not have had the time to kind of be like, girl, what's the tea? And, like, really settle the Differences.

Let's go on to RuPaul and the judges runways. I mean, TS Madison is back. I'm so glad that Madi's back.

[Monet X Change]

And congratulations on your Emmy. Maddie.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What did Maddie win an Emmy for?

[Monet X Change]

For when Drag Race won the Emmy. She won for best reality competition. She got an Emmy because she's.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

As a producer.

[Monet X Change]

Good. No. Cause. Well, yes. And she's a judge on the. She's a permanent judge. So she got an Emmy.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Good for her. Congratulations to T.S. madison.

[Monet X Change]

I love this wig. I want this wig. Her and the Icona pop girl have both had bantu knots.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I love RuPaul's dress so much.

[Monet X Change]

This is very beautiful.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think that Zaldi and that shoe.

[Monet X Change]

Look at RuPaul and the shoe. RuPaul don't be wearing closed sold shoes.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Okay, so let's go on to the performances. All right, so the first group is called qdsm. That stands for. And Morphine.

[Monet X Change]

Morphine's pussy. And that's lit. She is on the floor, honey. Word.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So for qdsm, which is their initials. Let's go over each person. You want to go over the group and then each person. I have notes for the group. Then we'll go over each person's verse. How does that sound to you?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, yeah, let's do that. Sounds good.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So Q's Q is better than she was in rehearsal, but she's a little bit clunky. Like, she's a little clunky. And why does she look so out of place? Like, why is. Why is she the only. Everyone is wearing some sort of a warm red and she's the only one wearing blue and white. And on a very uncue like note, her outfit looks so bad. It looks worse than every everyone of the night. It is.

[Monet X Change]

Morphine's wearing green. She's not wearing red. I thought they just had to wear primary colors. And I thought that maybe dawn stuck out because, like, Morphine's wearing green. Hugh's wearing blue. Sapphira's wearing red, and dawn is wearing, like, a burgundy or pink.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, I guess I saw the burgundy and pink, and I just thought, I'm colorblind, so I thought the green was a red. But I think that Q's standing out for all the wrong reasons. And because her outfit looks the. Out of every queen on stage. Q's performance outfit was bad. It was the worst one, in my opinion.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. I didn't feel that strongly about it. I thought it just looked like a dance costume. I wasn't offended by it like everyone else. Like, clearly the judges were. But, yeah, I thought, in my opinion, dawn was the one that stuck out, but not in a bad way, but just. She didn't. Like, they were all wearing primary and she didn't. But Q was a bad dancer. Bad dancer, yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Morphine was really good, and she moves really well. I like Q's voice, and I like what Q did by herself, but as she was in the group, it was just. Every time I kept. I could not stop looking at her. But it wasn't because she was killing it. It's cause she was just, like, pulling focus in a really bad way.

[Monet X Change]

And did you notice that when they were had. When they had, like, the group parts, Sapphira was always singing the lead vocal, and all the other girls were singing the chorus part. Did you notice that?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I did not notice that, no.

[Monet X Change]

I was like, bitch work. I wonder if that was, like, a conscious decision or that's just, like, what happened.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think that dawn did a good job, but she really ruined our chances of making it through one entire episode of Drag Race without a girl calling herself dumb. We almost made it the entire episode with, you know, I'm gonna say it again. Make. Make drag smart again. Make Drag smart again. And, dawn, you are. You're. You are to blame for this episode being dumb because you wanted to be dumb so bad. Let's go to Morphine.

[Monet X Change]

Morphine said, well, if that. If she is dumb and that is part of her thing, I think that's okay too. I don't think she has to, like, not do it. Like, if that is your thing, then go off.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

If you want to be dumb, be dumb. I think this whole, like, I'm so stupid is annoying. I don't like it. I don't like. I've iterated before. I don't like this direction of drag that everyone wants to be dumb now. All these dumb bitches want to be dumb bitches. And to me, they look dumb when they want to be dumb, but I guess they're nailing it.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. I think that if I'm not, I agree with you. I don't think it's being dumb for dumb sake. But if that is like, your thing, then go off, which I don't really know. I don't really know what Dawn's thing is. I know she's, like, obviously really good at makeup and she's, like, fashiony, so I don't know if, like, dumb is her thing or not. Maybe it doesn't mean I don't fucking know. Let's talk about morphine. So morphine, Morphine, like the drug, but no relation. Winning all the shows you stay in admiration, fascination, even a standing ovation. I'm the only reason for your fixation the flawless the face, the beauty, the taste Savor it. Cause you can't replace. Yeah, bitch. Dama lo toro pera Ow.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, I mean, she did a good job. It didn't, like, blow my mind, but she did a good job, though.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, I think she did a good job.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Q said, I strut in in a fashion Serving looks my passion Leaving it on the stage, no crashing, you cannot stop me Just one letter, nobody better slaying every way. These lyrics are not great. Her voice sounded great, but these lyrics are just not good.

[Monet X Change]

She sounded really good, actually. I was very impressed. Like, I was like, oh, wow, she can sing Sapphira, which. I loved Sapphira's hair and I loved her outfit and I love these shoe covers. I think that Sapphira was fabulous.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Her entire look is amazing. She looks very good.

[Monet X Change]

Got you gagging on my dragon, baby, you need to breathe. Turning nothing into something like you wouldn't believe My one desire to inspire what you can and can't see. Sapphira's here, baby. There's no limit to what you'll achieve. I bring the heat by keeping my cool. I look like this. You look. You look a damn fool. I love that moment. That was cute. So listen up, kids. You're about to get school. Sapphira, Cristal is fearless, Crown Jewel. Fabulous.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

These lyrics are great. She look, look at. Maybe they can show this on the screen. You can send this document over to Jay. Look at how many lyrics Q got in and how many lyrics Sapphire got in. I'm going between the two. This is cues giving. I have long legs. She like. And Sapphira wrote a full on dissertation girl.

[Monet X Change]

She's trying to get her doctorate. Yeah. Work.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And I did not see this whole, like, Sapphira in her head. I didn't see all these critiques. They were giving Sapphira.

[Monet X Change]

I agree. And when they said it, they showed that one clip, the, like three second thing where she was like, moving backwards. I was like, okay, I guess I can see it here. But when I watched the performance originally, I didn't see that either. Yeah, yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And. And during Untugged, Sapphire was like, Maddie was the only one who said that. Which I like that she said. I didn't. I did not see this. I did not see this. Sapphira unsure of herself, like, within. The other girls were like, yeah, Sapphira seemed really like, un. I just. I. I still saw confidence. I think she did a good job. She looked. I think she might have looked the best. No, top two out of looking the best. Well, I know she looked the best. I'm gonna give my homegirl plasma number two because her look was also really good.

[Monet X Change]

I wonder. I wonder. That cat, too. Plasma hat. I want to know who made it. Plasma. Who made that? Who made that? Katsu, bitch.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Stop trying to buy clothes off the wall.

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

It was Whitney.

[Monet X Change]

Really?

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

Black and white stripes.

[Monet X Change]

Whitney, I'm hitting you up for one.

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

Wait, no, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Sorry. No, that was wrong. I wasn't given a mandatory meeting. My bad.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It was not Whitney, stop biting off of all the girls. Look, you keep telling me I will

[Monet X Change]

buy these girls clothes.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You're trying to buy Q's fucking Judy dress. You're trying to buy that.

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

Stop.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Get your own style.

[Monet X Change]

Okay? Do you think she recreated her Judy Garland little.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, you're trying to. You're trying to. You're trying to bite. You're trying to bite off of a bite. There's a small bite. You someone. She took a bite. You got to take the bite out of her mouth. Take a bite off that.

[Monet X Change]

And you've been batting off of me for 11 years now. So what's your excuse? Right?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I've been a Drake for 15 years.

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

That was Plasma's tattoo. Is Garo Sparrow.

[Monet X Change]

Oh.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh.

[Monet X Change]

I had to refinance my house for Gara Sparrow. Girl.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Girl. Anyway, let's move on to Dawn. Oh, my God, Babe, wake up. Oh, my God. Babe woke up. It's Dawn. Silly little Phillies with my ear elf ears on. Not a part of your world. It's all my own. Oh, it was. Don said. So dumb. So cunt. Your mind is blown. Why you want to be dumb bitch? Anyway, from the start laying bars. Did you know there is life on Mars? I really love that line. Galaxy fantasy turning looks set and free. And can I be honest? I'M a star, baby. These lyrics are not great, but I really loved her performance.

[Monet X Change]

Bitch, you thought you the shit. You're not even a fart.

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

What is the Ice Spice discourse?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What does that do?

[Monet X Change]

Bye. Get on the Ice Spice.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, but why did you just say that? I don't get it.

[Monet X Change]

Because that line made me remind me of that from the start. Later.

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

Oh, that's. That's a lyric from Ice Spice's new single that she just put out.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, I know you think you. Yeah, you think.

[Monet X Change]

Bitch.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Made me think. But I'm thicker.

[Monet X Change]

I know that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't understand why Monet just said it.

[Monet X Change]

No, I made me think of it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

From where? What line made you think of that?

[Monet X Change]

The one about Mars. Fart fart, Mars.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Let's.

[Monet X Change]

I had a random association. Why you?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Why you. I didn't. I literally didn't say anything.

[Monet X Change]

You said everything and what you didn't say, Bob. I know you, nigger.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Excuse you. Black History Month. Wow. I literally just. All I said was, let's move on. You took a lot. You extrapolated a lot from that. Let's move on.

[Monet X Change]

Since we all know this, Bob has been up obsessed with the word extrapolate for the past, like, three months. You literally every podcast, you work the word extrapolate into the.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah. And you. And you work the word airs and hair and here into every conversation. So, yeah.

[Monet X Change]

Okay, let's go on to the second group. I thought this group was strong.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

This group is called Lover Girls. This group is Lover Girls.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, Lover Girls. I did think that. I did think that Plane Jane was the standout in this group for me, but I really enjoyed Plasma's costume. Like, I thought that was very sexy. I thought she looked really good. But I think Plane Jane was the best in the group.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Plasma looks amazing. Amanda sounds really good. That wig is eating her up. Poor, poor Amanda. Her aesthetic will be the will obviously will be her downfall. As we see, Xunami does have a really great walk, and Jane had a really good verse, and I really liked her look. Let's go on. Each girl individually.

[Monet X Change]

Plasma. When I was younger, my mama said to me, just be yourself, baby. The rest comes naturally. Being a queen is a state of mind. Be true to yourself. Share love, be kind. Remember, girls, rule number one. Have fun, whatever you are, better be a damn good one.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I mean, she is corny. So this is very, like, anthem. She always wants to do an anthem. She's like, if you watch her meet the queen, she's like, I'm gonna be the voice. I'M gonna be the one to take the. The queer community to the mountaintop. Like, she really thinks she's Martin Luther Queen.

[Monet X Change]

So lame. So lame.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But she sounded amazing. I think her verse. Her verse was good.

[Monet X Change]

You know,

[Bob the Drag Queen]

she wants to write the next Pride anthem. Like a small boat on the ocean making big waves in.

[Monet X Change]

She wants to write that because that'll be inappropriate. She wrote a moana.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No. I could see Plasma trying to write. This is my fight song. Take back my life song.

[Monet X Change]

Like.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like Plasma would sing. That's the kind of. That's the kind of song Plasma would do at Pride. I think I've done a song at Pride, but that's just who Plasma is. And honestly, I just. I just accept her where she is. But that being said, she was very good.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, my God, you're upset. Oh, my God. You are fucking sucking pla. You was fucking sucking the plasma out of her dick, girl.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, I am. I like Plasma. Is it okay? Is it okay to like people? You don't mind, do you? Next, let's go into a mandatory meeting. Someone told me who I am is wrong but no, but now I trust myself I know that I am strong no, it doesn't matter who hurt me in the past because now I got Now I love on myself I'm going out so I can throw this ass These are not great lyrics, but she's her performance. What's so funny? What are you laughing about?

[Monet X Change]

Reading these lyrics out loud.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, one more time.

[Monet X Change]

Someone told me who I am is wrong but now I trust myself I know that I am strong no, it doesn't matter who hurt me in the past because now I love on myself I'm going out so I could throw this ass

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I mean, I think sometimes when you take a song and break it down and you read it out loud, it can be really hard to, like, you know, like, here's a. Like, it can be really hard to see the beauty in the song, and I understand that. That is not lost on me. You know what I mean? Like, for example, when I take the song, it's my house and I live here. It's my house and I live here. There's a welcome mat at the door, and if you come in, you're gonna get much more. There's my chair. I put it there. Everything you see is with love and care. You would think that's not a great song, but when you hear Diana Ross sing, you're like, this is a great song. It's my house.

[Monet X Change]

My house. Oh. Oh, wow. I didn't know what song that was Exactly.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So in these girls defense, when you say them without singing them, it loses a lot of context and a lot of meaning. That being said, I think her performance was great. She did a good job. Her voice sounded really good. Only thing is, girl, this wig is eating you up. Amanda, this wig is eating you up.

[Monet X Change]

You know, I think Amanda is someone who can really benefit from. From seeing herself on television and seeing what she looks like and then she'll come back from an all stars and I think she will gag the girl. I think she would really stand from seeing what she looks like on television and really helping her out on her drag.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You want to do Tsunami?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, I like Tsunami a lot. I really like Tsunami. Okay, come on strut find July Turn your head to the left and shake it to the right Cute face, tight waist she's got it all can't tell me nothing now Cause I'm here with Ms. Paul. God. Good looks with the attitude Came through from the good to shake the groove Came through from the good to shake the groove no no don't stop Let the love come through at the end of the day you got no one but you I like the first 2/3 of her verse and then the last one kind of gets. Sorry the first three quarters and the last one gets a little dicey. But I think she looked really good and I think she was selling and I loved how she was moving with her body when she that when she did that move and she framed her face. I really enjoyed Xunami's performance of her lyrics.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It was low key. Giving Ryan Murphy the season starts off strong but it ends poorly. This verse started off great and they did not have a great finish. But her walk really is sickening. I also loved this moment. She knows her beauty she knows that she looks good. And I will say in the first episode I was like where's this fashion? But this episode I see it. I agree she looks very good.

[Monet X Change]

And that chicken egg, honestly, so far it's one of the best looks of the season for me. Her fucking humpty dumpty look was incredible.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I agree. Let's go into playing Jane playing playing Jane Ms. Playing Jane Ms. Jane if you're nasty and if you're and if you're pipe real long Holla at me Booty fat and the body so right Got em flying on this plane all day and night don't play with me just play the track don't break my heart just break my back when you hear this song yes, it's Me come aboard. You're a real bad bitch with a grit. With a grits to love. Can I just say a really hot take?

[Monet X Change]

What? Oh, God.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

This sounds like a verse that was pre written. This verse is the only one that has nothing to do with the song. Like she just threw a word love at the very end and it's like, break my back, fuck my whole. By the way, these are great lyrics. I just want to say out loud, these are really good lyrics and I really love. Oh God, Bob.

[Monet X Change]

With the conspiracies. Here we go.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think that it just. It just.

[Monet X Change]

It just didn't seem like.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It seemed like it just didn't have anything to do with the theme it had at the end. She was like, girl, say love, everybody say love. My hole, rip my neck and everybody say love.

[Monet X Change]

Okay, so Bob, let me get this straight. So what you're saying is that it sounds like to you that this verse was pre written. Is that what you're. Is that what you're insinuating?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It sounds like she had this verse in mind before she was assigned the song, which honestly.

[Monet X Change]

It's okay though. We know there's gonna be a verse writing challenge. So go off. I'm not mad at it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I am not mad. All I'm saying, I'm just saying. Unless when she says love, she's referring to all the love making she's doing, then I would say, yeah. Then maybe if she's looking at love from a point of sex and sexuality, then I would say, yeah, she probably did write that. There. That being said, this is my favorite verse out of all the verses actually. And she looks. And she does look really good.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, yeah, I think she looks good. It's not my favorite look, but I think she looks good. Plasma, I think. I think plasma is my favorite look, but I do think Plane Gent, by far my best verse. It was really.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah. I'm gonna give Plasma number one. I was giving Sapphira, but they both look so good in such different ways. I'm gonna give it to Plasma. Plasma looks really fucking good. Let's go on to the third group, which is called Thicc. I think they actually call themselves the Thicks and the Stick. And I think Nymphia is the stick. In Untucked, they said the Thics and Thics and the stick, but RuPaul said thicc and Stick. Anyway, I think that Maya did such a. I was so impressed by her moves, by her dancing, the way that she. Her body looked great. Her body was really giving this Is where she shines.

[Monet X Change]

This is where she shines. Obviously. Like, we've all seen her viral videos of her day. Like, this is where she shines. This is her thing.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And she also was great with her Dade county line. I like so Dade County. I love that Geneva, when she's rapping, was a little offbeat. I was like, geneva's a little offbeat when she's rapping. She was trying to cram in a lot of fucking words. You know what I mean?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And I really think Megami fucking ate. Megami did such a good job. I just don't know why she wore this. The plainest black outfit she could literally get her hands on. This looks like a Capezio dance.

[Monet X Change]

No, it does not, Bob.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It is as plain as a black outfit can be. It is like. Like, it is so plain.

[Monet X Change]

But maybe that's the only black thing she had. And they were doing black and yellow.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I said. What I said is plain.

[Monet X Change]

Which also I have to tell y'. All. So for years, Bob, Naomi, Kim, Plastique and I have been talking about doing this Black and yellow tour. If we did the Black and Yellow tour, would you guys come see that? Anyway, let me go on to Maya's verse. Maya.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, and let's. I love Maya at the end, going cuckoo.

[Monet X Change]

I didn't notice that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It was so. It was. It really took me out. All right, let's go. Let's do my verse.

[Monet X Change]

Go ahead. Mo my easy. You made me feel like a dainty lady High heeled boots straight out of Haiti oh, she's Haitian, so 305. So Dayton county with my stank ass walk Boy, you know I'm crazy It's Dade County. She said Dade.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah. Miami's Dade County.

[Monet X Change]

Okay. All right. So Dade county with my stank ass walk Boy, you know I'm crazy It's the name they screaming when they see me flipping is the drag that took her, man. Bitch.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah. I love this verse. It's low key, Kind of giving city girls, which is very Dade County. Her performance was so that fucking backflip in place. Like when she flipped her feet in her hands and her feet were, like, in the same place. Does that make any sense?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

If you do a backhand spring, your feet go one place and your hands are like a few steps back in the air. She was like, feet, hands, feet, all in the exact same spot in the same, like, 2 square feet. It was very impressive. I love the yellow wig with the outfit. The kind of. It was just so good. I really loved it. Let's look on to Geneva Geneva clearing customs left and right Geneva car is just the right. She's like a. Is she a plane? It's like is the bit that she's like. It was all like plane airport themed. Clearing customs left and right Geneva cars just arrived La diva mas Latina that your eyes will ever see. I mean just look at me. I'm wet sickening. If you want to read there's a subtitles down here so you can keep up because baby I'm fierce. Move away or Ms. Carr will run you over. I did not love this verse. I got to say, honestly, she was the straggler of this group. Like, I feel like she. You could have pulled another girl. Like, you could have pulled Plane Jane and put her in this group. You could have pulled Amanda, put her in this group. You could have Sapphira put in this group and either one of those girls could have gotten a win. This episode, I believe.

[Monet X Change]

I think mor. I. I wouldn't say Amanda. I would say plain Morphine or Sapphira.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think that Amanda's performance was better than Morphe's performance.

[Monet X Change]

What I do work. Yeah, she was definitely this. This was the weakest verse by far. By far. Let's go. Oh, J. Jacob had this in here, the tweet. But we already talked about about Megami talking about writing Nymphia's version. Verse this, Momi's verse. Down on your knees pray to me Because Megami is the goddess that you pay to see that's M E G A M I what clear the one way watch a big girl strut it's just, it's just the beginning I'll keep your head spinning and all the boys send in you better start winning. That's good. Ain't nobody ever eat the Runway like I do Running over on through on, on Running over on the rough drive

[Bob the Drag Queen]

through I will say this while I think this verse is great. You cannot say. You can't come on the show and be like, no one eats the Runway like me when so many girls have better runways than you. I mean, it's a great line. But if, like, Q would have said it or if, like Nymphia, Nymphia would have said, I'd be like, oh, yeah, for real. Like, when RuPaul says, Call me mother, it's because we all call her mother. But if someone else, if some other queen was like, if some baby queen was like, call me mother, like, bitch, we ain't calling you fucking mother. Who the fuck are you? You know what?

[Monet X Change]

I mean, I will say that little bit. That little bit. That part in the middle, that's M E, G A M, I. What?

[Ad Read Announcer]

Claire?

[Monet X Change]

The one where we watch a big girl strut. It's just the beginning. I keep your head spinning and all the boys sinning. You better start winning. That's a great little chunk.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

This actually might be. I'm trying to think of. This verse is playing Jane. This actually might be one of the better verses. I don't know. This is a really, really good verse. And also, she wrote two verses.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, her and Imphia. Well, don't. Girl, do not claim Geneva's. Don't say you did that one.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But she edited Maya's verse. She edited Geneva's verse.

[Monet X Change]

Geneva's.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So we don't know what Geneva would have gave us.

[Monet X Change]

They were sabotaged, girl.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We don't know what Geneva's original. This is the edited version.

[Monet X Change]

Woof.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, this is actually one of the better versions. This is top three. I'm going to give Sapphira, Jane and Megami the top three verses for me so far.

[Monet X Change]

I'm into that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And this is really good. Like Megami ate this episode. Except this fucking black catsuit. Even a bolero or a trim on it would have made it nicer. A collar, Anything.

[Monet X Change]

I like the bodysuit.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That scans for you. That scans for you.

[Monet X Change]

Let's talk about what scans for you. Bitch. Check out. Can you read Nymphia's, please?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Gone with the wind I'm fabulous. These mother tucking hoes can't handle us breaking wind Serving fashion acting up like Ru said.

[Monet X Change]

Action.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Gonna catch banana fever. I'll make you a believer. Food from Taiwan Just to say hello, I'm Nymphia. You better vote yellow. This was a great verse and she did a really good job with it. And shout out to Megami and Tanifia for. Shout out to Nymphia's ghostwriter, Megami. And shout out to Nymphia for being able to perform a stunning performance.

[Monet X Change]

I was there. One thing Nymphia will do, she will raise that little leg. She's done it in every episode so far. This bitch will raise that little leg in a number and she'll mention bananas. Yes, bananas. And raise a leg. Let's go into the runways. So I mean, congratulations, everyone.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You're getting a long episode today and we love you all, so just enjoy.

[Monet X Change]

I mean, the fact that they did a pussycat Runway, Bob. I mean, I am the Pussycat queen.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You know, you are known for a pussycat wig.

[Monet X Change]

I am RuPaul. Cohen started saying pussycats after season 10 when I. Which I did not wear them that often. I mean, I wore them in many challenges all the time because they were easy. And I wore them in, like, two runways. And he was like, money. Why you got the little pussycat wigs on?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm like, bitch, why you always got

[Monet X Change]

a long wig on? Answer my question.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You wore them enough. I wore them like three times, which is enough.

[Monet X Change]

Enough. Let's go on to Morphine. So Morphine is obviously, her dress is fashioned after Michelle Pfeiffer's Catwoman with the kind of.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But it's also low key. Got a little bit of vamp in it, too. Like a little bit of Grace Jones. No. Or like. Or David. What's his name Guy. He's a famous singer. He's dead. David. David Bowie. David Bowie painted by Keith Haring.

[Monet X Change]

I don't think I know this. Let me look it up.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

David Bowie did a look with Keith Haring. I want to say, yeah, David Bowie painted this outfit for Keith Haring. Did I make that up? Well, he had an outfit that looked like it was, I guess. Oh, no, I thought he did have one. Anyway.

[Monet X Change]

I don't know what you're talking about.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It's like David Bowie in the red pants. And. And got. Mick did an oma. A nod to it. Just, just, just the silhouette kind of has this. I don't know where. Why. Oh, no, they weren't red pants. They were. They were black. And then Mick did it in red, and they kind of confused my mind. But anyway, it kind of gives a. I really like this look. And it's a little. I like the hair more than I like the look, if I'm being fully honest. But I do like this look. And she looks really stunning. This is a good look.

[Monet X Change]

Morphine is such a beautiful queen and she always looks. Her face is always perfect. And I love this kitty cat. I love how she, like, stoned the fringe of the kitty cat wig. I think she looks great. I don't understand this. Like, the slashes on her ass. She had a bbl. I guess Morphe will tell us about his bbl. She will keep on letting us know that she had a bbl. We got it, Morphine. We believe you.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Also, Michelle being like, you're more than a BBL is rich. Coming from the queen who wouldn't stop talking about her implants for like, nine seasons, that was rich.

[Monet X Change]

Let's go on to Q, who she said. She said something in her voiceover that she. That this. This steel Corset is like. Is like sucking it into inch of her life. I was like, q, you can go further. You can go further, baby. You can go further. Like, it's not. It's not sucking her into within an inch of her life like, that. Corset is not like. But it looks good.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Not everyone corset trains. And, you know, if you look at your first time putting on a corset versus now, you'll realize that your body has gone in more. My body, when you corset train, you are literally shifting your organs. So when I. So when I corset it, I'm sure it looks way more severe now than it did when I started. Maybe Q's just not far enough in her corset training journey to be that cinched. That being said, this fucking outfit is beautifully made. Q might be one of the best costume designers in the history of RuPaul's Drag Race. Her stitching, her pattern, making her execution is remarkable. This fucking in her details are immaculate. That fucking helmet, this collar, the. The everything. This is a fucking beautiful garment. She's showing skin. Those are her legs.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, I agree. I think this is. I think this is a very beautiful look. I don't understand, though. So. So is what's happening that we're saying that she was cut? She put the sword in her mouth and it cut her. Oh, she killed. I don't understand why she's bleeding. Do you get it?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think she's bleeding because she's a. Because she's a knight and she's fighting. Like she fought someone. So she had some blood on her because she got into a fight?

[Monet X Change]

No, but she pulled the sword out of her mouth and that was the thing. Like, she came out the thing.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, she licked sword. She didn't pull out of her mouth. She just licked it.

[Monet X Change]

She was licking it. That what that was?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah. Pulled the sword from her throat, Monet. She just licked it.

[Monet X Change]

Well, I thought that was. She was trying to, like, sell us. Like, she, like, pulled out and then. Why is she bleeding from her eyeball?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She got into a fight, Monet. She's a fucking knight. I don't know. I didn't dissect it like that. I think this look is amazing.

[Monet X Change]

I don't think it's good, but I just want to understand the fucking story. Like, you're bleeding from your eyes. I was like, are you a vampire? I was confused as to what was happening, but this is a very immaculate look, and I think she looks great.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Okay, let's go on to Sapphira, Cristal. I loved this look. At first I was like, this kitty cat wig is weird. But then when it became an actual kitty cat and her bald cap is

[Monet X Change]

great, I thought for a second she was a bald queen. Right? That's right. Or maybe she shaved her head for this. I think she shaved her head.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't think she did. We'll know next episode because if we see her in the. If we see her in any fucking interviews or talking heads and she.

[Monet X Change]

Right, yeah, you're right. They wouldn't let her do that. Yeah. I think this is a great look. Dr. Evil and the Cat, if you don't know, Dr. Evil is a character from Austin Powers. He has a cat.

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

He.

[Monet X Change]

He iconically does this. He puts his cap in the chair. This was a very smart look. I think Sapphira looks incredible. I love. I don't know what material is this? Is this like a leather or something?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, it looks. It looks to me like some sort of a cotton. Woven cotton to me.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, well, she looks really good. And it looks. I think it's.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I want to take a break from critiques for one second to tell you all that you can come see me and Monet on May 5 at just for Laughs. If it's just for laughs. No, it's not Just for laughs. Netflix is.

[Monet X Change]

Netflix is a joke.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Everyone watches. You can go see me at Netflix is a Joke Doing Sibling rivalry Live, you can get [e-mail] and you'll be seeing a live podcast with a special guest who we have yet to announce.

[Monet X Change]

And also, y' all can see me at Joe's pub for my second run of shows. I'm doing 2-10-11th and 12th at Joe's Pub for my last dates of life Be life in New York City. So if you want to catch that show that I was the third highest selling show at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival this year. Well, last year, come see it on February 10th, 11th, and 12th at monaxchange.com

[Bob the Drag Queen]

There were only three shows at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

[Monet X Change]

Just gone.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And you can see me at the edges for laughs in Vancouver. Go to see the Drag Queen. I love that you come to my thing in Vancouver. You're not invited.

[Monet X Change]

I'm not coming to your show. I'm coming to one of the shows at the festival.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Not good, because you're not invited. You.

[Monet X Change]

You.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You literally.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, that's funny.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You lit. You literally won't be allowed in the building. So even if you try, I wouldn't do it. If I were you, let's go on to Dawn's look. This is not a kitty cat wig.

[Monet X Change]

It is from the back.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, this is a bowl cut on top of a kitty cat wig. Do what?

[Monet X Change]

She's wearing a kitty cat.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

This. The main thing of this wig is not a kitty cat wig. And they were like, I guess from the back, I thought they were really carving out some caveats for her because the back is, like, slick down or the black. The back has the short, short hairs. But if I have, like, a big ass afro and then the back has little bitty bitty. That's not a kitty cat wig. This is a bowl cut on top of a kitty cat wig. This is not a kitty cat wig.

[Monet X Change]

I like the.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You're not gonna convince me that it is, because it's not.

[Monet X Change]

I like this look. I think it's really cool. I love. Donna's really good at mixing different fabrics and textures to really give, like, a really interesting look. I love this, like, fucking finger bag thing. It's Dawn. You remember at a time in New York, there was this person who was making those hand. Those, like, long hand pillows. Do you know what I'm talking about?

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

No.

[Monet X Change]

I think dawn might be the person. Anyway, I like this look. It's like some alien monsters. High cool, eclectic person. I think this is a really cool look. It is more bold than kitty cat, but I still think she looks cool, and I like this look.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Dawn has one of the most unique aesthetics in the history of Drag Race. I truly believe that she is. I have not seen a queen on a show like this at all. And she's really consistently good looking. I'm still annoyed that this is, like, the assignment wasn't to look good. The assignment was to look good while wearing a kitty cat. And she's not wearing a kitty cat. So for me, I would not be as leany as the judges were.

[Monet X Change]

But what would you put in the bottom for it?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like, you're just not following the rules. Like, imagine they say kitty cat and you come out in a big ass wig and you're like, ha, ha. Like, but the back is a kitty cat. It's like. But you didn't. If the assignment is to wear red and you're wearing blue, what are you

[Monet X Change]

doing with some red highlights?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But I look good. Okay, but what are you doing? I have a little bit of red hair. But what are you doing, bitch? Let's go on to plasma, who I think looks really good. This look is so creative. Every part of this outfit looks good. I Love the fact that the ears are on headphones. I think her little pixie kitty cat is cute. It kind of reminds me of that one I used to have, the multicolor. You remember the little.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, remember her? Which we.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

My little fun Betty wig.

[Monet X Change]

We're trying not to.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Aw. What do you think about this look?

[Monet X Change]

I think she looks good. I think. I don't love the sleeves. I like everything else. I think if she did this whole thing without the sleeves, it would have still given very much Hermes, because Hermes, girl. Hermes is the messenger God, and he has the heirs. On the hat thing and on the shoes, I don't understand why she had to have wings on her hands on her arms. I think it would have been perfect without the sleeves. That being said, I love these shoes. Whoever made these fucking shoes is fierce, and I think she looks good.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Let's go on to Amanda's. Hurry meeting girl. I don't know what this is. This is when you're trying too hard to think out the box. This is when you're trying too hard. Just, baby, just wear a kitty cat wig. Baby, baby, you're doing too much.

[Monet X Change]

And she's saying her face is one of the eggs that's cracking in the middle. And that's like the chicken being the bird being born.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

This is bad.

[Monet X Change]

It's really bad. And it was just. But there are people. They're all like, the Amanda fans. I'm like, ugh, you guys just don't understand art. It's going way over your heads. You know what? You're probably right. Apparently, I don't understand art. And it's going in my head because this was a. Did not make any sense to me. I mean, I get what she's trying to do. It is not well done, and it does not look good.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

The execution is poor. Let's go on to Xunami. Xunami looks amazing. I love her walk. I love her attitude. I love that she's a stud.

[Monet X Change]

I love that she's a lipstick stud.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think that this. This whole look is just so good. Tsunami did a very good job.

[Monet X Change]

She's like. She, like. In this, like, one picture we have on the left there, she looks like. She looks like a really rich black auntie. Like, the really rich one.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

A really rich auntie?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. From Soul Food.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

The rich auntie from Soul Food.

[Monet X Change]

Not the rich auntie. Just a rich auntie from Soul Food.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, from the movie. Like, she would be the movie Soul Food.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. She could be the movie.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I haven't seen Sophie in a long Time. I should watch that movie again. I used to watch it, like, every year, but I haven't watched it in so long.

[Monet X Change]

Let's watch it together. Can we watch it together?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We certainly can. I mean, in April or whenever. Let's go on to plane. Jane. I like this look. I think this look looks really good. Yeah, it looks pretty good. It's not my favorite look, but it looks good, though.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, I think it looks good. I agree. Yeah. Like, I understand that this is a nice look and it looks good, but am I like, oh, my God, it's one of my favorites of the night? No, but I do understand it is nice and it looks good.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

This is a look I would much rather see with a ponytail. Like, I don't think that this look works with a kitty cat. I don't see why you would have a. I think what it is. This look just doesn't make sense with a kitty cat wig.

[Monet X Change]

I think you nailed it. You ate that. You're right.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You said. I'm what?

[Monet X Change]

I said you ate that. You're right. I agree.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, yeah. But the look itself is great. It just. I don't know why. Why this look needed to be a kitty cat. It just. This look would be much better with a ponytail.

[Monet X Change]

Let's talk about Ms. Geneva. She said something really bothers. She was like, that. She's giving flapper. I'm like, you're giving a flapper from, like, the chin up. Nothing else on. This is like, giving me flapper. And I don't understand why she kept on saying she was a flapper. Because you're not.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Can I say a horrible thing?

[Monet X Change]

What?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think. I think. I think.

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

No, let's keep on going.

[Monet X Change]

No, say it. I want to hear it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, it's just. I think it might be. I think Geneva may have shown us what she has to show us.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. I'm not impressed by this. And she was not great in this challenge either. This is.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think Geneva has shown us all, like, what she has to offer, and I think that is. It may or may not be time, you know?

[Monet X Change]

Does this give flapper to you?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Do what?

[Monet X Change]

Does this give flapper to you?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, there's nothing. There's the headband and the hair.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like, from the forehead up. Even the earrings don't say flapper.

[Monet X Change]

Allegedly. Apparently, Joella Puss tweeted something about Geneva and Brownsville. I didn't see it. Like, someone made a comment on one of our videos, and I was like, oh, I haven't been paying attention. I need to look up what Joelapa said.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Let's go on to Maya. Maya looks so good. Maya is. This is her episode to shine. This is truly her episode. She has had so many great moments this episode. She looks beautiful on the Runway. Her body looks great again. Her legs are thick.

[Monet X Change]

She. But they're padded.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I know, but it looks good. When we talk about Jimbo's boobs, we don't mean her actual boobs, bitch. When they compliment paying Jane's body, they're not complaining. Her actual body, bitch. We know.

[Monet X Change]

I gotta be a bitch, though.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't know why you have to be a bitch. You can stop anytime you want.

[Monet X Change]

Fuck off. Anyway, I think she looks cute. I do like these shoulders. I. Oh, wow. I never realized she had that chest piece. What does it say? Marilyn. Marilyn work. Yeah. I think that Maya looks good. Apparently, like, her designer who made a bunch of her looks pulled out, literally, as she was leaving, like, days before she left town.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, I've heard about that. Mistress Isabel Brooks broke that news. You didn't break the news. Mib did. You want to be her so bad. You will never be mib. You will never be mib. Dog bitches should never laugh.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, we're not talking about her. Oh, my God.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Let's go into Megami. I love that she's a pixie in a pixie. That's so funny to me. I think it's really clever. I wouldn't have even thought to do that. And also, how is she padded and showing her tattoos? I don't understand.

[Monet X Change]

What do you mean?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like, she's throwing. She's showing tattoos on her hips, but she's padded. I don't.

[Monet X Change]

I think. I think that the tattoos from the waist up are real. I think she's wearing, like, those stocking tattoos, tights, but she's padded, right? So, like, you know, like when Aquaria wears, she has those tights that have tattoos on them and she puts her padding in. Like they're like you put on. You put on your tights like normal. And the third layer just has tattoos on it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So you. You think that she just got some. You think she got some stock. Some leggings or some. Or some. Or some tights that look like her tattoos?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

This is very smart. However she did it is really good. I like this look.

[Monet X Change]

She got beat up. Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think she's a. She's a pixie. Down on her luck. Just a pixie. Having money does. Money does not like people. When people are bruised or bloody. Monet has a vendor. Why you bruise. Why you bleeding?

[Monet X Change]

When did I say that?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You said it about Q earlier. Why is this bleeding? Why she got blood?

[Monet X Change]

Because I don't get it. Let's go on to the last but not least, Nymphia, who I'm assuming that

[Bob the Drag Queen]

she's a pixie who was flying and fell because, like, her. Her, she keeps being showing, like her stuff isn't working anymore. She can't make her little pixie. She can't fly. So I'm assuming she fell and hit her lip. That's what I'm assuming.

[Monet X Change]

Nymphia, who turned this category out, she had three different reveals. First, she comes out in this hat. And I love how she had this hat and this. Like. She looks so fucking good. Her body looks amazing. She reveals to the black wig, and she takes it off. She has a red kitty cat under it, and she takes it off. And she has a pussy, pussy, A pussycat wig, which is a vagina on the back of her head with the wig on top of it. I think she's killed it. This look is so beautiful. She turned it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She does look good. My only critique is that her bald cap was really bad. It was a very bad bald cap. That's literally my only critique. I have nothing. I have nothing else back. This look is so stunning. So stunning.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, she looks great. She looks really good.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Best look of the night. Except she does lose some points because of how bad that ball cap was. It was so bad.

[Monet X Change]

I mean, I could. I don't think I could do a ball cap. So hats off to your mama. Props to your mama.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

If you can't do it, doesn't mean you can't critique it. You know what I mean?

[Monet X Change]

I know. I'm just saying, for me, in my house, we gonna serve the Lord.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So let's go on. Y' all getting a long episode today. You know what? I have time. Um, let's go on to the who

[Monet X Change]

should go home and why, which is so early. Bitch, we are three episodes in. How we getting to here already?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, so. So during the judging, this episode is longer.

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

The episode of Drag Race.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It is what it is. So Thick and Stick won the whole one. The whole team won, and each one of them got a win. They split. They each got $1,250. Every single girl got a win. I'm so honest. I was particularly thrilled that Megami got a win. I really wanted Megami to get a win. I'm happy that we found out that everybody else is up for elimination. Every single other person is up for elimination, that RuPaul is the hard hitting question, who should go home and why? And I have the results here. You want to talk about the results first? So Sapphira said Amanda, Morphine said Amanda, Q said Amanda and Xunami. I don't know why they let Q get away with saying two names. RuPaul is usually like, ru is often like, I need a name. Ru is often like, I need a name. But for some reason she's like, Q get away with saying Amanda Tsunami. Even in untucked Q was like, know why that too.

[Monet X Change]

I know.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Don says Q, plasma says Q, Amanda says Q, Tsunami says Q. And then PJ says Amanda. So Amanda and Q are tied for four and Tsunami is in second place with one.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, and that's what I mean. My biggest thing over there, I was like, I don't understand why Q felt the need to say Tsunami and Amanda. Like, bitch. Why the.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like, why?

[Monet X Change]

Like, there was literally no reason to start that for no reason. Like, it was so unnecessary. And I'm happy that Xunami got her together. Well, not really got together, but like called her out on it because I felt it was so extra and so unnecessary. There was no reason for her to name Xunami or Amanda. She just said one or the other.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I mean, yeah, she would have said one, but I think the reason why is because she could not justify saying Xunami. There was nothing she could say to justify. There would be. She couldn't say my biggest competition. She couldn't say she did party this week. She couldn't say she did party last week. She couldn't say she did porn of the week before that. There was nothing she could say to justify saying Tsunami's name. So she just goes between a man and Tsunami.

[Monet X Change]

So you think that she just doesn't like Tsunami then? Because then why else?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I honestly, I genuinely cannot imagine why she said. I cannot think of why she thought it was appropriate to say. I cannot. I can't justify her saying Tsunami. It was very strange to me. In my opinion, the only answers that were correct were Amanda and Q. There were no other answers that were acceptable in my opinion. Opinion.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

So what I saw. Oh yeah, that's fair.

[Monet X Change]

No, go ahead.

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

What I saw on Twitter is that Q knew she was in the bottom and she wanted to give them a second name so she could save herself. Cuz she. She has. She knew she. She knows she's lip syncing and she knows she's going to lip sync against somebody else. So she gives two names that adds somebody else into the Running. And there's a better chance that she might be saved.

[Monet X Change]

And that's why her ass is in the bottom. Don't you ever come for Tsunami Muse ever.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Q is low key, annoying. I'm not gonna lie.

[Monet X Change]

Right? And I was really. The first episode, I was really turning like episode three, I was like, I like Q. And I am really turning the corner on her with. At the top of this episode with that fucking shit. And now this. I can't.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm also. I know. I'm really.

[Monet X Change]

I'm really happy that that plasma has dropped this fucking mid century aesthetic. Like, I thought that we were gonna get it the whole season and every look was gonna be 50s theme. I'm happy she dropped that shit like a hot fucking potato. And she is doing. Then she is not in that. Cause that would have been very annoying to me.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

To be clear, I only think she did it one time. Like, when else did she do it?

[Monet X Change]

But it wasn't about. It wasn't her saying that. It was from the opening. She said, like, this is my thing. Like, I am. Like, I. I am. I'm really inspired, heavily inspired by the 50s. I like the 50s. So it would made me believe that this is going to be part of her thing, her brand. That is true.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She did say that. But just in her defense, she has literally not done it. She didn't do it in the promo. She hasn't done it in a single look.

[Monet X Change]

She didn't do the promo. What are you talking about? She did it at the damn. At the damn party that we went to in New York City.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I wasn't at the party. All I can talk about is what I saw on the Internet, what I've seen. And I was not at the promo. But her promo look itself was not. What is a promo look. It wasn't that. I'll pull it up.

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

I would say it looks like it's a 50s inspired silhouette, but using modern metallic fabric. Bricks. But I'm gonna pull it up.

[Monet X Change]

So Bob is wrong as usual.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Not as usual. Your math was wrong. We haven't addressed that yet.

[Monet X Change]

My word was wrong.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Your. Your. Your calculations are wrong. We counted those votes. We haven't had it. We haven't talked about that yet.

[Monet X Change]

That's not true. But I'm not gonna go there with you today, baby.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I mean, there's literally a video proving your calculations wrong. But we don't. We don't have to talk. We don't have to have that conversation. That's. That's a. That's for a Different time and place, honestly.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, this is absolutely a 50s aesthetic, like. Like Joan Judson, for sure.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But if you got. If you guys are on the Patreon, you'll see that Monet lies a lot. But it's okay. You know, you got you. You don't take my word for it. Do the math yourself. And during the deliberation, RuPaul said they

[Monet X Change]

are fans to do the math themselves. You are. This is getting wild.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

RuPaul said that Q was the worst dancer of the night, which I agree with. Q was pretty bad. It was like, she was so bad. And the next girl who was the next worst was, like, 10 steps ahead of her. She was, like, way at the. She was, like, way at the back, I feel.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, Q was the worst. I agree. I think Q absolutely deserved to be in the bottom, and I think the other. But you could not. The other person that should be there is Geneva. Well, Geneva and Amanda, it's a toss up between them. And Geneva has been in the bottom more than Amanda, so I would have put Amanda in the bottom.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Amanda and Q are in the bottom.

[Monet X Change]

Geneva, Sorry.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Amanda and Q are in the bottom. And then Q wins, and Amanda is sent away. I don't think that Q won their lips. I think. I think it was.

[Monet X Change]

I think you can make the case for any of them. I don't think it was a grand slam on either. Like, none of them were like, oh, my God, bitch, you turned it on. Like, I didn't get that from any of them. So I think you can justify sending either of them home, because no one. Neither of them, like, completely blew the other one out of the water, you know?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But this is what I think. I think that Q was better on the Runway, and I think that Q was. And I think that Q was the worst by far in the challenge. And I think Q did a slightly better. A slightly less job than Amanda did. Not slightly. A little bit more than slightly less than Amanda did in the lip sync. Real life. So I would have sent Q home. And I think it is too early in the competition to be considering an entire body of work. Four episodes for each girl is too early to be, like, let's look at their whole breadth of work. You can show us your work from Instagram. You can show the looks you would've made from Instagram. It's too early. The entire body of work. It's too early.

[Monet X Change]

Q has been doing better. Q has been doing better than Amanda in the competition.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But what I'm saying is, in my opinion, it is too early to be looking at your body of work. Not, not, not. Not. Not episode five. Each girl's only done four episodes. Never looking at your whole. Never looking at your body of work. No, you don't. In my opinion, you don't start looking at Queen's body of work until, like, episode eight or at least after Snatch Game.

[Monet X Change]

I disagree. I think that if you're gonna ever consider it, you have to, like, really, you have to. Q has been in the top two for three episodes, and Amanda has been in the bottom or safe the entire time she's been there.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Amanda goes home, Q stays, and that is. That's the episode.

[Monet X Change]

Do you.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Do you agree with the outcome? Do you think they should go home? Do you think Amanda was the worst? She should go home.

[Monet X Change]

I don't think Amanda was. I think that Geneva was the worst, but I think. I think Amanda. Let me look at the runways again. I think Amanda had.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Geneva's group was better than Amanda's, and

[Monet X Change]

I think Amanda had the worst Runway of everyone there tonight. And it's been. This has been consistently her cross the bear for her time on Drag Race. So you know what? I think it's her time.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think that. I think that Amanda had the worst Runway. I think Q had the worst performance, and I think that Geneva had the worst verse, but I also think that Geneva had a bad verse and a

[Monet X Change]

bad Runway, but she was in it. But her whole group was good.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like, she had a bad performance, a bad verse, and a bad Runway. Geneva got baby. The skin of her teeth this episode.

[Monet X Change]

Honey by the heads on Bob's chinny chin chin. All right, who's gonna win the season if I had to today, Honestly, Someone who has been consistent, y', all, from the beginning every week. Plane Jane. Plane Jane and Nymphia have been the most. On Sapphira playing Jane Saferan. And these are my. These are the three have been the most.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I need one name, please. Come on. Don't, don't. Don't pull a plasma. We need one name, please. Thank you so much for your time.

[Monet X Change]

I.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Right now, for me, it is Nymphia. Nymphia is really doing a very good job right now. She is doing a remarkable job in this moment, in my opinion. I know she only has one win, but still, she's eating. But also, everyone has. All the people with the wins have one win. So

[Monet X Change]

I would say plain Jane.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

All right, there you have it. We will see you all over at the Patreon for our exclusive review of episode 5, season 16 of Untucked and thank you all for joining us.
