I got them delivered free from 1-800-contacts. Oh, my gosh, they're so fast. And breathe.

[Bob]

Oh, sorry.

[Monet]

I almost couldn't breathe when I saw the discount they gave me on my first order. Oh, sorry. Namaste. Visit 1-800-contacts.com today to save on your first order.

[Bob]

1-800-contacts. Monet. I want you to hear this note. Listen to this. Okay? Do you know about the cornbread. Do you know about the cornbread trend on TikTok?

[Monet]

No.

[Bob]

It's where you sing cornbread, but in like a really melodic way. Go. And I hit the high note the other day. Get into this. Ready? Can you hear this? Ready?

[Monet]

Bread.

[Bob]

No, don't. Don't acknowledge what I just did before. You try to make it about you.

[Monet]

But it was. It was. It was falsetto. It wasn't chest.

[Bob]

That's not the. You're. You're trying to. Instead of acknowledging the remarkable accomplishment I just made, you're trying to. On to the next category without acknowledging what I just did. So can we. Can we do that before we move on, please?

[Monet]

Before you. You did a good job.

[Bob]

Stop. Without coughing, please. Without. With. With. Without the drop list.

[Monet]

I think you did a good job. You sounded good.

[Bob]

Thank you. How was your show tonight?

[Monet]

My show tonight was fabulous. I got a standing ovation after my first. After each number.

[Bob]

How many numbers did you do?

[Monet]

3. And there's something about singing with a full orchestra. It is so satisfying singing with a full orchestra. Nick. Nick wouldn't know anything about this. What do you do with a full orchestra,

[Bob]

Nick? Sing with an orchestra. Nick has a master's degree. Didn't you perform at one of the big places here?

[Monet]

Yeah.

[Bob]

Which one? If Nick's gonna talk, he needs to come to the mic.

[Monet]

Yeah.

[Bob]

Wait, Nick. No, I'll relay back. Nick, you've done. Have you ever done Carnegie?

[Monet]

First of all, Wait, Lincoln Center. Can we acknowledge. Can we acknowledge how Jacob just fucking gathered you like a motherfucking ponytail? He said, if Nick's gonna talk, he needs to get us in the mic. And Bob was like, okay, okay, I'll translate.

[Bob]

First of all, this is. First of all, this is literally what I'm begging Jacob all the time. First of all, I had to fight Jacob for the first time. Three years of his employment.

[Monet]

Get it?

[Bob]

Jacob at sibling rivalry, begging him to speak into a microphone.

[Monet]

I know Jacob's. My video is off right now. I know Jacob's back there just like,

[Bob]

how is that a gathering? Saying that Nick needs to speak to the microphone because he gathers you. This. Because Andy gathers you and I gather you and Jacob gathered you with those pictures of your crunchy wig. Does not mean that we're. Don't try to. Because. Because Jacob pulled you by the three hairs of your heady head head with

[Monet]

your crunchy season tig wigs.

[Bob]

Don't try to act like I got gathered.

[Monet]

Gathered you about Joe Rivers. They were like, literally not a st. Single person. Agree with your assessment that Joan Ross. My assessment of what is not an insult comic. And she does blue comedy. Literally. Not.

[Bob]

Not even one person. Not a single person is certain. Mon. See, Monet, don't try to move on. You got gathered. Don't move on. You always trying to. You always trying to.

[Monet]

First of all, I want to acknowledge that we are both wearing bomo cosmetics tonight. I'm wearing the stunna and dime.

[Bob]

I am wearing dark humor and heckler.

[Monet]

Yes. Oh, my God.

[Bob]

And you can get [e-mail] I made poor.

[Monet]

But look at this look. Also, we should have samurai episode. The one about Beaumo. No, the one about the pretty funny palette. Because there's so many funny anecdotes and things I need to tell y' all about this fucking crazy ass bitch that we talking to. The one about the pretty funny palette.

[Bob]

Why am I a crazy bitch?

[Monet]

Oh, I have all. And I wrote them down so I wouldn't forget to. I have all these little things I want to say about you.

[Bob]

We do that episode one day, we're going to develop a product that will just somehow stop you from getting oil in this. This is where I get oily. Right. I am constantly doing this. Constantly.

[Monet]

Every queen. You know, y' all see. Have you ever seen anything with Bianca Del Rio doing an interview or anything? She always has

[Bob]

her fucking powder puff. Powder puff.

[Monet]

And she's always. Every five minutes.

[Bob]

Yeah, because it makes you look older once this Area gets wet. You're maybe who sweat just on the top lip. I don't know what it is about that, but I'm just like, why are you sweating on just your top lip?

[Monet]

I'm so happy I'm not that girl.

[Bob]

I hate that. I hate that. You've seen it, though, right?

[Monet]

Oh, yes, Many times.

[Bob]

It's like, you're not sweating anywhere. You just have a little sweat mustache. That is so. By the way, if you are one of those folks, no shade, but I'm like, what's happening with your genetics that you grow a sweat mustache when it gets a little warm?

[Monet]

Oh, my God, Bob, that sounds so mean. But also, I agree.

[Bob]

So today we are here to review episode six of season one of RuPaul's Drag Race. Okay, Jacob.

[Monet]

Okay, cool.

[Bob]

I'm really enjoying rewatching season one, by the way. Normally. I mean, not that this matters, but normally our watchery gets more views than our rivalry does. But right now, our rivalry is on the uptake, and people are watching Watch for Less. I don't know. Maybe y' all aren't loving season one because.

[Monet]

Yeah, but also, normally when I watch, reads are like current season. When it's current season, people are. They're really wanting our opinions, like, because, you know, people care more.

[Bob]

But our. Our. But our rivalry has been up lately. Me, Monet, we've been on. We've been on a roll lately. I've. I've noticed that y' all over at. Over in the YouTube land, when me and Monet are particularly at each other's throats or in a particularly good mood, you tend to watch more. Or if me and Monet are fighting another person, y' all like conflict. If me and Monet are fighting someone, y' all be. Y' all be tuned in.

[Monet]

They're like a tussle.

[Bob]

But also, when we're having a, you know, y', all, we know. I'm actually just grateful that y' all watch us. I'm just saying.

[Monet]

Numbers. We just rode that. That emotional roller coaster with you. We went on the journey with you. We're there, babe.

[Bob]

We love you too. So I love writing down Chanel's quotes. I know the fake person that lies underneath all that cosmetics. That is what Chanel says about Rebecca Glasscock as we enter the workroom, because Angina just left. I know I want shirts with all these things. I know the fake person that lies underneath all that cosmetics.

[Monet]

They.

[Bob]

She does not like this bitch.

[Monet]

It's very mean, honestly. And I do like it too, but I Just feel. But I cannot imagine my first time on TV and being excited to watch these episodes. And every episode, it is a character assassination of me by. By someone on the cast. Most times, me. Chanel.

[Bob]

That was me up until Thorgy went home. Imagine my shock. I was on Drag Race being like, thorgy's my best friend. And she was like, bob is so annoying. And I was like, what?

[Monet]

Excuse me, Mary. Well, Chanel said. She said. She says Rebecca is misleading everyone with who she is. I'm like, how is she not out here? Like, she's just not this big ploy to mislead everyone. It's so wild.

[Bob]

They really do not like. I know it's been clear, but they do not like Rebecca Glasscock on this season. It is wild.

[Monet]

Wild.

[Bob]

My wife quit crack.

[Monet]

She's like, I can't. I can't handle this. I'm done.

[Bob]

We don't know why Rebecca Glasscott quit drag. I just want to say out loud, we do not know why Rebecca Glascott quit drag. Or if she had, maybe she's just a fair weather queen, you know, free hasn't done drag in a year. Does that mean that she's quit dragging?

[Monet]

Okay, I have Bob. If Rebecca Glasgow was out here doing giraffe, we would have known.

[Bob]

I ain't ever seen or heard Hide nor Tail. You about to sound country as hell. I haven't seen Hide nor Tail. You sound country as shit.

[Monet]

So they have a mini challenge, and it is a vogue off.

[Bob]

And it's interesting. Yeah, the linguistics here are very interesting. The vogue off.

[Monet]

Yeah. And, you know, because, I mean, RuPaul has never really. Maybe I've never seen it, but we've all seen these old videos of RuPaul on TikTok and reels and stuff of him, like, immersed in old New York City nightlife culture in the early 90s. But I've never seen RuPaul a part of ballroom ever. Have you? Maybe I've never seen them.

[Bob]

I don't know that RuPaul has been a part of ballroom. And I know that. I mean, I know that Michelle Visage is actually quite iconic in ballroom, apparently. I mean, a lot of folks. I mean, you can see clips of old clips of Michelle Visage voguing with everyone from Willie Ninja to, like, Dorian Corey. So we know that Michelle Visage was in these streets actually voguing for real. You know what I mean? Old way, specifically. But she seems to not be tied to ballroom culture anymore. And I read her book, and when I read from her book and from what I've seen on the Internet, Michelle seemed to have been quite immersed in ballroom culture. I don't know if that RuPaul was. I read RuPaul's autobiography as well, and she doesn't talk about that in the book at all. RuPaul was a club kid who found her way into nightlife through club kidding. And I think Michelle found her way into nightlife through ballroom and. Of course. But, I mean, maybe. Maybe RuPaul was at a function with Michelle Visage, and, I mean, they must have linked up somehow, obviously. You know what I mean?

[Monet]

Yeah.

[Bob]

But it is interesting. So this is before the coin death drop has been coined. There is no such thing as a death drop right now in the lexicon. In the lexicon of the world. So RuPaul. It was weird to hear RuPaul call it a dip.

[Monet]

I wrote that, too.

[Bob]

RuPaul goes, I want to see pops. But also, I've noticed that the word death drop has also changed into different things on drag. At one point, a cooter slam was a death drop on Drag Race.

[Monet]

Well, to be fair, I've never heard RuPaul ever say the word death drop.

[Bob]

I think I might have heard Paul say it once, referring to. Maybe you or someone else is doing a. What I. In New York City, we call a cooter slam. I don't know what they call them everywhere else, do they? I mean, you've heard it called a cooter slam, right, Monet?

[Monet]

Yeah, in New York. But also, I grew up in the New York scene, so maybe. I don't know.

[Bob]

And a cooter slam is when you. It's not just a split. A cooter slam. I would say a cooter slam is when you take both feet off the ground and, like, you have to be completely airborne at some point. And then you have to, like, pick your knees up. I would say you have to pick your knees up and. And like, a plie in the air and then. And then do a split and hit the ground. And if there's a sound, there's. There's usually a sound for it to be qualified as what I would consider a cooter slam.

[Monet]

And that sound is usually the heels hitting the. Hitting the ground before you. Before your pussy.

[Bob]

Yeah. It's not. Yes. It's not the bodies. Okay. Real weird. So I'm at my friend Nick's house. Nick has this marble table.

[Monet]

Oh, word.

[Bob]

And then I came in, and I put my cup on the table, and Nick was like, use a coaster. And I Was like, of course I'll use a coaster. But to be clear, a coaster is to protect wood tables.

[Monet]

No, no, no, no, no. A coaster.

[Bob]

What could a cup do to a marble table?

[Monet]

If you put a ring with condensation or the liquid, it will still leave a ring if you don't wipe it up immediately.

[Bob]

No, but it won't ruin it. It won't, like, hold it.

[Monet]

He doesn't want to wipe his marble table and polish it.

[Bob]

No, I agree. What I'm saying is. What I'm saying is a ring can permanently ruin a wooden table.

[Monet]

Yeah.

[Bob]

And you just have to just wipe the. And Nick was like, it'll ruin the table. And I was like, I don't know that it will ruin. I don't know.

[Monet]

It will inconvenience Nick in his table.

[Bob]

That's probably true. That is probably. And you know what? I would like to point out that I happily obliged and used the coaster while eating my Taco Bell, which I need to chill out on because I am out of control.

[Monet]

What you need to get into is Jersey Mike subs.

[Bob]

You know, I don't like sandwiches like that. You Talk to Layla McQueen. Layla McQueen is obsessed with Layla. Talking about sandwich like. Like, they was like. Like. Like she. Like, she just found out about. About the. The fucking Snuggie. I was like, girl, it's just. It's a bit. Sandwich has been here, honey, they've been here.

[Monet]

Jersey Mike's is so good.

[Bob]

I like, you know, I met Jersey Mike.

[Monet]

No, that was Ike. I met him, too. It's Ike, not Jersey Mike. He got me. I thought Ike was Jersey Mike, too. No, no, no, no, no. It's Ike.

[Bob]

Wait, you're right. It was Ike. Ike Sub. Wait, who is it?

[Monet]

It's Ike subs or Ike.

[Bob]

Ike subs. Oh, yeah, I met Ike. I was like, oh, he looked just like that drawing. I was like, oh, it's Ike. Hey.

[Monet]

He was like, we have Ike's all over. I was like, okay, but. Bitch, when I tell you I have never seen an Ike, and I've been looking for them too. No shame. Ike Monet.

[Bob]

Shots fired at Ike. All Ike did was give you, like, $100 gift card, and you're on here trashing him. He was there with his daughter, working hard, trying to provide put food on the table for his family. You're out here trashing Ike. What are you doing for your life, bitch? Okay, you're trashing Ike.

[Monet]

Can I say no? Shade. This might. This might sound elitist or whatever. I don't Know if mean it's on that. But you know, I've gone to the Oscar gifting suite the past three years

[Bob]

and I'm sorry, what in the Oprah Winfrey Dwayne the Rock Johnson are you about to say?

[Monet]

I'm going to say what the first one was everything. The past two have been whack. Right,

[Bob]

Y'? All. I'm screaming right now.

[Monet]

Monet read. I'm literally just saying that the gifts were best the first time I went.

[Bob]

What I said, if I ever get invited back to an Oscar, gifts and squee. I'm never going because it's beneath me. I'll be there.

[Monet]

I'll be there with bells on, honey.

[Bob]

Did you see Viola Davis?

[Monet]

I didn't see Viola Davis, no.

[Bob]

She was like between us or something or I can't remember.

[Monet]

Well, we need to go together.

[Bob]

Why don't.

[Monet]

You don't never want to go with me.

[Bob]

But no, it's because you have to have time slots. I mean, our agents get us different.

[Monet]

This is.

[Bob]

I'm not having this conversation. This is. I don't want to talk about our off screw gifting suites.

[Monet]

We all prefer things a certain way, like groceries. If you want groceries just how you like them, you gotta try Instacart. They have a new preference picker that lets you pick how ripe or unripe you want your bananas. Shoppers can see your preferences up front, helping guide their choices. Because when it comes to groceries, the details matter. Instacart get groceries just how you like.

[Bob]

Now listen. So Nina Flowers ended up winning the Vogue battle. Or, sorry, the Vogue off. And how did you feel watching them vogue?

[Monet]

It was terrible. But also I'm not a good voguer either. So if I was faced with a challenge, I don't think I would turn the party. I think I would do. I think that. I think even Nina was doing stuff.

[Bob]

But you did a little Catwoman. But you did a little catwalk on All Star 7.

[Monet]

I could do that. I could do a catwalk. Something like that. But like, if I do. You're good. I cannot do hand performance. You're very good at hand performance. I cannot do hand performance. Even after this. After the members of the Kiki House of Juicy Couture were teaching me. I was doing it good for a second, but my hand.

[Bob]

Just a good job. It rehearses your eating. I think you have a nice catwalk. But I mean, I also. I mean it's not like I'm like a student of gravity. Marc Jacobs. But Marc Jacobs has taught Me a little bit of hand performance in our time together. You know, gravity is one of my dance. Not one. Like, I've hired him as a dancer for several gigs. And of course, I also. And gravity is really, really great at hands. And DYU helped me a lot with my.

[Monet]

Dyu was very helpful in teaching stuff. I love dyu. Yeah.

[Bob]

Dyu helped me a lot with my performances and stuff. Anyway, Nina got them knees.

[Monet]

Like, Megan girl. Nina was up there. I was like, all right, Nina.

[Bob]

I'm also screaming at how I feel like Rebecca's glasscock's arms are like, dis. Her arms are so long.

[Monet]

Are they.

[Bob]

Her wingspan seems like, taller than she. But also, Rebecca is very tall. We're the same height, roughly. Like, I remember looking at her and like, oh, we are looking in each other's eyes like, you're a big lady.

[Monet]

I didn't think she was that tall. So that's news to me. I don't think she was tall at

[Bob]

all for some reason. So we get back in the room, and we find out, because Nina Flowers won't. She gets to dole out the. So we find we're doing an absolute ball. This is the first ball. Obviously, it's the first season in the history of Drag Race, and I didn't realize. I forgot that the balls were a staple pretty much since season one, a lot of them. And we get the first ball, which is the absolute ball, which each girl has to do a look. Excuse me, based on a flavor of absolute. Specifically a fruit. Basically. It's like, not like the vanilla and the spicy pepper. All those. They're doing mango raspberry pepper. They're doing mango, raspberry, mandarin, and lemon.

[Monet]

Lime.

[Bob]

Lime.

[Monet]

No, no, it's lemon. You're right. Lemon. Lemon.

[Bob]

Lemon. So Nina Flowers gets to decide who gets what, and she passed them out. And baby BB Zahara Benet is stressed

[Monet]

out, which almost like her choosing is. Sure. But that's not a real advantage. Like, I don't think that's a real advantage to get to choose who does what flavor.

[Bob]

Yeah. Because they're really just colors. It's not like giving out drag kids or. It's not like, giving out, you know, like. Like, well. Well, then was it. Was it a. Is it a prize to be able to, like, hand out the boxes on the. On. You know, when they have those. Like, when y' all had the boxes, the. The. The. The. The Wheel of Fortune boxes, was that an advantage? I mean, could y' all have fabric? Not really.

[Monet]

I mean, I will say for that one we got to like see the fabrics up close so we can see which ones had more stretch fabrics. So that is an advantage because if you have, if you have all, if you have like one stretch fabric as opposed to five, that is harder to work with, in my opinion.

[Bob]

I forgot that. You have not forgot. But like, it blows my mind that you've done Drag Race three times. That's because I did Drag Race once and it feels like, it feels, feels like a lot.

[Monet]

It is a lot. I, I go back I, I every time I leave. That's why, like, I can feel like I, I sympathize with Chanel a little bit in this episode. Cuz I'm like, at this. And also they, what, six episodes in. I don't know how long they used to sequester the girls at this point, but this is when you start, this is about the part when you start going crazy a little bit. You're like, what the am I doing? What is going on?

[Bob]

And each of your seasons was long. I had a short ass season. Like I, I, I honestly like three. And has anyone done it four times? Has anyone actually done four of them?

[Monet]

Jujubee has done four. She did hers. Two All Stars, one All Stars, five. And then Canada, UK versus the World.

[Bob]

That's two. And Jimbo. No, Jimbo did three.

[Monet]

She did three. Jimbo.

[Bob]

Canada, All Stars and then UK versus the World. Yeah, it's just too much. Too much much.

[Monet]

Yeah, it's a lot.

[Bob]

Anyway, so let's keep going. So should. So we found out that Chanel can't sew, which obviously you can't use a critique. You don't know that you need to sell one time, you know, because it's season one. Yeah, but obviously it's going to give some, some fever, you know what I mean? Some stress.

[Monet]

And I thought that she did. For some reason, I thought I had some memory that Chanel could sew. I was like, kind of shocked that she couldn't sew. I was like, oh, wait, she can sew.

[Bob]

When RuPaul comes through to look at everything she does. When RuPaul comes through to look at everyone's outfits, Rebecca's doing this thing where she won't let RuPaul, like, RuPaul went to go reach for a dress and Rebecca like popped her head and goes, that's a surprise. And I was like, what is it? I'd be like, show me this outfit. Talking about some goddamn surprises. She was filming your surprise.

[Monet]

She wants RuPaul. She wants to step on RuPaul have no idea what she's gonna do. And I kind of. I kind of feel that, you know, when, like, you, like, you want to do something to, like, really impress your mom so you, like, don't show until, like, the last minute because you're like. I want my mom to, like, be fully surprised when she sees me for the first time.

[Bob]

Okay? I never had to worry about that, because everything I did, my mom acted like it was great. I was like. I was. I was Ma. Ma look. And then do, like, the. Do, like, a mo. A Mohart cartwheel. And then she'll be like, good job, Chris.

[Monet]

Other than I might mom, my mom would be like, that was it.

[Bob]

What if I actually. My mom was my mom. My mom was very unenthusiastic. That was. That was good, Chris. It was. It was never like, whoa. I was like, that was good, Chris. I always got the same. Even killed. Yeah, it was always like, that was very good, Chris.

[Monet]

You did.

[Bob]

That was a cartwheel.

[Monet]

I can see you doing something like, remember Stewie? Not Stewie. The kid from look what I Can Do. What is that from Mad tv?

[Bob]

Look what I Can Do. What was his name? Stuart. Stuart Stewart.

[Monet]

Stuart. Stuart.

[Bob]

So I'm also. Bibi to. Harbor is going on about how hard it is to be 6 foot 2 and have 2 yards of fabric. Can confirm that is not enough fabric. Two yard. Unless you're. If you're making a cocktail dress. But as we see, BB did not come out in a cocktail dress. Two yards of fabric. Monet.

[Monet]

This is true. And then. But what gagged me when RuPaul goes. He answered her. He's like, well, you know us big girls. I was like, big nigga, y'.

[Bob]

All. Well, I think. I think what she's saying is they're both tall because Bibi's very skinny. RuPaul's very slim. RuPaul's taller than six. RuPaul's taller than I am.

[Monet]

Well, I mean, to look at RuPaul's skinny praying mantis as a Muslim, you know, us big girls really struggle within the fabric area sometimes. And also, I was like, nigga, you got the credit cards. Go get some more fabric.

[Bob]

I think the point is to not. The point is to use what you got. You know what I mean? I think the point isn't to facilitate the challenge and make it easier. The point is to see how they can excel through the hardships of the challenge. Right?

[Monet]

That's like, you go to a bank, and they're like, it's really hard to live on $10. And the bank is like. JP Morgan is like, I know. It really is hard to do that with only $10. Like, nigga, you got more money. Give me some more money.

[Bob]

The bank doesn't make the money, but they have it. Yeah, but it's other people's money.

[Monet]

Some of it. Some of it, they use it.

[Bob]

The bank is functioning under the notion that is borrowing money from the people who have the money in the bank, and they're counting on you just not taking the money out so the bank doesn't actually have all of our money in it.

[Monet]

I get how banks work. I was just. It was just. It was just. It was. I was just being a little hyperbolic. I get how a motherfucking bank works. Nigger,

[Bob]

This is. You are out of control. That was. Don't be mad at me because you had a bad analogy. So listen, Charo comes in and can I just say, Charo looks so good. Stunning. I want this dress.

[Monet]

Same. I was like, bitch, I would absolutely wear that. It was really cute.

[Bob]

And she was giving body like I be giving body, honey. I was in drag today.

[Monet]

I gotta wear hair.

[Bob]

I was in drag with my hip ass on today and everything. I was like, you know what? I know there's some haters on this podcast with me, but I give body down. And she's known for it.

[Monet]

I have never disagreed that you give great body. No, we all know Bob, you pad well. You corset. Well, since the season, my point was always that you're not known for your body. When you die, your tombstone is not gonna say, comedian, funny, great body. It's gonna say the other two.

[Bob]

I'm not gonna have comedian on my tombstone.

[Monet]

What is it gonna say?

[Bob]

I mean, I haven't given much thought to my epitaph yet. You know what I mean? Or epic house.

[Monet]

Do you think that comedy's gonna be a part of your story when you die?

[Bob]

Is that gonna be on my tombstone? Everyone doesn't put their jobs on their tombstone. Who puts their job on their tombstone?

[Monet]

No celebrities. Yes.

[Bob]

It doesn't say butcher, baker, and candlestick maker on people's tombstones. Bob sat on his tombstone. He's gonna have Bob. Here lies Bob. She turned the party. Turned the party. I did. I forgot that I said that. Here lies Bob. She turned the party. I do want Bob on my tombstone, though. I don't want my first name. I want, like, Caldwell, Bob, tdq. But I have to die for my mom. I mentioned it to my mom that I want to change my Name. And she was like, you better not. And I was like, that wasn't gender affirming.

[Monet]

Better not.

[Bob]

I was like, I don't even. Like. Like, I don't even. I don't even. I don't even think. I even seem like a Chris to

[Monet]

me, because that is your name. You do to me. But, like, it's because I know that's. I know that's your name, so that's why it, like, feels that way.

[Bob]

Jacob. Do I sound with Chris to you? Will you hear me call Chris? Well, I only call Chris when I'm. When I go home. That's the only place where people call me Chris. Chris.

[Monet]

Does everyone call you that, or do you miss your mom?

[Bob]

I think the you who wore vests, that was a Chris. My mother calls me Christopher, and the other people in my family call me Chris. My mother calls me Christopher. She goes, hey, Christopher. Christopher.

[Monet]

Okay, so on this show, Rebecca is blocking her stuff.

[Bob]

Oh, wait, before you go, before Charo. Something about Charo led them into RuPaul being like, oh, yeah. And you have to actually wear fruit. Like, you have to wear the real.

[Monet]

The twist fruit. You have to wear the real fruit, which is like. I'm like. I'm like. I think that there's, like, maybe you get, like, a nice. Like, one of those skinny. Those peelers, like, those potato peelers, and, like, do a whole bunch of those and do, like, a something or. I feel like that's the way to

[Bob]

incorporate the fruit or put it on

[Monet]

a hat or something. Your bottom. Favorite thing, it's just put on your head.

[Bob]

I thought there's a lot of Donald Trump references on the Runway.

[Monet]

I was like, this is around Apprentice,

[Bob]

I reckon.

[Monet]

So.

[Bob]

So we should get into the.

[Monet]

These.

[Bob]

We should get into.

[Monet]

Bibi's asking Nina how to sew, and Nina's helping her. Nina's, like, sketching stuff out on the paper. And I have to say, I am not a visual learner. I am a kinesthetic learner. I need to, like, do it to learn how to do it. You can't just draw on a paper and be like, oh, yeah. So you see the square here? You want to cut on this little thing here? I'm like, no, I need to see someone do it. I would learn, like, that. I would not be able to accomplish that.

[Bob]

You know, I can learn some things by, like, from hearing it, but there comes a point where I can't, where I lose the ability to. It's like, you'll be explaining it, and then after, like, a Minute and a half, I'll be like, oh, wait. And it's like. And it's like you're talking but I don't hear you anymore. And then I snap Back to like 30 seconds later and I'm like, I missed. I missed a whole chunk in the middle. I need you to. Sometimes I'll even be reading a book and then I'll be reading like an entire page and I get to the bottom and I'm like, I didn't process any of that. I just read it. Have you ever done that? You're like, I didn't process a single word of this. I was just literally just reading the words in my head. None of them were connecting. It was just sounds in my head.

[Monet]

Yeah, this is. Remember you. And I don't know if you said on a podcast before, but our old financial advisor, they would be talking to me and I. Oh yeah.

[Bob]

I mean literally, literally cross eyed, just be like, oh, yeah, girl. What? You know, she would. But she would be. I mean, she would be like, it would start off so succinct. She's like, well, Monet, it's actually quite simple. See, right now you have a return of 3.4 on your AR on your IPR. Now if you take the IPR, you want to do a 5% reinvestment to get an ROI on your JQVC. But also make sure that in about 40 years when you pull from the JQQ, you're going to need about 3.7 return interest rate, but which is good, actually, which is far above market value. And then you'd be like, I'm sorry.

[Monet]

But then I wouldn't say I'm sorry. Because I'm like, no, I should have that. I don't want to be like dumb. I don't sound like a dumb ass bitch. I was sitting there like, oh yeah, you're too embarrassed.

[Bob]

You're way too embarrassed to be like, I don't get it. You. I'm. I am. I have. It's not even about pride. I guess it's pride. I'm just too embarrassed to be like, I don't understand things about money. And I. And I'm. And I'm just handing you all of mine.

[Monet]

All of mine. Like a dumbass girl. Oh, Chanel says something. She told me. She goes, I have to write this down. Because I was like, what the. She goes, there is a level of.

[Bob]

There is a. Oh, I love it. This is a great one. Please say it.

[Monet]

There is a level of expectation that you had to uphold. What

[Bob]

I tried to write down Chanel's infamous speech that you hear toward the end of this episode, but I'm not a great courtroom stenographer, and it was too long, but I got a little bit of it. Layla McQueen knows it.

[Monet]

Off the top of your head.

[Bob]

I know. I was gonna call Layla McQueen and have her do this monologue because Layla McQueen does this monologue all the time, randomly.

[Monet]

She knows are stringing words together in the English language that should make sense together. And to her it does. I'm like, I don't understand what that sentence means. There's a level of expectation that you have to uphold.

[Bob]

I think what she means is there is a. A le. A a a. A certain le. Now I can't say the word. I think what she's saying is there is a. What do you call it? A standard. There's a standard that you have to uphold. I think that's what you're trying to say. I think what she's trying to say is Rebecca Glasscock is not meeting the standard. Maybe whatever she's saying is mean, and it's about Rebecca that I know for sure. So. RuPaul looks so good.

[Monet]

I agree. RuPaul is stunning.

[Bob]

I have a dress kind of like this.

[Monet]

Do you have I seen it.

[Bob]

Jacob Google. Bob the Drag Queen, New Now Next Awards or Trailblazer Awards.

[Monet]

Yours is not like that, Bob. Yours is a new illusion.

[Bob]

Yeah, I said kind of like this. I didn't say I have a replica.

[Monet]

Okay, Please put these side by side when I tell you. These two are not even from the same collection.

[Bob]

No, they're the same color. And they both have these like, these like. I don't even know what you call this shape going up and down.

[Monet]

There's a comic looking thing.

[Bob]

I think they look similar. You don't think they look similar at all? No, I don't put them on the screen, Jay.

[Monet]

Also, RuPaul used to love him in Afro.

[Bob]

New Now Next award. I still have that dress. Do I fit it? That's a whole different story. It is zero stretch. It's nothing new. Now Next word. It is the logo truck.

[Monet]

Logo trail is the one that you and Taylor had matching outfits.

[Bob]

Yes.

[Monet]

Okay.

[Bob]

Yeah. Honestly, these dresses are similar and you're a hater is what's going on.

[Monet]

Okay. I've been hating because I don't think they look similar.

[Bob]

Okay, Well, I mean, no, those. But those are separate conversations. You're a hater.

[Monet]

If that was funny, that was good. I think RuPaul is beautiful, though. I. I I, I, I, I. RuPaul is wearing a lot of afros though, which I love, but it's just so funny cuz she doesn't, she's RuPaul's won an afro one time again after this season when Matthew Anderson made that. The, the white afro.

[Bob]

No, she's wor.

[Monet]

More than once.

[Bob]

She must have.

[Monet]

I don't think so.

[Bob]

She must have. Okay, so does BBZ Harborne not look like Tyra? I mean, James when he walked into the workroom on season two?

[Monet]

I don't remember what James had on Google it.

[Bob]

This is like what James wore when he walked into the workroom on season two. Like I'm like, Like I wonder, I wonder if he was influenced by, by B.B. you know what? I'm wrong. Don't even look it up. When I tell you these things look literally. When I tell you these things look literally.

[Monet]

Oh yeah, girl.

[Bob]

I mean, maybe the hair.

[Monet]

That's it.

[Bob]

The hair and the pencil skirt.

[Monet]

Yeah, that's it.

[Bob]

And it's not even a pistol. It's a dress with a pencil. With a, with it, with a pencil skirt on it. You know what? I made, I made the whole thing up. I'd be, I just be saying stuff sometimes and clearly I just made that up.

[Monet]

I, I would see. She is giving Bob the Drag Queen though.

[Bob]

And I will say that brings your judgment of the resemblance of the yellow dresses back in the question.

[Monet]

Thank you, Jake.

[Bob]

I looked at the yellow dress and I still stand by those dresses are. They have similarities. I think Bibi looks really good though. This must be executive realness. I think Bibi looks really good. She honestly does look like she works up in some, some executive office. Like I believe it.

[Monet]

I hate the words executive and realness using this together. I, when I tell you these, I just, I just hate it. I, they, I hate those two words used together.

[Bob]

Is it like phonetically or because of like an experience you've had or because you feel like it gets overused or what?

[Monet]

The experience of anyone wearing any business. Anything but. Oh yeah, honey. This is serving executive realness, bitch. No, it is not.

[Bob]

All right, there it is. Monet's had it officially. She is your miss. Oh, also, can we bring back during the ball having a Q and A on the stage, please?

[Monet]

I love that. I do like that too.

[Bob]

Like, that was a great. Some of their answers were so bad.

[Monet]

I agree.

[Bob]

Rebecca said I want this.

[Monet]

Let's go to BB's second look, which I think Bibi is serving. I didn't, I did not know I've never known BB to be this kind of body queen. So I'm like kind of gagging. I've seen Bibi showing her body like this. She looks great.

[Bob]

Oh, girl. BB show. Bibi used to be this little. I mean, Bibi still shows body. She'll show a lot of leg. Also, look at her video. This is one music video where BB's on the beach. She has a music video where she's like, on the beach.

[Monet]

Bb.

[Bob]

BB be in these body streets, girl. One of the bees in BB stands for body, baby.

[Monet]

I cannot imagine showing this my skin. This is wild.

[Bob]

I mean, you don't have to imagine it. She's right here doing it.

[Monet]

No, for me, like, I can never go. I can never going to even do this.

[Bob]

You just posted a picture of your, Your, your dick hanging out on your Instagram.

[Monet]

I said on tv.

[Bob]

Yeah, you're right. No one sees your Instagram. I'm screaming.

[Monet]

This color is not red. It's pink.

[Bob]

Okay, I'm colorblind. We know this. We've been new.

[Monet]

No, I'm saying raspberry. Supposed to be getting raspberry. It's not raspberry.

[Bob]

Wait, what color raspberries?

[Monet]

Raspberries are red.

[Bob]

Oh, maybe. Maybe when they're not ripe. I don't know.

[Monet]

Not a sour raspberry.

[Bob]

You got to take it up with them. Monet is very upset. Monet thinks that it was favored toward Bibi. Monet thinks production is favoring Bibi's Harvey. Is that what you're saying, Monet? No, I don't think she earned this.

[Monet]

I think this third look, which is fucking stunning. And I can't believe she doesn't know how to sew when she made this is wild. She looks incredible.

[Bob]

Bebe is in these streets lying. This bitch can sew, Clearly. Obviously, Bibi is a liar. This girl knows how to sew. You can't make this. You can sew and this is not. We're not having this conversation.

[Monet]

Maybe she hot glued it all together.

[Bob]

BB is out here producing her own story. This knows how to sew. She wanted to have a success story and she got one. She said, can you believe I came out in this garment and I can't even sew? Everywhere you look, there's a him.

[Monet]

Okay? She looks stunning. And even how she incorporated into her hair making it. I think this was. She turned this out. This is fabulous.

[Bob]

I agree. She looks very beautiful. This is a very good look. I would wear this right now on this very day.

[Monet]

I agree. I would too.

[Bob]

Very Very good. Let's go into Nina Flowers. In her executive realness, she is lime. I guess it was. There was a lime. No, mango. She's mango.

[Monet]

Well, this is not giving mango. And this. I hear she with, like, the brown and orange in her hair and the dress is green, like kind of. This is just ugly. These fucking glasses and this hair like that. I hate this.

[Bob]

You know, I don't love this look. I. I gotta give it to you. I don't particularly love this look either.

[Monet]

She looks like Anne Hathaway before she got fierce in the Devil's Race. Prada.

[Bob]

Oh, my God.

[Monet]

Her.

[Bob]

Her. Her. Ms. Mango look. Are mangoes green on the outside? They're kind of. Are they kind of green?

[Monet]

They're a mix of. They're like. When they're. When they're not ripe, they're green. When they're ripe, they turn. They turn a little more brown and orange.

[Bob]

I like her swimsuit look. This look is cute. I love this little, like, shredded camisole type fantasy she's got going on A camisole. Where are the mangoes? Oh, that's in the next look.

[Monet]

The third look. Yeah, I don't like this either. I think this is not great. I was very shocked. This is not good.

[Bob]

So her. I like her evening wear. I think it looks really nice.

[Monet]

Where the mangoes at?

[Bob]

She. She took the. The. The pills and she put them on the belt and she put them on the collar.

[Monet]

Right. This is fine. I like this hair a lot, which. It kind of looks like a mango. And this. How she did this thing in the back kind of give the shape of a mango.

[Bob]

Oh, it does kind of like a mango, doesn't it? How do you eat mangoes? Talk to me.

[Monet]

Oh, girl. Mangoes. First of all, it's a very dirty activity if you're eating a mango. If you're not eating a mango, your entire face and hands are like. You look like. You just. You should look like you just fucking went to work.

[Bob]

Yeah.

[Monet]

You murder.

[Bob]

You essentially murder a mango. If the mango is covered in blood, you'd look like Dexter. Like, if mango juice was blood, you'd look like Dexter by the end of it.

[Monet]

Yeah. I love green mangoes. In St. Lucia, we call it mango and sauce. And you, like. You take a not ripe. What'd you call it? A not ripe mango. What's the word that works and unripe, Whatever.

[Bob]

We get it. I don't know.

[Monet]

And then you chop it up and you put it with some vinegar hot sauce.

[Bob]

I mean, chop it up. That's what I'm trying to get. How do you. How are you handling the mango? How are you slicing and dicing it?

[Monet]

If it's not ripe, then you, you peel it, and then you use a knife and chop it up to put it in a bag. You put some pepper, vinegar, salt, and some pepper sauce, and you shake it in there and you eat it like that with a fork or with your hands. If it's a ripe mango, you just. You bite at the top and you peel it and you eat it with your hands.

[Bob]

So what I do is I chop the ends of the mango off. Ooof. And then I scoop the pit out and you, like, eat the pulp off the pit. And then you cut that down the middle into two pieces and you kind of like the pit. You just kind of like, suck on the pit. Then you throw that away. And then you just like, basically drag your teeth across the skin, skin on the inside and get the. The meat out that way. And it's real. I, that's, that's how I found is the best way to get the most mango for your buck.

[Monet]

I didn't know that Americans eat mangoes, to be honest. I don't know. That was like. I didn't know that was a big fruit here. I. I just found this out recently.

[Bob]

How long you been living in America for?

[Monet]

What? Since I was 10. So for the past 22 years. I did not know Americans ate mangoes like that. I thought that was a Caribbean thing.

[Bob]

I mean, we don't.

[Monet]

We don't.

[Bob]

We're not like, we probably don't eat mangoes as often as you all eat mangoes, but I mean, how you been living in America 20 years, you never seen anybody eat a mango?

[Monet]

I have never seen an American eat a mango. I've seen West Indians eat it in Brooklyn. Not un American. Have you ever. Do y'. All. Do y'. All. Do y' all have pawpaw hair or five fingers?

[Bob]

I don't know. I don't know if that is. Yeah, I know the paw. I've heard of the pawpaw tree.

[Monet]

Say it again.

[Bob]

The paw. The pawpaw tree. Well, Baloo calls it Baloo says the pawpaw tree in Jungle Book.

[Monet]

It's not pawpaw, it's pawpaw.

[Bob]

Well, I'm just saying Baloo in Jungle Book sings about the pawpaw tree and the bare necessities.

[Monet]

Oh, I love paw paw.

[Bob]

When you take a pear from the baupaw tree. When you take something from the paw paw tree.

[Monet]

Nina's a chop for me. I am. I was not impressed by her package. Did you like her package?

[Bob]

No.

[Monet]

Yeah.

[Bob]

So let's go on to miss I can't do it. Can you do it?

[Monet]

No.

[Bob]

Jacob, try to do it. Oh, Jacob. Jacob didn't want.

[Monet]

I think Chanel looks. Sorry. No, no, I'm aware.

[Bob]

I was. She goes. That sounds familiar. Wait, no.

[Monet]

I think Chanel looks so good. This looks great.

[Bob]

But what you ought to know that she is slowly crumbling every step she takes on this Runway. She is giving because she is fighting the urge. She is fighting with every fiber in her being to stay in this competition.

[Monet]

Chanel turned it. She looked. The hair looks good. This outfit looks good. Also, I want to get into this. Naomi does this and Classique does this. Two girls. And a lot of girls do it too. I want to start doing. I want to become a three color girl right now. I just do foundation and highlight. I want to add a third color right here because also luxe does is really good at this too. It's like this, like, lighter color here that really brightens under here and right here. I want to start doing that in my makeup.

[Bob]

Sounds exciting.

[Monet]

It does. I really want to do it anyway. I think Chanel looks really good. Even Chanel is having wearing nails. A lot of bitches weren't wearing nails back here.

[Bob]

RuPaul wasn't wearing nails.

[Monet]

I know. I think Chanel looks really good.

[Bob]

Reeves started wearing nails during my season.

[Monet]

Oh, really?

[Bob]

Yep.

[Monet]

Work.

[Bob]

And let's go into her. To her swimsuit. Her swimsuit, Mandarin look. And yeah, this looks great. I love this hat with the hair

[Monet]

hole in it and a long ponytail. Which Sasha Colby selling ponytails now. Girl. I said she better.

[Bob]

She better work.

[Monet]

Yeah.

[Bob]

I mean, if I had the foundation to buy one, I would support.

[Monet]

Yeah. I think Chanel 8, this looks. So she made. She made all this.

[Bob]

What do you think of her? Her. Her. Her evening wear 8.

[Monet]

This looks amazing.

[Bob]

Yeah, she looks really, really good. She just killed it across the board. I don't know where her Mandarin is.

[Monet]

I don't know either.

[Bob]

But it has on her hip. Maybe.

[Monet]

Yeah, maybe.

[Bob]

Yeah. Chanel looks really good. Ain't gonna lie. So up next we have Rebecca Glasscock, who will wear a flat wig if it is the last thing she does. She will shake a wig and she

[Monet]

will go,

[Bob]

how do you feel about her?

[Monet]

This is what. Who is wearing that to the office? This, like, shredded. She just looks so bad. And like this, like, light lip and this wig, it is so bad.

[Bob]

It's not A good look. I cannot in good faith say that

[Monet]

this look is good.

[Bob]

I think you're right. It's not. It's not. It's not for me. It's not for me.

[Monet]

She was. She's lemon.

[Bob]

That being said, her. She looks really good in her swimwear look. She looks so good.

[Monet]

I agree.

[Bob]

Like, it's very simple, but she. I. I just love what she's got going on with her hair, actually. Her hair looks really good here, actually.

[Monet]

Yeah.

[Bob]

And what she's got going on on her head. This. Is this a lace front, or is that her hair?

[Monet]

I don't know. I don't think it's her because her hair is short and.

[Bob]

But you could, like, gel it back, though, right?

[Monet]

Oh, yeah. Maybe. I can't tell because it's so grainy.

[Bob]

I mean, the hairline looks good, and she looks really beautiful.

[Monet]

Yeah. Let's go on to her third look, which was her evening gown. And it was good. I like what she did with the hair. I thought it was really interesting. And the gown was, like, a little flowy. I like this. She looks good.

[Bob]

Yeah, she looks really good. So RuPaul asked the girls, who should go home? And I love that Rebecca was, like, trying to. She was trying to pageant her way out of this answer with every fiber of her being. And RuPaul was like, no, but seriously, I need a name from you, but I am gonna. No, but I really am gonna need you to say her name. So we need you to say that. And then she said Chanel, but everyone else said Rebecca. How. How does it feel?

[Monet]

Chanel said herself.

[Bob]

Oh, that's right. Sorry. That's right, that's right, that's right, that's right. The drama of the drama of the episode which we were talking about. So I sent you the monologue on Facebook. Okay, so Chanel said, and I quote, this is such a. Okay, just to be clear, RuPaul said we should go home. Rebecca said Chanel, Bibi and Nina said Rebecca. And then when they got to Chanel, Chanel decided to say this. I'm so glad you asked me this question. I nominate myself because I don't want to be here anymore. Since day one, I have been judged really hard, and I'm very frustrated that you can't see the personality because I am so fucking real. You have no idea. And I don't feel that I'm being understood here. I am beautiful. I am a beautiful person. And I. Internally and on the outside. And it's so, so frustrating to me that that Image does not seem to be conveyed week after week. When I come into this competition, I walk around, I am freak, and I am negatively critiqued. And she. And RuPaul is like, well, I. I'm sorry. I thought I told you you were beautiful.

[Monet]

Imagine now imagine that. That monologue now.

[Bob]

RuPaul was like, I. I just felt like I said it. RuPaul was like, I don't know.

[Monet]

I'm apologizing. He was like, I'm sorry. I was like, what?

[Bob]

I'm playing it. I'm playing it back in my head. And I. I thought I did, but you know what? I guess I didn't. Slip of the tongue. I'm so sorry. You are beautiful. She was like, thank you. Thank you. And I still say myself. Bye.

[Monet]

And with that being said, she ends up in the bottom with. With Rebecca. But I would have put Rebecca and Nina. Do you think that RuPaul put in the bottom because she said herself.

[Bob]

Yeah. You know, Chanel had a. Chanel and Bibi had the best packages, I really believe. But also, girl, Chanel didn't want to be there no more, and it's giving, like, let the girl go. I mean, I don't know why she did. I mean, she kind of kind of eliminated herself, because I don't think she really fought during the lip sync either. You know what I mean?

[Monet]

Yeah.

[Bob]

So it's like, girl, like, I would. Honestly, I feel. Okay, let me think. I've never been in a situation like this before. I've never been in RuPaul's position, but I feel like if I was there and someone's like, I want to go home, I'd be like, all right, you got to do what you got to do.

[Monet]

Yeah, I agree. I would have been like, all right, then you're going home.

[Bob]

So it is written. I hate when RuPaul says that. So it is written.

[Monet]

Why?

[Bob]

Something about it's kind of cheesy. And I also feel like RuPaul missed the opportunity to say, with great. With great drag comes great responsibility. Like, she just straight up saying the quote from Spider Man. Just straight up saying the Spider man quote. I said, girl, you could at least flip it on his head. RuPaul's like, with great power. Stan Lee's like, bitch.

[Monet]

But Bebe wins the challenge. Congratulations. She's in the final three, along with Nina West. I mean, Nina.

[Bob]

Nina Bonina west, flowers. Nina Bonina west, flowers.

[Monet]

And the lipstick was good. I think she.

[Bob]

Wait, are there more Ninas than any name in the history of US Drag Race?

[Monet]

Nina West.

[Bob]

There's three Ninas.

[Monet]

Nina, Flowers, Maybe

[Bob]

also Sasha's. Sasha, Bel, Velor, and Colby as well. Oh, there's three Sashas.

[Monet]

No Monet.

[Bob]

But, you know, there are a lot of Brian's, a lot of Brian's and a lot of Kevins.

[Monet]

Only two. Only two Kevin's.

[Bob]

Who's the other Kevin? Oh, your homegirl from your season, Mohart.

[Monet]

Yeah, we're only two Kevin.

[Bob]

No, that's not Candy.

[Monet]

Candy is Kevin.

[Bob]

Interesting. Candy muses of Kevin.

[Monet]

Kevin, why are you looking like that?

[Bob]

Added, she does not look a Kevin.

[Monet]

Why she look like.

[Bob]

I don't know. Paul. She like a Paul.

[Monet]

She gives me.

[Bob]

Or maybe. Or maybe a Paolo. Like, like if her name was Paolo and everyone called her Paul.

[Monet]

I see Jose.

[Bob]

That's, that's Vanjie.

[Monet]

I know Vanjie's Jose, but I can see that for Candy. For Candy as well.

[Bob]

You have a favorite name of all the Drag Race girls? I think my favorite is Airline.

[Monet]

No, I don't really know girls named boys names like that, to be honest.

[Bob]

I don't know a lot of them, but Airline is just a great name. I love that name. And Sutan.

[Monet]

I like, I like Plastique. Duck.

[Bob]

Duck, yeah. Anyway, have you ever seen that girl,

[Monet]

that Canada Drag Race girl that go. I, I, I find it to be so funny.

[Bob]

Oh, she goes to the girl and says their legal name.

[Monet]

This shit is so good. I live people like. And all the fans like, I can't believe you. I was like, why? I was like, it's funny. Like, y' all shut the fuck up. I think it's funny.

[Bob]

Well, humor is subjective, but so are feelings, right?

[Monet]

No, feelings are. Feelings aren't subjective. Feelings aren't subjective.

[Bob]

Were they facts?

[Monet]

They're not facts, but they're not subjective either.

[Bob]

Then what are they?

[Monet]

The opposite of. I think the opposite of the opposite. The opposite of facts is not subjectivity.

[Bob]

Like, the feeling of happiness is subjective. Like, if some, if you're happy, it's like, it's up to you. You have the ability to decide whether or not you're happy. So, like, whether or not you are happy is not subjective. But the feeling of happiness is subjective.

[Monet]

Well, that's what I was saying, bitch. Anyway, we gotta wrap this up or I need to run to. Or I need to run to Cold Stone. And they close it. They close in 18 minutes.

[Bob]

Well, then you need to start planning better, honey, because we still have another 10 minutes left in this fight, and we're not going to shortchange like your Little assistant our people. Because. Because you also showed up a little late to the meeting. And then I had to shut my computer down because I haven't shut it

[Monet]

down in three weeks. We got to finish this class, but we gonna be five weeks short today. I need. I need. I have not had cold stone in years. I need to have cold like my body needs it.

[Bob]

Then, bitch, Uber eats it.

[Monet]

They won't deliver because they close in 10 minutes.

[Bob]

What's your sister doing? His. Don't you hate whenever you mention something and someone's like, make your sister.

[Monet]

That's out of control and unhinged?

[Bob]

Well, you'll be.

[Monet]

You'll.

[Bob]

You'll literally be. You'll literally be like, oh, man, I gotta take my car down to the dmv. Make your sister do it.

[Monet]

That is so unhinged.

[Bob]

I'm like, yeah, what do y' all think Assistant Vienna Street's doing? Just our bidding. I mean, Kennedy. You have sent Kennedy to wash your car.

[Monet]

That's wild.

[Bob]

I said. But I said, the dmv. I was at a photo shoot, and I didn't have time to wash my car. And I was like, my car needs to be. By the way, fun fact. If you are a person who's thinking about getting your car wrapped matte black, you have to wash your car more frequently when it's matte than you do when it's not. That I've had an unmatted car in that long. I'm also thinking about unwrapping my car and just going back to having it be white.

[Monet]

Why?

[Bob]

I don't know. Because when your car is wrapped, if you get a little ding, then it shows through. My car is actually white.

[Monet]

Right.

[Bob]

So there's, like, one little ding in a door. I noticed. I left town, I came back, there was a ding. Jacob drove it around. Next thing I know, there's a ding in the door. I'm not saying he did it, but I'm not. I'm just saying I came back and there was a ding in the door, and I was like, damn, you can see a little white in the ding in the door. Jacob, do you want to come clean about the ding in the door?

[Monet]

Stop saying the ding in the door. The alliteration is driving.

[Bob]

I have not driven the car since you live in left town. No, but you. But you went with Rose and you went with Mikey. Y' all were in the car. You drove, y'. All. I was not driving. But do you know you also specifically asked me to drive your car, so it didn't but you were in the car. So do you know about the ding in the door? You were in the car with the. Oh, yeah, we. We hit somebody and killed them.

[Monet]

The ding in the door. Ding in the door.

[Bob]

So the top. We have a top three. Rebecca Glasscock, Nina Flowers, and Bebe Zahara Benet. And I think with. I think that obviously not. Obviously. It's not obvious. I'm trying to stop saying obviously. I do think that Chanel was probably a fiercer competition than Rebecca, but I think that Chanel was not cut out for competition at this moment in her life.

[Monet]

Yeah, I think. Yes or no. I think that she was. I just think that she lived again. I think we've all. And I speak for everyone, but most of us who have done Drag Race, there have been a time when the competition has gotten the best of us. We've been able to overcome it, and Chanel could not.

[Bob]

Never got the better of me.

[Monet]

Yes, it did. You literally were in a. In a. In a. You were yelling across the room at another girl. Is that something you would do regularly? No, the comments are gonna. You.

[Bob]

Yes. Kitchen.

[Monet]

Oh, what's that? No, you mean. You mean. You mean Our lady of Saliva, Jacob. Where. This nigga had a fucking meltdown upstairs.

[Bob]

I can't do this.

[Monet]

Thank you, Jacob. Yes. Oh, yeah. Shut your.

[Bob]

Digging the door ass up. Yo, yo. No driving, bumping cars into people's ass. Shut the hell up, Jacob. Go get your fucking ice cream. Go have your ice cream, bitch, because it's done.

[Monet]

Okay. I love you very much. This is a very fun episode. And the next civil rivalry. Maybe not say that, but we are going to do one about the pretty funny palette, because I have stories for days for y' all for this motherfucker.

[Bob]

What are you talking. What are these stories?

[Monet]

Don't worry. Let me do it. You'll find out if you don't remember, don't worry.

[Bob]

Bye.
