Used me for cheap labor.

[Monet X Change]

Okay, you volunteered for cheap labor.

Oh, my God. Money. This is so bad, girl. Oh, my God.

[Monet X Change]

I was. Those are times I was obsessed with white lashes and.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But what's going on with your complexion? Why is it so, like, textured?

[Monet X Change]

Cause I put glitter. I put glitter all over my skin.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But you gotta put glitter in, like, the certain spots.

[Monet X Change]

I know, girl. I just put glitter on the whole face.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Also, Monet was very interested in making her body look bigger than it was. Monet was like, how big? The biggest. Rhinestones. The most. I will never forget when you came on those fucking. You know how I feel about those shoes. And you covered your big uber xls in feathers. Mon. Yeah, Monet has giant feet.

[Monet X Change]

Giant pants.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You're small.

[Monet X Change]

Stop saying I. You don't have small feet.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

My feet are smaller than yours slightly, but. But smaller than your boats. I put them on a shoe. I walk out of her shoes.

[Monet X Change]

Okay. I have to say, do you. I like. I love the paneling. It. Your room is so dark now, though.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Okay.

[Monet X Change]

Like, before, it's be light. It is dark. I feel like you're, like, in, like, in, like, fucking Batman's lair. Batman.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Joker.

[Monet X Change]

Why does everyone do that fucking Batman voice? Ever since. Ever since Christopher. What's his name? The man did it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Christian.

[Monet X Change]

Christian Bale. Everyone's like. Even Robert Patterson was like, yeah, I'm the Batman. I'm like, stop doing that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't like it. I. I think. Okay, who's the hottest Batman? Ooh, I'm gonna say George Clooney. Val Kilmer was also quite hot.

[Monet X Change]

Val Kilmer played Batman?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah. Rip.

[Monet X Change]

Hold on.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

He was Batman with.

[Monet X Change]

[Bob the Drag Queen]

With Uma Thurman. I think it was him.

[Monet X Change]

No, that was.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That Clooney.

[Monet X Change]

I think you're right.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It was Val Kilmer.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, yeah. No, Val Kilmer is the hottest one. You kidding me? Wait, he died?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, like last year or maybe the year before. No, this year. Or either late last year or early this year. Val Kilmer passed away. Yeah.

[Monet X Change]

From what?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't know. I don't know.

[Jacob]

He died in April of this month, and he died from Pneumonia.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Had pneumonia.

[Monet X Change]

Wow.

[Jacob]

Respiratory failure.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, no.

[Jacob]

And some other stuff.

[Monet X Change]

He looks like, you know, almost looks like Patrick Swayze.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Patrick Swayze?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. Like he, he could have been into Wong Fu.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Val Kilmer does not like Patrick Swayze.

[Monet X Change]

I see it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Val Kilmer and Patrick Swayze.

[Monet X Change]

I literally type in PA and everything is Val Kilmer, Patrick Swayze. That's what literally everyone is. What the search is.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, they both, you know what it is? They both have pretty faces.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, they both have very pretty faces.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like Val Kilmer was low key giving cunt. Right. Like young Val Kilmer was kind of cunt. Right?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh my God, he is cunt. Wow. Girl, he could have been. Yeah, he could have been into Wong Fu. He would have gave. Yeah, girl, he would have really gave.

[Monet X Change]

She's pretty good for her. Are there any straight celebrities that you wish were gay?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Wiz Khalifa.

[Monet X Change]

Not, not for that. But just like you wish you were part of the.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, not for.

[Monet X Change]

Oh no, just you wish you apart. Because they're so dope. You like, I wish I. Oh my God, I wish Oprah was a big lesbian.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I do believe that Hillary Clinton is a lesbian. Like with every fiber of my being. I firmly believe she's a lesbian. Genuinely?

[Monet X Change]

Why Genuinely, like why?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She has dyke vibes.

[Monet X Change]

So you think, you think Hillary Clinton is a lesbian, but she just, she won't, she can't act on it because of like her situation.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, she's married. Once she's married, I don't think that a former president would want to publicly get divorced.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. How does it ever. Has it ever happened?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Not to my knowledge.

[Monet X Change]

You think Hillary Clinton's a lesbian?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I, I genuinely think she's a lesbian. You don't think like, look at her.

[Monet X Change]

Jacob.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What? Jacob.

[Jacob]

When I was in college, I was taking a class and there was a woman in it who is like, she was in her like 40s or 50s and taking it, I don't know, for a second degree or something. And she would always talk about how when she was like a lesbian Partying in the 90s, Hillary Clinton was out.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

In the bars with her.

[Jacob]

And to be fully honest, it's kind of giving like 50 year old woman taking a college course in New York at night. But like that was the story she really would die on that hill for.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I believe it. I really believe she's a lesbian. I think she came out. It actually do a lot of. Do a lot of good.

[Monet X Change]

Well, she got hot sauce on her bag. Swag. I'll never forgive Hillary for that. I will never Forgive her going on.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That apparently she really doesn't care hot sauce in her bag. Apparently that's what, that's what everyone is convinced. No, she really does care hot sauce in her bag. And she did not say. She did not say I have a hot sauce in my bag. Swag. She just said I carry hot sauce in my bag. She did not.

[Monet X Change]

No, it wasn't just that. She was on the thing and she's on there and then she pulls it out of her purse to show I.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

People said that she really does carry house in her bag. Now she did live in Arkansas for a while and. And Southerners are known for carrying. She's not a Southern. She's from Illinois, I believe.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. Bill Clinton is from Arkansas. She's not.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But she lived there because she was. She's his wife and he was the governor. So she must have picked up some Southern isms because Southerners. We do carry seasoning. You've seen I, I carry sometimes seasoning in my bag.

[Monet X Change]

Well, that's weird. You just had Bob will carry popcorn seasoning and then just go to the restaurant, put it on random on, not on.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I put it on fries. I put the nacho cheese flavoring on my fries. Or I will take it to the movie theater with. Last time I went to the movies, I didn't have it. I was so upset with myself.

[Monet X Change]

Can you pull up that clip really quick and play it on mute? I just want to see it. I remember being. It being awkward. Like girl. What? My girl what?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think it's not far fetched that she would carry. I. If I could carry ranch in my bag, I would.

[Monet X Change]

Oh yeah, it was with the Breakfast Club.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I do. I think she carries hot sauce in her bag. I really do. Hillary Clinton is in great shape for a woman her age. My God, that's the one. That's the one.

[Monet X Change]

I remember she. That it was. I mean, maybe, maybe she didn't pull out. I thought she.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, you rewriting history.

[Monet X Change]

Maybe she did. Maybe. You know what it is? I think, I think I'm confusing this audio with the. I think SNL did a sketch also of her pulling it out and I was like, maybe that's to be clear.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yes, black people like hot sauce. But like hot sauce is not exclusive to black people. Like white people use hot sauce.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, I think no one who thinks that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I mean, I think that black people are probably known for being able to eat spicier food than our Caucasian counterpoints counterparts. Yeah, but Jacob likes spicy food.

[Monet X Change]

Andy likes spicy food. I'll Tell you, one of our first dates, Andy cooks for me, and the food is actually seasoned very nicely and tastes very good. No shade. That's not a white thing. I was like, andy just look like he don't like good food. You know what I mean?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, I don't. Andy looks like he eats a lot. Andy looks like he likes to eat. Andy looks like he.

[Monet X Change]

Everything about Andy, you think Andy's someone that. That can. That can. That will be that. Like, that be out here seasoning good food.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Andy looks like. Andy looks like he. Andy looks like he claps when the appetizers come to the table. Andy looks like this.

[Monet X Change]

He does do that, actually.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So. So no. So I know Andy looks like he.

[Monet X Change]

He dabbles anything, though. That's why I'm like, he. Like he don't care if it's season. Eat it anyway.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And I got to tell y', all, like, I know we've mentioned on the podcast before, but, like, I really can't overstate the amount of food Andy eats. It is insanely impressive. Like, Andy will eat his entire meal, and then he will look to your plate like this. He does this. You know? You know he does this.

[Monet X Change]

Very.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Am I lying? Did I lie? So you're. He's scanning the room to see what he can eat off of your plate, and it's ins. It's crazy. And he just never. He's never done eating.

[Monet X Change]

Tao does that to me.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Tao has never. Tao did not do that to you.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, yes, he did.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You met once and we didn't. No one ate anything except me. On that. On that music, y'.

[Monet X Change]

All. So we. We doing karaoke, and Bob takes his time to do a 13 minute number on his 30 minute solo number. The Gods Love the Man, Whatever the fuck the song is.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It was called the Origin of Love, and it's from Hedwig.

[Monet X Change]

The Origin of Love. Bob thinks a fucking.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It's a five minute song.

[Monet X Change]

It was like a ten minute song.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It's not a ten minute song, girl. I'm gonna look it up right now. The Origin of love is not a 10 minute song.

[Monet X Change]

Child and I were supposed to know. Damn, can we play, too?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think what happened was you were so. You were so unused to the spotlight not being on you for literally three seconds unused.

[Monet X Change]

I don't think you use that in the. You can't say it's it on you. Oh, on you.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

The song is 5 minutes and 30 seconds long. And then you did it. And then you did a solo after.

[Monet X Change]

That was two minutes.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Was it I'll cover you. Let's see. I'll cover you. Reprise.

[Monet X Change]

Reprise. Maybe. Maybe 2, 247.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

The song is 3 minutes and 29 seconds. 3 minutes, 39 seconds.

[Monet X Change]

That's 2 minutes less than you.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, it's 2 minutes, 120 seconds, Monet.

[Monet X Change]

That's a long time.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I can hold my breath for that long.

[Monet X Change]

No, you can't. For two minutes.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I can't. No. I have very, very weak lung capacity.

[Monet X Change]

I wonder why. I wonder why.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It was before I started doing that, allegedly.

[Monet X Change]

We won't know. Because you never tested it before, so we actually don't know.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I have tested it before. You think I just figured out I had a poor lung capacity?

[Monet X Change]

Have you ever been to an allergist?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No. No. But I did get. I did develop allergies in my 30s.

[Monet X Change]

You should go to an allergist. You'll find out what you're allergic to.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Your life, not allergies.

[Monet X Change]

I'm not saying that's the deviated septum. I'm having a completely different conversation. I think it's from the allergist for.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Doing cocaine with Tina Burner in the bathroom at Hardware.

[Monet X Change]

Because there may be something.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I've never done. Cocaine in the bathroom.

[Monet X Change]

That you're allergic to. That you have no idea. And then you're gonna do it. And then you're gonna. And you could, like, risk your life. You should. Everyone should go to an allergist. You never know.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I gotta be honest with you. I don't think I'm allergic to anything.

[Monet X Change]

I do, too. I live life, too. And you find out you're allergic to things.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't think I'm allergic to anything.

[Monet X Change]

I don't think that's true.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like, what would I be allergic to?

[Monet X Change]

You could be. You could be allergic to strawberries. You could be allergic to things that you don't know. Okay, that's just one idea. There are other things. There are millions of things in the world. You could be allergic to a certain type of plant, a fern.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I am allergic to mosquitoes. But my reaction is not violent. It's Just that everyone gets, like, a little bump and I get a huge amount, but it still itches the same amount. But you know when you get a mosquito bite and it looks like a little ant bite? Mine looked like welts. It looked like someone hit me with a paddle or something.

[Monet X Change]

Tight like a drum.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, this pussy tight like a drum. What? You know what she says?

[Monet X Change]

Why is it drum tight?

[Jacob]

I thought it was pussy tight like a nun. Beat it up like a drum.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

There it is. This pussy tight like a nun. You beat it up like a drum, then wipe her mouth when you done. Okay. I'm hot like Nevada pussy. Get papa. I look like money. You could prep my face on a dollar. Beat it up. Bong, bong, bong. That's why Goes didn't get the credit it deserved.

[Monet X Change]

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Just. I want to apologize. That was very inconsiderate, and I would like you to. It was. It was very incense. I apologize. Please tell your. It's like. It was like a Disney movie.

[Monet X Change]

It really was. It was a little bee in my pool drowning, like.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like, fighting for 50 seconds to wrap it up.

[Monet X Change]

Fighting for its life. Swimming, swimming, swimming. I was like. So I. This is how. Like, this is how God intervenes for us sometimes, right? Like, I played God for this beat. I came in my hands, I picked it up, I brought it to the shore. And then it was.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

The shore is crazy.

[Monet X Change]

It was trying to, like, it was trying to get all the water off of it. There was so much water off it. So it's working, working hard, and I'm filming and filming. And then it stopped moving for like a minute. I was like, oh, my God. It died. Then it started to move again. I was like, oh, my God. So then I was, do I give a sugar water? I didn't know what to do. And then I, like, aired it out. I was blowing on it so it can get some more air. It's getting all the water off of it. And then as I'm filming it, it spreads its wings and it just flies away. And it was just so beautiful that I got to nurse this bee back to hell to life. And it got a new. It could have drowned and died in that water. But I saved it. I was God for it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It doesn't seem selfless the way you talk about it.

[Monet X Change]

I didn't say it was selfless.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It seemed like you were doing it, like, for your. Your ego. Not for the bee.

[Monet X Change]

I don't know for my ego, but.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

The way you relay this, like, I was God.

[Monet X Change]

I was God for this B.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But this is not a Disney movie anymore. You're a villain.

[Monet X Change]

How am I a villain? Because I helped it out.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, like you say, like, the bee owes you something.

[Monet X Change]

I didn't say the B owes me anything. That'd be. That'd be full way.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And I would love to. If the bee would have stung you, what would have happened then?

[Monet X Change]

It. What?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

If the bee would have stung you, how would you feel then?

[Monet X Change]

I would have been sad. But you know what it was. It would be justified. It was probably a defensive reaction.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Okay. You're gaining some humanity back, which I appreciate, which I like very, very much.

[Monet X Change]

You know, bees are very important to our plan. Be. People don't realize bees are really crucial to our everyday existence.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think people know that.

[Monet X Change]

I don't think a lot of people know that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

If the bees are gone, we die. If honeybees disappear from the planet, honeybees go to st. We have, like, two years to live.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, I think that people. But you people will kill a bee. They will swat out a bee. You should never swat and kill bees.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I would kill a bee.

[Monet X Change]

Why?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What's the largest animal you would kill without feeling bad about it? Like, how big do you get to kill and not feel bad?

[Monet X Change]

I mean, would you kill an ant?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Let's find the spot. Would you kill an ant?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Would you kill a roach?

[Monet X Change]

Yes.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Would you kill a lizard?

[Monet X Change]

No.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Okay, let's go back down a little bit. Would you kill a slug?

[Monet X Change]

I mean, as a kid, I used to. As an adult. No, not anymore. As a kid, I used to. In touch with. We had big African slugs. I would literally just go and get salt and just pour it on and watch them melt.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It was kind of a kid from Toy Story.

[Monet X Change]

It was. It was. It was horrible.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Okay, so a slug is.

[Monet X Change]

We.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Is a slug the. A spider?

[Monet X Change]

Yes, a little spider. The like a daddy long leg, which is not a spider. It's an insect.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I mean, yeah, but that long is not an insect. It is A daddy long leg is an arachnid. They have eight legs. How many legs does a daddy long leg have? They have eight legs. That is an arachnid. Do you want to apologize? Don't keep googling. Don't, don't search until you find your bias.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, yeah, it is. You're right. You're right. Yeah. Right.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, not you're right. I want an apology.

[Monet X Change]

Wait, so how many legs do spiders have?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

8. They're arachnids. A dead one.

[Jacob]

Legs are spiders.

[Monet X Change]

To answer the question, daddy long legs could be a harvestman. An arachnid, not a spider.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What's an arachnid but it's not an insect? Do you. Are you gonna apologize to me or what?

[Monet X Change]

Wait, but you and Jacob are saying. Are you saying it's.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You're saying I said a daddy long leg is an arachnid, and I said.

[Jacob]

It was a spider, but I, I probably am wrong. I, I assumed it was, but I, I, I'm gonna.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Don't gotta find talk about you being wrong, Monet. Don't try to find out where. Find out where you're wrong. Where are you wrong?

[Monet X Change]

These are arachnids. Like spiders and scorpions, but they are.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Answer the question. Where were you wrong?

[Monet X Change]

No, because you're wrong. These are arachnids.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I said a daddy long leg is.

[Monet X Change]

An arachnid, but they are not spiders themselves.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Monet. I said a daddy long leg is an arachnid.

[Monet X Change]

Okay.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Where are you wrong, Monet?

[Monet X Change]

I said. I literally said, I don't know.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I said, no, you said they're not spiders, they're insects. And I said they're not insects, they're arachnids. I said they have eight legs.

[Monet X Change]

Are arachnids insects?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, arachnids are not insects. Insects have six legs.

[Monet X Change]

Hold on. No, arachnids are not insects, okay?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I just told you that. All insects have six legs. Unless there's been an injury or an. Or an anomaly.

[Monet X Change]

So what is a centipede or a millipede? I don't know.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It's a bug.

[Monet X Change]

Wait. All insects have six legs.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Every insect has six legs.

[Jacob]

Centipedes are not insects. They belong to a different class of arthropods called Chylopoda chilopoda.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

All insects have six legs. Oh, wow.

[Monet X Change]

All insects. Yes. All insects. I did not know that. How'd you know that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You did know that because I told you.

[Monet X Change]

No, I just told you.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You knew before you Googled it.

[Monet X Change]

Because I told you before this conversation. I didn't know. How did you know that? Is this something you learned in school?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, we learned it in biology.

[Monet X Change]

Wow.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You never took a. Y' all didn't learn that in biology?

[Monet X Change]

Girl, I told you. My. My fucked up school I went to, we didn't have gym.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So. Insects have six legs, and they have three parts to their body. Their bodies come in three parts. The head, the body, and then whatever the butt's called.

[Jacob]

The thorax.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

The thorax. Whereas arachnids all have eight legs.

[Monet X Change]

And what is. So what. What is a mantis?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

A praying mantis is an insect.

[Monet X Change]

Right.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Y'. All. Y' all don't have to do a bug farm or. Or what do you call it when you. When you kill them? I killed them. We did kill them. And you put them in the. You kill them and then you have to, like, do a. What do you call it when you kill?

[Jacob]

Dissection.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Not dissection. You, like, you display them. You had to display the bugs? No, we had to capture bugs. And then we would freeze them to death, and then we would thaw them out, and then we splay out the legs and the wings and pin them down.

[Monet X Change]

That is so horrible, Monet.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We dissected pigs and cats.

[Monet X Change]

You told me this. And the girl took it home and boiled it. Some crazy. I remember this story.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, she didn't boil it. She took it home. She was supposed to boil it, but her mother wouldn't let her bring it back. So we failed.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, I would. I don't know.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We almost failed. We then had to split up into other groups because our. Our cat was taken.

[Monet X Change]

That story is crazy, that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That y' all didn't catch bugs?

[Monet X Change]

No, not catching bugs.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, we had to go catch bugs.

[Monet X Change]

That's so nasty. Like, we're like, I'll just. Out in the woods.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, I live. I live near the.

[Monet X Change]

I live.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

There are a lot of trees in Georgia.

[Monet X Change]

Okay, so what. What if you have bugs in your neighborhood? Then what?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

There's bug. Everyone, there's bugs everywhere.

[Monet X Change]

I don't have bugs in my house.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I didn't say. We didn't say in your house. I said. You didn't say find bugs in your home. You go outside and find bugs. There are bugs. There are bugs in your yard right now?

[Monet X Change]

No, I don't have bugs here.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

One the Monet. There are 100 bugs in your yard.

[Monet X Change]

I have Orchid. Orchid Comes Orchid man comes to my house once a month and sprays everything. I just. Yeah, I used to have spider webs everywhere he came and there are no. All the bugs are gone.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Monet, you have bugs in your yard.

[Monet X Change]

Come find them.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I could easily come find the bugs then. Okay. I mean, I'm. We're doing a podcast right now. So what are you going to do? So what are you going to do? Can I get some more push ups? When you're wrong, I would like for you to say that you're wrong about them being. I don't. You're not going to say it. I know you were wrong. You're not going to say it. Everyone listening knows, and I'm being as. As. As ridiculous as you would have been if I would have said something like that. I'm meeting you where you're at.

[Monet X Change]

Illegal. That I would never. That was. That was the craziest thing I've ever heard you say.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That's how I say illegal.

[Monet X Change]

That's illegal.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't think I'm saying it Crazy. Illegal activity.

[Monet X Change]

That's illegal, Bob. You know it's illegal.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But I'm. But my accent, Monet. It's not coffee, but we don't mind when Wendy Williams has coffee.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, and it's not. It's not. It's not earring. I say airing, but you don't let that go either.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, but it sounds funny.

[Monet X Change]

Illegal sounds crazy.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Does it sound that crazy, Jacob? Do you think illegal sounds that crazy? What sounds crazier, illegal or airings?

[Monet X Change]

I don't say earrings.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You do say earrings. Wait, what.

[Jacob]

What word are you. How would you pronounce it, Monet?

[Monet X Change]

Illegal.

[Jacob]

That's illegal.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, but when I say that's illegal, does that sound as crazy to say I have. If I said I have. If I said this, can you both say the word?

[Jacob]

Because it doesn't sound like you're saying it different, Bob.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm saying that's illegal. That's illegal.

[Jacob]

Oh, you're saying illegal.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, yeah, that's illegal.

[Monet X Change]

A. Like he's saying there's a L E, G. A L. There's a legal person here.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No. Okay, but if I said to someone, those are illegal earrings. Those are illegal earrings. And they would not have. If they were like, blown away by anything. It would not be me saying illegal. I said those are illegal earrings. They'd be like, I'm sorry, what can you say?

[Jacob]

Can you say she's carrying and she's carrying an illegal document?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She's carrying a legal document. She's carrying an illegal document.

[Monet X Change]

I will say this. I went. I've gone 34 years and no one ever say anything about. About Air Bear Care earrings ever. Okay.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah. And I never heard anyone say that he talks funny until he met me. But I keep it real.

[Monet X Change]

No one had ever said to me.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm real because that's what I am now. Go. Now go hide, Cassidy.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, God. Here we go.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Disappear, ghost. You are a very old lady. You need to act your age.

[Monet X Change]

And not 12.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And not 12. You are a very old lady. Is so crazy to say to someone, by the way, I am wearing my pear eyewear and you all can use the code. I love. I really love this.

[Monet X Change]

I'm wearing pair eyewear today too.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Are you? Oh, you are? Yeah.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Anyway, I have a question for you. So years ago, we talked on the podcast for years ago, Monet just text me was like, what? Anyway, anyways, anyways.

[Monet X Change]

Do you. Do you hear how short it gets now do you hear it?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That's how I said it my whole life.

[Monet X Change]

Anyway, so I want to know, Mona, if you want.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Anyway, years ago, Monet texted me and was like, I'm on my way to audition for Aladdin.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, my God.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I was so excited for Mo. I was like, oh, my God. Why didn't you say anything? She was like, girl, it's whatever. I was like, no. This is so exciting.

[Jacob]

This was pre Drag Race.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Pre both of us. Pre drag race for both of us.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And I wanted to help Monet with her audition, but she did not let me help her. Monet never lets me help her with her auditions for stuff. You never let me help you.

[Monet X Change]

You never. You've. You've. You volunteered. Maybe only that one time.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I also think it's weird. I want to say this right now. Life be life. And it's a great show. It's weird that you didn't ask me to help. I'm gonna say it. It's weird that you went to Ben and not me. Why? I think you and Ben did a great job. It is weird.

[Monet X Change]

But Ben, that is whole. That is Ben's hold back. I've never seen you do a one woman show. I've seen many. Ben. One Ben's.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yes, you have.

[Monet X Change]

What? Which one?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What the fuck was crazy Black lady?

[Monet X Change]

No, but, but did you watch me.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Do once a week over at Barracuda?

[Monet X Change]

That's different.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What about my stand up comedy? I have three specials out.

[Monet X Change]

The Ben's, Ben's Women Show. They're like. They're like. They're Narrative based. So they're. They're not. They're not just.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, what am I just.

[Monet X Change]

Yours are not bullshit. But yours are. You're like. You're.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What am I sitting on my thumb, fingering myself?

[Monet X Change]

Crazy back lady was centered around music. There's a whole, like, music thing about it. Your stuff.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, the theme was about madness. The whole thing. I had the straight jacket. I had the Hannibal Lecter thing. I had videos.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, but mine wasn't as like, Mine wasn't that. Mine wasn't the same type of one on one show. Ben. Ben. Mine was even reduced from what Ben does in her Wonder Woman shows.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I just think it's weird that you didn't ask me.

[Monet X Change]

Well, we do a lot together, and I get your advice on a lot.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Of things, but not performance stuff. It's like you don't trust me.

[Monet X Change]

What the fuck are you talking about? What is this narrative?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You don't want me to help you. You don't. If I find out that Drag Lab karaoke is happening and Ben's producing it, I'm never speaking to you again. Yeah, I'm not joking, bitch.

[Monet X Change]

Why would Ben be producing Drag Lab karaoke?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Why would Ben be helping with your one woman show and not me?

[Monet X Change]

Because Ben. I've seen many of Ben and women's shows. I wanted to do a one woman show that was similar to.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You think her shows are better than mine?

[Monet X Change]

Oh, my God. Okay, if that's what you got from that, I can't help you, babe. I can't help you.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Answer it. Answer the question.

[Monet X Change]

I can't help you, babe.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Just answer the question.

[Monet X Change]

I think the way that Brandon has done her one of my shows, I wanted to fashion mine similar in. In a similar way. You all. Y' all do different types of Wonder Woman shows.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We do. We do.

[Monet X Change]

And with. With. With Aladdin.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

B shows are great. This is no shade to Ben. This is all shade to Monet.

[Monet X Change]

And with Aladdin, I should have got your cuz, to be honest, auditioning for Broadway and auditioning for how I was accustomed to auditioning for opera. It was night and day. And you know what? If I could go back in time, I would have had you help me, because I had no idea how to audition for Broadway shows. I probably. I walked in there looking crazy.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

How did you get that audition?

[Monet X Change]

I don't remember. I don't remember.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So was it back backstage?

[Monet X Change]

Backstage what?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Backstage is. I don't even know if backstage still exists anymore. But it was a. It was a magazine.

[Jacob]

It still exists for sure, it used.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

To be a magazine. It's probably online now, but it was a magazine that would just print out all the theater auditions, regional theater, Broadway dance companies.

[Monet X Change]

Someone told me from Opera World, like, they were like, hey, you're a great singer. You should audition for Aladdin. It's coming to Broadway. So I think I gotta connect through opera somehow.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Actually, you look like you'd be the genie.

[Monet X Change]

I feel like I would. I feel like I would have done a really good job with the genie.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You're a little young, though. You're a little young to be the genie.

[Monet X Change]

Do you think that. Do you think that the genie could be in drag?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think it. I think it'd make less sense.

[Monet X Change]

Well, so I had Wayne Brady on Monetos and we were talking about. And I was like.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

He's like.

[Monet X Change]

He's like, would you want to do Broadway? I was like, yeah, I would love to do Broadway. He's like, what are some roles? I was like, well, I think you were amazing. The Wiz. I was like, if they ever did it again, I should be the Wiz in drag. He was like, and he looks at the camera and the producer's woman's name, I forget her name. He was like, let's say her name is Suzanne. Berta. Suzanne. Berta. You. This is a brilliant idea that Monet has come up with here. We have to get her into the Wiz and the Wiz being dragged. Can you imagine? I think I said this before. They come into Emerald City. I'm the Wiz in full drag, high key.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What are you wearing?

[Monet X Change]

Ooh, I'm wearing a big, big. Think like big blonde, beautiful mortar mom. Maybelle Mortarmond Beybelle, but crazier. Just like a confection of big blonde thumb. Just in ridiculous wig, either blonde or white, grayish color. And a big emerald green pantsuit gown. Like, you know what, the pants. What's also the gown too.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like the coat is the gown, but.

[Monet X Change]

You'Re wearing the pants, right?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like a high, low coat.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, Big ridiculous collar. Just. Just over the top. The Wiz. Then they come back to Emerald City. Later on, I packed everything up. I am out of drag. I have online.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That's great idea, right? So full T. I actually got an offer, but it just didn't work out with my schedule to direct a show at one of the biggest theaters in Georgia.

[Monet X Change]

Cause what about this?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

One of my theater friends from my childhood is now a producer or some sort of a high up at this big theater. And I got an offer to direct the Wiz. In the Atlanta area.

[Monet X Change]

Can I come be the wizard?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And I actually you were like, I'll see if I'm. I'll see.

[Monet X Change]

Bob, you're giving that this is fake news. You know what, let's take a break. And I'm exposed. This fucking lion.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Did you know that all chips and fries used to be cooked in beef tallow up until the 1990s? Then big corporations cut corners and switched everything over to cheap, processed seed oils. Today's seed oils make up about 20% of the average American's daily calories, and studies have linked them to inflammation and other metabolic health issues. That's why I was so excited when I found Masa. Masa decided to do something about it. Create a tortilla chip with just three clean ingredients organic, nixtamalized corn, sea salt and 100% grass fed beef tallow. No seed oils, no junk.

[Monet X Change]

Okay. So this fucking lying black bitch Bob, I think he said on a podcast. And Bob was like, monet, I'm doing a thing. Would you come be part of my show? No dates, no show, no role.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm so glad that cell phones log everything.

[Monet X Change]

Go ahead.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm so grateful.

[Monet X Change]

There were no dates, there was no show, there was no role. So I'm like, I'm just gonna agree to be a part of it just because you're done.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

There are roles. They're on my back. I'm just gonna.

[Monet X Change]

Just gonna be agreed to doing something just because of. By virtue of it just being you.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, No, I didn't have a date. That's true.

[Monet X Change]

Right. Which is a big part of scheduling anything. A date.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't know how to Google this or to search this, but it was a phone call. It wasn't a text. But I called Mon. No, no.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, I am so. Yeah. Yeah. All.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Right. But I was trying to get Monet because I needed to get Monet to agree to do it first. I wanted. What happened was I called Monet and asked her she would play Evileen. And Monet said, I'd rather play the Wiz. And I said, let me figure it out. But it ended up not working out. My schedule, I was gonna be able to help this. I was gonna be able to direct. Cause I said on the podcast, I want to direct a community theater production. But then I got an actual regional theater, Like, a really nice regional theater reach out to me, because one of my friends is a higher up over there. And he was like, girl, we're working on the list. We can offer you this position to come direct this show. And it was so exciting, but it just ended up not being able to work out, which is so sad. Cause I really want to direct Monet in a show. My dream. I want to put Monet now. I like the idea of you as the Wiz. It would be so good.

[Monet X Change]

It would be amazing, right? It would be amazing. The Wiz in drag will be sick thing.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Would you like to ask me my dream roles? You selfish bitch. I feel like the b.

[Monet X Change]

What's the. What's the dream role you want?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Thank you. I want to play King Herod in Jesus Christ of the Star. I genuinely think I'd be fantastic in that role.

[Monet X Change]

Why?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Why?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So it's a comedic role. The singing is not that hard. It's like, you are the Christ. You're the great Jesus Christ. Proves me that you're divine. Changed my whatsa into wine so you don't have to be able to sing because everyone else in Jesus Christ Superstar, they are singing their asses off.

[Monet X Change]

Are you taking voice lessons? I'm trying to do a bit. Your singing has gotten better over the, like. Well, I'm not even trying to be funny.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think you've grown accustomed to my voice because.

[Monet X Change]

No, you're singing like last time you sang. Ain't too proud. It sounded really good. Okay, it sounded good. I don't mean that sounds shady, but it like your tone. Like, you're like, fixing. Like your tone has gotten better.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I've not taken any singing lessons.

[Monet X Change]

Now you and Cheryl Porter.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What did she say? What is. What's what? She was famous for. Noom noom Noom Noom Noom Noom Noom Noom. No. Is that.

[Monet X Change]

No.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What's the worst?

[Monet X Change]

Something like that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I did a lip sync to it on my part and whatever, it doesn't matter. But no, I've not taken the singing lessons. I was in high school.

[Monet X Change]

Would you, as an adult, you should?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I would, yeah. If I. If I had, like, a role, I would do it.

[Monet X Change]

Okay.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Hot take. I think I have an. An MC in me. A Cabaret MC in me.

[Monet X Change]

I've never seen the show. Does the cabaret. Does the MC sing a lot?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

He does sing, but it's not great singing. It doesn't have to be. I mean, you've had people like Adam Lambert and or. Yeah, but he doesn't have to be a great singer. Like, Joe Gray can sing, but he's not. Joe Gray's not, like, singing, singing. Are you, Alan? Coming. Alan C. Can sing, but he's not like.

[Monet X Change]

Are you in New York? Oh, what are you doing after D.C. andy and I are going to go to New York just to see Cabaret. You should come. I don't know.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What date is that?

[Monet X Change]

The six.

[Jacob]

Is Orville still going to be in it?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, Orville's going to be in it.

[Jacob]

We are going. I'm going.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

All right, all right. Everybody hanging out at me. That's crazy.

[Monet X Change]

Come on, Bob.

[Jacob]

Even though Zada is playing Sally Bowles and I am obsessed with her, she's.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Wait, what's the date?

[Monet X Change]

June 6th. The day after D.C. 6th.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Any night I will be.

[Monet X Change]

We're going to take the train. Up, up.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Hold on.

[Monet X Change]

Well, Jacob, Andy and I are going.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Now on the 6th of June. I have a show.

[Monet X Change]

Damn. Where?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I have. I have. I have a panel after our DC thing in dc.

[Monet X Change]

Got it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So I hope you, Jacob and Andy have a lot of fun. Quite frankly, do what?

[Monet X Change]

Cancel it?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No.

[Monet X Change]

Your boyfriend wants to hang out with you.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Jacob and I hang out. We, we go. We. But, But I'm not going to cancel all my fans.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, Jacob, this is the question. Do you talk to Bob every day? Like, either, either phone call or text. Do you talk to Bob every day or some type of communication?

[Jacob]

I, I, I mean, I, I would say, like, mostly, but, like, maybe, Maybe we skip one day, like every two weeks or every. So for the most part, yes, but not, not like we sometimes get.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Thank you, Jacob. Why do you believe when Jacob said yoli when I say it?

[Monet X Change]

Because you will say anything. You literally try to gaslight it early in this conversation, talking about, I gave Monet the date, the time. Like, no, no, I didn't.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I, I, I need to do my own research.

[Monet X Change]

You did not. Bobby, you.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

First of all, I thank you. The date and time. I did not say I gave you the date and time.

[Monet X Change]

Thank you. So committing to something.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, I did not say I gave you the date and time. I said. You act like I gave you. You act like I was like a play someday somewhere on the, like, pretty much. I said in Atlanta this summer, and I gave you the name of the show.

[Monet X Change]

You didn't have to tell me something. You told me in Atlanta.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I told you in Atlanta. I told you the summer and I told you the name of the show. That's enough. That's all I had.

[Monet X Change]

Well, I can't agree to that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But no, Jacob and I don't. We don't speak every single day. We speak most days. We don't. We don't, we don't communicate every single day, though. Well, I think you, Andy, talk every single day.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, every single day.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I said for y', all since Andy.

[Monet X Change]

And I started dating, there's not been a day I've not spoken to Andy. Why do you think you see that for us?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like, that's like a negative thing.

[Monet X Change]

Is that bad?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That's how you took it?

[Monet X Change]

Because you, you know, you're trying to be incendiary to myself.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That's how you took it.

[Monet X Change]

I see that for y'.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

All. Is it true?

[Monet X Change]

What?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That you speak every single day?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So my assessment was, was correct.

[Monet X Change]

Do, do you in town speak every day?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, not every day. Most days. So I would say, do you and.

[Jacob]

Nick Smith speak every day?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

He was correct. Not a speaking Nick every day. No, no, I don't speak to anyone every day.

[Monet X Change]

I see that there's no one in.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

My life that I speak to every single day. Like, literally. Not one person, Kennedy. Not every day. No.

[Monet X Change]

I see that for you.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Because today I needed my car. She was. No, I spoke to her earlier that day.

[Monet X Change]

The only other person that may be close to that would be Patty. I don't speak. I speak to Patty. I typically don't speak to Patty on the weekends because Patty typically has the weekends off. Obviously, because of the nature of the job there, sometimes Patty has to work on weekends and be whatever. But I definitely speak to Patty Monday through Friday, for sure.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah. There's no one in my life to speak to every single day. Not. Not a single person.

[Monet X Change]

Well, I can give you Andy's number. You can talk to him like me every day. Do what? I can give you Andy's number. You can speak to him every day like he does to me.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

He seems busy with you.

[Monet X Change]

I am a lot.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I might speak to you more days than I don't speak to you.

[Monet X Change]

What the fuck does that mean? I know what it means. But, like.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Okay, but there are seven days in a week, so I'll say four to five times a week. A day. It may be, like, one or two days where we don't have any communication.

[Monet X Change]

So we have to meet in the middle. I want to talk every day, and you don't want to talk very. So I think we need to bump to silly six.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I can communicate with you six times. Six times a week.

[Monet X Change]

Good.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Is there anything else you. You need out of me?

[Monet X Change]

Good.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Jacob is listening. Here's the thing, though. Okay, so I've never been in. Okay, so. I think I'm a good actor.

[Monet X Change]

I think so, too.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I was. I have to let it go. I'm still salty. Didn't come see me in Angels in America. I'm still salty. Oh, my.

[Monet X Change]

Are you fucking kidding me?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm salty.

[Monet X Change]

Are you fucking kidding me?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm not kidding you. I'm salty.

[Monet X Change]

But, okay, we have to do some.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And your excuse isn't good.

[Monet X Change]

We have to do some exercise so we can let this go. We have to figure.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Your excuse was that you were getting ready for All Stars. But I want to point out Naomi came and saw me.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, Naomi, we are different. I was literally in my current season and getting ready for. I was. I was on some Lydia butthole Collins shit. Naomi. It was a few years since she had been on Drag Race. I was going through the thing for the.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I just want to point out that you came to San Francisco.

[Monet X Change]

Right?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You came to the theater.

[Monet X Change]

Right. But I had a show that night, and it didn't even dawn in my Mind to, like, get ready early and go do that and navigate all that, because it was. I had a meet and greet at Oasis and doing the show, so I had to be there at, like, 9:00', clock, and so I could have seen, like, half of your show.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And I added a day. I did. I did. I did, did. I did eight shows a week.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. But we had a gig after that. The next day, Patty and I were on a. We were on a tour, too. We were on a tour in Northern California. We did before that, too. We did. We were doing Sacramento, San Jose, San Francisco. And the other one. There's a fourth one over there.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Day by day by day, I'm.

[Monet X Change]

Yes, girl. That's how these fours work.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Can you prove that to us?

[Monet X Change]

Go back and look.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

There were no days off.

[Monet X Change]

Anyway, what was it?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What? What was the year?

[Monet X Change]

I don't know. Was that 2018?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Monet X change. 2018?

[Jacob]

Yeah, it was 2018.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Okay, so you were.

[Monet X Change]

I would look at my old calendar, but it was with Neverland, so it's deleted.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You were at Oasis. Oasis nightclub, right?

[Monet X Change]

Mm.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So your date at Oasis was.

[Monet X Change]

Huh?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oasis. Here we go. I'd have to scroll so far back to see this.

[Monet X Change]

What month was it?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I.

[Jacob]

You know, if you want to move on with the conversation, I can keep looking.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm just saying that Naomi was able to come see me.

[Monet X Change]

Okay. And I'm so happy for her. I was navigating my newfound fame and ferocity.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So fame changed you?

[Monet X Change]

I couldn't yet navigate all my things that way.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It was a lot, so. So either fame has changed you, or Naomi just better at keeping her life together than you.

[Monet X Change]

Of course. She absolutely was. At that time, I was new to the whole experience, so I think y'. All. This is. This is hilarious, because the other day, we. I don't know what we were talking about. We were on a podcast. We were just hanging out, and Bob's therapist said that Bob moves on from things very easily. And I was like, who? Who did. Bob moves on from things? Because I have not met this girl.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So you think Dr. Shelley just doesn't know how to assess her clients?

[Monet X Change]

Correct you.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I do move on from things very quickly, but I might feel. Monet, I'm salty. Can you acknowledge my feelings, please? Instead of defending yourself, Instead of trying to. Trying to abdicate yourself. Not abdicate. What's. What I'm looking for, defend yourself. Something like abdicate, but instead of trying to, like, clear your name, can you acknowledge my feelings, please?

[Monet X Change]

I acknowledge your feelings.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, that's not. No. Can you use words to acknowledge my feelings? What do you think I'm feeling? Why do you think I feel this way? Tell me. Communicate with me. I'm being very vulnerable with you. Use your words to communicate. Why you think I feel this way?

[Monet X Change]

I think we need a therapist here. I.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Communicate with me.

[Monet X Change]

We should. We should do one about therapy.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Talk to me. Why do you think I feel this way?

[Monet X Change]

Hold on. This is what happens when I. In moments like this, I need a moment to not talk about you see, this is how we. We have different communication styles. Bob and Andy are both. Let's talk about it now.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm not Andy.

[Monet X Change]

Let's talk about it now. I would do it right now. I am the person. I need a beat to remove myself so I don't get frustrated with you or the situation.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, we don't have a beat.

[Monet X Change]

Well, we need a beat.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So you're not. You're not gonna. You're not gonna acknowledge my feelings?

[Monet X Change]

I need. I. I need to come back. No, I.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Acknowledge me.

[Monet X Change]

I'm literally begging, yelling at me to acknowledge you. It's very hard.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Talk to me. You know, I need acknowledgement.

[Monet X Change]

You saw you sound like Uncle Bobby from the Prad family.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

How's it sound, Penny?

[Monet X Change]

Get out of town. You know, I. You know, I like the.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But.

[Monet X Change]

I thought you gonna say, penny, I like your butt. I was like, from her uncle. You know, I understand how it can be frustrating that your best friend did not come see you in a very big show in your career. I understand how frustrating that can be be. And I want to acknowledge that. I see that. I see you and I understand how that can hurt your feelings.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Thank you. Do you think that you could have done. Do you think there was a way that you could have maybe figured out how to come see me? Do you think that's. That was a. That would have been a possibility.

[Monet X Change]

I think that could be the definite possibility at that time. It's something that I didn't consider and it's over my head and I was very stressed out with work. It's not. And it's not a consideration that I could make at that time for you.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Monet, that felt so nice. I never have to bring it up again. Now.

[Monet X Change]

That's not true.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I never have to bring him in. That's all I wanted.

[Monet X Change]

It's gonna rear his ugly head in 2.5 business days money.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I. That was what I got from you now was all I want. I want to thank you so much for your maturity, which is quite Rare, I gotta say.

[Monet X Change]

You see, like. See all of that. All of that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But it felt so nice. My God. Okay, what do you think about if I. If I do the. If I close the curtains halfway?

[Monet X Change]

Hold on. Why would you close it halfway? Oh, wow. So much brighter. Just have it peeking through.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Is it less dark and.

[Monet X Change]

Oki.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Kooky.

[Monet X Change]

Now it is way brighter, right, Jacob?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

A little bit.

[Jacob]

I also think that for this, the overhead lights in the room behind them are also off for the.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, are they?

[Monet X Change]

Maybe that's why. Yes.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Do you like it with the overhead light on?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, I think you need the overhead light on before it was so dark. But you know what? It matches your spirit.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Don't, Monet. We just had a breakthrough.

[Monet X Change]

This is too lit.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I feel like I'm a Walgreens.

[Monet X Change]

Might have Edwards. I looked the fuck up.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So now if I move it back.

[Monet X Change]

I mean, I think that's better.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

This part has to be great for the listeners who are just listening.

[Monet X Change]

I know that was not great for them, but.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Anyway, that being said, what I was trying to get at was. And thank you for your acknowledgement, Monae. And if you need me to acknowledge anything in the last few minutes we have. I would love to acknowledge that, but think on it. What I. That was some of my best acting I've ever done. And I think it's because I was surrounded by such good actors.

[Monet X Change]

It pushed you to be a better actor.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like, being with good actors will make you a better actor in the scene. And I think being with bad actors will make you a worse actor. I really, really believe that.

[Monet X Change]

Well. Well, because you. Were you with Steven Spinella?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Steven Spinella? Randy Harrison.

[Monet X Change]

Randy Harrison. How is Randy Harrison?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Frankie Faradani. Oh, God, I can't remember what names.

[Monet X Change]

It's gonna.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

They're gonna. Danny Bstock. Ben Ishmael. Bethany Frankel. Bethany Frankel. I can't remember Bethany's last name.

[Monet X Change]

Frankel. Well, how would you have told me to audition for Broadway? How is that different?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, I would. So did you do a monologue?

[Monet X Change]

I don't know. I don't think so.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Was it singing? Was it dancing or singing? It was just singing.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And what song did you sing? Come on, man.

[Monet X Change]

I sang 10 minutes ago from Cinderella.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

For the Genie.

[Monet X Change]

I didn't know you had to sing. I thought it was to your range. I didn't know you had to sing a song. What I've gathered is you sing a song similar to what the role is.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah. So you. So typically speaking, it is poor form to sing a Song from the show.

[Monet X Change]

Right.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But it's good form to sing a song in the vein.

[Monet X Change]

Right, Right. You don't do that in opera. Opera. You just sing something to show your fa.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So let's say you saw your. What?

[Monet X Change]

Your fuck, Your voice type.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So let's say you're auditioning for Spring Awakening. You could sing a song Rockaby. What? Rock of Ages, Rock of Ages, Jesus Christ Superstar.

[Monet X Change]

Rent.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Rent. Yeah, but you would not sing a song from Spring Awakening.

[Monet X Change]

Right.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Because then they would choose a song for you to sing in the call back.

[Monet X Change]

Right.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

There's also typing out. You've been typed out of a show. It's a very dehumanizing process.

[Monet X Change]

No, it's not.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I got typed out of a couple of shows. It's too bright in here. There we go.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, that's good.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So you. You. You hand them your headshots. Not your resume, just your headshot. You all line up in a row and they just go down and they go, yes, no, no. Yes, yes, no, no. Yes, no. Yes, yes, no, no, no, no.

[Monet X Change]

Because they wanted that perfect look for the show.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It's just how you look. Work, no. Resume, no nothing. Just based on how you look. Look. And if you don't look the part, you will be typed out. You don't get to sing. They don't get to know what you've done. Nothing. This is usually done when there's a lot of people audition. They're like, we're about to get down to nothing.

[Monet X Change]

You know?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I mean.

[Monet X Change]

Right, right, right.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So I got typed out of Ragtime.

[Monet X Change]

Ragtime came back to Broadway. Since you were. Oh, yeah, I remember that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It was regional.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, no. But it wasn't Broadway, though, when I was in school.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But I got typed out of Ragtime, which was. Which really hurt me because I dressed like the period and everything I was wearing. Not like I was in a costume, but I was like. I had on like one of those little hats, you know, those hats that kind of like. Yeah, like a Kango hat.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What kind of hat is a Kango hat?

[Monet X Change]

I don't know. It's like a. It's not a paper boy hat.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Tell us that, Taylor. What kind of hat is the Kango hat? A page boy hat?

[Monet X Change]

No, page boy. When you do audition. When you do audition sides for things, do you. Do you dress up as the role you're auditioning for?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, but you can dress like, in the vein. Like, you would not. Yeah. Paige Wyatt. I would not dress like. I would not come dressed in blue harem pants. And a crop jacket to be the genie. But I might also something I was taught when you go to auditions, wear something that makes you stand out because you are more than likely auditioning with people who look just like you. It's gonna be a bunch of bald headed 30 something year old black guys all probably all gay auditioning. Right.

[Monet X Change]

So I'll just have to look straight.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So what I used to do is I would. I used to wear all black and yellow suspenders to every audition.

[Monet X Change]

I can't.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I just wear all black and yellow suspenders.

[Monet X Change]

They could remember me. No, I'm saying audition sides for acting roles. You're auditioning for a TV thing, then they send you sides. And when you, when you do your your own, your home video, do you dress up as a character?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I have in the past I did that for. I did that for Tales of the City. I like kind of judged up a little bit.

[Monet X Change]

Like if your characters a crackhead are you like dark and give your arcs.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I would do all that. No, no, no. And I would not audition to be a crackhead.

[Monet X Change]

No.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

If based on what the story was.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. Like if you're Holiday Heart and you're playing alfre widow's character, do you dress up as.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We have to go. Should I post my Tales of City audition to the Patreon?

[Monet X Change]

I would love that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]
