Monet X Change
Is that a line from the movie or did Alaska just improv?
Bob the Drag Queen
It's from the movie. In the movie she goes, in the movie she says, you wouldn't be able to do these horrible things to Me if I wasn't in this wheelchair. That's Joan Crawford's line. And then Bette Davis goes, but you are, Blanche. You are in that wheelchair.

Bob the Drag Queen
We're getting off track. What I'm saying is, you know, I've seen your show and it doesn't seem like a big, big theater show. It seems like a more. A show that'd be more appropriate for an intimate space.
Monet X Change
Yes. So we're not like. No venue we're doing is bigger than like 500 seats. No, that's not true. We're doing the Will where it's like a thousand seats, but most of them are relatively small.

Ad-Lib / Announcer

Bob the Drag Queen
Everything I'm wearing is. Everything I'm wearing is black.
Monet X Change
Would you wear that same outfit to wear a red carpet?
Bob the Drag Queen
Even the shoes? I wouldn't wear this to a red carpet. That's a red carpet. Wait, what's your controversial opinion about Wicked?
Monet X Change
That it was amazing. I was just being silly. The movie is still fucking good. It's so good. I really enjoyed it. And, you know, I've never seen the musical before, so as soon as I left, I had to go read the synopsis of what happens in part two, which I was gagged. Some people online were like, I can't wait for part two. Which I guess maybe they want to watch with the movie. I'm like, you can just go online and read it.
Bob the Drag Queen
That was me with Passion of the Christ. I just didn't want to know how it ended. I heard the book is really good. It's like a bestseller. I heard the book was, like, given,
Jacob

Bob the Drag Queen
Is it the Pantages, Bob? Should we go see together or is that the Amason? I'm leaving town tomorrow.
Jacob
I forget because Hamilton is also in town.
Bob the Drag Queen
Hamilton will be the. Hamilton seems like a Pantages show and Wicked seems like an Amason show.
Jacob
No, Wicked, that's a Pantages.
Monet X Change
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Hamilton's at the Amazon. Cuz Hamilton was just at the Pantages recently. Like Hamilton's back, back, back, back again.
Monet X Change
I guess so.
Jacob
I. I saw somebody posting on Instagram. Maybe I could be wrong. Let me look.
Bob the Drag Queen
Also, if you want to, if you are interested in hearing my thoughts, I actually do hold space for the lyrics of Defying Gravity over on my YouTube page. And you can go check out that video right now on my YouTube. I genuinely do hold space for the lyrics of Defying Gravity.
Monet X Change
Yeah, I thought the movie was so good. Cynthia Erivo did such a stellar job. Obviously. Fucking Ariana Grande did a stellar job. I just think it's just so well done. It makes me want to. I really sat to go see the musical. Like when I see stuff like that, I'm like, ugh, I wish I saw the og. The OGB as well, which apparently can go to the New York Public Library. Ogb, Original Broadway. Sorry.
Bob the Drag Queen
Obc.
Monet X Change
Obc. Which you can go to the. You can go to the New York Public Library and see any, like, Broadway shows or operas.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, theater's not meant to be seen on tape, babe. It's meant to be seen in real life.
Monet X Change
But did you hear the T though? That guy that does those. That talks all Broadway on TikTok. Apparently they're doing telecasts like, have you ever. Have you ever seen at the movie theater when they advertise Met shows they're going to show in theater?
Bob the Drag Queen
No, but I remember PBS used to do shows like that.
Monet X Change
Yeah, so they're doing that for two Broadway shows apparently next year.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, you know, I always say that MTV did a. Did a telecast of Legally Blonde and it was just so great. I mean, the way that we clamored around our televisions in the theater department to watch Legally Blonde. And I used to go to Walmart and buy DVDs of Broadway shows. I remember watching Jekyll and Hyde starring David Hasselhoff on vhs.
Monet X Change
David Hasselhoff can sing.
Bob the Drag Queen
He can sing well enough. I mean, he's not. I don't think that. I mean, he actually does have A pretty impressive musical career.

Monet X Change
Well, wouldn't Jacob be chimed in and talking about something? Yeah. Then I think y' all are doing a thing.

Jacob
Facade.
Bob the Drag Queen
Cause it's all a facade every day, you know?

Monet X Change
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
I could have guessed that. I wish I would have guessed it, because that was literally my first guess.
Monet X Change
I have a secret twin. Kimberly is the one that would take.
Bob the Drag Queen
I want to say that a lot of people agree with me in the comments. And they were all like, I see what Bob means. Like, over what? They were like, I get it. I could read the comments right now. People were like, monet does have the energy. Monat has the energy of someone who would have a twin. So that felt very validating. Thank you all for chiming in. Let me get to some of these. Some of these.
Monet X Change
Let me get a look. Sit your ass out of shit. You squawk like a trumpet. Like a bird off one of these.
Bob the Drag Queen
Someone. Okay, here's some. Let me read some of the comments.
Monet X Change
Jacob is so stupid. He brought up a picture of Trinity the duck.
Bob the Drag Queen
Someone said, I get it. 100% agree for some reason. I understand. This is completely. I understand this completely. When Bob said it. Well, yes, actually, I'm picking up what you're putting down, Bob. She's a twinner. Monet. The type to lie about having a twin and keep on going till the bitter end. I know someone that actually did that. We didn't know until Facebook in 2010. She had an identical twin sister. I see it. Yeah.
Monet X Change
Dinner with her twin sister. What?
Bob the Drag Queen
No, it says she had an identical twin sister. 1,000% agree, Bob. Facts. Yeah, I see it. So a lot of people are like, that tracks exactly. Big Pisces energy. So a lot of people. And that's just from. That's not even on the TikTok. That's just from Instagram. You do have the energy of someone who would have a twin and then just not say anything and be like, oh, yeah. So thank you for validating me, our listeners, our lovely, lovely cousins and siblings and aunties and uncles and stepdads.
Monet X Change
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
You know, whenever I see people online, we have a tier called stepdad. And, like, auntie, cool aunt. And I really love that most of the women I see are like, I'm a stepdad. The women are always like, I'm a stepdad.
Monet X Change
Every one faggot of you. Like, I'm a cool aunt. I'm a cool aunt.
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't hear a cool aunt very often, but I hear a lot of people go, I'm a stepdad or I'm a sibling. The cousins be quiet. But I don't think y' all should. I want you to tell me if you're a cousin.
Monet X Change

This week, I'm getting. I'm doing my foot journey. I'm getting my ffs. My foot feminization surgery.
Bob the Drag Queen
I hate you.
Monet X Change
It's my ffs. And I'm going back to Florida. And it's a full circle moment, because the last time I was in surgery in Florida, which the episode of Monat Talks came out where I talk about everything I do in my body, which people are really gagging at, because I'm just being very honest about it. And I'm gonna post it on Patreon. The video that you and I that you took on my laptop when I was recovering from surgery, I was watching it.
Bob the Drag Queen
I have not seen this in a long time. I've never seen it, actually. I was there, but I've never actually seen the video.
Monet X Change
You never seen the video?
Bob the Drag Queen
I saw it when you did it in real life, but I never watched the video, though.
Monet X Change
Y', all, if you're not on our Patreon, get on our Patreon. So I did an episode of Monet Talks. I talked about everything I did in my body, which all the surgeries I've had. If I had a bbl, if I didn't have bbl, all that stuff. Anyway, there's a surgery. I went for in Florida, during the pandemic, Bob came with me. Bob nursed me back to help, help, help. Cleaning up my bloody gauze, washing my bloody things. And then so the night we came back from surgery, Bob was like, monet, we should record this. I was like, nah, I don't wanna. He's like, monet, you're gonna want this for the future. Just trust me and listen. He like, monet, no one has to see it if you don't want anyone to see. No one ever has to see this. I was like, fine. We recorded a video of me on the couch, and Bob is sitting there with me. And it's a very cute video. So I'm gonna post it on our Patreon.
Bob the Drag Queen
That sounds exciting. I can't wait to watch it. I'm sure you were nutty as Squirrel Turd girl.
Monet X Change
Nutty.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. That was definitely a wild week.
Monet X Change
Because it was also when we were down there, too. We're Here, y' all find out if y' all either won the Emmy or nominated. So we were watching it while we were in Florida. Cause it was all social distancing. So, like, you got on, like a zoom chat with everyone from We're Here, all the producers and directors and shit. And it was just a wild time to be going into a surgery.
Bob the Drag Queen
It was a wild. That was when we were nominated for Best unstructured Reality Program, and we lost to Cheer.
Monet X Change
Cheer.
Bob the Drag Queen
And then we were never nominated in that category again, which is kind of crazy, because Untucked won the next year. And I was like, no, Shade, but We're Here is a better show than Untucked. Like, the idea that Untucked is better than We're Here is That's the most. I'm like, do awards matter? Do awards matter? You know what I mean?
Monet X Change
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Because Untucked is just a better show. I've never seen Cheer. There's a chance that Cheer might be a better show than Untucked. I mean, then We're Here. That's a possibility. But Untucked is not a better show than We're Here by any stretch of the imagination. But it is what it is, my boy.
Monet X Change
And listen, we've all been on. You've been on both of them.
Bob the Drag Queen
I've been on Untucked, and I've been on We're Here. Yeah.
Monet X Change
The first day I went to the Emmys, Joe Gerbino took me as his date. And it was the year because Whatcher Packin got nominated for an Emmy. So I went with Joe, and it was After All Stars 7 and Bitch, the drinks and the food. Cause the thing happens at the Emmys. That was the year that y' all won and you wore.
Bob the Drag Queen
And I took.
Monet X Change
I took that TikTok of you. And everyone was like, it's Bob City. And I was like, bob's sitting down and saying yes. Are you towering over everyone?
Bob the Drag Queen
I was not sitting. First of all, Monet told everyone that I was sleeping and sitting and I was standing and wide awake.
Monet X Change
Bob, Bob, look at the footage. Look at the footage, people. Look at the footage. You look like you were sitting and sleeping.
Bob the Drag Queen
I was standing and I was completely awake getting ready to go present on stage. And Monet told everyone that I was sleeping and sitting, which is insane because I was literally. The people next to me's heads were at my, like, bosom. I'm like, how would you guys think I'm sitting in a booster seat. That doesn't make any sense. How long do you think my torso is? I have a normal sized torso, very proportioned torso.
Monet X Change
Did you go, you know who has a long ass torso?
Bob the Drag Queen
Who?
Monet X Change
Andy. He wore one of my shirts yesterday and the shirt fits me like a normal shirt. Bitch. When I tell you it was a belly shirt on him, I was like, what is wrong with. Why is your torso so long?
Bob the Drag Queen
Violet has a long torso too.
Monet X Change
Who?
Bob the Drag Queen
Violet Chachka has a long torso.
Monet X Change
She does. She does. She also. Violet also loves a low rise. Violet is so early 2000s, she's like, bitch has a fucking gumby torso. She's wearing low rise jeans. So the jeans. So her jeans stop at like the base of her penis. So I'm like, what? Yes. You ever seen Violet out? Violet's jeans be at the. I've never seen her pubes.
Bob the Drag Queen
I've never seen her pubes out.
Monet X Change
Okay, well then, Vijay, look at. Violet's pubes are always on her outfit because she wears low rise jeans.
Bob the Drag Queen
She would have wear goofah. Her goofah.
Monet X Change
Did you go to that Emmys? So, so, so the ceremony that happens on TV or whatever you see, Then afterwards, like the after party, like the drinks and the celebration and dancing, the music, the food there be mad. Did you go to that that year?
Bob the Drag Queen
I think I did, but I also might not have. Cause I was in drag. And you know, I don't like to party in drag. Be in these streets socializing in drag because I'm not going to be in a good mood. And then someone's gonna be like, bob's mean. They already think I'm mean.
Monet X Change
Anyway, so the drinks be Strong. They be good. Everything is free. The food. Y' all know me. I'm a food girl. I'm the type of bitch. I made joke. We were standing at every. Every. Every station. I was like, I want the empanadas. I want the rotisserie chicken. I want the mini sliders. I want the chicken sliders. I want the egg rolls. I want everything at a. At. At a free event. That's my favorite part of a wedding, the hors d'. Oeuvres. The hors d' oeuvres part at the cocktail hour is my favorite part of any wedding, especially if they have pigs in a blanket or quiche.
Bob the Drag Queen
You know, I don't normally eat deviled eggs, but my old roommate Zach no Towers, makes wasabi deviled eggs.
Monet X Change
Ooh, that sounds.
Bob the Drag Queen
Tell you they are amazing. Like, Zach, drop the recipe. These wasabi deviled eggs are delicious.
Jacob
He texted to us. We have it.
Bob the Drag Queen
I saw this thing online where you can take.
Monet X Change
You heard Jacob?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, I heard him. Yeah. And he probably texted, like, years ago. I don't even have a phone anymore. When. And I didn't ask for it, so he didn't text it to me because I don't. I wouldn't. I would never make these at deviled eggs. I would just wait till he made them again.
Monet X Change
Wait, wait, wait.
Bob the Drag Queen
No. Jacob tried to make them one time. I remember. I remember Jacob. Jacob made them one time, right?
Jacob
Yeah, exactly.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, yeah.
Monet X Change
Is the yellow part the wasabi? That's a lot of wasabi.
Bob the Drag Queen
It's not money. It's wasabi flavored. They don't just take. They don't take. Wait, let me. They don't take the yolk out and just fill it with wasabi.
Monet X Change
I was about to say that's a lot.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, man. You flavor the yolk with wasabi.
Jacob
Yeah. You mix it into the yellow part.
Monet X Change
Can you drop. Can you send me the recipe? I want to make it too.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, Jacob, make it. Whoa, whoa, whoa. You don't trust Jake with cooking?
Monet X Change
I don't trust. I don't be trusting white people food.
Bob the Drag Queen
You want a recipe from a white person that another white person gave them, and you're like, I don't trust white people food.
Monet X Change
Yeah, I'll make it myself. Also, Jacob doesn't cook. Jacob's famously say he doesn't cook.
Bob the Drag Queen
Jacob makes great wasabi deviled eggs.
Monet X Change
We talk about. Jacob says that if Jacob has made it very clean, he does not like to cook.
Bob the Drag Queen
You don't eat any food from white people.
Monet X Change
No, I don't think I Ever have.
Bob the Drag Queen
But that's not true. No.
Monet X Change
Once I was shocked. Cause, you know Andy's Boston down right from the fucking Mounts of Caucus in Boston. And one of our earlier days, Andy, like, made me dinner, and I was like, oh, my God. I was, like, nervous. I was. He prepared the table. I was sweating. I'm like, this is about to be so fucking nasty. It was so good. He, like, seasoned the meats really well. It was a really. I was surprised how good the meal was. It was.
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, there is a joke that white people can't cook, but there's a lot of white people that can cook. Like, white people can cook.
Monet X Change
Yeah, yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Like, I get the bits. Like, white people can't cook. But there's, like, a lot of white people who can cook. But I get the. But it is fun to be. Like, white people can't cook, but in truth, white people are perfectly fine cooks.
Monet X Change
So I want to talk about something, and please tell me if you're okay with putting this on the screen. So you went on your cruise this week and you posted this picture.
Bob the Drag Queen
You look good. You look hot.
Monet X Change
Why?
Bob the Drag Queen
You look really hot. Something about the way you said it, I felt like a read. But. But I literally commented.
Monet X Change
I said, okay, bitch, exclamation, exclamation, exclamation. You looked hot.
Bob the Drag Queen
You call me a bitch? That's crazy. No, that was the. Well, it was for the white party, but I didn't have any white because I never dressed for the themes. I never packed for the themes.
Monet X Change
All black to the white.
Bob the Drag Queen
I was wearing one black item.
Monet X Change
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
The jeans were gray, so that's not all black. You said all black. If I show up wearing blue jeans and a black shirt, you can't go. You're wearing all black.
Monet X Change
But gray. First of all, they're dark gray jeans. So they're pretty.
Bob the Drag Queen
They're pretty standard gray. They're not, like, dark. They're not charcoal. They're pretty light gray, actually.
Monet X Change
Well, y' all be the judge. I'll see the picture. If Bob showed up like this, would you not say Bob was all black? At the white party, Bob was wearing this.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, I wasn't wearing all black, but I was wearing black because I don't. I didn't have. I don't. I don't wear a lot of white clothes. I mean, how often have you seen me wear white clothes? Like in drag? Out of drag?
Monet X Change
I don't really.
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't really own any white clothes.
Monet X Change
You had that white T shirt dress you like to wear. You Wore to the VMAs that time.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, I have that. Yeah, But I usually wear it. But it's, I'm wearing like color on top of it. Like I rarely. I just wore it on halfway midnight. But I don't wear a lot of. Okay, mom, I'd holla. But I don't wear a lot of white. Because also when you have very dark skin, your skin just rubs off on stuff and you end up with like. Yeah, like I was trying to tell this guy named Prince, one of the dancers from the Madonna tour who's very dark skinned. And I was like, when you, when you are washing yourself at the end of the night or in the beginning of the day or whenever you wash yourself, if you're a dark skinned person, the towel gets dark. Like the towel starts turning brown. And I kept telling Prince, I was like, that's not dirt. That's not always dirt. That is, that is your skin. And then we looked at this light skinned guy named Donnie and I was like, donnie, when you wash yourself, how often do you get like a bunch of dirt? He goes, no, never, not really. And I was like, that's your skin, baby. That's not, you're not filthy. You're not just always covered in filth. That's you, that's your skin. That's your skin coming off.
Monet X Change
I don't think I have that experience though.
Bob the Drag Queen
You know how. Because you're not that dark. You're not dark enough or you're not scrubbing hard enough? One or two, I don't know. But when I shower, like if I take a towel right now and just rub just this part of my arm, like just this part of my arm with soap and water, the towel will be dark in that spot because I'm rubbing, I'm knocking off my skin.
Monet X Change
Is that how melanin works? You just taking off your, your, your epidermis?
Bob the Drag Queen
That has, well, that's how, that's how skin works. It's not melanin working that way. Your skin works that way. So everyone's, everyone's knocking off their skin when they shower. Just that when you are lighter, it doesn't look as dark on the towel. So if a white person is rubbing their skin, it won't look the same way as if a very dark person rubs their skin. It's the same reason why dark skinned people have dark earwax. I remember telling someone, like, my earwax is the color of my skin and they cannot believe that it's because the earwax is rolled around in My skin,
Monet X Change
well, my ear wax, mine is like yellow or like whatever, like the wax color is.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, you're a little lighter skin. You're not light skinned, but you're lighter than I am. And my skin, my earwax is very dark. And dark people have dark earwax.
Monet X Change
Really?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. I don't know how we got on this. How do we end up talking about that?
Monet X Change
I was talking about the cruise. I was talking about Alpha for the cruise. And I was gonna ask, how was your cruise?
Bob the Drag Queen
It was lovely. It was. I mean, these names might not mean a lot to you all, but it was me, Marvin, Taylor. Yeah. Rob, Bryant and Zay. We were all on the cruise together. We went to the Bahamas. We went to the Dominican Republic and one other place. I can't remember the name of the place. For some reason, it's escaping me in this moment.
Monet X Change
Apparently the Dominican Republic has good diving.
Bob the Drag Queen
Diving. Oh, nice. And so, yeah, we went there. I had a show on Thanksgiving. I didn't celebrate Thanksgiving this year. I spent it with my friends and did a little show. Someone did walk out on my show and complain, which I thought was, honestly, I kind of love because I make fun of religion.
Monet X Change
I was about to say, I was literally gonna guess, was it cause of the religious part?
Bob the Drag Queen
Is it because you made fun? I did make fun of religion. And he didn't like that much. So he went out and was like, I don't like all that religion. It's too political.
Monet X Change
He said this to what, an usher or something? Then they told you afterwards?
Bob the Drag Queen
He was just kind of grumbling it and someone heard it.
Monet X Change
Got it.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, yeah.
Monet X Change
Every time you go on a cruise. So I was supposed to go to schools with Bob. Bob asked on his tour. But because Andy was on touring with Bob, we, like, planned to go away for Thanksgiving. We went to Cabo. So I didn't get to go. And every time. Every time. Bob. Bob. You doesn't invite me every time. But you, I think you invite me at least twice now. And I've not been able to go. And I never get to because I've never been on a cruise. I want to go on a cruise so bad. And it's like, obviously a gay cruise, right?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. I invited you and Andy. You were both invited.
Monet X Change
Andy.
Bob the Drag Queen
Andy.
Monet X Change
Somebody invited him.
Bob the Drag Queen
I invited Andy through you. And then you told me you all weren't gonna do. And then I invited Andy. You didn't tell me.
Monet X Change
No, no, no. You asked me if I wanted to go and I said no, Andy and I may plan.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, I Said, you want to go? And he said, andy. And I said, andy can come. And he said, no, Andy would be mad if I canceled the plans. And I said, then I told. And I said, andy, you can come. Then he goes, we have plans. So you. You both have the same story.
Monet X Change
Yeah. Well, let's take a break. I want to hear more about this cruise.
Bob the Drag Queen
What is it you. What is it about cruises that intrigues you?
Monet X Change
Just being like, you get to go to all these different places. The all you can eat food. This sounds fierce. And yeah, I just never had the experience. I've never had the experience of being on a cruise.
Bob the Drag Queen
One of the cruises is going to St. Lucia next year.
Monet X Change
One of the gay ones.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah.
Monet X Change
Work, you know. And also, like, I've also never been booked to do a cruise. Cruises, cruise, cruises. We do not want this fucking Jamaican.
Bob the Drag Queen
It's not true. You were booked to do a cruise, but the cruise got canceled.
Monet X Change
Oh, yeah, the ke$1. That's true. I was supposed to do that one. I was supposed to do that.
Bob the Drag Queen
I know your career better than you. That's crazy. We've had this happen like three times. But yes, you were booked to do the Kesha cruise. Yeah, the animal ke$, the wacky animal ride or whatever it's called. And that was a fun cruise. That was my first, like, non explicitly gay cruise. It was queer friendly, but it was not like a gay cruise.
Monet X Change
And is this the kind of crew they have like that big, like, I've seen, like. I think. No, I think that's. That's specifically the Atlantis one. Like with the big.
Bob the Drag Queen
This is. It was Atlantis. I did Atlantis.
Monet X Change
Is it like the one that has a big circuit party on it?
Bob the Drag Queen
There's a party every night.
Monet X Change
Like every.
Bob the Drag Queen
Every night. Like literally every single night. Except with the last night. You're in the middle of the ocean dancing with the. And it's like a bunch of people around you all just literally, Literally every night.
Monet X Change
Did you go to any of these parties?
Bob the Drag Queen
I go and dance every once in a while. I went to the white party. That's when I was wearing all black.
Monet X Change
Right.
Bob the Drag Queen
But my favorite is the disco T dance, which is where they do a disco party on the second to last on the last day because the sailing
Monet X Change
off tea dance tips. That sounds great. And are people tickety turn doing all the things?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, I mean, there are people who are turned for sure, but not everyone. It's not like everyone's not like zombies, but at the disco T dance, the people are less turned because it's during the day, like, the sun is out while you're dancing, and people are trying to. And also, it's usually, like, the night before you leave, so they don't do a big, big party. There's a smaller party downstairs. And people are usually packing so they can get off. Cause you have to wake up pretty early and get off the boat. And, baby, when you're on these boats, the people who run the boats, the hospitality ends abruptly, baby, before they be like, oh, my God, Mr. Burton, it's so great to have you. Have me call you Kevin. Wonderful. And what are your pronouns? Ugh. Amazing. If there's anything you need. And then, baby, when it's 9 o', clock, they'd be like, nigga, go,
Monet X Change
have you. I watched. I remember. I don't know if it was a documentary or a YouTube video, whatever it was about maritime law. And I got really fascinated with, like, maritime law, like, how that operates. Because when you're on a cruise and, like, open waters, you operate on maritime law.
Bob the Drag Queen
You can murder people.
Monet X Change
Yeah. Literally. So this whole thing about that.
Jacob
I did it.
Bob the Drag Queen
I did it this last week, and no one can do anything about it.
Monet X Change
About how these people bring their spouses on these cruises and they murder them, they push them overboard. Because the thing operates on maritime law and it can't be persecuted under.
Bob the Drag Queen
Again, I want to be very clear.
Jacob
Why do you think Bob invited you?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. Trying to. And you never take the. You never take the bait. I want to be clear, though, y'. All, if you're listening to this for legal advice, you cannot murder people at sea.
Monet X Change
Yeah. No, no, no, no.
Bob the Drag Queen
You will be persecuted. You will get put in jail. There are cameras on every. You cannot even throw a Snickers bar over the edge of the ship without them knowing you did it.
Monet X Change
Yeah. So. But I guess also technology has changed and updated because of things like this. But they're like. I was watching the documentary about how they have so many cases of people. And again, this wasn't recent about people, like, murdering people on these things. And no one knew who did it.
Ad-Lib / Announcer
Who.
Monet X Change
It's like, a whole thing. I was like, that's fucking crazy. So that also, like, scared me from, like, going on a cruise. But I'm like, who's gonna. Who's gonna kill me? I'm not trying to kill me.
Bob the Drag Queen
No one can hear your scream out here.
Monet X Change
Oh, my God. That trend. If we. I should have did that to you before you saw it.
Bob the Drag Queen
I would have been like. I wouldn't. I would be like, girl. Anyway. Like, I Wouldn't. If you. If we went to the woods and you're like, no one hears scream. I was like, okay, you gonna be screaming, get cute. Because I always. I always carried a burner, honey.
Monet X Change
A burner phone.
Bob the Drag Queen
Another burner, honey.
Monet X Change
What's the burner?
Bob the Drag Queen
Low key, Keep a horn on me that kamasi. Honey, you like.
Monet X Change
You keep Tina burning your back pocket or something.
Bob the Drag Queen
Low key, Keep a horn on me that kamasi.
Monet X Change
Yeah. So that's also cruising speaks to me. I just never done one. Maybe I'll do one. I just.
Bob the Drag Queen
I. I don't hook up on the cruise a lot. If.
Monet X Change
If I hooked up on a cruise.
Bob the Drag Queen
Would you hook up on the cruise a lot? Do you think you'd be.
Monet X Change
I mean, a lot of. It's a lot, but I. Absolutely. Cruising is the I. That's how I first got introduced to sexuality. Like, my queerness was like cruising. Cruising was a big part of my, you know, growing up in New York City.
Bob the Drag Queen
We've heard the stories.
Monet X Change
We are very uncomfortable about a young. But even. Not even like that age. But like, I'm talking about, like, after college, after I was of age, like after 18. Like, cruising. Cruising culture was really big in. Well for me when I was 18 and when I was of age for me. But I've never cruised. Well, for those who don't know people, some people are like, what's cruising? Cruising is when, like, two guys or when you're out in a public space or a sex party, whatever, and cruising, you're like, you're cruising, looking for someone else to hook up with. And then sometimes you have to look for a sleight of hand and a sleight of a head nod or body. What's the word? Not body activity. Body language.
Jacob
Body language.
Monet X Change
Body language.
Bob the Drag Queen
Body language.
Monet X Change
You have to look at body language or body cues to see if the other person's into it. And you guys will hook up in the wild or go back to their space. I would. I. I used to cruise a lot on the subways in New York City.
Bob the Drag Queen
What did Wicked get right that the Little Mermaid got wrong?
Monet X Change
Segue.
Bob the Drag Queen
We just did body language.
Monet X Change
Huh.
Bob the Drag Queen
Which is from Little Mermaid. I'm just wondering what did.
Jacob
I mean, right off the bat, they cast. But with the exception of Ariel, who's Halle, none of the other people in the Wicked movie were. Sorry. None of the other people in the Little Mermaid Live action were singers.
Monet X Change
I mean, besides Ariana Grande, Cynthia Rio, who else? The singers is Jeff Globel is. You know, he's not a singer. Michelle Yo. Is not a singer.
Bob the Drag Queen
But the main Jonathan Bailey is.
Monet X Change
What?
Bob the Drag Queen
Jonathan Bailey. Oh, so drag. Bowen. Yang.
Monet X Change
Bowen.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yang.
Monet X Change
He's not a singer. Whoa, whoa.
Bob the Drag Queen
Shots fired.
Monet X Change
Bowen.
Bob the Drag Queen
You heard that? Straight from. Straight from the. The. The. The sponge's mouth, honey. Straight from the sponge's mouth.
Monet X Change
Yeah. So cruising is fierce. I enjoy cruising. I don't cruise much anymore because I'm not. I don't know. I'm just. A lot of that has stopped me since. Ever since getting on tv. I just feel a little uncomfortable doing it now because I'm like, you went
Bob the Drag Queen
to the bath house one time after
Monet X Change
tv one time, and I didn't enjoy it.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, you said you had fun. That's true.
Monet X Change
Which one?
Bob the Drag Queen
In Edmonton? No, down in Puerto Rico.
Monet X Change
Oh,
Bob the Drag Queen
Puerto Vallarta.
Monet X Change
That.
Ad-Lib / Announcer
What?
Monet X Change
It was a little different. It was a little different because it was in a foreign country, so it felt different.
Bob the Drag Queen
Didn't you have fun, though?
Monet X Change
You had a good time?
Bob the Drag Queen
I've never cruised. In fact, I have only actually hooked up with one person that I met out in the world.
Monet X Change
Really?
Bob the Drag Queen
One person?
Monet X Change
And y' all didn't cruise? How do y'. All. How did you know?
Bob the Drag Queen
We were at the Ritz, and he looked at me. I looked at him. No, two. The guy in the. In the. In the kente cloth vest who played Lana Del Rey, and the ballet dancer that I used to.
Monet X Change
That's cruising, though.
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, is it cruising? I mean, it's. Yeah, it's not. It's not like park cruising or bathroom cruising or subway cruising. It's like when you're at the club, that's like, flirting. I feel like when you're at the club, like, we weren't looking for taps or anything. We were just like, hey, you're cute. We're on the dance floor. Suede. Let's make out. Did you ever. I never. You never met that dance? I wasn't really hanging out with you when I was. We weren't dating, but we were just hooking up and spending a lot of time together, me and the dancer. The ballet dancer.
Monet X Change
Was it?
Jacob
Who the.
Monet X Change
Is that the ones come to your shows? All the ones come to your shows all the time?
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, my God. I wish. Oh, are you kidding me? He was so. He's so hot. He's still so hot. No, we never did anything. His name was. I mean, I don't know if his name was. He just. I can get a picture of him, but I used to be obsessed with this guy. Like, oh, my God. I was upset. It was kind of crazy. I was like, what is going on? Very obsessed with him.
Monet X Change
Well. Well, what do you think your aversion to cruising is now? Like, do you feel uncomfortable doing it?
Bob the Drag Queen
I would not cruise. No cruising. I wouldn't. You would not catch me in these streets cruising.
Monet X Change
You have a why reason.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, I've never, like. I've never felt comfortable doing it. I think that maybe I don't have the confidence that it takes to. To cruise. I feel. I just sent you a picture of the guy. I. I just don't have the confidence it takes to be out in the world, like, shooting my shot. Shooting my shot with someone, but this person.
Monet X Change
A ballet dancer.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. Body, tall, down. No, no.
Monet X Change
See, ballet dancers are normally tall, but regular. No, that's not true.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, he's like, five, seven.
Jacob
No, ballet dancers are pretty short.
Monet X Change
Are they?
Bob the Drag Queen
Typically.
Jacob
I think, generally speaking, because the woman needs a ballad dancer. Woman. You need to be equal height as a man. On your point. And you're trying to get everyone the same height. So I think generally, like, in the 5, 6 to 5, 8.
Bob the Drag Queen
And that's why Brooklyn Heights failed as a ballet dancer.
Monet X Change
I'm just kidding.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm kidding.
Monet X Change
You know what came on my thing the other day?
Bob the Drag Queen
That clip of Kylie who came on your thing?
Monet X Change
She.
Bob the Drag Queen
Jesus Christ. Brooklyn.
Monet X Change
It was great.
Bob the Drag Queen
Brooklyn came on your thing?
Monet X Change
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
You ever someone come on your thing before? Like your penis?
Monet X Change
No. No.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay, you were saying?
Monet X Change
I'm also, like. I'm also. I reject sperm. That's not, like, from the tap in
Bob the Drag Queen
you, am I right? Wait, what did you suppose?
Monet X Change
That's not from the tap.
Bob the Drag Queen
It is from the tap. What did someone bring out of their pocket
Monet X Change
anyway? That's a whole nother conversation.
Bob the Drag Queen
If it's not in you, it's not on you. Am I right, ladies? Ladies?
Monet X Change
That clip of Kylie, Sonique Love, Brooke Lynn Hytes, and somebody else at Roscoe's. And she is like, I don't know what RuPaul was. I don't know what fracking is, but I'm like, let RuPaul do it. If the Republicans all get away doing it, he should do it, too. And then she goes on and on. She goes, what, am I in trouble?
Bob the Drag Queen
Everybody's just like, can you describe fracking?
Monet X Change
Fracking is when you take water. You take pressurized water and you punch it into the ground and search for oil to bring oil up to the surface.
Ad-Lib / Announcer
Yeah.
Monet X Change
Because water is heavy, is denser than oil.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. And the oil.
Monet X Change
Have you heard of aerated water? Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
You can't swim in it. You would never. You would never end up in aerated water. There is no situation you would ever end up in a water.
Monet X Change
You never know.
Bob the Drag Queen
First of all, aerated water is usually sewage because it's part of the cleaning process. If there was any reason why you were near aerated water, you would not feel the urge to jump into it. And there's also guardrails so you can't get near it.
Monet X Change
But what if I was a superhero? Having a super or having a fight. And then we fly, fly, fly. We get to a place like all those aerated places and we burst through a thing and we're fighting and the villain pushes me into the water.
Bob the Drag Queen
Then what if you're a superhero and you can't climb out of aerated water? You are doomed from the beginning.
Monet X Change
You don't know what my powers are.
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, if you're a superhero who could be stopped by aerated water, I would not say that you are someone who should be getting in fights. Maybe you should use your powers to do something else. But I don't think you're meant for fighting, Mama. If aerated water is going to bring you down, what are you going to do when someone throws a tidal wave at you?
Monet X Change
Well, a tidal wave is different than air rated, babe.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm just saying, if you can't handle anything, a little thing of aerated water, what are you gonna do when someone hits you with lightning? What are you gonna do when someone shoots you with laser beams? What are you gonna do when someone punches you in the chest with their super strength? What are you gonna do then?
Monet X Change
Figure it out. But those things. I'm impervious to everything except aerated water.
Bob the Drag Queen
Your power. Well, you're impervious to everything but aerated water.
Monet X Change
Yes.
Bob the Drag Queen
What are your powers?
Monet X Change
We can't get into powers, but I will say this. Can I tell you a toxic. This is. I realize. This is so stupid, so mature. This is y'.
Bob the Drag Queen
All.
Monet X Change
I know. This is so stupid. I gen. No, we can't. We cannot do the superpower generator. We go through this every.
Bob the Drag Queen
It's just one power, Jacob. It's just one power. Do the one power. We're gonna find out what Monet's power is. Bring it back up, Jacob. It's literally one power. Bring it back. So just to be clear, your power, Monet, is nail manipulation. The power to manipulate your nails, whether on oneself, others, or anywhere. So, yeah, you're done. Don't fight. You should not be fighting.
Monet X Change
So basically, I can what, manipulate bones? Cause nails are just bo on the
Bob the Drag Queen
outside nails are not bones.
Monet X Change
Yes, they are.
Bob the Drag Queen
Nails are not bones. Nails are part of your pituitary system and bones are skeletal.
Monet X Change
Oh, no. Nails are not bones.
Bob the Drag Queen
I told you. I just told you that nails are not. Cuz bones don't continue growing. Like they reach a point and they start deteriorating. Nails and hair. Nails and hair are, are, are, are.
Monet X Change
And also. And also hips and heels.
Bob the Drag Queen
Anyway, nails and hair are keratin.
Monet X Change
Yeah, the fucking keratin.
Bob the Drag Queen
Which is why when you, when your body deteriorates, your, your nails and your hair don't.
Monet X Change
Yeah, well, no. Yeah. So I know this is so irrational and I know it is not true, but I just hold onto a modicum of something, right? This is so when I'm in a thunderstorm or near a thunderstorm and lightning's happening, I really be like, I hope it hits me so I can get electric powers.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, Martha Stewart's been hit by lightning twice and she doesn't have any superpowers
Monet X Change
that we know of.
Bob the Drag Queen
That we how she got out of jail, you know? Did you know she was struck by lightning two times?
Monet X Change
How is it. Where the fuck was she at? On some palatial farm that she has.
Bob the Drag Queen
She was washing dishes and her well was struck by lightning and it traveled through her water system and it hit her.
Monet X Change
That's crazy.
Bob the Drag Queen
And she baked a fleet of pies on Thanksgiving.
Monet X Change
35 pies.
Bob the Drag Queen
She had to be doing them. There's no way she baked them all on the same day. That'd be a shame.
Jacob
I think that's her superpower.
Bob the Drag Queen
Baking baking pies in a single bound.
Monet X Change
Martha's gonna bake 35 pies.
Bob the Drag Queen
Chocolate pecan.
Monet X Change
Okay, let me say which ones sound good. Chocolate pecan. I could do that. Brown butter maple rum. That sounds good. Pumpkin. Fuck out of here. What?
Bob the Drag Queen
What's your problem with pumpkin pie?
Monet X Change
I don't like pumpkin stuff. Cranberry nut crust. Wait. Oh, she made 14 pecan chocolate pies. A plain pecan pie can be into apple crumb. Yes. Pumpkin phyllo. Hell no. Cranberry nut crust.
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't know what is, what is. What is file. I don't know what that is.
Monet X Change
Philo is a kind of dill, right?
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't know.
Monet X Change
Yeah, I watched you. Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
I think that pumpkin pie.
Jacob
Yeah. Philo's a type of dough.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, I think I. I feel like some people be putting on when they say, I don't like pumpkin pie. I just like pumpkin. The thing is, like if you will eat a sweet potato pie, a pumpkin pie are just so Similar. They don't taste the same, but they taste so similar. So if you'll eat a pumpkin, if you'll eat a sweet potato pie, you're like, I would never eat a pumpkin pie. I'm like, you're putting on.
Monet X Change
I don't know if I'll eat a. I don't think I've ever had a sweet potato pie, to be honest.
Bob the Drag Queen
Imagine a pumpkin pie, but sweeter.
Monet X Change
I never had pumpkin pie.
Bob the Drag Queen
So how do you know you don't like it? You never even had it.
Monet X Change
I don't like pumpkin. I don't like pumpkin.
Bob the Drag Queen
It doesn't taste like pumpkins.
Monet X Change
Then why is it called pumpkin? It's a good keyboard pie.
Bob the Drag Queen
So when you say you don't like pumpkin stuff like pumpkin spice latte is not pumpkin flavored. It does not taste like. It's not. It's not flavored with pumpkins. Pumpkin spice is the spices you use when you're flavoring pumpkin.
Monet X Change
I've tasted a pumpkin spice thing, and it tastes like when my mom make the soup with the pumpkin in it, it tastes like pumpkin.
Bob the Drag Queen
But to be clear, it's not pumpkin. The flavoring, you're. No, it does not. It tastes like pumpkin. It tastes like the flavorings you put in pumpkin flavored things.
Monet X Change
No, it tastes like when my mom makes bouillon, she takes pumpkin and you. It is made out of base of pumpkin.
Bob the Drag Queen
But the flavoring is what's making it taste like that. It's not the pumpkin. That's. That's. That's like saying It's. It's the. The spices you're putting in pumpkin flavored things. That is pumpkin spice. Pumpkin spice has no pumpkin in it. There's no. It's not meant to taste like pumpkin. It's meant to be.
Monet X Change
But that is a taste of it, though, babe.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, but it doesn't taste like pumpkin, though. They'd be. They'd be like saying apples tastes like cinnamon. They'd be like saying my. My cinnamon apple thing. Like, when you taste cinnamon again, you're like, oh, this is what apples taste like. No, it is the thing you use to flavor the apples. But cinnamon and apples actually don't taste anything alike.
Monet X Change
No, pumpkin does not pumpkin because it doesn't contain any pumpkin.
Bob the Drag Queen
So when something has apple cinnamon flavor, or if you taste cinnamon and sugar, you're not actually tasting apple. You're tasting the thing they use to flavor the apples when they put it in certain things.
Monet X Change
So when you make a pumpkin pie, what is the mushy stuff?
Bob the Drag Queen
What is the Mushy stuff is pumpkin.
Monet X Change
Right.
Bob the Drag Queen
But the flavor is coming from the spices. So the pumpkin is the texture and the flavor is the spices, which is similar to the flavors in a sweet potato pie. So sweet potato pie is like a pumpkin pie, but it's sweeter because the actual starch itself has sweetness as well. So the reason why some people prefer sweet potato pie over pumpkin pie is because it is much sweeter. Because the starch is sweeter than the starch put into a pumpkin pie. Because the pumpkin pie. Pumpkins don't really. Have you ever tasted like pumpkin before or like pumpkin seeds? You had pumpkin seeds?
Monet X Change
No, I have not. Pumpkin seeds?
Bob the Drag Queen
No. Well, toasted pumpkin seeds don't taste like pumpkin spice stuff. It tastes kind of like. Kind of like sunflower seeds.
Monet X Change
Well, I still do some research on this because I didn't. Now my brain doesn't understand what's happening. I need to we on anything you can do. We just have a pumpkin tasting contest
Bob the Drag Queen
where who can taste pumpkin the best. Bitch, you don't even know what pumpkin tastes like. You think pumpkin tastes like nutmeg?
Monet X Change
No. My mom puts pumpkin in our. She puts pumpkin in our soup.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, I understand that, but I think that she's also flavoring it with other things and that's so.
Monet X Change
I'll ask her. I don't think so, though. I think she's just.
Bob the Drag Queen
She's not putting flavoring in. She's not putting flavoring in the food.
Monet X Change
I mean, like, salt and pepper are like the usual things, but. But she's not using pumpkin spice.
Bob the Drag Queen
Interesting.
Monet X Change
I don't. I don't believe so. She might. I don't think so, though.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, but pumpkin. Pumpkin spice is not actually pumpkin. It's just the. The stuff. But I. I prefer sweet potato pie over pumpkin pie because it's also. The texture is better. It is a more. It's more solid. And pumpkin pie can be a little custardy sometime. For me, personally, I like a custard.
Monet X Change
I like a custard.
Bob the Drag Queen
It's a little custard. I would not call it full on custard. It's a little. It's not like. It's not like key lime pie. It's not like the custard in the middle of the key lime pie. It's more. Or like a lemon meringue or something. It's more. It's like a. Maybe thicker for sure, but not as thick as a sweet potato piece.
Monet X Change
Got it.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah.
Monet X Change
Interesting. I was just in Cabo San Lucas in Los Cabos in Mexico, and Went to this one, the only gay bar there, the Chandelier Club, I think it was. And it was one of the, like, we went two nights. We went Friday night and Saturday night. On both nights, the music was that, like loud pots and pans, like circular, like, no top 40, no. Nothing else, which is fine. But the music was so not enjoyable. We couldn't even have a good time and dance. It was just not.
Bob the Drag Queen
She did some drugs. That's what the music's for.
Monet X Change
I know. And I was not doing any drugs, so it wasn't feeling funny. The people were very nice, though.
Bob the Drag Queen
Why'd you do drugs?
Monet X Change
The drinks were a little watered down. I got two beverages. I got a vodka soda. Bitch might as well have been a glass of water. And I got a margarita the first night and it was just not good. Very watered down.
Bob the Drag Queen
When I used to work at RWBY Tuesday, I remember the. I knew what they were saying, but it just used to irritate me so much and that when people would say things, I'd be like, I really wish you would speak more. Say what you mean instead of saying speaking on hyperbole. Especially when you're complaining to me about your food. You know what I mean? Like, when someone goes.
Monet X Change
You would say that to the customers?
Bob the Drag Queen
No, I would wish that I would be like. I wouldn't actually say, like, they'd be like, this soup is ice cold. And I'd be like, ice cold. I'd be, baby, it's not even room temperature. Not even. Not even room room. If I gave you room temperature soup, that would be crazy. If I gave you ice cold soup, Joe, that would be why it's not ice cold. Or I bring a drink back in. But this tastes like water. It doesn't. If I bought you this and water, you would easily be able to taste which one. Which one wasn't water?
Monet X Change
I'd say my tequila soda was absolutely. It was. It was basically. It was. It was water. It was water. It feel like. It feel like the soda was flat. So it's already like. Tastes like water. And they barely put any tequila. So I feel like I was just drinking a glass of water.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, I understand water down. There's between water down and this tastes like water. This tastes just like. They'd be like, this tastes just like water. And like, for example, when you. When you go to the Taco Bell and you drink your little drink and then you kind of forget about it, you come back to it and you're like, oh, it's watered down because the ice has melted. It is now definitely watered down, but if I went to the faucet and poured some water and it came out, I'd be like, what the fuck?
Monet X Change
I'm gonna go see Wicked again tonight. You wanna come with me?
Bob the Drag Queen
What time?
Monet X Change
Let's see what time of the movie the showings are. Oh, my God. You gotta come with me. I haven't seen you so long. Come hang out with me. I miss you.
Bob the Drag Queen
It depends on what time.
Monet X Change
I miss you. I miss you. To me, Rachel.
Bob the Drag Queen
Show me to me, Rachel, show me to me, please.
Monet X Change
Okay, before. What the hell you got to do that you can't come?
Bob the Drag Queen
I plan on going to the gymnasium.
Monet X Change
Oh, my God.
Bob the Drag Queen
What do you mean, oh, my God?
Monet X Change
Just going to the time. You don't get to hang out with
Bob the Drag Queen
me a lot anymore.
Monet X Change
We. We haven't seen each other in so long.
Bob the Drag Queen
That's by design.
Monet X Change
Yeah, nigga on my side, too.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, I'm glad the plan's working out perfectly. Let's keep the streak up. Let's keep the streak up.
Monet X Change
Do you know that song Cake up by Lil. Lil Debbie?
Bob the Drag Queen
No, but, like, Lil Debbie the Sand Cakes?
Monet X Change
No, she's a rapper. Okay. Should we go see it in prime? Okay. Okay, there's eight. There's a 10. 10 30, 11.
Bob the Drag Queen
Eight what?
Monet X Change
There's a. I can't do the 821 because I'm going to a friend's birthday little gathering.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, so you're. You got stuff to do. Interesting.
Monet X Change
But it's a 10. There's a 1030 or an 11. I'll go to any one of those that you want you like to go to.
Bob the Drag Queen
Wait, 11. Let's 11 will give me time to do stuff.
Monet X Change
Okay. Should I buy tickets for both of us at City Walk? Well, it's gonna be out at City Walk.
Bob the Drag Queen
Is that. Is that universal?
Monet X Change
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean. Okay, I wanna be clear. I think that you and I are, like, famous, but not enough that we couldn't be like, I'm at the movies. That's like that. Like, girl, you really. You really.
Monet X Change
You really.
Bob the Drag Queen
You really. That was wild. That was crazy. Even if this was live even, bitch, we have to beg people to come to our show. Not beg. We have to be like, come, come. Like, that was.
Monet X Change
I'm acting like Ariana and Cynthia were going together.
Bob the Drag Queen
That was gaggy. But he's like, oh, well, do you, like. It could be like, you and I
Monet X Change
could literally be on live and be
Bob the Drag Queen
like, we're going to Mickey's. And honestly, it would probably. It would be fine. It would Be fine.
Monet X Change
Do you like to sit close or far or in the middle?
Bob the Drag Queen
I like to sit dab smack in the middle. So you know, when the upstairs area separates from the downstairs area. I like to sit in the mezzanine and the first row.
Monet X Change
Well, someone looks like they're sitting there
Bob the Drag Queen
and we need three tickets.
Monet X Change
Why three?
Bob the Drag Queen
I have a nephew.
Monet X Change
Oh, camion.
Bob the Drag Queen
Let's see.
Monet X Change
Camion.
Bob the Drag Queen
Let me ask him if he wants to go.
Monet X Change
Yeah, yeah. Because if I buy this again to come, guess who's paying for it? You.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, that's not true, nigga.
Monet X Change
I. I had the keys to the account. I will debit that motherfucker directly back into my account. So now what's good?
Bob the Drag Queen
It's your. And I. And I. And I have it too. I'll just read that.
Monet X Change
We'll.
Bob the Drag Queen
We'll just be spitting back in each other's mouths. Back and forth. Honey. Honey buns.
Monet X Change
Wait, Cam, is Camille seen already?
Bob the Drag Queen
Came here. Ain't going to see no damn Wicked without someone telling him to. Want to see a movie tonight? Question mark, send. He'll be like, yeah. Cameron's always like, sure. Cameron is very like, let's do it.
Monet X Change
Can I say something that's. I don't know. I don't know. This is problematic. People are going to be mad at me for this. I'm gonna say it. So, like, I love this. My favorite seat in a movie theater is like the. The aisle in front, like with the wheelchair accessible ones. So I'll buy the wheelchair accessible seats and obviously if someone needs them, I will, like, get up expeditiously. But no one ever. I've never been experienced when I bought them. If someone wants those seats. But I love getting those seats.
Bob the Drag Queen
Maybe they're, like, afraid to tell you. Maybe. Cause they think that you're also handicapped and they're like, oh, there's already a handicapped person sitting there.
Monet X Change
No, but normally the other ones are empty too.
Bob the Drag Queen
There are. Okay, that's. That's convenient. Like every time. Every time I've ever gone to the movie theater. Every. It's just convenient.
Jacob
Also, you're not. You already bought the seat and they see online where the seats are. So it's not like someone's going to come in and need your seat because they've already looked online and seen that it's taken by somebody.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, maybe they're just assuming, wow, a handicapped person already has the seat.
Monet X Change
No, because when you click it, the disclaimer comes up and it says, you're selected a seat reserved for companions of guests in Wheelchairs. If you're not accompanying a guest in a wheelchair or do not have a disability that requires use of. That requires the use of the seat you will be asked to move to accommodate guests for whom the seat is reserved and cannot guarantee it. So they let you know you can buy does walk in, and they have. They need to use it.
Bob the Drag Queen
But how can they. How are they going to prove that you're. I mean, are these seats only for people in wheelchairs or is it for
Monet X Change
people wheelchair seeds that I cannot buy? Then you have ones like, let's say my friend is in a wheelchair.
Bob the Drag Queen
They can.
Monet X Change
They can sit in that and they can wheel up to the empty spot and I can sit next to them. That's what. That's what these seats are.
Bob the Drag Queen
So there aren't seats for people who have disability that aren't in wheelchairs?
Monet X Change
I don't. I don't. I don't think so. I don't know.
Bob the Drag Queen
Interesting. But also, you can go to the rail without sitting in a handicap seat. Like, if you sit at the. At the front mezzanine seat, you can still have a railing. You don't have to sit next to.
Monet X Change
I don't want the railing. I want nothing in front of me because they're usually on the flat landing.
Bob the Drag Queen
I am going to say that is problematic. Is it?
Jacob
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, it is. I think it is.
Monet X Change
I literally, I'm complying with what they're saying. They're saying, hey, you rejected. If someone needs it, you have to get up. I'm like, absolutely, 1,000%. Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
It's like parking in a handicap spot.
Monet X Change
No, it's not.
Bob the Drag Queen
It's simple. It's not. Not.
Monet X Change
No, there are handicapped seats. These are for someone who is not handicapped.
Bob the Drag Queen
I understand you're complaining to someone next to the person in the handicapped seats, but I'm wondering if people online are like, oh, that spot's already taken. They're like, that's what I'm saying. Online, when they're buying tape, they're like, oh, someone's already sitting there. Like, there's already someone in that seat. So we're not going to go because the seat's already taken. So we'll just get a different ticket to a different movie theater.
Monet X Change
I don't think.
Bob the Drag Queen
Does that make sense?
Monet X Change
Yeah, I don't think that's how it works.
Bob the Drag Queen
Why wouldn't.
Jacob
Anyway, if you've seen a Movie at Universal CityWalk in the past year and you. You're the friend or a person who is trying to sit in one of those seats, and haven't been to afford to get the seat. Please comment below and contact us.
Bob the Drag Queen
But wouldn't it make sense if you're online, you're like, oh, we're going to get these seats. But, oh, but it's already taken. So I'm not going to show up and ask anyone because the seat's gone already. That's why I think it's a little problematic.
Monet X Change
See, I'll roll up and I'll be like, you got to get up because you don't need the seat.
Bob the Drag Queen
To me, I don't think you would do that.
Monet X Change
I would.
Bob the Drag Queen
You always say you do something, but you're not.
Monet X Change
What I would do is I would. I would get the usher. I would get that.
Bob the Drag Queen
That's what you.
Monet X Change
I would get the usher because you'd
Bob the Drag Queen
be paid to be like. I would roll up and be like. I would say this. You know, that is so toxic. When I get on the plane, I wish somebody would be sitting in my seat.
Monet X Change
We talked about this.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm always like, I hope someone is sitting in my seat.
Monet X Change
Like, okay, this is different. You like, you want this.
Bob the Drag Queen
I hope for the conversation. I want the conversation.
Monet X Change
I don't recognize that part. Can I tell you I bought a
Bob the Drag Queen
new douche Because I am the kind of person who'd be like, well, I wouldn't say that. I would be like, you're. That's my seat.
Monet X Change
Seat.
Bob the Drag Queen
You're in my seat. There have been a few times where I have. Where me and the person were in the. Where me and the person actually had the same seat assignment. Like, we actually both had the same. And I was ready to be like, you're gone. But we both literally had the same seat assignment. Stepping one time.
Monet X Change
Well, so I'm gonna get tickets. So came out is not going.
Bob the Drag Queen
I've not yet. That had a response from Time.
Monet X Change
I think it'll be fine.
Bob the Drag Queen
Neon But I believe that he on his phone at some point.
Monet X Change
All right, we gotta go. Have a good night, babe. I'll see you later at the movie.
Bob the Drag Queen
Bye.
