Bob the Drag Queen
Why can't you, like, literally 10 toes, literally 10 toes down.

Bob the Drag Queen
Wow. You said in front of everyone. You know what? Let's get into the episode. My name is Bob the Drag Queen,
Monet X Change
and I'm Monet X James, and this is simply rivalry.
Bob the Drag Queen
On this week, we discuss why Dasani is indeed the best water.
Monet X Change
We get into Kamala Harris, our new Democratic hopeful nominee.
Bob the Drag Queen
And we found out what made Monae say this.
Monet X Change
Together, we have nothing in common. Cause you ain't nothing but common. And we find out what made Bob say this.
Bob the Drag Queen
Everyone knows Joe Biden loves ice cream. On National Ice Cream Day, Joe Biden was like, I'm out.
Monet X Change
Can I tell you something that I have been very interested in recently?
Bob the Drag Queen
What's that?
Monet X Change
Mini toothbrushes. I am obsessed. I used to see people using these before, and I was like, I don't understand the science behind this, but they really work. And I was like, they're not effective. They are really effective. Especially after, you know, you take a long flight, for example, LAX to New York City. And New York City lax. And, like, you wake up, you sleep for, like, three or four hours. You wake up, you feel your mouth is all nasty. You can chew gum. Gum is a quick fix. But I feel like this really. Like, it has a little. It has a little toothpaste in here, and then you just. It really makes it look like you brush your teeth.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yes, I am. Yeah, it's called a wisp. I don't know if there's a lot of signs. It's just like. There's like a little mint minty ball in the middle, and then it's just at the same time scrubbing your teeth. I don't know if you consider that toothpaste in the middle, but I remember when those first came out, when they called the wisp or the whisk or something.
Monet X Change
Yeah, yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
They're pretty old. I remember when they first came out. Yeah, I want to say they came out in, like, 2006. Ish. And they were just like. They were like. They were like everywhere. And I remember maybe 2008 somewhere around that time. I just remember when they first came out, I was Buying them a lot,
Monet X Change
at least everything coming up for a long flight. Your mouth just feels nasty. And, you know, it's a great little thing. And also, I realized it's basically just.
Bob the Drag Queen
It's just dry brushing, dry brushing. It's just dry brush. You never dry brush. You just take a dry toothbrush and you just.
Monet X Change
No. Why, why? Why would you dry brush? Like, where. What's the situation? One would dry brush just to get
Bob the Drag Queen
the plaque off your teeth, but you don't have access to a bathroom, or you don't have access to toothpaste, or you don't have access to mouthwash. So you just dry brush.
Podcast Advertiser
Huh.
Monet X Change
And like, your mouth feels clean after it.
Bob the Drag Queen
You know when. You know, after you haven't brushed your teeth for a while and you have that layer of plaque over your teeth.
Monet X Change
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
You don't have that anymore. That's gone.
Monet X Change
And then, like, do you have water to spit it out?
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, do you have water to spit out your whisk?
Monet X Change
No, but the mint in here, that's what I'm saying. Like, the toothpaste in here makes it feel like there's some type of cleaning agent.
Bob the Drag Queen
It's not toothpaste. You keep going, that's not toothpaste on there. That stuff in there is just like. It's just like. Like it's. I wouldn't, I wouldn't call that toothpaste. That's in there.
Monet X Change
It's a freshening bead.
Bob the Drag Queen
There it is.
Monet X Change
Yeah, that little bead on the go, waterless, no rinsing. Love it.
Bob the Drag Queen
You also don't. You don't want. You don't want toothpaste in your mouth without rinsing that toothpaste. You don't want to hold toothpaste too long in your mouth. But, but I used to. Yeah, I used to use those when I was. When I first got to New York City. But then I was kind of like, they feel pointless. Then I just started dry brushing. And sometimes now I just carry a thing of mouthwash with me, which I
Monet X Change
understand well, girl, there's new studies about how mouthwash causes Alzheimer's and dementia. And I was like, well, that's my problem. That's why I need to get. Go below. Because the mouthwash been fucking up my brain.
Bob the Drag Queen
You know, certain things when they say, they call certain things, I just kind of don't care. Is that horrible?
Monet X Change
It's not horrible, but I mean, I kind of like pick and choose, like cherry pick which ones I want to listen to. But that one, I'm like, I can. If this is. If this is a cause and effect, I am seeing the effect from the cause I'm doing.
Bob the Drag Queen
I choose not to believe any of them. Like, I'm like, I'm not going to. I got to be honest with you guys. I'm going to drink tap water. Like, you're not there. But some people don't. You know, a lot of people don't. And I'd have to be in a very specific town, right. To not drink the tap water. And for the most part, I feel pretty comfortable across the board, especially where I've lived. Atlanta, New York, Minneapolis, San Francisco, Louisiana. I feel super comfortable drinking with tapas.
Monet X Change
Well, New York City, like, legendarily has had. I don't know if it still stands today, but I know, like, years ago, like, they did a ranking of, like, the cities are the best tap water. New York City was, like, number two. And New York City for a while, like, was known to have good tap water for whatever reason, because we had a lot of fluoride, and fluoride is good. We had a lot of fluoride. Fluoride. And fluoride is good for, like, your whatever, you know what I mean?
Bob the Drag Queen
And also, you guys are not going to convince me not to drink dasani. Like, there's nothing you say. There's nothing you can say or do that would convince me not to drink dasani. I like it, and I think it tastes good.
Monet X Change
Well, people act like when people found out because people. For a long time, people didn't even realize there was salt in it. When it started becoming public knowledge that dasani had whatever percent of sodium, people like. It's especially black people. Black people love T. I don't like dasani. They're water too salty. I'm like, nigga, you didn't even know they had salt until your cousin was talking about it. Cause I didn't know.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, I really just don't mind. I actually prefer dasani. It's on my writer.
Monet X Change
Not kidding. Niggas really was acting like their water was so salty when they started. Niggas hate drinking this. Like, it's too salty. I don't like that salty water.
Bob the Drag Queen
But also, maybe I'm just a contrarian. And I'm like, I just want. I mean, I just start. I was drinking this honey to begin with. I didn't start. I'm from Georgia, and the sunny is coca cola. So I've been drinking this honey for a really long time. I feel like I remember when the sunny came out. Like, I feel like I Have vivid the sunny.
Monet X Change
Yo. This.
Bob the Drag Queen
What do you. What do you call it? It's Dasani.
Monet X Change
Is the sunny. You saying Dasani?
Bob the Drag Queen
My dear Dasani drinking water.
Monet X Change
Dasani. I was like Dasani.
Bob the Drag Queen
Ew. I think I'll go down to the grove and have a liter of Dasani out of a carafe.
Monet X Change
It's also D a s a n I. Not D. You're saying D a s u n n y. No, D a s o n n y. Dasany and Chairman. That's what you're talking about.
Bob the Drag Queen
Dasani delight. Well, I like Dasani. It's on my rider. It's my preferred water. I do not like Deer Park. I don't like spring water.
Monet X Change
I hate Nestle. Nestle water tastes disgusting. And I hate Evian.
Bob the Drag Queen
All these.
Monet X Change
Remember when Evian was like the fancy resheep of water? Evian tastes so nasty.
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't mind Evian, but to me, spring water tastes like a bear shit in the woods. Like Deer park came. Tastes like it came from a park that got deer in it.
Monet X Change
Like Poland Spring. Like Poland Spring.
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't really. I don't have. I don't really remember how Poland Spring takes. But I know that Deer park is upsetting. Deer park is like, if you put a bunch of waters in front of me, I will. I can't always tell you which ones. I can tell you which ones are spring water.
Monet X Change
We're test that. That's going to be a Patreon exclusive. Jacob, please write this down. We're going to do a Patreon exclusive. I'm going to put a bunch of waters. You're going to tell me what spring was not.
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't. I don't know spring water for sure.
Monet X Change
I think you will.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, I'm telling you. So Dasani is purified water or, sorry, distilled water.
Jacob (Producer/Partner)

Monet X Change
This is. This is my. My green screen background.
Bob the Drag Queen
Anyway, Dasani's distilled and my favorite water is distilled water.
Monet X Change
You like distilled water? Like what. What is distilled water? I don't even know what distilled even means.
Bob the Drag Queen
So distilled is when it's like they vaporize it and Then the condensation. And they. I believe that's. And they, and they are, like, distilling it from what distilled water is. I know it tastes the best, but I don't know what it is, but I know. Jacob, Google distilled water. I don't know what it is, but
Monet X Change
I know it's my favorite one.
Bob the Drag Queen
I know that.
Monet X Change
Wait, who gave you the Now Clap shirt? What is that?
Bob the Drag Queen
This is my new merch. Now Clap. Bob the Drag Queen 2018. Excuse me.
Monet X Change
I'm getting 50% of that merch that was created on sibling rivalry, and that is about half of my ip, okay?

Monet X Change

Bob the Drag Queen
You were literally just sitting there, and I was telling a story, okay?
Monet X Change
And I was engaged. I was the reason why that story.
Bob the Drag Queen
I was in the audience when, when, when, when Margaret Cho filmed her special. So I, I get 50% of that.
Monet X Change

Bob the Drag Queen
I can't, I can't wait for Brett Green to contact me. Please have him call me because, honey, Bianca will drag him to the ground.
Monet X Change
Oh, no. Rhett is red is going to take. Brett is known for being very litigious,
Bob the Drag Queen
and Bianca is known for the same thing. Rest assured, you can, you can rest like this, assured that Bianca will do the damn thing.
Monet X Change
Honey, I love it that your lawyer's name is Bianca. That's kind of cute. My lawyer. What's her name? Bianca.
Bob the Drag Queen
Bianca. I don't know her last name.
Monet X Change
You don't know your lawyer's last name?
Bob the Drag Queen
I just call her Bianca. I just call her Bianca. She's a lovely, fierce black woman named Bianca.
Monet X Change
I'm screaming at the top of my
Bob the Drag Queen
lungs, it's a big week for black women.
Monet X Change
I know. It's been a very big week for black women. First, notably my mom.
Bob the Drag Queen
Can you tell me more about that?
Monet X Change
No, she just, she's been calling me non stop because I don't know. I don't know, because my mom's getting older. I was like, I have told her this like, 19 times at this point. And she called me, like, yesterday. She was like, 19 times. My mom would call me every hour on the hour until I answer, and she was like, you're coming to St. Lucia. You think you're trying to, you're trying to sneak up on me. I was like, what do you mean? What are you talking about? She's like, you're coming to St. Lucia for the. For the pride thing. I was like, I told you I was coming to St. Lucia on X day and leaving the next day for this event. She's like, oh, okay. Then she called me two hours later, and they're like, so you come to St. Lucia, aren't you? I was like, bitch, I told you that I'm coming.
Bob the Drag Queen
Bitch. Bitch is crazy. Bitch is crazy.
Monet X Change
Crazy. Like, I. We've had this conversation. I don't know what's going on. I need to, like, send it to a doctor. She's, like, forgetting what. What she. What we've talked about. It's kind of weird.
Bob the Drag Queen
Not. Not to be. Inflammatory or whatever the word is, but you're. You're describing you. You're. You're describing you, and you're in your 30s. You.
Monet X Change
I do not go. I do not forget that I told you something and tell you the thing, the same thing multiple times.
Bob the Drag Queen
You forgot that you were on a TV show.
Monet X Change
That's different than recanting a story. Until like, bob, you need something to come. Yes. That's like.
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, there's several times me being like, bob, I forgot that. You're not doing that. No, Shade. But you're not doing that many TV shows. You're not out here filming.
Monet X Change
I am. Last year, I did three TV shows.
Bob the Drag Queen
Three a year. You did three a year. You can't remember all three of them. You can't name all three of them. It's three months. Three.
Monet X Change
That on top of all the other things that I'm doing. I'm very busy.
Bob the Drag Queen
Three TV shows. You cannot. By the way, I don't do that many TV shows either. I would do more than you, but I don't do that many TV shows either. But I still know the names of every show I've been on. Okay, but.
Monet X Change
Okay, that's because you. I. Bitch. I can't remember what I did yesterday. Where was I yesterday?
Bob the Drag Queen
Which is a testament to the fact that you can't remember things. That's not. That's not.
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
That's.
Bob the Drag Queen
That's not. You're not winning the conversation. What I'm saying is you and your mother are of the same ilk.
Monet X Change
Well, first of all, genetically, we are not. So it cannot be a genetic thing.
Bob the Drag Queen
It doesn't have to be genetically, but you are of the same ilk, just like you and I have a lot of things in common. It is not because we have genetics.
Monet X Change
We have nothing in common. Because you ain't nothing but common.
Bob the Drag Queen
I identify as an every man, every woman. Type.
Monet X Change
Yeah, you ain't nothing but common now who you calling? What is it now who you coming?
Bob the Drag Queen
Can't remember the words, Bitch, you can't remember shit.
Monet X Change
Now who you going to cover yourself? Indulge the episode of the Professional. Why you got to change the key?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, just because you can't reach the key. I reach. Don't feel. Don't try to comfort me. First of all, do it, do it, then reject it.
Monet X Change
Y. Y. Do it.
Bob the Drag Queen
When I be singing songs along with Mariah Carey, I hit the notes. Bob.
Monet X Change
I think you think you're hitting the notes, but you know I'm hitting them.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm telling you, I'm hitting. Where My phone.
Monet X Change
I have to say, if you. If singing was one of your. If you could sing, I feel like you would be insufferable. All the things you make fun of you, you.
Bob the Drag Queen
You.
Monet X Change
All the things you make fun of singers for doing, y'. All. Rest. Rest assured, Bob will be doing it all the time. Bob would be the kind of singer that would never stop singing.
Bob the Drag Queen
That's you.
Monet X Change
But if you could sing, you would never allow us to forget that you could sing. You would sing all the time.
Bob the Drag Queen
I came home this morning, and the. What is. What is an acceptable thermostat temperature?
Monet X Change
Okay, when I go to sleep at night. But it's also because even though Andy and I have been together for a long time, we still go to sleep, and we're like. We cuddle when we sleep. We separate after, like, 10 or 15 minutes, but we, like. We're very big men, so we, like, create a lot of heat. So to offset that, we put the thermostat to go to sleep at 66.
Bob the Drag Queen
Jacob is not a big man, but Jacob is a very warm man, and I am much larger than Jacob, and I do not produce a lot of heat. I'm just not. I don't think the size of your body. I mean, the size of your body certainly has something to do with the amount of heat you produce, but me and Jacob are quite opposite. I am much larger than Jacob, and I produce much less heat than Jacob. And I got into the house this morning. It was the. Was at the 62 degrees.
Monet X Change
62. Okay. 62 is crazy.
Bob the Drag Queen
I was like, it is freezing in here.
Monet X Change
62 is a little unhinged. 62 is a little wild.
Bob the Drag Queen
And in Jacob's defense, it is a little warm right now.
Monet X Change
Girl, California is. This girl is on fire. It's hot. And I'm in the valley, okay? The Valley is, like, 10 degrees hotter than Holly if we're in the Valley, what is the other side called?
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm in Hollywood. You're the one.
Monet X Change
Yeah, but, yeah, but if it's saying. If I say I'm in the Valley, how do you describe the other side of the hill? Do you just call it the neighborhood or like. Cause the Valley, I think the neighborhoods as well.
Bob the Drag Queen
I would say, no, the Valley isn't a neighborhood, but the Valley is a collection neighborhood. So I would say this is Los Angeles. This is Los Angeles and you're in the Valley. Like, your mail doesn't have Los Angeles on it.
Monet X Change
Yes, it does. Are you sure we're in Los Angeles County?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yes, but you don't put your county on your mail. You put the town. Like, for example, when I lived in West Hollywood, it didn't have Los Angeles, it had West Hollywood on it. Like the mail said West Hollywood.
Monet X Change
Right, Like West Hollywood.
Bob the Drag Queen
When you live in Beverly Hills, the mail says Beverly Hills. Right? Now my mail says Los Angeles.
Monet X Change
Yeah, when I lived in East Hollywood, it said Los Angeles. But. But it does. It doesn't say the Valley. California.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, but it, but it says the name of the town you live in. Yours does not say Los Angeles.
Monet X Change
Right. Which is a lie. I was saying, but this is. We all of this is LA county outside of Burbank. Like.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, but it's not about the county. The county and the towns are different things. Like, this is. Well, you said la.
Monet X Change
I don't know if you're referring to the county or the city.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, I guess I'm referring to. I would call this la. West Hollywood, Beverly Hills. And you're in the Valley. But the Valley is a collection of towns. You're in the collection of towns because the Valley's huge. The Valley's quite.
Monet X Change
I know it's huge. The San Fernando Valley is big.
Bob the Drag Queen
The Valley is bigger than la.
Monet X Change
Well, the LA city, yes, but the Valley is part of LA County. What's some.
Bob the Drag Queen
Is the Valley in LA County? Yes, I'm sure about that.
Monet X Change
I am a. What? This is not to quote you. This is not up for debate. It is part of LA County. I am telling you, somebody on the.
Bob the Drag Queen
In the comment section was like, I hate when Bob says up for debate. It's so I. They're like, what he's saying is that no one else's opinion matter. I like girl, shut the fuck up. And that's not up for debate.
Monet X Change
Okay, let's take a break and we'll talk about you and your. Let's take a break. And we're back Why? I saw that comment, and I was cracking. I was cracking.
Bob the Drag Queen
I think I commented like, that emoji. You know, the flat eye emoji. Flat eye, flat mouth emoji. Also, whenever I come in, I always sign my name. But you and Jacob don't do that. So folks be confused. I always comment, and then I write, dash, Bob.
Monet X Change
Well, sometimes I'll do that. I'll. Sometimes I'll comment and say, dash, Bob. Just to, like. Like, you'll. You'll say. You'll write, like, a long thing and you're like, to correct somebody like you did. You did it recently and like, to prove a point about something. And then I. I commented under it, undermining what you said, but also saying Bob. And I think to. Just to confuse people and cause anarchy.
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, that's. That. That scans for you. And I don't think anyone's shocked that you said that. Everyone's like, yeah, that's something you. That's something you would do. It was. It was about. It was about the person being like, bob is trying to change the word trade. And I was like, I'm not. It's certainly not my agenda. I was like, it's not something I'm doing. It's something I'm observing.
Monet X Change
I was like, language, language change. Language is gonna go.
Bob the Drag Queen
What I was saying was there's prescriptive language and descriptive. I mean, prescriptive definitions and descriptive definitions. So, like, I'm just acknowledging what's existing in the world. Know what I'm saying?
Monet X Change
We also want to remind y' all we have a sibling rivalry live show in San Diego on August 8th at the Balboa Theater. It's going to be a live podcast tasting taping. If anyone has been to.
Bob the Drag Queen
Are you going to let them taste you? Will you let one person from the audience lick you?
Monet X Change
Oh, for sure. If I get to choose who it is.
Bob the Drag Queen
Where on your body, are you gonna let them lick you?
Monet X Change
Depending on what I'm wearing. If I'm wearing the outfit that I want to wear, hopefully it's ready by then. Mindy Lamour is making me something very. Oh, are we. Can we. Can we. Can we wear gold? Are you into gold?
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't know that I have a lot of gold. I'll find some gold. I'll find some gold.
Monet X Change
Oh, I have something gold that you want that. Would you wear this gold outfit that I have.
Bob the Drag Queen

Monet X Change
Oh, this is no, Bob. This Is my most. This is my most expensive outfit that I own. This is the most expensive piece of drag that I own, and I will let you wear it. Send me a picture, you know. Oh, my God.

Monet X Change
No, I'm bringing one suitcase. I'm not bringing two suitcases. Why do you need two suitcases for drag?
Bob the Drag Queen
One is for my makeup, and one is for my costumes.
Monet X Change
Your makeup needs a whole. A big size suitcase.
Bob the Drag Queen
Mm. Because it has my makeup, it has my nails, it has my mirrors, it has my fan, and then there's another suitcase for my. I'll show you. I'll post it. Oh, it's at the studio. But at some point, I'll Show. I'll post a video of my makeup bag. Okay. Yeah.
Monet X Change
Okay. This is gonna be a patreon. I'm gonna post mine too. Like, I fit everything in one large bag, and I. That's wild.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, you're not wearing hip pads. My hip pads are large. My hip pads take up a big chunk of my suitcase. Your shoes usually are just a strap and a heel. I have big ass shoes in there. You wear the little straps. So it's just literally just two pancakes smushed together. Okay. So, yeah, also, I bring. I don't really unpack my makeup, so I have a lot of stuff in there that I actually don't use all the time.
Monet X Change
Yeah, I had to re. Or every time I come back, I reorient. I read. No, I keep my makeup the same I want. But what I take palettes and I swap them in and out for, like, oh, I want to try a different color, blah, blah, blah. But I also. I'm pretty, but most of the time, I'm pretty much doing the same neutral eye with a little.
Bob the Drag Queen
I have, like, five palettes that are with me, and I never swap. I just have five with me and then one.
Monet X Change
Crazy. Because if y' all know I am a. I'm a very bothered drag queen fan. And this nigga does either he does a little silver or a gold or a blue. So I don't know why you need five palettes for what?
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay, first of all. First of all, my eyeshadow goes between brown, black, and blue, all of which are found in the pretty funny palette that I use.
Monet X Change
So that's one palette you need to use.
Bob the Drag Queen
And then my. The metallic pigment is the mehron.
Monet X Change
I know what it is.
Bob the Drag Queen
Mehron. And then.
Monet X Change
Okay, and just to be clear, the mehron is not a palette. The mehron comes in a little pot like this.
Bob the Drag Queen
So it's not like two little pots. They're two different pots. And then my eyebrows are inglot or Mac gel liner, which is not a
Monet X Change
palette for the five palettes that you have that you're not using.
Bob the Drag Queen
Not a palette. But then the other ones, because they make me feel comfortable,
Monet X Change
first of all. I mean, I could do your makeup, but I know everything that you use in your makeup. Like, why do you have five extra palettes?
Bob the Drag Queen
Just taking them make me feel comfortable. But I have a blush palette. I have a three pan blush palette that I travel with. And yet everything else just. Cause I'm so used to seeing it. I'd be so sad if I took it out of the suitcase, it upset me. You don't want upset me, do you? You don't want me to be upset.
Monet X Change
Well, I guess we should dry separately. Cause Andy's gonna come and Jacob's gonna come and you have nine suitcases. So I guess we gotta dress separately.
Bob the Drag Queen
I have two and I have all of my. And also I have my glues. I have my glues. What else do I have? My lashes, my eye makeup, my skin make, my foundations, my.
Monet X Change
All of my makeup into in two cubes, like brushes. Everything in these two cubes.
Bob the Drag Queen
I want to have my brushes.
Monet X Change
12 by 12 by 12 by 10 little cubes. Yeah, but wait. So back to what you were saying. It is a very big word for black women. First of all, can I just say, do you think that Joseph Robinette, which his middle name is a Kiki.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm obsessed with his name being Robinette,
Monet X Change
is a hood black lady from California. Robinette.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, Robinette is a country black lady who works in human resources. Robinette works next to Wanda. Wanda's the white lady from human resources. Robinette and Wanda are actually good friends. They don't hang out outside of work, but they are good friends at work.
Monet X Change
You see that, that new movie that Glenn Close is playing, that lady who.
Bob the Drag Queen
She's inspired by that lady who talks like a black lady. The southern white lady. Yeah. And it's a Lee Daniels film, isn't it?
Monet X Change
Yes. I wanted. We have to go see it together.
Bob the Drag Queen
And Monique.
Monet X Change
Yeah. Everyone's talking about how good is we have to watch. Oh no, it comes out straight on. I think it's straight to Netflix.
Bob the Drag Queen
But we went and saw that one movie, that Blackbird. Yeah. I didn't see like so looking forward to it. And we were, we watched, we were like, this movie's not that good.
Monet X Change
Wait, we saw it together or separately or something.
Bob the Drag Queen
But we both were like, it's not that good.
Monet X Change
Yeah, that's what it was. I didn't like it. Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
And we were like this. But we were like. We were like, it's about to be it. And we were like.
Monet X Change
Do you think obviously it was public opinion that made Robinette take a knee, right?
Bob the Drag Queen
Probably. Or have you been watching the Boys?
Monet X Change
Yes, I finished it. The season. This was crazy.
Bob the Drag Queen
Spoiler alert.
Monet X Change
Oh yeah. Spoiler alert.
Bob the Drag Queen
Or did Robinette, Sister Sage. It was this the plan the whole time. Because someone said this. Joe Biden said 40 years ago that he was going to be a one term president. Forty years ago, Joe Biden said he's going to be. And then when Joe Biden ran this time. Joe Biden was like, I'm doing one term. I'm doing this. I got one in me, y'. All. I got one.
Monet X Change
When he won in 2020.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yes. And then people are like, no, he's got to stay in. He's got to stay in. He's got to stay in. He's like, I'll stay in. And then the mental decline happened. And then, because Joe Biden, baby, in 24 years ago, this nigga, he was going toe for toe with Trump. He was like, man, shut up. You remember that? Man, shut up. Shut the fuck up. Don't ever talk to me like that on this debate stage. And then all of a sudden, the mental decline. Joe Biden can't think of worse. He can't look left, he can't look right. And then all of a sudd built up all this stuff. Joe Biden's old. He can't remember. Joe Biden can't remember nothing. Then they spent all this money making Joe or let's go, Brandon FJB shirts. They.
Monet X Change
They spit the entire Brandon. Who's Brandon?
Bob the Drag Queen
Let's go, Brandon means Joe Biden.
Monet X Change
Why? I don't get it. Can you explain that?
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't get it, but let's go, Brandon does mean Joe Biden. Just. Just trust me on that. I don't get it, but it does mean that. And then they spit the entire RNC bashing Joe Biden. And then Joe Biden on National Ice Cream Day. And everyone knows Joe Biden loves ice cream. You know about this, right?
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
No.
Monet X Change
Why do you know?
Bob the Drag Queen
Everyone knows Joe Biden loves ice cream. On National Ice Cream Day, Joe Biden was like, I'm out. Kamala Harris, you got this. And now everything. They spent all their time because Donald Trump spent a lot of money bashing Joe Biden. Yeah, but now it doesn't matter because Joe Biden's gone. Joe Biden's not not in the race anymore. So now they're trying to resurface to find out a way to get Kamala Harris. Now, I want to say out loud to you, all right now, those of you who are planning to vote third party, I'm not trying to convince you. You have made your mind up. I am not trying to convince you. Those of you who are not voting, I'm not trying to convince you. You have made your mind up. You are not voting. And I'm sure that your pressure toward Democrats is going to help a lot. It's already solving Kamala Harris's issues stance regarding the Genocide in Palestine. I'm not trying to convince you. I also want to say out loud that I don't think that that voting blue, no matter who, gives you a moral high ground. I also don't think that not voting gives you a moral high ground. I don't think voting third party gives you a moral high ground, because morals are obviously, each person can pick, you know, can pick what they mention themselves. I don't think any of these things give you a moral high ground, in my humble opinion. But also, that's just my very humble opinion.
Monet X Change
I do think we are in a very unique position as people, because obviously, Kamala and the Democratic politicians really. They really want to get our votes. I think now is a time that we can be. That we can make demands and we can, like, use like, this as a time to, like, get the things you want. Because as you said, like, we have seen her already soften her stance. On what? On the genocide and everything happening in the Middle east with Israel and Palestine. So I think that now is the time that we can use our power as people who live in this country. Who they need, who these public servants. Because remember, y', all, the president is a public. Public servant. He's here to serve us, this nation of his constituents, her nation of the constituents. So I think that now is the
Bob the Drag Queen
time where we can. Wow, his. That's crazy. The sex.
Monet X Change
His or her? Because, well, it's his right now. It is his right now. We don't have a female president yet, but we will in a few months. So now, I think, is a time where I. Where even, like, fucking aoc. I just love AOC and, like, how all of these public servants are. We can make them serve us by, you know, again, I not voting.
Bob the Drag Queen
You want Joe Biden to serve you? You want. You want to be serviced by Joe Biden?
Monet X Change
Yes.
Bob the Drag Queen
You want to be service?
Monet X Change
Yeah, take. Take the teeth out and service me. Daddy,
Bob the Drag Queen
you think Joe Biden has fake teeth? Of course.
Monet X Change
But also, you. Wait, you said something I want to respond to. Like, yes, he. I think that the cognitive decline is real, girl. Like, anyone who has had an older family member, like, sometimes the difference in two years is vast. Like, they're doing fine one year, and, like, you go see them the next year, and it'd be a completely different person. Like, I don't think that's put on, I think. And also, the job of the president is so stressful. Bitch, you remember the pictures you. They show you of Obama before and after the White House? Like, this nigga look like, he aged 30 years over that time. Like, it's like a lot of, it's a lot. So I don't think that it was something that's put on. I think that the cognitive decline and his age really, it's really tough work. And I think that anyone who has an old, old, old family member, the difference between a year, just a year can be, like, crazy. Like, the person that you see one year is be completely different.
Bob the Drag Queen
How did Donald Trump come out looking younger? We aged. Everyone in America aged. We all aged 20 years and Donald Trump was sucking our souls like the witches in Hocus Pocus.
Monet X Change
I know, I know.
Bob the Drag Queen
But we're. And we're. And we're. Thackeray Binks.
Monet X Change
Thackeray Binks. I will say, it is so sweet. It's, it's almost as sweet as St. Lucia to see how these Republicans are there. You can see them like, you can see the fear in their eyes. Girl, they are. Because everyone is getting, you know, I, I, someone was talking. Joy Reid, she was talking about it before. Like, I have not been this excited in a president thing since the first year Obama was up for election. Like, I feel that same, like, energy and excitement that change is going to come. And because it was bleak after that assassination, assassination attempt, I was like, oh, it's a wrap, bitch. They are taking it home to glory to you. Like, it's a wrap where, like, Trump is winning. And now it doesn't feel like that anymore. Now it's what, 99, 98 days until the election as we're recording this now. So a lot will change and things will change and things will happen in these next three months, which fucking pisses me off that our election cycle just feels like there's so much to chance and like, we'll wake up tomorrow, tomorrow morning and some new shit is going to happen. But for now, it all feels very exciting.
Bob the Drag Queen
I agree. It does feel very exciting. And I think that the, the Repubs, you know, I'll tell you how I feel about the Repubs after this break. I feel like the rehubs are really nervous about Kamala Harris and the vigor that she has.
Monet X Change
Oh, my God. Well, don't use that kind of language
Bob the Drag Queen
with Kamala that she has behind her. And especially it's the first time that the Divine Nine have ever supported a presidential candidate.
Monet X Change
No, that's great. Crazy.
Bob the Drag Queen
Which is a pretty, which is a pretty big deal. And it's honestly a really big, you know, the Divine Nine and are a very powerful and also, you know, a Big difference between. A big difference between Hillary versus Trump and Harris versus Trump. I mean, Clinton versus Trump and Harris versus Trump is that, you know, what's the, what's going to really, you know, what's really scaring the boomers?
Monet X Change
What?
Bob the Drag Queen
All the Gen Z can vote now. Like, all. Almost all of the Gen Z can vote now. Yeah, there are. So the two largest voting blocks are Gen Z and millennials. Those are the two largest voting blocks. Really? Millennials are the largest voting block. There are more millennials in the world than any other generation alive. Millennials. There are a lot of us then.
Monet X Change
Gen X really, Gen X is huge.
Bob the Drag Queen
Millennials are the largest voting block and we are the largest generation for sure. And I, and I mean, and I would say I was this excited for Bernie Sanders. I was actually very excited, but obviously they didn't last long. Yeah, we saw what happened there, but I was still quite excited.
Monet X Change
Okay. Yeah, wait, hold on.
Narrator/Advertiser
Yeah.
Monet X Change
Nearly 41 million Gen Z. 41. 41 million members of Gen Z will be eligible to vote in 2024. Wow. New estimates show that 8 million youth are aging into the 8 million you. 8 million Gen Z's are coming into the voting cycle in 2024. That's a lot.
Bob the Drag Queen
And how many, how many millennials are there voting?
Monet X Change
I'm looking right now.
Bob the Drag Queen
41 million genes. That's a massive, massive number.
Monet X Change
That is 41 million. Out of. Out of how many Americans are normally are eligible to vote? It'd be like 80. No, it's like 300 something million, right?
Bob the Drag Queen
No, there's only 300. There's only like 330 million Americans. That's man, woman, and child. That's like every single person.
Monet X Change
Yeah, you're right. Oh, yeah. Millennials and Gen Z's are only a few years away from dominating the electorate via Politico. But I don't know what year this are, but this is. No, this is 2020, girl. I don't know.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, girl, we're it. We're. I'm telling you, Jen Z and Millennials, we are the. We. We. We have.
Monet X Change
We.
Bob the Drag Queen
We got the power. I was about to take that. Which I think is. Which I think scares Radonda.
Monet X Change
Yeah, I mean, yeah, because like, as. Because we see how, like, you know, like what Gen Z is defined by like, and like, what their. As a, as a, as a. What do you call Gen Z Millennials?
Bob the Drag Queen
As a lineal.
Monet X Change
No, no, no. As, like, what are those called?
Bob the Drag Queen
Gen X generations.
Monet X Change
Yeah, as a generation, like Gen Z has, you know, has a very. What they're defined by right. Like, they're, they're, they're open and they're, they're more, they, they care more about their, their everyday person. Unlike, it feels like other generations. And I feel like when, like, imagine what Generation Alpha is going to be like. They're going to be like. I feel like with just Gen Z and Gen Alpha and Millennials, we're going to have, like, a lot of Democrats and Republic and Democrats and Lefties coming on through.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. And I'm reinvigorated for the election. And I think that, I think it makes sense that a lot of politicians end up being moderate because that's how the voting ends up going. I mean, if, if everyone votes, you're going to end up with a moderate choice. You know, if everyone's voting to whittle, Whittle things down, of course you're going to end up with a moderate. Also, I think that J.D. vance is really dragging Donald Trump down pretty severely.
Monet X Change
You know the thing about cat ladies and shit, he is like, how do you have someone like that on your team? Like, what a stupid decision to choose that person. And also, fuck Nikki Haley. This bitch running around talking about, I will never support Donald. I will never endorse Donald Trump. He is this. He's a liar bitch. I am so happy and proud to announce my endorsement of President Donald Trump. Like, you sound.
Bob the Drag Queen
And look, she fucking, she folded, girl. She folded. Like, she folded like Evie oddly. Ok, she. She fucking folded. And I mean, same thing with J.D. van J. Van's like, I'm a never Trump guy, girl. Hitler, he called him.
Monet X Change
I mean, he called him America's Hitler.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. I would never. I'm so happy to be sitting next to my president. Damn, that was great. Also, does JD Vance not remember what happened to Mike Pence? Why would anybody want to be Donald Trump's?
Monet X Change
Because they're so crowded by their own future political idea, like ideals. Like, Nikki Haley wants to run in 2028. Bitch, you're not gonna have a chance at 2028, girl. You're. It's, it's, it's a wrap for you, girl. It's a rap.
Bob the Drag Queen
So the question is, like, how do they think? Like, looking at everyone who's aligned themselves with Trump and how their political careers have got gone and how many of them are just straight up in prison?
Monet X Change
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, literally straight up in jail, looking at jail time. Social political pariahs.
Monet X Change
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Why do they think it's going to work out for them if it didn't work? If it Couldn't work out. If it couldn't work out for America's mayor, Rudy Giuliani, why would it work out for you?
Monet X Change
Now it's looking crazy. Walking down aisles, falling into chairs and shit. Like, every time. Every time there's a. There's a. There's a camera on Rudy Giuliani. He is walking around, to quote Monique, running around looking crazy as a. Just falling over. His head is leaking like, this nigga looks crazy.
Bob the Drag Queen
If it couldn't work for Mike Pence, why do you think it worked for you? Also, I just want to go ahead and encourage all the white folks listening. I know you are thinking about doing your. Your Kamala Harris think piece. I know you have it in the drafts. You drafted up your why you shouldn't vote for Kamala Harris think piece. I know you have, and you're. And you want to. You want to hit post so bad. Don't do it. Don't do it. To quote Kamala Harris, do not come.
Monet X Change
Oh, God. Do I remind people of that? I will say that was great.
Bob the Drag Queen
Not a shining moment, but do not. And. But you're gonna want to. You're gonna want to.
Monet X Change
You.
Bob the Drag Queen
It is gonna be. You're itching. You're itching to do it. I'd wait.
Monet X Change
I did love it or leave it last night for drag rappers.
Bob the Drag Queen
What is that?
Monet X Change
That show that you did with Jon Lovitt, and you thought it was Jon Lovitz?
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, yeah.
Monet X Change
And then he reminded me. He's like, so your good friend father Dragman's on here, and he thought he was gonna show with Jon Lovitz, and on your podcast, you corrected him that it was like, who I am Jon Lovitz. But you incorrectly said that I was married to Jon Favreau, and I was like, you're not. He was like, no, Jon Favreau is straight. He has a wife.
Bob the Drag Queen
But also like, girl, shut up. Like, we don't know you.
Monet X Change
No, he was kidding. He wasn't being silly.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, he's kidding, but also, like, a little hurt. Like, a little, like, ouch.
Monet X Change
I don't think so.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, it was giving a little ouch.
Monet X Change
Oh.
Bob the Drag Queen
Ooh.
Monet X Change
Jaw level is very sweet. And also so on his show last night, oh, my God, just marry him.
Bob the Drag Queen
Why don't you, While you're at him on Just fucking marry him. Is he over at Dynasty still at Dynasty?
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
Yeah.
Monet X Change
And he had. He had. Sorry, I forget. This woman's name. I think her name is Amy something. Anyway, she is Sedaris. No, no, she. No, she is a winehouse no, she's a Kamala Harris Schumer, and she was sober.
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
Allison Reese.
Monet X Change
Allison Reese. She was fucking hysterical.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, the girl who does the.
Monet X Change
Okay, that one. She does.
Bob the Drag Queen
She does. Harris.
Monet X Change
Yes, she does. Kamala. Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. I feel like we should be calling her by her last name, and here's why. I feel like we call every male politician by their last names, and we call all women by the. We go Hillary. We go Ruth. We go Nancy.
Monet X Change
I think we say Nancy Pelosi.
Bob the Drag Queen
We say Nancy Pelosi, but we go Biden. We say.
Monet X Change
We say Joe Biden. I think Joe Biden.
Bob the Drag Queen
Trump is a lot say Biden. Biden is a thing. People say Biden. People want 100 say Biden. Now I can make a case for Clinton because there was a Bill Clinton, and maybe people think Bill Clinton. I don't think anyone's thinking Bill Clinton in the past 10 years. No one thinks Bill Clinton's running for president. No one thinks Bill Clinton was the Secretary of state. You know, no one thinks that for sure.
Monet X Change
We say we do a lot.
Bob the Drag Queen
We call. We call women in politics by their first name a lot.
Monet X Change
We say AOC we say Elon Omar. We say Ayanna Pressley. We say her first last name.
Bob the Drag Queen
But, like, people would say, like.
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
Harris has stated in interviews that she does actually prefer being called Kamala.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, does she like it? All right, then we'll be calling her Kamala. Yeah, Bob, but you didn't know that. I just want to point out, I didn't know that. You will lie as a. You will lie and you don't feel bad about it as a Kamala Harris. Stan, it comes so easily to you. It comes so easily. It's crazy.
Monet X Change
Also, ain't no people like to. People are. Are finding, like, taking this thing to be like, ugh, she's just so casual. Like, there's this picture of her at a Picture. A video of her dancing at this. Let me send it to you. Of her dancing at. I don't know what she's at, but I'm like, why? Like, why is this a bad thing? Like, why does our president need to be this, like, scary boogeyman that we. That can't dance at a function and, like, be a normal human being? Like, I don't understand.
Bob the Drag Queen
Like, to be clear, that has never been a requirement for a president. No one's ever wanted that. They're using this against Kamala Harris. She's a black woman. That's what they're using for her. Donald Trump famously dances. He hugs the Flag. He kisses the Bible.
Monet X Change
Barack Obama, Facebook you.
Bob the Drag Queen
And Barack Obama was never known for being mean. JFK was known for being handsome and charming. The president being a scary boogeyman has never, ever, ever once been a requirement for any president. Bill Clinton played the saxophone on late night tv. Like, there has never been a requirement ever where they wanted a man to be grumpy and mean.
Monet X Change
Like, and everyone is like, is this. End of the tweet is is this. We all wanted your president. I'm like, yes, I. In fact, I do. I would love that. Like, there is like, what's the problem?
Bob the Drag Queen
What song is she dance to?
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
Hold on.
Monet X Change
Oh, it's it. Also, she just made me like, I'm obsessed.
Bob the Drag Queen
I thought she gonna do what somebody some of it start stepping like the AKAS be doing.
Monet X Change
Girl. Oh, if Kamala Harris get busts out into a stroll, I will lose my mind.
Bob the Drag Queen
She probably used to. She probably used to. I don't know. She probably wasn't. I mean, every AKA doesn't step.
Monet X Change
I would lose my mind.
Bob the Drag Queen
You think she did it? I mean, there would be footage.
Monet X Change
I think they all.
Bob the Drag Queen
Kamala Harris was stepping. There would be footage of it.
Monet X Change
By this point, I think as an aka Like, I'm pretty sure I can ask RC if she's an aka. I think they all have to learn, like, the stroll. I don't think everyone had to do the stepping thing, but this, like, the stroll that they have to learn to do with their sisters. I think you have to do it.
Bob the Drag Queen
Like, I don't think dancing is a requirement to be Greek.
Monet X Change
I think the stroll is for AKA and a lot of Divine Nines. They each have, like, a stroll that represents their sorority or fraternity.
Bob the Drag Queen
My uncle's a Q. I could call him and ask him.
Monet X Change
Oh, hot Q dog. Your uncle the preacher.
Bob the Drag Queen
Mm, Uncle Scotty.
Monet X Change
Cues are hot.
Bob the Drag Queen
You know, I find them a little bit obnoxious. That's probably a cue list. I don't think there is a cue listening, actually. I don't think there's a single Q listening to this podcast. If you are a Q listening to
Monet X Change
this podcast, please sound off and show Bob that he is wrong.
Bob the Drag Queen
I genuinely, I think of the. Of all the major fraternities and sororities, I believe the one where we have a 0% listenership is the cues.
Monet X Change
We have a cue, if y' all didn't know. So for all the white people, like, what's Divine Nine? Divine Nine are nine historically black fraternities and sororities, and they are like, you name them. Yeah. We have Alpha Phi Alpha, which is male. The Akas. Delta Delta, Delta Sigma, Theta Zeta. The Zetas. We have the Kappas, we have the Qs, and we have. I'm missing three. What are three? I'm missing.
Bob the Drag Queen
I can't. I already told you, I can't name them all. You got all the ones. You didn't say Q's yet. You say Q. I don't know.
Monet X Change
I don't know.
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
Alpha Kappa. Wait, yes, Alpha Kappa.
Bob the Drag Queen
Although, to be. To be fair, they're. They're typically referred to as AKAs. People don't usually call them Alpha Kappa Alphas. People use. Refer them as AKAs.
Monet X Change
Yeah. And the Q dogs are known. They're. They're one of the fraternities. And their colors are purple and gold, I think. And they're known to be very macho. Like, very.
Bob the Drag Queen
Like, they bark.
Monet X Change
They bark. They're very machismo. And to be a Q, you get. They. They literally brand you with the. What? What symbol is that? What is that?
Bob the Drag Queen
An Omega.
Monet X Change
Omega. You get branded.
Bob the Drag Queen
All cues are branded. I don't think you have. I mean, a lot of cues get branded, but I don't think all Q's are branded.
Monet X Change
Is your uncle branded?
Bob the Drag Queen
I think. I think I'm branded.
Monet X Change
I'm pretty sure, yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Can you name off all the. All the. All the fraternities and sororities?
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
All right, we have Alpha Phi Alpha Alpha Kappa, Alpha Kappa Alpha Psi, Omega Psi Phi Delta Sigma Theta Phi Beta Sigma Zeta Phi Beta Sigma, Sigma Gamma Rho, and Iota Phi Theta.
Monet X Change
That's the one.
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
Also, on a side note, I just recently learned that Catherine Zeta Jones was not Latina. I thought she was Latina.
Bob the Drag Queen
Can you say right, right into the microphone, Jacob, again, please?
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
Sorry. I recently realized that Catherine Zeta Jones was not Latina. I thought she was a Latina woman.
Bob the Drag Queen
Catherine Zeta Jones.
Monet X Change
I don't think she was Latina. I just.
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
Did you think because she was a movie, right? Assume.
Monet X Change
Yeah, Zorro. Like, I think that people think she's. She's. She is Latinx because she was in Zorro. But she's not. She's just.
Bob the Drag Queen
People think Scarlett Johansson is a trans man. A Filipino woman. A radio, a snake.
Monet X Change
Wait, Scarlett Johansson played a play to play a Filipino person?
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm almost positive she played a Filipino person.
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
No, I think that was Emma Stone.
Bob the Drag Queen
Was Emma Stone.
Monet X Change
Emma Stone. White ass plates. Well, I mean, white as hell, too, but Emma Stone is like. She's like alabaster.
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
There was like one movie where Emma. It, like, takes place in Hawaii. And Emma Stone plays a person of, I believe, like, Filipino, maybe Polynesian descent.
Monet X Change
I am. I had to look this up.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. Maybe it wasn't Scar. Sorry. Scarlett Johansson. I was gonna move her. I probably shouldn't be spreading rumors about her.
Monet X Change
Emma Stone, Filipino.
Bob the Drag Queen
But I don't think Scarll Johansson knows my name at all.
Monet X Change
She's married to Colin Jost.
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't know who that is.
Monet X Change
He's the guy.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, he's the. He's the weekend update.
Monet X Change
Yes. Yeah. The white one is known as Allison. I don't know how to pronounce the Ng last name, so I'm not gonna. Sorry.
Bob the Drag Queen
Nguyen. Nguyen. Nguyen.
Monet X Change
Nguyen. Okay. Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
She.
Monet X Change
She played the white. She played.
Bob the Drag Queen
That's a Vietnamese name.
Monet X Change
Well, that's the per. That's the person you played.
Bob the Drag Queen
Maybe the character is Vietnamese or maybe the characters. Maybe it's a Filipino person with a Vietnamese name. That happens. I mean, I have a Scottish last name and I'm not Scottish, so. But we know how that happened.
Monet X Change
Marriage.
Bob the Drag Queen
Marriage, Yep. My great grandma married. I can't think of a Scottish first name. Carl. Is that a Scottish name?
Monet X Change
I don't fucking know. What is a Scottish first name? Ross.
Bob the Drag Queen
Rose's name is Raj. Ross. Ross. Is there a queen who you like? Your name doesn't really match you.
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
His name is Fred.
Bob the Drag Queen
Whose name is Fred?
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
Olivia Lux.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. That doesn't match. I don't think Roy matches Bianca either. Roy doesn't match Bianca.
Monet X Change
Why? Because she's Latinx?
Bob the Drag Queen
No, she just doesn't like a Roy. Roy is such a plain name. Roy's like Roy.
Monet X Change
Can I tell you that video?
Bob the Drag Queen
Albert. She looks like an Albert.
Monet X Change
Albert.
Bob the Drag Queen
She looks like an Albert. Yeah, for sure.
Monet X Change
That queen from Canada, Drag Race that goes around doing DragCon and calls everyone by their boy names. I am obsessed with it. I've watched each one. Like, I think it's hilarious.
Bob the Drag Queen
Tina Burner looks like a Christian.
Monet X Change
She does.
Bob the Drag Queen
If that queen came up to me and said Caldwell, I would be like, hey, girl. But if she said Christopher Caldwell, that would irritate me.
Monet X Change
Really?
Bob the Drag Queen
Like, when anyone calls me. I just don't like being called Chris.
Monet X Change
I know that.
Bob the Drag Queen
I just don't like it.
Monet X Change
Okay, the question. Because all your family. Do you hate that, too?
Bob the Drag Queen
Do what?
Monet X Change
All your family calls you like that. Do you hate it?
Bob the Drag Queen
So my mother called me Christopher, and I actually. I actually don't mind being called Christopher. But just by my mom, everyone else in my family calls me Chris. My mom called me Christopher.
Monet X Change
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Everyone else called me Chris. And I. I don't I don't care for it. I'm never gonna convince them to call me Caldwell because half of them are also Caldwells. You know what I mean? So I'm not gonna ever convince them to call me Caldwell. So they just call me Chris, and I just accept it. And it doesn't bother me when it's them, but other people, it bothers me.
Monet X Change
What does Justin call you?
Bob the Drag Queen
Chris.
Monet X Change
Oh, yeah, I'm about to say he don't call you Chris.
Bob the Drag Queen
Career. But. But I. But if they all call me Christopher, I would prefer that, but that does not mean I want y' all to come to call me Christopher. You can call me. You can call me Bob. All y' all can call me Bob. I actually all. Almost all of my close friends call me Bob, with the exception of, like, a few.
Monet X Change
Who else? Oh, probably like Summer and down.
Bob the Drag Queen
I know you probably Summer. A couple of the folks that I'm. I mean, I wouldn't say I'm super close to them, but the folks I met over at Angels in America call me Caldwell.
Monet X Change
Wow, so you're closer to them than us, Mark.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, I didn't say that. That calling me Caldwell has nothing to do with. With how close you are to me then. But calling me Chris does have something to do with how close you are to me. And it's. You're either very close or you are very far. There is nothing in between for calling me Chris. It's true. But Bob, you can call me Bob. And that really has no standing on how close you are to me and Caldwell. My Uber drivers call me Caldwell, so.
Monet X Change
Well, partners. I don't know how you and Jacob partners. Every Queen's partner that they're with for a long time, they always call them by their, you know, name. That's not their Queen name. I don't know any Queen that is in a long term relationship that their partner calls them by their drag name.
Bob the Drag Queen
Jake calls me Bob. To other people. When Jacob's talking about.
Monet X Change
Jacob calls you Caldwell.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, to you. But when Jacob's talking to people in a professional setting, he says, Bob, like when we're at the. When we're at the theater or if we're somewhere. If we're at work at a photo shoot, Jacob refers to me as Bob. But when we're home, Jacob calls me Caldwell. What if.
Monet X Change
What, what if what would you ins. Jacob calls you Bob. Would that be weird? I.
Bob the Drag Queen
It would be shocking.
Monet X Change
So, yeah, it would be weird.
Bob the Drag Queen
I guess it would be where you. I would be really taken aback. I'm like, oh, Jacob also. Jacob also calls me Balshatzar.
Monet X Change
What?
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't know why he does it, but he calls me Balshazar. Well, I think I know why he does it. Because I call Jacob by his full name and then because he calls me Caldwell. And my. Caldwell's my last name. And my. The last thing that I've given myself is made up. It's not a real. It's not a real last name. It's the name I made up for myself, so called LTD Q. Which is not actually my name, but it's what I go by. Then he made up a middle name for me, which is Bal Shazar. Is that probably why you do it, Jacob?
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
Yeah, that's how I do it.
Bob the Drag Queen
The microphone for us, Jacob.
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
That's what, that's why I do it.
Monet X Change
Y' all some kinky.
Bob the Drag Queen
So you can call me Baltazzar if you want as well.
Monet X Change
And he's so weird. He, he, he, he like calling me, calling me. Everyone calls me Kevin. I'm like, bitch. Well, no. Which I don't care. But he loves calling Selena out of her drag name and that. I told him, stop calling her out of her dragon. Her name is motherfucking Selena. It's not Jason.
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, if I'm at work with Jacob, I don't want him being like, Caldwell. Can someone go get Caldwell? Like, let's make it linear at work. Just be like, where can we get Bob to set? Like, I don't, I don't need you at work. But also, Andy doesn't really work with you, so it doesn't really matter. And it's just like, where's Kevin?
Monet X Change
Yeah, yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
But if Andy, if Andy worked with you, like, if our managers were like, where's Kevin? That'd be weird, right?
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
When I, when I first started dating Caldwell, he was doing a gig for the Gay Men's Chorus of San Francisco. And they had him like up in a hotel room to get ready and he was like, oh, yeah, you can just stop by my hotel room. I'm just finishing up my gig and then we can just go back home. But they didn't tell him that it was like the after party hotel room. So he was trying to like get de dragged. And there was like a full gay men's course after party coming I forgot about. So, like knocked on the door and this random man wearing a full suit opened the door and I was like, hey, is Caldwell here? And he was like, who? I was like, Caldwell. And he's like, I don't Know a Caldwell? Is there a Caldwell here? And then Bob was like, yeah, it's me.
Bob the Drag Queen
I forgot. I was so annoyed by that. I was so irritated that I had to get out of drag in the middle of the after party. I want to perform with a gay men's chorus.
Monet X Change
I have a bunch of times.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay, Just rubbing it in my face.
Jacob (Producer/Partner)

Bob the Drag Queen
I am.
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
No, you can if you want. It's the close one.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, well, let's do it. I mean, I have to form with one option.
Jacob (Producer/Partner)

Monet X Change
Oh, you want to be Jacob? That's so cute.
Jacob (Producer/Partner)

Bob the Drag Queen

Monet X Change
Yeah, who not gonna remember? Shit. Okay, mom. Yeah, okay, Mom. You know, you fully becoming my mother. You are my mother.
Bob the Drag Queen
What I mean to say was I performed with the San Francisco Orchestra as well.
Monet X Change
No, first of all, you did not perform a used to perform. See, you don't even know you performed with the San Francisco Symphony. It's a difference know what the you talking about before you just start saying
Bob the Drag Queen
Jesus Christ.
Monet X Change
It's a very important distinction. Not with the San Francisco Orchestra. The San Francisco symphonies we performed with.
Bob the Drag Queen
Wait, why the vitriol? I got you that gig.
Monet X Change
You did not give me that gig.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yes, yes, I did.
Monet X Change
I know you did not.
Bob the Drag Queen
How we can call Peaches Christ right now and she'll confirm.
Monet X Change
Do you know what gig that's you that you better thank me for? The motherfucking Charlotte Pride that you're doing. Cause I turned that down.
Bob the Drag Queen
Honey, we can call Peaches Christ right now and she'll confirm it.
Monet X Change
I turned that one down for you. So can I have a thank you?
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay, first of all, that's not how I got the gig. Let's be clear on that.
Monet X Change
How'd you get it then?
Bob the Drag Queen
First of all, my cousin is literally in charge of Charlotte Pride.
Monet X Change
Okay, well, your cousin reached out to Monet X Change LLC first.
Bob the Drag Queen

Jacob (Producer/Partner)
Holiday Gaiety was first presented by the San Francisco Orchestra in 2018. Previous guests has included drag performers Coco Peru, Bob the Drag Queen, and Thorgy Thor.
Monet X Change
Oh, we did not do the same gig, baby, because I did not perform with the orchestra. I performed with the symphony, so it was the orchestra, so we did not
Bob the Drag Queen
do the same gig, so it was. So it was orchestra, so we did
Monet X Change
not do the same gig.
Bob the Drag Queen
Wait, wait, wait, wait. Beep, beep. Who got the keys to the Jeep? Can you. Can you apologize if you're wrong? Can you apologize if you're wrong? Since I did perform at the orchestra, can you apologize that we had the same gig?
Monet X Change
I performed at the symphony, not the orchestra, so we.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay, first of all, did you do the Holiday Gaiety?
Monet X Change
No.
Bob the Drag Queen
You did not do the Holiday Gayety? With Peaches Christ?
Monet X Change
Yeah, with Peaches Christ. Correct. No.
Bob the Drag Queen
You think. You think maybe they swapped out the orchestra and the symphony? You think maybe that happened?
Monet X Change
Oh, my God. You don't even know how it worked.
Bob the Drag Queen
You think maybe that happened? Did you do a holiday show with Peaches Christ?
Monet X Change
I did. With the San Francisco.
Bob the Drag Queen
What was the Holiday Gaddy.
Monet X Change
With the San Francisco Symphony.
Bob the Drag Queen
So can you acknowledge that I perform?
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
Here's the article right here. San Francisco Symphony, Holiday Gaiety. Monet is correct.
Monet X Change
Thank you.
Bob the Drag Queen
But we both did the Holiday Gaiety. It's the same gig. They just. I did the orchestra, you did the symphony.
Monet X Change
Okay? And so. And let me tell you something. The symphony is of notoriety, honey, not the orchestra. Get that.
Bob the Drag Queen
Can you acknowledge that you were wrong?
Monet X Change
Get that straight.
Bob the Drag Queen
Can you acknowledge that you were wrong, please? It would mean a lot to me.
Monet X Change
Not wrong.
Bob the Drag Queen
You said I didn't perform with the orchestra. You said that.
Monet X Change
Well, because I. Jacob, read it again.
Bob the Drag Queen
Jacob, read it one more time, please.
Monet X Change
He just read mine. The symphony.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, mine. Mines is mines.
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
Holiday Gaiety was first presented by the San Francisco Orchestra in 2018.
Bob the Drag Queen
So can you acknowledge that you were wrong and that I performed with the San Francisco Orchestra? Please, Monet, we have 20 seconds left in the party. You're the one who claims you always say you're wrong. Say you're wrong.
Monet X Change
No, because there was miscommunication.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, no. There was no community. I said I performed with the orchestra and you said no, you didn't actually. You performed with the symphony. That's what happened.
Monet X Change
Why got to make me sound like that, though? That's so rude. I don't make you sound crazy.
Bob the Drag Queen
I remember it. That's just my auditory recall. Yeah, that's just my recall. You said I was tone deaf. That's the tone I heard.
Monet X Change
All that's already recall this. Click. I'm about to hang up on this call.
Bob the Drag Queen
How about that you acknowledge you're wrong. Please. Before we go, we have. We have literally negative 14 seconds.
Monet X Change
And with that. And thank y' all for listening to this episode of Civic Rival.
Narrator/Advertiser
Wow.
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't want to hear no more I say when I'm. I don't want to hear no more I say when I'm wrong. It's a rap on that, baby. Because you're wrong. I perform with the orchestra, and you perform with the pathetic little symphony. The tiny, minuscule, little, sad ass symphony. I had a whole orchestra behind me. I conducted you and I conducted.
Monet X Change
Honey, you sound insane by saying no, I'm sorry.
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
I think there's some confusion. This is confusion in the wording of the article. It is actually the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra for both.
Bob the Drag Queen
And it's a symphony.
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
And it's a San Francisco Symphony Orchestra. If you look right here on their website, this is sssymphony.org and we can see the program for the December 7, 2017. This is the. Is this the day we met, Bob?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, actually. Oh, my God. What's our date that we met?
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
There we go.
Monet X Change
Can y' all get a room? Can y' all get a room?
Bob the Drag Queen
I had a room.
Monet X Change
Jesus. Yeah, with the whole Gay Men's Chorus.
Bob the Drag Queen
You know I wrote Jacob a poem.
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
Well, no, so the Gay Men's Chorus was a different deal. We hooked up the night on the. When he. After he was done doing this concert, we just met on Grindr. And then later, as we continued to date, he did this Gay Men's chorus.
Bob the Drag Queen
Do you know, the first day I met Jacob, I wrote him a poem.
Monet X Change
I told. It is. And you told him you love him. We talked about this.
Bob the Drag Queen
I didn't say I love you in the poem. That was.
Monet X Change
No, but you told him you love him the first time you met him.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, I did not.
Monet X Change
Jacob, am I making to tell me.
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
No, no, he absolutely said that.
Monet X Change
Thank you.
Bob the Drag Queen
I said I love you the first time.
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
Yeah, you said. You said. I. I know this might be crazy, but I think I'm falling in love with you.
Bob the Drag Queen
Jacob is lying. Jacob Bob.
Narrator/Advertiser
You.
Bob the Drag Queen
That's okay.
Monet X Change

Bob the Drag Queen

Jacob (Producer/Partner)
If you're trying to be. I'm sorry.
Monet X Change
If you.
Bob the Drag Queen
If you're.
Narrator/Advertiser
If you're.
Bob the Drag Queen
If you.
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
If you're not trying to be sweet, that's fine. If we don't.
Bob the Drag Queen
If we want to re.
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
Retell.
Monet X Change
Jacob, you are the whole podcast.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, Jacob is. First of all, Jacob is lying. Jacob's doing a bit. Jacob is doing a bit.
Monet X Change
There was a whole. I told you that.
Bob the Drag Queen
We started saying I love you very early. That's what I said. I did not tell you, Jacob, I love him until I was working at the Berkeley Repertory Theater. We've been dating for like a month, and we're in bed together. And then we both said, let's just go ahead and start saying I love you. It was not on the first night that I met Jacob that Jacob tell Monet. I didn't say that. So she didn't think I'm lying.
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
You're right. Okay, okay, baby, you're right. Yes. No.
Bob the Drag Queen
No.
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
It didn't happen.
Monet X Change
He's just pacifying you. I don't believe it. You said it the first night.
Bob the Drag Queen
Jacob is doing a bit. You know, Jacob loves a bit.
Monet X Change
I don't. I don't know. Jacob hates bits.
Bob the Drag Queen
So now you don't know Jacob. You do not. So Jacob been working on this podcast, working on this podcast, building it up. But you don't know anything about the producer of Sibling Rhyme. That's crazy.
Monet X Change
Jacob doesn't like that. He does not like Vince. So Jacob is telling the truth. Jacob, I believe you. I see you. I'm gag.
Jacob (Producer/Partner)
Thank you.
Bob the Drag Queen
Jacob, shut the hell up. We gotta go. Bye.

Hosts: Bob The Drag Queen & Monét X Change
In this lively episode of Sibling Rivalry, Bob The Drag Queen and Monét X Change dive into recent political upheaval—namely Vice President Kamala Harris becoming the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee. True to form, the hosts infuse the conversation with personal stories, witty banter, a passionate debate about water brands, and their unique queer lens on culture and politics. Alongside the Harris discussion, they touch on the generational shift in voter demographics, the nuances of public support, and, as always, drag queen logistics.
The tone is fast, irreverent, and packed with inside jokes, friendly shade, and playful bickering. The hosts straddle earnestness and irony—especially when dissecting the historical moment around Kamala Harris—offering both real talk and comedic escapes. Their dynamic is “loving rivalry," with regular digressions into drag world logistics, Black culture, queer community quirks, and pop culture minutiae.
This episode is a must for anyone wanting a distinctly queer, Black, comedic take on the seismic political shift of Kamala Harris’s nomination. The duo artfully layers political savvy and personal anecdotes with relentless humor, making the stakes feel both urgent and, somehow, a little less dire. Expect opinions on everything from bottled water to the future of American politics, all with the sparkling chemistry that’s defined Sibling Rivalry.
