B
My name is Bob the Drag Queen.
C
And I'm Monet X Change.
B
And this is simply rivalry.
C
On this episode, we push each other's pressure points.
B
I use the world's worst lotion.
C
And we find out what made Bob say this.
B
I would lick a car. And we found out what made Monet say this.
C
You are so fucking shady.
B
Baby. Where the hell is my co host? I want to say I am so sorry, y'.
C
All.
B
I.
C
They don't know.
B
I know, but, you know, I'm a transparent person. I Woke up at 10 o' clock this morning, which is normally when we're filming. That's when I woke up. I live 30 minutes away from here. So I woke up and, like, my alarm is going off. Jacob has this thing that he can do where he makes my phone ring no matter where in the world he is.
C
Really?
B
Yeah. It's usually. Usually because I'm like, my phone is in the house somewhere. I'm like, baby, can you make my phone ring? Like, it's like I'll, like, put it on a shelf and then, like, I'll be, like, listening to, like, a video or something, but walking around, and then I'll just turn it off and then I'll leave and I'll forget what shelf I put it on. So Jacob would make the phone ring and. And I also leave my phone in my car a lot. I do this all the time. I would be upstairs for, like, 30 minutes, like, oh, shit, my phone was in my car and I would just double Check. Can you make the phone ring? And I woke up, my phone was ringing. I fell asleep watching Pluribus last night.
C
Which is a great show.
B
Which is. Yeah.
C
No, I've not heard great things about Pluribus.
B
Really?
C
Yeah, I've heard it's not. I heard it's not.
B
Kane likes it. By the way, filling in for Jacob today we have Kane.
C
So, Kane.
B
So can you talk to them? Hello, Kane's. You like purpose, though?
C
Yeah.
B
Yeah. I mean, it's a. It's a tough watch, so.
C
It's a tough watch. But you like it?
B
I don't know what to say. It's a tough watch, but also I commit to shows like, I am gonna like. I will sit through. I won't. I've only walked out on one movie my entire life. One.
C
Which is what?
B
Tell us now, what's that movie? Love Simon.
C
What was wrong with Love Simon?
B
I just didn't like it. It wasn't for me. You don't like movies about high schoolers? Yeah.
C
Like, you didn't like Euphoria?
B
Yeah, I don't want to see high schoolers fucking addiction.
C
But they're not high schoolers. They're grown people.
B
I know. No, the characters are high schoolers.
C
Okay. Yeah, but, like, what about all the addiction stuff? To me, what I find most compelling about Euphoria is the addiction stuff. Like seeing, like, especially dating a sober person. They say, wow, this is like one of the most accurate depictions I've seen of so. Of drug addiction.
B
Wouldn't know. Didn't watch it. Also, I'm an alcoholic, not a crackhead. No. Shade to the crackheads watching.
C
I would tell them, by the way.
B
We use that language in aa, they're like, I'm a crackhead.
C
I want to say. So do you call yourself an alcoholic alcoholic or a recovering alcoholic alcoholic?
B
I'm an alcoholic.
C
Okay. Cause some sobers don't like that. I met some sobers that, like, they say, I'm a recovering alcoholic, not an alcoholic.
B
They're lame.
C
I mean, that's just what you. You can't fault.
B
I just have fought my opinion. My. Their opinion is they're recovering. And my opinion is that they're lying. Like the real alcoholic. We call ourselves alcoholics. Wouldn't you agree, Taylor? Yeah. You're like, we're alcoholics. Like, I'm an alcoholic. And that's so you. That's. That's to keep yourself humble so you don't try to get back in these streets. You have to remind yourself that you are an alcoholic. You're just not drinking. That doesn't mean that you don't have a problem with drinking. You just don't drink.
C
So if someone calls you a recovering alcoholic, you're like, no, I'm an alcoholic.
B
I would say I am an. I would. If I had to use that verb, I would say, I'm an alcoholic in recovery.
C
Got it.
B
And I would say there's a difference. Because a recovered alcoholic is like, you're not an alcoholic.
C
The recovering. Not recovered.
B
Okay, recovering alcoholic. Yeah, I'm an alcoholic in recovery. But I normally just say, I'm an alcoholic.
C
Got it?
B
Yeah.
C
What are some behaviors that you did when you were less fortunate, like, growing up that you will never change?
B
What makes you think I was not unfortunate growing up?
C
I'm from Clayton County, Monet. I know you think Clayton county is nice. Clayton county is bad girl.
B
I grew up. Clayton county is not a nice area. But I never thought I was unfortunate to grow up there. I'm very fortunate.
C
You said less fortunate. I was. I am definitely less fortunate. I mean, I'm more fortunate now than I was growing up. I'm too tired.
B
For me.
C
It's toothpaste. I will squeeze. I don't care if I am fucking if I am Bill Gates musk. Jeff Bezos. Tomorrow, I will use any. Every drop. I will squeeze and roll the toothpaste.
B
Until I get every little.
C
Little On. Out.
B
Out of.
C
Out of the tube every time.
B
I have so few memories of buying toothpaste. I feel like I'm never buying toothpaste.
C
Like, now. Can we smell it?
B
That's not true. That's just not true. Well, I fly, first of all. I get toothpaste at every hotel I go to.
C
Every hotel has toothpaste.
B
If you just gotta ask the front desk. Did you know that every hotel has a toothbrush and toothpaste? Did you know that?
C
I did. I mean, I worked in hotels. We all did, but.
B
So you've been there.
C
I know, but to go as far as asking for.
B
Why are you paying for toothpaste if you worked in a hotel? That's crazy. You were paying for toothpaste when you worked it on.
C
Because I'm not stealing from work, Bob.
B
It's not stealing.
C
It is stealing.
B
A couple in your pocket here, and there's toothpaste. You didn't think I'm a printer. You took home some toothpaste.
C
So all the people out there who steals the pencils from work, they're not stealing.
B
Unless you're stealing from your coworkers. If you take it from your co workers. That's stealing.
C
No, take it from the office stuff.
B
Well, okay, how many pencils? Let me be clear. For everyone in this office, it is stealing.
C
I'm about to say. Let me make.
B
Let me wake that up.
C
So you're the only one who steals from you. You literally stole a remote from the set yesterday.
B
I brought it back. I've had that for like a week.
C
You see? You were a thief.
B
Well, I found it in my bank. I was like. I was going through my bag. I was like, what is. Cause my purse is always just. I have to like once in one my purse. You ever try to. You don't carry a purse to zip it. And your shit's just so fucking full. I'm like, what is in this purse? At some point, stuff just got in this bag that does not need to be in this bag. So I'm like, let me do a quick cleanse. And I looked and I was like, oh my God, the remote from Silver. What the fuck is this doing in here? Well, full disclosure, can I tell you something?
C
What else did you just break and steal? What'd you do?
B
I shouldn't say anything.
C
No, you better say it.
B
I shouldn't say anything.
C
You have to say it now.
B
The other day this fell.
C
Oh, we know. Oh, and Rob said he did it. Was it you?
B
No, it was Rob. Why would Rob take the fall from me?
C
Cause you're on his payroll. I mean, you're on your payroll.
B
This fell. So we were testing. It was when it fell. And then we were testing it out, and then we were testing the remotes. And that was when I took it on. And then I think because it was just sitting there, I think maybe my phone was down there. Maybe I. Empty. I don't know what happened, but somehow the remote ended up in my purse.
C
Let me say something. I know everything that goes on here. Kennedy added me to the Google cameras thing. So I know when it fell. I texted Taylor about it. So I know everything that happens in this office. Baby, show me on your phone. No, I'm to show you, cuz you're going to try to take it off.
B
You're lying.
C
Just know that any behavior that you do here.
B
I don't think Kennedy's on the Google videos. She is. No, she's not. Me and Taylor, the only ones on the Google videos.
C
Anything that happens in this office, I know.
B
Okay.
C
Okay, so wait, so you don't.
B
So I don't buy toothpaste. I also cuz I fly when you fly. Delta 1, which is not that frequent. Only when I go to international New York, which actually I go to New York more than any other place I go to. They have toothpaste in there, but, girl, they're like, virginia. No, girl, they'll last you. Also, not only that, I had a roommate years ago who was like, looking at me brush my teeth, and she was like, why are you putting that much toothpaste on your toothbrush? I was doing it like they do in the commercials. I was doing, like the full. Like. I was doing, like, the commercial level.
C
Like you were for the fucking. Fucking Disney Channel.
B
You're remote full on. And then she was like. I remember. She was like, you actually don't need that much toothpaste. Your mouth will still be full of foam. Just use literally half that. And then I thought, okay. Then I use half. And I was like, oh, my God. So now I'm saving double on my toothpaste. This is. I've been doing Michelle. Michelle Roberts. Shout out to Michelle Roberts from Norway, who taught me that trick. I also used to use way too much deodorant. I used to use way too much.
C
Well, you use any now?
B
I don't really use the ordering now. I still use it, but one of these. I'm actually not an ex. I just don't like mine. Mine isn't one of those. Like, I mean, I do love the smell of. I like an armpit smell, but I'm not like. I'm not like, Patrick's is at another level.
C
No, I thought you don't do it because you don't want the aluminum. Whatever.
B
No, I just don't really care for it, to be honest.
C
Got it. Like, you don't care about the. You don't like the smell of deodorant?
B
I don't mind the smell of my body.
C
Got it.
B
But I will. But I will use it. Like, when I'm in drag, I use it every time I do drag. And if I go into, like, a professional setting, I'll use it. I use Native, actually, which is. They used to be a podcast.
C
Yeah. So native. Native. Come on back. Bob uses you.
B
Well, who's the other one who's sponsoring us now? I should put another name.
C
Does another deodorant brand sponsors us? I don't think so. We're not sponsored by any deodorant right now.
B
Okay, well, I still use Native, and I started using them for the pod, and then now I actually go buy Native, work at the Walgreens or the.
C
Cereal at the Weir. That's very important.
B
What. Where else would I buy it?
C
The Red Dot Boutique?
B
I don't go there.
C
Yeah, I don't go there.
B
I just don't go there anymore. They're suffering.
C
I did. I had to capitulate a little bit. I did go back to them one time recently because they do vaccines and.
B
I'm sorry, I get my vaccine for cvs.
C
The CVS up here.
B
You don't do.
C
It the one up here, do you?
B
No, I do it in Hollywood.
C
Yeah, they're awful. This CVS up here, they never have nothing. Anytime I prescription for something, I gotta go back three or four times. I just like, you know, I just can't. Anyway. Okay, so that for me, it's my lotion. When I finish the lotion.
B
Can we go back to you calling me unfortunate? My whole childhood unfortunate.
C
Okay, so are you less fortunate than your childhood now? I. I would say you're probably. Both of us are probably more fortunate.
B
Than growing up money now. But I am, I am as happy as I was.
C
It's not about happiness. But when you say like, oh, you.
B
Mean you like Fortune?
C
Yeah, I get like, no, that's the thing. When you say, oh, we're Fortune 500. We're giving, we're giving to the less fortunate. Like, that's the thing. It's. It's not about happiness. It's about like what you have until you're fortunate.
B
I'm gonna, I'm gonna be honest with you. I'm gonna keep it. I'm gonna be real. I'm not even gonna do a thing. Uhuh. Did you grow up unfortunate?
C
I grew up.
B
For real. For real.
C
I know I grew up middle class, but like, I think that this narrative you've sold on the podcast. I grew up as some rich kid with cell phone towers and I was like, this thing is crazy. It's not true. And what it is, you've said it so much, you've convinced yourself that that is my reality. That is not.
B
Did you ever have your power cut off?
C
No, we never had a power cut off.
B
Any eviction notices?
C
No, but car repos, but my mom in St. Lucia. We owned our house in St. Lucia and we owned the house in Brooklyn.
B
Anyway, multinational international properties is. I'm sorry, but every time.
C
These are two different houses, these are two different households.
B
I know. That's what makes it crazy.
C
Anyway, we need a lotion. When I finish my lotion, even to this day, when I finish a bottle of lotion, I will take a scissors, cut it open and scoop the lotion on both sides, because, y', all, there is so much lotion left in the bottle than when it just stops pumping out. When it starts pumping out, that's like half the lotion. You have a whole, like another two weeks of lotion usage inside of there. So.
B
No, I don't do that. I really am. I will take the cap off and I'll hit it with a.
C
You do that for a week after that, cut it open, you got another two weeks in there.
B
Well, the reason why I'm not doing that is because how are you. Cause you know your lotion can oxidize. Yeah, so. So it's hardening. So you gotta open the door.
C
What you do is when you cut it, you. You don't cut. You cut it like 90% of the way so it can flap open. When you go in there, get your thingy and put the flap back on. And then it's. It doesn't. It doesn't.
B
Apparently the lotion that I use is really not great lotion.
C
What? Oh, girl. We read it on a podcast, girl. There's like 87 degree ingredients in there.
B
Yeah, okay.
C
Use the cocoa butter one is the.
B
I also. Part of me is also like, honestly, I have. My skin is soft. People are constantly like, you have really soft skin. So like, that's probably a lot of genetics and DNA. So part of me is just like, I'm just going to keep using lotion. I use. And also this specific brand, it's Vaseline. I use Vaseline, which I feel like a lot of black folks just use Vaseline lotion brand lotion. You. They sell in a pot. So you don't have to do all that. You can just buy it in a pot with a.
A
Does it.
B
Yeah, they sell it in a pot.
C
The one you have in here, the.
B
Vaseline one, they also sell that in a pot.
C
I've never seen it in a pot.
B
They sell it. Nivea also sells it in a pot.
C
I know Nivea does.
B
So if you buy a pot, you don't have to do all this. All the. You don't have to do arts and crafts.
C
Well, I like cocoa butter and I like Eucerin. Eucerin, too. Also.
B
So they sell. Well, cocoa butter's not a brand.
C
No. Palmer's Palmers. Palmer's Cocoa butter Lotion. But Eucerin does the intensive repair, which. Have you ever used intensive repair?
B
I'm probably at some point, it's like.
C
Pasty, sticky, super hydrating, though. But you moisturize with that. You are Like a fucking slap Slytherin.
B
So apparently you know the kid. Apparently.
C
No, it's this little kid apparently.
B
So I've started using. For years now, I've been using the Aquaphor Big sticks. Oh yeah, they're going viral on Tick Tock now.
C
Why?
B
Some white girl at a party was caught on a picture using like using the, the, the, the, the big stick. And everyone thought it was so funny. And so then hydra her lips. Yeah, she's using, yeah, she's using like chopstick. And then folks are like, oh my God, you guys don't know about the aquafor Big Stick. And I was like, I. I mean I've been on the big stick for a long time.
C
This is what I'm talking about. Like when stuff like that goes crazy, I'm like, why? Why? Like there has to be some type.
B
I mean it is really good. I mean, I will say it is genuinely is great. Like I now buy it over. I don't buy Chapstick anymore. I now use the Aquaphor Big Stick pretty much across the board. It lasts you forever. And, and it is ointment. So you can use it under your eyes. You can use it on a scar. You can use it. Some people feel weird about rubbing their lip part on a different part of their body, but it doesn't bother me.
C
No, I'm saying, I agree with that. I'm just saying like how stuff like I was talking to one. I've said, I've said it here on the podcast before. When shit like that goes viral, it has to be some like the system like, like making. You know what I'm saying?
B
Like, I think it's two things. I think sometimes it is just a natural thing that happens because people think it's funny and then also kind of interesting. And then sometimes it is marketing. But also the truth is they fel found that like marketing can't actually replicate these natural viral moments as well as the real viral moments. Like marketing companies have been trying so hard to replicate viral moments, sometimes they just flop. But sometimes it does succeed. So it could be a thing from Aquaphor pushing it. You know what I mean? Hey, are you a germaphobe? You're not a germaphobe.
C
I'm not a. You know what, let's take a little break and then I'll take. I started keeping zbiotics pre alcohol on hand anytime I know drinks are on the table, whether it's dinner with friends at game night or just relaxing at Bob's studio. Because even when I Drink responsibly. I still wanna feel good the next morning. Plants don't stop just because you had a couple the night before.
B
And listen, I have these around for Monet because I've seen her. I've seen her hungover. And let me tell you right now, she's not the sunny beautiful. She's not the sunny queen she normally is. Listen, here's what makes it worth using Zbiotics Pre Alcohol probiotic drink is the world's first genetically engineered probiotic. It was invented by PhD scientists to tackle rough mornings after drinking. Here's how it works. When you drink, alcohol gets converted into a toxic byproduct in the gut. It's a buildup of this product, not dehydration, that's responsible for feeling off the next day. Pre alcohol produces an enzyme that breaks that byproduct down. Just remember, make pre alcohol your first drink of the night. Drink responsibly and you'll feel your best tomorrow. And she looked stunning. She was ready, she was lively, and she was lovely.
C
I first tried zebiotics before heading off for a friend's birthday. One drink in, I was skeptical, but I followed the directions, made it my first drink. And the next day I was up early at the gym and actually productive. No drag, no sluggish start, just back to basics. This isn't about drinking more. It's about showing up for what's next. That's why I keep a few bottles around, just in case the moment strikes.
B
Everyone is not about drinking more.
C
I know.
B
Because you acted out at Jacob's remitzvah. Now make the most of every toast this holiday season. Just don't forget to bring pre alcohol along for the ride. Go to zbiotics.com rivalry to learn more and get 50% off your first order. When you use rivalry at checkout, Zebiotics is back with 100% money back guarantee. So if you're unsatisfied for any reason, they'll refund your money, no questions asked. Remember to head to zebiotics.com rivalry and use code RIVALRY at checkout for 15% off. So are you a germaphobe?
C
No.
B
I'm not either.
C
I mean, okay, I'm not a germaphobe. Like, I'm hyper aware of like everything I'm touching and blah, blah, blah. But like in like the general, like just everyday sense, like, I'm conscious. Like, if food falls on the floor outside, I'm probably not gonna pick it up and eat it.
B
I would say I'm not a germaphobe. But I would say, like, for a bit, I would lick a car. Like, for a bit. If I thought. If I thought I would get some sort of a. If I thought it would merit the moment or get a laugh or do a thing or be some shock, I would. I would. I would lick a car.
C
Okay. What? See, but there's. There's a levels to car. Just a car that recently got clean or car that is covered in dirt, soot. It. It.
B
It.
A
It.
C
It just came from racing the fucking.
B
A standard car.
C
Okay. Just a standard car.
B
Like, I would lick my car, or I would lick your car or Taylor's car.
C
Yeah, that I could see.
B
But I would. Now, where I would draw the line.
C
I wouldn't lick a tire.
B
No, I wouldn't lick a tire. But I. For a bit, no. But I wouldn't lick the handlebar of a lime scooter. I would not do that.
C
Andy puts his phone, you know, in the seat back. Like, when you're on a plane, you had the big flap, and on Delta, they have the little one that you can like. Like the smaller little flap.
B
Mm.
C
And he puts his phone in there, like, the talking part in. At the bottom of it. And he will put his phone in there for the duration of a flight. Would you do that?
B
Yeah.
C
I think that's so nasty.
B
Oh, that doesn't bother me. But the other day, I was in a hotel room, and I am dating a recovering germaphobe. And I'm gonna tell y', all, it's tough. It's tough.
C
Recovering.
B
Yeah. He's not, like. He's not, like, deep in his germaphobia like he used to be, apparently, before we met. But, like, we were on the bed just, like, watching tv. And then he. Before anybody, he goes, wait, none of these pillows fell on the floor, did they? And I was like, no, he was like. Like he was ready to expel the pillows. Like, if a pillow fell on the floor, you would still pick it up and put it behind your head, right?
C
Yeah, I would.
B
Like, your pillow just rolls to the floor.
C
Yeah, I put on my foot.
B
Yeah, girl, it's not a big deal.
C
Yeah, but you.
B
But you do recon in the. In the hotel rooms.
C
I mean, I'm not, like, taking a black light, but.
B
No, you said you was, like, checking and flipping if there's one.
C
Like, if. Like, recently I was in Buffalo, New York, I was doing stand up there. And the first hotel we checked into for walking in, I was like, red flags everywhere, right? I could like, tell, like, Give me some red flags.
B
What should we be looking for?
C
Behind the front desk by the. They had a little like, oh, you.
B
Haven'T made your room yet.
C
Exactly. At check in by the desk, they had like a. Like a little thing, like. Cause breakfast is over. They had a little assortment of, like, fruits and little pastries and stuff. Next to it was a open, wet mop bucket with a handle resting against the breakfast thing.
B
Okay, that's crazy.
C
Red flag.
B
That's crazy.
C
Get into the elevator. There was a pungent smell of the restaurant attached to the hotel. And a sign for the restaurant saying.
B
Hey, what do you mean pungent? What does the restaurant smell like? Blue cheese. It smell like a restaurant. Like fried food. Roach is in the cereal. Like, what was it? It was.
C
It just. You could smell, like the oil, like the grease from the restaurant. Like in the lobby, like in the. In the. In the elevator. Then I get off the elevator, walk to my room. My room smells of this. Of this. Of this fried food. Red flag. You look at the baseboard in the. In the hotel room, they have, like, soils. Like the wallpaper is peeling a little bit. It's like yellow at the baseboard.
B
Yes. Okay. See, I would. The smell wouldn't. I wouldn't have caught. I have a terrible sense of smell. So I would never call the smell. I would have been like, look at this mop bucket. Next.
C
This is.
B
I would have been like, the mop bucket is wild.
C
It's crazy.
B
You can't leave a mop bucket unattended.
C
You cannot. And then the last straw was in the bathroom also.
B
Mop buckets. Mops smell bad. They smell mildewy and they're by the cereal.
C
Roaches in the cereal.
B
Roaches in the cereal. Which is crazy because you guys know that, like, there are companies that will take your mop head. So there are mops that, like, clamp on and there are mops that are stuck on. There are companies that will take your mop head with your laundry if you have a. If you run a big business and wash them and bring them back so that you. But a lot of times your mop. But your mop head is never drying.
C
It's just always wet.
B
It's always wet. Which is why. Which is why your mop smells like that. So when someone mops the floor, it just smells like mildewy. Yeah, because the mop is never drying.
C
Yeah. And then the last straw was in the bathroom. I always check this. I open up a towel. Open up the towel and put it to light. When you can see through lots of parts of the towel, which means they've been washed so many times the towels are not replaced. And they're like shitty, like flimsy towels.
B
But. But they're clean.
C
Yeah, but they, but they don't.
B
Is this a clean test or. Or a quality test?
C
A quality test. They don't change. They don't change the tones.
B
Talk about. No, but they are washing them often.
C
Yeah, but the quality of the towel has degraded. So now you try to dry with this towel. Bitch. You're basically just touching yourself because it's so, it's so paper thin now.
B
That thin. Touching yourself is wild.
C
You're touching yourself.
B
I will rub a dry, hardened towel across my body. Wanted to exfoliate you for one also. It's clean.
C
No, I don't like that feeling. So I literally promptly was like, I have to go. And I went to another hotel down.
B
The street because the towels were too clean.
C
And the other things I said, I just ignored everything, literally.
B
I stayed in some crazy hotels during we're here. I really had to.
C
I told me this too.
B
I really had to. Because I don't normally stay in. I mean I normally when I travel I stay in like either I would say really nice mid level hotels or just mid level hotels. But I'm never, I'm. I'm not at like the Chateau Marmont, which I think is a restaurant.
C
Yeah.
B
I'm not at like the Four Seasons. The Four Seasons.
C
Oh, the four season hours. They're. They're like high mid range now.
B
I would be like if I go to New York City, I'll be.
C
You're not at the Plaza Hotel?
B
Yeah, no, I'll be at like the Virgin or I would say anywhere between like a, like a. What do you call it? A Hilton extended stay or maybe days in. Up to like is days in Bad girl.
C
I'm not saying that. Nothing calling in anymore at 35. I'm not doing it. I'm not doing it on group trips, friendships. I'm not staying at an inn anymore.
B
Well, I'll go to a day's inn.
C
Because there's nothing of quality at the inn. That's just an oxymoron.
B
Well, I don't. I can't remember if last time I was at a Quality Inn. I mean I think I was at a Quality Inn. Well, when I go to visit my aunt Hazel, the closest hotel nearby is I think a Quality Inn. But anyway, so I. Or. And probably the most expensive hotel I would go to might be like the Virgin.
C
It's expensive.
B
I can't go New York.
C
Hotels are insane. I went to. I had to go to New York. You know this. For 24 hours for this audition thing. And bitch, like, at that point, Virgin was giving $1,200 a night.
B
That's crazy.
C
It was crazy.
B
I wouldn't stay there.
C
It's crazy.
B
I think I would have started staying on Nick's couch when I go to New York.
C
I told you we should have got that place in New York. We still can.
B
Yeah, we probably should. You know, I can.
C
I. I hate when you do that.
B
What? Spit it out. I don't think I want to say it.
C
You have to say it.
B
Well, I want to be clear. The reason why we didn't get place in New York. Because you were trying to buy a home in New York. And I'm not looking to do that. But I did make a proposal to Nick to rent a place in New York.
C
You are so fucking shady.
B
But he turned me down. He said no.
C
You're so shady.
B
Well, I don't think it's that shady. Because you wanted to. You wanted to. You wanted to. You was over here like a. Like a wealthy land baron. You thought I was. You thought I was fucking Jackie with my cell phone tower, about to buy a place I can't afford to buy.
C
How much you counted? Be like, okay, Monet, let's not buy this place, let's rent this place together. You could also say that.
B
Well, I also tried to get a place in la, and you said no to me. So you've already turned. You've already turned me down.
C
Okay? LA and New York. Okay, now you are. You. You can't. That's not the same thing.
B
You already turned me down.
C
Saying, let's get a place in LA is not the same as let's get a place in New York and then turning around behind my back try to.
B
Get a place behind your back. There was no secret.
C
It was a secret.
B
Every time I communicate with Nick, it's not behind your back.
C
It was behind my back.
B
But I think behind your behind your back insinuates that it's about you.
C
It is about me. No, it's because when you were going to do this thing with Nick, you.
B
Could buy a home. I mean, I couldn't afford to buy a home. I was investing in my, My, my. My career.
C
Okay, then you could. But when you, you know, when you talk to Nick about getting a place together, a little far. Your head was like, Monet might have feelings about this.
B
Actually, not until this Very second. Cause I was like, oh, maybe. But what happens? I was told, nick, we should get a place because I'm not gonna be here very often. But then I will actually have a place to live in New York City and I won't have to like. Cause I must have spent more than my mortgage on rent on hotels in New York City.
C
100% easily same.
B
And I was like, we should get a place. And the. Nick was like. And I was like, this is the best deal for you. You get. You get to have. You get to live in a bigger home. And you barely have a roommate. Ow. When I met Nick, he had like fucking five roommates. Now he's too good for one. Oh, does one podcast with Mateo, performs at Radio City Music hall one time.
C
Go.
B
Opens at Carnegie one time. Does the Chicago theater one time. And now she's too good for me. When you. When you used to slum it up with 18 roommates, you didn't even know. Wow. Fake. For some people, fame has really changed Nick Smith. And honestly, everyone go to Nick Smith page right into that Nick Smith09 and let him know how we feel.
C
Yeah. Also Nick, change that name. That Nick Smith09. What an awful Instagram name. Change it.
B
What should it be, girl? His name is Nick Smith. Someone's got it already.
C
I mean, Nick is a comedian.
B
It's not Kevin Akeem.
C
He can think about something else. That's good. Nick Smith 09. What in the fucking AA. OK.
B
I spelled your middle name the other day and I was like, I could do this.
C
Can you spell it?
B
Yeah, A K, E, E, M. And I was like, yeah, I nailed it. No, that is literally. It's not. Can't bring it up.
C
It's not accurate.
B
Can't bring it up.
C
The incident is wrong. I'll show you my passport.
B
Show me. Not the doctor. Not the doctor's footage.
C
Thorgy just text.
B
Oh, Thorgy just text you.
C
Yes, but in something else.
B
What do you mean something else? Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. What the fuck is this for?
C
Sound.
B
A K, E, M. That's incorrect. What? Is there some accent over the.
C
No, that's not.
B
No, there's an accent over the. One of the E's and the UMLA over the M or some shit. What?
C
That's incorrect.
B
Why is it this?
C
What do you mean, why is it this? That's how you spell my name.
B
A K, E, a M. Yeah. Ikea. That sounds Jamaican. Ikea, Kevin. Ikea.
C
Actually, it was a typhoon. So what happened was, when I got my passport in 2000, whatever it was. All the passport plays. They thought it was an A. Instead of. They thought it was. It's supposed to be Eem. The passport place thought it was an A. So I just have. My. My middle name has just changed.
B
So your driver license and your password have different middle names?
C
No. Now it's because I moved to la, so now it's all just Eam.
B
So when did you. When did you. Oh, my God. When did you get your name legally changed?
C
Like 2000 something.
B
That's because I was right. You tried to Gaslight.
C
It's not Gaslighting, because this is the truth now.
B
How does your mom feel about this? I don't know. Because Jackie didn't name. Didn't name you, though.
C
No, she didn't. No.
B
So you don't really care what your mom thinks?
C
I do.
B
Oh.
C
Oh, my God.
B
Are we softening?
C
No.
B
Do we love her now? We love her.
C
I was gonna ask you this. Wait, it's about water. I said something about water.
B
I think that you should have a cup here, even if you're not drinking proper.
C
Why?
B
Aesthetically. Y', all. Can we talk y' all about this? We have been. This little thing is so controversial here because I. It belongs on the bookshelf in the library, which is where I film my show, the Big question. So you'll see it there, and it fits there. I don't really think it fits here, to be honest. I don't. But we like. You gotta have something on the tables, and so we just grabbed it.
C
Is there something else we want to put there?
B
I don't know what else could possibly go. I have this. I have my clown.
C
Oh, God, no clowns.
B
I have that pyramid that. That. I have that porcelain pyramid. We should bring them over so they can see what we're talking about, because they do not like when we mention things that they can't see. Y' all love when Taylor little skinny ass walk by for three seconds. So this clown. This. This collection of clowns on the clown car is up for option. It says it's. It's the. The. It's from the Manella. The Marella collection. So I want y' all to. So I want y' all to. I want y' all to weigh in on what we think should be here. So we're gonna start with this clown.
C
From the Morella question.
B
I think this might. Okay, now a candelabra. Now we have a candelabra. Be our guest, honey. So now we have the candelabra. In here.
C
That's ridiculous.
B
This is giving Phantom of the Opera in sleep. She sang to me. Sing with me.
C
I don't know how.
B
That you know this song.
C
I really do.
B
Everyone knows this song.
C
I don't.
B
Well, pick it up when you learn it. That voice which calls to me and speaks my name. Your spirit and your voice is one direction. The Phantom of the Opera is near inside your mind. Well, the thing is, that's actually Christine's part. Christine's part is actually pretty low for a lady. And then. Then. Okay, so now moving on from our Phantom of the Opera candelabra.
C
Oh, my God.
B
We have my Peabody Award. Okay, this is my Peabody Award. Thoughts on the Peabody, y'. All. We need y' all to weigh in. What are your thoughts on the Peabody?
C
No.
B
Is it because it's not our Peabody?
C
No. It just seems strange to have an award just on a table, even if.
B
It was one of our awards.
C
I am proud of you, but not to have it here.
B
Put my shit down, bitch. Oh, that's from University of. Okay, we have a bust.
C
No, this looks like.
B
Who could this be in the drag world? Who got little titties? Plastique got little titties.
C
Yeah, Plastique.
B
Aquaria got little titties.
C
A little hefty for plastique.
B
Yeah, it's a little thick. Yeah, it's a little thick in the waist for them. Who's got little titties. But. Okay, let's not do that. Okay. We have a 3D printed Jacob. Was it really his 3D printing era? A 3D printed Bob the Drag Queen from season eight? What if there's a leg? There's nothing wrong with her leg.
C
Oh, from this angle, look like her leg broke.
B
No. So there we could do. What if there's one of me and one of you?
C
No, I think that's weird.
B
What are you doing in your season 8? Is your season 10 promo? How are you posing?
C
I'm like, down like this. Oh, my God. Like that?
B
Yeah, with one leg up. So we have 3D prints version of me and you sitting here. Imagine y' all season eight Bob and then season ten. Monet.
C
No, I think it should be a vod. You know what? Let's take a break and I'll give you my honest opinions about this motherfucking thing.

So are we not, like, confused? I mean, obviously I know, because the calendar is like, there's some yik yak explanation about why October is not the eighth month, probably why September is not the ninth month, the seventh month.
C
Yeah, something.
B
And December is not the tenth.
C
Yeah. I don't know. It's probably something with.
B
And we're supposed to just be like. Sure. We're supposed to just accept that. We're supposed to just, like, live through that.
C
Do you want us to change it?
B
Bitch?
C
We can't even handle stopping daylight saving time. You think you can change the months?
B
I want to get back to this. If you had a cup here, it would balance it out. Even if you're not drinking. Can we fly in a cup here? I think we need a. I think we need. I think we need a. Ms. Pat.
C
And I wanted to drink. Ms. Pat and I wanted to use y' all straw. It was so funny.
B
She said, I don't want to use. I said. I said, every cup is a used cup. You go to people's house and bring brand new cups.
C
She's like, yeah, but. Yeah, but y' all got me sucking on the straw. I don't know. I don't know who was sucking on the straw before me.
B
Now look, see, look how nice that looks. There it is.
C
This is an Exchange Rate cup, honey. This is from the legendary iconic Exchange Rate. A fan did this. They just sent it to the studio. They're like, I love Monet so much. I wanna. This is my Exchange Rate logo.
B
Did you love that fan for doing that? Did you appreciate that?
C
I loved her.
B
Which fan did it?
C
Somebody was Sarah, I think. Sarah.
B
If you made this cover, your name's Sarah. We need the person who made this cup, please DM me right now on Instagram. Cause Monet's lying.
C
No, I really think her name was Sarah.
B
Sarah.
C
This is so long ago. Sarah from Long Island. Another thing that I would do. Oh. Growing up, is that in Brooklyn, we did not put the heat on until December 1st. No matter. It could have been negative 20 degrees outside the heat. Cause you know in New York you have to like, shift from, like, put the boiler on, otherwise it's off and then it goes on. So we would. So I remember sometimes in November being so cold in the house, wearing full sweats, coats inside. Cause it was so cold.
B
Well, I never lived in a house in New York City, but I did not have the option of when my heat turned on the building? No. In New York. No.
C
As a kid.
B
I'm saying I'm gonna get to that. But my New York experience, because I didn't live, I was less fortunate. The building decided when the heat turned off.
C
No.
B
Well, the city decided.
C
What is it? The city in New York City.
B
The city.
C
They have to put it on by, I think October 15th.
B
So my heat just turned on when the. And by the way, y', all, in New York City, depending on your building, you cannot turn it off. If you are. They will. They will hot box the fuck like you. I remember it being so hot that.
C
I had to some of my ex. He's like hot buck.
B
The fuck did you. What the fuck was that?
C
They would hot. The fuck do you.
B
What did I sound like? I don't know what the fuck that was. He was like parappa to rapper for papa. Oh, my God. Kick. It's all in your mind if you want to test me I'm sure you're fine so to see you we're going to teach you nevertheless she get a lesson from teacher now Kick. Kick Punch.
C
Such a great game.
B
But what I'm getting at is it was so hot that you would have.
C
To open your window.
B
Open my windows. And there's snow by the inside. Because you. Y', all, you. And by the way, you. The building so old. That's the knob. Either the super or someone has removed the knob from your radiator. So you actually can't turn it down.
C
Yeah, it is hot.
B
It is just hot. Every apartment I've ever lived in New York City. I was never in control of the heat, ever.
C
Yeah, same. I was never in control of the heat, too.
B
I was just in there being like. But for the most part, the one I lived in, Ozone park, was way too hot. And it was actually a very cold winter. It was just way, way too hot.
C
So you'd be just in your apartment, it's snowing, just windows open, trying to get some cool relief.
B
Yes.
C
That's crazy.
B
Um, no, we turned our air on when it got hot, and we turned the heat on when it got cold.
C
We.
B
We were. We were not rationing, so, like.
C
Okay, but was. It was the ac. Was the electricity. Did you pay separately for electricity?
B
I mean, I don't know. I was a kid, so you ever.
C
Heard your mom talking about, like, don't. Don't. Like, don't. Don't run up my electricity bill? That wasn't the thing.
B
Uh, maybe.
C
I feel like every kid's parents were like, y' all are Running up my bill, you know, if your parent paid an electricity bill.
B
And I remember my mom being really adamant about closing. Well, we had to close our door because we had a runner. Our dog was a track star.
C
Grizzly.
B
Grizzly. So it wasn't just about the. I mean, air conditioning in the neighborhood is not just about the bill. It's about keeping the actual. The home cool. Cause if you open the door, it just gets hot so fast. Cause in Georgia, it gets really, really hot. It's over 100 degrees, like, probably 30 days out of the summer sometime.
C
Yeah.
B
So you open the door, the whole room just gets. The whole apartment would just get so hot. So.
C
Right.
B
I lived in, when I lived in Alabama and that house, it was. I remember it was so hot. We can cook an egg on the street.
C
It was so hot outside, like, literally.
B
Literally. Did you do it? Yes, we did. Yes, we did. Yes, we did. I used to run around barefoot and.
C
Are your feet soft now?
B
No.
C
No, right?
B
No, not even close.
C
I think that's why my feet are hard, because I was barefoot all the time as a kid.
B
I think it's genetics.
C
I think it's genetics, too, but. No, you really. Well, I think it's a combo.
B
You really gave up on yourself because.
C
It can't be because your hands are very soft. So Andy has soft feet and soft hands because. I think it's genetic because Andy has very soft hands and feet. I mean, he has, like.
B
If you could. If I had never met Andy, you could convince me of that. Andy has big Fred Flintstone feet, but.
C
His feet are very soft.
B
I've never touched his feet, but I would tell you this. His hands are absolutely soft.
C
I mean, the pressure points here were like, where you get them, but like this. It is a pressure point when you're lifting.
B
I don't know if that's what a pressure point is.
C
It's a point that gets a lot of pressure.
B
I don't think that's what a pressure point is, man.
C
Yes. Can we look up the definition of pressure point?
B
Kane Kind pressure points are like points where your veins and stuff collect and you can use them to relieve. I don't think that.
C
Pressure points on your hands.
B
What's the definite pressure point? Zoom in. Any of several parts in the body in which an underlying artery can be pressed against a bone to stop distill. Distilled bleeding and.
C
Oh, don't stop there. Number two, baby.
B
An area in the skin that is highly sensitive to the application of pressure.
C
Exactly.
B
So when you Monet, that's not.
C
This is sensitive to pressure.
B
You are saying it is a place that gets a lot of pressure. This is a place that is sensitive to. You're saying any. Any point on your body that gets a lot of pressure. So. So when I lay down and the blanket's on the whole. My whole body is a pressure point because of getting even pressure. No, no. You're trying to say that it is a place that just gets pressure. It is an area on the skin that is highly sensitive to the application of pressure.
C
This is sensitive pressure.
B
This monat. This is literally the toughest part of your hand. This is the. This is sensitive. This is literally the most tough part of. Especially your ragged, rough, drying pan, gnarled fingers. This is literally the. This is everyone's roughest part of your hand.
C
It's not every.
B
Yes.
C
No, it's not.
B
Stop trying.
C
It's not.
B
Oh, yes, it is. Yes, it is. Yes, it is. I came in, I was like, I'm gonna be nice today. And you. Hear, hear.
C
It's me.
B
It's me. Give me your hands. Give me your hands. This is the roughest part of your hands. This part is softer, and this part is rougher. But.
C
What. But it's not sensitive. This is not more sensitive.
B
Yes, it is.
C
No, it'. Yeah.
B
Yes. So, no, we're not moving on from this. The softer part is more sensitive.
C
I don't. Not to me.
B
So. Okay, Taylor, go get a safety pin. Go get a safety pin. We're gonna find out.
C
No, but I've also calcified them.
B
No, we're gonna fucking find out.
C
No, I've calcified those areas.
B
So you're. So. Which means it's less sensitive yet now.
C
But they all started off at the same sensitivity.
B
They did not. Yes.
C
Okay, so you're saying, growing up, this part of your hand was more sensitive than this part.
B
Renee, the skin on your body comes at different levels of thickness, and this is across the board.
C
Correct.
B
For example, your eyelids. It is the thinnest skin on your body.
C
Correct.
B
Your heels. This is the thickest skin on your body.
C
Correct.
B
So this part of your body is. Because it's designed to. When you pick it up, it's designed to come in contact. The skin there is going to be thicker because just like on your foot, the heel is thicker than the side of your foot. So, yes, your skin is thicker at different spots of your body.
C
Can we. Can we look up? Kane, what is the most.
B
Give me your hands.
C
What is the most sensitive part of your hand?
B
So you're Telling me, lean over, nigga. This.
C
Ow. It hurts.
B
It couldn't even fucking penetrate.
C
That does hurt, bitch. That does hurt.
B
The safety pin is bent. Y', all, look what?
C
Look.
B
Y' all, look what? Monet, I skin. Shit. Shut the fuck up. The most sensitive part of your hand is the back of your hand. This is the most sensitive part of your hand.
C
The most sensitive part of your hand is simply the fingertips, which have high concentration of nerve endings that allow you to find touch discrimination this sensitive. So this is not the most sensitive.
B
Part of your hand? Well, no. Okay.
C
This is. What?
B
You said it's more sensitive. Okay, No, I said it's more sensitive. No, that.
C
There's no. Think about that. This is part.
B
All you're doing is proving my point, which is that the thickness of your skin, the sensitivity is all different way. Hold on. It's all. You don't. You're not all. It's not created with the same level of sensitivity, which would mean since this part is sensitive, your fingertips would be a pressure point. Your fingertips are the sensitive part because it's. Because the pressure point is an area that is sensitive to touch. So your fingertips would be a pressure point and.
C
Right. And I'm saying the reason why this is thicker. This was not always thick. This has become thick over years of lifting.
B
It's not a pressure point, though.
C
But. But. So this. But before this hair was the same sensitivity as this.
B
But it doesn't work that way because your fingertips come in contact with more things than whatever. This part. I don't even know what this part of your hand's called. Correct. The back of your knuckles.
C
Yeah.
B
This is your front of your knuckles. This is the back of your knuckles. Yeah, but this skin hardens, is made to do that. Even though your fingertips come into contact with more stuff, they have not hardened because they're sensitive, because they're pressure points.
C
No, I've met people who have. Like Natalie Anderson.
B
You and your. Your anecdotal reference.
C
Natalie Anderson, who is a CrossFit person who does a lot of weights and lifting like she is crossfit down. Shout out to Natalie. I fucking love Natalie. She has calluses here.
B
So you gonna call her Natalie's rough ass hands.
C
I mean, Natalie's not.
B
You're spilling Natalie's teeth.
C
Natalie's literally on the Internet grabbing fucking bulldoz with her hands.
B
She want people to know that her fingertips are rough.
C
So this has callous because.
B
Apologize to her for exposing her rough fingertips.
C
This has kalisp. Over time because of how she. Her Fingertips have calloused because of how she uses and lifts weights with them. That's just how the. That's how the body works is a natural defense.
B
But it doesn't change that your fingertips are pressure points and not this part.
C
You and I have met drag queens who have calluses. You and I, probably our whole bottom of our foot.
B
Speak for yourself. Don't you and I ty me the.
C
Whole bottom of our feet because of how hard we were on them as children and drag.
B
The bottom of my feet are not callous, to be clear.
C
You said they are.
B
I said my feet aren't soft.
C
So what? So. So if it's not soft, it's not hard. What is it?
B
It doesn't. You don't go, what is it? But it doesn't go straight from soft to callous. So what is it now? Give us.
C
Give us. Describe it for us.
B
It just like. Like, my feet dry really quick. Like, for that, my hands really retain moisture well. And, like, I don't. I have to do a ton of moisturizing, although I do. And my feet, when I put lotion on it just. It eats it up, and then it's dry again in a few seconds. My feet just do not retain moisture well. They're dry. And sometimes they will, like, be, like, a little flaky. Like, the skin will peel, but they're not calloused. I do have a few calluses on my hands.
C
Let me see.
B
Not. They're very small.
C
Where?
B
Right in the. Oh, yeah. I have, like, a little callus here.
C
Damn.
B
I know. I. I know. You just cut me. I know the iron claw is not talking. I know the iron claw.
C
Those gauntlets, you guys. Honey, gauntlets.
B
A slap.
C
A hoe. I was just saying the other day, if I ever get into a fight, I want to be able to land the only slap on a bitch.
B
I have been thinking a lot about fighting, and I don't want to be in one.
C
I want to slap somebody really hard.
B
How hard you want to slap them?
C
Like, just. I want to be. I want it to be a disrespectful slap. I want to be like, we arguing. Like, oh, my God. I want to. Like a slap. Just a pow.
B
That would slap a motherfucker. I think a slap is a. What do you call it?
C
Oh, yes. Thank you, Kane.
B
A slap is a. Like, it's not going to end the fight. It's just going to aggravate, like, a slap. Like, if you slap someone, you are preparing to fight, whereas, so you want to. You want to throw the first slap.
C
Yes. I want to be so pissed off that I slap somebody first. So Kane just brought it.
B
What do you call it when you irritate, aggravate, escalate. Will just agitate and, like, get a fight going.
C
Yeah.
B
You would you do these then.
C
Okay, you have.
B
You have your. You have your play.
A
You don't.
B
You can go up and argue. You can be. You can start with me on the phone and then get mad and go up and slap somebody.
C
So I've seen. Kane just pulled up. I've seen this all over TikTok. I'm obsessed. They're basically slapping competitions. But do you win money for these?
B
Yeah, of course. You're paid to do them. You're probably paid to do them, and then you win more money if you win. I'm assuming the way these people are.
C
Slapping each other, it is insane. When they slap each other, there are clouds of smoke. People are knocked chalk.
B
They're not slapping them on fire.
C
But sometimes you see spider bit sometimes. I've seen someone lose a tooth on there before.
B
I saw one time they slapped a woman and she changed races. I'm not kidding. Do slap. Woman changes. Changes races.
C
What do you mean? She change races.
B
You're about to see right now. And then we're going to send it to Jay. He slapped a woman. No, a woman. This is the one in the front. This woman got slapped and she changed races. Click it all the way. Click it. She's Asian. She's white. All right, pause it, y'. All. She was Asian when they started, and she slapped the Asian right out of her body. She's white and she's white now.
C
That is crazy.
B
That's. That's.
C
She literally changed races.
B
Maybe that's what happened to Richard Dojo. Richard's white. And then she got all the white guys slapped out of her. She evolved.
C
So back to what I was saying. Andi has soft hands.
B
It does not like.
C
Besides where you have. Where you're.
B
Besides all the rough spots.
C
Besides where you have your callus minus.
B
All the rough spots.
C
Andy, like, his fingers are soft. This is.
B
That's like saying this toast isn't burnt if you just knock off all the burnt pieces. This toast is not burnt.
C
When I used to burn toast, I used to do.
B
Have you touched. Has anyone here touched Andy's hand? Damn.
C
It's so rude when I go. My mom used to hate when I would burn toast because she hate. She would hate the smell of burnt toast in the house, which is so crazy. So I would have to. When I would burn my toast, I wouldn't want to waste the bread. So I would take my knife. Do you ever do this and scrape all the, all the burn off?
B
Yeah. I mean, no, I wasn't. Well, okay, I will say this. It's pretty hard to burn toast. You just got to.
C
It's hard to burn toast. Has anyone ever burned toast before? Thank you. We've all done it.
B
But if you, if you just don't change, if you just don't change the settings on your toaster. Because we weren't toasting multiple kinds of bread again in Georgia. We don't have, we don't have bagels. So there's no bagels going in there. There's no croissants going in there. You don't put a biscuit in there. Only thing going in is white bread. That's the only thing going in. So you just said it.
C
Yeah. You would like white bread.
B
I do like white bread instead of brown bread. What is brown bread?
C
Wheat.
B
Oh, wheat bread. So I put my bread in there and we, we never changed the setting, so we weren't. I wasn't burning. Although I will say one time in the Delta Lounge, I started a fire. Me. Oh, my God, me too.
C
I tried, I tried to toast a croissant.
B
Girl, I started a fire. Fire. I gagged. I was like, they're all changing the setting because there's all these different kinds of bread there. And girl, I, I, I'm waiting for. It was. So there's, there's two toasters. You'll find. They'll find the regular pop up toaster.
C
Brandishing this weapon around.
B
I know you're not talking. You tried to literally stab me with a Sharuk in the video. A gift that I gave you. There's two toasters, the regular standard pop up toaster. And then there's this thing you put it in and it's like a conveyor belt. Not a conveyor belt, kind of. And then it comes out of the bottom, baby. It came out on fire. And I was like panicking.
C
Was it the bread you tried to put in there or.
B
It was the bread I put a croissant in.
C
Right. Girl, you're not supposed to do that except you see, you're a good citizen. I put it in there. I put in a, I cut mine, put it in a regular toaster. It started to light up in the thing and I just walked away.
B
I was like, I don't want to.
C
Be, I don't want to be. Gilly held Liable for starting a party.
B
So what happened?
C
Oh, no, the lounge is still there. So I assume somebody found it.
B
Whatever was this? I'm going to say, why you're trying.
C
To get me in trouble with Delta.
B
You trying to burn the building down?
C
I'm trying to burn the building down.
B
They caught it, but the airport is crazy.
C
I was like, what if I get in trouble? So I just walked away.
B
I will say when mine caught fire, I stood and I pulled it out and I was like. And the lady came by like, she was like, girls. She was basically like, yet another one. Another fire at the toaster.
C
You know, there's a. You know, there are a few Delta Delta lounges that have real bacon. So Patty and I, one time, this is when Patty was still on the road. This was probably two years ago. We're at Newark Airport and we never fly in and out of Newark.
B
Who goes to Newark?
C
I forgot whatever reason we were doing in Newark for whatever reason. So we're there and it was one of those mornings. It was like a. Like a. The end of like a four day trip, you know, Morning, night, morning, night, morning, night. So getting to Newark, they had just put in the Delta Airport Delta Lounge there. And I walked in the airport, Patty, I was like, I don't want to go to the lounge. I can find breakfast somewhere else. I walked into the Delta Lounge, walked to the breakfast thing and they had real bacon. So I texted Patty and I said, girl, real bacon Patty through the wall.
B
Like the Kool Aid man. Oh, yeah.
C
Patty came. And this is no exaggeration. We both had tears in our eyes and it was real bacon at the Delta Lo in Newark because it was just. We just wanted real vacant.
B
The place that have great the Delta Lounges. I should do a full review one day on my YouTube page. I would do a review of. Of as many Delta lounges as possible. Y' all the best one.
C
Say it on three.
B
Wait, let me get it in my head because there's two that are both really good.
C
I am curious, but we're excluding Delta 1 just for this.
B
Yeah, there's two that are really good.
C
Okay, let me see what you say. I. I think that is the best.
B
And I have two. But I'm gonna say the one that I think you've probably been to because this other one you might not gone to.
C
Okay. One, two, three.
B
Oh, girl.
C
The LaGuardia Delta Lounge.
B
I don't know.
C
The chef at the LaGuardia Delta Lounge needs a raise every. The food that be slapping, popping.
B
It's so good. What makes the Seattle one great is they actually have local restaurants recipes in their lounge.
C
Huh.
B
So it's not just the same typical stuff. They have stuff from local restaurants. They take their recipes and so you can get, like, a flavor of what it's like to be in Seattle.
C
That's cool.
B
And then they do the same thing at the. This you might not have gone to. I don't know why you would have gone to this one, though. Which one it is the Atlanta International Delta Lounge.
C
No, I've never been to that one.
B
It's really, really good. And they really. Yeah, they have, like, Southern. I don't know if they're doing local restaurant, but they have, like. It's like Southern food. Like, if you're on the regular, the. The. The domestic side, it's.
C
Which.
B
What you see it always the hummus and the interesting. But on the other side, they have, like, barbecue this and fried chicken that and Mac and cheese this.
C
Can I tell you something that I did?
B
What? Are you going to Kim's tonight?
C
Is it tonight? I thought it was tomorrow.
B
It's tonight, Mama. The 25th.
C
I said. I said I wasn't gonna go. Cause I thought it was tonight. I thought it was tomorrow, and I leave tomorrow afternoon.
B
So. Answer the question.
C
I mean, now that I know, I'll message her, but. Yeah.
B
So you're gonna finally get a hit by Mac and cheese.
C
But I need to cook something now. I need to bring something.
B
You're going to get a taste of my. My famous. How. What makes your food famous? Do people have to like it or people just have to know about it?
C
I think has to get a critical acclaim.
B
From who? Someone with a cook. Someone with a cookbook.
C
The.
B
I'm just asking, if someone has a cookbook, would that be. Would that constitute critical acclaim? If kimchi tonight says that my Mac and cheese is good, can it then be famous Mac and cheese?
C
No, because Kim is not a famous critic and she's not a famous cook. Kim is very.
B
Kim is famous and she's a cook.
C
No, Gordon Ramsay is a famous cook.
B
I'm not arguing that Patti LaBelle's a famous cook.
C

Don't come into my inbox telling me he's accused of this. That. I don't know. I don't know nothing about him, except I listened to his album because it came out the same day as mine, my ep.

C
But you can include a Beyonce by Monet X, change over, whatever you were about to play.

Hosts: Bob the Drag Queen & Monét X Change
Production: Sibling Rivalry & Studio71 & Confetti Cannon
In this lively episode of Sibling Rivalry, Bob the Drag Queen and Monét X Change dig into the quirky, everyday topics that poke their pressure points—sometimes literally. From humorous disagreements about personal care habits and hotel pet peeves to playful bickering about who’s the real “less fortunate” and debates about the true meaning of “pressure points,” the duo’s infectious chemistry is on full display. Prepare for sharp wit, hilarious nostalgia, and candid conversations that range from germaphobia to burnt toast recovery strategies. As usual, Bob and Monét sprinkle in theatricality, drag references, and a running tally of who’s shadiest.
“The One About Pressure Points” is classic Sibling Rivalry: a roast-heavy, laughter-packed meander through daily annoyances, drag diva wisdom, and off-the-wall debates (with a touch of streetwise science). Fans will love the shade, the nostalgia, and the unscripted moments of pure sibling energy—even if neither host is technically a “real” sibling.
