Key Segments & Discussion Points

1. Opening Banter & Life Updates

• Monét shares an awkward moment about being too loud while filming in London and impressions of British neighbors.
  • [02:26] “I'm on my Bob shit. Because yesterday ... I get here ... exchange rate ... find out someone's knocking on my door ... they were like, you just keeping like, just like a bit too loud ...” — Monét
• Both joke about accents, British stereotypes, and their podcasting habits, including an ongoing joke about burping ([01:52-02:22]).

2. Family Thanksgiving Traditions

• Bob: Did not have traditional home Thanksgivings—ate out most meals, only a few home-cooked dishes (baked chicken, beef stew, fried chicken with Jiffy cornbread) ([08:15–09:22]).
  • "My mom cooked three things ... That was all the thing my mom cooked." — Bob [08:30]
• Monét: Mom was a big cook and entertainer, making elaborate meals on weekends and always keeping the house ready for guests with a full bar ([12:48–13:38]).
  • "My mom ... would be in the kitchen from, like, 5 AM until like, about 11, 12 ... and she would cook, like, three meats, and she would cook, like, all these sides." — Monét [12:48]

3. Friendsgiving Memories & The Infamous Pie Cook-off

• Reliving their joint Thanksgivings with friends, including the wild “pie cook-off” and the “crust fraud scandal” ([17:23–20:06]).
  • "There was some people who believe that Boomer Banks didn't make his crust ... there was crust fraud the likes of which you've never seen before." — Bob [19:07]
• Discussion of what everyone brought (or failed to bring) to the Friendsgiving:
  • Nick brings only canned cranberry sauce, which gets roasted for being “sweaty” and still in the shape of the can ([24:29–25:18]).
  • Patty gets clowned for a Hershey-bar-and-whipped-cream pie, dubbed “minimal effort” ([22:34–23:41]).
  • “I think that Mateo won the pie competition.” — Bob [23:43]

4. Thanksgiving Food Debates & Pie Preferences

• Strong opinions on frozen pizzas (Red Baron = good, DiGiorno & Tony’s = bad) and nostalgic foods ([09:39–11:23]).
• Black vs. white Thanksgiving food traditions: pecan pie (“pecan” vs. “peecan” pronunciation), sweet potato pie, pumpkin pie, and the ubiquity of cranberry sauce ([28:31–29:39]).

  • “I prefer sweet potato pie.” — Bob [29:10]
• Recalling Bob’s declaration:
  • “There will be a fleet of pies.” — Bob [29:39], an iconic line that became a running joke among friends.

5. Cartoon Controversy: “Made by Maddie” vs. “Hair Love”

• Monét discusses her Nickelodeon cartoon being accused of copying the Oscar-winning short “Hair Love.” She explains differences in story, concept origin, and defends the premise of having more than one Black cartoon family on TV ([32:34–35:39]).
  • “Why can't there be two black cartoon families on tv?” — Monét [35:32]

6. Nostalgic Snack Talk & Childhood Memories

• Fierce debate about when Rice Krispie Treats bars first appeared ([40:04–42:57]).
• Bob’s favorite snacks: honey buns and potato chips, with a tangent on the evolution of chip flavors, and a playful riff on the differences between Black American and West Indian tastes ([43:05–44:55]).

7. Gratitude & Reflections on 2020-2021

• Both hosts get real about gratitude amid the pandemic and political tumult:
  • Bob: Thankful for democracy and historic voter turnout despite anxiety over the 2020 election ([45:36–46:42]).
    • “I am thankful for democracy. I know that sounds so the answer right now, but ... democracy came through.” — Bob [45:53]
  • Monét: Grateful that friends and family have mostly stayed safe through the pandemic, acknowledging those lost in the community ([49:32–50:12]).
    • “Through this pandemic, that my friends and family have stayed relatively safe ... So I'm really grateful.” — Monét [49:32]
• Light-hearted interruptions about Colin Powell’s status and Republican sex appeal, before wrapping up with expressions of gratitude for each other ([47:26–51:32]).

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, this burp was full of you. She's in London now. I am.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, my God. So I'm on my Bob shit. Because yesterday I got here. I got here Yesterday morning at 10am I had to film Exchange rate that night. So I'm filming Exchange Rate. Patty's not here. Oh, you too loud, girl. And then I'm filming Exchange Rate. And Literally in the first five minutes, I hear on my door knocking. And I was like, oh, my God. Like someone's knocking on the door. He's like, hello, mate. You know, you're just keeping like, just like a bit too loud. You need to like, put it down because they're gonna. You're disturbing other was like, I'm in this huge two bedroom flat. Who is hearing me?

Could you imagine he has a cousin in London?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

All right, mate, you can't be. You can't be so loud, man. You're way too loud over here. You got to be a little bit more quiet. It's not impersonal, nothing personal. Then next thing you know. Listen, faggot, pipe down, faggot.

[Monet X Change]

Can I say any smoking cigarette? My favorite thing about your British accent is not necessarily the accent, but watching your face. You do this like, British accent face every time you do British accents. And it's so funny. You go, all right, mate, you gonna stop it and you're gonna do it over there. You do it just like this, love.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

All right, mate, listen to me, love. You need to fucking quiet you down, mate. You've been way too fucking loud, mate. You've been way too loud.

[Monet X Change]

[Bob the Drag Queen]

[Monet X Change]

The first one, Saga said, I'm shitting on niggers. That's what I heard the first one. You just. I was like, oh, my God, Vaga.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

How dare you?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, I'm shitting on niggas.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I said, shiver shiver me knickers.

[Monet X Change]

Got it, got it, got it. How are you, Bob?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Not shiver me. I'm pretty good. I want to talk to you about something real quick first.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, God. What?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It's not what we were. I was like, looking up some stuff. Is this true? In the. In the West End, they're only allowed to do performances for 250 people at a time?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, I think it's something crazy like that. It's like, yes, those numbers.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

How can they. I mean, it's not your business, but like, how are they even going to be able to afford to make this show profitable? Doing a show for a quarter of the capacity of the theater?

[Monet X Change]

I don't know, but they're rolling full steam ahead. And sometimes, you know, sometimes for these people, I think what it is is that I don't think they're. Yes, everyone is in the business of making money, but if you're like this, like maybe some rich fucking person who's funding this thing, he's like, listen, I am a fucking kajillionaire and I just want to put on good art during this virus. And if I lose money, so what? I'm a fucking kajillionaire, so who cares if I lose however amount of dollars? I really think that sometimes stuff is stuff. Be like that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I mean, I guess. So you're saying Trump is funding your show?

[Shopify User]

More.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

More.

[Monet X Change]

More.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

More or less. More like moral lago.

[Monet X Change]

Can you believe that when he find out. He found out that Biden won, he was literally golfing. Like, the fact that he was golfing.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Who's golfing in the middle of the, like, while they're counting numbers.

[Monet X Change]

That's what I'm saying. It's so crazy.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Apparently the people who are golfing are him and everyone counting votes in Nevada. We're all on vacation.

[Monet X Change]

Because

[Bob the Drag Queen]

he was just like, yeah, honestly, I'm going to go for a golf. Is that a big. Excuse me, I'm going to go golfing. This helps me ease my nerves.

[Monet X Change]

Excuse me. You know what? During our. During our little. Our little. Oh, my God. I need to take a little out of my vocabulary. It's so dismissive and so rude. I hate it. Also you and this water. She just drink it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, I'm telling everyone that I'm drinking. I'm not thirsty, but I have to drink water because I'm. I'm giving. I'm doing a piss test today. That's one of those tests where they can see if you can piss. I'm giving a urine sample today because of. I'm trying to get. I'm getting life insurance and I'm afraid of not having to pee at 3 o'. Clock. So I'm like doing everything I can to push.

[Monet X Change]

Well, you know. Well, you know, that's how. That's not how science and water works. If you just drink all the water you need to, that's more effective than being like,

[Bob the Drag Queen]

but I'm not thirsty, so I can't just keep. Like, I can't just.

[Monet X Change]

Which is normally how Bob drinks. Okay? That is literally how Bob drinks and eats everything. Bob does not have pacing when it comes to digesting liquids and food. Bob will take a whole bottle, swallow it all down. Bob will eat a plate of food and lickety sweat.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Who can. Like, have you seen These folks online who can like, make an entire. They don't even. Have you seen these people?

[Monet X Change]

No. What is it? Was that a burrito or a hot dog?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It's a bottle of water. They'll just take a bottle of water, they'll turn it up, and they just crush it, and the whole thing is just gone. Like, none of it spills out. They just drink the. It's insane. Like, you have to see this video. They're just. They're crazy. Mitch, have you seen it before? Mitch, thumbs up if you've seen it. Yeah. It's insane, people. I don't even. I mean, listen, I am no stranger at sliding things down, but folks, who can do this?

[Monet X Change]

Mama.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'd be like, girl, y' all better. I mean, y' all better go the fuck off. I mean, we should do a Thanksgiving episode. I don't know. We never did Thanksgiving. That was super, super traditional. And also, my mom is not, like, a big cooker. She didn't really cook. My Aunt Hazel cooks. See, Aunt Hazel cooks. And also, a lot of the guys in my family. Uncle Steve cooks. My brother is a professional chef, right?

[Ad Voice 1]

Oh, yeah.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Shopify User]

And.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But I just didn't grow up in a house. I was like, we cook. And my mom was like, we're going out. My mom was like, you know how I eat out, like, practically every meal? That was my whole life growing up. We ate out almost every meal.

[Monet X Change]

Really?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

My mom cooked three things my mom cooked. She would bake chicken and then pour mushroom soup over it. And then my mom would cook beef. Beef stew or pot roast in a crock pot, and she would fry chicken and make jiffy cornbread with it. That was, like. That was all the thing my mom cooked.

[Monet X Change]

Okay, so no sides. Y' all just ate no sides? Like, we're gonna have entrees. No sides?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, we'd have the chicken, and then we have, like. We would, like, make, like, like, mashed potatoes from, like. From flakes.

[Monet X Change]

Okay.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Or from, like, a box. And when we ate the. That was when we ate the fried chicken or we had the cornbread as well. No, it was like the fried chicken and the cornbread or the mushroom chicken, which I never ate because I don't like mushrooms, and I don't.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, my God. You don't like mushrooms? I don't like mushrooms either.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, my gosh. And then my mom would put, like, green beans from, like, a can on the stove and, like, shake them up until they're warm. And then. But whenever she did that, I would just make it I would bake. I would bake a pizza. Like an oven pizza, because I. Oh, my God.

[Monet X Change]

Okay, time out, time out, time out. Which one, though? Which other. Which other pizza was the shit? You're about to tell me everything I need to know about you, Bob, that I don't know already by what type of oven pizza frozen on pizza used to eat.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Okay, first of all, let me tell you. Let me tell you. Let me talk about the different kinds of oven pizza. First of all, DiGiorno is trash. Don't put DiGiorno is trash. No, first of all, it always comes out doughy as hell. It's too fluffy, it's not good. Don't do digiorno. You try to be classy, but, mama, you not okay. Second of all, if you some Tony's.

[Monet X Change]

You try to be classy, but you trashy.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

If you. Is it Tony? Who's the yellow one with the guy with the mustache?

[Monet X Change]

Tony's. That's Tony's.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Okay, you might be. That's not good. That's bad.

[Monet X Change]

Okay, yeah, it's little garbage.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

If I went to your house and you had Tony's pizza in the freezer, I'd be like, oh, I didn't know I was better than you. That was how I looked at people. But the one that was like, what is it, bitch? If you had Red Baron. Oh, Red Baron was good. Oh, me and my brother used to take Red Baron and put it in the oven and then cut it in half. And you have. I might get a motherfucking Red Baron pepperoni pizza tonight.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, no, no. Okay. Red Baron was good, but Celeste was everything. The Celeste pizzas, they were the perfect size for you. And they used to have like the little, like cubed up pepperonis that they will put up in there. So you have like the actual pepperonis?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't know, a little diced to pepperonis.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, I love the cubes.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

The cubes and the pepperoni. Celeste. Too much Celeste. Too much.

[Monet X Change]

I used to love Celeste pizzas. I used to eat that shit. My mom would get me like four, and I would have all four of them after school, when I came home from school and I used to fucking. Celeste was my homegirl. It would be me and her, and then I would invite my friend Arthur so we could watch him on tv and then. Or we do Zoom.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, my God.

[Monet X Change]

Did you watch Zoom as a kid? Did you have Zoom?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I didn't watch Zoom because I just did. Wasn't it pbs?

[Monet X Change]

It was pbs. Come on and Zoom.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Come on and Zoom.

[Monet X Change]

Pbs.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Was just the crunchiest tv, like pbs. I was like, bitch, you look like public tv. Like, you look like some public ass tv. I didn't watch Arthur. I was like, why is this? How is it a cartoon? But it's still blurry. I was like, no, ma', am. I'm going over to Nickelodeon. I'm not watching no public fucking cartoons.

[Monet X Change]

Pbs. Oh, my God, that's so real. Why was it blurry? That's so weird.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It just looked grainy as hell like this. You look trash as hell. Y' all don't have HD. Can we get it? Can y' all film in 1080p over here at Arthur Inc. Or some shit? I've actually done more at this point. I've probably done more friends givings than I've done Thanksgivings at home. Because I don't go home for Thanksgiving. I don't think I've ever actually gone back home for Thanksgiving ever.

[Monet X Change]

Really?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah. Never.

[Monet X Change]

Well, it makes sense. I mean, if it wasn't a tradition that you guys, like, heavily celebrated as a kid, then why would you do that? I grew up. My mom was a big cooker. My mom. Every Saturday and Sunday, my mom would be in the kitchen from, like, 5:00am until like, about 11, 12. And she would cook, like, three meats, and she would cook, like, all these sides. And it was every Saturday and Sunday every week, no matter what. My whole, like, childhood, twice a week,

[Bob the Drag Queen]

she was coming out of this food.

[Monet X Change]

Yep, Saturday and Sunday, but also a lot of. Well, it was myself, my dad, and my. And. And my brother. So then her. That's four of us. And also my mom loves to entertain. So mama always. She would always invite people over. They were so people always come over to the house. And, like, so. So my mom will always have, like, a fully stocked bar. And, like, people would come and she would, like, feed them. Like, she'd give everyone a plate and like, everyone. Like, that was my house.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Also not a fully psych bar. My mom was like. My mom wasn't, like, adamantly against drinking, but they were just really not drink. Like, there was never alcohol in my house. Actually, one time, my uncle really, one time my uncle bought some beers over for, I think, Thanksgiving. And they stayed in there until, like, June. And my mom was like, throw those beers away.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, my God. You know, my house still. My mom always keeps the house stocked for whoever comes over. There's always a drink for someone to have. But also, it's a very West Indian thing.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Your mom's an alcoholic.

[Monet X Change]

My mother, alcoholic. My mom Drinks very regularly, but I think it's just West Indian.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Not exposing your.

[Monet X Change]

No, my mom doesn't drink regularly. My mom don't give a fuck. It's just a. What's the mean thing?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I can't even imagine our moms hanging out because they're just so. They're just so different. When you said that your mom would go out in, like, leotard during carnival or during that carnival. So insane.

[Monet X Change]

Really.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I can't think of a single circumstance my mom would wear a leotard in public. And literally, I literally can't think of one reason you would ever see my mom's knees. I mean, she used to wear shorts when she would do, like, sports stuff, but they were pretty long shorts. And, like, I've never seen my. I have never seen my mom in a swimming pool.

[Monet X Change]

Really?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That's crazy.

[Monet X Change]

I used to go to the beach with my mom all the time.

[Shopify User]

Oh.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't even know what my mom would wear at the beach because I've never. I can't even fathom what my. She probably wore, like, pants, like, some sweatpants. I just cannot fathom in the water in like a. Oh, my God. I'm like, literally. This is so. I can't even fathom my mom taking off a sarong and being, like, in a bathing suit. That sounds insane to me.

[Monet X Change]

I can't imagine, but it's still wrong.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I remember holding a cocktail and being like, ooh.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, do not be little. My mother would never use a straw, bitch. My mom is like, girl.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She would never smack in the bottom of the.

[Monet X Change]

Literally, like, the water. That is so Jackie Daniel.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That is so funny and wild to me to think of. I would like to see how moms would get along. But my mom has friends like your mom, though.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, my mom always friends like your mom, too.

So, yeah, can we talk about our. We've done a few Thanksgiving together. I think we've done like two or three together.

[Monet X Change]

We've done two. Two. There was one day you invited me, but I went to my family's in Brooklyn, so I. And I was there like, all day, so I didn't make it back to yours. But there were two out there at your house pretty much the whole time.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, we did one. We did a great one. We did with Laminda Lamenda.

[Monet X Change]

Patty's mom came and we played Quiplash. And then every answer, I tried to incorporate the word nigga in as many answers as I could. And then just to see her, and

[Bob the Drag Queen]

then I started doing it. So you and I were putting nigga on the screen all the time and looking at Laminda like,

[Monet X Change]

if y' all don't know Patty's mom, her name is Laminda and she's just like petite, tiny Southern lady from Mississippi with the only accent. Yeah, she's like.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I mean, she's not.

[Monet X Change]

She's still.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She's taller than Patty, but she's still. I'm just kidding. But yeah. So we need to talk about the infamous showdown. The infamous moment. Monet, don't act brand new. You remember this? We had the pie cook off.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, God. This pie cook off. That's.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think we've discussed the pie cook off before, but we had a pie cook off.

Where?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Me, Mateo, Nick, Patty, Boomer Banks, Patty. And who was that?

[Ad Voice 1]

Everyone?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, that was. And I brought a chocolate cake.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, my God. I'm not going to go into this chocolate cake. And then we all made these pies. But the rules were you have to make the pie from scratch.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, yeah. There was a scandal in the pie contest. I forgot the scandal.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah. The scandal was there was some people who believe that Boomer Banks didn't make his crust. There were people who believe that there was. There was crust fraud is cross fraud. The likes of what you've never seen. Excuse me. On a scale of which you've never seen before. Excuse me.

[Monet X Change]

Wait, did you see. Did you hear about the whole Four Seasons landscaping thing bit? It honestly feels like Bob a sketch from Veep. Like, I'm like, this is so crazy. This is real. This is real. Shit.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I was saying this. If Shonda Rhimes wrote 2020 as a movie before it happened and put all this stuff in there, they'd be like, you have to make it believable. They'll be like, oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. And at the last moment, like, what is this, an episode of Always Sunny in Philadelph? They booked the Four Seasons and it was at a landscaping company next to a porn store. Sure, sure, Jen.

[Monet X Change]

And a crematorium. Literally, a crematorium.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like, that is insane. Like, that doesn't even make sense. Can I tell you what is so funny?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. What's up, bitch?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So I was earlier when I said, I can't say it now. Alexa, play Britney Spears. Then Alexa in this office started playing Britney. And I was like, who is playing Britney? I was like, who is? Why? I'm trying to do a podcast. And she's just been literally playing Britney the whole time.

[Monet X Change]

Which is. I knew. I heard music and I was like, well, I guess it's going on. I don't know. I heard the music, though, and I just didn't mention it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And I did. And I did it to myself. I was like, this is unprofessional.

[Monet X Change]

I get it. You just wanted ambient sounds of Washington Heights, like you were still at home. You miss New York so much.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, yeah. It'd be Britney in Washington Heights. You're right. All the cars that parked outside of my window were blasting Britney.

[Monet X Change]

Do you remember that time when we. When we were finally allowed to, like, hang out with people again in New York? When we stood outside your stoop and we were just playing gay ass music? Trying to be gay as hell.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I just wish that my speakers could have been louder, like in my house. It sounded so loud. But they were like just kind of. People would. That was one of my favorite. I wish I could have painted that. I could actually say where I lived Now. Is it weird to say where I used to live?

[Monet X Change]

I mean, yeah, you don't live there. You do it about 9:4:5Amsterdam all the time.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, it's true. I lived at 162 in Fort Washington. So if y' all want to see.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, right on that corner.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I lived on that little ramp, that little black ramp at 162 in Fort Washington. I lived there for like three years. That was the two story.

[Monet X Change]

It was part stories. You're not lying. You're not lying. Humble brag. Humble brag.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Weird flex, but okay. But yeah, that was my apartment that I lived in. That little black ramp was for the way I could never get food delivered to ever. Anyway, back to Thanksgiving, so I can't wait.

[Monet X Change]

Who thought. I think now you should say it. Don't be a pussy. Who thought Boomer Banks did not break his crust? Who thought Boomer had the big crust?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I will be honest. Me and Mateo had questions about the authenticity of Boomer's crust. And that's on, period. But also, not to mention, Patty didn't make his crust. Patty also got disqualified from Jump Street, y'.

[Ad Voice 1]

All.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Patty showed up with. He melted some Hershey bars.

[Monet X Change]

That shit is still country.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It's literally just Hershey bars on top of a crust with whipped cream covering it. It was ridiculous. And, like, actually, like, entered it into the gum. I was like, mary Mama, this is garbage. I cannot believe you bought this here. And we were clowning. Patty's fucking Pie. Patty's Pie. I mean, everything for the next couple of months was making fun of Patty's Pie.

[Monet X Change]

It was a literal. Like, it's the most minimal effort anyone attempted to try to do. Even the year before, when you made your little stuffing bread with the mashed potatoes and turkey. That even was more effort than Patty just taking a bunch of fucking Hershey bars he got from the corner store on his way to your house and just melting them in the microwave. That was so funny.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

He melted them at my apartment. I don't think he. I don't even remember where he did it, but I was like, girl, not this. I mean, that was the amount of effort that Monique used to put into gluing her wigs down. Did she do just a drop right there?

[Monet X Change]

It just stunning.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And just fucking move on. That pie was. But also, I think that Mateo won the pie competition.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, Matteo did win it. But to be fair, Mateo did. You did put a good effort into yours too, Matteo, but, like, he, like, what was his. I didn't like Mateo's because I don't like key lime pie. I don't like. I don't like lime flavored desserts. I don't like, like lemon bars. I don't like, like, lemon tarts. I don't like, like, lime and lemon desserts. Yeah. I don't like. I don't like savory desserts with lemon. I like, like lemon heads and stuff like that, but I don't like a lemon pastry.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I made a pecan pie.

[Monet X Change]

Pecan. I love yours. Your. Your pie was good. Your pie was good.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I like.

[Monet X Change]

I liked yours and Boomer the most. Wait, what?

[Shopify User]

What.

[Ad Voice 2]

What did.

[Monet X Change]

What did. What did Nick make?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Nick didn't make a pie. Nick bought cranberry sauce.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, girl. Okay. Thank you for bringing it up. White people. I mean, they say black people do cranberry sauce. I have never had cranberry sauce in my entire life of having black Thanksgivings. Cranberry sauce A is gross. The fact that Nick fucking opened the can and put it out. The fucking cranberry sauce was sweating. It had, like, the can original chow on was so gross. Do you have cranberry sauce? Was that a part of your traditions going up?

[Ad Voice 1]

No.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Bitch, don't nobody be eating no fucking cranberry sauce. Yeah, I'm curious. I think. I think it's. I think it's white people. Do you see on TikTok, they spell it W, Y, P, I, P, O. White people.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, white people. I love that. Also. Also, just. Just other little Y. And the T's. Y, T's

[Bob the Drag Queen]

white people. But yeah, that. Like that. I don't know that gag because everyone except Monet made something for this. You went to empanada, Mama Monet?

[Monet X Change]

Oh, yeah. Okay, that wasn't part of the criteria. To make something. No one said you have to make something.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, then how did everyone else get the memo to make stuff? Nick didn't make nothing.

[Monet X Change]

He brought a fucking can of cranberry sauce.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Nick can barely. Nick is not terribly great at cooking himself things. So no one wanted Nick. Nick is skinny as hell. Nick eats chicken nuggets every day. Did nobody want Nick's contribution to the table? Patty made a really great stuffing. I also made. I thought my cornbread stuffing was great, by the way. Y' all gotta.

[Monet X Change]

Did you make cornbread stuffing?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I made cornbread stuffing, and I made mashed potatoes. And I made.

[Monet X Change]

Mateo made. Matteo's contribution was one of my favorites. Matteo's lasagna was so fucking good. I ate that shit. God, let me swallow me drip down inside of me. Lasagna in my mouth.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, and what's his name? What's Ethan cooked our turkey.

[Monet X Change]

Ethan. Oh, my gosh.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Evan.

[Monet X Change]

Ethan is Mateo. Oh, my God, Bob, that is not calling him the wrong name.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Anyway, Evan made our turkey. But the funny thing. Maybe we shouldn't put this there. But Evan had to leave.

[Monet X Change]

No, we can say it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Evan had to leave because he had this shit in the middle of Thanksgiving. We were all sitting around. We were like, uber. And Evan was like, I don't know, man. I'm not feeling so good, man. And Evan's wife was like, yeah, we think we need to leave. He's like, I don't know, man. I had some vegan tacos last night, man. I gotta get out of here, man. I don't feel too good, man.

[Monet X Change]

Also, the first year we did things with Evan, Evan came. And Evan is this, you know, attractive, young white dude, straight. And Evan comes over and he's like, yeah, I'm gonna. Yeah. With a beautiful Latin. She's Mexican. He makes so many jokes about it in his standup, and sometimes people come for him. And his wife is feeling like she's been the comments.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She's like, first of all, I'm his wife, and I don't have a problem with that joke. Like, that's our motherfucking experience. Now.

[Monet X Change]

She didn't see anything like that, but,

[Bob the Drag Queen]

you know, is she from the Bronx?

[Monet X Change]

And then so Evan, like, volunteers. No one asked him to. He volunteers to cut the turkey, and he could not cut the fucking turkey. I'm like, what kind of straight dude are you? Can't even cut the fucking turkey. So Bob goes into his closet and pulls out his turkey carver that he has for his pads that Bob uses to cut his pads. I'm like, I got this. And then he gives it to Evan, and Evan probably cuts the turkey. The fucking turkey carpet, not the hip

[Bob the Drag Queen]

pads, which have never touched a turkey until that day. They have been cutting exclusively foam for the past umpteen years. And they were like, oh, my God, real turkey. This is insane. What is actually your favorite. What is your favorite pie for Thanksgiving?

[Monet X Change]

Oh, it's. Well, now. Now I can't remember how I say it. Pecan. Pecan. I guess I say pecan. It's every year. I'm like, how do I say it? Because you say pecan. Pecan. Yeah. I say pecan pie. Yeah. Pecan.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Pecan pie. What? What? Fancy, highfalutin pecan. Like, what? British. The guy downstairs who's complaining about your noise, he says, pecan. Pecan. I heard him say pecan. It's pecan pie.

[Monet X Change]

I like Dutch apple pie. Or pecan pie. Like, it's either or. I'm good with. I hate pumpkin pie. See, black people love pecan pie. White people love pumpkin pie. Do you like pumpkin pie?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It's fine. I like. I like. I prefer sweet potato pie.

[Monet X Change]

I never had sweet potato pie.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Now, that is Southern Southerners make sweet potato pie. I'll make this potato pie one day. Not that I've ever made one before, but I'm sure I could. I just follow. Do you remember the. The year that I. That everyone was like, what are you guys doing? I said, oh, I'm gonna make a pie. And everyone was like, you can't make pie. And I was like, oh, there will be a fleet of pies.

[Monet X Change]

And we. You. We made. We. We talked about that for, like, years later because that is so. Bob. Bob. We were like, bob, you never made it before. You can't make that. Oh, there will be a fleet of pies here tomorrow that I would have assembled myself.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Did everybody come make a bunny for saying a fleet of pies?

[Monet X Change]

That is so bomb.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That is literally. Oh, there will be a fleet of pies in this house on Thanksgiving.

[Monet X Change]

Don't you.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I mean, I didn't make them all myself, but I did end up getting a fleet of pies on Thanksgiving. I just convinced everyone to all make. I made two pecan pies that year. One of them I made as a test round, and the other one I made for the evening. And the one that I made for a test was actually better than the one I fucking made on the evening of.

[Monet X Change]

You know what? This year, I'm going to make a. I'm going to make a pecan pie. I'm going to send it from the UK to you guys overnight. So you guys have my. My contribution.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, you're laughing. What happened was during. So I ended up spending. Oh, actually, no. I ended up going to. When I went to Berkeley on opening night. Did you ever know about this? On opening night of my show, a fleet of pies showed up in the dressing room. Mateo and Nick had ordered, like, five pies. I come out of the dressing room and in the grocery store.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, I do remember this.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, there were five pies. Everyone in the cast was like, why did your friend send you five pies? And I was like, they're petty and they love me.

[Monet X Change]

Wait, is a fleet 5?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think a fleet is just many. I don't think a fleet is, like, a certain number, but a fleet is like. Yeah, like a whole bunch of.

[Monet X Change]

Well, there has to be some correlation, because why do you think they call it Fleet Enema? There's something between. What does fleet mean?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I can Google the definition of the word fleet right now. Let's see.

[Monet X Change]

I'm gonna look it up.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Fleet definition. A fleet is a group of ships sailing together. Sailing together, engaged in some activity or under the same ownership.

[Monet X Change]

That's.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Bitch.

[Monet X Change]

That's. Maybe they call it a fleet enemy because everybody be at the damn orgies. Fleeting girl. What does it say with sailors? Because, you know, bitch. I don't know.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Maybe it's the last name of the person who makes them Maybe it's Daniel Fleet made these enemas.

[Monet X Change]

Maybe. Maybe.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't. I don't know, girl. I mean, I can sit here and act like I know why they're called fleets, but I would fully. It would all be conjecture, and none of it would be actual truth, facts, or anything real. It'd just be me pretending like I know what's going on.

[Monet X Change]

Did you ever do podcasts work? Uh huh.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Okay, first of all, I don't say it unless I know it. Unless you don't want to be making up random ass shit. Also, by the way, did you see? Can we. Are we allowed to talk about this?

[Monet X Change]

What?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Are we allowed to talk about your cartoon and the controversy around it?

[Monet X Change]

Oh, yeah, we can talk about it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Okay, so the hair thing that they said your people stole the thing from, did you see who's narrating the one that they said y' all stole? Y' all are different.

[Monet X Change]

Who, bitch?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Blue Ivy, the one that. Was it called Good Hair or bad? What was it called?

[Monet X Change]

Bad. I don't know. Something here. Okay, let me explain the story really quick. So for like, what, two years now, I've been working on a cartoon for Nickelodeon called Made by Maddie. And it was supposed to, like, literally for two years. It was set to premiere. I played one of the principal characters on it, Siobhan Chiffon. And it was supposed to air September 13th. And then like the week before, like, all the trailers and stuff were out. And everyone's like, really excited about it. And then the people who did this short for the Emmys, I think it's called Good Hair or something. Hair, Hair love. Hair love. Hair love, Hair Love. They said, oh, wow, this is a direct copy of our story. And then meanwhile, the person who created Made by Maddie, the cartoon I was gonna do, was originally called Fashion Alley, literally has her scripts and stuff and the conception of the idea from like 2014 or 2013 when she wrote it and everything. And it was like, it's literally not the same. Oh, my God. I think someone's knocking on my door.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Too loud.

[Monet X Change]

No,

[Bob the Drag Queen]

down. You're too loud. Mike, we understand a cartoon. I understand. Yeah.

[Monet X Change]

Hair Love is, like, about a mom who gets cancer. And then the little girl, it's a black family as well, and the little girl hates her kinky hair. And then her dad, they're trying to teach her how to love her hair. And then in the end, her mom has to shave her hair off because of the cancer. And that's like their whole story. And all the journeys of that One, my story, of course, it features a black family as well. A dad, a mom and a daughter. And it is about a little girl who wants to be a fashion designer. Her mom is a fashion designer, and the little girls like to sew. And it literally come two completely different stories, but they were like, well, it's a black mom and a black dad, and the dad has dreads and your dad has dreads. I'm like, yeah, it's a black fucking hairstyle.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But does the mom have cancer in your cartoon?

[Monet X Change]

No, she does not.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So you admit it? She does. And also, does the mom have to shave her head? No. So you admit it? She shaves her head. And does the daughter hate her hair?

[Monet X Change]

No, she loves her hair.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So you admit it? She does. So you admit it.

[Monet X Change]

So it's been this whole thing, but now. So Nickelodeon hasn't. So they pulled it from this September 13th, and now Nickelodeon has investigated it and all that stuff. Right before I left to come here, I had to record two songs that we're doing on the show. And it's gonna premiere in, I think, January or February now. So it's been this whole long process, but it's like, why can't there be two black cartoon families on tv? Like, if we're the same age. Demo. Like, I just don't understand. It's so. It's very frustrating.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

My only other question is, is Blue Ivy doing any voices in yours?

[Monet X Change]

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We've got

[Monet X Change]

just F you. And guess. Guess who's playing the dad.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think of her from. I think of her from Sister Act.

[Monet X Change]

Right. Her father games.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She was in Hunger Games too.

[Monet X Change]

What was she in Hunger Games?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She was in the District of black People.

[Monet X Change]

What? Like, are you serious? Are you. Are you Doing a thing.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, no. You know the district with all the black people in it? She was in it.

[Monet X Change]

I don't remember that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She was like one of the militia people.

[Monet X Change]

Work. And guess who's playing the dad? Another. Another Broadway great.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Ben Vereen.

[Monet X Change]

Norm Lewis.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, work. If it had been been, that'd be crazy, because, you know, Ben Vereen and Pettina Miller both played the same role.

[Monet X Change]

What role, Bitch? Literally. Literally.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

The song you were just singing.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, they both played. Really?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Ben Vereen was in the original Broadway cast.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, I want to hear Ben Vereen's. I mean, I love Patina Miller so much. I don't know if I like Ben's.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I mean, it's definitely two different voices. I mean, it's a man singing, but,

[Monet X Change]

you know, thank you, Bob. I was expecting the same.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

This may shock you, but they're very different because Ben Green's a man, and he does it the man way.

[Monet X Change]

Bob, have you ever been. Have you ever been a Black Friday shopper? My family has indulged in Black Friday, and I have, but not regularly. Like, more so when I was younger, when I was really, like, trying to get them outlet mall sales.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, we didn't. No, no. My mom was also the queen of telling me to never ask for anything. My mom's always like, don't ask for nothing. My mom always told me not to ask her for anything. Like, I remember just growing up constantly being told not to ask for things. Like, if we go into a store, she'd look at me and go, don't. We go into store. Don't ask for nothing. Don't look at nothing. Don't touch nothing. Don't ask for nothing. Cause you ain't getting nothing.

[Monet X Change]

That is such a black mom thing. That is such a black mom thing.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She go, we'll get in this house. Don't ask for nothing from these people. Don't ask them for nothing. Like, I was always told, like, I wasn't ever allowed to ask for anything.

[Monet X Change]

Girl, I told you this was me, too. When I would go to people's houses, I've said this on podcasts before, and they'd be like, hey, are you hungry? Or you want something to drink? My mom, literally, I can feel her fucking eyes burning the flesh out of my skin. Like, you better not say you want nothing. You better act like you are so full and you are so. Like, your thirst is so quenched. You better just pretend.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'd be like, no. Say the line I taught you, Kevin. I am very satiated. I am completely satiated I'm not hungry. My thirst has been quenched. And my mom feeds me well at home. She's like, that's right, see?

[Monet X Change]

Which, in her defense, she did. But I was a fat ass kid, a bitch. I would be literally stuffed from Thanksgiving. And I go to somebody, house, bitch, fill me up even more. Pack it in.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Wait, so when your mom was in front of you and she told you not to ask for things, would you sneak behind her back? Like, Corey, I'd be like, if y' all got a little something, I'm not gonna. I'm not gonna say no.

[Monet X Change]

I'll be like, man, I'll suck your dick, man, with some rock for some Capri sun, man.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We got chips.

[Monet X Change]

What was your favorite snack?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What was your favorite snack as a kid? What was the snack that would get you. That would get your fucking pussy popping?

[Monet X Change]

I don't remember my favorite. I think I used to love Rice Krispies treats. Like, when they. I feel like when I was in like seven, when I was seven years old or six years old, that's when, like, Rice Krispies, like, the little treats came out. And I used to be obsessed with them.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think, okay, Rice Krispies treats have been out forever. I love that you think, but like,

[Monet X Change]

okay, not okay, not the cereal, but the little bars that came, like, they sold the bars.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Kellox, Rice Krispies Treats.

[Monet X Change]

I don't think that's real. I'm looking up right now. I don't. I don't think you're right.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

My mom used to eat Kellogg's Rice Krispies treat. Okay, Google, when did Kellogg's Rice Krispies treats come out?

[Monet X Change]

No, but that's a cereal. I'm talking about the bars.

[Ad Voice 2]

1995, according to Battle.

[Monet X Change]

Thank you.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, that's the cereal.

[Ad Voice 2]

Kellogg's launched its packaged rice Krispies treats 1995 for the company to expand production.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, I think that's the. Is that the. Is that the snacks or the. Okay, Google, when did Rice Krispies bars come out?

[Ad Voice 2]

1930.

[Monet X Change]

It was a cereal.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

1939.

[Monet X Change]

Okay, I'm saying if the cereal. So what I'm talking about is in 95. That's what I'm talking about. That thing.

[Ad Voice 2]

Jensen created the Rice Krispies treat, possibly inspired by an earlier recipe that used puffed wheat and molasses.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

When it was 1939, Monet, you were not.

[Monet X Change]

The cereal came out in 1939, but the bars, which is talking about. Came out in 1995.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Came out 1995. And the bars came out. The bars were before the cereal Monet,

[Monet X Change]

that doesn't make any sense. That's not true.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

This.

[Shopify User]

The.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

The Rice Krispie Treat, the bars, those things were out. And then later on down the line, someone said, oh, we should turn this into cereal. And then it became cereal. But the little cereal. I don't know if that's true, but you talk about Rice Krispies themselves. Rice Krispies were out before the bar, so it was Rice Krispies, Rice Krispies bars, and then Rice Krispies Treat, the cereal. I think.

[Monet X Change]

You think? You don't. You did. This is unsubstantiated claims.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Rice Krispie bars. This thing just said Rice Krispies bars. Came out in 1939.

[Monet X Change]

But bitch good.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

This bitch.

[Monet X Change]

She don't know what you're talking about. She just saying what she was saying. Shit.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Mitch, when you were a kid, were there Rice Krispie bars? Yes, and me and Mitch were kids before you was a motherfucking kid.

[Monet X Change]

You don't know that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You don't know.

[Monet X Change]

You don't know. You don't know when Mitch was a kid. You don't know Mitch's life.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Me and Mitch are the same age is a year older than me. Monet. I can call my mom right now and she will tell me there were Rice Krispie bars when she was a child. Bitch, you didn't usher in the age of Rice Krispie bars. Like the world existed before you existed.

[Ad Voice 2]

Monet.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Not Monet.

[Ad Voice 2]

Thinking.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We all popped into existence in 1990. Whatever. When your ass was born.

[Monet X Change]

I was born in 1990. Don't fucking forget it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Not thinking Rice Krispies came out with you. You really. You really. Y' all millennials really think life about you.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, go have your water, bitch, because I'm done. What was your favorite snack growing up?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, I mean, there were two. My favorite sweet snack was honey buns. I could eat honey buns. I could just eat until the. I still love honey buns. I mean, I also feel like white kids don't eat honey buns. It's like white kids don't know about honey buns, and honey buns are just so. It's the best.

[Monet X Change]

I'm a black kid and I don't like honey buns. It's just. They're not for me. No. Love.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think it's cause you're West Indian. Black American kids love honey buns.

[Monet X Change]

Anytime. I don't like something that Bob likes. Bob's like, well, it's because you're from that place. I'm telling you now, Monet, Americans, you love saying that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Black American kids Do love honey buns. Like the comment.

[Monet X Change]

If you are a black American kid and you're listening to this, please comment and let me know if you like honey buns. I'm very curious to know.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We do. We love honey buns. And then outside of that, it was potato chips, bitch. Do you remember now? I. This. I do remember. In the 90s, potato chips got crazy. They were getting, like. It used to be like, Doritos. They came in two flavors, and then it was like lay's. They come in like fours. There's barbecue, and there's sour cream and cheddar, and there's regular, and there's salt and vinegar. And then somewhere around, like, 1995, they were like, pickles, zingy, zaggy, crazy ketchup. Jalapeno ranch. Doritos are spicy. Spicy Nacho cool. Super extra. I was like, y' all doing.

[Monet X Change]

Is that when it came out? I thought that was later.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I was there for every flavor. I was obsessed. I. There was not a dorit. There was no chips you could make that I would not want to consume. It literally wasn't possible. There was no way you could make a chip I wouldn't want to eat.

[Monet X Change]

And then. And then 20, and then the 20 tens got crazy with, like, rotisserie chicken with.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, my God.

[Monet X Change]

Those are crazy. That's too much. I don't like those. That's. Those are too ostentatious. Yes, I remember. Girl, there are so many flavors. And then honestly. And you realize when you, like, travel the world a lot, too, like around the globe, there are, like, Kit Kats come in, like, over 50 flavors. You go to get chocolate in Japan or in Korea, whatever. There are so many Kit Kat flavors, Bob.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Literally any flavor you can think about placenta, like, all the weird shit you kiki in.

[Monet X Change]

But for real, though, it's pretty wild.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I will. I. We have to wrap it up soon. I just miss you so much.

[Monet X Change]

Wait. I have one more question before you. Before we leave. What are you thankful for this year, this Thanksgiving? What are you most thankful for?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, my God.

[Monet X Change]

And I know you're gonna say me, so. No, so you don't. You don't have to say me. We already know, so just. You can say something else.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, my gosh. I am honestly. I am thankful for democracy. I know that sounds so the answer right now, but. Bitch, democracy came through. I'm grateful that we had more votes turned out this year than ever before. Donald Trump has us feeling insane. We feel crazy. The vote have been. Joe Biden is the President elect. But yet somehow every American still feels a little bit nervous that somehow the Trump might magically flip the script and be president again. The Secretary of State came out the other day and said, there will be a peaceful transition of power to a second Trump term. Like, we feel crazy right now.

[Monet X Change]

Wait, wait. Did that really happen? I didn't even know that happened.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yes, girl. The Secretary of State, they were like, will there be a peaceful transition of power? He said. And he said, there will be a peaceful transition of power to a second term. Now, if you don't know Secretary of State is a really big role, you may be wondering who have been the past Secretaries of State. Maybe you might recognize a name like Condoleezza Rice or Colin Powell. I know that Hillary Clinton was the Secretary of Defense. Was she also the Secretary of State, too? Hillary Clinton, Secretary of State. Yes. Hillary Clinton was also Secretary of State. Like Condoleezza Rice, Colin Powell, Hillary Clinton, Senator, is a really big role that people take very, very seriously.

[Monet X Change]

Which. Sidebar. Colin Powell was so fucking hot, I will let him literally pound my pussy purple. Continue.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Colin Powell's dead.

[Monet X Change]

Is he?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Monet? Colin Powell is dead. Dead.

[Monet X Change]

Well, he. I mean, that doesn't change the fact he was a very attractive man.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Wait, did he die?

[Monet X Change]

I don't think Colin Powell died. I would remember that. Like, that would have been a big thing. You're crazy. Colin Powell is not dead.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, maybe he is alive.

[Monet X Change]

He is alive.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Colin Powell's still alive.

[Monet X Change]

Yes, Colin Powell.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Not that old. Ista's still being alive for me.

[Monet X Change]

He's 83. Oh, my God.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh.

[Monet X Change]

He was born in Harlem. He probably don't live in Harlem no more. Oh, he's. Well, he's married to his wife Alma, so.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, I'm thinking. I'm thinking. I'm thinking Thurgood Marshall.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, my God.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Thurgood.

[Monet X Change]

Okay, no, not Thurgood Marshall, who is

[Bob the Drag Queen]

the first black person appointed to the Supreme Court who is certainly no longer living at any point in time. But also, I'm pretty sure Colin Powell was. Was. Wait, I know Condoleezza Rice was a big time Republican.

[Monet X Change]

No, Colin Powell was. Was a Democrat.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah. Because, girl, Condoleezza Rice was one of the folks. I was like, I want to root for you. I really want to root for you, but.

[Monet X Change]

I know. But you're a Republican, ass.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, I think. I think Colin Powell is a Republican, too.

[Monet X Change]

I don't think so, Bob.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Colin Powell is a full on Republican. Yes, he is. Okay.

[Monet X Change]

I can fuck Republicans. That's okay.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah. You got to let Him. Drop that red bitch.

[Monet X Change]

Ooh, that would be so. That would be some good hate. Fucking bitch. Just. Just a good old nasty. Choke me, stroke me, gloat me.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

In the book, me, girl, you have to let Colin Powell drop that red dick down. Open that brown round, girl.

[Monet X Change]

Not that red dick in the brown round.

[Ad Voice 1]

Yes.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So what are you.

[Monet X Change]

So you're thankful for democracy?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, I'm thankful for democracy. What are you thankful for?

[Monet X Change]

I think I'm thankful that I know this sounds weird to say it, but that we're all, you know, that through this pandemic that my friends and family have stayed relatively safe. Because I know there's so many people this year who have lost parents, who've lost siblings, who've lost cousins, who've lost best friends because of the pandemic. So I'm really grateful. Yeah. Wait, say it again.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You lost an aunt.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, my aunt who lives in London. But, like, none of, like, my immediate, like, circle, family and friends. Everyone is safe. So I'm really grateful for that. And, yeah, that's the thing I'm most grateful for.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I did this thing where I was feeling really nostalgic, and I was calling old friends recently, and when I would call people, I would be like, a lot of folks had a lot of bad news this year. It was insane. I was calling folks who were like, oh. One person I called was like, oh, I lost my mind this year. I got institutionalized. Someone else I called was like, oh, my. I got diagnosed with cancer, and then my husband died a week later. And I was like, this is all, like, I cannot believe. And then I called someone else, and they were like, oh, I was doing crazy drugs and I lost my job, and I was like, oh, my. Everyone. I was like, I need to stop calling people. First of all, like, if Bob Dragman calls, bitch, don't answer the phone. But, like, everyone I was calling was having such a hard time. And I was like, I'm so grateful that I. I really didn't make it through this year. And that is not. It's not lost on me. That is not lost on me.

[Monet X Change]

You know what I mean? Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So I'm grateful for that, too, Monet. And I'm grateful for you. I'm grateful for my partners. I'm grateful for Mitch. I'm grateful for all of her. I'm grateful for Peppermint. I'm grateful for all of my friends that mean a lot to me.

[Monet X Change]

Mention your fucking partners one more time. Just one more time.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I literally named. That was the only time I mentioned them this entire. Literally, this time.

[Monet X Change]

I'm talking about the history of the podcast, bitch.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yes, you're right, Monet. I mentioned my partner who lives with me and my other partner, who I'm in love with. I'm in love with both. And, yeah, I mentioned them. Mention that you're single again.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, my God, thank you. Now I'm gonna go and drink a bottle of Peno and just draw myself in tears, so thank you so much.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, get drunk like your mom.

[Monet X Change]

I'm scared of you. Oh, my God, you're so hateful. Bye.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Bye. Bye.
