I'm Kiana, and I leveled up my business with Shopify. Once I figured out that Shopify was a thing, I never turned back. I can create a site with my eyes closed. Shopify thinks ahead of us, you know, and it thinks about the customer more than anything. Every day I'm thinking about some other new business, but Shopify is doing it to me because it's so easy to use. It's like, I can't stop.

It's a cute top you have on.
Monet X Change
Thank you very much. I appreciate that.
Bob the Drag Queen
I looks like Aquaria's Halloween look.
Monet X Change
Which one did? Like, she posted so many looks. I don't know. Which one was the Halloween look?
Bob the Drag Queen
The horse.
Monet X Change
The horse. I thought it was from a couple years ago, wasn't it?
Bob the Drag Queen
No, that was this year.
Monet X Change
Oh, she was the fruit. The fruit. Stripes. Zebra.
Bob the Drag Queen
Mm. The zebra.
Monet X Change
You know, honestly, I can see that
Bob the Drag Queen
Aquaria is such a talented makeup artist. What a talented person.
Monet X Change
Akweri is incredibly talented, and I really enjoy watching her. There are certain people that's just really kind of fun to be a fan of. Lizzo is one of those people. It's so fun to be a fan of Lizzo.
Bob the Drag Queen
Giovanni Palandrani. Lizzo also did a couple of a bunch of Halloween looks. She did Miss Piggy, the notorious Pig. She did Marge. Marge. And she did something else.
Monet X Change
She did too. She did this TikTok kid. I'm gonna kill my mom. I don't know what that is.
Bob the Drag Queen
I would look at the comments. A lot of people, it was very mixed reviews. People were like, I can't believe you would do this to this TikTok. Kid and people were like, work.
Monet X Change
The TikTok kid was. The TikTok kid who did it was doing a bit like, he doesn't actually believe that. He was doing a bit where he tries to annoy his family, where he dresses emo and then he just walks into the kitchen and goes, I wanna kill my mom. I wanna kill my dad.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay, people. This year, randomly, I saw four people did Danny Phantom, which seems like such a. I mean, it was a popular cartoon back when we were kids. But I'm like, that's just so weird. Like four people that I know did Danny Phantom.
Monet X Change
I mean, how about all the marges? Like, randomly margins.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay, no shade. But Cardi B. Well, Denali's marge since then last year was. But no shade to Cardi. Cardi's was fully cgi. I don't think Cardi was yellow. I don't think she had that wig on. Did you see Cardi's?
Monet X Change
No. I think Cardi. I, I saw. I don't know that I. That I share those same thoughts. I think there's a video. There's a video of her walking in one of them.
Bob the Drag Queen
Is it. Yeah, the longest on Instagram. I mean, Twitter.
Monet X Change
No, the last shot is her walking.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, the pictures look so. Did you see the pictures of it? The pictures look so cgi.
Monet X Change
Yeah. I mean, but I don't care. I mean, she's a cartoon. I think because she's a cartoon. I honestly don't mind. Like, she's a cartoon.
Bob the Drag Queen
I need to look at the pictures. Yeah, the pictures look like some shit. Like some like hyper. Hyper. But she looks. This is a cunt. This is a cunt, Marge.
Monet X Change
I think it's to lean into the fact that she's a cartoon, personally. But anyway, I thought Cardi's look was just phenomenal. Like, I love that look so much.
Bob the Drag Queen
Let me say this. I painted my face white on Halloween and bitch. Getting a color off, like. But also Gottmika's white. When you're black and you do completely white, it's just. You will see white for the next like two days. Gottmik is, you know, a fair skinned diva, so she can probably get away with it a little bit more.
Monet X Change
I painted myself white several times and I've noticed that as well. It is very hard to get the white out. Jacob won't leave the house.
Bob the Drag Queen
What are you up to? You're back in la, back in Los Angeles.
Monet X Change
What did I do today?
Bob the Drag Queen
People are so upset, by the way, by this watch room. People are. I mean, the influx of Comments have just been tagged. People are.
Monet X Change
I don't know what the Mad about the mad. Proper mad. You know what? Stay mad.
Bob the Drag Queen
I tweeted something. I didn't even check if people were like, monet, are you serious? What did I tweet earlier? I said, since you guys love the accent so much, we'll keep it up for the next watchery. For the rest of watchery. Smiley face emoji, bitch.
Monet X Change
They reported you to Elon Musk, girl.
Bob the Drag Queen
Jojo Mama said I didn't get the rampant criticism. I thought it was a fun episode, by the way, watching you on Hulu. Okay, thank you, Jojama. I love you.
Monet X Change
Jojo Mama was always sweet.
Bob the Drag Queen
Always sweet. I could not stop laughing. Y' all were so funny. Doing the full tour of accents.
Monet X Change
Someone said literally, y'.
Bob the Drag Queen
All. No, I'm saying y'.
Commercial Narrator
All.
Bob the Drag Queen
That was Bob. That is Bob doing a Scottish accent.
Monet X Change
Okay? That wasn't a Scott. That was a British accent, not a Scottish accent. That the one they were doing there.
Bob the Drag Queen
They were saying, you. That's what you sound like when you do a Scottish accent. That's what you sound like, Monet.
Monet X Change
Let me tell you right now. Everyone's saying, y'. All. Just let me tell right now. I know you have this fantasy with your. With your accent, but let me just put it this way. You and I were both getting dragged for these accents, but both of us.
Bob the Drag Queen
Anyways. So you're back in la.
Monet X Change
Yeah, I mean, I'll be here while I am. What I do. Today I landed back here. I dropped Jacob off at the doctor's office. His back. My baby's back is hurting, so he had to get some.
Bob the Drag Queen
Jacob, this is almost 30. This is almost 30, girl. This is almost 30.
Monet X Change
Shake him off at the doctor's office. And then I went and worked on some stuff for a strange loop. And then I had therapy.
Bob the Drag Queen
Have you ever seen two old couples, like, yeah, I mean. Sorry. Have you seen one old couple? And both of them are clearly just going through, trying to help each other. It is sometimes just so funny to me because they're not, like, down and out where they can't, like, you know, walk in somewhere. They just, like one back is hurting, and they're trying to do the other one is trying to get the thing. I'm like, that's gonna be my future one of these days. Just old and crickety. Cause, bitch, my back be fucking me up. And I'm 32. I have a lot of time left. It's not good.
Monet X Change
It's probably funny until it's happened to you, it's probably like, ha, ha. And then you're probably like, ooh, this is. I can see why this is hard.
Bob the Drag Queen
I was somewhere with some older gays, and then I was. Me and Andy were talking about peeing. I was like. I was like, yeah, last night I had to get up to pee so much in my sleep when I was sleeping. And. And one guy goes, at least you can pee when you need to. And I was like, oh, God. And I was like, what? He was like, girl, you don't know having to pee when you are sitting at the toilet for 10 minutes and you just can't pee. What? You need to pee? I was like, God.
Monet X Change
I didn't know that not being able to pee was an issue. I don't know if that's an older thing, because I know that lots of people, as they get older, they have a hard time not peeing.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, no. All the older gay was like, preacher
Monet X Change
Mary, how old are these people?
Bob the Drag Queen
I would say late 60s, early 70s, maybe.
Monet X Change
I have no experience in that realm, so I cannot speak on that. But I'm sure if they were all saying it, it's probably true.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, I think, as well. Sometimes you're like, your bladder gets swollen. I think that prevents you from peeing or something. Maybe. I don't know. I've never experienced those things.
Monet X Change
Not. Dr. Exchange, coming up with hypotheses.
Bob the Drag Queen
Dr. Exchange, Dr. Xtrange Loop. Um, what did I do today? Oh, my God. My favorite little mom and pop Chinese store, Chinese restaurant is opened again in Los Angeles. They used to have a store, the Hallways Walk, the one that was on Sunset in La Brea. I don't know if they. Some type of incident happened. They had to close on that store. And they've been in business since 1985.
Monet X Change
I think the whole building. I think the entire building, like, I think every business that's in that building has closed. I'm starting to think that the building was sold.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay. So they got, like, a new space, and I found them on Instagram, and I was like. And I saw today that they opened up, so I went to go visit them, and visit them. I went to go buy.
Commercial Narrator
Hey.
Monet X Change
Hi, Al.
Bob the Drag Queen
I went to go buy a meal to patronize this business, But I really like them, and they're so nice, and it was so nice to get some great Chinese again. And a lot of people. Every person I stayed in the store to eat, and everyone that came in, they were like, oh, my God. And they're, like, hugging everyone. So good. To see you. Like, oh, my God.
Monet X Change
How are the kids?
Bob the Drag Queen
They seem like very nice people, and I'm happy that they're back in business. So if you want Hoy's Walk, a good Chinese recommendation from me, Monet. Hoy's Walk, they're now on 3rd street by the Beverly Hills. The Beverly Center Mall. They're over there now. Oh, they moved, honey.
Monet X Change
They moved, honey.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, they moved over to Beverly Hills Mall. Mall.
Monet X Change
I once did a gig at the Beverly Center.
Bob the Drag Queen
You did? How was it? Who were the queens? Who are the queens? Who was late?
Monet X Change
It was on my birthday. I don't think anyone was late. Actually, it was me, Violet, Ginger Minj, and Kim Chi. Kim Chi and I think Jacob came with me to this gig. Actually, we did. No one was late to the actual venue, but when we were going from the dressing room to the show, somebody was late and came down the escalator after everybody else.
Bob the Drag Queen
Jacob. Jacob was like, somebody was late. Bitch. Bitch.
Monet X Change
Jacob said her whole name, Violet Cha. Somebody was late.
Bob the Drag Queen
Like, girl. We hear what she was saying. Violet posted some looks from her. Her and Mick did this magazine cover. They look great. And Violet, she posted one. Look at it. It's like a latex nude corset bodysuit thing with these red embellishments on it. It looks so good. Violet is so pretty. She does. She gets really very nice clothes made. She looks great.
Monet X Change
Yeah, she's very talented. And I like Violet Chachki a lot. Fun gal.
Bob the Drag Queen
But it's so interesting that Violet's whole brand is being expensive and designer. Designer. But her name is literally like a tchotchke. Is something that's cheap and not expensive, like a little thing. Is it supposed to be ironic?
Monet X Change
I can't speak to that. I mean, I think that maybe that's what it's about. You know what I mean? But. Oh, no.
Bob the Drag Queen
What? Violence. Drag is about being cheap.
Monet X Change
No, I think the whole name is about, like, get it? Because I'm actually not. I don't. I don't fucking know.
Bob the Drag Queen
You know what I mean?
Monet X Change
Maybe.
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't know. And that's your friend. You should know.
Monet X Change
We are friends, but I don't know the etymology of her name.
Bob the Drag Queen
Do you know the etymology of my name?
Monet X Change
Yeah, you saw. You saw a money exchange.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay, give me the whole spiel.
Monet X Change
And you said, oh, you saw a currency exchange? Said, oh, currency exchange. No, money exchange. Monet exchange. Oh, you listen to me. Oh, my God. Don't get a boner, please.
Bob the Drag Queen
I won't. What did you do in underwear? So you can see it.
Monet X Change
What are you doing for Halloween?
Bob the Drag Queen
What I did for Halloween.
Monet X Change
What did you do for Halloween?
Bob the Drag Queen
So on Saturday, Andy ended up getting tickets to the Boule Brothers. You wanna go to the Boule Brothers? I was like, sure. So we went to the Boulay Brothers party, and I stayed for like an hour and a half. It was just so busy. Myself, Andy, and. No, I think Brian, Andy's friend Brian got tickets, and Andy got one for him and myself. So Brian, Andy and Brian's friend Amanda and I, we all went to the Bluehead Brothers to see Trixie spin. Trixie djed and Symone performed. And another. A drag. I think a drag. Lewin. Her name is Dolly. Do you know Dolly?
Monet X Change
Yeah. She didn't win Drag Race. I mean, drag. She didn't win Drag Race.
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, she did this number where she came out as a clown, or they came out as a clown and they.
Monet X Change
Dolly did win Drag Race. Oh, Dragula. Oh, Didali won.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, Dolly did win. Dragula.
Monet X Change
Dragula Season four. Oh, there it is.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. And they came out dressed as a clown. You'd have loved it. And it was a really dope number. Symone did. She did Sister Act 2. So she comes out in this robe, right? And then the video behind her, she is like, Joyful, Joyful army as Lauryn Hill. And then it cuts to the teacher said, take off your robes. And then Simone turns upstage and she does this reveal. But I was fucked up because the entire house of Avalon, they were all dressed as nuns. So when I saw her saying that and she came out in a habit, I was like, oh, bitch. The whole house of Avalon about to come on stage, they're gonna do, teacher, take off your robes. And they're all gonna reveal into either colorful 90s looks or something else. But none of the rest of the House of Avalon came. Imagine if all my friends came. And granted, this is Simone's gig, right? They're not getting paid, so I get it. But imagine all my friends, You, Patty, Kennedy, Mateo, Alfredo, Jacob. Everyone came dressed up as nuns. And we did that number. Oh, bitch. All Yannick is working tonight. Everybody coming on stage.
Monet X Change
Are we all getting paid? Maybe. I don't know. I mean, I think that will dictate whether or not we're working for me, anyway.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, no, Yannick is working. Yannick is working.
Monet X Change
I can't speak for everyone else. I mean, if we're not getting paid, it's just slave labor. So we're slaving.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay. Slave labor. That's a Little much.
Monet X Change
Well, I mean, not being paid and you're benefiting and we're not. How's that not slave labor?
Bob the Drag Queen
I've done things for you. When I'm not getting paid, I just do it. Cause I love you.
Monet X Change
Like what?
Bob the Drag Queen
What do you mean like what? Over the years, I've never done anything just because and not gotten paid for it. Certain things.
Monet X Change
Can you name one? Like maybe one.
Bob the Drag Queen
I can't think off the top of my head. I'll give you one before the end of the podcast. Anyway, so I thought that they were all gonna come reveal.
Monet X Change
You know what?
Bob the Drag Queen
Let's take a break and I'll finish telling you about this number.
Monet X Change
Yeah, maybe. Maybe you'll. Maybe during this break you can think
Bob the Drag Queen
of one thing you got. Suck my dick.

All right, we're back. We have taken a one hour break Monday. If you think of any, it's literally
Bob the Drag Queen
a one second break anyway. Hold on, let me finish. So then, so she does, she takes off her robe and she goes into Alien Superstar. But I thought the. You cannot tell me. Like I was not wrong. The numbers started, I was like, oh, the whole house of Avalon is coming out in December. Watch, bitch. I was sitting there like, Monet does that.
Monet X Change
When you're with Monet, she'll lean over and give her predictions of what happens. We were at Lizzo and she was like, the skirt comes off, it becomes a different outfit.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh.
Monet X Change
Cause I.
Bob the Drag Queen
Cause I've seen. Monet has seen videos of Lizzo on
Monet X Change
the, watching the show. Then one day's leans over and goes, the skirt comes off. It Becomes a different. It's like part of the. I don't know why it was so funny to me, the skirt comes off, just wait and see.
Bob the Drag Queen
Because I watched the videos online of her doing the concert. I was like, oh, it's the outfit she wears later on the show. So it makes sense. Also, Bob, you're a one to talk, bitch. That is you at the movies, except you're doing it the entire way through and laughing and telling jokes to yourself.
Monet X Change
I don't really make predictions. I make jokes. Right, But I will say, but I make a lot of jokes. I make a lot of. I don't really make predictions, but I make a lot of jokes.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, not predictions. That's you talking throughout a whole. At least the difference between me at an arena and it's loud, everyone's talking, bitch. The movie is Silent Bob was like, girl, she ain't gonna.
Monet X Change
Yeah. Like if something happened, I'm like, I wanna tell a joke with my friend. Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay, so at least mine is, you know, masked by everyone screaming and cheering and clapping. Yours is in the loudest voice in the quietest room.
Monet X Change
Well, I'm not trying to compare them. I'm just saying that you like to make predictions during show. You like to lean over and be like, the house avalon gonna come out, watch this.
Bob the Drag Queen
I really thought. I really thought.
Monet X Change
When you watch. Have you ever watched a movie with Assad?
Bob the Drag Queen
No.
Monet X Change
It is very strange, Assad. Like, even if you're both like, this is my first time ever seeing this movie. Assad will be asking you, like, are they gonna do this? Are they gonna do this? And he also likes to make predictions, but he makes them like, eh. I mean, every second of the film. We watched Midsommar together and I was like, he's like screaming, jumping, screaming, oh my God, you are acting wild.
Bob the Drag Queen
I didn't. I haven't seen Midsummer. Is that a scary movie?
Monet X Change
Midsommar is a. It's a. It's like the scary movie. The whole thing happens during the daylight and it's. This is like Swedish, Norway, Norwegian. Some sort of like slob, like Icelandic Slavic type people. Danish or something. And. And they live in this cult and then people are visiting from America and they get caught up in the cult. It kind of reminds me a little bit of that movie with Nicolas Cage. Was it called B Man, Tree Man Forever Man, Never Man. The Wicker Man. The Wicker Man.
Bob the Drag Queen
I have not. I have not seen. I haven't heard of that. Or I haven't seen Midsommar or Wicker Man. I don't know what that is.
Monet X Change
Do you like scary movies?
Bob the Drag Queen
I do like scary movies. What I recently saw. I love scary movies. I love being scared. I love. Like, I've seen two recently and both were. Man, I saw. Have you heard about this movie? Everyone? I don't know if everyone talk about it, but it's the movie Pearl. Have you seen this movie? Jacob probably has heard about it. It's this, like, I can't even explain it. We. I. People are saying it's great. It's one of the greatest movies of this year. It's one of those kind of movies. I was sitting there like, this shit is whack as hell.
Monet X Change
The two movies, the two scary movies I heard about are Smile and the one where that. With a robot girl. Mindy or Cindy or Melissa.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, the one that looks like Chucky or she's a doll or something.
Monet X Change
No, she does not like Chucky, but she is a robot. Megan. Megan.
Bob the Drag Queen
Megan. A robot. But everyone's comparing her to Chucky. They're like, oh, Chucky, this is the new you. All those memes about it.
Monet X Change
Oh, I have seen that. Yeah, I have seen that. Yes.
Bob the Drag Queen
But I saw Smile. I thought Smile was fine. I didn't think Smile.
Monet X Change
Here's the thing.
Bob the Drag Queen
A lot of movies these days are like two and a half hours long. I'm like, smile did not need to be two and a half hours long. Smock could have been an hour and a half and then it would have been good. But it just kept on dragging and dragging and dragging. And I'm not one of these people that gets so bent out of shape. They'll be like, all screen movies are the same. It's basically the same thing. This is going to blah, blah, blah. I know you look up how long it is.
Monet X Change
Hour and 55 minutes, two hours.
Bob the Drag Queen
It was. It was. That was 25 minutes too long. So it's just one of those movies because it was. They kept on, like, trying to drag this plot out. Like, it just. It made it move. It made it not fun anymore. Like it was. If it was an hour and a half, I would have given it like a solid 75% of rotten tomatoes because it kept on dragging. It goes down to 55% for me.
Monet X Change
You do drag. You don't like when other people do it.
Bob the Drag Queen
Let me see what Smile got on Rotten Tomatoes.
Monet X Change
Smile has a rating on rotten tomatoes, 79%. So I think that a lot of people liked it. It got 79% of Robert Mayo 6.9 out of 10 on IMDb and Metacritic. Got 68%.
Bob the Drag Queen
What do you. Do you list? Do you follow critics? Like, do you like. Do you. When you're going to go see a movie, do you like. I want to see what the critics say. And do you normally, like, side with the critics?
Monet X Change
I don't. I don't really listen to what the critics say. Normally, every once in a while, a Rotten Tomatoes review will stick out to me. If it's got, like, 100%, one of those, like, we got 99% rotten tomatoes, I'm like, oh, that's interesting. But typically speaking, I just kind of go off a trailer, and if the trailer looks good, I'll go watch the movie.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, yeah. That's how I feel, too. I don't. But there are some people who they really like, let the critics dictate if they like a movie. Like, they're like, I want to go see it. But let me see what Rotten Tomatoes said. Ugh. Rotten tomatoes says 50% is probably not good.
Monet X Change
And then, even though Martin Tomatoes isn't the critic, Rotten Tomatoes is like a bunch of people, independent people. It's like a Yelp rating. Whereas I do say, like, let's say you tend to agree with Siskel. You're like, if I. Siskel and Ebert. Siskel is the one who's living, I believe.
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't know what that means. Are these people.
Monet X Change
Siskel and Ebert are probably the most famous film critics of all time. And Siskel, I believe, is the one who's still alive, I believe. Unless it's Ebert, one of them passed away anyway. But if you're like, you know, Siskel is almost always, like, in line with me whenever I like, you know, whatever I think, then I'd be like, all right, I will. I'll listen to Cisco. No, Cisco died. No, Cisco died. Ebert is the one who's alive. You ever heard of Siskel and Ebert?
Bob the Drag Queen
Never heard of these people.
Monet X Change
Basically, like, the most famous film critics of all time. They are both dead. Never mind they are both dead.
Bob the Drag Queen
Them niggas is dead as hell. Yeah. So I don't let. I don't let that sway me if I. If I want to go see the movie and I just form my own. My own opinion about it, you know? Yeah. Yeah. Do you like scary movies?
Monet X Change
I like some scary movies. I'm not, like, obsessed with them. Like. Like my old roommate Zach is obsessed. He will watch any scary movie. Like, he watches all of them, Every one of them. Old ones, new ones, crummy ones, great ones, multimillion dollars, $10, anything. I really, Like a few of them. Like, I love the Conjuring. The Conjuring is one of my favorite films of all time. It's really. Well, it is a brilliant film. It is so smart.
Bob the Drag Queen
Is it very scary?
Monet X Change
It is very scary. It is scary and it is very good. I highly recommend you watch. If you want to go to my place, we can watch it in the dark and stuff or whatever. We go to your place.
Bob the Drag Queen
You have your projector up yet?
Monet X Change
I. Yeah, you.
Bob the Drag Queen
You've.
Monet X Change
Yes. You've. You've seen my projector?
Bob the Drag Queen
No, but there's something you don't have that we couldn't watch. Your projector. That's why I'm saying, do you have it all working? Like, it came over and you're like, oh, we can't watch it because of something.
Monet X Change
I think Monet came over during the day and we couldn't use it because we didn't have curtains. Yeah, but we have curtains now.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, work. So I'm not crazy, nigga. Something was wrong. Something was wrong with your. Shit was fucked up.
Monet X Change
There's nothing around my house, and my house isn't fucked up.
Bob the Drag Queen
Or something was askew. You know, I'll come over and watch the Conjuring. Not tonight, but I'll come over. Listen, I'm gonna have to talk.
Monet X Change
I did not invite you tonight. I did not invite you tonight.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, nigga, I'm not coming ever again. How about that?
Monet X Change
Okay, that's fine.
Bob the Drag Queen
Great. Here's the thing. Here's a question for you. Would you. If you were cast in a horror flick, what role would you want to be? Would you want to be the bad guy? Would you want to be, like, who. Who are you? Who would you be cast as?
Monet X Change
It depends on the bad guy. If it's like a Mike Myers, Freddy Jason type, I would want to be that. I don't want to be like a Freddy Krueger Chucky type, because Freddy Krueger and Chucky are very funny. They're telling jokes. They're very charismatic. Whereas Mike Myers and Jason Voorhees are just kind of walking around.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah.
Monet X Change
So I would want to be a charismatic. Or like a psycho. I don't want to use that word. Like a deranged.
Bob the Drag Queen
Like a deranged killer in, like, American Psycho or something.
Monet X Change
Like a photo booth with Robin Williams.
Bob the Drag Queen
Keith Sutherland was the. Was the back guy.
Monet X Change
Phone booth.
Bob the Drag Queen
Phone booth. What are you talking about? What'd you just say?
Monet X Change
Photo booth with Robin Williams.
Bob the Drag Queen
Never seen that.
Monet X Change
Robin Williams was a film developer at, like, a. Like, cvs. Or some sort of a pharmacy. And he became obsessed with one of the people whose photos he developed, and he, like, started stalking them.
Bob the Drag Queen
I would want to be like. I mean, it's not a horror movie. I guess. It's a thriller. Fatal Attraction. Like a Glenn Close. A Glenn Close type of role. I would love to play a role like that. That sounds. That seems so fun.
Monet X Change
So you want to be a bad guy?
Bob the Drag Queen
I would absolutely want to be a bad guy, for sure.
Monet X Change
Do you give back our energy?
Bob the Drag Queen
I think I could if I was paid to act like it. Absolutely. But in life, I am good. I am good.
Monet X Change
What do you mean, in life you're good?
Bob the Drag Queen
What does that mean, life? In everyday life, I am a good person. I'm not. In life, I'm not a bad guy. I'm a good guy.
Monet X Change
Most people think they're a good person. Like, I don't think I'm a bad guy either. I think if. If I were to compare myself to a specific good guy in a film, I'd probably be something like a Deadpool or a Wolverine,
Bob the Drag Queen
I think. Let's take our friend group, right? Let's look at some. Who is superheroes and supervillains in our friend group? I'm a superhero. Kenny's a superhero. You're a villain.
Monet X Change
What is Peppermint?
Bob the Drag Queen
Peppermint is definitely a superhero. You're a villain.
Monet X Change
I'm not a villain.
Bob the Drag Queen
Alfredo's a villain. Patty is a villain.
Monet X Change
I'm not a villain. I don't accept your casting of me as some sort of a villain.
Bob the Drag Queen
You're like, not like super villain. Like, you're like. You're like. You're like. What's his name in the movie with the big head. But he ends up being good at the end. Jacob. You know what I'm talking about.
Monet X Change
Megamind.
Bob the Drag Queen
Megamind. You're like a Megamind.
Monet X Change
I don't know who mega mine is, but I'm not a bad guy. I do not accept your casting that I'm just some villain. I don't feel that way. So we're not gonna just skirt through and be like, yeah, I'm a villain.
Bob the Drag Queen
Alfredo is once definitely a super villain. Patty's a super villain.
Monet X Change
Patty's a villain. No.
Bob the Drag Queen
Patty's a super villain. Yes.
Monet X Change
Why? What makes Patty a villain?
Bob the Drag Queen
It's just. We're just casting our friends, and I feel like Patty falls a supervillain. Jacob is a. Jacob is a superhero.
Monet X Change
What's Naomi?
Bob the Drag Queen
Naomi. Naomi Smalls. I think she could be supervillain.
Monet X Change
How about Kim?
Bob the Drag Queen
Kim Chi is A bitch super villain.
Monet X Change
Down.
Bob the Drag Queen
Plastique is a superhero.
Monet X Change
Plastique's a superhero.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yes.
Monet X Change
Plastique is a nice villain. Plastique is a Glinda. The good Plastique is a Regina George.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, she's not. She's not. You're fucking.
Monet X Change
I said what I said Bianca Del Rio is a villain.
Bob the Drag Queen
Bianca Del Rio. No. Superhero. No. So you're right. You're right. She's a villain. She's a villain. She's a villain.
Monet X Change
She's a super villain. But there's also more nuance than just villain, hero. I would say you gotta write it off. The chaotic good, chaotic neutral.
Bob the Drag Queen
And I'll just go into something very simple, very basic. Just superhero, super villain, superhero, super villains.
Monet X Change
Yeah, you would go for basic.
Bob the Drag Queen
Anyway, we get a Violet Chachki super villain. And she's the type of villain she does fucking shit up for. She's like stomping on cats. She's fucking punching dogs. That's Violet Chachki.
Monet X Change
So you think Violet Choksky is the Joker?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yes.
Monet X Change
Some people just want to watch the world burn.
Bob the Drag Queen
That dad. Violet Chachki.
Monet X Change
That's one of my favorite quotes in that film. Some people just want to watch the world burn.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. Violets is a Joker type. Kim is the Riddler. Just playing around. Just playing around.
Monet X Change
If I was gonna be a villain, I'd be kinda like the lady in the Incredibles 2 where you think I'm a good guy the entire film. Oop. Spoiler. Where you think I'm a good guy the entire film.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, her. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Monet X Change
It's kinda weird when you think about the fact that Incredibles really fully took, like, I think 10 or eight years in between films and then just jumped back in like nothing happened. They were like. Anyway, we're back. Incredibles 2.
Bob the Drag Queen
It me, I thought it was good. I really enjoyed the first one. I really enjoyed the second one. I think Incredibles is one of. I guess I know it's Pixar, but they're the same thing now. It's one of my favorite Disney Pixar films of all time. I love Incredibles.
Monet X Change
I know we're talking about films, but should, at some point, should we discuss Kanye west purchasing parlor, Elon Musk purchasing Twitter, and the madness that has ensued in.
Bob the Drag Queen
We need to do a podcast about it because it's. It's really insane. And I was watching. I was reading an article on Vice today about how, like, Elon Musk versus Twitter for 44 billion. It was only valued $12 billion and they're saying in about, in the next two years, he's going to take it out of billion dollar, like taken out of a. Billions of dollar period. It's going to be worth millions of dollars because he is just, he is just burnt. He is just on the, on the path that he's going. He is tanking the value of Twitter.
Monet X Change
I wonder if folks will. I wonder if folks would leave like Twitter is. One is, is probably of the apps that I'd be ready to leave without feeling any sadness or regret. Number one is probably Facebook and then number two is probably Twitter.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, for me too. I could take two leads, Twitter. But the guy who, what's the name? Jack Dorsey, who invented Twitter, he is a beta version of a new social media site called True Blue or Trust something. So maybe that will be the next move.
Monet X Change
So I feel like on the last podcast I mentioned that Kanye West, I think that he suffers from mental illness, which is, which. Which could explain some of his behavior. And I feel like the listeners were like, bob is saying Kanye west isn't bad. And I'm like, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not saying that. I was just saying that I feel like from my experience with family members and friends who have, who are unmedicated for their diagnosed mental conditions, in my experience with them, I've noticed that sometimes when people are unmedicated for diagnosed mental conditions, they get wild. They. They get, they do stuff that you'd be like, I don't even know how anyone could ever go down this. This path. You know what I mean? But. But I don't think that Kanye west should not be held responsible for his actions. You know, a mental condition is not a, Is not an excuse to be
Bob the Drag Queen
a racist, to be a bigot, to be.
Monet X Change
I was gonna say, in general, it's not an excuse for, like, if you break the law. You can't just say, well, I'm, yeah, I have, I have, I. I have bipolar disorder. You can't just say that. You can't just say, I have borderline personality, I have schizophrenia. You still have to answer for your actions. But I think that in the, in, like, I'm thinking in court, it is taken into consideration when they sentence you.
Bob the Drag Queen
It is. But I think that even though Kanye west is unmedicated, I was like, he needs to be. He needs to be held accountable for everything that he's done and said. And I, and I agree with that. And I'm happy that he is. I'm happy that all, like, literally pretty much Everyone who Kanye had business dealings with, Adidas Balenciaga, they have cut ties with him. They have distanced themselves from him. Because a lot of these companies are like, this is insane behavior. This is not cool. A lot of our employees are Jewish and black and all this stuff. So I think that these companies are taking the right steps and doing the right things, and Kanye west will feel this, and that sucks. But just because you don't take your meds is not acceptable. Did not excuse your behavior, and it's not. You know, let's take a little break, and we want to talk about Kanye. Just because you're not taking meds did not excuse you from being held accountable. So it sucks, but. Sorry, buddy.
Monet X Change
Does it suck?
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, it's. I'm sure it sucks for him. I'm sure Kanye west is like, damn, I really fucked up. I mean, we haven't heard from him for a few days or so. Who knows what he's going on recently?
Monet X Change
So when he. So Kanye west, he said that really weird thing where he was like, I can say antisemitic stuff, and Adidas won't. They can't drop me. Which is such a weird thing to, like, try to say. And Adidas, I think, within 24 hours are like, we can and we certainly are. And then he said that George Floyd's death had nothing to do with the knee on his neck. And he said it felt it was because he had fentanyl in the system. And then he made a statement, like a video, someone interviewing him. He was like, I'm so grateful for the black community for holding me accountable for what I said about George Floyd. He goes. He said something. He says something. He was like, I'm the richest black man in the world, and it feels like I have a knee on my neck. And I was like, wait, you think people holding you accountable for your words and your actions is the same thing as George Floyd being murdered by the cops? That is. It shows that he's not. Either he's not there or he's not able to, or he's just so egotistical at this point that he thinks that. He thinks that he's. I don't even know when he said that. I was really blown away. And. But he. He also thought that that was like a. He thought that was an atoning. He was like, you guys, I get it now. I, too, have a knee on my neck because. Because Adidas dropped me.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. And it doesn't even. And I. I mean, all I. What I think about. And I Feel bad. Like, imagine, like, his kids, like, there's no way in their schools that they go to. Everyone knows that Cond Is their dad. And this growing up, happened to see your parent behaving in such a way that happened to see that when you were. How old are these kids? Seven, five years old, you were in your dad's fashion show at one of the biggest fashion houses with a shirt that says White Lives Matter on it.
Monet X Change
Were. The kids wore the shirts.
Bob the Drag Queen
There was a kid. I think one of them. I think maybe north was in it. One of the kids was in the show.
Monet X Change
He put north in a shirt that said White Lives Matter.
Bob the Drag Queen
Let me double check. Kanye west kid. White lives matter.
Monet X Change
I googled Northwest. White lives matter. I don't know that he. That he put the kid in a shirt, but that would end up so messed up.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, no. Maybe it was a kid that just looked like his kid. Sorry. I mean, that was. That was. I should have read the article, probably. They were showing a little girl in the show, but it wasn't his daughter. It was another little girl, but it is a little black girl.
Monet X Change
Whoever they put in this Black Lives Matter shirt, that is really messed up also. That's fucked.
Bob the Drag Queen
You know what I mean? I mean. And you know, the sex tape thing? Like, this is. You see Kim Kardashian talk about it on the show all the time. She's like, so think about the sex tape. She's like, my kid's gonna see this one day, and I have to, like, have this conversation. Bitch, fuck that. Imagine having a conversation about your dad, like, spewing all of this crazy stuff online. This, this, this. This. This. This racist propaganda about what? Like, it. Like, it is crazy. Like, these kids had to, like. Like, they're. I just. I would hate that being my experience as a kid. Experience. My. My. My. My black dad being fucking wild and just propagating this stuff.
Monet X Change
Yeah. I mean, the west family is really got their work cut out for them, that is for sure. And I do not. I do. I do not envy them, to be honest. I would much rather be a Caldwell. I'd much rather be a Caldwell than a West in 2022.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay.
Monet X Change
Would you swap places with Kanye West?
Bob the Drag Queen
Would I swap places with Kanye West?
Monet X Change
Yeah. You know, some people are obsessed with money. I don't know if, like, Kanye west is the richest black man in the world. Would you swap places?
Bob the Drag Queen
Is that true, though? Is Kanye west the worst black man in the world? I don't think that's true.
Monet X Change
I don't know.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. I would.
Monet X Change
He's very rich. We know that he's very wealthy.
Bob the Drag Queen
I would. I would not want to swap lies to Kanye West. Money. But money is not everything. Money does not make all your problems go away. Clearly, money can literally give. Well, not. Not probably. Money does give you more problems. Like, just because you have more money, does your mind. Your life is not sweeter? Your life is not easier now? Yes. Having money to take care of things that you may be struggling with right now, that seems you, like, speak for yourself, girl. Like, that. That was helpful. I'm not saying that that is unhelpful. To make more money, to be able to support your family and your. And this and the other. That and the other. But look at what this motherfucker. That means. I have Kanye. Kanye West's mental stability. I have Kanye West. I have all of Kanye West's problems. I have. No, I would not want to know.
Monet X Change
There are some people in the world who just really worship money. I'm not one of those people. I would never do that. But there are some people who just really worship money in a really. What I would say is a concerning manner. And they just. You know, they just think to themselves, I. It doesn't matter. As long as I can. As long as I can, you know, say that I'm rich, it doesn't matter.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, you know, I mean, I.
Monet X Change
And.
Bob the Drag Queen
And for those people, like, I. I don't say I don't understand, because I can understand if you are someone struggling every day to put food on the table to. You're like, you. You can't find a job. Your family is living a certain way, and it's. And that's affecting your mental health and your abilities. Like, I get it. But for me, I know I cannot. But for some people, when they see that on Monday, they're like, my life will change. I do not have to live like, how I'm living right now. Like, things will be so much better for me. And I get how you can see someone who's a billionaire and be like, if I just had that, I don't care about all this stuff. I'll be cool. So I get those people. I get what y' all are saying, but for me, absolutely not.
Monet X Change
I think that also there's a difference between being comfortable and being the richest person in the world. Do you need to be the richest person in the. I mean, again, speaking for someone who is very comfortable. I'm not rich, but I am very comfortable.
Bob the Drag Queen
Cozy, comfortable, black.
Monet X Change
Like that. I am. But also being someone who has been quite poor and destitute to being someone who doesn't really have to worry about money anymore. You know, there was, like, a movie called Happiness or something. It was basically studying happiness. And it was saying, like, honestly, you're kind of just as happy as you're gonna be. Like, unless you have a medical condition where you're, like. Where you're. Where your brain won't release dopamine and you get, like, medicine to fix it, otherwise, you're kind of just as happy as you're gonna be. You can get bursts of happiness. You can gain comfort, but they're like, you know, partners and money and other stuff. It actually won't make you a happier person.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. Yeah, I can. I mean, I'm sure.
Monet X Change
Do you feel happier now than you did when you were, like, working at the Yale Club? Like, happier? I don't.
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't think happy is the word, but I think there are other things. Like, I feel more comfortable. I feel. I feel more ease. Like, I feel less stressed in certain ways. But when I say I'm happier back then, I didn't know. So back then, I was quite happy. I was like.
Monet X Change
I was like.
Bob the Drag Queen
Back then, I was happy working 60 hours a week and, like, grinding to be comfortable and happy then. You know what I mean? Like, I was very happy, content doing that.
Monet X Change
Do you feel less stressed now than you did back then?
Bob the Drag Queen
In different ways? Like.
Monet X Change
Like, in general.
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't know. I think there's something about me being young, in my early 20s, and not just certain worries I didn't have. I would say maybe I am a little. I was a little less stressed then, maybe because they're just. I just. Life is just different, you know? But I don't know. How about you? Do you feel. Do you feel less stressed then or now?
Monet X Change
I feel more stressed now. I have more responsibilities now than I had back then. I was really only taking care of myself back then, but now I support my family as well. I have more bills now, so I actually do feel more stressed.
Bob the Drag Queen
More money, more problems.
Monet X Change
I feel more stressed now than I did back then, but I don't feel happier. But I also don't feel sadder. Like, I feel like you knew me back then. Like, I felt like the same level of happiness now that I was when I was, like, working at the Monster.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, you were always mean. No, I'm kidding. You do. You seem. You seem the same. Nothing much is really. You seem like the same.
Monet X Change
Yeah. And that's when I. You know, that's what this documentary was saying, like, you will just kind of be as happy as you're gonna be unless you have a medical condition halting your happiness and you get medication.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah.
Monet X Change
You know what I mean?
Bob the Drag Queen
I feel that now. So when we. Did y' all saw the episode with Peppermint, like, after the podcast, then Peppermint was like. She says, me and Bob, have y' all seen the. Have y' all seen the niggers on Twitter? And me and Bob were like, no, she.
Monet X Change
It was something. It was slightly different the way she said it. The way she said it was slightly different. It was like, have y' all seen all the niggers going on on Twitter? And we were like, that was what it was. And we were like, what? She goes like, everyone on Twitter is saying nigger now. It's, like, all over Twitter.
Bob the Drag Queen
And I was like, what? And I guess I didn't realize that people have not been sick because I tweet nigga sometimes. If it's nigger, I.
Monet X Change
And Pep is right. The worst of the use of the word nigger, not nigga, has gone up 500% since Elon Musk announced that he purchased.
Bob the Drag Queen
So were they letting nigga slide before with. With a. With an A like that one? They wouldn't check, but, er, they would check.
Monet X Change
I think. I think what's going on is people who say nigga are typically not using it in the same way people who say nigger. Usually, if you say, er, you are typically trying to elicit a. A specific response, and the use has gone up because people are just saying it racistly. People are just intentionally using the word in a very racist and salacious way. Because Elon Musk has basically announced that he's gonna allow it.
Bob the Drag Queen
But he said he brought us speeches back. Well, bitch, he got there, and he fired, like, four of the bigwigs over at Twitter. He's over there making it. He is clearing offices out. Elon Musk is like, I am the new sheriff in town. He's like, I'm gonna make Twitter. But he's also vowing. He's like, I'm not gonna let everything fly, but I'm gonna let people. I'm gonna let people exercise their First Amendment rights. He's like, but, like, within reason. And I'm like, bitch, what are the. What are the reasons where.
Monet X Change
What do people. What do people think the First Amendment allows? I always wonder, like, what do you guys think the First Amendment, you know?
Bob the Drag Queen
Let's read it here on the pocket. I'm gonna get it right here.
Monet X Change
I Can say congress shall make known law respecting the establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof, or abridging the freedom of speech or the press and the right of the people peaceably to assemble to petition the government for address of grievance.
Bob the Drag Queen
Did you memorize that or you read it?
Monet X Change
I know it by heart.
Bob the Drag Queen
Why do you know it by heart?
Monet X Change
I've just kind of always known the First Amendment. I learned it in school and I never forgot it.
Bob the Drag Queen
Hey, the First Amendment provides that Congress makes no law. Let's break it down. Congress shall make no law requesting and
Monet X Change
the establishment of religion, Meaning it won't say, like Christianity is. Right. So the first part is Congress must. Shall make no law respecting the establishment or prohibiting the free exercise thereof. Meaning you can practice any religion you want in the United States of America. So Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of religion or prohibiting friction or abridging the freedom of speech or
Bob the Drag Queen
it protects freedom of speech, the press, assembly, and the right to petition the government for a redress of grievance. Of grievances.
Monet X Change
Grievances. I was reading the way I think you're reading a newer.
Bob the Drag Queen
Like, it's what's on the whitehouse.gov today that's on their website.
Monet X Change
And the way they used to write it, it was like all like, grievances. Grievances.
Bob the Drag Queen
That was just your Clinton county showing, baby.
Monet X Change
So basically what it's saying is you are allowed to say most things as long as you're not infringing on someone else's rights. The press is allowed to print most things as long as it's not like infringing on other rights. And if the government is fucked, you can petition to change, AKA protest.
Bob the Drag Queen
And. Yeah, but also people don't realize too, is that Twitter is not a public Twitter. Twitter is not a public square. It is not a. It is not public. It's not a. Twitter is a privately owned business. Yeah, it's private Twitter. Twitter is. So whoever owns it can do what they want and they can censor certain people and not certain people, I mean, I think. But they're in the past four years with Donald Trump. Twitter's gonna change. Like, well, not Even with the 20th century law and how the world is moving. Like, Twitter became like, the White House has an official Twitter. Like, there are things that are. Which technology and the law have not caught up with each other. So there are still all of these loopholes and things that we have not figured out that I think that honestly, some laws need to be enacted to make it all make Sense. Because if the cause. If the government is gonna have an official Twitter where the President is making official statements, then there needs to be laws that protect that and put laws into place and make that make sense. You know what I'm saying?
Monet X Change
You're also not. But also. I do know what you're saying. And I also think that freedom of speech also does not pertain to public spaces. You can't just go into public spaces and say anything you want. For example, technically a courthouse is a public building and you are legally not allowed to lie on the stand. You can't just say whatever you want, anywhere you want. You can't go into a crowded square and yell, I have a gun.
Bob the Drag Queen
You cannot go to a theater and yell, fire.
Monet X Change
That is against the law. Even though the public square is a public place, you are out in public. You cannot just go in the public square and yell, I have a gun. I'm going to shoot everyone. That is not how freedom of speech works. And I think that the reason why Donald Trump was taken off of Twitter was because he was inciting violence and riots. Yeah, that's how they got it on the six now.
Bob the Drag Queen
But the bitch. He's getting his Twitter back. Elon Musk is giving this motherfucker his Twitter back.
Monet X Change
Yeah, I heard. And Kanye west, too. I think Kanye west is already back or something.
Bob the Drag Queen
Is he?
Monet X Change
I think. I mean, honestly, it's so hard to keep up with. The world is so upside down these days. It's genuinely kind of hard to keep up with.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, I can't. It's all just all very fucked. And it just seems like. I don't know. I really don't know. I mean, but if we all. Cause they have all these, like these, like, these like, secondary social media places, like for all conservatives to meet. Like, there's like, there's a. Do you know about this? All conservative YouTube. They have like all liberal YouTube. And it's like where both sides can like, put their stuff and like, kind of you're with those same people. So there's gonna. This new one that Jeff Dorsey is making. It's just people just gonna move and they're just all gonna become the same thing at some point. Like, it's. It's. Unless there are laws that actively go into effect and make to fix this stuff, it's just all just gonna keep on shifting and moving about.
Monet X Change
And I think that laws constantly evolve. The Constitution is a living document. You know, laws constantly evolve to fit the time that we're in for good and bad. But that's all subjective. You know what I mean? Yeah. I'm trying to stop saying, you know what I mean. I don't like how it sounds when
Bob the Drag Queen
I say that J. So try saying J.
Monet X Change
Yeah, I mean. You know what I mean?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah.
Monet X Change
I don't like. I don't like saying something they're saying, you know what I mean? Like, it doesn't. It doesn't. It doesn't. I don't feel. I feel. I feel less articulate when I say it. I want to just stick the landing and be like, period, end of sentence.
Bob the Drag Queen
Stick the landing. Do you like gymnastics?
Monet X Change
Not particularly. I'm impressed by gymnastics, but I don't, like, follow them. I mean, I was excited for Simone Biles. Simone Biles.
Bob the Drag Queen
Simone.
Monet X Change
Simone. And I think Simone Biles is the only gymnast I can name.
Bob the Drag Queen
Nancy Kerrigan. Ali Raisman.
Monet X Change
Nancy Carrigan is not a gymnast. She's a skater.
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, I think about the other white lady with the blonde hair that was really popping in 2008 in Sydney.
Monet X Change
A gymnast.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. Natasha, Natalia, something with some nat name. Gabby Douglas.
Monet X Change
Simone Biles is the only gymnast I can name. And nope, Simone Biles. End of story.
Bob the Drag Queen
Dominique Dawes was really fierce. Yeah, I like. I'm a big olympiker. Wait, so that was Elon Musdeha, I think. Honey, what's up?
Monet X Change
You like the Olympics?
Bob the Drag Queen
I love Olympics.
Monet X Change
I like, you know, Leslie Jones loves the Olympics.
Bob the Drag Queen
Mm. When I. This past year, we were filming All Stars during. Cause they moved the Olympics a year over because 2020 was unable to happen. So they did it 2021. And every time that we would come back from shooting, we were on the weekends when we have our two days off. I would watch Olympics all day in my room. And then when we come back at night, I would go and put the TV on NBC to see all what I missed, all the highlights and stuff that was going on. I love the. I love Olympic season is my favorite season. My favorite. I love watching those sports.
Monet X Change
Yeah, I don't love sports. I mean, I did enjoy watching the X Games when we were. When we were there, it was fun to watch the X Games, but I think it's because I was there, like, on tv. It's less exciting. Everything. Not everything, but most things are just way more exciting when you watch them in person. Like, when I went to go see Dancing with the Stars, it was a very riveting experience. I don't think I would have that same experience watching it on Disney. But when I was there, I was like, this is so Exciting.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, really?
Monet X Change
Yeah, it was really thrilling to watch.
Bob the Drag Queen
How was your time? Did Shangela do well that night?
Monet X Change
She did.
Bob the Drag Queen
She.
Monet X Change
She came in fourth. I believe I said this already. Like, I don't know if I Have I talked about the answer on the podcast yet?
Bob the Drag Queen
No.
Monet X Change
So I, I only was watching Wayne Brady and Shangela's clips online because I don't really know the other ones that much that well. And watching Shangela's club, like, wow, Shangela could win. She's doing a really good job. Then I went there and Shangela did a good job. She went first and then this girl, Charli d' Amelio went.
Bob the Drag Queen
Charlie from.
Monet X Change
From.
Bob the Drag Queen
She's a tick tock girl.
Monet X Change
Yeah. Charli D' Amelio is an 18 year old professional dancer. Dancing? Yes. She's a pro. She's been dancing since she was five years old. She's literally a professional dancer. She's 18 years old. And basically everyone else left in the competition is over 40. Some of them are in their 50s, maybe even in their 60s. And except this one guy, the deaf actor is in his 30s to 30s also. He might be 32 actually. But like she's about half the age of the next person and less than half the age of everyone else. And she's a professional dancer. So the show is based on how you can dance and who votes for you. She has over 100 million TikTok followers. So no one's gonna get more votes than her and no one's gonna dance better than her.
Bob the Drag Queen
But listen, maybe, Maybe these kids.
Monet X Change
I'm not done. She's on a Disney show right now. She has a show on Disney and the show's on Disney. She's on the. She's on her home network. She has over 100 million TikTok followers. I don't even. Doesn't even count Instagram, YouTube and Twitter in parlor. No, I'm kidding. And then she's a professional dancer. How is anyone gonna beat Charli d'? Amelio?
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, stranger things have happened, right? You know, they wanted us to do, you and I to do their reality show.
Monet X Change
What reality show?
Bob the Drag Queen
Charli and her sister, Charlie and Chippy or Charli and Abby? One of them.
Monet X Change
The d' Amelio is Dixie.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, Charli and Dixie. They have a. I love the name.
Monet X Change
Dixie D'. Amelio. That's a great name. Dixie D'. Amemelio.
Bob the Drag Queen
She sounds like a drag queen, right? Dixie D'. AmelIO.
Monet X Change
Hey, y', all, it's me, Dixie D'. Amelio.
Bob the Drag Queen
And they wanted us to come and do this thing. This. They wanted us to come and do something on their. On their. On their. They have a Snapchat show. They wanted to come do it. And we said, no, I couldn't do it. I didn't know what happened, but I could not do this.
Monet X Change
I don't. I don't even remember the offer.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, but they wanted. Cause they do. Because their whole thing. They wanted sibling rivalry. They wanted to, like, a sibling rivalry because they were doing their sisters. That kind of. Sometimes I don't really like how sometimes,
Monet X Change
like, people want us to show up and do things in drag. I'm like, but it doesn't make sense. Like, why would we be in drag at the mall? Like. Like. Like, why would we just. Like, why would we just be randomly in drag? And I think that I. People used to give RuPaul shit for not want to go everywhere in drag, but I get it. Like, why would I be. Why would I be at this in drag? Why would I do. Why would I be doing that in drag?
Bob the Drag Queen
I think it changes from queen to queen. Some queens only want to be in drag. Cracker. It shouldn't be a thing, but, you know, I don't care. Cracker. They want to film a. A scene of Cracker going to sleep. Cracker is going to do it in drag. Cracker loves doing stuff in drag. So I think it varies from queen to crazy.
Monet X Change
I want to make it clear I'm talking about myself. I'm not speaking for anyone but myself. I guess I need to make that distinction. I don't know why I would want to be. If we're shopping. Why the fuck would I be shopping in full drag? Like, me. Yeah, I agree. That doesn't even make sense. That doesn't even make sense to me.
Bob the Drag Queen
It depends on the scene. It depends on what it is. Like, sometimes I want to be, sometimes I don't. It depends. Honestly, it varies from thing to thing for me.
Monet X Change
Well, then the scene is just about you being in full drag at the mall. It's not actually about. You know what I mean? I kind of liken it to, like, it's not the same. Because. Because my drag isn't a character. I don't have a drag Persona, per se. But, like, if you asked Tom Holland to come, you wouldn't be like, and we hope you wear the Spider man outfit.
Bob the Drag Queen
That's a little different. That's how I.
Monet X Change
That's how I feel. I'm not. Again, I want to read it. I am not talking about you or Anyone else, I'm talking about myself. But it'd be like if a doctor was like, and we need you to wear your scrubs. Like, we want you to come do this thing and we need you in scrubs. And I'm like, why, why would I be in. Why would I be at the. Why would I be at that thing in scrubs? That doesn't make sense to me.
Bob the Drag Queen
I see what you're saying. I don't think it's a perfect comparison, but I get what you're saying.
Monet X Change
Well, the reason why I said is because for me, my drag feels like my, my work clothes. You know what I mean? For me, my drag feels like my, my work clothes. And I guess I am at things in work sometime, but in, but not in that same capacity. You know what I mean? Like, if a doctor came onto a TV show to talk about Dr. Ness, I can see an instance where maybe he would wear his scrubs to give him more validity, to give him more credibility as a doctor. Because that's the way you can instantly say, boom, this person's a doctor, they're wearing scrubs. Look, you can trust what they're saying.
Bob the Drag Queen
Or a lab coat with a stethoscope, something like that. Yeah, some, some, some markers that you're a doctor.
Monet X Change
Exactly. Or like, but, but I am also kind of like, if someone is a firefighter, I can just kind of trust that you're a firefighter. You don't have, you don't have to wear the uniform for me to.
Bob the Drag Queen
I think with TV and film. And so this one is just, it's all for the theatrics, all for the, all for the extra. Like, if you have a firefighter coming on the Good Day New York, they're coming in their full firefighter outfit because it's all about the spectacle and the extra and the drama of tv.
Monet X Change
Oh, yeah, I think I get that. And I think I'm realizing as I do more reality television and documentary based television, I don't think I'm that kind of extra. Like, when I do a show and I see the way that other people around me react and behave and how they change when the camera turns on, I just think to myself, I'm just not that kind of person. That's just not the kind of. That's just not the kind of person you are. Not that I.
Bob the Drag Queen
You're not that kind of girl.
Monet X Change
I'm not that kind of girl. Yeah. I don't have an on camera Persona that I like, turn on when I'm on camera. Even on stage. I mean, I'm a little heightened when I do my standup, but my standup isn't like. It's basically just. It's very similar to, I think, the way that I talk nowadays or right in this moment.
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, they recently wanted us to do something in drag. And then they sent the email and Patti raised to me. I said, absolutely not. And they were like, but what? I was like, no money.
Monet X Change
And I were asked to do a podcast interview of a reality TV person. They wanted us to podcast with them in drag.
Bob the Drag Queen
I said, bitch, we don't do our part. We don't ever do. We don't even do our one that we make that we.
Monet X Change
Our thing is. Yeah, like, that's just not a thing. That's just not a thing for us. And that's what I mean. That's what I mean. I think that's how I feel. Even if we're here, bitch, I'm barely in drag on We're Here. I do drag two days when we're here.
Bob the Drag Queen
You do wear a lot of bear drag. You wear a lot of bear drag on there.
Monet X Change
I dress like a bear all the time, every episode. And not just polar bear, grizzly bear, a Fire island bear, P. Town bear, a Care Bear.
Bob the Drag Queen
My favorite. The care Bear ones are my favorite. You look great.
Monet X Change
I really wanted to do white chicks this year for Halloween, and I was gonna either do both of them myself or do one with you, but I don't think we'd ever actually been able to plan.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay, can we. Can we shake that? We'll try to do it next year.
Monet X Change
We'll try.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, let's try.
Monet X Change
We'll try.
Bob the Drag Queen
And then we're. But we have to wear the swan outfits. That's the most iconic one.
Monet X Change
Well, swan in the Flamingo.
Bob the Drag Queen
Swano. Flamingo. Yeah, we had to do that. Oh, my God, Bob. Not a full. Are we getting fully sprayed? Are we gonna be wearing a leotard, but just spray this.
Monet X Change
Well, I. I mean, I'm not gonna spray. I just put on Dermablend or something. I'm not gonna spray my face.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh. I mean, I think if we go do it like cardi B. You got. You got to get it airbrushed on. That's the way to make sure it doesn't move. Like, to make sure you can do
Monet X Change
it on your side. I'm just gonna put on some Dermablend, which is. Which is, by the way, full coverage foundation, like Dermablend. It is. Is not a game.
Bob the Drag Queen
But on your body, though. I'm saying, on your body, I would wear.
Monet X Change
I mean, you know, most. I don't know how long it's been since you've watched the show, but they're usually wearing long sleeves. They're usually pretty covered up. They're not wearing, like, bikinis and stuff.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay.
Monet X Change
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
If we. If we were gonna do, like, body, I was gonna say,
Monet X Change
I mean, I think we should do a pretty close interpretation of White Chicks.
Bob the Drag Queen
White chicks? White Chicks. Swan. I'm just gonna bring it up. Oh, yeah. They're in, like, full sleeve thingies. Oh, no. Oh, yeah, they were.
Monet X Change
They're wearing. Yeah, they're wearing, like, stockings and stuff all over the body.
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, but ours gotta be cuter, though. Hours gotta be cuter.
Monet X Change
I'm gonna wear leggings. You can feel free to get your whole body sprayed. I will not be doing that. Also, not to mention, I'm still gonna pad, so I'd be spraying my legs and then covering them up.
Bob the Drag Queen
Bob, in this. You don't need to pad in this. Look at this outfit. You don't need to pad in that girl.
Monet X Change
Well, I mean, we're still deciding which ones, right?
Bob the Drag Queen
We said the swan and the flamingo, right?
Monet X Change
We did. Yes, we did. It's all happening very fast.
Bob the Drag Queen
You know what? If y' all are lucky, maybe you'll get it before Halloween. Honey, maybe Bob and I. This would be a nice little New Year surprise for you.
Monet X Change
Do you remember when Bjork wore the swan dress?
Bob the Drag Queen
No, I don't know a lot about Bjerg. I'm not Bjork. Gay. Not because I don't think she's talented. I don't know a lot about her.
Monet X Change
So. Bjork famously wore a swan dress. Bjork famously wore a.
Bob the Drag Queen
We don't rap. We don't rap. We do it raw.
Monet X Change
Jacob, I've heard. I've heard.
Bob the Drag Queen
I heard that you wanted to come for me, but I don't believe it's true.
Monet X Change
You know, something just stuck in my head. I can have my Gucci on. I can wear my Louis Vuitton. But even if nothing on, I. I made you look. I made you look.
Bob the Drag Queen
Wait, I do know that.
Monet X Change
Yeah, it's gonna get stuck in your head.
Bob the Drag Queen
What is that from? How do I.
Monet X Change
Why do I know it's Meghan Trainor?
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, no, I don't know that. Then,
Monet X Change
like, do you know what Roxxxy
Bob the Drag Queen
Andrews performed recently, and I immediately thought about you.
Monet X Change
What?
Bob the Drag Queen
No. Latrice. Latrice and I. That gig I made, I had to make make up in Cleveland. Which was so fun, by the way. Everyone should go to this new. Oh, my God, the Fire. It's the Fire, the new club that just opened up in Cleveland. It's like the multi. It's like a rec center. The club. It is, really. They're ahead of their time. They're making this beautiful queer community. It's such a. Such a beautiful club, and it was a great gig. But Latrice came on, and she did pass me a drink. I'm important.
Monet X Change
Oh, my God, I love that song by Ms. 007.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. Eenie meenie miney moe. Yeah.
Monet X Change
I was like, great song.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, it was a really good song. I thought about you.
Monet X Change
That's great. That's great. That's.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. Actually, 007, maybe 007, I could do a song on my album.
Monet X Change
I don't think she does music anymore. She's a model now. Like, a model. I don't think she's done music in a very long time.
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, but she can do it. Maybe she'll dust off the old pipes for Lil Monet.
Monet X Change
Dust off the microphone.
Bob the Drag Queen
Ms. 007 is her Instagram.
Monet X Change
Yeah. Well, I don't know if that's her Instagram, but her rap name is Ms. 007.
Bob the Drag Queen
Got it. Yeah. I don't. It's just a bunch of white bitches when I just did that.
Monet X Change
Pass me a drink. I'm important. Mirror's on my hand. I'm important. I'm coming through, bitch. I'm gorgeous. Yeah. I love Ms. 007.
Bob the Drag Queen
Not you with the fucking zebra shirt. I gag. I was like. I was like, aquarius sold merch for this, too. This bitch is doing too much.
Monet X Change

You know, I feel very great. I'm still in my Halloween bag. I'm giving you orange and green. It's giving very pumpkin. And, yeah, I have to say, so
Monet X Change

Bob the Drag Queen
Do you know what I did today that was kind of sobering? What? I paid my mortgage. My first mortgage payment.
Monet X Change
What do you mean, sobering?
Bob the Drag Queen
Like, it's very. Like, it, like, sobered me up. Like, it felt very adult. Like, I was, like, sobering up to be an adult.
Monet X Change
Congratulations. That sounds amazing.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. I was like, wow. Like, there have been many milestones in my life. I'm like, oh, I'm an adult now. Like, when I had first moved into my Own place. Or when I got on Drag Race and I got my first job, when I got my first health insurance. But this is one of those. I'm like, wow, bitch, I am an adult. Like, bitch, I am an adult. This is crazy. I'm an adult. I'm what my parents are doing. Like, I am an adult.
Monet X Change
Today I had some mortgage problems.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, yeah. With your thing with your identity.
Monet X Change
Because my mortgages are automatically set to be paid through my bank accounts, which are now closed. But you also can't change the automatic payment within five days of. So it was just gonna post. So it just. My mortgage is late. Two mortgages, both late.
