[Monet X Change]

Drag Queen and I'm Monet x Change.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And this is sibling rivalry. On this week's episode, Monet meets Rihanna.

[Monet X Change]

We do advisory and we find out.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What made Monet say this.

[Monet X Change]

That is probably the blackest shit about you. And we find out what made Bob say this.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I got a rack In a back that'll make a duck quack. One, two, three. Wait, were we actually counting in time together?

[Monet X Change]

I think so.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Count with me. 1, 2, 1, 3, 2, 4. No, we were not counting in time.

[Monet X Change]

No, I, I, I was a good bit. I was good with.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Wait. Count with me. One.

[Monet X Change]

One.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Two, Two, three.

[Monet X Change]

Three, four.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Four. Wait. Oh, my God.

[Monet X Change]

It's pretty close.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That's crazy. Y'all. Y'all don't know this? I have suffered. I have suffered. I have suffered.

[Jacob]

Clap.

[Monet X Change]

Think she's a.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I have suffered with bad Internet. And basically everywhere I have lived, it has been a. Y'all. For the past 12 years, I have just happened to live in areas with bad Internet, and I call up Comcast or whoever, and they're like, yeah, you just live in area bad Internet. I'm like, do I get a discount? Do I get a discount? No, you just live in a, In a, In a. In an area with bad Internet. Sorry. It is what it is, my boy.

[Monet X Change]

Well, I think the fact that I.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Have good Internet here at this studio is just so, like, I'm so happy.

[Monet X Change]

There's no way that's true. I think these companies, they just say that there's no way that there's no way that everywhere you live had bad Internet. Cause I used to have the same problem, too. That's just not how that works. I think their Internet is just. Internet is just unreliable, and they just can't do the thing. There's no way that we just happen to always live in bad Internet.

[Jacob]

Well, specifically, our issue is that Hollywood has a lot of, like, old infrastructure that needs to be updated. And, and our specific area of Los Angeles doesn't have, like, the, the newest Internet cables like, that run into our building because you're on kind of like a vagina a block over where my studio is. I get, like, great Internet because, like, the cables are connected, but they're just not hooked up to our neighborhood or our building.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Do you know that the Internet is running on a cable at the bottom of the ocean?

[Monet X Change]

Is that really how I was running Google that?

[Jacob]

Yeah, yeah. It was a big scandal because, like, somebody in the. Let me just say, I'm not going to recount this perfectly. Do your own research and find the story. There was, like, some government official army guy who, like, leaked the location of the underground, like, Internet, cable, like, publicly for, like, it's, like, out there in the world now. So if you want to go take down the Internet cable, you can wait.

[Monet X Change]

What?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It's just. It's just one Internet cord. That sounds. I. There's just one, by the way. It's huge. It's not like a. It's not like. It's not like this.

[Monet X Change]

Can I show you these pants I got? How cute these are?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, they are cute, right? They're little. Little boho.

[Monet X Change]

Very boho. Very, very, very boho.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Why do we say bohe?

[Monet X Change]

Wait, why Bonique?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Bohemian. Like, bohemian.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, I don't know.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So this is the court. Yo, this court is gigantic. It's not big. Is that just a small court? This cord is huge. I think it. I think it might be like, the size of a person. Like, thick as a person. Maybe even thicker.

[Monet X Change]

Girl, that's the damn HDMI cord.

[Jacob]

But also to be clear, it's not. There's not one chord that does the entire Internet. There are multiple ones.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That's what Bob said.

[Monet X Change]

Bob said. Y'all. Do you know there's one. Hgmi.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I did not say that. What I'm saying is. What I'm saying is, like, it's not. Not all done through satellites. They're like chords.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, that's interesting.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That really gagged me.

[Monet X Change]

And where. Where is this cord going to?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Nation to nation, nationwide.

[Monet X Change]

So, like, when you say when you.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Sorry.

[Monet X Change]

So when you send something to the.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Uk, I never make a face when.

[Monet X Change]

I sing through this chord. If I'm sending. If I'm sending a dick pic to someone in the UK is going through this chord.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

They also go to satellites too, though.

[Monet X Change]

So what is the cord doing?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't know what the cord's doing, but this cord is doing some Internet stuff.

[Monet X Change]

You the one that brought up the cord now?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You don't know. I don't know what to do. I don't know everything about it, but I'm just saying I gagged when I found out that some of our Internet or a lot of our Internet is on this fucking cord or on these cords.

[Monet X Change]

Okay, so. But when do we get the cord then? Tell me.

[Jacob]

Yeah, so they go between countries.

[Monet X Change]

Okay. And have you, Bob, have you seen this cord?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I do not get into the ocean.

[Monet X Change]

That is probably the blackest shit about you.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, I don't get in the ocean. Everything you is a myth, right? This is everything I do. Everything I do.

[Monet X Change]

I mean, all the black people I know. I'm also from an island, so I grew up with black people loving the ocean, but I feel it's like a big thing that a stupid. What you call. What's it. We're looking for stupid stereotype that black people don't like to swim or black people don't like water. I'm like, a lot of black people love the water. That is this.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, I can't swim.

[Monet X Change]

And I. I've offered to teach you, and that's going to be another. Anything you can do. I'm going to teach you how to swim in my pocket.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You swim?

[Monet X Change]

Yes.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You from Maryland? D.C. maryland.

[Monet X Change]

Black people like the water. You. Y'all. Y n. You the only one that don't like the water.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, that's not true. My family don't swim. Ain't no beaches in Atlanta.

[Monet X Change]

There is. There are beaches in Atlanta. I saw them in the Color Purple.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like the one you got dragged. Okay. Color Purple does not take place in Atlanta, Georgia. This is what drives me crazy about that scene from the Color Purple. It drives me crazy in the new Color Purple. They're at the beach. Do y'all know how long it would take to walk from the swamp to the shore? They did it in one song. They did it in one song also. The coast of Georgia is not cute, y'all. It's not like. It's not like the beaches don't get nice till you get to, like, North Carolina or go down to Florida. It is rocky. It is cliffs. The coast of Georgia is not like, ooh, let's. I'm sure there are a few spots where, like, the coast of Georgia is not giving what y'all think it is.

[Monet X Change]

Let me look up. I'm gonna go right now. The coast of Georgia coast.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It be looking like the Galapagos.

[Monet X Change]

Of Georgia beaches. There we go. That's the third search. Ok. No, Georgia has some nice beaches.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, you go down there. Oh, but. Oh, but Chicago's beaches are shit. Do you want to apologize for what you said about Chicago's beaches?

[Monet X Change]

I said what? I said Chicago doesn't have. Those are not real beaches. Those are fucking fake beaches. That's not real.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Atlanta literally has fake beaches.

[Monet X Change]

No, this is a real beach.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Atlanta is not Atlanta.

[Monet X Change]

Atlanta.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Bob, look at Bob. These.

[Monet X Change]

These Georgia coast beaches are nice. What are you talking about?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I ain't never went over there. I don't go to the beach.

[Monet X Change]

Now Bob saying, girl, this is nice. I want to go there. I'm looking at these images of these beaches. Jekyll. Jekyll Island. There's Tybee Island. Tybee island is cute.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't think it look nice.

[Monet X Change]

I mean, why?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Why?

[Monet X Change]

All the houses on it look like plantations, though. I don't like that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Because they wear plantations. Monet.

[Monet X Change]

I know. I don't like it. Okay, I have a question.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Huh? You ever been to a plantation?

[Monet X Change]

No, and I would not want to go there. I'm not interested. I think I'll be full of rage. Just like when people go to the point of the return in Africa. When I see videos of that, I can't even watch the videos on social media because it gets me so angry.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Do you remember a couple years ago, you and I wanted to walk the path?

[Monet X Change]

Underground Railroad, by the way.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Just because Underground Railroad is not all. It wasn't all walking. There were, like, carriages and stuff. There's no one Underground railroad. But I wanted to walk from Maryland to Pennsylvania.

[Monet X Change]

That's crazy, Mitch.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Harriet Tubby used to walk from Maryland to Canada.

[Monet X Change]

That's crazy.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Canada.

[Monet X Change]

How long would it take her to do that?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, first she was going to Maryland, but then the Fugitive Slave act passed. And then anywhere any formerly enslaved people anywhere in the country. These are not from the other day. This is from yesterday. Any formerly enslaved people.

[Monet X Change]

Y'all, we changed on camera. They know we changed.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Y'all didn't see that. And gaslighting is not real. So then after the Fugitive Slave act passed, no matter where you were in the country, if you were a former slave person, you were a fugitive. And if you helped them, you were also a fugitive.

[Monet X Change]

How long would it take her to walk to Canada?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

A couple months, maybe a month. It's not all just walking.

[Monet X Change]

I think I could do it in a week.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

In a week?

[Monet X Change]

Just walking? I walk pretty fast.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Do you walk fast?

[Monet X Change]

I do.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, as a gay New Yorker, walking fast is, like, part of, like, I cannot when people walk slow. Unless you can't walk fast. Bitch move.

[Monet X Change]

But it's more annoying when it's a bunch of people trying to get something done, like on the sidewalk. And then one bitch is walking slow. Or even at the airport. People walk slow in front of me at the airport. That should be irritating.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You know what really pisses me the fuck off? If you need to stop walking, move to the fucking side. Yeah.

[Monet X Change]

Don't do it in the middle at.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

The airport with your luggage just to stop walking while traffic is flowing behind you. You're going to prison.

[Monet X Change]

I agree.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You're going to prison, and I'm calling the cops. That shit drives me. I hate that shit. It drives me insane. You know? You know who's the worst? People who stop at the top of the stairs.

[Monet X Change]

Yes.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You know what's even crazier? People who stop at the top of the escalator.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, that's like, bitch, we're coming.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We can't not come.

[Monet X Change]

Let's also, I. I literally read dejuan for this earlier. Dejuan cannot walk in a straight line. If dejuan and I walk in dejuan, we were walking dejuan. It was slowly. I'd be like, nigga, can you walk a straight fucking line, please?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Maybe he. Maybe his depth perception, not depth. Maybe he needs those. Those blinders.

[Monet X Change]

The one be like, I want to crash into you. That fucking Beyonce song, bitch. It's crazy. Dejuan cannot walk in a straight line.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I mean, I'm a pretty. Let me tell you right now, I'm a mover and a shake. When it comes to walking, baby, I be. I be zip. I be zipping.

[Monet X Change]

What does that mean? What is. What I get? Mover. What is a shaker?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

A mover and a shaker. Someone who just gets things done. You're a mover and a shaker.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, but why I get. I know the turn of phrase.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Your life. And you're shaking things up, I think.

[Monet X Change]

Shaking things up. Okay.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Do you zip through.

[Monet X Change]

Like, in walking?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, bitch. In scooting, yes. In walking, if I'm on a mission.

[Monet X Change]

Like, nobody just walk in at a good pace. But I'm not like. I'm not like swerving through lanes on a fucking. On a highway. No, no.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

In New York City, when I walk, I am literally zipping through everyone. I am zip, zap, zipping. I. I can't. I'm slide.

[Monet X Change]

When Bob and I used to first hang out in New York, and Bobby used to get these little cloth shoes from fucking Payless. And Bob used to have his little. His little booty short overalls on.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I booty shorts. They went to my thigh. My mid thigh girl, though, Bob, they.

[Monet X Change]

Were above your mid thigh. You know, those were your little. Your little hoochie daddy shorts. Don't put on for the camera. Those are your little hoochie daddy joints. And it's cute and I have a picture of it. You just looted my contact image for you.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Are we sharing contact images? Oh, we.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, let me know. Make sure your number not on there. You sharing contact images because Bobby on some bullshit.

[Monet X Change]

But we went to west side Market that night, though.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I used to love taking pictures of Monet at West side Market. Monet used to get these salads that she swore was healthy.

[Monet X Change]

They were healthy. They were very healthy salads. I used to get chicken once.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It's drowning in salt and dressing. It's not healthy anymore.

[Monet X Change]

Okay, first of all, you see, that's how much you don't know me. I don't like. I don't like a lot of dressing on my salad.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That's how much you don't know me.

[Monet X Change]

So I'm trying, I'm really trying to hold in tears. I am so.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm sorry, Monet. I'm sorry that you're not hanging out with Rihanna. I'm sorry, what do you. How can I. How can I help?

[Monet X Change]

I don't know if you can help you. When you went into Traitors, you should have like had a shout out when you got eliminated instead of saying, I swear to God, I should have said Rihanna, Monae loves you and I am a trader. Be out. That's what you should have did for me.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, what can I do going forward?

[Monet X Change]

Not to be cool when we talk about these brands, I can reach out.

[Jacob]

To em and be like, hey, my friend really likes Rihanna. Can you connect them?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That's what you could do. Like, how do we get you and Rihanna in the same room? Will you be cool though?

[Monet X Change]

Yes, I would be cool. I've met a lot of bit. I met Sza and I was cool.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Ready?

[Monet X Change]

Ok. Hi.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Hello.

[Monet X Change]

Oh my God. Rihanna. My name is Monet. I'm a drag queen.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Monet, I know about you.

[Monet X Change]

What do you know?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You did a podcast.

[Monet X Change]

Yes, with my best friend Bob.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, me listen to your. Me listen to your podcast. From TM to tm.

[Monet X Change]

Tm.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What's he laughing for?

[Monet X Change]

Really? I just, I thought you were Beijing. I didn't know you were Scottish.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You know what? We doing this thing when you hear me accent the other time, that's not the real way we talking. This how me talking.

[Monet X Change]

Okay, so it's kind of like Jamaica Scottish.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Me mommy Scottish. Me father from Barbados. Me raised in Jamaica.

[Monet X Change]

Wow. Multi. I don't know how multicultural you were. Again, more reasons why I just love you so much.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

People don't know about Rob and Rihanna Fenty in the way. You know about me. No, I like your podcast. Some of the stuff your co host say, Sherry. Sherry, what's the word they say? Oh, make me mad. Irie.

[Monet X Change]

Irie is a good thing.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, yes, good.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. Okay, so you're on the podcast.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Let me listen. It make me airy, but some of it a little shady.

[Monet X Change]

It is a little shady. And I, I, I personally wanna, on behalf of me and my co host Bob, I wanna apologize for anything that you may have heard that was unsavory.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Me wants an apology from him. You want to hang out with me? I need an apology from him on the podcast. He got texted on all socials.

[Monet X Change]

Let me tell you something. I will deliver him his head like John the Baptist. Okay? I would apology.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Once he give me an apology, then you get to hang out with me.

[Monet X Change]

Ok? I will get an apology.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Also, that bad impersonation he done on me on that one episode. May want that episode taken down.

[Monet X Change]

Ok. I am texting the editors, the powers that be right now. It will be scrub from the Internet. No one will ever know it even existed. For Urianna. I love you.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Scene 2 Mo, I heard you were running to Rihanna.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, girl. I saw her at the Delta Lounge. She was reading a book. She's reading actually your book. Harriet Tubman.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That's amazing.

[Monet X Change]

She's a really big fan of you, Bob. Yeah, she told me how much she loved the book. How she like maybe Is want to think about investing in it for Broadway. Actually, weirdly, you said that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yes.

[Monet X Change]

At the Delta Lounge. She is obsessed with you. One thing, though.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What?

[Monet X Change]

She's not really fond of the impersonations you've done of her and some other stuff on the podcast. So we need to take that episode down.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And take it down. It's like it's our most viewed episode.

[Monet X Change]

I know, but we have other ones.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And we also won NAACP award for that episode.

[Monet X Change]

I know.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

They'll take our award back if we take the episode down.

[Monet X Change]

But that's small. Those are small fries. We have bigger fish to fry, so I think we take that down. And one more thing that she would really appreciate is just an organization of words that you can say to camera that will. A speech. Yeah, like a speech to camera. Just saying that you didn't mean to hurt anyone's feelings about.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I've never been in Hariana's feelings.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. So then. So then. So then you would love. So then the video will be no. Will be no problem for you to make Scene three.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

All right, everyone, let's make this video real quick. All right. Hey, Rihanna, thank you so much for wanting to invest in my book. That's amazing. Like, I did not know you wanted to invest in this. And.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, no, no, wait, wait. She said just to. Don't say that part. She doesn't want it public knowledge. So we'll talk about that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Okay, here we go. Hey, Rihanna. It's me, Bob, the direct kid. I heard you were a huge fan of mine. Thank you so much. I love you. You were actually. You were so amazing at the Super Bowl. I mean, there's a reason why you're one of the highest streamer artists. And by the way, I obviously would never mean to hurt your feelings, but that. But you got to admit, my impression is she was really funny. Oh, men making fun of yellow accent. It is so funny. So I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'm going to go ahead and post this to socials right now. I love you so much, Rihanna. How dare you say that on camera, bitch. But you can't if you want. You have to be truthful. You trying to do sneaky little sneaky shit. That's why you didn't get the apology you wanted. Do you think Sza listen to the podcast?

[Monet X Change]

I don't. When I met Sza that one time at acl, she's probably like, bitch, stop talking about it. I was like, I can't stop talking about it. Changed my life. And she. She said that her and her team love me, so I don't know. I don't know. I don't know if that means drag. Probably Drag Race, probably not. The podcast.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Do you think they know I do a SIS impersonation?

[Monet X Change]

I hope not, to be honest.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It's really funny, though.

[Monet X Change]

It's not funny, but what we need to get into. Is this supposed to be an advisory. We have not given anyone advice.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, my God, no.

[Jacob]

I mean, I don't. I wouldn't. If we're on a good roll, we can keep going.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I have a question, because we know that this is Yalls favorite segment on the podcast. Y'all love when we do advisory, baby. The subscription rates drop down, the viewership drops. There's protests outside of Sibling Rivalry Studios in downtown la. It is wild. So back by popular demand, Actually. I love advisory.

[Monet X Change]

I like advisory, too. I think, y'all. We're not doing a whole season of advisory. We just want to just put one in because it's been a. I think it's been a long time since we've given advice. So just a little. This is not a season of advisory. Just a little pop up, let y'all know.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It was either this or another episode with British accents. So be lucky, be happy you got what you got.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Jacob]

So I still stand by that being a peak episode for us.

[Monet X Change]

I hated that episode.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think that next to the Todrick episode, it was the. One of our harshest criticisms we've ever gotten for an episode.

[Monet X Change]

But what's so crazy about the Todrick one was that it happened. I think, like, we did the episode, it came out and you were on a cruise, so it was just me and Jacob going toe to toe with the Patriots. Jerry and Jacob being like, this is crazy.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Okay. This sounds fun. You know, Monet, I do want to say out loud, I. I want you to be with Rihanna. I do. I will. Has Rihanna ever DM'd me? I wonder. She's DM'd you before, haven't you?

[Jacob]

No, she's DM'd Heidi. Do you want me to reach out to Heidi?

[Monet X Change]

Riyadh gonna do.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, I've never gotten an invite from her. Wow. It doesn't say follow back. Wow. Rihanna doesn't follow me. That's crazy.

[Monet X Change]

Doesn't follow me either.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm starting to build our bridge. I am now following Rihanna. The bridge is being built. Does she follow any RU girls?

[Monet X Change]

She follows Simone.

[Jacob]

Nina West.

[Monet X Change]

She follows Nina West. Mohart. Mohart. Nina West. Simone.

[Jacob]

I believe Heidi in closet.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Interesting.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, I think I think these are the seasons she watched Rihanna.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

All right, let's give some advice.

[Monet X Change]

Let's do it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Okay. In fact, let's take a short break and then we'll give some advice.

[Listener]

Hey Barbara Monet, I'm so excited to be sending this message for sibling advisory. I would like you to maybe give me some advice on what to do next in my life or some suggestions really just to say that I am 39 years old, I am Afro European, living in Germany, turning turning 40 in six months time and kind of reconsidering things because I've kind of accomplished everything I set out to do when I was a teenager. So I'm first in my family to actually graduate from high school. Went on to get degree master's PhD in a STEM subject in a top two globally university. So very competitive. Kind of had quite a few scholarships along the way as well. But there are so many other things I'm interested in including maybe reality TV production, I don't know, maybe onlyfans and yeah, like but what do I do when I'm also the only financially stable person in my family really? So a lot of the time they depend on me and I've done a lot of the similar moves that Bob has done as well in helping his family and ensuring that, you know, they are financially stable. Yeah. So would love to hear what you have to say about that. Also to say I am monation. So sorry Bob. No one's perfect in that vein. Would love another issue of the thick icon shorts. I've got broad shoulders, but I also have a bubble butt. So it would be really nice this summer to rock those. Thank you very much.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

First of all, do we have visual aids? He's like, I'm fine. I got only fans. I'm rich, I'm smart. I got a big fat ass, big broad shoulder, a big old piece of meat hanging out the front. I got a rack in the back that'll make a duck quack. Like what is did he just come on just to be like I'm better than everyone. It's I'm smarter than you, I'm hotter than you. Everyone's. Everyone's. I'm better than all you hoes.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. This person has a. You sound like you have a lot going on for you, which is typical.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Before we give advice, y'all, we're not professionals. We're not therapists. We're not counselors. We're not doctors. We're not lawyers. We are drag queens. We're comedians. We're musicians. This is all. That's that. Those are our areas of expertise. Other than that, y'all, these are for. Yuck. Yuck. Do not get into any legal troubles because of the advice we give. Sorry. Go ahead, Monet.

[Monet X Change]

Oprah. Oprah had this guy. I forget the doctor on her podcast talking about psychedelics. Like, the use of psychedelics for, like, you know, whatever. And every five minutes, Oprah was like, y'all, I am not saying to you, go, do you. To partake in psychedelics. Consult your doctor. But it was so gaggy. Oprah talking about doing psychedelics on her podcast.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So she does them. Oprah went to Mesopotamia.

[Monet X Change]

No, she doesn't do them, but she was talking about the treatment anyway. So, you know, I think supporting your family while that is, you know, I'm sure they appreciate the help and whatever. Quenching your own desires and what you need to do to only support your family, I think will in long. In the long. In the long term. Long. Yeah, long term. Build resentments for you because you're not doing things that you want to do. So I think if the fear is, I won't be able to take care of my family, and they'll be mad at me because I don't want to, because I don't allow myself to do this thing, I don't think that's a good reason why. I think you. I think you can find other reasons that may be valid for you, but not doing. Not. Not. Not doing your own thing for some, for other people is not good in the long term. I think that you sound like you have so many avenues you can do. I guess if you've saved. If you've saved enough money, you've invested enough in yourself that you don't have to kind of worry about money, then honestly find out what. Like, maybe try something you haven't considered. Like, maybe that's like doing something in fine art. Maybe you start painting. Maybe you start doing other things that you never even thought that you could do. Like, I don't think fine art is something I could ever do. But if I was in a place where I really wanted to try a whole Bunch of stuff out. Maybe I would try it. If you want to do this onlyfans and bust it open for the Internet because you don't have to worry about. You don't care about what impact it might it have on you to get work or whatever, then I say do that too. But I say if you have all these things that you want, all these boxes you want to tick, try everything out and see what. See which is the one that sticks.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think you should. The first thing you should do is DM me a picture of this bubble butt. I want to see what you. What you working with. Honestly, if you would like, I would love to look at every picture you have before you post it on Only Fans. I'll. I'll do a quality control for all your videos. I'll say, this one's good, this one's great. Change the angle, spread the cheeks a little more, you know, give you. I think I'd be really good at helping you know what the fans want. I feel like I'm already a fan, although I have no clue what you look like. It just based on what you described, it sounds up my alley. I think I'd like to be up your alley. I'm sorry. That was crazy.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, wow.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So I'm submitting myself for. For quality control for your upcoming of endeavors. That's. That's. That's my soft pitch for myself. All right, go ahead, Jacob.

[Jacob]

Okay, here is the next question.

[Listener]

Hi, Monet and Bob. Hope you're doing well. Thanks for all your content. I am going to the Beyonce Cowboy Carter performance, and I'm so excited, but I want, like, an actual corset. I am a big booty girl and also have a bit of a tummy, and so I'd love to be corseted down. And I also was hoping that y'all would share where you buy your tights and stuff. So, like, what would y'all suggest for those things as a corset kind of newbie? I've had cheap corsets in the past, and definitely a tights newbie. At least a fancy tights. Thank you.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Those are the cute laugh. Oh, my God, that laugh was so cute. I mean, I'll go. So, okay, first of all, when we say. When we say big booty girl, how big is the booty? More than likely. I mean, depending on how big the booty is. You want to go to Capezio. Capezio sells. Also. What is your skin tone? Capezio doesn't go as dark as. I think they actually started restocking the dark tights. My tights that I have. So Capezio. This is a fun fact, and this is absolutely true. Beyonce, ironically, Beyonce was part of the black Capezio tight drought that happened in New York City.

[Monet X Change]

Was she really?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yes. Beyonce's team went and bought up a bunch of dark Capezios, and they. I remember going back one day, I said, I just could not find black Capezios. I could not find them. I cannot find. But also Capezio tight, in my opinion, be a little gray. There's a little grayness to them. So I've started bringing my. I've started making. I started making my own ties years ago. And it's just. They're just leggings. They're literally just leggings. I put the seam at the back of the leg so that I don't have to see from the front. Is everyone's business in the back. I don't have to see it myself. The seam goes at the back of the leg, and then I wear fishnets over that. You can also wear some flesh color fishnets or black fishnets. This is what a lot of the pop stars are doing, y'all. A lot of these pop stars are wearing pads. Not all these women are this curvy. A lot of these pop stars are wearing corsets. They're wearing pads. They're wearing waist trainers that make you think their body look like that. Their bodies do not look like that when they're not wearing their clothes. Some of them, you'll see them in their underwear, and then you'll see them in a gown. You're like, where do those curves come from, bitch? They're foam, bitch. Raymore and Flanagan on each hip. Okay. So I would say Capezio is a great place to get some tights from. If you can make tights or have someone make them for you. A pair of custom leggings, just go to the fabric store. You want one that has a little bit of shine to it, a little bit of shimmer to it, because, you know, your skin, it glistens. But. But tights don't glisten. Tights just are very, very matte when you buy them from dance store. Unless you get those shiny ones on purpose. Amanda, you want to tackle the corset?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. So, I mean, so you said you got. You got a corset before as a cheap one, and you want to, like, invest in a good corset. I would. I mean, depends on what city you live in. I mean, I would. I would. I would look for a corset Maker in your city, like. Cause, yes, you could go the Amazon route. I mean. I mean, I have found good corsets on Amazon before I started getting custom ones made. I found good ones that are. That would hone me in. And, y'all, once I would wear what I would be dancing, splitting, cartwheeling, and they would still hold me together.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Can you still do split?

[Monet X Change]

I have not done one in years. I don't know. I probably can. I had to stretch into it, though, and I have no. I have no intentions of ever doing one again. Wow.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She took out money and said, you're never gonna get it again. That's crazy. You took their money.

[Monet X Change]

But if not, you can find. I don't know what they're called. A corsetlier. Someone in your city who makes boned corsets.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What do you call someone who makes a corset? Ronnie? Is this a corset maker?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, a corset maker in your local town. And they will. And then you probably have to go to their office or wherever, they will do measurements of you and make sure it is a custom one for your body. Now, you're probably gonna end up spending about any $300, probably $500 for this custom corset. So know that going in, as opposed to getting one on Amazon for, like, between 50 and 150 bucks, maybe.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Also bear in mind, too, y'all, when you buy custom clothes, if you are bigger, you will spend more money because it is more fabric, because you're actually paying for the fabric itself.

[Monet X Change]

More. Yeah, more. More materials. More.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

When you go to a store, all the clothes are the same price, no matter how big they are. But when you are. But also, there's usually a lot of fabric left over. There's not that much fabric in a corset. A corset is not covering much of your body. We actually have an actual designer here who should probably help answer this question. Sorry. Go ahead, Monet.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah.

[Monet X Change]

So you want to. That's what you're going to be looking to invest in if you want a custom one. But also if you get a custom one made, then you never have to worry. I mean, not never, but it also depends on how much work you plan on doing. I don't envision you wearing it to do a drag show or you fucking throwing yourself around the stage. So of course it will last you a nice time, but it's a nice investment and something you can have that is yours that, you know, fits your body exactly how you want to. And when you make Custom ones, they can fit it to, like, you know, because sometimes custom ones on Amazon, they stop a little short, like after your. Your. Your belly button, and you need a little longer to cover more area down there. So, yeah, I think if you get a custom one made, it will fit you exactly and cover up all the areas you want to, whereas the one that you buy online won't be. Exactly. But it should be enough to do the job.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I also want to. I'm actually, I'm. I love talking about corsets. First of all, you have to remember this. Corsets are underwear. I'll say that again. Corsets are underwear, unless you specifically have. A corset is meant to be outerwear. So if you go somewhere like Orchard Discount Corsets, the corset I wore on Drag Race was from a place called Orchard Discount Corsets. You can buy them online. It is on the Lower east side of Manhattan. And they made the corset I wore all through Drag Race. They actually have. If you're buying starter corsets, they're actually pretty. Pretty good. This is a corset made by the brand Domino Couture, owned by Domino Joshua Shorts. This is the corset that I wear. This is underwear. I would never wear this corset over my clothes. This would be so tacky. This is meant to be worn under all of my clothes. There's sweat on this, y'all. This is. This corset's on her last leg. I. I think. I think she. I think this corset might have did her last show. Literally last night. My boning's coming out, but I wear these corsets into the ground. I wear them every single time I do drag. I dance in them, I walk in them, I do my shows in them, everything. So this. But this corset, after a while, it becomes. It starts shaping to your body. You see that the corset is already holding its shape. Can you tell?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, like, it's bit.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like it's already. It's. It starts to bend and curve to your body. Obviously, a custom corset is the best way to go. It is very, very, very expensive. But if you plan on wearing it outside of your body, don't go to Orchard Discount courses. Do not go. Do you want to go to an actual custom corset maker to have it so it can be shown on the outside? Otherwise, you're just wearing underwear on the outside of your clothes. And I think it looks really tacky. If you cannot afford to get a custom corset I would say go and buy a corset from somewhere like Orchard Discount Corsets, but then you can make a slip. You just make, literally make a tube for the smallest part of the corset, and then you tuck it into the top, you tuck it into the bottom, and it can match whatever fabric you're wearing. I feel like we should ask Ryan. Do you have any advice for this person wanting a corset? You want to come over here and say it close to the microphone because I, I love talking about fucking corsets. I, I, I, I am a corset trained girly. What, what, what do you say to this person who wants to.

[Jacob]

So first you want to get, like, I mean, if you're going to get a corset, you need to have either measurements of your body done, obviously, but you also need, like, sometimes people will make of, like, a form, like a dress form for your body, and then they will just continue to keep making corsets for your shape, for your body. But, like, you definitely want your, your measure, like, specific measurements. And you have to sometimes, if you have, like, problem areas, like, you know how most corsets just give you that hourglass shape, and the toning is just like, it's just in the center and there's just, like, the bones that are in those panels. But have you ever seen, like, a, like a Daniel Rosenberry for Schiaparelli corset where it has all of those really, like, intricate styles?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I've never seen that.

[Jacob]

So you'll sometimes see corsets that have, like, style lines that come down in different shapes. Different, like, because it's made specifically for your body. Like, say you have, like, a little bit of a belly that you want to, like, pull all that in so you'll have boning that is, like, why'd.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You look at me and say a little bit of ballet? I mean, why'd you look at me and say a little bit? That's crazy. You know, you're banished. You're banished back to the, Back to the. But, no, but. Go, Go get your own. Go. A custom corset. The thing. Okay, Last thing I'll say about corsets. Sorry, I know I'm going on about corsets. If you get a corse, that is outerwear, it doesn't match everything. So now you can only wear with certain things unless you get in, like, in, like, a flat color. So I wear this corset every day. It is just a black corset. It is underwear. It goes on top of nothing. But I have a few corsets that are literally meant to be outerwear, but I wear them so rarely because they just don't go with anything.

[Monet X Change]

Where's the brown one you want to see? Oh, to season nine.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

In the drawer up in there.

[Monet X Change]

Got it. Okay. I think we were.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And the yellow one that I Wore to season 10 when I was standing in the pit while you were up there doing your cartwheel.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Would you like me to share about courses? You want me to stop talking about one of my passions now?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, please. I think we've exhausted the course of conversation.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, you're exhausting.

[Monet X Change]

Let's go to the next one. Jacob.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Hey, Bob.

[Monet X Change]

And Monet.

[Listener]

My name is Ken. I use they. Them pronouns. So I'm graduating from Oregon State University in June, and I just got my grad cap in, and it's time to decorate. I really would love for it to be something drag related, because drag has been one of the main things to help me get through my college experience. And I specifically would love for it to be related to y'all, since y'all are my favorites. Y'all really got me through my five years of college. So if you had any ideas, I would love to hear them. Thank you. And I love you both so, so much.

[Monet X Change]

Okay, so I think it needs to. It needs to be, like, in the pink and black sibling rivalry color. Logo colors. If you do, like, a little, like, zigzag down the middle and put a little sibling logo in, like, on top of the zigzag, and then it has to have in, like, tape. Instead of say their names because you're graduating, say my name. I think that's a cute.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That's Priyanka's slogan. No, it's what's my name? Yeah.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. Well, yeah. What's my name?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think that it'd be really fun for you to go and meet queens when they're performing and get signed headshots of them and then frame them. That's, like, something I did in my home. Any queen who stayed at my home when I was in New York City, I had them sign their. Sign their picture and put it up, and I. And I frame them, and I put them up on my wall. I really, really love doing that. Also, framing T shirts, I think is really nice. I don't see very.

[Monet X Change]

What are you talking. She's talking about what? She wants to decorate her cap so she can wear it at graduation.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, they said grad cabin.

[Monet X Change]

No, her cap. Like the cap on your head. Oh, I thought, you know what people put like that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I thought that grad cabin was some phrase I didn't know about because I didn't go to grad school about what you call your dorm. I thought they called them undergrads, called them dorms, and the older people call them grad cabins.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, her graduation cap. Like the top of it, the little square.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm gonna stay with what I said.

[Monet X Change]

Get a bunch of prints and put them on the thing. I was like. Wait, what?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I was. I didn't know. I was so lost. I really thought she would call. I thought she said her grad cabin.

[Monet X Change]

No, no, no, no, no.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

They said. They. They said grad cap and. Sorry I. I misgendered you.

[Monet X Change]

Sorry.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

They said grad cap and they didn't say grad cabin.

[Monet X Change]

Yes.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Got it. Okay, we're back on track. So I think that I. Because when you. Your cap, you can always see it from the top, so it doesn't matter. You don't want to do the bottom side, right?

[Monet X Change]

No, only the top of it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I agree. I think the monat. I think you should split them down the middle. What colors did you say?

[Monet X Change]

Mo? Our colors. Pink and black. That's our logo.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I love that. Pink and black. I want to be on the black side because Elphaba, my name was me. On the pink side because she's Glenda, part of the establishment. One percenter. And I. Yeah. Actually, what Monet said is great, but if you ever think about decorating a room, just try that too. Try my. Try. Try my other. My other ideas were not bad.

[Monet X Change]

I think say my name was so cute.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Say my name the way. I did not know what the fuck they were talking about. That's crazy. I was so off base.

[Monet X Change]

You started talking. I was like, okay, that's a lot for a cap. But I was like. I was curious to where. To where it was going. I was like, let me see where this goes.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

All right, let's do another one. That's crazy.

[Listener]

Hi, Bob and Monet. I've been following you guys for like a decade, even when I lived in New York. Anyways, so I'm from la, born and raised near West Hollywood. I'm in my early ish, 30s. I'm 33, but. And I could really use your advice because I feel like I'm missing something. So here's my situation. I take care of myself, and I think I have a good thing going. I mix. So I have, like, tan olive skin, a brunette fuck ass Bob. Big brown eyes, a nice body, tits Ass, outgoing personality. I don't have any plastic surgery, no shade, but I'm all natural. So I don't think I come off as, like, fake or unapproachable like some girls in LA can. But whether I'm out in public or on the apps, the vibe's the same. Guys don't approach me and it's. Or seem confident enough to strike up a conversation. It's starting to feel like I'm literally invisible in my own city and. Or maybe I'm giving off a vibe that I don't mean to. Is it just an LA thing or am I doing something wrong? I'd love to hear your thoughts. What can I do to make myself more approachable? Thank you so much.

[Monet X Change]

Love you guys.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'll let Monet say this because I am very unapproachable. I do not look approachable at all. So, Monet, what's your advice?

[Monet X Change]

I think that if you feel like you are unapproachable, I think the only thing you can do to rectify that for yourself would be to approach people. Right. I think we're a long past of days of you. I mean, again, I don't know how you date or what the energy or the vibe you're looking for in a potential partner, but you may be looking for someone to come and court you and say hi to you or give you a pickup line, but if that's not happening, that's not working. You gotta change the plan up, girl. So if you're at a bar, go and hang out at a bar. Get your drink in your hand. You see a guy that may be sitting there, I think going up to more than one guy or a person that you're trying to hook. Because I don't think you said. I think she said men. Right?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She said, guys don't approach me yet.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, yeah. So going up to multiple guys may seem a lot. And guys are fucking gross and weird. So if you see a single guy at a bar or if you don't feel weird, you see like two or three friends together, go over and be like, hey, how you doing? My name is. Blah, blah, blah. Just find something to drum up a conversation. Maybe. I don't. I mean, I don't really go and approach people, but I would. If I. If I were to, I would find a good conversation starter and just approach them myself. If no one's watch me. Okay, sorry. I just had to come up and say this. My sister uses the same yeti cup and it is crazy. Cause it's a Limited edition? Yes. It's crazy because it's like a limited edition one. How did you get it?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm obsessed with Barbie.

[Monet X Change]

Oh. Oh, my God. Okay. What'd you think of the movie, though?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It was good. Good. Great. I literally thought it was fantastic. Now come on.

[Monet X Change]

Good. Fantastic is a lot of words for that movie.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm a big America fan. I'm a big fan of Margo. We are. We're on a first name basis, so. Yeah.

[Monet X Change]

And how you gonna leave Easter conversation? Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You suck dick.

[Monet X Change]

Depending on the. Depending on the guy.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

The guy that.

[Monet X Change]

I suck his dick for an hour and 20 minutes. That was at hour 10. I had lost. I lost all feeling in every part of my body.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I can't believe you don't want to suck dick for that long. That's crazy to me, Bob.

[Monet X Change]

An hour and 20 minutes was too long. Also, I was on my knees the whole time.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That's. That's where you. That's. First of all, baby, I'm telling right now, at a certain age, if I go to your house, if I'm sucking your dick, I'm not. I'm not gonna change myself. I'm grabbing a pillow.

[Monet X Change]

Taking my pillow, putting it on the floor is crazy.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm grabbing a pillow. It's a pillow from the couch.

[Monet X Change]

I guess that's fine. But then if we're on the bed.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, then I'm gonna be on the bed.

[Monet X Change]

But also. Okay. Do you put a towel down?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I mean, if I'm gonna get. I don't get that messy.

[Monet X Change]

Then you're not doing it right.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't get that. But, but, but, but whenever I, whenever. If someone does put down towel, I'm like this about to be. If they grab a towel, like, if they be like, you might want to grab a towel, be like this. I'm gonna go ahead and.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, no, I put a towel down.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm. Go ahead and put a star next to your name because I know this about to be lit.

[Monet X Change]

I put. I put a towel. I put a towel down for sure.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I hate when you do this because your finger is so deep in your ear, like you're down to the fucking nut. Like the second knuckle. How does your finger get that? Look at, look at Monet. Look at this. This is as far as my finger can get into my ear. You can't see this part of your hand. Your finger, put it back in there. Oh, you know what it is also, you got light skinned hands.

[Jacob]

For our, for our audio viewers, can you describe.

[Monet X Change]

I just Read the thing where they set your ass out this crappy shit.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Monet's hands are. The inside of Monet's hands are very light. I would say Monet has. Oh, my God. I will never get over how white the inside of your. Monet's inside. Monet's hands are literally the color of white people's skin. Like, that is so. Because you're not light skinned, the inside of your hands are the color of white people's skin. That's crazy.

[Monet X Change]

The inside of your hand is the color of a tan white person.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, this is the color of, like, a Puerto Rican girl.

[Monet X Change]

That is a tan white motherfucker.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

There are black people who are. Who are lighter than the inside of my hand.

[Monet X Change]

There are black people this color, too.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, with albinism.

[Monet X Change]

No, he's the color of black.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

There are no black people who don't have a skin condition who are lighter than the inside of your hand, Bob.

[Monet X Change]

That is crazy. That is.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Beauty is a skin condition.

[Monet X Change]

We need to walk that back because there are black people this color.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like. Like, mixed black people. But there are black people. Black people. Like. And so anyway, what I'm saying is. Okay, that was problematic. All right, you got me.

[Monet X Change]

Very problematic. I'm sitting there like, what the fuck is going on?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But the. The lines on my hand are. Are the color of the back of my hand.

[Monet X Change]

Me, too.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, Monet, you're. Is. Are you. Do you have makeup on your hands?

[Monet X Change]

No, it's not.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Do this. That is. Are the bottom of your feet this color, too?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, it looks like a white man.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Has his hand on camera. Has anyone else ever mentioned this to you?

[Monet X Change]

No.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I will say there are several people in my life who've been like, you're the first person to ever mention this specific thing about me.

[Monet X Change]

Cause, Bob. Cause you hyper fixate on things. You know, the.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You know, I'm the first person to ever tell Nick they had a strange voice. Can you even believe that?

[Monet X Change]

Like, you hyper fixated on Lana Jarret saying, this is the first time I've ever worn this, or whatever it was. No one else thought about it. So you were like, this is crazy.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But it was kind of crazy. What were we talking about?

[Monet X Change]

Oh, yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So many people have been like, first of all, I want to say I'm a big fan. And by the way, my body is tired. That's like, every advice we have today. They're like, oh. They're like, just so you know, my body's amazing. I just want to start by saying I got a big Fat ass. And everyone gags for it.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. So to this person, I want to say maybe, you know, the way you're describing yourself, maybe you are a little, A little intimidating to approach. So I think you got to switch it up and you need to approach dudes, you know, because we know we're not down with this fucking patriarchal shit where you feel like the guy has to come and take care of Sadie Hawkins. Sadie Hawkins.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

A Sadie Hawkins name dance. What the real ones know, they know in the comments.

[Monet X Change]

Is this from Stranger Things.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, Sadie Hawkins dances when the girls ask out the guys.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, yeah. So you, maybe you can approach them. You know what I mean? I. I think try that. Try you. You, you being the aggressor, the approacher.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So because I'm not very approachable, I. When I'm at parties, I approach people. When I go somewhere, I want to communicate. I. First of all, I do. I like to. Unless I'm wearing uncomfortable shoes, I like to just zoom through the party and just go to person to person to person to person to person. I invest little bits and I. I have little investments all over the party and at some point one of them's gonna pay off. You know what I mean?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So. But if I don't work, I'll park and hope people come to me. But that doesn't always happen because I don't look terribly approachable. But I'll park if I have Jacob with me because Jacob looks very approachable. Jacob has a very friendly looking face. And people want to talk to Jacob because he's white. He just has a friendly looking face.

[Monet X Change]

Do I have a friend looking face?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, you do actually. You have a very friendly looking face. Yeah, you look very approachable. You look very friendly. You look like some of the people want to walk up and say hi to. I walk up and say hi to you. Wait, did you not say hi to you?

[Monet X Change]

I don't remember how we first started talking. I just remember that night of the wrist. I don't remember who said, I probably came up to you after the number. Like, bitch, dude, that was so good. That was everything.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I mean, again, we were start hanging out. When I made you that dress, I think you asked me to help you with the dress or you asked me to make you a dress because you asked me about an outfit I wear. I said I made it. You're like, can you help me make a dress or something?

[Monet X Change]

And I think you volunteered your services. I don't think I asked you.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, that's not true, but we'll continue, but that will discuss another day. But because I'm not a pro, I have to go up to people and approach them, or else I will not talk to anyone at a party. So I think that's very good advice. Monet, you ate with that one.

[Monet X Change]

Thank you, Bully. Thank you. I think we have time for one more.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Do you like that? When Brittany could say that?

[Monet X Change]

Bully.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Bully.

[Monet X Change]

Marv, I'll hang out with Marvin. Marvin is so funny. Marvin is so. Now do I say this? Marvin is so quirky but hilarious but deadass at the same time. Like, Marvin came as Alexander McQueen's two last night. He's like. He's like, you know, I should have came in drag. You know? And I was like. I was like. I was like, you.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

He's been thinking he's a drag queen.

[Monet X Change]

You gonna come in drag? He's like, yeah. Like, no, you're not.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I've never done drag.

[Monet X Change]

I know. Oh, they're gonna choose not to cut to come to drag. It's very funny. Marvin's very cute.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Put it in your pants. Let's hear all our pants.

[Listener]

Hi, Bob and Monet. My name is evelina, and I'm 30 years old, and I use they, she pronouns. And I would love Yalls input on my current situation. So I'm dating this guy who's really great, and we have a very loving and caring relationship. However, I spend way more time thinking about, learning about talking about social justice and dismantling white supremacy in all its forms than he does. And it's getting to the point where he, I think, is becoming agitated at the ways that he perceives me to be, constantly challenging his thinking around certain topics related to social justice. And certainly, I know plenty of people have relationships where they have different political views than their partner, which I don't think we do. I think we are aligned values wise. But I'm wondering, do y'all have any feedback on. Are there ways I can be approaching conversations differently or more effectively to sort of bridge the gap when he's kind of new to learning about social justice? Or is it something maybe, especially in this day and age, that is just too big of a barrier and we should just cut it off? Would love Yalls thoughts. And I'm so grateful for everything that y'all do. You always lift me up, and I really appreciate that. Thank you so much.

[Monet X Change]

All right, you go first. I have so much to say about this.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I gotta say, it sounds like he has some political leanings that he doesn't want you to know about. Like it sounds like he's leaning right when you're, you know, running left. That's what it kind of sounds like to me. And I have a lot of friends who are, like, not political, but I don't have any friends who are irritated that I am often political. Like, I think that would be a hard line for me if I. If I had a friend who was like, can we not talk about politics? Or can we not talk about this? That would be a hard line for me personally. I don't think I could associate with someone like that, because I am. I like, talking about, like, the way I talk on this podcast is not just for this. This is how I talk about life. I will call him on a. And be like, he believe this shit this administration's doing. He believe this shit that this person, this problematic person did. I do a lot of this stuff. You know, black. You know, town hall of Black Queer Podcast. Me and Peppermints podcast was born out of conversations that we just had on the phone. And then we were like, let's turn it into something. Monet and I. This podcast was born out of conversations we just had on the phone. And it became something. So I. I personally don't think that I could have someone like that in my life, especially not dating. I mean, at that point, you have to be. I have to be, like, related to you for you to be in my life personally.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, I would find it pretty tough to date or talk to or court whatever someone who had. Who seems to have different political leanings as me. This situation happened twice on the most recent season of Love Is Blind. It was fucking crazy. Sarah and Ben and then Virginia and Devin. Virginia and Devin were both two black people. Devin. Virginia was very liberal, blah, blah, blah. And Devin was, like, skewed left a little bit. I mean, skewed right a little bit, not a little bit. I think he was a Trumper. And she was like, I just can't fathom, like, dating someone who is that. And then Sarah, who's a white woman, and Ben is a white man. You know, Sarah's family. You know, she has LGBTQIA plus family. And literally on one of the dates, she was like, what do you think about Black Lives Matter? And he goes, I never really thought about it. So her thing is, like, it's not something you cannot think about, bitch. We're also from Minneapolis. Everything that went down in Minneapolis, she was like, so just the fact that it's something that you don't think about and you're not conscious of that means that we cannot be a thing. Because the fact that you think that that's. That you don't have to give it thought is a problem. And I agree with that. Like, if this person is like, can I please not? Or seems agitated or irritated about it and it's something that you're passionate about, then that's not gonna work. I feel like. I hate to use this term. It's very biblical. But y'all don't seem equally yoked. It seems like y'all are not in. Yeah, y'all are not aligned. And eventually that will probably lead to problems. Right? Like, I cannot imagine dating someone who, even though I love them, whatever, and we voted differently. I could even do that. Like, I cannot vote. I cannot live with someone who voted conservatively or who supported. Because that means that you support conservative values. And therefore we cannot be a thing because I don't agree with a lot of their values. So. But you have to see what works for you. But it worked for some people. Some people are in two completely different households. The wives are Republican, the husband's a Democrat, or vice versa. And they make it work. They live. They're happy, they have kids, whatever. For me, I could never do that situation.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I can't even not mention to my friends who still have Teslas, that Tesla's annoyed me.

[Monet X Change]

Right?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm like, you driving a Tesla? Yeah, you really drive. Now, granted, I know y'all bought it before all the shit went down. We didn't know. We didn't know then what we know now, but it's time to tell.

[Monet X Change]

And also, we're just in a different time. I keep on saying this. Like, we. This is not like the Democrats and Republicans of like. Of like. Of like our. Our. Our grandparents or our parents. We're in a. We are. The Republican Party is someone who is literally seeking to dismantle equality.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Kelly Mantle.

[Monet X Change]

Mantle. Equality. Just good ethics and moral. Like, they are. They're operating in a very deleterious and disgusting way. It is not like the Condoleezza. And again, not saying that. Condoleezza Rice and all those. Whatever. Like, I know.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

They a great name, though. Condoleezza is such a Conti name.

[Monet X Change]

It is.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It is Condoleezza.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, it's not Condoleezza Rice. It's not fucking. What was Colin Powell. Colin Powell. These are fucking JD Vance. This is fucking Donald Trump, and these are evil people. So it's just different.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Colin Powell building in Harlem. What's that building on 125 near the. Near the Apollo. It's like the Colin Powell.

[Monet X Change]

No, it's Adam Clayton Powell. Adam Clayton Powell. Not Colin Powell.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Where's Adam Clayton Powell?

[Monet X Change]

I don't know. Now some y'all remember being like Powell.

[Jacob]

Anyway, yeah, anyway, sorry, a former United States representative from.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

He black.

[Monet X Change]

Of course he's black.

[Jacob]

He represented Harlem.

[Monet X Change]

He black, Definitely.

[Jacob]

And yeah, he was. He represented Harlem. New York City. Yes.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Jacob.

[Monet X Change]

Don't say. Yeah, Jacob. What was he?

[Jacob]

He was a person of, actually. Was he. Sorry, this.

[Monet X Change]

[Bob the Drag Queen]

All right, y'all, thank you so much. Goodbye.

[Jacob]

Oh, well, actually, this is interesting. So he was. He was part of his success, I think, is because he was so white. Passing that like in the early, like 60s.

[Monet X Change]

That makes sense. Oh, yeah. Oh, wow. Yeah. If I saw this person, I would think it was a white purse man. I would not think this was a black man.
