Trixie Mattel
Huge if true. Huge applause. That is huge. Congratulations.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Thank you. And I go to there and I go to the bar and I'm looking at their menu and high tops. All of their locations have this huge almost like scoreboard of all the drinks and food. So I'm like, what do I want? What I want? And I always get the hot rod, which I talked about on the pod and the bar. You know, I'm friends with every bartender, bar manager. We're all friends. And, you know, the girls and the bar people, we can. We can talk about the bars. Working in bars, girl. It's a slog, you know, and. But I love the hot rod, which is this spicy tequila drink. And I go, I think I might want. And they go, the hot rod? And I said, what do you mean? They said, well, you talked about it on the pod, and now everyone's requesting it. It's not. They said, next time, could you just say you love vodka soda?
Trixie Mattel
Yeah, yeah, yeah, totally. It's like mint juleps.
Katya Zamolodchikova
And so we laughed, and the bar manager's like, no, we're just kidding. We'll make anything, of course. But they said, the next time we been joking. Maybe you tell people your favorite drink is vodka soda or something, or just Sprite. Yeah. So my favorite drink now is vodka soda. If you go to High tops. Okay. And you order a double and you tip three times the price of the drink.
Trixie Mattel
Is there like, a whole, like, Shoots and Ladders type of setup in this. In this hot rod or. No. Like, garnish. No, like, you know, like. Like a Bloody Mary has, like, a whole, like, chicken.

Trixie Mattel
It's okay. This is pooping pee.
Katya Zamolodchikova

We're also used to the tv, the phone, multiple sources of info, telling you so this eye is crying for you. This eye is like, looking for the hot rod is roller coaster of love. Looking around, and I see this Leslie walking down the street and I see a green jacket. I go, I think I know who that is. And my friend is, like, telling the story. He's, like, kind of sad and talking about it, and then he's like, anyway. And it's just like, who are you looking at? I was like, oh, I know her. Go on.

Katya Zamolodchikova
That's the closest thing to a tea girl you're ever going to be. Pack it up, honey. Today's episode of Bald and the Beautiful is brought to you by Thrive Market. So I have to tell you guys, if you watch the pod, you know that I came in here the other day with this roll of fruit leathers that changed my life. Because let me tell you guys, I'm a snacker. I'm a huge snacker. I'm a person who snacks. I'm always hungry. If it was up to me, I'd have five meals a day. And I've learned as I get older, the quality of the snack really affects how much the feeling to snack can be dealt with. So what I love about Thrive Market is it's this membership based grocery store where you can shop from wherever you are. Simply just get on the app and then membership breaks down to just $5 a month. You get personalized shopping with filters. Like for me, I'm vegetarian obviously, but I also love sweets. I got these double chocolate cookies that were soft that came in these mini packages. And some days I have to take a bunch of medication in the morning and some days just having something in my stomach, even though it's like six in the morning, makes it so I can take all my medicine. And I have to start that with something somewhat healthy. And being able to have like a fruit bar or a fruit leather or a healthier cookie at the top of the day really makes it possible to start the whole day. Instead of paying fees on every grocery delivery order, you just pay once a year and you benefit from it every time you shop. There's no trade offs for good food. You guys. These snacks blew my mind. These Mexican wedding cookies turned me out. They were salty, they were kind of crumbly, but kind of soft. I mean, like, I am obsessed now. I swear I will stay with Thrive because I need to know how to replace these snacks. This membership gives you access to these brands that you love. Delicious flavors that I don't even see in my store. And you guys, I came home from a long day of two days working on set and I had a bunch of groceries sitting in my kitchen ready to be refrigerated and be eaten. Some of it pushes me out of my comfort zone a little bit too, which is actually really good because I'm so not adventurous. I need to be more adventurous. And there's no hidden fees. You just pay Once a year. There's no service charges, there's no delivery fees, there's no tips on the orders. It's just a membership and it bundles everything into one little cost. You could spend a lot on delivery or just pay $5 a month for Thrive Market membership. Ready to make some healthy swaps and become a member? Join Thrive Market with my link thrive market.com bald for 30% off your first order plus a free $60 gift. Okay, try the fruit leather.

Katya Zamolodchikova
What?
Trixie Mattel
What?
Katya Zamolodchikova
Okay. Oh, so you remember when Charlie Kirk died? Yeah, everything.
Trixie Mattel
Think about it every day.
Katya Zamolodchikova
So do you remember how people who loved Charlie Kirk were going to Starbucks and ordering this type of tea he got? And they asked for them to yell Charlie Kirk.
Trixie Mattel
I did not know that. Okay, so that's crazy.
Katya Zamolodchikova
This was a point of activism where Charlie passed and passed the bar. The bar, yeah. Passed. And people who liked the things he said wanted to honor him by going to Starbucks. I think it was the mint Majesty tea is what he gets. They would order his exact drink and then say the name was Charlie Kirk. And then they would sit there. Oh, so they actually sit there with their phone and wait for like the blue haired envy barista to have to say drink for. And sometimes they would say like, drink for Charlie. And they'd be like, oh, why? When you say the last name, it was like so crazy. This went on for like two and a half weeks, but it felt like four years.
Trixie Mattel
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Katya Zamolodchikova
When this is going on. But now Leland and I were. Of course, when someone dies, you're like, you're joking because you have to joke a little.
Trixie Mattel
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Katya Zamolodchikova
We were like talking about getting Starbucks. We're like, is it okay to show up to the. We were a little early for the funeral. It's okay if we show up with Starbucks. And I said, I think we have to order something for Gabe. And then we have to order his order. Cuz they were like, Gabe loved two giant Trent to copy. They said, well, we're going to go order them. We're going to say these are for Gabe and we're going to film it.
Trixie Mattel
That is really weird with the Charlie Kirk thing. I hate that so much. I hate it. It's crazy.
Katya Zamolodchikova
The next. Oh my God, Charlie's driving that wayo. Like I made that up. They're not doing that.
Trixie Mattel
But I mean, it's the same flavor. Oh, I hate it.
Katya Zamolodchikova
I hate it. And what you do is. I have no issue with ordering coffees and teas for yourself. But this isn't about that.
Trixie Mattel
No, no, no.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Let's say your mom loved coffee. And that day you said, you know what? I miss my mom. I'm going to get the coffee the way she used to drink it for myself to drink.
Trixie Mattel
Sure.
Katya Zamolodchikova
But that's not what's going on.
Trixie Mattel
No, no, no.
Katya Zamolodchikova

Katya Zamolodchikova
You're going to go to the most vulnerable LGBT people. Baristas.
Trixie Mattel
Thank you.
Katya Zamolodchikova
You know, as if these people who are highly skilled aren't busy making real drinks.
Trixie Mattel
Yeah. Do you realize at that airport. Oh my God, when we're at the airport, sometimes at those Starbucks, they're so deep and vicious because you can order ahead.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Oh, yeah.
Trixie Mattel
I don't believe you should be able to do that. I'm sorry, why? I don't believe you should be able to do that at those airport ones. I think you just go in there and get your coffee. I think it's crazy. Yeah, it's crazy.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Well, like the LAX International Terminal, there's always a huge. There's a line of people waiting for coffee and there's a second line of people waiting for their pre order. So it does beg the question, what is the point of the pre order? Because we're all still waiting.
Trixie Mattel
No, I know, it just mucks up the whole thing. It's crazy.
Katya Zamolodchikova
I really wish we had Dunkin Donuts over here.
Trixie Mattel
You do you actually like that?
Katya Zamolodchikova
Mary? I've been vegetarian my whole life, but if you catch me with a wake up wrap, which I think is $0.89, it's a half folded like tortilla with an egg, cheese and a strip of bacon in it.
Trixie Mattel
Okay. You love it.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Nirvana.
Trixie Mattel
Dying for it.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Nirvana.
Trixie Mattel
What about Krispy Kreme? They don't do breakfast. Do they do savory breakfast? No, they don't.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Krispy Kreme I think just does donuts. But they do it good the way
Trixie Mattel
I want to shove all those donuts up my ass.
Katya Zamolodchikova
There's a Dunkin Donuts in Burbank.
Trixie Mattel
Is there a Krispy Kreme?
Katya Zamolodchikova
Yeah, there's a Krispy Kreme, like around the corner. There's a Dunkin Donuts over here.
Trixie Mattel
Oh, yes there is.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Wow. Wow. Everybody pretends to be on a zoom until they start talking about donuts. I'm the dream person to order coffee because I don't drink coffee. So no, no. What order is a plain iced tea, Nothing in it.
Trixie Mattel
Oh, it's so easy.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Or a plain black tea. Nothing in it. I'm the dream.
Trixie Mattel
That is the dream.
Katya Zamolodchikova
I'm the star. Fierce. And even though I love a lot of different drinks, when I go to gay bars, I always get the vodka soda. Cause the fags are hurting.
Trixie Mattel
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Katya Zamolodchikova
The girls are tired.
Trixie Mattel
You're not ordering a mint julep. You're not having people muddle mint.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Now I love tequila and we live in California and so if I go somewhere where you have a promoted menu with a tequila drink, I'm gonna take advantage of that.
Trixie Mattel
You like tequila?
Katya Zamolodchikova
Love it. Really love it. Tequila makes her clothes fall Off. You know what I mean?
Trixie Mattel
It's the Belvedere playing tricks on you.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Rattata.
Trixie Mattel
Take my thong off.
Katya Zamolodchikova
I'm a ass. Go. Boo. Have you ever heard the song Tequila?
Trixie Mattel
Tequila? Yeah, of course. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's a. It's a barn burner. If you're ordering shots for the table, we're all going out for girls. Girls night. Getting crunk. What are we drinking for?
Katya Zamolodchikova
Shots. Well, the people I run with, they don't need a shot, but they want the.
Trixie Mattel
Nobody wants shots.
Katya Zamolodchikova
So recently, I was in Jackson Hole, okay. And I ordered 13 shots for the table. There was only two of them. No, I ordered 13 shots of the table and the bartender was gay, and I didn't know it was a straight bar.
Trixie Mattel
Oh.
Katya Zamolodchikova
And he comes and he sees me and he goes. Like, He goes, girl, what are you doing here with these straight people? And I said, I don't know, girl. I said. I said, oh, my God. And I knew I was with straight people who. I'm just going to say it. Can't drink.
Trixie Mattel
Oh.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Can't hold their liquor.
Trixie Mattel
Oh, gotcha, Gotcha.
Katya Zamolodchikova
The men start. The men start swinging and the women cry. Straight people are. They're jammed up emotionally.
Trixie Mattel
Oh, that's true. That's. You know, Prince William just talked about it online. Yeah.
Katya Zamolodchikova
The. The people have anger, people have hurt.
Trixie Mattel
They don't understand their emotions.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Right. And they don't. You know, they could follow. Follow RFK's. Yeah. You know, they could do something healthier. You know what I mean?
Trixie Mattel
I just have a lunchable.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Like they could do anything. Whole milk.
Trixie Mattel
Glass of whole milk. I just have a sip of warm milk. And then sometimes I put a hot dog in my throat as I pull it out.
Katya Zamolodchikova
You know what I mean?
Trixie Mattel
It's just like I eat up some Gatorade.
Katya Zamolodchikova
It's just. It's all crazy. It's all crazy. But straight people, when they. They feel a lot, they don't. But they don't talk about it. This is all people. This is all people. So then sometimes alcohol unlocks the pressure.
Trixie Mattel
Yes, yes, yes.
Katya Zamolodchikova
So you find your. And I do this.
Trixie Mattel
It's the classic thing in the lad room.
Katya Zamolodchikova
You always do that. That's why on a plane, one sip of wine and a remotely sad movie.
Trixie Mattel
Oh, yeah.
Katya Zamolodchikova
I'm like, I got to call my mom. We got to land this plane. You know, I had to turn off
Trixie Mattel
Ghost halfway through, cuz I. The woman next to me was getting concerned. Seriously.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Did I tell you about the. Did I tell you about the notebook?
Trixie Mattel
Oh, yeah.
Katya Zamolodchikova
The person next to me on the flight was watching it.
Trixie Mattel
Yeah.
Katya Zamolodchikova
And I had no sound. And I was watching it, like, just crying. And she was, I'm sure, like, ew. Like, she put up like. It's the act. She put up like a blinder.
Trixie Mattel
I cannot watch other people's movies.
Katya Zamolodchikova
I can't help him. What was my. What was that?
Trixie Mattel
So the street people, they gotta get.
Katya Zamolodchikova
So I'm with all my lovely straight friends and they go, what kind of shot do you want? Because you asked what kind of shots and I said, do you guys have X rated.
Trixie Mattel
Was that.
Katya Zamolodchikova
It's like a very light liquor. Because I want the camaraderie of the shot.
Trixie Mattel
You don't want all the drama.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Push the limit.
Trixie Mattel
Yeah.
Katya Zamolodchikova
I don't want to be sick tomorrow either. I love drinking, but I will not. I will. But I don't want to be that girl hungover.
Trixie Mattel
So how do you avoid a hangover?
Katya Zamolodchikova
You have to. There's a lot of strategies.
Trixie Mattel
So you do Scotch, whiskey, red wine.
Katya Zamolodchikova
My old strategy used to be you skip the first drink and then I end the last drink. So if everyone's having. I think a gay guy out of native drinking could reasonably have four or five cocktails. Right, Nick?
Trixie Mattel
See, yeah, that's. I think it's the team sport. I feel like it's the team sport element that it goes south because everybody's not created equal on this team.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Right. And I want to wake up tomorrow and have us be like half alive.
Trixie Mattel
Yeah.
Katya Zamolodchikova
So let's have a shot for the vibe. But we don't need the high alcohol content.
Trixie Mattel
No.
Katya Zamolodchikova
So usually for me, although in Wisconsin, the culture's very different. You start the night with a shot. Wisconsin, you go to the bar, people get a beer and a shot to start, and then they start like, that's like Boston shot. Culture is big.
Trixie Mattel
That's disgusting.
Katya Zamolodchikova
I think it's regional.
Trixie Mattel
Big beer is very large. Very huge. Huge.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Yeah. From like usually like a 6 to 9% ABV. Do you like beer? No. I know that's sacrilege. What? Cuz in Wisconsin is so big.
Trixie Mattel
Yeah.
Katya Zamolodchikova
But I just have never got into it.
Trixie Mattel
I. I just tastes like. To me. And wine tastes like booty too.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Do you like cigars?
Trixie Mattel
Yeah, I mean, I don't like. I like the way they smell. I don't.
Background or Secondary Contributor
I don't.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Would you ever smoke a cigar? I mean, I have.
Trixie Mattel
I don't. It's not for me. Because it's like you don't inhale it if you die.
Katya Zamolodchikova
And they're at the funeral. Open casket. I'm gonna put the cigar in your mouth.
Trixie Mattel
Absolutely. But you gotta keep. It's gotta be one of those ones that keep.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Incense burner. Knock champa. Yeah, Knock Champa up the nose.
Trixie Mattel
No, I. You have to rig my open casket to like, fall on somebody and vomit into their mouth. Like, drag me to hell. Like everybody. Everybody who comes up.
Katya Zamolodchikova
That also happens in Bad Grandpa. Did you see that?
Trixie Mattel
No.
Katya Zamolodchikova
You need to watch Bad Grandpa. Wait, is.
Trixie Mattel
Do they. Is there male nudity in that one?
Katya Zamolodchikova
It's fake male nudity. I believe it's like the old man. Fake old man body.
Trixie Mattel
Oh, okay. Well, speaking of that, a Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, Mary Jorkin, the Dong of Death.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Jorkin, your Paninus the dong.
Trixie Mattel
I was like, this. This is really, really, like, where is something. Do you see that?
Katya Zamolodchikova
Do I see it? How could I miss it? It's fake, right?
Trixie Mattel
No, that's real. Of course it's fake. Isn't that crazy?
Katya Zamolodchikova
To the knee is crazy.
Trixie Mattel
Yeah. And then he pees out of it. Oh, yeah, he pees out of it. I was like, the movies are back, man. It's so fierce. I love Game of Thrones so much in this new. This new. I wasn't feeling it, but now I'm feeling it. It's so fierce. A Night of the Seven Kingdoms. The last episode was so bloody, I could not believe it.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Really.
Trixie Mattel
A. It was a tournament with a jousting. Just absolutely. Just relentless violence. Relentless. Just like. Oh, my God. It was like crazy.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Like it love. It's beers.

This episode is sponsored by Olipop. Bonjour. My name is Etienne Claude Bagettier Dupont, and I come to you from a very small French village where the bread is sacred, the pigeons read Jean Paul Sartre, and Shirley Temple is considered a cinematic deity. Every morning I watch one of her films bow slightly, entering a Shirley Temple while whispering mercy for her curls, her optimism, and her ability to tap dance away despair as we all march slowly to our eventual demise. But mon dieu, the sugar in a regular Shelley temple. My digestion was staging a protest in the streets and my pancreas was screaming sacre bleu. Then, like a miracle performed by angels bearing berets or Olipop, released their new limited edition Shirley Tempe flavor. It is the original mocktail, but reborn brighter, bolder, and made with real ingredients that I can feel good about, especially my poor digestive tract. Olipop is a new kind of soda that combines classic soda taste with a functional ingredient blend to support digestive health. It has high fiber, low sugar and none of the shame that once haunted my silent prayers after consuming as much sugar as a tartar Sucre. Now in my modest village, Nephoece of the Alps, Olipop's neutrally tempo flavor is recognized as the true nectar of the gods. We drink it for joy, for surely and for a healthy dose of joie de vivre. Vive la Olipop. Get a free can of Olipop.
Trixie Mattel
Buy any two cans of Olipop in store and we'll pay you back for one. Works on any flavor. Any retailer head to drinkolipop.com bald olipop is sold online, drinkolipop.com and Amazon and available in the soda aisle and with the chilled beverages at thousands of retailers nationwide, including Walmart and Target.

Today's episode of Bald and the Beautiful is brought to you by no CD. There you are just living your life when a horrible unwanted thought crashes the party. Is that tiny sensation in my body actually a serious illness? Why doesn't my partner look as happy as I do? Why don't my partner and I look as happy as that other couple? Do I even love them? What if I'm a secretly violent, dangerous person, even though I don't want to be? And then, to make matters worse, your brain grabs onto that unwanted thought and will not let it go. And now you're spiraling, replaying every interaction you've ever had, seeking reassurance from everyone around you. And it never really helps for long. What's going on? Unwanted thoughts that feel sticky, repetitive and impossible to shake like that might be signs of ocd, a condition that is way too misunderstood. OCD involves unwanted, intrusive thoughts that cause intense anxiety and behaviors you feel driven to do to get relief, even though that relief is only short lived. It can latch onto literally anything. Your health, your morals, your relationships. And it can be completely debilitating. But it doesn't have to be that way because OCD is highly treatable with the right kind of specialized therapy. OCD needs erp, or Exposure and Response Prevention, which is proven to be the most effective treatment. And that's where NOCD comes in. NOCD is the leading provider of OCD treatment and all of their licensed therapists specialize in treating OCD with ERP therapy in live, face to face virtual sessions. Your NOCD therapist will teach you how to take the power away from intrusive thoughts so you can spend your time and energy on things that will actually matter to you. Therapy with NOCD is covered by insurance for over 138 million Americans. They also provide support between sessions so you're never facing OCD on your own. If your unwanted thoughts are doing the most and you're tired, don't wait to get help. Visit nocd.com to book a free call with their team. That's nocd.com I just got back from

a trip to New Orleans, where I fully surrendered myself to Mardi Gras like a glitter covered moth to a very loud, very humid flame. While much of the country was preparing for a blizzard, I was out there in the streets draped in beads, sequins and questionable decisions, letting brass bands guide me like a spiritual compass. The best part of the trip was the home I booked on Airbnb. It was a beautiful house just far enough from the madness that I could reassemble myself like a haunted voodoo doll between outings. I could take morning slow with a pot of coffee and freshly made beignets and then boom, back out into the French Quarter for continued cheerful chaos. Booking through Airbnb made the whole thing feel less like a chore and more like I was impersonating an eccentric logo. With excellent taste. The house itself was absolutely fantastic. My guests and I had room to sprawl a real couch to dramatically collapse onto after a long night out in a kitchen that witnessed some deeply unholy late night snack behavior. But more than anything, it was perfectly serene. I could close the front door and have a moment of peace, then open it and immediately re enter the tornado of fun. Traveling with friends was also legitimately great because we were all together in one house, not scattered across the hotel like lost luggage. Now that I'm back and ever so slightly recovered, I'm already plotting my next summer escape. Somewhere sunny, somewhere fun, and definitely somewhere with a view. Trips just hit different with Airbnb. It's like you're actually living somewhere, even if it's just for a few days. With Airbnb, every journey feels like it was made just for you.
Katya Zamolodchikova
I went for Valentine's Day. I went to my boyfriend. I feel like in LA I keep getting TikTok saying LA is so back and the food is better than ever.
Trixie Mattel
Back from what?
Katya Zamolodchikova
I don't know. But the people making These TikToks are 233 and they're like LA is so back And I'm like, back from what? Middle school? Like girl, what are you talking about? But of course I believe it and I hate watch the whole thing. So now tik tok is like the here's what the 20 year olds say are the best food. And I go, great. I'm young. So my partner takes me for Valentine's Day to a restaurant we'd never been to, which in Hollywood is such a gamble.
Trixie Mattel
Oh, yeah, baby.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Some of these. Some of these. Some of these restaurants that are good are trucks.
Trixie Mattel
Yes.
Katya Zamolodchikova
The best food in Hollywood.
Trixie Mattel
Yeah.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Sometimes is on a truck.
Trixie Mattel
Yes. Also.
Katya Zamolodchikova
But. But. And that's the restaurant that's good. Aren't good. Well.
Trixie Mattel
Or the fancy restaurant with the way you gotta check out this place. The brunch is amazing. You go and you're like, hey, how long is the wait?
Katya Zamolodchikova
It's about 14 days, literally.
Trixie Mattel
Okay, we'll line up.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Now, I think in Hollywood, sometimes the cheap places are the best food. Well. And then the places that are trying to be something, you're like, this is.
Background or Secondary Contributor
This is just.
Katya Zamolodchikova
This is just normal, Mama.
Trixie Mattel
Tell me about it. So wait, you. Where did you go for Valentine's Day? Because now I just remember what I
Katya Zamolodchikova
did on Valentine's Day. I forget what it's called, but this place. And we go to the. The. The host was so nice. She was so pretty. And she was like, let's just go this way. And I swear to God, maybe I imagined or maybe I read the mind. She was like, let's put him in the overflow room because it's Valentine's Day. So it was like. There was this extra dining room they set up for overflow.
Trixie Mattel
Damn.
Katya Zamolodchikova
So it's like this big, bustling Hollywood restaurant. And then they take me down a hallway past the bathrooms, and it's another room with just another couple in it and us. And it's like, no.
Trixie Mattel
Double day.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Double day.
Trixie Mattel
Are you serious?
Katya Zamolodchikova
The songs they're playing are all about love. So it's like, love me, love me. It's like all love songs on Spotify.
Trixie Mattel
Damn.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Are you enjoying Pandora radio? It's like, no. Like, it's like. Then behind the bar, they've projected a video with a projector on the white wall. And the projected video is a loop of Paris with the Eiffel Tower.
Trixie Mattel
Now, that's classic. That's classic.
Katya Zamolodchikova
I got a picture next to it.
Trixie Mattel
That's classy.
Katya Zamolodchikova
You're going to die. I look kind of potted out in it. But the.
Trixie Mattel
Oh, my God, that's so elegant. That's crazy. The overflow room.
Katya Zamolodchikova
But you know what, though? The food is really good. And this is where it turned around. I was like, okay, whatever.
Trixie Mattel
Where is.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Was in Hollywood? I got drinks and I was like, yeah, I'll have The watermelon martini. That sounds kind of fancy. Okay. I don't want to feel like a huge alky. Yeah, but when you. When you drink at gay bars, these straight people drinks this Capri sun that was stored with hand sanitizer like it ain't nothing. There's no booze in here.
Trixie Mattel
Oh, right, right, right.
Katya Zamolodchikova
So for the second round, he comes back and he goes, do you want to get another was? I said, do you have anything with more alcohol? And the server was like, it's a martini. I was like, not where I'm from, bitch.
Trixie Mattel
Yeah.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Hello. It's. You don't taste that. This is 100% watermelon. Zero percent martini, baby.
Trixie Mattel
That's crazy.
Katya Zamolodchikova
But than truffle fries. That blew my tits off.
Trixie Mattel
No. Okay. What are truffles?
Katya Zamolodchikova
I don't know what a truffle is. I don't either. It's not important.
Trixie Mattel
Okay.
Katya Zamolodchikova
I think it's chocolate.
Trixie Mattel
No, it's not. It's like a mushroom or something.
Katya Zamolodchikova
It's a mushroom?
Trixie Mattel
Yeah. Fungi.
Katya Zamolodchikova
But I think that it gets turned into a spice.
Trixie Mattel
Okay.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Like, I don't think they're throwing mushrooms on your fries.
Trixie Mattel
No, I don't think so either.
Katya Zamolodchikova
I think they season it with truffle. Truffle oil. Yeah. Maybe that Truffle oil.
Trixie Mattel
Underground fungus.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Underground fungus.
Trixie Mattel
Underground fungus.
Katya Zamolodchikova
So that's what the proctologist just scraped off. Underground fungus. So then they bring out. I go, well, we kind of ate a late lunch, but we're going to see a play. I didn't know I was going to a play. It was a surprise.
Trixie Mattel
Okay.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Three vegan sliders. Horny.
Trixie Mattel
What were they?
Katya Zamolodchikova
Tiny vegan sliders, Vegan cheese. Vegan little mini cheeseburgers. Are all vegan. Delicious. The buttery, stunning, warm, hot. The. The little. The little fake meat was, like, crispy. The bun was, like, warm and toasted, and the cheese was melty. Girl fierce. Amazing. So then I went to see the Book of Mormon at the Pantages Theater.
Trixie Mattel
Have you not seen it before?
Katya Zamolodchikova
I've never seen it.
Trixie Mattel
Oh, my God. It's so good.
Katya Zamolodchikova
It was great.
Trixie Mattel
It's so good.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Beautiful music, laughing. I love the message. Yeah, very much. Makes fun of Mormonism, but really all religion.
Trixie Mattel
I don't think it does. I think it was very reverent, in fact.
Katya Zamolodchikova
But it also kind of shows, weirdly, the good that religion can bring. When the guy starts just making up stories, and then the people become very positive. I'm like, okay, sure. Yeah, I loved it. It was great. Love the singing. But Something happened the Pantages that I'm not sure if I can bring up, because I don't want to be banned from the Pantages because I'm trying to see Phantom of the Opera in October.
Trixie Mattel
Were you vaping?
Katya Zamolodchikova
No, not Bobert. I was bo. Burted. Fully bobirded. Yeah. It was me and Pam Bondi, and we had a bong. We were taking rips off a bong. By the way, that last episode, I said, let's put the pipe up to my. And queef out a crack cloud. I couldn't believe that that was in the episode.
Trixie Mattel
That's why I got age restricted.
Katya Zamolodchikova
The top comment was like, queef out a crack cloud. I said, who said that? Great refrigerators. I was like, who said that? I was like, oh, me creep out a crack cloud. Good. So we. We get there, and luckily, I have time to pee. My boyfriend gets in line for snacks because I said, you know, I can't see anything without a snack and a drink. So we're gonna get. I took. Took a half an edible. So I was like, I don't need marijuana. I don't. I don't need a drink. I'm just gonna have one little glass. I don't need alcohol. Just gonna have a glass of wine, whatever that is, Right?
Trixie Mattel
Yeah.
Katya Zamolodchikova
I'm not.
Trixie Mattel
I don't need alcohol. Just have a glass of wine.
Katya Zamolodchikova
You know, Reminds me of my big fat Greek Wedding, which. He's like, you're vegetarian. I'll make you lamb. Like, is that. So we get up there and we get. Oh, my God. Oh, they have Red Vines. I love Red Vines. And my. My work. I don't like chocolate, so I was like, I would get Raisinets. Love Raisinets, but I'm gonna get Red Vines. Okay. For the team. Go to go in the theater that. There are no food and snacks in the theater. So you. What they. Wait, wait, wait. They sell what? They sell snacks. Popcorn, candy.
Trixie Mattel
Can eat it.
Katya Zamolodchikova
There's. You can't eat it there.
Trixie Mattel
It's to take home.
Katya Zamolodchikova
So I go into the theater, and I just sit holding my. Holding my Red vines like this. Like an NPC in a video game the whole play. And then during. During intermission, I went outside the theater to eat some licorice.
Trixie Mattel
That is.
Katya Zamolodchikova
I just think it's crazy to salad. And then you can't eat it. And I was like, maybe I'm just white trash. I don't know how things work.
Trixie Mattel
No, no, that's. That is extremely bizarre.
Katya Zamolodchikova
And maybe it's for crinkling. Because of acting.
Trixie Mattel
They don't sell it. Then don't sell it.
Katya Zamolodchikova
They should make movie theater snacks in quiet packaging.
Trixie Mattel
They should just fall from the ceiling.
Katya Zamolodchikova
A beer helmet.
Background or Secondary Contributor
Yeah.
Katya Zamolodchikova
With like M M's in it.
Trixie Mattel
Yeah.
Katya Zamolodchikova
I just was kind of in shock.
Trixie Mattel
That's crazy. That's insane.
Katya Zamolodchikova
What would you do?
Trixie Mattel
I would not purchase it. I would have to. I would have to eat it though.
Katya Zamolodchikova
But then I thought maybe it was like a semantics thing of like, what they're saying is eat extremely quietly and discreetly. Maybe that's what this is.
Trixie Mattel
I think maybe that's what it is.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Are they gonna throw you out?
Trixie Mattel
I would do that by. I would, I would. For once in my lifetime, I would close my mouth when I chew.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Yeah.
Trixie Mattel
Yeah. But I, I drove. I remember what I did on Valentine's Day. I drove to the studio, the new studio that me and Andrew have. And I was mad as hell and because I couldn't find parking and I, I like drove past this long ass line. I was like, Janet Jackson must be doing a record signing or something like that. It was like five blocks. I swear to God. It was bagels. People were on an interminable lineup outside for bagels.
Katya Zamolodchikova
I mean, I love bagels.
Trixie Mattel
I love bagels. I want one right now. I'm not really willing to like wait an hour and 15 minutes outside for one.
Katya Zamolodchikova
What do you get on the bagel?
Trixie Mattel
I mean, it's very ho hum. It's just butter everything bagel toasted with butter. That's it. I can't eat cream cheese. I think it's disgusting.
Katya Zamolodchikova
I like, I get the vegan cream cheese and that's less weird for me.
Trixie Mattel
I like butter, but nobody ever like.
Katya Zamolodchikova
I do love like a raisin bagel with butter.
Trixie Mattel
Yeah, I love it.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Or I like strawberry cream cheese sometimes. Yeah.
Trixie Mattel
I wish I liked cream cheese. I was lamenting the fact that I am such a picky eater. And I wish it wasn't that way.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Cream cheese makes me think of like, maybe it's my age. It makes me think of like commercials about like women being like, I shouldn't have that. It's bad. Like that's. I'm so bad. I'm so bad because all the ads were about how it's like less fat. So I think cream cheese is probably pretty bad for you because the ads are about, this one's less bad.

Orlando, Orlando, Orlando. Do we have an Orlando here? He's here.
Katya Zamolodchikova
He's here.
Trixie Mattel
God damn.
Katya Zamolodchikova
It's Autumn Sunrise that. Well, you know what I watched the other day, too? What now? I had an MRI last year, and in the MRI, they let me watch a Netflix movie. So I said, why don't you turn on that Ashley Medicine documentary was good. Why don't you turn on Ashley Madison? So then a year ago, I watched part one. Last week, I watched part two. So you wait till the end. I needed time. Okay. So I watched part two and three, and they talked about this company that created this company. There's people that's created this company, Ashley Madison, where people don't know you sign up, and it's a website intended for you to be able to meet somebody to do adultery with.
Trixie Mattel
Yeah.
Katya Zamolodchikova
And so so many men signed up. Yeah, so many men signed up. They had a data breach where all of the names of people who've signed up got leaked. Do you know about this? I don't even remember this.
Trixie Mattel
Of course. It's like, how. Oh, God. So funny.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Like, one of the people they mainly interviewed was, like, this YouTuber who was like a daddy influencer with his Christian family. He got found on there, and first he made an apology for, I just made an account. I didn't do anything. And then later had to tell his wife, never mind. I've been at massage parlors for a year. Getting it jerked, Jed.
Trixie Mattel
They jerked my penis off.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Yeah. So then they talked about all the politicians and stuff were on. And then this one woman, she was like, I love my husband. I just like found. I. I found out about it because I didn't even know Ashley Madison was. I just like found out about it because came home and he was in the car in the garage and killed himself. Because at his work they found out he had an account and they made him retire. And then he knew he had to tell me and he just offed himself. So one of the things they talked about was like, with a data breach that big, Damn. The danger that some people put with their, you know, might not be in a mental state to deal with.
Trixie Mattel
Oh, my God.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Something like that. So it was like, obviously parts of it are salacious because it's about cheating.
Trixie Mattel
Yeah.
Katya Zamolodchikova
But parts of it were like, oh my God. And then they obviously allege that Ashley Madison didn't take the steps to make sure that their user's data was actually safe. The other thing they talked about was like the women they thought they were talking to. They made it sound like it was like a 60, 40 ratio, women to men on the website. You think 40% of women are looking for an affair?
Trixie Mattel
I don't believe that is true.
Katya Zamolodchikova
So that's something they talked about too is like former employees are like. I mean, there were bots.
Trixie Mattel
Yeah.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Or yeah. You know.
Trixie Mattel
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Do you remember when I told you about that documentary about the jerking off class where they had employees get up there and get fingered? You also got to watch that girl.
Trixie Mattel
What is that? Is that Nexium?
Katya Zamolodchikova
No, it was like. It was Orgasm Inc. Not Orgasm in Girl, Orgasmic. But the Ashley Madison doc was really interesting.
Trixie Mattel
Dark sided.
Katya Zamolodchikova
The fags are hurting.
Trixie Mattel

Trixie Mattel
Why?
Katya Zamolodchikova
There's another entertainer named Lexi Love who's suing her.
Trixie Mattel
Oh, that makes sense. But I mean, if you're like that, I could see that. Because you're like creeping under. You're creeping under. Search terms or whatever. I mean, I'm surprised that Yelena Zamilucho hasn't assassinated me.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Mattel.
Trixie Mattel
I know, I know, but there's like, I have that woman's last name, you know, and I'm creeping Juby.
Katya Zamolodchikova
Like that's a candy.
Trixie Mattel

Katya Zamolodchikova
Patagonia is suing Patagonia. That person who does activism for a living.
Trixie Mattel
Yeah, I could see that. But what is she acting against?
Katya Zamolodchikova
That's the thing. I don't even think she's a poor for profit artist. I think she's like flat out a philanthropist. What are you gonna do, sue the earth? The land, honey. The land. The land.
Trixie Mattel

Episode: A Motherforking Clusterfluff
Release Date: March 10, 2026
Hosts: Trixie Mattel & Katya Zamolodchikova
Podcast Producers: Studio71 & Confetti Cannon
This episode, “A Motherforking Clusterfluff,” lives up to its title as Trixie and Katya unleash their signature brand of chaotic comedy and candid storytelling. The queens reminisce about recent LA nightlife adventures, reflect on the absurdities of celebrity culture, and dig into everything from drag show hot takes to snack obsessions and encounters with Hollywood icons. Woven through are tangents on food, drinks, awkward public moments, and the intricacies of being both famous and very, very gay in a city obsessed with both. As always, their gossip, quips, and mutual heckling offer both humor and insight on queer life and showbiz.
This episode delivers a maximalist dose of Trixie and Katya’s comedic chemistry, careening through drag show nostalgia, awkward LA realities, and subversive hot takes on food, fame, and queer existence. Chock-full of quotable moments and community in-jokes, it’s both a hilarious window into their friendship and a riotous tribute to the power—and chaos—of living bald and beautiful.
Episode tip: To get the full effect, sample the sections on LA food culture, Ashley Madison, and the dragtacular brunch discussion. And remember, never recommend a complicated cocktail on a popular podcast unless you want your bartenders to revolt.
