The problem is I wanted to go bare legged, but.
[03:14]
Trixie Mattel
She looked over here.

Like I wanted to go bare legged, but I was cursed with knobby knees.
[03:21]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Mama, nobody goes bare legged.
[03:23]
Kelly Mantle
Yes, nobody does it. Not when you're sitting in chairs that are too low to the ground because your knobby knees are the only focal point.

Knobby knees.
[03:30]
Trixie Mattel
You two have rather, let's say kind of like long legs. Long. A slender leg. Slender, yes, slender.
[03:38]

Leggy.
[03:39]
Kelly Mantle
It has been too long since I have been bullied by these two.
[03:43]
Trixie Mattel
No, you want to talk about every.
[03:44]
Kelly Mantle
Day of my life for a year and a half.
[03:46]
Trixie Mattel
No, you want to talk about bullied. Have you on here together? I don't think so.
[03:49]
Kelly Mantle
No. We've never had a menage trois together. I love this.
[03:53]
Katya Zamolodchikova
I had you in my drag studio in West Hollywood.
[03:55]
Kelly Mantle
Yes.
[03:55]
Katya Zamolodchikova
That was way long ago.
[03:57]
Kelly Mantle
I did one with you. And I did one with you in the pink studio. Now we're blue.
[04:02]
Katya Zamolodchikova
What do you think about the blue?
[04:03]
Trixie Mattel
Kelly blue?
[04:08]
Kelly Mantle
If true, it reminds me of a place I used to stay at a mental hospital. When I first moved to la, I had like a mental breakdown for a minute and they threw me in the loony bin because words would not form out of my mouth. And the only way I was able to speak is if I was holding a guitar and strumming it. And so when my agent, like, called, I would have to pick up guitar and start strumming it in order to speak to him and be like, hello, how are you? I mean, it wasn't anything masterful. It was like A to C to D. But that's what the color of the walls was when they put me in there. It was only for like a week and a half.
[04:47]
Trixie Mattel
Wow.
[04:48]
Kelly Mantle
I know. But it's also like a Tiffany blue, right? Very Cartier.
[04:52]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Is it Tiffany or Robin's egg?
[04:55]
Kelly Mantle
Ooh, good question. A little bit of both.
[04:58]
Trixie Mattel
I don't. I mean, people have very strong feelings about it. Some of the comments are like, that.
[05:03]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Blue killed my family.
[05:04]
Trixie Mattel
Yeah, that blue killed my whole family.
[05:05]
Katya Zamolodchikova
That blue is nice.
[05:07]
Trixie Mattel
That blue is the reason the aliens won't talk to us like that. Kelly just want to talk about bullying. Kelly. I remember when we were on tour during Trixie and Katya Live. Some of you might have seen Kelly in it last year, two years ago.
[05:19]
Kelly Mantle
It was so much fun.
[05:21]
Trixie Mattel
And that was when I quit drinking. And Kelly goes. Oh God. Kelly goes. It's bad enough that one doesn't drink. Piss it.
[05:28]
Kelly Mantle
And I hear you're back on the bottle. Thank God. Honey, I have lost too many friends to sobriety. No offense. I want you to stay sober. I will still be your friend, but I've lost too many friends to sobriety. Thank goddess you're back on the bot.
[05:44]
Trixie Mattel
Well, you know, Kelly, you act like when I was drinking, you and I would just tear up the night. Kelly, Kelly. You would stay in that venue, drinking in your own. In your dressing room, eating. Eating ham and cheeses.
[05:55]
Kelly Mantle
We would have the only kiki in the dressing room with our little wine and our little crackers and cheez its and cheezes.
[06:01]
Trixie Mattel
Can I tell?
[06:02]
Kelly Mantle
Katya was already passed out or in her hotel rooms.
[06:05]
Trixie Mattel
She's in bed with a towel on the head at 8:30. Totally.
[06:08]
Kelly Mantle
The show's not even over.
[06:09]
Trixie Mattel
She's on the bus in bed.
[06:10]
Katya Zamolodchikova
I'm done.
[06:10]
Kelly Mantle
And Trixie and I would hang out in the dressing room until the the venue closed. I'd have to kick us out most night.
[06:16]
Katya Zamolodchikova
I love that idea. I love that.
[06:20]
Kelly Mantle
What do you.
[06:21]
Katya Zamolodchikova
I wish I loved the taste. Wine tastes like.
[06:23]
Kelly Mantle
Oh, honey, I don't love the taste of it. I only drink it to get drunk.
[06:26]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Oh, okay.
[06:27]
Kelly Mantle
And that's why I don't understand non alcohol. Do you drink non alcoholic beverages?
[06:30]
Katya Zamolodchikova
My brother does. And that is the weirdest thing. I can't think.
[06:33]
Kelly Mantle
I don't understand it because I'm like, if it doesn't get you drunk, what is it? You're doing it for the taste.
[06:37]
Katya Zamolodchikova
It's like smoking cat.
[06:40]
Kelly Mantle
That is weird.
[06:41]
Trixie Mattel
I've had some like sparkling canned roses that if you put them on ice, like you're not drinking. It's kind of nice.
[06:47]
Katya Zamolodchikova
It's not better than a Pellegrino.
[06:48]
Trixie Mattel
No, it's not better than a Pellegrino, but sometimes it's like something different, something.
[06:51]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Fun to do, and it gets you tipsy.
[06:53]
Trixie Mattel
It gets you out and about in the community.
[06:55]
Kelly Mantle
I've been drinking iced coffees lately.
[06:57]
Trixie Mattel
Are you cleaning out?
[07:00]
Kelly Mantle
It's time.
[07:01]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Colon broom.
[07:02]
Kelly Mantle
It's been years. 80.
[07:03]
Trixie Mattel
I heard. Overheard in the dressing room that your husband's picking you up today. Does that mean you've been drinking today already? You can't drive yourself.
[07:09]
Kelly Mantle
No, I don't drink.
[07:11]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Would you submit to a breathalyzer right now?
[07:15]
Kelly Mantle
No.
[07:17]
Katya Zamolodchikova
I ran into your husband.
[07:19]
Kelly Mantle
Oh, that's what he told me. What a.
[07:22]
Katya Zamolodchikova
What a mensch. What a guy.
[07:23]
Kelly Mantle
Oh, he's so hot. He is so hot, y'all. I mean, listen, I told him the other day, I said the biggest gift you could give me is to go blind, because then I wouldn't have to worry about what I look like all the time. My God. Oh, blind. I think you said blonde blind.
[07:38]
Trixie Mattel
Well, obviously. I mean, I don't want to put words in his mouth, but a beautiful woman like you, I'm assuming being able to behold you is part of the. Part of the fun of the blind.
[07:46]
Kelly Mantle
For now. But can you imagine in, like, 10, 15, 20 years? We need him to go blind. Love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful. Why don't you poke his eyes out?
[07:58]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Oops.
[07:59]
Trixie Mattel
Oops.
[07:59]
Katya Zamolodchikova
I did it again.
[08:00]
Kelly Mantle
That's a good idea.
[08:01]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Start with one eye, and then you do the other one.
[08:03]
Kelly Mantle
Oh, I like that. Maybe I will.
[08:06]
Trixie Mattel
Well, by then, perhaps, like, you'll be in economic ruin and you'll have no lights on in your house, so you just sit around and face tape. Or your new pod takes off so fiercely that you get all the surge.
[08:16]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Oh, and you poke his eyes out.
[08:19]
Kelly Mantle
And I poke his eyes out.
[08:20]
Trixie Mattel
We have Kelly here today because we are involved in her brand new podcast, Kelly. Tell us about the podcast.
[08:25]
Kelly Mantle
You all are executive producers. Did you know this before today?
[08:29]
Katya Zamolodchikova
I just saw the deduction from my checking account.
[08:32]
Trixie Mattel
Yep, Right.
[08:33]
Kelly Mantle
Exactly.
[08:34]
Trixie Mattel
To be honest, Kelly, you're one of the only people I would ever get involved. Involved with in that way, because I believe in everything you do.
[08:38]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Yes.
[08:39]
Kelly Mantle
You know, I don't even think I've ever gotten a chance to publicly thank you all face to face for all the opportunities that you have infiltrated onto my life. And I'm eventually going to have to take a break like a struggling drag queen like Trixie Mattel, because it is so much work. But, yes, I just want to hold hands right now and thank you all.
[08:59]
Katya Zamolodchikova
When you did that, what was the Line. What was the line? This is the you will get before you get totally assassinated. What was the line?
[09:07]
Kelly Mantle
Yeah, from Eagle Heart.
[09:09]
Katya Zamolodchikova
That was the best thing I've ever seen in my life. When you walk into the courtroom and you kill that judge.
[09:13]
Kelly Mantle
What is. What did I say?
[09:14]
Katya Zamolodchikova
You said, I want you to see.
[09:17]
Kelly Mantle
The judge is like, before you get completely assassinated.
[09:20]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Yeah, I love it. Completely assassinated.
[09:24]
Kelly Mantle
Completely. And I added the completely.
[09:26]
Katya Zamolodchikova
That is so funny.
[09:27]
Kelly Mantle
It needed to make. It needed, like, one extra light.
[09:30]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Not partially.
[09:31]
Kelly Mantle
No, not. Not partially assassinated.
[09:34]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Completely.
[09:35]
Kelly Mantle
Completely assassinated.
[09:37]
Trixie Mattel
Also. First, I must have been. I didn't see the whole episode, but obviously one of the plot points was gender, because you walk in and the judge goes, ma'am, sir, like, doesn't know who you are.
[09:47]
Kelly Mantle
That's what I love about that episode. And, you know, that was on Adult Swim, and I just love that network and everything that they produce. General Hospital and all those shows. And it was so ahead of its time because it was talking about a non binary character before they even. Not General Hospital, the seventh.
[10:06]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Children's Hospital.
[10:06]
Kelly Mantle
Oh, is it called Children's Hospital?
[10:08]
Trixie Mattel
I was like, what?
[10:09]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Children's Hospital.
[10:10]
Trixie Mattel
You know, Cartoon Network and General Hospital.
[10:13]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Adult Swim is the team.
[10:14]
Kelly Mantle
But it was so ahead of its time. And so I really loved that. It was so cool. And then I got blown up later, which was amazing. I did. Did you scream? Yes. They had to put all these contraptions right here on my body underneath my trench coat.
[10:30]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Oh.
[10:31]
Kelly Mantle
And, like, you feel it go off and it's like a shock to the heart.
[10:34]
Trixie Mattel
Oh, my God.
[10:35]
Kelly Mantle
Sag Aftra.
[10:36]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Sag Aftra.
[10:37]
Trixie Mattel
Sag Aftra. Honey, Jews are.
[10:39]
Katya Zamolodchikova

[10:41]
Kelly Mantle
Yeah, okay. I'm always up on my dues. I get those screeners. He get those screeners.
[10:46]
Trixie Mattel
I get the screeners, too. I never watch any of it, but they used to send DVDs, and now they just send.
[10:51]
Kelly Mantle
Yeah, they always send the bad.
[10:51]
Trixie Mattel
It feels less exciting.
[10:53]
Katya Zamolodchikova
I'm going to the premiere of Nosferatu tomorrow.
[10:55]
Kelly Mantle
Are you?
[10:56]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Yeah, yeah. Or on the 12th. Yeah, I am.
[10:58]
Trixie Mattel
So I wanted to go.
[10:59]
Katya Zamolodchikova
I think I. I think I might dress up as the vampire, which will take me about three minutes.
[11:03]
Trixie Mattel
I was also invited, and I thought maybe we're both invited. And if I was available, I was gonna say let's go as vampires.
[11:09]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Yeah, I think totally. You think so?
[11:11]
Kelly Mantle
Yeah.
[11:12]
Katya Zamolodchikova
It's not stupid.
[11:13]
Kelly Mantle
No, not at all.
[11:13]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Okay. It's perfect because I really do look like Nosferatu.
[11:17]
Kelly Mantle
I love that.
[11:17]
Trixie Mattel
Have you ever seen that clip of Selena Gomez and she has, like, blue in her hair, and she's like, yeah, I just wanted to put a little blue in the hair for the Teen Vogue party. That's gonna be you. It's like your shitty vampire. For the Teen Vogue. For the Nosferatu premiere.
[11:31]
Kelly Mantle
I love that. You know what? I love how, you know how you love to use prosthetics and stuff. If you did all of the facial prosthetics, you could pull off the guy from Poltergeist.
[11:43]
Trixie Mattel
Okay.
[11:44]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Yeah, I don't need the.
[11:45]
Kelly Mantle
I don't need the prosthetics. You do need the prosthetics. You're far too beautiful. But they're on the screen door. Oh, my God. That would be amazing.
[11:52]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Can I come inside?
[11:53]
Trixie Mattel
Huge.
[11:55]
Kelly Mantle
Yeah.
[11:57]
Katya Zamolodchikova
I don't need any prosthetics, unfortunately.
[11:59]
Kelly Mantle
Yes, you do.
[12:00]
Trixie Mattel
Kane Kelly, you're obviously the epitome of glamour. Do you like to. If you ever got opportunities, do you like to play, like, old nuggly, gross monster?
[12:07]
Kelly Mantle
Honey, I love to get my Meryl Streeps on. Yes.
[12:10]
Trixie Mattel
And you think that Meryl's old and ugly.
[12:12]
Kelly Mantle
No. What I mean by that is, like, in. In August of Osage county, you know, she has the cancers and everything. And, like, there's the. You know, the thing where she's like. You know, her little o. Stubbles of hair coming out.
[12:24]
Trixie Mattel
I can smell it. You want to do. You want to do Glenn Close? You want the Deliverance and the Deliverance?
[12:28]
Kelly Mantle
Yes, I do.
[12:29]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Those shot.
[12:31]
Kelly Mantle
I love that. Because when you're playing. When I'm playing a character, I don't feel so like you're the character.
[12:36]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Yeah.
[12:37]
Kelly Mantle
You know, I mean, look at Sandy. She was. She was horrible looking.
[12:41]
Trixie Mattel
Beautiful teeth. Kelly. Horrible looking.
[12:43]
Kelly Mantle
They're not real.
[12:44]
Trixie Mattel
They're really there.
[12:45]
Kelly Mantle
Well, they're.
[12:46]
Katya Zamolodchikova
They are present.
[12:47]
Kelly Mantle
They are here.
[12:49]
Trixie Mattel
They're with us.
[12:50]
Kelly Mantle
We're here.
[12:51]
Trixie Mattel
The spirit of the myth.
[12:52]
Kelly Mantle
We were here before we were here.

Trixie Mattel
Hi, it's Trixie, and this episode is sponsored by Airbnb. I am from Wasaukee, Wisconsin. I recently went up to Wasaukee, Wisconsin, and that area only has, like, two motels, really, in the area of where that is. And I went on the website. I wasn't really sure about it. I wasn't sure about the accommodations. I wasn't sure about the price based on, you know, what I was getting. And I didn't want to stay at a hotel that was, like, attached to a gas station. So, you know, I just. Airbnb for that area was the way to go. It was easy to use The WI fi, the laundry, I mean, and I just brought, like, things like eggs and toast. And because it was a real cabin, they had pots and pans and spatulas and, you know, instead of when you're staying somewhere remote where it's not like you can just like, get food delivered, it was really great to be able to, like, just cook for myself. I loved it. If you guys ever want to go to Wasaki, look for the cabin by Jody. It was so beautiful and Perfect. It was like 5be and it was so affordable, and I didn't even need all those bedrooms, but it was a really. It was like, why not? It was really affordable. And my favorite thing as well is that it's. It just felt. I don't know, am I really gonna go to, like, remote Wisconsin? You know, most of my family's. All my. All my family's moved to Milwaukee now, so I didn't have, like a home to stay in. So I really got that hometown feel. And I don't think I would have got that if I was staying in a hotel, honestly, you guys. I've even stayed in Airbnbs on the drag queen tours. There was one drag queen tour I was on where it was like me and two or three other big famous drag queens all staying in a house together. And like, the memories I have of us, like, playing board games or like, you know, hungover, making breakfast in the morning is like really core memories of what made those trips special. I can't remember a lot of the hotels I've stayed in, but I can remember every single Airbnb I've stayed in.

[17:46]
Kelly Mantle
7, 9, 6, 9. Do you know about this?
[17:48]
Trixie Mattel
No. Okay, tell her.
[17:49]
Kelly Mantle
Oh, my God. You would have left it, girl, because I know your stories. I know your story.
[17:54]
Trixie Mattel
She used to go to a dollhouse with the girls, with the boys would go meet the dolls called 7969 Peanuts. Not the kitten, not, not the, not the cat splat or whatever that.
[18:04]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Seven, six, nine Peanuts.
[18:06]
Kelly Mantle
Peanuts. On seven nine Santa Monica Boulevard.
[18:09]
Trixie Mattel
No, not E, N, I, S. Peanuts, dude. Peanuts.
[18:14]
Kelly Mantle
It was a bar. 7969 Santa Monica Boulevard. There it's something else now. Raja would perform there. Delta would perform there. RuPaul would go there and watch the shows. And it was a. It was a bar for the dolls.
[18:26]
Trixie Mattel
7969 Peanuts. I just feel like there's a branding issue. I just feel that doesn't. That to me sounds like you sell peanuts at the mall. It could have been like it's giving Wetzels pretzels. It could have been like the Lavender Room. It could have been the Ride the Kitty Cat Club.
[18:40]
Kelly Mantle
Yeah.
[18:40]
Trixie Mattel
Peanuts.
[18:41]
Katya Zamolodchikova
The Dollhouse.
[18:42]
Kelly Mantle
It's like, hey, I know.
[18:43]
Trixie Mattel
Do you want to meet me out for a drink? Yeah. Where should we go? How about the Peanuts? Like, I don't know about that.
[18:48]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Nine, six, nine Peanuts.
[18:49]
Kelly Mantle
Seven, nine, six, nine. And then the other one that I was telling Trixie they had was called the Lodge, but that was where all the cross dressers would go, like the traverse.
[18:58]
Katya Zamolodchikova
That's not giving crossy.
[18:59]
Kelly Mantle
No, the lodge is giving like DL and it looked like a lodge. It was very. Everything was brown.
[19:05]
Katya Zamolodchikova
No.
[19:06]
Kelly Mantle
And wooden.
[19:06]
Trixie Mattel
Katie and I always lament like the. When I first started doing drag, especially the presence of cross dressers in the clubs, I felt was more prevalent. It was the drag queens. And like, you know, I. I don't know how to describe it other than men who dress up for cross dressers. The public turn on of cross dressing.
[19:27]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Cross dressers. Yeah.
[19:28]
Trixie Mattel
Which is a different reason than drag queens or trans women. You know what I mean?
[19:33]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Well, for one, they don't like crowds. They don't like big crowds of girls that are not their target.
[19:38]
Kelly Mantle
Right.
[19:38]
Katya Zamolodchikova
You know what I mean? They're not going to meet blue hairs.
[19:41]
Kelly Mantle
Right. I mean, but they have a convention.
[19:43]
Katya Zamolodchikova
They sure.
[19:43]
Kelly Mantle
Tiffany Clinton is it in Boston?
[19:45]
Katya Zamolodchikova
They have it. There's one in Boston. But it's. The Tiffany Club is one of them. Yeah. It's like.
[19:50]
Kelly Mantle
And usually they show up with their wives because their wives are usually supportive of their cross dressing.
[19:55]
Trixie Mattel
Yeah. Oh, yeah, they're all usually. Yeah.
[19:57]
Kelly Mantle
And they love the dolls. They love.
[19:59]
Trixie Mattel
They love that.
[20:00]
Kelly Mantle
They love the dolls.
[20:00]
Katya Zamolodchikova
They love to put their little kitten heel on and wobble through the kitchen with the. With the selfie stick.
[20:04]
Trixie Mattel
Yes.
[20:05]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Yeah.
[20:05]
Kelly Mantle
Oh, really?
[20:06]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Oh, yeah, I do that Lauren. Desire.
[20:08]
Trixie Mattel
Yeah.
[20:09]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Yeah.
[20:09]
Trixie Mattel
And then sometimes I just remember being younger and like, sometimes it's like, you know what? You're all right, gal. And then they start hitting on you and you're like, you're not that old.
[20:16]
Kelly Mantle
I know. I'm like, girl, this ain't that kind of kiki into a Kai Kai.
[20:21]
Trixie Mattel
Yeah.
[20:21]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Have you done the Kai Kai?
[20:23]
Kelly Mantle
No.
[20:23]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Oh, Jesus.
[20:24]
Kelly Mantle
Absolutely not.
[20:25]
Trixie Mattel
That's the only thing she hasn't done.
[20:27]
Kelly Mantle
No, I have not done the Kai Kai.
[20:29]
Katya Zamolodchikova
You wouldn't.
[20:30]
Kelly Mantle
Huh?
[20:31]
Katya Zamolodchikova
You wouldn't have Kai Kai a three way with your husband?
[20:33]
Kelly Mantle
No.
[20:37]
Trixie Mattel
You ain't woman enough to take my man.
[20:38]
Kelly Mantle
I mean, listen. You ain't woman enough to take my man. I don't know. I mean, I have been in many lesbian relationships.
[20:45]
Trixie Mattel
What?
[20:46]
Kelly Mantle
Yes, I've been in many lesbian relationships. My very first girlfriend, like, real relationship, she was a Madonna lookalike. She, like. For the real. Yeah, for real.
[20:59]
Trixie Mattel
It was Venus Delight.
[21:04]
Kelly Mantle
Girl. That scene of her hitting the mirror in the dance room. And the thing in the.
[21:09]
Trixie Mattel
Have you ever seen this?
[21:09]
Katya Zamolodchikova
No.
[21:10]
Trixie Mattel
It's Kelly. Let it. Let her rip.
[21:12]
Katya Zamolodchikova
What is it?
[21:13]
Kelly Mantle
I am Madonna. And then she takes the wig off Venus. It's from which show?
[21:19]
Trixie Mattel
She was on a television program about, like, I'm obsessed. And she was.
[21:22]
Kelly Mantle
I'm obsessed with it.
[21:24]
Trixie Mattel
I'm obsessed. I'm obsessed with Venus.
[21:26]
Kelly Mantle
I'm obsessed with it.
[21:27]
Trixie Mattel
And her obsession was impersonating Madonna.
[21:29]
Kelly Mantle
Yes.
[21:30]
Trixie Mattel
And she struggled with the push and the pull of being this other person, but not being this other person. And her identity between the two, it's amazing.
[21:38]
Kelly Mantle
It is cinematic.
[21:39]
Katya Zamolodchikova
I'll have to watch it.
[21:40]
Trixie Mattel
If you were going to be a celebrity impersonator, do you get somebody a lot? Like, when you're up in the drags, do people are like, oh, you look like y'all.
[21:47]
Kelly Mantle
I get Taylor Swift all the time. I can see that. Yeah, all the time. I was in an Uber the other night in a little suv, and I was back there on my phone and I had the window rolled down and there were two gays at the bus stop and they were like, taylor and like, look over, Dane. And I know Tim the Sweet. And I roll up the window and it goes up and they're like, oh, my God, that was Taylor Swift. Like, I Heard them scream like that. Cause I had like bangs and like.
[22:16]
Katya Zamolodchikova
The thing and shitty blonde hair.
[22:18]
Kelly Mantle
Yeah.
[22:18]
Trixie Mattel
I think next time that happens, you should lean out the window and go, like I say I'm too late and just pull away. You had your guitar.
[22:24]
Kelly Mantle
It's either that. Exactly. Especially when I'm playing my guitar. But it's either that or Christine Baranski. So it's like a whole spectru.
[22:31]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Which is night. I mean, that's like mother daughter.
[22:33]
Kelly Mantle
Total. Yeah.
[22:34]
Katya Zamolodchikova
That's fierce.

Trixie Mattel
She's quite pretty. I'll take it.
[22:36]
Kelly Mantle
Absolutely love her.
[22:38]
Trixie Mattel
Yeah.
[22:38]
Katya Zamolodchikova
If you had to. If you worked at a club that demanded at least one celebrity impersonation, who would you do?
[22:43]
Kelly Mantle
See, I'm terrible.
[22:44]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Impersonation had to like, you know, like, somebody does share. Somebody does Madonna.
[22:49]
Trixie Mattel
Do you think you dressed out like a shitty dolly or something?
[22:51]
Kelly Mantle
I think. No, see, I can't do that. Who would I do? I would do share.
[22:56]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Yeah, share.

[23:26]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Bewitching.
[23:27]
Kelly Mantle
Thank you.
[23:28]
Trixie Mattel
Do you drive, Kelly Mantle?
[23:30]
Kelly Mantle
Do I drive? Yeah.
[23:31]
Katya Zamolodchikova
She drives like a sports honey.
[23:33]
Kelly Mantle
I love to drive. I love my muscle cars. I like to put the top down. 79 Camaro with T tops. We take those T tops off, honey.
[23:42]
Trixie Mattel
The T girls and the T tops girl. And are you safety. Are you kind of throwing people down?
[23:48]
Kelly Mantle
I'm a hellion.
[23:49]
Katya Zamolodchikova
No seatbelt in the car.
[23:52]
Kelly Mantle
Sometimes the car's not in the car.
[23:54]
Trixie Mattel
The car's blind on the road. She's in the back seat whipping her hair.
[23:58]
Kelly Mantle
If the seat belt doesn't match your outfit.
[24:02]
Trixie Mattel
That'S. That's huge. If true. Can I tell you I feel that way about purses? If it's a match, don't leave it at home.
[24:09]
Kelly Mantle
And. And I don't understand. A mismatched purse.
[24:11]
Trixie Mattel
And for DJing, headphones. Headphones have to, like, somewhat go with the outfit.
[24:15]
Kelly Mantle
Very. That. Because you have pink ones.
[24:17]
Trixie Mattel
Pink ones, black ones, rhinestone ones.
[24:19]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Oh, really?
[24:20]
Kelly Mantle
I love when you dj. Well, do you remember when we went to that club there in. I think it was Australia. Oh, that was. That was so.
[24:27]
Katya Zamolodchikova
That was actually really.

Kelly Mantle
So good.
[24:43]
Trixie Mattel
The other one I end with, when people are really drunk and I want them to really turn up, is the. I love it.
[24:47]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Oh, the icon of pop one.
[24:49]
Trixie Mattel
Yes.
[24:49]
Kelly Mantle
Have you ever meshed Give Me, Give Me, Give Me a Man After Midnight into Madonna's Hung Up?
[24:54]
Trixie Mattel
Well, they're so similar.
[24:54]
Kelly Mantle
I know. Well, it's. She actually samples it. Yeah.
[24:57]
Trixie Mattel
Yeah. It's like a sample, and it's like a. She kind of misplaces it, reverses it. And she didn't sing it when I saw her, which really. I love that song. And she didn't sing it.
[25:04]
Katya Zamolodchikova
That's why it's my absolute favorite.
[25:06]
Kelly Mantle
Madonna.
[25:09]
Trixie Mattel
L U V Madonna, which I love. And she didn't sing Beautiful Stranger. Those are like my three faves.
[25:13]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Well, those aren't gonna. Those aren't concert songs. I know, but Hung up is her. I feel like her best.
[25:18]
Kelly Mantle
I know. I was really surprised it wasn't part of it. I was hoping she was gonna add Rescue Me too. Rescue Me.
[25:25]
Katya Zamolodchikova
That's like a deep cut, though.
[25:26]
Kelly Mantle
I know. But she said in an interview that she would add it.
[25:29]
Katya Zamolodchikova
What's your. What's your.
[25:30]
Kelly Mantle
I think Bob helped her with the set list. It's all y'all's fault.
[25:32]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Bob, what would your set list be? Madonna's like, hi, you're my set list manager.
[25:36]
Kelly Mantle
Shut up.

Katya Zamolodchikova
Do it right now.

Kelly Mantle
Get here if you can. On. It's on Confessions. Oh, it's song number two. Okay. I didn't. Get here. I've hung up. Anything from Confessions. Anything from Lack of Prayer, she'd have to throw in Burning Up.
[25:57]
Trixie Mattel
She did burn it up.
[25:59]
Kelly Mantle
She did. Burning Up. I think she opened with it, didn't she? Or.
[26:01]
Trixie Mattel
No. She played her guitar. She talked about her days at cdc.
[26:03]
Kelly Mantle
Yes, exactly. I mean, there's so many Frozen. I mean, my gosh.
[26:10]
Katya Zamolodchikova
I wanted to do Bedtime Story or, like, Human Nature Secret.
[26:16]
Kelly Mantle
Yeah. My Baby's Got a Secret.
[26:20]
Trixie Mattel
Some of them I wouldn't have asked to see, like, in my dream list. But then, like, when she did Ray of Light, I loved it. But I wouldn't have really thought of, like, can't wait to hear Way of Light. But then Live. I loved it.
[26:28]
Kelly Mantle
And I love Borderline.
[26:30]
Trixie Mattel
Borderline was. And Burning up was awesome when she did it.
[26:33]
Kelly Mantle
Hey, Mr. DJ, put a record on. I want to Dance with My Baby.

Trixie Mattel
For The girls who have all those hits, though, I mean, how many can you fit in one? You got to kill your babies a little bit.

Kelly Mantle
I know. That's wild.
[26:44]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Gotta kill your baby.
[26:45]
Kelly Mantle
I mean, that woman, my gosh, I am just.
[26:48]
Trixie Mattel
I just saw Cindy when I did her thing.
[26:50]
Kelly Mantle
Oh, you did Cindy? She did basically everything I hope she.
[26:54]
Trixie Mattel
Would do, including when you were mine with that Prince.
[26:57]
Kelly Mantle
Yes. I love the COVID of the Prince song.
[27:00]
Trixie Mattel
I was like, it's not you. It's a Prince song. Maybe she won't do it. And she. It was amazing.
[27:03]
Kelly Mantle
I was like, did she do. And I'm heading with. No, heading west.
[27:09]
Trixie Mattel
Sorry, girl. True colors was horny. She had this long rainbow scarf with this fan that blew the scarf straight up in the air. And she was holding it, singing True Colors, and it was all super gay. And at the end, she let it go and it flew away.
[27:23]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Wow.
[27:23]
Trixie Mattel
Okay.
[27:24]
Kelly Mantle
What was it like being on stage singing with her?
[27:26]
Trixie Mattel
Were you just terrifying? Terrifying. Terrifying.
[27:28]
Kelly Mantle
And girls just want to have fun is a hard key.
[27:31]
Trixie Mattel
Oh, I just sang in an octave blower. No, she's like, all right, girl. I messed up one of the words. And she stopped the whole rehearsal in a nice way. She was like.
[27:39]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Kicked her in the cunt.
[27:39]
Trixie Mattel
No. She was like, trixie, this is a song of protest. You said. And daddy. She's like, no, it's. It's. But you're. You're not agreeing with your father. You're a woman. She was like, you're a woman and this is what you want. Don't try to. Don't meet your dad halfway. Tell that man what you want. And I was like, damn.
[27:54]
Kelly Mantle
Girls just want fundamental rights.
[27:56]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Hello.
[27:56]
Trixie Mattel
She says, it's a song of protest. It has to have integrity. And I was like, listen, girls, I'm with you.
[28:00]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Equal pay.
[28:01]
Kelly Mantle
Yep. Damn. And it's not even hers, right?
[28:06]
Trixie Mattel
She told me that. She told me she changed.
[28:08]
Kelly Mantle
She changed a couple, changed some of the lyrics, the words, boys want to have fun.
[28:12]
Trixie Mattel
It was girls don't want to have.
[28:13]
Kelly Mantle
Fun, though, wasn't it? It's wild.
[28:17]
Trixie Mattel
Perhaps.

This episode is brought to you by ritual. Everywhere I go, it's the same thing, whether I'm at the opening of my friend's artisan Mashed potato pop up or walking my neighbor's pet goat, Wilhelm Ramstein. It seems like everyone is talking about the gut microbiome these days. When I visited my friend Hercules Starburst to try on the new dress he was making for this year's Live Bald and beautiful tour, he couldn't stop talking about his gut microbiome. He told me all about his flora and fauna and how the microbiome is key to our mental health, immunity, and of course, digestion. He even sang me a song called if your tummy is bloated and you're stuck at home, ritual has got your back, your belly, and even your biome. It was horrible, but take it from both me and Hercules. With synbiotic plus a 3 in 1 supplement of clinically studied pre, pro and postbiotics, you can help support a balanced gut microbiome with daily use. For instance, do you know the difference between prebiotics, probiotics and postbiotics? They sound super similar, but it's actually fascinating how they work together. Probiotics contain the live microorganisms themselves, the kind that make up a flourishing microbiome. Prebiotics contain the nutrients that microorganisms need, and postbiotics are natural byproducts that support the gut barrier. And while both Hercules and I have both raved about how ritual Symbiotic plus help transform us from gassy monsters to cool, calm and regular pooping members of society, scientists are also praising ritual. In a study that modeled the human colon, Synbiotic plus increased the growth of beneficial bacteria and microbial diversity. It's designed with a delayed release capsule to help reach the colon, not the stomach, an ideal place for probiotics to survive and grow. All it takes is one daily mint scented capsule for simple, streamlined gut support. Plus, it's vegan friendly and formulated without GMOs, major allergens, animal products, shady fillers or artificial colors. So get your gut going. Support a balanced gut microbiome with ritual symbiotic plus get 25% off your first month at ritual.com bald that's ritual.com bald for 25% off your first month.

In crowded waiting rooms, standing in line at the pharmacy. That's painful.

[31:42]
Trixie Mattel
Well, I read your mind because she had a psychic recently.
[31:45]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Oh, that's.
[31:46]
Trixie Mattel
Are we allowed to give away what's happening on the pod?
[31:47]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Okay, you gotta give us the. So the kernel.
[31:49]
Kelly Mantle
I have no idea what I'm doing. Y'all great. I mean, I'm not much of a talker.
[31:54]
Trixie Mattel
Okay. Kelly, we're trying to promote the pond.
[31:55]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Oh, we want.
[31:57]
Kelly Mantle
So my new podcast. I love talking. I. I love what I'm doing. I love touring. I love touring. I don't know. I love to tour. I love to tour.
[32:06]
Katya Zamolodchikova
I go through hell talking on the microphone.
[32:08]
Kelly Mantle
I love podcasting. No, it's a lot of fun. I mean, it's basically just me with good friends or new friends. And we. Kiki and I had a. I had a. Tammy. Tammy's on it. Angeria is on it. Coco had Coco Peru. And then we had a psychic medium. And should I tell it?
[32:32]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Yes.
[32:33]
Kelly Mantle
Y'all are my executive producers. You let me know.
[32:35]
Trixie Mattel
Hold on, Let me ask.
[32:37]
Katya Zamolodchikova
We cut the check.
[32:38]
Trixie Mattel
Yep. They said it's okay.
[32:38]
Kelly Mantle
Okay.
[32:41]
Katya Zamolodchikova
I can't believe they don't hear that.
[32:43]
Kelly Mantle
Was the airplane?
[32:44]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Yeah.
[32:45]
Kelly Mantle
I love the airplane sounds because it also means a transition in life. And we just brought up the psychic medium. I proved to you last time I was psychic.
[32:56]
Trixie Mattel
Mary, we're next to an airport. Like, there's bound to be flight sounds. Every time a plane goes by, she's like, can you believe it?
[33:02]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Transitions. People going from.
[33:04]
Trixie Mattel
Every time a plane goes over, someone transitions? Yes. Someone in this room has to transition now.
[33:08]
Kelly Mantle
Someone. It's Kerry Colby Airlines.
[33:11]
Trixie Mattel
Who is the psychic?
[33:14]
Kelly Mantle
Mancuso. Sherry Mancuso. Thank you. Sherry Mancuso. She was very popular. She's still very popular, but she was big on the talk show circuit in the 80s and the 90s.
[33:25]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Like Phil Donahue.
[33:26]
Kelly Mantle
Exactly. Giselle, Jesse Raphael. All those. And she gave me a reading. She had her eyes shut, and she told me my grandmother was coming through. And I said, now I'm not going to believe this. I said this to myself as I was sitting there. I was like, I won't believe this unless she brings up the horse. The whores or the horse?
[33:50]
Katya Zamolodchikova
The horse.
[33:50]
Kelly Mantle
The horse. They might have been whores, but they were horses. Because my grandma, right before she died, said, kelly, did you see the white horse at the top of the street? And I said, now call. There aren't no horses because we're in Oklahoma City.
[34:03]
Trixie Mattel
She was asking for cocaine. Do you want to ride the white horse?
[34:06]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Heroin.
[34:07]
Kelly Mantle
That might have been what she was asking for, which I could have provided, and it might have kept her alive.
[34:14]
Katya Zamolodchikova
So you killed your grandmother?
[34:15]
Kelly Mantle
I killed my grandmother because I didn't supply her with coke.
[34:18]
Trixie Mattel
Right.
[34:20]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Wait, so how do you think she knew about this horse? Let's be very, very.
[34:23]
Kelly Mantle
So. I don't. Because I've never told the story about the horse other than to, like, you know, close friends and family at, like, you know, whatever. Never live on a thing. And I'm sitting there, and she has her eyes shut, and she opens her eyes and looks at me and says, what's the story about the horse?
[34:38]
Katya Zamolodchikova
That's very creepy.
[34:40]
Trixie Mattel
Damn.
[34:40]
Kelly Mantle
I was like, what?
[34:42]
Trixie Mattel
You said I have a long face. Okay, so what, did you gag?
[34:47]
Kelly Mantle
Did I gag? Like, did you.
[34:49]
Trixie Mattel
I would have flipped out. Like, gotten the chills and everything.
[34:51]
Kelly Mantle
Oh, my God. I freaked out because I literally said it to myself right before she said it. I told myself, I don't believe this woman's real. She's giving very general things. And I said to my. She shut her eyes. And I said to myself in my head, if she doesn't bring up the horse, I'm not gonna believe this woman. And she literally opened her eyes and said, what's the story about the horse?
[35:12]
Katya Zamolodchikova
I would have punched her. Yeah.
[35:14]
Trixie Mattel
Didn't you say she had some kind of, like, she was famous for, like, solving some cases or something, right?
[35:19]
Kelly Mantle
Well, yeah, she. She worked with, like, FBI and detectives and police departments to help locate, like, dead bodies.
[35:28]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Missing babies.
[35:29]
Kelly Mantle
Exactly. I wanted to find the one that Tammy Brown was talking about.
[35:32]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Jessica.
[35:33]
Trixie Mattel
The dead body. Oh, I just watched that this morning.
[35:36]
Kelly Mantle
I know.
[35:37]
Trixie Mattel
I found it on this morning. Dead bodies.
[35:40]
Kelly Mantle
Your interview with Bruce Blanche this morning. It was so good.
[35:43]
Trixie Mattel
Girl, that was so crazy. Because the more I tried to learn about him, the more I realized I could never learn everything about him because his career was so.
[35:50]
Kelly Mantle
He's done everything.
[35:51]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Isn't it crazy Hollywood Squares, right?
[35:53]
Trixie Mattel

Kelly's husband said that if she doesn't start majorly bringing in the bacon, she's going to get a difference.
[37:12]
Kelly Mantle
Honey. She wore the breakin to bring home the breakin.

[37:38]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Which distinguishes the singularity of the mental brand for average podcaster.
[37:44]
Kelly Mantle
Messy, messy, chaotic. Lots of long pauses. Can I say unpredictable subtextual conversations going on inside my head that never come out on the microphone.
[37:58]
Trixie Mattel
And everything turns lesbian. Lesbian.
[38:00]
Kelly Mantle
Okay. And everything turns lesbian.
[38:02]
Trixie Mattel
I.
[38:03]
Kelly Mantle

[38:33]
Kelly Mantle
Now, am I doing this right? Is this the way?
[38:36]
Katya Zamolodchikova
No, you're doing it terribly.
[38:37]
Trixie Mattel
What's it called now? Kelly Mantle's podcast, the Kelly Mantle Show.
[38:41]
Kelly Mantle
The Kelly Mantle Show.
[38:42]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Now, the Kelly Mantle show is bound to be something unique, riveting, and unexpected. Wouldn't you agree?
[38:50]
Kelly Mantle
Absolutely. It really is. I mean, I think what happens is things come to my mind in the middle of conversations, and so it can go from a To Z very quickly, without much transition going on.
[39:06]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Unpredictable.
[39:06]
Kelly Mantle
Kind of like my gender identity. It just goes from A to Z very abruptly.
[39:13]
Trixie Mattel
What age did you lose your virginity?
[39:16]
Kelly Mantle
I lost my virginity to the Madonna lookalike. And so I was a freshman in college.
[39:22]
Trixie Mattel
Oh, wow.
[39:24]
Kelly Mantle
Yeah.
[39:25]
Trixie Mattel
Damn.
[39:25]
Kelly Mantle
In that wild. I lost my virginity to a woman who looked like Madonna.
[39:30]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Damn.
[39:31]
Kelly Mantle
It is the most amazing, immaculate.
[39:34]
Trixie Mattel
That's the most LGBT thing I've ever heard.
[39:37]
Katya Zamolodchikova
That's. That is pretty lgbt.
[39:39]
Kelly Mantle
It was there.
[39:39]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Music playing.
[39:40]
Kelly Mantle
Madonna.
[39:41]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Yeah.

[40:04]
Trixie Mattel
Do you like Christmas? Kelly Mantle.
[40:06]
Kelly Mantle
I fucking hate Kelly. Christmas. I'm sorry.
[40:10]
Trixie Mattel
I only think she gets opinionated on.
[40:11]
Kelly Mantle
Honey, listen, if I had children, then I would decorate and do the whole thing because, you know, it's for the children. But we are adults. We are celebrating a day for a man who was born to a virgin. To all you virgin mothers out there. I see you, Mary. I mean, there's only one, but, I.
[40:31]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Mean, you know, Jesus. Besides Jesus. You don't like the snow and the.
[40:35]
Kelly Mantle
Lights and the presents, the churches.
[40:37]
Trixie Mattel
This is the thing.
[40:38]
Kelly Mantle
Merry Christmas.
[40:39]
Trixie Mattel
This is the issue. It's one of two things. Mary got pregnant by a man without consent.
[40:45]
Kelly Mantle
Huh.
[40:46]
Trixie Mattel
Or Mary took hot loads on the side and then pretended to be a virgin.
[40:49]
Kelly Mantle
Exactly.
[40:50]
Trixie Mattel
You know what I mean?
[40:51]
Kelly Mantle
I'm gonna go with the latter.

Yeah, I got gonorrhea touched by an angle.
[41:01]
Trixie Mattel

Katya Zamolodchikova
Sexually transmitted infection?
[41:07]
Kelly Mantle
No, I hope not.
[41:08]
Katya Zamolodchikova
You've never had an sti?
[41:09]
Kelly Mantle
No.
[41:10]
Katya Zamolodchikova
For real? No gonorrhea, no syphilis, no herpes, no shingles?
[41:17]
Trixie Mattel
Rubella.
[41:18]
Kelly Mantle
Shingles is an SS Sexually Transmitted Everything.
[41:22]
Trixie Mattel
If it's transmitted during sex. If you get a paper cut during sex, it's an sti.
[41:25]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Measles, mumps, rubella.
[41:27]
Kelly Mantle
Well, now, I did get a paper cut on one of my floating tubes one time. I, I, they were trying to put a post there to remind them.
[41:40]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Post it Notes up the pussy.
[41:41]
Trixie Mattel
So you have this strapping military husband who's gorgeous and handsome. James. Shout out to James.
[41:46]
Kelly Mantle
Hi, James.
[41:47]
Trixie Mattel
And did he know when you got, when you all got together?
[41:50]
Kelly Mantle
Did he know that I wasn't born a female?
[41:52]
Trixie Mattel
No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I don't know what you're talking about. Did he know that maybe perhaps you weren't exactly a virgin and white up to that moment? Did he know that you'd perhaps made the rounds?
[42:04]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Did you know that your flower bed had been trampled?
[42:07]
Trixie Mattel
Did he know that, you know, you had kind of a.
[42:09]
Katya Zamolodchikova
That you were a loose woman?
[42:11]
Trixie Mattel
Time Central Station. Yeah.
[42:13]
Katya Zamolodchikova
An old boot.
[42:15]
Kelly Mantle
No, he did not know that, but he's gonna know now. Thank you so much. You're welcome. That here on the podcast Rusty Wheel, he thinks she escaped a combat. I mean, I don't think we talk about it because it's kind of one of those things that's off limits, but I think he knows.
[42:33]
Trixie Mattel
I think relationships are built on secrets and lies.
[42:35]
Katya Zamolodchikova
There you go. Relationships are made in the dark.
[42:37]
Trixie Mattel
Absolutely.
[42:38]
Kelly Mantle
I mean, bonds are you cut in with actors and athletes and rock stars and I think step stars and.
[42:46]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Who's the most rude celebrity you've met?
[42:49]
Trixie Mattel
Is it us?
[42:50]
Katya Zamolodchikova
No, it's not us.
[42:51]
Trixie Mattel
She's afraid to say.
[42:52]
Katya Zamolodchikova
We're not celebrity.
[42:53]
Trixie Mattel
Judge Judy Shanklin.
[42:55]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Shanklin?
[42:55]
Trixie Mattel
Is that her name?
[42:59]
Kelly Mantle
Now you know the answer to that. Modern Family.
[43:02]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Oh, who?
[43:03]
Kelly Mantle
Remember? I, I don't remember our pod that we did together.
[43:06]
Katya Zamolodchikova
That was so long ago.
[43:07]
Kelly Mantle
Sophia. Vogue, where we are. No way.
[43:11]
Trixie Mattel
That's.
[43:11]
Katya Zamolodchikova
I mean, someone's so hot, they're liable.
[43:13]
Kelly Mantle
To be a. I know which. She lets you look in the bad day. I'm just gonna say it was a bad day, of course, because she's hilarious and beautiful and talented and gorgeous and wonderful. She's just so sure it was just a bad day.
[43:24]
Trixie Mattel
She's allowed to have a bad day.
[43:25]
Kelly Mantle
We worked together on the set, and it was not the most pleasant experience I've ever experienced.
[43:30]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Now, why? Was it unprofessional behavior or just cunty behavior?
[43:35]
Kelly Mantle
It wasn't toward me. It was the way that some of her staff was being treated by her. And one of the big things was that in the episode, she's wearing a wig, and so they kept wanting to put bobby pins in the wig, and she kept telling them, no bobby pins. So in the shot, they yell, action. And I'm supposed to put the Crown on her. So I put the crown on, and then they say cut. And she's like, watch out for the wig. You're putting the crown on my head. And I said, well, girl, you should have put those bobby pins in.
[44:12]
Trixie Mattel
What the heck, Kelly?
[44:14]
Kelly Mantle
I know. It just came flying out of my mouth, so. But, you know, it was more than that. But that was one of the little things that happened that day. That was a fun day.
[44:24]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Did she beat the shit out of you?
[44:25]
Kelly Mantle
She did. Did she?
[44:27]
Katya Zamolodchikova
She beat the out of you, didn't she?
[44:29]
Kelly Mantle
Well, she ruptured my funny bone.
[44:31]
Trixie Mattel
Did you have any clothes on?
[44:32]
Kelly Mantle
No.
[44:33]
Katya Zamolodchikova
She snapped.
[44:34]
Kelly Mantle
We did the whole thing new.
[44:35]
Trixie Mattel
It was a very modern family.
[44:36]
Kelly Mantle
It was Halloween.
[44:38]
Trixie Mattel
Halloween episode. Oh, wow.
[44:40]
Kelly Mantle
I know.
[44:41]
Trixie Mattel
Do you like Halloween?
[44:42]
Kelly Mantle
I love Halloween. Every day is Halloween.
[44:44]
Trixie Mattel
We dress for it.
[44:45]
Kelly Mantle
Yeah, every day is Halloween.
[44:47]
Katya Zamolodchikova
What's your favorite Halloween costume that you've done?
[44:50]
Kelly Mantle
My favorite Halloween costume I've ever done. Wonder Woman. I did Wonder Woman. It was hot. It was a sexy Wonder Woman.
[45:02]
Trixie Mattel
A Woman who Wonders. That's your new POD name, too. A woman who wonders.
[45:06]
Kelly Mantle
I also went one year with a guitar and a Darth Vader mask and called myself Darth Brooks.
[45:12]
Trixie Mattel
So you carried.
[45:13]
Katya Zamolodchikova
That's funny.
[45:13]
Trixie Mattel
You wore a mask and carried an acoustic instrument to the bars.
[45:17]
Kelly Mantle
Well, it wasn't the bars. It was a stage thing.
[45:20]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Wow, that's funny.
[45:21]
Kelly Mantle
And I didn't want to put on makeup that day, so I was Darth Brooks.
[45:25]
Trixie Mattel
Do you ever miss? Well, I guess I could ever miss, like we talked about on the pod, when you came on with me, you didn't really do drag in, like, a regular sense before. Before you were, like, primarily acting. You were primarily acting the whole time.
[45:38]
Kelly Mantle
I was. I was a huge fan of drag shows, and I would go to the clubs all the time and watch drag shows, but I never really was in the drag shows at the club.
[45:47]
Trixie Mattel
So when you did Drag Race.
[45:48]
Kelly Mantle
When I did Drag Race, I didn't have that five night a week experience of putting looks together and styling hair and putting, you know, outfits together and makeup and the whole thing. I had usually always had it done for me or, you know, was doing it for a character that I was playing or something like that. So I really got in over my head on that one girl. Damn. But it's one of those things where they say, you know, like, when you go into an audition, they say, do you speak Russian? You're like, sure. And then you'll go home and, like, figure it out, because you just want to get the role so it was kind of like, oh, shit. They'd been asking me to be on Drag Race for so many, you know, the first two seasons, and then it dropped off, and they didn't ask me anymore. And then season six came rolling around. I thought, well, I can do this. How hard can it be? It's hard.
[46:33]
Trixie Mattel
They said, kelly, we heard that you don't own many wigs, and you don't really lip sync or work in clubs, and we need you on Drag Race. Well, you know, we need that point of view.
[46:41]
Kelly Mantle
I was so used to being on sets where you kind of get to ask them, can you put the camera over on this side? Because this is my good side. Or I was on the set of Drag Race, and I didn't realize, because I'd never been on a reality show before, the cameras would come over here, and I'd be like, you all. Can you all come over to this side and shoot me from this angle? And they're like, kelly, you can't talk to the camera person. Why not? And so when Rue came up to our workstations, I said, I think, could you stand on this side since the cameras are right here?
[47:18]
Katya Zamolodchikova
That's why they cut you.
[47:19]
Kelly Mantle
That's why they sent me home.
[47:21]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Yes.
[47:21]
Kelly Mantle
Because I didn't think anything of it. I thought, oh, everyone just works like that, and they'll be cool with it, you know, because Rue's gorgeous. She's got two good sides, and she looked at me and she's like, okay, you and she.
[47:34]
Trixie Mattel
She had you.
[47:35]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Wait, she. She did.
[47:36]
Trixie Mattel
RuPaul can have you audited like that. RuPaul has a lot of power, so.
[47:39]
Kelly Mantle
That'S probably why I went home.
[47:41]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Yeah.
[47:41]
Trixie Mattel
Damn.
[47:42]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Damn.
[47:43]
Kelly Mantle
But I didn't know that you weren't supposed to do that to tell RuPaul.
[47:47]
Trixie Mattel
Where to stand and talk directly to the camera. Well, no, it's not the news, Kelly.
[47:50]
Kelly Mantle
Tell her.
[47:50]
Trixie Mattel
She's, like, in the. Doing the weather in the work room.
[47:52]
Kelly Mantle
I asked very nicely. I said, do you mind?
[47:57]
Trixie Mattel
Oh, my God, that's almost worse.
[47:58]
Katya Zamolodchikova
That is worse.
[47:59]
Trixie Mattel
And that Southern accent. Hey, doll.
[48:01]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Yeah.
[48:01]
Trixie Mattel
Could you just. Yeah.
[48:02]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Would you do me a favor, Rue?
[48:06]
Trixie Mattel
Kelly, I think it's fine. Can I be honest, Kelly? I think the point of view that you offer that's so special is in some ways, you're, like, so beyond tuned in and intuitive, and I think you have so much wisdom and, you know about everything, but in other ways, you're like, what's dvr?
[48:19]
Kelly Mantle
Yeah, you literally know dvr.
[48:21]
Trixie Mattel
That's what I mean. You know and don't know such.
[48:23]
Kelly Mantle
Is that. Is that a sexually transmitted. To see.
[48:26]
Trixie Mattel
Yeah, well, they're called STIs now. Infections.
[48:30]
Kelly Mantle
Oh, diseases.
[48:31]
Trixie Mattel
It's very 90s. It's very queer.
[48:33]
Kelly Mantle
STI.
[48:34]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Like, you would be familiar with, like, four different kinds of Mongolian silk, but you don't know what a stop sign is.
[48:41]
Kelly Mantle
Yes, I actually don't know what for Mongolian silks are either.
[48:46]
Trixie Mattel
Are you tech savvy, Kelly?
[48:47]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Yeah.
[48:48]
Kelly Mantle
Yes, I think. Well, no, actually, I'm not. I meant to sent you one the other day. I sent you this thing. Did you get it?
[48:56]
Trixie Mattel
Sent me one.
[48:57]
Kelly Mantle
I sent you a text.
[48:58]
Trixie Mattel
Oh, a text. Tech savvy. Tech. Technology savvy.
[49:02]
Kelly Mantle
Oh, no.
[49:05]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Do you have a satellite dish?
[49:08]
Kelly Mantle
I think I. This reminds me. I had a dream about Trixie a couple of months ago, and you were the spectrum cable person, and you showed up in, like, overalls, but you were dressed as your thing. No, you climbed up. I was in the drop of the cable pole. Yes, in overalls.
[49:29]
Trixie Mattel
Kelly, if you.
[49:30]
Kelly Mantle
And you were trying to unhook my cable and I was knocking on my window going, why are you unhooking my cable? You were the spectrum cable woman. The cable came to my thing, at least. No, I don't have a satellite dish. I have spectrum cable.
[49:44]
Trixie Mattel
Did I look good?
[49:45]
Kelly Mantle
Yes.
[49:46]
Trixie Mattel
Hey, honestly, if you see me outside your house, hanging off your building, trying to unhook your cable, don't ask no question. Leave me alone.
[49:51]
Kelly Mantle
You had on brown shoes.
[49:53]
Trixie Mattel
Oh, my God.
[49:56]
Kelly Mantle
I just remember brown shoes because they were dangling.
[50:00]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Dangly brown shoes.
[50:02]
Trixie Mattel
Dangly brown shoes.
[50:03]
Kelly Mantle
Yes. And you were the spectrum cable woman.
[50:06]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Spears.
[50:10]
Trixie Mattel
What happens at the gym? Our producers have told us to ask you what you do at the gym because you're always in such great shape.
[50:16]
Katya Zamolodchikova
You pick people's pockets, don't you? You go through the locker room.
[50:19]
Kelly Mantle
I go to the lockers. I think I smell their JOC straps.
[50:22]
Trixie Mattel
I think you're one of those people who only does an elliptical and has jeans on and sunglasses.
[50:26]
Kelly Mantle
Yeah.
[50:26]
Katya Zamolodchikova
And top and bottom lashes.
[50:28]
Kelly Mantle
No, I love my workout gear.
[50:30]
Trixie Mattel
What's going on there?
[50:31]
Kelly Mantle
It's all black and everything is, like, skin tight. I love it.
[50:36]
Trixie Mattel
Is it a brimmed hat and a cape?
[50:39]
Kelly Mantle
I do. I wear a hat, but no cape. But I do wear a hat. And my. My little workout jacket that I love to wear has shoulder pad. Like, little mini shoulder pads in it.
[50:50]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Oh, my God.
[50:51]
Kelly Mantle
I know.
[50:51]
Katya Zamolodchikova
What's your favorite exercise?
[50:53]
Kelly Mantle
Elliptical.
[50:54]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Okay.
[50:54]
Kelly Mantle
I do 30 minutes on the elliptical. I do 20 minutes on the Bike and I lift at the same time.
[51:02]
Trixie Mattel
Oh, I think that's kind of efficient.
[51:04]
Katya Zamolodchikova
That's crazy.
[51:06]
Kelly Mantle
Killing two birds with one step.
[51:07]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Absolutely.
[51:07]
Kelly Mantle
And then I lay the mat out and I do my crunches and then I do a pull down bar thing and then I do my butt exercises and then I sit in the sauna for 10 minutes. But I'm a germaphobe and so I don't do well in gems. And so what I do is I carry these little out of order signs with me in my gym bag and I will put them on the elliptical next to me and the elliptical over here so that no one will come and get on the machine next to me.
[51:40]
Katya Zamolodchikova
That is so.
[51:41]
Kelly Mantle
And I also put one on the sauna when I get there so that no one gets in the sauna before I get in.
[51:48]
Katya Zamolodchikova
You are scamtina.
[51:50]
Kelly Mantle
It works. It works.
[51:53]
Katya Zamolodchikova
You are scamming. You're Joanne the scammer. That's what you do.
[51:55]
Kelly Mantle
It does. And then people will come up and go out of order. I just scream because I have my headphones in and I can't. I just go out of order.
[52:03]
Trixie Mattel
Keep walking, sweaty, like.
[52:05]
Kelly Mantle
But I don't understand this because this is the reason I do it. There will be a line of 10 elliptical machines and a person will walk in. All those will be empty and they'll get on the one right next to.
[52:15]
Trixie Mattel
You and you're like, what?
[52:16]
Kelly Mantle
So weird.
[52:17]
Trixie Mattel
I know.
[52:17]
Kelly Mantle
So that's why I started doing it.
[52:19]
Trixie Mattel
Yeah, that's weird.
[52:21]
Kelly Mantle
I'm very efficient.
[52:22]
Trixie Mattel
I have a black member. A black. Well, I have a black card membership. I have a black card membership at Planet Fitness cuz it's only $20 a month and they're everywhere. Are they, are they a glamorous gym? No, but there's locations everywhere. So if you're on tour, whatever, no matter how lazy you are, 0.5 miles away, it's always 0.5 miles away. You know, I'm that brand of, of where I won't walk or run to the gym because that's too much. But I'll go there and walk and run. So I don't know what that is.
[52:49]
Kelly Mantle
But I had Bally's. I was a member of Bally's Total Fitness. Yes. I think they're still taking money out of my account. But this is a smaller, more private gym. But it's still busy all the time.
[53:00]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Oh yeah, I don't like that.
[53:01]
Kelly Mantle
It's crazy.
[53:02]
Trixie Mattel
I like the Planet Fitness because it's not glamorous, but it's super affordable. And for $20 a month, I think you get more than what you.
[53:09]
Katya Zamolodchikova
It's like a dollar a day.
[53:10]
Trixie Mattel
And it is regular people. And, you know, my self image goes up and down and I like that. It's not supermodels. Me and librarians and car insurance people. You know what I mean? Like working out.
[53:22]
Kelly Mantle
It's like your Dave and Busters.
[53:24]
Trixie Mattel
It's my Dave and Busters. And I gotta go because my points are gonna expire.
[53:28]
Kelly Mantle
What? Your Dave Investor points?
[53:29]
Trixie Mattel
16, 000 points.
[53:30]
Kelly Mantle
I want to go with you, girl. I love Dave investors. You've never been? No, we're going. We're having a date night out at Dave and Buster's. There's a wonderful one there on Hol Highland where James and I go all the time. I went at the basketball hoops.
[53:46]
Katya Zamolodchikova
Ooh.
[53:49]
Kelly Mantle
Nice little flow through with that wrist. And I won a little necklace that had a K on it.
[53:55]
Trixie Mattel
For what? Kelly. For Kelly Ketamine. I don't know why I thought of like, ketamine.
[54:02]
Katya Zamolodchikova
