Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Origins of Friendship & Comedy Gigs

• Trixie and Robby reminisce about meeting at a comedy show at Silver Lake Lounge, immediately clicking over their shared oddball energy.
• Lanai vs. Patio debate – Trixie teases the glamorous-sounding "lanai" at the gig, which was, in reality, a smoky back alley.

  “I can get us a table at the lanai.” – Trixie [06:19]

• Robby discusses her aggressive kindness and how she's often misperceived as rough but is truly "aggressively kind" (07:10).

2. Dog Lesbians vs Cat Lesbians and Domestic Life

• Robby juggles both: inherited her partner Gabby's dog while sticking to her OG cat ("the dog terrorizes the cat").
• Discussion morphs into queer stereotypes and well-worn jokes about lesbian pets, delivered with love.

3. Award Season Realness – The Emmys Meltdown

• Robby details her journey from small shows to being Emmy-nominated and losing – a mix of comedy and sincere heartbreak.
  • She and her sister were sure she’d win; their sore-loser exit becomes the stuff of podcast legend.

  “My sister goes, we don't need this shit. Pushes me out. Okay. She grabs me by the arm and we're leaving this shit.” – Robby [10:09]

• On presenting at the Emmys after losing:

  “It is criminal that they have me presenting contractually in such a state.” – Robby [12:41]

• The greenroom described as “conference room with too much crudité and coffee” [18:01]
• Trixie's emotional support for Robby at the Emmys — “You became mommy” [10:49] — showcases the warmth of queer friendships.

4. Growing Up Poor, Jewish, and Funny

Childhood Chaos

• Robby shares her background: large Orthodox Jewish family, financial hardship, and “dreaming low.”

  “My mother told us school's not for everyone. She told us that a lot. And dream low, honey.” – Robby [25:57]

• Finding comedy and hustling as a craft born from not having material things, leading to a thick-skinned, humorous family dynamic.
• On dreaming of wealth:

  “I wanted a lot of it, right? I want an extreme. Like, we're going here. I couldn't see myself happier for under a million.” – Robby [29:46]

Material Things & Style

• Robby’s personal possessions are few but cherished and high quality, e.g., her signature (child’s) glasses and her lasting devotion to good things.
• Both discuss the transformation of thrift shopping from a stigma to a badge of queer-cool.

5. Queer Family, Marriage, and Chosen Love

• Robby on not growing up dreaming of marriage, but finding her “loophole” — choosing Gabby as family as an adult.

  “That was the one perspective change I had with it. Gab and I are family, ancestral because we touch each other, but it’s the one type of family you know you get to choose.” – Robby [50:00]

• Reflections on religious holidays, the joys and challenges of Christmas vs. Hanukkah, and the modern queer reclamation of tradition and childhood wishes.
• Tooth Fairy story: chaotic, relatable, and hilarious family anecdote about her mother accidentally revealing the truth.

  "It's me, it's Ma, I'm the Tooth Fairy. It's my money. There is no Tooth Fairy." – Robby [59:08]

6. Money, Morality, and Hospitality (Poor v. Rich)

• Both discuss the morality of generosity, food, and party-hosting:

  “If people were... my mother said, take, take, take.” – Robby [51:20]

• Shading LA gays for inviting people over with meager snacks; both advocate hosting with abundance regardless of status.
• Robby’s Netflix special party had a bartender and catering for all, modeling this learned generosity.

7. Style, Makeup, and Showbiz Survival

• Robby discusses her unique personal style, signature glasses, and doing her own makeup for everything:

  “You have to, the lights, people don’t realize, are... like, blinding lights. In such bright lighting... you would lose so much if you weren’t visible.” – Robby [54:13]

• Both agree stage and camera require at least a little makeup, regardless of gender.

8. Living in LA, Culture, and the Odd Magic of the City

• Both express resignation and affection for LA and New York: “LA is a shithole, but nowhere else to live.” – Robby [54:54]
• Brief riff on politics, plastic surgery, and what it means for iconic figures in each city/state to become figureheads.

9. Final Thoughts: Teeth, Tour Life, and Indie Hustle

• Funny, honest talk about dental care as a proxy for class, adulthood, and self-care.

  “If I could just tell everyone here listening today... if you could floss today, it'll save you a toothpull tomorrow.” – Trixie [62:10]

• Robby plugs her special and announces new tour dates (15 cities — “not running myself ragged”).
• Closing on the triumph of making a “360 life” and bringing authenticity and inherited morality into queer success.

Okay, enough about me. You kids go have your fun. Go watch that gay. Do you do? Do you do. When you do acting, you're beyond the world of auditioning. Probably. What do you feel about self tapes?

[Robbie]

I won't.

[Trixie Mattel]

You won't you?

[Robbie]

I gotta do a zoom. I. I like it back and forth. I like Something. It's not. I'm be. I'm not beyond auditioning. I auditioned for the Steve Carell Show. That's how I got that. I auditioned for Dying for Sex. Very large call out audition, obviously, for Hacks. They were inspired by me and thought, how do we pop this season off? And I said, I got you. How do we.

[Trixie Mattel]

Just sinking. Shit.

[Robbie]

Let's get Robbie in here. I got you. Yeah. Is that your dog?

[Trixie Mattel]

No, no, no, this is Luna. Luna is Mark's dog.

[Robbie]

No, I like the dog. It's a friendly dog. Yeah, no, that's a good dog. That's a good dog.

[Trixie Mattel]

We knew there would be.

[Robbie]

Was it not rolling? Oh, my God. It kills me.

[Trixie Mattel]

Whenever we have a lesbian here, we bring a dog.

[Robbie]

Yeah, no, that's fine.

[Trixie Mattel]

Now, what is the fundamental difference between a dog lesbian and a cat lesbian? Cause I think that's a different world.

[Robbie]

I just inherited a dog, right? Gabby came with a dog. I have a cat, obviously, you know, I don't like to work for a dog. The cat doesn't require much. A dog. You gotta go out at night. It's like answering to a dog. Like, I don't answer to enough in my life, right? And now I have to answer to a dog. But I'm fine. I have both now. And the dog terrorizes the cat. And that's how it is. She's just trying to live her life, and he needs to be a part of it.

[Trixie Mattel]

I wasn't familiar with what your wife looked like. And last night, while I was doing my research, I Googled it. What an absolute beauty.

[Robbie]

She's unbelievable.

[Trixie Mattel]

Wow.

[Robbie]

I have the greatest life I've heard about recently.

[Trixie Mattel]

You really do. I was watching. I was doing preparation for this, which is unprecedented because I think we're best friends. So I think I know everything about you. And then yesterday, I was like, I

[Robbie]

really love and respect you. And we'll get into how we became best friends.

[Trixie Mattel]

I think I know you so well. And then yesterday I was like, okay, I've only met her a couple times, and I've only seen a few things, but I think. I think we're lifelong friends.

[Robbie]

I think we're lifelong friends.

[Trixie Mattel]

You know, I tell people you're my

[Robbie]

boyfriend, and that's fine. And I've heard this. You know, I'm not on TikTok, but I get a lot that I'm big on TikTok. And I think I have you to thank for it because I'm Trixie's boyfriend.

[Trixie Mattel]

Thank you.

[Robbie]

And listen, if you need a Boyfriend from afar. I'm your guy.

[Trixie Mattel]

It costs nothing.

[Robbie]

It costs nothing and I'm here for you.

[Trixie Mattel]

Yeah, we met. We did. Was it Silver Lake Lounge?

[Robbie]

Yep.

[Trixie Mattel]

We did a comedy show at Silver Lake Lounge with I think it was the very gay paint guys.

[Robbie]

Yeah, I'm thinking of who knows us

[Trixie Mattel]

and who booked us. Probably them. Right.

[Robbie]

Checks out. I've done thousands of random shows as you have, so I'm sure it was. It was those guys and it was a great show and you were amazing.

[Sponsor/Announcer]

Me?

[Trixie Mattel]

You and Caleb?

[Robbie]

Yeah, Caleb Harrington. What a good lineup.

[Trixie Mattel]

No one knew why I was there, but it was that nobody. It had like a back lanai. The Silver Lake Lounge.

[Robbie]

What's a lanai? See, I'm already learning.

[Trixie Mattel]

It has like a little patio.

[Robbie]

A lanai.

[Trixie Mattel]

It's like a patio.

[Robbie]

Oh, a patio, right. See the queens lanai?

[Trixie Mattel]

I mean they say that on Golden Girls.

[Robbie]

Yeah, no, it is. It's very rich.

[Trixie Mattel]

I'm calling it a lanai. I'm pretty sure it's an alley that they put a picnic table in so that the comedians can smoke.

[Robbie]

Now a lanai from a patio. What is the difference? Okay, one just sounds like better than everyone or is there a real, you know, architectural difference?

[Trixie Mattel]

I think that a lanai communicates. Don't you think I feel like trashy?

[Robbie]

No, no, no. I literally feel. I feel incredible that I was on a lanai. I had no idea.

[Sponsor/Announcer]

Right?

[Robbie]

I was on this lanai.

[Trixie Mattel]

This was huge.

[Robbie]

And now I'm like a goes to a lanai. Like, you don't think I've been to the lanai?

[Trixie Mattel]

I go, listen, I can get us a table at the lanai.

[Robbie]

I know, I'm obsessed. I'm obsessed. I'm already learning so much.

[Trixie Mattel]

Two minutes in the lanai. The Silver Li Lake Lounge. You and I were sitting in the back.

[Robbie]

Cuz it doesn't seem like the place that will have anai.

[Trixie Mattel]

Well, it's in the name the Silver Lake. But even that lounge, you know, you Silver Lakes, you've got kind of.

[Robbie]

Right, that's true, that's true.

[Trixie Mattel]

Lounge. Ooh, yeah, that's true. And they really could have this over Lake Lanai, which is behind. And I was sitting with the opposite. So funny and so wonderful. And I was in drag. And maybe that's why I think we're in a relationship. Because sometimes when I'm in drag and someone's so nice to me, I'm like, well, we're in love.

[Robbie]

I'm happy that you said that because I come off aggressive. People don't take me for nice. Right. And I've joked about this, that I'm opposite Ellen in terms of. Ellen purports to be kind and nice. Remember, she was dancing.

[Trixie Mattel]

Yeah.

[Robbie]

But then people said she was a terror to work with. Well, I come off aggressive and rough around the edges, but I'm actually a delight. I'm actually kind and sweet. You can be aggressive and sweet. I'm aggressively kind. How's that?

[Trixie Mattel]

I felt that energy.

[Robbie]

I think you sat on my lap. Or I sat on yours. It was a very. We had a very maternal.

[Trixie Mattel]

Paternal.

[Robbie]

Or paternal.

[Trixie Mattel]

One of us was the mother, one was the father, and moment to moment, I couldn't tell who was who. The sun or.

[Robbie]

But in that case, right now, you feel like the sun.

[Trixie Mattel]

Right.

[Robbie]

But you were my. My little girl. You were doing great.

[Trixie Mattel]

People say I look like that little boy from Malcolm in the Middle. Do you see him?

[Robbie]

I do.

[Trixie Mattel]

And, you know, he wasn't available for the reboot. No one called me.

[Robbie]

He wasn't unavailable. He didn't want to do it.

[Trixie Mattel]

Oh, yeah. I think he's retired from acting. I love when people are like, I know. I just retired.

[Robbie]

I just. Yeah, I just love it.

[Trixie Mattel]

Do you watch the boys on Amazon Prime?

[Robbie]

I don't.

[Trixie Mattel]

This actress who wasn't in the finale, I was like, why wasn't she in the finale? And they were like, after the boys, she just retired. Irish actress being like, I'm just gonna go live life.

[Robbie]

It's wonderful.

[Trixie Mattel]

I think it's so cunty.

[Robbie]

Do you think you'd ever do it?

[Trixie Mattel]

Of. No. Yeah, for sure. Maybe today. Kati retired, I guess.

[Robbie]

Yeah. Well, she's a procedure. I've heard that before.

[Trixie Mattel]

And how does she feel about you that she won't be here when you're here? She went to the hospital to avoid this.

[Robbie]

I have no idea how she's going to feel. And you know what? I don't care.

[Trixie Mattel]

You don't care?

[Robbie]

How's that? How's that?

[Trixie Mattel]

I have to say, I. We did the Silver Lake Lounge, and then literally, I feel like I blinked, and we were at the Emmys when you were nominated.

[Robbie]

I was nominated, and I felt like

[Trixie Mattel]

I had to manage your emotions because you were. I wanted you to win. You wanted you to win. I've never met somebody organically in the wild that then was nominated for an Emmy, so I was like, this is crazy for me. It was crazy. This is our little. This is our girl from the Silver Lake Lounge. From the Lanai.

[Robbie]

I was on the Lanai and then I was on the Emmy stage, and as you know, it's all rigged. I'm kidding. I was there with my sister. I was there with my sister, and I was the biggest sore loser. So I lose immediately. I don't know if you watched the ceremony. So I lose immediately. We're the first award up. I'm immediately lost. And we woke up with all the gusto in the world.

[Trixie Mattel]

Right?

[Robbie]

My sister Chaya and I wake up and she's like, it's a shoo in. Like, we're already acting like we got the Emmy. We got the mimosas.

[Trixie Mattel]

You started crying.

[Robbie]

No, we were like, oh, my God, who's even in the ca. Like, it's not even close. And meanwhile, the category is literally Olivia Colman. Zoe Kravitz. It's like insane PM we're like, it's a shoe in. So we are beyond surprise to lose. Like, I walk in, like, I'm already like, where am I gonna put the Emmy? I gotta put it next to my writing. Emm. We're building a collection now. And so we lose immediately. My sister goes, we don't need this shit. Pushes me out. Okay. She grabs me by the arm and we're leaving this shit.

[Trixie Mattel]

Yeah.

[Robbie]

You can see us, I think in the. In the. You see us immediately leaving.

[Trixie Mattel]

That's good.

[Robbie]

We lose and we leave. And we are stewing. And you embraced the stew. We're back in the green room. We're horrified that we lost. It's. It's homophobia. It's anti Semitism. I'll throw in transphobia. Absolutely is sick. Meanwhile, Ju. Julianne Nicholson, who Beyond deserves it 1. And if not for me, her for hacks. You know, she was amazing and she was the best, but people her. Jill, you. I love you so much. She was the best too, but it's like the people. You really were hearing us out.

[Trixie Mattel]

Oh, yeah.

[Robbie]

You. You became mommy.

[Trixie Mattel]

Absolutely.

[Robbie]

Especially to my older sister because she was like, this is. And you were like, it is. It's disgusting.

[Trixie Mattel]

It's horrible.

[Robbie]

It's horrible.

[Trixie Mattel]

I was sitting there in drag because Kelly and I were presenting for, like, Kelly Mantle was presenting for best sci fi hairstyling, which she really should be presenting for. Best sci fi face or some shit.

[Robbie]

Yeah.

[Trixie Mattel]

Like, she has like a Law and order hair on. Presenting, like, best sci fi hair. That's.

[Sponsor/Announcer]

Sure.

[Trixie Mattel]

Meanwhile, I'm in this, like, stacked triple wig that I did the night before. I'm like, no, Kelly, I'll present the human haircut award. Literally, you do the Sci fi hair award or whatever.

[Robbie]

I did.

[Trixie Mattel]

Yeah, but you were early in the. In the thing. Yeah, we were in this little green room. I didn't even. I guess. What do they call the non televised. The creative enemies. Is that what it is? It was the creative enemies, which. They're still the Emmys. They always act like that's like the cracker Barrel. No one cares.

[Robbie]

Well, nobody does care.

[Trixie Mattel]

Well, I cared until you lost. Then I was like, well, this is a sham.

[Robbie]

Yeah, no, it was a sham. And then they wanted me even more sick because there's a masochistic vibe there. They want me. I go, we're leaving, right? So the Emmy managers, people, producers that go, oh, you're still presenting. I had to present cinematography. I said, no, I don't want to do that anymore. This is. No, it's part of the program. You got to do the cinematography, you know, like. And I was like, well, my circumstances changed. Right now my circumstances have changed. Why? So I'm not in the mood, and they want me to read whatever on this teleprompter showing me. You got to present. I go, one thing I know, I'm not saying whatever the fuck they have me on there saying, right? I got out there finally, and they were like, you know, we had champagne with you. We were, calm down. Two hours later, I have to go present. Now I'm being forced. I felt like, what kind of a sick. They want you to hold an Emmy for somebody else?

[Trixie Mattel]

That's what I'm saying.

[Robbie]

It could have been yours.

[Trixie Mattel]

That's what I'm.

[Robbie]

Well, I'm giving somebody else an Emmy now. It's criminal. So I get out there and I go, I lost. There's nothing to say. And it is criminal that they have me presenting contractually in such a state.

[Trixie Mattel]

Right.

[Robbie]

And it just, for some reason, brought the house down. It was one of those things that I was like, burn it down. When I get into a tantrum, I'm like, I'm not calm. I'm not relaxing. I can't de escalate. All I do is escalate, right? And it just brought the house down. I guess the ceremony had been so long in the way that they are, that people were just like, finally a sore loser.

[Trixie Mattel]

That's what I was like, can we be real? Like, I felt like I remember you came back, and it was exciting. I got to see beforehand, and you came back, and I'm gonna be honest, you. I was actually refreshed by. You entered the room like your whole family was murdered. Yeah. And you sat on the couch and you were, like, kind of in shock, but you felt like you were in shock that you were actually upset about not winning. You had said to me, like, I didn't think I cared. And now I lost. And now I'm mad or now upset.

[Robbie]

Oh, yeah. Because I never even figured you prepared, like, from nomination to this. Like, my whole family's like, she's an Emmy winner, right? Like, who else is it going to be? My brother Smoley is like, who else is it going to be? There's amazing. Olivia Colman is. You know what I mean? So we just didn't even think. It was shocking. And then it was shocking. I cared because I never even thought, how am I getting these feelings? There was so foreign.

[Trixie Mattel]

I did not know. Had you already won an Emmy before this?

[Robbie]

Yes.

[Trixie Mattel]

Okay, so this is a part of the story that I think we need to add color to, which is you have won an Emmy.

[Robbie]

Yeah, I've won an Emmy. You don't think I wrote an episode of kids television for PBS that won an Emmy? Wake up. Wake up, which is also the name of my Netflix special, which is doing very well. Check it out. I don't check emails. Enjoy at your own risk.

[Trixie Mattel]

I just was like, I did feel bad about you not winning until I yesterday Googled that you had already won one. To which I have two things. One, I'm sort of like, well, now we can't say that it's rigged because you have one.

[Robbie]

That's true.

[Trixie Mattel]

So if we say then that one doesn't.

[Robbie]

We can't say anything is. First of all, I'm wrong, right? That's the whole thing. Okay? I'm going to look for any excuse that isn't me. I'm not gonna say my performance, you know, before I say, oh, somebody had a better performance than me. I'll say, it's anti Semitism. It's this. I like to defer blame for a long time before I go, rob, did somebody do better than you?

[Trixie Mattel]

Right.

[Robbie]

All fair.

[Trixie Mattel]

It's fair.

[Robbie]

All fair. I'm being a baby and I need my tantrum. I'm the same way. If I'm sad, I throw Radiohead on. I'm like, we're in sad. I don't try and pep up. I don't try and put on something peppy. I go in when I'm thrilled. I got girls just wanna have fun, right? I like, I like. I lean in, right? If I'm thrilled, I'm driving. If it makes you happy, it can't be that bad. Right? So all of. So you're seeing in real time. It's not like with the Emmys. It's not like stand up or acting or writing where I get a lot of practice, right? Writing. I can't. I can't read what I wrote 10 years ago. It's abysmal. Stand up. I. I can't even. I shudder at the thought of what I was talking about, right? Because I've had so much practice with the Emmys. You get to go once every God knows when. You maybe have three. You know, I went. I had an Emmy. I had no experience. It's not like I get to build up a muscle of losing an Emmy.

[Trixie Mattel]

Right. Cause you'd never lost before.

[Robbie]

Well, yes, I had been nominated with the team before on odd Squad, but we didn't win. But I wasn't on that Emmy. And then when I was on the Emmy, we won the Emmy is how I believe it was. So, yes, I didn't have this experience. I had experience with the show, the kids show that I worked on losing. But it wasn't as personal, Right. This felt personal and vindictive. Robbie Hoffman lost, not the show. And it made me sick. And in fact, the show won as it deserved to hacks for Julianne Nicholson. And she was the best. She let me be a baby. And I said, I'm such a baby, and I'm so happy for you. I said, I have a different recollection.

[Trixie Mattel]

I remember being backstage and seeing your name on an award. I remember seeing, like, a lot of like. And then they kind of wiped the name off and changed it. That's what I saw.

[Robbie]

Oh, okay. And the plot thickens.

[Trixie Mattel]

Hello.

[Robbie]

The plot thickens.

[Trixie Mattel]

Did you end up having wine out of Kelly Mantle's purse? Is that where we got the wine?

[Robbie]

It was dry back there, girl.

[Trixie Mattel]

So you know why? Because they had drag queens, and they're like, we can't very well. Because you know what?

[Robbie]

The room were sober of that green room. And also the. The people from the pit. Yeah, she was amazing. And her husband. We were all. And they won, but they were still into a stew. Like, the green room was. There was nothing. First of all, my sister spent $400 on a top. She's like, I've come all the way for Arizona for this.

[Trixie Mattel]

Right?

[Robbie]

It's an hour away, by the way. It's an hour away.

[Trixie Mattel]

It was like a conference room with, like, too much crudite and coffee.

[Robbie]

Coffee, booze, champagne. Nothing. We had to scour it.

[Trixie Mattel]

Yeah. Kelly Mantle had A long black purse that was shaped like a wine bottle. Guess what was in it? She brought wine.

[Robbie]

I love that room.

[Trixie Mattel]

Temple.

[Robbie]

No, you guys were.

[Trixie Mattel]

Took that shaking hand and poured it in. And also those two women from Hunting wise were back there.

[Robbie]

They were incredible.

[Trixie Mattel]

What beauties.

[Robbie]

My God, they were so gorgeous.

[Trixie Mattel]

Malin and Brittany.

[Robbie]

Brittany Snow and I were really hot.

[Trixie Mattel]

I never go up to people, but I did have to go up to two people now.

[Robbie]

Well, first of all, that is the

[Trixie Mattel]

kind of room it's not count as going up to, Right?

[Robbie]

Because that's the whole point of it. You're at a networking thing. You're at the fucking Emmys. They stick you in a room with a bunch of people who are nominated and have good right to be there, right? And you're supposed to say hello. It's fair game to say hello. It's a. Like this. I went to the Vanity Fair party and I really wanted to say, you know, like, Gab is the kind of person like you, like. She's just. She doesn't give a shit about anyone. She's like, when can I go home and sleep? Well, I'll do an hour. I'll have a couple ciggies. And I want to go home and sleep. And I do the hell you know what I mean? Because that's the only time it's fair game. You could go up to anyone you want. You go up to Nicole Kidman. Nicole, you smell lovely. Moving on. Smelling you all now, literally, it's like, who cares, right? That is what you've signed up for when you go to one of these parties.

[Trixie Mattel]

Well, you're not being paid. You got to get paid in some way.

[Robbie]

You're not being paid in any other way. Why shouldn't I run home and tell my family that she smelled amazing.

[Trixie Mattel]

Yeah.

[Robbie]

Big.

[Sponsor/Announcer]

Really?

[Trixie Mattel]

Do you drink? You drink, right?

[Robbie]

I do, but my wife doesn't.

[Trixie Mattel]

Oh. So you got to kind of like have dignity about it.

[Robbie]

She'll smoke with. She's fine. She's just okay. She doesn't care.

[Trixie Mattel]

She'll put you home in a. What we're.

[Robbie]

She's like, you know, and people. You know, and it was the first time that people are coming up to me. What I found is I was always that person at the party. Like, you know, not that I'm specifically, but you get stuck in conversations with people. So many people were like, robbie, I loved your special. And I said, see, now it's happening. I'm not mad when it's happening to me.

[Trixie Mattel]

No, it's.

[Robbie]

Am I mad when somebody beautiful. The guy who played. Oh, he played in the, in the Kennedy that news. That show that just happened with what's his name? Carolyn Bassett. And

[Trixie Mattel]

you know, Kennedy.

[Robbie]

Bassett girl. What's the Kennedy show called? Love Story. He is he stunning? He comes up to me.

[Trixie Mattel]

The lesbians have said he's stunning.

[Robbie]

Yeah. No, but because I have to objectively, I could say somebody is gorgeous, right? What's his name from Twilight? It came up to me. The fellows are loving me.

[Trixie Mattel]

I heard he lives in my neighborhood and I'm always like on the secret watch, you know, I am not even like a Twilight person, but if I go to for some reason when you go to a hotel, it's going to be playing on the tv. And I always am like, well, it's on now.

[Robbie]

Hotel tv. It's, it's a calming.

[Trixie Mattel]

I want something so ambient that I like will not be convinced of ambient at all.

[Robbie]

Ambient and lanai. Those are my two take a home takeaways so far.

This episode is sponsored by Green Chef. I'm here to tell you a little story about my past eating habits. I was once a starving pilgrim in the vast and lawless wilderness of online food trends, staggering beneath the sky darkened by protein pudding, cloud bread, cucumber smoothies and bowls of beige paste that promised immortality but delivered only confusion and sadness. I tried the quick fixes. I followed the glowing profits of the algorithm. I briefly surrendered myself to a health trend so bleak, so joyless, so spiritually suspicious that my lunch looked less like food and more like evidence from a swamp trial concerning alligator on alligator violence. But then, through the online fog, Green Chef appeared not as a gimmick, not as a fad, as a bastion. A warm golden citadel of real food, real recipes and healthy eating that actually feels possible. Where fad diets fail, Green Chef delivers meals that make eating well, easy, delicious and lasting.

That's why millions of people rely on Planned Parenthood health centers for services like cancer screenings, wellness exams, birth control, STI tests, and more. In fact, one in three women in the US have been to Planned Parenthood for care. So it kind of blows my mind that lawmakers are trying to permanently shut them down. They already passed a law that blocks patients that use Medicaid from getting the affordable preventative care they need, and now they want to make that law permanent. Nobody benefits when people are getting fewer exams, paying more for care, or just skipping the health care they need. And we know that's happening. Planned Parenthood health centers have reported that fewer patients are getting basic care like breast exams and STI tests since the Trump administration in their backers defunded Planned Parenthood. Patients shouldn't suffer because of their laws. Our communities deserve better to get involved Text update to 22422 Today's episode of

How did you figure out that this was your calling? Because, my God, you're talking about people coming up to you and saying they love you. I imagine that you were pretty universally loved. You must have figured out pretty early that this is what you were supposed to do.

[Robbie]

Well, no, we never. I never had any dreams. I never had hopes or dreams. We weren't taught, you know, to want anything. Yeah. Like, we were taught that it was, like, not going to happen. Good. Like, we should just lay low and try and get a job. University. My mother told us school's not for everyone. She told us that a lot. And dream low, honey, you know, and it was already pretty disappointing. I mean, I was born in New York, which, if you, you know, you're like, okay, that sounds pretty good. Pretty lucky.

[Trixie Mattel]

I didn't say that.

[Robbie]

No, that's. But that's, you know. And then I'm like, I found out I'm Jewish. That's okay. That's looking up. They're doing pretty well.

[Trixie Mattel]

When did your family.

[Robbie]

And then it's like, poor on welfare. It was like, how did we fumble this bag? But we were from a very large Orthodox Jewish family, and we were not on the rich side. We just missed the boat on so many things. Like, we're in the weirdest pocket of a community that otherwise, I think was doing very well.

[Trixie Mattel]

So I think it's a harsh stereotype that a lot all Jewish people are rich, because let me tell you, that's not true. But a lot are, right?

[Robbie]

But here's the thing. A lot are.

[Trixie Mattel]

Why are you yelling at me?

[Robbie]

No, because we were so close. It pisses me off as a child. How did this happen to us? Well, I was literally so close. I was so close. So. So it started there, right? It started there. And then as a kid, I remember being, like, 10 years old, and, you know, we had cockroaches and cellophane on the windows for the cold. And I was just like, I gotta get out of here. Like, there's no way. This is. I got to get out. And I just felt like I had nothing Like, I literally. Like, that's not fair.

[Trixie Mattel]

You had the cockroaches.

[Robbie]

Yeah, exactly.

[Trixie Mattel]

You had cellophane.

[Robbie]

Exactly.

[Trixie Mattel]

You know, sometimes it's all about perspective. You could be like, some people don't even have cellophane.

[Robbie]

They don't even.

[Trixie Mattel]

Some people. Cockroaches are dead.

[Robbie]

I know. So I just felt like, so whatever. And then I realized at some point, well, I have close to nothing, but not nothing. I have me and the roaches.

[Trixie Mattel]

Oh, yeah.

[Robbie]

So that's when I was like, what could I do with this? I didn't even really want, but it was my only thing I had. The only card I could play was me, you know? And it's not for everyone to be born this and to be this. It's a unique, weird one to get, you know, if God or whoever is assigning bodies and souls. And he's going, rob, this one's for you. And I'm going, really?

[Trixie Mattel]

I love that kind of side.

[Robbie]

He's like, get out there. Good luck. And I'm like, so really particular type of person.

[Trixie Mattel]

The way that. The way you do that, it's gonna skip like. Like in the water.

[Robbie]

Yeah. Yeah. And there I am. And it's like, I've done well for what it is, what I've been. I don't think everybody could do me, you know, Like, I was given this, and I think I've. I've steered it pretty well. I've done the best I could with what I was given, and I think I actually did better than people. Like, we didn't, you know, such a particular one to have to guide and steer and drive, but the car works and drives. And I just kept updating it and I kept repairing it, and I kept making it as good as it could be. And we got here. I never knew of stand up, really, or anything. I grew up in a very funny family. I think when you don't have, like, tons of material stuff, you have yourselves, you have funny. You have, you know, making fun of each other. You know, it didn't matter what you had if you were slow. You know, my brother is special needs. We may. You know, we're like. He's on the blue, but, like, psychotic, right? He would yell at us, you know, my brother. My other brother was overweight. He would call him fat. Like, we just went there all the time, and we just developed thick skin and our personalities, which is like, you know, a blind person who has a better sense of smell or something like that. So I didn't really know of it all. I Wanted as a child, my only hope and dream was money. I really liked money. From a young age.

[Trixie Mattel]

You believed it would, like, feel good. It would, yeah.

[Robbie]

Yeah, I thought it would be great. And by the way, having some of it now, it's even better than I ever thought.

[Trixie Mattel]

Oh, my God, it's great. I hate to say that, but it's

[Robbie]

one of the best as well.

[Trixie Mattel]

And I always thought it was like, God, you just. You kind of just need some of that.

[Robbie]

Yeah, you do need some of that. You need. You need. And I wanted a lot of it, right? I want an extreme. Like, we're going here. I couldn't see myself happier for under a million.

[Trixie Mattel]

What kind of fancy shit do you like to buy? Like what. What's your.

[Robbie]

Having it?

[Trixie Mattel]

What do you mean? Oh, you just like to look at it, touch it.

[Robbie]

I like having the money and sleeping.

[Trixie Mattel]

Cool.

[Robbie]

I like things like that. My splurge is again. I don't buy many things, but I buy good things. You asked me about my glasses. My glasses, I got maybe 12, 13, 14 years ago now. They were on a teddy bear in the window of the optometrist. No, they had some sort of a holiday description.

[Trixie Mattel]

I literally thought you were gonna say, like, build a bear. Like, I had, like, I had these

[Robbie]

toys, glasses, but they had, like, glasses on shelves. And then they had a teddy bear, like a small teddy, wearing these. And I said, I think those would fit me because I have a very small head. You actually have a very narrow. You. We. I feel like we're similar.

[Trixie Mattel]

I wish mine was narrower. Oh, my God.

[Robbie]

So I have a small head. And then they were children's glasses. They were children's glasses, so they fit perfect. But then I had to haggle it down. I got them for 350, which at the time. Glasses are so expensive. They really are the Warby Parker. And, and, and, and, and, and lens. Like, this was like. You have to go to a specialized place for glasses. At least in Montreal at the time, it was all wrapped up in the medical. So I get the glass for 350 and I'm still wearing them, and they still look great. I take care. Very good that. Care of my things. It goes in this case. These are my prescription sunglasses. And I'm always swapping. I've never not taken. I don't buy many things, but I buy very good things and I want them to last. And I can like things forever. I think it's the reason I love marriage. I like. Just like I love Gabby forever. I do that. It's not unique to her. Of course I. I'm obsessed with her and I love that I found that in my wife. But I'm the same way with my watch, with my glasses, with a car. I'll just use it until I can't. Like, I will go the distance with it. I will update, fix, repair and repair. But I'll buy something good that can. You can do that with. So just having that also being able to help family and just like feel okay is just. I do.

[Trixie Mattel]

Like I have a sibling or something. I'm like, you need a tooth pulled because I got you financially. I got you.

[Robbie]

I got you. It's amazing.

[Trixie Mattel]

So it's really nice. I mean, that's something that, like when you're, when you're young and you worry about money and also, I don't know about you, but I always just felt so embarrassed of being the worst. Of course I felt embarrassing people over embarrassed. If it was like a school function and we needed money and I would feel like embarrassed of my clothes. I had an older brother, so it was hand down.

[Robbie]

Like, no, I was hideous. I had nothing to wear.

[Trixie Mattel]

Now I like look back and I'm like, wow. Nobody was making me feel ashamed of being poor. But I remember just full time feeling like, is anybody gonna know that I'm deeply poor?

[Robbie]

Everybody made me feel bad about being poor. And we were very poor, but we had other poor kids. I grew up in a neighborhood. We'd be like, well, you're on food stamp, so so are you, bitch.

[Trixie Mattel]

Right?

[Robbie]

It's like, we're both fucking poor. It's like, so you're. You know, people would say your father beats your mother. It's like, yeah, like, you know what I mean? Like, there was no low that you could not go. But yeah, I also then went to this Jewish school and I'm not shading. It was an amazing school and my mother thought it would be a great opportunity. They took me for free. It was a nice private school that I would take the bus to and my mother really like, would. Would get down on my level and be like, this is a good opportunity for you. Like, don't mess this up. Because I was a troublemaker and whatever. She, she really was begging me to take it. She's like, you know what a good opportunity this is for you to go to this school. And your brothers are in this school and that school. Just please, you know, because I couldn't just lay low in school.

[Trixie Mattel]

I always Robbie visits with neighbors. Are you a disturber in class?

[Robbie]

Yeah, I was a shit disturber. I was just talking.

[Trixie Mattel]

I had funny things to say and

[Robbie]

I wanted to tell the people around

[Trixie Mattel]

me, like, I know you're working, but I just thought of something so funny. I know you don't even like me.

[Robbie]

This is so funny.

[Trixie Mattel]

But guess what just happened?

[Robbie]

Because we didn't have the material. We really. And that became my assignment.

[Trixie Mattel]

Grades K to 12.

[Robbie]

It's terrible.

[Trixie Mattel]

It's a tough room. It's a long, tight fire.

[Robbie]

It's terrible. And also the teachers, you know, we had pop quizzes that I objected to. I said, a pop quiz is just so. Whoa. Haha. We got you. What's this gotcha moment? Just tell me when the quiz is so I can read the book and know the answers. This is ridiculous. Like the whole thing was like. So my mother be like, just do it. And I just, I had. I had authority problems. I had anger management. I just. The whole. Yeah, exactly. So I'm still that way. And in the end, I've been able to monetize it and quite well. Thank God. By the grace of God.

I existed in the sun drenched republic of childhood when vacation stretched before me like an endless meadow, every hour gilded with sprinkler mist berry stained laughter in the sacred fizz of soda. Brian Adams is everything I do, I do it for you blared from my boombox as I rode my BMX through those bright afternoons with the wind in my hair, the pavement hot under my tires, in my shadow stretching long across the town green as I chased nothing but freedom itself.

Today's episode of Bald and Beautiful is brought to you by Mood. Let me tell you, I am an adult person who loves to be in control of their life. Why is this important to know? Because I started using THC products when I moved to Los Angeles and I was about 30 years old. So unlike a lot of you unwashed swines, I have a very controlled, peaceful, like regulated entry into the world of thc and it was such a great thing for me. And maybe you don't know that there's an online cannabis company that ships federally legal THC right to your door. They have found a way to combine THC with carefully selected functional ingredients to create gummies, baked goods and flour for whatever type of buzz you want. For example, for me, sometimes when I'm doing remix stuff, like music stuff, I need to get my critical self out of the way. And sometimes a little bit of THC gets me in a very yes and mood where I'm just making decisions, I'm moving forward so I'm like relaxing while working and then later when I listen to the project back, I just notice I make bolder choices. I'm less precious about things. Like they have these morning Delta 9 gummies that are very energizing. It's a mental boost. I actually love that for a day off where like I'm going to do stuff around the house, I'm going to do hobbies, I'm going to be like mildly productive but not in like a work way, you know, and a very like nice day off. Go for a walk way cook some dinner. Way beyond gummies, Mood also has a selection of flour, pre rolls, bakery treats, beverages and I love it because they have functional gummies and flour. So they're revolutionizing over at Mood how we deal with life's challenges from sleepless nights to stress filled days. I have a loved one who recently told me that sleep is a big issue for him and Mood.com has created an entire line of functional gummies and functional flower crafted for your ideal mood.

Can I ask you a question about marriage?

[Robbie]

Yeah.

[Trixie Mattel]

I really feel like when you know, you know. Did you know immediately that you were going to marry her?

[Robbie]

Yeah. You know, I wasn't the little girl who always dreamed of getting married. Obviously you could tell, but I just, it felt like the one loophole to me because when I was a kid, I really hated a lot of my family, my brothers. We were very violent in the house. I mean, at one point we were 10 kids, you know, we were 10 kids in 12 years. So at one point there was like eight teenagers living.

[Trixie Mattel]

Nine people, nine siblings.

[Robbie]

Yeah.

[Trixie Mattel]

Holy. From the city that feels. I'm from the country. That's some country.

[Robbie]

No, it really would have been happier

[Trixie Mattel]

in the, in the country, I think.

[Robbie]

So I would have anyway.

[Trixie Mattel]

And siblings in the country.

[Robbie]

It's like, oh, hey, yeah, no, it was really bad. We were living in like, you know, a duplex and with apartments and everything.

[Trixie Mattel]

Too many people in that. To people, what is Christmas like with nine?

[Robbie]

Well, we don't do Christmas because we're Jewish.

[Trixie Mattel]

Although can I say, I've been to a lot of Jewish Christmases.

[Robbie]

Yeah, but they're not, see, but they weren't the Jews that we were.

[Trixie Mattel]

Right.

[Robbie]

See, we're doing. We're putting our money where our mouth is. We're doing the Jewish Torah, the Bible. We're doing all this and you're out here selling out and doing your fucking Christmas.

[Trixie Mattel]

Right.

[Robbie]

And we gotta be poor. We gotta be poor. The religious ones. It's like criminal. It's criminal. And now I've done Christmas, I've had three Christmases, in fact. These.

[Trixie Mattel]

What do you think of it?

[Robbie]

Prada sneakers, which I've wanted my whole life. I'm reliving the childhood. Gabby and I try and give ourselves the childhoods. I always wanted these. She got me these for Christmas.

[Trixie Mattel]

They're so cute.

[Robbie]

So hard. With Christmas, I'm all about. I've now said I don't.

[Trixie Mattel]

I mean, I'm not Christian. I love Christmas.

[Robbie]

It's amazing. I can't help. I get into the decor. I become a gay girl. The decoration. I have vintage things and ornaments and I have the fucking.

[Trixie Mattel]

What's your tree look like? Do you have a tree?

[Robbie]

We get a tree. We get a real tree. I like this. Give me that fucking.

[Trixie Mattel]

Do you also like pine needles in your foot, bitch?

[Robbie]

No, I don't have any. We're very neat.

[Trixie Mattel]

Can I tell you what happened to me this year? And the people on the pod know this. It was February. I know I say that word weird. February.

[Robbie]

No, no, they have to stop.

[Trixie Mattel]

February, sure.

[Robbie]

February.

[Trixie Mattel]

I walked outside my house, end of February and there's a goddamn real tree on the curb. Who throws their tree out after Valentine's Day?

[Robbie]

Is that too soon or too late?

[Trixie Mattel]

Are you kidding? I never knew that. Should be gone second week of January.

[Robbie]

Oh, no. We keep it whenever. What if it's healthy? I'm saying if it looks good, I'll keep it. When it starts dying, I get rid of it.

[Trixie Mattel]

If I had Halloween stuff out in

[Robbie]

December, I hate Halloween.

[Trixie Mattel]

People would tell me I was crazy.

[Robbie]

Halloween stuff is ugly. Christmas stuff is pretty. Halloween is ugly. It's not aesthetically.

[Trixie Mattel]

You like spooky. You don't like witchy.

[Robbie]

I don't like the. You don't like orange? I don't think it's the nicest color.

[Trixie Mattel]

Right.

[Robbie]

For the Halloween. That the kind of shade? I like the fall orange. More of the burnt orange.

[Trixie Mattel]

Sure.

[Robbie]

But once you get into that plastic pumpkin orange and the plastic stuff, no can do. Not pretty. I like the aesthetic look of Christmas stuff.

[Trixie Mattel]

I was with a Jewish man for like seven years and I got to do Hanukkah and it was so fun and lovely.

[Robbie]

Yeah. But there's nothing.

[Trixie Mattel]

But I was like a P Flag mom where when it was time to light the candles, I'm like filming. I'm like, oh, yes.

[Robbie]

Yeah, no, it's good.

[Trixie Mattel]

I was making a bigger deal out of it than a card carrying Jewish person was like, it's really just like lighting candles. Like say the prayer. I'm like, say it.

[Sponsor/Announcer]

This is Amazing.

[Trixie Mattel]

You should be so proud.

[Robbie]

I know my birthday is in December, so I always had Hanukkah fell the same time as my birthday. Many years. And my mother would give me. I always got Jude out of my present because she would give $20 if it was your birthday or $10, whatever. Whatever.

[Trixie Mattel]

She decided cash.

[Robbie]

She gave cash or a gift card to the pharmacy.

[Trixie Mattel]

Did you guys do Tooth Fairy?

[Robbie]

We did for a while, but it's very traumatic.

[Trixie Mattel]

Is it different, too?

[Robbie]

Remind me of this, the tooth Fairy, my wife being married to her and family. And then my birthday. So I'll do my birthday, then Tooth Fairy birthday. I got a combined Hanukkah birthday card.

[Trixie Mattel]

Okay.

[Robbie]

But with 20 bucks in it. But I'm like, Pamad should be 40. She goes, this is for your birthday and Hanukkah. But I'm like, but you see, Everybody else gets 20 on the birthday.

[Trixie Mattel]

Yeah, okay.

[Robbie]

Schneier's birthday, he got in April, he got $20, and then come December, he got another 20. That is 40. You're, like splitting. It's not double the gift. I'm getting half the gift.

[Trixie Mattel]

Can I tell you, I went through something really similar.

[Robbie]

It makes me sick to this day.

[Trixie Mattel]

When I won RuPaul's Drag Race, they told me that if it was a tie, that I was gonna have to split the money. And I said, that makes me split the money. And then the next year, there was a tie. They both got the full amount.

[Robbie]

Whenever they do that of like the when, when, when, when, you know, congratulations, you're, you know, you won the challenge. And they make two people tie. Split the gift. It's so cheap. It's corny, becoming. And Ru, we don't need to be doing that anymore. We love you. You've got the money. We're thrilled for you. The show is doing very well. Emmy winning times a of bunch billion. Let's just give them each.

[Trixie Mattel]

Yeah.

[Robbie]

Like, always go more generous than less.

[Trixie Mattel]

Hello. And if any said anything, more food than less.

[Robbie]

When people are coming over. If. If you have. If you can't have nobody over, don't have people over. I've said this too, Mary, but if you're inviting people over more than less, you don't want.

[Trixie Mattel]

Do you want me to get upset? I cannot take in this, our city, Los Angeles, California. If one more person, but especially gay people, invites me over to a function where there is not adequate food.

[Robbie]

Oh, no.

[Trixie Mattel]

Why are we having a. It's a Super bowl party with chips and room tempts from the store. That's not a Super bowl party. That's you leaving your fridge open and you left the TV on.

[Robbie]

It's disgusting.

[Trixie Mattel]

It's disgusting. Girl. Going to someone's house where it's like, baby one. One tray of Trader Joe's entrees that you pull out of the oven, I

[Robbie]

literally mad at me. I got to do something so classy and something I've always thought, because I thought, if I get money, I'm going to do it good.

[Trixie Mattel]

Yeah.

[Robbie]

How? You know, you met terrible rich people growing up, and you met good ones who said take, right? So I want it to be that my Netflix release party. I didn't do a whole thing in a theater with Netflix. I said I just wanted to be at home with some family and friends. My brothers, some of my brothers flew in, my sisters. And we had family. We had our good friends. I said, I'm doing one of those home bartenders, you know, I thought it must have been. I thought, I'm using the Netflix budget. I thought, it's probably $20,000 I have to pay. It's 400.

[Trixie Mattel]

I was literally just gonna say, was it about $400?

[Robbie]

It's 400. I see. It's like. So it's $4. They bring everything. They bring everything. Bar, the guy is there. He's cute. And I got catering the kitchen, and I said, everyone bring nothing. It was an unbelievable party. I had food for weeks left over, and that's how it should be for something of that. You know what I mean? I'd rather left over. And that's a lesson for my mother. We always had, even though we were poor, people go, oh, you. That's why you're smaller skin. No, she had a lot of food. She prioritized. She was peeling those potatoes. We had food.

[Trixie Mattel]

That's what kind of family I was, too. We were absolutely poor. But I don't know what my mom, her dream was to be a wife and a mom. And let me tell you, when food, she was like, we're poor, but we are having a protein, a salad, a dessert, like, every meal cut every day.

[Robbie]

That bitch. That bitch made us food. She made the food and we had good food. And that's fine. You know, she went to markets and stuff. She bought in bulk. But we had always more than less. And so it's, you know, that's something I wanted to bring to the rich.

[Trixie Mattel]

Right.

[Robbie]

Growing up. Like, once I get there, let's bring that lesson more than once. You're the ones who should have that lesson.

[Trixie Mattel]

Thank you.

[Robbie]

But Somehow you missed a memo.

[Trixie Mattel]

The food, the family.

[Robbie]

And you touched on it with Gabby. Marrying Gabby. And what's that like? He's. As a kid, you're not appreciative of your family necessarily. My brothers, I thought they were dumb as hell. I didn't like them. They were always violent. You know, they were teenagers living in the same room at one point, 13, 14, 15, 16, I don't know, all jerking off on each other. I don't know what was going on in that fucking boys room, okay? But they were violent. You would get caught in crossing. It was horrible. And I would come home from school and I would say, ma, there's something wrong with them. I'm telling you, there's something. It's. It's. It's clinical. It's something wrong. You're gonna grow. They're gonna grow up. You're gonna see that I was right. I was wrong.

[Trixie Mattel]

But she said, why don't we check your recording?

[Robbie]

She said, well, they're your brothers. They're your brothers. You can't choose your family. It is what it is. You can't choose your family. And then it was a loophole, was getting married. I can choose my family.

[Trixie Mattel]

Absolutely.

[Robbie]

One time, yeah, one time. And I got to choose Gabby to be my family. And it's like, changed my whole life.

[Trixie Mattel]

Oh, yeah.

[Robbie]

It's like the best. So that's. That was the one perspective change I had with it. And it really. Like, Gab and I are family, ancestral because we touch each other, but it's the one type of family, you know, it is. If you think too hard about it, it's not great, but it really is like.

[Trixie Mattel]

I mean, I don't know, I just feel like when you grow up, you're like, I'm gonna. I don't know about you, but growing up poor and growing up with, let's just say, family things that I would change if I could. I was, like, constantly keeping a ledger of, like, never doing that again. I will not do that in my house. I will not. You know, it's like. I know. I didn't know. You get born into whoever you're born with, but later, I'm gonna truly try to avoid poverty.

[Robbie]

No, it was the worst thing.

[Trixie Mattel]

But also, 18 years was good. That was good. That was enough.

[Robbie]

What I realized, though, is, like, I'm bringing the morality to a richer world. Because it's like, these people, you know, the richer people are, the cheaper they are. You know, there were things that, like, it makes you so sick when you go To a person's house. And, you know, they have so many rules. You can't go in the fridge. It's like what I said before. It's like, we were poor, we had nothing. If people were. My mother said, take, take, take. Like, they just don't have that same spirit.

[Trixie Mattel]

I had a pool party last summer, and Kati came over, walked by all the food that I put out, went into my fridge, took a bag of green grapes, put it in a grocery bag, and left with it. Yeah, well, she just took it. She did. She bypassed.

[Robbie]

Okay. She is. She's a schnore. That's what we would call a schnore. She's a schnore.

[Trixie Mattel]

What's that mean?

[Robbie]

She. She mooches.

[Sponsor/Announcer]

Yeah.

[Robbie]

Yeah. She's a mooch.

[Trixie Mattel]

She's mooching now.

[Robbie]

She's a man.

[Trixie Mattel]

She's getting paid today.

[Robbie]

She's a man. I'm not even getting paid. You're taking a check from a queer girl. How does that feel? How does that feel?

[Trixie Mattel]

I have a glam question, please. Your look is very signature. You really probably can never get new glasses, because now it's gonna be like, was that Robbie? I was. Different glasses.

[Robbie]

I don't know what I'm gonna. You know what? Yeah, I. I don't know.

[Trixie Mattel]

So for your specials, do you do hair and makeup?

[Robbie]

I do my own hair and makeup.

[Trixie Mattel]

You do?

[Robbie]

Yeah.

[Trixie Mattel]

You do this?

[Robbie]

Yeah.

[Trixie Mattel]

When did you start doing this?

[Robbie]

I don't know. This is one of those things again that I don't know when it happened. Yeah. Because I used to see a teacher. We had this crazy teacher, and she was at the school since before. Like, like the first teacher of the school. Like, you could see black and white photos of all the classes like this. Like when the school was, like, in a room, and she always had this, like, bouffant kind of Snooki haircut.

[Trixie Mattel]

Okay.

[Robbie]

But you see it through the years for, like, 30 years till when she's like an old lady with the same. And I always used to laugh at that and make fun of her. Like, she still looks, and I'm that lady.

[Trixie Mattel]

But I like it. It's like a cartoon. I. When I was a kid, what happened? Like, I thought the future I would have a. I remember this episode of Doug. Do you remember Doug?

[Robbie]

Doug was the best.

[Trixie Mattel]

So Doug opens his closet, and every day his little Doug. Like, absolutely.

[Robbie]

He's a little Doug.

[Trixie Mattel]

Like, he opens the closet, and every day is the same outfit.

[Robbie]

Yeah.

[Trixie Mattel]

I, like, thought, someday if I could just have a closet of the same outfit. I thought there would be so much peace in that.

[Robbie]

Right.

[Trixie Mattel]

I know what I look like. If you see me from afar, you'll be like, that's that in her white T shirt or whatever. I think your hair and your glasses is so your thing. So you go to your special taping. We do this. We put on the glasses. Do you put makeup on?

[Robbie]

Yeah.

[Trixie Mattel]

What kind of makeup do you wear?

[Robbie]

I wear whatever's on sale. I wear a blush. My sister says it's like you, but better. And. Yeah. And it just helps, like, to see. Like, before I did stand up with any cameras, I didn't have any cameras. I used to be really. You couldn't see.

[Trixie Mattel]

Right.

[Robbie]

And I'm a. I'm a hand. I'm a talker, but a hand talker and a face talk. Yeah.

[Trixie Mattel]

You get close, too.

[Robbie]

Yeah. So I have a lot of expression, you know, to actually lose some language if you can't see me properly. So we did the blush. Sometimes with a bronzer blush, it really depends. But I buy whichever gab always says I look kind of different, depending what. Like, if it runs out, then I'll have to, you know, buy Wet and Wild. I say had that color. Sometimes I have to go with a new one.

[Trixie Mattel]

I think I. Maybe I'm toxic. I think every single person who goes on stage, around camera should have a little bit of makeup on.

[Robbie]

You have to. No, no, they put it on. I mean, the count. The lights, people don't realize are. Are. It would be like your. The wall. They're like blinding lights. Yeah, yeah. You have to, you know, it's. Yeah, you have to be larger than. In normal lighting. You have enough color, you're normal. But in such bright lighting, for television or for filming, you would lose so much if you weren't visible.

[Trixie Mattel]

And people don't want to talk about that, but I will.

[Robbie]

Well, I think you're talking about it.

[Trixie Mattel]

I think we're talking about it. Do you like Los Angeles?

[Robbie]

I do.

[Trixie Mattel]

You do?

[Robbie]

Well, I. You know, look, I think New York's a dump and L. A is a shithole, but nowhere else to live.

[Trixie Mattel]

So, like, you can't even shit on New York if you live here. Because it's like, well, girl, they're both horrible. She shit her pants, but so did you.

[Robbie]

Yeah, like, they're both horrible for different.

[Trixie Mattel]

For different reasons.

[Robbie]

Yeah, reason. And now it feels like. Like they're becoming themselves again. Like, Mom Domini to me in New York is like, so the epitome of New York. He's so New York, bringing New York back to the people of the people, by the people. Like, New York is feeling very much like New York again, or what you would think. And then if Spencer Pratt, which is looking like, no, but it's looking like. But it's like, it kind of makes sense that High in the Montag would be first lady of California. Like, it actually.

[Trixie Mattel]

Just go for it.

[Robbie]

It actually. You know what I mean? It's like the world might be like, it actually is. Who you would think would be first lady of, like, you know, they talk about the plastic surgery and the fake and whatever. It's like Heidi Montago, first lady of California, like, shocks nobody, I don't think. Just like Mandani running New York. It's like, it feels New York again. New York is getting more New York, and LA is back to being, I guess, more la.

[Trixie Mattel]

That's how I feel about Trump and Melania sometimes. I'm like, we deserve it. This is what we deserve. Not. I mean, not deserve. But I'm like, yeah, America does love this shit.

[Robbie]

It's crazy. It's crazy.

[Trixie Mattel]

I. Have you seen these Spencer Pratt commercials that are like, this is where Karen Bass lives and this is where I live. And it's like an Airstream trailer. And I was like, you do not. And I love that. I lived in a trailer for a long time.

[Robbie]

I actually love trailers.

[Trixie Mattel]

You. Have you ever lived in a trailer?

[Robbie]

No, but I used to rent them a lot.

[Trixie Mattel]

Just to have just, like, your money, just to know it's there.

[Robbie]

Yeah. I like, like, little things in my own spaces. I like, like, a clickety. Look how this opens.

[Trixie Mattel]

I swear to God, I turned out of a trailer, and then people were like tiny homes.

[Robbie]

You're right. When I lived in a town.

[Trixie Mattel]

Now it's trashy.

[Robbie]

Exactly.

[Trixie Mattel]

Do you like RVs?

[Robbie]

I do.

[Trixie Mattel]

I'm obsessed with RVs.

[Robbie]

Yeah? Yeah. Don't you have a motel?

[Trixie Mattel]

I do.

[Robbie]

Where is the motel?

[Trixie Mattel]

It's in Palm Springs, California.

[Robbie]

We gotta go to this motel.

[Trixie Mattel]

You'll die.

[Robbie]

Is it finished?

[Trixie Mattel]

Oh, yeah.

[Robbie]

Because you were building this motel.

[Trixie Mattel]

Yeah, I built them. Well, I renovated a motel a few years ago, and it's still open and thriving. People love it. People show up and cry. We marry a lot of people.

[Robbie]

Oh, my God. I gotta go with Gab.

[Trixie Mattel]

I'm always trying to.

[Robbie]

Really?

[Trixie Mattel]

With Palm Springs, we do divorces. Never know.

[Robbie]

God forbid. Are you insane? I can't. Are you insane? Say I take that back. That's insane. Projection much?

[Trixie Mattel]

You know what we do?

[Robbie]

Say I take it back.

[Trixie Mattel]

I take it back. I take it back. You know what we do? Vow renewals. What do you think about vow renewals?

[Robbie]

We do it every week, right?

[Trixie Mattel]

Did you.

[Robbie]

Are you horrified? What's the other story I had on my list? No, the tooth fairy. Save you from this.

[Trixie Mattel]

Okay.

[Robbie]

Did I do the tooth fairy? My mother, yes. Even though we were poor when we moved to Canada. Born in New York, moved to Canada. My little sister was of the age. We moved to Canada of the tooth fairy. We didn't grow up with the tooth fairy because religious Jews, whatever. But she had heard about it in school. So we were like, mom, we should really do the tooth fairy for her. Like, why not?

[Trixie Mattel]

It's hard to keep a cap on that because everyone's teeth are falling out and everyone's waking up with money. How is your kid going to not find out about the tooth fairy?

[Robbie]

We slept in a room. I slept here. My sisters were on a bunk bed here. One on top, one on the bottom. Small room. And then at some point in the night, we heard a crash. The lights go on. My mother is on the fucking floor. Tripped on a Lego, God knows what, okay? We're like, ma. She's like, it's me, It's Ma. I'm the tooth fairy. It's me. She blows it in two seconds. My little sister starts crying. Like, what? I'm like, ma, you're making her cry. You're making her cry. She's not the. Ah, it's me. It is. It's my money. It's Ma's money. She gives her the 50 cents. She's like, sitting there crying with the 50 cents. Like, so that my mother attempted.

[Trixie Mattel]

But why did she give it up so easy? She could have just said, I fell.

[Robbie]

She was so sick of it. You have to imagine what this lady went through making 10 lunches, nine loads of laundry. She just cooked stew for us. And finally she's like, you know what? I'll try and do this tooth fairy thing. I'll find 50 cents, put them in a little bag. She has them in a little, like, bag. And. And I'll. And I'll just stick it under the pillow.

[Trixie Mattel]

But you know what?

[Robbie]

Before she went to bed, it was her last. And then she can't see because it's dark in the room. We've been sleeping. It's probably 9 o'. Clock. We're kids, you know? And she smashes, like, she really, like, we. We woke up to her, like, face planted, right? We're like, mom. My little sisters are horrified I'm like, the big girl in the room. I'm, like 12. I'm like, mom, calm down, you know? And she's like, it's me. It's Ma. I said, I'm the tooth Fairy. She was just holding up this, like, 50 cents in the baggie. She's like, it's me. It's Ma. I'm the tooth Fairy. It's my money. There is no tooth, Terry.

[Trixie Mattel]

You guys caught the ghost in, like, a Scooby Doo movie.

[Robbie]

Yeah. Like, she could have kept it.

[Trixie Mattel]

Like, she could have just said, I

[Robbie]

tried, but she just exploded.

[Trixie Mattel]

You know what I said? Oh, I found 50 cents. When I tried.

[Robbie]

She's not. She just was at her. It just. She's tired, collapsed. The whole. It was hanging on by a thread, right? And then she trips and the whole thing.

[Trixie Mattel]

You know, if I had 10 kids. I'm not telling them about the tooth fairy either.

[Robbie]

No.

[Trixie Mattel]

Because how many teeth are they losing? That's 50 cents a pop for 10 kids.

[Robbie]

No wonder my mother. I mean, we had bad. You know, that's a. That was another sign of. Of poverty now, too. But, like, we had kind of bad teeth because my mom would put, like, apple juice in a bottle.

[Trixie Mattel]

Girl. My sisters, my mom, when she was feeling like a good mom, she would water the apple juice down for the kids in the bottle.

[Robbie]

Like, we wanted apple juice. Like, my mother was like, you could have, but it's like, you're not supposed

[Trixie Mattel]

to drink juice and go to sleep.

[Robbie]

Drink juice. It is bad, but you know what I mean?

[Trixie Mattel]

So don't drink your juice, Shelby.

[Robbie]

I'm still dealing with teeth. You know, teeth is one of those things when you want to grow, when you. When you. You try and get money, I'm like, but is it too late to fix my teeth? It's awkward to fix it now.

[Trixie Mattel]

It's definitely awkward. When I turned 25 and I could afford a dentist at all. When I first moved to la. Yeah, I went to a dentist with just, like, my drag queen cash and

[Robbie]

was like, so what did you do? Because I don't want braces now. I always was insecure. I think my. My teeth are fine.

[Trixie Mattel]

But did you have braces?

[Robbie]

No, I didn't have braces, but I had so many different issues. They're not, but they. But they're. They're fine.

[Trixie Mattel]

It's a facade.

[Robbie]

I was a lot more when my teeth were bigger on my face. When I was smaller, my teeth were the same size. Oh, you know what I mean? When you're, like, a Teenager.

[Trixie Mattel]

Yeah.

[Robbie]

But now my teeth are like more blended into my face. But as a kid it was. I was really insecure because it was. I grew up in an era too where you were hearing a lot about braces, that people were getting them willy nilly whether they needed them or not. Kids just got to have braces.

[Trixie Mattel]

Right.

[Robbie]

And so I thought it was a status symbol to have braces.

[Trixie Mattel]

It kind of is. They're not inexpensive.

[Robbie]

No. So I always thought it was kind of a status symbol when you saw somebody on the bus with braces.

[Trixie Mattel]

It's also a status symbol to be an adult with straight teeth because you got to have braces.

[Robbie]

No, exactly. So you fixed your. You had bad. Like what happened to your teeth?

[Trixie Mattel]

Mine were, I mean, I thought mine were okay, but then you go to the dentist and. Of course I didn't go to the dentist through college. I didn't have fucking money.

[Robbie]

No, no, no.

[Trixie Mattel]

I was cross dressing, you know, I didn't have fucking money to go with my fucking teeth. But I will tell you this. Every tooth problem is cheaper to prevent than it is to fix. If I could just tell everyone here listening today, obviously you should just go see Robbie and tune into her special. But if you could floss today, it'll save you a toothpull tomorrow.

[Robbie]

That said, I'm also on tour. Fifteen new shows added. I think we're already, We've been on sale for two days and we already, you know, by the grace of God and all of you. So, you know, these are the only. By the way, I don't want to hear, oh, you're going there, but you're not coming here. Those are the 15 shows that I can do and that's a lot of shows for me. So those are the ones. So get the tickets while you can and want and those are the shows. I can't go everywhere all at once. Everywhere. And I'm not running myself ragged. I like a leisurely Tour. I did eight cities on this one and we're going to do 15 and that's it. You're not going to see me every night somewhere else.

[Trixie Mattel]

That's amazing.

[Robbie]

You're not going to see me.

[Trixie Mattel]

When I was younger I would do like hundred city tours and now.

[Robbie]

No, no, no, no. I am not running Ragged on 100 City Tour. I'm happily married. I like to see my wife. I act in things, I write. I have other things to do. Yeah, I have a very 360 life and I have to, you know, I like to toggle between different things. It's amazing that you did drag coming from where you were coming because it does remind me of, like, my. Like, I always think that style comes from the poor. Style and fashion are very different because style is like you. Style is like, you don't maybe have the things, but it's like, how do you swag out? And you have to learn to do that with a lot less. Just like you were saying, the mobile homes become trendy. You have these tiny houses when you're, you know, pissing in a pot. The same thing with the vintage. You know, we grew up clothes shopping at the Goodwill or Salvation army and Village develop Village. And it's like, it was so embarrassing as a kid.

[Trixie Mattel]

It was not ever cool. It was to buy a thrifted item when I was a. Even a teenager.

[Robbie]

No, it was horrible. It was like, you smell.

[Trixie Mattel]

Even if you had a hand me down that your mom bought new.

[Robbie]

Yeah.

[Trixie Mattel]

You were embarrassed of it. And now I really believe it's like. Like, while I do homeschooling because I'm reselling clothes online, I make a fortune reselling clothes online. That's what Goodwill does.

[Robbie]

That's literally Goodwill. So it was so embarrassing, every aspect. And now it's, of course, embraced and whatever. We had to be there first. Like, my sister would go to high school in a fur. Let me show you her high school picture. Because she almost wasn't able to get. They were like, no, you can't wear lipstick. She was poor.

[Trixie Mattel]

She was 4 or 5.

[Robbie]

And she's like, I'm not taking the picture.

[Trixie Mattel]

How old is she?

[Robbie]

My sister now? She's. No.

[Trixie Mattel]

In the lipstick photo.

[Robbie]

No, she's like 16.

[Trixie Mattel]

Oh, I. I mean, I think that's okay.

[Robbie]

No, but kindergarten with red lipstick on. I know, but she was real. You know, it was like, religious and lipstick. No, it's insane. It's insane.

[Trixie Mattel]

You can be religious and wear lipstick. In fact, the more religious you are, in my experience, that sometimes the more makeup you see.

[Robbie]

I. I don't. For whatever reason, they wouldn't. But this is her. She's like, I won't take the picture. Like, fine, get the picture.

[Trixie Mattel]

Let me see.

[Robbie]

Oh, is that style?

[Trixie Mattel]

She's very pretty. You better work.

[Robbie]

This is so she doesn't give a.

[Trixie Mattel]

And it gives that.

[Robbie]

You gotta give it to the camera. Let's get a.

[Trixie Mattel]

Can you guys believe. Has anyone so.

[Robbie]

And you know what? She did need that lip. It's actually great.

[Trixie Mattel]

She's giving like, Gen Z has no job because of mental health.

[Robbie]

Yeah. She just was like, I Don't even want to be in this fucking. In this photo.

[Trixie Mattel]

She does.

[Robbie]

She can't be me.

[Trixie Mattel]

And she does copy for a skincare company remotely.

[Robbie]

Yeah, she was smoking cigs. And you know, I remember she got in trouble because they said, oh, she vandalized the building. My mother was crying. My mother was like on the. On the floor crying that we're going to have to pay in the police. And she vandalized the whole school and she tagged her name and it was a small Jewish religious school and. And my mother was like, well, how do you know it's her? How do you know she did it? And my mother takes the bus to the school with her. She's dragging her and she goes, you know, and they get to the building of the school and she says, chaya. Huge.

[Trixie Mattel]

What does that mean?

[Robbie]

Which is her name? Oh, so it's like a very unique name. And it literally just says Chaya.

[Trixie Mattel]

It's the other Chaya.

[Robbie]

She was. What? She was. Yeah, she was one of these people where it's like style and personality and just herself was going to push through all of it. It's like you have nothing else but you. You're at the Goodwill, but you want to look swagged out. She picked up the fur for $12 and she wore that fur to school. She bought a cigarette long thing and that's how she smoked her ciggies. 14 years old. She just.

[Trixie Mattel]

If I had a child smoking at 14, do you know that I would go. If I ever had a kid, it would have to be well behaved because I would not know how to hand. I was not a rule breaker. I was not a smoker. If I had a kid who was like, I was no.

[Robbie]

My mother had no.

[Trixie Mattel]

I would go nuclear. I'm like, do you want to live in a crate in a field? I would be. I don't know what I would do.

[Robbie]

She's so successful now, my sister. You don't have to worry.

[Trixie Mattel]

Good. You guys go see Robbie.

[Robbie]

You don't have to worry.

[Trixie Mattel]

You're so wonderful.

[Robbie]

I love you.

[Trixie Mattel]

I love.

[Robbie]

Thank you. I really love you. And you know what? I really appreciate your emotional.

[Trixie Mattel]

I'm invested in you coddling.

[Robbie]

You're just emotional support at the Emmys and in one of my darkest moments. And I appreciate you having me on. I'm Robbie off on Instagram. I'll see you on tour and check out the special. Thank you so much.
