This episode is brought to you by Yeti. Summer for me is all about having a good time. Whether it's going out on a boat or adventuring with hikes. I love getting out and doing things. But none of those activities are complete without a great cooler, something that's super tough and super lightweight. And YETI coolers are seriously next level. I got one of their Hopper M12 backpack coolers and this thing holds about 20 cans and keeps your hands free. They also have a leak proof flip 18 cooler. Keeps everything super organized, easy to find. So whatever random adventure you end up on, find your cooler and gear up for summer with YETI soft coolers. Hi friends. Just checking in before we start today's episode. Heavy times right now in the world. And I think regardless of what side of the aisle you stand on, it's pretty clear that what's going on with ICE and an assassination of a politician in Minnesota, things are not okay. So now more than ever, it's time we talk about it. We take a stand. And I just want to make sure everyone has the resources they need. So if you're worried about ice, please make sure you know your rights and other links will be found in the description. But look after yourself. Practice some good self care, some social media detoxing, and hopefully this episode is a good distraction for us all. So let's dive in. Here we go. Welcome back to another episode of Too Hot Takes My Friends. I'm your host, Morgan, and today we.
Bob the Drag Queen
Got Bob the Drag Queen.
Morgan
We got Bob. Are you fucking kidding me? Look at this. Beautiful.
Bob the Drag Queen
I pull off the wig and it's actually Monet.
Morgan
I'm obsessed with you.
Bob the Drag Queen
Like you ever seen. How old are you?
Morgan
31.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, so you probably didn't watch Mission Impossible.
Morgan
I've seen Mission Impossible, but not like.
Bob the Drag Queen
When it came out. You were too young.
Morgan
What year was it?
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't know. Can't someone Google? We got a Googler 96.
Morgan
Oh yeah, I was born in four.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, so you were not two years old watching Miss Impossible? No, when it came out, it was massive. The movie was huge.
Morgan
The mask. Yeah, yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Because you pull your, your face off.
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
And then there's another face underneath. And it was everyone. It was like, it was like such a bit in, in like, in like movies and media and sketches, like. I see. And do you remember the music for Mission Impossible?
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
It's iconic. Do you want to hum it with me?
Morgan
I'll let you do it. Justice Zen Linda. So good. We actually might get a copyright strike for that.
Bob the Drag Queen
It was so good.
Morgan
So good.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. When I was in elementary school in Mississippi, this one girl did a tap routine to it.
Morgan
Oh.
Bob the Drag Queen
And when I tell you she ate.
Morgan
I'm sure she did.
Bob the Drag Queen
She ate. She came out in all black. Obviously.
Morgan
Mission Impossible, you have to.
Bob the Drag Queen
With a ski mask. And she lifted that mask and she tapped like her life depended on it.
Morgan
As any good tapper does. I remember going to Walmart when I was young and they sold tap shoes there for a little bit. Ate shit in the aisle. Me. And tapping the shoes, I tried like tapping around the store in them and they're slippery little things.
Bob the Drag Queen
Was this with no training, though?
Morgan
No training.
Bob the Drag Queen
There's your problem. Have you revisited tapping since then?
Morgan
I have not turned into a horse girl, which is.
Bob the Drag Queen
You don't look like a horse. You don't look like a horse. Yeah, I'm half horse, half girl.
Morgan
Uh huh.
Bob the Drag Queen
That's why you wear the blanket.
Morgan
I'm ready to get into this with you today.
Bob the Drag Queen
Let's do it.
Morgan
Okay. Bob. Bob, Season eight, winner of Drag Race. Uh huh. You are a podcaster. Three at one time.
Bob the Drag Queen
True.
Morgan
A writer. I got to tell you, I'm going to be honest. Okay, be honest again. I'm going to be honest. I started your book. This is my spot that I'm at. I'm like a third quarter of the way in. I wanted to cancel on you today so I could keep reading your book.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh my God, that's so sweet.
Morgan
I love it. No, it's so good. I didn't want to put it down.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, thank you.
Morgan
It's so good. You're hitting like such a insane historical figure, but from such a fun lens. It's just your writing, your style. I love it. I'm like, I need you to write 10 more books. This needs to become a musical.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm working on it, actually.
Morgan
It needs to be a musical. A movie. I know. Because you started it as a musical. Intended to be a musical.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah.
Morgan
Four years and here we go.
Bob the Drag Queen
I know. It took me. Yeah. Four years for actually from the time I started. Started the. Got the book deal to the time I recorded the last words of the.
Morgan
Your AudioBook.AudioBook was five years. Wow. Yeah, it is definitely a labor of love. It comes across. You guys, you need to check out the book audio version if you can't read like Lea Michele.
Bob the Drag Queen
And she proved she could read recently.
Morgan
I know. I saw.
Bob the Drag Queen
Were you buying it?
Morgan
You know, I. I could see her still being a little.
Bob the Drag Queen
She should have been like, google anything and I'll read it.
Morgan
Yeah. Like, it was a prepared card because.
Bob the Drag Queen
She can obviously learn lines.
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
She's been in movies and.
Morgan
Glee.
Bob the Drag Queen
Movie.
Morgan
No. Glee. Glee. For how many seasons?
Bob the Drag Queen
Not a movie, though.
Morgan
No.
Bob the Drag Queen
Has Lee Michelle ever done a movie? Interesting question.
Morgan
I don't know. So funny enough, a lot of animated movies. Oh, has she animated, though? You know, you can go line by line.
Bob the Drag Queen
This is true.
Morgan
But you're in a. In a room.
Bob the Drag Queen
But. But I feel like I've done a few voiceover gigs and you're normally reading as you do it.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
Normally.
Morgan
You would know.
Bob the Drag Queen
I would know. I've done a few.
Morgan
You would know.
Bob the Drag Queen
I haven't done a ton. I'm not like, you know, I'm not like, who's the guy? Like, what's the guy who does Family Guy?
Morgan
Oh, yeah. Seth McFarland. Seth McFarland.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm like, I don't have as many credits as him, but he's good. I've probably done more than I should have been doing. More than I'm actually, like, you know, good enough for. To be honest.
Morgan
No. Oh, stop.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, I don't do any voices. Every voice I try to do, I think I'm gonna do a great job, but ends up sounding just like me.
Morgan
Do your. Do your best voice like your.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, my. My number one.
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
It's an impersonation.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
And you're going to try to. I'm going to read a chunk of my book as this person, so I'm not saying something they would say. And you have to tell me what. What. What it is.
Morgan
Okay. Don't lose my spot.
Bob the Drag Queen
In an age of miracles, where our greatest heroes from history have magically and unexpectedly returned to shake us out of our confusion and complacency. Harry Tubman is back.
Morgan
Okay, Obama.
Bob the Drag Queen
She has a lot to. Obama.
Morgan
Okay, Obama.
Bob the Drag Queen
See, that was good.
Morgan
Yeah, you're good.
Bob the Drag Queen
That's my one good one, though. I have some bad ones, too.
Morgan
I doubt it. I doubt it.
Bob the Drag Queen
You're sweet, Morgan.
Morgan
Okay, our theme today, you know, a little thing about history.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm no historian. To be clear.
Morgan
You're no historian. But hey, I've learned a lot about Harriet Tubman thanks to you.
Bob the Drag Queen
Thank you.
Morgan
Like the fact she had a gun but never actually shot anyone.
Bob the Drag Queen
She carried the Blicket.
Morgan
Never lost anyone.
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, if she did shoot anyone, it was probably during the Combahee river.
Morgan
Raids, which would have been.
Bob the Drag Queen
But on her trip, she famously never shot anyone.
Morgan
No, I never lost anyone either.
Bob the Drag Queen
Never lost a passenger.
Morgan
I know. I learned a lot from you. So you know a thing about history and maybe. Maybe some stories. That there's more history than meets the eye.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay, now, when do I use this?
Morgan
When you see fit. Here.
Bob the Drag Queen
I want to at some point.
Morgan
Oh, I'll give you one. I'll tee you up. Okay, you ready?
Bob the Drag Queen
And does that mean. Does that mean we don't talk about the thing, or does that mean we just acknowledge that it's a red flag and then we keep talking about it?
Morgan
Oh, you can talk about anything.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay.
Morgan
Especially the thing.
Bob the Drag Queen
Can they hear this?
Morgan
Some flag. Asmr.
Bob the Drag Queen
Exactly.
Morgan
I like it. Okay, let's dive in.
Bob the Drag Queen
Let's dive in.
Morgan

Okay, this first one coming from, Am I the asshole subreddit that people go to to tell you not to run?
Bob the Drag Queen
The asshole. Okay, I exist on Reddit, okay? And I gotta be honest, rodeo, I'm in some really. I'm in some really toxic.
Morgan
Ooh, what are you on?
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm not proud of myself.
Morgan
Oh, you.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm in fight porn.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
Do you know fight porn?
Morgan
No. I'm curious.
Bob the Drag Queen
Fight porn is just fight videos of people fighting.
Morgan
Oh, my God. What?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, just people fighting. It's just people fighting. But then there's a subcategory in there called Rocked Hard, and Rocked Hard is when someone probably suffered a little bit of brain damage.
Morgan
Okay, you are showing me a side of Reddit I've never seen.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm also on Nature is Metal.
Morgan
What's this?
Bob the Drag Queen
Nature is Metal is like. It's like a lion who got into a fight and it's just a photo of them and all you see is like they don't have a jaw because they lost. They maybe won the fight, but they lost their jaw, not Simba. But then they'll end up passing away because they can't eat anymore. Yeah.
Morgan
Jesus Christ.
Bob the Drag Queen
The other one that I'm in, that's pretty bad is. This was pretty bad.
Morgan
Oh no.
Bob the Drag Queen
This one might be the worst one.
Morgan
Oh my God.
Bob the Drag Queen
It's called Hold My Feeding Tube. Hold My Feeding tube is when something really bad has happened to you and you will probably have lifelong injuries from it.
Morgan
This is so niche. There's only two 3K members and hold My Feeding Tube.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh my God. Yeah, it'll be like someone who like.
Morgan
Holy shit.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, there it is. Yeah, that's a typical Hold My Feeding Tube really.
Morgan
Oh my God.
Bob the Drag Queen
Describe what you're seeing to the people.
Morgan
It looks like a tall ass electrical power pole, like the tallest one you can find. And this person decides to base jump off of it with a tiny parachute and the parachute does not open.
Bob the Drag Queen
Anyway, that's where I live on Reddit. And of course you're Paul's Drag racing Traders.
Morgan
I thought I was demented.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, I'm twisted, you know, And I'm not proud of myself, but I can't help it. I'm just on those Reddits all the time, like non stop.
Morgan
I was worried about going too hard on you today. You are so fucked. You're going to fit right in.
Bob the Drag Queen
We're not going to need this.
Morgan
You're wearing it.
Bob the Drag Queen
I am the red flag.
Morgan
Okay, this first one, am I the asshole for telling my girlfriend that she's a bad writer and should be ashamed for charging people for her books?
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay, before you even read it, I just want to say it started off not bad, then it just went. It went far. Like, ashamed is crazy. Let's. Let's hear it though.
Morgan
I, male, 35, am a very honest person. My girlfriend Sam, female, 30, and I have been together for eight months. Sam told me she's a writer, but she's never showed me any of her work. She's not rich by any means drag her, but she does make enough to live rather comfortably. I've asked multiple times and she's eventually agreed to show me one of her books. I was excited, but soon my excitement turned to disappointment. It was awful. Some trashy romance novel with shitty writing.
Bob the Drag Queen
Jesus.
Morgan
Apparently she's published 20 of similar ones and they sell well. I Was shocked. I told her that I'm sorry, but her writing was bad. She said it's not bad, just average. That she knows she's not the best writer, but it's the plot that matters and she has an editor. I said it's still bad and she should be ashamed that she charges people for that. She got all mad and called me a prick and told me she wanted to be left alone. I don't know what I've done wrong and she knows I'm an honest person. My sister thinks I was an asshole, but I'm confused. My girlfriend should know the truth and find a career path that will work for her and one that she'll be good at. Am I the asshole?
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, yes. The answer is yes, this person is. This man is an asshole.
Morgan
Oh, my God.
Bob the Drag Queen
Because it seems like saying you don't think the writing is good, that's truthful.
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Saying you should be ashamed that you are selling this and that people are actually buying it is where you're just going too far. Like, there's no. What it sounds like is this is not your cup of tea.
Morgan
Exactly.
Bob the Drag Queen
And baby, it's not a cup of tea, don't drink it. But I don't think you need to be going around telling everyone that you think that their writing is so bad they should be ashamed of themselves. Now I will say this. Are you. What are his credentials?
Morgan
Are you an editor?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. Are you. Are you. Are you. Are you a literary. Do you publish? Are you a publisher? Are you a literary critic? Are you. Has anyone ever paid you to critique things? Because it sounds like your girlfriend is a published author who pays her bills and has over 20 books and is like literally living her dream as a writer and paying her bills through that. And you're just some guy who doesn't know anything about writing and is critiquing someone who's actually successful in their career.
Morgan
Exactly. 20 books, that's no easy feat. I can't imagine.
Bob the Drag Queen
Do you think he's the asshole?
Morgan
Oh, 100% I think he's the asshole.
Bob the Drag Queen
But it's okay to. If she says, what do you think? Then I would probably. Okay, this is me. You ready? You're my girlfriend. You're a 30 year old female. I'm a 35 year old male.
Morgan
Let's go.
Bob the Drag Queen
Ready? You ready? Oh, babe, you're. Thank you for letting me finish your book.
Morgan
Yeah. I'm glad you read it.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, I did. I read it. Yeah, I read the whole thing.
Morgan
What'd you think?
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, the book. I just Read?
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, you know, I don't think it's a book I would ever buy.
Morgan
I'm not into, like, fairy porn doesn't do it for you?
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, no, no, no, no.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
I do like fairy porn.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
I think it's maybe the way you. Maybe it's the point of view that you wrote it from. One of my favorite books, actually. Fairy Twinks Get Pounded. It's actually one of my all time favorite books and it's really good, actually. Can I recommend it? Do you mind reading it?
Morgan
I'll take some notes. Yeah, yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
And I think some notes. If you were trying to reach an audience like me, then I would say maybe take some notes from this. From this author who. Who writes the kind of stuff that I like to write. I like to read.
Morgan
I appreciate you reading it.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. And do you do. Are you interested in doing any audiobooks for it?
Morgan
I. Yeah, I'd be interested because you.
Bob the Drag Queen
Do have a beautiful voice.
Morgan
Thank you.
Bob the Drag Queen
And I think your voice is quite sensual. And I think that that would give a even bigger audience to it.
Morgan
That would really sell.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah.
Morgan
I am trying to get into reading audiobooks.
Bob the Drag Queen
See, that's a much nicer way to say it. Right.
Morgan
Tact. Have a little tact.
Bob the Drag Queen
Not that I'm known for tact. No. But I can recognize when someone else doesn't have it too.
Morgan
Yeah, yeah. No, he's definitely off his fucking rocker. He actually was so mystified that his girlfriend is a published author, he goes into another subreddit. Okay. He goes to R slash Writing and goes and posts. My girlfriend claims she published 20 books. How possible is that? This man does not believe.
Bob the Drag Queen
Has he listened to. Has he named her no names so her fans aren't coming in being like, don't you. Don't you dare come for, you know, J.R.R. tolkien?
Morgan
Nope. No name.
Bob the Drag Queen
Do you have any authors that you love? Besides Bobby Dracula?
Morgan
Yeah, besides you. Honestly, I have been out of the reading game for a while, which is why I was really excited to read your book.
Bob the Drag Queen
I got you back in the game.
Morgan
Because I. I actually was like, really? I, like. That's why I was, like, about to cancel on you. Cause I'm like, okay, wait, I can't put this book down. Like, I do love reading. I kind of went through, like a reading burnout phase, so I haven't really read anything in a while. I, like, read the new Hunger Game book recently.
Bob the Drag Queen
I heard it was good.
Morgan
It was pretty good. Being stuck with a very tight plot line and the way she worked around it. And like, added so much detail. It was really good. But your book, I mean, you're approaching like, for me, as a white woman, like, it's. It's a topic that like, could feel very out of my depth, but you make it so comfortable to like dive in and you approach it from such an interesting creative lens. I really was impressed with the whole concept of your book and how like this return and it's. It's really magical.
Bob the Drag Queen
Much better writer than this guy's shitty girlfriend.
Morgan
Exactly. I mean, 20 and I've only got one. Hey, hey. It's just the beginning. Just the beginning.
Bob the Drag Queen
You're garbage. I'm kidding.
Morgan
You know, you can have a whole spin off on this, on this concept.
Bob the Drag Queen
You never know. You never know.
Morgan
I think you could.
Bob the Drag Queen
So. So what, what are, what are people's responses to, you know, the writing?
Morgan
Subreddit overall Vote Asshole. Top comment on this one. Another brutally honest person who is just an asshole.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, for sure.
Morgan
She's living comfortably off of just writing. And Opie has the nerve to tell her, find something that will work for her. Yeah, that's insane, because a 35 year old man doesn't enjoy a trashy romance novel.
Bob the Drag Queen
Maybe, maybe he was like, when I say, makes a living, she's fully an accountant. He's like, oh, I didn't say from the writing. She's fully. She's fully a cpa. No. Yeah, this guy, this guy is an asshole. And honestly, I think that that is a red flag and she should break up with him because he's. Honestly, he sounds jealous and I have a sneaking suspicion that he's not working in his dream career.
Morgan
No, I don't understand. Too, like, this guy is clearly a hater. Why are you gonna date your haters?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, sounds pretty. Yeah, I do a podcast with my hater and I don't recommend it. Monet Exchange is my. Is my inner saboteur. Oh, 100%.
Morgan
Does that get a little dicey for you sometimes?
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, the podcast called Sibling Rivalry, all we do is argue.
Morgan
Oh.
Bob the Drag Queen
So yeah, all we do is scream each other. But she's my best friend, though. She's actually not a hater. She's actually. She loves me a lot, but she is kind of low key. A hater, though.
Morgan
I mean, a hater or just being brutally honest. There is a difference.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, she's a hater.
Morgan
This guy. Hater.
Bob the Drag Queen
Monet's a hater.
Morgan
Monet.
Bob the Drag Queen
She's a hater for sure.
Morgan
Sibling. You talk about sibling, though. This next one's got a sibling in It.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay, let's listen.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
You have any siblings?
Morgan
I've got three siblings.
Bob the Drag Queen
And let me guess, you're not the oldest or the youngest. Your second oldest.
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
You give off the vibe.
Morgan
Boy. Oldest. Me, younger brother, younger sister, two and two. Crazy dynamic, though. Me and my brothers have the same mom, my little sister, we have the same dad. And then, like, both my brothers have other siblings through. We have a really crazy web.
Bob the Drag Queen
I am both the oldest child and the youngest child. I'm my mother's youngest. I'm my father's oldest.
Morgan
Ooh.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. I'm two years younger than my older brother, and I'm 21 years older than my youngest brother.
Morgan
That's an interesting little dynamic.
Bob the Drag Queen
Very interesting.
Morgan
21 year age gap. Did you hate your little brother?
Bob the Drag Queen
I didn't meet him till he was 14, actually.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
And I love him. Oh, see, he is. I love that I get to be an older brother. It is. So I thought I'd be the baby forever.
Morgan
That's so good.
Bob the Drag Queen
Now I turned 21, I got to be an older brother. It's so exciting.
Morgan
Okay. That's amazing.
Bob the Drag Queen
He just took me to the red carpet of I got an award at bet. And we look so cute. We look so adorable.
Morgan
Wait, okay. I think I saw the video. He's got, like. He had braids, little locks. Yeah, yeah. Okay. I was like, he's a cutie.
Bob the Drag Queen
That's my little brother.
Morgan
He's really cute.
Bob the Drag Queen
He's 18, so calm down.
Morgan
He does not look 18.
Bob the Drag Queen
He's 18, so don't. Don't. I don't call the sound the sirens.
Morgan
Hey, I'm engaging.
Bob the Drag Queen
Here come the sirens.
Morgan
I just seem to look cutie.
Bob the Drag Queen
This is Hollywood. Everyone's open here.
Morgan
No, my older brother, we have an eight year age gap. He hated my guts. Like, hated my guts until I was like, in college.
Bob the Drag Queen
You're engaged? When I married.
Morgan
Yeah. Wedding, September.
Bob the Drag Queen
That is a rock. You get this to comment a lot.
Morgan
Well, we're in la, so I feel like for here it's people like, that's it. I have gotten that before.
Bob the Drag Queen
What does he do?
Morgan
He's in music. He actually.
Bob the Drag Queen
That's so vague. He could be doing. He could be working the front desk at Sony. Or he could be like, you could be fully dating Drake.
Morgan
No, Drake. No. Kendrick. He's a artist, producer, kind of dabbles in everything. He actually introduced me to your purse first music video.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay.
Morgan
He, like, started saying it on an episode.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, he's gay. Okay, okay. Oh, he's gay. Okay.
Morgan
No, but he's just like. He's like this was such a. A cultural moment. So he introduced me to purse first and he actually, I asked him. I was like, wait, have you worked with Bob? Because he did Hulu's Hulu extravagance with Monet X Change. He did all the music for that.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, I was not in that though.
Morgan
Did your hair. Did your hater block your blessing?
Bob the Drag Queen
I didn't get invited. No, I was. I was doing the Madonna tour. I was busy that day.
Morgan
Okay, Hulu.
Bob the Drag Queen
But I'm available this year, so please, please go.
Morgan
Go Bob. Okay, this next one coming from R. Overreacting. Am I overreacting? Three days old. It is titled am I overreacting for refusing to attend my sister's rebirth party.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay, off the rip. I'm just gonna say. No, off rip. I'm gonna say your sister's asking a lot, but go ahead.
Morgan
So my sister has always been into weird stuff. Crystals, astrology, raw milk. But last year she took some kind of hallucinogenic frog venom at burning man, had a full breakdown and came back calling herself Obsidian Womb Fox. This is not a joke. She legally changed it from Lindsay to her email signature. Even says quote, born again now with more ancestral knowing. Anyways, she recently sent out wax sealed invitations for her rebirth party.
Bob the Drag Queen
That's so camp. Honestly. Obsidian, you ate that one. Wax sealed.
Morgan
Obsidian, you're eating an event she's hosting in our parents backyard to celebrate the one year anniversary of her ego death.
Bob the Drag Queen
I will say this, it sounds like Obsidian lives in her parents home.
Morgan
The invite was wild. It asked guests to dress in uterine tones, said the party would begin at sunrise or when the hawk signals and promised, quote, a journey through the sacred canal of transformation. I didn't know what any of that meant, but I figured, hey, it's just one morning. Maybe there's a mimosa or something. Then my cousin sent me the full itinerary. She got through a private group chat. I was left out because I made a placenta joke once and I got the boot.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay, wait, this person sounds kind of funny.
Morgan
Apparently the main event involves my sister being reborn from a paper mache uterus while a fully grown man named Curtis, who she found on Craigslist, pretends to be her womb. Like she's literally crawling out of him while he moans and plays a Tibetan singing bowl. The finale includes her cutting a red ribbon umbilical cord, screaming I am rewoven. And then doing a primal dance in a giant inflatable kiddie pool full of coconut oil. I told her I wasn't going. I was respectful about it. Just said, quote, hey, I love you, but I'm not comfortable watching you get fake birthed by a guy in a spandex bodysuit. She flipped out.
Bob the Drag Queen
It doesn't sound very reborn.

Said I was refusing to support her second becoming, that I still see her as a linear being, and that I'm chained to the masculine lie of the Gregorian calendar. Now my mom is upset, my aunt says I'm being closed minded, and my uncle is going, but only because there's going to be a taco truck and apparently you get free lapis lazuli bracelet with every birthing. So, Reddit, am I overreacting because I'm not wanting to attend my adult sister's backyard rebirth where a Craigslist guy acts as her womb?
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay, Ms. Wolfox is an icon. It's gonna say that up close. I do think I'm gonna clock this one. I think this might be a lie. And this is why I. It would be. Obsidian seems like someone who is quite theatrical and it seems weird that she would give out every single detail of what's going to happen. Like literally down to the kiddie pool and the coconut oil. Like, why would that be in the invite? Like, that sounds like he made this. Or she does have the person's gender, no mention. Well, it sounds like this person made this up about their sibling, if they.
Morgan
Even exist to shit on them.
Bob the Drag Queen
And also the writing is quite clever and this person's funny.
Morgan
You know, there are some poets on.
Bob the Drag Queen
Reddit, so I believe it's made up, but let's just go off the notion that it's not made up, it's real.
Morgan
And I'm not missing it for the fudgeing world.
Bob the Drag Queen
I would absolutely go do it for the plot. Yeah, I would go if you don't want to go. I mean, who cares? Like, I don't go to stuff. I don't want to go to do.
Morgan
It for the plot.
Bob the Drag Queen
I will say this. I do love saying no to things.
Morgan
Do you?
Bob the Drag Queen
There's so much power in saying I say no to things I want to do because I love saying no more than I love doing things sometimes.
Morgan
I mean, I love staying home and just.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, I want people to know that I will say no.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
Like, I want people to know that.
Morgan
Just you have that power.
Bob the Drag Queen
Still does not mean I will do it.
Morgan
Oh, well, God, I feel like I.
Bob the Drag Queen
Don'T say no to things that I absolutely want to do because I really want to maintain that that exclusivity Exactly. But that being said, I would go to this.
Morgan
Oh, yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Are they free? Are the tacos at the truck free? Yeah, they're free tacos.
Morgan
Free tacos.
Bob the Drag Queen
You also, I guarantee you the other people in your family find this ridiculous. You could also kiki and cut up with your aunt about Obsidian's rebirthing.
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
I do think you should be calling her Obsidian because that's her name now.
Morgan
Obsidian's pretty. It's not bad.
Bob the Drag Queen
People can change their names. You gotta hear the words. Maybe you love Lindsay the name Lindsay Moore, but her name is Obsidian now. I prefer get with the program also.
Morgan
They get a bracelet, you get a.
Bob the Drag Queen
Free bracelet, you get free tacos, you get a show. It sounds great. I will say this, Obsidian does sound a little bit unbearable.
Morgan
Yeah. Maybe a little too much frog venom.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yes. Was saying stuff like, you're just too connected to Gregorian calendar. Yeah, bitch. That's when I'm supposed to show up at things. So when I. When I ask people what date is a show and they say June 3rd, I'm just gonna go on June 3rd. Yeah, I know it's the Gregorian calendar, but I want. I don't want to use whatever calendar you using and then you end up missing shit. Because you know how to do it.
Morgan
I know.
Bob the Drag Queen
So Obsidian does seem a little bit insufferable. But if this were my sister and I was free, I would go.
Morgan
I would too. I would go just to see it all. I mean, where else are you going to get this free entertainment?
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, in Silver Lake, they do. Oh, my God. There's got to be a rebirthing party in Silver Lake every couple of weeks. This sounds like.
Morgan
Can you have one? I feel like you would do it, right?
Bob the Drag Queen
If I had a rebirthing party. My God, I feel like it would be a show. Yeah, I feel like there'd be some stand up comedy attached to it. And then I would definitely do some sort of a drag number where I. Do you know who Leigh Bowery is?
Morgan
No.
Bob the Drag Queen
Leigh Bowery did a performance at Wigstock years ago where he came out and gave birth to a woman on stage. See, when I tell you, it's brilliant. Leigh Bowery was walking around Wigstock for hours in this. What looked like a pregnancy suit. Fat suit almost. It didn't even look pregnant. It looked like, like, it looked like maybe like a fat suit, but like, Leigh Bowery's walking around in this giant outfit for hours.
Morgan
Wait, is this it? This brown suit?
Bob the Drag Queen
Leigh Bowery, live birth. And then after wearing this, this, like giant suit all day, Leigh Bowery gets on stage, lays down, performs all youl Need Is Love by the Beatles while singing it live. And then a fully grown woman, not a small woman, a fully grown, maybe five, seven woman, crawls out of his crotch.
Morgan
What?
Bob the Drag Queen
She's butt naked.
Morgan
How long was she in there?
Bob the Drag Queen
Hours.
Morgan
All day hours. How did Lee carry this person?
Bob the Drag Queen
Lee was a big man. Lee was a big, strong man.
Morgan
But still, this doesn't sound like no easy feat. Yeah. What?
Bob the Drag Queen
And then he bit the umbilical cord himself and then continued singing all year.
Morgan
Did you say bit it? Bit it?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yep.
Morgan
Was it made out of licorice?
Bob the Drag Queen
I wasn't there, but it looked like meat. Oh, it looked like maybe like pig intestines maybe. Have you found the picture?
Morgan
Yeah. What are we doing?
Bob the Drag Queen
Do you show pictures on screen? Do they know?
Morgan
Yeah, this.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, it's pretty. It's pretty iconic. It's pretty iconic.
Morgan
I just, like, don't understand how he made the crotch.
Bob the Drag Queen
She's upside down. Oh, I forgot to say that part. She's upside down.
Morgan
Oh, my God.
Bob the Drag Queen
So you probably type in diagram. There's actually drawings of how it works, I think. Yeah, she's upside down. On his person. Yep, that's it.
Morgan
Oh, my God. They're like 6 9ing.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. For hours.
Morgan
Oh, my God. I would not want someone to have my crotch in their face that long.
Bob the Drag Queen
What if I. Yeah, me either.
Morgan
What if I toot?
Bob the Drag Queen
Who would want to put your face in someone's crotch for hours?
Morgan
For hours.
Bob the Drag Queen
Who would want that? That would be crazy. What?
Morgan
Okay, Bob, you have more endurance than the average bear fog. No, thanks. Sweaty ball sack in my face. No, just, you know. No. I don't know. Maybe some baby powder. Morgan, you got some endurance. My activity tolerance is not that great. I like starfish mode most days.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, I am. I am an active participant.
Morgan
Okay, I love that for you. What do you think the top comment is on this one?
Bob the Drag Queen
I. So there's a. Is there a voting on this as well?
Morgan
Am I overreacting? So it's kind of like a yes.
Bob the Drag Queen
I think most people are saying, yes, you are reacting. It sounds like an exciting event to go to. That's what I think is saying yes, you're reacting.
Morgan
Top comment. You're going to take a deep breath, sit down, and send her a message. Quote, hey, I thought better and I must be there. You are my sister and I love you. Don't take back what you actually think and tell no lies. Why are you going to do that? Not because a random Reddit user said so. But because deep in your soul, you must know that it's going to be the event of the century of your family. Stay near Uncle Taco and just absorb everything to tell the story for grandkids. Yours, hers, whomever. It must be witnessed.
Bob the Drag Queen
I agree. By the way, Obsidian fully wrote that herself.
Morgan
Obsidian.
Bob the Drag Queen
It's like, signed, Obsidian Wolfox. We found your. We found your burner account. Obsidian. Nice try.
Morgan
Womb Fox.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, it's Womb Fox.
Morgan
Womb.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh. Even more iconic.
Morgan
I like Wolf Fox.
Bob the Drag Queen
Wolfox is a great name, but Womb Fox is. Is more ridiculous, which is why I like it more.
Morgan
Oh, my God. Someone needs to, like, make this their. Their bit.
Bob the Drag Queen
I do feel like, since he's told everyone. This is also why I think it's fake. Because he included her name.
Morgan
Obsidian.
Bob the Drag Queen
Her whole name. He included her first and last legal name.
Morgan
Do you think that's real?
Bob the Drag Queen
He was like, I am doxxing my sister. And just in case there's two Obsidian Womb Foxes. She used to be Lindsay. Like, he's literally being like, go find my sister.
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
So I don't believe. Is there an Obsidian wound Fox on. On Instagram.
Morgan
I'm looking.
Bob the Drag Queen
Otherwise, this person made the story up. Great writing, though.
Morgan
You know, I'm fully. I'm invested.
Bob the Drag Queen
I would say it would make a great episode of, like, Broad City.
Morgan
Oh, there is a couple different things. Obsidian Womb, alchemy and magic. Okay, so maybe this is like more of a thing. It's. It is for women who are ready to be raw in their vulnerability, be naked in their truth and be strong in their power.
Bob the Drag Queen
That's a sex club. That is a sex club.
Morgan
That's hiding.
Bob the Drag Queen
You started for sure.
Morgan
This is their logo. It's a uterus. And there's a red fallopian tubes. Yeah. Ovaries of burning fire in the loins.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. This seems. Yeah. Maybe this is real. Maybe I. Maybe I jumped too soon.
Morgan
I think you're being a little bit of a. Of a skeptic. Yeah. Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Obsidian. I apologize.
Morgan
I think Obsidian's on some real. Some real.
Bob the Drag Queen
Ms. Womb Fox. I want to apologize and I'm sorry that I missed your rebirthing.
Morgan
We can register to join right here. Just one click and where are they at?
Bob the Drag Queen
Where are they located?
Morgan
It's giving.
Bob the Drag Queen
If it says Silver Lake, I'm gonna just fall out.
Morgan
It's giving. British. I don't know why.
Bob the Drag Queen
Of course. Rebirthing through the canal.
Morgan
I need to know where this is. Now I won't sleep. This is her. This is about Joe Bell Cummings. This is the woman behind It.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, that's not. That's not obsidian, though.
Morgan
I was born under a Libra sun and a Taurus moon, I predominantly descend from the lands of Scotland and the Orknary Islands. The Middle East, England and northwestern Europe.
Bob the Drag Queen
Are the Canary Islands? No.
Morgan
I don't know. She's a temple keeper, a friend, a seeker, a student. I'm not seeing where she's not including.
Bob the Drag Queen
As a certified bonafide freak, I have the feeling that this woman would fuck your socks off.
Morgan
Mine?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, probably you if you. If you'd be.
Morgan
But I dare if I dabble.
Bob the Drag Queen
You're engaged. You're super closed off. You're not open to anything, you know.
Morgan
Never say never to a threesome. That's fine.
Bob the Drag Queen
Have you had a threesome with your fiance?
Morgan
No.
Bob the Drag Queen
Is that a man?
Morgan
Mm. Time just hasn't presented itself yet.
Bob the Drag Queen
Who's older? You and him? How old is he?
Morgan
31. I'm older by six months and he doesn't let me forget it. Cougar.
Bob the Drag Queen
Where's a red flag?
Morgan

Okay, it's coming from Today I Fucked up eight hours old, titled Today I fucked up by telling my girlfriend's grandma to, quote, shut up and eat it.
Bob the Drag Queen
I want to say, off, rip. I'm on this. I'm on his side. Okay, off rip. I'm on his side. Because sometimes old people will be thinking they can get away with shit because they're old.
Morgan
Ooh, I thought you were going to come in with a. Respect your elders. Take.
Bob the Drag Queen
Respect my elders.
Morgan
I know. I don't know why.
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't give a fuck about people. Because they're old.
Morgan
Okay, good.
Bob the Drag Queen
Being old is not enough for me to respect you.
Morgan
I hate how many people use old as an excuse to.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, you got to do more than live long to. To earn respect.
Morgan
Okay, this one. My girlfriend, 25, female, invited me to her big family dinner and warned me in advance that her grandma is 93, hard of hearing, and loves asking people what's in the food. She just told me to just smile and repeat things if needed. We're having lasagna. And grandma kept asking, what's this? Over and over again. Eventually, I tried to be funny and said jokingly, quote, shut up and eat it, Grandma. The table went silent. Apparently, she's not that hard of hearing, and apparently shut up is a huge deal in their family. Her mom gasped. Her uncle choked on a breadstick. Grandma blinked and muttered, well, I never. And refused to eat another bite. I apologize.
Bob the Drag Queen
For the rest of her life. For the next 30 minutes of her hunger struggle. She's 93 years old.
Morgan
30 minutes is crazy.
Bob the Drag Queen
She didn't have much time left.
Morgan
I apologized profusely, but it was rough. My girlfriend didn't talk to me the entire drive home.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay. I thought that grandma was, like, asking questions that were none of her business. What's in the food? Is a fully valid question.
Morgan
Is this turkey lasagna? Beef lasagna? What are we working with here?
Bob the Drag Queen
So if grandma's like, what's in the lasagna? I be like, girl, is meat tomato sauce, pasta and onions.
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
And garlic, some cheese. Just keep saying it.
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
You know what I mean. But I. I also know what it's like to take a joke too far. I have misread the room several times and be like, this is going to kill.
Morgan
What's the one that.
Bob the Drag Queen
And then it just killed the.
Morgan
That haunts you.
Bob the Drag Queen
I know. There's one that haunts me. Oh, I do know the. I'm actually afraid to say it because I don't want people to turn on me again.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
Like, I'm genuinely afraid to say it.
Morgan
Really?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, it. It really.
Morgan
It's not bad.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm. I'm actually.
Morgan
Yeah, you don't have to go there.
Bob the Drag Queen
But I want to tell you. But I don't want them to get on me.
Morgan
Well, we'll cut.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'll put it to you this way.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
I Was taking requests. And then as a bit, as a joke, the audience kept naming. Naming this. They would name artists, and I would kind of read the artist.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
I would say something about that artist. They mentioned this one artist. And then I said that this artist is a glorified backup dancer. When I tell you, they turned on me, like the room. It took me like 10 to 20 minutes just to get them back on my side. I will not tell you who it was. I will not give you any hints at who it was. You all can comment below who you see, who you think it is, but it was definitely someone.
Morgan
Someone.
Bob the Drag Queen
Someone who's quite beloved, obviously.
Morgan
Obviously. 20 minutes to get a room back.
Bob the Drag Queen
It was like half my show. Over half my show. The show was like an hour and a half.
Morgan
Were you doing 90 minute sets?
Bob the Drag Queen
It was under half my show. No, I would do like an hour and a half, two hours.
Morgan
That's a long. See, you do have some stamina. Look at you.
Bob the Drag Queen
It really laughs with the best of them. Wait, can I tell you. I'll tell you who it was, but you bleep it.
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
You promise you'll bleep it?
Morgan
I will fucking bleep it.
Bob the Drag Queen
Don't play with me.
Morgan
I'm not playing with you.
Bob the Drag Queen
But, wow. The room literally just gasped like, they turned on me again. This is why I was afraid to say it. But honestly, to be clear, I love her. It was a joke. It was just a joke.
Morgan
No one's gonna know it's bleeped.
Bob the Drag Queen
She's an icon, okay. She's an icon, okay. I never understood families who. Who take shut up so seriously. I never got em.
Morgan
Shut up.
Bob the Drag Queen
Shut up. One of my favorite phrases, and it's just so beautifully crafted, is shut the fuck up.
Morgan
It just has a ring to it.
Bob the Drag Queen
Shut the. Shut the fuck up. I don't know who was the first person to say shut the fuck up, but I know they were like. As soon as they said, they were like, I ate. I ate with that one.
Morgan
You know you have another one, though, that, like, you were clapping back at someone on TikTok. And this might be better than shut the fuck up. Eat my ass after Chipotle. That. That. I'm like, I'm pulling that one out someday.
Bob the Drag Queen
I do, like, eat my ass at the Chipotle.
Morgan
I'm beat my ass at the Chipotle. All you little haters in the YouTube comment, guess what? Eat my ass after Chipotle.
Bob the Drag Queen
I do. I forgot about that. That is a banger of mine.
Morgan
That's a good one.
Bob the Drag Queen
Thank you.
Morgan
That's a good one. Also, what's the best hand to slap a hoe with? I mean, just your little.
Bob the Drag Queen
What's the best hand? I'm pretty quick with it.
Morgan
You're quick.
Bob the Drag Queen
You're quick, if I may say so myself. And I will give myself a comment before anyone else does.
Morgan
As you should, for sure. And you're self aware. I mean, you're just telling it how it is.
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't know how self aware I am, but.
Morgan
Top comment on this one. Never go into sarcasm with people you do not know really well. You'll look awkward at best, totally dumb and aggressive at worst.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, that person did fuck up. I've been there before, but usually with someone that I'm trying to build a rapport with, and then I just read them wrong and I'm like, oh, they'll love this. Because I love this. But sometimes I'll test the waters. Be like, is this person someone that I can really let loose with? I've definitely done that before. I've been like, I'm gonna. I'm gonna. I assume this is someone who I could really be myself with.
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
But turns out we're actually on a more. What do you call it? Like a.
Morgan
More of a professional. Almost like a quaint. Yeah. I'll tell you something to make you feel comfortable.
Bob the Drag Queen
Is there something you like that other people do not like?
Morgan
I dip my Wendy's chicken nuggets into Frosties.
Bob the Drag Queen
I. I put my Oreos in water.
Morgan
I put my chocolate cake in a bowl of milk, and then afterwards eat the. The soup.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, that makes sense, though.
Morgan
So good. People. People think it's disgusting, though. They're like, why would you make your cake soggy? I'm like, because it's good.
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, a Trace Leche's cake is soggy. See, I really love a chocolate chip muffin with water. Like, not like, I don't dunk it like a maniac, but I'll, like, bite and sip and bite and sip. Something about, I think the muffin is just so rich, the water kind of, like, dulls it in a way that is good. And I just love a dense chocolate chip. Like a big fat muffin.
Morgan
Sounds so good right now.
Bob the Drag Queen
And I want to say out loud, too, those of you out there who are asking, what's the difference between a muffin and a cupcake? You fucking know. Like, I'm so sick of this conversation. You know the difference between a muffin and a cupcake? And if you give me a cupcake without icing I won't confuse it for a muffin. I'll taste it.
Morgan
You'll taste it? No, you taste it.
Bob the Drag Queen
This is a cupcake. It's cake without icing.
Morgan
This is cake versus more of a bread.
Bob the Drag Queen
If you try to put icing on a muffin, I'll be like, why did you put icing on this muffin?
Morgan
That's like trying to say banana bread could be a piece of cake.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. Y' all are out of control. You know the difference between a cupcake and a muffin? This is not a.
Morgan
If you want to take, though, some people would consider that a really hot take.
Bob the Drag Queen
What, that there's no difference?
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, that there is a difference. Yeah. It's not a hot take. This is a lukewarm take at best. Like, if you want to have a thought provoking conversation, ask yourself, like, are there more doors or wills in the world? That's a conversation that could go on and on forever. No one knows the answer to that. Although everyone thinks everyone has a definitive answer.
Morgan
I would say wheels. Like, everything is a wheel.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, how many wheels are in this room?
Morgan
Limitless. I mean, I could pull this off of my mic stand and it could be a wheel.
Bob the Drag Queen
It could. But it also could be a door.
Morgan
I could be a wheel.
Bob the Drag Queen
Based on. Based on that. This could be a door I'm walking through. Like, everything could be a will and could be a door. But we know for a fact.
Morgan
Is this some chicken versus egg bullshit?
Bob the Drag Queen
That's a door. That's a door. Also, when you close and open your cameras, are those doors.
Morgan
That is a door. Every car in the parking lot.
Bob the Drag Queen
Every car in the parking lot has four wheels. But. But a lot of them also have five doors.
Morgan
And the hood could be a six.
Bob the Drag Queen
And the hood could be a door. Every building full of doors filled with doors. And in the parking garage in the building full of doors. The glove box door, the side thing door.
Morgan
I'm gonna have nightmares about this.
Bob the Drag Queen
There are more. I think there are more doors in your. Do you live in an apartment building or a house?
Morgan
I'm in a little house with her.
Bob the Drag Queen
Big ring in her house.
Morgan
No, it's a baby house with her.
Bob the Drag Queen
Giant ring in her. Her fiance.
Morgan
These cougars out here getting crazy horses in my backyard.
Bob the Drag Queen
You have horses in your backyard?
Morgan
Yeah. You can come over and see them right down the street.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm afraid of horses. We talking about this today? I don't like horses. What? They're scary? No, they're.
Morgan
No, they're.
Bob the Drag Queen
It's probably bigger than. Is it wave it probably weighs more than I do.
Morgan
Well, yeah, it's a horse.
Bob the Drag Queen
Exactly.
Morgan
You're super skinny. What are you talking about?
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay, all right. Now you're just throwing out.
Morgan
He's like a thousand pounds. He's chubby.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm a little heavier than him, actually. Never mind.
Morgan
You'd like him. He'd like you. He's a cuddly little guy.
Bob the Drag Queen
Is it a Shetland?
Morgan
A Welsh.
Bob the Drag Queen
What's the difference?
Morgan
A Welsh is bigger.
Bob the Drag Queen
Would I see it and think it was a Shetland?
Morgan
Probably.
Bob the Drag Queen
Got it.
Morgan
Yeah, got it. But I have big ones too. Like I have three.
Bob the Drag Queen
You're a wealthy woman with experience. I like that. Yeah, you better work.
Morgan
This next one. We're getting into this. Some tea of it all.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay.
Morgan
Coming from relationship advice. Two days old. Not the person, the story.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm gonna go ahead and say it. Too young to be dating. I'm gonna go ahead and say it. Too young to be dating.

At shopify.com/tht is acting weird and possibly flirty with me and I'm really confused because he's gay. I'm 26 female brother's 29 male husband 29 male hi all throw away because my brother is on Reddit. I need some outside perspective because I feel like I'm going crazy. My brother Matt has been married to his husband Eric for about three years now. They've been together since college, and I've always liked Eric. He's smart, charming, a little sarcastic, and honestly one of the easiest people to get along with in our family. I've never had any issues with him until recently. Over the past couple of months, Eric's behavior around me has started to feel a bit off. It started subtly complimenting my outfits in ways that felt a little too lingering, or putting his hand on my lower back when there was absolutely no need to. I brushed it off as just him being overly friendly or tactile. He's always had kind of flirty energy, but it was never directed at me before. But then it escalated. A few weeks ago, Matt and Eric hosted a small birthday dinner for me at their place. It was just the three of us and a couple of friends. I wore a pretty basic outfit, jeans and a tank top. And when Eric opened the door, he said, quote if I weren't already gay and taken mm and looked me up and down. I laughed awkwardly, thinking he was just being ridiculous. But later that night he brought me a drink and said, quote careful. If you keep looking that good, you'll start giving me a crisis again. He's gay, married to my brother. I don't get it. Since then, he's texted me randomly at night, multiple times. They are not overtly inappropriate, but just weird things like thinking about that story you told the other night and cracking up again. You really light up a room. It feels like he's testing the waters, but maybe I'm reading too much into it. Matt hasn't noticed anything as far as I can tell, and I feel incredibly uncomfortable. I don't want to make a huge thing out of nothing, especially because they're my family, but this doesn't feel like nothing anymore. I keep second guessing myself because Eric is gay, not attracted to women at all. Right? I shouldn't be feeling creeped out, but I am. Is it possible he's just being playful and I'm misinterpreting it? Or is something else going on here?
Bob the Drag Queen
I want to say you light up a room is a weird compliment to give someone because I feel like you only hear light up a room when someone's dead.
Morgan
Literally.
Bob the Drag Queen
Really? Oh, she could really light up a room.
Morgan
Light up a room.
Bob the Drag Queen
No one says, you light up a room when you're on this earthly plane. No one's like, morgan lights up a room.
Morgan
I mean, I would hope so, but I wouldn't be surprised.
Bob the Drag Queen
When you die, they'll be like, morgan lit up a room. Anyway, that being said, okay, so I realized that I was pansexual, like, at 30. Like, I think I was like, oh, my attraction to women is probably not what I think it is. So there's a chance that this man is like, he's in his Saturn's return. Not that I believe in that stuff, but he is in that.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
Which when you start understanding more things about yourself, he is hitting on her 100%. He's hitting on her without a shovel. She probably looks like her brother. So he's into that.
Morgan
Oh, true.
Bob the Drag Queen
He's in. He's like, man, if my brother was a girl right there, I could have both sides of him and her. You know what I mean?
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
What I would say is it could be a sassy gay man. If it was stuff like, girl, you gonna give me a crisis. But when it becomes like, texting, late night, you up text is crazy.
Morgan
Clearly on his mind.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah.
Morgan
Yeah. That is kind of a you up text.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. He's trying to get it in one hundo, people for sure, you know? And any of your siblings gay? You want to out your siblings here on this podcast?
Morgan
No.
Bob the Drag Queen
They're like, you don't out them or.
Morgan
No, I mean, they're I wish. Be fun, but no, sorry.
Bob the Drag Queen
You know, I am the gay sibling. Are you a little gay?
Morgan
I feel like everyone is, which contradicts what I said about my brother.
Bob the Drag Queen
So maybe everyone except my brother.
Morgan
I don't know. You know, I was just talking to a friend about this. Sexuality is very fluid, you know?
Bob the Drag Queen
Have you ever hooked up with a girl?
Morgan
No.
Bob the Drag Queen
Have you ever looked at a woman and thought to yourself, I would like to bone that.
Morgan
Yeah. Which I feel like most like. And that's where I'm in my head. I'm like. I feel like most women think that, don't they?
Bob the Drag Queen
Have you thought that she's like, no, no, you're gay. Oh, well, you guys are hitting on your fiance's sister.
Morgan
A recent discovery.
Bob the Drag Queen
Your sister's gonna walk in the room. You're gonna be like, damn, if I wasn't already married and straight.
Morgan
Well, lucky for the both of us, he's an only child.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, there it is. Has your fiance been on the podcast all the time. What's his name?
Morgan
His name's Justin.
Bob the Drag Queen
That's my brother's name. Wow. My brother is muscle.
Morgan
He said he was cute. Oh, other brother.
Bob the Drag Queen
My younger brother's name is Caleb. My older brother. He's 41. Yeah, he's 41.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
Too old for you.
Morgan
He's actually the first younger guy I've dated.
Bob the Drag Queen
How old you've gone. Like, how much older than you?
Morgan
I think six years. Not. Not a huge age gap.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oldest guy I've ever. Well, I mean, hooked up with was probably, like, I was, like, 23, and he was, like, 60. Maybe, like, 56. Maybe.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, there was a guy I hooked up with who was, like. Who was definitely, like, 64 when I was, like, 25.
Morgan
How was that for you?
Bob the Drag Queen
He was. Well, he wasn't a good hookup.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
He was a screamer.
Morgan
What?
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't mind. To be clear. I don't mind. I don't mind when someone's loud. I don't mind that someone's loud.
Morgan
No, but, like, screaming in pain or excited.
Bob the Drag Queen
He said to me, just so you know, this is how long ago it was on Craigslist.
Morgan
I love Craigslist.
Bob the Drag Queen
That's how long ago this was.
Morgan
Oh, my God. I love.
Bob the Drag Queen
Just so you know, I'm a screamer. And I said, oh, okay. I thought he'd be like, I'm a little noisy when I come. When he. When we were having sex, he was not loud, but when he came, he was screaming, like, at the top of his lungs. It sounded like murder.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, oh, oh.
Morgan
Did you leave immediately after?
Bob the Drag Queen
No, I. In his defense, he prepped me. I was not prepared.
Morgan
No prep could have prepared you.
Bob the Drag Queen
I thought he meant, like, loud moaning.
Morgan
Yeah, no, that said I'm a.
Bob the Drag Queen
And to be fair, if you are a loud moaner, you can't claim screamer status. Because I met a screamer.
Morgan
No, that's giving. I got my arm cut off.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, I know. I. I don't know him anymore. But, like, I have been in bed with a screamer.
Morgan
That's insane.
Bob the Drag Queen
And this man was a screamer.
Morgan
That and death grip syndrome are like.
Bob the Drag Queen
What's that?
Morgan
Where.
Bob the Drag Queen
When the pussy grips up on the penis so tight.
Morgan
No, I love that. I'm teaching you something new. So there's this thing that once you get super desensitized, you have to, like, literally squeeze your dick like you're gonna break it in order to come. It's called Death grip syndrome. Like, your tolerance keeps going up and up to the point where, like, because.
Bob the Drag Queen
You like to punish your penis.
Morgan
I don't know. I don't have one. I would love to for a day, but that's just not in the cards.
Bob the Drag Queen
I would like to have a vagina for a day.
Morgan
Just one day.
Bob the Drag Queen
I would trade with you.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
We could do a little swaparoo.
Morgan
I'd be good. I just want to stand up and pee.
Bob the Drag Queen
I just want to. Well, I feel like whenever someone who doesn't have a penis, we always say, wants to know what it's like. They're always like, I want to pee with convenience. And whenever someone's a vagina, they're like, I want to get.
Morgan
I want to get.
Bob the Drag Queen
They're like, I'm getting drilled. And I feel like if you don't have a penis, like, I just want to see what it's like. And if you don't have a vagina, you're like, I want to get pummeled into the earth. I've never had anyone be like, I just want to know what it's like. They're always like. They're like, I need to get destroyed.
Morgan
Yeah, no, I definitely want to pump a few times, but, like, it's mostly about, like, the pee and, like, doing a windmill, you know, just.
Bob the Drag Queen
I will say that peeing with a penis, to me, I think the penis is actually a pretty poor design.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
Like, imagine if your ovaries are just hanging outside of your body. And by the way, extremely sensitive. Like, if you get punched in the balls, it hurts, but also, that will. Oh, my God. That'll ruin you.
Morgan
That's why everyone in high school would do the flick. They'd all run up to each other.
Bob the Drag Queen
And stick the nuts. Ooh, that'll ruin your whole. Like, for the next couple hours, your stomach will start hurting.
Morgan
I know.
Bob the Drag Queen
And also when you're peeing, you just have your. Like, you ever. If you're in the bathroom, it just doesn't go into guys facing the wall with their genital, with their very vulnerable genitals exposed, with their back exposed to the. To the people, like, pissing. In theory, to feel safer, you should be peeing, facing people, more of a trough. But when you go into the bathroom in the women's restroom, all you're inside of a closet. The doors close. And even if does get crazy, you're facing the door.
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Unless you're riding. Riding saddle. I don't think anyone ever rides the toilet saddle.
Morgan
Facing the door can be really Dangerous, though.
Bob the Drag Queen
More dangerous than. You mean if they hit you in the face?
Morgan
Yeah. I have a friend that was a squat pee here. So she was leaning forward towards the door and someone busted in and broke her nose. Watch.
Bob the Drag Queen
I think it'd be better to put your feet on the toilet and pee.
Morgan
Have you ever done a squat toilet in, like, Thailand or anywhere?
Bob the Drag Queen
Never.
Morgan
Not once very. Yeah, you, like, squat over and just shit in the hole.
Bob the Drag Queen
I feel like if I wasn't comfortable putting my butt cheeks on the toilet seat, I'd just stand on the toilet seat. I just put my feet on the toilet seat.
Morgan
I mean, people need to get over themselves and just sit the fuck down. It's so bad for your pelvic floor to squat and hover.
Bob the Drag Queen
I will say this. What I do is if I have to sit on the toilet seat, I just go to the paper towels, get some soap and water, and I actually give the toilet a good scrubbing.
Morgan
Oh, you wash?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, I wash the toilet. I'll lift it up, I'll wash the seat, I'll wash the whole toilet.
Morgan
You lost me there, Bob.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, the thing is, because you have to bear in mind, I'm sitting on the toilet less frequently than you are, so this is very rare for me.
Morgan
Is it someone's house or public bathroom?
Bob the Drag Queen
No, I will sit on your. I will sit at your house and sit on the toilet.
Morgan
So you're cleaning public bathroom toilets?
Bob the Drag Queen
I will clean the public bathroom before I sit on it.
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
If I go to your house, I just trust that it's clean.
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah.
Morgan
Wow.
Bob the Drag Queen
I really rocked your world here.
Morgan
What if you go to clean a public toilet and there's, like, splatter everywhere?
Bob the Drag Queen
You just clean it.
Morgan
Your partner is over there and had an audible. Ugh.
Bob the Drag Queen
I want to be clear. You're talking about sitting on the toilets without cleaning them and I'm crazed for cleaning up piss bladder.
Morgan
No, you just use that little paper thing that they provide and you just put it there.
Bob the Drag Queen
Just clean the toilet. You just give it a clean.
Morgan
I'm like, really scared right now.
Bob the Drag Queen
But it's clean.
Morgan
No.
Bob the Drag Queen
How was cleaning dirty? How. How are you gaslighting me to believe that cleaning is now dirtier?
Morgan
A public restroom?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah.
Morgan
You don't have the proper tools. You don't have gloves.
Bob the Drag Queen
I have soap, I have water.
Morgan
You don't have gloves or a brush?
Bob the Drag Queen
I wash my hands.
Morgan
No.
Bob the Drag Queen
And then I'll still put the thing down.
Morgan
You can't keep doing this.
Bob the Drag Queen
And I'll still put the thing down. No, I wash the toy Then I go wash my hands and then I go and poop.
Morgan
You know, they say politicians are public servants, but I'm the one who you are.
Bob the Drag Queen
Not all heroes wear capes. Some of them wear afros.
Morgan
You are a true public servant. Wow. And just think about the next person that goes into that stall and gets to have that clean toilet and not even know that it's because of you.
Bob the Drag Queen
Specifically, Bob the Drag Queen. I will say, though, if I'm pooping at a place where I don't want people to, like, know that I see you in there, I will put my feet up on the door, which will stop the door from opening if it does.
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
And I'm usually wearing shoes that are like, I know those shoes. Like, I don't have, like, a lot of Air Force ones. It's like these fucking. These are like some giant Crocs.
Morgan
I like those.
Bob the Drag Queen
And my shoes are easy to clock.
Morgan
So they're going to nose you under the stall door. So you're really protecting your. Yourself.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah.
Morgan
So this one, you think? Definitely flirting. Got a crush?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, for sure. He wants to fuck his. His sister in law.
Morgan
How do you approach this? Do you go to your brother as.
Bob the Drag Queen
A sister in law?
Morgan
Yeah, as this person. Like, do you go to him and you're like, hey, bitch, you role play. What do you do?
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm the sister, my brother in law.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
Hey, Dale, can I ask you, like, an odd question?
Morgan
Sure.
Bob the Drag Queen
Do you think I'm sexy?
Morgan
Just out and open like that? Yeah. Yeah, I do.
Bob the Drag Queen
Like, not like, girl, you're sexy. Like, do you want to have sex with me?
Morgan
You're just hitting it right from. Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Do you want to have sex with me?
Morgan
Yeah. I'm not that open and forward. I would have a hard time approaching him like that.
Bob the Drag Queen
We're in the scene, Morgan. I need you to stay in the scene. Dale, do you want to have sex with me?
Morgan
I'm gay.
Bob the Drag Queen
So that's a no.
Morgan
Yeah, I'm just. I'm super gay.
Bob the Drag Queen
So I've been witnessing some signals from you that seem like you want to have sex with me. Now this. I could be reading it wrong, but. And it's lately, like, I've known you for years.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
This is. I've known you for three years now, but lately you've been commenting on my body and I have been working out. I do look amazing. I have been changing the way I dress a little bit. I've been more confident in myself. But then, like, the late night text, it's giving. You want to have sex with me. And if that's not the case, I want you to know that's how I'm reading it and it does make me uncomfortable.
Morgan
I'll tone it down. Okay?
Bob the Drag Queen
Thank you. That being said, you look really hot and fuckable right now, Dale. That being said would bang top comment on this one.
Morgan
I think what matters is that you're uncomfortable with his comments and actions. Trying to figure out his intent is secondary to the fact that you're not enjoying the type of attention from your brother in law. I agree with the person who said to ignore his late night texts and to respond his comments by bringing it back to your brother. If you don't reciprocate his energy, the most likely outcome is he stops. If he escalates instead, then your response will need to change. But as a first step, simply ignoring and redirecting may solve the problem without the need to accuse him of anything.
Bob the Drag Queen
So not the way I said it?
Morgan
No. But maybe mine was the second comment.
Bob the Drag Queen
What's the second top comment? I'm kidding.
Morgan
We do have an update.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, what's the update?
Morgan
Uh huh.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm all ears.
Morgan
Update. Hi again. This is the update I was hoping I'd never have to write. Thank you to everyone who commented on my original post. A lot of you validated what I was feeling, that something was off, and encouraged me to set boundaries. That gave me the courage to actually say something. Which led to. Well, this. I confronted Eric a few hours after my post. My plan was to just make it clear that whatever he thought he was doing needed to stop, that I wasn't comfortable and I didn't want things to get weirder. But the conversation went sideways fast. I told him that some of his recent comments had crossed a line and that while I wanted to believe it was harmless, it didn't feel that way anymore. He looked at me for a long time, didn't say anything, and then finally said, quote, I'm bisexual. He told me that in high school he had relationships with girls and that while he realized pretty early on he was mostly into men, he never stopped missing certain things about being with women. The way it felt, the different kind of energy. But then he met my brother in college, fell in love, came out fully, and figured that part of his life was just done. Except according to him, it never really went away. He said that being around me lately stirred something up and reminded him of what he used to feel with women.
Bob the Drag Queen
Because she looks like her brother.
Morgan
He said he wasn't trying to act on anything, but being near that Energy again made him feel alive in a way he hadn't in years. I was honestly stunned into silence. It felt like the floor dropped out from under me. I asked him flat out if he was attracted to me. He said no.
Bob the Drag Queen
But he said, not my type, you ugly slut.
Morgan
But said, put your boobs away. But said he saw me as the key to unlock a part of him he had hidden away.
Bob the Drag Queen
He's a user.
Morgan
I asked if Matt knew any of this. He said no. He thinks I've only ever been gay. I don't want to confuse him or myself.
Bob the Drag Queen
It's not that fucking confusing.
Morgan
That's when I got angry because I realized this wasn't just about me feeling uncomfortable. This is a giant relationship shaking lie that could blow up my brother's life. I told him that this wasn't fair, that he doesn't get to use me to explore something he's been suppressing for years. That I love my brother and I wasn't going to be part of any kind of emotional affair, bisexual awakening or whatever this is.
Bob the Drag Queen
Wait, can I jump in before I forget what I want to say?
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Giant relationship shaking lie is crazy.
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Finding out that your gay boyfriend is bisexual is not earth shaking. Now I will say this. Finding out that your straight husband is gay, that is earth shattering. Finding out that your gay boyfriend used to fuck girls is par for the course anyway. Sorry, continue. She's being a little overdramatic with that one, I think.
Morgan
Then I left. I didn't tell Matt yet. I'm sitting with it, trying to decide if it's even my place. I don't want to destroy his marriage, but I also don't think I can look him in the eye pretending everything's normal. I feel sick, I feel used. And I feel like I'm carrying a secret that isn't mine but could hurt someone I love deeply. That's the update.
Bob the Drag Queen
The worst part is being told, not my type.
Morgan
Yeah, like, why are you flirting with me? Then?
Bob the Drag Queen
He's like, I'm flirting with it. Oh, he's like in his. He's like to his friends, like, I'm flirting with this ugly chicken to get back in front of the girls. But she's a. A real dog in the face.
Morgan
That's literally like someone hitting on you at the bar. And the minute you're like, hey, I'm taken. I'm not interested. And it's like, wasn't into you anyway, fatty. Like, it's like, then why were you talking to me and trying to get in my Pants.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. I think that he's lying about not being attracted to her. I think he was playing the field. He's obviously comfortable keeping secrets from his partner. This man is a liar, and he wants to fuck his brother's sister.
Morgan
I also feel like, isn't that a normal thing? A part of any relationship? It's like, hey, you know, what if. What does your past look like? What have you done? Where have you been? Like, well, he lied. Yeah. And you have those conversations very early on.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. He's. He's a liar. And. And I do understand her feeling used because he has used her to validate his sexual reawakening.
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
But if he wants to be reborn. Obsidian.
Morgan
Obsidian. Obsidian's got a plan right there.
Bob the Drag Queen
She has a website.
Morgan
Rebirth.
Bob the Drag Queen
Go to Scotland. Climb to the womb. Go to the taco truck and eat some al pastor.
Morgan
I. Honestly, the more we talk about the womb, I want to go through it again. You know, I want to take the ayahuasca and really just. I want to try it.
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, you did it once.
Morgan
I watched her.
Bob the Drag Queen
Unless you were a C section baby.
Morgan
No, no, I was natural. No epidural. I think she was real wild.
Bob the Drag Queen
Gangster.
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Gangster mom.
Morgan
The top comment on the update. You have to talk to your brother. If you don't, he will feel betrayed that you knew something about his partner and relationship but didn't tell him. This will detrimentally impact you and him because he won't trust you.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, I actually feel a little different on that.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
I. As a rule, I do not tell my friends if I don't like their.
Morgan
Partners, even if they're really, really bad.
Bob the Drag Queen
If you know your partner and, like, you know what I know this is two separate topics. I will not tell your. Tell you that I don't like your partner.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
Because I believe eventually it's going to end up ending, and then you will. You will be mad at me before you break up with the partner, and then you. Then I lose.
Morgan
It's always a kill the messenger and.
Bob the Drag Queen
You'Ll lose your partner kind of vibes. You know what I mean?
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
So I will tell you once you've broken up, I didn't like your partner, but I will not tell you why you're dating that I don't like your partner. I would. I would never do that.
Morgan
It's so hard, though, when they break up and you tell them, and then they get back together and you're like, oop.
Bob the Drag Queen
But it's also not his partner's. That is sh. That is wild. But it's also not her job to out this man like you. No, it's not your job to out someone.
Morgan
It's also like, unless you find out he's cheating, like, he's just. He's just going through it. I don't know.
Bob the Drag Queen
Like, yeah, he didn't cheat.
Morgan
He's not cheating. I feel like I would maybe be like, hey, you should probably talk to my brother about this. Like, I don't want to have this secret. This ain't. This ain't my mess. You need to tell him. It's better coming from you than me. I don't need to be the one stirring the pot and putting my foot in it. Not shooting me today. You need to talk to him. He's not going to care. You guys are married three years. Just don't cheat. Maybe ask if he's interested in a threesome and go about your merry way.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, and most gay guys are into.
Morgan
Threesomes, so there you go. Everyone could win.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah.
Morgan
Could be a win win all around.
Bob the Drag Queen
Win, win, win. Because it's real.
Morgan
Win squared.
Bob the Drag Queen
Cubed.
Morgan
Cubed. Yeah. Yeah. See your mathy.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, cubed is times three, but I guess one times three is three, so it is cubed.
Morgan
Well, it's like squared. It's minus 0.5.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, not times three is times itself. Three times.
Morgan
Yeah. Which is. What are those? No, numerators. What is. What are those. What are those called?
Bob the Drag Queen
What I just did. The three times exponents.
Morgan
Yes. Exponential number. Yeah, no, that. No. I'm just not going to talk about math.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm over it and I might be wrong. Someone in the comments is cooking me. Some mathematician is cooking me up in the comments right now.
Morgan
You can't even get me started. I like, sometimes I go on Facebook still to go look at Marketplace place and you'll get like a post from a boomer where it's like, do this math equation. It's like some Pemdas shit. And you're like, okay, parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction. And it's like, which is the actual correct number? It's like, I didn't want to work this hard today.
Bob the Drag Queen
I would say Pemdas is pretty easy. It's just the order of operations. When you're.
Morgan
I'm going to show you the Pemdas Facebook post that I saw. It was.
Bob the Drag Queen
And I'll probably cook it up.
Morgan
It was triggering.
Bob the Drag Queen
And I'll be like, boo, boo, boo, boo.
Morgan
I'm panicked. I'm not good at adrenaline. Adrenaline is rushing.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm not good at math.
Morgan
I'm. It's. I'm so bad. Like, 17 minus 5 freaks me out. I know this next story has. You know it 12.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. See?
Morgan
Okay, this next one has photographic evidence.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay. Do I get to see it?
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay.
Morgan

About it very dismissive. When I first asked him, he said he didn't know. I kept pressing the matter and he said it can't be regular scratches, and showed me a picture of what it would look like if someone scratches your back. So I was still confused because how does that make this better? Then he randomly goes up to his dog and says, did you scratch me Dog's name? And I go, how would she scratch you like that?
Bob the Drag Queen
Did she leave out the dog's name?
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Really trying to protect this dog.
Morgan
Anonymity for the dog. Like, what could you even be doing for that to happen? He then got really defensive. I then proceeded to say that she always cuddles in front of him, so it just didn't make sense. I'm confused where it came from and why he gets so defensive when I ask him that. Am I overreacting or is he being odd? These are not stretch marks. The camera doesn't capture how deep they actually are. Like, in some points, it looks like there could have been blood drawn.
Bob the Drag Queen
I need to know what part of his back this is.
Morgan
Oh, there's his booty down here.
Bob the Drag Queen
Can you hand me that? Just so y' all know, there are scratches that seem to be right in the middle of his back.
Morgan
Kind of little, like, shoulder blade. If you're, you know, and they're across.
Bob the Drag Queen
They'Re not quite shoulder bladey. They're. They're more across.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
And I would say this man has a giant shoulders in a tiny little waist. So I guess I don't know enough about this man's personality to question if you should be. If you should be questioned. If you should be questioning his reasoning. Right. Because if there was someone in my life who was like, it's not from that, I would just believe them because I. I'm like, this person doesn't lie to me. Does your boyfriend have a history of lying to you? Um, those look like they could be sex scratches for sure. But also, what does he do for a living? Like, is he. Does he work in someplace where. Where are there thorns? Are there bushes? Or is he roughhousing with the guys at work? Is he. Is he a straight up professional wrestler? These seem like things that should be important to know.
Morgan
Context.
Bob the Drag Queen
That being said, he's cheating.
Morgan
Yeah. I was like, bob, you can't be serious.
Bob the Drag Queen
That being said, this man is fully cheating.
Morgan
Oh, my God. Like, these are sex scratches. This is someone trying to be, like, sending you a message, like, hey, it's. It's basically a Leave a ponytail in a car. An eyelash or a telling the girl, oh, yeah, she's trying to think she.
Bob the Drag Queen
Was just in the. You don't think she was Just in the moment, you think she was like, I'm. Someone needs to know about this.
Morgan
I'm shocked. He hasn't come home with a hickey yet. I think she's trying to send a message.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, you can see a hickey. You can't always feel when your back is getting scratched up, because when you're having sex, you're so into it that, like, something is happening afterwards. Like, oh, wow, there's a bruise or something. Oh, wow, there's a thing. And he wouldn't notice that his back was scratched until he went and took a shower. And then he feels the hot water. He goes, ooh.
Morgan
Well, you can't really see back there. And he.
Bob the Drag Queen
You ever worn a sequin dress that scratched you up and you have been getting just destroyed all night long, but you didn't realize it? You took a hot shower. You're like, holy shit, I am scratched to pieces.
Morgan
Oh, I'm shaved. Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
So he knew when he was showering, he was like, she got me good.
Morgan
I know. And it played off like, it's your dog. Poor dog.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, did you scratch me, Fido?
Morgan
Didn't need that when I was fucking you. Comments. Oh, man. Comments really tear into her.
Bob the Drag Queen
Just like that lady torn to him, huh?
Morgan
Top comment. I get those all the time, especially on my shoulder if I pick up something heavy. He probably just had some weight against his back or had another chick riding him really hard. I wouldn't worry about it.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, these are the bros protecting him.
Morgan
Next comment, down. Those aren't stretch marks. It's just an allergic reaction to his side piece. His down comforter. Oh, no.
Bob the Drag Queen
You know, he's. He's someone else for sure. 100%. This man has been getting it in.
Morgan
I know. I wonder if there's any updates from.
Bob the Drag Queen
Cheating.
Morgan
Just break up or just, like, don't commit to being exclusive with someone.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, I. I will never. I'll never get cheating, to be honest.
Morgan
No.
Bob the Drag Queen
You ever been cheated on?
Morgan
I've been cheated on. Never the cheater.
Bob the Drag Queen
Like, more than once?
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Same person?
Morgan
No. Well, I guess technically one of them.
Bob the Drag Queen
Would you have been open to just letting them have sex with other girls?
Morgan
I think if I'm bored and just like, you might take. Take something off my plate, you know? Sure. Maybe 30 years from now. I don't know. I might be, you know, feeling a little lazy.
Bob the Drag Queen
What if he's feeling it? You're just not.
Morgan
See, that's the thing. Have you been on the dead bedroom subreddit? No, that's, like, very common. Like High libido, low libido, and like, the mismatch. And then a lot of people ask for an open relationship, and then, you know, the one gets a girlfriend or a boyfriend, and then the other one is like, no, close the relationship. It's crazy. Subreddit.
Bob the Drag Queen
I would rather lose my sex drive with my partner than lose my friendship with my partner.
Morgan
And that speaks to the foundation you have with your partner where it is very communicative and friendship based and you have a very deep connection. A lot of people, like, I don't wanna say a lot of people, but I think there are some people out there that just like, marry very physically or marry out of convenience and don't have that deep bond. So, like, cheating is like very. It's not as like. I mean, people cheat all the time. They clearly do it. So however they're mentally justifying it, they are. And I think that's a part of it, not having that deep of a connection.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. I think if the sex is what glues you together, once the sex is gone, you're going to lose a lot of the relationship.
Morgan
I mean, I see it all day on Reddit. There's story after story about people, like typically hetero relationships where woman has a kid, husband says, not attracted to you anymore, don't love your baby body. And it's like story after story after story. And it's like they clearly got married because of physical reasons, and now your body changes and it's like, we all age. We're gonna have chronic conditions, like, I might develop gout someday. I don't know.
Bob the Drag Queen
Fingers crossed.
Morgan
Those crystals sound like a. I know.
Bob the Drag Queen
A guy with gout.
Morgan
It's a pain. It really is.
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, I've never had it, so I can't speak, but it sounds like being crystallized.
Morgan
Sounds fierce, but I got gout, honey.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm crystallized, honey. You call it go. I say I'm crystallized.
Morgan
I know. I feel like I'm gonna get rheumatoid arthritis.
Bob the Drag Queen
Is there one in your family?
Morgan
Oh, I get really nervous about that one.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm probably gonna get dementia. Look over there. Runs in the family.
Morgan
Oh, we'll just start sending you to brain camp.
Bob the Drag Queen
Everyone in my family's a little crazy.
Morgan
Do you play an instrument?
Bob the Drag Queen
No.
Morgan
Okay, you should start. It reduces your risk of dementia.
Bob the Drag Queen
All right, noted.
Morgan
Musical instruments, learning new languages. Keep learning, everybody.
Bob the Drag Queen
Well, I have a couple people in my family with dementia, but they live way too long.
Morgan
How old?
Bob the Drag Queen
My God. My father's grandmother lived longer than her daughter. Longer than several of her children. She was, like, probably in her 90s.
Morgan
See?
Bob the Drag Queen
And she was bedridden for 20 years.
Morgan
Oh, that's not cool. At that point, smother me like pillow.
Bob the Drag Queen
Thank you. You're like, breast.
Morgan
Obsidian put me in the womb.
Bob the Drag Queen
Obsidian, would you go to one of the places that'll put you down?
Morgan
Switzerland. Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm sorry, where?
Morgan
Switzerland. You can do it.
Bob the Drag Queen
You've been doing research.
Morgan
I know a thing or two.
Bob the Drag Queen
This is crazy.
Morgan
I've read a book by. I don't know who it's by, but me before you, that's where.
Bob the Drag Queen
That's like, put me down.
Morgan
Yeah, but I digress. How are you going to other people's homes? Are you kind of a neat freak? Are you. Where are you at with that?
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm not a neat freak.
Morgan
No, you're not a neat freak.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm a little messy and I'm not a neat freak. And I don't really judge people's homes like that.
Morgan
What about animals? What if they have animals and I like animals. Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't like cats, but I don't, like, hate cats.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
I love dogs.
Morgan
Okay. Do you have a dog?
Bob the Drag Queen
No, my partner has a dog that's at my house a lot, though.
Morgan
Okay. Curious how you will respond to this.
Bob the Drag Queen
But I will tell you one thing I do, which is uber tacky. Yeah, it's super tacky.
Morgan
Do you clean the house for them before you?
Bob the Drag Queen
No.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
If you invite me to your home and you should know this, you go.
Morgan
Through my stuff, I will Google your.
Bob the Drag Queen
Home to find out how much it's worth.
Morgan
I do that all the time, every.
Bob the Drag Queen
Every month, immediately after leaving I've ever been to. I will Google your home and I will know how much you paid for.
Morgan
It every time, without fail, literally. I do that with, like, office spaces that people are renting. And I'm like, this is a really nice office space. I wonder how much it is. And I go find it on a. On, like, the rental websites.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, I do it every time.
Morgan
I'm nosy and I love real estate.
Bob the Drag Queen
And I want to know what you paid. Because in New York City, you can just straight ask someone, what do you pay for rent? No one cares. No one cares about the question. In New York City, no one gives a fuck about how much you buy, how much you buy this for? Yeah, no one cares. La. You can't ask that question.
Morgan
No, it's a little. It's awkward.
Bob the Drag Queen
Now I gotta snoop. You're. You're forcing my hand.
Morgan
I'll give you My address. You can. You can go look on Zillow.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'll send you mine.
Morgan
Okay, cool. This next one, we're gonna send Monet's.
Bob the Drag Queen
Go ahead.
Morgan
This next one coming from Am I the asshole? 16 hours old, titled Am I the Asshole for leaving my friend's doghouse.
Bob the Drag Queen
Walking out of a doghouse you can walk into a doghouse you're about to see. Let's find out. This is wild.
Morgan
I came to visit a close friend I haven't seen in. This episode is brought to you by Colgate Optic White.

Let's see why everyone is raving about it. Okay, trying the lotion on. I'm chronically dry, so my skin is loving this fast absorbing and not leaving me sticky, which I think is crucial from a lotion. Nothing worse than than being sticky after. And it's in their iconic Shearosa 62 scent. It's fresh. It smells so good. And I think my favorite part might be that this has 24 hours of non stop weightless daily hydration. So no having to freshen up on it every couple of hours. And my skin looks amazing. It's got a nice soft glow. Okay, I'm sold. If you're ready to try it for yourself, the new Body Baudelada by Sol de Janeiro should be your new lotion obsession. I know it's going to be my staple going forward. Give it a try. You know you want to. New Body Battalatta by Sol de Janeiro Shop now at Sephora and SOL de janeiro.com over a year, she always made the effort to come to see me, so I thought it was time to return the gesture. She has a French bulldog, and while I'm not a big dog person, I figured I could handle it for a week. From the moment she picked me up, I felt uneasy. Her Car was absolutely covered in dog fur. She did warn me about shedding, but I didn't expect this level. Still, I tried to be polite and pushed through. Then we got to her apartment. There's dog food and treats scattered across the carpet, random bits of bacon on the floor, and a general layer of grime. But the worst part, the balcony. That's where the dog goes to the bathroom when my friend's at work. No pee pads, no fake grass. Just a cage full of of old pee and poop everywhere. The smell hit me as soon as I opened the door. And that same dog runs back inside, jumps on the couch, and sleeps on the bed. She even mentioned before that the dog gets period blood on the couch. It's disgusting. I haven't sat comfortably since I got here. I had to lint roll the bed before lying down. And even then, I couldn't sleep because the dog kept jumping in and out with its gross toys. She doesn't have a feeding schedule for the dog. It eats whenever it wants, whatever it wants, including hot Cheetos, and then drags food all over the place. Then came the towel incident.
Bob the Drag Queen
This is one dog causing all this chaos in the house.
Morgan
After my shower, I grabbed a clean towel and wiped off, only to find my body covered in dog hair. I nearly threw up and had to use my own T shirt to dry off. I feel so gross all the time. I'm tiptoeing around trying not to touch anything. Now the dog has diarrhea and has been walking on the couch and laying on the carpet like nothing's wrong. I'm seriously overwhelmed and uncomfortable. I know I sound dramatic.
Bob the Drag Queen
It's not dramatic.
Morgan
I want to leave early, but I don't want to offend her. She's a good friend, but I can't handle this. I've been here less than two days, and I'm already spiraling. I need an excuse that won't hurt her feelings. I was supposed to stay a week. Already shortened it to five days, but I honestly can't stay another night. Help.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay, let's just say this. I personally do not feel comfortable lying, but it is okay to be like, oh, my God, I have developed an analogy. I think I'm allergic to your dog.
Morgan
How the hell were you a traitor?
Bob the Drag Queen
Achoo.
Morgan
You don't feel comfortable lying?
Bob the Drag Queen
I never lied on the show. Only thing I ever lied about was that I was a faithful and I legally had to. But I never told. You can go rewatch the foot. I never told a single lie on the show.
Morgan
Wow. Integrity. Never told a lie.
Bob the Drag Queen
Never told a lie. And I will lie in a game. But I just thought it'd be a better. I thought it'd be a better tactic to not lie. Turns out it wasn't. I should have been lying. But in general, I would either. Like, for example, if I go to your play.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
And I did not enjoy it.
Morgan
Damn.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'll just say, I'll find a compliment.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'll say, morgan, thank you for inviting me. I had so much fun. Now, I didn't tell you I had fun making fun of your show to people next to me. Or I'll say, thank you for inviting me. This. That singing was amazing. This set was beautiful. The dancing, remarkable.
Morgan
Yeah, you'll find I was finding genuine compliment. Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
Instead of being like, you did a.
Morgan
Your show was good, but honestly, I appreciate that. I appreciate it. You're not lying, but you're still being positive.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, I'm finding a compliment.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
You know what I mean? I like that in this place. I would say, thank you so much for hospitality. It was so kind of you to open up your home to me. I think I might have an. I. I'm. I'm having an allergic reaction that I didn't realize I was having. I wouldn't do this. I would recommend someone like. I. I think I can't stay here anymore. Like, I'm like, look at my eyes. They're, like, watering. They're so red. I'd be in the bathroom rubbing.
Morgan
Yeah, no, my eyes are red. I'd put something in my eyes. I'd put soap in my eyes.
Bob the Drag Queen
My God, my eyes are so red.
Morgan
Can't.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm gonna just get a hotel. But let's. Let's meet for lunch at my hotel.
Morgan
Don't bring the dog.
Bob the Drag Queen
Don't bring your dog unless it has a diagnosis.
Morgan
So.
Bob the Drag Queen
I am not a neat freak, but I don't think I am a dirty person.
Morgan
No, you seem. You seem well kept.
Bob the Drag Queen
But I'm not like. But I'm not like, you know, people who like homes. Like a magazine.
Morgan
No, that's not me. I got shit everywhere.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm not one of those people. My best friend's home is like a magnet.
Morgan
Like, everything blows my mind.
Bob the Drag Queen
Two of my friends. Monet's home is like that. Assad. My friend Assad, he's a film director. His home is like that. Like, everything is so. In fact, I do this bit where I go in his home and I'll just rotate something and then he walks in immediately. He's like, all Right. Let's make sure we. Let's make sure that we head out of, like, literally immediately. He walks in.
Morgan
He's like, how does he clock it so fast?
Bob the Drag Queen
I have no clue. No clue.
Morgan
It's like there's little sensors under it.
Bob the Drag Queen
But also, Monet's not like that. Monet's not good at clocking things. I think he has ocd. Monet just likes to be tiny. One time, I stole Monet's Roomba. She didn't know for two weeks. Just took a room right over her house.
Morgan
Oh, my God.
Bob the Drag Queen
And to be fair, I did it because she said I couldn't.
Morgan
You wanted a challenge.
Bob the Drag Queen
She's like, you could never take anything. She goes, anything in here. I have cameras. I would know if you took anything. I was like, you know. She's like, you could not steal a piece of paper without me knowing.
Morgan
Oh, don't issue a challenge. See, I'm the same way. Don't.
Bob the Drag Queen
So then I stole her Roomba.
Morgan
Yeah. That was a big. A big feat, too. Yeah. That's not small.
Bob the Drag Queen
And Monet has big feet. Big, monster feet. Big. Just.
Morgan
What size?
Bob the Drag Queen
Big concrete slappers.
Morgan
What size?
Bob the Drag Queen
Like a 12, 13.
Morgan
Have you ever seen Shaq's shoes?
Bob the Drag Queen
Never. Not once big. But I have seen Dikembe. No, not Dikembe. Dikembe Mutombo.
Morgan
I don't know who that is.
Bob the Drag Queen
He's a basketball player. I saw him in the airport one time.
Morgan
I'm gonna show you a picture of Shaq. Shaq is a size 22.
Bob the Drag Queen
Jesus Christ.
Morgan
Huh? This is a picture of Shaq's shoe next to a normal sized person. It's like the size of my torso.
Bob the Drag Queen
That person in that video sniffs those shoes. That person that smells, she sniffs those shoes.
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
And I'm not judging. No King Jamie.
Morgan
No, I. Like, that's one thing a lot of people collect, like, used shoes. I don't know, like, to wear. To look at.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, like. Yeah, like sneaker heads.
Morgan
Yeah, but, like, from athletes. Like, that's a big thing to go collect used athletes shoes.
Bob the Drag Queen
That makes sense.
Morgan
I know someone. He's goofy to me.
Bob the Drag Queen
That makes sense, though. It's like. It's like getting a dress from a model or getting. It's like this shoe was a part of history. That makes sense to me. I'm not into it. I don't care about athletics. It's like getting a basketball or, like, gloves from a race driver. Race car driver.
Morgan
Yeah, that's true.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah.
Morgan
Do you collect anything?
Bob the Drag Queen
No, not really. But I do think that they should be giving out the wheels from these NASCAR games because they just throw them away.
Morgan
My. I know someone that has a wheel.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, they should sell them. They probably make a lot of money from them.
Morgan
Oh, my God, so much money. A lot of them tear up, though. And then there's, like, metal coming through. I don't know.
Bob the Drag Queen
I mean, no one cares. They just want a part. They just want Dale Earnhardt's fucking will.
Morgan
I know. They sure do.
Bob the Drag Queen
Is Dale Earnhardt's alive?
Morgan
Junior. The junior senior.
Bob the Drag Queen
When did Dale Earnhardt die?
Morgan
Like, one of the Daytona 500 races.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, that's right. He died in a crash.
Morgan
Yeah, it was a bad one.
Bob the Drag Queen
I completely forgot about this.
Morgan
I got, like, really big into NASCAR lately. Really big. Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Who's that lady? Who doesn't ask her?
Morgan
Danica Patrick.
Bob the Drag Queen
Danica Patrick. She's still. She's old now.
Morgan
She's not good.
Bob the Drag Queen
She's not doing it, though, is she?
Morgan
No, she did Aaron Rodgers.
Bob the Drag Queen
She. She did what?
Morgan
Aaron Rodgers.
Bob the Drag Queen
What the is Aaron Rodgers?
Morgan
Yeah.
Bob the Drag Queen
Wait, she's dating Aaron Rodgers?
Morgan
Did what is Aaron Rodgers? He's a football quarterback.
Bob the Drag Queen
You mean she did him like she him?
Morgan
I would assume so after dating for that long.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, you said she. I thought you said she did Aaron Rodgers.
Morgan
Oh, yeah, she did him like.
Bob the Drag Queen
Is it Aaron Rodgers, like a kind of race? Like, she did the. The Indy 500, then she did the Andy Rogers.
Morgan
So you watch a lot of nascar, clearly.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm a really big into nascar.
Morgan
I honestly could see you being into, like, NASCAR Formula one, though. No, no. You don't want to be a pit girly.
Bob the Drag Queen
I met a NASCAR driver. Bubba Watson. Bubba Watson.
Morgan
That sounds right. Right? I know. Is Bubba Watson the golfer?
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't know. There's a black guy named Bubba who. Who races cars.
Morgan
Bubba Wallace.
Bob the Drag Queen
Bubba Wallace, Yeah. I met Bubba Wallace.
Morgan
Okay, cool.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah.
Morgan
Did you see the Netflix thing on the nascar?
Bob the Drag Queen
When I tell you. I have not watched anything regarding NASCAR.
Morgan
Okay. It's. Yeah. It's over.
Bob the Drag Queen
Is it Indy 500? Is it because it's 500 miles or 500 laps?
Morgan
500 laps, maybe.
Bob the Drag Queen
How far? How long is the lap?
Morgan
You're asking the wrong girl. I can barely.
Bob the Drag Queen
You're the one who did a nascar.
Morgan
Well, they're all.
Bob the Drag Queen
You're the queen of NASCAR over here. You're Miss. Ms. NASCAR. 2025.
Morgan
I haven't even been to a race. I just watched. I'm a fair weather. I'm a bandwagoner.
Bob the Drag Queen
God, that's fair. That's about it.
Morgan
You know, it's valid. I like the drama. I like the tea that I saw on the show.
Bob the Drag Queen
There's a show?
Morgan
Yeah, Netflix.
Bob the Drag Queen
Is it a reality show?
Morgan
Kind of, yeah. You'd be. Give it a shot. Give it a shot. Let me report back, see if you're in a nascar.
Bob the Drag Queen
I gotta be honest, I'm not gonna.
Morgan
Give it a shot. No. I really want to watch tennis. Wives.
Bob the Drag Queen
I'm never going to look it up.
Morgan
Have you seen the tennis show?
Bob the Drag Queen
I don't like. I don't like sports. I don't watch any sports.
Morgan
What do you. What else are you into?
Bob the Drag Queen
Reality tv? I like scripted dramas.
Morgan
Okay.
Bob the Drag Queen
I like movies, comedy movies, action movies.
Morgan
So everything but sports?
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, I mean, I just can't imagine wanting to watch a sport for any reason.
Morgan
Oh, I love football. See, I'm such a football. I love sports. I love sports.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah. No.
Morgan
Oh my God. Craziness.
Bob the Drag Queen
Do you watch football? It was a straight thing.
Morgan
Okay. I can't keep you here forever.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, okay. Well, it's been real.
Morgan
I'm gonna give you a choice.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay.
Morgan
One of my choices on your last one.
Bob the Drag Queen
Okay.
Morgan
This is a very tough decision for me. Okay. Option one, My boyfriend of three years keeps making I hate my girlfriend jokes. How do I make this stop?
Bob the Drag Queen
Uh huh.
Morgan
Or option two, Am I the asshole I outed my closeted uncle after he shamed me for being gay at a family dinner.
Bob the Drag Queen
That's the one. Because I wasn't on the side and then I got back on their side real quick. I'm gonna go ahead say up front, not the asshole. Go ahead.
Morgan
Hi, I'm reposting this here as it got removed on the other am I the asshole sub due to the relationship between my uncle and aunt? Apparently. And I will clarify that, yes. The aunt mentioned is Dave's wife and she didn't know, but she never supported me either. When the insults came my way, post is pasted as in the other sub now below. I, 25 male, came out to my family at 20. Most were cool. But my uncle Dave, 45 male, has always been weird about it. Constantly making comments like, quote, you don't have to act so gay. Or quote. When I was younger, men kept that to themselves.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, I bet they did, Dave.
Morgan
I shrugged it off when they were older.
Bob the Drag Queen
They do too, don't they?
Morgan
I shrugged it off until last week at a family dinner, Dave started going off about how pride parades are just perverts wanting attention and how real men don't flaunt it. When I called him hobophobic, he smirked and said, your generation's obsessed with labels. Why can't you just be normal? Here's where I might have been. The asshole I had suspected. Dave wasn't straight for years. He's always been oddly fixated on my dating life. And once I even spotted him on Grindr, I recognized his torso tattoo in a very not safe for work pic. I never said anything until now, but I snapped quote, that's rich coming from a guy who's on Grindr every weekend. How's that working out for you? Silence. Then my aunt gasped. She had no idea why.
Bob the Drag Queen
Does she know where Grindr is? I think she's on Grindr too. She just gave it. Someone else talked about it.
Morgan
Dave went pale, knocked over his wine glass.
Bob the Drag Queen
Like, do you think your aunt knows what Grindr is? Text an older person in your family and ask what they know Grindr is.
Morgan
Later, my mom texted me. You humiliated him. Was that necessary? Some family members are on my side. But others say outing him crossed a line. Even if he's the asshole, I'm torn. He's been nasty to me for years. But I know how dangerous it is to out someone. Am I the asshole?
Bob the Drag Queen
No, you're not the asshole. You took it really light. I would have came with. I would have came with receipts. I would have screencast his picture to the fucking tv. I would say, let's all go trip to the living room. Yeah, that's Uncle Dave on Grindr. Oh, Dave, show your chest tattoo. We all see it. We all know what it is, girl. And also calling him that's rich come from a guy on Grinder. I don't know. That's rich coming from a come guzzling queen like you. Six foot two bottom on Grindr. Verse top.
Morgan
Tell him, honey.
Bob the Drag Queen
The verse is silent, honey.
Morgan
I mean, let's.
Bob the Drag Queen
Let's read Dave's profile together, everyone.
Morgan
Yeah, no, let's get into it. Let's get.
Bob the Drag Queen
Let's go to. Let's go to the family group chat. Why is Dave looking to fuck a hung daddy? Why is Dave looking for a hung bottom? Huh?
Morgan
Unhinge. Unhinged. That he would throw so many stones from a glass house.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, yeah. And think that his home, his home would never come tumbling down. I say he took it light on Uncle Dave, baby. I would have. Dave would not have been able to walk out of the room without me causing a scene. The group chat will know about it.
Morgan
I would be sending the wife the Grindr profile.
Bob the Drag Queen
Oh, one hondo picture.
Morgan
Pee health wise or whatever. You should know. You should know if your partner's cheating on you, I get that it's outing him, but, like, again, he's making comments equating pride parades to people being perverts like Dave. You opened the can of worms I like.
Bob the Drag Queen
Maybe you don't understand pride because you're ashamed of yourself.
Morgan
Exactly.
Bob the Drag Queen
Maybe you have no concept of pride because you sneak around on Grindr and your wife every single weekend. I see you. We live in the same fucking neighborhood. Did you not think that when I saw. When you. Did you not think. Listen to yourself, Uncle Dave. Did you not think that when you saw me I would also see you? Oh, shit.
Morgan
Insane.
Bob the Drag Queen
That's crazy.
Morgan
Insane. I. No, I don't think, Asshole.
Bob the Drag Queen
No, not at all. And I'm shocked that he didn't put Uncle Dave's picture on the post.
Morgan
I know.
Bob the Drag Queen
Block this queen. If you see her on Grindr, those you in the Omaha area.
Morgan
Stay clear. Hateful Dave.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, no, this is great. What's top comment on this one?
Morgan
Top comment, not the asshole. Funny how everyone comes running in tears once the bully starts losing the fight. They liked having you as a punching bag. And he's just proof. The angrier you are at queer people, the more is just arguing in the mirror. Feels like some Confucius. He literally was mad. He felt obligated to hide. What is your truth? I had to hide that when I was younger. Why did things change? He wanted you to be like him. Be gay, but don't be out about it. I would recommend you get him the book. Why Are f slurs so Afraid of f slurs? About gay men who are terrified of being perceived or seen as gay, and as a result, treating out gay people horrifically. Top comment just came with receipts.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, that's great.
Morgan
I don't think anything else needs to be said.
Bob the Drag Queen
Honestly, no crumbs were left. I try to look at every camera. I don't, but that one's got me at all.
Morgan
That one doesn't see you.
Bob the Drag Queen
Yeah, but I don't want that camera to film. I included.
Morgan
Thank you for that.
Bob the Drag Queen
I want to thank you for having me. This has been really fun.
Morgan
This has been magical.
Bob the Drag Queen
I hope this episode is gangbusters for you.
Morgan
I'm excited. People were. I gave people on Patreon a little sneak peek. Some of the stories I read today were picked by Patreon fam that are super fans and were like, I need to see what Bob says about this.
Bob the Drag Queen
What's your most watched episode so far? Who is it?
Morgan
Honestly? It's a good question. Probably one of My regulars, because those are the oldest.
Bob the Drag Queen
I want it to be me. I want to be the most.
Morgan
You want to blow it out of the water?
Bob the Drag Queen

Morgan

Bob the Drag Queen

Morgan

Bob the Drag Queen

Bob the Drag Queen
Jesus Christ. How about before that one?
Morgan
