Episode 436: Drag Race S16 Ep 3 - The Mother of All Balls Jan 21, 2024

Show notes

The queens are mothering on the runway for this momtastic ball dedicated to some of our finest cultural matriarchs, like Octomom and Salma Hayek. We have our own picks for moms missed this week, but you should also know we kind of loved Hershii’s Aunt Altima two-stepping around in that wig. We can agree that Nymphia Wind is blowing the rest of the girls away, we have much to say about the Eeyore of Drag and we’re thrilled to see Isaac Mizrahi dandying out on the judges panel, to say nothing of Carson’s Ann Jillian reference!

Episode 435: Dragula S5 - The Grand Finale Jan 19, 2024

Show notes

It’s the final four floor show of the season and we’ve got a noodle wig, a self-gagging worm, sexy soap scum, raw fish, a rose reveal, and one very precarious situation with a clothing rack. Plus: the Boulets at their bat handiest, that MUSIC, and a bloody crowning we maybe saw coming in week one.

Episode 434: Drag Race S16 Ep 2 - Queen Choice Awards Jan 14, 2024

Show notes

The B Team of Season 16 arrives this week and let’s just say it looks like we’re in for a bumpy flight. Plane Jane soars in to a room full of indoor kids and takes hold of the narrative and the ire of social media. Meanwhile Plasma could be flirting with the curse of the BFA, Nymphia is the definition of bananas, and we have much to debate about Megami’s moment. We also discuss the statistics of past split premieres, the parents of Drag Race, Hershi’s Bermuda shorts, Becky with the guest spot and that uncensored nip slip for your life.

Episode 433: Drag Race S16 Ep 1 - Rate-A-Queen Jan 07, 2024

Show notes

The flagship series is back for a sixteenth spin! And while a split premiere and a talent show aren’t exactly reinventing the wheel, some fresh faces and old school twists keep it interesting. To say nothing of Charlize Theron practically wearing a nametag, Love Connie playing neighborhood watch, RuPaul doing intercom acting, a perfectly placed Derrick Barry and the budget for a Beyoncé lip sync.

Episode 432: The Best of Drag Race in 2023 Dec 29, 2023

Show notes

There was much to queen out about in the world of Drag Race this year, and more than we could possibly cover. This week we’re looking back at the queens, quotes, moments, meltdowns and memes we loved from 2023, including highlights from Season 15, DRUK S5, All Stars 8 and Canada’s Drag Race S4 (and briefly, Dragula) as well as social media.

Episode 431: Dragula S5 Ep 8 - "Humungous Horrors" Dec 22, 2023

Show notes

For a semifinal challenge with Humungous in the title, we thought this week’s floorshow might have been…bigger. But perhaps that’s been a running theme all season. Orkgotik continues to turn trash into treasure, Throb gives horny gremlin, Nio has a bellybutton, Blackberri floats like a butterfly but doesn’t quite sting like a bee and Fantasia’s bug with boobs gets exterminated. To be honest we’re ready for a two break breakula from the season before they reunite to hash it out all out at next month’s Last Supper.

Episode 430: Dragula S5 Ep 7 - "Ultraviolet Umbras" Dec 15, 2023

Show notes

It’s time to bring out the black lights because this week’s theme is something like 80’s funhouse neon darkroom nightmare demon—oh and also make it two in one looks. Throb is back to playing Boulet’s Best Friend Race with Nio, and Orkgotik is worried they’re kissing. Meanwhile, Blackberri glows like an Egyptian, Cynthia goes full club kid and Fantasia barely wriggles out of the bottom. Nio strong arms her way to another win and we say goodbye to the much beloved narrator of the season in an extermination that was not shocking, literally.

Episode 429: Dragula S5 Ep 6 - "It Came from Beyond" Dec 08, 2023

Show notes

Set your sonic transducers to stunning because we’re headed to the intergalactic backpages for some casual connections that are out of this world. And a little muppety, if that’s your thing. This week’s sex workers in space floor show was a mixed bag when it came to interpreting the prompt, but it’s JayKay who is most feeling the gravity of the situation as Throb vows to send them to Uranus because Jarvis lost a lip sync a couple weeks ago. We manage to also use up some oxygen on male orgasms, Mary Higgins Clark, Meet the Feebles and the treacherous black hole that is the Dragula subreddit.

Episode 428: Dragula S5 Ep 5 - "Gods of Death (Part 2)" Dec 01, 2023

Show notes

It’s the battle of the bands this week! While Chaotik is horns above Devil’s 4 Play when it comes to banding together, Blackberri drums up some deserved praise for making the most of being, daresay, a background singer. “Gods of Death” sends us down a late 90s/early 2000s rock rabbit hole, but we also talk about organic peanut butter and class trips for a little bit, so there’s something for everyone. Cynthia goes full Baddie Mom, Throb wears sunglasses inside, JayKay has Disney voice, Fantasia brings out a second bucket hat, Orkgotik wears that ROBE, Nio is no guitar hero and in a shock to no one, Anna Phylactic is branded and disbanded.
