Episode 164: Drag Race Thailand S2 E1 – Reborn This Way Jun 10, 2019

Show notes

Hey Mary! Happy summer and happy pride. This week, we're beginning our release of the Drag Race Thailand Season 2 episode discussions. We gag over Art and Pan Pan, gush about Mocha Diva out of drag, and celebrate a runway look that all queers can see themselves in. A towel dress.

Episode 163: RuPaul’s Drag Race S11 E14 – The Odd Finale Jun 02, 2019

Show notes

In the wise words of CeCe Peniston, finally! We’ve reach the end of Season 11 (and 6 months of nonstop Drag Race)! The final four bring their best reveals to this showcase showdown, from Brooke’s SHOE reveal to Yvie’s Free Britney bloomers, while Vanjie gets an entire segment to herself and Nina reclaims her “Meh.” Ultimately, the odds are in Yvie’s favor, and we’re so proud to see her freak frag (sic) fly as Current Fucking Raging!

Episode 162: RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 11 – Reunion May 26, 2019

Show notes

To be honest, this episode is more about the island of Curacao than it is about the Season 11 reunion. We were both a bit underwhelmed by the highly-produced reunion episode, so instead of hating on it for an hour and a half, we plucked out the highlights, and diverted onto other topics like the gay wedding Johnny’s attending (in Curacao), the seemingly arduous task of DJ’ing, meeting Mary’s, and sleeping on Muriel’s Wedding as a Matreon movie.

Episode 161: Drag Race S11 Ep 12 – Queens Everywhere May 19, 2019

Show notes

After a season full of surprises (lest we forget last week's tragic hero elimination of Nina West), this week's final challenge felt like it was covering familiar territory. A'keria's choreography journey, Brooke's musical risks and Silky's black panties showing all feel like stories we've seen before. Yvie is the exception, rebounding from a string of low performances to the top of the heap, while Vanjie proves she is the queen of making exits.

Episode 160: RuPaul’s Drag Race S11 E11 – Go Big, Be Kind, Fucking Go West May 12, 2019

Show notes

Season 11’s narrative goes south this week with the elimination of Nina West—especially considering that it was Silky’s less than smooth lip sync that earned her the shantay. (And of course: “Meh.”) While we’re heartbroken, we’re celebrating the pride of season 11 this week with some of our favorite Nina moments. And also questioning the (admittedly fascinating) Silky narrative, the perpetual (and slightly uninspiring) rise of Brooke Lynn Hytes, and the vandalism of Vanjie with this week’s win. We untangle Wig Gate, enjoy another shot with Soju and close out the episode on a needed high note for our Last Chance Lip Sync. Go West, Mary!

Episode 159: RuPaul’s Drag Race S11 E10 – Dragracadabra May 05, 2019

Show notes

We feel a bit sawed in half about this week’s magic act, Mary! Nina pulls a hell of a rabbit out of her hat with her triumphant stage performance, but the disappearing act the judges pull on Shuga Cain is a real sleight of hand. Silky seems to have no new tricks up her sleeve, Yvie’s dark arts are losing their luster, Brooke Lynn’s mom made our lashes vanish with an emotional video message, A’keria is spellbinding despite a flighty interpretation of the runway theme and Vanjie conjures up one more chance to prove herself with some bewitching caftanography.

Episode 158: RuPaul’s Drag Race S11 E9 – L.A.D.P. Apr 28, 2019

Show notes

Rescue 911! Somebody save this episode! Okay, so this week’s improv challenge was no crime against humanity—A’keria and Brooke are certainly innocent!—but in the lineup of Season 11’s episodes, this one is certainly suspect. Silky is practically bugging the judges to serve time in the Bottom 2, Nina and Shuga struggle with being bystanders in their scenes, Yvie is a star witness to A’keria’s winning turn and someone needed to call in Animal Control on Plastique and Vanjie. The cat fight turns into a Bottom 2 lip sync, but was the wrong queen sent away? We plead the fifth....

Episode 157: RuPaul’s Drag Race S11 E8 – Snatch Game At Sea Apr 21, 2019

Show notes

Ahoy, Mary's! This season's Snatch Game is hitting the high seas (because it's a great way to tie in their sponsor?). Nina West does a first class job of teaching the children about both Harvey Fierstein AND Joanne Worley, but Silky sets a course for victory with TS Madison (or is that Silky in a 22 inch wig)? It's queen overboard for Brooke's Celine and Vanjie's "cash me outside" meme of the moment, but Yvie's wishy-washy Whoopi keeps us from getting the inevitable Branjie lip sync just yet. Also: A'keria gets a life preserver from home, Ru points at the stars, Nina's boy drag gets cruised and I managed to go this entire episode description of vaguely nautical puns without making a single poop deck reference.

Episode 156: RuPaul’s Drag Race S11 E7 – From Farm To Runway Apr 14, 2019

Show notes

Plants on the runway! This week’s design challenge has the queens feeling their oats, wheats, grains, thins and oatmeal—and a whole array of other food groups—to create high fiber fashion on the runway! Plastique gets three mommies, Yvie gets fed up, Shuga gets fed, RaJah isn’t afraid to bark, Silky isn’t as smooth as she thinks, A’keria is your aunt who plays football, Nina West is Snoopy, Vanjie sounds off in Untucked and Brooke wastes no time showing personality with those reaction shots. Plus: Alyssa Edwards is here to help water this crop of queens with runway advice, and RuPaul tills the soil for another Emmy.
