"I Don't Give a Rip!" (w/ Amber Ruffin) Nov 25, 2020

Show notes

Matt and Bow say "What!" Because the star of her own show on Peacock and all-around comedy savior Amber Ruffin is on the pod this week! Listen in as they share their near-closing thoughts on the latest episode of "The Undoing," as well as the ins and outs of Amber managing her writer's room from coast to coast. There are then deep cultural observations around coming up in comedy in Amsterdam, Denver and Chicago, followed by Amber's wonderful culture that made her say culture was for her! A surprise gift delivery also delights the three before Amber inadvertently becomes yet another "Grey's Anatomy" correspondent for Matt and Bowen as she helps navigate where people can jump back into the show if they've fallen off. It's all capped off by scorching IDTSHs and a resounding endorsement for EVERYONE to watch "The Amber Ruffin Show," every Friday on Peacock!

"And I'm Bethenny" (w/ Pat Regan) Nov 18, 2020

Show notes

As the saying goes, the time has come and the time is now! And THIS time? The bitch is back. Three-time Las Culturistas Icon Award Winner Pat Regan joins Matt and Bow in his long-awaited return to podcasting, and the three talk one thing and one thing only: the entertainment industry. Follow along as they discuss being suspicious about various people in both scripted and unscripted spaces, namely in "The Undoing," "The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City" and "The Real Housewives of Potomac." There's also a large portion of the episode in which Pat and Bowen stumble upon a sitcom premise and proceed to blue-sky it before Matt chimes in with some questionable pitching. And don't miss the vulnerable convo about late arrivals to certain fandoms. Top off your serotonin with this lovely virtual reunion before you sign up for Pat's MasterClass. And stay tuned for his upcoming projects from which you already know him.

"Max Out For Eliza!" (w/ Eliza Orlins) Nov 11, 2020

Show notes

Readers? There's a new damn president, as a matter of fact. And the Las Culturistas are sort of feeling America and wanting to help change New York City for the absolute better. For that reason the boys welcome Eliza Orlins, beloved Survivor icon and public defender. She's running for Manhattan D.A. and talks with LC about her plan to not simply reform but transform our racist criminal justice system to something that works for all New Yorkers once she is elected in June. Eliza shares how her years representing thousands of New Yorkers and taking on the current D.A. Cyrus Vance inspired her to run for his office. Also, getting your reality TV *MOMENT* in a tube top, how the literal culture that made her say culture was for her (Survivor!) ended up putting her on the map, and some general reactions to the fact that there is a new damn President, as a matter. of. fact. GRLLOOOOOO!!!!! Gonna have to celebrate... THAT one.

"Darn Barney The Dinosaur (Matt and Bowen Are High Again)" Oct 28, 2020

Show notes

Las Cultch gets a little spooky on this episode as Matt and sexual handlebar mustache icon Bowen are honest about and fully explore their addictions to social media. Ultimately, it's pretty evil, huh? The boys discuss how the social media landscape has changed over the last decade from a place of opportunity and exchange to a "zoo with no enclosures" and detail how it's brought out the worst in themselves and others at times. Also, an examination of shit-talk culture as a whole, the scary ads on Las Culturistas, 73 Questions culture, how Mitch McConnell looks like the walking dead, Bacon Egg and Cheese culture, the drama around pumpkin spice and a full review and discussion of Borat: Subsequent Moviefilm, a cultural moment in time that reveals a star in Maria Bakalova and a damn creep in Miss Rudy Giuliani. Matt and Bow are giving you a hug if you're having a hard time right now. We're all in this together and we'll GET through this together! XO

"Matt and Bowen Get Too High" Oct 21, 2020

Show notes

What happened was, Matt and Bowen said "let's smoke on this episode" and then they forgot they were on a podcast and turned into soup. Learn about how Bowen angered the province of Quebec, how Matt was "the best bunter in the town of Babylon", how it feels to be so publicly gay in comedy, and listen as the Matt vs. Bowen on a plane to Chicago conflict is finally resolved. Also, a sketch Matt wrote from 2014 is read live, Bowen recalls a time he went off on two racist French Canadians at the age of seven. Somehow, the two find a way to touch on what, arguably, are their favorite LC topics (Tayla Swiff and porn) and, shockingly, an I Don't Think So Honey is performed mid-episode because one of our hosts can't hold it in. Welp! We hope you enjoy. Tickle, tickle!

“Stunning Icon 2 Whore Ugly” (w/ George Civeris & Sam Taggart) Sep 30, 2020

Show notes

It's always amazing when four sisters can get together, each in their own little box on a screen, and just go deep. And that's what Las Culturistas Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang do with StraightioLab's George Civeris and Sam Taggart. The boys talk how much they love dick, and update each other on what's going on with their buttholes. Also, James Gandolfini as a sexual entity, insane sweeps episodes of Grey's Anatomy and Desperate Housewives, having crushes on friends, and how Charlie Puth made the boys a little horny there for a second! Paws Up For Puth! Slather on some ball toner and enjoy this episode of a podcast that was made for the love of podcasting.

"Name Another Legend" (w/ Jess Rona) Sep 23, 2020

Show notes

JESS-ter, you have done it again! After addressing some cultural items up top (Katharine McPhee is QUAKING), Matt and Bowen welcome the dog grooming sensation Jess Rona on Las Cultch! They reminisce on Jess's early days as a groomer before becoming the industry expert on the new reality competition program "Haute Dog"—premiering September 24th on HBO Max. There's plenty of talk about Jess's transition from working out of her wood-paneled garage to soft-opening her new digs in Los Angeles, and how the vibrant grooming community is wonderfully represented on the new show. The new Paris Hilton doc and The Vow are also discussed as things lead into Jess's culture, which is a three-parter that tracks her progression from a ska-head/rude girl to a raver to an improviser. Wild antics from the halcyon days of Del Close Marathon come into the mix, of course, and the three friends close out the episode with more-fiery-than-usual IDTSHs. Listen, love, and absolutely watch "Haute Dog" on HBO Max starting this week!
