AS8 - The Supermarket Ball (w/ Mano Agapion & Nic Scheppard)
This is a headgum original.
Oh my god! Oh I am so excited to be here today.
You're listening to the one and only RuPaul's Drag Race recap podcast available for your ear holes and any other holes you sluts.
I'm Manu Agapion. I am so thrilled to be here today with a...
Oh man, a true friend, a treat, a delight, a diva, a winner of Bad Drag Race, our most recently crowned winner.
Some know are as Trudy Techtiv.
You might know them as Nick Shepherd from Very Gay Paint.
Hi Nick!
Hello holes and poles. Thank you for listening to drag her. I'm so excited to be a guest.
I am excited to be here. And the first thing I'm going to ask you about, I'm not even sure if you can talk about it.
What the fuck? Painting RuPaul's house.
Yes, you talk to me about this right now. You talk to me about this right now.
What happened?
We connected with the interior designer of the space a while back, like kind of early and very gay paint days,
just because we have a friend who ran social media for him for a while,
and through her he found our Instagram and was like, we've got to do a project together.
And we were like, oh my god, of course. And he's done like a lot of years ago.
Oh my god, of course.
A ton of amazing stuff. And then we got a call like mid-year last year that he was like,
I'm going to be doing RuPaul's house. I'm doing like actually a James Kennedy impression from Vanderpump Rules
and not an impression of Martin Pollard, who's the designer.
But yeah, he called us mid-year last year to say he was going to be doing RuPaul's house.
And we painted it in October and just kind of had to sit on it and be little sneaky, secretive voice.
Of course. Of course.
But it is a crazy space. I mean, everyone now, you can like see the full Arc Digest tour, which is under construction.
It's just a crazy, crazy home. It looks like if a child described like in their imagination what a mansion is.
Yes. Like there's marble. There's beautiful colors.
You painted. I mean, obviously we saw your influence in that one particular dining room, which was the other one we painted.
We didn't do the other new jobs.
That was really painted. Got it.
Any of the like flat standard color walls, an actual contractor who knows what they're doing did that.
Okay. But can we talk about how hard that must have been because it looked impossible.
The sort of like Beetlejuice circus tent color. Yes, it was so hard. It was like, I mean, the initial difficult part about it is the math of it because it is these like evenly spaced stripes that then converge on a ceiling that is not a square.
And so this is like, you know, boring sort of geometry stuff, but like doing all of the my calculations to get that right was insane.
And then just the actual like length of time doing install and the physical labor of it was really hard.
I mean, Jensen and I, we like, there's no one else in very gay paint. And so it was just the two of us for I think maybe like two weeks.
Yeah.
Stripes.
Wow.
Yes.
Did you feel crazy painting stripes for two weeks?
I was so buoyed by the fact that we were at RuPaul's house that it like sort of carried me through.
It was so amazing. I will also say, and I know Jensen's fine with me saying this because we just said it on a different podcast a little while ago, but like it was very shortly after Jensen and I had broken up.
We're still like, we're great. We're very great friends. We still do the business together. It's blast and and we've, you know, navigated it to an amazing place now.
But like it was so hard for us to be working together.
Yeah.
Yeah. At RuPaul's house. And so the designer kept being like, if you need Rudy to come in, I can try to call her and we can make a video together. And we were just like not in his face to make a comedy video with RuPaul.
Wow.
That would be really hard.
But just knowing that we left our touch in that gorgeous home is amazing. I wrote my name under the paint. So forever my name will be there at RuPaul's house.
Beneath the layers of that. It looks beautiful. It looks amazing. We know, obviously, you all are thriving apart and together. And I mean, if anyone who is a fan of the bad drag race, which there are some here who are listening.
Y'all gave us quality RuPaul's drag race style TV when y'all lip sync against each other and to the audience confessed you are exes.
It was amazing.
It was amazing TV for the stage. Everyone thought we produced it, but y'all did.
It was so many people afterwards were like, were you so mad that he picked you to lip sync against your ex boyfriend? And I was like, no, that was one of the best live show moments from a producing standpoint that I have to be a part of it was an honor.
I'll say that.
Yeah, it was. It was a, oh my god, it was a treat too to sit back and pretend like I did something. But really, y'all did it for me. It was great.
And we do love each other and to get to like perform and show what we've got together on stage simultaneously was like, it's always a blast. We have so much fun.
Yeah, and y'all are amazing. You're a really killed bad drag race and really brought a level of, I mean, obviously we all know very gay pain, but y'all brought such a level of craft and.
It blew my fucking mind. The shit y'all built and use your crafty like genius for your drag, like stacking hats and I'll never forget your, oh my god, your, the silhouette you created that was also a red string bulletin board.
Yeah, that will go down. I mean, that, I hope someone on Drag Race deals that.
I hope so. We got to bring back for something. The show really made me fall in love with making little drag outfits. So I'm trying to.
Ooh, plug your drag show. You have a drag show coming up with a lot of the bad drag race divas.
Yeah, Chris Renfro, the meat skeleton who was, who was the reigning queen before me, is putting, they're putting up a show at UCB on June 3rd that I'm going to be doing a sickening number.
Oh, God. Y'all, I have heard this. You will not do not. If you miss this, you are missing out on a once in a lifetime because I'm telling you this look, this look number combo is going to flatten the children and it's a really good idea.
Bury them in nature. Oh, yeah, if you can make it to the show, you got to come because I'm going to really be turning it out.
It's going to be amazing. Bad drag race was such a blast. I think the thing I'm most proud of is that that little conspiracy board outfit.
So true detective was my drag character and she is, she was not there to make friends. She was there to find out who killed her sister.
And one of my looks was those boards with all the red string trying to solve a mystery and the string did trace out a sexy little body.
It was awesome. It was great. And before we're going to plug this more than once, but you're not just here because we're very good friends and you're a bad drag race winner.
We're also here because you have a book coming out that is coming out on May 30th.
Yes.
Okay, tell me more.
I'm so excited for this. So Jensen and I, it's like two years in the making. We pitched a book that was a very stupid idea for a book to a bunch of like real big publishing houses.
It's called a very gay book, obviously it's been on very gay paint, but the actual content of it is very different from, it's not like mural focused or visually focused, although there are gorgeous illustrations.
It's a textbook about being gay, but everything is wrong and stupid. So there's gay history and the Paul Revere's history of gay yelling and like why bugs are gay.
It's just really, we break apart a lot of untruths and double down on why they're not true and why they are true.
Well, I never thought about bugs being gay.
All of them are, and for a variety of reasons, having a body that's three parts, sickening.
I would say the color, the color sheen palette on some of those Beatles is pretty gaggy.
Yeah. And they all look, they all sort of look like they listen to Robin. You know what I mean?
They are all like when a new Kim Petrosong drops, they're like very, they're very eager to be the first one to like tell everyone else about it.
Oh, yes, they are getting the leaks.
They're getting the leaks. Have you heard Kylie Minogue's, bottom, bottom?
I heard some gay people doing it, but I have not heard the actual track.
Last night I went to Fat Slut at FreeSync and there were there were gaggles themselves sort of singing the song, but I have not heard the actual song.
It is so pussy.
Well, yeah, we're gonna plug very gay, a very gay book again.
Remember, you can follow the girls at Very Gay Paint on IG, probably other socials too.
And TikTok. And if you're interested in the book, we're doing a live show of our friends and gay shit show that we've had a mono on that's a blast.
Yes. And it's June 9th. And that will also be a book signing. So if you're looking to get a book with our names inside of it, we're going to be doing it.
Jason Maraz is our musical guest.
Oh my God.
It's going to be a real, it's a slay in a half, girls.
Hunt, if you want your cunts gathered, there's no other choice. You gotta go to this show, you, you bitches.
And please gather your cunts.
Please gather your cunts. I mean, as you know, unleashed cunts are illegal on this beach.
Okay.
Yes.
Leash your cunts.
So before we get into this episode, I've decided I'm going to make every guest this season deliver a chunk of the Alexis Michelle rant.
I have it in front of you, Nick. And I hope you are ready to give your reading of the Alexis Michelle moment that will go down in infamy as one of the best untucked moments of our lives.
God, it was beautiful. And I was saying before we started, it is classic American theater. It is Tennessee Williams. It is Eugene O'Neill.
It's so dropped in.
It's good. It's good. So, I mean, again, there's no wrong way to do this.
Okay. Do what you need to do. And yeah, I mean, we're here just to observe your craft.
I feel very deeply for the girls that are in the position you're in right now.
But also because I wasn't sure how I'd be with CTA here. And I helped.
It was amazing.
It was the way and that's all I have.
That's all it is. That's all it is. Wow. Brava.
Thank you. The way you used your instrument and like built the levels, the way you really use your tonality.
Yeah. Wow.
In my culture, we use every part of the voice. Nothing goes to waste.
That is the American way. And truly the only American way.
Okay. Let's talk about Alters 8. What do you think so far about this absolutely bonkers season of television?
You know, I'm of two minds. I love these girls. I love seeing them in the way that I would any reality show.
That was not a competition. So, I feel like RuPaul's Drag Race has this constant tension between the girls.
I love these girls as people and as characters. And especially with All Stars, so excited to see their personal stories continue.
And this is a show where we come to see the height of drag excellence and with All Stars money.
And I feel that we are, the pendulum is leaning a little hard toward the side of me loving to touch down with my girls and not hard enough for me with everyone bringing spectacular drag that I can't see anywhere else.
That was the longest way you could ever say it's shit.
I'm the Lux New Ireland of All Stars.
That was some Lux New Ireland shit. It's just like, yes or no.
I believe such as the America that is the Iraq.
Yeah, I think you're right. I think you're right. I think there's, I think we're, there's some good tension bubbling in the cast.
That is going to be more exciting than some of the, I feel a lot of the looks and some of the looks have been massive disappointments.
I feel that almost no one cares if they win.
Yeah, you mean in the cast?
Correct.
I mean, T, especially this week with Kasha truly laying down on the railroad tracks.
And the thing is, in other All Stars season, we've had the beauty of Comedy Queen's performance heavy queens.
Yeah.
Did not always bring the looks on their season.
Getting to come back and bring it with money and with the time and understanding of how the show works to add on to their performance package.
Yeah.
Expensive couture looks. And many girls miss that opportunity here.
And it's like, well, you already dumped it this girl.
Well, okay, we're jumping ahead, but I need to talk about it because it's pervasive in the entire edit of the episode.
Even from the beginning, they're giving Kasha the I'm going, I'm going home edit.
Okay.
Like she's already saying her goodbyes.
She's saying you guys are wonderful.
Like, wait, if you had to guess, why do you think Mrs. Kasha Davis gave up?
I think that she, I think that after two episodes, I think she saw, and I don't know how she didn't realize this from watching the show.
But I think she saw that her package that she brought of drag was not at the level that could sustain her through the competition.
Yeah.
I mean, we're going to see it in these fame game runways, but totally.
Oh boy.
That's going to be interesting.
We already are a little past it in this, but the wig, Rue wears for this video.
Oh, the Raven wig?
That, that's the one that she wore at the beginning of the season.
No, I think so too. Like we and Nicole were saying the same thing.
I think so. She literally smopped it off of Raven's head.
It looks just awful.
Yeah, I thought it looked okay, but I'm here for this hot take.
I don't think it looks very good. I think that it, I just don't think it looks very expensive and it's Rue Paul.
I know.
And she makes a very small wig.
I mean, she usually makes fun of them though.
Yes.
But I think there's space for her to wear a small wig.
Something about the styling of this wig.
It like, it looks like maybe she's hiding something under it.
Yeah.
It is wild.
Oh boy.
It is wild. I am very curious to see what, yeah, what this, if Mrs. Koshadevus, did she watch
Nisha Lopez go home and the, and then think to herself, well, I'm not at her level.
So I must deserve to go home or what we saw.
And this is jumping ahead too, but Nisha's look for this episode was another body suit.
Yeah.
Yeah.
What the hell?
Yeah.
You know, I think.
Nisha's, Nisha's really stunning.
She's so beautiful.
And that's all I have to say.
Gosh.
I mean, yeah, this show, it just isn't, it's, it's a new show.
It's not the show that it was season since season.
Well, here's my question is like, are we measuring it against all star seven, which obviously
winners, frankly, even if we measure it against Shays all star season, it's kind of way short.
Yeah.
I mean, you're right.
You're 100% right.
Because I guess it is just a one.
Okay.
The other challenge of the show is it is so much work.
You know what I mean?
You're producing, I mean, you're producing 28 looks.
You know what I mean?
And on your bill, on your dollar, I think that we might, this might be indicative of like,
the show really needs to give the girls a budget.
If they're not already.
I 100% believe that because it is RuPaul's who has money race at this point.
Yes.
And even if it's like you're using your connects also, okay, all these pit crew men.
No, Lala, we pretending to faint.
When Bruno comes out, really.
Would you smash Bruno?
Would you smash with Bruno?
I would do.
There's something about him.
I don't.
It's like, maybe it's like the amount of perfect actually isn't hot to me anymore.
Does that make any sense?
Sure.
I totally see that.
It's that dissonance for me is not powerful enough to for me to be like, no, thank you.
Got it.
Yeah, I know I'm pretending.
I'm pretending.
Like I like.
I am imagining Bruno being like, man, I would love to take you down if that's okay.
And you going, yeah, that's all right.
Fine.
Yeah.
No, just.
Okay.
It's a pass.
Yeah, I'd love to be in that position.
I really love all these pit crew men.
Bring them back.
These bring them back more often.
I am gorgeous.
I'm a fan.
All of them, even this knock off Jared Leto.
I love the long hair guy.
But to your point earlier, I'm curious to see how the who the who will play the fame
games and who will play the shame games with their crunchy busted looks that no one needed
to see.
That'll be interesting.
I, I loved candy at the beginning of the episode going.
It's getting gaggy.
She's perfect.
That really made me laugh.
I fucking love her.
I'm such a fan.
And you know, I have to, you know, it's weird about this episode.
This was my favorite episode of the season until it wasn't like.
Likewise.
Yeah.
I just loved like getting to see our relationship dynamics.
I love the work room.
I, I am sometimes an unpopular opinion.
I love where you get to see the actual character dynamics between the girls in the work room
where some people are like, no, I want to see the main stage.
I love the work room during the ball.
Yeah.
There are episodes.
There are times when I do and do not love the work room, but this is a style of episode
where I really love it.
I can't believe Kasha Davis.
I mean, I thought it was apt, but her talking about how she continues to not sell.
Right.
And how she, I mean, I thought it was a great reasoning for it as a drag, as a working drag
queen to say like, that's not part of my process as a drag queen to create garments.
I pay people to do that because there are experts.
But doing drag is very different from being on drag race.
Fully, fully.
Like, yeah, it's curious that she also like, again, I guess we'll get to her look later,
but even I have to say even before we, it's just like.
It almost feels like self sabotage.
I like it's she sent herself home.
Like she knew that was too crazy.
I'm going to, I'm going to go home in the most likeable way possible, which I think she
succeeded at.
She's incredibly likable.
I also, yeah, we'll talk about it later, but I got choked up at her exit.
But again, it felt, I guess I, again, I'm projecting because I felt like as someone who
sabotaged themselves, I'm like, why are you doing this?
Like, let Ru send you home.
I know.
Well, I think that speaks to this being a season where I don't know if anyone's here
to win.
I think the girls are just here to be on TV in a way that, in a way that they'd like
to be on TV.
And so I think more than wanting to get as far in the competition as possible, I think
Kasha goes, well, I'm going to go home at some point.
How do I have the most control over the way that I leave?
Yeah.
We're going to talk about that.
We're going to talk about Lollary's alleged redemption.
But first, I don't think, first, I don't think I don't.
A tube over your head.
I don't think.
Let's take a break.
Come back my break.
Okay.
I want to thank you for not telling me to be silenced as per usual.
I know.
It was a very respectful transition into the commercial break.
For the first time in Drag Her Herstory, we're changing all the rules.
You're too shamed by Oscar saying I was in talking.
Yeah.
Okay, I won't say silence anymore.
Oh, never again, never again.
Don't worry.
There's another break coming for your ass.
I got another break coming for you.
Fuck.
Oh, of course we're talking about Lollary's story of her.
A lot of these girls don't have a great history.
I don't know if any of these girls have a good history with balls.
You know what I'm saying?
Right.
None of them.
Right?
None of them.
I don't remember how Heidi did.
I remember her pretty consistently missing the mark on fashion her season.
Yeah, I don't think because she did a disco thing.
Well, that was the makeover challenge.
Drawing candies fashion sketch of her outfit that is a stick figure with two rectangles.
Does it then say above it love it love?
It says me and then I think it says love it.
You know that she drew this to be funny and they edited it as if it is her actual fashion
drawing of her outfit.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So funny.
I am more I am worried about her, but again, I'm not because she's just one of the queens
we know is going to be here for a second no matter how good or bad she does.
Not important and important.
Now I'm going to try to remind me of any big moments that come up in the workroom.
I especially know we have to talk about Heidi getting emotional.
Yes, of course.
And a lot to excavate there.
I do before we talk about when I talk about Alexis bringing up who's been in a sex swing.
Oh my God.
Very much is giving the energy of in high school when somebody is like, so who here
has sex before?
It's very that it's very I do sex.
Hey, do you know I do sex?
I do all the different ways and do it all the way back.
And you might think I don't do sex, but I actually do it like a ton.
It's crazy.
I can name five, six different parts of this of the of the though, you know, yeah, I know
I know it's like one time I was going down on the guy and like I accidentally ate it.
And then I swallowed it and it felt so good.
No, that's not me.
It felt so good.
Like I didn't even care that I ate his dick.
Yeah, I think that's hot.
It's very that it's very that Alexa stop it, but also don't stop it because you're the
funnest, the most accidentally fun part of this season.
Okay, Alliance talk also comes up before the room moment, the Alliance talk of, you know,
Lollary and Heidi are talking Alliance.
Yeah.
They're saying though you can't talk about alliances in front of other people because
another people here about your alliance is no longer an alliance.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I also say like all the gameplay talk and strategy is less exciting when I'm like,
nearly no one is bringing it.
Yeah.
It is funny.
I know in like it's like I said last week, like Jimbo has the quietest edit on this season
because I guess she's just on cruise control.
Do you know what I mean?
She came to cruise.
She came to cruise.
She is in a race.
She's driving a Corvette and everyone else is drawing a Kia Sophia.
You know what I mean?
And she's like, I don't even have to hit the gas that hard.
You know.
She's so incredible.
Oh my God.
I wanted to say I can't get past and I thought about this every day since the episode came out.
You saying that Lalairee's entrance line should have been I'm that.
I know.
I know.
That is so funny to me.
It's so easy.
I know.
I know.
But hopefully they do a redemption runway, right?
They always do that, right?
Yeah, they ought.
It would be a shame if they didn't.
Well, another great tradition that Jimbo's keeping alive is pretending you're going to
do an ugly thing, but then doing a stunning thing.
You thought that her outfit she made was stunning.
Oh, I liked it.
I liked it.
I guess what I mean when she said I'm going to do babies and kill Basa.
I thought she might actually go that way, but just in the grand tradition of, you know,
a Tyra Sanchez who says I'm going to do this ugly dress.
Oh wait, just kidding going to do this beautiful thing instead.
I guess I thought it was pretty.
I did not find it to be pretty.
I just can't believe that in all stars season eight.
There are 15 seasons of regular drag race.
There is a design challenge where people are still gluing bulky things to the narrowest
part of their corset.
Yeah.
How are we doing that?
Why are we adding bulk to our wastes?
Yeah, I agree.
I agree that that sort of babush go waistline.
I know it's weird.
It's crooked, but nervous to me.
It's confounding.
It's confusing.
And I love my girls.
And I don't want to say I don't want to be overly critical of these incredible drag queens.
Look, they're amazing.
My eyes are starved for beauty a bit in this runway.
Yeah, fully, fully, fully.
So Alexis Michelle is making, you know, talking about her bullshit runways from season nine.
There has been improvement.
There has been a lot of.
I forgot about this for the Native American look.
I know.
I hope I bet she hopes you forgot about it too.
Well, world of wonder wants to make sure I don't.
Yeah.
Isn't it funny that just a couple years ago, we're like, yeah, yeah, we'll do that.
And then it's like, this, it shouldn't have been at the time.
But especially now, it's like, what are we doing?
What the hell is even that?
Yeah, what the hell is that?
So Jessica's here chit chatting with the RuPaul.
I will say this episode.
It's been so long since season two.
I haven't done even a rewatch of season two in maybe five years.
Oh, it's one of the best seasons.
Jessica Wild is and all of her amazingness has not been in front of mind for me this
season until this episode.
I really, I was like, oh, right.
I remember why she's.
Yeah.
Allegiant and an icon.
And I am such a big fan of hers, but also I'm such a big fan of hers.
I guess I'll just say it, but like as a buy an overly biased fan of hers, I did not think
she won this episode.
No, I didn't think she won, but I loved what she did.
Agree, Agree.
I guess, yeah, Heidi cries and it's beautiful and cute and sweet and makes me feel even
more for Heidi is all I got to say.
Yes, absolutely.
And it makes me.
She's obviously in a difficult emotional place during this episode and clearly in
untucked.
I know which I can't wait to see how that plays out.
I'm so surprised to see.
And I don't know if it's just what she's doing or how it's being edited and story told to
us, but it doesn't feel like she's getting emotional because and like having such a difficult
time because she's pissed that she's not being celebrated more.
It feels like there's something like really going on.
I think, okay, I know online she tweeted like, sorry, y'all.
Like, she basically said like, I knew this episode was going to be hard to watch.
Blah, blah, blah, blah.
It's just really, yeah.
Everything's going on.
But I honestly, for me watching, I was also furious with her because for her to not be,
first of all, she should have won the episode in my opinion.
And for her to not even be called in the top to me was the coup, coup, bonamas.
It was baffling.
Yeah.
I mean, her was, am I mistaken in saying Kihana was also safe?
Kihana was also safe, which people said.
No, it awful.
And then the people they praised made no sense.
Lollary, no, ma'am.
No.
She did very poorly, I thought.
She did awful.
And then they were like, great job, which I guess they just wanted that redemption story.
But you can't force a redemption story, babe.
No, you can't piss in my ear and tell me it's raining, RuPaul.
Baby, don't shit in this bowl and call it chocolate ice cream.
Okay, don't throw up in my hat and tell me that it's a delicious bowl of soup in a breadwol.
Okay, do not jizz inside my eyeballs and say it is retinal frosting.
Okay.
Do not snot rocket into my coffee and tell me that it's a delicious mismanderin.
Yeah, it was a mess.
It was a mess.
Do they get to bring patterns to this program?
I think so.
It's not like project runway.
It's not like an excuse for some of the dresses that get created on this show.
And they're allowed to bring patterns?
I know.
Before I forget, I don't think Heidi will send herself home.
Do you think there's a risk of that?
I don't think so.
But again, this season has surprised me at every turn.
So maybe.
I really hope she's just like, it was a shit day.
I should have been in the top.
But I honestly would be mad with, I mean, I'm mad with her.
I'm like, y'all, why?
Why not call her in the top?
Why?
Yeah.
I would love to know why.
I wish I got even one millisecond of feedback.
Why?
What did you not like?
I wouldn't.
Maybe the last look.
Maybe the last look wasn't as good.
But come on.
If leftover from All Stars 8, they are now just in the practice of trying to make everyone
look like they're succeeding evenly.
Yeah.
When that is just clearly not what's happening.
Or were they were like comedy challenges next week?
Heidi is going to win.
This is not what I mean.
It's like, let's let some other girls shine because they certainly won't in a future week.
Right.
Every single person on the judges panel looks incredible.
I think I've ever seen Michelle look this beautiful.
She looks amazing.
I love this outfit.
She looks gorgeous.
Ruiz stunning.
I like this red and blue, very blue, very pomegranate moment.
She looks more like Raven every day.
I know.
I love it.
Good.
I do too.
I do too.
I don't care.
I don't care.
You can look like anyone.
I don't know.
So we're going to chirp and burp these many looks.
I guess we have quite a few to get through.
30.
And yeah.
Yeah.
Let's begin.
So first we're doing our legendary ball.
We got Jimbo coming down in this milky bubbles moment.
I love this.
I chirp this.
It's it's a chirp.
It's yeah.
I think it's very good.
I don't think it's fantastic.
I think there are a lot of instances in this entire ball of someone doing a good job.
And then someone doing a much, much better job at a similar concept.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I think this is a very good job and it's a chirp.
This is great.
Is it chirp?
I mean, even the way the shawl is constructed and goes like up and over is like spinnet
gloves.
It's like weird, but still has an amazing silhouette and her makeup.
The placement of the bubbles is just intentional enough.
I really like it.
Yeah.
I'm into it.
It's definitely a chirp.
Next, we have conno on trees giving cow slush.
That's what everything she did for this runway.
I know.
I know how she under blue is gorgeous.
Under blue is gorgeous.
She is destroying the cowbells in the hair.
Yeah.
So cool.
And yeah, even like the little side ponytails kind of give like the essence of a little
calf ear, you know what I mean?
Yeah.
Like it like makes sense.
She just brought very good drag to the show.
Yes.
Yes.
It's awesome.
It is such a chirp.
This is so nit picky, but I wish the cow hide pattern matched up across the seam of the
butt.
That's a good, that's a good call.
That's a really good call.
I mean, that's really hard to do.
That's a really good call.
God, she looks great.
I mean, you just, you got a chirp it.
Jair's man's feel.
Oh my God.
I love this.
Cookie hands and the cookies cookies into cookie jar.
Get done.
I'm so happy with James with what James is bringing this season.
Say.
Visually, it's just I really love it.
It feels just like her and her point of view, but just cranked up five notches.
I love it.
Do you remember the sketch from widest kids?
You know the grandma cookies?
No.
It's one of my favorite pieces of sketch comedy ever.
And it's just a grand boss says, do you like the cookies kids?
And the kids are like, yeah.
She says, that's good.
Because I made them with my fingers.
And then she shows like a prop hand with very lazily chopped off fingers.
That's my sense.
That is the stupidest thing I've ever heard.
And for that reason, I love it.
And I also love that, you know, no matter what, when you describe comedy, it's not funny.
You describe something that happened.
That was funny.
It's not funny.
But if it's stupid enough, we can celebrate that it's knowing something is very dumb and
that money and energy was put into it.
I'll send it to you after I promise.
Good enough.
It's such a chirp for James.
Good job, bitch.
Oh, getting me those.
I love this.
This is amazing.
I think it's hard for me to ever even look at her outfits though, because her face, the
way she paints is so cool to me.
I love it.
I agree.
Wow.
Her face is an actual canvas.
Like, I love this.
It's like storm.
It's like milky storm.
I love the hair.
These details.
I mean, I love it.
This is a really impressive look.
I love Alexis Michelle getting into this collar and everyone putting on Candy's blush
during untucked.
Yes.
And she did a really clever thing with like, you know, she has her undergarment, but the
way like obviously this like differently shaped bathing suit comes over it is it's
fierce and it works so that you don't have that like so that the final impression isn't
the undergarment.
It's the yes.
Yeah.
It's I like it.
I will say Candy is doing a lot of leotards this season, but I it's a lot, but they're all
done impeccably.
I would like to see some differentiation.
Big totally.
Totally.
Yes.
I like it.
I liked it.
I liked it.
It's not my favorite interpretation of the prompt.
That said, I think it's excellently done and she looks very good.
She's such a beautiful, beautiful queen.
I love the like leather motocross or motor motorcycle jacket version of this.
Yeah.
It's just she looks incredible.
It's really cool.
It's yeah, I can't not chirp it.
It's a chirp.
I mean the ear details, the hair tuft.
Yeah.
And her cow print lines up across the seam.
I was going to say, yeah, it's it's cool.
I like even the the tail detail works with the character.
She's given it.
Yeah.
It's cool.
It's a chirp.
She's great at drag.
La la rie giving as they called it moella de ville.
So it's hard because here this is what we have a lot of examples of.
It's just this is a much less successful version of something we seem to really successful
versions of.
I agree.
It's fine, but I just saw a better version of it.
I do like the wig.
I like the kind of weird chopped wig.
I I like a lot of pieces of it.
I love the little milk bag handbags, but I like I've got to say and I love all our
almost no pieces of this.
Fair.
I like that there are other than these pointy shoulders.
Everything in this outfit looks like you could buy it at ballskill.
Yeah, it's probably probably.
I hate it.
I'm so sorry.
It's a verb for me.
I I give it the light chirp because it's it's it's it just works and it just works just
enough for me.
It's not great, but it just I mean again it's not I don't think it's her.
Worst look in this ball is the pointiness of the fedora a reference to something.
It's a reference to the friend she borrowed the hat from.
I don't know.
I just think if you're going to do a big oversized like stupid sized hat this they shouldn't
be this shape.
Yeah.
Yeah, agreed.
I know and why the why the fetish where I don't know.
Jerry and Lake giving milk in Grecian goddess.
Um, no, well, no, I love the wig and obviously her face is always beautiful.
Yeah.
Um, I think this could have been much more successful if there was an element that of
contrast to make the drips down the bottom more noticeable, but you lose them because
there's no stoning or anything or volume to separate them.
Right.
Yeah, it's a little silly.
And it's just belted.
It's just belted with the cheap Amazon, you know, a wastelet you can get for $7.
It's getting safe look from a regular season a few seasons ago.
Yes.
Yes, yes, yes.
I'll give it a give it a give it a give it a and here we have the all stars version of
that outfit.
Yeah.
Just wild.
Yeah.
Are you burping, Darien?
Oh, of course.
Jesse go while giving cereal.
I mean, I was so horny because I as someone who loves cereal, a girl after my heart.
This is, this was my, I think my favorite outfit of the, second favorite outfit of the
episode will get to my favorite.
Yeah.
I really liked it.
I love this.
I wanted just a few more details.
Like, I think there should have been some smaller cereal pieces in the mix.
It's a shame that the earrings aren't the same kind of loop that's on the dressing in
the bowl.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I see that.
It's cute.
I like it a lot and I love cereal and I love Jessica Wiles.
So altogether I love it.
To me it was like nine out of 10.
I wish it was 10 out of 10, but it's still a chirp.
It's a chirp.
It got me really excited, especially after it's just a much better version of Darien's.
Yeah.
It's really, really.
Yes.
It's her, her outfit is bookended by two worst versions of this outfit.
Isn't that funny?
I wouldn't be surprised if the editors did that on purpose.
Mrs. Kasha Davis allegedly a sour cream.
Is that a handle?
What is that?
Is that a handle?
Is she a spigot?
It's crazy that they don't make her explain it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Is it a handle like a little like what?
Yeah.
I would more, I would more readily believe that she's like those porcelain creamer containers.
She's got what essentially could be a spout on the opposite shoulder.
Yeah.
The only thing giving sour cream is this, what I find to be a delightful face that she's
making.
Yeah.
Like her face is always fun.
Yeah.
But it's a white dress with some two of the smallest details in the world on it.
Right.
What is going on in this ball?
It's a burp.
Get it away from me.
Yes.
This look has curdled and I never want to consume it again.
Okay.
It's a bit of a tidy, holy shit.
This is lovely.
This is very good.
This deserves to be in the top.
Just this.
Yes.
I never noticed the hand print on her ass.
Milky hand print on the ass.
Nylon is amazing.
The details are sick.
She brought actual little milk jars, which she deserves points for.
This is beautiful.
I love this look.
I love this look.
I love this look.
I'm so mad she wasn't in the top.
I'm so mad she wasn't in the top.
It's a chirp.
Yeah.
It's fantastic.
It's very, very well done.
It's chalered.
It's gorgeous.
The color palette is gorgeous.
It's the right hair for the look.
It lets the outfit do all the talking.
It's really expertly done.
If you're mad now, just wait.
You'll get even better.
But first, shut up Nick.
Wait, no.
I feel like taking a break.
Bring back my break.
How's it feel?
Hold on.
I'm just going to wipe away some of the tears.
That really hurt me model.
What?
You didn't know how you'd be received here?
Yeah.
What's the last line that I said?
It was amazing.
It was amazing the way.
Oh my god.
The way.
I go on longer.
I'll keep transcribing.
But it's only so much acting I can ask of my guests.
Of course.
It was amazing the way by Ariana Grande featuring McElink.
Are you ready for this next look in the bowl, the supermarket bowl?
I'm so ready for our next look.
40 Petootie, we got Jimbo giving fruits of history.
Yeah.
Something I thought about in my rewatch that I didn't think about in the initial time is
I was so, I love this dress.
Obviously, it's beautiful.
It actually looks flawless.
It's so exciting.
It's too far from the prompt.
Yeah.
I feel.
Yeah.
But it is an incredible look.
I was okay with the farness from the prompt.
I guess I was okay with it.
Something about the color palette too sold it to me.
If it was just like queer icons without a color palette that screamed fruity, I would
maybe have been more bothered, but it worked for me.
Fruity is not a color.
It is a flavor.
I know.
But when I, as a serial bitch, when I hear fruity, I think pebbles, I think loops.
So like that worked for me.
I think fun, Feddy.
Okay.
It worked for me.
I guess for me, like I'm okay with Jimbo being like, let me do something so I don't come
as another strawberry.
Let me do something.
Sure.
I mean, look is amazing and I think excuses any issue.
If she had done a version of this that had not looked good, I think I would have been
really upset that it was, she didn't really, there's no fruit anywhere.
Especially, it's a trip for me just because she referenced Blair St. Clair at the end of
the runway giving a shush to Burr, giving the shush in Burr as you can see.
Burr.
That's so stupid.
Okay.
This.
I can't believe she wasn't in the time.
Favorite look of the season so far.
Yeah.
Fully.
Amazing.
I cannot believe the Kahanamantris' banana outfit needs to be in a museum.
This is wonderful.
The hair is gorgeous and also horny and makes me want to sit on it.
That is curved like the top of a banana.
Like just the attention to detail.
Unbelievable.
Unreal.
The way these like bananas look like oversized like burberry buttons, you know what I mean?
The way they look like those knobby buttons on like a peacoat is fierce.
I'm running to see any show in my area that Kahanamantris is on after stage.
It's great.
I've seen her live recently at the Drag Race Live.
She was great.
I mean, chirp.
Maybe even a kakat.
This is perfect.
Holy shit.
It's a kakat for me 1000%.
Jesus.
God, they're stupid.
Okay.
James Mansfield.
Um, no.
Golly, I think this is just good enough.
For what?
The dumpster?
Uh, I mean, it's the...
There are some exciting things going on.
I think if the bottom wasn't...
It looks like it fits really poorly.
I don't know if it needs to be steamed or what, but the top of it, the like dewy spurts,
I really like.
Yeah, I am going to burp it.
I'm going to burp it.
I like parts of it, but yeah, the bottom is just unfinished enough for me to go.
No.
It's going to be a soft chirp for me.
Um, the...
Is she always wearing...
Does the shoe just look tiny?
Um, that's a great question.
No, it's tiny.
It's tiny.
I feel like she's been wearing a lot of teeny tiny shoes.
Tiny heels.
Yeah.
The hair is unbelievable.
I mean, the hair is the mug's right.
It's James.
It's going to be amazing hair.
I like it.
The God, the squirt effect is great.
Yeah.
But now it's a burp for me personally.
I have to respect it.
Uh, candy mues.
Giving chikacary cola.
What do you think?
I think candy mues...
God, the makeup is amazing.
I feel like she's having trouble dressing for her body this season.
Yeah, I also just...
I just want differentiation.
I just...
We've seen so much of this now.
I just think like bigger girls have such...
Like, obviously the odds are going to be stopped against you because everyone is just
going to root for a skinny queen in a scrap of fabric and be like, it's fashion.
Yes!
People love...
People love skinny bodies.
And it's an unfortunate part of fashion.
I know.
Which is why I do want to celebrate her wearing things like this.
My main issue is just too similar to all the other bathing suits she's been wearing.
I kind of think my point of view is I just kind of...
I don't want anyone to dress like this anymore.
I'm like, cool.
Everyone start giving us drag.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Like, just give me a giant ass.
Like just start giving me drag.
I like the way that the fascinator...
Not that this is a drag.
It's just the body is not a bit.
She's not going to be drag body.
All drag is valid.
No one come for me.
I hear you.
I like it.
I mean, okay, okay.
I especially love that there's a fascinator on her head and it corresponds to a finger wave
that would be period appropriate.
I like that overall the look really is besides the actual body suit is modern bondage-ish.
But like the boa and the face, that's all like period brilisk.
It's a light chirp for me.
The titty out doesn't work for me.
I think I don't like a pasty unless it's on a big fake boob.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So I think this is...
God, it's...
Say it.
I'm going to ignore the fact that her makeup is perfect and amazing.
It's a burp for me.
Fair.
Alexis Michelle giving blueberry.
Oh, beautiful.
It's really cool.
I mean, she knows how to experiment with makeup in a way that like it's still really beautiful.
It's still pleasing to her shape.
The wig is cool.
The dress is cool.
I love this wig.
Yeah.
The white.
The white with blue is an interesting and cool juxtaposition.
Yes.
For me, she is brushing lightly against being too far from the prompt, but she's close enough.
She's on like the other side of the line from Jumbo for me.
Yeah.
They're both not that line.
Yeah.
I mean, those little sequin blueberry details, I think, on the dress or saving it for me.
I get in the wig itself.
I'm like, wow, how the hell do you get someone to make you little blueberry balls on your
hair?
It's a chirp for me.
It's cool.
Yeah.
It's definitely a chirp for me.
She's so gorgeous.
And because pulling off, especially like pulling off icy, like icy...
Anytime you're going icy on the makeup, it's really hard to look beautiful, you know?
Since she's doing this sort of like classic look while still managing to feel very modern
and contemporary, like...
You can't come for her looks.
I know.
Okay.
Now I'm gonna...
But what we can come for is...
Lalairees...
This is a next look.
Candy Apple.
That they praised.
They said it was wonderful.
That is unbelievable to me.
I feel that this idea is genius.
The idea is great.
The execution is awful.
It's very...
The execution feels very bad.
It feels like it's about to fall apart.
Yes.
She's not...
Also it's just a vinyl dress.
It's not anything she got made.
There's no details at the bottom that tie the top together.
If she had found a sickening...
The way Candy Mews' milk splashes were, if she had found a high quality sickening way
to get this caramel incorporated into the red vinyl dress, this could have been amazing.
But it looks awful.
And I would say...
It's so gross.
Put a wig on underneath.
Like stop this, Lalairee.
You stop this bald cap bullshit.
Even if it's Taffy Apple, you can have a wig on underneath because the way it's gapping
and showing a lot of her man head...
I don't like it.
Yeah, I think if you're not going to wear a wig, you need to paint more severely, Lala
does.
If you're doing a bald look, I think that you need to really get that contour making
you look gaunt and like...
I hate this.
Yeah, it's very bad.
You're so right.
That is good advice.
I'm sorry, I got too mad.
That is good advice.
No, that's okay.
I just don't think she paints for a way...
The reason Raven looks so good in short little wigs is that her face is carved like a sculpture.
And Lala paints soft in a way that I think will best coincide with a beautiful glamorous
woman's hair.
Yeah, yeah.
Darien Lake, this is her most successful look in my opinion of her looks.
This sort of tear away to the Chris Evans cherry on my titties and privates.
I hate it.
I hate it.
The bodysuit is not quite a new delusion.
It's not quite a bodysuit.
It is like...
I mean, there's no wrong way to do drag, but I feel like my rule of thumb is a watcher
of drag is that the things I like pick a direction and go really far in it and the things that
I don't like sit, like can't quite decide what they're doing and that's why I don't
like it.
So I think that the bodysuit doesn't know if it's nude or not and I hate that.
I also think that it doesn't seem like it fits very well, especially at the bottom.
You're unfortunately right.
And I thought this was the most successful of her looks though.
I know.
She's managed to make her pelvis look so long and I don't know if it's that the patch should
be different and go a bit wider.
But it looks like her legs are short and her pelvis is long.
Yeah.
I wish it was the other way around.
I also hate this wig.
I really like her face.
Yeah, she's amazing.
I was okay with the wig and face personally.
That's just me.
I'm not going to give it the bodysuit.
I know it's not right at all.
The banana is supposed to look like it's coming out of the butthole and it does it.
It's like the back is too high, the front is too low.
I'm going to give it the lightest chirp just for ex...
It's a burr.
It's a burr.
I love Darian.
She said some of the funniest things I've ever seen on this show and I think this outfit
is very bad.
It's tragic.
Okay, Jessica while giving a grape lady.
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
Very bad.
Oh, oh, oh.
Oh, dear.
She is hurt.
I hope she gets the help she needs.
So I like this.
Okay.
I like this.
I think she looks fantastic.
I don't think the look is the most gaggy, outrageous thing I've ever seen.
But she looks beautiful.
It's really well done.
Yeah, it's fine.
It's definitely a chirp because the proportions are nice.
Love the lip.
The great moment.
She just looks beautiful.
Yeah, it's a chirp.
I like it.
Yeah, I think it's really well executed and she passes this thing that I think a lot of
people don't when they do the 50s looks, which is that I think some people think like
if I do 50s fashion, that is a departure enough from normal outfits to be drag and to be
a costume.
But I think even if you're referencing back to the 50s, you need to heighten a little
more.
We need to get a little more costume and a little more drag out of it.
And I think Jessica is doing that.
I think James often is doing it this season.
But we have like people in the past like Robbie Turner who are like, it's enough for
me to just dress like it's the 50s.
Right, right, right, right.
It's enough to just do a period piece.
And also accuse a stranger of murder.
And that's not.
Well, that was her heightening.
You know, she said, if I'm just going to do the 50s look.
Kaja Davis giving, you know, Carmen Miranda banana lady.
Yeah, it's a chirp.
It's so funny because Kana ate her up so much.
Sure.
And this challenge and she's doing a biggest thing.
Yeah, this is just addressed with some bananas applied to it, but it's pretty.
I don't love that it's shark truth.
Mm.
Wow.
Like the neon yellow for me is like, well, that's not banana.
Wow, you better bananas or banana yellow?
You better come for her Pantone, bitch.
You better work.
I have, this episode kind of is making me act like a bitch.
Yeah.
Is it a chirp or a burp?
It's a burp.
It's a burp.
She looks beautiful, but.
Yeah.
No.
Okay.
Heidi strawberry look.
Oh my God.
My God.
The floor.
This is wonderful.
This is amazing.
Wonderful.
She just.
Heidi.
She accentuated the impulse.
It's demolishing in this challenge.
She is awesome.
She has.
She's also truly created.
I've never seen the silhouette before.
That's what I was going to say.
The silhouette is so unique and exciting.
It's such a genius take on the prompt.
And she still looks beautiful with that cut in corset strawberry top.
Her makeup is so amazing here.
So the only thing that I don't like about it is the color of the hair.
I kind of either want it to be a deeper red or green, but I think the pink is like not
one or the other.
But it's like that's me getting so nit picky because this outfit is amazing.
It is iconic.
She deserved to be praised for it.
It is a shame that they called her safe.
Yes.
This is the perfect hairstyle for this outfit.
Yes.
Just the color.
I wish we were different.
Tea.
Okay.
We have even more looks.
We got to get.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
No, you don't be sorry, but we got to read these bitches and then the terrible judging
choices they made.
Jimbo's artichoke watercress dress.
You did not like this.
Stop adding volume to your waist.
Don't glue things on the narrowest part of your corset unless you're gluing much larger
things to the bigger parts of the corset.
Tea.
I still think it's a chirp because I guess when I saw it, I was like, there's a transformative
quality that Jimbo has where I'm like, I have never seen Jimbo look like this.
Almost like a Cameron Michaels understudy.
I was like, it was like work.
So I think it's so unflattering.
Yeah.
So I've got to burp this a little bit.
You think I just kind of bulks or?
Yeah.
And there's just, it's not like Jimbo also is like, I feel like that's my favorite thing
about her about her is the way she exaggerates the idea of this like what we think is the
shape of a beautiful woman's body.
And she's not, you know, making a statement about intentionally not doing it.
She just accidentally does not have a sickening body.
For me, it's just her strut is the only thing that distracts me.
Occasionally.
Occasionally.
Like now that it's a bad strut, she's like iconic.
But sometimes I'm like, it just, it's funny.
And maybe watching Jimbo walk like a fashion girl is like a little bit like, oh yeah, is
that Jimbo or not?
She might have sold me with a different, with like a greener or a brown lip.
Yeah.
Kahana Montress giving a bit of super hero.
So I love the fact that she made this is amazing.
She looks gorgeous.
She looks beautiful.
I am, I think, curious about what's going to happen as we all start getting sick of the
borderline superhero pop star looks.
It is.
I would say that's one of the biggest cons to this look.
It's, you know, superhero, which we've seen as, you know, as far back as all stars one,
we've seen a lot of superhero color blocking moments.
Yes.
So I saw during drag con, I saw a show of precincts that had like 30 queens on it.
It was amazing.
And there were so many sickening, incredibly talented, polished, amazing, amazing, amazing
queens that I could not distinguish from each other leaving the show because they were all
doing this like Ariana Grande do a lip pop princess genre of drag expertly, but it's just,
it's oversaturated, I think, right now in the drag world and takes away from how much
effort and expertise you put into it because we see it a lot.
Yeah.
Tea.
Tea.
Look at this.
Look, it's great.
I'll give it a light chirp.
I'm in a fully chirp, but I mean, she's doing an amazing job.
I just, um, some of the paper details look a little cheap, but it's a full chirp.
For me, James Mansfield giving.
I love this.
I love this.
Giving, am I pies cooling on the sill?
Chloris bleach men as she said.
Couldn't believe she didn't say Chlorox bleach men, but it's fine.
It's not a big deal.
I'm not, I didn't think about it all night.
Um, they all need you in their ear.
It's a chirp and it's probably her aesthetic.
It's amazing.
I love that she's taken this like 50s outfit, but then made a, it's a show midriff, which
in a really sexy way.
Yeah.
The color match on her plate is pretty amazing.
This Flintstone necklace.
Yeah.
It's been, I think she looks so good this season.
It's cool.
It's cool.
And I wonder if they'll want some differentiation on her brand or if she'll be able to give that
brand and still please the judges every week.
Well, she went into the 60s today with that hand look.
Yeah.
And I feel like that's atypical for her.
Yeah.
Tea.
Chirp.
Candy.
Okay.
Okay, Candy.
Um, like there's parts of this I like and parts of this that are like unacceptable.
Do you know?
I think she made it work.
Like she skated a bot.
We, they set her up in the episode like this was going to be the biggest like jiggly
caliente baked potato piece of shit.
Right.
Um, and it is it that it is it.
It looks good.
The skirt piece really accentuates, but I mean, it's also a science project.
Like the chest piece is a.
Board.
I mean, once again, her hair and makeup are doing heavy lifting.
I mean, and the wig.
She, she picked a good week to wear probably the most expensive wig.
Um, I mean, just with this, the crystals on the wig, it's expensive.
Yeah.
It's lunacy.
It's so, it's so crazy.
And this lip is driving me crazy.
I'm so hard for this lip.
Yeah.
It's a galaxy lip.
I will give it the lightest chirp imaginable because parts of it, wow, parts of it insane
that they, and insane that they called her to compliment her.
Right.
She was in the top essentially.
That, yeah, that is a surprise to me.
That is really great.
I am really hard to time, not just celebrating how beautiful her makeup is.
It's great, but I'm just going to scream because I won't be able to scream about this next
week.
The fact of the top wasn't, I mean, I think the top should have been Heidi Jimbokahana probably.
And that we took, we took time to talk to Lalary and Candy and tell them how great their
looks are.
I will never forgive the show.
Yes.
They were the like safest of safe skewing toward, I mean, candy safe with skewing toward good
Lalary safe skewing deeply toward maybe not so great.
True.
True.
Alexis Michelle.
Almost.
Almost.
Almost.
Yeah.
Almost.
It's just too pedestrian.
Yeah.
It's very, it's very native American.
Like I feel like you, I could see like, it just looks like she is going to like a job
interview at like a magazine, but not, not Vogue.
I do like the construction of the top.
I wonder if it could have been saved with a better bottom.
Yeah.
I just think that these silhouettes are too regular, regular girl buy at the store vibes.
Yeah.
Oh, burp.
Yeah.
It's a burp for me, unfortunately.
She looks like this.
Lalary.
I don't want to talk about this look.
I do not want to be very bad.
I'm, it's, I'm, this is the look that's making me feel the way you feel where I am.
Very angry that she was celebrated this episode.
Yeah.
It's wrong.
The wrong outfit is not good.
It's not good.
It is truly stretched over a head.
Again, like the hips are wrong for the outfit.
The hips are not right.
They're going to tell me this is like the gag of the episode.
Again, bald head.
We've seen her do this in a design challenge and like, that's not even my biggest issue.
I think it's like the praise paired with the same bald head paired with.
It's the simplest.
It is a tube.
It's a tube.
Yeah.
We're getting some sort of like tiered situation between like on the skirt, but it doesn't look
like it's like intentional in design.
It looks like it doesn't fit.
Agreed.
Burp.
Yeah.
Out of here.
I'm so sorry, Lalaery.
Again, like it's like the attitude is right.
The face is pretty.
But everything else.
Everything else.
The face is too pretty for bald.
It's like, yeah, it's glamorous and soft and gorgeous and not like a bald bitch.
I like the idea of the kind of bulky color thing, but that's, that's an idea.
That's not a look.
Darien, I can't.
I have to go.
We have to go.
Darien, like I can't talk about that look anymore and pretend like it was good.
I'm not going to let the show trick me into thinking it was good.
Darien, like no, no, no.
And I think like Ruse said, this had the potential to be good.
If the top, the story from the top had continued down into like a long pretty dress on the
bottom, just this loose skirt is not, is simply not it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And I feel like the train is, um, shows no like finesser expertise and construction.
It looks very like zip tied.
Tea, yeah, no, I don't.
Yeah.
Again, yeah, the blue skirt really cuts it up.
If it was just the silver focused with this sort of like candle drip of it all, maybe.
Yeah, it could have been great.
Ford, good enough.
I don't know.
Good enough.
It's a burp for now.
Flower bathing suit.
Um, why did she win?
I don't like this very much.
Why did she win?
Yeah.
I don't know.
Well, I mean, it's the fruit lips.
I loved, I loved the fruit loops.
And then since then we, we, we start to descend in quality as we get across her three looks.
Yeah.
Why does she win?
This is of course it with stuff on it.
And I am the most outrageously unfair Jessica Wildfan.
You'll find.
I am unfair to the other girls.
But this is a bathing suit.
Yes, I am happy that she won because of what we ended up getting from the lip sync, but
it was not deserved.
It was not deserved.
It was so weird.
I love her so much, but this is not her best look.
Her face is gorgeous and the hair is cute, but why?
Why?
Yeah.
I'm so confused.
Oh God.
That's my art.
Jesus.
I'm going to start for beauty.
I'm going to talk about this in therapy.
Coming up as my child ate all the fun, fatty and vomited on a woman is what this is.
We got a bulky waist again.
I think she needs to talk about this in therapy.
Like I literally want her therapist to hold up this picture and say, why do you think you
sabotage yourself?
Why do you think?
I'm going to talk about this in therapy.
This also has the problem.
Fit candies, RuPaul dress I thought had where it's like, why does the part that flares out
starts so low?
Make your torso looks a million miles long.
Why?
Why?
Why?
She truly looks like three different aisles at Party City.
I'm not even saying anything.
Yeah.
I want to say I think there could have been a chic way to get all of these insane materials
together in an insane way and to look chic if the proportions were all perfect and they're
just really off the mark.
Like I think the comment could be like, yeah, it's a ton of shit.
Like that's the vibe.
If it was like the most couture silhouette.
Awful.
Very bad.
But the headpiece is like synchronized swimmer.
I hate it.
Golden boot.
Why is the top, yeah, why is the top floral?
Then why is the middle like kind of have that like kindergarten carpet, that like kindergarten
carpet thing?
You know what I'm saying?
Like it's like, what is that middle panel that is a whole different story?
Flowers, then also the balloons and the shiny shit.
What?
Oh, bulky it is in the middle from the back.
She just added so much with to herself.
I literally, this is literally self harm.
This is if you're seeing the inside of a pinata, she says, bitch, I loved in last episode.
Every time Michelle sort of made a joke, one of those like jokes about the outfit, we just
went, okay.
Yeah.
I haven't like three times.
Pinata's do not like even a pinata doesn't doesn't wish this much harm on itself.
Okay.
Like I know pinata's that respect themselves more.
I know pinata's with more cohesive looks.
I know pinata's with more polish than this look.
Yeah.
Okay.
Heidi and closet.
I thought this was okay.
Heidi and closet has.
I have a hard time.
Excuse me.
I'm burping.
I usually have a hard time with peplums.
Literally and at the look.
Uh huh.
I get rock hard when I see a peplum.
Yeah.
No, I don't love them usually, but this I really, the peplum really works for me.
I've seen a couple recently where I go, oh, all right.
You can start talking to me about peplums.
Yeah, it's the least strong of her looks, but I still think the color stories.
Awesome.
The color stories.
Awesome.
Like the little glovelets work.
The hair is nice.
I guess if I'm being nitpicky, I wish I wish there was less white visible underneath the
napkins.
Sure.
I still would give it the lightest chirp.
I would give it a square chirp.
I mean, I'm not like, oh my God, it's amazing, but I do think it for something she made herself
feels very good.
I find.
Yeah.
Wow.
Let's talk about these decisions.
So now for some reason, we get, let me see if I, I want to get this correct.
Oh, so who gets called in the tops?
It's Jimbo Candy and Jimbo, Jimbo Candy, Jessica are the tops, making Darien candy and, um,
uh, uh, uh, uh, Kaasha, the possible bottoms or was it just two clear bottoms and the rest
may be tops?
I'm missing this.
Can I don't think it's a three?
Lollary was there too.
Lollary was almost a top.
It's crazy to me.
This is crazy.
I can't.
We don't eat, we can't decode this because this is just production evil, having fun at
our expense.
Yeah.
RuPaul is editing and producing race.
Yeah.
All we know is that for some reason Jessica wins, couldn't be a bigger fan of Jessica,
but not sure why she won.
Not sure why Heidi wasn't in the top.
So beautiful.
TS Madison's Cool as Hell.
Jojo Si was wonderful and helpful and sweet and untucked.
Um, but this episode infuriated me at the end.
The judges look better than almost any contestants.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Which I get maybe is like hierarchically maybe supposed to happen, but almost never does
and it's not my expectation.
Yeah.
All four of those judges are eating the girls up this week.
So obviously Darian could easily be the one to go home since she's been in the bottom
the most, but Kaasha Davis and the critiques begs, essentially does the soft.
I've made my piece with going home.
Would you have sent home Kaasha who's begging to go home or Darian who has a worst record?
I would have sent home Kaasha.
I think.
Yeah.
Yeah, I also like him wanting to see the rest of Darian's package or at least a little more
of it.
And I like for Kaasha, I'm like, well, I love your, I love your vibe and I love your amazing
voice.
And that's kind of, and I don't really want to, I don't, I don't need to see the rest
of your package.
That's fair.
Yeah.
With Darian, um, you know, I have, I would be lying if I said I want to see more of her
package, but, um, especially after that basketball dress, which again, it gives me cold sweats
at night.
Well, I want Darian to get the opportunity to show who she is and to be funny.
And I don't know that she's really like, like I want her, I want to see Darian in like
a roaster stand up challenge.
I also want to say this is so nerdy of me, but like, so Raja had not been crowned yet
when they filmed this.
Is that true?
That is a hundred percent true because they filmed this in last summer and Raja won last
winter.
So I just think it's bizarre and weird that they got an ADR line of Kahanah saying she's
a recently crowned queen.
When we know when this was filmed, she was not crowned yet.
That just annoys me.
That annoys me.
Yeah.
Why is that so why?
Why do that?
I want to know how much notice and information they get about the song that they'll be lip
syncing for because, and how much they're allowed to like bring and do because almost
every lip syncing assassin just sort of wears a great dance outfit and does a good dance
job.
They never bring tricks and gimmicks and like what Jessica is bringing.
And it seems almost like a mistake or like she didn't have all the information she needed
that Raja has teeny tiny titties for this performance.
I have the reference to make a joke out of it because I'm like, I don't know what queen
in her right mind wouldn't come to do this lip sync and only list lip sync and not have
a titty moment.
Jessica, that's why I was also like as much as Jimbo like man Jimbo.
I'm sure Jimbo wishes she won this one because she would have a great coconuts number.
Oh, yes.
When I saw Jimbo at precinct at this show, she did super power bitch.
Amazing.
And was spraying whipped cream all over her gigantic titties.
It was amazing.
I love Jimbo.
We had the honor of meeting her.
She's also a wonderful kind genius.
So this here.
This coconuts little number is it's just she steals it.
Jessica steals it immediately giving love and in all, which we love that reference.
It's now the second time she's in reference to this all star season.
Oh my God.
It's Michelle says it at the end.
She's like my face hurts from smiling so much.
And I was like, me too.
Jessica eats Raja up.
Yes.
It is so sexy.
And it's so absurd and somehow it is so sexy too.
Yeah.
From the moment she took off the front, it was over.
And I felt so bad for Raja who came here to show up and show out and just could.
There's nothing she can do.
And it was funny too with the edit kept cutting away because for whatever powers that be didn't
want an edit where a queen is sucking another queen's fake tits, you know, like they kept
cutting away.
Yeah.
And I think that would have been I think live.
I'm sure that was like so fun and such a celebration of both of them.
Which is on.
It's kind of annoying.
Yeah.
Why did not why did also why didn't Raja even ask production like can I?
I don't know.
Maybe she wanted to dance without tits that flop everywhere.
I don't know.
Um, I don't know.
It's just she's got these beautiful big hips and these tiny titties.
Yeah.
It was really fun though.
Jessica was genius.
She wins $30,000.
God bless.
And right now we can't have candy mues at the end of every episode.
Sam, I think her number 40,000 dollars.
We can't have that, which is a shame.
Flawless impression.
Thank you.
It was almost like Bowser.
Like I think my impression of her is getting closer to Bowser every day.
Just.
She should do a Bowser look.
I Oscar geniously said Wendy Cooper.
I mean, she is Wendy Cooper.
Sure.
Yeah.
They should have a month.
I wonder if they could get from Nintendo the licensing to do a Mario runway.
That would be hot.
At least a video game runway.
Why haven't they done video game the house down?
Hello.
Yes.
Bring back rock and do a video game challenge.
Yes.
That would be kind if they brought her back.
Yeah.
Rock and Sakura back on my screen.
So she we get cautious at home.
Kaasha says it's always there's always time for kindness.
Very sweet.
That got me.
Good.
It got me good.
I feel like Kaasha Davis is like my old like tech theater teacher.
Yeah.
Not any specific person.
I just feel like she is a mythical.
Yeah.
High school technical theater teacher who my love.
Same.
She's really lovable.
She's really sweet.
I hate that she gave up on herself.
But here we are.
Here we are.
We say goodbye to Mrs. Kaasha Davis.
Who's your winner for the season Nick?
Um.
Oh.
I, well I think it, world of wonders winner is Jimbo and I am obsessed with and love Jimbo
but my winner I think is starting to be Kaasha.
Kaasha.
She's amazing.
I think she'll be there at the end I think.
And what a gag it would be.
I just don't think it'll happen.
I don't think the producers would let it happen but it would be an amazing gag and like
story for Kaasha to have gotten eliminated so fast on her season and then be our next all-star
winner.
Uh huh.
It would really be like anything's possible you know.
And I think we should keep opening up the Drag Race universe or else it's going to start
to, we're, we're going to get bored.
I do like the story of James or Kahanawinning.
There's something very interesting about these queens that the fandom did not really care
too much for winning.
Having said that though I still want Heidi or Jessica to win in my heart.
Yeah.
Especially this week watching Heidi done filthy.
She was done dooky.
She was done so wrong.
It like really hurt me to be like y'all have to stop playing.
Like you, I understand you're producing a show but you have, you can't do that to a contestant.
That just makes me really upset.
And so you're of the mindset that the actual reason she was upset and untucked is that she
thought that the producing was rickory and.
I think so.
I think so.
I think she like she was like I deserve to be in the top.
She at the very least deserved to be praised for how well she did in those looks.
And the fact that they called her safe when she gave three silhouettes that were interesting,
weird, gorgeous.
It's just rude.
Amongst many frankly bad looks.
Yeah.
Some stinkers.
And then to bring Lollary up there to say Lollary we love it.
That tube is amazing.
Candy we've seen it.
We fucking love it.
Like what?
Jessica you're wearing a bathing suit and me Michelle Visage.
I've never said anything bad about a bathing suit and a design challenge.
You win.
Shut up.
It's crazy.
For an all star season to have the quantity of bad looks we've had in three episodes is
mind boggling to me.
Yeah.
It is we've had looks many many looks now that have been would have been bad on a regular
season.
Yeah.
Yeah.
What the hell is even that?
Nick, I don't know what the hell is even that, but I do know that a very gay book comes out
on May 30th and you need to remind us where to purchase it right now.

And we're all cast members on the narrative play podcast, Rood Tales of Magic.
And now we're on the head gum podcast network.
Um, but what is Rood Tales of Magic?
Oh, good question.
It's kind of like, um, oh, it's like if Bugs Bunny was the dungeon master for the cast
of Clue.
Yeah, it's like a yucky version of that show Merlin.
Oh, so it's like Rood Tales of Magic is if the Muppet Babies were tried as adults.
Oh, I think I get it.
It's like if the Bible was translated into English.
Tim, Rood Tales of Magic is like Red Wall except they aren't mice and they do have sex.
