title Sibling Watchery: RuPaul's Drag Race S18E16 "Grand Finale"

description Spoiler alert! This week on Sibling Watchery, Bob and Monét recap the RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 18 Grand Finale. They welcome a new queen into the winner’s circle, react to RuPaul’s live performance, and break down the finale looks. They question whether nods to culture have become a strategy, track Briar’s padding evolution, and Bob shares tips for cleaning pads. They call out the best look of the season, sound off on designer recreations, and have strong opinions on Darlene’s approach to fashion. They also weigh Nini’s standout performance, whether the crown is won in the finale or over the whole season, and if reveals get in the way of lip syncs. Plus, Bob has a message for Swifties and the Beyhive.

Speaker 1:
[00:05] This is Sibling Watchery, where we recap episode of RuPaul's Drag Race. Y'all, we're at the-

Speaker 2:
[00:08] Let me ask you one question. Someone, Wayne Wind asked, is there anything that would make, Bob, is there anything that would make you break your sobriety? Yeah, that one guy's ugly mom, okay?

Speaker 3:
[00:17] Oh my God.

Speaker 2:
[00:19] His ugly, if I had to look at his ugly mom any longer, that would make me break my sobriety, because of how ugly his mom is.

Speaker 1:
[00:28] Um, well, this is Sibling Watchery. This is not Sibling Roastery, where we roast the world.

Speaker 2:
[00:33] This is that one guy's ugly mom.

Speaker 1:
[00:35] Some of our rude patrons. This is Sibling Watchery, where we recap episodes of RuPaul's Drag Race Season 18. And y'all, we're at the grand finale of Season 8. What would break my sobriety? That guy's ugly mom.

Speaker 2:
[00:49] She's ugly.

Speaker 1:
[00:50] We're recapping episodes of RuPaul's Drag Race. This is the grand finale. Bob, we're at the end of the season. How do you feel at the end of the season?

Speaker 2:
[00:55] Yeah, we're gonna start off with spoiler alerts, obviously. If you are watching this, I'm assuming you've been to the Watch Drag Race and you found out, so I'm just gonna start off with a big congratulations to the newest inductee into the RuPaul's Drag Race Winner Circle, which is Mikey Meeks.

Speaker 1:
[01:10] Mikey Meeks.

Speaker 2:
[01:11] Obviously, I'm really happy that Mikey Meeks won, and big congratulations to her. I mean, the interesting thing about the finales is that there isn't, it's really mostly like a review of looks and a few numbers. There's no work room, there's no moments, there's no back and forth. It's just like, it's a showcase of where you come on your journey this season. So we should just go, I mean, before we get into the looks, we can talk about the fact that RuPaul came out and performed this number. By the way, she looks amazing.

Speaker 1:
[01:46] She looks great. But the fact that they try to trick the audience, and comments, can y'all, in your checking, I'll sign up. Do y'all think RuPaul performed that song in front of the audience that was there?

Speaker 2:
[01:56] No, I don't even try to trick, because they didn't even show a picture of the audience.

Speaker 1:
[02:00] No, but you hear the audience whooing the whole time, clapping, whoo, oh.

Speaker 2:
[02:04] What do I gotta get off the audience applause?

Speaker 1:
[02:08] But if they weren't there, like RuPaul, you can just do a music video that the audience is not sharing. That the audience is there watching him do it.

Speaker 2:
[02:16] Yeah, I mean, I don't think, I mean, maybe someone thought, but I watched, I was like, I don't think RuPaul's performance from his audience, but I mean, as we know, she asked for a performance from the audience before. I mean, she did it at the finale with Simone. She did a number of the finale with Simone in front of all those cars and stuff.

Speaker 1:
[02:34] Did she?

Speaker 2:
[02:35] Yeah, but at the finale where they were all like in cars because it was locked down. No. Yes, I think Simone won and they were like in the cars, I believe. Am I crazy?

Speaker 1:
[02:46] I don't remember that. If I did have, I don't remember that. When I tell you, oh, at all.

Speaker 2:
[02:52] I might have been making it up.

Speaker 1:
[02:53] But I thought RuPaul looked good when she was doing her no-ging section. She was like.

Speaker 2:
[03:02] No-ging down.

Speaker 1:
[03:04] Well, you know what? RuPaul can no-g. Because, y'all, RuPaul was, was RuPaul ever, I don't think he was ever in the ballroom scene. Yeah, but RuPaul was in this, he lived in New York City at the time of Ballroom. He was there in the early 90s, like late 80s.

Speaker 2:
[03:17] I don't know. Maybe.

Speaker 1:
[03:18] I don't think.

Speaker 2:
[03:19] He was.

Speaker 1:
[03:19] He was. RuPaul left Atlanta in 1980.

Speaker 2:
[03:21] I don't know if she was in the ballroom saying that.

Speaker 1:
[03:23] I don't know. Jada's season was in the parking lot, not Simone's season, they said.

Speaker 2:
[03:26] Jada. Okay.

Speaker 1:
[03:27] No, no, Jada. That's not true. They were on Zoom for Jada. What y'all talking about?

Speaker 2:
[03:30] Jada was on Zoom. That's 100% sure. Jada was definitely on Zoom.

Speaker 1:
[03:33] Yeah, she was on Zoom for sure. Anyway, whatever.

Speaker 2:
[03:36] I was thinking about Simone when I felt like it was outside.

Speaker 1:
[03:39] It was outside. I think you're right. They were on like, it was like an outside stage because her, Rosé and Gottmik, they all did their runways on like some stage. It was outside. That is correct. Jada, can you bring it up, pull up a picture? Because now that Bob is saying it, it's ringing bells for me now.

Speaker 4:
[03:53] The season 13 finale?

Speaker 1:
[03:56] Yes.

Speaker 4:
[03:56] Yeah. I also just was in contact with one of my friends who is out the season 18 live filming. They did not see RuPaul perform live.

Speaker 1:
[04:08] Girl, I know.

Speaker 2:
[04:10] Oh, 18, yeah, yeah. I mean, I feel like we pretty much confirmed that.

Speaker 1:
[04:14] Yeah. Shall we talk about these opening girls' looks?

Speaker 2:
[04:18] Let's talk about it. So we'll start off with Didi Fuego, who I think she looks really stunning. She's giving very cha-cha-cha Latina. That's crazy.

Speaker 1:
[04:28] Is this cha-cha-cha Latina?

Speaker 2:
[04:30] I mean, she got the flowers in her hair, and they're going up the dress. To me, she looks Mexican here.

Speaker 1:
[04:37] That is true. Valentina Didi here, let's call her Kenoshi, I forget what she said, Kenoshi. She said on My Thing about, and that's like a thing in Mexican culture. You're right. That is a Mexican thing.

Speaker 2:
[04:49] So she was cha-cha-cha Latina after all. She lied.

Speaker 1:
[04:53] Didi loves to be a bride. What do you mean? Does she wear bridal? She doesn't wear bridal stuff a lot.

Speaker 2:
[04:58] Maybe she does back online. Her name is, is it Didi? Like the letters D, I think it's letter D and letter D. It's not D-I-D.

Speaker 1:
[05:05] Yeah, it's the letter D, letter D. Didi Huego.

Speaker 2:
[05:09] But yeah, that's, I think she looks, yeah. Simone, please, I am obsessed with her saying, I'm not a cha-cha-cha Latina. I don't know why that is just so funny to me. Something about it just really tickles me. I don't know why it's just so funny. Also, y'all can see me on the pit stop with Bianca De Rio, the grandmama Latina. It's a really fun episode too, so y'all check it out. It's a really, really fun episode.

Speaker 1:
[05:35] Didi's eyebrow doesn't attach to her nose. What are you talking about?

Speaker 2:
[05:39] Are you talking to me?

Speaker 1:
[05:40] No, someone commented, they said how her eyebrow attaches to her nose.

Speaker 2:
[05:44] It looks like her contour could just continue into her eyebrow.

Speaker 1:
[05:47] I gotta do that a little bit, not fully, but that is kind of how you do that. Yeah, maybe. I don't know. Let's go on.

Speaker 2:
[05:57] But do you like it?

Speaker 1:
[05:58] I like it. I like her dress. Sorry, Jacob, we can go back. I like her dress. It is giving very bridal. I like this asymmetrical gathering on one side. I do like it.

Speaker 2:
[06:07] We can go on to Philly's very own first responder, Mandy Mango. Did you change the slide, Jacob, or am I crazy?

Speaker 1:
[06:17] No, she looks great. I like it.

Speaker 2:
[06:19] Wait, did it slide?

Speaker 1:
[06:21] I'm kidding.

Speaker 2:
[06:22] I was kidding. She looks fantastic. It looks like she's doing some nod to her culture, I believe.

Speaker 1:
[06:29] Yeah. If I'm not mistaken, that's the Philippines flag she's wearing, correct?

Speaker 2:
[06:37] A Filipino flag? No, a Filipino flag is red, white, and blue.

Speaker 1:
[06:40] Yeah, it's behind her. There's a flag behind her.

Speaker 2:
[06:43] Oh. How do you see behind this bitch?

Speaker 1:
[06:47] Because I watched the episode.

Speaker 2:
[06:49] I watched it too, but I guess I don't remember that part. Can I ask a question? Obviously, there's nothing wrong with nodding to your culture. I did nods to my African heritage on the show, and I did nods to my African American heritage on the show as well. But I feel like it's now really prevalent amongst people on drag race. I mean, obviously, Bibi Zahara Bernay started it off on Season 1 with a lot of nods to her culture. But I feel like it's really big now to nod to your culture on drag race.

Speaker 1:
[07:18] I think it's a reflection of the times. I think that we live in a country where we feel like everyone's culture is on attack, and everyone's culture is being maligned and marginalized, so people feel the need to express it more and be very in your face about it. And also, I think sometimes people cop to a cultural look because they feel like, oh, people won't read them. Because if you read the look, you're reading the culture, and you won't do that.

Speaker 2:
[07:41] Yeah, also, just to be clear, y'all, I obviously watched the show. I watched it with Bianca DeRio. There's a whole pit stop where I watched it, sitting there next to her. But yeah, I think it is interesting that, I think there is twofold. I think that one, yes, a lot of people are connecting to their culture as marginalized people. And I also feel like, do you think there's a part that's like, they won't say anything if, do you think that's a thing?

Speaker 1:
[08:05] I literally just said that, what do you mean? That's what I just said.

Speaker 2:
[08:09] No, that's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying. Do you really think that's a thing? By the way, they have been like, this is cultural and it's ugly. I've seen them on drag race. They always remember saying, I love that you're celebrating your culture.

Speaker 1:
[08:21] Yeah, no, I 100% think people will feel like, oh, if I do a cultural thing, they won't read me as bad or soften a little bit. Even though they have, I definitely think people will go and do that, 100%.

Speaker 2:
[08:34] But she looked absolutely stunning. This is not to take away from this because she looks absolutely beautiful. And I will say, I don't love his necklace, but I love his headpiece. Y'all know I love hair slick back into a bun. That's my motherfucking number one. I haven't done it in a while. I should go back to doing my little buns. I haven't done my blue-

Speaker 1:
[08:47] You haven't done a bun in a while.

Speaker 2:
[08:48] I haven't done it since I did that. My last bun was that Mr. Event with me when I was wearing that blue-

Speaker 1:
[08:52] Oh, yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 2:
[08:53] That blue dress. That's the last time I did one.

Speaker 1:
[08:55] Yeah, I remember that.

Speaker 2:
[08:58] Let's go on. Up next, we have the one and only Lil Miss Fall Down herself.

Speaker 1:
[09:06] Oh, my God. I like this.

Speaker 3:
[09:09] This is a cool look.

Speaker 1:
[09:10] I thought this is a cool look. I like this a lot. I like having the mask in front of her. That was her makeup and her glam. I thought Briar looked great. This is a really great look for her.

Speaker 2:
[09:19] Did her hip pads grow?

Speaker 1:
[09:22] She definitely like double padded. Like her hips, bitch, those are childbearing hips on this bitch. Right?

Speaker 2:
[09:30] Like, yeah, I feel like something like, I feel like her padding during the competition was really like on point and like so proportionate. But now it just, it's like it grew. She got new pads. And I don't know if you guys noticed, when you get new pads, they kind of like, your old pads have like, you don't realize it until you like get new. They have squished down so much over time, your dimensions start changing. And then you wash them and put them in the dryer, which by the way, don't put your pads in the dryer. Let them run. It would, they might have torn in the dryer. So I have to let mine air wash for like days at a time. But now I don't wash them anymore. Now we just spray them with alcohol and tea tree oil.

Speaker 1:
[10:07] Tea tree oil? Make it full of them pads in the washer.

Speaker 2:
[10:11] No, if you spray them with alcohol, it cleans it. It's like a de- what do you call it? It's a sanitizer. Alcohol is a sanitizer.

Speaker 1:
[10:20] You don't even sweat that much. Why do you have to wash them that much anyway?

Speaker 2:
[10:23] Spraying them and to keep them, I'm just sanitizing them. I mean, I just take them on and I just spray them when I'm done. When I'm done with my show, you know?

Speaker 1:
[10:31] I think Johnny Sex Yelder said the fall doll.

Speaker 2:
[10:36] The fall doll is wild. Her favorite season is coming up. It's Yelder is fall.

Speaker 1:
[10:44] She looks good though.

Speaker 2:
[10:44] Let's go over to the next queen. Oh, just to say, if you're watching this right now, I want you guys to know that you can, if you want to watch live with us, you can join us on our Patreon at the top tier and we allow our cool us and step dads to watch the review with us of each episode of Watchery. And maybe we'll do some extra ones in the future too. Well, we never, you never know. You said, did you say hate? Is that what you said? Hate?

Speaker 1:
[11:10] No, I love this. I thought Ciara missed, killed this. I thought it was really good. So I thought it was a nod to the Chimera, because it's the Chimera here, the Asda and the Queen Chimera. But Jadeth Thay was like, no, it's from, it's Ciara, something from Conan the Barbarian or some shit.

Speaker 2:
[11:28] You mean the Mugler?

Speaker 1:
[11:30] Or the Sorceress.

Speaker 5:
[11:31] No, Sorceress from He-Man.

Speaker 1:
[11:33] He's a, but it's the Sorceress from, I think it's a mix between the Sorceress from He-Man and the Chimera from the Queen.

Speaker 4:
[11:40] Oh, this is also Mystique's Met Gala look.

Speaker 2:
[11:43] I thought Chimera was Mugler.

Speaker 1:
[11:45] Oh, Mugler, sorry, Mugler, sorry, sorry, you're right. Wait, Mystique, like the X-Man?

Speaker 4:
[11:49] Sorry, it's not the Met Gala. An X-Man has something called the Hellfire Gala, which is the X-Man equivalent of the Met Gala.

Speaker 1:
[11:55] Yeah.

Speaker 4:
[11:56] And it's what Mystique wears, the Hellfire Gala.

Speaker 3:
[11:59] Well, pull that object up, pull that up.

Speaker 5:
[12:01] It's similar. It's similar.

Speaker 2:
[12:04] Yeah, I think she looks really nice. This is a beautiful garment. I wonder if she made it herself. Oh yeah, it does look like that. Yeah, I think she looks really, really nice. And I love this like royal blue and white color. I wear this blue a lot. I was wearing it with yellow for a long time. I was really into my blue and my like royal blue, yellow era for a hot second. This is Mr. Blue. It is very much Mr. Blue.

Speaker 1:
[12:33] No, she's not sponsored. Can I tell you, I was surprised I haven't seen that. A company sponsor girl for the... If Mr., the people that Mr., y'all got money to spend. If y'all want to advertise it, y'all pick, find out which queen mixes to the... Well, I guess you can't. You don't know that. But sponsor a girl's package, your entire package has to be Mr. Blue from beginning to end. It will cause a scene. It will cause a stir. It will be great marketing for them, advertising.

Speaker 2:
[12:58] Maybe the sun sponsored Tina Burner. That's why she was wearing all those colors that one season. I don't know. The sun probably got a lot of money. Crayton says, I just hate her lips. I'm sorry. To be honest, they're growing on me. They're growing on me.

Speaker 1:
[13:09] I did from the beginning. I hated these lips. If she just had regular fucking lips, this would have been a 10 out of 10. The lips bring it to a fucking nine for me. Like just do regular lips. We've seen them like this time. Do a fucking regular lip, girl. But I love Ciara's drag. I think she's very creative. I think her drag always looks expensive, and I think she looks great. But this fucking lip, I hate this. I hate. To quote, oh, God. Well, to quote, she will not be named. I hate, hate, hate this lip makeup.

Speaker 2:
[13:33] Are you wearing nails? I took my nails off.

Speaker 1:
[13:35] I am. I kept mine on. I was like, Ty, I'm taking it. He's like, no, keep them on. I was like, ugh. I was like, Bob The Drag, keep his on, and then I'm going to feel bad. But look, you did it.

Speaker 2:
[13:44] No, I took my nails off. Let's go with our next girly pop. Up next, we have the one Vita Von Teese star.

Speaker 1:
[13:55] When she turned that corner and those stage lights hit her, I literally gasped in my thing. I was like, this is the best she's ever looked. I think this outfit and dress and this headpiece was stunning on Vita Von Teese. I'm obsessed. I want this. This was amazing to me.

Speaker 2:
[14:12] Yeah, she looks absolutely stunning. I mean, I'm so mad that now I can't do this look because it'd just be stealing. She looks so, so, so good. I genuinely love these giant rhinestones, these huge. A lot of people just go for the small ones. I think that it's really nice that she went for these big ones. They are so metrically placed. Her makeup looks stunning. I feel like she's wearing the... I will say this. I can't do the face mask thing. Why? My face is too big. My face is spilling out of it. I don't have enough face to not have my face look like it's protruding from the mask. But this looks really good on her. This is absolutely stunning. This is the best look of the entire season, actually.

Speaker 1:
[15:00] I agree. I love this so much. The only thing I would do is... I don't know what... This is some tacky Southern shit. Why does she want a white cape? The cape should have been black.

Speaker 2:
[15:09] Someone said, can we acknowledge this is a copy of Beyoncé on the magazine cover? What magazine cover? Can we put up a jacket?

Speaker 1:
[15:14] I mean, notice that Beyoncé did something similar for her tour. But I mean...

Speaker 2:
[15:19] And I have a sneaking suspicion Beyoncé saw it. Whoever Beyoncé's designer was, saw it somewhere. Because I would say right now, in my opinion, queens can steal from the pop stars, because the pop star has been stealing from the queens maybe since day one. Maybe these pop stars have been up in these nightclubs mopping our looks, mopping our numbers, mopping our everything. So you know what? If a queen wants to borrow just a smidge from a pop star, it's just recycling back. It's like water, it's like water raining up, and then evaporating up, and then raining down, you know?

Speaker 1:
[15:49] And what is that process called?

Speaker 2:
[15:52] Evaporation precipitation. You have any algunas preguntas?

Speaker 1:
[15:56] But no, what's that entire process called? Rain, fall, evaporation, what's that called?

Speaker 2:
[16:02] I don't know, what is it called?

Speaker 1:
[16:03] I forgot too. I don't know, but I know it's called something. What is it called? It's called a water cycle. No, there's a word for it. There's one word for it. It's a long word. It's called mythosophilization or some shit.

Speaker 2:
[16:18] I don't know, but she looks stunning. This is the best look of the entire season, quite frankly.

Speaker 1:
[16:25] Yeah, I love this. This took my breath away, especially when she took the cape off. You know what it is? The stage lights make it look even more impressive. It looks like a thousand cameras are just shuddering at her. She looks incredible.

Speaker 2:
[16:37] And did Beyoncé wear this big hat? Like Beyoncé's hat on her stand.

Speaker 3:
[16:40] No, no, no.

Speaker 1:
[16:41] No, Jacob, can you pull out the picture from Beyoncé on Renaissance big diamond look? Hers was a halter, though. It was just a column gown halter. It wasn't sleeves or headpiece or cowl.

Speaker 2:
[16:55] I gotta say, to all the Swifties and Beyhive, y'all have to calm down. You are making people annoyed at your favorite pop star. Every... You have... I was like, calm down. Calm down.

Speaker 4:
[17:13] This is what I found really quickly, but you can kind of see it.

Speaker 1:
[17:17] Okay, yeah, that is a Beyoncé. That is a Beyoncé. That's the same thing. That was... That's the same thing. That is that. Okay, I thought it was the one from the Renaissance Store. Anyway, but that's beside the point. Let's go on to Mia Starr.

Speaker 2:
[17:38] This is a mess.

Speaker 3:
[17:40] Mia mess.

Speaker 1:
[17:41] It's wild.

Speaker 2:
[17:42] I don't understand what is happening. I don't know what...

Speaker 1:
[17:50] I think she's like a starry night.

Speaker 2:
[17:54] What you a starry night one time?

Speaker 1:
[17:56] What was that? Oh, yeah. The Light of Runway. The Light of Runway.

Speaker 3:
[18:00] Oh, you remembered.

Speaker 2:
[18:02] Yeah, I remember a lot of things you do. Her makeup looks really pretty, though. I do like her makeup and her eye makeup. I do think her hair should be a little bit bigger. Like, if you're going to car this with a big bag... Well, bitch, have big hair, too. You know what I mean?

Speaker 1:
[18:15] Yeah, I didn't love this. It looks a bit hodgepodge-y. Like, mixing, I think, this velvet with the spandex arms and the sequin skirt part, it was just too many, mixing too many materials. And then having this starry, strappy shoulder to hide the breastplate. I know why she did this, so why to hide the breastplate? And then this, like, sash moment, it was just a lot. It was a lot of ideas here.

Speaker 2:
[18:46] Yeah, I don't love those. We can move on to the next one.

Speaker 1:
[18:48] The boobs will look good, I agree. The titty plate does look good.

Speaker 2:
[18:51] Yeah, it's cut quite nicely.

Speaker 1:
[18:53] Yeah, but everything else is, like, ugh.

Speaker 2:
[18:56] We can move on to the next one. We now have Athena Dion La... What's that? Is this her? What's up with her hairline?

Speaker 1:
[19:04] I mean, what do you mean, what's up with it?

Speaker 2:
[19:06] It's so far forward. That's not her real hair. It's so far forward.

Speaker 1:
[19:10] No, Bob, she's wearing a wig.

Speaker 2:
[19:12] No, like, on the sides, it's like all the way...

Speaker 1:
[19:16] I think the wig is just too long. She could have stand up by pulling it back a little bit. But overall, that being said, I do like this look. I like this... This hair was long. Went down to, like, past her butt. It was a big, old, long wig. And I think for the finale, I think she showed... I think she looks nice.

Speaker 2:
[19:34] Yeah, this is a totally fine look. I'm not upset by anything. The more I look at her makeup, I'm like, her makeup is kind of wild.

Speaker 1:
[19:41] I've started this from weeks, weeks and weeks and weeks. The bottom wing is so crazy.

Speaker 2:
[19:48] Like, I think what's happening is, like, it's not following a trajectory. Like, the... I don't know.

Speaker 1:
[19:58] We just see morphine painted her. She looked beautiful.

Speaker 2:
[20:03] Morphine. You call her morphine?

Speaker 1:
[20:07] No, morphine painted her.

Speaker 2:
[20:09] I thought you called her morphine. Morphine.

Speaker 1:
[20:12] Morphine.

Speaker 2:
[20:13] Yeah, it's morphine.

Speaker 1:
[20:15] It's not morphine. It's morphine.

Speaker 2:
[20:18] Her name is Morphine?

Speaker 1:
[20:19] Yes.

Speaker 4:
[20:20] Yeah.

Speaker 2:
[20:20] I don't know if that's...

Speaker 4:
[20:22] No, that's 100% true. I'm not doing a bit.

Speaker 1:
[20:26] Morphine loved beyond.

Speaker 2:
[20:28] I like that name a lot less now. Is it spelled differently?

Speaker 5:
[20:32] No.

Speaker 2:
[20:32] No. Then the word morphine? No, it's spelled... It's just spelled like the regular word morphine.

Speaker 1:
[20:38] Yeah.

Speaker 2:
[20:39] But she pronounces it morphine.

Speaker 1:
[20:42] Yeah, morphine loved beyond.

Speaker 2:
[20:43] I don't believe y'all. Now I don't believe you. I don't believe you now. It was spelled differently and then I would have listened to you. But now that y'all are saying it's like this? No, I don't believe you anymore.

Speaker 1:
[20:56] Jay just said it too, so Jay lying too?

Speaker 5:
[20:59] No, I'm on Team Bob.

Speaker 2:
[21:01] I don't believe y'all.

Speaker 5:
[21:03] Okay.

Speaker 2:
[21:04] I think she said my name is Morphine D'Av Leon. Morphine love Dion.

Speaker 4:
[21:09] She absolutely does. Morphine like the drug.

Speaker 2:
[21:12] No, it's morphine, not morphine.

Speaker 4:
[21:15] Oh, that's a different, okay. I would say, I'd say morphine.

Speaker 2:
[21:19] Yeah, you and I are both saying morphine. Monet is saying morphine.

Speaker 4:
[21:25] Okay.

Speaker 1:
[21:25] I said morphine.

Speaker 2:
[21:27] Yes, and I'm saying morphine. You don't hear the difference? You're emphasizing fiend, I'm emphasizing more. It's morphine.

Speaker 1:
[21:36] Okay.

Speaker 2:
[21:36] Thank you. Grace put it morphine. You're saying morphine. Does anyone hear the difference of what I'm saying? Some say T.

Speaker 1:
[21:44] I really don't hear it. Maybe I'm just tired.

Speaker 4:
[21:47] You're an insane woman, girl.

Speaker 5:
[21:49] You're adding a syllable.

Speaker 1:
[21:51] Morphine.

Speaker 2:
[21:52] She's not adding a syllable. She's just emphasizing that she put the wrong and fastest and the wrong syllable. Morphine versus morphine.

Speaker 1:
[22:00] Morphine. Morphine.

Speaker 4:
[22:01] Okay, but you also say morphine love d'yond.

Speaker 1:
[22:04] Exactly.

Speaker 2:
[22:05] No, I say morphine love d'yond, not morphine love d'yond.

Speaker 4:
[22:09] Morphine love d'yond.

Speaker 2:
[22:10] Stop bobbing your wing like that.

Speaker 1:
[22:12] That's a morphine.

Speaker 3:
[22:16] Clear it up. Yeah.

Speaker 2:
[22:18] Great thing to say. Clear it up, Bob. Clear it all the way up.

Speaker 1:
[22:21] Can we move on from this bitch?

Speaker 3:
[22:22] Damn.

Speaker 2:
[22:23] Can we move on? I can't even do it.

Speaker 1:
[22:26] Okay.

Speaker 2:
[22:34] This is Wakanda for never.

Speaker 1:
[22:51] She is, she's really something. This was too, I don't know what, my eyes don't know where to even settle on this outfit.

Speaker 2:
[22:59] I am so- She used to Dermalage walk through the jewelry store, got caught off in shit. This is, mama, this is garbage.

Speaker 3:
[23:10] This is garbage.

Speaker 2:
[23:12] Bad. I don't know what's happening.

Speaker 1:
[23:15] I can't tell you what's happening, girl. I cannot tell you. I have a lot. I need a map to look in the book. I need somebody to give me a map.

Speaker 5:
[23:23] Sierra Mist helped design this.

Speaker 2:
[23:25] Yeah, Sierra Mist did her dirty, honey.

Speaker 5:
[23:26] No, but the sketch is way better. Than whatever you had made.

Speaker 2:
[23:31] Well, maybe we can see the sketch. Maybe this is, it did not come through. Someone's, Emmett Fried said, remember when y'all said Kenya was going to win?

Speaker 1:
[23:43] Girl, she couldn't even walk in this. She was walking so trepidatiously. She was like boot scooting like a centimeter at a time because her brain is still processing this look. This hair is crazy.

Speaker 2:
[23:57] Someone said Kenya tried to make it cultural so she wouldn't be red. Bitch, put someone else in my arm. I don't know what they mean. Bitch, put someone else in my arm.

Speaker 3:
[24:07] This shit ugly as hell.

Speaker 2:
[24:11] Bitch, this watch.

Speaker 1:
[24:14] Well, you know, so I thought that this was filmed. I thought it was like all, I don't know why I think everything's like all stars 10. Well, that's how the finales used to happen for all you new drag racers who will be watching the past two seasons. They, now they do this, the finale, like during the regular season before, from seasons, well, seasons eight or seven or no, seasons four to current to 14, they did them years later, years later.

Speaker 4:
[24:44] 15, 15 is the last one they did live.

Speaker 1:
[24:48] Seasons four to 15, they did the finale like month after. So the girls had time to work, get some more money, see themselves on TV, and then come back. But these girls are doing this finale as the season is, like as they take the original season. That's why we're not seeing so much growth sometimes in these finale looks.

Speaker 2:
[25:08] Someone said, the chains literally give me anxiety. This is wild. This is really wild. Someone said, did you notice, someone said, did y'all notice you had a choke run underneath all of them gold chains? There's a lot going on. There ain't no way this bitch is getting through airport security.

Speaker 4:
[25:27] Let's go on to the next look.

Speaker 2:
[25:30] All right, now we have a Discord Adams. I love this look. She looks absolutely amazing to me.

Speaker 1:
[25:36] This safety pin cape is really cool. It can be a little longer.

Speaker 2:
[25:40] The cape could have touched the ground, but when it's all covered in safety pins, I can see someone being like, I'm done.

Speaker 1:
[25:47] She should have, I don't know why this bitch refuses to put a corset on to snatch her waist. Good for her. Oh, she doesn't have a corset on. Go tighter, bitch. Why are you straight up and down? Why are you just a pole?

Speaker 2:
[25:58] Because she doesn't wear pads. Some of the girls, you can't tell the skinny girls, you can't tell them nothing.

Speaker 1:
[26:03] Skinny girls hate to see a pad coming, but I do like this outfit. I love her hair. I think her hair is really cool. And I think detox. I think this goes on to my favorite queens of season. I love her attitude, her energy and everything, but bitch, put on a pad or get a tighter corset. One of the two.

Speaker 2:
[26:18] This looks like something Lady Gaga would actually wear. Someone say Lady Gaga. It is giving very much Lady Gaga. I will say to the y'all, this way you guys, you can't believe everything you read already. I remember when she called RuPaul a nigger and then flipped the table and then hailed Hitler and then drew a swashbuck on the wall and then said Trump 2026. Like y'all can't believe everything you see on the internet, y'all.

Speaker 1:
[26:40] You know what I mean? Well, apparently there's a Maca Queen on Season 19 right now.

Speaker 3:
[26:45] Is there? I don't know.

Speaker 4:
[26:50] That's the rumor, but we don't know how true it is.

Speaker 2:
[26:54] Our next queen, Jane Don't.

Speaker 1:
[26:59] I love this. I love everything about it besides that fucking dragonfly hanging from my nose and her face. I hated that. Everything else was flawless. I love this dress. The red at the bottom, with mixing her red hair. I love everything. That fucking dragon in her mouth is driving me crazy. Did you like that?

Speaker 2:
[27:17] I agree with you. A red wig and a gold dress, I do think. I actually really like this look, but why a giant septum ring covering your mouth?

Speaker 3:
[27:26] I don't know. What's...

Speaker 2:
[27:29] What's... What's happening?

Speaker 1:
[27:33] I don't know. I do not know, but I hate...

Speaker 2:
[27:37] What's the Silence of the Lambs reference? Johnny Sexy Elder says it is a Silence of the Lambs reference, I guess?

Speaker 1:
[27:44] I get it, but why? Why Silence of the Lambs?

Speaker 2:
[27:49] I don't...

Speaker 1:
[27:49] I don't know.

Speaker 2:
[27:50] I mean, I don't know. That's her favorite movie. I don't know. I don't know. I mean, maybe it's not. Maybe the person just saying that. I don't love it, though.

Speaker 1:
[27:57] I will say this one...

Speaker 2:
[27:59] On the cover of Silence of the Lambs, there's a moth over someone's mouth.

Speaker 1:
[28:01] A moth, yeah. I know.

Speaker 2:
[28:03] Maybe she killed someone.

Speaker 1:
[28:06] Maybe.

Speaker 2:
[28:07] Maybe she says she killed the season and wore it's skin.

Speaker 1:
[28:11] I don't know. I mean, if she wore this, then it should have been like a skin gown, but I don't think... That can't be the reference. Yeah, I love everything about this. I think Jane has given a spoiler drag the entire season, so I'm not shocked by this. I just hate that fucking drag on her mouth.

Speaker 2:
[28:23] Yeah, I agree. We can move on.

Speaker 1:
[28:25] This is a finale. What part of the understanding? Take that thing off your mouth.

Speaker 2:
[28:28] This is... Jane, this is a finale. We need to see your mouth. She looks like Hei Hei.

Speaker 3:
[28:42] Like, hey, hey, if I wanna.

Speaker 1:
[28:44] You know, I like this at first. Now, I don't know if I like this headpiece thing. I like the gown from, like, the neck down, but I do not like this headpiece. Like, bitch, put on a fucking wig.

Speaker 2:
[28:56] You know, the thing about her headpieces is, at first, you like them, but you know, like, her clown headpiece, the longer you, the first look, you're like, ooh, the one that looked like balding clown hair.

Speaker 1:
[29:06] Oh, yeah.

Speaker 2:
[29:08] Like, at first, you're like, ooh, it's cute, but then the more you keep looking at it, bitch, what you got on your head? Like...

Speaker 1:
[29:13] Yeah, put a fucking wig on.

Speaker 4:
[29:16] Put a wig on.

Speaker 2:
[29:17] I don't think I'm into dresses that are completely covered in feathers. I think I made my mind up now that I'm kind of over this. This actually is, it seems like a nod to McQueen, and I'm over the McQueen birds of prey knockoffs. I don't, I'm not into, you know, I'm not into knockoffs in drag in general.

Speaker 1:
[29:41] Yeah.

Speaker 2:
[29:42] Like, I just don't think it's great. So, I don't know. But, I mean, she, I will say this is the most beautiful. Her face is, she looks so stunning, though.

Speaker 1:
[29:52] So, so stunning. I think it would be more impressive if it went, you can do this blue, this navy and white feather at the bottom, and then for the mermaid, it starts to come into something else that is not feathers. That would have been nice to have feathers, giving us another material, like a velvet or suede or something to come up into this, into the bodice of the gown. But I agree. The full feather thing, we've seen this so many times on Drag Race, and I think it's time to move on.

Speaker 2:
[30:19] Yeah. I mean, I can't, she wore one on my season during the, during the-

Speaker 1:
[30:23] I wore one on All Star 7.

Speaker 2:
[30:25] The Real Music Video. And it is that McQueen Birds of Prey thing. But anyway, but she does, but I do think she looks good, though. I'm just, I'm just a little over this. Aesthetic.

Speaker 1:
[30:37] Yeah. Wait, so someone's saying, Bob, is your view of Vita's a little different now that you know it's a recreation?

Speaker 2:
[30:44] No, it's a little different. I'm talking about like specifically, iconic fashion designer recreations, right? Like when someone's doing like, it's a McQueen blank, it's a Mugler blank, it's a Mugler blank. And I do think knowing that Vita's is a recreation, it kind of takes a little bit out of the specialness for me, to be honest. But yeah, I'm just not super into the recreations. But when it's like inspired, like I thought that Vita was like inspired by Beyonce, I didn't see the exact recreations until I saw it and I was like, oh no, that's a direct knockoff.

Speaker 1:
[31:24] I'm not that sort of creation. Let's go on to our top three.

Speaker 2:
[31:32] She's trolling, right?

Speaker 1:
[31:35] You go, because I don't have the good to say.

Speaker 2:
[31:38] I think Darlene has now reached a point where she's like, I have to intentionally dress ridiculous because it's what they expected me. She has the Puerto Rican flag on her body. She has nethers coming out of the stars. She has checkers on her piñes. She has multi-color tie dye flower power on her skirt. She's wearing a green wig. She's wearing leopard print gloves with beaded fringes and a giant green bow in the back. Part of me is like, there will come a point where people are going to stop letting you play in their faces.

Speaker 1:
[32:24] Y'all let this girl, here's my problem. Y'all let this bitch come on the show all season long and put a battery in her back, acting like she deserves to be in the Soppery. And when she shows up here looking like the clown that she is, y'all can't be mad. Cause everyone, the entire season was like, yes, Darlene, we love it. She had the most Twitter likes, the most Instagram likes, the most Facebook, everything. So y'all, y'all embolden this kind of behavior. Showing up in a finale wearing this is crazy to me. I don't care if it's your brand to me. You can be kooky, crazy, funny, kooky, whatever, and not come up here looking like a literal joke. I hate this.

Speaker 2:
[32:56] She's had actual fashion moments on the show.

Speaker 1:
[32:59] Exactly, great ones.

Speaker 2:
[33:01] I genuinely think that this, I really, really feel like she's playing in our faces. She's like, she's like, oh, you want it kooky? Baby, you're gonna get it.

Speaker 1:
[33:13] Like, is she, like, it'll be one thing if she really was like a clown queen. Like if that, like her whole brand was like, I'm a clown, that will be one thing. But she's not a clown. She's like, she went from like, I like mawdrag. Is this mawdrag? If you were the maw queen, come up, show up like Willow Pill Angle for the finale. That's mawdrag. This is not mawdrag. This is, this is a clown show. But you're not a clown.

Speaker 2:
[33:35] I think even if she did, was a clowny queen, this still wouldn't be a good look. Like, by no metric is this, in my opinion.

Speaker 1:
[33:46] I think this is absurd, like clown, clown. If she said I wasn't a clown, I wouldn't be a clown.

Speaker 2:
[33:50] But it still wouldn't be a good look. That's what I'm saying. Like, we've seen queens do clowny and look fantastic. This is, in my opinion, not a great look. It feels like she's being odd for the sake of being, like, I don't think she genuinely likes this. Maybe she does. I don't know Darlene, but I can't imagine her because I saw this one was, like, gathered. I want it.

Speaker 1:
[34:12] Kudos for Sharing said, not too much on Darlene. It's just tacky, girl. That's her thing now.

Speaker 2:
[34:17] I don't like it. I said what I said. Kudos for Sharing.

Speaker 1:
[34:21] This is still fucking hideous. I'm so mad I even had to look at this in the finale. I don't care. And you know, you know what? I'm not even getting to that. That's a whole other conversation.

Speaker 2:
[34:28] Yeah, someone pointed out Jimbo. Jimbo does clown drag, and it's really well done. Think about Jimbo and some of her beautiful, gorgeous clown looks, like a really genius thing. This look is crazy. This is crazy. It is, guys, it's bad. It's bad. You cannot, don't drink the Kool-Aid, y'all. This is a bad look. Come on, let's think critically here. This is bad. But also, you can't get mad. If her intention is to be bad, she nailed it. Like I said, with that one outfit you did in Jermaine's Ward, she said it was supposed to be ugly. Then why are you mad, bitch? You said it was supposed to be ugly. You nailed it.

Speaker 1:
[35:09] Yeah, and you know what?

Speaker 2:
[35:10] You're the winner of this week's challenge. You wanted to wear something ugly, and bitch, this shit is ugly as fuck.

Speaker 1:
[35:18] It is so fucking hideous. I can't. I haven't watched the pit stop yet. What did y'all say? What did Bianca send the pit stop?

Speaker 2:
[35:25] She didn't like it.

Speaker 1:
[35:27] She's a clown.

Speaker 2:
[35:30] Someone said this is the ultimate form of the judge's rewarding and admiring stupid. You're so stupid. I've learned RuPaul's ultimate compliment is you were born to do drag, and Michelle's ultimate compliment is you're just so stupid. You're a fucking dumb piece of shit. I like about you, you're a fucking real piece of shit, stupid, dumb ass, almost dumb as that one guy's mom. You're so-

Speaker 1:
[36:00] Can I tell you something about this that drives you crazy? I don't know why. It's a part of people who like, Bob is reading comments and he said somebody said, say the person's name.

Speaker 2:
[36:12] No, but the names are like, XY, Pip Pop, some of the names are not easy to read. So when the name is kind of like, I'll read like kudos for sharing. I'll read like Johnny Tsunami. But sometimes the name is like Danger. What is that? Dang, Dangy, or Dan George, Dan, is it Dan George Art? While I was scrolling, I couldn't-

Speaker 5:
[36:36] Dan George Art.

Speaker 2:
[36:38] Yeah, it took me a while because it's like the words are blending together. So once the words are just kind of blending, I'm like, I can't, it's too much, I can't. I'm just going to say somebody-

Speaker 1:
[36:46] Well, I don't know, but somebody friend has said, not to call back.

Speaker 2:
[36:51] What if I say one of our patrons, Sam? What if I say one of our patrons? That's a little better. Let's go on to Mikey Meeks. I genuinely love this look. I think she looks great. I love what's happening with these waves on her head. I love the shape of this skirt rising above her hips. I love this high leotard. I think she looks really good. You don't like it?

Speaker 1:
[37:17] I like this. Something about this sequin is very cheap looking to me. That's the only thing. I wish we had went with a different sequin fabric.

Speaker 2:
[37:25] I think it looks really good.

Speaker 1:
[37:28] I think you can see it's separating how it's laid on the fabric, so that's taking me out. I do love her hair and her makeup, and I love these hoops and these things coming off. I think that looks really good, but I think the fabric was a little cheapy cheap. Other than that, I like the silhouette of this.

Speaker 2:
[37:44] Grace Henderson 3164, they call back to her promo, but in a good way. Since I want me to read the whole-

Speaker 1:
[37:51] How is this? Her promo was stars. How is this her promo?

Speaker 5:
[37:56] I don't remember her promo, so I- It was like the shape of it.

Speaker 1:
[38:01] Her promo was this shape?

Speaker 5:
[38:03] No. Yeah, it was very similar. I like the body's part, the skirt, like corn husks or some shit.

Speaker 2:
[38:10] It's like one Pokemon just kept evolving. Oh yeah, it is.

Speaker 1:
[38:14] Promo.

Speaker 2:
[38:15] Yeah.

Speaker 1:
[38:15] Y'all said promo. I was thinking entrance look. I was like, wait, what? Got it. All right.

Speaker 2:
[38:21] Let's move on to our final queen, who is Nini Koko.

Speaker 1:
[38:24] Linithea Koko.

Speaker 2:
[38:27] And I do not like this look.

Speaker 1:
[38:30] Yeah, right?

Speaker 2:
[38:31] It looks like she was pulling her skirt up and was about to put on the top part, and then someone's like, bitch, we have to go now. And she's like, oh, shit, is she wearing an ammo? Like, I can tell that this skirt is technically well made, but like, why would you make it, though?

Speaker 1:
[38:46] Yeah, I don't love this skirt. And I'm sorry, y'all. This is a journey I've gone on. I hate, hate AB Stone's drag. I hate AB Stone's drag. This AB Stone on her hair looks so cheapy-cheap to me. If she would have used crystal stones, I like that better. If y'all don't know, AB Stones are aurora borealis. Every stone has a color. They have blue crystal and they have crystal AB. Siam, Siam AB. AB is like a different finish to it. And I hate that color. It doesn't look good. It looks cheap. And I do not like this look.

Speaker 3:
[39:17] I don't like the shape of the hair.

Speaker 1:
[39:19] The hair is cool, but the stones in it looks bad because of the AB.

Speaker 2:
[39:22] I don't like AB Stones, but I just don't know why she liked this skirt as many colors as she chose the ugliest version of every color. Like the weirdest red, the weirdest green, the weirdest more...

Speaker 1:
[39:33] Well, they're all muted, they're all muted. She should have went with more vibrant colors.

Speaker 2:
[39:36] Someone said it's giving someone, sorry. Narwhal by nature said it's giving fashion school final project.

Speaker 1:
[39:45] Yeah. It looks like it's being hard-seeing, creative, like trying to be RC and creative. Just girl, just do your thing.

Speaker 2:
[39:52] Maybe I'm too old school, but like, can we just... I'm trying my age. Can we just wear some regular wigs?

Speaker 1:
[40:00] I knew you're going to say that. I knew you're going to say that.

Speaker 2:
[40:03] Like, does every wig need to be a pool noodle twisted up into different shapes?

Speaker 1:
[40:09] Like, every wig?

Speaker 2:
[40:11] I knew you were going to say that. Wrapped in hair?

Speaker 1:
[40:15] I do think the glutes are cool, or the gauntlets or hand garters.

Speaker 2:
[40:21] Johnny Elder said she's competing with Darlene. Well, Darlene still won that one, I assure you.

Speaker 1:
[40:28] This is not as ugly as fucking Darlene's look.

Speaker 2:
[40:32] Someone said this dress, I have you guys know, this dress was a gift from me to Bianca Del Rio. She gave it to me on the pit stop recently. Oh, yeah, it's a cute little caftan that she bought and adjusted. I thought it was so cute.

Speaker 1:
[40:44] And the rhinestones and wig story. Sorry.

Speaker 2:
[40:48] I'm not against that. We, y'all, we need to call, maybe we need to make our, I'm going to make a list on YouTube, Bob's Drag Moratorium. And one of them will be rhinestones and wigs. We have to stop putting out the moratorium on rhinestones and wigs. We've seen it. I think I've had it. I think I've had it. We already talked about this. I love RuPaul with the House of Avalon standing behind her.

Speaker 1:
[41:12] That's the House of Juicy Couture. RuPaul still dances for my tour.

Speaker 2:
[41:18] Say we talk about RuPaul. RuPaul is almost 70 years old up here in full dragoons, up in pumps, up in hair, up in a corset, filming 18 seasons of Drag Race a year. She does three seasons of Drag Race every year. Three seasons every year. Two across the pond. Four. What's the other one? Drag Race, All Stars, UK.

Speaker 4:
[41:45] She does Drag Race, All Stars, UK and UK All Stars.

Speaker 2:
[41:48] And then she did that Global All Stars. She did five one year.

Speaker 1:
[41:52] And she did UK versus the world.

Speaker 2:
[41:55] She did like 60 season of Drag Race a year.

Speaker 4:
[41:57] UK versus the world and UK All Stars, that's what I meant.

Speaker 2:
[42:00] But yes. Let's see how you're doing at 65. Let's see if you're keeping up like that, why you okaying.

Speaker 1:
[42:06] That's easy to say. I will be.

Speaker 2:
[42:07] That's easy to say in your mid to late 30s. But let's see how you're holding up at 60, whatever RuPaul is.

Speaker 1:
[42:12] I will toots. I'm going to be killing it toots.

Speaker 2:
[42:14] We'll check back in. Hey guys, check back in on April 19th in I don't even do my 30 years. In 30 years.

Speaker 1:
[42:24] Okay, let's get into these performances. Before that, I want to remind you all that I am at the end of my spring dates in my High Hills Bad Knees Tour. I'm going to be at the Neptune Theater in Seattle and Revolution Hall in Portland. Tickets are going really fast. We're almost sold out in, I think, Portland. So make sure you get your ticket and snag me up to see me in my, I say Portland is one of my hometowns. I always do well in Portland. I love Portland. I can't wait to give y'all this material.

Speaker 2:
[42:50] I also heard that Monet is going to have a special guest at her show in Maine, San Diego, on the first show.

Speaker 1:
[42:55] Oh yes, there's a special guest coming to my San Diego show.

Speaker 2:
[42:59] It's going to be really fucking fierce. You can all come see me as well. I will be in May 12th. I'll be at the Omaha Funny Bone May 1st through 2nd, and then I'll be in Louisville, Kentucky. Then I'm going to Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, San Antonio, Texas and Charlotte, North Carolina to finish up my spring days when I'm working out my new material. You can go to seethedragqueen.com to get your tickets. Let's go on to Darlene doing cooking.

Speaker 1:
[43:32] Mine is monetxchange.com/hashtaglive.

Speaker 2:
[43:35] Let's go on to cooking with... Okay, can we quickly brainstorm what your live URL is? Monét X Live. Go to monetxlive.com.

Speaker 1:
[43:47] Why?

Speaker 2:
[43:49] monetxchange.com/live isn't as fun to type in as monetxlive.com.

Speaker 1:
[43:54] I'm not care about fun. Just go to the website.

Speaker 2:
[43:58] You know what?

Speaker 5:
[44:00] The shorter one is better.

Speaker 2:
[44:02] You know what? You know what? She said what she said. This is our website. Monet is on our website journey. We just got the website working.

Speaker 1:
[44:10] Don't say because now some faggot out here is going to steal monetxlive.com. I don't have to pay this bitch.

Speaker 2:
[44:15] You said you didn't even want it.

Speaker 1:
[44:16] I got to pay this bitch $1,000 for my website now.

Speaker 2:
[44:19] Thank you, Bob. You said you didn't even want it.

Speaker 1:
[44:22] Anyway, let's go on to Darlene's first performance. What was the name of it? I didn't write down the name of it.

Speaker 2:
[44:27] Cooking with Gas is on the screen.

Speaker 1:
[44:29] Oh yeah, Cooking with Gas. I like this, but it felt like it lacked energy. I'm like, girl, this is your swan song. This is your final moment on your season. You're the top three. And I just felt like it lacked energy. I wanted more energy. I wanted her to be big, bigger, bigger. I wanted it to feel like a final performance. And it just felt like just a regular bar number I saw.

Speaker 2:
[44:53] Well, that's when she kept bragging. Y'all haven't seen me lip sync all season. And this is what you had gave?

Speaker 1:
[44:59] Yo, they gotta be, cause you know these faggots fucking love this bitch. They're gonna be so mad at us.

Speaker 2:
[45:04] They'll be all right.

Speaker 1:
[45:07] Also, she looks like Valerie Cherish.

Speaker 2:
[45:12] What?

Speaker 1:
[45:13] When she was talking to RuPaul after a number, just talking to camera, she looked like Valerie Cherish.

Speaker 2:
[45:17] Like Lisa Kudrow?

Speaker 1:
[45:19] Yes. Y'all see that? Am I crazy?

Speaker 2:
[45:22] Maybe if I saw her with red hair, I could probably see it, but I don't see it cause you know, Valerie Cherish has more hair. I really am, she reminds me of my old directors of Frosty Flakes, first of all.

Speaker 1:
[45:34] I can see that.

Speaker 2:
[45:35] Secondly, I will say, I've always said, it might have been a reveal should be one of three things. It should be hilarious, it should be stunning, or it should be nude. And I don't think this reveal was either one of those things. Not funny, it's not nude and it's not stunning. So don't bother.

Speaker 1:
[45:48] Wait, nude?

Speaker 2:
[45:49] Yeah, like you should be like one of those, like what's her name? The girl from New Jersey, Carmen Carrera.

Speaker 1:
[45:56] Oh, like your appearance in, oh, God, I got it, got it, got it.

Speaker 2:
[45:59] Yeah, like woody but naked, but for stage, you know what I mean? Yeah, I didn't love this girl, they were a girl, she was auto-tuned with an inch of her.

Speaker 1:
[46:06] I know, RuPaul was like, and these girls, they're singing live or whatever he said. So I was like, he acting like they're gonna be, I'm sorry, y'all will never get over me saying this. They need to bring back these fucking bitches, like they did it in Season 10, where we sang our vocals live. When Asia Persuasion, not Asia, what's her name? Asia Persuasion, that was a deal or two in the drag queen. Asia O'Hara was like, turn, turn, turn, turn, turn, turn, snap out of it, give us live motherfucking vocals, please.

Speaker 2:
[46:37] All right.

Speaker 1:
[46:39] Did you ever have to do yours live on the show?

Speaker 2:
[46:41] No, they did it on Bianca's season though.

Speaker 1:
[46:44] Right, right, right, right, right, right.

Speaker 2:
[46:47] Let's go on to our next queen. We have Versatile from Mikey Meeks, winner of RuPaul's Drag Race Season 18, the latest inductee into the Drag Race Royal Court. And I think that this number, I like that she revealed something quite opulent and sparkly. It's not overly sparkly but it was that she didn't give a bald headed, that bowl was ball headed as hell.

Speaker 3:
[47:10] It was a what was ball headed?

Speaker 2:
[47:12] I had this bowl together and they were like using, it was like a long, really skinny feather bowl that I really couldn't stand looking at. But other than that, I think she did a really good job.

Speaker 1:
[47:20] Or the white one that they were using.

Speaker 2:
[47:22] Yeah.

Speaker 1:
[47:24] I mean, I wasn't bothered by that. What do you want to have, a fucking 12 fly?

Speaker 2:
[47:28] No, I would probably do one of those big tool bowls that Milk makes.

Speaker 1:
[47:34] That would be impossible. Bob, they put it between their legs when they were dancing. That would be, it would be too cumbersome.

Speaker 2:
[47:38] No, well, then change the choreography. I would rather look at you do something more interesting like across your shoulders with a nice boa than, like was the between the legs so iconic they couldn't fucking lose it?

Speaker 1:
[47:50] I don't know.

Speaker 2:
[47:50] Like was the whole number hinging on them putting the boa between their legs? Do something else with a nicer boa.

Speaker 1:
[47:56] Well, okay, look to the camera. Tell Jamal Sims that his choreography sucks then. Talk to him. Tell him that.

Speaker 2:
[48:01] I didn't live for this performance with that boa.

Speaker 1:
[48:05] Jamal's a, do you know Jamal's a patron?

Speaker 2:
[48:07] You just said you didn't like Darlene's performance. So what about that?

Speaker 1:
[48:10] I didn't say I didn't like Darlene's performance.

Speaker 2:
[48:13] Yeah, but you can lie to yourself and not to me. That being said, Meeks has a beautiful voice. I think she looks stunning. She is so pale here, though. She is, looks like a vampire.

Speaker 1:
[48:24] Her tights are, well, her tights are lighter than her bodices, you see that? She went the opposite way. Darlene goes, where's darker tights? She went lighter tights.

Speaker 2:
[48:32] But yeah, but I thought her voice, I mean, she does have a beautiful singing voice. I think she's shown that already once in the season. She has a great singing voice. I think she looks really, I think she looked really good. I think she did pretty good, actually. I think she did well.

Speaker 1:
[48:45] I said, I said that Mikey had a great number. I loved the wordplay. I thought the wordplay was very smart. I wonder how much input they had on the text. When she said, Broadway version or theater geek, I can make you come eight times a week. I thought that was very funny, really good. And when she was talking to RuPaul, saying that her baby picture was a college grad picture, again, she's quick, and I think RuPaul likes that a lot. And her dad, talking about when she was a kid, she used to watch Regis Philbin and mimic him. I was like, you sound like Regis Philbin. You look like him too.

Speaker 2:
[49:20] I think he looks like a Las Vegas magician with that loud ass jacket.

Speaker 1:
[49:26] Regis Philbin.

Speaker 2:
[49:28] She is our Miranda Cosgrove White Queen, and she is the winner.

Speaker 1:
[49:32] But her parents have a very thick, like New York, and her parents talk like this.

Speaker 2:
[49:38] Where she from?

Speaker 1:
[49:39] I don't know. This bitch is from Florida.

Speaker 2:
[49:41] Well, you know, a lot of people move to Florida from New York. It's very common.

Speaker 1:
[49:45] Who is Miranda Cosgrove? Why do you keep on saying Miranda Cosgrove? Who is that?

Speaker 2:
[49:48] Miranda Cosgrove is from I. Carlin. She's a white woman who lives Asian.

Speaker 1:
[49:53] She is a lead.

Speaker 4:
[49:54] She is partially Latina. I don't know how much. It could just be a ginger binge part.

Speaker 2:
[50:00] Well, Latina is not a race, but she's not Asian.

Speaker 1:
[50:04] Jacob, don't get him going on this Latino show.

Speaker 2:
[50:06] It's not a race. We need to talk about it. You can be Latino and be white, Alfredo. You can be Hispanic. You know all Spanish people are Hispanic. Everyone from Spain is Hispanic. You know that, right? And they're white.

Speaker 1:
[50:19] That's everyone from Spain is not white. Some of them are black.

Speaker 5:
[50:22] Technically, race isn't real either.

Speaker 2:
[50:25] All right, Jay, shut your white ass up.

Speaker 3:
[50:26] Shut your white ass up. I mean, this is my white ass.

Speaker 2:
[50:33] Let's go on to Nini Coco, who did Stimulate. This was my favorite number. I got to tell you, people are online being like, I said this is my favorite number I've seen in the finale. They're saying, no, Sasha Colby, I thought this was better. This could be at the VMAs. Like the level of, to me, if this number was at the VMAs, Dochi did this, Lady Gaga did this same thing, this would be fantastic. Kudos for sharing. Said, I'm a white Latino, Bob. I appreciate this.

Speaker 1:
[51:05] Yeah, I thought Nini killed. It was the best number of the night by far, in my opinion. The opening desk choreo was so bomb. It sounded like a Lady Gaga song. Like even like the song sounded like a Lady Gaga song. I recently had Malucian Piano. Whoa, I recently had, what's the name, Jay? Leland. Leland. Leland did Monet Talks, the episode is coming out soon. He talks about Leland hasn't worked on Drag Race for so long doing all these songs. He talked about his process on these songs. This was really good. The closing choreo was very tight, having Stimulate fornicate. It was good. It was really good. I really, really, really enjoyed it. The choreo was really good. She killed it.

Speaker 2:
[51:51] It was like Cat's Eye meets Gaga meets Dochi. It was really good. This was just fantastic. I genuinely feel like she may have won this episode, but Mikey Meeks did win the season.

Speaker 1:
[52:04] Which, then what is the point? Like, is this just a celebration?

Speaker 2:
[52:10] This is not the deciding factor. The season is the deciding factor.

Speaker 1:
[52:15] Then what is the point of this?

Speaker 5:
[52:17] It's not.

Speaker 2:
[52:18] It's to add to it. So when you get to the finale, it's not everything's deleted and now it's just this. It is your breadth of work that you've done over the course of the season.

Speaker 5:
[52:29] That's not how the, oh, we worked though. The point was you do well throughout the season and that's what gets you to the finale. The top two, three, four that make the finale are now on an even playing field. The finale is the deciding factor because if everything else counts, then it doesn't matter because might.

Speaker 1:
[52:48] It's always back against someone anyway. So what's the point?

Speaker 2:
[52:51] Well, then what's the point of doing good all season? We can just Darlene to the hallway and then.

Speaker 1:
[52:54] Because you're getting to the end. In my mind, let's say how I think about drag race. J said, you work the entire season, you win some, you lose some, you get to the finale. Once you get to the finale, we're all at base at zero and we're competing for the thing. Then why do all of this? Instead, just mic you with the season and just do a final celebration episode of everyone. Then what's the point of all of this?

Speaker 2:
[53:16] I think it's because there is a chance where you could do something. We've had this conversation a few times, where you could do something that is so remarkable that it gives you so many points that it pushes you above. This is rare. It does not happen very often, but you could do something so mind-boggling, so next level that it gives you the advantage. But for the most part, I do think that it makes sense for it to be everything you've done this season. Otherwise, this is the point of doing the whole fucking season.

Speaker 1:
[53:49] To get to the finale.

Speaker 2:
[53:51] But you could be like Darlene, just do fine.

Speaker 1:
[53:54] Exactly, but then, but...

Speaker 2:
[53:56] So you're telling me you can just do fine all season and then just be slightly better at the finale and win the whole thing?

Speaker 1:
[54:04] But that's the thing, if you're fine and mediocre the whole season, then chances are you come into the finale and you're fine and mediocre. You don't just find this gusto to be... Like if you are just a basic bitch, when it gets to the finale, you just not all of a sudden... Sorry, this sounds so weird, but in case of point, Darlene did not come to the finale and do something that she hasn't in the whole season. It's been the same thing. Miki was at the level she was all season, which was good. Nini Coco was at the level she's been all season, which is good. Which all the way, also at the end, this show did such a horrible job of painting this picture of Nini being this like stone cold bitch. And that she was like... They did such a bad job of painting that picture. They tried to bring it up again in the finale. I was like, this means nothing? Because y'all did not show us this mean, mean, nasty Nini Coco that was pushing everyone to the side. That did not come across on TV.

Speaker 2:
[54:52] Well, while I agree with you that most of the time what you do in the season is going to be emblematic of what you do at the finale. But we know for a fact that you can be relatively finer in the season and then just eat the girlies up in the finale. It makes for a particularly great TV when it does happen. It doesn't happen very often, which is why it's rare. And when it happens, it means so much in my opinion.

Speaker 1:
[55:11] But who would say Sasha has done that?

Speaker 2:
[55:13] I said it's rare.

Speaker 1:
[55:14] I didn't say it happened more than once.

Speaker 2:
[55:17] One is rare, Monet. I didn't say it happens all the time. I didn't say it happened more than once.

Speaker 5:
[55:20] Well, the people gains a finale. The message that the show is sending is the three of you are worthy to win. Who's going to come out on top?

Speaker 2:
[55:30] Well, they have to get great suspense. They can't be like, well, we know Darlene ain't going to win.

Speaker 5:
[55:33] But that's the point, there's no suspense. Because if monkey did the best in the season, there is no suspense. It doesn't exist. And the Sasha Velour thing can't happen because they don't film a year later in the theater with ample time to prepare anymore. That's not how they're doing this. So the chances of a Sasha Velour thing happening is just, it's not real.

Speaker 2:
[55:56] You never know. Listen, never say never.

Speaker 1:
[55:59] I think you're playing them girl faces like, don't worry if there's no chance of me winning and just make it like, see episode 15, we have the winner and 16 is to Bob's point, it's a celebration of everything. Everyone gets to the final three, get to do one final thing and whatever. I think that makes more sense. Then don't give me false hope because she killed it. She killed her in the final lip sync and she killed her in this number. So now what?

Speaker 2:
[56:23] The person who said rare implies more than once, you made that up. You're just making up definitions. You're just making up definitions to words. But I think that, I mean, I think she did a good job, but you're going to tell me that you think based on this performance, Nini Coco deserved to win the whole season.

Speaker 1:
[56:45] Based on not, but like what you mean like-

Speaker 2:
[56:48] Like for example, what she did in the finale, her dress wasn't better than, her interview wasn't better than Mikey's, her dress wasn't better than Mikey's. You think Nini, I think that Mikey's interview was better. You just mentioned how she was funnier, how quick she is on her feet when she was interviewing with RuPaul, Mikey Meeks and then I don't think her dress, her dress is certainly not better than Mikey Meeks. We both agree that Mikey Meeks is dressing better. Two out of the three categories that we've seen so far, Mikey has come out trying to be better.

Speaker 1:
[57:12] I thought that Nini's interview was better. I thought Nini showed a lot of personality.

Speaker 3:
[57:16] You guys showed a lot of personality about Mikey.

Speaker 2:
[57:17] You were like, Mikey's so quick. She's been boo-boo.

Speaker 1:
[57:19] I wasn't even finished giving my Nini critiques. We didn't talk about something else. I literally wrote down everything. I love how she's talking to Ru. She's talking personality and the things that they said about in the season didn't make any sense because she has a lot of personality. They need to let it go. I was literally saying that. I think in my assessment.

Speaker 2:
[57:32] And also in the final lip sync, she didn't beat Mikey in that final lip sync. That bad bit was weird. I think she did.

Speaker 1:
[57:38] That bad bit was weird.

Speaker 2:
[57:39] The bad bit was weird?

Speaker 1:
[57:39] It was weird.

Speaker 2:
[57:40] It didn't make any sense with the number. Like here's the thing. Okay. Wait, wait, wait.

Speaker 1:
[57:45] We're hopping. Let's wait till we get there.

Speaker 2:
[57:47] Well, that being said, this number was fantastic. She did a good job. This is my favorite performance I've ever seen in the finale. Literally ever.

Speaker 3:
[57:52] Okay. What?

Speaker 2:
[57:57] That was my favorite performance I've seen in the finale. It was truly my favorite moment.

Speaker 1:
[58:00] Weirdly, it is so simple. I don't know why, but in finale performances, Diabetis sticks out to me all the time. I was so impressed by it. Do you remember?

Speaker 3:
[58:08] Yeah.

Speaker 5:
[58:11] To Bob's point, the first lyrics to the Miley song are, I matched my bag to my new dress, and the bag matched her dress. So it does go with the number. It goes with the number.

Speaker 2:
[58:25] No, that's not enough. It doesn't match the theme of the song. It's the first lyric. Wait till we get to it. That's like the first lyric. Ms. Congeniality is being awarded.

Speaker 4:
[58:34] We have our own Ms. Congeniality come out on stage to present the crowd. Crystal Envy.

Speaker 2:
[58:40] So Crystal Envy looks stunning. And then the winner of Ms. Congeniality is now Jane Donne, which I kind of called. I said, I think Jane Donne might win Ms. Congeniality.

Speaker 3:
[58:49] No, you didn't.

Speaker 2:
[58:50] You said Darlene. I mean, then when... Do you watch the show, Tate Marr?

Speaker 3:
[58:54] I do.

Speaker 2:
[58:55] And then when I said how Jane Donne, how they were like mourning her loss, I was like, wow, maybe Jane Donne might actually win Ms. Congeniality. Were you there that episode?

Speaker 1:
[59:03] Okay, maybe you didn't say that. Okay.

Speaker 2:
[59:05] You didn't see me when I talk?

Speaker 3:
[59:06] Maybe you didn't say that.

Speaker 1:
[59:07] Calm down.

Speaker 2:
[59:08] You want to apologize to me?

Speaker 3:
[59:10] No.

Speaker 2:
[59:11] Okay, I only say that because you said it. The only reason I ever say that is because you said it. I don't say that for any other reason. Do you want to apologize to me? That's a direct Monet quote.

Speaker 1:
[59:20] You started saying this on the podcast.

Speaker 3:
[59:22] Are you kidding me?

Speaker 2:
[59:23] Absolutely not. You started this in real life. There's a small chance that I might have said it on the podcast first. Maybe. And also, by the way, Monet, you're the only person I say this to. I don't say this to anybody else. I got a sneaking suspicion, you say it to other people. A sneaking suspicion.

Speaker 1:
[59:42] I really don't. I never said it to Jay. I never said it to Jacob. Have I ever said it to you?

Speaker 2:
[59:47] Someone said, in coming. Man, your nerve looks fantastic. I love this wig. I love this bow in her hair.

Speaker 3:
[59:55] Wait, we didn't talk about the... Can I say?

Speaker 1:
[59:58] Jane Doe.

Speaker 3:
[60:00] Damn, Bob is running the show.

Speaker 2:
[60:03] Can I get my opinions, please? I thought that...

Speaker 1:
[60:08] I mean, I wish... I genuinely thought that I was shocked that Jane won. I thought that Darlene would win, Ms. Congeniality, and I think Jane was also shocked by her winning as well. She took out the fucking dragonfly from her mouth. Thank God. But yeah, that's nice that she used Ms. Congeniality. I was shocked, but I thought it was going to be Darlene.

Speaker 2:
[60:28] So glad you added that.

Speaker 1:
[60:31] Yeah, because it's my fucking podcast, bitch. I get to give my opinions about every fucking topic, bitch.

Speaker 3:
[60:34] You don't get to just go to...

Speaker 5:
[60:38] You got a Crystal Envy dress. You like it?

Speaker 2:
[60:40] It's nice.

Speaker 1:
[60:41] I thought it was cute. I thought it was cute. Whoa. Okay, I didn't see all these clothes. I just saw it from the widescreen. But hey, this hair is really cool.

Speaker 2:
[60:51] I don't think she needs this bendy, though.

Speaker 1:
[60:55] Why does she need it?

Speaker 2:
[60:56] Like, I don't get why she has a bendy in her forehead. I just don't get it.

Speaker 1:
[60:59] That's why people have bendys.

Speaker 2:
[61:02] Do what?

Speaker 1:
[61:02] That some people have bendys?

Speaker 2:
[61:04] Yeah, I just don't understand why the bendy... This doesn't seem to have any nod to Hindu culture in any way. And I just don't get why she's wearing a bendy. Like, what I'm saying is not crazy.

Speaker 1:
[61:15] Well, bendys are not only for Hindu... Not only Hindu culture.

Speaker 2:
[61:19] What else? Where do they come from? Where does the bendy come from? The bendy is a Hindu word.

Speaker 1:
[61:23] You have other cultures in Northern Africa. Bendys are in Northern African cultures, but I've seen this. It's not just a Hindu thing. I don't know. Maybe... I don't think it's called a bendy, what she's wearing, but to have jewelry on your forehead is not only a Hindu character, stick or trait.

Speaker 2:
[61:40] That's not what I said.

Speaker 1:
[61:45] I like this. It's... Didn't Jules Sparkle do a big gown like this? Anyway.

Speaker 2:
[61:52] Hers was kind of like coming out from the knee, I believe.

Speaker 1:
[61:56] Right, right, right. It was more like a mermaid thing. Yeah, I think this is really grand, very big. I think she looks great. His hair is very pretty. And I think... Oh yeah, there's Jules. Okay, let's get him out of the waist. Yeah, it was cool. Yeah, I think she looks great.

Speaker 2:
[62:10] It kind of comes out twice, like from the waist, and then it busts out again by the knee.

Speaker 1:
[62:14] Yeah. She looks great, though.

Speaker 2:
[62:17] Let's go on to... What's next? What do we have next, Jacob?

Speaker 1:
[62:21] The finalist, I think.

Speaker 4:
[62:22] Well, I mean, we have Miley Cyrus if we want to talk about that, but it was...

Speaker 2:
[62:25] I don't have much to say. Miley Cyrus is an icon, and she's an amazing singer and a great ally. Truly. Like, truly.

Speaker 1:
[62:30] They're giving us Life Achievement Award. Lifetime Achievement Award.

Speaker 2:
[62:33] Miley Cyrus is really, really sickening. She's, like, such a good singer, like, genuinely. If you haven't heard Miley Cyrus sing... Is it Jolene? No. Girls want to have fun. Like, her voice is just so amazing. Miley Cyrus is an icon, truly. I have nothing else to add.

Speaker 1:
[62:48] Her and Ariana, they have a cover of Don't Wake Me Up Till It's Over. It's very good.

Speaker 2:
[62:53] So let's go on to this finale performance, where apparently J is trying to justify this bag because of the first lyric.

Speaker 5:
[63:01] I didn't try to justify it. I just had nothing to do. I'm like, well, you know.

Speaker 2:
[63:06] And I'm telling you, and I lock myself to the door because the first lyric says that I'm telling you I'm not going. But what is the song about, mama? What is the song about? What is the vibe of the song, mama?

Speaker 1:
[63:19] Because of the lyric, I don't think it's a reach out of the bag. And I think, and he's just trying to be creative. Again, it's not how, it's like my first inclination to do a bag, but I thought, I think that in the limited time they have to get this done, and you're just trying to like, because they do this on set, right? They have to come with this prepared, with all your looks.

Speaker 2:
[63:36] I'm like- I don't know what you're saying is. I don't know how true that is. Like, I don't know for sure that they are filming right after. I don't know that that's actually true.

Speaker 1:
[63:44] I think that is true.

Speaker 4:
[63:45] They filmed one month after.

Speaker 2:
[63:48] So, do you want to apologize to our patrons for lying to them?

Speaker 1:
[63:52] Jacob, Jacob, Jacob, how do you know?

Speaker 4:
[63:54] Because I did my- I did research already. They filmed a month after what?

Speaker 2:
[63:57] They filmed a month after what?

Speaker 1:
[63:59] They filmed a month after what? After the-

Speaker 4:
[64:01] After the last episode. They all went home a month later.

Speaker 2:
[64:04] They came back. So, do you want to apologize to our patrons for lying to them?

Speaker 1:
[64:09] No.

Speaker 2:
[64:12] That's crazy.

Speaker 5:
[64:13] That's- I think the point was that it's less time than previously.

Speaker 2:
[64:16] That's not what she said. So, I want you to go- That's not what she said. Also, this person got her purse- looks like she got somewhere to be. Like, this person- because the purse is so- it's a big- like, it's a day- this is a day purse. This is not a night time bag. It's a mom purse. This purse is big enough to carry a laptop computer in it.

Speaker 1:
[64:43] She's carrying Beyhive formula in this purse.

Speaker 2:
[64:46] The purse is not cute. It's not giving because the size of it. Because the outfit is so cut, but she got this big ass auntie bag.

Speaker 1:
[64:54] I see that. I do see that.

Speaker 2:
[64:56] Y'all are not about to gas like me and believe in this purse ate the girlies up. That being said, I also don't think Mikey's outfit has anything to do with-

Speaker 3:
[65:06] Jacob, we will get to the point. Jacob, you're going to put in the bitch, because we're going to see it, bitch.

Speaker 2:
[65:16] Jacob, I promise you.

Speaker 3:
[65:19] Jacob, Jacob, Jacob. He personally, it was this.

Speaker 1:
[65:25] Then he put on the plain Jane. Then he cut back. Then he put on the plain Jane again.

Speaker 3:
[65:29] Then he put it inside.

Speaker 2:
[65:30] They said, bitch, we see it. Hey, you have to find some way to show what Jacob is doing in the edit, because this is...

Speaker 3:
[65:41] So, Jacob, Jay Furpay said, Jacob, I'm scurrying.

Speaker 2:
[65:46] So, if you notice that people are saying this looks very similar to playing Jay. It looks like playing Jay's outfit got eaten by moths.

Speaker 1:
[65:56] I think Jacob is looking very good. And I agree too. Mikey's outfit doesn't have anything to do with it either.

Speaker 2:
[66:03] I agree. Mikey's outfit has nothing to do with it either. But I do think that Mikey's performance was better. First of all, something about that Triple Prere went into the Spider-Man land.

Speaker 1:
[66:11] That wasn't pretty good.

Speaker 2:
[66:12] Maybe that Triple Prere went into the Spider-Man. I was like, that ate it up for me. I think that Mikey did a really good job. Mikey is a better dancer than we're giving credit for. So we're seeing Nini and Juicy as these great dancers. They are really fantastic dancers. But Mikey can move. Mikey was holding her own. I would say more than holding her own. I genuinely feel that Mikey performed this better. And I think that she... I feel like what was happening with Nini was really hinging on this bag, gag, eating the girlies up, and I don't think it did.

Speaker 1:
[66:48] No, that's not true. When she started, when she put it down, and she literally only brought it up for the puppet part, when the thing was bugging. Miley enjoyed it. And I think what... I think Nini could have showcased her dancing more, right? Bitch, I know you just did the backflip, what, two episodes ago. Bitch, give us some more acrobats. Give us another thing to like, to gag the judges. Like, I think she sold herself short in her time.

Speaker 5:
[67:10] Or does it edit the lip sync where they cut away when she's leaning and they cut to another performance of hers and it's the same move she does before she does like a back handspring. So people think she did it and they just didn't show it.

Speaker 1:
[67:22] Well, sure, she would have known that.

Speaker 2:
[67:23] Even if she did do a back handspring, it wouldn't have won the lip sync. It's not that much of a gag anymore.

Speaker 1:
[67:27] You know what I mean?

Speaker 2:
[67:27] How many times can we see, you know, like Monet said, how many times can we see Mia do her move before we're not gagged anymore? You know what I mean? How many times can we see the hands stand to the splits until we're not gagged anymore from Juicy? And how many times can we see her back handspring until we're just not gagged anymore? So it's not like that lip sync was going to, that back flip was going to seal the fucking deal. You know what I mean?

Speaker 1:
[67:47] But it could have been a back handspring into a split.

Speaker 2:
[67:52] It could have been a back handspring where she did two flips before she even landed. And then she bounced, grabbed her knees, landed on her elbows, put her fist in her mouth. It could have been that. It could have. You're right. I don't think it was. I don't think it was. Um, but I actually do. I did think that, um, I did think that she, I think she did better. I think that Mikey did a better job with the lip sync. I also, apparently someone said that RuPaul Famous doesn't like people that like don't do the words and they have someone else, like something else do it. I don't know how true that is, you know?

Speaker 1:
[68:23] These people, y'all don't know what this man like.

Speaker 2:
[68:26] I said I don't know.

Speaker 1:
[68:27] Not you, not you. I'm talking about the people who say that.

Speaker 2:
[68:30] Diamond D. Lovebug says the gags be losing girls their lip-syncs. I believe that. I really do believe that. Of all the gags we've seen in the final lip-sync, this ain't there. Of all the gags from the final lip-sync, this is at the literally probably right above Aquaria coming out looking like a Chipotle burrito. Thank you, Prince Jane. Y'all sent it up in the chat. Am I crazy? Monet act like this purse gag was the best thing she ever fucking seen in her goddamn life.

Speaker 1:
[69:02] I think that literally I did not say the best thing I have to say.

Speaker 2:
[69:06] It definitely acted like this one lyric.

Speaker 3:
[69:08] She should redo all her drag now. Everything you do got a certain first lyric.

Speaker 2:
[69:12] I said I was pumped, so at the beginning she said, oh, I got to lay on the ground and pick you up.

Speaker 5:
[69:17] But was it better than the butterflies?

Speaker 2:
[69:23] It was getting this long as we had something to get ahead happening. All right.

Speaker 1:
[69:31] Let's go. Then we find out that Mikey Meeks is the winner of RuPaul's Drag Race Season 18. I loved her line, which she said, she said, um...

Speaker 2:
[69:42] I don't remember.

Speaker 1:
[69:43] I do love it. I just didn't write it down, but it was a good line.

Speaker 3:
[69:46] Monet...

Speaker 1:
[69:49] She said, I love... Someone knows what it is. It was funny. It was, um... And let the mic... I don't remember.

Speaker 2:
[69:57] Bitch, what are you... Were you reading something?

Speaker 1:
[69:59] No, I just didn't write it down. I was reading Mikey's last line, like, Jenner Jink's monsoon season. I forgot what she said. It was good, though.

Speaker 2:
[70:06] Well, disclosure, I did not see Mikey's final thing because I watched it at the pit stop, and then they cut it off before the actual win. So I didn't know who won until tonight. So I let you know what Mikey said. What did she say?

Speaker 1:
[70:17] I didn't write it down.

Speaker 5:
[70:18] There's a longer thing, and she ended it with, like, the meeks will inherit the crown.

Speaker 1:
[70:22] Oh, yes. And the meeks will inherit... The meeks shall inherit the earth.

Speaker 2:
[70:28] Oh, that's pretty cute. Is that her monsoon season?

Speaker 1:
[70:31] I think so, yeah. It was good. It was funny.

Speaker 2:
[70:33] I gotta say, its monsoon season was a pretty iconic line to yell when you...

Speaker 1:
[70:37] What was yours?

Speaker 2:
[70:39] Take whatever you love by yourself and walk into the world purse first. And then I pulled a purse out of my dress. It was fine. I probably could have come up with something better.

Speaker 4:
[70:47] This is for my friends, my family, all of Orlando. Live fiercely, love boldly, and write it in the books, baby. The meeks shall inherit the crown.

Speaker 2:
[70:57] And what was yours, Ma?

Speaker 1:
[70:59] You know what it was.

Speaker 2:
[71:01] Soak it up?

Speaker 1:
[71:02] Soak it up.

Speaker 2:
[71:03] Soak it up. Random fact, every- Trisha- see, I'm starting to read these names.

Speaker 3:
[71:10] Trisha. What else did I say?

Speaker 2:
[71:13] What else did I say? Random fact, every queen that has won the political challenge has won the season.

Speaker 1:
[71:21] Well, okay, what if you don't have a political challenge? That's not true. Because sometimes you don't have a political challenge, Trisha, so you're a fucking liar.

Speaker 2:
[71:26] They didn't say everyone who's won- see, you don't listen when people talk. Trisha didn't say everyone who's ever won the political challenge. Everyone who won the political challenge won the season. This is what I mean when y'all be letting Monet gasp.

Speaker 1:
[71:37] That's not true.

Speaker 3:
[71:38] That's not true.

Speaker 2:
[71:40] What are you not hearing?

Speaker 1:
[71:41] Derrick Barry won the political challenge. She did not win the season.

Speaker 2:
[71:45] Yeah, but she didn't win. I really won it. She was kind of hanging on my- I won it. She was kind of like, you know, there.

Speaker 3:
[71:51] Wow.

Speaker 1:
[71:51] That's crazy.

Speaker 3:
[71:52] I really won it.

Speaker 1:
[71:54] That's crazy to say.

Speaker 2:
[71:55] I really won it. See, this is how y'all- This is how Monet does these half truths and y'all be believing this bullshit. The Monet twisted. Everyone who win didn't win it, literally. That's not what she said.

Speaker 1:
[72:05] And I just corrected myself. I said, I'm talking about Derrick Barry.

Speaker 2:
[72:09] No, I corrected you. You didn't correct- I corrected you. And on that note, they can be coming on my show, let's get on to Sibling Eventery, current eventery in just a second, honey.
