The elephant in the room.
The elephant in the room, which is the room we're in, which is no longer the little Harry

It's two days after my birthday so I'm making it my birthday party
Please welcome our guest
Sam Taggart
Oh my gosh hello thank you so much for having me
This is a true honor and a pledge
Two times
He's our third two timer
And this is historic this is huge
Okay Sam what do you think about Antony
Let's just dive in When you were like what is he guilty of it's like truly
murder he is it's not whether he killed before it's where he hid the bodies he is a full-on
murderer you can see it in his eyes this is the sixth or seventh time i've heard this and now i'm
realizing it's not just like a funny joke everyone's
making it's a belief that he's a murderer
for real this is real
this is fully real
it was an immediate like I saw him come
on screen and I was like I felt the
fear strike my heart I understand
did Gizmo your dog bark at the screen
he started barking birds birds started
hitting the windows and
I said this is it I'll say sheesh she show
no is it what is it a look in his eyes what exactly it's the smirk it's the tone there's
just like this it's still like handsomeness that's like wait a minute this is a trap yeah
and someone pointed out to me uh that the way he says Arepa, and I didn't notice this, but
the way he says Arepa, I don't know exactly how he said it.
So this is still some work that I have to do.
And Arepa is the right way that you're supposed to say it?
Like if we're going to work with Spanish pronunciation.
His language is very complicated.
It is absolutely complicated.
I believe Arepa is the Spanish way to pronounce it.
Okay.
Crazy thing to be on record for i think he may
have pronounced it like arepa arepe like some insane way to pronounce it some way that he
colonized the language i'm willing to look past the mispronunciation i like i read your your
article today thank you stunning writing the prose was just touching wow but you know i couldn't help
but disagree with everything you thought.
Everything I thought?
Yes.
Okay.
Did you agree with anything I thought?
All of it.
Thank you.
I knew what I was walking into today.
I knew the way the tides would turn.
And I will say this.
I refuse to be bullied or silenced.
Wow.
Us, hashtag free Antony.
We are a minority in this country.
And this is the year of minorities
being heard we're here we love anthony listen to us free anthony hashtag free anthony to me it's
like i i truly was just like who cast him like what what geniuses honey if you look at his
fucking imdb page it's full of read d list roles like He was an actor. D-list roles. I would kill for those credits.
The blacklist, honey?
The blacklist.
I'm saying under fives, he's at my level, our level, all of our levels.
Listen to this stupid bitch.
Listen to this privileged bitch.
And I'm not traipsing around Georgia being like, what's a thirst trap?
Oh, look at this.
It's a grapefruit.
Did he not know what a thirst trap was?
I think so.
I don't remember that.
Don't cast him then.
Like, it's insane.
I think it's genius.
I think he obviously has us talking.
He has us talking.
And you know the last person who had us talking this way became president of the United States.
I thought you were going to say Omarosa.
It's awful.
He's bringing down the dialogue to a level where it shouldn't
be. He's
shitting on queer
for the straight guy's
legacy. Were you a fan?
You know, slightly.
This TV show
used to be the highest
gay makeover show in the
land. And now
it's disgrace.
Go off, queen.
Go off, queen.
Oh, my God.
Fine.
What's the gold standard?
Property Brothers?
I'm not familiar.
You don't know Property Brothers?
The incestual twins?
Yeah, they're twins.
I'm familiar with the concept.
I'm just saying, like, I'm coming into this as, like, you know, not super familiar with makeover shows in general but you know what you're feeling exactly and i i love the other four love
them and love you know what at the end of the day love anthony fellow canadian love him but this is
a question that i have we know that he's a good person right okay good because now it's getting
to the point where like people are like we hate him and then you never know what these people on the twitter on the instagram what is
what is these people mean people who comment people who comment oh like you don't comment
i don't comment oh like you don't comment although i did i will cop to this i will cop to this
i did send tan a message oh i said what tan got on his insta story and was
discussing how he was getting a lot of kind of crazy dms about how people were disappointed that
they went on megan kelly's show oh they were like why did you go on megan kelly's show and so he
took to insta story and he was like hi guys a lot of you are DMing asking why we did Megyn Kelly.
It was to reach an audience. It's not about like whose show it is.
It's about the audience that we can reach.
And our show is in a rare position to do that.
And then he goes, and I just also want to say that a lot of what you guys are saying is absolutely disgusting.
And so I really wanted to like address that because it's really gross and nobody ever deserves to be talked about this way.
I love it.
And I commented, I was like, thank you for doing that.
That was good.
I was like, you turned it.
That is a little period that any that that that's the thing that you have to end on for
every kind of statement, like, you know, thing like that, where you're just like, also, by
the way, this is crazy.
How could you ever say that?
Yeah.
I hope people can find the distinction between lovingly talking about
something because you're obsessed with it.
And it's a gen genuinely a good thing and generally a good thing in your
life.
And like hatred.
So Anthony is a good person,
but Sam,
what's the over and under on him being his actual serial killer?
He's like,
see that would fall under bad person for me personally.
I don't know.
I mean,
we don't know.
Maybe he's doing like a Dexter thing where he's like killing only
criminals. Like he definitely has the thirst for blood. And like, I don't like i mean we don't know maybe he's doing like a dexter thing where he's like killing only criminals like he definitely has the thirst for blood and like i don't like on a base
level think the thirst for blood is like a bad thing how you process that absolutely absolutely
who's someone with a thirst for blood that's great tanya harding tanya omorosa
and great i don't know is she great let's talk about oh let's talk about ms marosa okay ms
oh wow um we don't we don't actually have to have a conversation about this omarosa though
is spilling all the tea she's spilling all the tea is she is she changing in your public
no she's awful okay good but again just checking on the temperature she's doing a slight service
and it barely balances out all the horrible things yeah all of that like when people are like actually i made a mistake it's like you knew it was obvious
before it wasn't some trick it was plain also i just want to say and no i'm gonna say this
i don't think so honey okay yeah wow that's great to know there's that passion in the room though
that is and i stopped myself and i would i'm going to organize my thoughts a little bit more.
That's so cool.
It's so cool.
Like watching him articulate that point.
Yeah.
I mean,
taught me about language.
Thank you.
Really?
Probably is.
Yeah,
absolutely.
I'm sure Bowen's right.
I'm,
I would never question Bowen when it comes to languages.
Thank you.
So many. He knows so many he knows so
many sam i know but a one and to think that english is his third language crazy yeah it is
it's true i'm just accepting that i'm doing do you think that's the most amazing thing about you
yes yes absolutely but you know what i was just talking to someone at work about this
uh and she speaks fluent french and um every day and you're like same same same same same same no i'm i am copying to just not
actually knowing my french anymore and i i need to get better at it so if anyone wants to help me
immerse um you know let me know if even if it was anthony who knows some of his you know french
canadian well there you go i don't know that could be what makes you guys best friends oh my god oh that'd be gorgeous i think you guys would really bond
yeah over him teaching you french that would be nice and maybe you could teach him how to cook
what if it's a win a date with tad hamilton scenario which is often a scenario that i think
about where anthony sees you and falls in love with you. What? Do you keep your take from now or do you go along for the ride like a magic carpet?
I think in order to make the narrative more compelling
and to have conflict there,
I need to resist his advances.
Like Kate Bosworth.
Exactly.
And I need to be like,
no, Anthony, I wrote,
I've written about how much I dislike you.
I could never, this could never work.
This actually is a good rom-com. I could never, this can never work.
And this actually is a good rom.
This is good.
This is a good rom.
This is a modern right now.
Wait,
has this been done?
Like reviewer fucking hate.
Someone meets that person.
And is that sort of like you got male ish? I don't know.
It's so familiar.
It's so familiar.
Yeah,
it's,
it's,
it sounds familiar,
but you know what?
That's always a good idea when it seems familiar. Yes. But then you find out no one's done it yes yes yes and so um yeah third act you know
yeah what happens um instead of an airport chase it's it's um a drone dock chase and i'm about to
board a drone that's amazing that's really's really cool. That really makes it current. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So anyway.
Oh my God.
Wait, who's casting it?
Who's casting it?
Oh my God,
I can't do the work.
You guys do it.
Oh my God.
Who would I want to see
be funny, you know?
Because that movie
is going to be really,
also have really funny moments.
Oh my God.
Like her getting off the drone
is going to be
such a funny moment.
Oh my God, Sandra Bullock.
Oh, okay,
so this is not based on me
and... No, I think Sandra Bullock could play you. It should be straight., Sandra Bullock. Oh, okay, so this is not based on me.
No, I think Sandra Bullock could play you.
It should be straight.
Yeah.
It should be straight, absolutely,
because that way it's like, you know.
Well, people don't like watching me. I know.
That's my concern.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's my concern.
I definitely would love for you to play yourself.
I know, but I think Sandra Bullock would just,
I think people would want to see it.
She would be so fun.
She'd be so fun coming off the drone.
That scene I just pitched.
Imagine it. She'd be so fun. So fun. so fun coming off the drone. That scene I just pitched. Imagine it.
She'd be so fun.
I would want to cast Antony as himself,
but he doesn't have much experience with anything over five lines,
so I don't know.
I think we take the risk with Antony.
You gotta, I mean, those people that are gonna see it,
they're gonna see the bloodlust,
and it's not that I'd have a problem with that.
It's just like they will kind of not buy it
it's very polarizing
how would it do overseas how would it do internationally
you have to think about that
you have to think about that
if you think about that that's like where they make their money
absolutely something
every Hollywood boardroom
everyone always brings up China now
this is true every action movie
you have to have a car chase in South Korea
that ends in a gunfight.
Mm-hmm.
You have to.
Yes.
You have to have that.
You have to.
Also, that's a Black Panther reference.
I also,
not a spoiler alert,
I still love how in Black Panther,
even though some of it
takes place in South Korea,
the Asian people,
the Asian characters
are still relegated
to just being like fish women,
like fish sales people.
Fish,
not fish women
in the real sense because we can believe that
in the world but they are
women who sell fish
damn it anyway well and she's a
bouncer and she's a bouncer and
fine she like is cool with Andy circus
fish women I'm gonna just
go ahead and say front runner for title
of that okay so far they're front
runner because every after every episode we kind of like have a moment where we disagree about the title of F. Okay, fine. Fish Women is so far their frontrunner because after every episode,
we kind of have a moment where we disagree
about the title of F.
So far, just want to check in with everyone, Fish Women.
Or Arepa.
Or Arepa.
Yes, yes.
Sam, why don't you tell us a little bit about Club Comic?
Yes, it's what we're gagged for.
So Club Comic is this show.
So I, you know, a couple of years ago,
I made this track called Xmas song we love it was a club
track where i speak because i famously can't sing so you know i spoke over a techno beat and this is
um sort of an exploration into that world again um with um you know a fuller concept of being a
club party pop star and making a bunch
of tracks. I love that.
It's a throwback to
like, you know, Michael
Musto. It's like
it's a little party monster
but modernized
with a comedic bent
infused into stand-up. Is this an
accurate description? I think that's a very accurate description.
It's trying to find that mark
between Paris Hilton's drunk text
and LCD sound systems losing my edge.
Okay, that's beautiful.
Okay, that's amazing.
That's very visual.
And here's the thing, though.
Sam knows rhythm,
and this is what separates Sam from,
let's say,
a Countess Luanne doing
Chic C'est La Vie.
It's that Sam has an understanding of rhythm because he is a drummer
this is true this is fact i didn't know you were a drummer you didn't no for my bulging arm but
you're not walking around drumming that's true you're not going out to the clubs drumming i don't
advertise as such yeah you advertise as mostly uh comic and friend yes um but drumming have you been doing that your whole life uh no i
started in college uh picked up the self-taught yeah we had a music room because he knows rhythm
because i knew internally a natural it was a natural fit and i would play with my friends
and then i moved to new york and played in a couple of bands for a little bit yeah and it was very fun yes of course any interest in
revisiting that it sort of is sort of i sort of am yeah but the music scene is like way more
serious and i am not yeah i'm good at that what is the music scene anyway anymore i don't know i
actually am so disconnected honestly at this point, at this point, I am also extremely disconnected.
Well, I mean, I guess like, and also how you get started in the music industry.
That's so bizarre.
Yeah.
Like, at NYU, they had that really weird Clive Davis recorded music, like, concentration.
Oh.
It was like a school.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like Clive Davis.
And you, I guess, could learn to be a pop star.
Oh, my God.
Is this real?
Yeah. I mean, like, people went there. Did anyone get Davis. And you, I guess, could learn to be a pop star. Oh, my God. Is this real? Yeah, I mean, like...
Did anyone get paid from it?
Somebody was in it.
They're not coming to my head right now, but...
Clive Davis, really?
Is that...
It's...
Maggie Rogers.
Maggie Rogers.
Yeah, Maggie Rogers.
Oh, my God.
Okay.
Have you heard Maggie Rogers?
Yes.
Oh, my God.
And the thing is, she wasn't even the one I was thinking about.
I'm still not landing on this other one, but I know that some...
Oh.
It's like a Chantel type... Oh,
no.
It's like an R&B singer. I'm just not landing on
one of those. Do they teach the
students at the Clive Davis fucking
thing how to, you know,
make themselves more palatable to a wide audience
like they did Whitney?
I think they do teach
branding.
By the way,
my friend Kia was in it.
Kia Victoria was in it.
Oh, Kia was in it.
Yeah, now she's like,
she's got deals.
She's got deals.
I do want to say,
everyone should read
this New York Times piece
about how Clive Davis
destroyed Whitney.
Absolutely.
I'm extremely anti-Clive Davis.
Wait, I haven't heard about this.
Oh, Clive Davis is a monster.
Total monster. Well, there was the documentary about this. Oh, Clive Davis is a monster. He... Total monster.
Well, there was the documentary about Whitney,
about how...
Which basically said, you know,
she left, lived her life closeted sexually.
Whether she was bisexual or a lesbian is up for debate,
but she was in a long relationship with, like,
this woman that was the love of her life.
Robin.
Robin.
Yes.
And it was extremely hidden from the public eye.
And most of that had to do with two people,
which was her mother, who was very religious.
Very controlling.
Sissy.
And very controlling.
And Clive, who was like focused on making her
the biggest pop diva in the world.
Yes.
And you just couldn't be in a same-sex relationship
and be that.
And so Clive Davis, who we find out later on,
is himself closeted. Is himself closeted. Wow. And so Clive Davis, who we find out later on, is himself closeted.
Is himself closeted.
Wow.
And he just came out, I mean, a few years ago,
and like, here we go.
So think about that.
Think about someone who stays closeted sexually
for 85 years.
Like, that's who we're dealing with here.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So that's how little he cared about the artist.
He didn't care about himself.
So like, he really kind of like fucked whitney up i
think that he knew i don't this is like alleged but it was pretty common knowledge that she was
doing drugs etc also he had like a big public fight with kelly clarkson oh really there was
an entire chapter of his book that was like she sucks to work with not sure if she would have made
it in the um music industry without american idol she was a cry baby
over songs that i picked for her and and made her a huge star she didn't want to sing them her
instincts were always wrong i was always right nothing she says is true and so she comes out
with a statement and she's like no actually fuck this i'm not gonna lie down and take this he's
lying he's misremembering incidents here's specifically what happened and then she wrote like about specific incidents and mistakes that he's making
in his book oh my god so she like fully went up against him good for her and then i think a lot
of people like really respect her for that because i think he has done this with a lot of artists
over time i think people understand that what she's doing is speaking truth to power in a real way yes and i think that's why she's so supported in the music industry because people know she's a
fucking great singer and she speaks up for what's right like kelly clarson is an icon
and you know what you know i have shit talked to her in the past and that's actually why i did this
to say fuck you you know what i'm gonna continue to shit talk her in the future because it's brave fun it is it is it's very fun she's it's very fun to make fun of her
i sort of did on the last episode you did yeah well i was saying that like as a 16 year old like
it's hard to hide you're gay when you're like my favorite singer is kelly clarkson because
people aren't going to be like oh he likes you like britney spears like he wants to fuck you
can fake less hard,
less easy to get away with that when your favorite singer is Kelly Clarkson
publicly at 16.
At the time, though.
She could get away with that.
A little bit.
One time my best friend at the time said,
I just wish she showed more skin.
Wow.
And like the gay man in me
like shivered when that happened.
I was like, I hate this.
To me, honestly,
that reads more like something
a gay man would say. today current my yes yes we become our bullies we become our
bullies rule number 48 of culture is gay men become our bullies and we dress up as them yes
yes and treat everyone like garbage like every day is like straight boy Halloween.
We're always dressing up.
It is.
It is.
Okay, Sam, you've written some new materials, new songs, new materials.
I have six, maybe seven new tracks.
Okay.
Yes, yes, yes.
I've worked with a couple of producers.
Come on, produce.
I'm so excited for the show.
Me too.
I'm really excited.
And there's going to be a lot of mesh.
Yeah. I think we were going to say math.
Strongest out of choice.
Yeah.
It's like a throwback to 90s culture.
I really love the photos and the images.
I think it's great.
I also think it's genius to have you spell out the words in the title.
His body is contorted to spell the letters.
It's amazing.
He showed me an early rough raw photo of it did
you get it because i did because you know what i said i go this is this is so cool this is like
was and i didn't even ask this is i didn't even say this is like i said are you referencing
rupaul's viva glam campaign for mac in the 90s and the answer was yes 100 percent wow deeply yes
but that was uh that was sisters weekend's idea fully they came
up with the design and they shot the photos and i saw you the day that the same day no no the day
after you shot because you still had silver paint on your body yeah i painted my entire body silver
and it's there's still some in my ears that's it's nasty you have to you must take care of that guys take care of yourself sam is famously
a stinker which means he this is true i was wondering if this would come up today because
i don't think it did come up on the first time it did not come up it did not come up sam is a
famous stinker which means that he is um let's say very sparing about just personal hygiene i
would say is that a minimalist he's minimalist there you go when it comes to social is that a fear of products or a fear of conforming to hygiene i think it's a little bit
of both okay okay okay because it's like one it's my own you know special brand yes yes yes people
know when i'm coming and people and also like once you start like where do you stop oh i'm worried about the slippery
slope aspect of taking care of myself what will your fragrance be called if you could just give
everyone like what your scent is like what your vibe is like what's the fragrance how do you brand
it i feel like it would be called like like i think it's salty salty i think it's called stinker crust prep
oh my god honestly maybe that's the one
no my personal brand is uh crust prep because i was like if you saw a photo you'd be like he's
clean yeah yep 100 oh my god that is privilege that is looking clean but being crusty bitch
mine would be called beachy but you wouldn't know if it would be bitchy or literally beachy
like the long island okay that's fun that's fun you have to say it like that but when what's your
mine would be called um thesaurus oh yeah oh because there's something else you could get
that would be a little bit better.
Yeah.
Because there's something else you can get.
That'd be a little bit better of a descriptor, more specific.
But also sort of off.
Sort of off the mark.
Like, that's not the one, and you'll keep coming back to me.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

On
Thanksgiving Day, 1999,
a five-year-old boy floated
alone in the ocean.
He had lost his mother, trying
to reach Florida from Cuba.
He looked like a little angel. I mean, he
looked so fresh. And his name,
Elian Gonzalez, will make headlines everywhere.
Elian Gonzalez.
Elian.
Elian.
Elian.
Elian.
Elian.
Elian Gonzalez.
At the heart of the story is a young boy and the question of who he belongs with.
His father in Cuba.
Mr. Gonzalez wanted to go home and he wanted to take his son with him.
Or his relatives in Miami.
Imagine that your mother died trying to get you to freedom.
At the heart of it all is still this painful family separation.
Something that as a Cuban, I know all too well.
Listen to Chess Peace, the Elian Gonzalez story,
as part of the My Cultura podcast network available on the
iHeartRadio app, Apple
Podcasts, or wherever you get
your podcasts. Now, I
want to talk about... It could be a
good dinosaur, too. It could be a great dinosaur.
A thesaurus. Oh, my
God. I think I saw a thesaurus in
Jurassic World 3, or 2.
Oh, my God. Yes.
Sam. That's like a popsicle stick joke for a 10-year-old. Jurassic World 3 or 2. Oh my god.
That's like a popsicle stick joke for a 10-year-old.
Hold on, wait.
Thesaurus emerges as a contender
for title.
Thesaurus emerges.
It's also in the race.
Ooh, baby. You know what?
Let me just pull back a little.
I'm loving the vibe of the new space.
Me too.
It's very casual in a good way i do i sorry i know we've like already ganged up on you on the
anthony that's fine you know what by all means literally my haters make me stronger kisses to
my critics oh like okay never mind it's like black panther suit you know like wow exactly yeah but um
when i walked in i was like gorgeous when I walked in, I was like, gorgeous.
When Bowen walked in, he was like, stunning.
And the first thing he said when you walked in was, needs work.
Yeah, needs work.
Now it's a monster.
I'm a bitch.
I'm a famous bitch.
Oh, my God.
That's why I look up to Adam Rippon.
This is what I think about Adam Rippon.
Is he a famous bitch?
Here we go.
This is what I think about.
Yes, he's a famous bitch.
He calls himself a bitch.
But like, he's like, bitch, like, winky.
Like, I'm not really.
I think deeply there is someone there. is what i've been saying that is someone who knows where he wants to sit in a restaurant like he walks in he says we want to sit outside by the
water and if there is no water you fucking dig a hole and put water in it and you get a little like
adam ripon wants to sit next to the water i like do not see that i see more like he's
trying to be like i think he's trying so hard to be like hashtag relatable gay that's it that's it
and that like it's like he's doing like just enough bitchy to be like but you don't think
who he really is is like someone who wants it absolutely he's probably like he would be like a monster to the help but
you know his whole thing
in a fun way in a fun mainstream way
that's debatable because I feel
I was like
you know what Adam I'm
approaching Adam the same way I'm approaching Anthony which is
coming from a place of love and
acceptance but we support the
moment that I disengaged from
I remember this moment Sam remembers this moment no you don't i remember this so distinctly it was raining yeah
it was raining i when when fucking adam did that press conference where he was like i'm still
getting used to being like america's sweetheart i was like fuck you i love it i thought he's
unapologetic i thought you were gonna like i'll actually like that part that's when i was like, fuck you, man. I love it. He's unapologetic.
I thought you were going to say, like, I actually like that part.
That's when I was like, I'm in.
What I'm not in is, like, the part I thought you were going to bring this up.
They were like, on a scale of Reese.
Reese Witherspoon to Elmo, how excited are you?
And he goes, Meryl Streep.
I didn't get that.
That didn't read for me.
That was a weak moment for him because I was like, that wasn't the answer.
He was glitching.
He was totally glitching.
He gay glitched and spit out
Meryl Streep because and then the
reporter was like that doesn't really
make sense no no and then he goes and then
like the reporter's like okay and then he
goes if that makes sense and then the reporter's
like I don't think it does
wait who's that queen she was
she I loved her I was like
get her I escaped it
we need her as a guest I mean look, look, Adam's great, and he does an insane workout.
He is representing bitches, not LGBT.
LGBT community is confused that he's representing them.
Now he's representing bitches.
Okay, which is another oppressed minority.
Absolutely.
It's time.
We're here.
Guy Branum has been chastising me over text being like,
why are you on board with him? He's representing all representing all of us he wants to we haven't been seen in the past
he's he's showing everybody what it's like to be seen blah blah blah which i sort of get but then
he sent me a screenshot first of all of like a lewis vertel tweet and i was like okay what and
then it was an adam rapon tweet it was too like like you're shady i know i'm afraid to speak on this subject no no it was fine it was just like i was like what wait what am i then it was an Adam Rippon tweet. It was too like, like, You're shady. I know, I'm afraid to speak on this subject.
No, no, no,
it was fine.
It was just like,
I was like,
wait, what am I?
No, it was just a moment of like,
wait, what am I reading?
But it was like,
Adam quote tweeting someone
who tweeted at him,
who even is Adam Rippon.
And then Adam Rippon quote tweeted that
to say,
I don't know who isn't.
And I'm like,
that's also something
that doesn't make sense.
Are we thinking he might
not be with it?
He might not get it?
He might be a little bit of an Antony.
No, Antony gets
it deeply. Antony has a great personality.
He's fun. He gets it. He gets the joke.
Fine, fine, fine.
No one with a great personality wears
two Strokes t-shirts in a season of eight episodes.
Like, how did Wardrobe...
I think that they do.
Wardrobe should have been like, wait a minute.
Wait a minute, Anthony.
You have another one of this that you wore on Tuesday.
You don't think Wardrobe dressed him themselves?
I don't know.
Who knows?
Use your thinking, Catbo.
You've been on sets.
You famously look as much as Anthony. You've been on sets. You famously as much as Anthony.
You've been on sets.
You bring your own shit.
Not always.
Wow.
Most of the time, honey.
No, honey.
Okay.
They fit you.
They fit me.
They ever keep you ever keep the clothes.
No, I'm not.
Who am I?
Sarah Jessica.
Shout out to Sarah.
Shout out to Sarah.
I wish I think about that.
I thought about that.
Does Sarah keep all the clothes
from Carrie Bradshaw?
There's a legend that she kept
a lot of the clothes
from Sex and the City.
And I want to get
that's aspirational.
Well, no one can wear them
like SJP.
Oh my God, no one.
Stunning.
We love.
We love.
And that's a callback
to our first episode
which was Sex and the City themed.
Yes.
Which is the one we did.
It was called
Sex, the City,
and Sex and the City.
Which is like a Samantha-ism, I feel yes yes it's close sam how are you dealing with this with this this satc news
oh the the falling off control drama god i mean it's i mean team sjp always always it's like clear that
a little off the rails
have you seen that YouTube video of her like in her husband
like making music in their apartment
I love it
that might be all you need to see
I don't know
that like disqualifies her from some like job
no way no way I love that video
see that video to me
she is an artist
and people forget that like what she did with that video for me. Honestly, she is an artist. She's an artist.
And people forget that what she did with that part,
Kim Cattrall is incredible.
That's the thing that sucks about the whole thing is
you don't want it to get to a point where it's like
someone takes sides and then it's like,
fuck the other one for good
because people do that with women so much.
But here's a take I have is
she's grieving.
You know what I mean?
It's hard.
Her brother fucking died.
I think emotionally she was dealing with the SJP drama in the media.
I think they both were thinking about it a lot.
And then this fucking came out of nowhere.
Yeah, and it's like, I don't want to talk about this anymore,
so I'm going to do something crazy.
Like screenshot a message and post it.
It was nuts.
But you understand where that's
coming from. I think there's sympathy
on both sides, absolutely.
Not everyone gets along.
And I'm a bitch for starting this conversation
and being like, Sam, what do you think?
I'm a bitch for entertaining the idea
of doing this conversation.
No, because it is fun to be like,
it's like with the Anthony thing.
It's fun to bitchily take a strong side at the end of the day like i have love for both of them because they
both like are fucking awesome i always say sjp underrated actress yes very good actress very
talented i started divorce last week oh how was it so good i had to stop after like four reps because me and me and misha got they
like put us in like it's dressed us out oh no seriously truly we just like tensed up and like
we just started bickering it's intense like i actually started watching it at the end of henry
and i's relationship too and it made me very in my head i was like oh my god there's a lot of it
it connects it's like whoa it's shit. This is real. And you know,
I wasn't really a Thomas Hayden church fan.
I've never,
I've never connected.
Yeah.
But this,
like he plays it in such a specific way that he really does.
Like you,
you buy it.
Like,
I don't know.
Thomas Hayden church.
He's got a style that's,
I think maybe in the wrong movie,
like you don't buy,
but like in this show,
I'm really feeling it.
The chemistry between them is believable.
She's got some genuinely funny comedic moments.
Yes.
Even in the pilot,
the first scene where she like fucking flips him the bird as he's walking away.
I'm like,
whoa.
Yeah.
So good.
But there was the last scene that she has in the first season.
Um,
Oh,
I guess I don't want to ruin it for you.
That's fine.
Ah,
I don't want to say,
okay,
it's good.
She just has a great moment at the end when you're like sarah jessica parker for life for life
wow sam yes will you shoot a music video for one of the tracks for a club comic because you got to
be visual i mean i know these days you have to be visual if you want to keep up. Absolutely. You know, I'm not sure I would like to, but it requires so much work.
And, you know, in this industry.
Because you have to get a choreographer.
You got to get a choreographer.
I mean, lights are like a million dollars.
Oh, my God.
I was going to say big.
Yeah, expensive.
Who has the money?
Yeah.
I mean, it's insane.
I remember like paying for like, like we used to do that a lot.
Like you pay like, what was it like 250 for a music video?
And like, it looks shitty, but you're proud of it because it happened at all.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Which is something to be proud of.
Absolutely.
You're creating it.
It is.
But it's like, oh, like thinking about getting into that again is like, oh, very tough.
I know.
So much.
So much.
Because I haven't.
Yeah.
I haven't had to
think about that in a while because and which which is just me not not me being like oh like
i've moved on from that it's just like i've never you know i just i just don't want to deal with
that ever and that's my that we did it a lot right yeah how did you guys do so many vids well there
was a several of us so we all pitched in a little bit. Okay, that helps. But I totally disengaged, right?
Like, I wasn't that involved in the video production.
I would say, like, well, you did what you did so well for Popper Roulette,
which is, like, contribute, like, visually,
and you were also an amazing performer in the group.
I think everyone, like, had, like, different roles.
Shut up.
But, like, in terms of money, like, we all threw, like, what, 30 bucks
and got
something yeah but i wasn't like you know i wasn't engaged in the i wasn't like production thinking
about like you know where where where do locations oh yeah like that is a nightmare that's tough you
have to have like in order to be a producer like dave mizzoni has that dave has that instinct but
not everyone has that instinct which is like as a producer, it's fucking
a lot of work and uncomfortable.
Yeah, it's like being
annoying to everyone. That's the
job. And it's like, I can't do that.
I have to be loved. I know.
And especially like being comfortable asking for
favors because you
are every time. Yeah, always.
Because if you like actually got a location,
you're paying so much money.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
There's got to be something that's thrown in there because you lucked out or it was free somehow.
I mean, you know.
Like the location, it was like your dad's office.
Oh, my dad has a building we could use.
That's me doing.
I even.
Oh, finish your joke.
A girl.
Stunning.
Stunning.
Thanks.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I transformed.
Go off, queen.
I even hate when people post on like Facebook, like looking for an office.
And I'm like, don't.
Like, this is for.
This is sad.
I hate seeing this.
I know.
It makes me sad.
Oh, BB.
Wait, what?
BB.
What were we going to say?
I think also oftentimes people know exactly where to find those things and they just post
them publicly so it doesn't look like they're bugging them.
But it's like, okay.
Oh, that's interesting.
I don't know.
Also, who the fuck am I to say?
I don't know how it is.
No, you've been here.
Say it.
I've been out here and I know people.
You all know where the locations are yes you should
start commenting that well i quit facebook so oh is that true i can't be bothered cbb well you're
this is about a week we're at the week mark how are you feeling i'm feeling pretty good do you
have a goal time period that you're aiming for yeah i just want to like until i feel like i can
go back to it and it won't be distracting to me.
What I think was a problem was it was in my life as this thing I did instead of work.
I wasn't writing new stuff.
I was just getting caught up in things that don't matter.
Arguing about whatever headline it happens to be that week or whatever bullshit drama is happening instead of doing the work.
It's just a distraction.
So far, so good. It's been good for me in that respect i'm so impressed but it's hard to not like you know i know feel like it's there it's impossible you're also not missing much
no the quality has gone down it like now it's not what it used to be bad website it's a bad website
it's where people go when they have a bad feeling to share yeah yeah something to complain about yeah yeah it truly is not yeah there's no like variable
reward anymore to go back and to be like what's gonna happen now you know it's also it's like
what am i gonna get out of it this time when i log on right that's gone i mean and also there's
the argument that it's like oh sorry that like the reality of the news and everything isn't like
exciting and fun for you that's also fun i think facebook is great to like engage with people but you when you
have to make a personal choice for like your mental well-being like let people do that like
i'll engage in the way i want to on twitter and instagram oh my god the people who are
guilt you into like engaging with certain news stories, like, I don't know.
You know how present that is, very.
It's very present, but there's such a weird problem with that that I haven't been able to verbalize.
But anyway, it's bullying.
It's bullying.
It's bullying, plain and simple.
And have you watched any of Top Model?
No. Okay, don't. It's garbage. yeah why getting bad um it's just a bad show and it dumbs down because tyra's
a bully and it talks it doesn't respect its audience it talks down to its audience it yeah
it's just a bad show but that's what made me literally the word bullying for me triggered
top model the episode was like about bullying and it was so dumb and it was so
crazy because the last scene of the show is literally tyra banks telling a girl she's a bad
person and that and she doesn't really deserve it this girl isn't bullying anyone in the house
she doesn't have any friends because like her personality is a little like tough to connect
with and she says things sometimes they're like conceited but she's not a bully if anything she's being bullied and ostracized and tyra's like speech to her at the end is like in order to win
this competition you have to be a good person on the outside and the inside and i think you're a
good person on the inside but that isn't showing and you need to work and it goes on and on and
the girl just eventually goes okay I understand I get it
she's like okay I'm like thank you
and Tara's like okay I'm gonna let
you go and it's like
bitch you just held this girl
hostage and told her what a shitty person
you are a supermodel you run
this show you're a mogul you have
everything this girl has very little
you can't stand there and tell
her that she's a bad person
that's breaking her like it doesn't matter her personality quirks at that point like tyra banks
is a bully yeah yeah she is not good it needs to be called out let's talk about because sam
two seconds ago said bb let's talk about dark race dark race drag race oh i didn't know the code was being stupid
like what's that other word uh um oh like uh well i'm sorry what you know anthony says it iffy
a rape a rape okay so he's on record for something different okay important to know
awesome all right well okay um uh dark race we we know we sort of know I sort of know where you stand. We all
do. We're all in this team.
Through and through. Well, yes. I mean,
Aja is
killing markedly improved.
Markedly improved. How'd she do
that? I don't know. I think confidence.
I think she's I think she
is one of those queens who saw herself on TV
and was like, oh, wait, I come off
that way. Yeah. I think not all queens do those queens who saw herself on TV and was like, oh, wait, I come off that way.
Yeah.
But not all queens do that.
She seems like a resilient person.
I don't think it was easy on her when things were not good with her and Valentina.
I think Valentina's fans probably came to destroy her.
And I think you can respond to that in one of two ways.
Say, I don't care.
I have this opportunity to be fierce.
Let's be fierce or you can literally fade away forever because it's too hard and i feel like
she chose to like get very fierce and level her pussy up as she says i love that i love that
i love that too i think it's really powerful i think that's so powerful i think mostly everyone
else is really boring yes and like sh like, Shangela is like fine.
Like she's going to win,
but I don't care.
Like who,
you don't care about Shangela.
Hallelujah.
No,
I don't think Hollywood was funny.
I don't connect with people who don't think it's funny.
Really?
Yeah.
Hallelujah.
Really?
To me,
it's like,
what's funny about it.
It's just a catchphrase.
I think hallelujah is so funny.
I don't know.
I love it. Well, it's like, I'm not like a catchphrase i think hallelujah is so funny i don't know i love it well to me it's like i'm not
like a catchphrase queen either like i'm not like coming for the catchphrases but i i come in i say
this whole fucking podcast is a series of catchphrases what are you talking about well
catchphrase queen i'm just saying yeah in my drag race contestants it's not it's not necessary i
whereas some queens you could argue
are mostly catchphrase.
Okay.
Like Jocelyn Fox
is like a wah-wah
and not much.
I loved wah-wah.
I loved Jocelyn too
and I loved that catchphrase
but it was a large part of her.
Wah-wah.
It was so short.
She should have won
Miss Congeniality.
She was fucking
100%
fucking Ben.
But she got married instead.
Which was so nice.
Ben. I'm so married instead. Which was so nice.
Ben.
I'm so tired of Ben winning.
Ben's so good every time.
I'm not like, he shouldn't have won.
But I am like, who cares?
I'm so bored.
Yeah, they do something really interesting with Ben this episode.
Oh, yeah.
Because I have to tell you, you don't know this.
But we've seen the episode. I love this about you guys.
Yeah.
But also
this is going to come out next week when there'll be
another episode too. So this is all
anyway, but Ben
We have to reserve comment on a lot of what you're
saying. The thing with Ben is that you can't really
deny it though is the hardest part.
No, you can't.
You can't deny the competence. In that you can't deny
that it's well done or
even that you enjoyed it. That it's well done or even that you enjoyed it.
That it's well done.
I'm more annoyed that the queens aren't better other than Ben.
I'm like, what?
Well, who did you want to be there?
Who did I want to be there?
Well, wasn't Willem supposed to be there?
That was rumors.
I was sure and I was kind of excited because Willem really shakes things up.
See, I don't like Willem.
I don't care for Willem, yeah.
I wanted Kim Chi to come back.
Yes!
Like that would have been so fun.
And like I think she's gotten even more confident
and she was good on her season.
And I wanted to win.
Yeah, yeah.
And then like, I don't know.
All these queens seem like...
Filler queens?
Filler queens.
Wow.
That's not the first time I've heard that. No, I mean. No, no, no. I mean, I don't know. Because these queens seem like... Filler queens? Filler queens. Wow. That's not the first time I've heard that.
No, I mean...
No, not that mean at all.
Because I'm never mean.
No, your reputation is that you're so nice.
I think that they are filler queens
because I think that if you actually took
the first 10 seasons, whatever,
you would come back with a list
that looked very close to the All-Stars 2 cast.
Yeah.
And I think that that says it all.
I mean, if they all were ineligible,
if we were doing All-Stars right now,
who would we pick?
We would pick Alaska.
We would pick Detox.
We would pick Alyssa Edwards, I think.
Well, right, because they sort of
dried the well with all stars 2
exactly and so i think no matter what all stars 3 is not going to be all stars 2 because literally
you know fucking alaska and alissa aren't there so so who's the next exciting like i guess trixie
you know what i mean like kim laganja i would have loved to see Laganja. Sam wants to say something. I don't know if I can reveal secret Facebook group information.
Okay, never mind.
We'll try.
Try it.
Do it.
Do it.
So you said something about Trixie that I felt like was very accurate.
Come on.
Quote me.
Okay, I'm going to say it.
Quote me, bitch.
He said that she's only funny because Katya laughs so much after everything she says.
I really disagree.
Really?
Yeah, because I actually think that for me,
the best part of that show, Trixie and Katya's show,
is Trixie reacting to what Katya does.
I mean, yes.
That's true.
But then to have her be in this, you know.
She's just funny.
But she's in this little feedback loophole where it's like, I'll say anything and Katya will cackle for like a fucking minute.
And she just has time to sit there and silence me like, yeah, I'm fucking killing it.
I trust Katya there.
Like, she thinks it's funny because it's fucking funny.
And just watching Katya react to it the way she does, like funny because it's fucking funny and just watching katya
react to it the way she does like i don't know like to me that's how i'd be reacting it's how
i react when you when you are turning it okay and same likewise but i don't i mean like with katya
it's like you can it's she's she's her reactions are just so volatile and that like you don't know
how strongly she will react in any given thing and so she'll just be like it's the same
like
wow that was good that was really good
like yeah oh my god i'm like
all right like katya come on like but
maybe that's her actual physical response
this is crazy that bowen is reading katya
because you know bowen's done crazy
things when it comes to katya in the past
like ruined drag race oh my god
oh see i wasn't I wasn't following you
Katya no
I was
villainized that day
I remember you
begging for the community's respect again
oh no I never
groveled bitch
I've stood my ground honey
yeah it's crazy
you have to issue a written apology
It's gay it's queer sports
And people don't
Don't spoil the Superbowl
Results for me fuck you
No it is not the same and you deeply know it's not the same
I deeply know it is absolutely the same
And that people should fucking clock in
It's appointment television
Gather around your support your local
Gay nightlife
and go to the bars and watch it in real time,
honey. You are privileged. No.
You walk into this room privileged.
Yeah. Telling people to go to bars
when you have the screeners.
Get out of here. As I'm saying, he's so
privileged. No, my God, no.
No. Anytime
you both came after me.
Yes, honey. Sometimes Sam and I get on the same side.
It's weird.
It doesn't happen often, but we go.
People were coming after me for being rich and for having a home theater.
It might be disgusting.
You're the 1% and it's filthy.
That was the best day of my entire life.
I was so full of true joy.
When you have to think about everything Bowen has, it's so disheartening.
It's just sad.
A movie theater, honey.
A bidet, bitch.
A whole movie theater.
My parents are immigrants.
They worked every single cent.
And you know nothing of that struggle.
I know everything of that struggle.
You were born with a silver spoon.
No, honey.
In that dang mouth.
Unbelievable.
Bitch, if they had stayed in China, I would not have been born as a second child, honey.
And I live every day honoring the sacrifice they made that has paid dividends for them in return.
They've reaped everything that they've sacrificed, honey.
Sure, sure, sure.
I can hear all the listeners clocking the privilege.
Sorry, I just couldn't.
They're all getting their pens out to write down the time when they heard Bowen's privilege.
His money bags
for making so much noise it was crazy they were so loud all his coins all sacagawea coins wow just
carries them around yeah babe yeah babe get over it babe but no it was cool to remember that you
were rich i did know that but i had forgotten briefly okay yeah absolutely sam very wealthy
i would say sam is pretty wealthy. Oh, you better hush. I'm simply not.
Are you wealthy?
That could be something that we know.
No, I'm simply not.
Simply not.
I think it's simply untrue.
He certainly has a nice one bedroom.
He does?
Oh, it's a two bedroom.
I'm just saying.
Oh, yes, it's a two bedroom.
I live with my lover.
Just saying.
Oh, my God.
I walked in and I said, oh, these people do very well. It's a well-kept apartment. I said these people do very well
it's a well kept apartment
yeah
these people do very well
it has nothing to do
with money
it has everything to do
with their own taste
and effort
to maintain it
and you know
we knew what we wanted
and so we made
the right sacrifices
yeah
beautiful
in order to get that
yeah
living in New York is
it's just one sacrifices to be made
yeah it's a huge sacrifice wow you know if you came over to my apartment um i don't know no one's
been there where do you live so i don't know how people are going to react i live in greenpoint now
i moved as of about two months ago no way yes but No, yes. But he's like super close to Long Island City.
I'm very, very close to Queens.
Oh, okay.
Not to say where I live.
Got it, got it.
I was about to ask for the streets.
I was like, probably shouldn't do that here.
Right.
But no, I love it.
But like, I'm curious to think,
because I don't necessarily know too much about style
or like home decor.
I could probably really use a bobby right now to like
redo my stuff but i think it's nice we could all use a bobby but me too me most uh but i think it's
kind of nice in there but i'm sure once like you and dave come over and sudi comes over i'm gonna
be told something is egregiously wrong oh i won't do that no no not in a bad way in an objective
way i'm just sure i've set it up
in some way that's like obviously not right when's the big housewarming party come on it's too small
babies is it just you it's just me wow except we're having some problems with living facilities
like what like constantly water dripping down from my roof oh no oh rainforest cafe it's happened three
times you need to call 3-1-1 honey well we worked it out the problems were clear and they were fixed
but it was just like this is happening a lot okay um because it's not good i mean you don't want
water leaking down from the ceiling in your apartment no yeah no no well maybe from the
shower when you turn it on and you need that. But other than that, water shouldn't be coming down.
No.
We agree about that.
Yes.
Yeah, that rarely happens.
That rarely happens.
You know, but it does.
But it does.
But it does.
It's really powerful.
And that's like, you know, it's honest.
And that's like what's so important to me.
Is friends being honest with each other.
If you can't be honest.
Okay, let me ask you something then, Queen.
Okay, bitch.
You are Jennifer Aniston's best friend right now. What do do you tell her i'm so sorry what you're going through i'm
sure this is really hard yeah and you know you're gonna find the one and like definitely like i
don't think it's your fault but maybe reflect not to necessarily think exactly but definitely like
before you jump in next time make sure it's right okay. Okay, so get this. If Jennifer Aniston is your best friend,
and literally think of yourself like her best friend in this world.
In this world, you are her best friend.
She comes to you and says,
Oh my God, this is fucking crazy.
Brad texted me.
And what?
Let's just act out the scenario right now.
What did he say?
He said, I've been thinking about you what do i do to i haven't responded jen you can't do this oh my
god jen text him back no jen i don't listen to sit i think you should stop you've made i want
to say i love you you have built your that's what you feel you should do that you've built your whole public persona like deliberately around this like shitty idea about this shitty obsession with like your love life
and your personal oh my god you're not making any sense jen think of the fans they'll love to see it
i think i need to text him no jen in fact i'm gonna call him right now don't call that's too
needy you think that's too needy yeah okay yeah i'll text text okay or should i email him what makes should i have my agent email him
i don't know that's so cold oh yeah what makes you think that he he's not gonna treat you the
same way that he treated you in the past or that he treated angelina you know um i i have a i have
a really good feeling yeah yeah I just got a lot of
Money from Apple
To do my show
Wow congrats
Oh yeah
You're doing an Apple show
With Reese
Jen I didn't know
You got an Apple show
Yeah
That's exciting
So I'm feeling really good
And really confident
Because I've asked
For what I want
What was your contract
Like fucking 10 million
10 is that true
Something fucking crazy
I'm really
Okay wow
And so I have to tell you
Like now I'm feeling
Like really confident
So I think I should text Brad That I love him And want to get back together with him i think i think we
should announce it right now no here's what you do you have your agent email his agent get him
cast on your apple show then he'll fall in love with you naturally brad style oh my god yeah
should i wear a wig so i can pretend it's not me we could tell them it's like i don't know who's
who has brown hair i honestly don't know anyone i don't know, who has brown hair? I honestly don't know anyone with brown hair.
Me neither.
I don't know any of them.
All my friends are also blonde.
I would love to meet one one day, but.
You guys are Chelsea Handler and Chelsea Handler.
So you guys are both blonde.
We don't know anyone who's brown hair or brown.
You know what?
As Chelsea Handler, I will one day start a mediocre Netflix documentary series where I surround
myself with people of color just as
props. And
scenes.
Great. We learned a lot. We did.
That was cool. That was fun. I want the
transcript for that. I would tell it to Jen straight.
I'd be like, no, Jen. Babe.
No. It's crazy people are even
thinking about that. I think that showed our difference really
well. Because we ganged up on Matt so much today.
And it's like, this showed that we don't follow each other blindly.
No.
Yeah, no.
That's what I'm saying.
When you guys are not on the same page, it's very powerful.
But here's the thing.
They're honest.
What's the third iteration of this where, okay, so because the other two are Matt and I ganging up on Sam.
Or Sam and I ganganging up on Matt.
No, no, no.
No, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
The two iterations are Matt and Sam ganging up on me and me and Sam ganging up on Matt.
But me and Matt have never ganged up on Sam.
Probably because it's not respectful because he's a guest and we should be nice.
No, we can gang up on him about the stinker part.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, sure, sure, sure.
But even now we're really polite about it.
That was really like...
And it's really rancid. Yeah, it's nasty especially today was so hot but who could
have predicted that here's happy spring by the way here's what you've ruined like i was with you i
saw you over the weekend and then i came and then like i walked over to you and i was like
damn it sam you stinker and you go and you and you were like yep and then i was like i i guess
i have to put up with that like this is just normal now he's normalized it i mean is it actively annoying no
it's because like i kind of feel like it's like cute and fun i i think it smells really good in
here right now see there we go my breath on the mic smell is amazing oh what does it smell like oh disgusting but the sound of you sniffing into
the mic just now like really hurt really hurt i love that the viewers are probably like oh
and they're watching the viewers and they're watching we're watching podcasts are a visual
medium can i say one thing yes i'm wearing a Mack Weldon shirt. Okay!

A peek behind the curtain.
Yeah.

Yeah.
Wow.
I mean, we're good at what we do no that's would you say that
i would 100 say that do you listen to this podcast or no do you say if i want to i i scroll i see who
the guest is and i feel out in that moment do i give it a list do i not and what's an example of
someone that you saw on our show that you said click click click bitch i clicked the janine garofalo one
fun yep how do you feel um the so the craziest part was when you were like it's noon on this
date and you're listening and it was literally noon on this day because i knew it was actually
i was gonna take a screenshot and i was like who cares yeah right so you know what you told us now
so why would you need it for so many screenshots like i thought i was like this is gonna be so fun i'm gonna like text matt
you knew you well i mean that would have been that would have been lovely because
every once in a while i'll shoot a text when i'm listening because it's it feels
very personal wow yes and you get a direct line and i get a
direct line and that's so straight to the heart straight to the heart
yeah yeah i mean and i wish i had a direct line to more people more things
absolutely i would tell Trixie
you're being boring
and she'd be like thank you
that's honest that's friendship
you know what I think she would stay tuned
stay tuned that's all I want to say
about Drag Race and Trixie
you are spoiling no I'm not
especially not now it's already gonna
have come out oh sure spoiling for me i mean look
no it wasn't all i said was stay tuned for trixie something will happen with trixie it's not a
spoiler that something happens with trixie on drag wait wait i have one question yeah do you guys feel
like are you like stressed out by the fact that there's gonna be like immediately another season
and it's gonna be so much no i'm really excited about it really
i i want that space because otherwise i just we're gonna there's gonna be some element of
fatigue there it's gonna feel so different i know it well i mean will it yes i think it will
i think because like it's the 10th season and vh1 knows what a hit it has and i think the season
nine premiere was bigger like gaga was on it you know what i mean like it'll be exciting and also the new queens if what i'm hearing the tea that
i'm hearing is true like there's some really good fucking queens on there and i'm excited about
watching them and i think like the each one knows what a gem it has and they're gonna turn it out
okay okay also i don't get fatigue over Drag Race.
I want it to always be on.
I mean, like, ideally same.
Like, I'd like to think that I would always want Drag Race,
but it feels like sometimes there's a lot of mental upkeep to be done.
With, I don't know, you know?
It just feels like you have to constantly parse it out and like talk
about it i don't know we literally we literally are talking about it every week like maybe that's
why maybe it's just because there's like an output every week related to that it's also similar to
like when like straight people are talking about sports all the time and you're like when was the
last time you like asked you how you were doing and i feel like gay people now get that
where it's like oh my god all conversations are about drag race we never talk about real things
anymore that's a read on bowen yang that is who brought drag race up and you know what it's true
it's he's very privileged all that privilege it's gone right to his head he's gone blind
with privilege you were you're right. Sam, fine. How are you?

Yes.
Kisses to my critics.
You only make me stronger and God bless.
Although I did also have one when we were at Pop Roulette, which was Don't Bite the Hand.
You are a catchphrase queen.
I guess so.
Then Matt, at one point for about a week-long period we were in charlottesville i remember charleston one of those charleston probably charleston we were not
in charlottesville that's why i went to college yes no charleston yeah charlottesville is uvi um
charleston and matt he was telling you where you went to school.
I'm sorry.
You're so privileged.
I know.
Matt's catchphrase in Charleston was, just for the week, was, don't bite the hand.
Don't bite the hand.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
No, that's what you just said.
It was, keep him second guessing.
Keep him second guessing.
You always have to keep him second guessing.
Oh, no.
Keep him second guessing.
Wait, that one's coming back. That one's coming back. You gotta keep him second guessing oh no keep them second guessing wait that one's coming back that one's coming
back you gotta keep them second guessing oh oh wait that is peak idiot that's so so stupid
it's so fucking funny i think sam has catchphrases too absolutely i guess i don't think so honey
this whole podcast is catch oh my god you're right we're garbage and trash sam's catchphrases are more like little one word monosyllabic things like
perf oh yeah i say perf a lot i say like deaf stunning yeah i say stunning i yeah i do say
stunning you do i i think it's not like a full-on catchphrase but just like the general gasp like the yeah oh yeah that's the
that's trademark sam yeah no it's not everyone does that wow awesome awesome wait that was a
good catchphrase thank you awesome anything else you want to talk about for club comic i i just
want to talk about i'm so excited oh sheesh um is there a narrative a thread oh there is a narrative
thread it's based heavily off of um both uh lady gaga's monster ball tour documentary and katie
perry's part of me documentary beautiful yes love those i oh because we were making fun of that
documentary weren't we yes in the promo vid it vid it's a through line vid oh my god
in the show
oh my god
I can't wait
the show's gonna be so fun
it's gonna be so fun
I'm not gonna spoil anything
but there's a fun
little reference
to the beginning
of the monster ball doc
where lady gaga's
in her dressing room
but it's so fun
you know what
you know what moment
came back to me
in that
first of all
there's amazing moments
in the monster ball doc
but there's one where in the middle of just dance she um turns to the audience and goes did you guys
come here to party tonight i'm gonna kick your ass oh that's amazing and everyone goes crazy and
i'm watching and i'm like oh i'm gonna'm going to kick your ass New York or insert city. And then the part, of course, during Love Game where they play the Marilyn Manson remix.
And then she goes, you know what I'm talking about?
She goes, I don't know if you've heard, but I've got a pretty tremendous dick.
So come on.
Oh, no, no.
She goes, yeah, no, she goes.
Yeah, I've got a pretty tremendous dick.
And I heard that they've got some pretty tremendous dicks too here in New York City or here in Brussels.
The best runner, she goes.
All right, Belfast.
I hear they've got some pretty big cock here in Northern Ireland.
And then she goes welcome to
the monster ball now dance you motherfuckers and then it's this huge yeah that's how you do it oh
my god that's really fun that was peak gaga for me that concert is so weird because like she doesn't
have that many hits yet uh-huh and she's still like doing giant fucking tours you're seeing her
do like the b-sides yeah and it's crazy this crazy. Let's have some fun. This beat is sick.
That's not a B-side.
No, that's not a B-side.
Even like, so happy I could die.
Yes.
No, and the beginning where she goes, where she does like glitter and grease and shit.
And like beautiful and dirty rich.
Yes.
Like, you know what should have been like one of the big hits, but is sort of a B-side
if you think about it?
Boys, boys, boys.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So good.
That's like one that the real fans put on the it's not a b-side
but everyone else
it's a b-side
like boys and
boys
are you guys familiar
with the hidden track
from the fame
no
which is
Disco Heaven
I wasn't a fan early on
it's one of her best songs
you must listen
a Gaga song you don't know
how do you
where is it hidden
Bowen loves the bonus tracks
it's on Spotify
just it's not gonna be
it's not gonna be on the actual album when you tap into the album.
But you actually just search Lady Gaga Disco Heaven and it'll pop up.
Do you have Spotify?
No.
Apple Music?
You don't have any streaming services?
I have Apple Music.
It'll be on Apple Music.
Just search Lady Gaga Disco Heaven.
It is so good.
And school and life change Bowen's life.
Okay.
All right.
I wonder what the next life-changing song will be i had um i i had a
like i used to pirate all my music and i like downloaded born this way and it like had multiple
tracks missing from it and it was the only version of born this way i had forever so then which
tracks did you miss like i had never heard black jesus oh that's such a good track it's so good
i don't know that one either maybe you have have the same bootleg. Maybe I do.
It was a bonus track on the deluxe edition.
Oh, so it is a bonus track.
So it's a bonus track. So I wasn't fully off.
What were the other ones?
I don't remember the other ones.
You're not a real Gaga fan, but he owns the vinyls, but whatever.
I don't know how you reconcile that.
Unbelievable.
It's about the brand.
It's about the brand.
It's about when you walk into the apartment saying, these people do very well.
Oh, and they have Gaga vinyls now. I can't believe vinyls go to see her live with me you know me i'm currently um
fine i know broke as hell but we're gonna go see her in vegas we're gonna go to vegas we should go
to vegas yes so far away i would love that i want to see them all in vegas like i can't believe
mariah like she's still doing stuff no was there yeah. And I didn't go see her. It's weird.
The Britney Vegas show looked so fun.
Is that over?
I think it's over.
Is it?
Oh, I didn't know that.
I think it's ending very soon.
Oh, well.
I would shell out the money to go watch Christina Aguilera's show in Vegas.
Is she doing one?
No, but I'm just saying that's one that I would go to. She, to me, is just like a general B-side person.
Yeah.
So, Britney Spears is your eternal A-side and Christina is just the B-side of that.
Yeah, a little bit.
I understand feeling like that.
I just think Christina, there's so much good Christina stuff that we don't even talk about.
There is.
Like Stripped has so much good stuff.
Even her last album, Lotus or whatever.
There's some good tracks on there and
people just didn't even want to give up time it's not a second it's too bad yeah well she's i don't
know christina aguilera is a part of me i think i think gaga is this anomaly for a vegas act
because i feel like it's weird it's weird it starts a different era about when you go to vegas
you know what i mean like
no one this big currently or maybe i don't know what are her record sales like are they what they
used to be joanne went platinum joanne went platinum but like a year after it came out
that's right so i'm saying like maybe she's not like as financially comfortable as we thought
who knows she's financially comfortable she's a huge fucking pop star but maybe that's just not
where the money is anymore.
Sure.
Maybe she wants to be doing shows and shows and shows and movies.
Oh, but she shouldn't.
She's in so much pain.
She's in so much pain.
That's the last thing she should do.
But I don't think she thinks of herself.
I think she thinks of pushing on and like...
This is her second tour she's canceled.
Isn't that crazy?
She's ambitious to a fault, I think.
I worry about her.
Yeah. Yeah. Oh. Oh, yeah. Dang. That's sad. She's ambitious to a fault. I worry about her.
Yeah.
Oh yeah.
She can't go forever like this.
No no no. This is going to have to be some sort of physical change.
I think that
maybe that's even part of the reason why we
see her dipping her toe into acting
and trying to do movies or
songwriting. Maybe because that's
where she's headed.
In a sort of
I don't know if Bette Midler is the right thing
to say, but some sort of more acting
direction.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like Cher did for a second.
Yeah.
The tea that I heard
is that A Star is Born is good.
When does that come out? Soon. Like in the spring. It was supposed to come out in May, then it was October, to state that maybe i i the tea that i heard is that a star is born is good i hear that when does
that come out like soon like in the spring supposed to come out in may then it was october and then it
got pushed again to maybe september or something but it's like it was pushed from being a summer
movie to being more of an oscar movie because apparently people were very impressed with like
bradley cooper's work in it and he directed it yeah and they said that gaga is like good enough
to get attention but i the t
that i heard said that he is like the thing you walk away from being wow he was amazing which is
kind of crazy and also he directed it and i heard the movie's good and i heard that she's also good
in it but that he's like the story of it is what is the t that i heard i was low-key rooting for
him during silver linings playbook during that whole oscar season i forgot who was who he was
up against but look he was like yeah he was great i love bradley cooper i think he's
a great actor he's one where i'm like like if someone says like do you like bradley cooper my
first response is no and then i'll think on it and be like yes yeah i'll be like he was in what
hot american summer like what's really to dislike you know what i mean like he seems like a good guy
and he does yeah his instinct seems to be good.
Yeah.
I did.
The first time I saw Silver Linings Playbook, I really didn't like it.
And then the second time, I was like weeping, crying, loved it so much.
I loved it.
I think Jennifer Lawrence is kind of bullshit.
I think she's great.
I loved her.
It made me love her.
I was obsessed. You don't love like the front runner and i respect
that like i i root for the underdog too a lot but like i think what colored everyone's perception
of that oscar season in that movie is like everyone was like she's amazing you love it
and you're like wait no i haven't made up my mind yet it's like what happened with emma stone and
la la land everyone was like you love it it. It deserves the awards. It will win. And you were like, wait, hold on.
Let me.
Yeah.
Yes.
Yeah.
And I think the instinct to not root for that is a good one.
Thank you.
You have to break out of the matrix.
But also one of my dear friends once told me that you just have to go through life and experience it.
I think it's time to with that lesson learned it's time to
move on to i don't think so honey and i don't think so honey as you're well aware bitch oh
don't come from as you're well aware is your is your moment to take a minute to do really whatever
you want to do and sam proves that you can do whatever you want to do with your minute oh
oh my god How the hell?
You've come for us.
You've come for Kelly.
You've really tried to ruin my life with your Adam Thanks Honies.
This is... Remember, Sam's first episode was the day that Instagram stories came out.
And you didn't mention it.
I was doing a service to you guys.
You have to criticize what you love so that it gets to where it should be.
I think Sam has lifted us up.
Absolutely.
Okay.
Would you like me to go first?
I would love for you to go first.
Okay.
This is Matt Rodgers' I Don't Think So, Honey, and his time starts now.
I don't think so, honey.
Critics.
Personally, my critics, I blow them kisses, but not everyone does.
Hey, critics, why don't you try enjoying something?
Sam Taggart, you can be a little bit
of a critic sometimes when you're doing your i don't think so honey you will say i don't think
so honey matt and bowen for whatever goddamn reason well i won't stand for it sam taggart
is a critic and a hater and he makes me stronger when he came out and criticized kelly clarkson
for all sorts of dummy doomer dumb dumb reasons i said well you're a critic and i sipped my whatever i was drinking at
that moment let's call it tea i continue on critics yes i'm also talking about you in the world
of film and television i don't think so honey because two percent of people said that black
panther was not good it only has a 98 percent of tomatoes those two percent of critics i don't
think so honey that
was universally great film if you're a critic five check yourself and if you're have a lot of
privilege like bowen yang check yourself you are a critic of emma stone and jennifer lawrence check
yourself your privilege but that's one minute okay that was very scattered like almost a tornado of
i don't think so honey where you didn't know know what was coming at you from what direction no yeah I was like pointless
you had you had a three
pronged approach you did
Sam which you spent a lot of time on and then Black
Panther which you spent a little less time on than me
which like you barely squeezed well think about how
they all attach to the umbrella
of critics and then judge me
okay cool
I feel like I'm gonna hear about this
I don't think so honey people. People are going to be like,
this wasn't a very good one.
Do people reach out to you?
And those people are critics
and can go get books!
Kisses to them.
Do you have a phone?
Sure do.
I can time myself.
Where's my phone?
Wow.
Okay.
You could technically say that Matt came for us.
Yeah, I mean, like, technically.
I just looked down at my phone,
and I had a text from Michael Hartney,
who's seeing the sneak peek of Frozen on Broadway tonight.
And he said,
Broadway Let It Go is the gag of the fucking century.
Okay.
Just know that that's true.
All right, listeners.
As we told Dron,
I have one minute on the clock for Bowen Yang's
I Don't Think So, Honey,
and his time starts now.
I Don't Think So, Honey,
people who are welcoming Paris Hilton
back into the fucking mainstream zeitgeist bullshit.
Kim Petras, this great new German pop star,
has her worshiping at an altar of Paris Hilton
in her music video,
and everyone's gagged for it.
All the gays are like,
Bowen, do you see the new Kim Petras video where like
Paris Hilton makes a little cameo at the end I'm like
yeah I did and it's fucking bullshit
because Paris Hilton voted for Donald
fucking Trump important
and I was talking to Dave Mazzone about this Dave
is sort of like 30 seconds David's
taking this very reason side he goes oh well you know we can't
expect her to know better and I go yes we
can absolutely can she went to fucking
Sidley and friends or
I don't know that read him oh no
I'm not gonna read date but I'm saying reading the
culture that is so eager
to accept Paris Hilton who
actually fucking
sucks and is a monster
and voted for the worst fucking president
in the fucking history of this country
as agreed upon by 200 political scientists
so Paris Hilton I don't fucking
think so. Honey, you. You're a piece of shit.
And that's one minute. Wow. Very good.
Thank you.
And that was a two-pronged approach.
Because it was Paris Hilton by the end
and it was the culture that allows
Paris Hilton. And they do connect and that's what made
that fantastic. I had no idea she was a Trump
supporter. Oh yeah. And she proudly
admitted to that.
And the answer was very like, I just think he'd be good for jobs.
Like it was very just like, I'm going to say this stupid fucking thing.
Yeah.
Okay.
Okay.
You ready?
I think so.
Who knows what this will be?
I never know what this tramp.
I said I didn't want any more no good tramps on this episode on this podcast after the Annie Donnelly episode.
No good tramps.
Oh, that was fun.
Okay.
I listened to that one.
No good pregnant tramp.
Okay.
This is Sam Shackert.
I don't think so, honey.
As time starts now.
I don't think so, honey.
People that make me feel bad for enjoying the warm weather in the middle of winter.
Oh, okay, I
get it. Global warming is real and
it's going to destroy us all.
But like, and I'm not saying like it's a
good thing, but like at least let me
have fun for one fucking
day. It's like every day
is so hard with this like social
political climate. And like
can I just enjoy the sunshine
for a second?'re all holding hands
30 seconds it's like we all need to stop fighting okay we need to stop fighting love you sam and we
need to stop criticizing and we need to just embrace that yeah it's hot we love you so much
sister speak on like yes queen and like it's just like go off honey if i have to suffer through the
world like stopping and like they're not being enough food and like not's just like it's just like go off honey if i have to suffer through the world like

On Thanksgiving Day, 1999,
five-year-old Cuban boy,
Elian Gonzalez,
was found off the coast of Florida.
And the question was, should the boy go back to his father in Cuba? Mr. Gonzalez wanted to go home and he wanted to take his son with him.
Or stay with his relatives in Miami? Imagine that your mother died trying to get you to freedom.
