Starting point is 00:01:59 did before the pandemic which is not even you went you You went complete still Alice during that time. I'm like Luddite, Amish, Nell. There was in central Wisconsin, I remember there was Amish people and I like not to be ignorant when I first saw people going down the side of the street in a wagon with like the bonnets on and stuff. I remember being like, is this real? Like what's their problem?
Starting point is 00:02:23 Because they're like colonial. I'm like, is this a ghostly apparition? Like, I understand that the clothing has certain limitations, but the styles are unchanging, which is kind of fascinating. Like, you can't use these fabrics or whatever. You have to make the clothes yourself. But we're not doing halters or like, you know, like we're not. Or like, there's a lot of ways to be modest that aren't, like, a blouse and a long dress. But I would give them electricity before a halter.
Starting point is 00:02:51 But do they do – but I've seen Amish people at the airport. So where do you draw the line? Is a flight not a machine? No, I think it's just a steel bird. I'm just kidding. I don't know. I don't know i don't know i have no way wait amish don't go to the airport do they mary i've seen amish people at the airport flying on planes of course they just hang on to the wings and go there's a colonial well we've had opposite weeks you yes we have you actually did the gigs that were asked of you which is very
Starting point is 00:03:25 my tea very and i took a page out of your book which is fallen i fell ill yeah fallen ill and disappeared into the wilderness oh i know it was um oh my god so i'm in boston now wait I have to tell you, though, it's beautiful here. Boston? Fall in New York City. The Big Apple. No, in New England. I took some pictures on my phone. This is not going to be very interesting to listen to, but I took some pictures on my phone. Stunning.
Starting point is 00:03:59 Stunning. What are you going to do with them? I'm going to jerk off to them later. The foilage. I know you love that foilage. I know you love that foilage. It was picturesque fall foilage. And it was like, oh my God. It was that thing that, you know, New England in the fall is magical.
Starting point is 00:04:16 I don't care what anybody says. Don't let people tell you otherwise. Honey, I don't care if you've had your appendix out, you're prolapsed, or you're blind. New England is beautiful in the fall. And I was glad to be here in a 60 degree day with sun. I believe it. Yeah. I'll show you the pictures later.
Starting point is 00:04:31 It'll be riveting. I had to film at the Trixie Motel until Sunday. And then I had the bright idea to film. I think I filmed Monday and went back to LA. Had the bright idea to pack for all my gigs. I was supposed to fly to St louis first for this college gig and at the airport on the way to st louis my fucking appendix i don't know i don't know how to describe the medical term but i'm gonna say go off i think burst she went off like like like a twitter rant but with pain it was like and another thing bitch like it just compounded twitter threat of medical pain yeah it
Starting point is 00:05:05 was almost a four-hour flight and i was stuck in seat 1a the bulkhead seat which is the worst i think so there's nowhere to put anything oh you can't really stretch out your legs because there's a wall you know so i'm just doubled over in the seat, like knees to the chest going, most pain I've ever felt in my entire, entire, entire life. Really? Entire life. I couldn't even know pain could feel like that. And then we land and I go, I'm just going to go to sleep because maybe it's just upset stomach and I'll get over it. You serious?
Starting point is 00:05:37 So I went to bed and I slept for 40 minutes and woke up in worse pain. And I was like, we have to go to the hospital. We have to go to the hospital. We have to go to the hospital. We have to go to the hospital. We have to go to the hospital. So I had to go to the ER. And because of COVID, it was understaffed and not enough beds.
Starting point is 00:05:50 I had to sit in that waiting room for five and a half hours in extreme pain. Five and a half hours. And guess what the fucking commercial playing on the TV was? What? We have more and more
Starting point is 00:06:00 testimonials coming in from people who have turned their lives around by restoring their hair. and not just hair restoration but these bitches were shady there was this one was like tired of the constant battle comb over expensive hair plugs some people have just given up and live bald all together that was the tone on the yes some people have thrown their hands in the air given up and just flung themselves off a bridge yes say something i'm giving up on you like that is so intense to on a tv and there's of course women crying and i understand women losing their hair
Starting point is 00:06:37 is a different thing this is totally different thing but these men being like look at it's real you can touch it it's my hair it grows the best part is it's my hair it's my hair they kept being like it's my hair i'm like yeah it's your hair but like to make it sound like to to not have hair is this like some people have just ripped off all their skin and rolled in salt this ghastly ghoulish affliction from which there is no alternative lifestyle. It is perfectly acceptable to be a bald man. Has been for a long time. No one cares. Nobody cares.
Starting point is 00:07:13 Nobody fucking cares. And I almost felt like secondhand predatory. I was like, I understand we all have to make a buck, but making somebody at home at 4 a.m. watching this feel like they should literally kill themselves because they don't have the same head of hair they had at 20 is really a lot it's it's a lot it is a lot that was a lot you had to wait in the that's why you see it's funny i'm more horrified of going to the hospital than i am about the pain because i know what is the hospital is waiting waiting not getting like i figured oh they'll I'll have to wait an hour. Oh, it'll be like an hour. It'll be 90 minutes.
Starting point is 00:07:48 Mary, Mary, five and a half hours of me going, oh. And then I remember I was like, oh, and they were saying that shit about bald people. And I went, work. I was just like, kicking me when I'm down. Kicking me when I'm down. You should have said you had chest pain because I think they immediately see you because they think you're having a heart attack. Well, they're like, what's your pain level? I'm down. Kicking me when I'm down. You should have said you had chest pain because I think they immediately see you because they think you're having a heart attack. Well, they're like, what's your pain level?
Starting point is 00:08:07 I go 10. I said, this is the most pain I've ever been in my entire life. I said, I can barely stand. I almost couldn't get in the Uber. I was called 911. 10. This is the worst, the worst, the worst. So then I get in there.
Starting point is 00:08:17 Eh, you're not screaming. You're a five. Yeah. Then they put you in the CAT scan machine and they scan you. And you know, I've been sick for like a week and a half. I've been missing other gigs because of this right right so then they scan me and they go your appendix is like super uh swollen so we can either try to shrink it with antibiotics but since you've been on antibiotics for five days for your illness yeah i think just
Starting point is 00:08:36 cut it out i said well what do you do and they're like it's a quick procedure it's with like laparoscopic surgery and we can do it at 10 o'clock in a few hours i'm like i guess let's do that so then they give me morphine which i just want to say does nothing wait wait wait you weren't under general anesthesia oh no they gave me morphine in the waiting room but i'm like this mary this is nothing i was like yeah judge judy meme of her like tap tap tap tap i was like i can still feel the pain what are we doing here i still know who I am and I know where I am. This is not working. I want to wake up in four days with like a Tijuana skinny. A full head of blonde hair.
Starting point is 00:09:11 And a full head of long blonde 613 synthetic hair. Yacky. So then I get in the room and then I'm so scared of like general anesthesia is scary. Getting put under is scary. I know it's literally a surgery that is nothing. Everybody gets their appendix out, but I was so scared. And of course they gave you the drugs and they go,
Starting point is 00:09:29 this will take the edge off, which means later you won't even remember being in that room. I don't even remember going to surgery, but then it just sucks. Cause I had to miss all of our gigs for the week. I was supposed to DJ a Spotify party. I had to miss my party at my bar. I had to miss our Halloween gigs after putting all the work into the rehearsals and the costumes, anyway, it just sucked.
Starting point is 00:09:47 Oh, that's right. Yes. All of that. You did a lot of rehearsals. Videos, costumes, rehearsals. Yeah. And now. Motherfucker.
Starting point is 00:09:54 It'll take, you know, you have like come and go flu-like symptoms after an appendectomy. So that'll be the next like 10 days at least. It's just like chills or like diarrhea. It's just so fun fun and cool so now for the tricksy motel which we're filming this week i have to do like caftans and stuff because i can't even do like compression wear because look you should work into a diarrhea storyline oh i'll see this though i'll say this do you want to there's something they don't tell you about getting really sick you do lose weight and you lose it quick.
Starting point is 00:10:26 I'm not recommending you get sick. I'm recommending because I finished. So I'm two weeks out from the marathon. So I was supposed to be two weeks out. And now this happened. So I was already really thin from running. And then this happened. And I saw a picture of myself in this hospital.
Starting point is 00:10:39 And I was like, bitch. Honestly, work. Like get on a red carpet now, bitch. Let them have it. I look like fucking elf on a shelf. Bald elf on a shelf. Throw a gown on that fucking dying woman and get her in front of the cameras. Get a bolt of fabric down here immediately.

You feel like Beyonce. The crowd is so amazing. I don't personally understand how anybody could be in that place.
Starting point is 00:13:54 It is so crowded. It is so hot. It is so packed. It is so like sardines. It's like, it's the only place I can be in that environment is on the stage. So thank God I get to do that. But it is, Mary, it was lit. What was not lit at all, the opposite of lit, was going from the stage to the dressing room,
Starting point is 00:14:18 soaked in sweat, to home, to the airport, and to do it all again. It is club, another club. You know what? I love both of these gigs. Because this is your first year doing LA. I've never done the back-to-back, and I don't think I could ever do it again. I do it every year, except obviously COVID and this.
Starting point is 00:14:37 How do you do it? How do you do it? You do your shit until – you lip sync at the boule ball until, what, two? Literally two. And then your option is to either fuck sync at the boule ball until like what, two? Literally two. And then your option is to either fuck around at the venue and go straight to the airport or like go home and shower. There's no fucking around. Oh.
Starting point is 00:14:53 So you like go home and shower and then, yeah. Or what? There was, I was like, there is, there's only going home and showering. If I had to go to the airport after the state I was in, Would it have been like Charlie Brown, like pigsty, like a cloud? Imagine that, but like aged 200 years. Like, because I wore,
Starting point is 00:15:14 I chose to wear the, I work smart, you know? So I say to myself, okay, you sweat a lot. It's a packed gig. There's no AC. Why don't you wear a rubber suit? What were you thinking?
Starting point is 00:15:28 Nothing smart, no smart thoughts. But here's the thing. I got fixated. I got fixated so much on this tiny detail under boob. Okay. For a venue that had thousands of people standing drunk with a smoke machine. Yeah. But I'm telling you, I loved it. It was so great. I had an under boob and I wore flare jeans. Yeah. And I looked like a farm girl. And it was absolutely not worth it.
Starting point is 00:15:57 It was not scary. It was not Halloween-y. It made no sense. It was so hot and ridiculous and stupid. But it was fun. A farm girl. And then, yeah, it was like hot and ridiculous and stupid but it was fun a farm girl and then yeah it was like
Starting point is 00:16:06 Lana Del Rey there's a part in Clueless where the teacher goes you can hit a few balls in those clothes she could be a farmer in those clothes yeah exactly that
Starting point is 00:16:13 that was you it was very that but don't you love that venue because they put so much production into the Halloween ball it you really feel like a star
Starting point is 00:16:21 because you're like whoa these massive screens and light show yes the DJ decks even look like Avengers yeah You really feel like a star because you're like, whoa, these massive screens and light show. Yes. The DJ decks even look like Avengers. Yeah. It's crazy.
Starting point is 00:16:30 It's awesome. And Mateo was there, which is always lovely. Yeah. And Mama, downtown was lit. After the show, when I was waiting for just to get out of there people were fucking crazy this girl on the phone was like it was like comedy because people were angry and upset but they were dressed like stupid you know characters like one girl was like like a peanuts a black girl was like a peanuts character I forget which like Charlie Brown whatever and she's like you fat
Starting point is 00:17:02 motherfucking bitch you fat ugly ass bitch just screaming on the phone and very like this message is for rachel yes why you took me off the motherfucking schedule and but in like um dressed as like um snoopy or something it's so funny and then on the drive home we would look at a bus stop it'd be one person just like with this crate i was just so magical i love that and then um so then you went home and showered went home showered um repacked because here's the thing though you have to lay the shit out that's soaked in sweat you got two hours you don't taste that you don't taste that because i had i was like oh i didn't think this through i have to wear the same thing a smart person would have been like well first of all no rubber suit but then at least if you're
Starting point is 00:17:51 gonna insist on the rubber suit you'd be like maybe a change of clothes so you don't pack fucking moldy uh so i'm not just locked locked and loaded with a yeast infection hello but so Hello. But so go to the airport. And I had, I had a very strange experience. What is it? I had the most delicious breakfast I've ever had in my entire life. At the airport? I mean, sorry, on the airplane. Oh, on the jet blue? On the airplane. Jet blue.
Starting point is 00:18:23 Did they turn it? JetBlue? On the airplane. JetBlue. Did they turn it? They turned it so hard in a breakfast way. I can't. Is it flat down seats?
Starting point is 00:18:32 Flat down seats? Flat down seats. Mama, I had the breakfast. If I could eat this breakfast for the rest of my life, I would say, yes, God, please, every day. Yeah. Please.

And then this is alternative drag within an alternative art form allegedly and then this is alternative drag within an alternative culture it's a yeah an alternative sect of a subculture of a whatever yeah yeah i don't like to be spooky i never have an inclination to be scary i just want to see them eat bugs i like it when they eat bugs bitch they tattoo them they really go off they i mean i listen i don, I don't want whatever the award is. You're not putting me in the ground with bugs in a coffin.
Starting point is 00:27:08 No, what's the prize? Although I bet it's probably comparable to Drag Race. It's $100,000. Are you fucking serious? Yeah. I mean, I get it. I get it. I get it.
Starting point is 00:27:19 Listen, I get it. And now that I'm a professional drag show judge. Oh, that's right. The cat's out of the bag. And also we now know the news. The last time I was healthy, London. Yes, I'm judging queen of the universe. Queen of the universe.
Starting point is 00:27:37 Alongside my colleagues, Leona Lewis. Vanessa Williams. Vanessa Williams and Michelle. Michelle Rodriguez. Michelle. Michelle Visage And Michelle. Michelle Rodriguez. Michelle. Michelle. Michelle Visage. Michelle Visage.
Starting point is 00:27:50 You know what that show made me think of, though? I can't say anything, but it did make me think of how blithely unaware I am of drag in other countries in general. I just think of drag as like an American art form. I know that that's probably wrong, but my references for drag are american drag queen so i forget about like a drag queen in i don't know peru yeah i never never think about it and then you don't think about like the cultural differences like we talk about the difference between like la and new york queens but it's that times a million when it's like another country yeah do you remember have you seen that video um it was like a viral video of a, of a, I believe she was a Thai drag queen who did a really spooky performance to I Will Always Love You with an, with the, with the hair that came down.
Starting point is 00:28:34 This one? Yes. That's, that's what, that's whenever I think of drag that's not American, that's what I hope for. That's what your point of reference is. Yes. I just love that so much. I think of, yeah, that's pretty, that's pretty up there. You know who I messaged?
Starting point is 00:28:54 This is, it was Halloween and I messaged Eva Destruction because are you aware of that iconic Eva Destruction number, the laughing track? Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, she invented like that clown look to that number and you know every drag yeah she was the first person to do that oh she was the first person okay but like it for some reason that number translates and speaks to everyone so drag queens everywhere will do a clown look and do the laughing track and like whatever no one owns songs i hate it even on local level how it's like that's her song like whatever unless britney's here, how it's like, that's her song. Like, whatever. Unless Britney Spears is here doing it, it's not her song.
Starting point is 00:29:25 Right, right, right. But I messaged Evelyn was like, how do you feel on Halloween every year when you see literally your number you invented just being done everywhere? You know? What'd she say? What'd she say? She just was like, it's just, she was just like, it's crazy. I mean, I can't really feel any way about it because it's constantly being done.
Starting point is 00:29:44 So that is weird. Yeah. It's like, I's crazy. I mean, I can't really feel any way about it because it's constantly being done. That is weird. Yeah. It's like, I suppose it would be the equivalent. It's like, I don't even know what the equivalent is. The other like drag songs that everyone does would be like the get on up. But like, that's not even a unique POV. It's just a song.
Starting point is 00:30:01 Yeah. It's just a song. Yeah. Like it's a, it's a. Like if you saw someone doing i don't know the log lady knock on wood what would you say i did so i i saw somebody doing a mix that i like um like copied from the internet or it stole the file um probably copied it from the internet like i like a spoken word mix into like the exact. Like, like a spoken word mix into, like the exact thing. It was like a spoken word part into a thing and then to another song.
Starting point is 00:30:27 And then it just did the whole, put it together like that. And I was like, and I was in the audience and I was like, and I'd been performing that for like five years. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:38 It was so strange. It was like, you're like, what are you, what are you doing? Also, there was a song in Russian. Work. So it's like, you know what happened to me once and this is horrible because i don't even remember the girl's
Starting point is 00:30:50 name one time i was touring clubs in the uk like five years ago and apparently this girl opened for me and did that number that's like um first i did it i can't do it alone from chicago yeah and she would put in like um i think i don't know what she did And she would put in like, I think, I don't know what she did, but she would put in like the Macarena or iconic dances. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I, she opened for me and did that. I didn't know that.
Starting point is 00:31:10 I thought I thought of some brilliant original material. So then when I toured the UK like two years later and did that as an opening number, people were like, did this rich,
Starting point is 00:31:19 famous drag queen really lift a number from her opener and then tour it in her country two years later? And I felt so bad because i i would have by the way if i thought somebody had done that of course i would have
Starting point is 00:31:29 never done it right and i especially wouldn't do it in their country after they toured with me but i had no idea who you think you're fooling like who would you who are you fooling yeah i felt bad but i had no idea and i was was just like, especially on a local level, like a local drag queen is the last person you should steal anything from. So even if it's accidental, I was like, I feel so shitty. Right, right. If you're going to steal it from her, you should buy it from her. Yeah. Versus like someone stealing one of your numbers.
Starting point is 00:31:59 It's like. What's homage then? Yeah, because you're like kind of known. Well, I don't want to say known. People watch out for then. Yeah, because you're like kind of known. Well, I don't want to say known. People watch out for you. Bitches beware. No, bitches actually beware. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:14 Well, speaking of that, I was hoping to, I was really hoping to go put my, you know what, and something else in the drag this weekend. And it did not, Mary, nothing of the sort. And it did not marry nothing of the sort. It did not occur. Nothing of the sort. It did not occur. Nothing of that nature even remotely occurred. It was nothing going on.
Starting point is 00:32:35 There's none of that, like, I don't know. It's all online, I guess, which it always has. But at least before there was Jacques. So we go over to Jacques after the show. Well, isn't it Grindr now? I mean, that's where the people are meeting up with the girls nobody's on craigslist nobody's doing that well because right because it's they don't do it anymore casual encounters doesn't exist anymore i guess but so we went over to jocks to just do a little tiptoe little tiptoe
Starting point is 00:32:58 tiptoe just dead you went and dragged jocks yeah because the show ended at like 10 we show ended at 10 o'clock so we just tiptoed over i got in the dumpster um i got in the dumpster same same lovely smell and um it was just so disappointing there was not one man in there giving me like a sideways glance or like a shifty like it, very sad. Did you go up to your apartment and knock on the door? No. Let me in. Yeah, let me in. I used to do the bathroom.
Starting point is 00:33:32 I used to live here. No, because they kicked out the person. It's a whole, there's a drama, drama. They're turning him into like, you know, crazy condos because the rents in that fucking neighborhood, bitch, out of control. I was talking to a bartender milwaukee and they were like halloween this weekend was so crazy they were
Starting point is 00:33:48 like this one patron was drunk and belligerent and knocked off my glasses and he said i had to spartan kick them out the door and i said what is a spartan kick he said when your foot it lands flat on their chest and they fly backwards and i said oh like from 300 i said why did you do that he goes because he knocked my glasses off i, then how do you know it was them? Blind as a bat, just kicking someone in the chest, like serves you. Probably an old woman who was like, can I use the restroom? Boom. We talked about Eden should get a rage problem.
Starting point is 00:34:22 So like instead of being helpful and doing assistant duties, she's just beating the shit out of people. She flies off the handle. Flies off the handle for no reason. I was like, where's your assistant?
Starting point is 00:34:32 I thought she should be helping you pack up. Oh, she's upstairs beating the shit out of the bartender. The first thing she does at the gig is wrap her fist like Fight Club.
Starting point is 00:34:39 Yes. Yes. And that's like, before you know it, it's just a UFC like tournament instead of a show show I thought that'd be great well I think we should tell people that even though we just told them that we were going to quit the bald and the beautiful we're back for quarter four we'll be back through the holidays
