Please welcome Shangela. Hallelujah. Hallelujah is in the building aka Hololisi. I live for that. I'm glad I was able to give you that name. And I've been writing the whole time

I go, I hope Shangela remembers me because we worked on this project years ago. Come on Vanity Fair. Let me let you know something. I saw you at the Golden Globes. I was off my face and I think it was walking towards a Netflix party. I saw you and I go, Shangela. And I'm trying to write, I was off my face and I think it was walking towards a Netflix party I saw and I go, Shangela! And I shot Turner

and I said, hallelujah! Yeah, you did it very gracefully. You're like, that motherfucker drunk. And I kept it moving. That was my intro to Shangela. Remember that one time

I had yelled at you and I was wasted? Yeah, remember? Remember when the security had came for me and they was like, get that man out of here? I was like,

we did a video talking about drag slaying. She called me her trade. Oh, that sounds about right. That sounds fairly accurate. I'll bring up the photos, and you'll be like, oh, it was you. That's my trade. Right.

Okay. And then that's when they tackled you. Okay. Okay. Right. Exactly. I was like, so you have a restraining order. Well, look, Shanzel, we are going to get to know you much better in a moment.

But first, I'm going to let to know you much better in a moment. But first, I'm going to let people know what we're talking about today. You know, Lacey put me onto a little bit of a scam of a parent who was very distraught after their Mercedes-Benz went missing and the way they solved that problem. We're also going to talk about Apple getting into a little bit of a mess with the Supreme Court. Elizabeth Warren saying nah to Fox News, some disturbing new laws that might go into effect in the state of Alabama, as well as, you know, young people talking to Netflix saying don't take away our shows because we will walk. And a few other scams since we have Lacey here. And some Game of Thrones talk because I know Shangela is also about them thrones,

just like we are. But before all that, Shangela, can you tell us something from your search history that is a little revealing about who you are? From my search history, hmm, I would say that something I like to tell people that I'm originally from a town called Paris. Texas. Oh, yeah, we got two Texans in here. I'm from Texas. Where are you from?

I was born in Terrell. I know Terrell, Texas. Okay, that's by Waco. That's where Jamie Foxx is also from. Yeah, Jamie Foxx is also. My mom went to school there. Oh, my gosh. Come through, Lacey.

I love that. Well, Paris is in the northeast of Texas, about two and a half hours from Terrell, Texas. And, yeah, a lot of people don't know that I'm from that small town. I know y'all think I'm French, but country as hell from Texas. Yeah. Dude, most people, like what is the big thing in Paris

aside from you coming out of Paris? Well, you know, there's also an Eiffel Tower. Oh, there is? Yeah,

but it has a huge red cowboy hat on the top of it. You can Google this. Look at the images. There is. I've taken many pictures in front of it. Also,

everyone always, when I say I'm from Paris, Texas, they go, oh, there was a movie about that, but no one's ever seen the movie. But yes, when I say I'm from Paris, Texas, they go, oh, there was a movie about that. But no one's ever seen the movie. But yes, there was a movie made

called Paris, Texas. Are you going to make the new Paris is Burning? You know what? After watching Game of Thrones, I think I might have to. What do you think is something that is overrated?

Overrated. Gosh, something that is overrated. I mean, can we go with underrated? That would be me. No, I'm kidding. I'm kidding. I would say something that's overrated. Eating dinner with a large group of people.

I think that's a little overrated. Like you want to take everybody to dinner, but you really can't connect and have conversations with everybody at the table. And then when the check comes, you go to that whole like split the bill drama you know it's overrated just take one person two people a four-person table is good for a conversation for more than four overrated just screaming it's too much what do you do when the bill comes because what I like to do is I look up at the ceiling yo I hate that I used to waitress so when the bill would, there was always one hot shot person would be like, oh, I got it. And then they would like not tip me at all.

Oh, for real? No. Yes, yes. I waited tables for three days. I had a job at a place in Texas called Papado Restaurant. Oh, yeah. Ponch a train sauce in the building. Excuse me, but the menu was so big to learn.

Oh, yeah. I was like, oh. So I made it three days, enough to join that they had a softball team. And I was like, oh, I want to join. So I joined that. But then also you had to roll silverware. And rolling silverware is a hard part of it. A shout out to all the servers out there.

Y'all do your thing, okay? Because not only do you bring food, but a lot of times you have to roll silverware. I want to work at a place of chopsticks. Just do that. Because silverware, you have to do it. It was so much. It was so much work. What was the best job you had that wasn't being you?

Best job that I ever had would be, oh, I used to be an after-school program for, like, leader for, like, six-year-olds. Okay. So it was super fun because basically all I did after school was play with them for three hours. Because they really didn't have real homework. They'd be like, can you draw this line? Yes. And then you're done. Like, which one's a square?

Yes. Oh, very good. You better do that, Johnny. Come on, let's go to the playground. What do you think is something that is underrated aside from you? And your performance in A Star Is Born. Yeah. Oh, thank you so much.

That was so good. I would say what's underrated is, well, I mean, I'm super into it, and some people that I talk to are not as into it as I am, but Scandal was one of the best shows to ever hit television, ever. And I know that later on in the seasons that people started, like, falling off. But I stuck through all the way to the very end. And I will go back sometimes when I have free time, and I'll just watch, like, episodes over again and be like,

okay, y'all had turned it. And then recently I just met, and please Lord don't let me mess up this man's name, Guillermo I was about to say Del Toro and I don't think that's right. But anyhow, he played Huck. Oh, I know who you're talking about. And he's fantastic and amazing

and I totally like, and I'm sorry I'm butchering your name. You deserve way better than this. Oh, Guillermo Diaz. Yes, Diaz. Thank you. I said Del Toro. Excuse me. Oh, right. Right.

Yes, yes. I remember he was babbling and shaking. Yes, yes. And Olivia came up to him and yes. Thank you. You remember 852, 852, 852, 852. There was 752, 752, 752. Okay, this is scandal stuff.

See, you don't know this lady. No, I do know this. I'm letting you speak. Oh my gosh, yes. Listen. Listen, I'm listening to you. Okay, this is a chance. She's letting you speak. Oh my gosh, yes. Listen. Listen, I'm listening to you. She's letting you hold court right now. Oh no, oh no. When he was shaking

down at the train station. See, I like you. Yes. Scandal put me on to the government and they tricks. B613 is a lie. It's real. Thank you. True. Wouldn't you, for you, okay, so you stuck all the way through because around the time when Olivia got kidnapped and there was that

whole auction going on that was when I was like they were trying me in that season and then I stuck around for the next one and then I was like what happened they did try to turn Olivia into the mad queen if I could just go there with a Daenerys

type similarity but you know what Olivia If I could just go there with a Daenerys type similarity. But you know what? Olivia Pope represented something, I think, not just for women, but also African-American women. And for me, as a gay African-American drag queen watching, I just love to see a person who looked or had a similar background to me in a position of power like that in Washington, D.C. And especially during a time that Obama was also in the White House and you had skin. I was like, okay, we are tearing stuff up over here. She was running things.

And I want to be the next Olivia Pope. I got a million white coats. You got coats and bags? That's all you need? Oh, because she had bags. That bag would be right there in that arm. And red wine. How's your red wine game, though?

Oh, the duvet. Oh. bag would be right there in that arm. And red wine. How's your red wine game, though? Oh, the Dubonnet. Oh. I need the Dubonnet. Wow. I will watch my place then. And finally, what's a myth, Shangela? What is something people get wrong that you know to be? Or what do some people think they think is true that you know to be wrong?

It could be anything. I was going to say that I can't sew, but that's actually true. I was going to say that I can't sew, but that's actually true. So I would say something that people think that's a myth is that – Is there something that you constantly find people realizing that's not true about drag or something they didn't know? Yeah, that drag takes like 20 seconds. You know, we'll get – thankfully I I work as an actor a lot now, and we're just working in period. And people will say, like, okay, so how long do you need to get changed and dressed?

And I'll say, well, it'd be nice to have a good, comfortable three hours. That's from, like, shower to be able to walk out of the door fully padded, hair done, everything. They're like, three hours? I thought it was like 30 minutes because they watch Drag Race, and on Drag Race it's, they cut it together. Yeah, and the girls are having conversations and going through drama. Next thing you know, they're ready for the stage.

And that is not how it works. So are those moments even about three hours, two hours maybe on the show? Yeah, well, they give us, it's flexible. Because they'll say like, ladies, okay, you have two and a half hours today to get ready for the runway. And then they'll come in like, ladies, okay, you have two and a half hours today to get ready for the runway. And then they'll come in like, ladies, 45 minutes. And you're like, wait a second. Now, we know we ain't got no watches up in here.

Right. Because it's like being in a Vegas casino. There are no clocks on the walls. Oh, wow. You don't have a phone because they take all your access to outside world. So no phones, no computers, no nothing that would have a time clock on it. Gotcha. Right, right.

So you don't know timing. So you're like, i know damn well that it ain't been no hour and a half right now hold up do people ever did it ever get there like that where people like i want to see proof that it was that time well yeah i think that some of us i think in coming back for later seasons like all stars you you start to be like okay now i've been here well for change i've been here three times already, now I've been here. Well, for change, I've been here three times already. Right. But I've been here before and certain points you're like, I want to be my best on the main stage.

Yeah. I understand we have a time limit, but come on. I know that wasn't two hours. So I'm going to have to, can I speak to somebody, please? Right. I'm very,

can I speak to y'all's manager? Not to get this full geish on, no. Yes, thank you. You better know something, mom. Turns into Karen and asks to speak to the manager. With the Bluetooth headset in? I would put on the other wig and be the manager, okay?

Y'all know the manager wig. Oh, shit. All right, let's get into the stories of the day. Just off the rip. Lacey, you asked me, like, did you hear about that dad who called the police and said the child was abducted to get their car back? And I said, what? Yes.

What? What. What? What? What happened? What is going on? So they actually don't have the man's name listed, which was so disappointing to me because I want to, like, follow him on Instagram. I want to, like, be his best friend.

But basically the Oakland Police Department and the California Highway Patrol issued an Amber Alert notifying the media on their social media accounts and everything to help find a three-year-old girl. And this girl is cute. This little girl is very cute. I will be looking for her. But early Sunday... Not that I don't look for y'all ugly kids. Wait, weren't you against Amber Alerts?

Listen, don't. You're like, I turn them shits off. Don't do that. Yeah, I turn my Amber Alerts off. Wait, you turn them back on. I remember. Didn't you say you turn them back on? Yeah, I turn them back on. don't do that yeah I turn my amber alerts off okay wait you turn them back on I remember didn't you say you turn them back on yeah I turn them

back on for all intents and purposes for the court of public opinion I turn my amber alerts back on and I'm looking for every Rachel and

Tiffany I'm looking for all of them but basically so the girls early Sunday the officers arrested the girl's father on suspicion of making a fake

police report according to the Oakland police the man told officers his daughter was kidnapped so that they would find his stolen car more quickly. Wait, so the whole. Oh, so his thing was like, I think someone stole my daughter with my car. So he basically knew his car got stolen. And he was like, if I report my car stolen, like the police is about to be asleep. They about to be eating donuts, you know, kicking it.

But if I say like my cute little daughter in the car, then they'll actually look for the car more quickly. It's a gray Mercedes Benz. I mean, it's an okay car. Someone comments and was like, Mercedes isn't even foreign no more. That's a,

that's a citizen. Which body style? Um, the C, it looked like a C class to be honest. It don't even, it don't even really look like something. Did it have a car seat, though?

Ooh, I truly do not know the answer to that. I feel like there was probably nothing in the car that was indicative of his daughter being there. I just, yeah. Oh, man. That's a bold move. If I was a dad, I don't know if I could play around with my daughter's safety, even knowing she's fine, to be like, oh, she's kidnapped. Right. It worked, though.

They got the car back. What? They did? Oh, is that when they're like, where's the kid at? And they're like, what? she's kidnapped. Right. It worked, though. They got the car back. What? They did? Yes. Oh, is that when they're like, where's the kid at? And they're like, what? Yeah, exactly.

They're like, I just boosted this car. Then he was like, oh, damn, here she is right here. That's so crazy. Wait, is she in her room? Oh.

See, that's one of those lines that you can't even try to cover up later. Like, what was he thinking the long game was on this? Like, okay, I'm gonna get the car back. They're gonna come in

and be like, oh, we didn't get your daughter. They're gonna be like, okay, well, at least I got my car. Thank y'all so much. Y'all have a great afternoon. Thank you. And then close the door and lock it. Look at the people.

I think they're still here. Shit. She's like, Daddy, can I come out the closet now? What the fuck did I say? Daddy, I want some juice. I'll take you in a Mercedes in a minute. Yeah, he didn't think that went all the way through. He truly didn't.

But now he's facing felony charges. Damn. Wait, what is the charge? Just a false fake police report? I mean, and even that, like a fake missing child. Because I'm sure a lot of police resources, the second they say a child is missing. Oh, yeah. They go into full action.

The child is so cute. So I know they were looking extra hard for her. So wait, if you were the police chief, you would be like, let me see the photo first. I'm just saying, that's the photo that you put that on the news. People are like, oh, yes, we got to find that one. Yeah, we have a fire source. They don't put all the girls. All the girls don't make it to the news, honey.

Okay? Only the real lookers with the promising futures. But we're just trans. Please, if I ever go go missing put a nice photo of me okay right have me looking cute should we just use your twitter avatar which photo would you like to just officially in case you do go missing we can have an agreed upon photo that we we put out there whichever one just make sure there's nice lighting because that can always alter a photo you ever take a photo and you're like i knew i looked good but damn right lighting got me together yeah and one time yeah i i think i took a selfie when i used to do production i was like yeah let me get this selfie real quick i'm like this is dramatic and i didn't know i had cheeks i tell everybody turn toward you always want to put the

light behind the camera baby put that sun even if you have to squint that's going to be okay you put the light behind the camera and you'll get a lovely photo. Beautiful. You don't want to be blown out. The last thing I want to say is I'm kind of upset that they didn't release his name because I want to help this man. I want to link him up with whoever Jussie's people are who got him off for this

same charge. Look, it's not right. So listen, if you want to Jussie's people out there, you hear this. Y'all go help my mans out in Oakland. I'm not going to touch that one. Let's move on to Apple, who is in a bit of a, I don't know, trouble, I guess. Because developers are suing Apple, right?

Yeah. Saying that the App Store is like a monopoly. Because if you make an app, they get their cut. 30%. Damn. And you're at the will of the Apple Store or the App Store to do whatever you have to do. And because of that, they have to raise prices. And they're saying, look, it's a racket.

And then on top of that, it's hurting the consumer because now the consumer has to eat the price of their commission. And this whole thing was going on back and forth in the Supreme Court. And essentially, the Supreme Court basically said, OK, well, I think consumers can sue Apple, actually. We believe that this case does mean that the pricing and the way the app store is structured negatively affects the consumer. Now, Lacey, you just wrote this as you can sue Apple for charging you in the app store. Yeah, that's exactly what I read. Like what you just surmised, what I read was, I can sue Apple.

Yeah, I guess. Listen, I was personally victimized. Victimized, huh? Because you were using Windows Vista. Yeah, I was victimized by Tim Apple. By Tim Apple himself.

Vestimization. Well, look, so, you know, the decision wasn't necessarily one that was like there are any punitive damages it just basically says okay well a lawsuit could go forward in a lower court now right and you know on one side the plaintiffs might say like look what we're gonna say is that uh you know because i have to raise my prices what are we going to do apple doesn't know what they're i don't know there are a lot of people trying to figure out what the counter argument could be. It could just be that they might just say,

alright, fine, we'll take a smaller cut to try and dead the case. Maybe there'll be some kind of settlement. Yeah, settlement. Do we all get... Have you ever gotten one of those letters like, Verizon has recently made a settlement. You may be up for a dividend. I'm like, okay. I never get the check. Right.

I don't either. I think you must have to be really persistent about getting your cut of those coins. The one time I got it was because I bought like, it was like for the first PlayStation or something. And it said that like, I was entitled to, I'm not even joking, like $4.86 or something like that. And it was just like,

I would collect my check. Oh, yeah. I mean, I was like 16 at the time. $4. Yeah. So all you had to do was like, just fill out this stub and send it in, and then a check in like eight weeks later. That's so much work. For $4.86. It is. It is.

But you know what? Small checks matter. They do. Because, you know, and work again, sometimes if you get a job, like even a little role on a little show, you get a residual check. And I've gotten a check for $0 8 cents once. And I was like, bitch, that's more money. I'm going to spend more money in gas going to the bank to drop this check in. But I was like, you know what?

Because Jennifer Lewis told me this. Good friend Jennifer Lewis. She said, when I see an 8 cent check, I see $8,000. And I was like, well, when you cash it, though, that ain't what it is. Yeah, I don't think that's what they... Yeah, I don't even know if the bank will give you eight cents. She's a visionary.

Yeah, a visionary. But it's about – you know, that's about manifesting. Right. You use that to give yourself the feeling of $8,000, and then you allow the universe to give you that $8,000. It's not about the check. It's not about the amount of the check. It's about the mindset you're in.

Okay, Miles. Turning your radio antenna to the frequency of abundance. Miles has on a headset now. This has become a TED Talk. And I'm walking around. And I'm asking you to please send money to my Venmo for more secrets because I can show you how to look rich on Instagram. Yeah, those checks. Oh, there is a bar, though, in L.A. called Maeve's Residuals where if you bring in a check for less than a dollar, they used to give you a free drink at the bar.

Oh, wow. Yeah, that's how they used to help working actors. Oh, that's so sweet. Or get them drunk. Yeah, exactly. And it's like, all I get are these U5 rolls, man. Right. Trying to get something featured.

You might need to keep that little check. So it was a 5-4 decision, and basically what they're saying is if you own an iPhone, that you could be eligible to sue Apple. I was like, I've been in the eye gang for so long. Yeah. You know what I mean?

I mean, Apple does not want to go to court and have their business looked at in a legal context anytime because it will always reek of some kind of near monopoly. So I think their best bet is to just figure out how to get, just make this case go away. And I think a lot of people just think, I think it's just going to be changing the commission levels to try and keep the developers from saying, okay, fine. I guess you're not gouging us. I would also love a retroactive iTunes gift card for my own personal victimization. Reparation. Vistamization.

Vistamization. I'm going to show up to court with a neck brace on. What's that from? It's like. Like these apps were so expensive that my neck. I didn't realize how much money I would spend on Facetune. So, Shangel, you said the iTunes store does this too with music? Yes.

Like when music used to be 99 cents, we'd upload a song. Please buy my song, Working Girl Professional, currently on iTunes along with others. But that being said, sold a song for 99 cents. 30 cents of that went to iTunes immediately. That's crazy. And then you make 70 cents. But if you wrote the song with anyone or you produced it with anyone, then another percentage of that money goes to someone else. So a lot of artists, if you don't write your own music or you produce your own music, you end up giving little pieces and chunks.

You ain't got nothing left. Right. That's why Nipsey was a visionary. He was like, I'm not giving any of the publishing of any of my music to anybody. Because that's what ends up happening is, yeah, you get cut up nine ways by the label, your representation, all that. And you got an eight cent check. There you go. That's how the eight cent check happened.

And that's how you can go get a drink in LA. Well, Shangela, come with me to court. Bring some crutches. Bring some crutches and we're going to sue Apple. Baby, I have seen Judge Mathis, Judge Judy. I can go to court. I can help you. Oh, Hatchet.

Oh, Lord. I even knew Judge Maybelline. Okay. Remember Judge Maybelline, okay? Judge Maybelline. Remember Judge Maybelline? When Judge Maybelline left the gig because they wouldn't buy her no wigs? What? Yes. Wait, what judge was that?

Judge Maybelline was the head of, was it Divorce Court? She's a fabulous African-American judge lady. She's strong-willed, okay? So Judge Maybelline used to be behind the judges. Oh, yeah. What was it for? It was Divorce Court. Divorce Court. What was it for? It was divorce court. Divorce court.

But before it was Judge Lynn Toler. That's right. Okay, then it became Lynn Toler. So she took over divorce court. Or she was divorce court lady, right? Right. And in Judge Maybelline's renewal contract, she wanted them to pay for her hair. She was like, I need wigs.

And they were like, we ain't paying for your wigs. And she was like, I'm out. That's a crazy thing to leave on just shoot it gets like 20 million dollars an episode and they wouldn't give my sis Maybelline a wig

they sure wouldn't give her they wouldn't pay for her hair that's true they're like fine it's not gonna be real hair though and she was like excuse me she was like

we'll give you synthetic she was like where's the lace where's the lace where's the lace justice for Maybelline is this virgin Remy then I'm out

Maybelline wasn't getting a virgin Remy no definitely not alright we're to take a quick break and we'll be right back. Daphne Caruana Galizia was a Maltese investigative journalist who on October 16th 2017 was murdered.

I know I'll go down in history. People are talking about women's basketball just because of one single game.

Every great player needs a foil. I ain't really hear them. Why is that? Just come here and play basketball every single day, and that's what I focus on. From college to the pros, Clark and Reese have changed the way we consume women's sports. Angel Reese is a joy to watch. She is unapologetically black. I love her.

What exactly ignited this fire? Why has it been so good for the game? And can the fanfare surrounding these two supernovas be sustained?

Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. apple podcast or wherever you get your podcast all right and we are back so uh elizabeth warren now uh we saw like about a month or two ago bernie sanders went on fox news to do a town hall and that was a lot of people were like damn he got a lot of them to cheer for a lot of his policies granted i'm sure there were a lot of people were like, damn, he got a lot of them to cheer for a lot of his policies. Granted, I'm sure there are a lot of Bernie supporters in that audience. Oh, yeah. Absolutely. Elizabeth Warren was recently offered the opportunity to also have a town hall on the network, but she gave it a hard pass.

And as she says, I mean, for good reason. She says, quote, I love town halls. I've done more than 70 since January, and I'm glad to have a television audience be a part of them. Fox News has invited me to do a town hall, but I'm turning them down, and here's why. Fox News is a hate-for-profit racket that gives a megaphone to racists and conspiracists. It's designed to turn us against each other, risking life and death consequences, to provide cover for the corruption that's rotting our government and hollowing out our middle class. Ooh.

Okay. cover for the corruption that's rotting our government and hollowing out our middle class. Oh, OK. I think that's a good I think that's a pretty sound description of what's going on at Fox News. A hate for profit racket. And I think that's pretty fair assessment. I mean, because on one hand, I do like the idea of her being able to get her ideas in front of an audience who already hasn't their mind made up about her. That could actually maybe soften them. of an audience who already has their mind made up about her that could actually maybe soften them. But at the same time, you know, a lot of her argument is also that if she goes on there, that would make Fox's ad salespeople be like, you see, this is a safe place to buy ads because we have Elizabeth Warren on. It's not a controversial person. And that's what, you know, we all know

money runs everything. And the boycotts that have hit Fox have actually been like the most effective in terms of them trying to change up the kind of people they put on And the boycotts that have hit Fox have actually been the most effective in terms of them trying to change up the kind of people they put on or the kind of bullshit that they air on the airwaves.

So, you know, I like that logic, but it's hard. Sometimes it's like, I'm like, damn, but can we be idealistic because we're living in hell already?

But you know what? Do your thing, Elizabeth Warren, because I would like, it would be great if that hate for profit racket label stuck to Fox, especially when you consider on the daily basis the kind of shit that comes out about people and, you know, keeping us more and more divided. I'm glad she did this. I think that if she'd gone on there, it would have maybe bolstered ad sales for the network.

And they're trash. Like, yeah, I'm glad that they're finally receiving some kind of punishment for the just reckless things that they've been doing. And also, what would this town hall really be if it was run by and shot by Fox? Like, who there is really open-minded? Yeah. Who's that trying to have their mind changed?

I think it's probably a mix, just like the Bernie one was, right? Because you'd think on one hand, if it's Fox News or whatever, like, everybody in the audience is going to be of a certain, you know, political bend. Yeah. But I think in this case, you know, political bend. Yeah. But I think in this case, I mean, I think if people hear, oh, Elizabeth Warren's going to speak there, you'll have, you know, in equal numbers, probably more people who are actually want to see her. Right. And maybe some people who want to.

Right. Well, I feel like they would be like, you know what? I'm going to show up for my girl because I feel like she's not going to get any love. So a lot of people will come. And plus, I don't think they want an audience that would totally be against her. But I'm also with Elizabeth Warren. I agree with you guys because, you know, sometimes we have to take a stand against businesses

that don't support the communities or the ideals that we support. And I agree that it would be great for her to get in front of an audience that may not agree with her to kind of change their minds. But honestly, if they're going to get their minds changed, they may click over to another network where she's going to be. If they're interested to hear what Elizabeth Warren has to say and are even open to her ideas, because sometimes you can be talking to people that don't agree with you

and they don't even listen. Their mind is already made up and that whole thing. And I think that her not supporting that particular business, it's like when we don't sometimes eat at organizations or support organizations that don't put money into the gay community or support other organizations that are against the gay community. Well, you know, yeah, that's one. But however, you know, I even know gay people that work for Chick-fil-A.

Yeah, I know a ton. So it's hard to like, but I know they do give a huge amount of money to faith-based organizations that do not support LGBTQ issues in our community. So it's hard sometimes, though. But I like the fact that she stood up on this. Now, that could be one reason. Or the other reason, she'd be like, bitch, I ain't got time to write no speech. I ain't going because, you know.

Look, I've already done 70 town halls. I told y'all. I've hit the pavement. Y'all know what I'm talking about. Yeah. Tell them I don't want to go because I don't like hate speech. Tell them that. Yeah.

But I think just in general, it is a good strategy to just always hit these companies in the wallet because that's really the only way people end up giving a fuck is we found out when you fuck with people's money, it doesn't even matter if the things are fucking racism, abortion rights, global warming. It's when their fucking checkbook is hit. They're like, oh, maybe I do care now. Right. What the fuck?

But all that? Okay. Anyway, but that's just how the world goes. Now let's move on to Alabama, a state where I'm just praying for you guys because it's tough out there. Sweet home Alabama. Especially with the people you have in your state government. So the Alabama Senate just passed a bill that would ban abortions from the moment of conception. Like, why do you even call it a ban on abortions?

Just say there are no abortions allowed in the state. Don't be like, well, from the moment of conception. Because otherwise, what I'm getting abortion on no fetus. Right. I don't know. But I think that's you know how women are. They love their abortions allowed in the state don't be like well from the moment of conception because otherwise what i'm getting abortion on no fetus like right i don't know but i think that's you know how women are they love their abortions they're just getting them all the time even if they're not pregnant right like a two-for-one abortion yeah this one they gave me two so i'm just gonna get the bill it's it's similar to the one that passed in georgia i mean like you know this one won't necessarily punish people who seek the abortions, but the doctors who administer them could face up to 99 years in prison.

And the only exceptions that are being made for an abortion are when the mother's life is actually at risk, not even rape or incest. Wait, walk me back through this one more time. Alabama just passed a law that says that abortions are illegal. From the moment of conception. Yes. Well, we didn't answer that. Yeah, right.

Exactly. Which is already a month. So they just banned abortions. But isn't there like federally, can't they not do that? Well, see, okay, because of Roe versus Wade, that established certain reproductive rights. The whole point of all these bills, even in Georgia and even Alabama, Missouri, wherever, there are many of these laws going to affect Texas. The whole point, just to get to the Supreme Court, to get them to overturn Roe versus Wade, because those are the things that people are going to sue

on the basis of. They're like, oh, this is unconstitutional. But then they're going to keep arguing that to the court where now we have supreme court justices like brett kavanaugh and uh gorsuch who are very conservative they're catholic pro-life you know people and the whole point you know a lot of the that's why the judge stacking from trump and the conservatives is very dangerous because it's just meant to be like well obviously this law is on its face absurd but that's the point because we just need to get it to the supreme court so we can make a bigger argument to just say, oh, you know, maybe we don't need to protect abortion rights. And that's what all this shit is. And that's why it's even more – it just feels so disgusting, especially when you have – like, I mean, a lot of the times before, a lot of pro-life people would pretend like, well, of course, in the case of a rape or incest, we would make an exception.

But even when you look at this, a doctor – a rapist wouldn't even look at ninety nine years in prison. Oh, no. You know what I mean? A rapist wouldn't look at any time in prison in most of these states. Right. And when you hear. Right. So the few Democrats that were in Alabama were saying like, this is bullshit. And one of them, state Senator Roger Smitherman, asked what would happen under the bill to a young girl who was the victim of incest and found out she was pregnant. And one of the Republican state senators said that he hoped that the bill would result in young women learning to seek physical and mental help quickly if they are abused. What I hope, and this was his quote, what I hope is if we pass this bill that all young ladies would be educated by their parents, their guardians, that should a situation occur like this,

you need to get help. You need to do it immediately. Then also they can get justice What? You know what this is? This really bothers me because I'm also from the South. I'm from Texas. And this just reminds, and I'm from a small town, Perry, Texas. We talked about that. And this just reminds, and I'm from a small town, Gary Perry, Texas, we talked about that.

It just reminds me of those situations where people, some people feel they have the right to tell others how to live their lives, number one, and also feel that they are just living this pristine, right way in which everyone else should just fold under. I believe in a woman's right to choose. You know, it's your body. You know the situation best. You and your doctor, you do that.

But there are these people, especially in places like Alabama, unfortunately, but they're all over the country, to be honest. They're all over the world. And they're radical, and they just feel like they know the right way. And because these people, a lot of them, are elected into government positions, they feel like they have to please their masses. Number one, they may also think like this personally. But then because they have constituents that also they rely on for votes in order to support their way of life and who they become. And donors too.

And donors. And especially in a place like Alabama where the majority possibly could feel this way in their community, then it's just not right. And what do you do? It's great that people like these Democrats are standing up and saying, yeah, this is some bullshit. And they're just going to run it all the way to the top. Y'all ain't got nothing else to do.

Literally. Nothing else to do but sit here and wonder who put their penis inside of me and let a semen come out. And if I want to have my baby or not, that's what you have time to think about. And you're not going to take care of the baby, and the government's not going to take care of those kids yeah foster kids the likelihood of them going to prison is extra it's it's extremely higher than obviously kids who are raised in even a single parent home also like there's not a lot of help for these kids when they leave the foster

system i uh volunteered recently at the hollywood food. And they work in partnership with the Salvation Army. And they have kids come out of foster care. And at 18, they're allowed to stay at the Salvation Army houses for a year and a half. A year and a half. That's it. That's it. And then you're out on your own. And can you imagine at 18?

You have no support. No. And they are learning how to make their bed, how to be a roommate, how to apply for a job. All the things that you got to learn because you had parents who wanted to have you. Right. And it's just like you're not going to take care of these kids once they're alive, so why are you so concerned with when they get here? Yeah.

And just with the Georgia bill, it just makes women stay property, basically. Yeah. You have no agency. They are going to decide what is—the state decides what is best for you. And if you exercise agency over your own body, then you will go to jail. Boy, men hate women. Well, you know what? Another bill they're considering, and this is not a joke, is that so rape victims who falsely report a rape would go to prison for 10 years and also pay their rapist legal bills if they press charges against their assailant and they are not convicted.

What the actual fuck? That is another bill that's happening like it's crazy it hasn't been it hasn't been voted on this is a thing that is being proposed like people are out here saying like what about this idea now this other the abortion bill has it got through the senate it will go to the governor's desk and governor k ivy is not sure if she's going to sign it because many people is a female governor yeah exactly? Yeah, exactly. And you'd hope with a lot of people saying, we will boycott the shit out of this state. Right, sis, don't do this. Don't make us have to show up at your office with these hands.

Yeah. Okay, I'm not trying to do that. Yeah. With these hands and this semen still in my body. Excuse me, hello, I want to talk to Kay. I just had conception. Right now. I just had conception right now i just had conception out in the back parking lot this is a man me and him just had conception and i want to talk to k

k you gonna take care of this baby take care of your baby k oh man uh well let's uh let's move on to something a little bit lighter i know y'all like a scam oh yeah i know you love a scam oh adore a scam uh because look there's nothing higher than a scam and i. I know y'all like a scam. I know you love a scam. I adore a scam. There's nothing higher than a scam. And I don't know if this is a scam or just some bullshit for rich people. But I just read about some shit. $143.93 bottle of water.

That comes from a 15,000 year old North Atlantic iceberg in Canada. But you get it at Sam's Club. Now, thousand year old north atlantic iceberg in canada but you get it at sam's club now i don't know there's also apparently in japan there's a 616 per liter jewel water from japan and i gotta tell my mom's side of the family yo we gotta get it together like what is that uh but according to an arctic researcher who like has seen the water from like icebergs or these glaciers says that the glacier water tastes, quote, about as clean as anything can taste.

And I don't know how the fuck you would know that. Right. Like, I've never, I mean, you know when you drink water that has a taste to it. Right. Most water, you're like, okay. I guess you don't know until you slurp it on that glacier water. You know, is it like the water from the Waterboy? You know, remember the Waterboy?

He had that little tiny thing. Oh, he did from the glacier, yeah. From the glacier. From. From the glacier. From an Alaskan. This is glacier water. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, Bobby Boucher with the glacier water.

Damn, I wonder if Feruza Balk is also hawking that like she did in the movie. That's a deep cut for people who forget Feruza Balk from The Craft is also in the Waterboy. Yeah, I mean, again, I would love to know. Maybe we should go in on a bottle. Maybe we could like. We could go in on a bottle. Maybe we could like. We could go in on a bottle of water. Yeah, we could split a bottle three ways. Right.

Oh, seven? I mean, I'm not trying to pay that much. I mean, look. If only for a sip. How much is it again? $143.93. Oh, come on. That's nothing.

We pay more for bottles in the club. Girl, I will not. Let me tell you something. We forget, though. When we drink the bottles in the club, we forget how much we pay for it if the bottle is really good. Right. Because it got you full. But a bottle of water, you know what I think is if you're going to charge, there are lots of things that are priced and you go, now, I would never.

Right. But if people want to sell it for that and somebody can afford it and they want to be a fool and spend $600 on some water, get your life. But it's like when I pass certain luxury items in a store, and I'm just like, they want you to buy this raggedy sequined fabric three-yard dress for $1,200. Bitch, I have 18. Let me call Ophelia down the street, who I know who sews, and let me go get this fabric. No.

It's just for those who want that lovely glacier water, get your life. But I will sit over here with the Dasani and I'll be just fine. Oh, Dasani. As you pick up a bottle of Fiji. You better shut up. You better shut up. You're fucking with my checks. I imagine this is the water that Oprah probably waters her orchards with.

There's probably something nicer that she's drinking. Yeah, she has access to shit we don't even know about. But hey, this water could do wonders for you. This water could have your skin clear. This water got your boyfriend texting you back. You know what I mean? If I see you sponsor this water on your Instagram page and do hashtag ad, I'm going to be so mad

at you. Listen, I'm about to tell y'all how this water changed my life. Flat tummy teeth. Flat tummy glacier water. Flat tummy glacier water. Jamila, Jamila will be coming for you. Oh, yes. You don't want that smoke.

I pray for the day that Jamila drags me on anything. I mean, what's the most, what's the thing that you felt the worst about spending on that felt like over the top? Like a luxury item that you felt like, I could have went with the regular thing. I mean, I've paid for some air before. What? Yeah. Like an oxygen bar, you mean?

Yeah, I did like, you know, like a little $100 for some air. Whoa! $100 for like oxygen therapy? Yeah. Or was it, were you at like the Las Vegas airport? No, I was at the Las Vegas airport. Yeah, I knew it.

At that one weird aqua thing where everyone puts a... Yeah, when they rub you. That is a fucking scam. When you got up when you got up I hope that you turn to the left and sang Tony Braxton

breathe again breathe how's it to live with no air okay what about you Chandra sunglasses

oh okay well here's the deal because I would see like a pair in this and I'd be like oh yeah I really want those

I'm gonna spend money on those these are like Gucci and then I lose them. I lose sunglasses and watches like nobody's business. As you can see, I'm not wearing a watch today. I buy cheap sunglasses now because

I lose them, I drop them, I break them. And then it hurts me so much when I've spent money on something and I leave them on the plane. I'm still sad about this. I had a good pair of good Gucci's. I mean, they were good. I spent good i spent a good well you know mama's got checks here and there so i spent about you know four or five hundred bucks on these sunglasses i was like oh i'm laying up in the bees i'm gonna be lovely i got on the plane took them off i should have put them in the case

I left a passport on a plane because I got off and I left it in the seat pocket. And then I left. Why would you put your passport in the seat pocket anyway? Don't worry about it, man. I was 17 and fucked up when I got on the plane.

Minor details. He left that. Well, I was sober. I was asleep. I woke up in the day. It's like, oh shit, we got to switch planes. And I left. And I remember I didn't realize it until I got off the next plane and was like like trying to get off yeah and I tried calling but honey when you sit

there was back in the day I used to sit in basic economy they ain't trying to look for your shit in basic economy you sitting in first you in 4d they're gonna look for your stuff no you called and they had the sunglasses on the cleaning crew just came out I haven't seen them so we're like we're gonna let you know if we find them. We will. See, and Shanzel, that's how I know you're still grounded. Because you still feel the pain of those sunglasses. Oh, I do. I would have knew you flew off into the flyness and the skyness if you were just like, meh, whatever. And I got a new pair when I got to Ibiza.

Wrong girl. Yeah. Okay, let's talk a little bit about Netflix and all these streaming services that are happening. So Disney announced they basically have full control of Hulu now. little bit about netflix uh and all these streaming services that are happening so disney announced they basically have full control of hulu now if you don't remember when disney got bought fox they run like 25 of the movie industry right now right because they own marvel they own all this shit they own all these properties now the simpsons just every star everything is now under the disney umbrella and with hulu now being under their operational control, they are making moves.

Now, wait a damn minute. Isn't Disney coming out with their own streaming service? Yes. And they bought Hulu. And now they want my black ass to pay for another streaming service when they own the other streaming service and they can just stream all the stuff through that service. That's how they get people on their Disney+.

They spent a lot of money on that Disney+. Now, this is where it gets interesting. So Netflix, right? They have a lot of licensed content. They have stuff from Fox. They have stuff from everybody that's just on there. And a lot of these people in the NBCs and the Disneys of the world had said, we're doing our own streaming services.

That means shows like The Office and Friends will be leaving Netflix. Stuff like Avengers, Moana, all that stuff is going to go to the Disney one. And then Netflix is going to be kind of like, oh, we got all these 900 originals you can't keep up with. We have those. Now, this is an interesting stat. The Office and Friends are some of Netflix's most watched shows.

In 2018, people watched 52 billion minutes and 32 billion minutes, minutes respectively of these shows. Now, there was a survey done asking people, like, what happens when they leave? Now, May 2nd to 5th, Hollywood Reporter poll found that among Netflix subscribers aged 18 to 29, 49% of them would cancel Netflix if The Office or Friends and Marvel and Disney content were all removed from the service. Yeah, you, like, stream The Office or Friends, or Friends in the background while you're doing other shit. I mean, also, too, 18 to 29, nobody's paying for Netflix.

You know what? That's right. I'm using my mom and Netflix. Let's be real. And so a lot of analysts have said that a lot of people don't go to Netflix just for one show, so they might be good. But I watch a lot of those shows. Just passively, too.

Right. So I don't know. But also, I don't pay for Netflix. I love them. Wait a minute. How do y'all not pay for Netflix? Because my mama pay for Netflix. Oh, so you're one of the five.

Yeah, exactly. Yes, actually, there's like four of us. Oh, all the tiles? Like, you have your own account on there? Yeah, I have my own tile. Oh, look at you. That's good. That's because my mama didn't want me messing up her streams.

So I was like, I stopped right here. you gonna start watching right here and i'm living off my mom too but that's because she works for the hollywood foreign press and she just gets that shit for free so i'm not trying to put my mom out okay yeah i actually treat my mom very well i love that we tried to flex on netflix though like we're all leaving they're like don't pay anyway that's that's like when i tried to flex on my bank back in my poorer days. I was like, I've been in Bank of America for 10 years. I'm leaving. They said, where would you like us to send this $73?

I said, uh. That used to really work, though. That used to really work. You'd be like, transfer me to cancellations. Right. And then they'd transfer you. You'd be like, transfer me back to customer service, please. Y'allall were supposed to

really cancel yeah that should always work though with the cable company because you know you'd always get that introductory deal that only lasted for the year and then suddenly that bill came on the 13th month you're like why the my internet just double and then all you had to do is be like i'm about to leave and that used to work until like when spectrum and charter and cox and all them shit became one fucking thing that's when i remember i tried to do and they're like okay and i was like and i'm like it's a monopoly it will still work with serious though oh we're not serious right no we are not i was like mom you still have serious because she got it free when she got her car i was like

it's been three months are you paying 20 bucks a month? She was like, uh-uh. I call them until I leave every three months and they give me back to $5 a year. I'm like, yes.

Okay, that's a good hack. They start to know who you are. Do you watch Netflix a lot? I do. What's your shows? Okay, so Netflix right now,

I just finished watching a special because I'm going to be interviewing Ryan Connolly on my podcast later on today actually. And so I've binged all eight episodes

in like 20 minute episodes. It's really good. And then I will go to Netflix like, oh, Dear White People is now on there. I watch that.

I watch movies like, hello, I'm in Hurricane Bianca 1, Hurricane Bianca 2 and an animated show called Superdrags all on Netflix.

I love those. Just plugging myself. But in addition, like I just like to watch all Scandal episodes for sure. Right. Is the whole series now on there? All seasons. All seasons, y'all. All seasons, y'all.

I'll power through those last couple. Yeah. No, you really can. And even House of Cards, which is on there, I love. So yeah, but this conversation reminded me, I was supposed to cancel Hulu, and they're still taking money out of my account. I forgot because I signed up to watch some show. I think back when, before I had access to On Demand, RuPaul's Drag Race used to come on Hulu on VH1 a couple days later. So I would log in to do that.

But I was like, I'll just watch it for a season. I'm going to cancel it. I've got to go. I've got to cancel my program Shenzhou's leaving right now I'll make a note make a note

no I then I think about though would I pay for the NBC one would I pay for the Disney one because I do want

I do want to watch The Office I'm exhausted and I only own the first three seasons on DVD I'm exhausted and I don't even

pay for Netflix I was like girl wait a second they call us striminals They call us striminals Streaming criminals I'll be a striminal till I die And it's trash because I work in TV I'm about to plug my shit

But be like don't steal my shit though But like I pay a lot on Hulu Because I have live TV which who would have ever thought That live TV would become a luxury You should just have a cable for that joint. But I pay for live TV and I pay for HBO and I pay for no commercials. So I'm giving Hulu a coin. Well, at the end of the day, we cut our cables and shit and we end up paying so much with all these streaming services.

We're pretty much back to the same shit. Yeah, I'm going to invent cable again. There you go. See, she's smart. I like her. It's called cablet all right well let's ideate on that uh during the break we'll be right back definitely caruana galicia was a maltese investigative journalist who on october 16th

How are we? We good? We're so good. Just checking in. Oh, so good. So good. So good. I'm doing so, so, so, so, so. I'm doing so, so, so, so, so. I'm doing so, so, so, so, so.

I'm doing so, so, so, so, so. I'm doing so, so, so, so, so good. Good, good, good, good, good, good. There we go. Thank you. My bad, my bad. We always, damn, Lacey, last time didn't we do Fugees? Yes.

The spontaneous singing when you're in the building. The Texas energy is big. I messed that one up though. Shanzela looked at me like, I did. She said, that's almost so, so good. I was like. When you Shangela looked at me like I did it's almost so so good I was like when you get acknowledged by Beyonce

like Shangela has you have to come correct that GLAAD Awards performance oh my god so good girl I was I was like nobody tell me

just let me go out here and do it I just don't want to be nervous and then everyone right before I went out kept going she sat in her seat she's out there

she's out there just so you know she's on the left just so you know she's out there she She's out there. She's on the left. Just so you know, she's out there. She's watching. No pressure. Yeah. No, no pressure at all, too.

I mean, it didn't look like pressure. You killed it. It was a great moment. The stamina. I got tired by the end. I was like, whoo. Still going. Yes.

The spirit of Beyonce had come upon me, girl. I was excited. They said, just don't go in her direction, though, because Julius might tackle you. I said, okay. But I mean, I would like that. Julius is fine. And in person, fine. Come on, climb this mountain, fine. Our Game of Thrones

bit is later. Well, I want to check in with Britney Spears because, you know, for a long time, there was this whole, like, what's going on with Britney? Is she, obviously, she was under that conservatorship, and a lot a lot of people were you know theorizing that maybe she was not really uh making the decisions obviously legally she can't being under that conservatorship but when she went into uh the mental health facility people like what is going on her instagram is weird like what is

happening so we found out like in a court proceeding that she was basically saying like my father made me go there and i did not want did not feel i had to be there so that was giving a little bit of credence to uh the host theory from britney's instagram right uh who were talking about this for a while uh shout out to them uh for really blowing that thing open um but now recently her manager larry rudolph longtime manager, says that maybe she might be done performing for a while. Her manager said that? Yeah, well, her longtime manager, like Larry Rudolph, not the Sam Luffy guy who would like you to sue. Not the person who she's currently working with.

No, no, no, no, like the dude who was around from the beginning. Oh, okay, so he's no longer getting a Britney coin is what you're saying. No, he's like one of those people who's like, look, I'm always here for you. And I've always been there, but stuff's going on. I thought he was her active manager. I was like, that seems anti-intuitive to be counterintuitive. I think he does on some level. And based on this quote, he must be involved because this is what he told TMZ.

He says, quote, as the person who guides her career based on the information I and all of the professionals who work with her are being told on a need-to-know basis, from what I have gathered, it's clear to me she should not be going back to do this Vegas residency, not in the near future and possibly never again. He said, he claims that, or I'm sure he's, I think telling the truth,

he said that Spears called him, quote, every day last summer, excited to tour, and currently she hasn't called him in months. She clearly doesn't want to perform now. And he said, I don't want her to work again

until she's ready physically, mentally, and passionately. If that time never comes again, it will never come again. I have no desire or ability to make her work again. I'm only here for her when she wants to work. And if she ever doesn't want to work again, I'm here to tell her if it's a good idea or a bad idea. So, wow. I mean, I knew something was going on, but not to the point where, from people that I had, like, did any of you see the Vegas residency? Yes. So one thing I heard consistently was people felt that it was Britney,

but she wasn't really the same Britney, or at least giving the same type of performance. Did you sense that as a fan? Well, I didn't get to see it live. Gotcha. I actually lived in Vegas for about eight months in 2017, 16, doing a residency of my own right next door at the Paris.

And I have a lot of friends who dance with Britney and I would watch all the videos because I love seeing them and I love seeing the show. People would, I would get,

you know, people saying like, oh, she's dialing it in. It wasn't as fantastic. But if you're a Britney fan, you live for the concert because it's a production.

But here's my thing. If Britney never wants to work again, good for Britney. She gave everybody, because she's given us almost her entire life, y'all. She was a Disney kid.

She went from that into being a pop superstar around the world. Britney Spears is a legendary name that people know all around the world. She has kids. She has two, right? Yeah. Two boys, right? Right, two boys. Honestly, she's pretty much

worked their entire lives and not to say that women don't work you know but like when you're a performer it's kind of like

and a pop star and a celebrity it's round the clock and if she wanted to just check out and move to Bulgaria and be like just me and my boys

gonna do our thing she has given us I feel everything that she needed to give us. I don't begrudge her anybody saying, I'm done doing this thing. And she got the checks. Right. She made $43 million last year.

Yeah, and she had to pay a lot to Kevin. I think they ended up, she had to pay more to K-Fed when she got the Vegas residency because she started making more money. And he has custody of the children. I mean, I look at Britney like how I look at Mariah Carey, and that's no shade. But it's that if I've watched Mariah Carey get up on stage and phone in a whole performance, and I lived. I was like, yes. Y'all better lift her arm.

She better not do nothing on this stage. I love it. So if Britney wants to continue performing and it's just like, hey, I'm here. Yeah, if she wants, by all means. But I don't know if she does but I don't want her to be sick I don't want her to be unwell yeah I agree with you there

but if she wants I hate going to a performance and somebody dials it in I'm like bitch I gave you my good coins to come up here and see now I went to Mariah too and I loved her because I think because I knew all the hits and I sang them more the lady sitting next to me was like, bitch, I paid to hear her, not you.

That being said, I would hate to see someone dial it in. So if she doesn't want to do it, don't do it. But what I would hate is if she didn't want to do it and just did it. And then we go there and we're like, where's the party? I mean, you go see Gaga. Oh, she's in it to win it. She's giving you 1,000% from

start to finish. And that's what I want to see on stage. Well, I mean, look, Brittany, she's in it to win it. She's giving you 1,000% from start to finish. And that's what I want to see on stage. Yeah. Well, I mean, look, Brittany, we're here for you. We are. We're always here for you. Free Brittany. Yeah.

I mean, she might be. But for real, that's a new T-shirt right there. But really, would y'all want to have, I mean, honestly, I think about it, and sometimes even making decisions on what to eat for dinner, I'm like, ah, it's too much to think about. To have someone, and especially your father, someone who you trust, handling everything for you, I'd be like, all right, it's cool. Yeah, but then there's like, you know, from what I was reading

and hearing in Brittany's Instagram podcast, there was a lot going on too where it seemed like he was making deals on her behalf. Oh, yeah. That she didn't even know was happening. And then they're like, what happened for this? We just did a perfume, like an Estee Lauder deal fell apart because she didn't really know.

And then when they went to court, they were like, oh, well, she doesn't know. And then they're like, well, then how can you even legally enter a like what? Right.

Like the person we thought we were. What? So there was clearly other things going on. I'm sure that more of that will come to light as the story develops.

You know, those parents of big celebrities, you always have to watch out. Amy Winehouse. Did you ever see the Amy documentary? Oh, her father pretty much killed her. That was hurtful. Well, let's do a quick check for some shade around the internet.

Oh, Lord. So Paris Hilton was on Watch What Happens Live. And, you know, she played the Plead the Fifth game. And she had an interesting moment when she was asked about Lindsay Lohan because that beef is kind of simmering. Let's just hear this Paris Hilton shade turned up to the extreme. Paris, you've

recently said that you never want Lindsay Lohan's name spoken in the same sentence as yours. Paris, say three nice things about Lindsay Lohan. She's beyond. Okay, one.

That's a pretty nice one to say that she's beyond. Lame and embarrassing. Okay, all right. She's beyond lame and embarrassing. Okay. All right. She's beyond lame and embarrassing. Oh, my God. We just went back to 2003. We're in the time capsule. Wow.

To where either of these people were irrelevant. When that beef happened, wow. Y'all know what? I'm sorry, but that sounds like something. We don't know the story. I'm telling you right now. There is a story. Behind that.

Oh, of course. A certain number of people know. Because a girl that'll hold on to a grudge for that long over, you know, what we saw was just some BS. What was the version that we thought it was, according to the tabloids? I truly do not know. They used to all just go to the club and, like, put their coochies out to the paparazzi on the way. And they were friends. Right.

And then they stopped being friends. I think it is a boy. It's got to be a boy. Y'all know what it was because she started calling her fire crotch and they were like laughing about it. Right, yeah. And so Lindsay was like, yo, why you going to be fire crotch? And she was like, you know what happened.

And it was a boy. Y'all know. Why do girls usually get over other girls? It's a boy. Right. Either you took my makeup. No, they can't even get over you stole my makeup. It was a boy. Right. Either you took my makeup. No, they can't even get over you stole my makeup.

It was a boy. Yeah. It has to be because I can't think of anything else. I didn't have any business ventures together. Yeah. This was back when Paris was relevant and hot was the thing.

And then last year, Paris called her a pathological liar. Boy. It was a boy. The only thing is Liz has been unhinged. And then there's a video from 2006 that came out

of Lohan calling Hilton the c-word ooh Nancy crackhead yep I mean Lindsay's unwell though

she's been out here yeah no no no I mean if you saw Lohan's Beach Club I have not watched Lohan's Beach Club but I I always

look for Lindsay's return yeah I was fine it was Lohan's Beach Club was just a mess because the people who fucking worked at that beach club did not have their shit together. It was like these toxic bros who worked in Vegas and were like, I smashed every waitress in Vegas, dude. I'm like the top bottle service guy in town. He's like, now I'm crushing it in fucking Mykonos with Lindsey. Oh, God.

But it was crazy. All the dudes who were like these sort of buff, sort of bottle service type guys, they all had the same backstory. It was like, when I was a teenager, people thought I was ugly. And it was like the toxic glow up basically was the theme throughout many of these people's backstories. Anyway, next piece. Recently, the Congressional Black Caucus said the dream ticket for the next presidential

election will be Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. Now, I don't agree with that for many reasons. And I go over that all the time because we don't need Obama's grandpa to be the president again. We have people who are actually trying to solve problems in this country and not just run off a brand recognition and familiarity. So recently, Kamala Harris was asked, hey, like, what do you think about that? You know, the Congressional Black Caucus, like all these Congress people said,

like, that would be the dream ticket. And yo, Kamala Harris came with it. Uh-oh. I think that, sure, if people want to speculate about running mates,

I encourage that because I think that Joe Biden would be a great running mate. As vice president, he's proven that he knows how to do the job. There's certainly a lot of other candidates that would make, for me, a very viable and interesting vice president. Wow.

So before it was Kamala would be the vice president. And she just said, oh, I would love for him to be the vice president. No. He's very great at being number two. Yeah. He knows his place. Yeah. Y'all not going to sit up here and disrespect me.

I'm running for president. Yeah, right. Ain't you running for president? Yes. That's like if you show up to a job interview and they're like, yes, we would love to hire you as a server. Bitch, I came here for the manager position. You signed my resume, right? Right.

So y'all just going to put me in the back with the silverware rolling it again. Okay, love it. Okay, well I'm about to spit in the poncho train sauce. Okay, now. Game of Thrones. Let's get into it. Y'all. Wow.

Look, if you guys are still not caught up, shame on you. Just skip to the end where you'll get the other really good information. But if you're here for it, then let's continue. Now, I just skip to the end uh where you'll get the other really good information but if you're here for it then let's continue now i just want to lead off this segment with a bit of news that i found out which is there is a petition on change.org right now that has over 16 000 signatures of people demanding hbo remake this season quote with competent writers. And I mean... Go change that or. Yeah, I'm sure.

And we are looking for more signatures, y'all. Yeah, I will sign. I will sign this evening. I'm sure HBO would love to reinvest the just ridiculous amounts of money they were putting

into the season. Like, oh, man, because 16,000 of y'all were noisy enough. D&D, they have been so smart. Have you watched their recaps after the episodes, too? Sometimes, and sometimes, yeah.

They swear they so smart. They swear they so deep. They're like, so really what we did with Daenerys this season is we wanted to take her arc from basically regular bitch to crazy bitch. And we did that in these ways. Like, what? We did it in two scenes.

It's like, oh, okay. I mean, their backstories are funny. Like David Benioff's dad, I think worked at Goldman Sachs and like worked for the Bush administration. And then like D.B. Weiss was fucking one of the dudes from the Eagles assistant. Like a weird ass backstories.

You know, qualifications. Yeah, exactly. But anyway, getting into that. Now, you know, Sanzal, you've been talking a lot about Game of Thrones on your podcast. And one thing that was really resonating with me is the way Cersei went out. It was not right. It wasn't right because I needed it to be a whole of a lot more dramatic than that. It should have been an epic lip sync for

your life. Oh, okay. Two queens stand before me. That's what you should have. Oh! That's how RuPaul just shows up in Westeros. I love it. And she's like, prior to tonight, the two of you were told to repair

an epic battle. Good luck, and don't fuck it up. And then bitch, let's go. And they could even do it to this girl is on fire, right?

Because you know, Cersei blew up the septum and Daenerys got the dragon burning shit up. It would have been lovely. They needed a moment together. The fact that Cersei, I'm sorry,

spoiler alert, that Cersei got crushed by some rocks at the end. All of Celioma killed Cersei got crushed by some rocks. Yeah. At the end. All she did. Mesothelioma killed Cersei. Yeah. Rocks?

Rocks? Rocks? Rocks? Drink? What? I mean. You mean it wasn't built a tomb and accepted in the world? Rocks?

Yeah. Rocks? Rocks? Rocks? Rocks? The one who was hiding from the kid, but the kid was hiding from the world? Rocks? I don't.

Yeah. Ugh. I don't know. Part of me felt like this was the only thing that was very Game of Thrones-y. Because, okay, because you don't often see someone who's like so evil really get what's coming to them.

I mean, they did it with Joffrey. They gave us him that slow choke out. They did. They did it with Ramsay. Yeah. Ramsay Balden. Well, I guess, yeah, yeah. And then I guess Littlefinger also had his death, like, yeah.

Yeah, he just got his throat slit. He got his throat slit. The Cleganes, the mountain was thrown with his brother. They had more time in their death than Cersei did. Yeah, that was the crazy thing. Also, I didn't like that they did this whole love reuniting thing. Like, I think they had built up Jaime's character to be so much more than that. And then they were like,

no, he's got to get one last fucking sister. And also, Euron pulled out of fucking thin air. Out the water. Out the water, bro. He was like, oh shit, it's you. Hey, my man, let's have a knife fight real quick. Why did they have Euron pull up like Taraji P. Henson did in Acrimony?

How did you get off the boat? How did you get to this cove? At this perfect time. Yes. And now you want to fight. Because I was like, I would have been fine even just with the way it was going if he just got burnt up on the boat. Done.

Your ride was done. It wouldn't have to make sense to me that he somehow pulled his body up. We also didn't like your ride that much. Who told everybody that we liked him and that we wanted to see him have an epic death? I mean, since we doing

random stuff, let's just have Yara just show up from the Iron Island and be like, uncle, I'm here too. I'm gonna whoop your ass.

Right. Really. Yeah, she's like cooking some shit on the beach with some women. Wait, hold on.

Who the fuck? Oh, shit, y'all. Hold on, let me put this out. She over there with a beach ball

with a face painted on it and a bikini. Oh. With the sun reflector and a beach chair. Oh, wait a beach ball with a face painted on it. In a bikini. Yeah. Oh. With a sun reflector and a beach chair. Oh, wait. Hold on. Let me pack this up because I have business. Oh, it's time for war?

We finna fight? Why? I was waiting on you at the door. And even the last thing he said, like, I killed Jamie Lynn. Like, what? What is this? Since when were you mad at Jamie? What?

Well, I mean, look. Clegane Bowl was, for me me the thing that made it worth watching because at least i felt i got satisfaction out of the clegane bowl wait a minute but cersei's exit at the beginning of clegane bowl was my favorite oh after kyburn gets his melon split yeah he he had the mountain through clive right against the wall like yeah and then cersei was like okay let me get my purse. I'm going to just get on by y'all. God bless. Yeah, it was.

She's like, ooh, my Uber's here. Yeah, she just said, okay, y'all don't want to share Uber? You know they only wait for two minutes, then they start charging. So I got to go. Hey, because she just made herself so small. She tipped right at the side. Good for them. They were locked in. She truly didn't even care about her little advisor just being head smashed to smithereens.

She was like, that's none of my business. Okay. It was like that in Friday when Red's dad comes, like when he comes to get his bike, he's like, you know, that beach cruiser. And he knocks Red out and the dad comes up and he's like, you want some Tupac? And the old man's like, no. Pops right off. My grandmama gave me that chain.

Well, look. Who is the messiest character, we think, in the whole show? Varys. Varys. Yep. All right, agreed. Okay. Just wanted to make sure we were on the same page.

Yeah, yeah. Somebody made a meme that was like that. Because we don't know what that note that Varys wrote. All we know is we just saw, like, true heir to the throne. It said Jon. Yeah, it said Jon. We knew it was a message about that. And then his little birdies were definitely distributing.

I've seen memes on the internet that are like, Daenerys is the nastiest skank bitch I've ever met. Do not trust her. She's a fugly slut. Told him what he wrote. Did someone do the note from Jersey Shore? Someone should have done that. No, that's a good one.

Dear Sam, that night at bed when you left, Ron put his face in between a waitress' breasts. That's like the epic note from Jersey Shore. Bears was so messy. He lived for drama. So, you know, he died the way that he lived. That fire, I was like, really? Really, Daenerys? You're just going to be putting people on fire?

Why didn't he take his rings off, you think? Because he didn't want them to get fucked. Like, somebody could have them. He didn't want to die with them. He just knew something was coming. See, I don't know if y'all have ever burned before. But when you're burning, your skin swells. And if you have gold, I'm just kidding.

I don't know if y'all ever been burned live before by a dragon. He was like, y'all don't get my good shit. Right. Take these rings, put these right over here for my little girl, my little bird. My ash note. Thank you. I love that everyone acted so shocked, too. Like, Tyrion, everyone, when Daenerys, just like the bell stopped ringing and she was like, turn up.

Yeah. It's lit. I mean, she's been doing this for a minute. So, yeah. I knew it was a wreck. And, you know, I call myself the Daenerys Stormborn of drag. I still stick by Dany. We got one more episode.

Maybe we will see, you know, her come back to her senses. But I will say this. I knew that she had lost it in that first scene when Tyrion walked in the room to check on her. And, you know, her braids had been laid all season long. Bitch, that hair was wreckage times two. She had scratched her braids out. You know what Sandy was keeping them edges laid. That's what it was.

She's gone. Surely was.? Sandy was keeping them edges laid. That's what it was. She's gone. Surely was. Yeah. Nobody would braid that hair. Your hair is uneven. You look dusty. I think they're setting it up for Aria to kill Danny. And it's just so lazy to me.

I mean, you saw Aria get on her horse and get on Old Town Road at the end. She did. Got the dagger in the back. Got the dagger in the bag. Got my list in the bag. Literally. Plus, like, Danny can't come back from this. How she come back? Like, hey, y'all.

So I know I had got crazy. Yeah, that was wild or whatever. That was crazy, huh? Yeah. Man, what happened? No, listen, my dragon drug on. He gonna get a broom out here and start sweeping up. Yeah.

Yeah. I told him better clean this mess up. I got an idea. John, why don't we get out here and start sweeping up. Yeah, yeah. I told him to clean this mess up. I got an idea. John, why don't we get together and clean this shit up? Yeah. So who do you think is gonna be on the throne? Sansa. I mean, that's been the one where... Sansa's been surviving like a cockroach

and honestly, I live. Sansa was at home taking a smooth nap while Westeros was just getting roasted. She did. She did. She did. Honestly, I mean. Bran going to be her hands. I do think this.

If Jon is alive, like, Jon will not be alive with someone else on the throne. No. I believe if Jon is not the king, that's a function of him dying. Jon also has to die because I'm so tired of him just not realizing how important he is. He be out here trying to do hand-to-hand combat with a whole dead army. He was trying to fight a dragon by himself. He got up and started yelling at that joint. Like, you was just about to die, John.

Oh, so you were like, you're a manager. You shouldn't be out here. Yeah. He's like, you know what, Brittany? If you don't want to work again, you don't have to. That's literally John. Are you feeling it? No?

No. Okay. I see Sansa on the throne and then I see Bran just dreaming in IMAX next to her as her hand. Dreaming in IMAX. I saw there was a meme

that said that during the whole fight Bran is just over here watching IMAX with his eyes rolled back like, eh. He's just going to be next to Sansa like, eh.

Trouble afoot. Trouble afoot. Who do you think is going to be on the throne? I hope that it is a John and, you know what? Maybe it's going to be Biden and Harris. Double ticket. You know, that's John and Daenerys.

Okay, let them rule together. I don't know who's number two and who's number one, but I think that if they did it together, it'd be nice. But at this point, I'm just like, okay, let's just get to Sunday. Let's get to Sunday. This writing has gotten so sloppy. When Danny went the way of bitches be crazy, I just... Honestly, even then, and I was saying this a few days ago

when we were talking about the episode, if they had just moved the death of her second dragon to this episode and made that part of the turn, it would have made more sense at least. If they were waiting at the gates and the bells were ringing and then let's say one of the, Drogon or whatever, one of the dragons just got it

from the giant ass crossbow. Right. And then they're like, well, hold up. The plan was to not burn this shit down. And then you could have seen her been like, did you see what they did to my child? But y'all, let's not forget,

they chopped off Missandei's head in this woman's face. No, for sure. They killed one of her children, which were the dragons. Like, I understand that she was like, no, they ring the bells. I don't give a fuck. I'm still burning shit down. And, you know, I don't support the burning of women and children, obviously, but this is fantasy.

Okay, I'm glad you made that your official point. I was curious what your stance was on that. Yeah, well, you can burn them up until the point of conception. But after conception, you can't burn nobody no more. But, you know, I honestly feel like this is war. And they didn't come to support and help. And I don't think she should have burned the whole city. But she definitely had the right to go burn the Red Keep.

And she had the right to go burn Cersei and kill all of them. I think if she had just left the rest of the townspeople alone. But she was in postpartum depression, y'all. This one was having a... So she could technically... If we sent her to a therapist and a psychiatrist and they had to diagnose, she was in a state of like, ah, what is it called when you just have a traumatic experience? Temporary insanity?

Yeah, she had temporary insanity. Oh, so if it went to court, we might argue that. Right, she was not the mad queen. She was the temporarily mad queen. Yeah, she was just the pissed queen. Yeah, she was a hell of a piss. Oh, that wasn't mad. Oh, you don't want to see that.

Well, also, it was crazy to me that she really truly only needed one dragon this whole time, because she got a lot done with that one dragon, and we were getting so scared as they were getting killed. Also, you know those little mazes that you used to do where you take a pencil and you, like, draw, like, a little circle back and forth all the way through? That's how she lit up Westeros.

Okay. Recently, Bill Nye tweeted. I know exactly which one it is. Okay. Recently, Bill Nye tweeted. He retweeted a CNN story that said that NASA plans to put a woman on the moon by 2024. And he wrote, one giant leap for womankind, which is the intro that I say on Ariana's new album, Thank U, Next, for song number three, NASA.
