We’re back...kinda.
While MxMatched is on a break, Colana and Skittles couldn’t leave you hanging. This bonus episode is all about the moments that didn’t make it into the main pod—think off-topic tangents, side convos, wild takes, and unfiltered reactions .
You’ll laugh, you’ll cringe, and you’ll definitely see why some of this got chopped.
It’s real, it’s raw, and it’s still so very MxMatched.
Season 2 returns in September!

(01:20):
See, and this is what happens when I take gummies when I get
home from work. I did not take any gummies
today, but I did have too much coffee at work and then the
caffeine. I had a weird headache because
the pollen and also it feels thepressure's changing.
But it's not raining because it's not supposed to rain until
Saturday or Sunday. But I can feel, I can feel a
(01:41):
storm of Bruin. My brain is five day Doppler
radar. It's I'm so mad.
It used to like I'd get a headache the day it would rain
and now literally it's like a 5 day forecast.
Like if it rains next week, I have a headache this week.
But I fucking, I was at home doing my little household chores
or whatever and I, you know, took a quick shower 'cause I
(02:02):
needed to wash my hair and I getout of the shower and I like I
was like, why the fuck does my head hurt so bad?
So I took some, I took Excedrin and ibuprofen and just the one
of each just a little bit. I took Excedrin and ibuprofen
and I also took a Sudafed. And then I laid down for 45
(02:22):
minutes, woke up still had a little bit of a headache and I
had like my like my whole left nostril was just not with it.
So I did some fucking. I don't do a lot of it, but the
Afrin I keep my. Emergency bottle.
Yeah, so I did. I did a hit of Afrin in each
nostril. Hit of Afrin Yeah, make it sound
like a street narcotic. It should be.
(02:44):
It is bad but I can breathe bothnostrils.
Love it. That's rare for me.
Usually I've only got 1A. Deviated.
Set I do have a 90% blockage in my right nostril because that's
what the fans want to hear. Until I was 1920, I had a yeah,
sinus surgery. He broke that shit and put it
back that I was like, you could have made it a little smaller.
(03:06):
Well, they've got that's The thing is you can either do
rhinoplasty, which is like a nose job where you can do
septoplasty, which is where theyjust go up on the inside and
they don't do anything cosmetic on the outside.
Septoplasty is probably a littlebit cheaper because you're not
doing reconstruction or anything, you're just kind of
clearing out like scar tissue orwhatever.
But the problem is I'm an insurance so now I can't get.
Preach. Yeah, can't get septoplasty.
(03:28):
That was on my, that was on my To Do List this year before I
found out my insurance was goingto be $400.00 a month and I
cancelled it. Yeah, I was going to get
septoplasty and I was going to bother all my doc, my General
practitioner, to try and find a specialist to get diagnosed with
whatever autoimmune disorder I have and don't know about.
That's expensive, yeah. Well and now I can't afford to
do any of it. My dentist is calling me telling
(03:50):
me that my cleaning that I get in January, they're like, hey
baby girl, your insurance rejected it.
And I was like, I'll I'll get you your money when I can.
Just put that bill in the mail for me.
They. Will they the call was a
courtesy. Don't they'll mail me.
It's OK, she they know I told them I was like the insurance is
(04:11):
going to reject this and they'relike, well, it's showing his
active still so we can try and Iwas like work.
Have fun. Yeah, it's not going to go
through. It's not they thought.
They thought maybe. Power to you if it does.
Yeah, no. So I got to.
I got. Next paycheck, I got to go up to
my dentist's office. And here we are talking about
teeth. Wow, 11 episodes in.
(04:32):
Talk about what you know, right?I don't know.
Do what you. Know I hear that listeners like
consistency so you know. I am consistent there is that.
I love that. But I just had to ask because I
(04:54):
was nosy. I would love I I mean I want I I
don't have enough fingers because I just love language.
I think so. I used to want to be a writer.
So like, well, I mean, I guess Istill sort of I mean I write
occasionally. I know it's never too late to
self publish on Kindle. I.
You can do it. The American publishing industry
is trash, so I'd never be. I'd never have an agent.
I never have a publishing house.They'd never support me touch
(05:17):
and dials. Anything about that?
It's a nightmare. That's why I would self publish.
I have no choice. You can.
You can back me on Patreon. One of my favorite authors.
Yeah, I released the 1st 2 chapters and if you want to read
the rest of the book, yeah, subscribe to my Patreon.
Yeah, something like that. I mean, I have one of my
favorite authors I follow on Patreon and that's what he does
is he does illustrations that hework, he works with like
(05:39):
illustrators just to do illustrations of his characters
and he'll do, he asked Poles forthings or whatever.
He was doing a web comic for a while.
And then so if you support him on Patreon, you actually I read
one of his books like 2 months before it was put on Amazon
Kindle because he was like, I'm just going to give the file to
all of my. Back, Yeah, that's how I just
finished. I bought.
(06:00):
I didn't buy, but you know, if you have Audible subscription,
you get like a credit a month orwhatever.
I used my credit to buy an audiobook and it was a cute little
book, whatever. And there was a second one that
came right after it and I was like, Oh my God, I want to read
the second one. The second one was just on his
website for free. Like just go download to your
iPad. There you go.
I love that. It was fantastic.
(06:21):
I haven't gotten through it yet,but.
I just started that author. I'm I just started the 4th book
in the in the series he's on now.
I'm super excited. Not as old being readers.
I. Love reading.
I used to not love reading. OK, so did you have to take the
AR test, the accelerated reader test?
Alabama reading and math test. No, this was like just something
(06:43):
separate. No, I did.
Do you know what double S? Are oh, I know what double S are
because I well, I didn't give double S testing, but I was like
interning. Interning while they were.
That was something when I lived in South Carolina that we
didn't. Do that and then.
When I moved to Auburn, they were they're like we.
Got up three times a year. Went to the hallway and make you
(07:04):
read a little passage. I'm not a fast oral reader, but
I can fly. If you just leave me alone, I
can read a book so fast, so fast.
I finished Billy Porter's memoirin like 2 or 3 days.
I'm such a fast reader and I, I mean, I would like to think I've
good comprehensive skills. I did in second grade.
(07:24):
I was given this is the only trophy I've ever won.
I still have it. It's plastic, but I got I was
given a trophy in second grade for being an accelerated reader
gift. A child syndrome.
See the only reason I ever got so you had to get so many
accelerated reader points like every year.
You were pizza party, Yes. No, I never got to do the.
Pizza. And so I would always use the
Harry Potter books for my Accelerated reader test because
(07:48):
those were like 5075 points eachfor a book, especially when you
got into like the books 345 and 6.
Those the last three books are huge that.
Tells you how old I am. The 4th and the I think the 4th
or the 5th book is the biggest book.
The 4th book is massive especially.
The 4th, The Goblet of Fire might be the biggest.
There's just so much that happens.
It's so funny too, because like half of the book does not exist
(08:10):
in the movie. Like they they immediately like
the first day of the first day of school.
It's like, oh, the tournament bitch, where the first third of
the book is the regular school year.
Yeah, they're like, welcome backto Hogwarts. 2 months from now
we're going to do this really big thing, but tomorrow you got
class. Yeah, they skipped.
They skipped. All that shit and went straight
to the tournament. No I I wish I would have done a
(08:33):
pizza parties or whatever. No, I just read a lot because I
didn't have any friends. You either got a pizza party or
you got like a free ice cream from the lunch room or something
like that. No, I wish.
No, I did. I didn't need.
I did not need any help being asked to read all of all my
siblings. I'm one of.
I did younger I think it was theADDI couldn't.
Focus that that doesn't help. Yeah, no, I loved reading.
(08:56):
I immediately took to it. I used to in kindergarten.
I would literally in one sittingread the Junie B Jones books and
the Magic Treehouse books. And then my mom would be like, I
guess we got to go back to Target.
But it's expensive habit. I don't like to buy books
because I read them so quickly. I read the Hardy Boys books,
like just about all of them. I read all the Goosebumps books.
I still have all. The I read some of the
(09:17):
goosebumps. I still, I do.
I know. I think I give them to my
siblings. I don't.
I still have them. No, I did.
And then in fifth grade is when I sat down and started reading
Harry Potter and I, it became a vicious cycle.
I would read at the beginning and the end of every school
year. And I did that from 5th grade
until 10th grade. And I checked them out of the
library in 10th grade. And I like, I read the last book
(09:39):
and I was like, this has to stop.
It's not enjoyable. I like I'm just doing this
because I don't want to pick another.
Book, I think I remember when the 6th book, the 5th or 6th
book came out, I don't remember.We were leaving to go on a trip
somewhere and I was like, beforewe leave we're stopping by
(10:00):
Walmart so I can get that fucking book so I have something
to read in the car on the way. I don't remember where we were
going. But I remember the 7th book
because I remember my dad buyingit like when it became available
and he read it first all I had to wait for him to finish it and
he literally like the moment he finished it he literally like
closed it and like walked acrossthe living room.
(10:21):
He handed it to me and it was like, OK, Snatch, this is, you
know. The big moment.
I wish I could find a book series like that again.
You know that I was excited to pick up have.
You read Percy Jackson? No, you, I think if you liked
Harry Potter and you like Percy Jackson.
OK, so it's like myth. It's the Greek mythology.
I like mythology, but also all of the the the characters Rick
(10:47):
Riordan does a fantastic job of making them super relatable.
So like most of the kids have like ADDADHD learning
disabilities kind of situation because they.
Come on, no. Divergent, the excuses that
because they're all demigods, children, they're hardwired for
like battle. They're not meant to be sitting
in a classroom kind of situation.
(11:07):
But as the books go on, Rick Riordan did a really good job of
being like I, you know, he wrotethe first person like 2005.
So, you know, representation wasviewed differently then.
But as the books went on, he waslike, I want more, I want more
characters that are like diversefrom different ethnic
backgrounds or like, I mean, he's one, I'd say he's one of
(11:29):
the biggest mainstream authors. That's like, I'm going to start
putting queer people like real, not like like token like not
check box, like the characters are not queer so that he can say
they're queer. It just, they just are.
I love that all of the characters in all of the because
there's like 3 Series now. It's the original and there's
(11:50):
two like series that are in the same universe.
They all feel like fleshed out humans that are multifaceted,
that are capable of making mistakes, that are capable of
having like real emotions. It's it's.
I've never read something like it.
Interest. Yeah, I've been on a memoir kick
lately. I don't know why I.
Want to I want to do more stuff like.
(12:11):
That because there's RuPaul out there.
OK. It's the RuPaul memoir.
I hate it. You hate it.
Fuck. God, it was good.
OK, It was good. Well, he's lived so many lives.
And I think what made it better was listening to him read it.
Yeah, because there's an audio book of RuPaul reading it and
he's great like that. He's a great storyteller anyway,
So yeah, him reading his memoir,it was like some of it was a
(12:33):
little bit repetitive, but you know what it's it's a memo.
Isn't it probably a little repetitive?
But it was it was good. It was good.
All right, You ready to take a break and go eat some chicken?
Break and eat some. Chicken.

I did not put that one on that one.
You put that on that one. I didn't put this on here, Yeah.
You did. It wasn't me.
I don't know what they do. Literally it's just squishy.
(14:33):
You know what they do? To me, it means I always have
the purple microphone because I like purple.
When we're doing the live shows,I always give myself the purple.
You do. Well, I like it.
It's purple. I like the black one, it
matches. Myself.
Well also the black one is the one that I think is no, the
purple one is the fine one, the black one's the fucked up 1.
So I always have to remember that when Anita's about to
biscuit is a cut that out. No, she leaned over the in the
(14:58):
car the other day. Just Seth and goes baby, you can
call me. And call me Anita.
I just love the other. Was it I think it was brunch or
something. She literally it was either
brunch or it was the Friday showwe did before brunch, the sip
and serve show and we were talking before the show and she
was like, I really don't care that you call me Anita.
Just call me Biscuit on the microphone.
And then I literally called her Anita on the microphone.
(15:24):
I also got in trouble at Sugar Rush this weekend because I I
called Deja off stage. I called her Diamond because it
was a Beyoncé song and Diamond had already done a Beyoncé song.
So I guess my brain you. Should have played you could
have easily played that off as ajoke girlie.
I I did not because because the entire cast swiveled and looked
(15:47):
at me and I was like, I'm sorry.Also I'd like it to be known I
was hosting DJ ING and also I had my ring light and my phone
and I was trying to capture video of everyone's performances
so I'm wearing like 8 hats and awig and wearing pumps.
I'm sorry I forgot the the wrongor the right name or whatever.
(16:10):
I swear also. This next bitch.
Yeah, honestly, y'all get up forwhoever just went on.
That's what I'm going to start doing.
There's when we do the fresh faces.
I walk up to every performer. I got a clue.
New Drag Day. Stupid.
(16:31):
I walk up to every. I walk up to every performer
when we do fresh faces and I'm like, what is your name?
How do you pronounce it? That part.
And then I and then I tell them.I may still do it wrong but I'm
trying to be a good. Person, if it's something, if
it's something I really can't remember, I'll just do a voice
memo. Can you say that into my phone?
(16:51):
I'm I try to be considerate but some of y'all choose some names
that my brain just doesn't want to remember or say.
And then some. Some people choose names like
Razor. What?
That's kind of hot, Razor. This is not the 90s.
I, I mean, who am I to give advice to?
(17:13):
Mullins. Mullins.
That's a good drag name. Stop coming up with better
names. Oh my God, we have to take a
pause so that I can open this and we can cut.
This out I didn't cut it out of the 4th 1.
I mean, you can leave it in. Delicious.
(17:33):
My second least favorite White Claw flavor, but I'll drink it.
Because it was free. It would be like.
That I'm gaming the system. I had my.
I had a good flavor. 1st I didn't check.
And then I'll have this one. To see what was in there I need
to go buy some more. Probably it's getting low.
Yeah, there's. Well, after tonight there's
(17:54):
probably only going to be two left because I fully anticipate
drinking at least one more. We're supposed to record 2
episodes. She's I'm drinking one more day
I. Drink 4 tonight.
We'll see. I shouldn't but.
Sip and swerve, baby. Sip and swerve.
I won't do that. Almost have a headache tomorrow.
I don't like that the pineapplesaren't good and I hate the
fucking grapefruit ones. I don't like grapefruit
(18:15):
anything. I don't think I'm that much of A
grapefruit fan unless it's mixedwith other berries.
What's the timer for? Timer just to check the chicken.
Are you being notified about thechicken, John?
Probably. Like why is the house?
Beeping. What is going on?
(18:37):
Lordy. Disco Stan.
Disco what? Just see.
Disco Stan. Disco.
Why do you you can't? Just see if ask him to see if
it's bubbling. That is not how cooking works.
I told him to tempt it. Well I mean if it's not bubbling
(18:59):
then I definitely know that it needs to take longer.
If it's bubbling then he can tempt it I guess.
If it ain't even bubbling you don't even need a temp it it
ain't doing what is in that container.
The clear one, my pussy. Wow, that's fucking shrapnel
from the 3D printer isn't it? It's subscribe.
It's the poop. Bucket.
That's the poop bucket, I thought.
(19:20):
For a second it might be TootsieRolls and I was like, why do you
have a? Bucket, let me see the Tootsie
Roll talk about it. Come on, 6th grade.
Oh wait, that was probably 6th grade for me.
I. Yeah.
What year was that? I don't.
Know I can I'll go ahead OK Google this is where I.
(19:42):
What year did the Tootsie Roll song come out?
It's going to be like 1932. So we kind of like, well, it's
our anniversary. Dating the day dating
anniversary date that's. Not real.
You're married, not. Anymore we started dating 12.
Years. That's not real.
(20:03):
Once you get. Married.
All of that history's erased. Bullshit.
The counter resets. Nope.
People only care about when you got married, everything else
doesn't matter. No, we have.
I have put up with this motherfucker's bullshit for 12
years. Listen.
And I've loved most of it. We listen and we don't judge.
(20:25):
I, I I get it. I.
Aaron's a sappy bitch like that.And I'm not.
I am Scorpio hearted. Yeah.
I mean, I was a. Cold hearted snake.
I that's the secret about Scorpios is they're they only
have that really hard exterior, but it's actually quite brittle.
I'm very squishy on the inside, but I don't, I don't know,
Connor tried that shit. He was like happy three months
(20:47):
and I'm like, no, we're not doing that.
I really, I'm not an infant. She's 36 months no.
Bitch, she's 36 months old. Yeah, we can celebrate.
I do hate that shit. We can celebrate.
Thank you. Oh my God.
We've been dating for 144 months.
I hate that. Then I got to do math and I
(21:09):
don't want to do math either. Just tell me the years the.
Year so American. That sounds like I'm applying
for a car loan. Do you want your loan to be Do
you want your loan to be 12 months, 24 months?
I. Saw on TikTok the other day
somebody financed their car for literally like 15 years. 15.
Whatever that is in months it was, it wasn't Gil's auto sales,
(21:30):
but it was kind of like Gil's auto sales you were.
Going to be like 72 months and Iwas going to be like, oh wow,
that's crazy. I totally.
Didn't did the math. It was like in the, you know, I
did the math, but it was like that's 15 years.
That's a mortgage baby car and it wasn't even.
A good car. No, it wasn't like Nissan
Altima. I do think it was.
(21:53):
I do think it was a Toyota but it wasn't like.
There's no Toyota that you need to be spinning. 15 years to
listen and I've only ever drivenToyotas.
They're fantastic cars 15. Years. 15 years.
That car is not going to make itfit well if it's a Corolla.
It'll make Toyota 15 years if you don't wreck it.
Change the oil. Before you're going to be upside
(22:13):
down in that car anyway we're. All cars are upside down because
they're they're scamming. US Mine's paid off, baby.
Scamming us I wonder what? Not for long, I think.
I. Also falling apart well.
But it's paid off. It's paid off.
But it's paid off, yeah. I think I'm a third of the way
through mine about it in 2021 and I think it was six years,
(22:36):
but then one year later I refinanced it for another six
years because my interest rate that the dealership get don't
finance your car through a dealership unrelated to this
podcast, don't do that, but I refinanced it and that was
another six years. So I think I'm I've got that
bitch. Who'd you refinance with?
I no, I mean it doesn't matter. I, I just, it's not a glowing
(22:59):
recommendation. I refinanced through Ally
because that is who I bank with.And the longer that I bank with
Ally, and especially the longer that I bank and also my cars
through Ally, the more frustrating they are as a bank
to me. I do not like how long it takes
them to take the money out of myaccount because they say, all
(23:20):
right, you paid your car payment.
And then two days later they e-mail me your car payment is
late. And I'm like, no, it's not.
You just chose to take the moneyout of my account after somebody
else already took it. Baby, when I say I paid it on
this day, take it on that day. Don't wait three days and think
about it because somebody else like Capital One is going to
swoop in and take that money. If I can Apple transfer $300 to
(23:45):
my bank account the same day youcan take that $300 out of my
bank account to pay for my car, OK?
It's a it's a priority thing. They the lower the.
Priority. I just the less they have to.
Pay Ally is who I bank with and who I do my car with.
They know how much money is in the account.
(24:06):
It's in house, Yeah. It doesn't even have to go
anywhere. Exactly.
It goes from the 5th floor to the 12th floor.
I. Just don't get it.
Yeah. I mean, I have two Capital One
credit cards and a Capital One bank account, so it makes no
sense that they're not. That they can't talk to each
other. That should be instant.
(24:27):
I don't get it. Oh, because some of them, so I
have an Amex credit card personally.
And then the coffee shop has an Amex card and they're under the
same even though they're different, like different owners
because it's one of the, it's not one of those.
So some business credit cards are actually personal, like they
show up on my personal credit. Report.
(24:49):
This Amex card does not. It belongs to the coffee shop.
That's wonderful. They.
Linked it to my personal login so that I have one user account.
But that means they do communicate.
What do you I hate you? They do communicate so if I miss
a payment on one of them they lock both cards.
(25:09):
Fuck me, yeah. But like my, my Capital One, my
personal and the business Capital One, they don't talk to
each other. So like it like if I behave, my
personal card's good. If the coffee shop behaves,
their card's good. And there's no, there's no
connection. There's no fuck.
Up they do have the same login, but they don't talk to each.
Other that's kind of funny. Yeah, it's weird.
It's weird. So funny.
(25:30):
Do you? Want to actually start the
episode? I was just about to ask.
Done a little too much banter, Ifear.
I fear we have strayed the course.
I've been told by two different people because I've joked about
the half an hour we talked aboutbooks and then you said that we
talked about books again. I was like, we should just do
that as a bonus episode. And I said that as a joke and
two different people were like no post it so.
(25:53):
I got to find all the episodes that have the book content then
Yikes. I know right?
Bonus episode, maybe we'll see number. 5 right, we should do an
intro like a hi. Well, and then also we, we were
going to do the New Year's thing, which could be we could
record the intro then. Yeah, we.
Could do the intro then yeah. Whatever, we just need to
(26:14):
remember to do an intro. Hi, welcome back to the Mixed
Flash. Alexa, three weeks from now,
right? Bother me about, I don't know.
Whatever. Remind me.
Yeah, I'll write it down. Yikes.
Yes, taking notes is important. Yeah.
So I guess what we'll do is we'll pretend that we're coming
back from a break and then we'lldo our snatch and wigs struggles
(26:37):
with early drag. That would actually be perfect,
probably. Can we let, will you, can we
record really quick? Do you want to take a break?
And then let's take a break and then say some stupid shit so I
can have that in case I ever need to put it in somewhere.
What do you mean by stupid shit?Because sometimes you'll be
(26:59):
like, I gotta go refill my WhiteClaw or something like.
That fill a white claw? Here's your stupid shit.
What about refilling a White Claw?
They're single use. I think that's what you said in
an episode. I need a new White Claw or
something. I don't remember but.
Do we need a new white? Claws IA closing in an open
Stupid stupid said that to somebody.
(27:21):
The other day and they like paused and like processed what I
said when I said Shooby Dooby. I think it was Sydney and she
we're on the phone. I said should we do and she said
what? Stupid.
You think 10 years later she would be used to this?
No, no, no, we. Surprise each other all the
time. I can only imagine I the the
(27:42):
reality TV show the two of you could have.
It would have to be on like FX or something.
We couldn't be. We are not an ABC program.
Bravo, Yeah, we're BB or like. MTV Online exclusive Something
Trashy. Yeah, oh God.
Patreon only. Not but then I got to convince
(28:03):
people to subscribe, subscribe and save I.
Don't wanna do you wanna take a break myself?
Let's take a break. OK, we'll be right back.
Bye. We're gonna take a break.
I. Gotta pee.
Ow, my knee. That was not my knee, that was
my ankle. I don't know why I said that.
I guess I'm so used to my knee hurting that I just said my knee
hurts. You don't have to do anything.
(28:25):
We're going to go right back. In I was wearing my knee brace
today because it did hurt. Because you're because I'm old.
Old. Yeah, that's how I know the
weather is bad when my knee starts acting up.
Idiot. Yeah.
It's just a pressure change. I always thought it was a joke.
Like in the fourth Harry Potter book, there's that the old guy
that lives on the Riddle property and he like wakes up
(28:46):
during like a rainstorm and he talks about like boiling a
kettle to like put like a like a.
Right at the very beginning, water.
Bottle, Yeah. And I was like, that's so silly.
And you but like Nope it's not. I absolutely have a hot water
bottle and I absolutely have used it on my my ears and my
(29:06):
head during migraines and my knee.
Baby, the heating pad stays under my side of the I need.
To get a heating pad, the hot water bottle doesn't.
It's not a very efficient system.
I need a heating pad. I do Sydney for my birthday this
year got me a a new knee brace that comes with one of those
like gel packs that you can likefreeze or heat in the microwave.
(29:26):
God bless. Yeah.
I need to find that. I want one of those.
Oh, the cooling eye masks. Yeah, they really help with a
headache. I can only imagine, yeah.
I also saw somebody, I don't know if this is medically
advisable but it was on TikTok so probably not.
I saw somebody take a Hitachi wand and like put it under their
eyes to relieve like the sinus pressure.
(29:48):
It can kind of like shake loose.The I mean that makes sense
because you got all you have sinus this year that are filled
with chunk. This is going to be terrible
that I'm going to say this out loud.
My first thought after watching that was I don't have a Hitachi
but do I have anything that doesvibrate in this house because I
have been dealing with some serious sigraine.
Hello, sinus migraines. I'm we listen and we don't
(30:09):
judge. Yeah, we listen and we don't
judge. Do I have any vibrating toys in
this house that I can stick against my face so that I can
what? Was the answer to that question.
I don't. I don't think I do.
I think we only have one that vibrate.
Well, I have one that but it's. Like it doesn't really vibrate
it more like. Oh, it's undulating.
Yeah. Yeah.
(30:32):
Did you like that? Undulating.
I do enjoy a nice undulating. There's your, there's your AP
English exam word undulating. Yeah, it's a good GRE word right
there. What the fuck is a?
GRE graduate entrance exam or something?
Entrance exam when you go get your masters some.
College. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
(30:52):
One of my employees was talking to me about that, about having
to take a little. Yeah.
I had to write a letter. Of recommendation for one of my
employees who wants to go into agrad program because they don't
have they don't have any academic recommendations because
they've been out of their bachelor's program for too long.
So their whoever their admissions person was was like,
you can use professional recommendations.
Wonderful. So I had to write an academic,
(31:14):
not like a paper, but like an academic style letter for the
first time in a while. In a minute.
Since I dropped out of school quite quickly.
Ain't nothing wrong with that. Ain't nothing wrong is this.
Where we're supposed to go and we're back.
And I think we're back. Are you reading my brain?
I. Listen,
(31:47):
I've been watching Sam Starr from social media and from afar,
and I've always been I just really enjoy her like drag.
I enjoy like the costuming, likefrom a, like from a, from a
fellow performer standpoint, like she's got pieces and done
things that I've been like, I love that.
I would love to know like who made that.
I'd love to like do that. And when she got cast, I was
like, that's super cool that we finally have that an Alabama
girl who's claiming she's from Alabama because Trinity's from
(32:10):
Alabama and said she's from Florida.
It's fine, Trinity. I think production told her to
do. That I I get it, but it's.
Because she was in Florida at the time when she was cast or
whatever. But like, it's nice to finally
have. When it pops up it says leads
Alabama. 17 seasons, we finally have somebody from Alabama
because Alabama drag is cool. There's some cool performers and
I not only is this super cool tosee Sam on that international
(32:31):
stage, but she's also excelling in a way that I knew she would.
I would. I thought she'd be like a middle
of the season kind of. But like she is such a strong
champ. Like she's good.
It's great. She surprised me with some of
the things she's done and said on the show, and I'm like, that
I didn't know you could do. That's crazy.
She so funny. I knew from her pageant
experience that she was going togo far because she does hold
(32:54):
she's. A force to be ready.
Two national titles. So I knew with that experience,
and I knew with Trinity the Tuckbeing her now drag mother, yeah.
Yeah, but Trinity also, before Drag Race, had an incredible
like pageant. Yes.
Trinity is She makes great TV, but she is.
Well, and then I'm so challenged.
In terms of like construction styling and that that's what
(33:17):
gets you far as like a working drag performer is the ability to
like turn out looks and outfits by yourself.
I mean, we saw it. On not having a reliety.
Trinity was making all her costumes and she was helping all
the other girls make their costumes and looking great while
doing it. That's a real talent right
there. And to have that on your team
while you're prepping a Drag Race package is I'm.
(33:38):
Yeah. And what's the same as Chantal?
Sparkles. Helped Sam and Jules and that's
every time I see. Some it takes a village.
It does. It takes a village.
And they have some incredible people.
In their I think about drag raceas just like a giant pageant
because I mean, that's really what it is.
It's a giant pageant. You're.
Just bringing a lot more. You're just bringing a lot more
(34:00):
than three categories. And so, I mean, it takes a
village when you're prepping fora pageant.
So hell yeah, they should get help when they do drag race.
Like some of these girl Lexi putout a second mortgage on her
house to just fucking make this work.
Yeah, like, holy shit. Yeah, I mean, Cameron took out a
second mortgage when she went onAll Stars and you talked about
(34:22):
it in Untucked. With Cracker, especially in All
Stars, when you come back they expect you to come back more,
spend so many more 30 grand on looks and stuff.
Like that, I mean, I think Trixie said she spent 30 or 40
grand to do All Stars and because.
Of the plastique spend like 100,000 and that what she said.
Yeah, well, I mean, Gottmake didsay that the rumors about her
All Star season were she's like,those numbers aren't real.
(34:43):
And the numbers for her originalseason, she's like, that's also
not real. She's like, I spent money but
not that much. But Trixie said she spent 3040
thousand and then after and she won.
That was when it was only 100,000.
She's like, it's taxed as a likea gambling lottery winnings in
California, the state where she lives, She's like so 40% of it
(35:04):
was taxed. She's like, so I broke even,
broke even doing drag race. She's like, but it gave me
Exposed, an elevator platform that allowed me to sell a show
to Discovery. And that's how her TV show and
if these girls were smart, like Corey King is smart.
You start doing the cameos, start doing the the YouTube
(35:24):
appearances, the podcast, start making a name for yourself on
social media. Because Corey's playing the
long. Game and staying relevant
because we've been hearing a lotof the older Rue girls and even
some not like you know Selena isnot that she's from a recent
issues and and she's been complaining about.
The bookings are getting. Harder.
Well, that's a whole separate discussion.
(35:46):
Well, but she's not wrong. The political climate is
changing. And I mean, you have a lot of
corporate sponsors are pulling out of pride events and
sometimes those pride organizations can only get the
Rue girls. Well, I will say some of y'all's
booking fees don't match what you're bringing to the table.
And listen, I've never been asked my booking fees, So what
(36:08):
do I know? But I I'm still out here
performing for a couple free drinks, you know, and as a show
director in the venue being my coffee shop, there's been some
shows I've done at a loss. Let's just say that there are
some Root entertainers that I'vepaid $1500 for and there's some
Root Entertainers that I've paid$6500 for.
(36:31):
And the $1500 entertainer was a lot more entertaining than the
$6500 one and was a lot more personable than the $6500 one.
So I'll just leave it at that. But.
It's fine, Charge what you thinkyou're worth.
That goes back to an obvious discussion with those
photographers. And obviously people are going
to pay my. Rates because I've if this bitch
(36:52):
is charging $55 for. 15 minutes,15 minutes and a drape session.
It's not even an outfit. It's not even a you're not even
putting on clothes, no costume. You are draping something on top
of that child. I I tell people I was like, I
don't charge for changing a venue, I don't charge for
costume changes. I just start a clock.
You want to book an hour? What do you think you can do an
(37:13):
hour? Can you go quick change in the
bathroom? You better hustle.
Read them. Hustle, baby.
Hustle. Yeah.

(01:20):
See, and this is what happens when I take gummies when I get
home from work. I did not take any gummies
today, but I did have too much coffee at work and then the
caffeine. I had a weird headache because
the pollen and also it feels thepressure's changing.
But it's not raining because it's not supposed to rain until
Saturday or Sunday. But I can feel, I can feel a
(01:41):
storm of Bruin. My brain is five day Doppler
radar. It's I'm so mad.
It used to like I'd get a headache the day it would rain
and now literally it's like a 5 day forecast.
Like if it rains next week, I have a headache this week.
But I fucking, I was at home doing my little household chores
or whatever and I, you know, took a quick shower 'cause I
(02:02):
needed to wash my hair and I getout of the shower and I like I
was like, why the fuck does my head hurt so bad?
So I took some, I took Excedrin and ibuprofen and just the one
of each just a little bit. I took Excedrin and ibuprofen
and I also took a Sudafed. And then I laid down for 45
(02:22):
minutes, woke up still had a little bit of a headache and I
had like my like my whole left nostril was just not with it.
So I did some fucking. I don't do a lot of it, but the
Afrin I keep my. Emergency bottle.
Yeah, so I did. I did a hit of Afrin in each
nostril. Hit of Afrin Yeah, make it sound
like a street narcotic. It should be.
(02:44):
It is bad but I can breathe bothnostrils.
Love it. That's rare for me.
Usually I've only got 1A. Deviated.
Set I do have a 90% blockage in my right nostril because that's
what the fans want to hear. Until I was 1920, I had a yeah,
sinus surgery. He broke that shit and put it
back that I was like, you could have made it a little smaller.
(03:06):
Well, they've got that's The thing is you can either do
rhinoplasty, which is like a nose job where you can do
septoplasty, which is where theyjust go up on the inside and
they don't do anything cosmetic on the outside.
Septoplasty is probably a littlebit cheaper because you're not
doing reconstruction or anything, you're just kind of
clearing out like scar tissue orwhatever.
But the problem is I'm an insurance so now I can't get.
Preach. Yeah, can't get septoplasty.
(03:28):
That was on my, that was on my To Do List this year before I
found out my insurance was goingto be $400.00 a month and I
cancelled it. Yeah, I was going to get
septoplasty and I was going to bother all my doc, my General
practitioner, to try and find a specialist to get diagnosed with
whatever autoimmune disorder I have and don't know about.
That's expensive, yeah. Well and now I can't afford to
do any of it. My dentist is calling me telling
(03:50):
me that my cleaning that I get in January, they're like, hey
baby girl, your insurance rejected it.
And I was like, I'll I'll get you your money when I can.
Just put that bill in the mail for me.
They. Will they the call was a
courtesy. Don't they'll mail me.
It's OK, she they know I told them I was like the insurance is
(04:11):
going to reject this and they'relike, well, it's showing his
active still so we can try and Iwas like work.
Have fun. Yeah, it's not going to go
through. It's not they thought.
They thought maybe. Power to you if it does.
Yeah, no. So I got to.
I got. Next paycheck, I got to go up to
my dentist's office. And here we are talking about
teeth. Wow, 11 episodes in.
(04:32):
Talk about what you know, right?I don't know.
Do what you. Know I hear that listeners like
consistency so you know. I am consistent there is that.
I love that. But I just had to ask because I
(04:54):
was nosy. I would love I I mean I want I I
don't have enough fingers because I just love language.
I think so. I used to want to be a writer.
So like, well, I mean, I guess Istill sort of I mean I write
occasionally. I know it's never too late to
self publish on Kindle. I.
You can do it. The American publishing industry
is trash, so I'd never be. I'd never have an agent.
I never have a publishing house.They'd never support me touch
(05:17):
and dials. Anything about that?
It's a nightmare. That's why I would self publish.
I have no choice. You can.
You can back me on Patreon. One of my favorite authors.
Yeah, I released the 1st 2 chapters and if you want to read
the rest of the book, yeah, subscribe to my Patreon.
Yeah, something like that. I mean, I have one of my
favorite authors I follow on Patreon and that's what he does
is he does illustrations that hework, he works with like
(05:39):
illustrators just to do illustrations of his characters
and he'll do, he asked Poles forthings or whatever.
He was doing a web comic for a while.
And then so if you support him on Patreon, you actually I read
one of his books like 2 months before it was put on Amazon
Kindle because he was like, I'm just going to give the file to
all of my. Back, Yeah, that's how I just
finished. I bought.
(06:00):
I didn't buy, but you know, if you have Audible subscription,
you get like a credit a month orwhatever.
I used my credit to buy an audiobook and it was a cute little
book, whatever. And there was a second one that
came right after it and I was like, Oh my God, I want to read
the second one. The second one was just on his
website for free. Like just go download to your
iPad. There you go.
I love that. It was fantastic.
(06:21):
I haven't gotten through it yet,but.
I just started that author. I'm I just started the 4th book
in the in the series he's on now.
I'm super excited. Not as old being readers.
I. Love reading.
I used to not love reading. OK, so did you have to take the
AR test, the accelerated reader test?
Alabama reading and math test. No, this was like just something
(06:43):
separate. No, I did.
Do you know what double S? Are oh, I know what double S are
because I well, I didn't give double S testing, but I was like
interning. Interning while they were.
That was something when I lived in South Carolina that we
didn't. Do that and then.
When I moved to Auburn, they were they're like we.
Got up three times a year. Went to the hallway and make you
(07:04):
read a little passage. I'm not a fast oral reader, but
I can fly. If you just leave me alone, I
can read a book so fast, so fast.
I finished Billy Porter's memoirin like 2 or 3 days.
I'm such a fast reader and I, I mean, I would like to think I've
good comprehensive skills. I did in second grade.
(07:24):
I was given this is the only trophy I've ever won.
I still have it. It's plastic, but I got I was
given a trophy in second grade for being an accelerated reader
gift. A child syndrome.
See the only reason I ever got so you had to get so many
accelerated reader points like every year.
You were pizza party, Yes. No, I never got to do the.
Pizza. And so I would always use the
Harry Potter books for my Accelerated reader test because
(07:48):
those were like 5075 points eachfor a book, especially when you
got into like the books 345 and 6.
Those the last three books are huge that.
Tells you how old I am. The 4th and the I think the 4th
or the 5th book is the biggest book.
The 4th book is massive especially.
The 4th, The Goblet of Fire might be the biggest.
There's just so much that happens.
It's so funny too, because like half of the book does not exist
(08:10):
in the movie. Like they they immediately like
the first day of the first day of school.
It's like, oh, the tournament bitch, where the first third of
the book is the regular school year.
Yeah, they're like, welcome backto Hogwarts. 2 months from now
we're going to do this really big thing, but tomorrow you got
class. Yeah, they skipped.
They skipped. All that shit and went straight
to the tournament. No I I wish I would have done a
(08:33):
pizza parties or whatever. No, I just read a lot because I
didn't have any friends. You either got a pizza party or
you got like a free ice cream from the lunch room or something
like that. No, I wish.
No, I did. I didn't need.
I did not need any help being asked to read all of all my
siblings. I'm one of.
I did younger I think it was theADDI couldn't.
Focus that that doesn't help. Yeah, no, I loved reading.
(08:56):
I immediately took to it. I used to in kindergarten.
I would literally in one sittingread the Junie B Jones books and
the Magic Treehouse books. And then my mom would be like, I
guess we got to go back to Target.
But it's expensive habit. I don't like to buy books
because I read them so quickly. I read the Hardy Boys books,
like just about all of them. I read all the Goosebumps books.
I still have all. The I read some of the
(09:17):
goosebumps. I still, I do.
I know. I think I give them to my
siblings. I don't.
I still have them. No, I did.
And then in fifth grade is when I sat down and started reading
Harry Potter and I, it became a vicious cycle.
I would read at the beginning and the end of every school
year. And I did that from 5th grade
until 10th grade. And I checked them out of the
library in 10th grade. And I like, I read the last book
(09:39):
and I was like, this has to stop.
It's not enjoyable. I like I'm just doing this
because I don't want to pick another.
Book, I think I remember when the 6th book, the 5th or 6th
book came out, I don't remember.We were leaving to go on a trip
somewhere and I was like, beforewe leave we're stopping by
(10:00):
Walmart so I can get that fucking book so I have something
to read in the car on the way. I don't remember where we were
going. But I remember the 7th book
because I remember my dad buyingit like when it became available
and he read it first all I had to wait for him to finish it and
he literally like the moment he finished it he literally like
closed it and like walked acrossthe living room.
(10:21):
He handed it to me and it was like, OK, Snatch, this is, you
know. The big moment.
I wish I could find a book series like that again.
You know that I was excited to pick up have.
You read Percy Jackson? No, you, I think if you liked
Harry Potter and you like Percy Jackson.
OK, so it's like myth. It's the Greek mythology.
I like mythology, but also all of the the the characters Rick
(10:47):
Riordan does a fantastic job of making them super relatable.
So like most of the kids have like ADDADHD learning
disabilities kind of situation because they.
Come on, no. Divergent, the excuses that
because they're all demigods, children, they're hardwired for
like battle. They're not meant to be sitting
in a classroom kind of situation.
(11:07):
But as the books go on, Rick Riordan did a really good job of
being like I, you know, he wrotethe first person like 2005.
So, you know, representation wasviewed differently then.
But as the books went on, he waslike, I want more, I want more
characters that are like diversefrom different ethnic
backgrounds or like, I mean, he's one, I'd say he's one of
(11:29):
the biggest mainstream authors. That's like, I'm going to start
putting queer people like real, not like like token like not
check box, like the characters are not queer so that he can say
they're queer. It just, they just are.
I love that all of the characters in all of the because
there's like 3 Series now. It's the original and there's
(11:50):
two like series that are in the same universe.
They all feel like fleshed out humans that are multifaceted,
that are capable of making mistakes, that are capable of
having like real emotions. It's it's.
I've never read something like it.
Interest. Yeah, I've been on a memoir kick
lately. I don't know why I.
Want to I want to do more stuff like.
(12:11):
That because there's RuPaul out there.
OK. It's the RuPaul memoir.
I hate it. You hate it.
Fuck. God, it was good.
OK, It was good. Well, he's lived so many lives.
And I think what made it better was listening to him read it.
Yeah, because there's an audio book of RuPaul reading it and
he's great like that. He's a great storyteller anyway,
So yeah, him reading his memoir,it was like some of it was a
(12:33):

I did not put that one on that one.
You put that on that one. I didn't put this on here, Yeah.
You did. It wasn't me.
I don't know what they do. Literally it's just squishy.
(14:33):
You know what they do? To me, it means I always have
the purple microphone because I like purple.
When we're doing the live shows,I always give myself the purple.
You do. Well, I like it.
It's purple. I like the black one, it
matches. Myself.
Well also the black one is the one that I think is no, the
purple one is the fine one, the black one's the fucked up 1.

biscuit is a cut that out. No, she leaned over the in the
(14:58):
car the other day. Just Seth and goes baby, you can
call me. And call me Anita.
I just love the other. Was it I think it was brunch or
something. She literally it was either
brunch or it was the Friday showwe did before brunch, the sip
and serve show and we were talking before the show and she
was like, I really don't care that you call me Anita.
Just call me Biscuit on the microphone.
And then I literally called her Anita on the microphone.
(15:24):
I also got in trouble at Sugar Rush this weekend because I I
called Deja off stage. I called her Diamond because it
was a Beyoncé song and Diamond had already done a Beyoncé song.
So I guess my brain you. Should have played you could
have easily played that off as ajoke girlie.
I I did not because because the entire cast swiveled and looked
(15:47):
at me and I was like, I'm sorry.Also I'd like it to be known I
was hosting DJ ING and also I had my ring light and my phone
and I was trying to capture video of everyone's performances
so I'm wearing like 8 hats and awig and wearing pumps.
I'm sorry I forgot the the wrongor the right name or whatever.
(16:10):
I swear also. This next bitch.
Yeah, honestly, y'all get up forwhoever just went on.
That's what I'm going to start doing.
There's when we do the fresh faces.
I walk up to every performer. I got a clue.
New Drag Day. Stupid.
(16:31):
I walk up to every. I walk up to every performer
when we do fresh faces and I'm like, what is your name?
How do you pronounce it? That part.
And then I and then I tell them.I may still do it wrong but I'm
trying to be a good. Person, if it's something, if
it's something I really can't remember, I'll just do a voice
memo. Can you say that into my phone?
(16:51):
I'm I try to be considerate but some of y'all choose some names
that my brain just doesn't want to remember or say.
And then some. Some people choose names like
Razor. What?
That's kind of hot, Razor. This is not the 90s.
I, I mean, who am I to give advice to?
(17:13):
Mullins. Mullins.
That's a good drag name. Stop coming up with better
names. Oh my God, we have to take a
pause so that I can open this and we can cut.
This out I didn't cut it out of the 4th 1.
I mean, you can leave it in. Delicious.
(17:33):
My second least favorite White Claw flavor, but I'll drink it.
Because it was free. It would be like.
That I'm gaming the system. I had my.
I had a good flavor. 1st I didn't check.
And then I'll have this one. To see what was in there I need
to go buy some more. Probably it's getting low.
Yeah, there's. Well, after tonight there's
(17:54):
probably only going to be two left because I fully anticipate
drinking at least one more. We're supposed to record 2
episodes. She's I'm drinking one more day
I. Drink 4 tonight.
We'll see. I shouldn't but.
Sip and swerve, baby. Sip and swerve.
I won't do that. Almost have a headache tomorrow.
I don't like that the pineapplesaren't good and I hate the
fucking grapefruit ones. I don't like grapefruit
(18:15):
anything. I don't think I'm that much of A
grapefruit fan unless it's mixedwith other berries.
What's the timer for? Timer just to check the chicken.
Are you being notified about thechicken, John?
Probably. Like why is the house?
Beeping. What is going on?
(18:37):
Lordy. Disco Stan.
Disco what? Just see.
Disco Stan. Disco.
Why do you you can't? Just see if ask him to see if
it's bubbling. That is not how cooking works.
I told him to tempt it. Well I mean if it's not bubbling
(18:59):
then I definitely know that it needs to take longer.
If it's bubbling then he can tempt it I guess.
If it ain't even bubbling you don't even need a temp it it
ain't doing what is in that container.
The clear one, my pussy. Wow, that's fucking shrapnel
from the 3D printer isn't it? It's subscribe.
It's the poop. Bucket.
That's the poop bucket, I thought.
(19:20):
For a second it might be TootsieRolls and I was like, why do you
have a? Bucket, let me see the Tootsie
Roll talk about it. Come on, 6th grade.
Oh wait, that was probably 6th grade for me.
I. Yeah.
What year was that? I don't.
Know I can I'll go ahead OK Google this is where I.
(19:42):
What year did the Tootsie Roll song come out?
It's going to be like 1932. So we kind of like, well, it's
our anniversary. Dating the day dating
anniversary date that's. Not real.
You're married, not. Anymore we started dating 12.
Years. That's not real.
(20:03):
Once you get. Married.
All of that history's erased. Bullshit.
The counter resets. Nope.
People only care about when you got married, everything else
doesn't matter. No, we have.
I have put up with this motherfucker's bullshit for 12
years. Listen.
And I've loved most of it. We listen and we don't judge.
(20:25):
I, I I get it. I.
Aaron's a sappy bitch like that.And I'm not.
I am Scorpio hearted. Yeah.
I mean, I was a. Cold hearted snake.
I that's the secret about Scorpios is they're they only
have that really hard exterior, but it's actually quite brittle.
I'm very squishy on the inside, but I don't, I don't know,
Connor tried that shit. He was like happy three months
(20:47):
and I'm like, no, we're not doing that.
I really, I'm not an infant. She's 36 months no.
Bitch, she's 36 months old. Yeah, we can celebrate.
I do hate that shit. We can celebrate.
Thank you. Oh my God.
We've been dating for 144 months.
I hate that. Then I got to do math and I
(21:09):
don't want to do math either. Just tell me the years the.
Year so American. That sounds like I'm applying
for a car loan. Do you want your loan to be Do
you want your loan to be 12 months, 24 months?
I. Saw on TikTok the other day
somebody financed their car for literally like 15 years. 15.
Whatever that is in months it was, it wasn't Gil's auto sales,
(21:30):
but it was kind of like Gil's auto sales you were.
Going to be like 72 months and Iwas going to be like, oh wow,
that's crazy. I totally.
Didn't did the math. It was like in the, you know, I
did the math, but it was like that's 15 years.
That's a mortgage baby car and it wasn't even.
A good car. No, it wasn't like Nissan
Altima. I do think it was.
(21:53):
I do think it was a Toyota but it wasn't like.
There's no Toyota that you need to be spinning. 15 years to
listen and I've only ever drivenToyotas.
They're fantastic cars 15. Years. 15 years.
That car is not going to make itfit well if it's a Corolla.
It'll make Toyota 15 years if you don't wreck it.
Change the oil. Before you're going to be upside
(22:13):
down in that car anyway we're. All cars are upside down because
they're they're scamming. US Mine's paid off, baby.
Scamming us I wonder what? Not for long, I think.
I. Also falling apart well.
But it's paid off. It's paid off.
But it's paid off, yeah. I think I'm a third of the way
through mine about it in 2021 and I think it was six years,
(22:36):
but then one year later I refinanced it for another six
years because my interest rate that the dealership get don't
finance your car through a dealership unrelated to this
podcast, don't do that, but I refinanced it and that was
another six years. So I think I'm I've got that
bitch. Who'd you refinance with?
I no, I mean it doesn't matter. I, I just, it's not a glowing
(22:59):
recommendation. I refinanced through Ally
because that is who I bank with.And the longer that I bank with
Ally, and especially the longer that I bank and also my cars
through Ally, the more frustrating they are as a bank
to me. I do not like how long it takes
them to take the money out of myaccount because they say, all
(23:20):
right, you paid your car payment.
And then two days later they e-mail me your car payment is
late. And I'm like, no, it's not.
You just chose to take the moneyout of my account after somebody
else already took it. Baby, when I say I paid it on
this day, take it on that day. Don't wait three days and think
about it because somebody else like Capital One is going to
swoop in and take that money. If I can Apple transfer $300 to
(23:45):
my bank account the same day youcan take that $300 out of my
bank account to pay for my car, OK?
It's a it's a priority thing. They the lower the.
Priority. I just the less they have to.
Pay Ally is who I bank with and who I do my car with.
They know how much money is in the account.
(24:06):
It's in house, Yeah. It doesn't even have to go
anywhere. Exactly.
It goes from the 5th floor to the 12th floor.
I. Just don't get it.
Yeah. I mean, I have two Capital One
credit cards and a Capital One bank account, so it makes no
sense that they're not. That they can't talk to each
other. That should be instant.
(24:27):
I don't get it. Oh, because some of them, so I
have an Amex credit card personally.
And then the coffee shop has an Amex card and they're under the
same even though they're different, like different owners
because it's one of the, it's not one of those.
So some business credit cards are actually personal, like they
show up on my personal credit. Report.
(24:49):
This Amex card does not. It belongs to the coffee shop.
That's wonderful. They.
Linked it to my personal login so that I have one user account.
But that means they do communicate.
What do you I hate you? They do communicate so if I miss
a payment on one of them they lock both cards.
(25:09):
Fuck me, yeah. But like my, my Capital One, my
personal and the business Capital One, they don't talk to
each other. So like it like if I behave, my
personal card's good. If the coffee shop behaves,
their card's good. And there's no, there's no
connection. There's no fuck.
Up they do have the same login, but they don't talk to each.
Other that's kind of funny. Yeah, it's weird.
It's weird. So funny.
(25:30):
Do you? Want to actually start the
episode? I was just about to ask.
Done a little too much banter, Ifear.
I fear we have strayed the course.
I've been told by two different people because I've joked about
the half an hour we talked aboutbooks and then you said that we
talked about books again. I was like, we should just do
that as a bonus episode. And I said that as a joke and
two different people were like no post it so.
(25:53):
I got to find all the episodes that have the book content then
Yikes. I know right?
Bonus episode, maybe we'll see number. 5 right, we should do an
intro like a hi. Well, and then also we, we were
going to do the New Year's thing, which could be we could
record the intro then. Yeah, we.
Could do the intro then yeah. Whatever, we just need to
(26:14):
remember to do an intro. Hi, welcome back to the Mixed
Flash. Alexa, three weeks from now,
right? Bother me about, I don't know.
Whatever. Remind me.
Yeah, I'll write it down. Yikes.
Yes, taking notes is important. Yeah.
So I guess what we'll do is we'll pretend that we're coming
back from a break and then we'lldo our snatch and wigs struggles
(26:37):
with early drag. That would actually be perfect,
probably. Can we let, will you, can we
record really quick? Do you want to take a break?
And then let's take a break and then say some stupid shit so I
can have that in case I ever need to put it in somewhere.
What do you mean by stupid shit?Because sometimes you'll be
(26:59):
like, I gotta go refill my WhiteClaw or something like.
That fill a white claw? Here's your stupid shit.
What about refilling a White Claw?
They're single use. I think that's what you said in
an episode. I need a new White Claw or
something. I don't remember but.
Do we need a new white? Claws IA closing in an open
Stupid stupid said that to somebody.
(27:21):
The other day and they like paused and like processed what I
said when I said Shooby Dooby. I think it was Sydney and she
we're on the phone. I said should we do and she said
what? Stupid.
You think 10 years later she would be used to this?
No, no, no, we. Surprise each other all the
time. I can only imagine I the the
(27:42):
reality TV show the two of you could have.
It would have to be on like FX or something.
We couldn't be. We are not an ABC program.
Bravo, Yeah, we're BB or like. MTV Online exclusive Something
Trashy. Yeah, oh God.
Patreon only. Not but then I got to convince
(28:03):
people to subscribe, subscribe and save I.
Don't wanna do you wanna take a break myself?
Let's take a break. OK, we'll be right back.
Bye. We're gonna take a break.
I. Gotta pee.
Ow, my knee. That was not my knee, that was
my ankle. I don't know why I said that.
I guess I'm so used to my knee hurting that I just said my knee
hurts. You don't have to do anything.
(28:25):
We're going to go right back. In I was wearing my knee brace
today because it did hurt. Because you're because I'm old.
Old. Yeah, that's how I know the
weather is bad when my knee starts acting up.
Idiot. Yeah.
It's just a pressure change. I always thought it was a joke.
Like in the fourth Harry Potter book, there's that the old guy
that lives on the Riddle property and he like wakes up
(28:46):
during like a rainstorm and he talks about like boiling a
kettle to like put like a like a.
Right at the very beginning, water.
Bottle, Yeah. And I was like, that's so silly.
And you but like Nope it's not. I absolutely have a hot water
bottle and I absolutely have used it on my my ears and my
(29:06):
head during migraines and my knee.
Baby, the heating pad stays under my side of the I need.
To get a heating pad, the hot water bottle doesn't.
It's not a very efficient system.
I need a heating pad. I do Sydney for my birthday this
year got me a a new knee brace that comes with one of those
like gel packs that you can likefreeze or heat in the microwave.
(29:26):
God bless. Yeah.
I need to find that. I want one of those.
Oh, the cooling eye masks. Yeah, they really help with a
headache. I can only imagine, yeah.
I also saw somebody, I don't know if this is medically
advisable but it was on TikTok so probably not.
I saw somebody take a Hitachi wand and like put it under their
eyes to relieve like the sinus pressure.
(29:48):
It can kind of like shake loose.The I mean that makes sense
because you got all you have sinus this year that are filled
with chunk. This is going to be terrible
that I'm going to say this out loud.
My first thought after watching that was I don't have a Hitachi
but do I have anything that doesvibrate in this house because I
have been dealing with some serious sigraine.
Hello, sinus migraines. I'm we listen and we don't
(30:09):
judge. Yeah, we listen and we don't
judge. Do I have any vibrating toys in
this house that I can stick against my face so that I can
what? Was the answer to that question.
I don't. I don't think I do.
I think we only have one that vibrate.
Well, I have one that but it's. Like it doesn't really vibrate
it more like. Oh, it's undulating.
Yeah. Yeah.
(30:32):
Did you like that? Undulating.
I do enjoy a nice undulating. There's your, there's your AP
English exam word undulating. Yeah, it's a good GRE word right
there. What the fuck is a?
GRE graduate entrance exam or something?
Entrance exam when you go get your masters some.
College. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
(30:52):
One of my employees was talking to me about that, about having
to take a little. Yeah.
I had to write a letter. Of recommendation for one of my
employees who wants to go into agrad program because they don't
have they don't have any academic recommendations because
they've been out of their bachelor's program for too long.
So their whoever their admissions person was was like,
you can use professional recommendations.
Wonderful. So I had to write an academic,
(31:14):
not like a paper, but like an academic style letter for the
first time in a while. In a minute.
Since I dropped out of school quite quickly.
Ain't nothing wrong with that. Ain't nothing wrong is this.
Where we're supposed to go and we're back.
And I think we're back. Are you reading my brain?
I. Listen,
(31:47):
I've been watching Sam Starr from social media and from afar,
and I've always been I just really enjoy her like drag.
I enjoy like the costuming, likefrom a, like from a, from a
fellow performer standpoint, like she's got pieces and done
things that I've been like, I love that.
I would love to know like who made that.
I'd love to like do that. And when she got cast, I was
like, that's super cool that we finally have that an Alabama
girl who's claiming she's from Alabama because Trinity's from
(32:10):
Alabama and said she's from Florida.
It's fine, Trinity. I think production told her to
do. That I I get it, but it's.
Because she was in Florida at the time when she was cast or
whatever. But like, it's nice to finally
have. When it pops up it says leads
Alabama. 17 seasons, we finally have somebody from Alabama
because Alabama drag is cool. There's some cool performers and
I not only is this super cool tosee Sam on that international
(32:31):
stage, but she's also excelling in a way that I knew she would.
I would. I thought she'd be like a middle
of the season kind of. But like she is such a strong
champ. Like she's good.
It's great. She surprised me with some of
the things she's done and said on the show, and I'm like, that
I didn't know you could do. That's crazy.
She so funny. I knew from her pageant
experience that she was going togo far because she does hold
(32:54):
she's. A force to be ready.
Two national titles. So I knew with that experience,
and I knew with Trinity the Tuckbeing her now drag mother, yeah.
Yeah, but Trinity also, before Drag Race, had an incredible
like pageant. Yes.
Trinity is She makes great TV, but she is.
Well, and then I'm so challenged.
In terms of like construction styling and that that's what
(33:17):
gets you far as like a working drag performer is the ability to
like turn out looks and outfits by yourself.
I mean, we saw it. On not having a reliety.
Trinity was making all her costumes and she was helping all
the other girls make their costumes and looking great while
doing it. That's a real talent right
there. And to have that on your team
while you're prepping a Drag Race package is I'm.
(33:38):
Yeah. And what's the same as Chantal?
Sparkles. Helped Sam and Jules and that's
every time I see. Some it takes a village.
It does. It takes a village.
And they have some incredible people.
In their I think about drag raceas just like a giant pageant
because I mean, that's really what it is.
It's a giant pageant. You're.
Just bringing a lot more. You're just bringing a lot more
(34:00):
than three categories. And so, I mean, it takes a
village when you're prepping fora pageant.
So hell yeah, they should get help when they do drag race.
Like some of these girl Lexi putout a second mortgage on her
house to just fucking make this work.
Yeah, like, holy shit. Yeah, I mean, Cameron took out a
second mortgage when she went onAll Stars and you talked about
(34:22):
it in Untucked. With Cracker, especially in All
Stars, when you come back they expect you to come back more,
spend so many more 30 grand on looks and stuff.
Like that, I mean, I think Trixie said she spent 30 or 40
grand to do All Stars and because.
Of the plastique spend like 100,000 and that what she said.
Yeah, well, I mean, Gottmake didsay that the rumors about her
All Star season were she's like,those numbers aren't real.
(34:43):
And the numbers for her originalseason, she's like, that's also
not real. She's like, I spent money but
not that much. But Trixie said she spent 3040
thousand and then after and she won.
That was when it was only 100,000.
She's like, it's taxed as a likea gambling lottery winnings in
California, the state where she lives, She's like so 40% of it
(35:04):
was taxed. She's like, so I broke even,
broke even doing drag race. She's like, but it gave me
Exposed, an elevator platform that allowed me to sell a show
to Discovery. And that's how her TV show and
if these girls were smart, like Corey King is smart.
You start doing the cameos, start doing the the YouTube
(35:24):
appearances, the podcast, start making a name for yourself on
social media. Because Corey's playing the
long. Game and staying relevant
because we've been hearing a lotof the older Rue girls and even
some not like you know Selena isnot that she's from a recent
issues and and she's been complaining about.
The bookings are getting. Harder.
Well, that's a whole separate discussion.
(35:46):
Well, but she's not wrong. The political climate is
changing. And I mean, you have a lot of
corporate sponsors are pulling out of pride events and
sometimes those pride organizations can only get the
Rue girls. Well, I will say some of y'all's
booking fees don't match what you're bringing to the table.
And listen, I've never been asked my booking fees, So what
(36:08):
do I know? But I I'm still out here
performing for a couple free drinks, you know, and as a show
director in the venue being my coffee shop, there's been some
shows I've done at a loss. Let's just say that there are
some Root entertainers that I'vepaid $1500 for and there's some
Root Entertainers that I've paid$6500 for.
(36:31):
And the $1500 entertainer was a lot more entertaining than the
$6500 one and was a lot more personable than the $6500 one.
So I'll just leave it at that. But.
It's fine, Charge what you thinkyou're worth.
That goes back to an obvious discussion with those
photographers. And obviously people are going
to pay my. Rates because I've if this bitch
(36:52):
is charging $55 for. 15 minutes,15 minutes and a drape session.
It's not even an outfit. It's not even a you're not even
putting on clothes, no costume. You are draping something on top
of that child. I I tell people I was like, I
don't charge for changing a venue, I don't charge for
costume changes. I just start a clock.
You want to book an hour? What do you think you can do an
(37:13):
hour? Can you go quick change in the
bathroom? You better hustle.
Read them. Hustle, baby.
Hustle. Yeah.
