WEBVTT - Gape Expectations 0:00:03.080 --> 0:00:05.480 I had this nightmare that I was cast onto drag 0:00:05.519 --> 0:00:07.560 Grace and I was competing in the profits. There was 0:00:07.560 --> 0:00:10.200 a moment during the show where the cameras were down 0:00:10.200 --> 0:00:12.600 and I needed to go use the bathroom. And when 0:00:12.600 --> 0:00:15.240 I was taking a ship, they were like calling like places, places, 0:00:15.280 --> 0:00:17.040 and I was like, fuck, I need to like go, 0:00:17.440 --> 0:00:19.520 And then all of a sudden, the walls of the 0:00:19.520 --> 0:00:22.520 bathroom dropped and I was sitting on the toy that 0:00:22.600 --> 0:00:24.600 in front of the entire cast of this Drag Race 0:00:24.600 --> 0:00:27.560 season and Row laughing at me, and the whole thing 0:00:27.600 --> 0:00:33.600 had been staged. I'm not proud of this, but I've 0:00:33.640 --> 0:00:36.199 never been on the Dakota Johnson train. You know what, 0:00:36.400 --> 0:00:39.880 fran I will not accept any Dakota Johnson slander, because 0:00:39.920 --> 0:00:44.400 today we are lifting Dakota up and celebration and thanking 0:00:44.440 --> 0:00:49.640 her for the amazing, incredible show stopping never the same bus, club, 0:00:49.640 --> 0:00:53.800 another club, another club, bus, no sleep, next plane, no sleep. 0:00:54.120 --> 0:00:57.040 Gift that she gave the world, which is fifty shades 0:00:57.040 --> 0:00:59.720 of gray, yes, and then after that, of course, becoming 0:00:59.720 --> 0:01:02.280 the crew the director of a very bougie lube company 0:01:02.320 --> 0:01:05.200 that I will say I was a fan of before 0:01:05.240 --> 0:01:08.320 she hopped Onto, but it is a great loop Virgins. 0:01:08.360 --> 0:01:11.679 Today we are talking about fifty shades of great, not 0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:14.160 just the movies, not just the books, but the fifty 0:01:14.200 --> 0:01:17.840 shades of great phenomenon, which is you know that these 0:01:17.880 --> 0:01:21.440 are the best selling books of the twenty tents. Um. 0:01:21.480 --> 0:01:24.559 This was a moment in pop culture, took pop culture 0:01:24.600 --> 0:01:28.360 by storm, and we will be revisiting it because this 0:01:28.440 --> 0:01:30.960 is like a Virgin the show where we give yesterday's 0:01:30.959 --> 0:01:34.800 pop culture today's takes. I'm ros Damo and I'm Fran Toroto. Fran, 0:01:34.920 --> 0:01:37.920 are you ready to be tied up and dominated? Um, 0:01:38.200 --> 0:01:44.880 you're asking for my consent? Um? No, okay, And I 0:01:44.920 --> 0:01:52.320 guess podcast over and just like that season one, and 0:01:53.000 --> 0:01:55.440 I mean what I'm hoping is the only season of 0:01:55.520 --> 0:01:58.680 and just like that, but probably won't be has ended. 0:01:58.840 --> 0:02:00.520 What did you think? What did you think of the finale? 0:02:01.880 --> 0:02:04.360 I mean you hated it obviously, but what's your nuanced 0:02:04.400 --> 0:02:09.440 and can you provide analysis of why you hated it? Yeah? 0:02:09.600 --> 0:02:12.120 There were parts of it that I liked, Okay, I 0:02:12.280 --> 0:02:16.920 loved Carrie's dress in Paris incredible, although he did she 0:02:16.919 --> 0:02:20.320 should have been wearing the carry necklace. Um. I loved Harry. 0:02:20.600 --> 0:02:23.960 Harry was amazing. Let's let's start with Harri okay, because 0:02:24.080 --> 0:02:29.960 Harry sucked up every scene. Harry like now joins the 0:02:30.080 --> 0:02:34.760 legacy of iconic Sex in the City guest stars. That's 0:02:34.760 --> 0:02:38.560 so true. She really brought that zaney nous back into 0:02:38.560 --> 0:02:40.480 Sex in the City. I think that's something that's really 0:02:41.240 --> 0:02:44.320 were we were missing from this reboot. And just like 0:02:44.360 --> 0:02:47.920 that universe is so much And here's the thing. The 0:02:47.960 --> 0:02:51.320 buzz around Harry is a lot. And they originally had 0:02:51.360 --> 0:02:55.320 her reading for the book publisher role, and then they 0:02:55.360 --> 0:02:58.120 had her comeback in and they wrote this role for Harry, 0:02:58.160 --> 0:03:00.560 which is thank how much they liked her. She need 0:03:00.639 --> 0:03:04.400 she needed room to breathe. I'm glad we got so 0:03:04.480 --> 0:03:08.000 much Rabbi Jen and she was so integrated into the 0:03:08.040 --> 0:03:11.800 storyline and to all the girls storylines. Yes, she was 0:03:11.840 --> 0:03:15.760 like the Deos x Machina of like their relationship drama honestly, 0:03:15.840 --> 0:03:20.160 which I loved um and I foresee Harry in season two. 0:03:20.280 --> 0:03:22.080 To be honest, I think that makes her the fourth 0:03:22.120 --> 0:03:25.640 girl good well, I mean I don't know about I mean, 0:03:25.680 --> 0:03:27.440 she would be amazing at them as the fourth note. 0:03:27.480 --> 0:03:29.720 But we should use her, use her space. I don't 0:03:29.720 --> 0:03:32.079 think they deserve her. I don't actually trust these women 0:03:32.120 --> 0:03:35.360 with like a trans friend because hart character is trans 0:03:35.520 --> 0:03:39.440 in this iteration at the at the mitzvah, which I mean, 0:03:39.480 --> 0:03:41.720 I guess let's getting to the stuff that I didn't like. 0:03:41.960 --> 0:03:48.120 Because Rock York Golden Black needs to be in jail. Um. 0:03:48.200 --> 0:03:51.240 I think actually everyone and and just like that should 0:03:51.240 --> 0:03:54.520 be in jail. The only person who shouldn't be is 0:03:54.640 --> 0:03:57.320 Rabbi Jen. She can have the keys, she can lock 0:03:57.400 --> 0:04:01.280 them up, but everyone everyone else belongs in prison. I 0:04:01.320 --> 0:04:04.520 will say, as a Jews I was happy to see 0:04:05.240 --> 0:04:08.560 like such an accurate representation of what one of these 0:04:08.680 --> 0:04:12.800 over the top barmitz was looks like that being said, 0:04:14.040 --> 0:04:17.080 it was so unrealistic that they would just let Rock 0:04:17.360 --> 0:04:19.839 not go through with it. Although it was funny to 0:04:19.880 --> 0:04:23.520 see them trying to bribe Rock, because that is very 0:04:23.520 --> 0:04:26.400 fucking funny. What do you want an oculut? That definitely 0:04:26.440 --> 0:04:29.400 happened to me in some way, like I was given 0:04:29.520 --> 0:04:34.120 some kind of material reward for like training for my 0:04:34.200 --> 0:04:37.560 bar mitzvah, but like just trying to bribe Rock just 0:04:37.680 --> 0:04:41.000 to do it was like I imagine that has happened 0:04:41.040 --> 0:04:44.479 to a lot of people, but what a fucking little 0:04:44.839 --> 0:04:48.000 piece of ship. I feel like I had a slightly 0:04:48.040 --> 0:04:52.040 different takeaway from this. I was on Team Rock. I 0:04:52.080 --> 0:04:54.440 thought also Rock licked Dora that I have to go. 0:04:54.640 --> 0:04:57.200 I've got to go. This podcast is over. Rock was 0:04:57.600 --> 0:05:00.760 not a Team Rock podcast. Also, have never heard Rocky 0:05:00.880 --> 0:05:03.720 or Golden Black said out loud, which is was very 0:05:03.800 --> 0:05:06.200 jarring for you to say, But now that I'm hearing it, 0:05:06.279 --> 0:05:08.920 like I I know this person. I know Rocky or 0:05:09.120 --> 0:05:12.560 Golden Black like a some crunchy queer hipster pretending to 0:05:12.600 --> 0:05:16.760 be some crunchy queer hipster, but it's actually, yeah, yeah, 0:05:17.360 --> 0:05:19.960 We've worked with them, We've had sex with them, we've 0:05:19.960 --> 0:05:23.840 been at parties with them. Like but I I, you know, 0:05:24.000 --> 0:05:26.479 I thought it was an amazing plot point, and I 0:05:26.520 --> 0:05:29.640 was totally on rock side about kind of coming coming 0:05:29.680 --> 0:05:31.560 at a head in so many different areas of your 0:05:31.600 --> 0:05:33.560 life and being like, Okay, these are all the things 0:05:33.600 --> 0:05:36.120 I've called in a question about my gender, So of course, 0:05:36.200 --> 0:05:38.440 like when like when I start to think about my religion, 0:05:38.440 --> 0:05:40.560 I'm gonna like question that too. And you know, a 0:05:40.640 --> 0:05:43.360 kid would wait until the eleventh hour to decide that 0:05:43.400 --> 0:05:45.720 they don't want to do this anymore, and I thought 0:05:45.720 --> 0:05:48.200 it was also I wish I had been explained more, 0:05:48.600 --> 0:05:50.760 but it was a really nice way to tie together 0:05:50.880 --> 0:05:53.400 what was wrong about the whole experience, which is that 0:05:53.760 --> 0:05:56.520 the whole day mitzvah was really about Charlotte. It was 0:05:56.560 --> 0:05:59.880 about what Charlotte wanted. Yeah, that was a mits was 0:06:00.040 --> 0:06:02.839 are about I know, but that's about the parents. Like 0:06:02.920 --> 0:06:05.679 that's kind of what Rock was trying to say but couldn't. 0:06:06.040 --> 0:06:09.279 And so suck it up, suck it up and take 0:06:09.720 --> 0:06:13.760 the thousands of dollars you're going to get his gifts. Yeah, 0:06:13.800 --> 0:06:16.240 And honestly, the vibe Roc was getting with a little 0:06:16.320 --> 0:06:19.440 like like kind of like a coexist kind of queer 0:06:19.520 --> 0:06:22.599 like kind of I did like Rock Suit. I like 0:06:22.800 --> 0:06:26.440 Ross Suit. The pink suit was great. I mean otherwise, like, 0:06:28.120 --> 0:06:31.640 I guess we have to talk about jay I. Okay, 0:06:31.720 --> 0:06:35.520 Chad is announcing their pilot via song at a huge 0:06:35.560 --> 0:06:39.320 party when like, I mean, yeah, getting a pilot is exciting, 0:06:39.440 --> 0:06:41.960 but also like that pilot is probably not getting picked up, 0:06:42.000 --> 0:06:44.280 and if it is, it's getting canceled after one season, 0:06:44.880 --> 0:06:48.560 So like have the party later, you know, Yeah, it's 0:06:48.600 --> 0:06:52.240 too early to celebrate. Although I love giving Sarah Ramirez 0:06:52.279 --> 0:06:55.040 a chance to sing they are a Broadway icon, as 0:06:55.080 --> 0:06:59.760 we have talked about. I thought like that the whole Miranda, 0:06:59.800 --> 0:07:01.840 I'm gonna go with you to l A thing was 0:07:01.880 --> 0:07:04.559 like really unhinged. I loved and going back to Harry, 0:07:04.640 --> 0:07:06.960 like the scene in the bathroom where they kind of 0:07:07.000 --> 0:07:09.120 like come at ahead of like are you going to Paris? 0:07:09.160 --> 0:07:10.160 Are you going to l A? Are you going to 0:07:10.240 --> 0:07:12.960 do both or neither? Whatever? Like that was so real, 0:07:13.040 --> 0:07:16.760 And I thought Miranda saying I'm allowed to change, like 0:07:16.880 --> 0:07:19.920 I'm allowed to completely up end everything you know about 0:07:19.960 --> 0:07:22.640 me as a character because I'm having a crisis, like 0:07:23.000 --> 0:07:25.640 I am calling into question everything that I've believed before 0:07:25.680 --> 0:07:28.200 this moment. I thought that that earned a lot of 0:07:28.200 --> 0:07:31.680 what we saw this season that was like so frustrating 0:07:31.720 --> 0:07:35.080 about you know, Miranda becoming this kind of hard to 0:07:35.120 --> 0:07:38.560 watch character. I don't know. There was just no resolution 0:07:38.720 --> 0:07:42.760 for it, though, because the resolution like saying I'm allowed 0:07:42.800 --> 0:07:46.160 to change, isn't the resolution of a story, especially if 0:07:46.200 --> 0:07:49.080 this does end up being the only season, Like that's 0:07:49.120 --> 0:07:52.240 where we leave Miranda. Yeah, I just need you to 0:07:52.280 --> 0:07:55.320 know that I don't I don't care who I'm dating 0:07:55.360 --> 0:07:58.360 I don't care if I'm dating like this Disney like 0:07:58.640 --> 0:08:02.280 prince of a human being. Like I would never ever 0:08:02.560 --> 0:08:05.000 pass up on a trip to Paris with you to 0:08:05.800 --> 0:08:09.960 dispel your husban. Thank you. That's really sweet of you. 0:08:10.040 --> 0:08:12.360 I would also never pay for you to come to 0:08:12.440 --> 0:08:15.400 Paris with me. I did love that. Once Miranda canceled, 0:08:15.480 --> 0:08:17.680 Carrie was like, Charlotte, I'm not going to Paris to people, 0:08:18.080 --> 0:08:21.240 there's no way. It was extremely accurate though it's and true. 0:08:21.280 --> 0:08:23.160 I mean, and Charlotte knows her place. She's like, yeah, 0:08:23.320 --> 0:08:26.560 like word like I understand. Yeah, with the Shadeas of 0:08:26.560 --> 0:08:29.040 it all, you know. I was reading this Vulture article 0:08:29.080 --> 0:08:31.960 where they interviewed all of the writers from and just 0:08:32.120 --> 0:08:35.640 like that, and one of them was saying, like, oh, yeah, 0:08:35.720 --> 0:08:38.040 we knew people were going to hate Shadeas, like that 0:08:38.120 --> 0:08:40.719 was the point. They were supposed to be this like caricature. 0:08:41.240 --> 0:08:45.200 And that just made me so angry because you can't 0:08:45.320 --> 0:08:48.560 say that after the fact, to like retcon your bad 0:08:48.720 --> 0:08:52.800 choices like that has to all be on the page 0:08:52.880 --> 0:08:54.959 when you write the script and on the screen when 0:08:55.000 --> 0:08:57.120 you shoot it. You can't say after you've seen all 0:08:57.160 --> 0:08:59.800 the tweets, like ha ha, we knew, we knew everyone 0:08:59.920 --> 0:09:03.240 was going to be Team Steve, like this was all intentional, 0:09:03.320 --> 0:09:06.960 because that's not clear from the show. All you have 0:09:07.080 --> 0:09:10.760 is the text and it doesn't It didn't work, And 0:09:10.800 --> 0:09:13.120 I call bullshit on that. I call bullshit as well, 0:09:13.240 --> 0:09:15.520 especially when there are no Latin or non binary writers 0:09:15.520 --> 0:09:17.480 in this room. It just makes them look bad, like 0:09:17.520 --> 0:09:19.400 they're punching down, you know what I mean. If like 0:09:19.640 --> 0:09:21.920 there were a bunch of men like writing a role 0:09:21.960 --> 0:09:24.480 for a woman as to like, you know, why she's 0:09:24.520 --> 0:09:26.599 like a funk up or whatever, like why she's like 0:09:26.640 --> 0:09:28.960 a villain, Like you would feel kind of a type 0:09:28.960 --> 0:09:31.200 of way about that, you know what I mean. There's 0:09:31.200 --> 0:09:34.679 a difference between creating a character that is so villainous 0:09:34.720 --> 0:09:37.360 that you love to hate them. She is someone we 0:09:37.480 --> 0:09:40.480 hate to hate. Like it's not fun to watch. There's 0:09:40.520 --> 0:09:44.080 nothing about what brings this character together that is satiating. 0:09:44.400 --> 0:09:47.240 And I think it's a testament to the intentions of 0:09:47.280 --> 0:09:50.720 their writing and what we see actually on screen versus 0:09:50.760 --> 0:09:53.439 like what we're reacting to. It's just it's just not 0:09:53.520 --> 0:09:56.040 sticking the landing to me. Also, sorry, she would never 0:09:56.080 --> 0:10:01.080 be monogamous, So there's I don't understand nor should nor 0:10:01.120 --> 0:10:03.240 should they have to be, you know, which is why 0:10:03.240 --> 0:10:06.000 it's like such a missed opportunity for there to be 0:10:06.080 --> 0:10:09.040 queer queer like actually like nonminary writers in this room 0:10:09.120 --> 0:10:12.080 to talk about like the nuances of what sex and 0:10:12.080 --> 0:10:15.080 the City characters could learn about queer relationships, which has 0:10:15.280 --> 0:10:18.360 so much to teach them. But honestly, this is rounding 0:10:18.400 --> 0:10:20.920 to like what I feel as like my resounding point 0:10:21.000 --> 0:10:24.800 about the finale, which is that where we are ending 0:10:25.040 --> 0:10:27.600 at the end of season one is actually where we 0:10:27.600 --> 0:10:29.680 we should have started, you know what I mean? I 0:10:29.720 --> 0:10:32.480 feel like season would have been just like that is 0:10:32.559 --> 0:10:35.600 so much like grief and like all these kind of 0:10:36.000 --> 0:10:39.760 character rearranges and so much like upheaval that was like 0:10:39.880 --> 0:10:43.400 not really earned, but like I would much rather start 0:10:43.600 --> 0:10:47.480 the season with biggest Dad. Miranda is divorced and dating 0:10:47.720 --> 0:10:50.959 someone non binary, you know, shar has a non binary kid. 0:10:51.200 --> 0:10:53.880 Samantha is about to re enter the franchise question mark, 0:10:53.960 --> 0:10:56.280 Like that is a starting point and I did not 0:10:56.400 --> 0:10:59.480 need to watch like the season worth of what was 0:10:59.559 --> 0:11:03.200 the Reject? Did Nicholas Sparks novel of like Carrie's grief 0:11:03.320 --> 0:11:05.560 plot line? You know what? I mean, like it really 0:11:05.760 --> 0:11:09.199 was not like the T and I didn't I didn't 0:11:09.200 --> 0:11:13.120 need it to forget. Yes, I didn't need to watch 0:11:13.160 --> 0:11:15.800 your like tragic kiss on a stoop with that, but 0:11:15.960 --> 0:11:18.320 I did like the kiss with the hot producer. That 0:11:18.480 --> 0:11:22.120 was good. We needed a start rebounds. Yeah, but like no, 0:11:22.320 --> 0:11:25.640 I I do think it makes sense that it ends 0:11:25.679 --> 0:11:30.199 in a more hopeful way than it started. Honestly, when 0:11:30.200 --> 0:11:35.080 they were talking about Miranda, Miranda and her internship, Miranda 0:11:35.360 --> 0:11:38.560 rejecting an are you kidding me? There isn't a world 0:11:38.760 --> 0:11:43.079 where in any fifty plus year old woman is vying 0:11:43.200 --> 0:11:45.480 for an internship or has any sort of stakes in 0:11:45.559 --> 0:11:49.600 an unpaid internship. Well, also, like it was just too 0:11:49.679 --> 0:11:53.319 late to introduce that as an obstacle, Like they should 0:11:53.360 --> 0:11:56.360 have seeded that earlier in the season, like show us 0:11:56.440 --> 0:11:59.280 her trying to get the internships, so we understand what 0:11:59.440 --> 0:12:01.679 she's giving, and it should be like the state was 0:12:01.800 --> 0:12:04.160 so unclear she I mean it could be an apprenticeship. 0:12:04.200 --> 0:12:06.880 It should she should be at the directorial level, Like 0:12:06.920 --> 0:12:10.400 there's she's studied, she has all this experience in another field. 0:12:10.559 --> 0:12:13.040 She would have come back and been at a much 0:12:13.120 --> 0:12:16.760 higher level. It just doesn't make sense. Um. But all 0:12:16.840 --> 0:12:20.720 that to say, even though the finale was not really 0:12:20.760 --> 0:12:22.960 that great at tying all of the ends that we 0:12:22.960 --> 0:12:26.679 were interested in, I did enjoy my way through it, 0:12:26.800 --> 0:12:30.000 um with with the exception of like the Talking Lamp 0:12:30.040 --> 0:12:32.560 and like the ashes of it all. Yeah, well I 0:12:32.600 --> 0:12:38.160 don't this is not you know, ooky spooky our. That's 0:12:38.200 --> 0:12:40.520 not what I came here for. And like also her 0:12:40.600 --> 0:12:43.520 saying that bigs in Heaven, I hate to break it 0:12:43.559 --> 0:12:47.480 to you, but biggest burning in hell in hell in hell, 0:12:47.679 --> 0:12:50.080 I am going to miss the show. I'm gonna miss. Well, 0:12:50.120 --> 0:12:51.679 I'm gonna miss. I don't know what I'm going to 0:12:51.800 --> 0:12:54.960 do on Thursdays anymore. Okay, Well, what have you been 0:12:55.000 --> 0:12:58.240 watching this week? M oh, I've been listening to a 0:12:58.240 --> 0:13:00.520 lot of the new music that's been coming out. I 0:13:00.640 --> 0:13:05.520 shockingly love the new Mitsky album, and I am on record, 0:13:05.640 --> 0:13:12.040 possibly on this podcast, as not really being into Mitsky. Surprising. Yeah, 0:13:12.120 --> 0:13:14.480 it is surprising because she does seem like someone who 0:13:14.520 --> 0:13:18.120 would be exactly my Josh, but Be the Cowboy really 0:13:18.400 --> 0:13:20.920 didn't do it for me and I even after listening 0:13:20.920 --> 0:13:23.520 to her new album, I went back and listened to 0:13:23.600 --> 0:13:26.160 Be the Cowboy to be like, oh was I like 0:13:26.240 --> 0:13:28.520 not giving it a fair shot, and no I still 0:13:28.559 --> 0:13:31.520 don't like it. Um. I think it's this something specific 0:13:31.559 --> 0:13:35.080 about this album, like it's very cynthy um, which I 0:13:35.120 --> 0:13:38.480 really liked. Um, and you know, it's like so good 0:13:38.520 --> 0:13:40.960 that I will even forgive it for only being like 0:13:41.200 --> 0:13:46.960 thirty minutes long, which girls make your albums longer. We 0:13:47.000 --> 0:13:51.120 are not. I'm not here for EPs. No, no, no cowards, 0:13:51.200 --> 0:13:54.360 come on. I also I'm I'm I like Mitsky, but 0:13:54.360 --> 0:13:56.839 I'm not a Mitsky head. This album also appealed to 0:13:56.880 --> 0:14:00.480 me because if it's it's dance, I guess um vibes 0:14:00.800 --> 0:14:03.360 I Love should have been me. That's maybe my favorite 0:14:03.360 --> 0:14:06.000 song on the album. I think that should have been 0:14:06.000 --> 0:14:08.440 the way it kind of like good. I Also one 0:14:08.480 --> 0:14:13.079 of my friends, Jaslin, did the choreography for this Stay 0:14:13.120 --> 0:14:16.320 is Soft music video I think, which is also a 0:14:16.360 --> 0:14:19.360 really good song. Um. But yeah, I mean welcome to 0:14:19.400 --> 0:14:21.640 the Mitsky clan. I'm I'm glad to have you Rose. 0:14:21.680 --> 0:14:24.920 All of the girls on this side of town are 0:14:24.960 --> 0:14:28.080 are here to welcome you. Yeah. I loved like the 0:14:28.120 --> 0:14:31.960 only heartbreaker is so good love me more. There's definitely 0:14:32.040 --> 0:14:34.800 more of um, like a st vincent kind of vibe 0:14:34.880 --> 0:14:38.040 on this album, which really appeals to me. And I'm 0:14:38.080 --> 0:14:42.120 just so happy that we have, you know, these women 0:14:42.160 --> 0:14:45.840 who are still making rock and roll um that you know, 0:14:45.960 --> 0:14:48.720 because that is very much like a musical sweet spot 0:14:48.800 --> 0:14:51.520 for me. Also, this weekend, I was listening to on 0:14:51.680 --> 0:14:56.840 repeat um the machine Gun Kelly and Willow Songmo Girls. 0:14:56.920 --> 0:14:59.560 I winced and then smiled because I was like, machine 0:14:59.560 --> 0:15:03.120 Gun Kelly, No Willow, Yeah, Okay, yeah, it's a It's 0:15:03.160 --> 0:15:05.280 the song called Emo Girl, and it's about being in 0:15:05.320 --> 0:15:08.120 love with an emo girl, and it's like it's so 0:15:08.240 --> 0:15:11.800 catchy and like addictive Willow. The Willow clubs are sick 0:15:11.920 --> 0:15:15.280 the club with Avril when av was so good, perfect 0:15:15.400 --> 0:15:20.160 use of Avril. I just it's it was so well done. Okay, 0:15:20.240 --> 0:15:22.400 moving on to Drag Race. The only thing I have 0:15:22.520 --> 0:15:27.160 to say is that this is the funniest mini challenge 0:15:27.400 --> 0:15:31.400 in the history of Drag Race, point blank period. I 0:15:31.520 --> 0:15:34.160 was it was very funny when Sa McLaughlin showed up, 0:15:34.160 --> 0:15:36.840 I gag. I think the challenges have been really good 0:15:36.840 --> 0:15:40.200 this season, like this and like last week where they 0:15:40.200 --> 0:15:43.560 had to make the teaser, like that's very inventive and 0:15:43.600 --> 0:15:47.160 I really like it. Um. My big takeaway from this 0:15:47.200 --> 0:15:53.480 episode was Georgia's fucking eight that lip sing. Honestly, like 0:15:53.680 --> 0:15:57.960 she should have um, I don't know, like one twice 0:15:58.120 --> 0:16:01.080 because of it. They should she should have like retroactively 0:16:01.120 --> 0:16:03.840 won the challenge because of how good that lip sync performance. 0:16:03.880 --> 0:16:05.480 I kind of think Georgia should have been in the 0:16:05.520 --> 0:16:07.880 bottom last episode two and maybe the episode before that, 0:16:07.880 --> 0:16:09.600 because I would have loved to watch her lip sync 0:16:09.640 --> 0:16:12.520 for her life every time, Like she I think is 0:16:12.560 --> 0:16:14.520 an assassin. Like I don't think we even saw her 0:16:15.320 --> 0:16:17.320 in that episode. No, I don't think so either. I 0:16:17.360 --> 0:16:21.560 do wonder if she'll because I think I think about 0:16:21.600 --> 0:16:25.480 like the narrative slots that that different contestants fill in 0:16:25.520 --> 0:16:28.840 their season. I wonder if she will be one of 0:16:28.880 --> 0:16:33.440 the ones who does poorly early on and then realizes 0:16:33.480 --> 0:16:35.400 they have to step their pussy up and ends up 0:16:35.440 --> 0:16:37.160 making it, you know, all the way to the end, 0:16:37.960 --> 0:16:40.480 or vain, or or if she's just like, you know, 0:16:40.720 --> 0:16:42.880 going to have a couple of fierce lip sings and 0:16:42.880 --> 0:16:44.920 then eventually they're like, okay, but you still suck in 0:16:44.960 --> 0:16:47.360 the challenges, so you're going home. Yeah, I mean it's 0:16:47.360 --> 0:16:50.400 going to be a Cheachy or a Trinity Cabon, a 0:16:50.480 --> 0:16:52.800 kind of redemption. Maybe I would love to see that, 0:16:52.840 --> 0:16:55.080 to be honest, even if she's not technically as good 0:16:55.120 --> 0:16:57.880 as some of the other girls. Are you watching UK 0:16:58.200 --> 0:17:01.240 versus the World? I am, we are, you know, I 0:17:01.280 --> 0:17:04.160 haven't watched it, but I'm I'm interested. Can I please 0:17:04.280 --> 0:17:07.320 please please please, ma'am yeuse I I give you to 0:17:07.400 --> 0:17:10.520 watch Drag Race Canada season one because like, I'm not watching. 0:17:10.560 --> 0:17:13.080 I'm not watching. I'm not watching a seasonal drag Race 0:17:13.119 --> 0:17:15.840 without RuPaul. No. That's another thing I'll say about this 0:17:15.880 --> 0:17:19.520 current season of Drag Race that Mr Paul is kind 0:17:19.560 --> 0:17:25.000 of serving like he's he's been really on his game. Um, 0:17:25.119 --> 0:17:28.880 and I have to say, like, that's why I won't watch, 0:17:29.440 --> 0:17:33.480 you know, like many of these international seasons, because it's 0:17:33.560 --> 0:17:36.639 not drag Race without RuPaul for me. I mean, I okay, 0:17:36.680 --> 0:17:39.280 I agree with the sentiment of what you're saying, especially 0:17:39.280 --> 0:17:40.919 even though as I say that I can feel the 0:17:41.040 --> 0:17:45.959 estrogen beings out of my body. Um. I think, um, 0:17:46.000 --> 0:17:48.520 particularly with the game we watched, like I love that 0:17:48.560 --> 0:17:54.040 they're straight up hazing Maddie morphosis, Like yeah, yeah, they 0:17:54.040 --> 0:17:57.440 are like every like like when when it was Maddie's turn, 0:17:57.480 --> 0:18:04.680 they were like, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what I love, rude, 0:18:04.800 --> 0:18:07.560 that's what Yeah, it was that very much was the 0:18:07.680 --> 0:18:11.000 energy like you're gay but rose all of the virgin 0:18:11.080 --> 0:18:13.439 I wish Maddie. I wish Maddy MorphOS is like said no, 0:18:13.640 --> 0:18:16.479 homo before she started doing it, like I want her 0:18:16.520 --> 0:18:18.080 to be in on the joke a little more if 0:18:18.080 --> 0:18:21.600 we have to have her. Yeah, I agree, it's whatever. 0:18:22.080 --> 0:18:24.320 But on that note, you would not be saying what 0:18:24.359 --> 0:18:26.960 you're saying about rue if you saw her runway for 0:18:27.080 --> 0:18:28.840 UK Versus the World, which I know you did because 0:18:28.840 --> 0:18:31.720 you saw my Instagram story. But girl, she cleaned up 0:18:31.760 --> 0:18:35.879 at Sheen. She got her this ugly ass velvet like 0:18:36.119 --> 0:18:39.560 pink string. Who she dress so something you would wear 0:18:39.600 --> 0:18:42.320 a till party. Yeah, looked like a full mall rat. 0:18:42.400 --> 0:18:48.000 Yeah yeah, giving me my brats doll aesthetic. Yeah yeah, exactly, 0:18:48.640 --> 0:18:51.800 a tell far bag in a poorly done smoky eye. Um. 0:18:51.840 --> 0:18:55.760 But yeah, you're getting there. No, no, no, everyone sending 0:18:55.800 --> 0:18:58.440 me please send in makeup tips for France. I will 0:18:58.520 --> 0:19:01.480 I will receive makeup tips if you receive campaigns to 0:19:01.640 --> 0:19:05.040 please watch Canada Season one because coming back to UK 0:19:05.200 --> 0:19:09.920 Versus the World. Jimbo and his involvement in that season 0:19:10.480 --> 0:19:14.040 is like essential knowledge for watching UK versus the World. 0:19:14.119 --> 0:19:16.879 You have to see what Jimbo does with his art 0:19:16.920 --> 0:19:20.320 in order to see someone send me in a YouTube 0:19:20.359 --> 0:19:23.560 super cut with the highlights. I'll watch them. Fine, I'm 0:19:23.560 --> 0:19:26.640 not watching the whole season. Okay, fine, fine, if you're 0:19:26.640 --> 0:19:28.520 not going to watch it. But my point is for 0:19:28.560 --> 0:19:31.040 those that aren't watching UK's Versus the World, I don't 0:19:31.040 --> 0:19:33.879 know why it's called that. It's not formatted as a 0:19:34.000 --> 0:19:37.120 UK versus the rest of the people on this show. 0:19:37.200 --> 0:19:40.679 It is literally just International All Stars. It's All Stars rules. 0:19:40.680 --> 0:19:43.480 So the winner's lip sync and they eliminate someone from 0:19:43.480 --> 0:19:46.639 the bottom two. So, I mean, I love those rules. 0:19:46.760 --> 0:19:48.600 I'm it makes it so much more fun to watch it. 0:19:48.640 --> 0:19:51.040 What's really fascinating is they did not enter the workroom. 0:19:51.160 --> 0:19:53.000 They entered the runway, and it was kind of a 0:19:53.040 --> 0:19:56.040 little like Meet the Queen's kind of moment, or re 0:19:56.160 --> 0:19:59.120 Meet the Queen's kind of moment, as opposed to, um, 0:19:59.160 --> 0:20:00.919 you know this, like we're chroom drama that kind of 0:20:00.960 --> 0:20:03.720 happens at the beginning. But I mean, some of my 0:20:04.320 --> 0:20:07.639 main takeaways from the show are that there's just like 0:20:08.080 --> 0:20:12.320 nothing left behind Jujubes eyes, like she's just dead girl 0:20:12.560 --> 0:20:15.280 dead inside. I I she is one of my all 0:20:15.520 --> 0:20:18.679 time favorites, and it's it's really hard. She's one of 0:20:18.680 --> 0:20:20.879 the best, She's one of the best, and it's so 0:20:20.920 --> 0:20:23.000 hard to watch her do this because her soul just 0:20:23.280 --> 0:20:27.040 isn't in it anymore at all. Like even big Juju 0:20:27.080 --> 0:20:29.480 fans like me can admit that, like this was such 0:20:29.520 --> 0:20:33.760 a below average like performance in the beginning of the show, 0:20:34.000 --> 0:20:37.680 like you'll see it's just like so like not Juju, 0:20:37.880 --> 0:20:40.560 And honestly, you just like see the light leaver eyes 0:20:40.600 --> 0:20:44.280 as RuPaul cackles in the bathroom and as RuPaul cackles 0:20:44.320 --> 0:20:46.920 in the background, Um, I just wanted to say, RuPaul's 0:20:46.960 --> 0:20:49.640 in the bathroom making sure that there's no treadswomen in there. 0:20:51.280 --> 0:20:53.040 She's like here he called me, get your ass out 0:20:53.040 --> 0:20:59.920 of Um. What Jimbo does on UK Versus the World 0:21:00.200 --> 0:21:03.800 is high art and it honestly helped made me appreciate 0:21:03.880 --> 0:21:07.600 what few like performance artists we have on this show. 0:21:07.680 --> 0:21:10.600 Like I think willow Hill is kind of performance. I 0:21:10.640 --> 0:21:14.720 think even like Sasha Willowers heartbreaking on this episode of 0:21:14.760 --> 0:21:16.800 Drag Race. She was so good and then when she 0:21:16.840 --> 0:21:20.200 was talking about her body breaking down, it was so sad. 0:21:20.440 --> 0:21:22.720 That was the moment I want her to win me too, 0:21:22.760 --> 0:21:25.640 because Cornbread getting eliminated. We need to talk about cornbread. 0:21:25.760 --> 0:21:28.199 I was goop gooped. It was a good episode. It 0:21:28.240 --> 0:21:31.920 was an exquisite episode of television in in large part 0:21:31.920 --> 0:21:34.359 because of these twists and turns. These girls are selling 0:21:34.400 --> 0:21:38.640 their souls and holes away to Satan slash rubaal that 0:21:38.640 --> 0:21:40.520 that they are, that they are, and the same as 0:21:40.520 --> 0:21:43.000
