All-Stars 9, the upcoming Pride

0:17

season 2. Plus some

0:20

political chat about student encampments. And

0:23

the DMs are full of

0:25

questions about friendships, orthodontia, and

0:27

other such sundry items. Are

0:30

you ready to goss about it, sis? These

0:34

legs are made to goss. And

0:36

they're the last thing to go. M.

0:43

O. M. Mom!

0:55

1:06

almost too hot. I ordered extra hot, almost too hot.

1:09

Welcome back for another

1:12

steaming, piping, scalding serving

1:15

of hot goss. This

1:17

is our weekly chat show where we talk about

1:20

events in our lives, gossip, and politics, and take

1:22

a deep dive into the DMs. So let's get

1:24

into some hot goss.

1:27

That's hot goss. Now,

1:30

this is a very

1:33

special episode because we have

1:35

a special guest co-host

1:37

today. She's the

1:39

host of the Hit Runaway

1:42

Hit podcast, Fairy Delta. This

1:45

is Delta Work. Hi. Hello.

1:49

Whoa. I

1:53

never know, like, in what capacity, like,

1:55

I know the capacity in which I'm here.

2:00

But I never know like what to do because

2:02

I'm like I don't want to take over and

2:04

I don't want to like say something Where it's

2:06

like girl. That's not your turn. You know what

2:08

I mean? like it's every show

2:10

is different and you don't want to like show

2:12

up and be like Bucket

2:16

I don't want people to think I'm crazier than they already know

2:18

I am I Want

2:21

you to feel? Free

2:23

to speak freely. Okay here

2:26

in this space because I

2:28

mean I Would like

2:30

to regard this as like I'm

2:32

just invited into your conversation Like I'm just chit-chatting

2:34

with you and I always feel comfortable with that.

2:36

So Okay, it's just like

2:38

people are recording it like big dippers when I

2:41

say people I mean big dipper He's

2:43

a person What

2:50

are you drinking I

2:52

am drinking tea this is throat

2:55

coat tea, okay Which

2:58

I just love do they

3:00

have throat goat tea or

3:02

just throat coat they do Willem

3:05

is actually that's why he's not

3:07

here because he's on a shoot

3:09

for promoting throat goat tea, right?

3:11

Thank you I'm

3:13

not wrong Now

3:15

this is what this is what there's a couple things

3:17

I need to know about what

3:21

Was going on with Netflix as a joke Do

3:25

you feel at Liberty to talk about it? Yeah,

3:27

I mean I think so I feel like I

3:29

you do a pose and this

3:31

was hearkening back to the vague booking

3:33

days and you were like You

3:36

were like this is not gonna work out.

3:38

Don't play in my face. This is some

3:40

bullshit and that's a quote-unquote joke Right.

3:43

Well, I'm assuming it was about Netflix

3:45

as a joke I think this initially

3:47

began as they have a podcast with

3:49

our friend Justin Martindale and this conversation

3:51

was not when Justin The conversation had nothing

3:54

to do with Justin. He did not initiate

3:56

the conversation none of it right

3:58

the was Netflix

4:02

as a joke is having a festival and

4:04

there's lots of pop-ups all over the place

4:07

and so

4:09

there's going to be headlined events, there's

4:11

going to be smaller events and they

4:13

thought in a way that they would

4:16

shape their interview for

4:18

this particular night by

4:20

bringing me in. Yeah.

4:23

And I thought that sounds like fun.

4:25

Now I get our industry and I

4:27

know what our industry is, we've all

4:29

been on other people's podcasts as

4:31

guests, there's a different parameter for showing

4:33

up as a guest or

4:35

a host, a fill-in host, a

4:38

co-host. There's all different expectations

4:41

as we know. So when I

4:43

was called into this and invited into this,

4:47

the conversation was you'll be, you'll

4:49

go on at a certain time,

4:51

we don't know that

4:53

time just yet because we're working out those

4:55

things. You'll be interviewed for about 75 minutes

4:57

and we would

5:00

like for you

5:02

to do like a fresh monologue not

5:04

unlike what you do on your own

5:06

show and these things and these

5:08

are the things that we will do. You'll do them at the

5:11

Belly Room, it'll be a lot of fun and it does sound

5:13

like a lot of fun and I've always, I've

5:15

known Justin Martindale but we've never worked in

5:17

any professional capacity together but I love him,

5:20

I share his content, he's always

5:22

been supportive of mine. So this has nothing to do with the

5:28

creative end of it but my question was

5:30

okay, thanks for that information, is there

5:33

an honorarium for this event that

5:35

is being branded by Netflix? So

5:38

if there's a branding,

5:40

in my experience, if there's a branding

5:43

for any event anywhere,

5:45

there is a budget to use

5:47

that branding. My

5:49

concern is that very often that money for

5:52

branding never trickles

5:55

down to talent for some reason. It does

5:58

show up in a in

6:01

facades outside of the venue.

6:03

It shows up in napkins.

6:06

It shows up maybe for production, but

6:08

it's not trickling down to talent, which

6:11

is interesting to me because I would

6:13

imagine, even though they didn't say it,

6:15

I would imagine that an event like

6:17

this that may be prerecorded and may

6:19

have ticket sales happening. Most

6:23

likely. Most likely. There would be

6:25

revenue somewhere. So I thought, all right, well, maybe

6:28

there's not an honorarium. I get it. But

6:30

I'm sure they will have no problem covering car

6:32

service for this. Like you just grabbed my Uber

6:34

receipt. No tea. That was not available either. So

6:37

I'm like, so you're not going to compensate

6:40

or facilitate, but you are going to invite

6:42

me. I mean, so

6:44

that was my issue is I

6:46

just feel like in some way

6:50

somebody could have said, please just give me your Uber

6:52

receipt. It's fine. I mean

6:54

something. That's also a very

6:56

heavy ask. I mean, a 75

6:58

minute interview and then a monologue,

7:00

which is like your, your

7:03

main product on your show

7:06

that to not, I

7:08

mean that, that to

7:11

not sort of compensate in

7:13

any way, you shouldn't be doing that. Right.

7:16

From a business standpoint, because that's giving

7:19

your product away for free. Your, your

7:21

product is in demand. People

7:23

want it. People pay for it. So

7:27

it's good that you're not doing that. It

7:29

is preposterous. I mean, if you were coming

7:31

on and it was a 15 minute thing

7:33

and it was just a, oh, wave and

7:35

say hello, then it would be like car

7:37

and an honorarium is fine. But like, if

7:39

you're doing all that, you should be absolutely

7:42

paid with a capital P. I just

7:44

didn't want to drive there and drag.

7:46

I mean, honestly, that's what I

7:49

just, you know, I'll get in

7:51

drag for whatever. But at the same time,

7:53

I'm like, well, wait a minute though. Like

7:55

will you and and why, why would you

7:57

like, then it's

7:59

parking. Then it's getting from the

8:01

car to the kakada ka and

8:03

then it's Which

8:05

for a drag queen is

8:08

a whole different experience, right

8:10

a parking garage in drag

8:16

Think about it. It's like Rose island

8:18

in that episode of the Golden Girls where she's running

8:21

in the parking garage Completely

8:24

It's very that you know And I

8:26

we we all want to be

8:28

as real as possible about everything and we don't want to

8:31

come off as like I have these Extra

8:33

special demands. I didn't think it was being demanding

8:35

I just thought and now and no one said

8:37

that they were very gracious about it And I

8:39

even said to the the dude that I was

8:41

communicating with like I know this is not your

8:44

decision Like I know you can only offer up

8:46

what's available to you But I

8:48

need you to know like if you if you have

8:50

in fact been listening to the podcast at any point

8:52

And and you do say that

8:54

you know, you're aware of the

8:56

content then you would have heard of compensation

8:59

versus facilitation You would

9:01

have heard of that and you would not have sent

9:03

this message That's

9:06

so that's goofball to me,

9:08

you know, you

9:10

have a live show coming up Mm-hmm

9:14

in Boise wait In

9:16

Boise, right? We just did that when we

9:19

did tree fort and pod fort I

9:21

went I went with work. Yeah, I went with

9:24

dipper and and meatball and it was

9:26

so fun It was really really good. Yeah,

9:28

what is this one coming up? Queer

9:32

bar Seattle. Yes. Yes that

9:34

is When does this

9:36

9:38

9:53

show and sat down with

9:55

Jane don't who's like the resident

9:58

diva there so fun,

10:00

so kind, so silly. And then

10:03

there was just a conversation like, who, what about

10:05

a longer version of the chit chat that the

10:07

two of you did? But then why

10:09

not bring Jane in as a guest? Because

10:12

she's well known in the area and let's

10:14

just do it. So it's tonight and I'm

15:15

Do you believe that the legs are the last to go? Um,

15:19

I haven't felt my legs in so long so I don't

15:22

really know. I think they were the

15:24

first to go actually. I

15:28

definitely know that to be true. I

15:30

think the last thing to go is probably

15:34

um the nerve. I think

15:36

that the gall, the unmitigated

15:38

gall. The gall does

15:41

need to still be in full

15:43

working order. Right. It really

15:45

does. Are you keeping

15:47

up with All-Stars 9? Okay,

15:49

so um I is

15:52

it hasn't already started? No, uh

15:55

it starts in May

15:58

something like May 17th. or

16:00

something. So I still have to watch the

16:03

last regular season of Drag Race.

16:05

I haven't seen any of that. Are you going

16:07

to though? I am. I am. You are? I

16:09

really am such a huge fan of the show.

16:12

But I'm extra a fan of anything all

16:14

stars because I always feel like we already

16:16

have ponies in the race. You know what

16:19

I mean? You know your girls. We're friends

16:21

with the girls. We know them. Yeah. And

16:23

you know like for a lot

16:25

of girls, you know like, oh I know

16:27

what her buttons are. I know what her

16:30

buttons are. And I know. Chanel? Yeah. I

16:32

mean Chanel's my girlfriend. I just, I,

16:34

we just talked about on I think

16:38

an upcoming episode of Very Delta. I

16:40

pulled out a flyer from when we

16:43

first started working in Vegas. And this

16:45

is, I'm talking like 2004 maybe.

16:48

Oh. We took

16:50

a show there and it was myself, Chanel and

16:52

Vanity Halston. And we had our own little photo

16:55

shoot. We didn't have any wardrobe for a photo

16:57

shoot. So we got sheets and wrapped them around

16:59

us. Like we were like,

17:02

like, goddessy. And I remember

17:04

I did Chanel's wig for this and it was

17:06

my first time doing like a, like a big

17:08

updo. And she was like, think Frank

17:10

Marino. That's what we're thinking. Frank Marino. And

17:13

so we did that. And she had that.

17:15

And like, so I, we just

17:17

talked about this and Vegas was like at the time

17:19

there was nothing. So there's a legitimate flyer because I'll

17:22

bring it up when people are like, oh, have you

17:24

ever worked in Vegas? And I'm like, well, actually, maybe

17:26

you really want to know the history.

17:30

Here's a flyer. And cause people will say

17:32

that bar doesn't exist. I'm like, no, it

17:34

doesn't. It's a Metro PCS store now. Like,

17:37

but once upon a time, you

17:39

know, once upon a time. So yeah,

17:41

I know Chanel, like we shared some

17:43

stories on this episode coming up, but

17:46

that I could, I think bear repeating.

17:48

We used to drive every

17:50

Sunday to Las Vegas and

17:52

Chanel had a like a Mazda,

17:54

I think it was like a Mazda two 80

17:57

Z or something with no back

17:59

seats. And

18:01

we would fucking go and we have a

18:03

blast. So it was such a different time.

18:05

And then to watch people sort of evolve

18:08

and find themselves and to see Chanel, Chanel

18:11

has always been grand. She's

18:13

always been beautiful. She's always

18:15

been luxurious. These are the words that I think

18:17

of when I think of Chanel. But

18:21

you know, we all know each other even before.

18:23

I remember when Chanel was working with Jules at

18:25

Glamour Shots in Westminster. So, you know, you

18:28

can remember all those things, but why not create

18:30

the movie In Your Mind, I say.

18:33

And I think that's what a lot

18:35

of us do. And so I'm excited to see

18:37

her. I know she's been on All Stars already

18:39

at least once. Yeah.

18:42

What are you looking forward to? One

18:45

of my first memories of Chanel was

18:47

at Hear Lounge. Oh,

18:50

wow, okay. Down there in

18:52

West Toholio, it's where like

18:54

the chapel is now. Okay. But

18:58

I used to do shows there periodically when

19:00

I was first starting drag, but Chanel was

19:02

like the big like guest, like out of

19:04

town guest. And she came

19:06

and she was like checking out the stage

19:08

before the show. And she was

19:11

in full drag face, but like a baseball

19:13

cap and like, you know, her like day

19:15

clothes. And I was like, oh

19:17

my God, can you do that? Can

19:20

you do that? Can you,

19:22

this, I had never, I was like,

19:24

oh my God. She's like, she's kind

19:27

of in drag, but not like, oh my

19:30

God, I was so blown away by that.

19:32

Was it a rhinestone baseball cap though? That's

19:34

really- It was just normal. It was very,

19:36

you know, her day looks,

19:38

she's, you know, she's trade

19:41

category, you know. Who

19:46

am I, who am I rooting? Who's

19:48

my horse in the race? Oh, Roxie Anders. Yeah,

19:50

you can't read the doll. You

19:53

can't read the doll. Have you seen all

19:55

the memes of people taking You Can't Read

19:57

the Doll and chopping it up into different

19:59

things? things. A few of them,

20:02

a few of them, yeah. Like,

20:04

um, one of them was like

20:06

Ryan Murphy to Leah Michelle. Baby,

20:09

you can't read. You can't

20:14

read. He said she's illiterate, so

20:16

people chop it up. And

20:19

then one of them, the caption is like

20:22

me telling, uh, me

20:25

telling my cousin that

20:27

my, my transgender

20:29

friend is illiterate.

20:31

And then they cut it up to, baby, the

20:34

doll can't read. Oh my

20:39

God. I saw one that said the

20:41

country with the worst Mexican food and

20:43

it was just UK for

20:47

UK. People

20:50

are crazy. People see things so much

20:52

more sometimes than like, you know, you

20:55

would even imagine. I feel like if

20:58

there was that much effort put

21:00

into things like, I don't know,

21:02

public policy or climate change, the

21:04

world would be like a utopian

21:07

right society. If people

21:09

got likes and hearts

21:12

for like making a world

21:15

hunger stop, like people, we would

21:17

solve it in like five minutes.

21:20

Politics is men's business. You know

21:22

that. Oh,

21:24

girl, girl. Oh,

21:27

well, well, well, well,

21:29

Billy Eilish, a lesbian. Uh, I am sexual. Oh,

21:35

I don't know. I

21:37

don't know much about Billy. In

21:39

a new interview in Rolling Stone, Eilish

21:43

opened up about everything from her

21:45

forthcoming new album to masturbation and

21:48

being outed by a red carpet

21:50

among more direct and explicit leaning

21:52

clarifications on her sexuality. Billy Eilish

21:55

discussed her timeline coming to terms

21:57

with her sexuality, sharing the very

22:00

relatable tidbit that she had been in love

22:02

with girls her whole life and

22:04

then finally realized she wanted her

22:06

faith in a vagina. Oh,

22:09

I did see that. I did see that.

22:11

I actually, um, oh gosh,

22:13

I felt like when I try to correlate things

22:15

and it's like outing other people or whatever, but

22:18

there's a, you know what I mean? Like, cause

22:20

I was like, Oh, that reminds me of so

22:22

and so who's a gigantic lesbian. And then people

22:25

are like, no, she's not. She just has short

22:27

hair. Like you're mean or presumptuous

22:29

at least. No. Um,

22:32

love think I'm excited about

22:34

that. Um, right. Kind

22:36

of, uh, I'm excited about

22:38

the Brittany Griner interview. Cause she's like,

22:41

I saw clip of the interview with

22:43

Brittany Griner and, um, there's

22:45

a conversation about like, w w

22:47

just entirely about what it's like being in this

22:49

Russian jail. And

22:52

there's a conversation about like toothpaste that's been

22:55

expired for 20 years. Oh

22:57

my God. Can toothpaste go

22:59

bad? Over like what was it like weed or

23:01

something? Some weed. Yeah.

23:04

Like weed gates or something. Like empty cartridges. Yeah.

23:07

Oh, come on. And sentence, she

23:09

was sentenced to nine years in

23:11

a labor camp. Come on. Absolutely.

23:13

Until they got her out. My

23:16

brother in Christ. Uh,

23:20

Long Beach Pride is

23:23

coming up soon. How

23:25

do you celebrate? I

23:28

celebrate by trying to work as much

23:30

as I can. So like for years

23:33

I would be like jumping up on

23:35

that hamburger Mary's bus and going down

23:37

the parade route, screaming and laughing and

23:39

getting a sunburn. And I love

23:41

that. But if I have the option to not do

23:43

that and work the 15 brunches in

23:46

one day on Sunday, I would rather

23:48

do that. Um, yeah,

23:50

there's definitely a change. You know,

23:53

here's my thing about pride in

23:55

general anywhere. I love the idea

23:57

of featuring. Featuring

24:01

people, queer singers,

24:03

queer dance artists, queer

24:05

people from Drag Race, Dragula, Masdraga,

24:08

any of the shows, bringing someone

24:10

in that people have said in

24:12

the community, we'd love to see

24:14

that person come here. So that's

24:16

fun to feature that, but I

24:18

love to see a heavy featuring

24:20

of the community in a

24:22

community pride. And when I

24:24

don't see that, it

24:28

really makes me sad. So

24:33

as somebody who has been brought out of town

24:35

to go to other people's things, I do take

24:37

into consideration, like I wonder what the girls are

24:39

thinking around here. Like, are there entertainers that are

24:41

like, damn, we didn't even get a little $50

24:44

spot anywhere, but then everybody

24:46

else is coming in here. But I know that

24:48

they know the difference. The problem is there are

24:50

$50 spots, there are $100 spots, there are

24:52

$150 spots, there

24:54

are open stages and open mics. Why are they

24:56

not allowing that to be on the stages? I

24:58

don't know the full layout of Long Beach Pride,

25:00

but for all my years, there's always been a

25:03

main stage, a country tent,

25:06

a dance tent, a Latin tent. Country tent.

25:08

Oh yeah. I wanna do the country tent.

25:10

I did it before and we had a

25:12

fucking blast. Hell yeah.

25:14

So things have been sort of whittled down a

25:16

bit. And from what I understand, there's only one

25:18

stage with several squares

25:22

slash tents featuring whatever.

25:26

I don't know what it is, but

25:28

essentially, the entertainment is on one stage.

25:30

Excited to see that there are, I

25:35

think there's three or four headliners, but I'm always

25:37

curious to like, who

25:39

determined like what goes with what

25:41

for the headliners this year? So

25:44

they're all standout acts on

25:46

their own that everyone knows. Evie

25:49

Queen. Sossie

25:53

Santana. From

25:56

TikTok. Valentina.

26:00

Oh, and this is a sick thing one. Sabiana.

26:04

Love, love, love, love, love, Sabiana. So

26:07

it's nice to see some featuring

26:09

of people who may not have,

26:12

you know, just a, just a

26:14

drag race or, or a

26:16

record label behind them. It's nice to

26:19

see the featuring, but I just always

26:21

wonder like where, where did, how, you

26:23

know, many times pride committees are run

26:26

by people who may not have their finger on the

26:28

pulse of what's going on in the community. So

26:31

I'm wondering how and where the

26:34

names raised up to their radar where they're like, Oh,

26:36

we know of that person. We're going to put that

26:38

on. And it's like, Oh, that's kind

26:40

of sickening that you know that. How do you know that? Because

26:43

you've never known that before. Sometimes

26:47

the level of sort of

26:49

like corruption and skeeziness among

26:51

the people who like take

26:53

over a pride

26:56

celebration in a city

26:58

is staggering. And

27:01

it's like, how did this thing that's

27:03

supposed to be a celebration

27:06

of the community become like

27:09

owned by this small group of people who

27:11

are just trying to make money? It's

27:14

so crazy to me. Yeah. Music

27:16

festival. And, you know, last year we had

27:18

sort of a bit of another quote unquote

27:20

shakeup because there was Long Beach pride, but

27:23

there was also Long Beach proud, which was

27:25

a different festival. And

27:27

I got to tell you, I

27:29

worked at both and I

27:32

had a really good time at Long Beach

27:34

proud. Okay. It was

27:36

a different setup. It was a different setup,

27:38

a different location, a different group of people.

27:41

I absolutely hold the space for both of

27:43

them. But when those scales are

27:45

like going like, I don't know, I just something

27:47

about Long Beach proud was extra

27:50

sickening compared to what was happening. But

27:52

you know, I

27:54

totally just burped. You

27:56

didn't hear that. Is it okay? We'll

27:59

edit that out. out if you want. Or

28:01

make it louder maybe. Yeah. Like

28:03

purposeful. Ugh. But

28:06

what they did was, they

28:10

were moving dates, so Long Beach Pride has always

28:12

been in May, and then they were like, oh,

28:14

we're moving it to August. So like a couple

28:16

years ago it was in August and everyone was

28:18

like, this is disgusting, don't ever do this again.

28:20

So then they were like, actually we'll move it

28:22

to July. And then they

28:24

were like, maybe it needs to be back

28:26

in May. So that was kind of a

28:28

weird thing for people just finding that way

28:30

after the pandemic specifically. All

28:33

right, Long Beach Pride, we'll have to check it out.

28:35

Let's take a break and we'll be right back. We

28:54

are back and this is the moment,

28:57

Delta on our podcast where we

28:59

get political. And so we have

29:01

to sing the song to the

29:03

tune of Olivia Newton-John's hit

29:06

song, Physical, not really, but physical.

29:10

The Olivia Newton-John Physical. And it goes,

29:12

let's get political,

29:15

political. I

29:17

wanna get political. Let

29:20

me see your poli tie. Isn't

29:22

that nice? I like it. You

29:25

didn't wanna sing, Delta? Oh, I thought that was a

29:27

like rehearsal. To

29:29

run. Oh, see now

29:31

you're speaking my language. Then

29:35

do a suggestive movie. Do

29:39

you like going to restaurants? You

29:43

know what? When my family is in town

29:45

or when I have guests in town or

29:47

whatever, I look forward

29:50

to the Cheesecake Factory. I

29:53

love it. That menu is so extensive.

29:57

I avoid gluten. I've

29:59

been vegetarian. for like almost 20

30:01

years. So I'm annoying

30:03

when it comes to ordering at restaurants, but

30:06

Cheesecake Factory has so many options.

30:09

I love it. I mean, I

30:11

don't think it's annoying. I think at this point it's

30:13

annoying if people don't have those options set forth on

30:16

their menu. It depends on

30:18

where you go. Cause certain parts of the

30:20

world or certain parts of the country, it's

30:22

like this is just, there's just

30:24

not gonna, it's not in the cards. But

30:27

in LA, I mean, you can always find

30:30

something. This

30:32

is the moment where we get political on

30:34

the podcast. Okay. So I don't

30:36

know if you've been seeing any of this online. At

30:40

universities around the country, young people have

30:43

been setting up encampments in protest of

30:45

the war in Gaza. They

30:47

are protesting their university's connection to

30:49

larger powers that are funding and

30:51

supporting Israel's attack on the Palestinian

30:53

people and the movement continues to

30:55

grow. I

30:58

have been seeing this. Okay. So

31:01

this comes from the BBC. All

31:03

right. I'm gonna read this. Dozens

31:05

of college campuses across the US have

31:08

been taken over by students protesting against

31:10

the war in Gaza. More than a

31:12

thousand demonstrators have been arrested, including dozens

31:14

on Tuesday night at Columbia University in

31:16

New York City. Many universities

31:19

are struggling to deal with

31:21

encampments on college grounds just

31:23

days before graduation ceremonies. Students

31:25

have launched rallies, sit-ins, hunger

31:27

strikes, and most recently encampments

31:30

against the war. They're demanding

31:32

that their schools, many with

31:34

massive endowments, financially divest from

31:36

Israel. Divestment means

31:38

to sell off stock in Israeli

31:40

companies or to otherwise drop financial

31:42

ties. Student activists say

31:44

that companies doing business in Israel

31:47

or with Israeli organizations are complicit

31:49

in its ongoing war in Gaza,

31:51

as our college is investing in

31:54

those companies. University endowments fund everything

31:56

from research labs to scholarship funds,

31:58

mostly using return. for millions

32:00

and billions of dollars in investments.

32:03

Have you seen any of this online because I

32:05

know the social media is now

32:08

like downplaying anything dealing with

32:10

politics or like world issues.

32:13

Yeah I have seen quite

32:16

a bit of it probably not all of

32:18

it and probably being presented to me in

32:20

like very biased ways. Yeah you

32:25

know I feel like people

32:27

always when I was

32:29

growing up people would always sort

32:31

of trivialize this idea of like a

32:33

sit-in or a protest as

32:35

like oh that's just what wild

32:37

kids do in college you have

32:39

to expect it you know sewing

32:42

their wild oats and like learning

32:45

who they are and that's just how you're

32:48

gonna go hug a tree. I've been had

32:50

family members like some of my family members

32:53

try to say like oh oh where did you

32:55

get this from Trader Joe's what are you doing

32:57

hug in a tree and I'm like right

33:00

wow okay but this is really

33:02

the a time that

33:04

we never thought was gonna

33:06

come for many of us and like

33:08

a world we didn't know we were gonna

33:10

live in not even a world the country

33:12

that we live in I always

33:15

thought that there were going

33:17

to be those people that you know

33:19

you would hear well we agree to

33:21

disagree but the one thing we agree

33:23

on is our our right to find

33:26

a hill stand on that hill screen

33:28

with all of our chests about injustice

33:30

and we would all say we

33:33

want the same thing we might have a different path

33:35

to get there but we all want the same thing

33:37

we don't want the same thing at all and

33:41

it's so fucking frightening

33:43

that we're living in

33:46

a time and in a place that doesn't

33:48

encourage that I just saw something happening here

33:51

in LA I think I want to say

33:53

it was at one

33:55

of the one of the universities here in LA and

33:57

there was like they were just showing they were saying

33:59

these protest and the fighting

34:01

between the two sides was happening on the

34:03

campus for an hour before the police

34:05

even showed up. You

34:08

know, I've always, I've always had

34:12

more of a fear than a respect of the police.

34:14

I've always had. And

34:17

I have no problem saying that. And

34:19

it saddens me because I know a lot,

34:22

a lot of people

34:24

in law enforcement, very, very close.

34:27

And I just, it's,

34:31

you know, when people go say something about a

34:34

group that you're involved in, they go, but not you, not

34:37

you, it's the other people, but

34:39

not you. And

34:41

I want to, I can't keep saying that anymore.

34:44

I can't keep saying that because it is you and it

34:46

is me. And

34:49

it's, I just, I

34:53

don't know why this is, why we're

34:55

still having these terms like, well, the

34:57

war and, and, and, and

35:00

not, not understanding the

35:03

basic definition of a genocide. Yeah.

35:07

I mean, just like, we should

35:09

all be on the same side

35:11

of this. Like we should, you,

35:13

you can, you can say, uh,

35:15

God, I don't even know how to wrap my, my head

35:17

around this. It's just, I have been seeing a lot of

35:20

these things and I, and I, and I say to myself,

35:22

how are you involved? What are

35:24

you doing? Are you just resharing? Are

35:26

you saying enough? Are you saying too much? Are

35:28

you educated enough to even fucking be speaking about

35:30

this? But what if you don't think about it

35:32

because you have to say something and

35:35

that something is to be on the

35:37

side of people who are being absolutely

35:39

genocided, erased from history.

35:43

Yeah. Fuck. Yeah. And

35:46

I really, I, I applaud

35:49

all of the students who are out there,

35:51

uh, setting

35:53

up camp and saying, we're putting

35:55

our bodies, you know, we're putting

35:57

our bodies on the line here.

36:00

were really trying to draw

36:02

attention to this because if you turn

36:04

on the TV, I mean, which I

36:06

don't, I don't really

36:08

watch TV but

36:12

I know that my mom does, that I know

36:14

that my family does, and I know that a

36:16

lot of people in the country do. I feel

36:18

like if you turn on the TV, they're either

36:20

not talking about this or they're

36:23

talking about it in a way

36:25

that's like these students are making

36:27

it really unsafe for Jewish students,

36:30

and that's what this is about.

36:32

And it's like, that's

36:35

not at all what this is about and that's not

36:37

at all what is happening. And

36:39

so that aspect of it is really

36:41

scary as well because this

36:43

has to, I saw

36:45

a post that was really poignant and

36:48

the person was like, this

36:50

is more than just

36:53

about freedom in Gaza or

36:55

in a foreign country,

36:58

this is about freedom in our country as

37:00

well. It's about the

37:03

truth, it's about people saying

37:05

we're not, we don't

37:07

want this, we are the people,

37:10

so make it stop. And

37:12

that's how it should be and they

37:14

shouldn't be being taken down by police

37:16

or the military or the National Guard

37:18

or whatever. There

37:20

is a post that I thought

37:22

was from today and

37:25

it says, it's a newspaper and

37:28

it says, University calls in a

37:31

thousand police to end demonstration as

37:33

nearly 700 are arrested

37:35

and a hundred injured. Violent

37:38

solution follows failure of negotiations

37:40

and this is from April 30th

37:43

1968, the NYPD bust of Hamilton Hall protesters

37:49

at Columbia University. So this

37:52

is something that has

37:54

happened in the past and

37:56

it's happening again now in real time.

38:00

I mean, and honestly, like we see these

38:02

police actions or we see military and all

38:04

of these things happening. I think a lot

38:06

of people go, well, it's on the other

38:08

side of the country or other side of

38:10

the world and I don't understand it. And

38:12

I don't want to get involved because, you

38:14

know, I have Jewish friends and I have

38:16

Palestinian friends and they have these

38:18

conversations. It

38:20

won't be long. And

38:23

it's already happening when it's right here, when it's

38:26

right here, because it's going to be, and

38:28

again, maybe first world problems don't know, but

38:31

it's just going to be a point where people are

38:33

going to say, we can't

38:35

fucking afford to buy groceries

38:37

anymore. And we're not

38:39

joking about it anymore. We're being

38:41

very fucking serious now. We can't

38:44

make it. We're not making it.

38:46

We're not surviving. And then people are

38:48

going to go, oh, well, you should have just gone to school. You

38:50

should have just gone this. I just saw

38:52

this thing where people were talking about

38:55

how once upon a time people

38:57

would say, oh, you're not going to

38:59

afford your university. What do you mean

39:02

you're going to be a dental tech? What do

39:04

you mean? Don't you want a fine arts degree? And

39:06

if you think about it, people that are a

39:08

dental tech or people that are go to welding

39:11

school or all these things, their job is

39:13

immediately after they are certified. But

39:16

when you have a fine arts degree, as lovely

39:18

as that is, and as much as you could

39:21

tell me all the works of Tchaikovsky, I don't

39:23

know that you immediately get a degree where you

39:25

are immediately get a job. You're

39:27

not immediately getting a fucking job. You

39:30

have some you have some lovely cred and

39:32

you have so much to teach people, but

39:35

actually being able to feed yourself. So it's like

39:37

it's I feel like is it going to start

39:39

going that way where people are like, fuck school.

39:42

I'm not going to school anymore. Yeah,

39:44

I need to live. I

39:46

need to survive. Is

39:49

there going to be a civil war here?

39:51

Oh, my God, that would not surprise me.

39:53

We all talk about it. Like at what

39:55

point are people going to not be able

39:57

to handle it anymore? Yeah.

40:00

I don't know what's scary. Well,

40:03

why don't we take a break, and we'll

40:05

be right back. Oh,

40:21

I don't have that sticker. Do you have this

40:23

sticker? No. Riggle of

40:25

the thumb. No. Do

40:28

you have the card? I want those

40:30

stickers. No, I don't have

40:32

the postcard. Do you have a sealed

40:35

CD of Tommy Rose from

40:37

Palm Springs? Singing,

40:39

and it's called This Broad's Way, but

40:42

wait for the back. Oh.

40:46

This Broad's Way. Yes.

40:52

I was going to a drawer of shit, and

40:54

I was like, oh my god. The stuff that's

40:56

in here. Those stickers

40:58

are fierce. I'll bring

41:00

you these stickers, too. I put drag queen

41:02

stickers on my, like, I have my, like,

41:04

everything bag that I take with me that

41:06

has, you know, scissors and lip liner and

41:09

touch up and whatever, bobby pins,

41:11

whatever. But I've been putting

41:13

drag queen stickers on it. I love

41:15

that. I'll bring you some stickers. Oh,

41:18

yeah. And you like stickers? This is

41:20

the moment, Delta, where we go spelunking,

41:24

spelunking, deep inside the

41:26

DM. OK. So

41:29

sometimes we get, you know, writers

41:31

who write in and have things to

41:34

say. Now, do you have the outline?

41:36

Do you want to read one of these? Uh,

41:39

I don't know where the outline is, but I mean.

41:41

Do you want me to read it? Sure. I

41:43

can, I mean, I can read it. I just read

41:45

slow. It

41:48

makes our episode. You can't read, doll. Yes.

41:57

This comes from Susie. OK. Hello,

41:59

Alaska. Delta and Big Dipper. I'm

42:02

a huge fan of the podcast and all

42:04

of your work. I love the light and

42:06

fun you bring to the world. This evening

42:08

I just lost my best friend of 20

42:11

years. He is gay and somehow since COVID

42:13

he has become more and more racist and

42:15

transphobic. He is always making racist comments and

42:17

saying horrible things about anyone that isn't straight

42:20

or white. I'm constantly calling him out on

42:22

this but he acts like it's my problem

42:24

for being too easily offended. It came

42:26

to a head this evening. He was staying at my

42:29

apartment with me since he lives three hours away.

42:31

We were watching a documentary about a

42:33

trans woman who killed herself and he

42:35

was constantly referring to her as it.

42:38

I snapped and told him he can't

42:40

keep being a transphobic cunt or he

42:42

can be a transphobic

42:45

cunt or he can be friends with me but

42:48

not both. He proceeded to say a whole lot

42:50

of awful shit hitting all of my insecurities just

42:52

trying to hurt me as much as possible and

42:54

then left. I've been sitting here for a few

42:56

hours just crying on and off. I don't have

42:58

any other friends to talk to due to

43:00

losing my entire friendship group to either

43:02

COVID conspiracy bullshit or them moving to

43:04

another country. I guess my question is

43:06

have I done the right thing throwing

43:08

away all of my all my friendships

43:10

for my principles? I'm at

43:12

my 30s, a single lesbian living in a

43:14

small conservative town in New Zealand. I live

43:17

and work alone. I can't see any way

43:19

to make new friends easily and I'm just

43:21

so exhausted from everyone's bullshit. Why is everyone

43:23

so selfish and fucked in the head? Even

43:26

if you don't read this on the podcast, thanks

43:28

for giving me a safe-spaced event. The world is

43:30

just so awful now and your podcast is one

43:32

of the few rays of light. Much love, Susie.

43:35

Mmm. Sometimes

43:42

having principles

43:45

can be a lonely thing, Susie. And

43:48

I think

43:50

a lot of the

43:52

times that people become,

43:54

yeah, go Trump, is

43:56

because they want to feel part of the

43:58

in-crowd. And they want

44:01

to feel part of like

44:03

they want to feel like they belong on the

44:05

side of the bully. So

44:07

they, you know, so they

44:10

go to that side and they say stuff

44:12

like your friend was saying. But

44:15

there's a lot of people out here,

44:17

Susie, who don't

44:20

believe in, you know, being a transphobic

44:22

or a racist kind. So

44:25

you'll find them. Yeah.

44:28

You know, you mentioned the pandemic and

44:30

I feel like the pandemic was like

44:32

sort of this great equalizer where everyone

44:34

was like, oh, we all have to

44:36

answer to the same thing at the

44:38

exact same time, regardless of anything. We

44:42

have to move forward exactly in the

44:44

same way. And there

44:46

are people, I feel,

44:48

that left that time so confused,

44:50

conflicted, and they

44:53

reverted to what they've always known. And

44:55

just as you said, you know, sort of

44:57

siding with this oppressor in a way to

44:59

go, I'm part of something. In many ways

45:01

they go, well, there's more people

45:04

in this majority. So if I just

45:06

side with that, I'll be safe. I'll

45:08

be protected. I won't have a problem.

45:10

And that is not true.

45:13

As we know, that is not true. I

45:15

mean, many of the people that do this

45:17

think that in some way, if it's not

45:19

broke, don't fix it. You know, I can

45:22

always, I can always, you

45:24

know, maybe it's harsh to you, but I'm

45:26

telling you the harsh reality of it. And

45:29

that's just the way it is. And it's

45:31

bullshit. That's fucking bullshit. This

45:33

is not, this is not how we

45:35

progress through life. I

45:38

grew up watching Star Trek, you

45:40

know, and I would see, yeah,

45:42

you would watch the show where

45:44

these people, everybody looks so vastly

45:47

different and had

45:49

vastly different reasons

45:52

or ways, but their motive was

45:54

the same. We're blaring through the

45:56

fucking universe together to fucking solve.

46:00

to discover, to do

46:02

all these things. And if

46:04

we're supposed to be, that's what we're supposed to be

46:06

here as quote Americans,

46:09

none of that is happening. None

46:12

of that. You just showed us that article

46:15

from 1960, whatever, the

46:17

same things are happening. You

46:19

know, when you see women marching for something,

46:22

I saw this lady had a sign and

46:24

she was like, I thought that I had

46:26

finished marching for this in 1971. And

46:31

here I am, here I

46:33

am, an old lady, and I'm still doing

46:35

this for the girls that came after me.

46:38

It's like fucking weird, fucking gross.

46:40

You will find your tribe, you will find

46:42

your people, even if it's just one person.

46:44

And if it's not, start writing, write everything

46:47

down, write all of

46:49

these things that matter to you. And

46:51

I don't know, maybe find an internet group of

46:53

people who also are in

46:55

the middle of nowhere and need connection,

46:58

need people. Writing this letter was your

47:00

power already. That's

47:03

T. This

47:06

next message comes from Stephanie. Hello

47:09

dolls, Dippin Delta, I know she's

47:11

there. Long time, first time.

47:13

She wrote that. Before I get, what?

47:16

She wrote that, I didn't have that edge. Oh,

47:18

how funny. She just knew.

47:20

Oh my God, how funny. Before I get

47:22

to my question, I wanna start off by

47:24

expressing my love for y'all at mom for

47:26

making my week more bearable. I've been an

47:28

avid listener since the beginning, so much so

47:30

that I can predict an I love crystal

47:33

or an updo with impressive accuracy, if I

47:35

do say so myself. In fact, it's

47:37

gotten to the point where I'll instinctively

47:39

recite any of the soundboard sound bites

47:41

in real life whenever applicable on Ali's

47:44

name. In your recap of the

47:46

season 16 finale, Dr.

47:48

Orthodontica Belli points out that

47:50

Maya's rubber band change got

47:53

me thinking. As

47:55

someone who has had braces before and knows too

47:57

well how important it is to see the orthodontist

47:59

reggae. regularly, often every couple of weeks.

48:02

How would that work on drag race? Not

48:04

just in this instance, but in general.

48:07

I assume there are doctors on set

48:09

for emergencies and whatnot, but are the

48:11

girls ever allowed to see any specialists

48:13

if need be? With so

48:15

many seasons and so many girls, I think it's fair

48:17

to assume that at some point someone would have needed

48:19

to be treated by a specialty provider at some point.

48:21

No? Although I don't have

48:23

a drink for priority boarding, please accept this pick of

48:26

me, my friend and her

48:28

sister at Alaska's Drive and Drag Show

48:30

in Chicago a couple of years back.

48:33

The Chromatica inspired show is still one of

48:35

the best I've ever seen, even if it

48:37

wasn't a parking lot. Lots of love. Stephanie

48:39

and the Red wig. I

48:41

love that. Yeah,

48:43

so one of the queens on this

48:46

past season had braces. Okay. So she's

48:48

asking like, are queens allowed to like

48:50

go out and, you know, get

48:53

their braces tended

48:55

to every couple of weeks?

48:57

I don't know how that would work. I don't,

49:00

I don't have any, I mean,

49:02

yeah, like they mentioned that

49:04

there was like a medic, of course,

49:06

like anything that you shoot, there's going

49:08

to be somebody for small things. And

49:12

they even have like, if somebody has a cold,

49:14

even on like a craft services emergency and that

49:16

kind of stuff. The only thing

49:18

I can remember, I mean, from, from

49:22

when I was on Drag Race was, you know, they,

49:25

two girls went to the hospital

49:30

when they, they were, we were wearing

49:32

the Christmas outfits and

49:34

the girls were lip syncing and

49:36

the bulbs were breaking. So

49:38

they got cut up. They

49:40

got cut up a little bit. So they had to go and just

49:43

have those dressed, but it wasn't anything like life

49:45

threatening. It was just something that could be eventually,

49:48

if not treated, get like an infection or something,

49:50

but they were just minor cuts. That's

49:52

all I can think of. So

49:55

yeah, so I think that answers the question

49:57

because I think it is, I think

49:59

they do. make arrangements for, you

50:02

know, things. So I'm sure if

50:04

Maya needed to see an orthodontist,

50:06

you get a day off every,

50:09

you know, week or something, right?

50:11

So she

50:14

probably was able to do that. Do

50:16

you remember doing drag

50:18

shows and parking lots? Yeah,

50:21

during the pandemic for sure. Yeah. Yeah.

50:24

What a weird time. I,

50:27

you know what? I miss it actually. Cause we

50:29

were, remember when you came, Oh,

50:31

I fucking gave it was wonderful. Yeah. To the

50:33

executive suite when we were doing that shit. And

50:35

I will say, I think because people were being

50:38

finally released from being home, it was

50:40

very, very busy all the time because

50:43

then you would see like, it was kind of spaced out

50:45

in a, in the way that it needed to be. But

50:47

once, once everyone sort of,

50:50

you know, got their release from that and

50:53

we went back inside. I mean,

50:55

I feel like there's a drag show on every

50:57

corner. So now quite a bit

50:59

of local drag is suffering just

51:02

because it's not as well attended, especially if it's

51:04

a weekly event. If it's a weekly event with

51:06

sort of a cast. Hard. It's hard. I will

51:10

say for myself, like I, I cannot

51:12

think of, I can't

51:14

think of regulars that come weekly to any

51:17

of the shows that I do. There's, there

51:19

are no regulars. And when

51:21

I was coming up, like with

51:23

dream girls, there was reg you

51:25

Larsa. Yeah. That sat in the

51:27

same spot that drank the same thing that would

51:30

be out on the patio that would come out

51:32

the back alley. Like there was always at every

51:34

venue that doesn't exist anymore. At least

51:36

in my realm, maybe in other parts of the country,

51:38

other places, maybe it's a little different. No,

51:41

I think you're right. And I

51:43

think the culture of going out

51:46

is changing. I mean, it's like,

51:49

I think the culture of saying the

51:51

fuck in is really

51:53

taking over because anytime you

51:55

leave the house, it costs

51:57

money. the

52:00

gas in the car, the

52:03

parking lot, the drink

52:05

at the bar, the

52:07

kaka-daka. It all costs

52:09

money and when fucking a gallon

52:11

of milk caused whatever the fucking

52:13

caused now and you go to the

52:15

grocery store and you buy six things and you're like, I

52:19

think it's funny you say that because

52:21

I'm not really like, I'm

52:23

not, um, I'm not like sober and I'm,

52:25

but I'm also not a person who drinks

52:27

that much. So I'm not opposed to drinking

52:29

and I'm not, but I just

52:32

never do. I never think about it. I'm kind of

52:34

in and out at work and when I'm at work,

52:36

I feel like if I drink something and I start

52:38

to get fucking hot, then I don't want to be

52:40

sweaty and the other, but every time we go to

52:42

Olive Garden and we go a couple of times a

52:44

month, I look at the menu. I

52:46

look at their menu and I'm like, Oh, these drinks look

52:48

so pretty and I never think to look

52:51

at the price because I'm not going to order one and

52:53

it doesn't dawn on me. Yesterday I looked

52:55

at the price and I was like, these

52:57

drinks are only $7. Like

52:59

why are people not going to Olive Garden to

53:02

get fucked up? They're going to

53:04

the gay club and they're like, Oh my God, a

53:06

well drink with $13. Yes

53:08

for a well. And I'm like, those

53:10

are these are, these have flowers floating

53:13

in them. I

53:15

would rather spend this and sit at fucking

53:17

Olive Garden. I wouldn't even get drunk because

53:19

I'd be so full of breadsticks. I'd be

53:22

absorbing everything and free

53:24

and free. Yes.

53:27

Okay. I'm

53:29

going to get shitfaced at Olive Garden. We should

53:31

do that. We should do that. Let's

53:34

do that. I'm so

53:36

with endless salad and my favorite

53:39

soup. That's my favorite. Red

53:42

steaks. My favorite. So

53:46

speaking of the culture of going out

53:48

changing this bleeds into an

53:50

announcement that we have. So we

53:54

have been promoting a show on May 12th

53:56

in Los Angeles on Mother's Day. decided

54:00

to make a change. It

54:04

seems as though the

54:07

majority of the people who are interested in, because

54:09

we were doing an event around the movie, Don't

54:11

Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dad. Right.

54:14

It seems as though the majority of the people

54:16

interested in this movie perhaps don't live in Los

54:18

Angeles. So

54:20

we want to invite everyone in.

54:23

So we're changing it to,

54:25

do tell mom the babysitter is

54:27

alive and well, the live stream.

54:29

Okay. So same day and time,

54:32

Sunday, May 12th, 6pm Pacific,

54:34

but it'll be online. So, you know,

54:36

you can watch with your mom, you

54:39

can watch anywhere you can put

54:41

it on in the background while you're working

54:44

out or whatever. It will be a

54:46

live stream event and we'll watch the

54:48

movie. We can watch it in its

54:50

entirety because it's not like in a

54:52

live setting. So

54:55

this is actually, you know, better.

54:57

And we're going to pause it

54:59

periodically to talk about our favorite

55:02

movies and idiosyncrasies about this picture.

55:05

That's more opportunity for everyone. I

55:08

agree. So go to mompodcast.plus

55:10

to get your $5 ticket

55:12

to the live stream, honey, or

55:15

click the link in our bio on

55:17

Instagram to find it. And you'll receive

55:19

a special link to go live on

55:21

May 12th at 6pm Pacific. And

55:24

all of those of you who bought tickets

55:26

to the LA event, you should

55:28

have received a refund, gotten an email that

55:31

the show is being canceled. We really appreciate

55:33

your support and we thank you for buying

55:35

tickets, but the live stream is going to

55:37

include more people and it's a better fit

55:39

for this event. Girl, it was just girl.

55:41

55:46

the moment. Why not?

55:48

It was under a bad

55:50

sign. Yeah. There was a problem with
