Drag Race UK S4 E9 - Comedy Queens 36:50

1+ y ago36:50

36:50

A live chaotic episode see in as we did it in person in Sam Doohler’s bed post-wine. It’s the penultimate episode of Drag Race UK season four - and perhaps ours for a while - and the queens are roasting, though not very well for the most part. Black Pepper, Pixie and Cheddar make for some of the most uncomfortable roasts the show has ever seen but …

Drag Race UK S4 E8 - The Squirrel Games 57:01

1+ y ago57:01

57:01

Thanks for all your messages last week about our hiatus / possible demise, we’re working on it, rest assured! But in the meantime, we’re doing what we do best, slagging off Drag Race, including Ru’s return from covid given by Naomi Campbell, a terrible parody of Squid Games and Big Brother, a ruff runway - especially for Pixie Polite, while also ra…

Drag Race UK S4 E7 - Makeover Challenge 51:41

1+ y ago51:41

51:41

I’m going to post my announcement / speech / monologue here: “I’m afraid, and this is NOT a joke, that we’re going to do what I hoped we would never have to do. And announce that the United Queendom gang are taking a hiatus. And I hi-hate us for doing this. But let me explain. It’s been three years now of doing this, and it’s been amazing. And we c…

Drag Race UK S4 E6 - Snatch Game - UK Season 4 39:43

1+ y ago39:43

39:43

It’s Snatch Game time! And surprise surprise, it’s shit. Cilla Cack, Pete Burnt Out, Lame Shirley Bassey and RuPaul giving terrible advice. And Mel B’s drunk guest appearance with a Spice Girls Stop lip sync that needed to stop. A poor ep, for sure, but ours is still good so that’s all that matters really.Sponsored by Fat Pigeon Arthttps://fatpigeo…

Drag Race UK S4 E5 - Lairy Poppins: The Rusical 50:33

2y ago50:33

50:33

It’s the Rusical! And this week we get a take on Mary Poppins and a fan runway of west end shows, both of which Danny Beard destroys. We also talk Liz Truss’ shock elimination, Sam’s bday, Hacks the TV show and further updates about the Guy Onions saga. Enjoy!Sponsored by Fat Pigeon Arthttps://fatpigeonart.uk/https://www.instagram.com/fatpigeonart/…

Drag Race UK S4 E4 - Catty Man 50:15

2y ago50:15

50:15

Well this might be the craziest episode of the podcast we’ve ever done. I’m afraid it descends quite quickly into madness then only goes further off the rails, as we discuss politics, cats in suitcases and onions before meltdowns ensure. Definitely a keeper.Sponsored by Fat Pigeon Arthttps://fatpigeonart.uk/https://www.instagram.com/fatpigeonart/?h…

Drag Race UK S4 E3 - Naff-ta Awards 43:56

2y ago43:56

43:56

The Naftas are suitably naff, as the judges go rogue, creating mini challenge awards to crush confidence and judging bizarrely. But we get some good looks, thank you Cheddar, and some chat about our favourite subject, sex with straight men. We even get to discuss famous child murdered briefly, what more could you want?Sponsored by Fat Pigeon Arthtt…

Drag Race UK S4 E2 - Yass-tonbury Festival 1:07:10

2y ago1:07:10

1:07:10

It’s Yasssssstonbury - and the queens have to rock out with their cocks… well, tucked, as usual. Fucker Twigs is a guest judge, giving as much life as Starlet does in her performance, and Cathy Dennis channels queen of mean to help them with their songwriting - which they clearly need a LOT of help with. We see SIX badges given out (I say five in t…

Drag Race Down Under S2 E7 & Finale! 25:55

2y ago25:55

25:55

Due to the death of the Queen (Liz,) these episodes were delayed in their release on BBC iPlayer in the UK, so apologies to international listeners who’ve had to wait for them. As a result, when they were finally released, we’ve summarised the penultimate makeover episode and the finale Denali in one recap, but still managed to squeeze in plenty of…

Drag Race UK S4 E1 - ST4RT Your Engines 1:13:29

2y ago1:13:29

1:13:29

It’s baaaaaack! In an episode dedicated to the late Chery Valentine, we celebrate the return of Drag Race UK, (quite the palette cleanser after Down Under…) and it’s already off to a better start than season three of UK. Black Pepper snatches a win, Cheddar Gorgeous is instantly iconic, Dame Joanna Lumley makes an absolutely fabulous cameo, and we …

Drag Race UK S4 - Meet The Queens 47:23

2y ago47:23

47:23

We discuss the passing of her majesty the Queen Elizabeth II, as we know everyone has been on the edge of their seat waiting for our hot take on it. And then we move onto some living queens, the new cast of Drag Race UK season four, including such titans as Cheddar Gorgeous and Danny Beard. Who will snatch the crown? Well, besides Charles, obvs… (o…

Drag Race Down Under S2 E6 - Hometown Hunnies 52:25

2y ago52:25

52:25

This week we get one of the craziest lip syncs of all time as Beverly Kills goes head to head - and leg to leg, knee to knee, back to back - with rival Queen Kong, and that stage takes more of a pounding than Sam at Mardis Gras. But before that we have to sit through the queens attempting to endorse their hometowns, which is equally painful.Sponsor…

Drag Race Down Under S2 E5 - Bosom Buddies 47:52

2y ago47:52

47:52

This week we’re treated to the worst reading challenge of all time - burn this library down - and the most pointless drama of all time, as well as a pretty shitty runway to boot. However, on a positive note, Bosom Buddies pops off, and we also sink our teeth into some Canada, Secret Celebrity Drag Race, and even Drag Race Philippines chat - as well…

Drag Race Down Under S2 E4 - Snatch Game 56:07

2y ago56:07

56:07

Can season two’s Snatch Game improve upon the shit show that was season one’s? Well, no. Apparently, Snatch Game just isn’t their strength. But we get a decent Dame Edna, a good Liza (again,) and a bunch of crap to bitch about, as well as a few more Minnie Cooper work room dramas. We also discuss the recent deaths of Anne Heche and Darius (RIP) and…

Drag Race Down Under S2 E3 - Bottomless Brunch 43:53

2y ago43:53

43:53

It’s drag brunch! And nothing makes you quite in the mood for brunch like a drag queen with an injected eye, eh? This week UraGuy has a Poorly Eye, we learn the true meaning of SABO, and see Minnie’s pensioner nips. We also have a good old rant about Olly Alexander and treat you do a bit of off the cuff opinions on Canada’s Drag Race though we won’…

Drag Race Down Under S2 E2 - Cagey Queens 44:37

2y ago44:37

44:37

The queens do their first acting challenge in Caged Queens, a prison drama… and they all should be locked up after this. It was Prisoner Cell Block H for Horrible, but we did get some entertaining moments with Minnie’s dyslexia and apologies / demands for apologies, and some old beef from back in the day resurfacing (sounds like my trip to Toby Car…

Drag Race Down Under S2 E1 - Grand Opening 49:18

2y ago49:18

49:18

Down Under is baaaack! Crack open the chicken goooooouujoooooons. Has the budget improved? No. Have the challenges improved? No. Does it look like RuPaul is in the same room as the queens now? No. But has Ru’s makeup got worse? YES! We’ve got age debates, shitty outfits and lots of offensive Aussie accents to kick things off for season twoooooo.Spo…

All Stars S7 E12 - Finale - Lip Sync LaLaPaRuza Smackdown 52:48

2y ago52:48

52:48

Win-kx Monsoon! She did it! In a weird awkward production-assisted way admittedly, but Jinkx Monsoon is the queen of all queens after a string of very controversial lip syncs. Thanks for joining us for All Stars 7, it’s been a hell of a ride and I’m proud we were able to offer up all the negativity that the show was sorely missing. Join us for the …

All Stars S7 E11 - Drag Race Gives Back Variety Extravaganza 55:08

2y ago55:08

55:08

Wow what a rollercoaster. Shea leapfrogs everyone else by winning three legendary legend stars in the variety performance. Was it riggamorris? We investigate! And by investigate I mean speculate with no evidence. We also rank all of the queens variety performances, which is essentially 35 more lip syncs to terrible original songs, but do get some l…

All Stars S7 E10 - The Kennedy Davenport Center Honors Hall of Shade 47:31

2y ago47:31

47:31

It’s the roast! And we love it! Jinkx gives another master class, Raja gets another robbing, Trinity clearly had a bit of help and Jadia clearly needed a bit of help. Sam Dowler had his classic joke plagiarised by The Viv, and we even manage to discuss politics, curry and appropriate terms for gay men. A hilarious ep if we do say so ourselves!Spons…

All Stars S7 E9 - Dance Like Drag Queen 31:00

2y ago31:00

31:00

This week the queens have to make social media videos that would go viral. So naturally we get deep throating peanut butter sandwiches because WHY WOULDN’T WE? Dear Evan Hansen’s Ben Platt brings some much needed smugness to the panel and we get our first ever spoken word lip sync for your life as well as the reveal that the runway is reveals upon …

All Stars S7 E8 - Santa's School for Girls 40:37

2y ago40:37

40:37

A Christmas episode? In July? That’s fucked up. Almost as fucked up as the script on this acting challenge. And almost as fucked up as the knitwear choices on the runway. Not the greatest episode this season. That’s why it was a bit late, we had to process the issues. Apologies! We’ll have an early one for you sooooon!email edward.m.dyson@googlemai…

All Stars S7 E7 - Legendary Legend Looks 37:02

2y ago37:02

37:02

Another design challenge, and this week the theme is kissing Ru’s arse. Which is ironic as in the lip sync we get our first ever on stage rimming. Finally! Also Jaida pulls ahead with the legendary legend stars and the rivalry between Jinkx and Viv is heating up. Sorry this episode was a bit late because of Glastonbury, and for the resulting voice,…

We’re early girly! We’re going back to the year 2000, where double denim was acceptable and if you’d said Instagram people would think you were ordering a bag of brown. Y2K hun! And it’s the girl band challenge, as well as a night of a thousand Dolly Partons. Could it be any gayer? Well, yes The Vivienne puts a plunger up her arse. And most shockin…

All Stars S7 E5 - Draguation Speeches 53:46

2y ago53:46

53:46

The queens give graduation speeches, and deliver another iconic episode. Jinkx ‘I got hit by a fucking car’, Raja’s cult leaked shtick, and drink Viv all leave an impression, as does Ru’s controversial work room outfit, and revelation that the star system just got even more complicated. No wonder the queens’ strategies are falling apart. Thanks for…

Fairytale Justice is such a treat it gets the first 10/10 of All Stars 7 from us (despite the fact some people coughs Ed have been trying to give every ep 10/10.) and speaking of coughing, apologies that today’s sounds like it’s from a covid ward but the hosts have had a heavy week.

It’s the BALL! And Raja delivers one of the most gagworthy ball looks ever. But sadly still doesn’t win. But there’s many other gags. Jinks and Monet cobbling together half decent looks. Trinity being nice! The Vivienne winning cash! We also discuss THAT boot - or double boot - by Violet. And Gia Gunn’s Drag Con comments.email edward.m.dyson@google…

Is it the best Snatch Game ever? Did Jinkx’ Judy just raise the bar? Was Runour has it a terrible lip sync song? Is the plunger about to cause drama? We answer all the pressing questions.
