Episode 170: Drag Race Thailand Season 2 Episode 7 – Food Lovers

It's dinner and a show this week with the Top 6 whipping up delicious designs inspired by classic Thai cuisine. We also get a pretty extensive crash course in cooking from the dreamy Chef Fang, which sends us on a long tangent about desirability politics and sexual preferences. Angele Anang serves up an amazing green curry (and interesting makeup choices), Bandit breaks her yolk but not her safe streak, Smirala is a good egg, Vanda should have ordered out, Genie's an acquired taste, and while To...

Episode 169: Drag Race Thailand Season 2 Episode 6 – Power of Speech

Ironically, on the "power of speech" episode, we had a slight technical difficulty and Colin's mic crapped out 22 minutes in, but that didn't stop us from queening out on the Top 8's talk show circuit, Bandit's mature wisdom in the workroom, and Genie, Tormai and Vanda's powerful speeches on the runway. But of course, the biggest goop of the episode was the rigor morris called out at the 11th hour by Mocha. Pangina came painted to read this week and delivered the toughest love we've seen from he...

Episode 168: Drag Race Thailand Season 2 Episode 5 – Hollywood Inspirations

This week, we discuss the acting challenge on Drag Race Thailand Season 2 where the queens split up into teams and act in a horror soap opera called The Haunting Dolls. We discuss the standouts during the mini challenge, the rigor morris on the runway, and why Pangina has carved her own reality TV show character.

Episode 167: Drag Race Thailand Season 2 Episode 4 – Mother-Daughter

Drag Race Thailand has a makeover challenge and we're here for it, Mary. We get straight men asking queer questions, Pangina as stained glass windows to Art's Madonna, and many mother-of-the-bride concepts. We highlight our favorite moments in the work room with the special guest daughters and go crazy for a lip-sync song that has us writing letters. Enjoy, Mary!

Episode 166: Drag Race Thailand S2 E3 -Sang Thong – Ugly To Pretty

This week we get a recycled mini challenge, a Rigor Morris suspicious Maxi Challenge outcome (rare for DR Thailand), and Pagina Heals as Mariah Carey! On the runway, the queens have to serve two looks (again!) and we can't help but chant along with a past Pangina: don't be pretty, don't be pretty, don't be pretty, don't be pretty! The lip sync is a master class lead by (Queen's name redacted) and we were left fully gagged and fully in love. Patreon: www.patreon.com/alrightmary Email: alrightmary...

Hey Mary! Happy summer and happy pride. This week, we're beginning our release of the Drag Race Thailand Season 2 episode discussions. We gag over Art and Pan Pan, gush about Mocha Diva out of drag, and celebrate a runway look that all queers can see themselves in. A towel dress.

Episode 163: RuPaul’s Drag Race S11 E14 – The Odd Finale

In the wise words of CeCe Peniston, finally! We’ve reach the end of Season 11 (and 6 months of nonstop Drag Race)! The final four bring their best reveals to this showcase showdown, from Brooke’s SHOE reveal to Yvie’s Free Britney bloomers, while Vanjie gets an entire segment to herself and Nina reclaims her “Meh.” Ultimately, the odds are in Yvie’s favor, and we’re so proud to see her freak frag (sic) fly as Current Fucking Raging!

Episode 162: RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 11 – Reunion

To be honest, this episode is more about the island of Curacao than it is about the Season 11 reunion. We were both a bit underwhelmed by the highly-produced reunion episode, so instead of hating on it for an hour and a half, we plucked out the highlights, and diverted onto other topics like the gay wedding Johnny’s attending (in Curacao), the seemingly arduous task of DJ’ing, meeting Mary’s, and sleeping on Muriel’s Wedding as a Matreon movie.

Episode 161: Drag Race S11 Ep 12 – Queens Everywhere

After a season full of surprises (lest we forget last week's tragic hero elimination of Nina West), this week's final challenge felt like it was covering familiar territory. A'keria's choreography journey, Brooke's musical risks and Silky's black panties showing all feel like stories we've seen before. Yvie is the exception, rebounding from a string of low performances to the top of the heap, while Vanjie proves she is the queen of making exits. Patreon: www.patreon.com/alrightmary Email: alrigh...

Episode 160: RuPaul’s Drag Race S11 E11 – Go Big, Be Kind, Fucking Go West

Season 11’s narrative goes south this week with the elimination of Nina West—especially considering that it was Silky’s less than smooth lip sync that earned her the shantay. (And of course: “Meh.”) While we’re heartbroken, we’re celebrating the pride of season 11 this week with some of our favorite Nina moments. And also questioning the (admittedly fascinating) Silky narrative, the perpetual (and slightly uninspiring) rise of Brooke Lynn Hytes, and the vandalism of Vanjie with this week’s win. ...

Episode 159: RuPaul’s Drag Race S11 E10 – Dragracadabra

We feel a bit sawed in half about this week’s magic act, Mary! Nina pulls a hell of a rabbit out of her hat with her triumphant stage performance, but the disappearing act the judges pull on Shuga Cain is a real sleight of hand. Silky seems to have no new tricks up her sleeve, Yvie’s dark arts are losing their luster, Brooke Lynn’s mom made our lashes vanish with an emotional video message, A’keria is spellbinding despite a flighty interpretation of the runway theme and Vanjie conjures up one mo...

Episode 158: RuPaul’s Drag Race S11 E9 – L.A.D.P.

Rescue 911! Somebody save this episode! Okay, so this week’s improv challenge was no crime against humanity—A’keria and Brooke are certainly innocent!—but in the lineup of Season 11’s episodes, this one is certainly suspect. Silky is practically bugging the judges to serve time in the Bottom 2, Nina and Shuga struggle with being bystanders in their scenes, Yvie is a star witness to A’keria’s winning turn and someone needed to call in Animal Control on Plastique and Vanjie. The cat fight turns in...

Episode 157: RuPaul’s Drag Race S11 E8 – Snatch Game At Sea

Ahoy, Mary's! This season's Snatch Game is hitting the high seas (because it's a great way to tie in their sponsor?). Nina West does a first class job of teaching the children about both Harvey Fierstein AND Joanne Worley, but Silky sets a course for victory with TS Madison (or is that Silky in a 22 inch wig)? It's queen overboard for Brooke's Celine and Vanjie's "cash me outside" meme of the moment, but Yvie's wishy-washy Whoopi keeps us from getting the inevitable Branjie lip sync just yet. Al...

Episode 156: RuPaul’s Drag Race S11 E7 – From Farm To Runway

Plants on the runway! This week’s design challenge has the queens feeling their oats, wheats, grains, thins and oatmeal—and a whole array of other food groups—to create high fiber fashion on the runway! Plastique gets three mommies, Yvie gets fed up, Shuga gets fed, RaJah isn’t afraid to bark, Silky isn’t as smooth as she thinks, A’keria is your aunt who plays football, Nina West is Snoopy, Vanjie sounds off in Untucked and Brooke wastes no time showing personality with those reaction shots.

Episode 155: RuPaul’s Drag Race S11 Ep6 – Draglympics

Go for the gold, Mary! The olympics of drag are doing draglympics complete with fanography (fan’s back!), voguing (I’m so into voguing right now), and some light shablams every now and then. Yvie’s honesty is put to the test while Vanjie talks through her tears in the work room. Nina West brings us operatic drag while Scarlet cuts a rug and a dress to try to stay in the competition for one more week. While Akeria finally takes home the gold, Rajah qualifies through one more last dance despite he...

Episode 154: RuPaul’s Drag Race S11 E5 – Monster Ball

RuPaul’s throwing a monster mash this week for this season’s ball challenge. Most of these queens tend to serve more beauty than beast—and we’re not sure how half of them are trick-or-treating in those outfits—so it’s a runway big on ooky, but not quite spooky (besides Scarlet, who is somehow just safe this week). Ariel, like most mermaids, isn’t great on her feet, but was swimming away with that lip sync until that flip of the fin, and Brooke Lynn is, believe it or not, the only mummy on pointe...

Episode 153: RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 11 – Trump the Rusical

This week, there is collusion among the queens for a lip sync musical extravaganza inspired by both Grease and the grease fire that is current events. Nina West continues to win the popular vote, Ariel struggles in the primaries, and Brooke and Vanjie might be rigging each other's polls. The Divine Miss Minj makes an appropriately ginger cameo, Silky snags a win that could be considered fake news, and RaJah air guitars no less than three times in the lip sync but still gets the electoral vote fr...

Episode 152: RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 11 – Diva Worship

Praise be, Mary! The queens are ministers of the good word of musical divas Mariah Carey and Britney Spears, but only one group can ascend to the heavenly safety of the Untucked lounge. Nina West, on the third challenge, has risen, and Vanjie is making the most of her second coming. But a vengeful Ru casts a plague of lip syncs on half the queens, giving Honey a hell of a time for falling from grace--I mean, the stage.
