Listen up folks: it's time to finish Ru Paul's Drag Race: All Stars 3 the RIGHT way - by going through every single Queen with The Opposition's Aaron Jackson and Josh Sharp! This is the only Drag Race recap that matters; every other Drag Race recap is trash and doesn't respect the craft. And therefore, Aaron and Josh are able to lay into the Queens as if no one is listening! Did Trixie really dese...

Are you ready for this? Matt & Bowen make the pilgrimage to the epicenter of culture, West Nyack NY, to interview a true living legend -- someone who has made substantial cultural and personal impacts on Matt & Bow. Just to give you an idea -- Matt was so excited that he was re-arranging the furniture in the hotel lobby before the interview. She is joined by the hilarious Rocco Stowe, who...

He is the original Conjuring Cat. He is peak Grizabella. He is…the most cultured guest EVER to grace the LC mic. Tyler Coates is here - and class is in session.  Tyler saw Bernadette Peters on Broadway more times than you did (listen and check and report back to me). Tyler saw Beauty And The Beast ON ICE as a child (and it was formative - can you say the same?). And if that wasn’t enough culture -...

Quick tip: You HAVE to be visual! Club Comic, Self-Taught Drummer, Repeat Guest, and STINKA Sam Taggart joins Matt & Bo in the new "work in progress" FDPN studio for an episode that will have you singing! No cultural stone goes UNTURNED: they talk Antoni from Queer Eye, Omorosa, Fish Women, Arepas, Clive Davis being an asshole, the aftermath of Jennifer Aniston's breakup (beautifully rendered...

Don’t murder me, I’ll be fine! It’s a special day when you're with Matt Bellasai. And, thankfully...we’re with Matt Bellasai. The icon is here and all he has to do is mouth the words “Desperate Housewives” in front of Matt & Bow to turn this episode into a rollicking ride. They talk Housewives, the TRAGEDY of missing a DH episode before there was DVR — as well as Matt quitting Facebook, fans b...

The Goddess, the Queen, the Empress, the True Blue Culturista, the Biggest Treat Of Them All, Queen of Kingdom Queef, Puss-tastic and Mega Madness, you can’t handle the bitch….it’s Annie Donley.  This episode is fully insane. It is catharsis. It is medicine. It is delicious. It will make you say, mmmmm…..fuck me sex god. You will hear tales of the Amazonian Penis Fish, you will hear of musical act...

She's an absolute icon and NOT Generation X! The hilarious Janeane Garofalo stops by the studio before Matt & Bowen depart for Orlando to weave a brilliant tapestry of her cultural upbringing and to discuss the insanity of American politics, the sweeping generalizations of social media, and the challenges we face now that the world's gone DIGITAL. It's a thoughtful, fun, and dare I say enlight...

Simply, one of the best episodes ever - written AND performed by artist, actor, singer, writer, director, Grammy-award winning Las Culturistas icon Nathan Lee Graham. Basically, all you need to know is that Nathan comes into the studio with a piece of paper that has SEVEN “I Don’t Think So, Honey's!” pre-prepared - that’s the level of craftsmanship we’re speaking about here.  For real: Nathan is o...

What is it like to meet Ru Paul? Jeff Hiller fills you in! And what is it like to audition for Sondheim? Jeff Hiller fills you in! And what it is like to meet Jeff Hiller? Jeff is a 80s sitcom savant who was in Shakespeare In The Park - that’s how it is! A god damn delight! AND he let’s us know who is allowed to do stand-up at his funeral (is it you? Listen and find out!)  ALSO: The Oscar noms are...

The air is thick with culture...can you feel it? That's because the physical embodiment of culture, the Cable Queen herself, Naomi Ekperigin, is in-studio with Matt & Bowen! And you KNOW they have news to discuss: Golden Globes? Oprah? The CONVERSATION about Oprah? Natalie Portman? Natalie Portman on Insta? Oscar Predictions? And of course, they get into the cornerstones of Naomi's cultural up...

His Mom's friend met Colin Quinn on a beach and told him that he did comedy. A Swedish woman once told him that he would do well in Europe sexually. He has a teen cousin who has a vest that was featured in Ryan Murphy's Scream Queens . And after a short hiatus from Lloyd Night...he quit Lloyd Night. Yes, the THREE time "Las Culturistas Icon Award Winner" is back to stake his claim as the greatest...

It's the last episode of 2017 and it's only fitting that Las Culturistas ends the year with a little twist! Matt has been whisked off to Los Angeles for 24 hrs, so in his stead, the Floridian Queen & host of Fresh Batch podcast, Michelle Collins, joins forces with Bowen to welcome a true Culturista to the pod, Eliot Glazer (New Girl, Broad City). And if you're thinking this episode WOULDN'T co...

Culturistas, I present to you the giggliest episode yet! Comedian and writer Mitra Jouhari joins Matt & Bowen for an episode that can only be described as an absolute “romp.” Aside from the usual platinum nuggets of culture (I.e. Octavia HAS the gravitas), Mitra brings magic to the forefront of the cultural discussion: telepathy, healing, bending rocks, etc. Plus, Matt, Bo, and Mitra remember...

Triple Threats? Yesterday's news, honey! Today the industry demands THREE-TOOL PLAYERS! And nobody utilizes her three tools like our guest, comedian Aparna Nancherla ( BoJack Horseman, Master Of None). Aparna, a se-ri-ous Culturista, brings the heat with her "defining culture": Sesame Street. So, yes Matt and Bo deep dive on the childhood classic - but that's just the tip of the iceberg: Bowen vic...

Let’s cut to the chase. This episode of Las Culturistas features 3 in-studio vocal performances from this week’s supremely talented special guest, Amanda Shechtman…and they will blow your goddamn mind. Her voice is insane. Like, truly insane. And to sweeten the pot, former LC guest and piano savant Henry Koperski is also in-studio to accompany her on the keys. And these performances aren’t just th...
