Well it's the snatch game. Again. Will it ever be fun again? Survey says... Maybe! But at least we have fun talking about it and talking about it along with a hair-raising and nail-biting exciting runway! Also, wait, oh lord, it's our 100th episode! Come celebrate with us and download now!!!This Toxic Fandom tarafından oluşturuldu

Oh dear, did a wet ball drop? Sorry, that joke was disgusting, but you know what's not disgusting? 36 sickening looks based on the 70% of the earth we can't live in! The girls of season 17 are tasked with making outfits out of sea trash, while also showing off a bathing beauty look AND a look inspired by marine life! And not a mermaid to be seen. T…

Because we never learn from our mistakes, we're doing RUPAUL'S DRAG RACE LIVE! But not really, because that would be gonzo. Yes it's the return of everyone's one-take-sketch-comedy show and we have notes upon notes to share before we get tickled pink on the runway! As the girls of RuPaul's Drag Race Season 17 argue and fight over what's "good drag,…

It's a new day, and after the first elimination, the girls of RuPaul's Drag Race season 17 are in their feelings, but so are the bois as they talk about Drag Race Alumni's OnlyFans, the rise and fall of J-O-E and don't forget the ELLA, and how we've already seen several girls pull ahead despite only having two real competitive episodes! Seriously, …

This episode we bid farewell to season 5 of Canada! We get tea from a listener, Pope's hot take from the bathroom (He was sick and couldn't make it), crown a winner, hear who Joe wanted to get the crown, and celebrate David's Birthday. Oh, David also annoys Joe with how much he wants to just talk about his love Orville Peck…

Fun fact, Steven misread this title as "menopause" and was very confused. Anyway! It's a new day in the Werk Room as the girls are given money honey and then asked to make outfits based on everyone's least favorite board game that we all have a copy of anyway, Monopoly! Will Steven keep the boardgamery in his pants? Will the girls serve the looks o…

The top 5 girls are brought together to... Be interviewed by Brad Goreski? It's a weird one, folks, but it's Canada's Drag Race and we're almost at the finish line! We talk about Wicked, Munchkins, Canadians, Anita Bryant finally doing something good with her life by dying, and how if you squint really hard in some parts of the podcast you might se…

We're back to find out who wins, who lipsync's against Acacia, and who goes home. We also answer questions like what does rollerskating lead to? Is standup a good talent? and what is a Badonk-a-dunk twist? All this and more! Sadly due to the ongoing fires in LA, Pope was not able to join us this episode. He will be back for Canada on Thursday!…

Oh, I see, you think this has nothing to do with you. You download your favorite podcast about the latest episode of RuPaul's Drag Race because you think you're too good for the international seasons, but what you don't know is that that episode is not just well produced, it's not just funny, it's taken from one of the greatest challenges ever prod…

IT'S THE SEASON PREMIERE! I REPEAT: IT'S THE SEASON PREMIERE! Join Steven, Joe, and David as they explore the season premiere of RuPaul's Drag Race season 17, The Squirrel Games! Fourteen new girls join the fray and enter the gauntlet as the hit reality TV show returns with the return of the controversial Rate A Queen and a jaw-dropping talent show…

The Snatch Game this week was so bad that it made Joe catch the flu bug! But seriously, people, wash your hands and get your flu shots, you morons. Anyway! David and Steven are left to summarize the Snatch Game and then be teleported to Mars by the intergalactic popstar runway! With Joe not there to moderate, let's ramble and talk about David Lette…

Oh. My. God. Becky, look at her drag race podcast! It's just, like, so... Big. This week on This Toxic Fandom, we gave up on the new millennium and went back to the halcyon days of slap bracelets, beanie babies, roller blades, and making way too many hand gestures. That's right kids, we're totally bugging and going back to the 90s! The girls of Can…

We want to see some H&M on this runway for the first time! For this season's first design challenge, the girls will have to make fashions that look off the rack, which Steven thinks is a great idea because he's WHAT? Insane. The girls are also tasked with presenting a slow-motion outfit to varying degrees of success and somehow, Squirrel Girl from …

Steven is back back back back again with Joe and David after his hiatus and the bois are reunited and better than ever! The three of them dive into the world of Drag Race Canada, where they get into the Tim Horton Hears a Who of it all as the top ten girls of Canada's Drag Race Season 5 compete in a smackdown lip synch for glory, honor, fame, and t…

Well chickens, we've made it to the end of another season! This week we talk about who was crowned, the final challenge, some tic-tac lunches, and whether or not we agree with the crowned queen (spoiler alert: it's nuanced). Graba cuppa tea and enjoy this finale before we officially head true north and strong to Drag Race Canada.…

This week the queens are getting in a tiny car cause they're heading to a Roast dressed as clowns. Which queens will give you the tears of a clown and which will have you questioning your sexual attractions to Bozo? Plus being the semi finals, we now know our top 4! Want to know who Joe and David are supporting? Listen to find out!…

This week on Drag Race UK it's the makeover challenge! The contestants need to make over members of their family and work with what they almost all already have... Family resemblance. We laugh, we cry (no really, we talk about how we cried, it's an emotional one), we both wish Chara Tea's mum was ours. So grab your fave (or the one you'd most likel…

Oh what a beautiful mornin! It's time for a Rusical! This week the queens get to star in a brand new Rusical as some of the UKs most influential pop stars on a Top of the Pops parody! Joe and David talk about whether they have faith in Kyran getting another win and if Actavia can spice up her life or not. Regardless, much like the character Marmala…

We are halfway through the season and finally at the snatch game! This week, the Queen’s have to start the episode by reading the house down boots yassss God… A.k.a. the reading challenge, followed by the snatch game! Is RuPaul being shady by having them do both of these in one Episode let us know in a five star rating in review on Apple podcasts. …

It's a Halloween treat as we finally finish Global All Stars! Yaaay! No one is satisfied and everyone wants to go home! We talk fashion, we talk lewks, we talk Wicked (because we have a problem), we talk about THE BORE WORMS and make references that Joe doesn't get, and we finally put this season to bed. Here's hoping that if we get GAS again, it'l…

David is in London! Joe is in LA! and Pope... will be on the finale of GAS. This week the Queens have to pull out their best anecdotal stories because they're guests on the Graham Norton show! Well, the version that fits on the MainStage. Joe and David tell their own stories, talk about who they'd like to interview, as well as which queens bared th…

While Joe's away, the gays will play as David and Steven discuss a lip-synch smackdown for a consolation prize! All the queens return (again?!) to perform for a $50,000 prize, and each girl has their own reason for fighting it out besides just kinda deserving a consolation prize for being on this season. Meanwhile, David and Steven discuss theatre …

This week the queens get into two spooky girl groups and have to write their own verses and choreograph to the song "Dead or Alive". In a twist at the end, the girls are actually judged individually instead of as teams shaking up the competition. Which group embodies Scary Spice rather than Spoopy Spice? Was one team All Saints while the other was …

HOW HAVE WE HAD TEN WEEKS OF THIS!? The girls are asked to make commercials advertising their home country (or, y'know, where RuPaul THINKS their country of origin is) and then we have weird commercials for Star Trek and Canva! What a world! Meanwhile Steven is back from his break and we're gonna see how many times we can say the not-nice-word-for-…

We're just a podcast sitting in your up next queue asking you to listen to us. It's an acting challenge this week, and the queens are asked to dig deep into their diaries to see if acting actually is in their wheelhouse. They spoof some of the best British (and a few American) Romcoms and on the runway see if they can spin the judges right round wi…

Steven continues to be MIA and now he’s missing the first good episode in a minute! Well that’s fine as David and Joe dive into the obligatory makeover challenge, this time with the remaining girls giving the eliminated queens new looks and new names for some reason! Nehelina finally gets her roses, but will that be enough to stop the reign of the …

This week the queens have to work in teams to create a cohesive collection to present on the runway. Their materials? Things mama Ru has Marie Condoed from different rooms in her house! Did you know Rupaul has a disco room!? You do if you watched her AD video... Garments are made, queens are thrown under buses, and the Drag Race franchise proves on…

Much like Sabrina Carpenter, and how one of these podcasters takes their espresso, this episode is Short n Sweet. Do you have a lot to say about Global All Stars? That's what we thought. Find out who we thought was giving us a real buzz this episode, how we take our coffee, and why we're crying over spilled greek yogurt (they can't all be coffee jo…

Cheerio and welcome back to Drag Race UK!! In this season premiere we discuss the new queens, their talents, and figure out which queen truly shows us if life really is a Cabaret. Bliebe, reste, stay and listen to us talk about this brand new season! (Please note due to technical difficulties, this episode came out strangely in the audio quality de…

In the latest episode of This Toxic Fandom, Steven cashes in his doctor's note to be excused from this season and leaves David and Joe to talk about RuPaul's Global All Stars Snatch Game of Love. The roughest challenge on a season that's aggressively rough? What could go wrong? What about cultural insensitivity and King Kong in the year of our lord…

And to think, this is the first time Steven is sober in three episodes! David makes their triumphant return as they come in to celebrate everyone's second favorite kind of cock, cocktails! Okay, that joke might've been too blue, sorry. But the bois talk about cocktail dresses, the mysteries around the suitcases the queens brought, and more! Tune in…

Woe be upon us as we continue to crawl our ways out of the hot, sunny, blistering heat of Los Angeles and try to bring you entertainment from a boulder of unpleasantness known as RuPaul's GAS! I'm sorry, I meant Global All Stars. This week the girls are given hilarious (questionable) scripts that are parodies of classic films and also sequels to Ba…

The inmates are running the asylum as David takes a break (because he HAD A FREAKIN' WEDDING AND IS TIRED DAMMIT) so Steven and Joe are left to their own devices, but sadly after a computer malfunction they had to get together after some drinking and re-record this episode! Oh no, it's very silly!!! While the bois slur their way through the latest …

The top four of Canada Vs The World get their portraits done, recap this palette cleanser of a season, and dive into a Lip Sync for the Crown where it could be anyone's game! But it belongs to Lemon, let's not be silly, here. The bois meanwhile dive into how much fun this season was and how great it is when you have a cast with great chemistry and …

For some reason that can only be chalked up to poor planning and/or intentional villainy, they decide to do a ball in episode two with THIRTY SOMETHING LOOKS. Glad to know poorly planning international trips isn't just a me problem! The girls are given a James Bond-inspired challenge where they have to make super spies and their octopussy is on fir…

Leave it to the Canadians to look at two of the hardest challenges that queens do every season and go "Hey, what if we combined the two?" While we experience some technical difficulties, the bois go into what makes a good and a bad choice, what is so damn funny about saying Cheryl like she bit your finger in an aughts viral video, and why Joe is wr…

What a title, huh folks? While we try to figure out how to make our new profile picture look good (turns out two unathletic Jews and a gym bunny lead to some interesting olympic-themed photographs) let's meet our very first GLOBAL ALL STARS! From all around the world, from the Philipines to Belgium to America, drag queens have congregated under the…

Let's get this roast a-cookin'! The producers up in Canada prove that they're smarter than the average bear (they have bears in Canada, right?) by combining the reading mini-challenge with the roast challenge! As the girls pair off to read each other the house-down-boots-tongue-pop-yes-gawd, the bois gush about this amuse bouche of a season as it c…

It's a new day on the pod and we're having a ball! ...Literally. This week the queens have to take on the future in what we're lovingly calling the AI Ball. I was going use AI to write this summery but as a writer I couldn't bring myself to. Can all of these bottom ball girls find a top? Is Feircealicious a petulant child? Who gets a Rudemption? An…

We're back this week to discuss Canada Vs The World Season Two Episode! Find out if anyone is or found the Hole, while we still ponder why Cheryl lost hers. Also, which reality TV archetype are you? We're itching to know.This Toxic Fandom tarafından oluşturuldu

Well, we did it, Joe! We finished the season of... Well, not a whole lot. We've probably seen worse, but not by much. How will it end? With a bang or a whimper? Will the judging make sense? Will Steven try desperately to remain positive despite having brain problems? Will David talk about The Fabulous Four, now in theaters, go see it? Will Joe give…

It's a smack-down, drag-out fight for the finish as the second round of girls enters Canada Vs. The Wor-- Well, it's really more of Canada Vs. The Commonwealth if you only have one girl from a season that isn't from an English-speaking country, innit? After slogging through All Stars 9 the bois are back and ready to watch girls from France, the UK,…

UGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH WHO THOUGHT IT WAS A GOOD IDEA TO BREAK THE FINALE INTO TWO PARTS DO THEY NOT THINK PEOPLE HAVE LIVES?! The bois are on the struggle bus and it's careening towards a cliff as the girls of All Stars 9 do the world's longest makeover mini-challenge of all time and then faff about forever. Tic Tacs are eaten, sleep is no…

The bois are here, they're queer, and they're gonna watch some drag queens lip sync for a badge! As the season begins to wind down we watch as the girls of All Stars 9 dip, trip, dive, duck, and dodge through a lip sync smorgasbord of (kinda alleged) fan favorite numbers! It's hard to be invested but by golly they give it their all. Or something li…

With Steven away, it's up to Joe (who has never seen a movie) and David (who doesn't like scary movies unless there are lesbian undertones) to watch a Rusical about scary movies! Prepare to scream, queens! Meanwhile, the queens of AS9 get spooky in all-monster, all-Santanic, all excellent musical that is actually legitimately good? Like, what?! Why…

In this fashion-forward episode of This Toxic Fandom, the bois get really into the history of Moschino (and David's personal history with Jeremy Scott), talk about some great runways, and try to keep morale up as we dig into the darkest part of the RuPaul's Drag Race lore: RuPaul's music career. Nah, we're mostly joking - The girls make outfits bas…

The bois huddle together in the nonbinary bathroom (aka all of them you weirdos) and talk about the latest acting challenge from RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars while also ignoring the horrible fact that this is the second bathroom episode in as many seasons. Once is an accident, twice is a hobby, y'know? Anyway they talk about Showgirls, acting, putt…

It's your patriotic duty to download this episode as the bois get into the National Drag Convention Roast, a roast themed around the idea of "hey what if we did a roast but randomly put up some stuff so we can say it's about getting people to vote." What a concept! Jorgeous tries being butch, Sailor Moon takes up smoking, and we discuss what's so f…

You'd think with a name like that they'd get the Property Brothers as guest stars. One of them is gay, right? Anyway, this week, the queens have to sell houses in mythical, made-up places such as Florida (RIP Uncle Raydell) and Texas. Then they have to take the runway in a day-to-night Ruveal that reminded this ol' bitch about the Barbie Doll who c…

So we're all running on three hours of sleep because David's bachelor party but we love you enough to get an episode out to you. You're WELCOME. In this week we get a bunch of drool-worthy firefighters getting in drag as the girls work in teams. Who serves kitty and who serves burn victim? Listen to the episode to find out! I don't know! Steven and…
