THiRST TRAP OF THE WEEK: PANGINA HEALS

THiRST TRAP OF THE WEEK: PANGINA HEALS

Pangina Heals is one of the most recognizable drag artists in the world and after this conversation, you'll understand why she's so much more than just a Drag Race icon. We sit down with Asia's most famous drag queen to talk about her new documentary, HEALS, a deeply personal project filmed over three years that explores her career, family, identity, and the complicated relationship she has with her mother. Pangina opens up about growing up, navigating expectations, repairing family relationships, and why so much of her drive comes from pain, pressure, and perseverance. Of course, it wouldn't be a Pangina interview without plenty of chaos. We discuss everything from hosting versus competing on Drag Race, memorizing 60 songs for UK vs The World, coaching Miss Thailand contestants, the cutthroat world of pageants, ghost stories, clown chasers, drag hookups, and whether older queens still have a place on modern Drag Race. Along the way, Pangina shares some of the funniest stories we've ever heard on the podcast — from raccoons and witch doctors to black magic. And don't forget the GAYMES! We ask her all about her UK vs. The World and Drag Race Live! Vegas cast including who she's closest to. Her wit is unmatched, her perspective is refreshing, and her ability to switch from heartfelt vulnerability to absolute nonsense in seconds is exactly why audiences around the world love her. Whether you've followed Pangina since Drag Race Thailand, UK vs The World, or you're discovering her for the first time, this episode captures the intelligence, humor, and heart that have made her a global drag superstar. Trust us: you need to watch this one to fully understand the phenomenon that is Pangina Heals. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

THYRST TRAPS OF THE WEEK: JUICE BOXX & CAMMY FRANNY

Two fitness trainers, one drag queen, and zero filter. This week Frankie is joined by THE OG'S. Canada's Drag Race Season 1 star Juice Boxx and Barry's trainer Cammy Franny (Cam Francis) for an insightful, honest, and hilarious episode. THE CHEMISTRY WAS CHEMISTRYING. What starts as a conversation about baldness and Ne-Yo's very public polyamory situation spirals fast. We get into peptides, testosterone, and this Ozempic era. And what all of that means when you're a drag queen who also lifts. Juice Boxx gets candid about navigating life as Joe AND Juice Boxx, saying yes to everything in the triple threat career, and what it actually takes to balance drag with fitness. Cammy opens up about the real physical expectations that come with being a trainer in gay spaces, the straight guy clients, and the "be you, f**k you, or hate you" philosophy he swears by. And don't forget about RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 11. These two guests do NOT hold back. We discuss this very interesting... format, we make our picks for who's advancing and get some insight on the WeHo Drag scene. And we of course wrap up with our GAYMES including: the worst gym etiquette offenders ranked, who's more intimidating — a spin instructor or a drag queen — and a Marry Hook Up Block round that went fully off the rails. STAY THYRSTY. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy [https://acast.com/privacy] for more information.

THYRSTY TRAPS OF THE WEEK: MAKAYLA COUTURE & BABY BEL BEL

We’re joined by Makayla Couture and Baby Bel Bel for one of our funniest, highest energy, and full-circle episodes yet. Baby Bel Bel was the first drag queen Frankie ever saw perform, and Frankie was there to watch one of Makayla Couture's early performances in a tiny café. Interviewing them both on the podcast now, after everything they’ve accomplished, just feels right. Makayla debuts her brand new boobs (with basically no recovery time… a medical marvel), which leads into a real conversation about body image, balance, and taking care of yourself in and out of drag. We also get into the Crews & Tangos competition drama (where the girls did not take Frankie's critique well), what the word on the Village streets are about Frankie, and what it takes to grow in this industry. Plus: We break down all 3 of the new All Stars 11 Brackets, and ofc some Drag Race trivia. This episode is chaotic, hilarious, and easily one of our most laugh-out-loud conversations yet. Don’t miss it and STAY THYRSTY. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy [https://acast.com/privacy] for more information.

THYRST TRAP OF THE WEEK: KENDALL GENDER

This week we’re thirsting over our red headed beauty THYRST TRAP OF THE WEEK. She’s a performer, host, model and activist. She’s graced our screens and stages - it’s the West Coast diva - Kendall Gender! From Drag Race budgets, filler and nose jobs, and Ozempic in the drag community, and whether or not drag queens are being up charged for looks going on Drag Race (we're still on the budget debate!) She gets candid about navigating body image struggles within the LGBTQ+ community and in the world of drag and how to balance it all. We get into the current Drag Race Season 18 takes, who she thinks should win (and who actually will), and whether she’d ever go back on Drag Race/reality TV. Plus: drama from Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, a full run of chaotic games (including Heads Up: Drag Queen Edition), and Kendall makes me bold promise — she’ll do the Grouse Grind in drag if she hits 100K from this episode… so go follow!

THYRST TRAP OF THE WEEK: BROOKE LYNN HYTES

I was star-struck for this one! The first ever Drag Race anything I watched was the first season of Canada's Drag Race hosted by none other than Brooke Lynn Hytes. To have her as a guest on my own podcast interviewing her about the very show that started this entire journey is such a full circle moment. She opens up about her journey in drag, hosting, acting, and her never-ending hustle, plus the behind-the-scenes of her career milestones. From interacting with RuPaul to filming the upcoming movie Stop! That! Train! directed by Adam Shankman, Brooke Lynn shares candid thoughts on managing her busy career and what goes into creating the magic on Canada’s Drag Race. She reflects on favorite winners some of her favourite winners, memorable moments from past seasons, and her take on the highly anticipated All Stars season.
