The Nipples Are The Eyes of the Face (W/ Mijon Zulu, Nick Probst, Greggor Mattson, & LaWhore Vagistan (aka Kareem Khubchandani))

Hey ya’ll. This week is a little bit of a curveball, so Mijon is flying solo with queer academia! Yes, we repeat, we are going back to school with professors from Oberlin and Tufts University who have literally been teaching the children about queer nightlife! Greggor Mattson and Kareem Khubchandani/ LaWhore Vagistan are absolute dears who help us deep-dive into RuPaul's Drag Race UK Season 2 Episode 6 Snatch Game.

We discuss: Why no one gives Tia Kofi credit for being a lip-sync assassin! Lawrence Chaney has 3 badges so it is time for lip sync. Can a drag queen REALLY elevate themself while filming on the show? Ellie Diamond has a twin and she is crying - a lot. Is she going home? Miriam Margolyles - ouch! Bimini Bon-Boulash's Katie Price - YASSSSSSS! Sister Sister is a psychic - can the franchise actually take another psychic on Snatch Game. Gemma Collins who? Was she even there? What is a bell end?
