"Everything Feet" (w/ Gracie Abrams)

The unreal Laura Benanti joins Matt + Bowen for a lil' Las Cultch that is performed in exactly the CORRECT key! That means the first ever Maria Von Trapp is in the studio! As well as the first Gypsy Rose Lee, the first Melania Trump, the first Eliza Doolittle and the SECOND Claudia from Nine! The three all come together, forming a trine, to ask... what is the POINT of vacation? What does it mean to be Italian,  not by blood, but by love? What is the backstage etiquette when your friend is in a show that is awful? When is it just too many mugs in the cupboard? Also, the story of Tita Papa, the Italian Santa Claus who sleeps with your wife, how Laura broke her neck committing onstage, and what it was like to experience Sleep No More alongside a terrified Patti LuPone. All this, the impact of the Into The Woods PBS pro-shot, liking musicals but loving Sondheim, hosting the Jimmy Awards, No Hard Feelings, "comedic embarrassment" and realizing that your vagina may but be The Portal To Greatness. You gotta head over to www.nobodycaresisacomedy.com and get tickets to see NOBODY CARES, Laura's new stand up show. She's brilliant in every way. Just like you<3See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I'll make time for you? How about YOU make time for this hotly anticipated episode of Las Cultch? The former maker of Vancouver's top-rated cheesecake Carly Rae Jepsen joins the boys and winningly plays along with our stupid little games that Bowen can barely commit to. It's a fragrant vortex of a time, with CRJ spilling on "Day and Night" (out September 18th), having her mind blown by the Spice Girls, and the "10 Things I Hate About You" musical. The "suggested donation" is that you listen to this extravaganza/hullabaloo and ENJOY.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Spike Einbinder and Honey Pluton bend the culture medium with their astrological sun, moon, and rising culture breakdown with Matt + Bo on Las Cultch! But first, the episode must mourn, but mourning is celebrating bodymaxxx full body chills for the legendary icon Dolly Parton and the ever important Tim Curry. Spike and Honey shed light on living in NY but BEING an Angeleno, how angel numbers follow you, cheese pulls on Instagram are actually more explicit than nudity on the platform and how watching Dancing with the Stars is like watching Ben-Hur and can be characterized as “tantric Television.” Also the impact of the Instagram presence of Vin Diesel, cultural excavation of Jackass as many things, including an enduring and beautiful display of the masculine fascination with the butthole and what it can handle, Spongebob Squarepants as a queer Simpsons, the repression of Squidward and how every frame of the series is a meme, and the equal talent and desperation of Kathy Griffin and seeking validation from the institutions you wish to destroy. IDTSH's on: pizza places that don't deliver slices, coffee shops don't have seats anymore, not believing in God, and pitying Spike's blind dog named Spider-man See these two on tour! And remember: Dolly would want us to pray!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

International pop king, Mickey Mouse of poppers, and eternal Best Gay Guy - Famous Troye “Tro” Sivan joins Matt + Bow on Las Cultch! The figure of great and unknown LC lore is here to discuss “the perfect crime” aka faking an orgasm as a top, the origins of “Troye, baby…”, and the idea of taking fat from your ass to cure volume loss under your eye. Also, where our husbands might live, how everyone’s life is a movie when they’re around Baz Luhrmann, and Disney characters reproducing. All this, the tea on how Troye’s new album She’s The Best is the most potent distillation of all his musical inspirations yet, Nicole Kidman in Moulin Rouge! as both formative culture and eventual muse, Little Shop of Horrors as a Faustian bargain with fame, and an I Don’t Think So, Honey on singing from one of our most forefront recording artists. The album is out October 9th and you can watch and stream “She’s The Best” now! That Tro, That Tro, wowwww. He’s the best.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Finally, Las Culturistas has a SET... and it has SET... them free. It's a brand new Las Cultch as Matt + Bowen neurally link and ride to the beach, to the stars and to heaven in this long-awaited culture catchup! Bowen discusses taking on the role of Mary Todd Lincoln (!!!) in OH, MARY (or shall we say BO, MARY!?) on Broadway (9/15 - 12/6!!!) and being ridden like a Banshee by a Navi acting coach. The boys discuss the albums of the moment: Confessions II, petal and, of course, C, XOXO, and confront themselves about why they haven't seen The Odyssey. Also, how Zara Larsson could be Jimmy Buffett if she wants, what it feels like to recover from a panic attack just in time for the Hilary Duff concert, and meeting Rosie O'Donnell in the wild... on Broadway! All this, Abdul El Sayed's "Positions" energy, the regional pronunciation of the word "Michigander", and "face acting" in film. All this, a shout out to Disney Cast Member Angel from the Kilimanjaro Safari in Animal Kingdom (we will literally never forget you), a highly awaited discourse on Peacock's SMASH HIT The Five Star Weekend (!!!), and due respect paid to The QVC Woman aka Toni Brattin, who we will hold on to forever. Real Miami girls get it poppin ❤️See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ramy Youssef joins Las Culturistas to try Celsius for the first time, and also re-connect with his old pals Matt + Bowen, the HOSTS of the Las Culturistas podcast. The full-blown vibe discusses inspiring his dad to take an acting class and walks us through his feelings about going to get a coffee with Dianne Weist (which happened right after this episode was recorded). Also, felony torrenting on Napster and the likelihood that Ramy will still be going to prison for illegally downloading Eminem in 1999. All this, the sad way that Hunchback ends, the potential value of a used Bowen Yang hoodie, Chinamaxxing, dogs in restaurants, spinach at the store, and shit-talk on the streets. Listen to this episode to find out how well Ramy knows Zohran AND the exciting reveal of “how all gay people are”! Ramy’s new special, In Love, is streaming on HBO now!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's Mr. Bo and Mr. Ro with Ms. Co on a "really good day, astrologically"! And that's that me nirvana! Fresh from being medically fingered on the upper west side, Catherine Cohen is BACK on the podcast to talk about her new Off-Bro show at the Lucille Lortel theater (so... Ms. Lo, we guess!) It's called Broad Strokes and you can go see it now until September 5th! The three old pals reminisce and conspire for a Seek Culture reunion, discuss pelvic floor dysfunction, and look back fondly on their most memorable fingerbangs. Also, "Espresso" in its terrible twos, how Dr. Love filled the hole in Catherine's heart (literally), and the "euthanasia coaster". All this, an attack on routine, an attack on thumbs, and an attack on British accents (that we are the perpetrators of). Catherine is sweet as honey, delightful as pie, and God's gift. Go see Broad Strokes at the Lucille Lortel in NYC!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Join Matt, Bowen and self proclaimed "walking psychedelic trip" KESHA on this episode of Las Culturistas, which begs the question: should Kesha open up a supermarket that sells "pop rocks flavored blue Kesha ramen"? The three silly gooses discuss that, as well as hoarding, doing mushrooms in the desert, and building community amongst millions of Animals out there. Also, working with Rick Rubin and Ryan Lewis to discover new depths to Kesha's voice and artistry, how hearing "Drop It Like It's Hot" opened up a world of musical possibility for Kesha, the sexual awakening that was Will Smith in the late 90's, and collecting teeth. All this, raging on the Kesha Cruise with Bob the Drag Queen and Big Freedia, spirituality, and the idea that Kesha is on her last human life. You are the crazy people, and you are also the fortunate people that Kesha blessed LC with her time! Listen to "Origami" now and see Kesha on The Freedom Tour! Kesha makes our heart beat like an 808 drum. And so do you <3See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
