I'm Delta Work and it's time for Very

0:03

Scary Delta where it's Halloween all

0:05

month long. Big D is

0:08

here, but first,

0:10

do you want to see me go off? Because

0:12

I think you want to see me go off. Oh. Em.

0:16

Oh. Em. Em.

0:19

Em.

0:20

Em.

0:21

Are you a gulita like me?

0:25

Do you want to suck blood like

0:27

me? Do you wear a sexy

0:29

nun costume just like me? Do

0:32

you wear hypnotique at Halloween

0:34

like me? Do

0:36

you drink green jello shots like me? Do

0:40

you love fun-sized candy like

0:42

me? Well, if you do,

0:44

then you must be

0:46

very scary, Delta.

0:50

I'm

0:52

Delta Work and this is Very Scary

0:55

Delta, a luxury public access

0:57

podcast and YouTube talk show where

0:59

I look gorgeous, speak extemporaneously,

1:02

and invite fascinating people to sit

1:04

on the couch and get very scary,

1:07

Delta. Very Scary Delta is

1:09

for the woman who once found, instead

1:11

of a razor blade in her Halloween candy,

1:14

a gorgeous teardrop zirconia

1:16

clip-on earring.

1:18

But first, let's get

1:20

into some things that are very

1:22

scary, Delta. Ghoul

1:25

off, Delta! Here

1:28

are some foods that I don't like. I

1:31

don't like peas. And

1:33

I want to start off by saying, like, I love

1:35

the color of peas. Pea green is one of my favorite

1:37

colors. I think it's beautiful.

1:40

I love the idea of what peas look like. I

1:42

love plants that sort of have that little bead

1:45

sort of idea. Peas to me look

1:47

like some sort of embellishment. They

1:49

look really pretty when they're sort

1:51

of

1:52

together, maybe in a bowl. I think

1:54

I like the idea of them falling

1:57

because I love beans, right? I love kidney

1:59

beans.

1:59

I love corn,

2:02

niblets. I love that idea, but

2:05

there's something about a pea that I don't

2:07

like and it's it's I know

2:10

it's the texture because it's similar

2:13

to another food that

2:15

I like and don't like

2:17

for the same reasons as the pea and I know

2:19

I said I don't like peas and I don't

2:21

like these but there's a time when I

2:23

do like peas and now let me break it down for you. I love

2:26

love love tomatoes. I love tomatoes.

2:30

I love extra tomatoes. When I go to Subway, I

2:32

say extra tomatoes. I want a row of tomatoes

2:35

and I want another row of tomatoes and

2:37

I want salt and

2:40

I want pepper, right?

2:42

I will eat at home. I will eat, I

2:45

will get sourdough bread like this and

2:47

I'll toast it and then I'll turn it so that

2:49

the other half of it goes down in there and

2:52

then I will put mayonnaise and all

2:54

that's like a whole tomato. I will slice it up and

2:57

Swiss cheese and salt and

2:59

pepper and that's my sandwich. That's my favorite sandwich

3:03

but I do not

3:05

like the little round,

3:08

I don't like cherry

3:10

tomatoes and I don't like grape tomatoes. Listen,

3:14

I've been a lot of places. I've seen

3:16

a lot of faces so

3:19

you know I'm around the way and I've

3:21

been there and I've done that so don't

3:24

fuck with me when I say this. Well

3:26

I don't like when a cherry tomato

3:28

or a grape tomato busts in my mouth. I

3:31

just don't like it. Now I'm not saying I am not

3:34

experienced in having anything

3:37

bust in my mouth, right? I've

3:39

been there, I've done that and I'll do it again but it's

3:42

that cherry tomato and that grape tomato. I don't like that

3:44

that feeling. Now I'll eat them halved,

3:48

that's the same thing with a pea. I

3:50

don't like that pop. There's something

3:52

about that. It's just,

3:54

it feels weird. However, I love

3:58

pea soup. pea

4:00

soup Anderson's like a place like

4:03

that because the peas are emulsified right

4:05

you put that thing in there and you're like and

4:10

they blend it all up and then you put bacon

4:12

or ham the flavor

4:14

is great it's the texture

4:16

so when it busts in my

4:19

mouth whether it's a

4:21

cherry tomato a grape tomato and

4:23

how beautiful are those tomatoes like like

4:25

tomatoes that are like heirloom where

4:28

they're like yellow and orangey and

4:30

spotted like they're beautiful but

4:32

that and also well you know what too

4:36

it's it's there is a taste the

4:38

taste is different in in a

4:41

cherry tomato and a grape tomato there's something about it

4:43

is a little bit earthy like

4:46

more earthy than a vine ripened or

4:48

a beef steak or a Roma I quite

4:52

like Roma tomatoes yeah

4:55

if I'm gonna slice them and I and the reason I do

4:57

is because you know when you bite into a sandwich and

5:00

there's a tomato in it and the tomatoes like I'm coming with you

5:02

and like the whole piece comes out if

5:05

I slice up a Roma the

5:07

idea there is that when I bite it if a piece comes out

5:09

at least that piece you can like you

5:12

can have that piece and like it doesn't ruin

5:14

the whole sandwich because there's other layers of tomatoes

5:16

anyway peas peas and the

5:19

tomatoes the cherry tomatoes are the

5:21

grape tomatoes oh no not in their

5:23

whole form not in their whole form at

5:26

all I also I cannot

5:29

fuck with sunny side

5:32

or any kind of runny yolk this

5:34

is what has scared me away from something

5:36

that I know I would love and that

5:39

is ramen like I've never been

5:41

to a ramen restaurant I've eaten top ramen

5:44

right I've eaten like cup of noodles that's

5:46

not the exact same thing that's like a dummy down

5:48

version I get it but every time

5:50

I see people go to beautiful ramen restaurants

5:52

with all these gorgeous ingredients I hear

5:55

about the egg that goes on

5:57

top that makes it so nice and rich

6:00

and you mix that in and of course it does like I guess

6:02

cook it in a way but it still makes

6:04

it creamy and that is just like

6:06

it gives me oscul it

6:08

just gives me like like

6:10

the idea of that like I

6:13

can smell it this smells like upper

6:15

lip like it's there's a there's a smell

6:18

to that that is like cheek or something I don't

6:20

know what it is but it prevents

6:22

me from going out and enjoying ramen

6:24

in a restaurant because I am

6:26

one of those people that has a hard time asking

6:29

for special requests so

6:31

if you look at like all the things and they're like oh

6:33

this one's the the Dionysus

6:36

bowl or this is the um

6:39

Yvonne bowl or whatever the names are

6:41

for these specific like treats I

6:43

don't want to say like oh could I get that with no

6:46

egg and then have everyone turn around and be like no

6:49

egg sow

6:52

no egg heven

6:54

like I know people are going to

6:56

look at me like that's the whole point of this place is

6:58

a richness a creaminess a mushroom

7:01

an onion like all those things and I

7:03

just don't want people to look at me crazy so I'm

7:05

like oh ramen yeah

7:08

um

7:09

I have Covid I can't go like I feel

7:11

like I have to do that you know what I mean like

7:13

because I don't want people to be like this

7:16

untrained asshole wants

7:18

to come in here and tell them how to cook ramen

7:21

you're so disrespectful like of

7:23

course when I go to a restaurant I always ask

7:25

for my brisket burnt ends very

7:28

well done because I like them crunchy

7:30

like I almost like it to be like beef jerky right

7:33

um the ramen so

7:35

like I can't go to a ramen restaurant because

7:38

I'm afraid that everyone's gonna laugh at me when I

7:40

say I don't want any egg in it and I know

7:42

I'm uh depriving myself

7:44

of probably a really great experience but

7:46

I would rather not have the experience

7:48

at all then go in somewhere and have people

7:51

be like this one right here like

7:53

I'll never order filet mignon because I would

7:55

say can I have that very

7:57

well done and then people are like oh sick.

8:00

Like are you serious? The

8:02

thing about the egg yolk is

8:05

that it is super, super featured

8:07

as a top note in Häagen-Dazs

8:10

ice cream. And baby, I love ice

8:12

cream. My go-to is usually Ben

8:14

and Jerry's. I love any of the flavors.

8:16

They're all great. Although cookie dough, I'm not

8:18

one of those people because there's raw eggs in cookie

8:21

dough. Yuck. Probably not a miss.

8:23

It's probably, they've dummied it down and it's just

8:25

like granulated sugar and gum,

8:28

whatever it is. But you know when people

8:31

are like, oh, taste the cookie dough out of a bowl. No,

8:33

fuck off. Like that. I don't know why that's fun to just

8:35

eat raw ingredients. Like you can have

8:38

raw celery, you can have raw sex, but

8:40

why would you have raw like eggs

8:43

that way? I don't know. I just can't do it. So I

8:45

can't eat the Häagen-Dazs because you

8:47

go in a little bit, a wonderfully made

8:49

product, but the taste like, again,

8:52

it's that upper lip. It's that cheek. It's

8:55

that like, you

8:57

know when you pump gas, you

8:59

can smell it on your fingers? Like it's that and

9:01

it stays with you. I

9:04

fucks with Ben and Jerry's. I like

9:07

Thrifty brand ice cream. Stater

9:11

Brothers. You know, those kinds of things.

9:13

I mean, you

9:14

know,

9:15

I like plain vanilla ice cream. I

9:17

know that sounds weird to some people because they're like, there's so

9:19

many other flavors, but I love them all. I'm just

9:21

saying I won't turn down a vanilla

9:24

ice cream. Why would you turn that down? It's like having

9:26

a glass of water, you know, just clean

9:29

and crisp. And I feel

9:31

like it's it's so and there's no

9:33

calories in vanilla. If you did not know this,

9:35

there's no calories in vanilla ice cream

9:38

because there's no ingredients. There's none of that chocolate

9:40

or nuts or any

9:42

of that is calorie free to

9:44

have vanilla ice cream. So

9:47

I am a fan of

9:49

hot wings and

9:52

I am a fan of like

9:55

like boneless wings and I like I like

9:57

wings on the bone. I like the the drum

10:01

and I also like the,

10:03

what are they called? Flats. I

10:06

like the flats and I like the drum. I guess

10:08

that's what they're called. I like them. I'm

10:10

with it. But I'm only with it like

10:13

here and then

10:15

here and then I'm

10:17

done with it. I'm not with it in here.

10:20

Like I can't get in here

10:22

because I feel like when you get in there, that's

10:24

when all that cartilage happens

10:26

and I see people that clean their bones. I've

10:29

seen people, I actually saw a lady do this thing where

10:31

she gets the flat and

10:33

she goes to bite it and

10:37

you pull. That's the way you're supposed to do it. You

10:39

bite it and pull both sides and

10:41

all the meat stays in the middle. Now some

10:43

people will clean them up for a multitude

10:45

of reasons. Number one, they like it. They like the way it

10:47

tastes. They love it. Some people want that

10:50

crunch because I love that crunch that's around. You

10:52

know that piece that's around a corn dog? That

10:55

little, you go like that. I

10:57

like that part because I know

11:00

that it's breading and I know that on

11:02

the end of these wings that there's breading

11:05

but I know underneath that breading is that cartilage

11:07

and that knuckle or whatever the fuck it

11:09

is, I am not with

11:11

it. So I have to, and

11:14

I'll set it that way. And then a boneless,

11:18

I'm kinda with it but I feel like a boneless is

11:20

like a chicken nugget. I mean, you

11:22

know, it's not, I don't know. The storyline

11:24

is not there. But then when I start to see like that

11:28

purple, that's when I'm like, I'm vegan. I

11:30

can't, I'm vegan. I can't,

11:33

because I'll get that. And I saw this

11:35

meme the other day and it made so much sense. This

11:37

girl said that she was enjoying this chicken

11:40

and then the chicken started getting too chickeny. And

11:42

then she was like, I'm off it for six months. I

11:44

can't like that. I don't know what it is. It's just something,

11:46

I don't know if it's because I'm getting

11:48

older or I'm just finicky or if it's

11:51

a real thing but do

11:55

you wanna see me take a break? I think you

11:57

wanna see me take a break.

12:11

I want to tell you about something very

12:13

Delta. It's hard to know where to start with supplements

12:16

and who to trust, but AG1 makes

12:18

that so much easier. AG1

12:21

is a foundational nutrition supplement that

12:23

offers comprehensive nutrients to support whole

12:25

body health. I started drinking AG1

12:28

not long ago and I immediately

12:30

felt results. I ask a

12:32

lot out of this body and I put these bones

12:35

through it. And I'm telling you right now, it

12:37

feels like I'm doing something good for my body.

12:39

Like I'm giving my body the nutrition it craves.

12:42

I didn't know where to start and I thought I would just start

12:44

here and I just know I'm putting a foot

12:46

in the right direction. AG1 replaces

12:49

your multivitamin, probiotic and

12:51

more in one simple drinkable

12:53

habit. Why take a bunch of things when you

12:55

can do just one scoop of

12:57

powder, mix it in water, do

13:00

that once a day, you're done. AG1

13:02

was designed with ease in mind so you can

13:04

13:06

having to complicate your routine. If

13:09

13:37

Do you love a big D? I

13:40

know I do. Here today with me,

13:43

my very, very good friend, my actual

13:45

literal sister, the one and only

13:48

Big D. Hi, I'm so happy

13:50

to be here. I'm happy to have you here. You

13:52

know, I was a little bit nervous but

13:54

now I just feel like, you know, with all the Halloween

13:56

stuff, we're right at home, aren't we? Well you're

13:59

the queen of... Halloween you're at least

14:01

royalty at the minimum because

14:03

we for us Halloween's all year round. Right,

14:05

right. And you've always felt that way. Yeah I mean, it's

14:08

Halloween is always inside my soul like every

14:10

day I wake up and I you know, I

14:12

look at my room at my house and it's all

14:14

decorated and I All throughout the

14:16

year with horror things little kitschy

14:19

stuff. So it's kind of my thing But

14:22

you know, I have this dichotomy

14:24

where I'm like kind of a spooky

14:26

kid or whatever. I'm a little weird But

14:29

then sometimes when I'm in drag you

14:31

have to be like the brunch girl or whatever

14:34

it is So I feel like I have this weird

14:36

dichotomy even in my my

14:38

room My decorations are kind of like

14:41

a little bit a little bit brunchy

14:44

Perce and a lot Halloween. I love

14:46

it. This is making me feel right at home though.

14:48

Well, we are We

14:50

are so Cal Queens. Mm-hmm.

14:53

And what region do you provide

14:55

services in? Well, I Nowadays

14:57

I get look I get around a lot more than I used

15:00

to but mostly I'm in Long Beach At

15:02

hamburger Mary's, you know, we perform in Long Beach

15:05

and a bunch of other clubs around there But I

15:07

pride myself on being a you know, a proud bar

15:09

Queen and it's what I've done for years

15:12

and years I know we've known each other for I tried

15:14

to figure it out on the way here in

15:16

the car and I think we've known each Other for the better part

15:18

of at least a little bit more than 20 years

15:21

maybe Oh longer than that. Yeah, for sure

15:23

for sure, especially I mean back when

15:25

you were You know Wearing

15:28

the what so some some

15:30

of us back in the day would wear the platform

15:32

but you were the double stacked platform Oh, yeah,

15:35

the the double stacked was

15:37

it John tayer was on tape the double stacked

15:39

John T With no ankle strap because that's

15:42

cheating right and that it

15:44

was like an eight and a half eight and a half inch heel

15:46

With a five and a half inch platform, right? And

15:48

those were the things to do which I never

15:51

got when people are like Oh, it's a platform. It's more

15:53

comfortable because it's not really that much of an incline

15:56

Maybe it's not an incline necessarily in the

15:58

arch, but you're still off off the

16:00

ground eight and a half inches. Yeah and

16:02

I mean at that point I was probably 125 pounds soaking

16:06

wet so I thought it was the thing to do. Right.

16:08

But now uh I've got my little

16:10

scooties right here. Leg up. Yeah.

16:12

Leg up, why not? And they're a lot more comfortable

16:15

for the longevity of my career

16:17

per se but those were the shoes honey.

16:20

You still wear them sometimes. The little

16:22

clears, the acrylics. Oh my my my little

16:24

my scooty clear nail salon

16:26

shoes. Yeah it's like it's a nod to the

16:28

old days I think right? Yeah. So it's

16:30

been a while since I've actually done

16:33

Halloween numbers

16:36

at brunch and I don't think what a lot of

16:38

people don't understand is what we want

16:40

to do when it comes to like

16:43

a night show where it's a largely queer

16:45

audience. Right. Like we can do something a little more

16:47

conceptual or involve a prop or or

16:50

nod to like something from the 60s

16:52

or whatever but when it's brunch we're

16:55

so used to doing sing-alongs that sometimes

16:58

you have to still do your regular number. You

17:00

just wear an outfit that suggests

17:02

because people have to be like they have to be comfortable

17:04

with what they're looking at. Right and you still

17:06

have to you know pay the rent so you're bopping

17:08

around collecting your coins and people love to

17:11

brunch audiences they want to sing along.

17:13

They want something that's a little

17:15

more maybe you know fun

17:18

not not theatrical per se. But

17:21

there's that weird like I said there's that

17:23

you have to find that dichotomy where you're

17:25

performing for an audience for money and to

17:28

entertain them and give them what they want in the scope

17:30

of that brunch moment but you

17:33

also want to feel the Halloween spirit

17:35

and I think you did touch on that. I think it's

17:37

been lacking for years steadily

17:40

in the drag community where we don't

17:43

do those big like oh I'm

17:45

going to put on a prosthetic this time.

17:47

Oh I'm going to dump a big old bucket

17:49

of corn syrup blood on myself. We don't

17:52

I see less and less of that

17:55

you know as the years go by and I understand why

17:57

because a lot of I think.

18:00

in my humble opinion, a lot of maybe the girls are

18:02

afraid to not be pretty per

18:04

se or be judged by

18:07

their fellow entertainers, the younger

18:09

ones. So they just, I'll

18:12

put a little witch hat on and wear

18:14

my pasties or whatever it is. And there's a place

18:16

for that. There's a place for everything in any show.

18:19

But I miss those good old days where we would just really

18:22

get to go for it. And it's, I

18:24

don't know, one o'clock at a brunch

18:26

at the Little Mary's, not the new one, the

18:28

little tiny Long Beach Mary's. Sure, the old school.

18:31

And we're sitting there pouring blood on ourselves and just running

18:33

around like crazy. I do miss that.

18:35

Yeah. I feel like we can't go there

18:37

as much as we used to. I noticed

18:40

something in this conversation that I've noticed with other

18:42

friends that have been doing drag for a long time.

18:45

And that is like, I can remember when we were

18:47

coming up, there would be older queens that would give

18:49

advice or give observations. And we were

18:51

like, oh, God, what

18:54

they're saying. I would never want to be that.

18:56

And I feel like as we have sort of aged

18:59

into what we're doing, we really do our best

19:01

in conversations

19:05

to let people know that we hold

19:07

space for everyone. And

19:09

these opinions that we're giving are not to discredit

19:11

anyone. And I hear that in

19:14

your language, and I hear it in my language, and I'm noticing

19:16

it right now that

19:20

we hold ourselves in

19:22

high regard, but we also hold the

19:24

younger people in high regard as well. So

19:26

we never want to come off as like, we're being shitty.

19:30

And it kills me because I look

19:33

back at those hearing those conversations

19:35

of whoever and you know who they

19:38

were. Yeah, we know. That would

19:40

just put out these blanket sort of like

19:43

edicts about this is the way drag should be

19:45

done. And we do our best because we don't believe

19:47

there's one way to do drag. No. People

19:49

that hear these conversations know that we're

19:51

not saying, well, we should be doing it this

19:53

way because we're not saying that. Yeah, by

19:56

no means is any one of us. I

19:58

think we're trying to like go. toward

20:00

this place where we find again this happy

20:02

medium between, oh, this is how we used to

20:04

do it. This is how the older,

20:06

more, I don't know, more established queens

20:08

in the bar scene do it. And

20:11

this is how you may, if you would like to, apply it to

20:13

what you're doing right now because I see you going in a

20:15

really cool direction and I want

20:17

to put you there in a more positive

20:19

way instead of just... Because

20:21

nowadays, you know, you can't give

20:23

anybody advice that they don't want to take and sometimes

20:26

I try not to even offer it if not solicited.

20:29

But when you see a bitch struggling and

20:32

you know she's like almost there, you got

20:35

to tell a bitch when she's a little funky.

20:37

We do it to each other. We sit in the dressing room

20:40

and tell each other how awful certain things are

20:42

like, oh, bitch, I can wear that shoe again. Or,

20:45

oh, honey, you're wearing your Sunday tights from

20:47

three Sundays ago. You need to throw them in

20:49

the washer, honey. That sit-down wind is

20:51

getting... That chair air. The chair air is

20:53

getting... Yeah, but when it's something that you came up with...

20:55

Well, I think I might have seen it somewhere, but...

20:58

Okay. But it's... It's

21:00

evolved. It has evolved into a thing. So sit-down

21:03

wind and or chair air is

21:06

the moment when an individual

21:08

has been reclining upon maybe

21:11

a settee, maybe like a folding

21:13

chair, whatever they're sitting on. The

21:15

moment when they vacate that space

21:18

and the aroma

21:21

and or aura that... The bubble. The

21:24

bubble. The chair air. The puff of

21:27

just ambiance that refuses

21:30

to vacate the space. That is your chair

21:32

air. And if your chair air is incorrect, then

21:34

you need to get checked and you got to tell

21:37

your friends. Well, and we talked about this

21:39

because there's like people that like sometimes somebody...

21:41

Sometimes people will not stink. It's like

21:44

they're a suitcase or it's a costume or

21:46

it's a breastplate or it's whatever it is. And

21:49

so we were talking about this at brunch because it came

21:51

up and then we kept like... Evolving

21:53

like the name of it. And then we came

21:55

to this agreement that like, okay, if

21:58

one of us feels like... You've

22:00

gone from like three seatings of brunch and

22:02

then you did a pride event and then it's nighttime

22:05

and we're like doing a night Show bitch

22:07

when I get up you better put your face at my

22:09

chair Yeah And you tell me if there

22:11

is a funk around me or there's something

22:14

because that is the that's the I think

22:16

the most I think it would be the most

22:18

like

22:19

Concentrated essence of what

22:22

your drag is giving a right chair air

22:25

It's the the seat you've been sitting in right waiting

22:27

between brunches. Just kind of Marinating

22:31

it a bit chair air chair air You

22:34

better sit up when from the from the chair

22:36

air. I Can't I mean I think

22:38

it's the funniest thing ever. Also. I feel

22:41

like we have used the word dichotomy

22:45

at least three or four times in

22:47

different ways and I feel like

22:49

we should try to introduce that word until The

22:52

end of this episode. Okay, if it

22:54

doesn't apply like Pee-wee's Playhouse like

22:56

right a secret word, right? I mean I pick

22:59

up that's it's something I do when I find a

23:01

word that I like I end up just Drilling

23:04

it to no end but it most

23:07

of my life now consists again. Like

23:09

I said of finding a dichotomy between Everything

23:12

really me being like a really nervous

23:15

person and still trying to You

23:18

know present that air of like confidence

23:20

me being you know in a brunch in

23:22

Halloween still trying to be spooky me trying

23:25

to impersonal relationships

23:27

me trying to you know be supportive

23:29

and and maybe You know give

23:31

people advice with without also coming

23:34

off arrogant and shit like that so But

23:36

that's I mean that giving that advice

23:39

and when we're when I said earlier about us like not

23:41

like holding space for people I feel like some

23:43

that's one thing that the two of us really

23:45

do have in common amongst a million things

23:48

is that especially in these past

23:50

few years maybe pandemic

23:53

eat now We

23:57

have had individual nights

24:00

at individual clubs, different clubs too, sometimes

24:03

the same club, where we

24:06

provide a space for entertainers that are

24:08

looking for stage time to

24:10

work things out or to start

24:12

fully blossoming. And I'm not saying

24:14

like, oh, we've given, we do nothing, we don't

24:16

get rewards for this. No, we get paid, like we

24:18

have a job. But what I mean is there's

24:22

not a lot of necessarily

24:24

people whose nights are dedicated

24:26

to high lighting

24:30

those people. And we love doing that. You

24:32

are a mother to many, many entertainers.

24:35

And there's an overlap that we have, the

24:37

two of us, where I might

24:39

have, I used to have like dirty work competition

24:42

forever. And a lot of those people have moved

24:44

on to, they weren't only growing

24:46

up there, they were going to

24:48

a lot of competitions. But we see them in

24:50

new competitions, we also see them headlining places.

24:53

And so we'll overlap. We'll have people

24:55

that'll do a Thursday that are also booked with

24:58

me on a Saturday. It just works

25:00

that way because we work within a group of people

25:02

that are kind of like-minded. Yeah. I

25:04

mean, especially I will say in the Long

25:06

Beach community per se, that's because that's

25:08

what I know the most about. Like

25:11

say we do that facade competition at

25:14

Mary's. They are

25:16

a lot of entertainers there are really like

25:18

top notch entertainment. And they

25:20

get seen by a girl

25:23

who may have a show that's judging or someone

25:25

in the audience who may have a birthday

25:28

party they want to book them for. I think it's a real

25:30

opportunity for them to shine

25:33

as long as they show

25:35

up on time. Wait,

25:38

what are the three rules? Was it show up on time,

25:41

promote to the best of your ability, for

25:43

God's sake when you walk into a dressing room, at

25:46

least greet the people in it. And

25:48

then say thank you on the way home and don't leave no

25:50

stank on your chair. Yeah, no chair air and tip the

25:52

bartenders. Oh,

25:55

absolutely. Let's take a break.

26:20

We are back with my good friend and

26:22

sister Big D. You're a

26:24

Halloween girl. Yes. And

26:26

you all would know that if you just if they were driving

26:28

behind you because you're you have a decal

26:31

a sticker on your car that says it says my

26:33

other car is a hearse. Right.

26:36

And I put that there just as a little jokey

26:39

joke because you know I wanted something back there but I

26:41

do find actually that it's a conversation

26:43

starter and it also stops people from

26:46

writing my ass so hard because it reminds

26:48

them of imminent death. Right. So

26:51

you know two birds one stone it's cute

26:53

and it keeps people off my butt. Yeah it

26:55

does. It really does. I mean but you are

26:58

through and through a Halloween girl. And

27:01

when I say that I mean I remember you

27:04

like working Dark Harbor not a

27:06

lot of people. If you're from the area you would

27:08

know what Dark Harbor is and there's so many

27:10

ways to be affiliated

27:13

with that event. You could be a performer. You can

27:15

attend. You could be a makeup artist. You could

27:17

help dress. How many capacities

27:19

have you worked at Dark Harbor? So

27:22

and if anybody doesn't know it's a hot event. It's

27:24

like a not scary farm sort of thing. And

27:26

it was on the Queen Mary which is one

27:29

of you know the most haunted known haunted

27:31

places in the world which was so

27:33

cool. Mays is on the boat. Mays is off

27:36

the boat. And I got hired there

27:38

to do makeup through Ishper

27:40

Mutis who you know well he's in

27:42

Vegas. He's one of my drag daughters. He does makeup

27:45

for everything. Oh with a makeup artist on Drag Race.

27:47

Oh absolutely. One of the original makeup artists.

27:49

I got hired through him by Christina

27:52

Cauffron and Jennifer Gozo.

27:55

So I started doing makeup there. I

27:57

had not done that sort of thing.

28:00

of special effects and

28:02

things like that because the makeup there is very,

28:04

very specific. They want you know high

28:06

contrast, low lighting.

28:08

They want you to look like they've

28:10

got a spotlight on your face and then the moment

28:12

it clicked for me is like oh shit that's like how

28:14

I paint my face because you can I can

28:17

be in pitch darkness and you can see all this

28:19

white highlight. I mean- Well we could

28:21

be on the moon. Well that's the thing. They always say paint for

28:23

the back row but I paint for the back row in a

28:25

show I did two weeks ago. I

28:27

like a bit of the highlight. Yeah

28:30

but so I did end up working with them

28:32

for a couple years I believe and I

28:35

did makeup. I learned how that's

28:37

what taught me how to do quick paints for

28:39

like Halloween stuff and or

28:42

just drag in general because they would give

28:44

us each monster like obviously

28:47

there were main characters that have prosthetics and things

28:49

like that but each monster would sit

28:51

in your chair and you would get three

28:53

minutes total from start to finish to

28:56

do their entire thing. Yeah so you would

28:58

airbrush a base whatever and then you would have to do

29:00

all of these like the

29:03

highlights contours and the colors all that

29:05

stuff. You would have to do all of that in three minutes and

29:08

that's what got me so fast to do like

29:10

little changes in the Halloween shows. I can

29:12

do that shit lickety-split because I

29:14

look at the big picture not the little

29:17

intricacies of like I'm not leaning into

29:19

a mirror thinking oh that eyeliner is weird.

29:22

Right. And that lent itself to you

29:25

know I turned that into part

29:27

of my drag and then after

29:29

I did that I really

29:31

really missed it and I've never gone back to do

29:33

a hunt and this year I

29:35

was telling you earlier this year

29:37

I actually considered maybe you know

29:40

trying to do makeup at a hunt or sitting in

29:42

a couple times for for it because it

29:44

really does run in your blood. I got to

29:47

tell you like the the haunt people like the not

29:49

scary farm people and everybody the monsters

29:52

are like a tight knit family the

29:54

sliders they've got their own cruise

29:56

there's it's there's a whole a huge

29:59

community. That revolves around

30:01

like haunts and I do really miss it and

30:03

one of these days i'm gonna go back and and do

30:05

it because there's nothing like doing

30:08

a quick paint on a smelly-ass monster

30:10

who's all sweaty and shit and smelling

30:13

the uh, the like the prosthetics

30:16

and the the airbrush paint and you

30:18

know that scent memory takes you back and that's Adult

30:21

halloween for me. Yeah. Yeah, I

30:23

do one of our crew here, uh, who

30:25

who edits, um, the this, uh

30:28

Show is a character at haunt.

30:31

Okay. Doug and he it's

30:33

like just everything that you described is

30:35

exactly like It's something that you really look forward

30:37

to and take a lot of pride in right? Um, and

30:40

as someone who you know Were born and raised

30:42

southern california There's something

30:44

extra special about knots

30:47

scary farms specifically like there's

30:49

just something like, you know when people say, um um

30:54

That la pride is big and then they

30:56

say long beach pride is big but you can

30:58

still see everything at long beach pride Right, that's

31:00

kind of how haunt feels to me at at not

31:02

scary farm. It's like it's not it's It's

31:05

huge, but it's not so huge that you don't get

31:07

to be part of all of it Right and I love

31:09

that description and what you're saying about the

31:12

the the smells and the the feel

31:14

and the pride and the cruise And the it

31:16

makes sense and like that the like the aroma

31:19

of the fog they say they always say oh See

31:21

you in the fog like that's they're greeting some

31:23

of them and they're it really is like well

31:25

Not scary farm in general is such a yeah,

31:28

you know if you've grown up in southern california It's such

31:30

a thing for us. I got my pass, honey I

31:32

go there once a week. Yeah and have my

31:34

little barbecue and walk around people watch

31:37

bird watch people's dads and things but Yeah,

31:40

oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, there's hot dads

31:42

there. Do you see them in the fog? I

31:44

do I will I will see them in the fog this

31:46

year. Would you uh, would you would

31:48

there ever be like, um, Um

31:51

bird watching in the mazes. Oh

31:53

baby. Don't even get me started on that.

31:56

I'm gonna get you started. Okay, so Like

31:58

I said, i'm a halloween queen at heart I'm

32:00

a little spooky, but I got to tell you the

32:03

monsters there's something really really

32:05

inherently Maybe it's the

32:08

the charge of like going through a maze

32:10

and being scared or having that like excited

32:12

feeling But there's something inherently

32:15

sexy about being scared at

32:17

a haunt by one of those sliders or

32:19

something like that You love it. I love it.

32:21

It's exhilarating. It really is. Have you

32:23

decided to go this year or not? Oh,

32:26

I'm always gonna go Oh, I always go but see we

32:28

have to do We

32:30

should probably get a group together because a

32:32

lot of times we do we have done this before Where

32:35

we go in a big group and then there's also other

32:37

times where other people can't go So we'll go in also

32:40

smaller groups, and it always overlaps.

32:42

I have to start at the buffet Yeah,

32:45

the buffet really worth that because

32:48

that's when you lay out the plan of action because

32:50

you look at the map and you're like Okay, this is what we need to do.

32:52

This is where we need to go But

32:55

I will say if anyone's never

32:57

been to haunt, you know, the thing is that the the

33:00

monsters and all of the characters

33:04

They're everywhere. So even if you're in like kind of a dead

33:06

area, no pun intended and you're

33:08

like, oh, there's no one around here They're around. Oh,

33:11

yeah, they're around and they'll find you But

33:13

the trick is if you get too scared and

33:16

I get too scared like I will get too

33:18

scared Um You

33:20

just have to go into like a concession place

33:22

or like a gift shop because

33:25

I can't go in there or the bathroom They can't

33:27

go in there and hurt you but they can lurk outside and they're

33:29

watching you know, that's uh, what's

33:31

fun I just went down there the other day For

33:34

one of my little trips. They actually have outside

33:37

It's they've got a setup of all the the haunt

33:39

memorabilia and things you can get because it's I believe

33:41

they're 50th Yeah 50 this year So

33:43

we went in there and then I looked and I saw

33:45

these little necklaces and it said no boo And

33:48

I said, well, what is that? So I had to look it up, you know,

33:51

I have to look everything up on Google and shit So

33:53

I look it up and it's a little light up necklace

33:56

that you can put on your kids or whatever

33:58

or somebody who does it want to be like

34:00

freaked out that bad. It's a little lanyard

34:02

and it says no boo like not no boo but

34:05

no boo don't scare me. Oh

34:07

not like N-O-B-U

34:09

like no boo restaurant? Yeah like no

34:11

boo like don't scare me. Oh I thought

34:13

it was like a pass to get into like a buffet at

34:16

no boo restaurant. Yeah well shit I can't

34:18

afford that but yeah

34:20

so it's a little lanyard that if your

34:22

kids don't want to be scared or something like that. I'm

34:25

not wearing that. I want to get scared. I feel like

34:27

you spent a lot of money to come here. You might

34:29

as well shit your pants just a little bit. Yeah yeah.

34:32

You spent good money to get scared. Yeah

34:34

do you remember like like maybe it was last year or the year

34:36

before when there was like something

34:39

was happening where too many people were fighting so they were

34:41

instituting like you can't come in after a certain

34:43

time if you're a certain age. But

34:45

that wasn't even haunt that was like regular

34:47

not very far. I mean you know

34:50

this is not casting aspersions on anyone or anyone's

34:52

thing but it's Buena Park.

34:55

I mean we're in we're in bellflower.

34:57

Let's not pretend. We know who we are. Yeah we

35:00

we we are in fact uh

35:02

from a certain area and we are certain people.

35:05

We are certain people. So we're not pointing

35:08

finger at anybody. These fingers are point when we go like this

35:10

these ones are pointing right back we know

35:12

that we are a fucking mess too. I mean I like

35:14

I like to have a little cocktail once in a while and we

35:16

maybe get a little bit rowdy but right let the kids

35:19

have fun as long as they're not hurting each other let them

35:21

have fun. And if they are hurting each other like I I'm

35:23

I want to I want to know. I want to see

35:26

I want to watch you on TikTok. I'm

35:29

fine with it. Um horror

35:33

films um especially you know

35:35

I love like Huluine and

35:37

all that and for me like as soon

35:39

as September hits I want

35:41

to know that every single day

35:43

I'm going to get to watch like a Lizzie Borden documentary.

35:46

Right. A Lizzie Borden reenactment.

35:49

I'm obsessed with Lizzie Borden. I'm

35:51

obsessed with um haunted

35:53

destinations. Do you have like certain things

35:55

like that you like whether it's a little or new? Yeah

35:58

so there's um I

35:59

Can't remember what what little app

36:02

it's on or whatever. It's on the it's on my Roku

36:04

and I like to watch

36:06

Not only ghost adventures or whatever, but

36:08

that's because now it's become this big weird

36:11

silly thing and right I

36:13

could do a whole Podcast just based on

36:15

how that guy's weird, but I

36:17

like to watch like haunted destinations most

36:19

haunted places Yeah, I really

36:21

enjoy the ones from like overseas

36:24

in Great Britain where they because I like to listen to people

36:26

talk to me in Accents, uh-huh, but they've

36:28

got you know of a deeper depth

36:30

of history with the locations and stuff like that

36:33

I like to watch the weirdest like homemade

36:37

almost stuff like all

36:39

search Through the thing to find

36:41

like the lowest production value

36:44

ghost adventures show or or

36:46

like you said the haunted places and stuff Uh-huh, and

36:49

I'll do it all year long But there's something

36:51

like you said, there's something really cool about the Hulu ween

36:54

or something Yeah, or when you're gonna sit

36:56

and you're like, hey, it's you know, it's a Tuesday

36:58

night I'm gonna sit in my bark a lounger

37:00

and I'm gonna get some fiddle faddle Uh-huh, and

37:02

I'm gonna watch like, you know, yeah

37:05

earnest the the earnest Halloween or

37:07

yeah anything like that any of those those

37:10

like the special special

37:13

Halloween episodes of You know

37:15

like Roseanne ones, let's say those

37:18

are the best or any, you

37:20

know sitcom Those are my favorites. I

37:22

love all those old things. I really do

37:24

I like to sit there and I like to get all

37:26

snuggled up and turn my AC on and pretend it's

37:28

cold outside Even though, you know, California

37:31

and it's 90 degrees in October And you

37:34

know we because we do shows

37:36

all the time or we're constantly in drag.

37:39

I feel like Throughout

37:41

the month It's like there's

37:43

a lot of activities we could we would

37:45

want to go do but we're constantly working

37:48

So that's why haunt is something special

37:50

for us or even for me Like if

37:52

I'm not I think Halloween's on a Tuesday

37:55

this year. Oh May

37:58

not obviously be working but But I'm

38:00

gonna get dressed up and probably go to Mary's.

38:02

That's what I like to do. That's what

38:05

we do. That's kind of like a home base for us where we sit

38:07

on the patio, we call it the parade, we

38:09

watch people walking up and down pine, we

38:12

laugh, and we really do legitimately get

38:14

dressed up. I remember last year, a bunch of the girls

38:16

were like, let's all just be different versions of witches. Remember

38:19

that? Obviously, Osmo's

38:21

Witches Ball. There's so many things

38:23

that we are still able to do. Really,

38:26

I just feel

38:28

like there's that kinship, not just with

38:31

us, and because you're sitting here, but

38:33

so many of our friends, again, Osmo,

38:35

Penny, Eddie, Roger,

38:38

people who, we just love Halloween

38:41

so much that we are not afraid

38:43

to goon out and be ridiculous.

38:47

Because we're kids. I mean, and the thing

38:49

is, like you said, we'll go to Mary's

38:51

if we're not working on the Halloween. We'll go

38:53

still in costume. I will get like a $20, like,

38:56

oh, I'll

38:58

get like a $20 pirate costume or

39:00

something, or a little witch's hat and just fucking run around.

39:03

It's fun, it's like our little pride,

39:05

kind of. I think I said it before, and I know you

39:07

agree with this, before we go to break, there's

39:11

a thing where when you really

39:14

love Halloween that much, and you

39:16

were raised with Halloween, and

39:19

my mom and your grandmother are

39:22

similar in age, and so they

39:24

were raised with big hair

39:27

and lots of makeup. Your grandmother's a

39:30

beautician. We would say a cosmetologist,

39:32

we would say a hairdresser, we would say a stylist. She

39:35

would probably say, I'm a beautician, you know, because

39:37

of the fact of the day, we were raised with all that.

39:39

So we never, and we also

39:41

were not raised with any amount of money.

39:44

So we hold the space

39:47

for the people who said, all

39:50

I have for Halloween is a hat. We

39:53

also, as entertainers, hold a

39:55

space for people who say, I

39:58

have a $5,000 Halloween costume. And to

40:00

us they're exactly the same as long

40:02

as you're having a fucking good time. Yeah, that's

40:05

who we roll with Absolutely like all through my

40:07

life in any capacity Halloween

40:10

is always held like a special place

40:12

and then if we can if we come

40:14

back I want to talk about Little kids

40:16

Halloween when I was little because that's something

40:18

that we I really want to talk about

40:20

different. It was different I

40:46

We are back with big D talking

40:48

about everything Halloween Whether

40:50

this is gonna be Halloween or not We would still be

40:52

talking about Halloween But you were hitting on earlier

40:55

about Halloween like as a kid

40:57

right and and that how that's different

40:59

that dichotomy Between

41:02

being an adult and a kid at Halloween

41:04

the difference well, so I

41:06

wanted to talk about like my

41:08

favorite memories of Halloween as

41:11

a kid because a lot of you

41:13

know Childhood we just forget stuff or it

41:15

wasn't that great some of it but the

41:17

best times of my life as

41:20

a child were Halloween because my

41:22

you know my mom and my grandma they never We

41:25

weren't like Nothing not

41:28

not to say there's anything wrong with that, but we weren't like trash

41:30

bag and plastic mask kids we

41:33

were go to the go

41:35

to the thrift store and figure out

41:37

something with whatever you could find there or

41:40

cut up grandma's dress or My

41:42

grandma sewed she so she would make

41:45

these really elaborate cool costumes She

41:48

would sew them and that was my favorite

41:50

part because that's getting

41:52

into my like Pre

41:55

pubescent queerness if you will that

41:57

was my one time where like I didn't have

41:59

to be afraid to be like, oh mom, you

42:01

know what I want to be. I want to be a devil,

42:04

but I want to be a devil in a tuxedo

42:06

with tails. I want to be an elegant

42:09

devil and I want to wear a lot of makeup because I seen

42:11

that makeup over there and I

42:13

want to play in that makeup. Or

42:16

I want to be a gay way drug. It really

42:18

was and I got to do like as I

42:20

got a little older, she didn't want to do that because she had the

42:22

two, my brother and my sister younger and

42:24

so she's getting them ready and I got to play in

42:26

the makeup and I was like, oh. And

42:28

then one year she got me these really, the

42:31

fancy makeup kit where it

42:34

shows you the steps and all that stuff. I

42:36

sat in her mirror for I don't know,

42:38

maybe two, three hours getting that devil

42:40

makeup sickeningly done and

42:42

it really did open up a place

42:45

for me where like I felt like

42:47

I was safe within my family unit

42:49

to be a little more flamboyant. I

42:54

would dress like, she would let me dress like a genie

42:56

and baby those wings were out

42:58

to here. Of course they were. And

43:01

like really, it really was,

43:03

Halloween was a safe place for me

43:05

to be a little bit gay

43:07

I guess. Yeah. And they

43:10

really took it seriously and we always felt like we

43:12

would always win the little competitions and stuff like

43:14

that because like I said, my mom

43:16

and my grandma and everybody, they would do their best

43:19

to like, that's again,

43:21

like that's how my drag used to be and is

43:23

now little bits and pieces to make something

43:26

that's maybe not as special. Look

43:29

elevated, look cooler, like go

43:32

to the thrift store and add a hat. If

43:34

you're going to be a clown,

43:37

we're going to get ruffles from this dress

43:39

and we're going to like tack it to the costume,

43:41

all that stuff. But you have a piece of advice that

43:43

I think you need to share with the world and

43:46

that is that every outfit

43:49

where undergarments are going to be

43:51

seen deserve

43:54

a matching panty. Oh, I

43:56

got it. Now what do you do if you

43:58

don't have exactly a matching panty? panty and

44:00

just the crotch might be seen. What would you

44:02

do? So specifically, how many years ago

44:05

would this have been? You could still do it today. I could do it

44:07

today but it would take a longer glove. But

44:09

so if you don't have a matching panty

44:12

to a garment and you have

44:14

an opera glove of

44:16

you know decent length, you can

44:18

in a pinch tuck that

44:21

arm piece of that opera glove right in front of your

44:23

little tights and pull that right back

44:25

there and make yourself a little thong that matches

44:27

exactly to that costume. She did it every

44:29

single time and it was always sickening because

44:32

we were like oh my god you made a panty and then she

44:34

would like unfold it and the fingers would pop

44:36

out and we were like because I didn't have

44:38

no money. I didn't have no money to buy a purple panty.

44:41

But the costumes that you would build

44:44

from that not even 99 only store just

44:46

a little tiny like 99 plus store

44:49

next to the old Mary's. Oh that was the one. You would come

44:51

back with like dream catchers. You

44:54

would come back with like I don't even know ponchos.

44:56

There were these uh what one year I think

44:58

it was the Easter walk. One year remember

45:00

I made us me Isha and Miss

45:03

Naz. I made us the matching Fanta

45:05

girl outfit out of these little hair

45:08

bows and loofahs. Yes. That I found at

45:10

that store right there. You did. You always

45:12

come up with stuff. That's that drag that we miss that

45:14

we talk about when we would go downtown and there would be like cardboard

45:16

boxes full of stuff and you're like look at all

45:18

these flowers I bought or one thing that

45:20

was real popular back in the early 2000s

45:22

were those sort of belts that were round

45:25

circles with grommets on them. Yeah kind of

45:27

like the everyone was like I found everything for my Shakira

45:30

number. Oh yeah. I found everything. Oh absolutely.

45:32

Now I'm Anastasia. Yeah oh my

45:34

god with the glasses. Um this is of

45:36

course the part of the of the podcast where people

45:39

send in letters. This is Read Me Delta. Read

45:42

Me Delta. If

45:44

you want to send a letter you can send it to readmedelta

45:47

at gmail.com. Questions,

45:50

queries, advice um

45:52

send those to us. Uh I don't

45:54

see these letters obviously until right now but this has got

45:56

like a happy. Actually I want you to feel the

45:58

sticker. Oh you can't. You have gloves

46:00

on. Well, I can feel it. Rub it on your face. Oh,

46:03

it's kinda gummy. Yeah, you feel it.

46:05

I like that. Yeah, I like it. It's a little weird,

46:07

I like that. It's fun, I like that. I actually kinda

46:09

wanna keep it. Put it on your window. Put

46:11

it, I can put it above, you can

46:13

put it above your sticker and it'll say, my other car's

46:15

a happy hearse. There you go. Yeah. Dear

46:18

Delta and Hermosa

46:20

Invitala. They knew I was here. Have

46:23

you ever been on the Next Door app

46:26

or anything similar? Would it make your brain

46:28

explode to know how much your neighbors, about

46:31

your neighbors worst paranoia and

46:34

biases? What are your thoughts? Yours

46:36

in Delta, even. I

46:39

don't know what the Next Door app is. So

46:42

if I'm not mistaken, we might have to look it up, but I

46:44

think I'm right. It's one of those kinda

46:47

community bulletin boards. Suck your delas on it. Oh,

46:49

oh, well, you know she's on it. She's on it, I know what

46:51

you're talking about. She found out

46:53

that there's coyotes in her neighborhood. She did, she told

46:55

me that. I'm like coyotes and Cerritos, okay.

46:58

But I think it's one of those kinda

47:00

community bulletin boards, and I do. I'm

47:02

still on Facebook because I'm old. So

47:05

I do, I live in Bellflower, so

47:07

I'm in the Bellflower groups, and sometimes you

47:09

see its neighbors mostly

47:12

spying on each other, talking shit about each other. Really?

47:15

Yeah, it's kinda cunty

47:17

in a way. Can I say that? I do. You

47:19

can say whatever you want. Okay, it is kinda cunty, because they'll go

47:21

back and forth, too, on these threads.

47:24

And you know how you'll see those weird memes on

47:28

Instagram, whatever, and it's like, oh, so-and-so,

47:32

you're a dirty bitch. You stole my

47:34

recipe for, you know,

47:37

whatever, potato salad. And

47:39

they will argue with each other. They'll talk

47:41

about people who stole somebody's bike. But

47:44

then, on the other end, and I think that letter

47:46

touched on it, I stop

47:48

looking at it when I see obvious

47:51

biases and things that

47:54

are not as fun that

47:56

neighbors are talking about, or like, their

47:59

profiling. someone around their area.

48:02

Oh, okay. Oh, you know,

48:04

I saw, you know, so and so that kid that

48:06

keeps walking around the neighborhood and

48:08

it's probably just a kid walking around the neighborhood.

48:10

Right, because they live there. Yeah, and you're

48:13

just mad because you're sitting out there with

48:15

your, you know, certain flags out

48:17

front of your house and you're sitting on your porch doing nothing

48:20

but like next door apping people. I

48:22

think that's what it is. Oh, look at this one says

48:24

Halloween. The other one said happy. Is it a sticker?

48:27

Oh my God. Oh, baby. I'm saving them. I'm

48:30

saving them. Okay, so let's see this instead. I'm gonna

48:33

put this out there

48:40

so you can enjoy this account. Yes,

48:43

God.

48:51

Delta,

48:54

you saved my life. The

48:56

pod is so correct. Do

48:59

you have hemorrhoids? Because I do. And

49:01

let me tell you, they are not so fierce.

49:05

Now, I'm very self conscious as a bottom. I refused

49:08

my I've refused my boyfriend sex for two

49:10

weeks. And I'm scared he might cheat on me

49:12

if I don't offer him my

49:14

whole soon. Please help

49:17

save my relationship and my sex. Loyf.

49:20

Delan. Delan. Delan.

49:23

Delan with the pile. Delan. I

49:26

am comfortable to tell you

49:28

that I do not have hemorrhoids

49:31

currently and I have not had them in the past. I'm

49:33

not gonna say that I won't get them in the future because

49:36

I think anything that is anything's

49:40

possible, you know, you

49:43

are dancing in the eyes of love. So

49:45

you're you know, if your partner is

49:48

requiring that of you and one

49:50

fat from you, I mean, I

49:52

don't know if you've just not had the conversation with them.

49:54

I think if this is your partner, I think

49:57

any conversation should be available.

50:00

available to one another. Don't you think? I

50:02

mean, they've been inside of you. Nothing should

50:04

be off limits. Right. And I don't feel like,

50:07

I mean, I think, you know, there's things like chair

50:09

air, a hemorrhoid, bad

50:12

breath. Yeah. I

50:15

think there's things that are legitimately

50:18

embarrassing because we've been told

50:20

that we should be embarrassed by them. Right. But

50:23

I don't think, I mean, if this is happening, maybe he's

50:25

sitting on a lot of cold seats. I'm

50:27

telling you. But you know what? It's

50:30

not, obviously, that is nothing to be

50:32

ashamed of in any way, shape, or form. It's just a thing

50:34

that happens. And it's

50:36

a very common thing, especially if I'm

50:38

not mistaken. I may be coming from a place of ignorance.

50:41

But especially when you have a lot

50:43

of fun back there, that can be, you know, something

50:45

that happens. And I say, have

50:47

that conversation, tell them, hey,

50:50

maybe, I don't know, maybe you

50:52

want to flip around and take

50:54

a world around and marry, go around one time. But

50:58

are you sure that there are hemorrhoids or are

51:00

they anal warts? Because they could be anal warts.

51:02

Well, that's the thing. I mean, you don't know

51:04

until you get it between your teeth and just ... Or

51:07

is it a skin tag in your asshole? You're it.

51:10

There are ... You can tie a hair around those. I've

51:13

heard you get a hair. I

51:15

would say probably a real

51:17

hair, not synthetic. Tie it around

51:19

there, pull it really tight, it'll die

51:22

and it'll fall off. It'll die. That's

51:24

like a Mexican kind of remedy thing.

51:28

This is Brujeria. Oh, it is. You

51:30

know where it fits right into the Halloween, the dichotomy of anal

51:33

warts and skin tags. Listen

51:36

from your witchy aunties here. It's nothing

51:38

to be embarrassed about. It is something that you

51:40

need to take care of. It is something you

51:42

should be honest about. And if he is bothered

51:45

by this or even if it's like

51:47

slightly an ick, you know, like, oh,

51:49

God, that's a red flag, tell him to fuck off.

51:52

And even when my hole is pristine, you're

51:54

not getting any of it because you regret ... If

51:56

you do not accept me at my worst,

52:00

Maybe you do not deserve

52:02

my absolute best and this hole

52:05

is good. And even when

52:07

it's wounded, you're not going to,

52:09

if you don't want to take care of that hole when it's

52:11

sick, why would you get to party with

52:13

it when it's perfect? Absolutely. Fuck

52:16

off. Dylan, your

52:18

hole is too good. Your hole is beautiful.

52:21

It might be a little bumpy right now, but that's okay. The

52:23

road is bumpy before it gets smooth. You know,

52:25

that's the thing. If he doesn't want it, like

52:27

you said, at its perceived worst,

52:30

then he doesn't deserve it at his best. Come

52:33

on. How did this podcast go by so

52:35

fast? Really? We're done. We're

52:38

done. This is it. Oh. Why

52:42

is there a bobby pin in my wig? What

52:48

would I have worn this for? I don't know.

52:51

I don't know why you have a bobby pin. I don't know. I

52:53

don't bobby pin my wigs to anything. My wigs just sit

52:55

there. You know what I mean? Yeah.

52:58

What

52:58

do you think that is?

53:00

Anyway. Yeah.

53:03

Where can people find you on social media? My

53:37

social media on across most platforms is

53:40

at Big Dlish. B-I-G-D-E-E-L-I-S-H.

53:44

And consequently speaking, so is my Venmo.

53:47

So if you see fit to give a girl a couple

53:49

dollars, I'd take that too because I'm poor as hell. You

53:51

are poor as hell. You are so

53:54

poor. Thank you for having me. You are

53:56

not poor, bitch. No, I don't look

53:58

poor, but. Right. You look poor,

54:00

but you're not, no, you don't look poor. Can

54:03

I just tell you, like, just a bit of

54:06

little story, I know you'll probably cut this out,

54:08

however, I promise you,

54:10

you were hitting on how fast you were able to do those

54:12

three minute monsters, Big D

54:14

will go from zero to

54:17

that right there in

54:19

maybe, maximum, maximum, 15 minutes.

54:22

I mean, if she has two hours, she'll spend

54:24

two hours, she doesn't want to, because she wants to go

54:26

chill out and have a cocktail or something, but

54:29

you really can, you're the person,

54:31

like, I can get a face on in 15 minutes, but

54:34

it's not that. You can get that

54:36

on in 15 minutes, and it's that

54:38

theory, that goes back to Hunter, remember Hunter? That

54:41

would just get a blush brush and go whoosh, whoosh,

54:43

and then carve it out, and you would never know, because once the

54:45

lash sits on it, maybe it's stage

54:47

ready. Absolutely, and that

54:50

Hunter was absolutely

54:52

an amazing artist at that. Like, it's

54:54

about the big picture, not the little pieces

54:57

that make us up. Join

54:59
