Show Notes
Well, fishing season is upon us! And you know what that means; it's time for Brandi Carlile on Las Culturistas! But, honestly? Wow. The bonafide superstar and truly great artist joins Matt + Bowen to discuss discovering gay life and dating in Seattle, how shameless dramatic grunge and rock and roll influenced her sound and the fact that Grey's Anatomy really did change it all. Also, hanging out with Joni Mitchell while she rips into the pop girlies, queer culture intersecting with country music in the 90's in a huge way, and what Brandi thinks about what's happening in our seas, globally. All this, a condemnation of high-five dodgers, what it's like to date British and the time she was summoned to the table-side of one Mariah Carey to fix her bra strap. Stream Returning To Myself.

Popular culture’s Ariana Madix is finally on Las Cultch! She does it all, so she DISCUSSES it all with Matt + Bow this week, including playing Connie Francis in Just In Time on Broadway and puttin’ the nasal twang in her voice to do so, being “friends with” tons of Disney characters (IYKYK) during her storied Orlando tenure, and taking her rightful place as the Rod Serling of our generation as the Emmy-nominated host of the biggest and most viral reality show in the world, Love Island. Also, walking in slo-mo without doing too much, the impact of good old fashioned Nick At Nite classics like I Love Lucy and Bewitched, and learning to be okay with being misunderstood by the public. All this, and the emotional lore that connects Matt + Bowen, the set of Wicked, Ariana Madix and Chappell Roan. Ariana just extended her stay with Just In Time, so get thee to the Circle In The Square! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Hold Matt + Bowen’s one purse that they share, because it is time for the FINAL WORD on the Kelly Clarkson vs. Art of Play fiasco. Today, an unpacking of October 2026’s unlikeliest celebrity feud, and how Kelly Clarkson somehow had the most controversial autumn of anyone in media. Also, Bowen walks us through why they really say “AI isn’t going anywhere”, rave reviews for Troye Sivan’s incredible new album She’s The Best, and… comparative literature on Las Cultch? Kind of! Matt saw The Social Reckoning and Digger and has thoughts. All this, the shit gay guys say and do on dates, shopping Julia Fox’s closet on accident for a good cause, how Bowen once disappointed Rosalía, and the definitive Top 5 Witches of Pop Culture. Somewhere, we just know that Molly is singing two words today, “Las Culturistaaaaaas!” *boom* See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Nyack legend and Actual legend Edy Modica joins Matt + Bow for her first Las Cultch appearance, and that means? You are about to see her in one of her episodes. The three old pals talk nut video preferences, gross guys with gross stories, and Perez Hilton. Also, the vibes of The Olive Garden, taking AP classes without being an AP student, what it means to be a “cradle robber”, and the pride in being a “Fag Hag”. All this, the big blue vein of the tit, Just Duty, and “hitting” culture. Edy is obsessed with violence, eating ass and finding the truth, and she would like you to watch her special “I’m Just Like You And It Sucks” on YouTube, the biggest and best streamer.
