Alright Mary: All Things Rupaul's Drag Race

As soon as we both saw Hannah Gadsby's "Nanette," we knew we needed an entire episode to discuss... Get in touch!

Everybody say love! This week, we head back to the southeast Asian workroom as the remaining nine queens (well, nine once Morrigan comes back from having a terrible time in the bathroom) say "I Do" to themselves in a recreation of the Season 2 "Here Comes the Bride" photoshoot challenge before giving variations on the theme of "the power of love" on the runway. Apparently, that means being pregnant, resulting in this season's version of Kimonogate.

Before we officially close out the season, enjoy some nuanced BONUS content, Mary! Here is the extensive runway rundown we did with the queens from Grizzly Kiki during our Season 10 finale joint recap. Looks looks looks!

Before we say goodbye to a season that has truly been a production, often an ooh-ahh sensation, and occasionally quite brown cow stunning, we celebrate our favorite looks, quotes, moments, queens, and of course nuances of Season 10, and discuss what we'd love to see happen in future seasons. Facts are facts, America--this season may have not always known its words, and its wig may have fallen clear off its head at times, but you've got to give to Season 10: it, nevertheless, still wiggled. (And it also gave us Monique Heart!)

Let's have a kiki, Mary! We've invited the queens from the Grizzly Kiki podcast over to recap the finale of what has been a marathon of a season!

It’s family reunion time at RuPaul’s Drag Race, and let’s just say, sh*t got real. It truly is Asia O’Hara’s Drag Race when she stands up to Ru in The Vixen’s defense, reminding us once again that beyond the glitter and glam, this is supposed to be a community of people. Tears are shed with Dusty and Monique, Vanjie reminds us that she’s so much more than a catchphrase, Kalorie eats popcorn from a sandwich bag, Mayhem creates screen time for herself when none is given and Kameron is crucified in the 11th hour for her coyness. We of course spend a significant portion of this episode dissecting Ru’s interactions with Asia and The Vixen and where things went astray.

Oh beautiful for spacious skies, Mary! The final challenge is upon us fooling nobody with any suspense of the outcome. But we gotta let the kids play, right? Hate all you want on this follow-through episode, but we insist on its importance. We go deep into how these queens are positioned before the live finale, celebrate arguably the most important segment RuPaul’s Drag Race offers to its viewers, and Colin recounts meeting a rather grand “friend” in the lovely Fort Lauderdale, Florida. We're almost done with this season. Who do you *want* to win?

Episode 107.5: NUANCE - "Pose" Premiere + "The Boys in the Band" on Broadway by Colin & Johnny

Episode 107: Drag Race Season 10 - Evil Twins by Colin & Johnny

To quote the legendary Gia Gunn, we're just taking a little trip to Asia and landing like fresh tilapia on Drag Race Thailand! With a week off from Season 10, we're getting a head start on this little biddi-biddi TV show's southeast Asian sister by diving into the first episode. We still don't know who wins, but there are a few queens we're already excited about. (To say nothing of "big mama" Natalia Pliacam!) We also go on a tangent about gay cruises, Drag Race music cues, campy competitiveness and Project Runway Season 10 contestants. Our apologies for the sound this week, we only realized after recording that our mic's really failed us. Nevertheless, we wiggled!

In this week's NUANCE, we discuss this week's episode of Untucked, some thoughts on Hurricane Bianca 2, reacting to The Great British Bake Off, plus we condragulations to our Mary's in Ireland and get a whole rack of love from the UK.

Six camera ready social media mavens make for good TV in this season's makeover challenge. Cracker finally catches a break with Miss Cookie, who joins the legion of breakout makeovers (like Sarge...). We look back on previous season's narrators, spend an inordinate amount of time talking about ugly crying, theorize about the future of Miss Vanjie, thirst for Chester See and ponder a season without our bespectacled narrator as we say a fond farewell to Monet X Change.

In this week's NUANCE, we dive into this week's Untucked, and specifically focus on Kameron Michaels and what her story and significance on the show is, the importance of seeing a successful introvert on television and why the other queens are pushing her to open up.

In Breastworld, all your fantasies can come true--so long as those fantasies involve Bingo and something to do with chicken. Despite a questionable script for this week's acting challenge, Aquaria finds her niche as a relatable robot (which has sort of been Miz Cracker's thing this whole season, right?) while Kameron struggles with human emotions altogether. Monet wears even less hair on the runway, Eureka taint afraid of no splits in the lip sync and Cracker gets crumbs from the judges once again.

In this week's Nuance, we take a deeper dive into who we think Kameron Michaels really is, explore how Eureka's size might influence people's opinions of her and try to decode Aquaria.

Wagon Wheel Watusi, Mary! The queens are channeling their inner Chad Michaels to bring us Cher through the ages in this season's live singing Rusical. But first, we queen OUT on Asia's chat with The Vixen in the workroom. We also discuss Aquaria's long con, who really should have won this week and disagree on the amazingness of that lip sync. Plus: Mario Kart strategies, Billy Eichner fantasies and the nuances of air instruments done right (if that's possible).

In this week's Nuance, we discuss the post-Snatch Game Untucked--specifically The Vixen and the subtext of her anger. Get in touch, Mary! Twitter: @alrightmary Email: alrightmarypodcast@gmail.com Patreon: patreon.com/alrightmary www.alrightmary.com

Well blank me silly, Mary--it's Snatch Game! The top 7 have made it to the heart of the season--and for the Heart of the Season, it's the end of a tough road. (But nevertheless, she wiggled!) We celebrate Monique Heart a little more before turning our attention to this season's panel of celebrity guests. Aquaria's Melania was surprisingly nuanced, while Asia's Beyonce was more Mommie Dearest than Sasha Fierce, with her sights set on The Vixen's not fully realized Blue Ivy. But the real drama is on the runway when Ru stokes the fire by asking who should go home this week... Get in touch, Mary!

In this week's Nuance, we talk about the importance of Blair St. Clair telling her story and our thoughts on trauma healing and the effects of abuse in the queer community. We also spend a few minutes on what's been going on with Tyra Sanchez and give some more love to "Whimsically Volatile."

Proportionize, Mary! And productize! The queens are creating fantasy DragCon panels and learning what it really takes to pay your rent as a Ru girl. Monet and Eureka are something of a dream team, while Miz Cracker reads Blair to filth but forgets to read the room first. Meanwhile, Monique Heart is running away with this entire season and isn't getting nearly enough credit for it. We explore what Kameron's real backstory is, digest that air instrument incident that happened during the lip sync, and send Ms. St. Clair off with a thoroughly modern Last Chance Lip Sync.
