"An Emergency With Our Closest Friend" (w/ Cole Escola)

5/22/2024
Broadway. You don't get bigger than THAT. And today's Las Cultch guest, gleaming diamond of the culture Cole Escola, is headed there, honey. "Oh, Mary!" is the show AND the moment, and Matt & Bowen welcome its star and playwright to discuss reasons for dick appointment cancellation, how it might actually be the time for our civilization to end, and whether or not 45 deserves a turn to *dazzle* on Broadway. All this, Cole's refusal to discuss the Met Gala, the time Bow and Cole saw a Dutch production of Les Miz, new Nicholas Galitzine theories, the best bathroom cruising and birding locations, and the question of whether or not our assholes are the same color as our lips. Also, dream casting for the future of Oh, Mary!, pills, how to battle giardia when it hits your household, theme party etiquette, a lot of tension and a ton of other fucking nonsense. You wanted Cole?! Well, they're here, queer and USED to it (hearing how much Matt and Bowen love them). See Oh, Mary! at the Lyceum starting in June! 12 Weeks Only!

You know the old wives tale! The summer gets to start two months early because DUA LIPA is on Las Culturistas! The one and only talks to Matt & Bowen about creating the new album Radical Optimism, headlining Glastonbury, getting that google cal together, doing double duty on SNL, and having the best god damn taste.

"Nicole Wants An Awful Psychic" (w/ Nicole Byer)

3/27/2024
Fashion! Politics! Entertainment! This episode of LC kind of has all those things! What it definitely has is best in the biz guest Nicole Byer! Nicole and the boys get into how we'd do the pandemic differently, escape room techniques, how all male flight attendants are gay, reveal the REAL MCU, and anticipate Cowboy Carter just days before its release. Also, what it feels like to fly in a film, selling the joke, Goodfellas, Oda Mae Brown culture, Christian Siriano, Jenifer Lewis's recent accident and recovery, how Madame Web was maybe good, how Fed Ex can kinda suck and the battle between water based and silicon based personal lubricant. All this, and Nicole demands Matt give her the information of a bad, harmful psychic that made him distrust Bowen Yang. Go see The American Society of Magical Negroes in the CINEMA!
