Episode 59: Drop Dead Gorgeous + Dame Edna + Lypsinka
When Sasha Belle, standing there in a nude illusion that is neither nude nor much of an illusion, meekly tells Ru, "I think I misunderstood the assignment," she's actually quoting a deep cut from "Drop Dead Gorgeous." Which is only one of the many connections the 1999 cult classic has to drag. We dive into the subtext and nuance (of course) of the pitch black satire of the American dream and the pageant system, plus give some much-deserved love to a couple legendary queens, discuss our mothers' love for The Birdcage and take pictures of Johnny's cat sleeping in a KitNip box.
