Las Culturistas with Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang

Piccolo-voiced culturista Matt Rogers is joined by his close friend, bassoon-throated actor Zane Phillips, on this episode of Las Culturistas to discuss being a lil academic smart girl, science fairs, hot coffee-and-crossword culture, and serving STEM at a young age. Also, coming up in the queer "scat pack" (lol noooo), playing against type when you are A Type, and why superhero movies are so washed out as of late. All this, America's Next Top Model and the act of transformation, Television Without Pity and recap culture, how Survivor has changed, how The Traitors should change, a rundown of playable Super Smash Bros. characters, a searing takedown of Mario Kart's Rainbow Road, and an honest discourse on the state of soup. Readers? We want to be culminated in you. And you will want to be culminated in THIS... episode! Of Las Cultch!

To be the star of a series called "Glamorous", you kinda have to have that X Facta, you see. And Miss Benny just so happens to have THAT to spare. She joins Matt (Bowen is on break!) on this episode of Las Cultch to discuss shooting Glamorous with a big old queer cast, the "Star or Actress" game, how Glee low key changed things, And Just Like That's return to our screens, the process of selecting a wig, "having that effect of people", nudity and how to correctly objectify men on TV. Also, America's Next Top Model shaping reality TV culture and introducing Miss Benny to Isis King, how no one could ever be Survivor's Parvati, and the question of whether or not we would fuck Santa. All this, pop girls getting shit thrown at them, social media changing and evolving (derogatory), and a re-telling of the time Matt and Miss Benny went to a talkback for Jessica Simpson's Open Book and PETA jumped out. Miss Benny is a superstar and Glamorous is a blast! Stream it now on Netflix.

No, this is not a joke. Kelly Clarkson is actually on Las Culturistas. Recorded in person on the day her new album Chemistry was released, the word’s greatest singer joins Matt & Bowen to talk about… well, everything! The new album, the old albums, the new life, the old life, touring, recording, medicating, parenting, living, laughing, sobbing, singing, loving and, of course, the submersible. It’s the Kelly interview to end all Kelly interviews. And we can’t believe we got her time. Stream Chemistry NOW. It is some of the best work of her career. Readers… it happened. It really happened.

What WE do in the shadows? We TALK to amazing people like Harvey Guillén, who joins Matt & Bowen on this terrific episode of Las Cultch to get into it on poppers culture, celebs being "on the A-list", the Met Gala and how Harvey celebrated but also lightly stuck it to Mr. Lagerfeld, Drag Race guest judging, Sasha Colby, shooting and auditioning for What We Do In The Shadows, Toronto cultures, rude men in fedoras, and navigating homophobia. Also, how Titanic and Kate Winslet gave way to Harvey's culture that made him say culture was for him: Peter Jackson, and the film Heavenly Creatures starring Kate and finalist Melanie Lynskey. All this, the origin of the middle finger, auditioning with Jerri Blank monologues, doing Wicked in Osaka, Japan, Hilary Duff's music, when you can really call yourself a New Yorker and the idea of wanting to smell like Johnny Depp.
