What's it like to be in love? That question is answered in this installment of Las Cultch with Ben Platt! The superstar takes a break from his stunning run at the Palace on Broadway to discuss making his new album Honeymind, give inspired thoughts on the recent pop girlie landscape, and explain what Nashville is like. Also, a Noah Galvin cameo, the Presidential Fitness Test, being a consistent patron of the arts, and insight into the upcoming film WICK'T (sp?) from those on the inside. All this, party motivators, the combination of LSD and Maggie Rogers, barbecue in theory vs. barbeque in practice and how the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City has altered Palm Springs gay bar demographics. Stream Honeymind! We love BEN.

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!

Get into it!

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. Also, the time Katy Perry pulled a 15 year old Dua on stage to dance to "I Wanna Dance With Somebody", saying YES to the deluxe edition, the experience of becoming blonde, and the drag queens lipsyncing Dua's songs on RuPaul's Drag Race. All this, the crisping drawer, how sometimes people can be like "Vanderpump Rules!" and a response to the critics who say Dua is "always on holiday".
