Bowen is a little sickstress this week, so he's invited Matt to his new home to record an episode of Las Cultch and contract whatever he has. Stanley cups in hand, the two discuss, well, pop cultural topics! "Such as?" you ask? Well, Chappell Roan and Troye Sivan's latest albums, RHONY, the "sweeps" TV culture of yesteryear, and an oversaturation of the espresso martini. Also, Bowen MET LADY GAGA, Matt has a haunted weekend in Long Island at the Chambers of Hell, and BOWEN MET LADY GAGA. All this, handwriting vs. typing, earnestness vs. earnesty, a live pop songwriting session, and the naming of the Actress of the Millenium. More like OCTOBER flush and OUR flannel cure (the flannel being this episode). Bye!

THE 2024 LCCA CATEGORIES

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".

"Taste!" (w/ Dua Lipa)

Because we love-love you all… here’s an extra serving of Las Cultch for you! ‘Cause what were we supposed to do, exactly? Not talk about Challengers? Zendaya’s latest with director Luca Guadagnino is a total bop and Matt & Bowen get all up into it. Also, publicists? This is your moment. On Friday, May 3rd, the categories for the Las Culturistas Culture Awards are announced. Use May to campaign! The nominees will be announced at the end of the month. So make your voice heard and let your freak flaggot fly! See you Wednesday….. when it will become clear that… training season’s over. OOP! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

“Challengaz ;)” w/ (Matt & Bowen)

A podcast episode that reflects events, opinions and sentiments from a fleeting and fatalistic moment in time; The Tortured Poets Department is out now. Matt & Bowen bare their souls in discussion. Also, 2013? Yeah. Culturally excavated. This period of the podcasters’ lives are now over, the chapter closed and boarded up… that’s that WE, Espresso!

"This Is What I Personally Believe" (w/ Matt & Bowen)

Hello m'donna's! It's smoke hour today on Las Cultch as weekend one of Coachella officially ceases. We got discussions of FLO, Reneé Rapp (with KESHA!), Victoria Monét, No Doubt (with Olivia Rodrigo!), Bleachers, Chappell Roan, Sabrina Carpenter, Doja Cat and LANA DEL REY (with Billie Eilish!). This episode also serves as a little love letter to Lana Del Rey from aspiring stans Matt Rogers & Bowen Yang. Also, the Teresa Giudice x Tayla Coachella pic and general Taylor vibes pre-Tortured Poets, Judy at Carnegie Hall, and some love for the new Maggie Rogers. All this, OJ Simpson being dead, the cast of MAD TV, the power of T-Pain, and the news of Dr. Dillamond's casting. Drop those shoulders <3 See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
