On The Second Day of Culture... November 11th, 2020: Mary M. Cosby Hits The World Stage

Well, it's Day 2 of the 12 Days of Culture and Las Cultch is discussing The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City's Mary M. Cosby-- OH WAIT SORRY, we meant Mary M. Culture. That may as well be her name, Bowen declares. Her style. Her presence. Her immediate impact. Your hosts map a Barbra Streisand-esque rise to fame narrative onto Salt Lake City's Great White Hope, and discuss how she has Bethenny potential. To put it bluntly, the boys believe that she could become an international mover and shaker from a leadership perspective. All that, gift-giving, collecting vinyl, and Matt tells a detailed story about a real life experience he had watching a star-making moment. Hey, have you consumed today? How seriously did you take that consumption? Are you doing this? Just some things to think about. See you tomorr(ow)!

Welcome to the Holidays, darling. Day 1 of our 12 episode series explores the fast food kingdom with those golden arches. Las Culturistas agree; "This was a day of cultural history, this gift." The girls discuss why McDonald's is culturally significant, how it relates to their stupid lives, and play Marry, Fuck, Kill with figures within the McDonald's canon. Do YOU think they should give two hash browns instead of one with McDonald's breakfast? Do you have a go-to meal or do you shake it up each time, order-wise? If you don't listen to this episode? Precious one, you're without.  Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

"I Don't Give a Rip!" (w/ Amber Ruffin)

Matt and Bow say "What!" Because the star of her own show on Peacock and all-around comedy savior Amber Ruffin is on the pod this week! Listen in as they share their near-closing thoughts on the latest episode of "The Undoing," as well as the ins and outs of Amber managing her writer's room from coast to coast.

"Max Out For Eliza!" (w/ Eliza Orlins)

Readers? There's a new damn president, as a matter of fact. And the Las Culturistas are sort of feeling America and wanting to help change New York City for the absolute better. For that reason the boys welcome Eliza Orlins, beloved Survivor icon and public defender. She's running for Manhattan D.A. and talks with LC about her plan to not simply reform but transform our racist criminal justice system to something that works for all New Yorkers once she is elected in June. Eliza shares how her years representing thousands of New Yorkers and taking on the current D.A. Cyrus Vance inspired her to run for his office. Also, getting your reality TV *MOMENT* in a tube top, how the literal culture that made her say culture was for her (Survivor!) ended up putting her on the map, and some general reactions to the fact that there is a new damn President, as a matter. of. fact. GRLLOOOOOO!!!!! Gonna have to celebrate... THAT one. Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

"Darn Barney The Dinosaur (Matt and Bowen Are High Again)"

Las Cultch gets a little spooky on this episode as Matt and sexual handlebar mustache icon Bowen are honest about and fully explore their addictions to social media. Ultimately, it's pretty evil, huh?

Also, an examination of shit-talk culture as a whole, the scary ads on Las Culturistas, 73 Questions culture, how Mitch McConnell looks like the walking dead, Bacon Egg and Cheese culture, the drama around pumpkin spice and a full review and discussion of Borat: Subsequent Moviefilm, a cultural moment in time that reveals a star in Maria Bakalova and a damn creep in Miss Rudy Giuliani.

"Matt and Bowen Get Too High"

What happened was, Matt and Bowen said "let's smoke on this episode" and then they forgot they were on a podcast and turned into soup. Learn about how Bowen angered the province of Quebec, how Matt was "the best bunter in the town of Babylon", how it feels to be so publicly gay in comedy, and listen as the Matt vs. Bowen on a plane to Chicago conflict is finally resolved. Also, a sketch Matt wrote from 2014 is read live, Bowen recalls a time he went off on two racist French Canadians at the age of seven. Somehow, the two find a way to touch on what, arguably, are their favorite LC topics (Tayla Swiff and porn) and, shockingly, an I Don't Think So Honey is performed mid-episode because one of our hosts can't hold it in. Welp! We hope you enjoy. Tickle, tickle! Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
