- This week, the Loch Ness Monster of drag herself, Raja, visits the studio to discuss love, yoga, and wistful nostalgia for physical media porn. Many questions are posed and even fewer are answered. Does Raja exist? Do you exist? Is free will available to humanity in our desperate search for some semblance of personal and/or societal development? Or is it all an illusion, a minute portion of the complex ruse through which we spend every waking moment of our lives? I ask you this one question: does anyone really, truly exist? Probably not. But put that crisis aside for a moment and listen to this episode, because it's charming and entertaining and it will make you forget about the ceaseless march towards your inevitable demise for about an hour, and that's something.

About the Podcast:
The Bald and the Beautiful with Trixie and Katya features a pair of grizzled gay ghouls sitting on chairs, holding microphones, and discussing their fabulous lives in Tinseltown. (featuring occasional forays into movies, television shows, and air-conditioning) The New York Times called them models, moguls, actors, influencers, drag queens, RuPaul's Drag Race contestants, and even humanoids. If one thing can be said about these two preternaturally gorgeous queens' podcast, it's that Trixie and Katya find the sheer, unadulterated beauty of pure insanity. Tune in every week to experience the auditory pleasure that is The Bald and the Beautiful with Trixie and Katya.

Katya has been killing it as an interviewer and host! Between the grindr pod that’s back with more episodes and taking over the bald and the beautiful with guests, she’s been doing an amazing job.
she has and im so thankful bc it really proved those ridiculous fans that kept saying she got back to work too soon after she get done with rehab very wrong.
hope shes getting all the coin
agreed!!
Honestly love to see this for her and I hope nothing is stressing her out, I was just thinking about this like she even mentioned she was feeling nervous about doing alone….. and mama has been serving us GRADE A CONTENT I’m glad someone said it
hol up, it says video was released 4 hours ago, your comment is 15 hours ago. Mama, I didn't go to school for math but this ain't mathing.
Imagine my shock, disappoinment and heartbreak when I realized the epidose ended without a fingers for language question.
I wish I had Raja's whole energy and vibe. I haven't seen her out of drag often and I refuse to believe she's 50. There is some sorcery going on with Miss Gemini.
WHAT!!!!! 50!? like the timeline checks out but i literally cannot believe that looking at her what the fuuuuck
she is proving to me that age is literally just a number lol
Sorcery ( 💉) 😂
Maybe Yall should broaden your expectations of 50?
I wish everyone had a Raja in their lives. Someone this funny, talented, kind, GORGEOUS, motherly, and genuine.
I laugh every time a guest mentions astrology, cause Katya can't talk shit about it with them (only with Trixie) and they're so into it, and she's just there...taking it lol
Always looking for the smirky look on Katya's face 🤌🤌🤌
I think about this EVERY time lol
Haha I just watched her on Drew Afaulos podcast and the same thing happened. It happens to her a lot because everyone in LA is obsessed with astrology lol
I think she appreciates people’s obsession, she just doesn’t believe it.
I feel like she could be more into it if she wanted to be. But, back to astrology, lol, most of the people who talk about it with her are the "thoughty", "analytical" and research-prone air signs hahaha. Aka Gemini’s.
No cutting off fingers for languages!? Damn. Rapidly becoming one of my favorite questions
I was just wondering when will she ask theee question but its almost over😢
I was waiting for Katya to ask because I would’ve loved to hear Raja’s answer
Omggg you're right I thought it was becoming a staple 😢
I would choose ASL
Dune era is also over I'm afraid
In and out of drag, there's something so...otherwordly...about Raja. Just listening to her talk about any subject relaxes and intrigues me.
Her voice is like silk ❤
These guests have been giving me life. Raja is one of my absolute all time favorites. And Jinkx last episode? This is christmas.
Same girl same!
And it's more like we got Jinkx for Christmas and Raja for our birthday! 💕🌵
"World's Coolest Drag Queen" might be the most fitting title/alias for Raja, tbh.
I came on here to say this she is MAGNETIC and I am obsessed with her.
Absolutely ❤
I've been LOVING these podcasts lately. Katya is such an incredible interviewer!
Have you seen her show on the Grindr channel?
Courtney Act's interview caused me to fall asleep. Must get funny guests.
@@lauranydb7979I agree. I thought Courtney's interview was mediocre at best
@@lauranydb7979 Courtney Act has always given kinda fakey, definitely boring. One of those queens that's always "on" and overthinks every move.
I would pay a lot of money to attend a yoga class led by Katya you can tell she’s really good.
YES
I hope I'm not spamming! My comment keeps getting deleted so I copied it to repost because I think you'd be interested in Katya's yoga 3D video. I don't know why that's getting deleted and I'm sorry if it's actually showing up on your screen multiple times.
Katya shines always and love Trixie, but between the grindr pod and handling this, Katya has more than proved she can shine even w/o Trixie. Raja is also so great.
Katya was a fan favourite on season 7, she could always do it by herself
I could listen to Raja talk all day. Raja’s voice is so soothing.
I would absolutely love it if Raja were to read any romance novel or novella. Her voice would be so perfect for that, I'm going to start a petition Raja for Romance Novels!
Or just her sitting st home doing some ASMR videos in her pj's sipping a glass of chardonnay.
Cheers Raja you rock!🍷🍸🧉🍶
This episode just wasn't long enough. I could watch these two banter all day. I love Roger & Katy!
Loveeee Katy.
Raja is so unbelievably royal and regal her and Bebe probably exemplify this the most of any of the winners. She just commands the room, not even trying to be the center of attention she just is, you can’t help but want to be in her orbit.
These have been bringing back to peak Whimsically Volatile - I love hearing Katya interviewing, esp her banter w the other queens
I was JUST thinking this!
Oh i would LOVE to have her and Gia again bc their episode on Whimsically Volatile was SOOOOO good
oof this was a throwback but you're so right !
Never really thought about it but Raja and Katya actually have a lot in common, it was fun to see them chat
raja is such an icon - an artist, model, queen & cosmetologist. love her humility and how much she supports the drag race community while still maintaining that edge and honesty
also this sex positive talk is so refreshing
Can I just say, the tribal look from Raja's original season changed my perspective entirely on life and drag. It was the first time when I understood that there were no limits when it came to drag and femininity, and there are no boundaries when it comes to our creativity. To this day, it is still my favorite look from the entire show.
No bore worms detected. 10s across the board!!! We need an extended version of this episode.
miss roger is my fav queen of all time 😭i’m sat
SO REAL
Saaame her look and energy is sooo perfect
I have nothing to prove this but I feel like one good long high chat with Raja and Katya would fix my life
You know what I absolutely love about Raja? She said she only posts once a month over on the place I can't mention or my comment will get deleted, but I CONSTANTLY see her liking the content of fellow creatives. She's so incredibly supportive in that way & it's touching!
It's crazy the amount of posts I see, not even from creatives/drag performers/celebrities, that Raja has liked. Just truly random posts lol
@@theCynicalChicken Yesss!
Anytime something insanely cool pops up on my feed, it's almost guaranteed it came from a Raja like! As if her own artistry wasn't enough, her likes are the gift that keep on giving lol
I love every guest so far has talked about astrology and have asked Katya her sign 💀💀
I would love this to be 3 hours. I could listen to them all day. Katya is doing such an amazing job interviewing!
"That's the one legged king pigeon pose" LMAOOOOO
Also these forced first date questions are still hilarious but even more so when Katya forgets and then goes "What's your favorite day of the week" 🤣🤣🤣
I love how well Katya is doing especially after all those fans that were saying she got back to work too soon after she finished rehab recently as if they knew what was best for her. You’re doing great mary ❤
She needs to work, she’s good at it too.
fr work probably helps a lot, she is a creative
If you dont release black diarrhea any time soon i will drop out of art school there's no point in making art without divine inspiration KATYA PLEASE I BEG YOU
Literally I think about that song every day
single of the decade being wrongfully withheld from us
Where’s the Grammy
@@tiki_vegaswhere’s the album?!?!?!
If you put in some effort, you can release black diarrhea yourself
What a treat! This is gonna be a great epi…More for Gemini
HAHAHAHAH those who get it, get it
Omfg this just made me cackle out loud. Thank you
Raja is such a natural and so honest. Love her. As someone who frequents Drag Clubs for years now, go barefoot cause it’s the performance we are there for. Safe your feet.
I have been waiting for this one!!! Raja’s such a great guest!! Katya is also an incredible solo host, she has chemistry with everyone
Seeing two people have so much respect and admiration for each other is so heart warming. Raja definitely made Katya blush a few times 😅❤
I am cackling at Raja comparing the cartoon and the wolf/seeing someone as a turkey leg and her having a meet n greet and seeing the fans as dollar signs. 😂😂😂 Love her!
Raja was my first drag queen. I found out the Top model gal was on drag race, and from there the interest in drag started. This is full circle.
Raja Gemini has always been my favorite queen. Her innovation and creativity in season three is just incredible. To hear her talk about it in a nonchalant way is cool and so unexpectedly nonchalant.
the little laugh in the background from whoever is in the audience is always my favorite addition to theses episodes! Love whoever that is!!
As a cis woman who has ZERO interest in ever being fîśtèd, I found it so sexy when raja described and gave visual representation of administering the 🤜 and also raja’s voice is so sultry…. Great episode with two icons that I love.
I'm right there with you! Raja is just a major PRESENCE and I could listen her speak on ANYTHING
Omg Raja’s voice is so soothing. I could listen all day everyday. ❤❤❤
The fact that Katya has had my fav queens consistently during this time when Trixie is away has been iconic!! 🎉
I consider Raja to be my cool fellow gemini rich aunt that I don’t see often but when I do she always has a funny crazy story to tell. Glad to see Raja’s doing good ❤
Not me screaming at the screen, "Billy Porter! It's Billy Porter!!!"
“Remember Perez Hilton???” 😂 I am deceased
LMAO~
I'm only a half hour in but I just had to stop and say THIS IS SO AMAZING I AM SO GRATEFUL AND I HOPE THE YOUNGER FANS TAKE THE TIME TO DIVE INTO EVERYTHING RAJA‼️ SHE IS A LEGEND AND I LOVE WHEN HER AND KATYA ARE TOGETHER BECAUSE THEY LOVE EACH OTHER AS MUCH AS WE LOVE THEM ‼️‼️😫😭🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👑🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
RAJA LOOKS SO BEAUTIFUL
I always wondered why the money ball was so good, it makes sense that Raja was a smart b and got the producers to let them work over the holiday/weekend.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME?? YOU GOT RAJA ON THE POD?? LOVE
I loved Raja on ANTM as a little kid. I can’t believe how fast time has gone by
I'm so happy Katya is slaying these pods with this amazing guests!
Also we miss you and love you miss Tracy!
Traci braxton?
@@afm3898 Exactly.
I genuinely can feel the absence in my life is that embarrassing oh well 🤣
Love love love so much Raja. She’s never stopped being my favorite drag queen, her style is awesome but her mind is out of this world. Love her sense of humor and references. Love how she’s now an older person and reacts as such. I just love her too too much.
1) Piling onto the Katya fucking KILLIN it w/ the interviews train & 2) UGH, I could listen to Raja talk about anything and everything, endlessly 😩
I've kinda .. Forgotten this is Katya.. Have teally grown to love THIS person just as much! Great job taking care of the pod over these past weeks!
the anticipation, the answer, Katya’s wheeze…😭😭😭 44:43
I fell over 😂
loving this, Katya THE Queen of podcasting story arc
This has really been Katya's Horoscope Exploration Pod. We should do MBTIs too, that psuedoscience tripe.
i love that the guest episodes always seem longer than the regular ones. I love our girls, but giving our mutual favs more time has yielded quite a few iconic moments already and it gives them more leeway to just let loose and make magic happen❤❤
I've been in love with Raja Gemini formerly known as Raja formerly known as Sutan since project runway. 🥰🥰🥰
Raja speaks to me in such a visceral way I respect them so much
The thing that stuns me about Plastique is that he has such full Boy Brows out of drag, but then in drag it's flawless WOMAN. What is the sorcery!!?
This is becoming "the elite of the elite podcast". Just look at the material. Look at the material !!
Katya is really holding down the fort while trixie is recuperating. The podcasts with all the guests has been a blast watching. Raja is the coolest person ever. You just want to sit on the porch swing with her blazing a joint🥰🥰
Raja and julia fox both becoming models for stores they shoplifted from as teens so 👸
Katya your guest choice is impeccable.
dare i say this is the best Bald and the Beautiful episode ever???????????????????????
Katya and Raja?! Two of my favorites together. I love it. Thank you both for sharing your stories with us. So much love to you both. ❤
i refuse to believe raja is 50 she has to be time traveling
Raja gives me sunset at the beach vibes everytine i see her, she literally gives me sunkissed goddess every time i see her and i live.
What a full circle moment for katya and Trixie to have her on the podcast, her and raven where the reason katya and trixie got put into one room to react to photos of them reacting to drag race so many years ago. Love to see it girl. ❤ 'where are the tshirt looks Mary' if you know you know.
Katya needs her own interview podcast & call it Katya and Komrades,
Katya has a solo podcast with grindr interviewing guests!
@@melellellie I was hoping she would be dressed up and the guests too mostly spotlighting drag performers
My All-Time Favorite… Raja… 💙 My top queens… Raja, Jinkx, Bianca, Bob & Monét, Trixie & Katya… Love to All… Thanks, Katya.
This episode is exactly what the world needed right now!!💋❤️
AHHHHH Raja my fave!!!!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ Always loved Raja’s spirit and energy 🥰
I love how excited Raja got about the favorite day of the week question 😂❤
Loving the interviews, Kayta is doing great!!… I miss just the chats and laughs between Trixie and Katya 💐💐💐💐
God I'm so in love with Raja 😅
same. i think she is the most beautiful of all the queens
i am so excited for mama raja gemini
“We gotta talk about top model”
“Mmmmmmmm do we?”
“Nooooo we don’t”
“We can?”
😂 I love these two together❤
I love their back and forth. This was so good! ❤
The vibe is right this ep
Raja’s energy with Katya is so relaxing in a weird way. Loooved!
I love you two just sharing and giving us life. I also, kind of wish the franchise would support drag queen seamstresses over the high end fashion houses, just to give us more queendom creativity and support more within the community and more sewing challenges but I know that you don't hold that responsibility but the universe might
now THAT was a podcast. thank you Roger for being not the Paragon we deserved, but the horny chanteuse we needed. extra points for making Katya blush
Cuntressa Fontaine De La Quoi needs to be my new drag name. Love you Raja and Katya! 😊❤
SO SO EXCITED for this episode!
I loved this episode with raja, I need a second one
42:50 I absolutely love it when Katya laughs like this, hahahahah ❣️
I was just about to time stamp this with no context 😂
I love this so much! Katya really is an amazing host/interviewer and Raja, I just adore so much. The energy, vibe, POV everything
Rajas daughter Aurora forte is iconic and I want her on drag race abs the pod !!! She’s a smaller queen but iconic
Not that I’m surprised at all but Katya is holding the pod to the same fucking level as when Trixie is here. Like I love their vibe together but Katya should feel so proud of being able to hold her own and making it fun to watch all on her own.
This is the most engaging and entertaining interview I’ve seen in a while. ❤
Kayta's skills as an interviewer are seriously beyond some Oprah Winfrey type shit!
Katya's really out here showing all of us at home all of her Creativity, Uniqueness, Nerve & Talent! 💯 it is on full display indeed...Since her ability to just chill and vibe with absolutely every fucking body, including but not limited to, your grammy, your auntie, your mama and your mammy and grand daddy (and their pets) is on a whole other level and I am fully here for it! 👏
Yet, there is no denying the chemistry between Kayta & Trixie, HOWEVER, Miss Tracey, if you really need some more time for yourself, do not hesitate to leave the B&B pod indefinitely in the more than fully capable hands of our gurl, one Miss Kathleen, because all of your friends, fans, and folks at home absolutely love seeing all of the different dolls on this appear on pod in particular.
Gurls, trust & believe you got us all gagged, gooped & gooning!
Nothing but pure & true L 💖 V E for all you bitches! 🤗🌵
Never realised what a gorgeous man Raja is! Loved this episode! Loveeee Pink. 🤪
Love how honest they are about their sexuality and preferences. More of this please ❤
GodDAMN raja looking FINE AFFF
That’s been my gripe with drag race. It used to showcase what drag was, but now it dictates what drag is
well i think that with the platform and audience it has now it’s become a showcase of quintessential professional drag. i absolutely love local drag and i don’t think the show has impacted people’s opinions who have a genuine love for and knowledge of drag and what it is at its core. of course it’s not for everyone and the older seasons are so iconic but i don’t think it’s fair to say that drag race dictates what drag is because i don’t think that is or ever has been the goal
@@yourdadjustcallsmekatya It may not have been the goal but it has been the result. If this was an organic change that would be fine. And it did start that way but ever since those early seasons where the queens were truly unique and doing those things for the sake of the art, they were doing it before drag race was a thing. it has become about articulating looks to up the previous seasons it’s become a regurgitation of its self queens now are going on having seen those looks basing their drag in that and trying to do one up it. It’s one thing to draw inspiration but what is happening is they are manufacturing them selves to be what is shown on Drag Race. That being said I love the show, and the queens are great. I just think capitalism got its hands on it it lil to much.
“We HAVE to talk about top model”
“Do we”
Raja my beloved, she is just amazing in everything she does ✨
I love Raja's voice. Could listen to him talk for hours. Hope he's back on the pod sometime (soon).
These Katya interviews got me saying "Tritsy who?". Killing it, Ms Katya
getting angry and feeling shame instantly is such an adhd thing
My forever fave. Started watching DR in season 3 and have loved Raja ever since. Loved this interview. Katya is the best when it comes to speaking with podcast guests.
I am here for Katya shinning during these times without Trixie. I love seeing her interview and listen to people. I just saw the Grindr pod with the Queen of Melrose and it was sooooo good! She’s doing amazing. ❤
Raja ✨fresh✨ of a keef joint is my spirit animal
