    "Nicole Wants An Awful Psychic" (w/ Nicole Byer)

    "Nicole Wants An Awful Psychic" (w/ Nicole Byer)

    Fashion! Politics! Entertainment! This episode of LC kind of has all those things! What it definitely has is best in the biz guest Nicole Byer! Nicole and the boys get into how we'd do the pandemic differently, escape room techniques, how all male flight attendants are gay, reveal the REAL MCU, and anticipate Cowboy Carter just days before its release. Also, what it feels like to fly in a film, selling the joke, Goodfellas, Oda Mae Brown culture, Christian Siriano, Jenifer Lewis's recent accident and recovery, how Madame Web was maybe good, how Fed Ex can kinda suck and the battle between water based and silicon based personal lubricant. All this, and Nicole demands Matt give her the information of a bad, harmful psychic that made him distrust Bowen Yang. Go see The American Society of Magical Negroes in the CINEMA!

    "One And A Half F*ck" (w/ Matt & Bowen)

    How wonderful life is now that a new pop girlie album is in the world. That album is Eternal Sunshine, and Las Cultch is deep-diving on the music as well as the Ari OF IT ALL. Matt and Bow also discuss the finales of both the Oscar season (aka The Oscars) and The Traitors. Also, a lil bit o' Dune, Royal Family nonsense, Madonna in concert, Problemista, Oh, Mary!, inseam culture, the problem of pants, and how Final Fantasy 7: Rebirth is actually so good it's inconvenient.

    "GAYFIGHT" (w/ Matt & Bowen)

    "GAYFIGHT" (w/ Matt & Bowen)

    On fair Las Cultch, where we set our scene: It's Matt's birthday, Bowen is straight and there is culture to be caught up on. Traitors is recapped, Kristen Johnston is praised, and what truly makes a great sequel is debated. All this, Beyoncé's acting era, recent Bravo legal drama, and Drag Race thoughts. Also, is "insecurity" being overused as an excuse? Is Boba Fett just a big bitch? Did YOU vote? Much to discuss this week on LAS CULTURISTAS... the PODCAST! It's about to be a-- what?!-- gayFIGHT!

outstanding humor, brilliant duo

do not find many shows amusing, this one a breath of fresh air with the exception of many of their guests, whose lack of a sharp wit next to these two erudite minds becomes something of a turnoff. all exclusively matt+bowen episodes are casually perused with great gratitude for the positive energy even when personal issues might encourage a darker stance. TY, great work update: still “fine” w the matt character but increasingly find his voice grating on my nerves probably because his aggressively manipulative phony-ism has become kinda nauseating….. another update: listening to earlier episodes I’ve come to the sad conclusion: it’s all a bunch of unlistenable nonsense

At a transition

Have listened before, dropped off, returned after that viral Tina Fey excerpt about authenticity. I think they’re really struggling with that. In a recent episode they tell everyone to take it easy on Bowen’s friend Ariana but then go really hard on Kate Middleton as if she’s devoid of humanity. Didn’t you just say to avoid harshly criticizing public figures when you don’t really know what’s going on in their lives? But then they insist that they’re not treating Ariana differently now cuz she’s a close friend of Bowen’s. I think it’s human to treat someone more compassionately once you’ve become close, but I find it off-putting that they deny they’re doing so.

Matt and Bowen are the best ❤️

Matt- I am screaming as you talk about “Heart and Souls” with Bowen and Mandy!!! This is my all-favorite movie, and NOBODY has ever heard of it …until now!!! Thanks for validating my feelings 😜
