From Miami to Mykonos, she has built a drag dynasty. Host, performer, drag mother, and now a queen of Season 18 of RuPaul's Drag Race, it's Athena Dion!

Athena looks stunning and snatched as she opens up about creating the legendary House of Dion and reveals how she chooses her daughters, including fan favourites Morphine Love Dion and Plane Jane — two queens who couldn't be more different.

We also get into what it was like watching both of them compete together on Drag Race before she ever stepped into the Werk Room herself.

Then there's the history-making moment: Athena became part of the franchise's first grandmother-granddaughter lip sync. She shares how she found out the lip sync was coming, what was going through her mind in that emotional moment, and why Drag Race ultimately shattered her own glass ceiling.

We also dive into dating, whether she'd ever hook up with a fan, balancing boy life and drag life, and why finding love took a back seat to chasing her biggest dream.

Plus, Athena weighs in on toxic queer fandom, queer joy versus queer hate, local drag communities, and the importance of supporting queens beyond television.

And because it's THiRSTY BOYS, things get chaotic: Miami versus Mykonos, who's the trade of the season, who'd survive a Dion Lalaparuza, and which queens are most likely to get arrested.

Funny, thoughtful, and always unfiltered, this episode shows exactly why Athena Dion is the mother of one of drag's most iconic families.

Pangina Heals is one of the most recognizable drag artists in the world and after this conversation, you'll understand why she's so much more than just a Drag Race icon.

We sit down with Asia's most famous drag queen to talk about her new documentary, HEALS, a deeply personal project filmed over three years that explores her career, family, identity, and the complicated relationship she has with her mother.

Pangina opens up about growing up, navigating expectations, repairing family relationships, and why so much of her drive comes from pain, pressure, and perseverance.

Of course, it wouldn't be a Pangina interview without plenty of chaos.

We discuss everything from hosting versus competing on Drag Race, memorizing 60 songs for UK vs The World, coaching Miss Thailand contestants, the cutthroat world of pageants, ghost stories, clown chasers, drag hookups, and whether older queens still have a place on modern Drag Race.

Along the way, Pangina shares some of the funniest stories we've ever heard on the podcast — from raccoons and witch doctors to black magic.

And don't forget the GAYMES! We ask her all about her UK vs. The World and Drag Race Live! Vegas cast including who she's closest to.

Her wit is unmatched, her perspective is refreshing, and her ability to switch from heartfelt vulnerability to absolute nonsense in seconds is exactly why audiences around the world love her.

Whether you've followed Pangina since Drag Race Thailand, UK vs The World, or you're discovering her for the first time, this episode captures the intelligence, humor, and heart that have made her a global drag superstar.

Trust us: you need to watch this one to fully understand the phenomenon that is Pangina Heals.

Two fitness trainers, one drag queen, and zero filter. This week Frankie is joined by THE OG'S. Canada's Drag Race Season 1 star Juice Boxx and Barry's trainer Cammy Franny (Cam Francis) for an insightful, honest, and hilarious episode. THE CHEMISTRY WAS CHEMISTRYING.

What starts as a conversation about baldness and Ne-Yo's very public polyamory situation spirals fast. We get into peptides, testosterone, and this Ozempic era. And what all of that means when you're a drag queen who also lifts. Juice Boxx gets candid about navigating life as Joe AND Juice Boxx, saying yes to everything in the triple threat career, and what it actually takes to balance drag with fitness. Cammy opens up about the real physical expectations that come with being a trainer in gay spaces, the straight guy clients, and the "be you, f**k you, or hate you" philosophy he swears by.

And don't forget about RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 11. These two guests do NOT hold back. We discuss this very interesting... format, we make our picks for who's advancing and get some insight on the WeHo Drag scene.

And we of course wrap up with our GAYMES including: the worst gym etiquette offenders ranked, who's more intimidating — a spin instructor or a drag queen — and a Marry Hook Up Block round that went fully off the rails.

STAY THYRSTY.
