| 10/19/26 | Broad Shoulders, High Heels (w/ Monét X Change & BenDeLaCreme) | What's the most masculine thing about two of drag's most decorated queens? This week, Joel Kim Booster is joined by Monét X Change (Drag Race All Stars 4 winner, The Traitors) and BenDeLaCreme (Drag Race All Stars 3, The Jinkx & DeLa Holiday Show) to talk about all things masculinity—from GAY-ming and bar fights, to fatherly lessons involving studs. Plus the perils of hooking up in drag, mismatched sex drives in marriage, and the little known practicality of tennis balls in pools.

| 10/15/26 | BACKGROUND CHECK: Brooks Wheelan | It’s time for another Background Check! This week, Brooks Wheelan was on Intimacy Coordinator, so we wanted to replay the classic Bad Date story he told to Joel and fellow guests Ali Kolbert and Jared Goldstein. The original description for his story was: “Brooks can overlook the scabies, but can the scabies overlook Brooks?” and that’s still all you need to know. Enjoy revisiting this Bad (question mark?) Date, and don’t miss this week’s Intimacy Coordinator with Brooks and ace stand-up (slash his girlfriend) Katherine Blanford!

| 10/12/26 | Soggy Burritos That Nobody Wants (w/ Brooks Wheelan & Katherine Blanford) | Joel puts comedy couple Brooks Wheelan and Katherine Blanford on the couch for live couples therapy, starting with the eggs Brooks ate, the all-caps text Katherine sent about it, and why laughing at that text was not the move.

| 10/8/26 | BACKGROUND CHECK: Danielle Perez | Danielle Perez was on Intimacy Coordinator this week, so it’s time for another Background Check! Join us as we revisit two hilarious and harrowing tales that Danielle told Joel and fellow guests Bonnie McFarlane and James Tom back in the Bad Dates era! First off, this man is simply too close and his lips have not been deemed ADA accessible, and in the second story her date goes full Shark Week. Catch up with Danielle’s tales from the trenches, and don’t miss this week’s Intimacy Coordinator with Danielle, Tien Tran, and Solomon Georgio! Danielle Perez: @divadelux on socials, check her out in Ballard on Amazon | 16m 18s | ||||||
| 10/5/26 | Race Play (w/ Danielle Perez, Solomon Georgio & Tien Tran) | Joel Kim Booster convenes a panel of (at least) double minorities — Danielle Perez, Solomon Georgio, and Tien Tran — to dig into how intersectional identities shape who we date, who we marry, and who keeps asking us to role-play. The panel trades the backhanded compliments they took as wins, sheepishly admits to dating white people, and unpacks the bedroom requests that went too far, from a breaking-and-entering fantasy to a "spicy Latina" audition. Plus: the fight that ended with Joel totaling his car, and advice for a 60-year-old listener wondering just how age-appropriate she has to be.

| 9/28/26 | Grindr Lies (w/ Bob the Drag Queen, Meatball & Rheeqrheeq Chainey) | Joel Kim Booster assembles three of the world's most famous liars — Bob the Drag Queen, Meatball, and Rheeqrheeq Chainey — to settle what's fair game to fib about in sex and dating. Then Bob hands over her phone, and the panel puts her Grindr profile on trial: photo by photo, verdict by verdict — is Bob catfishing America? Plus: the smoothest bad-date escapes), the official wiggle room for height and weight, and why Bob only filters for 6'6" and up.

| 9/24/26 | BACKGROUND CHECK: Daniel Webb | We're kicking off a new series of bonus episodes where we revisit classic tales from our guests' past appearances, it's Background Check! Daniel Webb was on Intimacy Coordinator this week, so we wanted to replay his Bad Dates segment from 2024, alongside Joel, Zoë Chao, and Olivia DeLaurentis. In this clip, Daniel tells two stories, one about what it looks like when you randomly hook up with a guy who might have just won No Nut November, and another about an encounter ruined by showtunes and a parakeet. Daniel Webb: @thedanielwebb on socials, tickets at TheDanielWebb.com | 10m 13s | ||||||
| 9/21/26 | Living in Austin (w/ Daniel Webb, Vanessa Gonzalez & Martha Kelly) | Joel gathers three Austin-scene comics to dig into what dating (and drinking) in that city actually looks like — from bisexual bar culture and older closeted guys in the 2000s, to accidentally hooking up with conservative dates once you can't read the room anymore. Vanessa tells the story of playing hard-to-get, and Martha explains her theory on why "nice guy energy" always throws her radar off. We get into small-town-big-city dating, red flags you miss on purpose, and how a whole city's vibe can shift under you.

| 9/14/26 | New Parent Turn-Ons (w/ Natasha Leggero & Sabrina Jalees) | Joel sits down with the co-hosts of the parenting podcast Good Enough. They discuss what new turn-on has emerged in their partners since becoming parents, and it goes places. The group spirals into a full circumcision debate ("uncut energy," designer dicks, and whether Gen Alpha will be the first mostly-intact generation), then each names the four things they'd actually get out on the street for — billionaires, no war, and screen-time guilt included.
