About this episode

Bob and Monét recap the Grand Finale of RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 18, discussing performances, fashion, and cultural nods.

Spoiler alert! This week on Sibling Watchery, Bob and Monét recap the RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 18 Grand Finale. They welcome a new queen into the winner’s circle, react to RuPaul’s live performance, and break down the finale looks. They question whether nods to culture have become a strategy, track Briar’s padding evolution, and Bob shares tips for cleaning pads. They call out the best look of the season, sound off on designer recreations, and have strong opinions on Darlene’s approach to fashion. They also weigh Nini’s standout performance, whether the crown is won in the finale or over the whole season, and if reveals get in the way of lip syncs. Plus, Bob has a message for Swifties and the Beyhive.
