Episode 66 - International Queens of Mystery (Dragrace Global Allstars Ep 3)

For some reason that can only be chalked up to poor planning and/or intentional villainy, they decide to do a ball in episode two with THIRTY SOMETHING LOOKS. Glad to know poorly planning international trips isn't just a me problem! The girls are given a James Bond-inspired challenge where they have to make super spies and their octopussy is on fire! Well, some of them. Some of them just wrap themselves in fabric and put on a good wig and call it a day. The bois talk about runways, international travel, and how much they stan Canada. Hey, the finale comes out Friday, so make sure you tune in for that!

Episode 65 - Snatch Game: The Rusical (CvtW S2 EP 5)

Leave it to the Canadians to look at two of the hardest challenges that queens do every season and go "Hey, what if we combined the two?" While we experience some technical difficulties, the bois go into what makes a good and a bad choice, what is so damn funny about saying Cheryl like she bit your finger in an aughts viral video, and why Joe is wrong about How Far I Go not being a good lipsynch song YES JOE I CONTINUE TO CALL YOU OUT HERE IN THE COPY! Want context for this nonsense? Give it a listen now!

Episode 64 - Global Talent Extravaganza Pt. 1 and Pt. 2 (Drag Race Global All Stars Season 1, Episode 1 - 2)

What a title, huh folks? While we try to figure out how to make our new profile picture look good (turns out two unathletic Jews and a gym bunny lead to some interesting olympic-themed photographs) let's meet our very first GLOBAL ALL STARS! From all around the world, from the Philipines to Belgium to America, drag queens have congregated under the banner of Drag Race for a chance at glory and now some of the best of the best (and honestly it's a pretty damn stacked cast) have come together to battle it out for the first inductee into the Drag Race Hall of Fame International Pavilion! How EPCOT of them. The bois sit down and go through both parts of this two-part premiere and it is a HOOT, so give it a download now and let's see what these queens from around the world can do!

Episode 63 - Reading Battles (CvTW S2 EP 4)

Let's get this roast a-cookin'! The producers up in Canada prove that they're smarter than the average bear (they have bears in Canada, right?) by combining the reading mini-challenge with the roast challenge! As the girls pair off to read each other the house-down-boots-tongue-pop-yes-gawd, the bois gush about this amuse bouche of a season as it cleanses the pallette and reminds us that the only thing we're fucking is funny. Does that joke work? Are you still reading this? If you are, you have to give us a five star review and listen to the latest episode of This Toxic Fandom - Canada Vs The World series 2!

Episode 62 -Glamorous Drag Queen Ball Challenge (Canada Vs The World S2 E3)

It's a new day on the pod and we're having a ball! ...Literally. This week the queens have to take on the future in what we're lovingly calling the AI Ball. I was going use AI to write this summery but as a writer I couldn't bring myself to. Can all of these bottom ball girls find a top? Is Feircealicious a petulant child? Who gets a Rudemption? And is there such thing as a good Avril Lavigne lip sync song (David thinks they all are, don't come for him)? All this and more! Take a listen and enjoy! 

Episode 61 - The Hole (Canada Vs the World S2 E2)

We're back this week to discuss Canada Vs The World Season Two Episode! Find out if anyone is or found the Hole, while we still ponder why Cheryl lost hers. Also, which reality TV archetype are you? We're itching to know. 

Episode 60 - Grand Finale Part 2 (AS9, E12)

Well, we did it, Joe! We finished the season of... Well, not a whole lot. We've probably seen worse, but not by much. How will it end? With a bang or a whimper? Will the judging make sense? Will Steven try desperately to remain positive despite having brain problems? Will David talk about The Fabulous Four, now in theaters, go see it? Will Joe give some of their hottest takes? Yes! To all of these! But more! Check it out now and join the conversation as we finally bid adieu to All Stars 9!

Episode 59 - Drag Pop (Canada Vs the World S2, EP 1)

It's a smack-down, drag-out fight for the finish as the second round of girls enters Canada Vs. The Wor-- Well, it's really more of Canada Vs. The Commonwealth if you only have one girl from a season that isn't from an English-speaking country, innit? After slogging through All Stars 9 the bois are back and ready to watch girls from France, the UK, America, and Canada battle it out for a crown and $100,000 in a season that Joe probably called "Lemon-tastic" in private and would never admit it. Sadly, due to technical issues, Steven had already passed out by the time they recorded it so prepare for an... Animated first episode.

Episode 58 - Grand Finale Part 1 (AS9, EP 11)

UGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH WHO THOUGHT IT WAS A GOOD IDEA TO BREAK THE FINALE INTO TWO PARTS DO THEY NOT THINK PEOPLE HAVE LIVES?! The bois are on the struggle bus and it's careening towards a cliff as the girls of All Stars 9 do the world's longest makeover mini-challenge of all time and then faff about forever. Tic Tacs are eaten, sleep is not had, and the twists on twists on twists don't really feel all that twisty in the grand scheme of things, so the Bois get medical and start dissecting what worked and what didn't about this really, really weird season of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars. Listen now so you too can complain about strange productions with us!Check us out on TikTok at https://www.tiktok.com/@thistoxicfandom and on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/thistoxicfandom/  

Episode 57 - Lip-Sync Lalaparuza Smackdown (AS9, EP 10)

The bois are here, they're queer, and they're gonna watch some drag queens lip sync for a badge! As the season begins to wind down we watch as the girls of All Stars 9 dip, trip, dive, duck, and dodge through a lip sync smorgasbord of (kinda alleged) fan favorite numbers! It's hard to be invested but by golly they give it their all. Or something like that. Download the latest episode now so you can join in on the toxic fandom discourse!
