About
Spencer kicks off the pod’s first Hot Potato round, tasking Brian with hosting a pair of Queer Eye episodes. Will the BTBs crumble under the weight of their first reality show, or will the Terrific Three rise to meet the standards of the Fab Five?
Like many reality shows, Queer Eye gives its cast of experts a chance to evaluate a non-TV person and help them achieve their goals. A shy gamer named Thomas gets the treatment this week. Spencer thinks everyone should just let poor Thomas play his games, while Brian doubts Karamo’s qualifications to deal with the loss of a parent. Van learns to deal with Jonathan Van Ness and reluctantly fields reality TV questions from his cohosts.
You won’t want to miss the Tubers’ coverage of this makeover/home renovation/psychoanalysis/cooking show or their thorough discussion of reality TV as a concept!
Highlights
-Steam factories and their related industries

About
The BTBs are practically reality TV veterans now, and they’re ready to tackle another episode of the hit series Queer Eye. This week’s makeover subject is a guy named John Stoner who wears a catsuit to football games regardless of the temperature.
John Stoner isn’t a bad guy or anything, but his fashion sense leans toward “nude playing cards” and he always misses Skating Dad Breakfast. The Fab Five get to work making John a better dresser and dad, while the Boob Tube Boys get to work discussing how disappointed they were that this episode contains no skating or getting stoned.
Brian doesn’t know if Antoni has killed before, while Van questions the authenticity of Tan France’s accent. At episode’s end, Brian punishes Van with his next show selection. Hit play and you’ll go from catsuit to catwalk in a Kansas City minute!
Highlights
-Brian knows too much about ’90s Olympic figure skating
-The Fab Five feud escalates
-Spencer’s breakfast corner
