    Miss Ruby is joined by the legendary Sylvia O’Stayformore to tackle two critical crises: First, a woman who claims her body revolts every time her husband eats bacon in the house. Allergic to bacon? Is she weird or very weird?

    The some high-and-mighty snob claims dogs shouldn’t eat floor food, excuse me, but who died and made them Queen of Dropped Snacks? Miss Ruby and Sylvia debate whether this person needs to be scolded or worse!

    And finally Sylvia reveals the origin of her show, Bacon Strips name, an spills some juicy secrets about Rubys hairdresser, Roger—turns out, his scissor skills aren’t the only skills he possesses. Grab your snack of choice (preferably floor-adjacent) and prepare for the worst advice ever served!

    In this very special episode of The Punching Judys, host Louvel is on the mend after surgery, but the show must go on! Stepping into Louvel’s high heels is none other than drag legend and special guest co-host, Sylvia O’Stayformore, bringing her signature wit and glamour to the mic.


    Together, Sylvia and Ruby discuss their new favorite thing, Naked Yoga poet farmers (we kid you not) and the dive into the 20th anniversary of the infamous Bacon Strip drag show, a raucous, boundary-pushing spectacle that has left its indelible mark on drag history. They share wild stories about how the show began—its humble origins, the iconic performers who graced its stage, and the various venues that housed its chaotic energy over the years.


    From unforgettable performances to behind-the-scenes drama, and audience antics that could only happen at Bacon Strip, no stone is left unturned. Whether you were there for the glitter-covered madness or are just hearing about it now, this episode is a heartfelt, and slightly unhinged tribute to two decades of alt drag excellence.


    They also explore the Miss Bacon Strip pageant and discover some of the talented personalities who were crowned over the years, including the very first Miss Bacon Strip, Jinkx Monsoon. Tune in for laughs, nostalgia, and maybe even a few shocking confessions—because when Sylvia O’Stayformore is in the house, anything can happen!

  • Bad Advice: Mile High Meltdown
    Apr 21 2025

    This week on The Punching Judys: Bad Advice. Strap in—literally—because we’re tackling the high-stakes drama of airplane seating etiquette! Is the window seat a sacred throne, or just a claustrophobic nightmare with a view? Should middle-seaters be entitled to both armrests as compensation for their suffering? And aisle-seaters, are you really just reserving that spot for easy escape when you’ve enjoyed too many complementary beverages? The Judys break it down with their signature blend of wisdom and chaos—because nothing says "friendly skies" like a passive-aggressive battle over window control .


    Then, things get very personal when Louvel accuses Ruby of writing a shady letter about her, and Ruby fires back with accusations of gaslighting. Who’s the bigger interrupter? Who’s the master manipulator? It’s a “she said, she said” showdown that’ll have you questioning every conversation you’ve ever had. And just when you think it can’t get any wilder, the Judys close out the episode with a musical number so catchy, you’ll forget all about that time you got stuck next to a mouth breather in 12B. All aboard the drama plane—next stop, Punching Judys pandemonium!

    This week on The Punching Judys, the ladies dive into the glitz, glamour, and raw honesty of Liza Minnelli’s captivating new documentary LIZA: A Truly Terrific Absolutely True Story, with their signature blend of wit and warmth, the Judys unpack Minnelli’s legendary career, her triumphs, struggles, and the indomitable spirit that made her an icon. Whether gushing over her show-stopping performances or reflecting on the personal battles behind the spotlight, the conversation is as heartfelt as it is hilarious—because if anyone understands the highs and lows of a life in entertainment, it’s the Judys.


    Then, in true Judy fashion, the tone shifts from poignant to playful as they tackle Miss Ruby’s infamous verbal crutch: “Hey, listen!” Is it a charming quirk, or a full-blown catchphrase? The debate is on, with plenty of good-natured ribbing and exaggerated impressions. But things really heat up when Miss Ruby drops the bombshell that she’s heading to Utah to see Hans again. Louvel, ever the instigator, raises an eyebrow and suggests there might be some monkey business afoot—prompting Miss Ruby to snap back, “Hey, listen! We are playing it by ear… ” Cue the dramatic gasps and knowing smirks. Will Miss Ruby finally kick her verbal habit? Will Louvel ever stop stirring the pot? And just what (or who) is waiting for Ruby in Utah? Tune in for laughs, love, and just a touch of scandal—because the Judys wouldn’t have it any other way!

    This week on our biweekly episode of The Punching Judys: Bad Advice, our hosts tackle two delightfully messy dilemmas! First up: a bride-to-be is watching her dream wedding crumble faster than a poorly constructed fondant cake as her mother-in-law and sister-in-law hijack everything from the guest list to the cake flavor!! Will our hosts suggest she elope? Fake her own kidnapping? Or just start a full-blown cake war? Tune in to find out!

    Then, we meet a well-meaning but clueless husband who broke the ultimate marital pact—he binged The Great British Bake Off, without his wife! Now, he’s knee-deep in soggy-bottomed lies and Paul Hollywood-level guilt. Should he grovel? Fake amnesia? Or just bake her a really good Victoria sponge as a peace offering? You’ll laugh, you’ll cringe, and you might even pick up some terrible life tips to avoid along the way!

  • Crazy For UK!

    Hold onto your crumpets, darlings—this week, The Punching Judys are going full Brit-mode! 🇬🇧☕ After discovering that over half their audio podcast listeners hail from the UK, the girls break out into a joyous (and possibly off-key) rendition of Rule Britannia. Between raising imaginary pints and attempting posh accents, the Judys shower their UK fans with love, proving that laughter truly knows no borders.

    In Favorite Things the gals dive into the gloriously campy world of Madam’s Place, the 1980s sitcom starring Waylon Flowers and Madame—because nothing says “iconic” like shoulder pads and sassy one-liners. 🎭 Could a reboot be in the works? (The Judys volunteer as tribute.) Then, in Miscellaneous, things get deliciously chaotic as they recap a recent pizza parlor escapade, debating the merits of controversial toppings (looking at you, pineapple warriors 🍕🍍) and a mind-bending trip to Seattle’s Museum of Pop Art. Was it high culture or just an excuse to take silly selfies with genius works of Keith Haring? Why not both?

    But wait—there’s a plot twist! Ruby used to hang out with Ms. Pak-Man, tune in for the deets!!! On another note, our beloved Louvel is taking a brief hiatus for some “spa time” (aka surgery—send healing vibes!), so Seattle’s queen of all things Bacon, Sylvia O’Stayformore, is stepping into the hosting hot seat. Will there be glitter bombs? Unplanned karaoke? A dramatic reading of Yelp reviews? Only time will tell. One thing’s for sure: This episode is packed with laughs, nostalgia, and enough British charm to make the Royal Guard crack a smile.

    In this lucky 16th episode, Ruby and Louvel are serving up a pot o’ gold full of laughs, tea, and Punching Judys wisdom! These two queens kick things off by celebrating St. Patrick’s Day in style, shouting out their global listeners … shoutout to the UK crew who totally get the whole Punch & Judy vibe.


    Next, Ruby spills the tea on her fabulous performance at the Belltown Yacht Club, where she flirted with the audience and had the crowd eating out of the palm of her hand. She gives a big shoutout to all the amazing folks who showed up to support her—because what’s a queen without her loyal followers? Meanwhile, Louvel drops some personal news: she’s gearing up for surgery soon. But don’t worry, she’s got the incredible Queer Sick Fund (thank you, Betty Wetter, Drama Tops, and VelocityDanceCenter.org!) in her corner, proving once again that the queer performance community is the real MVP.


    And because these two can’t resist a good life update, they dive into Big Sue’s Ozempic journey, Louvel’s health glow-up, and how she’s been slaying her healthy routines like the queen she is. Finally, they wrap things up with a deep dive into the crazy drama that is Season 17 of RuPaul’s Drag Race. Who’s your winner? Who’s your Judy? Tune in to find out!
