Wigs & Wice

We know, we're as shocked as you are to see us pop up in your new episodes. But we're here and 2020 is almost freaking over! While we wait patiently for all the important people to get the vaccine first, let's stay indoors and listen to us tell you about all the fun stuff we read, watched, listened to and drank to keep us sane in the wildest year on record. We hope to be back soon in 2021 but we made this one just as long to tide you over until we get our acts together. Love you, wigs!

Hi, Wigs! Staying home? Good, us too. Hear another episode in less than a week - see, we're helping keep you sane. Ish. This week we attempt to laugh at what this pandemic is doing to us, stomp a mudhole in Natalie Maines' ex-husband's face, ruin Indiana Jones and spoil the hell out of Love is Blind (literally - skip 54:00 - 1:06:40) if you haven't watched yet and if you haven't watched yet, YOU HAVE WEEKEND PLANS). Give it a listen - if you love it, tell a friend! If you don't, what do you expect, this shit is free!  WE REPEAT - LOVE IS BLIND SPOILERS (54:00-1:06:40) 

I think we are! Did absence make the heart grow fonder? Because WE. MISSED. YOU. No really, we're keeping our social distance because that is responsible and appropriate but boy, are we sending the love. And our first new episode in over two months (gulp)! Fear not, with all this staying home, we're trying to get back to the old days of, wait for it, WEEKLY episodes. So, slip on your old wigs and fill up a glass because Wigs & Wice is back for your listening pleasure. The audio quality is a little glitchy at times, but we're working on that, too. Wouldn't be W&W if there weren't some technical difficulties, right? Right?? You still there? Great, press play and stay safe. 

Listen, we know we said we shan't pop nary another cork, but... then the Oscars went and continued to be lame AF. So we're serving you some slightly popped cork realness along with a few Troll Patrols that will have you questioning if it's your version of reality that's skewed. And as always, we'll flip our wigs with the things that made us happy this month. 

Can you believe it, Wigs? We made it through 2019, relatively unscathed! We're not promising anything for 2020. We know, we know... we gave up popping corks a couple episodes ago but when it comes to wrapping up the year, we had to share our rants one last time. There's also a whole lot of Wigs to flip in the world of books, TV, music and movies so you know just what to binge through the holidays. Thanks for listening! 

Hi Wigs! This week, we're not popping corks! We want to keep things light, fun and positive going into this holiday season, so we bring you our top five activities that don't involve Black Friday. Along with some second opinions and - of course - we flip our wigs, because we'll always have things to flip our wigs about. 

It's been three years, Wigs! Can you believe it? The only unbelievable thing is that we still have no idea what's going on with our sound equipment! As is slightly evident this week, but at least we're consistent right?? Speaking of consistency, it may be time to retire one of the segments we've done since the beginning. Popping corks just makes us feel like popping off these days, so enjoy one? last one before we fill that space with something more positive-- or at least fun. But don't worry, this week is still full of some gripes including Todrick Hall, a super fucked up haunted house and a baffling turn for Queen Meryl. Hey, not everything can be Mama Mia! Here We Go Again! 

Hi, Wigs! Remember us?! That's right, we're back after having taken the summer off totally on purpose and not at all in an unplanned way. We missed you and our usual shenanigans, so we're back in full force. It's an episode of doughy white dudes including the salsa dancing potato that is Sean Spicer and the racist, D-bag "comedian" that was cast on SNL for about three minutes. We also flip our wigs for All In With Iskra both have a lovefest for T. Swift's LOVER. We're glad to be back, and promise to never leave you so long again... until we accidentally do. 

Listen, we're not known for keeping our knickers knot-free, but this week might take the cake. Maybe it's that we've been away a while or maybe it was the bottle of wine, but we took it out on the Cats trailer, Disney World Mom, Titus Burgess, Jake Paul and yes, even the Queen herself. Something must be in the air. That has to be it. It can't be the wine. We oop our way through it all AND a Troll Patrol that gives new meaning to "Bitches who go to diners need to act right." That may actually be the only meaning for that. Oh, we got Wigs, too. Cuz we care about some stuff still. Thanks for listening! 

No, white clams are not what we call those pissed off bigots who are mad about the casting of The Little Mermaid remake. But it kind of definitely works. There's also a whole bunch of other rants about the latest KUWTK drama, Jeffrey Epstein, streaming service overload and yes, even the 1995 classic, "Now and Then." We've got TWO Second Opinions and wigs as fiery red as the one Halle Bailey may or may not wear! You know why? Because things change! And that's okay! Thanks for listening!

Hi, Wigs! We're back with an extra long one starring a very special guest, writer/producer and Paul's hubby, Nick Rufca. We do all the usual nonsense PLUS a deep dive into the career of Madame X (some of you might know her better  as Madonna). Nick is her #1 Stan, so you'll definitely want to hear all the fascinating and honest insights we uncovered over two bottles of rose. All this and so much more, including all the pop culture recommendations you've been craving in film, tv, books and music! Thanks for listening and please remember to rate, review and pass us along to a friend! 

There has never been a more appropriate episode title. Spoiler alert, and the only one you're going to get, Lindsay hated the Game of Thrones finale. She talks about it A LOT. In detail. It's like when your crazy aunt gets cut off in the Target parking lot and someone steals her spot, except, it's about Game of Thrones. So much.  Here are the actual time stamps in case you are someone who does not want the entire finale spoiled. 7:15-16:30, 38:40-42:15 We also talked about other crap, too. Aladdin, Constance Wu, Tony Robbins, DJ Khaled. All crap. But then we give you our three summertime favorites to kick your summer magic into high gear. It's Memorial Day, Wigs! Wice it up and thanks for listening!

Hi, Wigs! Are you ready for the biggest podcast spectacular of the year starring Hollywood's hottest A-List stars? Well, tough titties, this is just Wigs & Wice! This week we get into our feelings about Game of Thrones, Nicholas Cage, Bob Kraft and starving anal worms (unrelated somehow!) And if that's not enough to make you hit DOWNLOAD, how about a Troll Patrol dispatch with one of the most terrible trolls we've ever had the displeasure of reading? And as always, Wigs for days and days and days. Which is good because you'll need it while you wait in line for Avengers tickets! (That's a dumb joke because no one waits in line for tickets anymore) Thanks for listening and don't forget to rate, review, share and subscribe! 

Wait for it. 

Hi, Wigs! What a long strange year it has already been, no? Makes you long for the cozier night terrors of 2018. Thankfully, we're back with another episode filled with lots of confused vigor and fury to make the pain SLIGHTLY less eye-stabby. This week, we wade through the Khloe/Jordyn drama, unravel the insanity of the Momo Challenge and sashay right on past the complications of Leaving Neverland and Jussie Smollett in favor of more important issues... Drag Race Drama!! We've got a double Troll Patrol that takes you from a beloved Los Angeles bodega to just south of the border. And Wigs to keep you smiling long into the weekend. Thanks for listening! 

Whoo, we worked really hard on that title. And you've earned it because we have been MIA. We know. Consistency is not our strong suit. Neither is production value (as you'll see in the first five minutes of terrible recording audio). Why do you guys listen to this podcast again? Because we keeps it 100! And this week, we have extra help in the form of a truly fabulous Wig, Vanessa Strafaci! We dive headfirst into the Grammys, cell phone surveillance, David Foster and Katharine McPhee's never-ending engagement and Meghan Markle's brilliant attempt to take over Buckingham Palace (or at least just have that damn kid in peace). Oh, and we finally checked the email. Seriously, why do you guys listen to this podcast? We love you! 

Hi, Wigs! Here we come slicing back into 2019 like a Mach 3 taking aim at fragile male egos. And even though we can't manage to get this government up and running, our corks are ready to pop on all things crappy from Gwyneth Paltrow and Mary Poppins Returns to Karen Pence and the most popular egg on the planet (ironically not one in the same). We have a revealing new segment on the horrors of those garbage people who walk and date among us and plenty of wigs to help get your January off on the right foot. Even though we're nearly three weeks in. Sorry 'bout 'dat. This is Wigs & Wice!

Hi, Wigs! Well, before we round out this shitshow of a year, we have one more episode for your listening pleasure. And lucky us, you did all the work! That's right, some of our favorite listeners weighed in with their favorite things of the year (and a few popped corks for good measure). We have a twisted Troll Patrol dispatch and even a throwback to one of our very first episodes. Spoiler alert, we got drunk. Love you wigs so much for your support. Thanks for all the love and we'll be back in 2019!

Hi, Wigs! Happy holidays and congrats on zipping up your jeans during this most bloated time of year. Far less bloated (no offense) is this week’s episode, our annual best and worst of the year. That's right, our top five corks and wigs of this relatively terrible but otherwise fabulous year. It’s the perfect escape from when that cousin tries to defend Megyn Kelly and the egg nog runs dry. Enjoy responsibly and thanks for listening!

That's right, Wigs! We're back and so is Finch 93! But we're the ones with loads to blow this week because we've been gone SO long. This is an extra long, jam-packed episode so get yourself a bottle of something extra cold and settle in. We get into that piece of shit from Baylor, blood clots, Youtube Rewind, whatever the hell Poppy is and so much more. Wigs for days that you'll have to wait for, but suffice it to say, you can consider one Netflix Christmas special officially SPOILED. Thanks for listening! 

Hi, Wigs! This week's episode is one big crazy surprise so buckle up and press play. Thanks for listening!

This week, it's a very special episode of Wigs and Wine. Coming to you LIVE from Paullapalooza! You can expect all of your favorite segments including a very special Troll Patrol Dispatch with a dash of audience participation.

Oof, that's probably not what you were expecting to see in your pod subscriptions this AM, huh? We gotta cut to the chase, Wigs. Not only did we have to take another month break, but this episode is GNARLY. In the best way tho! All sorts of new sex stuff and not all of it has to do with our latest Supreme Court justice! LOL AREN'T WE?? Beyond that POS, we also drag Charlie Puth, Amazon, Azalea Banks and sadly, Murphy Brown. Yeah, nobody is happy with that one, but we're non-partisan (or at least we pretend to be). Lots of good stuff, too, tho. A double Troll Patrol and Wigs galore to make you smile until you get sized for your Handmaid garb. Chin up! No, that's what your Handmaid tailor is going to say to you. Thanks for listening!!

Hi, Wigs! Austin Powers finally got the answer to his burning question and as it turns out, it's Cardi B. As usual we consume and digest all the garbage juice of the week so you don't have to! From the Saturday Night Smackdown heard around the world to Les Moonves (GTFO) to the pastor who decided that there's never a wrong time to grope. We gotta be honest, this week's garbage juice was much more stank than usual. But don't worry because after all that, you can sink your teeth into an Italian feast-inspired Troll Patrol. Then sit back, flip yo wig and load up on all the great pop culture you'll need to get you through the weekend! Keep those heels where we can see 'em and thanks for listening! 

Wigs! We're back! It's been a long hot summer and we know we've been away a while, but fear not because you've got a long one (almost two hours!) on your hands (that's what he said). This week is very special because we got to interview last year's Miss America contestant who stole the entire show with her charm, confidence and killer sax rendition of Beyonce's "Listen" that took our breath away. She's got lots to share about her life, the state of "Miss America 2.0" and Beyonce, of course. We also pop our corks over everything that sucked in August including, jerks like Elon Musk, Louis CK, Alex Jones and... Johnny Depp (actually he had a pretty decent week, tbh). Fear not though because between Katie's effervescent attitude and lots of wigs to flip we'll send you into Labor Day weekend feeling fab af! Thanks for listening and don't forget to rate, review, subscribe and tell a friend!

I found a bunch of people on YouTube who bite popsicles. Lindsay's gonna kill me. Enjoy! 

We're back, Wigs! The three week drought is over and we have so much to catch up on. So pour yourself a nice icy glass and settle in for some popped corks on Lin Manuel Miranda, Sharp Objects, Johnny Depp, Katharine McPhee (yeah, we recorded this before we knew her dad died so... our bad on that (but that still doesn't make the engagement any less weird)) and gay stuff we're supposed to like but don't! We have a Wig Request and Quizzin' Lindsay all about conspiracy theories. Plus, loads of fun Wigs to flip over a whole bunch of new movies and shows to keep you busy no matter where your heat wave is currently keeping you locked inside, face-first into an A/C. Thanks for listening! 

Sorry we're a little late this week, Wigs. It's only because we have the story of the century and it took this long to get it right. It involves two gay swans from Vienna and a plastic cup and truly, it's a LOT. But you'll have to get through a whole lot of corks to earn it. This week, Lindsay goes deep, really deep, on Oceans 8. And in the midst of it all, Paul discusses toxic masculinity, 50 Cent, Jurassic World, Floyd Mayweather AND Sarah Huckabee Sanders. While Lindsay talks shit about Oceans 8. And don't worry, if you don't want it spoiled, there's a spoiler alert right at the moment she loses her mind. But you really, really shouldn't care. We've also got a second opinion and lots of Wigs, including Paul's assessment of Bey's new album (featuring Jay Z) that goes on about as long as Lindsay's Oceans tirade. Did we mention Lindsay hated Oceans 8? Grab yo wice, prepare for the swans and enjoy! 

Wigs! It's a surprise Boner Alert! We've got a gagworthy final four for season ten of RuPaul's Drag Race, so we had to tell you ALL our thoughts before this week's reunion and next week's grand finale! Find out who's team we're on to take the crown and continue the legacy of America's Next Drag Superstar! Thanks for listening! 

Toss anotha' Wig on the Barbie, mates, because we're going down under this week. Not literally because we barely have the budget to go to Trader Joe's, but we did do an Itch Scratch on a seminal comedic film franchise that you might not realize is a seminal comedic film franchise. We also pop our corks over Pete & Ariana's engagement, horrific movie talkers, Billy McFarland and the return of 60 Seconds of Scorched Earth! Everything, as always, ends on a happy note though; we flip our wigs over The Artist Way, Killing Eve, Camila Cabello and a number of pop culture contributions from real life Stans that must be addressed and honored! Y'all are so creative out there! So, as long as the world keeps burning, you keep that Wice nice and frosty cold. This is Wigs & Wice!

Hi, Wigs! This week's episode runs a little long, but it's only because we care. And Roseanne got cancelled. And we had 3/4 of a bottle of rose. And sex robots. And Drake has baby mama beef. And Westworld doesn't make sense. And Lindsay delivers a Dickensian Troll Patrol. And then, we still had to make room for flipped wigs and those are just as high volume! From an outstanding Korean horror movie to an epic podcast recommendation to new jams and a plea for sponsorship from ANY WINE STORE THAT WILL TAKE US, life's not as bad as it may seem. Even with Kim Kardashian in the White House. Oof, that one's hard to swallow. Pour yourself an extra half a glass and settle in, Wigs. Thanks for listening! 

Wigs! It's royal wedding weekend! Do you have the fever? Yeah, neither do we. But we do want to talk about the Markles because they are Making England Great Again™. Also, we have some thoughts on Nev Schulman, the Tim Hortons Pooper®, Lil Tay (she back) and the worst douchebag from Texas (which is saying something), Blake Farenthold. But there's also this dude in our Troll Patrol who's pretty awful. AND Laurel and/or Yanny, depending on how you swing. Guys, things are still not great. Except our Wigs! We're snatched about an important new HBO doc, the Golden State Killer arrest, a brilliant Netflix comedy special and a tragic drunken Whitney Houston mistake Paul will never make again.  Eh, let's get real, he'll probably make it again in a week. Happy Friday Wigs! Pour yourself something stiff and thanks for listening!

Wigs, things are confusing. You know this. We know this. We don't know how to fix it, but every single day, we strive to speak more eloquently about it. Because none of these fools we're talking about are going to. So today, brace yourself for corks on Kanye, Kim K, Uber, Lil Tay and Katherine Heigl, because that bitch more than anyone, simply can't just be cool. But stay tuned for a Troll Patrol and plenty of wigs to flip that remind us there's always a light at the end of the long, long, long, long, long dark tunnel that is 2018. Thanks for listening! 

It's official, our podcast is working. Beyonce streamed her glorious conquest of the Coachella festival and our wigs can never be snatched in the same way again. Unfortunately, Paul also has a very real hangover and it made us both a lil punchy. Our targets? Tristan Thompson, Karl Lagerfeld, Louis CK, the permit offices of Connecticut and Amazon for spending far too much money on Hobbits. But there is a Troll Patrol Dispatch and so many Wigs to flip. Did we mention Beychella? Yeah, I think we might have mentioned Beychella. Thanks for listening!  

Hi, Wigs! Don't know who Benny Mardones is by name? Don't worry, you know his one hit song. And you're going to know a lot more about that particular song by the end of this magic carpet ride into the hows and whys of sexual consent laws. Plus, you'll get our thoughts on the Beyonce bite (obviously), Allison Mack's sex cult, Blac Chyna's Six Flags meltdown, Jewish escape rooms and yes, we even found time to gross you out on sneezes that make your neck explode (trigger warning). There's good news though! Lindsay went to DBox and she's not in a cult! And Paul discovered the shade of Peppa Pig. Pour 'em if you got 'em! This is Wigs & Wice. 

RuPaul's Drag Race Season 10 is SICKENING and we're here to recap every moment of episodes 1 and 2. Or at least as many moments as we can remember. This is Boner Alert! (boners, because we each have one for this show and cuz it kind of sounds like 'bonus.' Just go with it, Hunties.) Tune in for all the tea you'll need to prepare for all new episodes, every Thursday night on VH1!

Hi, Wigs! Are you having a hell of a hump day? Well, we're here one day early to pop those corks and flip them wigs to see you through the week with some light and laughter. Like a phoenix rising from the ashes of Ben Affleck's career, we deep dive into Uber's latest s**tstorm, that new Avengers trailer, creep-of-the-week Katy Perry, the fallout of Fifth Harmony's "hiatus" and Toni Braxton's continuing feud with the IRS. We have a double whammy of a Second Opinion AND plenty of pop culture recommendations to keep your wigs snatched until you hear from us again. Clink, clink, bish! This is Wigs & Wice. 

Hi, Wigs! We have a very special episode today - a full finale recap of  the messiest All Stars season ever. AND our first impressions of ALL the queens from season ten, premiering this Thursday on VH1. What are you waiting for? Shangela to finally get the crown she rightly deserves? Well, keep waiting then because it's not happening and Santa isn't real and the world is terrible! Enjoy!

Mara Wilson, you had it coming. Hey, Wigs! We are so excited to pop you another fresh batch of nasty little corks. From the cruel Bachelor finale to TJ Miller and, yes, even the Fyre Festival is back. Two Troll Patrols for the price of none AND wigs for daaaaaays. This week, we Kombucha’d but it’s a long one, so you might wanna to settle in with a nice bottle of Sancie with TWO cubes. You’ve earned it. Thanks for listening!

RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars is back and we're here to recap every sickening moment of episodes 5 and 6. Or at least as many sickening moments as we can remember. This is Boner Alert! (boners, because we each have one for this show and cuz it kind of sounds like 'bonus.' Just go with it, Wigs.) Tune in for all the tea you'll need to prepare for all new episodes, every Thursday on VH1!

"The truth is... you weren't invited. Through all your bulls**t and sad existence. We'll break it down now... just keep your distance." - Andrew Lloyd Webber Hi, Wigs! We're back and ready to rock. This week, we pop our corks over Trumpers in love, the Kim Catrrall/SJP messiness, improv politics, Fergie's reboot of Clumsy and some stuff about Missouri marriage that'll make you wonder, what the hell is going on in Missouri? We've got a Second Opinion and loads of wigs to flip, too. So what you waiting for? Pour yourself some wice, tighten up your lacefront and relax. Thanks for listening!

RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars is back and we're here to recap every sickening moment of episodes 3 and 4. Or at least as many sickening moments as we can remember. This is Boner Alert! (boners, because we each have one for this show and cuz it kind of sounds like 'bonus.' Just go with it, Wigs.) Tune in for all the tea you'll need to prepare for all new episodes, every Thursday on VH1!

It's time for a RUality Check! RuPaul's Drag Race is back and we're here to recap every sickening moment of episodes 1 and 2. Or at least as many sickening moments as we can remember. This is Boner Alert! (boners, because we each have one for this show and cuz it kind of sounds like 'bonus.' Just go with it, Wigs.) Tune in for all the tea you'll need to prepare for all new episodes, every Thursday on VH1!

There are literally nine more Star Wars movies coming. And unless Uma Thurman is playing a bounty hunter in at least three of them, we're OUT. Other things we're not here for? Justin Timberlake's Super Bowl shenanigans (kinda), Sleep No More allegations (kinda sorta) and Aziz Ansari (kinda sorta, too). Come to think of it, we disagreed on a bunch of stuff this week! That's why you love us, right, Wigs? One thing we both stand firm on though? QUINCY JONES' TEA. It's piping hot and must be consumed immediately. All this and flipped wigs galore just begging to climb into your earholes. Do it, do it, do it! 

Hi, Wigs! Are you a Pippi Longstocking fan? Well, we'd relish the opportunity to tell you why you should be. Also this week, we pop our corks over music that won't be on either of our death bed playlists, a very disturbing movie about a girl in a box and another girl at The Comedy Store with bad shoes who we wish could take her place. But, as always, wigs must be flipped and there is plenty of volume in these locks... Rocket the wonder dog, Happy Death Day, The Florida Project and a heated debate over what you'd rather be... a duck or a hawk. There's seriously good points on both sides. Grab a glass and listen up, this is Wigs & Wice! 

Is this whole scorched earth thing fixed yet? Cool. In the meantime, let’s rip the band-aid off those pesky idiots who came out the gate strong in 2018. From Ben Shapiro to drowsy Vulture columnists to Stephen Miller’s creepy eyes, we'll kick your heart rate into gear so you can reach those “new year, new me” goals! As for some good news, we dive deep into the Golden Globes, deliver a fabulous new book recommendation, discuss 2018 movies worth waiting in line for and tiptoe around the brilliance of Black Mirror (minor spoiler, with a warning). And yes, we'll prove that Jessica Chastain is a robot who dispenses salt. Thanks for listening!

Happy new wig! In our second New Year special Paul and Lindsay take a walk down memory wig (that wig usage may have been a stretch), as they discuss their top 5 Popped Corks and top 5 Flipped wigs in a year that was as volatile as the Bitcoin we'll all be begging for in 2018.

Jolly merridays, Wigs! It's been a whole month since we got topical on your asses, so you better believe it gets really real this week. We dug into our stockings looking for gifts and wound up with a whole lot of coal in the form of the Golden Globes, Roy Moore, Morrissey, Josh Homme and everyone's favorite Christmas treat, jury duty! But stay with us because there is some pure holiday magic in the form of an itch scratch devoted to a timeless Christmas song, a Second Opinion listener request and a reading from none other than Betty White herself. (Okay, fine, we don't have Betty herself, but we do have her musings!) Pour yourself some egg nog (with ice) and settle in... this is Wigs & Wice!

This week, we do a deep dive into pop culture and the world of trolls. Lindsay goes hard after those that come for her local Starbucks (Did I spell basic right?). While Paul gets deep with a troll named Trudy that might change all of our lives. Then we both scratch some pop culture itches, and we serve you Thrilling helping of Michael Jackson with a nice side of Meatloaf. Dive in, Wigs. The wice is nice. 

Gobble gobble, Wigs! We're slipping on the stretchy pants and starting our Thanksgiving feast a little early because it's the best holiday of the year and we have so much to be thankful for! Awww, that was sweet. On to the mean stuff. We pick on turkeys like Noah Baumbach, basic Bourbon drinkers, Louis CK and that asshole, Christopher Columbus. Luckily we doubled down on plenty of happy side dishes filled with our new favorite shows, books and movies to keep you entertained during the break. Plus, Lindsay quizzes Paul for the first time! Just like Thanksgiving dinner, it's a long one, but we promise, you'll be more than satisfied. Thanks for listening!

Sometimes the "Wig" just doesn't fit, you guys. But we still found a way to cinch it real tight this Halloween with lots of good treats and more than enough tricks. We'll scare the pants off you with the latest on Maroon 5, Kevin Spacey, Kathy Griffin vs Andy Cohen and Taylor's tragic new attempt to stay relevant. We've got a Troll Patrol and a super sweet quiz for Lindsay. And wigs that get flipped so high, a witch caught one and swapped it out for her hat... No, that really happened! Pour yourself whatever brew suits you and enjoy!
