Ryan and Yvie welcome the iconic Kim Chi — Drag Race legend, fashion queen, and beauty mogul. Kim opens up about her whirlwind tour life, the balance between artistry and survival, and why she thinks modern Drag Race has lost some originality. She spills on launching KimChi Chic Beauty, writing a cookbook, and navigating the toxic mix of body image and online hate while still pursuing her passions.

Expect plenty of shade and laughs too: Yvie recalls a chaotic tour disaster, Kim confesses her biggest drag pet peeves, and the queens debate what really makes a great performance. Plus, Kim’s foodie adventures, juicy pageant drama, and hot takes on Big Brother and Gen V.

This episode is equal parts inspiring, hilarious, and raw, showcasing Kim Chi’s wit, resilience, and undeniable drag legacy.
