Joshua Ashton on Vanderpump Rules (and Karma Fest 2024) PART ONE
Explicit content warning
05/30/24 • 53 min
For today’s two-part coffee break, I welcome one of my best friends, Joshua Ashton, to the UFO to force him to watch Season Two of Vanderpump Rules and chat about the ridiculous and intellectual qualities of truly one of the greatest reality TV shows of all time that I happen to have written my thesis about in college. But before we dive into the darkly comedic underworld around Lisa Vanderpump, we talk about the upcoming Karma Fest UNITY happening June 22nd and 23rd at Steppingstone Museum in Havre de Grace... where I will be leading a Queer support circle. ENJOY!!

Season Two of #RockStarLife: Coffee Break blasts off with new episodes every Thursday—plus surprise Espresso Shots whenever the cosmos (or my caffeine levels) demand it. 🚀☕✨
Plus! The revolution needs YOU! Ethereal Anarchy: Zenobia Darling's Haunted Revolution Part 1 premiered on November 1st, capturing one of the most profound paranormal experiences I’ve ever had—documented in full, raw, reality-fabulousness. But we have more content, and filmed during the preimere, and now on a mission to make a part two, creating a first of its kind, full length paranormal documentry. Your support on our GoFundMe fuels everything from ghost-hunting gear to our fierce crew, keeping the spooky, queer vibes alive for the next chapter. Every dollar helps us push boundaries, bring the supernatural to life, and, yes—raise the dead!
Immense love to my fabulous sponsors: Odyssey Salon and Day Spa in Aberdeen, MD!!!

Ghost Adventures: Skinwalker Invasion BONUS ESPRESSO SHOT!!!
For this bonus Espresso shot solo episode, I live watched the new Ghost Adventures special “Skinwalker Invasion” so you don’t have to!! Zak and crew are in Torrey, Utah to investigate reports of Native American Skinwalkers in the town around an Inn and General Store... Truly a supersized goldmine of GAC hijinks that I couldn’t help but comedically take down. ENJOY!!!

We originally live-reacted to the season two reunion, but we scraped it and got this 1 am hot mess of an episode where we talk about why we scrapped it, Gordon Ramsey, New Jersey, and the last half being us talking art. Make sure you check out Karma Fest UNITY happening June 22nd and 23rd at Steppingstone Museum in Havre de Grace... where I will be leading a Queer support circle. ENJOY!!
