Episode notes
When The Simpsons (finally) decided to cast their BIPOC characters with BIPOC actors, Tony RodrÃguez got to werk! A gay, Cuban actor and improviser known for Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, Adam Ruins Everything, and Netflix's Gentefied, Tony launched a viral TikTok campaign to land the role of Julio - the gay, Cuban hairdresser on the long-running show. Bitches, he got the part!
Tony talks about fighting for the role, and tells the story of becoming an accidental prostitute for a night. Money is money, honey! His bestie Mark Rennie, host of podcast Two Old Queens, joins and we get gay.
We're taking a break for a bit, but we'll come back bigger, badder and better very soon! We'll keep you posted on Instagram, so follow us at @donttellmymother.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving. Your family knows how to push your buttons cause they're the ones who installed them. If they knew better, they'd DO better! Be kind.
