Please please please, we need MORE of laganja and Joseph talk!! Let's forget about Dragrace for once.. Thank you so much for always keeping it real and vulnerable, it helps alot of us out there ❤
@@JosephAShepherd Thank you for this video. I am so excited for upcoming episodes of Queening Out . In case you do not know who I am, My name is Chrissy and I am a straight teenage fan of yours and you are so talented.
Joseph, thanks for being real about your mom situation. I'm right there with you. Setting boundaries is tough, but necessary. Your story is a timely reminder to keep prioritizing my own needs. ♥️
Love you both and feel privileged to witness your friendship. Stay strong and know that your fans adore you both and are grateful for your weekly videos. Cheers~
Omg, Joseph! Much love to you! That was a lot, indeed. I'm really sorry you had to go through this. But know that your work and the personal experiences you shared with us are very inspiring. Thank your for that! ❤ Also, Laganja was so sweet in your interaction. I'm glad you were able to have this conversation.
#MathewShepard I disowned my family when I was 16. I just couldn’t take their critiques any longer. It wasn’t because I’m gay that they’d criticise me,they criticised me because I existed! From the day I walked away from them I’ve felt free. No more guilt trips,no more questioning myself and no more having a fake sense of duty to them. I’m 23 now and I haven’t seen my family in 7 years and I couldn’t be happier We didn’t ask to be born. Once they bring us into this world they should give us unconditional love,a sense of safety and well being not emotionally kick us! Ask yourself this, if your mother wasn’t your mother would you want to know her? You have people who love you and you love back. You owe your mother NOTHING‼️ Good luck and remember what ever anyone says you deserve love and happiness. Don’t let someone’ else’s own self loathing stop you from being glorious Cashel Dublin Ireland 🇮🇪🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️✌🏻❤️
Good for you my dear, you did what you had to do at the time and it was apparently a wise decision to make. Sending you lots of love my friend, some relationships are just not meant to be, and that’s why we have chosen family.
You opening up and being honest about your personal life, made you so much hotter!! But seriously, thank you for sharing this side of you, it really does help others. :)
Joseph I wish I could give you a hug. So glad you have a therapist. I would also highly recommend reading "Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents" by Lindsay Gordon for more insight and tools to deal with these sorts of traumatic familial relationships.
@joseph thank you for feeling that you could share such a personal story. I think I speak for most who watch when I say you are supported & loved by chosen family & internet friends. I personally would be willing to hold safe space for u or anyone going through something similar. ❤
Thank you for sharing your story Joesph. I relate on so many levels with family ❤ stay strong, you are such a gift to this world. Love you and your content ❤❤
Wow, this started out heavy. All love and good vibes Joseph. I hope you heal from things no one ever apologized for. Laganja seemed to really listen and be supportive, and offer some advice. It felt like a very real moment. Thank you for feeling comfortable enough to share that.
Joseph just wanted to commend you for sharing what’s been happening and being vulnerable . I send you and your family virtual love and send well wishes. Of course so much love to Laganja as well in her transition
Thank you for talking about how refreshing Espana is. I've never seen such in-depth critiques from judges for the high and low queens. When the judges from episode one say this will be difficult, it shows how talented and unique these set of queens are from the jump.
This hits home I’m in the same family stuff ugh Jo love you and love to hear ya open it I’m sure it feels good to let it out! Thanks for sharing ❤❤❤❤❤ xoxoxo
I know everybody always says that they want to move on to the drag race conversation but I'm over here captivated by the pre-show. I don't think ever related to a pair of people more than I ever have
Thank you for sharing your story Joseph! So many if us queer kids deal with that type of trauma and its not ok. But it’s also what makes us so resilient and find love within ourselves and our chosen families. And miss Laganja, you look SO BEAUTIFUL as usual but this transition period for you is just so beautiful to see. We love you both so much! ❤💚
Joseph, thank you for sharing your story about your mom. I can see it in your eyes, It's bewildering when your parents betray you the way she did on the phone. For her to tell you those hurtful things and then to bring in abortion and things like that, which is a heated topic right now in this country, when women are dying all over the country.... Leaving their children behind with no mother, when they couldn't get the d and c they needed because of a miscarriage, these are Deaths that are preventable they are supporting and that is morbid. These are women who wanted to go on and have more babies but now they are dead and their children have no mother. They are pro-birth and pro-death of a cult. It can leave you bewildered and sad. My father and I do not speak anymore, after many arguments where politics got involved where my rights were on the line and he seems to favor someone who is an immoral, cheat and bigot. Bigot. I have had to seek therapy myself because the things our parents do to us. Sometimes we just need to undo it and not let them do it anymore and that may mean not even speaking to them. Sometimes they have to figure their own s*** out. You are a beautiful person and you're doing your thing. Please listen to me. I'm 45. Keep Doing your thing. Never let people get in your way because of their own problems. I'm glad she at least brought you into the world so you can be here doing exactly what you're doing, shining your light in our culture.❤
As an older queer I really hoped things had gotten better/easier for those younger. I had the shadow of my relationship with my parents cast over every part of my life. No matter how much it was discussed they never believed it was just incidental and ok that I was gay. The day I stopped prioritising their feelings over mine was when life began improving. I'm sorry Joseph that you had to deal with your mums behaviour, thank you so much for sharing that, I'm sure many relate. Congratulations to Laganja, girl you look beautiful. X
Interesting how you two bookended the show talking about your mothers, with very different perspectives. Joseph, I hope you can take some quality time for yourself to unpack that situation and arrive at a solution that works for you. It's really tough to deal with that kind of comment/attitude from a parent. Ganj, looking gorgeous and love your positive outlook. I always look forward to QO and hope you both can continue with it, I like getting an hour of you two just chilling and chatting!
Thank you so much for sharing about your mother, my mother is the same way and hearing you makes me understand I am okay and it is okay to set boundaries with her ❤
Kitty winning over Nelly and Pythia both queens who delivered more in the snatch game and runway was shocking but hey favoritism. Especially since they cut Ru having sm praise for Pythia that was mentioned by Tessa when she said it was the best critiques anyone in the competition has gotten so far. Like they cut that to justify Kitty winning no doubt.
Omg I hate this for Joseph…sounds like conversations I would have with my parents when I was younger and they were drinking. It truly is traumatizing. ❤ and can I just say…I could watch you guys for hours whether you talk about drag race or not. Love listening to you guys chat, it’s just two friends talking and I love it. I know sounds weird since I was the one who asked for longer clips of the drag race girls when you guys give your opinion but that’s ONLY because I just watch for you two, but if I have to listen about drag race I want to at least be able to see the looks since I am not watching this season 😂
Joseph: What you experienced is emotional abuse and it is not OK. Ever. Full stop. It took me 30 years to get the help I needed for a similar situation. I hope you’re able to get the support you need from your therapist. Give yourself grace and remember that opinions will never represent what you know to be true about yourself. I’m thinking of you. Hugs from Canada.
Omg that got VERY DEEP but keep doing what you are doing because it does help people...I have a lot of trauma because of an absentee junkie prostitute mother who committed suicide after finding out I was gay but it has caused me to build the best relationships in the world with my sister and partner because I know what I cannot have in my relationships
This is the best episode to date! Thank you for your vulnerability . I can relate to you both so much. Love the drag race talk but the beginning resonated beyond measure. Thank you both!
Hi Joseph, I endured a lot of emotional and verbal abuse growing up with my Mom. Per suggestion of my therapist, I had a talk with my Mom standing up for myself and set boundaries with her. I also said that I have to distant myself for the sake of my mental health if things don’t change. It was so empowering for me, it felt good and freeing. And since then My Mom has made some improvements. I just want to say to you, its okay to distance yourself for the sake of your own mental health. You are not alone in your trauma, much love to you ❤
Drag race Italia has the most interesting sings for lipsyncs from movies, kids shows, as well as top of the charts pop. But then, España and Italia are the best two franchises...and Thailand
In the snatch game, i think its good that the person behind the sugarwall gets a slight introduction. Just imagine, hearing blindly monkey sounds from kween kong, thinking she some sort of animal activist or banana lady XD
Honestly the best part of these for me are talking about how you both have been at the beginning. I've struggled with anxiety and depression a lot of my life and now im beginning to think there's an underlying personality disorder like borderline. Involves substance abuse, splitting on someone- they go from the perfect person to a complete enemy. Dbt therapy can help a lot to the point where relationships can become more stable. Honestly so many people have this and OCPD but they've never heard of it before. I wish school taught this stuff. Glad that Laganja is recovering well! Your both looking good!
The purpose of introducing the queens to the Snatchelor, is so that each queen can have a funny exit. Not everyone takes advantage of it, but Naomi Smalls did.
The runway "eat me" did not specify that the queens had to reference a food from their culture. And it shouldn't. The queens should be able to do what ever food they want.
Please please please, we need MORE of laganja and Joseph talk!! Let's forget about Dragrace for once.. Thank you so much for always keeping it real and vulnerable, it helps alot of us out there ❤
I would listen to an entire hour of them just talking!!
100% agree!!! So much more interesting hearing them talk about non-drag race stuff
Can we all agree the 1st section of the video is way more enjoyable and entertaining than the drag race talk. I NEED just you being friends talking
Well yes
RUclips hasn’t suggested your videos for ages. Liking and commenting so the algorithm brings me back to your thighs.
Something is oddly wrong. Ive noticed it too.
@@JosephAShepherd Thank you for this video. I am so excited for upcoming episodes of Queening Out . In case you do not know who I am, My name is Chrissy and I am a straight teenage fan of yours and you are so talented.

Joseph's short is shortening 😂❤
and I'm here for it
Well yes
Yeah, and it’s disgusting
@@rodsalomon6524legs are disgusting? 🫥
Hot 🥵🥳🤩
Wow. That intro chat was intense.
Thank you for sharing, Joseph. Hope you're both continuing to heal and feeling better.
Love you both and feel privileged to witness your friendship. Stay strong and know that your fans adore you both and are grateful for your weekly videos. Cheers~
You both look gorgeous!! But can we talk about Joseph’s legs situation!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Right?
Omg, Joseph! Much love to you! That was a lot, indeed. I'm really sorry you had to go through this. But know that your work and the personal experiences you shared with us are very inspiring. Thank your for that! ❤ Also, Laganja was so sweet in your interaction. I'm glad you were able to have this conversation.
Scorpio hereee. Love that you really read everything😭😭 Happy for the aire time
My fav part is the beginning when you two catch up. Loving hearing about Laganja’s journey. She looks amazing!
Loving your shorts, and glad Laganja is healing well.
Okayyyy the opening shot of Joseph, as a fan, thank you! Only critique is potentially the laptop blocking something kind of thick and juicy
Who-ee!! I'm shorting out every time I look at Joseph in his short shorts!! ⚡⚡
As your mother, and someone who lives in Louisiana, I will send you a King Cake next Mardi Gras season! They usually start popping up around January.
So happy for you, Laganja! You look beautiful and happy!
#MathewShepard
I disowned my family when I was 16.
I just couldn’t take their critiques any longer.
It wasn’t because I’m gay that they’d criticise me,they criticised me because I existed!
From the day I walked away from them I’ve felt free. No more guilt trips,no more questioning myself and no more having a fake sense of duty to them.
I’m 23 now and I haven’t seen my family in 7 years and I couldn’t be happier
We didn’t ask to be born. Once they bring us into this world they should give us unconditional love,a sense of safety and well being not emotionally kick us!
Ask yourself this, if your mother wasn’t your mother would you want to know her?
You have people who love you and you love back. You owe your mother NOTHING‼️
Good luck and remember what ever anyone says you deserve love and happiness. Don’t let someone’ else’s own self loathing stop you from being glorious

Although the outfit did not capture this, Mexican chocolate is indeed a very cultural thing.
I am so much more invested in hearing you both talk about your life/experiences than I am about this season of drag race
Laganja is healing so amazingly and she’s still working post surgery , a true queen and icon for the people
39:19 I love a conscious American citizen, hahahahah ❣️
@joseph thank you for feeling that you could share such a personal story. I think I speak for most who watch when I say you are supported & loved by chosen family & internet friends. I personally would be willing to hold safe space for u or anyone going through something similar. ❤

Come through short shorts! 🤣🤣🤣
Can we have an episode of just talk? Love drag race but there's so much of it. The catching up segments are such good tv. 🎉❤
Joseph just wanted to commend you for sharing what’s been happening and being vulnerable . I send you and your family virtual love and send well wishes. Of course so much love to Laganja as well in her transition
To LaGanja I know how hard it can be to remove weed from your life and you’re inspiring me to get back on track
Thank you for talking about how refreshing Espana is. I've never seen such in-depth critiques from judges for the high and low queens. When the judges from episode one say this will be difficult, it shows how talented and unique these set of queens are from the jump.
Promise I didn't zoom in on Joseph's tiny shorts 😂😂😂
47:35 it's just the normal thing when you have a pee pee, you're going to have to try to suck it, at one point or another, hahahahah ❣️
It would be so cool for you to have international guests! Maybe through videocall
This hits home
I’m in the same family stuff ugh Jo love you and love to hear ya open it I’m sure it feels good to let it out! Thanks for sharing ❤❤❤❤❤ xoxoxo
I know everybody always says that they want to move on to the drag race conversation but I'm over here captivated by the pre-show. I don't think ever related to a pair of people more than I ever have
Definitely here for the two of you
The only thing worse than the SGOL, is the “Sea Snatch” or whatever the one that was a Snatch Game variant on a boat.
I urban dictionnaried "the h word" and settled perplexfully on Hell 😂
Thank you for sharing your story Joseph! So many if us queer kids deal with that type of trauma and its not ok. But it’s also what makes us so resilient and find love within ourselves and our chosen families. And miss Laganja, you look SO BEAUTIFUL as usual but this transition period for you is just so beautiful to see. We love you both so much! ❤💚
The way Joseph said Pavlova KILLED me lmaooo
CAN WE TALK ABOUT HOW GOOD LAGANJA LOOKS??
DAMN Joseph, that made me tear up😢 I'm so so sorry and also cause i can relate. ❤😘
Haha I think the Spain judges boys are married that’s why they have the same last name 😂
Praying for your fast healing and recovery Queen Leganja 👼🙏🏽❤️🫡🌈

It very much feels like Alyssa is working with a much bigger budget than the other queens. 😂
Rumors are that the stipend for runways were well different depending on the girl
Thank you so much for sharing about your mother, my mother is the same way and hearing you makes me understand I am okay and it is okay to set boundaries with her ❤
Kitty winning over Nelly and Pythia both queens who delivered more in the snatch game and runway was shocking but hey favoritism.

honestly, its pretty late for talkin about the last episode ...but its never too late to watch Jopsehs legs in those tight shorts...
My eyes zeroed in on those immediately!
Joseph: What you experienced is emotional abuse and it is not OK. Ever. Full stop. It took me 30 years to get the help I needed for a similar situation. I hope you’re able to get the support you need from your therapist. Give yourself grace and remember that opinions will never represent what you know to be true about yourself. I’m thinking of you.

im here for joseph's strong thigh game. woof man.
Respectfully staring at Joseph's legs every chance I get 😻
Gangita mia you always look fab and beaming ..happy you are doing great after the operation ..sending you tons of love❤🧡💚💙
Kkkkkkkkk Joseph is killing me, lmao the A on Varo sound the same as the A on Gala, lord Jesus
Can you record a video and send it to the laganjoes@gmail.com to help me pronounce please. lol.
Every episode I'm enjoying more the view Joseph is providing us 🤭
I cant wait for you Delta interview!!! ❤❤❤
Love you both from Milan ❤😘❤️🙏🏽🥂
Phillipones is one of the best franchises of all time. Incredible drag and amazing queens. Laganja should really give other franchises a shot
Omg that got VERY DEEP but keep doing what you are doing because it does help people...I have a lot of trauma because of an absentee junkie prostitute mother who committed suicide after finding out I was gay but it has caused me to build the best relationships in the world with my sister and partner because I know what I cannot have in my relationships
Wow Joseph hugs for you xxx
GANGA YOU LOOK GORGEOUS ✨🪭🪭🪭🪭Congratulations on your sobriety !! ♥️♥️♥️♥️
This is the best episode to date! Thank you for your vulnerability . I can relate to you both so much. Love the drag race talk but the beginning resonated beyond measure. Thank you both!
Laganja for All Stars 11! 😍

OMG STOP HAHAHA
Sorry to hear about your distant and abusive mother. She will regret treating you so poorly. Sending lots of hugs and support ❤️
Joseph there just shootin the beaver!!!! You better work! Yum
Joe is shopping in the kids department and having those short sown on at this point
Lol
Papi these shorts 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Love all the catching up etc in the beginning, fuck the crybaby crowd. They can skip ahead. 💚
The Swan was everything! They turned them out!
Nobody can talk to me about Alyssa either. She is walking charisma. I could watch her watch a pot boil and be engaged. Lol...I hope she wins.
❤ your honesty 💖
this is the pod where I think "Do you even watch the show Tamar??" the most 😂
😂😂😂😂 absolutely
Thank you for the tip on Drag Race Spain! I just watched and it was really good indeed! Thank you!!
You NEEDDD to review dragula season 6, that would be everything
83rd Hey, Joe ( Woof ) in those sexy shorts and Laganja! MWAHAH xo :)
YES! Finally addressing the thighs!!
Gala Vera, hahahahah ❣️
#YesWeHaveAllTriedIt 😂😂😂
If you like cheese then you’ve got to try Fourme D’Ambert
I am so excited for Joseph on Very Delta! 🔶🔶🔶
OMG SAME!!!! Joseph being on VERY DELTA is in fact… VERY DELTA!! ❤😂🎉
Honestly the best part of these for me are talking about how you both have been at the beginning.

The purpose of introducing the queens to the Snatchelor, is so that each queen can have a funny exit. Not everyone takes advantage of it, but Naomi Smalls did.
The Javis give the "are they siblings or a couple" vibe that I find very narcisistic
Not "Gala Vera" now... 🤭
comon spoiler alert!! but yes. brown hair will look stunting
I wonder if the bigger stars in Drag Race refuse compete against lesser known queens without some kind of guarantee 🧐
Don't worry about being biased toward Alyssa, Laganja. We all watch the show, we know what's going on there. :-)
I keep tuning in for Joseph’s thighs and calfs. ❤❤❤❤. 🔥🔥👏🏻
Joseph My Love… it’s Gala VARO (Va-Ro) 😊😅😘
That's not how you show someone to pronounce it. Because the A could be soft. It's pronounced: Gawl-uh Vaw-row.
The runway "eat me" did not specify that the queens had to reference a food from their culture. And it shouldn't. The queens should be able to do what ever food they want.
