• Prepping for Tour (and Spooky Season).
    Jul 24 2025

    We’re back in the studio and finally dusting off the No Gorge camera. This week, we’re prepping for tour and catching up on everything we missed: broken business class seats, near-fights on planes, Fire Island infections, and one man’s breath that still haunts us.

    We break down what makes a DJ set actually work (hint: not overplanning), why lyrics matter, and how to survive a conversation with a drunk twink mid-mix.

    Also: Halloween is basically here, Spirit Halloween is live, and we may or may not be fighting again.

    Leave a comment if you've ever had to fake smile through rotting breath.

  • Jetlag, Rome, and Regret.
    Jul 17 2025

    This week, Violet checks in from Rome mid–Dolce & Gabbana takeover while Gottmik recovers from Australian jetlag and a full-blown existential spiral. We talk Fire Island hookups, disappearing djs, and what happens when someone shows up to your gig... after waking up in your bed.

    Also on the docket: Taylor Swift-themed cafés, Hailey Bieber smoothies, dogs ruining hookups, plant survival, and why everyone suddenly acts like an old lady. Plus, generational queer culture gaps — including people who’ve never seen Paris Is Burning (yes, really).

    If you've ever caught feelings mid–versace photoshoot or realized you're the only one who remembers the word banji, you’re in the right place.

  • Fire Island Reflections and Getting Kicked Out of Chanel.
    Jul 10 2025

    This week’s episode unpacks the curse of "appointment only" shopping and Fire Island underwear party... incidents. Gottmik spirals after being snubbed by every designer boutique in Australia and ends up with a spider tattoo instead. Meanwhile, Violet explores queer generational history at Fire Island, gets philosophical about drag, and runs into a certain dom who just... can’t.

    We break down the horrors of no follow spots at the gig, matching costumes in drag, and what it means to really have the urge to perform.

    If you’ve ever been denied entry at a Designer boutique door and spiritually nourished by a busted queen — this one’s for you.

  • Tickets, Trauma, and Time Zones.
    Jul 3 2025

    We’re on different sides of the planet, running on no sleep, retail therapy, and one... unforgettable New York experience.

    This week’s episode dives deep into dramatic door policies, why we don't wear nails in drag, being mistaken for Paris Hilton, and Beyoncé's high-flying incident. Violet breaks down the most chaotic party line of her life, Gottmik visits the Australian woods for hot yoga, and we both reflect on what drag is — and definitely isn’t.

    If you’ve ever been rejected by a queer party you were literally the target audience for... this one’s for you.

  • We Have an Announcement… and We’re Losing Our Minds.
    Jun 26 2025

    We’re running on zero sleep, back-to-back gigs, and one huge secret we’re finally ready to spill. This week’s episode is a full Pride Month meltdown: airport merch looks, drag race flashbacks, hot beanies in hotter weather — and the announcement we’ve been hinting at for months.

    We talk about what it actually takes to survive June in drag, why bar gigs aren’t the same as art, and why Drag Race never lets you go.

    If you’ve ever packed for three continents at once, worn your own face to the airport, or been accidentally outed as a Paris Hilton impersonator… this one’s for you.

  • Pride Month DJ Diaries.
    Jun 19 2025

    We’re on the road, in drag, and plugged into the decks. This week’s episode is a full breakdown of our DJ era: from LA, to Montpellier, to water bottle... emergencies at Alesso sets.

    We talk about the art of not planning a set, why lyrics are a must, and the fine line between a mix and a mess.

    If you've ever been stuck dancing to what sounds like a SpongeBob glitch remix or tried to cue a song mid-conversation with a drunk twink, this one’s for you.

  • Lost Bags, Found Drama.
    Jun 12 2025

    This week, we’re unpacking a chaotic travel saga that involves lost bags, train mishaps, and a $7,000 MacBook taking its own Italian vacation.

    We’re also diving into Pride month: the corporations that showed up, the ones that ghosted, and what it really means to support queer communities right now. Plus, we recap our DJ sets at WeHo Pride and shake up our limited-edition Diamond Faces cocktails.

    We’ve partnered with Virgin Hotels to create a special Pride cocktail menu available at select locations all summer long!

    A portion of proceeds from every drink goes directly to Trans Lifeline, a peer-led organization offering life-saving support.

  • that's SHOWBIZ baby.
    Jun 5 2025

    This week on No Gorge, it’s all about Hollywood, baby. We’re talking the showbiz fantasy, the reality behind it, and all the things we love and hate about the industry. From the glimmering highs to the straight-up clownery, we get into what’s really been tea in the biz.

    Mik shares his origin story, hustling in LA and making it happen. We’re spilling our best (and worst) celeb run-ins and pulling back the curtain on how fickle this industry can be.

    We also talk about what’s next, our dreams for where we want to take our artistry, what we’re manifesting, and how we’re thinking about the future.

    Plus, what we’ve been up to lately and our plans for Pride. Happy Pride Month!
