Arizona Tribune - RuPaul's Drag Race Royalty Bob The Drag Queen & Monét X Change
Bring Their Hit Podcast Sibling Rivalry to Libsyn

"There's no formula for what Bob and Monét do, they're just two of the funniest people in the room and their audience never skips an episode," said Stephen Perlstein, Senior Vice President of Business Development at Libsyn. "We're proud to host and monetize Sibling Rivalry, and to put that loyal fan base in front of brands who want in on the fun."

Bob The Drag Queen and Monét X Change added, "We've spent years laughing, oversharing, arguing, and somehow turning it all into a hit podcast people actually want to watch and listen to. Partnering with Libsyn gives us the tools, distribution, and advertising support to keep growing Sibling Rivalry across audio and video while staying exactly as chaotic as our audience expects."

Sibling Rivalry creates a highly engaged listening and viewing environment where audiences come for the comedy but stay for the dynamic between two of drag's biggest stars - offering a compelling setting for brands looking to connect with culturally connected, highly active consumers. Hosted by RuPaul's Drag Race Season 8 winner Bob The Drag Queen and Season 10 Miss Congeniality and All Stars 4 winner Monét X Change, the show delivers an intensely hilarious mix of comedy, culture, and pop commentary. Despite the title, the two aren't actually related, but their sister-like banter, constant debates, and unfiltered conversations have helped build a devoted fan base and a catalog reach exceeding 100,000.

Whether discussing drag culture, celebrity feuds, internet obsessions, or deeply specific topics like bidets, robots, and hypothetical life dilemmas, Bob and Monét transform everyday conversations into laugh-out-loud entertainment. Sometimes the show is audio-only, sometimes it expands into special video episodes on YouTube - but one thing remains consistent: it's always funny. The result is a show that blends humor, authenticity, and cultural relevance in a way that keeps audiences coming back and actively engaging across platforms. It's also earned more than devoted fans - Sibling Rivalry received the 2023 GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding Podcast and the 2023 Webby People's Voice Award for Podcasts: Diversity, Equity & Inclusion.

Bob The Drag Queen is a Peabody Award-winning entertainer, New York Times bestselling author, comedian, television personality, and producer.

Monét X Change is an R&B vocalist, comedian, classically trained opera singer, and television personality born and raised in New York City.
