Roll Out the Red Carpet, Ross Mathews Has Something to Slay!

Raised By Ricki with Ricki Lake and Kalen Allen

When Ross Mathews was a kid, he would watch The Ricki Lake Show and pretend to host the show alongside Ricki. Now he's one of the most beloved personalities on TV, currently serving as a judge on RuPaul's Drag Race and co-hosting The Drew Barrymore Show. Talk about manifestation! Ross tells Ricki and Kalen about his successful decades-long career on screen, including how an internship with Jay Leno turned into the opportunity of a lifetime. He shares the pressures he felt as a young queer host, how he established himself in daytime and late night TV, and won the hearts of millions of people across America. Also, Ricki and Kalen react to the Grammys and Kalen updates us on his quest for Beyoncé tickets.

Please note, Raised By Ricki contains mature themes and may not be appropriate for all listeners.
