Reception

[edit]

Noisey stated, "Honestly, this podcast slays the podcast game. After one hour of listening to RuPaul and Michelle Visage chat about sex, drugs, mental health, musicals, drag queens, Hollywood and the infinite wisdom of Judge Judy, you will feel as if your life is an empty vortex of nothingness when they are not making sounds into your ears."[2]

Hornet stated "Any Drag Race fan knows that if they want the scoop, they should listen to What's the Tee?"[8]

RuPaul: What's the Tee? won a Webby Award for Best Host in 2018, with both RuPaul and Visage being listed.[9][10] In 2017 and 2019 the podcast won the WOWIE Award for Best Podcast.[11][12] In 2020 the podcast was the runner-up for the Queerty Award in the Podcast category.[13]
