Host: We have Carson and Kyan, Queer Eye for the Straight Guy.
Carson: Hey! Good morning San Diego.
Host: What's up boys!
Carson: It's early there, isn't it?
Host: It sure is. And wet, very wet. How you guys doing?
Carson&Kyan: We're super, thanks for asking.
Kyan: Thank you.
Host: Man, we've been trying to get you guys on for years, for years.
Carson: You have? (laughs)
Host: Yeah, I'm such a fan, Carson I think you're the funniest guy on the TV.
Carson: Well thank you.
Host: And Kyan, I think you're the most beautiful guy on the TV.
Kyan: Aww, you're very sweet, thank you.
Carson: Are you hitting on us?
Host: Uh, maybe.
Carson: Okay. We can work with that.

Host: Man, honestly this is such a treat, who doesn't love Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. You guys amazed by the success of the show? You gotta be.
Carson: Yeah, we were pretty psyched about it.
Kyan: Yeah, we're so flattered by the cross section of people that really get into the show, I mean it's like, you know, black, white, gay, straight, male, female, young, old, it's just like everyone...
Carson: Amish. Even Amish people.
Kyan: Yeah.
Carson: Oh no wait they don't have TVs, I'm sorry, what was I thinking.

Host: You think you have more gay or straight fans out there?
Carson: Um, I think it's about probably even.
Kyan: I don't know.
Carson: You know so many people stop us in airports and everywhere, it's really a cross section of like, gay people, straight people, old ladies, little babies, everybody.
Host: Doesn't it get a little tiring, though, people pulling you aside and saying 'Kyan, help me with my hair' or 'Carson, what's up with my clothes,' it's gotta get old.
Carson: Well, no. I mean, you know I love all the attention. I'm a real attention hog, so I love it.
Host: No, you Carson?
Carson: Yeah, I mean, little old me?
Host: Nah.
Kyan: Hard to believe, isn't it?
Carson: Craz-ay.

Host: Anyone shock you, like a Hollywood type, or a well known celeb or name of someone who's in the, you know, just a pop culture type person who's a fan of the show, and you're like 'man, I would never have imagined that 'insert name' was a fan of Queer Eye for the Straight Guy.
Carson: Uuummmmm......
Kyan: I had a, I had a fun story. I was, um, I was in a restaurant and Julianne Moore was there and she was, she was so sweet and lovely and was, like, you know, stood up and gave me a hug and I was just sort of like, 'Who does she think I am?' And she loved the show and just wanted to say hello, it was really sweet.
Carson: Tell them your Nicole Kidman story.
Kyan: Yeah! I was, was with a friend at Nicole Kidman's house and she, you know, she didn't know who the hell I was, but someone said 'this is Kyan, he's on Queer Eye for the Straight Guy' and she turned and she said 'oh my God, you guys are huge!'
Carson: She was talking about your ass, actually. (Everyone laughs)
Kyan: And I thought, Nicole Kidman saying that I'm huge. Could somebody wake me up.
Host: Oh man, that is too cool.
Carson: Pinch me.

Host: When it comes to taping the episode, how long of a process is it to get that one episode done?
Carson: Well, it's one day, but it's like a day in Sweden, in July, it's a very long day. Um, actually it takes about two and a half days.
Host: Two and a half, so what, do you guys recycle the same clothes?
Carson: We do, can you believe that?
Host: Yeah, Carson I would think you'd have a problem with that.
Carson: Lots of dry cleaning involved.
Host: So do you guys so all the work, or do you have like a team of contractors come and help you guys out?
Carson: Um, we do most all of it ourselves. I mean, Thom has a crew of people that actually, you know, build things and paint and so on, but the rest of us really do everything ourselves.

Host: With you guys, with the Fab Five, were you guys friends beforehand or did you guys all meet on the show?
Carson: Um, we all met doing the show.
Host: Any relationships developing? Amongst the cast?
Carson: Between us?
Host: Yeah.
Kyan: Well, Carson and I are getting married, we're going to go to Canada, or Massachusetts...
Carson: California.
Kyan: ...California, we're just getting married in all the, um, any place that will have us.
Carson: Yeah. But other that that, no, no.
Kyan: Then I'm divorcing him and taking half, it'll be a lot of fun.
Carson: And then I'm going to charge alimony and take all of his hair care products.
Kyan: We're just going to work every single angle we can into it.

Host: Yes, speaking of Kyan there, and the hair care products, I do want to thank you, Kyan, because for years I was using the gel. I was using the gel...
Kyan: (deep sigh)
Host: I know...
Kyan: I'm so... You're off the gel, right?
Host: I'm off the gel because of you, seriously.
Kyan: You're a recovering gel addict.
Host: My fiancee actually came home with some new gel and I was like 'babe, what are you thinking getting this stuff, I want pomade.'
Carson: There you go.
Host: And I start in the back, go to the front, you taught me how to shave.
Kyan: How's it working out for you?
Host: Wonderful. Now if you could just help me get my hair back. That's a whole other thing. (Kyan laughs) Carson you taught me how to tszuj...
Carson: You're tszujing?
Host: I'm tszujing now because of you.
Carson: Oh, God love you.
Other Host: What is tszujing?
Host: Carson?
Carson: What is tszujing? Tszujing is just, uh, by definition it's just to tweak or make better, and you can tszuj your hair, or tszuj your clothes, or tszuj your house. Just tszuj away!
Kyan: Tszuj away.
Carson: Tszuj with reckless abandon!
Kyan: Tszuj not lest ye be tszujed.
Carson: Exactly.

Host: Now out of all the episodes on Queer Eye, who was your favorite subject?
Carson: Um, I really liked the cop from Staten Island, because he was kind of a challenge.
Host: He was great.
Carson: How about you, Kyan?
Kyan: I, you know Richard Miller, the guy who took off his rug, is sort of near to my heart because that takes a lot of courage, and he really just gave himself over to the process, he had a lot of courage, and he still not wearing his toupee, so I'm very proud of him.
Host: We have someone down here by the name of Lee Hacksaw Hamilton, we'd like you to come and do the same thing.
Carson: His name is Hacksaw?
Host: Hacksaw, yeah. He works on the sports station.
Carson: Mmm.
Kyan: Sounds scary.
Host: If you could put his toupee on the grill.
Carson: Does he have a face made for radio? With a name like Hacksaw?
Host: He sure does.
Carson: Okay. Well, we'd love to come help Hacksaw.

Host: I've been wondering forever guys, I don't follow the show as closely as my cohorts here, but remember the rumors that someone on the show was straight?
Other Host: That was Thom.
Kyan: Yeah.
Host: Is it true though?
Carson: Yes it is, I am. (Everyone laughs) I have been battling rumors of hetereosexuality since the third grade, and...
Kyan: You know it's really annoying. Carson's girlfriend, she like hangs out on the set, in the trailer...
Carson: I know. I have a baby, and a Jack Russell terrier. I'm just such a, a yuppie, I have to load up my Range Rover right now.
Host: What about you, Kyan, do you have more women, or guys approaching you?
Kyan: Well, I think, I think um, the women come up and say how much they like me, the straight guys approach me, but I can't get a date to save my life.

Host: Now why don't you guys come out here, why are all the installments on the East Coast? We want a West Coast edition of Queer Eye, is that going to happen?
Kyan: So do I.
Carson: I know. Right about now we'd love to be in San Diego. But I think we are taking the show on the road this summer, we're going to Texas, and hopefully, you know maybe we'll just get in the Denali and just keep driving.
Host: Yeah, we'd love to have you out here. Now I understand you guys have a book that you would like to talk about?
Carson: Yeah, we have a new book called Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, it's a guide to looking better, and behaving better, and cooking better and all that good stuff, and it's in bookstores now, and it's just a great resource for straight guys, and straight gals, to um, look better and feel better.

Female Host: Hey guys, I'm Jen and I just really quickly have got to say hello, because I am absolutely obsessed with you, if I knew where you lived I would be a stalker.
Host: Jen was the first fan of the show, as far as everyone in this room goes, she was watching it from day one. She actually got me hooked.
Carson: Then Jen must be a very quick study.
Jen: And Carson, I would love for you to come to my home and be my personal stylist, go through my clothes, and Kyan, if you ever, ever decide to have sex with a woman, I want to be there for you.
Kyan: Been there and done that one, when I was a young kid, and I don't think I'm going back, I'm sorry.
Carson: But we'll put you on the waiting list.
Jen: Kyan, please.
Host: Put you on the waiting list. (laughs) Well thank you so much guys, we really appreciate it, we'd really love to have you guys on again in the future.
Kyan: Thanks, guys.
Carson: We'd love it.
Host: Queer Eye for the Straight Guy the book is out now. Carson, Kyan, best of luck for the future. Carson&Kyan: Thank you.
