OATL34: Nancy Montoya!!! Live Music from Slow Motion Cowboys!
Episode 9
Friday, 23 May, 2025

Queen of Krewe of Dreux (and basically the universe), Nancy Montoya pops into the King Room to talk to Howie and Scully about how much she loves the Lounge. She shares how the late Gilbert Lopez introduced her to BJ's almost 30 years ago and how it remains dear to her heart. She tells of being a part of helping Carlos and Dewann re-open BJ's after Katrina and how the photo of her in a boy scout uniform in front of a tank with national guard soldiers came to be. She discusses the origins of the giant foam vagina she constructed for the "Pimps and Ho's" party she used to throw for her birthday (Breaking news: Its coming back this year!!!), how meeting Fabio at a Metairie mall in the 90's led to the creation of the Fabulous Hair Club for Men, and how she uses 70's porn as a sleep aid.
