This week, Emily and Carla snagged the Real Deal for a chat about her extraordinary life and how she became the inspiration for Bones. From her haunting accounts of real-life murder investigations, to juggling academia, forensics, fiction writing and motherhood, Kathy truly embodies Brennan’s “do-it-all” attitude and aptitude. Plus, she gives the inside scoop on the differences between the Brennan in her books and the Brennan we all know and love from the TV Series. Kathy has all the answers to your burning questions in this can’t-miss interview!

What’s better than one body in the lab? Two bodies in the lab! The Booth and Brennan Love Meter is off the charts in this pivotal and memorable episode featuring a dead mob boss, a sadistic serial killer and a corrupt FBI agent. Despite the gunshots and exploding refrigerators, the real action is between our two co-stars with enough tension to make anyone “hot-blooded” (cue the air guitar). Emily bravely recounts her near-miss with a flaming stunt double (yikes!) and analyzes the early signs of Booth and Brennan's feelings for each other. And because we like to keep things real, Carla regales us with the thrilling saga of her colonoscopy prep, reminding us all about the importance of preventative care.

Oh gosh, there are too many mysteries to count in this episode! The team is called to a fairway to confirm the victims of a small private plane crash, only to find two mysterious victims: one who wasn’t supposed to be on the plane and one from long before the crash. Then there's Jesse Kane, the handsome, brooding enigma who might have killed his dad and definitely has a crush on Brennan. Emily and Carla ponder all their own lingering queries, including this episode's iconic (horrific) use of a woodchipper, and discuss the logistics on various filming locations. But the biggest question of all hangs heavy in the air: Can Booth finally help Brennan uncover the mystery of her missing parents?

Prepare for a thorough examination of how Bones came to be! In this episode we sit down with Executive Producer Barry Josephson as he shares the inside scoop on when he first encountered Kathy Reichs's thrilling novels (spoiler alert: he knew it was gold), the early days of production, and the unforgettable first chemistry read between Emily and David Boreanaz. We'll also hear some surprising stories about Barry’s career, including his time as Whoopi Goldberg's roommate! Emily and Carla discover behind-the-scenes secrets they never knew, and learn more about why we should all be eternally grateful to this man. No Barry, No Bones! So listen up!

It’s a gritty case this week full of gangs, gardens and guns galore. Not without its cringe moments, at the core of this week’s episode is a still-relevant exploration of the tough choices immigrant families are forced to make. After checking in with each other about the L.A. wildfires, Emily and Carla dig in on this horticultural episode, unearthing plenty of cold goss (bad wigs, vegan pupusas), and Emily learns just how young Carla was when she began her professional acting career. Grab your trowel, everyone, and let’s get in the weeds on Bones!

RIP to Jeannot Szwarc. We’ll miss you!

Brennan and Booth are here to save the day (as always) in this comic-book-themed episode about a young, nerdy “superhero” who died protecting others. Emily has plenty of cold goss, including why she was in tears while filming, and how Aaron Paul’s guest appearance as a morose comic store owner/artist with swoopy bangs might have launched his career. Plus, Carla recounts working with Aaron years later on a huge blockbuster. Later on, this episode’s writer, Elizabeth Benjamin, calls in from her writers room during lunch break to give her insights on how they created such a fully realized world for the comics-obsessed teens at the center of the story. 

Please note: Emily and Carla recorded this episode before the Los Angeles wildfires began. You'll hear them talk about a recent audition which happened a few weeks ago. Emily and Carla are safe and their hearts are with the rest of their LA community.

We are so thrilled to be joined today by Eric Millegan — that’s right, the one and only Zackaroni, Zack Addy! Emily and Eric’s friendship has endured long after the cameras stopped rolling, and it’s time for them to catch up, reminisce and gossip. Eric recounts the story of the charmed trip to LA when he landed the role of Zack, and how it all coincided with his diagnosis and treatment for bipolar disorder. Emily and Eric share plenty of stories from set, and Eric explains how it all went down when he found out he wasn’t going to be a series regular. Plus, Carla discusses why she feels her (and her character’s) fate is so entwined with Eric’s. It’s an all Zack-cess interview with everyone’s favorite genius (who can’t drive)!

Today we’re sharing an episode of a show we think you’ll love! It’s called Fail Better and it’s hosted by David Duchony from the X Files and Californication. Fail Better focuses on our collective fear of failure through conversations with artists, athletes, actors, writers, and more about how it’s actually failure – not success – that shapes who we are. Each week, he will chat with guests like Ben Stiller, Rosie O’Donnell, Bette Midler and more about how our perceived failures have actually been catalysts for growth, revelation, and even healing.

In this episode, David chats with Gillian Anderson, the Dana Scully to his Fox Mulder. The two X Files co-stars got a chance to open up about the ways they might have failed one another during that wild ride, and examine the ways they’ve grown since.

This week, we’re sharing a show called Born To Love. It’s hosted by Ellie Kemper (from The Office and Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt) and her fantastically funny friend, Scott Eckert. And on this show, people talk about what they love!

Every week, Ellie and Scott sit down with a special guest, and the whole episode is focused on that guest’s secret passion, their favorite hobby, or whatever makes them light up. These are the kinds of conversations where you find out a whole new side of people you thought you knew. Like, Jenna Fischer is obsessed with Keanu Reeves movies, and Randall Park just ran the NYC Marathon.

In this episode of Born to Love, you’ll hear from Brian Baumgartner, otherwise known as Kevin from The Office. After you hear this episode, search for Born to Love wherever you get your podcast or head to https://lemonada.lnk.to/BornToLovefd

It’s our first ride-along episode! And it’s about a car! Perfect. To help break down this action-packed and emotionally driven episode, Emily and Carla are joined by Dwight Little, who directed a whopping 23 episodes over the span of the series. Dwight shares plenty of insights from decades in the film and television industry, including how he first got started on Bones by directing this very episode. The three of them unpack the ways Season 1 was still searching for the right tone, and the stellar performances that made this a standout episode.
