  • Crime, Con Games & A Rose Queen’s Nightmare: The Wild Story of BH

    You think you’ve met a smooth-talking con artist? Think again. This guy makes Hollywood scammers look like amateurs. Marley sits down with private investigator Nils B. Grevillius and filmmaker Joe Cornet to unravel the wild, jaw-dropping saga of “BH”—the Pasadena fraudster who scammed millions, manipulated his way into high society, and even posed as an undercover Navy SEAL.

    From mortgage fraud and fake White House connections to assaulting his girlfriend, BH’s rap sheet reads like a movie script. But it gets worse—when he finally landed behind bars, he hatched a plot to have his ex and her kids taken out. His mistake? Hiring the wrong guy… and leaving behind 38 pages of detailed murder instructions.

    This episode is packed with crime, deception, and the kind of real-life drama that makes you question how people like this keep getting away with it. If you love stories of frauds, fakes, and justice served (or not), buckle up—this one even took a Rose Queen for a ride.

  • From Royal Drama to Salt-Baked Fish: The Meghan Markle Obsession Continues

    Meghan Markle is back on Netflix “With Love, Meghan” , and so is the internet’s favorite pastime—tearing her apart. But is all the outrage about the show itself, or is this just another excuse to drag the Duchess?

    Daily Mail journalist Ellen Manning joins Marley to break down the spectacle surrounding "With Love, Meghan" —from the recipes (is salt-baked fish the next big thing or just another overhyped trend?) to the curated perfection of her beige-hued lifestyle. They talk about the internet’s obsession with picking apart everything from her Le Creuset cookware pronunciation to her Loro Piana wardrobe choices and whether the backlash says more about Meghan… or the people watching.

    But here’s the real question: Is this show actually any different from the countless other celebrity lifestyle brands out there? Or does Meghan get an entirely different level of scrutiny simply because she’s Meghan? Ellen shares her experience testing out the recipes firsthand, explains why people either love or loathe Meghan, and reveals what it’s really like covering the royal family in the British press.

    Is Meghan redefining the modern homemaker, or are we all just hate-watching out of habit? And more importantly—should you be making your own Epsom salts or just buying them like the rest of us?

    Press play and decide for yourself!

  • Bank Robberies, Story Slams & the Wild Truths We All Carry

    What happens when the stories you tell yourself are holding you back, you’re stuck in patterns you don’t even realize, and—oh yeah—someone at your local storytelling event casually drops that they met their partner online and started robbing banks together? Yes, really!!

    Marley is joined by Michelle Bias, co-founder of Tulsa’s “OK, SO Storyslam”, intergenerational trauma expert, and someone who has spent years helping people rewrite their narratives—sometimes literally, sometimes on stage with a mic in hand. They talk about the wild, hilarious, and heart-wrenching stories people share, why some folks can win a “Storyslam” without even practicing, and how storytelling can actually be a form of therapy (minus the couch and co-pay).

    Of course, because it’s Every Day’s A Train Wreck, things take a turn when Michelle explains why we’re all walking around stuck in the same loops from childhood, how tiny moments from the past shape everything, and why pushing through is sometimes the worst thing you can do. And just when Marley thought this episode couldn’t get any better, Michelle reveals how she ended up writing “String Theory”, a book that mirrors the way our memories actually hit us—unexpected, fragmented, and sometimes way too real.

    If you’ve ever wondered why you keep repeating the same patterns (or why you can’t let go of that one thing that happened in third grade), this one’s for you. Hit follow, leave a five-star review, and tell Marley which story from this episode had you thinking “Wait… am I in a loop?”

    Michelle Bias is Co-Founder of OK, So Storyslam. She is an Intergenerational Trauma Expert and Systemic Constellations Practitioner, and author of "String Theory, A Life" Michelle holds a master's degree in transpersonal psychology.

  • Feng Shui Heists, Manifestation Mishaps & High-Society Chaos with Laura Maloney

    Think you know how to throw a party? Think again. Laura Maloney is a polo-world insider, event-planning queen, and the woman behind the legend of “Mandiego” (yes, her husband is absurdly hot). One night, she’s engineering a secret rockstar performance or breaking into an office for a Feng Shui heist to sell a multi-million dollar company. The next, she’s dodging Pilates instructors with bad intentions and throwing polo parties so wild even the chef tries to steal her menu.

    But it’s not just about luxury and logistics—Laura spills the tea on how to create unforgettable experiences (hint: invite a billionaire AND the guy who married a former porn star), why Argentine polo players are always off-limits, and how to balance chaos with serious strategy.

    This episode is equal parts **party-planning masterclass, polo drama, and manifestation misfire—**including how Marley accidentally face-planted off a horse after renaming her book Epic Faceplants (whoops).

    Laura Maloney has spent decades curating elite events, navigating high-society shenanigans, and proving that the best parties aren’t just about money—they’re about the perfect mix of chaos and chemistry. If you’re ready for an inside look at the wild world of polo, power, and party-planning gone right (and very wrong), buckle up—this one’s a ride. 🥂🔥

    Laura Maloney was born on May 21, 1963, and grew up in Woodstock, NY. She developed a passion for riding, acting, and community theater in high school. After being unexpectedly kicked out of her parents' home, she spent 12 years in an unhealthy relationship before building a career in automotive sales.

    Her life took a positive turn when she met her husband, a software entrepreneur and polo player, during a work meeting. Together, they have built a fulfilling life, raising two successful children.

    An avid equestrian, Laura rides dressage nearly every day and enjoys outdoor activities like skiing, wake surfing, and spending time in nature. She is also scuba-certified, though diving doesn’t come naturally to her.

    In early 2024, she suffered a serious fall from her horse, resulting in a hip replacement, but has since made a strong recovery. She is always hands-on with projects and recently found herself stepping into activism due to challenging events.

    She and her husband, affectionately called “Man Diego,” lead a life full of adventure, balancing work, passion, and a love for animals—except for birds and reptiles!

  • Rebranding, Resets & Raising Chickens: The Creative Chaos of Entrepreneurship with Merri Jill Finstrom

    What happens when your entire business needs a rebrand, you’re pivoting careers, and you’re still figuring out what the hell you’re doing? Marley Majcher sits down with longtime friend and creative collaborator Merri Jill Finstrom to unpack the messy, hilarious, and unexpected journey of reinvention. From launching The Party Goddess! to sketching logos over lunch and obsessing over the perfect shade of pink, they dive into the real-life creative process behind branding and reinvention.

    But it’s not all strategy and color swatches—Marley and MJ reminisce about early entrepreneurial struggles, raising toddlers while building businesses, and why some of their best creative breakthroughs happened over carrot cake and passion fruit iced tea. They also get real about why today’s social media-driven world has made creativity feel disposable, and how going old school—flipping through design books, touching glossy pages, and wandering without a destination—can reignite inspiration.

    If you’re a business owner, an artist, or just someone trying to balance ambition with authenticity, this episode is packed with wisdom, laughs, and hard-earned lessons on pivoting, resilience, and the unexpected magic of saying yes to what lights you up.
