Glamorous Trash is all about going high and low at the same time— Glam and Trash. We recap and book club celebrity memoirs, deconstruct pop culture, and sometimes, we cry! If you've ever referenced Mariah Carey in therapy... then this is the podcast for you.

Chelsea and “The Plus One Club” host Nicole Boyd dive into the memoir of “Even Stevens” and “Kim Possible” star Christy Carlson Romano, which might’ve set the record for the most DRINGOS in an episode. They unpack Christy’s “run-ins” with other child stars like Scarlett Johansson, Shia LaBeouf, Hilary Duff, and Lindsay Lohan. Plus: why a college essay tutor named Myra is the devil, and how Mandy Moore laughed weirdly once, only to catch a mean girl headline about it 20 years later!

Chelsea’s back with hot topics and takes for the Cookie Jar! Chelsea and producer Kristina unpack the new “East of Eden” adaptation, dive into the highlights and lowlights from the Hulu doc on the 2000s nightmare “The Swan,” and offer up memoir reading recs for Alix Earle that aren’t Dr. Seuss. Plus: “Dancing With The Stars” favorites, upcoming memoirs for the podcast, movies we watched, and a celeb tattoo cover-up that left Chelsea speechless.

Modeling! Fake degrees! Twin weddings! And a lot of soup! “Corporate Gossip” host Becca Platsky, and “Fixing Famous People” host Chris DeRosa join Chelsea to take you to hell and back with their recap of Maye Musk’s monster mom-oir!

A content warning: This episode contains discussions of sensitive topics, including  child sexual abuse, domestic violence, racism, and diet culture. Take care while listening and find helpful resources here.

Glamorous Trash is all about going high and low at the same time— Glam and Trash. We recap and book club celebrity memoirs, deconstruct pop culture, and sometimes, we cry! If you've ever referenced Mariah Carey in therapy... then this is the podcast for you.

Chelsea and author Courtney Kocak dive into actor, writer, and director Jennifer Esposito's part memoir, part cookbook "Jennifer's Way." They unpack Jennifer's rise to fame in films like "Crash," her journey with celiac disease (including the time a tooth fell out on the set of "Samantha Who?"), her visit to a psych ward, and a few theories about her exit from "Blue Bloods." Plus: the tea on her ex-husband, Bradley Cooper, and a deep dive into her feature film debut, “Fresh Kills,” and everything it takes to make a film in this wild industry.

Chelsea welcomes back Quincie Zari to dive into the memoir of rapper and actor Gucci Mane. From changing the trap music genre to the infamous ice cream tattoo to his incarceration, Quincie unpacks Gucci’s career. Plus: he shouts out Britney Spears and the similarities when he faced his own threatening conservatorship.

If you hate reality TV, this book is for you. If you love it, it is also for you!! Chelsea welcomes back 2 Black Girls, 1 Rose hosts Justine Kay and Natasha Scott-Reichel to do our first-ever fiction book club on the reality show-inspired novel “The Compound” by Aisling Rawl. They unpack the haunting similarities to “Love Island,” what the dark parts of reality TV reflect about our lives today, and why the main character is almost impossible to cast (but send us your suggestions!). Plus: Why we miss monoculture and why Chelsea just can’t quit “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives.”

Barely Any Gen Zers Want to Be Influencers - Cosmopolitan

The Marilyn Frye quote Chelsea reads in the episode:

“To say that straight men are heterosexual is only to say that they engage in sex (fucking exclusively with the other sex, i.e., women). All or almost all of that which pertains to love, most straight men reserve exclusively for other men. The people whom they admire, respect, adore, revere, honor, whom they imitate, idolize, and form profound attachments to, whom they are willing to teach and from whom they are willing to learn, and whose respect, admiration, recognition, honor, reverence and love they desire… those are, overwhelmingly, other men...”

Chelsea welcomes back Prose & Glow founder Julia Washington to recap “Little House on the Prairie” star Alison Arngrim’s memoir “Confessions of a Prairie Bitch.” They dive into Alison’s truly wild tales from the set of TV’s most wholesome show, the warning co-star Melissa Gilbert gave her about another cast member, how Alison embraced being one of TV’s most iconic mean girls, and the childhood traumas that led to her advocacy work. Plus: A divorce by fax, a child stunt gone wrong, and a magician jump scare.  

Chelsea and producer Kristina discuss Dolly Parton and Hayden Panettiere, sharing new stories, updates, and what has impacted us so deeply. Wes Perry returns with highlights from Tim Curry’s memoir, including who inspired his terrifying Pennywise expressions. Plus: New TV reccs (like “Furious” on Hulu), several updates on Hollywood's sons, and a scam update on the “Rich Dad, Poor Dad” that’s made Chelsea plot revenge.

Chelsea shares some thoughts on the passing of Dolly Parton before we REPLAY this episode from 2021 where Chelsea and writer Joanna Quraishi ("The Big Show Show," "Weird Loners," "Head of the Class") unpack the creativity and contradictions of Dolly Parton, from her legendary songwriting and underrated comedic genius to her absolute refusal to give up on her dreams.
