As a follow-up to our deep dive into Drew Barrymore’s pivotal year of 1993, we’re zooming in on two truly iconic magazine moments that helped define her image during that era. This week, we break down her May 1993 Seventeen cover and editorial—featuring a dreamy, beatnik-inspired spread shot by longtime collaborator Matthew Rolston—before getting into June 1993 Vogue, where Drew hits Coney Island in a playful, unforgettable shoot marking her first collaboration with Ellen von Unwerth.
Together, these features paint a fascinating snapshot of Drew at 18, with revealing interviews that touch on her painful breakup with Jamie Walters, her 1940s meets 1970s personal style, and her habit of consulting dream dictionaries. It’s a treasure trove of ’90s nostalgia and insight into a star in the middle of a major reinvention.

1993 marked a major comeback chapter for Drew Barrymore! At just 18, she was already in the middle of a full-blown career renaissance—filming two major studio movies, seeing several others hit screens, and partaking in loads of stunning photoshoots, including that for a wildly popular Guess jeans campaign. Behind the scenes, Drew kept her personal life surprisingly grounded, spending her days at home and surrounding herself with her closest girlfriends. This episode dives into every milestone of Drew’s unforgettable 1993: the roles, the shoots, the style moments, and the real life happening in between!

Good morning, Angels! This week we’re flashing back to the year 2000 to celebrate the action, fashion, and unstoppable energy of McG’s Charlie’s Angels — the film that redefined what a fun, female-led blockbuster about friendship could be (and gave us peak badass Drew Barrymore sexily slaying alongside the fantastic Cameron Diaz and Lucy Liu). Tune in for exclusive behind-the-scenes stories, our favorite moments, and a look at the movie’s lasting legacy. Twenty-five years later, it’s still totally "kicking your ass!"

It’s time to flip through another vintage gem of a magazine! This week, we’re revisiting Drew Barrymore’s Us magazine cover story from November 1998. Written by Johanna Schneller, the charming feature captures Drew in her late-’90s glow—living in a solar-powered treehouse, running Flower Films from its colorful offices, and playfully declaring she never wants to be “stinky-poo-poo girl.” The piece is sprinkled with sweet quotes from friends and collaborators like Nancy Juvonen, Courtney Love, and Luke Wilson, plus lists of Drew’s loves and hates. Rounding it all out are adorable beachside photos by Marc Baptiste, with hair and makeup by her longtime partner-in-glam, Jillian Fink Dempsey.

This week we’re circling back to a favorite topic—Drew Barrymore’s tattoos! When we first covered them 100 episodes ago, we had no idea she’d shortly add four more to her collection. With her most recent tat addition (“222” on her arm), we knew it was time for a tattoo redo. We’re revisiting our original conversation and adding in the latest ink info. And at the top of the show, we have the conclusion of Ashley's search for the 2000 Malibu Road house, plus plenty of highlights from Drew’s recent in-depth chat with Bill Maher.
NOTE: Since this episode's release, Drew has gotten her 15th and 16th tattoos (“grace” on her left forearm and a heart on her inner right wrist)!
