  • Ep 265: The Momalas Can Get Momalost as Far as I'm Concerned

    I'd take a savage old lady over a phony "Momala" Harris any day. So let's take a closer look at the recent Sanderson sisters reemergence as a borderline geriatric Hollywood producer isn’t feeling euphoric for Sydney Sweeney, and her fellow give-no-f*cketeers Courtney Love and Lily Allen don’t mince words about pop stars like Beyoncé and Taylor Swift. Easy (and understandable) to pin these situations to: has been vs. hot. But can’t we discern pure pettiness from good ol' honesty? And what’s the underlying reality beneath it all? Truth hurts, babe. And I'm here to tell you cus Momala sure as sh*t won't.

  • Ep 264: Racism, But Make it Fashion

    It's October 7th 2.0 on college campuses and beyond across the states. Our leaders, who have cherry-picked standards through the cultural conversation, seem to be confused. But it's really not that complicated. Racism is racism. And free speech is free speech. Period.

  • Ep 263: I Was on NPR 3 Years Ago For the Same Thing Its Whistleblower Just Quit Over

    Plot twist: they didn't invite me back :) My give a f*cks have been on vacation! The crazy turn of events in my public fight for free speech after being suspended at VH1 and serendipitously on NPR a few years later to talk about it, mirroring the current, huge national story around NPR's whistleblower editor Uri Berliner. I also address Tucker’s weird turn and Candacegate at the Daily Wire. Because does challenging authority ever go too far?

  • Ep 262: The Year of the Power Hoes Being EXPOSED, Says Numerologist

    In an ep different from the show's usual speed, I sit down with professional Spiritual Advisor Charles Dotson (TikTok @numericalinsights) who uses the ancient practice of numerology to give big-picture insights on the chaotic state of the world. To get your feet wet, and to indulge good ol' millennial narcissism, the first half is my personal life number and pinnacles overview. In the second half, Charles explains how the numbers are coming for YOU, Big Govt, Hollywood, corporations, banking, stock market, real estate, and more, with power struggles, scandals, and high-powered structures being exposed. I reckon Diddy was just the beginning... Plus, do the numbers predict the ever-looming WWIII? Shit gets real.

  • EP 261: Diddy or Didn't He Pull a Nickelodeon?

    For you OG listeners, I have a lil something that'll have you more surprised than Diddy's sons being dragged out in handcuffs in the middle of their afternoon tea. THE TWO BLONDES ARE BACK, BABY! In the only show reunion that the people need, I'm joined by my original podcast co-host, the one and only Emily Blair Marcus, because Two Blondes STILL don't make a right. In usual blonde style, we dissect: the many ways the Diddy raid and "Quiet on Set" Nickelodeon doc align, Hollywood's aversion to Israel and love for terrorists, Kate Middleton's AI clone's diagnosis announcement theory, and more. And in a plot twist of the ages, Emily has gone from riffing on the most powerful celeb publicists with me... to becoming one of them. Her firm is taking over Hollywood like Gavin Newsom's hair gel and she tells us all about being on the other side of the beautiful and dysfunctional chaos that is entertainment media.

  • Ep 259: Don Lemon and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Interview

    The digital public square is such a mess, your nastiest frat house bathroom is a palace in comparison. Google's AI made black Nazis. Elon Musk cancelled Don Lemon. Beyonce wants race in music to be irrelevant, but, by golly, not if AI and Don Lemon have anything to do with it! Are the answers to our civil discourse prayers coming from... former arch nemeses Chris Cuomo and Tucker Carlson??? It's survival of the DEI nightmare and no one is safe.

  • Ep 258: A Provocative Take on the World's Darkest Trafficking with Mariana van Zeller

    National treasure and award-winning journalist Mariana van Zeller is one of the last REAL reporters standing. In a fascinating and honest chat about the findings of her Nat Geo series "Trafficked: Underworlds," we explore the politicization, glorification, and humanization of the world's most dangerous black markets. PLUS, her input on how being a woman allows her to go toe-to-toe with some of the biggest and most violent players will blow your mind. RESPECT.

  • Ep 256: Get Your Assless Chaps, We Goin' Country Like Beyonce

    Saddle up, cowboys and girls. Biz-savvy BABE Juliet Schroder, founder of the hugely successful platform Celeb Secrets (think: sexy Variety), is here. From Hollywood to NYC and here in Nashville, we have seen it all in behind-the-scenes celebrity chaos, and these two tri-state broads have opinions to share and stories to tell. We talk big picture ideas like the questionable state of celebrity and mainstream women freeing their sexuality, down to timely controversies like Beyonce's country debut frenzy and Megan Fox's self-deprecating Ukrainian sex doll joke. Yeehaw.
