Talk To Me Taylor

She's the OG TikToker on femininity. But don't you dare call her Boss Babe. Alexi Turner, creator of the Empress Collective (former employee for Gaga and booking agent for Victoria's Secret, GQ), is an expert on all things female/male archetypes and honoring traditional gender roles. Cancellable, HONEY! In all of its Nashville in-person glory, we talk: Who hurt you, Andrew Tate?, the sexuality battle of Madonna vs. Cardi B and Britney vs. Selena, is modern America where men have it worse & traditionalists are edgy?, is feminism bad?, what's "toxic masculinity," REALLY?, Candace Owens treating sex as the antichrist, do men really get more money and pleasure?, Gisele and Tom's power dynamic, and why successful female millionaires wind up with gay men. Ladies who lunch, INDEED.

Jenner. The name. You may have heard of it. In this short but sweet baby interview, I talked with Caitlyn Jenner's son (and David Foster's stepson) Brandon about his personal experience with nepotism, or lack thereof, in Hollywood and breaking out of his very famous name as an individual pursuing his love of music. He may not be a starving artist like the rest of us (seriously, Netflix, back the eff off our account sharing TY), but even resources don't solve his different, own relative struggle of proving himself worthy. Counting pennies or automatically being judged: Which would you rather deal with? 

Brandon was promoting his new and upcoming reality music series Project Supergroup from the Embassy Suites in Nashville. Rock on.

Isolated, lost in the sauce, craving affection and connection? This isn't another night of your diary. It's a new modern fairytale and horror-comedy "The Loneliest Boy in the World." Joining me to make your Halloweekend spookier than your DMs (or lack thereof) are the stars Hero Fiennes Tiffin and Max Harwood. In spirit of the movie and the despair of our black mirror lives, I chat with the mid-20s actors about: disillusion of IG followers, "My job is to be an actor, not a social media influencer," the dichotomy of social media allowing connection and utter isolation, not fitting in, and community. The movie also stars Ashley Benson, Evan Ross, is in theaters and on demand, and is retro, fun, and twisted, so hop on it.

There may be wine. There may be hors d'oeuvres. But this ain't your typical dinner party. Join me for a brief conversation with director Patty Ivins about her documentary "Deconstructing Karen" (exec. produced by True Blood star Anna Paquin) that's getting attention from various film fest organizations. In the film, a group of white women in Colorado sit around the dinner table for a brutally honest dialogue on the elephant in the room: racism. Patty and I touch on issues like the white liberal woman, CRT, buzzwords, and race as it pertains to pop culture on the whole.

Brace yourselves for this unique force entering the Cancel Me, Baby fun house of your dreams: a true leftist who hates woke culture. Welcome Niko House, everybody, journalist, founder of MCSC Network on Rokfin, button-down-chest-bearing enthusiast, and tell-it-how-it-is advocate. Niko for the people is well-versed in politics, sports, culture, entertainment and pulls zero punches sharing his thoughts on: the male force behind Beyonce that'll leave both the Beehive and feminists shaking, mommy issues and the "toxic masculinity" label, Kanye's beef with the Jews, my personal fave: "latte liberals," and even more. PS- no one tell Kanye where I live so this Jew doesn't have to sleep with one eye open tonight ty for your service.

Remember laughter? What a time that was. Here to reignite comedy for people whose sticks aren't too far up their asses is Court Crandall, the writer and creator of the 2003 classic "Old School." Promoting his new movie "Bromates" (NOT to be confused with "Bros," which we discuss, of course), executive produced by Snoop Dogg, Court and I reminisce on the lost art of the iconic, raunchy comedy, the unmatched '00s era vs the current PC police, Judd Apatow's recent comments on 40-Year-Old Virgin, looking at Old School in hindsight given this climate, why Frank "The Tank" could fly but Dave "The Perv" in Bros was axed, and the Ricky Gervais-not-giving-a-shit of it all.

A Meta employee has entered the chat. This is Ukraine native Tommy Petrov, Creative Director at Meta (formerly Creative Dir. at Snapchat) who's also keen on the NFT space and shares his insightful thoughts on: social media trends, news consumption, the ADD of it all, China's TikTok versus the good ol' USA's, US content vs global content, Trump's social media platform, app shelf lives, are we at the point of no return, are memes the future, are Americans just dumb, fat, and lazy? As a Ukrainian he weighs in on celebs' involvement in the war, Zelensky's screen acting charisma, and yes, his Vogue cover. Tommy's also an Emmy-voting member of Academy of Television Arts & Sciences so we share our experience at said awards shows -- ironically, the great equalizer once inside.

There's uppity conservatives, stick-up-their-ass woke people, and somewhere in between. That somewhere has arrived. Welcome to our FIRST in-person Nashville ep of Cancel Me, Baby! fittingly with fellow thought criminal and IG superstar Amir Odom. In a convo that isn't for the PC faint of heart, Amir and I talk: my personal fave WOKE AMNESIA!, Kanye's White Lives Matter situation, political pawns, hypocrisy on both sides, pearl-clutching conservatives, BLM's mansions, Amir's experience being black and gay in the south, being the G in LGBTetcetc,  statistics of tough subjects, media derangement, what the trans movement means for his identity as a gay man, "no homo, bro," Billie Eichner's baby bitch fit over his flopped Bros movie, and more. Hide your kids, wives, and everyone you know because it's about to go down and no one is apologizing. 

Spooky season has indeed arrived, bitches. And here's an extra jolt if your pumpkin spice latte ain't quite doing it. Welcome Rachel Belofsky, film producer and founder of the iconic SCREAMFEST in LA -- the biggest and longest-running horror film festival in the US where films like Paranormal Activity and Human Centipede were discovered. These guys are sticking it to the suits while making you scared sh*tless in your suit. Going on its 22nd year and located at the legendary Chinese Theater, Rachel and I gear up for this year's festival and killer (ha, ha) lineup by diving deeper into the genre and talking: indie horror filmmaking, nepotism, tropes and theme trends, and creative freedom.

3 young, hot broadcasters walk into a bar... the bar that is this Zoom. Brace yourselves for this VERY candid conversation with the talented media movers and shakers who both come from traditional hard news and sports backgrounds -- Eryn Cooper (@onairwitheryn) Top 40 radio host at Nashville's Hot 106.7 and Lindsey Nance (@lindz.nance) lifestyle correspondent for Jay Cutler's Outsider platform. This ain't your father's morning show, as we give true experiences and unabashed opinions on: gender in the workplace, men and women being two sides of the same coin, being told how to dress, liberating ourselves from dino networks, rapid-style input on Adam Levine's mistress and Rihanna's Super Bowl hoopla.... and more. Going live in 3, 2, 1...
