Nat and Pete are coming in HAWTTT with a special announcement, as well as an update on Pete's health, Nat's international theater tour, CATS the Movie - which you should be watching instead of listening to this - as well as three massive national scoops missed in the pod's time away: Trump's idiotic decision to assassinate Iranian general Soleimani, the impeachment of said idiot, and the state of Democratic primary currently. Tune in and share and rate and review, won't you?

It is with buoyant, gay, queer, slightly-tipsy hearts that Nat and Pete must announce this is the FINAL episode of The Biggest Scoop - psych lol! - probably just until wintertime! Tune in for this dramatic roller coaster of an ep where your hostesses with the mostesses talk Nat's upcoming acting journey, Pete's mysterious lump & quickly disintegrating life, Harold auditions, Pete's Ukrainian fans, music as therapy, Hurricane Dorian, and a full-on analysis of how to defeat He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named. BIG kisses and hugs and high-fives for every listener out there thus far on this Scoopy journey - can't wait for Season 4 XOXOXO

Tune in to hear all about Pete and Mom's paddle-boarding adventure with their testy instructor Nicole, "not inhaling" weed, what it's like to fly international, Dr. Alex Karev from Grey's Anatomy, and Mom's perspective on the extremes taking over America's politics. 

Heavens almighty, Nat and Pete went scooping this week, and boy did they get got their BIGGEST GOSHDARN SCOOP yet - Beth Appel (UCB LA Artistic Director, Everything is Rent podcast)! Join the round table as Nat and Pete try to break the news of who is going to be the new UCB AD, as well as a lively discussion about the color of periods, AP classes, Beth's new grey Toyota Corolla,  the stress of being UCB's artistic director, Heather Locklear's fall from grace, and the ongoing devastation of the Amazon rainforest. OH MY STARS, WHAT FUN!

The Biggest Scoop is BACK with what can only be known as the EPSTEIN EP, as Nat and Pete welcome Pete's barista co-workers Bryan Rainstein (Bryan's Faces, Hot Hot Fuss) and Bryan Rucker (Goop Yourself, High Camp podcasts). Tune in for a hot hot chat that covers everything from Marianne Williamson's 2020 bid, mustache months, and fake snakes to every conspiracy about Jeffrey Epstein's suicide and sex trafficking ring out there. Dip that scoop in the ice cream bucket and LICK, darling!!

Joining Nat and Pete in the booth this week on the Scoop is Nat's -excuse  me- MOM and film producer extraordinaire Zanne Devine (Easy A; I, Tonya; live-action Kim Possible). A warning: this ep can get dark as the discussion inevitably turns to the growing intersection of white nationalism and gun violence in America, but trust that Nat's Mom will make you feel as safe and warm as possible - AND there's talk of ice cream, lactation, and sassy Airbnb's to boot. Honestly? Come to Mama and tune in!

Beep beep! Honk honk! Gurl, have Nat and Pete got a yummy episode for you! Joining the regular cast in the booth is Liz Reichelt (CBS Diversity Showcase, Our Podcast Got HACKED) for a deep dive into subjects like producing short films, determining whether Pete is a drama queen, Hello Kitty, nuclear proliferation, and boatloads more. Tune in, Scoopers! xoxo
