Trashy Divorces

Everybody has had them. Everybody can relate to them. And now it's time to laugh at them on BAD DATES, a hilarious new comedy podcast hosted by Jameela Jamil. Each week Jameela's favorite comedians, celebrities and funny friends share their epic and true dating nightmares and misfires. Like the tale of the guy who could only get frisky on top of a pile of stuffed "Garfield" toys, or the enraged beauty queen with food poisoning who chased her date through a kitchen window. There's even a bad date that involved gay Bigfoot. From the team behind the hit podcast SmartLess, BAD DATES will make you laugh a lot, cry a little, and cringe just enough. Because as we all know - the worst dates make the best stories. Listen to BAD DATES WITH JAMEELA JAMIL wherever you get your podcasts: http://wondery.fm/BadDates-TD

As we close out another season, Alicia wanted to update us all on a group of past profilees: the Brown family from TV's Sister Wives reality show. Where Kody Brown once had four wives, he's down to just one - but there's reason to believe that monogamy isn't suiting him.

We are off next week to get set for Season 18! We'll be back with you Wednesday, April 5, with more Trashy Divorces.

Today, Stacie adds to the show's nerd credibility with the weird but true story of that time that Bill Nye the Science Guy was married - maybe - for a whopping seven weeks. The end was bad, particularly for the famed science communicator's rose garden.

Today we are joined by friends of the show - and podcast besties - Kristen Meinzer and Jolenta Greenberg. Kristen and Jolenta have spent years living the self-help lifestyle and documenting it all on their podcast By The Book. Their new show, How To Be Fine, puts the wellness world under their funny and humane microscope. They are also astute watchers of Royals and Housewives, and we hope you enjoy this wide-ranging conversation on Royal coronations, Housewives convictions, and the best ways to move on from a breakup.

Also, no worries: Alicia lost her voice, but is on the road to recovery!

Listen to How To Be Fine on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.

The Brady Bunch offered the vast middle of America a place of quirky, family-oriented respite in a time of enormous change and social conflict. Real-life Brady matriarch Florence Henderson, beloved as "America's Mom" for the rest of her life, was as changed by the times as anyone. She'd grown up poor, married young, and spent much of the 1950s and '60s trying to balance a thriving career in entertainment with the demands of a growing family, amidst the backdrop of Women's Liberation, the pill, and the Sexual Revolution. Alicia has the goods on one of our era's most adored performers.

From Sitcom Moms to True Crime Moms, Alicia has it all this season! Today, she has the kidnapping story that shook the world back in 2016, when California wife and mom Sherri Papini went out for a run and didn't come home. Her husband found her phone and earbuds along a stretch of road on her usual route. American and international media flooded the zone with coverage of the case, and when - miraculously! - Sherri was discovered alive 22 days later, the questions began to mount almost immediately.

Sometimes the story just get worse, and worse, and worse, and that's exactly the case with the life, career, and relationships of washed up action hero Steven Seagal. From his extremely messy marital (bigamist?) history, to his deep bond with a certain Russian dictator, to the many, many allegations of sexual misconduct, Seagal is truly one for the ages - but not for any of the reasons he may believe. 

Content Warning: This episode includes allegations of sexual assault and other disturbing conduct.
