X Knows All

This week on the show Christy is joined by one of her friends Zach Moses who is one of three co-hosts of the Tossing Clubs Podcast.  Christy met Zach while they were both working in public accounting up in the Bay Area - They bonded immediately over their love of music and while they were both living in the city, they attended dozens of concerts together (Meadows Music Festival, 1975, Kanye, to name a few).  In this episode, we discuss everything that is Abel Makkoneon Tesfaye, better known as The Weeknd.  Very little is known about The Weeknd's personal life outside of his high-profile relationships, so we break it down here for you: what was his childhood like? He was HOMELESS at one point? What's his beef with so many other musicians?  All that and more on today's episode. Thanks to Zach for jumping on with me!

This week we have Dax Holt from the Hollywood Raw podcast.  We talk how the landscape of celebrity pop culture has changed with the integration of social media, how exactly TMZ chose specific stories in that ~ ICONIC ~ news room, his favorite celebrity encounters, his not so great celebrity encounters, certain couples he believes that were PR (one of these truly shocked me), and his thoughts on specific celebrities as I put him on the spotlight with some rapid fire - Kim K, Lindsay Lohan, John Mayer, Knedra Wilkinson and Jennifer Coolidge.  Dax is truly such a professional, both in the entertainment landscape but also on this podcast. I am so grateful to have him on the show this week!

I used to be O B S E S S E D with the Bachelor franchise, up until Matt James' season which is when I stopped tuning in.  This is where I bring Jenna in to help fill in the blanks for me.  This week, we discuss the ins and outs of the show, including the lack of body inclusivity that the show portrays, our insider tea of certain contestants, our favorite moments from the show, and so much more.  Think: sexcapades that happened on the show, some surprising hookups that you never knew about, and of course - some tea on our favorite (or least favorite) contestants including Emily Maynard, Jed Wyatt, Amanda Stanton, Robby Hayes, Lauren Bushnell, Ben Higgins, Rachel Lindsay, and more.  

Also, I've been getting some questions on where I am taking the show and my plans as the months (even years) go on. I cover all that and more in the first few minutes of the show!

• Christina - I want to start a podcast but am nervous. I’ve been thinking about it for a year. Would love your advice for taking the plunge. Xoxoxo

• Anon pls! First off, love the pod! Obsessed with your insta. Manifesting MAJOR fame for you in 2023 😆. I need advice! One of my close friends has changed so much since dating her fiancé. When they started dating she asked if we could include him more in our friend group because he has very few friends. He’s a little annoying but overall a nice guy. Now that we’ve started to include him it’s impossible to get together without him. She won’t even hang with the girls unless he can tag along. They argue constantly and have caused multiple scenes in public. I’ve started to make excuses to avoid being In public with them because I can’t take the embarrassment. It seems like anyone who says something about it gets cut off and we’ve all noticed this mean streak in her ever since they’ve been together. He’s got his issues too and definitely instigates some of the arguing. We’ve caught her in multiple lies/embellishments about their relationship. She’s so focused on appearing to be the perfect happy couple. I have a pit in my stomach watching this all happen. I realize a lot of this toxicity is on her but I feel like a horrible friend for holding my tongue. I hate getting involved in other peoples relationships and I wouldn’t even consider it except she is one of my closest friends. I feel like if I say something I’ll be next on the chopping block and it will ripple through our friend group . If you have any advice I’d appreciate it so much!!

• How do you essentially end a friendship when nothing bad has happened between you guys? I just don’t feel the same vibe anymore and keep turning down advances to hang out and it’s making me feel like a bitch. Nothing explosive happened and I don’t have any animosity towards her, but I’m having trouble setting boundaries without feeling horrible. She’s a great person I just don’t think we vibe well together anymore, but we see each other weekly for school. Please help lol. Lying about being busy has been working but I just feel horrible. We’re just not compatible as friends. We’re 24-25 in age if that helps at all.
