  • Vanderpump Rules

    If you are going to talk about Vanderpump rules for 45 minutes of the show, I would appreciate it if you would let us know beforehand so I could fast forward through that.

  • A good hang

    Been listening for years, it’s truly like hanging with your best friend, but you don’t have to do any socializing! Interviews are insightful and the chat shows are fun and entertaining.

  • A very over due review

    Well this review is over due because this has been my favorite podcast for the past 10+ years. Alison is very open, silly and relatable and she brings out the best in her guests. The Thursday shows are fun and feel like hanging out with friends and the Monday shows are either interesting interviews with different guests or an Alison + (Alison’s husband) Daniel show. Alison + Daniel shows I love the most but the mix of the two is the best. I love the new fav words segment and the occasional fragr... more

  • Many years with this BF

    Been a listener since the very beginning of the Corolla days. Long ago left Carolla in the crazy dust, but continue to love and support Alison! I don’t love every guest or every episode, but I have free will to turn it off and listen next time. More often than not I’m laughing, or my heart is warmed, or I’m learning something new. I will always be an Alison supporter!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Christina P (encore)
Q: How did you end up on reality TV, and what was that casting process like?
She explains the casting goal of exposing emotional vulnerability, the role of crying in auditions, and how the ensemble cast dynamics shaped her experiences on Road Rules.
Dr. Ben Paul
Q: What should a patient look for when choosing a surgeon for rhinoplasty or a facelift?
Look at before-and-after galleries and reviews, consider personal fit and communication, and ideally meet with more than one surgeon to compare approaches and ensure the surgeon understands your goals and you feel confident in their plan.
Dr. Ben Paul
Q: Can you explain the difference between a mid-face lift and a traditional facelift?
A mid-face lift targets the deeper facial structures to reposition them with minimal skin traction, preserving the blood supply and avoiding a pulled look; a full facelift involves more extensive skin and muscle adjustments and can include the neck, depending on the case.
Dr. Ben Paul
Q: What drew you to plastic surgery and to focusing on the face in particular?
I grew up with parents in medicine and felt a calling to help people, especially through the face which is central to identity. My own nasal injury also showed me how transformative and meaningful facial changes can be, both functionally and aesthetically.
S.E. Cupp Returns!
Q: What prompted you to start writing a memoir about anxiety and OCD?
The guest explains that writing the memoir emerged from a desire to help others recognize early signs, dismantle the stigma around anxiety, and provide tools for coping, drawing on her own experiences and therapy journey.
