    Hey love the podcast so much! Just wanted to drop a line about Selena Gomez’s Oreos! I’m obsessed as well. I live in Canada and they have been sold here for months. And they just stopped selling them a month ago or so! So sad!

  • Ruh Roh…

    Listen, you two are so funny! Serving up big laughs and fun pop-culture prospectives. But that recent review by “Selfish” had a point. Now that you are (rightly) speaking-up for gay rights, please acknowledge loss of the rights for so many others: Woman’s rights, Civil rights, people of color, marginalized people, immigrant/perceived immigrant people etc. You don’t have to change your delightful show, but you brought it up. So. Please acknowledge the wider scope! Thanks! ❤️

I first realized the scale of the case when I saw news vans surrounding my house, even before I was arrested.
Featuring Famous People: Bruce Vilanch
Q: Why do you think Jamie Lee Curtis won over Angela Bassett for supporting actress?
The new voting body fell in love with everything everywhere all over your face, and Angela kind of got lost in the rush. Both are great stories, but Jamie Lee's Hollywood connection may have swayed the Academy.

Q: What was the impetus for you to write the book about all of the quote unquote bad stuff that you've been involved with?
It started during COVID when I had conversations with younger people who were curious about the shows I worked on, leading me to realize I couldn't run from failure anymore and that those shows would come back to haunt me.

Dennis Rodman represents a unique straddling of sports and pop culture, taming expectations around masculinity and sexuality, and resonating with various communities as well as raising awareness.
