You so nailed the discussion no one wants to see this movie
I saw Chris on Juicy Scoop and loved him so much. I decided I would check out his podcast which I am so glad I did. I love the podcast. I love the banter between Chris and Adam. I love to listen to your take on all the top celebrity news. I so appreciate the honesty and the humor you guys provide in almost every conversation. I really enjoy listening to the podcast. I wish it were daily !!

You see your parents in one year 5 times more than I see my adult kids. They live 40 min away. I’m jealous. My kids are brats. Don’t spoil Beckett. She’s a good girl. She won’t do that to you. I thought that too.
In 1988 I attended one of MANY Echo concerts on the east coast and as a 16 year old frenzied girl would do, I muscled my my way to the front of the stage and Ian threw his cigarette down right in front of me and I grabbed it, put it my “keep sake” box and have it STILL!!!
I hate smokers and have never smoked and it smells awful but I loved having something his lips had been in - #gross #dumbgirl
