This week, Van and I dissect conversations Demi Lovato had with fellow child stars in her Child Star documentary on Hulu. Trigger warning, we will discuss topics such as disordered eating, sexual assault/child abuse, and suicide.
With a truly incredible collection of celebrities, this documentary had so much potential, but did it live up to the combined star power of its subjects, including Kenan Thompson, Christina Ricci, Alyson Stoner, Raven, Drew Barrymore, and Jojo Siwa?

I'm in my Fall Out Boy song title era, so I thought I'd make this one LONG. Hilary Duff's birthday is fast approaching (September 28th), so I needed to post this dang episode Blake and I recorded a MONTH ago.
In today's episode, Blake and I discuss our mutual love of Hilary Duff, how miss Duff's music allowed him to go VIRAL, and we answer some listener questions/play some this-or-that games.

Coachella WHO? Taylor Swift WHO? This weekend may have some big music events happening, but women in the festival space, in particular, owe a lot to Sarah McLachlan. Yes, you read that right! While flawed in execution, Lilith Fair was a WOMEN ONLY music festival - the first of its kind - launched in the late 90s. Despite being short-lived, it revolutionized the music industry and left a cultural impact that remains poignant today. Cam, from what i will say, is the perfect guest to join me to...

THIS IS A SMUT EPISODE! My guest, Jarod Todeschi, has devoted his life (or maybe just like a few days) to piecing together some compelling clues about Hilary Duff's potential feud with Carly Rae Jepsen, all because of her lanky husband (and potential star f*cker), Matthew Koma. Jarod lays out the clues to sway me - what do you think?

It's TIIIIIIIME to actually give Mariah the credit she deserves as an artist, and not just for her success with Christmas music (or at all, really). Mariah has been in the game for decades and sold over 220 million albums worldwide, had 19 #1 Billboard Hot 100 hits, and is, genuinely, a musical genius. I'm joined this week by Jasmine of black bubblegum to truly tackle an overview of topics such as Mariah's success, persona, controversy, Grammy (Scammy!!) snubs, and her over-the-top persona....

What's your pop culture obsession right now?

More like Aubrey O'Slay, amirite? She needs no introduction, folks! Aubrey is enigmatic, fascinating, and chaotic. Troy McEady (who essentially has a residency on this show at this point) and I discuss her role as the breakout star in Danity Kane, her time on reality tv, high-profile relationships, and how she's become an important voice in pop culture over the past few years as she has been more candid about her experiences in Hollywood.

Excuse this VERY RAW EPISODE! I didn't even add any music or edit out my sniffles (like I usually do LAWLZ), but if you saw on my Instagram/Tiktok this week, some shit went down when I posted photos and videos I got of BRITNEY JEAN SPEARS on the beach in Cabo. I got them from a REAL SOURCE THAT I KNOW! I lay out the whole story, how I exploded the internet, and how the conspiracy minions reacted and continue to harass me. I think you can power through the sniffles for this one.
