    Calling all country lunatics! This week we have fellow best friend and host of KFM Radio, Sam Buck, on to talk about badass woke mama, Maren Morris, and her children’s book, "Addie Ant Goes on an Adventure." We talk about the animal kingdom, how Maren wrote a children’s book just so she could make some non-binary characters, basil, how ladybugs F*%K, Brittany Aldean, and leaving "country music.” Plus, Sam explains Maren's fallout with Kacey Musgraves, and we ask the question: how do you really know when the bones are good?

    Constance “Sex Quirkster” Wu

    Constance “Sex Quirkster” Wu

    What if I told you Hollywood isn’t all it’s cracked up to be? This week we read award-winning actress Constance Wu’s memoir “Making a Scene” and it’s, dare we say, pretty random. We discuss her time as a struggling actress, sex in Union Square, canceling a “Fresh Off the Boat” producer (and co-star backlash), owning a bunny, Mormon-owned coffee shops, not really talking about “Crazy Rich Asians,” theater kid drama, Michelle Yeoh dictating texts to her iPad, and Constance’s many, many ex-boyfriends.

    Betty “Personal Shopper” Halbreich

    Driver, drop me at Bergdorf Goodman! Come roam the halls of the famed department store with us as we discuss their fabulous in-house stylist Betty Halbreich and her memoir, “I’ll Drink To That.” (Most CBC title ever, btw). We trace her path from Chicago to Chanel and talk about hanging at the Copacabana, why Geoffrey Beene walked so Isaac Mizrahi could run, palazzo pants, teaching President Carter how to hold a gown, mediocre Japanese food, Pat Field, the patriarchy of the sleeve, and most importantly when to stop stuffing your closet with fox fur.

    Darling, you absolutely must come to our NYC live show on 6/5. BUY HERE.

Love this podcast, super funny. I exclusively came here to say that the way Steven pronounced “bona fide” in the Jenny Slate episode was insane.

Thanks!

Five Stars

Love the show even when I’ve never heard of the celebrity! Steven and Lily somehow simultaneously drag and exalt everyone they talk about. Get excited whenever there’s a new episode.
