Sheryl “Mild Guac” Crow May 03, 2023

Show notes

All I Wanna Do... is roast some almonds! Put on a poncho and play for mosquitos, we're cruising down Santa Monica boulevard with the queen of blues-infused folk-pop country-rock & roll—Sheryl Crow—and her exhausting cookbook "If It Makes You Healthy." Yes, that is actually the title! Join us on a winding road as we soak up the sun—and the truffle oil—in this early 2000's tour de force, as Steven & Lily surprise each other with recipes they cooked straight from the text. From Sheryl's infamous authorship dispute to Steven's curious connection to Lance Armstrong, why Sheryl is the Hillary Clinton of rock, and the most apple-laden recipe of all time, this is one change that will definitely do you good.

Plus! In the VIP Lounge —Steven & Lily improvise a madcap radio play about hotel rooms, threesomes, pisco sours and adult board games. To hear the whole episode this Friday, and get ad-free episodes every Wednesday, subscribe at http://patreon.com/cbcthepod

Doris "Diamond Heistess" Payne Apr 26, 2023

Show notes

Color, cut, clarity, carat. Brush up on your gemology, we're stepping back into 1960's Cleveland with the world's most notorious jewel thief—"Diamond Doris" Payne—the silky coal miner's daughter who became a self-taught diamond bandit worth millions. From her soot-covered childhood in West Virginia to walking out of the Cartier store in Monaco with a $500,000 ring on her finger, getting in bed with the mob, are diamonds even rare?, Jewish boyfriends, movie adaptations and not drinking, this is an international tale of intrigue, glamor and sunglasses. Don't call the police.

Lana “Del Taco” Rey Apr 19, 2023

Show notes

Reading Lana Del Rey’s book
Violets Bent Backwards Over the Grass
Under a bridge looking over the freeway
Thinking of LA
Thinking of nothing

Lana make me a weird stew
Sepia toned photos of kitchens
Lana you stay in your room
Jealous of your orange trees
Lana with your trad cosplay
Watching basketball on low volume
Driving to Macy’s in your big truck
Lana, can I come over ?
Do you have gays?
Do you like girls?
Boyfriends only…
Lana, write me a poem please

Marina "Guy's Girl" Abramović Apr 12, 2023

Show notes

The podcast is present. Throw on your best Yohji dress, we're going to the opening for Slavic seductress, mistress of MoMA, and iconic performance artist—Marina Abramović—and her durational memoir, "Walk Through Walls." From growing up under the communist regime of Tito's Yugoslavia to becoming the Queen Bee of the contemporary art world, living with the Aborigines, getting poisoned with pulverized diamonds, beaten by your own mother for sleeping messily, a rigorous discussion of art-as-self-expression, fasting, Lady Gaga, and how to be happy—this breathtaking act of conceptual audio is going straight into the Whitney's permanent collection.

Lance “Cosmonaut” Bass Apr 05, 2023

Show notes

I’m Gay! Head to Orlando and frost your tips as we dive into former *NSYNC member Lance Bass’s bestselling memoir, "Out of Sync." We discuss his rise to fame in the Mississippi state fair circuit, breaking away from famously abusive manager Lou Pearlman, the faux Backstreet rivalry, coming out to Reba’s head of PR, his nonexistent relationship with Justin Timberlake, dating OG gay celeb Reichen Lehmkuhl, and being so closeted he literally wanted to launch himself into space. Bye Bye Bye we do NOT want this memoir back!

PLUS! In the VIP Lounge this Friday— We discuss Gwyneth’s ICONIC trial and get into a fiery debate over whether Boston’s 25 and under set is f*ck**g and s*ck**g like we used too! Subscribe at http://patreon.com/cbcthepod

Paris "Blockchain Queen" Hilton Mar 29, 2023

Show notes

That's hot! Cash in your inheritance, we're checking into Hotel Hilton with OG heiress and miniature canine enthusiast—Paris Hilton—and her appropriately titled new blockbuster "Paris: A Memoir." The inventor of the selfie and lynchpin of modern celebrity is back with a shocking tell-all: from the horrific abuse she's suffered at "troubled teen" schools to becoming the highest paid DJ in the world, naming all her dogs after cryptocurrencies, reviving Heatherette, how The Simple Life invented the modern e-girl, is Kathy Hilton a monster?, the overdiagnosis of ADHD—and Lily gets hot for teacher. Blondes really do have more fun.

Whoopi "Very Scatological" Goldberg Mar 22, 2023

Show notes

Icons only! EGOT winner and The View's current warden Whoopi Goldberg finally makes her CBC debut with a deeply random book of advice "If Someone Says "You Complete Me," RUN!: Whoopi's Big Book of Relationships." From almost getting married to Ted Danson to actually getting married to three other guys, possibly being asexual, definitely being a lesbian icon, her attraction to Minions, obsession with farting, and how we all define intimacy, there's a big cache of critical romance data to unpack—and a whole lot of whoopee to be made.

Buongiorno! Hop in a gondola back to 18th century Venice, as we raid the little black book of the most infamous male slut in history—Giacomo Casanova—and the abridged version of his memoirs, "The Venetian Years." From the Spanish Inquisition to dildos of antiquity, incest, male wigs, Catholicism, feminism, and why castratos were the original trans girls, this is a fiery journey through the history of passion.
