Cracker Barrel DRAMA, Carbone's B Rating, Wishbone Kitchen's Swamp Soup, Mr. Beast's Burger Restaurant & More! Sep 11, 2025

Show notes

This week’s episode is a wild ride through food, fast-food empires, and brand drama. First up, I confess: I dined at the world’s first MrBeast Burger restaurant inside American Dream Mall—and it was like stepping into Dubai. I break down the massive mall, my burger order (two patties?? really?), and why crinkle fries on a bun actually work. From there, we dive into MrBeast’s chocolate empire, Feastables, and how he’s taking over your Target checkout aisle.

Then, we have to talk Cracker Barrel—why fans are furious over logo changes, remodels, and “losing the charm” of rocking chairs and peg games. Is it really about nostalgia, branding, or just misdirected outrage? Plus, the tea on Carbone’s B health grade, the hype vs. reality of dining there, and why bread + parm might be the real stars of the show.

We wrap with something sweeter: my ode to granola, the gift bag treat from Eleven Madison Park you need to try making at home.

Doja Cat's Edible Makeup, Wedding Fragrances, Louis Vuitton's $160 Lipstick, Pumpkin Spice Shower Routines & more! Sep 10, 2025

Show notes

AMAZON LINKS!

This week we’re diving deep into the world of beauty—starting with Doja Cat’s viral “is it lipstick or is it cake?” VMAs moment. Spoiler: it was a fully edible chocolate lipstick crafted by pastry wizard Amaury Guichon to announce her new gig as MAC’s Global Ambassador (with a collection dropping… on my wedding day, no less).

From there we spiral into the land of absurdly priced lipsticks—Louis Vuitton’s $160 bullet, Hermès at $81, Chanel at $50. Then we break down why perfume is so expensive—from rare raw materials like jasmine, to the artistry of perfumers, to the over-the-top packaging that sometimes costs more than the actual juice inside. We also talk wedding-day scents, which is a very tricky and difficult decision!! I know, first world problems.

And because no episode is complete without a little chaos, we close with Lindsay’s unhinged shower routine—think body scrubbing mitts, dry brushing, and way too much lotion, potions, sprays & oils!

RHONJ Casting Updates, Ashlee Simpson joining the Valley(?), Karen Huger Updates & more! Sep 09, 2025

Show notes

This week we’re waiting (and waiting…) for Karen Huger to finally break her silence—but maybe the Grand Dame is just busy polishing her book pitch instead. Over in The Valley, Ashlee Simpson might just be staging the comeback of the century by joining the Valley after Andy teasing her appearance on WWHL.

We’ve also got Kaia and Adelaide’s Snuggle-Shield-sponsored sip & see (where was Scheana?), Zack Wickham’s Y2K-inspired Gabby Windey shoot that deserves its own museum wing, and the surprisingly stacked DWTS cast that’s suddenly got everyone talking.

Plus: RHONJ casting rumors courtesy of Danielle Cabral, Gia Giudice’s refusal to leave NJ (AKA MOMMY), Alexia Umansky’s big wedding (McDonald’s included), and the ever-chaotic RHOBH universe—new faces, old drama, and Natalie Fuller’s post divorce new job.

It’s messy, it’s fabulous, and it’s all happening.

Howard Stern & Andy Cohen Sirius XM prank, New SNL Cast, Katrina Documentary, Sydney Sweeney & Scooter Braun dating & more! Sep 08, 2025

Show notes

The VMAs happened last night and no, I didn’t watch—but Mariah got an award, Gaga and Sabrina were there, and social media was on fire. I’ll catch the highlights on TikTok, don’t worry. Speaking of Gaga, she’s been popping up all over NYC, which brings me to: fun things I can’t afford without a corporate salary. (Also—NURTEC ads ruined her for me, sorry not sorry.)

We’ve got a LOT to unpack this week: SiriusXM’s messy future, SNL cast shakeups, auditions for the new Eloise at the Plaza movie, and yes… the Scooter Braun + Sydney Sweeney situation. Add in Yael Cohen’s wild $13,000 “remove microplastics from your blood” wellness grift, Netflix’s Don’t Die doc featuring Bryan Johnson and a Katrina documentary that hit way too hard.

It’s chaos, it’s commentary, it’s me yelling about biohacking losers and reality TV all in one place.

✨ P.S. If you missed last week’s episodes, go back and catch up—they were juicy.

With Love, Meghan Season 2 Recap! Sep 05, 2025

Show notes

Season 2 of With Love, Meghan has dropped on Netflix, and of course we need to talk about it. Meghan Markle is back & is obvs not filming out of her Montecito mansion and she’s keeping her family out of the picture - LAME? Instead, she’s surrounding herself with a rotating cast of celebrity friends for episodes filled with crafts, cooking, and curated ~activites~. But does the show actually let us see who she really is or just a carefully curated version of herself? I recap it all and share my unfiltered thoughts on what worked, what flopped, and what this season says about Meghan’s next chapter.

My Good Side by Scheana Shay Book Review! Sep 04, 2025

Show notes

This week, we dive headfirst into Scheana Shay’s brand-new book My Good Side—and trust me, it’s giving us everything we hoped for and more. From behind-the-scenes Vanderpump Rules tea to Scheana’s raw reflections on fame, love, and finding her voice, we break it all down chapter by chapter. Was it juicy? Was it messy? Did we get answers to the questions we’ve been screaming at the TV for years? Tune in for the ultimate recap, plus our unfiltered takes on what Scheana left in, what she left out, and what it all says about life in the Bravo-verse.

Carole Radziwill & Harry Styles, RHOBH's Bozeman St. John is engaged, Bravo Podcast Graveyard & more! Sep 03, 2025

Show notes

🚨 Bravo babes + pop culture junkies, buckle up because this one is STACKED.

First up, Antonia Gorga is out here collecting porches like Birkin bags (yes, a second in three years??). Then we pivot to love in the air: Bozoma Saint John’s engagement at BOA Steakhouse (gorgeous proposal details, a questionable steakhouse setting, and a diamond that could blind the sun). Plus—Boze’s new NBC show with Jimmy Fallon that’s basically Shark Tank but make it branding.

We’ve also got:

✨ The Parisian “who’s who” wedding of Charles Porch & Robert Denning (Seinfelds, Nicky Hilton, Jenna Lyons, Eva Chen—literally everybody), with a registry that made my jaw drop.

✨ A Carole Radziwill x Harry Styles Cinderella moment that has me spiraling.

✨ RHOP chaos—Karen Huger waving from jail release (glam scarf + glam squad included) and Stacy’s rollercoaster storylines. Ravyn Huger, call me!!

✨ Georgia McCann bravely opening up about her eating disorder recovery and why Bravo needs to spotlight this conversation more.

✨ Shahs of Sunset messy excellence: MJ vs. GG, Jax & Brittany shade, and “spray and pray” contraception (yes, you read that right).

Finally, I’m digging six feet under into the Podcast Graveyard—aka Bravo-lebs and Housewives whose shows have gone quiet (RIP House of Kim, On Display, Danielle Staub, Absolutely—and so many more).

It’s Bravo, it’s gossip, it’s high art—it’s obvs chaos. 🎙️💅

Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce engaged, Cardi B's trial, Anna Wintour's Successor, Karen Read's TV Deal & more! Sep 02, 2025

Show notes

This week we are covering a lot babes, so buckle up.

📖 First up, I’m still knee-deep in Lee From America’s memoir If You Do Not Like This, I Will Die — and yes, I have thoughts.

👠 Then: ANNA WINTOUR DRAMA ALERT. Vogue just announced Chloe Malle as Head of Editorial Content at Vogue US. I was RIGHT (yet again). We’re talking about who Chloe is, her rep-baby roots, what her promotion says about the future of the magazine, and how Vogue is shifting into the content machine era. Oh, and don’t worry — I’ll drag the whole Taylor Swift engagement write-up situation too.

💍 Speaking of which… Taylor Swift + Travis Kelce are ENGAGED. The ring, the florals, the chaos, the fact that people thought it could be lab-grown (lmao). I’m happy for her, but also preparing for the fanfare to eat us alive until further notice.

⚖️ Meanwhile in LA: Cardi B is in court. The testimony? Absolutely iconic. From chest-to-chest arguments in a gynecologist’s hallway to her saying pregnancy made her “disabled” — Cardi is serving courtroom theater. We break it all down (and yes, I would still support her no matter what).

📺 TV corner: Prime Video’s Karen Read limited series starring Elizabeth Banks — approved? NOT approved? You already know my answer. Plus, I’m rewatching Inventing Anna for next week’s deep dive, catching up on the Amanda Knox doc, and giving my two cents on Love Thy Nader (the Culpo-coded sisters taking over Freeform).

👀 Finally, a few quick hits: Secret Lives of Mormon Wives drops November 13, Nobody Wants This season 2 arrives October 23, and

I’ll tease what’s coming in Friday’s full Anna Delvey breakdown.

It’s chaotic, it’s pop culture, it’s me — let’s go.
