Mami Issues with Ana Quincoces and Beba Stapleton Jan 26, 2024

Show notes

When you think of mother-daughter duos, some names come to mind: Joan and Melissa, Judy and Liza, Vodka & Tonic… you can add Ana Quincoces and Beba Stapleton to that list. Ana’s time on “The Real Housewives of Miami” allowed her Skinny Latina culinary brand and cookbooks to soar. Now with daughter Beba, she cohosts the “Mami Issues” podcast. It is a no-holds-barred dialogue between a Millennial and her Gen-X mom. On this special crossover episode of Group Text, we talk about having grandkids, problem children, working with family members, why you NEVER call a Gen-X-er “Boomer,” and of course ROHM. (Check out the other part of our lively conversation over at the “Mami Issues” podcast afterwards!)

Bianca Del Rio Can’t Say No Jan 19, 2024

Show notes

For all my episodes I prepare copious notes and questions to try and get to know my guests, but from the moment the tape started rolling on my interview with drag queen and comedian Bianca Del Rio, I tossed them aside and let her do all the talking. Full of unbridled energy and raunchy jokes, Bianca told me all about getting ready for her 60-city “Dead Inside” comedy tour (tickets on sale at www.thebiancadelrio.com). Bianca sounds off on the current state of drag, the power of saying “yes,” her unique road rituals, and surviving in a world obsessed with cancel culture.

Casey Anthony: Truth & Lies Jan 12, 2024

Show notes

Award-winning journalist Tony Harris is back to talk about his new special, “Casey Anthony’s Parents – The Lie Detector Test” (now on A&E). In 2008, Casey Anthony’s daughter, Caylee, went missing and the child’s disappearance gripped the world. When her decomposing body was found near the Anthonys’ home a month later, the pursuit of justice for Caylee began. Casey was found not guilty of all significant charges in 2011, yet many questions remained as to what happened. Tony Harris discusses his latest mission – administering on-camera lie detector tests to Casey’s parents, George and Cindy Anthony, to find out if crimes, both new and old, were committed and covered up.

Kate Mara and Shawn Bannon Expose the Truth Dec 15, 2023

Show notes

When actress Kate Mara saw a rough cut of director Shawn Bannon’s documentary, “The Smell of Money” (now playing in select theaters and available on demand), she knew she had to get involved as its executive producer and help bring this story to the public. Both Shawn and Kate join me to talk about their infuriating and important new film, which chronicles the legal battle between eastern North Carolina residents and the “Big Pork” companies that raise pigs and improperly dispose of the animals’ waste, causing toxic and unsanitary conditions for everyone around the hog farms.
