89. The Hills 4x03 & Troy from the Dunzo Podcast Joins! Feb 15, 2021

Every once in a while, there is an episode of The Hills that is meant to set up the season. That is what this episode does. Yes, there is some drama between Doug and Lauren, we do get to see Whitney in New York City but most of the main characters aren't really in this episode. We don't have any Lo, Audrina, no Justin Bobby. During this episode of Nostalgia and Now I cover the Justin Timberlake apology, Morgan Wallen's apology, and Taylor's re-recording!

I'm also super excited to welcome our guest Troy McEady of the Dunzo podcast! We dive into all things pop culture from the Free Britney movement to the darker side of Hollywood to celebrities we wish had most respect on their names. Troy is truly a wealth of knowledge and I hope you enjoy our slightly chaotic deep dive.

She finally gets to work at clubs but it is ruining the anniversary that she had planned with her main man Jordan. What is a girl to do? Speaking of what is a girl to do, Lauren forgives Jason for being a clown at his birthday so they're on good terms again. Lauren is very busy with Whitney dealing with a DKNY/Teen Vogue fashion show. When one model fails to show up though, guess who steps in to take her place!

The Hills - 1X05 - Jason's Birthday Nov 12, 2019

Lauren and Jason are back on but she has to work on his birthday! Can you believe that Lauren has to work on her boyfriend's birthday? Well, neither can she. If you want to have a fun drinking game while rewatching this episode (on hulu or Amazon Prime) I highly suggest you take a drink every time she mentions Jason's birthday. While she works he plays gold and then they head to his birthday dinner. Will it crash and burn? Will he be rude about her missing the day part of his birthday? On another note, Audrina has a date with a model named Danny and Brian is very jealous about it.

As always I tackle a few different things other than Laguna and The Hill. Well, kind of. We talk about Mischa Barton and how I am worried about her, Heidi Montag and her wine bottle, and Jelena.

I give some advice about how to survive a holiday party at work, how to try and have healthier relationships with addicts in your life, and how to grow an Instagram page, among other things.

The Hills - 1x04 - Lauren & Jason Take Two Nov 05, 2019

If there is one thing that is for sure, it is that Heidi really hates her job. This episode is all about how Heidi wants to quit because it is not what she thought it was. The other half of this episode? Lauren goes back to Jason, that's right. Even though she saw him kiss Jessica, Lauren wants to give it one more chance. Did she change the bad boy? Will Jason kiss another girl in front of her? All of that is very much up in the air.

I also talk about Jenelle Evans, Brody and Josie, along with a few other key topics!

The Hills - 1x03- An Unexpected Call Oct 29, 2019

Heidi starts her job with Bolthouse Productions and it isn't exactly what she thought it would be. Full Time? Having to stuff envelopes? Horrible! Lauren gets to fly to New York but it isn't the trip that she expected and when she comes home she has an unexpected call from a ghost from the past. Audrina and Brian go out on a date, so how does that go? There's a lot to get into in this episode!

I also go into why Kelly and Kristin had a falling out and my thoughts on the Jen Bunney and Lauren fall out.

The Hills 1x02 - A Change of Plans Oct 22, 2019

I find out what happened to the cast of Buckwild, I give some luke warm tea on Audrina's new man, and catch you up on my rom-com life.

The One With Shannon Ford Oct 15, 2019

Shannon Ford formally of Very Cavallari currently of @ProbablyShannonFord joined me this week on the podcast! It starts off with us ordering our Pad Thai which was supposed to be just us sound checking, but I decided o keep it because it was a very natural conversation about food, spice, and sex. During the podcast we talk about how she really felt about her "villain" role on Very Cavallari, how to get over a friend breakup, what song would describe her, among many other things. We also get to find out which Very Cavallari cast member she would want to be stuck in an elevator with.

This podcast was brought to you by two bottles of champagne and a shot of tequila.

The Hills -S1x01 - New City, New Drama Oct 08, 2019

We are now onto The Hills, arguably one of the most iconic reality shows of all time. Will Lauren get the internship at Teen Vogue? Will Heidi be able to stay in school? Who in the world is Audrina? There are so many questions!

Truthfully, the first episode of the series is very quick but a great way to introduce us to Lauren's new life in Los Angeles.

I also give my thoughts on Ronnie, The Challenge, and an update on why my RomCom life is dunzo.

One Last Wave Sep 24, 2019

That's it, Laguna Beach is officially dunzo. Well, there is that season 3 but I have decided not to take a deep dive into it. We go over the final episode of Laguna season 2, we laugh, we cry, and we realize how old we are because there is a payphone.

On top of Laguna we talk about the national treasure that is Brittany Snow, the Carter Family drama, along with a few pieces of advice from myself.

Nothing More To Say Sep 17, 2019

Now that Fight the Slide 2005 has cleared, it is time to come back to reality. Jason did in fact kiss Jessica, Lauren really did witness it, so how will she deal with it? She will throw a party and invite everyone except for the two of them. Even Kristin is invited!

I also spill a lot of Very Cavallari tea and talk about the controversial 9/11 post that Kristin put up.

I Saw You Kiss Her Sep 09, 2019

-I am very sorry for the random placement of Alex singing Hello, I forgot about it and then had to add it-

Okay, now that I got that PSA out of the way, let's talk about some PDA! What does the cast of Laguna do when there is a really bad landslide in their town? They create a benefit called Fight the Slide 2005! As you can imagine, nothing in Laguna can be done without some drama and this episode has plenty of it.

LC watches Jason kiss Jessica then continues to run a fashion show after it, Dieter is ready to fight Jason but doesn't and Jessica is pretty positive she never had a chance to even kiss Jason. This episodes walked so every other episode of reality TV could run.

After the episode I talk a little bit about what I call the "dark days" of my early 20's and then hope to remind everyone that they are not alone.

The End Of The Beginning Sep 02, 2019

All good things must come to an end, like high school. The gang graduates and it is way more emotional than season 1, don't fight me on that. We find out what everyone got for graduation gifts which is the most important thing. Will Casey and Alex M make up? Will Kristin gain the freshman 15?

Things are just starting to really heat up in Laguna though, and by in Laguna I mean between LC and Jason. Will he change for her?

On another note, I talk about the Backstreet Boys concert, Trisha and Aaron, Jamie Foxx and Katie Holmes, and answer the question about Kaylor (well kind of).

Taylor Swift Lover Review Aug 29, 2019

Boyfriends Are Like Purses Aug 20, 2019

What better way to start a summer than with a BBQ at the Conrad Castle? Let's add some burgers, red solo cups, and a jacuzzi. Wait, who is LC dating?! The whole entire world of Laguna is shaken when we find out who is macking on LC. They find each other really cute though. Oh and as for Kristin? She doesn't have time for boys, she is too busy checking out her new car!

As far as the rest of the episode I go into why I think my friend's boyfriends don't like it, how I accidentally started some Instagram drama, and I give you an update on my rom-com life drama, or it's actually becoming a drama, I think.

Don't Hate The Game Aug 06, 2019

It is finally here, the fiesta is here! Alex H and Kristin throw a raging fiesta but decide to leave a few people off of the guest list. Kristin also does something when she's not thinking right. We get a little Stephen and LC moment in San Fran! It's definitely a very fun episode with just the right amount of drama!

I also go on a bit of a rant about how I feel about each of the Teen Moms.

Lies and Goodbyes Jul 30, 2019

Well, for starters lets talk about the fact that Kristin is going to San Fran to see Stephen and isn't going to tell Talan! What is going on with that? Casey spreads a sick little rumor about Alex M and Alex M takes my spot as one of the MVPs of the whole season, along with another brunette you guys may know.

Other than the episode I talk about the Heidi and Justin Bobby Christian song, how to deal with one sided friendships, Taylor Swift of course, and my Chelsea Handler moment over the past weekend.

It is Cabo round two for Kristin and the rest of the cast! We step back into the same hotel and gross clubs that we did the season before. The only difference is that Jessica and Alex M get into it rather than Stephen and Kristin.

This is honestly A+ television and I am more than happy to cover it!
