Have We Passed Peak Kardashian? Feb 04, 2025

Show notes

Is it the end of the road for reality TV's first family? Marina gives Richard a crash course on the dizzying world of the Kardashians.

Dan Brown is back. The literary phenomenon behind The Da Vinci code returns with a new book, the phenomenally successful author behind Angels & Demons, The Da Vinci Code and more returns with The Secrets of Secrets later in the year. The reception to his books hasn’t always been kind, but is the criticism fair or is it once again an example of critics and the public wanting different things?

We're now just a few weeks out from the Oscars. It isn't always the best in their respective categories that win with jockeying and the politics of Hollywood playing a major role. Listen for the inside track on the PR plan to win an Oscar statuette.
