Hi guys. It's been a while. . . . First of all, we want to thank our loyal listeners and all our fans who have asked about the direction of Hollyweird over the past two years. To answer your questions - Meg and Liz both worked in healthcare straight through a global pandemic, took time to live our lives, and continued with other creative endeavors. Meg and Liz have been creative partners since Laguna Beach first aired on MTV, and will continue to create together until self-driving cars and holograms take over the world. We want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your patience and your loyalty to our beloved podcast. . . Now, on with the show. . . We felt that the recent death of pop singer, social media personality, and millennial icon, Aaron Carter, was our calling to revive Hollyweird from its grave - you know, like Buffy at the beginning of season 6. Aaron's death on November 4, 2022 let the world into Aaron's heartbreaking struggle with family conflict, abuse, and addiction. Join us as Meg and Liz discuss his early life and impressive race to teen stardom in part one, and his struggles with addiction, family matters, and subsequent death in part two.

Welcome to part two of our 27 Club Series! The main character of this episode was so juicy, he got an episode all to himself. Join Meg & Liz as we discuss one of the most controversial figures in music, Jim Morrison. The lead singer of The Doors left his mark on the world with his music as well as his off (and on) stage antics. Your girls go deep on jam bands, counter culture, and (mis)adventures in Paris.

Hi friends, it’s been a while. First, we want to thank our faithful listeners for all your love and support - means the world to your Hollyweird girls. We have a special treat because you waited so patiently: not one, not two, but THREE episodes covering our most requested topic - The 27 Club. In case you don’t live your life steeped in true crime and pop culture, the 27 Club refers to the phenomenon of many celebrities dying at the age of 27. The circumstances around each member’s death are different, but some still believe there may be a 27 Club curse *cue spooky music sting*. There are many members of the 27 Club that all deserve their own story, but we couldn’t cover them all, so we chose 5 that we believe represented the most interesting and diverse stories: Jimi Hendrix, Janice Joplin, Jim Morrison, Kristen Pfaff, and Anton Yelchin. Episode one features two of the most legendary musicians of all time: Janice and Jimi. Join Meg & Liz as we examine the lives of two incredibly talented musicians: one who is commonly thought of as one of the best guitar players to ever grace a stage, and one whose signature voice and wild fashion sense influenced countless artists. Both of their lives were cut tragically short by addiction, but their paths to get there are two different stories. . . .

Sorry, Zoomies: this episode contains material that you won’t find on the #fyp. The hotties covered in this episode were heartthrobs before Shawn Mendes ever gelled his hair. Listen in as we discuss three gentlemen to top off our Drop Dead Gorgeous series: Lee Thompson Young, Brad Renfro, and Jonathan Brandis. Join Meg and Liz as we examine why these young actors reached varying levels of stardom and how their absence is felt in Hollywood, plus lots of talk about childhood crushes and the Disney Channel.

Join Meg & Liz for the final (official) installment in our Drop Dead Gorgeous series, where we examine the lives and deaths of talented hotties we so desperately miss (please excuse us as we use this issue of Tiger Beat to wipe our tears). Part III tells the story of a handsome actor plucked out of obscurity whose addiction issues lead to his tragic death. Listen to your girls go in-depth on Corey's talent, how his relationship with his divisive costar continues to steal headlines to this day, and debate the existence of "The Glee Curse".
