This weeks episode is a missing persons case that has rattled me for a year. I connected with Kaelyn Schneider whose Mother, Tracy Day has been missing since her first Valentine's Day as a married woman, 3 years ago. Kaelyn was getting ready for a date night with her new husband and had a phone call with her mother she had no idea would be her last. Kaelyn lives in Juno, Alaska and she and her Mother, Tracy Day are Alaska Natives and unfortunately this is the case of a MMIW who are historically not afforded the proper care and attention by law enforcement and the public in these cases. Kaelyn and I discuss all of the leads, the lack of proper investigation by the police, and what we can do to help. The leads by the way, point to a few very obvious suspects that were not properly checked into by law enforcement. Kaelyn is also an extremely talented ASMR tiktokker with over 80k followers! You can follow her on Tiktok, Instagram and Youtube at @kaelynjschneider and of course check for updates and hear more about her Mother, Tracy Day. Learn more about your ad choices.

Today I'm joined by the internet's favorite Rich White Lady, Nicholas Flannery. Nicholas blew up on Tiktok in the midst of the pandemic drawing inspiration from many a rich white lady.

Nicholas and I dive into how Rich White Lady came to be, a bit about him (he's from the UK! Who knew?!) how he finds his inspiration and shows we both love to watch. Nicholas even manages to get some of our faves over in the UK. Nicholas was an absolute delight and I know you're going to love this episode.

I also dive into Nicola Peltz and Brooklyn Beckham's wedding and the Erika Jayne and Garcelle drama. Have a great weekend everyone! :) Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Today I was joined by the lovely Sarah St. James all the way from the Gold Coast of Australia to discuss her time on Netflix's Byron Baes! Filmed in Byron Bay, Australia this show has every element of a great reality TV show -- drama, comedy, friendship, romance and beautiful scenery.

Hi everyone! This week I was joined by Ashley & Claire of Celebrity Memoir Book Club to read the incriminating, disgusting, and lame memoir of the man we truly cannot stand, Marilyn Manson. If you don't know who Marilyn Manson is he is a musician whose real name is Brian Warner who many women have bravely spoke out about in the past year. There are claims of horrible physical, emotional, sexual and psychological abuse by 16 people and counting. I read his autobiography last year when the allegations first came out and made a viral tiktok series outlining all of the crimes he admits to in his own book. Because even though Brian likes to deny any wrongdoing, he admits to quite a bit in his own words in his '96 memoir. Everyone check out Celebrity Memoir Book Club and Phoenix Rising -- a documentary about the women who survived Brian Warner coming out on March 15, 2022 on HBO Max. Learn more about your ad choices.

Kate is a podcasting titan with a show called Reality Life and might just be the most interesting woman in the world (in case Dos Equis is looking.) I of course had to ask Kate about her time as the White House intern during the Lewinsky era and her experience of working in the Oval Office every day. Learn more about your ad choices.
