The 100th episode of Our Sins and Woes brings back Jay Pat for a wild, unfiltered conversation about political contradictions and cultural chaos. The two go in on MAGA fans, firmware-level brainwashing, and how talking points feel less like opinions and more like software updates. They dig into the double standard around cancel culture, especially when artists like Cosby are still praised while Kanye gets dragged. There's heat, humor, and enough side-eyes to start a riot. It's exactly the kind of reckless celebration Episode 100 deserves.

It's not everyday we get a writer with the life and work experience of Charles Kipps to join our crazy podcast, let alone have a therapy session with Sadie and Jeanne.Yes, we talked about everything from Charles producing Aretha Franklin, to our struggles as writers, to Charles' decades of writing experiences ... and he's still selling screenplays to this day! You're not going to want to miss this one ... so much great advice from the legend that is Charles Kipps. (See below for Charles' full bio.)One note of correction: Charles inadvertently stated that Bill Cosby's agent helped him get his first book published, but it was actually Cosby's editor who did. Just wanted to correct that for the record.Resources from this episode: Charles Kipps website—be sure to sign up for his newsletter! Pipeline Podcasts:All OG Pipeline Artists podcasts can be found on pipelineartists.com/listen.YouTube:Watch full (read that as "most ... maybe not any" because Jeanne is tired) episodes on YouTube.Follow us on X:@recklesscr8tive@SadieKDean@jeannevb@pipelineartistsFollow us on IG:@recklesscr8tive@_thesadiedean@jeannevb_@pipelineartistsEnter Pipeline's Contests:Script Pipeline (Screenwriting, TV, First Look, Pitch Contest)Film Pipeline (Short Scripts and Short Films)Book Pipeline (Unpublished and Adaptation)*****Writer/producer Charles Kipps has won an Emmy, Peabody, Humanitas Prize, and Mystery Writers Edgar Award. Among his credits are Exiled: A Law & Order Movie and the 25th Anniversary Columbo special, A Trace of Murder.

We sit down with the second half with the legendary Janice Dickinson—Supermodel, author, reality TV icon, and an unapologetic truth-teller—for a conversation that's as wild, real, and iconic as the woman herself. From the moment she enters the room, Janice doesn't hold back. She opens about her past relationships and the betrayal she faced when a close friend—none other than Christie Brinkley—was caught up in a shocking cheating scandal with her then-partner. With unfiltered honesty, Janice dives into heartbreak, girl code, and how she found the strength to move on and demand better. But love wasn't done with her. Janice recounts the serendipitous moment she met her soulmate, Dr. Rocky Garner, on a blind date set up by his son. From their dreamy Chateau Marmont first meeting to his romantic rainy-day proposal over In-N-Out burgers, this real-life love story could be a Hollywood rom-com—except it's all real. Patrik shares the glamorous tale of how he proposed to Pol'—shutting down Rodeo Drive in true fashion—for their televised engagement on E!'s New Money. (Yes, it's now streaming on Peacock!) The conversation then turns to her reality TV resume—from America's Next Top Model to surviving in the jungle on I'm a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! (three times!). Janice spills tea about fellow castmates, grueling stunts, public votes, and why she refused to eat certain local delicacies (bull eyeballs, anyone?). Of course we get into Hot Topics and Janice weighs in on Kanye West's wife Bianca Censori's controversial “outfits,” Jaden Smith's Grammys headpiece moment, and the AI-generated accents that landed Adrian Brody and Felicity Jones Oscar buzz. She's got strong opinions—and she's not afraid to share them. We also talk cancel culture, problematic past tweets, and whether artists like Carla Sofía Gascon should still be celebrated despite offensive remarks. Janice shares her own painful history with Bill Cosby, her role in the early days of the Me-Too movement, and how speaking her truth became part of her healing. Finally, we test her knowledge with a “Supermodel Pop Quiz” where she reveals behind-the-scenes stories about icons like Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, Kate Moss, Heidi Klum, and Anna Nicole Smith. We reflect on Anna's tragic death—and how deeply personal that loss still feels. As always, we close with a fashion Runway Rundown and a coffee ground reading from Pol' who sees exciting things ahead for Janice, including global travels, new ventures, and a long-overdue moment of public recognition that will put her right back on the throne she deserves. From fashion and fame to heartbreak, healing, and hilarious truth bombs, this episode is pure Janice: raw, radiant, and relentlessly real. This is another Hurrdat Media Production.

Alright, strap in Gnards, ‘cause you're tuning into another idiotic episode of the Gnar Couch Podshow. Today, we're talking to “NRML MTB'er” — who, spoiler alert, is anything but normal. We've got Boston Rob, JP/Uncle Touche, Sebastian the wildcard guest, Chief, and Jimmy Sniper gearing up to take you on a deranged journey through mountain biking's less-traveled trails. After Rob morphs into his alter ego, DJ Fred when he plays our newest trap intro song—Canyon Kings—we talk collaborations with OnlyFans creators and reporter nerds going OTB on urban Frisco trails. NRML tells us about blasting bikes with every gun imaginable and we engage in some intense debates over which country deserves a mock nuclear winter. It's all the usual dumb humor with a side of stupid. Pack your sense of humor. Or don't, and cancel all of us. Whatever. We'll come back like cockroaches. Check out our store for sick shirts.
