Podcasts about George Michael

Annie and Nick catch up on a busy and divisive week in music. New Stevie Wonder music has been unanimously welcomed, while the VMAs have split opinion – and inspired Annie and Nick to ask: does anyone care about them anymore? Other questions raised this week: why do Irish people make fun of Bono so much? Why are some people being mean about Madonna on the internet? Should the VMAs have rethought the George Michael tribute? And why are many Taylor Swift fans disappointed by the bonus Life of a Showgirl tracks? Plus, Nick has been talking football and Oasis tickets with Noel Gallagher.

Nothing says “credible music journalism” quite like blindly ranking ten legendary rock bands without knowing which one is coming next. Welcome to another comedy podcast from The Rizzuto Show, where Queen gets the throne, Metallica becomes the baseline for civilization, and somehow The Beatles end up staring directly at KISS's backside.We kick things off with a blind ranking of some of the biggest rock bands ever: Metallica, The Rolling Stones, AC/DC, Nirvana, Guns N' Roses, Pink Floyd, Queen, Led Zeppelin, The Beatles and KISS. The rules are simple: once you place a band, you're stuck with it. Naturally, this creates an absolutely flawless list that no music fan could possibly have an issue with.Just kidding. It's a disaster.Metallica lands at number five and becomes the dividing line for the entire exercise. The Rolling Stones climb toward the top, AC/DC gets placed too low and immediately causes regret, Queen claims number one, and then The Beatles arrive after almost all the good spots have disappeared. The result? The Beatles finish DEAD LAST behind KISS.Music historians, please direct your complaints somewhere else. We have enough going on.That leads to a bigger Beatles debate as Rafe argues that the band deserves enormous credit for what they changed, but that doesn't mean everybody has to automatically put them at number one. Moon attempts to defend civilization. Lern reveals she does not suffer from “Beatle boner mania.” Somehow Michael McDonald becomes the secret fifth Beatle. This is why nobody lets us curate the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.Speaking of legendary musicians, the crew gets into the backlash surrounding a George Michael tribute featuring performers including Teddy Swims and Sombr. Some viewers were furious with the choices, while the show tries to determine what exactly would have made everybody happy. Adam Lambert gets some love, Andrew Ridgeley's name is miraculously remembered, and Riz discovers his biggest problem with Sombr may simply be that somebody stole the “E” from his name.Then Rafe's birthday completely takes over the studio.The crew surprises him with a brand-new grill for his new house, which immediately raises the question of whether they can fire it up inside the studio. For legal reasons and continued access to oxygen, the answer appears to be no.But the grill is only the beginning. Rafe gets a personal birthday message from Rick of Rick's Ace Hardware — whom Rafe immediately embraces as his new father — along with an Ace bucket loaded with homeowner supplies. It turns out Rafe's previous love for the store traveled up the Ace Hardware corporate ladder and was even shared at a company convention. That's right: Rafe somehow became an Ace Hardware influencer without even trying. Take that, every 22-year-old making sponsored TikToks.There are also homemade deviled eggs, handmade coasters featuring Dolly Parton, Reba McEntire, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash and even Rafe's own dog, plus the discovery that Rafe shares a birthday with Monica Bellucci. At this point the man has a grill, deviled eggs, a bucket and Monica Bellucci spiritually connected to him through a calendar. There's nowhere left to go.And because this comedy podcast refuses to stay in one lane, Crap on Celebrities brings even more chaos: Slipknot and Marilyn Manson tour backlash, a Linkin Park documentary, Taylor Swift's former Beverly Hills home hitting the market, Diddy prison reports, Raven-Symoné revealing an extremely specific period routine, a Rick Wakeman concert for rescued bears, a heavy Matthew Perry documentary, and wildly divided reactions to a new Tom Cruise movie.There's rock history, birthday surprises, celebrity news, angry music fans and enough hardware-store enthusiasm to make a suburban dad shed a single tear into his freshly cut lawn.Happy birthday, Rafe. Here's a grill.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

It's Rafe's birthday, so naturally we celebrate the only way The Rizzuto Show knows how: questionable food choices, terrible opinions and conversations that have absolutely nothing to do with birthdays.The festivities start with Rafe crushing deviled eggs while Blues broadcaster Chris Kerber joins us to talk about his impressive 40-pound weight loss and the lifestyle changes that got him there. Unfortunately, any motivation to eat healthier is immediately destroyed by a rundown of the new food at Blues games, including German nachos, walking tacos, beer cheese and a toasted ravioli burger. Riz also gets humbled by a fellow morning radio personality who has absolutely no idea who he is, and Rafe's birthday feast escalates to vanilla mousse cake and bacon candles.Then we make the mistake of blindly ranking ten legendary rock bands. Metallica becomes the baseline, Queen grabs the top spot, and a series of increasingly bad decisions somehow leaves The Beatles at #10 behind KISS. We attempt to defend this musical felony before diving into the backlash surrounding a George Michael tribute. Rafe's birthday celebration also delivers a new grill and the kind of homeowner haul that says, “Congratulations, you're officially middle-aged.”But the birthday boy isn't done yet. We investigate what was happening in 1978 when Rafe entered the world, revisit forgotten sodas like Ski, Like Cola and Jolt, and discover the northern snakehead — an invasive fish that can breathe air and survive outside the water, because regular fish apparently weren't stressful enough.Plus, we debate who gets the ticket when a self-driving Tesla speeds, react to a horrifying wrong-leg surgery story, discover men needed Pilates renamed “Bro-lates” before they'd consider doing it, and investigate one of the great mysteries of modern frozen cuisine: what happened to the Hot Pocket crisping sleeve?Deviled eggs, birthday presents, rock-band blasphemy, killer fish, Tesla excuses and missing Hot Pocket technology. Happy birthday, Rafe.

Madonna's relationship with the MTV Video Music Awards started on its very first telecast, back in 1984, when she writhed around on the stage in a fluffy white wedding dress while performing "Like a Virgin." On Sunday night, the Queen of Pop returned to her rightful stage to open the 2026 VMAs with songs from her Confessions II album and to collect a total seven awards -- and Billboard was in the building. On the new Billboard Pop Shop Podcast, Keith tells Katie all about his night inside the Peacock Theater in downtown Los Angeles for the 2026 VMAs, where (beyond Madonna, of course) there was a stacked tribute to another MTV legend, George Michael, and the christening of new music video stars too, thanks to the fluid choreography from GENER8TION featuring Yung Lean.

The robots are officially fighting back, and unfortunately they already appear to have the upper hand. This comedy podcast kicks off with the viral video of Frankie LaPenna stepping into a cage with a six-foot humanoid robot that throws punches, lands kicks and sends him flying across the mat. Frankie even reportedly broke his hand fighting the thing, which feels like a pretty solid indication that maybe we should stop giving robots combat training.Naturally, the crew immediately wonders whether robot fighting is the future of entertainment, warfare or both. Rizz would watch robots fight between UFC matches. He'd probably gamble on them, too. Lern is already worried about humanoids destroying marriages. We're handling the technological revolution beautifully.Then Crap on Celebrities brings plenty of music chaos, including Turnstile news, Ella Langley breaking a major chart record, the debate over whether artists eventually hate playing their biggest hits, a George Michael tribute, Lionel Richie's health update and James Hetfield explaining why Tony Iommi remains such a massive influence on Metallica.Things get considerably messier when this comedy podcast dives into drama surrounding Dolly Parton's estate. Her nephew Brian Seaver — the same person who announced her death — has reportedly been removed from several properties after spending decades overseeing operations and security. Allegations start flying, restraining orders enter the conversation, and suddenly everyone is guessing how much Dolly's entire estate might actually be worth.The crew also gets into Jeff Garlin's comments about The Goldbergs, a new Darkwing Duck series, HBO's Lanterns and an upcoming Norm Macdonald documentary before Lern launches a game exposing everybody's knowledge of rock stars' real names.Alice Cooper? Easy. David Bowie? Sure. Elton John? Got it. But then Billy Idol, Eddie Vedder, Iggy Pop, Joni Mitchell, Nikki Sixx and Stevie Wonder start showing up under the names their mothers actually gave them, and everybody's confidence begins collapsing in real time.Finally, Do It Bitch is ready to return with Metallica, Breaking Benjamin, Turnstile and Rafe Williams tickets on the line. Moon and Lern face King Scott and Rafe in the only game where wildly overestimating your coworker's ability to name things in ten seconds is considered strategy.Humanoid cage fights, rock-star aliases, celebrity chaos, Dolly drama and coworkers aggressively yelling “Do It, Bitch!” at each other for prizes — another completely future-proof comedy podcast from The Rizzuto Show.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Pour ouvrir cette sixième saison de Parlons B et partir, avec vous, à la recherche du beau, difficile d'imaginer meilleur premier invité que Jean-Marc Hervier.Marchand décorateur, voyageur, scénographe, collectionneur d'objets et surtout d'histoires, Jean-Marc Hervier a eu plusieurs vies. Il débute chez Thierry Mugler, au service presse et communication, avant de devenir notamment producteur exécutif du clip Too Funky de George Michael. Il participe ensuite, aux côtés de Yamina Benguigui et Marie-Christiane Marek, à la création de l'émission Paris Mode sur Paris Première, puis travaille pendant dix ans sur de grands événements des Galeries Lafayette. La scénographie, l'hôtellerie, les maisons privées et l'accompagnement d'artistes précèdent finalement une nouvelle aventure : celle de marchand décorateur aux Puces de Saint-Ouen. Son œil s'est construit au croisement de tous ces mondes que sont la mode, l'art, le design, la décoration, l'événementiel et les voyages et c'est précisément ce qui nous intéressait chez lui. Jean-Marc Hervier nous a ouvert les portes de sa magnifique galerie, La Suite, pour y tourner cet épisode et les deux prochains de Parlons B. Un écrin à son image, où les époques et les influences dialoguent et où chaque objet semble avoir été choisi pour l'histoire qu'il raconte autant que pour sa beauté.Pour ce premier épisode, court mais dense, nous lui avons posé la question qui va traverser toute cette nouvelle saison : qu'est-ce que le beau ? Pourquoi en avons-nous besoin ? Quelle place lui accorder dans nos vies ? Et que cherche encore celui qui a passé une grande partie de la sienne à regarder, choisir, assembler et mettre en scène de belles choses ?À écouter dès maintenant sur toutes les plateformes et, pour la première fois, à regarder en vidéo sur YouTube.--Fondatrice et host : Nolyne CerdaCaptation et montage : DVNA Studio ( Producer Yohann Hervier / Art Director Raphael Chicha / Régie Jac Capra / DOP Charles Kapandji / Ingénieur du son Yohann Henry / Post porducer Mortadha BEN JAMAA)Photo : Lena MezlefGlam team : Marie Van WynsbergheAgent : FABBRO mgmt (Claire Cortese et Francka Martin de Mailly)Hébergé par Ausha.

This episode is made in partnership with Spotify. SongDNA beta is available on Spotify Premium. Check out “Funky Drummer” on SongDNA via the Spotify mobile app. Why did the drum beat that birthed hip hop only cost 50 bucks? In Part 2 of our “Funky Drummer” breakdown, Diallo & LUXXURY devote an entire episode to the genius and legacy of the funky drummer himself: Clyde Stubblefield. It's our “Oops! All Drummers!” episode, so strap in for some syncopations, paradiddles, breaks, ghost notes, backbeats, ostinados, tresillos, and the eight simple bars of hi-hat, snare, and kick that birthed decades of great (and not-so-great) samples.  We start in the stems, deep diving on what makes this iconic beat so damn good, including the four ideas that Stubblefield abandons along the road to the titular funk. Then, we get into the song's legacy and the decades of samples that Stubblefield's beat created, from 80s hip hop to 90s rock to 2000s cartoons.  We're giving Stubblefield his due. Because after all—the name of the tune is Funky Drummer.  Songs Discussed: “Cold Sweat” (1967) – James Brown “Give It Up or Turnit a Loose” (1970) – James Brown “Say It Loud – I'm Black and I'm Proud” (1968) – James Brown “Mother Popcorn” (1969) – James Brown “The Classy M.C.'s” (1985) – MC Quick Quintin and MC Mello J. “It's A Demo” (1986) – Kool G Rap & DJ Polo “South Bronx” (1987) – Boogie Down Productions “Jack the Ripper” (1989) – LL Cool J “Mama Said Knock You Out” (1990) – LL Cool J “Rock the Bells” (1985) – LL Cool J “Rebel Without A Pause” (1987) – Public Enemy “Bring the Noise” (1987) – Public Enemy “Fuck Tha Police” (1989) – N.W.A. “Run's House” (1988) – Run-D.M.C.  “Let Me Ride” (1992) – Dr. Dre “Justify My Love” (1990) – Madonna “To My Donna” (1991) – Young Black Teenagers “Where I'm From” (1993) – Digable Planets “The Next Movement” (1999) – The Roots “The Magic Number” (1989) – De La Soul “Freedom!

In the first of a special series of episodes, we're delighted to welcome everyone's favourite music video director, Vaughan Arnell, to Robbie Williams Rewind!Described by Robbie Williams's own website as “a collaborator almost as central to Robbie's story as Guy Chambers”, Vaughan has directed some of the most iconic music videos of Robbie's career. His extraordinary CV also includes videos for the Spice Girls, George Michael, Terence Trent D'Arby, Jamiroquai, One Direction and many more.In this episode, Vaughan takes us right back to the beginning, recalling the first time he worked with Robbie when, alongside Anthea Benton, he directed Take That's ‘Back For Good'. He shares his first impressions of Robbie, as well as some valuable lessons learnt from spending a music video shoot working with a lot of water!Vaughan then took the helm for ‘Angels', immortalising Robbie in stunning black and white on the beach at Saunton Sands, before filming him amongst netball-playing girls in London's Paternoster Square. Vaughan reveals what happened the night before the Devon shoot, when he and Rob were very nearly refused dinner at their hotel, and remembers the extraordinary reaction Robbie received in London while filming the kissing scene.Following the success of ‘Angels', Vaughan directed ‘Let Me Entertain You', bringing Robbie's vision of becoming a member of KISS spectacularly to life — complete with leotard, make-up, a full rock 'n' roll band, pole dancers and groupies.It was on the set of ‘Let Me Entertain You' that Robbie first played Vaughan his new song ‘Millennium' and announced that he wanted to be James Bond in the video. Vaughan helped turn that idea into reality in glorious Sean Connery style at Pinewood Studios — where he and Robbie even received a rather unexpected visitor while standing beside 007's Aston Martin! The video went on to win Best British Video at the 1999 BRIT Awards.And then came perhaps Robbie's most iconic video of all: ‘Rock DJ'. Voted the third greatest pop video of all time by the public in a 4Music poll in 2010, and winner of Best British Video at the 2001 BRIT Awards, its unforgettable concept became a defining moment in Robbie's career. Vaughan tells us how the video was brought to life, including the unexpected challenge of discovering that some of his roller-skating models… couldn't actually roller-skate!From rain-soaked Take That to Angels on the beach, Robbie as James Bond and the extraordinary creation of ‘Rock DJ', this is a fascinating journey through some of the most memorable music videos in British pop history.We hope you're as excited as we are to hear Vaughan's stories on Robbie Williams Rewind!======**About Robbie Williams Rewind**Join husband and wife Matt and Lucy, as they rewind through legendary pop star Robbie Williams' solo career.  Each episode, they have a guest fan to help us relive Robbie's incredible music and tours.Visit: robbiewilliamsrewind.com to discover more episodes, track listings & photos!Follow: @rewindrobbie on Instagram, Facebook, YouTube,  X & TikTok.

EP35 – New Year, Same Old WaffleIt's 2017 and the first When We Waffle of the new year — although absolutely nothing appears to have improved.There's plenty of chat from the team, Kat's Corner returns, and Laurie somehow gets onto George Michael, with a collection of increasingly unlikely stories: seeing him on a bus, a friend apparently spotting him playing the fruit machines at an amusement arcade, and another receiving some unexpected advice from George about where to buy cheaper Crocs. Are any of these stories actually true? We have absolutely no idea.Laurie's grandad inevitably finds his way back into the conversation, there are more ridiculous stories from Terry, Kat and Laurie, and Ray Medallion crops up once again to add his own particular brand of nonsense.It's another episode of conversations going nowhere, stories that probably shouldn't be believed and three people happily waffling their way through the beginning of 2017.These archive episodes are being played here for the first time after being locked away for almost 10 years, carefully remastered and restored by Peters-Fox Ltd. And there's plenty more to come — including brand-new When We Waffle later this year.Hosted by Terry Mynott, Katrina Fox and Laurie Peters.Produced, remastered, edited and published by Peters-Fox Ltd.Follow the show, tell a fellow waffler and come back Tuesday and Friday for another helping of When We Waffle.Instagram: instagram.com/whenwewaffle

¿Quieres farmear aura? Aqui te explicamos. Los jóvenes en Puerto Rico se unen à la ridícula tendencia ya hecho famosa por internet. “Farmear Aura” es una nueva forma de expresión en el cual se hacen acciones deliberadas para acumular prestigio, carisma o presencia de forma simbólica. En otras palabras, hacer el ridículo, tirarte al piso y convulsionar como un verdadero idiota y competir públicamente para ver quién es el dios de los morones. Pero para agravar la situación, alguien le tira al Voodoo Ranger por su comentario en contra y éste no se queda callado. Al igual que el resto de los Güanimes.Peter Cullen, Dolly Parton, Tim Curry, el Rey Herald V. Una lista de personalidades importantes que han fallecido en una semana en el mes de agosto del 2026. Una semana que le trae flashbacks al verano del 2016 cuando fallecieron personas del calibre de David Bowie, Prince, George Michael, Carrie Fisher, entre otros. Diez años de diferencia. ¿Casualidad?Además, te traemos nuevamente el horóscopo “Por Delante, Por Detrás” y recordamos nuestros senior proms. No se por qué. Ya no había tema de que hablar.

Tensions grow between the US and China just weeks ahead of President Xi's visit to the White House. Will this throw a wrench into the upcoming summit? The former director for China and Taiwan affairs joins the show to discuss.  Also on today's show: Sathnam Sanghera, author of a new George Michael biography, "Tonight the Music Seems So Loud"  Learn more about your ad choices.

George Michael wrote Careless Whisper, one of the biggest pop songs of our age, in an hour in his childhood bedroom. Alongside his childhood best friend Andrew Ridgeley he founded Wham!, a revolutionary pop group which became one of the defining bands of the 1980s, selling over 30 million records. Yet behind the genius of George Michael was the complex personal story of Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou who grew up in a conservative Greek-Cypriot immigrant family and had a life shaped by shame, addiction, homophobia, tabloid scrutiny and extraordinary creative flair. Ten years on since his tragic death on Christmas Day in 2016, George Michael's cultural legacy is as strong as ever, with his unforgettable hit song Last Christmas still playing on playlists and radio stations every December. In June 2026, Sathnam Sanghera, an award-winning journalist who has long written about immigrant communities in Britain and the legacy of empire, joined us live at Union Chapel to discuss his new book, Tonight the Music Seems So Loud, and to explore the life, music and contradictions of the man behind the legend. --- If you'd like to become a Member and get access to all our full ad free conversations, plus all of our Members-only content, just visit intelligencesquared.com/membership to find out more.

Andros Georgiou joins Mark Millar on the XS Noize Podcast to reveal the remarkable story behind Trojan Souls—the ambitious George Michael album that was never completed. Andros discusses growing up alongside George, recognising his extraordinary musical ability at an early age and their work together on Boogie Box High's version of "Jive Talkin'," which featured an uncredited lead vocal from George. He explains how Trojan Souls brought together an extraordinary line-up that included Elton John, Stevie Wonder, Aretha Franklin, Janet Jackson, Seal, Sade and Bryan Ferry. Andros also reveals that complete vocals by George and Elton still exist for "This Kind of Love"—a song he hopes could one day be released as a duet. The conversation explores George's remarkable songwriting and production process, the personal studio footage featured in the Trojan Souls film, what people still misunderstand about him and the emotional final conversation Andros shared with his lifelong friend.

The hoverbike engines are revving and we're picking up our Summer of Spice in July 2001 at Party in The Park with Geri around the release of her dead rockeh single 'Scream If You Wanna Go Faster'. We get into the music video and comparisons to Posh's 'Not Such An Innocent Girl' visuals, and all the zesty b-sides. Joel and David also revisit Geri's super camp, first-ever headline concert in Oman. Picture this: Steps, the British troops out in the desert, Union Jack bikinis, Cabaret-version of 'Wannabe'. We wrap 2001 with 'Calling', the George Michael-approved ballad with a stunning artistic music video, and all the stellar TV promo. For the history books, Joel recaps all the fabulous Geri pop culture moments post-album - from a book launch to the infamous "Sex & The City" cameo, to serenading Harrison Ford and George Lucas.

When Boy George released an AI-generated reggae Zionist fight song last month, I was not shocked. That's only because the 1980s queer pop icon and “Karma Chameleon” singer quietly directed his ire at me (ME!) a few months earlier. How did such a legendary countercultural figure resort to… whatever this is? Today, we're telling a bizarre story of fame, crime, geopolitics, and artificial intelligence. A lot of artificial intelligence. George Michael, as the decidedly superior 80s gay pop singer from across the pond, we salute you. Listen to bonus episodes on Patreon! Thanks to today's sponsors!

Kelly and Sharon kick off the show by recapping this year's Osheaga music festival in Montreal before diving into their 90's Playlist Picks of the Week. Kelly revisits a 1992 favourite from Annie Lennox while Sharon spotlights George Michael with another classic from the same year.   The conversation then turns to "Brand Beckham" as Kelly and Sharon discuss the ongoing family tensions between Brooklyn Beckham and his parents, sharing their hopes that the family can eventually reconcile.   They also reflect on Phil Collins' journey to sobriety and why his resilience continues to inspire fans around the world. Plus, Rosie O'Donnell may be returning to "The View" as part of the show's 30th anniversary celebration. The episode also pays tribute to beloved "The Sopranos" actor Vincent Pastore, who passed away at the age of 80. Kelly and Sharon look back at his career and discuss the lasting impact the iconic television series continues to have on audiences.   Give it your best shot with Kelly's Trivia questions and Sharon takes you back to 1992 with your 90's Rewind.

We already reviewed the big movie of the week, "Spider-Man: Brand New Day," earlier this week. But other movies exist in the world, so you get Arthouse Tuesday on a Friday. Here's what we discussed on the latest episode of Breakfast All Day: I WANT YOUR SEX. Between this and the Wham! in China documentary, it's an accidental George Michael theme week, but we're not complaining. Olivia Wilde stars as a caustic and quick-witted dom to Cooper Hoffman's eager and besotted sub. The latest from veteran queer filmmaker Gregg Araki takes place in the heightened world of LA's contemporary art scene. This movie is a hoot. In theaters. SHEEP IN THE BOX. A rare miss from Japanese writer-director Hirokazu Kore-eda. His film explores some familiar themes about creating a family in unexpected ways, but does so in languid, superficial fashion. A couple in the near future brings a synthetic boy into their home to replace the 7-year-old son they lost. Sounds like a moving premise, but this never grabbed us. In theaters. MOVIE NEWS LIVE! Another extra-long segment because there was so much to discuss, including the huge Thursday box office for "Spider-Man," news out of Comic-Con, Disney canceling "Wonder Man," and the tragic death os Glen Hansard. Join us on Fridays at Noon Pacific. Thanks for starting your weekend with us! Subscribe to Christy's Saturday Matinee newsletter: https://christylemire.beehiiv.com/

In the Haute Seat, our unforgettable conversation with Katie Ginella delivers everything Bravo fans could ask for: shocking Housewives revelations, celebrity encounters, fashion critiques, and some of the funniest moments we've had in the studio. We kick things off diving into Katie's obsession with RuPaul and the impact that RuPaul's Drag Race has had on generations of people who simply wanted to feel accepted. We swap stories about attending the very first RuPaul's Drag Race premiere party, where RuPaul himself was hilariously denied entry because he wasn't in drag and had forgotten his ID. From Lady Bunny to backstage moments at Drag Race, Katie gushes over the icon who changed the world for millions. Naturally, the conversation spirals into pop culture, with Madonna's legendary habit of showing up hours late to concerts, George Michael becoming Katie's nine-year-old son's newest obsession, and Katie sharing details about her new podcast, Bravo's Most Wanted, which she launched after initially developing a different show with Monica Garcia from Salt Lake City before teaming up with Jamie Rice. We also reveal that years before Modern Family, Bravo passed on our own pilot, Designer Family, because executives didn't believe audiences were ready to watch two gay men raising a teenage daughter in Beverly Hills. Looking back now, it feels unbelievable. Katie gets candid about how reality television affected her children, revealing that her daughter received death threats after being targeted online and that filming RHOC took an emotional toll on the entire family. We also get the inside scoop on Kylie auditioning for Love Island and whether Katie's kids would ever join a “Next Gen OC.” Then comes one of the biggest bombshells of the episode: we reveal that we were among the very first people to witness the beginnings of Scandoval while filming Scheana Shay's wedding in Cancun. We recount seeing Tom Schwartz kiss Raquel Leviss on camera before later spotting Tom Sandoval kissing her off camera—long before the scandal exploded across the Bravo universe. Katie is left absolutely stunned by the story. The Housewives tea continues as Katie opens up about her biggest regrets from Orange County, admitting that she wishes she had stood up for herself more instead of trying to keep the peace. She addresses misconceptions that she is a liar, talks about the difference between “show friends” and “real friends,” and explains why she believes much of modern reality television has become performative. The mood shifts when SnowWhite90210 finally returns from the groomer and instantly steals the spotlight. Between puppy talk, frozen dog sperm, and plans for Mochi's future puppies, things take a hilariously unexpected turn. Katie also opens up about one of the most emotional chapters of her life: being adopted from Korea as a baby. She shares her complicated feelings about eventually meeting her birth mother, revealing that she simply wants to thank the woman who gave her a chance at the life she has today. We discuss identity, belonging, and the deep love Katie found with her husband Matt after surviving an allegedly abusive first marriage. As we head into Runway Rundown, Katie weighs in on the latest RHOC cast photos, revealing her favorite looks from Shannon Beador, Tamra Judge, and Vicki Gunvalson while hilariously critiquing the gowns worn by Emily Simpson, Gina Kirschenheiter, Jen Pedranti, and newcomer Carmella GarciaPol' gives his expert couture opinions, breaking down why quality and custom tailoring matter at every age. Throughout the episode, Katie remains refreshingly honest about the realities of Housewives fame, the friendships she misses, the betrayals she still struggles with, and whether she would ever return to RHOC. Between RuPaul, Madonna, Ariana Madix, Scheana Shay, Tom Sandoval, Raquel Leviss, Sutton Stracke, Vicki Gunvalson, and SnowWhite90210, the Haute Seat is packed with unforgettable moments and enough Bravo tea to keep fans talking until her Armenian coffee reading.

He's the perfect co-captain to match our dark and twisted-ness, starting with a shared love of David Lynch. After a brief interruption of a staff member (male) in short shorts, Dave recounts his trippy days totaling in approx. 400 hits. Kids these days will never understand. Christina introduces Dave to some Cool Guys and Gals including, but not limited to, a CPAP monster, a pirate, and a guy that looks eerily similar to Robin Williams in Toys. Wrapping up the episode with Christina's TikTok Curations, Dave and Christina take a few detours into closeted celebrities (shout out George Michael) and hidden toilet cams.

We've covered a lot of PRETENDers on this show. But the guy in this one might take the prize. Carlos Henrique Raposo, better known as Kaiser, fooled the entire professional soccer world in Brazil for 26 years. He signed with more than 30 clubs. He partied with George Michael. He got protected by Rio's most dangerous crime boss. He once punched a fan in the face rather than actually step on the field. And through all of it, he barely played a single real game. This week we're revisiting one of our favorite conversations: an interview with Louis Myles, director of the 2015 documentary "Kaiser! The Greatest Footballer Never to Play Football." Myles and his team spent 18 months in Rio chasing down the truth, or something close to it, behind Brazil's greatest football legend who never actually played football. Watch the documentary: "Kaiser! The Greatest Footballer Never to Play Football" (2015) is streaming on Amazon Prime. Also from Louis Myles: "Mighty Penguins," following the Brentford Penguins, a football team made up of players with Down syndrome, as they prepare to serve as guard of honour at a Premier League match. It premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival in 2023 and is currently on the festival circuit. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
