    Donna Summer’s Memoir ‘Ordinary Girl’ (with Holly Laurent)

    Donna Summer’s Memoir ‘Ordinary Girl’ (with Holly Laurent)

    Chelsea and Holly Laurent (Mega podcast co-host) embark on a horny (yet also biblical) journey into the electrifying world of Donna Summer, the ‘70s Disco Queen. They discover the wild backstories behind Donna's legendary hits, from "Love To Love You Baby" to "She Works Hard for the Money," and her infamous recording session with Barbra Streisand for “No More Tears (Enough is Enough).” Chelsea and Holly discuss Donna's religious turn and reflect on their own intense relationships with religion and mysticism. Whether you're a long-time fan or new to Donna Summer's music, buckle the hell up, because it's about to get weird.

    “Girls to the front!!!!” Chelsea is joined by Nora McInerny (It’s Going To Be OK) to discuss Kathleen Hanna’s iconic memoir, “Rebel Girl.” From Kathleen’s journey as the lead singer of Bikini Kill to leading the Riot Grrrl revolution to starting the band Le Tigre, they dive into it all. There’s also Kathleen’s battle with Lyme disease, her romance with a Beastie Boy, and an absolutely epic run-in with Courtney Love, who shouts our new favorite slogan: "You can’t even read and I’m way more feminist than you!"

    Ellen DeGeneres’ Memoir Seriously...I'm Kidding (with Liz Culley)

    Ellen DeGeneres’ Memoir Seriously...I'm Kidding (with Liz Culley)

    *Patron-only Bonus Episode Teaser* Chelsea and guest Liz Culley (host of the Cool Cool Cool podcast) dissect Ellen DeGeneres’ second memoir “Seriously...I'm Kidding,” plus her first memoir, and that infamous Buzzfeed article. They delve into the dual realities of Ellen’s joyful public persona and the controversies that shadow her career. From pivotal moments from “The Ellen Show” with Dakota Johnson, Jessica Simpson, and Mariah Carey, to behind-the-scenes insights on her Christian Scientist upbringing and surprise vow renewal ceremony with wife Portia de Rossi, this discussion unpacks the complexities of Ellen's "be kind" brand, and the hardships she faced as the very first publicly gay woman to lead her own show on network TV.
