COMEDY
UPDATED WEEKLY

Celebrity memoirs aren’t like normal books—they’re fun! Join comedians Steven Phillips-Horst (@gossipbabies) & Lily Marotta (@lilyblueyez) as they rifle through the diaries of drug-addled starlets, oddly obsessive restaurateurs, brass-knuckled female realtors, and boring gay politicians’ even more boring gay husbands, finding fertile ground for searing cultural insights and juicy gossip. Martinis not included.

Jay "Pablo Michaels" Manuel

I was rooting for you!! We were ALL rooting for you!!! This week we read Jay Manuel's "novel"/self-insertion fan fiction about what it was like to work on America’s Next Top Model in "The Wig, the Bitch and the Meltdown." We dive into this burn book and discuss the 2000’s hot spots Tao and Buddakan (and why Jay chose to put them in a novel that takes place in 2020), doing Tyra dirty, Miss J's d*ck pics, why Janice Dickinson is our favorite, and that scene where Jay gets to pretend that Nigel Barker wanted him carnally. Move over Rachel Cusk, there’s a new queen of auto-fiction in town! Support the show: https://www.patreon.com/cbcthepod See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Reba “Yellowstone Network” McEntire

Come in and kick off your boots, y’all! This week we read and ate our way through Reba McEntire’s new cookbook "Not That Fancy: Simple Lessons on Living, Loving, Eating, and Dusting Off Your Boots." Between bites of her lip smackin’ ribs we discuss what it’s like to be a single mom who works two jobs, loves her kids, and never stops. Plus, how she became a camp icon, revitalized a small Oklahoma town, and overcame her fears to become the first-ever female KFC Colonel Sanders. Amen! CW: Eating delicious southern food on air.

Iliza “Goblin Girl” Shlesinger

What if Einstein was a chick??? This week we read wildly popular millennial comedian Iliza Shlesinger’s book "Girl Logic: The Genius and the Absurdity." You might be asking, "What the hell is GL™?" Well, my liege, we’ll explore together. In this research project we discuss white jeans, nose jobs, awesome stepfathers, backup boyfriends, Emerson College, study abroad behavior, how to get female friends, and a time when Sarah Silverman was the hottest comedian. Plus, we'll address the age old question: Can men and women actually BE friends??? Support the show: https://www.patreon.com/cbcthepod See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hilaria "Hillary" Baldwin (RE-RELEASE)

Namaste, chicas! It's everyone's favorite yoga wife, mompreneur, Hamptons homemaker & flamenco queen—Hilaria Baldwin—and her spiritual how-to guide, "The Living Clearly Method." Roast some poblanos for the Spanish Rachel Dolezal as we dive into chair pose, having 30 children, how Lily literally went to high school with her, the power of breath, meeting your husband while grabbing tapas, and what happens when you really do make studying abroad your personality.

Steve "The Woz" Wozniak

INPUT (prompt), var1, var2! This week we read Apple computer inventor/Kathy Griffin's ex-boyfriend's memoir "iWoz: Computer Geek to Cult Icon: How I Invented the Personal Computer, Co-Founded Apple, and Had Fun Doing It." We create a code in order to discuss the evolution of Mac, insane tension between Woz and Steve Jobs, early Silicon Valley, scam-ass printers, how we used to fix our own TVs, Freemasons, and ask the ultimate question: does technology really help us or has it gone too far?

JoJo “C*ck Galloper” w/ King Princess

We are 2 blessed 2 be stressed because this week we have lesbian pop superstar King Princess up in the studio to discuss Mass chanteuse JoJo Levesque and her new book "Over The Influence: A Memoir." We talk about JoJo's rocky musical journey from being a breakout teen star in the early 2000’s to the trappings of a bad record deal with Aaliyah’s shady uncle, Coolatas, Galentines at Taylor Swift's house, the pressure to be pop, and--damn--just figuring out this crazy ass business.

Kim "Studies Show" Cattrall

I couldn’t help but wonder if Samantha should be the one writing a book about sex. Maybe she could finally explain where the G-spot is, or would it just end up being an episode of CBC? This week, we are pleasuring ourselves with Canadian sex god Kim Cattrall’s book "Sexual Intelligence." We go deep inside the part history-part outsider art photography book and discuss ancient aphrodisiacs, what Toronto singles really want in bed, the phallus in art, oysters, female Viagra, bundles of nerves, outdoor lovemaking, and where our fantasies really come from.

Stanley “The Last Metrosexual” Tucci

Tomato, Garlic, Basil, Simmer. This week we read beloved actor-turned-food journalist Stanley Tucci’s new book "What I Ate in One Year: (and related thoughts)." Join us at the market as we select the perfect ingredients to pair with this delicious diary—including his possibly open marriage to Emily Blunt's sister, dining with King Charles, bad Italian food in Italy, discovering tequila with Blake Lively, under-seared scallops, parenting toddlers at 60, shopping for a group vacation, loving hotels, and how to make the perfect meal with only onions.
