The Way They Were W!ZARD Studios

This week, the team welcomes a guest from across the pond, as writer, comedian and podcaster Chelsea Devantez ignores the time difference to bring us a couple who are the epitome of late 80s glamour and glitz - plus a firm favourite of Chantal's - it's Burt Reynolds and Loni Anderson! 
On paper this couple had everything, but behind the scenes it was a different story with some rather dark moments to boot.
But what would a night out with this pair be like and was that famous moustache a third wheel in this doomed love story?

In this episode, Grainne and Chantal introduce a podcast called The Newsworthy which you MUST check out!

Today Grainne and Chantal show their cultured sides, as they rub shoulders with the literati, courtesy of this week's guest, the very highbrow comedian, Jen Brister! Not only do we get to imagine what a night on the town in the roaring twenties with Virgina Woolf and Vita Sackville-West might look like, but we are also treated to some excellent dramatisations of what went down with some award-winning performances by guest Jen and our very own Chantal ... and SCENE!

This week's episode is a fever dream for everyone involved, as not only is one-half of this week's couple an actual friend of the show and past guest, but it's perhaps one of the most notorious celebrity romances to have emerged from reality TV. 
Yes, it's true to say that this week's guest, writer Emer McLysaght played an absolute blinder when she brought the very public saga of Samuel Preston and Chantelle Houghton to the table for us to gorge on. And it would appear the show has now eaten itself, as Grainne was able to use the very episode Samuel appeared on as part of her investigation as to what on earth could have possibly gone wrong with this couple, who met surrounded by TV cameras on Big Brother, while one half of them was in a relationship... madness it didn't work out.

In today's episode, hosts Grainne and Chantal couldn't be more decided on which couple thrived and who survived in the power struggle that was Chris Pratt and Anna Faris! Cos if getting hench doesn't signal impending doom, joining an alt-right Christian religion sure as hell will! 
Huge thanks to presenter and actor Scott McGlynn for finally allowing us some closure with this long-lamented showbiz couple.

Although it's very common to see May to December romances in Tinsel Town, today's showbiz couple raised eyebrows in the gossip pages, when an older woman dared to court a man below her age bracket - but the world was a different place when Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher were stepping out, and now women have no prejudice against them for age, or looks and equal pay, so PHEW!
The guest we have to thank for this EPIC tale of toxicity is the fantastic comedian, Olga Koch. As you can imagine, Grainne's deep dive unearths some jaw-dropping details and Chantel was cock-a-hoop at being able to get her teeth into it all. 
But which party can be declared winner in this celebrity bun fight? Have a listen to find out...
