"Don’t tell me what I can and can’t say." Veteran journalist Taylor Ferber wrote this in her unprecedented Playboy feature, challenging the idea that brains and beauty are mutually exclusive, as the only woman who both posed and was a featured writer. After years as Hollywood's "Celebrity Whisperer" who interviewed and humanized the biggest A-listers at every major event, her irreverent show empowers viewers to think freely outside rules around wokeism, conservatism, men, women, media, and culture, getting big guests (like Blake Shelton, Dave Portnoy, Lake Bell) to say what they really think.

Ep 266: GOATs of Reality TV... Meet the GOAT of Podcasting ;)
^And don't @ me. I'm joined by the stars of Prime's new competition series The GOAT, CJ Franco (FBoy Island), Joe Amabile (Bachelor Nation), and Lauren Speed-Hamilton (Love Is Blind, season 1 OG), as they duke it out for reality star GOAT crown. I hit 'em with the not-the-usual questions, as we talk big picture of our culture's obsession with being famous, the lengths of shamelessness people will go, and more. Call me piña colada 'cause your brain's getting a lil vacation.

Ep 265: The Momalas Can Get Momalost as Far as I'm Concerned
I'd take a savage old lady over a phony "Momala" Harris any day. So let's take a closer look at the recent Sanderson sisters reemergence as a borderline geriatric Hollywood producer isn’t feeling euphoric for Sydney Sweeney, and her fellow give-no-f*cketeers Courtney Love and Lily Allen don’t mince words about pop stars like Beyoncé and Taylor Swift. Easy (and understandable) to pin these situations to: has been vs. hot. But can’t we discern pure pettiness from good ol' honesty? And what’s the underlying reality beneath it all? Truth hurts, babe. And I'm here to tell you cus Momala sure as sh*t won't.

Ep 264: Racism, But Make it Fashion
It's October 7th 2.0 on college campuses and beyond across the states. Our leaders, who have cherry-picked standards through the cultural conversation, seem to be confused. But it's really not that complicated. Racism is racism. And free speech is free speech. Period.

Ep 263: I Was on NPR 3 Years Ago For the Same Thing Its Whistleblower Just Quit Over
Plot twist: they didn't invite me back :) My give a f*cks have been on vacation! The crazy turn of events in my public fight for free speech after being suspended at VH1 and serendipitously on NPR a few years later to talk about it, mirroring the current, huge national story around NPR's whistleblower editor Uri Berliner. I also address Tucker’s weird turn and Candacegate at the Daily Wire. Because does challenging authority ever go too far?

Ep 262: The Year of the Power Hoes Being EXPOSED, Says Numerologist
In an ep different from the show's usual speed, I sit down with professional Spiritual Advisor Charles Dotson (TikTok @numericalinsights) who uses the ancient practice of numerology to give big-picture insights on the chaotic state of the world. To get your feet wet, and to indulge good ol' millennial narcissism, the first half is my personal life number and pinnacles overview. In the second half, Charles explains how the numbers are coming for YOU, Big Govt, Hollywood, corporations, banking, stock market, real estate, and more, with power struggles, scandals, and high-powered structures being exposed. I reckon Diddy was just the beginning... Plus, do the numbers predict the ever-looming WWIII? Shit gets real.
(Shot in February.)

EP 261: Diddy or Didn't He Pull a Nickelodeon?
For you OG listeners, I have a lil something that'll have you more surprised than Diddy's sons being dragged out in handcuffs in the middle of their afternoon tea. THE TWO BLONDES ARE BACK, BABY! In the only show reunion that the people need, I'm joined by my original podcast co-host, the one and only Emily Blair Marcus, because Two Blondes STILL don't make a right. In usual blonde style, we dissect: the many ways the Diddy raid and "Quiet on Set" Nickelodeon doc align, Hollywood's aversion to Israel and love for terrorists, Kate Middleton's AI clone's diagnosis announcement theory, and more. And in a plot twist of the ages, Emily has gone from riffing on the most powerful celeb publicists with me... to becoming one of them. Her firm is taking over Hollywood like Gavin Newsom's hair gel and she tells us all about being on the other side of the beautiful and dysfunctional chaos that is entertainment media.

Customer Reviews
Taylor's Insights Are Captivating
Now I can call Taylor a friend of mine, but before I was friends with her, I was a loyal fan of her podcast! Taylor's conversations are captivating, insightful, and provokes debate from the listeners which I truly appreciate. She recognizes that we all don't agree with her views, and she allows for multiple sides to be presented. Love you Taylor.
Absolutely LOVE Taylor!
Taylor is so much fun to listen to! I just love her commentary and views on everything. Thought provoking and hilarious, this podcast is equally fun and upbeat as it is important to the collective conversation. Thanks Taylor!
unfiltered cultural commentary…a pleasure to listen to!
it’s a pleasure listening to Taylor’s unfiltered and hilarious commentary on celebrities. Being politically homeless, I really appreciate when she brings both arguments to the table. I always get excited when there is a new episode in my feed and it re-energizes me before I start my work day.
