Celebrity Book Club with Steven & Lily

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.

    Vincent "Chore Coat" Van Gogh

    CBC is in Chicago on 2/27! Get your tickets here. Yooo, who wants to drink some turpentine under a starry night with me? This week we hunkered down in the studio and read OG struggling artist Vincent Van Gogh's book, "The Letters of Vincent Van Gogh." Stretch your canvas as we discuss glamorizing peasants, immersive exhibits, eating overcooked quail, wholesale paint brushes, his dope Dutch sister-in-law Johanna Van Gogh-Bonger, the nostalgia of drawing, and brothels. Plus, we try to get to the bottom of what really went down in Brittany with Gauguin??? Support the show: https://www.patreon.com/cbcthepod See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Club Kid "LOVELINE" Part 1

    Come see us in Chicago on 2/27! Get your tickets now. Hello, Lover! Slip into an ethically made negligee and get comfortable because we are back in the boudoir with our annual Club Kid LOVELINE call-in episode. We don our Esther Perel hat and discuss how to find sperm, s**tting on the first date, greater Boston love triangles, squirting (again), off-grid courtship, how to get over a toxic crush, and–last but not least–ethical non-monogamy. BESOS! Support the show: https://www.patreon.com/cbcthepod See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Mary Louise "Brunette on the Verge of a Breakdown" Parker

    Dear Mr. Club Kid, you're the one in the corner of the coffee shop listening to my podcast with no headphones on because you don’t give a f**k, who orders a black coffee and drinks it all day while writing in a red notebook with a pen that hardly works... Umm sorry, we got carried away. This week we dive into acclaimed actress Mary Louise Parker’s semi-autobiographical book of letters, "Dear Mr. You." We discuss the longing for strangers, retro Coke, getting railed in the East Village, the erotic loss of the father, wearing opera gloves to breakfast, and analyze why she isn’t a hag. Light up, Moms! See us live in Chicago on 2/27! Tix here. Support the show: https://www.patreon.com/cbcthepod See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Carrie “Gold Medal Hag” Fisher

    Jabba the what?! A long time ago in a gay club far, far away... Princess Leia was slaying the house down BUNS! Hop in your Millennial Pink Falcon—we're imbibing "Wishful Drinking," the one-woman show-turned-memoir from Hollywood (and galactic) royalty Carrie Fisher. The daughter of Debbie Reynolds, Carrie is Hollywood to her imperial core—and that's on Whobacca! From cocaine addiction and electroshock therapy to gay best friends dying in your bed and Lily's pronunciation of Tatooine, this is one jedi-licious martini that'll finally answer the question: "Who Outer Rimmed whom?" Ewok, don't run to this endor-able episode. Help us iHeartPodcasts, you're our only hope!

    Jeremy “Prison Bae” Meeks

    Somebody call 9-1-1 because it’s getting hot in here! We finally listened to all you horny club kids, and read Hot Mugshot guy's memoir "Model Citizen: The Autobiography of Jeremy Meeks." This book may be triple spaced but it’s actually an important text that looks into the prison industrial complex, fame, class, B-movies, marrying into money, Morocco, and what it’s like to be raised a lesbian Naval officer.
