Onscreen, Bruce Willis dodged bullets and explosions in Die Hard and countless action films, making him the biggest movie star of the ‘90s. Offscreen, he dodged the tabloid press and became so determined to live a private life he moved to one of the smallest towns in Idaho. But he didn’t just want to live in Hailey — he wanted to transform it. Soon, this sleepy old mining town was home to a culture clash between Hollywood spectacle and small-town values, with real-life secret rooms, car chases, and betrayal worthy of a Willis thriller. Welcome to Haileywood. Host Dana Schwartz will be your guide.

Avis des utilisateurs
Excellent and informative, humorous too!
When I came across this podcast, I thought it sounded interesting, so I gave it a try. All but the final episode had been released by then.
Wow! After about 15 minutes I was completely hooked and didn’t want to stop. It’s like a great book you can’t put down and stop reading. I had this playing while I did laundry, ran errands, everything.
I’ve never been a huge fan of Bruce Willis, but I always liked him well enough, as an actor. From Moonlighting to more recent movies, he’s funny, a little goofy and usually kicking butt. I always thought he seemed a little arrogant interacting IRL though.
This podcast gave a lot of insight into what kind of human being Bruce Willis is, and the way he perceives others, which explains a lot about the way he interacts with the world in general.
As a rule I don’t look up information on actors or follow gossip shows, etc. Sometimes you can’t avoid hearing something if it’s plastered everywhere, but usually I know nothing except what movies/shows they’ve appeared in.
I say that to say this: I never thought I’d be interested in hearing about an actor’s personal life, but because of the circumstances and the way this podcast is created and presented, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Dana Schwartz is radio cancer
This podcast is just the latest in her uncontrolled proliferation of garbage content. Don’t waste a second of your life on this nonsense.
Skip it
Pretty uninteresting and honestly I feel like it did a major disservice to Hailey.
