    Brianna LaPaglia | 2025 Unpacked: Self-Discovery, Special Forces, & Life After The BFFs Pod Ending!

    #906. Brianna LaPaglia is back on the pod — and 2025 treated her like the full-on rollercoaster it was. In this episode, she’s spilling everything: the fear, the growth, the career pivots, the solo adventures, and all the stuff she’s never had the chance to fully explain.  We talk the iconic Tarte Turks & Caicos trip, surviving Special Forces (and yes, the pain, sweat, and chaos that came with it), saying goodbye to BFFs and saying hello again to PlanBri Uncut, learning to be alone for the first time in forever, and the kind of self-discovery that hits differently when you’ve been through a lot. Plus, she’s giving us the real talk on dating, life lessons, and what she’s bringing into 2026!  Real, funny, and totally the Brianna Chickenfry we all know and love— this episode is a vibe you don’t want to miss!

    Elisabeth Smith | Botox Myths, Best Lasers, and What’s Actually Worth Your Money!

    #905. What’s actually worth your money when it comes to injectables, lasers, and skincare… and what’s just hype? Kaitlyn sits down with her trusted injector and go-to skincare expert, Elisabeth Smith, for a no-BS beauty chat that answers the questions everyone is quietly Googling. From Botox myths that refuse to die, to how to actually find a good injector in the age of social media, they break down what works, what doesn’t, and what can seriously go wrong if you’re not informed. Kaitlyn also walks through a treatment she’s doing that day, why it makes sense for her skin, and how to think about timing, safety, and expectations. They get into the treatments people love to hate, what delivers the biggest return on investment, budget skincare that’s genuinely worth it, and the beauty advice online that makes professionals cringe.

    Elaine Hendrix | Iconic Meredith Blake, DWTS Comeback, and the Accident That Changed Everything!

    #904. This week on Off the Vine, Kaitlyn sits down with actress Elaine Hendrix — you may know her as Meredith Blake from The Parent Trap — for a conversation that goes way beyond the movie you think you know her from! Elaine opens up about returning to dance decades later on Dancing with the Stars, why she was convinced she was going home every single week, and how a cracked rib nearly took her out of the competition. She shares what viewers didn’t see: the nonstop rehearsals, emotional whiplash, intense competitiveness, and why the timing finally felt right to say yes after turning the show down before. We rewind to the moment that changed everything — being hit by a car just as her dance career was taking off — and how living with chronic pain reshaped her relationship with her body and work. Elaine also reflects on landing The Parent Trap at 26 (as the 433rd actress to audition), why Meredith Blake has become a millennial icon, and how fans’ relationship with that character has completely flipped. Honest, funny, and full of perspective, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss! If you’re LOVING this podcast, please follow and leave a rating and review below!

    Gianmarco Soresi | Hilarious Comedian Riffs on Stand-Up, Broadway & Micro Weens!

    #903. Comedian, actor, theater kid, chaos enthusiast — Gianmarco Soresi joins Kaitlyn for a laugh-out-loud, no-notes-needed episode recorded in New York City. Gianmarco opens up about starting out as a musical theater kid with Broadway dreams, how singing still sneaks its way into his comedy, his time on movie sets (yes, one involved J.Lo), and why he genuinely enjoys being bullied at SoulCycle. They riff on reality TV, producers, hecklers, triggering April Fools jokes, long-term relationships, creative highs, embarrassing on-stage moments, and a very questionable TV show idea involving… small weens. It’s silly, honest, and the kind of conversation that only happens when two people are fully cracking each other up — basically, the perfect episode to throw on when you want to laugh and feel like you’re hanging out with friends.

    Josie Balka | The Voice Behind Every Poem You’ve Saved on Instagram!

    #900. Today on Off the Vine, Kaitlyn sits down with the internet’s favorite poet — the woman whose words somehow manage to read our minds — Josie Balka. They unpack the unexpected moment her career began with one poem at 30, how everything blew up overnight, and what it was like when Hollywood royalty started using her sounds. Josie opens up about creating her own music, the pressure of writing work that feels like hers, and the mindset shift that made her embrace her “luckiest girl in the world” era. She also gets beautifully vulnerable — diving into the love stories behind her second book Loves of Our Lives, the friendships that shaped some of her most emotional pieces, the cosmetic surgeries she chose entirely for herself, and her hilariously relatable take on being a “pessimistic optimist,” aka constantly worrying every good thing might be the last good thing.

    Whitney Bischoff Angel | Your Most Googled Fertility Questions, Answered!

    #899. Kaitlyn is joined in-studio by her longtime friend (and former fertility nurse!) Whitney Bischoff Angel, fresh off a girls’ weekend, to talk all things fertility and women’s health. From egg freezing and endometriosis to postpartum, loss, and the emotional side of every phase—nothing is off the table. Whitney shares insights from nearly 20 years in fertility nursing, why she chose not to pursue the influencer path, and she opens up about her not-so-great experience on The Bachelor and how it shaped the life she has now. They also dig into the questions so many women have but rarely get clear answers to: – What’s the first step if you’re curious about fertility support? – Do SSRIs or mental health meds impact pregnancy? – When should you consider freezing your eggs? – Should you freeze them even if you’re not sure you want kids? – What about PCOS, male factor infertility, endometriosis, or surrogacy? And of course, some surprise guest walk-ins lead to an unexpected Titanic conspiracy chat—because why not? It’s real, informative, and full of the conversations women wish they heard more often.
