    "Bachelorette" IMPLOSION, Justin Timberlake's Revealing DWI Video, and Shia LaBeouf’s Unhinged Rage

    Maureen Callahan breaks down the last-minute cancellation of ABC’s new season of “The Bachelorette,” including the resurfaced footage of Taylor Frankie Paul’s violent past, why a reality star with a documented history of instability was cast in the first place, and how the fallout was inevitable. She then takes on the newly released footage from Justin Timberlake’s 2024 DWI arrest in Sag Harbor, unpacking what really happened that night, the cringeworthy behavior of those around him, and Justin's entitlement on display with a pointed comparison to Reese Witherspoon’s infamous 2013 arrest video. She also slams Shia LaBeouf’s menacing behavior, including an altercation at Mardi Gras that led to an arrest for battery, a video of Shia hurling profanity at a woman sitting near him at a cafe and also shouting while pacing back and forth on a street in Rome. Then Maureen reads audience feedback featuring Troublemaker artwork imagining where Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner disappeared to during the Oscars, plus reactions to Baz Luhrmann’s new Elvis documentary, Priscilla Presley, and last week’s Lindy West segment.

    Meghan & Harry's Next Battle, Keith Urban's Family Discord, & Lindy West's Faux Empowerment

    Maureen Callahan is joined by celebrity reporter Rob Shuter to dive into the latest drama with Meghan and Harry's Netflix fallout, how Timothée Chalamet was not invited to the "Dune 3" launch party, why Keith Urban is getting the cold shoulder from both his daughters and Hollywood cohorts, and why the Kennedys are at odds with Carole Radziwill. Then Maureen takes shots at the Coldplay kiss cam woman Kristin Cabot for expecting people to care about her side of the story, and takes apart Jenna Bush Hager and the team of bobbleheads at the "Today Show" for their sad attempt to deliver a style segment centered on JFK Jr. and Carolyn Bessette. Later in the show, Maureen goes all in on writer Lindy West for her NYT profile where she tries to sound convincing when explaining her newfound acceptance of her polyamorous marriage that she admittedly never wanted.

Maureen then dives into Troublemaker feedback on The Nerve's livestream, Timothée Chalamet's big Oscar loss, and Hollywood’s artificial culture. Maureen closes out the show with a recap of episode 7 of “Love Story,” taking shots at the show’s sympathetic depiction of Carolyn Bessette's "struggle" with public life, the reenactment of JFK Jr.'s George Magazine fallout, while juxtaposing these portrayals with firsthand accounts from Michael Bergin's memoir "The Other Man" and Steve Gillon's biography "America's Reluctant Prince" against Ryan Murphy's narrative.

    Meghan Markle’s Cash Grab, Hoda Kotb’s "Today Show" Absence, & Why Ethan Hawke Sould Win the Oscar

    Maureen Callahan is joined by Royal biographer Lady Colin Campbell to break down Meghan Markle’s latest attempt at making money— a pricey “girls’ weekend” retreat in Australia, where guests can pay thousands for a chance to hear the Duchess of Sussex speak about living "her best life." Lady C also weighs in on Meghan’s long-running estrangement from her father Thomas Markle, sharing her own personal interactions with him and pushing back on the media narrative. Maureen then pivots to the latest Today Show intrigue after Hoda Kotb was noticeably absent from the anchor chair, raising questions about whether her over-hyped “Joy 101” retreat in Scottsdale, Arizona is actually happening this weekend. She also reacts to Harvey Weinstein's first jailhouse interview where the disgraced film producer attempts to rewrite history about the allegations against him. Maureen then takes a look at Jack Schlossberg’s latest Instagram post before being joined by James from Corporate to discuss some of the films that are up for an Oscar award and why the nominees for best picture are leaving both of them thoroughly underwhelmed.

    Oprah & Gayle Get Cozy in Paris, Amy Griffin Gets SUED, & Daryl Hannah Calls Out Ryan Murphy

    Maureen Callahan launches into Paris Fashion Week where platonic life partners Oprah and Gayle are in full attendance alongside the seemingly soulless Amy Griffin, who is currently being sued for allegedly coopting her childhood friend's assault story and passing it off as her own in her memoir, "The Tell." Maureen also takes shots at Anna Wintour's nepo hire Chloe Malle and her debut issue of Vogue, calling out her lack of fashion sense and creative direction, before ripping into fashion nepo spawn Sunday Rose for landing on the cover of Elle Australia. From there, Maureen pivots to insider rumblings at The Today Show, including Savannah Guthrie’s looming return and what her colleagues are really saying about her. She closes the show with Daryl Hannah’s blistering New York Times op-ed response to Ryan Murphy’s "Love Story," where the actress takes direct aim at the show’s deeply unflattering and wildly inaccurate portrayal of her.
