    Heated Rivalry, Hockey Dad Energy (Bonus Episode!)

    The pod is back! ...Sort of. After a too long hiatus, I’m dusting off the microphone for a special bonus episode. We aren't heading back to Miami just yet; instead, we are taking a detour to the Great White North. Let's talk about the new TV adaptation of Rachel Reid’s Heated Rivalry and the absolute fever dream of watching Dylan Walsh play a supportive, happy father to a successful son.

    Lasting Acts ("Kurt Dempsey")

    In this episode, we're revisiting Season One’s “Kurt Dempsey,” a pivotal turning point in Nip/Tuck’s early run. It’s also the first full episode I’ve recorded since the passing of Julian McMahon, whose performance has been central to this entire project. His legacy casts a long shadow here—and that feels fitting.

    Remembering Julian McMahon (Part One)

    I tried to write a single tribute episode for Julian McMahon, but it all felt too big. So instead, I’m starting here—with a quiet reflection and the beginning of a miniseries that will spotlight some of his most memorable performances. From Charmed and Fantastic Four to Monster Party, FBI: Most Wanted, and The Surfer, we’ll take time to sit with the characters he gave us and the impact he left behind. If there’s a performance that really means something to you, please reach out at tellmewhatyoudontlikepod@gmail.com. I’d love to include it in the series.

    Julian McMahon (1968-2025)

    I recorded a short message in response to the heartbreaking news of Julian McMahon’s passing. It felt so surreal recording this, and I can't even imagine what his family and friends are going through right now. His work means so much to so many people. He brought complexity, charm, and a kind of unpredictable magic to every role he played.

    Before Pose, There Was Sofia Lopez ("Sofia Lopez")

    It might not be a perfect episode, but it is a great one. Join me as I break down what makes this early trans-centered storyline so surprisingly sincere, how it paved the way for shows like Pose, and why Sean McNamara’s moral arc still hits (frustratingly) hard in 2025. Also in the mix: Joey Slotnick’s Bobolit slides into frame, Christian cosplays as Cole Turner from Charmed, and Lou Eyrich’s wardrobe deserves its own plaque in queer TV history. Content note: Nip/Tuck deals with a wide range of intense themes (this episode in particular). Please proceed with care.

    Skin Deep ("Nanette Babcock")

    In episode three, we're diving into Nanette Babcock and the Ryan Murphy vibes are strong with this one. Together we'll unpack one of the series’ most emotionally complex episodes, how far Christian will go to save the practice, and Sean’s increasingly cracked moral compass.

    Face-Offs & Freakouts ("Mandi/Randi")

    We’re slicing into Nip/Tuck Season 1, Episode 2: “Mandi/Randi” — where twin drama meets surgical trauma. Just another day in the Nip/Tuck universe! In this episode, I continue the rewatch with a whirlwind of sibling rivalry, physical transformation, and very questionable ethics. Get ready to talk deleted scenes (yes, that one in the bar), iconic lines, and how this episode starts to shape the beating heart of the show.

    The First Cut Is the Deepest (Pilot)

    Welcome to Tell Me What You Don’t Like About Yourself, a rewatch podcast peeling back the layers of Nip/Tuck, the show that walked so Glee, Pose, and American Horror Story could run in heels. In this debut episode, I revisit the pilot and reflect on why this glossy, bloody drama still captivates over twenty years later. From plastic surgery to toxic masculinity, we’re getting under the skin — stylishly. Content note: Nip/Tuck deals with a wide range of intense themes. Please proceed with care.
