The Dishmaster The Dishmaster

Taylor Swift's new album, The Tortured Poet's Department is here, and I'm giving you my full thoughts. Listen now for a track-by-track analysis of Part I.

This is a good episode, friends! I'm fired up. We start off the episode discussing how hard it is to make new friends in Los Angeles. I then dive into a deep discussion about insane celebrity culture, including Kristin Cavallari's recent podcast promoting  psychotropic drugs/toad venom—and my very strong objection to it. We also have a conversation about the moral perils of Tish Cyrus allegedly "stealing" her daughter's boyfriend (whom she's now married to). Plus, we discuss how all celebrities are getting the same procedures. Lastly, we talk about Wendy Williams' new documentary and whether she's been exploited by her family. We also ask an existential question of whether people should stay in a relationship after they've been cheated on.

For those that want to skip around, the minute breakdown is below:

INTRO
11:00 Kirstin Cavallari discussion
30:00 Lindsay Hubbard continues her I-don't-care-but-I-care Carl Radke breakup tour
34:00 Celebrities must stop getting veneers (clip from Abby via The Unplanned Podcast)
40:00 Tish Cyrus is married to her daughter's ex-boyfriend
51:00 Has Wendy Williams been exploited? And would Wendy have stayed with her  philanderer ex-husband had the public not pressured her?

On this week's episode we cover some very interesting legal cases, such as the lawsuit against Facebook for its harmful impact on children. Plus, a group of dating-app uses have come together to sue Match Group for false advertising (i.e., LOVE is not their real goal — GASP!) Later, we discuss why Travis Kelce is the right match for Taylor Swift and we examine whether celebrity memoirs are fair to the romantic partners unwillingly mentioned. Finally, Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes might learn the hard way that LUST is not enough.

Welcome to 2024, friends! We're ringing in the new year with a recap of 2023, some new dating perspectives/stories, and goals for the year ahead. Enjoy!

This week's episode is a special one. After watching the very talented David Ely play drums at an underground speakeasy, I knew I had to know more.  "Ely" was gracious enough to take me on a journey inside his world as a working drummer in Los Angeles, and to let me in on his plans for the future. We discussed not only music, but his career as a painter and much more.  Visit thisisdapoolparty.com  to see his incredible artwork.

Today, we take a deep dive into my personal life and ask — what exactly is love bombing anyways? Then we talk Hollywood gone haywire as it relates to Robert De Niro losing a gender discrimination lawsuit filed by a mistreated assistant.  Lastly, we talk Britney Spears.
