Melanie Lynskey and Jason Ritter – I think we can all agree that we are emotionally invested in this relationship and that’s why we have to leave them alone.
If I worked at this station I would book all my meetings in this room. “I need the Oprah room!” sounds like a TV emergency.
I’m so in for this Arnold Schwarzenegger documentary but I hope that it’s not just him narrating his life story and the story goes deep. (By deep, I mean him impregnating his cleaning lady and covering it up until the child grew up and Maria Shriver figured it out.)
You know how there’s too much TV? I’d also argue that there’s too much podcasting but it’s never ending – every week there’s a new announcement. Jesse Ferguson is podcasting about food, particularly delicious meals enjoyed with people. Eating is a multi-sensory activity so I’m curious as to how they will transfer the feeling of sharing a meal – the smells and the presentation and the sizzle and the plating – to audio.
I saw Jacquie Novak’s show (Get On Your Knees) before Covid and I also have this sweatshirt! I believe the show is on tour now so if it lands in your city, I’d highly recommend it.
OK I know I just said there are too many podcasts but I love listening to Gabrielle Union (she should have a podcast!) and one thing that’s undervalued about her is the amount of experience she has in Hollywood. She’s been famous for decades and is constantly evolving and re-evaluating the system. I think when she speaks about people swimming in the bullsh-t, it’s about Hollywood in general but also about some specific people as well.
You know what’s interesting about children’s birthday parties? The parents can be tech millionaires or regular shmoes and a foil number balloon will be there. It’s ubiquitous now, like birthday candles.
Blue Crush came out in 2002 and Kate Bosworth is still riding that wave. (Ugh, I’ll see myself out.)
