  • "Bachelorette" IMPLOSION, Justin Timberlake's Revealing DWI Video, and Shia LaBeouf’s Unhinged Rage
    Mar 24 2026

    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 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
    Mar 20 2026

    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.

  • Teyana Taylor's NEEDINESS, Timothée Chalamet's Demeanor, & Carolyn Bessette's Dramatized Distress
    Mar 18 2026

    Maureen Callahan is joined by body language expert and TRUTHPLANE Founder Mark Bowden to take apart the most revealing moments from the Oscars, including Teyana Taylor’s attention-seeking antics and aggressive behavior, Timothée Chalamet’s jittery legs, plus his interactions with Kylie Jenner. Then Maureen and Mark pivot to the fashion world, examining the icy dynamic between Anna Wintour and Vogue successor Chloe Malle during a NYT interview and Paris Fashion Week. 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.
