What better way to wrap this interesting week up than with one of our favorite cohosts, Molly Mulshine. Michelle finds herself, where else, in Florence, Italy, which has her realizing certain wonderful truths about American culture... namely that we are coddled like little tiny babies and she wouldn't have it any other way! That viral View video is discussed, and folks, if we can't have a sense of humor about it, we are lost as a society. On the bright side, Michelle has some updates about the Italian Outlets. The good news is: you're not missing anything. The bad news is: The little you buy will likely be stolen off of the train. And while we said we wouldn't be addressing the P*rez Hiltn video (which you should not google!!) we, in fact, do. Plus: A little Big Brother/Baby Voice chat, Peter Pan collars, Bimbo culture, flying with babies, MAFS and somehow so much more!!! Listen to Molly's podcast Housewives Book Club anywhere you find podcasts!

So much to celebrate when our friend Andrea Lopez enters the chat live from New Jersey, where the topics truly range from the responsibilities of being an "Aunt on the Side," to baby neighbors who literally never grow up? Michelle may have been swindled by a Groupon but she's willing to sacrifice her money and happiness for content. Andrea is back from Colombia covered in Central American bugbites and now sees Wendy Williams anywhere she goes, while Michelle is fairly sure she sat behind Queen Elle Fanning at the opening night of Cat Cohen's incredible Broad Strokes. A Toxic Love Story is lightly discussed, and while it's not great, it is a great reminder that tech can be used for good (catching criminals). Mich correctly some of her mistakes but somehow makes new ones. This and MORE if you can imagine.

Always a wonderful day when Dan Acton finds a pod at his gym to join Michelle on the show. And today, they unpack much of what is in the current cultural zeitgeist. Dan gives an honest man's review of The Odyssey, which Michelle hopes to catch at a "quiet hours" screening for the neurodivergent among us. Married at First Sight is back on Peacock and has us asking the tough questions like "wait, what DID happen on January 6?" They also both watched Obsession, but sadly didn't have their "pit diapers" on for it, and while Christopher Nolan may not be a fan of CGI, Bubbles the Monkey definitely was! Speakerphones, Uggs, and male tenderness round out this episode that may teach you a little something* *no refunds.And don't forget to get tickets to Mich's upcoming shows! Joe's Pub in NYC Sept 2 & 3 and the Elysian Theater in LA Sept 24 (2 shows!)

Put those brows on nice and HIGH because we have the host of The Gay Tennis Podcast Tony Hagen joining us on the show to walk us through his magical day of Wimbledon men's semifinals, large totes, and posh dreams with Michelle, fresh from Amsterdam and a birthday dinner on 4 hours sleep. And there is a lot to unpack. Hobnobbing with British military, famous hawk owners, and local mums with a penchant for trampolining. We also delve into this week's downright disusting fluid scandal on Below Deck: Mediterranean, and Michelle begs you to take these untouched wings after a tense mixup at a London fast food restaurant leads to manna from heaven, assuming she can get herself back there. This and so much more. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This is an exciting episode of the show as we welcome two of our favorite guests... starting off with Dan Acton, who, despite what you may have read, will not put a dentist coat on for cash. He joins Michelle to unpack her day from hell, including getting hit by a bike and falling in front of an audience. Luckily Mich has a bright FINN DOM future ahead (or so she hopes), but will it be in time to score a million-dollar ticket to Wimbledon? Then!! We welcome comedian and mega-producer Jamie Lee to the show to try our best not to gossip about J-Lo. We unpack grief and the shock of losing a friend young, which is the main subject matter of her new one-woman show My Friend Katy, which will be on a stage near you in no time.

Back from his trip to Brazil, Dan Acton is here to recap the road to Brazil and all the joys of traveling through one of the most beautiful places on Earth with waves that will literally rip the glasses from you head. This is an episode CHOCK FULL of info: Going to World Cup games to meet "hunks"... assuming StubHub hasn't scammed you out of tickets, on the other hand "singlemaxxing," unkempt hovels, documentaries ranging from stolen Lego sets to stolen Disney memoribilia #WheresBuzzy, patchouli and passing the Zara sniff test, and twerking against your will at the Knicks parade.

Is there any better way to kick off a morning or any time of day then listening to Queen of both Comedy & KOHL'S Ellie Kemper? Michelle (writing this) argues no! Ellie sits in her finest bistro chair to join Michelle for an almost academic discussion about comedian genetics, musical theatre high school, FORENSICS (trigger warning for those sick of it, note that Ellie had never heard of it) and an in-depth look at two of their favorite movies, Little Shop of Horrors & My Cousin Vinny. Which begs the question: Did the movies you loved as a kid hold up? Or were our brains just so soft at that point that nothing could possibly top them?

Give his regards to (off)-Broadway!! It's star of stage and screen Bryan Safi, whose show Are You Mad At Me? is making its off-B debut this summer at the Here Arts Center! And imagine that a man of so many talents took a weekend out of his busy schedule to travel with Mich to Mexico City! An amazing town where wonderful meals are the standard, hotels are pristine, the people are perfect, and the dads? Hot. But don't worry, we barely discuss that... rather the humor of it all, from cuck hotels with nary a lobby in sight to meals where the main color is BROWN and the lips are THIN. Mich has a leg-shaking stand-off with a Miññie Mouse, buys the stupidest shirt ever made in German history, and tricks Bryan into purchasing illegal Chinese headphones among many other things. So dip a toe in this ash pool and relax with an ep chock full of recommendations and, mainly, things to avoid. To hear this episode ad-free and watch video, head over to Patreon.com/michcoll.  See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What a joy to welcome the all-time greatest Bachelorette & podcast maven Rachel Lindsay to the show. And if there's one thing we love about Rachel... she never holds back. Not when it comes to her very public divorce, her lack of a pre-nup, the Bachelorette group chat, her upcoming book, and dating much younger men. The glow never lies, honey! Too many things to even recap - growing up on I Love Lucy, charm school, improv, Bravo... a leaf unturned? Couldn't be us! Listen to Rachel's podcasts Higher Learning and Morally Corrupt!  See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Imagine having one of the greatest minds in comedy on your show and then spending the hour unpacking what matter a Wendy's Frosty consists of. That's exactly what happens today as host of the brilliant I Said No Gifts podcast Bridger Winegar joins a hyped Mich in-studio for this and so much more. Including a live, on-air taste test of one of the most horrific abominations we've ever laid eyes on... the Dirty Soda. We also delve into thrift shopping in Japan, the burial grounds of Michelle's grandparents, the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, and a number of humiiations and frights both of these sensitive comedians and podcast moguls have experiences in recent memory.Go support our beloved Bridger by signing up for his Patreon here!
