Cancel Me, Baby!
Taylor Ferber
"Don’t tell me what I can and can’t say." Veteran journalist Taylor Ferber wrote this in her unprecedented Playboy feature, challenging the idea that brains and beauty are mutually exclusive, as the only woman who both posed and was a featured writer. After years as Hollywood's "Celebrity Whisperer" who interviewed and humanized the biggest A-listers at every major event, her irreverent show empowers viewers to think freely outside rules around wokeism, conservatism, men, women, media, and culture, getting big guests (like Blake Shelton, Dave Portnoy, Lake Bell) to say what they really think.

Ep 268: A Catholic Liberal, Harrison Butker, and What Women Want
A juicy continuation of the commencement speech heard 'round the world with media personality and mom Sonni Abatta. Was Harrison Butker onto something regarding what women really *do* want? Mel Gibson thought.  --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/taylor-ferber/support

Ep 267: Christ on a C—ommencement Speech
Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker gave a Christ-approved commencement speech that has the internet in pieces. This man managed to hit the eye of the zeitgeist hurricane where cancel culture, women's rights, religion, speech, and USA Today Op-Eds (including mine) collide. Put me in, coach. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/taylor-ferber/support

Ep 266: GOATs of Reality TV... Meet the GOAT of Podcasting ;)
^And don't @ me. I'm joined by the stars of Prime's new competition series The GOAT, CJ Franco (FBoy Island), Joe Amabile (Bachelor Nation), and Lauren Speed-Hamilton (Love Is Blind, season 1 OG), as they duke it out for reality star GOAT crown. I hit 'em with the not-the-usual questions, as we talk big picture of our culture's obsession with being famous, the lengths of shamelessness people will go, and more. Call me piña colada 'cause your brain's getting a lil vacation. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/taylor-ferber/support

Ep 265: The Momalas Can Get Momalost as Far as I'm Concerned
I'd take a savage old lady over a phony "Momala" Harris any day. So let's take a closer look at the recent Sanderson sisters reemergence as a borderline geriatric Hollywood producer isn’t feeling euphoric for Sydney Sweeney, and her fellow give-no-f*cketeers Courtney Love and Lily Allen don’t mince words about pop stars like Beyoncé and Taylor Swift. Easy (and understandable) to pin these situations to: has been vs. hot. But can’t we discern pure pettiness from good ol' honesty? And what’s the underlying reality beneath it all? Truth hurts, babe. And I'm here to tell you cus Momala sure as sh*t won't. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/taylor-ferber/support

Ep 264: Racism, But Make it Fashion
It's October 7th 2.0 on college campuses and beyond across the states. Our leaders, who have cherry-picked standards through the cultural conversation, seem to be confused. But it's really not that complicated. Racism is racism. And free speech is free speech. Period.  --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/taylor-ferber/support

Ep 263: I Was on NPR 3 Years Ago For the Same Thing Its Whistleblower Just Quit Over
Plot twist: they didn't invite me back :) My give a f*cks have been on vacation! The crazy turn of events in my public fight for free speech after being suspended at VH1 and serendipitously on NPR a few years later to talk about it, mirroring the current, huge national story around NPR's whistleblower editor Uri Berliner. I also address Tucker’s weird turn and Candacegate at the Daily Wire. Because does challenging authority ever go too far? --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/taylor-ferber/support

Ep 262: The Year of the Power Hoes Being EXPOSED, Says Numerologist
In an ep different from the show's usual speed, I sit down with professional Spiritual Advisor Charles Dotson (TikTok @numericalinsights) who uses the ancient practice of numerology to give big-picture insights on the chaotic state of the world. To get your feet wet, and to indulge good ol' millennial narcissism, the first half is my personal life number and pinnacles overview. In the second half, Charles explains how the numbers are coming for YOU, Big Govt, Hollywood, corporations, banking, stock market, real estate, and more, with power struggles, scandals, and high-powered structures being exposed. I reckon Diddy was just the beginning... Plus, do the numbers predict the ever-looming WWIII? Shit gets real.

EP 261: Diddy or Didn't He Pull a Nickelodeon?
For you OG listeners, I have a lil something that'll have you more surprised than Diddy's sons being dragged out in handcuffs in the middle of their afternoon tea. THE TWO BLONDES ARE BACK, BABY! In the only show reunion that the people need, I'm joined by my original podcast co-host, the one and only Emily Blair Marcus, because Two Blondes STILL don't make a right. In usual blonde style, we dissect: the many ways the Diddy raid and "Quiet on Set" Nickelodeon doc align, Hollywood's aversion to Israel and love for terrorists, Kate Middleton's AI clone's diagnosis announcement theory, and more. And in a plot twist of the ages, Emily has gone from riffing on the most powerful celeb publicists with me... to becoming one of them. Her firm is taking over Hollywood like Gavin Newsom's hair gel and she tells us all about being on the other side of the beautiful and dysfunctional chaos that is entertainment media.  --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/taylor-ferber/support

Ep 259: Don Lemon and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Interview
The digital public square is such a mess, your nastiest frat house bathroom is a palace in comparison. Google's AI made black Nazis. Elon Musk cancelled Don Lemon. Beyonce wants race in music to be irrelevant, but, by golly, not if AI and Don Lemon have anything to do with it! Are the answers to our civil discourse prayers coming from... former arch nemeses Chris Cuomo and Tucker Carlson??? It's survival of the DEI nightmare and no one is safe. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/taylor-ferber/support
