A Week of Babysitting Rates, Hall of Fame, and a Terrace Incident

This week, Jeff Lewis joined us on Monday and started a WHOLE THING about what the going rate is for a babysitter. Then, I was inducted into the Broadcasting Hall of Fame which I'm really excited about. Cousin Dave came to say hello on his way to a 10-day silent meditation retreat (note to self: send John to this). Plus, we called Anderson Cooper and Ben and I had a bit of a terrace "incident" that I may already regret sharing (the inbox is closed for feedback on this one!).

A Week of Julia Stiles, Lady Posh, and OPRAH!

This week, I settled my DWTS beef with Julia Stiles but started a new beef - against my will - with an Andy on Twitter. Plus, Oprah called in (every heard of her?!!) Then, Lady Posh entered the chat to weigh in on my striped jeans (after offlining with John Hill about them). Plus, I made Ben proud with my arm wrestling skills and he had some tough goodbyes to say.

A Week of US Open, Bravo Chatter, and Hitchhiking

This week, Lucy met fashion royalty DVF, I went the the US Open and had a mini-meltdown (that some lovely Yenta has footage of…great), and John had some thoughts on my jeans. Then, My Man (get over it) learned how things work in the Cohen household (spoiler: the party starts right away in the AM) and may or may not be Superman. Plus, I'm back at hitchhiking to work with reckless abandon, lots of discourse about Real Housewives of Salt Lake, New York, & Orange County, and there's a happy ending to my latest DMV debacle.

A Week of Summer Recapping, the RHONY Premiere, and Awkward Posing

This week, we had 3 weeks of kiki to catch up on and we covered A LOT! John and I ran through a "What We Did on Summer Vacation", including John Mayer/Howard Stern BTS, Dolly Parton's passing, and YES Ben had his first sleepover...despite your warnings (sorry, not sorry). Then, we get into the RHONY Premiere, which I *think* seemed to land with most of you and regale you with the tale of Luann coming to visit, hula hoops in hand. Plus, I clapped back a bit on my red carpet posing, had to back to the DMV (2 guesses on how well THAT went), and I cry - this time over MB Rookie Joshua Báez.

BONUS DROP: Practical Magic 2 Front Row

It's time for another Bonus Drop! This week, I got to sit down with Witchy Icons, Nicole Kidman & Sandra Bullock, plus the rest of the cast of Practical Magic 2: Lee Pace, Joey King, Maisie Williams, and Xolo Maridueña. We talked about the original film, getting a sequel off the ground, Nicole punching Lee (hard!), flirting with Sandra, midnight margaritas, and a whole lot more. You're going to want to gather the coven for this one!

A Week of AC2 Live Diaries (Pt. 1)

This week, in honor of Anderson and I hitting the road again this year, we're revisiting some content we recorded behind-the-scenes, en route, and onstage (I'm actually a little scared to hear this again, if I'm being honest). For this entry, we started in San Francisco and Seattle (in 2016, if you can believe it)!

A Week of John Mayer at Stephen Talkhouse

This was an exclusive invite but that doesn't mean that you're left out! I got to interview my other (platonic) fella, John Mayer, before he took the stage at Stephen Talkhouse in the Hamptons. I asked him about his new album he's currently recording, Dolly Parton, being lonely, and the future of Dead & Company.

BONUS DROP: The Studio Town Hall [3/26/2025]

It's time for another Bonus Drop! This week, I'm sharing an event I did with the cast of Apple Tv's "The Studio": Seth Rogan, Ike Barinholtz, Kathryn Hahn, and Chase Sui Wonders. We did this one live and spoiler alert: everyone was late and/or stoned. However, it made for some dramatic entrances and great conversation. We talked about Martin Scorsese's cameo, Seth's dream of a "Where's Waldo" movie, the indelible Catherine O'Hara, Below Deck, Barbra's audiobook, and so so much more. We really left no stone unturned.

A Week of Love Island USA Reunion, Life Lessons, and a Headphone Showdown

This week, we're wrapping things up with our final shows of the summer. We had a shorter week because of the RHUGT cast special (check that out if you haven't.) Then, we talked the Love Island USA reunion and I had a weebit of a Headphone Showdown on the flight. Plus, I covered some big life lessons about mortality with my kids (aaaand I almost cried. Again), we set our intentions for vacation and attempted to clear out the Listener Mail Bag.

BONUS DROP: The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Roaring 20th Special

It's the women who raised you. No, not your Mom or your Aunties. It's the OG Housewives! Andy got to kiki with Vicki, Kyle, Gizelle, Teresa, Lisa Barlow and Luann in celebration of The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Roaring 20th. They covered who hates doing reunions, the BTS of confessional shoots, packing for this trip, feuds of past & present, and so much more! Plus, Andy confronts Vicki about Briana allegedly telling him "please lose my number" when asked to make an appearance on The Real Housewives of Orange County!
E180 · 14 Aug 2026 · 1 hr 20 min

A Week of Housewives, Next Gen, and Sleepovers

This week, I recapped my summer party, the Next Gen: NYC reunion (texted some Housewives moms with updates!), dispelled an Atlanta casting rumor, and asked the question: to sleepover or to not sleepover. Who knew that was such a hot button issue (not me, clearly!) Then, I got into the Luther Vandross doc (figuratively and literally), defended Dr. Fauci, THC, and IVF! Plus, I recap my TODAY Show appearance and my war with Adidas over a refund.
E179 · 7 Aug 2026 · 1 hr 20 min

A Week of Deeehks, Reflection, and Loud Talking

This week was one of self-reflection: about the inability to modulate while out at restaurants and if we talked about dicks (deeehks) too much. But what do you want from me when a fan accidentally flashed me a dick pic?! Ignore it?? (absolutely not). Then, I ran into a Housewife on Fire Island, reunited with my first baby, Wacha (and address the "staged" paparazzi photos). Plus, Lucy has a friend at camp...(although perhaps of the "imaginary" variety) and we find out John sees days of the week as colors.
E178 · 31 Jul 2026 · 1 hr 30 min

A Week of a Hard Launch, Plastic Butts & Bevy!

This week, we covered so much I don't even know where to begin. I hard launched my relationship on IG (after MUCH caption & emoji discourse), splashed a few strangers in puddles with my car (with some regrets), and I learned who Jimothy is. Then, John visits my eye doctor and gets caught doing unmentionables to a plastic tush. We chat about the RHONY trailer, I continue to grovel to P.S. 22 (kinda), and am wondering what to do with the gorgeous air purifiers John Mayer put in my apartment. Plus, Bevy Smith comes by to talk her Fashion Queens reunion at Essence Fest, Oprah, and plastic surgery.
E177 · 24 Jul 2026 · 1 hr 15 min

A Week of Bike Rides, Puppetry of the Penis, and a Happy Andy

This week, I'm continuously grappling with my kids waking up early, I had a mini fit on a plane (again, teehee!), and John talked me through his viewing of Puppetry of the Penis. Then, I recapped my appearance in The Jellicle Ball, and had a big texting snafu thanks to Apple's Merge Contacts while trying to find a bartender for my BBQ. Plus, Ben learned to ride a bike and I realized that I'm in the happiest moment of my life (and Jordan got a front row seat to my life as a boyfriend).
E176 · 24 Jul 2026 · 41 min

BONUS DROP: Anne Hathaway & Matt Damon (The Odyssey)

You're in luck, because we have a true Bonus Drop for you this week. I got time with Anne Hathaway and Matt Damon to talk about the summer blockbuster "The Odyssey" and boy was it epic (as was the movie!). We got into so much: shooting all over the world, doing action sequences wearing gladiator sandals, using practical effects vs CGI, plus some scoop on "The Princess Diaries 3" & which reality shows they love.
E175 · 17 Jul 2026 · 1 hr 38 min

A Week of RHOC Turning 20, The Jellicle Ball, and Lemonade Inflation

This week, The Real Housewives of Orange County officially turned 20 years old this year (almost legal drinking age!) so I reflect a bit on that, I lamented the Lemonade Stand inflation rate, and we recap our holiday weekends on our respective beaches & the CNN Independence Eve Special. Plus, I'm gearing up for my Broadway show (okay, minor appearance in) "Cats: The Jellicle Ball" and I'm stressing over alleged on-stage intimacy (I'm taken, okay?!). And of course we had thoughts on Taylor & Travis' understated nuptials, debated if John should have kids or not, and I took the kids to see Toy…

BONUS DROP: Arsenio Hall Front Row

This week, we're off for the 4th, but that doesn't mean I'm leaving you high and dry. If you're looking for a beach read, may I present to you...Arsenio: A Memoir. I had the pleasure of interviewing him recently and boy, did we cover (and laugh) a lot! We discussed his talk show, Bill Clinton, O.J., dating Paula Abdul, hookers, me thinking he was gay…we really got into it.
E173 · 3 Jul 2026 · 1 hr 22 min

A Week of Father's Day, A Drive-By Beauty Contest, and My Accidental Elevator Toot

This week, I taped The Valley reunion, had a great Father's Day with the kids, and went to a BBQ my gay dad friends. I started the workweek with an accidental toot in the elevator in front of a woman who works at SiriusXM (Happy Monday!) Then, John is finally watching Love Island, we debate ladybugs vs. butterflies, and talked parental boundaries. Anderson and I are gearing up for our CNN Independence Eve Live special and we announced new AC2 shows for the fall. Plus, I may have given a guy body dysmorphia in a driveby beauty contest and my beach house is featured in Architectural Digest!

A Week of Arm Swingin', White House Shenanigans, and Knicks in Five!

This week, it was joyous in NYC as the city celebrated the Knicks championship. Last weekend, I went to a big party, where I got dragged for my red carpet poses, ran into a some RHONY Housewives past & present and danced to The Backstreet Boys. Then, we got in a fight with a caller over the UFC Freedom 250 celebration (or trainwreck, but whose to say, really?) on the White House lawn. Plus, John and I recalibrated our friendship after getting into a little tiff, and we dug into some Listener Mail

A Week of Orange County Adventures, Summer House Reunion, and My New Boyfriend!

This week, I recapped my weekend in LA and in Newport Beach (to accept a big award, nbd). I took a listener's suggestion and stayed in Newport for the night and I did the only logical thing: went to The Quiet Woman with my Orange County Housewives! I went back into LA and had a wardrobe malfunction at a wedding with John Mayer. Then, we discussed the Summer House reunion finale, talked Jennifer Lawrence being the one to find the audio leak (can you BELIEVE?!) , and talked Love Island & all things pop culture with Lauren Ashley Smith. Oh, and I hard launched my relationship of 11 months! I'm…
E170 · 12 Jun 2026 · 1 hr 32 min

A Week of Summer House, Good Deeds, and My Birthday!

This week, we talked extensively about parts 1 and 2 of the Summer House reunion (and I texted Jesse Solomon for that timeline!) Then, it was my birthday and I have to say, I may be the happiest I've ever been...despite my issues haggling with the Cobb County DMV and the Passport window at the Post Office. Plus, John talks about his 10 days in Spain (did he take a lover? Did he find that AirPod?!), dip into the Listener Mail Bag, and I deal with the emotional fallout of gifting my Bank Teller a VB x GAP hoodie.
E169 · 5 Jun 2026 · 1 hr 28 min

A Week of Chess, Parenting Feedback, and Bevy Smith!

This week, we are off for Memorial Day week but bringing you the rest of last week's recap: I took Ben to an all-day chess tournament which was a wee-bit brutal...then caved on my plan to leave before the participation medal ceremony (which activated the mom network! Then, I had a disastrous trip to the DMV trying to renew my license. Story developing, but I can tell you there was no 2005 incident in Atlanta, okay?! Plus, Bevy Smith popped in and we opened the Listener Mail Bag.

A Weekend in St. Louis and My Commencement Address

E167 · 22 May 2026 · 1 hr 7 min

A Week of NBC Upfront, Parties Galore, and My Lisa Kudrow Feud

This week, I recapped the NBC Upfront on stage at Radio City with my kids in the audience, talked NYC parties (and why I gave it to DJ Kyle Cooke!), and clarified my war with Lisa Kudrow. Then, we cleared out the listener mailbag (much like the ol' NYC rat cleanup), discussed cuck porn, and of course weighed in on the ongoing Summer House hot mess express. Plus, I told plenty of parenting stories along the way and am headed off to WashU for my big speech.
E166 · 15 May 2026 · 59 min

A Week of Palm Springs, Vulture Profile, and Daddy Regrets

This week, I escaped to Palm Springs for a few days to celebrate a friend’s birthday (can we talk about that CLIMATE though?!). Then my "Vulture" interview dropped… and let’s just say, I said what I said. Meanwhile, I spent the entire week spiraling over feedback over how I handled Lucy wanting to bring a balloon to school. Plus, I'm preparing for my WashU commencement speech (still not done!) and lost my Sirius badge...yet again.
E165 · 8 May 2026 · 1 hr 5 min

A Week of Lucy's 4th Birthday, Summer House Reunion, and Another Eye Surgery

This week, Lucy turned 4! We had a great Candy Party (Lollipop themed, if you ask her. Just go with it) and I had another parenting win when I got the kids into The Brady Bunch. We talked about the Summer House reunion, the audio leak, and how a Bravo fan cracked the case (story developing). Then, while I had to go back for another eye surgery on the same eyeball, John was galivanting in Paris, and getting impersonated on Grindr. Plus, we dove into listener mail, I became an expert on hoodies, and cosplayed as straight "All the Way Andy."
E164 · 1 May 2026 · 1 hr 14 min

A Week of Lady Posh, Summer House, and Talkin' Toilets

This week, John and I lost our gay minds over new Madonna music, then I was recapping my visit to St. Louis when Lady Posh surprised us! Then, later in the week I woke up feeling sick and Little Lucy (Larry) showed no mercy. Plus, we recapped this week's episode of Summer House (yikes), and I need to get my eye surgery done AGAIN!!!! (crush=crushed!)
E163 · 28 Apr 2026 · 49 min

BONUS DROP: Front Row Event for "The Devil Wears Prada 2"

It's an embarrassment of riches this week! I sat down with the Core Four of "The Devil Wears Prada 2" ahead of their premiere (cough cough, the only interview they did as a four-top!). Among other things, we covered on-screen & off-screen fashion, how intimidating Meryl Streep is, Emily & Stanley being in-laws, Anna Wintour, and if we'll get another DWP movie in another decade or two.
E162 · 24 Apr 2026 · 53 min

BONUS DROP: Front Row Event with Lena Dunham

Just because we love you, Daddy is dropping some extra content this week. I sat down with Lena Dunham to discuss her new memoir, "Famesick." They talked Girls, the cost of fame, her relationship with Jack Antonoff, working with Adam Driver, the "Summer House" drama, Feminism, rehab, and much more.

A Week of Spring Break, The Beckhams, and the Mayhem Ball

This week, I had the Best Vacation Ever (if you can believe it, JOHN!) in Aspen and Miami. I took the kids skiing and then The Beckhams hosted us for the kids' first Major League Soccer game. It was all amazing...until I second guessed how I handled Ben passing on a (once in a lifetime?!) opportunity. Then, John popped up in a promotional video for the NYC Mayor's office, I had a blast at the final Lady Gaga show, we lost our gay minds over Madonna's new music tease, and caught up on Bravo (Atlanta! Rhode Island! Summer House!!!). Plus, warm weather means outdoor showers are reactivated and…
