Talk To Me Taylor (Taylor Ferber)

A conversation I had with none other than Amber Heard in 2017 (smack in the middle of her Johnny Depp marriage and the infamous Op-Ed) just hits differently now. In this ep, I play the recordings and reflect on them in hindsight, diving into themes around women, men, victimhood, and the boxes we’ve created around it all.

I know a place where G Unit was a lullaby and Eurotrip was a bedtime story. It's the 2000's. IG Reels and Tik Toks about discovering the true, dirty meaning of '00s hits are all the rage right now, and here's the NSFW version of that concept. Kids these days are scared of their own shadow, imagine if they had to put the work in to actually burn a CD off Limewire... about hoes in different area codes nonetheless? It's called spooky season for a reason, everybody.

3 young, hot broadcasters walk into a bar... the bar that is this Zoom. Brace yourselves for this VERY candid conversation with the talented media movers and shakers who both come from traditional hard news and sports backgrounds -- Eryn Cooper (@onairwitheryn) Top 40 radio host at Nashville's Hot 106.7 and Lindsey Nance (@lindz.nance) lifestyle correspondent for Jay Cutler's Outsider platform. This ain't your father's morning show, as we give true experiences and unabashed opinions on: gender in the workplace, men and women being two sides of the same coin, being told how to dress, liberating ourselves from dino networks, rapid-style input on Adam Levine's mistress and Rihanna's Super Bowl hoopla.... and more. Going live in 3, 2, 1...

Here I am, I'm stuck in the middle with you lovely people. In Part 2 of this podcasting extravaganza, regular Fox Nation talent Michael Loftus (@theloftusparty) and I continue -- and I got some q's for my guy. Number 1: What is with conservatives' tendency to fear EVERYTHING as a conspiracy designed to ruin kids? #JUSTICE4HARRYPOTTER. 2: Isn't this Dominion lawsuit proving how both sides of media giants just pander to their base? 3: Does the right *really* give a shit that Ilan Omar was antisemitic or are they just being petty? 4: Do both sides have their own version of rewriting history? 5: Should I sleep with one eye open to watch for Trump absolutists? All this, plus: Nikki Haley, quotas, the status of cancel culture in comedy, how Michael was "soft cancelled" from Hollywood, and SO MUCH MORE.

Like Wonder Woman 84, the woke doesn't know how to pick its battles. After being ON the set and meeting the cast many times (anecdotes and interviews included), let's just say the movie left me as excited as I am about the next stimulus package. From The Cheetah being as sexy as your grandma's couch, to Pedro Pascal now haunting my REM cycle -- here are my honest thoughts. 

The Golden Globes and Blake Lively are in a Hollywood arms race to lose clout. Justin Trudeau resigned and may as well go eat pancakes with Joe Biden for a living. Yet, those from the unsung hero of a Hooters girl all the way to Trump are thriving. Mirror mirror on the wall, what really makes one powerful after all?

Working out with Mark Wahlberg still won't get you in his pants. Trust us, we've tried. In Hollywood, you never know just which A-lister you'll bump into while you meditate in a Soul Cycle séance that's simultaneously a sound bath. If it sounds insane, that's because it is. From juice cleanses to an athlete awards show, celeb trainers to hot yoga with Josh Duhamel, LA will stop at nothing to glorify looking hot. And now that you all may or may not be getting back to the gym mid-Corona for that summer bod, allow this to motivate you back to your normal regimen that does not entail candles nor kale.

Katy Perry and her attempt at a female empowerment anthem got shot down harder than Trump's ear because women are offended by their own sexuality again. Meanwhile, onward goes Kamala and the great DEI debate. We've gotten ourselves in quite a pickle in how we understand and handle women and someone hand me a venn diagram so we can really sort this out, STAT.

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.

Calling out the ADD woke police (including celebs) who blew up our feeds this Thanksgiving. Is the Easter bunny next?

According to the court of public opinion, you're either a sinner... or a saint. Because nuance can't compute in the minds of 2022 folk, everybody. This phenomenon is something Paul Johansson and I discuss regarding his dark and twisted character in "Detective Knight: Redemption" (out now) -- the action trilogy in which Grandma Dan Scott (my One Tree Hill lovers) stars alongside icon Bruce Willis. This short chat ain't like the others in Paul's junket circuit experience. We get deep about society's obsession with judging everyone and behind the scenes of working with Bruce Willis in the last bang before his retirement amid all the headline chaos around the actor's aphasia (a cognitive and language disorder) diagnosis. After this you'll think twice about how society labels people: naughty or nice. You decide.

All the success in the world, yet nothing is juusssssttt right for these folks. Sure, entitlement is at an all-time high. But in the scheme of things like legacy and impact, why do they care so much about a measly effing award?

Unpopular! We'll help you be Unpopular ;) At last I'm joined by one of my faves, Daily Mail contributor, pop culture commentator, and give no f*cks-er, Unpopular JP. This will surely get Santa's ass out of your chimney, as we discuss: Has Hollywood (JP's new home) been buried in the funeral of wokeness? Has the LGTBQIAlphabet police cannibalized the poor lil G? Plus: Why Blake Lively better have her Me Too ducks in a row if she's going in on this lawsuit and ain't just living off her hubby's Marvel royalties. And how could I forget JP's pre-show DM: "I have a lot of thoughts on Pam Anderson's rebrand lol."

Digital passport or no Billy Joel serenade at MSG for you, my friend. The conversation that, for some reason, can't be had. Until now.

Straight from Bitcoin Conference 2024, I sit down with Austin Arnold, host of one of the world’s most-watched crypto shows Altcoin Daily. From financial literacy to politicians gone Bitcoin and crypto bros to c*ck-blocking gatekeepers, this is one you won’t want to miss. ‘Cus, well, Bitcoin. That’s hot.

Sticking it to the man never looked so embarrassing. Just ask your friends in the fashion industry at Levi’s or your pals in the music biz like Neil Young. Here’s what’s happened now that the taste makers in pop culture, once known as anti-establishment badasses, have traded groupies and pushing the envelope for appeasing and tucking Twitter in at night. Leave it to Kanye to be the last man standing when it comes to sticking it to the man, and even he can’t catch a break. Smh.

The Celebrity Whisperer and Deuxmoi are reunited. Need I say more?

From Hollywood to the NBA to the FDNY, these mandates are showing one thing and one thing only: That it's time to separate the men from the boys, folks. Because when it comes down to it, are these celebrities really worth being your heroes?

Some called his movie "psuedo incestual." To actor/filmmaker James Morosini, it's his art. The 32-year-old up and comer (Sex Lives of College Girls, American Horror Story) is here to talk about his provacative, funny, and twisted film, SXSW Prize Winner, I Love My Dad. We talk being a renegade in Hollywood, what masculinity means to him in the midst of culture clash around manhood, and marching to the beat of his own drummer in a judgemental business. Big things are ahead for this guy and I'm psyched he's not only a fan of the show but was able to come on. Disclosure: he's hard to look at OK so beware!!!

Cougar life isn't for Kristin Cavallari. Young Sabrina Carpenter covers TIME and has never felt so old. Demi Moore's new movie reckons with our inevitable fate of being aged hags. It seems time really does fly when you're... hot and successful. But hate to break it to you, guys, age ain't just a numbers game for women. It's coming for all of us. 

What the respective controversies around trans Olympic rugby star Ilona Maher and WNBA player Sophie Cunnhingam have in common and why the critics need a rude awakening from their rightful place in the nosebleeds.

Tom Brady's Patriots snub, Whoopi's views of the Jews, Sean Penn's shade to men, and the Joe Rogan Spotify uproar. Each case shows us how people are set in their views, one way or another. And while the growing thought control is scarier to me than my upcoming taxes, I also wonder: how much is it up to us to meddle with those views?

How can something be so out of touch and woke at the same time? Leave it to Hollywood, baby.

^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.

PARDON my privilege, but we have some things that need to be addressed today. Different rules applied to elites versus not is nothing new. But let's talk about how it's manifested in today's dysfunctional world of politics, celebrity, and selective cancel culture. Perhaps the culmination of double standards and lies have finally led to the precipice of the beginning... of the end. It's judgement day, bitch. And I will not be Hunter's heroin(e). Good luck.

From Disney's Drag Queen kids' Halloween party to a Kentucky high school's harmless "man pageant," the internet is spiraling harder than Pete Davidson without a famous girlfriend and as per uj, both sides are too in their feelings to see the bigger more concerning picture.  

If you thought Frat Row was wild, you’re in for a rude awakening. One minute you’re boarding a mysterious shuttle on Santa Monica Blvd, the next you’re in a mansion on top of the Hollywood sign. Because we’re living through the apocalypse, take an escape with this walk down memory lane as Taylor and Emily detail some of their wild Hollywood party stories and the absurd antics of the elite. From joining G-Eazy’s entourage to painting Karrueche’s nails, step away from the solo cup and grab yourself a champagne flute, 'cause things are about to get real boughie... and weird.

Hide yo filter, hide yo Tik Tok. We have a Gen Z in the AIM (if only) chat. This week I'm getting cancelled with Sophie Beren, CEO and founder of the platform The Conversationalist... and boy oh boy, do we converse. From celeb virtue signaling to Tik Tok fame and Gen Z's existential dread, the hot takes make your favorite Bridgerton sex scene look tame.

You ready for a blast down under? Not the kind you think ;) The gorgeous, real, and lively Nicky Whelan is here to talk about her new shark thriller MANEATER, baby (with Shane West and Jeff Fahey -- in theaters and on demand). In the short but very sweet chat, we dive right into the lost appreciation and allure of the timeless vintage bombshell woman, call out society's contradictory and convoluted body image messages, as Nicky reveals her own body journey and why it's not always what it seems, and reflects on her very sexy Men's Health feature from 10 years ago that I have a feeling wouldn't go over so well with the woke folk today.

^ It's an honest question, people. And it's among the many I have during and after this very candid chat with star Clark Backo of Amazon's new (ACTUALLY funny) rom-com I Want You Back. We go there and talk about: the line of impact vs. virtue signaling (NO place in a rom-com, ty), cringey Hollywood quotas and when Clark was cast because she was "the right kind of black," why she calls BS on sentiments Joe Francis recently shared on my show about Me Too, and, yes, balls in sweatpants.

It's 2020. You thought you've seen some scary stuff. Well, bitch, you're wrong. To really give you a fright this Halloween, I go into my PTSD archives along with my fellow red carpet reporter Sam Davidson to share our most horrifying celebrity encounters to date. But seeing as how the only person more tone deaf than a celebrity in 2020 is Helen Keller (bless her soul), we're OK calling it out. As stated by Catherine Zeta Jones.... they had it comin'.

Despite political lines, can't we all agree the losers need to go? Silly Taylor. It seems that no, no we cannot. Your huckleberry tea is scorching today as I unveil stories of my firsthand experiences in Hollywood and with celebs when Time's Up first came about, and why, especially in the Cuomo saga, they continue to make me feel less optimistic about the "movement" than I should be. Wide-eyed 2018 me is shaking.

Screw the travel bans because the blondes are taking you straight to the 90210, baby. In honor of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills return, Emily and Taylor are here to tell you what your favorite housewives are really like when the cameras aren't rolling as they detail their crazy, behind-the-scenes experiences with the ladies (and house husbands and ex-house husbands) of Beverly Hills. From casual chats with Denise Richards to fashion shows with Lisa Rinna, brace yourselves for an adventure because you are about to be as up close and personal as the ice cube in Lisa Vanderpump's rosé. 

In this mini ep, you'll get a taste of this UK-based band that is about to blow up harder than Cardi B's microphone. Join me with the wildly talented and down-to-earth guys of Skinny Living, Ryan, Danny, and Will, at Analog in Nashville. We talk: Miranda Lambert and this rowdy concertgoer trend, music censorship on the heels of the Jason Aldean controversy, and the lost art of accountability, hustle, and not caring what people think.

The conversation you have behind closed doors -- with honesty, heart, disagreement... and zero censoring. I called on my two badass, fellow entertainment Nashville pals who happen to be the fiercest, most knowledgeable female activists I know to have the feminism vs. man-hating conversation. They challenge me and my female empowerment optimism (as I do them) and it's all out on the floor. Welcome Shea Carter (performer and co-founder of the Womxn of Tomorrow Foundation) and Lou Ridley (artist and songwriter) as we hit: Is "empowerment" naivety?, are genders really equal?, what is a man and masculinity?, where does culture dictating women's sexuality come into play?, and of course, where we're at with Me Too and has it been hurtful or helpful? Getting into the forbidden spaces, maybe you'll see yourself in the conversation. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll burn a bra or you may just jump your man’s bones. It's an eye-opening dialogue and if there's anything you will do -- it's think. 

From IG Live stream on Nov 4. Regardless of your political stance, this is impacting all of us so man up and accept it. And if this gets backlash then I take it you don’t want fair news... and if you don't want fair news, lose my number, hun!

A conversation with Nikki Reed about "Twilight"? Over Edward Cullen's non-dead body. This week, Taylor and Emily are joined by vet reporters Scott Huver and Alex Cramer to get a male POV on things -- and by "things" we mean that celebs aren't having any of your shit. The guys talk about how sexuality may or may not help in interviews, what the Playboy mansion was ACTUALLY like, and when Nikki Reed busted Alex's balls. Vampires may be immortal, but their memory sucks.

Cancel your NY Times subscription... and your plans. Matt Taibbi, the veteran journalist who broke the Twitter Files story, enters the chat. And there ain't no shame in our expose-them-all game. Matt is an award-winning, best-selling reporter with 30 years in the business. He's seen some things. And he's here to report back. Literally. Matt and I talk about his concerning findings in the unprecedented Twitter Files around power, influence, and control of information and thought. From testifying in Congress, to his falling out with (hypocrite much?) Elon Musk, and the IRS showing up at Matt's door -- punches are not to be pulled. We discuss getting shut out by our narrative-driven editors, our experiences at legendary outlets like Rolling Stone and Playboy (that both went from cutting edge to thought police), the bizarre left-right role reversal in the culture wars, and the future as the death of legacy media is more brutal and dragged out than the Red Wedding. 

The brilliant, beautiful, no-holds-barred Talk TV host Samara Gill joins us today from across the pond and in usual fashion, tells us how she really feels ;) Oh, behave! From UK censorship to dressing "appropriately" on camera, and the triathlon race of unlikeability between Meghan Markle, Blake Lively, and all of LA's political leaders during the wildfires, your headphones have been warned. 

Drop your balls and let’s get sporty. I’m joined today by OutKick Coverage hosts Hutton and Withrow of the Hot Mic show, and we have a chat that’ll make your locker room blush. From balls on and off the court, to the sacred nature of the locker room, and politics infiltrating the NFL — guard your nets and let’s go.

This week, Barbie puts on her gospel preacher hat. She really can do it all! The question is: Can you handle the truth she’s spitting? Amen to that.

A Hollywood insider, who was on a red carpet Oscars night, reached me eager to come on the pod and give their no holds barred take on the slap. I had no idea what they were going to say. Here's what ensued.

Bella Thorne hit OnlyFans and everyone got screwed. (Pun intended, hoes.) In a cock block of the century, the former Disney star inadvertently caused hundreds of sex workers to lose their cash flow. Sure, you may want to kick her back to Mickey Mouse's house, but the controversy is much more complex. Bringing in my experience reporting on Bella and being in Playboy, I have a fascinating convo with sex worker and OF creator Rebecca Madison as we peel back layers like: What were Bella's intentions? Who's to say celebs can't OF to make money? Are IG models considered sex workers? (BONUS: Rebecca's rituals before shooting solo porn.)

They say all good things must come to an end. From Hollywood to politics, the writing’s been on the wall - and lacking in the newsroom - for a while, kids. So today I ask: Is the interview one of them? Or will the autistic billionaires and ousted anchors be the ones to save us after all?

In a world of Marry Me’s, be a Pam and Tommy. Both of these buzzy projects explore the world where celebrity, sex, and privacy collide, and in this ep we cannonball harder than shallow Hal’s girlfriend into these themes, how the media treats one versus the other, and my personal J. Lo story that ties it ALL together. Kumbaya, bitch, and may your week bring more excitement than the entirety of J.Lo’s romcom that has sexual chemistry equivalent to a grain of sand. Cheers.

Here at Cancel Me, Baby, we're in the business of giving the people what they want. A sexy look at the iconic, OG booty is no exception. Enter Jason Moore, director of the new rom-com action flick SHOTGUN WEDDING (starring J.Lo, Josh Duhamel, your best friend Jennifer Coolidge, and your sex god Lenny Kravitz), who's also here to do just that. We talk about how J.Lo manages to OWN her bare butt... and simultaneously the whole damn room, navigating that in the "male gaze" meltdown era, what's really behind Lenny Kravitz's infamous sunglasses, the real-life dichotomy of his rockstar persona, and how J.Lo's in on the scrutiny of her love life. Putting the ASS in badass, everyone. 

Alex Cooper's "Call Her Daddy" interview with Megan Fox suggests Megan's iconic sex symbol status is misogynistic and I think the gals are confused over there! Here's some clearing up ;)

My most personal episode yet. Ep 200 of Cancel Me, Baby shot exactly one year to the day since I began the physical and mental transformation journey of a lifetime. With cultural extremes on all ends dictating image, acceptance, standards, and boxes, this is MY story. Live-action footage included and all, Operation: Sex Goddess Body has landed. And we're just getting started.

Saddle up, cowboys and girls. Biz-savvy BABE Juliet Schroder, founder of the hugely successful platform Celeb Secrets (think: sexy Variety), is here. From Hollywood to NYC and here in Nashville, we have seen it all in behind-the-scenes celebrity chaos, and these two tri-state broads have opinions to share and stories to tell. We talk big picture ideas like the questionable state of celebrity and mainstream women freeing their sexuality, down to timely controversies like Beyonce's country debut frenzy and Megan Fox's self-deprecating Ukrainian sex doll joke. Yeehaw. 

Porn, that is. Join me for a conversation with Sofia Kappel, star of the new film Pleasure (out in LA & NY today) about an ambitious, up-and-comer's journey in the LA porn scene as she's determined to be the next big star at any cost. Sofia and I have a vulnerable conversation about women and agency, complexities of the porn industry that the media doesn't capture, grey area around consent and Me Too, Sofia's experience holding it down in an ensemble of adult film's most high-profile figures (one of whom I know), and more. Plus, my solo analysis with some additional thoughts.

Tourists from all over the country flock to Nashville eager to experience and snap pics at Blake Shelton's downtown Broadway bar Ole Red. But not everyone is backstage at said establishment causing a ruckus with important entertainment folks... like I was. Here's the story of what actually happened behind the scenes interviewing Blake and his Barmageddon co-stars Nikki Bella and Carson Daly and how I wound up in quite a pickle, but a pickle with a few important takeaways and as always, a bigger message for us all. Bottoms up.

Joe Biden's first cabinet meeting in a year mistakes us for morons. Trump out-Trumps himself in a St. Jude moment. Chappell Roan's common sense political sentiment has gone viral for some reason. In the reality show of our lives, who will you vote off the island?

Former Hollywood actress (Modern Family, New Girl) turned marketing extraordinaire (featured at SXSW, by Glamour, etc) Kelsey Formost is back for PART 2 of our fascinating conversation on the inner working of manipulation and power in none other than... show business, baby!!! Kelsey reveals why she full-on walked out of an audition for a famed horror franchise. She openly speaks to pissing off your reps, dicey Me Too situations, looking at Mad Men in a different light, the return of Entourage (will boys be boys?), art mirroring reality no matter how much they want to erase that, and do gay men give away their gayness in straight on-screen scenes? If so, can you blame 'em?! And lastly, the state of womanhood -- whatever that even means right now.

Their motivations for world domination differ. But when it comes to media hysteria and narratives around each of them, there's no last call.

Your local great white shark ain't got shit when going up against a capable hottie. Aussie Teressa Liane (The Vampire Diaries) is here to talk about her summer thriller, the very Jaws-esque The Reef: Stalked, as we hit: hot girl horror tropes, the viral bikini meme that made everyone feel a type of way, survival mode of going up against a great white.... the great white that is our lives, and more. The Reef: Stalked is in theaters and streaming on Shudder. 

Join me in a brief chat with stars Diana Silvers (Booksmart), Kristine Froseth (Hulu's Looking for Alaska), and writer/director Sarah Adina Smith (FX’s Legion, HBO’s Room 104), about their edgy new Amazon Prime movie Birds of Paradise. In a world that is SHAMEless (see: VMAs in ep. 88), I give them kudos for not delivering gratuitous sex scenes for shock value. This chat definitely gave me inspiration for thoughts and future eps so stay the eff tuned!

Many of us able-minded folk were shocked... that the media was so shocked... by Joe Biden's decrepit debate performance. Were they outright lying about the state of his cognitive ability this entire time, or did they *actually* believe his brain worked? This applies to issues far beyond Joe Biden, and in this episode, we explore today's nature of people purely seeing what they want to see. Are they brainwashed... or just blind?

Like Clark Griswold's jelly of the month club, my red carpet interviews prove to be the gift that keeps on giving. In the Cancel Me, Baby! 2021 finale, I'm looking back on hot-button topics I discussed with celebs before they became more explosive than your local Karen. In Part 2, we hit: masculinity (where'd it go doe), physical interaction (metaverse sex, amiright), AND the young star I talked to about labels and boxes who ultimately came out as trans in TIME this year(!!!) Time to rock out with your crystal balls out.

After having personal and professional experience with both Dave Portnoy and Business Insider *and* being on the frontlines of Hollywood when Me Too first started..... a bitch has some thoughts on this new Business Insider "hit piece" on Portnoy that Ronan Farrow probably didn't ask for. 

You'd rather off yourself Mr. Big style than attend another ugly sweater Zoom party, and your drunk aunt is about to pester you about your wretched love life. Lucky for you, Christmas came early with this dose of escapism, sanity, nostalgia, and a lil bit of the unhinged. In Part 1 of the Cancel Me, Baby 2021 end-of-year series, I revisit talking with celebs about hot-button topics a bit before their time, when they were yet to be as mainstream, controversial, and divisive as they are today. A self-proclaimed ancestor of Nostradamus himself, topics in Part 1 are: censorship and cancel culture (how real is real?), Me Too (too far gone?), and sexual expression (empowerment or stupidity?). Look out, Miss Cleo (...from the grave). There's a new bitch in town.

PS- I realize I said Spider-Man: Far From Home instead of No Way Home, get over it

On this Valentine's Day, I sit down with Glenny Balls of Barstool's Only Stans show to really take romance to the next level. So screw your chocolates. Screw your jewelry. And most certainly screw your flowers. I have an announcement of the ages and let's just say this lame Hallmark holiday is about to get a lot more sexy and interesting -- Cancel Me, Baby style. Nothing to see here, folks. Except actually, there is.

From the display of shameless influencers at Coachella's Revolve Fest gone south, to Abercrombie's rebranding comeback (with a lil Musk and JK Rowling sprinkled in, of course), a look at our society's desperation - and lack thereof - of having a good image. 

End of 2021 PT 3: From sending women's rights off the Titanic, to Vogue's woke outrage about Pam & Tommy, the ever-changing dictionary, to celeb politicians, nothing has or will make sense. But god damn it, we're going to try our best. 

What AOC's Met Gala dress, constant celebrity tonsil hockey, and Tik Tok influencers have in common: a thesis.

When bin Laden was killed, I was among the thousands of college kids and Americans who flooded the streets in celebration. 12 years later, we're again seeing thousands take to the streets in celebration... this time, of terrorists. Dr. Sheila Nazarian, Emmy-winning TV personality, esteemed Beverly Hills plastic surgeon, and activist, enters the chat for a no-holds-barred, brutally honest conversation with me as two Jewish women in the media deeply affected by the war in Israel. We air out the thoughts and questions you've had behind closed doors. Is our society, the product of a TikTok information war, really that ignorant? Or is it just a deep, pure resentment and disregard of Jews? It's the conversation you're not seeing anywhere else, and in some ways, a rude awakening. 

While getting ready to sue part of the mainstream media's ass, the Barstool founder and I get into the nitty gritty of Me Too, masculinity vs. respect, women's sexuality vs. exploitation... and has cancel culture caused him to reel it back? Welcome to Cancel Me, Baby to the Pres himself.

Coming to you live from District 12. By popular demand, a genuine unpacking of the 2020 Emmy Awards. Did the show really need to happen in a year that's made us wish we had amnesia? Did celebs REALLY have to set up red carpets in their own back yards? Did E! go as far as COVID-ing their own hosts to get better ratings? I'm someone who's not only sat between celebs and ordered drinks with them AT the Emmys, but is now seeing it from all sides. Let the games begin. 

He may be a sleaze. But she ain't naive. A different and deeper look into the Adam Levine affair hoopla that is literally and figuratively coming for Queen Elizabeth and the throne of her death's spotlight. Also, the bigger picture of how conservative, anti-women pundits are just as self-righteous as woke, anti-men celebs (funny how that works), and how Armie Hammer's ex-wife was somehow the voice of reason above it all this week.

A white reporter and black reporter walk into a bar.... then call BS on it all. This week, I have a raw dialogue with my friend and fellow red carpet correspondent Evan Jackson about celebrity's place in media right now and becoming irrelevant in the overarching PC culture. From Chris Pratt's Twitter tirade to lame ass reboots, and Kanye to Stan Lee, we're pulling no punches and calling it as we see it. Suck on this, big tech.

If you're a troll, lose my info. The PC mob has made our lives hell 'til the bitter end of 2020, and in the final episode of the year, Mrs. Rogers has officially entered the chat as I discuss how these woke antics are impacting every aspect of our culture - from movies to mainstream news, and now even books. Because if there's one thing that is the absolute biggest boner killer and SHOULD be cancelled in the new year... it's hate. 

The Victoria's Secret Angel is becoming a thing of the past... like my prior wokeness. Yes, folks. I used to be woke. Like, the wokest. It's a personal discovery that started with angels in the VS heavens and took me through Lin Miranda-Manuel's (recently criticized) Washington Heights. And it leaves me wondering: Did I, and others like me, change? Or did the woke just forget what it wants to be?

#meta #markzuckerberg #freespeech Comment, Rate, and Follow! Turns out, people don't like getting their wig (that is their speech) snatched after all. Zuck leaves time out and severs ties with his government mommy and daddy telling him how to censor Meta. My journalist friend has been personally and publicly dragged into Blake Lively's lawsuit as a pawn for committing the crime of... posting a video. The TikTok rapture may force thousands into real jobs so they can be just as bitter irl. Suddenly, "free speech" is the name of the game. My question is: What does this fundamentally say about us? Moreover, where the f*ck has everyone been?

You've seen the viral videos. You've shared the memes. You may as well have PTSD from Blake Lively and Anne Hathaway yourself. Kjersti Flaa (YouTube: @Flaawsometalk) is a veteran entertainment journalist who's blown UP doing the lord's work in exposing Hollywood dysfunction and reality of celebrity interviews, and was just featured on the cover of New York Times for it. Today, in celebration of the show's 300th episode, she joins me to talk about what others won't regarding the toxic enabling cycle in entertainment. Two blondes take on the Hollywood machine. Hide your kids, wives, and celebs.

What the recent events around AOC, Candace Owens, and Betty White say about this entitled generation's views of sex, each other... and, but of course, themselves. 

What do Olivia Wilde, Candace Owens, Chrissy Teigen, and Tomi Lahren have in common? What, like I’d give it all away in the description? ;) Without spoiling, my special 50th episode is dedicated to the REAL ones who are actually "women supporting women," and not just using it as some BS tagline. This one is for you.

Just call me Christina Aguilera because I'm a genie in a bottle giving you the ep you've been wanting. As someone who's literally bonded with Euphoria's Sydney Sweeney over our big boobs, I'm dissecting, well, the Sydney Sweeney of it all and why her statements ain't doing millennials, women, or the blonde stereotype any damn favors.

This spur-of-the-moment, romantic, late-night solo ep is a reflection on my recent interviews with thought leaders Dr. Robert Malone and Matt Taibbi and how it ties into a wild real-life debate about women's sexuality I had over the weekend AND the overnight success of your fave ginger in the woods Oliver Anthony. But how, you ask? Don't ask questions. Talk To Me Taylor will make it all make sense.

National treasure and award-winning journalist Mariana van Zeller is one of the last REAL reporters standing. In a fascinating and honest chat about the findings of her Nat Geo series "Trafficked: Underworlds," we explore the politicization, glorification, and humanization of the world's most dangerous black markets. PLUS, her input on how being a woman allows her to go toe-to-toe with some of the biggest and most violent players will blow your mind. RESPECT.

...but here we are. An open dialogue about race in pop culture with the kickass woman behind @DifferentVoiceX. From Chris Harrison to Sharon Osbourne, and "digital blackface" to Cardi B, we go there. Get your WAPs ready.

I've interviewed R. Kelly survivors, penned think pieces on it, and have never shied away from my support of #MeToo. Now, in light of the Armie Hammer situation, I bring to the table what I see as a slippery slope and potential downside of the movement that people aren't really publicly discussing... one that could impact your brothers, husbands, dads, and any man in your life. And for the love of god, may we get some cheerier news this week.

New look. Same me, baby! Welcome to the leveled-up rebrand debut of Talk To Me Taylor. May the ghost of Cancel Me, Baby always be with us in spirit, amen. It's the exciting first ep of this new chapter, but alas, some things never change. After clawing my way out of the archives, I highlight standout celebrity interactions since the start of my journey with this platform many Joe Biden states of dementia ago, while looking at the big picture of our culture war and divisiveness. Consider this a call to put on our big girl and boy pants on, get over our shit, and have the conversation. In other words, time to TALK... to me, Taylor ;)

Athletes do it. Actors do it. Singers do it. You guessed it: Give us unsolicited advice on politics and preach about social issues... all the way from their mansions. But at the same time, we get pissed when they're censored. So where's the line?

A rebel with a cause, Dr. Robert Malone is a world-renowned physician who was just a little too inconvenient for the powers that be during the pandemic. As an architect of mRNA technology, Dr. Malone voiced concerns over Covid vaccine safety and mandates (going viral on Joe Rogan) and -- to no surprise -- was completely defamed. Sticking it (no pun intended) to Fauci and every major US media outlet, he's made his speaking rounds, he's fostered a massive Substack following, but now the Cancelled King is here like you haven't seen him before. In Cancel Me, Baby style, we're peeling back the curtain as Dr. Malone enters the chat with his partner in (thought) crime, confidante, and in many ways, the brains behind his operation, his longtime wife Dr. Jill Malone, to share their story in a different light. Now let's get to it, #thescience is waiting. 

Tell me how you really feel. This episode is ALL things real versus fake with interviews from Blended Fest Nashville about: influencer culture, honest dynamics between men and women vs. the PC mainstream version, social media outings vs. real life, and our obsession with image, filters, and plastic surgery. Interviews include: Blended executive sommelier Matthew-Loren (@thelordofwine), Top 40 radio host Eryn Cooper (@onairwitheryn), artist & TikTok star Michael McCrae (@michaelmccraemusic), top-ranked influencer Jody Slevin (slevin_couture), and beauty influencer Britney Moya (@rockmeupmakeup). Filter me, I dare you.

Left, right, black, white, and everything in between, we love nothing more than picking sides, labeling one another, judging, and cancelling. And based on what? I sit down with Joy Villa, an AfroLatina musician known for her controversial Grammys dresses and upcoming book "Kickass Conservative," in a refreshingly raw dialogue, from BLM to WAP. And if you want to cancel us, go ahead. Because those boxes we're put in that suggest who we are and what we really think? They can eff off.

What's worse: the fact that influencers like Khloe Kardashian tweak the hell out of their photos and pass them off as real, or that the media is too scared to call it out? 

In a galaxy far, far away, the fight for women made sense. But to be quite frank, both sides are effing it up. In an episode you don't want to miss, I'm here today to expose ironies and hypocrisies on both sides of the explosive Roe v Wade debate. Plus, I address the big picture everyone's missing, because they're too caught up being mad over a Kim Kardashian dress, to shed light on who's really being left out of the culture war dialogue and how those are the most important with the most to lose. She's on one today, folks. Get ready.

David Yontef of Behind the Velvet Rope interviews everyone from drunken reality stars to legendary A-listers and all the while he has the the Vogues, the Vanity Fairs and the like shaking in fear. David has the balls to give controversial guests a platform to air out their unpopular opinions and... wait for it.... doesn't censor or argue with them. THE HORROR!!!!!!! Today he tells his side. (Thoughts and prayers can be made to his DMs, ty.)

Taylor Swift and Sophie Turner. Bill Maher and Howard Stern. Cindy Crawford and Oprah. Emma Roberts and her AHS co-star. Maren Morris and everyone she ever looked at, apparently. Pettiness will never die. But when does it go too far?

Segregation is making a comeback and asking: "Why are you so obsessed with me?"

Some view "progress" as pulling Dave Chappelle's Netflix special. Others, like myself, view progress as actually making a joke. Our society seems to want to dictate not only what we can think but what we can laugh at, and all I can say is icons like Richard Pryor are looking down on us from comedy heaven wondering wtf is going on. Throw Christopher Columbus in there too since he's fucked anyway.

Back by popular demand, it's none other than Girls Gone Wild creator Joe Francis. Joe was dragged by the media last week and called a creep after posting an old photo with his buddy Kylie Jenner and her notorious ass. In a provocative battle of the sexes convo, not for the woke faint of heart, we get into men and women objectifying each other, biological impulses and men's visual nature, women's autonomy, what he'd say about his own daughters doing Girls Gone Wild, Steven Spielberg's daughter doing porn, and studs verses creeps like Jeffrey Toobin. Eat your heart out, tabloids.

Did you know your IG, your Gmail, your Facebook... aren't really yours? Someone had to break it to you, sweetie. Consider this Decentralization for Dummies in today's Cancel Me, Baby chat featuring entrepreneur Justin Rezvani. His endeavor Zion is backed by influential figures like Tony Robbins, Aaron Rodgers, and internet star JP Sears as he leads the charge in innovating how we communicate, take ownership of our work, and make money in the digital world moving forward. We talk about the layers of Big Tech cock-blocking our speech with made up rules, the cashflow (or lack thereof) of it all, his naysayers, and get into hot-button issues to see how uncancellable Justin really is. How free are you, really?

Let's take a moment of silence for the massacre of the legacy media. Actually, let's not and say we did. This obliteration has been a long time coming... but it's officially here, so, now what? What is the phoenix that will rise from the ashes of certified out-of-touch celebrity culture and delusional media elites -- other than me riding the rise of Elon's dragon sword, of course. 

May I have your attention, please? Will the real non-robots please stand up. The only thing more stifling than your Christmas sweater this holiday season is the excessive censorship going on in this country. Someone call the thought police because entertainment pro Claire Friday and I have words for the media and Big Brother.... I mean Big Tech lords. If you're reading this, Zucky, it's too late.

You've heard of the trans athlete Lia Thomas. My guest Riley Gaines is the woman who competed against and tied with her in the arena. Then, she was robbed of the accomplishment and recognition. Riley's vulnerable and authentic Op-Ed detailing her experience was published yesterday on a national platform and today the 12x NCAA All-American and Olympic qualifier joins me for an honest discussion on women's rights, labels, common sense, and the twisted form of misogyny happening in sports culture and beyond. Safe to say, locker room talk just got a whole new meaning.

She's the OG TikToker on femininity. But don't you dare call her Boss Babe. Alexi Turner, creator of the Empress Collective (former employee for Gaga and booking agent for Victoria's Secret, GQ), is an expert on all things female/male archetypes and honoring traditional gender roles. Cancellable, HONEY! In all of its Nashville in-person glory, we talk: Who hurt you, Andrew Tate?, the sexuality battle of Madonna vs. Cardi B and Britney vs. Selena, is modern America where men have it worse & traditionalists are edgy?, is feminism bad?, what's "toxic masculinity," REALLY?, Candace Owens treating sex as the antichrist, do men really get more money and pleasure?, Gisele and Tom's power dynamic, and why successful female millionaires wind up with gay men. Ladies who lunch, INDEED.

No virtue signaling detected here. This striking new social commentary is the real deal. Entering the chat is BAFTA Winner Laya DeLeon Hayes, star of the SXSW-selected horror film "The Angry Black Girl and Her Monster." A chilling "Get Out"-like commentary on urban culture and black-on-black violence, the film depicts the modern black experience inspired by Mary Shelley’s original “Frankenstein." Laya talks about how it feels taking on the iconic Frankenstein role as a woman, her real thoughts on the "angry black person" stereotype and white folks navigating these convos behind the scenes, and her experience as a young black woman with black history and integration versus generations prior. Get your mad scientist hats on and check it out in theaters on June 9 and on demand June 23.

It's the Erin Brockovich of it all in today's episode with recovering "Big Law" attorney Ashley Fillingim @KickAshLaw who takes 20 years of repping Fortune 500 clients to speak to the toddlers in government, news, and social media making up rules for us. We talk: misogynistic Avengers(?), Disney, DeSantis and their dick-off, the sitting president getting the boot from Twitter, Kylie Jenner's questionably defiant nipples, the most ridiculous post of Ashley's that was censored, her friend getting de-platformed for talking about vitamins, and..... can Chrissy Teigen sue me? She's a little spitfire so get ready because court is in session.

From a Grammys performance, to a new Netflix "comedy" (will fact check this), and your throwback Pam Anderson centerfold, we have no idea how to feel about anything anymore. And I blame the lovechild of our psycho media and culture.
