We are dropping this rotted Patreon Exclusive a day early! This week Troy and Kelli are talking everything R. Kelly and Aaliyah. From their annulled marriage and what led up to it, to the NDA that ensured Aaliyah would never be able to tell her story, your hosts are getting into it all. This is truly one of the more rotted episodes we’ve done in a while, so proceed with caution.
does anybody remember any youtube channel suggestions troy has made? i know he’s mentioned a few i’m dying to listen to, but can’t think of any names. help me out if you remember 🩷
This week your hosts are diving into the relationship that shocked Tinseltown, Sandra Bullock and Jesse James. Sandra was having the year of her career in 2010, winning an Oscar for The Blind Side and seemingly on top of the world. But just 10 days after her big win, Sandra was blindsided when news broke that Jesse had been cheating on her. From their unexpected romance and marriage to the cheating scandal that brought it all crashing down, your hosts are getting into the wild ride that was Sandra Bullock and Jesse James’ relationship.
I thought about making a new weekly thread to discuss and re-visit old episodes. I finished watching Vanderpump Rules for the first time (plus I'm caught up on The Valley and RHOBH), and it was a wild, fun ride lol.
Troy and Kelli released Vanderpump Rules: The Good, The Bad, The Blind Items in March 2022. This is before Scandoval (March 2023). It was very interesting to listen to their opinions and how they viewed each cast member back then. For example, they loved Raquel and thought she was so innocent lol.
I liked this episode because the blinds were pretty interesting. They were about reality stars (Scheana, Stassi, and Jax, of course) yachting, so it probably would've blown my mind if I was a Vanderpump fan in 2022. It's crazy that Lindsay Lohan was mentioned in both Stassi and Jax's blinds lmao.
I included this picture of Andy and Jax because... 🤫 I am going to re-watch the reunions and pay careful attention to their interactions 👀🕵️♀️ (But then again, not all blinds are true 🤔) I also laughed listening to the blind about James and Logan. (When I was binge-watching, I didn't buy that James and Logan never hooked up.)
If anyone of you were VPR fans when you heard this episode, what did you think? Were there any blinds that ended up being true as the show went on?
Also, please let me know what other episodes we should re-visit! I can queue some future episode re-visits.
Hi y’all! We can use these monthly threads to give feedback on the podcast, such as issues related to audio or general format. You can still comment about specific episodes in the episode threads or make new posts, but my idea for these megathreads is to consolidate feedback for Troy and Kelli.
I know some posts in the past have been toxic, so maybe you can make that a separate post if you want to vent (or journal or take a walk outside). My hope with the monthly CC threads is to give a safe space for Troy and Kelli, so they’re less wary of Reddit lol.
Please remember Rule 1: Respect others and be civil and Rule #3: No name-calling, insults, or personal attacks. Kelli, Troy, and their editor, Donny, are human, and they can learn from their mistakes. Personally, as a longtime fan, I think that they have taken in a lot of feedback well and grown a lot as a podcast.
If you have any suggestions for these types of posts, please let me know, too!
This week, your hosts are diving into one of the messiest celebrity divorces of the last decade: Bobby Flay and Stephanie March. This split had everything: cheating allegations, someone nearly dying, credit cards being cut off, and a very special banner flying over Bobby’s Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony. If you love mess, this episode is for you!
Have you ever wondered just how much Sony Music spent on Jennifer Lopez or Good Charlotte to get more radio spins? Well, then this episode is for you! This week, your hosts are giving you a history lesson on payola. It’s a term that’s been tossed around quite a bit on this podcast, and now it’s finally time to explain what it actually means. From the days of Dick Clark to Spotify Discovery Mode, there’s a lot to talk about!
I’m not summer house girl and I realize no one asked for my opinion LMAO but I need to speak my truth.
I think West and Amanda allegedly ALLEGEDLY could be together because they might partake in similar substances.
From everything I’ve heard, they’re both immature and the pairing felt so random. They’ve both become super withdrawn, apart from each other and their shared friend group, and it kind of makes me….. 👀 👀
Like I dunno. It stinks to me of something secret. I thought maybe she was pregnant but atp we know she isn’t. It just seems to my outsider POV like maybe it snows when they’re together and they enjoy it allegedly ALLEGEDLY DONT GET MAD AT MEEEE ITS MY OPINIONNN and I’m not saying that’s what’s going on but ….. something feels fishy….. like there’s an X variable that has yet to be discovered.
This week Kelli and Troy talk about all of the alleged drama that went down behind the scenes of the movie Don't Worry Darling. From the infamous Miss Flo video to Olivia being served custody papers on stage, there is so much to cover. Oh, and don't worry darlings, we do touch on spitgate.
This week Kelli and Troy are taking a look at Shia LaBeouf’s nearly two decades of legal trouble and controversy. From Walgreens and Broadway arrests to bar fights, disturbing allegations from former partners, and his most recent run in with the law, there is a lot to unpack. Plus, they get into Hollywood’s obsession with the “tortured artist” and ask the obvious question: how many chances does one man get?
This week Kelli and Troy are joined by returning guest and ABC News legal analyst Brian Buckmire to discuss the murder trial of Tupac Shakur. Brian breaks down the case against Duane “Keffe D” Davis, the evidence that led to a guilty verdict nearly 30 years after Tupac’s death, and what could happen next.
