From all things Hollywood, celebrity romances, Bravo TV to her real-life drama, Heather tackles the juiciest and most controversial topics.

Chris Franjola and I kick things off with an update on Martha Stewart’s Halloween mishap before getting into our own costumes. We talk about AI coming for stand-up comedy, why Ozempic is apparently causing divorces (we have a theory), and Justin Timberlake’s upcoming four-part tell-all docuseries, which will revisit the Janet Jackson wardrobe malfunction. Druski has a new show out called Collect and Praise, which sends us down a rabbit hole about pastors: how they act once they’re caught cheating, and who still shows up to a parish where the pastor has been suspected of killing his wife. Plus, Todd Chrisley says he briefly worked as an escort at 18 (I have my doubts), and Paris Jackson wants her $600 million from her dad’s estate. And don’t forget to come see Chris and me do stand-up together in San Diego on November 14th!

I’m so excited to introduce you to my niece and nephew, whose movie Breeder is out now in theaters. But first, I tell you about the big mistake Martha Stewart made on Halloween, and whether her makeup artist, Daisy from Real Housewives of New York City, might be to blame. Plus, the Summer House scandal that rocked us, Amanda and West dating, is still going strong, and neither of them is returning to the show. Then we get into Breeder. I share how my niece Devyn LaBella and I reconnected, which was truly a case of the stars aligning. Alex Goyette opens up about being an independent filmmaker, what it took to get this movie made and all the setbacks along the way. The inspiration behind it is stranger than fiction: a poodle breeder who decides to start breeding humans, and a main character who is a lot like Alex himself. It’s such a juicy interview, and I think you’ll love it. -Order now at https://drinkwillies.com and use code JUICY for 20% off your first order plus free shipping on orders over $95.

Today I have a great interview with Jessel Taank from The Real Housewives of New York City! We talk about whether she was ever a Housewives fan before joining the show, how she ended up being cast in the first place, and the shocking rumor that her husband Pavit is gay, plus how they dealt with it as a couple. She also tells me about their unlikely courtship before marriage, which may have fed the rumor. Jessel opens up about being the first Housewife of Indian descent and how that’s been the best part of her three-year journey, along with the worst part of being a Housewife and what the future holds for her now that she has this platform. We also go through her castmates, and we both give our true opinions, from Sai to Haley Glassman and Daisy’s ungratefulness on a private island. But first, I have an update on Elizabeth Holmes and what her husband Billy Evans is supposedly saying about his full-frontal scene in You Can See Everything, Savannah Chrisley’s pregnancy and the crazy connection between her baby daddy and her dad, and the latest on the cheating scandal rocking the podcast world. -Find the fall pieces you’ll reach for most at Quince.

I break down Bravo's fan fest, where Bethenny Frankel went after Andy Cohen and the network announced some controversial new shows. Which series could be canceled or recast, and is Brielle Biermann really being left out because of her family trauma? Another hot podcasting couple has split, allegedly over infidelity with a fan turned employee. I ask why so many people are coming after Gina on Real Housewives of Orange County, and I dish on Tom Brady's new girlfriend. I review Collin Gosselin's book as Kate Gosselin fights back in the comments, and I ask why so much child abuse seemed to happen on TLC. Plus, there's a possible break in the Nancy Guthrie case, Sofia Vergara is spotted with another man, Chrishell Stause makes a teary announcement, and Jen Shah brags about being best friends with Elizabeth Holmes. Finally, Kim Kardashian's book is coming and I analyze why Paris Hilton canceled 17 times and never took part. -Find the fall pieces you’ll reach for most at Quince.

On today’s Juicy Scoop, the hottest topic is TJ Holmes and Amy Robach. They lost their TV hosting jobs over their affair while both were married to other people, and now they’re married to each other and both of their exes are engaged! I also get into other famous couples this has happened to, plus the latest on Kim Zolciak and Kroy Biermann’s divorce. Jay-Z picked himself to perform at the Super Bowl. After five years of believing she had MS, Christina Applegate has been told she doesn’t. And I have an update on Selma Blair, who does have MS, and her arrest after allegedly attacking people on a plane. Dancing with the Stars had a pregnancy announcement and drama over a social media post, and RHOSLC’s Brandon has a past relationship with a Real Housewife. Then it’s my interview with Dorothy Wang, formerly of Rich Kids of Beverly Hills and Bling Empire, who now has her own series about her wedding. We talk about the fallout of her 15-year friendship with Morgan Stewart and why strong female friendships can blow up like that. Were they ever really your friend, or a frenemy? It’s so juicy and very behind the scenes on how reality shows get made and cast. You’ll love it!

Kempire is here, and we're getting into all the hot topics! First up, I'm breaking down You Can See Everything, the number one movie about Elizabeth Holmes: what was real, what wasn't, and what her real intention was in doing this film. Selena Gomez opens up about vaping and how it's affected her voice, and Miley Cyrus addresses fans about her lack of enthusiasm at the Hollywood Bowl. Then Kempire joins me for Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. I remind you my new song drops this Thursday, October 22nd, and ask: am I bothered by Housewives who can't sing becoming pop stars? Plus, what did Bronwyn pay her boyfriend, and was he even a boyfriend at all? We dig into Real Housewives of New York and the Jeffrey Epstein of it all, and what Emily really meant when she said Shane was watching a how-to video on pleasing women down there on RHOC. And finally, the most explosive show right now, Real Housewives of Potomac: Dr. Wendy and her husband Eddie's fraud charges, and Tia's husband getting caught with a dating profile.

Chris Franjola is back on Juicy Scoop, and we have so much to get into! We debate the Sebastian Maniscalco comedy channel drama and whether working comics really got screwed, I finally tell the story of the opening act who trashed me on the radio, and we weigh in on Shane Gillis’ SNL monologue. Chris confesses his date with a much younger woman, which ended in a branzino disaster. We also break down the Baywatch reboot trailer, Pamela Anderson’s no-makeup era, Dane Cook’s documentary, Tom Cruise’s box office bomb, the James Corden plane story, and the scary Six Flags ride closures. And the BIG news: I’m debuting my brand new Juicy Scoop theme song, and you’ll hear Chris’s reaction first!

Zack Peter is back, and we’re starting with Selma Blair’s arrest after an alleged attack on a flight attendant mid-flight. Milania Giudice reveals she’s been in a mental health facility and plans to use her platform for good, and I share my prediction for what’s next for her. One of my old predictions just came true: Joe Manganiello’s new autobiography confirms what really ended his marriage to Sofía Vergara. Shane Gillis is getting slammed for his SNL monologue, including by Dan Levy, and Zack tells the wild story of what went down between Kelly Clarkson and the Art of Play store. Britney Spears keeps posting old videos, and we’ve made peace with it. Then we compare Angie’s divorce on Real Housewives of Salt Lake City to Emily’s marriage drama on Real Housewives of Orange County. We review the movie Verity, and get into the upcoming Hugh Hefner movie and why his widow, Crystal, is begging Jessica Biel to reconsider her role. -Order now at https://drinkwillies.com and use code JUICY for 20% off your first order plus free shipping on orders over $95. -With Nutrafol Strand Serum, your length goals are officially in reach.
