Summary

This week, Aleen and Sami begin with a tribute to Michelle Trachtenberg, in light of her tragic passing on Wednesday. Then, they unpack the news that infamous conman Billy McFarland is back with plans for Fyre Festival 2, featuring a lot of vague ideas and exactly zero confirmed artists. Will Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino make an appearance? Who exactly is shelling out $1.1mil for VIP tickets to the "experience of Fyre" (whatever that means)? In podcast news, Alix Earle's podcast has been dropped by Alex Cooper's Unwell Network, amidst rumors and Deux Moi posts hinting at tension between the Al(i/e)xes. Speaking of Alex Cooper, Monica Lewinsky promoted her new podcast with a guest appearance on Call Her Daddy this week, stirring Aleen and Sami's formative elementary school memories of the scandal and impeachment trial. Next up, they dive into the series premiere of The Baldwins - from Hilaria doubling down on the Spanish accent, to Alec's Rust trial, to their seven (seven!) kids, to the ultimate question of: ¿por qué? Pivoting from trashy reality to prestige scripted, they share their latest White Lotus takes. Our Betch of the Week is Rihanna, for the exciting news about her long-awaited 9th album, and we're sending Billy McFarland off to the Caymans because we know how much he loves an island.
