Chris Franjola: Shane Gillis, Dane Cook & Do Comics Deserve More Money?
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.

Zack Peter on Selma Blair, Milania Giudice & the Hugh Hefner Movie Controversy
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.

The Housewives Divorce Curse Strikes Again with Kate Casey
Kate Casey is back, and we're starting with the news that Whitney Rose from Real Housewives of Salt Lake City has filed for divorce from her husband, Justin. We get into the Housewives curse and why so many of these marriages fall apart once the cameras start rolling, and what may have been going on behind the scenes for Whitney. I also share my theory on how the latest Real Housewives of New York divorce news may have played into her timing. Then we break down the scene where Andy finally apologizes to Melissa and Teresa for how Bravo brought Melissa onto Ultimate Girls Trip behind Teresa's back, and we gush about The Golden Life with our New York OGs. Plus, Kylie Jenner has a new acting project, and I share my predictions for how it will go. Kate tells me about her latest interview on the story behind St. Elmo's Fire. And we dig into Real Housewives of Orange County and how the way a Housewife was parented shapes how she parents her own kids, including whether Emily's children would be better off if she weren't on TV. • Right now, Nutrafol is offering our listeners $10 off your first month’s subscription and free shipping when you visit https://Nutrafol.com and enter promo code JUICYSCOOP • Use code JUICYSCOOP at https://jonesroadbeauty.com to get a Free Gift with your first purchase! #JonesRoadBeauty #ad • Download Cash App today and make your money work for you.
