50m · Celebrity Book Club with Steven & Lily · 27 Mar 08:00

MEME THIS, B*TCH! Pour yourself a glass of White Girl Rosé as we discuss OG Meme Lord Josh Ostrovsky (aka The Fat Jew) and his memoir, "Money Pizza Respect." We go balls-deep into this freaking epic book and cover splooging on Russian strippers, why making fun of Tampa is for hacks, Nintendo Power Gloves, the evolution of male friendship, top buns, pre-Trump era comedy, and how he literally invented being an influencer. We also pose the question: where is he???

Constance “Sex Quirkster” Wu

What if I told you Hollywood isn’t all it’s cracked up to be? This week we read award-winning actress Constance Wu’s memoir “Making a Scene”and it’s, dare we say, pretty random. We discuss her time as a struggling actress, sex in Union Square, canceling a “Fresh Off the Boat” producer (and co-star backlash), owning a bunny, Mormon-owned coffee shops, not really talking about “Crazy Rich Asians,” theater kid drama, Michelle Yeoh dictating texts to her iPad, and Constance’s many, many ex-boyfriends.

Driver, drop me at Bergdorf Goodman! Come roam the halls of the famed department store with us as we discuss their fabulous in-house stylist Betty Halbreich and her memoir, “I’ll Drink To That.” (Most CBC title ever, btw). We trace her path from Chicago to Chanel and talk about hanging at the Copacabana, why Geoffrey Beene walked so Isaac Mizrahi could run, palazzo pants, teaching President Carter how to hold a gown, mediocre Japanese food, Pat Field, the patriarchy of the sleeve, and most importantly when to stop stuffing your closet with fox fur.

Darling, you absolutely must come to our NYC live show on 6/5. BUY HERE.
