    The Kardashians (Part I): Holy (Bank)Rollers

    Who are the Kardashians behind the BBLs and the filtered social media posts? And why are they so damn famous? It's a question that's tortured a generation, and now it's time to answer it...
    Because the truth is that the Kardashian story is much longer and darker than we've been led to believe. 
    While Kris and Kim sell stories of a hard-working immigrant, scratch the surface on the real Kardashian origin story, and you find a strange tale of child prophets, evangelical extremism, and a world of controversy-linked preachers. 
    This is the story of the Kardashian family. The real story of the Kardashian family, and their decades long-ties to some of the most dangerous and subversive holy rollers in modern American history.

    The Dark Side of Katy Perry (Part 2): No Smoke Without Fire

    29/04/2026 | 51 mins.
    What do you think? Send me a text 📱
    In the final installment of my Katy Perry deep dive, I'm taking you into the heart of some of Katy's closest personal and professional relationships.
    We're going through Katy's Super-MAGA parents, and right through her questionable relationship with alleged rapist, Russell Brand. Then, it's on to Dr Luke and Katy's ties to the scandal-embroiled Archdiocese of Los Angeles and the ever-problematic Blue Origin. 
    Why did Katy Perry call herself a feminist when she was working for a company accused of sexual harassment and discrimination against women? 
    How does she call herself modern when she's helping to line the pockets of the California GOP (and by that relation, Donald Trump)? 
    We're talking all of this and more in the conclusion of The Dark Side of Katy Perry PT 2.

    The Dark Side of Katy Perry (Part 1): A Problematic Pattern

    22/04/2026 | 53 mins.
    What do you think? Send me a text 📱
    From Dark Horse to just dark, there is a pattern that has followed Katy Perry through the decades. 
    This week, I'll be leading you on Part 1 of my journey into one of the darkest pop princesses in the industry. Katy Perry has been a divisive figure, ever since she stepped onto the scene with "I Kissed a Girl," but this bubble gum diva's sparkly pop persona has been hiding a much darker reality. 
    I'm taking you through the timeline, from groping Justin Bieber, to alleged assaults against actors and models, and the death of a nun -- this is the history Katy Perry doesn't want you to see.
    And it's only the start...

    Your Pop Princess Is a Bad Person

    From Sabrina's "weird" statements at Coachella, to Taylor's flirtation with the right, it's time to admit -- your favorite pop princess is probably a bad person. 
    In this episode, I'm breaking it all down. Their bad behavior, the bad people they associate with, and the manipulative techniques they use to dysregulate your emotions and control you. 
    We're going into the psychology of what it takes to reach the top of the pop charts, and why supporting these "icons" makes us complicit. It's not a game anymore. It is really that deep, and you're in it.
