Summary
Lauren’s back from a 24-hour flu, a hangover, and a full-blown moving meltdown — and somehow lived to tell the tale. Meanwhile, Chanler holds down the fort (and books an exclusive with their celebrity sister, Courtney Grow). Before Chan interviews Courtney, the girls dive in to a couple of headlining stories. From Hugh Jackman’s ex plotting a bombshell tell-all, to David Harbour’s cringe Esquire interview, to Prince Andrew finally being stripped of his titles — the girls cover every messy man making headlines this week.
They also get into Meghan Markle’s latest Page Six rumor, the Vanderpump Rules reboot that nobody asked for, and the rise and fall of The Row’s “cool girl” mystique — before Courtney joins for a deep dive on Botox, luxury retail horror stories, and why she’s done being treated like gum on someone’s shoe.
(00:00:00) — Lauren’s weekend from hell: hungover move, the flu, and Kagen’s “water safety training.”
(00:08:27) — Deborra-Lee Furness’ revenge memoir: Hugh Jackman fallout + “shop that tell-all, baby.”

(00:15:33) — Millie Bobby Brown’s harassment claim against David Harbour + Netflix’s silence.
(00:34:57) — Prince Andrew stripped of royal titles: why the palace only acts when it’s self-preservation.
(00:40:10) — Vanderpump Rules reboot: why lightning never strikes twice.
(00:46:19) — Courtney Grow joins: Botox, Sculptra, and exosome intel.
(00:54:00) — The Row drama: influencer backlash, jelly shoe horror stories, and sample-sale delusion.
(01:08:00) — Luxury retail icks: “oh honey, we don’t messenger to Brooklyn.”
(01:10:00) — Marriage after four kids: sex, exhaustion, and staying connected.
