Summary
I begin by talking about the IG Live show Ashley Spivey and I are doing on Sunday nights at 8 ET and a little more about Colton's candidness in his book. Then Emily joins me to talk about how she got her start (14:24), the change in how "tabloids" have covered stories over the years (19:57), magazine vs online (22:30), how subjects are breaking their own stories now (24:27), having "exclusives" (32:42), what she took from interviewing Colton for her podcast this week (43:15), and we end by talking about her love for Dawson's Creek (56:20).
