Summary

Guest host Jo Feldman welcomes “Yesteryear” writer and Diabolical Lies co-host Caro Claire Burke to dive into “Girls Next Door” star Kendra Wilkinson’s first memoir, “Sliding Into Home.” From her childhood days that rival scenes from “Thirteen” to becoming one of Hugh Hefner’s girlfriends, Kendra’s path to fame is a 2000s fever dream complete with cameos from Jack Nicholson and Criss Angel. Jo and Caro sift through the strange nights in the dilapidated Playboy Mansion, Hefner lore, and the culture of misogyny that defined a generation of reality TV.
