A flaming dumpster to represent our coverage of celebrity news.

S26E13: Dumpster Dive | Alec and Hilaria Baldwin, Billy and Chynna Phillips, Jessica Simpson, Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni, and Men Need Friends


In a world gone mad, celebrities continue to make terrible decisions! This week we’re (mostly) leaning into the trashy rather than the divorces for a Dumpster Dive!

  • Up first, Alicia has a Baldwin Corner, where we discuss Alec and Hilaria’s new reality show, and the strong doses of something that appear to be driving Billy Baldwin and Chynna Phillips back into each other’s arms.
  • Jessica Simpson is single again.
  • Stacie gets into the Blake Lively/Justin Baldoni lawsuit war and is eager for some under-oath testimony, because both of these things cannot be true.
  • And Alicia has an article that upends a lot of the usual takes about how men and women experience relationships and breakups.
