It is our favorite kind of episode, where Michelle gets to welcome back to the show her longtime college friend who just happens to be a beloved actress Julia Stiles. And we're not sure if it was the studio they were in or the residual margarita effects from a karaoke birthday party, but these two open up new avenues into their friendship this hour by doing what they rarely do: Discussing Julia's career while she wears a very festive jacket. It begins with a mistaken address identity involving wrestling fans, continues into an unpacking of the scrutiny and pressures of being a young actress in Hollywood turns mom, and in general sheds light on a subject most in Hollywood hesitate to unpack. We also discover that singing the Requiem at Karaoke has its ups and downs. Be sure to watch Juiia in her upcoming series Recap alongside the King of the Hot Balds Corey Stoll.

Michelle has a light cold, but this doesn't this episode from KICKING OFF with one of our favorite co-hosts, comedian and New Jersey native Molly Mulshine! There is so much to unpack: Louis CK is headlining the Netflix Is A Joke festival, leading Molly to make an admission we really wish weren't the case. The ladies dip a toe into Ladies of London, specifically Missé's mole, which has it's own circulatory system and heartbeat, and wonder if it's not just a hair too performative. And would it even be a podcast if Summer House weren't mentioned? Ciara is busy parlaying her red carpet hostery into viral moments, while Molly & Mich agree that Amanda has NEVER been that girl and you've all somehow been duped. This and so much more, including the role of dogs in bars.

What a true honor to welcome Michelle's friend, former colleague and star of The Wendy Williams Show (and his viral Instagram @thenormanbaker!) Norman Baker to the show for an hour of daytime TV chat that asks the classic question: What happened to Daytime?! Outside of reminiscing about Norman's former boss and their idol Wendy Williams and Michelle's former co-host and their idol Whoopi Goldberg, these two also recap a wedding they attended in Mexico recently where a slow-motion video left Mich rocking herself back and forth. Reality TV is next, with Traitors, Housewives and Survivor 50 all up for debate, and the days of Maury Povich are reminisced!!
