Gary Vider and the Con Man in the Family

Growing up with a grifter for a father had its challenges…and maybe even some perks. Just ask comedian Gary Vider, whose new true-crime podcast, “#1 Dad” (new episodes released every Monday on the I Heart Radio app) chronicles his quest to reconnect with his con artist father, Manny Vider, whose schemes and antics span over four decades. Now a father and a husband himself, Gary reflects on the lies his father involved him in, which tore his family apart, including posing as a Sports Illustrated Kids reporter to get into Rangers and Knicks games for free and the morning U.S. Marshals raided his family’s home looking for his dad, prompting Gary and Manny’s 24-year estrangement.

Mastermind: To Think Like a Killer

Dr. Ann Burgess is the subject of Director Abigail Fuller’s “Mastermind: To Think Like a Killer” (now streaming on Hulu), and both women join me to discuss their intriguing new true-crime docuseries. In the late 1960s, Dr. Burgess pioneered the use of profiling along with the FBI’s Division of Behavioral Sciences. Her research helped the bureau catch some of the most notorious serial killers and rapists in the country despite intense skepticism of the fledgling practice. The two discuss the evolution of victims’ rights, Dr. Burgess’s experience as a woman in a field made up entirely of men, and how her formal training and years of being a nurse informed this novel approach to criminology and interrogation.

A “Conversation” with Amanda de Cadenet

90s “It Girl” and “Wild Child” Amanda de Cadenet made a name for herself by being sentenced to juvenile detention, hosting a talk show at age 15, marrying a pop star before she was old enough to order a drink, and the youngest photographer ever to shoot a Vogue cover. She is the host of the podcast, “The Conversation with Amanda de Cadenet,” and the founder of Girlgaze, a networking platform dedicated to helping women and non-binary individuals. Amanda is a totally open book, and she discusses letting her curiosity be her guide, being raised by her race-car-driving father, becoming an influencer before there was even such a term, and stepping outside of her social-media algorithm.

The Life and Murder of Nicole Brown Simpson

Executive Producers Melissa Moore and Jesse Daniels join me to talk about their stunning new docuseries, “The Life and Murder of Nicole Brown Simpson” (now streaming on Lifetime). Since that fateful night in 1994, and in the aftermath of everything that came after, Melissa and Jesse aimed to give viewers a look at who Nicole Brown Simpson was apart from being the ex-wife of OJ Simpson and her role as a victim of the highly sensationalized “crime of the century.” Melissa and Jesse explore the ways victims were treated in cases of domestic violence in the 90s, why they believe the murder occurred on that night in particular, whether Nicole knew she was in grave danger, and what her legacy has become.

Paul discusses raising his own kids while coping with a traumatic past, growing up without rules, dating a coworker (spoiler alert: she became his wife), and telling a difficult story with integrity and humor.

Lopez” (new episodes Tuesdays at 8/7c on NBC and streaming on Peacock). As the show begins its second season, Mayan shares how she mines laughs from heavy subjects like infidelity, alcoholism, and race; how a TikTok video led her to network TV stardom, and how she blazed her own trail in the entertainment business through improv and sketch comedy.

"Where is Wendy Williams?" - Exploring the Complexities of Her Life and Struggles

In 2022, Mark Ford and Erica Hanson, the executive producers of the revealing new docuseries, “Where is Wendy Williams” (now available on Lifetime), set out to chronicle the return of one of daytime’s loudest and most popular voices. What they found was a lonely woman in crisis despite being placed under guardianship by New York State. Ford and Hanson discuss remaining nimble in their approach to documenting Wendy Williams’ struggle with alcoholism and her descent into dementia; being stonewalled by the system allegedly in place to protect her; earning the trust of the Williams family, and filmmaking as a form of health advocacy.

In her debut self-help memoir, Buy Yourself the F*cking Lilies, author Tara Schuster candidly recounts her escape from a brutal home life and her efforts to re-parent herself as an adult.

The Secrets of Polygamy

Despite being prohibited by the Mormon Church and deemed illegal, the Fundamentalist Latter Day Saints (FLDS) appear to openly engage in multiple underage marriages, often justifying these unions under the pretext of religious customs. Executive Producer Lori Golden-Stryer joins me for a look inside her new docuseries, “The Secrets of Polygamy” (now airing on A&E – new episodes Mondays at 10/9pm Central) and explains how visibility is the best weapon we have against what amounts to kidnapping, trafficking, and rape. Lori and her team of dedicated investigators shine a light on the isolation that permits the practice of polygamy and helps reunite the children left behind by parents who break free from the FLDS.

Bianca Del Rio Can’t Say No

For all my episodes I prepare copious notes and questions to try and get to know my guests, but from the moment the tape started rolling on my interview with drag queen and comedian Bianca Del Rio, I tossed them aside and let her do all the talking. Full of unbridled energy and raunchy jokes, Bianca told me all about getting ready for her 60-city “Dead Inside” comedy tour (tickets on sale at www.thebiancadelrio.com).

Hack My Home, Please

My guests today, Jessica Banks, Ati Williams, Mikel Welch, and Brooks Atwood are the hosts of the new Netflix home design series, “Hack My Home.” And since these brothers and sisters from other mothers and misters couldn’t all fit into one recording booth, we hacked them into pairs, recorded them two at a times, and pieced it together much like they do to the homes they renovate on their show. The chemistry they have together was evident in their lively discussion about innovation, brainstorming, sweat equity, and design trends.

Don Argott & Sheena Joyce Score with “Kelce”

In their riveting and touching new film, “KELCE” (now streaming on Prime Video), Don Argott, director, and Sheena Joyce, producer, walk the line between documentarians and fans of the Philadelphia Eagles. For two years, their cameras had extraordinary access to Jason Kelce, Philly’s favorite center, and his family as he considers retirement, strives toward a second Super Bowl win, and supports and raises his growing brood. In true Philadelphia form, Argott and Joyce are as scrappy as they are successful and show their audience there’s much more to Jason and his brother Travis Kelce (the tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs) than just playing professional football.

Anjelah Johnson-Reyes Goes Viral… Again

When Anjelah Johnson-Reyes first took the internet by storm, it was with the hilarious characters she created: Tammy, the nail lady, and Mad TV’s Bon Qui Qui. She’s now come full circle with her sixth comedy special, “Say I Won’t,” which she produced and financed, released on YouTube, and which has over two million views. Anjelah talks with me about the future of the comedy business, writing her book Who Do I Think I Am?, breaking into showbiz by becoming an Oakland Raiderette cheerleader and balancing her performing career and motherhood, especially when she joked she didn’t want kids (don’t worry, she’s changed her mind).

Nicholas Hatton Serves “Jury Duty”

One of my favorite shows of the year is, “Jury Duty,” produced by today’s guest, Nicholas Hatton. The premise of “Jury Duty” is that a fake trial is performed totally by actors, except for one person, Ronald Gladden, who believes he’s actually a juror and that the case is real. What was anxiety-inducing for Nicholas has yielded enormous returns, as “Jury Duty” is a huge hit and has garnered four Emmy nominations, including Outstanding Comedy Series and Outstanding Supporting Actor for James Marsden, who plays… James Marsden, Juror Number 14. On today’s episode, we pull back the curtain and take a deep dive into how Nicholas and his team of merry pranksters pulled off a televised magic trick that was all at once unique, funny, and completely engaging.

Landon Van Soest and the Jewel Thief

When Landon Van Soest first read about the criminal exploits of Gerald Blanchard, he knew that he had to make a documentary about this prolific career thief who stole everything from Radio Shack speakers to the Star of Sisi, one of the famed jewels Empress Elisabeth of Austria would wear in her hair. Landon eventually got his wish, and his true-crime documentary, “The Jewel Thief,” is now available to stream on Hulu.

Kevin Abrams and Ivan Bates Caught a Monster

The documentary “I’ve Got a Monster” is now available in select theaters and for rent/purchase on iTunes, Amazon Instant Video, and Vudu. The documentary, directed by Kevin Abrams, focuses on lawyer Ivan Bates’ tireless role as the defense attorney for the many victims of Baltimore City police officer, Wayne Jenkins’ corruption. Abrams and Bates join me to discuss the film, which shows in painful detail how Jenkins and members of the Baltimore City Police Department’s Gun Trace Task Force robbed and imprisoned innocent people for their own financial gain. The documentary meticulously details how in 2017, Jenkins and six other BCPD officers were indicted on racketeering charges, and in doing so, gives voice to those who fell victim to their despicable scheme.

We’re all used to sibling rivalries, but my guests, Kevin and Frankie Jonas, are an example of sibling camaraderie. These two-out-of-four Jonas brothers are the hosts of “Claim to Fame,” the hit reality competition show in which contestants vie for $100,000 by guessing the identities of each other’s celebrity relatives while trying to keep their own a secret. The second season airs new episodes every Monday at 8 pm on ABC.

Tony Harris is Telling the Truth

As “The Proof is Out There” begins its fourth season, on June 9th on the History Channel (new episodes every Friday night), host Tony Harris has a lot of natural skepticism. Not in the fact that his show is a hit, but whether the creatures, phenomena, and UFOs viewers submit on video for expert review are real or phony. To say Tony has a curious mind would be an understatement – in fact, he calls his curiosity his superpower. So, join us as we discuss not only the veracity of Sasquatch and little green men but also the future of journalism and accountability in the age of Artificial Intelligence.

Exposing the Duggar Family Secrets

In the eye-opening Prime Video documentary series, "Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets," Melissa Rivers engages in a thought-provoking conversation with Director Olivia Crist and Executive Producer Blye Faust. Unveiling the dark underbelly of the Institute for Basic Life Principles (ILBP), the series goes beyond the seemingly fruitful Duggar family (of TLC's "19 Kids and Counting") to expose a web of nefarious schemes. Through firsthand accounts from family members who have escaped the organization, viewers gain a rare glimpse into the cult's disturbing practices, including the suppression of women, enduring years of sexual abuse, and the alarming grooming of future generations of young men with a mission to blur the line between church and state.

Pieces of Jewel

If 90s grunge music screamed, “I’m not ok,” today’s guest, singer/songwriter Jewel, dulcetly asked, “What can we do to feel better?” Her 12-times platinum 1995 record “Pieces of You” is a touchstone of the decade, and paved the way for her long and meaningful career in music, acting, art and advocacy. Jewel still asks, “What can I do…” now with the #NotAloneChallenge which raises awareness and money for mental health resources through celebrity auction items – including a personalized song written by Jewel herself.
