Logan Paul: Feudster | 20

Ever since he shot to internet fame in 2013, Logan Paul has been a magnet for controversy. He's turned the art of provocative content creation into a lucrative empire, using his polarizing personality as fuel. Whether it's sparking outrage with tone-deaf YouTube videos, overhyping his own boxing matches, or stirring the pot in the crypto world, the guy is always at the center of some drama. But what's the real cost of all this? In this episode, we dive into the strange history of this controversial YouTube pioneer. We'll try to understand why the world can't stop obsessing over Logan Paul—and why that obsession has even caught the attention of Congress!

Tom Sandoval and Ariana Madix | 19

When news broke that Vanderpump Rules co-stars Tom Sandoval and Ariana Madix had split amidst a cheating scandal, the internet went wild. The Bravo show is no stranger to messy drama and infidelity, but this particular betrayal got fans especially fired up. Why? Because it had everything an audience (and a programming exec) could ever desire: a polarizing leading man, a sympathetic girlfriend, cast members hurling outrageous insults at each other, restraining orders, and a wild, uncensored Andy Cohen-hosted reunion show - broadcast live! In this episode, we'll dissect what happens when a decade-long romantic relationship implodes in the public eye, igniting a cultural moment where we collectively grapple with heart-wrenching drama and the urgent need for popcorn refills.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Joan Rivers and Johnny Carson | 18

They were the king and queen of late-night TV until it all came crashing down. Johnny Carson reigned supreme as the host of "The Tonight Show," and by his side was Joan Rivers, his trusted protégé who became a star with her biting comedy routines. But in 1986, Joan did the unthinkable—she left to start her own rival late-night show. Her shocking exit provoked Johnny's wrath; he reacted by imposing a lifelong ban from his show, severing ties permanently, and refusing to utter another word to her. In this episode, we're diving into the ego trips, power struggles, and sexism that fueled one of Hollywood's most infamous feuds. But the story doesn't end there—Joan's legacy still packs a punch, inspiring shows like "Hacks" and "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel."If you or someone you know is struggling with mental health, the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline can be reached at 988.

Sarah Jessica Parker and Kim Cattrall | 17

Sarah Jessica Parker and Kim Cattrall portrayed best friends Carrie and Samantha on Sex and the City. But behind the scenes, they were anything but friendly. There were major pay discrepancies, bitter contract negotiations, plenty of online sniping, and a reboot that excluded Cattrall's character, enraging fans. Add all that friction up, and just like that, we've got an A-list feud. If you or someone you know is struggling with mental health, the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline can be reached at 988.
