S18E23: Little Miss Can't Be Wrong | RHOC's Kelly Dodd
We've covered our fair share of Real Housewives on this show, but we're pretty sure you'll agree that even at their trashiest, none can hold a candle to the Real Housewives of Orange County's Kelly Dodd. From rampant allegations of domestic violence to taking her feuds - real and imagined - onto social media, Kelly's outrageous behavior was even too much for Bravo.Want early, ad-free episodes, bonus divorces, limited series, Zoom hangouts, and more?

S18E22: Sailing | Gavin MacLeod
In honor of Father's Day, Stacie has the very human story of actor Gavin MacLeod, best known as Captain Stubing on TV's The Love Boat. His story - including two arguably trashy divorces - is about as relatable as it gets, and without giving away the ending, the man only gets halos.

S18E19: Tiny Dancer | Tony Danza
Since the mid-80s, Americans have puzzled over the enduring question: Who's The Boss? It turns out that the star of that much loved television show, Tony Danza, is a decidedly untrashy fellow, even with three divorces under his belt. Stacie has all the details, which amount to a heaping helping of wholesome Gen X nostalgia.Want early, ad-free episodes, bonus divorces, limited series, Zoom hangouts, and more?

S18E18: Fly Like An Eagle | Terrence Howard
We've covered a lot of eccentric personalities on this show, we've covered a lot of people with anger management problems, and we've covered plenty of out of control egos. Somehow, Empire star Terrence Howard has transmuted all of those traits into a basically off-the-charts life story. Seriously, all our scales for trashiness are having to be recalibrated after this one. Alicia has the deets.Content Warning: This episode contains graphic descriptions of domestic violence.Want early, ad-free episodes, bonus divorces, limited series, Zoom hangouts, and more?

S18E17: Introducing Trashy Royals | The Affair of the Diamond Necklace
This week, we want to share a little something we've been cooking up here at Hemlock Creatives! Over the course of creating Trashy Divorces, we've come to realize that trashbaggery is a permanent part of the human experience, and few figures in our history has been ostentatiously trashy as any given period's elites. Enter: Trashy Royals, a new podcast dropping every Thursday that explores the enduring truth of all cultures: our betters have always been among our worst.Please enjoy this Trashy Royals episode, The Affair of the Diamond Necklace, and listen to Trashy Royals wherever you get your podcasts!05. The Affair of the Diamond NecklaceUnsurprisingly, the French Revolution didn’t happen particularly spontaneously. Years of financial mismanagement, poor crops, massive unemployment, and a swelling population in Paris itself all contributed to a growing dissatisfaction with King Louis XVI and the monarchy in general. The King’s cause wasn’t helped at all by a lingering suspicion that his wife, Queen Marie Antoinette, was a profligate spender and an Austrian spy, but Marie Antoinette’s reputation took a calamitous hit in 1785, when an ambitious con artist named Jeanne de la Motte hatched a plan to acquire one of the most expensive jewelry pieces ever crafted.Playing on the vanity and avarice of one of her lovers, Cardinal Louis de Rohan, Jeanne and her crew succeeded in boosting a piece worth $2 million – and forever ended any goodwill the French public had toward their Queen.

S18E16: Where The Colors Don't Go | Alexis Bledel
It turns out that not all divorces are trashy, and for Gilmore Girls actress Alexis Bledel (Rory Gilmore) her recent split from ex-husband Vincent Kartheiser was handled as discretely as all the other parts of their relationship. But sometimes on a long holiday weekend, you just have to dive into your Gilmore Girls fandom, which we do here with great abandon.Want early, ad-free episodes, bonus divorces, limited series, Zoom hangouts, and more?

S18E15: Pennies From Heaven | Kaley Cuoco
We often talk about a "starter marriage," believing that maybe the second go-round will go better, but for actress Kaley Cuoco, that's not how it happened. The Big Bang Theory star walked down the aisle - and then into divorce court - twice, and while she seems to have sworn off marriage as a result, that doesn't mean she hasn't found true love.Want early, ad-free episodes, bonus divorces, limited series, Zoom hangouts, and more?

S18E14: I'm Still Standing | Tracy Morgan
It's probably not quite right to describe comedian and actor Tracy Morgan as "lucky," but it's also sort of a miracle that he's survived the things he's survived. Alicia has his story, from tragic losses early in life to his death-defying comebacks - as well as a couple of a trashy divorces.Want early, ad-free episodes, bonus divorces, limited series, Zoom hangouts, and more?
