Tom Cruise’s on set tirade and what it says about workplace culture. Also, a listener asks us, how do we move past imposter syndrome or can a certain kind of imposter attitude actually help us work better? Each week Duana and Lainey deep dive i

Our ideas of who stars are and what they do are changing - Cardi B is Billboard's Woman of the Year, and her critics say she's undeserving - but do they really just want her to stay out of 'their' spaces? Then, Cazzie David is the latest celebr

Dolly Parton's Billboard feature is famous for her quote about Black Lives Matter - but it's actually all about the long game of building her status as a legend while she's still here. Plus we dig into the work of a surprise booming industry -
The Emmys will go on…but virtually. What’s the work involved in putting on television’s biggest night – and how much more work will this be for celebrities? Then, after tons of accusations that The Ellen Show is a toxic workplace, how do Ellen
