Talk To Me Taylor

"Don’t tell me what I can and can’t say." Veteran journalist Taylor Ferber wrote this in her unprecedented Playboy feature, challenging the idea that brains and beauty are mutually exclusive, as the only woman who both posed and was a featured writer. After years as Hollywood"s "Celebrity Whisperer" who interviewed and humanized the biggest A-listers, her irreverent show empowers viewers to think freely outside rules in politics, media, and pop culture, getting big guests like Blake Shelton, Tucker

No virtue signaling detected here. This striking new social commentary is the real deal. Entering the chat is BAFTA Winner Laya DeLeon Hayes, star of the SXSW-selected horror film "The Angry Black Girl and Her Monster." A chilling "Get Out"-like commentary on urban culture and black-on-black violence, the film depicts the modern black experience inspired by Mary Shelley’s original “Frankenstein." Laya talks about how it feels taking on the iconic Frankenstein role as a

You get a burnt book! YOU get a burnt book! Everybody's leaving with a burnt book!!! This week, I'm dissecting the fact vs fiction of Ronnie D’s book burning antics in Florida and the other side of that coin in the Battle of the S̶e̶x̶e̶s̶ Censorship war. Dragging Huck Finn into this is one thing. But Oompa Loompas?! The nerve. Taking a peek into queer theory and critical race theory -- both gloriously convoluted -- we'll peel back how both political sides of the culture war indulge in

Women are now the bad guys. Gay and drag icons are evil. Inclusion is censorship. And basic scientific facts are hate speech. Take this wild journey with me that starts back with '80s hair bands and a gay tennis legend, to a peculiar 2015 article on the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, to where we are now in the diversity clusterf*ck no one asked for. Don't try too hard to make any of it make sense, guys. You'll break your brain. But mark my words: "representation" in the

We're not here for a long time. We're here for a good time... a good time for unreasonable woke warriors to have a seat. Josh Duhamel's raunchy new buddy comedy "Buddy Games: Spring Awakening" is packed with social commentary, hitting EVERY hot-button, taboo topic -- from a dog's pronouns to racism, sexism, all the isms -- encouraging the masses to lighten up. The director/star and his co-stars Kevin Dillon (Entourage) and Dan Bakkedahl (VEEP) talk to me over a beer about:

Perpetually disgruntled person on social media, actress Jameela Jamil, called out Hollywood for being big, fat hypocrites at this year's Met Gala. For once, the lady has a point. And I let her know it. In addition to my online interaction with her regarding the issue and my stance (eerily similar to the one I had with Chrissy Teigen a few years back), I detail how she's spot on in their true hypocrisy when it comes to selective cancelling. However, her reasoning of WHY in this case

While I may be wondering why a biological male who doesn't have tits yet is enlisted by Nike to sell us women sports bras, I'd still argue we have bigger fish to fry. In the continuous news cycle from Hades itself (don't tell The Daily Wire I said that!!!), I'm here to talk about how objects that used to be associated with fun and joy -- like beer and teddy bears -- are now used as political tools to trigger chaos and all out war.

Well, four years ago, I was featured right next to Stormy in the opening Playbill of Playboy's Anniversary Issue dedicated to, of all things, freedom. I had a feature about women being free to break out of the "brains or beauty" boxes. She had a feature on the heels of speaking out about her affair with Trump about being free to

In great timing, we have a certified dating coach, Lilli Bewley (@lillybewley), in the house to turn the tables, taking a look at the hot mess of both women AND MEN, sexuality skewed on both sides of the aisle, and the real Big Lie: that society's actually taught our women how to be "boss babes." --- Support this

This impromptu episode -- difficult, but necessary (I know, even on a Friday) -- was fueled by the news of a 14-year-old student who died by suicide after being bullied and beaten in a video caught on camera. Given my background in mainstream media, I try to make sense of our sick, violent culture and the way almost every instance (from this to Tyre Nichols and George Floyd, and Uvalde to Monterey Park) is politicized, distorted, or both, and is hurting us as a society even more. --- Support this
