Clyde Confidential

Welcome Jeff Klein!

Hotelier Jeff Klein — the man behind San Vicente Bungalows, Sunset Tower, and the West Village — pulls back the curtain on building the most coveted membership clubs in LA and New York. He talks starting his career as a bellman before working his way up through housekeeping, the (very unconventional) way he hired his longtime right hand Gabé, and why loyalty to staff like Gabé and Dimitr...

Welcome Loni!

From assistant to producer — Loni Rodgers spills on nearly a decade of climbing the industry ladder, and the discretion it took to do it quietly. She opens up about leaving her role with a notoriously "old Hollywood" boss right as the tabloids came calling (and why she never said a word), plus her journey through Amazon Studios, working under Angela Bassett's production banner, and now producing her own slate of...

Welcome Jae Rae!

This week on Clyde Confidential, Meghan sits down with her spiritual advisor, healer, and now-client Jay Rae — recorded (fittingly) on the eve of a full moon. Jay Rae isn't just a psychic; she's been Meghan's coach through business decisions, friendship drama, and every spiral in between. They dig into the real difference between new moons and full moons, why "timing is everything" isn't just a platitude, and...

Welcome Frankie!

Meghan sits down with one of her oldest and dearest friends, Frankie Carattini — Director of Events and Client Relations at People's and the man the New Yorker crowned "New York's pickiest doorman." What started as a coat-check gig while Frankie worked full-time in PR turned into the most powerful door in New York nightlife, and this episode has the full ride: getting scouted by legendary Acme doorman Patrick...

Welcome Clyde Staffing!

This week on Clyde Confidential, Meghan flips the mic around and introduces the team behind the scenes — the people you've probably been emailing without ever putting a face to the name. For the first time in her life, she's running a team instead of being the assistant, and she gets candid about the learning curve that comes with it.

She sits down with Reuben, the intern who transformed Clyde's social...

Welcome Jessica Diehl!

Meghan sits down with brand consultant and creative director Jessica Diehl for a long-overdue catch-up — the two haven't seen each other since a chaotic trip to Puebla right before the world shut down in 2020. What follows is one of those conversations that goes everywhere and stays interesting the whole time.

Jessica's career is the stuff of fashion folklore: she bartended her way into a Marie Claire i...

Welcome Madelaine!

Madelaine Petsch has been one of Hollywood's most recognizable faces for nearly a decade — but behind every chaotic on-set day and every impulsive "let's just drive to San Francisco" decision, there's been one person keeping it all together: her assistant, Amelia Parker. This week, Meghan sits down with both of them to celebrate two years of one of the best assistant-boss relationships in the business &mdas...

Welcome Lily Rabe!

Meghan sits down with her dear friend and one of the most accomplished actresses working today — Lily Rabe. Fresh off a move back to New York City, Lily opens up about what it feels like to come home, raising kids in a city that puts them ahead of you instead of in the backseat, and why Lincoln Center two nights in a row is basically a reset button. The two dig into the realities of building a career and a ...

Welcome Tinx!

Tinx — internet big sister, TikTok OG, radio host, and author — sits down with Meghan alongside her right-hand woman Lauren for a candid, hilarious look at one of the most talked-about duos in the influencer space. What started as a "we'll open packages and keep it casual" job listing has turned into a five-year blur of canceled flights, Gothic Louisiana Airbnbs, couture corset emergencies, and building an...

Welcome Justin Jesso!

This week, Meghan's couch is at full capacity — she's joined by her friend and talented singer-songwriter Justin Jesso, plus his two right-hand people: Julie Dawson, his head of social, and Dylan Owen, his chief of staff. Justin is best known for co-writing and singing "Stargazing" with Kygo, a gig that's taken him from a Monday writing session to Madison Square Garden and Coachella in the span of eight ...

Welcome Ty Stiklorius! 

This week, Meghan sits down with her mentor and one of the most powerful women in the music industry — Ty Stiklorius. As a producer, activist, mom, and longtime manager, Ty has spent 20+ years navigating the music business on her own terms. In this one, they get into all of it: the dinner party that changed both their lives, why success can be the best hiding place for unprocessed trauma, the AI r...

Welcome A-Frame! Meet Alexandra Feldman, Noelle Keshishian, and Samantha Tyler — the trio behind A-Frame Agency, one of Hollywood's premier hair, makeup, and nail talent agencies. In this episode, Meghan sits down with all three founders to hear the wild origin story of how they went from agents to launching their own company with just 24 hours notice, two of them secretly pregnant, and the entire world in the middle of a glo...

Welcome Jake Fleischman! Meghan sits down with her good friend Jake, talent manager at Untitled Entertainment, for a conversation that's equal parts career masterclass and chaos. From bluffing his way into UTA's mailroom to booking his boss on a no-Wi-Fi flight so he could secretly sign his first client, Jake doesn't exactly follow the rules — and it's working. They get into the hustle behind breaking into Hollywood, the powe...

Welcome Alex Saks! This week, Meghan sits down with powerhouse film producer Alex Saks and her assistant of three years, Carly Swift — a pairing born from a movie set, a mutual friend, and a little bit of fate.

Alex opens up about the ye...

Emilio Vitolo runs one of New York's most coveted tables entirely on his own terms — and he'll tell you exactly why. This week he's talking building a speakeasy from a white box, keeping the restaurant alive during the pandemic with just him and his dad, and why "doubt me" is basically his love language. He is the one taking your order, pouring your drink, and telling you exactly how it is. This week he's breaking down what i...

Welcome Tommy Dorfman! Host Meghan Grimm sits down with actress, filmmaker, and author Tommy Dorfman — and Tommy's former assistant Natalie Gerber, who she's been trying to rehire ever since. Together, they talk about what makes a great working relationship, why assistant work is way harder than people think, playing the long game in Hollywood, and the very real chaos of coming home from a ten-day trip abroad to discover 38 p...
