Episode 23: Buckle up, everyone! The Non-Billable Hour crew is coming in hot for 2025 by covering the biggest news story of the year so far (no, not the second inauguration of Donald Trump). In a special TWO-PARTER, we are covering the best celebrity defamation lawsuit since Depp v. Heard, likely to be shortly eclipsed by Drake v. Lamar et al. (cue smiling Kendrick Lamar). After a bit of a break, Beth takes us through Blake Lively’s allegations of sexual harassment and breach of contract against Justin Baldoni and his troop of misfit toys on the set and during the promotional tour of the movie adaptation of It Ends With Us, the adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s bestselling novel. You’ll learn a second definition for astroturfing, how much it costs to take down an A-list celebrity (shockingly affordable!), and why you should live your life like everything you write will be read in a deposition (or screenshot and put into a complaint). Beth will try not to get too high on her soapbox as she discusses non-consensual improvised kissing. Yet another #metoo story for all!

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
