This week on Barely Famous, Kail sits down with Gypsy Rose Blanchard to discuss her new book, which chronicles her experiences growing up under her mother’s control, enduring Munchausen by proxy abuse, and finding her voice after years of silence. Gypsy gets into her complex family dynamics, her time in prison, and the challenges she faced along the way—from battling addiction to navigating relationships. She also shares profound insights on resilience, redemption, and charting a path forward.

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
