Buckle up for a juicy, no-holds-barred chat that’s equal parts gossip, revelation, and “I can’t believe they just said that.”
Dana Bowling and Maureen Callahan pull back the velvet curtain on Hollywood and American royalty in a conversation that crackles with energy. They spill the tea on how The Nerve Podcast blew up by refusing to play nice with celebrity PR machines, the wild backlash (and secret thank-you DMs) they get for calling out A-listers, and why the inaugural Nerve Awards are about to become the most feared (and most-watched) night in pop culture.
Then things get deliciously dark. Maureen drops bombs from her bestseller Ask Not, exposing the hidden, often heartbreaking stories of the women orbiting the Kennedy dynasty, women whose lives were devoured by fame, power, and tragedy, yet who showed jaw-dropping resilience in the shadows. From George Clooney’s carefully curated saintly image to the real human collateral damage behind America’s most mythic families, nothing is off-limits.
If you’ve ever wondered what happens when two razor-sharp women decide to stop protecting famous men and start telling the truth—this is the conversation you’ll wish you’d eavesdropped on in real time. Raw, addictive, and impossible to pause.
