This episode is a whole vibe. You’re about to hear me and the incredible Aisha Tyler sip margaritas, get real about life, and dive into everything from Hollywood survival to starting over. You’ll laugh, you may nod your head a lot, and you may even get emotional.
Julian McMahon was a regular on Really Famous. And I'm grateful for our talks. Julian died earlier this week.
