Even the Rich

<p>Our lives can be crazy, but you can take a break from it all with Wondery’s new series, Even the Rich, where co-hosts Brooke Siffrinn and Aricia Skidmore-Williams pull back the curtain and chat about someone else’s craziness for a change. They tell stories about some of the greatest family dynasties in history, from the Murdochs to the Royals to the Carters (Jay-Z and Beyoncé, that is).

Time to dust off those gavels, Richies. The court of “Rich and Weekly” is now in session. First, we have the latest in the never ending, always-twisting legal saga between “It Ends with Us” stars, Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively. He slapped her with a $400 million suit, and is now dragging Blake’s hubby, Ryan Reynolds, into the fray too! While they’re all still battling it out, Prince Harry just scored a legal victory across the pond. And closing things out, “your favorite artist’s favorite artist,” Chappell Roan, sat down for a revealing interview where she talks about how she’s handling her wild rise to fame. All we can say is, “Good Luck, Babe!”See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Viola Davis’ childhood was far from ideal. Struggling with poverty and racism, the “Fences” star’s very humble beginnings were tough, but instilled a fire in her that propelled Viola to where she is today. And that is a pretty remarkable place. Not only is she regarded as one of her generation’s greatest actors (hello, EGOT!), she’s also become a role model for Black women everywhere. And for that, she deserves all the flowers.You can follow Brooke and Aricia on socials at @brookesiffrinn and @ariciaskidmorewilliamss.

Happy New Year, Richies! Given that we resolve to start living our best lives this time of year, we thought we’d focus on a star who’s always done that. As an actor in movies like “Coming Home” and “9 to 5,” Jane Fonda has put social justice issues front and center. But it’s her lifelong work as an activist that’s set her apart from Hollywood’s other A-listers...even though she’s taken a lot of heat - and spent some time in the slammer - for it. And now, even in her 80s, this iconoclast is still fighting the good fight and proving she’s still a rebel with a cause.You can follow Brooke and Aricia on socials at @brookesiffrinn and @ariciaskidmorewilliamss.

Happy New Year, Richies! We’re ringing in 2025 the same way we rang out 2024 - with celebrity lawsuits. This time, from Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni.

Pedro Pascal is a testament to persistence. When he was just a baby, his family fled Chile for America. As a young man, he decided he wanted to be a movie star, and began that journey.

In spite of those challenges and a devastating loss, “The Last of Us” and “Gladiator II” star has not only prevailed, but he's become one of Hollywood’s hottest leading men.You can follow Brooke and Aricia on socials at @brookesiffrinn and @ariciaskidmorewilliamsss.

We mostly remember Henry VIII’s six wives because of their fate at the hands of history’s most notorious ex. But there’s so much more to them than divorce, death and beheadings. Henry’s first wife, Catherine of Aragon, was a Spanish princess who grew up believing that being Queen of England was her destiny and God-given right. But getting–and staying–on the throne turns out to be a lot more complicated than she thought. When she isn’t able to have a healthy son and heir to the throne, Henry decides her time is up. But Catherine refuses to back down, even when someone new arrives and threatens her place on the throne.Listen to Even The Rich on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.

Hysterical investigates a mysterious illness that spreads among a group of high school girls in upstate New York. What is causing their sudden, often violent symptoms? Is there something in the water or inside the school? Or is it “all in their head?” The series examines the outbreak in LeRoy, NY, believed by some to be the most severe case of mass hysteria since the Salem Witch Trials. In his search for answers, Dan Taberski (9/12, Missing Richard Simmons, Running from Cops) explores other seemingly inexplicable events of the last few years – CIA officers being crippled with nausea and vertigo; cops OD'ing from exposure to fentanyl – and discovers they’re far more connected than we realize.From Wondery and Pineapple Street Studios, this 7-part series forces us to grapple with the mysteries of our own minds, and reckon with a contagion that we thought was long dead, but may be the defining disorder of our time.Follow Hysterical on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.

While we work on some new Even the Rich episodes, check out these episodes from our other show, Even the Royals. They’re all about the ultimate Hollywood Royalty: Grace Kelly and her daughter, Stephanie.Grace Kelly was a Hollywood icon in the 1950s. She worked with legends like Clark Gable and Alfred Hitchcock and only left when it was time to marry a real-life prince. She seemed to live the ultimately fairy tale life, but it came at a price – she fit herself into the box of perfection only to find herself trapped there. In part one of this two-part series Grace is a young girl in an unloving family who dreams of being a star. But Tinseltown demands the best, so if Grace wants leading roles – and an Oscar – she’ll have to turn herself into a flawless leading lady. No matter what it may cost her.Listen to Even The Rich on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.

During a two-parter that Ariana Grande did for Penn Badgley’s “Podcrushed” podcast, she opened up a huge can of worms. The “You” star asked Ari all about her new album, “Eternal Sunshine” and about playing Glinda in the upcoming “Wicked” movie. Good so far, right? Then the conversation shifted, and Ariana admitted that she had a fascination with notorious serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer, and that once she even told a young fan that he was her dream dinner guest. Now, Ari’s getting universally crushed for her tone-deaf comments, including from the mother of one of Dahmer’s victims. Safe to say this isn’t one of Ari’s finest moments.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Kanye West is making headlines...again. The controversial rapper - who now goes by Ye - allegedly got physical late Tuesday night at the infamous Chateau Marmont in Hollywood. According to police, Ye slugged an unidentified man in the face after he “pushed” and “grabbed” Ye’s wife, Bianca Censori. But a rep for the “Flashing Lights” rapper says it was more than just pushing and grabbing - it was more like full-on physical and sexual assault. This isn’t the first time Ye’s been accused of physical violence, but with those other incidents, he didn’t face any criminal charges. But will he this time?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Brandi Glanville’s coming for Andy Cohen. The former "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" cast member is accusing the Bravo head honcho of sexual harassment.

It’s (whistle tone) TIIIIIME…for Mariah Carey to lawyer up. On Wednesday, the Queen of Christmas was sued for copyright infringement over her holiday banger “All I Want for Christmas is You.” Musician Vince Vance says MC swiped the title and key parts of her hit from his 1989 song. And Richies, if this story sounds familiar, it is. He filed the exact same claim last year before dropping it a few months later. But now he’s back with a hotshot lawyer who took on Taylor Swift last year, and he's hoping for a big Christmas payday. So does Vince Vance have a shot? Or is this just a “sweet, sweet fantasy, baby…?"See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

When, years later, he discovers subsequent occupants of his family home were haunted by the ghost of a faceless woman, he’s curious.

Janet Jackson's infamous wardrobe malfunction might never be forgotten, but what about her legacy as a trail-blazing feminist? Janet cut a path for female pop performers controlling their own narrative.

Culture writer Clover Hope joins Brooke and Aricia to set the record straight. Clover shares what it was like to meet Janet at a Manhattan sushi bar, her love for Poetic Justice, and her take on the aftermath of Janet’s Super Bowl halftime show. Listen ad free with Wondery+.

On February 1st, 2004, Janet Jackson’s right breast was exposed to a live audience of over 144 million at the Super Bowl — for 9/16ths of a second. What should have been a fleeting moment of professional embarrassment became a national scandal. It was a story that had everything: a titillating costume change gone wrong, a powerful black woman who refused to grovel, and a squeaky-clean, young white upstart who was only too happy to align himself with power. Racism, sexism and misogyny collided to turn one of the greatest entertainers in the world into nothing more than a political scapegoat. In the first episode of our special two-part series, we'll tell you the story of how one woman found a way to achieve the American dream — then had it all snatched away in an instant.Listen ad free with Wondery+.

Patty Hearst would eventually put the SLA in her rearview mirror; she’d go on to have two kids and act in a string of John Waters films. But through the years, the debate has continued: was Patty really brainwashed, or did she voluntarily join the SLA? To help answer this question, Brooke and Aricia are joined by author and social scientist Alexandra Stein. Alexandra studies the psychological tactics cult leaders use to brainwash their subjects. She also has first hand experience with cults, having survived a decade in one. Alexandra will explain why it’s so hard to leave a cult and what can help people break free.To learn more about her story, check out Alexandra’s memoir: http://www.alexandrastein.com/inside-out-a-memoir-of-entering-and-breaking-out-of-a-minneapolis-political-cult.htmlAnd her latest book, Terror, Love and Brainwashing:https://www.routledge.com/Terror--Love-and-Brain-washing-Attachment-in-Cults-and-Totalitarian/Stein/p/book/9780367467715?utm_source=individuals&utm_medium=shared_link&utm_campaign=B012494_dm1_1au_1aj_d741Listen ad free with Wondery+.
