Author Mallory O’Meara (Reading Smut) joins Chelsea to break down silent film legend Louise Brooks’ scorched-earth essay collection “Lulu in Hollywood.” Louise floods the book with tea from the Golden Age of Hollywood, dragging Humphrey Bogart and torching the studio system that abandoned her. Chelsea and Mallory also spill bonus tea, calling out Charlie Chaplin. Plus, they explore why Louise’s era wasn’t so golden, and why her rage still hits hard in 2025.

Viral Article Book Club: Don’t Have Kids? (with Jameela Jamil)
Chelsea is joined by Jameela Jamil (Wrong Turns podcast) to dig into one of the most talked-about essays on the internet: “Don’t Have Children,” by Kate Manne. They debate whether it’s a feminist call to arms or too narrow to be a real rallying cry. From the failures of U.S. healthcare to the politics of reproductive labor, they take on burnout, birth rates, and the power in choosing not to reproduce.
