Plumping Profits?: The Kylie Jenner Lip Kit Scandal

Plumping Profits?: The Kylie Jenner Lip Kit Scandal

When Kylie Jenner launches her lip kits of matching lipsticks and lip liners, it appears the youngest Kardashian-Jenner is suddenly at the helm of a sky-rocketing makeup company — one that catches the interest of Forbes magazine. But what's really happening behind the scenes? Listen to never-before-heard recordings of Kris and Kylie from the journalist who found herself at the center of a scandal. Behind every infamous news story is a journalist trying to hold power to account. Join reporters Vanessa Grigoriadis and Gabriel Sherman as they take an in-depth look at the most explosive scandals of this century. From high-profile divorces to sex cults to the lies that started a war, they’ll guide you through the juiciest, most outrageous, celeb-filled stories of the last two decades, and give you a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to shine an unflattering light on the world’s most powerful people.  A Campside Media & Sony Music Entertainment production.

Introducing…Dinner’s on Me with Jesse Tyler Ferguson

Introducing…Dinner’s on Me with Jesse Tyler Ferguson

Jesse Tyler Ferguson is breaking bread with big-name friends—old and new—for a delicious meal and candid convos that can only happen over a glass of wine. He’s getting out of the studio and into his favorite restaurants with people like his on screen Modern Family sister Julie Bowen, Kristen Bell, Fred Armisen, Jesse Williams, and so many more. A celebrity-interview podcast, who’s doing that? No one. Which is why Jesse needed to. He and his guests will get vulnerable about everything from relationships and family history, to mental health and imposter syndrome. They’ll laugh about his attempted modeling career and being starstruck by Beyoncé. Look, will a chocolate soufflé get him to reveal all his secrets? Yeah. Yeah, it will. So, join Jesse… dinner’s on him.  Dinner’s on Me is a Sony Music Entertainment production.  Want to be the first to get new episodes of Dinner's on Me?

Introducing… Shrink The Box

Introducing… Shrink The Box

Ever wondered why Tony Soprano’s therapist stuck with him? Why Fleabag is obsessed with sex or why Walter White is always in his underpants? ‘Shrink the Box’ is where actor comedian Ben Bailey Smith and psychotherapist Sasha Bates put their favourite fictional characters such as Shiv from Succession, Omar from the Wire and Ross from Friends on the couch to analyse why their behaviour causes them so much drama. Sasha and Ben explore why these characters make certain decisions, what would happen if they made different ones and what we can learn from their mistakes. The perfect combination of psychology, self-help and the best TV since the birth of the box-set. A Somethin’ Else & Sony Music Entertainment production.

Introducing... Please Tell Me A Story

Introducing... Please Tell Me A Story

explicit

Omid tells his story to Abi. Abi tells Omid’s story to Sean, then Sean to Kai, Kai to Sikisa and Sikisa to Helen… each time with hilarious misrememberings, improvisations, stumbles, fumbles and laughs. Six comedians have a funny story to tell. Can they pass the story along the chain without completely twisting the tale? But this isn’t like the game you play at school where you only whisper short sentences. Each episode is a complete, beautifully written story, with each retelling getting funnier (and weirder!) as it passes on. And boy, does season one of Please Tell Me A Story feature an all star comedy cast: Omid Djalili, Abi Clarke, Seán Burke, Kai Samra, Sikisa, and Helen Bauer. Join them as the story gets weird…https://listen.sonymusic-podcasts.link/qxhC1Drl A Somethin’ Else & Sony Music Entertainment production.

Introducing Where There's A Will, There's A Wake

Introducing Where There's A Will, There's A Wake

If you could plan your perfect death, what would you do? If you were getting married you’d consult a wedding planner, who takes you through everything from what music you're walking into, what flowers to buy and who you’re going to invite. Now change the word “wedding” to “funeral”... Kathy Burke is the host of the brand new podcast, ‘Where There’s a Will, There’s a Wake’, where she chats to her famous friends about their fantasy funeral. How do they want to die? Where are they going next? And who gets their prized possessions? It will be a hilarious, irreverent, dark and sometimes moving podcast with guests from the world of comedy, TV film and celebrity. From Dawn French to Diane Morgan, Jamali Maddix to James Acaster, our guests will see their death brought to life as they plan their final day from dawn to dusk and into the afterlife.
