Description

"Don’t tell me what I can and can’t say." Veteran journalist Taylor Ferber wrote this in her unprecedented Playboy feature, challenging the idea that brains and beauty are mutually exclusive, as the only woman who both posed and was a featured writer. After years as Hollywood's "Celebrity Whisperer" who interviewed and humanized the biggest A-listers, her irreverent show empowers viewers to think freely outside rules in politics, media, and pop culture, getting big guests like Blake Shelton, Tucker Carlson, Dave Portnoy, to say what they really think.

Comedy legend Wanda Sykes joins me alongside director Tamika Miller to talk about her first major dramatic turn in UNDERCARD—and why real grit still matters in the age of instant fame. We get into breaking out of boxes (sometimes of our own mind...), the discipline nobody wants to talk about, and what it actually takes to build something with longevity and legend status. If you think viral equals valuable… this conversation might humble you just a lil. Welcome to Talk To Me Taylor. Follow me:IG: @talktometaylorX: @TaylorFerberTikTok: @TalkToMeTaylor
There’s a quiet arms race happening... and it’s not about money. Or ideology. Or clicks. Tonight we clock the desperation and posturing from the true flex. Let the games begin.Follow me:IG: @talktometaylorX: @TaylorFerberTikTok: @TalkToMeTaylor
AI is accelerating, the media circus is circling, and humanity is… not exactly passing the vibe check. Tonight I break down the viral AI essay everyone’s panicking over, the grift economy that’s exhausting us all, and why the real battle isn’t humans vs. robots. It’s humans vs. themselves.

Tonight I’m back from algorithmic hell leave and NyQuil purgatory with a guest who does not do platitudes. TEDx speaker, veteran, and founder of InFLOWential, Stacy Raske, joins me to dissect the collapse of influencer culture, toxic positivity, laziness, AND hustle, self-help delusion, quiet power in a doing-the-most world, and why most “authentic” branding is just good marketing. Also a bit of her living-proof personal story and how she 5x’d her business by eliminating funnels and try-hard sales energy altogether. This is not manifestation mumbo jumbo. It’s just popping the matrix bubble. Cancel us later.Follow me: IG: @talktometaylorX: @TaylorFerberTikTok:  @TalkToMeTaylor 
Well, folks. She done did it again! After her viral Grammys red carpet moment last night, Joy Villa joins me in the first interview to talk about what REALLY happened behind the scenes... and when you break Hollywood’s unwritten rules. We get into performative activism, silent blacklists, fake rebellion, and why the industry celebrates “expression” until it makes them uncomfortable. This isn’t about the dress. It’s about the cost of stepping out of line.Follow me:IG: @talktometaylorX: @TaylorFerberTikTok: @TalkToMeTaylor
Tonight I present: zero patience for performative nonsense. First, giving rapid-style Hot Take Taylors on: Sydney's SYRN vs Kim's SKIMS, ICE, Nicki Trump, the weird Erik Kirk fetish, and feminism gone retarded. Then I'm joined by the iconic Thom Brodeur, the CEO and President of MISS USA, for a refreshingly sane conversation about rejecting labels, refusing to tokenize people, and feminism for people whose brains aren't fried. Your ears can thank us for the most sensible thinking you'll hear today.Follow me:IG: @talktometaylorX: @TaylorFerberTikTok: @TalkToMeTaylor
Tonight I’m joined by Nate Jones, the CEO of Xlear Inc., who stared down the FTC in a lawsuit and didn’t blink. We talk US exiting the WHO, pandemic psy-ops, why doctors don’t understand nutrition, the "body positivity" scam, RFK Jr's food pyramid, America’s biggest hidden illness, and why basic hygiene threatens billion-dollar industries. If you were ever told “trust the science” while your instincts screamed otherwise, this episode is for you.Follow me:IG: @talktometaylorX: @TaylorFerberTikTok: @TalkToMeTaylor

Your Outrage Is Boring

Everyone’s mad, no one’s consistent, and looks like we’re still all experts in other people’s lives. Tonight I’m talking sex, power, shame, internet outrage, fake feminism, and why control keeps masquerading as compassion. From Sydney Sweeney to Pam Anderson to OnlyFans discourse, this episode is about who actually gets to decide what’s what, and why the internet loses its mind when women stop asking permission. If you’re here to be mad, you’ll still have a great time. 😘Follow me:IG: @talktometaylorX: @TaylorFerberTikTok: @TalkToMeTaylor

Tonight I’m joined by THE American Mermaid (trademarked, bitch)—artist, performer, trader, blockchain babe, and fellow member of the “somehow made history with Playboy” club. We talk money, femininity, fantasy, power, and why people still short-circuit when a woman refuses to be easily categorized.Follow me:IG: @talktometaylorX: @TaylorFerberTikTok: @TalkToMeTaylor Follow Emily: IG: theamericanmermaid_
New year, same crisis. It’s the first show of 2026 and instead of resolutions, we’re talking time—how it messes with your head, why everything feels like a rerun, and what it actually means to break out of the matrix. From cultural cycles and Stranger Things finales to aging, ambition, and the panic no one admits they’re having, this episode is a late-night, inverted New Year's resolution you maybe didn't ask for. If the clock feels louder lately, you’re not alone. And no, I don’t have the answers. But I do have the questions. Follow me:IG: @talktometaylorX: @TaylorFerberTikTok: @TalkToMeTaylor
Why do men give away d*ck pics like they're Oprah giving away cars, women call everything a trauma response, and everyone swear they’re “healed” while dating like feral raccoons? Psychotherapist Jenn Pinkerton (@jennbpinkerton) joins me to unpack the psychology behind confused gender dynamics and the emotional laziness hiding behind modern dating norms. This ep connects trad values, overboard feminism, emotional intelligence, and reality—because something clearly broke, and now everyone’s unmarried and pretending they’re fine. Consider this an intervention disguised as a podcast. You're welcome for your present getting psychoanalyzed this year!Follow me:IG: @talktometaylorX: @TaylorFerberTikTok: @TalkToMeTaylor
Christmas most definitely came early straight out of the chimney that is this livestream. Tonight I sit down with Deryl VanNostrand: Gen Z, hyper-self-aware, and completely done with the script we were handed about work, dating, sex, suppression, and success. We talk celibacy, hookup culture, porn, power dynamics, love, fear, and what it REALLY means to break out of the matrix. This episode is THE most honest, unfiltered, and dare I say a lil dangerous. For the bold ones, the kind of conversation you’re not supposed to have but everyone’s thinking about. Follow me:IG: @talktometaylorX: @TaylorFerberTikTok: @TalkToMeTaylor
I went to Miami, sat on Winston Churchill’s grandson’s lap (long story), came back and have gone mostly dark. I'm feeling it in my bones: the old structures are crumbling. Politics, media, identity, the noise—it’s all collapsing at once, and pretending everything’s “fine” is the real delusion. This episode is messy, prophetic, dark, hopeful, and very much about breaking out of the cages we’ve been shoved into. If you feel like something big is coming and you don’t know whether to panic or dance, congrats, you’re paying attention.Follow me:IG: @talktometaylorX: @TaylorFerberTikTok: @TalkToMeTaylor
Tonight I sit down with Jeff Gulko: the PR mastermind who Forrest-Gumped his way through the White House, CIA, and A-list celebrity publicity, all while collecting more classified stories than I have pink dresses. Tonight he breaks down the cutthroat politics of politics, the death of unbiased media, distrust in the government, Hollywood hypocrisy, and why America is one giant PR crisis. We get into death threats, thought-crime, and behold… the real story behind Bill Clinton’s infamous Monica Lewinsky tie. Jeff's lived nine lives, can't go to Russia, and somehow made it out with receipts, right here on Talk To Me Taylor.Follow me:IG: @talktometaylorX: @TaylorFerberTikTok: @TalkToMeTaylor
Dr. Ann Tsung went from NASA flight surgeon to full-on feminine awakening, blowing expectations about gender roles, “success,” and how we’re supposed to spend our time right out into space. She’s now breaking us out of the 9-to-5 Matrix with her platform, Productivity MD, and my brain may never recover. If you’re still grinding like the system has you chained to a cubicle of your own mind, consider this your jailbreak notice. Unclench your jaw, pour a drink, and come hear why breaking out of hustle culture and gender expectations might be the biggest rebellion of all.Ann’s Five Stages of Time Freedom℠:        Time Prisoner — “I don’t have time.” Life is reactive to other peoples demands.        Time Manager — “I’m so busy but I’m so exhausted.” It is all done by him or herself. Lack of chronotype alignment or non-negotiables set.        Time Creator — “I can make the time.” Master of leverage (systems, processes, people), but overfills life with pressure to optimize time.        Time Liberator — “Does this multiple or drain my energy?” Ruthless filtering based on anchors (family, health, purpose). It’s a no unless it’s a hell yes. Ex. Steve Jobs and Warren Buffet.        Time Transcender — “All there is is this moment now.” Flow state and timeless presence is the true time freedom.This framework helps leaders diagnose where they are, and transcend toward true freedom: not just more time, but fully lived time. They can shift in and out of different stages depending on their state.Follow me:IG: @talktometaylorX: @TaylorFerberTikTok: @TalkToMeTaylor
Tonight I sat down with Pablo Escobar’s great-nephew, Mitch. And eight minutes in, my entire studio lost power. Make of that what you will.We get into his upbringing, masculinity today, young men being lost in the sauce, immigration, generational family trauma, revenge culture, and how he survived the fallout and chose a completely different path.It’s raw, real, human, and yes… the spirits clearly had notes.Follow me:IG: @talktometaylorX: @TaylorFerberTikTok: @TalkToMeTaylor
It’s the night before Thanksgiving and somehow I ended up on a call with a Daily Wire recruiter, meeting one of the internet’s first viral stars, and spiraling into a full holiday fever dream sponsored by Ken Burns’s new American Revolution doc. Pour one out with me for this party of the century as I unpack the clash of ideas, influencers who are fake, algorithms that are tyrants, and why I’m still thankful. Before we break out into a full-blown civil war, here’s to America—still the wildest miracle on Earth. (Second only to immaculate conception, depending on who you ask.)Follow me:IG: @talktometaylorX: @TaylorFerberTikTok: @TalkToMeTaylor
Big Time Rush superstar James Maslow took some time during his international tour to sit down with me and talk truth. On Israel. On propaganda. On men. On reality. He's a celebrity who actually thinks for himself—an endangered species—and proves why being yourself online is now an act of rebellion.Watch the full conversation and prepare to have your brain recalibrated.Follow me:IG: @talktometaylorX: @TaylorFerberTikTok: @TalkToMeTaylor
#nickfuentes #andrewtate #whatever Tonight, BlackRant joins me to unpack whether the manosphere is one meltdown away from an endangered species display at the Smithsonian. From Nick Fuentes’ troll empire to Andrew Tate’s cartoon masculinity, all contrasted with the Charlie Kirk approach (who is confirmed to be rolling in his grave, if you were wondering). We get into why so many men are unraveled, how economics and identity collapse are feeding the meltdown, and why we should really just solve this like grown ups by having Fuentes and Shapiro get in a playground fist fight once and for all.FOLLOW ME:IG: @talktometaylorX: @TaylorFerberTikTok: @TalkToMeTaylor
