The Reheat

This week on The Reheat, we’re joined by Canadian TV icon Rick Campanelli to talk about his new memoir, Tempted, and the wild ride of his career — from the glory days of MuchMusic to the parts of his life he kept private for years. Rick opens up about fame, gambling addiction and recovery, reflects on what MuchMusic meant to a generation, and shares unforgettable stories from his years interviewing some of the biggest stars in the world, including Whitney Houston and Britney Spears. It’s nostalgic, candid and full of behind-the-scenes MuchMusic lore.

But oddly, when it comes to male stars, their tapes have seemed to serve as fuel for their fire, while for female stars, the only rhetoric has been slut-shaming. We dive into the story behind the tapes of everyone from Rob Lowe to Pam Anderson and Tommy Lee to Paris Hilton to understand why, and what sort of ripple effect celebrity sex tapes have left in the years since.📚 For further reading:— Vanity Fair’s “Paris Hilton, In Reflection”— NYT’s “Sex, Lawsuits and Celebrities Caught on Tape”— Rolling Stone’s “Pam and Tommy: The Untold Story of the World’s Most Infamous Sex Tape”🎧 A few recent episodes we think you might like:– Ariana Grande, Karen Carpenter and Hollywood’s eating disorder problem– Blake Lively vs. Taylor Swift, Justin Baldoni, and the internet– How Pamela Anderson finally became more than a sex symbol🔗 Once you're done listening, why not subscribe to our Patreon here?

This week, we discuss Harry and Meghan's return to The UK (but not to Royal duties). How will the Duke and Duchess fit back into British Life,  after their lengthy sojourn in the United States? Sarah offers her insights as someone who has recently returned from Sussex itself! We also discuss the delicious (if derivative) new YA television series set in Muskoka, Sterling Point. With so many TV series now set in The Great White North (Hello Every Year after and Heated Rivalry), is Canada now sexy? We say yes! And finally, we also weigh in on the tragic and infuriating trial of Lindsay Clancy (which had not yet ended in a mistrial at the time of this recording).  And, for anyone who would like to attend The Reheat's Live Show at Toronto's Book Bar on September 30th, here's a discount code for tickets: xoxogossipgirl.
