NYMPHOWARS

Down the hall from KNFW, a very hangry (hungry + angry!) Terry Gross is trying to get her employees and guests to help her. You see at the very top of her bookshelf is a can of soup she's been wanting to eat for years, but she is just too short to reach it. Will her Gen Z assistant help, or will she be too woke to do her job? What about any of the notables stopping by her office on their way to Heather Locklear's intervention? Find out, on this very special episode of Fresh Air, from WHYY. 

Macy had the strangest experience with a woman named Jennifer...A whirlwind weekend, reminiscent of that movie Carol...New Norman gets COVID. Ellen has a crisis of conscience. And a special call from an old friend. 

The girls have boarded a shuttle helicopter with a duffel full of Nurtec and are off to help their friend Terri Gross — who's disappeared to the Fire Island Pines during peak Pride! One problem...a young artist is doing performance art on the helipad. Will shuttle pilot Jamie Kennedy (not that one) stick the landing? And if not...what fate lies in store for our two gals, outside of the studio together for the first time — a special 40th episode of KNFW Nymphowars....sponsored by Nurtec!

Macy reveals a hidden talent...the ability to read the charts of the Zodiac. Theda asks a personal question. The Zodiac does not lie: she will either be granted her dearest wish, or she will die. There can be no way of knowing which outcome will triumph. Fortunately her Saturn is in return -- as a lowlife janitor reveals his deep secret, and pays the price. 

After a brief and topical discussion of the 2023 Grammy Awards, Macy arranges to have an enigmatic male masseur named Rudolfo come over and give them both a massage at the same time. Hijinks ensue. 

This week, the girls are talkin’ Beyoncé Dump Meals, Roald Dahl’s James and the Giant Ass, and the great proctologist Dr. Eli Rothschild. British trucker (G/J)illian calls in with a whale of a problem, and some hot new blockbusters get a good old end of summer shoutout.

Two podcasts. Two books. Two spouses. Two Out 100s. Two paths in life. Two trans.  Having parted ways after the events on the West Bank, Theda and Macy have dissolved their S-Corp and moved on. Macy's husband, a real estate shark, helped Macy claim all the assets from the old podcast, so Theda is recording her new podcast "F*ck ______." on a microcassette player with her wife Hadar, an Israeli ex-patriate. Meanwhile, Macy's star continues to rise with bookdeals, podcasts, and wealth. The two are further apart than ever, but could an email from Andy Cohen be the thing that brings them back together? FEATURING SPECIAL GUESTS JOHN EARLY, CHARLENE INCARNATE, and ITA SEGEV

The girls join the permanent cast of Andy Cohen's latest Bravo reality tv show "Real Gays of New York" in an attempt to rehabilitate their image, but quickly discover that doing so puts them in an extremely precarious ethical position. Macy and Theda differ in their approach to the delicate situation, and both pursue their own strategy to mixed effect. 

The girls are back with a three episode miniseries to lead up to their live events at the Lyric Hyperion in Los Angeles, February 7th and 8th, 2020.  On the morning of a Blow Jobin' Experience broadcast, Theda feels a little down because the podcast wasn't included in the Out 100, but Macy has a special plan to cheer her up. Meanwhile, Theda's got an idea for how to make the show more palatable. But after one major on-air blunder, the girls get into even worse shape than before. Will ANYONE help them?

America's favorite kitchenista Claire Saffitz is back with an all new episode of the hit series "Gourmet Makes" from the Bon Appetit test kitchen. At the insistence of her friends and colleagues, she's taking on her hardest challenge yet...a confection so crucial and beloved that some of her tasters might literally die if she messes up. Can she succeed, or will she break down once and for all? Find out on this week's Nymphowars.  

The girls were invited to record an episode of their podcast live before an audience of mostly naked strangers at the Inferno sex party. After a spin around the room they proceed to completely lose their audience over the course of an hour. If you were there, relive all the happy memories now, and if you weren't--live them for the first time, only on Nymphowars.  

Weird guy Berrigan guides the girls up to Spencer Lake where they sit and talk about Macy's trip to Alaska, and Theda's apprehensions about the upcoming fisting special. 

In episode 11 of this season, we conducted a group interview to find and hire a new writer for our show. While there were a handful of decent candidates, no one wowed us quite like Marlo St. John, and amnesiac, bleeding from the side of her head, whose only possession was a 2014 appointment book with a single entry--that of the Nymphowars interview. We hired her on the spot, and are proud to present the first episode fully authored and directed by our friend and colleague, Marlo St. John. 

Macy got a targeted instagram ad for a specialized tucking tape called "Unclockable you" and so the girls decided they should try it out. Joining them are Cody Critcheloe (aka SSION) and Paul, who have never tucked before. Join the four of them as they quite literally put it on, walk around, and take it off. Only on Nymphowars. 

Jacqueline Novak's off broadway stand up show "Get On Your Knees" is the best shit we ever did see and we were lucky enough to chat with her, her director John Early, and her boyfriend, comedian Chris Laker after a Saturday matinee. Much like Jacqueline's show, this episode includes many topics in addition to oral sex, including Tom Cruise and the Ravioli Store, celebrity child names, and what it means to be a "Comic's Comic." This show is Nymphowars approved. And would be Jeffree Star approved, if he were still alive. 

With a dead body on board, and no authorities for miles around, podcaster Th3da H8mmel has no choice but to take the investigation into her own hands. After what surely is one of the most thorough and clinical group interrogations the world has ever known, she shares her theories with those on board. Who killed Jeffree Star, and does anyone care? Find out on this special 70 minute episode of Nymphowars. 

Everything was set for Theda to have a pleasant train ride up the coast. She had a book, a bed, and her BEST friend Cait in charge...but something's amiss on the Coastal Starlight Express. For starters, it's crawling with D list celebrities. Chief among them? The notorious Jeffree Star, who's received a menacing threat scrawled in his own lipstick and demands Theda's help tracking down the perpetrator. Can she help him, or is it already TOO LATE? Find out on part 1 of this Nymphowars Mystery Exclusive. 

After a season and a half of programming, the gals run out of ideas and need to outsource. With Macy out of the office, Theda holds an open call for writers and gets a mixed bag to say the least!

Much like the 1998 Craig Monahan Australian film of the same name, this episode was recorded with the eternal search for knowledge at its core! Macy asks Theda questions about life, art, and Geotran, and Theda answers those questions...sometimes with honesty and sometimes with diarrhea. Everything you could ever want to know, and much much more. 

Much like the Seth Rogen/James Franco Vehicle of the same name, this episode was recorded with the eternal search for knowledge at its core! Theda asks Macy questions about life, art, and mysterious circumstances, and Macy answers those questions...sometimes with honesty and sometimes with riddles.
