CORTIS are not like other K-pop crews. Yes they ultimately trained like idols, but the quintet spent years within Big Hit Music as songwriters/producers for others — they knew of each other before they were actually brought together as a group (more on that in their interview). They only just debuted with their first EP Color Outside the Lines this past September and the collection pops. Featuring a stellar collaboration with Teeezo Touchdown, their songs like ‘FaSHioN’ (inspired by a trip vintage shopping on Fairfax in LA) showcase a harder edge, a certain nod to heroes Brockhampton, Odd Future, and ASAP Mobb, while ‘JoyRide’ offers a melancholy, emo-tinged vibe (despite the title). Most notably James, Juhoon, Martin, Seonghyeon, Keonho are humming with ideas, shooting and editing many of their own videos before blowing out the budget and heading to farflung places like the snowy mountains of New Zealand to make more MVs. By their own admission, they’re still teenagers (okay, James just turned 20), they want to have fun, eat good food, and go vintage shopping because full price designer threads aren’t exactly in budget. Songs about girls? Right now they’re not interested. We discuss all this and more on their first time on the couch. Definitely one of South Korea’s most exciting and authentic new groups.

Justice Smith has been carving a name for himself since his big break in Baz Lurhmann’s The Get Down (2016) as an actor who balances big blockbusters with hefty legacies and built-in fanbases (Jurassic Park, Pokemon, Dungeons & Dragons), with subversive indie films such as A24’s triumph I Saw The TV Glow with its broader trans metaphor, The American Society of Magical Negroes, and high school TV series Genera+ion. Now he’s joining the Now You See Me franchise with its latest instalment Now You See Me: Now You Don’t — alongside Woody Harrelson, Jesse Eisenberg, Isla Fisher, Ariana Greenblatt, Rosamund Pike — in which he plays a key role that could really run and run. He joins us on the couch for the first time to discuss this new film, heading to LA’s storied Magic Castle and training to be an illusionist for the role. Plus we find out more about his upbringing in Orange County, his biracial background, acting as catharsis and therapy, and the balance of art and commerce. Is he in the midst of his Saturn returns? The 30-year-old seems to think so, but he’s on such a career streak it’s hard to imagine what his life would look like when his planets are aligned!

Lukas Gage is everywhere. He’s in everything! White Lotus, Euphoria, Smile 2, Love, Victor, Fargo, the film of the year, Companion… and now he has a memoir out, I Wrote This for Attention, which, as you might imagine is a page turner. The San Diego-born actor only turned 30 this year, but he’s definitely lived a life so far. In the book (and on the couch) he covers his tumultuous upbringing, rebellion, drugs, rehab wilderness camp, and sadly abuse, plus his first decade in Hollywood, hustling hard and dealing with Borderline Personality Disorder, with the same candor and humor he comes to the studio with. If you’re looking for Chris Appleton, Kim Kardashian-officiated marriage tea, it’s mentioned briefly in the book, and we chat about it a bit here, but it’s really the least interesting part of his life and career. He also discusses getting his a$$ eaten on White Lotus, STDs, trust and abandonment issues, how he deals with BPD, getting accused of queerbaiting, mukbangs, Sam Levinson, eccentric older ladies, Noah Centineo, that viral video, and so much more.

Long Island-born Julia Wolf has been dropping intimate confessionals since 2019, making waves in 2021 with catchy, synthy-pop cuts like ‘Resting Bitch Face Pt. 2’ and ‘Falling In Love,’ before signing to a major label and dropping her debut full length Girls In Purgatory that same year. In 2025 she surprised everyone by dropping her third album, PRESSURE, via AWAL. Not only was she back on her DIY hustle — she’s often produced her artwork and creative direction from her bedroom base — but Julia Wolf 2.0, with the help of producer Scro, has pivoted away from her smooth pop grooves to a tougher sound, incorporating distorted riffs, pummelling speed metal drums, and glitchy beats, with Wolf’s voice as the emotive, vulnerable glue. Think Paramore meets Evanescence. And yes there were plenty of industry naysayers who were like, what the hell is this new sound? But she stuck to her guns and just look at her go.She joins us on the couch to discuss this stylistic pivot and the wild whiplash of the past few years including the viral success of ‘In My Room’ blowing up on TikTok with a Twilight slideshow, exactly how Drake became a fan and collaborator, teaming up with Machine Gun Kelly on a Goo Goo Dolls cover and their upcoming arena tour. Plus we get into her abiding Twilight obsession (she played the Swan house in Oregon), deep-seated insecurities (‘Jennifer’s Body’ and what MKG thinks of a track that references his baby momma’s cult film), finding love, ASMR, feeling like a loser in high school, her Italian roots, leaving the East Coast for LA, and so much more.

Tis the season! Well not exactly, but it’s always that season for Pentatonix, the jaw-dropping a cappella crew who spend around 11 months of the year thinking about the next holiday season. And this one incoming will bring you a new album — Christmas In the City — and a tour. They stopped in to discuss their reality TV origin story, getting dropped, virality, when’s that evolution of Taylor Swift dropping, cellist/beatboxer Kevin Olusola’s life-changing time in China (his fluency in Mandarin is a delight to behold), and of course they serve up a little singing number. Plus they chat onstage fuck-ups, delusional optimism, taking risk, queer Christmas movies, Joni, Mariah, and more.

Mary Elizabeth Winstead has, so far, had a wildly diverse career, but there is one genre that continues to crop up again and again — horror/thrillers are definitely in the 40-year-old’s sweetspot. From her early days on witchy soap Passions to Wolf Lake to Final Destination 3 to 10 Cloverfield Lane to Black Christmas, Winstead loves the rush of being creeped out and freaked out. The North Carolina-born actor joins us on the couch to discuss her filmography, in particular her latest work, a remake of the 1992 classic The Hand The Rocks The Cradle, this time co-starring next gen scream queen Maika Monroe (It Follows, Longlegs), directed by Mexican filmmaker Michelle Garza in her first major studio motion picture. It’s domestic horror at its most intimate — channeling the fears and anxieties of new motherhood, while weaving in privilege guilt, and a haunting moral ambiguity. Which, as you might imagine for a new mother herself — Winstead has a son with husband Ewan McGregor — was not hard to identify with and tap into. We discuss all this plus action films, the cult of Ramona Flowers and Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, Quentin Tarantino’s Death Proof, working with Bruce Willis as his daughter in two Die Hard movies, her critically acclaimed turn as an alcoholic groping towards sobriety in indie film Smashed, not to mention meeting Ewan on the set of Fargo the TV series, both of them working in the Star Wars universe, and her early years as an extrovert-turned-introvert finding an outlet in performance.

Actor Madeleine McGraw joins us on the couch for the first time to discuss her return as Gwen — Finney’s protective younger sister from 2021’s Black Phone — now back for Black Phone 2. Ethan Hawke’s horrifying character, The Grabber, might have died in the first film, but he’s back too. Turns out his malevolent force can’t be contained by the grave. Originally based on a short story by Joe Hill — horror maestro Stephen King’s son — this sequel finds the siblings several years on from the first installment, now in a wild winter at a kid’s camp. This is a spoiler free episode. We also talk about the 16-year-old’s beginnings (lots of competitive sport), being a twin, moving into exec producing as well as acting, alongside her younger sister Violet (The Haunting of Hill House, M3GAN). Together they’re sometimes dubbed scream queens or the Blumhouse sisters (a nod to the horror production powerhouse). But hey, this December they’re producing and starring in a Christmas movie. Plus we talk Maddox Batson, voicing Bonnie in ‘Toy Story 4,’ Disney’s Secret of Sulphur Springs, and so much more. Her enthusiasm is infectious.SUBSCRIBE to Our Podcast ►►https://tinyurl.com/48yfe4v5SUBSCRIBE to YT ►►https://tinyurl.com/5n8km55uSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We’re joined by Ashnikko IRL for the first time ever — prior to this it was a pandemic zoom — and she’s a trip, a delight. Decked out in all her finery, the 29-year-old discusses her latest album Smoochies, easily her best work to date. It’s smart, sassy, sexy, give no-f**ks pop, full of wild wordplay, vivid imagery, and hooks to high heaven. But for all its in your face-ness, Ashnikko’s the absolute master of sneaking vulnerability and realness into her party-pop juggernauts. We talk about all this, the connection to her last record DEMIDEVIL, how the body keeps the score, breakups and heartbreak hedonism, power dynamics within her own heterosexual and queer relationships, the moreish aspect of success, and the connection between her music and her carefully constructed visual aesthetic. We also discuss reclaiming sexual depravity from the patriarchy (obviously), the vibes of trinkets and junk, the birth of Ashnikko, f**k-me outfits, sword-making, how she sleeps with her eyes open, killing off a validation system that isn’t helpful (YES!), and so much more. You don’t want to miss this one. Or this album!

We welcome Maggie Lindemann back to the couch for the umpteenth time to discuss her finest body of work yet: i feel everything; a title which just happens to be tattooed on her forearm. By all accounts it’s been a tumultuous couple of years and a wild summer of fun, and she’s poured all her experiences into this cathartic second record, out on her own label Swixxzaudio. This time round she's mining 80s darkwave and collaborating with Max Fry, The Warning, and Julia Wolf. We discuss all this plus dive deep into the lyrics of her hyper-vulnerable, searingly honest songs (‘Spine,’ ‘Evil,’ ‘2022’). We find out the latest with her clothing line SWIXXZ, her recent horror movie picks, and how watching the film VHS opened a portal to let a poltergeist into her apartment.

Nine years after Khalid joined us on the couch for the first time and he’s back with his new fourth album, After the Sun Goes Down, a hefty record (17 tracks!) that joyful, sexy, and explorative. Hot off the heels of his 2024 record Sincere, it was at the end of that year that Khalid was publicly outed online, thanks to a years-old ex who, in the 27-year-old’s own words, weaponized Khalid’s against him. The singer discusses all this — while he was out with his community, why his personal life wasn’t for public consumption and how his experiences found their way into this new body of work, from the music to the visuals — imbuing his music with a new sense of liberation and joy. t’s unleashed what might be his strongest work yet — songs steeped in hook-ups and hedonism, but threaded with real vulnerability. In our conversation, we revisit his landmark debut American Teen, his collaborations with Billie Eilish and Finneas, Marshmello, and the life-saving anthem ‘1-800-273-8255’ with Logic and Alessia Cara. He also shares candid thoughts on where male pop stands today… and where he fits in.Stream 'After The Sun Goes Down' ►►https://tinyurl.com/mrx8fhvsSUBSCRIBE to Our Podcast ►►https://tinyurl.com/48yfe4v5SUBSCRIBE to YT ►►https://tinyurl.com/5n8km55uSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

LANY join us on the couch for the first time to discuss their sixth album Soft, a collection which reckons with the big stuff that comes along with being in your late 30s. What does acting one’s age really mean? How do you balance the passion for music and your career, and your personal life and family? How do you stay vulnerable and in touch with your emotions — yes, soft — in a world that can harden you? And, what happens when you stare death in the face, as singer Paul Klein did last year when he got in a Vespa accident riding home from the gym. We dig into this with Paul and Jake Goss, plus touring with John Mayer, being in love (Paul’s girlfriend is called Destiny and there is a song on here called… ‘Destiny’), Jake’s breaking point in the band, and exactly how Paul wound up playing piano in retirement homes.SUBSCRIBE to Our Podcast ►►https://tinyurl.com/48yfe4v5SUBSCRIBE to YT ►►https://tinyurl.com/5n8km55uSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

David Henrie — best known as Justin Russo on Wizards of Waverly Place — joins us on the couch for the first time to talk all things Wizards Beyond Waverly Place Season 2. The new series reunites Henrie and Selena Gomez as adult versions of their beloved characters, while introducing a whole next-gen cast of young wizards.Gomez pops in for a few episodes each season — and yes, David teases what’s up with her in Season 2 — but she’s also been instrumental behind the scenes, helping bring the reboot to life from casting to marketing. We dive into their real-life friendship, how the revival came together, and what it’s like for Henrie — now a dad himself — to revisit the world that shaped his transition from teens to twenties. (Fun fact: he even wrote an episode back in the day.)David opens up about navigating fame so young, avoiding the pitfalls so many child stars face, and how he thinks the industry can do better. Now 36, he’s also carving out a strong directing career with projects like the coming-of-age film This Is the Year and the horror-comedy Monster Summer, starring Oscar-winner Mel Gibson.We get into all of it — sitcoms, laugh tracks, Jake T. Austin, and the lost art of the multicam — plus so much more.

Joining us on the couch for the first time ever is Zac Brown, the lynchpin of the Zac Brown Band. For over a year he’s been hunkering down, ideating and prepping for the biggest shows of his life: a residency at The Sphere in Las Vegas kicking off December 5. At the same time he’ll be dropping his eighth album Love & Fear. It’s a record that delves into his personal story and his fraught childhood for the first time ever. What it was like to deal with a family grappling with mental illness, moving out at just 14, and the trials and tribulations that brought him to this point — shaping not only who he is, but also his work and his inclusive initiative Camp Southern Ground. We talk about all this and how it’s going to be reflected in the (self-funded) Sphere shows— and boy does it sound like it’s going to be an immersive spectacle. Plus, we discuss how legendary surrealist painter Salvador Dali’s protege, Louis Markoya, is involved in the show, not to mention free diving and other stunt-like feats. And of course we couldn’t leave out new collaborations with Dolly Parton, Snoop Dogg, and Marcus King on this record, the story behind hits like “Toes” and “Chicken Fried,” raising five kids, his genre-hopping solo projects, what he learned working with Pharrell Williams, what’s his deal with knife-making, and so much more.

As Artie Abrams in Glee, Kevin McHale graced our screens for six seasons and we’re thrilled to have the much beloved, seriously funny and astute actor on the couch for the first time. We get super nerdy — and bring in head Gleek Kelsey — to dive into the cult of the culture-shaping show, the particular era it existed in, the unique bond of the cast and crew, and the tragedies they experienced too. McHale, who as a child dreamt of being weatherman and was once in boyband called NLT (look it up), hosts the podcast And That's What You REALLY Missed podcast with fellow cast member and bestie Jenna Ushkowitz where they rewatch the show and bring on old friends and colleagues. He opens up about what that process has been like, interviewing Ryan Murphy, the series creator and TV legend, plus some of the most iconic eps. We had to open by discussing how he wound up embroiled in the Jimmy Kimmel (momentary) cancellation discourse, with a tweet that incensed the head of the FCC Brendan Carr, who responded with a gif of Jack Nicholson in Anger Management looking unhinged.But the real reason he’s on the show — which we eventually get to — is he’s heading off-Broadway for the first time, taking part in the play The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, which run starts November 7th.

Zara joins us on the couch for the who-knows-what-time. The 27-year-old Swedish pop powerhouse has been stopping by to chat for the past nine years and it’s always a joy.This time round she’s in to chat about her newly released fifth record Midnight Sun, her best long player yet. Celebratory, sexy, cheeky, and deliciously honest, we talk about its creation — alongside her longtime collaborator MNEK; largely in Jamaica — and find out the stories behind hits like the drum ‘n’ bass leaning title track, ‘Puss Puss,’ the house-influenced ‘Hot & Sexy,’ ‘Pretty Ugly,’ and how Tiffany Pollard wound up in the studio with her. Plus we discuss the appeal of Y2K, what can happen when you crush on your friend’s man (‘Girl’s Girl’), not to mention her unapologetic ambition and her relationship with dancer boyfriend Lamin. It’s the latest installment in her coming of age. Oh, and she teaches Zach and Dan about TikTok and clues them in on the viral dolphin x ‘Symphony’ moment.

Former Why Don’t We member Corbyn Besson joins us on the couch again to talk about his forthcoming EP (out early next year), and his brand new era of artistry. He’s been working hard on his choreo! He’s been spending time in Seoul and writing with Twice’s Tzuyu on their banging collab “Blink,” he’s been jumping on Two Friends’ dance track “No One Else” and playing Red Rocks and Lollapalooza! He’s been writing for BTS and working with R&B king Jeremih. A lot to get into. Plus we get the latest on his relationship with the Why Don’t We guys, plus what the heck is Dan’s ‘Good Job’ playlist (and can we get a link!), and so much more. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Arguably one of the best Aussie exports since Tame Impala, along with artists like Amyl & the Sniffers and Spacey Jane, duo Royel Otis are breathing new life rock music. Having made waves back in 2022 with the Surf Curse-esque bop ‘Oysters in My Pocket,’ their covers of classics like ‘Linger’ by The Cranberries and Sophie Ellis-Bextor’s early-Aughts disco devastator ‘Murder on the Dancefloor’ sent them to the next level.  Back with their second record hickey, written in a pressurized few months off from the endless tour of PRATTS & PAIN, with a raft of the top songwriters in the biz — Amy Allen, Omer Fedi, Josh Lloyd-Watson and Lydia Kitto (from Jungle) to name a few. We talk about all this, the covers, the topsy-turvy world of being in a band on the up-and-up and what that means for their personal relationships. They also open up about the vulnerabilities that inspired ‘Jazz Burger,’ how Royel getting suspended seven times in a year was key to his musical development, and how it came to be that Lola Tung from The Summer I Turned Pretty wound up in their video for ‘who’s your boyfriend,’ plus so much more. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Back with her first album in eleven years — Better Broken — we’re so thrilled to have Sarah McLachlan on the couch for the first time. A trailblazing, confessional, slice-of-life songwriter whose music goes for the jugular and resonates to this day, McLachlan broke in the 90s, rising up with the likes of Jewel, Tori Amos, Sheryl Crow, and Alanis Morrissette, to name a few. As artists they had to work ten times harder than their male contemporaries. Imagine a world where the powers that be said: two women on a bill? Nah. Two female artists played back-to-back on the radio? You must be joking! Off the back of such rampant discrimination the Canadian singer founded the traveling, female-foregrounded festival, Lilith Fair when she was just 29-years-old. It ran for three summers and at one point was bigger than Lollapalooza. We talk about all this and the newly released Lilith Fair documentary out on Hulu now (watch it!), not to mention how, given the constant erosion of women’s rights thanks to the current administration, a new gen Lilith Fair feels more timely than ever!We also get into the nitty-gritty of what she’s been up to for the past eleven years, her experiences parenting (and collaborating with) her two daughters, and the stories behind some of her biggest hits like ‘Angel’ — about the tragic passing of Smashing Pumpkins keyboardist Jonathan Melvoin. He was an artist she didn’t know personally and yet now, on this album she’s collaborating with Jonathan’s sister Wendy, herself a legendary guitarist who was part of Prince’s band. Additionally we discuss the creation of her seminal 1993 LP, Fumbling Towards Ecstasy, her stalker(s) and the song it inspired, and her cover of Randy Newman’s ‘When She Loved Me’ (off Toy Story 2). McLachlan is stunningly candid about her own childhood, her relationship with her mother and generational patterns, and the topics on her new album, which in part parses a toxic romantic relationship — confronting her own denial, self-loathing, and eventually healing (and a massive f**k you!).See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Icelandic singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Laufey has carved out a singular space between jazz bossanova and Gen Z pop sensibility, and she’s back on the couch to talk about her new, third solo LP A Matter of Time. It’s the next chapter in her coming of age, still whimsical and heady with love (‘Love Girl’), but more lyrically wry — check ‘Mr. Eclectic’ for her cheeky pillorying of the performative, man-splaining dude on a date. She calls this record the marking of the end of her girlhood. We also talk about her Icelandic-Chinese roots, advice from Norah Jones, teaming up with Clairo, climbing cringe mountain, shitposting on TikTok, Love Island, the unrealistic standards for women in the spotlight and so much more.

Once upon a time David Archuleta was a cherub-faced boy with a big voice and a bigger dream. As the runner-up of American Idol season 7 back in 2008, he had 40 million people vote for him. Wrap your brain around that. Since then he’s released solo records, guest starred on Hannah Montana, completed his Mormon mission in Chile, toured, got engaged and unengaged (x3), all the while grappling internally with his sexuality. We dive into this journey, in particular the last few years as he really came to terms with not only his sexuality (bi to asexual to gay to demisexual), but also his relationship with religion, his family and his community, all the different kinds of therapy he tried, and just what is scrupulosity? Ultimately he poured a lot of his experiences into his latest EP Earthly Delights, a joyful collection — which includes some Spanglish — and sees the 34-year-old gleefully embracing some of life’s more carnal joys. Plus we talk about the first time he ever drank coffee, soaking, religious informants, his upcoming memoir, his love of EDM, all the West Hollywood hot spots, and so much more.
