The second episode of our new podcast, Gossip with Celebitchy, is now available! In this episode Kaiser (Chandra) and I get excited about the Oscar nominee announcements coming out tomorrow, Tuesday. We discuss the stories we just covered including Duchesses Meghan and Kate’s very busy week, our orange overlord serving cold fast food in the white house, and Chris Pratt’s engagement. We also cover the controversy over the keto diet, but it’s more of an excuse for me to talk about how much I love jelly beans. We answer your questions about our favorite and least favorite celebrities to cover, with Chandra getting candid about how hard it was to cover MeToo while I go on a rant about the media rehabilitation of predators. We also talk about how we work behind the scenes, particularly on awards show fashion. Our comment of the week this week was a witty observation about Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez. Plus we have a reader who rescheduled her trip to Italy for a very relatable reason.
You can listen above! We’re on Spotify, Stitcher, iTunes, Google Play Music, Castbox and Google Podcasts. Please rate and review as it helps us grow.

I added Celebitchy to my ITunes Podcast library and I was so excited when I got a notification on my phone that a new one had been added!!!
I’m really glad that came through! I don’t see it up there yet unless I’m subscribed.
I loved the first one. It is different when you add voice to the text. Like Kaiser sounds very smart but not as scary , Celebitchy herself seems sweet and energetic.
I’m hearing impaired so no podcast for me
Actually, try Gretta. They transcribe a ton of podcasts. You can also submit for new ones to be transcribed.
Also, you can possibly check with your library. Every state has a talking book and Braille library, there might also be a service for transcribing podcasts.
It’s definitely on Library World’s radar screen:

Thank you, I will try
I just checked and it went through in Castbox! I have it set to auto download new episodes. I’m saving it for my commute tomorrow:-) So glad y’all are venturing into podcast world!
Yep! Mine same through too can’t wait to listen!
Psyched! Just added it on spotify!
Pumped for Spotify.
Thanks so much for the love ladies! I really love your podcast and listened to it as I drove to the endodontist. I needed something happy and light to prepare myself for this root canal. Lol. The Penn Badgley rec is perfect. I’ll be watching “You” tonight as I recover.
I haven’t started watching You yet, but I read the novel and it was so creepy. Joe is a disturbing character so I’m not really wanting to watch the series, especially if it’s as explicit as the book.
I love Jelly Beans as well. Have you tried Harry Potter Bertie Botts Beans?
I have tried those and the beanboozled. Some of the flavors are so close to what they’re supposed to be that they’re disgusting!
The Harry Potter candies are made by Jelly Belly, the chairman is a homophobe who donates to Anti-LGBT causes.
If I may chime in to the jellybean discussion to say I love Starbursts jellybeans!
Loved the podcast, listened to it on here. Didn’t listen to the first one though. Wanted to know do celebs or their people contact you on the posts you write about them. Do they ever threaten to sue. Do any celebs ever give you any gossip or clear up details that you’re writing about?
Thanks and just wanted to say I love this site along with the commenters. 🙂
Thank you! That’s in the first episode! We talk about that around 26:30 into the first episode.
My comment was referenced and I feel like a rockstar!! That’s an awesome boost for a Monday morning, thanks ladies!!! Great job again!
I actually do have a question. With all the stories you guys cover about Trump, have you had an increase of people complaining to you about these stories? Or has it slowed over the years? I remember initially when he was elected you said on Twitter you were getting emails about “this site used to be fun until….” blah blah.
I also wanna say I appreciate you all policing this site when it comes to trolls.
I LOVE that this site has become more political! I’m a Canadian, so I don’t always have the best grip on American politics, but the past few years of the political posts have actually kept me well up to date and informed. I can read a political post and then cleanse my brain with the royals, then back to politics. It’s the perfect mix!
We did get some complaints in the beginning but those people left. There is no way we could be “neutral” about any of this, nor is it politics anymore. It’s basic common sense and decency. This is a great question and we can use it on the next episode!
I’m not a podcast person usually, but I’m loving this! Been reading this site for years and it’s so nice to hear your voices. They are perfect for podcasts…I don’t know how to describe it…kind of soothing. You ladies are so funny in your writing, so I look forward to hearing it all play out.
I love that I can follow the news here and not end up depressed and hating the world we live in (except for the #metoo stuff that really brought me down and I had to stop reading about it at some point…). I lol’ed about the keto people coming for you guys…how do you manage? I know you must have a very thick skin and in the end you probably don’t care for the nasty comments, but is there a topic you would rather not cover just for the sake of keeping the peace amongst the readers?
