Move over, Meet the Press—it’s time to MEET THE MESS!

This week on the podcast, Jen and Karyn dive into the Olympic chaos after Milan apparently botched the ice. Then it’s straight into the headlines: Prince Andrew arrested following developments tied to the Epstein files, plus a new investigation into Epstein’s Zorro Ranch in New Mexico. And a nostalgic moment — the lasting cultural impact of Jesse Jackson’s powerful “I Am Somebody” speech on an entire generation.

In entertainment, we’re breaking down the America’s Next Top Model documentary, revisiting Love Story, and uncovering the iconic perfume worn by Carolyn Bessette Kennedy (because details matter!).

Also on the docket: aliens?! With both Obama and Trump fueling the conversation, we have questions. And in politics and policy, we unpack the controversy around increased production of glyphosate and what it could mean. All this and more!

On Meet the Mess, bestselling authors Jen Lancaster & Karyn Bosnak dive into the messiest news stories and hottest topics of the week to give a fresh and entertaining take on current events and life in general. An extended video version with the “Hot Mess of the Week” is available to paid Substack subscribers. Visit meetthemess.substack.com for more.
