UNDRESSED WITH POL' AND PATRIK

Wendy Braun: The Armenian Coffee Reading. Left us Speechless About Marriage, Motherhood & Hollywood. Choosing Love and Family Over Fame.

Wendy Braun is back, and it takes an unexpected turn from spicy hot sauce and outrageous travel confessions to one of our deepest Armenian coffee readings yet. Wendy arrives bearing a gift straight from “Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat” — vintage bottles of Rocking Grandma’s Hot Sauce — which sends us into a hilarious conversation about television memorabilia, collectibles, and our obsession with bringing home souvenirs from famous sets and palaces. What begins as a playful exchange quickly spirals into stories about high tea at the Laura Ashley manor in Wales, questionable salt-and-pepper-shaker acquisitions, and why Pol proudly embraces his title as a “collecto.” Between laughs, Wendy shares behind-the-scenes details about “Jury Duty,” reveals that Season 3 will feature an entirely new cast, and encourages us to audition. Then it’s time for Wendy’s Armenian coffee reading. Pol' immediately sees a woman who has always known exactly what she wanted out of life: a successful career, a loving husband, and a family. Wendy opens up about meeting her soulmate years before they started dating and recalls the pivotal moment she told him that if he planned to surf the world in a van, he wasn’t the man she would build a future with. Twenty years of marriage later, she admits that while awards and Emmy recognition are exciting, nothing compares to coming home to her husband and children. The conversation dives into astrology as Wendy reveals she’s a double Aries with a Gemini rising and Taurus moon, sparking an emotional connection when Pol realizes Wendy shares the exact birthday of both his mother and his oldest friend. As the reading continues, Pol' uncovers Wendy’s remarkable ability to compartmentalize pain while carrying the emotional weight of a fractured relationship. He offers an unexpected exercise: write a letter, mail it to yourself, and release the guilt that comes from loving someone who may no longer be emotionally available. Wendy candidly reflects on boundaries, chosen family, and the complicated reality of loving people through mental health struggles. The reading shifts back to joy as Pol' describes Wendy’s home life as an oasis built on teamwork, support, and unconditional love. He predicts a deeply personal project on Wendy’s horizon that will bring fulfillment far beyond anything she expects. Then, in one of the episode’s most emotional moments, Wendy shares the final words her late father left on her answering machine before his passing in 1997: “Keep going, sunshine.” The phrase became her lifelong mantra, carrying her through rejection, motherhood, success, and heartbreak. Together, we talk about what it means to be creative warriors in Hollywood — to get knocked down, stand back up, and keep fighting for your dreams. We also reminisce about the masks we designed and sent to Wendy during COVID, proving that even the smallest acts of kindness can become lifelong memories. By the end of the episode, Wendy leaves feeling hopeful, inspired, and convinced that something beautiful is still waiting around the corner — and we couldn’t agree more.

Wendy Braun: In The Haute Seat: Meeting Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk, The Trillion Dollar Man. Betty White's Final Fashion Transformation with Red Carpet Magic and Epic Fails.

5d ago00:51:56Tap to summarize

This episode of  Undressed with Pol' and Patrik is packed with hilarious debates, celebrity fashion critiques, behind-the-scenes Hollywood stories, and one of our favorite conversations with the incredibly talented Wendy Braun. We kick things off with our Haute Topics segment, diving into workplace burnout, mandatory team building, LinkedIn culture, artificial intelligence, and whether ChatGPT is making people more creative—or simply making everyone lazy. Wendy shares her unique perspective on company culture, authenticity, auditions, and why loving what you do may be the ultimate cure for burnout. Then we tackle one of the biggest headlines of the year—Elon Musk potentially becoming the world's first trillionaire. What starts as a funny conversation about having Elon's baby quickly turns into a deeper discussion about philanthropy, responsibility, Mars, space travel, and how unimaginable wealth could change the future of humanity. Things get surprisingly emotional as we discuss teamwork, trust, relationships, toxic environments, and how actors survive constant rejection while staying authentic. Wendy shares incredible wisdom about auditions, not attaching meaning to rejection, and why showing up as your authentic self is the greatest competitive advantage anyone can have. We also pull back the curtain on AI, LinkedIn culture, Amazon productions, NDA secrets, meeting Jeff Bezos, and why Hollywood often keeps projects hidden for years before audiences ever see them. Next it's time for one of our favorite segments—Runway Rundown—where no celebrity is safe. We hilariously critique red carpet looks from Ariana DeBose, Drew Barrymore, and Maya Rudolph, discussing tailoring, styling disasters, proportions, craftsmanship, and why expensive fashion doesn't always equal fabulous fashion. Along the way we share unforgettable stories about designing for the legendary Betty White, why the red carpet exists, and how fashion has the power to completely reinvent someone's career and confidence. The tables turn when Wendy becomes our surprise Runway Rundown winner after we discover one of her breathtaking editorial photo shoots. We break down every detail that made the image Vogue-worthy while talking modeling, movement, photography, and working with celebrity photographer Mike Ruiz. Then the laughs continue during our outrageous Game Time segment featuring "Company Retreat or Defeat," where Wendy hilariously chooses between trust falls, pyramid schemes, goat yoga, silent discos, rage rooms, axe throwing, therapy, and more. She even reveals the improv audition that landed one of her biggest roles, proving that sometimes goat yoga really can help you book a job. Filled with heartfelt advice, laugh-out-loud moments, Hollywood insider stories, celebrity fashion critiques, and unforgettable behind-the-scenes revelations, this episode reminds us that authenticity, confidence, kindness, and a little couture can change absolutely everything.

Wendy Braun: The Interview - Talks Company Retreat and Hollywood Success. One of TV's Favorite Guest Stars and the Long Road To the Emmys!

6d ago00:45:08Tap to summarize

Hollywood is buzzing about Wendy Braun, and after sitting down with her, we completely understand why! In this episode of UNDRESSED: THE INTERVIEW, we get to know the incredibly talented actress behind the Emmy-worthy buzz surrounding Jury Duty Company Retreat and revisit the remarkable career that has made her one of television's most recognizable faces. From starring in Atypical, General Hospital, Grey's Anatomy, This Is Us, Bones, Castle, Criminal Minds, and more than 80 IMDb credits, Wendy opens up about the long road to success, including the heartbreaking rejection that saw ten of Hollywood's top commercial agents turn her away before she went on to book 19 national commercials in a single year. She also shares the surreal moment of working alongside her childhood crush, David Cassidy, dancing in The Big Lebowski, performing with Earth, Wind & Fire and Natalie Cole, and why every rejection ultimately prepared her for the opportunities she's enjoying today. We also dive deep into one of television's most talked-about new comedies, Jury Duty Company Retreat, where Wendy reveals the unbelievable behind-the-scenes secrets that have everyone talking. From performing dangerous stunt work in a single take to acting alongside someone who had no idea they were starring in a television series, she explains how the production combines scripted comedy with hidden cameras in one of the most ambitious concepts we've ever heard. It's unlike anything currently on television and her stories had us completely fascinated. Of course, we couldn't resist sharing plenty of laughs along the way. From remodeling our new studio and almost spray-painting ourselves into oblivion, to hair transplant confessions, Captain Fun hats, fashion talk, and our ongoing acting rivalry, the conversation goes everywhere in the best possible way. Wendy also gives us a masterclass on mindset, explaining why chasing authenticity instead of perfection has been the secret to her longevity in Hollywood. One of our favorite moments comes when Wendy talks about choosing motherhood over career opportunities that would have taken her away from her family. Her heartfelt perspective on raising two remarkable sons reminds us that while awards and success are wonderful, family is the legacy that matters most. It's an emotional conversation filled with honesty, inspiration, and genuine gratitude. Join us as we laugh, reminisce, celebrate Wendy's incredible career, and discover why everyone from Mike Ruiz to Emmy voters is talking about her. And don't miss what's coming next, because Wendy joins us tomorrow for UNDRESSED: THE HOT SEAT, where we tackle today's hottest headlines, fashion, and plenty of surprises!

Pol' Atteu and Patrik Simpson: The 40 Year High School Reunion PT 1 - Pure Chaos, Mountain Mishaps and Friendships Revisited!

1w ago00:34:40Tap to summarize

Today on Undressed with Pol' and Patrik, we're taking you behind the scenes of one of the most emotional—and hilarious—weekends we've had in years: Patrik's 40th Walnut High School Reunion! What started as a simple reunion quickly turned into an unforgettable road trip filled with laughter, shocking observations, unexpected friendships and plenty of classic Pol' and Patrik commentary. Before we even arrived, we debated everything from what to wear to whether Idyllwild even existed. We quickly discovered winding mountain roads, scenic overlooks (or at least what Patrik thought were scenic overlooks), tiny cabins, quirky hotels and a mountain town that completely surprised us. We share the hilarious truth about checking into our rustic mountain lodge, meeting the unforgettable owner Raj, navigating tiny showers, questionable TV reception, and why our "upgraded room" became one of the funniest stories of the weekend. Then came the first reunion event at the Idyllwild Winery, where we reunited with classmates we hadn't seen in forty years. We talk about the excitement, the nerves, the reality of seeing everyone after decades, and how life has changed for all of us. We laugh about reunion fashion, reminiscing over high school memories, reconnecting with old friends, hearing stories we'd never heard before, and watching complete strangers accidentally crash our reunion tables. Along the way we share hilarious observations about mountain life, why every business seemed to fly rainbow flags, why Patrik thought Idyllwild looked like a witness protection program, and how one mountain town created enough comedy material to last an entire season. Dinner brought another unforgettable moment after an awkward encounter at a local Mexican restaurant turned into a conversation about kindness, inclusion and remembering how simple gestures can create lifelong friendships. We even share the incredible story of how a chance dinner years ago introduced us to friends we still travel the world with today. We wrap up Part One over drinks at the local brewery, catching up with classmates who now live all over the world—including discovering two former classmates who unknowingly relocated just miles from each other in Costa Rica. It's funny, nostalgic, heartfelt and completely unfiltered as we begin reliving one of the most memorable weekends of our lives. Trust us...this reunion is only getting started.

Pol' Atteu and Patrik Simpson: Walnut High School Reunion PT 2: Tequila Shots on the Red Carpet Welcome and a Name Misspelling. My Bully 40 Years Ago Did What ?!?

1w ago00:36:36Tap to summarize

What started as a simple trip to Patrik's 40-year Walnut High School reunion in Idyllwild turned into one of the most emotional weekends we've ever shared. We take you behind the scenes of every hilarious, awkward and heartfelt moment—from classmates joking about escaping to Costa Rica, oversized breakfasts with SnowWhite90210, and our failed attempt at "hiking," to tequila shots on the reunion red carpet, luxury watches, mountain adventures and why Pol spent half the weekend trying to wake up a very sleepy Patrik. Then everything changed. One of Patrik's former high school football bullies—the same person who admitted to bullying him for being gay and even spit on him during a school play—walked across the room after 40 years to apologize. We relive the emotional conversation, what forgiveness really means, and why Pol wasn't about to let him off the hook without asking the question everyone else was thinking. We also share the hilarious disaster of Patrik's misspelled reunion name badge (again!), discovering the memorial table for classmates we've lost, reconnecting with old friends, hearing about Patrik's very first girlfriend, dancing the night away, reliving California's infamous high school smoking section, and laughing over stories only classmates from the Class of '86 could appreciate. Along the way we talk about growing older, chasing dreams, finding happiness, surviving high school, and realizing just how far life has taken us—from Walnut High School to television, fashion, radio and beyond. We also revisit the emotional story of Pol being honored by his Armenian school years ago, the acceptance speech that accidentally left Patrik out, and why they're still laughing about it today. Of course, no episode would be complete without Armenian Coffee Reading moments, SnowWhite90210 stealing the spotlight, travel tips for Idyllwild, a shout-out to Raj and The Bunkhouse, plenty of celebrity-style fashion commentary, and the playful banter that makes our marriage—and this podcast—so much fun. If you've ever wondered whether you should attend your high school reunion, this episode may just convince you to go... because sometimes healing, forgiveness, unexpected laughter and lifelong friendships are waiting 40 years later. Best Quote "Closure doesn't come from the apology—it comes from the life you've built."

Mike Marino: New Jersey Bad Boy, Jay Leno's Secret Weapon, Jon Voight and What Happens Behind The Tonight Show and One Wild Coffee Reading!

3w ago00:38:34Tap to summarize

What happens when a legendary New Jersey comedian sits down with two completely unfiltered gay hosts over Armenian coffee? Pure comedy chaos. This week we welcomed comedian Mike Marino to Undressed with Pol' and Patrik while we were in New York City, and from the second he walked in, we couldn't stop laughing. Between Mike's quick wit, our nonstop banter, and SnowWhite90210 stealing the spotlight as always, this episode felt like old friends sitting around the kitchen table. We talked about Mike's incredible 35-year career, spending a decade performing sketch comedy on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, touring the world, opening for legendary performers, and why comedians don't make their money from television specials—they make it on the road. Mike also gave us a behind-the-scenes look at his brand-new Amazon Prime comedy special, Back to School with Mike Marino, filmed inside the very high school where his stand-up journey began at just sixteen years old. We loved hearing how the local drama students helped build the set and how every ticket sold benefited the school's drama department. Of course, we couldn't resist talking Hollywood. We swapped stories about Jay Leno, Jon Voight, Jamie Kennedy, Tom Arnold, Frank Stallone, Robert Davi, Dino Martin, Martin Short, Comics Unleashed, the Beverly Hills Film Festival, and even our unforgettable evening sitting next to Jon Voight, Dyan Cannon, and Fran Drescher. Mike also shared hilarious stories about being the "plant" in Jay Leno's audience and how sometimes Jay depended on Mike to rescue jokes live on television. The conversation quickly turned into a comedy masterclass as Mike explained that the funniest material always comes from real life. Family, relationships, getting older, and everyday experiences connect with audiences far more than memorized punchlines. His advice to us? Our timing, chemistry and playful banter could easily become a comedy act of its own! Then it was time for Pol's famous Armenian Coffee Reading. The coffee revealed a beautiful new chapter ahead for Mike. Pol saw a man entering the most authentic and rewarding period of his career, predicting that success would come from embracing who he is today instead of the "New Jersey Bad Boy" persona that first made him famous. The reading also highlighted the deep peace Mike has finally found with his fiancée Heather, along with an unexpected future opportunity that's even bigger than anything he's already accomplished. Naturally, things went completely off the rails as we volunteered to become Mike's "gaybers," debated building an ADU in his backyard, joked about Only Thumbs, and nearly moved ourselves into the house next door in New Jersey. It was heartfelt, hilarious, inspiring and exactly the kind of unfiltered conversation we love sharing with all of you. BEST QUOTE: "I used to be the New Jersey Bad Boy. Now I'm just happy."

Chey Smith: Method Man's Daughter Growing Up in Hip-Hop Royalty. Luxury Cars and Life Lessons, Toxic Love, Family & Finding Herself. The "H" in Her Coffee Cup Changed Everything.

4w ago00:46:23Tap to summarize

This week on Undressed with Pol' and Patrik, we're taking you inside the world of hip-hop royalty with the incredibly talented Chey Smith, daughter of legendary Wu-Tang Clan icon Method Man. What starts as a hilarious conversation about luxury cars, scratched rims, BMWs, and growing up surrounded by one of music's most iconic families quickly turns into one of our most heartfelt episodes yet. Chey shares what life was really like growing up with Method Man as a father, revealing that despite his superstar status, he was always present for school pickups, family dinners, Halloween parades, bowling nights, and movie outings. We celebrate Wu-Tang Clan's upcoming Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction while laughing about whether we'll be sneaking into the Grammy Museum celebration. We discover Chey is much more than "Method Man's daughter." She surprises us with stories about working at Wendy's and Chipotle, earning minimum wage despite coming from rap royalty, graduating with a psychology degree, wanting to become an orthodontist, teaching elementary school, acting, rapping, and building her own career from the ground up. She even treats us to an exclusive freestyle rap featuring Pol', Patrik and SnowWhite90210 that has us laughing from beginning to end. The laughs continue as we dive into dating disasters, luxury hotels, Birkin bags, tattoos with hidden meanings, her beloved dogs Nugget and Bosco, and why pineapples mean friendship... unless they're upside down in Palm Beach! Along the way we swap stories about our own 23-year love story and why knowing someone's hotel matters more than their pickup line. Then everything changes. Pol' performs one of his most emotional Armenian Coffee Readings yet. Immediately spotting a mysterious letter "H," the reading uncovers painful chapters Chey had buried deep inside herself. As the symbols unfold, we discuss toxic relationships, losing your identity while trying to save someone else, learning to stop living in another person's shadow, and finally reclaiming your own purpose. The reading becomes even more emotional when Pol' reveals that someone is constantly praying for her—a revelation that instantly brings thoughts of her incredible mother and leaves all of us fighting back tears. Chey bravely opens up about a past relationship that changed the course of her life, fractured friendships and family dynamics, and forced her to rebuild herself from the inside out. Together, we explore what it means to release people who no longer serve your purpose, embrace your own gifts, and stop being afraid of being truly seen. We wrap up celebrating Chey's exciting future, including her upcoming album, new music, acting career, Season 2 of Red Hook, and her determination to step fully into her womanhood, her artistry, and her own spotlight. This episode is packed with celebrity stories, hilarious moments, heartfelt honesty, powerful life lessons, and one unforgettable coffee reading that reminds us all that sometimes healing begins the moment we finally choose ourselves.

Mark Romain & Brett Hamby PT. 2: Magic Mike Stories and Lisa Vanderpump Gossip Before Tears During an Armenian Coffee Reading . The Boys Get Real About Fame, Marriage, Loss and Life on the Las Vegas Strip.

Jun 1001:05:04Tap to summarize

We expected Vegas stories and Magic Mike secrets. We didn't expect a coffee cup to uncover a decade-old wound and leave the entire room in tears. On this Part 2 episode of Undressed with Pol' & Patrik, we sit down with Las Vegas power couple Mark Romain of Magic Mike Live and Brett Hamby of KA by Cirque du Soleil. Together, the Amazing Race fan-favorites also perform weekly in Temptation Sundays at MGM Resorts, making them one of the most recognizable couples on the Las Vegas entertainment scene. What begins as a lively conversation about Vegas entertainment, Lisa Vanderpump, celebrity residencies, Magic Mike, Cirque du Soleil, reality television, fashion, and LGBTQ+ representation quickly evolves into one of the most emotional Armenian coffee readings we've ever experienced. Along the way, we discuss our recent viral road rage attack, life as a public LGBTQ+ couple, Hollywood's changing landscape, and why authentic representation remains more important than ever. The episode takes an unexpected turn when Brett's Armenian coffee reading uncovers a powerful connection to his late mother, Christine. What follows is a raw, heartfelt, and deeply moving conversation about grief, guilt, healing, and the love we continue to carry for those we've lost. As Pol reveals messages hidden within the coffee grounds, Brett opens up about his mother's passing, creating a moment so emotional that there wasn't a dry eye in the room. Through laughter, tears, and incredible honesty, Mark stands beside Brett with the unwavering support that has made them one of the most beloved couples audiences have come to know and admire. By the end of the episode, everyone leaves feeling lighter, affirmed, and reminded that the people we love never truly leave us. It's a beautiful journey through Vegas glamour, celebrity stories, marriage, resilience, LGBTQ+ visibility, and one extraordinary coffee reading that proves the universe has a way of revealing exactly what we need to hear when we're finally ready to listen.

Melanie Hasson: The 11 Million-View Hair Secret, a Broken Engagement Dream and Choosing Herself. The Hair Disaster That Broke TikTok. and Built a Beauty Empire.

Jun 300:43:48Tap to summarize

Broadcasting straight from New York City, we sit down with beauty influencer, hairstylist, educator, and salon owner Melanie Hasson for one of the funniest, most relatable, and unexpectedly emotional episodes of Undressed yet. What starts with jokes about Melanie’s flawless makeup, Irish roots, and "church lady" middle name quickly turns into a fascinating conversation about chasing your dreams when nobody believes in you. Melanie opens up about defying family expectations, skipping the traditional college path, and following her passion into the beauty industry despite being told it wasn't a "real career." We dive deep into how she transformed her hairstyling business through social media, revealing the exact moment her content exploded online. From a viral hair transformation that earned more than 11 million views to rescuing a TikTok user's hair disaster in an eight-hour color correction marathon, Melanie shares the secrets behind building a loyal audience by showcasing authenticity instead of perfection. The conversation takes a hilarious turn as we compare hairstylists to fashion designers, debate terrible haircuts, discuss difficult clients, and uncover why the best creatives aren't afraid to tell people "no." Melanie also reveals how opening her own salon, Revival in Staten Island, changed her career trajectory and inspired her mission to educate the next generation of beauty professionals. Then comes the Armenian Coffee Reading. What Pol uncovers leaves Melanie stunned. The coffee reveals a major past relationship, an almost-engagement, a heartbreak she thought she'd already healed from, and a mysterious item she left behind when she walked away from a man she once loved. The reading exposes family interference, financial priorities that changed everything, and a piece of herself that may still be waiting to be reclaimed. As the reading unfolds, Pol predicts that someone new is already interested in Melanie, but she's too focused on business to let love in. He also identifies a major career expansion she's been considering but hasn't fully committed to yet. Melanie confirms that she's been feeling incomplete despite reaching many of her professional goals and reveals her dream of creating online education programs to help hairstylists worldwide. Filled with laughs, career advice, vulnerable relationship confessions, entrepreneurial inspiration, and one of the most accurate coffee readings we've seen in a long time, this episode proves that success isn't just about building a business—it's about finding harmony between your ambition, your heart, and the pieces of yourself you've left behind. Will Melanie ever recover the mystery item from her past? Will she finally open the door to new love? And could online education become the next chapter in her rapidly growing empire? You'll have to listen and find out.

Mark Romain & Brett Hamby PT 1: No Lies Plus Amazing Race Secrets They NEVER Wanted You to Hear. Britney Spears Was “A Snotty Bitch to Patrik, RuPaul was DENIED and Pol' Didn't Know It Was Christina Aguilera? WTF!!!

May 2701:04:58Tap to summarize

On this wildly unfiltered episode of Undressed with Pol’ and Patrik, we sit down with fan-favorite couple Mark Romain and Brett Hamby from The Amazing Race for one of the funniest, most emotional, and unexpectedly deep conversations we’ve had in a long time with two hot guys! From surviving the chaos of reality television to navigating love, honesty, identity, and career crossroads, this episode takes us everywhere. Brett reveals the terrifying childhood accident that left him with a broken femur after being hit by a car in Pacifica (Bay Area) and how gymnastics and acrobatics became part of his healing journey. Meanwhile, Mark spills all the tea about dancing for icons like Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, and Kesha — plus the hilarious story of Pol' accidentally talking to Christina Aguilera for 45 minutes without realizing who she was at Adrienne Maloof’s Halloween party. We dive into their unforgettable experience competing on The Amazing Race, including producer drama, getting pulled over during filming, losing money in Hong Kong, surviving five intense weeks together, and learning how pressure exposes every crack — and strength — in a relationship. The conversation turns deeply personal as Mark and Brett open up about honesty in relationships, why they refuse to lie to each other, and how communication ultimately became the secret to surviving life together. Things get extra outrageous when we discuss RuPaul's Drag Race, Pol’s traumatic experience appearing in drag years ago, and the hysterical story of RuPaul getting denied entry into his own premiere party because no one recognized him out of drag. We also get into queer friendships, gay relationship stereotypes, open relationships, dating shows, and why gays can sometimes be “the bitchiest people alive.” Then comes the Armenian Coffee Reading… and things take a shocking turn. Pol’ immediately identifies a major emotional split in Mark’s life connected to his twin brother, authenticity, and years of suppressing who he really was before embracing his true self. The reading becomes incredibly emotional as Mark admits he spent years trying to force himself into a life that never fit him. Pol’ then reveals that Mark is standing at the edge of a massive life shift and urges him to reconnect with the creative calling he abandoned long ago. Brett’s reading goes even deeper, uncovering unresolved emotional wounds and a hidden sadness he has spent years covering with “band-aids.” The moment becomes hauntingly emotional when Brett quietly reveals the heart shape in his coffee cup reminds him of his late mother. Between hysterical one-liners, relationship confessions, reality TV secrets, and one of the most powerful coffee readings we’ve had yet, this episode is funny, raw, emotional, chaotic, and completely unforgettable.
