Bestie, Listen
by iHeartRadio
Bestie, Listen is your weekly deep dive into the hyper-specific corners of pop culture, where nostalgia, internet lore, and cultural chaos collide. It’s the chaotic recap, twenty years too late, that you didn’t know you needed, because nothing is too niche or too sacred. Hosted by Sean Ross and Jordan Appugliesi, each episode revisits the moments, trends, and pop culture eras that defined us. Whether it’s a genre that disappeared, a legacy that doesn’t quite hold up, or a cultural moment that deserves a second look, this is where we celebrate it, drag it, and occasionally spiral about it… all with just enough chaos to make you wonder if we should have kept that to ourselves. Stream Bestie, Listen on iHeartRadio, Crave, or wherever you get your podcasts.

You Don’t Have to Survive to Be Iconic
It’s all about the scream queens. Whether they made it to the end or were taken out way too early, it doesn’t matter. They’re iconic either way. From 90s legends to today’s breakout stars, this episode digs into how horror evolved, got louder, got bolder, and finally got taken seriously. So what actually makes a scream queen… making it out alive, or being impossible to forget?

This Is My Comeback
Three seasons later, we’re finally ready to talk about The Comeback. From iconic Valerie‑isms to the evolution of the show itself, this episode dives into the brilliance, the cringe, and the emotional whiplash of HBO’s cult classic. We follow the full arc, on screen and off, and spotlight the performers we know and love who, like Valerie, got their comeback moment too.

Am I The Villain?
It’s simple: the gays love a villain. In this episode, we tear into the villains of film, TV, and beyond: the ones we were told to boo but somehow ended up cheering for. Are they truly evil, or just misunderstood icons with terrible PR? From questionable edits to even more questionable heroes, we ask who really deserves the title of “villain”… and who absolutely doesn’t.

Ghosted by the Rom‑Com
Rom‑coms were everywhere… until they ghosted us. From Julia Roberts and Meg Ryan to Sarah Jessica Parker, this episode dives into the movies we loved, lived by, and built our personalities around. Somewhere between movie theatres and the streaming abyss, the genre got confusing, vibes shifted, and the meet‑cute disappeared. Are rom‑coms gone, or just hiding under a different name? And while we’re asking questions: how is it 2026 and we’re still waiting on a proper gay rom‑com?

Whatever Happened to Compilation Albums?
Compilation albums were everywhere… until they weren’t. From Big Shiny Tunes and MuchDance to Women in Song and blockbuster soundtracks, they raised us, soundtracked our crushes, and fully ran our CD players. Somewhere between record stores, burned discs, and the streaming abyss, the vibes shifted, the curation disappeared, and the soundtrack of our lives got outsourced. So what happened when compilation albums became cultural casualties, and how did we all end up listening to playlists we didn’t even make?
