Obsessed: The Podcast

The Daily Beast

Summary

Obsessed: The Podcast is your weekly invitation to the inner sanctum of pop culture, where entertainment veterans Kevin Fallon and Matt Wilstein peel back the curtain on the stories that have everyone talking. Whether it is a deep-dive conversation with a powerhouse like Law Roach, a candid reflection on the state of late-night television with Rob Burnett, or a spirited debate on the intersection of comedy and activism with W. Kamau Bell, this show captures the people who define our modern media landscape. The podcast excels at bridging the gap between celebrity profile and industry analysis. You will hear from the industry’s most compelling figures—like Padma Lakshmi, Rob Corddry, and Jake Lacy—as they open up about the mechanics of their craft, the pressure of public perception, and the personal risks taken to produce art in an unpredictable world. Fallon and Wilstein navigate these interviews with a signature blend of curiosity and sharp-witted critique, moving effortlessly from the glamour of red-carpet styling to the gritty realities of Hollywood production. If you want to understand not just what is happening in movies, television, and culture, but how and why it matters, this is your home. Tune in every Thursday and Saturday for thoughtful, unvarnished, and truly engaging conversations that go far beyond the typical press-tour talking points. If it’s captivating, complex, or just plain essential viewing, you’ll find it here.
