    Apr 3 2026

    Maureen Callahan is joined by body language expert Mark Bowden to break down some of the most eyebrow-raising moments playing out in the media right now, starting with Meghan Markle’s appearance at the Alliance for Children’s Rights gala, where they analyze her attention-seeking behavior, from awkward physical interactions to a head-scratching TikTok. They then turn to the disturbing bodycam footage from Tiger Woods’ March 27th DUI arrest, zeroing in on the most telling moments and raising serious questions about his condition and overall demeanor. They also take on Hoda Kotb’s emotional “Today Show” interview with Savannah Guthrie, unpacking her exaggerated and manufactured displays of grief, from calculated expressions to overly performative reactions. Maureen then dives into Troublemaker feedback, before ripping into “The View” for its coverage of Tiger Woods’ DUI arrest, calling out the panel for downplaying reckless behavior and turning a serious public safety issue into a baffling show of celebrity sympathy.

    Mar 31 2026

    Maureen Callahan takes apart Ryan Murphy’s “Love Story” series finale calling out the inconsistencies in the storylines and dishonest portrayal of the Kennedy family, including the treatment of Carolyn Bessette’s mother in the aftermath of the plane crash, the show’s attempt to soften the image of Caroline Kennedy, the depiction of the fatal flight itself, and romanticizing the moments leading up to the high-speed plummet into the Atlantic.

Then Maureen reacts to Angelina Jolie’s bizarre demeanor on the red carpet at Shanghai Fashion Week, before reading Troublemaker feedback on Hoda Kotb's interview with Savannah Guthrie, calling out what they perceived as Hoda trying to force an emotional response to Savannah's agony, plus Craig Melvin's reported anger about Hoda getting assigned the exclusive over him.
