We are 2 blessed 2 be stressed because this week we have lesbian pop superstar King Princess up in the studio to discuss Mass chanteuse JoJo Levesque and her new book "Over The Influence: A Memoir." We talk about JoJo's rocky musical journey from being a breakout teen star in the early 2000’s to the trappings of a bad record deal with Aaliyah’s shady uncle, Coolatas, Galentines at Taylor Swift's house, the pressure to be pop, and--damn--just figuring out this crazy ass business. AGAPE!

I couldn’t help but wonder if Samantha should be the one writing a book about sex. Maybe she could finally explain where the G-spot is, or would it just end up being an episode of CBC? This week, we are pleasuring ourselves with Canadian sex god Kim Cattrall’s book "Sexual Intelligence." We go deep inside the part history-part outsider art photography book and discuss ancient aphrodisiacs, what Toronto singles really want in bed, the phallus in art, oysters, female Viagra, bundles of nerves, outdoor lovemaking, and where our fantasies really come from.

Noted cyberbully Ben Mora joins us to discuss Slovenian fashionista Melania Trump and her not-that-revealing new memoir "Melania." From a bucolic childhood in Sevnica to strutting the catwalks in Milan, renovating marble floors, being confused on January 6, her failed caviar moisturizer, battling Rosie O'Donnell, and of course, the infamous Zara jacket—this is a high-octane story of cheekbones, checkbooks, and the American Dream.

Babe, can you grab my hobo bag and a Venti Valium Latte from Starbs??? I’m headed to the Golden Globes to style Debra Messing, and there’s crazy traffic on the 405.

We cover layering camisoles, altering Nicole Richie's size 10 dress in Vegas, her revolutionary TV show, Anne Hathaway's views on denim, not eating, and how she invented pairing a vintage Chanel belt with an H&M dress. I die, this episode is so glam!
