  • Mary Jo Eustace: Senior Bitch Energy
    Nov 1 2024
    We have one helluva guest for you this week! Jann Arden, Caitlin Green and Sarah Burke welcome television host and best-selling author Mary Jo Eustace. Jann and MJ begin with their origin story, the evolution of their careers, and the challenges and triumphs of aging. They discuss the impact of personal experiences in the public eye, like divorce and public scrutiny, and how they have transformed pain into empowerment. They also discuss the pursuit of purpose in the later stages of life, the excitement of participating in reality TV, the importance of connection and empathy, and the complexities of modern dating. More About Mary Jo Eustace: Mary Jo Eustace is an award winning TV host, a best-selling author and trained chef, who has cooked her way through 800 episodes of lifestyle programming in the US and Canada. Tabloid fodder for two decades via a high profile divorce, she has utilized her notoriety globally to create multiple platforms for personal empowerment. Her podcast Senior Bitches charts internationally, highlighting women over 55 who are changing the landscape around conventional aging. A fierce advocate of anti-agism, Mary Jo roams the planet, connecting with connectors, celebrities and characters who share their secrets to a life well lived. Her new show Day Trippin for PBS will commence filming in early 2025. MJ became a household name in Canada in the late ’90s when hosting more than 600 episodes of the cult TV cooking show What’s for Dinner with her co-host, the late Ken Kostick. Later entangled in a tabloid tempest — with her then-husband Dean McDermott and Tori Spelling — she managed to always keep her humour intact and strip-mined her misery for others’ benefit in the funny, poignant survival guide, Divorce Sucks: What to Do When Irreconcilable Differences, Lawyer Fees, and Your Ex’s Hollywood Wife Make You Miserable. MJ is funny and candid about her own fears (and joys) of getting older, and will offer a no-holds-barred look at embracing the next chapter with honesty, humor, and a healthy dose of self-discovery. As a television host, author, and podcast personality, she has discussed topics like divorce, single parenting, and reinvention, resonating with audiences by offering a mix of wit, honesty, and resilience in navigating tough moments. Her openness about her journey has made her a voice of empowerment for those facing similar struggles.
