The Nerve with Maureen Callahan

Maureen Callahan kicks off this episode of The Nerve talking about the “Today Show” lineup, which included an interview with Damian Lewis where he claims that he was instrumental in catapulting Timothée Cham-Lama-Ding-Dong’s acting career into stardom. Maureen also discusses Lewis' attempt to reinvent himself as a musician, and takes a look at his newly released music video that has garnered very little attention. She then turns to the fourth hour of the "Today," calling out Sheinelle Jones' perseveration on one specific topic and her inability to say anything of substance. Maureen also goes all in on "The Motherload" author Sarah Hoover, highlighting the many dark revelations mentioned in her book as well as her marriage to the volatile NYC artist, Tom Sachs. She is later joined by Producer Marlaina to get her firsthand account of Hoover's book talk event at the 92nd St. Y that was moderated by charisma vacuum, Chelsea Clinton.

Maureen Callahan targets "Entertainment Tonight" as a leading example of why shows like this are a dying culture, highlighting their lack-luster coverage of the latest drama surrounding Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, including their empty story of how their daughter Zahara is the fourth child to drop his surname, the commentary from the show's hosts that does not move the needle, and the obvious slant and source of the inside details. She then goes after how the show fawned over Stephen Colbert with an overly indulgent segment on his late-night departure, treating him as a far bigger cultural force than he really is. Maureen is then joined by Royal biographer and author Andrew Lownie to discuss his bombshell reporting on the depraved details continually unfolding around former Prince Andrew's predatory behavior and Sarah Ferguson's scandalous affairs. Later in the show, James from Corporate returns to The Nerve for an in-depth review of a batch of new films with Maureen.
