Heartthrob, actor, and fellow podcaster Rob Lowe joined Drew on the first episode.

Actress and podcaster Casey Wilson stopped by episode 2. They explore #VanLife, sex doll influencers, You, and Penn Badgley. Since this is Drew’s first podcast, she asked Casey for advice. She said to have fun, be creative, and that people respond to genuine hosts – which Casey said Drew always is. They discussed whether irreverence is welcomed in the podcast space.
Casey co-hosts “Bitch Sesh: A Real Housewives Breakdown” with Danielle Schneider. She also started the investigative series “Fed Up” about an online feud between a nutritionist and an influencer.
