In their riveting and touching new film, “KELCE” (now streaming on Prime Video), Don Argott, director, and Sheena Joyce, producer, walk the line between documentarians and fans of the Philadelphia Eagles. For two years, their cameras had extraordinary access to Jason Kelce, Philly’s favorite center, and his family as he considers retirement, strives toward a second Super Bowl win, and supports and raises his growing brood. In true Philadelphia form, Argott and Joyce are as scrappy as they are successful and show their audience there’s much more to Jason and his brother Travis Kelce (the tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs) than just playing professional football.

When Anjelah Johnson-Reyes first took the internet by storm, it was with the hilarious characters she created: Tammy, the nail lady, and Mad TV’s Bon Qui Qui. She’s now come full circle with her sixth comedy special, “Say I Won’t,” which she produced and financed, released on YouTube, and which has over two million views. Anjelah talks with me about the future of the comedy business, writing her book Who Do I Think I Am?, breaking into showbiz by becoming an Oakland Raiderette cheerleader and balancing her performing career and motherhood, especially when she joked she didn’t want kids (don’t worry, she’s changed her mind).

The chemistry between my two guests, WWE Superstar Alexa Bliss (AKA Lexi Cabrera) and pop singer Ryan Cabrera, is undeniable, and that’s a good thing since the married couple is expecting their first baby, a little girl, this December. Both entertainers break down their successful careers: Lexi explains how she took real-life high school experiences and funneled them into creating her WWE character, and Ryan discusses his now 25-year career in the music industry. They also recount their cute love story, which involves both of them not really knowing who the heck the other one was, despite rumors they were already dating.

The subjects of Marie Margoluis’ new documentary, “Ayenda,” (premiering August 27th at 10pm ET/PT on MSNBC, and the following day on Peacock) are the teenage players on the Afghan National Women’s Youth Football team, and the Canadian-Afghan soccer captain named Farkhunda Muhtaj who orchestrated their daring escape from Afghanistan. Marie joins me to discuss the intricacies of the girls’ rescue from their homeland after Kabul fell to the Taliban in the summer of 2021, the terrifying family sacrifices these young athletes were forced to make, and the hope they kept alive in the face of uncertainty and the looming threat of death.

One of my favorite shows of the year is, “Jury Duty,” produced by today’s guest, Nicholas Hatton. The premise of “Jury Duty” is that a fake trial is performed totally by actors, except for one person, Ronald Gladden, who believes he’s actually a juror and that the case is real. What was anxiety-inducing for Nicholas has yielded enormous returns, as “Jury Duty” is a huge hit and has garnered four Emmy nominations, including Outstanding Comedy Series and Outstanding Supporting Actor for James Marsden, who plays… James Marsden, Juror Number 14. On today’s episode, we pull back the curtain and take a deep dive into how Nicholas and his team of merry pranksters pulled off a televised magic trick that was all at once unique, funny, and completely engaging.

Fraser Olender is the handsome and sophisticated Chief Steward from Bravo’s hit series, “Below Deck,” and he’s here as my first in-person-guest to dish about the reality show, his experiences yachting, and how he got his start in the industry. Over English tea in my home, Fraser spills the tea on: How the cutthroat world of London modeling prepared him for his hospitality career; what inspired him to become a “yachty” and how he did it, and finally what we didn’t we see with the crew and guests when the cameras aren’t around.

When Landon Van Soest first read about the criminal exploits of Gerald Blanchard, he knew that he had to make a documentary about this prolific career thief who stole everything from Radio Shack speakers to the Star of Sisi, one of the famed jewels Empress Elisabeth of Austria would wear in her hair. Landon eventually got his wish, and his true-crime documentary, “The Jewel Thief,” is now available to stream on Hulu. Gerald’s story is unbelievable for so many reasons: his fearlessness, his ingenuity, and (as his law-enforcement pursuers would describe it) his stupidity.

The documentary “I’ve Got a Monster” is now available in select theaters and for rent/purchase on iTunes, Amazon Instant Video, and Vudu. The documentary, directed by Kevin Abrams, focuses on lawyer Ivan Bates’ tireless role as the defense attorney for the many victims of Baltimore City police officer, Wayne Jenkins’ corruption. Abrams and Bates join me to discuss the film, which shows in painful detail how Jenkins and members of the Baltimore City Police Department’s Gun Trace Task Force robbed and imprisoned innocent people for their own financial gain. The documentary meticulously details how in 2017, Jenkins and six other BCPD officers were indicted on racketeering charges, and in doing so, gives voice to those who fell victim to their despicable scheme.

We’re all used to sibling rivalries, but my guests, Kevin and Frankie Jonas, are an example of sibling camaraderie. These two-out-of-four Jonas brothers are the hosts of “Claim to Fame,” the hit reality competition show in which contestants vie for $100,000 by guessing the identities of each other’s celebrity relatives while trying to keep their own a secret. The second season airs new episodes every Monday at 8 pm on ABC. These two busy showbiz pros talk about how working with each other feels less like a job and more like hanging out, what it was like growing up with the behemoth that was (and still is) the Jonas Brothers, and who their mom’s favorite child is.

When you’re neither an optimist nor a pessimist, what does that make you? Evan Handler, that’s who. Maybe best known as Harry Goldenblatt in the “Sex and the City” franchise, Evan joins me to talk about his role as Charlotte’s hubby and Rose and Lily’s dad ahead of season two of “And Just Like That,” streaming on MAX starting June 22nd.

As “The Proof is Out There” begins its fourth season, on June 9th on the History Channel (new episodes every Friday night), host Tony Harris has a lot of natural skepticism. Not in the fact that his show is a hit, but whether the creatures, phenomena, and UFOs viewers submit on video for expert review are real or phony. To say Tony has a curious mind would be an understatement – in fact, he calls his curiosity his superpower.

In the eye-opening Prime Video documentary series, "Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets," Melissa Rivers engages in a thought-provoking conversation with Director Olivia Crist and Executive Producer Blye Faust. Unveiling the dark underbelly of the Institute for Basic Life Principles (ILBP), the series goes beyond the seemingly fruitful Duggar family (of TLC's "19 Kids and Counting") to expose a web of nefarious schemes. Through firsthand accounts from family members who have escaped the organization, viewers gain a rare glimpse into the cult's disturbing practices, including the suppression of women, enduring years of sexual abuse, and the alarming grooming of future generations of young men with a mission to blur the line between church and state.
