Messy Situations

Special Guest: Author, Actress & Funny-as-Fuck “Momfluencer” Jenny Mollen

There’s nothing better than a podcast guest who “goes there” — and Jenny Mollen does. This no-holds-barred conversation runs the gamut from Jenny’s new book Dictator Lunches, inspired by her tyrant children, to the many ways she competes with her husband (actor Jason Biggs), to her fear of abduction and needing people to be obsessed with her (Kane and Michele are). Jenny, a bestselling author, is smart, brutally honest and outrageous; she had the Messy Situations crew dying. Need a laugh?

My Heart Failed at 26 — And That Was Just For Starters

When you’re a 20-something grinding it out in the nightlife and events industry in New York City, exhaustion is part of the deal. But when Sumanah Khan started feeling so unwell and fatigued that she had to go to the hospital, she wasn’t prepared for what doctors discovered: Her heart was enlarged and only working at a 5% capacity, likely the result of viral infection or some other toxic environmental exposure. Sumanah’s harrowing health crisis includes several faulty pacemakers, too many surgeries to count and an addiction to the opioid medications she was liberally given for pain. Sumanah’s healing and addiction recovery was further fueled by her passion for yoga and its ability to put us in touch with our body’s innate power and divine support.
