If ever there is a time to celebrate, it's when comedian, off-Broadway star and top-tier Patron Bryan Safi @bryansafi stops by to shower us with a laugh that warms the heart and a spirit that soothes the soul. He's one of those guests where nothing is planned, and then the perfect episode slowly unfolds. Tales from Michelle's local post office, where a postman is either shaming or hitting on Mich (both?) and her sizable feet, which may be retribution for a horrible Collins Family situation that took place there years prior. Bryan walks us through his time on Steve Harvey's Family Feud, and our bid to SWEEP on Celebrity Wheel. Plus, the grat mystery of our time: What happened to GOOD designer/fast fashion collabs? The landfills wanna know! So we ask: Is there an interaction you've had where you've caught strays from a stranger for no reason?? DM us on Patreon or @themichcollshow on IG and we'll read them on an upcoming ep!

Michelle is thrilled to welcome resident Bravo expert Brian J. Moylan (of Substack fame!) back to the show, as there is MUCH to discuss. One of our favorite topics, Disney Adults, is back on the scene, as Michelle and Brian unpack the psychology behind it and, naturally, Soon-Yi's Mickey Mouse watch. Brian sees the new James Cameron/Billie Eilish 3-D film, in which even special effects can't keep Michelle from famously dozing off. And it wouldn't be a Brian episode without unpacking some Bravo drama: A man getting caught cheating live in Rhode Island on camera? Imagine the interior or your HUMMER giving away your secrets, little man! The Ladies of London have finally crossed a threshold with Mich, and the Summer House leak has been mostly scrubbed from the internet, but we'll blame the great detective of our time Jennifer Lawrence for making us discuss it. Plus, gentlemen... stop chasing youth!! We want you grizzled and miserable! Love, Mich

My GOD the twists and turns of this episode with our beloved Peru! Now, before you hit play, a few things to note: Some serious topics are discussed, including TherapyJeff (barf) and his suggestions of a hotline for those considering sexual assault, and a deep dive on the latest viral The Cut article where a friend cuts another friend off for discovering WEGOVY in her fridge. (Eating disorders are a topic here, in case that is upsetting to you.) But there are also a lot of uplifting stories, like Michelle's Cheesecake Factory/Bloomingdales saga that has the happiest ending of all (oh God, thinking about TherapyJeff again.) Plus, thievery is back!! One woman tracks her stolen bag down on Instagram, but not before doxxing a child, and Madonna's corset... whomst amongst you has it?! Buckle up bc controversy abounds today. (Dog sits upright on counter)

It is our favorite kind of episode, where Michelle gets to welcome back to the show her longtime college friend who just happens to be a beloved actress Julia Stiles. And we're not sure if it was the studio they were in or the residual margarita effects from a karaoke birthday party, but these two open up new avenues into their friendship this hour by doing what they rarely do: Discussing Julia's career while she wears a very festive jacket. It begins with a mistaken address identity involving wrestling fans, continues into an unpacking of the scrutiny and pressures of being a young actress in Hollywood turns mom, and in general sheds light on a subject most in Hollywood hesitate to unpack. We also discover that singing the Requiem at Karaoke has its ups and downs. Be sure to watch Juiia in her upcoming series Recap alongside the King of the Hot Balds Corey Stoll.

Michelle has a light cold, but this doesn't this episode from KICKING OFF with one of our favorite co-hosts, comedian and New Jersey native Molly Mulshine! There is so much to unpack: Louis CK is headlining the Netflix Is A Joke festival, leading Molly to make an admission we really wish weren't the case. The ladies dip a toe into Ladies of London, specifically Missé's mole, which has it's own circulatory system and heartbeat, and wonder if it's not just a hair too performative. And would it even be a podcast if Summer House weren't mentioned? Ciara is busy parlaying her red carpet hostery into viral moments, while Molly & Mich agree that Amanda has NEVER been that girl and you've all somehow been duped. This and so much more, including the role of dogs in bars.

What a true honor to welcome Michelle's friend, former colleague and star of The Wendy Williams Show (and his viral Instagram @thenormanbaker!) Norman Baker to the show for an hour of daytime TV chat that asks the classic question: What happened to Daytime?! Outside of reminiscing about Norman's former boss and their idol Wendy Williams and Michelle's former co-host and their idol Whoopi Goldberg, these two also recap a wedding they attended in Mexico recently where a slow-motion video left Mich rocking herself back and forth. Reality TV is next, with Traitors, Housewives and Survivor 50 all up for debate, and the days of Maury Povich are reminisced!!

The Michelle Collins Show is about to get a lesson in elegance and class with our guest Elizabeth Day, host of the hit podcast How To Fail, author of the best-selling book One Of Us, and notably, Michelle's equally tall, hilarious and brilliant friend. They met where all great friendships begin... at Bravocon, where it only took 2 bucket-sized dirty martinis and a love for Bravo for them to bond for life. This episode unpacks all of those moments and more: Thoughts on many current Bravo franchises, from Below Deck: Down Under (which Michelle will be discussing on next Monday's Watch What Happens Live, the an insider's opinion about the surreal Ladies of London. Elizabeth reminisces about her amazing friend Mel Schilling, and the speed with which life can shift with no logic or explanation. And yes, travel chaos also plays a large part today, from taxi rides that could have been a MacBook Nano to live on-air delayed flights. (Spoiler: Michelle booked on another airline and made it!!)

What a literal pleasure to chat with breakout comedian star Dylan Carlino (@DylanPCarlino). Dylan and Michelle immediately bond over the thing a that truly matter: Plastic surgery, chest hair, sober dating and retail employment. We get to know his origin story, from Portland to Austin TX and their love of “hot uglies.” Michelle attempts to lure Dylan into the world of reality television, and fam we’ve been eating… MAFS: Australia, Valley: Persian Style and the new Mormon Bachelorette whose Gizmo face will make the boys go wild!!! All this and obviously more.

Catch Dylan on his tour or in LA at the Netflix Is A Joke fest May 9!
