Hi friends, welcome back to Really Famous. It’s been a minute, I know. Thank you for sticking with me when my release schedule got, shall we say, a bit looser than usual. Well, I’m here with good news. I’m back with more content than ever. While you’ve been waiting patiently for new episodes to appear in Apple Podcasts or Spotify or whatever your preferred podcast app is (thank you!), I’ve been busy behind the scenes. First, I partnered with YouTube. They connected me with an in-house YouTube pro, put me through a few boot camps and welcomed me into their YouTube creator community. I...

Julian McMahon Tribute - 1 of 2

Really Famous with Kara Mayer Robinson

Julian McMahon was a regular on Really Famous. And I'm grateful for our talks. Julian died earlier this week. When I think of Julian, I smile. I laugh. All good things. He was fun, open-minded, inquisitive, up for whatever, whether it was coming back on my podcast for a third time - but this time to interview me - or doing an impromptu dance with me on the Malibu Pier just so I’d have something fun to share on social media. The best approach to life, in my humble opinion. He loved it all. Life. Work. Entertainment. Family. People. I think you’ll agree. This is my tribute to him – simply...

Beverly D'Angelo classic

Really Famous with Kara Mayer Robinson

This is my classic talk with Beverly D’Angelo. Bev and I were texting last week and decided it’s time to record a new talk, especially since she’s been up to a lot since we first recorded this talk in 2019. But we’re having some trouble coordinating our schedules, so I’m running this one now because it’s a fun one with juicy stories and it’s entirely possible we won’t get that new one on the books anytime soon. And since Bev’s ex, Al Pacino, who’s also the father of her twins, has a new memoir out, called Sonny Boy, I thought, yeah, let’s also hear from Bev, who has quite...

Alan Cumming has an FAQ page on his website. That's because he's been interviewed so many times and he's done with the same old questions. That's actually perfect for me because I can't stand same old questions.

But!

He has done so many things (mastered theater, won a Tony, starred in hit TV series like The Good Wife -- he played Eli Gold -- and Instinct, starred in everything from Doctor Who to Sex and the City and Spy Kids, co-hosted the Tonys, made albums, received 40+ awards for his humanitarianism, got 3 honorary degrees, holy moly, the list goes on!) that I felt overwhelmed. Where was I going to go with this interview?

Then it hit me.

Proverbs.

Listen now and you'll know exactly what I mean.

And off we go...
