Really Famous with Kara Mayer Robinson
A Shockingly Authentic Sit-Down with Spike Lee. Spike Lee reveals himself in the most authentic, interactive interview you've seen with the legendary filmmaker (in my humble opinion). Awkward at times, hilarious at others, and authentic every single minute. Watch me figure out which way to go when Spike challenges me on everything like: - why Spike Lee is a tough nut to crack - Spike Lee's beef with Quentin Tarantino - Spike's childhood - Spike Lee's disappointment in the distribution of his new AppleTV movie Highest 2 Lowest - Regrets - Getting Fired (or not) - Therapy and...

Joe Mantegna says I probably know him better than any human after today's talk. So that means you know him better than most too (if you also caught our first two talks on Really Famous). The iconic actor opens up about his personal life, family, marriage, famous friends, regrets, business ventures and incredibly good perspective on life. We hit everything from Al Pacino and Diane Keaton to Fat Tony (The Simpsons), what Tom Hanks taught him on Bosom Buddies, and what you may be surprised to find out. It's Joe, the real deal.

info_outlineHi 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 also recruited top talent working with very successful podcasters to help me give you even more rich conversations with fascinating people than I did before.
You’ll get new podcasts every week. Plus extra bonus videos on YouTube. On Instagram, TikTok and Facebook, you’ll see new footage and clips and insights on the regular. It’s the same podcast. Same vibe. Same me. But it’ll feel like we’re hanging out more. Welcome back.
The first new episode is next week. I'm back at Cesar Millan's Dog Psychology Center in California for an updated talk with the Dog Whisperer himself. Well, kind of the Dog Whisperer. The name is part of a legal battle that we'll get an update on. Cesar also opens up about why he went to Will Smith for help. Yep. Will Smith. Cesar talks about who he’s dating now. The struggles he's been dealing with lately. And why he’d never repeat the relationship his parents have. Oh and I ask him about rumors swirling around him – because word on the street is that Cesar Millan is in prison. Or worse.
This month you'll also get a talk with Eric Roberts, one of the most prolific actors out there. Of COURSE I ask him about Julia Roberts. And of course he opens up. We also talk about a personal problem that’s taken him years of therapy to figure out.
Later this month, you’ll hear from someone totally different from anyone who’s been on the show. She has a big story to tell. And it involves someone you know.
Today I’m releasing this talk Anthony LaPaglia and I had a couple of years ago. It seemed to get lost in the shuffle and it’s too good to go under the radar. So I’m putting it out there for you as a “welcome back” sort of thing. I’m into it. I think you will be too.
It’s also on YouTube, by the way. Which, as it turns out, is now the #1 place where people get their podcasts. Did you know that?!? Surprising, right? AND a ton of people watch podcasts on YouTube podcasts on their TVs. They may be doing something in the background, like cooking or cleaning or catching up on emails, I’m not entirely sure. But it’s pretty cool. So if you want to give that a try, head to YouTube.com/ReallyFamous. You’ll see a bunch of playlists on my channel, including one that says PODCAST. Click play and boom, you’re in.
And you’ll see many more videos with my celebs as well. It’s a smorgasboard. Take anything you like! And enjoy!
Here’s Anthony LaPaglia. Talk to you next week on the podcast. And even sooner on YouTube and my socials if you visit me there.
Cheers!
And go watch Betsy's Wedding, please.
