For years, Audrina Patridge’s podcasting life was about looking backward, co-hosting a rewatch of the MTV series that made her famous. Her new show is aimed squarely at the present. Say More with Audrina Patridge, a weekly series built around honest conversations that go beyond the surface, premiered November 12 in both audio and video formats, with full video episodes on YouTube and Spotify Video and audio on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and all major platforms.

The subject matter is the stuff of group chats and brunches: dating, desire and relationships, motherhood, mental health and starting over, with celebrity friends and experts joining Patridge each week. It is a deliberate pivot from Was It Real? The Hills Rewatch. Where her old show revisited the past, Say More is built to explore the questions and life transitions shaping who she, and her audience, are today.

“I’ve spent so much of my life in front of the camera, but I feel like there’s still so much to learn, so many stories to share, and so many conversations worth having,” Patridge said. “That’s really what inspired Say More. I wanted to create a space where we can be ourselves, have real, honest conversations, laugh, learn from each other, and talk about everything from relationships and motherhood to personal growth and all the ups and downs of life.”

The launch comes with a real team behind it: Network One Digital will produce the series, and Amplitude Media Partners will lead advertising sales and brand partnerships. Patridge arrives with an audience that has followed her since The Hills, through Dancing with the Stars, her VH1 series Audrina and her 2022 memoir, Choices: To the Hills and Back Again. Say More is her bet that audience is ready to grow up alongside her, one unfiltered conversation at a time.

Hallmark’s Leading Men Trade Scripted Romance for Unscripted Banter on ‘The Mr. Nice Guys’

Three of the most familiar faces in made-for-TV romance have decided to find out what happens without a script. Benjamin Ayres, Paul Campbell and Wes Brown, leading men who have headlined stacks of Hallmark movies between them, launched their new podcast, The Mr. Nice Guys, on Thursday, November 12, arriving with a two-episode premiere at 9 AM Pacific / noon Eastern.

The pitch, in their own words, is admirably honest: “Three guys. One podcast. Absolutely no idea what we’re doing.” That self-deprecation is the concept. Where their day jobs ask them to be charming on cue in small towns with perfect snowfall, The Mr. Nice Guys lets three friends and longtime colleagues talk like themselves, and the announcement was met with a wave of support from across their extended Hallmark family, a ready-made first audience of loyal viewers who already treat these actors like holiday-season relatives.

The timing is smart. All three men are at the center of Hallmark’s year-round movie machine, and the network’s audience is one of the most devoted in television. A podcast gives that audience a weekly, unscripted version of the personalities they usually only see in 82-minute installments, and gives the actors a property they own and shape themselves.

Episodes are available to watch and listen to now, with more at TheMrNiceGuys.com. Whether the nicest guys in the business can survive a format with no script, no snow machine and no guaranteed happy ending is exactly the fun of it, and based on the premiere-day response, their audience is more than happy to find out with them.
