The Coop with Kit

We’ve got a corker of an episode for you today. The incomparable Elizabeth Hurley is joining us—actress, model, entrepreneur, producer, and all-around icon. From her unforgettable turn in Austin Powers to her impact on Breast Cancer research, Elizabeth has spent decades captivating us all with her charm, sharp wit, and unmistakable style. In this episode, Elizabeth pulls back the curtain on her extraordinary journey in career, advocacy, and relationships. We, of course, touch on the lighter side—the legendary Versace dress, her devotion to peanut butter, her idyllic life in the English countryside, and even what really turns her on. Favorite Quote: "Aging is challenging. But you can’t be angry about it—use great creams, eat well, do your best, and face it with grace." Get ready for a fireside chat that is as insightful as entertaining. Elizabeth Hurley is proof that elegance, humor, and self-reflection never go out of style. -- Follow Elizabeth Hurley Instagram: @ElizabethHurley1 [https://www.instagram.com/elizabethhurley1] Shop her stunning swimwear collection at ElizabethHurley.com [https://www.elizabethhurley.com]. -- This episode was produced by Kit Hoover and Harper McDonald.

Get ready, because this week in The Coop, we’ve got the one-and-only—Uzo Aduba. You know her as the unforgettable Suzanne "Crazy Eyes" Warren from Orange is the New Black, but Uzo’s story is so much bigger than her iconic characters. Her new book, The Road is Good, dives into a life filled with resilience, joy, and the unstoppable strength and spunk she inherited from her mother. Growing up as a Nigerian-American in a Boston suburb, Uzo faced challenges fitting in but learned to embrace her identity (and gorgeous tooth gap), thanks to her mother's wisdom and love. Her mom’s lessons—like insisting people learn her name instead of changing it—taught Uzo about self-worth and pride. Uzo nearly walked away from acting, but on the very day she quit, she got the call for Orange is the New Black and life’s trajectory took a powerful, joyful turn. Oh, and did we mention Uzo is a classically trained opera singer, former figure skater, AND a track star? Holy talent, people. This episode is packed with joy, grit, and laughs as we explore staying true to your roots, and your Mama. So, trust the stage—let the universe do its thing—and join us in The Coop for this unforgettable and heartfelt conversation with Uzo Aduba. -- This episode was produced by Kit Hoover and Harper McDonald.

In this special episode, The Coop with Kit gives breast cancer the real talk treatment with Dr. Kristi Funk, the powerhouse specialist who’s guided Angelina Jolie and Sheryl Crow. Ready to cut through the clutter? Dr. Funk busts open myths around bras, deodorant, and cell phones, debunking once and for all what does—and doesn’t—contribute to breast cancer. And she dives into the often-overlooked issue of breast density, shedding light on why many women need more than just the standard mammogram. We also hit on hormone replacement therapy, IUDs, saving the nipple, and foods that protect us from cancer. Our takeaway? Power up with knowledge and take charge of your health journey. We’re also catching up with three fierce survivors and past guests—rock icon Melissa Etheridge, beach-read queen Elin Hilderbrand, and news legend Katie Couric—who share raw, unfiltered stories of staring down breast cancer and coming out stronger. Each has channeled their experiences into fierce advocacy and awareness, rallying others to be vigilant, informed, and empowered. With a mix of humor, heart, and actionable advice, today's Coop turns what could be a heavy topic into a lively, must-hear episode for every woman—and those who stand beside them. This isn’t just breast cancer talk; it’s a powerful reminder that we love you, to be your own advocate, stay informed, and go get your damn mammograms and secondary screenings. -- This episode was produced by Kit Hoover and Harper McDonald.

Today in The Coop, we carve through life lessons with the legendary Lindsey Vonn.  As the first American woman to win Olympic Gold in downhill skiing, with 82 World Cup Wins and 2 World Championship Golds, Lindsey’s accolades are well known. But in today’s conversation, we focus on what shaped her beyond the medals. Lindsey has been outspoken about her mental health journey, all the ups and downs. And in today's conversation... we touch on this, and then the conversation really becomes a beautiful love letter to her true mentor… her Mom, who recently passed away.  Lindsey opens up about her late mother’s strength and how it continues to shape her outlook on life. We talk about her retirement from skiing and how she’s feeling now in a pain-free, new bionic body.  This conversation is all about grit, mental toughness, and how she has found balance and happiness through life’s highs and lows.  This woman is simply fearless. This is Lindsey Vonn. -- This episode was produced by Kit Hoover and Harper McDonald. Our Technical Producer is Christian Brown, and this episode was edited by Christian Brown.
