Reality Life with Kate Casey

Robin Schiff, screenwriter of Romy and Michele's High School Reunion, joins Kate to discuss the making of the beloved comedy and how Lisa Kudrow, Mira Sorvino, Janeane Garofalo, and Alan Cumming brought its unforgettable characters to life. She shares behind-the-scenes stories about casting, Mona May's iconic costumes, the outrageous Post-it notes lie, and the famously unexpected dance sequence. Robin also reflects on her career in comedy, the film's enduring celebration of friendship, and reuniting with the cast for the sequel.

Jonathan Van Meter is a contributing editor at Vogue and New York magazine and the founding editor-in-chief of Vibe, and he's one of the most trusted celebrity profilers in America. He has written about Oprah Winfrey, Madonna, Lady Gaga, Hillary Clinton and Liz Smith. For his new book, Citizen Kim, the first authorized biography of Kim Kardashian, he spent five years inside her world. That meant mornings in her kitchen, long days on SKIMS sets, and interviews with Kris, Kourtney, Khloé, her grandmother MJ and Kim's lifelong friends. I had an hour with Jonathan, and it flew by. His book covers the sex tape, the marriage to Kanye West and her business empire, so I used my time on the relationships that shaped her. We talk about her origin story: five generations of independent, shopkeeping women on her mother's side and an Armenian entrepreneurial streak on her father's. We also get into why success matters so much to her, what's at the heart of her friction with Kourtney, why a law career became her goal, and the surprising hand her father, Robert Kardashian, had in the O.J. Simpson Bronco chase.

Dutch filmmaker Tom Fassaert joins Kate to talk about his haunting documentary A Family Affair, the IDFA opening film that won the Golden Calf for Best Long Documentary. On his 30th birthday, Tom got an unexpected invitation from his 95-year-old grandmother, Marianne Hertz. In the 1950s she was a model the press called the "perfect mother," and she placed her two young sons in a children's home before starting a new life in South Africa. Tom picked up his camera hoping to finally understand the family secret no one would talk about, then found himself caught up in his grandmother's world in ways he never expected. Kate and Tom talk about what it means to film your own family, the home movies that shaped him, the ethics of keeping the most uncomfortable moments in the final cut, how his father and uncle reacted, and the generational patterns he's still trying to break. They also get into his new film, Between Brothers, in which his father and uncle go looking for the man who left them behind.
