Thirteen years since the end of ‘Victorious’ and its spin-off is now imminent: ‘Hollywood Arts,’ starring Daniella Monet reprising her role as Trina (and exec producing). Crazy. Crazier still that Monet — who came up with Zach — has never been on the show. So this interview is really more like a catch up with old friends as they reflect on the next chapter of one of Nickelodeon's most beloved franchises. Together they look back at the original show's legacy, where we left Trina, how the show came together, and what fans can expect as the story picks up — with a few familiar faces set to return.

Beyond ‘HA’ Daniella opens up about balancing acting with raising two children, why Hallmark movies have become such a great fit for this stage of her life, and the changing entertainment landscape since she first dreamed of landing a Nickelodeon show. Other topics discussed: the ‘Victorious’ cast group chat, Trina's evolution, Daniella's audition for ‘Hannah Montana’ and ‘Chicago’ (she busts out some bars), an unexpected run-in with Tom Cruise, filming a McDonald's commercial as a vegan, whether Zach might finally make his long-awaited cameo in the ‘Victorious’ universe, and so much more.

Best known to many through her hilarious TikToks which often rope in her Oscar-winning legend of a Martin Scorsese, 26-year-old Francesca is also carving out a career as an actor/director/writer in her own right and she joins us fresh off the announcement that she’s been cast in Season 2 of Amazon's 'Mr. & Mrs. Smith.'

We talk about growing up on legendary film sets, why acting scares her more than directing, and how the two disciplines inform one another. Francesca also opens up about hyperfixation, anxiety, becoming a caregiver after her mother was diagnosed with early-onset Parkinson's, the heartbreak of grieving someone who is still alive (the experiences of which informed her short film ‘Fish Out of Water’), navigating "nepo baby" discourse, and responding to TikTok haters. We also chat about the script she's currently writing, crushing on Asa Butterfield during 'Hugo,' her blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment in the One Direction doc, what she thinks about Harry Styles and Zoe Kravitz, Saint Carlo Acutis, and plenty more.

All hail Zooey Deschanel! The indie-quirk queen! And yes we discuss her relationship to the word quirky! The actor will always be Jess from ‘New Girl’ and Summer from ‘500 Days of Summer’ and that adorable older sister stewardess in ‘Almost Famous,’ and we talk about all this — so many iconic roles — plus the lore of her blonde hair in ‘Elf.’

But the craziest thing that’s happened to Zooey in the past year? The TikTok-enabled resurgence of a She & Him song she wrote 25 years ago. In fact, it’s one of the first songs she ever wrote. So yes, we chat about “I Thought I Saw Your Face Today” too, new music, and their upcoming tour this Fall.

We also discuss what it’s like renovating a house with her Property Brother fiancé Jonathan Scott, when her kids will watchher work, karaoke, that first kiss scene in ‘New Girl’ (there’s a lot of ‘New Girl’ in this interview: the rhythm of comedy, specific eps, being preg twice during shooting, and so much more), and how Zooey’s never laid eyes on drugs apart from weed. :)

Before stepping into the world of Elle Woods, Chandler Kinney had already built an impressive career across Disney, horror, action, and reality TV. From playing fan-favorite werewolf Willa in Disney's 'Zombies' franchise to the horror movie obsessed Tabby Haworthe in 'Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin,' and making history as part of the first all-Black partnership to reach the 'Dancing with the Stars' finale, Chandler has become one of Hollywood's most versatile young stars. Now she's taking on the role of the flannel-wearing Kimberly in Prime Video's highly anticipated 'Legally Blonde' prequel series, 'Elle.'

The self-described “recovering perfectionist” joins us in the studio to talk about landing 'Elle' and her character Kimberly who is anything but nice to the blonde bubbly LA transplant. Set in the 90s, if you like ‘Clueless’ you’ll like ‘Elle,’ and it’s already been renewed for a second season.

We also talk ‘Dancing with the Stars,’ her love for Willa, playing a queer character in a live action Disney movie, and the the legacy of the 'Zombies.' Plus 'Pretty Little Liars,' being homeschooled, studying psychology, her momager, her friendship with Meg Donnelly, and what she describes as the cognitive dissonance of child stardom and knowing “what you do before you know who you are.”

MICO joins us in the studio for the first time to unpack ‘When the lights turn on,' the Filipino-Canadian artist's debut album, his biggest creative swing and his most personal project to date. The Toronto-born singer-songwriter first broke through with his 2022 indie-pop hit "cut my hair," which became a top 20 radio hit in Canada, with songs like "I'd Hate to Be My Friend" and "HOMESICK" catching fire on TikTok.

The 23-year-old discusses coming up on Discord and Twitch, plus he opens up about making a breakup record in real time, the disconnect between online perception and reality ("Dreamboy"), and what happens when you get into a situationship with your bestie ("Favorite Flowers"). We also dive into serial monogamy versus hookup culture, the influence of bands like All Time Low, Panic! At The Disco, 5 Seconds of Summer, Why Don't We, and Waterparks, and why the blunt honesty of 2000s songwriting still inspires him. And he finally puts to rest one of the internet's biggest questions: did he actually graduate high school?
