"Powerful" is a good way to describe this episode. Paula opens up about why even being at the top of the industry isn't enough.

"LB" is the host of 49ers coverage on NBC Sports Bay Area. It's kinda cool that we have the same job, considering we worked together on a national morning show for 2 years. She's a good friend and excellent on-air partner. We got together Super Bowl Week to discuss what it's like to start over in a new city. Something she did while raising a toddler and having twins. She's a super-hero. Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/house-of-l-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Luke is one of the most prominent names in MMA media. His new venture with Showtime & YouTube is called "Morning Kombat" and can be heard every Monday at Noon ET.

Phil is an incredible: actor, writer, and director. He has a great moving coming out called: "High & Outside." If you like good drama mixed with baseball movies, you're gonna love it. Phil is a Chicagoan and a huge White Sox fan. So doing this movie was a treat. He also tells a killer Nicholas Cage story. Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/house-of-l-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
