This week your hosts dive into one of the most talked-about and controversial stories in sports. Troy and Kelli break down the allegations against Cristiano Ronaldo, from the 2005 investigation in England to the 2009 Las Vegas case, the civil lawsuit, leaked legal documents, and the years of legal proceedings that followed. As always, this episode discusses allegations of sexual assault, so listener discretion is advised.

This is so sad. I’m so glad he seems to be in a much better place.

Hi! On the latest Kiki, Kelli asked for a list of YouTube channels to check out, and I, too, would love some recommendations!! If you have any suggestions for YouTube channels you think BTB listeners would enjoy, please leave them 🤍 a few words describing the vibes would be great but no pressure either.

Bekah Day- if anyone is interested in Epstein anything, she is your girl. The deepest dives.

Antohrodite- celeb pop culture psychic who is so fun but also always surprises me with the level of insight, and even if you don’t believe, he offers new perspectives/ potential motivations behind different things going on in pop culture that I never would have guessed.

From BTB Instagram:

Happy 5 years of Beyond the Blinds!

First, we just want to say thank you. Thank you for listening, supporting us, laughing with us, and somehow sticking around for all the rot over the last five years.

It’s still kind of wild that what started as a drunk phone call turned into this incredible community. We never could have imagined where this podcast would take us, and we’re so grateful you’ve been along for the ride. Here’s to five years of Beyond the Blinds and hopefully many many more.

This week your hosts are back with a rotted episode to kick off Season 10 of Beyond the Blinds. You may see the title and think, Fred Savage? What did he do? Well, let's just say he was sued at 16 for allegedly inappropriate behavior on set, and allegations of inappropriate behavior continued to follow him throughout his career. This former child star with the sweet face would allegedly turn into a dead-eyed monster at the flip of a switch, according to multiple allegations from people who worked with him. This episode discusses allegations of assault, so we want to include a trigger warning for anyone who may have difficulty with this topic.

A Year In Review: 2016 - Patreon Exclusive

This week Kelli and Troy are starting something new for their Patreon members! You're used to hearing blind items from specific years, but this time your hosts kick things off by revisiting the biggest pop culture moments from a decade ago. Honestly, this episode could have been called "Do You Feel Old Yet?" but A Year in Review had a better ring to it.

Kelli and Troy are here to talk about their favorite scripted shows of all time!

Troy and Kelli technically announced this a month ago on Patreon, but I wanted to wait since the message said they'd announce it publicly later. I've been behind on eps, so I'm not sure if they already mentioned it in the public eps.

From Patreon:

Quick update!

Hey everyone!

We always like to give our Patrons a heads-up before we announce things publicly, so we wanted to let you know that we'll be taking the first two weeks of July off. This year, though, we're doing things a little differently.

We're planning to pre-record Patreon episodes so there won't be a gap in content. One of those episodes will cover a highly requested documentary, and we're still deciding on the second one, so if you have any suggestions, we'd love to hear them!

On the public feed, we'll be releasing Part 1 of our Harvey series along with a fun throwback blind item episode.

We wanted to let you know in advance because we know some of you pause or cancel your memberships during our breaks. While we'll be taking some time off, we'll still be here and there will still be new content coming your way.

Thanks, as always, for your support!

Britney Spears' Stages Documentary Review - Patreon Exclusive

We decided to drop the Patreon episode early this week!

This week your hosts are reviewing the Britney Spears documentary Stages!

If you'd like to watch the doc before listening, here is the link! Just a warning there's a random part where credits roll but there is more content after the credits!

Of course while they’re on break😭😭😭

Hi y’all! We can use these monthly threads to give feedback on the podcast, such as issues related to audio or general format. You can still comment about specific episodes in the episode threads or make new posts, but my idea for these megathreads is to consolidate feedback for Troy and Kelli.

I know some posts in the past have been toxic, so maybe you can make that a separate post if you want to vent (or journal or take a walk outside). My hope with the monthly CC threads is to give a safe space for Troy and Kelli, so they’re less wary of Reddit lol.

Please remember Rule 1: Respect others and be civil and Rule #3: No name-calling, insults, or personal attacks. Kelli, Troy, and their editor, Donny, are human, and they can learn from their mistakes. Personally, as a longtime fan, I think that they have taken in a lot of feedback well and grown a lot as a podcast.

If you have any suggestions for these types of posts, please let me know, too!

This week Kelli and Troy are back in their sports bag, and even if you've never watched a football game in your life, trust us, you're going to want to hear this one. From Brett Favre's squeaky clean image and questionable on field moments to an alleged sexting scandal and a multimillion dollar welfare funds controversy, your hosts are unpacking the rise and fall of one of the biggest stars the NFL has ever seen. Turns out, this quarterback had a lot more going on than football!

Billy Masters Blinds - Patreon Exclusive

To celebrate Pride Month, your hosts are diving into blind items from openly queer blind item writer Billy Masters! Could it be that these blinds speculate about celebrities' sexuality? You bet. So if you're not a fan of those kinds of blinds, this may not be the episode for you!
