Welcome Jae Rae!

This week on Clyde Confidential, Meghan sits down with her spiritual advisor, healer, and now-client Jay Rae — recorded (fittingly) on the eve of a full moon. Jay Rae isn't just a psychic; she's been Meghan's coach through business decisions, friendship drama, and every spiral in between. They dig into the real difference between new moons and full moons, why "timing is everything" isn't just a platitude, and how Jay Rae went from a kid who thought everyone could see dead people to reading charts for JLo and building a client list of A-listers who need someone they can actually trust. Jay Rae opens up about her own origin story — the astrologer who took her under her wing and threw her in front of a radio mic a week after they met, the phone call from Hollywood, and why she's never once broken a client's confidence in 20-plus years. Oh, and yes — there's a live reading. Multiple live readings. Buckle up.

Hollywood doesn't run on red carpets; it runs on assistants. Podcast hosted by Meghan Grimm

Hollywood doesn't run on red carpets; it runs on assistants. Behind every headline is the person who booked the car, confirmed the call time, and packed the snacks. In Hollywood, assistants aren't background; they're the operating system. From mailroom gigs, set runners and first feature films to all the chaos behind closed doors, Clyde Confidential lifts the curtain on the industry's most defining (and sometimes mortifying) early career moments. Hosted by Meghan Grimm, founder of the elite entertainment staffing agency Clyde, this podcast brings together the movers and shakers of Hollywood: clients, creators, and ex-assistants turned power players to dish on the real stories from their career journeys and biggest lessons that came out of them.

Welcome Frankie!

Meghan sits down with one of her oldest and dearest friends, Frankie Carattini — Director of Events and Client Relations at People's and the man the New Yorker crowned "New York's pickiest doorman." What started as a coat-check gig while Frankie worked full-time in PR turned into the most powerful door in New York nightlife, and this episode has the full ride: getting scouted by legendary Acme doorman Patrick, surviving COVID club closures, and becoming the gatekeeper A-listers has had to charm their way past.

Frankie gets brutally honest about what it takes to run a door — the "first ten people get a no" rule, his mental blacklist for bad tippers, and the wildest things drunk guests have said to him. He and Meghan dig into how their careers mirror each other, plus the philosophy behind People's as a phone-free, human-connection-first space in a city that's forgotten how to be present.

Part friendship reunion, part masterclass in hospitality — from two people who found each other at a coat check and never looked back.

The Art of Reading People With NYC's Social Club Event Director Frankie Carattini

Welcome Clyde Staffing!

This week on Clyde Confidential, Meghan flips the mic around and introduces the team behind the scenes — the people you've probably been emailing without ever putting a face to the name. For the first time in her life, she's running a team instead of being the assistant, and she gets candid about the learning curve that comes with it.

She sits down with Reuben, the intern who transformed Clyde's social presence into scroll-stopping content, and Sterling, her head of people, whose "you need systems" energy turned a scrappy group of interns into a fully organized machine. Along the way, Grace and Emily round out the picture of a team that shows up for each other far beyond the job description — including major support during the LA fires.

By the end, it's less "meet the team" and more "meet the family." Tune in for the interviews, the inside jokes, and the reminder that behind every great placement is a team that genuinely loves working together.

The Secret Backdoor Into Hollywood (And The Team Making It Happen)

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/3cc124de-57c0-4a97-9bfb-b47b006844b1/transcript

Welcome Jessica Diehl!

Meghan sits down with brand consultant and creative director Jessica Diehl for a long-overdue catch-up — the two haven't seen each other since a chaotic trip to Puebla right before the world shut down in 2020. What follows is one of those conversations that goes everywhere and stays interesting the whole time.

Jessica's career is the stuff of fashion folklore: she bartended her way into a Marie Claire internship, worked her way up to become Grace Coddington's assistant at Vogue, spent 13+ years at Vanity Fair, and has since collaborated with nearly everyone on the A-List. She's lived through the full arc of magazine culture — and she has thoughts.

They get into what real mentorship actually looks like, why any hospitality job is the most underrated training ground in any industry, and what it felt like to leave Vogue just as Vanity Fair came calling. Jessica is refreshingly self-aware about the person she used to be and equally candid about what she'd do differently now.

With Devil Wears Prada 2 in theaters and the press tour breaking the internet, the timing couldn't be better for a conversation with someone who actually lived that world. This one's for anyone who's ever been an assistant, wanted to be one, or wondered what it was really like behind those doors.
