Work in Progress with Sophia Bush features frank, funny, personal, professional, and sometimes even political conversations with people who inspire Sophia about how they’ve gotten to where they are, and where they think they’re still going. These discussions stem from her "aha" moment of realizing you are allowed to be both a masterpiece and a work in progress, simultaneously.

Work in Progress with Sophia Bush

Take yourself back in time...back to high school. The ups and downs, the loves the losses, the struggles the triumphs, being together with your friends...feeling every emotion of it.
 
Is 23 more than just a number to you? Do you respond to people by saying I don't wanna be anything other than what I've been trying to be lately? Do you expect to have life-changing moments while caught in the confetti or the rain?
 
Are you One Tree Hill obsessed?...it's OK...we're here for you. You can sit with us.
 
Are Brooke, Peyton and Haley your BFF goals?
 
These Drama Queens are getting back together!! Bethany Joy Lenz, Hilarie Burton and Sophia Bush are the biggest Drama Queens and they are here with you to dissect every episode, deliver every detail you must know, and devote themselves to you as you rewatch every single scene together.
 
Join Joy, Hilarie and Sophia each week.
 
Relive it, Relove it, Rewatch it ...every One Tree Hill minute of it.

Be a Drama Queen.

After a childhood in the South led her to DC, Jen Palmieri spent two decades inside the Clinton and Obama White Houses and at the center of presidential politics. Now she’s gone back home, traveling all over the South to figure out what Americans in that region really think about the state of the country. The conversations she had were deeply eye-opening!

Jen shares the confessions she heard from southern voters, why she's convinced Americans are actually fighting stereotypes instead of each other, and the surprising discoveries that gave her hope.

Don Lemon has built an independent media company with nearly 11 million followers, but he’s still operating like a scrappy, fearless startup, and he’s got plenty to say about what happens when the government comes after you for doing your job. 

Don lets loose about being arrested while covering an anti-ICE protest and why he thinks Democrats need to stop playing it safe. Plus, Sophia and Don exchange hot takes about what it will take to end the war in Iran, what good government looks like, and why young voters have all the power.
