The Rules, the Shade, and the Truth About the Playboy Fantasy with Holly Madison
What really went down behind the gates of the Playboy Mansion? Author, advocate, podcaster, producer—and former Playboy Bunny—Holly Madison is here to expose the truth behind the fantasy, and baby, she’s not holdin’ back. We’re talking beauty, power, survival, and that wild ride from girlfriend to boss. Holly gets honest about the mansion’s unspoken rules, the group dynamics (yep, the shade was real), and why walking away from Hef wasn’t the end—it was the beginning. From reality TV to real-life healing, she opens up about finding her voice, setting boundaries, and finally claiming her freedom. Plus, we get into her hit true crime series, and how getting diagnosed with autism helped her see her story in a whole new light.
