    It’s the brand new legal drama series from Ryan Murphy now streaming on Disney+. When the trailer for ‘All’s Fair’ dropped, Em described it as “a gay man’s wet dream”, so naturally getting the chance to chat with 4 of the actual divas from the show is Em’s wet dream too. Inside Em will chat with Sarah Paulson and Naomi Watts about everything from reminding Sarah of their meeting backstage in NY, what vocal unloading is, Naomi’s delayed gratification, who’s the best lawyer, the scripts, and a side of broken headphones for Em to deal with too. Then it’s onto Glenn Close and Niecy Nash-Betts, where Em congratulates Niecy for her Out 100 Icon of the Year Award and Glenn for having a secret bottle of maple syrup. They also talk Ryan Murphy’s love of creating complicated older women for his shows, who they’d pick as their fave lawyer and if Glenn remembers meeting Em too. Em also has a huge announcement about the upcoming ‘Wicked: For Good’ premiere in Singapore. Then in our Sealed Section, on our premium service Emsolation Extra, Em and Michael discuss Michael’s HUGE Halloween party, plus Em discovered the gay cruising app ‘Sniffies’ and she has MUCH to report.
