An Exclusive Interview With The Cast Of White Lotus

If you’ve been glued to The White Lotus this season, you’re not alone. In this exclusive episode, our Head of Entertainment Laura Brodnik sits down with two of the stars from Season 3: Natasha Rothwell and Leslie Bibb.

Natasha reflects on returning to White Lotus—what’s changed since Season 1, her character’s solo journey, and going after the career she truly wants.

Leslie unpacks the internet’s wild reaction to the “three women” storyline, why it resonates with both men and women, and the power of unapologetically owning your truth. And yes, they she spills behind-the-scenes details about that pool scene.

Plus, hear their gratitude for creator Mike White—who continues to write midlife women with nuance, humour, and heart.

This special drop is inspired by a story by Holly Wainwright on Mamamia
