On Thursday, July 30, Entertainment Weekly reported that earlier in the week Spelling, 53, revealed during an Instagram Live that she was leaving the podcast, which they started in 2020, to pursue other projects. The actress also told fans they should still tune into Garth’s episodes, according to the outlet.
The former co-hosts were in the middle of recapping season 8 of the hit teen drama, which ran for 10 seasons from 1990 to 2000. Spelling famously portrayed Donna Martin on the series, while Garth, 54, of course played Kelly Taylor.

It appears Spelling hasn’t been on the podcast since May, but Garth has yet to address the news on the show, and the intro still includes Spelling.
In a March episode of the podcast, Spelling and Garth talked about the experience of rewatching the TV series.
“Even though I’m Tori, you’re Jennie, and that’s Donna and Kelly … it’s just such a mind [expletive] going in and out of these stories,” Spelling said.
Garth agreed adding, “I’m seeing so much that affected me in my real life through watching this show — even though, yes, it’s a character, but these are young actresses and actors and going through the intense emotions of all these terrible things that each of them go through, they’ve gotta have an impact, not on just me, but on other people that were doing this.”
