Former All My Children stars Kelly Ripa (ex-Hayley) and Mark Consuelos (ex-Mateo) can add launching a podcast to their extensive resume through their production company, Milojo Productions, and Sirius XM.

According to Deadline, Ripa will host Let’s Talk Off Camera with Kelly Ripa, where she will have in-depth conversations with celebrity guests. Depending on the subject matter, a specialist or expert could also join the episode to provide insight.

In a statement on her new hosting gig and show, Ripa expressed: “After 23 years of interviewing celebrities, authors, musicians and experts on live TV, the big takeaway is that the most compelling and unfiltered conversations happen off camera. I have dreamed of a platform where I can have these honest talks without all the fuss and filter of a camera. Now SiriusXM has made my dream a reality with a podcast featuring friends, both old and new, discussing a variety of topics we all face in life, while getting deep with some experts’ views and advice along the way. Not another podcast, this is off camera!”

New episodes of Let’s Talk Off Camera with Kelly Ripa will be available every week on Stitcher, the SXM App, and all major podcast listening platforms beginning in March.

Kelly will be quite busy co-hosting the syndicated talk show Live with Kelly and Ryan, in addition to Let’s Talk Off Camera with Kelly Ripa.

So, will you check out Kelly’s new podcast? Hope she has some All My Children alum on as guests? Comment below.

still no word on PINE VALLEY…. so not that interested in any project of hers unless she comes clean on if / what / why on Pine Valley situation.

All My Children fans have had our hopes up for years and we hear nothing. If WABC isn’t interested, then it’s time to sell the rights to another network or streaming platform. PLEASE! Susan Lucci is available now!

I know, it is ridiculous, they made this astonishing announcement that everything was in place, writers were hired, Kelly and Mark were producing, a script was submitted…..and that was December 2020 and here we are more than two years later – and none of us are growing younger including the Actors ~

Exactly

I completely agree with brian

In my opinion there can be no Pine Valley without Adam and Stuart aka David Canary

David Canary was great portraying Adam and Stewart. Probably my favorite actor on the show. But to be fair, All My Children existed for over 13 years before he came on the show (1970-1983).

Is there any update on Kelly and Mark bringing “All My Children” back?

No interest in this.

oh no, more of Kelly’s me me me me me rants.
Her show is cringe worthy and unwatchable because it’s all about her so I will definitely pass on this.

I can’t fathom anyone listening to her podcast.

I WOULD like to know, what the heck is the status of PINE VALLEY? SUSAN LUCCI just appeared on TODAY and stated ‘it’s still a possibility!’ That sounds quite vague, although I guess there is a glimmer of hope, but it would be nice if Kelly would just be a little more definitive about the project, which has been buzzing around for the past two years. Eva LaRue who played Maria Santos claims “it’s very real!” So – what gives? If Days of Our Lives can go directly to streaming on PEACOCK, why can’t ALL MY CHILDREN just be re-launched in that manner – maybe not on PEACOCK but on HULU?

Malachy McCourt, ‘Ryan’s Hope’ and ‘All My Children’ Actor, Dead at 92

If you watched Ryan’s Hope through its 14-year-run, you know that Kevin the bartender became a beloved “member’ of the Ryan clan on the defunct ABC daytime drama series. The character of Kevin MacGuiness became so loved by the fans because of the actor who portrayed him, Malachy McCourt.

Sadly, according to his wife Diana McCourt to The New York Times, Malachy passed away on Monday from a heart condition and battling cancer. The actor was 92-years-old.

Playing Kevin on Ryan’s Hope was not much of a stretch for McCourt, because in his lifetime, he was the owner of 1950s Irish pub Malachy’s on Third Avenue in Manhattan. Known as one of the city’s great story-tellers, patrons from longshoremen to the actor Richard Harris would stop in and talk all things Irish with . On Ryan’s Hope, Kevin was best friends to “Ryan’s Bar” owner, Johnny Ryan (Bernie Barrow) and he tried to keep Delia (Ilene Kristen) on the straight and narrow.

In his soap opera career, McCourt also was widely-known for his role of Father Clarence McCourt on All My Children especially come Christmastime. Was Clarence, actually St. Nick? That was always the proverbial question. McCourt also appeared on the New York soaps: One Life To Live, Search For Tomorrow and Another World. Other roles included: Devil’s Own, Brewster’s Millions, The Molly Maguires, and Starman, to name 

Later in 2006, Malachy ran for governor of the state of New York as a Green Party candidate. He tackled social issues of the time including being an advocate for gay and lesbian groups to march in the annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade.

McCourt’s childhood was recounted within his brother Frank McCourt’s Pulitzer Prize-winning memoir Angela’s Ashes, which detailed their mother’s attempt to raise the four of their surviving seven children in poverty in Limerick, Ireland. Later, Malachy wrote his own memoirs: 1998’s Monk Swimming, and 2000’s Singing My Him Song.

Malachy is survived by his aforementioned wife, Diana, daughter Siobhan McCourt; sons Malachy Jr., Conor and Cormac; stepdaughter Nina Galin; nine grandchildren; and one great-grandson.
