Cher made waves as the latest guest on Dax Shepard’s podcast, “Armchair Expert,” set to air on January 5, 2026. The iconic singer and actress, who recently released the first part of her memoir, discusses everything from her formative years to her rise as a cultural icon during a candid hour-long conversation with Shepard.
In an engaging exchange, Shepard shared his own experiences with drug addiction and expressed gratitude for his family life with Kristen Bell, his wife and fellow podcast guest. “I wouldn’t change a thing. It’s golden,” he remarked about his newfound stability. Cher humorously responded by suggesting that Shepard might not be worthy of Bell, asserting, “She’s definitely the better half.”
The conversation took a lighthearted turn when Shepard prompted Cher to pick a dream partner for Bell, asking her opinion on who Bell might “do better” with. Cher pondered the question but ultimately emphasized her trust in Bell’s judgment, saying, “The truth is, I trust her, so you must have something that I don’t see.”
Throughout the podcast, there were affectionate exchanges, as Bell praised Shepard’s parenting skills, calling him “the best dad there ever was.” The couple’s bond, which began at a Detroit Red Wings game in Los Angeles in 2007, has blossomed over the years; they wed in 2013 and have built a loving family together.
The warmth, humor, and genuine affection shared during this episode highlight the deep connections formed through love and trust. As Cher continues to make headlines, this podcast promises listeners an intimate glimpse into her life and the dynamics of one of Hollywood’s beloved couples.
