Remember her this way. Explore Shannen Doherty’s Let’s Be Clear podcast, where she candidly discusses cancer, friendships, and her TV career.
I’m still not over Shannen Doherty’s death, and I’m not sure I ever will be (I’m still not over Luke Perry’s death either). A lot of it has to do with the fact that, aside from Zack (Mark-Paul Gosselaar) and Kelly (Tiffani Amber Thiessen) on Saved By The Bell, Brenda and Dylan from the original 90210 was the first television couple I truly cared about. And when I say I cared, I mean I CARED. When those two broke up, it felt like I had gone through a breakup myself.
Another reason I miss Shannen is that before she died, I got into her Let’s Be Clear With Shannen Doherty podcast. I have always liked the strong, independent (ahem, mislabeled bitch at the time, ahem), self-assured Shannen from back in the day, but I love the incredibly thoughtful, supportive, and no-fucks-given Shannen of today even more.

If you’ve ever been curious about Shannen Doherty, queue up her Let’s Be Clear podcast episodes. Listen as Shannen openly discusses her battle with cancer, her home and family life, her friendships, and, of course, her television career. She talks about all the scandals but from a more mature and thoughtful perspective. Some of my favorite episodes feature guests like Brian Austin Green, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Jason Priestley, Tori Spelling, and Holly Marie Combs (where you can get the inside scoop on Shannen’s fallout with Alyssa Milano on Charmed). And if you’ve listened before, it’s worth listening again.
