To better contextualize the K-hole that is the Jeremy Renner app, our hosts take a detour into the fascinating HERstory of Celebrity Apps. Sarah and Caroline investigate who makes celebrity apps, who makes money from them, and which ones are successful. From William Shatner’s poetry app Shatoetry, to Tom Hanks’ typewriter simulation app Hanxwriter, and all the fascinating celebrity apps in between (The Rock’s alarm clock app The Rock Clock).

Jeremy Renner is more than an actor turned app owner: it turns out he’s a multi-million dollar house flipper AND an adult contemporary rock musician. Sarah and Caroline unpack Jeremy’s diverse array of side projects and find themselves tangled in more mysteries. How did he get his start flipping 24 million dollar mansions? Why did Jeep come to fund a Jeremy Renner music video? And why, for the love of God, does director Taika Waititi have a cameo in said video?

In order to understand the app, Sarah and Caroline first need to understand the man. Episode 1 is part psychological study, part retrospective of Jeremy’s acting career: from his earliest roles in 7-11 commercials, to his breakout role as Jeffrey Dahmer, all the way up to his appearances in 3 separate huge movie franchises. Most shockingly, we uncover shocking secrets about Jeremy’s role in a 2003 Bravo Reality Show that’s been completely wiped from the internet. Featuring interviews with guests Seth Rogen and LisaRaye McCoy. Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

The Renner Files is a new kind of true crime podcast… one that’s not about true crime at all. Instead it’s about Jeremy Renner’s ill-fated app. In this unauthorized podcast, hosts Sarah and Caroline are entering the Renner-verse, and time will only tell if they’ll ever be the same.
