Daytime Confidential celebrates 19 seasons as Luke Kerr reconnects with early guest-turned-longtime co-host Mike Jubinville for Episode 1184. This special Daytime Confidential Reflections episode looks back at the origins of the podcast and the relationships that shaped nearly two decades of soap coverage.

Luke and Mike revisit the early days when Daytime Confidential covered nine soaps each week. They remember the weekly Performer of the Week episodes and the Top Five countdowns that sparked so many debates. Mike recalls joining the show during its first year and watching the podcast's online community turn into lasting friendships.

They share stories and reminisce about Mike's affection for As the World Turns. From late nights editing episodes to growing the DC brand, Luke and Mike reflect on the changes in podcasting and what it means to stay creative after 19 seasons.

The discussion shifts to Beyond the Gates, the newest soap opera that has become a DC favorite. Luke and Mike talk about pacing, character arcs, and contemporary representation. They examine why Danny and Andre's relationship resonates, how the Dupree family keeps viewers divided, and what makes Beyond the Gates unpredictable and fun.

Episode 1184 closes on gratitude and nostalgia. Luke and Mike talk about the friendships that have endured since those early episodes and the passion that keeps Daytime Confidential evolving. As part of the Daytime Confidential Reflections mini-series, this captures the humor and the heart behind the longest-running soap opera podcast.
