Juicy Scoop.
Hello and welcome back to Juicy Scoop
with more of your favorite blue-eyed delight,
non-hat wearing, thank God.
Chris Franangola.
Yeah.
Chris, let's get into the topics.
George Santos really made a splash on cameo.
And apparently he is suing Jimmy Kimmel
for using his cameos saying like,
that they're not yours to use.
But in diving into it more,
the thing about cameo that you have to be careful about,
if you do Cameo, what you and I both do,
is the people that bought that Cameo for 50, 100,
300 dollars, it's theirs.
It's their property.
So they can share it on social media and make fun of you.
They can give it to Jimmy Kimmel.
Right, yeah.
So you have to be careful when you do those.
I like to look cute when I do them.
And I mean, I do, I, but I do them thinking, you know, remember,
this is going to go out there.
And sometimes people just get bored and they just start
spilling some juice about their life on the Camio and then those go,
especially like about housewives and stuff, then I see them in like the other
groups and things.
And so I feel like that's what happens a lot with podcasting too. go especially like about housewives and stuff, then I see them in like the other groups and things. Right, right.
And so...
I feel like that's what happens a lot with podcasting too.
All these people are getting in trouble for different things.
Yeah.
Because you start talking for hours on end, you know, some to some podcast.
And next thing you know, they just like say something like, I think, you know, the Tom
Sandoval thing we talked about, I think he's talking, who knows.
You know, that was like a written interview.
Yeah.
But yeah, I think you're just getting so used to just
chatting, but you know exactly. You gotta but you know like he's got anything to lose,
but he's not going to win that. So I thought that was interesting. Wendy Williams, I'm like,
okay, I'm very confused and I've read stuff on this. Poor Wendy Williams, her show ended in 2021. It got canceled in 2022.
Then she did a documentary where she was part of,
or something, and this is now like part two of that.
Right.
So, but it's like they picked up the cameras.
Maybe, I'm guessing maybe she had a deal to do a part two,
but it's not making her look good.
All her family is talking.
She's on the cover of people with a family going,
we don't know where she is.
She's an alcoholic, she's at some facility.
We see her in this clips being like,
kind of losing it and being like,
take me back to the studio and they're like,
we just drove by there and her being like, I'm broke.
And it's just so, like, I'm like,
I don't understand like who's in charge.
Well, and cause she's,
is she getting paid to be in this documentary
or she just signed something away
and the family's getting money for it?
I mean, what's the other,
doesn't she have like mental health issues or something?
Because I feel like she, that show was huge.
And she was killing it on that time slot.
I loved being in that show.
And then all of a sudden, it just kind of weirdly ended
because there was a lot of different re-indemn.
Remember, she fainted,
and then there was, she wasn't showing up and blah, blah, blah.
But I feel like it ended rather quickly.
It didn't cancel because of ratings.
I think it was doing very well.
No, she took all this time off.
Yeah.
And that's when they were having guest hosts and stuff,
which I was part of that as well.
Yeah.
Hoping, hoping, hoping that she could come back.
And she just couldn't.
And it was like a combination of-
But is it health issues?
Yes, I mean, she has Graves disease.
And then also she, I guess,
is struggling with alcoholism, I guess, apparently.
But she seemed to be okay after it all came out
with the husband.
That the husband had not only a mistress that I think she was aware of,
once he had a baby she was like, okay, there's no denying this.
Yeah.
Last time I was on the show she was good.
She was like, I'm going to come out to LA and have some fun.
And she was like over him.
Right.
And then something happened and then she just never came back and they just couldn't keep the show going on anymore.
But is she also older now?
I mean, how old is she?
Is she 50 or is she 80?
She's certainly not 80.
I mean, I have no idea.
She's probably close to 60.
Oh, so she's young.
Yeah, if she didn't have all these ailments,
she could go on for another 20 years.
Right, right.
She was very unique in what she did.
Then she was like, oh, I'm gonna do a podcast,
I'm gonna do this and that, you know,
everyone thinks that's easier.
Yeah, I know.
No, but I don't know.
I'm very confused if she's part of this documentary or not.
And if she is not, I feel like that's not okay
that we're even gonna see this.
Right, what is it?
What is it gonna air on?
Lifetime.
Oh, okay.
Wow.
Like maybe she, you know what I mean?
Like even if she signed and did it,
why isn't there somebody going to court?
That's where I feel like nobody's on her side.
You know what she needs to do right now?
Like if this was my mother, I would be like,
I'm going to court to stop this.
Because yes, she agreed to do this
when she was in her right mind, sound of mind and body.
But she's not anymore.
And therefore I don't think that this is what she wants
out there as her last legacy is her having cameras
following around when she really doesn't, like this is going to be the last thing that we might see.
We shouldn't be able to see this.
She should go on the Shannon Char podcast, but that's that's what everybody does. I just start to name because that's what she did
before. She was like a radio DJ who was real. Yeah, that's what she'd spill all the beans back.
She was the original Cat Williams.
Exactly, now go to Ann Monique who did it recently.
Well, you know what's going on with Monique?
No.
So she has Monique the comedian.
She's going on tour again with Cat,
which I think is a great combo.
Talk about going to listen to some juicy fucking scoop,
biotik into that.
And, but she has this great looking,
well-spoken adult son who is from her first relationship
by Gasser.
And then she's three or two other little,
well they're not little now,
but with the man that she is her manager,
that she calls daddy,
I don't know if she calls her husband daddy,
but whatever.
And the son got on TikTok, the adult son, and basically said, like, we're estranged.
We're never talking.
We're never going to fuck with each other again.
All these awful things.
And it's so sad to watch.
As I watched it, I was like, and then of course, Monique and her husband, who's the step
bad, went and counteracted, you know,, did their counter argument and was like,
we gave him money for a car, we, da, da, da, da.
He's being well, like, she doesn't want to see
her granddaughter.
And it's just so icky that like everyone is doing this,
like on social media.
Yeah, I know.
I'm gonna tell on you, well, no, I'm gonna tell on you.
And you're like, well, what is the end game here?
Yeah, not.
But every time I see something like this, I'm always just like,
Oh, my kids never do this to me.
And he's like, all she cares about being as monique and everything.
And I'm like, oh, no, I don't think so.
They're good.
Right now you're safe.
Right now I think I'm pretty safe, but doesn't look like they're turning that,
that, that way.
But I might, I might go on the Shatton Shop podcast,
talk for like five hours.
You're the only one that couldn't be persuaded
by certain people, I know that.
How do you feel now about this relationship
of Taylor and Travis?
I feel that there's a couple girls
that have been talking about it and I kind of agree.
Oh.
Could she possibly catch the ick factor
in the next two months?
When he got up there at the award ceremony or whatever.
Started to qualify for the right to party.
No, that one was bad enough.
I think it was worst when he saying,
I got friends in low place.
And one of the things I've said
in order to keep this relationship,
marriage kids going on,
is that I'm afraid that Travis is a secret,
he has a secret desire to be a rock star.
Well.
And there's nothing worse that is terrifying.
Yeah. The only thing more terrifying than that is when a comedian actually wants to be a rock star. Well. And there's nothing worse that is terrifying. Yeah.
The only thing more terrifying than that is when a comedian
actually wants to be a singer.
I'll give you what probably the reality situation is,
which might even be more terrifying than wanting to be
a rock star is he is a bro, a bro, bro.
And a bro is fine in short spurts.
You know what I mean?
You don't want bro, like this is the guy who has like a, you know, a male den, you know,
they go watch TV, they'll come in here, I'm in my man cave.
Like that's what he's going to be at 40.
Right now he's whatever, 30 part of.
But you're going to be Bro, cigar guy, he's good friends.
That's what I'm saying
I'm thinking like okay, they it's they've only been dating for three months, right and they dated during the fun of
Dating the the captain of the football team right of the team that won. Yeah, and I
Look at I have been pro this relationship, but I feel like there might be a moment
that happens with girls.
It's different with guys where they get turned off
because I'm not a guy.
I only know when I've been that girl
that's been into somebody or I've had a friend
and they just do that one thing.
I love when I ask my friends when they break up,
whether it's marriage or divorce or boyfriend
Whatever and I say when was that moment like you know how people say I have a rock bottom moment when I had to get up
I'll call yeah
Women will have that moment. I remember hearing this from several women where all of a sudden
It's just I got turned off and I could not
get
Turned back on and I could not get turned back on.
And I think she's still into it.
And it's a weird thing.
It could be like the way they eat or something.
It could be this singing thing,
but she's gonna let it go.
Cause you're on a private jet to see her in Australia.
Yeah, she's heading to Australia.
And I think she's still, and here's the thing,
whether you're Tessa Ressa.
Tessa Ressa, yeah.
Tessa Ressa or Taylor. No woman when she's been that in love and that, and wants to get rid and
start from scratch if she, if she thinks there's any hope.
Right.
So she'll kind of tell herself, and I think she's like, oh my God, he's coming.
This is going to be fun.
This is going to be fun.
Right.
Something's going to happen.
This is what will break them up,
if they don't get engaged in May.
Okay, so.
Why May?
Is that what they're saying?
Because Diavolo Cody was on and she believes it's May
because her tour is in Paris and she thinks he's basic
and would ask her in Paris.
Oh, not a bad angle.
Totally great angle.
So I said, I'm gonna take your angle,
but I'll give you credit.
Yeah.
That's what writers do to other writers.
They don't just steal.
Yes, of course.
Yeah.
The Oscar winner in me.
Okay, so anyway, so I think that
something's gonna happen at his show.
He's gonna bring too many people in the green room.
Oh, that's a bad one.
He's gonna say I wanna come out.
He's gonna wanna try to do more singing.
Now if that doesn't happen and they go get married, my next fear is that they have a
couple kids, that's not a fear of mine, have a couple kids.
Things died down, things died down.
And then whatever version of a talk show is, five years from now, she has something like
that. Right. But it's with him.
Oh, well, that's way down the line.
That's terrifying.
That can never happen.
Or they start doing any kind of songs together.
That never.
She's too smart for that.
I don't think she'd ever go down that road.
I don't think so.
But a lot of people like to please their man.
As someone who's been married a long time. When I say this about this relationship,
I'll say two things about this relationship.
A, I was wrong about it.
I thought it was gonna be short lived
and I thought it was more hype for whatever.
Okay.
That was just hype.
So I think there is something real about it.
I do believe that.
I also think that, it's strange to me
that nobody's really mentioning how short.
Like we're all like, they're gonna get married.
And I'm like, hey, everybody,
they've been going after three months.
Or something, not even that long.
Everybody on earth.
Maybe a little longer than that.
Everybody on earth, especially Tessa Ressa, would tell you,
you gotta go through a whole year.
That's what I'm saying.
At least one year, go through holidays.
Right. Go through a distance of some sort. At least one year, go through holidays,
go through a distance of some sort.
Someone had to go work, someone had to da-da-da.
The amount of COVID breakups,
that being one of the Tesla, the COVID thing.
So this is not COVID,
but like there's all these little factors,
you know, and also like the football player
that, you know, no longer plays.
Like, you know, like if, but
she's also on a timeline in that she's like 33.
And she's probably itching to like wrap up this for a while, at least pop out one kid.
And I think she wants to be married when she does that.
So there you go.
I think there can be an effect.
I don't know if they've done it yet, but I think of a good test and a strong test for
any relationship is a long car ride, four or five hour car ride. You'll learn a
lot in a car ride. You learn about sneezing, like how loud, you know, just
different things like that. Also the kids today have it easier because they
have GPS. I mean, the back of my in our parents day with screaming out my mother
and the map, the missing an off ramp. parents' day with screaming out my mother, the map,
the missing and off ramp.
Yeah, we just had nothing.
What time, my mom?
They were so lost.
And she went into a place to ask for directions.
And then she came out and she goes,
oh, can you just tell my husband?
And the guy came out and he had like,
I don't know, he had like his beach and pentameter or something
and could not, and she just at that point was just like,
I'm just gonna play a prank on your father
because like we're never gonna find out where we're going.
And you know, my dad's like, oh, like trying to be polite.
Then I'm like, God, Derek.
Like I just, yeah, yeah.
And they lasted, but-
They lasted, but I'm saying that you could learn a lot from a from a five hour car ride
Yeah, I think they should take a car ride and then see how how rosy it all is when it
We're on a car ride back from mammoth to LA and I've talked about it
It was when Peter got McKinsey tickets to Ed Ed Sheeran
Mm-hmm for Christmas and then realized that she just didn't go in June.
He went on Facebook, saw all the other dads
whose daughters went and all the other people posting.
And she didn't tell him that she wasn't gonna go
because Peter could have sold those tickets.
Are you fucking kidding me?
Stop hub.
We were absolutely hostages,
Brandon Drake and I, for five hours about him herping on
and me trying to be like,
she never asked for the tickets, Peter.
Don't give someone an experience as a gift
unless they have specifically asked for it.
Don't give me a round trip to a country
that I've never asked to go to.
I don't want it.
But you think it's, that sounds nice.
I did it to my wife.
I got her tickets to Barry Matalo.
Yeah, that's right.
Barry Matalo at the forum.
She was like, what is this?
I said, this is Barry Matalo.
I love him.
Therefore, I'd like to share that with you.
My wife, she was mortified.
Did she go?
Yeah, oh, she went.
Did she like it when she left?
Right up front. She was like, I don't, who is this whole man?
Did she like it in the end?
No, no, well, she liked Copacabana.
Be honest.
She knew that one.
Yeah. And otherwise, she was like, this is ludicrous, but I loved it.
I loved it.
And she was...
Well, we are still traumatized. I would like to file a lawsuit against Ed Sheeran personally.
Okay. Because that was five hours that we'll never get trauma. I would like to file a lawsuit against Ed Sheeran personally. Okay.
Because that was five hours that we'll never get back. I recorded it.
Yeah.
And I recently found it and played it and we were rolling laughing.
Oh my God, that's funny.
Laughing. Yeah.
Laughing. Like you just see my leg.
Yeah.
And I'm just like, it's just like, no, I don't understand.
Yeah.
You know, you do something nice for someone. Why wouldn't she tell us? I'm like
Because we've never gone through this before now. She knows if she gets something and she's not going to go to a concert
To tell them herself or give them back to the the person you get, but you didn't know anytime you get mad at your kid
You can't get mad at them for certain things if you never taught him what to do in this scenario
What to do when the car, when this happens with the car,
have we gone through and said what to do, what not to do?
And if I have not taught them that lesson,
I cannot be mad that they didn't know what to do.
And also giving the concert tickets to somebody,
that's like giving them like this, this is a big night.
You gotta get out, you gotta go out, you gotta get ready.
That's the thing, she couldn't find anybody that wanted,
she was in college.
She couldn't find anyone that wanted to go with her from Long Beach State to the Donner
Stadium.
Right.
And she wasn't that into it.
And so she was just like, fuck it.
It's not costing me anything.
She didn't think about it.
She just stayed in her dorm.
She wasn't doing heroin.
She wasn't doing anything bad.
She just didn't go to the fucking concert.
Okay.
Oh boy.
All right.
Let's talk about the music. the fucking concert. Okay. Oh boy.
All right, let's talk traitors.
I mean, Phaedra, I don't know if she's going to be nominated for an Emmy, but she should. She is the OG trader.
She's the only one left, but she brings on Kate and Kate had played the previous
season. So she's funny and she's dry and the two of them together.
They decide to kill Kevin because they feel like he's,
won't, by killing him, it's not too suspicious.
It's not like killing Peter, Peter the pilot,
but he is one of the people
that Peter has kind of formed an alliance with.
So they want to break up that alliance.
So they come to breakfast and they all have to act surprised.
Oh, poor Kevin, he's gone.
So everyone's kind of looking around and Peter's like,
he's kind of feeling like, oh shit,
things are not going great for me.
So they go out to do their next challenge,
which is they have these like little stained glass windows
with all their names and they have to do like a bow and arrow
kind of a shooting thing.
And it's really hard, even for like athletic people.
It's like, are you good at this or not?
So they're trying to hit each other's squares
with their names on it and whoever's the last one standing
gets the shield and cannot be kicked out
at the round table.
So they're doing all that and
Phaedra is going on and she's like,
I'm gonna pick this person because I don't think
they need the shield.
And then she says, oh wait, I realize if you just go up
or like to the right or to the left,
it's really easy after someone failed to go through
to like learn, okay, now I know exactly
if I just turn a little to the left,
I'm gonna be able to hit this one. Well, after she does that, and they realize that's a pattern
that works, she goes out of her way and goes like down and around to kill, to break the glass of
Trichelle. So then they're like, wait a minute, that makes us think Phadra is a traitor again,
because why, she wasn't just doing it to like get the most out,
she was doing a strategic thing to make sure
that Trichelle doesn't have the shield,
because maybe she wants to get rid of Trichelle,
because Trichelle's a really good player
and part of the Peter plan.
So they get back and again, Peter is like,
I know it's Phaedra, I know it's Phaedra,
no one's really suspecting Kate at all. And Phaedra knows that, so she is like, I know it's fader. I know it's fader. No one's really suspecting Kate at all and
Fader knows that so she's like, I'm telling you guys. I think it's Peter
I think Peter is the one and
Just trying to put it out there and people like mmm. Maybe maybe he is that is weird
They do think this other girl Sandra might be a
Trader as well, but it doesn't happen much they get they get around the round table and John, who's the English guy from Parliament, he
goes straight in for Phaedra and he's like, I think it's you for all these reasons.
And he just lays it out on the line and she's like, really?
You think so?
And she comes back and that is where I'm like, she is so great.
And then she turns around and she's like, I think it's Peter.
I think it's Peter because he has always
having these secret meetings with everybody
and he is telling people not to enter a room
and have private conversations.
And he's like, well, that's what we're supposed to do
when you're playing the game.
She's like, yeah, when you're playing the game
and you're a trader.
So he is like, look, I have all the evidence
of why I'm not a trader, but she has convinced
her group of people enough.
And oh, and there is this moment where they're like, do we really have a Bravo Alliance?
And MJ's like, look, my eyes are open.
I don't have a Bravo Alliance with Fader or anything.
Comes down to four people for, I think it's half and half.
And the deciding vote, half are for Phaedra,
half are for Peter to kick that person out.
Who they think they're both the traders.
And it comes down to MJ from Shaw's of Sunset.
She is to give the final vote.
And that is where we leave off.

Also this kid, he's a junior. Yeah.
And he started posting about her private jet and where it's going and tracking her jet.
Yeah.
She sent him her people sent her a hemisees and to assist.
Which I agree with.
Yes, but then legally he's not doing anything wrong.
I agree that morally and socially, dude, you're a weirdo.
And there's a lot of things that could go wrong with this.
Think about not just her,
think about like crazy teenage fans
that maybe like sneak onto the runway or something.
Because they're that crazy and then possibly get hurt.
That is why I think you shouldn't be doing it.
But I guess this is like a way it's public record
if you want it and therefore he's not really breaking the law.
And now are the Swifties going,
they must be killing this kid.
I mean, they got his name and his picture.
Don't they go after everybody, the Swifties?
I mean, what do they really do?
I have never heard about Swifties showing up
at someone's house.
They just do this right, many things about.
But they attack, you know, they're young girls,
so they attack things that you are really sensitive about.
They'll be like, you have small.
Well, I guess Taylor's new album is about the last boy
for before Travis.
And he's like getting, he's prepared.
It's like, it's like getting going to Obama's shelter.
I guess it's turned off comments on Instagram.
He's getting all prepared for what is going to happen
with this song, Dead Poet Society or whatever it's called.
Yeah.
Okay.
Do you know the latest with Megan Markle,
your former co-worker?
Yeah, for a co-worker, yes.
Well, they're trying to make life work, okay?
For one thing, they don't like to spend their own money
and people are upset that they go on
everyone else's private jet.
I don't know why you're upset.
If you have a friend with a private jet
and they're impressed with you
and they wanna say hop on or lend it to you
because you're the prince and princess or whatever,
don't you who don't have access
to a private jet be mad that they're moochers.
If the people are gonna let the mooch, let the mooch,
can you blame them?
So there's that and now they're going back
to using the Sussex name which they're not supposed to use.
They're supposed to use whatever Prince Philip's last name is
which I don't even know what it is.
Cause that is Charles dad, which is so like...
Right.
It's like my kids, if they wanted to live in the palace of McDonald land, they would
be called the air and the spare, McDonald, Prince of McDonald land and Prince of McDonald
Lee or whatever.
But then if they married a couple of bitches and I cut them out,
they just would have to be Brandon and Drake Tobias.
That's it.
But they're going back to the Sussex
and they're putting it on their website and everything.
And they're like, oh my God, the queen would be angry
and Philip would be angry.
And, you know, but look,
she just got another podcast deal.
Yeah, over at the Tangerine or something.
Lemonada.
Lemonada, yeah.
Yeah.
And here's the thing.
What I already gave my prediction
what I think the show will be.
It is not gonna be me talking to amazing women
because nobody cared.
Nobody cared?
No, that's what I, exactly.
Nobody cares about-
It is going to be-
Somebody bringing rice to a country, you know,
because they need it.
And then they talk about that to Gail or Oprah or somebody. I give her 10 episodes.
10 episodes before she starts referencing housewives or like a Vanderpump Rules or some type of
pop culture, something. They're going to be like, let's get your type of pop culture, something.
They're gonna be like, let's get your take on pop culture.
They're gonna do something that's light.
It's gonna start out not as hard,
but it is gonna be like a fitness girl.
How to get your body body back.
It's gonna be stuff like that.
And then it's gonna be eventually like,
hey, you gotta talk about stars or something.
She's also in a tricky situation because, I mean, she's just so under a microscope that
she can't say anything mean or anything about anybody.
So that's tough.
And I mean, I'm not kidding when I say this and I'm half kidding kind of, but honestly,
as a next co-worker of hers who worked in a restaurant of unfolded napkins and rolled
silver with her,
she should have me as a guest.
It would make her look like she's normal.
It would make her look-
So right.
Yes, exactly.
Like we talk about the days of-
Lemonada producer who's, I'm sure listening to you,
she's two part now.
The days of working in a restaurant together,
on Sunset Bowl.
Remember when she did that thing with Oprah?
All anyone talked about was she said,
I worked at Humphrey Yogarts.
That was the most, the one clip people took
from that interview.
And you guys know I worked at Hong Nong's.
Yeah, you did?
Yes, I did.
On Ventura, in right, in Tarzana.
Yeah.
In a square right by your house.
Okay, that's where I am.
Don't tell people.
I live, don't be.
My arm would.
Yeah, I always think about that
when I get the ice cream on.
Swiss Almond Fudge, hardest ice cream to My arm would. Yeah, I always think about that when I get the ice cream. Swiss almond fudge, hardest.
Yeah.
Ice cream to scoop.
Yeah.
And if somebody came in saying, I would like you to pack it.
It was a real classy thing if you went to Haganah's
and said, I want you to fresh pack me a quart.
Yeah.
Because I think back then you couldn't buy it in the stores.
It was like a real thing, Haganah's was like the classy.
Yeah.
And some old people would come in and be like,
$1.25 a scope.
What the fuck is this?
We're going over the thrifties, you know?
And, but I would be like, if they asked for,
I'm gonna die.
I'm going to die.
I'd be like sweating.
Yeah, that's a tough one.
I know.
It is sweat.
But yeah, that whole thing of...
Have me on.
We'll talk about rolling silverware. It'll make you look normal. It'll bring you down to earth. It is sweat, but yeah, that whole thing of... Have me on, we'll talk about rolling silverware,
it'll make you look normal.
Oh yeah.
It'll bring you down to earth, it'll be cute.
And I'll be happy to do it.
I won't, I'm not gonna take any cheap shots.
I think it's a great, okay, hold on.
Thank you.
You're welcome, Megan Merkel.
I won't wear my hat.
This is what she needs to do.
Okay.
I don't know if her ego is low enough for it.
I don't know if she's hit the new Megan Merkel,
like I'm the new Heather.
Humble, humble.
Humble, like, hey, I was ugly, I get it.
Okay, but if she does a series of like, who is Megan?
Because so many people have like,
but see, I don't think she will.
Because there are so many things that she's fubbed on
and I don't think she will. Okay. Because there are so many things that she's fubbed on and I don't think she wants people
fact checking.
But if she really does have a teacher that adored her in high school, things like that.
Yeah.
How about some fun stories and some memories of me?
Let me see if I remember it.
If we did that where we start to forget all the pretentious shit that she's done for the
last five years.
And we started to just like her as a cool mom.
Which I think that she has that ability I think.
Then from there, she gets her authenticity back.
We start to like her and as a pretty fashionable,
well-spoken, educated mom,
she will be able to do whatever she wants.
She'll be able to sell shit, she'll be able to do, she'll be able to do whatever she wants. She'll be able to just sell shit
She'll be able to do she'll have a design show whatever she wants to do once she regains
Like America liking her as like self deprecating about like the acting days the suitcase
You know the deal or no deal suitcase
Yeah, she wasn't authentic about that. When she talked about that she- I'm not saying now, but now you talk about
going on auditions.
She had to go back.
She auditioned a million things before suing,
things like that.
You said there was an article that we were gonna talk about.
And I saw it too, how they were saying actors now
are really struggling since the strike is over,
but there's like no real pilot season.
This always used to be traditionally.
The spring time was the pilot time.
Because there were three networks
and they were all- There were three networks. Everything was coming out. Because there were three networks and they were all
everything was coming out in the fall.
Right, and they would choose which ones
are gonna film in April.
They would choose that in January.
So February, March is when you would try to book a pilot
and you know, Leah Remini would have five to choose from
and oh my God and you know, and oh geez.
And then you would shoot that in like April or May or
something and then they would review them all and by early July or June they would decide this is
the fall lineup. That was it but now with all the different streamers everything or isn't really like
a traditional pilot season. Oh yeah so I guess and I guess there's not enough, there's not many roles there. I mean, which I don't know how, I feel like there's more TV shows than there's ever been, but
I guess there's not a lot of recurring parts on these things or whatever. So yeah, having it,
like, I'm just so happy I'm not in that world anymore. Like if I had to be counting on an audition
or a part, oh, what a nightmare.
I mean, that got it. I get so nervous.
Yeah.
Trying to find the parking.
Oh, God, that was the worst.
I just thought this was a very funny headline
from Daily Mail.
Exclusive, how Kanye's marriage to Bianca
was saved after hanging on by a thread.
And the photos they choose are him with the hockey mask
and then also him with a other mask on his face,
leather jacket, gloves, her dress and her weird outfit.
And I'm like hanging by a thread.
I don't even really care about these people anymore.
I've said what I've said.
I think she's in on it.
I think she's getting paid monthly to be with him.
I think it's something like that too.
The guy who played Jason, the actor who played Jason Vorhees
in the Friday the 13th movie said his mask does not fit right.
Yes, he did.
And he said he'll give him, he has a better one.
That'll fit him better.
I had a Juicy Skipper that said,
a lot of people think it's performance art.
That's what I said.
Like he's, where she, he's kind of mocking her.
But of Juicy Skipper was watching
40 year old Ver old virgin the other day
Yeah, and there's a scene in the movie where the girl pops out of the bed and she puts the exact same purple
Pillow on her to cover her body. Oh really and I swear to God
He must have seen that movie recently and just because the purple pillow is exactly the same
color purple the exact same size. But what's with the new teeth? He's got like a toaster in his
mouth now. It's just a titanium. He has titanium but they're not shaped teeth. And then also he
had some weird things. Yeah like a big blister on his lip or something. Yeah, he had a blister like
it didn't look like herpes. It didn't look like a piercing. It just looked like something weird
And then of course people think that it's not even him. Yeah, cuz he has the
Skavitch yeah somewhere I mean
Those teams even will interview him and sit there and I mean they don't crack a smile when he's screaming at them through the
Sock or whatever's on his face. I mean. You're like, how could you not be laughing? I know how could you not laugh at this, but whatever.
I mean, it's just, who knows.
Okay, you hear about this fish.
It was in aquarium.
Mm-hmm.
What kind of fish is that?
I think it's a stingray.
A red stingray? Stingray.
She got knocked up.
Yeah, pregnant.
With no stingray in sight.
There is a shark there, like a little small shark.
And they found shark bites on her
for when he tried to go down on her, yes.
And no, they say that's what sharks made,
I guess when they made, they bite you.
You know, some people do that.
I mean, when I hear about how like,
everybody's having sex now and they have to be choked and bit.
And, oh, sounds awful.
Yeah.
There's that song, I don't wanna choke you baby, but I don't know.
I listened to, when I'm with Brandon,
I have to hear all the songs.
That is like the Hot Today, the ones that are-
That are not censored for Kiss I Fem.
Oh, is that right?
At every time I go, oh, oh, Peter,
she's like, have you heard you speak?
Like shut up, Bob, and I go, okay, you're right, I guess so.
What about that one that goes, you didn't get a shit, you didn't even a fart? Do you know that one? No, shut up, Bob. And I go, okay, you're right. I guess so. What about that one that goes,
you didn't get a shit, you didn't even a fart.
Do you know that one?
No, that's kind of funny though.
Yeah.
You didn't get a shit, but you didn't even a fart.
That's a big hit right now.
By the way.
That girl with the red hair was with Taylor Swift at Super Bowl.
Apparently she did some devil sign at the game.
What?
How dare she?
She went like, wait, she went like this or something.
Oh, yeah.
I don't know what that means.
No, I don't do it right now.
I don't know what that means.
Yeah, I feel like she was all of us at the Super Bowl.
Because it didn't look like she knew anything about football
just by looking, seeing the reactions of her.
And I feel like also
it's one of those things where Taylor Swift called and she probably had the best plans,
like do nothing on Zootball Sunday. And she went to Taylor Swift like, come on,
God, she's, oh, I gotta go to Taylor Swift. It's a whole ordeal now. And she just had to go.
We've all had gotten that phone call, you know, usually it's an Ed Sheeran concert.
Something I know I gotta do there.
There's times where I've said no and I do regret it.
Yeah.
There's times very rarely,
I know you think I've never turned down anything.
I can't believe you've ever turned down anything.
Okay, I'll tell you one time I turned down something that.
Yeah, anything I've asked you to do.
That one brunch.
Yes, it was lovely. That's brunch. Yes, it was lovely.
That's it.
Okay, that's true.
But let me get my phone.
No, towards the end of Chelsea lately,
she was performing at the forum
and we could all go if we wanted.
Tell us what?
No, Chelsea.
Oh, Chelsea, yes.
And we could all go if we wanted.
I went.
And I just was so,
it just hit me on a weekend thing,
hit me on like that week. Hit me in like that week.
And just the thought of going all the way
from Woodland Hills to the Forum.
I don't know why, I just said it was like,
I'm just not, I'm gonna pass.
So dumb of me.
Like every Hollywood star was there.
It was like the last party, the last shebang.
It was a good one.
Do you think I don't know that?
I just have regrets from eight years later.
I remember I brought some girl and I got a weird swinger vibe
from people that night where they were like...
Down to swing?
Yeah, they were like asking me like,
what's her deal? She's not your girlfriend.
I was like, no.
And it was, yeah, I was getting a...
You probably know the people I'm talking about.
But I definitely got a swinger vibe.
Oh, you definitely know them, but I'm not gonna say their names,
but I'll tell you after the show.
But I definitely got a swing or vibe from them
that night with this girl.
Everyone loves receiving gifts,
especially when it's from a loved one,
you're like, oh, it's a thought that counts,
but you know what's sometimes even better?
Shopping for yourself and getting exactly what you want,
especially when it comes to fabulous jewelry.
That's why I love BlueNile.com.
They offer thousands of independently graded diamonds and fine jewelry at prices significantly
below traditional retail. So of course, we love that. So whether you're looking for something for
yourself or you want to do a special gift, I'm looking for something for my sister. You can
create something. I also love that there's a total piece of mine
with every purchase because with a 30 day return
makes it so easy.
Also, diamond priced match guarantee.
So you can't beat that.
Also, if you have any questions,
the Blue Nile jewelry experts are on hand day and night
via phone to chat.
So if you have a question about what makes one diamond
different, maybe a different shape or suggestion for a gift, maybe this is my budget. What do you suggest? They're more of a,
you know, rose gold person, whatever. They can really put great ideas together and to get you
the best gift for someone or for yourself. Seriously, you can't beat the ease of convenience
of shopping Blue Nile, which makes sense. since they're the original online jeweler since 1999. Go to bluenile.com to find the perfect
piece today. That's bluenile.com. Blue Nile.com.
Well watch out who you publicly good thing you didn't say their name point out about
being swingers. Because this New York City teacher bizarrely bragged about sex lives of swinging parents.
So she went on social media and she was like,
I have the coolest parents at my school, they're swingers.
And people were like, wait a minute,
like we clearly know what school you're at
and why does that make them cool if they're sort of,
but again, like I really do think in this day and age
where not only does everyone have social media,
but everyone has a podcast,
you think just because you're not saying the person's name
or you're not showing your child on, you know.
But to talk about your kid and the kid's school and stuff,
like you're kind of fucking it up for your kid.
I know.
And if you're the teacher,
you're fucking it up for those people.
But like, yeah, you're screwing it up for your kid. Cause if you're like teacher, you're fucking up for those people. But like, yeah, you're screwing up for your kid.
Cause if you're like, go to a kid, you know,
I don't know, it's just,
you got to be careful about the swinging.
But I mean, I don't know if she got fired or what,
but she did.
Speaking of people that got fired from being teachers,
wait, I'm going to skip over to this one.
Oh, Rachel Dolezal, remember her?
So Rachel Dolezal, how do you say her last name?
Dolezal?
Dolezal. Dolezal. Do all yeah, she was the famous girl who
Said what was hired at the NAACP yeah of a certain chapter
She was like a black as black woman as president. Yeah, and I can't remember how it was discovered
Well, she recently discovered how Hilaria was discovered of not really being Spanish, Hilaria Baldwin.
But it was discovered that, I want to say her parents told on her, her parents were
like, she's not black.
And there was pictures on Facebook where she's obviously white.
And it all came out that like her, everybody in her family was white, there was not one
ounce of black in her, but she was like, identify as black. She did her hair
like an African-American style, permanent braided, whatever, probably used a lot of self-tanner.
And she just looks like she looked like she was mixed. She did. Yeah.
And so anyway, after that whole scandal, there was a documentary, she still gets hired because I guess she
had the credentials to be hired as a teacher. Right. In a different state.
I want to say Tucson, Arizona.
Yeah.
But, you know, you don't make a lot as a teacher.
So like a lot of teachers and nurses and everybody else, they get an only fancy account.
And because of that, they're like, that goes against our morals.
So they fired her for that.
Yeah.
I just couldn't believe someone hired her in the first.
After that scandal, would I really want this person like, I don't know, but I guess if you're educated,
you need someone to teach the class.
You need someone to teach the stuff.
What's she doing?
I feel like only fans, when you say only fans,
there are sexual things on only fans.
There's also just people just sitting there cooking.
She said, I wish someone would buy my art.
So she had art on there,
but I think she also had sexy stuff.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
Cause I know some people just-
Maybe her like in lingerie painting or something.
Oh, really?
I don't know.
All right. I'm just curious.
Cause I mean, you could do full on-
Wasn't it you who told me that your brother follows somebody
that is in a bikini that she wears?
She works on cars.
Yeah.
He was upset about it cause he was spending good money.
And what happened?
She wasn't just in a bikini.
He thought he was going gonna see her working on cars
and more like fully nude.
Oh.
He liked both things.
He liked her nude and he liked car work.
And he, can you imagine the day he realized,
wait, I could see both of these things together
in one video.
It's like a Reese's Cup.
You got your chocolate, I bought peanut butter.
Peanut butter, my chocolate.
Exactly.
So he was very excited about it.
Spent 10 bucks a month, whatever it was.
And, you know, he got hoodwinked by the fact that she just, she was really, I
don't know if she was actually working on the cars or just pretending, but she
wasn't even in the nude bikini.
Amazing.
Tinder and hinge are deliberately turning users into swiping addicts.
People are suing them, saying like, it's made me insane because there's something in it that makes you go crazy.
But I'm like, so does Instagram and TikTok.
What are you just saying?
It's made everybody insane.
Just remove it.
We're all insane from it.
This girl got arrested.
This is like not a new story, but I just found it.
And it was from, it's from Insight History.
A woman got arrested after texting a guy 159,000 times after their first date.
Yeah.
Did you hear about this Netflix doc
called stalker lover killer or lover stalker killer?
No.
Well, unfortunately, I started to watch it.
I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I'm sorry, spoiler alert,
it's been out for a week and a half.
Of course, when I start watching any true crime,
it's so rare that
I don't know a juicy story. It's evolved passion. And of course, I figured it out within
the first 10 minutes. But this guy, I'll just say this so you can still enjoy it. So this
guy who is a mechanic as well meets this woman, he's divorced with a kid. And then it doesn't
really work out with her. He meets another woman.
And then that woman immediately starts texting him,
acting crazy, whatever.
Then she goes off the grid, but she haunts him forever.
Like it's haunting him for years
and doing all these weird things.
Turns out it was never that woman.
It was the original woman.
Oh.
Well, I did just for you.
The original woman.
But the whole point is
like the obsessive
texting after you meet somebody on like what is the
Protocol I think it must be so hard. I have a friend who's back into dating. Oh, yeah went on a date
Like the guy. Okay. Had a good date
He wrote her and said,
I had a really good time tonight.
You know, look forward to seeing you again soon. So she wrote back, agree, something like,
something that she wrote like looking forward
to getting together soon.
Okay.
Well, I mean, now there's nothing more she can do, right?
No, that's it.
You have to put it in the guy's hands.
Yeah.
He put out that he did want to, she confirmed I would too.
Is that enough of an indication as a man, if you like her?
Yes, exactly.
You don't need more than that, correct?
No, that's it.
That's all you need.
So that's what the women, that's what women need to hear.
All they need is they need to make the follow-up text.
You need to make it clear, as short as possible,
about clear that you are down to do something again
if they so choose.
You should not then, if you don't hear from them
in two days, go, hey, I was wondering,
what's your week looking like?
No.
I mean, it's as simple as that book from years ago.
And I'm not that into you.
I mean-
And the rules too.
Yeah, right.
You gotta leave it in the guys hands.
Yeah, the guy, if they're into you,
they'll let you know.
If they're not.
When you had someone then, okay,
so you wanted to date this back of your single days.
Oh my God, the heaven.
It's so much fun.
Especially when these came out, these swipey things.
I was still around as single during those days,
early on, the early days.
And you were still a little bit famous.
I know, you didn't think, my pictures were all just me
with like you, Chelsea Handler, like that's all I had.
Nothing makes me happier than when a gay guy sends me
a photo or tells me,
because you're not supposed to screen grab stuff, that someone on one of the gay sites.
As a picture with you?
Mm-hmm.
Oh, that's a good one.
As their cred, as their celebrity photo.
And I'm like, you need to date that man.
That's a good one.
That means to be your husband.
Wow.
Yeah.
Yeah, but it was, those are fun times, you know.
I mean, thank God I don't have to go through that anymore.
And I hope I never do it again.
Like, when were there times that you, has there ever been a time?
Yeah.
Okay?
Where you liked a girl, it was fine.
You weren't totally feeling it.
You did the polite, let's get together, whatever.
But then the next morning, maybe there was someone else that popped up on your phone or, you know.
So you don't reach out again, but then she does.
Yeah.
Oh, a lot.
Okay, but.
Yeah.
What, okay, so let's get into the guys brain.
So do you go out with them again
and have you ever then gone,
thank God she texted me because had she not,
I would have blown her off.
And because she texted me, we went out
and then we dated for three months.
And it was bad at the second time, yeah.
I can't think of an incident where that happened.
It's just because it doesn't happen.
No, it doesn't happen, no.
I think it's really sad to spell it out for the ladies.
I think you either intuit or you're not.
I think a girl can convince herself.
Yeah.
A girl can convince herself, a girl can see other qualities,
a girl can, I think a girl can make herself attracted
and see other attractive qualities to the guy
if he's really caring, if he has some money,
if he does something really nice for her.
That can be a real turn on, a guy who comes and fixes your car
or something. Clean sheets, a clean house. That can be a real turn on a guy who comes and like fixes your car or you know
Something clean sheets a clean house either that's pulled down a whole cabinet himself. Oh
And started like redoing stuff in his condo
What for you or just because himself but by I heard my mother in my head find a guy that can fix a few things. Your father's awful. Oh, okay, so yeah. So things like that, protective things.
Wait, did he pull down the cabinet
but did he put it back up?
Yes, and he pulled it down.
He pulled it down and realized the place looked better open.
He didn't need the cabinet.
And then I could see that he could do shit.
Okay.
And I'm just saying, I think you could be like,
oh, about this guy.
And then God forbid you have a flat tire or something.
And he like shows up and is like cool about it
and classy and like, no, follow me.
And women will say those are the things
that like made them switch and fall in love.
But I feel like guys, it's much more cut and dry.
Yeah, yeah.
I agree with you.
I agree with you.
And you know what, I think we're screwed
because we grew up watching all these movies,
these romantic love stories,
that 95% of them were written by men
that basically were just good writers for learning to formula.
And you'd watch it and you're like,
but in this movie, this is what really made the guy fall.
It's just like, it's just made up people.
We need to have more movies where it's just about real couples
and how they fell in love and like real stories
about how real couples fell in love
and then follow those leads.
The other night we were watching,
it was on TV as whatever.
And we started watching it, Pretty Woman.
And it's so funny. I mean, everyone loves that movie. Yeah, watching it, Pretty Woman. And it's so funny.
I mean, everyone loves that movie.
Yeah, I can't get enough, but it's so wrong.
Well, I know, Richard gives, if you look at it,
we guys just a prick.
And there's a couple of times
when we shushed her quite a few times.
Well, she's a hooker.
Shh, shh.
Well, I mean, you're bringing a girl
who's on the streets sucking dirty dicks every night.
Right.
Who's only supposed to be like 21 right and her life was over
She left Georgia to come to LA
Her mom said she was always she was a bum finder a bum within five yards. She finds it a bum your 21
What kind of life did you live?
I mean obviously it's just different times. Yeah, just different times
You know
But it's again you wanted to believe that you could be from nothing
Right and a fabulous guy like you could turn a guy to just fall in love with your brain because here you are
So it's a brilliant script written by a man. It's a brilliant script. Mm-hmm now I
Just before you know this I just watched a great movie the other day with Brandon. Okay
I don't know if it popped up for Black History Month
or what, but it popped up and I go,
oh my God, please, we have to watch this movie.
American Fiction.
No, it was, I've not seen that one I want to.
Pretty good.
No, Boys in the Hood, my God.
Oh, it's great.
That, that movie is so fucking good.
Yeah.
The acting.
And I was like, this is what made Cuba a star.
I mean, crying like everything.
And we were just riveted.
And I'm like, if you have not watched that,
and they talk about gentrification,
and this was like-
That scene with Lawrence Fishparts,
and that neighborhood is now gentrified.
I know.
And I'm like, I never understood,
like I understood now what it is,
but I didn't understand then.
And I think even when I saw that movie,
that part didn't click to me like it does now.
And-
John Singleton, he wrote it.
Brilliant, just so brilliant.
Anyway, so, okay, so Larissa Pippen went,
do you know the story behind this?
She was at a comedy club.
She broke up with Marcus Jordan,
not says not his name, what is his name? Marcus Jordan, yeah.
Yeah.
Who is, what's his name?
Jordan's son.
Michael Jordan's son.
Michael Jordan's son.
And I was just gonna say, you know.
She's Scottie Pippin's ex-wife.
Right.
Who played with Michael Jordan on the Chicago Bulls.
They of course won a bunch of championships,
but they also have a contentious relationship.
I'm just gonna call him Marcus Jordan's dad.
Yeah, so.
Because I think he's more famous than Michael Jordan now.
Yeah.
So anyway, Greg Wilson, a comedian,
it's him there performing.
I guess it was like an out, he was hired to do
like a roast or something.
It was a roast of somebody.
Oh, okay.
Had a party and they happened to be at the party.
And the joke-
Oh, great PR for everybody involved.
Yeah, and the joke he made was like,
you're the first one to break both
Michael Jordan and Dennis Rodman.
I love it.
Yeah, it's a good joke.
There was another thing, do you know about Donnell Rawlings?
Donnell Rawlings, yeah.
He's a big On Only fan.
And goes ballistic on Corey Hulcombe.
Do you know what he went ballistic over?
Apparently Corey, this was a little bit
of what we were talking about earlier. It was a little bit of what we were talking about earlier it's a little bit of repercussions from the cat Williams
interview yes on apparently cat Williams said if you've done like two or
three black comedy crimes yes yes so it's something like that Corey Holcomb's
big comic and he was on the last comic standing but he's huge in the black
comedy world he sells out everywhere. People love him. Yeah, I know.
Anyway, he, I guess, Cat Williams said that if you've done more than three movies in Hollywood,
you've sucked a dick or something.
That's what he said on the Janet Trump thing.
I didn't watch the whole three hours, but, and I guess, Don L. Rawlings was in the audience
of that show and he said, Hey, Corey, I've done more than three movies in Hollywood.
I never sucked to Dick or something.
But they, apparently Corey Holcomb doesn't like Dave Chappelle.
He's Dave Chappelle's guy, Donnell Rawlings.
And there was a contention there.
Some people are saying Donnell Rawlings has a special coming out next week
and they loving this.
That's what I'm hearing.
I don't think those things are planned though.
I don't think it's planned.
No.
You know, I don't know how. I planned though. I don't think it's planned. No.
You know, I don't know how.
I think there's benefit from sometimes feuds and stuff,
but I mean, people have thought like,
I've planned feuds, what I've had is like feuds.
I've never planned any feud for,
I wish, I wish that when I've had problems with people
that it was planned and we all both benefited,
it never has been.
So I'm like, I don't think it's that,
but yeah, well, that's kind of good.
Also, I feel like there's a lot of cameras
in comedy clubs these days.
Like every two minutes there's another.
I guess, I mean, I know that I think at the,
at Denver Comedy Works.
They have the thing that actually Dave Chappelle started,
which is you put in a little sack.
It's so great, you guys.
Put in a little sack, you keep your phone,
because I know people have to put in their phone.
So you can put it on vibrate.
So if your nanny is vibrating you,
then by all means get up and go and check.
You're not gonna miss an emergency call,
but you're not gonna be able to look at your phone,
you're not gonna start being able to scroll
through Instagram, be bored, and you're not gonna be able to look at your phone. You're not gonna start being scroll through Instagram, be bored.
And you're not gonna be able to film the comic.
Yeah.
I think comedy works as the last one to still do it.
And it's so much, it's so nice, again, for the audience around you.
It's about the other people too.
It's not just about the star, but then, you know, but then also I feel like
comics are blowing up with their crowd work.
Yeah.
So those people are probably hiring someone
to film the whole set.
Just film the whole set,
hopefully I'll have a moment that I could grab from.
So much extra work, I just wanna go into the show.
It's all a lot of work.
I have to hire someone in the town.
Okay, Madonna fell.
I watched it and I totally think it was the dancer's fault.
He or she was pulling the chair and then she fell over.
What I've seen from the Madonna concert,
and now again, I think this ruins
wanting to go to the Madonna concert.
I feel like I've seen the whole concert.
Online?
I think I feel like I've seen all of the Adele concert
and all of Madonna's concert.
Up close, the outfits, the, you know.
Still probably a fun show to go to. No, it's still a, the outfits, the, you know.
Still probably a fun show to go to.
No, it's still a really fun show, whatever.
People are so mean, like, don't go.
But coming late, that would bug.
I also read that, oh, you mean starting the show late, yeah.
I also read that Usher, I guess,
fell during the Superbowl performance.
He dattled a trip up up and today he fired the dancer
that tripped him up. That's what I had read just before he came to air. So I mean, a lot of times
it could be a lot of dancers out on, you know, that usher thing, that was a lot of, I mean,
he brought back a rollerblading for a minute. I was, you know, you don't see anybody doing that
anymore. But he did. I sat on my Patreon, you can join at HeatherBertolland.net. I didn't think it was great.
It didn't do anything for me either.
I think there were lots of better ones.
And I think it was too much going on.
Too many different outfits.
There's no cohesiveness.
I don't blame Usher.
I think it was shot poorly.
It was too many closeups.
I started on the ground.
Yeah, I know.
Why is it not starting on a stage?
That's what I thought.
Well, coming out, you gotta do something grand
in the beginning and can't just walk out to some slow song. Listen, as two theater kids. Exactly.
Come out stage left. This is Bryce Dallas Howard. Bryce Dallas Howard. And it's a story and comes
across right here that music. Like this inspirational music as they do this video. And it's her talking and interviewing.
Well, it was ever, you know,
as soon as I was old enough to be on the floor
of whatever casino or something,
I was with my grandmother and my grandmother said,
you know, you have to,
the average actress goes on 64 auditions
before she gets a part.
And, you know, and this whole thing of how hard it is.
And I'm like, okay, she's a really good actress. But her dad is Ron Howard. Yeah. And then I thought
about her whole family. And I also thought about the grandmother. I don't know if the grandmother
was famous too, but at least she was an experienced stage mom. Yeah. If she had her kid, her grandfather, Rance Howard's famous. Oh, he is? Yeah, yeah, yeah. The brother, Cliff, the Ron Howard's brother is pretty famous.
Like they've all been in TV their whole lives.
So again, I've talked about this.
The flex of people that did not struggle wanting to have a flex
that at one point they did struggle is one of my favorite things
that have come out of TikTok and everything for the last year.
Yeah. It's like, just shut up. I know. Yeah.
We don't need the inspirational story from you. Tell a different story.
I'm sure there's other stories about your life that are interesting. I'd rather
hear about how when you were 10 you walked out and Ron Howard had all these
people in the backyard. Those are the stories you want to hear from Nepo babies. Yeah, I want to hear the Henry Winklers
at the barbecue and like they said this or they gave you this advice. Right. And then they said,
look, when I finally went on the audition, yeah, Henry Winkler said, this is how you can cry on
Q. Tell me the secrets. Right. Tell me the secrets that you learned as a Nepo baby. I don't want to
hear that, oh, you didn't get every part you went out on
and therefore, you know, you know,
Tory Spelling's dad didn't know she was auditioning,
she's snunkin', whatever.
I'm not saying she's lying, I'm saying, okay, whatever.
Those stories we've heard.
Come up with something better.
I've been accused of when I was an electrician
in New York City, local three IBW.
Yeah. My father was also local three IBW.
So you were a depot, electro?
Me and my brothers all got at the same time
and people were like, what is going on here?
How did he get three boys into the union at the same time?
That's the ultimate nepotism.
And we were, I mean, people would not talk to us.
Yeah, we were in the union.
Oh, they were mean.
Local three, I didn't last.
They're the worst.
I got into a full on fight about,
that's when I knew I was gonna move to LA
because I was a young kid.
I was like 19 years old.
I didn't know.
Working in the World Trade Center, back when that was there.
As an electrician.
As an electrician.
And then on your breaks you'd dance in the bathroom.
I would.
And say one day.
One day.
Oh, I thought about it.
And then one of the older lecturers is like,
what came first, hydrox or Oreos?
The cookies?
The cookies, yeah.
Oh, I thought this was like hydrox.
I thought it was a couple of questions.
Okay, go on.
They used to be like a knock off Oreo, you remember.
And I was like, oh, I don't know.
I didn't even think, I'm not thinking that much about them.
Like they both seem good.
And he's like, yeah, see, that's the problem
with this union, the dumb kids don't know
what came first, hydroxerorios.
And I was like, I was like, I gotta get out of this.
This is not for me.
Like this guy is really passionate about these cookies.
And he's like a 60 year old man.
And it's like seven o'clock in the morning.
That is so.
And I knew right then I was like,
this is, I gotta go to show, again, in show business.
Okay, I also saw, I don't have passion for cookies.
Do you know where the word nepo comes from?
Nepotism.
No, but the nepotism word comes from.
Oh, no.
Allegedly, I saw this.
Okay, I did not do the research myself,
but it seemed pretty clear that it comes from,
from the word Latin where priests would give their nephews jobs
when they were really their loved children,
that they were having sex outside of being celibate priests,
and they're really their children.
So in order to help their children along,
they would give, but they would say they were their nephews.
And they would get, and so the word nephew and nepothe,
I don't know.
Okay. That makes sense. I guess from the church. Okay.
I mean, honestly, Neppo,
isn't, doesn't everybody get their kid into their business?
You know, I mean,
I have no problem with it. I have no problem,
but don't then try to make that.
No, of course you still have to be good. You know,
I would say this about like Trace Ellis Ross,
who we had our first show job together.
She got jobs after that
and she's been in great in every single one.
But was her journey to get an agent, William Morris,
a hell of a lot easier than mine?
Yes, it was.
But no one's giving you the job if you can't deliver.
But getting to the in front of the people
is where the nepotism helps play.
But Kate Hudson
go on her and she is like a fucking great singer. Yeah. I've heard her sing before. I know. And
they're like, and she's really good. Like a Stevie Nicks good. And then they're like, yeah,
her mom used to sing too. And I'm like, I just wonder if again, she walked down the steps one day
and they're like, this is a little Katy-Poo.
And all the actor, you know, oh, well, let's get her in a movie.
I'm doing something tomorrow.
Then they could see she was cute.
She could act.
She could this and that.
Who knows if had she not been the nepotism baby of an actor, maybe the singing career
would have been the thing that she actually pursued.
Yeah.
I mean, yeah.
But what's great is that she's young and beautiful,
she can be a singer now.
Some people are just talented.
I mean talented at this,
she probably can't put it in air conditioner, you know?
I mean, some people do shit good, some people don't.
Right, not good at everything.
Yeah.
This is, I don't even know the answer to this,
but I just had to talk to you about it.
It said, why Cole Sprouse has not spoken
to the Friends cast since playing David Schwimmer's son?
Because life goes on.
Because why should you?
Yeah.
No.
You were a guest star who sat on his lap
and did a few scenes who came with his mom
and the teacher from the union
to make sure that he was getting an education,
and then you left.
He probably has to work to Lisa Kudrow in three years.
If David Schwimmer kept in touch,
he would be canceled today.
Right, exactly.
This kid would be doing his own podcast.
He was calling me at midnight.
Yeah, Cole would be doing his podcast
about how David Schwimmer and Joey,
used to play hide the ping pong.
I don't wanna fucking know that. No.
They were smart not to keep in touch with this kid.
Yeah.
We're supposed to call them.
How's seventh grade?
Want to get together?
Yeah.
I mean, amazing.
Um, look, a fan made this for me.
Oh, cute.
Barbie.
Barbie.
Yeah.
Comes with the earrings.
That's actually a pretty good likeness.
That you can wear for yourself.
I know.
It's so, I don't know how this was done. I'm going to talk to her. That's actually a pretty good likeness. That you can wear for yourself. I know, it's so, I don't know how this was done.
I'm gonna talk to her, that's a talented little thing.
A woman discovered she was intimate with half siblings
after fertility doctor used his own sperm.
So this is one of those where you go in
and then the ego doctor and then you end up,
but that can happen.
That's why you have to buy the whole bunch.
But yeah, you were telling me about that.
Were there ever a time in your career
where I thought about whacking off?
I thought about that, yes.
Whacking off for scur money.
No, I've never got it.
It's gotten bad.
I've had some low times, but never that low.
Did you ever get blood?
Yes, but not for money.
Like the lowest I ever was was doing those
watching the TV shows before they came out
and giving your, you know, giving your-
Do you remember which one it was about?
I did one.
Oh my God, I saw Survivor, the first ever Survivor.
Oh, you did?
And I get, yeah.
And they-
Okay, so you went to the, like a conference room.
A little conference room.
You got paid what, 50?
100. Oh, well, okay. That's worth it, Kyle. Over in North Hollywood. So you watch it the, like a conference room. A little conference room. You got paid what, 50? 100.
Oh, well, that's worth it.
100 bucks over in North Hollywood.
Yeah, no.
So you watch it with everybody?
Yep.
Okay, and then this is just like when chain D is,
do you, I hope no one was on the other side like chain D is.
Well, they were, and they tell you that too.
They're like, this glass is of, see, you know,
two way or whatever one way.
And so they're on the other side just so you know.
And then they'll let you go around, you know,
I wanted a cross section of people like,
white guy, blah, blah, blah, blah,
older person, younger person, black person,
and I was, I guess, white guy.
How many episodes did you watch?
I watched one, the first survivor,
the back when it was that naked guy.
And I remember like, oh, this is gonna be good.
Like this is a good show.
So you said it, cause you gave it a good review.
Yeah, I gave it a good review. But then I went through and did a bunch.
It's so funny, like I probably did 20 of them
throughout my career for a hundred bucks
and none of them ever went except for survivor.
It's the only one that went.
Otherwise everyone was a shit pilot that went nowhere.
To show you how many things they throw away.
There was very few pilots that I ever went out for
that actually made it.
Yeah, I know.
Like even the pilots I were going out for
were like the bottom of the barrel,
even though they were out like Warner Brothers and stuff.
But the, I once got a tape sent to me
like my parents house, I think it was totally random.
And they're like, can you watch this pilot?
I don't even think they knew I was like in the industry
and tell us what you think. And I was like, yes, watch this pilot? I don't even think they knew I was like in the industry and tell us what you think.
And I was like, yes, I'd love to give my opinion.
So I put in the VHS tape and it's Ralph Monchio.
Oh.
And Andrew Dice Clay.
Oh, okay.
In like a traditional sitcom setting,
three-camera shoot.
And it was brothers or something?
I don't know, it was horrible.
It was so bad and I could not wait to tell the people
what I thought of it, of why I thought it was so lame
and why the story didn't make sense.
And I was one of those people that was just,
you know, being like, well, if he doesn't,
excuse me, you can't get your license that quickly.
You would have to go like, I was always thinking like,
what the, you're the one who keeps the afternoon going longer.
People just want to get out of there.
And it was just me alone and I wasn't getting paid.
Oh, okay. Yeah. Cause there was a lot of,
anyway, free soda too.
That's how they sold me.
He has a bunch of losers doing it.
Have you ever gone out on something that you were like,
I don't care, I didn't get it
cause that's going to be such a bomb.
And then it lasted forever.
Or you blew something off. Say by the bell. I was like, I didn't get it cause that's gonna be such a bomb. And then it lasted forever. Or you blew something off.
Say by the bell.
I was like, I got called back like three times
for say by the bell.
It was like the first audition I ever had.
And so that when you didn't get it, you told yourself,
well, that'll never go anywhere.
I didn't even think about it.
I mean, I just, I was auditioning for Screech.
I just remember just getting called back
and it was in North Hollywood or whatever.
And at the time they had, what's his face to blonde kid?
What's his, he still works and a ton of stuff.
That Ricky Schroeder, no, who is it?
No, it's not Ricky Schroeder.
I forget, I can't think of his name right now.
But anyway, his picture was on the wall.
He had it already been cast and the other ones were still,
I think Mario Lopez was cast too.
And they were looking for Screech.
I mean, looking back on it, look what happened Screech. I mean, look at it. I mean looking back on it
Look what happened to the Dustin Diamond. I mean he's dead
And Warner Brothers to audition for a show called Townies
Which is all these shows that were trying to be like friends, okay? I'm I vaguely remember it was three girls. Yeah, and I
Was sitting waiting and I'm hearing the cast director talk and it's already been cast.
Yeah.
It was Molly Ringwald was the redhead and she goes,
so we have a redhead, a blonde and a brunette. So we have the three and I'm like still going
with the lines and I'm like, yeah, if I had any self-respect, I either tell her about it,
like, hey, I understand it's cast., like I don't need to waste your time.
Is there any guest roles?
Like that's what I would say today.
But instead I was like, what if I,
so I do it, I then go call my agent.
I'm like, will you tell them that I'll dye my hair blonde?
You know, like any, and then she's like,
nobody wants you loser.
Like it was just like, I mean, just like anything
that I could do.
And then the other thing is I went out
for American Idol where the auditions were at Laugh Factory
and it was to be, no, to be one of the co-hosts.
Oh, that went to-
So, and they're like, this is a show
and it's like you gotta kinda rib the people,
like some are gonna be good, some are gonna be bad.
I'm like, what?
And-
There was that other comedian, Ryan Seacrest and- Right, so that's what it was gonna be. So some are gonna be bad, I'm like, what? And- There was that other comedian,
Ryan Seacrest and-
Right, so that's what it was gonna be.
So where they were pairing up people.
Yeah.
Me with a girl, me with a guy,
me with a, you know, to have two hosts.
Brian Dunkelman, that was his name.
And they chose Brian Dunkelman.
But I remember thinking this show
is never going to make it.
You know, look at us now.
We're doing fine after all the bullshit.
Just so you never know, you never know.
I was at a kids birthday party yesterday,
two days ago, Saturday.
It was one of these indoor playgrounds.
And it was night, we're having a nice time.
My daughter's having fun.
And at one point I see a guy come lugging in,
we got a big trunk.
And he's got big funny pants on and a hat.
He's an older man, he's probably 70.
And his hat says, Mr. Silly.
He's got a big trunk.
And he says, oh, he's talking to the dad.
And where can I set up?
He's there to him.
And he says, I'm listening to him say,
he goes, I need a megaphone
or I need the music turned off like these are the rules.
And so no problem, we'll get that all taken care of.
And then he goes into full Mr. Silly, you know?
And I'm watching this going, you know what?
That Mr. Silly didn't come here to be Mr. Silly.
He came here to be Andrew McCarthy, you know?
He flew-
He came here to be Screech!
Yes, I'm saying like he landed in LA to be,
and now he probably did a couple of kids' parties,
like, whatever, make 250 bucks and it's not a bad gig.
But at one point it's a ball pit,
he's performing outside a ball pit.
And the kids, you know, they lose their,
can't wrangle them all the time.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, and he's doing a good job.
My daughter's cracking up.
I can't make my daughter laugh, shit,
Mr. Silly's killing.
My daughter's like dying, laughing at everything he says.
Anyway, but some of the kids are like, that's gotta be the worst because this is four year olds who love everything
you say and it's also nine year olds who are like giving away his tricks. And he's
getting angry. I could see it. As soon as I just, bitch, is giving away all my tricks.
Anyway, then kids are throwing the balls from the ball pit at him and he's like, he can't
break the Mr. Silly character. Right. But he's furious.
He's like, okay, everyone stop throwing the balls.
You know.
Oh my God.
At least I'm not Mr. Silly, you know?
No, you're not.
I never got to here.
I'm not Sean Penn, but I'm not Mr. Silly.
No, you're not.
All right, Chris, tell us again where they can see live
if they missed it on Thursday.
Tell everybody.
This weekend, I'm in Philadelphia, Philadelphia punchline, Thursday, Friday and Saturday,
and then Sunday night, I'm at the DC improv Sunday night.
Franjole.fun has everything. I'm coming to Stamford, Connecticut, New York Common Club,
Stamford, Connecticut, and so much more. I mean, there's a lot of shows. I got the
Tampa improv again, no, Tampa side splitters, and then the Improv in Dangya Beach. FriendJola.fun, cover
the covers to podcast, come over and have some fun. Just please. That's all I ask.
Thank you, Chris. I don't want to be Mr. Silly ever again. I know. I love it.
Of course, HeatherMintolle.net, join Patreon, see all my dates. Back on the road.
Back on the road. I'm being very selective.
So, you know.
How do you feel about it?
I'm excited.
You have new material?
Like what are you doing?
Of course.
Are you gonna be doing like material or
Juicy Scoops?
Yes, I have new stories, new material,
stuff that I've not said here or on Patreon,
working on all of that.
There'll be some Juicy Scoop like hot topic stuff.
And every show will be different and it's called the Juicy Scoop like hot topic stuff. And every show will be different
and it's called the Juicy Scoop Experience
and you will experience joy and laughter when you come.
One more Juicy Scoop story that I forgot to tell earlier
that you was talking about friends with private jets
earlier in this episode.
Yes, do you know how many?
I did.
Years, even before Chelsea Lillie, we knew a guy,
his name, I don't wanna say his name, his name's Wayne,
but his last time I wanna say,
but he had a private jet.
Like, and he-
So when you were like actor Chris?
Yeah, we were like, I was a waiter
and he would fly and we'd fly to Vegas and whatever.
He was a customer at the restaurant.
He was super nice, he was still very friendly.
And Megan Markle didn't hop on that?
No, I don't think she was there yet.
It was early on.
All right.
Anyway, and he was still friendly with him to this day.
Anyway, he was in prison for a while, now he's out.
But you know that guy.
He was the guy that asked that girl to marry him.
How'd he get that private jet?
It was shady business, but whatever he had.
And one day, we would van eyes airport,
or have you picked up the private jets?
To go to Vegas or what?
Yeah, we go to Vegas.
And where the flight attendant comes off the plane
and she's like, sorry, it took so long
to get the plane back up and running.
But Whitney and Bobby just got off.
And you the cut, she was telling us what the plane looked like when it like it came from Vegas to Van Nuys airport.
And they destroyed it in 40 minutes.
40 minutes. She goes, it was, we had to wash the walls.
So sorry, you guys had to wait.
Because we were they puking there?
Who knows?
But she's like, I've never seen anything quite like what Whitney and Bobby did to this plane in 40 minutes.
I was like, wow, that's exciting.
And then, okay, when you then got on Chelsea lately, were you still hearing from Wayne?
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
So when did he go to prison?
I still hear from him.
