The Megyn Kelly Show - The NFL Coach-Reporter Scandal Explodes, and Blake Lively Wants $300 Million of ＂Mean Girl＂ Money, with Jesse Kelly and Zack Peter ｜ Ep. 1303

00:00:00.600 Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show, live on Sirius XM Channel 111 every weekday at New East.

00:00:12.260 Hey everyone, I'm Megyn Kelly. Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show and happy Friday. We made it

00:00:17.740 and we're plugging through April as well. I mean, Meg is right around the corner. It's kind of hard

00:00:22.580 to believe. We have a great, great Friday show for you today. Zach Peter will be here later.

00:00:27.000 we never found the lady. I love Zach Peter. He's going to be here with the latest on all the news

00:00:32.800 and culture. And there is a lot of it, including what's going on with the Blake Lively, Justin

00:00:37.360 Baldoni case. She just had to submit a filing in court about her alleged damages. And it's quite

00:00:44.020 the whopper. Wait until you hear more. And we are going to get into the wild story about the New

00:00:49.020 England Patriots coach, Mike Vrabel, and his relationship with a reporter who resigned from

00:00:53.840 the New York Times' The Athletic. It's like an arm of The Times. We touched on this yesterday,

00:00:59.360 and I was saying, why do I know about this? Why is this a national story? It seems like a personal

00:01:04.420 matter. I get that she got fired or was forced out, whatever. She claims she just resigned

00:01:09.180 because she was covering him, and if she was having an affair with him, that's a compromise

00:01:13.540 of your ethics. But for him, it's a matter between this guy and his wife. Why is he taking time off

00:01:19.940 from the Patriots having to do all these press conferences.

00:01:22.740 Well, things got a lot more explosive

00:01:25.600 when we got off the air.

00:01:27.860 And yeah, now I'm very into it

00:01:29.960 and I'm ready to talk about it. 0.98

00:01:31.380 And it seems like these two are a couple of sociopaths. 0.53

00:01:34.560 That's as good a place as any is to start this show.

00:01:37.220 We're gonna bring in our pal, Jesse Kelly.

00:01:39.300 He is host of the Jesse Kelly Show

00:01:40.760 on the Megyn Kelly channel, Sirius XM 111.

00:01:52.700 Here's a question for you.

00:01:54.260 How many brokers does it take to insure your business?

00:01:57.320 If you're like most business owners,

00:01:58.800 the answer is too many.

00:02:01.300 Multiple policies, multiple applications,

00:02:03.980 and no clear view of how it all fits together.

00:02:06.460 And when questions come up,

00:02:07.640 it's not easy to get the clarity you need at all.

00:02:10.480 No one's there for you.

00:02:11.640 But SuperSure changes that.

00:02:39.640 It's not some shell game that they seem to be enjoying playing at your expense.

00:03:10.060 jk what's happening megan i'm so ready for this weekend it's been such a wild wild week with all

00:03:18.300 these news stories and scandals and we've got soldiers getting arrested for it's just it's

00:03:23.180 been a crazy week it's one of those times i'm ready for the weekend i'm gonna check out and

00:03:27.200 not pay attention to any news whatsoever relate me too me too sometimes the news is like cathartic

00:03:33.340 cathartic for me to do it i always say it's kind of like my counseling to come out here

00:03:36.160 And sometimes it's like, oh, Iran, why every day Trump's poll numbers, the disastrous fractioning

00:03:43.840 on the right. Like this isn't fun to cover. It was much more fun when the Democrats were

00:03:48.100 falling apart. Now the right is falling apart and that's existential for the United States.

00:03:53.680 Yeah. Look, everybody has a honeymoon phase after they win an election, right? I mean,

00:03:58.460 you know how that goes. You have all the political capital in the world. Everybody,

00:04:01.640 every part of the coalition is happy it's just the way it works and then once you know how it

00:04:07.660 works when you get home from hawaii when the honeymoon's over and she has to scrub the

00:04:11.780 toilets and he has to work overtime to make ends meet and stress piles up and the bills pile up

00:04:17.280 is you're not in hawaii anymore same thing happens in politics after you know you win an election

00:04:23.540 everyone's happy eventually the different parts of the coalition who have different wants and needs

00:04:29.120 and desires. They want those things. And if they don't feel like they're getting those things,

00:04:34.180 they're going to be upset. They're going to get loud about it. Yeah. Yeah. That's where we are.

00:04:39.160 But thankfully today, the news cycle is more enjoyable. I have to be honest. I was actually

00:04:42.880 really enjoying the prep for today's show. And it is interesting to me because I, yes, literally 24

00:04:47.980 hours ago, less than, I was like, who cares about this story of this New England Patriots coach and

00:04:52.640 this reporter. It seems like a private matter, whatever. But it actually has gotten so huge.

00:04:59.580 Like the number of people who have said they wanted to hear us cover it, I'm like, okay.

00:05:03.620 And people on my staff who are like, I can't get enough of it. I think it's because it's touching

00:05:08.440 on like some very basic human themes. No one likes infidelity and no one likes lying,

00:05:15.580 repeated lying. Obviously, if you're in an affair, you're lying to your spouse, you know,

00:05:20.860 your partner. But this lying went well beyond that and now may have crossed over into what

00:05:25.860 looks like diabolical, like serial pathology amongst both parties involved. And so let's

00:05:35.320 just set it up for the audience. Have you been following it? I've been doing the best I can to

00:05:41.140 avoid it like the plague, but it is so big you cannot avoid it. So following it, no, it's been

00:05:46.420 following me it's so true i agree with that fully and and it caught me here i am now 24 hours later

00:05:57.520 ready to discuss it really the baby news is what did it for me but i'll get to that i want to put

00:06:03.240 the cart before the horse so she is a reporter who was with espn for a number of years and he

00:06:10.160 is the head coach of the New England Patriots, but he was the head coach of, what's the other

00:06:18.420 team? Tennessee Titans. Tennessee Titans. Thank you. Tennessee Titans. So he moved from one to

00:06:25.300 the other and she's been covering him for quite some time in that role. Now, what happened here

00:06:30.220 is that a couple of weeks ago, April 7th, it came out reported by page six of the New York Post

00:06:36.460 that they were spotted at this tony little resort in Sedona, Arizona,

00:06:43.460 a boutique resort set against the breathtaking Brins Mesa Mountain Range,

00:06:49.360 where a page six spy reported that they had breakfast on the patio of the hotel restaurant

00:06:55.520 around 1030 in the morning on Saturday, March 28th.

00:06:59.680 All right, now I just want people to picture, like, 0.73

00:07:01.480 you find out your spouse is with another member of the opposite sex, 0.64

00:07:06.460 at 10.30 a.m. on Saturday at a, like, lover's retreat in Sedona.

00:07:13.160 Already it's bad.

00:07:15.120 If I see Doug standing there holding the hands of some woman,

00:07:19.180 never mind embracing as this picture shows,

00:07:21.760 in the foothills of Sedona at 10.30 on a Saturday morning,

00:07:25.800 we're going to have a problem, he and I.

00:07:28.320 He would never do that to me.

00:07:29.880 Okay.

00:07:31.000 Then they spent a leisurely hour or so together at the pool,

00:07:35.140 then lounging side by side in a hot tub, Jesse, in a hot tub. 1.00

00:07:40.880 Nothing good ever happens between a woman's spouse or a man's spouse 0.98

00:07:45.660 and someone other than the spouse in a hot tub 0.99

00:07:48.780 after having hand-holding, embracing at 10.30 in the morning

00:07:53.280 and then a leisurely hour at the pool.

00:07:56.140 The spy for Page Six spotted them again that evening,

00:07:59.920 seems like a rather long business outing,

00:08:02.000 on the private rooftop of one of the hotel's bungalows.

00:08:06.420 Roofs are only accessible, reports Page Six,

00:08:09.280 from the two-person bungalows,

00:08:11.260 which cost up to $2,100 a night.

00:08:14.600 So you can't get to the roof where they were spotted

00:08:17.000 unless you are renting one of the two-person bungalows.

00:08:20.780 Photos show the two of them at sunset,

00:08:23.920 weaving their fingers together as they stand face to face.

00:08:26.480 The spy said they saw them briefly dance together.

00:08:29.400 Jesse, you and I have been together in person quite a few times.

00:08:32.520 We never danced together, never held hands, never embraced other than the initial, hey, good to see you, the tap embrace.

00:08:41.020 They danced together.

00:08:43.040 They insisted that they were there with friends.

00:08:46.400 This is the defense.

00:08:47.580 They simply were not visible in the pictures.

00:08:50.080 The friends somehow managed to avoid the spies from page six and avoid all of the many photos that we are putting on the board now.

00:08:57.980 A source close to Rossini, her name is Diana Rossini, his name is Mike Vrabel, she's 43, he's 50, said she was staying at the hotel during a hiking trip with two female pals.

00:09:11.680 One of Vrabel's pals told Page Six that they and the coach drove up to Sedona for the day with someone else, another friend, and they all drove back to their own hotel two hours away after hanging with Rossini and her gang that night.

00:09:24.780 But three other eyewitnesses told us they did not see anyone else with Rabel or Rossini.

00:09:31.840 So we don't know what's true.

00:09:32.840 That's how it first came out.

00:09:34.420 And the coach told page six when the story was breaking, these photos show a completely

00:09:38.120 innocent interaction.

00:09:39.420 Any suggestion otherwise is laughable.

00:09:41.260 This doesn't deserve any further response.

00:09:43.280 Rossini told page six, the photos don't represent the group of six people who are hanging out

00:09:47.420 during the day.

00:09:48.080 Like most journalists in the NFL, reporters interact with sources away from stadiums and

00:09:53.660 other venues.

00:09:54.300 The executive editor of The Athletic, which employs her, said these photos are misleading and lack essential context.

00:10:02.460 These were public interactions in front of many people.

00:10:05.220 Diana is a premier journalist covering the NFL.

00:10:07.340 We're proud to have her at The Athletic.

00:10:09.060 Well, no sooner did they issue that statement on April 7th than four days later, The Athletic began an investigation into her.

00:10:15.280 They began reviewing her coverage and her and said in the meantime, she's not going to be reporting while this investigation is underway.

00:10:22.220 and three days after that, she resigned.

00:10:25.740 She resigned claiming I've done nothing wrong.

00:10:28.480 I've been the picture of professionalism.

00:10:30.440 This media frenzy is hurtling forward

00:10:32.480 without regard for the review process.

00:10:35.580 The self-feeding speculation is unmoored from the facts.

00:10:39.560 Rather than allowing this to continue,

00:10:41.240 I've decided to step aside now

00:10:42.480 before my current contract expires on June 30th.

00:10:44.640 I do so not because I accept the narrative

00:10:46.300 that's been constructed around this episode,

00:10:48.300 but because I refuse to lend it further oxygen

00:10:50.340 or let it define me or my career.

00:10:54.440 Okay, I'm going to pause there.

00:10:56.400 So at this point in the story, you and I are trying to avoid this

00:10:59.400 as we don't know what it is, doesn't look great,

00:11:02.880 but it's not proof positive.

00:11:04.360 Maybe they were friends.

00:11:05.580 Why is it my business?

00:11:07.260 And let me just ask you, at that point,

00:11:09.900 should it have been a public feeding frenzy and a huge story?

00:11:14.520 No, and I've never understood.

00:11:16.060 I just look, maybe I'm different.

00:11:18.360 maybe it's because i'm a total narcissist i just have never gotten into celebrity gossip stuff like

00:11:24.060 i never understood when one of them gets a dui or something i don't i don't understand why it goes

00:11:28.020 on the front page i don't i don't care i mean not that getting a dui is good i mean i don't

00:11:32.180 i don't support running off to sedona with your girlfriend uh certainly when you're married but

00:11:36.340 i i've never really gotten into this celebrity gossip for the record against that yes yeah for

00:11:44.120 the record against that but i've never really gotten into the celebrity gossip aspect of it

00:11:48.780 but it is huge megan it's one of those things that exists and i know it's really big you know

00:11:53.500 tmz is big what is that what is that magazine my wife used to read us weekly or whatever it is

00:11:58.120 like all this celebrity gossip crap who's dating doing stuff it is enormous in this country and i

00:12:03.960 don't know that it's i don't know that it's just this country though i think maybe there's some 0.80

00:12:07.900 form of human nature that we famous people and are rich people we want i think we want them to

00:12:14.740 be involved in scandals does that make sense do you think there's part of us that wants them

00:12:18.600 to be in scandals yeah it makes us feel better about our own lives yeah i agree with that but

00:12:23.740 these are barely famous people i mean like he's famous i guess and he's nfl famous um she's not

00:12:29.280 really that famous i mean i i shouldn't opine because it's not my world i know nothing about

00:12:33.660 sports and i never watched sports and i don't i mean i know the stars who really break out like

00:12:38.760 aaron andrews i know but she's also sort of a friend but i know virtually nobody beyond that

00:12:43.460 well this is i guess it's probably one area where i actually may know a bit about it i do know

00:12:49.360 enough to know that at least back in the day i'm pretty sure it's gone up by now that something

00:12:54.360 like nine of the ten maybe ten of the ten most watch things on tv every year they're all nfl

00:13:01.300 games you know we like to imagine that everybody's paying attention to politics like like you be

00:13:06.960 everybody watching and listening right now but the truth is people are watching nfl football

00:13:10.580 so to be the head nfl coach of a major nfl team he is a big deal she may not be but i i haven't 0.96

00:13:18.980 watched the nfl in a few years since all that black lives matter crap and i know dang well 0.70

00:13:22.960 who mike vravel is i used to watch him play for the patriots back in the day i i know he went to 0.99

00:13:27.640 Ohio State like I I know that guy and I'm a I'm I'm someone who doesn't watch anymore so

00:13:33.100 if you're an NFL head coach you are a celebrity you're there are a lot of people who know who you

00:13:38.420 are okay all right so they're they're famous it's like like a friend of mine who's this

00:13:43.140 very storied lacrosse coach says when we when we met he says we're both famous in our fields

00:13:48.120 we're both famous in our fields so that's that's the case with these two as well they're famous

00:13:55.240 in their fields. Um, okay. So that's where it stood. And Vrabel came out on Tuesday and cause

00:14:00.960 the NFL draft is this weekend. And this is like, I guess it's undergoing right. It's underway right

00:14:05.520 now. And he tried to put it to bed by saying the following here in stop one. Let's watch.

00:14:10.640 You know, I've had some difficult conversations with people that I care about, with my family,

00:14:15.440 the organization, the coaches, the players, um, those have been positive and productive.

00:14:22.200 We believe in order to be successful on and off the field,

00:14:25.300 you have to make good decisions.

00:14:27.320 That includes me.

00:14:28.320 That starts with me.

00:14:30.920 We never want our actions to negatively affect the team.

00:14:35.140 We never want to be the cause of a distraction.

00:14:39.480 And these are comments and questions that I've answered for the team

00:14:43.120 and with the team.

00:14:44.180 We'll keep those private and to ourselves.

00:14:48.900 And what I can promise you is that my family, this organization, the team, the staff, the coaches, everybody, our fans, most importantly, will get the best version of me going forward.

00:15:01.160 OK, great. Fine. Most people are like, do your thing. You're going to go therapy. You're going to miss one day of the draft.

00:15:07.080 OK, I noticed on Jason Whitlock's show, he was saying so he cares.

00:15:11.560 He cares about this enough to miss the third night of the draft, like his fourth pick, but not to give up on his first, second and third picks.

00:15:20.480 For that, he will attend the draft.

00:15:22.640 So he's like, I care, but I've got to prioritize my team, too.

00:15:30.340 So then Thursday comes along, which is yesterday because we're now at Friday, and page six is not done.

00:15:36.200 They are not done.

00:15:37.180 Page six is all over this story like white on rice.

00:15:39.720 and they publish because now these two are like, there's no affair. And he's really just kind of

00:15:44.620 copped to, I've had difficult conversations and I'm going to go work on my stuff. He's kind of

00:15:48.500 telegraphing. Maybe I had an error in judgment, but no affair. Yesterday, page six publishes

00:15:53.980 pictures of them kissing inside the dimly lit Tribeca Tavern, March 11th, 2020. Six years ago,

00:16:08.240 They sat close to each other while conversing at the bar, at one point appearing to share a kiss.

00:16:12.400 They were kissing.

00:16:13.100 They were all over each other, an eyewitness tells Page Six.

00:16:16.420 At the time the photos were snapped, Vrabel was already married to his wife, Jen.

00:16:19.900 He's been married to her for 26 years.

00:16:22.200 While Rossini said, I do to her now, husband, six months later.

00:16:28.220 The two were, quote, very close to each other throughout the evening, according to our insider,

00:16:32.100 reports Page Six, who witnessed Rossini's legs in between Vrabel's legs.

00:16:36.520 The eyewitness said that they were at this hole-in-the-wall bar around midnight.

00:16:41.000 They stayed for at least an hour.

00:16:42.240 They were having a glorious time.

00:16:43.620 They were giving each other pecs, meaning kisses, a bunch of pecs constantly.

00:16:48.080 There was nobody in there.

00:16:49.860 Nobody knew who they were.

00:16:51.000 I don't even think the bartenders did.

00:16:52.880 Vrabel was working as head coach of the Titans at the time.

00:16:55.360 She was an NFL reporter.

00:16:56.880 Again, it's dicey because she's reporting on him, presumably, in that role, and that

00:17:01.160 is a clear ethical no-no for a journalist.

00:17:04.100 Um, then, then, okay, let's see. Um, they, then they were, okay, wait, let me stop there. So then it broke, thanks to internet sleuths yesterday, that if their affair began in 2020, we've got to reexamine everything that happened.

00:17:23.660 because she got married six months later in 2021 she had a baby boy and she named him mike

00:17:34.960 oh mike as in that's this guy's name mike yes and she put out a tweet hold on where is the tweet in

00:17:45.740 my packet i'm trying to find it um i can't find it but her tweet read i think i have it in my head

00:17:53.420 oh here it is august of 2021 keep looking at my almost four-day-old son michael while trying to

00:18:01.420 figure out who are the best michaels to ever play and coach in the nfl ah jesse

00:18:09.940 oh i'm so uncomfortable that's i know it's smoking gun territory and that's i mean that's

00:18:19.620 when i got interested is that is that child his who who the f who's having an affair on their

00:18:24.540 husband with somebody named mike and then has a baby boy then names him mike you know you could

00:18:30.420 stop the story there but then tweets out i'm sitting here staring at him in all his glory

00:18:37.720 wondering who the best mikes were ever to play and coach in the nfl which this guy did both as

00:18:43.460 you just pointed out so i have a question megan i guess i should probably ask you this i have a

00:18:50.620 question so okay we get these pictures get these pictures from sedona page six and all that i have

00:18:57.080 these pictures from six years ago drive back at nightclub okay we have public statements the

00:19:05.180 michael thing that you just brought up what i understand that's not at all the first thing

00:19:10.360 that she has said publicly

00:19:12.480 affectionate about

00:19:14.400 this Mike Rabel guy.

00:19:16.840 So

00:19:17.060 do you think it might be her?

00:19:20.680 Meaning, do you think

00:19:22.280 all this might be coming from

00:19:24.320 her? Because I'll tell you what,

00:19:26.600 I do. Like she wants it out there?

00:19:28.240 Uh-huh. Yep. That's exactly

00:19:30.280 what I'm saying. Just a theory.

00:19:32.280 I don't know. I like where you're going.

00:19:34.340 Well, think about it. Think about it.

00:19:36.980 These are brazen public statements.

00:19:38.120 what was page six doing at the sedona resort what why would page six is going to show up at some

00:19:43.440 dirty hippie hotel in sedona just randomly no somebody somebody told somebody tipped him off

00:19:48.780 how do you how do you even come up with these six-year-old pictures from some tavern someone

00:19:52.460 kept that on their iphone no one would even do that who does that why would you make these public

00:19:57.020 statements i'm assuming if you're going to sleep around you want to at least keep it pretty quiet

00:20:01.640 she doesn't seem to be keeping anything quiet this is before any of this stuff came out again

00:20:06.900 I don't know any of this. I don't know. But I'll tell you what, a lot of things add up to

00:20:13.040 she wants this out there. Oh, wow. There is great reason to believe that. Because you look back now

00:20:22.860 because the internet sleuths are the best, the best. X is the best. They have found so many

00:20:28.840 statements by her. And I was thinking these were Freudian slips. But maybe not. Maybe this woman

00:20:35.440 has actually been desperate to have us know this truth for a long, long time, even though she's 0.91

00:20:41.400 still married, um, because maybe she would like to be married to Mike's father. No, I'm just,

00:20:48.540 I have no idea that this, that he's Mike's father. I, as far as we know, her, her two children were

00:20:53.540 fathered by her current husband, but it is weird. She named one Mike while allegedly having an

00:20:57.420 affair with a Mike. Um, here are some examples. Okay. We're going to go through a few here. Um,

00:21:03.240 okay, here's one from August of 2025. So not, not too distant in the past. It's Sot7. She's

00:21:11.400 interviewing him on, uh, it's his 50th birthday. Sot7. Well, this was the most serious conversation

00:21:18.920 I think I've ever had with you in 10 years. Well, you started talking about things and then

00:21:22.860 I veer off into coach. No, no, it was a little coach speaking, but it's, it's, it's all fair.

00:21:28.520 And, and I, I can see, and I think people listening and watching you understand what

00:21:32.440 you're what you're trying to build so we got to have a little fun so I figured

00:21:35.320 we do 50 seconds for your 50th 50 seconds for my 50 right there's no way

00:21:39.820 I don't think I'll be able to get 50 seconds words are not our problems ever

00:21:44.200 in fact I think we both probably talk a little too much but we can do it

00:21:46.960 can I borrow your whistle no no every time a new question no one wants to 1.00

00:21:52.720 say that is nasty your wife Jen is a superb athlete I would say used to be 1.00

00:21:59.980 maybe used to be but she's still got it in her i'm sure the way you do so 1.00

00:22:03.380 which sports do you think jen could beat you at now ping pong ping pong have you ever done it

00:22:10.980 with her and she beats you parent square i get too aggressive yeah i can't you know i mean if

00:22:16.380 after it's two volleys i just try to kill it oh okay that whole thing it was so weird what she's

00:22:24.140 wearing no clothes first of all she's got short shorts on trying to do a professional interview 1.00

00:22:29.040 sitting. I mean, short shorts are one thing when you're standing. It's never okay for a reporter, 1.00

00:22:34.820 but while you're sitting, you're wearing short shorts and a teeny tiny tank that's skin tight.

00:22:39.260 And she was obviously flirtatious with him. Can I borrow your whistle? I mean, like what?

00:22:43.820 And she raises the wife. That's diabolical. She raises the wife and he insults the wife 1.00

00:22:49.560 to his alleged affair partner. Megan, I'm just going to keep coming back to it now.

00:22:55.140 if she wanted this out there what would she have done any different it's i mean that's 1.00

00:23:00.420 that's a pretty brazen question right there when you're the one having an affair with the guy to 0.75

00:23:05.860 ask about his wife knows things about his wife clearly they have discussed his wife

00:23:10.720 off camera that's pretty crazy oh my god it's unabashed now here is another one uh this is

00:23:19.980 from what's part in my take is that a sports show uh yes it's it's a podcast a sports podcast okay

00:23:26.680 this is from i think it's just this past sports show yeah okay okay so this is from just this

00:23:32.780 past october and it's diana rossini you'll hear it it's not eight max said i don't understand how

00:23:39.900 diana is married to an eagles i didn't say that she keeps getting to say bad stuff about the eagles

00:23:45.600 and then we might have said that your husband needs to maybe, like, withhold sex from you. 0.98

00:23:50.480 You said that. 0.95

00:23:51.520 You said that.

00:23:53.200 He's got to do something.

00:23:53.700 It's funny you say it because it's actually happening right now.

00:23:55.980 Yes, that's my guy.

00:23:58.180 I love that guy.

00:23:59.380 I've always loved that guy.

00:24:00.540 That is so the truth.

00:24:02.200 Kev is like, Kev has lost attraction to me since I put out a tweet.

00:24:05.860 Yes.

00:24:07.040 Like, I think he thought I was, like, cute at one point. 0.98

00:24:10.200 I can just tell by the way he passes me in the house, he's like, you're disgusting. 0.97

00:24:14.240 Yeah. 0.96

00:24:15.600 oh boy okay wait there's another one kind of related from just this past february

00:24:23.080 two months ago sat nine you know who lets me know my marriage is falling apart my mom

00:24:28.200 so that's oh does she oh yeah what did she say walk over here

00:24:31.440 this is real are we doing this right now yes yeah please do it so are we i said hey thank

00:24:40.940 you so much kev told me that you stopped by the house you did it oh yeah yeah he looks

00:24:45.220 good he looks really good i go yeah i was like he doesn't seem as stressed this year she's like

00:24:50.660 you know what i'm starting to think he's got a girlfriend and you know what good for him what

00:24:56.580 he looks good he's successful his wife's never around you love this football thing

00:25:02.800 that's why he looks good he doesn't even know who i am right now he's okay oh yes he we've

00:25:09.920 talked about we've never been more disconnected in our lives our text messages look like two

00:25:15.200 robots hello hello just go through the motions yes is he getting eagles insider in the uh in the

00:25:23.780 divorce love you any of that love you love you too no not even an emoji i get a picture of mikey

00:25:31.040 and joey looking adorable and perfectly dressed because kevin's so good at that right and i'll

00:25:35.320 right back miss you guys you too okay you know just the reference there to constantly being on

00:25:41.960 the road, that's in general a recipe for a disaster in any marriage. Just ask any of those

00:25:47.920 Hollywood couples, you know, that are constantly separated. You know, one's a Hollywood star,

00:25:53.620 one's a music star, whatever. They're never together. The only marriages that last in

00:25:57.500 period are generally the ones where people are together and are dealing with life's problems

00:26:03.060 together, not where one is constantly away. She's making light of it, but it's clearly the mother

00:26:09.000 was onto something because there does appear to have been an affair in the relationship,

00:26:13.320 at least on her part. We don't know what the husband's story is.

00:26:16.960 Yeah, I've wondered this before in the past. If you're married to, for instance, an NFL reporter,

00:26:24.640 sideline reporter, you've got to be an extremely secure dude. And even then, I don't think you're

00:26:29.820 ever going to be totally comfortable knowing that your wife spends all of her working hours 0.99

00:26:35.800 on the road with athletes and coaches and things like that that uh that in general is a recipe for

00:26:43.340 disaster anyway so yeah i can see how that would have been a point of stress yes and actually just

00:26:49.460 watching her it occurs to me as a journalist like sports reporting is tough it's tough for 1.00

00:26:55.600 these women because they they do have to be kind of chummy they have to be like a guy's girl you 1.00

00:27:00.620 know, like you can't go in there, I don't know, with like, stop the nonsense, right? 1.00

00:27:08.520 Like that's, you're not going to get very far in sports reporting if that's your attitude,

00:27:12.560 right? 0.73

00:27:13.180 So like part of it is you have to be a guy's girl, but like, do you have to wear the skin

00:27:20.100 tight, you know, tank when you're doing all your interviews to show off the rack?

00:27:24.840 Do you have to be flirtatious all the time?

00:27:27.380 Like flirtatious doesn't, it's not the same thing as guy's girl. 0.64

00:27:30.620 Look, I've never been. I'm happy that I'm not a journalist. You're the one who's a journalist. I've never been. But when I was a kid, these sideline reporters, there's probably something to this. They weren't, with all due respect, they weren't super attractive. I'm not saying they were ugly. I'm not saying they looked like bulldogs.

00:27:50.560 Wasn't a requirement. But they don't look like Aaron Andrews either. Right. They don't that they didn't they didn't look like that when I was a kid. Maybe I'm just an old fogey. It was it was the, you know, decent looking woman, but clearly a professional journalist. Right. It was she was a professional journalist, older, more mature woman, not some complete dime.

00:28:12.240 again I know I sound like an old person this era where all these female reporters are just they 1.00

00:28:19.200 all look like models it's this is new to me and it probably is a recipe for disaster no matter what 1.00

00:28:25.120 I mean what do you think's gonna happen when you put some some perfect tent around a group of NFL

00:28:28.960 athletes and coaches what the heck's gonna happen everyone knows it's gonna happen yes I mean look

00:28:35.100 ideally if she's committed to her husband nothing's gonna happen but does not appear that Diana Rossini

00:28:39.720 was all that committed to the husband. Listen to her here in SOT 5. This is a clip from ESPN

00:28:45.960 2021. Again, she's just had her son, Mike, or is about to, I guess. That happened in 2021. And so

00:28:53.960 did this. Watch SOT 5. Diana, we want to give you one more chance to address this. It happened

00:28:58.600 earlier in our program today. For those of you who weren't watching, Diana Rossini said this.

00:29:03.000 and i think we all do weird things when we're in love and we over share and over post and

00:29:09.740 look he's married he's getting married to a beautiful actress um i'm married to someone

00:29:15.260 average i don't post a lot about him if i was married to someone beautiful i'd over post too

00:29:19.300 now this doesn't seem nice we put together photos of diana's husband

00:29:24.700 here for everyone to see so you can make some amends on national television

00:29:29.660 we're average together and you know what the worst part is he sent me a text during that segment not

00:29:36.940 watching because he actually works for a living and he said good luck today be great on get up

00:29:42.780 so the guy's got a heart of gold and here i am on national tv killing him uh look we're average

00:29:48.700 together but he makes me above average because he married me so uh i am so sorry i need to really

00:29:54.660 stop killing my husband on television. I'm going to be divorced by Christmas.

00:29:59.580 I mean, this poor man, like she's out there. He's average, whatever. If I, if he were better

00:30:09.200 looking, I'd be posting more about him. I know she played it off, Jesse, but I really believe

00:30:14.300 with each one of these like subtle digs that she just, ha ha ha ha. There's a truth being revealed.

00:30:20.740 She does think he's average. She doesn't think he's much to look at. She's she's espousing her true feelings through the, you know, sort of shield of a laugh.

00:30:29.960 But it's quite clearly how she actually views him.

00:30:33.300 Well, poor kids. I know they're I know they're young now, but you know how fast kids grow up.

00:30:38.880 They grow up right before your eyes. It's not going to be long and they're going to have access to the Internet, smartphones and everything else.

00:30:44.800 And I mean, mom, I can't imagine everything's going to stay together marriage wise.

00:30:50.740 but mom is not going to look all that great in 5, 10 years from now

00:30:55.020 when little Mike gets a smartphone and picks it up

00:30:57.900 and starts to read through the internet.

00:30:59.200 It's going to be very ugly, very ugly when it gets this public.

00:31:04.220 Here's another Freudian one, I thought, or to your point, 1.00

00:31:07.560 maybe her desperate attempt to tell everybody that she was screwing this guy.

00:31:11.160 Allegedly, reportedly, she denies it.

00:31:12.840 sought six is diana rossini speaking to bill simmons um as vrabel became head coach of the

00:31:21.720 patriots and i don't know jesse i think he like was head coach of the patriots and then wasn't

00:31:26.520 then was again i'm not sure uh in any event here he is becoming he is becoming head coach of the

00:31:32.460 patriots again and this is august of 2025 uh her with bill simmons sought six well people are

00:31:38.860 We barely, barely had a coach last year.

00:31:42.480 I get it, but they're, they're kind of going a little overboard on it. 0.99

00:31:46.540 Like, it's like, we're going to shove Rabel D in your throat so much that you're going to forget about Tron Males. 0.99

00:31:53.880 Oh, I'm not exactly sure what you want. 1.00

00:31:59.120 She's talking about shoving him down her throat.

00:32:01.140 She's talking about, yeah, no, no, I got, well, I got one more, by the way.

00:32:04.840 My executive producer explains to me that that was he'd been with the Patriots as a player and now his return was as the coach.

00:32:11.480 OK, one more for you.

00:32:13.980 This is after a trip she'd taken on the road, February 5th of 2025.

00:32:20.520 OK, so this is not about a year ago.

00:32:23.640 And she is on the Zolak and Bertrand podcast.

00:32:26.960 So for now, the Super Bowl.

00:32:29.100 No, I did things in Miami.

00:32:30.120 I haven't even told my husband because it's just that much fun.

00:32:32.880 It was not like that.

00:32:33.880 I knew he would judge the kind of partying I was doing.

00:32:39.120 I don't know what got into me.

00:32:40.660 I just remember being down there acting like it was my last day on earth.

00:32:44.720 I mean, every comment, every comment is negative about him, keeping secrets from him,

00:32:50.280 diminishing him. 1.00

00:32:51.240 Or on the other hand, with this rabble guy, some sort of sexual innuendo or flirtatious, 1.00

00:32:58.200 you know, banter on the set. 1.00

00:33:00.000 Like the evidence was right there.

00:33:01.820 It was actually staring us in the face.

00:33:03.880 and so here's the question now um he okay there's more from him which i should play

00:33:09.980 because he now had to say more after the kissing photos hit and so he came out for a second presser

00:33:16.340 the first was tuesday i played you a soundbite yesterday he comes out again and says the

00:33:22.200 following uh in let's do i don't want to play both of these let's do stop three

00:33:29.020 can you explain how over just the last two and a half weeks we go from your original statement

00:33:34.680 about you know any situation the photos were anything other than innocent was laughable to

00:33:39.080 your comments tuesday to now deciding to go to counseling what is that process well that's uh

00:33:44.040 that's a private and personal matter i don't think that those comments um that was you know

00:33:51.240 In an attempt to protect your family, I would never be dismissive.

00:33:58.400 But I think my family and this football team are the most important thing.

00:34:02.220 And that's what I plan to do.

00:34:03.880 And I'm excited about the challenge with both of those things. 0.99

00:34:10.160 So now he's going to counseling in an attempt to protect his family, which is such a fucking lie. 0.99

00:34:17.720 If he cared about protecting his family, he wouldn't have been having an alleged six-year affair on them, including, this is also what I didn't know yesterday, while his wife had cancer. 0.99

00:34:31.080 So I really don't want to hear any bullshit from Mike Vrabel, whose name I didn't even know two weeks ago, about protecting his family by taking a weekend off to go to counseling over his obvious extramarital affair. 0.86

00:34:50.980 What is it with the counseling as the universal protector of people who do bad things? 0.97

00:34:58.300 well i think you just described exactly what it is it's always been the shield people use when you

00:35:04.860 get busted for having three kilos of cocaine in your trunk you go to the news media and you say

00:35:10.880 i just need to go get i need i need to go to rehab i need to get some counseling when it's

00:35:15.160 been discovered that you have a six-year-long affair i need counseling it's it's it's the card

00:35:20.960 people pull out when they just want to ride out a bad news cycle until it goes away and let's be

00:35:27.980 honest, Megan, this thing works. I mean, everybody uses this. All famous people do. Football coaches

00:35:32.600 do. Celebrities do. Politicians do it. They all do it. I got to get some counseling. I'm going

00:35:36.860 to get some help. I've had some internal talks. And then what happens tomorrow? We wake up,

00:35:41.300 we grab our phones, we pull it out. There's a new scandal and we move on. As hard as it is to

00:35:45.680 believe this time next week, you won't even remember this story. I mean, you'll remember

00:35:49.800 it, but you won't bring it up. You won't care anymore because it'll be gone. He'll go to

00:35:53.320 counseling. Both marriages will probably break up. Terribly sad for the families, the spouses.

00:35:57.980 is and everything else. But by this time next week, everything, everyone else in the country

00:36:02.420 will have moved on. Yep. I should point out, I don't know that she had cancer. There was a Reddit

00:36:07.920 post on it, but it's been unconfirmed. Either way, it's shit behavior if he did it. I've got to 0.99

00:36:13.900 finish with this one thing. And by, well, just two points. The first is people do care about this

00:36:21.680 because he's in a very prominent role

00:36:24.220 and so is she.

00:36:25.660 And they came out and they lied to us.

00:36:28.180 And not only did they lie,

00:36:29.600 but, you know, she got rather indignant,

00:36:31.980 holier than thou,

00:36:33.220 like, how dare you,

00:36:34.520 the scandalous allegations and so on.

00:36:36.280 And like, that is not the way to handle it.

00:36:38.680 You know, like, I think the public

00:36:40.040 actually would have been more

00:36:41.200 where you and I were yesterday

00:36:42.780 if they had just come out and said,

00:36:45.140 not going to comment on this, moving on.

00:36:47.860 You know, like just,

00:36:49.400 they're right that they don't have to share

00:36:51.620 anything about their private lives with us. They actually don't. It's not like he's a politician

00:36:55.760 or a clergyman, you know, or she's running for office. Like that's not, she would have been in

00:37:02.240 trouble ethically and she would have had to tell the truth to The Athletic owned by the New York

00:37:05.540 Times about whether she was sleeping with somebody she was covering. But to the rest of us, she 0.94

00:37:10.180 actually owed no explanation, nor did he. But if you're going to go out there and get indignant

00:37:14.480 about it, like she did, and then he lied too, he lied. You know, like it's just better to say,

00:37:19.900 I'm not going to comment on this. You don't have to comment on everything. But once they did,

00:37:25.880 they started making their public beds that they were going to have to lie in and that's what's

00:37:29.800 happening. But secondly, I wanted to point to this. One of the stories that grabbed my eyes

00:37:34.000 was she was not the only reporter to lose her job as a result of all this, Jesse. There's a gal

00:37:38.880 named Chrissy Freud of USA Today, F-R-O-Y-D. She covered the NFL and college football for that

00:37:47.060 horrific, terrible paper. They're awful. So Chrissy ultimately is in a better place. But

00:37:53.300 she posted the following after Diana Rossini posted her indignant resignation, you know,

00:37:59.500 like, I'm not going to allow this to distract and so on. And she posted the following.

00:38:04.000 I'm sure you were told to submit this or that you'd get fired instead. Don't let the door hit

00:38:08.980 you on the way out. We know who you really are and what you've been up to for years.

00:38:12.980 It does so much detriment to women in sports 0.97

00:38:15.360 who have done things the right way.

00:38:18.080 Now, there's absolutely nothing wrong with what she said.

00:38:20.160 And actually, she raises some very valid points. 1.00

00:38:22.420 Any female reporter who sleeps with a source 1.00

00:38:24.680 or someone she's supposed to be covering objectively 1.00

00:38:26.480 besmirches every female reporter who's not doing that.

00:38:31.560 And like this woman, Chrissy Freud is very attractive.

00:38:34.180 She's got the long blonde hair

00:38:35.320 and she's probably sick and tired of people looking at her 1.00

00:38:37.760 and thinking that shit. 1.00

00:38:39.040 And she's looking at this gal saying, 1.00

00:38:41.020 she said it right up front.

00:38:42.700 You've been doing it for years.

00:38:45.080 We know who you really are and what you've been up to for years.

00:38:48.280 So she clearly knew something, Jesse.

00:38:51.140 And what happened?

00:38:53.460 USA Today fired her.

00:38:56.880 They fired Chrissy Freud for saying this about Diana and this guy, this coach.

00:39:06.520 Where does this girl go to get her job back as a sports commentator who appears to have done things right, 0.64

00:39:11.540 who appears to have been rather offended at the obvious behavior of this fellow female sportscaster. 0.96

00:39:17.160 And as a result of her speaking out for what was moral, she lost her job. 0.80

00:39:23.740 Well, she's certainly not going to get a job with the Patriots.

00:39:26.460 I know that. That's one.

00:39:28.040 And two, back to what you were talking about, about the, you know, when they got indignant and things like that.

00:39:34.400 I've talked about this for a long time, that we live in something I call the nuclear news cycle.

00:39:39.740 and that's that you know if it's 1990 and there's a scandal how do you even hear about it what do

00:39:45.080 you learn maybe it's on the newspaper maybe it's on a magazine maybe if you're super famous enough

00:39:50.900 it's a five minute segment on the news that night but today it burns way hotter it burns way hotter

00:39:57.160 because of social media because everyone has the ability to have access to you and dig through

00:40:01.520 everything you mentioned the internet sleuths and things like that so if you get yourself in trouble

00:40:06.120 If you're Mike Vrabel, can you imagine what the notifications have been like on his phone for the past 48 hours?

00:40:11.580 Every single freaking person, every friend, your mom's texting you, Mike, what did you do?

00:40:16.260 I mean, everything. 0.86

00:40:16.900 So for a short time, it's going to burn hotter than anybody has ever experienced when it comes to a scandal.

00:40:23.000 That's the bad part of it.

00:40:24.360 But the good part of it is it also blows over faster.

00:40:26.920 It's nuclear because it'll go to a million degrees in a split second.

00:40:29.960 and then it's gone because there will be a new scandal because of the social media aspect of

00:40:36.380 everything now. So when people get in trouble, all people just shut up, just shut up. I have no idea 0.96

00:40:44.200 why they put out statements, why you get indignant, why you lie, why you don't do anything. You know

00:40:48.420 what I would do if I got caught in a scandal? I'd take this and I'd just go, there it is. It's on,

00:40:52.680 it's on the desk. It's in the drawer somewhere. And now I don't hear from anybody. I'll pick it

00:40:58.160 back up in 48 hours no matter what it is and things will have blown over but nobody does it

00:41:03.200 they feel like they have to make statements lies and things no i couldn't agree with you more i was

00:41:08.880 just making this point the other day i've been the subject of so many hit pieces long in-depth

00:41:12.200 investigative hit pieces just ignore them just ignore them ignore them whether they're real or

00:41:18.260 fake it really doesn't matter ignore them in today's fractured media it is pointless to go

00:41:23.680 out there, the more you comment on it, the more it stays in the news and the worse you look.

00:41:30.400 Yep. You can't possibly. But wait, let me ask you this. Yeah, go ahead. Can therapy

00:41:36.180 therapize him out of a six year affair? Like I seriously, like are we being too hard on therapy?

00:41:44.840 Like, should he get there? What should he do? What like what should he do? Megan, I'm probably

00:41:50.280 not the one to ask this question to because i'm not a big therapy guy i think therapy in general 0.99

00:41:56.820 is a kooky profession run by communist women who just love to tell people that their parents are

00:42:03.280 at fault for everything in their lives and they haven't ever screwed up anything and every time 0.81

00:42:07.600 i've ever talked to somebody who hated their parents or something like that you know where

00:42:11.080 they found out about it from a therapist they went to their parents are at fault the boyfriend 0.58

00:42:15.560 the husband the wives were at fault so you go sit down and pay 500 bucks an hour to some dirtball 0.74

00:42:20.140 communist who doesn't know you from Adam and she's going to sit there and hand some pills to 0.99

00:42:24.160 you and tell you that none of your problems are your fault and come back next week and I'll

00:42:27.860 reinforce that decision again. I'm just not the therapy. It's not a therapy guy. It's not me.

00:42:34.880 Okay. Speaking of alleged affairs, there's a woman in the House of Representatives. 1.00

00:42:41.780 Her name is Alma Adams. She's a Democrat from North Carolina.

00:42:50.140 I saw you posted about this on X, and I thought it was a great opportunity for us to have a meaningful chat.

00:42:56.200 She is 79 years old, my friend, and she has been probed by the House Ethics Committee for an alleged inappropriate relationship with a female staffer who we believe is at most in her 50s, but I'm not sure.

00:43:16.160 She could be younger than that.

00:43:17.180 I think she graduated high school around 1990, so she should be in her 50s if that's true.

00:43:25.140 The alleged affair partner was her staffer, so if there were an affair, it's a me-too

00:43:31.060 situation potentially.

00:43:32.760 We know about this because a high-ranking staffer filed a complaint with the ethics

00:43:37.280 committee, and this woman, who was her alleged affair partner, worked for her, was promoted

00:43:43.060 the same year as the complaint to deputy chief of staff in this woman's congressional office 0.99

00:43:49.940 and also later made district director of the congresswoman's Charlotte-based office.

00:43:55.400 The office for Congresswoman Adams denies it, saying no inappropriate or improper relationship

00:44:00.740 was uncovered by ethics investigators, nor did the North Carolina Democrat violate any

00:44:07.140 House rules.

00:44:08.140 So they're saying nothing was uncovered.

00:44:11.600 Nothing was proven.

00:44:12.680 Thank God. But the alleged affair partner, whose name is Sandra Brown, appears to have written a book, a self-published novel, under the pseudonym Savette Brown. So not her name, Sandra Brown, but Savette Brown. Is it really Sandra Brown? Well, the author's Amazon page identifies her as Sandra Brown.

00:44:35.000 So I feel like it's, yeah, we're good.

00:44:38.560 It's her.

00:44:39.980 And in this novel, it's about, okay, a quarrel between a woman and her lover's husband.

00:44:48.880 It's called Boss Lady.

00:44:51.440 And wait, no, hold on a second. 0.99

00:44:54.160 No, no.

00:44:54.420 Okay. 0.92

00:44:54.600 So in the book, Boss Lady is called The Legend of Sidney Donovan Begins.

00:44:58.860 And in this novel, she says it's loosely based on her life.

00:45:03.580 it basically documents uh this kind of an affair so that's just some of the evidence that was used

00:45:11.800 against them but the probe never substantiated the claims and was closed without releasing any public

00:45:17.140 findings your thoughts on alma and this potential problem this is one of those stories that you know

00:45:24.400 i really wish i could delete from my mind it's not that it's not that a congressman or senator

00:45:30.800 that some politician would have a fling with a staffer

00:45:33.800 is anything that would shock me.

00:45:35.600 But 79 years old, and I just don't understand.

00:45:41.120 Why did you have to put her picture up again, Maggie?

00:45:43.060 I just don't understand this world anymore.

00:45:46.640 And sometimes I just have these moments

00:45:49.160 where sometimes I want to go by like a cabin in the mountains

00:45:52.500 without electricity, and I want to spend my days

00:45:55.480 just chopping firewood and hunting deer.

00:45:58.060 And I just, I don't want to know, I don't want to know that.

00:46:00.360 I don't want to know that thing, that story you just brought up that I found out about yesterday. 0.99

00:46:05.620 You know, it's bad enough that all these people are just complete dirt balls.

00:46:09.860 But when it's the 79-year-old apparently who finds a scissor sister in the office, I just don't understand. 0.98

00:46:19.760 I don't understand this world anymore.

00:46:21.480 I want to go back to like when I was a kid when everything was innocent and better.

00:46:25.240 I want to go back.

00:46:27.000 Or it's just unknown.

00:46:28.800 Yes.

00:46:29.080 They deny it.

00:46:29.980 No wrongdoing found by the House Ethics Committee.

00:46:33.260 All right, last but not least in the time we have,

00:46:35.320 there's a gal who writes for The New Yorker. 1.00

00:46:37.740 And she's been known for bashing capitalism.

00:46:42.220 And she goes on this podcast.

00:46:43.840 Her name is Gia Tolentino.

00:46:46.760 She's 37.

00:46:47.800 She goes on this podcast, this left-leaning podcast,

00:46:49.920 and makes a shocking admission in SOT-19.

00:46:55.980 Would you steal from Whole Foods?

00:46:58.760 You want to go first?

00:46:59.980 yes and i have under very specific circumstances i think that stealing from a big buck store i'll

00:47:09.180 just state my platform it's neither very significant as a moral wrong nor is it

00:47:15.460 significant in any way as protest or direct action but i did steal from whole foods on

00:47:20.620 several occasions like i i've been involved in like a neighborhood mutual aid group since 2021

00:47:26.640 And so every week I would go get groceries for Miss Nancy, my now family friend who lived nearby, and she wanted to go to Whole Foods.

00:47:33.820 She wanted food from Whole Foods.

00:47:34.820 So I was like, okay, great. 0.61

00:47:36.440 And so I'd be getting Miss Nancy all her groceries, and then I would finish, and I'd be like, oh, my God, four lemons.

00:47:41.620 I forgot four lemons.

00:47:42.780 And on several occasions, I was like, I'm just going to go back, grab those four lemons, and get the hell out.

00:47:48.600 You should go to prison.

00:47:50.060 I know.

00:47:50.380 You think they're going to ban me? 0.72

00:47:51.320 They should throw you in jail. 0.64

00:47:54.300 They should.

00:47:54.920 The Daily Mail caught up with her outside of her five bedroom Brooklyn brownstone on Thursday afternoon and asked her about the scandal of what she said. 1.00

00:48:04.040 And her response was, I can't believe you came to my fucking house. 0.98

00:48:08.580 So she doesn't like being confronted in front of her massive display of wealth because it doesn't make her look very good, Jesse. 0.99

00:48:17.800 But you tell me whether this micro looting, that's what they're calling it, that she thinks is noble somehow because it's Whole Foods is, in fact, something to applaud.

00:48:30.420 Yeah, one of the things I have tried very hard over the past few years to get through to the right is that these people do not share your moral framework in any way at all.

00:48:40.900 They are more comfortable with theft and violence and terrible things than you could ever possibly imagine.

00:48:46.600 they have the moral framework that is closer to what i would describe as an animal than a human

00:48:52.460 being and people on the right because they look like other human beings when they look at communists

00:48:57.160 they have two eyes two ears two hands two legs they think that this person must be human like

00:49:02.900 i am and i'm here to tell you these people there are nothing you would recognize as human if you

00:49:08.420 could peer inside of their soul you would understand you're dealing with actual monsters

00:49:12.200 that's what these people are they're all like this every one of them they're all like this

00:49:15.200 Mm-hmm. The nerve to steal from a Whole Foods and cast it as some sort of a noble act,

00:49:24.380 whereas you're costing that business money, you are taking something that doesn't belong to you

00:49:28.980 to which you have no right, you're potentially endangering if enough people do this, the jobs

00:49:32.660 of the people who work in Whole Foods. Screw you. And she works for the New Yorker in a five-bedroom 0.95

00:49:38.040 brownstone in Brooklyn. I mean, what a joke. These people are so hypocritical. I mean, 0.98

00:49:42.760 as you call them, the communists. Shame on her. Jesse, a pleasure. Thanks for going through it 0.99

00:49:48.060 with me. It's great to see you on this Friday afternoon. I'll see you, Megan. Thanks for having

00:49:51.980 me. All right. Up next, Zach Peters here. If you're looking to make smarter choices for your

00:51:07.480 $300 million in damages, thanks to Justin Baldoni, and a widely criticized New York Times profile of

00:51:16.200 Lauren Sanchez Bezos. You're not going to believe that. Plus the latest on the lady. They never

00:51:23.060 found the lady who we are still looking for. Here with me now, Zach Peter. He's the one we got that

00:51:28.540 quote from. He's host of No Filter with Zach Peter. Zach, welcome back. Great to see you.

00:51:33.020 Thank you for having me, Megan. Love your content. Love all of your posts. They never

00:51:37.960 found the lady. They still haven't found her. We don't know where she's at.

00:51:41.640 We have no idea where the lady is. The aliens took her, Megan. I don't know. 0.99

00:51:44.660 We have got to start with Lauren Sanchez Bezos. So this New York Times profile is one of, if not

00:51:53.300 the most absurd piece of reading I've had to do in the past six months. The headline is someone

00:52:01.080 has to be happy. Why not Lauren Sanchez Bezos? As half of an unfathomably powerful couple, 0.62

00:52:07.980 Ms. Sanchez-Bezos seems to have influenced the uber-rich to stop apologizing and start 0.97

00:52:15.220 enjoying themselves. The message of this piece, Zach, is that she has made it okay for billionaires

00:52:22.860 to be billionaires again, that they should just be happy, enjoy life, have fun, and remember to

00:52:31.860 be grateful and express their gratitude in the mornings. She writes, Amy Chosek, who writes the

00:52:39.140 piece, starts as follows. A lot of things make Lauren Sanchez Bezos ridiculously happy. Helicopters,

00:52:47.700 fashion, protecting the narwhal, her little sister, Elena, her five best girlfriends,

00:52:53.260 and of course, her husband, Jeff Bezos. She and Mr. Bezos do everything together.

00:52:58.740 On a typical day, the newlyweds wake up around 6 in their new, roughly $230 million compound on Indian Creek, an exclusive private island in Miami where you don't live, that's me, an often called billionaire bunker.

00:53:14.720 They don't touch their phones.

00:53:16.180 Instead, they begin each day by listing 10 things they are grateful for, and they can't repeat what they named the day before.

00:53:24.540 From there, the couple drink their morning coffee in a sunroom and watch the sunrise.

00:53:31.080 Hers from a mug that reads, woke up sexy as hell again.

00:53:35.820 His from one she got him that spells hunk in symbols from the periodic table.

00:53:42.920 They play pickleball.

00:53:44.680 Six days a week they work out for an hour with their private trainer.

00:53:49.000 He looks good, doesn't he?

00:53:51.140 miss sanchez bezos says of her new husband in an interview in miami in january she slow nodding

00:53:58.480 repeating he looks good oh my god i threw up in my mouth i threw up in my mouth you tell me

00:54:06.740 could you find something more tone deaf for the times when people are struggling with inflation

00:54:13.660 etc like first of all i don't think that this article related to eddie but like i don't think

00:54:18.480 it resonated with anybody i mean i didn't think you could actually choke on gratitude but i caught

00:54:23.520 myself nearly vomiting with the amount of gratitude that was about to pour well actually i want to

00:54:28.280 retract that because i i don't have any more gratitude after having to listen to that insufferable 0.64

00:54:32.800 mourning with the bezos's it's just it's it's so out of touch and it's just like who thought that 0.90

00:54:40.260 this was a good idea especially you know when so many americans are struggling to put food on the

00:54:45.860 table the last thing they want to hear about is you know jeff bezos's trainer that he trains with

00:54:51.540 for an hour a day six days a week when most people are lucky if they can go for a 20 minute walk

00:54:55.940 or how happy they are they should be with all that money happy right like she's like however

00:55:06.720 happy anybody is, I'm 20% happier. We know. We've seen you on your yacht with a bubble bath

00:55:16.260 foaming out of your hot tub, which is the size of an Olympic swimming pool in the Mediterranean.

00:55:22.680 We get it. Most of us could never dream of living like that. And by the way,

00:55:26.260 wouldn't even if we had your husbands, not your billions. I mean, I guess to an extent it's better

00:55:33.440 than getting like the uber wealthy rich people like the Blake Lively's of the world to victimize

00:55:38.200 themselves and complain at least she's owning that she's happy I'll give her that we don't need her

00:55:42.520 to boast about it in our in our faces um and we definitely don't need a fluff piece like this but

00:55:48.260 I mean there's no reason for you to not be happy that's when when it's worse when you have all the

00:55:53.260 resources and all the money and then you're complaining or you're trying to in some way

00:55:57.000 victimize yourself that's well and also the the absurdity of like the gratitude homage each 0.79

00:56:04.240 morning like i am picturing a mom single mom inner city three kids two jobs shitty schools

00:56:12.580 where she has to worry about them getting shot or joining a gang this i've met moms like this 0.98

00:56:16.640 on the south side of chicago in particular um or going to prison no father in the picture

00:56:22.000 who find a way each day to find something

00:56:25.600 that they're grateful for.

00:56:26.800 You know, the love of their child,

00:56:28.540 a soft blanket, a delicious cup of coffee.

00:56:32.300 Because they have to. 1.00

00:56:33.200 And the nerve of these two fuckers sitting there. 1.00

00:56:36.560 10 things everyone, 1.00

00:56:37.560 and it can't be something we said the day before.

00:56:40.120 Like my diamond mine, my personal helicopter.

00:56:44.260 I'm thankful for the yacht,

00:56:46.080 our yacht that has its own yacht

00:56:47.960 with all of our toys

00:56:49.180 where I play with my friends, the Kardashians. 1.00

00:56:52.000 Who the fuck do they think they're kidding? 0.99

00:56:54.060 Oh, we're just, that's what's special about us is we're grateful. 0.99

00:56:58.340 And you know that their gratitude is like,

00:57:00.340 I'm grateful for this cup of coffee this morning.

00:57:02.800 I'm grateful for the sun coming out and basking on her.

00:57:06.020 Like, you know, it's that type of stuff.

00:57:07.820 She's not sitting there being grateful for all her shoes,

00:57:09.780 which she should be grateful for.

00:57:10.920 Because to your point, when you have these other struggling parents

00:57:14.580 or struggling mothers, they have to find gratitude

00:57:17.700 because the circumstances, you know, can be disappointing.

00:57:21.640 They can be, you know, they're struggling.

00:57:24.160 They can't put food on the table.

00:57:25.440 They're in a bad environment.

00:57:26.760 They're in a bad city.

00:57:27.900 Their kids are struggling in school.

00:57:29.900 Whatever the case may be, there are so many things that they could perceive as going wrong

00:57:34.540 that they choose to focus on the positive.

00:57:37.040 And that's the point of leaning into gratitude, whereas the Bezos have everything that they

00:57:41.060 could possibly want or ever need.

00:57:43.740 Yes, it's a great point.

00:57:45.760 Yes, gratitude is like almost an act of nobility when one's life is really tough.

00:57:51.200 It shows a toughness of spirit and like an admirable positive attitude when your husband is the third richest man in the world or less impressed by your ability to find things for which you are thankful. 0.98

00:58:05.560 It's just so she's so fucking clueless. 0.95

00:58:07.320 All right, it goes on. The couple had recently returned from Seattle, where Mr. Bezos celebrated his 62nd birthday by making pancakes for all of their seven children from previous marriages. 0.98

00:58:20.900 Ms. Sancho's Bezos, 56, adores kids, having them, raising them, encouraging other people to have them.

00:58:27.860 Okay, this is so sweet. Yes, his wife, the children he had with his wife, Mackenzie, whom he totally abandoned and cheated on with her, with Lauren Sanchez. And her, she had two prior husbands. I think one was Tony Gonzalez, a football player. And one was Patrick Whitesall, who ran Endeavor, one of the biggest Hollywood agents, agencies in the world.

00:58:51.840 So she had one, basically she looks like a gold digger

00:58:55.200 because she kept upgrading to a richer, more well-known man 0.97

00:58:58.680 until she found one of the richest men in the world.

00:59:01.880 You better watch it, Jeff Bezos, because if she meets Elon Musk,

00:59:05.000 he's higher than you on the totem pole.

00:59:07.200 So yes, it's so lovely when you're there making breakfast

00:59:10.180 for another man's children whose wife you stole

00:59:15.720 and then lied about it to the public

00:59:20.160 after it was broken by the National Enquirer,

00:59:22.200 which appears to have been right.

00:59:23.560 Now, again, they deny, for the record,

00:59:25.580 I must say that they deny that it began in an affair,

00:59:28.040 but it seems quite obvious,

00:59:29.200 and it appears that her brother may or may not

00:59:31.140 have been the one who bumped it.

00:59:32.920 But the nerve, again, oh, such a perfect picture

00:59:35.860 of a family life, Zach Peter.

00:59:37.160 You know, she should be grateful

00:59:38.700 because at some point he will find somebody else

00:59:41.800 and her days are numbered.

00:59:43.960 There will be someone new,

00:59:44.940 So she should be grateful for all the private jets that she has right now. 1.00

00:59:48.540 I mean, she'll probably be taken care of to an extent should they ever get divorced.

00:59:52.800 And I feel like that's inevitable.

00:59:54.320 But they always find someone newer, younger, hotter at some point.

01:00:00.080 And so she should count all of her blessings now.

01:00:04.520 I mean, she is kind of oppressed when it comes to billionaires, though, Megan, because he's third.

01:00:08.560 He's not second.

01:00:09.320 He's not first.

01:00:10.280 So there's a little humility there.

01:00:11.840 No. She may have to go for, who's that guy, the foreign guy who owns Louis Vuitton and all those like foreign brands. He's up there. Then she suggests she may be like, maybe she wants another baby. She's 56 years old. She says, oh, wait, hold on. I flip back. Over several interviews, writes the author, she repeatedly urged me to have another baby. Do it, she said. I would have another one tomorrow. Tomorrow.

01:00:38.220 I finally asked if she and Mr. Bezos were considering it, as a couple of her friends had suggested to me, quote, I would have a baby tomorrow, she repeated with a coy smile.

01:00:49.660 A spokeswoman later called to say Ms. Sanchez Bezos was not having a baby.

01:00:54.460 But wow. 0.88

01:00:55.280 OK, so 56 is a little a little long in the tooth to be considering getting pregnant.

01:01:00.820 Who am I to judge?

01:01:01.800 But I'm fine to judge, actually, because I'm almost her age.

01:01:05.020 Okay, secondly, she says, they point out that she counts Kris Jenner, Katy Perry, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Lydia Kivas, wife of super connector Michael Kivas, among her close friends.

01:01:19.640 People act like he's my new friend, Ms. Sanchez Bezos says of Mr. DiCaprio.

01:01:23.860 No, I've known Leo since I was 25.

01:01:26.680 25. Left out of the piece is that marriage to the Hollywood super agent. They referenced the

01:01:35.000 marriage, but that's how she knows Leo. Once again, I've got a thing about these women who 1.00

01:01:40.620 access huge wealth or huge connections through their husbands and then act like it's a personal 1.00

01:01:49.680 achievement. Oh, I go way back with Leo. Now he's a personal friend of mine, or I'm a philanthropist.

01:01:55.240 I have donated billions or millions to these charities.

01:01:59.160 You were a born housewife who took your husband's connections and or money to make yourself feel like you would achieve something.

01:02:08.320 I would have respected her more as she stayed on the reporter beat, flying her helicopter, bringing people the news. 0.91

01:02:15.100 It was sort of silly.

01:02:16.060 Her role as a reporter, as I understand, is more entertainment stuff. 0.62

01:02:18.680 But that's fine. 1.00

01:02:19.500 I would respect that more than her running around like some of these other nimwits like Meghan Markle. 0.88

01:02:24.720 I'm a founder, a founder, and I'm a philanthropist, and I know stars. 1.00

01:02:30.420 I know lots of stars.

01:02:31.720 Me, not through Jeff Bezos, through my other husband.

01:02:35.520 I mean, Megan is a founder. 0.83

01:02:37.200 She founded herself a prince that gave her this lifestyle.

01:02:41.160 If anything, that's the only thing she's founded is a prince.

01:02:45.580 True.

01:02:46.520 So, in any event, she goes on, and it ends with the following, okay?

01:02:50.900 She's got to talk about her trip to outer space, Zach.

01:02:53.520 I can talk about it because I've been, I don't know if you've been, but not everyone's been, I've been, I went with Maureen Callahan and Sarah, my hairstylist and friend.

01:03:05.460 They write about how, okay, this is how it ends.

01:03:10.100 She is fluent in fame, but power is a whole other language, especially as one half of a couple whose reach rivals that of a nation state. 1.00

01:03:18.660 She wants to spread happiness into every room she enters, but happiness can't scale. 1.00

01:03:24.380 Happiness can't pay the rent.

01:03:27.460 Back at the elementary school in Connecticut, where she was promoting her book,

01:03:31.660 Ms. Sanchez Bezos told the students about going to space on Mr. Bezos' private Blue Origin rocket.

01:03:38.380 I went to space with Katy Perry, she tells the children.

01:03:42.400 How fun is that? 0.99

01:03:43.900 It was like a girl's trip to space.

01:03:47.480 The writer points out the flight was widely mocked as a boondoggle, an emblem of late stage

01:03:52.300 end times excess. 0.53

01:03:54.400 Ms. Sanchez-Bezos, however, does not traffic in cynicism.

01:03:57.680 It was the coolest thing ever, she told the students.

01:04:01.020 A little boy raised his hand, asked if she's ever been to another planet.

01:04:05.180 No, Ms. Sanchez-Bezos replied.

01:04:07.660 Sometimes it feels like I'm another planet, but no.

01:04:11.560 So she wants the little kids to know it was super fun.

01:04:15.300 She was there with Katy Perry, and it was like a girl's trip to space, which her fellow astronaut, which is what they actually called themselves, Gayle King, would not appreciate trip is dangerously close to ride.

01:04:30.820 Here's what Gayle said.

01:04:32.300 Please don't call it a ride. 0.70

01:04:34.100 That is not a frigging ride.

01:04:35.240 Whenever a man goes up, you have never said to an astronaut, boy, what a ride.

01:04:39.800 You know, we duplicated the same trajectory that Alan Shepard did back in the day, pretty much.

01:04:45.300 No one called that a ride. It was called a flight. It was called a journey because a ride implies that it's something frivolous or something that's lighthearted.

01:04:54.440 There was nothing frivolous about what we did and the machine that we were on and what it took for the people to get that machine up and running, to get us up and get us back down safely.

01:05:06.060 So, you know, I'm very disappointed and very saddened by it.

01:05:09.400 And I also say this, the what it's doing to inspire other women and young girls, please don't ignore that.

01:05:16.700 I've had so many women and young girls reach out to me and men, too, by the way, men, too, that say, wow, I never thought I could do that.

01:05:24.020 But I see you doing it at this stage of my life.

01:05:26.120 Who would have thunk it?

01:05:27.000 Not me.

01:05:28.100 And how inspired they are.

01:05:30.740 So there you have Gayle King.

01:05:32.500 There was nothing frivolous, nothing frivolous.

01:05:34.580 and lauren sanchez saying how fun is that it was like a girl strip to space i mean it was really

01:05:40.340 a disneyland ride it was a ride gail it was right you guys went you went right up and you came right

01:05:45.480 back down and you did it for the gram you did it for the photo op you didn't do anything novel

01:05:50.340 you didn't have to study and be part of nasa and you know there was no merit behind it it was a

01:05:57.860 make a wish gail won a raffle ticket and they picked her to go up to space with katie perry

01:06:03.260 and it's just it's crazy that that i didn't even realize gail was taking herself that seriously

01:06:09.200 oh yeah i mean and the nerve of lauren sanchez bezos to speak to these children

01:06:14.180 like i was there with katie perry actually name dropping celeb names or to even make it seem like

01:06:22.080 it's something aspirational for them when it's not like she did anything to achieve that other

01:06:27.680 than marry some rich dude she took a ride on jeff bezos and that's how she got her free ride up into

01:06:33.100 space there was no merit behind that it's exactly right so the other the final piece i want to know

01:06:39.700 is that she she says she's gone to space okay according to gail their actual astronauts mirrored

01:06:46.360 the flight path of alan shepard and how does sanchez bezos synopsize this for the students

01:06:54.200 the coolest thing ever ever which is right on par with her other rhetoric about this trip

01:07:02.220 even after the fact listen to this out there it's dark it's like death

01:07:10.480 wow wow dark that that is one of the things that inspired us

01:07:17.460 to get these mugs made.

01:07:20.560 Zach, it's got our own label on there

01:07:23.680 and it reads so dark, so quiet.

01:07:26.800 We also have ones that read nothing frivolous,

01:07:29.200 don't call it a ride.

01:07:30.720 You could also get a hat.

01:07:32.600 Is this stuff still available on our website, Steve?

01:07:34.440 Let me know.

01:07:35.220 But in any event, she's the one who inspired this quote.

01:07:37.980 There's another one where she talks about how quiet,

01:07:39.820 how quiet, so quiet.

01:07:42.140 In any event, that's Lauren Sanchez Bezos

01:07:44.540 and it's amazing to me that the writer

01:07:46.960 did not understand how off putting this is going to be and how the New York Times went ahead with

01:07:51.820 this, given the amount of suffering in our country right now. The economy is the number

01:07:56.000 one issue for everybody, left or right. They're very disappointed in how Trump is handling it.

01:08:00.320 And they actually expected them to celebrate this. It's crazy. I mean, again, especially

01:08:04.880 the New York Times, the, you know, the prestige that they seem to hold themselves up with,

01:08:11.040 it's self prompted, but they, you know, they think that they're very prestigious,

01:08:15.540 yet they're giving pieces like this as if they're readers as if americans care about this sort of

01:08:22.180 thing like it was bad enough that we had to watch them all go to space and have katie perry sing and

01:08:28.140 put a flower in the camera for instagram and like it's bad enough that we already had to live through

01:08:32.940 that and then now we have to have a fluff piece on lauren sanchez's gratitude list in the morning

01:08:39.320 and bragging about you know her fun little girl's trip to space i mean i was considering going there

01:08:44.580 for the summer. Maybe, maybe I'll take a little girl's trip to space this summer. Megan. Zach, 0.55

01:08:50.260 I'm going to send you a mug that reads woke up sexy as hell again. I'll put it right next to

01:08:55.320 my Megan Markle candle collection. You'll have your terrible gifts from a Megan and your great

01:09:02.420 gifts from a Megan. Okay. Let's keep going. Blake Lively, even more insufferable. Lauren Sanchez

01:09:09.060 Bezos is not a bad person. I actually have like no anger in my heart toward her. I think she's 0.67

01:09:13.440 kind of absurd. And she's fun to mock, let's be honest. But she doesn't seem bad to me. Blake 0.99

01:09:19.140 Lively seems bad. Blake Lively is trying to ruin the life of a man who did nothing to her other

01:09:26.220 than cast her in his movie and try to make her happy. And yet there is no making Blake Lively

01:09:33.320 happy. That's what seems clear. There's no making her happy. And when he finally stood up for

01:09:38.660 himself. She went legal, went nuclear, and tried to smear him in the public. And now we get her 1.00

01:09:45.580 damage demand, which is out of this world. She's not the only, Lauren Sanchez Bezos is not the 0.83

01:09:51.980 only thing that was out of this world. She wants $296 million from him. She says this is because

01:10:02.960 she suffered the mean girl and bully labels thanks to his bad behavior. And this caused her

01:10:11.180 lost earnings between 41 and 87 million, lost profits on her businesses between 39 and 143

01:10:21.260 million, pain and suffering, physical pain and humiliation in the range of 250,000 to 400,000,

01:10:29.480 reputational harm, attributable to alleged defamation to the tune of about $24 million,

01:10:36.540 other reputational harm in an amount of approximately $36 to $40 million, and she wants punitive

01:10:42.240 damages, meaning they would be trebled, tripled. Whatever she gets in actual damages, she wants 0.98

01:10:48.560 tripled, and she wants all attorney's fees and costs to be paid for by Justin Baldoni, again,

01:10:56.520 because she says that he created an image of her

01:11:00.380 as a bully, a mean girl, and quote, tone deaf. 0.55

01:11:05.000 And that was all attributable 0.96

01:11:06.380 to his retaliatory campaign against her

01:11:09.960 for complaining about sexual harassment

01:11:12.860 on the set of their movie, It Ends With Us.

01:11:15.640 He got his PR honchos doing all of that

01:11:17.940 and everybody would have seen the truth,

01:11:19.720 which is Blake Lively is absolutely lovely

01:11:22.160 if it hadn't been for the big, bad, retaliatory Justin Baldoni.

01:11:28.220 Thoughts?

01:11:28.700 Yeah, she had a stellar reputation before all of this.

01:11:31.820 She never had anybody dislike her,

01:11:35.480 especially after her gossip girl days.

01:11:38.180 I mean, it's so insane.

01:11:39.740 First of all, I want to cost her a few more millions. 0.98

01:11:41.540 So I'm going to say bully, bully, bully, 0.99

01:11:43.060 mean girl, mean girl, mean girl, tone deaf. 0.99

01:11:45.920 So hopefully that was a few extra mil that we can cost her 1.00

01:11:48.420 in this alleged smear campaign that I guess we're all part of, 0.63

01:11:51.700 even though I've repeatedly told the internet and Blake Lively that my disdain for her is purely

01:11:57.080 organic, USDA certified organic disdain for Blake Lively. And it goes back years before this,

01:12:03.920 because I used to know people that used to work at her preserve company, and they've never had

01:12:07.940 stellar stories to share about their experience working for her. And even her career in Hollywood

01:12:14.640 was never stellar. She was always known as somebody that was difficult to work with. Those

01:12:19.900 rumors were always following her she was lucky to find someone like ryan reynolds who was so

01:12:24.920 likable and charismatic and funny and i've even said if he is going to testify at trial he's

01:12:30.560 probably her best asset but where she's really gonna hurt is when she has to sit on you know

01:12:36.740 sit up in front of the jury and testify before them because she thinks that she's likable and

01:12:42.340 i believe that she believes that in her head but when the jury actually sees her tone deaf

01:12:47.480 is going to land they are going to actually see her in her own words believe this narrative that 0.92

01:12:54.780 was crafted about her with this smear campaign it's just ridiculous and now she wants everybody 1.00

01:12:59.920 to feel bad that she lost millions and millions of dollars in a lawsuit that was purely voluntary 0.56

01:13:06.080 she's continued to push this forward she didn't need to she put him in the basement and that

01:13:11.940 should have been enough put baldoni in the basement and be done with it but she wanted to 0.57

01:13:15.720 end him and now it's coming back to bite her yeah at the premiere of her own movie she unfollowed

01:13:20.980 him on instagram she had the rest of the cast unfollow him and he understood full well what 1.00

01:13:25.880 she was doing to him he hired pr people to defend him against her aggression her mean girl girl

01:13:32.360 behavior not the other way around and that's what the jury is going to hear when um she gets cross

01:13:37.860 examined meanwhile here's her husband ryan reynolds sitting down with uh the today show

01:13:43.600 and Willie Geist on April 19th.

01:13:46.000 Listen here, SOT30.

01:13:47.400 The spotlight obviously has its benefits,

01:13:49.700 but it can be hard to.

01:13:51.020 You and Blake for the last year and a half

01:13:52.620 have gone through this very public legal proceeding.

01:13:56.860 How have you guys managed that as a family?

01:14:00.060 You know, you really see kind of the illusion

01:14:01.800 behind so much of this stuff,

01:14:03.860 you know, digital life versus real life.

01:14:05.600 Really, without getting into it too much,

01:14:06.900 I'll just say I've never in my life

01:14:08.760 been more proud of my wife.

01:14:11.000 Really.

01:14:13.600 people have no idea what's really going on you know and that's a and i've just never in my life

01:14:21.000 been more proud of someone with that level of integrity that brings that with them and carries

01:14:24.860 that with them in everything that they do do you think that's sincere um i think they're so 0.99

01:14:31.720 delusional that they believe their own bullshit and i think i think he's trying to convince 0.99

01:14:36.420 himself of that but i think he has to convince himself of that to make this all worth it 0.99

01:14:41.440 considering it's hurting their reputations it's clearly hurting their bank account which i don't

01:14:46.460 feel sorry for i mean you're crying about losing 40 million dollars but yet you have at least 100

01:14:51.060 million that you've already poured into just this lawsuit alone which is ridiculous um yeah i don't

01:14:56.820 know if i believe that their marriage is going to sustain this because i just i there has to be too

01:15:02.820 much stress on them and if it goes the way i think many of us are thinking it's going to go which is

01:15:07.320 not in her favor, then I don't know how their marriage survives that. I think they'll try to

01:15:12.380 hold on to it as long as they possibly can until they can't anymore. Now, we know that Blake Lively

01:15:19.980 and or her people watch the Megyn Kelly show. We know that because we've heard from them about our

01:15:25.380 coverage and we were subpoenaed by her for this lawsuit. They sent us a subpoena demanding all

01:15:33.440 documents related to segments that we had done about blake lively in response to which we told 0.97

01:15:39.340 her to fuck off and won that battle and so if she's watching this right now zach peter what 0.92

01:15:46.500 would be your advice to her here we are a month out less than uh from the start of that trial 1.00

01:15:51.980 my advice to her would be to go on the stand and give us like really tell us about the pain

01:15:58.960 that you suffered at the hands of this retaliation campaign i want her to give us amber heard tears 1.00

01:16:04.980 give us a performance because the jury is going to laugh her out of that courtroom

01:16:10.220 she's never been likable her interview i mean i'm sure right now she's training and studying to try

01:16:16.420 and you know give her best um actress performance like this is really going to be her oscar worthy

01:16:21.820 performance but i don't think she's a great enough actress to be able to pull this off but i want her 0.80

01:16:25.440 to cry about her dog stepping on a beat like Amber Heard did. I want her to give us all of that.

01:16:31.800 That way the jury can really see who they're dealing with, the monster that they're dealing

01:16:36.380 with. I would love to see it, but here's my actual advice. You are kind of Blake in the

01:16:44.280 situation that President Trump is in with respect to the Iran war. This needs to end,

01:16:49.340 but you need to save face in the process of it ending. What you need is a Pakistan, 1.00

01:16:55.440 some third party who you can go to to say, you initiate an end to this. And we'll just pretend 1.00

01:17:01.960 that like you came to me saying we should have negotiations. And because it was such a reasonable

01:17:07.020 third party, I said, okay, for you, I'll do it for you. I'll institute a ceasefire and I'll enter

01:17:11.740 into the negotiations. Meanwhile, it was you all along. It's fine. Everyone's willing to give you

01:17:16.660 this fig leaf just to see this thing come to an end. We don't actually, I mean, it'd be great for

01:17:21.220 the media to see this trial to happen, but I think most people would prefer no. It's a spectacle and

01:17:25.700 Justin doesn't deserve to be put through this. What you need is a Pakistan. You need some third 1.00

01:17:31.460 party to come in to say, let me try to save it. And I nominate Taylor Swift. She is the one who

01:17:40.140 can do it as the former friend of Blake, as somebody who, you know, within the Hollywood

01:17:45.560 crowd is universally beloved, could say, for the good of both of you, I am going to try to

01:17:52.200 encourage you to settle this and put this. And if if the power of Taylor Swift can make this

01:17:58.440 thing go away, I think the nation would be very grateful. Blake Lively should be on her knees

01:18:04.060 thanking her. She can do it. And I think Justin Baldoni would be thrilled if she just dropped her

01:18:08.280 claims. And Taylor has the perfect bargaining chip. Here's a wedding invite. Take it and shut

01:18:14.400 down this lawsuit and blake will do it that's the only thing that'll get her because she did have a 1.00

01:18:19.240 pakistan though megan and that was judge lyman gutting her case and throwing out 10 of her 13 1.00

01:18:24.920 claims so she could then be like the laws as against women you know the you know the protections 0.99

01:18:31.080 that i should have had aren't there so you know what i'm going to focus my efforts on protecting 1.00

01:18:35.340 women in the workplace with my new philanthropic efforts moving forward and that's what she should 1.00

01:18:39.940 have done. She didn't take the loss. She didn't take the golden ticket opportunity, which was to

01:18:45.580 be able to walk away from this and not let her lose. You know, she could say the judge threw it

01:18:50.240 out because of a technicality or whatever she wanted to say. She could have spun it and she 1.00

01:18:54.020 missed that. But now she needs the Taylor Swift invitation, a wedding invite.

01:18:58.040 Yeah, I like that. And if she if she drives a hard bargain, she can ratchet it up to bridesmaid, 1.00

01:19:03.100 maybe even matron of honor, right? 0.67

01:19:06.020 Like it's not, in order for me to show you as Pakistan, 0.54

01:19:10.720 as the Henry Kissinger of our time,

01:19:13.860 I'm gonna need a title at this wedding.

01:19:16.300 I'm gonna need a featured role.

01:19:17.480 I'm gonna need to be in the Vanity Fair or Vogue pictures.

01:19:21.440 And everyone's gonna have to say nice things about me.

01:19:23.920 Yeah, why not officiate?

01:19:26.240 Taylor, this is a golden opportunity for you to look

01:19:29.040 like this benevolent peacemaker.

01:19:31.360 I think everybody wins. 1.00

01:19:33.100 If Taylor plays Pakistan. 1.00

01:19:35.040 Okay. 0.88

01:19:35.700 And that's advice you won't hear on any other program.

01:19:37.460 That's a special for the MK show today.

01:19:39.760 I do want to show what's actually going to happen at the trial because if she doesn't

01:19:45.140 listen to us, Zach, and she should, she's going to take the stand and Brian Friedman

01:19:51.000 is going to eat her for lunch.

01:19:53.760 It is going to be like a, like a wolf devouring a chicken in the field with like the bloody

01:20:00.780 mouth and the canine teeth sharp and not any sort of remorse about doing it. It's going to be awful

01:20:08.560 for her and for her reputation. And I know of what I speak because not only is he my long-term

01:20:14.900 personal lawyer and friend, he cross-examined me. That's how we met. He was opposing counsel

01:20:20.800 in this dispute I had with a former agent. And while he didn't do that to me, he was extremely

01:20:26.780 effective in that litigation. Not effective enough because I didn't have any exposure.

01:20:31.460 Anyway, my point is simply, he's going to go for it and she's not going to enjoy it.

01:20:37.900 Here are some of the things that we are going to see. We played a couple of these earlier this

01:20:41.340 week, but we can't get out of a Blake Lively segment without watching her diminish Kirstie

01:20:46.460 Fla of the Netherlands as she tried to interview Blake in a 2016 interview for Blake's film

01:20:53.680 Cafe Society. Blake's sitting next to Parker Posey, who somehow we forgot to notice is almost

01:20:59.680 as bad. She's equally almost awful in this clip, but here they are. First of all, congrats on your

01:21:06.100 little bump. Congrats on your little bump. What about my bump? You've got two nice ones.

01:21:15.480 They are kind of bumps, aren't they? No, not bumps. The lovely lady lumps. Check it out.

01:21:22.120 Thank you, thank you.

01:21:23.760 Do you like the movie?

01:21:24.880 Are you a Woody Allen fan?

01:21:25.960 I love most of his movies,

01:21:27.360 and this one was so, like, visually amazing.

01:21:30.400 Yeah, it's gorgeous.

01:21:31.560 Did you guys love wearing those kind of clothes that you...

01:21:34.760 Yeah.

01:21:35.580 And, you know, working in digital...

01:21:37.020 Everyone wants to talk about the clothes,

01:21:38.080 but I wonder if they would ask the men about the clothes.

01:21:41.000 I would.

01:21:41.820 I love Jesse's suits and how he...

01:21:44.620 That's what I'm saying.

01:21:45.460 His wardrobe was beautiful.

01:21:47.000 I know, everybody.

01:21:47.500 Cory's wardrobe was, of course, those high-waisted pants.

01:21:50.800 He's so great.

01:21:51.500 I would wish men wore high-waisted pants like that still.

01:21:54.900 Me too.

01:21:55.240 Or their father with his tank top in his head.

01:21:58.140 Oh, it's so good. 0.87

01:21:59.100 Yeah, it's not just the women that have the clothes. 0.99

01:22:02.560 But I feel like the women get the conversation, 1.00

01:22:04.360 but it's like. 1.00

01:22:06.400 Oh my God, Zach. 0.97

01:22:08.620 Bully, mean girl, tone deaf. 0.99

01:22:12.040 Bully, mean girl, tone deaf. 1.00

01:22:13.720 That is the energy you're getting from that clip

01:22:16.400 that is really what set the internet on fire.

01:22:20.540 I always said that the I agreed that that the little bump video, this video that we just watched, I do agree that that was kind of, you know, the ember that burned down her reputation for sure.

01:22:34.060 But it's because it went viral. And as TikTok does, when something goes viral, then everybody jumps in on the fight and then everybody shares their battle stories.

01:22:44.100 they share their video clips with Blake, which is what happened. And it just, I think Blake and

01:22:49.980 her team are so out of touch with how digital media works. And now they want to call it digital

01:22:55.800 violence, digital warfare, the terms that she's using to describe this, which is wild. I mean,

01:23:01.340 she commits digital violence against me every time I have to see her face.

01:23:06.860 And the thing about that clip was interesting. It was shot in 2016, but she said it aired,

01:23:12.260 her employer did air it in the netherlands but it got re-released that clip got re-released on

01:23:19.200 the internet right around the time of it ends with us so it was and that's when it went viral

01:23:24.780 unfortunately for blake because people were speculating what was going on between justin

01:23:29.660 blake because she put him in the basement she wouldn't have him near the cast which she knew

01:23:33.620 would cause speculation and it did because everybody like myself we were wondering was

01:23:38.360 there any drama on set and then the most common narrative because most of us didn't really know

01:23:43.120 who justin baladoni was unless you were the biggest jane the virgin fan but most of us were

01:23:47.520 then thinking was blake being difficult on set is blake behind this what was the dynamic did they

01:23:53.520 not get along if they're the two love interests in this movie and they're not doing any press

01:23:57.420 together so that fueled that speculation and then that's when you know shirstie flock came out and

01:24:02.880 she's like here's the video like she is a bully she's always been this way here's an old interview 0.95

01:24:08.480 clip that i have when you know i i forgot what movie they were doing promo for but she's like

01:24:13.800 when she was promoting this film cafe society yes and so when she's promoting this film sure she's

01:24:18.760 like here's the whole clip you know here's you can see it you can see her you know basically

01:24:24.260 taking a shot at my body you know body shaming me which and i believe sure she's opened up about it 1.00

01:24:30.400 I think she had some fertility issues, which also just cuts even deeper.

01:24:34.380 So it just it's it's insane that she's taken it this far from her behavior.

01:24:41.580 If you saw nothing else about Blake Lively, you saw no other clips.

01:24:45.280 You would know who she was from that clip.

01:24:47.200 You would know that's not I'm having a bad day. 0.99

01:24:49.500 That's you are a bad person.

01:24:51.760 She had come out publicly with her pregnancy prior to this.

01:24:54.900 She had just come out with it and she was showing.

01:24:57.980 And as the interviewer, obviously, you'd love to get her to comment on it on camera.

01:25:03.000 She had just publicly commented on it, so it wasn't off limits.

01:25:06.440 And you'd love for her to be like, oh, yeah, we're so excited.

01:25:09.140 You know, this is our fourth baby and we can't wait.

01:25:10.960 That's it.

01:25:11.320 That's all she had to say.

01:25:12.500 It's a nice way to acknowledge this human life that you are about to bring into the world. 1.00

01:25:17.040 Don't be such an asshole, Blake. 1.00

01:25:19.620 And then to turn around, I like, oh, you have a nice baby bump. 1.00

01:25:23.620 What?

01:25:24.580 And you never comment on that.

01:25:26.400 every man knows you don't say that to a woman. It wasn't real. The girl didn't actually have any 0.87

01:25:30.340 sort of a bump. She was just saying it to like push her, push her down. But you never say that 1.00

01:25:35.000 because you never know what a woman is going through when it comes to her fertility journey.

01:25:38.060 Never say that. And sure enough, she stepped on a rake because this gal was having fertility 1.00

01:25:43.100 issues and it was painful for her. And then what you see is like, Kirstie's interesting to watch

01:25:49.880 in the whole clip because she's, you know, she's, she's an attractive woman, but like across from

01:25:55.040 Blake Lively, most of us look not that great. And so Blake is there. She's gorgeous. Of course,

01:26:00.540 you can't take that away from her. And Christy's sitting there kind of awkward now. She's made to

01:26:05.720 feel awkward by the attack on her. She's not trying to offend Blake. She's actually trying

01:26:10.820 to do a nice interview to make her look good, talk about your baby. That actually makes you 1.00

01:26:15.640 less threatening to women at home. Blake, if you're not an idiot, you'd see that. 1.00

01:26:18.960 and instead she's on the receiving end 1.00

01:26:22.240 of now both of them attacking her

01:26:24.260 and she tries to bridge away like,

01:26:26.680 oh, you know, the fashion

01:26:27.640 and if you've seen Cafe Society, it is amazing.

01:26:30.480 It goes back in time and it's like time travel

01:26:33.660 and the costuming is absolutely stunning in the movie

01:26:36.340 so it's a normal thing to remark on

01:26:38.180 but Blake's got to take it as a sexist slight. 0.52

01:26:42.460 You know, she's got to 0.98

01:26:43.060 and it's more evidence of her perceiving an offense

01:26:47.220 and like an attack on her where none exists, Zach,

01:26:51.240 which is right at the heart of everything she's saying

01:26:54.920 against Justin Baldoni.

01:26:56.220 We can watch her doing it

01:26:57.880 to this innocent, sweet journalist 0.57

01:27:00.600 before our very eyes.

01:27:02.700 It's a very damning clip for her.

01:27:05.340 It just, it shows you, like you said,

01:27:08.020 exactly who she is.

01:27:10.140 And the fact that she got Parker to jump in on it

01:27:13.760 then adds context to, yeah,

01:27:15.380 now when we see isabella ferrer and jenny slate who are and calling hoover like you see the way

01:27:21.560 blake you know baits you into then sitting there and being a cackling mean girl and we saw and

01:27:27.140 again the hard part is it's not like with this alleged smear campaign it's not like there were

01:27:32.380 false headlines that were being pushed out about blake lively it's her own behavior her own words

01:27:38.600 this is video footage you're watching her behavior and so even if that went viral i mean and

01:27:45.140 we don't know if she says that there's no proof. It's, it's untraceable is the term that she likes

01:27:51.240 to use as to why she can't prove it, which untraceable really just means lack of evidence

01:27:55.200 in my opinion. And so for me, it's like, it's your own behavior. Nobody crafted this narrative,

01:28:02.880 but you. Yeah, that is mean girl behavior right there. And then the two of them for the listening 1.00

01:28:08.340 audience, Parker Posey and Blake Lively, refuse to look at the reporter again. They only look at

01:28:16.100 each other and they do their little mean girl thing like, oh, what about this guy's fashion,

01:28:19.280 that guy's fashion? And also what about him? He looks fabulous. It's so passive aggressive,

01:28:24.740 it oozes passive aggression against their bullies because this reporter is of, again,

01:28:32.020 with respect, lesser importance. And I'm just saying in terms of like the world that they're

01:28:38.320 in at the moment, you know, like these two are the stars. It's, she's lucky to get 10 minutes

01:28:43.120 with them. She's, as a reporter, we're always like the, the lower ones, like running after access

01:28:47.900 and a, a, a gracious celebrity will pretend that's not the dynamic and that there's an equality in 1.00

01:28:57.440 that room. Or if anything, the really gracious ones will actually treat you like you're above

01:29:01.600 them. You know, like they're honored to be with you, which is like, those are the nicest ones.

01:29:06.700 I mean, I could name them on one hand who have done that with me, and it's been so delightful.

01:29:11.220 I mean, the one who's coming to mind, believe it or not, but there are others, was Christopher Plummer, Captain Von Trapp of Sound of Music, who I got the pleasure of interviewing before he passed.

01:29:20.520 But anyway, but she does exactly the opposite.

01:29:23.380 She commits the ultimate sin, which is she treats her like a serf, and so does Parker Posey. 1.00

01:29:28.080 we're not even going to look at you we're going to mock you and cover you in disdain for having

01:29:33.620 the nerve to ask about a facet of the movie that unbeknownst to you we didn't want to talk about

01:29:40.880 but you also i mean you and i have been in press junkets before you're given a limited amount of

01:29:47.520 time with these people that your questions are numbered and like and so you're and when you

01:29:52.440 already have that i'm sure in in shirstie's head she's already thinking of okay well of the questions

01:29:57.120 that i had which ones are not going to offend her like you're throwing her off her game then you're

01:30:01.200 eating up all her time as the two of you are just cackling and not giving her any sort of

01:30:05.260 acknowledgement knowing that there's a limited amount of time that she has with you and then

01:30:09.800 you're using it to you know to troll her essentially right in front of her eating up this

01:30:16.320 time that she has affecting her job because then now she has very little footage that she gets to 0.97

01:30:21.460 take back to her news agency that she runs to do her job effectively so that they have a headline

01:30:26.400 or a soundbite or something that they can use. 1.00

01:30:29.280 Yeah, it's so rude.

01:30:31.800 No, I'm actually not pregnant.

01:30:33.300 I'm having trouble getting pregnant.

01:30:35.340 I'm not walking around with Ryan Reynolds' baby,

01:30:38.540 having just finished a Woody Allen film

01:30:40.700 in which I was treated like a queen.

01:30:43.040 I don't have that going on right now, Ms. Lively.

01:30:47.380 I'm sorry.

01:30:48.720 I mean, it's like she should have been thanking this reporter

01:30:51.200 for just holding her tongue,

01:30:53.160 not speaking out about it for years

01:30:54.900 and letting Cafe Society hit

01:30:56.880 without this bad publicity hitting then

01:30:58.540 and not sticking the knife in

01:31:00.300 because we would have been on,

01:31:02.160 is it Shirstie?

01:31:03.800 Is that how you pronounce that?

01:31:04.320 Shirstie, yeah.

01:31:05.360 It's, you know, okay.

01:31:06.520 We would have been on Shirstie's side

01:31:08.220 from the beginning as we all are now.

01:31:10.620 All right, I'm gonna take a quick break.

01:31:11.960 We're gonna come back.

01:31:12.660 We're not done.

01:31:13.260 Don't go away, Zach Peter.

01:31:15.260 Paying 70, 80, $90 a month to big wireless

01:31:18.400 for unlimited data is insane.

01:31:20.860 Especially when Pure Talk is going to give you

01:31:22.820 unlimited high-speed data

01:31:24.260 for just $34.99 a month. Unlimited high-speed data at Pure Talk used to start at $55 a month,

01:31:31.440 but because Pure Talk is constantly pushing to give you more for less, you can now get

01:31:35.640 unlimited high-speed data for just under $35. How about that? So if you've looked at Pure Talk

01:31:42.360 before and didn't make the move, check again. The deal is amazing. And if you're wondering,

01:31:47.080 is Pure Talk's network really as good as the overpriced big guys, try it out for 30 days

01:31:51.440 with no contract and no cancellation fees. You have nothing to lose except all these extra

01:31:57.540 expenses. Their U.S. customer service team is standing by to help you switch in as little as

01:32:02.500 10 minutes. You just dial pound 250 and say Megyn Kelly. That will help you claim this unlimited

01:32:08.500 high-speed data for just $34.99. Again, dial pound 250, say Megyn Kelly to switch to America's 1.00

01:32:16.300 wireless company, Pure Talk. If you are exhausted, foggy, anxious, or if your metabolism's flatlined

01:32:24.400 and doctors chalk it up to age, you might just be getting ignored because that is not necessarily

01:32:30.080 just a part of getting older. And it's why Joy and Blokes exists. Joy was built for women who

01:32:35.860 have been dismissed by the medical establishment for far too long. And Blokes was built for men 0.99

01:32:41.300 who are tired of feeling like a shadow of who they used to be. Together, they are changing how

01:32:46.000 men and women take control of their hormonal health for far too long. This has been ignored

01:32:51.420 and it's a hugely important part of how you feel. Every Joy and Blokes lab comes with a 30 to 60

01:34:04.220 It's bold, no BS news, only on the Megyn Kelly channel, Sirius XM 111, and on the Sirius XM app.

01:34:15.840 Zach Peter is back with me. He is the host of No Filter with Zach Peter.

01:34:20.040 So Zach, we've gone from, I'm bringing booty back, every inch of me is perfect from the bottom to the top, 1.00

01:34:27.020 From Meghan Trainor, who celebrated body positivity even for the larger-sized girls, to this, we've got Ozempic Meghan Trainor, who is as skinny as they come. 1.00

01:34:40.220 Look at this. 0.91

01:34:41.300 She is literally unrecognizable in the promo video for her new album, which is called Toy With Me.

01:34:50.020 Singing and dancing around.

01:34:52.200 If she's 120 pounds, it's a lot. 1.00

01:34:54.920 putting further evidence to the lie 1.00

01:34:58.600 that she was telling us before. 0.65

01:35:00.940 She didn't think she was perfect 0.90

01:35:02.620 from the bottom to the top. 0.90

01:35:04.360 That was a bunch of nonsense. 0.95

01:35:06.620 She wanted to be skinny all along, 0.90

01:35:08.620 but she was happy to tout obesity and extra weight

01:35:13.480 as a great lifestyle choice,

01:35:15.560 irrespective of what it did to young girls

01:35:18.400 and their health.

01:35:20.000 While all the while, 1.00

01:35:20.840 she was obviously clearly pining for a skinny body, 0.96

01:35:24.280 which she is clearly getting thanks to a shot nowadays your thoughts on it i mean body 0.98

01:35:29.700 positivity sure went right out the window the second there was convenience then they just

01:35:34.560 completely obliterated i mean what happened to the days of of megan being so brave megan she was so

01:35:40.700 brave and now we're not brave anymore like i don't understand where they like they didn't even shift

01:35:47.080 the messaging to like you know they just abandoned the whole body positivity narrative and i mean

01:35:53.840 even Lizzo's out here performing, like posing with her old, her larger body. It's, it's crazy

01:36:00.540 how much they've just completely abolished the whole body positivity movement. Yes, it was all

01:36:07.260 bullshit. Here is Meghan Trainor back in 2014 in an interview with the Guardian. Any body type is 1.00

01:36:13.780 beautiful. It's all about loving what you got and rocking with it. 2015 interview with Elle magazine.

01:36:20.340 I've always hated the word plus size.

01:36:22.300 It bugs me.

01:36:23.140 When I first signed up with Full Beauty Clothing Company

01:36:25.440 and I talked to them, I was like,

01:36:26.980 I don't wanna be labeled as this plus size girl coming in.

01:36:29.580 And they said, absolutely not.

01:36:30.780 We don't like that term either,

01:36:32.120 which is why we like to say full beauty

01:36:35.300 and why I was immediately excited to work with them.

01:36:38.020 The word plus size should be gone.

01:36:40.360 It's full beauty.

01:36:42.160 But what we have now is quarter beauty, I guess,

01:36:45.700 is she is a quarter of her prior size. 0.96

01:36:47.820 And I really wonder what she's going to say now to all the girls who she encouraged to be as fat as they wanted to be, eat the chips, go for the full Coca-Cola, have the second dessert and the second helping, who are now looking at this stick figure, which were mocked, stick figures were mocked in that song too, thinking, what happened to the rest of her?

01:37:10.580 What happened to embracing your full body and full beauty, Megan? 1.00

01:37:16.480 It's just such bullshit. 0.99

01:37:17.520 I would have much preferred her to be like, I'm heavy. 1.00

01:37:19.940 I wish I could lose the weight, but I've struggled and I can't.

01:37:22.340 Then to be like, no, I love being this size.

01:37:25.140 It's beautiful. 1.00

01:37:26.140 And then as soon as the damn shot came, she went. 1.00

01:37:29.860 Yeah, which just goes to show she didn't love her body. 1.00

01:37:33.280 It was total bullshit. 1.00

01:37:34.540 She was lying through her teeth trying to convince people of this. 1.00

01:37:38.500 But the thing is, because celebrities love to get on their soapbox and they love to be 0.61

01:37:42.300 able to tote how they're feeling because they're going to change the world, right?

01:37:45.700 So she wanted to be a representation and she wanted to share with the world that it's okay

01:37:50.680 to be a bigger bodied person. And yet then the second that she had an opportunity to just take 0.72

01:37:57.540 a shot and let it go away, she did. And, and how is she going to explain that to all the little

01:38:02.620 girls that she told to eat their feelings? She mocked stick figure Barbie dolls. That's what 1.00

01:38:10.920 Chimak, let's play that promo one more time. Stick figure Barbie dolls. Look what she looks 0.97

01:38:16.360 like now. That's exactly, that seems to have been her motivation for this scene. She's in

01:38:21.900 like tight, tight leggings that go right below her knees for our listening audience. And what 0.96

01:38:27.060 looks like a, like a bathing suit over it, super tight, tiny waist. And her hair is in one of the 0.76

01:38:32.400 ponytails that comes out of the top of your head, all blonde and flippy. She looks like a Barbie 0.91

01:38:37.560 doll. She's a stick figure Barbie doll. She's a fraud. Were you lying then or are you lying now? 0.99

01:38:42.720 Which is it? Who's the real Meghan Trainor? Because you should at least be honest about your 180 on

01:38:49.380 the issue of weight and what's beautiful. You were the one who mocked the stick figures. You,

01:38:55.540 Meghan Trainor, not the rest of us. You did that. So which is it? Okay. Last but not least,

01:39:02.140 the lady. Zach, I saw you recently, like not understanding the fact that Sheriff Nanos

01:39:10.800 got out there and actually updated us that they had quote, found Nancy. They released like a

01:39:19.280 flyer and it even looks like Nancy says missing person found Nancy. It looks like her located.

01:39:27.640 And amazingly, it was someone named Nancy Radakovich, who is not Nancy Guthrie.

01:39:33.360 Thoughts on where we are on that case.

01:39:35.440 Wild.

01:39:35.960 I mean, I don't know if they thought that there would be some sort of narrative spin

01:39:39.260 where people would misinterpret it.

01:39:41.200 But the level of outrage, I was outraged.

01:39:43.380 At first when I saw that they found Nancy and they don't they don't list the last name.

01:39:48.220 They just say Nancy has been located.

01:39:50.460 That was the exact post that that the Pima County Sheriff's Department released.

01:39:54.040 Nancy has been located.

01:39:55.140 And then I actually looked into the case once I found out that they had Nancy 2.0 and it wasn't the OG Nancy.

01:40:02.420 And then I found out that this lady was barely even missing. 0.87

01:40:04.960 She was gone for a couple of hours.

01:40:07.100 They reported her missing at 3.50 and then she was home by 7.50 that same day.

01:40:13.900 That lady wasn't even missing.

01:40:16.640 I want them to find the real Nancy. 0.97

01:40:19.900 The lady.

01:40:20.780 Do you think they ever will? 0.84

01:40:22.160 No.

01:40:22.400 and if they do they're not going to have any shred of any you know the body i think will be too

01:40:28.920 done unfortunately i just think if she was going to be found by now they would have found her by

01:40:34.200 now if they wanted to find her by now she would have been found that out sadly that is how it
