Speaker 1 (00:01):
From Los Angeles, the phrank.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
And one and only Pere Perez Kilton, everybody, Welcome to
the PHP. Booker Perez, congratulations on your subpoena.

Speaker 1 (00:22):
Thank you very much. We will be talking about that,
of course, and also, gosh, so much drama, all of
this craziness with the Cold Place CEO. I feel like
that's just his name now, the Cold Place CEO, even
though he's not the Cold Place CEO. So we'll talk
about that. We'll talk about all the drama on late

(00:45):
night television with Colbert and possibly more to come, and
a lot else to get to as well. But first
a couple of unpleasant, sad things to talk about, and
then we'll talk about our lives to cleanse the air.
But let's just start with the heavy stuff first. Sending
positive vibes to Kate Beckhamsale. Her mother died after a

(01:07):
battle with cancer. Awful because I think her stepfather also
died not that long ago, and you know, she loved
him very much, So now she's without parents and that's
a big adjustment. Also very sad. God, this is crazy.
We don't know the details yet, but Dog the bounty hunter,
his stepson allegedly quote accidentally shot and killed his thirteen

(01:35):
year old son.

Speaker 2 (01:37):
Jesus, I don't even know what you said. Yeah, it's
just awful.

Speaker 1 (01:42):
So how you been.

Speaker 2 (01:45):
Well? We said goodbye to George yesterdays, so I'm sorry
I cannot provide any damnit things to say. Yeah, it's
been a very If I talk about it too much on.

Speaker 1 (01:56):
His crime war, oh well, let's not talk about it. Obviously.
Some of you might have heard I am officially now
a victim of subpoena Serena. I am part of the
very large club now of others that have also been
subpoenaed by the former Gossip Girl actress. I mean, I

(02:20):
don't care. I'm not going to read everything that she's
asking of me, or do you want me to.

Speaker 2 (02:23):
I am intrigued to try to figure out what the
fuck they're doing this for, other than this is a
fishing expedition, is what it sounds like to me.

Speaker 1 (02:32):
I was going to tell you that, you know, the
entire subpoena. It's twenty two pages long. It does not
list anywhere a cause or reasons why they are subpoenaing me,
and I'm obviously not a lawyer. I find that odd,
like shouldn't there be a reason stated, like we are
serving this because we are under the assumption of this.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
I don't think so, because I recalled the last time
I was served. It just said, you know, I think
I was served by CBS. Oh God. And I don't
think it was twenty two pages. I think it was
just a couple of pages requesting my appearance at such
and such time, regarding whatever case number it was. And
I think that was it. I don't think they put

(03:14):
allegations in there. I think they just want to hear
your story, which to me sounds like a phishing expedition.

Speaker 1 (03:20):
Well, they ask for a lot, here is I'm gonna
cut me off whenever you're board. Request for production number one,
all documents and communications. Is this boring?

Speaker 2 (03:31):
No? Okay, I do want to know. Why are they
bothering you? You're just someone doing what you always do.

Speaker 1 (03:37):
Request for production number one all documents and communications concerning
any agreements, draft or final you have with anyone, including
but not limited to, Council for the Wayfarer Parties, that
were effective at any point from May one, twenty twenty
four through the present, without regard to the date of
drafting or execution.

Speaker 2 (03:57):
Okay, that's nothing unless you're not telling me something that
Wayfair was paying you to write stories or something which
there Now, that's not how it works right now.

Speaker 1 (04:06):
Yeah, I don't get it. Request for production Number two
All agreements, draft or final you have with anyone, including
but not limited to counsel for the Wayfair parties that
were effective at any point from May first, twenty twenty
four through the present, without regard to the date of drafting.
For a period of this time. I did have the
same lawyer as Justin Baldoni. So any communications with my lawyer,

(04:29):
I'm representing myself. I'm doing my research. I'm under the
assumption that those communications and like my agreement to pay
him to represent me for this matter or that matter,
that's all protected attorney client privileged information.

Speaker 2 (04:43):
Well, was he your attorney at that point, meaning were
you paying him? Yes, for information on this.

Speaker 1 (04:50):
No, that's not what they're asking. They're asking for any
documents and communications. I got to spend more time with it.
I don't know if she's subpoenaed the law as well. Okay,
the first one did not include council, but the second
one did, which is why I stopped and raised the
red flag. Right. So the second one mentions the Council
all agreements drafter final you have with anyone, including but

(05:12):
not limited to, Council for the Wayfarer Parties, that were
effective at any point from May first, twenty twenty four
through the present. Blah blah blah. Request for production number
three all documents and communications regarding your digital online content
creator or influencer services or strategy concerning the consolidated action
Miss Lively, mister Reynolds, any wayfair defender the digital complaint

(05:35):
in the market that is just so overly broad All
documents and communications that also, Okay, let me read that again.

Speaker 2 (05:42):
Look, I would just say it's all out there on
social media. What else is there unless you're communicating with
your staff on hey, let's do a story on this.

Speaker 1 (05:50):
No, but like, for example, this request for production number three,
all documents and communications regarding your digital online content creator
or influencer services or strategy concern if I was texting
you about the drama with Blake Lively, they would be
they would want that, right, That's what they're asking for
the way that this is worded, right, I guess if

(06:10):
I was texting another friend, if I was texting my sister,
if I was texting my neighbor, who's really interested in
all of this? How does it.

Speaker 2 (06:19):
Work because you are a member of the press, Like,
let's say you text me. Yeah, if you text me,
which you know, I don't fucking know anything. But if
you did text me, you are a reporter. Isn't it
privileged information? You talking to me, a source, a coworker
of wouldn't it be? I would think so, yes, Yeah,
I would think so too. So I don't know that's interesting.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
I'm not acknowledging that I did text you about this,
or that I did text my neighbor, that I did
text anybody, but this has definitely been a huge story
that everybody's been talking, gossiping about, and sharing. I read this,
I saw this anyways quickly Requests or production number four
All documents and communications concerning any statements, talking points, scripts, theories, assertions, questions, advertisement,

(07:03):
god claims or similar including preparations, yeah, preparation, revision and
timing of publication thereof concerning the consolidated action Miss Lively,
mister Reynolds, any wayfaireror defendant, the digital campaign, the marketing plan,
the film that we're made in connection with, or on
behalf of Wayfairer defendants or their council, requests for production

(07:24):
number five. All documents communications reflecting or concerning any payment, gift,
or favor related to, or resulting from, any formal or
informal agreement or understanding with any of the Wayfarer defendants
or their council.

Speaker 2 (07:36):
Another blank envelope you'll be giving.

Speaker 1 (07:39):
Them request for production Number six. All documents and communications
reflecting or concerning any statements or drafts provided to you
by any of the Wayfarer defendants or their council, including
in connection with any Google document or coworking platform. And
then parentheses all of those listed.

Speaker 2 (07:56):
All right, now, I'm getting bored. You're right.

Speaker 1 (07:58):
This is the last one. All documents and communications between
you and any wayfair or defendant, their counsel, or anyone
on their behalf concerning Miss Lively, mister Reynolds, the digital campaign,
the marketing plan, the film, or the consolidated action. So
I have had exclusives. I've said, you know, I've had
Baldoni's sources. I've never said who my sources are. My

(08:20):
sources could be the housekeeper that overheard shit in justin
Baldoni's home. My source could be Justin Baldoni's dog walker,
it could be his wife, it could be Justin Baldoni's brother. Right,
my sources are protected. You know, they're requesting information that
are from sources, and that's not legally sound. So I'm

(08:40):
representing myself. I'm getting my elwoods on.

Speaker 2 (08:43):
How do you answer that? Do you say I would
like to exercise my right to blah blah blah whatever,
you know, whatever right that is.

Speaker 1 (08:50):
Well, I spend a lot of time over the weekend
doing a lot of research, and you answer that legally
first by having a meet and confer, which is I
have to put Blake Lively's legal team on notice that
I have questions, that I'm confused, I'm seeking clarity, and
then I have objections. Then after I have had that

(09:13):
meeting with her legal team, then I am free. After
the obligation of the meet and confer is done, then
I can file a quote motion to quash, which I
would file with the court stating all of the legal
reasons and citing case law for why this subpoena request
is not proper and overly broad. So those are the

(09:36):
steps that are going to be happening, hopefully this week
or next week. I have fourteen days from service.

Speaker 2 (09:42):
This sounds like a pain in your ass to me,
is what it sounds.

Speaker 1 (09:45):
Like it is. But this is the podcast. What's the
worst that can happen? The worst that can happen? I
file the motion to quash. The motion to quash gets rejected,
then I do have time. Legally, I'm entitled to file
an appeal to the rejection. Let's say my appeal also
gets rejected. Okay, then what's the fucking worst case scenario?

(10:08):
I fucking give them everything. I'm not the one being sued, right,
There's literally nothing really bad that can happen to me
as a result of this.

Speaker 2 (10:19):
Yeah, and you know, I know you're very well versed
in the rules of that what you can say and
what you can't. You've learned those lessons the hard way
for the years. So but I just back to my
original statement. This sounds like a fishing expedition, Like this
is your reporting and everybody else's reporting, which has kind
of been the same.

Speaker 1 (10:39):
Yeah, more than a phishing expedition. To add on to
that which you touched upon but didn't emphasize, she has
subpoenat Google. She has subpoenaed also even x last week
we found out she's subpoenaing information about tons of creators,
many of whom are fighting back. But what you touched

(11:01):
upon was not only is it a phishing expedition, but
she also wants to make my life difficult. She also
wants to create a headache and perhaps a distraction to
maybe make me busier so that I don't cover this
all more. But that's just dumb as fuck, because she's
just giving me more material. So I genuinely think her.

Speaker 2 (11:22):
You, yeah, I've never understood. You could go back and
listen to the shows and my thoughts on this. I
find this all to be a colossal waste of everyone's time.
I don't understand the upside of this. The damage has
been done and she was holding the sword that did
the damage, and enough of that information I've seen on

(11:43):
my own. It's her own behavior. Yeah, and the way
she asks about things. That's where this perception is coming
from from the fans, from casual observers like myself. So
don't I don't understand the wasting of money and time,
and I just don't get just walk away from this.

(12:05):
But you know, you got two people, dug In.

Speaker 1 (12:07):
And people with unlimited financial resource.

Speaker 2 (12:09):
Yeah, I guess there you go. I mean, this has
become a job and a mission statement for these people
when god, there's just so many bigger things in the
world that you could focus on or love or I
don't know. This just seems wild to me that they're
still pressing on this. But hey, it's your money. I mean,
knock yourself out. But yeah, what a waste of time.

Speaker 1 (12:30):
And like I said, worst case scenario for me if
I blunder this, Oh well, no big deal. Yeah, you know,
it's not like I'm gonna be put in jail. The
thing is also like, if I would have had a
lawyer respond to all of this, it could have cost
me thousands of dollars.

Speaker 2 (12:46):
Yeah, fuck that, I'm cheap.

Speaker 1 (12:48):
We know this. Yeah, oh my god. You know, I
like to think that I don't know it all, but
I know a lot. And even I was caught off
guard by how big this Cold Place CEO situation has become.

Speaker 2 (13:04):
Here's the funniest thing. Because we did this story on
Thursday morning. No, we didn't cover the story. We actually
covered something else. Chris Martin, I think Gwyneth Paltrow. Yeah,
and I was it and I had just saw the
post the second before we started, and I almost brought
it up, and I was like, I should bring this
up because it's funny. Not in my wildest imagination that

(13:26):
I think that, even twenty four hours away from just that.
I'm telling you, it was a fleeting thought where I
was like, man, it doesn't matter, you know what I mean.
Maybe he saw the post, maybe he didn't see the post,
but it's wild. How big of a story this has been.

Speaker 1 (13:42):
Yeah, I think a few factors are at play. One,
it's in the middle of July. The news cycle is
a little bit slower, So this is the thing that
gripped the nation this week. You know, whether it was
the Titan submersible plosion a couple of years ago or

(14:02):
last summer. I believe it was also in July, the
Luigi Mangioni and the CEO shooter. And there's also for
a while now there's been this sentiment that's anti CEO,
so a lot of people are happy to see this rich,
powerful person be taken down a notch.

Speaker 2 (14:22):
Yeah. I think there's some of that, but I still
think the bigger thing at play here is the cheating.

Speaker 1 (14:28):
Yeah. No, yeah, obviously, and everybody can relate to that.

Speaker 2 (14:31):
And everyone could write, everyone can relate to it, and
it's universal to me. This is the Tristan Thompson whatever, Kardashian.

Speaker 1 (14:39):
That was Chloe Fine, it's that.

Speaker 2 (14:42):
Story, you know what I mean, because it's so freaking
relatable where it's happened to you and no one's cared,
and you know, maybe your circle knew about it, and
it's traumatic. It's like we said, it's relatable. A lot
of people have been there, a lot of people have
been those two people, you know what I mean. So
it's a lot of people casting judgment when they've done

(15:03):
it before. But it's just weird to see someone older
in their life behaving that way and people that have so.

Speaker 1 (15:10):
Much Andy Byron and the woman was one of his
subordinates and employee. That's there's actually that's what I was
gonna say. No, no, it's not like it was his
sacritic No, no, no, that's what I was going to say.
There's so many layers to this, That's why it's so compelling.
It's like, not only was it his subordinate, it's somebody

(15:31):
who should have known better. The hr person, Yeah, she
should have known better. She's the head of HR, and
I think also just being cheated on, just being a
cheater is terrible in it of itself. Then there's the
embarrassment and the extra layer of terrible and humiliation that

(15:52):
this was so public for the wife and the husband
of the.

Speaker 2 (15:56):
People, all of their families and everybody that they know,
for the business, for everything.

Speaker 1 (16:00):
Because also it's like one thing to have, like your horning,
your dumb or whatever, and you're having a sexual affair.
I agree, But clearly they were canoodling at a fucking
Coldplay concert.

Speaker 2 (16:11):
In public around other people, you know, in a luxury
box where people can see you. It's wild. You know,
if they did nothing, if the camera was on them
and they stood still like deer, it wouldn't be a story.
No one would have known, No one would have even
went to find out who they were. Because every major
sporting attraction event concert. There were probably seventy five kiss

(16:33):
cams this weekend across the country.

Speaker 1 (16:35):
And most of them, most of them were making fun
of this clap.

Speaker 2 (16:39):
Oh my god, the Phillies was the best. It was savage,
really great.

Speaker 1 (16:43):
I saw that one with the with the mascot.

Speaker 2 (16:45):
And with the fanatic.

Speaker 1 (16:46):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (16:47):
My buddy's the promotion director for the Phillies. I reached
out to him. I was like, well done.

Speaker 1 (16:51):
But the thing is, you know the way that they responded, well, actually,
let's pause before I even say that. Every single person
commenting on that, we're all just speculating that they were
each still with their husband and wife. It's possible that
they both might have been broken up, but that's most
likely not true.

Speaker 2 (17:10):
Yeah, I don't think so. I think she's married to
some guy that owns a rum company or something like.
She married into money.

Speaker 1 (17:16):
Yeah, yeah, it's not a ton of it. But what
I'm getting at is, you know, it's still an assumption
that we're all making, but an educated guess, you know,
because of how they responded. If they had nothing to hide,
if they were both broken up with their husband and wife,
they would have just not crouched down and hit and
turned their back to the camera and all of that.

Speaker 2 (17:35):
You know.

Speaker 1 (17:35):
Yeah, but they're like, oops, we got caught. It's just crazy,
and you know, everybody's jumping in on it. There was
even this girl pretending to be the CEO's daughter. You
might have seen that on TikTok. That's not his daughter.
On TikTok. It's somebody who's marketing some company. Nice, but
I don't know if that's legal or not.

Speaker 2 (17:55):
I think I saw that too, and my first thought was,
this isn't the I mean, I really think yeah, yeah,
I kind of felt that that was bullshit right when
I saw it.

Speaker 1 (18:05):
Yeah. So the very latest is that that woman, the
hr hancho, has been put on leave and the CEO
has resigned.

Speaker 2 (18:14):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (18:14):
I don't know how much he was making, but easily
a lot of money. Yeah, sure, And now they're looking
for a new CEO. And you know, if you're gonna cheat,
don't And if you are gonna cheat, be smarter, don't
be fucking stupid.

Speaker 2 (18:28):
Jesus when you take the chance to embarrass everybody else
in your life. I think that's what everyone's so appalled by.
Like you said, if they were just humping in the
office and nobody knew about it, big fucking Dale. It
happens every goddamn day at every office, probably, but just
the public way that this happened, and just being so

(18:49):
innocent how it was caught. I think it's just anybody
that's ever been cheated on, just really, I don't know,
it strikes the chord, and I think that's all this
was and is.

Speaker 1 (18:58):
Yeah, yeah. Cold Play had their first concert since the
kiss cam situation over the weekend and they made light
of it without directly addressing it. He just warned the
audience beforehand that that moment was happening, so they were
all put on notice. So if you are there with somebody,

(19:19):
it is kind of nice, like, oh, this moment we're
gonna put on camera is about to happen. So without
saying it, if you're here cheating on anybody, now's the
time to go to the bathroom. But actually, that could
happen at any time during any concert. It could all
right in other crazy and I would say ground shifting news.

(19:40):
CBS has canceled The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, not immediately.
He's gonna have a swan song a final season. The
last episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert will
air in May. He began hosting the show after replacing
David Letterman in twenty five fifteen. And what the craziest

(20:03):
thing is, I still don't understand it. And I'm not
a conspiracy theorist, but I'm inclined to believe the people
that are upset about this, thinking that it might have
been because of political reasons. Yeah, because CBS is owned
by Paramount, and Paramount is in the process of merging

(20:23):
with another company called sky Dance in a deal worth
a lot of money billions, Yeah, a lot of money.
But it needs to be approved by the.

Speaker 2 (20:33):
Trump administration, by the FCC. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (20:35):
Yeah, the FCC needs to sign off on this, and
they haven't yet. And Stephen Colbert has been a very
loud critic of Donald Trump and even a critic of
his own network, which, on one hand, criticizing your boss
is a dumb move, I think, but late night hosts
have done that historically.

Speaker 2 (20:56):
Sure, it's supposed to be a place for the truth
and for the freedom of expression. That's something that Johnny
set up a long time ago, and Dave kept that alive.
And look, I think two things can be true at
the same time. The fact that yes, they do need
them to the Trump administration, they do need them to

(21:18):
sign off, and that being part of the reason it
was killed. I do believe, yes, there is a part
of that that's probably true. I also believe that I'm
almost positive I've said it on the show before, but
I know I've said it elsewhere where. The people that
are left watching broadcast TV, that still have a cable box,

(21:39):
that haven't cut the cord are the people in the middle.
And none of these shows, not Kimmel, not Colbert, not
Seth Myers. Fallon's fine because he stays out of that pray.
It's not his gear, it's it's not what he does.
But these shows, they're not talking to the people anymore
with the broadcast signal. Those are people in the middle

(21:59):
with the and they're not representative of this divided country
at the moment. It is clearly very logical left wing.
There's a bias to it, and it is what it is.
I think the two things can be true at the
same time. And also the third thing, in this day
and age, paying someone sixteen million dollars a year to

(22:22):
have a show that's on at eleven thirty five, I
can't remember the last time I was up past ten
o'clock eleven thirty five and turned on broadcast television. It's outdated.
Joe Rogan podcasts. I bet this podcast at times has
bigger audiences, you know. It's just it's just an outdated
thing where we've got to move on. Like Seth Meyers
is next. Oh yeah, twelve thirty to one thirty. I mean,

(22:44):
come on with the political I just the day has
passed and that's all it is.

Speaker 1 (22:49):
You know, I wouldn't be surprised if there's going to
be a lot of changes in Late Night as a
result of this. But before we move on, there's a
couple of really important things to note. One, see recently
kissed the ring. Donald Trump had sued them.

Speaker 2 (23:05):
Yeah, it was a frivolous lawsuit. Yeah, and they would
have won. They would have absolutely won. But back to
your original point, billions with the b yeps, how much
this merger is and cutting a show or taking a
twenty million dollars hit or sixteen million dollars whatever the
fucking hit was.

Speaker 1 (23:21):
Yep, is nothing. Yep.

Speaker 2 (23:22):
It's literally it's moving one pile of paper into another
pile of paper. It just is nothing for them to do.
And that's why they did it. You know, they bent
the knee. That's what everyone's doing now.

Speaker 1 (23:33):
Yep, yep. But here's what's especially frustrating with regards to
the Late Show and Colbert, of all late night television,
his was the highest rated. Yeah, so you know, the
official reason was financial decision, but not because of performance.
But if you're the highest rated show, then it just

(23:53):
means you're mismanaging. It means you're not doing your job
as the business effectively. And instead of firing him and
laying off all the workers, why not trying to make
changes to make it more cost effective. Okay, do we
really need a staff of two hundred Maybe we can
do this with a staff of one hundred instead.

Speaker 2 (24:13):
Do we really need to pay someone sixteen million dollars
a year for this at eleven thirty five when no
one's fucking watching. No, it's you sit down and you
say this needs to be cut in a third, not
even more than a half. We'll give you a third
of what's left. Yeah, I gotta be honest with you.
It's still plenty. Yeah, there's too many people at the
top making way too much money. The economics have changed,

(24:34):
the advertising dollar has changed, the amount of live eyeballs
has changed. It's a moving target. I don't know. I
get the uproar because, like I said, both things can
be true at the same time, and I firmly believe
both things are true in this case. And when you
say he's number one he's number one of what's left
of the audience. Letterman used to pull millions a night.

(24:56):
Now the number is like a you know, one hundred thousand, Like,
give me a break.

Speaker 1 (25:00):
I do believe that these shows are an important part
of society and then they're needed. Yeah, and not even
just for digesting what's going on culturally, but even just
for show business in Hollywood and like promoting shit. If
I was NBC, even though Colbert had bigger ratings, I

(25:21):
think Fallon still speaks to the masses and his show
is Actually I enjoy Fallon better. I enjoy the tonight's
show better. I think they should move his show from
eleven thirty five to ten PM, and it would probably
increase ratings by a lot.

Speaker 2 (25:36):
You know. It's kind of what they try to do
with Leno at the last minute with the ten show
and putting him on before Conan and splitting up that time.
It's something they should investigate because the whole eleven thirty
five after the local news thing is so antiquated, Like
no one's watching local news anymore either. Guys like, you're right,
and if it does still make some money, then move

(25:57):
it down and move the deck chairs around. And have
some content that's, like you said, compelling and needed. But
I think they still need to balance the scales of
who's still watching. And I keep going back to it's
the middle, it's the Red States. They're not represented those people.
They don't find this humorous. It's one way and one take.

Speaker 1 (26:17):
That's why I said Fallin, because I do think his
show appeals to everyone.

Speaker 2 (26:21):
Right, he's both Yeah, he doesn't play that political Yeah,
he doesn't.

Speaker 1 (26:25):
And it's smart because I actually really enjoy his show
because instead of doing long monologue, he does lots of
bits and segments, and he has great producers who are
very creative, and it's.

Speaker 2 (26:35):
The point of I mean, we've learned that lesson on
even this show to an extent, there are people that
want to get away from that chatter every day, and
you just don't want to hear it anymore because in
the case of this administration, it's the most divisive time
in my lifetime, maybe in this country's history, what's happening

(26:56):
right now, and I think people want to get away
from it. So Fallin is nice distraction, and we like
to be a nice distraction. However, when the politics is
the news, you kind of have to do the fucking news,
and that's the line you have to walk.

Speaker 1 (27:09):
Yeah, well there might be more a future unemployed late
night talk show hosts, especially if Donald Trump has a
say in anything. You know, he's coming after Kimmel as well.
And he even doesn't like Fallin. You know, he wrote
this whole stupid bullshit. I forget what he said about Fallon,
but you know, it's all good. They're all very wealthy people.

Speaker 2 (27:29):
It's all ridiculous him talking about wasn't the idea to
have less government. But now he's budding in like, oh,
the Indians need to go back to being the Indians
and the Redskins. They got to go back to being
the Redskins or I'm going to block their stadium deal.
And I know all of this is just a smoke screen.
So everyone could stop talking about the Epstein because he's
screwed in that case. He's doing anything in his power

(27:51):
to get people to talk about something else. That's what's
happening right now. But I thought we were for like,
let business be business, not like telling businesses what they
should call each other. What is this fucking Germany? Was
this Russia? You know, we're losing our democracy by the day.
It's disheartening. It's very disheartening.

Speaker 1 (28:08):
I agree, all right. In other news, speaking of talk
show hosts, Ellen DeGeneres gave him You interview where she
confirmed the reason that she moved to the UK is
because Donald Trump got elected. And how lucky is she
that she's a rich person because the UK accepted her
and welcomed her. You know, if a rich person from

(28:30):
the UK wanted to move here, how the hell was
she able to do that?

Speaker 2 (28:33):
Even though, like, I don't think she's as household namey
there as she is here, you know what I mean,
Like American talk show hosts put it this way, I
can't name one British talk show host. I've seen the
one show where the guy's up there and there's like
three people on the couch. I have no idea what
that guy's name is, but I assume they have other shows.
I've never heard of any of them, so I think
it's a little bit of that she's not a big

(28:56):
household name there.

Speaker 1 (28:57):
Well, she's happy and congrats to her, all right. And
other news, Oh my goodness, you know, it's so funny.
I specifically mentioned this when we talked about Katie Perry's tour,
and I defended it because I watched, you know, a
live stream, and I watched so much of it, and
people were criticizing her show. I said, you know, she
put on a big show, and there's so many moments

(29:20):
where she's in the air with props and this and that.
I said that on the podcast. Well, she had a
really scary malfunction at one of her recent shows, her Butterfly,
that she literally gets on and hovers over the crowd.

Speaker 2 (29:35):
I don't know what it looked like. One of the
like there's four things that hold it. One of the
things unlatched somehow.

Speaker 1 (29:41):
I don't know if that's what happened, or if it
just deprogrammed.

Speaker 2 (29:45):
Right, something just didn't work. Yes, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (29:47):
Yeah, but scary moment. Oh my goodness. There is also
Jennifer Love Hewitt and Sarah Michelle Geller are beefing. Oh
my god, it's like the nineties all over again. In
a new interview, she says that it's all good on
her part. You know that they just haven't spoken in
thirty years. Okay, she's not exactly denying that there's any beef. Also,

(30:13):
they were both at the premiere of the movie recently
and did not take any pictures together. Sarah Michelle says,
for everyone asking, I never got to see Jennifer Love Hewitt,
who is fantastic in the movie. I was inside with
my kids when the big red carpet, when the big
carpet happened, and unfortunately JLH didn't come to the after party.
If you've ever been to one of these, it's crazy.

(30:35):
I sadly didn't get picks with most of the cast,
but that doesn't change how amazing I think they all are. Unfortunately,
some things happen only in real life and not online.
And then in an interview, she said, I haven't seen
Sarah literally, we've not talked since I saw her at
eighteen years old when the first movie came out. That's

(30:56):
why it's so funny to me. People were like, say
something back, and I'm like, what am I going to say?
I've not seen her. On my side, we're good. I
have no idea where this is coming from. I don't know.
That's bullshit. Yeah, clearly there's some drama.

Speaker 2 (31:11):
I don't know. I mean, I just think it's this
thing where they pit women against other women. They did
it years ago for whatever reason it stayed alive. She's like,
I don't even have anything to feed this with. I
don't know what the genesis is.

Speaker 1 (31:23):
Then if that were true, they're aware of it.

Speaker 2 (31:26):
But what are they supposed to do, Like, so what
if it keeps their name alive online? So what? It's
not really hurting them because it's not true.

Speaker 1 (31:32):
They could have coordinated to have a moment together on
the red carpet. They could have done.

Speaker 2 (31:39):
That, I guess, But that just seems like a lot
for nothing.

Speaker 1 (31:43):
What do you mean a lot? It's so fucking easy, because.

Speaker 2 (31:44):
I mean, you could keep this alive because nothing's hurting anybody.
As my point, she's not hurt. It doesn't seem like
the other girls heard about it, So it's like whatever.

Speaker 1 (31:52):
In other news, Tommy Lee confirms that he and his wife,
Brittany Furlon are back together after all the drama with
the two of them, and she was allegedly cheating on
him or emotionally cheating on him with a guy who
was pretending to be a rock star that turned out
to be a fake, a catfish situation, and despite all

(32:15):
of that, he took her back. Also, we talked briefly
about Gwyneth Paltrow recently another little tidbit, whomever got I
fucking should hit up whomever's releasing this Gwyneth Paltrow memoir
because they've done a really good job of seating it
and planting stories across the media. I saw one story
over the weekend about Gwyneth Paltrow and Ben Affleck. We

(32:39):
talked about Gwyneth Paltrow and Madonna on Thursday. This one
is about Gwyneth and Ben and apparently Ben Affleck liked
tea bagging her.

Speaker 2 (32:49):
Yeah, I'm like, is.

Speaker 1 (32:51):
This like for this for what? What is this serious?

Speaker 2 (32:56):
The hilarious?

Speaker 1 (32:58):
I just found that funny on so many levels, but
also like, is this what's straight people consider to be
like kink? Is tea bagging considered wild? That's so tame
for gay people.

Speaker 2 (33:09):
Maybe back in the day, you know, when they're young people.
But look, I've never tea bagged addy one in my life.
You haven't, Oh, definitely not?

Speaker 1 (33:17):
Why not?

Speaker 2 (33:18):
It seems disgusting?

Speaker 1 (33:20):
No, I'm to it all. Although I've also not had
sex in over a decade now, so that was just
so funny. Also, speaking of Ben Affleck, his ex wife
Jennifer Lopez says that she is done with marriage. Good,
You've already done it four times. There's no need. Also,
this is I'm just stealing. This is a good topic,

(33:40):
and we should invite our listeners to chime in. Call
Us eight hundred seventy one eighty five. I saw Kelly
Rippa on a podcast recently, and there was a clip
that I saw where the specific question or topic was
about sex and how her husband and they have clearly

(34:02):
a very fruitful sex life and a wonderful marriage of decades.
Mark Consuelo's prefers and likes to have sex in the morning,
and she does not. She prefers to have sex in
the evening. And I'm shocked that this is not like
a topic that's talked about more often. But like I'm

(34:22):
also and I'm also shocked, like I prefer the evening
as well. I'm totally team Kelly. Yeah, like ew, it's
kind of like gross in the morning.

Speaker 2 (34:30):
Yeah, with that, like you know, brushing your teeth and everything. Yeah,
I agree, I'm more of a nighttime action kind of person.
But to each his own, you know, I mean, you
get that morning would maybe you want to do something.

Speaker 1 (34:40):
I know, but everything too, it's like some gay guys.
You know, there's a lot of kinks around there. Some
gay guys are into that. Or like natural like musk,
like natural odors or smells. Yeah, yeah, I like smelling clean.
I like you to smell clean too, Like I like sweat,
like let's work and sweat. But then I also don't

(35:01):
want you to like smell rancid.

Speaker 2 (35:03):
You know, that's the whole thing about tea baggett. You
know where my balls have been and what they're adjacent to.
On top of it, unless a pressure washer just hit
me thirty seconds prior to the action, I would worry
about it. I'd be like, oh god, that area down
there can't be just no, just no, it's not appealing
to me.

Speaker 1 (35:21):
Oh my goodness. Well, speaking of couples, Jerry O'Connell and
Rebecca Romayne reveal that they too, you know, have been
married for decades and they have separate bank accounts, and
I think that's smart. You know, they also have a
joint bank account for their shared expenses and their kids,
and that they you know, obviously each contribute to that,
and that sometimes like when one of them is working

(35:43):
and the other one isn't the one that's working will
contribute more to it. But I think that's good because then, like,
you know, if I want to spend money to buy
myself a new car or whatever the fuck I want
to buy, Like, if I've got money in my account,
I can buy myself a fucking new car, right, I
mean obviously like super rich famous people, or maybe not
even super rich, but well off rich. Okay, yeah, I

(36:06):
would say they're rich, but maybe not super rich, so
they're not the norm. Also speaking of couple's, congratulations to
Kate Bosworth and Justin Long. They just welcomed their first
child together. Mazzl Also congratulations to Charlie XCX and George
Daniel of the nineteen seventy five. They just said I

(36:30):
do and got married over the weekend in London, and
your friend Mattie Healy, his bandmate, was not there.

Speaker 2 (36:39):
Yeah, it's kind of shocking. That must have just been
a decision on their own to do. Because Georgie and
Mattie are two peas in a pod, Both of those guys,
I would say that's the engine of the nineteen seventy five.
Like every decisions between the two of them, it looked
like they went to the justice of the.

Speaker 1 (36:53):
Peace or they went to the courthouse.

Speaker 2 (36:55):
Yes, yeah, so that you know, that's that just says
I'm gonna We're gonna do this on our own.

Speaker 1 (36:58):
That's all all right. Also, speaking of weddings, according to
a new report, Selena Gomez's wedding is happening soon, Oh
my god, in September. Very exciting. They began planning everything.
It's going to be in the Santa Barbara area in Montecito.
It'll be a two day event, unclear if it'll be

(37:20):
during the weekend. And also she just celebrated her birthday
at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel and Taylor Swift was there.
We got a new photo us Swifties always love when
we get new pictures of Taylor and Taylor and Selena together.
Speaking of pop stars, Ariana Grande is continuing down her
acting path that we mentioned recently. She's going to be

(37:42):
in that next Meet the Parents, Meet the Fokkers movie.
She also is going to be starring with Josh Gad
in a film directed by John chu her director in Wicked,
based on the Doctor Seus's classic Oh the Places You'll
Go with a Rich So, so it's going to be
a musical, very briefly. Two last things. Joe Esterhaus I

(38:06):
think I pronounced that the right name. He's a very old,
very well known screenwriter from back in the day. He
wrote Basic Instinct. Oh and they just paid him millions
of dollars to write a reboot. So another Basic Instinct
movies in the works, and they're not closing the door
to possibly having Sharon Stone return. I would love that.

Speaker 2 (38:29):
Sharon's awesome.

Speaker 1 (38:30):
Yeah, she is awesome. Fucking love her all right. And finally,
Happy birthday to Wendy Williams sixty one years old. It's
still sad that she's so young and having to deal
with so much, from her health issues to this guardianship.
Hopefully she has a happier sixty one than sixty. All right,
let's take some calls.

Speaker 3 (38:48):
Hi, this is Jillian from New York. I wanted to
comment on the Nicki Minaj Sizza beef and it's just
so silly because Nicki Minaj is so old. She reminds
me of a zilli of banks trying to talk shit
so that she can become relevant again. She doesn't realize

(39:10):
that most of the people these days were like ten
years old when she was hot in twenty ten. It's
funny because I think she has bigger things to worry about,
like herpedo husband. Anyway, love you guys. Bye.

Speaker 1 (39:26):
I don't know Nicki Minaj has had hits recently.

Speaker 2 (39:29):
Yeah. The point is she's yesterday's news, that's all, and
Siss is today's news.

Speaker 1 (39:34):
She had a top ten hit in twenty twenty two.
It's not that long ago, that super Freaky Girl.

Speaker 2 (39:40):
Yeah, I don't know that song.

Speaker 1 (39:41):
It was another one of those. It was like the
Anaconda song. It's heavily sampled.

Speaker 2 (39:44):
It sounds awful. Yeah, all right, let's take another one.

Speaker 3 (39:47):
Hi, this is Hannah. Take your own subscriber from Denver.
You actually agree with.

Speaker 1 (39:52):
Booker ninety percent of the time that I had to
pest pause and.

Speaker 3 (39:56):
Just say, Booker, you are out of.

Speaker 1 (39:59):
Your damn life if you think that Jack quit.

Speaker 3 (40:02):
He did not quit. He was fired. Allegedly he was
so awful this season. In the last episode.

Speaker 1 (40:11):
He said he wouldn't give Brittney fifty percent of their.

Speaker 3 (40:15):
Son's medical bill. Are you fucking kidding me?

Speaker 1 (40:18):
He was absolutely fired.

Speaker 3 (40:21):
Watch his episode of Watch That Happened for listen.

Speaker 2 (40:23):
Let me just say I don't watch that show, Okay,
I have no idea what's happening where they are in
their life, if they're together, not together. All I know
is they have a kid. And I saw him giving
some statement into a camera about his sobriety and I
thought it was genuine, or he's on the right path.
Is the guy still a blockhead? Probably? Blockheads are typically

(40:46):
blockheads their whole fucking life. I've called him a meathead
since day. What was he fired? I have no idea.
I don't watch, I'm not invested. I was just happy
to hear some positive things come from his own mouth
that just seemed positive. And that's all that I'm saying.
I'm not debating whether he was fired or not. If
he was great, if he wasn't great, I have no idea.

(41:06):
So there's my two cents on Jack's whatever the fuck
his name is?

Speaker 1 (41:10):
Jack Taylor? Well, sure I heard a follow up. I
didn't even care them. I don't even care that much
about him, like Bredon mentioned this, But the follow up
that I've heard is he was fired.

Speaker 2 (41:21):
Okay, I'm shocking they keep putting that guy on shows,
But you know, he must be good TV. Somebody must
like the drama, is all I can think.

Speaker 1 (41:27):
Of all right, all right, well, thank you all, and
hopefully we can see some new friendly names and folks
over on our Patreon, patreon dot com slash Perez Hilton
hope to see some of you there. Our show comes
out Thursday

Speaker 2 (41:41):
All right, guys, take it easy, have a good one.
