Speaker 1 (00:00):
Real Housewives, a Beverly Hill star and daughter to singer
John Mellencamp, Teddy Mellencamp actually said the tumors in her
brain and lungs have significantly shrunk after immunotherapy treatment. So
if you missed it, the reality star was diagnosed with
cancer in February, which started in her brain before spreading
to her lungs and reach stage four. Teddy gave an
update saying, honestly, the crying is already done, but I
(00:21):
just finished with all my scans and my tumors have
significantly shrunk, which doctors believe means this is all going
to work out and then I will be back to
myself feeling good. She continued, I have two more sessions
of that immuno therapy and then hopefully I am done
and will be cancer free. And this comes after she
was planning, you know, her funeral with her dad and
getting her kids ready, So this is amazing news. The
(00:43):
forty three year old mama said doctors have given her
or had given her fifty to fifty odds to survive,
but yesterday said that she was choosing to be optimistic
and you know, just be happy about these encouraging results.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
So that's amazing. And you guys, it's the end.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Of an era because Billy McFarlane is giving up the
iconic Fire Festival brand, announcing that he's decided to sell
amid all these issues.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
For Billy, yeah, I think it's a right move. Easy.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
You might want to distance yourself from this and get
you a job over at Target or something like, let's
just let's not do this anymore.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
Right, And he had to release a whole statement yesterday
saying the last two years he's been committed to making
things right from the og, which I don't really feel
like is true. But he made sure to point out
that Fire Festival has dominated headlines for years, yes for
bad reasons, grabbing the attention of news agencies, documentaries, and
many fans around the globe. And he says the event
needs a more experienced team to throw it. I can't
(01:40):
believe it's taken us, not jail time to realize this,
but after jail trying to throw the second one, by
the way, Fire two point zero has had a string
of issues, including controversy over whether the local government in
Mexico was aware that the festival was going to take
place there, or if they were going to allow it.
If you go to the website, there's literally like an
auction tab. So if you want to buy some of
(02:02):
Fire Festival, what.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
Is the value?
Speaker 3 (02:04):
Well, I think, I mean there is name recognition. It's
not good anymore. It probably ever was, but I think
without I think the smart move might have been the
second round totally screwed him. But I think he could
have probably gotten out of jail and sold the IP
to somebody and they could have done some kind of
(02:24):
ironic spin correct, like a reputable promotion company probably could
have used the name and done something ironic with it
and like funny, not funny, but like legit but not
you know what I mean. They could have done something
with it and spun it in a way because everybody
knows what fire Festival is. But now we know that
it's twice failed and twice a scam, so now it's
worth nothing.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
Right, so this is still a scam.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Like if you go and bid on it or trying
to send your money to buy it, I feel like
you're still going to.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
Get a scam.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
Yeah, you're so right, but if you're interested still, after all,
what we just talked about Trademark's intellectual property media reach
and more is what you will get.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Jason, I don't have a price for that, but that's
what you will get once she was thinking about it,
but he's just not sure. Yeah, I was able to
afford it with the change in my pocket of the
actual value here. They should probably pay you to take
the name off there. You would actually pull it off.
You you take it. I'm bringing Gyro back. We're going
to take over the beat.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
Honestly, like a few years ago, we could have bought
it right and the Fred Show could have done a
fire festival, you know, somewhere, and we could have gotten
the Eve young guy to come out, you know, wave
and whatever, and we could have gotten actual artists and
it made merch and stuff and it would have been
cheese sandwiches. But like made it cool, but like also
poked fun at it had some FEMA tents out there,
you know, some MRIs and then we could have just
(03:38):
made it like survival, but we're not. You know, we're
actually in the city, so we're not, you know, but
like it could have been cool, but no.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Not anymore.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Right, So Billy has done probably everything wrong. It seems
like every single thing has been wrong. By the way,
