Speaker 2 (00:14):
All right, So, Kristen Bell and Dak Shephard, are you
know a famous celebrity couple?
Speaker 1 (00:19):
A right?
Speaker 2 (00:19):
You know, so I'll know these people are. Kristin Bell
skipped her appearance on The Today Show yesterday. She's on
the promo tour for season two of Nobody Wants This, Yeah,
the show she's in with Adam Brody. Yes, yes, wife,
you watched that all in one night.
Speaker 3 (00:35):
I did the same thing.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
I loved that show. We didn't make it through episode one,
but you know, fire back up. You know we'll see
I doubt it. So here's there's a lot of questions
going on about why would she have skipped her promo
appearance on the Today Show. She did post something that
got a lot of heat on Instagram a couple of
(00:58):
days ago. It is a picture of her in the
arms of her loving husband, Dak Shepherd, and it says
happy twelfth wedding anniversary to the man who once said
to me, I would never kill you. A lot of
men have killed their wives at a certain point. Even
though I'm heavily incentivized to kill you, I never would,
(01:18):
all right, Peter Comedians. Here's one of the first comments
to just put first of all, dateline NBC goes screenshoted
that one. Okay, domestic violence is not a joke, you
know things like that. That's why I just would like
to take you guys back to twenty twelve. I want
to get this be very clear. I do not think
(01:39):
Kristen Bell and dak Shepherd should be canceled. I believe
they should still be able to go work and make
money for their family. Okay, here he goes say twenty
twelve interview from a junket and the girl interviewing. We
were going to have a little more time on her
after this. I think you'll understand why, because she talks weird.
(02:00):
But here's this.
Speaker 4 (02:01):
When he got it back after two years of souping
it up, he said, let's go to brunch. She was
so excited. We drove to brunch and the first thing
I said five minutes into the ride, I said, this
sounds like it's.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
Going to break.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
And I was very offended.
Speaker 4 (02:12):
And then I hit her several times and.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Then I got beat up, and I guess what, I
never opened my mouth again.
Speaker 4 (02:18):
My goodness, you guys have quite the interesting relationship. Oh no,
good all that's a good drop. Oh my god, you
have quite the interesting relationship. Who is that news reporter
is al at Owl?
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Remember person? We don't even know who it is, just
some local TV person, Janella Hamilton, that's.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
Hambleton.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
The thing I would say is, now you guys understand
the reason we're doing this. There's nothing to do with
Kristen Bell not showing up on the Today Show. Me
nor anyone listening to The Eagle gives a damn about that.
What you do care about is what was this interview
we're doing in twenty twelve? Listen to this follow up question. So,

that's what he's going for, you annoy you?
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Why was she quivering on you?
Speaker 4 (03:18):
You going to hit me too?
Speaker 2 (03:20):
So, Judge Kristin, have any obsessions that kind of annoy you?
Speaker 4 (03:24):

good answer. Isn't that crazy?
