That his whole and then you got to like slamming
the car door with j Lo or smoking outside just
so depressed his podcast. Yeah, his drug appeared side that
was Bill Simmons HBO TV show.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
I don't think there's an amount of sex with hot
starlets that can cure the demons that are still in
he's got to deal with and he's gotta be here
on Matt Damon all the times with like a real beating.
My Damon's like, hey, look, I'm gonna do my Jesse Plemmons.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
And he just stares.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Okay, so we're still in the end because okay, so
when uh Ben so Ben Affle, I get some point.
I guess maybe reached out to her and Tom was
like doing the ceed lamb at the draft, taking the
phone on life.
Speaker 3 (03:07):
I don't know if that's what's happening, but I just
loved it.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
In the article, it sounds like something that an old
Southern woman might say about like her son dating.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
I don't like that girl sniffing around, right.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
It does something Gator would say, Yeah, it absolutely does.
Giffing around the time. She called George Clooney an old
horny horn dog. He's an old horny horn dog. She's
not a big Clooney fan. What you know, where and
where does that come from? What did he do all
he is is a really good looking man. Was just
it was her own emotions that she was like thinking about.
(03:42):
I think probably the thing. Remember at the time, he
was positioned as the guy that would never settle down
and just plows through everything until he met that Nobel
Prize winning lady. It's fine, they're bringing Baywatch back.
Speaker 1 (03:54):

Did what happened with the ben Affleck story? Is it over?
Speaker 1 (03:57):
Yeah? Tom didn't like him sniffing around. Tom's about to
maybe use some force to keep Athlet away. I f
like just wants to have that close friendship that he
has with zex'es, that he had that he has with
Jim Garner.
Speaker 4 (04:10):
No guy ever wants to be friends. And there's a
foot difference between him too, isn't there?
Speaker 1 (04:14):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (04:14):
I had a ten year age difference to six three
and five three. Yeah, but Cruise thinks he has leverage.

he was very upset that Jennifer Garner got married.
