Speaker 1 (00:00):
Jer and Amanda gem Nation Entertainment with m Gillespie and
the Charlie Sheen documentary has dropped.

Speaker 2 (00:08):
How do I present this with any class? I think
we're past that, Charlie, We're past that.

Speaker 3 (00:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
When you've got a lot of shame about a lot
of stuff, shame is suffocating. I lit the fuse, you know,
and my life turns into everything it's it wasn't supposed
to bear.

Speaker 1 (00:28):
Hello do you m Hello?

Speaker 3 (00:30):
Oh my goodness. Charlie Sheen has a new documentary series
on Netflix. It's a two parter about three hours in total,
and guys, I really didn't want to like it, but
I loved it. He is extremely likable in this series.
It's very, very brutally honest. It's not like you know
a lot of the celeb doccos we've got in the

(00:51):
last few years, and they're very manufactured. The celebrities themselves
ep them and they kind of curate a very specific story.
This is not one of those shows. We've got people
like Denise Richards, his ex wife on board, John Cryer,
his co star from Two and a half Men, Chuck Lurie,
the guy that made Two and a half Men, Sean Penn,
his childhood friend, even his brother Ramon Estevez, he's former

(01:14):
drug dealer, a guy called Marco who's along for the ride.
And all of these people are from all of his life,
you know, from childhood to today. They've been there for him,
they've been through it with him, or they've walked away
from him through all of his scandals, and they lay
it all out there. It's brutally honest, but I liked
it a lot. He's very likable. Unfortunately.

Speaker 2 (01:36):
Is this all about redemption for him?

Speaker 3 (01:38):
I think possibly yes. I think it's also about setting
the record straight. He twenty twenty was about the time
that he really went off the dep end. Remember he
was all over Twitter and YouTube with his like winning thing,
and he was doing a world tour speaking to her
basically trash talking everyone that's ever defended him or worked
with him. I think he wanted to set the record

(01:59):
straight for a lot of those people. Denise Richards comes
off as an absolute saint in this. Even though they
split a long time ago, she is still a big
part of his life. She's helped raise his twin sons
who he had with his third wife after they split,
and she was there during kind of on set two
and a half men. When he was spiraling and on

(02:21):
one hundred different drugs.

Speaker 1 (02:23):
She'd show up.

Speaker 3 (02:23):
She'd make him sandwiches, make sure he get fed. She'd
feed the sex workers who were in his caravan because
it was like, oh, well you're here, I'll feed you
guys too. She's also, yeah, really really interesting. He also
set the record straight on a couple of kind of
longer term rumors. There was that rumor that Corey Heim,
the late child actor called Feldman, had accused Charlie Sheen

(02:46):
of abusing him, assaulting him.

Speaker 1 (02:48):
He said he raped him.

Speaker 3 (02:49):
Yeah, he did say he raped him. But Charlie Sheen said,
it's absolute bull crap. There's no way it happened. It's impossible.
The kid's mum even came out and said it was impossible.
It couldn't have happened. So he tried to clear the air.
There he goes into his HIV diagnosis. He apparently had
this near death experience after decades and decades of drug abuse.
He was really really sick. They couldn't figure it out.

(03:10):
It was worse than withdrawal. And that's when Denise said
to him, have you been tested for HIV recently? And
that's what it was. He discusses that he's never transmitted
HIV to anyone. He said, it's just not true, but
that he's paid millions and millions of dollars in settlements
to people who have come forward saying that he did
give it to them. He said those payments range from

(03:32):
about half a mil to one and a half mill
when he was on to and alfter, just to shut
them up. Just yeah, basically, he said, just to make
them go away. And he said, I'm sure more people
will come out of the woodwork after this doco. And
you know, he kind of says, like, bring it on.

Speaker 1 (03:45):
I've said him recently in Bookie, which is a great
comedy series at the moment about an LA sports bookie
and Charlie Sheen plays himself in it, but it's written
by it's produced by Chuck Laurie. A massive falling out.

Speaker 3 (04:01):
They had a huge falling out because Charlie re signed
with two and a half men. He was getting two
million dollars us an episode. His co star John Cryer
was on a third of that. And then that's when
he really ramped up his drug abuse. He was taking
testosterone with everything else, which he said, is really went
his brain kind of went full scrambled. But Chuck Laurie,

(04:22):
who I don't know, the studio didn't seem to do
a lot in terms of duty of care. He was
clearly off the deep end for a long time, and
they still wanted to kind of get him on set
keep the show going. But then Charlie went nuclear and
he just, yeah, he trash talked Chuck Laurie. Chuck Laurie
walked away from it. But he is part of the
doco and everyone that is involved really paints a picture

(04:43):
of a very complicated but kind of deeply likable person.
He just has this charming impact on everyone. His dad,
Martin Sheen, and brother Emilio Estevez are not involved in
the doco, but they kind of have Charlie's blessing and
he's very very candid about his relationtionship with them. Martin
Sheen sounds like a really supportive father through all of this.

(05:06):
There is one of his brothers who speaks to the
family's stuff. I guess Ramon Estevez, and God Martin Sheen's
been through it with Charlie. The amount of times he
tried to get him into rehab, the amount of times
Charlie went to rehab and then left really really scary stuff.
It's a miracle that he is alive today, to tell
you the truth. But he's like seven or eight, is sober.

(05:27):
He looks amazing and celibate.

Speaker 2 (05:29):
Apparently apparently it's been celibate for It's probably for God.

Speaker 1 (05:36):
It's probably just dropped off.

Speaker 3 (05:37):
I can't afford the lawsuits.

Speaker 2 (05:40):
Thank you.

Speaker 3 (05:40):
It's on Netflix aka Charlie Sheen. I actually really recommend.

Speaker 1 (05:44):
Youie go check it out. Thank you. Check her out
