Speaker 1 (00:00):
Let's get down to business. Robin Garrett have the suit
keeping all y'all naughty gossips. What Rob does cetus? Thank
you for listening each and every week for only two
weeks into the New Year's thank you, Thank you for
(00:22):
coming back. My name is Garrett, That right there, the
man who everyone wants a piece of in more ways
than one. Rob freaking shoot, I wish they wanted. Here's
here's the thing. This is where you find out who
your real friends are versus those fake friends. I have
some fake friends, have some real friends. Well, yeah, everybody
needs those fake friends to act like you know, hey,
(00:43):
I'm you know, I'm cool. But those real friends are
always there for you. Now. The fake friends only come
around when there is a big scandal happening, or there's
a big award show now here, now here, okay, good.
I love a good buncake, love a good bun cake
from time to time it's delicious or bum um. So
(01:06):
the other other friends, yes, come around, they want to
see you. Well they well, here's where we draw the
line between you and I. Today there's there's a huge
British scandal news in in the Kingdom, and the oscars
just got a big day. But what you're saying. What
you're saying is that you don't just want me on
(01:26):
days like today, on the boring slow weeks and your ugliest,
you still tolerate me. And I'm grateful for it. So
today's actually a day we got news. So today's the
big summit in Britain. The royals are all getting together.
Megan's not interestingly, it's the Queen, it's Prince Charles, it's William,
and it's Harry and they're all getting together to decide
the future of Megan and Harry within the family. As
(01:48):
as they're calling it Mexit maxit so play on the
word Brexits Brita's Britain left Europe and now Making and
Harry looked like they might be leaving the royal family.
So today is the big day. So you're re a
lot about this. There's a ton of stories upon true,
what's fake? What trouble? That you're happy? So I hear
that there's a mental health concerns too between Harry and Megan,
(02:12):
that this just has not been good for them. They
do not like it. My sources tell me too that
she's an l a girl as well, that it just
hasn't fit, Like when I moved to America, New York
was a good fit to me because it really feels
like London. It's rainy, it's hot in the summer. It's
like a big city. She's an l A girl and
she misses the beach and the tree, the palm trees
and the lifestyle. London's cold and gray, and she just
(02:34):
hasn't fitted in their family, her mom's in l A.
They want out, they want to add. This is the
big question, though, Who pays for this? That ultimately is
is the crux of this? Am I paying for No?
I don't think you're going to. But it's like if
you decided that you no longer liked your job here
at I Heart Radio with Rovis Duran, and instead of
talking to Elvis about what the new job would be,
(02:56):
you announced on a website what your new job was.
So without the boss, they announced you being the queen.
The queen they said, like, we don't really like our
role anymore, but we keep onting. We wanted to keep
getting the paycheck and we want to like have a
new job. So they announced this new job and the
Royals were taken a little back by it. They're like, oh,
we didn't really discuss the They want to be financially independent,
(03:19):
which is a good thing. However, when you make money,
you have to do something, and I'm not sure what
they do. And I mean that with respect. Everyone's friends
and so you know, they're not going to go and
be teachers or firemen, or they're not going to go
and work in a store. They're not going to come
and work for naughty gossips. So their job is being
the royal. I think you're missing out on that offered
(03:41):
her a job on the Real House Paves of l A.
I think this is beautiful marketing. We know that Megan
Marko and Prince Harry are never going to work for
you good sources, but you put the arfer out there,
you should put it. Should offer them, you know how
much you should. It's like twenty bucks here to host
(04:05):
the show, be a big head. So then we would
have to donate some money or an el to a thing.
They they've gotta find a way to bout money. And
well Harry is getting money from Trick from the at
the moment, he gets money for really from Prince Charles.
So Prince Charles pays for William Harry Cayton began. So
it costs him about from time in the army, and
it is, but it's it's it's not a lot of money.
Was in the army a very short period of time.
(04:26):
He makes money from Prince Charles. So Prince Charles has
what's called the duchy, which is really an estate. The
estate is so big it had I know, it's like,
but the estate is so big. They make money from
farming the estate, from from rent on the estate. You know,
it's like, so it's so big, that's houses on there.
He makes a ton of money. So each year Prince
Charles pays for Meghan and Harry. He was given the
(04:51):
estate by the queen. So what happened is many many
years ago, quick history lesson, many many years ago. The
king decided that he should have a way to make
sure his first child, who was going to be king
or queen one day, would have an income. So he
gave them the way way back to way much go
back hundred. So they gave them so that they created
(05:11):
the state to duchy, and this the state is given
to whoever is the firstborn. So Charles was the firstborn
and he inherited this from the queen. When Charles is king,
William will inherit the estate. So it's always a way
to give the next king or queen Harry income. He
gets his expenses, pays, he leaves rent free. Her cloth
(05:34):
and alliance last year was half a million pounds. They're
not allowed to accept free clothes like celebrities, and so
it's tricky. So how do they make money? What the
royal sphere is that they will come to America and
she will sell Royal dog food. She she will sell
Royal Coca colak, TVC doing Genan Rivers, the diamond collection
(05:55):
from the palace. So they don't want her selling tiaras.
She could make a lot of money. So arra Ferguson
Sarah was cut off. So they cut Sarah off, but
she wasn't selling it as a title. It's really tricky.
What I'm told is they love Harry, so forget all
all the stuff you read, Forget the drama. I love
the drama, but forget it for a minute. They love him.
They want him to do fine. They have more money
(06:17):
than they will ever spend. My sources to telling me
they're going to be given a very generous offer, very
generous and they're going to be let go. They don't
have to be the royals anymore. They don't want them
on QVC, they don't want them here in America. So
they could a deal where they keep paying their expenses,
not the taxpayer, this will come from Charles and the Queen.
They will personally pay their security. Billy is a million
(06:39):
dollars a year. You know, these are some of the
most famous people in the world. If they got kidnapped,
it would be terrible. And so they're going to pay
their security. They'll pay their rent, they'll give them money,
they'll pay their clothing. They're gonna basically be paid a
lot of money to come to America and do what
they want. So um, the story of Megan Markel getting
Annie and thirty five dollar train true. But she's she's
(07:02):
royalty per se. She's with security. She's with security. It's
not like she just goes I'm leaving, not like the
Princess Diaries where she put on a mask, which is
really what gives her away. So when you're walking down
the street, if you see two really tall, handsome guys
in suits, big guys, look Dan and you'll see Ariana,
Grandy like, that's how I always find celebrities like Justin
(07:25):
Timberlight blends into New York pretty well, but he's always
walking around with a big security That's what gives them away.
So Megan went to Canada. This is a little tricky.
I don't think people dislike the fact they want to leave.
The process has not been as tidy as it could
have been. I think they should have all sat down
and decided what the future was going to be and
then announcing a group announcement with maybe even a photograph
(07:47):
of the whole family together. They didn't do that. So today,
deciding her job, her future, her money, Megan's calling in
from Canada, like she's on the conference course. Wouldn't you
be there for you if you were re negotiating your contract,
y heart? Would you call him? Would would you turn up?
I look at it as kind I would turn up,
But I also look at it as a para move,
you know what I mean? Like, but is it that
(08:08):
f you move? Which is game, especially when family are involved,
Like if anyone listening is in a family business, if
you had a bakery or family business, don't it's it's
more than just the job, it's your family turn up
about a briefcase girl. No. I like I like her,
and I like that she's strong. I like this very strong.
But the problem is she's taking on the Royal family.
(08:30):
She's doing things her way, which I think is a mistake,
which we all have that one friend that does. The
sister Betty's a nightmare. Sister Betty, Hello, you really trouble.
Sister Betty drives us crazy, do but we do love her.
I do give Harry credit because growing up the way
he did and seeing what what the press and everything
(08:52):
did to him and his brother and his mother. Ultimately
he does not want that to go down the same path.
He doesn't. But this is where the problem they have.
If he said to the public and the royals, Megan
and I are going to retreat from public life. We're
going to disappear. We're going to live a very private
life in a castle in Scotland, leave us alone, then
I think the public would be like, that makes sense.
(09:13):
They're not, but they want to come to America and
they want to become stars here, so they're not. They
don't have any intention of disappearing. But ultimately, I mean
the way that everything goes in the Royal line though
you got William Oh he's six and line he's never
gonna be king, but he's a global celebrity. But he
is a global celebrity. But I get it, don't you
(09:34):
want to do something on your own? But that's that's
a different argument from his mother was killed by the
paper arts, so you've got to decide when he's got
to decide what this argument is here? Is it that
you don't like the press and the media, And I
totally get that, and then you should you should retreat,
you can disappear, you don't ever have to work again.
So that's one argument, but that is not what they're
going to do. The other argument is what that he
(09:56):
wants to be his own man. I like the argument,
so get get what you want to do? What what what? What?
You can't work in a store? What do you want
to do? And he hasn't answered that question. What are
you going to do? He's thirty five years old, he
was in the army, he's always lived rent free, he
doesn't have much skill, work experience. I have a feeling
I know what's going What are you going to do?
(10:17):
I have a feeling they're hip hop? What are you
gonna do? They're going to start a podcast from the house.
Do you see what though they're now is that they
were going to become sort of like commentators or media personalities.
I like that. This is another problem though. The Royals
do not comment on politics, and Megan is famously anti
Donald Trump. There's reports today that they won't live in
(10:40):
l a until Trump is no longer president. The Royal
family do not like this. They don't comment on politics.
But they have sanctuary in Canada. That's why they It's
a common one, so they can live any but they
can live anywhere that they're not criminals there in a sanctuary.
They're not hiding from anybody. They can live anywhere in
the world. If you're really rich, you can buy a
house in Paris. If you're really rich, you can go
to New Zealand. So they've done a lot of murday.
(11:02):
So where do you want to live, Harry? This is
what the Queen's gonna say to that, What do you
want to live? How are you making a living? And
if like, knowing Harry's personality and just like to break
the ice, I would go Grandma. You gotta think he
calls him. I think they granny, Like there's no queen
that he says, Grandma call the queen because this is
very formal today, right, yes, very Downton Abbey at his
(11:29):
cannot wait to watch the re enactment on TV. What
do you think he'll say? Taco Bell is actually offering
their managers a hundred thousand dollars now a year to
work there. It's fun. What do you think he should do?
What's his role in life? What would he do? I
don't know what his role in life is, but I
(11:50):
know what he's trying to figure out now is the
best for his family. And he couldn't have done it.
I would have said nothing. I would have just done
my duties. I would have been very quiet about it
because they basically, if we're talking about a guy that
was naked and vagua no more than a few years
ago and talked about his mental health troubles, we know
he has has issues, demons he's dealing with. I wish
nothing but the best, I really do. But they've got
(12:12):
to think about this, and they can't want their cake
and eat it. If you want to be a royal
and you want that money and that prestige, there's certain
expectations of you. If you don't want that money, then
who's going to pay your rent? And this is what
the Palace is terrified about. If you cut somebody off
from your family, think about it. If you cut them off,
you push them into the arms into the circle of
(12:35):
really scary people. And so there's a very dodgy billionaires
out there. We know one Jeffrey Epstein, who his uncle
has been involved with Prince Andrew. Now do we want
to push Harry into the arms of dodgy people. The
house they're staying with in Canada is owned by a
billionaire who today, it's been reported, has some very dodgy connections.
(12:57):
So the poster reporting today allegedly the billionaire they're staying
within Canada has a few issues. So this is just
a couple of hours days in Where are they going
to end up? Who is to put them in the
basis is what they deal with every single day. We've
been dealing with it for I'm not my sister's couch,
broke dodgy sister Betty's couch because my mom won't at
me any money. I mean, you got a thing, everyone,
(13:21):
Granny the Queen. The Queen is like looking at at
at cathe Middleton now and going. You are a saint
in your family, do you have like so is this
who in your family would be most likely to be like,
I'm not speaking to you ever again, I I don't
want to talk to you but my sister Betty is
the one. Sister Betty would be like, I'm not talking
(13:43):
to anything. Yeah, maybe my my sister, you know, one
of my two sisters like, uh, I don't know. I
definitely aunt would be like I'm done with I'm done
with the family. Blah blah blah. And imagine if the
family was also the business, which is what the Royal
Side's not just leaving your family leaving your business. So
like it's it's it's also fraught. It will be, it
(14:03):
will be sorted out. But the good thing about this
is in his heart, Prince Charles, remember harr is his son.
He wants he wants at the end of the day,
and he's not spiteful like you know in some families
like my mom and dad can be a little spiteful
to sister Betty dead blood. If you want to leave
the family, then leave the family. We won't talk. Before
you know, no one's talking. Charles is in a hothead
he's calm down, and he wants to make sure that
(14:25):
the door is always open. So if Harry wants to
come back in the fold, he can, and I hope
he does well. I mean, there's also the other connection
of a child. He's going to see the baby again.
Like the Queen's she wants to see her grandkid. He
wants to see his. That's her great grandkids. Charles wants
to see his grandson. They don't want this to happen.
(14:46):
I do feel bad for William To, who loves Harry.
They love each other a moment I could I put
my arm around my brother in the entire time. He
can't do it anything. It's really hard, but I hate
seeing family drama like this. I'm a gossip columnist, love gossip,
but it is not fun. I took that comment that
William said um and made it like, hey, look listen,
(15:08):
I could help him, but he's old enough to make
his own decision. You have to let people fly. And
we've all had friends or family members that we've tried
to protect long. You're going to let them go. And
if Harry's decided to do this, I think it's a
terrible mistake. But he's decided. It's his decisions, being the
all things brit and all things the Queen and all
(15:28):
things royal. Looking into the future, starting from right now
as people are listening, and we know things are twirling
as we as we record this, what is in the
future for the entire family? The Queen and Charles are
going to come to an agreement with Harry where they
cover his expenses and Megan's Is it just three of
them sitting down today, the three Charles, the Queen Williams involves,
(15:49):
is the future King and Harry. So it's the four
of them, a few advisers, but it's really the four
of them. They're deciding and Megan's on the phone, which
I think is a bad decision, but that that that's
Kate's there. They're going to decide today financially, and I
think the family is going to be very generous and
they're not going to need to do commercials. However, Megan,
(16:10):
and I say this with respect, not as a dig.
She likes working, she likes being she wants to do
something some Megan is not going to disappear, I predict
will see less and less and less of Harry, more
and more and more of Megan and maybe even a
big sit down with an Oprah Winfrey. A moment of
Megan when she explains herself Harry down to Yeah, I
(16:31):
think Harry will be part of it, but she's running
the public face. She's more she likes the spotlight more
than Harry does. And that's not a dish. She's more
of a shop only than Harry is. Harry is quite shy, interesting.
But then I predicted five or six years they'll be
back in the family once the queen has with the
Queen passes, I think they'll you know, it's the I think.
(16:52):
I think you have to agree things will change in
the royal family get older and your kids. Plus though
if they do not mean updated things like and as you,
I don't like updating the system, and things had to
change and the taxpayer no longer was going to pay
for somebody their entire life just because they were born
to a queen. Why am I footing the bill? My
mom and dad is struggling in Britain, We're all struggling.
(17:14):
Why are we footing the bills? I don't know how
to get out of a group text with my family
right now, Like how do I leave it without I
don't know. I don't I don't know. I gotta helped me.
It's very complicated. I think it will all turn out okay, though.
I hope Matt, Megan and Harry find happiness all right.
The other big news to the Buck Shooter is all
over the place. Hollywood's biggest night, the Oscar nominations. Nominations
(17:37):
are here, big sort of big big takeaways. Jalo did
not get nominated, nor Beyonce. Something to Beyonce being nominated
for The Lion King was the best animated UH song nomination,
no nomination on that. I'm just saying the movie itself
against the Lion King. So she remade The Lion King
and she wrote the new song for it that was
(17:59):
eligible for nomination, did not get nominated. Taylor Swift died
for Cats that whole Cats were shut out completely and
the most nominations went to Joker. The movie Joker I
think got ten or eleven nominations. I think the best
movie is gonna be Once upon a Time in Hollywood.
Brad Pitt's going to win Best Supporting Actor. Joaquin Phoenix
is going to win Best Actor for Choker. Which here's
(18:19):
the one thing I didn't know in the best supporting
male role, Tom Hanks is up. He is, which means
I didn't see the movie A Beautiful Day in the
Name and you think you'd better lead actor, but he's not.
He's not the main character in a movie about Mr. Rogers.
And it's interesting, isn't it. I think for supporting actor
it's going to be definitely Brad Pitt. He doesn't have
an oscar. Hollywood loves him, and so it's gonna be Brad.
(18:41):
And I hear there's no host, but I hear Elton
John's going to open the show like Queen did last
year for Bohemia Lacksoday, so Elton's up for rocket Man
for the Best New Song, And I think Elton John's
gonna open the Oscars and everyone. I mean, it's the
Award show, you know how this is going to happen
on an award a show movie that is going to
win that no one except for like four people have
(19:02):
different this show there because Joker's big nineteen the war
movie that just was open this weekend forty million dollars.
That's big, um, So I think there are some bigger movies.
They even once upon a time in Hollywood Quentin Tarantino.
It's a little quirky, but a lot of people have
seen it. I think the fear was it was all
going to be streaming services and Netflix, and it wasn't
(19:23):
just the irishman. Yeah, I mean you got Brad Pitt
up against Albert Cino, Robert de Niro and someone else.
But all people we know, like Tom Hanks, like these
are big stars, Like there's been years at the Oscars.
I didn't even know the actors or the movies this show.
They're pretty pretty mainstream. All right. So normally before we
end this, robber because you gotta save your voice, you're
(19:44):
you're you're doing a lot of work today, a lot
of royal stuff. Um, all right, so I give you
a blind item. You ready for this? All right? I
have come across where an Oscar nomination Oscar nominated actor
has moved out of the big city and far far
(20:05):
away into Pennsylvania. I would guess I will tell you
once the mics go off, but I came across it
because there's been a lot of rumors in said town
where this person has moved to. And uh, I've noticed
on social media that hair stylist that cuts a lot
(20:27):
of famous people posting from a town that I'm very
familiar with. Uh at late at night, early morning over
the weekend, asked for a cut right away because you
never know if they might have gotten nominated on Monday morning.
And uh yeah, so they live out in the sticks,
but they probably still live here in the city as well.
(20:48):
Will we find out who knows? But I wanted to
give you that alright, So that is Rob Shooter. My
name is Garrett. A lot of royal talk, so hopefully
that that fills the need. I want to give a
shout out to someone too that asked please please please
cover all the royals, So that person, uh is Molly
carter Field. The carter Field Thank you for listening. As always,
(21:09):
we appreciate it, and thank you for listening to We'll
talk to you next week and look two in a row.
We're back at it. We're back rolling. Thank you for listening.
