There are a lot of portions of my life that
are pretty solid. I have a good family, great friends,
and the one thing I don't have is a romantic partner.
And you know why not. I knew it was going
to be a great experience and knew it was going
to be a lot of fun, and figured, let's give
this thing a shot. And there are no rules. You
should be open to everything. That's a good attitude that there.
It is tough when you're trying to manage a career

(01:27):
and build David Rabbitts is with us talking Bachelorette. We're
gonna take quick breaks, some more music and I want

from the Bachelorette who got sent home on Monday. But

(01:49):

rocked the chicken suit. Where that idea come from? It
was just a play on words, you know, back cup
that car I heard you've done in depression impression. I
gotta be honest with you, though, I thought I thought
your chicken could have been a little stronger, But I
didn't know the genesis of it that you were trying

in the corner literally with my head in my hands.
What I said was, what about the astronauts that have
been to space and have taken pictures of the Earth
and it is indeed round? He didn't really have a
great answer for it. Do you flat earth theory people

(06:49):
Mario Lopez about to dig into the Hollywood buzz and
tell you why she is back in the news After
a few more songs, Joan Mario Cordey Lopez, the Duchess
of Sussex, Megan Marco in the headline. All right, so
let's talk Megan Markle. First. She made headlines because she
violated royal protocol and crossed her legs while sitting near

(07:10):
the Queen. My gosh, if she has a lifetime of
worrying about stuff like that, I don't understand why crossing
your legs would be a bad thing. I would imagine
that's a good thing. We tell little girls here, especially
if they're wearing skirts or dresses, to cross your legs right.
You don't want to leave them open. No, I think
they have to sit like they sitting there with the
like a weird way, with their legs together like the

(07:31):
very uncomfortable. And that's how like Queen sits. I think
they have to follow her lead or something. I think
that you're right. You have to do essentially everything the
queen does. I don't remember seeing too many little old
ladies cross their legs. Did they cross their legs? Is
an old lady thing? Anyway, That's not her biggest problem.
Her dad called out the queen. He told TMZ that
he finds it up setting that he hasn't met the
royal family yet, but the queen is set to meet

(07:52):
Trump soon. I don't know what that has to do
with anything, but I believe he got sick at the end, right,
that's why he wasn't able to go to the like
a heart attack wedding. Yeah, he's got health issues. And
the queen is just she's very busy. I mean, you
know she's busy. She's starting in that Netflix show, right.
Need more Hollywood buzz, Get up on with Mario dot
com for Mario's take on everything happening in Tinseltown, and

(08:14):
hang on the crazy discontinuous in Moments from the Geo
Studios or fifteen Minutes Could Save You or more on
car insurance on Mario Lopez. More Courtney is here with
me in Happy National Pineapple Day goes better with cottage
cheese than some good pineapple. And if you ever want
to just trip yourself out, if you happen to ever

(08:36):
be in Hawaii or any tropical islet and you have
a pineapple there, it's completely It's like another fruit, right,
You're shaking your head and it goes. It's delicious. I
had some when I was there last time. I was
gonna say do you like it on your pizza. I
do like it on my pizza. I know that's taboo
for people like but I like it on anything. I
like something. It's kind of like avocado. I like it
on everything. Once I start eating and I can't stop

(08:56):
to forget about it. It's almost like candy. It is frozen. Pineapple,
by the way, is amazing too. Yeah, nothing wrong with that,
all right. Mario Lopez playing more music now, and they're
gonna get Omar Epps in here. A new season a
shooter just kicked off, and we gotta get the scoop
on that and his new book that he wrote all
about fatherhood. So back with Omar Epps intech. It's up

(09:17):
here with Mario Lopez joining me down in the studio.
Actor Omar Epps, what's going on? Man? I was just
tripping out, how you look exactly the same since the
first time I've seen you, and I just keep all
his shape because it looks like Santa down here. Really,
are you having to paint a little little brush up here?
I'm not gonna lie. I'd be looking like Anderson Cooper seriously,
So I'm gonna try to keep that up as long

(09:38):
as I can. So congrats season three a shooter. I've
heard a lot of good things about the show. You've
got great people on the cast too, and great people
behind it. Where is everyone as we get back into it? Uh,
this season picks up. It's we pick right up from
the end of season two. So you know, the end
of season two, um Bobbly had just gotten kidnapped by
solids off and he's been shot at something like that.

(10:00):
So it picks right back up, got it? You know,
So we're just on on the mission and my character
last season he basically lost everything that he loved. So
this season he's just out for vengeance. And you also
got a new movie Traffic, A couple of girls I
really like Paula Patton and Rosalind Sanchez. And this is
this is more of a straight up thriller, right, yeah, yeah,

(10:20):
that was a straight up thriller that was kind of
based around true events and um I described it as
it's kind of like three movies in one. It starts
out as like this romance that turns into a intense
suspense thriller that then turns into a horror movie because
it's it's you know, the backdrop of the film is
human trafficking right which is a real deal. Happens right now. Well,
Omar Haines tags, We're gonna take a quick break, play

(10:42):
some more music, and I want to hear about this
book that you wrote more with Omar EV's coming up.
This is on with Mario Lope's Perfecto Studios. Fifteen minutes
could save more uncor Insurance dot Com. Mario Lopez got
Omar EV's in studio new book, From Fatherless to Fatherhood.
That's powerful title. What inspired you to write this? Yeah,

(11:02):
thank you brother. Um what inspired me was I had
a moment with my son a few years back that
caused me to reflect on my life and and I
saw it to question it had growing up fatherless somehow
crept into my fatherhood and so I just began this
exploration of self. Um that just came out in the
form of writing and and um, once I got like

(11:24):
towards the end, I realized, um man, this could possibly
be bigger than me. You know, this could possibly be
used as a tool for inspiration, uh, possibly even a
tool for guidance. So I'm really proud of it and
happy to get it out there to the people. Mar
Lo Pass chatting with Omar Apps about his new book,
From Fatherless to Fatherhood. So, how would you describe your

(11:45):
style of fatherhood? Oh? Man, my, you know, I think
of myself as a cool day like sometimes you know,
my kids are like that, and then other times they're
like dad, like yeah, you know, but we're pretty we
got a pretty creative household. But I will say this, like,
I'm very forthcoming with my kids, Like I'm not one
of those you know, I know it all and I

the time. I'm like, hey, you know, even with the
