Kalaugashak Media, Hello and welcome tocard Talk. Today's news on All the
Kardashians, All the Family, allin under ten minutes. In the late
nineteen eighties and early nineties, theKardashians and the Simpsons were very close,

(00:24):
raising their kids together, visiting eachother's homes and taking family vacations. However,
everything changed in nineteen ninety four whenoj Simpson was arrested for the murder
of his ex wife Nicole Brown Simpsonand her friend Ron Goldman. Kim Kardashian
said in a twenty twenty interview thatthe situation tore my family apart, with
her mom Chris Jenner, believing Simpsonwas guilty, while her late father,

(00:48):
Robert Kardashian, represented Simpson in thehigh profile trial. Although Simpson was found
not guilty, the Kardashians' lives wereforever altered. A former friend of the
family told US Weekly that Oja casta pall of fear and sadness over the
entire family, and that the threathe posed to the reality stars was something

(01:11):
that they dealt with daily until hisdeath on April tenth from prostate cancer at
age seventy six. The former friendrecalled an incident where Simpson called Kim from
prison after she agreed to speak abouther uncle oj to a media outlet.
Simpson left a simple but menacing voicemail, saying, Kim, it's uncle Oja.
Hope you're doing well. I'll callyou soon. The friend added that

(01:33):
even after Kim decided not to speakabout Simpson, many still considered Ojay a
definite, unpredictable threat to the safetyof them and their families. The Kardashians
also dealt with rumors that Simpson mighthave been Chloe Kardashian's biological father. The
family addressed the theories in a twentytwelve episode of their reality show, but
Simpson denied the rumors in a twentynineteen Father's Day video on Twitter. Robert

(01:57):
Kardashian initially believed in Simpson's innocence andasked his family to support his decision to
represent him. However, the formerfriend says Robert eventually felt betrayed and tricked
into defending OJ at the most publicizedtrial in history, and was disgusted by
the fact that oj could have murderedtwo people so brutally. Following the trial,

(02:19):
Simpson kept tabs on everyone involved andwould call them if they spoke to
the press. The former friend says, at this point, Oj was a
free man and everybody was deeply afraidof incurring his wrath. Now that Simpson
has passed away, the Kardashians canfeel some relief, but the uneasiness they
lived with for decades will never change. The former family friend says. The

(02:40):
loss of Nicole has never been faraway, and the family is still haunted
by the horrible end she had faced, but they're free from OJ's threats now.
Kylie Jenner's fifteen million dollar mega mansionin Hidden Hills is nearing completion,
as seen in recent aerial shots takenon Tuesday. The thirty thousand square foot

modern farmhouse, designed by top Canadianarchitect Richard Landry, sits on a four
acre lot, the largest in HiddenHills. The home, which will reportedly
have fifteen bedrooms and an underground bunker, has undergone significant progress in the three
years since construction began. Landscapers havetransformed the once barren lot by adding vibrant

green trees around the property, providingprivacy for Kylie. The new home is
located near the compounds of Kylie's motherChris Jenner and half sister Chloe Kardashian,
as well as the homes of herother half sisters, Kim and Courtney Kardashian.

(03:45):
and a large pool is being addedto the backyard. To enter the property,
Kylie will have to drive through atunnel that leads underneath the building.
Although the home is close to completion, there are still several steps that need
to be taken before Kylie can movein with her two children, Stormy and
Airy, whom she shares with exboyfriend Travis Scott. The outdoor space requires

(04:06):
more landscaping, and exposed wooden plankson the exterior need to be finished.
Construction trailers and portable toilets are stillvisible on the property, indicating that workers
are continuing to work on the massiveproject. Kanye West has reduced the asking
price for a gutted Malibu mansion he'sselling from fifty three million dollars to thirty

(04:29):
nine million dollars. The change inprice was reported by TMZ on Thursday,
less than four months after West initiallylisted the dilapidated property in the Luxe oceanfront
community. West brought in selling Sunsetrealtor Jason Oppenheim to help sell the home
late last year. Oppenheim told TMZthat he is optimistic about selling the distressed

(04:51):
property, describing it as basically ablank canvas for prospective buyers. The home,
which spans more than four thousand squarefeet, has four bedrooms and five
bathrooms with stunning views of the PacificOcean. However, it is missing windows,
walls, and a roof, anddoes not have electricity. West bought

(05:13):
the home for fifty seven million dollarsin late twenty twenty one, but was
unable to remodel it into a bombshelter after involving famed Japanese architect toadao Ando
in the remodeling process. The pricereduction is the latest in a series of
issues related to the home. Westis being sued by the former manager of
the remodel project, Tony Saxon,who claims he was fired after expressing concerns

(05:35):
about the extreme danger of the project. In September, sources told TMZ that
West wanted to remove the windows andelectricity from the home to turn it into
a bomb shelter. From the nineteentens. Saxon's lawsuit alleges that he was
hired for the project in September twentytwenty one and worked sixteen hour days on

(05:58):
the beach house, sleeping on thefloor while serving as project manager, caretaker,
and twenty four to seven security.Saxon claims that West only paid him
for one week of work and ignoredhis concerns until he was fired in November
twenty twenty one for refusing to removethe homes windows and electricity. West allegedly
threatened Saxon, saying he would beconsidered an enemy if he did not fulfill

(06:20):
West's vision more in a moment.Rob Kardashian, the most private among his
famous siblings, occasionally shares updates onhis life through his official Instagram account,

(06:41):
which fans believe is run by hismom, Chris Jenner's communication company. Recently,

birthday and received heartfelt tributes from hissiblings Kim and Chloe, as well as
his mom, Chris. Despite remainingoff social media himself, Chris shared a
collection of childhood photos, showcasing theirremarkable resemblance and Rob's effervescent personality as a
youth. Hulu's bet on the Kardashianfamily seems to be paying off, as

(07:47):
revealed during Disney's much anticipated earnings callon Wednesday, CEO Bob Eiger mentioned that
The Kardashians, the reality series aboutthe famous family, has become the most
viewed unscripted series ever on Hulu.This development is significant for several reasons,
particularly because Hulu is about to becomea fully Disney owned property more than a

(08:11):
decade after its launch, with backingfrom major TV networks. During the early
days of streaming, The Kardashians hasquickly become a signature series for Hulu,
despite the scandal plagued high drama Familybeing inconsistent with the squeaky clean, family
friendly formula found on Disney Plus.This dichotomy is interesting as Disney prepares to
launch a beta version of a combinedDisney Plus Hulu app in December. Eiger

(08:37):
stated that the beta launch will givefamilies time to set up parental controls on
the new app, restricting the contentyounger children can access. The official version
of the app is set to launchin the spring of twenty twenty four.
