  Speaker 1: Advice sugar.
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: Hell lo Lower Lowerllo, Welcome to the nord ve Nic Show.
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: I'm your host of Shooter, and it is Wednesday, which
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: means our dear friend Donnie Meecham is joining us. Hey, Donnie,
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: are you there?
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: Loi Low It is Wednesday, and so and so and
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: so Wednesday, Wednesday, Wednesday.
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: We had a really heavy show yesterday. It was all
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: Rob Ryer. Who's our lead story today? And then we're
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: going to move on to some other celebrity news too.
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: But this story, Donnie, just awful. Let's get to the news.
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: What time is it, my friends? It is tea time. Okay,
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: big story. At the top of the show, Rob Reiner
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: and his wife brutally murdered. It looks like it was
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: their son Nick that did this. All indications are pointing
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: to him, although we should be careful here. Anybody is
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: guilty until they've had a trial, so we're going to
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: try and keep an open mind. However, I'm told that
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: just two weeks ago the family had a meeting about
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: what to do with Nick. It was not a secret
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: in Hollywood that Nick was a troubled individual. In fact,
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: at the Conan O'Brien party the day before they were murdered.
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: I know somebody at that party, and when Rob and
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: his beautiful wife Michelle turned up with Nick, people rolled
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: their eyes. He's thirty two years old. It's not like
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: bringing your ten year old son to the party. He's
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: thirty two. He got invited to events because of his
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: mom and dad. People in Hollywood knew he was difficult,
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: he could be a bit of a bully, he could
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: have a huge ego. However, they were kind to him
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: because of who his daddy is. Was It feels weird
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: to say it was, but I think that's probably the
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: past tense. Now is probably the right tense. It's complicated
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: because you hear these stories about him having a chip
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: on his shoulder, that he could never really be as
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: successful as his dad, as his grandpa. But then, on
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: the other hand, was he lived in a twenty five
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: million dollar house. His mom and dad paid his rent
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: for him constantly when he was at his own apartment.
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: They paid for him to go in and out of
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: rehabbit here like fifteen or sixteen times. He never really
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: had a job. His daddy wanted to be a screenwriter,
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: so his dad let him write a screenplay and it
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: wasn't really that great. If it'd been, if he hadn't
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: been his son, Rob Ryder, wouldn't have produced or directed
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: that that film. Let's be clear about that. And so
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: I think my feelings, which at first were really stunned,
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: and now I think I'm really angry. It feels really
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: really like a spoilt brat, like a spoil bra He
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: had everything to live forward. Now, obviously we're a compassionate show.
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: We're kind here. I got to be compassionate to drug addiction.
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: It's a disease, it really is. It's not a choice.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: It is a disease. I believe that. So I'm trying
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: to be kind here, Donnie. But it's so complicated because
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: this kid had everything we did not, Donna, You and
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: me have had to rough it. We had tough childhoods.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: He did not. From the day he was born, people
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: band dad, he was invited to the best part is
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: because of his mom and dad. He could call Stephen
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: Spielberg on the phone, because of who his dad was.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: And to think that we've got to this end of
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: the story from where it started, with such hope, with
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: such privilege, with such money, it makes me sad, Donnie
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: it makes me sad. Also to makes me really really angry.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: I met with Nick about five or six years ago.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: I was in LA and he had a project that
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: he was working on and he wanted my advice, and
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: the project wasn't very good and he wasn't terribly talented.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: We met at the coffee shop. And let's be honest,
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: I only met with him because his dad was who
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: he was. If it'd been anybody else, if somebody had
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: contacted me on social media and said I'm writing a screenplay,
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: rob would you like to meet with me, the chance
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: on me doing it is not good. And so the
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: only thing here that made him interest in the only
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: thing that made Nick interesting was the one thing he
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: was running away from, which was his legacy, his parents,
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: his family name complicated. Donnie was going to come out
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: about this story. But today I'm not so sad. Today
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: I'm angry. Where are you? I don't know.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: Ardibly sad.
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: It's incredibly just and it sounds weird, but it's confusing.
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: It's what it is because and you know, also, I
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: think you did hit the nail on the head there too.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: It's like we you have the addiction issue. It has
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: to be It's very tricky because it's not an excuse.
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: I know a lot of people who have you know,
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: are currently addicted and who have gone through addiction.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: They didn't murder anybody.
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: And so I think that it sounds sometimes it's so
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: easy or flippant to use that as an excuse of
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: why he, you know, murdered his parents. But it's just
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: there's no telling what exactly was going on in that
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: man's head. But he's a thirty two year old man
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: living at his parents.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: But there is a whole issue that you.
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: Have to look at of like just imagine your grandpa
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: created all in the family your dad made when Harry
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: met Sally, Like you know what I'm saying, like, these
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: are just these are not just you know, random you know,
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: oh look it's that guy who created that six show
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: on Netflix or whatever, and these are these are legacies
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: that he would never be able to live up to.
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: And so it's just there's a lot of pressure there
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: and that's probably what led to the addiction, which then
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: once addiction has a whold.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: Of you, it has a hold of you.
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: And it's just sad because no one knows exactly what
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: went down that moment. But to not to get to
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: graphic here, but to slit someone's throat, which is allegedly
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: what happened. One is enough, but two people, but not
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: only just two people, your parents.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: Is a different level.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: Of hysteric brutality. It's brutality to shoot somebody's terror derbit,
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: but to use a knife, it's really personal. It's personal
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: to think they look and that look them in there,
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: and while you're murdering one, your mother is standing there
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: fighting or talking or saying it's put down the knife.
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: You can only imagine what's going on in that room.
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: Rob Ryino, he was in his seventeenth a little bit.
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: It was a big he's a big guy, a big,
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: burly guy, and he could have liked different and they
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: probably you would run away, but you're not going to
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: leave your part. You get down on your hands, on
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: your knees, and you hug the person that's had their frozen.
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: It's just the scene. And to think their daughter Romany
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: came in and saw this, Billy Crystal saw the bodies like,
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: it's just she's so so heart wrecking. You didn't kill her.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: She's lucky, very lucky. They don't. It's just a tricky relationship.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: What what does the family do now? Do they forgive him?
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: Like my sources told me that Robriner had a huge heart,
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: and I did a story yesterday that he would probably
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: want us to forgive his son if he was alive
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: today and we asked him, your son has done something terrible,
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: he would say, yes, he has. He's still my son.
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: I still love him. It is so complicated, is so rich.
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: It is so disturbing that this story is going to
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: go on for a really long time. The last time
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: there was a murder in Brentwood like this, it was O. J.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: Simpson with a family member and like that Nicole Brown,
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: it was in Brentwood. It was shocking. It's gonna go on.
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: We're gonna be careful about how we cover it, though,
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: because I don't want this to turn into a true
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: crime podcast. We are a celebrity gossip show. I know
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: you come here for a giggle for twenty minutes, so
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: don't think we were not aware of that. I want
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: to cover the big news of the day. This is
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: the biggest story of the day. Once again, We're not
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: doing a poll on this. We never do polls when
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: something's this tragic and so we're going to move on
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: with the show. Hey, Donnie Love, let's change gears a
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: little bit. What are you working on?
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: Speaking of tricky relationships, but I actually I saw the
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: photo of Madonna and Guy Ritchie awkward. Well, you know
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: what's so awkward about it was a little bit we'll
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: get in to the and the no, we'll talk about awkward.
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: So Madonna and Guy Richie, which you know, we're married
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: for years and they did that interesting Movievina, and you.
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: Know, tricky relationship there.
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: But they have kids together, and one of those kids
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: is Rocco, and I will applaud them for both showing
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: up at his art exhibit to support their son.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: That is amazing. But it was the first time they've
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: been together nearly twenty years, which.
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: Twenty to me is so bizarre as well because Rocco's
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: what twenty five? I think, I want to say, rocos
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: twenty five? Has the kids not seen him? That part
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: is so strange.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: Because how have they not been in the same room.
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: They were done on Garridgie, Well they had they had
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: a really ugly custody battle over Rocco, like and they
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: and he moved to London. So after they got divorced.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: She was she was never around, so they only ever
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: saw each other through They never saw each other. The
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: kids only saw their parents, so they were shuttled around
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: by assistants or managers or eight like. They didn't they
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: McDonald didn't drop off the kids and say, oh, you're
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: looking after them. A nanny wood or a security guard would.
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: But to be in the same room, I think you're
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: right here. It's nice to see them together, but they
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: clearly don't want to be together. And there's no rule
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: that you have to be. If you really don't like
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: me and you don't want to be in the same
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: room with me, don't come. Just don't come. We can
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: come on different different nights. And if I really want
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: my mom and dad's star power to sell my art,
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: then you have to suck it up, like you know.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: It's that thing about having famous parents here, that's the
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: topic of the day. It seems there's a lot of
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: perks that come from famous parents. My dad worked two
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: jobs that allowed me and Christine to have a lovely life,
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: to do stuff that he could pay for. But the
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: downside was we never really got to see my dad.
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: He was always working, so there's always costs and benefits
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: to all these situations. To be born as a child
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: of Madonna. If you were Madonna's son, it would be
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: an extraordinary thing. The life you live already, it's unfair.
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: We'll never get to live that life, Donna, you and I. However,
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: the tricky part is Madonna's your mom. That's tricky, tricky too.
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: I hope she's a good mom. She's a very difficult individual.
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: Whatever I've interviewed her or been around her, it ain't easy,
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: and so I hope she's not like that as a mom.
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: I don't think people change. I would imagine this is
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: so difficult. Rocco left, he went to London. He wanted
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: no part of her. They didn't speak for a really,
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: really long time. It's nice to see them friends again.
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: I do wish, though, that Eddie's art opening, she didn't
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: need to quite look so Madonna rish that's what.
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: She looked, and hat she looks ridiculous. She looked ridiculous.
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: She looked. I love you, I've always loved you, but
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: you didn't like couldn't you have put on a beautiful
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: Chanel pants suit? It's an art? She went fishes what
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: we're wearing now, Donnie to do the podcast is more
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: regular than what she turned up in a costume with
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: the sunglasses and the legs and the stockings. And I
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: just guy Richie. Honestly, I look at him. What did
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: he don't get I don't get it. I don't And
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: there was a lot of fury Madonna's fan base when
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: she married him because he was potentially homophobic. He had
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: sent some really ugly things about gay people. When you
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: look at his movies, they're pretty misogynistic. And so Madonna,
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: with all her gay followings, to marry a man that
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: potentially could be home of her it's messy. But they
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: did get together for Rockers art exhibit. He's a lucky guy.
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: I looked at the art. I'm not an artist, I'm
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: not an art critic. It looks okay, but I think
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: if it wasn't we couldn't afford it. On her son,
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: we couldn't afford it. And if I could afford it,
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: I don't know. It feels like these Neppo babies are everywhere, everywhere, everywhere, everywhere. Okay,
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: maybe along Megan Mockl, who's not a Nepper baby. We
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: have to be clear here. It's easy to hate on Meghan,
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: but she made her own money. She made about five
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: million dollars on suits, when back when she married Harry
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: she had more money cash than he did. He had
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: a lot of houses and Crown jewels and a lot
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: of paintings and picassos and family family heirloos. But she
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: actually had cash in the bank. She'd save to put money. Well,
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: now she's dragging Netflix oh into her drama with her dad.
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: So so Uss tell me. When her dad checked into hospital
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: and she did not know what to do, she had
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: her own PR people involved, but she called the Netflix
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: publicist and it was the Netflix team that reached out
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: to the dat they don't like this. Meghan's show is
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: not doing very well on Netflix. It's not being renewed.
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: It's over The PR department of a massive company like
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: Netflix are there to look after the executives and to
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: make us watch the shows. They're not your friends, Meghan,
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: they're not your employees, they're not your assistants. It's really
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: overstepping a line here. I was shocked when I found
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: out that the people calling were not Meghan's personal PR,
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: it was Netflix. They don't want to do this. Netflix
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: team around Meghan is to get us to watch a
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: cooking show. They're not prices publicists. They're not anger management publicists.
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: They're not involved in divorces and problems within families. And
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: so Meghan hit the phones and called these pr people,
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: and now the Netflix team are just like It just
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: reminds them why they don't want to be in business
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: with Meghan and Harry. It's messy. It's just so messy.
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: Nobody likes a mess. If you've got a problem of
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: personal prom don't tell your employees, Donnie, If you have
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: a personal problem, don't you be calling iHeart here to
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: get it, get it fixed. It's amazing. I see people
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: make the same mistake all the time. They think that
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: boss is the people we work with are like a family.
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: They're not. It's a job, keep it, keep it on
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: the download, deal with it without involving them. I think
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: this is a really dumb move.
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: What do you think, don It's not it's smart at all.
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: And it just all that does is if Megan was
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: hoping to, you know, rekindle any type of relationship with Netflix,
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: it's this doesn't help this, This does any thing. It
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: just burned the bridge for good. Because but the problem
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: is is that I'm sure they must be under some
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: sort of contract, and who knows where the contract ends.
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: It might end at the end of the year. So
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: I'm sort of the PR team's like, gosh, darn it,
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: like we have to do this, Like this is right.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: We're in a contract.
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: We have to we have to do. Never a good
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: reason to never a good luck. Yeah, it just reminds
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: them why, why, why they're gonna end their relationship. Okay,
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: quickly before we get a break, Patrick's oh my goodness,
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: it's the Nipper Baby show, isn't it. Patrick is struggling
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: to land a big role after White Lotus. What is
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: going on with Patrick?
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: Well? Patrick, you know he was on The White Lotus
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: and The White Little Was is a huge show. You
• 14:13

  Speaker 2: So Gail King, for no reason whatsoever, sat down with
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: Sherry Shepherd. It was a great interview, but she had
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: to ask about CBS. Sherry is great and Gail was like,
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: there might be some changes and there's some drama going on.
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: CBS doesn't like this. Gail, shut up? Why are you
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: doing this. You're in the middle of a really difficult position.

  Speaker 2: Your contract expires soon, probably not going to be renewed.

  Speaker 2: If it was going to be renewed. Now you've given

  Speaker 2: yourself a real problem because they don't like leaks. They

  Speaker 2: don't you know it's interesting if you don't have to
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: talk about it, don't You don't need to do this.
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: Like when I get asked if I want to do
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: this interview or that interview, I say no because I
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: just know it's not going to turn out well. If ever,
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: I was asked to do What's what Happens Live, I
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: would pass because Andy will come at me for all
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: the stuff I talk about his housewives. So I don't
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: know why Dale did this interview as a self inflicted wound,
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: and I would have thought she knew better and naughtiest
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: of the day. Let's end with a moment of rob
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: Happiness isn't something you find. It's something that you decide.
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: It's the moment you stop waiting for life to feel
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: perfect and you start showing up anyway. You don't need
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: a new job or a new relationship or even a
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: new version of yourself. You don't need to lose five pounds.
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: What you do need is to make a choice. You
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: need to choose. You need to choose to notice what's
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: not working. You need to choose to take the next step.
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: And it takes a lot. It's not easy. It's not
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: an easy choice, but it's an essential one because happiness
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: grows when you keep the promises to yourself, You speak honestly,
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: and you act before all your dad talks you out
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: of it. So start showing up today. Start now, not
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: tomorrow's start now, and remember, happiness is not something you're
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: just gonna find. You're not gonna stumble upon it. It's
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: not luck. It's something you decide every single morning. Donnie,
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: I tell myself today, Rob, you are gonna be happy.
