- 0:15Speaker 1: Even Night Share your host Stop Shooter with my friend
- 0:17Speaker 1: Garrett Vogela from zebone hundred hours ran show joining me, Garrett.
- 0:21Speaker 1: Are you there? Yes, Rob Shooter, I'm here. Are you there?
- 0:25Speaker 1: When we when we used to do these together in
- 0:27Speaker 1: the studio, before we were socially distancing, I knew you
- 0:30Speaker 1: were there because I could see you. Now I'm not.
- 0:34Speaker 1: It's not that I don't think you will be there,
- 0:36Speaker 1: It's that I don't totally believe in my own technical ability. Yourself. Well,
- 0:43Speaker 1: that's that's going to be the story, the motto of
- 0:45Speaker 1: the day, believe in yourself. You know what time it is, Garrett. Okay,
- 0:50Speaker 1: So this is a big story. We normally zipped through
- 0:53Speaker 1: the stories on the show, trying to get you as
- 0:55Speaker 1: much gossip as possible. We're gonna spend a little bit longer,
- 0:57Speaker 1: not the whole show, don't worry, but a little bit
- 0:59Speaker 1: longer on this already because it's so big. So Megan
- 1:01Speaker 1: marcle and Prince Harry. A new book is coming out
- 1:05Speaker 1: and people are saying this is not a royal biography.
- 1:08Speaker 1: This is a blood bath out. So the times of London,
- 1:13Speaker 1: the fanciest newspaper in London has got the first excerpts
- 1:17Speaker 1: from the tell All book. It's called Finding Freedom, Harry
- 1:20Speaker 1: Megan and the Making of a Modern Royal Family. The
- 1:24Speaker 1: book is very pro Harry and Megan. The two authors,
- 1:28Speaker 1: the two journalists that put this book together, are really
- 1:31Speaker 1: quite close to Megan. They really do enjoy this couple.
- 1:35Speaker 1: So it's sort of the first book to tell us
- 1:37Speaker 1: what happened from their perspective. Let me give you a
- 1:40Speaker 1: few can I can I ask you for them being
- 1:42Speaker 1: so close? Is and their friends are writing it? Is
- 1:45Speaker 1: this them just using their friends as a cover. We
- 1:48Speaker 1: will get to that. So we're gonna get through what's
- 1:50Speaker 1: in the book and then we'll talk about did they
- 1:52Speaker 1: actually write this book? So now you will want to
- 1:54Speaker 1: know that. So let's do a few a few of
- 1:55Speaker 1: the highlights. So Megan and Harry became international sensations, and
- 2:03Speaker 1: at one point they eclipsed even William and Kate's That's
- 2:06Speaker 1: what the book is alleging, and they're saying the royals
- 2:09Speaker 1: were pretty upset about this and felt they had to
- 2:11Speaker 1: be reigned in. They certainly did become international sensations overnight.
- 2:17Speaker 1: Maybe they took the attention away from William and Cape
- 2:20Speaker 1: for for a little bit, maybe a long term. But
- 2:22Speaker 1: the book is claiming these two change the royalty. They
- 2:25Speaker 1: were that the family there were international stars. When you
- 2:28Speaker 1: think about that claim their Garrett, I would agree. I
- 2:31Speaker 1: think once that wedding happened, once Meghan and Harry's wedding happened,
- 2:34Speaker 1: that's where the the changing of the garden, or pun
- 2:37Speaker 1: intended kind of happened. Right. They also claimed that their
- 2:40Speaker 1: popularity grew so much that people within the palace was
- 2:46Speaker 1: very concerned about it, wary of it. I believe that
- 2:49Speaker 1: I can think that that would probably happen to It's
- 2:51Speaker 1: like if you're the second banana at your job or
- 2:54Speaker 1: even in your family, that's awful. I'm the second banana.
- 3:00Speaker 1: They're in my family, like my brother Douglas is the
- 3:02Speaker 1: chosen child. I'm so that's sort of what Harry was.
- 3:09Speaker 1: And suddenly he stepped at and the old guard people
- 3:12Speaker 1: that have been in the palace. So this is not
- 3:14Speaker 1: necessarily the family, this is the institution. There's so many
- 3:18Speaker 1: people that work in the palace that a lot of
- 3:20Speaker 1: these people have been there for years and they weren't
- 3:22Speaker 1: that happy about this. I don't like this name, although
- 3:24Speaker 1: it's pretty glamorous. They referred to Megan as Harry show
- 3:27Speaker 1: girl who it's very lowler and Copeacabana, and they started
- 3:31Speaker 1: to make things difficult for her. I don't like that
- 3:33Speaker 1: at all. Some Megan told friends that she felt like
- 3:36Speaker 1: she was being put down and she felt like it
- 3:39Speaker 1: was death by a thousand cuts. So nothing big, not
- 3:43Speaker 1: one massive incident. I think we've all been looking for
- 3:46Speaker 1: the moment they fell out. That really didn't happen. This
- 3:49Speaker 1: was a gradual process. Have you ever been at a job, Garrett,
- 3:52Speaker 1: or do you have friends that are jobs they don't
- 3:54Speaker 1: really like and every day it's just another little dig
- 3:57Speaker 1: and it all adds up. What do you think, Oh yeah,
- 3:59Speaker 1: no event plea ends up and what happens you either
- 4:01Speaker 1: go crazy or you just st screw this. You gotta
- 4:05Speaker 1: get out of there, you leave, you gotta get out
- 4:07Speaker 1: of that. So so far with sorts of a green
- 4:09Speaker 1: with what the book claims. Then they said that Harry
- 4:12Speaker 1: and Megan, this is where the trouble real started, really started.
- 4:15Speaker 1: They wanted to create their own individual household within the
- 4:18Speaker 1: House of Windsor, meaning they wanted to staff their own office.
- 4:22Speaker 1: That seems fair. They should hire their own staff. They
- 4:24Speaker 1: wanted to separate from the others. They like to control
- 4:27Speaker 1: their own narrative. Remember she had had publicists and was
- 4:30Speaker 1: in l a celebrity for quite a while, and the
- 4:33Speaker 1: senior royals did not like this. What do you think
- 4:36Speaker 1: about them wanting to have their own office within the palace.
- 4:40Speaker 1: It makes sense because you gotta think. You gotta think that. Uh,
- 4:44Speaker 1: you know, as people come in, just like you know
- 4:46Speaker 1: with the president's presidents get to pick their own staff.
- 4:48Speaker 1: You have the Queen saying you're going these people will
- 4:51Speaker 1: work for you. Don't you think and and and let's
- 4:54Speaker 1: break for just a quick second. Don't you think the
- 4:57Speaker 1: queen's people are going to turn around to the Queen
- 5:00Speaker 1: and say, so, this is what I heard Megan talking
- 5:02Speaker 1: about at dinner yesterday. Do you do know what, Harry?
- 5:06Speaker 1: Just absolutely if you think about it at your office,
- 5:09Speaker 1: at your job, when the new boss comes in, if
- 5:11Speaker 1: a new boss comes in, oh there's lots of changes.
- 5:14Speaker 1: I'm so safe. At a job I barely worked. I
- 5:16Speaker 1: was so lazy, but the boss liked me. The boss left,
- 5:19Speaker 1: and then I had a new boss and it's like
- 5:21Speaker 1: started all over. It's like you have to re sort
- 5:24Speaker 1: of apply for your job. So they did not like that.
- 5:28Speaker 1: They also went on to say that they got very
- 5:31Speaker 1: frustrated taking a back seat. So in the family it
- 5:35Speaker 1: is all about Charles who's going to be the king,
- 5:37Speaker 1: and it's all about William who's going to be the king.
- 5:39Speaker 1: It never really was all about Harry. He got a
- 5:42Speaker 1: little bit frustrated with that. I understand that sometimes I've
- 5:45Speaker 1: been in jobs where I felt like maybe taken for granted.
- 5:49Speaker 1: What do you think that the job versus a family though.
- 5:51Speaker 1: That's the hard part of this, isn't it. It really
- 5:54Speaker 1: is hard. So this is what the pushback is. Let
- 5:56Speaker 1: me give you the pushback, and the British papers are
- 5:58Speaker 1: all over the So Megan told a friend that she
- 6:03Speaker 1: felt she had given up a whole life for the
- 6:05Speaker 1: Royal family the British press and I do agree if
- 6:08Speaker 1: this is said, let's not go crazy here. She maybe
- 6:11Speaker 1: changed her life for a couple of years and she
- 6:14Speaker 1: did very well out of it. So before she married
- 6:17Speaker 1: into the Royal family, she was not really an international
- 6:19Speaker 1: global superstar like j Lo. She was, you know, a
- 6:23Speaker 1: working actress. She had made some good stuff. That suits
- 6:25Speaker 1: is great, But calm down a little bit here. Before
- 6:29Speaker 1: you married Harry or dated him, I maybe knew who
- 6:33Speaker 1: you were, but you were not a superstar, fair Garrett,
- 6:36Speaker 1: we want to be. I mean, did I only know
- 6:40Speaker 1: she worked as a brief case model and deal or
- 6:43Speaker 1: no deal after she married her husband, you know what
- 6:46Speaker 1: I mean? Yeah, I didn't know that until after she
- 6:48Speaker 1: married him. But if someone had said to me a
- 6:50Speaker 1: couple of years again Megan marchael John to interview her,
- 6:53Speaker 1: I'd have to google her. Be honest, I told you
- 6:57Speaker 1: that would be one of those like, okay, outside of suits.
- 7:01Speaker 1: Now you ask mega market all you're like, I would rather.
- 7:05Speaker 1: I mean, I knew Christy taken better two years ago
- 7:07Speaker 1: than make a market I really did. So let's calm
- 7:09Speaker 1: down on the international superstar. Also to they said, Harry
- 7:12Speaker 1: is always always sort of complained about having to do photographs.
- 7:16Speaker 1: He doesn't like the media. He doesn't like the price
- 7:20Speaker 1: he has to pay all the couple has to pay.
- 7:22Speaker 1: But ultimately that price pays for this remarkable lifestyle. So
- 7:27Speaker 1: you know, there is a benefit of being a Prince
- 7:30Speaker 1: of England. Yes, you have to shake some people's hands,
- 7:33Speaker 1: you have to smile, maybe cut a ribbon or two
- 7:35Speaker 1: on a hospital. There's probably more to it than that,
- 7:38Speaker 1: but the payoff is a lovely life. It's a little
- 7:41Speaker 1: bit like celebrities that moan about being pop stars, do
- 7:44Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Getting into yes, and it's
- 7:47Speaker 1: like it drives me crazy. Even the real housewives sometimes
- 7:51Speaker 1: get a little bit mean with their fans the stuff.
- 7:55Speaker 1: But if it wasn't for those fans, you would have nothing.
- 7:57Speaker 1: So calm down there. So what we are saying in
- 8:00Speaker 1: Britain is it's not a biography, it is a blood bath.
- 8:04Speaker 1: I've flicked through some of the excerpts in the book
- 8:07Speaker 1: and I've got to admit, no slight goes unpunished. Any
- 8:12Speaker 1: perceived betrayal is never forgiven. They paint themselves or the
- 8:16Speaker 1: authors paint Harry and Megan really is the heroes here
- 8:20Speaker 1: in a story. If this was Harry Potter we were reading,
- 8:23Speaker 1: Harry would be Harry like definitely is the star of
- 8:27Speaker 1: the story. Also too, there's a there's a lot of
- 8:31Speaker 1: lot of emphasis on the moment William and Harry sort
- 8:34Speaker 1: of fell a fell a part of it and it
- 8:36Speaker 1: was when William told his brother there's no need to
- 8:39Speaker 1: rush into anything with this girl. I think that's kind
- 8:42Speaker 1: of a nice brotherly thing to say. Looking out, you
- 8:45Speaker 1: would think, Yes, Harry apparently took this girl as a
- 8:49Speaker 1: as an awful thing to say about Megan and has
- 8:52Speaker 1: not forgiven him. Also to the book, goes after Kate Middleton.
- 8:57Speaker 1: I like Kate. She's not that controversial issue, that role.
- 9:01Speaker 1: And first you're right, no, she's a great mom. She
- 9:05Speaker 1: she loves her husband. So I think going after Kate
- 9:07Speaker 1: is a mistake. There was a new survey in Britain
- 9:10Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago. Kate's now the Brits favorite royal.
- 9:13Speaker 1: She's past the queen. So in life and this is
- 9:16Speaker 1: just another life lesson here on the Naughty but Night.
- 9:19Speaker 1: Never go after the most popular person in your office,
- 9:22Speaker 1: because you won't. So like pick if you wanted to
- 9:24Speaker 1: after somebody, go after the queens, go after the queen.
- 9:28Speaker 1: So they also said that there was a particularly awkward
- 9:32Speaker 1: encounter when they went back to Britain for the very
- 9:34Speaker 1: last time. They were in Westminster Abbey and Megan tried
- 9:37Speaker 1: to make eye contact with Kate, and Kate barely acknowledged her.
- 9:41Speaker 1: Now they were inside the abbey, it's a church. It's
- 9:45Speaker 1: not time for a conga may calmed down, like when
- 9:48Speaker 1: you meet somebody in a church. It's like when your
- 9:51Speaker 1: friends get married, and if they get married in a church,
- 9:53Speaker 1: you do have to be a bit more respectful than
- 9:55Speaker 1: the after party where you can dance to Lady Gaga.
- 9:58Speaker 1: So they were very very uppous upset about that. Now,
- 10:01Speaker 1: this is what insiders are telling me. This has burned
- 10:05Speaker 1: all the bridges. There is no way back from this.
- 10:11Speaker 1: They have basically torpedoed any chance of finding a new
- 10:15Speaker 1: position within the royal family. Let's yes, let's let's remember
- 10:20Speaker 1: that their roles are still being negotiated. There has been
- 10:24Speaker 1: no decision yet on nex it. It's sort of like
- 10:27Speaker 1: a little test um at the moment, but it has
- 10:29Speaker 1: not been finalized. Now, after this, there is no way back,
- 10:33Speaker 1: and let's get to the point that you wanted to
- 10:34Speaker 1: speak about. A spokesperson for the couple have said in
- 10:38Speaker 1: a statement that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were
- 10:40Speaker 1: not interviewed and did not contribute to this book. Well,
- 10:46Speaker 1: they are now distancing themselves. However, when rumors of this
- 10:50Speaker 1: book came out, I think it was in February March.
- 10:52Speaker 1: There was lots of rumors that this was their story,
- 10:55Speaker 1: that they had contributed, and we all reported that. Nobody
- 10:58Speaker 1: pushed back then. But now they've read the book and
- 11:01Speaker 1: they've seen the backlash. Now they're running for the hills.
- 11:03Speaker 1: So do you think even though the spokesperson said they
- 11:06Speaker 1: are not, do you think they contributed? Garrett? What do
- 11:09Speaker 1: you see them going under the alias of like, uh, sorry,
- 11:14Speaker 1: Berry and Peg to two very close sources to Harry
- 11:19Speaker 1: and Meghan. Let's with all the details. Let's explain how
- 11:23Speaker 1: that works. So, as a former publicist, I know this.
- 11:25Speaker 1: You can call up a journalist and the first thing
- 11:27Speaker 1: you say is can we speak off the record? And
- 11:29Speaker 1: the journalist always says yes. What that means is I
- 11:32Speaker 1: can use what you're about to tell me, but I
- 11:34Speaker 1: can't put your name on it. So if Garrett called
- 11:36Speaker 1: me and said, this is just my fantasy, So go
- 11:39Speaker 1: with this, Garrett, which I've never done before. If you
- 11:42Speaker 1: called me and said, high Rub, can we talk off
- 11:44Speaker 1: the record, I'd say absolutely yes. And you said I'm
- 11:47Speaker 1: dating Brad Pitt, What'd say, Garrett, it's a delicious story.
- 11:51Speaker 1: Tell me all about it. Then I'd do a little
- 11:53Speaker 1: fat checking to make sure Garrett was not making that up.
- 11:56Speaker 1: And then I would write, sources close to Garrett tells
- 12:00Speaker 1: Rob Shooter that there are a couple, so you can
- 12:03Speaker 1: be your own source. Does that make sense? People don't
- 12:06Speaker 1: understand this. Often when you read anonymous sources, insiders, media players,
- 12:12Speaker 1: it's actually the person themselves, so you can leak your
- 12:16Speaker 1: own story. But instead of having your fingerprints on it,
- 12:19Speaker 1: it's a person very close to Garrett. Well, it couldn't
- 12:22Speaker 1: be any closer because it is Garrett. So a lot
- 12:24Speaker 1: of people think this happened, and there is precedent. Twenty
- 12:27Speaker 1: thirty years ago, there was this major book on Princess Diana,
- 12:31Speaker 1: major book. Andrew Morton wrote the book. It had such
- 12:34Speaker 1: inside details you couldn't get them from anybody, but but Diana,
- 12:38Speaker 1: I guess, or very close friends. When Diana died, then
- 12:42Speaker 1: Andrew told the world the source for his book was
- 12:46Speaker 1: Princess Diana. She met with him secretly. I know she
- 12:50Speaker 1: met with him secretly. He had a tape recorder who
- 12:53Speaker 1: recorded all the sessions. So he's got the proof, he's
- 12:55Speaker 1: got the receipts. As our friend Wendy would say, and said,
- 12:58Speaker 1: Diana was the source for this book. This leads us
- 13:02Speaker 1: to our big pole question of the day, Harry and
- 13:05Speaker 1: Harry getting the new book. It is a blood bath.
- 13:09Speaker 1: Will they come to regret this? Yes? So Noah. Go
- 13:12Speaker 1: to our Twitter page at Naughty Nice, Robert at Facebook
- 13:15Speaker 1: page Naughty Gossip and be sure to check back tomorrow. Wow,
- 13:20Speaker 1: that was a lot of royals, Garrett, what are you
- 13:21Speaker 1: working on? Well, let's talk about a royal to the US.
- 13:25Speaker 1: Mrs Taylor Swift. Imagine her in the royal family. The
- 13:28Speaker 1: song she would write. So so she surprised us Thursday
- 13:32Speaker 1: she said, guess what midnight tonight meaning Friday morning, putting
- 13:36Speaker 1: out an album? Be ready and fans were ready. She
- 13:39Speaker 1: put out an album called folk Lore. You'd say that
- 13:42Speaker 1: three times fast without trying to curse um. And over
- 13:45Speaker 1: the weekend one point three million sales in total, and
- 13:50Speaker 1: most of them digital because she doesn't have that Target
- 13:53Speaker 1: deal going right now because not many people going to Target.
- 13:56Speaker 1: There's no physical album. This is all downloads or stow.
- 14:01Speaker 1: So this is the way the world's going. So Folklore,
- 14:03Speaker 1: I would say personally as a fan and Rob Shooter,
- 14:06Speaker 1: I think you got to hear some of it too.
- 14:08Speaker 1: It's it's for the fans. It's it's not that that
- 14:12Speaker 1: that pop Taylor Swift. We knew the country Taylor Swift.
- 14:15Speaker 1: This was just personal feeling Taylor Swift right out of
- 14:19Speaker 1: the gate. Here we go. Uh, here's some incredible numbers.
- 14:22Speaker 1: So Spotify said she had seventy nine point four million streams,
- 14:27Speaker 1: breaking records of course for any female artist. Personally, I
- 14:30Speaker 1: think any artist really, She had over thirty five over
- 14:34Speaker 1: at at Apple. I mean, the album is definitely going
- 14:37Speaker 1: to be number one. Now here's the little juice. As
- 14:40Speaker 1: we all know, we're going to talk about Kanye and
- 14:41Speaker 1: Kim in a second. Kanye said an album was supposed
- 14:44Speaker 1: to be coming out of his last Friday. What happened?
- 14:47Speaker 1: Taylor Swift put out an album, and who comes in
- 14:49Speaker 1: number Who's probably gonna come in number one by by
- 14:52Speaker 1: many albums, Taylor Swift. Uh so there there's that interesting
- 14:56Speaker 1: fact of it. Now, as you know, the Swift ease,
- 14:58Speaker 1: the Taylor Swift fans, they thought that Taylor Swift was
- 15:01Speaker 1: going to announce an engagement in this album because what
- 15:04Speaker 1: has she been doing during quarantine? So all the fans
- 15:07Speaker 1: are excited. Then they heard the album and if you've
- 15:09Speaker 1: heard the album, you kind of know what I'm talking about.
- 15:11Speaker 1: It's it's more more slow songs, some more like it's
- 15:15Speaker 1: very exactly dreamy and it's very back. And then the
- 15:21Speaker 1: swifties go, did he did she break up with her boyfriend?
- 15:25Speaker 1: But the case maybe is not that, because Taylor Swift
- 15:28Speaker 1: actually even came out and said, hey, these are stories
- 15:31Speaker 1: I have kind of just like envisioned and made up
- 15:33Speaker 1: a little bit and pulled from different friends. So it's
- 15:36Speaker 1: not truly just about me. It's about it's about many
- 15:39Speaker 1: other things in my life. So there's that note, and
- 15:41Speaker 1: then here's some interesting stuff too. So, uh, Taylor Swift
- 15:45Speaker 1: has a great relationship with Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds.
- 15:48Speaker 1: Of course, great Hollywood couple. If you listen, there's a
- 15:51Speaker 1: little bit of an easter egg in Taylor Swift's album.
- 15:54Speaker 1: Could she have given the name of Blake Lively and
- 15:57Speaker 1: Ryland reynolds third child Betty, so she's named She's dropped
- 16:04Speaker 1: their names in previous albums. James and in the very
- 16:06Speaker 1: unusual unless you don't hear all the time. So when
- 16:09Speaker 1: I hear some with Innes and he's sung by Taylor Swift,
- 16:12Speaker 1: I got to think that's Ryan Reynolds and Blake's child,
- 16:15Speaker 1: would you not? Yes? And particularly so in the same
- 16:18Speaker 1: song she says James and Idees and then she uses
- 16:21Speaker 1: a third name better. I would guess that's the name.
- 16:24Speaker 1: You gotta think. And they have a great friendship. And
- 16:26Speaker 1: what a way to do a baby like name reveal
- 16:30Speaker 1: in my song your son, I know, naughty but nice
- 16:34Speaker 1: with Hudson. That's what we have to do. What are
- 16:36Speaker 1: the gossip in the album? What else does she say?
- 16:38Speaker 1: Let's see what else do we have? I think there's
- 16:39Speaker 1: a ticket Kanye West too. I think she has a
- 16:42Speaker 1: lyric that says, clowns, clowns to the West, Yes, Roberts,
- 16:50Speaker 1: Roberts to the East, Yes, clouns to the West. She's
- 16:53Speaker 1: doing that deliberately. Come on, I get I get it, man,
- 16:58Speaker 1: you know, given all are learning of Kanye state of
- 17:02Speaker 1: his mind, and I get that. But still you're you
- 17:07Speaker 1: just she she's been a victim many of times, too
- 17:10Speaker 1: many of people being you know, pushing her around. Oh.
- 17:12Speaker 1: I love that she does this back and it's also subtle.
- 17:14Speaker 1: It's also clever. I actually really enjoyed this album. I
- 17:18Speaker 1: listened to it over the Weekend and it sort of
- 17:20Speaker 1: remind me, forgive me, you're going to go mental. Some
- 17:22Speaker 1: people are already annoyed. Carol King had that fabulous album
- 17:26Speaker 1: many years ago, Tapestry, and it just was this beautiful
- 17:29Speaker 1: singer songwriter with beautiful lyrics melodies. Remember those. I love
- 17:34Speaker 1: a melody. I'm not a rap fan. I'm not like
- 17:37Speaker 1: a key change. I got a full Witnesy Houston ballad.
- 17:40Speaker 1: That's why I like Adele. I think this is just
- 17:43Speaker 1: such a such a beautiful album. When she's getting a
- 17:45Speaker 1: sure album rave rave reviews, and in one of the
- 17:49Speaker 1: songs that's quite shocked, she drops the F word. Oh
- 17:53Speaker 1: you know when I saw the next to the album
- 17:55Speaker 1: the album, what does it explicit? And e on a
- 18:01Speaker 1: you'll never see that on a very mental never never,
- 18:04Speaker 1: But next to a song when you're about to listen
- 18:07Speaker 1: to it, if you don't know, it means explicit. So
- 18:10Speaker 1: there's going to be some type of aired word curse
- 18:14Speaker 1: in there, So to City there next to a Tailorslift song.
- 18:17Speaker 1: Why very shocking. We're running out of time, so we've
- 18:19Speaker 1: gotta fly through the rest of these stories. Characters so
- 18:21Speaker 1: much to get in here. So Kanye West has apologized
- 18:23Speaker 1: to Kim Kardashian. He put up an apology on social
- 18:26Speaker 1: media Twitter, I hope he also apologized in person. Goodness
- 18:29Speaker 1: knows or I hope he has a number. If not,
- 18:31Speaker 1: let me know, I'll give it you. And also to
- 18:34Speaker 1: he checked into the hospital, They said he checked into
- 18:37Speaker 1: hospital for anxiety. Then he left and an ambulance was
- 18:40Speaker 1: seen at his house is ranch a couple of minutes
- 18:42Speaker 1: ten minutes later inside as are saying he went to
- 18:45Speaker 1: the hospital for anxiety. He didn't want to be checked
- 18:47Speaker 1: out at the hospital. He felt more comfortable at home,
- 18:50Speaker 1: so that's why the ambulance was there. But ultimately the
- 18:53Speaker 1: ambulance left without him. Also to Justin Biever showed up
- 18:56Speaker 1: at the ranch, but no, Kim Kim is not actually
- 19:00Speaker 1: said anything about accepting this apology. She did put out
- 19:03Speaker 1: a statement asking this all to give him a little
- 19:05Speaker 1: bit of privacy, which is diffic old when he keeps
- 19:08Speaker 1: saying so much like if you want he did say that,
- 19:13Speaker 1: So when you want to be quiet, can ye be quiet? Garrett.
- 19:16Speaker 1: We're going to take a quick break and we will
- 19:18Speaker 1: be right back. Hey, welcome back to the Naughty for
- 19:24Speaker 1: Nice Show. Let's get to our polls. We've got the results.
- 19:26Speaker 1: So Kanye West put out a new album, and actually
- 19:30Speaker 1: Kanye West did not put out a new album. Kanye
- 19:32Speaker 1: West was meant to put out a new album and
- 19:34Speaker 1: perfect disappeared when Taylor Swift dropped us. Was he scared
- 19:38Speaker 1: of Taylor? A whopping eight eight zero said yes, he was.
- 19:44Speaker 1: Let's get to our nicest of the day, and I
- 19:45Speaker 1: think we shouldn't make this Regius. You've got averages story, Garrett.
- 19:49Speaker 1: So I was gonna ask you who's our nicest in
- 19:51Speaker 1: the day, but I've given it away. Regius is our
- 19:53Speaker 1: nicest of the day. Let's talk about him. What you
- 19:55Speaker 1: can legend film when he passed away over the weekend
- 19:57Speaker 1: at the age of and uh, you know, he pretty
- 20:01Speaker 1: much said the precedent of what we know as TV talk.
- 20:04Speaker 1: You know, he created the host chair. That's interesting, that
- 20:07Speaker 1: little thing that you and I do right before we start.
- 20:09Speaker 1: I mean we kind of mimicked off of what we
- 20:12Speaker 1: actually know. That So all these shows now that opened
- 20:15Speaker 1: with a host chat, including Ryan and Kelly and lots
- 20:19Speaker 1: of the Today Show, they all have a little chat
- 20:20Speaker 1: at the top. That was something Regis created and the
- 20:23Speaker 1: reason was before Regis nobody on TV felt comfortable riffing.
- 20:27Speaker 1: They were all on teleprompter. Everything that came out of
- 20:31Speaker 1: yeah about or Barbara Walters, it was all clearly scripted.
- 20:36Speaker 1: Regis broke the role and he felt so comfortable talking
- 20:38Speaker 1: to his audience. He just like talked about his night,
- 20:41Speaker 1: and you know what, the stories were always interesting. I
- 20:44Speaker 1: loved it when he used to act to them. Remember that, Garrett,
- 20:48Speaker 1: I know, I didn't understand the moment. It was a
- 20:52Speaker 1: great no way, I'm missing my missing. What about some
- 20:55Speaker 1: of your personal interactions with him? Did you ever meet him? Oh? Yeah, no,
- 20:58Speaker 1: I knew him for twenty plus years or so. My
- 21:02Speaker 1: mom worked locally in New York at w ABC, which
- 21:05Speaker 1: was the which was the building where Regis and Kathie,
- 21:08Speaker 1: Lee and Kelly and they all worked. And uh, though
- 21:12Speaker 1: my mom didn't work on the show specifically, she worked
- 21:15Speaker 1: next to their office, so like they shared a floor
- 21:18Speaker 1: with with the production so Redis his office literally was
- 21:22Speaker 1: the next office next to my mom's. So you know,
- 21:25Speaker 1: he had this big too, two offices put together, and
- 21:29Speaker 1: he would be the guy that like I would just
- 21:31Speaker 1: I would I would see I know who he was,
- 21:34Speaker 1: but to him, I was just a kid, and he would, hey,
- 21:38Speaker 1: do you want this? So I have so much things
- 21:41Speaker 1: that that that people and and fans have sent him
- 21:47Speaker 1: that he just couldn't keep. That he has passed on
- 21:49Speaker 1: to me. You know. He would take me down to
- 21:51Speaker 1: the set and you were a little kid at the time.
- 21:54Speaker 1: Oh yeah, no, I would go. I would go to
- 21:55Speaker 1: work with my with my mom, and he would see
- 21:57Speaker 1: I would be bored because I would be sitting at
- 21:59Speaker 1: you know, my mom doing like serious work. Goes, come
- 22:01Speaker 1: with me. We'd go down. We would play on the
- 22:04Speaker 1: the Regius and Kelly set and Kathee Lee set, and
- 22:08Speaker 1: he he would sit down and he would call me
- 22:10Speaker 1: out like he was introducing me, and he would let
- 22:14Speaker 1: me run around on the set. The best advice ever.
- 22:18Speaker 1: Like I was, I was in high school and he
- 22:20Speaker 1: was just coming close to retirement. He was about a
- 22:22Speaker 1: year or two away. And he goes, kid, he goes,
- 22:26Speaker 1: he would always call me kid. He goes, if you're
- 22:29Speaker 1: going to get in this business, two things. He goes
- 22:31Speaker 1: that regious, he goes, have fun and get paid, And
- 22:34Speaker 1: he goes, as long as you're doing that, you're doing
- 22:37Speaker 1: something right. I'm you know. It was. He was one
- 22:41Speaker 1: of the reasons why I wanted to get into what
- 22:42Speaker 1: I was doing. So you know that that news hit
- 22:45Speaker 1: me kind of hard this weekend in the sense of, like,
- 22:48Speaker 1: you know, a guy that I looked up to both
- 22:50Speaker 1: on TV and in real life and got to know
- 22:53Speaker 1: is no longer with us. But you know he didn't leave.
- 22:56Speaker 1: He left a great memory for all of us and
- 22:58Speaker 1: including who wants to be a millionaire and you know
- 23:00Speaker 1: many of other laughs. So yeah, it was. It was
- 23:03Speaker 1: great reminiscent. It's lovely. Thank you so much. That's also
