  Speaker 1: We got a question in for American Mama's. Dear Mamas,
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: do Michael Douglas and Catherine Zada Jones have a right
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: to be upset at CNN? Well, let's ask, are American
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: Mama's alma mama? And joining us now? Are American Mama
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: Terry Nedderville. Okay, So, Michael Douglas and Catherine Zada Jones
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: have three children. One of them is Dylan Douglas, and
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: he is well, he's got a website where he calls
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: himself an actor and activist, a producer other things. I've
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: never seen him in anything, so I think he's maybe
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: more activist than not. But he went on CNN and
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: he was on a panel with Republican Scott Jennings.
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: This is that Abby Phillips show. Yeah, he's on there
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: all the time.
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: He's on there all the time. And apparently Dylan was
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: spouting off some Democrat nonsense, and as usual, Scott Jennings
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: just went, oh yeah, well, here's a whole plate little facts.
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: Why don't you just eat up? And Michael Douglas and
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: Catherine Jada Jones are very mad. They're angry, not at
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: Scott Jennings. They're angry at CNN for making their son
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: look like a fool.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they're like full on never again, blacklists the entire network.
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: Mad.
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: That's what Rob Shooter the Gossip Columa said. They're furious
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: at CNN. They feel like that their son was put
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: in a position to fail and be humiliated, and they are,
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: you know, they're just furious. But I'm wondering if Dylan's
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: a twenty five year old man, yes, young man, Yeah,
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: he is very aware. I mean, if he's going to
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: be an advocate for his political side, he needs to
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: be ready for a debate. And if you know that
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: you're going on CNN with Scott Jennings, you have to
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: be prepared. You know.
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: This is he's the same son, the same age as
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: my son is basically, and my son he goes to
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: work and I know he's prepared for work. I know
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: he's prepared to excel at what is what it is
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: he's doing. Now, if he were to be asked to
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: go on to CNN and talk about politics, I might go,
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure that's your that's not your wheelhouse, buddy.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: I mean, you are an expert at what you do.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: You do that very well, and you're getting better at
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: that every day because you're still a young man growing.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure that he should be on television because
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: that's not necessarily what he's prepared to do. Does that
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: make sense? So if I'm mad at anybody setting somebody
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: up for failure, if I put my son on CNN
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: and he doesn't do great, I'd be like, I think
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: I set him up for failure rather than CNN sitting
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: him for failure? Am I wrong on this?
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: No, you're completely You're so correct on that, you know.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: Scott Jennings actually went on Meghan McCain's podcast and she said, look,
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: this is a NEPO baby. That's why he's on CNN.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: Which is interesting. He said it to Megan McCain, Well,
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: that's the Senator John McCain's daughter.
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: Right, And she said herself, she said, listen, I'm the
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: queen of NEPO babies because my father was Senator McCain.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: Right, That's how we know who she is.
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: That's right. And she said she made the comment that
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: she went on the Bill maher show early on and
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: she got schooled by Paul mcgaelo or somebody like that,
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: and she said the difference is my parents did not
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: have a meltdown, especially not a public meltdown. My dad said,
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: buck up and move on. Do better. You know, read up.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: If you're going to be in this arena, if you
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: want to be in the political arena, especially with the
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: climate that it is today, you.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: Have to be prepared exactly.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: And that would be up against Scott Jennings, but that
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: would be.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: The advice I would get my son before he goes
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: on sen in. I would be like, Okay, you need
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: to make sure you do your homework. You need to know.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: You need to know this topic inside and out, and
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: not just your sides understanding of this. You need to
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: be able to logically argue the other sides side of
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: this that that's how well you know this topic. If
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: you can't do that, don't go on that show. You're
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: not ready.
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: We have to understand he lives in the bubble. A
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: lot of these people, especially in Hollywood, a lot of celebrities,
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: they live in a bubble where they are not exposed
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: to the other side. All they know is people telling
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: them how beautiful they are, how good they are, how
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: wise they are, no matter what they say, because they
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: all think the same way, and they don't really allow
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: themselves to hear the other side. Because what happened was
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: when Scott made the point, hey, wait a minute, my
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: side is the one that voted in the shutdown.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: That's what they were talking about with Dylan did.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: Not he'd started stammering because he brought up the snaps.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: He goes, well, my side is the one that voted,
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: you know times and that's the truth. And a lot
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: of times a lot of those activists will come on
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: the scene in and they will argue that they will
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: lie and say that's not true, that's not true. When
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: the truth is on the Scott jen you can actually
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: factually go check that out.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: The congressional record shows it's true.
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: That's right. So I mean I think I think Dylan uh.
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: You know, Scott said the outside of that round table
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: or panel that Dylan was a nice kid, he felt
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: honored to be there. And if I were him and
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: my parents had this public uh outburst and they were
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: fuming and had a meltdown, if I were him, I
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: would say, listen, uh, my parents they're not happy right now.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: They feel like that. You know, Scott Jennings got the
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: very best of me, and you know, this time, maybe
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: I wasn't fully aware, but I'm telling you what, this
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: is a learning curve for me. I'm not afraid to
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: go back out there. I'm not afraid to push back.
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: I am going to look into what he said because
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: that did make me think, wait, do I not know everything?
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: Like if he really want to be taken seriously, then
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: be prepared, yeah, buck up on and kind of put
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: like my parents are being silly so that he acts
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: like a grown adult.
