Speaker 1: Uh uh uh.
Speaker 2: What's up everybody? Hello, Rose Pricks and board af if
Speaker 2: we if we decide to son both, which we probably
Speaker 2: will because we're like that, we're givers.
Speaker 3: We are givers.
Speaker 4: And also, let me just a shout out to Blake
Speaker 4: Lively because I've heard she has been listening to this podcast.
Speaker 3: Hello. We may not always be kind, but we're going
Speaker 3: to be truthful. Same for you. Justin Look, we're not
Speaker 3: taking sides here. We're just journalists.
Speaker 2: We're such good juries like a lot of people. Now,
Speaker 2: you used to write for Rolling Stone, right, that's you. Yep,
Speaker 2: that was me, Yes, that was me. I got a pulletzer,
Speaker 2: but whatever, don't worry about that. Yeah. That's the funny
Speaker 2: thing about like when you when you stop doing you know,
Speaker 2: straight up journalism and you start doing podcasting, people can
Speaker 2: mistake like they can think like, oh, that doesn't feel
Speaker 2: as journalistic as your normals, you know what I mean?
Speaker 4: Did I ever tell you? I did tell you about
Speaker 4: this guy. I'm not gonna name names, okay, but there
Speaker 4: was a guy I went out with. First off, he
Speaker 4: was the guy that left his peabody on the dining
Speaker 4: room table when I came over and he's like, oh,
Speaker 4: I meant to put that away.
Speaker 2: Oh my god.
Speaker 4: Okay, But then also he name dropped so much and
Speaker 4: he was like, my friend, let's say was Julia because
Speaker 4: it sounds like that kind of names, like my friend
Speaker 4: Julia New York. Do you want to pull its her?
Speaker 4: And it's like, shut the fuck, shut up, just shut up.
Speaker 4: I mean, I understand, I understand the inclination to want
Speaker 4: to share that I do.
Speaker 3: I do, but also just shut up.
Speaker 2: Have we ever discussed the fact and I think we
Speaker 2: have that we both there were people, Oh my god,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna get myself in trouble for this, but you
Speaker 2: know what cares. But do you remember a time years
Speaker 2: ago where when Benstein money was a thing? I did
Speaker 2: not write on it. Do you remember? But the writers
Speaker 2: that did write on it? And I knew some of
Speaker 2: them personally. No, we are not going to name names,
Speaker 2: but I have some friends that wrote on that show
Speaker 2: and some let's just say acquaintances, not fame, same girl,
Speaker 2: and they won numerous emmys. I think that show did.
Speaker 2: And oh my god, were those people so fucking obnoxious
Speaker 2: about it. It's like, guys, it's a game show. But
Speaker 2: oh it was the same part of a staff. You
Speaker 2: didn't like go out and do your own. This wasn't
Speaker 2: like best Actress, right, you were part of this made
Speaker 2: a documentary that like exposed crises going on in the world. No,
Speaker 2: you wrote, yes, you wrote questions or a game show.
Speaker 2: But they were always talk about it. I think I
Speaker 2: know numerous people and they were all so elitist about it,
Speaker 2: talked about it constantly. Everybody's resume had any winner and
Speaker 2: it was like everybody, calm the fuck down, Calm the
Speaker 2: fuck down.
Speaker 4: About when I'm gonna put on my resume, like keybody
Speaker 4: a word holder.
Speaker 3: I didn't say I want it. I touched it. I've
Speaker 3: touched some Emmys. No big deal, no big deal.
Speaker 2: No big deal. You don't even brag about it. You're
Speaker 2: just like just part of my life. It's like holding
Speaker 2: other people's Emmys has just been something I've done.
Speaker 4: I mean, that's just who I am. Yeah, you guys,
Speaker 4: we have more on the Blake Lively. I mean, buckle
Speaker 4: up for a while because this is obviously ever evolving,
Speaker 4: just like the Johnny Depp thing was.
Speaker 3: And you know, thank you to Blake for that.
Speaker 4: We appreciate because we love this shit. We don't like
Speaker 4: your pain. We don't want either of you to be
Speaker 4: in pain. But as I've said, all this money, all
Speaker 4: these assholes suing each other for almost a billion dollar
Speaker 4: half a billion dollars, we could just stop give it
Speaker 4: to people in need, especially in this world that we
Speaker 4: live in right now. But these assholes, none of them
Speaker 4: are going to do that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you know what I want to say. Last
Speaker 2: time we recorded, and it was not that long ago
Speaker 2: that we recorded about this topic, I was so worried.
Speaker 2: I was like, oh, oh, mindy, mind afraid. I was
Speaker 2: so afraid. I was living in fear that people were
Speaker 2: going to come for me and they were going to say, like, oh,
Speaker 2: you don't like women, you don't support women, and you
Speaker 2: know what, fuck it. I've read a lot of stuff
Speaker 2: on this now and I don't I do not think
Speaker 2: Blake Lively isn't the right I'm going to say it.
Speaker 4: And I don't know who's in the right in the situation.
Speaker 4: But you and I got not into a tiff, but
Speaker 4: a little. You kind of corrected me. You had you
Speaker 4: made me come corrected when I said, way back at
Speaker 4: the beginning of US I was giving stories about I
Speaker 4: even said I'm like, I don't know which is which,
Speaker 4: but I know that Blake is notoriously difficult and kind
Speaker 4: of awful.
Speaker 3: And you're like, well, that doesn't have anything to do
Speaker 3: with it. I was like, assured it.
Speaker 2: I was like, but yeah, But but that's when I
Speaker 2: thought that you were going to be on the wrong
Speaker 2: side of things, and I didn't want to be. I
Speaker 2: didn't want to join you well at this getting in
Speaker 2: trouble and you were willing to go on a limb
Speaker 2: and say, like, I do think there's where there's smoke,
Speaker 2: there's fire, and I was like, you know what, if
Speaker 2: anyone's going to get canceled, let it be Cecily. And
Speaker 2: I don't want any part of that.
Speaker 3: Yes, and I'm.
Speaker 2: Now I'm okay, But now I'm like, you know what, Uh,
Speaker 2: A lot of stuff has come to light, and I
Speaker 2: just don't think that it's I think that I'm glad
Speaker 2: she's getting caught doing what she's doing.
Speaker 4: I'm going to say that, yeah, And it doesn't mean
Speaker 4: that Justin is perfect. It doesn't mean that he didn't
Speaker 4: do some shitty, gross, sexually harassing type things we do.
Speaker 2: And nothing that I've I wouldn't protect him from that though,
Speaker 2: but no gross harassing things that have proof yet.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, I mean, didn't he cheat. I think he cheated.
Speaker 4: I mean he's you know, he's admittedly and not. I
Speaker 4: mean that doesn't make him any of these things. But
Speaker 4: if you if you tear down a set, if you go, okay,
Speaker 4: I'm going to just like, what is it like, go
Speaker 4: through everything that happens on this set with a fine
Speaker 4: tooth comb and look at like some of the stuff
Speaker 4: he's doing and saying and calling it too in the
Speaker 4: morning and all that stuff.
Speaker 3: It's not appropriate.
Speaker 2: But she called him at two in the morning first,
Speaker 2: and I didn't call her at two in the morning.
Speaker 2: He left her a voice memo, and she is the
Speaker 2: one who left it first.
Speaker 3: So I one hundred percent agree with you.
Speaker 4: I'm just trying to do like a blanket statement to
Speaker 4: say we don't one hundred percent not yet, but we
Speaker 4: we have more information and we're here to.
Speaker 2: I feel like you're kind of indicting my journalistic like
Speaker 2: I just told you that. Oh my god, Oh my god,
Speaker 2: I haven't notedly questioned.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, I got Villain's here. Hold on, he
Speaker 3: wants to talk to you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I also want a Nobel Peace Prize for Literature.
Speaker 1: What he's trying to back me up in his way,
Speaker 1: but it's just a total word salad and I don't.
Speaker 2: Sounds like he's trying to pat himself on the back
Speaker 2: for something, right, which has nothing to do with Justin Baldoni.
Speaker 3: Bob.
Speaker 2: It becomes kind of you directed. Did you not direct
Speaker 2: the movie that? That movie that just.
Speaker 3: Came out with him a complete unknown?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: I directed that.
Speaker 4: I cast Timothy Chalome and talk about nightmares and that
Speaker 4: is actually true, he really is really yes, yes, oh
Speaker 4: my god, then you could imagine.
Speaker 3: Can I start with this one quick?
Speaker 2: Taylor Swift? Yes, let's talk. This is?
Speaker 4: This is I've been like, ah, so we did. We
Speaker 4: covered this story. TMZ has a new angle on the
Speaker 4: story about Taylor Swift. Let me remind you has been
Speaker 4: very good friends with Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds for
Speaker 4: years and years and years.
Speaker 3: Like Blake calls them besties.
Speaker 4: I don't think Taylor uses that word, but it's just funny,
Speaker 4: like you know, whoever the most popular one is the
Speaker 4: one that the other one's going to try to latch onto, right, So,
Speaker 4: but they are very good friends. I mean Taylor like
Speaker 4: wrote songs about their kids on one of her albums,
Speaker 4: like for Real, good kids, good friends.
Speaker 2: So Blake, as you have songs about Taylor's kids, Taylor
Speaker 2: wrote songs about Blake and Ryan's kidds. Oh, okay, Taylor
Speaker 2: does not have kids.
Speaker 4: So she so Taylor, as we know, like Blake used her,
Speaker 4: you know, allegedly like dropped Taylor's names, like saying like
Speaker 4: you know, these are my dragons, this is my bestie
Speaker 4: and this is what we want, so you better basically
Speaker 4: all that. We already covered all that, so I'm not
Speaker 4: going to go into that full story. But here's the
Speaker 4: new thing. So TMZ has a new source, I guess
Speaker 4: or a source that says and we already talked about
Speaker 4: how Taylor this is from them. Taylor believes Blake timed
Speaker 4: her meeting with Justin because remember Justin was coming over
Speaker 4: to talk about the script.
Speaker 3: Yes, and Taylor dropped at Blake's request.
Speaker 4: Right, and Taylor dropped by, but not for according to
Speaker 4: the Taylor's not for that meeting. She was just told
Speaker 4: to drop by, right, did not know why. Now we
Speaker 4: don't know totally if this is true, but this is
Speaker 4: what's being alleged and was later left quote baffled by Blake,
Speaker 4: characterizing it as at her as a dragon, and the
Speaker 4: source said, it's weird to say that about a friend.
Speaker 3: But here's the new thing. Okay, the source.
Speaker 4: Says Taylor this, whoever, the sore says Taylor is also
Speaker 4: learning that Blake, Oh my god, get ready, Blake has
Speaker 4: been inappropriately leveraging Taylor's name for a long time, like
Speaker 4: way before this, like telling like, here's an example, told
Speaker 4: a young actress. I don't know if they're going to
Speaker 4: give the name, telling a young actress that Taylor quote
Speaker 4: cast her, which simply did not happen. TMZ dropped a
Speaker 4: new podcast on Wednesday called Two Angry Men, in which
Speaker 4: Harvey asked Justin's lawyer, that's Brian Friedman, who obviously TMZ
Speaker 4: is t like siding with They do this. They they
Speaker 4: take a side and then they just go after them journalistically.
Speaker 4: They're probably paid off. Honestly, I know.
Speaker 2: About like doing things journalistically.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, no, sorry, what Bob go to bed?
Speaker 3: My god, he's playing his harmonica so loud. Oh my god,
Speaker 3: you hate that, so Brian.
Speaker 4: So, Justin's lawyer, Brian Harvey asked him about like, like
Speaker 4: are they gonna subpoena tailor for a deposition, and then
Speaker 4: that's all.
Speaker 3: That's a different story that I have to open. But
Speaker 3: this is like, this is kind of huge.
Speaker 2: So I wonder if Blake, I mean, from what it
Speaker 2: sounds like, Blake is mad that this is going on.
Speaker 2: And so because what happened was m what's his name,
Speaker 2: Justin was told that Blake was rewriting like some of
Speaker 2: the scenes. So he was trying to be very like
Speaker 2: kiss Assy and like, oh my god, like that's amazing, Like,
Speaker 2: oh my god, it can't it can't do anything but
Speaker 2: make the script better, because you're really talking about some
Speaker 2: creative geniuses like Taylor Swift. Like what I mean, that's
Speaker 2: of course, do what you want. But meanwhile, Taylor Swift,
Speaker 2: so she was trying to say, oh, yeah, Taylor Swift
Speaker 2: is totally on board with my changes. She likes my version,
Speaker 2: like Taylor's version, Taylor Taylor's version a lot better than
Speaker 2: your version. And he was like, what had what is
Speaker 2: being claimed is that he was like, well, hold on
Speaker 2: a minute, you can't just like, I mean, let's talk
Speaker 2: about it, but like you can't just be like, well,
Speaker 2: Taylor likes it. So this is what we're doing, and
Speaker 2: that's kind of the problem. That's what led him to
Speaker 2: be like, well, I have my dragons and they really
Speaker 2: want the script to be this way. And I believe
Speaker 2: that what Taylor is saying is like I didn't even
Speaker 2: know that. I had nothing to do with that, right,
Speaker 2: I'm just her friend. I was not at all like
Speaker 2: thinking that the script should be one way or another.
Speaker 2: I did not even way in on that.
Speaker 3: As far as we know, she hasn't. We haven't heard
Speaker 3: her say it.
Speaker 4: So it's always funny when all these sources say that
Speaker 4: Taylor said or longtime Pale whatever.
Speaker 3: But the thing that's interesting is Taylor has worked her.
Speaker 4: Whole life to curate and craft a persona and she
Speaker 4: works real hard. So yeah, she's not gonna want somebody
Speaker 4: to like misuse her name. It's just not so when
Speaker 4: I opened the story, it's funny on whether the lawyer,
Speaker 4: Justin's lawyer is going to depose Taylor, and the basic
Speaker 4: answer is, according to E News, he's like, well, I
Speaker 4: don't know yet, so that's kind of a non It
Speaker 4: was kind of a fall. But he noted that if
Speaker 4: Taylor that if Taylor Swift could provide helpful details to
Speaker 4: support Justin's case, he would not hesitate to depose her
Speaker 4: and said, quote, anyone that reasonably has info that can
Speaker 4: provide evidence in this case is going to be deposed
Speaker 4: for sure. So that's interesting to me because we like,
Speaker 4: she's gonna I mean, I don't, I don't, I don't know.
Speaker 4: I get a like, I don't know what Taylor really
Speaker 4: is saying. I'm sure she'll say something. But that's so
Speaker 4: crazy because you know, there's a Taylor Swift song in
Speaker 4: the movie. Yes, yes, do you know what it is?
Speaker 4: I don't remember, but it says here this is probably
Speaker 4: something we talked about. But Justin accuses Blake Lively of
Speaker 4: making the veiled threat about Taylor the Taylor Swift song,
Speaker 4: basically saying, like, you know, I had to do it
Speaker 4: your way, we wouldn't get the song.
Speaker 2: Well, remember that he that she tried to have it
Speaker 2: rescored or something. She got him like kicked off of it.
Speaker 4: And then yeah, she had his film by wait. Some
Speaker 4: of Lively's alleged demands, according to the court filings, included
Speaker 4: having Justin's film by credit removed from the posters, Yeah
Speaker 4: he directed the movie, and then also she wanted more
Speaker 4: time in the editing room with her personal editor to
Speaker 4: over see the final cut.
Speaker 2: This, lady, so I'm gonna I have something that I
Speaker 2: cannot tell you the source of. Okay, but just like
Speaker 2: you're just gonna have to go with me, because you
Speaker 2: guys are my friends. You know, like my journalistic background,
Speaker 2: like you know all that. So you're gonna have to
Speaker 2: just believe me when I tell you that I was
Speaker 2: told by somebody. Okay, this is I want to be clear,
Speaker 2: this is a bit of hearsay.
Speaker 4: Okay, So you're just everything is yes, I mean even
Speaker 4: the TMC should is hearsay.
Speaker 2: Yeah. But I do know somebody who who is friends
Speaker 2: with somebody who worked on the movie. And this was
Speaker 2: years ago, Okay, so this was when it was actually
Speaker 2: like filming, and this is a this is a somebody
Speaker 2: I know very well. Their friend. Okay, so their friend
Speaker 2: apparently at the time, would would send them messages with
Speaker 2: like text them and go like oh my god. And
Speaker 2: they were you know, I think I don't think they
Speaker 2: knew justin first. I think they I don't know how
Speaker 2: they got hired on the film. Okay, they were young.
Speaker 2: They were young. It was like an intern they were
Speaker 2: like started as an intern, okay, and they said that
Speaker 2: Blake was an absolute nightmare and that she apparently refused
Speaker 2: to nothing. It was like good enough for her, they said,
Speaker 2: and it was common knowledge apparently, So so I'll finish
Speaker 2: that what I was saying there first. So apparently she
Speaker 2: would not wear any of the wardrobe that they were,
Speaker 2: you know, they fitted her for. So she was, you know,
Speaker 2: ignoring the wardrobe department and like doing her own wardrobe.
Speaker 2: And this person I won't even say if their man
Speaker 2: or woman was saying that the clothes that she was
Speaker 2: picking all by herself were hideous, and it was like
Speaker 2: really upsetting to justin because like she wouldn't let him
Speaker 2: because he's the director of the movie, right, and she
Speaker 2: I think that's funny. I feel like I'd be exactly
Speaker 2: the same I've told you when we when I've had
Speaker 2: to do like make up for television and stuff, I
Speaker 2: like go in the other room and take half of
Speaker 2: it off. And yeah, I mean I kind of get
Speaker 2: it from the actor side of things, But but I
Speaker 2: heard she was doing things. This is just what I heard,
Speaker 2: and this is this is not from this specific source.
Speaker 2: The Okay, the source told me that told well sources.
Speaker 2: My friend was heard from the source. Okay, I want
Speaker 2: to be I want to be correct and not like
Speaker 2: overstate things. My friend said that, according to her friend,
Speaker 2: people cried every day on the set because of Blake Lively,
Speaker 2: like she constantly made people cry. She was super super mean,
Speaker 2: she was extremely extreme diva behavior, a lot of not
Speaker 2: showing up for set, not showing up on time. Everybody
Speaker 2: just was waiting around for her, not showing up at
Speaker 2: all sometimes like just a total disaster. And that Justin
Speaker 2: was really really kind to everybody, maybe what out of
Speaker 2: his way all the time to make everybody This person
Speaker 2: is now still in touch with Justin interesting.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Well, I mean I've told you, and I have to,
Speaker 4: Like it's hard because I have to tell you without
Speaker 4: telling you exactly what they did. But I have someone
Speaker 4: who's who's a friend of mine, close friend who like
Speaker 4: specifically directly worked with both Ryan and Blake. And I've
Speaker 4: heard stories for years about Blake. I mean horrendous things
Speaker 4: I didn't even believe. I'm like, no way, could someone
Speaker 4: be that awful? Come on, you're being sensitive? Mm hmm,
Speaker 4: oh no, no, I mean like directly to my friend,
Speaker 4: like really bad shit. Again, that doesn't mean that anything
Speaker 4: she's saying, you know, like, it doesn't I'm trying to
Speaker 4: kind of go back to what you said initially, even
Speaker 4: though I know you've kind of changed your mind. It
Speaker 4: doesn't mean that some of what she says doesn't have merit.
Speaker 4: And we're about to get to this crisis team, which
Speaker 4: I'm I think sacros either. But let me just tell
Speaker 4: you really quick because I thought of the other person
Speaker 4: when they were doing the Sex and the.
Speaker 3: City reboot and just like that our favorite topic. Mm.
Speaker 4: Apparently Cynthia Nixon was a nightmare for the costume department,
Speaker 4: of all the.
Speaker 3: People to where what they said.
Speaker 4: Apparently, both Sarah Jessica Parker and Cynthia during Sex and
Speaker 4: the City they both were combative, but Sarah, according to
Speaker 4: this costume person, was always right, basically in a good way.
Speaker 3: She'd be like Sarah was like, oh, let's try this, and.
Speaker 4: It was always amazing, and the costume person was like, yeah, no,
Speaker 4: that's better.
Speaker 3: That's good.
Speaker 4: But then like Cynthia would be like, let me wear
Speaker 4: this like clown suit and they're like no. She was
Speaker 4: equally as difficult and sure of her opinion. But like
Speaker 4: the result was horrendous.
Speaker 2: Right, I was gonna say. I mean the Sarah Jessica
Speaker 2: Parker's outfits were iconic, So I guess she was doing
Speaker 2: something right if she was arguing for stuff.
Speaker 4: Yes, and she like knows her fashion and I mean, yeah,
Speaker 4: let's go with her on that one. But okay, so
Speaker 4: let's get to this but othere.
Speaker 2: One quick thing though, is about the costuming. Thing is
Speaker 2: that according to what I read, like a lot of
Speaker 2: what she wanted was to which tracks with her personality,
Speaker 2: was like she wanted to be wearing like five thousand
Speaker 2: dollars shoes, and the argument was kind of like, but
Speaker 2: you own a flower store, like you wouldn't be wearing
Speaker 2: five thousand dollars shoes, And she just didn't care. She
Speaker 2: was just like, no, that's what I want to wear.
Speaker 4: There was a picture and I don't know if it
Speaker 4: was a joke or not. People have been posting these
Speaker 4: photos and I can't tell their photoshopter what. But there's
Speaker 4: a picture where she it looks like she drew the
Speaker 4: red on the soul of her the bottom of her
Speaker 4: shoe to make it look like lubaitons.
Speaker 3: She made it look red. I mean, there's all kinds
Speaker 3: of crazy shit. She's so ridiculously awful. I can't but.
Speaker 2: I guess maybe. Yeah. And just the last thing before
Speaker 2: we go to that thing was that apparently it was
Speaker 2: a very big thing around all the people that she
Speaker 2: did not Rea the book, which I do think is
Speaker 2: absolutely crazy. And there's a video which we won't play
Speaker 2: right now because it's really not that important, but where
Speaker 2: she is stumbling around to talk about how they really
Speaker 2: captured the book, and she's just talking a lot of
Speaker 2: fucking nonsense words like word salad, like yeah, I just
Speaker 2: really think they really captured like the essence of like
Speaker 2: you know what we were trying to capture, And you
Speaker 2: can just absolutely tell that she has no clue what
Speaker 2: she's talking about.
Speaker 4: Also, don't forget if you haven't seen it or read it,
Speaker 4: this is a story about like domestic abuse, and so
Speaker 4: that was part of the problem too. How cheery she
Speaker 4: says she was supposed to be cheery, she was told
Speaker 4: to be by the studios because they were.
Speaker 3: Billing this as a rom com.
Speaker 4: And maybe that's true, but then she would work in
Speaker 4: like a plug for her like hair products.
Speaker 3: Yes, she's she's just ridiculous. I mean, she's so now, okay.
Speaker 4: So now this brings us to this and now I'm
Speaker 4: not really on the side because the thing that got
Speaker 4: us on Blake's side initially was less about the harassment
Speaker 4: or whatever Justin was up to and more about the
Speaker 4: fact that he hired this PR team to kind of
Speaker 4: bury her, which you know, they both obviously had some
Speaker 4: PR teams, they both I mean, everybody was a.
Speaker 3: PR team, right, so everybody was doing what they do.
Speaker 4: But he hired this notoriously ridiculous crisis specialist. Well now
Speaker 4: they are suing as of like yesterday, but there's more
Speaker 4: information today. This crisis specialist, his name is Jed Wallace,
Speaker 4: is suing Blake now for seven million dollars for saying
Speaker 4: that she that all her campaign against him is harming
Speaker 4: his reputation. Now he sounds like a piece of shit.
Speaker 4: If I'm honest, none of these people. I don't want
Speaker 4: to hang out with any of these except for maybe
Speaker 4: Justin if I want to go, maybe do some yok
Speaker 4: crunchy yoga. But okay, so Jed Wallace and his company
Speaker 4: Street Relations, do we talk about this?
Speaker 3: I talked about my radio shows.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, we talked about it, just you and me. Personally.
Speaker 3: Okay, he taught he.
Speaker 4: This is a quote filed the seventh quote from uh
Speaker 4: w U s A nine. So it's a station or something, Okay,
Speaker 4: and they quote filed the seven million dollar lawsuit in
Speaker 4: federal court in Texas on Tuesday, says he had nothing
Speaker 4: to do with any campaign to harm Lively's reputation, as
Speaker 4: she is alleged in her court filing. He is not
Speaker 4: among the defendants in her federal lawsuit against Justin, his
Speaker 4: production company and publicist, in which she I don't know
Speaker 4: this goes on.
Speaker 2: She she accused him of sexual harassment, too accused Jed. Yes,
Speaker 2: that's part of the that's part of the problem. That's
Speaker 2: part of the thing that he's suing over. Oh my god, Yes,
Speaker 2: she she sued him for sexual harassment, so that that's.
Speaker 3: Like the what is the story there?
Speaker 2: Do you have that?
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't remember that. Somehow I missed in
Speaker 3: all of this.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna pause us. Okay, okay, we're back. And I
Speaker 2: was wrong. She didn't sue him for sexual harassment. She's
Speaker 2: suing him for She was suing him for harassed. She
Speaker 2: was naming him in the harassment lawsuit, right right, he's
Speaker 2: mad and suing. He's saying he's losing work. Not only
Speaker 2: is he saying he lost work, but he's saying future work.
Speaker 2: I love when they do that.
Speaker 3: All the work for the rest of my life. It's
Speaker 3: going to look.
Speaker 4: Affect that because she named she said his name. She
Speaker 4: spoke the name that dare not be invoked, the name
Speaker 4: of Jedballace. So I mean, I get why, I guess,
Speaker 4: I mean kind of this is this is his job,
Speaker 4: you know, it says here and I don't know what
Speaker 4: this is dexter two dot com that he is a
Speaker 4: self jued wallis quote a self described hired gun. He's
Speaker 4: that's in the New York Times article. So remember that's
Speaker 4: the article right that talks about it all that justin
Speaker 4: sued the New York Times for I believe almost half
Speaker 4: a billion dollars, sued Blake Person for two hundred and
Speaker 4: fifty million.
Speaker 2: This is what we're gonna this is what we're going
Speaker 2: to be. This is what the trial is going to
Speaker 2: be about. I believe, right.
Speaker 4: I mean, there's so many layers to this, but I
Speaker 4: just don't It's it's shockingly insane, and it's shocking how
Speaker 4: quick we were to be like fuck this, fuck this
Speaker 4: PR team. Oh my god, I can't believe that we
Speaker 4: all fall for it. But now, I mean, oh my god,
Speaker 4: I just had a thought. Are we once again being
Speaker 4: like goodwinked by the PR team now that we're all
Speaker 4: like on Justin's side and we're like, Blake's awful, Are
Speaker 4: they doing their magic on us?
Speaker 3: That was the whole basis of this thing.
Speaker 2: I don't think so. And I'm going to tell you why,
Speaker 2: because the because we all jumped to that conclusion and
Speaker 2: Justin came with the receipts. So what we're seeing is
Speaker 2: that Justin's like, oh, hell no, I'm just because you're
Speaker 2: like a huge actress and you know, the one that
Speaker 2: feels that she's the star of the movie and that
Speaker 2: the whole movie was because of her, and I'm not important,
Speaker 2: and you manage to get me off of it. I'm
Speaker 2: gonna I will show all the receipts. And he did.
Speaker 2: And there's not a lot she's saying in response to that,
Speaker 2: And she's releasing stuff too that really kind of exonerates him.
Speaker 2: So some of the stuff that she's even bringing out
Speaker 2: is like, well, yeah, don't see the problem with that.
Speaker 2: Like the thing about the baby on a boob, right,
Speaker 2: you probably have a baby on your boob. It's like
Speaker 2: you look at the way she talks also to him,
Speaker 2: and you can't. And then he's like, look, here's the text,
Speaker 2: here's everything, every time the thing that she accused him
Speaker 2: of fat shaming, and then he released all the texts
Speaker 2: from that and it's clearly not fat shaming her. She
Speaker 2: accused him apparently Ryan Reynolds screamed at him for asking
Speaker 2: about her weight, how much she weighs, and it had
Speaker 2: nothing to do with body shaming her. We heard all
Speaker 2: the text We've heard all the conversations between them where
Speaker 2: he was so clearly being like super supportive of her
Speaker 2: and saying whatever you need, and you look amazing, and
Speaker 2: please don't worry about your body. Only reason he needed
Speaker 2: to know is because he was training with a trainer
Speaker 2: and he was has like a back injury and he
Speaker 2: was going to have to pick her up.
Speaker 4: So yeah, yeah, I mean yes, And I just want
Speaker 4: to give I want to give one more point of view. Yeah,
Speaker 4: just like it's not about that, but one person that
Speaker 4: so you know, Blake was in a fantastic movie by
Speaker 4: the way, I know it's a bad time to plug
Speaker 4: her movie. But we all loved A Simple Favor with
Speaker 4: Anna Kendrick, Right, I loved it, paulf is it fig
Speaker 4: or fig a fi?
Speaker 3: Yeah? You saw this right. He's come to her defense.
Speaker 4: So somebody, so they've announced that there's going to be
Speaker 4: a sequel, which I'm personally very excited about, called another
Speaker 4: Simple Favor, such a brilliant movie the first one, And
Speaker 4: so somebody wrote on Insta or some social media they
Speaker 4: were like, oh, okay, well whose cuts are going to
Speaker 4: be Paul's cut or Blake's cut? Like, ah, how much
Speaker 4: to Blake take over?
Speaker 3: So Paul.
Speaker 4: Went like, so she said that, and Paul said, I
Speaker 4: just want to be clear. Let me find exactly what
Speaker 4: he said. You know why you're doing that, because you're
Speaker 4: a journalist. You know you're not gonna just you want
Speaker 4: to get the right quote. He said, quote, it's my cut,
Speaker 4: there is no other cut. I just wanted to clear
Speaker 4: that up. And at first you're like, okay, well all right,
Speaker 4: but then he said, quote Blake has been nothing but
Speaker 4: supportive and a dream to work with. She is the best,
Speaker 4: and she's an amazing collaborator, and I'm her biggest fan.
Speaker 4: So I just want to put that out there, just
Speaker 4: as we are showing everything that.
Speaker 2: Is anybody with her obviously didn't she obviously didn't try
Speaker 2: to take over his movie, and she did well one
Speaker 2: hundred percent try to take over this movie from Justin right.
Speaker 2: So two different experiences that were somebody else.
Speaker 3: Here's another thing.
Speaker 4: There's so many, it's just like will never end. Here's
Speaker 4: another thing that I find interesting. Apparently, according to a
Speaker 4: studio insider who worked on the film, whoever that is
Speaker 4: you know, said that Kendrick, Anna Kendrick and Blake Lively
Speaker 4: were not speaking after working on the film. And then
Speaker 4: there was a TikTok video that I remember seeing where
Speaker 4: it looked like it looked like they hated each.
Speaker 3: Other, and I saw it.
Speaker 4: I remember seeing that, and I don't think that's Anna.
Speaker 2: I think that's why I've heard lake. I've heard nothing
Speaker 2: but good things about Anna Kendrick.
Speaker 3: Yes, me too.
Speaker 4: And although throughout it all, Paul Bigue has denied those rumors.
Speaker 3: That's total bs.
Speaker 4: Sorry, he's responded to a user who was saying that,
Speaker 4: So he's just getting in there. The movie is finished
Speaker 4: and coming out soon. Don't believe every don't believe anything
Speaker 4: you read on social media these days. Well then I
Speaker 4: don't believe you, Paul. You're on social media saying this.
Speaker 4: I don't know what to believe. But I saw the
Speaker 4: video for myself of Anna. They were doing some kind
Speaker 4: of talk show and Blake was just shooting her daggers and.
Speaker 3: I don't remember exactly why, but it was uncomfortable.
Speaker 4: It's a mean she's mean and I don't like her,
Speaker 4: and I don't care what anybody says.
Speaker 3: I don't like her.
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, this is this is what we're hearing.
Speaker 2: And like I said, I was, I like when my
Speaker 2: friend was telling me about her friend who sent her
Speaker 2: all this, who at the time years ago, was like,
Speaker 2: oh my god, this this woman is a nightmare, having
Speaker 2: nothing to do with this lust. This was like year,
Speaker 2: this was years ago. Hmm. On this movie though, so
Speaker 2: there's you know, I'm sorry, but there's a lot of
Speaker 2: people saying it, and it sounds to me like justin.
Speaker 2: I mean, look, if she hadn't sued him, she was
Speaker 2: suing him to protect her reputation because she was getting
Speaker 2: backlash for what she was actually doing, which was trying
Speaker 2: to advertise her frickin' jeens and saying I'm going to
Speaker 2: be a Genes influencer instead of talking at all about
Speaker 2: domestic violence. So that's on her.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and the movie does suck. So I do wonder
Speaker 4: if there is a full Blake version, let release it?
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I want to see you there's a
Speaker 2: better version. I mean, I don't know that there is.
Speaker 2: What was I reading? Okay, now now I'm just going
Speaker 2: off the rail. Shit, what if there is a Taylor's version?
Speaker 2: My god?
Speaker 3: And it's just nonsense.
Speaker 4: It's all it's all her dressed up like Jake Jillen
Speaker 4: Hall like she did in the in the her Man video,
Speaker 4: which I love. But like you're just like, oh, okay, well,
Speaker 4: that doesn't have anything to do with the book. It's
Speaker 4: just you singing about moving to Tennessee when you were young.
Speaker 4: That's not even like ahuh.
Speaker 2: And it really does have nothing to do with the
Speaker 2: book at all.
Speaker 4: And she's like, it's all about John Mayer and how
Speaker 4: she hates them, right right.
Speaker 2: She doesn't understand why people are mad at her when
Speaker 2: they're like, but you missed the whole point of the movie,
Speaker 2: and she's like, no, I didn't.
Speaker 3: She's like it's my version, it's Taylor's version. Yeah.
Speaker 4: I have one more story that Yeah, now this is
Speaker 4: from my head, so now I'm trying to look it up.
Speaker 3: There was a story that I read. Yeah, it was
Speaker 3: something that I.
Speaker 4: Read yesterday about Blake directing something and it had to
Speaker 4: do with this movie, like she took a shot at
Speaker 4: directing a scene or something and it was nonsensical. It
Speaker 4: was like non usable. Let me see if I can
Speaker 4: find this. I know something about that too. Was it
Speaker 4: a music video? It is Taylor Swift's music video. And
Speaker 4: by the way, AOL says, Blake Lively and Taylor Swift
Speaker 4: are still quote close friends in twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, but that's but as of a month ago.
Speaker 2: I mean, okay, here it is, I found it. Okay, Yeah.
Speaker 4: Blake Lively directed Taylor Swift and Miles Teller in one
Speaker 4: of Taylor's Oh Yeah.
Speaker 2: The story is basically that Blake is wanting all these
Speaker 2: changes and wanting to do all this directing in the
Speaker 2: movie and she has no directing experience and.
Speaker 4: If you look at say, it's pretty bad. It's bad,
Speaker 4: like it made no sense. Blake Lively directed Taylor Swift's
Speaker 4: new video for the song I bet you think about me, okay,
Speaker 4: And this was a couple of years ago, but I
Speaker 4: read recently that like when she first put you know,
Speaker 4: when she like put it out to the producers or
Speaker 4: whatever whoever editing, they were like, uh, this is not good.
Speaker 1: M M.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I don't know if that's true or not, but it's
Speaker 3: just something I happened to that.
Speaker 2: I read that too, And but the whole like, and
Speaker 2: we talked about this last time, but you know, it
Speaker 2: just bears repeating that. Part of the thing was that,
Speaker 2: you know, she was trying to take over the movie
Speaker 2: and she wanted to get him out off of the movie,
Speaker 2: which she did do. She managed to get him removed,
Speaker 2: but she used the fact she claimed sexual harassment. And
Speaker 2: this is the whole crux of this. She claims sexual
Speaker 2: harassment because she wanted the credit and she didn't want
Speaker 2: the backlash, and so now she has to prove that
Speaker 2: there's sexual harassment, and he's coming out and going, well,
Speaker 2: try to prove it then, right, because you got nothing
Speaker 2: but complaints about me for the wrong reasons.
Speaker 3: We will continue staying on.
Speaker 4: This will leave you on a positive note, aside from
Speaker 4: being excited about Blake Lively's movie at some point. Another
Speaker 4: blonde that is wonderful. Another blonde actress that could like
Speaker 4: also play the same parts in some ways that I
Speaker 4: think I have a crush on is Kristin Stewart. I
Speaker 4: have revisited some old interviews with her and one what
Speaker 4: a delight. And I'm not even joking. I'm like, the
Speaker 4: reason I thought of it is I was reading a
Speaker 4: Blake story and she came up as like another story
Speaker 4: I could read, you know, And it was just her
Speaker 4: wearing a cute dress. But she's adorable. So in life,
Speaker 4: don't be a Blake Lively, be a Christian Stewart.
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, Bye bye,
