interesting to get in a conversation

about the Unholy Alliance these days of

politics Fame celebrity and uh how how

challenging it must be for some

celebrities that they can't even talk

about

what's happening to the medically or

psychiatrically or if it runs counter to

a narrative it seems to me that's what's

holding people back from being more

forthcoming the way they had always been

we have an All-Star lineup coming up we

have uh tomorrow uh Kelly Victory comes

in here our shows does on Wednesday with

Dr Pierre Corey we have a vaccine

injured uh friend of mine coming in to

as I was saying AJ pins has been on

Stern uh tons of times he also was a

columnist for the uh hang on I'm gonna

find it it was not the New York Post it

was uh New York daily news I think it

was

um and yes there it is Daily News New

York uh and he did a lot of uh sort of

uh discovering you know sort of uh

undercover work let's say he um as I

mentioned earlier also has two podcasts

Fame as a and politics is a

and uh please welcome AJ benza

hello doc how are you

I'm good good to see you my friend so I

almost don't know where to start tell us

about the podcast first and what you're

talking about there

well back in 2017 I had such a long

career as a gossip columnist in New York

that um I wanted a place to tell my

stories because uh when 2017 hit and we

had Trump running and Harvey Weinstein

and me too I said to my partner who

produces my show do you have any idea

how many stories I can tell about these

guys I knew Trump for 30 years I know

one's doing book deals movie deals you

know I got to be let loose and he said

if you can do it we'll do it that was

six years ago I'm still telling stories

yeah

yeah let loose it's pretty funny a lot

of behind the scene stuff I know you

know I was a journalist but to be fair

when you get to the position I got in at

The Daily News you almost become a Ray

Donovan type uh columnist if you know

what I mean these celebrities need help

they're in tight spots and uh back in

the 90s they would come to columnist

like myself for that kind of help it's a

different game now

like back in the 90s was it was it a was

it kind of a quid pro quo game back and

you that you'd help them out and then

they'd give you some Scoops later on

yeah yeah that that happened quite a bit

that the gossip game is a lot of quid

pro quo and a lot of people don't

realize that uh actors recording artists

and such managers the people they pay to

protect them end up calling columnists

if they need a mention of another client

in the column you know the columns are

not what they used to be 20 30 years ago

gossip columns were everything now

you've got so many spaces to see news on

celebrities but back then if you wanted

your celeb or your restaurant to get a

big opening or your Club

a movie They Came to the colonists and

we helped I mean we put we helped

Donald Trump get elected president after

you know making him a star on on his TV

show I mean journalists like me in the

80s and 90s are responsible for Trump's

rise

I I bet am I mad I imagine

that uh back his original project that

Hyatt down was a Hyatt I guess down by

Grand Central he needed a ton of press

to get that thing going he must have

leaned on you guys hard back then

Donald Trump worked surprised to say a

joke that Donald Trump didn't check his

pulse in the morning to see if he was

alive he would check the papers because

he called every columnist and he he was

such a workaholic with the columnist

that he gave them items and then he'd

repay him by mentioning his development

deal or what supermodel he was with it

just depended on what he wanted

you know but I mean we all know he's

lost we all know

but by the way I mean I I'd write the

article then he'd have one of his

assistants cut out my article he'd

Circle his name autograph it and say

nice job and he would circle the word

billionaire and send it back to me and

not just me

what is that guys he's like a he's like

a cartoon character before we go on and

remind everyone we we are on Twitter

spaces although Caleb I don't see you

there you're normally my co-host and I

have not seen you pop up yet I'm joining

right now of course working through Tech

issues okay

okay and I'm watching the restream chat

and of course the rumble rant I'm over

there with you guys Susan is also by the

way okay you need to unmute spaces too

oh my God are you kidding me hold on

okay hold on yes I can do that thank you

sorry spaces I let the mute button on

that was ridiculous all right well we're

back in shape again well they have the

option of watching it live on Twitter

until you figure it out yes how's that

going anyway okay the the Twitter uh

feed is that it's the same as everything

else we're doing

yes it is we have Twitter we have twitch

we have YouTube we have Rumble and we

have some Russian organization that I

have no idea where it is what is that

Caleb knows

we have a few International platforms

that we also uh broadcast to as well

just to kind of reach the people where

they are

very interesting but before people ask

well Russia Russia does not pay us to

broadcast in Russia so it's just we go

all are welcome all are welcome if you

remember back in the early days of the

Ukrainian War I interviewed a Russian

woman member of Julia Julia and uh she

was outraged by it so not everyone in

Russia is an evil villain you know what

I mean it's like it's just like here our

government does stuff we don't like as

well okay

enough of that so I I wanted to dig in a

little bit on

what what celebrities are up against

these days in terms of towing a

political narrative at all times it

seemed to me I saw something yeah I saw

something about Jamie Foxx that you had

mentioned and we could get into that a

few minutes but and I don't know what

happened to Jamie Foxx but I thought to

myself wow he can't even tell us what

happened lest somebody should think it's

something that's not uh right with a

narrative I thought the same thing of

course of Demar Hamlin when he collapsed

you couldn't you couldn't speculate of

anything else because if you did you

were you were vilified what's what does

that go what is what are they doing what

is that how do they deal with that are

they all in on it do they care what do

they think

well I think most people in Hollywood

are are on the left anyhow so yeah they

they towed that line they don't uh

they don't give any indication about

vaccinations they stay away from that

there's a there's a Code of Silence in

Hollywood right now and it's been that

way for the last couple of years where

they're just not going to talk about the

vaccination they're staying awake from

that hot button topic but we all know

any one of us who've done some shows in

the last three years or appeared on

camera

covert tests were mandatory you couldn't

work without them you couldn't go on a

set without them there might have been a

couple of instances where they allowed

it but by and large you know they were

they were ridiculous they were

ridiculous they're they were absurd they

spent millions of dollars totally

wastefully it was absurd all in the name

of being perfectly uh aligned with this

I don't know what they were doing this

uh zero coveted policy I guess uh you

know no one's safe unless everybody's

safe is straight virus somebody no one's

safe and uh you know it it roared

through you said you've had it four

times

you know I had it well I credit you for

saving my life the first time the first

time I had it I um I called you I felt

bad for three days or so and you told me

to get an oximeter for my finger check

my oxygen level my blood and you said it

should be in the high 90s and mine was

like 89. and he said go to the ER right

and I did I spent eight days in ICU the

covet turned to pneumonia it was scary

and painful and that's the only reason

why I got the vax because I had

pneumonia seven years ago out of nowhere

I never smoked in my life but I got

pneumonia and I thought well I don't

want to get this a third time because

it's painful pneumonia sucks eight days

in ICU is not fun uh so I got the vacs

and I got one booster I got the J and J

and I lost a few friends

um the last couple of years who got the

injection

um one of my best friends died last

Saturday

paratrooper X Special Forces 51 years

old

in best shape of his life I mean live

life you have no idea just goes to sleep

doesn't wake up black guy oh my God I

think geez I think that this ties into

the Jamie Foxx Theory I worked my butt

off to get a story about why what

happened to Jamie Foxx because it was

all baloney but they were reporting he's

playing pickleball he's responding on

Instagram no he's not that people do

that for you it's all lies I had

somebody in the room who let me know

that Jamie had a blood clot in his brain

after he got the shot he did not want

the shot but the movie he was on he was

pressured to get it this movie is doing

with Cameron Diaz and I'm thinking is

that why he blew up on the set a week

before this medical emergency happened

is that why he fired three or four

people because he just had had it with

these mandates I don't know but what I

found out from the man in the room was

that the blood clot in the brain caused

him at that point to be partially

paralyzed and blind

because if you read into what they were

saying early on he's communicating with

us that doesn't mean talking that could

be anything it could be you know writing

science you know I know those little

code words and then when you tell me

your father's playing pickleball

give me a break you know I don't know

there's a great shroud of secrecy around

Jamie Foxx he's probably the most

multi-talented person we have in

Hollywood

um but even TMZ is not reporting is that

I know TMZ has got sources in hospitals

who give them information whether it's

legal or not but they're not they're

they're not Mike Tyson got close a week

after I broke my story on my show Mike

Tyson said that Jamie had a blood clot

in his brain

no one's gone that far to say that yet

uh I think Mike did and he probably

gotta follow him AJ let me let me let me

sort of step back a little bit from what

you're saying and just say look uh blood

in the brain is a cerebral bleed it's

not a stroke a stroke is a blood clot in

an artery to the brain that cuts off the

blood supply of the brain and the brain

dies so we're talking about and it's

been widely known that he had a stroke

right I mean they've said stroke many

times yeah so it's it's to say it's a

blood clot in the brain is sort of it's

a stroke it's a blood clot in an artery

that cuts off the supply that part of

the brain is dead and it has very

serious consequences it depends on where

which artery and what the anatomy of

that artery is to what parts of the

brain whatnot but it is not something

that yeah I mean let's put it this way

is he still in the hospital is that is

that what I'm supposed to believe and

playing pickleball is that

the daughters are doing the speaking for

him his oldest daughter Corinne is doing

the speaking she said he's been out of

the hospital for weeks but that's not

true

he's at a very good Hospital in Chicago

who specializes in this kind of rehab

um and every friend who comes out

whether it's Kevin Hart or Nick Cannon

or whoever all says pray for Jamie he's

got to get through this nobody comes out

with great news it's always somber

so he's going to build let's talk about

let's talk about let's try to I always

have to dismantle the medical reporting

because it is so freaking inaccurate and

pathetic so let's talk about pray for

Jamie what are we praying for what

exactly do people expect if there's a

stroke that brain is gone now if he

wants to walk again I think that's

that's a thing to pray for that he could

it depends what again what the

distribution of this thing is but play

the piano again and that kind of thing I

mean oh boy you know I mean that's it

has to be a very small stroke and

hopefully that's the case I mean

hopefully it is uh and and then I heard

rumor that he may have had hypertension

was he did he have high blood pressure

also high blood pressure he's been on

those meds and you know my buddy who

died uh was also a black man and I feel

like that well you would know this don't

they have more of a uh oh don't don't

black folks have more of an issue with

hypertension and high blood pressure yes

yes and it's a little often more

difficult to treat especially the men

it's a little kind of a different

quality to it yeah it's a little bit of

a different thing and if they don't stay

on it and get you know take the medicine

diligently they have strokes I mean

that's just what happened so so then

then my brain goes well it's also

possibly a post-covered phenomenon right

I mean as you found out covet is

horrible I don't know if you had long

covet or not but let's talk about your

condition before we go all the way down

the Jamie Foxx uh sort of rabbit hole so

you got in spite of a vaccine and a

booster and natural immunity you got it

again

well I got it first without the without

the shot it was bad eight days ICU then

I got it three more times

with the booster in the shot and um

first time was five days of refugee and

you know night sweats to the point where

I have to change my shirt my bed was

soaking wet I never saw that in my life

and sore throat yeah and the last two

were like three days of you know a lot

you know just just general malaise and

sore throat and I didn't even bother to

shut the last time if I was positive

because I'm like I've been through this

I know what this is I'll be okay stayed

in my room you know got better in three

days and that was it

it is you know there there is a sort of

a new emphasis in fact I was thinking I

should probably take a test because I'm

feeling very weird today and I just

thought no maybe who knows and that's

something but yeah who knows but but

that's an important thing for people to

remember we have like 10 covers I know

so you can get stashed away I know good

I'll take it okay let's take one on the

area

let's do it right here on the air

yeah seriously let's do it here so

ridiculous Susan we have a break in like

10 minutes

we have a break in like 10 minutes when

did you start feeling it I felt just

very weird yesterday I thought I over

trained and today I'm sometimes I get

like this after I've really over exerted

myself but I'm uncannily weird today

tired but it takes three days before the

test

yeah that's true that's true and then

you'll have a lot of security and go out

maybe

the main thing is I know for a fact

since I got that shot I don't feel the

same as my my old body is not it's not

the same I'm just different I wake up

different I walk different some things

you think that again this is the hard

this is the hard part and no one's doing

the study to parse these things out do

you think that is the covid it's the

vaccine the covet plus the vaccine the J

and J versus the booster the booster

versus you've had you've had all these

things and we don't know which is the

one that's making you sort of different

no we'll never find out I just know I

feel different and you you wake up

nowadays we wake up and the littlest

tickling our throat we think covert

right away and we start batting down the

hatches you know what do I have to take

I'm you know there's nothing really we

can do well it's very scary yeah um I I

I yeah it's not scary anymore because it

really even that new

xbb.1.16 is really a mild mild thing and

and you kind of I kind of you know when

whenever I get these Omicron type

variants I'm like good now I've got

immunity for a while this is good I'm

gonna be okay now for a period of time

but yeah but we don't know what the

long-term effects of this thing is we

don't know long-term effects of the

vaccines per se even though people claim

we do I took the J and J like you and I

had a terrible reaction to them yeah I

know what made you take the what made

you take the booster

you know what my sister and her husband

are in their late 70s I was staying with

them in Chicago a lot there's two little

granddaughters there three and two and I

travel a lot fair enough

for them

um and I that's what I did but I regret

it but then again doc you know if I've

had covered three or four times the last

couple were easy to get over one time my

girlfriend caught it I was with her and

the next I didn't get it at all you know

it's just such a strange book that

that's because you have all this natural

immuno now and it may be the case I mean

it's it's here's the thing about these

vaccines it's not all one way or all the

other I mean it's reason like I

vaccinated all of my elderly patients

they have been very much benefited by it

I've seen almost no side effects in that

population I I but the question is the

risk reward in your case you have little

kids you have to hold these people

around makes perfect sense to me that

you want to do what you can even if the

coverage is only three months you know

what I mean even if it is a three or six

months of coverage okay and maybe maybe

it'll also reduce the severity of

illness when when you do get it which is

inevitable yeah and so okay I can sign

off on that but we don't know at what

cost we just don't know and so no now

going back to Jamie

um and and for that matter Demar Hamlin

are the two of them I mean that was also

shrouded in secrecy how does p how do

people get to the truth and what do they

imagine they're doing by not telling the

truth

well you mean look as a as a journalist

and I'm not a practicing journalist as

much as the people who write nowadays

but

they are they are towing a line

constantly with this coveted stuff no

one finds out the truth no one's allowed

to talk about it you how many deaths do

we read about of people in their 20s

these people these athletes are

racehorses on the pitch in the field on

a court dropping fainting at the White

House four days ago no one talks about

it can we find that if she was

vaccinated is this myocarditis what's

going on

no way you're not allowed to talk about

it

the medical literature has been very

silent on this too although it's just

starting to break loose a little bit one

particular Journal called Animals of

Maternal Medicine is starting to publish

stuff and ask questions and uh nobody

reacted to it I noticed and they were

asking things they published things that

could not have been published six months

before about early treatment how

fluvoxamine and budesonide works about

how we should be doing observational

studies on the vaccine by doing more

just match controls going forward for a

few months and we're doing nothing we're

just doing nothing it's so weird so uh

anyway uh hopefully that will be the ice

will start to melt and we'll get some of

that some of that going and there are

people and that are you know Max you

know absolute uh categorical vaccine

Advocates uh God bless them uh me just

for right now what I said to you

restream is going crazy saying oh yeah

you're robbed sure you're still perform

Pharma no I'm trying to have a

reasonable approach to the to this thing

we've been through so absolutely so all

right so here we are so so your these

people cannot report is is there any

sort of movement amongst journalists or

or gossip columnists even or people that

report celebrity press to try to do

something or the the did you by

speculating cause anybody else to jump

in and speculate no that's it's really

scary and um I didn't speculate I I had

a source in the room

and who gave me the information it was a

very good source of mine it was a

Hollywood Guy and um no no one's

followed up on it the closest was Mike

Tyson saying Jamie had a uh blood clot

or a stroke that's the closest thing

that's been written to what I said and

that's really odd but I'm not in

newsrooms right now so I don't know what

the Mandate is in newsrooms but I know

that if you keep reading about the

deaths of young athletes and you don't

mention the possibility of a bad

situation I don't know what you're doing

as a journalist

or a post covet or both or something I'm

looking at a physician I know in my

audience here Siobhan if you can come up

I'm going to invite you to speak again

because I'm wondering uh if you also

have some thoughts about uh this he's an

infectious disease doctor that comes in

here once in a while for me

but he's not coming up today somebody on

Rumble said they had a dental implant

fail after covid a dental implant fail

yeah I mean oh I got a story too you can

associate you can associate a single

event with anything Downstream you also

had a hemorrhoid you know I mean it's

like yeah I know what that means no

wonder like let me let me let me throw

this in a minute

I've never said this before but um my

girlfriend and I I'm gonna be 61 in a

week in a few days

uh she's 45. I got her pregnant

and she lost it uh to a miscarriage and

when she went to her doctor he said is

your boyfriend or yourself vaccinated

she said he is and this kind of college

has said we've seen

200 increase in miscarriages in women

who are with men with the vaccination

so Naomi wolf is reporting stuff like

this when you know you for having said

that will now be vilified me for

allowing you to say it on this show will

be available I don't know if it's true

or not I don't know go ahead and come up

to unmute your mic

here here comes a here we are hey do you

hear what I was talking about

oh oh my goodness this is

you know why because it's coming through

on my phone instead of through the

system so thank you for coming up

[Music]

you like that that's cool yeah it's like

the old days I like that yeah

so I listen Trent I'm gonna I'm gonna

let you uh talk here on my mic and you

so what we were talking about was

whether or not Jamie had a stroke and

what the implications were and how the

Press was so true hi it's killed I

actually I actually I think we a lot of

people really want to hear what he has

to say so why don't we do a quick break

while you guys fix the tech issue and

get that plugged in so everyone can hear

what he says okay Susan's doing it right

now isn't doing it right now

all right we will uh continue to work on

a little technical problem here and back

with AJ benza after this

all right a lot of you have been asking

for more information about how to

counter the adverse effects of the spike

protein from covet infections and the

coveted vaccine the spike protein is not

your friend let's just say that so I'm

glad we have the wellness company Spike

support formula as a sponsor especially

since renowned internists and

cardiologist Dr Peter McCullough was

also a chief scientific officer of the

wellness company is one of its Champions

there's some very intriguing research

around nattokinase which might be a way

to take on the spike protein listen to

this so start if you would with talking

about nairokinase how how you got to

that and where you see its application

so with the viral infection or the

vaccines the spike protein stays within

the body and it's found in the heart the

brain the vital organs and is causing

problems the Japanese have been using

this for heart and vascular disease now

for 20 years it's safe it is a form of a

mild blood thinner that it dissolves the

spike protein nearly completely Spike

with Twitter space I'm sorry to say uh

it doesn't look like we're yeah I mean

you and Caleb can work on it if you want

to while I'm uh

yeah talking Caleb what do you think is

that it

Caleb

you have to plug your phone in true it

has to be going through your phone

because you're logged in to the internet

and so it is it is

it is yeah it's not working but we can't

switch over to his other phone the one

that

you can't in the middle of the show but

I also now I hear you so I think it

might be fine

oh now it's working again all right

that's weird let's get uh I want to get

Siobhan in here again you want to unmute

yourself and let's see if I can talk to

you there you are can I hear you let's

try it one more time

he hears um how about now do you hear us

no Susan it's coming he's coming through

the phone

I'm going through the phone through the

system he's coming out the phone

you want to hook up another microphone

to the phone

we can do that in my bag all right hold

on a second everybody we're still

screwing around here AJ

for sure

yeah let's just continue where we were

so uh you know so yeah Naomi wolf

observed some of those same things that

that you saw uh with miscarriages and

whether or not there's something about

passing project I I don't know it

doesn't make sense to me but uh you know

I'm open to things I I I took a quote

today I think it's going to become my uh

my personal Mantra and I want to tell

you uh here it is it's a from a guy

he's a psychoanalyst who wrote about

totalitarian States from many years ago

and he said our human strength lies in

our diversity and Independence of

thought in our acceptance of

non-conformity in our willingness to

discuss to and to evaluate various

conflicting points of view in denying

the diversities of life and the

complexity and individuality of the

human mind in preaching rigid dogmas and

self-righteousness we begin gradually to

adopt the totalitarian attitude we

deplore

your thoughts

yeah well that's exactly what's

happening I I mean look I'm not going to

sit up here and jump up and down and say

I'm Trump 100 but I'm certainly not more

than three percent Biden I think what's

happened since he got in the white house

has been atrocious everything's fallen

to pieces people no longer get to say

what they want to say

I've never seen a country like this doc

I mean I've never seen it like this no I

know I used to work in newsrooms I know

you never talked about political

alliances this is insane the trans

movement you know Pride onesies for

transsexual kids at Kohl's and Target

what is going on

well again I whatever Target wants to do

and if it helps people who are

transgender great but why is it have to

be a Battleground

why would you give a three-month-old a

onesie that says trans lives matter I

mean if that's the parent that's not the

kid

if the kid grows up to be trans I

understand you know live your life but

don't cram it into our children

and I I don't know I I think most I

don't know my instinct as a kid was and

I'm wondering where this has gone but if

if I had been dressed like that by my

mother I would have been Furious

of course of course if I hit it I mean

we had the wrong cauterize We Were Young

we got we got bullied in school uh I

feel for people who go through this and

I Know It exists I know it's not a

made-up thing but it just can't come

toward kids you can't come to centralize

children that's all they're doing

well that's certainly the the issue that

people are worrying about but back to I

I wanted to go more into the the

celebrity though world and and politics

have they you know

it's so opposite of say the days of

George Carlin and the way celebrities

used to think and I would argue

anybody would see on Johnny Carson oh I

know um Frank Sinatra I remember seeing

him talk about things and it was just so

there was sort of a pushback against any

Authority The Authority was like suspect

now Authority is you know not just

Authority but the FBI the CIA the CDC

these are all thus saith the Lord and

can't be questioned that's so contrary

to everything that was going on in in

our day in in one of the things it

seemed like to me back back then we sort

of elevated the

kind of the

the atom the kind of the narcissist

Outcast you know the the kid that 14

with uh was depressed and had hair over

his face and learned to play the guitar

so he could meet girls essentially and

we elevated those guys to high status

High status and there was there were

problems with that too humbly I would

say as well but I'm wondering what it is

we're doing today by

by elevating people that are intolerant

and uh who I it I don't know if you saw

it today but it's kind of funny

um they're an AOC parody page has popped

up that sort of seems to be landing and

AOC is going crazy and I think it's

hysterical I think she ought to just

turn it and just lean into it everyone

she could you know gain a lot of respect

for that but it doesn't seem that she is

I don't know what to do they don't know

what to do about it they're very they're

very very uh

hypersensitive right now everything is

hypersensitive and I just when I do my

shows I'm the opposite I'm a lot like

Adam carollo you know I just say what I

want to say I I refuse to bend to these

people I just refuse I know what the

world was like I saw a commercial there

there on YouTube

uh that ran I guess in this probably the

early 80s

everybody all these big movie stars

singing God Bless America Lucille Ball

Don Rickles I mean I mean a lineup of

big stars John Wayne singing God Bless

America as a commercial on TV we're so

far from that

oh yeah of course but and to be fair I

mean those people had some issues I mean

there was some stuff going on with them

and we're re-examining all that now

that's great

who doesn't have issues I mean probably

you you're like the one guy that

probably is never done anything wrong

but I can tell you this guy

I think you gotta always you have to

always watch yourself yeah it's really

and I always thought that's what sort of

was being asked of us like just pay

attention which I'm delighted to do I'm

happy to do that if I'm not getting

something right I'm happy to do it but

to be told consistently that you're bad

your kids are bad or that you're part of

some cabal that's hurting other people

that that is hard to stay with you

eventually sort of want to push back on

that and I'm afraid that pushback could

be kind of intense

the Bible say this the one thing that's

a positive I was a literally coach for

my son for eight years and um there were

years where I had a kid of my team who

was named Claudio and then two years

later he's Claudia

and I would say to my son wait didn't we

have him on the team two years ago in

basketball yeah and now he's a girl and

my son would say yeah Dad it's no big

deal

like the younger generation has no issue

with this which is a beautiful thing

right but yes but there's such a hasm

between them and us like I want that kid

to be happy and whatever skin he's in

but I gotta stop sometimes on the wall

That's shocking to me it's shocking well

and I don't know like

it is the same thing as you as your

parents taking issue with Jerry Garcia

or something you know that your parents

like what do they see in that guy so

much hair what's going on there yeah

that's the Beatles argument yeah of

course it is but um this seems to be uh

going at the root or the heart of our

country more than other skirmishes we

had in the past with with our

generational you know differences this

seems to be a much bigger stronger

bitter fight it's every day and I think

all these companies are just trying it's

exhausting you're just trying to get

social points they're trying to be get

their social register up there they know

it's not good business

I mean I don't understand don't their

shareholders have something to say

it's not the business to do a Bud Light

game Maybelline and coals and Target yet

they do it

they're learning and maybe they're

experimenting I don't know but you would

think they could predict something like

that so we

um rebooted our Twitter spaces I'm sorry

everybody who was uh in that last room

I'm gonna get see if I can get Siobhan

back up in here if he's yeah the new

connector you probably gave up I don't

blame him but uh so so I wanna I wanna

Circle back though to celebrity and to

to actors is is there

absolute either silence or categorical

compliance is that just because they

want the jobs they just want to they

want to work or is it because

they're they're you know they they I

some that really believe some of the

stuff I'm sure but but the the the the

degree like just Jamie Foxx again is a

great example is I mean you know his

whatever happened to him has none of the

racism nothing to do with transgender

nothing to do with anything he had a

medical problem uh with maybe the you

know the complication of something

common that we're all connected to

either covert or vaccine or both we'd

like to know uh it'd be sort of the the

the healthy it would be the

uh serve from a service standpoint it

would be nice to know what's being

thought of there so other people might

have to not

have the same problem

but no no I I just think they're not no

I think the the vast majority of

Hollywood the bosses and the big actors

Etc and on down they are so left-leaning

that they just believe whatever comes

out of the CDC Dr fauci NIH they just go

with that now privately they may not

think that way and I think Jamie Foxx

having I know Jamie Foxx for 20 years I

know the kind of guy he is if he doesn't

want some he comes down pretty hard he's

not one to mess around with great guy

but he's got a line and I think that um

I think I think I don't know I don't

think he wanted that booster but I think

they made it because don't forget the um

the uh the shocks the vaccinations were

called off in mid-may for Hollywood

Jamie's situation happened in mid-april

so we're talking a month before

Hollywood called off the the the whole

thing and the president of sag Franz

Russia was always about the actors

having their own belief system they

should do what they want

yes she was you know she tried her

hardest but so isn't that isn't that a

little though that's kind of interesting

because Fran it seemed to be had been

much more

moderate for lack of a better way of

describing more reasonable

right and she sort of kind of spoke up

about it a little bit but there's

nothing she could do because the this

infrastructure was so powerful they

couldn't really do anything about it

until finally it became absurd it just

was absolutely

I think I think they shut her down I

don't think they want her to keep

talking that way she had a few days

where she sounded off and then it just

went away

um you know look plenty of us

have followed the science nobody more

than you and have seen all these

ridiculous absurd things become untrue

and falsehoods

and um why the powers that be in

Hollywood still decide to act or lean in

line with this baloney is beyond me how

it's not even a question it's just yeah

so so here's something a little more

provocative I noticed um

I I thought the little mermaid looks

like a great movie I have no no thoughts

other than I hope I hope they do it

looks beautiful I hope I have no

thoughts

um but today The Hollywood Reporter

reported that in China it bombed and

that the Chinese people specifically

were taking issue with the casting And

the reporter as opposed to saying uh

we're learning something about

that culture they said it's because it

was reviewed negatively by people who

took issue with it and I thought oh my

God you've got to be kidding me well

they're telling it's a lie it's a lie

Asian people as a New Yorker and even a

guy who's lived in La for 20 years

Asians and blacks don't get along I know

you see them in commercials all the time

eating the chilies but they don't get

along

I I can't I can't let that sit because

it's such a you know such a sweeping

statement age I don't like it but but

let's say that you've seen trouble

they don't get along but look at the LA

riots where the Koreans had rifles well

then we should be working on that

whether we should figure out what as

opposed to saying it's the people that

reported the news the the review of the

movies let's find out what's going on

and kind of work on that as opposed to

you know pretending it's not happening

or whatever I am concerning they also

make high quality original accessories

for your iPhone that don't work either

yeah made in China

made in China can cause a bit of trouble

for us today

I make sweeping statements I know and

you're very pointed and exact I'm I'm

the opposite of you but I tend to have a

generalized uh feeling about culture

I've been a New Yorker and an L.A guy I

know that Latin Asians don't get along

it's just whether you want to believe

that I really don't they don't they

black steals

it just happens and they have fights

there's shootouts there's nice attacks

every week every week

that's so let's go back to celebrity

all right all right back to celebrity

what what is on your mind these days

what kinds of things do you see that are

sort of making you crazy in terms of

things that people lines that people are

Towing things that people are doing uh

are there issues that you talk about on

your pod that they're sort of grinding

your gears so to speak yeah yeah lately

a lot of it has been about the

transgender movement and what's

happening and my my show is not only

about Holly but I tend to go into social

issues as well but

Hollywood especially they lead the

league in in following these well issues

what have you and you know

I could just tell when people in

Hollywood and boy we've talked about

this the mental health issues with

Britney Spears and different people like

that

um is atrocious no one's helping the

girl I mean we're watching Judy Garland

die in front of us again and no one's

helping her this will be the biggest

story in 50 years

you know well and you know do you know

why that is you're you're not a I mean

so she got very very sick when she was a

lot younger so so ill psychiatrically

that she was put in a hold against her

will and then ultimately that hold they

brought a judge into her hospital room

and had a hearing and the doctor made

his or her kid I think I believe it was

a female physician that why Brittany

needed 14 days because she was too

wildly psychotic so 14 days in the

hospital at the end of that she was put

on a conservatorship which is impossible

to get so that means that something

really bad was happening okay but

for the years following that she did

great she was able to function she had a

lot of treatment she worked she I just

she she had relationships she did very

very well and then then again got kind

of paranoid about it wanted to get out

of it

I fully support that because my goodness

AJ look out your window in Los Angeles

you'll see people that need

conservatorships way more than Britney

Spears and no way they can get it no way

uh so now she's out and and it's getting

kind of it's almost I I find it sort of

um

sad is sort of too powerful a word

uh because I I believe I believe

somebody is helping her and I believe

that's her husband I believe that guy is

really he may not be yeah I think so

because somebody is holding her together

and watching her and hanging on to her

and I mean she's doing some funny stuff

and fun of Instagram which looks

peculiar as though her whole identity is

out there in the world rather than in

here

I think it's psychotic which he does on

Instagram the dress rolling around and

sand naked the holding her boobs

together in the shower she's got she's

got two young Sons they're mortified man

they're moving to Hawaii with their dad

they're mortified she hasn't talked to

them in a year no I don't think what

she's doing is fun at all I think it's

sad and depressing and this is going to

be when she finally unfortunately God

forbid kills herself

we have to blame a lot of it has to be

on our fans who this new culture of live

your life girl yes Queen you're the best

the opposite effect on people she

doesn't need that she shouldn't hear

that

she needs care

that's right and so I I while I agree

with you she's not exceptional

her as what is for what is going on in

California today which is no one right

is allowed to get care no one is no

matter how sick they get unless they say

I'm gonna kill somebody and here's how

or I'm gonna kill myself and here's how

if five minutes later they say just

kidding then you can't touch them that's

California and so she's not unique in

that regard and and to that point

something's keeping her kind of glued

together you know I I think this

something positive going on there I'm

not I'm not sure but it's kind of it's

just interesting that

go ahead I know I just know that Sam

what bothers me about Sam is that I know

that he was on James uh Jamie Spears

payroll early on to make sure that

Britney was you know doing what she

needed to do and he was getting paid

every day A nice amount of money from

Brittany's dad

that's a weird thing to enter into a

relationship with or this marriage which

I don't believe is even a marriage I

didn't see any certificate I don't buy

it I think it was a big party I never

see with friends I never see with

anybody I rarely see her with him I

think this guy's gonna walk away in the

next year or two and I think that he's

going to get a nice little pay out of

five to ten million dollars and the next

Scott it comes to Britney's life hold

your breath

she's got nobody well we're her friends

show me a video of five friends hanging

out of your house

it's just so sad

is there anyone around here she's very

isolated

is there anyone around who's not being

paid I I doubt it he's asked Caleb asked

if there's anyone around her is not

being paid I I doubt it but yeah I I

believe I'll stand by my opinion for the

moment until until I'm proven otherwise

all right because he's hanging in

through a lot he looks like he cares he

you know he's the one she goes out with

and hangs with and does stuff with and

if it weren't for him she would be

completely alone it really would be sad

who knows what would happen there I I'm

curious the one thing I I'm just curious

what he'd you never see him on these

Instagrams I'm just curious if he's

going hey honey come on or if he just

goes all right that's not whatever let

it just do that just don't lose it in

public

I think he's going oh come on I think

he's had it I think he's had it but he's

getting uh I don't want to say the wrong

thing but he's got a nice piece of ass

in bed you know she's crazy she's wild

he's he's with the young pop still not

young anymore but at Mid midlife pop

star yeah he's got a good life

Millionaire's got a great life he's now

acting in movies

he's uh he's like a Mickey heart attack

you know and Jayne Mansfield he'll bust

out of this marriage it'll be over one

day and he'll get his money to go away

I get what you're saying I I did you

what did you think of uh blanket on his

name now that uh has been married to

Barbra Streisand forever

his Roland

James Brolin did you have a similar

feeling about him when he got involved

involved with what

with Barbra Streisand

see I'm wondering what your bias is my

bias is very positive I see the best in

people but I'm wondering what you

thought with that one

no I don't think Barbra Streisand is a a

nut case or bipolar I think that he's a

handsome guy and it you know I I have no

problem with their relationship

alternative

I I that one because back when that

happened many many years ago I thought

what's what's he doing and then it ended

up working out it ended up working out

and I thought oh I was I guess wrong but

I'm wondering

you know I'm talking about Stedman and

Oprah that's the better one to talk

about Stedman and Oprah I mean that's

the one that people are still always

going to mention like what is the deal

with Steadman I really don't care I

don't I don't think he's gay I think we

just have a different kind of

relationship Oprah's a different kind of

person she's been Ultra busy for 30

years

they have a different thing about them I

don't think there's anything wrong with

that marriages are all different they

come in different shapes and sizes but

Sam's marriage to Brittany I think um

startled out in the wrong way and now I

think he's gonna pocket some money and

go away and and then you're right then

we're going to see a complete breakdown

and who who then takes care of it don't

forget I've also broke a lot of stories

about her business manager Lou uh Lou

Taylor

you keep relying that name because she

also does a lot of work with the

Kardashians

um there's a lot of talk about her and

her husband owning churches that they

siphon so much money from Brittany tens

of millions of dollars over the years

yeah oh boy they don't really talk too

much but she's lurking there in the

background Lou Taylor

oh my that's now when you get your

stories I I had an experience with TMZ

once that sort of

um put in into a focus how ubiquitous

they and their sources are I was uh

doing an episode of The Insider remember

when uh Entertainment Tonight had The

Insider and uh that at that point they

were attacking uh Gary Coleman for being

a wife abuser and all this stuff I said

no the guy's not there's something wrong

something's not something's wrong with

him well it turned out kids had you know

renal failures since he was like a kid a

child yeah and it missed his dialysis

for months he was in acidosis he had

calcium was Zero it was ridiculous he

was he so he came in the set they

started yelling at him he got upset and

had a seizure and he had a seizure in

the seat of The Insider and I jumped in

and grabbed him and took him uh into a

sort of a bench on the side of the uh of

the room and

he was fine but before the paramedics

got there and before his seizure it

stopped everybody around me's pager went

off and looked they set out people said

out loud we hear there's been a c Gary

Coleman's had a seizure on the center of

The Insider TMZ wants comment

can you believe that

yeah

and Harvey's done a great job he's done

a great job I mean he's got people

everywhere they get paid and

I'm not in favor of them giving

information about people in hospitals

that's uh that's a rule you shouldn't

break but you know there's always

somebody who wants to talk through and

if you get enough sources in your life

you'll find the person

well and and AJ I think you know the

people that aren't going to talk are the

nurses and doctors and administrators

but there's somebody there just you know

doesn't doesn't have the same ethical

obligations and happens to see something

you know they get it it's funny people

will go I'm Gonna Leave This Job in a

month I don't care I don't care if I can

get 500 bucks from TMZ or from a tabloid

I'm gonna give some information out I

mean people a lot of people

oh boy is that true so I I got a quote

on a question on uh Twitter is this from

the Twitter spaces

uh Robin is asking are you aware of the

cia's influence in Hollywood she is uh

I got a long quote here are you aware of

what's going on that way

not particularly I can say I know that a

deep root cause about that I'm not sure

I just you know there are a lot of

people who uh have opinions about

Hollywood and there are people who think

that they eat babies and they wanted uh

what's it called adrenal Chrome I don't

go with those theories but I know having

been at the top of that game and then

been in Hollywood I do know that you can

get anything done in Hollywood and I

wouldn't be surprised if the CIA is

involved in some way with certain people

at all I mean they're Private Eyes there

are lawyers that are involved with

things I mean what's his name Anthony

pelicano there are so many people who

Traverse through Hollywood who just put

their money Footprints through it yeah I

wouldn't doubt if the CIA was ever

called in to do something at all I mean

as it is now we send all our scripts to

China so they can read them first and

make sure we're not going to make fun of

their country we're selling out all over

the place

and by the same token we have the sort

of mainstream press so-called seems to

be not interested in speaking truth to

power that seems to be the opposite of

what they're interested in these days

um I I wonder where that came from it's

almost the same people that used to be

so interested in in fact the same people

that hated the CIA hated the FBI were

you know had no particular interest in

the CDC and were interested in holding

the leader's feet to the fire now we're

doing that exact opposite and it's hard

for me to understand

it's not journalism anymore I I went

into it in the early 80s because I

wanted to shine a light in the dark

places and find out who was corrupting

people and what organizations I just

wanted to find all of it out

and um when you get involved deep in

Hollywood and you meet the weinsteins

and unless the moonves is and all these

guys you start to get a picture of how

it all works and it's an ugly it's an

ugly place

where a lot of people make a lot of

money and go through a lot of bad things

to make that money and I think they're

just so turned on by the almighty dollar

you know they got to heat their pools

within their pools they've got to get

their three Range Rovers running they I

mean it's it's a very wild lifestyle

once you're at that 10 15 20 million

hundred million dollar Mark everybody's

doing something Shady everybody

do you just think that that that that

that the politics has become the modern

version of what that was

it seems like that's not quite I don't

know maybe that hasn't cleaned up at all

I don't know but it feels like that in

terms of adulteration I mean that's what

RFK Jr is talking about he's saying that

we've been captured by money and

influences all the way up and down the

government

organization at every stage I told him

that I thought I had Gelman Amnesia

which is that you you learn about one

thing and then you figure it doesn't

apply to everything else but he said no

I said you look you taught me about the

capture of pharmaceuticals and the

Regulatory Agencies and the FDA and

whatnot that's too cozy I don't like

that he goes same thing everywhere

everywhere every agency capture and and

and you're sort of starting to hear

stories about it here and there in the

press and yet no journalistic follow-on

that I can see and and this is also

mysterious to me and it are we going to

get in trouble for bringing it up it

feels like that kind of country now no

no you've got to bring it up you gotta

hold these people accountable you know

uh like for instance I'll just I'll

break the Jamie Fox story which I know

is true and I'll say to my audience how

can no other writer

Glam off that story and investigate

further how can no I know having done

this for 30 years there are sources

everywhere people know this story

they're just not going to report it out

of fear for the people that Pfizer or

wherever the hell the vaccination was

maybe their company's doing business

with them I don't know but it's all from

the top down like the old saying the

fish stinks from the head down

everything's everything's com politics

is combined with Hollywood uh our belief

system the way culture is the woke

movement it's all a mess and if you can

find the truth once in a while out of

all that stuff God bless you right that

that is what I'm interested in is the

truth so so back to Jamie he's one of my

very very favorite performers I mean uh

me too me too he really is just so

brilliant I mean it's just ridiculous

how talented that is so what is what do

you you know you've said there's been a

stroke there's been brain injury what is

the nature of the disability now do you

know

the last I heard was partial paralysis

and some blindness I don't know uh you

know the person I talk to is not in the

room every day he went that one time I

was grateful to get that information I

don't know what's happening since then

but all we can surmise is the longer he

stays in that facility

the bigger the problem was and let's be

honest

he's not being uh you know he's not

going to host new Shazam show all that's

being done behind the scenes but

Hollywood is a a special place where

they don't they will never let you know

they're very garlic about their big

stars they don't want you to know that

anything is fatal

because God forbid Jamie don't get to

work again you've got to always keep

them propped up and he's got very big

people behind him he's not going to ever

cop to exactly what went wrong maybe a

year from now if he pulls through knock

what he'll tell the whole story if

that's where it's going to come from he

will pull through I I promise you he

will pull through I guarantee it I think

so I guarantee it I guarantee you

um yeah but what were those videos I saw

with him going hey thanks for worrying

about me and I appreciate the prayers

and stuff was that was that a you know

some sort of insane

I

I didn't see a video

I saw an Instagram video but if he did

do that we all know my God nowadays they

can make anybody look like anybody and

say anything

it's a it's a it's a scary time a i a i

Jamie Foxx and so yeah so it just says

Still Still hospitalized when you go to

YouTube

um and so when you when you so a normal

person after an event like that would

stay maybe a week in the hospital maybe

uh and then you'd go to two weeks of

rehab and then you'd go uh you know do

outpatient rehab after that the the the

inpatient continued structured inpatient

you know and by the way people see the

word rehab and they assume that's

chemical dependency treatment or

psychiatric treatment it is not it is

physical repab stroke rehab which is

what the term we have originally applied

to and really just strictly does apply

to uh and he you know I I'm I'm guessing

he wants to be walking that's what I'm

guessing is sort of in the books here

and and depending on how large if it was

something of What's called the middle

cerebral artery

you know hopefully it didn't go on the

right side of the body because then his

speech will be out too

that's kind of what happened to

fetterman so yeah and that would be very

very rough so what do you know about

what what do you know about Celine Dion

she canceled her World Tour she has this

stiff man syndrome whatever it might be

stiff syndrome I think she's had it for

a very long time I think she just kept

it on the wraps there's a similar thing

happening with Shania Twain who looks

unrecognizable I mean looks gone lost a

ton of weight no one knows that that's

Chennai anymore there's a lot of

celebrities now who are embracing

illnesses no I'm not I know Celine has

an illness but there are also others who

just want to hop on the bandwagon of I

have an illness too I have a mental

illness I have Lyme disease I have

bipolar I've never seen so many people

throw themselves on the fire and talk

about their illnesses than I've ever in

my life seen what's that about well

simple I I it's it's the fact that we've

sort of done that it's that world you

know where our our medical selves and

our biological beings are sort of we've

been exposing that for a long time

that's why I find it odd when people

hide what's going on or pretend that

they are pulling the wool over eyes when

they give us an incomplete story I for

instance have immense immense respect

for Christina Applegate oh my God what

she's dealing with oh for Christ's sake

that poor woman I mean I I just she is

the kindest nicest most talented and I

was watching her on uh you're dead to me

and I thought oh what they're doing to

her the steroids oh my God and it's just

and now she can't work Michael she looks

pretty good it was great she was listen

no I'm not saying she doesn't look good

I'm saying I can see like I used to when

I was 20.

Doc how did Selma Blair get on Dancing

With the Stars what they what do they

bump into her with her a mess that was

amazing

right so some Ms no that's right there's

different qualities to Ms where it's

relapsing remitting it's Progressive

it's rapidly Progressive Christina seems

to have a rapidly Progressive variant

which is just

we'll show you guys and then and then

Michael J fox I mean he's been by the

way so look at you're talking about

talking about medical reality

I actually had a problem with the way he

used to talk about it because it was

clear to me he was in moderate amounts

of denial about his condition and now

he's talking about it much more

forthcomingly and much more honestly

it's it's more of a thing now and then

look think about all these people so so

how about uh what Bruce Willis Bruce

Willis I mean

sad these neurologic diseases are

terrible and and how much of this is

post covet or post facts we have no idea

and we should be discussing it should be

a Hot Topic

sound stages for last two three years

and but you know uh listening devices in

his ear cute cards up anything to make

money overseas with his face on the

cover of a movie what a I mean look

the guy was making money

but but what a shame but that's

different than say what they did to

Marilyn Monroe who they would literally

shoot her with Demerol put her in Some

Like It Hot apparently they had a doctor

with it with a syringe going 24 7. and

her lines were in the drawers and on the

walls when she would uh be you know

moving around the rooms and it was like

this is

that that's disgusting that's the

history of this stuff and that's what

they have to kind of you know sort of

make right by being much more open about

these things more realistic and

interestingly addiction is the one place

we do talk about it more openly which is

kind of odd that's where we and it used

to be so shameful you know

yeah so anyway no well I I uh I I think

there's I I suspect that some of this

you tell me if this is true AJ that's

some of the reason that we're seeing so

much medical illness in so many

performers and celebrities is that

because of

nutrition and dental work and

injectables and and Botox people are

working into a much later age like

really working actively as they had when

they were in their 40s well into their

60s now and when you get people into

that 60 70 80-year Jade group goes

down man goes down and I have a

feeling that may be why is going

down also I don't know if you heard

Michael J fox also said he thinks that

his his version of uh Parkinson's may

have had something to do with some drugs

he was doing which was my that was my

call from the beginning

I never pictured Michael J fox to be

that much of a drug I think he like had

some he's not he's not he he's not that

he's not he would he was messing around

got

it's

that but I mean nowadays yeah I mean I

don't he was never looked upon as a

druggie when he worked but he's not yeah

you could be right I don't know where

this stuff today AJ today non-addict

that are messing around die of fentanyl

overdose so this stuff can happen just

messing around

yeah yeah you can't you can't get a pill

from anybody at a party or anywhere no

more it's over oh no you can't very

dangerous so I'm looking at our uh our

uh Twitter spaces here and I my

physician friend yeah you better use it

now that I got it working okay my

physician friend dropped off he didn't

have the patience for us uh but anyone

else that wants to raise their hand you

just yeah oh I wanted to put this quote

up on screen because you guys had

mentioned Fran Drescher earlier and I

had I had no idea that she had been

fighting the vaccine mandates as

president uh oh yeah I had no idea like

that whole story was suppressed she's a

very major personality never heard any

of this at all in the news so AJ you

tell me if I'm right you tell me if I'm

right when she was running for president

of sag I thought oh boy I'm not sure if

it's going to go okay she took the reins

of that thing and has been a brilliant

leader her communication is second to

none she has been she's been a fantastic

president and she took on these idiots

and their excesses and finally I believe

that's why it came it would have gone on

another year or two if she weren't there

at the helm yeah you're exactly right he

said they got a fire brand in her I

don't think they realized that she was

that kind of woman I mean but I I always

knew she's that kind of woman but God

bless her for doing what she's doing and

and standing up to this nonsense but

again you know Caleb's right where are

the other periodicals taking this story

and blowing it up where are the Pulitzer

Prize winners during me too where's

Ronan Farrow the greatest reporter of

all time where'd they go

bunch of nonsense yeah what happened to

him what's going on where's he been

greatest reporter of all oh my God

is investigating all of this for a big

report

I want you to find out for us I'm going

to rely on you AJ to figure that out

tell us yeah tell me where he is because

he should be if he's not quietly

no here's the thing about being a

journalist here's the thing about being

a journalist we both were brought up by

the same guy we had the same Rabbi if

you will in journalism in New York got

named Richard Esposito a great guy great

journalist and um

thing about Ronin is during his time as

a journalist and he's great and he knows

his stuff but smart kid Hollywood

Hollywood royalty gay dating Obama

speech writer every female who was

harassed sexually felt very comfortable

talking to him so all he did was sit

back and get phone calls that's not real

hard work to do but God bless him

you sound you sound a little jealous you

sound a little jealous there maybe oh no

no no I report all that stuff too but I

always said Drew at the end of the day

if you could print a list of credits at

the end of your gossip column of all the

people who gave you tips and stories to

help you along the way it'd be about 30

names a day so it's not only the

reporter it's the people you know that

help you and give you the story

interesting there's nothing better than

waking up in someone as a story for you

Twitter spaces Caleb put up the cartoon

so people can see you push the

microphone the lower left hand corner

and then once I call you up uh then you

also have to unmute yourself once you

get to the podium and in doing so you

are streaming out of multiple platforms

we're going to Russia it turns out I'm

just finding out uh Rumble Twitter

twitch yeah YouTube everywhere uh this

is a Nick I've got a vagina wanted it

their way oh they would block us yeah

like crappy parts

uh we we did try to broadcast in China

and they shut down all of Dr Drew

profiles within 24 hours

in Bali

because one time

well they don't like the sexual stuff

too yes weird okay

there you go Nick what's going on it's

against the law hey there so I I called

out um Robert Kennedy and the uh

comments here I was hoping maybe he

would chime in on this conversation go

ahead I'd love to hear his perspective

you know agree because I think I suspect

that I have you know I know for sure I

have at least one

but possibly three uh injured family

members yeah it's it's not uncommon my

friend I like like I said we're going to

be speaking on Thursday Caleb is that

right to uh yogendra who was one of the

early researchers in Long covet and a

friend of mine who's a I don't know if

he's going to be um Anonymous or not but

he's a very prominent professional and

he has had his knees out from under him

for almost a year he's not been able to

have been difficult to function for most

of the year that's terrible and uh

people need to hear what these things

are and it his case was definitely not

coveted because he took the vaccine and

then whammy we'll hear the whole story

on Thursday is anything else there Nick

oh no that that was all all right thank

you for bringing RFK in here perhaps

it'll be nice to have him I don't see

him

uh he might be busy Susan that's true he

could be a little bit busy

let me uh bring uh Josh up he's probably

busy uh hi John what's going on hey man

uh not much I wanted to follow up with

the RFK uh thing because at the end of

the conversation you had with him he was

talking about personal change uh like

personal transformation and when you

think of like Britney Spears and all of

the stuff that's going on mental and

physical health I want to look at look

at it through sort of an optimistic lens

which is there could be a lot of change

happening not in all negative I mean

from my point of view Britney Spears has

changed a lot she seems in some way more

human like all of us when before she was

not so you know even in that case I

think there are ways to get better and

I wanted to know I mean you obviously

deal with addictions and stuff that's a

transformation I feel like there could

be physical and mental Transformations

that are going on

among all of us yes and we need to keep

those seeds of change going and it can

be very tough yeah

um Josh I applaud you I wish I could

dance like her though but I think what

Josh is pointing at and I'm gonna let AJ

comment but but she is less of a she

doesn't have um a career and she's not

in Las Vegas she's just a girl in front

of the camera on Instagram on a tick

tock and stuff and she and she doesn't

have the psychotic features right now

really they're not active anyway and uh

it's just so yeah I agree with Josh and

in terms of change is always can be

changed but things can get really shitty

before they do and we have to watch that

AJ what do you say

I disagree with Josh I've never seen

Brittany look more insane

uh the the three day old makeup The

Natty hair extensions the clothes from

2003 the spinning constantly this is uh

such a shout out for help I've never

seen anything like it

and I think she's stuck let me just say

who she is in 2005.

yeah you know yeah that's sad I agree I

agree with that uh but but in terms of

shouting for help

it doesn't really work like that in fact

you know she has gone public

with uh she went to an excellent program

and spent like four months there and got

top-notch care and now look back on that

and says they were Nazis they had me you

know Shackled they were terrible they

abused me it's like I get it's one of

the good things about you know working

around high quality professionals you

you know certain things just didn't

happen and you do know that people's

brains can distort things really easily

particularly with these kinds of

illnesses so the in terms of her wanting

help I don't think so I don't think she

wants help and and that will be the

problem and that's the problem with

mental illness generally that's the

problem that you lose insight into what

the illness is doing to you that's a

very common feature of serious mental

illness

and so Anna signosia we call that what

would you do what would you do if you

were the only person

visiting her on the under your care what

would you tell what would you do

with Brittany geez I would have to build

a team around her somehow uh and I don't

know how you'd get her to comply with

that but you it you can't do this with

one person you sort of need around her a

bunch of people that know how to manage

this and you know most people don't

recognize the symptoms that are kind of

serious coming on they just think oh

Britney she's so cute no no no no no

this is the beginning of serious stuff

we have to adjust the medicines we have

to you know I would be all over her

medicines I would give her cognitive

behavioral therapy to help her identify

her symptoms and understand what they

are which I'm sure she's had and then I

would build some sort of

social something around her so she could

do things again she needs to get out in

the world somehow but it has to be done

in a very very structured way and you

know as you you know she gets hassled

whenever she goes out and that might

trigger some stuff too so I maybe it's

as simple as you know having a an

outdoor activity or a sport or a park or

something I don't know something but it

it would take a lot of work and and

persistence and the problem with her

condition is she'll reject it she'll

rejecting this so if you don't have

somebody mandating it it won't last it

won't last think look at Michael Jackson

Michael Jackson he was you know getting

his opiates from the dermatologist uh

several doctors went in and said dude

this is going to kill you this year

Deepak Chopra went in there was just it

was he was a close friend of Michael

Jackson dismissed never allowed to get

near him again why because you say

something they don't like and they have

the power to do that that's the that's

one of the big risks of that level of of

celebrity and uh and money

things about it yeah of course

sad to watch you know I was know her

sister too

Jamie Lynn Spears is one of the

loveliest persons I know I like her

husband even just a little bit better

Jamie sorry her husband's a great guy

her kids are great she I mean she's I'm

facetious of course but but these are

these are salt of the earth wonderful

people they are only wishing for for uh

Britney's best I for please those of you

that want to get engaged in What's

called the splitting which is part of

the illness please don't that's the

illness family members care about her

they're trying to do their best they

want the best for her believe me believe

me okay well uh AJ we've been a wild

ride here we've gone all over the place

I'm looking at the Twitter spaces if

anybody else want to ask any questions I

think we've I've abused your time and uh

I appreciate you man it's good to see

you and spend a little time with you

um and we'll have to get together face

to face one of these days and you're

gonna find out for me what did I want

you to find out what what happened to

Ronan uh

um pharaoh

or what's he working on

I call him Ronin Sinatra but uh for

obvious reasons but I'll find out yeah

he's a great writer but uh you know

being gone since 2017. we need him back

AJ Just Dropped a Bomb on the way out

the door I don't know if you caught it

but uh

who wrote it Pharaoh is

he was a Vanity Fair writer that really

sort of created the metoo movement he

certainly created for Weinstein's

problems I would say right yeah he he

reported on all that and uh and there's

you know there's debate about uh

paternity and AJ just gave his opinion

and you might have missed that well let

it let it sit you know I just I've been

in Nancy's Sinatra's house and I've seen

pictures of running all over the house

you don't generally do that if Ronan

Farrow is another man's son but if it's

your dad's son I would imagine pictures

would be around the house that's all

I'll say about that

we'll let that bomb sit whatever you're

going to get from Ronan I think you made

it more complicated now so okay

he knows he knows all right he knows how

I feel about AJ give give him give him

where to go where's the patreon this is

really fun it is fun it's interesting

yeah tell them where to go

uh go to patreon.com famous a to

go behind my patreon wall or I do one

thinking about

like we're starting to we're exposing

ourselves and we have to we have to

think of cute ways to look good but

imagine you were 16 you've never had a

real job yeah and that's all you're

doing all day and there's a team of

people coaching you up on it like if

that's your only way of identifying

yourself or being yeah but it's just

funny because like okay I gotta do my

hair and makeup and now I'm gonna dress

up in a cute outfit and I'm gonna get in

front of the camera and see if I can say

something witty that's gonna draw eyes

to me and make me feel good about my and

that's what Tick Tock and Instagram and

all these things are is is you know us

being the actresses or the singers or

the performers and

um I obviously can't dance like that I'd

have a better Instagram well nobody is I

just do photos like here's a photo and
