I can't believe that we are five months into this thing, this pandemic, this horrific COVID-19 world that we're living in. and we still are now concerned about Dr. Pepper disappearing from the shelves. Apparently, Dr. Pepper is having a tough time. They're working on it according to their tweet. So breathe easy. Dry your eyes. Their tweet said having troubles finding your favorite Dr. Pepper product.

We're doing everything we can to get it back into your hands. That means working with our distribution partners to keep shelves stock nation. and wide while ensuring the safety of our employees. We appreciate your patience and encourage you to contact your local retailer directly for the most up-to-date availability of Dr. Pepper products. Now, we know that we've had an aluminum can issue since the start of this thing. I know, it's a pandemic. I got it.

Apparently, we didn't realize that since we were, were going to close down restaurants and close down all the places where people drink their sodas, people were going to have to drink sodas at home. So all the beer and soda companies started running out of cans. It also meant the first few months, and I think most states have started to allow you to bring back your cans and bottles, the states that have deposit fees in the beginning said you couldn't bring them back. So the recycling companies that were picking those cans and bottles up weren't picking them up because there was nothing to pick up.

So that made the shortage. And then they had to try to find other places to get the aluminum and the cans and the bottles. It was, you know, it's an amazing thing, the cycle of things. And so now we're five months in. and we're struggling at Dr. Pepper. If you can't find your Dr. Pepper, dry your eyes. They're working on it. Now, I know it was reported a little while ago that Coca-Cola was having that problem.

I know beer companies were having that problem. I can honestly say that I have not had an issue since the beginning of the pandemic on the Coca-Cola zeros. So, or the Coca-Cola. Maybe some of the other, you know, minor. flavors, they adjusted their output, but for regular Coca-Cola and regular Coke Zero, I never saw a problem. I still had those items in my home. Perhaps Dr. Pepper should cut back on the Dr. Pepper and cream soda and whatever other flavors they make and just put that regular

Dr. Pepper on the shelves. But what do I know? Oh, I know. It's chewing the fat. Welcome to Fat Pile Friday. We've got stories, and I've just got, you know, headlines that we're going to get to to try to get through some of the things that we missed

and some of the newer stories. So you can, you know, end your week, for those of you listening live on the 14th of August, 2020, with, you know, information. and things that you, you know, may or may not need to know, but I absolutely believe that you need to know it. Did you watch yesterday where Steve-O had duct-taped himself to a billboard in Los Angeles? The reason I asked it, because the video was live,

and I ended up, of course, watching it. I know that Sky Fox in L.A. with my man Stu Mundell was there, you know, hovering over the beach. billboard and hovering over the corner and showing stevo a duct tape to the billboard promoting his new stevo.com comedy special and for those of you you know don't remember stevo you know from the jackass series and movies and films anyway he didn't really tape himself to the billboard i mean it hit a little ledge that he was standing on and he was actually uh you know had a little hook that had him hooked up on the billboard and then he had tape in front of the billboard and then he had

tape in front of him, which he ended up taking off because he said it was bugging him. He was in his tidy whitties. And then, you know, the fire department showed up, the police showed up because there was all kinds of people and traffic was starting to slow down. Well, traffic, then they showed up and locked everything down. They shut the close the road. They put crime tape up around in the parking lot of a CVS that the billboard was, you know, attached to.

The billboard is, you know, in the CVS parking lot. and, you know, made the people back up. It was just weird. I didn't understand. Like, he Instagrammed. I'm attached to a billboard right now. I want to emphasize that a team of real professionals rigged everything safely. There's zero chance of me falling.

And it's important to me that we not waste any valuable city resources on this. I'm happy just to hang out and really want the world to know about this project that I work so hard on. It's called gnarly. And if you're over 18, check. it out at stevo.com. Thanks. Well, okay. Now you got to believe that he had a prior, you know, everyone had prior knowledge to this going on. And yet the police shows up. And then the fire department showed up. And they shut down the road and they brought the ladder truck in. And then they pulled the ladder up to stevo and they unhooked him. And then they gave

him a helmet and they had to put out a mask. And they brought him down. And then they gave him the once over medically and he did not go to the hospital. I don't know. I don't understand why they spent all this time and money on police and fire to get him down off of that. He was fine. It was a bit. Really strange.

I haven't read why they ended up getting him down. Maybe it was all part of the bit and it was already paid for to have it. done so that the police showed up and the fire showed up so that it would bring press coverage to the event, which now that I'm saying it out loud, that's probably what it was. I know Stu Mondell was great in Sky Fox covering it on their, on Fox in L.A., on their Facebook page. It was, you know, it was fun to listen to, and he was great. but I just couldn't figure out why it was such a, why the police and fire department were called on an event that was probably sanctioned.

Now, though, it makes sense if they had already been paid, like the bill that you would get if they showed up. We're just going to pay it ahead of time so that they do show up, and that way the press will cover it even more. Duh. Okay. Good job, Steve-o. We might as well get to some of the headlines under the heading, of space. There's plenty of stories under the heading of

space. A Russian satellite weapon shows the danger of hazy rules in space. Yeah. Radio burst Magnitar from the Milky Way. Now apparently this is the

closest that a radio burst has come from. It came within our own Milky Way and we don't know where they come from. We know that these FRBs, these fast radio bursts, show up.

Most of them show up from hundreds of millions of light years away. This one 30,000 years ago, and it came from a star or a dead star, on the other side of the Milky Way. So it's, you know, it's in our rain. That's right around the corner. Now, they last, you know, half a second. And it sets off all kinds of astronomical or I'm sorry,

astronomer, astronomy, astronomy, astronomer, it sends off alarms at all the observatories around the world. So they're still, they're puzzled. They don't know where they come from. They think. that it might be black holes colliding. Write your own jokes. It could be alien starships.

They don't know. I love how we just keep getting a little recommended. It could be alien starships. Really? So it's possible that that happens, right? Well, we don't know. We don't know. All right.

We have a headline that says black holes fail to do its job. Oh. we know what black holes are supposed to do apparently this black hole isn't creating anything it's just there which means that stars are creating faster in this particular in this black hole

it's just really weird but they're saying that the one it reminds me of an old expression one of the astronomers when the cat's away, the mice will play. Oh, that's funny. Here, the cat, or the black hole is quiet,

and the mice or stars are very busy. Right? That was from Julie Helvicek, Lorando, of the University of Montreal. Canada, she led the study. So apparently 300 times faster than the rate at which our galaxy, the Milky Way is forming stars. Okay. All right.

Good deal. Now we say we have a dwarf planet that could possibly, you know, has water, could possibly house humans. No problem. It's right there around the corner between Mars and Jupiter. And it shows it has a liquid reservoir. underneath the surface that's

at least regional and maybe global. I mean, that's good if we're looking for a place to go. Now, the information came from the 2018 flyby of series, C-E-R-E-S,

NASA's Dawn Space probe, and that spacecraft revealed bright patches on part of the object's surface indicating the presence of salt brine that emerged within the planet and eventually evaporated. Okay, NASA's planetary scientist, Julie Castillo, said water is considered one of the key ingredients for life as we know it.

Oh, thank you. Appreciate it. They also have spied a milky way that is at the very beginning, or at least when they spied it. It was 10% of its current age. And they thought it was just this chaotic explosion kind of thing. And apparently it looks calm and pretty secure. Okay. You know, it's tough being 12 billion or so light years away. So, you know, we've got that going for us. We also know that Elon. is doing well. He just got the deal with NASA.

And he is beating the crap out of, you know, you know that Jeff is messed up. Jeff Bezos. You know what I'm talking about. Jeff. Yeah. He just got the deal,

rewarded the contract from the Space Force, Elon, for at least one. confirmed launch in 2022 and an undetermined number of missions between 2022 and 2026. I wonder what happened to Blue Origin and his deal for military space. I don't know. Maybe Jeff will, you know, he's probably mad, blames it on Trump. We'll see.

And I also saw that just an incredible number. I think we talked about it at one point, incredible number of satellites. that are being let go and flying around the earth. Here's a new, I mean, get this, okay? So thousands of satellites are going to be launched into space. I mean, Elon said that a few years ago, right? And they just keep deploying them. I mean, he just deployed another, I don't know, another 60.

Okay. but the Federal Communications Commission approved the launch of 12,000 satellites into orbit and submitted paperwork for another 30,000 at the end of last year. Okay, SpaceX right now has 350 Starlink satellites orbiting Earth. it plans to launch a couple dozen more. Batches which contains 60. That's where I got the 60 from. So each batch that they're sending up has 60 satellites in each batch.

It's just incredible. I mean, a new job, a new million-dollar idea for you is we've got to find a way. And maybe Bezos needs to work on this. Instead of being pissed about the government contract for the launches, maybe he needs to worry about somebody's going to have. to go and pick up the trash. The dead satellites, somebody's going to have to go take care of those.

There's too many of those flying around. And there's too much space junk up there. We've got to take care of it. Got to. All right. And we've got some headlines here that are under the entertainment heading. I just highlighted a row of them

and we'll just go down them real quick. Matthew McConaughey, Grills Anthony Fauci on COVID on Instagram Live. I'm sure that was riveting. Florida State University football players accused school of lying about their COVID test results. Okay. NFL player cut after dressing up female and attempting to sneak her into the team hotel. Yeah, that's going on with the NBA too, right?

That's what we did that story yesterday. They need to have their mistresses. and girlfriends, show up, and they're trying to sneak them in. So, I mean, that just ruins the whole bubble effect. It's just incredible. Madden 21 drops Washington Redskins name and logo. Thank you. It's about freaking time.

I'm actually surprised that didn't happen a while ago that the video game was just calling them Washington. But it didn't. Washington Redskins. Washington NFL team minority owner. pushing Dan Snyder to sell the team. I told you when they, it's Dan, it's never enough. And he fought for a long time, a long time to keep it.

Washington Redskins. In fact, it said that he would never change it. So it wouldn't surprise me that he would sell and just say, I've had enough. I can't do it anymore. But he loves the team. So we'll see. But you knew it's never. Enough. Never. Never, never, never. According to LA Times, Hollywood has a whiteness problem with hiring. That's good. Dally Parton, according to this story, defends BLM.

Says Little White Ases to stop complaining. That'd be interesting to read that. I'm just giving you the headlines. I'm not reading, getting into the stories because I have a few. feeling that maybe that might not be 100% true, but that's what the headline says. Is Broadway over? COVID could shudder the doors of New York's theaters. Well, it already has, right? I mean, I don't know that it's over, but I mean, they have, that is a, I just, that's a nightmare going on in New York, especially, I mean, Broadway restaurants and retail chains are closing its doors. People are moving out. And we're still there, the city, is being charged I forget how much money

it was. What was it? Two million a night to house 13,000 homeless people because they've moved them into the hotels and we've talked about that before on the show, but the city is going broke. People are leaving.

They're trying to raise taxes, but you can only raise taxes so much if nobody's there and nobody's paying. So it won't be long before they stop people from going. AMC apparently is opening up 100 theaters next week. Good. You know, you'll have two people in each theater,

so everybody can be socially distanced and wearing their mask, and it'll be good. And Leonardo DiCaprio, apparently his production company, strikes a deal with Sony. That's good because Leo, Leo needs to make some more money and produce some more films. I hope it's all about climate change. Man, do I hope that his deal is all about climate change?

If he is making movies that isn't about climate change, I'm going to be pissed. It makes me almost want to open the story to find out. But I bet you it is. I bet you it is. We're going to open the story and find out. So the company, Appian Way and Sony, are already developing two films.

And it says here, no additional details on projects are available. According to the studio CEO, his producing and acting instincts are both driven by service to the best material in the world, said, referring to Jennifer Davidson, Happy and Ways president of production, which is well under DiCaprio. He's produced the DeCaprio films, The Reverend Wolf of Wall Street, Aviator, Shutter

Island, but the company also reportedly signed a first look deal with Apple that would cover television productions. and documentary features. It just, I mean, for sure, those documentary features are going to be all on climate change. But it doesn't say, and maybe Leo at least is smart enough to know

that if he's going to make it a few, a few billion more dollars in the next few years, you might as well just have the company create, I don't know, great content and not all about climate change.

So we're all familiar. We're all familiar with the regular Netflix sounder, right? Yeah, that's the regular one. That's the one that, you know, you log into Netflix and. that's what we hear. Okay. So, they decided that that is great for people watching in their homes. But they really wanted to have something that was more for movies.

A symphonic version of the sound that set people up for a longer experience. So they went to Hans Zimmer. And if you're not familiar with Hans, look it up. I mean, the guy is a legend, and he's been behind some of the greatest soundtracks in the world. And they went to Hans and said, hey, Hans, we'll give you a couple of bucks. Why don't you come up with something for us? And he has. It's 15 seconds.

And it's the new, you know, Netflix movie mood sounder. and it's, I mean, if you haven't had a chance to see it, I'll tweet it out.

See, stop looking at me, okay?

Get off my back. But you can, you'll see the difference. And it's got the, you know, the multi-lights and the sound. But the sounders actually, Really kind of cool. And of course the ending has the, you know, classic Netflix end that it builds up to. But, uh,

so if you're getting ready to watch a Netflix film. So, there you have it. Netflix. I see where Apple and Fortnite are getting ready for an battle royale, an epic showdown. Fortnite is using a payment plan through Fortnite itself.

And Apple App Store is like, you're not supposed to do that. That's a violation of our App Store guidelines. And Fortnite is like, so we're doing our own in-app payment system. And whether you like it or not, we're going to bypass that 30% fee that you're charging us. Okay.

Good luck. I mean, it's going to be fun to watch. You know, that's one of the things that Cook was referring to in his testimony to Congress. When he talked about the different price scales for payments and fees at the app store and how they've cut it back and, you know, Fortnite has been battling with Apple for quite some time. Now, they already implemented the payment system in the Android version,

and Google took them off the Play Store. So Android users can still download Fortnite using Epic's own app launcher, which is distributed independently through any mobile web browser. and according to the plan, the open Android ecosystem lets developers distribute apps through multiple app stores, but Play Store, obviously,

we have consistent policies that are fair to developers and keep the store safe for users. While Fortnite remains available on Android, we can no longer make it available on Play because it violates our policies. However, we welcome the opportunity to continue our discussions with Epic

and bring Fortnite back to Google play. I bet you do. I bet you do. So this battle is going on. Fortnite wants the fight. And they want to prove that Google and Apple in particular are charging way too much money. So that fight is going to go on. It's going to be, it'll be fun to watch. It'll be fun to watch because they both right now can afford the battle. So, It should be fun to watch. Instagram facing some battles of its own. They are being sued or, you know,

it could face up to fines of $500 billion in a class action lawsuit. So if you win the case, you should be able to get like $10 or $11 whole dollars. A new lawsuit accuses Instagram of collecting people's biometric data without their consent. Okay. Under the law, Facebook could be faced to pay up to $5,000 per violation for as many as 100 million Instagram users,

totaling, you know, $500 billion. Of course, Facebook says it's a baseless lawsuit. So we'll see. They're also in trouble for censoring a British model who is black and plus sized. Oh my gosh. Could you pick anything worse to censor than a black plus sized model? Wow.

So she claims that she's posted these topless pictures and you look at them and they don't look bad. You know, she's in shorts. She doesn't have anything. else on and her arms are crossed in front of her. I've seen way worse. She's right. I've seen way worse from white, skinny

models on Instagram. Incredible that they're being censored like that. She claims that after the images of her posing with her arms covering, they were repeatedly removed. Wow. That's incredible if that's true, that they didn't let that live. And, you know, I believe her. I know that they have their community guidelines regarding nudity and content of sexual nature.

But, and they warned her that her page was at risk of being deleted altogether. Wow. I know of, I mean, I've seen them of these models that post with little, with almost nothing on, and little, you know, emoji stars on their breasts. They're not covered up with their arms like hers is. It's just amazing if that's true. And I believe her that it is. So we'll see.

Instagram will be battling that. Why are white plus-sized bodies seen as acceptable and accepted and black plus-sized bodies are not? That's a good question. Isn't that a good question? Yes, it is. is. Her name is

Naomi Nicholas Williams, NY-O-M-E- Nicholas Williams. The photographer, Alexandra Cameron, is the post that I see on her Instagram post here. But Naomi is saying her Instagram account,

curvy Naomi, C-U-R-V-Y-N-Y-O-M-E. It's a verified account from London. The posts are definitely no worse than what I have seen let fly on Instagram. So I'm not sure why they wouldn't let her post those. But if it's true that they were sensory, I'm sure it's just an algorithm problem, right? couldn't have anything other to do than just an algorithm problem.

Right? Right. Now, she's also wound up that people are using her likeness for free without giving her any money. I don't blame her there. I mean, she needs to be mad. Now, she said, she wrote a big post saying, I'm taking a picture of this with a phone case that has my likeness on it. but this woman

illustration who did it drew me without asking and was selling merchandise with my illustration on it and didn't send me any of the t-shirts, phone cases or posters made with me on them. This isn't the first time. Only after Dina was questioned about it was I compensated in only $75

and sent the items of my likeness on it and given the money from the bits the illustration of me sold. This is no way a drag on on Dina. No, of course not. I've spoken with her and I told her it was unacceptable and that I would like to continue to be compensated if any of the other bits with my illustration

continue to sell on the website. Yeah, no kidding. We all would like that. Well, there's no problem with that. I needed to do this post and let other... Now, this is the thing that gets me. Okay, so it's... Let other white illustrators, artists,

photographers, etc. that are so inspired by us black people to please ask before you draw us and then compensate us and if you're using an image someone else has captured of me, ask their permission also. I should not even have to say

to ask before using something of someone else's, but this is white privilege at its finest. Check your rass white privilege and hold yourself accountable. If this happens again, I won't be so cool about it. Oh, I know you sounded really cool there. I mean, I was good with you all the way up to the white privilege stuff. And I'm still with you all the way up to the white privilege stuff.

Then, not so much. And then there was, there's Instagram Reels, which we talked about, you know, Instagram, you know, getting Instagram reels out there, their answer to TikTok. And there was a big review in the New York Times and the review was not good, not good at all. Tick-Tock was still number one. It was easier to use and everything, but, you know, obviously we have the other issues with TikTok, which we've talked about on this podcast before. But as far as the usability of the product, TikTok wins. So whatever Instagram reels is supposed to be, it ain't. The story didn't say, if I remember right it didn't say whether the reviewers were getting paid by TikTok so that could always be an issue to New York Times China TikTok it's possible

and I was looking through emails chewing the fat at the blaze.com and of course I got an email I say of course because he's frequently contacts me and I appreciate the I appreciate the interaction. Our official ambassador of prisons, or two prisons, Jason, has emailed me saying that he was listening to the podcast. It would have been yesterday's podcast where we talked about touching money

and people being nervous about touching money because of germs and the rona. And he's saying that he would like to carry the burden of handling all that out-wanted money. He could, and he says we, but I don't know, you know, I'll give him a couple of bucks to get it started. Start a little garbage company. And pick up the dirty cash.

That's a good idea. I'm all for that. He also talks in his email. Did he talk on the email or did he print? He also mentions in his email that he got told at the Disney store. And we've talked about this on this program before that it's coming. And guess what? it's already here.

The Disney store told him that his gator style make liberals cry again face covering wasn't an approved face covering. So he's saying here, it's not

just cover up. It's a specific style of mask. And that's exactly what we said here on this program. was going to happen. You were going to be, it's not just the mask,

but the type of mask as well. Now, we've got plenty of people trying to develop masks with smiley faces, smudges, and giving you makeup that was mask friendly since masks is the new normal. But I went out and, And looked at people out and about wearing masks.

And I had a couple, I got to thinking about a couple of new conspiracy theories that I think we should get started. One, I read this somewhere and I don't remember where. So, that wasn't you, Jeff, that was somebody else. I'll give credit, all right. And I just don't know who to give credit to. But it's the idea that the masks are being pushed on us so that they can, China being they, but we're in on it too, can up their game on facial recognition. The hardest part of the facial recognition was the top half of your face.

So if you're wearing a mask, they're going to have to up the recognition factor of their facial recognition software. and this will do it. Okay. We've just created a faceless society in my eyes, and I don't like it. I don't like it one bit. The other conspiracy theory is, since we've been in the pandemic

and we're supposed to all get sick, I see where the chem trails dropping the poison on me has slowed down a little, pretty much altogether stopped. Huh. Huh. Coincidence?

Download and subscribe to more content at the blaze.com slash podcasts. So I see where Wendy's is bragging up their breakfast. Now they're claiming that breakfast now accounts for 8% of their total sales. And that we were really hoping for 10% of total sales. by the end of the year. So just because, you know, we got, we launched it and then we went into a lockdown and yet we're still getting 8% total sales. That's huge.

I mean, that's still pretty strong numbers for, uh, for Wendy's breakfast. You know, like the breakfast baconator and the frosty chino. I have not had a Wendy's breakfast yet. I was so disappointed in my life. I, I, I'm very. disappointed in my life. That has to change. I apologize. I really do.

Also, news that I thought was kind of strange. We are believing that chicken wings exported from Brazil to China tested positive for coronavirus. Huh.

So the chicken wings frozen from Brazil to China tested positive for coronavirus. Interesting, since I thought we were told that that couldn't really happen. So I guess it was discovered in Shenzhen

during a routine screening of imported meat and seafood carried out since June. Screenings were implemented after the coronavirus outbreak in Beijing. So it was linked to the seafood market. the coronavirus outbreak in Beijing was linked to the seafood market. The coronavirus outbreak in Wuhan

was linked to the food market. It's interesting that it was both outdoor markets. Anyway, the people who have come in contact with the chicken wings, along with the food products stored near the batch, were tested by Shenzhen's health authorities and were told that all the results

came back negative. Okay. Well, then we're good. Gosh darn it, we believe you. Now, as a side, there's a throwaway in this story. I also reported that coronavirus was found on packages of shrimp. Oh, so it's found on packages of something else as well. And that leads me back to the original frozen chicken wings.

Was it the wings that tested positive for coronavirus? or the packaging because it says in the story that it's the batch of frozen chicken wings and then the throwaway at the bottom is packages of shrimp it doesn't say the actual

shrimp so it's on packages and it's on the meat itself okay now the shrimp came from Ecuador the chicken wings came from Brazil

Huh. Okay. Both. I mean, they're right there. If you don't know your... Here's the globe. This is South America, and here's Brazil, huge country in South America. And Ecuador is right there.

Right there on the other side of the continent. Now, if I remember right, Brazil and Ecuador, don't touch. Their borders don't cross each other, but it's still on the same continent. Anyway, I just, I find that interesting. I find that interesting, don't you?

A lot of houses for sale around the country right now. Lori Loughlin, Lori, Lori, Lori! Pay for my tuition, Lori! In fact, this could almost be a Operation Varsity Blues segment. I should make it one. You know what? You know what? There is new news in the heading of Operation Varsity Blues.

I'm going to have that in my head. All weekend now. Cannon. Tonight's episode, Lori's new home. So her and hubby bought a new place in Hidden Hills, California, a gated community that's also home to many other celebrities. Now, remember they just sold their Bel Air home that they had listed for, I don't know, like 30, 40 million. And the Tinder co-founder gave them just under

19 million here get out of here here's 19 million but the new place 9.5 million okay no not a bad deal and it's a brand new house no one has lived in it before

11,748 square feet six bedrooms nine bathrooms it's a modern farmhouse style fashion pool in the night lit back lined with luxurious recliner sunbathing chairs.

The entire crib, which was built just last year, has never before been occupied, spans two stories and is said to be a fresh take on luxury country living. Oh. Okay. It's got a temperature controlled wine cellar, movie theater, chef's kitchen featuring up-to-day lavish appliances, white cabinetry, and marbled countertops. The home itself is located in a quiet cul-de-sac in a community that is also occupied by the Kardashians, Drake, Miley Cyrus, The Weekend. Oh, and John Stamos, another co-star. So, of Lories. So, I mean, they're doing okay.

It's, you know, it's a little bit of a downsized to the Bel Air place. I can't remember how big the Bel Air Place was. I'm sure it was probably about the same size as this place. It's just a different neighborhood, so, you know, the price drops a little bit. But they're still struggling, right? You can tell they're struggling. I know there's a couple of other house stories, but since we're inside the Operation Varsity Blues, we'll talk about the guy that the tipster, the whistleblower,

that the Los Angeles-based financier who tipped off investigators about the college admission scandal, which turned into Operation Varsity Blues. Cannon, tonight's episode. I mean, he wore a wire for the FBI. Mori Tobin, 57. He helped the federal authorities big time.

Now, he also had some fraud charges with stocks. And so that was, the college bribery case was great. And we really thank him for that. But he could have gone to jail for like eight years for the stock fraud that he was a part of. So apparently it says here, which I'm not quite sure. I don't know the whole story, but it says here that he sold stock to investors at inflated prices. Isn't that you buy things low and you sell high? Anyway, not stocks, Jeff.

Whatever the price is, that's what you pay. It's just like tickets and ticket value. I got it. So his help with them, the government said, boy, you know, we think that we think that it's fine. We don't want to, we don't want anything to go crazy. So the U.S. District judge sentenced him to a year and a day in prison. Wow. And that had more to do with the, uh, with the stock fraud case other than Operation Varsity Blues.

Katzenberg, Jeffrey Katzenberg, Mr. Quibi, sells his Beverly Hills mansion for $125 million. Huh. I wonder why he's selling his joint in Beverly Hills for $125 million. Could it be that he needs the cash? According to this story, no. He said he and his wife have been looking to downside. Uh-huh. And they received an offer they couldn't refuse.

Okay. They get to stay in the house for another six months. They plan to remain in the, you know, obviously they're not going to move into Lori, Lori, Lori's neighborhood. Please, I'm going to stay in Beverly Hills. This property, 26,000 square feet. Now, this publication reported that the buyer is a U.K. family. Huh, a UK family.

Who could that be? Now, you'd think it would be Megan and Harry, but 125 million. Woo, that's a, that's steep for even them. So Megan and Harry apparently bought a new place for only 14 million on Montecito estate. Okay. And, you know, Oprah lives out there. So Oprah probably got them a pretty good deal.

Well, I'll get to this 18,000 square. square foot home, five acres, nine bedrooms, 16 bath, 14 million. It's perfect for you two and the baby. Perfect. Oh, okay. No problem. It's got a beautiful pool. The lawns are beautiful. Lots of lots of what you want.

Privacy. It's behind multiple gates. It's super secure. And for 14 million, it damn well ought to be. Right? Right. because Montecito, I believe, is the home to Ellen, as well as Drew Barrymore, who is going to take Ellen's place.

Rob Lo, oh, I didn't know that. They lived in the same neck of the woods. That is interesting. I wonder if Ellen pissed off Drew Barrymore, and that's why Drew Barrymore is taken over as a talk show host. Mark my words, Drew's going to be the new star. Rob Lo, Dick Wolf, Patrick Stewart, Scooter Braun, I mean, who can, and Oprah all live out there.

so that's where Megan and Harry are moving to. According to this, I don't think they have the 125 unless they, you know, called up grandma and said, I know you're mad. I know you're mad. But, you know, we're not royals anymore, but grandma, you know I'm always a royal through and through,

even if she says no. And we're looking at this place in Beverly Hills. It's only 125 million. could just, you know, can we run over to Western Union and pick up, you know, because you send us a couple of bucks, the down payment isn't going to be $125 million. Look, I know you're worried about grandpa. He's really, you know, he's getting up there in age. And I just, you know, I want to keep this, you know, on the download.

Don't tell, don't tell dad, Prince Charles, or anything, just between, you and me. Okay, love you. See you later. Take care. So, I mean, they don't even have that money. So the 14 million does seem legitimate. But they better get to work. Somebody's got to make some cash to pay for all this.

Right? Right. You know I'm right. You may have heard of the sex cult nexium and the famous actress who went to prison for her involvement, Alison Mack. But she's never told her side of the story until now. People assume that I'm like this pervert. My name is Natalie Robamed.

And in my new podcast, I talked to Allison to try to understand how she went from TV actor to cult member. How do you feel about having been involved in bringing sexual trauma at other people? I don't even know how to answer that question. Alison After Nexium from CBC's Uncover is available now on Spotify.
