Starting point is 00:00:37 First off, Chrissy Teigen's a lunatic, and it's wild because it wasn't that long ago that she was considered one of these super sexy supermodel swimsuit issue chicks, you know? And then somewhere along the way, like most of these people, social media helped turn this woman into a straight-up psycho. I remember at one point, I want to say they had like a stillborn baby or something like that and like all the pictures were instantly on the internet after it happened and like she's crying and I'm like so that's your first thought your first thought is hey I just had this horrible situation in the hospital where this baby is now dead and my first thought is
Starting point is 00:01:13 hey let me throw this up on Facebook and Twitter so the whole world can see it these people are narcissists they are crazy people um unlikable people like she and john legend are just enormously unlikable John legend actually not unlikable he's fine but his wife is a totally unlikable lunatic. But now she's apologizing or not apologizing for using Ozimic, which is something I don't understand why you'd have to apologize for it. But let's play a couple commercials and get into it. The Hulu original series Murdoch Death and the Family dives into secrets, deception,
Starting point is 00:01:48 murder, and the fall of a powerful dynasty. Inspired by shocking actual events and drawing from the hit podcast, this series brings the drama to the screen like never before. Starring Academy Award winner Patricia Arquette and Jason Clark Watch the Hulu original series Murdoch Death in the Family Streaming October 15th on Disney Plus As you know, I take a weight loss drug And I've lost like 30 pounds since I started taking this thing
Starting point is 00:02:16 And I love like the idea that you're some sort of shithead If you take Ozempic or you take Manjaro or WeGovi or whatever to lose weight So Chrissy Tegan a month ago went public about her Ozempic use and she's making no apologies. Last month, she told the self-conscious podcast that she tried the weight loss drug because she had trouble losing pregnancy weight after her miscarriage in 2020. She said that she was feeling a, quote, deep depression of seeing this pregnant belly with no baby in it. Well, you don't have to get like, you don't have to try to get super spiritual about it or super deep about it.
Starting point is 00:02:50 You're a supermodel. You put on some weight because you were pregnant, and now you want to lose that weight. Like, I don't need the, well, I had a miscarriage. care. You don't need to justify it. I don't need any sort of justification for using Ozzympic or Manjaro. You feel like you're fat. You want to lose some fucking weight. You lose some weight. Like, why do you need to justify it? Why do you need a deep explanation? Why is there some deep explanation that is required for using Manjaro or any weight loss drug? You want to lose weight. It's like, hey, I didn't have enough energy today, so I drank coffee
Starting point is 00:03:23 and I'm making no apologize. I will not apologize for drinking coffee. Well, it's the same concept. You're trying to lose weight. You're looking for something to fucking jump started so you take some Ozzympic. The idea that people are apologizing for this is bullshit. And by the way, not everybody that takes Ozempic looks good.
Starting point is 00:03:41 Megan Trainor looks ridiculous. She's lost so much weight and looks frightening. There's a lot of people that have lost enough weight. Like Kelly Clarkson looks nice. She's lost weight. She's clearly on a weight loss drug. And she looks nice, but she hasn't. gotten to the point where she's skinny and gaunt and frightening.
Starting point is 00:03:57 Ozempic, uh, Lizzo, probably on Ozempic or something like that, she looks like she's melting. So if you saw Lizzo naked, she probably looks worse now than she did whenever she was super fat. But these people that apologize for it. Like, why would I apologize for that? Sorry that I didn't go to the gym for an hour a day to lose this weight. Sorry that I didn't, you know, hit the weights or run five miles a day? No, I took the easy. fucking way out and I'm fine with that. I'm quite content with my decision. Oh, you don't even know what the long-term health effects are of that? No, but in the same vein, you told me that I needed to lose weight or there would be long-term health effects. And then I lose weight and you're still
Starting point is 00:04:36 telling me that what I'm doing will give me long-term health effects. You know what? I don't give a shit. I'd like to lose weight and look a little bit better when I look at myself in the mirror. And I've lost like 30 pounds taking Manjaro so far in the last couple of months. First time I did it, I lost even more. I'm still fat. I'm still by the body mass index, still morbidly obese, because the body mass index is bullshit, as we've discussed many times. The body mass index is a farce. You mean to tell me that me and Lizzo are the same person? That's not possible.
Starting point is 00:05:06 You want to tell me that me and, like, John Candy are both in the same category? That's not fair to throw astray at John Candy. He just came to mind because I was thinking about his documentary that I haven't watched yet. But, like, look at somebody like fucking Lizzo at the height of her fat powers and then me, who are both. fat, but you mean to tell me that one of us, or that we're both, quote, unquote, morbidly obese and there isn't a varying level of morbidly obese? We're just in the morbidly obese category. There's not like a super duper morbidly obese. There's not morbidly obese plus, plus. There's just morbidly obese. Whatever. Fast forward to this week, Chrissy Teigen has no
Starting point is 00:05:45 qualms about using the GOP1 medication or going public about it. She tells people, since the beginning of social media, I've always wanted people to know that things weren't as fluffy and beautiful as they may seem. Yeah, no shit. You posted your fucking videos of your miscarriage, you weirdo. I knew it would really resonate with a lot of people and make them feel better about their families, themselves, and their own bodies. Who feels bad about taking Manjaro? Who would feel bad about losing weight with a supplement? Like, do you feel bad about like let me ask you this if you've got like bipolar disorder or you have depression or anxiety like do you feel bad about taking some sort of medication to help keep that under
Starting point is 00:06:28 control and not make you feel suicidal like what if you're just a fat person and you've got these impulses that that make you want to eat all the fucking time what if that's just how your brain is wired and then you take some ozempic and then you don't want to eat like that's what's kind of happened to me. The biggest takeaway I have from using this is like I never want sweet things. Like I ate a couple of pieces of cake, not pieces of cake, a couple of bites of cake yesterday. And I'm like, this is fucking gross. Like, that's been the biggest thing that happens to me when I take this shit is the sweets do not sound appealing to me. And I really just want to eat like watermelon and grapes. Like fruit sounds more appealing to me than cake. That's been my biggest thing
Starting point is 00:07:09 that's happened to me when I take a GLP one. But like the idea that people feel bad at about this. The people who should, like, and like the workout people who shame you, like, oh, fuck yourself. The same people that tell you that you're fat and you need to lose weight are the first people to shame you because you start taking a drug that helps you lose weight. And by the way, you'll probably start exercising more once you lose this weight. Help me and my dog walk like seven, eight, nine miles a day. Like, whatever. Chrissy also has some harsh words for celebs who try to keep that stuff private, saying, quote, it's frustrating sometimes when other people don't share their problems on socials.
Starting point is 00:07:48 Well, Chrissy, not everybody wants to share all their fucking deep, dark, dirty shit for attention like you do, because that's all you have. You're not exactly a skilled human. What is your skill? You were hot 15 years ago. That's your talent. No offense, Chrissy Teigen, and I say this with all due respect. I think you're a lunatic.
Starting point is 00:08:06 And your talent was you were hot 15 years ago. Not everybody who has talent and is famous wants to go to social media. and look for social media pity like you do. So the, like, I don't know, man. Like, why feel shame about losing weight however it is you choose to lose weight? You know, it is possible. And look, I'm not trying to defend the idea of fatness, but like, there are people who part of their mental makeup is like they're just addicted to certain horrible fatty shit.
Starting point is 00:08:38 You know, that happens. That's life. You get addicted to shit. You get addicted to shit. You get addicted to cake you get addicted to whatever and before you know it like you cannot get off the train and it's impossible and this shit you take this drug and it fucks with your mind to the point that you don't want to eat the shit anymore and you lose a bunch of weight and that's something to be that feel bad about I know somebody from Nashville who is clearly on one of these supplements one of I say supplements not supplements a drug is clearly on one of these drugs and I've seen pictures of this person from when I knew them and worked with them to now. And I'm like, this person has lost so much weight. It doesn't even look like the same person.
Starting point is 00:09:17 But good for them. Who gives a shit? Like, who cares? It's like somehow like, it's like you can't let someone just be happy with themselves because of a jealousy thing that you have. Like, oh, I chose to go to the gym and do this. And I don't like that this person took shortcuts. You could too. Like, who are you to sit there and judge?
Starting point is 00:09:38 someone because you decided to go lift weights and got in shape and this person decided to take g lp1s and lost 30 pounds and oh by the way you're going to lose muscle mass with these things too so unless you actually like follow up with it and do some other shit you could look really shitty taking these so like yes you could lose weight but you could also look pretty gaunt and there's a lot of celebrities there's ozempic face you've heard that term before ozempic face but the idea that like you're such a horrible human for doing this then the that you're a hero if you talk about it like the world's so fucked up we judge people for shit and then we elevate people to hero status for talking about shit just being normal
Starting point is 00:10:16 stop being weirdos you're not a hero and you're not a terrible human you take manjaro and no like who gives his shit and if it makes you feel good it makes you feel good and this again in the same vein like i like i don't like i'm sure i have some form of anxiety and some form of depression everybody probably does i don't want to take any medications for anything like that because I don't want to take mind-altering medications and shit that can really fuck with you. So I don't do it. And I don't really want to. But I don't judge people who do.
Starting point is 00:10:47 That's like saying, yeah, they're actually fucking crazy, but good for them. They take pills to balance that out. Like, fuck you. Like, you would never say that. You would never walk around, like, a person that doesn't have anxiety and then judge someone for taking, I don't know, a clonopin for their anxiety. You would never go, yeah, but just know that they really do have anxiety. and they're really bad shit crazy, but they're on clonopin.
Starting point is 00:11:12 But we do it for fat people who want to take a g-lp-1, and we judge them for that. We go, yeah, but I'm in the gym, and those people are fat lards that had to cheat to lose weight. Eat a dick. That's also the thing, though. I don't feel guilty about anything. Like, I love people to talk about guilty pleasures or whatever. Like, I'll hear radio shows like, hey, what is your guilty pleasure song? Like, what's that song you're not supposed to like?
Starting point is 00:11:37 But you just like it anyway. And I'm like none of them. Because if I like the fucking song, I like the fucking song. Not to ruin your bit or anything or be a killjoy. But if I like a song, I like a song. I've never understood the concept of guilty pleasures. And I'll never understand the idea of feeling guilt. You know what I feel guilty?
Starting point is 00:11:55 If I don't have any bags on a walk and my dog shits in someone's yard and I have nothing to pick it up with. That's when I feel guilty about something. I feel horrible. I'm like, shit. That's not right. I'm doing something to someone else that I'm not supposed to do. that I feel bad about. I don't feel bad about putting a needle in my stomach once a week to lose some
Starting point is 00:12:12 fucking weight and not feel like a total fucking asshole. Like maybe see my dick at some point. But I'm also not going to get on the internet and be like, I want to share my journey because I'm proud of it. I'm just going to take the fucking weight loss drug and lose weight. And if someone points out like, hey, how'd you lose that weight? I'll say Manjaro. Hey, this is my journey.
Starting point is 00:12:34 Look, I was, I looked down and I, really, I was sad that I didn't see my penis anymore and maybe part of it was because my grandma died 10 years ago and I just haven't gotten over it. So I gained a lot of weight and I can't see my dick and balls. So I decided that I needed to do something about it. So I started taking gLP ones and I'm on a quest to see my dick and balls. Like just go make something up. Just go make up some reason why you have to take these drugs to feel better about yourself.
Starting point is 00:13:02 No one's going to question you on it. They're all dipsheds. Anyway, more to come.
