Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show, your home for open, honest, and provocative conversations. Hey everyone, I'm Megyn Kelly. Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show and happy Friday. Well, the January 6th theater hit primetime last night. Did you watch? We're going to get to some of what the Democrats want you to believe are the highlights later this show. I've got some thoughts, a lot of thoughts, actually. But just hours after the January 6th findings were put on display, the party and the White House and the rest of us got a major reality check on what actually matters to Americans. A new report from the Bureau of Labor finding that last month, inflation saw the fastest increase since December of 1981. Your humble correspondent was 10. Most of you listening, half of you probably weren't even born. Analysts were expecting 8.3%.

Instead, it came in at 8.6%.. We're going in the wrong direction now. They were saying, oh, maybe it's peaked. It's peaked. It hasn't peaked. And God knows where this is going to end. Food prices are up 10 percent from a year ago. Energy prices up 35 percent, which you hardly need me to tell you that. You can feel that one. Fuel oil up an astonishing 107 percent from last year. The average price of gas is now approaching $5 a gallon. In a moment, I'm going to be joined by The Daily Wire's Michael Knowles to talk about the January 6th hearing last night on Capitol Hill, the theater. And later in the show, we will close out a busy week with some fun with comedian Christina P., who's amazing. God, she's funny.

But first, we got to get to this inflation and the economy. And here to break down what it all means is our pal Eric Bolling, host of The Balance on Newsmax. Eric, my friend, great to see you. Great to see you, Megan. I wish I could come on when we had some better news, but wow, this inflation stuff is bad. So put it in perspective because they were hoping it was going to go down. They thought it may be maybe 8.3. It's going in the wrong direction as like pretty much every metric economically is. So how bad is this and what does it mean?

No, it's super bad because it's not stopping here. And this is the problem. Every time I come on, I talk about how the Biden administration isn't changing anything. And all they really have to do is change their energy policy. They will not budge on their energy policy. I mean, they're so out to lunch when it comes to energy. Jennifer Granholm, the energy secretary of the United States, has no energy experience, none whatsoever. She laughed when a Bloomberg reporter asked her, you know, what are you going to do about gas prices? The energy secretary of the United States has no energy experience, none whatsoever. She laughed when a Bloomberg reporter asked her, what are you going to do about gas prices? There's a chuckle.

She laughs. You know why? Because they don't know. Here's perspective. A barrel of oil right now, and every time I come on, Megan, it's been higher. A barrel of oil right now globally is $122 a barrel. There was a time in 2020, towards the very end of Trump's presidency, it was late April 2020, it went to $10 a barrel, $10 a barrel. We were self-sufficient in oil. So here is the worst part of the problem. At $4.98.7, which is our national average today

for gas, that has to catch up to the $122 a barrel oil because you put oil through a refinery. It's a feedstock for the gasoline. It comes out of backside gasoline, heating oil, fuel oil, and jet fuel. $122 means you're probably going to exceed $6 or $7 a gallon in the United States unless that price came down on the crude oil side. And it's not. It just continues to go higher. Another big problem here, we're going into the cooling season, the air conditioning season in the United States. The number for electricity is up 12%.

So right now, it's only up 12%. What happens in August is you're going to see massive, massive spikes in your power bill on top of, you know, basically having to pull out a tooth to afford gasoline, your power, your electricity bills over the summer are going to be astronomical. And their only answer is go buy an electric car. And I know everyone's talking about a $60,000 electric car, but there's a bigger problem than being able to afford an electric car. The bigger problem is we, right now we have a million electric vehicles on the road,

1 million. We have 350 million vehicles total on the road, 1 million of them are electric. If you were to double that, just to 2 million, and not even put a dent in our consumption of energy, of oil and fossil fuels, it wouldn't put a dent in it. Double it to 2 million, we would never, ever, ever be able to power up those, those, someone was just talking to me, never be able to power up those, those, those, someone was just talking to me, never be able to power up those vehicles. There's just not enough power.

There's not enough sourcing of power. And again, all that batteries and the way you plug in and they like, you need that all over the place. You need the gas stations needed the rest stops. You need it every place. So the cars can keep going. Well,

yeah, but here we're going to have rolling Brownouts or New York and California already telling us this summer, get ready. You're going to have blackouts and rolling brownouts to just to be able to get power to people continuously, but they'll be blocked without pushing an electric vehicle agenda that they're pushing so hard right now. They're fools. They don't know what they're doing. And again, the biggest component of inflation, and they don't get this, they're not getting this, is energy, US energy. It's not Russian oil. It has nothing to do with Russian oil. Joe Biden was sworn into

office on January 20th, 2021. $2.39 was a gallon that day. It's never gone down. It's 108% higher right now, but it never went down. So them saying it's Putin's fault because the last dollar twenty is Putin. Well, guess what? The other three dollars were on them. It's insane. It's like a referee, the referee blowing a call in the fourth quarter and you're blaming the referee, but you lost 50 to nothing anyway. That's a good analogy. So yesterday we had on Ryan Grimm to talk about Joe Biden's mental health. It wasn't anything about gas, but he was mentioning and he's a left a left leaning person. He's of the intercept, but totally fair guy. But his take on the oil problem, the gasoline problem was we're going to be in this predicament until the Saudi prince decides we're not going to be. And what do you make of that? Because I know there are some people who say, look, the Saudis haven't been working for us. They're not backfilling what what we lost when we did the Russian embargo, the sanctions, which I don't really like the prince who, you know, Jamal Khashoggi, the Washington Post journalist, appears to have been murdered by or at his instruction. In any event, it's complicated because we need the Saudis to some extent on a number

of fronts. And he was basically blaming these gas prices on the prince, the Saudi Arabian prince. What do you make of that? Yeah. So the only reason why the prince matters or the mullahs in Iran matter or the dictators in Venezuela matter is because we've gone off being self-sufficient in energy. It's extremely simple. There was a point in 2020 where we were completely self-sufficient. We were not importing a single barrel of oil or products.

We were actually exporting our excess. That's why oil went to $10 a barrel. We had so much we were exporting. We're oversupplied. Now, with the pulling back of the Keystone Pipeline and all the other making it more difficult for oil companies to produce oil, making it more expensive for them to produce oil because of regulations and a really unfriendly business climate under the Green New Deal squadsters, oil companies produce less. And now we're importing 7 million barrels of oil a day. Russia was only a couple hundred thousand barrels.

They had nothing to do with it. So now we do. Yes, we have to go beg and Biden's got to go, you know, bow and beg to the to the oil, the OPEC oil cartel, gangster cartel who are holding it over our heads. But we didn't have to do this. They would solve every single one of their problems. You know what the weird thing is? They might even salvage a midterm election or a presidential election if they just started pumping oil. But they're too married to the ideology to do that. And they're willing to lose in the midterms and lose in 2024 just to appease the progressive wing of the party. And in the meantime, drag the middle class down into maybe the lower class in America. It's really a shame. Because this is like, I mean, everything's up.

You know, we're talking about gas. Shelter costs are up 5.5%. Airline fares are up 12.6%. That's the third straight double digit rise in those. They're saying that the inflationary number, again, now 8.6, could go up to 9%. This is sourced to the Wall Street Journal, as early as July and is likely to stay there until at least the fall. I mean, 9% inflation until at least the fall. I don't care how many hearings they have on January 6th, Eric. This is what the people are going to be looking at. until at least the fall. I don't care how many hearings they have on January 6th, Eric.

This is what the people are going to be looking at. They needed, Megan, they need to do a hearing with Janet Yellen, who admitted on television that they made a mistake. They blew it and they didn't see inflation heating up. And again, in conjunction with the White House. So what do they do? The reason why the stock market is down 800 points today is because the money people, the smart money realizes that the only way now to combat inflation, if they're not going to go after gasoline and reduce our prices at the pump, which would work, then they have to go at it with a money supply situation. So they're going to have to raise interest rates. That's always bad for stocks. And so stocks go down. Can I just point something out? Biden keeps blaming the global supply chain for inflation because prices are going up because of global supply. China, you know what China's inflation rate is today? 2.1%. France, 5.2%. We're 8.6% on our way to 10% because it has nothing to do with the global supply chain. It has everything to do with the price we're paying six on our way to ten because it has nothing to do with the global supply chain

it has everything to do with the price we're paying for fuel fuel is in a component in every single thing we buy everything we buy i don't care what you tell you pick a product i'll explain how oil and fuel have a component in the in the price of that damn it toilet paper everything and not to mention the cost of delivering this stuff. Diesel, $5.75 a gallon today. $5.75. That's a trucker that has to fill up a 200-gallon, 300-gallon tank. And then what? What's he going to do? He's not doing it for free, so he's got to raise his transportation costs. It's crazy. Yeah. I mean, I've heard from a lot of our listeners and our viewers who talk about how they live in the Midwest or they live in so-called flyover country, and they have to fill up the gas tanks of tractors. They have to drive as much as

an hour to the gas pump to begin with because they're not living right next to it. They're more rural-based. And then they got to fill up huge tractors multiple times. I mean, can you imagine how they are feeling these prices? These aren't rich people. These don't tend to be people who have tons of income at the ready. And then on top of it, you see your 401k take a nosedive because the market's down 800 points because they can see what's coming, which is more interest rate hikes. Yeah. Yeah. And it is.

And it is coming. And 401ks are going to be hurt. But again, we talk a lot, Megan lot as far as an investment strategy goes. If you're on a regular investment strategy, stay with it. Stay with it because otherwise you're playing games and trying to time markets. And even the pros have hard times doing that. So just do a regular. Don't panic.

Over the course of time, things will work out. It may take a Republican Congress to stop some of the horrible, horrible legislation that they're pushing through with a Democrat House, Senate, and White House. So maybe just having the Congress flip would be, I would say, would be very positive to the market. It's so hard because the damage has been done. To your point, it's been done. He's already unleashed a lot of the problems that are causing this, and it's really hard to get that tiger back into the cage. Eric Bolling, I'm not going to say anything, but I'm looking forward to talking to you soon

about the exciting things. Maybe at a different time, Meg. Perhaps. Stay tuned. Different time of day. Congrats to nothing, to nobody, and we'll talk soon all right thanks always good to be out with you you too eric what a pleasure eric bowling everybody uh and now we turn our attention to january 6th and the committee's first primetime hearing last night

how many they're gonna be they're gonna be seven they were like in our second hearing and in our 479th hearing, see footnote 404. It was like, how long is this going to go on for? Last night was the first primetime hearing. The next one's already coming on Monday, actually at 10 in the morning. I guess they're not all primetime. The corporate media, very excited about all the supposedly new revelations. Really? What specifically? What did we actually learn? Anything? Joining me now, our pal Michael Knowles, the host of The Michael Knowles Show on The Daily Wire. Michael, great to have you back. What were your impressions of January 6th theater? Megan, it is so good to be with you. I so enjoy speaking with you

that I actually watched some of the January 6th hearings. I had absolutely no intention of watching even a second of it. It's such a farce. It's such a joke. But I said, no, I'm going on Megan Kelly's show. She expects me to have seen this. And so by golly, I'm going to do it. You're a good man. Don't let anybody tell you different. Don't me to have seen this. And so by golly, I'm going to do it. You're a good man. Don't let anybody tell you different. Don't listen to the God King, Jeremy Boring over at Daily Wire. So to me, I'll tell you this. Let me start. I'll take the first shot at it. As a lawyer, I was offended by the absence of a defense. You know how easy it is to go into a courtroom and win a case when there's nobody on the other side? Just me? Back to me again? Great. No cross-examination of my witnesses,

no differing perspective, no caution exercised because I know I'm going to get slammed if I misrepresent. Great. I'd have 100%. Can you say batting average? I don't understand the sports analogy. I'd win every case is what I'm trying to say. And it was readily apparent last night. And, you know, there were obvious misrepresentations on some of the facts, obvious misrepresentations, which they weren't called out for. But I have to say, like, there were manipulations, Michael, and I'll give you one that I just texted my team. As a television person and a lawyer, one of the things I noticed in their pre-produced

package that the media was salivating over was the track, the audio track that accompanied it of like, ah, ah, F in this, ah. It never deviated. And the scenes changed. There was a still shot of a noose. There was shot of one mob in one part of the Capitol, a different shot of a different piece of the mob in a different part of the Capitol, a shot of the mob ascending the stairs to the Capitol, and the audio never changed. Now, that is unethical. As a journalist, you could be fired for doing such a thing. That's a theatrical trick that you do to sort of amp up people's emotion. But if I ever tried that on a package for Brit Hume on Special Report, he would have fired me. You can't do that. It's a manipulation. And in a court of law, it would never be allowed that. That's why you have an opposing counsel to make sure that what's being introduced in front of the trier of fact is fair and fairly and accurately represents the events as they went down that day. You can't just find the most incendiary audio track, lay it under all your various pictures and say, see how bad it was. That's just one example. That's a perceptive observation, Megan. And it it is propaganda what we are seeing on the bright side. I don't think that it's persuading anybody.

And it gets to your first point, which is that there was no opposition here. This was the biggest mistake that Pelosi and the Democrats made with regard to the January 6th hearings. The Republicans were going to play ball. Whether or not it was a good idea for the Republicans to play ball remains an open question. But they were willing to play ball. And then Pelosi rejected Jim Jordan and Jim Banks from being on the committee. She would only allow the squishy fake Republicans to come on who are effectively just Democrats like Liz Cheney. So at that point, the Republicans had the perfect out to say, OK, you're not going to allow real Republicans to be on this committee. So we're not going to participate in this. You don't get you don't want Jim Jordan. You don't want Jim Banks. We're out. And and so now it just looks like such obvious theater. If you if you had

real Republicans on that committee sitting there pushing back, grilling, many more people would be watching this and it would be having a far greater effect on the political discourse. It would seem like this really, really matters. But as it is now, it's just one long, fairly poorly produced Democrat campaign ad. And people, regardless of their partisan inclinations, just don't really care about that so much. It's not going to have the midterm election effect that they wanted it to. It's so true. It's like, and now here to defend Trump, the Lincoln Project. I mean, it's like, just because these two people, Cheney and Kinzinger, have an R in name only after their

names at this point, does not mean that they are actually going to provide the defense perspective, which would have been illuminating. But by the way, already happened at the impeachment hearing because we've been through this already. Right. So it's like we've done this already. We did hear a defense. And by the way, he wasn't found guilty. So what why are we doing this again? I'll give you another misrepresentation that jumped out at me. As part of the salivated over video tape that they showed at the end in order to bring home the dramatic moment. And don't forget, they hired James Goldson of ABC News, who is the guy who changed GMA into more of a salacious type morning program effectively for ratings. But this is my point is he's not a Brit Hume. They hired him to produce everything. And you look at this package and it ends with like the zinger,

right? They've built up your emotion with the sound of it. And it ends with Trump, just voiceover of Trump saying, these were peaceful people. These were great people. And there was love in the air. Okay. when you hear it after having watched them battle with police and storm the Capitol, you're like, oh, my God, Trump. And I knew as soon as I heard it, I remembered this interview he gave to Maria Bartiromo seven months after the fact. And I said to my team, could you please go back and check? Because I guarantee you he was not talking about the mob in the Capitol, that he was talking about the people at his rally prior who were peaceful. Listen to what they did. And I was right. So here's the soundbite played. This is from their package, from their extraordinary video that they played last night. Listen, watch. They were peaceful people. These were great people.

The crowd was unbelievable. And I mentioned the word love, the love, the love in the air. I've never seen anything like it. Look at that. OK, so before we get to the full soundbite, so dishonest. They run that over, over an event

that he was not talking about. Again, you would be fired. Your ass would be fired from any news organization and you would be fired. Your ass would be fired from any news organization and you would be kicked out of court if you tried to submit that in a court of law. And here is that here is more of the interview he gave to Maria Bartiromo on July 11th, 2021 for greater context. And a tremendous number of people, the largest one I've ever spoken before is called by people, by patriots. And they asked me if I'd speak, and I did. And it was a very mild-mannered speech,

I think has been. In fact, they just came out with a report in Congress, and they didn't mention my name, literally. But what they were complaining about, and the reason, in my opinion, you had over a million people there, which the press doesn't like to report at all because it shows too much activity, too much spirit and faith and love. There was such love at that rally. You had over a million people there. They were there for one reason, the rigged election. They felt the election was rigged. That's why they were there. And they were peaceful people. These were great people. The crowd was unbelievable. And I mentioned the word love, the love, the love in the air. I've never seen anything like it. And, you know,

that's why they went to Washington. Michael, so dishonest. Well, this is what they did to Trump at Charlottesville, too. They used this clip of Trump after Charlottesville when he said there were very fine people on both sides of the issue of removing a Confederate statue. He immediately afterwards said, I'm not talking about the neo-Nazis. I'm not talking about the white nationalists. They should be condemned totally. But they clipped that out. And then what do they do? They put the clip of him talking about fine people over the images of neo-Nazis and white supremacists and all the rest of them. You knew this was going to be dishonest from the outset. There was a Democrat congressman from Mississippi who opened up the hearings and

he said, those people that I saw on January 6th, they remind me of the Ku Klux Klan and the white supremacists that I had seen in Mississippi. And obviously that's not an argument. He's not presenting any evidence of any connection between the Ku Klux Klan and the people who went to the Capitol. It was just so emotionally manipulative. And I just don't think it's really working. The Democrats have tried to pretend that the mob going into the Capitol is the worst assault on our sacred temple of democracy in history. And it's just not true. 1915, a Harvard professor set off a bomb in the Senate, blew up the Senate reception room. 1954, I believe it was, there was a group of Puerto Rican activists shot up the House of

Representatives, injured five congressmen. 1971, Weather Underground, a radical leftist group, bombed the Capitol. 1983 or 1984, another leftist group, the Armed Resistance Unit, bombed the Capitol. By comparison to that, the horn hat guy dancing around the rotunda is child's play. It just doesn't rank. And furthermore, the reason this doesn't resonate with people is because we know that what happened on January 6th is not only not the worst insurrection in American history, it wasn't the worst insurrection of the year. That would have been BLM, which spent eight months killing dozens of people. The January 6thers didn't kill anybody. BLM killed dozens of people,

attacked multiple federal buildings, and burned down cities coast to coast. So ordinary Americans in the middle, frankly, I think even center left and certainly the conservatives are watching this and they're saying, look, you're presenting us with a highly sensationalized, largely fictional narrative, and we're just not going to buy that. Yeah. 2,000 cops injured in the context of the BLM riots, and they want to look like they love cops by putting this one woman up to testify yesterday. And what she went an entire year plus. I mean, please, nobody believes that they're using these cops for political purposes. But you raise a good point, because that's another lie they told last night about how five police officers they've been pushing this. The news media has been pushing this. The Democrats have been pushing this. We heard it last night. You'll hear in this butted soundbite I'm about to play. The last person on there is

Congressman Thompson, who continued the lie about five cops being killed either at the January 6th riot or because of dying because of the January 6th riot. And in particular, Brian

Sicknick is one of them, but he's just one of the five listen we did put together a little sot montage of the claims which are untrue listen they beat a capitol police officer to death with a fire extinguisher officer brian sicknick died after being hit in the head with a fire extinguisher during the fight he died at the age of 42 after he was bludgeoned, the fire extinguished. Literally criminals to break through Cordon, go into the Capitol, kill a police officer. I know that some of the witnesses from our first hearing are in the room with us, along with some of the family members, friends and widows of the officers who lost their lives as a result of the attack.

As a result. OK, now Tucker addressed this last night. We've addressed it on our show. Glenn Greenwald's done great reporting on this. Brian Sicknick, according to the D.C. medical examiner, had not suffered any blunt force trauma. He died of a stroke in his office later. And by the way, no one's been charged in connection with Brian Sicknick's death. And as for the police officers who later committed suicide, that's what they're talking about with the five deceased police officers. The chief of the D.C. police has said publicly he has no idea whether those officers were driven to suicide by January

6th. Obviously, it's a very tough job and it had been a very tough year for cops in America. Again, the blatant using, they're using these cops and their unfortunate deaths to try to make a political point. They are. And the Democrats in Congress are still shamelessly doing it. The establishment media have since backed off it a little because it's just such a brazen lie. extinguisher. That would be the story on the front page. And then later on, they correct the story. But where do they correct it? On page Z1000. Now, the tweet that says that the January 6thers killed the police officer gets a gazillion retweets. And then the correction that you get from the media is barely noticed. And so the propaganda has its effect. It's been so effective, in fact, that the Democrats in Congress right now can still continue to perpetuate that lie with a straight face. I never want to attribute to malice that which is equally explained by stupidity. And I don't think that the average IQ of this committee is particularly high. If it is ignorance right now, someone should correct the record, because if it's if it's an intentional lie, they are, as you say, abusing these cops and their families, exploiting their deaths for their own political purposes. It's a disgraceful and shameful thing, though, in a year or two years where the Democrats have been consistently attacking cops.

I guess it's no surprise. Well, that's the thing, right? It's like if we're going to do that, OK, and I don't know, maybe the stress of that day did factor in in some way. I would I would be open minded to evidence of that. But what about the stress of what the Democrats did to these cops over the previous year? Right. Look what happened to these cops. Even before George Floyd, they were being demonized by Democrats and called racists and investigation after investigation into police department after police department because of one suspicious arrest. Even one that would later be found OK would lead to investigations in the Obama administration. It's like we're going to do this. We're going to try to say if when a police officer commits suicide, it's directly because of this stressful event. We're going to be here for a long time. And it just to me is yet another manipulation because they don't have what they really need.

Michael, they don't have the smoking gun of Trump saying we're going to the Capitol. We're storming the Capitol. We're taking back this election. We're not letting the electors pass their votes or cast their votes. And this is an insurrection. We're not giving up power. It's all rhetoric by Trump around it. Like, be strong. And Mike Pence better do the right thing. Of course, Trump was wrong about that. Trump lost the election. I've said that repeatedly. His own daughter said it last night. She believed Bill Barr. Fine. You can disagree with that if you want. But he's entitled to his belief. He actually is entitled to his belief. It's whether he caused a riot, whether he caused it in the eyes of the law. The answer to that is no. And they have nothing, by the way. This is how you know that the rest of the hearings are going to be extremely boring and they'll try to insinuate lots of things. They might even lie

a little bit, but they won't have that smoking gun. The way you know that is because if they had the smoking gun, we would have already heard about it. That is not the same thing as when Republicans hold a hearing. When Republicans hold a hearing, sometimes they can present new information. The reason for that is that the media hate the Republicans. The media and the Democrats are on the same side. They work together. They collude, to use a popular word. And so we would have already heard it from the Democrats' mouthpieces in the establishment media, whereas sometimes Republicans need these sorts of political stunts even to get the message out. But we haven't had it. It's been a year and a half now. We don't have anything. In fact, the most damning evidence that the Democrats did have in January and February of 2021

has been disproven at this point. So they've got nothing, and you're going to have Liz Cheney making lots of hot air, but blowing out hot air and grandstanding in her fleeting moments left in Congress. You're going to have the Democrats try to get some good campaign ads out of this. I don't even think they're going to get that. And then everyone's going to move on because the American people, if you couldn't convince them to care about this in February and March of 2021, you're certainly not going after Trump politically because he was the sitting president and he wasn't accepting reality. And he did say a lot of things that got people upset and caused them to believe that the They weren't able to get a conviction. And now they're going back for another bite at the apple pretty openly because they want to get a political let up leg up before the midterm elections. That's what this is about. Only this time, there's no one there to defend Trump. I mean, it's it's just the most nakedly partisan thing I've seen done in a long time. I'll give you one other thing.

There's there. I guess their smoking gun that they thought they had was a suggestion by Liz Cheney who came out of her mouth, not a witnesses that that Trump, when listening to his supporters chant, hang Mike Pence, may have reportedly said something like good idea or, you know, maybe my supporters are on to something. Got it coming. OK, right. That that was not introduced into evidence that came from her mouth about something that we may or may not learn. He's already denied it. Right. But this is what they do. They sprinkle. And then the media, it's a big headline today. They're all running with that. That's not in evidence. That's why

people need to keep in mind there are no standards to what they're putting in front of you. It is theater and it ought to be treated as such. I'll give you the last word. You're absolutely right on this, Megan. The reason they are going to continue this, though, is because they truly have nothing else. I don't say this just because I'm a conservative and I'm a Republican. They have nothing that they can possibly run on in the midterms. The economy is in the doldrums and no one believes them when they say it's in a good spot. They can't run on foreign policy. We've got the first major war in Europe breaking out since World War II. That's not going to work. They can't even run on COVID.

That was the one issue that they were above water on. But even that they've botched and they're underwater on COVID. They could try to bring it back, I guess. But I think people are past their lockdowns and their mandates and their masks. So they have truly nothing else. And the only message that you're going to hear from now until the midterms is, do you remember how bad that awful mean tweeting orange man was? And frankly, when people are paying $7 a gallon for gas, I don't think they're going to look on the Trump years as the horrible insurrectionist mayhem that the Democrats are trying to paint. I think they're going to look on the Trump years as the horrible insurrectionist mayhem that the Democrats

are trying to paint. I think they're probably going to look on it fondly and say, maybe these Democrats aren't giving us what they promised us we would. It felt like weird anti-Trump porn. You know, the people who hate him were like, yeah, back to the anti-Trump stuff. God, he was such a fun villain. Let's get him. What else can we misrepresent? Yeah, let's do it. No one's going to hold us to account. It's the media's on our side. This is good. Yeah, lay it in there. Fine. Put the scary quote over the noose. Do it. Anyway, people get it. I think they get it. Michael Knowles, you get it. As always, a pleasure. Great to be with you, Megan. Thanks. Coming up, we're switching gears this Friday with the hilarious comedian,

Christina P. Don't go away. It's been a busy, serious week, and we need to switch gears before we go into this weekend, do we not? Comedian Christina P joins us now for the first time to talk about the joys and drags of parenting, how to not kill your joys and drags of parenting, how to not kill your husband, and much, much more. A lot of stuff she's got some good wisdom on.

Christina is the co-host of the wildly popular podcast, Your Mom's House, with her husband and fellow comedian, Tom Segura. And she has a new special on Netflix called Mom Jeans, G-E-N-E-S, which will have you laughing out loud. Christina, so good to have you here. Oh my gosh, I'm so excited to be here. I feel like I wrote the special just so I could do press and talk to you. I'm honored. I love your setup. It's what's going to look like a throne that you're sitting in there. Of course it is. I've decided that I haven't moved past what i liked when i was 15 years old so this is like my fantasy teenage bedroom i can relate

to that yeah i'm gonna get quark m-e-g-y-n letters for my my master bedroom soon i'm inspired remember that why not did you ever have that when you were growing up? Wait, what was it? The cork letters, you know, your name in cork. I wish. I wish my parents were that savvy enough to get stuff like that for me. Yeah, that's right. You talk openly about how they might not have been 100% there for you at all times. But that's what led to your great gift as a comedian. Well, isn't that what leads to your great gift as a comedian well it doesn't isn't that what leads to

a great career in show business i mean first of all i'm a huge fan of you i listen to your podcast and yeah if you would have told me five years ago that i would be on megan kelly's show i'd be like no way but i think the world has changed so much and now i listen to you and i'm like yeah this he's broad saying some smart stuff. And we're both for freedom of speech. And I hate cancel culture, too. And yeah, I'm just so happy to be here. Thank you.

Thank you so much. I saw that you studied philosophy and I was like, I know I know I'm going to like talking to her because it does give you just a different way of looking at the world. And it does give you like an open mindedness that the way you see things might not be the only way. Absolutely. And I think that's why it's so frustrating for me now, especially as a comedian, to see people getting canceled. Like what happened to being able to listen to anybody and just take what you like? You know, I listen to you and I agree with some stuff and then I go, no, no, no, no. But I take and then you form an opinion and that's OK. And it it breaks my heart that people's lives are getting ruined. I was listening to Elia Shapiro on your show last

week and that guy's life was ruined from that whole Georgetown thing. And you're like, because of a tweet. Are you kidding me? Oh, my God, that reminds me, I'm actually going to pull this up. So he basically had his life ruined for this tweet he sent out and immediately apologized for and tried to reword about Joe Biden saying he's only going to pick a black woman for the Supreme Court seat being vacated by Breyer. And Ilya said, well, you should really pick this guy on the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals. He's Indian and he's so he's got diversity, but he's brilliant. And if you pick anybody less than him, they're going to be less qualified by definition. And the way he landed the tweet was instead, we're going to get stuck with a lesser black woman. He didn't mean black women are lesser by definition.

He just meant anybody other than this guy. So his life was blown up. They put him on suspension for four months at this job. He's about to start at Georgetown. They finally said, OK, you can come because you didn't technically belong to Georgetown yet when you tweeted it. And Ilya, to his credit, walked. He basically gave him the middle finger and said, thanks, but no thanks.

I'm joining the Manhattan Institute. So yay. But can I tell you something? I'm scrolling Twitter the other day and there is a woman. She's not at Georgetown. She's at Stanford. Stanford law named Michelle Dauber. OK. And she was pissed off about the Johnny Depp verdict. And OK, that's fine. But she went on a tear about women lawyers who defend men in particular in any me too situation that you tell me why Michelle Dauber is not suspended at Stanford. Listen to this. Of all the women who suck up to male power, women lawyers are the absolute worst of the bunch. Desperate to prove they are real lawyers and understanding that being a woman undermines their identity as lawyers, they throw women under the bus as hard and fast as they can.

Then she goes on this little rant of, she shows this one female lawyer, Bill Cosby's skirt. Another female lawyer, Brock Turner's skirt, Aaron Persky's skirt, Harvey Weinstein's skirt, Cuomo's skirt, Cuomo's other skirt weinstein's wannabe skirt all you sellouts are going on blast today are kelly's skirt barbara from how does this woman still have her university job teaching young lawyers oh i know and look i'm i'm no lawyer but i did spend two whole weeks in law school and i dropped out. And I look, isn't isn't the job of the law to give the best possible case for everybody? The law is blind. Isn't that the whole point? Yes. Everyone is entitled to a lawyer, a defense lawyer, criminal, civil, doesn't matter why. I don't get to represent anybody accused of me, too, because I have a vagina.

Michelle, you might not understand the rules of womanhood. We're going to have to chat. Yeah, I think you're not supposed to call yourself a woman. You're a person with a vagina now, right? Oh, that's true. Just a person with a vagina. But men still get to be men. Men don't just have to be like a person with penis. That's true. And did you know that men are not fat models, that only women are fat models? Oh, my God. I never thought of that. Yeah.

Did you see the swimsuit? What is it called? Sports Illustrated. Did you see that? Yeah. The swimsuit issue. Yes, I did. And the irony is, is that it's a men's fitness magazine and there's a really overweight lady

on the cover. And anyway, I tweeted tweeted i'm like super model more like supper model and it's not even that great of a tweet but boy did it start a firestorm and did you get a shit storm sure did and it felt really good because it's absurd it's all absurd the thing is like jordan peterson got like chastised for saying he did not find the heavyset gal. Forgive me. I don't I didn't know her. I don't know her name.

Beautiful. He said not beautiful. Now, that is his opinion. He is not required to think this person is beautiful. Like you can totally disagree with him. You can say you're a douchebag. But why does he have to be run off Twitter for saying that? Not for me.

Sorry. I know. And I love that you said douchebag. And I love when you curse. It's my favorite. It's the new me. Sorry. I know. And I love that you said douchebag. And I love when you curse. It's my favorite. It's the new me. I mean, it's the true me. I think it is.

Yeah. Because you dropped an F-bomb last week and I almost fell out of my chair. I was like, this is amazing. I wasn't allowed to all those years on cable and network television. So sometimes I really had to try hard to filter because I do have a mouth like a sailor i know me too me too i couldn't fit i you know i tried to fit into polite society like i said i was i was in law school for two whole weeks and then i had 22 jobs in four years after college that i either got fired from or quit and and then i found comedy and i was this is perfect. I get paid to be

an asshole. Okay. So I have a question about that for you. I have a question about that. So we kind of have a similar job hazard when we're off duty in that we're used to saying things that normal people might find offensive. So like if you go out to dinner with new people, do you censor or what do you do? Let me tell you. So I feel like I've kept my circle pretty insulated. Like everybody that works here in Studio Jeans, we call Studio Jeans a safe space

because you're allowed to say whatever you want. So I feel like I don't even let that into my circle. Like you'd be kicked out so fast. So the short answer is no, I don't censor. And you can tell pretty quick who's down for you and who's not. Yes, yes. So we just moved to a new town this year

and I'm just in the process of meeting people, tends to be other moms, you know? And I'm always thinking in the back of my head, edit, edit, edit. Not everybody talks like you. Not everybody will touch these third rail subjects casually over dinner. Be careful.

And that's actually how I found your podcast because we were living in Los Angeles during the pandemic, the pandy. And there was a point where I, you know, I grew up liberal as can be. I grew up in Los Angeles and I'm like a 90s liberal. And there was a point where I was looking around and I'm like, wait a minute, people are wearing their N95s alone in the car. And wait a minute, I'm not so sure I need to wear a mask when I'm out walking in the open air. And my two-year-old certainly doesn't need to wear a mask and I found these other moms who on the down-low

agreed with me and it became in hushed tones like you should listen to Megyn Kelly you should listen to her she has good ideas and I was like oh my gosh and it opened up this whole world of like yeah I agree with you on so many issues and we decided to leave LA, not that I'm poo-pooing LA, because it's still my, I love it, I love it. I just think they're in a weird place. When I applied my son to kindergarten

and they asked me what his pronouns were. Oh, good God. And I'm like, he still can't wipe his butt. I don't think he knows. Still up to us and it's as identified it should be clear yeah and like i'm so sick of people saying that there's no gender difference between little boys and girls and if you've raised children especially boys i have two little boys three and six uh there's a difference like oh it's all a social construct. Girls are the same. Really? Have you seen a six year old girl piss out a campfire? Oh, my God. out. I think when we're so quick to label, it just, I mean, imagine being like, for instance,

in the nineties, I was dressing up like Robert Smith of the cure and I'm pretty sure I'm not trans now. I just wanted to piss off my mom, you know? But yeah, just let, let them be. And they're always like, tell kids to be themselves. Like you don't have to tell them to be themselves. I feel like they know. Yeah, they're on it. Can I tell you a story on the subject about the masks? I just heard this and we haven't covered it in a while. Friends of mine in Pennsylvania put their kids in private school because they were trying to rush away from the crazy COVID policies of the public school and the crazy, you know, critical race theory, all that stuff. And the private school wound up being more insane on all of this than the public school. And their one child's school, I think this is a different private school, but in private, right now, okay, June, is making the children young. I think that there

are little guys only five, four, four or five, and 95 all day with another mask on top, even while outside. No. Yes. How insane is that? They're at their wits end. That's like when you see these lunatics in the airport wearing hazmat suits. Remember that? I don't know if you ever traveled.

And wearing masksmat suits. Remember that? I don't know if you ever traveled. And wearing masks on masks. That's who I know I'm not going to talk to when I see the double masker. Just setting them up for mental illness and not making friends in life. Well, somebody was just lamenting how we get on the airplane now, we just look down at our devices and we don't talk to the person next to us anymore. I have to say, I like that. That's one good thing about the iPhone. Yeah, I'm not so sure I'm bummed about that. It's pretty cool for me. No, there's one time I sat down on a plane and I wound up next to the guy who bought Penthouse. He bought it. Bob Guccione put it into bankruptcy and this guy bought it.

And it led to this hilarious exchange. But we basically talked about porn for like two hours. I don't know if I put this in the good quality or the bad, like which category does this go in this, this airline ride? Did you talk about like the kinds of porn? Yes. He was talking about how he, he was a real estate baron and he kind of got into porn by accident and how now like his wife, who is this respectable wife of a successful realtor, wound up going with him to these like porn industry Oscar type events where they're literally be like, and for best anal. And he'd be like, yes, that's our girl. Yeah. Yeah, we I love I know the AVN Awards.

Yes, we play clips on your mom's house of this, this girl. What was her name, mommy? My staffer is here. She goes, it's a famous clip where she goes, she goes, I was, it wasn't until they said, you have two in you, you have three in you, that I was like, oh my gosh, this was actually happening. I'm proud of myself. Well, you're proud of yourself. Wow. Okay. We had her on our show to explain why she was proud of herself. It was Jules Ventura. Yeah. Why? What was the answer? Well, thank you for asking. I love that we're doing this kind of thought provoking stuff on your show. This is all I've ever wanted is to talk about a woman that had two in her or three in her with megan kelly um she said that

because her her vagina and her anus are like muscles that it was an athletic feat like it was like i stretched i did it i'm proud of myself you know we had this woman over to our home we fed her dinner like i we ended up being friends with our sweetest lady. Oh, I'd love to hear the background on how she got to that point in life. All right, stand by. Let me do a quick commercial and we'll come back because clearly there's a lot more to go over with Christina P. And don't forget, folks, you can see the Megyn Kelly show in many venues, youtube.com, download this podcast and listen to us live on Sirius XM Triumph channel every day at

noon. Your journey through motherhood from the beginning right to where you are now with a six and a three year old, two boys, is absolutely hilarious. But what's great about you is unlike most of us, you can find the way in and the way out that most of us are just like, well, that was annoying. And you're like, oh, no, no, no, this is a comedy moment. I can do something with this. Or we're like, that was traumatic. And you're like, oh, no, no, I'm going to make people laugh about this. You do a bit on natural birth that certainly people this is from an earlier special, but it sort of sets up where we're going to go in your later mom journey. This is soundbite nine. All these nutbags in L.A like oh christina you gotta have that baby

naturally you gotta do it natural you gotta give birth naked in a creek you can bite on branches for the pain ah well women have been doing it that way for thousands of years well yeah before drugs were invented they were like christina what's your birth plan i was like motherfucker i plan on not feeling shit give me the 1950s birth. Put me out. Wake me up three days later with a baby and a martini. In the end, that's not how it went for you, however.

No, I wanted it to go that way. I planned a C-section. But that joke actually came from a real video. If you Google woman gives birth in Creek, she did it in Australia. And she gave birth on rocks, Kelly, like squatting on rocks. And then like, all the villagers came out to take a peek. So unsanitary. Plus, what if the Creek's like really raging that day? Off he goes. Wait. It doesn't seem like a good idea did you did you uh do a natural i assume you had like um your relatives in the room with you and no hell no hell no i did a c-section for all three kids i feel like i got lucky because i i i was fine not doing a vaginal birth you know i felt like i'd already blown out my stomach and i didn't need to blow out the vag situation. But I would have, I was prepared to go natural. But then my first child was what

they call transverse, like he was diagonal. And they were like, if he straightens out before it's time, you can go natural. But otherwise, we think we should schedule it. I was like, fine, go ahead and schedule it. So then once you have one by C-section, then they're like, would you like a VBAC, you know, vaginal birth after C-section? I'm like, well, then I'm just blowing everything out. Then I have no abs left left i have no vag left i'm like can't we keep something tight and you know i i agree you know i scheduled my c-section and then on the morning of my scheduled c-section i went into labor and so i had to do it vaginally but i know this is like so tmi on your show. But yeah, they had to give me, you know, episiotomies.

I've had two. So it's so yeah, I didn't get to say my vag, which is such a bummer. But you can reconstruct. I mean, I know enough of my friends that like there are ways back. It's not a total surrender. It's just a rough ride. Oh, you give me the names of these friends. I'm going to call them.

I will. Oh, can I tell you something? these friends. I'm going to call them. I will. Oh, can I tell you something? Now, this is a true story. I was going to see, I can't remember, it was my derm or my dent. I don't remember who it was, but one of my doctors and his office was under construction. So he was like loaning an office from, he was renting or whatever from a different doctor. And it turns out that other doctor was some sort of a vag reconstruction doctor. So I had to go into these offices. I swear I wasn't getting vag reconstruction. Everything was intact because of my three C-sections. Anyway, I sat in the chair. I was fully clothed. There must have been a derm. I don't remember, Abby. Do we talk about this? But anyway,

I sat in the chair and there is a full floor to ceiling mirror, like right in front of you. And there's nothing obstructing. And if I hadn't had my clothes on, I mean, it would be a straight shot right out the hoo-ha. And then they would walk you through all that they, I mean, there are ways back, sister. I'm doing it. So I'm, yeah, I'm going to be in LA for the summer. I'm going to go, I'm going to look at Beverly Hills and I'm going to get it taken care of. But it's all good. You know, it's all good. And I think that's the surrender you make when you have children.

You're like, look, I had 40 good years with perky boobs and tight abs. I don't know. It's a sacrifice you make, but you look great. I mean, what are you doing? Are you Pilates? No, I don't exercise. That's the truth.

I've been through stints where I exercise. But no, I'm not I'm, no, I don't exercise. That's the truth. I've been through stints where I exercise, but no, I'm not a big exerciser. I, uh, I do. I know you mock it, but I do do the intermittent fascinating. I do too. I'm embarrassed to tell you. Oh, good. Cause I heard you do a bit on it. I was like, Oh, I'm ashamed to tell her. Wait. And I have something else to tell you about though. Oh, wait, I forgot to mention. I buried the lead. Three weeks before Memorial Day, I put on this show Dr. Kate Shanahan, Kate with a C, and Mark Sisson, who's a nutritionist and has a whole line of foods. It's called Primal Kitchen.

Because I was like, I want to lose five pounds by Memorial Day. And it's not like I'm overweight. I just want to lose a few extra pounds. And you're going into the bathing suit weather. People can relate. I'm like, so let's find some people. Can I tell you? Life changing. I have bought all of their books. I have the audio version. I have the hard copy version. I got rid of the hateful eight vegetable oils. I've been like decreasing the grains and the sugars, which I didn't think I could ever do. And now I have trained my body

to eat its own previously toxic fat instead of me running to the pantry for the sugary stuff. I'm telling you, go back and download that pod. It's a game changer. What is it again? Tell me. Steve Cracker, tell me what episode that was so we can make it easier on her. But it's Mark Sisson and Dr. Kate Shanahan. His book is Two Meals a Day, which is like, you need to read that. And then hers is, I think, The Fat Burner Fix, episode 3 idea. So I barely eat dinner. And then I wake up, I skip breakfast. And then I have the guys order Torchy's tacos, like a buffet. And then I eat queso and chorizo and avocado. And I gorge myself and that's it. And I support that. It's you'd be surprised. So I'll just start to go off on this tangent. But he's got this one recipe in his book, which I've been eating nonstop. And you would never think you could eat this and stay thin. It's like a taco casserole and it's two pounds

of ground beef on top of cauliflower rice, which I'm like, that's going to be disgusting. Wrong. Once it's mixed into a casserole, you can't even tell it's cauliflower rice, cheese, avocado, all these spices, olives if you want them, salsa. That could go on. Every one of my family loves it. You can eat like caloric, high fat things. You just can't eat a ton of sugar or pasta or, you know, all like the grains and like the gluten stuff has got to go. And let me tell you something else

that i love about this and i'm not even getting paid for any of this shit this is real this is a legit feeling you i'm no longer bloated at night what woman isn't bloated at night we're all bloated at night i've had 51 years bloated at night i i'm like oh my God, it's working. But can you, can you drink wine? Yes, you can drink wine. Mark Sisson, he, he orders like the organic lower sugar wine. That was too much for me. I'm still drinking the regular wine. And if you drink alcohol, like, I mean, liquor, you can do that. Like if you mix it with a club soda, you know, he doesn't want a bunch of, he would, I think he would allow like a little touch of an OJ or a touch of a cranberry juice. But anyway, it's game changing. You're not hungry. If you want a dessert after dinner, you can have like two squares of dark chocolate as long as

it's like 70 or 80 percent cacao, which is actually quite satisfying. I'm telling you, people, I hate that. You're welcome. It's cacao. It feels weird. It's so it feels. Hey, you're culturally appropriating there i don't think you're supposed to say it that way i know what am i supposed to say gosh well i'm hooked now that i live in the south y'all i'm so big into chick-fil-a i love chick-fil-a now the only problem is that they're closed on sunday because that's the day that they grind up the gay people to make the biscuits. And I love it. I love Chick-fil-A. It's so good. And you can have fried chicken. Really? Yep. It's on the okay list as long as it wasn't fried in one of the hateful eight

vegetable oils. Olive oil's cool. Coconut oil's cool. Butter is awesome. And you'll go see the list of the hateful eight, like canola, corn, soy oil, all that stuff's got to go. I'm on it. I know. I'm telling you. So yes, how has the move to Austin been? Because you, like so many people, fled the state of California for, I don't know if we can say greener pastures, but certainly more reasonable pastures. Yeah. Look, again, I'm a lifetime Angeleno. I still have love for my city. I have faith that it will come back. California is the fifth largest economy in the world. It was. I don't know if it is now, but it will triumph again. But Texas is fantastic. It has its own stuff. I went to the Hobby Lobby to buy Halloween decorations. And they're like, man, we don't sell Halloween decorations on account of our religious beliefs. And I was like, well, I'm you deal with the religious stuff? And I go, look, I made a decision. I either stay in LA and live with the woke or I moved to Texas and I live with Jesus. And as far as I know, Jesus never hit anybody at the Oscars. So I'm staying there.

I think you made the right call. It's like my brother, he moved to Atlanta and he said for the first like 10 years, his neighbor kept inviting him to come over for church. And my brother kept inviting him to come over for a barbecue. And by the end of the 10 years, they'd managed to combine it into a twofer and everybody won. But what's Austin like? Because it's kind of a liberal city in the midst of a red state.

Yeah. So it's so unique that way i feel like it's um what the 90s was in san francisco kind of which i i live there in the 90s so i i like that a lot um i love the southern culture they make a lot of chit chat and you and i are big city girls and we do not chit chat so that's been really hard it's like it's like i have to pay the boring toll every time i want to get something done and you know it's like they talk about nothing it's the hillbilly seinfeld every day of my life but they're so sweet um and i joined a women's book club like they're so into community which is new for me too in la i didn't even know my neighbors

and now i belong to a women's book club and all the books have been about husband murder which is a little weird yeah isn't Texas where we got the Texas cheerleading murder or the chainsaw wielding murdering mom like they're into that kind of thing I appreciate that it's a crime consumer yeah but I like that they are it feels normal here like I take my kids to birthday parties like kindergarten parties and they give the kids regular cupcakes not gluten-free sugar-free vegan cupcakes and and they're like yeah it's a boys party so we're handing out you know toy guns and there's snakes hanging everywhere. And I'm like, this is awesome.

It's so true. Yeah. How is it where you are? Connecticut is more reasonable than Manhattan was for sure. It's a lot more fair and balanced. It's just like there are people who are a little bit more conservative and that's fine. But even the liberals here are not as hardcore, woke progressives. There's a small sampling of it, but for the most part, people are just kind of reasonable and going about living their lives. But I have found as I put myself out there more, you know, like meet people, I have to make an effort to meet people. So Dr. Laura, who I know you also love said, just let it happen naturally. I know, i know you love i had her on my show i had the chance to ask her like all my questions and she was like you don't have to do that she's

like just live your life and you know it'll happen but anyway i have had the occasion to spend time with new new moms new people in my life and i have really decided I'm very socially awkward. I'm missing a bunch of skills. The irony of that. I'm not good at it. I'm not good at small talk. And I just feel like a bull in a china shop. And I definitely say the wrong things a lot. Hello.

But hey, thankfully, you and I have made a career on saying the wrong things a lot. Yeah. People want to hear us saying the wrong things a lot. Yeah. People want to hear us say the wrong things. Well, and I think your observations are so funny about like hanging out with moms because I can hear your L.A. background. You know, they're like, I don't know, Connecticut's more of a it's got normal people. New York had just a lot of like granola. My friends were cool. They were awesome. But like if you just walk down the street of New york you'd see a lot of like upper west side liberals who you know would never wear a stitch of makeup and had some birkenstocks on and maybe were carrying a sign for greenpeace or you

know planned parenthood here in connecticut they're more normal this this bit from your your current special mom jeans uh perfect moms i'll it and then we can talk about which state are we discussing? This is soundbite 14. And I work on my perfectionism. That's a huge problem with me, you know, because I compare myself to those perfect moms. Oh, you know, those bitches, those perfect moms. Oh, they got four kids and somehow they're a size zero what does she say oh i do intermittent fasting see yeah so does half the world is called starvation bitch the worst is when she's like my husband is my best friend gagging gross these are the same people that mouth kiss their moms and dads. I know it.

No, your husband is not your best friend. Your best friend is the person you talk shit about your husband to. Yes. So who are those moms? Are those your L.A. moms or those your Austin moms? No, definitely. Like, hey, I've met some cool L.A. moms and I want to give some shout outs to those broads. But yeah, there was definitely like the moms that drop off their kids in the Lululemon gear and they're like, I'm going to do yoga right now.

Like, bitch, no, you're not. Like, you're tired. Like, you've got to be tired like the rest of us. Please tell me you're just going to go home and eat something and take a nap while your kids are at school. Right. Yeah, there's the pressure. and you're just gonna go home and eat something and take a nap while your kids are at school. Right. Yeah, there's the pressure, but I feel like Texas moms are way, way cool. And I'm really digging the vibe of just survive,

especially the young years, like just get through it. Yeah, that's right. It's so cool. Six and three is hard. I mean, I will say mine are now 12, 11 and eight and it's awesome now. But it got awesome. You don't have to wait this long. It's going to get really awesome really soon.

What do you think? Four? Five? I think four is the crossover point for a little guy. I think four is where they start to show genuine signs of independence that you can exploit. Certainly by five. I mean, when they're five and, what is it, three or eight, five and eight, you're good. From that point forward, it's good, good, certainly by five, but I mean, when they're five and, and what is it? The three

years age of an eight, five and eight, you're good from that point forward. It's good, good, good. Okay. Now, are you best friends with your husband? Cause I've heard you talk about him, but I think you've, I feel like you and I are similar in that. We understand that men are from Mars and women are from Venus. I've been reading that book and there's definitely differences, you know? Yeah. I don't think I could say, I wouldn't say he's my best friend. I've been reading that book and there's definitely differences, you know? Yeah. I don't think I could say, I wouldn't say he's my best friend. I don't, I don't want my best friend on top of me. You know, I just like, he needs, you just, there needs to be some distance there where there's like, you're there questions. You know, I always say Doug is the perfect amount of aloof.

Like I'm, I'm still chasing him and he's still chasing me. You know, I like that. And if he were my best friend, it would be in the bag. I still feel like anything could happen, you know, like, I don't know. I like the mystery that's involved in our relationship where he's still kind of pursuing me and whatever. But no, my best friends, like that's the one you can have catty talk with. You can be your absolute worst self. You know, I try to bring my A game to my relationship with my husband. Well, yeah, I mean, I love your, I love it.

Aloof and mysterious, like Jackie Onassis. That's what she was. And I really try to do that. But then, like, what do you do when you have to make a brown? No, you don't do that in front of him. I don't do it in front of him, no. No, we don't cut our toenails or our nails in front of each other. We don't go to the bathroom with, like, the stall open, you know, the door open in front of them, no We don't cut our toenails or our nails in front of each other We don't go to the bathroom with like the stall open

You know, the door open in front of one another Like he uses some spray on his feet Like his athletic foot, whatever it is I'm like, don't do that in here, no, that's gotta go to the other room Like certain things cannot happen Even like prancing around naked I don't do that in front of Doug, like he's gotta earn it That's gotta be a moment, you know

If you just show it all the time It's like not a special thing speaking of foot spray my i was doing a target run the other day and i was like uh do you need anything from target and my husband's like yeah foot spray good news is it can also street uh treat my jockage because it kills the same fungus. And like, I want to be I want to be this woman of mystery. But like every time my husband uses the toilet, it looks like the bottom of a pudding cup. So I'm like, I don't know after himself. We have a Toto I have a total washlet like the toilet talks fancy and it doesn't I don't know why maybe we should get a stronger one. Do you have a washlet? No. Have you done the Toto yet?

Haven't done it, but whenever I go to a hotel and it's like cleaning me from below, it's like, whoa, how you doing? Oh my gosh, I have to send you a Tushy at least. You got to get into this. What do you mean? There's like a halfway there thing? Yeah, well, okay, so Tushy is like JV squad. It's like, you don't need a lot of, you just install it and it squirts water up there. But then if you're ready to move on to varsity, I highly recommend the Toto washlet 350E. You can get it on Amazon and it squirts hot water and it's like a full cleaning, a drying. It just massages you. It tells you you're a good person.

It loves you. And if you want to get the whole toilet, well, that's another deal. I would. I would. I don't. It seems like a lot. I'm not sure. Unlike your husband, I'm not really getting all that messy. Thatcher would love it. You're right. My eight-year-old. I'd never get him out of there. Oh, yeah. They love to push the buttons. my kids love to push the buttons on the toto right i mean like you're you're six year old he must never leave the bathroom no they love it they love it it's uh it's just all dicks all day in my house it's well speaking of that are you gonna go for the girl are you done i wish you know if i had started 10 years sooner i think i would go for three but yeah i mean i think i got the last egg out of me on that second baby i did ivf on my um younger one and i you know i do love having kids so much i i

wish but next lifetime yeah but you know what I also feel like it whatever when it comes to children almost does feel like what's meant to be will happen you know like I'll bet you that this is what you're meant to have for whatever reason like this is the family you were meant to have you know it's like I know that feeling of you because I wish I had met Doug 10 years earlier too we got married when I was 30. Well, we met when I was 35. And he's younger than I am, too. He's nine months younger than I am. And I know you married a young in two, which is annoying. So annoying. I'm annoyed by Doug's young. So I say to Tommy all the time. I'm like, oh, you're only 43. What's that like? You know, like, oh, I remember being that young. It's so gross. Does he rub it in?

All the time. He's like, oh, you're so old. I'm like, shut up. Oh, speaking of your amazingly talented husband, Tom Segura, just let's introduce him to the audience because he's also a comedian. Here's a bit from his standup. And it kind of involves your life in Soundbite 17. I'm a new dad. How about that? it's the best it's awesome guys always hit me up i don't know why they trust me but they're like should i do it and i'm like yeah

of course you should do it it's the best it's awesome they're amazing and also being a dad is easy man super easy it's way easier than being a mom. Here's all you got to do if you want to be a great dad. Seriously. Don't abandon your kid. That's it. That's all you got to do. So true.

Sad, but so true, right? So true. I feel like I hear mommy, mommy, mommy, right? So true. I feel like I hear mommy, mommy, mommy, mommy all day. Last week, I was like, call me Rick or Steve. I don't want to be called mom. I can't hear mommy one more time. Do girls do that too? Oh, yeah.

I have literally said to my children, stop. Stop saying that. Stop using that mommy. Stop it. I don't want to hear that one more time. I was thinking about it earlier. You're saying like we're watching some of the clips you were talking about how like you know you well i'll just play it i think i have it here um this soundbite 15 this is going to set up my point

watch so anyway i fell down the stairs getting to my baby in a hurry and that's how i broke my ankle and see that's a mother's love. That's a fucking mother's love. And nobody tells you this, but being a mom, it's an emotional roller coaster. Like, I go from joy to rage to exhaustion to exhilaration every six seconds, every day. And just when I'm ready to throw that baby in the river. He smiles at me. Yeah, yeah, they smile at you with those little jack-o'-lantern teeth. And you're filled with so much joy, you have crazy thoughts.

You're like, I want ten more! Come on, Tommy, we're fucking tonight. So I can relate to this because you're like, and you can get angry and you can lose your temper and you can think, oh my God, if I saw a video of myself right now, I would be horrified. I can feel myself inflicting the damage in this moment. And you're like, reel it back, reel it back. And then they do something awesome that makes you realize I'm doing a good job. That's what my takeaway is like. I actually, I might be kind of cool. I'm nailing this. Yeah. And that's the back and forth of motherhood and um like you're talking about trying to find cool mom friends it's so hard because i think i think it's hard to admit

that motherhood is a lot of suffering um it's not as glamorous as the baby bliss that they promote when like a kardashian gets pregnant I'll never forget seeing People magazine baby bliss and it's like yeah yes and yes and it's like I love them but some days are really really terrible but I always think about Jordan Peterson when he talks about taking the right path and I think that having children is the right path and it keeps you it keeps you in a good place because you're constantly striving to be your best self. And it forces you to look at all your stuff. And I've been in therapy for a decade, you know, just trying to identify feelings and have feelings and feel feelings. So it's been quite a journey. And I know you, I've heard you talk about your upbringing. And I think about like, what do I want to give peanut allergies because, you know, those were created.

Those didn't occur when you and I were children and they created them because they stopped giving peanuts to children because they thought that would give them allergies. Yeah. Yeah. Let's talk about resilience. I'm dying to talk about this with you because I know this is like one of your big things. Definitely. Definitely. I mean, I agree with everything you said and I think you're in the right state And I think it's great to be supported by a community that has the same values,

you know, like, one of the reasons we go out to Montana a lot and have a small cabin out there is I like the way the Montanans are, I like how they reinforce our values with our kids. You know, my kid didn't stand fast enough in the national anthem played at the rodeo. It was like three guys like, get on your feet, kid. I'm like, yeah, good. Thanks, village. You know, in Manhattan, they'd be like, take a knee, take a knee, get down. So I like that. I feel like you're doing that right now in Connecticut. It's good, too. It's much more, as I said, mixed ideologically. So that's a step in the right direction. But do think that you know the resilience requires you to every time the challenge comes say thank you yeah great stronger than i'm than i was you know this is another opportunity and you can just can't get from a to b without going through it so it's like you can't sit back and admire somebody's strength or courage or

you know mental toughness and hope it just magically appears you know that's why you really have to thank god for the tough times and the challenges and the assholes who come into your life because they're there for a reason. You know, if you, if you choose to pay attention, they're there for a reason. And by the way, I love that you love Jordan Peterson and Dr. Laura. That's, this is what's brought us together. Dr. Laura always says, just do the right thing, do the right thing. It's so simple, but it it really is you kind of forget that that should be your north star yeah there's nothing wrong with that and again i don't agree with everything jordan peterson says or what everything that dr laura says but i can glean the important things you

know when i go like that last thing. You just said there's a blaspheme that came out of your mouth there about Dr. Laura. You know what I miss is that she doesn't say anymore. I am my kid's mom. That was my favorite. I am my kid's mom. But I guess Derek is like an adult now. Yeah, he's all grown up. She's so funny that I love listening to her because like she's so abrupt, even with the people who absolutely love her. I was just listening to her yesterday and this woman called. She was like, I've got this. You know, what should I do?

I'm kind of still obsessed with my children. And I, you know, I need to live my own life. They're out now. And she's kind of going on and she just will cut you off. Like, get to the point. I love her. It's my favorite. Right. I know. she's like um i asked you the question and if you're not going to answer i'm gonna have to hang up on you madam madam

yeah yeah yeah don't make me ma'am you don't make me oh god i listen to her so much but she's she's not wrong about stuff especially about like family and child rearing and and I feel like these old-school values are very American and my parents are Hungarian immigrants they escaped from communism right in 1969 and they moved to Canada I was born in Canada we came to the US in 1980 and I was always told over and over like America is freedom America is freedom America is freedom and freedom of speech and you can be what you want to be and i like when did it i i still love this country i still believe in this country and it bums me out to hear people poo-pooing capitalism especially people that are

like uh they hate capitalism really did you just tweet that on your cool ass iphone that was unabridged oh literally on a private jet you know i mean that's that's the you know you've got people like i hate to round back to my favorite pair of targets but megan and harry out there in their private jet lecturing the rest of us on the environment and how we're a racist country and the royal family's rate it's like would you shut up from your private jet on your way back to your malibu mansion nobody wants to hear from you. Nobody. And I hate Meghan and Harry, too. And it's like and just because would you even talk shit about your mother in law publicly? Forget that they're royal. Yeah. I mean, how disgusting is that to poop to poop all over your family, your in- husband, was in the hospital dying. One of them's a big racist. I'm not going to tell you who it is.

But poor me, I don't know what title my kid is going to get. Who gives a shit about your kid's title? Nobody. And Princess Kate made me cry. Well, know your audience because everybody loves Princess Kate. So you probably shouldn't divide yourself from her because it's automatically going to be Team Kate, Team Kate. She's just not that smart. course yeah kate toes the line like she knows the gig that she got into which is to be a royal it's a hard gig it's not for everybody

and she's doing a great job of it i think um but i love that interview with megan markle and oprah i mean oprah sunk her teeth into that little girl. I was like, oh, don't you feel like it was kind of. Like Oprah wanted her to look bad. No, just like not want her to look bad. But Oprah was like, oh, I'm going to get into this juicy. Oh, yeah. There's an age difference like, you know. Oh, Oprah knew.

I mean, she knew every single thing that Meghan Markle was going to say. Oprah doesn't go into an interview without having had her team do 25 pre-interviews. So she knew every bit of news that was going to be made and led her to it. You know, like she knew exactly which which buttons to press. And, you know, Harry and Meghan have been one trick ponies for a while, though. It's all complaining about their woke stuff. And like literally the low point was when Harry, Prince Harry, started lecturing us about white supremacy. It's like, do we really need to take a look into the royal family's history, the Mountbatten? Where did the Mountbatten come from in your Mountbatten-Windsor last name? Like, let's not, if you want us to go there, we can go there. But I literally saw the pictures of you with a swastika on your arm. So maybe take a seat on this particular lecture. It was a Halloween costume.

I'm just saying. All right. Let's pause for one second. Do one more break. Come back and have a ton more fun with Christina P. Let's talk about Netflix and how that's gone because i know for many years now i mean you were part of this 2015 movie with all these comedians who narrated it um calling attention to this problem it was called can we take a joke and uh lots of comedians sort of saying can we

you know can we still in 2015 we'll flash forward now you know how many seven years later and it's like worse than ever and Netflix been at the center of it thanks to the blowback against Chappelle and now against Ricky Gervais and I know you've been you've experienced some of that yourself so how was that well Netflix has been fantastic actually and um you're right 2015 I, was the last time you could tell a joke in a club that there was no pushback. People had fun. And then the tide turned and it got really, really tight and really, really scary. And people were getting canceled, losing their careers. And then I think with this last thing with Chappelle, it's been so awesome because they couldn't take him down. And his statement was so great. I don't know if you heard what he said. He's like, number one, I will not be summoned, meaning I will not come talk to the woke people that are upset with me just because like I will not be summoned. You have to watch the special front to back before you can talk to me. And number three, you have to admit that Hannah Gadsby isn't funny. I mean, the greatest. festival and i think comedians are starting to push back i was at the comedy store just doing

spots and you see us i think we're all getting sick of it and i think when they tried to cancel joe rogan that was the last of it it's like really i i know this guy i've known this guy for 15 years he's been nothing but fantastic to everybody to me to black comedians to every comedian to everybody. I think we're getting over it. And I feel the tide is turning. And maybe I'm too optimistic, but. That's exciting.

I think so. You're right. I mean, that would be, I mean, even Netflix sent out that memo saying, we're going to produce for all sorts of people, all sorts of different content. If you can't take it, bye. Absolutely. of different content if you can't take it bye absolutely um i i think i love when um last week you were talking about this this girl that wanted reparations um for she wanted snacks yes and you're like how is this woman going to be a lawyer i mean they're going to tell you that you're stupid and that your ideas are awful um and you've been through so much too. Like, do you think that people can cultivate resilience

or is this something that you're born with? Yes, no, they 100% can cultivate it. I didn't come into the world like this. That's why I feel so strongly about all this stuff. It's like, I have lots of like moms in particular, but also dads will come and say to me like, I really want my, I have my daughter listening to you and I want my daughter to be as strong as you are.

I'm like, that's so easy. You got it. Just get out of her way. Let all the shit that's coming her way, come her way and then be there to be supportive. You know, you can support your child through trauma and certainly, you know, give them some thoughts on how to navigate it, but let them navigate it. And then their confidence builds, even if it doesn't come out perfectly. You know, it's like courage is built. Self-confidence is built, but you can't go from, you know, having none to having a ton overnight. You've got to do all those little baby steps in between. And then, and then you'll take bigger risks and then bigger falls will come your way. And then it'll handle those. And you'll have even more confidence and more, like, just keep getting back up and just keep getting back up, get back up, get back up, get back up. That's like it's not even that complicated.

So I hate safe spaces. They're exactly the opposite. I spoke to Stanford business students recently and I said, run toward the danger. You want to be strong? Run toward the danger and hope something goes wrong. Yes, it's the anti-fragility. What's that book about the anti-fragility thing? Like that's that's how you you get over things is exposure and going over it. I know. Are you in therapy? I think I heard you mentioned I have been for most of my life. I'm not currently because I, you know, moved. But my therapist is a genius and I love him. He got me through so much. And one of his classic lines was, this is after like all this shit had happened at Fox and I was leaving, I was at NBC.

And he said to me, you know, Megan, you don't always have to take the path of most resistance. Now you tell me. But yeah, he's brilliant and really really helped me in fact he's probably the reason why i'm no longer in it because i'm doing pretty well right now and i haven't felt the need you know the urgent need to be there weekly yeah and i know you i mean you talk about your your upbringing a little bit but do you think this was modeled for you you know what my mom did you know what my mom did she's like you she mom did? She's like you. She was funny.

She is funny. She's still around. But like growing up, she would just laugh in our face a lot of the times when we had some stupid problem. Like, I'm not dealing with that. And just walk off. So it's like, oh, okay. There's a funny story that lives in infamy where I had some really important paper due and I got to school and I called her. She was a nurse at the Albany Veterans Hospital.

And I called her. I'm like, Mom, I left my term paper at home. If I don't get that term paper and I'm going to fail this class. And she's like, and I'm like, you got to go home. You got to get me that term paper. You got to bring it to me. I didn't even have a car. I couldn't drive.

She laughed at me and hung up. But that's what you need, right? Like you figure it out. You be responsible. She used to have a sign in my kitchen cupboard that read, lack of planning on your part does not justify an emergency on my part. And I feel like what I'm passing down to my kids is just, I'm too tired to really be that kind of a mom. So I'm not really doing it by design so much as like, I'm just tired. really be that kind of a mom. So I'm not really doing it by design so much as like, I'm just tired. So they're going to have to take care of themselves. Girl, amen. Because my three-year-old is in this phase of wanting to do things for himself

and then wanting me to do it. And so I have to be like, no, no, no, you do it. You get the water. You get your damn water yes um and i heard him explaining how to make hot dogs to my older kid he's like you put the hot dog in the microwave and when it pops it's ready oh close and i'm like that sounds good yep that's what mom taught you um but you know and and i i don't know like i know feelings are important i think feelings are great and you have to have them and you have to process them but that's not all there is and i feel like this era is all about feelings and not enough about action and resilience and kicking ass like listen the boys in the studio saw the new maverick movie the new top gun movie and'm like, you know why it resonates even today? Listen, Maverick loses

his partner, Goose. He loses his girl. But you know what? He still goes up in that plane and he fights the goddamn Russians and he kills those goddamn Russians. And that's, you know what I mean? Like that's America. That's America, Jack. And he's still hot. He's still hot. He looks amazing. What is he doing? He has definitely had work done.

Tom Cruise. Yeah. Have you looked at like the Where Are They Now rundown of all the stars who were in the original Top Gun? It didn't end that well for everyone. That's all I'll say. Tom Cruise looks amazing whatever he's doing it's working well you know what i love is that kelly mcgillis they interviewed

her and they asked her if she was upset that she wasn't asked to do the new movie and she's like well no i'm old and fat and that would be ridiculous good for her yeah that's what i thought it's like she's she's in an industry where like you're not allowed to get old and you're not allowed to gain weight. You know, you're just, it's not allowed. It's not permitted. So like truly good for her. I saw an article about Melissa Gilbert recently, who I loved on Little House on the Prairie

growing up. One of my dreams, like NBC wasn't all bad. And one of the good things about it was I got to interview her and Nellie, Alison Arngrim. Yes. That bitch. It was awesome. Right. The bitch.

She was the funniest. She's a comedian. She's so funny. Anyway, Melissa Gilbert has now just exited stage left because she's sick of dealing with the bullshit and like having to stick your face full of poison. And she's in some like sort of, you know, I don't know, that cabin in like the Adirondacks now with her husband, Timothy Busfield, who's of Hollywood as well. And I'm like, good for her. I bet it's I mean, I can feel it in news, but not to the extent these

Hollywood actresses get it. No, I can't even imagine. I mean, it's too much. I think like, especially with comedy, the good news is the older, the fatter, the more inappropriate you are, the longer your career is going to last. And, you know, when I was a young comedian, I've been doing this for 20 years. And I started when nobody wanted to hear women say a goddamn thing. So I would go up and I would do every gig. I mean, I did. I did gentlemen's clubs. I did Afghanistan just to get stage time. Wow. And I, yeah, I mean, look, I'm, I'm very pro troops. I entertain. I loved, I won't do it now because I have children, but I did a lot of stuff. I went to Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Bahrain,

Dubai, you name it. Oh, that's awesome. Yeah. It was so, it was life changing. And, and especially to come back as a civilian and see people complaining about everyday life and you're like, no. Yes. Get out of there. That's exactly right. So I think that's great you did all that.

I had no idea. It must have been tough. I mean, we had like Joan Rivers, but you didn't have that many role models to sort of show you how it's done. I didn't, but you know what's funny and I know that representation is a big thing right now and I think it's cool. It's great. I didn't, but you know, it's funny. And I, and I know that representation is a big thing right now and I'm, I think it's cool. It's great. I didn't care. I, my heroes could be male, female, they could be cartoons, they could be whatever. I identified with the spirit of what they were doing. So yeah, there weren't many role models, but so what?

Were you always funny? Were you always funny were you always funny like you came out of the womb that way i don't know i think i was always mischievous i think i wanted to shit mix like kind of like you i imagine you have a similar thing where like i don't know what it is but i'm gonna mix shit up and i loved filthy jokes and i would memorize truly tasteless joke books i don't know if you remember those from the 80s my dad had them in the bathroom and I would memorize truly tasteless joke books. I don't know if you remember those from the 80s. My dad had them in the bathroom and I would memorize them. I didn't even understand the references or what was what, but I loved telling them at the lunch tables at school and making people laugh.

And there's some subversion in it. I think it's rebellion. I think I was getting back at somebody, mommy, daddy. I don't know. But my first 20 years were spent telling jokes to men in the front row whose arms were folded and that was great in a way because like i had to win them over and get really good at what i what i do and then now these younger boys because they grow up on podcasts and they grow up watching people like you and me talk it's normal and it's so much

easier and thank god for that so i guess that's good stuff forgive me but i have to ask do you watch mrs mazel i did yeah the first season and then when i was like what this bitch is friends with lenny bruce and now she's on private jets like it to me i get like oh that's not how the comedy business works yeah like you don't go from like open mics to private jets years i'm sure that's true i liked it like i like the sets and I love Tony Shalhoub. He's so great too. But I didn't find her jokes funny. She's like, I listen to you. I laugh out loud every two seconds. I never laughed out loud at her jokes. How did this make it on TV? I'll tell you why, Megyn Kelly. I'll tell you why. Because kelly i'll tell you why because tv writers don't do live audiences

stand-up comedians are the goddamn marines of show business we're the front we go we go up you know what i'm saying like they call comedy writers indoor cats because they've never been out into the wild so comedic actors are different than stand-ups. You put me in any city and any place and I can make people laugh. That's the difference between it. What a gift. And do you see any signs of comedic genius in your kids since they're the children of two comedians? They've got double the trouble there? Yeah, so my three-year-old insists on us calling him.

We can't call him Julian, which is his birth name that we gave him. We have to call him sir or teacher did your kids invent names for themselves i'm always like are my kids mental patients are they psychos my husband for a while was going through like we watched some i don't know some some like period piece where he was like i would like to be referred to as your royal highness or something i can't remember what it was like keep dreaming duggar okay we'll work on that or whenever he watches any sort of a period piece he slips into that kind of talk you know for a while or oh no the best is ten commandments well every we watch ten commandments every year around easter and and for like a week i'll hear doug with like you bring a warm smile with your cool water.

What's going on? You're not Moses. I love period piece things. I'm big into the Tudors. Me too. Wait, the Tudors though, is that the one? Trying to think. Yes, not the follow-up, which wasn't as good.

The Tudors was good. Who stars in that? Well. It was a while ago. So Henry Cavill is in there, and he's the hottest man on the planet. He's very attractive. And then for Henry, they chose the faiest, most effeminate actor. Look him up, Nadav.

What's his name? He's really great. He's a British guy, but he's like very fae. It came out a while ago, right? Are we talking about the same? The Tudors. It was a while ago.

And then they wrote another one that wasn't as popular. Who is that guy? Why is it not coming to me? Say it to me, Nadav. Jonathan Rhys-Myers. Yes. Yes. Thank you, Steve Krakauer.

But he's still, he's hot. He was hot, but there was a lot of like yeah there was a lot like jerking off into the towel i didn't need like they went places where i was like i don't need to know henry this well i know they always start those cable shows with like sex in the opening like i don't i don't know doing i'm not obviously if you're into the medieval thing like is it is it a dick thing you need the top i don't know yeah i don't know either but i think were there like some gay love scenes with him where i was like i don't remember reading about this is this a woke thing do we need everyone to be gay or okay my my favorite was halston have you seen halston no is that worthwhile yeah

so i watched it when i broke my ankle last year and that i i loved it and um but yeah there was a lot of gratuitous um scenes of homosexual sex and i'm like do we really need to do we really but it inspired me to buy those big black sunglasses. I wore those for a year. So that was worth it. I do love that Halston style. I have to say it's so classic and elegant. It makes you feel like you want to feel.

All right. Now, forget that, though. Don't watch Tudors and don't watch Halston. You got to watch Christina. Check out her Netflix special. You're doing something with Amy Schumer. It's not with Amy Schumer. It's kind of mocking Amy Schumer. What's the name of that? no no it is amy so so she hosted i couldn't tell from the

name no she's sweet it's uh it's uh amy schumer's parental advisory so it's like a few comics talking about parenting it's it's quite lovely and it's going to come out i think this weekend okay so we do like that good good okay good. Okay. It wasn't clear. She's great. I loved talking to you. I would love to have you back anytime, Christina. All the best to you. Good luck with it. You can buy her baby merch too at ymhstudios.com. Help support her so she can keep us laughing. Thank you.

You bet. That was so fun. Still laughing. Her clips, her special is so good. And she's amazing, right? That was fun to talk to her. I don't even know what I said. I think I might delete this episode. I'm not sure. Oh, wait, it already aired live. We covered the whole landscape. In any event, if you want to hear more fun talks, don't forget to go back to episode 321 if you want all that weight loss information and just a healthier way of living so you too can be bloat free in the evening. Think of the dream, my friends. It's real. It can happen.
