Chris Franjola, Rosie’s Kimmel Feud, Phoebe Gates Facing Prison? and Howie Mandel’s Viral Drama
Chris Franjola and I are kicking things off by reminiscing about the absolute worst local TV news appearances we’ve ever endured while out on the road doing stand-up! Then, we dive straight into the wild headlines: Bill Gates’ daughter, Phoebe, is facing serious federal fraud allegations and potential prison time over her startup’s controversial practices, and Rosie O’Donnell is getting major heat from famous friends who felt snubbed during her hosting gig on Jimmy Kimmel Live. Plus, I’m breaking down why I hope Alex Earle’s new show finally exposes all the juicy dirt on her stepmother, and we look back at our old-school spoof of Chris Hansen’s To Catch a Predator now that his new movie is officially out. We also ponder what’s next for Prince Harry and Meghan, including my bold prediction for Harry and William if he ever returns to England, and debate whether Howie Mandel was actually being gross or if it was just a masterclass in viral clickbait for his podcast. Later, I fill Chris in on the disturbing Lindsay Clancy case and the viral theories surrounding it, before we explore the tragic loss of Hayden Panettiere and its unexpected connection to a former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills figure. Finally, we end the episode dying of laughter as we look back at the most outrageous and wildly inappropriate movies from 25 years ago that could never be made today! Enjoy!
