Hello and welcome to your summer Friday edition of the nerve troublemakers as...

I'm on heavy medication and we powered through earlier this week with two original nerves

but for today Marlene insisted she was like get down on that sofa and do not move I will put together a compilation episode for the troublemakers we did one last week last Friday and you guys really loved it so we take the encouragement and thank you all again for being so understand and encouraging me to take a break Marlene tells me that it was a real Sophie's choice of what offenders choose select for today's compilation it's she hasn't even told me it's top secret to me but also by the way I

wonder Marlene if you've ever seen Sophie's choice because I think she only has to choose between one of two children

and out in the wood shed we've got bodies on top of bodies out there I mean we do have to fire up the wood shipper now some people are just going to have to have the ultimate judgment passed upon them that said we also have a brand new mini dropping tomorrow we have a nerve favorite guest coming back we taped this again earlier in the week while my voice was still okay you know we're doing what we can we're hoping that next week we're back and firing on all cylinders we shall see we shall see

for today though we are thrilled to bring you Marlene's latest masterpiece the nerves

morning show mash up and so we ask are you ready are you ready let's go

most of us would rather do almost anything than shop for life insurance we tell ourselves we'll get around to it next week next month next year stop deluding yourself you'll handle it later take care of it today with select quote in 15 minutes you could have coverage that fits your life and your budget select quote has their licensed insurance agents working for you not an insurance company they compare options across multiple carriers to find the right coverage at the lowest price and they've been

doing this for nearly 40 years they have helped more than two million people find coverage

whether it's high blood pressure diabetes heart disease there are agents know which carriers are most likely to work with your

situation and if you're healthy you may even qualify for same day coverage with no medical exam get the right life insurance for you for less at select quote dot com slash marine that select quote dot com slash marine today to get started April first again with this were an epic able fool's joke the ladies of the view and um filling in for Alyssa who's the token conservative like conservative you know on that panel is a Whitney Cummings who I find like a pretty disturbed person

and really not funny uh so she's sitting in that chair um what be is going to uh offer the first opinion

about uh tigers latest d y in which he rolled his SUV he rolled a car for the second time um that he hasn't killed somebody by now is nothing short of a miracle all I can think when I see that rolled over SUV is what if a little kid had been out on the street like riding their bike what if what be let's hear from the brain truss known as what be fucking goldburg here we go some media personalities like Dave Portnoy I don't know who that is uh are not police hashton

take a look I have no sympathy for the guy what is he do I don't know anybody who has ever rolled a car over this guy rolls it over every two weeks so you know what put him behind bars put him in jail for a little bit make him wake up get a driver gonna kill somebody you're gonna kill somebody innocent that's true you know tigers and friend of mine and I wish him look at the best I don't like kicking a man when he's down yeah uh so what be says I don't know

who Dave Portnoy is that is not a flex what be Dave Portnoy is a very culturally relevant person

I am hardly a major sports fan but I know who Dave Portnoy is Dave Portnoy is...

than you are he is a lot more of an important presence in the media landscape than you are

oh tigers a friend of mine I don't give a fuck I don't give a fuck how many famous people you know

who you're gonna carry water for I don't like kicking a man when he's down well then I guess we

should just send nobody to prison ever because they're down that's basically what passes for

brain activity in what be Goldberg's head Whitney is going to pick up that baton and trot out the very well the much overheated talking point about tiger needing a pass because he didn't have a childhood here we go I'm a new mom and I you know feel like I want to make my child this over a chiever who has a scale but you know his dad you know had him putting on tv at two and he didn't talk him energy about him was fast you didn't get to have a childhood you know

and I see this so much I'm sure you know all of you have where if you didn't have a childhood you're gonna have to have it at some points you know funny kid actors who didn't have a childhood and don't become drunk drunk drivers name one I mean good for joy Bay Har I often you know like it's like she's the only one who's like what are you talking about like working as a child and not having a traditional childhood should it give you free reign to drive drunk you know

you know how many of you I've heard from who say I I lost somebody to a drunk driver you know okay here comes our America's preeminent race hustler Sunny Austin who has filled the star Jones chair remember when star Jones used to be played by Tracy Morgan on SNL and Tracy Morgan

at that table in drag would always be like my name is star Jones and I am a lawyer

Sunny is always like as a former federal prosecutor we know Sunny we know but she's going to talk about well this is her she's taken the talking point from team tiger which has been pumped into the cultural water supply and offers this holy unoriginal thought while also minimizing the danger of someone being on drugs on what yeah what tiger called narcos behind the wheel here we go yeah he's not a drunk driver but what I will say this is they found some hydrocodone in his

pocket he's had 20 surgeries so he lives with back pain and and I think you know we talk about

the opioid crisis in this country with such empathy and when it comes to textbooks for some reason we don't seem to have that empathy for him I'm not excusing I'm not excusing the fact that he was driving while under the influence you are I think we need to show someone who is a sports legend who may have been pushed very hard as a child and have some grace for the pain that he's living with and the fact that as an athlete he is now having to struggle with the fact that he may have to

give up the one thing that he loves to do you know what it's called being a fucking grown-up okay the guy has more resources than most people ever would have access to I don't care about his pain I care that he may take the life of an innocent person or persons because this guy at 50 years old cannot get his shit together and trust trust you me when I tell you that if this had been a white athlete who had been in his fourth serious car crash under the influence second one

rolling the car Sunday would be shouting white privilege all day long incomes the useless Sarah Haynes Sarah who's the nice one from the Midwest who's constant refrains no matter the topic are on the one hand there's this and on the other hand there's this she is as dull as a

butter knife I don't know why she's at that table and she's also going to read from she's always

the one that producers are handing cards to saying read off these data points here we go he is getting a treatment he needs because whenever I see you already put that guilty by

them whenever I see them I see such sadness in his eyes like I again I know how important

to do not drink under the influence almost did you found no alcohol in your right but what be it's enough it drugs an alcohol that they're both bad driving high out of his mind flipping a two in the afternoon get the fuck out of here here come the here come the data points

Here we go I know that 54% of drivers tested positive for alcohol drugs in se...

serious crashes so people die every day that is very serious I think tiger woods has

been in a lot of pain for a long time and I don't mean just physically so I really hope he gets

what he needs to find some ways what about the rest of us law biding citizens out here who don't want our lives in jeopardy because this rich asshole is constantly getting a past tiger is not sorry I will talk go back and look at his presser we played some of it on a very recent nerve one that we aired this week he's not sorry he's sorry he got caught he's sorry now he's got to do all this shit to act like he's sorry he's not sorry here's joy talking some real

talk like some actual sense here we go no one had very rich he should get a driver just not just

intimidated but I do want to say that he told he did test as would be just said negative for alcohol but he did tell investigators that he had had he took prescription medication and informed them that he's had seven back surgeries and over 20 operations on his leg and he's living with severe chronic pain then don't drive if you have such severe chronic pain sorry you did it to yourself you stayed in the game way too long if you have such severe chronic pain

don't fucking drive if you want to be off your face on opioids all day long have at it

don't fucking drive and all those hardens at that table except for joy bayhar got their talking point oh he wasn't drunk oh he wasn't drunk they're trying to make this a high class problem he's a junkie just my opinion he's a junkie joy again questions why can't this guy hire a fucking driver here we go tell him why can't he get a driver I'll tell you he's rich well just you know my it's nice to have a driver but it's also you you don't want to be that guy

this is well why see always dry being driven around driving you know you you can't win yeah

yeah that's a lead instant oh that's a leadest you know that face would be makes that like she goes in she's like you know I'm gonna have to do it I'm gonna have to risk talking about the

perils of being a really rich famous woman that we all be a woman oh who rather we all made rich and

famous oh oh you know you don't you don't want to be that person like why is that person always being driven around you know we live in an Uber economy at all of us get driven around what be it just depends what like level of vehicle we're getting driven around in and by the way we all know people who are like I'm gonna go out and party and so I'm getting an Uber or I'm hiring a car service what the fuck is she talking about it's a leadest it's a leadest you're going to set yourself

apart um Tiger Woods has been set apart from the rest of us for the bulk of his natural life okay that's just how it is we're all cool with it we expect a guy at that level to be chauffeur around to have a security team to move throughout the world in ways the rest of us don't need to or have to for multiple reasons so we're good out here we're okay we're totally cool and by the way what be why don't you tell your audience how it is you get to work every day at the ABC studios

she lives in New Jersey you think she's getting in her car and driving herself to work and driving she's not she's got a driver but I guess that would be to a leadest for what be to admit she's talking out of both sides of her mouth she's an embarrassment this show is an embarrassment I mean I'm not saying anything new here but as we continue to surgically take it apart which we will I mean ABC really needs to remove the view from the news division ABC the view is

considered news the view is considered news just consider it entertainment just consider it entertainment so they can spot their name uninformed bullshit with such confidence all day long Chanel Jones the charisma vacuum over at the today show who like just when you think she can't say anything more obvious and boring and completely like just like something anybody would know she does it she says it she's just I don't understand how she has this job she is one half of the

brain trust known as Jenna and Chanel the fourth hour of today you know the other co-host is Neppo baby Jenna Bush Hager daughter of a former United States president and anyway before we get into Chanel's new book called through mom's eyes and Marlene has said to me today did you read the

Book and I said I read two pages and that's all I need to read I know the res...

shit book before we get into it first we have got to play because it never gets old I can never

every time I see this thing I laugh out loud I laugh out loud it's like cable access opening credits and like a cable access opening theme this is the this is the legitimate true I I hear from you guys all the time like that can't be real like you guys like made that together like you made that with AI right no no no no no no this is the money and effort NBC has put into the fourth hour of today known as Jenna and Chanel watch it you're gonna die here we go

yeah we got it yeah we're shining today from the heart of New York City it looks like day she looks in the star doctor Sandra Lee a lot of winners simple popper she does look like a kid right like that that that sort of kid who's like like on the verge of like really being cognitively impaired but like not so much that they won't be able to get like a low level job in adulthood and support

themselves but like they're always happy because they're simple like they're just like that's

what Chanel is she's just like you know okay here she is being interviewed for far too long we sliced it and diced it by extra TV at her book launch party I'm telling you someone else wrote this I'm just telling you I wish I mean compiled interviews that were pre-existing probably she's my opinion okay this was on April 15th tax day oh my god she got on TV that morning by the way and um Jenna was like oh my god it's tax day like like Jenna's so wealthy you know she's

didn't have to think about tax day somebody else is doing those taxes okay and then Chanel goes oh yeah

I guess happy tax extension day which to me is almost adjacent to James Brolin I will never forget

reading this was once doing a radio show years after September 11th and the host said to him oh James by the way today is September 11th do you have anything you'd like to say to the audience you know it's a big day and he goes oh yeah happy September 11th that's Chanel you know that's Chanel okay now she's she's asked about being present and I'm gonna get to that in one second um because she has this story that's like you're not gonna believe but um I just want to read a little bit I just

just a tiny bit from this book okay I didn't tell Marlene I was gonna do this because you know I wanted to surprise her um she writes her intro is called welcome to the mom village again I weep for West become a book publishing uh she writes in her third paragraph we love our moms now I wrote in my book do we do we all there are plenty of people who do not love their mothers

and with good reason and I think that's something that she would discuss and we shouldn't have a

brain dead morning show host writing Pablo and like this we all love our moms no Chanel not

everybody loves their mother there are plenty of abusive neglectful hateful women who never

should have had children there are plenty of women who are addicts who are mothers or who are married to men who abuse them and their children and allow it and look the other way I point I point you to Alice Monroe who was considered one of the greatest writers of the modern age and who who's writing I love I love it but it cannot look at Alice Monroe the same way again and I haven't picked up one of her books and forever do you know why after she died one of her

daughters came forward and said my mother's second husband sexually abused me for my entire childhood in teenage years and my mother knew and she never did a thing about it because she was a

afraid of him leaving her he was more important to her than I was and she told Alice Monroe's

biographer this this biographer was male and he decided not to include it in her in the biography he wrote a Alice Monroe because he didn't think it was relevant now Chanel goes not that and Chanel knows who Alice fucking Monroe is you know I'm saying Chanel writes because she's a writer now she's published author it's super inspiring and also just a bit terrifying you know see it here what I mean

When you think about the magnitude of this gift of motherhood again not every...

mother regards being a mother as a gift just ask coda just ask coda she then goes on to say that she

decided that she was going to interview the mothers of famous and successful people to figure out how they got that way Chanel the question is why are there so many people who are so intent on getting validation from strangers every minute of everyday look no further again than one mega markle it's because there is a deep childhood wound they didn't get enough hugs they didn't get enough parental

attention and love and the only thing that they think is going to fill that black hole is fame

not all famous people but a fair amount okay a fair amount and you know she goes so I'm going to ask you know Matthew McConaughey's mother you know it's like Matthew McConaughey recently said he cut his mother

out of his life for a good ten years because she could never shut the fuck up about him she was just

giving interviews to anybody who asked because she loved his refracted fame she was getting a vicarious hit of it and he was like mom stopped telling my secrets to the media and she wouldn't listen and so you know what I'm saying this is a simple ten being propped up by the media okay now she's going to talk about being extra present as a mommy is garbage language that means nothing if you're a mother and you're raising children being present should be baked into the job

description but here we go here we go okay so you set out to see some of the wisdom that mothers

who raised successful children have had what did you learn oh that's a good one I think there's

is it that's the whole comes to your book dummy it sounds kind of woo woo but it's really true like I was thinking about there's a story where Lady Gaga was like little like banging on the piano you know some moms will be like oh my god if you don't stop if you don't you know you know to me but she was like you you've got something there you know gashnell because Lady Gaga is a genius she is empirically undeniably talented a parent can look at that child and go that kid's got something

that kid's gonna put me in the four seasons of nursing homes if I just play my cards right idiot fuck winds everywhere with summer at full blast we are all looking for lighter fabrics

with Jenna and Chanel now again this is a morning chat show meant to ease you into your day what are we begin talking about Chanel and her grief this is becoming her brand Chanel doesn't really have anything to say I mean really and we're going to revisit something that we aired a couple of episodes ago but she recently did Anderson Cooper's podcast now Anderson Cooper has a podcast that's all

About grief it's called all there is and you know I know he's had a lot of lo...

his brother committed suicide his father died when he was young his mother died fairly recently

she lived to a ripe old age and and I I I ask this question in a very genuine

open-hearted way like I'm I'm not trying to be flip about it I don't know that it's healthy to perseverate on grief I don't know I don't think that it would be necessarily healthy to to swim in that at least you know once a week with other you know it's it's it's that's a tricky business it's a tricky business anyway Chanel went on to talk about you know her husband died about a year ago

of cancer and they have two children and she tells Jenna now again this is our real talk

about fake people because there is a gulf between what Chanel is going to tell us she's all about and what Chanel tells us she actually does in her actual life okay

Chanel wants to be America's point person for grief

even though it's very difficult for her to talk about she went over to Anderson's podcast to talk about it on in a very public forum for one reason and I'll bet you troublemakers can guess the ostensible reason here we go you know if I can just maybe help one person I got a call and I didn't listen to it until this weekend I got a call from one of my best friends in life okay so Chanel says the reason she did Anderson Cooper's podcast even though she says to Jenna

right before that I really don't like talking about it I don't like talking about it but I'm gonna I'm gonna talk about it here with you and I'm gonna use it to help sell my book and I'm going on to Anderson's podcast because Anderson's super famous and he's super he's got a lot of credibility in the new space you know he's smart guy she wants to be seen a smart so I toppled over there now she says even though I don't like to talk about it

I talked about it because if I could just help one person if I could just help one person well there is one person in Chanel's actual life her best friend she says of many many many many many years who called her and Chanel knows the reason we're gonna get to it in this next clip but you know let that voicemail sit all week let me tell you if my best friend was grieving and left me a voicemail I would call her back immediately it wouldn't sit there for a week but

Chanel had other shit to do Chanel had to go talk to Anderson first then she could get back to her best friend of many many years here we go she lost her grandmother and her mom lost her mom obviously and she called my god that's right tell you about three o'clock this morning

and my mom who was never listened to a podcast today in her life was listening to the podcast

and she said please sell Chanel that that just really helped oh that's so beautiful as she cried about it and I cried about it and I thought okay that is why you did it I share yeah yeah it's not easy for me well should we look no it's not yeah but let if we can let's look a clip of this conversation why why couldn't we if we can why couldn't we she goes it's not easy for me I would love to get Mark Bowden on that little clip and we will in a future date

possibly now when I tell you it's all a full circle here at the nerve we are moving the culture this dim bulb is going to tell us on Anderson's pod how it is she came to realize that her late husband has materialized in her life and this should remind you of somebody that the nerve has has wood shedted more than once here we go. I was sitting on a beach in Jamaica and my girlfriend

was like it's okay to cry I think it was the first time I had just like really let it go and I just

said where are you like where are you like are you okay like where are you and all of a sudden and we are in the middle of the ocean and it was like this rock and we took a picture of it and here comes this yucky yellow butterfly and we both went okay there was a guest on the today show who we will get to who was on the today show because he is currently sleeping with an alist actress no other reason I promise you that just my opinion but it's well founded this is you know any of of of us who have

Lost a loved one a close loved one we go through this and you know sometimes ...

signs and you'll think that's a sign other times you'll think as I have sometimes oh that's just

pattern recognition like our brains are wired to seek out patterns and for those patterns to be

imbued with meaning that help to make sense of a senseless existence but you know Chanel is very wedded to this idea no pun intended she's very invested in this idea that her husband is not just that yellow butterfly but all the yellow butterfly's that she's she's seeing them all here we go here we go and then it and she was like is that you uj and that's it oh my god not stop it and she's like no just if it's you or if it's like anything that Chanel needs to know like just let her know that you're okay

can you come back as in the butterfly is not coming back and sure and I'm just like oh my god

oh my gosh how beautiful is that and now you see them all the time do you remember when the time when we were in Jamaica yes and I told you guys and I told the viewers and I remember Jin and I we were just talking and then we heard the audience go you know and there it was and remember when we were also on that tramp oh my gosh and there were yellow butterfly yeah she really likes going to to evoke butterflies which are soundless why do I bother why do I

bother um I think this may be where Chanel got the idea in the first place this is a one on one

and as we just saw at the top Damian Kurt Damian oh my god why am I blanking on his name Damian Marlena Marlena just yelled at me she's like Louis Damian Louis who is an accomplished actor did not get a one on one he had to sit with three of those numb skulls okay but Jim Curtis the self-appointed self-help guru the manifesto he used to work in finance I think then he was like fuck this I'm just gonna show my bullshit for like fun and profit I'm gonna tell people

that they should look for yellow butterflies he was promoting his new book which I bought it's like a pamphlet okay the book of possibility talk about a meaningless title what does that mean what is that possibility is baked into being human here's Craig my favorite part of this clip is watching and listening to Craig listening to Craig's whether listening to Craig whether he's honor offscreen and then watching his facial expressions because his face will fall more than once

during the segment he cannot believe he has been conscripted to talk to this guy Craig is the big cheese over at the today show okay especially when Savannah was absent he was the big cheese and he's like I got to talk to this asshole just because he's fucking Jennifer Aniston here we go last but not least the yellow fly manifestation the yellow butterfly manifestation I challenge most of the people that work with them my groups this is an easy one to start with

the yellow butterfly manifestations challenge or subconscious mind to find a yellow butterfly so

at night before bed right on a piece of paper remember to see yellow butterflies put it on your

bedside table when you wake up in the morning say I'm so grateful for all the yellow butterflies that I'm gonna see today and in the middle of the day say I wonder where these yellow butterflies are and then let us know let me know when you start to see him everywhere in your life what is that word correct don't ask a logical question of an illogical mind that is using rampant huxterism you would think these people would be embarrassed to be engaging with the likes of this

bullshit it's total horseshit now gym is going to use a fancy word and he's gonna start speaking really fast and this is designed to cover over all the bullshit it's not supposed to make sense but it's supposed to make you the recipient of this garbage think I'm not smart enough to keep up with this what's a particular or regular system here we go it's because we're training our particular actoring system we're training we're telling our subconscious mind to go out and find the

yellow butterfly right and sometimes it's people will say to me well I'm in Scandinavia and it's winter

I'll never see it yellow butterfly as they well you're kind of attached to how you'll see it right

be flexible maybe you're fall photograph maybe all of a sudden you see it on a paper cup hey at least you said all of a sudden and not all of the sudden another cultural offender top one here at the nerve of bros clotsonic life partner gale king

The the the the New York Post had a great report last Friday CBS wake up call...

of the president of CBS news is under fire because CBS mornings had its lowest rated week ever a bore headline gale king is clueless I love this quote she still thinks everyone wants or you've got this amazing amazing quote that gale walks into booking meetings still like she's

Oprah with a coffee month the problem is that everyone's noticed the ratings because that's

their business it's the money dummy it's a money you don't sit down with your favorite person you sit down with the show that's gonna sell the most record you sit down with the show that's gonna sell the most books and the CBS morning show is really really underwater that numbers have never been this bad and so why bother to get dressed and up early and hair and makeup and go do a show if you're not gonna promote anything get the moment I looked at their upcoming schedule

it's all CBS stars who are being blackmailed into it's just their own so they're not getting any major talents now and if they are getting them they appear to be at junkets they don't appear to be coming into the studio anymore those morning shows you don't visit them to hang out with your friends you go there to sell something when you're in the green room everybody's selling something including me and you when we go on the shows we're selling books or trying to get more

people to watch our podcasts and stuff and so everybody there is for sale something and once it stops selling you stop going we're not friends we're not family we don't hang out it's it's a transaction and Gayle doesn't get that Gayle thinks everybody's there for Gayle that they just like me and so that's not true and it's gonna be a really really bit of pill when she looks around and sees she got no one to talk to without guests those shows those two anonymous guys

were on the show with her who I couldn't pick out of a lineup you know what's about a time landing a morning show hosting gig that was a really common in just job I mean you're living like Jennifer Aniston in the morning show right in a 16 room pen house with a park views this is not that you know and it does beg the question why get yourself she's like 67 why get up at 3 a.m.

every morning is does she need this kind of an ego she does she needs this hit and that's why

when it goes away they all fall apart that's why they you know Steven Colbert is going through

withdrawal we've talked about it on your hands saying never think it's gonna end they never they

never think a producer of mine when when I had my morning show said to me it was the greatest advice it was like trying to enjoy every day because it will end and when it doesn't you will miss it and he was absolutely right and so days when I'm a little bit grumpy days days when I don't really want to do an interview or stuff I remind myself I don't I don't have to do this I get to do it and Gayle needs to so right Gayle needs to get there she's forgot about that and in Gayle's defense

the media treat her like she is a worthy competitor to Robin Roberts and Savannah they treat the three of them in the same sentence and I wouldn't I just wouldn't I'd rather have the herster

fox and friends like it's just that Gayle's in a different category and I think that she doesn't

believe it and I think we're press not you and I but but but certain members of the press have led her down that path like they treat her like a celebrity she was at Jay Z's concert backstage she goes to every event in New York I don't think this is a good look for a morning talk show host she's supposed to be relating to the average American as they get ready for a job they probably hate I think this is one of Gayle's big problem stops swanning around at the Bezos Sanchez wedding

tying Oprah's shoelaces I mean I know you got that scrubbed open it but that's exactly it and you know it also reminds me what you're saying and it's so wise I knew somebody wants fairly well who had worked at like a major major outlet for years and and and because this person worked at this outlet had access to some to like every every night club in New York City every every back room VIP room could get any almost anybody on the phone left that job under

circumstances I am unclear as to why but literally did say to me about a month later and I thought this person fully knew this having been in the media the media world in New York City forever

said to me I never realized that it wasn't me that they really liked that it was the job

that it was transactional and that's why they had me at these parties and I just thought to myself

you cannot be this naive like you have to do it yourself into thinking that you have to really want to believe that you know it's not true but you have to really convince yourself that's like telling me I look like Brad Pitt like I'm really have to believe that like that isn't something that I just love more of like a call on first you're like a call in the first you know many

Trouble makers have questions on you Rob.

Dale has deleted herself and if I'm probably free with my best friend I think I might

delete myself too because she goes everywhere with Oprah what she doesn't really seem to remember

is she wasn't invited to sit front row at the Gucci show Oprah was. No and if Oprah decides to assume segments remains it's a statement who's getting treated that way not you gal. A lot of skincare brands promise you the impossible one skin takes a completely different approach rather than just trying to cover up visible signs of aging one skin is focused on what's actually happening beneath your skin's surface that's just one of the reasons to incorporate it

into your routine. One skin was founded by four PhD loan jeopardy scientists they weren't trying

We tore our new inhabitants of the wood shed sunny Austin welcome sunny welcome you are not going to be as comfortable in the wood shed as you are holding your nose in the air at your seat at the table at the view you are not that is by design

you are meant to be rehabilitated in the wood shed can that happen we don't know but we got more body camp footage so sunny in case you're unfamiliar with sunny Austin and the view the view is a long standing morning chat show and which five women of different generations and life experiences sit at the table and discuss the issues of the day ostensibly I mean the the mental wattage is like you know what I'm saying and the the UK had a version of it called loose women

I don't know if that show is still on anymore but sunny loves to sit there she's taken to she's clearly on a GLP one and that has definitely like opt herself regard like insofarably as she likes to sit there most often in like a very high pony and her her nose is often literally

like in the air as she's addressing she and when she's speaking to her co-host she often never

looks them in the eye like she won't like if imagine I have two people on either side of me and one has said something and I'm responding to it imagine I just go like this the whole time and then I look down and then I look at the camera or at the audience but I never engage with the conversation happening with me which is the very premise of the show okay imagine the insufferability the self regard the sheer self regard now sunny I'm going to set the table

just a little bit more is I call sunny one of America's premier race hustlers okay if sunny can make anything about race she will make it about race in sunny's world America's like the worst country on the planet this by the way is a woman who by her own self report grew up in poverty as the

child of teenage parents in the projects I believe in the South Bronx and has made it to fame

and fortune as a media star in America just based on the meritocracy but America's the fucking worst and she also loves to say that no one is above the law no one is above the law now here's a little bit from the body camp footage we begin this is her son Gabriel who's a 24-year-old man 24-year-old man this body camp footage was released on Friday July 17th and note what sunny says here here we go

He has brought you back for a second tell them your mother is a federal prose...

she is not a federal prosecutor she is a former federal prosecutor and that matters because she is

misrepresenting herself to police as an officer of the court which by the way should have zero standing

during this interaction with law enforcement zero fucking standing in America it doesn't fucking matter who you are if someone's breaking the law if your spawn is breaking the law he's breaking the law he doesn't get out of breaking the law because you you're misrepresenting yourself I am tell them she is here's a little here's a little sunny on the view talking about how she

regards the application of the law in the United States of America here we go I mean you can't

commit so many crimes and think that you are above the law even if you are the president okay that's it that's great and you notice in that clip like she's doing exactly what I was describing the nose in the air the nose in the air you would think each of those women has a dedicated producer okay whose job it is not just to brief them and you know prep them for any given day show or the next day show but if you have a producer who is not only really good but actually

cares about you who you have a good relationship with like if I was pulling something like that

Marlena would like grab me by the scruff of the neck and say stop doing that you look like an asshole what are you doing

look at yourself I think Sunny's producer might fucking hate her I do

back to the body cam footage the cops are cuffing Gabriel this is an extremely calm polite interaction uh and Gabriel says let's get my mom on the phone again this is a 24 year old here we go just keep everything above board I am going to write you what's holding a parents take it well you do have to say I feel so smugg I'll explain all the details and why it's okay let's get my mom of course here hey mom hey I'm so he said that I got my phone absolutely

uh and it's in it the phone dies can I recall it's absolutely it's normally in it's normally a misdemeanor obviously we're cutting it down to the violation because he listen he's uh

there's nothing on his record he's been very cooperative with us but as of right now we will have

to issue him the appearance take it officer is that for me this is a kid that doesn't do anything he's a horrible graduate and a Yale researcher he teaches geometry for the cops I understand that it absolutely is necessary mostly see okay so on the phone she says is it necessary this is a kid who's a Harvard graduate I thought the law applied to everybody he teaches geometry redacted I don't know why are the words two fourth graders in the south

Bronx why that's redacted I got no fucking idea unless it's to protect sunny for trying to get her son out of this what turns out to be a citation not in arrest a citation by usually on the backs of of of poor under privileged children then sunny arrives on the scene she shows up the officer again explains to sunny that they are giving her son a break as it is watch watch watch how indignancy is if you are just listening to this I've got to employ you to watch it because

this is who these people are her job is to be into America's breakfast tables and living rooms every weekday morning and talk to people relate like just my opinion right here's my opinion here's where I come from who I am she refuses often to look this officer who's apologizing to her for enforcing the law and giving her kid a break she won't even look at him in the fucking eye here we go hi miss how are you I'm off to go miss no no problem I apologize for this but

you know it's like I explained to you normally it's a misdemeanor charge we're done at the down to a violation okay I know your upset we just do is a deterrence because again like I

Spent you on on the phone besides being a legal which is far from the subject...

looking away can you can you give him a warning I cannot at this point I have to

I think it's me no sunny third time she's not said usually in the seminar we're done with down to a violation so he's living game I hit by with the 140.05

now I don't know if you could catch that but the officer says to sunny this is a citation we're knocking it down we're knocking the town from a misdemeanor which it is to a citation which means this isn't going on his record it's not going to affect his driver's license it's as if it didn't happen but we simply have to enforce the law and sunny instead of being fucking angry with her kid

for trespassing and what's wrong with you and what are you doing over here by the train tracks with a

bunch of porta-potties what rich kid works out by the train tracks with the porta-potties we're

going to talk to Rob's shooter about it on the nerve at night we got theories instead of being

angry with her kid and being like can you believe this I you know what she should have said you know what officers don't tell me down for him given the misdemeanor maybe he'll learn something maybe consequences will help him but I'm gonna guess something was the kind of gentle parent who thought that her spawn could do no wrong okay another officer arrives on the scene and sunny fucking tries it again here we go oh it's like a party we're introducing people tracks

on the phone we action uh I'm a former on the phone with me wasn't literally for anything

more than bad who teaches fourth grade geometry just skids not a kid who's not a kid who's not a kid who's

ever in trouble he's not a kid he's a grown fucking man so this is a video copy okay so basically

I love the framing of this in the body camp so far back in alone so far lords would be a person who's not in the world not the crime of the century he says to them it's not the end of the world it's not the crime of the century he just says to show up in court and then she wrote a letter to the DA asking the DA not identifying herself as his mother as his lawyer asking the DA to dismiss the citation listen ABC news should address this because sunny is their legal correspondent

the view is under the ABC news banner here she is on top body camp video interfering in this arrest multiple times trying to get it knocked down just a quick reminder troublemakers Belinda Carlisle's animal people alliance fundraiser Christmas party is on December 3rd in West Hollywood in LA at the iconic abby food and bar uh and those of you who are Vanderbilt's fans also know it as the uh site of scantvall in a future unesco world heritage site I am going to be there
