Mark, are you there?
00:00:32
Speaker 1: Yeah. Hello, hello.
00:00:34
Speaker 2: There you are.
00:00:35
Speaker 1: Now I can hear you.
00:00:36
Speaker 2: Hey, tell us the name of your book, the novel that everybody's.
00:00:38
Speaker 1: Yes, I've got a new novel coming out. It's coming out in just two weeks, December 1st, but you can pre-order it right now. It's called Queen Elizabeth III, and it's set in 2041, 15 years in the future, and we have a new queen on the throne, and it's not who you expect it to be.
00:00:56
Speaker 2: Oh, okay.
00:00:56
Speaker 1: So.
00:00:57
Speaker 2: Go to Amazon, type in Rob Shooter, get his new book. You can get it right now. Hey, speaking of England, I love Russell Brand, great comedian. He's been in the most vicious, ugly, dangerous prison awaiting sentencing. What happened today?
00:01:14
Speaker 1: Yeah, so today he was sentenced just actually just 20 minutes ago. He entered the court this morning. His wife was there and he was sentenced to 10 years and six months, one count. of rape, guilty, three counts of sexual aggression. And this is not over for him yet. There are at least two other people out there who, who, who claim that he abused them. So the police are looking into that, but 10 years, six months in prison, it's slightly different here because it's such a serious crime. He will have to serve two thirds of it. So he's going to spend the next six, seven years in jail. He's been moved to a new prison too. It, It's tough. His life now has changed forever that this won't be appealed. He's going to be in jail now for at least the next six years. Wow.
00:02:08
Speaker 2: So what happened? Was he really that bad a guy? I had no idea.
00:02:11
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, he's always sleazy. He was very, very funny, but he was always sort of a sleazy guy. He always had a reputation. He admitted himself under oath that he used his celebrity to be promiscuous. A lot of celebrities do that. He went too far with this, and many victims came forward. It was actually in a documentary. The BBC was working on a documentary about him, and once it aired, then the police pressed charges and investigated this, and now a jury has found him guilty. They found him innocent on two counts of rape, but on one count of rape, he was found guilty, several counts of sexual misconduct. What's going to make it very difficult for him is that another alleged victim who has come forward is 16 years old. So this is not.
00:03:01
Speaker 2: over.
00:03:02
Speaker 1: This is ugly, ugly. And I think a lot of people like you today are scratching their heads. This is somebody that we thought was really funny, that was clearly carrying dark, dark demons, and now he's going to be paying the price. They have three children together. His wife broke down in tears. He was stoic. I had reporters in the court, and he was emotionless. He mouthed, I love you, and we're going to be okay to his wife as he was led away. But, yeah, Russell Brand now, definitely. In Britain, he won't do the 10 years. He's not going to do that, but it's going to be at least two-thirds of that, which is, what, seven, eight years. Oh, God.
00:03:40
Speaker 2: What a shame. Hey, now, Meghan Markle, her father, apparently it's child pornography of the worst kind. Now, he was arrested over the weekend, right?
00:03:50
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, her dad was arrested. So her dad was arrested. Her half-brother, who's a complicated fellow, has had some substance abuse issues in the past. He's also called Thomas Markle, so it makes it a little bit confusing. But Thomas Markle Jr. alleges that he found... sexually inappropriate materials in his father's home in the Philippines. And then they have now, the FBI, the police have searched a storage locker in LA where they claim to have found pornographic images, child pornography. And he was arrested. He's back in America. He's in Florida. He's in an old people's home there. And he claims he has dementia. But over the weekend, he was handcuffed. And he has one leg. He had a leg amputated. So he was wheeled out in a wheelchair, put in an ambulance, taken, charged. He's now back in that facility, but he's wearing an ankle monitor. And his trial has not, the data has not been set yet. What makes this so difficult for him is allegedly he's in the images. So it's very hard to prove that the photographs were his if he wasn't in the house. He hadn't been in his house in the Philippines for years. And so some people defending him, including his daughter, Samantha, Megan's half-sister, they're defending him saying this stuff was planted. The dad would never do this. The part of this that I don't see him getting around or being able to explain or being able to say was planted was allegedly there are photographs of him with children. And if he's in the pictures, he's done. Wow.
00:05:29
Speaker 2: Hey, Martha Stewart, I've always found her behind the scenes to be kind of cold and heartless and an awful person.
00:05:36
Speaker 1: She's pretty awful.
00:05:38
Speaker 2: Okay. I didn't want to drag you into this.
00:05:40
Speaker 1: You can say it. No, she's pretty tough. Yeah.
00:05:42
Speaker 2: In real life, she's just an awful person. She's not nice. She's not nice. So she decides to make a Halloween costume. It was so tasteless, so disgusting. She dresses up as a homeless person with a pathetic sign and posts it online. She's got very smart PR people. They must have called her like in one second, take that down. Took it right down. And then what happens?
00:06:05
Speaker 1: So then
Load full transcript
she went to Florida to a sales convention. She did apologize. So at first, this is where we get ourselves in trouble. We're allowed to mess up. It's not good. There's nothing gracious about this. She posted a dumb picture. It was tasteless. It was tone deaf. They took it down. And then Martha foolishly claimed that she was trying to bring attention to homeless people. Nonsense. Just ridiculous. Then Martha realized that that wasn't going to fly, and finally she did own it, and she said, I messed up, I'm sorry, and that should have been the end of it. A couple of days later, she was in Florida at a convention, and she blamed Craig Melvin, who is the co-host of the Today Show, for the picture. Let me explain. What? Martha every year goes on the Today Show's Halloween special. It's always a big, big production. They dress up. Martha was on the show dressed as an Olympian, wearing that white tracksuit that they all wore at the Olympics. And she did a cooking segment with Craig. And Craig accidentally, rather funny, I thought, spilt a little bit of chocolate on Martha's white top. Martha claimed in Florida that the reason she was a homeless person for Halloween was because Craig had messed up her original costume. Well, then the Today Show people went mad, saying, Martha, you can't blame us. Don't drag us into this mess. We don't want to be involved in this. So the following day, Martha had to go back on the Today Show and now apologizes. To Craig. It's just, she can't help herself. They say when you're in a hole, stop digging. Martha has done the opposite.
00:07:47
Speaker 2: Hey, isn't she supposed to know every single secret of how to get a stain out of a.
00:07:52
Speaker 1: Boom. If anyone can get chocolate out of a white top, it's Martha Stewart. Martha, come on. All right.
00:07:59
Speaker 2: Well, she's got that great PR woman. Well, probably the one in top PR.
00:08:01
Speaker 1: Susan Magrino.
00:08:02
Speaker 2: Susan Magrino, great PR woman. This poor Susan must have really earned her money this past two weeks.
00:08:09
Speaker 1: A friend of mine actually had ended up, there was a big party where the Daily Beast was throwing, and Susan was there, and some friends of mine saw Susan there, and she looked very haggard, let's say. She looked exhausted, so I'm sure she's had one hell of a week.
00:08:24
Speaker 2: No, she's very good, but hey, Gavin Newsom thought he was on his way to be president. John Ossoff, the Democrat who just got elected in Georgia, is now the darling of the party, so what What does that do to Gavin?
00:08:37
Speaker 1: It's wild, isn't it? So I have a master's degree in political science. So when people tell me to shut up about politics, I'm pretty damn good at this. I never really reveal my own politics or get that involved in it. I get it. I'm in the celebrity gossip world. But occasionally these worlds cross over. And thanks to President Trump, politics is now entertainment. And entertainment has always been politics. So I've started to do a few more of these types of stories. And so I hit the phones online. I've known people around Gavin for a long time, and particularly because he's in California where all the stars live, and they tell me he thought this was his. He thought 2028 was his. It was in the bag. He was going to be the nominee, and he's pretty confident that he was going to win. However, a couple of days ago, the Democratic Party discovered this other young, handsome devil, John, and Gavin is not happy about it. One source told me, Gavin... John. And it's not just about 2028. Gavin likes to be the best looking guy in the room, the guy that we all have a crush on. And now there's this new, young, handsome senator who everybody is talking about. Everybody is drooling over. If you go online, there's lots of cheeky, streaky, thirsty gifs about him and photographs of him. And I'm told that Gavin has a trouble in his own room in the Democratic Party for one hot day. And it looks like it's no longer Gavin.
00:10:06
Speaker 2: Well, Gavin should study history. Whoever's the frontrunner, two, three years out, it's always a pretty boy. Gary Hart. Or John Edwards. They always, always fizzle out real fast, and that's what he's done.
00:10:20
Speaker 1: They do, don't they? It's so interesting because I think people think that it's the world of entertainment and celebrities that are just so petty. I've never met– a bunch of petty people, the politicians, and they, they had just awful. And so this just made me laugh so loud. And it's sort of funny too. You know, when you think you are the Bob, when you were it, and then suddenly you wake up and no one's talking about Gavin today, they've moved on.
00:10:49
Speaker 2: Uh, uh, Hey, we only got a minute left. Uh, Rob shooter, um, uh, Travis Kelsey, Taylor Swift. Are they still married?
00:10:56
Speaker 1: Still married. Terrible. Still married and now they've got the first dilemma. Christmas. First Christmas together as husband and wife. Who do they spend it with? His parents, her parents. I'm hearing they don't want a tug of war here. I think a lot of newly married couples go through this. I'm told they're going to start their own traditions and they're going to spend Christmas here in New York. She has a massive townhouse downtown. And what they're going to do is invite both sets of parents. So they're going to host it. and their parents are going to be coming to them. So if it's anything like the wedding, it's going to be a big, fabulous Christmas, an over-the-top Christmas with Travis and Taylor.
00:11:33
Speaker 2: You know, there's nothing more wonderful than a very carefully calculated PR sort of a Christmas, photo-op kind of a Christmas.
00:11:42
Speaker 1: We think alike.
00:11:43
