You’re listening to the Each day Roundup right here as a part of the Actuality Steve Podcast. I’m your host, Actuality Steve. Thanks for tuning in on this Christmas day. If you happen to rejoice, Merry Christmas to everyone. If you happen to don’t, Completely satisfied Holidays to everybody else on the market. Not a ton of stuff to go over right this moment. So now we have one story after which I’m going to learn a few reader emails that I bought with some questions in it.
We’ll go over that. We’ll get to all that momentarily. So, one replace within the Blake Full of life Justin Baldoni case. Yesterday, I learn you what Brandon Skliener, who performed Atlas Corrigan within the film, supported Blake by posting on his Instagram story a screenshot Of the 80 web page grievance that Blake filed had a hyperlink to it that mentioned for the love of God learn this Effectively one other co star of Blake’s has spoken out in protection of her and that’s Jenny Slate I discussed Jenny’s identify yesterday as a result of I mentioned hey The opposite two greatest names within the film are Jenny Slate and Hasan Minhaj.
And Jenny Slate performed Ryle, Justin Baldoni’s sister, within the film. Jenny Slate mentioned, as she launched a press release, saying, As Blake Full of life’s castmate and good friend, I voiced my help as she takes motion towards these reported to have deliberate and carried out an assault on her repute. Blake is a pacesetter, loyal good friend, and a trusted supply of emotional help for me.
And so many who know and love her. What has been revealed in regards to the assault on Blake is extremely darkish, disturbing, and wholly threatening. I commend my good friend. I love her bravery and I stand by her facet. So it’s one other feather within the cap for Blake that no one from the solid or crew or manufacturing has come to Justin’s protection.
Not superb for him. Now, his publicist, Jennifer Abel, posted on Fb yesterday to defend their actions. They usually principally mentioned, Hey, we didn’t should do something. Her actions in previous interviews communicate for themselves. Which, once more, I get what they’re attempting to do right here. They’re his PR workforce. And I believe the entire PR half about that is simply going to be a variety of backwards and forwards as a result of Justin’s workforce goes to say, Hey, her PR workforce is attempting to make Justin look unhealthy.
And Blake’s workforce is clearly saying no, he had a complete PR smear marketing campaign. That’s why he employed these folks, however they really have proof. Justin’s facet doesn’t have proof they usually haven’t defended their textual content messages and emails simply but. So I believe there might be folks on either side on the PR factor. And possibly you’ll be able to even make a case like, effectively, Blake’s attempting to spoil Justin.
Okay. However Justin’s habits on set is what’s at play right here. She’s not attempting to spoil something. All she’s doing is speaking about what she went by way of on set. So I assume it comes all the way down to this. If you wish to say the PR stuff is simply too onerous to tell apart who’s telling the reality, that’s superb. You possibly can virtually get rid of that from this complete grievance.
Learn the grievance and simply examine his habits on set. Don’t even fear about, effectively, who planted this? And was there a smear marketing campaign? Personally, I believe there was, however even if you happen to take that out of the equation, this man has to reply to her accusations of how he acted on set. And also you’ve already bought co stars now coming ahead, defending Blake, which means they have been conscious of it too.
In the event that they have been on Justin’s facet, they’d communicate out towards Blake, or they’d no less than say nothing. They’re particularly coming to Blake’s facet saying now they haven’t talked about specifics. They haven’t talked in regards to the issues that she mentioned in her grievance. They usually haven’t mentioned, Oh yeah, I noticed that.
I witnessed it. However that is lengthy from over. We all know this. That is going to go on for some time now. Extra stuff goes to get out. There may be going to be tales about this in all probability each day if not weekly for the following few months. As a result of that’s all anyone goes to be digging. Particularly by way of the tip of the yr.
Like, there’s a brand new story on Us Weekly. Hell, there’s two to 3 new tales on Us Weekly and Folks. com and EW. com each single day about this. You’re not going to have the ability to get sufficient of this story. And it’s solely going to get extra salacious. Clearly, we’ve heard Blake communicate out, not simply by her grievance, however she did launch a press release.
The following individual that everybody’s going to wish to hear from is Justin Baldoni. And he’s going to should reply to what about these accusations? He’s going to should reply to why did you agree to those parameters that she had set as much as return to filming? If you happen to didn’t consider you probably did something flawed, , , look, this might go so some ways, both Justin Baldoni goes to come clean with his habits or he’s going full scorched earth.
And it’s simply going to assault Blake, which I don’t assume will play effectively for him. Positive. In a small area of interest viewers who’re ladies hating ladies, they usually simply don’t wish to like Blake Full of life. I’m positive that it’ll enchantment to them, however I believe if I’m him, I don’t understand how legally he handles it by way of, does he admit he did all these items, however.
I believe he wants to return out and truly say one thing sooner or later, however possibly he can’t legally. I don’t, I don’t know since there’s a grievance towards, , he’s being sued for sexual harassment. Possibly he’s not going to do a sit down interview or pen some type of op ed, however that’s what folks wish to hear from is Justin Baldoni as a result of Blake’s getting all of the help proper now.
And when no one from the set is supporting you now and talking out on Justin’s behalf, To not point out what was happening again in August. And we have been all like, that is so bizarre. He’s not showing with anyone from the film throughout a premiere week and purple carpet stuff. And the principle gamers within the film have all unfollowed him on social media.
It’s like one thing is up and now now we have our reply to what’s up. That’s actually the one story to go over within the leisure information on this Christmas day. I don’t plan on making this a 25 minute podcast, however there’s two emails I wish to get to first one mentioned, Hey, Steve, did you see the Joe Schmoe present is making a comeback this time and as a actuality competitors present, everybody in it is aware of it’s a prank, besides one individual.
They make him do some ridiculous stuff. Cat Deely from, so that you assume he can dance because the host it’s on TBS and it begins January twenty first. You recognize, Final yr once I had Ingrid Wiese on, who’s the, who was on the primary, or excuse me, season two of the Joe Schmoe present, the one the place it was simply loaded with sexual innuendos they usually made it a bachelor kind present.
Once I had Ingrid on was proper across the time that final yr, I wish to say final March or April, they have been operating commercials on TBS for the Joe Schmoe present, but it surely mentioned coming quickly. After which it simply form of disappeared. I hadn’t heard something about it in like a yr. Effectively, sure, now we have our reply now.
It’ll air on TBS on January twenty first. I completely 100% might be watching it. I can’t let you know sufficient how nice this present was, particularly again when it got here out on the creation of actuality TV. If you happen to actually wish to have a great snort, simply go on YouTube and Google Joe Schmoe present season two. Season one was good.
That like set the, laid the inspiration for these prank kind exhibits, however season two, if you happen to’re a bachelor. Or bachelorette fan. You’ll like season two of the Joe Schmo present higher simply because it’s a takeoff of bachelor and bachelorette the place they idiot two folks to assume they’re on a courting present. Everybody else is in on it.
And simply the sexual innuendos have been fairly humorous. So go, go test that out as I’ve the hiccups. Nice.
