Key Discussion Points & Insights

The Kardashian-Jenner Party & The Disappearing Photos

• Location & Attendees: Kris Jenner’s extravagant 70th birthday bash at Jeff Bezos’ $165 million “cottage” hosted a super-A-list guest list: the Kardashians, Mariah Carey, Beyoncé, Chris Rock, and the Markles.
• The Photo Scandal: Initially, pictures of Harry and Meghan with the Kardashians circulated on social media before mysteriously disappearing.
  • Kennedy speculates, "Did they take their pictures down? Because Harry and Meghan are a couple of wet sandwiches and no one wants to be around them because they're completely unenjoyable people." [01:10]
• Meghan’s Obsession with Image: According to a "source in Santa Barbara," Meghan is "so particular about the curation of the photos that are shown to the world."
• Perceived Motivations: Kennedy suggests the photo removal was driven by Meghan's dissatisfaction with her appearance in the images, believing she "faded into the background" compared to Kim Kardashian and Kris Jenner.
  • “She looked so boxy and bloated in comparison to the woman she wants to be. She wants to be Kim Kardashian.” [02:50]

Meghan Markle vs. The Kardashians: Aspirations & Insecurities

• Identity & Envy: Kennedy paints Meghan as aspiring desperately to be a "beautiful influencer," “she devil in the boardroom,” and “bad bitch” a la Kim Kardashian.
• Kardashian Empire: Kim is positioned as the ultimate influencer, with her company valued at $5 billion: “Big booty, big thirst trap… known for being like, a sex goddess, a porn star, and a bad bitch.” [03:20]
• Meghan’s ‘Ordinary’ Image: The contrast of Meghan standing next to the Kardashians is highlighted to underscore her perceived insecurity.

Royal Drama & Exile

• Family Fallout: Kennedy details the ostracism of Harry from the royal family, referencing Prince Andrew’s disgrace and predicting similar treatment for Harry from William.
  • “William's just like, tick, tock, tick, tock, can't wait till I'm king because you are dead to me.” [05:45]
• Harry’s Discomfort: “He knows he’s no longer a part of that world, that everyone in the royal family hates him. They think he's a wuss and a disloyal turncoat.” [06:15]
• Marriage Prognosis: Kennedy questions the sustainability of Harry and Meghan’s marriage under these strains: “You look at a person like that and the impossibility and you're like, how can their marriage survive?” [07:00]

Kennedy’s Take on Celebrity Rationality

• Kardashians as the ‘Rational’ Ones: Kennedy’s irony is on full display: “I rarely side with the Kardashians because, you know, they're just, they're silicone and annoying and narcissistic and all those things. But here it's like, when the Kardashians look like the rational ones, you know there’s something wrong with you.” [07:40]

Celebrity Eccentricities: Kim Kardashian & Psychics

• Kim’s Struggles with the Bar Exam: Kennedy revels in the story that Kim Kardashian failed the bar and her family’s psychics wrongly predicted success.
  • “Kim was bitching because four of them told her she was going to pass the bar. That’s so weird. You mean a psychic that you’re paying thousands and thousands of dollars to is going to lie and tell you exactly what you want to hear?” [08:45]
• Skepticism on Psychics: Kennedy lampoons psychics, calling it “a great way to sell snake oil and to separate fools from their money.” [09:15]
• Kim’s Legal Aspirations: “If I were the bar people… I would not give one to Kim Kardashian. She’s got plenty. She’s got her hands full. She’s got a brothel. She’s got her ass full. She’s good.” [09:55]

Meghan Out of the Social Circle

• Friendship Fallout: Kennedy’s closing words delight in the prospect of Kim no longer needing to “be friends with dumb, silly, whiny Meghan Markle anymore. Problem solved. World saved.” [10:10]

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• On Meghan Markle and Image:

  • “She really, really wants to be famous. She…will not rest until all eyes are on her. And then all eyes are on her. And she’s like, nope, I…can’t possibly have that image of me floated throughout the world.” [07:00]

• On Family Betrayal:

  • “He will never forgive him for what he wrote in the book…for that cash grab betrayal in his memoir, Spare. Ever.” [05:50]

• On the Kardashian-Markle Showdown:

  • "Now they're like, oh, no, no, wait, we have a multi billion dollar machine. We are going to crush your dreams. That is the message to Megan after all of the leaks and the, the insider quotes and the reporting." [08:00]

• On Kim Kardashian and Psychics:

  • "It's really fun watching Kim Kardashian get riled up over something as irrational as a psychic getting it wrong. Yeah, that's...really someone you'd want in the courtroom arguing the facts on your behalf." [09:30]
