Lady Link Lauren
Well, my friends, welcome back to Spot on with Link. Lauren. Happy Monday. We are inching closer and closer to Christmas, to the holidays. We have a lot to get into today. We're going to get to Michelle Obama. She is calling out Joe Biden. We're going to have a royal update on King Charles, his cancer. We're going to talk about Obama's presidential library, Joe Biden's presidential library. He's having a hard time raising money. But last night I could not sleep. You guys, I don't know about you. We are being inundated with so much violence and trauma on the news, right? Because of this 247 news cycle, because we live on our phones, we are now inundated with so much violent imagery. Right. Normally we would never see this many stories in a 24 hour period, but it was just last night with Rob Reiner. We had the shooting at Brown, the shooting in Australia on the first day of Hanukkah. For these people, they were shot on a beach trying to enjoy themselves and get together. Then you have the US soldiers who were killed. It's just this cascade of, of horrific, tragic instances leading up to the holidays. And so I'm hoping the holidays can be a reprieve and a respite from everything we're seeing in the news. I want to start with Rob Reiner. Actually, this update we have, this is what we know so far. By the time you watch the show, we could see something different. But he and his wife, they were found dead in their Los Angeles home, reportedly stabbed to death. The police are calling it an active death investigation amid unconfirmed reports their son was the culprit. However, they say that their son Nick is in custody and apparently it's going to be a $4 million bail. So the son is in custody. I've heard from VAR sources that their throats were slit. I hate to be graphic, but this is a real, real nasty, tragic situation. I imagine the son Nick had some mental health issues. Some folks have written to me saying it's a known thing. He's had mental health issues before for years. I also heard that Larry David and Billy Crystal went to the house last night and were in tears or on the verge of tears. So we're getting all of these stories, but it's hard to know what is the truth and what is not. But we do know at this time that Rob Reiner and his wife are deceased. And Rob Reiner is someone who came out even after Charlie Kirk's assassination. Right? Rob Reiner could not be less conservative. Right. He is a liberal Hollywood type. But he came out after Charlie Kirk's assassination and was very kind and very decent. And so we mourn Rob Reiner because these are instance. These are situations that transcend politics. So I know many of you love Rob Reiner. You love his films, you love his shows. We all love his art and his artwork. And I couldn't imagine them just being in bed and having this happen, especially if it is the sun, if it turns out that the son Nick, is completely responsible. This is a really bad situation. Probably one of of the worst stories to hit Hollywood in about a decade. So we also have an update on the US Soldiers who were killed in an ISIS ambush in Syria. In Syria, we just found out that they were part of the Iowa National Guard. So we want to send our love to them, our love to everybody in Iowa. This is another horrific tragedy. But I want to talk about Brown. I want to talk about what happened on Brown University's campus. As someone who was in college just a few years ago, and I had friends who went to Brown, I knew a lot of people who went to Brown. And I've been written over the weekend by parents, current students, former students. I don't know what the heck is happening at Brown University, right? I've heard from people. There are over 800 cameras on Brown's campus, right? You have over 800 cameras. You have all of these cell phones. And yet we can't get to the bottom of who was on campus shooting. They had a guy who was a person of interest, right? He was in custody. They released him last night. So he's out of custody. It's basically a cluster F. Okay, I'm not going to use the F word because my mom's Bible study is probably watching, but it is a cluster F at Brown University and in Providence, Rhode Island. And when I look at the leadership there, right, the president of Brown University makes $3.1 million a year, and she has no answers. So these parents are paying almost 100,000 a year. If you're talking tuition, food board, everything else that goes into being a college student, they're paying almost 100,000 a year to send their kids to Brown. Okay? The cameras don't work. They don't have any leads. The president of the university is a buffoon and an idiot, and the kids are not safe. So if you're a parent right now and your students at Brown, they should be coming home for the holidays. Bring them home early. I think if kids are applying to colleges, don't apply to Brown. Don't send your kid to a school where you can't even get answers days after a shooting. Days after shooting. We don't have a clear picture, right? If you go and you speed or you blow a red light, they have you in high definition. They have you in high definition right here on the computer. If. If you're in a classroom, apparently, and there's a shooter on campus, they don't have a clear picture of the guy. They have no leads. This person could be out of the country. He could be in a different state, he could be in a different continent. We don't know at this point. And these folks do not instill confidence in me. The folks at Brown University, when I see these press conferences, they're an utter calamity. So my thoughts and my prayers, and I know that is trite because we say it often, but my thoughts and my prayers are with the victims at Brown University, their families. There's one young woman. I was almost moved to tears last night, and I apologize if I'm stumbling on my words. It's just one tragedy after another. I was almost in tears last night thinking about Ella Cook. She was the vice president of the Brown College Republicans. She was one of those who was shot at Brown University. And I couldn't help but think of her parents right now, right before the holidays, right before Christmas. And so I pray that God welcomes Ella with open arms. I pray that their family is wrapped in love and solace at this time of unimaginable grief. I don't even think they're into the grief stage yet they're probably in the shock phase. They might be numb at this point because you get a call, you send your daughter to Brown University, beautiful young girl, and she gets shot. You guys can't even keep the students safe on your campus. And then days later, the university has no answer. So either it's incompetence, either you guys are wholly incompetent, or you are covering and hiding and obfuscating the truth because you don't want to talk about maybe the race of the shooter, the religion the shooter belongs to. There's some reason Brown University is not coming out and showing us a picture of the guy. But I spoke to someone over the weekend. She said her car was broken into at Brown and they couldn't even get her a clear picture. And there were several cameras, right? She said where her car was broken into, there are multiple cameras pointing to the car. And Brown couldn't turn over that footage. So there is something dicey going on at Brown. We will be monitoring the situation, but if you're a parent out there, do not send your kid to Brown, okay? Period. The last tragedy we have to discuss, of course, is in Australia. This one really hit me as well. Because we have religious freedom here in the United States. People should be allowed to get together, right? If they want to celebrate Hanukkah, these Jewish folks should be able to get together and have camaraderie and be with their family and be with their customs and their norms. And for these Muslim folks to open fire on them and for the police not to intervene for 10 or 15 minutes, nobody does anything. And these are supposed to be gun free zones. This is what I'm telling you guys. Brown University, Australia, these are places where you're not supposed to have guns, you're not supposed to need guns. But yet the bad guys, right, these radical Islamic terrorists and extremists, they're going to get their hands on guns. And this is what I've said for years. It's why we need the first, the second amendment more than ever here in the United States of America. You can't take the guns away, okay? You can't take the guns from the good guys. Because if a bad person is determined to carry out something horrific and tragic, they're going to do it. Okay, this is always my argument, right? When we have a horrific skull shooting, the left always tries to politicize it. They're doing that now with Brown University. They say we need to take the guns away. We need to take the guns away. Repeal the second Amendment, we're going to have to ban some of these guns, do a gun ban. You can ban the guns all you want. If someone is determined to come and shoot, they are going to do it, right? They're going to get their hands on a gun. So you best be sure. I'm going to defend my home. And I've said for weeks now, women out there, they're waking up to the fact that Gavin Newsom, a lot of these Democratic leaders aren't going to defend them in blue states. They're having to carry, they're purchasing firearms. I've heard from so many Jewish folks over the weekend with what happened in Australia. They're going out there and buying guns for the first time in their lives. Some of these folks are saying, I never thought. I never thought I'd be the type of person to go buy a gun, do a gun safety course, go to a gun range, but you got to do it, okay? Because the radical Islamic extremist, and I don't care if that offends people, because it's the truth, they're the ones picking up the guns and shooting Jews and Christians and Catholics, they're going to get their hands on guns. They're going to get their hands on rifles. And the last thing I want to say as it pertains to Australia, maybe we can put the footage up on the screen. I'm not sure if we're able to use it. Shout out to the Good Samaritan. God bless the Good Samaritan. I know he's in the hospital. I know there's a Gofundme for him right now who jumped and tackled the man to the ground in Australia. I'm sure you've seen the video. It's gone viral over the weekend. All it takes is one Good Samaritan. Where law enforcement failed in Australia and they didn't intervene quickly enough, and these women allegedly were standing around scared to intervene. I'm not trying to judge anyone, but that's what we've seen from the reporting so far. It took one Good Samaritan to step in, and there could have been countless more lives. Right? We know right now at least 15 people are dead. I've heard 40 are injured in the hospital, and those numbers keep climbing. So we pray for everybody in Australia. We pray for the students and the families at Brown University. We pray for Rob Reiner's family. We pray for the soldiers who were killed in the ISIS ambush in Syria. So we are praying for everyone. I hate that we even have to do a rundown of this violence. But it would be fake for me to get on camera and be happy. Go lucky. When all of this is going on and we've been up all night covering these stories, so we are going to switch gears. But I'm thinking of all of you. Please kiss your loved ones and feel free to drop a comment. My comments are always an open space for people to meet each other, to comment, to express how they feel. I know it is a scary time and sometimes when you live alone and you're inundated with all of this trauma and tragedy on the news, you can feel even worse. So we are thinking about you. But we're going to move on to Michelle Obama. Switching gears here. We have to talk about Michelle Obama. I never thought I would agree with Michelle Obama on almost anything, but she is calling out Joe Biden and these folks in Washington D.C. who overstay their welcome. Okay, we need term limits. I believe in the free market. I believe in free will. I do. And I know some folks disagree with me, but we need term limits because this is not supposed to be a geriatric facility. Washington, D.C. right? This is not supposed to be an old folks home. And shout out to everybody in the old folks home watching us. Now. I used to go play piano and sing at the old folks home. I love all my old people shout out to you, I love you. I'd actually rather hang out with old people sometimes than young folks. But Washington, D.C. when you look at Mitch McConnell, Nancy Pelosi, Joe Biden, these folks, their families push them to stay in power so they can make money, make hundreds of millions of dollars, you know, ingratiate themselves, aggrandize themselves. They were passing no good legislation. They didn't know what time of day it is. Mitch McConnell is falling down. Every other week there's a viral video of him falling down. Michelle Obama, she took a swipe, she took a swipe at Joe Biden over, over staying his welcome. Let's take a look.
- [11:39]
Michelle Obama
One of the problems with society today is that nobody wants to move on from leadership. People hang on too long and they hang on beyond their usefulness or even their practicality. I mean, as we get older, we think a different way. You know, leaders are supposed to move on to make room for the next generation that has new ideas, new energy. But because there's no place for our, our senior leaders to go with honor and dignity, I think people hold on too long and I think we suffer as a society, as a, as a nation, as a world, people are definitely.
- [12:20]
Lady Link Lauren
Holding on too long because power is seductive. It's intoxicating, it's alluring, right? People don't want to give up power. They want to stay there as long as possible. Mitch McConnell's family wants him to stay and get as rich as he can. Nancy Pelosi's family has pushed her to stick around for decades. And look at all of the stock trades and the things that she has done to make hundreds of millions of dollars, right? These people, their salary might be a hundred thousand a year, but somehow they're sitting on $400 million of cash, okay? So clearly there's a reason they want to stick around in Washington, D.C. joe Biden, I blame Jill. I blame Hunter. They were the ones who were power hungry. They were propping him up. He was non compos mentis. They were the ones really running the show. And this sort of shadow crew of advisors that was around Joe Biden, they were disgusting also in running the show. And so I'm glad Michelle Obama is calling out Joe Biden and all of these folks who overstay their welcome. But, Michelle Obama, you are still overstaying your welcome as well, because you are an annoying, whiny bitch half the time, okay? Excuse my French, but Michelle Obama, every time she gets on camera, she's complaining. Just so happens today is the day. I agree a little bit with her complaining. Now we have to talk about Joe Biden's presidential library. So Joe Biden's presidential library, they're having a hard time raising the money, okay? Nobody wants to give Joe Biden money for his library because there's no enthusiasm around him. There was an enthusiasm around Joe Biden in 2020. There was no enthusiasm during his administration. No one cares about Joe Biden. I hate to say it, okay? He's not a very nice guy, but he's, according to the New York Times, having financial issues with his presidential library. So according to the New York Times, he's only raised a small fraction of what he needs to build a library. Based on public filings and interviews with his donors, the former President's Library foundation did not receive any new. Any new donations in 2024 and was instead seeded with $4 million left over from his 2021 inauguration. You guys, this is pathetic. This is pathetic, okay? He can't even raise more than $4 million for his presidential library. According to the Times, the foundation declined to share how much it had raised in 2025, and they told the outlet he was only now beginning to actively raise money for the project. What are we waiting on? We're going to wait for Joe Biden to get older. They're like, give Joe Biden a couple years up. I mean, is he going to be a cyborg at this library? Is he going to be alive when the library opens? This is weird to me. This is getting a little weird. It almost seems like maybe they're raising money for the library, hoping he'll kick the can and then they can just use the money for whatever they want. They're like, okay, we're going to raise a couple million for the library and then we're never going to do a Libra. I don't think you guys have time to waste, okay? Joe Biden doesn't know the temperature of the room. You guys are like, we're going to Biden some time. Okay? So his library foundation expects just $11.3 million by 2027, which is far behind its $200 million goal for the project. You better have Hunter Biden selling some paintings. Hunter Biden better be selling a lot of paintings to pay for this library. Okay, you better be selling some paintings, Hunter, to pay for your father's library. I don't know how they're going to come up with 200 million. I don't know if the. I don't know if the big guy has the clout anymore. What Joe Biden had going for him is that he could pedal influence for his family. Now he's the least influential person in politics. So Obama's presidential center in Chicago, that horrific, ugly monstrosity, it's raised 1.5 billion so far. And President Trump, he's setting out to raise more than 950 million before he leaves office for his library that's going to be in Miami. Now Trump is going to have no problem raising money for this presidential library. That's not even a consideration. And I'm not shocked. Obama raised money because he's sort of this wonder kid and this sort of legend in the Democratic Party, this rock star, they all love him, you know, in his high waisted mom jeans. So I'm not shocked about that. But I'm also not shocked that Joe Biden is having a really hard time raising money for his library. And whatever the hell Obama has going on with his library, it's also a monstrosity, okay? Whoever is the architect, it's a disaster. Now, John Morgan, who's a longtime donor to the Democratic Party and one of Biden's top supporters, told the Times he would not give a penny towards the library, citing poor treatment from Biden's staff. So even Biden's former donors and people who used to support him, they're like, why are we going to give money to this library? We don't care. Why are we going to give money to Joe Biden's library? Okay? The man doesn't need a library. He probably can't read anymore. He doesn't know where he is. So I'm not shocked. I don't think Joe Biden's library will even break ground before I'm 50. I don't think Joe Biden's library might break ground in my lifetime. I think the library is a farce. I think they're going to raise a little bit of money, as much as they can, and then they're going to go out to lunch. Okay? Joe Biden, if he were smart, okay, if Joe Biden were smart, he would pick a college that he feels connected to. Maybe he could become, you know, the czar of that library that already exists on the campus of a certain college, right? Maybe it's a historically black college. Maybe it's a college for people with needs. Maybe it's a college for people who can't afford to go anywhere else. I don't know, find a college or university and maybe they can change the name of that library. They can find you, like with the Dewey decimal system, your own row in the library with a little plaque like they put on chairs and park benches. But Joe Biden, I don't see this library happening anytime soon. Well, more and more celebrities are waking up to the fact that Gavin Newsom, the governor of California, is a feckless coward, okay? To use an SAT word, he's a feckless coward. He's a little beta male bitch boy who does not care about women. Okay? Gavin Newsom, we've known this for a long time. He wants men and women's sports. He wants to inject young girls with cross sex hormones so they can change their gender in the name of gender ideology. Okay? He wants more criminals on the street. He doesn't want to clean up homelessness. He wants open borders. We saw what has happened with Open Borders the last few years, right? Lake and Riley, Jocelyn Angari, these young girls who are vicious, viciously attacked and murdered by illegal migrant criminals. Gavin Newsom, he wants to support all of that. I don't care what he tells you. That is who Gavin Newsom is. Well, Gavin Newsom was on a podcast recently and he spoke about wanting trans kids and what he understood, 80% of the country disagrees with him, but he is going to be pro lgbtq. Let's take a look.
- [18:32]
Gavin Newsom
We didn't get into transports. That's an issue no one wants to hear about because 80 of the people listening disagree with my position on this. But I, but it comes from my heart, not just my head. It wasn't a political evolution. It was position. Being that I, I don't think it's. I, I want to see trans kids. I have a trans godson. I'm not. There's no governor to sign more pro trans legislation than I have. And no one has been a stronger advocate for the LTP 2 minute.
- [18:56]
Lady Link Lauren
We don't need more trans kids, okay? I feel terrible if children are confused with their gender, if they're being pumped with gender ideology. Trans ideology. But these doctors, these doctors who convince parents of 11 year old, 12 year old kids that they should be on hormones, that they should be on puberty blockers, these doctors need to be in prison, okay? They are betraying their Hippocratic oath, right? If we had this conversation 10, 15, 20 years ago, people would have said, oh my God, that's crazy. That's crazy. They want to inject kids with hormones and puberty blockers. That's nuts. They should be in prison, right? They should be on death row. Now the left has just capitulated to this woke mob. I'm happy to see, I'm happy to see folks like Nicki Minaj calling out Gavin Newsom. And let me read you a little bit about what's going on. She said, imagine being the guy running on wanting to see trans kids. Not even a trans adult would run on that. Normal adults wake up and think they want to see healthy, safe, happy kids. Not Gavin. The Gav knots. Gav out. Send in the next guy. I'm bored. Then she said this about Gavin Newsom. Gavin is the cute boy who got everything handed to him because of how cute and sexy and hot and smoking he was. Ooh, look, I'm sitting there in that suit with the sneakers on. He thinks he's Tom Cruise. Only difference is his next mission is impossible. He should get another leading role. I love Nicki Minaj. As you guys know, Nicki Minaj is someone I have supported for years. Over the weekend when I was posting about this, Nick Minaj actually followed me. So maybe we'll have a link. Lauren. Nicki Minaj cross over in 2026. But I love Nikki and I'm glad so many women in Hollywood who have massive platforms are speaking out against Gavin Newsom because there is A fear, right? Not Nicki Minaj. She's pretty fearless. But there is this fear in Hollywood among a lot of actors and other celebrities and influencers. They hate Gavin Newsom. Everybody hates Gavin Newsom. In private, nobody likes him. But if they come out against him, they come out against the Democratic Party, right? They could become Persona non grata. They won't get invited to the Vanity Fair Oscar party. You know what I'm saying? They'll get, you know, disinvited from the Golden Globes. If you support anything that is seen as conservative, as independent, but really, it's just common sense, right? We don't need to be injecting kids with hormones. We don't need boys and girls locker rooms. And Gavin Newsom, when he was with Charlie Kirk months ago on a podcast, he had a completely different view. He even admitted there was a fairness issue, having men and women's sports. Let's take a look down memory lane. So, like, you right now should come out and be like, you know what, the young man who's about to win the state championship in the long jump in female sports, that's that. That shouldn't happen. You, as the governor, should step out.
- [21:24]
Gavin Newsom
And say, no, no, and I apprec in.
- [21:26]
Lady Link Lauren
But, like, would you do something like that? Would you say no men in female sports?
- [21:29]
Gavin Newsom
Well, it's. I think it's an issue of fairness. I completely agree with you on that. So that's easy to call out the unfairness of that.
- [21:35]
Lady Link Lauren
So Gavin Newsome is a phony. He's a fraud. He's inauthentic. I don't know how, as a father and a husband, he sleeps at night. How do you sleep at night knowing that you want more men and women's sports? And you're going against exactly what you told Charlie Kirk. You're fighting the DOJ now to keep boys and girls sports. So, Gavin Newsom, you're fake. You should be nowhere near the nuclear codes. I don't think we have to worry about Gavin Newsom ever becoming president because he's even admitting he doesn't care if 80% of the country disagrees with him. He's going to support more trans kids. He's going to support men and women's sports. So it's pretty asinine and it's a pretty horrific political strategy to say that you don't care if 80% of the country disagrees with you. So, Gavin Newsom, we wish you well. Wish you well with your political career. Also with Gavin Newsom, part of what makes me think he's a beta male and doesn't have a lot of testosterone. He doesn't even call his wife Jennifer his wife. He calls her the first partner of California. Like, I'm gay. I don't even want to be called a partner. You know, I'm not playing pickleball, okay? We're not playing doubles tennis here. I don't want to be called a partner. And I don't think women out there who've given their husbands several children and have stood by them through their scandals, I don't think they want to be called first partners either. I think they want to be called wives. This holiday, while others chase the rush, find your calm with Peak, a luxury wellness brand powered by rare plants and cutting edge ingredients.

Get started@peaklife.com link that's P I Q U E life.com link L I N K Now we have to talk about the Duchess of Desperation. Okay, the Duchess of Scamalot. The Duke and Duchess of Soho House. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. They're back with a new project. Okay, they're a little scattered. They're a little all over the place. They seem to change their passions and their hobbies from week to week. Okay, so Meghan Markle, she has now decided that she and Harry are going to produce a documentary about the Girl Scouts. Now let me preface this by saying I'm a very objective person. Like with the jams and the raspberry spread and the marmalade that I had to spit back into the jar, I'm very objective. I will give credit where credit is due. If they produce this documentary on the Girl Scouts, and it's great. I will tell you guys. But if it's terrible, I'm also going to hold their feet to the fire and let you know. So here's what we know so far. Meghan and Harry are set to executive produce Cookie Queens, a documentary that spotlights a coming of age story about the joys, pressures and pain points woven into one of America's most cherished rituals. Girl Scout cookie season. Now, I'm a thin Mint person. Okay, drop a comment. Tell me what kind of Girl Scouts you like. I like thin mints. I like a lot of the different ones. I'm not into anything peppermint. I don't even know if they sell a peppermint. But I'm just mad because someone tried to give me something peppermint last night. I don't really do peppermint, but I love Thin Mint Girl Scout cookies. Okay, I will buy boxes and boxes and boxes. I'll put them in the freezer. I'll get another freezer. So no, I love Girl Scout cookies. And shout out to the girls. Shout out to the entrepreneurs. But Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are so desperate. Every other project has flopped so hard. Every other project is what they're now like. Let's just do a documentary on the Girl Scouts. Maybe it'll be good. Maybe. This is Meghan Markle's calling now. It's set to premiere at Sundance in 2026 as part of their family matinee section. And this is how they describe it, okay. According to Sundance, it's a captivating, candid, and full of heart film that follows four girls, ages 5 to 12, and their families as they navigate the annual whirlwind of selling, striving and succeeding. I love the alliteration. Selling, striving and succeeding. That's what I'm doing here. I just hope, okay, if Meghan Markle is producing this film on Girl Scout cookies, I hope she does a better job than she did with her candles that had no W mix. Okay? We have a recurring character here on the show, the Wickless Candle. Okay. I don't know if I'd be trusting Meghan Markle for any type of business or entrepreneurial advice if you're a Girl Scout out there, okay? The bitch couldn't even sell candles with wicks. Okay? She forgot to put a wick in the candle. So I hope the Girl Scouts are in good hands with Meghan Markle producing the project. Now, according to Meghan Markle, this is Very nostalgic for her because she was a Girl Scout when she was young, growing up in California. A long, long, long time ago, if you go by her real age. So here's her statement. As a former Girl Scout myself, with my mom as my troop leader, I have a personal affinity for this film and am proud that all our conversations and collaboration have led to Archewell Productions partnering with this award winning team to executive produce this incredibly captivating documentary. When we first viewed the early footage of this documentary, it was immediately something we wanted to be involved in. The creative point of view, the edgy yet humanizing tone and tenor of the directing and the glimpse behind the scenes into such a nostalgic and also modern tradition of Girl Scout cookie season are absolutely resistible. You know, Meghan Markle can go spend all this time with the Girl Scouts. Do we ever see her with her own children? Do we ever see Archie and Lily Bet? Is Lily Bet gonna be in the film? Oh, my God. If Lily bet Diana, if little Lily bet Diana is out there knocking on doors selling thin mints and Girl Stout cookies, I will probably watch this documentary. I will respect the documentary more if Lily Bet is in it having a normal child experience. But Meghan Markle, this just shows you how desperate they've become. Okay. Every project is flopped. The Christmas special, that was a flop. I think our review of the Christmas special had more people tuning in than the actual Christmas special on Netflix. Her reality show With Love Megan was a flop. Everything they've done is floppy. I mean, the candles don't have wicks. Do I, do I need to say any more? So, Meghan Markle, we wish you well with this documentary. Someone else we also wish well is King Charles. So King Charles addressed the nation. He addressed the United Kingdom a couple of days ago regarding his cancer diagnosis and his cancer treatment, which apparently has been scaled back, which is a good sign. We actually have a clip. Let's take a look.

Today I am able to share with you the good news that thanks to early diagnosis, effective intervention, and adherence to doctors orders, my own schedule of cancer treatment can be reduced in the new year. This milestone is both a personal blessing and a testimony to the remarkable advances that have been made in cancer care in recent years.

I'm happy to hear that King Charles is doing well. I'm happy to hear that Catherine, the Princess of Wales, also known as Kate Middleton, here in the United States. States. I'm happy to hear that the family is on track with better health moving into 2026. I love this. I Also thought King Charles looked great in the video. The lighting was good. He looked healthy. I thought the tie looked nice. Okay. I thought the tie and little handkerchief, I thought it was nice. And I think what is going to modernize the monarchy is the fact that Catherine is open about her health. She's open about struggles she faces in terms of child rearing, raising her kids, motherhood. Charles is open about his health scandals, excuse me, his health scares. And so I think all of this is going to help modernize the monarchy because in the past with the Queen, they would have had that stiff upper lip. They wouldn't have really let people into their struggles, their trials, their tribulations, and also some of their triumphs. And so I think for young people to feel like they can relate. There's not a person out there who hasn't been touched by cancer, who isn't touched by cancer in some way, shape or form. Now, we all know a friend, a loved one, a relative who has cancer in their lives or we may have lost them to cancer. And so I think the fact that such high profile folks in media and culture like the royals are open about this is going to be helpful and it's going to also reduce the stigma. People can be more open and saying, look, I'm struggling today. I'm hurting, hurting, or I'm trying this treatment. And there's so many alternative treatments. Okay, I just want to touch on this briefly now that I'm thinking about it. There's so many alternative treatments to cancer. Right? There are different type of, different types of vitamins and supplements and IVs people are doing and different type of medicines they might have in another country. There's some folks who are deciding not to do chemo altogether. Right. There are new things we're looking at now here in 2025. Right. As we have more of an open mind when it comes to health and wellness. We have a lot of chat rooms online and discussion boards and people can get different information. I think having the royals be so open, it's going people to discuss, here's what worked for me, here's what worked for me, here's what didn't work for me, here's what my insurance tried to talk me into and it ended up being a bust. Right. I think we're going to be able to have these conversations more and more out in the open. So God bless King Charles, the royal family, and God bless all of you, because I'm sure every single person watching this is touched by cancer. Now, I know I saw a comment recently from a woman who said that she is struggling with cancer, but she tunes in to watch our podcast and watch our content. So I absolutely love you. I'm thinking about you and if you're alone right now, okay, I'm with you. So you're not really alone.

Well, apparently the woke mop doesn't want us saying Merry Christmas anymore, but they're also trying to take away Jingle Bells, okay? You have to be really desperate and pathetic and bored to try to take away Jingle Bells. Jingle Bells jingle all the way. Okay? And I've also. I've ridden in a one horse open sleigh. Hey. But Joy Reid, Joy Reid, who you might remember as the most racist woman on earth, she was actually fired from msnbc, which is hard to do. It is hard to get fired from msnbc. You got to be a whole different kind of racist. But every time she went on air, it was a bunch of buffoonery, tomfoolery and malarkey. It was a lie after lie after lie, okay? And her ratings, they were down in the gutter. I don't care what she says. Her ratings were in the gutter. I'll also say, Joy Reid, she has been trying to steal my hairstyle for years. That bitch. Okay? Joy Reid, she's been trying to steal my hair for a very long time. And I wasn't going to say anything and I was going to just let her off the hook. But now let's have some truth. Let's have some truth going into the new year. Well, Joy Reid, she posted. She posted that apparently Jingle Bells is racist. Let me read you a little bit about this. She says that the Christmas anthem was written to make fun of black people. And she shared this video of a man in a Christmas Christmas sweater and Santa hat. And he stands on the streets of Medford, Massachusetts, near a plaque that marks the site where James Lord Pierpont is believed to have pinned the song in 1850. He takes off his hat disapprovingly and scowls at the plaque. The video caption reads, this is where a racist Confederate soldier wrote Jingle Bells to make fun of black people. This is a new one. This is a new one for me. If Jingle Bells is racist, you guys, everything can't be racist. Let me just give some advice to these figures on the left. Left. When you accuse everything and everyone of being racist, nothing is racist, okay? You lose your bite, you lose your bark. No one cares anymore. No one cares. We're gonna enjoy Jingle Bells. I don't care if Jingle Bells has ties to, you know, racism in the past or something horrible. You know what? We're allowed to have some fun. You're trying to take Jingle Bells away because you're bored, empathetic, and have nothing going on in your lives. And then Joy Reid. I think what really pisses Joy Reid off, the reason Joy Reid is so bitter, is that when she was fired from msnbc, okay? They proved that she was nothing more than a box check DEI higher. Okay? Because they replaced her with her doppelganger, hoping that the audience may because of the glaucoma, maybe because they haven't had their cataract surgery or lasik. I think MSNBC was hoping the audience wouldn't notice that they replaced Joy Reid with another bald black woman. Okay? So Joy Reid thought she was so special for the network. They were literally checking boxes. They fired Joy Reid and they're like, oh, my God, we got to get another bald black woman who looks almost identical to her in here asap so the audience doesn't notice. That's what MSNBC did. They even tried to change their name and no one cared. Okay. If a tree falls in the forest. So I think Joy Reid is more upset with her situation in life. She's upset with her career. She doesn't have a lot of vertical mobility in her career. She's sort of plateaued and gone down, and now she's trying to hack it in independent media. So we wish Joy Reid well. I'm going to keep singing. Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle bells jingle all the way. Are you struggling with gifts for that hard to please person? Mine's my mom. She's minimalist.
