Show Host
Wendy's gonna be ducking out of here a little early. She is on assignment for the next 24 hours.
Wendy
On assignment to Knoxville, Tennessee, where Taylor Lautner. Lautner and Kristen Stewart are going to be doing a red carpet thing. And I have the assignment of going to get the Taylor Lautner interview and make out session.
Show Host
Yeah, the first thing you got to do is tell him that he's pronouncing his last name incorrectly.
Wendy
Yeah, he says it Lautner on the interview we just had with him. But we've been saying Lautner.
Show Host
Let's hear how he pronounces it.
Co-host 1
Lautner.
Show Host
He's messing it all up.
Co-host 2
Q100 and the birch show.
Co-host 3
Hey, what's up?
Wendy
It's Taylor Lautner playing so I gotta tell him he's saying his name wrong. Yeah, it's Lautner.
Show Host
That's the first, that's your first impression right there. So, yeah, they're gonna be up in Knoxville. So you've got, you gotta be able to control yourself tonight here because you're all excited about Lautner and all that, but you got an assignment you need to bring back. You speaking, you doing an interview with Taylor?
Wendy
I think I can handle it. I'm a little nervous right now because, I mean, the drive up there, all I'm gonna be thinking, what do I ask, what do I ask? What do I do when I see him? How am I gonna do my hair? How's my outfit gonna look? I hope I look alright. Is he gonna come to me? I don't know.
Co-host 3
You should just sing him. You belong with me.
Wendy
Oh, I mean, bring my guitar and be Taylor Swift.
Show Host
Or this one, just sing him a little Justin Bieber.
Wendy
No. I'm so excited.
Show Host
Say, Taylor, this is my ringtone for you. The thing about these red carpet deals also here, Wendy, that you're gonna have to keep in mind is that it gets really competitive. I mean, you gotta keep in mind there's a whole bunch of people that, that are gonna be jockeying for any words at all that they can bring back to their TV station or a radio station. You're gonna have to somehow, some way muscle your way up to the front of that line and it gets vicious in some of the, it does get pretty aggressive.
Co-host 1
Wendy and I both experienced it at American Idol.
Wendy
Yeah, me and Jen did American Idol and we were pretty aggressive there. Got some good interviews. But yeah, I'm gonna be aggressive with this one if this is my one. To be this close to Taylor Lautner, it's gonna happen.
Co-host 2
Yeah, definitely.
Show Host
And we can't forget that Kristen Stewart's gonna be up there also.
Co-host 3
Yes. You know who that is, right, Wendy?
Excited Fan
Yes.
Wendy
She's dating Robert Pattinson or she's not dating, but dating, so.
Co-host 3
And also, I mean, I think you have to try to get a picture with Lautner because that. Lautner, Lautner.
Co-host 1
Oh, absolutely.
Co-host 3
You have to try to get a picture with him because I mean, that
Co-host 1
right there, that way you touch that is legal touching. If you take a picture, you slide your hand around, you can feel the rippling muscles in his back. Try out an ab. Yes. Yeah. Legal touching during the show.
Co-host 3
You know what Bert always says at the end of every show as soon as we get off the air. Remember kids, if you're Gonna commit pedophilia. Document it.
Excited Fan
What?
Co-host 3
So that's what you need to do. Just take a picture.
Co-host 1
Exactly.
Show Host
Yeah. And then we all, like, put our hands on top of each other like we're in a huddle and.
Lowe's Announcer
Yeah, we know this man.
Co-host 1
The hell is. Anyway, Wendy, I have total faith that you are gonna get this interview with Taylor Lautner and you're gonna get a picture with him.
Show Host
Let me give you an example of what you don't wanna sound like tonight, okay? This is you. Remember we played this for you a couple of months ago. This is the woman in England that was watching the new movie trailer for the very first time. It had just come out. She opens up her laptop, she turns the camera on, and then she starts watching the trailer and she just loses her mind. This is how you don't want to sound like this tonight, okay?
Excited Fan
Oh, my God. I can't wait. I can't wait. I almost. I almost don't want to watch it so that I can, you know, watch it again later. Deep breath. Okay, Here we go. Play the beach. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. I need to pause it right there. Oh, my God. What the f. Has Taylor done to himself? Oh, my God, he's so hot. I don't even care if he's like 17. I don't give. He's hot, okay? The boy is hot.
Co-host 3
She needs to take the pair of dice out of her mouth.
Excited Fan
And the wolf. The wolf. It's a proper wolf. It's like a poof and it's a wolf. It's a proper wolf. It's not a little wolf. It's a wolf.
Wendy
Should I say that? I'm gonna say that.
Show Host
Okay. Try not to sound like that. Your bar is set very low for now.
Wendy
I can definitely achieve more than that. I will get the interview. Getting the picture.
Co-host 1
Profile picture.
Show Host

Wendy
No hyperventilating. No. There will be no heavy breathing.

Main Cast: Bert, Wendy, Jen, and other Bert Show co-hosts
Episode Focus: Wendy prepares to interview Taylor Lautner and Kristen Stewart at a red carpet event, and contemplates confronting Taylor about the correct pronunciation of his last name.
This lively and humorous episode follows show member Wendy as she gets ready to head to Knoxville, Tennessee to cover a red carpet appearance by Twilight stars Taylor Lautner and Kristen Stewart. With her assignment in mind, the team discusses strategies (and anxieties) about celebrity interviews—with a running joke that Wendy needs to inform Taylor Lautner that he’s mispronouncing his own name. The conversation is filled with playful banter, memorable moments, and shows the behind-the-scenes nerves and excitement of covering major pop culture events.
Navigating Crowds: Wendy is reminded about the highly competitive nature of red carpet interviews and the need to assert herself among other journalists.
Fan Enthusiasm: The team playfully encourages Wendy to be more aggressive to get her shot with Lautner, including the importance (jokingly) of a “legal touch” (a photo together).
Don’t Lose Your Cool: The team recalls a viral fan reaction to a movie trailer as a cautionary example for Wendy on how not to act.
Memorable Banter: The hosts rib each other about fan obsession and the social etiquette of celebrity crushes.
[01:53] Show Host:
“The first thing you gotta do is tell him that he's pronouncing his last name incorrectly.”
[02:04] Wendy:
“It's Taylor Lautner playing so I gotta tell him he's saying his name wrong. Yeah, it’s Lautner.”
[02:52] Show Host:
“It gets really competitive… you gotta keep in mind there's a whole bunch of people that are gonna be jockeying for any words at all that they can bring back...”
[03:49] Co-host 1:
“If you take a picture, you slide your hand around, you can feel the rippling muscles in his back. Try out an ab.”
[04:50] Excited Fan (fan reaction clip):
“Oh my God. Has Taylor done to himself? Oh my God, he's so hot. I don't even care if he's like 17… The boy is hot.”
[06:09] Wendy:
“I can definitely achieve more than that. I will get the interview. Getting the picture.”
Throughout the segment, the tone is irreverent, energetic, and filled with friendly teasing. The team is self-aware, poking fun at fan obsessions and red carpet chaos while still expressing genuine excitement for Wendy's assignment.
This episode perfectly encapsulates the witty, supportive, and slightly zany camaraderie of The Bert Show. Listeners get a fun behind-the-scenes look at the excitement and mild chaos that comes with covering celebrity culture, along with some good-natured ribbing over the silliest details—like the pronunciation of a movie star’s name. Whether you’re a casual Twilight fan or radio enthusiast, you’ll enjoy the blend of humor, real talk, and just enough fangirl energy to keep things interesting.
