I'm motivated now because I need to work on material here and that is just not the place to do it right now. Not to berch and open. I'm, I'm talking shit on an open mic, which is not what I should be doing. I'm talk, I'm gen. Listen, we're going to find a, we're going to get a show here. The Delray Arts Garage and the people who volunteer there is a wonderful thing. Let me just say that the people that volunteer at the Delray Arts Garage are wonderful human beings by every account. They care about the arts. They. It is a great space that I hope to be a positive find. I hope to be a positive impact on. As a new Delray resident. I like this article because I'm always interested in Kaylee Cuoco. Kaylee Cuoco. What a name. That name has to be real. Kaylee Cuoco. Take that for a ride. Great name to say. I, I don't know. I always thought it was Haley Cuoco. I, I guess I've never said her name out loud. Kaley Cuoco. To me when she was first originally on the scene, it was like blonde girl next door, you know, teenage crush for any young pre adolescent man. And it kind, you know, she, she kind of her public Persona to me always seems smarter than the roles she played. It's almost like she. The TV version of the girl from the Mockingbird series. What's her name? I can't believe I remembered Mockingbird movie and that's like the, the sub name for the movie. What's her name? I'm. I'm cr. I'm going crazy to kill a mockingbird. No, that's not what we're talking about. It's the movie where District Five. They. Oh my God, what a brain fart to start the. I was doing well. Mocking J. It was. Mocking J was the. The Hunger Games. My God, why did I remember it's the Hunger Games mocking J part 1. Why did that hit me? It always felt like Kaylee Cuoco was getting the roles on TV that Jennifer Lawrence got in movies. Didn't it feel. Doesn't they, don't they feel she like feel like the, the, the TV version? I don't know what separates Jennifer. Jennifer Lawrence from Kaley Cuoco. They both are successful, so I guess nothing. Kaylee Cuoco, name drops rude a Lister who snubbed her on TV set. Quote, I was terrified. Now I don't read these before. Obviously, as you saw how well prepared I was to name drop Jennifer Lawrence, one of the biggest celebrities on earth. To me when I read this, this is a bait and switch to me. I've read enough page 6 items to know that Kaylee Cuoco, name drops a Lister who snubbed her on a TV set. I, I'm gonna say this is a Lister who snubbed her. At first she went back, oh my God, they hate me. And then they ended up becoming best of friends. It becomes a positive thing for the A Lister. To me this is the old, oh my God, we're getting a cat fight. Nope, it's a cuddle fest. The cat fight to cuddle fest pipeline. Here we go. You. Who do you think it is? I thought at first it was John Ritter, rest in peace because that was her TV dad. She walks on set, he's like, who is this kid? And he's joking around. That would be my thought. Not so charmed. Kaley cuoco claimed Rose McGowan. Wow. Okay. Kaley Cuoco claimed Rose McGowan, snubbed her on the set of Charmed 20 years ago. Oh, this is going to be I was doing a guest star. I was loser, you know, woman number five. And Rose McGowan was the big hot celebrity and she has no time for the lesser thans. And now I'm a big time actor and Rose McGowan is beneath me. Let me beat up on her. That's kind of how it seems. The Big Bang Theory alum. I mean, can I just inform you that Kaley Cuoco is like, has like $50 million in the bank out of men. She was on the Big Bang Theory, the biggest show of all time. So the idea that she needs to like, you know, like rehash with Rose McGowan is actually. Rose McGowan actually might be auditioning, still is waiting in line in a cold office building while Kaley Cuoco is eating grapes on Elysium. And she's bringing this up like, I don't know. This doesn't really look good to me. Let's read on. The Big Bang Theory alum, 40, detailed her terrifying experience joining the WB fantasy drama in 2005 and the not so warm welcome she received from McGowan during a recent episode of Dax Shepard Armchair Expert podcast. You know when you do so many things and you just forget about terrible moments? Cuoco began. Imagine this. I've never met anyone. It's their gallery shoot. Oh my God. Their gallery shoot. I know this is two actors talking and we get like an inside look who's listening to this and being like a gallery shoot. Is that where you like? I don't reading it. She continued. I'm the new girl. You've got alyssa Milano, Rose McGowan, Holly Marie Combs. Oh my God, Holly Marie. She's saying these names. You're Kaylee Cuoco. I've never met them. Think about that. I'm joining their family photo and I'm 21. Yeah, I would say it's scary to run into a series that's been going and you're the new girl. Although the cast gallery shoot went off without a hitch, Cuoco said things got dicey once the co stars took a break for lunch. I walk in that gallery and I'm so freaking nervous. She explained. It's on their lunch break. They're all, they're all in their, in the corners eating. Yeah, okay. People want to be alone. Cco continued. I walk in, Alyssa Milano sees me and I will always tell the story about her. She ran up, she got up, ran over to me, welcome me to the show. Gave me the biggest hug in the world. So happy, so kind. I'll never forget it. But McGowan, 52. She's 52 now and she's hearing this. She's sitting in her living room on page Six. Kaley Cuoco is talking about what she did to her without knowing. She's having, you know, Rose McGowan's having a tough day. She's on her period. She's like, hey, I got this headache I gotta get. I gotta be nice to this new girl. And this new girl's like, yeah, Rose McGowan. I will talk about her for the rest of my life. I. I feel for McGowan on this one. Was not nearly as thrilled to have Cuoco join the hit show according to the 8 Simple Rules alum. Rose was maybe not as happy. I don't know, Cuoco said. I still don't know if she likes me. Yeah, she. She has a dartboard with your picture on it. She throws darts at it every day. I don't know. But Alyssa was amazing. I was terrified. It was a weird thing coming into a show with them in, and I only did the one season. A rep from McGowan did not, did not respond to Page Six for comment. Oh, you think she didn't respond to this? Why is Kayla Kaylee bringing this up? How about you complimentalism like, what on earth about Rose McGowan now that you have to, like, step on her neck Charm Premiere on the WB in October 1998. Milano, 53 and Combs, 52, starred as magical sisters Phoebe and Piper Halloway alongside Shannon Doherty's Peru Holloway. Dy, however, abruptly left the series at the end of season three in May 2001, following rumors of onset problems with Milano. McGowan joined as Paige Matthews for season four to fill the void. So she came in late too. So she's probably nervous herself. I. But it is year eight of the series when the new girl comes in. Kaylee Cuoco dy, sadly passed away. As for Cuoco, she joined Charmed as Billy Jenkins in 25, 2005 for the show's eighth and final season. I don't know, this feels like you're bringing up unnecessary to, to, to vilify McGowan when you're. I mean, there's all this stuff about, you know, punching down. No one really kind of assesses how rich Kaylee Cuoco is with the punching down. And listen, it's nice. Alyssa Milano. I think Alyssa Milano comes up to. Here's my, here's my assumption here. Here's how I would assess this. Alyssa Milano in season eight of Charmed is a producer and actress on the show. I would assume by that time she has ownership of the show. If you're a producer, you got an investment, you have a piece of this pie, and then someone new comes on. You gotta make your new employee feel welcomed. Rose McGowan. That's not her responsibility. So I feel for I. If I was to really, like, look at this. Rose McGowan is your coworker who's having her day and is like, hey, yeah, we got the new girl. Bring her in. I got, you know, things to do after this. I got other parts I gotta apply for. We're in our final season. Alyssa Milano is getting back end. She's getting money. She's got to make sure she's happy because she's like, I've got to make sure all of my worker bees love me, the boss, and say good things about me. It's two totally different mindsets and it's not being acknowledged here. Team not so great Milano, not so bad. McGowan. That's my team. I love this article. Here's the headline that I love because I will say this. You know, we talk about Q rating. What is in curating being a name comes up. What's the first thing you think of? What is the first thing you think of? Candace Cameron Burr. Now what do you think of? You think of full house. Jesus person. That's what I think of. That's me. I don't know what you think of. Candace Cameron Burr, who was the older sister? Full house alum. She was on full house. And then what is it? Cam Cameron is her brother. He's a big Jesus guy. And Candace is also in line with that. Fine. But when I see that name, Candace Cameron Burr, I go, oh. And I see her face with that. Because I. I don't know if the name as much as the face and name when they're put together. I go, jesus. Full house. Here's the title. Katniss Cameron Burr is weirded out by wild visual during sex. So now we have this fun mix of nostalgia, Jesus person and sex. Let's. That is a perfect mix for a page six headline. Because you're going, what has weirded out this Jesus woman from the back in the day? You know what? Because while visual during sex, I'm going to assume it's not that wild. I am in the boat of. Let me click on this because let me see how not wild this visual. What did she see? Like, yo, is there like a. Like a. Is there some molding on the ceiling that Kind of resembles Jesus grinning at her. What's the wild visual that we're all gonna go, Whoa, there's a little curly cue of hair on the shoulder of her partner. Reminder of Uncle Joey going, cut it out. What, what, what is the thing that's such a wild visual that Candace Cameron Burr is going to inform me on? Candace Cameron Burr revealed that thinking about God watching her have sex makes her uncomfortable. Was I right? Did I tell you that this was going to be something that you and I, us, us normies, we're going to go, listen, God can watch me as much as they want and they can judge because no one's judging me more than me. God, just above me. Look at his fat stomach. Oh, my God. Look how quickly he came. Hey, Jared. This is what I created. He's apologizing now. Stop apologizing. You went down on her. She's happy. This is making it worse. Oh, you said. He's saying he'll be ready again in 10 minutes. Just give him a little bit, Let him play with it a little. Don't play with it. Stop it. Put on your shorts, go to bed, cuddle her. God would be so disappointed. Why is he making that face? Jared, stop making that face. Come on, you're not sexy. Go. Go in the funny direction. That's what you do best. Oh, my God. He's getting too tired from doing doggy style. He's taking a break. Jared, stop. That's God watching me have sex. Candace, put a. You know, people say, put away the podcast, Mike. Yeah, we've run out of po. Candace Cameron Burr revealed that thinking about God watching her have sex makes her uncomfortable. I would think God watching me have sex would make them uncomfortable. Yeah, I, I, I, I, I used a, a gender neutral pronoun. That's how progressive I am. That would piss people. God, God. I like when people are like, she would really be, you know, they, they get, they go that way to try and fuck with people. The Full House alum 49 shared the surprising tidbit. I am, let me just say I'm the least surprised person on earth that Candace Cameron thinks of how God feels about her during sex. Imagine if God is just above her. She thinks God's watching. Like, don't, Candace. Candace, don't be too sexual during this sexual experience. I shall smite you. Candace, stop touching your nipple. That's a little too far, Candice. That's how she imagines God watching her. I imagine God watching her, like, whack it off. Being like, oh, my God, my Childhood dreams are coming true. I love Full House. The Full. This is. And here's the thing. Candace Cameron does this, keeps it godlike and civil. Like, her whole conversation is like, as prude as it gets, but in a sexual context. Like, I just think of God thinking about me during sex. And then I come in, I'm like, yeah, God's in the corner splooging all over his. His bedroom from watching you. And then she goes, jared, oh, my God. That is. Thy shall be smited. Oh, my God. This is like a tag team of boring. The full House alum 49, shared the surprise tidbit while discussing purity with Bachelor alum Maddie Pruitt. Maddie Pruitt, who was on the Bachelor and I think was on Peter the pilot season. And that was the. That was the season where Peter's mom got involved and said, don't marry her. She was right. And then she went and married a billionaire. And now she judges other people with how they live their life from literally her mansion. See, I still like, like this podcast, Matty Pruitt's podcast. What you don't understand is, like, there's no failure here. This podcast will exist forever as a fake business and a tax write off for this billionaire family. She'll spend against it all her. All the income from it, which is probably not that much. It'll go forever. It'll be a loss. She'll get to spend money on her business account that's attached to the podcast, and the rich get richer. Like, this is all like, the idea that this is, you know, purity. And Maddie, we talk about Jesus while she's doing, like, tax shit on the side, that this is their. Like, their way that she doesn't have to pay for any of her baby clothes. Still. See, I see. So this is the quote. See, I still a little. But what is. This isn't even a sentence. See, I still a little, but get a visual of like, that's. This is a quote. See, I still a little, but get a visual of like, God watching me have sex weirds me out. Okay? She said with a laugh on the March 3 episode of her eponymous Epipotamus. Eponymous. I don't know that word. Podcast. Let me just say Candace looks great. If I'm God, I'm tuning into her sex, you know, whatever missionary she's doing, right? If I'm God, I'm putting on that channel that. That porn station for, like, you know, the. The beginning, you know, to get me there. And then I'd finish on a different porn. It would be a little bit wilder than Candace doing the prayer hands while she sits motionless on top of her husband, who's fully dressed and having sex through his underwear hole. Candace, who's been married to her husband Valerie Burr since 96, shares three children with him, noted that how she grew up has to do with it. Oh, you think. You think this whole crazy story about how you think of God watching you have sex has a little bit to do with how you were brought up? Yeah, I would say this is. This is. It totally just depends on your upbringing and what your past experiences have been or the things that you were taught as a kid. All those. What would Uncle Danny. What would Danny Tanner think all this. May he rest in peace. You know what? God is sitting next to Danny Tanner watching. Nah, probably not. He. He was like a dad figure to them. Again, I'm almost 50 and some of those adolescent thoughts never quite leave mind. Or those high school teenage thoughts never quite leave your mind. Yeah, I guess. This is the dumbest podcast I've ever read from. I'm giggling at it now. Yeah, we all are. We. We are laughing at you. Whatever. Don't want to think about God watching me have sex. Well, we've just spent 10 minutes on it, she continued. But I'm very comfortable in that sense. Doesn't sound like you are. I have three kids that are in their 20s. She has kids in their 20s. She looks fantastic. Okay. I don't know what God is blessing her with, but good for her. All right, let's do another story. We spent a lot of time on that J Train podcast. Com if you want to send in your story. Also YouTube. I'm putting up stand up every Saturday with vlogs from the road. I have a bunch of vlogs coming up the next three weeks from New York and Vancouver, Seattle, so get subscribed to the YouTube channel. I'm also putting up Love is blind recaps and I'm. Let me just give myself. Let me take my right hand and reach it over my shoulder for a big old pat on the back. I'm putting out a lot right now. I'm producing and that's why that open mic pissed the fuck out of me. I'm starting tonight. I'm gonna produce a comedy night. It's gonna be like a Monday, so if you come. Or maybe I'll. Sunday. Sunday's a great night for comedy in my belief. But then football season start. Maybe we do it until football season every Sunday at the Arts Garage. I. I still haven't Even contacted them. But I'm. I'm motivated. Okay. David and Victoria Beckham defy estranged son Brooklyn's no contact order to wish him happy birthday. Here's. Here's what I from this headline. As you know, David and Victoria Beckham are not talking with their son Brooklyn, who married a billionaire's daughter. It seems as though they had issues at the wedding. The story from the wedding's actually, like, wild, if true, crazy, if true. That Mark Anthony the singer was like, I want to bring up the most beautiful woman in the world for their first dance. And it was. And Victoria got up instead of the bride, which is crazy. So he does have like a. A leg to stand on. But they also Brooklyn Beckham and his no job, no career. That is only because of a result of his parents. They're like, hey, we. We put a lot of money into you. You'll do what we say until the end of time, until we pass away. And when David and Victoria Beckham, it's defy estranged son Brooklyn's no contact order to wish him happy birthday. That's them playing chess. Here's what you do if you're in an argument with someone and everyone knows about it. You are so nice that they're forced to be the piece of shit. This is Victoria being like, oh, it's his birthday. Wish him a grand happy birthday. We would do nothing more. We would love nothing more than to speak to you, talk to you, hug you. And then it's him, the son who's being a misery, who we've given all of our money and investment of time and effort to. Everyone's on their side. This is. This is a power play. David and Victoria Beckham defied their estranged son Brooklyn Beckham's no contact ban to wish him a happy birthday on social media. 27 today. Crying face emoji. Happy birthday Bust. We love you X. The former soccer player pro captioned a selfie on his Instagram stories Wednesday of him and his wife Victoria with Brooklyn in the pool. Yeah, this is a win, Big win. It's him as a kid when better, during better times. Look at he's doing. You know, they're in the pool. I mean, David Beckham looks like he's there for a magazine shoot. The ex Spice Girl singer who also also posted the same photo to her Instagram stories, writing, happy birthday, Brooklyn. We love you so much. This is. This is winning the battle. Yeah, them in the pool, they look amazing. Little baby. Who's going to take his side after this? Who's sitting There caring about Brooklyn. This is a win. This is them assessing dominance with a birthday post. David also shared a black and white photo of him with Brooklyn as a child, while Victoria posted an image of her playing with her eldest child outside. Page Six has reached out to Brooklyn's rep for comment. What's he gonna say? What's he gonna say? I hate those pieces of shit. I guess the only response is this is them trying to win the PR battle. They know what they do to me. They try to run my life. I found a wife who can afford to not talk to them and go and, and live by their rules. Sorry. My wife's a billionaire and I listen to her. Now she has more money than my parents, so I have a new boss. That's what she should come back with. Benny Blanco, who I am a fan of. I am a fan of Benny Blanco and Selena Gomez. I'm a fan of Selena Gomez. Everything I've seen from these two ring positive to me. Detail how they cope with her bipolar disorder and quote, moments of mania. Now I know why this story's happening. This is a serious story. Selena Gomez and husband Benny Blanco candidly discussed managing her bipolar disorder together. Gomez appeared on Tuesday's episode of Blanco's podcast Friends Keep Secrets, and in a conversation with his best friend, Lil Dicky and Lil Dickey's wife, Kristen Battalucco, the former Disney Channel star talked about her mental health issues to me. Why does little Dicky's wife have to be there? This is crazy. I. Yeah, we're doing a double date on a podcast. This is what everyone hopes to see. This is what their biggest fans hope to see. I don't know if I need Lil Dicky's wife there. I think Lil Dicky, who's one of the more talented rappers I've ever heard, loves himself a little too much. He thinks he is the funniest, the, the self adulation he gives himself of being this Larry. I can't stand anyone who tries to tell you how much they're like Larry David. And my feeling on Little Dicky is he does a lot of that. I watched the Sick his show. It was pretty good. And then it gets into how, how kooky he is. And it's like, okay, but you're an amazing. How about you do the rapping thing more? You're amazing at that. I don't need to hear your stance on, you know, how annoying it is to wait for a bathroom at a Starbucks. I don't know. That's maybe me being a maybe I'm a little miserable. And he's Lil Dicky, you know, I don't know. He thinks he's like the funniest person alive. I, I, you do one thing very well and you're, you have a, and it's, and he does rapping funny. He's got some funny stuff in the rap. Okay. On the other hand, let me just say I know why this story's happening. They just had a huge thing make the rounds where Benny Blanco's feet are dirty and he's farting during their initial podcast. The whole story about the initial podcast was, Benny Blanco farts and has dirty feet. And I don't think that's what they told the PR agent to go out with. I don't think they were like, hey, we're going to start with this guy's a big disgusting pig. Put that out to page six. That became the story. And then all these people were saying they should get a divorce. All these people, all these idiot Internet commenters. This is why you shouldn't listen to any dating commenter when it comes to relationships. It's all the most miserable people. I dated a guy with dirty feet. They won't take care of you. They're going to be mean. No, that's stupid. Benny Blanco's a successful guy in his own right. He probably walks outside in the seven acre yard of his Hollywood mansion and that's why his feet were dirty. But it's funny, they were, they're basically like, and I think they didn't like that feedback. So now they're like, hey, let's go serious. Let's remind people, hey, everybody, we deal with moments of mania. I, you know, Selena's got real issues here and that, that is their way of like, remember this when you comment about how we should get a divorce because his feet are dirty. And now, now they've basically weapon. They've given ammo to their defenders. Anytime someone comes after them for the dirty feet, someone will. Now another idiot will comment, hey, you really shouldn't do this when she's dealing with her own mental health issue. You know, like they'll, this is them equipping their army of losers. I mean, I don't need to go on this story. I just think it's interesting that they come out with this very serious story after the whole feet and fart thing, which I disagreed with. I thought that was crazy that any, the whole story was like people were saying they should get a divorce. Oh, really? Are you saying that in your sweatpants, in your one Bedroom apartment in Des Moines. Tragic details of Deadliest Catch star Todd Meadows death reveal. Now, I don't think this is a reveal. You're on a show called the Deadliest Catch, and you pass. If. If the details have nothing to do with the boat. Yeah. Then that. That's a reveal. The tragic details surrounding the death of Deadliest Cat. And I don't mean to be. We're sad. Rest in peace. The tragic details surrounding the death of Deadliest Catch cast member Todd Meadows have been revealed. A spokesperson for the U.S. coast Guard. I mean, he died at sea on a boat that is on a show called the Deadliest Catch. You know, there's an old saying, a lion's gonna. Lion. You go up to a lion to pet it, it's gonna eat you because it's a lion. If you go on a ship to film a show about crab fishermen that's called the Deadliest Catch, we can kind of put it all together. February 25th, just after 5pm local time, watch standers at the Arctic District Command center in Juneau, Alaska, were notified by the fishing vessel. A crew member had fallen overboard. Approximately 170. I mean, that is falling overboard anywhere that Juneau, Alaska, can report on. This is horrific. We're told Meadows was recovered from the water, what, 10 minutes later. They got him out unresponsive, so they administered first aid and attempted to resuscitate him, but were unsuccessful. That is to get the body. That's like. That's crazy. That's like losing your glasses in the ocean. When you dive in and then you reach your hand down, you get them, you're like, oh, my God. I can't believe the current didn't take them away. They took his body to the Dutch harbor. This is. You feel for him. I mean, I'm sure there's people that watch this show. They have a connection to him. They've learned his personality. But this is what you sign up for. This is why I. I think they make a lot of money, and that's kind of what the money's for. The. The organization's currently investigating the situation as it does in all marine casualties and accidents, to uncover. Yeah, this is sad. All right, let's try and end on a happier note. Oh, I mean, there is nothing happier than Megan Fox returns to Instagram. Get it ready, boys. Megan Fox is back. Hide your eyes. God. Megan Fox is back on Instagram. Don't watch these boys go. These. The men are going to their bedroom to go look at Megan Fox. Look hot again. I mean, Megan Fox. These pictures are like Megan Fox basically sees people putting out their thirst traps and is like, okay, fun times over. Because these pictures are unbelievable. I mean, let me also say I like the look. Megan Fox returns to Instagram in a corset shirt and garter, but forgets her pants. Thank really 39 she looks on, hey, the leg. She's got the garters on the, the. I I can't even speak. I saw this picture earlier because she was on comments by celebs. Someone said, is this AI? And she's like, AI could never. So she's feeling it. Megan Fox returned to Instagram with a bang on Tuesday, more than a year after wiping her account clean in December 2024. The actress shared four images from a recent photo shoot. Alongside the pictures, you ominously wrote, everything is more beautiful because we are doomed. I here's the thing about Megan Fox. She is fully dug in. She, she is an example of swimming with the current. She has dark features, dark hair, she's never gone blonde. She's never lightened them up and she's totally digging in. Black tea, black corset, black underwear. She is the black hair. And then put alongside it, everything is more beautiful because we are doomed. She knows the note that she can hit and she hits it over and over again. She knows if you are into dark features and the, you know, this, this idea of chick who's hot who has a cigarette in the senior parking lot, you are obsessed. And she's listen, I it's a lesson for life. Do what you do well and do it again and again. Though she seemed to have forgotten her pants, she did layer up with thigh high black socks and platform heel sandals. I love how Page Six writes. Yeah, this is, this picture is like. And it is one of those things where like she knows she has, she has this finishing move that she can put out at any time. You, you know, wipes her account clean and then she goes, let's show everyone who's number one. That's what she did. This was her letting the world know who's in charge. All right, pop culture Thursday. Back next week, Bo.
Episode: Candace Cameron Says God Watches Her In The Bedroom and MORE POP CULTURE STORIES
Host: Jared Freid
Theme: Humorous riffing and commentary on trending pop culture stories from Page Six, with a focus this week on celebrity awkwardness, religion, fame, and media narratives.
Jared Freid delivers his signature blend of lighthearted yet sharp-witted commentary on the week's most sensational and bizarre pop culture stories. Diving into headlines about Kaley Cuoco's on-set snub, Candace Cameron Bure's divine anxieties during sex, Beckham family drama, Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco's relationship challenges, and Megan Fox’s return to Instagram, Jared turns gossip into thoughtful, comedic, and sometimes cutting observations about fame, image, and public performances.
"God just above me—look at his fat stomach. Oh my God. Look how quickly he came. This is what I created...He’s apologizing now. Stop apologizing. You went down on her, she’s happy—this is making it worse!” (19:55)
"This is them playing chess. Here’s what you do if you’re in an argument with someone, and everyone knows about it, you are so nice that they’re forced to be the piece of shit." (31:05)
"It’s a lesson for life: do what you do well and do it again and again." (46:17)
Jared Freid maintains an irreverent, self-aware, and occasionally biting tone throughout the episode. He blends genuine curiosity with skepticism, mixing empathy, roasting, and cultural critique with sharp comedic timing and creative analogies. The humor ranges from the sophomoric (sex jokes, self-deprecation) to the incisive (media analysis, celebrity power games). His language is casual, conversational, peppered with asides and meta-observations about the nature of gossip itself.
This Pop Culture Thursday is a whirlwind tour of the odd, self-inflicted wounds and PR maneuverings of celebrity life, as refracted through Jared Freid’s comic and critical lens. From prudish confessions to image overhauls, feuds rebranded as heartfelt gestures, and the relentless logic of online branding, Jared finds every story is not really about the headlines—it’s about performance, image control, and “winning” the never-ending public relations game.
