Jared Freed
You're a nosy. You want the full sitch? Come to Pop Culture Thursday. Hello and welcome to the J Train Podcast. This is J Train Jared Freed coming to you live from Los Angeles, California. That's right. Every Thursday is a Pop Culture Culture Thursday, where I go to Page Six and click on some headlines and riff on the headline and the subject matter and the news story. We do a few news stories. I do have one ad here. We'll get to the ad. I got shows. I'm in Brea, California, this weekend. That's why I'm in la. I'm also in LA for a very cool and fun reason. Two fun reasons that I'm gonna encourage you. This is. We're okay, we're in Plug City. So I'll do the ad, I'll do Plug City, then we'll get to Page Six. That's the premise of the show. I wanted to do something that I kind of learned yesterday. I. I've known this that, like, listen, I'm already not doing it. I should probably restart the pot. I'm not gonna restart it. I'm not restarting it. I'm sorry. If you're new here, this is a daily show. I just want to make sure that if someone is new here and I hope every episode, I have that hope in me, that glimmer of hope that there's someone new going. Let me see if this podcast is worth my time. This podcast is a daily show Monday through Friday, and it's to put your brain on the shelf. It is the show that I hope gets you away from whatever you're going through and gives you 20 minutes at a minimum to just kind of chill. On Thursdays, we do pop culture stories. I just read the headlines that are interesting to me, and part of why they're interesting to me is why they're interesting to you. Why are these things called clickbait? Because the bait works. So it's a little bit about that, you know, and also just reading some stories and giving you kind of my first thought on them. So that's today's show. I learned that explaining the show in the beginning, in the first minute of the show, which I failed at kind of. I learned from doing the On Purpose with Jay Shetty podcast yesterday. Jordana Abraham and I of you up podcast. We went on his show, a huge podcast. So we kind of. This whole trip is because of the ability to go on that show. And if you. I. And now we go to Plug City, because tomorrow I'll give you kind of the Inside scoop on what it's like to go to Jay Shetty's house, which is what we did. It was unbelievable. He is the nicest guy. And then we went to Whitney Cummings house and we taped a U up episode from her house. So I have a lot of Hollywood tales to tell you. So I'm doing that on Patreon. That's the Friday episode.

And now we're going to go to page six and let's read some. And also if you have any article, suggestions, if you have something in the news that you want to hear me riff on. Jared Free or J train podcast@gmail.com J train podcastmail.com. okay, I'm looking at a headline right away. We're right in it. Fight for his life. I read medics worked on ozzy Osbourne for hours in desperate battle to save the rock legend report. That's kind of a sad story to start with. We'll go to trending. I mean, and then I'm like, I'll go to trending now. Number one trending story. Medics worked for hours on nausea. Okay, let's do that article. Yeah, let's. I mean, Ozzy Osborne passing. Very sad. I mean, we just talked about him here on the J train podcast and just what a. I, I don't like, give. I give them credit for doing something outside the box because it seems as though that's been his, like, whole life. I'm gonna work outside the box. I Read the, I read the, the obituary in the New York Times and it was suggested because I listened to the Tony Kornheiser podcast. He suggested to read it. And it's really good. It's an amazing life this guy led. And, and just the way he changed reality tv, how he opened up the door for people, you know that, oh, we do want to know what the everyday odds and ends are of the guy who bit a head off of a bat. We do want to know because I think before that, you know, celebrities would go, oh, who would care? I would go, who would care? And then you watch that show and you go, oh, they are fun. This is cool. Paramedics fought for hours to save Ozzy Osborne before the Black Sabbath front man's death on Tuesday. According to a new report. A Thames Valley air ambulance landed in a field close to the Rockers mansion at 10:30 in the morning. The Daily Mail claim the outlet alleged medics tried and failed to save the singer's life for two hours. Oh, I mean he lived a life. I, I, I'm, you know, I don't, I'm not saying it's not sad. A spokesperson for the organization told the Daily Mail. We can confirm that our helicopter was dispatch advanced critical care at an incident near. Okay. Locals told the outlet that they were worried something was serious was happening when they saw the chopper. Yeah, he, I mean the guy was not really, he never looked really well. Osborne family members reps have yet to respond to page six requests for comment. The Grammy winners loved ones released a statement Tuesday revealing Osborne's death with more sadness than mere words can convey. And they did seem like a close family. Like that was the thing. Like you, you had this one image of him and if you read the obituary, I mean like he was doing some drugs. Like this guy partied, like to be, to live this long is kind of a miracle based on the way this guy lived his life. He just did a concert like a month ago. All right, so let's go a new, let's do a more fun story than that. The Internet is moving at a snail's pace. This story will not go away. The astronomer CEO because this guy, I mean people are obsessed with this story. And I get it. Rich guy, you, you feel like you're, you can't be wrong with talking shit about a rich guy who's cheating. But she's cheating too. You know, the, the, the mistress. Neighbors slam. Disgusting. Andy Byron as ex astronomer CEO's wife hides out in $2.4 million mansion. Okay, let's do a couple things based on what's been going on with this story. Okay. We were. I was led to believe that this guy would be in a mansion that's worth more than $2.4 million. I'm not saying that's nothing. I'm just saying the way if you think of, like, where this story lands in your brain. Rich CEO cheats on his wife. You're thinking he's in at least a $10 million mansion. So this guy was, like, you know, doing well, but in no way is he as rich as I would have assumed. Former astronomer CEO Andy Byron and his wife, Megan Kerrigan. Byron's neighbors find his alleged infidelity disgusting. What were the neighbors gonna say? What were the neighbors going to say? Oh, he's a really nice guy. Oh, he slept around with his wife. We don't know their sleeping arrangements. Like, what do you think they were gonna say? But believe the family deserves privacy as they navigate overnight fame and heartbreak. If I lived in that neighborhood, again, $2.4 million mansion, I'm not exactly like, listen, as a guy who was at Jay Shetty's house yesterday, which was. I've seen some mansions in my day and Whitney Cummings. I mean, I'm not gonna name names and, you know, and let you know. I'm just saying, $2.4 million mansion. If I live on that block, I'm. No comment. They need privacy. Because if anything this story has taught us is that we are way closer to be we. This story has taught us that we are way closer to the camera being pointed at us than we want to believe. Because if you live on the same block as $2.4 million mansion, then you are in the same class of people that people feel very comfortable bringing down and think that you got enough that they can trash you no matter what mistakes you might make. And people cheat. People make mistakes. People do these things. So the idea that this guy did something. He did something wrong and horrible, but, you know, he's not going to jail. So I. I like, you know, what do they. If I was the neighbor, I am not talking to the. The news. Those who live in the Pairs Kennebunk main neighborhood. That's where they live. That's maybe it's a. Okay, I take it back. If it's a $2.4 million vacation home and Kennebunk, then they're doing very well. Just over the week after Andy's alleged affair with an employee was exposed to the Coldplay concert that everyone has seen the viral. They say yeah, everyone's seen it. I listen, I'm in Bloomington, Indiana and though I mentioned I my opening, you know, gag on the Bloomington show was hey, yeah, we are taping. So if anyone's cheating on their wife, if anyone's a high powered CEO, just fair warning. And everyone laughs. So like this is to me, CEO who cheated on his wife at the Coldplay concert. You're almost like Kramer level fame. Like you are Kimmy Gibbler. You're, you're a main character on a sitcom. You're, you know, you're like the family do not want to talk about it. One angry local explained before asking the outlet to leave the exclusive street next to the web and webinet. I can't Webinat golf club. So I mean Kennebunk, very nice area in Maine. That's like where the bushes go. According to the Daily Mail Megan filed the duo's $1.4 million fled. Oh, okay. Yeah, I take it back. They got some dough. According to the Daily Mail, Megan fled their $1.4 million home in Northborough, Mass. Very nice area. And has been hiding out at their $2.4 million main mansion while holding crisis talks about her marriage. What's the talk to me? The talk is how we ending this? Let's get out of this. Multiple family members were seen going in and out of the four bedroom, four bathroom, 4,000 square foot property over the weekend, including her older sister Mara, per the outlet. It's unclear whether Andy, 50, came to speak to Megan, also 50, following the incident. This is just this guy. I mean talk about unexpected. Like they, I just love that the neighbors Slam disgusting. This is a, this is a bad headline. This is like this headline to say the neighbors say it's disgusting. Like what else are they going to say? Okay, let's go to this story. Okay. My friend Sasha Baron Cohen is in the news. The Sasha Baron Cohen who heckled me and you can see it on my YouTube channel. Sasha Baron Cohen debuts ripped and hairless physique after Isla Fisher divorce. This is not AI very nice. So he's on the COVID of Men's Fitness. Let me just say he's an in shape dude and he's tall. I having met him in person and seen him, he is very tall. He's got height. Sacha Baron Cohen showed off his eye popping physique in a cover shoot for Men's Fitness uk. In a sneak peek of the August issue shared on Instagram Wednesday, the actor who played the MCU's newest SU, he's playing Mephisto display. When did this happen? Is that a spoiler? Who plays the MCU's newest super villain? Mephisto displayed his oiled up abs while pumping iron. Our photo. When did that come out? I'm a Marvel guy in a sneak. I'm like upset this happened. I didn't know this. I didn't even. I thought the Mephisto thing was a joke. Online Sasha Barrett going Other photos showed the ultra ripped Borat star doing pull ups and posing in the gym after bulking up for his recently debuted role on Marvel Disney's series Ironheart. Why did that show do that badly that that didn't even like make the news? In the caption, the magazine teased its interview with the King of Comedy about the jaw dropping physical transformation. That is not a jaw dropping physical transformation. There is not one person who thought Sacha Baron Cohen was 30% away from what we're seeing. This guy's a tall, slender guy. No, no, no. Don't say jaw dropping. Cohen, 53, shared the post on his Instagram stories, joking, this is not AI. I'm really, I really am egotistical enough to do this. That's funny. In another slide, he boasted, some celebs use Ozempic, some use private chefs, other use personal trainers. I did all three. Again, funny. Good line. That's the way you do it. He also quipped that he was hard line hard launching his midlife crisis before hilariously debuting his new character, middle aged man who replaced beer with protein shakes. How many captions did this guy do? This guy really got ahead of it. He made every joke before you could make it. That is good for Sasha. I mean, the one thing based on my heckling experience with Sacha Baron Cohen, he does like being the center of attention. He does like making the joke. He does like being funny. The Dictator star reportedly divulged in the COVID story that he that he was previously wasn't in physical prime condition. Cohen described himself prior to the transformation as having the core strength of an arthritic jellyfish. No, no you didn't. You've always been in shape. Stop this. In order to get in shape, the comedy icon reached out to Matthew McConaughey for a recommend. Oh come on. It's funny that like Sasha Baron Cohen like knows what a douche would look like and then says, oh, how did I get in? I reached out to Matthew. Matthew McConaughey. He looked like a ruler straight up and down. Alfonso the angry trainer Moretti recalled to the outlet of making Sasha Cohen stripped down to his underwear during their first zoom meeting. To me, that's not impressive when you go from ruler to jacked ruler. Still, the trainer could see an athlete in hiding. Yeah, come on. He's six foot five, of course, with a strong jawline. I don't like this. They're retelling the story in a way that is not how I would tell it. I'd be like, good looking, in shape. Guy gets better looking and more in shape after divorce. This story is kind of like a win for me. And I don't cheer against celebrities. I'm not like. But Meghan Markle's exclusive $100 million Netflix deal is done, but more TV projects are coming soon from her and Prince Harry. Well, I guess it's not a win. I just think, like, them to getting, like, the Netflix deal is kind of what's wrong with entertainment because they've done nothing to entertain but be themselves. You know, we're just interested in a prince and a princess who's been plucked from obscurity. We are interested in that. To get like, a hundred million dollar deal from Netflix. Like, why not start with like a $10 million, you know, like, you go, is this it? Is this is it? Is there no win in this? And yeah, you're like, jared, you're making this personal. Yeah. Oh, yeah, I am. I am. I'm gonna say that, you know, because if they started a podcast tomorrow, you go, yeah, I'll check it out. They'd have a deal before they even started it. And you don't even know what they. Their voices sound like. Meghan Mark. Meghan Markle has halted her Confessions of a Female Founder podcast. And that's the other thing. Founder, like, the. Just don't tell us you're fat when you're skinny. You know, like, don't do that. We're not stupid. Don't. Don't be. Sasha Baron Cohen. Oh, my body was transformed. Even though he didn't say that, you know, Page Six kind of said that. But, like, you go, you know, don't tell me you're a founder. When we know how this whole thing got found. As her multimillion dollar Netflix deal with Prince Harry comes to its end. Multiple sources tell Page Six. As Page Six exclusively revealed earlier this month, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are poised to sign a first look deal with the streamer with their. When their exclusive deal ends later this year. So. So they're getting more. I lost. They're getting more money. They're set to follow in the footsteps of Former President Barack Obama and his wife Michelle Obama, whose production company Higher Ground now has a similar deal with Netflix. So here's what this means. Basically, Netflix is like, hey, you are going to produce shows for us and we'll give you money to do that. And without having any experience in producing shows or making any entertainment that anyone has bought into, that's what they're doing. And they're basically doing that because they're going, people want to watch you no matter what, no matter what you do. So if your name's behind it, that's all we need. And, and that's like the depressing part of it. When you go, Barack Obama and Barack and Michelle Obama, you go, at least, you know, okay, they work their way up to something. We, you know, I, I, if they put their name behind like a National Geographic, you know, type of thing where you learn about the, you know, the government. And it was something like that, you know, you go, okay, I can see how we got here with Meghan Markle and Harry. You go, how did we get here? Oh, because you have a following on Instagram. That was it. And we like royalty. And you guys aren't even that anymore. A source told us there are more TV projects coming soon with both the Duke and Duchess. How are they trusting them, though? Like, how do you look at someone who goes, yeah, I'm gonna do a founders podcast. And you're like, who became famous via being the wife of a royal and going, oh, they know what the people want. Like, don't you go, oh, they have no idea. That's the. I'm an idiot. I'm an idiot. I guess I'm an idiot. Now we're going to go to this story. Vanessa Trump hits posh Southampton. Vanessa Trump hits posh Southampton with family and six black SUVs of Secret Service at fancy eatery. At that point, if I'm also at that restaurant, I'm like, I got to get out of here. Six black SUV's. That's a huge, that's six huge cars. Vanessa Trump is turning heads in the Hamptons, but it's her security detail that's drawing the most attention. It's a lot of one one lane roads there. Sources tell Page Six that Donald Trump's junior's ex wife, who's currently wedding bell serious with golf star Tiger woods, was in Tony Southampton over the weekend with a sizable Secret Service pre presence in Tower. I mean, one source tells us they spotted Don Jr. S ex wife, 47, and their teen daughter, aspiring golf great Kai, 18, at buzzy new hotspot Les Goulet sur Mer. This all sounds like it's out of a comedy about the Southampton they had six black SUVs of Secret Service in Tower I do you really think Donald Trump Jr. S wife, ex wife needs that much? I listen, I do think she needs security. I do. I agree with her needing security. Six SUVs, I think are five too many for her because you think there's like a, like, like, like a Green Beret army coming after her. Like if someone's coming after her, it's like a rogue one person crazy. The law enforcement may have stood out, but they were being polite, we hear. No, they were a bunch of assholes. Of course. I mean I don't envy anybody involved in that. I don't envy her having six SUVs. I don't have any. The daughter I feel for everyone this story Fans confused by Gwyneth Paltrow's appearance and New Cooking Video Something happened. I just love the idea of like hey, I'm making some grilled chicken today. And then someone's response to a grilled chicken video is what's happened to her face? Something's happened. And you're like that is like the most insulting thing. And it's like everyone. I don't listen. I'm not going to speak for Gwyneth Paltrow, but I would. I do believe more people are seeing the comments than maybe people believe the especially the way people comment. Can you believe what she looks like? It's like can you think? Let's just say let's live in a world where Gwyneth Paltrow does look at her comments and then someone's talking about her as if she's not in the room. She's in the room. Just call her Gwyneth Putro. Fans were left bewildered at Gwyneth Paltrow's fuller looking upper lip. Okay, I'm looking at her. She is doing a pouty upper lip. Oh I guess call her Gwyneth Poutro. The goop founders facial features looked noticeably different in a cooking video she posted to her Instagram Saturday. I I can see what they're looking at. It does look like in the clip, Paltrow has was seen with poutier lips while preparing her version of Korean steak and eggs. Do we really think she's waking up and having Korean steak and eggs made with love, a little heat and packed with flavor? She wrote in the caption of the post. While some Instagram users complimented the actress skills in the Kitchen. Others flooded the comments section with questions about her seemingly altered appearance. While what have you done on your lips? One curious person asks with another inquiring, is there something with her lips? I mean, these people are rude. I think it's, it's interesting. Like, does someone see their. I guess they don't even put the person's name who commented. So they're just unnamed commenter. But like, if you, if you ran into Gwyneth Paltrow and were like, what happened to your lips? You'd be rude. Something happened to her Top lift with a thinking emoji. A social media user commented, I really wish she'd be honest about the work she's had recently because she sells anti aging products. A netizen wrote, she looks amazing. But like, be honest, especially when that's your brand is what that's what your brand is all about. That is. That is a point that is well taken. I But I don't think it's meant to be put on her Korean steak and eggs video. Mm, looks so yum. But don't tell me you've done your lips too. Added another that's the sneak attack. Mmm, those steak and eggs look great. Oh, your lips. What's going on with those? One troll even joked that she has Marge Simpson lips. Well, I don't know about Mar. It's a little Margie. Okay, I think she looks good. I don't know. But now I'm seeing pictures of the Before, Paltrow's rep did not immediately respond to page Like I. My question to this is, why does Gwyneth Paltrow need to do this? That's my question. Gwyneth. If I'm. If I'm Gwyneth Paltrow, why do I need to go on my Instagram and teach people how to make steak and eggs? Like, to me, that's the crazier thing. She has enough money to get her by and you go, I'm not one to count other people's money, but let's just assume Gwyneth Paltrow has the dough. I mean, what is she getting from this? So then you go, well, she doesn't see her comments. Well, that's the only way I could understand her doing these videos. The only way that would make sense for me to have the only way that would. The only reason for Gwyneth Paltrow to make a steak and eggs how to video would be because she's so addicted to the dopamine rush she gets from a post doing well and going viral because Outside of that, is she really motivated by, like, you're going to get $5 million for this post? She's not getting $5 million for that post. Let's say it's a hundred grand to post a video. It's more than that, though. She probably got more than that. If it's brought to you by whatever, you know, steak or eggs company or whatever pan she's cooking in. It just doesn't make sense because then you have to deal with all the comments by people who don't know you about your lips. And it wasn't even what this post. So I don't know. I. Like, if I did an interview with Gwyneth Paltrow, that would be my first question. Gwyneth, you do cooking videos? Why? What do you get from that? Do you like reading the comments? Do you really think we need you to tell us how to cook steak and eggs? Because there are food people out there? I don't know. I. I don't know what it is. I mean, because there is an amount of money, but I don't know, maybe that's who. That's what makes you make that amount of money. Because if I had $50 million, I think I disappear to this, like, this kind of one corner of the earth and just do. I would just do standup. I would just do standup. I show up on stage, whoever was there, and I would have fun. But I do, again, like, I don't know. Like, would I be saying, hey, assemble the group chat? Would I be on, hey, I'm gonna be here or there? Like, would I care that there was 10 people there at my show? But I still got to. I don't think I would. I don't know. It's such. It's, like, interesting to me. And it's like, I. I don't. I think more celebrities need to be asked, what the fuck are you doing? Why would you do this to yourself? All right, we got time for one more. We're at the 30 minute mark. I'll do one more story. Because we got started kind of slow. We've done Brooklyn Beckham. I'm done with that story. I really have no reason for it. These trending stories, there's one about. I mean, people really love anything to do with this. Andy Byron, astronomer, CEO. People really just, like, get off to that story. Oh, here's something. Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi selling their UK farm for 30 million less than a year after Move to Escape Trump. What a headline. I mean, did they really move to escape. Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi have already listed their UK home for 30 million. Just one year after moving across the pond, the couple is selling their farm estate in Cotswold. Oh, Cotswold is like a really nice area. That's where like the so house has like a farm out there for 10 million more than the purchase price. Listing agent Andrew Barnes of UK Sotheby's International Reality confirmed to the Wall Street Journal Tuesday. To me this story is actually put together by the real estate agent and he goes to his pr. The real estate company Sotheby's has a PR company and they're like how do we get the word out there that this house is. Because when you're dealing with a, you know, a 30 million or they bought it for 30, they're selling it for 40. When you're trying to sell a 30 million dollar mansion, you need actual news outlets to put that word out there. You need the world to know. The former Talk show host, 67, the actress, 52, reportedly did major renovations to the 43, 43 acres dubbed Kitesberg Kitesbridge Farm which they purchased in spring 2024. So they show them at the farm. You know Ellen, she did a standup special where she kind of like it was like her goodbye to stand up and her goodbye. It is surprising that they would be the couple that like needs, that feels the need to like goodbye America. We're not living in Trump's America. Ellen DeGeneres finally confirms Trump influenced her sudden move to the UK. We are staying here. That's to me that doesn't make sense. Cuz her special was a lot of like kind of like right leaning, anti cancel culture stuff if I remember it correctly. But I don't know. The rustic home with modern finishes is comprised of several structures, some of which are connected by enclosed glass walkways and total 16,000 square feet of living space. The home, the main home originally built in the 1700s has six bedrooms, connects to a two bedroom. I don't. They probably got there and were like what do we need all this house for? You think that's how they talk to each other? Do you think you say that when you have a. You didn't think of that before moving in? Oh. The duo known for flipping houses reportedly bought brought in 70 workers. Well here again this is, this is me saying they took a headline to make it political to get you to click on it. They wanted some people like hearing that someone left the country. People, if you're of a certain political leaning, you like hearing that celebrity left the country to escape Trump. And look at one year in, they're selling it already. They hated it. And it's like the real story if they're known for flipping houses is they bought this house, fixed it up, and they're looking to make 10 million bucks, which actually makes more sense to me. Reportedly bought brought in 70 workers to complete ren completely renovate the estate in just four and a half months, despite contractors telling them it couldn't. It could be an 18 month job. Yeah, they said, you're, we're going to throw money at this.
