Hello, everyone.
I hope this works.
I'm so excited to be here with you guys today.
We are celebrating six months of the Brett Cooper Show, and God has blessed us with an impeccable news cycle for this occasion.
So, I'm so excited to talk about that.
We have Obama on Michelle's podcast, we have Megan and Harry ranking in the lowest of the rankings on Netflix, the unprecedented ranking, is what the news is calling it.
And of course, we have to talk about the Cold Play concert.
Okay, guys, so surprise, we are in a new set.
I am very excited to show you guys this.
So nesting has been in full force right now.
And I think I posted on my story last night.
The nursery for the baby is basically finished.
Like I'm waiting on the rocking chair and I think I need to hang like one more picture.
But basically that's all finished.
And I've moved on to everything else that I can do, which included deciding to move the studio, which was in our guest suite out of the guest suite into another building on our property.
Because, you know, when you have a baby, family wants to come and visit, I think my in-laws will be here more often than not, more often than they have been in the past.
So I was like, maybe we should have some extra room for guests and like have that in-law suite as an actual in-law suite.
So we pulled the studio out of there.
And over the last week, we have been setting it up here in this other building.
And I don't feel like it's fully finished yet.
So, we're gonna, we might be changing things as we go.
Like, I know that you know, you can like see a light in this painting here, which we actually had on the old set.
So, we're gonna like break through the grass or glass and change some things.
So, you guys can be in the comments and you can try to figure out what we've changed over time.
And maybe I'll win a prize.
I don't know.
I'll come up with something, but you can be like spotting like where's Waldo style.
Um, but I think it's so much fun and I love it.
And I think this is like such an upgrade, too, because I don't know if I ever actually like told this story on the show, but the set that we were currently or that we used to be in, like I said, was just like in our guest suite.
And I put that together with my manager and her dad, and Alex, and a friend of mine in like two weeks, because I had this dead period.
And I was like, okay, well, I basically have like 30 days to start a new show when we were trying trying to figure out our finances.
I was like, okay, I have like a little bit of runway because I got a paycheck and I'm like, gonna invest all of this money and buy the camera equipment and do all of this.
So I got all of the like tech stuff, which was such a pain.
And I did all this research.
And then I realized, oh, well, I need like a place to film.
And so it was literally us like.
Hanging shiplap up on the wall like using my head with like a staple gun like trying to get that stuff up there
Throwing books up on floating shelves just like hoping that it was gonna work anyway.
So it was done like literally within three days um and i'm so glad that you guys loved the set for the last six months i think it was a great set but i'm excited now to have something that's a little more permanent and colorful and that we were able to do in something longer than like 48 hours um
Also, you might be able to see, we have some like special things on here.
I also have a bunch of my books, but you're going to see a bunch of old books up on the set, which is really special because you might be thinking, okay, Brett, you probably just went to a thrift store and bought a bunch of old books.
no my father oh my gosh i don't even know how many years ago but it was around the time that my parents were divorcing he spent literally a year compiling an entire collection of rare and first or early edition books basically putting together like an entire western canon um and so there are great books of philosophy some of the really important novels He has so many things from Greek and Roman times, all of this stuff.
And so those are all of the books that he put together.
He built this entire collection for me.
It is, gosh, I don't even know how many books.
This is like a smidgen of what he put together.
So I wanted to have that up.
on the shelf.
You guys don't often hear about my dad, but my dad is very, very well-read, very academic.
This is like what he loves.
The reason why I love to read so much comes from him and the fact that he would read to me every single night and read me poetry every single night.
So parents, if you're out there, your kids will remember that and they will benefit.
So we have all of those up there.
We have some of my favorite books, pictures of me and Alex, professional yapper over here.
Anyway, so it's tons of fun.
So if you see things changing, again, point them out.
But yes, that is the biggest update of six months of the show.
We also had the New York Times profile come out yesterday, which was so insane.
It was really fun to get photos from a bunch of my family members.
who actually subscribe and get like the in-person version of the New York Times.
And they're like, you're above the fold.
This is so cool.
So that was so fun.
Like I captioned it on Instagram.
I felt like I was literally standing on business
Sunday business.
So that was very fun.
So thank you guys for helping me celebrate that.
But truthfully, you guys have made this the most incredible first half of the year.
I could literally tear off talking about it.
It has been such a race.
Like I feel like we have been like all gas, no breaks since we started at the end of January.
And I had no idea what to expect.
I had no idea if you guys would like the show.
I had no idea what the show was even going to be.
I'm so excited that I'm like finally doing a live stream.
I feel like we've gotten into a really good rhythm here.
And I just kind of was flying by the seat of my pants and felt really grateful to have a great, very small team around me.
Literally at the beginning, it was just Alex and a producer and my manager and we were figuring it all out.
I think I've told you guys that like I came home one day and I was like, oh my god, Alex, I don't even like, I don't have advertisers.
Like, I don't even know how we're going to make money because you can't get monetized on YouTube for a while.
What are we going to do?
And he just like figured it out.
And as you guys might have seen in the New York Times profile, he's now working with a great company that is selling the ads and he's advising them.
But he was able to hand that over so that he can go back to his like actual business because he has also been working like the equivalent of three jobs and helping me run this, which I'm just so grateful for.
So now he can like go and do what he actually wants to do.
And we did the tour, which was so much fun.
And I got to meet all of you guys.
And we did all of it while I was pregnant, which was so fun.
And I've had people ask that.
So I thought I would address, but I've had some people be like, was this super hard?
Like, how were you doing it?
But I've had so much fun that I have like, and I've also been really, really blessed with an easy pregnancy, but it has been so much fun.
And I have had so much motivation and energy thanks to you guys that it has been like the greatest distraction when things have been kind of hard.
And when I felt queasy or tired, like I have something that I want to get up and do.
And, you know, I have a tour that I want to do and all of these things.
And so thank you guys for that.
And this has been the most fun season.
I feel like I'm slowly now like getting a a bit more tired.
Like my body is like off its axis kind of and I feel very disjointed.
And so we're kind of like landing the plane a little bit as I head into maternity leave, which by the way, we'll make like a more formal announcement.
I'll have pre-recorded things that are coming up.
I'm trying to see if I can get my mother to do an interview.
She said that she wants to do like a a while ago, she was like, if we do like a video when we're canning together or something like that, like then maybe I'll do a thing.
So anyway, I'm going to convince her.
So we might have that during maternity leave and it'll be, you know, a bunch of pre-recorded episodes so that I can get back into the swing of things.
But one of the things that is so incredible about this being my job and that I feel so blessed about is the fact that this is something that I, again, genuinely love to do and will be excited to get back to.
I've also seen comments from people being like, you know, you used to do like two episodes a day and now it's two a week.
That was intentional because I knew I was pregnant, obviously before you guys did.
And so I was scaling back so that this would be something that is, you know, easy to maintain, that is still fun for me and easy to get back into.
So that will all be happening soon.
I see a bunch of comments coming in, and I've literally just been yapping up a storm.
But I'll get to those in a second.
But I just want to say we've had so much going on and I've needed the energy.
So thank God I had Paleo Valley meatsticks.
Look at that guy's live ad transition.
Now, guys, Paleo Valley meatsticks, they are not the meat sticks that you grew up with.
Paleo Valley makes theirs with 100% grass-fed beef from small regenerative American farms so you can feel good about what you are eating.
They have stripped out all of the junk, no preservatives, no gluten, no soy, no sugar, no dairy, no GMOs.
And so whether you are road tripping or working late or just running around like I've been for the last six months, these beef sticks give you the high protein energy without the crash.
Keto, paleo, carnivore, whatever your vibe, Paleo Valley fits right in.
They also come in five bold flavors.
We have all of them.
We have the original jalapeno summer sausage, garlic summer sausage, which is my personal favorite, and then teriyaki.
So there really is something for everyone.
I literally keep them in my purse.
I keep them in my car.
They were so great when I was feeling nauseous and just needed to shove food in my mouth.
My mom literally the other day.
She was living with us for like the first three weeks of her being here.
So she was snacking, going through our pantry.
She was like, Brett, these are the best meatsticks I have ever had.
So trust Diane on that.

Okay, so I basically just did the whole like show update and talked about the last six months, what you can anticipate.
But before we move into the actual stories, I feel like I owe you another baby cow update because I've seen the comments and I know that you guys care far more about our baby cow that we have lovingly named P-Pants
than some of these socio-political issues.
So P-Pants is doing great.
Our big update is that after,
oh gosh, so he's about a week old now.
I said nine days old, probably.
I think actually, yes, like specifically like nine days old.
So he was not latching on his mom.
You guys know that.
Her udders never descended.
She was like producing a tiny bit of milk, but he like literally could not even grab it.
She was also just way too young.
It was an accident.
It was an accidental pregnancy and she was a a teen mom, as I said.
So she was just not ready.
And so she was not accustomed to this.
She was kind of like kicking him off of her.
And so my mom had said, you know, you need to bottle feed him.
And thank God she was here.
I mean, she's such a blessing, but she has bags and bags and bags of freeze dried raw milk from her cows back in Idaho that she had had just in her moving boxes.
And so we were able to start bottle feeding him.
And he was taking the bottle and it was great, but we were going to have to be bottle feeding him for six months, three times a day, and doing that postpartum with a new baby while running businesses.
My mom was like, I feel like this is not going to be sustainable.
And so my mother being my mother was like, let's just buy a milk cow.
And obviously she has milk cows right now, but none of them are actively producing or in milk, as you say.
And so like one of them is pregnant, two are dry, one's too young.
And so she had made contact with this woman and had already known that she wanted to buy a cow from this woman so that she could actually have some milk for the next six months or so before this cow gives birth, the one that she currently has.
And she was like, let me just move up the timeline.
Let's just go buy this cow now and see if we can graft this baby cow onto this mom.
So it's basically like a wet nurse or kind of a nanny mommy, like a fake mommy kind of thing, because his actual mom is not producing any milk.
So she got in her trailer and she drove all the way up to Kentucky because you can't stop her.
And she got this cow and she has named her Flossie.
We already had a cow named Flossie.
That was actually the first cow that my my mom ever brought home when we were both living in Idaho.
Flossie, unfortunately, is now in my freezer.
So we don't have Flossie.
So now we have Flossie 2.0 because my mom loved the name so much.
So we brought Flossy 2.0 home.
She is the most incredible milk cow I've ever seen.
Like she, you can just milk her in the middle of a pasture.
She is so great.
And guys, within
like a day, P-Pants, poor little P-Pants with his name, he pees all the time and he peed all over Alex.
That's why his name is Pee Pants.
He was milking on her.
He is like literally following her around.
She's not completely sure about him yet.
So she kind of like kicks him off.
But we're going out a few times a day and just making sure that he is actually latching and getting what he needs.
And if we need to literally hold his head there or hold her legs back so she doesn't kick him, we'll be doing that.
But it's smooth sailing.
Hopefully.
he will actually be attached and then we will not have to be bottle feeding him for the next six months.
But that also means now that we are getting gallons and gallons and gallons of milk a day.
So before I jumped on this live stream this morning, my mom and I milked at 6.30 this morning and I went inside and I had breakfast with Alex and then I made butter and then I'm now fermenting the butter milk and then I made ice cream based because we have that ninja creamy.
So I use our duck eggs because they're super fatty and yummy and I make like a ice cream custard based.
So I did a crap ton of that and then I made yogurt.
And so the yogurt right now is culturing in the Instant Pot back at our house for the next eight hours.
So that is what I did this morning.
So that is the farm update.
Pee Pants is doing great.
He is still peeing all over the place.
I have no idea how a baby cow has that much pee in him.
My mom wants to change his name to Captain Underpants so that we still have some sort of, you know, theme there.
But she feels like Captain is a much more distinguished name than P-Pants.
And Alex is not having it to her.
Anyway, so that is how things are going here.
And I'm reading all your guys' super chats now.
Randomness of Angie, I think, Angel, loving the new set.
Angela, there you are.
For some reason, my thing was cut off.
New set looks awesome.
Love the books.
Thank you so much, Caleb.
Pacific Northwest Vibes.
Cooper Trooper Discord.
You guys should start one because I can't figure out how to use Discord.
I think you guys had one for comment section, maybe.
More cow stories from Zach Attack.
Well, thankfully, we have so many of them and they just keep reproducing.
They don't stop.
So I'm sure there will be more and more.
We have two
more cows that are pregnant.
They're heifers, so they will become cows, but they're they're pregnant and they'll be due shortly after me, probably in September or October.
So we'll see.
I can listen to your farm stories all day.
Good.
I'm glad because we have them for days and days on end.
All right, so now that you guys have gotten the updates, we can go into this story.
And I know that we were just talking about beef and meat, which obviously makes me think of Michelle Obama and Big Mike because, you know, who's got meat?
Just kidding.
Anyway, we need to talk about Michelle's podcast because it turns out the only thing that Michelle needed to actually get people to watch her podcast was her husband, Barack.
And I want you guys to think back to a clip that we talked about a few weeks ago of Michelle on the podcast, where she was just enraged.
She was lamenting about the fact that it was just so hard being married to somebody who was so successful and respected and somebody who just kept becoming more respected.
And it was just so difficult.
And she told a story about how she was sitting with Barack and people kept coming up to Barack and wanting to take photos with him and she was like oh it's just it's just so hard like living in his shadow which is just the most ridiculous thing to me like that's like final boss of feminism basically where I feel like most women in the world most men just like people in general like you want to be with somebody who is respected, who not only you admire, but your community admires, the community at large.
Like that is something that I feel like for most people, especially women, is very attractive.
Like you want to be married to a strong man who is a leader who people look up to.
And yet for Michelle, apparently it is just too much.
Like even though she is aware of the facts that she's literally married to one of the most famous men on earth, Barack Obama, it's just too much.
It's too much.
She can't handle it anymore.
And so just remember her saying that.
And then what is so ironically funny is that Barack comes on her podcast to finally do an interview with her and her brother.
And the interview gets more views than anything else she's done on her channel.
Like it is so perfect.
And I know that she was just like in the YouTube studio back end, like watching the numbers go up being like, this is like overperformed.
And she's like,
how dare he be so respected and successful when her podcast is getting like 10,000 views.
So sorry, Michelle.
Guess you needed your respected, successful man.
Anyway.
That is not the point of why I am bringing this up.
The thing that I actually want to talk about is a clip, probably the most viral moment of the interview that they did.
And that is where Barack Obama talks about the type of mentors that young men need.
Because he says it can't just be the father in the young man's life, they need a village.
But specifically, there was a specific type of man that he thinks other men need to be mentored by.
And that, of course, because it's 2025, is a gay man.
Just watch this clip.
Let's roll it.
One of the most valuable things I learned as a guy was
I had a gay professor
in college
at a time when openly gay folks still weren't out of life,
who became one of my favorite professors and was a great guy and would call me out when I started saying stuff that was ignorant.
You need that
to show empathy and kindness.
And by the way, you need that person in your friend group so that if you then have a boy who is who's who's who's gay or non-binary or what have you they have somebody that they can go okay I'm not alone in this
okay so I don't know if that is ridiculous to anyone else but like it's it's ridiculous on so many levels because here's the thing he almost made a good point like he was so close and then he missed it because it is true that I would say both young men and young women need people who are mentors outside of just their parents like I feel like I learned so much from my mom's friends from theater teachers from my English teacher who I still email with even like 10 years later.
Like we learn so much from other adults in our community.
That's one of the reasons why I think homeschooling is so incredible because it often forces young people to, you know, engage with their community and engage with people who are older than them.
Whereas when you're in like a normal brick and mortar school or public school, you're kind of like in the same like soup lumped in with everybody who's just your own age.
But as a homeschooler, you're meeting lots of people.
You're doing extracurriculars.
You're spending more time at church, whatever it is.
You're engaging with more adults and you are, you know, expanding your social skills, but also you're learning from these people who could become mentors of yours.
So obviously, yes, it is a good thing that young men have other men in their life outside of their dad who are inspiring them and molding them and challenging them.
And if that person happens to be gay, that's fine.
But the idea that you need to go seek out a gay man in order to teach a young man compassion and empathy.
Like, do you think that just normal straight men, do you think that your father can't teach you compassion and empathy?
Like that's incredibly sexist, in my opinion.
Like, oh no, you, you need a gay man to that.
Like,
why is it all about sex?
Like, why is it that who you sleep with determines how compassionate or empathetic you are as a man?
Like, that is genuinely just absurd.
The entire thing is absurd.
And he talks about his professor who taught him all of these things and was breaking through all of these barriers.
And it would have been so simple just to say, like, I think it is so important for men to to have, you know, other mentors.
I had great mentors, you know, teachers.
I had this one Occidental.
That's where he went to school before transferring to Columbia.
I had a great professor at Occidental who I feel like really challenged the way that I think and became a mentor and taught me a lot about compassion and empathy.
Like, why does it matter that he's gay?
Like, genuinely.
Like, I remember being a young person and it sort of becoming
taboo, like when you were telling a story.
And if you would say, oh, okay, well, somebody of like this certain race did this thing.
And it was kind of like, okay, well, you know, why would you say they're race when it doesn't really matter to the story?
Like, you should just like not see color because it's just humans.
Like, we have now gone so far in the other direction where we're not just seeing human beings for who they are and you know, the you know, the content of their character, but it's like, oh no, we have to attach a label, we have to say, oh, yes, they are a black person, that is what we're doing, oh, yes, this is a gay person, and therefore they teach us everything.
And it is so breaking ridiculous, and it's absurd.
Like, it's great to have gay friends, it's also great if you don't know it.
Like it's, it's so fine and it should not matter.
And he's just driving this point home being like, this is the only way that men will learn compassion and empathy.
I'm sorry.
Men can learn compassion and empathy.
from their father.
They can learn compassion and empathy from the scout leader in their like Boy Scouts troop.
They can learn compassion and empathy from their pastor.
They can learn, I mean, there are so many, they can learn compassion and empathy from their mothers.
It does not have to be a gay man.
And yet because they are so hell-bent on making everything about sexual identity and who you sleep with, this is just the logical conclusion that Barack has come to.
Anyway, I just had to rant about that as everybody was ranting about it on X because it is so unbelievably ridiculous.
Like I think back on my childhood, as you guys know, I was a theater kid and I was an actor for 10 years.
I had so many friends and mentors who were gay.
I mean, like being an actor, like I had acting teachers who were gay, I had singing teachers.
Like I look back, that is not the first thing that I think of when I think of them because I'm not ridiculous, because I'm like a normal human being.
And instead of thinking, oh, yes, I had that gay vocal instructor one time that was so nice, I think back to the fact that he was so instrumental in growing my confidence and making me feel like I could get up in front of a whole group of people and sing.
And like,
you know, my voice actually mattered more than just in the way that I was singing, but that I was somebody that like deserved to be heard.
Like, that's what I think of when I think of that vocal instructor.
Not the fact that it's like, oh, he had a husband.
I'm so glad.
I'm so glad that he was like, it's so ridiculous.
Anyway, so Barack Obama needs to just be normal and let it go and stop thinking about sex all the time.
Now, the other thing that I wanted to bring up in terms of this podcast episode is I'm sure that we have all,
we've talked about a lot, I talked about this a lot on tour.
We've all heard the rumors about Michelle and Barack and the state of their marriage.
And Michelle has said, you know, if anything is going wrong in our marriage, like I would tell you if we were going to get a divorce.
And then she proceeded over the last six months to basically be like, being married to Barack is hard.
I didn't like him for, you know, 10 years out of our marriage.
The most horrifying thing was that she said she was so glad she did not have a son because then she would have had to raise another Barack Obama and she did not want to do that.
And I told this story at my show at Zane's in Nashville just a couple of days ago.
And I was like, I remember starting to date Alex and I knew that I wanted to marry Alex literally within like 48 hours of meeting him.
I think he knew before we even went on our first date because he had a conversation with his mom and he was like, I think this is it.
Like we're not, if we go out on a date, like we're just, this is it for me.
Anyway, I knew very quickly.
And the moment that I knew, my like female brain logically turned to, oh my gosh, I want to have children with you.
I want to have like a bunch of tiny little mini brunette curly-haired Alexes running around.
Like I want to have a legion of little baby like mini Alex sons.
And that's we're having a boy.
I think I've said that like sort of, but I don't know if I've ever like actually actually said it on here, but we're having a boy.
I'm so excited.
And it's a dream come true because I love him so much.
And I want to have a mini version of him.
And I want to see him be a dad to a young boy.
Like that's, I feel like that's like a normal female thing if you love your husband, but I don't know if Michelle does right now, but she doesn't even like the fact that Obama is respected.
Anyway,
but she said that.
So she's saying all of these things about their marriage.
It does not seem like they're in the greatest place.
And then she was asked about it.
And she was like, guys, we're in our 60s.
Like,
I don't know.
We're just like doing things differently.
Anyway, he comes on the podcast, and everybody's talking about this clip with the gay professor.
What you really need to go back and look at is go to, we don't even have this pulled up on the show.
You just need to go look.
Go to the beginning of that podcast episode and watch the way that they greet each other.
They come in and it's like a side hug.
It's like a, oh, hi, good to see you.
And they do like a little like peck, like,
and then they proceed to go to the largest table I have ever seen and they sit on opposite ends of it.
And then Michelle's like, oh, hey, how you been?
What's new?
I have never once asked my husband, so how you been?
What's new?
Because I talk to him all the time, literally like two minutes before we were live.
His gym, the one that he's building is also in this building.
And I was like, hey, I can hear you like hanging up your like Tennessee Vols fan downstairs.
Like go ahead or go away.
I talk to him on a daily basis.
I see him on a daily basis.
I don't need to ask.
So how you been?
What's new?
And then they make a joke like, hey, you finally let me on the show that's that's cool we're doing great it's so incredibly awkward it is just beautiful beautiful television again What happens in the real world these days is so much funnier than anything happening on television.
But watch that introduction.
You will cringe.
It will make you wonder when the last time was that they had a family dinner with good ranchers, the last time that they sat around the dinner table and enjoyed a nice good rancher's ribeye.
Now, guys, by the time this show ends, another family farm will shut down in America because the meat in your grocery store is not coming from them anymore.
In fact, 85% of that meat is actually coming from overseas where safety standards are different.
Quality is incredibly questionable.
And truth in labeling, especially in America, is optional.
That is why I buy all of my meat from Good Ranchers.
Good Ranchers doesn't just sell meat.

Woo!
We did it.
Doing the ad reads live was the thing that I was most stressed about with going back to live streams because I knew that I was going to have to like do a transition.
I was like, I can't let them down.
I have to do it.
Anyway, the next thing that we must discuss is Harry and Megan.
There are two people that I love talking about more than anything.
Michelle Obama has really gotten up there.
Megan Markle is probably number one, I think, because there is just never an absence of an absence.
Yes, an absence of content.
She just never stops talking.
She these days has not stopped going on podcasts.
She is releasing all of her different as ever products, and it is such great fodder, and it is such entertainment for me and entertainment for you guys.
But before we dive into that, I will see if we have any new chat things.
Smooth as butter ad transitions.
Thank you so much, Zach.
I do it for you.
I do it for all of you.
Okay,
let's dive into this.
So as we all know, Harry and Megan, or you might not know, Harry and Megan, when they were doing their big escape from the royal family, they took their freedom flight.
Whose plane did they go on?
Didn't they go on Tyler Perry's private jet?
Which is, that's unfortunate these days.
That is an unfortunate pairing for them.
I think he's literally like in their documentary.
It was Oprah, Beyonce, and like Tyler Perry were like helping them escape from the oppression of the royal family.
Anyway, on their freedom flight to America, they signed a bunch of deals.
Harry signed the deal for his memoir Spare.
They did that huge deal with Spotify for Megan's first podcast that did not really go very well.
What was that called?
Archetypes, I believe.
And then they also did a $100 million deal with Netflix.
They created Archwell Productions.
And so Netflix did a deal with Archwell.
They did a documentary about their departure, about the freedom flight.
And then, of course, back in January, Megan released the first season of With Love Megan, where I think she was trying to be like the new Martha Stewart, the new goop uh gwynth paltrow whatever it is and as we all know it did not go very well like basically for the entire series people were just making fun of the episodes and being like megan what are you doing also in episode one of that series in season one She teaches everybody how to make bath salts for her guests.
Somebody tried one of those bath salts.
I don't even know if I've talked about this on the show.
Like a fan of hers tried her bath salts recipe, ended up getting chemical burns, and is now suing Megan Markle for damages, being like, I did your recipe that you put on Netflix and I have chemical burns all over my legs.
Anyway, needless to say, it didn't go very well.
People were shocked when Netflix announced that it was getting a season two.
We'll talk about that later.
But...
While it was coming out and everybody was talking about it, Netflix, for like the entire first two weeks, I would say, of it being, you know, out on Netflix, they had it listed in like the top 10.
Like, this is the number one thing in America right now, most watched.
Everybody needs to see it.
It's this whole thing.
And so, I was thinking, like, okay, well, it's getting a lot of flack on social media, but maybe this is overhyped.
Maybe it's just my algorithm because I like joke about Megan all the time.
Maybe I'm living in an echo chamber.
Like, I remember distinctively thinking that because I was like, well, obviously, it's sort of doing well.
Did not even cross my mind.
This is how naive I was in the moment.
I'm going to blame the first trimester of pregnancy.
Did not even think about the fact that Netflix can obviously like decide who gets the number one slot and basically like force you to watch what they want you to watch because they're like, well, we've invested a lot of money into Megan.
We need you to watch this.
Because, guys, the rankings of the shows, I think, in the last, um,
yes, in we're now in like Q2, or we've just ended Q2 of 2025.
And so they did the rankings of the number one, like the best shows on Netflix for 2025 thus far.
And as I mentioned earlier, well, with Love from Megan had an unprecedented ranking, guys, with Love from Megan I'm gonna make sure I get this right ranked at number 383 in 2025 thus far even though they were convincing us that it was number one in the world number one everyone is watching it top 10 all of that stuff literally got 383.
To put that in comparison, reruns of her show Suits, reruns of Gossip Girl were more popular than her show, which seems to be a common thing these days in Hollywood.
Like if you look at shows that are running on television, if you look at shows that are available on streaming, every single year, it is the reruns of shows.
It's not like the new show that just came out or the new season of whatever.
It is always the people are re-watching How I Met Your Mother, Friends, whatever it may be, you know, Gossip Girl, Gilmore Girls, whatever it is, everybody goes back to a previous era of television.
We go back to our comfort shows, we go back to shows where there were, you know, more than six episodes in a season and there are like eight eight seasons to watch.
Like, that is what we are all watching on streaming.
And if you have cable, what you're watching, these new shows are not going to get any attention.
But for most of the really big popular shows, they'll end up in like the 30,
maybe, you know, maybe 50s, but they're, you know, above, you know, 100, I would say.
Like, you might have like friends in the office and then like a few down.
You'll have a really popular show that just came out.
383 is insight.
It is ridiculous.
And so the Daily Mail reported this and they said that the execs are obviously worried about the
poor performance of With Love for Megan.
But unfortunately, they are stuck with them because they have this $100 million deal.
Now, in addition to Megan's series, one thing that I totally missed, which is just kind of laughable, is the fact that Harry also put a documentary out this year.
He did a documentary called Polo on Netflix.
And guys, his documentary that I didn't even know happened ranked at 3,436.
I mean, talk about unprecedented.
I think that is the most unprecedented of the unprecedented.
It only had, okay, what do we have here?
It only had 500,000 views.
That's like...
One episode of our show.
There's more of you guys watching this often than there were people watching Harry's documentary, Polo.
I don't know what it's about.
I literally did not hear about it.
But again, Netflix is stuck with them.
However, last night an article came out.
It was reported from a Netflix insider that Netflix, very quietly, has decided not to renew their deal once it expires.
So they're not like breaking their contract.
They're not saying get out, whatever.
They're just kind of, you know, deciding, ooh, maybe this $100 million deal that we made, maybe this was not the best idea.
They're going to release, as of right now.
They're going to release season two of With Love for Megan, but that is not because they were like, this was such a raging success.
Let's do another season.
It's because when they filmed, they did season one and season two together.
So they already have season two, so they'll lose even more money if they don't release it.
So they're going to release season two, but according to this insider, the deal is still active.
However, Netflix is discreetly planning to part waves.
Waves, not waves.
So the Sussexes, whatever their last names are, Her Royal Highness, Her Royal Highness Megan.
I know that that's how she prefers to be
spoken to and referenced in private.
So I'll give her that dignity.
Her Royal Highness, Megan Markle.
They might be fine for now.
However, somebody else is not.
Stephen Colbert of CBS is late night show is not.
So CBS announced just a couple of days ago that they have canceled Stephen Colbert's late night show, citing a financial decision against a challenging backdrop in late night.
That is the exact quote.
And guys, there is so much speculation about this.
And it's really interesting because this kind of like weaves in politics and media and what's going on in the world.
And it kind of ties into Trump in a lot of ways because last week, Paramount settled with President Trump, paying him $16 million for editing a 60-minute interview with Kamala to make her look good.
He sued them for $16 million.
They settled.
He's very excited about it.
He was posting about it on Truth Social.
And immediately the next day, Stephen Colbert went on his late night show and called that settlement and the lawsuit a quote-unquote big fat bribe.
And I was really confused by this and everybody was tweeting up a store by it and i was like what is this like how are they bribing him like what is going on but what this is referring to in case you guys didn't see this you were confused like me this is referring to paramount cbs paramount owns cbs um and they're pending multi-billion dollar merger with a company called skydance media and they need the trump administration to approve that merger so it's not like trump going in and going yes you are allowed to merge whatever but it is you know agencies like the fcc the ftc the people who run the you know, antitrust laws that make sure that there's not going to be a monopoly in media, whatever it is.
Those agencies have to approve that sale and that merger.
And so Colbert is saying, oh, the only reason you groveled to this man, the only reason that you settled with him this ridiculous thing, because he was against the lawsuit, he thought it was totally fine for 60 minutes to edit this interview that was supposed to be unedited and make her look good and make Trump look bad.
He said, the only reason you would do that is because you want to bribe Trump to get you to do this big sale.
And so then the next day, so we have like this whole chain of events, Colbert said that on his show.
The next day, Colbert was told that his show was getting canceled.
So of course, everybody on the left, all of his fans, the left-wing politicians, they're all losing their minds over this
and blaming Trump for the fate of Stephen Colbert.
Miss Pocahontas, aka Elizabeth Warren, immediately started tweeting and she was like, Trump is behind this.
This is so disgraceful.
This is awful.
Bernie Sanders did the same thing.
They were like, this this is like law affair behind the scenes and Stephen Colbert is being punished.
It's like, basically they were trying to paint the picture that they were bribed.
Stephen Colbert made a joke about it and then Trump got his feelings hurt and was like, no, you have to fire him and get rid of his show or else I won't approve the merger.
Whatever it is.
It's like.
Guys, Stephen Colbert is not that big of a deal.
Like, I don't think Trump cares.
He might tweet about him on Truth Social, but I really don't think that is like the thorn in his side is not that personal.
Like it's really not that big of a deal.
And also,
if it was personal about Stephen Colbert, wouldn't he just be fired and the show would continue?
But that's not what's happening.
They are canceling the show.
It's not like they're going to get rid of Colbert and bring in a new late night host, which often happens.
It's like, hey, this person's contract is over.
Bringing in a new person.
You had Letterman.
You then you switch in other people, whatever it is.
That's not happening.
They're canceling, be it's the late late show.
I'm pretty sure.
I think it might be the one that comes on the latest.
It's like 11:50 p.m.
or whatever it is.
They're canceling the show in its entirety.
So it's not about Colbert.
It is about the late-night show.
And so maybe you could make the argument that it is about the merger because they're trying to trim the fat before they sell since they cited, you know, financial reasons.
Maybe they're saying, like, this just isn't profitable.
We want to get rid of this.
You know, Skydance, whatever the company is called, doesn't want this.
We need to get rid of it.
But I don't, I genuinely do not believe that Colbert making a
mild joke, like an expected joke.
Like I listened to that and I was like, okay, yeah, like everybody on late night is probably going to say something like that.
Like mild in the sense of like what they normally do on late night.
Like I don't think his joke carries that much weight.
I don't think he as an individual has that much power.
I literally think that his show was simply not profitable.
But guys, this is where it gets even more interesting because then I was like, well, we should see where he ranks on the late night shows, like who is actually watching his show.
And And so I went in to ChatGPT.
It's the only thing I use AI for is like answering questions quickly.
I use AI to adapt recipes.
That is so great.
Oh my God, it is so easy.
And then to look up things like this.
And so I was like, so please rank all the current late night shows for me based on viewers.
Guys, behind Gutfeld,
Colbert is the highest viewed.
Like you have Gutfeld with 3.29 million viewers, the highest across all late night programs.
Yay, Fox, good for you.
And then number two is the late show with Stephen Colbert at the, okay, it's the 1135 p.m.
slot with 2.42 million viewers.
And also another important point, Colbert's show was the only late night show to grow quarter over quarter,
according to this research, what they like populated out for me.
So it's not like this is the worst show on late night.
It's not like, oh, he's, you know, ranked number 15 out of the 15 late night shows.
This is really embarrassing.
Outside of Gutfeld, he's number one, and they still got rid of him.
Like, based on that alone, like, that completely made me do like a 180 of like, oh my god, okay, so this is a totally different thing.
This is less about, you know, his show or him making a joke.
This is about how the legacy media landscape is completely changing.
The fact that a lot of these places, like, their numbers are dwindling, they might be getting millions of views a night, but you know, 10 years ago, they might have been getting 10 million viewers a night when everybody would like sit around and watch these pundits.
Even years before that, when entire families would gather around the television and watch these, you know, prolific and famous and entertaining late night house, like people's palettes are just changing, especially with my generation, you guys, Gen Z, who like we basically consume all of our news and entertainment on social media or on streaming.
Like that is where we're going to for content.
And so again, this is not about Trump, in my opinion.
It's not about Colbert making a joke.
I literally just think it's that media is going in a new direction.
And these legacy media companies, everybody that you see on cable, they are frantically having to figure out how to adapt.
And that is a good thing.
That's something that I've been talking about since we launched this new show, actually.
Because I was saying, so many people are going independent.
They want to, you know, own their own careers.
They want to make their own shows.
They don't want to be beholden to a company.
And that's like on the creator side of things and the entertainer side of things.
But it's also for you guys and for viewers, consumers like me.
Like when I watch content, I love watching, you know, non-legacy media things.
I love seeing independent voices.
I think that's really exciting.
And while legacy media will always, I think, be there and carry weight and be significant.
What people are going to and gravitating towards is changing.
And so therefore, they are going to have to adapt and figure out how to catch up with the, you know, changing times and what we as young people want to watch.
And this is just indicative of that.
And it makes me wonder, you know, what is going to happen to the rest of television?
You know, what is going to happen to the rest of cable?
Like we don't really, like people don't subscribe to cable anymore, but then now you're, you know, you have bundles of streaming services.
So you're basically like subscribing to cable anyway.
So I'm thinking about all of that.
And of course, I am also thinking about what the couple at the Cold Play concert is up to right now.
That is the other thing that we need to talk about today.
Before we dive into that, though, I'll see if you guys had anything to say about Colbert.
Let's see.
I don't think you guys have anything specifically about Colbert, so I'll just answer these more personal questions at the end here.
But yeah, I think that you guys have all seen the Cold Play video by now.
If you have not, let's run the clip, take a look at this insanity that happened at a Cold Play concert just a couple of days ago.
Okay.
Oh, what?
Okay, so if you have no idea what is going on there, if you have not watched this video now a thousand and one times like myself, basically there is like this kiss cam, like audience cam that people are doing at Cold Play concerts.
So they were going around and they focus in on this couple that is like canodling and swaying.
The moment they realize the camera is on them, it is like, oh my God, oh my God.
And the guy like ducks, the woman turns around.
And I mean, guys, it took the internet.
It's a beautiful thing.
It took the internet maybe an hour to figure out who these people are and to discover that this is the CEO, the man is the CEO of a huge data company.
I believe that they like help power AI for companies.
And that the woman that he was canoodling with was his chief people officer.
So that is like the person that is over HR.
I don't even know what a chief people person officer does other than that, but she is like the head of the heads of HR basically.
And they are both married to other people.
And it literally took an hour for them to uncover all of this and so now there are memes everywhere my favorite thing that has come out of this entire scandal is the fact that at sporting events over the last couple of weeks and other concerts people have been doing the cold play cam basically and so they'll like turn the camera on a couple like they normally do at baseball games and that sort of thing but instead of people being like oh my gosh yes look at us we're here like you know whenever you go to a predators game in nashville oh let's kiss let's do whatever everybody's acting this out like they're all like standing in the prom pose, pretending to be this couple, just hoping that they get on camera and everybody's ducking.
It is freaking hysterical.
It is amazing.
I love the internet sometimes.
And there's also been this whole debate online about whether it was right for these individuals to be, you know, exposed and to have, you know, their names released and all of that.
And it's like,
what did you think was going to happen?
Like you went in public.
It's not like you were inside your home having this affair and somebody was like outside from social media being like, what are they doing in here?
Like you were in public, publicly like kissing and hugging.
You were at a public place where maybe somebody you were going to be on camera.
Like that is just a risk.
You might think that it's private because it's a dark concert, but often there are these cameras.
There are social media everywhere.
If you are somebody that is on X, on TikTok specifically, you should know like whether it's a good thing or not.
Everybody's filming.
all the time.
Like everybody.
That's something that I think about all the time too.
Like whenever I go to Costco in my pajamas and I'm like, oh my god, somebody could see me here.
And I'm literally look like a troll.
Um, when I basically announced my pregnancy right when I was starting to have a bump, because I really like popped out later.
Um, but that was one of the things I was thinking of: if I don't announce this, and I already like am very much showing, like, I'm gonna end up on TikTok or on Reddit somewhere with people because everybody films.
Like, that is just the nature of 2025.
So, you can't blame social media or condemn people on social media for seeing this clip and being like, huh, that was funny.
I wonder why they had that response.
And then having the sleuths online do their digging as they do and like uncover it.
Like you, in 2025, like unfortunately, if you are in public, you might like a right to privacy, but you can't really when everybody has a phone or like even like the Google like AI glasses, the metaglasses, like everybody is watching all the time.
And so that debate has now spiraled into what the CEO of this company, like the statement that he put out.
So the the company, I think it's called Astronomer.
They have now announced that both of these individuals have been put on leave.
There are also a lot of people on social media who have been saying, like,
you know, this is all fun and games.
Obviously, it's not great that they're having an affair.
They should deal with that.
You know, the personal ramifications are totally fine, but this should not impact their work at all.
But this is the CEO of a huge company having an affair with his chief people officer, like the head of HR.
That seems like kind of a problem.
And also when you have then, through your affair and your social media media virality thrusted your entire company into the spotlight in a not great way and completely distracted all consumers and people from the work that you actually do
that is going to impact your work like obviously the chairman the board of that company is gonna be like yeah you need to like if not fire you like take a leave of absence like go away let this all die down like that is not controversial to me whatsoever that makes complete sense but then the last thing i'll say is that the man the ceo put out a statement and he was like I'm so embarrassed.
It's like the normal like guy caught in an affair thing.
I'm so ashamed.
My wife deserves better.
This is really embarrassing.
And then, as if he's in a comedy, he goes, but it was just really unfortunate that my transgression was put on social media.
And I don't think it's right for people to do like whatever.
Dude, you were having an affair in public.
Like, again, what did you expect was going to happen?
Like, I literally feel like we are living in a sitcom.
It's like, well, I wish you wouldn't put my affair on social media, even though it was really funny.
You don't have that right anymore, unfortunately.
It's not your video.
It would be nice.
But again, this is just the reality of the world we live in.
It is 2025.
And dude, if you are cheating on your wife, If you are breaking up your family, the woman, if you are cheating on your husband and breaking up your family, I really don't have any remorse right now.
I don't feel bad about making fun of it.
I don't feel bad about liking every single like Cold Play Cam video that I see because you screwed up.
You are breaking the most important commitment that you have in your entire life for what?
For a fun night at cold play
and you're chief people officer?
Like that's embarrassing.
Like the entire thing is embarrassing.
You deserve to be ridiculed.
This is ridiculous.
This should like, this happening should terrify people.
It should terrify you if you're thinking of cheating.
If you are having an affair, get your act together.
Stop.
Like you are, you know, dick behavior.
Sorry.
But you should be terrified that this could be your future and that should stop you in your tracks and you should go work on your marriage and deal with it in the way that you should because let this just like be a lesson for everyone.
Anyway, that is my rant about the cold play
people.
Um, I'll read some super chats now.
Um, because I know that there were some more personal ones that were not topical, but that you wanted to see.
This one was relatively topical.
People aren't watching late night TV anymore.
They're doom scrolling before bed.
Yeah, exactly.
Like, put Stephen Colbert on X writing a bunch of threads and being in the replies.
I want to see him in the comment section.
Like, that's what I care about.
That's where you'll get attention, Stephen Colbert.
Per John Nolte Breitbart.
Reruns of Gunsmoke on Paramount draw more viewers of most Disney Plus content.
Old Westerns outperform modern shows.
Like, who is surprised at all?
The cold play meme will live in infamy.
Yeah.
I mean, that's, we might have like peaked in terms of 2025 internet content, but I feel like I always say that every year.
I'm like, we've done it.
It's like February 1st and we've had the greatest moment.
And then come like this time of of year, I've forgotten what that viral moment was in February.
Maybe that's something we should do at the end of the year is we can do a rerun of the best moments because I know that I have no attention span because I'm 23 years old and live on social media.
And you guys might feel the same way so we can go do a recap.
Let's see.
God, thank you so much for your comment.
I really appreciate it.
Morgan said, I loved your sass speech.
Thank you guys.
I really appreciate it.
I had a lot of fun speaking at those events.
That was another thing we did.
We did the tour where I was at comedy clubs, and then I did a bunch of speeches with TPUSA, which was my first time ever being able to do that.
And so that was super fun.
We started with Anfest.
That was technically in 2024, but we did the Young Women's Conference, their chapter leadership summit, and then SAS.
And it was great being able to meet so many of you guys.
I think, as I said in the chapter leadership,
yeah, the chapter leadership speech, I think it is so incredible and it's so inspiring to me to see how many of you guys, especially you young people and the students out there, who you're willing to like come to these events and congregate and build community.
And I know that for a lot of people, and it definitely was for me, it is like uncomfortable to put yourself out there.
And it is uncomfortable to be like, I want to build community and make new friends and find people that, you know, share my values.
It's hard to show up.
It's hard to put yourself out there.
But I know that you guys know the importance of that, especially in this digital age that we're living in, the growth of AI relationships and friends and all of that.
And so for any of you guys who have done anything like that, if you showed up to any of those conferences, even if you just like showed up to a running club or whatever it is, or decided to go to a Bible study group where you don't know anybody, I just want to say like, that's amazing.
And that's kind of what the entirety of that speech was about, is about like the importance of doing that and pushing yourself out of your comfort zone because the fruits on the other side of that discomfort and the awkwardness of being like the person that doesn't know anybody is just so great.
And that's so hard for our generation.
I know that it's like still something that I struggle with.
So just know you guys are doing great.
And it was so fun seeing you guys at all of those conferences.
Will these live streams happen often in the future?
Yes, I think so.
Has it gone well?
Okay, I'm getting thumbs up.
I think it went very well.
That was the main thing is like if the tech was just impossible,
because we're a skeleton operation now.
Like this is, we're figuring all, we're bootlegging a lot of this.
It's professional, but we're bootlegging it.
So it was going to be like, is this going to give me and my team a brain aneurysm?
And that would determine whether we would do more of it.
But I I had a ton of fun with it.
And if you guys enjoyed it, we can definitely do more of this.
I'll read the comments afterwards.
We can do a poll if you like the pre-recorded episodes or if you like these better.
Let's see.
Latin Alexander said, congrats on your pregnancy.
That is a huge step for both you and your husband, but that baby is going to be wonderful.
Also, have you and your husband been thinking about how the baby room will look?
Yes.
Yeah.
It is basically finished.
But I know also that the way we intend to do things, like I doubt that he'll be in the nursery very often because I want him to sleep.
like he'll be sleeping near us with us.
I might go in there to like change a diaper, but also we're going to have a, you know, a changing table in our room.
But I feel like it's like the quintessential thing that you do and you make it cute.
But we did paint it and create it.
So that we could use it in the future.
So if we have a daughter, we probably wouldn't have to like repaint the walls.
It's really cute.
We did like sky blue kind of thing and it's acid wash paint.
So it kind of looks like the sky.
And then we got a really cute cloud lamp.
i think it's from pottery bar and kids but it like literally looks like it's a light picture that looks like a cloud and it is so precious so it looks like a sky and the rocking chair that i am waiting to be delivered it should be delivered this week is a cute yellow so it's like sunshine and fun and i have my crib that i slept in gosh for years i mean i was sleeping in that until i was like four not in like the crib but you know it becomes like a toddler bed and that sort of thing And so my mom has saved that all of these years and it is super high quality.
It's like wrought iron.
They don't make things like that anymore.
I feel like every crib I looked at was so cheap.
And so we have that and so a boy or girl can be in there.
So it'll be like it's, I'm glad that we have it and it'll just be like the baby room forever.
But yes, it's very cute and we had fun putting it together.
It was a long process because that room that we converted was Alex's old office that sort of just became the junk room because he prefers to work just at the kitchen table so that we can hang out together.
And so we had to clear out.
It was like, it was just the room where all of our old boxes were.
Something came in that we didn't know what to deal with.
We just threw it in there.
Our box of like cords like every family has like random cords and plugs and things that you don't know what they go to that was all on there so we had to get rid of that it was a whole process um but yes that will be good uh caleb's carnivore request said in the future will you do a show in boise maybe i would love to i also think that'd be fun um
I'll have to bring my mom back for that so she can go see her friends in Boise.
But yeah, I would love to do that for sure.
We are going to be announcing more tour stops soon.
Hopefully we're putting that together.
I really had so much fun.
I'll wrap it up with this actually.
I had so much fun, you know, meeting you guys.
The meet and greets were so much fun.
You guys had like the best stories to share.
It was great to put like faces to numbers is the thing that I always say.
That's always so special to me because you like log on and you're like, oh, I have this many people watching and I'm commenting and that's cool.
But it's really special to like actually be able to meet people and hug you and take pictures and chat.
So it was really, really special.
And I want to keep doing that.
And also, like, I am a theater kid through and through.
I love being on stage.
I I love performing in that capacity.
And it was just a really fun way to bring the show to you in a totally different format and way.
So, oh my gosh, I just keep hitting the mic.
Sorry if that like destroyed your ears.
So I'm excited to keep doing more of that.
And once we get through having this baby and like settling, we'll be giving some announcements there.
But I'm super excited to continue doing that.
All right, guys.
