You’re listening to the Every day Roundup right here as a part of the Actuality Steve Podcast. I’m your host, Actuality Steve. Thanks for tuning in on this Christmas day. In the event you rejoice, Merry Christmas to all people. In the event you don’t, Comfortable Holidays to everybody else on the market. Not a ton of stuff to go over right this moment. So we now have one story after which I’m going to learn a few reader emails that I received with some questions in it.
We’ll go over that. We’ll get to all that momentarily. So, one replace within the Blake Vigorous Justin Baldoni case. Yesterday, I learn you what Brandon Skliener, who performed Atlas Corrigan within the film, supported Blake by posting on his Instagram story a screenshot Of the 80 web page criticism that Blake filed had a hyperlink to it that stated for the love of God learn this Nicely one other co star of Blake’s has spoken out in protection of her and that’s Jenny Slate I discussed Jenny’s identify yesterday as a result of I stated hey The opposite two greatest names within the film are Jenny Slate and Hasan Minhaj.
And Jenny Slate performed Ryle, Justin Baldoni’s sister, within the film. Jenny Slate stated, as she launched an announcement, saying, As Blake Vigorous’s castmate and buddy, I voiced my help as she takes motion in opposition to these reported to have deliberate and carried out an assault on her fame. Blake is a frontrunner, loyal buddy, and a trusted supply of emotional help for me.
And so many who know and love her. What has been revealed concerning the assault on Blake is very darkish, disturbing, and wholly threatening. I commend my buddy. I love her bravery and I stand by her aspect. So it’s one other feather within the cap for Blake that no person from the forged or crew or manufacturing has come to Justin’s protection.
Not excellent for him. Now, his publicist, Jennifer Abel, posted on Fb yesterday to defend their actions. And so they principally stated, Hey, we didn’t need to do something. Her actions in previous interviews communicate for themselves. Which, once more, I get what they’re attempting to do right here. They’re his PR staff. And I believe the entire PR half about that is simply going to be loads of backwards and forwards as a result of Justin’s staff goes to say, Hey, her PR staff is attempting to make Justin look unhealthy.
And Blake’s staff is clearly saying no, he had a complete PR smear marketing campaign. That’s why he employed these folks, however they really have proof. Justin’s aspect doesn’t have proof and so they haven’t defended their textual content messages and emails simply but. So I believe there can be folks on either side on the PR factor. And perhaps you possibly can even make a case like, effectively, Blake’s attempting to damage Justin.
Okay. However Justin’s habits on set is what’s at play right here. She’s not attempting to damage something. All she’s doing is speaking about what she went via on set. So I suppose it comes right down to this. If you wish to say the PR stuff is simply too onerous to tell apart who’s telling the reality, that’s fantastic. You may virtually eradicate that from this entire criticism.
Learn the criticism and simply examine his habits on set. Don’t even fear about, effectively, who planted this? And was there a smear marketing campaign? Personally, I believe there was, however even if you happen to take that out of the equation, this man has to reply to her accusations of how he acted on set. And also you’ve already received co stars now coming ahead, defending Blake, which means they had been conscious of it too.
In the event that they had been on Justin’s aspect, they might communicate out in opposition to Blake, or they might at the very least say nothing. They’re particularly coming to Blake’s aspect saying now they haven’t talked about specifics. They haven’t talked concerning the issues that she stated in her criticism. And so they haven’t stated, Oh yeah, I noticed that.
I witnessed it. However that is lengthy from over. We all know this. That is going to go on for some time now. Extra stuff goes to get out. There’s going to be tales about this most likely every day if not weekly for the following few months. As a result of that’s all anyone goes to be digging. Particularly via the tip of the yr.
Like, there’s a brand new story on Us Weekly. Hell, there’s two to 3 new tales on Us Weekly and Folks. com and EW. com each single day about this. You’re not going to have the ability to get sufficient of this story. And it’s solely going to get extra salacious. Clearly, we’ve heard Blake communicate out, not simply by her criticism, however she did launch an announcement.
The subsequent particular person that everybody’s going to need to hear from is Justin Baldoni. And he’s going to need to reply to what about these accusations? He’s going to need to reply to why did you agree to those parameters that she had set as much as return to filming? In the event you didn’t consider you probably did something incorrect, you realize, you realize, look, this might go so some ways, both Justin Baldoni goes to come clean with his habits or he’s going full scorched earth.
And it’s simply going to assault Blake, which I don’t assume will play effectively for him. Positive. In a small area of interest viewers who’re girls hating girls, and so they simply don’t need to like Blake Vigorous. I’m certain that it’s going to enchantment to them, however I believe if I’m him, I don’t know the way legally he handles it when it comes to, does he admit he did all these things, however.
I believe he wants to come back out and really say one thing in some unspecified time in the future, however perhaps he can’t legally. I don’t, I don’t know since there’s a criticism in opposition to, you realize, he’s being sued for sexual harassment. Possibly he’s not going to do a sit down interview or pen some form of op ed, however that’s what folks need to hear from is Justin Baldoni as a result of Blake’s getting all of the help proper now.
And when no person from the set is supporting you now and talking out on Justin’s behalf, To not point out what was happening again in August. And we had been all like, that is so bizarre. He’s not showing with anyone from the film throughout a premiere week and pink carpet stuff. And the primary gamers within the film have all unfollowed him on social media.
It’s like one thing is up and now we now have our reply to what’s up. That’s actually the one story to go over within the leisure information on this Christmas day. I don’t plan on making this a 25 minute podcast, however there’s two emails I need to get to first one stated, Hey, Steve, did you see the Joe Schmoe present is making a comeback this time and as a actuality competitors present, everybody in it is aware of it’s a prank, besides one particular person.
They make him do some ridiculous stuff. Cat Deely from, so that you assume he can dance because the host it’s on TBS and it begins January twenty first. You already know, Final yr once I had Ingrid Wiese on, who’s the, who was on the primary, or excuse me, season two of the Joe Schmoe present, the one the place it was simply loaded with sexual innuendos and so they made it a bachelor kind present.
Once I had Ingrid on was proper across the time that final yr, I need to say final March or April, they had been working commercials on TBS for the Joe Schmoe present, however it stated coming quickly. After which it simply form of disappeared. I hadn’t heard something about it in like a yr. Nicely, sure, we now have our reply now.
It’s going to air on TBS on January twenty first. I completely 100% can be watching it. I can’t let you know sufficient how nice this present was, particularly again when it got here out on the creation of actuality TV. In the event you actually need to have a great snicker, simply go on YouTube and Google Joe Schmoe present season two. Season one was good.
That like set the, laid the muse for these prank kind reveals, however season two, if you happen to’re a bachelor. Or bachelorette fan. You’ll like season two of the Joe Schmo present higher simply because it’s a takeoff of bachelor and bachelorette the place they idiot two folks to assume they’re on a relationship present. Everybody else is in on it.
And simply the sexual innuendos had been fairly humorous. So go, go verify that out as I’ve the hiccups. Nice.
