[0:00] here are some of the things that we are going to see. We played a couple of these earlier this
[0:03] week, but we can't get out of a Blake Lively segment without watching her diminish Kirstie
[0:08] Fla of the Netherlands as she tried to interview Blake in a 2016 interview for Blake's film
[0:15] Cafe Society. Blake's sitting next to Parker Posey, who somehow we forgot to notice is almost
[0:21] as bad. She's equally almost awful in this clip, but here they are. First of all, congrats on your
[0:28] little bump. Congrats on your little bump. What about my bump? You've got two nice ones.
[0:37] These, they are kind of bumps, aren't they? No, not bumps. The lovely lady lumps. Check it out.
[0:44] Thank you. Thank you. You like the movie? Are you a Woody Allen fan? I love most of his movies,
[0:49] and this one was so, like, visually amazing. Yeah, it's gorgeous. Did you guys love wearing
[0:55] those kind of clothes that you... Yeah. Yeah. And, you know, working in digital... Everyone wants to talk
[0:59] about the clothes, but I wonder if they would ask the men about the clothes. I would. I love Jesse's
[1:05] suits and how he... That's what I'm saying. His wardrobe was beautiful. Oh, I know. Everybody.
[1:09] Cory's wardrobe was, of course, those high-waisted pants. He's so great. I would wish men more high-waisted
[1:15] pants like that still. I know. Me too. Or their father with his tank top in it. Oh, it's so good. Yeah.
[1:22] It's not just the women that have the clothes. I feel like the women get the conversation,
[1:26] but it's like... Yeah. Oh, my God, Zach. It's stomach turning. Bully, mean girl,
[1:34] tone deaf. Bully, mean girl, tone deaf. That is the energy you're getting from that clip
[1:39] that is really what set the internet on fire. I always said that the... I agreed that the little
[1:48] bump video, this video that we just watched, I do agree that that was kind of, you know,
[1:54] the ember that burned down her reputation for sure. But it's because it went viral. And as
[2:00] TikTok does, when something goes viral, then everybody jumps in on the fight. And then
[2:05] everybody shares their battle stories. They share their video clips with Blake, which is what
[2:10] happened. And it just... I think Blake and her team are so out of touch with how digital media works.
[2:17] And now they want to call it digital violence, digital warfare, the terms that she's using to
[2:22] describe this, which is wild. I mean, she commits digital violence against me every time I have
[2:28] to see her face. And the thing about that clip was interesting. It was shot in 2016, but she said
[2:36] it aired. Her employer did air it in the Netherlands, but it got re-released. That clip got re-released on
[2:43] the internet right around the time of It Ends With Us. So it was... And that's when it went viral. Yeah.
[2:49] Unfortunately for Blake. Because people were speculating what was going on between Justin Blake,
[2:54] because she put him in the basement. She wouldn't have him near the cast, which she knew would cause
[2:58] speculation. And it did because everybody like myself, we were wondering, was there any drama on
[3:04] set? And then the most common narrative, because most of us didn't really know who Justin
[3:08] Belladoni was, unless you were the biggest Jane the Virgin fan. But most of us were then thinking,
[3:12] was Blake being difficult on set? Is Blake behind this? What was the dynamic? Did they not get along
[3:19] if they're the two love interests in this movie and they're not doing any press together? So that
[3:23] fueled that speculation. And then that's when, you know, Shirstie Flaw came out and she's like,
[3:28] here's the video. Like, she is a bully. She's always been this way. Here's an old interview clip
[3:33] that I have. When, you know, I, I forgot what movie they were doing promo for, but she's like,
[3:38] when she was promoting this film. Cafe Society. Yes. And so when she's promoting this film,
[3:43] I'm sure she's like, here's the whole clip. You know, here's, you can see it. You can see her,
[3:48] you know, basically taking a shot at my body, you know, body shaming me, which, and I believe
[3:53] Shirstie's opened up about it. I think she had some fertility issues, which also just cuts even deeper.
[3:58] So it just, it's, it's insane that she's taken it this far from that. If you saw nothing else
[4:07] about Blake live, he saw no other eclipse. You would know who she was from that clip. You would
[4:12] know that's not, I'm having a bad day. That's, you are a bad person. She had come out publicly
[4:17] with, with her pregnancy prior to this. She had just come out with it and she was showing. And as
[4:23] the interviewer, obviously you'd love to get her to comment on it on camera. She had just publicly
[4:28] commented on it. So it wasn't off limits. And you'd love for her to be like, Oh yeah,
[4:32] we're so excited. You know, this is our fourth baby and we can't wait. That's it. That's all
[4:36] she had to say. It's a nice way to acknowledge this human life that you were about to bring into
[4:40] the world. Don't be such an asshole, Blake. And then to turn around, I like, Oh, you have a nice
[4:47] baby bump. What? And you, you never comment on that. Every man knows you don't say that to a woman.
[4:53] It wasn't real. The girl didn't actually have any sort of a bump. She was just saying it to like
[4:56] push her, push her down. But you never say that because you never know what a woman is going
[5:01] through when it comes to fertility journey. Never say that. And sure enough, she stepped on a rake
[5:06] because this gal was having fertility issues and it was painful for her. And then what you see is
[5:12] like, Kirstie's interesting to watch in the whole clip because she's, you know, she's, she's an
[5:17] attractive woman, but like across from Blake Lively, most of us look not that great. And so Blake is
[5:23] there and she's gorgeous. Of course, you can't take that away from her. And Kirstie's sitting
[5:27] there kind of awkward now. She's, she's made to feel awkward by the attack on her. She doesn't,
[5:33] she's not trying to offend Blake. She's actually trying to do a nice interview to make her look
[5:38] good. Talk about your baby. That actually makes you less threatening to women at home. Blake,
[5:42] if you're not an idiot, you'd see that. Um, and instead she's on the receiving end of now,
[5:47] both of them attacking her. And she tries to bridge away like, Oh, that, you know, the fashion.
[5:52] And if you've seen cafe society, it is amazing. It goes back in time and it's like a, it's like
[5:57] time travel and the costuming is absolutely stunning in the movie. So it's a normal thing
[6:02] to remark on, but Blake's got to take it as a sexist slight, you know, she's got it. And it's
[6:08] more evidence of her perceiving an offense and like an attack on her where none exists, Zach,
[6:16] which is right at the heart of everything she's saying against Justin Baldoni. We can watch her doing it.
[6:22] To this innocent, sweet journalist before our very eyes. It's a very damning clip for her.
[6:29] It just, it shows you, like you said, exactly who she is. And the fact that she got Parker to jump
[6:38] in on it then adds context to, yeah, now when we see Isabella Ferrer and Jenny Slate who are,
[6:44] and calling Hoover, like you see the way Blake, you know, baits you into then sitting there and
[6:49] being a cackling mean girl. And we saw, and again, the hard part is it's not like
[6:54] with this alleged smear campaign, it's not like there were false headlines that were being pushed
[6:59] out about Blake Lively. It's her own behavior, her own words. This is video footage. You're watching
[7:05] her behavior. And so even if that went viral, I mean, and we don't know if she says that there's
[7:12] no proof, it's, it's, um, untraceable is the term that she likes to use as to why she can't prove it,
[7:18] which untraceable really just means lack of evidence in my opinion. And so for me, it's like,
[7:24] it's your own behavior. Nobody crafted this narrative, but you.
[7:30] Yeah, that is mean girl behavior right there. And then the two of them for the listening audience,
[7:34] Parker Posey and Blake Lively refuse to look at the reporter again. They only look at each other and
[7:42] they do their little mean girl thing. Like, Oh, what about him? This guy's fashion, that guy's
[7:45] fashion. And also what about him? He looks fabulous. It's so passive aggressive, incredible,
[7:50] it oozes passive aggression against their bullies because this reporter is of, again, with respect,
[7:59] lesser importance. And I'm just saying in terms of like the world that they're in at the moment,
[8:04] you know, like these two are the stars. It's, she's lucky to get 10 minutes with them. She's,
[8:09] as a reporter, we're always like the, the lower ones, like running after access and a, a, a gracious
[8:16] celebrity will pretend that's not the dynamic and that there's an equality in that room. Or if
[8:23] anything, the really gracious ones will actually treat you like you're above them. You know, like
[8:28] they're honored to be with you, which is like, those are the nicest ones. I mean, I could name them
[8:33] on one hand who have done that with me and it's been so delightful. I mean, the one who's coming to
[8:37] mind, believe it or not, but there are others, was Christopher Plummer, Captain Von Trapp of Sound
[8:42] of Music, who I got the pleasure of interviewing before he passed. But anyway, but she does exactly
[8:48] the opposite. She commits the ultimate sin, which is she treats her like a serf. And so does Parker
[8:53] Posey. We're not even going to look at you. We're going to mock you and cover you in disdain for having
[8:59] the nerve to ask about a facet of the movie that unbeknownst to you, we didn't want to talk about,
[9:06] but you also, I mean, you and I have been in press junkets before you're given a limited amount of
[9:13] time with these people that your questions are numbered. And like, and so you're, and when you
[9:18] already have that, I'm sure in, in Shirstie's head, she's already thinking of a table of the questions
[9:22] that I had, which ones are not going to offend her? Like you're throwing her off her game. Then you're
[9:26] eating up all her time as the two of you are just cackling and not giving her any sort of
[9:30] acknowledgement, knowing that there's a limited amount of time that she has with you. And then
[9:35] you're using it to, you know, to troll her essentially right in front of her eating up this
[9:41] time that she has affecting her job, because then now she has very little footage that she gets to
[9:47] take back to her news agency that she runs to do her job effectively so that they have a headline or a
[9:52] soundbite or something that they can use. Yeah. It's so rude. No, I'm actually not pregnant. I'm
[9:59] having trouble getting pregnant. I'm not walking around with Ryan Reynolds, baby, having just
[10:05] finished a Woody Allen film in which I was treated like a queen. I don't, I don't have that going on
[10:12] right now, Ms. Lively. I'm sorry. I mean, it was like, she should have been thanking this reporter
[10:17] for just holding her tongue, not speaking out about it for years and letting Cafe Society hit
[10:23] without this bad publicity hitting then and not sticking the knife in because we would have been
[10:27] on, on, is it Shirstie? Is that how you pronounce that? Shirstie, yeah. It's, you know, okay. We would
[10:33] have been on Shirstie's side from the beginning as we all are now. Thanks for watching this clip. If

[11:11] an ounce. Fast forward to today and the U.S. dollar has lost more than 85% of its purchasing power.
[11:17] Gold, on the other hand, has increased in value by over 12,000%. That's why major firms like Vanguard
[11:23] and BlackRock hold significant positions in gold. And that's why you may want to consider diversifying
