00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:32,560

00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:37,000
Speaker 3: nearly four decades, bealal Salam, filed a three million dollar

14
00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:44,839
Speaker 3: According to the complaint, the alleged confrontation took place at

15
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:47,879
Speaker 3: Will's birthday party back in September of twenty twenty one,

16
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:51,479
Speaker 3: when Jada and a group of about seven people supposedly

17
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:54,480
Speaker 3: surrounded him in a hotel lobby and warned him that

18
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 3: he would quote end up missing or catch a bullet

19
00:00:57,200 --> 00:00:59,000
Speaker 3: if he kept telling her personal business.

20
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 1: He claims the threats didn't end.

21
00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:03,920
Speaker 3: There, though he says a member of her entrage followed

22
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 3: him to his car, and that after he refused to

23
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 3: help manage a supposed PR crisis after the infamous Oscars slap.

24
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:13,560
Speaker 1: We didn't talk about it, but that happened.

25
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:17,400
Speaker 3: The threats and harassment escalated even more at this point.

26
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,760
Speaker 1: I as far as I've seen Jada or Will.

27
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:24,479
Speaker 3: They have not publicly responded, but the lawsuit marks kind

28
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 3: of a dramatic escalation in this saga that's been going

29
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 3: on for a long time. Oprah is facing lots of

30
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:36,560
Speaker 3: backlash over her latest discussion about going no contact with

31
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:39,559
Speaker 3: family members, and it's I mean, that's already a conversation

32
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,120
Speaker 3: that you know, people are going to have heated feelings over,

33
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 3: but she's being accused of inappropriately framing the debate for

34
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 3: her podcast.

35
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 1: So she first kicked off the conversation.

36
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 3: She uploaded I don't know if you guys saw it,

37
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 3: a video to her Instagram account for her twenty two

38
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 3: and a half million followers to tease the episode. She said,

39
00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 3: around one third of Americans have cut ties with their

40
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 3: family and that once considered taboo, going no contact with

41
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 3: your family is now being openly discussed by people of

42
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 3: all ages. People are now redefining what healthy boundaries look

43
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:13,920
Speaker 3: like in family dynamics, and she explained that guests experts

44
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 3: would be talking about adult children who have cut off

45
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,360
Speaker 3: their parents, and then parents who have been a strange

46
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 3: I don't know, you know how you become an expert

47
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 3: in that area, maybe a therapist or something. But after

48
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:28,520
Speaker 3: the episode aired, viewers and listeners felt she approached this

49
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,640
Speaker 3: whole debate the wrong way. Many people questioned why the

50
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:34,720
Speaker 3: idea was presented as a broader trend rather than a

51
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 3: personal boundary shaped by an individual experience. And with this,

52
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 3: of course, everybody had an opinion Online. One person wrote,

53
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 3: I understand why people go no contact. I don't understand

54
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,960
Speaker 3: why Oprah is showcasing it in this way that makes

55
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 3: it seem like a cult. Another person said, dear Oprah,

56
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 3: shut up. You have no clue about what people.

57
00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:58,000
Speaker 1: Really I know I feel her pain.

58
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:00,640
Speaker 3: You have no clue about what people are going through,

59
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 3: and calling no contact a trend is just letting abusers

60
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:07,080
Speaker 3: keep abusing. I've seen a lot of people discuss it

61
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 3: on TikTok as well, and of course it's you know,

62
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 3: it's up to you to do what works. But people

63
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:14,959
Speaker 3: felt like she was kind of like promoting it and

64
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 3: like saying it's okay, rather than talking about why it happens. So,

65
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:22,280
Speaker 3: you know, anything you do, everybody's going to have opinions.

66
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:26,359
Speaker 3: And Leslie Kelsey Ballerini is shutting down all those rumors.

67
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,359
Speaker 3: After weeks of online chatter about her breakup with Chase Stokes,

68
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:31,240
Speaker 3: I mean he kind of included us in that. She

69
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:33,760
Speaker 3: posted a message to fans saying she's in a steady

70
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 3: and happy place, which is definitely what I say when

71
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 3: I'm a steady and happy place. And once her personal

72
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 3: life kept private, she stressed that unless someone comes directly

73
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 3: from her, something comes from her.

74
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 1: It shouldn't be believed.

75
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 3: This comes after, you know, they sparked their reunion buzz

76
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 3: when they were spotted holding hands in Croatia, followed by

77
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 3: Chase suggesting online that he had been blocked. She isn't

78
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 3: addressing any of that directly, just saying she's protecting her piece,

79
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 3: which is a buzz word buzz phrase these days, and

80
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 3: keeping her real life offline. But certainly something was going

81
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 3: on because he was like telling us that it wasn't

82
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 3: his fault, and we don't even we didn't even know

83
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:14,360
Speaker 3: something was his fault and lastly, a really quick Giving Tuesday.

84
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,720
Speaker 3: Today tonight, you guys were asking about Fred the Puppy.

85
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:19,480
Speaker 3: I don't believe he's on the website yet, but he

86
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:22,279
Speaker 3: will be featured in their Facebook live tonight if you
