And I ordered 0:00:32.400 --> 0:00:37.520 a nice halla to bring over great eatening action packed. 0:00:37.720 --> 0:00:41.239 A few days I heard reading Music festival and I 0:00:41.320 --> 0:00:45.080 know sham packed. Um. Okay, guys, this morning, got a 0:00:45.080 --> 0:00:47.320 lot to get to. Will fill you in on our weekend, 0:00:47.680 --> 0:00:49.080 just to bring you up to speed if you're getting 0:00:49.080 --> 0:00:51.080 ready to head out this morning. We got the heat. 0:00:52.479 --> 0:00:56.160 The heat is back. We're gonna have low one hundreds 0:00:56.200 --> 0:01:01.160 Inland and nineties in other places. This morning. There's a 0:01:01.320 --> 0:01:03.520 Ryan's Roses. We've been meaning to get to that we're 0:01:03.520 --> 0:01:06.360 gonna get to. We're also starting to pay your bills 0:01:06.440 --> 0:01:14.960 next And as I understand it, Kelly Rippa is coming 0:01:15.000 --> 0:01:18.960 by this morning now. Since any Tania, Kelly RiPP has 0:01:18.959 --> 0:01:23.319 written a book of short stories from her life, and 0:01:23.440 --> 0:01:25.840 she is hysterical. You've gotta get a copy of this 0:01:25.840 --> 0:01:28.240 book and read it. She's obviously you know she's funny, 0:01:28.280 --> 0:01:31.800 but she's really a funny writer. And she's a great writer. 0:01:32.640 --> 0:01:36.680 I would say she probably considers herself to be a writer, Uh, 0:01:36.720 --> 0:01:38.240 not an author per se, but a writer like she 0:01:38.240 --> 0:01:43.039 can write script. And so she's written this book over 0:01:43.080 --> 0:01:45.319 the course of a couple of years. And she's coming 0:01:45.319 --> 0:01:48.680 in here and just a little bit to talk her. 0:01:49.760 --> 0:01:52.400 Ryan's roses coming. Kelly Rippa comments, all happened this morning, 0:01:52.440 --> 0:01:54.640 on this Monday, Monica l A, how can we help you? 0:01:54.680 --> 0:01:58.760 Good morning, Hi, good morning, good morning. What's going on? 0:02:00.120 --> 0:02:02.760 I wanted to ask you for a little advice. Um, 0:02:03.000 --> 0:02:07.640 there's a situation. My extra and I um broke up 0:02:07.680 --> 0:02:09.400 because I found out that he was cheating on me 0:02:09.840 --> 0:02:12.960 and impregnated another girl. So that happened. And now we 0:02:13.000 --> 0:02:17.120 have a ten year old daughter and she came home 0:02:17.120 --> 0:02:20.440 one day and she said, Mom, this little girl's bothering me. Um. 0:02:20.480 --> 0:02:25.320 She keeps saying, that's my sister. So UM, now it's 0:02:25.320 --> 0:02:28.960 a small world. It's a little girl that you know 0:02:29.040 --> 0:02:30.720 that he the girl that he cheated on me with 0:02:30.880 --> 0:02:33.960 had a baby, and she's four months apart from my daughters. 0:02:34.120 --> 0:02:37.480 And so they see each other at school. Yes, so 0:02:37.639 --> 0:02:40.000 they go to the same school. It's a small world, 0:02:40.040 --> 0:02:41.520 I know, they go to the same school. And the 0:02:41.520 --> 0:02:44.960 little girl father's my daughter. Hey, I'm your sister, and 0:02:45.080 --> 0:02:47.880 I didn't My daughter didn't know anything. So this whole time, 0:02:48.160 --> 0:02:51.560 her dad hasn't been in her life. And he started 0:02:51.600 --> 0:02:54.680 coming into her life and told her, yes, that's your sister. 0:02:54.840 --> 0:02:56.960 My daughter was like a little shocked, and she said, well, 0:02:56.960 --> 0:03:01.360 she keeps bothering me. So he started, you know, becoming 0:03:01.360 --> 0:03:03.720 more active in her life, going to school, picking her 0:03:03.840 --> 0:03:07.160 up and stuff. So I have a fiance that she 0:03:07.280 --> 0:03:10.760 didn't know. She doesn't know that, you know, that's her sister. 0:03:10.960 --> 0:03:13.160 She doesn't know anything the backstory because I didn't want 0:03:13.200 --> 0:03:15.880 to tell her because she's my fiance. Has been in 0:03:15.880 --> 0:03:19.399 her life since my daughter was four. So I told 0:03:19.440 --> 0:03:22.080 her the backstory and I and she said, wait, so 0:03:22.680 --> 0:03:25.480 the dad is coming around that doesn't do anything for her, 0:03:25.680 --> 0:03:29.760 that's not active. It's my consistent and he's a non factor. 0:03:29.800 --> 0:03:32.400 And now you're letting your daughter talk to him. And 0:03:32.440 --> 0:03:34.920 I said, well, that's her dad, no matter what that's 0:03:34.920 --> 0:03:37.920 still her dad. I'm not gonna stop that. So she's 0:03:37.960 --> 0:03:40.600 breaking up the engagement. She doesn't want to get married anymore. 0:03:41.280 --> 0:03:45.600 That I'm a liar, and that you know that I 0:03:45.680 --> 0:03:47.839 just liked to her the whole time, but I didn't lie. 0:03:47.880 --> 0:03:50.840 I just didn't want to tell her because you know 0:03:50.880 --> 0:03:53.480 I was going to create a problem. So okay, I 0:03:53.600 --> 0:03:57.840 just let me understand. Your fiance that wants to break 0:03:57.920 --> 0:04:01.840 up is a woman, your ex as a man, yes, okay, 0:04:01.880 --> 0:04:04.200 and your fiance thought you were hiding this from her 0:04:04.240 --> 0:04:06.760 all along. The small world thing happens, the half sister 0:04:07.040 --> 0:04:10.280 is talking to your daughter, and all of this comes 0:04:10.320 --> 0:04:13.840 now to fruition in the present, and you were just 0:04:13.880 --> 0:04:16.760 trying to protect the people close to you by not 0:04:16.839 --> 0:04:21.800 having these conversations. Is that about right? That's right? So, Monica, 0:04:21.920 --> 0:04:26.039 have you had a chance to sit your fiance down 0:04:26.160 --> 0:04:29.360 and walk her through your decision making process and why 0:04:29.440 --> 0:04:33.120 you decided not to go down certain paths to protect others, 0:04:33.160 --> 0:04:37.040 not for yourself but for others. I just I didn't 0:04:37.080 --> 0:04:39.160 feel like I had to say anything because it was 0:04:39.160 --> 0:04:45.560 gonna start an argument because being different. But I think 0:04:46.120 --> 0:04:49.000 I don't. I mean, look, some people can hear something 0:04:49.240 --> 0:04:52.839 and they get emotional and their reaction to it because 0:04:52.880 --> 0:04:57.719 they're taken by surprise and it strikes them blindly and 0:04:57.760 --> 0:05:00.160 they need a moment to react. Maybe the wrong, ay, 0:05:00.480 --> 0:05:02.240 but they need a moment to react. And I think 0:05:02.279 --> 0:05:04.680 that by you saying to your fiance, who should give 0:05:04.680 --> 0:05:07.400 you the respect to sitting down and talking. Let me 0:05:07.880 --> 0:05:11.520 tell you why these things happened this way, and let 0:05:11.520 --> 0:05:14.760 me tell you why I made these decisions. And if 0:05:14.800 --> 0:05:17.080 you can't see I was doing that to protect my 0:05:17.200 --> 0:05:20.400 daughter or to not get in a way of you know, 0:05:20.839 --> 0:05:24.840 my ex and his ability to communicate with his daughter. 0:05:24.839 --> 0:05:27.440 If you can't see the intention behind all of it, 0:05:27.720 --> 0:05:29.640 then okay, we do have a problem. You need to 0:05:29.720 --> 0:05:32.400 understand what I was dealing with, what I was going through, 0:05:32.760 --> 0:05:34.760 and I was trying to make the best decisions I 0:05:34.800 --> 0:05:38.440 could for everybody in the moment. If she after a minute, 0:05:38.839 --> 0:05:40.680 once she gets a chance to calm down and think 0:05:40.680 --> 0:05:43.240 it through, if she doesn't still understand that, then there's 0:05:43.279 --> 0:05:45.440 nothing you can do about it. But she needs to 0:05:45.520 --> 0:05:47.960 hear your why behind all of it and let that 0:05:48.040 --> 0:05:50.120 sit with her for a minute. I feel like it's 0:05:50.200 --> 0:05:52.360 very fresh right now, and you just need to give 0:05:52.360 --> 0:05:55.560 it time. Hopefully, if she loves you, I mean, you 0:05:55.600 --> 0:05:59.880 guys are gonna get married, she'll come around. And she 0:06:00.279 --> 0:06:03.200 describe after you talked to her about your why, then 0:06:03.240 --> 0:06:06.560 she's not the right woman for you. I know. I 0:06:07.720 --> 0:06:09.440 think that's what it is. I told her if she 0:06:09.520 --> 0:06:12.240 can't understand the core parenting for she said, there's no 0:06:12.279 --> 0:06:15.440 core parenting because he doesn't do anything. And I mean 0:06:15.880 --> 0:06:19.039 whatever little he does, I don't want to stop it. 0:06:20.120 --> 0:06:23.000 You have to just be honest with why you made 0:06:23.040 --> 0:06:26.120 certain choices and decisions. Let her think it through, and 0:06:26.120 --> 0:06:28.800 if she doesn't understand it, it's not right for you. 0:06:29.000 --> 0:06:33.080 It's just not Monica. Good luck. It's complicated, I know, 0:06:33.200 --> 0:06:34.560 and I wish you the best of luck with this. 0:06:36.160 --> 0:06:41.120 Thank you, Okay, bye again. You just don't know. In 0:06:41.160 --> 0:06:44.000 the heat of learning new information and caught by surprise, 0:06:44.400 --> 0:06:46.120 you may react in a way that you don't really 0:06:46.160 --> 0:06:48.919 want to react in the long run. But that's a 0:06:49.160 --> 0:06:53.640 very complex scenario. They both have to see each other's 0:06:53.640 --> 0:06:56.359 perspective on it. Not just the fiance. I think that 0:06:56.680 --> 0:06:59.680 every everybody. It's it's always because not having a kid, 0:06:59.680 --> 0:07:03.240 in upping into a child's life and being a parent figure, 0:07:03.240 --> 0:07:06.480 even though you're not like that's a huge deal, you know, 0:07:07.640 --> 0:07:12.240 but understanding everybody's choices and and and views is going 0:07:12.280 --> 0:07:15.000 to be important in that complex scenario. And if somebody 0:07:15.040 --> 0:07:16.600 doesn't want to do that or hear it or listen 0:07:16.640 --> 0:07:18.840 to it, then it kind of nets itself out. So 0:07:19.040 --> 0:07:23.240 meetings can be a drag zoom zoom zoom, zoom zoom, zoom, 0:07:23.320 --> 0:07:25.840 zoom zoom zoom. Um. If you find yourself in a 0:07:25.880 --> 0:07:27.720 bad mood sort of when you log off of your 0:07:27.840 --> 0:07:33.400 zoom meetings, they tell me to try this, put it 0:07:33.440 --> 0:07:36.760 in speaker of you so you can't see yourself. Researchers 0:07:36.760 --> 0:07:39.440 found the more people looked at themselves, uh, the worst 0:07:39.440 --> 0:07:42.400 their moods got. So put it in the speaker of view. 0:07:42.480 --> 0:07:45.280 So this person speaking is the one scene you're not seen. 0:07:45.840 --> 0:07:47.840 You're gonna have a happier day. Yeah, it makes sense 0:07:48.400 --> 0:07:51.920 unless you're the speaker and whatever. Yeah, then you should 0:07:52.000 --> 0:07:56.440 skip that meeting. Today's quote don't let social media turn 0:07:56.480 --> 0:07:59.040 you into a copy of what you see working for others. 0:07:59.080 --> 0:08:05.720 Just be yourself. True headlines. Well. Governor Gavin Newsom voted 0:08:05.800 --> 0:08:10.640 legislation last night that would have required children to attend kindergarten, 0:08:10.960 --> 0:08:15.160 whether through homeschooling, public or private school, before entering first 0:08:15.200 --> 0:08:18.200 grade at a public school. Newsom sided that costs associated 0:08:18.240 --> 0:08:22.240 with providing mandatory kindergarten, which he said was not accounted 0:08:22.280 --> 0:08:26.280 for in the California budget. NASA is gepping their launch 0:08:26.320 --> 0:08:29.320 attempt of its new Moon rocket because of a tropical 0:08:29.320 --> 0:08:33.000 storm that's expected to become a major hurricane. It's the 0:08:33.040 --> 0:08:36.360 third delay in the past month for the lunar orbiting 0:08:36.400 --> 0:08:40.760 test flight featuring mannequins but no astronauts. And the NFL 0:08:40.800 --> 0:08:43.880 confirmed that Rihanna will take center stage at February Super 0:08:43.920 --> 0:08:47.160 Bowl halftime show. The fifty seven Super Bowl will take 0:08:47.160 --> 0:08:52.199 place on February twelve at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. 0:08:53.200 --> 0:08:59.959 On air with Ryan seacrets, well we did it. We've 0:09:00.080 --> 0:09:03.439 uh accomplished another. I think it's the twelve I heard 0:09:03.520 --> 0:09:06.960 radio music festival that we've had. Everybody's out there in 0:09:07.280 --> 0:09:11.120 Las Vegas. Now I've got a bunch of clips from 0:09:11.160 --> 0:09:14.080 the artist. But it all started with actually it all 0:09:14.120 --> 0:09:18.960 started with me seeing Syssany and Tanya and Robbie just 0:09:19.120 --> 0:09:23.800 before Pitball went on stage. That was the first because 0:09:23.960 --> 0:09:26.600 we all got there separately. We all were in our 0:09:26.640 --> 0:09:29.480 hotels separately. I guess we all changed close everyly. And 0:09:29.520 --> 0:09:31.720 then at the team Obile well, of course we did that. 0:09:31.800 --> 0:09:33.720 But and then at the team Obile arena, I don't know. 0:09:33.960 --> 0:09:37.040 I don't know about y'all sometimes, But at the team 0:09:37.040 --> 0:09:42.480 Obile arena backstage there was Cisany, Tanya and Robbie, Tany's boyfriend, 0:09:42.520 --> 0:09:44.200 and I have to say he was very casual, nice 0:09:44.200 --> 0:09:47.000 tight jeans, some good boots and a T shirt. Yeah 0:09:47.080 --> 0:09:49.319 he didn't night. Both nights he had jeans and the 0:09:49.559 --> 0:09:51.360 night too was a white T shirt and white singers. 0:09:51.559 --> 0:09:53.840 I just walked in on What did I walk in on? Sisney? 0:09:53.920 --> 0:09:56.160 What was going on there? Walking on Robbie? What do 0:09:56.160 --> 0:09:58.160 you mean we walked in on the three of you. 0:09:58.480 --> 0:10:01.280 We were waiting for you? Oh what were you waiting 0:10:01.320 --> 0:10:04.360 for me for? We were supposed to take family pictures. 0:10:04.400 --> 0:10:07.920 That never happened. Well, your voice sounds like the festival. 0:10:08.200 --> 0:10:11.199 My voice is gone, you guys. Is that he was 0:10:11.240 --> 0:10:12.880 a good sport thane. He was holding my purse the 0:10:12.920 --> 0:10:14.720 whole time. He was like on purse duty, which is 0:10:14.760 --> 0:10:17.080 really nice. Did we miss the photo? I remember we 0:10:17.080 --> 0:10:19.480 were talking to and I was pulled away, I know 0:10:19.640 --> 0:10:24.920 because he had to interview Sam Smith right Sam Smiths 0:10:25.120 --> 0:10:28.960 song and Holy Fantastic uh and pit Bull kicked it 0:10:29.000 --> 0:10:38.360 all off on Night one. Was talking in backstage that 0:10:38.880 --> 0:10:40.840 I thought I had energy. I thought I was like 0:10:41.280 --> 0:10:43.400 moving fast. That guy moves at a different I could 0:10:43.440 --> 0:10:45.520 not keep up with pit Bull, the speed at which 0:10:45.520 --> 0:10:48.600 he moves. I love him so much. I'm gonna go 0:10:48.600 --> 0:10:50.240 see him tomorrow night the Bull. He's gonna beat the 0:10:50.240 --> 0:10:53.040 Holiday Ball. He doesn't stop, he was stop. He was 0:10:53.040 --> 0:10:54.760 on his way out to go somewhere else after the 0:10:54.800 --> 0:10:56.800 festival that night. What was the highlight for you, sis 0:10:57.640 --> 0:11:00.560 um Well? Him kicking off. I honestly didn't realized that 0:11:00.600 --> 0:11:03.040 people was starting the show, and so when it like started, 0:11:03.080 --> 0:11:06.320 I was like running to like my seat to see him. 0:11:06.360 --> 0:11:10.120 But I would say from start to finish of Night one, 0:11:10.840 --> 0:11:14.840 Diplow closing it out was one of my faves. And 0:11:14.880 --> 0:11:19.480 then I ended up at Diplow's like he was DJing 0:11:19.480 --> 0:11:22.000 at excess and I ended up in I ended up 0:11:22.000 --> 0:11:23.920 in his DJ booth. By the end of that night, 0:11:23.960 --> 0:11:27.360 I'm glad it was you. I'm glad it was you 0:11:27.600 --> 0:11:30.559 because he said to me, you're gonna come out afterwards, right, 0:11:30.679 --> 0:11:33.920 I'm like absolutely, And we traded phone numbers cell phones 0:11:34.360 --> 0:11:40.319 and he ran a test on me, he said, And 0:11:40.360 --> 0:11:43.040 then I finished the show night one. I was so 0:11:43.200 --> 0:11:45.240 tired that I went home and I said, Okay, if 0:11:45.240 --> 0:11:49.320 he texts me, I'll go. He's not gonna text you, 0:11:49.360 --> 0:11:52.839 like sup you up? Like he doesn't text me. I'm 0:11:52.880 --> 0:11:57.360 staying in the DJ booth because part of me wanted 0:11:57.400 --> 0:12:00.240 to go see him play late, late, late at a sess, 0:12:00.280 --> 0:12:03.520 which you did, which it was very lately he I mean, 0:12:03.520 --> 0:12:05.079 we were there till like four in the morning and 0:12:06.360 --> 0:12:10.360 Jamie Fox came out. It was insane. Jimmie Fox beaches 0:12:10.400 --> 0:12:13.280 am and then he's this guy's all over the point. 0:12:13.480 --> 0:12:15.840 It's so much fun. What was the highlight for you, 0:12:15.920 --> 0:12:20.760 Tania Um. I have to say watching Marion Morris perform 0:12:21.000 --> 0:12:23.360 the Bones, because that's my song with my boyfriend, and 0:12:23.400 --> 0:12:25.600 we were right there and I got really emotional, and 0:12:25.640 --> 0:12:27.960 that was just like the highlight of the week. That's 0:12:28.120 --> 0:12:31.640 your couple's songs, that's our that's our song, Like, yeah, 0:12:31.679 --> 0:12:34.040 that's your couple songs. So it was really special to 0:12:34.040 --> 0:12:37.160 see that. And then actually on the first night after 0:12:37.200 --> 0:12:38.839 the show was over, we went to go eat at 0:12:38.840 --> 0:12:41.600 Delilah and Sam Smith was sitting at the table right 0:12:41.640 --> 0:12:50.880 behind us, sobbing after hours with all of the pop stars. Yeah, 0:12:51.000 --> 0:12:54.200 did you talk to Sam Smith at Delilah after the festival? 0:12:54.720 --> 0:12:57.320 Sure did. When when they sat down, I went right 0:12:57.400 --> 0:12:59.280 up and said, oh my gosh, it's nice to see you. 0:12:59.280 --> 0:13:01.760 It's been a few years. And they were like, yes, 0:13:01.800 --> 0:13:05.040 how are you totally remembered me? And so I just 0:13:05.040 --> 0:13:08.199 said that we really enjoyed. Their performance was honestly was 0:13:08.240 --> 0:13:10.080 the highlight of night one for me, and so that 0:13:10.120 --> 0:13:12.000 was really fun. Robin got to meet them and it 0:13:12.080 --> 0:13:14.240 was really fun dancing the whole night. And you know, 0:13:14.320 --> 0:13:16.520 Diddy was there too, and he brought out his son 0:13:16.800 --> 0:13:19.800 King Combs. Of course he did this song which everybody 0:13:21.840 --> 0:13:23.640 did you forget that he has been in the game 0:13:23.760 --> 0:13:27.120 since the beginning of the game so many it was 0:13:27.160 --> 0:13:29.640 like after head, well, I mean he's got so many songs. 0:13:30.200 --> 0:13:35.760 J course, so it was good. Wait what were you 0:13:35.800 --> 0:13:39.760 filming with Leslie Jones? Oh, Leslie Jones, I saw you 0:13:39.840 --> 0:13:42.440 so that I barely saw you night too, and when 0:13:42.440 --> 0:13:46.520 I did. We have a very interesting relationship. We love 0:13:46.559 --> 0:13:48.760 each other and we've worked together. We didn't like we've 0:13:48.760 --> 0:13:50.760 done things over there. Yeah you do, yes from like 0:13:50.760 --> 0:13:53.400 the Olympics. I remember that we really connected at the 0:13:53.400 --> 0:13:56.160 Olympics in Rio, when she was doing the TV show 0:13:56.240 --> 0:13:59.439 with me. I was doing an NBC anyway, she reminded 0:13:59.440 --> 0:14:02.080 me at the festival. We were backstage shooting and open 0:14:02.200 --> 0:14:04.760 for the TV show that's gonna air later, and basically 0:14:04.800 --> 0:14:06.720 the whole thing was like, you know, me holding a 0:14:06.760 --> 0:14:08.440 script and she's like, Ryan, you're not doing it a lot. 0:14:08.480 --> 0:14:10.040 The people in the back kid hear you. You gotta 0:14:10.080 --> 0:14:11.880 do it like this, and then she screams my lines. 0:14:11.920 --> 0:14:13.959 I'm like, I mean, like, no more like this from 0:14:13.960 --> 0:14:15.839 the chest, from the chest and dust hear Old Leslie 0:14:15.880 --> 0:14:18.760 Jones thinks, And I said, uh, what's so great to 0:14:18.760 --> 0:14:20.960 see you? She goes, you know, remember the first time 0:14:21.000 --> 0:14:22.960 we met? And I'm like, you know, I can never 0:14:22.960 --> 0:14:27.760 remember anytime anybody asked me that I'm dead. I'm dead. 0:14:27.840 --> 0:14:29.520 If you say, do you remember when we first met, 0:14:29.560 --> 0:14:32.800 I'm dead. So I went out on a limb and 0:14:32.840 --> 0:14:37.520 I was like, yes, real, She goes, no, SNL okay, 0:14:37.600 --> 0:14:40.080 that's right. So years before I met at SNL at 0:14:40.080 --> 0:14:43.160 the SNL afterpart and she goes, I'll never forget it 0:14:43.200 --> 0:14:46.600 because I said to you, you know what, Ryan Secrest, 0:14:46.720 --> 0:14:49.280 I don't really like you, and you said to me back, 0:14:49.400 --> 0:14:53.640 why not? You didn't really care that I didn't really 0:14:53.640 --> 0:14:56.080 like you. Want to know why I didn't really like you. 0:14:56.080 --> 0:14:58.040 You know, it's to know much more. But why? What 0:14:58.080 --> 0:15:00.280 was it specifically? And you kept saying no, But like 0:15:00.320 --> 0:15:02.520 tell me because I really think I was trying to 0:15:02.560 --> 0:15:04.040 make a case for myself. I was like, I really 0:15:04.040 --> 0:15:06.520 think you would like me, but why don't you? Because 0:15:06.560 --> 0:15:09.080 I want to know. It turns out now she really 0:15:09.120 --> 0:15:11.640 likes me. That's funny because she didn't know me, so 0:15:11.680 --> 0:15:13.000 she didn't know me. She was the oldster. Was like, 0:15:13.040 --> 0:15:17.000 she didn't know me, and you know, maybe I turned 0:15:17.000 --> 0:15:20.280 people off often? That great. I think she was joking 0:15:20.320 --> 0:15:22.760 when she said that. She made have been serious. I 0:15:22.760 --> 0:15:26.800 don't know, but that somebody and Leslie Jones. I was like, why, 0:15:26.920 --> 0:15:28.200 just tell me why. I just want to know why. 0:15:28.480 --> 0:15:30.600 And now we're now we're actually wanted to do a 0:15:30.600 --> 0:15:32.840 show together. You were like doing a dance. I was like, oh, 0:15:32.920 --> 0:15:34.440 I need to not be in this show. I was 0:15:34.480 --> 0:15:37.960 like walking around, Yes, obviously backstage people come to me 0:15:38.000 --> 0:15:41.200 for ideas for their choreography, and Leslie Jones is one 0:15:41.240 --> 0:15:43.240 of them. I can't wait to see what you guys 0:15:43.240 --> 0:15:46.640 came up with. So anyway, what a show? Two nights 0:15:46.640 --> 0:15:53.440 of it too? On air with Ryan Seacrest, I brought 0:15:53.920 --> 0:15:58.480 some show and tell here live Wire herself cracking with 0:15:59.400 --> 0:16:02.640 the cracking witted Kelly Rippa. Ladies and gentlemen joining us 0:16:02.640 --> 0:16:05.040 here on this Monday morning. Don't you love a press 0:16:05.080 --> 0:16:11.360 release from like the publicity team? So I so, I've 0:16:11.400 --> 0:16:13.960 known Kelly for twenty plus years, but I was handed 0:16:14.040 --> 0:16:18.040 by our team and the Live Wire book team. Let's 0:16:18.080 --> 0:16:20.760 hear what they have to say. They say she's a sharp, funny, honest, 0:16:21.280 --> 0:16:24.200 uh collector of real life stories. It's Kelly Ripper showing 0:16:24.240 --> 0:16:27.560 the many dimensions and crackling wit of the beloved daytime 0:16:27.600 --> 0:16:29.440 talk show host. And that is who we brought in 0:16:29.440 --> 0:16:31.040 this morning to talk to you. You know, I should 0:16:31.040 --> 0:16:33.960 have written the press release too. It wasn't enough to 0:16:34.000 --> 0:16:35.760 write the book. I should have written the press release. 0:16:35.800 --> 0:16:39.320 I will say, Uh, you're looking at three people that 0:16:39.360 --> 0:16:41.120 have never written a book, and I, for one can 0:16:41.160 --> 0:16:43.920 say after this, I will never write a book. Oh yeah, 0:16:44.440 --> 0:16:47.600 because you've the process with me. You I couldn't. I'm 0:16:47.640 --> 0:16:49.680 not capable of it. You wrote this, she wrote this 0:16:49.760 --> 0:16:51.840 live wire book over the last how long by yourself? 0:16:51.880 --> 0:16:54.880 How long it took door to door two years? Two 0:16:54.960 --> 0:16:58.680 years of literally like doing every das, going home on 0:16:58.720 --> 0:17:02.920 the weekends at night, no socializing, and put together all 0:17:02.920 --> 0:17:06.120 these stories of real life though, yeah, they're real life stories. 0:17:06.520 --> 0:17:08.639 I blame the Gems of New York City. Had the 0:17:08.720 --> 0:17:11.880 gym has been open during the pandemic, this book would 0:17:11.920 --> 0:17:15.639 not have been poor. But a girl had time on 0:17:15.680 --> 0:17:19.919 her hands. And you know, I've always kept a journal. 0:17:20.600 --> 0:17:23.840 I found it very useful to go back and reflect 0:17:24.080 --> 0:17:28.080 and reread, and it's really an interesting thing to see 0:17:28.520 --> 0:17:32.560 emotionally mentally, uh, where I was at certain point points 0:17:32.560 --> 0:17:37.280 in my life and um and and how much things 0:17:37.320 --> 0:17:40.359 have changed a lot, but yet how they remain the 0:17:40.400 --> 0:17:43.159 same in a lot of ways. And you know, I 0:17:43.440 --> 0:17:49.120 found it enormously helpful to uh, to have those reference 0:17:49.160 --> 0:17:52.760 points in my life to use for the book as 0:17:52.840 --> 0:17:55.760 sort of an outline, which I'm told is what most 0:17:55.840 --> 0:17:58.800 writers work from, is an outline. I sort of started 0:17:58.800 --> 0:18:01.879 out writing freehand, and I'm not kidding freehand with a 0:18:01.920 --> 0:18:04.840 pen in a paper, and I moved to a keyboard 0:18:04.880 --> 0:18:08.600 and a computer. Um, but it was it was hard. 0:18:08.640 --> 0:18:11.159 It was not easy. It's I will never read a 0:18:11.200 --> 0:18:14.240 book the same way again, the same sort of cavalier enjoyment. 0:18:14.320 --> 0:18:16.440 Now I think about the writer and how they suffered. 0:18:18.000 --> 0:18:20.680 But as a writer, you have a really really great 0:18:20.680 --> 0:18:22.600 sense of humor. And I mean, you speak candidly on 0:18:22.600 --> 0:18:24.840 our show every day, but you're even more candid in 0:18:24.840 --> 0:18:28.680 this book. In the writing, you can speak a little more. 0:18:29.080 --> 0:18:31.440 But these are your stories? Is your life? Yeah, these 0:18:31.440 --> 0:18:34.879 are my stories. There's a few stories about my early childhood, 0:18:35.160 --> 0:18:39.160 a few stories about moving to New York and finding 0:18:39.200 --> 0:18:43.560 employment and meeting my husband and then getting what we 0:18:43.640 --> 0:18:47.399 call my foncy job, which is the talk show. And 0:18:47.440 --> 0:18:51.119 then uh, there's a thrilling character in the New Testament, 0:18:51.920 --> 0:18:55.760 which is Ryan Seacrest, who is who I sort of 0:18:55.840 --> 0:18:58.600 take liberties with your character. I portray you as maybe 0:18:58.640 --> 0:19:02.119 a superhero who lives in a subterranean layer. I love 0:19:02.240 --> 0:19:04.640 the character. She's creative of me. She called me the boy. 0:19:04.680 --> 0:19:07.840 Wonder you guys have never called me that? Has it? 0:19:07.920 --> 0:19:09.920 Never cast your mind? What we call you a lot 0:19:09.960 --> 0:19:17.520 of things, but that's mostly behind your back. But I 0:19:17.600 --> 0:19:22.000 really wrote the book for uh, for everyone, but it's 0:19:22.040 --> 0:19:24.160 a love letter to women. It really is a love 0:19:24.280 --> 0:19:29.520 letter to women and to UH people who are what 0:19:29.600 --> 0:19:32.880 I call women friendly, and Ryan you would be very 0:19:32.960 --> 0:19:38.119 women friendly. My husband is uh one of the most 0:19:38.440 --> 0:19:42.240 UH female forward thinking men I know, Like he really 0:19:42.280 --> 0:19:46.159 advocates from a place of what would make my wife, 0:19:46.280 --> 0:19:49.000 my daughter, my mother's life easier, what would make my 0:19:49.080 --> 0:19:51.879 sister's life better, what would make my the women in 0:19:51.960 --> 0:19:54.280 my life, what would make their lives better? And so 0:19:54.480 --> 0:19:58.439 this is a love note to to women and and 0:19:58.800 --> 0:20:03.120 people who have supported women. I love that I get 0:20:03.160 --> 0:20:05.479 your copy, gets you signed copy. Yeah, and it's so 0:20:05.600 --> 0:20:08.840 beautiful by the way, Oh thanks. I wanted people to 0:20:08.880 --> 0:20:11.040 think it was Sarah Jessica Parker on the cover, and 0:20:14.040 --> 0:20:16.640 don't you think it was like genius on my part. 0:20:16.920 --> 0:20:19.640 Everybody said, oh, that picture looks like Sarah Jessica Parker. 0:20:19.680 --> 0:20:25.000 I really think that's the one way. Kelly Ripper Live 0:20:25.040 --> 0:20:28.199 Wire is out tomorrow, so make sure you pick up 0:20:28.200 --> 0:20:30.440 a copy of that book where books are sold.

And when you asked him about it, 0:21:01.200 --> 0:21:03.840 you saw it. It was clear. When you asked your 0:21:03.880 --> 0:21:05.879 husband about what looked to be like a hickey, what 0:21:05.920 --> 0:21:09.240 did he tell you? He said that he had an 0:21:09.240 --> 0:21:13.720 allergic reaction to the soap at the hotel. And was 0:21:13.760 --> 0:21:19.080 it was it like was it local, like a really 0:21:19.160 --> 0:21:22.600 small area or was it all over his neck? It 0:21:22.720 --> 0:21:27.439 was it was like pretty local, but it was very defined, 0:21:27.720 --> 0:21:29.840 like I could see it on the camera click. It 0:21:30.000 --> 0:21:33.320 was a real contrast to his skin and this mark. Yeah. Absolutely. 0:21:33.640 --> 0:21:36.040 And you also tell me in your email that you've 0:21:36.040 --> 0:21:38.960 always been able to tell when your husband is lying, 0:21:39.160 --> 0:21:43.880 and you saw what you thought was a lie. Yeah, 0:21:44.040 --> 0:21:51.200 he he has no no ability to lie whatsoever. And yeah, 0:21:51.520 --> 0:21:53.359 how many days was he gone in Chicago for this 0:21:53.359 --> 0:21:57.280 work trip altogether? Was like three days? Like money to Wednesday. 0:21:57.280 --> 0:21:59.480 I think have you caught him in lies? You say 0:21:59.520 --> 0:22:01.040 you can tell when he's lying. Have you caught him 0:22:01.040 --> 0:22:05.760 in lies before? Yeah? I've cut him stupid things like 0:22:07.000 --> 0:22:10.600 you know, leaving the fence open and the dog got out. 0:22:10.640 --> 0:22:12.919
