But this is the this 25 00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:08,600 Speaker 1: is the attorney that is representing the guardian that Wendy 26 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:10,959 Speaker 1: Williams had begun some of the testing, some of the 27 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,880 Speaker 1: cognitive testing to free her of her guardianship. 28 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:15,880 Speaker 2: But things are, you know, moving, but they're they're taking 29 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:16,360 Speaker 2: their time. 30 00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:20,240 Speaker 1: But you know, there's been times with the guardianship and 31 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:21,720 Speaker 1: you know, the people involved in US side have come 32 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:23,240 Speaker 1: out and said things and Wendy Williams have been like 33 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 1: completely not true. 34 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:26,680 Speaker 2: But that is what I was told from the attorneys there. 35 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 1: I did reach out to Wendy's attorney to get anything 36 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 1: on what I was told, and they did not. 37 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:34,840 Speaker 2: Respond to me.

I'm like, man, 51 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:14,080 Speaker 1: is it really a happy birthday? Because she still wakes 52 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 1: up in that room where she can't even receive phone calls. 53 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 1: She has to call out. But Whitney did actually end 54 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 1: up going out for her birthday. She went out for 55 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 1: dinner and it had been established. I told you guys, 56 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 1: the guardianship said, look, her family can come and see her. 57 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 1: She was out to dinner with her attorneys and her 58 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 1: niece Alex. Finney shot out to Alex, who's been by 59 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 1: Wendy side throughout this whole thing, loves her aunt. But 60 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:36,359 Speaker 1: they caught Wendy out with Joe Techapoina and talked about 61 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:37,839 Speaker 1: the conservativeship and just kind of update. 62 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 2: Let's take a listen. 63 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 3: What's next is hopefully justice. I mean, it's been so 64 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 3: long and I'm not a guardianship attorney. I'm when this 65 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 3: personal attorney but this process is really despicably slow because 66 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 3: she's in a facility. 67 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 2: I'm when this. 68 00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:55,119 Speaker 3: Wendy, this is We've had conversations yeah over of course 69 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,080 Speaker 3: for six months. She's the saying Wendy Williams that you 70 00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 3: know from PVA. Yeah right, and so person who is 71 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 3: control of her faculties and is a great human being. 72 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 3: And it sickens me. Honestly. This is not even about 73 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 3: a case for me. It's about a cause. And I'm 74 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 3: gonna do everything. 75 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,839 Speaker 2: I just had a birthday and I'm still in guardianship. 76 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 2: If that doesn't say enough, I don't know what does. 77 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 3: Now. 78 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 2: I have a question. 79 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 1: How many other people have reached out to you asking 80 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 1: for your help? 81 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:20,960 Speaker 2: Have you gotten phone calls? 82 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 3: Some people? Oh so many? Right now might focus to 83 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,640 Speaker 3: some Mondy and I'm happy to get her through this, right, 84 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 3: I'll deal with that later. But I will tell you this, 85 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,400 Speaker 3: it is scary, this guardianship process. Once you get in 86 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 3: the vortext of the guardianship proceeding, it's hard to get out. 87 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,119 Speaker 1: Yo joll tag of Peanut talking about he get calls 88 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 1: and support of her. Let me tell you all the 89 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 1: people will want they will run you down about it. 90 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 1: Wendy Williams okay, and can we say in the videos 91 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 1: photos from her birthday dinners and this video here that's 92 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 1: on TMZ's website, Wendy looks amazing. Okay, she's keeping up 93 00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 1: with conversation. She's very like fluid in conversation. She because 94 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 1: I won't I remember when we did we're doing the 95 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: interviews with her. Her guardianship tried to say that basically 96 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 1: she was like almost coached, like there was basically like 97 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 1: a script that Wendy was sticking to and that's the 98 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: only reason why she'd been able to speak out. I'm 99 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 1: watching this video right here, Wendy is just there, chilling, 100 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 1: tracking conversation and jumping in as she needs to. She 101 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 1: looks good, she sounds good. What are we talking about 102 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,480 Speaker 1: here now? Wendy talking about getting back to work. 103 00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:24,360 Speaker 2: I don't know if that. 104 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,719 Speaker 1: Looks like for Wendy in twenty twenty five. I'm thinking definitely, 105 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:29,920 Speaker 1: like you know, podcasts. I don't know if it could 106 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 1: be something daily, just because I feel like that grind 107 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:33,480 Speaker 1: might be a bit much for her. 108 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,080 Speaker 2: Now. You know, she's still you know. 109 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 1: An older woman dealing and you know all the things 110 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:41,279 Speaker 1: with graves to disease, but definitely something from her home 111 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 1: where she's comfortable and she can just kind of go 112 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 1: through her things and talk as she talks, being do 113 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 1: the Wendy Williams thing that she does. I do think 114 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 1: that the world is missing her, though, I think when 115 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 1: you are able also too. Wait, let me just say this. 116 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:58,919 Speaker 1: I also don't know when we talk about Wendy Williams 117 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 1: getting back to work, what Wendy Williams's voice is now, 118 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 1: because me and Charlemagne went to dinner with Wendy Williams 119 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 1: and her niece Alex Finnie, and when we were there, 120 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 1: we were having a conversation and she she randomly came 121 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,720 Speaker 1: out to us and said she felt like she was 122 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:20,839 Speaker 1: going through everything she was going through because of the 123 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 1: way that she had talked about people and dealt with 124 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:26,720 Speaker 1: people throughout her career. She felt like this was her karma. 125 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:30,719 Speaker 1: She felt like she was being made to sit down 126 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:34,480 Speaker 1: and experience these things so that her empathy for people 127 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:36,840 Speaker 1: in the situations that they find themselves in will be different. 128 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:38,040 Speaker 2: Because y'all know Wendy Williams. 129 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 1: I Wndy Williams was cutthroat, okay, cut down, all right, 130 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 1: And I think her just delivering the news and telling 131 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 1: the stories and the things that she has so much 132 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 1: connections to, so many things that are topical right now, 133 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 1: right like you know, Diddy, and there's so much nostalgia 134 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 1: that is coming back around because you know, people were 135 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,040 Speaker 1: having an answer to certain things or you know, just 136 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 1: things of that nature. I think there's definitely space there. 137 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 1: But it didn't seem like at that dinner Wendy Williams 138 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:06,600 Speaker 1: wanted to be the same cut through, drag you for filth, 139 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 1: don't care about nothing near you nor your mother. Okay, 140 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 1: it didn't seem like that. It's who she wanted to 141 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,600 Speaker 1: return back to work being. She actually said it like 142 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:17,200 Speaker 1: her niece was saying, you know, you know, I think 143 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 1: the difference is you've experienced life. And Wendy thought about 144 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:22,159 Speaker 1: it in a bit and she said, yeah, you know, 145 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: I just think things are different now. She said, if 146 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 1: I get a chance to do it all again, I'm 147 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 1: gonna do it a little bit different. So I don't 148 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:31,560 Speaker 1: know what that looks like. What does Wendy Williams with 149 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,280 Speaker 1: a bit of empathy look like. I think she's still 150 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 1: gonna be very honest. I think it's still gonna be like, oh, shoot, 151 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 1: did she just say that? But I do think that 152 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 1: there was a part of Wendy's audience that tuned in 153 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:47,279 Speaker 1: for the reading to filth the taken down through the 154 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 1: mincing of her or non mincing of her words, and 155 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:52,599 Speaker 1: it don't seem like that's what she about to be given. 156 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 1: So that's you know what I mean, That's something to 157 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:58,480 Speaker 1: think about. But yes, there's still very much interest there, 158 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:00,840 Speaker 1: which of course speaks to the work into her career 159 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:05,279 Speaker 1: as far as a lawsuit. The only thing that I 160 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:07,480 Speaker 1: would say, and I would have followed up shout out 161 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:11,240 Speaker 1: to Celia from TMZ that's who conducted this interview. The 162 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 1: only thing that I would have followed up with question 163 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 1: wise for Jio tech Opina is it's like, okay, when 164 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 1: Wendy is free of this conservativeship, it is clear. 165 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 2: And Wendy has said she. 166 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 1: Signed into this conservativeship back in May of twenty twenty two, 167 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 1: so it's been some years now that this has been 168 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 1: going on, because she knew that she did need some 169 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 1: guardrails and she did need some help of some sorts 170 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 1: when it came to like business and organizing her life 171 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 1: and things of that nature. If those things are still 172 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 1: needed today. And a judge deems that and releases her 173 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 1: from certain constraints on the conservativeship, but does it fully 174 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 1: release her? 175 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 2: Are you able to then still file suit? 176 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 1: Because it's like even though Sabrina Morrissey, right, like Sabrina Morrisey, 177 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,119 Speaker 1: we move along, you know, hypothetically speaking, is not Wendy 178 00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 1: Williams conservator anymore, right, But there are still things in 179 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 1: place that need to stay in place as deemed by 180 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 1: a judge hypothetically speaking. 181 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 2: And we don't know if this is going to happen yet. 182 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 1: I'm just thinking I'm just being Devil's advocate, right, But 183 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 1: if this does happen, how does Wendy Williams legal team 184 00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 1: then come and say we are suing you because ABC 185 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:17,960 Speaker 1: and D were set into place when a judge is 186 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 1: deemed that it was needed now whether it was supposed 187 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 1: to be. 188 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 2: Extreme, as extreme as it was or not. 189 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 1: Maybe that's where they lean in lawsuit wise, you know, 190 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 1: and they talk about, you know, the stress and anxiety 191 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,440 Speaker 1: and loneliness and and all these things healthwise, that that 192 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:36,560 Speaker 1: feeling of having to go through what Wendy is alleging, 193 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 1: these extreme circumstances being in this conservativeship and living in 194 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 1: the facility in when she lives is a conversation. But 195 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 1: if a judge is saying, well, no, you know, it 196 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 1: wasn't that she was mistreated or neglected. 197 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 2: She needed the help. 198 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 1: We're just now willing to back up the restraints or 199 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 1: constraints a bit because she's so and proving she's showing 200 00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,800 Speaker 1: that she doesn't need now what she needed then, because 201 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 1: he has also openly talked about dealing with the alcohol 202 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 1: abuse and different things, which is a lot of what 203 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 1: you know, the conservatorship is arguing calls the restraints that 204 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:14,080 Speaker 1: she has. If you guys remember they talked about, you know, 205 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 1: why Wendy Williams ended up on the floor that she's on, 206 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 1: which is like a no memory floor. You can't open 207 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: doors yourself, You can't you know, receive calls in you 208 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 1: got to call out. 209 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:24,440 Speaker 2: They allege that Wendy Williams went to. 210 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 1: The rooftop restaurant in the facility on or around her 211 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 1: birthday and got drunk, knowing that you know, she wasn't 212 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:35,319 Speaker 1: supposed to be having alcohol. This is what they allege 213 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,960 Speaker 1: and because of that, they put her in a situation 214 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 1: where her actions could be monitored more tightly. So I'm 215 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 1: just wondering what Joe Takapina's argument is in between all 216 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 1: of these things, because yes, these things happen, but does 217 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 1: a person then it is it fair for a person 218 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 1: then to be placed in a position where they're made 219 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 1: to feel like the prisoner And maybe that is it? 220 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 1: Not for sure, but we'll have to wait see because 221 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 1: they said the lawsuit is coming. They said it's coming, 222 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 1: but I think first she has to get out of 223 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 1: the conservativeship thing. We gotta figure that out. And I 224 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 1: have not yet gotten an update anymore in anywhere I've yet. 225 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: I've yet to get an additional update from Wendy side 226 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 1: of things or anywhere. So I'll keep you guys supposed 227 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:20,960 Speaker 1: to if something comes up, But as of now, this 228 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:22,680 Speaker 1: is all we got. Our girl got out the house 229 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 1: on her birthday. She was able to go out, eat 230 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 1: fellowship with family, smile lass, she looked amazing while doing it. 231 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:34,199 Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, she still returns 232 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:39,120 Speaker 1: back to that room. 233 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:46,559 Speaker 2: And that is that. That's the issue. Now. 234 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:49,680 Speaker 1: At other show news, as we take a swing on 235 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:52,439 Speaker 1: into some other things, y'all, South Park is going to 236 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 1: be releasing ten new episodes a year.

And I don't 365 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:53,120 Speaker 1: know if it's because he's very self deprecating himself in 366 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 1: his comedy in the way that he goes about comedy, 367 00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 1: but he's also been very very vocal just about like 368 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 1: his mental health struggles, and you know his struggles when 369 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 1: it comes to partners and relationship and all these things. 370 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 1: So I don't know if that's where, like you know, 371 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:09,720 Speaker 1: that cloud of conversation over him comes from. But I 372 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:12,960 Speaker 1: love seeing happy and positive news when it comes to 373 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 1: him because oftentimes, like I feel like, the last report 374 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 1: I saw before this was something about him entering into 375 00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:20,200 Speaker 1: a rehab facility. 376 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 2: It was like toward the end of last year. 377 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,680 Speaker 1: I believe I saw those reports in let me double check, Yeah, 378 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:26,239 Speaker 1: October twenty four, twenty twenty four. 379 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:27,920 Speaker 2: Because other than that, it's been low.
