Summary of conversation [Spoiler (click to open)]
[Despite titles on video clips, it’s pretty tame. They don’t talk ~specifics about politics, only generalities and the shifting culture of stand up comedy.]
Whoopi says this week is Thanksgiving! Wonders what it was like [for TA] growing up around a lot of strong women. TA said they were great cooks, Canadian, German, Scottish. Cookbook was -try to keep it down-. Tells story about one drinking Sherry while cooking, doing drunk stuff with food. Another funny story about their Manger scene. Joy mentions their stand up comedy in the 1980s, TA says Jay Leno says Hi to Joy. They talk about her old act. TA talks about growing up with Lenny Bruce, Richard Pryor. Doesn’t like the thought police, expands on that premise, doesn’t say anything specific, but feels it’s alarming for comedians. Says his routine is mostly about family, kids, growing up, not really politics. Says his family regardless of party always hated the government -who’s going to pay for it-, says he can do some things in one city (ex. Miami) and get laughs but can’t do the same in another city (ex. Redding PA). When he does political stuff, it’s more perspective versus specifics. TA and Joy bring up Blazing Saddles, that it’s not p.c.
Meghan says blah blah. TA talks about his character premise. TA says they didn’t want to make fun of religion, family, only celebrate what’s good about family, but be provocative. The show started with Obama, enjoyed poking a little fun because he (Obama) had a good sense of humor. They were geared up to poke fun at Hillary, and then [shocker!], so they had to switch gears. Says they poke fun at both sides. TA says he met MyDad™ and that he was funny. Talks about an article (from Wharton School) that highlighted the best parts of conservatives and the best parts of liberals. Feels we’ve lost ability to compromise. Says his brother is liberal, they both read it, came away thinking they're the opposite of what they thought they identified with, gave them a different perspective. Says the show tries to balance it. Whoopi asks the last time he was there. TA said he and Martin Short did The View together ages ago, sat on a wooden couch, thought he broke his coccyx, hyuck hyuck.
Hot Topic Bloomberg

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cr_8XaKEGTw
Now it’s official, Bloomberg announced with a media blitz. Warren and Sanders have thoughts. Biden says c’mon in, I welcome you. Whoopi says if you have good ideas, then let everyone hear what you have to say. Doesn’t want to hear it through commercials, wants to hear it personally. Joy covers his background, fiscal conservative, socially liberal, details his platform. He’s a self-made billionaire, but T45 is a faker, and T45 bankrupted a casino, who does that. Says he will have a problem with stop and frisk even tho he at least apologized when T45 never does ever. Abby says he has a charisma problem. But she figures someone has been crunching numbers, so somebody must think he can do this, she thinks he would beat T45. Says he’s more pragmatic, if you listen to him, he sounds like the adult in the room. Sunny feels this is a referendum on Biden. Meghan says blah blah.
Joy likes that he’s self-financing because that means he’s not beholden. Sunny brings up Citizens United, if you’re upset about what’s happening, then you have to change the laws. Abby says it’s unconventional but T45 is unprecedented, the goal is to get T45 out of office.
Meghan occasionally makes some valid points, but her delivery is always on Level 7 Temper Tantrum mode; someone needs to sit her down and coach her on basic communication skills, good lord.
Hot Topic Lindsey Graham is Cuckoo

Plays clip. Graham dismisses an Iraq Vet trying to reasonably speak to him. Joy mocks why LG acted that way. Abby feels he’s savvy enough to at least let the vet finish what he was saying, doesn’t like people losing their humanity. T45 won’t be in office forever regardless, she’s baffled why people have sold out [paraphrasing, not her exact words]. Joy says he loves the veterans but then they ask a question and it’s -who cares. Meghan says blah blah. Sunny mentions LG is a long time friend of Biden, now he’s trying to drum up investigation into Hunter. Whoopi talks about Nunes. Wonders why it wasn’t already out there. If you have info, then whip it out (audience lols @ phrasing). What are you hiding /rhetorical. Sunny mentions Nunes has his own problems. Whoopi says people should be treated like adults. Joy says LG is willing to destroy reputations with malice based on T45 in WH. Meghan says blah blah. Whoopi is weirdly aggressive. Show what you have, or stop hinting at it.

Sacha Baron Cohen gave a speech at Anti-Defamation League event, denounces Fb and other social media. Plays clip. If Fb were around in 1930s, then they would’ve allowed Htlr to run adds on the Final Solution. Joy says Fb would give Htlr his own fan page. Talks correlation that media made it ok when they didn’t think [whoever] was a bad idea, then they learned they were a bad idea, so oops too late. Abby talks free speech. Thinks Htlr comparison is extreme. [No it is not. Crack a history book and look at the actions and timeline.] Joy and Sunny talk First Amendment. Feels it’s a slippery slope. Fb is a publisher, it’s up to Americans to fact check [good luck, the average American is politically ambivalent and lazy]. Whoopi tries to give Meghan time, she then whines that they’re out of time. So Joy speaks. Then Meghan interrupts Joy to say blah blah. Whoopi says it requires everyone to pay attention.
Hot Topic Is Your Man Friends With a Potential Competitor

Photo of Jordin Sparks husband in booth at restaurant with a female hs friend. Her fan commenters dragged it. Jordin said calm down. She’s fine with it, not worried. Panel discusses. Sunny cites statistics about men who cheat and who they cheat with. Sunny’s looks are funny. Whoopi pokes fun at Sunny’s -surveys-. Joy says it’s between Jordin, her husband, and the friend. Abby wonders why everyone has an opinion on other people’s life. Whoopi defends Jordin, has more faith in her and her husband. Joy says the wife is always the last to know. Sunny laughs there is probably a statistic about that, too.
Ontd do you care if your s/o is pals with a ~friend?
