| 0:23.3 | All right. It is Tuesday. April 28th. I am here with mother-to-be, Alyssa Farah Griffin. |
| 0:29.6 | Why am I cursed with outbursts about my pregnancy on the show? |
| 0:39.3 | I think you'd be through it, but no. |
| 0:40.9 | So this is yet again, social faux pas about your pregnancy on the view. |
| 0:47.3 | So for people who didn't see the show today, explain what happened. |
| 0:49.7 | We had Brenda Song on who absolutely love from, I mean, from many things. |
| 0:53.0 | She's delightful. |
| 0:53.8 | Running Point is great, but I love her from Disney Channel, just to be honest. |
| 1:12.5 | But she's a mom of a five-year-old. And I want to say like a three-year-old or something. And Joy, is like, well, do you have any advice for mother to be Alyssa? And I'm like, Joy, I had the baby almost three months ago. Like this, there's a whole human that's alive and in my life. We have like eight weeks of co-hosts. |
| 1:13.8 | Literally. |
| 1:14.1 | Yeah. So good. She also told me before I walked out, she's like, interesting dress, are you going to a bar mitzvah? I was like, you know, I'll take it. I love this dress. Yeah, I like it too. Very much. And it hides the baby very well. Being roasted by joy is, you know, intentionally or unintentionally is an honor for sure. But her argument, well, we have a few pregnant women on staff, but she says until she sees the baby in person and like holds him, She's not going to believe that baby Justin is real. |
| 2:01.5 | Nobody loves a baby more than Joy Baehard. Which is kind of surprising in a weird way. She does. She loves them. She loves how cute they are. She wants to inhale them. She's very... So, and then I'm weirdly the opposite. Until I had my own baby, I kind of thought they all looked like little old men. Now I see mine and I joke to Justin. |
| 2:04.2 | I'm like, if the baby's missing, it's because I literally just inhaled him. |
| 2:01.4 | Like, baby. I kind of thought they all looked like little old men. Now I see mine and I joke to Justin. |
| 2:17.3 | I'm like, if the baby's missing, it's because I literally just inhaled him. Like, baby Justin got inhaled. Like, he's missing now. I don't think I ever held a baby until I had my own really. Like it was not something I, I, I don't believe, changed a diaper until, and now he's like the diaper king of Westchester County. I was pretty good with the diaper. |
| 2:18.4 | Yeah. |
| 2:18.7 | But men take a lot of pride in it, I think, like how quickly they can do it. Yeah, yeah. The swaddling I wasn't great at. But you know, you grew out of it quick. Burping also Justin's shockingly good at. That's like his real, he really gets into it. Yeah. Yeah. All right. We had an amazing show today. We also, speaking of icons, Lafar Burton was here. I mean, is there anyone more like compelling or charming or, I mean, just. I hope audio didn't catch me singing along to the reading rainbow song when we played it. But he was my childhood. Mine too. It's just unbelievable. And I'm a huge Star Trek fan too. So really continued into my adulthood for a long way. And anytime I see him and Whoopi together, I just love that so much. Totally. And it's cool to see how much the audience, like how excited they were. Because it was we had a really young audience today. But it shows how he just spans generations. Yeah, you could be any age and he can mean something to you, |
| 3:11.7 | from roots to reading Rainbow. All right, well, let's dive in because I haven't gotten a chance to talk to you about this White House correspondence dinner. I want to be, I want to give you |
