This is an I-Heart podcast.

Guaranteed Human.

Hello, hello, hello, welcome to the naughty but nice show. I'm your host. Rob Shooter, and it is Wednesday, which means our dear friend. Donnie Meacham joins us. Hey, Donnie, are you there? Hello, lo, lo, it is Wednesday. My favorite day of the week, it's so excited. And I don't know what's going on in September. A lot of celebrities are acting up.

It's the strike.

So they've got nothing to do all day apart from be naughty.

It's marvelous for us.

At first, I was very worried about the strike.

I thought we'd have nothing to write about, to report on, to gossip about.

But actually the opposite.

It's when celebrities are not working, that they go

out drinking, dancing, kissing, yes. It's very good for us. Yes, the strike is terrible. Don't get me

wrong here. I'm not. I'm not saying I'm grateful for that. We're missing out on all our favorite

shows, all the great movies and people also, let's be honest, I'm not earning any money,

so I have a lot of sympathy for the strike we are supporting you, but I've got to admit,

while the strike is going on, these naughty celebrities are getting a bit bored. I guess if you

don't have to get up early in the morning to go to work, imagine that. It doesn't matter what you do for a

living. Imagine tomorrow morning. You didn't have to get up and go to work. I bet tonight you'd

come to Bottos and we'd get a drink. Absolutely. And then you're sitting around going, remember

that time Jimmy Fallon was rude to me? Remember that? I know. We'll get into that later on. There's lots of gossip today about Jimmy. I think in a weird way, Donnie, this podcast is responsible for me losing weight because I've not gone out drinking. When you were in New York, before the podcast, when we did the radio show, I think it was three in the afternoon. You'd finish editing it and and then we'd meet at four o'clock for a drink, because I didn't have to get up till really noon the next day, but now, because we're up so early doing this show, and I'm not complaining I love doing this show, it's really changed my lifestyle, and I think that's what's going on with the strike. Actors are not getting up in the morning to do their jobs,

so they're all out being naughty.

Okay, let's jump into the show, so we've got a lot to get to.

What time is it, my friends?
