This is an I-Heart podcast.

Guaranteed Human.

Hello, hello, hello, welcome to the naughty but nice show.

I'm your host Rob Shooter.

Every Friday, our friend, Corey Andrew joins us from Instinctsmagizine.com. Corey, are you there? I am here, Rob. Happy Friday. What a week. Luckily, we've got a ton of celebrity gossip to take your mind off all the terrible stuff in the news. We're talking to the news. On Monday, I'm going

to be on the Wendy Williams show. How you doing? I know. So Wendy's back from her hiatus,

and she asked if I'd join her on Monday for some tea, for some gossip, for some naughty but nice

dish. I said yes. So we will be doing a podcast on Monday. Don't worry, you're the priority. We'll get our show done on Monday. And then I think around 10 o'clock, New York time, I'll be on Wendy's. If you want to see what this voice looks like, most of you know. But if you want to say, oh gosh, that sounds terrible. I hope it's not too off-putting, Corey. I'll dress nice. I'll wear something nice. Okay, my friends, what time is it?

It is tea time.

Big exclusive at the top of the show.

Ellen DeGeneres' ratings continue to plummet.

So the final week of 2020 continued to deliver very bad news for Ellen and her talk show, which fell

to season lows. She only had 900,000 viewers. Oh my goodness. So to put this into some perspective

here, during the month of December, she lost about 400,000 viewers. So she started off the month pretty strong.

She seems to have bounced back from all the criticism, the bad press. But then she tested positive

for COVID-19. And then all her shows were reruns. They were not new shows. And that's what

dropped her down. Even worse, December was down

35% from December 2019. So it was already a bad month. And then it got even worse.

Sources are telling me, there is a fear amongst the staff that when Ellen's contract expires

in 2022, she might retire.

She might just be done with it.

What do you think, Corey?
