Hello, hello, hello, welcome to the Lord.

You're a nice show.

It is Thursday, my favorite day of the week, actually.

And joining us on Thursday is my friend Mark Lippa Mark, are you there?

Hey, Rob.

Hello, darling. I actually, while I was introducing you, figure out, did I just imply you're my favorite of the week, which I absolutely did not mean to do?

You're one of my favorites. But I do enjoy a Thursday. How do you feel about a Thursday, Mark?

Well, it's funny. Thursday happens to be my favorite day of the week too. So I think it's because of you, though.

Oh, O. C. Look how charming you are. There's something about Thursdays, particularly here in New York.

Obviously, we're all shut down at the moment, but the best night of the week to go out in New York was always a Thursday night. I know it sounds crazy, but on the weekend, it's sort of a little bit raucus. So you don't really want to go out on a Friday or a Saturday night in New York. Thursday's the last night of the week that New Yorkers, people that actually live here, go out. Isn't that true, Mark? It's the best night. It's calm, but it's fun. And you have, you know, the weekends ahead still. Yes. You can get through Friday, hungover, so people go out on Thursday. Like, on Mondays, I still have to get through Tuesday, Wednesday. But on a Thursday, I can sort of like pretend to work on a Friday and not do anything. Well, there you go. When the city opens back up, come in. Let's all go out on a Thursday night. Do you know what time it is, Mark? It is tea time. Exclusive right at the top of the show. Claire Crawley is having a meltdown. She's been abandoned by the producers of the Bachelorette. So after Claire put out a very

emotional call for help, we talked about it on the show, she got no response from the Bachelorette

or anybody at the show. Sources tell me the following, Mark. See if this rings true for you. You've

worked on TV. Sources say, Claire got a huge response from her fans after she put out the cry for help,

but nothing from the show. It's very difficult for reality stars to move on after the show is over.

All the producers, the marketing people, the PR people, they all move on to the next cast.

They're very, very busy.

So, professionals that once treated Claire, like she was their best friend while she was on the show,

now don't really have time for her.

They're not being cruel, I'm not dishing them here.

It's a job.
