Bonjour. I am here with Joy Vehar, back from Paris, back from London. How are you? Madame

Janowitz. That's what they were calling Janowitz. Oh, Madame Janowitz.

That's what they were calling me there.

Oh, really? Yeah. Do you get recognized in Europe? No, it was a pleasure. No brassiere. No makeup. Hair, you know, natural. That way I look naturally. Yes. All right. I want to hear all about your trip to Europe. And let me tell you, we did miss you for sure.

But first, I think we have to talk about this show.

We just finished.

Yeah, of course.

It was a about this show. We just finished.

Yeah, of course. It was a most interesting show with J.D. You're on a first initials basis with him.

So J.D. Vance was our guest on the entire show today. And how do you feel like it went?

Well, I think that we, you know, we were actually kind to him, I think.

I thought he was, I have to say, very genial. He came on, I think he came on in good faith. You know, we had that conversation with some of the hosts before, and we've talked about this. Yeah. Often people come here looking to disrupt. Here's my theory about J.D. Vance. That he's running for president. Totally running for president. But before he became Trump's boy. Mm-hmm. Vice president. you know, like all of them are, not just him. I mean, look at

Lindsey Graham. They all have been, the body snatchers got to them. They were much more

open-minded. They did not have a cruel streak. You know, he wrote a book called Hillbilly

Elegy. When he talked about how poor they were, and he was actually a different kind of person. And I said to him during the break, why did you call him America's Hitler? He didn't have time to answer. And I wanted to ask him on the air, but we just ran out of time. So time. But let me finish my theory. Yes. So my point is that I think if he were president, he would go back to being more a kind person, that Trump is the one who's who's not kind. Okay. So is this an endorsement of J.D. Vance? No, because I'm not voting for him anyway, especially if he runs against one of the good Democrats that we have out there. Right. I've never voted for a Republican in my life.

How did he seem compared to how you expected him to be, I guess, is the question. I expected him to not have a sense of humor, and he did have one. I started, I went backstage and started doing the tumulting with him. Yes, you always, you popped in backstage. He was happy to see you. I warmed them up and disarmed them immediately. Here's what I liked. He came on willing to face.
