0:00.0 | So you beautiful bastards. Hope you have been a fantastic Monday. Welcome back to the Philip |
0:04.0 | DeFranco Show and let's just jump into it. And the first thing we're going to talk about today |
0:07.3 | is a story that's kind of rough to cover. For those possibly sensitive to this or struggling with |
0:11.7 | this, the first story does involve the discussion of eating disorders. And the reason I say that |
0:15.5 | is this is the story and the debate and then the controversy around Shane Dawson's newest video called The Return of Eugenia Cooney. And for those I don't know, Eugenia is a YouTuber in personality |
0:24.7 | who was the subject of a lot of public speculation and concern based on her weight. |
0:27.9 | Right, and as Shane's video points out, when she started on YouTube in 2013, she was always thin, |

1:13.5 | so I'm gonna be kind of trying to just squish this down. |
1:15.7 | In the video, it appears that Eugenia is doing far, far better. |
1:18.7 | Shane goes to her house, |
1:19.7 | her lawyer appears to be with her at the house |
1:21.6 | during the interview. |
1:22.4 | Eugenia gives Shane kind of a tour of the house and they dive into a conversation about her journey. During this, there's this notable moment that we're gonna come back to where Shane asks Eugenia if her friends were there for her behind the scenes. |
