Well, that didn’t take long. New ‘60 Minutes’ EP Nick Bilton fired Scott Pelley after Monday morning’s staff meeting that he says Pelley “hijacked” to disparage him.

We just wrapped our Love Island USA watch party and boy do we have thoughts! We gathered our group straight to the mics to first discuss the unnecessary amount of French kissing that lasted throughout the entire episode. And then there were those uncomfortable sex questions, the constant doors , the bombshell additions and the silly, highly produced opening to start season 8 off with a bang.

Jenny Mollen is doing damage control following a controversial post showing her intertwined with her 12-year-old son on the bed, with her in-between his legs; the original caption saying the “eldest son is the most toxic relationship of your life.” While Mollen took the caption down, her essay she posted days ago is making headlines as well. Mollen is in the middle of divorcing actor Jason Biggs of “American Pie” fame and penned an essay with the first line reading: “Call me old-fashioned, but I only want my sons to marry women with dead mothers” and ending with “I pray that at least one of them is gay.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We introduce you to the islanders competing for love on Season 8, premiering tonight on Peacock. From a DJ and model to a Paralympian medalist to a daughter of an NBA player, many of these 20 somethings will soon become household names and online fodder for the next six weeks. One contestant even drew the ire from his town’s mayor, clearly upset that he quit his job as police officer to be on the reality show.

Jury selection is underway for 17-year-old Karmelo Anthony who is facing life in prison for the stabbing death of 17-year-old Austin Metcalf at a track meet in Texas last year. Extra security is in place at the courthouse and there is a strict electronic gag for members of the media given all the racial tensions that have erupted in the aftermath of the murder. Anthony is black, Metcalf was white, and a significant amount of misinformation has circulated online that resulted in death threats for both the victim’s and the defendant’s families over the past several months.

We saw both “Backrooms” and “Obsession” over the past two weekends and were blown away by the not only the movies themselves, but by just how many other people turned out to see them. “Obsession” continues to rise in its third week, a never before seen phenomenon. While “Backrooms” blew away the competition, bringing in a record breaking box office number by the youngest director in movie history. Both films cost very little to make, and are likely to change the way we make movies going forward. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Here we go again, but this time, an islander who used the n-word on newly resurfaced social media posts is being removed before we even meet her. Two videos from 25-year-old Vasana Montgomery have been circulated where she is seen saying the n-word playing a video game and rapping to a song in the car. Last season, it was Yulissa Escobar who was kicked off after the first episode when videos of her using the racial slur were discovered. Later, Cierra Ortega was kicked off for videos showing her using an Asian slur. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In another jaw dropping Truth Social post, President Trump has announced that he is canceling the concert series after nearly all of the musical acts dropped out. Instead, he says the man who gets larger audiences than Elvis in his prime will hold a rally… yes, President Trump is referring to himself. Trump went on in a second post to also say he is canceling the Kennedy Center renovations after a judge ruled his name must be removed from the building.

This was an eye opening conversation about what some men privately think about their wives and their relationships. It came to us from a Buzzfeed article that listed secret complaints men have about their women, but to us, it sounded more like issues these men have with communication! Men, it’s ok to tell us how you feel.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Timing is apparently everything when it comes to “successful sex” according to a sleep expert and psychologist who has been studying hormone levels for more than 2 decades. This researcher says our hormones are literally the opposite of what we need for good sex at the time MOST couples have sex: right before bed. We go over when the best time to connect is for both women and men, and what to do if he’s a night owl and she’s a morning person. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
How would this go over in YOUR relationship: “Hey honey, I’d like to spend my vacation alone this year.” It’s a growing trend among couples in loving relationships, many saying it can actually make you a better partner. You end up missing each other when you’re away and appreciating one another when you come back! Experts do warn however, there is a fine line between healthy independence and avoidance and there are several questions you should ask yourself before deciding to travel solo.

It’s a heinous story that shocked the New York community, 34-year-old Erin Merdy drowned her 7, 4 and 3 month old children in the Atlantic Ocean. Merdy left their bodies along the Coney Island shoreline where it took authorities hours to find them. A judge showed leniency to Merdy, going against prosecutors who wanted her sentenced to life without parole. Once you hear how her life turned upside down, from a young woman with hopes of a health care career to a hopeless single mother suffering from postpartum depression, his lesser sentence may be more understandable.

A federal judge has ruled against the Trump administration, ordering officials to remove Trump’s name from the building within two weeks. The administration must also get rid of all online references to the “Trump Kennedy Center.” The judge also ruled that while the center may move ahead with renovations, it must later decide whether or not to close down the center after the board “more fully considered the impact.” See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
A judge gave 52-year-old Shannon O’Connor the maximum sentence possible after the California mom was found guilty of more than 4 dozen felony counts. O’Connor cried openly in court as victims and their parents stepped forward to describe the lasting trauma she caused for plying teens with drinks and egging on non-consensual sex in her home. O’Connor claims she held alcohol fueled parties to help her 15-year-old son’s social life, but prosecutors say she is now a sexual predator, convicted felon and a registered sex offender.

President Trump may soon be on a brand new $250 dollar bill, all in honor of our nation’s 250th anniversary. The issue with this plan, it’s against federal law. And to be honest, we didn’t think the administration was serious about moving forward with the plan until today’s press conference with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. No living president can appear on currency, unless Congress passes legislation authorizing a special “Trump” bill.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The concert series announced to celebrate America’s 250th anniversary is being widely mocked online. All of the artists on the list haven’t had a hit song in decades, and to make matters worse, at least three of the named acts have already announced they will now, NOT be performing. The theme of the concert series is “I Love the ‘90s” but there isn’t much love going around for what many are calling a politically charged event. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

New Jersey congressman, 57-year-old Tom Kean Jr. is up for reelection this year, but neither his constituents, nor his colleagues have laid eyes on him since early March. His staff and father, former New Jersey Governor Tom Kean Sr., have only referenced that the congressman is “addressing a personal health matter.” Just last week, a local New Jersey reporter said he spoke to the Congressman by phone, where Kean confirmed he is still running for re-election. Kean released a statement in mid April saying he expects to return to a full schedule and be at 100 percent, but in the meantime his whereabouts and condition remain a mystery.

The President is heading back to Walter Reed Medical Center for his third examination since taking office. Recent media headlines have pointed to Trump’s swollen ankles, bruised hands, and frequent Oval Office “naps” that the White House has described as “long blinks.” As Trump gets ready to turn 80 next month, he has been posting odd, self created headlines claiming he’s actually getting younger.
