Do you remember Brooke Baldwin of CNN? Oh, yeah
blast from the past
Yes. Okay. So for years many many years. I don't know well over a decade. She was on cnn
It was uh from 2008 to 2021. She was there. She's 47 now
She got fired by jeff zucker
She wrote a whole thing in vanity fair about it. Um, or at least that was picked up by vanity fair
She might have been on her sub stack, but she was
She she felt it was very unceremoniously
Um dismissed from cnn a place that she'd worked for, you know, 13 years
She didn't think she deserved that kind of an exit
But jeff zucker is not a nice guy and didn't treat her well according to her. Um
Then she went on she hosted um some show on netflix called the trust in 2024. I don't know
I think it might have been sort of like the mole. I'm not sure what it was, but
It was short-lived. It looked interesting, but I was glad to see her land on her feet
She's going a different way
um at the moment
she's writing on her sub stack and
she's writing about
All the casual sex she's been having
Come on, okay, of course you saved this for us for our appearance on the show. Let's weigh in
Why should this hour be any different from any other?
And um
She wants you to know
That uh, well, let me just
Cue it up with a clip from her latest posting because she went to instagram after she did the post on her sub stack
And this is how that looked and sounded
It's not 40 b. Good morning
I just meditated and I feel so clear
And coming out of that I just wanted to say a few things
About what I wrote about this weekend and about
All of the people i've been hearing from which has told me a couple of things clear
from a lot of the
men who are writing me
that first of all a lot of y'all
Shoot your shot trying to shoot your shot. God bless you. Um, that wasn't the point of the piece
but a lot of you
Shared with me that you appreciated how open I was
About talking about myself like that and it made me realize
that a lot of us
women
Maybe don't feel as emboldened empowered
As open in our bodies to the women who I know that read the piece
That are going through their own journeys of awakening
And I mean that in all the ways so am I
Do we ever really stop?
But I feel like i've been on a huge huge journey these last few years and i'm really grateful for it
Um, I see you. I wanted to write about it as it was all related to my work and my mission
and
God and my body. It's all connected. Okay, that's my ted talk for the morning
Okay, her work and her mission
include banging four men in a month one of whom
From her piece one of I mean her her written piece
One of whom says he flew in just to take her to dinner and spends his days working to save democracy one congressional district at a time
Yeah, she doesn't say who it is. Where's smug again today?
Outrageous perfect setup
Just kidding. Just kidding
uh, man, two
One used to run a country
Man, three one is just hot
Man, four not described at all, which is that's tougher for that guy
She says some of the men now subscribe to her newsletter. Hi fellas, so they're all reading about each other
and and brooke baldwin's
journey
Of awakening. I mean the self-help talk the journeys of awakening. I see you
the her gratitude
Um the the music like the weird spa music from like, I don't know india
The overly therapized talk in there, you know, you can tell she spent a lot of years in therapy
the no makeup
You know my work and my mission. It was like I okay this
Let me just give you a look at what brooke baldwin was was doing like a couple of years ago
This is not ancient history. She used to be a serious news anchor. Yeah
This is newtown connecticut and this is the week the funerals begin in fact
One is beginning just across the street. This is the only undertaker in this town of some 27 000 people
A son from her father's brief marriage with an american woman anne whom he met while studying in the united states
Barack and alma met for the very first time in person back
You get the idea. She used to be a serious news anchor and not only that she used to really object
To any sort of bawdy talk look what she did to poor clay travis
Uh who said I believe in the first amendment and boobs sat 40
I'm a first amendment absolutist. I believe in only two things completely the first amendment and boobs
And so once they made the decision that they were not going to say you believe in the first
related commentary
I just want to make sure I heard you correctly as a woman anchoring the show
Did you say what did you say you believe in the first amendment and b-double-o-b-s?
boobs two things that have only
Down in this entire country's history the first amendment and boobs. So those are the only two things I believe in absolutely in the country
Jamel, why are you sitting here?
Did you notice that he went straight to that
Yeah, you're you're absolutely right. I did go. Why would you even say that live on national television and with a female host?
I say it live on the radio all the time because it's true. And that's what I do
Because I like boobs and the first amendment which is exactly what I said
I'm done even i'm sorry to have her anatomy brought up to have anyone's anatomy brought up in this
This is done. This is conversation over yanking mics. Uh,
Bye
See ya
It's a great moment of journalism right there
It's nice to hear a story every once in a while about uh, some journalist who gets knocked down
Uh, and then stays down and just puts their knees behind their ears
For the rest of their
Lives, but it seems like it's working out for us. I don't know
Yeah, I mean word to the wise anybody out there in the dating scene if you happen to meet someone who talks
Incessantly about their inner peace
They have none of it
Totally true, you know, it's pretty good beware
yeah, I just the only thing I could think when I was watching her video was this seems an awful lot like the last episode
Of mad men when john ham goes off to california and he's becoming one with himself at some like yoga
Retreat center and then the whole series ends after that
yeah, well, I would say I mean she can do what she wants and whatever but
I think
She's been in a very toxic industry for a long long time I can relate
She had a divorce. Okay, that can be tough
Um, she tried that one show that didn't work out, but that that was a good swing and a miss
Um, it's fine. It was it was a good swing
And I don't think this is the way out of the funk brooke
I do not think this is the way I actually think if that continues you're only going to dig a deeper hole for yourself and
You deserve better. That's my own two cents on it unasked for unsolicited
But from the heart one newswoman to another
