AI GeneratedThe speaker criticizes Meghan Markle for receiving a Daytime Emmy nomination for her Netflix show, \"With Love, Meghan.\" He mocks the show's superficial content and \"elevated\" lifestyle tips, argues that the nomination reflects the decline of Hollywood's award systems, and highlights the show's poor critical reception and eventual cancellation.
I'm sure you've been recognized with multiple awards and honored by the Emmys many times for
your outstanding program, just like Meghan Markle. If not, she's your hashtag goals, perhaps.
She has been honored, just today we find out, by the Emmys with a daytime Emmy nod
for that hideous Netflix show she did, With Love, Meghan. It's amazing to me.
Quite possibly the actual worst product to hit television over the past five years.
Now, she has managed to get an Emmy, and here is a nomination. Here's just a reminder of
some of how that program looked, and then I'll give you some of the reviews that it received.
Watch. I've always loved taking something pretty ordinary and elevating it,
surprising people with moments that let them know I was really thinking of them.
What? This is probably one of the most glamorous moments of my life.
I'm going to share some little tips and tricks. I see what color I gravitate to,
and everything goes from there, and how you incorporate these practices every day.
That's what you want. You want that shape and texture.
This is about connecting with friends. I love that we're doing this together for the first time,
making new friends. That is so good. We're family now. I'm just learning.
We're not in the pursuit of perfection.
Focus all up. We're in the pursuit of joy. Love is in the details.
I forgot just how cringy it was. You have to elevate everything. You can elevate your peanuts
and your pretzels by taking them from the store-bought bag and transferring them into
a cellophane bag. That's an elevation, just in case you didn't know that, Adam Carolla,
living under a rock out there in California.
This is one of the most glamorous moments of my life. Sure, that's how my friends talk to me,
too, when they come over. They're always telling me how glamorous everything is when they're
hanging out with me. I just want to incorporate these tricks into your everyday as she prances
around in a beekeeper's suit. I know if I ever came over to Adam Carolla's for a drink, we would
don our little beekeeping hats and we would go check in with your bees.
Look, Megan, I don't call myself a hero, but one time I did take smoked almonds from the canister
and I put them in a bowl and I was elevated because I believe in freedom and smoked almonds
and every day is about joy for me. Another time I took some Chex Mix and I put it in another
bowl that was bigger. That was a pretty big day for me. Then I took some Fiesta Mix once. Actually,
I stole the packets from a commercial flight, but when I got home, I emptied them into a different
bowl. I understand that feeling of exhilaration, the feeling of coming alive when you take a
dry trail mix and dump it into an ashtray and then consume it.
As long as Netflix is there, it's next level. It is elevated. She talks about connecting with
friends and what we saw in that actual terrible show was that they were all terrified of her.
She didn't know any of them. She would go on about how well she knew people and then
she'd be like, where do you live again? This all led to a long parody that Maureen Callahan and I
did of With Love, Megan, that is available on YouTube if you type in With Love. Did we call
or we called ours? **** off, Megan. I can't remember. In any event, here's a bit from
our trailer, our take on her, on her now Emmy nominated show, Adam.
It's important to me to stay relatable.
I love to elevate a guest's visit.
Microwave popcorn. You plop it right in there. It's so simple. Only the lazy people don't do
this. Put it in a paper bag. Here we go. It's right behind you. Oh my God. You did it.
We're going to put it in one of these special cellophane bags.
It's okay. These aren't, it's not expensive like your clothes are. Look at how fun that is.
These are amazing and you're going to absolutely love them.
This we're just going to put into a different bag.
They're spectacular. And then I just, and then I just dump them.
Just like that. Where are you getting all these like mini brainstorms? I'm so impressed.
Maybe in the next wave of our friendship, I'll try to explain it to you.
Be a founder to understand. Here were some of the reviews, Adam, of this show that's now been
Emmy nominated. First of all, it had a 38% score on Rotten Tomatoes. The Rotten Tomatoes critics
consensus called it insistently pleasant, but ultimately sterile. Vulture, an utterly deranged,
bizarro world voyage into the center of nothing. Season two, The Times of London,
occupies the sweet spot where irrelevant meets intolerable. The Telegraph, a two-star review,
dubbing her the Montecito Marie Antoinette, citing a production built impromptu flower
mart. Sure, Megan. Here was one that was slightly better from The Guardian,
which also gave it two stars, calling it so painfully contrived that it's genuinely
fascinating. Now they're trying to spin this as though when it got cancelled,
as though that was always intended. In a joint statement that Netflix put out, it was always
intended that Megan will continue growing the brand and taking it into its next chapter
independently. Reed, it got cancelled. It only had one season, not two. They filmed all the
episodes at the same time and broke them into two parts. And they tried to spin that to us as a
renewal. It was nothing of the kind. And now clearly she's got, I guess, enough juice left in
the can to get an Emmy nomination out of this, Adam, which is meaningless, but right on brand for
Well, remember when Obama got the Peace Prize before he even entered the office?
This is kind of what the elites do, and this is why the Oscars are worthless and nobody watches
any more Emmys. All these sort of plaques, honors, and prizes, they just kind of go
one direction. And it does become a popularity contest or some sort of little kitschy club
and all of a sudden you're back in high school again. So they basically took their awards and
they undervalued them like some sort of foreign currency. When a banana dictator takes over,
the peso or the mark or whatever it is in whatever country, when Fidel Castro takes over,
it just bottoms out and they just keep printing new money. That's what's happened to the Emmys
and the Oscars. Nobody gives a ---- anymore because they just hand them out to their friends.
The Obamas have a production deal. They know anything about producing anything other than
homes, essentially. So I don't know. I think it's just one more step closer to the grave
for Hollywood and awards and the old school. The Oscars used to be a big deal. It was a big deal
if you got an Oscar. It was appointment viewing, and now no one cares anymore.

For the first time since World War II, our national debt has exceeded the gross domestic product.
America's reckless government spending keeps catching up with us. Higher inflation,
higher prices, higher cost of living expenses, and higher interest payments on the national debt.
Every dollar Washington spends on interest is a dollar it has to tax, borrow, or print.
