Transcript

00:00To the battle over the Blake Lively-Justin Baldoni court hearing, both sides are claiming victory.

00:08And we may have a little better understanding now of why that is, but Blake Lively's side,

00:15people close to her, are talking about how this has impacted her and her family.

00:22We know that Justin and his family went on vacation last week. They were in Hawaii,

00:26looking very relaxed. And then Blake and Ryan Reynolds are now on vacation.

00:33And I'm not saying they did this as a response to that, but they certainly, they posted some

00:38photos from their vacation, not clear on where they are, but certainly seeming relaxed, right?

00:44We're okay, too, trying to give off that same, we're not bothered by this vibe.

00:48You know what's really interesting about that? Clearly, this is all PR. I mean,

00:51this is what's going on here on both sides. In a way, it's tough to do it,

00:55because you want to smile. On the other hand, you're alleging that it has crushed me emotionally

01:00in the lawsuit and all of those things. And the smile belies that. And so it's confusing

01:07to people who are trying to reconcile the two things, even though you can, it creates that

01:13confusion. Yeah. So what I'm hearing is that they're on vacation, they needed to get away,

01:18but they're zapped. This has been going on now since the start of the movie, when all this

01:23unfolded and it's still happening right now. That said, Blake has a lot of confidence in the facts.

01:29She feels the facts are on her side and that what Baldoni is bringing in the countersuit

01:34is a sideshow. And she is more than ready for her day in court, whether it be next week

01:39or next year in March, she is prepared. It's not going to happen. There's not going to be a trial,

01:45guys. The court date is March of 2026. And the most absurd thing is this thing yesterday that

01:52happened, that the judge said, we're going to enforce the rules of professional responsibility,

01:56which isn't even a court thing. It's a state bar thing. And we're going to say you can't say

02:00things publicly that prejudice the jury. Right. This judge, which is what which is what Blake

02:05had been requesting. Right. This side had been requesting that. But that's they've been asking

02:11the judge to stop Brian Friedman from saying things that they felt, at least that her side felt

02:16was was prejudicial. A jurors. She worked with The New York Times on that story,

02:23which would have prejudiced the jury. Be everything that comes out of a lawyer's mouth

02:31is not to show the truth. It's to influence the public and possibly influence a jury.

02:37I taught this in law school at several law schools. Well, I taught professional responsibility.

02:42It's a ridiculous rule. Everything is designed to prejudice. Well, that's the way the law.

02:49That's the way these sides feels like they got what they wanted because the judge said,

02:53you must stick to this rule that I know you're saying. And Brian Friedman, Justin's lawyer,

02:59says we won because there's no gag order on me and I'm going to still say what I want to say.

03:03And I don't think you're ever going to find out who won this case at all because it is

03:07never going to go to trial. Hmm.

03:09Scary story from Parker, Arizona. So I'm glad that they're smiling and on vacation,

03:15but honestly, I don't think it's going to last. They have a huge legal battle against

03:20Justin Baldoni and that man, he is coming with receipts. Honestly, I'd like to be

03:26a fly on the wall just to hear their conversation. And honestly, I'm glad the judge.

03:33They that he quashed their gag order and that it didn't work.

03:36Can I interrupt you for a second? That's all fine and good. That's an awesome sculpture.

03:41I knew you were going to point out the bus. No, it's a cross between Julius Caesar and

03:46James Dean. And I like it and I like it with my boyfriend's fathers and he painted it and

03:53he's had it for years. I love it.

04:02Yeah.
