Why did Candace Owens take a day off and what did she share about her nesting phase?

Candace Owens 1:12
Like there was nothing more important to me than having the time to organize color coded my son's closets, my multiple son's closets. And that's what I did. And I think this is called a nesting phase of pregnancy. I actually have never had it before. A lot of women describe it. They get on their hands and their knees and they start scrubbing right before they go into labor or something. And I just really felt that nothing was more important than me organizing. And so I took a day off to organize those closets. They look fantastic. I will say this has the only thing that's previously happened that's been remotely even close to that was when I had my first child. I had this sense of dread that my husband was going to die. It was totally crazy, like leading up to labor.

And I did not want him to leave the house. I basically became I was just his captor. It was very scary. And one morning I woke up and he had left the house. It was when we were living in D.C. because he went to go for a run. And I just was boohoo crying on the bed when he came home. And I was just like, what? Where'd you go? You could have died. You could have been eaten by a wild boar. He was like, this is D.C. There are no wild boars. But I was crying hysterically. I don't know. I just I just thought that he was going to die no matter anywhere he went. And that's my sister went through it, too. So I know that it's happened to other women where you essentially just make your husband stay really close to you and joined at your hip. So I was going through one of those crazy spells.

This time I did not die. capture my husband and leave him in a room, but I did have to do some cleaning. So that's the truth. Anyways, what did I miss? Well, you guys were tagging me in some breaking news that Blake Lively has somehow made Time Magazine's list for the 100 most influential people in 2025. Here is the headline.

Why is Blake Lively on TIME's 2025 Most Influential People list?

Candace Owens 2:55
In Time Magazine, there's a write-up and she is described as a risk taker. You can see in the bottom there, it says by Sherilyn Ifill. Now, oddly, what's very strange about this, this placement in the 2025 Time Most Influential list, is that to justify this placement, they reached out to that woman, Sherilyn. She used to work for the NAACP. And the reason why she's made this list is because of a financial contribution that Blake and her husband made to the NAACP back in 2019. I'm not kidding. Right. So back during that time frame, Sherilyn Ifill served as the seventh president and director counsel of the NAACP Legal Defense Fund. So we're talking money. OK. And here is what she had to say about Blake.

According to that time write up, she said, quote, I don't know the Blake Lively of the red carpet or the Met Gala. I never watched Gossip Girl. Blake Lively, I know, is a philanthropist and a student of our country's most intractable problems. She and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, reached out in 2019 to make a contribution to the NAACP Legal Defense Fund. I had been getting a few of these calls as our work fighting against voter suppression and police brutality was receiving national attention. I'm always curious about the kind of research that famous people do before they make that cold call to offer their support. The ones that I have remained in a relationship with are those who, like Blake, really did their homework.
