What are the dynamics of Maury Povich and Connie Chung's relationship?
Welcome to Pablo Torre Finds Out. I am Pablo Torre, and today we're going to find out what this sound is.
Why are you being so nice? You haven't been nice all week. Well, neither have you.
Right after this ad. Is it possible that Connie gets here late but then leaves later? Absolutely. So I do want to clarify for the audience what's happening here is that we're going to get one period of just you Maury Povich talking shit about Connie Chung.
No problem.
And then at some point, you're going to get out of here. Right. Because I have my podcast to do.
I know. On par with Maury Povich. Because you're a media magnate. I mean, I'm going to do the same thing you do when you substitute on PTI, you know? I got the sign right here. On par with Maury Poach on YouTube, Apple, Spotify, all of your social media platforms.
How dare you? How dare you throw shade at my unrepentant promotion of this show on every possible platform? Wow.
In fact, I was shocked the other day. When Will Bond wasn't there, and so you're always Tony's partner. That's right. And then you didn't show up.
I was not there.
It must have been a very important place you were.
I was traveling somewhere and was very heartbroken to not be Tony Kornheiser's emotional support animal. Right. That's something I really do value the exclusivity of, the intimacy of that relationship. You don't go on with Wilbon mostly. Wilbon won't have me. Maybe you can put a word in.
No, he wants the other guy.
He wants Frank Isola. He wants Frankie Ice. He's a different kink. His thing is a different thing.
How do Maury and Connie balance their careers and personal lives?
But this thing, by the way, this thing, you have to help me explain to the audience how long I've been trying to put this summit together. Starting in the spring, maybe. Last year. Yeah. I mean, literally the first time you came on the show, I was like, what if we get... Wait a second. We've never appeared together on your show? No, no, no. You, me, and your better half. Yeah. The three of us have not done this. No. And you came on the show.
Connie's been on your show. I've been on your show. It's the fact that you would want us together. Very brave. Wow. I've been warned against it. It's not. I mean, she's going to show up here and I will be clueless as to what's going to come out of her mouth. And quite frankly, I mean, I'll tell you, I'll even tell her when she, we are in the we don't like each other stage right now. So far that checks out based on? Something's going on. I don't know. Maybe it's in the water. But, you know, we've been married for over 40 years. We love each other to death. But quite frankly, there are times we do not like each other. And I think this is one of those times. This podcast is one of those times. And when she comes on, you'll understand it.
She pays me much, just grief, a lot of grief.
I feel like that general observation is most substantiated by the fact that this chair is empty right now.
I know. I mean, I'm looking at the empty chair, and quite frankly, it looks good.
I'll tell her when she comes in that we've been discussing how we don't like each other these days.
And I'm going to immediately turn on you and take her side as you're aware of the dynamic that's going to happen here.
I mean, yeah.
I'm going to abandon you immediately.
There's a time in the life of a couple where you just don't know anything. how to handle it, you know, you're kind of walking on eggshells.
I can go sign this personally. Right, you know that? You know, but what I relate to and part of, again, my genuine love for your love, such as it is, is that you guys are both incredibly individually accomplished, busy people with trajectories that I know based on both the book that Connie read, which you talked about the last time she was here, and also from my friendship with you, such as the time we beat Nick Cannon in spades together recently. Boy, was that an overwhelming victory.
I mean, not close. Undefeated. I haven't played spades in 50 years, maybe 60.
We got to pull these out.
What insights do they share about the challenges of being in the media industry?
Because y'all beat the draws off us. Oh, my God.
Oh, my Lord. Look at that. Congratulations, Pablo.
