What opening messages and personal stories does Megyn Kelly share with the Atlanta crowd?

Megyn Kelly 0:00
Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show, live on Sirius XM Channel 111 every weekday at noon east. Hello, beautiful Atlanta! Oh my God, it's incredible here! Look at this crowd! I'm honored to have you with me tonight. You guys, thank you so much for being here. Sit, sit, enjoy yourself. Okay, this one is super special to me for many reasons. I've got my kids backstage, two out of three. And I've got my brother Pete out there with you. Pete, are you in the front? Where are you? Stand up, Peter Kelly. Where is he? Here, right here. That's my big brother. Pete's five years older than I am, and we're a family of three. We lost my sister a couple years ago, but she was the oldest, and then came Pete, and then came me, and he absolutely tortured me as a child.

He looked out for me, tortured me, but it was a good kind of torture, right? It was the 70s, so we were raised right. Our parents ignored us, our older siblings bullied us, and we wound up having a thick skin that we would very much need later in life. Right? Right? We're too complimentary these days. I was talking to Tucker the other night, and he was saying his parents literally never paid him a compliment. Like, they never. They were not into compliments at all. And he was saying how his dad would look over his shoulder when he was writing his thank you notes, and if the dad ever saw the word I, he'd say, oh, it's all about you? Right? Now that's exactly the opposite of the message most of us are sending our kids.

Like, it is all about you. You're so smart and sweet and special, Junior. We're overcompensating, I think, for being ignored for the first 30 years of our lives. But I do believe that Gen X is the greatest generation. I know I'm biased. It's the greatest generation. But I did just read today that there, do you believe, guess what generation is considered the most conservative now, right now? Do you know? They're saying Gen Z. I do think that the back end of Gen Z, like our kids, they are going to be the most conservative. But right now, you're not going to believe this. It's millennials. It's millennials. I know. Millennials are actually the most conservative right now. And you know what? That is such a hopeful sign because they were lunatics like 15 years ago.

So maybe there's hope for the next gen coming up. I'm feeling very, very positive about it. In that sizzle reel we did, we love the sizzle reels. We have a great producer, Jake Whitman, who puts those together and they're so fun. You saw a clip of Jimmy Kimmel in his blackface, right? That guy wore blackface more times than you could count. He didn't get canceled. But not only was he in blackface, he was like speaking in Ebonics doing Karl Malone. Fine, no problem. You can be a big host of ABC News. We don't care. So there was a soundbite that was circulating today of Jimmy Kimmel and his wife. And you know, I really do believe this. You show me the wife and I'll tell you about the husband, right, when it comes to politics.

It's very rare that there'd be a huge gulf between them, right? Just doesn't tend to work, notwithstanding James Carville and Mary Matlin. So Jimmy and his wife gave an interview together in which the wife says she was raised by a conservative family and is talking about, in the Midwest, I think she's in Missouri, and the, yeah, right. You'd think she'd stay normal. That's not what happened. All right, just watch this. It hurts me so much because of the personal relationship I now have where my husband is out there fighting this man. And to me, them voting for Trump is them not voting for my husband and me and our family. And I unfortunately have... kind of lost relationships with people in my family because of it.

It's like, this is not just Republican versus Democrat for me anymore. It is, to me, it's family values. I like personalize everything now. When I see These terrible stories every day, I'm immediately mad at certain aunts, uncles, cousins who put him in power. And it's really hard. I wish I could deprogram myself in some way, but I get really angry.
