What tragic story about Presley Gerber opens the episode?
hello and welcome to your friday edition of the nerve i am your host maureen callahan so much to get to today our favorite celebrity reporter friend of the nerve rob shooter is back from vacation believe it or not he was in the uk for two weeks so he's got lots to tell us about the gruesome twosome but first first There is one story dominating this week and that is the tragic death of Presley Gerber, son of Cindy Crawford and Randy Gerber. We are going to have a conversation on the nerve with Rob that is not being had really at all in the mainstream media. Nobody's digging. Nobody's digging in the way that we're going to dig. This story goes beyond the sort of celebrity scandal version of it. Like it goes, I think, to a really, really stubborn sickness in the culture.
And it's a sickness that even A-list celebrities are not immune from. In fact, they may be more likely to believe it, to believe the lie of this sickness than the rest of us are, like the rest of us on the outside of it. You know what I mean? Then we've got more on the gruesome twosome. Meghan Markle spotted by paparazzi in the Cotswolds. Wonder how that happened. Wonder how. And then Prince Harry was over here in the United States giving a speech until his prompter went down. It's amazing. We've got the actual footage. We've got the actual footage. We're going to talk about Charles Spencer and the mess that his book is in, the mess that he is in. We have tons to get to. We've got some housekeeping later in the show.
We're going to talk about Another celebrity who I swear these people, it's just the way the wind blows, trotted out their Nepo spawn to begin the entrance into the culture, advertising her to the media and entertainment establishment at large. Here's your next star. Do with this star what you will, my interpretation. Then Presley Gerber dies. And this celebrity has a whole other explanation.
