What is Justin Baldoni’s lawsuit about?

Unknown Speaker 1 2:00
I was in rot mode.
Nick Viall 2:01
Oh, my God. Yeah. No, I was just trying to be like aesthetically pleasing. Like black and white.
Unknown Speaker 1 2:06
I thought it was because I was.
Nick Viall 2:07
I think we had like gone to lunch that day. We had like gone out. We left the house. Yesterday was like rough for both of us.
Unknown Speaker 1 2:14
she was romanticizing your rot oh wow that's how you know it's love when you romanticize the rot yeah well we have a wild episode lined up for y'all the very hilarious very talented very wonderful heather mcmahon is with us shortly also emily baker is returning shortly she's coming up next uh because as we now know update justin belladoni did file a suit against the new york times It did seem like a lot of the Justin stans who like last week felt, I don't know what they felt. Maybe they felt like, oh, we got it wrong or the tail between their legs. And it did feel like there was a lot of Justin stans loud and proud doing victory laps over the weekend. We want to break it down with Emily. Obviously, we have our opinions of the case, but I want to bring on Emily first and just kind of ask her some questions, get her thoughts. We want to be as objective as possible. Obviously, we have our opinions, but I want to hear from Emily. I'm not even sure what she has to say about it, what her opinions on the case are. So we'll break it all down, give our thoughts, give our feelings.
Unknown Speaker 1 3:13
That will be up in just a few moments. Also, the Golden Globes happened last night. Our friend of show, Nikki Glaser, crushed it. I'm really proud of Nikki, now that she needs our Our pride. Oh, she killed.
Nick Viall 3:27
She killed. Last night. Hysterical. It was like a mix of just the perfect amount of roast with classy jokes and... She kept it punchy and fun and good energy. It wasn't like...
Unknown Speaker 1 3:41
too below the belt or like awkward or not funny or like it was just all like she won the room which is the most important part and nikki was able to just like be vaguely recognizable enough to everyone that they're like i kind of know that girl and then she was like i'm gonna get down to your level i'm not gonna be too mean i have actually watched these movies yeah um and i respect what you do but i am gonna make fun of you and make an incredible stanley tucci joke
Nick Viall 4:04
I watched her do some interview and it was like, how do you find the balance? And she basically was like, I study these people and I become fans of them so that the quote unquote roast comes from a place of love and not from a place of like, I can't stand this person, but of like, at the end of the day, I still respect you and love you and appreciate what you create. But we're excited for her.
