What this episode covers

Transcript Segment 1 Heidi Harris: Good afternoon, always a privilege to be sitting in for Charlie. He'll be back tomorrow. Always love hanging out with you guys. All right, I want you to get your boo-hoo caps on, okay, guys? I want you to pull out some Kleenex and basically—I was thinking about this this morning. Does anybody call them Kleenex? I think if you're a certain age, you call them Kleenex, and if you're under a certain age, you call them tissue, right? Yeah. Pull out your tissue. Susan Sarandon has—is now crying about the fact that Palestine support has cost her work. She can't get any jobs. In a press conference yesterday, which would be the 6th of September, in Venice, so that's obviously time difference, she said her vocal support for Palestine still causes her to lose work in Hollywood. Boo-hoo. Now, once again, you know, if you want to support her, and there are a lot of liberals who employ a lot of liberals who hate Israel, hate America—we know that's the truth. She says she faces resistance when it comes to being hired by major studios, adding that people in very strongly held positions in the industry have not relaxed their feelings toward me. Well, there are a lot of Jewish people in power in Hollywood. Now, there are a lot of Jewish liberals, but when it comes down to defending Palestine, a little bit different. She said, "I've had movies taken away recently because there are agencies that are telling me—people not to hire me still." Oh, well. But she says, "But among people, certainly internationally, I feel welcome." Well, go move to Gaza. Please do me a favor, sweetheart. Was she Thelma or was she Louise? I don't remember which one she was. Please go move to Gaza. She supported Palestine in advocacy for a ceasefire in Gaza, even in the wake of what happened October 7th, 2023, in Israel. So, listen, you—you are entitled to say whatever you want to. But what nobody is entitled to is acceptance. Nobody's entitled to applause for everything they say. No one—not me, not anyone. You're allowed to say what you want to in America, pretty much. Not always, but pretty much. But you are not entitled to have everybody say, "This is—I love this. This is so great. I think this is the smartest thing I've ever heard," or whatever. People are going to be upset with what you say, and if you can't handle it, you know... And I think she's handling it fairly well, considering. I mean, she's just basic—I don't think she's so much—a whining a little bit, but basically talking about—taking a position and sticking by it. Okay, fine. She told Variety in 2024 she'd lost work and become estranged from friends and family, but she's gained inspiration from those who care enough about humanity and believe enough in the possibility of a better world to raise their voices to stop genocide. Okay. You're talking about the Christians being killed in Africa? No, you're not talking about that. Oh, no, sorry. Thought you might be. I guess not. And she's, you know, big liberal, which you're entitled to be. And I know there are people who say, "Well, why are you saying anything, because, you know, you—you know, you just want to be..." Like Dolly Parton. Say what you want about Dolly. I mean, she was obviously a great—seemed like a great human being in a lot of ways, and super, super talented, and did a lot for charity, and songwriter, businesswoman, amazing. Didn't talk about politics. She just—and that she's entitled to. She was certainly entitled to do it, but she decided not to because she said, "I don't want to lose people. Why should I do that?" That's right. I mean, you—you have the right. No one's taking that right away from you. And some people, when they have a platform, they feel like the world wants to hear. Who was it who said—I think it was Harry Warner. Harry Warner—who the—I'm using—going to use the wrong—he says—I'm going to say who the heck, okay?—wants to hear actors talk. I think that was Harry Warner in 19—let ...
