I think you would win that bet. If we had drinking games where we drink every time Emily repeats a phrase over and over and over in the same paragraph (4 times for “of course” in three sentences just today), and the ignorant “my friends” – who told her that was a good way to ingratiate herself with viewers? Wrong. It’s patronizing and condescending when it’s overused. She needs to go back to hosting school. All the hosts and vendors are her good friends and she falls all over herself when they come on.

She is the shoe rep – they didn’t say anything when she was just on last week.

Sorry, I wasn’t speaking about you at all. It’s not about you. I didn’t realize you were still here, bless your heart.

That comment WAS tone deaf since the longtime hosts that are leaving are so well-loved and respected by co-workers, vendors, and viewers…and it includes longtime models as well. To make a comment like that was TONE DEAF, but I can’t say I’m that surprised that it was Emily who said it. Keep the comments like that to yourself AT LEAST UNTIL St Pete campus closes its doors and turns out the lights.

Thank you, Kimberlie for “getting it”.

@klait Adam, Chelsea, and the boys took an extended vacation to Leeds and side trips to Europe. He’s back in West Chester now. Did his first Friday Night Finds.

They already are. Lynn is in PA right now.
