>> jesse: kamala harris answers a question nobody asked. >> when i die i don't want friends to be the first thing that's mentioned. >> jesse: an american icon, drowned in a jacuzzi, what happened? >> you're a good guy, i voted for you. this is important. >> you need to leave. >> jesse: don't you dare talk to john fetterman. plus. foul. >> jesse: one of america's favorite actors died over the weekend, matthew perry who played chandler bing who played in "friends," under water in his hot top in his la home saturday afternoon. we don't know the cause of death. authorities have done an autopsy but haven't released anything. but they ruled out foul play. we're still waiting for the toxicology. police found some prescription pills in his house and the cause of death is listed as deferred. i grew up watching "friends" almost every thursday night on nbc. and the chandler character was the funniest. >> you know, i don't dance at weddings. >> why not. >> weddings are a great place to meet women. when i dance i look like this. >> pay backs. pay backs. >> shut up. shut up. >> i could have got me a vcr, he has to get me the woman repeller. the eyesore from the lib ram i house of crap. >> not that bad. >> easy for you to say, you don't have to sport some reject from the mr. t collection. >> chandler. >> i pity the fool who puts on my jewelry. i do. i do. i p pity the fool. >> jesse: making such an impact well because "friends" was a cultural phenomenon. it did ten seasons from the mid-90s to the 2000s. the show averaged 25,000,000 viewers per episode. today's top sit-coms don't crack 10,000,000 an episode. ross' wedding episode 32,000,000. rachel has a baby, pa million. the final friends episode, 53 mill i don't know americans watched -- millions americans watched. it was the last golden age of tv, family and friends, boyfriends and girlfriends gathered around the tv on thursday and watched friends together. the entire country shared the experience. we talked about it afterwards, we used their jokes. and chandler was the comedian of the franchise, his humor, his timing, the way he teased his friends, imprinted itself on our culture. the ton woman non-doesn't exist anymore. the only thing anybody watches together is football. the rest of entertainment is fractured into thousands of different shows on hundreds of different platforms available on demand, on multiple devices. there is no shared cultural media experience anymore. 62,000,000 people used to watch the cosby show each week. together. 93,000,000 americans watched the final episode "cheers" almost half te country experiencing the same thing at the same time. seinfeld was huge, friends was huge, today america lacks that kind of campfire that the country sits around and enjoys together. this is one of the reasons people feel isolated and disconnected within their very own country. people often feed these feelings with drugs. and matthew perry was one of them. he abused drugs and alcohol his entire life. mathee perry felt abandoned by his parents he said. they were divorced and his father was out of picture. he saw his dad john bennett perry more on tv than in person growing up. this made him feel deeply in secure and drove his addictions. drinking heavily as a teen. at the beginning of the "friends" franchise he got into a jet-ski accident and hooked on vicodin. perry said he couldn't remember most of seasons 3 to 6. >> i should have been the toast of the time. 55 vicodin a day which is where i was. so, i did all sorts of things a bunch of doctors, faked migraines. the weirdest thing i did on sundays i would go to open houses and go to the bathrooms in the open house and see what pills they had in there and steal them. no way chandler stole from us. >> jesse: he abused xanax, vicodin, he drank liters of vodka. he said that when he was skinniest on friends it was the pain killers. he said when he was the heaviest, it was because of the drinking. and perry said when he had to go that's when he was on a lot of pills. in 2018 he was in a coma for two weeks after an opioid overdose, first his colon. three years later his heart stopped beating in switzerland, doctors broke eight ribs to resuspect state him. perry was sober for the last two years, recently had been posting about batman. hosting batman signs, batman movie. started calling himself mattman just like batman he had been traumatized as a child and now trying to help people. >> the best thing about me bar none is if somebody comes up to me and says i can't stop drinking, can you help me? i can say, yes. and follow-up and do it. that's the best thing. and i said this for a long time, when i die i don't want friends to be the first thing that's mentioned, i want that to be the first thing that's mentioned and i am going to live the rest of my live proving that. >> jesse: the actor had been to rehab 15 times, spent $9 million trying to get sober. but matthew perry like millions of americans, abusing drugs to fix their past and search for meaning. over 100,000 americans die from drug overdoses each year and the numbers keep going up. our society's broken, we've lost our faith, we've lost our family and now we're losing our friends. jennifer is the host of good day la. so, what's the latest, jennifer? >> well the latest is the cast of "friends" the cast of "friends" yes mained like a family. made a brief statement exclusively to people magazine, they are utterly devastated and they are going to have to have some time to process what happened. i am sure we are going to hear a more poignant statement from the cast in the coming days. they just need time to process what has been -- i mean a huge shock really around the world. when the alert came through on saturday, i don't know about you, it felt reminiscent of the way that people felt after rob in williams passed. this person who made a career out of making the world laugh and smile so in dearing and beloved but at the same time so deeply tormented in his personal life. and matthew perry for his part was very open about it. he wrote about it in his memoir, ugly side of addiction, the embarrassing side. the toll he took. special in 2021, he wrote something that stands out, if i did die it would shock people but it wouldn't surprise anybody. that's why he wrote the book. he knew people would think of friends when they thought of him, chandler bing of course, he didn't want that to be the first thing that people thought of. he wanted his legacy to be that of service, helping overcome addictions and he spent every single day efforting that. >> jesse: i bought the book. it's an amazing book and you don't want to read the whole thing, just the first chapter. he takes you into the most dark place you could ever imagine, rock bottom, literally rock bottom. >> yeah. >> jesse: if you want to learn about addiction and depression and referee, read that first chapter. jennifer we want to run. keep us posted about the toxicology report. >> it will take a few weeks, yes, for sure. thank you. >> jesse: thank you. here now dr. drew pinski an addiction medication specialist. does anything stand out specifically with you and perry? >> no, jesse. in fact, it's the fact that it is so ordinary story of addiction particular oral opioids, something we seen in the early 2000s every day. cuts across everyone and all type, brilliant and talented and successful, it doesn't matter. this illness affects all types and his story 50 vicodin a day, that is my average in my oral opioid patients. most opioid addicts if they don't get their disease under control don't live to see 60. >> jesse: what is it about the opioids, that has totally taken over this nation? >> well fentanyl is really the problem right now, right? most people can't afford to stay with the oral opioids. first of all, the problem with my profession, we were over prescribing opioids, the drug manufacturers obviously blew wind in the sails of that trend. we made massive mistakes and created a drug addiction hand over fist. a lot of those people went on to heroin and now they've gone on to fentanyl it's killing people, over 100,000 people a year. >> jesse: i never heard a professional admit their industry screwed up so badly and cost to many lives. are you just the brave one? >> now there is an opinion there was a terrible missed a venture. physicians coming up with a standard of care and ' advantage he will lying physician is, think they are saving the world from something like covid or pain, whatever it might be you need consensus, you need a very careful -- always in your head before you prescribe anything, my fear, matthew perry's case there is going to be somebody prescribing. biggest risk being a celebrity is getting involved with a physician who gets excited about taking care of a sperm person and doesn't understand what could happen. if somebody gave him a benzo die as mean. >> jesse: the quickest way to having assure death is having a personal physician. >> certainly if you are a celebrity. >> jesse: absolutely. >> if you are a celebrity prince or michael jackson, you could name it, there has been a lot of stories like that. i used to make, you know, we had a program, we spent a lot of time polling celebrities away from situations like that. >> jesse: be aware of the evangelical physician,. >> you bet. >> jesse: behind the scenes biden 2024 reelection campaign is being called a horror show. how one biden official describes it. the most pessimistic scenario is the most likely outcome. some biden backers say the president is one trip or stumble or brain glitch away from another round of biden's too old pandering. and now growing concerns over world war 3 and an election hanging by a thread. the white house is trying to shock some life into their cabinet. they are sending out kamala harris with the defibrillator. >> we were talking to some democratic donors and they have told us that should something we fall president biden, and he is not able to run, that there will would be a free for all for who would run as president. >> well, first of all, i'm not going to engage in that hypothetical. joe biden is very much alive and running for reelection. >> you do know. i mean, that is a concern. and a legitimate concern i would say. >> i hear from a lot of different people a lot of different things. let me tell you, i'm focused on the job. i truly am. our democracy is on the line, bill. and i frankly in my head do not have time for parlor games when we have a president who is running for reelection. that's it. >> jesse: that's it. he's alive. that's it. ever since fetterman was elected the only thing that matter is he alive. breathing or not breathing. if he's breathing there is a chance. they won the first election barely running, maybe they could win the second election barely breathing. the biden campaign slogan is the bee gees slogan, "stay alive." >> the biden-harris ticket is running neck and neck with donald trump. why are you not 30 points ahead? >> well, i'm not a political pundit so i am not going to speak to that. but what i will say is this, when the american people are able to take a close look at election time on their options i think the choice is going to be clear. bill, we are going to win. let me just tell you that. we are going to win. and i am not saying it's going to be easy. but we will win. >> jesse: not all democrats think so. andrew cuomo, the former governor here in new york said biden is going to lose. >> so would you be running against him right now -- >> probably, probably. >> you would? >> even with him sitting in office? >> probably. >> you think some other democrat should do that. >> i think it should be another democrat. i don't know that candidate biden is the strongest candidate that we can put up and frankly i doubt it. >> jesse: well we thought the strongest cabinet was gavin newsom. still in china. the chinese keep asking governor, when are you leaving? and the governor says, look at the size of that bird. who looks at a bird like that? it's just a crane, gavin, we have those here, too. that's not a bat. you leave this guy alone with a crane he is going to start gain of functioning another pandemic. the last time they did that a million people died. newsom left the petting zoo and hit the amusement parks. >> what did you think? >> it was amazing. >> how fast were you going? >> about 70, 80 miles an hour. >> jesse: they showed gavin the great wall of china the twisted tree of collaboration, seems like china is running out of things to show him. cranes and a toboggan? i mean, they are showing him stuff that we have like basketball. except it's different, it's chinese basketball. so, gavin got in a pickup game with 10-year-olds and thought he was michael jordan. >> jesse: newsom looks like he can ball. but then he got cocky. and he started driving to the hall. >> gotta work on my balance. tell everyone i didn't miss a shot. >> jesse: newsom is falling all over the chinese. this is the perfect propaganda video, wandering around china in all at their electrical cars, posing like a model, fascinated with their wildlife which doesn't have a great rep, by the way. saintering toboggan rides, extra second too long. what a sucker. this race is going to come down to who looks better on stage, isn't it? all democrats have to do is stay alive and not trip. you think trip trump is going to let any of that go. >> he can't get off a stage and he goes, thank you. thank you. all right? where am i. >> jesse: biden goes on stage, makes a fool of himself. kamala goes on 60 minutes and makes a fool of herself. career lifelong politicians who don't know what to do on stage in an interview in front of enemies. three things every politician should be able to do. trump who never spent a day in his life in politics is running his whole campaign on this. >> we have a leader that doesn't know what the hell he is doing and we are dealing in the most -- it's complicated. it's not that complicated. it's not that complicated. we are not going to be taken advantage of by foreign countries. we are go go bring our jobs back, we are going to bring our dignity back, because right now the whole world is laughing at the united states of america because we have a fool for president and we are going to change that in 2024. >> jesse: no wonder they hate him, politicians spent 8 years getting post-graduate degrees, act like everything is so complicated. only someone as qualified as they are can fix this. and a real estate tycoon comes along, why don't we just build a wall. walls don't work, you have to go after the root causes and invest in high-tech sensors and trump says, why don't we just start off with a wall. politicians spent years trying to figure out why isis hated us so much. why don't we just bomb them? oh, you can't do that. well he did and then we haven't heard from isis since. the liberal politicians who never built a thing in their life don't know how gas get into a car, decided we are going to take the greatest economy in the world and reverse engineer it so everything runs on windmills and solar panels. trump says we should probably still drill. and they said no, no, you haven't seen the science. well i know oil works, what about that science? democrats say we have to pay the iranians billions of dollars, sign them with a nuke deal and drop the songs, it's part of our -- sanctions, it's part of our master plan to fix the middle east. has anything the democrats said they are going to do works. nothing none of it is that complicated. politicians make it complicated. if you propose simple solutions they call you simpleton. and the same people who call you a simpleton are paying terrorists knocking down border walls, bailing out criminals, spending trillions of dollars, making cars that that plug into a grid that works on coal. the next election isn't complicated. are you really going to vote for the guy who is just alive? here now jordan, known as the wolf of wall street and author of the new book "the wolf of investing" is it really that complicated. >> to run a country, i tell you what, biden shall -- he is kind of alive. certainly, listen here is the deal. the first move he made was to make us not energy independent anymore. that was the first move. that from there all bad things happened. so, i don't think their outcome is not looking to have the country prosper, they are concerned with climate changes, existential threats, and so if -- your plan is not to prosper, i guess he is doing well, it's not the plan. >> jesse: a u.s. ceo on wall street where you are familiar with, this guy is 80 and falling all over the place and confusing things, what would you do as a shareholder? >> mandatory retirement ages, he would be long out the first time he fell off the stage or couldn't come up with the right word. it's an embarrassing. >> jesse: are you embarrassed? i didn't think you were capable of feeling embarrassed? >> myself, i have affixed -- when i watched that, i travel around the world, people are like what is going on with your country. that's really your president? >> jesse: when you travel around, what do you hear? >> people think america is broken. they don't understand, we were this beacon of light, source of strength and prosperity. now it's a joke. >> jesse: what do you tell them? >> hopefully he will be gone in another year or so. they are playing to these emotional fears of climate change and, you know, woke agenda and kind of getting the young people to really, you know, buy into this ticket on the left. >> jesse: you love climate change, look at this tan. he is asking for more climate change. go get jordan's new book. investing is not that complicated when you read the book. thank you very much. a death on the ice, was it murder?
