[Audio] Local woman featured on ‘The Jerry Springer Show’ discusses experience; Top stories from last week

In the latest episode of Humboldt Last Week (11:53): (Warning: Explicit content) Last week a Eureka woman granted an interview to discuss she and her boyfriend’s appearance on “The Jerry Springer Show” a few months back.

Hint: The poor character they exemplified on the show was exaggerated, or… Jerry-rigged. They’re still together.

“…We were having to having to practice yelling at each other and fighting,” said Elizabeth Provost, who met her boyfriend Evan Carver on Tinder. “They wanted us to be like actors… (They were like): ‘If you’re gonna laugh and think this is a game, then get the fuck out of my studio,’ is how they were talking to us. Slightly — not completely rude the whole time.”

In the podcast Provost discusses their salacious narratives in the show, their experiences filming, their trip to New York, relationships, infidelity, and people who comment on stories without fully digesting the content.

The interview begins at 11:53.

Wow. Fascinating.

How is it a story that some couple was asked to dial up and/or make up the stupid on the Springer Show?

Never actually watched the show before, perhaps? (I wouldn’t blame you.)

Thank You. Im not tech savvy, so I didn’t know to try that. I don’t mind the podcast, it just sometimes catches me off guard, usually with the volume all the way up and a sleeping household. Happy New Year!

‘Live PD’ is much better than ‘Cops’. Cameras are in the cars with the PD during chases, etc. Get a real perspective on why crime is rampant throughout the US. 80% of people they pullover have meth, heroin, guns, no license/registration, felons or have warrants; or all 6.

Morton Downey’s far right-wing racist mysoginist lead! (But I must admit, his show was entertaining at times.👄)

You should watch the documentary about Downey’s life that came out after he died. It turns out he was a VERY different person than his nutball talk show portrayed, as he was just playing the role of right-wing scumbag for the cash. 💵 (I’ve heard the same about Rush Limbaugh from a person who knows him.)

Kids, don’t smoke cigarettes. They will kill you. 💀🚬

R.I.P. Morton Downey, Jr.

There is little if anything even faintly resembling Reality in a Reality TV show, especially of the type Jerry, Jerry, Jerry, does!!!

It’s called scripted reality. It’s what 90% of reality shows are nowadays….because reality is actually boring.

#1 wasn’t a dick move. They needed to go. Or were you ok with a marsh being turned into a piss and trash filled gutter full of needles, other persons stuff, violence, drug use, and at least 3 kids born to homeless druggie Moms that I know of? Sure….I call it sanitizing, which should have happened years ago. The bsy trail has been planned for 20 years.

“…I don’t think I’ve ever seen such an unattractive town…)

Dude, Eureka is not just Broadway. Try driving a mile or two inland next time you’re taking the 101 North @ Broadway. Eureka has some very nice neighborhoods, if you haven’t noticed yet (other than Old Town by the bay).

If Eueka is the ugliest place you’ve been to, you are one sheltered little snowflake. ❄️

What a fun episode to end 2017 with! Blah blah blah to everyone nitpicking about what’s reality TV, what’s real, what’s not. Blah. It’s all for fun!
As always, great job on putting in the time to gather highlights for your fellow locals (especially those of us that prefer listening rather than reading). You have such a way about you 😛
Happy New Year, Myles! Looking forward to the upcoming year with HLW!
