Very excited to have our guest, Judge Judy Sheinland, who you can catch right now on Prime Video's new show, Justice on Trial, which is a terrific new show where she takes on and breaks down a lot of famous cases. But we have Judy on today, and we're going to talk to her about a lot of things. We talk to her about the importance of family. We talk about knowing your worth. We talk about how she feels about liars and newsflash. She doesn't like them. Second newsflash, she also wears a really cute hat. Judy is here. She's here in the studio, and it's a real good one. So I'm really glad you're joining us. And as always, we like to start our episodes by talking to someone who knows our guest, who is a fan of our guest. And we actually have our first super fan interview today. We are talking to Eileen Roman. Eileen is the mom of Bell Roman, our video producer who's here in the studio today. And Eileen is a huge fan of Judy and her work on Judge Judy and her other shows. And Eileen is going to talk to us about why Judy is so important to so many, why so many people trust her and why her show was the number one show for a million years. So Eileen is calling in. She's a Boston gal. And she, she has the same name as my mom. So Eileen, are you there?

Oh my God, it's so great to hear that Boston accent. I tried to tone it down, but it's really not easy. No, I mean, we will never get rid of it. And why should we, Eileen? Exactly. I'm proud of it. I think it's really great that we're talking to somebody who watches Judy Sheinland and has watched her. Sounds like as much as I have, because I think we're both super fans. Yeah, I am a super fan. Okay, tell me when you first encountered our guest, Judy. I mean, in the beginning, in the beginning, there was nobody like her on TV. And she was just real. And the stories can be the same, but the outcome was never the same, you know? And I just loved her no nonsense, straight talking, hardworking woman. No, that's why I have so much respect for her, because I know it probably wasn't an easy journey.

Now, are you, were you a working mom? I chose to be a stay-at-home mom, but I took that job really seriously, and I gave it 100%. I really did. And that's what my mindset, because I always worked my whole life since I was 12 years old, you know, at paper room, working in a restaurant, everything. I worked at Brigham's, I worked at Jerry Jingle. I worked at all kinds of places. I love Brigham's. Yeah, Brigham's. Oh my God, best ice cream ever. So you remind me a little bit of my mom. My mom is a teacher, and then, you know, back then, if you were pregnant, you had to quit. They were like, they were like, so sorry, your job is over. And you were like, of course, I'm so sorry, I'm pregnant. And she had to stop. She stopped teaching. She raised us. She was at home for, you know, X amount of years, and I went back to work after. And you, like a lot of women, your age were at home with a baby and looking to figure out what to watch on daytime TV. What do you think was so great about those beginning times when you were watching Judy as Judge Judy on TV? I learned a lot from her. I learned like how to stand up for myself.
