Chapter 1: What heartwarming moment did Megyn Kelly share about her daughter's talent show?
Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show, live on Sirius XM Channel 111 every weekday at noon east. Megan Kelly, welcome to The Megan Kelly Show and happy Friday. Okay, can I just tell you something before we get started? You know what I did this morning? I did the best thing. The best, best thing. It was a talent show at our daughter's middle school. She's finishing eighth grade.
And so it was all the girls in this middle school doing their thing. I am such a sucker for this stuff. Guys, I cried like five times. Not like the ugly cry, but cried. I mean, like actual tears. Over what? Kids I do not know, like some random child getting up there and singing. Some amazing, some not that amazing. Didn't matter. Just like the Just the risk of it.
You know, just these little girls getting up there and like standing alone in front of a microphone, looking out at a full audience and singing. That takes guts. That's ballsy. And then other girls do. It was like everything from like one girl did the Irish, you know, step dancing. That was great. And another girl played the violin. Another girl, she was a sleeper, a sleeper candidate.
came out there with a guitar. She played the first couple of chords. I was like, okay, let's see if she can play. And then she started singing. She was a voice of an angel. It was like brought down the house. My daughter and her dear, dear friend have done the same thing.
I think all four years of middle school in our town, it goes fifth through eighth, um, where they put on an enormous animal costume and do a dance to get like last year. I think they were a horse in this year. Um, I don't know what the custom was this year. Was it a dog? It was unidentifiable. So all of it, it just makes me cry because it's like risk-taking, a moment in the spotlight.
And here's the other thing I loved about it. I loved that these girls, you know how we talk about mean girls and that's a thing. That's for sure. That's a thing. Well, here's the great thing about girls that you probably aren't going to see at the all boys assembly.
all of them, like with their arms up for the listening audience, I'm waving like hands left to right and with every girl singing with every girl's piano solo, you know, the whole auditorium and like shouting out the girls, like total support, solidarity, sisterhood, not a hint of mean girl action, not a hint of it, just total support and like clicks for their fellow middle schoolers.
It was so uplifting. I don't know how they managed to make middle school pleasant, but they did. My daughter had a great time in it. I watched it happen with her and her friends. And congrats to all these girls who are trying to do middle school in a different way. And to these girls who got up on stage today and sat in the front row of their life. Love it. Absolutely love it. Okay.
Um, we right here have a great show lined up for you. It's not going to have Irish step dancing, but it is going to have link Lauren, which is, I mean, almost as good. He's the latest member of our MK media team and his podcast launches on Monday. He's a former senior advisor to RFKJ. which is perfect because there is so much maha drama happening right now.

think Megan would like it, but you know, I'll play it safe till the show launches. But yeah, no, I'm grateful to be included. And I grew up watching the circus religious, like 10 years ago, I would watch the circus and want to be a part of politics. So to be friends with Mark, yeah, with Mark Halperin.

Okay, let's talk about the Pope for a minute because we've learned a lot about our newly elected Pope since this time yesterday when the news broke. He was Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost, and now he's Pope Leo XIV. And he's from Chicago. He's born in Chicago. As I was calling him yesterday online, da Pope, which is kind of fun from Chicago, like da bears.
And then he went, he was sent by Pope Francis or over to Peru. I think it was Pope Francis and I, but the Pope at the time sent him over to Peru where he spent a long time and he actually became a dual citizen of America and Peru. And then he wasn't made a Cardinal until 2023. But he's since then been the guy in charge of finding new bishops and elevating priests up to the bishop position.
