During the “clean up” Goldberg conceded that “things get heated on this show.”
“We’re really passionate, this is our jobs. We come in. We talk to each other. Sometimes we’re not as polite as we could be,” she said. “That’s just the way it is. This is part of what we do.”
“This is not an indication that women can’t sit around and talk. This is not an indication that we don’t know how to deal with each other on camera. This is happening in real-time. Stuff happens on this show in real-time, and everybody, wherever you sit in all of this, don’t assume that we’re over here with little butcher knives under the table, you know,” Goldberg continued.
“It just doesn’t work that way. This is our gig, and sometimes it goes off the rails, and it does. So [if] you can say that’s never happened to any of y’all, that you’ve never had this happen, you understand where we’re coming from. So everybody just calm down. It’s a TV show. We’re on together for an hour and we step in poopie, okay? We step in poopie and stuff happens and everybody just calm down.”
