After bidding farewell to my talk show three years ago and wrapping up filming nearly two years later, I’ve stepped into a new phase of retirement, as evidenced by the release of my stand-up special, “For Your Approval,” set to premiere on Netflix in mid-September. This could potentially mark the end of my televised stage performances, and for the sake of former staff members who have expressed concerns about my workplace conduct, I hope this is a sign of good things to come.

Last week, Julie Chrisley faced a hearing to reschedule her bank fraud sentence in Atlanta, which was a disappointment for the former star of “Chrisley Knows Best.” As prosecutors had requested, the 51-year-old mother’s original 84-month sentence remains unchanged following the resentencing. Since then, Chrisley’s attorney, Jay Surgent, has expressed his discontent with the situation and is now outlining their next course of action.

Initially, no film studios were interested in producing “Megalopolis,” Francis Ford Coppola’s blend of retrofuturistic architecture and Roman history, due to its unique concept and high production cost (ranging from $120 to $136 million). Now that the movie has been released nationwide, it’s clear why studios were hesitant: “Megalopolis” hasn’t resonated with audiences, with many viewers expressing indifference towards it. The film’s earnings during its first weekend were estimated at $4 million, falling short even of the initial predictions of a $5-7 million opening.
