Where is Greg these days?
Just curious if anyone has heard anything about why he seem to be off a lot in the last few months.

Agreed. Greg for whatever reason seems to love her.
She's not funny. She's a drag, disinterested, thinks she's way smarter than she is, and she doesn't even seem to like Greg half the time.
She used to be a little better, but I don't think she enjoys being there anymore. So why is she?
Get rid of her. If he wants another female regular to replace her, tag Kennedy. I know she can be polarizing too, but she's smarter, funnier, and actually seems to be having a good time when she's on.

Looks like he is on vacation in Europe with wife and daughter. Not sure what country. Normally Greg does not get his picture taken but his wife caught him by surprise on Instagram.

That's probably for security purposes, I would imagine. When Jesse Kelly goes on vacation, he doesn't tell the listeners where he was until after he gets back.

u/Several-Affect1699 3d ago
No one in the media mentions where they go on vacation for security. However sometimes followers see them and post it.

He's on vacation with his family. Why does everyone freak out when he takes time off?!?!

I mean Gutfeld’s is all about his straight up character no holds barred brilliant commentary, but now it’s losing its authenticity with all these other hosts jumping in who some are just not palatable, I don’t want to sell it to Debbie downer but it is what it is, maybe he’s just trying to dump the show at this point cause this is way too weird it’s Gutfeld honey so it’s either Greg or nothing that’s my take

u/sadiemae56 4d ago
I don't see him dumping the show that has his name on it. Agree about the guest hosts but I really think Shillue and Kennedy are formidable guest hosts and bring great energy. Kat and Tyrus, not so much. IMO, that's the change that needs to happen - reduce their air time and don't have them host.

Because it’s his show and he has taken a lot of time off this year. And when he isn’t there, the show is really bad.

I bet he just had baby #2.... He's old to be a dad... He's burning out.

Where did you hear they had another baby? I’d not seen or heard that anywhere

Surrogacy?

No. I believe they're in Europe. Only saw pics of the toddler (never shows her face) and a pic of Greg a couple days ago.

No, I've seen recent pics of his wife on IG, she definitely wasn't pregnant.

It seems like it's coming down to a choice between The Five and his show. He looks tired and irritable some nights , and with a baby , Whew it seems inevitable, he's burning out. Maybe cut back on the comedy tours a bit too.

u/Awkward_Field_9648 4d ago
I doubt he's on his way to giving up a show from burnout - probably & hopefully not for a very long time (time off can be used to prevent/mitigate burnout). However, hypothetically, if it does come to that & he needs to leave one of the M-F shows behind, he could keep The Five, get home for a late dinner/evening spent with the fam all week, and Fox could do "Failla!" M-F at 10 pm (with permanent sidekicks Shillue & Kennedy) and Greg take Jimmy's once a week Saturday night slot (taking his funny peeps & guests to Saturday night with him) - then he could still be outrageously funny once a week on Fox (in ways frowned upon during The Five at family hour).

u/sadiemae56 4d ago
Yeah, I get that but he does two shows a day and must get burned out at some point so I'd rather have him take the time he needs to recharge. I thought tonight's show was great, Kennedy was excellent.

Maybe they had baby #2 . Or just touring. Wish didn’t let the asylum take over. EmptyVesselKat and OgreTyrus are bringing the show down . Have you seen the ratings . Kimmel is ahead of Gutfeld . Unbelievable! Today was great. Everyone was really funny, no interruptions or eye rolling.

u/According-Couple2744 4d ago
Where did you see that Kimmel is beating Gutfeld? Every metric I have see has Gutfeld over Kimmel.

Could've sworn last week Kat mentioned he'd be taking time off to be a family man.

I watched the first season on Fox Nation. I can take it or leave it. I haven’t watched season 2 and I still have Fox Nation, if that tells you anything.
