After Lunchbox sparked some controversy by suggesting Jeremy Piven be a guest on the show, things have taken an interesting turn.
Piven had liked one of Bobby’s Instagram posts. The moment stood out immediately, as Bobby noted that he doesn’t follow him, making the notification feel intentional rather than coicendence. To provide context for anyone who missed it, Amy had previously shared that Piven DM’d her on Instagram and asked her out for coffee. The situation had already been discussed on the show, including details of the invitation and Amy’s hesitation to respond.
Things escalated when it was revealed that Piven had also sent a direct message, not to Amy this time, but to the show’s official account, which Morgan oversees. The message read that he loves the show and mentioned an upcoming appearance, adding that he would be open to visiting. The guys quickly reacted with excitement, suggesting he should come into the studio and even chanting “put him on the couch.” However, the moment brought back some tension for Amy. She reflected on a previous disagreement about posting content related to the situation. She had once requested the ability to approve certain videos before they were shared, but was told by Bobby she would only get one such approval per year. That opportunity had already been used, leaving her unable to prevent the video discussing Piven from being posted. The video itself had included multiple references to Piven by name, along with photos used for context. Amy admitted she hadn’t seen the final version but learned it clearly outlined the entire situation, including that Piven had messaged her and that she hadn’t responded.
Despite the renewed attention, Amy expressed mixed feelings. While she acknowledged that Piven likely reaches out to many people and may simply be promoting his shows, she also questioned whether he was even connecting the dots between the show’s content and her identity. As the group continued discussing the situation, they encouraged Amy to check her direct messages again, and she confirmed there were no new messages from Piven in her inbox.
