Actor Jerry O’Connell said Tuesday he wasn’t going to do podcasts anymore following his recent interview on Bill Maher<\/a>‘s “Club Random” podcast, during which he said his wife and children got “physical” with him after statements he made on election night in 2024.<\/p>\n

“Okay. @ClubRandom_ was my last podcast<\/a>. Can’t do anything right. @x is mad at me. My family is mad at me,” O’Connell wrote on X, in response to a headline about Maher making fun<\/a> of O’Connell for attending a Harris rally.<\/p>\n

O’Connell made headlines for revealing during the podcast<\/a> that his wife, actress Rebecca Romijn, and their daughters “became physical” with him after he criticized the Democratic Party’s lack of planning on election night in 2024.<\/p>\n

The actor added in the post that he would go on the “Pardon My Take” podcast to discuss fantasy football, but that was it.<\/p>\n

It was unclear if his X post about quitting the genre was tongue-in-cheek. In another post to X, he said that he would go on Meghan McCain’s podcast as well, “BUT THAT IS IT.”<\/p>\n

O’Connell, known for his roles in movies like “Stand By Me” and “Jerry Maguire,” detailed the election night spat during the podcast interview that aired on Monday. He was critical of the process that installed Harris as the Democratic nominee before she lost to President Donald Trump<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“I said something along the lines of ‘there was no planning. This is what they get. There should have been a primary.’ I said something along those lines, you know, like I was just spitballing ideas. It was a shock. My wife and daughters<\/u><\/a>, without saying anything, became physical with me. They were filled with rage,” O’Connell said.<\/p>\n

He continued, “So if I am being careful with you in how I say things, yes, I live in California<\/a>. I live with not one, not two, but three people who, if I made any kind of joke, they’d become very angry with me.”<\/p>\n

Maher responded by saying he could not live that way.<\/p>\n

“Whatever household situation I’m in, I say what I truly think, and if it makes you angry, I’m sorry. We’ll have to work that out. But I am not going to tuck my tail between my legs and just shut the f— up,” Maher said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
