Rob Schneider To Launch New Woman’s Show To Compete With ‘The View’

Actor and comedian Rob Schneider has unveiled plans for a new women’s talk show through his media company, positioning it as a distinct alternative to ABC’s 'The View.'

“‘No Apologies Media,’ my new company, we’re going to do an all-ladies talk show that won’t be like ‘The View,’” Schneider shared. “It will be the opposite because this will be entertaining. It’ll be funny,” he remarked during an appearance on 'Fox News @ Night.'

Schneider elaborated, stating, “It’ll have funny women on it that are going to tell jokes and tell stories, and health and wellness.”

The upcoming program, set to feature “household names,” will begin filming ahead of President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration, according to Fox News.

Schneider had initially hinted at the project late last year, highlighting that, in contrast to 'The View,' this new talk show’s goal is to make people laugh rather than “shaming them” with political discourse.

“People are sick of it,” he said, referring to divisive political discussions. “We’re going to have an entertaining show with people — from all over America. We’re not just trying to bring people who are angry and bitter and reinforcing their political echo chamber,” he added.

In recent years, Schneider has voiced concerns about the growing threats to free speech in the United States.

His latest book, You Can Do It!, titled after his well-known movie catchphrase, encourages Americans to openly express their thoughts and actively defend their First Amendment rights.

“Now’s the time to stand up. Now’s the time for courage. I mean, this government and our freedoms require something – eternal vigilance. Or we’ll lose it,” Schneider emphasized in a discussion with Fox News Digital following the book’s release in September.

“Unfortunately, my book is timely, and I mean that because it’s unfortunate that we need to have to talk about and reinforce what this nation is – one of its principal foundational beliefs – which is that, freedom of speech is the First Amendment, not third, not fourth, not even second,” he stated.

Reflecting on America’s historical foundations, Schneider told Fox News: “Even before guns. Our government, our Founding Fathers, realized that the real weapon to prevent tyranny, and this nation turning to tyranny – even more important than guns – was unfettered free speech.”

Beyond sharing personal experiences with comedic legends such as David Spade and Chris Farley, Schneider’s book also includes profiles of 20th-century American comedians. Many of these entertainers took significant risks—sometimes even jeopardizing their careers—to challenge and provoke the prevailing cultural norms through humor.

A central theme of the book highlights how comedians have historically played a crucial role in defending Americans’ First Amendment rights by testing the limits of permissible speech in the public arena.

Schneider pointed out that this principle is especially relevant today, asserting that media organizations and large corporations, which he claims have been “captured” by liberal ideologies, are increasingly silencing opposing viewpoints.

He expressed concern over the current state of free speech, specifically calling out the Democratic Party and Vice President Kamala Harris’s vision for the country.

“And that is under attack by these, you know, Marxists in our government, and I say Marxist in the traditional meaning of it. We are dealing with – Kamala Harris is a Marxist. Democrats don’t watch free speech… Our system is corrupt, and if you want it to continue to get more corrupt then f—–g vote for Kamala,” he said.

“At what point do we have to take responsibility and say ‘Enough’? Or unless, we are just going to give it over,” he questioned, noting that his book serves as his own declaration of “Enough.”

“I’m one of those people. I wrote a book. I’m doing what I can daily. I’m telling people if they want to listen to it, they can listen to it,” he concluded.
