Jost asked Sherman how he was coping with Peanut’s death, which led him to describe how difficult it was “being in the media spotlight.”

Sherman recalled the day he and Peanut first met and shared that he was minding his own business while “fluttering” by a tree.

Jost noted that she “looked a little crazy,” which caused him to freak out and ask, “Is she crazy?” It caused him to shout. Where is it?” before shaking violently again with excitement.

When asked by Jost to share more information about Peanut’s death, Sherman explained: “The cops raided our house and then Peanut bit someone like a fucking hero.”

“Anyway, then they kidnapped Peanut and cut off his head to test for rabies, which is actually how they test for rabies, Colin,” Sherman added.

Jost attempted to comfort Sherman throughout his time of mourning, expressing hope that he could find closure and move on after Peanut’s death.

“Oh, what life? “I’m a four-year widow, Colin,” Sherman said. “I’m so old the only person who wants to hit him is Jake Paul.”

After Sherman said he couldn’t take it anymore and “went crazy,” he asked himself, “Is he crazy?” he replied. Where is he?” This dragged him into another excitement.
