"I said, 'Lucy, I'm calling you because, to my knowledge, there has never been a situation besides mine except yours,'" Cher said. "Oh, like a very public duo that was breaking up, she left Desi," Hoda replied.

Today forgot to bleep it, Hoda proceeds to lose it, and Cher says, "Well, you said I could [say it]!"
