Thursday's episode of The View was undoubtedly one for the books, especially after the conversation between Behar and Haines. On account of 'National Intern Day' earlier last week, each host recalled their experiences as interns. The discussion was quite nostalgic for each of them as they fondly recollected memories that have certainly taught them much and propelled them in their respective careers, per The Sun.
It was Whoopi Goldberg who initiated the conversation about the infamous yet notable holiday. After which each began sharing in order. Alyssa Farah Griffin mentioned that she once interned at the prestigious Capitol Hill. Guest Host Rachel Lindsay [Sunny Hostin's substitute] revealed that she interned at the birthplace of legendary Basketball players - the NBA.
When it was Joy Behar's turn to talk about her plethora of experiences, she specifically mentioned working at a mental hospital. "I worked at a mental hospital," confessed Behar. The audience and panel giggled in unison. Before Behar could continue, Haines interrupted with a witty statement of her own. "It doesn't count if you were a patient Joy!" she said with a snark.
Haines then continued to elaborate on her own story of interning while in college. The host revealed that because there was a lack of opportunities in her town. During summer, she'd often take up a job of waitressing or babysitting to help settle bills. As soon as Haines concluded, a sweet moment followed that left audience members in awe.
To honor their beloved interns who work passionately with much determination, Goldberg invited The View interns on stage. The interns - Edna, Cam, and Sam were found to be full of pride and joy as they were invited on stage. They were met with cheers of encouragement and love from the audience and the hosts who welcomed them.
Behar didn't seem to take Haines' comment that seriously as she responded with a smile on her face and moved on from the conversation. The renowned author had previously revealed working at the said institute for an interview with TIME Magazine. Joel Stein recorded the interview on April 26, 1999. In the interview, Behar was primarily asked about her book after which the conversation shifted to her work experience.
Upon being asked about her experience as an English teacher, Behar mentioned that she had "lots of jobs". She confessed, "I worked at a mental facility for a while," to which Stein curtly asked "How was that?" Behar pondered over it for a bit. Then upon careful recollection, ironically concluded, "Crazy".
