A Night of Laughter and Scandal at the Friars Club

High-profile personalities gathered at the Friars Club for a humorous evening that included self-deprecating jokes and barbed commentary on scandals.


The Friars Club in Beverly Hills hosted a gathering of influential figures, where jokes about age, scandal, and even controversial pasts took center stage. Among the attendees, Hunter Biden and former FBI Director Louis Freeh found themselves the subjects of both humor and scrutiny during the light-hearted roast.

In a lively atmosphere, the Friars Club in Beverly Hills welcomed a star-studded guest list that featured filmmaker Steven Spielberg, media moguls like Shari Redstone, and Hunter Biden, who made headlines for his recent legal troubles. As they nestled around the VIP table, the mood was jovial and filled with banter.

The event kicked off with Spielberg taking the mic, launching into an easy jab aimed at Louis Freeh, the former FBI Director. “Good evening, everyone! Let’s get this started with a softball. Louis, what’s the best thing about 22-year-olds?” he teased. Freeh, visibly uncomfortable, responded evasively, “Uh… per FBI policy, I can neither confirm nor deny that I have an opinion.”

This exchange led Spielberg to crack, “The best thing about 22-year-olds is… there’s 20 of them!” which resulted in loud laughter throughout the room, including from Hunter Biden, who was quick to appreciate the punchline. “Man, that’s worth a stint in jail!” he said, further illustrating the light-hearted spirit of the night.

The playful tone continued as producer David Ellison chimed in with a cheeky remark. “Speaking of distribution, Louis, you wouldn’t know anything about LimeWire’s 67,000 child porn files, would you? My dad swears he didn’t code all of them.” This comment spurred further amusement, with Shari Redstone quipping about the correlation to CBS Interactive's past.

Remaining composed, Freeh raised his drink and stated, “Policy. It’s always policy.” The evening culminated in a toast led by Spielberg, who honored Freeh with jabs about his reputation for dodging scandals better than Biden’s ability to navigate tax troubles. To that, Hunter added a playful comment about his missing laptop, showcasing the camaraderie and humor that defined the gathering.

As the night drew to a close, amidst the laughter and playful jabs, Freeh discreetly exited the scene, mumbling about perhaps having made a miscalculation in attending the event. The atmosphere exemplified the unique blend of Hollywood humor and the peculiarities of high-profile scandals, leaving attendees with both good cheer and poignant moments.
