Pfizer Sent Shep Smith a Box of Chapstick and He Immediately Told Chris Wallace About It

Last week, on election day, we reported on a wonderful conversation between Shep Smith and Chris Wallace over what the latter deemed a “chapstick fetish” of the former. Smith picked up his chapstick and responded, “Fetish?! Do you know what that means?”

Well, as we obviously should have expected, that wasn’t the end of it. It turns out that Pfizer sent Smith an entire box of chapstick after seeing that.

Smith immediately made sure he told Wallace about it.

As they wound down their chat on Shepard Smith Reporting, Smith told Wallace, “Guess what came in the mail today…”

A somewhat amused Wallace asked, “Do you think any normal person, Shep, would be that excited about getting chapstick?”

Smith countered, “I can’t suck up to you properly without the chapstick, Chris.”

He also told Wallace that he’s the weird one for making it sound “fetishy” in the first place.

Between the chapstick and the mysterious foam, this must have been the best day ever for Smith.

You can and must watch this banter above, via Fox News.
