This whole thing is fucking dumb on both sides. I'm not sure why she is defending so much. I've heard Jack on a few podcasts taking jokes/comments about it in stride, so clearly he's not offended despite your weak attempt at a derisive Jeff Foxworthy reference.
On the other side, why does it matter now. The leg has been upped for these kids, that's already done. It's done in every industry the world over (born into a family farm? You're a nepo baby). Nothing to do now but judge their actual work product to see if the success is somewhat warranted. Jack has a pretty good track record of his own and he is humble about it. That's good enough for me compared to many other nepo babies.
Oh no some rando didn't like my Jeff Foxworthy joke!
Good rebuttal.
