Candace Owens Shares Alleged Audio of Erika Kirk Calling Charlie’s Memorial ‘Event of the Century’

Erika Kirk was seemingly thrilled with how the memorial for her late husband, Charlie Kirk, turned out — and Candace Owens had some opinions on the matter.

On the Tuesday, January 27, episode of her eponymous podcast, Owens, 36, shared an alleged leaked phone call between the Turning Point USA CEO, 37, and her team discussing the conservative activist’s public memorial service, which took place at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, in September.

“Wow, I don’t even know where to begin,” Erika said in the alleged audio. “The fact that we were able to pull off an event of the century is just insane. We had over 275,000 people that attended and stadium overflow.”

“And then you have, is it 100 million?” she asked someone whose response was inaudible. “That heard the gospel and all about Charlie and all about everything that you guys do and the hard work of Turning Point USA is insane.”

Erika went on to gush about how much merchandise TPUSA sold at the event honoring Charlie, who was shot and killed while speaking at Utah Valley University on September 10.

“I think we’re at like 200,000 for merch sales. Don’t quote me on that, cause I think it just keeps like bumping up like crazy,” the mom of two remarked. “I just wanted to say a huge, huge thank you to the events team, the development team, the graphic design team, and the production team, just phenomenal.”

“Honestly, a lot of the staff that worked on the memorial — they had 20-hour days for a week during the time of us grieving the loss of my husband,” she added. “And honestly, I know several staff who didn’t even sleep. Again, you guys are breathing angels, and I’m so grateful for all of you.”

Owens shared her take on the audio clip describing “the general tone” and the “laughter” as “off-putting.”

“We are not even two weeks after watching your husband be assassinated. We’re talking about numbers and metrics that have been hit,” Owens said about Erika. “The overall mood of this call is extraordinarily upbeat; it’s extraordinarily happy.”

As the National Enquirer previously reported, Owens and Erika had a face to face meeting in December amid tension as the political commentator has questioned the circumstances surrounding Charlie’s death.
