Hailie said she watched the video in its entirety.
"The 'Somebody Save Me' music video is out… I watched it in entirety, and I don't think I can do it again. I definitely cried," she said, adding that she gets emotional every time she hears it. "I audibly sobbed," she went on about the song, along with "Temporary."
Eminem offered her an apology in the video.
In the "Somebody Save Me" video, Eminem apologized to Hailie and his other children from an alternate reality where he hadn't survived his 2007 drug overdose.
"Another pill as I start to spiral/Message to my daughters/I don't even deserve the father title," the lyrics read in part. "Hailie, I'm so sorry/I know I wasn't there for your first guitar recital/Didn't walk you down the aisle/Missed the birth of your first child/Your first podcast, lookin' down, sweetie/I'm so proud of how you turned out/Sorry that I chose drugs and put 'em above you."

Hailie believes her parents did a good job.
"I feel like my parents did such a good job growing up where I didn't realize how bad things were," Hailie said. "But now like as in adult in hindsight it's so scary to think about and I think that's why I get emotional so much, just thinking that that could have happened."
She went on to encourage those who have experienced loss due to addiction.
The podcast host went on to offer encouragement to those who have experienced loss because of addiction. "I will say like if you've ever lost an addict or loved one, I feel for you and, yeah that's how I feel about it," Hailie said as she got visibly emotional, adding that as she gets older she can't listen to a lot of her dad's songs without getting emotional.
Fans responded to the podcast.
"I'm crying And I literally bawled my eyes out to both songs. It actually helped me deal with some grief I've been dealing with though, especially Temporary," one person commented.
"I lost my dad a couple years ago to his addiction. The song 'somebody save me' hits me hard because I picture him," another person wrote. "I’m glad your dad was able to pull though for you and everybody else, the world needs him right now. Thank you guys for what you contribute."
