Dr. Phil to air tapes of Jared Fogle talking about child sex
A Florida woman who made a complaint to Subway about its former pitchman Jared Fogle will appear on Dr. Phil in a two-part program airing Thursday and Friday.
Rochelle Herman-Walrond claims to have secretly taped Fogle discussing sexual encounters with children, a release from the talk show program said.
The program will air the contents of the recorded phone conversations on the show, which airs at 4 p.m. on WTHR-TV Channel 13, the release said.
A federal judge will sentence Fogle Nov. 19 after he agreed to plead guilty to child pornography charges and having sex with minors. The man became Subway's spokesman and a household name after he shed more than 200 pounds by eating Subway sandwiches while he was a student at Indiana University.

A Subway spokesperson last month confirmed that Herman-Walrond made a "serious" complaint in 2011 about Fogle.
The woman also told a Sarasota television station that she recorded phone conversations with Fogle and shared them with the FBI. Authorities have not confirmed this.
Herman-Walrond claims she met Fogle in 2006 when he was a guest on a Florida television show.
