Hey, Chicks in the Office listeners.

Prime members can listen ad free on Amazon Music.
This is state of emergency.
What's up, everyone?
It's Chicks in the Office with Rian Fran, giving you that Friday energy on a Friday.
You might have to lower the vocal, the vocal.
You might have to lower the volume of that one.
It will be right in everybody's years.
It's a good way to start Friday.
Yeah, it's a good way to wake everybody up, ready for the week.
weekend. It's a great day. It's a great week. I've been up since the crack of freaking dawn today
because I woke up at like 6.30. I couldn't fall back asleep and I just got my day started instead
of laying in bed like I usually would. Yeah. Because I don't have to get up that early,
thankfully. I got up and I just started on with my day. I got ready. I made breakfast. I was up
Adam. Proud of you. That sounds
lovely. It was lovely. 630
is still a little too early for me. I know there's
plenty of people and I'm sure
the listeners are up
early, you got things to do.
I am not a
morning person. I am usually
not either, so I took advantage of that
today. The feeling of, wow,
I don't want to go back to sleep. Why
not just get out of bed? And I hope that
inspires some of you today. Anyways,
big things
this week, all right? Lots of
Lots of chatter, lots of things going on.
We may or may not be going to the finale of The Bachelor on Monday.
That is still in the works.
By the time you listen to this, we'll know.
Hopefully.
Hopefully.
We'll know if we're going or not.
But we're working on that.
And besides that, how has everybody else's day going?
Pretty good.
I've had a, this felt like a really long week, but a good week.
I think it's coming off of last week.
So busy.
This week was way calmer.
So in last week it's like, go, go, go.
Next thing, next thing.
This has just been more of a slow, slow week.
Like my Tuesday felt like a Thursday.
Oh.
But now we're at the end of the week.
We're at the end of the week.
And we are ending our week in the best way possible with Duncan.
You guys know that we love Duncan.
Duncan is the presenting sponsor of Chicks in the Office.
And we are so excited to share with you.
guys a great deal if you get a medium or large coffee you can get one dollar donut i cannot refrain
and i eat the donuts before we start the show because they're just too dang good yeah glazed
donut right in front of my face one of my favorites chocolate icing donut pink used to be my favorite
when i was a kid i still love it but i've swayed to chocolate frosted um i actually i as a kid
i was a chocolate glazed chocolate glaze chocolate is really interesting chocolate always chocolate
glazed and i don't discriminate against any of my donuts so i'll have them all um
But there's great deals going on and as well as breakfast deals.
Absolutely.
You can do the $1.
Donut like we said or $2 stuffed bagel mini or $3 sausage egg and cheese.
Just add it right to your coffee.
It's that easy when you go on your Dunkin Run.
So guys, it's time for a $1, $2 or $3 Dunkin Run.
This is a limited time offer with the purchase of medium or larger coffee,
exclusions, and terms apply participation may vary.
So make sure you are having your Dunkin and enjoying your meal.
with it, whatever it is a donut or maybe
something savory, they have it all.
You have caused absolute pandemonium
in Bachelor Nation.
The
Bachelor Nation is lit on fire
and you threw the, you poured
the gasoline and then threw the match
and you've just been laughing.
It is quite literally the
gif of
he fledger as the Joker when he leaves
the hospital and he lights it on fire and he just
walks away and he's like, what do?
And you guys warn me about this? You were like,
You don't realize Rhea how seriously they take it.
I didn't realize how seriously they take it.
I still don't care.
I still find it to be humorous.
I still find it to be entertaining.
And that is going to cause people to despise me.
And I really don't care about that.
Because I have made it very clear that I don't take the bachelor too seriously.
And that's probably why I'm being very laxadaisy is the word.
Lachadaisical.
Lacksadaisy is a short term.
the short for lackadaisical?
You never heard someone say laxie daisy?
Never.
Look it up.
Never.
Because I'm telling you that's a thing.
Sarah, can you look that up?
I've never.
If you just said that, I wouldn't like second guess it.
I've never.
Laxadaisal.
Yeah.
It's just being like, I'm in laxadaisical.
La de da.
La de da.
That's how I've been treating this is latida.
I know this information.
Now, it has gotten
the
Bachelor's spoil, like reality
Steve is apparently not how I didn't listen
to the podcast. I was trying to
but like I was trying to skim to find it
and that I got frustrated and I just was like
all right whatever. He's like staying your lane.
Yeah, he's like, he thinks reality Ria's coming through
and I can promise.
Yeah, I can promise I do not want to be the spoiler girl.
You don't want to be in the spoiler game. I don't want to be in the spoiler game.
I realize I have entered the spoiler game
at my own risk and I'm not complaining.
I have this information that everybody wants.
Everybody wants this information.
And I will agree with the people that are getting mad at me.
They're like, there's nothing more annoying when somebody says I have information and I can't share it.
I'm not sharing it, not because I am getting joy out of not sharing it.
I would love to share it with the world.
I've been trying to tell you for a week.
I've been trying to tell Trent and Kelly for a week.
You guys have been shushing me off.
Yeah. Some chicks in the office listeners want to hear it. Some don't.
I also don't want to piss off ABC.
We want to go to the finale. We have now...
I've just been told, let's hold off until Monday.
Yeah, that checks out because if they want to invite us to the finale, they don't want Ria potentially spoiling your show.
A massive, something massive to have...
My understanding is like Monday's show, Monday's Chixney Office show.
Like, if you want to talk about it on Monday show, which would still come out before the bathroom.
Right.
We'll see.
But as of now, I can't tell this information.
I've just, and I did not know, listen, I tweeted yesterday about this information.
To be clearly, I'm at the point where I'm going to crack because now it's driving me and not necessarily driving me insane of not knowing.
It's just like, now I'm just getting annoyed.
Like I'm just like, I know, I'm being very annoying.
I'm very aware.
I'm being obnoxious.
I'm being annoying.
I'm, you know, loving that people are going crazy over this.
If I was in their position, I would not be loving me.
So I get it.
I tweeted about this information yesterday,
which is then why Robert Mills reached out
and was like, can we get you guys come in the finale?
So he is aware that I have this information
that I am not sharing and invited us to the finale.
And now I don't want to ruin Fran, Kelly, and Trent.
Chances of going to the finale.
All right, let's hear what the spoiler is.
when they are dying to get to
imagine Jesse Palmer goes
takes the microphone and he just goes
All right we have somebody in the audience
With some important information
You break it
Please stand up and tell us all what you've heard
And then they just booing me and tell me it's wrong
There's a Trent Kelly myself
We're on the same page where if this does happen
And what you know is addressed during the live after show
We want a authentic real
In the moment
potentially on camera reaction
to what it is.
So we are holding out
even though it is fucking ridiculous.
And so if
the finale, if we'd never got invited to the finale,
if Robert Mills never stepped in.
Yeah, you would have said it already.
I think this is awesome strategy by him to not get it out.
I mean, this is really just like selfishly
for the sake of ourselves
and this show now we're not.
I'm being incredibly selfish now.
This is now turned into a business opportunity.
I can't
I can't say it now
Straight up I can't say it now
Everybody wants to go to the finale
It's a really cool experience
Mills knows I have this information
It's not, it's not like ABCS
Jed talks
I am now dead
But they haven't said to me
Hey you don't say it
I am just out of the kindness of my heart
We're not saying it
For the sake of
They were nice enough to invite us
I don't want to be an asshole
And spoil the show
Yeah
I do understand that is incredibly annoying now
I am fully aware.
I am very annoying.
And everyone will hate me.
And I can live with that.
T-minus three days, you know.
Everyone can hold on a little bit longer.
This may not even be true.
This might not even be true.
Which, to be-com.
If this isn't true, I want you the next tricks in the office episode.
You have to sit in this corner.
I'm going to get you a dunce cap.
Yeah.
You're going to do the whole episode.
I need a different punishment than that
but I will take a punishment
Okay, yeah
Come up with, come up
If there's no spoiler
There's no spoiler
If what I, because no one knows it
If that does not happen
Or something around that effect
Does not happen
You can come up with the punishment
With Kelly and Trent
And whatever
And the fans can vote
On what the punishment is
And I will take the punishment
And I apologize
And I am sorry that I can't give the information
I am sorry
I thought I was gonna tell it
On the podcast
The plan
was that I was going to tell it on the podcast.
Fran was going to leave the room
and I was going to say it
and then it was going to be like, spoiler, spoiler, spoiler.
We were posted on, checks in the office, Instagram,
major spoiler alert,
and I would end up telling you guys
what the information is.
Now that the finale's in the mix,
I can't ruin that for my peers
and myself.
And so I apologize, I am sorry.
You heard it from me.
You heard it from my mouth.
I am sorry.
It will be fun to see if it's true.
It will be fun to see.
I will say this.
I have done digging.
I have
messaged, I will say this
This is not giving anything away
I have messaged the person
Who
This is mainly about
Yes
I was going to say maybe don't
Say the second part
Because people could do
Digging
Yeah, yeah yeah
Don't give any hints
All right I won't say anything else
You know
Whoever I messaged
Do not respond
Yeah
So
So interpret that however you want to interpret it.
And now
we're all, guys,
if you're in the boat with me, you don't want to be
spoiled. It's
been a tough few days.
And we will get through this. We will make it to Monday.
You will make it. I promise you guys will make it to Monday.
We will make it to Monday. I wish I wasn't this
monster that I am now. And
I've been low-key fighting with the person who sent this to me
because I'm like, are you trolling me?
Yeah. I'm message this person
7.30 a.m. this morning because
Rachel Kirkconnell
DM me. And she was like
what is happening? And I told her
and she was like
they have to be trolling you and I was like
no, I really
I don't think so.
And I messes the person I said are you
trolling me? And
she's like why would I be
trolled? And I've done I've looked at this
girl. She seems like a very sweet person.
I don't think you ask, why me? Why did you
give this information to me?
Yeah. Why me? You've put such a burden
on me.
Yeah, you picked the wrong.
The girl who sent this DM, you picked the wrong person.
You picked the wrong person.
Wrong person.
Don't go sending it to reality Steve, though, because I like that he's squirming.
I like that he's squirmy Steve right now.
Oh, man.
He's like, I don't know what it is.
He's all upset.
He's going to be, although whatever, he'll be.
He lost out on a scoop of the century.
He'll be fucking thrilled if this just doesn't happen, though.
Like, he'll be sitting on his laptop, typing up his, his reports, and
That chick over at barstool, she knows nothing.
And you know what?
That's fine because he is the spoiler king.
He knows what he's doing.
I am shocked he doesn't have this information, which is why.
Which honestly makes me nervous.
It makes me very nervous that he wouldn't have it and you would.
It's really what it comes down to.
Makes me very nervous that it has not been sent to him.
It's crazy.
Everything is sent to him.
Everything is sent to him.
is sent to him. Why am I? I don't know. Why, God? Why have you trusted this upon me?
Anyways, I understand how annoying this whole 20 minutes has been. Yeah. I understand I'm annoying
obnoxious. Everybody wants me to fall off the face of the earth. I get it, okay? But you are
enjoying yourself. But goddamn, am I having a good time? You are enjoying yourself. You know? It's like
the devil and the angel on one shoulder. You're you, you are having a good time. You are having a good time. You are
major power trip.
I really am.
It's a power trip.
But not necessarily.
It is a power trip.
Are you nuts?
The way you're like, I got everybody DM and me.
They want to know.
I'm the only one that knows.
I got the power to tell them or not tell them.
I literally called my parents yesterday and I was like, you guys don't understand.
And my dad was like, oh, you got to get the credit.
And I was like, Dad, tell me about it.
But I also, part of me, I hope people do know part of me is joking.
And that's where the problem comes is, is that I,
I like to laugh and joke around about things that people take seriously.
And I know that people take this seriously.
And it is getting on people's nerves because I am making a big, fat joke about it.
All in all, best case scenario would be, I'm wrong.
And everyone can live happily ever after that I have to do a deal with the punishment.
Well, I'll be completely honest.
I think best case scenario is you're right.
But not, I haven't been able to share the information.
No, no.
Best case scenario is this.
this is the thing
everyone knows how much
you hype this up
you know what we should do
if something crazy happens
during the live after show
everyone is going to say
that is what Ria knew
like no one's going to second guess
that that wasn't the information
we should film you like
holding up the newspaper today
with the date you saying what it is
and hold that just to be like
see she knew
you know what I'm saying
just to have that's actually what I do
because otherwise people would be like
whatever happens you'll be like
oh yeah of course you knew
Yeah, just, yeah, that's a good idea.
If they don't believe me, I don't even care.
I'm telling you, I know something fucking big.
If it does happen, I think you don't, don't worry, I think you will get credit.
It's just turned into a funny thing now and it's a lot of pressure.
I know.
I think these aviators just make us look 10 times cooler already.
I agree with you.
Just from throwing them on.
We know the aviators are a classic, classic style.
My personal favorite style of any sunglasses.
But you know how when you have aviators and the nose thing, like it gets stuck in your hair and then you pull it off and messes up your hair.
It's really just a mess.
Well, now Shady Rays has new tangle-free aviators.
So now you can get the classic aviator look without the messy hair because of their custom patent-pending nosepiece that they designed specifically to avoid tangling.
Yes, if you're watching on YouTube, you can see how easy it is to take on.
and off so you can have the same classic aviator and be able to put them on your head with no problem.
I have a, this is a good test, I have a slicked back hairstyle going right now.
So normally you put these on the top of your head, you'd have to pull them off and it would
ruin your ponytail sale completely.
I'm good to go.
Donzo.
I'm absolutely good to go.
So Shady Ray's tangle-free aviators are one of their hottest sunglasses right now, and they've
already sold out multiple times.
They're back in stock now, including the Kalamesa-Rose Gold,
frame plus Shady Raes offers the most insane protection in all of eyewear.
Every pair of sunglasses is backed by lost or broken, loss and broken replacements.
Lose or break your pair.
Even on day one, they will send you a brand new pair.
No questions asked.
So crazy, all protection program details can be found at Shaddyraise.com.
So exclusively for our listeners, Shady Raise is giving out their best deal of the season.
Head to ShadyRase.com slash tanglefree and use code chicks for 30% off their best
selling Tanglefree Aviator and much more.
So say before they sell out and try for yourself.
The shades rated five stars by over 250,000 people.
I had to stop myself yesterday because I was like really, I'm just going to shut up.
I'm just going to shut the fuck up because I know that's what people want.
I'm just going to shut my dirty little hamster mouth.
That's Mike the situation would say.
I've got myself into some hairy situations in the past week.
And this is why we do the job.
and everyone's focused on this
Barso drama and I'm over here
sweating out.
Bachelor nation.
You're deep in Bachelor nation.
I have, I haven't even been focused.
I have no time for this office.
No.
I mean, deep muddy waters.
Yep.
With bachelor nation.
And a week ago,
I was asking to be off the show.
You were, yeah.
And now I'm sucked in.
I go from one extreme to the next.
You can't handle me.
I think we're all still high from your nail
I actually think we are
I actually think we are
Backstory
Backstory that's
I'm so light laughing gas
Backstory
Rhea pulled off a nail when we were filming trivia
She went and got
Conballs and acetone and tinfoil
To do a full-blown
UV gel removal on every single nail
It took her regular gel
Aren't those the same thing?
No it's not
I usually get UV.
This is where the problem came in.
Is UV gel not just the gel that you put under?
No.
Different. UV gel is like, it has the pink thing.
Okay.
So there's different names.
I call that cow gel.
Okay.
Yeah.
I don't really, I could be wrong.
I don't know.
Anyway, you just had a gel manicure.
Anyway, I usually have.
It took you an hour to take it off.
I usually have a specific manicure that I get, okay?
For two years now I have gotten the same manicure.
Last time I went to go get my nails done.
They told me they had time.
for me. I showed up. Little Missy says she doesn't have time for me anymore. So I say, you have time to do
anything? You got to have time to do anything on these nails? Yeah. Any color whatsoever. She's like,
we could do a regular gel manicure, but we can't do the one that you want, the one that you've been
getting for two years straight now. Yep. So, freaking, now I haven't been going to this specific place
for two years. I want that. I just like this, I can't, I need the name of it. Whatever. So, I get
It's just unnecessary background
To the fact that you were just
All the people need to know
Is that you took off your gel manicure
I was soaking my fingers in acetone
For a long time
In this tiny room
And now I'm sweating profusely
I'm high
I started coughing I felt like I was swallowing it
I'm high off acetone
I'm sweating
I'm a monster
I'm a monster to the bachelor nation
I just thought no one going to turn our volume down
I'm going to
I'm a menace to society
and you got nasty
fucking nails
nasty fucking fingernails and I am
disgusting I am a disgusting
human being
I am gross in my own skin right now
I'm disgusted
I'm sweating
my legs are dry
I have the driest legs you've ever seen
right now
you're scaly
I'm scaly
I didn't moisturize after my shower this morning
and now I'm fucking dry here
I'm dry there
I'm dry everywhere.
I did put
moisturizer on.
Okay.
Got you beat there.
All right.
Let's fucking talk about some topics.
Let's get into the show, babes.
Yeah.
Let's do it.
I'm losing my mind.
And now I have a cold.
Yeah, we're back.
I know.
I'm telling you.
Astic Jones.
Yeah, Asit Jones just go into our brains.
Anyways.
Let's talk about some topics.
I can't believe we're about to like go.
Not weekly watching.
Watch report, but like, more serious.
One more serious topic.
I'm high off of nail polish.
Okay.
This is like when you were a kid and you like were around glue or like Sharpies or the
and you're like, oh, I'm high with your friends.
Anyways.
All right.
Weekly watch report.
TikTok, maybe banned.
Yeah.
MGK and Megan Fox break.
And for the next.
19th time in a row.
Vanderpump update.
Yeah.
So let's get into it.
Oh, and we have one more thing.
I love how I forget one more thing because it's funny because it's funny because it's one more thing.
I will say I want to, I will like to issue an apology to our listeners on the fact that, God, it has been a slow last couple of weeks in the pop culture world.
We were just having a conversation with Devin about this, that there's just nothing.
Vanderpump has taken over everything.
It's the only, I thought like by now it would kind of die down, but there hasn't been anything.
crazy or newer that I was just about to say
there hasn't been anything crazier or new that has come up
and so we're just cycling through it and Devin was joking that there's just nothing
going on and Devin sent us a tweet of a headline that reads
Chris Martin revealed in a recent podcast that Beyonce revealed to him
her knee hurts her from performing
breaking news Beyonce her knee bothers her sometimes
Devin just text me and said it's absolutely insane
I think you need to write the spoiler in an envelope and then open it on cutting stems.
I said that's a great idea.
That is a good idea.
We should write it now.
I should write it on this piece of paper.
Well, wait until we finish.
Well, I want to do it live.
I know, but.
So people know that it's happening.
Then I got to close my eyes.
You don't just don't peek.
Cheater.
I can't not peek.
I can't not peek.
I'm going to take the notebook.
And I can't not peek.
I'm going to write it live.
So people know the day and time in which this is being written.
How are we going to fill this dead air time?
Should I start talking about something?
It is Thursday?
Because you can't read it out loud.
Oh yeah, I can't read it out loud.
Just cut.
Just cut it.
All right.
I'm done.
Bachelor, spoiler, 321 p.m. Thursday, March 23rd.
Fold it up.
I'm handing it off to Sarah, who has been told the information already.
We're going to put in an envelope and we will bring that to cutting stems.
I will take pictures of those.
it on the plane.
It don't make its way.
I would also like to say it, Flat Stanley.
It is the new Flat Stanley.
I would also like to say, and this has nothing to do with, like, what the spoiler is,
because it's public.
But all three top, all three final ladies posted the same Instagram at like the same time,
all three of them with the same picture.
So take that as you will.
But let's do the weekly watch report.
Let's get into the weekly watch report.

do you guys know where the sound of a snap comes from
yeah hitting the
hitting the yeah when I first time that I was like oh my god
Marty actually asked me that the other day
he said do you know where the sound of snap comes from
I said, yeah, when it hits your palm
and he goes, ah, I didn't know that.
He thought he got you.
Yeah, he was like, I just found that out.
I watched the first episode of How I Met Your Father
and something I've never watched.
D.
Yeah.
I was just about to say, fun fact,
when my friends from college is a writer on that show.
Oh, that's cool.
Yeah.
Cool.
Some of the worst jokes I've ever heard.
Yeah.
I was going to say,
Herd is not that funny
It was...
Not the only writer
I'm sure her episode was the better one
Yeah very cool job
I'm kidding
But also
Yeah I mean it
Very cool job
Very cool job
D
Watch one episode
I really was trying to get like
Another sitcom in my life
Yeah yeah yeah
And I watched one episode
Why don't you watch Appet Elementary
Excuse me
Okay okay okay
Excuse me
Did I finish my weekly watchboard
Did I finish my weekly watch a board
I don't know how many sitcoms
you tried out this week
tried a few.
Okay.
That leads me to
Abed out of Adventure.
Yeah.
Three episodes.
Okay.
Liked it a lot better
than how I met your father.
I'll tell you that much.
Yeah.
There was one joke in the first episode
How I Met Your Father
that
that left me pretty floored.
Wait, were you at How I Met Your Mother fan?
One of my parents watched when I was younger,
I would watch with them.
I never watched him getting mad.
I liked it.
I did.
I only watched it one time
all the way through like a binge.
because I had never seen it.
I did kind of the situation where, like, people don't watch something,
and then they know the final season is coming, so they binge.
That's what I did with How I Met Your Mother.
Like, I didn't watch, but I binged all of it so that I could watch the final season when it was on TV.
The jokes were a lot raunchier and funnier and how I met your mother.
That seems to be the case for a lot of them.
How I met your father.
I'm trying to think of the one...
Oh, oh, Hillary Duff was like...
I do love Hillary Duff.
No, and I love Hillary Duff too, but...
Let me tell you.
She was like, this was right in the beginning of the episode, too.
I was surprised that it even got a second season.
Her phone battery was dead and she was getting in the car and she was like, I need to charge my phone.
It's dying.
Feed me!
And I was like, oh, no.
It sounds like a sound effect you would make.
I know.
Feed me.
Whoa.
In a sitcom setting, didn't it.
Casual conversation.
that just comes out
I'm not trying to get
like the whole room to erupt
I did have that thought
I did have that thought
that watch comes like that's
definitely
that is actually her goal
anytime she says anything is to get
the whole room to erupt
if you did that and no one said anything
let me tell you I had that exact thought
after I watched that and made fun of that joke
I was like that is something I would say
but anyways
you're talking about how funny it is
What did you think of Abbott Elementary?
Okay, so how am I your father gets a D?
Yeah.
I will never watch that show ever again.
Abid Elementary, I'm going to give.
I liked it.
I didn't love it.
I'm still only three episodes deep.
I imagine it gets funnier and better as the characters develop.
I am a big proponent of, especially for sitcoms.
Like dramas, I don't get the argument as much when there's like eight episodes in a show.
but for a sitcom that's like on TV
they have so many episodes
that it is like the first
few are always kind of a
you gotta get through them
and maybe how I met your father's like that
but you have to get your footing like
they're trying to get that's
that's what everyone always says
like about parks and rack
like Elaine was yeah exactly like it's like
oh those first episodes
like you
people like just stay with it
because it gets really funny I do feel that
Abbott Elementary I hope you continue to watch
I will I watch
three episodes so I definitely liked it better than how I met your father.
Grading wise, grading wise.
Now these are just the first three episodes
and so I'm torn doing a C plus and a B minus.
I feel like if you give it a B minus
you're giving it based on
future like hopes, you know.
That is why I would be giving it a B minus.
But maybe if I continue to watch it
then I can come back with a higher score.
Be honest.
You got to go with what you're...
I'm going to give it a C plus.
Because I wasn't c-c.
I wasn't laughing really.
I just was watching it for the sake of like,
this is comfortable.
Yeah, yeah.
I feel comfortable watching this.
Yep.
And then I watched a Noah Ives recommendation,
which we both watched.
Noah Ives,
Noah Ives,
this song,
this song,
this show is every,
is being talked about a lot right now.
I did watch the first day came out.
I've only seen it from Noah.
I'm not going to be honest.
I've only heard about it from you.
And I,
the past two nights
before last night,
I was saying Marty, I need to watch you things.
Did you know anything about it before going in?
A little bit.
Did you watch the trailer?
Because the trailer fucking confused me.
I didn't watch the trailer.
All I knew is I saw a TikTok being like,
oh, there's a new show coming out tomorrow with Billy Elish is in it.
And I'm like, oh, okay.
I was like, I have to watch new stuff or else I'm going to get in trouble.
I'm going to get to tension.
Like, I have to mix in some new things here.
So let's just try a couple things.
And if they're bad, it'll be funny to talk about.
then last night I was like what do we watch what do we watch I said oh clicked prime saw it
passed I said swarm no has been talked about this show turn it on we didn't talk for the first 20
minutes um one of the weirdest if not the weirdest show I have ever watched I only watched one
episode I don't think I will continue I am genuinely freaked out it gave me a massive amount of
anxiety. I was incredibly uncomfortable and uneasy throughout the entire episode. And so for that reason,
I'm out. I second a lot of what you're saying. I understand how it could be a great show.
It's just not for me. Yeah. It really freaked me out a lot, especially the ending of the first
episode, which I won't spoil if you're planning on watching. Just really didn't sit right with me,
very uneasy and I am going to give it
I'm going to give it a
D as well
It is a Donald Glover
creation. I'm going to give it a D as well
Um
freaked me out
I gave me
Which which honestly
Symbolism goes to
It is but
violent
Perils creepy dark
I mean I will
The actress that plays
Drey
is phenomenal.
She is really fucking good because she is
terrified. She's really good. She's really good.
The acting is really good. That's why I can see
how it's a great, right. It's a, people may
think it's a great show. Right. Just not for me. I
do not feel comfortable.
It was late at night and I almost wish I watched it in the day
at times. I watched it alone and was like, oh, I would never watch it alone.
I'm so happy I put it on while Marty was
And we didn't speak for 20 minutes.
And I was like, what the fuck is this show?
And he was like, thank God you just said that because I've been sitting here the whole
time wondering why you were like, we need to watch this show.
He's like, I have never seen anything like this.
Some background on the show, like Noah said, it was co-made by Donald Glover.
But it's like a take on Stan culture where the celebrity, Naja, is basically Beyonce.
and
Dre is this massive fan
and
it goes in a direction
you don't really think
it's gonna go in
Yeah, if I didn't see the description
that said like murder in the description
I'd have been so stunned at the like
Yeah, I mean I missed that
I did watch the trailer so I knew
clearly that shit got violent
I saw murder sex violence music
and I thought yes
You know like that's
That sold me when I read the description
Listen, the first episode I had to say, I was like, I don't know, I powered, like, I'll talk about it, but like, I thought it was.
But this is like what I'm saying when, you know, there's a show that is seven episodes.
I think it's eight, yeah, seven or eight episodes.
And they're like 30 minutes.
They're not long.
They're like short episodes.
Yeah, they're pretty short.
If you have to power, like, if you have to power through half.
of a season for that.
Yeah.
Like how,
you're, you know.
Power through,
it's like, yeah.
Like,
if you're not into violence,
not for you.
I watched two.
I watched the first and the second.
And my favorite was the seventh and it's like,
I don't want to give anything away.
But like,
it's cool.
And like,
it is a extremely well-made show.
Did you guys ever watch Atlanta?
The acting is phenomenal.
Uh,
a little,
but not consistently.
And,
like,
I
It was just
It was just
Freaky
It freaked me out
Yeah
I
Yeah
I just
Do you have anything else
Um
No
Okay
I was all new stuff
Yeah that was new stuff
I will give my grade
For Stormman
Oh I watched
I rewatched EasyA
Oh is it
Is it because I said it
The other day
It's no on Netflix
The amount of times
That you made
The set of EasyA
And I said
I watched that yesterday
No no
No no
No no
I know
Every time you said the E-A thing, I said,
oh, I just watched it.
She watched it before you said that.
No one acknowledged it.
Anyways, so I'm saying it now.
I re-watch E-ZA.
I'm not going to grade it.
That movie always hits.
You're not going to grade it?
What does E-ZA get, not an A?
It gets an easy.
More like an easy B?
An easy B.
It probably gets a C for me.
Damn.
I like EZE.
I would give it in the B.
I like it.
I like it.
I like it.
But it's, after re-watching it, I kind of was like,
more of a C.
I liked it.
more when it first came out
Swarm for me
this is where the
this is where the grading is hard
because it's like is it my personal
am I
am I grading on my
personal feelings or am I putting my critics hat on
because putting my critics hat on
it's a good show like I get it
and it's probably
it probably has
what do you think it has on raw and tomatoes
98 right? No I don't think so
it's like I don't think it's that
High. 84. It's an 84. It's at 84. I think I will finish it only because I am, I don't like to start a show and then never finish it. Even if I like take a break from it, I normally come back to it because I'm like, oh, well, I started it. I might as well finish it. So I probably will and they're not long episodes. Yeah. I just looked it up to see the round tomatoes. And the first review is, while I admit
I took a pause after episode four.
I ended up really enjoying it.
The show really deserves to be watched
in all caps in entirety.
Yeah, all right.
I'll give it.
I mean, I probably will finish it.
It really gets tied to get.
How about as a group we finish it?
We can do that.
I just said I would never watch a second of that show ever again.
We could finish it as a group.
Yeah, I would like to be around other people
when I watch it probably.
And Joe's not watching it with me.
He's a scaredy cat.
Maybe we could watch together.
Yeah.
I'll give absolutely I just said as a group
There are only seven episodes
There are seven episodes yeah
Watchers a group I
For me personally like C minus
One and two
Just from a
Maybe maybe that grade will change
If we finish the whole thing
And maybe the grade
Maybe I'll be able to grade the show as a whole
If I finish all of it
I finally watched The Last of Us
Finale took me a while
To get to that last episode
just had a lot going on.
Great.
I've really liked it.
Good thought-provoking.
Really makes you think of like their relationship and Joel's decisions.
And I'll give it a B.
Yeah.
I'll give it a B-plus.
I think that's what I gave it.
I will give that episode of B-plus.
The season as a whole is a solid A-minus.
I agree.
Like that, as the show as a whole, very much enjoyed.
I watched all of the, I had a night where I was by myself and really cruised through a lot of things.
I watched the Malaysian flight documentary.
I watched all of it.
Did you find out who, where are the planets?
No, but you know what?
It was really, I really, I did end up actually really liking it because it was just like, they give so many things.
theories. Maybe I gave up too soon. And there's so much evidence. Like there's just the argument after
each episode they kind of, each episode they kind of like pitch different theories. And after each
theory, I was like, yes, that's definitely what happens. But then the next one, I'd be like,
ooh, that's what happens. So it's just, and everybody has different ideas. It's just like,
it's truly all over the place, which is why you finish it and you're just like, it is crazy.
that we do, we really do not know. And there's all these different theories and thoughts behind what,
behind what happened. But I thought it was, um, I thought it was pretty good. So I'll give it a, I'll give it a,
I'll give it a, I'll give it a, I'll give to be. I went through it pretty quickly, but it had me, I watched all
three in a row, so it had me fairly captivated. I haven't finished Love Island UK yet, which I know is kind of
crazy. I'm like back on par with, after being so up to date, I think I'm, basically,
basically on par with the Hulu episodes.
So for all those that are watching on Hulu, I'm there with you.
I've just kind of gotten lazy, like watching on my computer with the VPN and everything.
I'm like, I'll just wait it out on Hulu now.
So I'm almost done.
We'll see.
And I still hasn't been spoiling.
Who won?
So I'm cruising.
Cruising there.
I don't know if I ever.
I know I said I watched Perfect Match, but I don't know if I ever talked about finishing it.
No.
And I finished it and I would just like my final thoughts to say that was the stupidest show.
That was the, I mean, it was entertaining.
But holy crap was that pointless.
And then I got wrapped into like all the drama that's happened afterwards.
And I was just like, God, that was just for.
It sounds like a good idea in theory.
You're like, oh, all of these people come together for one net for show.
Like it's obviously just all for clout.
Nobody cares.
No relationship lasted.
Like it was just the show came out so late.
They got it.
It's a good.
idea if they can work out some of the kinks and then um shrinking episode nine i will give a b i don't have
too many thoughts on that i'm excited for the for the finale ted lasso one and two episodes one
and two i'll also give a b do those all come out at the same time or it's week no it's week by week
and daze jones and the six episode seven and eight nine and ten are actually out now but i
haven't watched it yet yeah they came out early for some reason i don't know thursday
seven and eight I'll give a
I want to give two different grades
Can I do that?
Yeah
This makes it tough on the graphic, but yeah
Okay well episode seven
Episode seven I would like to give a C
And episode eight I would like to give a B plus
Oh okay
Because I really like
I love the show
I'm obsessed my TikTok is literally entirely
Daisy Jones and I've been listening to the album
So much it's so good
Did you see the TikTok where she
Where she's stitched
Yeah, yeah, I did.
So good.
I mean, ugh.
It just, the episode seven was like really her in Greece with the new guy.
And they just like weirdly changed.
Yeah, that wasn't.
They've weirdly like changed certain things from the book that's like, you know, if you don't have to.
I get it when there's some things that's like, oh, it makes it too complicated for the TV show.
Like, let's just make it, simplify it, make it easier.
Sure.
But it's like, why change that that guy, that the guy that she marries is Irish?
He's Italian in the book.
Like what, like, you know, like there's Italian discrimination.
Why change it?
So it's like, what the hell is the point of this?
But eight, I liked so much better.
You get like the big stage moment that everybody has been talking about.
Everybody is making the Fleetwood Mac.
It's my entire TikTok is just Silver Springs, Fleetwood Mac, people talking about it, dissecting it.
But I also didn't know the connections between the two.
All of this about Fleetwood Mac.
Like, I didn't really know.
I did not either.
I knew that there was drama within Fleetwood Mac.
I always knew that, but I didn't know like the full extent.
Yeah.
And then also just like that scene where they're both on stage, just like exactly what happened.
You know what's crazy though is I watched a TikTok where it was Sam and Riley and they were talking about seeing.
And I hope I'm remembering this correctly, but they were talking about seeing the Silver Springs video that the one that's been going viral.
Again, I mean viral, but it's from a long time ago.
But Sam was like, yeah, it was really crazy to see that, like, basically it kind of seemed like he said that they watched that after they filmed.
No way.
Because they're, like, even the way she's singing at him is.
Believe me, I know.
They're side by sides of the video.
It's so similar.
But it just like, I don't know if that's, I don't know how true or not that is.
But I am thoroughly, thoroughly enjoying it.
And, oh, I put the sweatshirt behind me for a reason.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
They're really cool.
Very cool.
They're very cool.
You guys can buy them.
They're chicks in the office sweatshirts in the font of the show.
I like the color.
And the color's awesome.
It actually all meshes together really, really well.
The prints cool.
It has like little tiny dots in it.
You can see as well.
So you can get this in the store.
Go buy it.
And I really, really like it.
You haven't given Daisy Jones a go yet.
No, I have.
No interest?
I might.
Okay.
I'm I don't know
I'll give credit to my mom
When she called me
And said that she was watching
She reminds me of Fleawood Mac
Yeah
She's not on TikTok
Yeah yeah yeah
You know what's funny
Did you see Lindsay Buckingham's
TikTok account
Did you see what he posted
Where it's like
Everyone's talking about this performance
And he just posted his guitar solo
Yeah
Like nothing to do with all the drama
Yeah
Funny move
Okay that's everything
That's all for me
I watched a lot obviously
Let me just check on
new phone.
You gotta put a case
swing in that phone around all day.
Because I've never had like a white color.
Yeah, like a lot.
Sleak.
I have a case coming on Saturday.
Okay.
Thanks a couple.
It's a long time.
I've been really delicate.
Real delicate.
Okay.
Watch Daisy Jones in the six,
episode seven and eight.
And I'll give that a B like for both them.
Collectively,
you'll average that out.
I pretty much do what you did, but it's two.
Yeah.
So yeah, that the episode of her in Greece,
I'm like,
wanted to see the band together.
Yeah, yeah.
Like, I don't really care about her finding her.
Also, making her friend fly out to Greece.
Yeah.
Like, and not giving any explanation.
If I'm not going into Greece.
Yeah.
Shrinking episode nine, you have a C plus, like, I don't know.
These seem to be hit or miss with me, these episodes.
It's totally fine.
There's no character that I, like, attached to, like, other than I kind of have a crush on the girl.
But, like, there's no one that I'm like, I like, I like, I like, I like,
like this character.
Like they're all kind of like
Jason Zagle?
No, he's kind of like
unlikable to me.
I don't know.
I find him to be unlikable.
It's, you know, I don't know.
I kind of agree with you.
Going through a lot.
There's no character where I'm like,
yeah, like, even Harris.
They're all kind of like annoying.
There's no character where I'm like,
I love this character.
Yeah.
But I find them all to be
likeable.
Oh, I find them to be annoying.
I just like they're kind of annoying and
like.
Well, I mean, I like the show
more than you guys.
I think they're all likable.
The neighbor I love,
the neighbor's husband I love,
Sean I love. Actually, I think the neighbor's husband might be my favorite.
The neighbor's husband's hilarious. I think he's my favorite. He's my favorite. Yeah, that's a good point. The neighbor's husband is very funny. Yeah. When he was like, when she's say, you gotta go. He's like, now that you're retired. He's like, I've worked my entire life. Like, you go. He's like, leave a house. He's my favorite. The other one's kind of annoying me. Okay, yeah. Watch Swarm all of season one. I thought it was fantastic. Fantastic. Fantastic. That's the grade. A minus. Wow. Overall. Yeah. Okay. So.
like after the like okay so episode six i think was my favorite episode by far i don't really want to
well that's because i thought they're eight my second the last episode was my favorite um but even like
the finale like once it ended i was like wow that was a really good show like it just all tied to get like
we'll we'll have a discussion about revisiting yes and i am not watching it alone tonight yeah yeah
yeah great show uh and also i thought yeah billy i
Alex was really good in her episode.
That is my struggle as well.
I do really want to see Billy Island.
I will say.
Paris Jackson was also very good.
She's in the second episode.
Yeah, Paris Jackson too.
And it's funny that she played like her character.
Like the joke that she was like, I'm half black.
Yes.
But yeah, Billy Eilish, that episode, it's not really that violent overall.
How well.
I'm not against the violent, like the violent part of it.
It's, I'm genuinely freaked out.
by the characters involved.
But sometimes good,
that's why I said,
that's why I said,
that's why I said she's so good
because she's just like so free.
She was,
I first saw her in the Deuce,
the James Franco HBO show,
which was pretty good.
She was good in that too.
I watched you,
season four,
episode nine and ten,
and everyone was saying,
like,
you have to watch till the end,
like,
it gets better,
it ties together.
And it was.
It was better than
the episodes before that.
It still wasn't great.
And it still should be ended.
Like,
this show shouldn't continue.
Okay.
Um, C plus.
Okay.
Uh, Boston Strangler, new Kira Knightley movie on Hulu.
Uh, I thought it was really good. Yeah. She was, she did a great job. I'll get that a B plus.
Okay. Okay. Yeah. Um, that's also another one that you probably wouldn't want to watch alone, I would say.
Yeah. Noted. The name Boston Strangler. Sounds like, doesn't scream. I want to watch that.
Uh, I watched this terrible movie called the Reef Stocked. Just one of those movies that pops up.
And I'm like, yeah.
The reef stock?
The reef stocked, like stocked.
Like, you're stocked.
Stocker.
Oh, stocked.
St-A-L-K.
Stalked.
Yeah.
Stocked.
Reef, like, the reef like, like, like, R-E-E-F.
R-E-F.
Yeah, because basically the movie is these girls, they're on, they get stuck in the ocean and there's a shark after them.
Got it.
But it's not.
Classic Tales all the time.
It's, it'll, it's entertaining because it's like a shark is trying to kill these people, but it's a bad movie.
Okay.
Got it.
So, D.
Got it.
D.
I watched the Hulu show accused episode seven and eight, which I think the whole series is pretty interesting.
Each episode is a different story of someone who's accused of something.
And yeah, I'll go that to C plus overall.
It's pretty entertaining.
And then last night I watched this movie from 2010.
I'm specifying that because there's other movies with this name.
It's called The Way Back.
It's not the Ben Affleck movie.
There's another one I think.
It's with Colin Farrell.
There's a bunch of great actors in it.
And it's like a truish story about these prisoners who escape and they have to walk from Siberia to India.
It's a crazy trip.
Great movie.
But I'll give it a B.
Wonderful.
Yeah.
And that's it.
A long less.
Not too long.
Nicely done.
Yeah.
It's your usual.
All right.
That's everything we watched this week.
If you're looking for a fun activity to do with friends, look no further than top golf.
It is so much fun because it's golf.
It's not golf.
It's top golf.
It's its own thing.
I've gone to the one in New Jersey.
It is great.
You can bring whoever you want with you.
Whether you golf or don't, it doesn't matter.
It's always a great time.
You can play games, eat, hang out.
It's just like a great activity for all seasons, any time.
Even if you don't golf, it doesn't matter.
Everyone can play top golf, even if no one in your group can golf.
Top golf is the only place you can play around and then order another or hit a slice and then grab a slice.
It's all the fun of outside, but with the comforts of inside, comfy, heated bays in the winter and cool bays in the summers.
Like I said, all seasons, you can go check out Top golf.
If you have an open Saturday, Sunday coming up, you want to plan a fun activity.
for your friends. Check out top golf. It's golf. It's not golf. It's top golf. Download the app,
book a bay, and come play around. All right, let's get into some topics. Big topic this week.
Big topic. Is that TikTok is on the verge of possibly being banned. The CEO testified in front of
the Congress today, which is not something I saw coming. And I really was unaware of the
this until this week.
They've been very seriously talking about this for a
serious. It's a serious thing that may happen is that TikTok may be banned.
Yeah.
Look, there's been major worries about TikTok
and connection to China and tons of other things.
Like there's really been a lot.
So I can sum it up as best as I can by reading straight from this article.
where the TikTok CEO testified before the House Energy and Commerce Committee for roughly five hours.
The members grilled him for site and cited concerns about privacy for Americans' data,
protections for children online, and TikTok's connection to the Chinese Communist Party.
The hearing was led by committee chair.
They know different representatives that I don't, if you care that much, you can read about it too.
They're specific people.
Congress and President Joe Biden are looking at.
ways to crack down on the app, including a potential U.S. ban, how Speaker Kevin McCarthy told reporters
during the hearing he'd back a ban. CEO said in his opening statement that TikTok is safe,
insecure, and that it shouldn't be banned. He also noted that 150 million people in the U.S. are active
TikTok users, underscoring how entrenched the app has become in the three years Washington
has sought to rein it in. Members appeared skeptical of his testimony with a few warning him
against lying to the committee. Lawmakers were almost universally critical of the app.
So there's basically from all sides, it feels like there's a lot of criticism for it.
They want answers and they feel like TikTok is being extremely vague about where they're storing their information, how much of our data is being used.
And the protection of children.
There were parents that spoke who lost their son to suicide and they feel like TikTok and things that he saw on TikTok were a big stem.
for him.
And so they're really wanting to crack down on this,
help protect children that are on it.
And, you know, we joked when we walked, like,
came in today.
It was like, damn, hot take.
What an hate if TikTok was banned?
But there's like, there's all sides of that, right?
Selfishly as consumers, it's like how much of our day
would we have back if there wasn't TikTok?
And how much do we see and get influenced by and affects us now?
Because like, you know, millions and millions and millions of people are using it.
We're talking about it.
We get a lot of information from it.
And there are so many creators now who are on TikTok, who have made careers out of TikTok,
who have built these followings on TikTok where if TikTok were to be gone,
that's some fucking blood, blood, sweat, and tears of these people.
building it up.
So, you know, of course, it would, of course, hurt creators.
There are other platforms that creators could turn to.
But if they don't have as big of a falling on other platforms, of course, that feels
like having to rebuild a lot.
But from the standpoint of, like, could TikTok be potentially dangerous?
I get it.
I get it too.
I see pros and cons to both in which you already mentioned.
Selfishly, would I care if TikTok was banned?
no, I think, like you said, it would free up some space in the brain of information that we are getting 24-7, whether it's good, whether it's bad.
I'm sure the social social team would really not like a...
They would not like...
No, they wouldn't.
They wouldn't.
That's why I'm not like...
I'm not like...
Yeah, no, I know.
Bleeding the charges of banning TikTok.
But I...
You're out of third-chixing officer fall on TikTok.
Yeah, yeah.
Selfishly, I just wouldn't be too upset.
Yeah.
But I also understand that a lot of people would be very upset.
It is a source.
of entertainment. It is a career for a lot of people. People who have struggled to make money in
other areas have made money doing things on TikTok. People who have built businesses didn't take off
until they were able to put it on TikTok and spread the word. So I see the good use in that. And I think
that's great for those people and would be quite damaging to a lot of people. So I do think there's
pros and cons to each. Do I think it is dangerous? And misinformation can be spread and it can be
depressing and all of those things.
And dangerous for young kids.
But I also think.
You say all the above for any.
Right.
Well, that's what I was,
I was going to lead into that.
That I think social media in general,
I think is dangerous for young kids.
I think Instagram could be the same way.
I mean, the thing is information does not
spread as quickly as it does on TikTok
as it does other places.
But it's kind of the same thing.
Same thing you're going to get on Instagram.
Same thing you're going to get on Twitter.
Same thing you're going to get on Facebook.
All of these social media platforms
are dangerous to an extent for young
kids and just people in general.
And if it was gone, maybe they would just, like, it would just be like, I want to be an Instagram star instead of kids being like, I want to be a TikToker.
And it was that for a little bit.
It was, I want to be an Instagram influencer.
Now it's I want to be a TikTok star.
Yeah, yeah.
So I do think, no matter what, there's going to be a new platform that comes out that is just going to be the same thing.
Social media is forever evolving and there's going to be something new that is dangerous for kids.
Just the internet in general has always been dangerous.
You can just log on and see whatever you want by one wrong click of the button.
Yeah.
So I think that there is so much that goes into this.
Do I think it's actually going to get banned?
No, I don't.
I think they're going to find a way around it in some way.
More when we say it doesn't, if it gets, you know.
They might come up with some kind of legislation to put.
If we say it gets banned and work, we're mainly joking around about it selfishly, like, you know, because we are on it so much and because we do love TikTok.
Like that's where it comes from.
Right.
We do have the House speaker saying he does support a ban of TikTok.
So, you know, he said,
But I also think this happened years ago.
I think the hearing today you see a bipartisan concern here
with what's happening on TikTok,
especially what's happening to the data for Americans.
There's many different ramifications here.
So I think they could come together.
I'd let the committees do their work
and see what the product comes out.
When it gets done, we'd be able to move it.
So I think more realistically, probably they try and come up with some kind of legislation that puts more restrictions on TikTok.
There's always ways around restrictions, right?
It's like, to your age and this age, you can't be on longer for this.
You put it in a different age.
You put it in your parents' age.
People will find a way around restrictions like they do for everything that exists.
So I think it's a very interesting debate.
And I think, like we said, there's pros and cons to both sides.
And let me tell you, like the TikTok, obviously TikTok creators, very upset about this.
Which, rightfully so.
And they were very upset about the whole hearing.
There was plenty of people who were upset because they felt like the CEO wasn't really able to get his full thoughts out without being jumped on by the committee members and everything that was happening.
So if I was somebody who gained all of my following on TikTok or if I was a business that struggled to take off, businesses that get told no on Shark Tank that then take their business to TikTok and they pop.
If I was one of those people, I would be upset.
I'd be like my business was created.
And not even just like, obviously for the creators, it's so important, but just people are
obsessed with TikTok.
Like there's plenty of people.
Like young people on TikTok have lost their shit about this.
Like freaking out that it could actually be.
Like a massive Instagram was all of a sudden like we're going to get rid of Instagram.
No, I get it.
I get it.
But I also think that's why the conversation becomes, this is why it's so on.
healthy.
Yeah.
Like the fact that people will lose their fucking minds and not, not creators, not businesses,
just genuine consumers will lose their minds.
That, I think, is the argument they're making, like, we are.
But I don't think that's crazy.
Like, it's a source of entertainment.
Like, if Netflix was all of a sudden, like, banned, it'd be like, what?
Like, everyone would be outraged, too.
I guess it's just the different, it's a different kind of entertainment.
I guess, but it's like, I'll spend three hours.
Of course, like, this is the thing.
Lawmakers are going to be much more concerned about China's influence on TikTok than the 16-year-old that's on TikTok.
They don't give a fuck about that.
Like, you know what I'm saying?
Like, that's, right.
At the end of the day, they're just like, we want to keep our app.
I don't care of China's taking all of our data.
Like, they don't, that's not a big, like, global picture for,
them like in my opinion i'm sure there are some who are much or educate themselves on it too but it's just
like the lawmakers are coming at it from such a international relations scale not just like hey this is my
this is my favorite app yeah yeah don't fucking take it away from i also think like they're also
they say they're looking at it at it as like harmful the kids and whatever no they're worried
they're worried
about
about China having the information
China having the information
that is it
like at the end of the day
they could throw in all these other fancy things
we're worried about the kids
we're worried about
no no their government is worried strictly
about the Chinese government
they're like that is
that's what it comes down to
so it is what it is
in our personal opinion
I don't think anything is going to happen in the
right quickly
yeah
obviously we acknowledge that it would be
very shitty for a ton of people
if it did go away.
Yeah.
My scream time would be way down though.
Yeah, that's what we're saying.
It's like, but what I personally throw a tantrum.
I think we could make a joke about it, but know that it's serious for some people.
Right, right, right.
Moving on, Megan Fox and MGK are taking a break that has been confirmed.
We kind of knew that was the case.
You know, when Megan Fox posted those things on Instagram and they were going to do this
little back and forth, did MGK cheat on her, this whole thing?
They are taking a break.
Will they get back together?
I assume so.
I'm actually going to go with no.
You don't think so.
I think it's going to be a break that slowly ends it.
Yeah. Yeah. I think they're done.
This is their soft launch of a breakup.
Yeah.
That could be possible.
I'm like, I am firmly on the,
firmly on the side of they will not get back together.
Really? I'm on the side of they will just because they seem to have that energy about them,
like a toxic relationship of breaking up, getting back together,
breaking up, getting back together.
I would have thought that, but now I'm in the camp of they had something
so intense and then now they're just like both over it.
Hmm.
I could be wrong, but that's just where I'm at.
You think the flame burned too bright.
I think it did. I think the twin flame burned too bright.
Too bright and then it just got really dimmed and they're like, yeah, we don't really see it
anymore. Yep. Could be. That's where I fall in that. Interesting. I don't. I mean,
seeing that they were taking a break, obviously not surprising, considering everything that
has been going on recently. So, yeah.
Could they be back together in a week?
They could.
I really, I think this is it.
I respect your opinion and I can't wait to find out.
Yep.
Last topic, before we move on to one more thing.
You guessed it.
You guessed it.
Vanderpump rules.
Raquel was spotted outside of her nail place, spotted, quote-unquote,
TMZ.
Obviously, TMZ is not just walking around the local strip malls.
No.
Unless they're called.
She's straight up called TMZ.
Raquel called TMZ.
Had a little interview outside this nail place.
Didn't really say anything.
A couple of things were discussed.
She had talked on the phone with Ariana.
The conversation obviously did not go well.
She said she would prefer not to repeat the things that Ariana said to her.
She said that the relationship with Sandoval started off as friendship and then led to something else as we could pick up on.
She did have a genuine interest in Schwartz.
I don't know if I buy that at all.
I think she was probably trying to make Sandoval jealous.
she will be at the reunion which is filming right now as we speak
when you guys listen to it will already filmed so I'm sure more details will come out
from people that were on set of the reunion that have details
right now as we know it when Raquel is talking to the group
Sheena has to stay in her trailer when Sheena is out talking to the group
Raquel has to stay in her trailer they cannot be in the same room
because of the court order and the restraining order
that Raquel has placed on Sheena
so the reunion will be the reunion will be
really interesting when we, because everybody
knows you find out details before
it gets aired on TV because producers
they tell someone who tells somebody
the information comes out. Some make all the spoilers.
You never knows. Maybe somebody will message me.
And that's how it goes.
But clearly, Ariana is not going to be
happy with Raquel and it's going to be real
interesting what happens because Lala posted
on her story, like we're
coming for you at Raquel
or we'll see it tomorrow with the
purple devil face.
It's not going to be good for her.
The video really was like, and she's just kind of smiling into the camera.
She's like, I'm going to take responsibility and say sorry.
And like, it's like, I don't think it's going to go that well.
But I don't know.
It's just they've released, Bravo released the seating charts for both scenarios.
Because like you said, Raquel and Sheena can't be on there at the same time.
So when Raquel is on stage, it is.
Andy in the middle
and then to Andy's right
it goes Ariana, Katie,
James Kennedy, Lala.
And then on Andy's left,
Lisa Vanderpump,
Sandvall, Raquel,
Schwartz.
So Sanneval and Raquel
are next to each other, next to
Lisa Vanderpump, and Ariana is across
next to Andy.
And when Sheena's on stage,
Andy's right is still the same
but it goes, Lisa,
the Sandoval Schwartz, Sheen on the end.
So Schwartz and
Schwartz moves when Raquel is on
and then Sheen is on the end.
So do you think Sanneval and Raquel are putting up
United Front? They were spotted visiting Raquel's family
in Arizona, I believe.
They were spotted. I don't know. I guess so.
And Andy allegedly also filmed
individual interviews with
Ariana
Sandoval and
Raquel, I believe.
I hope Andy just gets right
fucking into it. Because remember
with the Housewives of
Beverly Hills reunion that everybody was waiting
for and we had to wait to wait
literally until part three. No.
Get right into it because
nobody cares about the other drama.
We only care about this.
Everybody watching
only cares about this.
Don't make
us wait week to week. We will sit there and watch four hours live. We will sit there and watch
for four hours. Bravo, if you can hear me, we will sit there and watch for four hours straight.
Do not make it a part one, part two week to week. I mean, they will. Don't do it to us.
They will. Let us watch one night in a row. That's impossible. You won't lose the viewership.
He'll never do that. It'll be three parts. It might even be four.
See, by the way, Jackson and Brittany, we're on Watch What Happens Live. And Jacks,
swore on his child's life
that Schwartz knew
about Sandoval and
Raquel's affair for a while.
Not shocking information.
Schwartz has also said that he
knew and told Sandoval
he had to tell Ariana. Yeah. Now here's
my question and I would love
to know people's thoughts on this because I
know what I think about this.
Schwartz
knew that
Sanneval was doing this to
Ariana. You got to tell
your friend, you gotta speak up. You have to tell her Ariana. You have to tell Ariana.
What do you feel, when does it become Schwartz's place to tell Ariana? Or is it never
Schwartz's place? Um, never. That's what I think. I think it is never Schwartz's place to tell
Ariana. I think you have to advise your friend consistently. Yeah. And that's, I think, the most Schwartz
can do is say, you have to tell Ariana. You have to tell Ariana. I think you have to tell Ariana. I think you have to
Ariana, but I don't think Schwartz tells Ariana.
Yeah.
I'm trying to think, I don't know.
I'm trying to think of like a way around that.
Maybe Schwartz just tells other people and then they tell Oriana.
Right.
Like I just, maybe.
I just think him going.
Like, you know what, Katie?
I got something to tell you and you guys.
And you got to tell Ariana.
That I think.
Yeah.
And then it still comes back to him.
Yeah, it does.
But there's something that's different.
It's different when you go straight to the person.
then like I was telling
I had to get it off my chest
you know at the same time
you say to your friend you've put
this information on me that's fucking horrible
what do you expect me to do with it
also you're the one that's fucking up so you're gonna be mad
at me I think it's just more that that should
like affect their friendship more you know
if Sandoval
if Schwartz knew and
was like you have to say something and he didn't
the longer he waited the more I would
be pissed at my friend and be like you're a fucking
bad person yeah I would love to
the conversation between Sandoval and Schwartz
where Shorts is telling Sandoval
and Sandoval's not doing it and Schwartz is like
you're fucking killing me, I'm sitting with this
it's going to fall on me.
But I don't think it's ever
Schwartz's place to go tell Ariana.
Schwartz mentions it to somebody else
and it finds this way to Ariana.
Right. Fine.
But I think like the direct
I'm sure people may disagree with that.
Yeah, no, I would think that would be a pretty
split. But say like
A very split decision.
Like I think people would be like, no, he should tell Ariana immediately.
Schwartz, tell her.
Oh, Schwartz.
Yeah.
But I'm just thinking about like if my friends, like, if one of my best friends was cheating
on her boyfriend or whoever, I would tell her you need to speak up.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
Like, I would consistently be like, you're fucking up.
But I don't think I would go straight to the boyfriend.
Like, I think I would.
I don't think I would be like, that's not my place.
But I'm going to keep telling you that you're fucking wrong.
for this and I think you're being really shitty, but I'm not going to go to your boyfriend and tell
them. I agree. You know, if that's your best friend. I agree. So, I don't know. It's, uh, it's crazy.
It has not died down. No. And it won't. And that's it for topics, but we'll get into one more
thing. Of all things in life, one of the best things has to be just being able to get high

I got one more thing.
It's very quick.
It's just something that I am personally excited about.
And I posted this on my Instagram story.
but smash the TV show, which was on NBC 2012-ish maybe?
I was like, I think I was like just starting high school, starring Catherine McPhee,
is going to be made into a Broadway show, which I am thrilled about.
Fun. Is she going to be in it?
Probably not. I think that they would cast that in a different way.
But did you ever ever see an episode of Smash?
But I like see it, you know what I mean?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It was a great show.
And they did use a lot of Broadway stars.
Megan Hilty, I'm sorry, so I can remember these people's names.
Oh, Deborah Messing was in it.
Les Eulam Jr. was in it.
Angelica Houston.
So some iconic people.
And they are, oh, I actually just saw this guy on Broadway.
Brian Darcy, James.
What did I see him in?
I'm just excited for that.
I think that's a great idea.
and that's really that's really all I got I'm excited for you I was a that was a quick one I have a quick one too
okay have you ever seen the the the the the lagoons that people swim in in Iceland yes and you're like
put the mud on your face and whatever never do I ever want to go in the warm the warm uh
lagoons yeah I never want to go in one ruins your hair apparently if it even touches your hair at all
the mud does just the water itself I'm from has too I thought it's supposed to be like good for you
The face, the mud itself is good for your skin.
The water is terrible for your hair.
Why?
The amount of TikToks...
Is it like sulfur or something in it?
The amount of TikToks I have seen.
I am on Blue Lagoon TikTok.
What happened to your hair?
I saved it.
My guess would be their sulfur.
Blue Lagoon hair damage.
It would be my guess.
Note to girls visiting the Blue Lagoon in Iceland.
Don't get your hair wet.
My hair has taken for washing.
And this person says, so why does this happen?
Has high levels of silic.
Oh, okay.
Makes your hair feel really stiff and dry.
Oh.
Forever?
There's a lot of good minerals in the water as well,
but your hair
will feel really shitty after if you put it in.
And don't ask me why I ended up
on Blue Lagoon TikTok. Yeah, I don't know how you
ended up there. I don't know, maybe they
can't ban TikTok. You wouldn't ever found that out.
Maybe they read in my brain that I have always
been interested in going to these Blue Lagoons.
I have lost an interest in going to
these Blue Lagoon's now.
I'm now
I'm now grossed out
by swimming in these lagoons
Apparently they're yucky
They're not as nice as you think
When you go
People are doing just
Nasty stuff in them
Gross
I know so I'm turned off
I've had some people
I've had some friends go
They say it's quite lovely
Really yeah okay
They're bald now
Real people
Yeah yeah
That I will take the advice from
But you see this will happen
See TikTok
I'm now discussed about
By the Blue Lagoon
Misinformation
Classic TikTok misinformation
They just make everything bad.
Everything that's good turns bad, like dolphins.
I actually just realized that I have one more, one more thing.
That sounds illegal, but it does.
It sounds like I shouldn't be allowed, but this is actually one more, one more thing.
I'm too involved on who Alex Earl is going to date next.
And it seems to be Braxton Berrios.
Really?
Yeah, I just...
What do you mean?
I feel like she's just dating around.
I thought I saw someone when Devin Booker side side.
Yeah.
Braxton Berrios, Taylor Holder.
Yeah.
I'm just saying like that's what my TikTok's talking about right now.
And she made a video the other day about like, she was like, get ready with me to make sushi.
And then she was like, why am I getting ready to make sushi?
Well, like somebody's coming over.
And everyone was like, who's coming over?
Interesting.
People are very invested.
And I would just like to say I am one of them.
And I would also like to know what happened with him and Sophia Coppa.
I would like to know too.
And when it seemed like when they were going to do that breakup, Olivia Copp,
kept posting like I wish we were filming right now
like shit is going down so
who knows maybe they broke up and he went to a dog girl. I wonder if they'll get a second
season of their show. I know their show moved
to HBO Max. They were advising people
to watch on HBO Max because that would be the decider
on whether or not they get renewed. So I wonder
if enough people watch her. I wonder.
You know who obviously like
Lauren, my friend Lauren thought it was
like she's obsessed. She was like
she was, you know when Olivia was posting like go watch on HBO Max?
She was texting like everyone and be like
guys go watch it. You have to watch it.
You have to go watch.
I need this to be renewed.
That's nice.
Very nice.
Big fan, big fan, yeah.
I actually did watch a lot of the show, and I did find it entertaining, so I do hope that they
get a second season.
I want to know what happened with Braxton and Sophia Copo.
I thought they were end game.
So did I.
I thought they were going to be going on a little football, double date trips forever, the two of them
with Christian McCaffery and.
Yeah, I know, I know.
So definitely, keep it a close eye.
All right, that's really my last thing.
All right, that wraps up today's.
