We're back from Vegas, you know, us three. What even happened? Yeah, right? Shit was so crazy this weekend. Can't tell you. You know what they say. Bro. You know, Sin City.

That shit was crazy. Yeah. Just the three of us. A lot of good, some QT quality time. Yeah, honestly, we had some good quality time. I have some notes written down about some great inventions you guys came up with over the weekend. I just am so impressed. Oh, yes.

We're going to be billionaires from these. Yeah, so no one take them. Yeah, so don't take these ideas. Disclamer, please don't take these ideas. No, we'll get into the ideas after we talk about our weekend a little bit on Friday night. You know, we got in, we headed to dinner, and we were sat next to an adult woman who was just throwing up. Yeah, she definitely threw up at the corner of the restaurant. Nice place, too.

Yeah, nice place to go to. She was very, very drunk. It's Vegas for you. And then it was like, and then they served us our food, like our entree. Basically at the same time they brought, like, the hazmat unit out to, like, wipe around their table. So they brought people with mass and the cleaner and everything to like wipe around the sides of the table. And they were extremely close to us eating our food. And what a way to lose your appetite.

Yeah, the steak at the table we said, no thanks. It was like, well, you know, and then they kept looking over. She kept getting up, sitting back down, getting up. Two of her friends seemed to just be like, well, we're going to eat our meat. Like they brought their food out. Like at what point are you like, we got to get out of here as her friend to be like, we should probably leave? I think you have to be kicked out of a restaurant if you throw up. Like, just as a general rule.

Why, 1,000%? To keep letting her go back and forth on the bathroom throwing up. And they're throwing up in the corner of the restaurant. Vegas, I suppose. I think if we said something, they would have kicked her out. Right, but we were right next to it. Could it have been closer. The smell was.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And I was in Vegas early Friday. And it was by myself for most of the day. And I was like, oh, sit by the pool. just like really

I've never done that in Vegas it's a whole different experience because my god is a lounge chair a hot commodity when you're trying to chill in Vegas and you never know what you're going to see people I was by myself so like I didn't have a barrier of people to sit with

and just people are so close like you can't move a lounge chair around you're just right up next to people a lot of different groups Santa was there. There was a man who was, could have been Santa Claus. And he was really leaning into it. Like he kept yelling from the pool like,

ho, ho, ho, ho. He's definitely there to see Metallica. Right. Kept like throwing out Metallica lines. People were going, woo, rock on Santa. I thought you were referring to Joe Mangonella. No. No. No, but he's approaching Santa level as well. We did see. Also, yeah, a couple times. No, and like, kids were freaking out, everybody was taking pictures with him. Santa. With Santa.

Not Joe Mandela. No, no, no, no, with Santa. And then it was also just, it was just so hot and it's so funny when you're just there by yourself because it's groups. There's friends. There's couples. People have their cocktail in the pool. They're hanging out. And I just had to keep walking in and out of the pool because it was so hot.

But I would just like stand in the pool and like do a couple turns. and look around and everybody chatting and be like, all right, and then just like walk back out. A couple twirls. Walk back out. Yeah, you know, you kind of like spin around in the water.

You're like, ooh, this is nice. Right, yeah. And you walk back out. But then I just got it. Then it was like, time was just moving so slow. Before you got there, I had nothing to do.

Yeah. I was so bored. Yeah, yeah. You guys were talking about getting a drink together before I got there. I was so jealous. I couldn't wait.

I was like, I got to. I walked up on you two. I had a nice cocktail together. And it was lovely. Great cocktails. Good, good bonding. Good bonding time for you guys. No, it was, it was a lovely day before we went to that dinner and that lady was throwing up.

We had fun at dinner, but that really was something. Yeah. And then the next day, we had our Rum Haven event at Omnia Day Club, which was awesome. So much fun. Chris Lake was performing. Love Chris Lake. So, you know, we were back into our DJ days. Yeah, yeah.

You know, it just back like you just come. comes back to you. Right. Like you never left. Like I never left. I was like the guys that Omnia gave us responds for the DJ booth and I was like, oh, fuck yeah. And I'm like, I'm going to the DJ booth. I was like, this is my dream. You know how many years I was I was never, I was never somebody enough to be in the DJ booth when I really cared about being at EDM shows. I was like, well, I have to do this. And as you went to the DJ booth, Noah and I sat back at the table. Yeah. And it was just us too. when we were being harassed by this man who I can't even put into words

what happened he was acting like he was like Noah's bestie yeah and then I was equally confused I was just going along with it and he was trying to like pitch Noah an idea and he was like dude like you just takes one guy like you to get this in front of Dave and Noah was like I don't talk today

I don't know who you think I am I'm not that guy I was like look I've been here for almost 10 years never pitched Dave an idea and not planning on doing it anytime soon yeah imagine I just that's the first time I go to pitch him something. It's just a random guy who came to our table in Vegas. Right. And the guy, he was so annoying. And he asked Noah if me and Noah were together, obviously. He asked if I was his fiance. So that really played into the Cito fanfic. Yeah. And then, which is funny

because it's like, you have, you have a full. Well, yeah, I think he saw my rings and was like, oh, that's clearly your fiance. And then Noah kept being like, no, we work together. I was like, yeah, that podcast that you were told about by other people. Yeah, that's the podcast. No, no, I'm repulsed by her. She is my co-worker. And then Noah came to my rescue, the hero that he is. The guy put one of his friends on FaceTime and came over and was shoving the FaceTime in my face.

It was so annoying. He was like, talk to him, talk to him, talk to him. And I'm like, bro, I don't know you and I don't know this guy. Why are you trying to make me talk to this guy? And I'm like, no, stop. Like I said hi first time and he kept going. I'm like, okay, enough, why are you shoving your phone in my face like this? And Noah goes, just leave her alone, man.

Yeah. I said, hey. Oh, my God, my hero. Take it easy, man. Hey. Step back, bro. Yeah. Meanwhile, I'm like, that's the DJ booth.

Yeah, meanwhile, we see Fran. I'm like, we're texting Fran. We're like, Frank, can we leave like this guy's harassing us? I'm having so much fun. She's like, ah, Chris Lake. Yeah, I was having so much. And by the way, I was not by myself. We had other people with us in the DJ booth.

I didn't go into the DJ booth alone. There was some, um, some, another girl we work with here was with us and her cousins who were delightful. They were. And they were so much fun. And they were with me and the DJ but we were having a grand old time.

And yeah, I was really living out the good days, which is always a funny thing because when people who have met me or know me now just really, I do love throwing that out there because people just don't know that I was a phase of my life. Like when I told Aaron, she was like, no fucking way. I still don't really believe it. I had a real big EDM stage in my life.

Like, I was everywhere. Yeah. And I said, the things I would have done to get into the DJ booth back in the day. Yeah, they called her Francesca, Molly Mariano. Yeah, yeah. They did not. Molly Mariano would be, that's like a funny name. That's a cute name.

Yeah, it is cute. That sounds like a rapper name. Yeah, Molly Mariano. No, it does. Like an Italian rapper. Oh shit. No, no. But had a lot of fun.

Which, by the way, I don't feel like it's putting her on blast because we haven't named who they are, but one of the cousins who'd poked the DJ. She did touch Chris Lake. I think it's hilarious. That's a big now now. And it wasn't like it was in the, it was truly not in an aggressive manner whatsoever.

We were behind him and I was joking because I kept wanting Chris Lake to play his opal. remix, which she wasn't playing. And I was like, I put like it on my phone. I was like laughing. We were joking. I was like, come on. Opelite. And very politely, she tapped him to try and get him to

turn around to see that I wanted him to play Opelight. Excuse me. So she was doing it on my behalf, but we were like, no, like, don't do that. You know? If I was a DJ. Somebody from his team was like, don't touch him. And I was like, yeah, you can't touch the talent. If I was a DJ and someone was poking me,

trying to show me what song to play, I'd be so mad. I honestly think I would like have a freak out. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, like you got, look, you want to linger, you want to put your phone up and just like, be like, whoo, like behind him. Totally fine. You can't, you just can't touch him. I feel that's probably the only rule to be up back there. You just cannot touch the, look, there's a rope behind him and everything.

It's like, you know, you don't, you don't lean over the rope. No, you just can't do that. And then she felt so bad she went like over to the guy, whoever told her not to. It was like, I'm so sorry. I just, you know, yeah. Yeah, there was good intentions. Yes. You know, it wasn't malicious. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I can't imagine she's been in that situation before to, like, no, not to do that, you know? Yeah, well, I think you're just in the moment. You're excited. Everyone's in the booth, you know. Chris, back here. Come on, come on, look back here. Yeah. And I really wouldn't shut up about wanting him to play Opelite, so, you know, she was doing that for me.

I told you it wasn't the vibe. It wasn't. You don't think he did. We left. No, I don't think so, because he played one of his biggest hits towards the end. He was, we left at five. He was ending. at six or whatever.

I bet you we ended way before that. That was cool when they put you guys up on the big screen. That was very cool. That's a crazy picture. That was, yeah, it did look fake. It wasn't. Yeah, people thought that was AI when I posted it. Yeah, no, very real.

Very real. Now, listen, we're all those people in the pool there for you? We won't comment on that. Nobody knows. No, no, no. However, I'm just saying I do think there was plenty of people in the crowd that would have lost their shit if he played that op-light remix because it is like, yes, it is Taylor Swift, but it's a remix.

Like, it's pretty, it's house heavy. For sure, I think people would have had so much fun. But the way his set was going, it didn't sound. No, I know. But he played, like, a Crazy and Love remix. He played, like, there was some current. It wasn't just, like, no lyrics. For the most part, though, it was.

That was my favorite part, the Crazy and Love. I'm like, can you just keep playing, like, Beyonce, normal songs? A DJ set as a whole was just like, No, it was just like, I don't get it. Like, you can just play other people's songs. I've never understood it. That's how it works. So I could get back there.

Just, hey. We could. No, I like, I don't know the transitions and stuff, but I'm like, it is just, I mean, certain DJs are obviously like, yeah. More intensive, Fred again. Right? Like. Yeah.

But I, I, no one. I'm not taking any shots. No one playing at that level just goes and, like, plays other people's remixes. Oh, Chris Lake is like. No, no, no, I'm sure he's. A world renown. I know nothing about DJ. I literally know nothing.

But it was just funny, like in the moment, I think it was, I forget what song. Oh, yeah. It was like, I looked at framing like, this is him, but it's just like a famous song.

Like a known song like, and yeah, no, it was like, this is him? I was like, well, no. But it's like, it could be like he has no,

no, no, it wasn't. It was like a famous song. It wasn't. It wasn't. It wasn't. It was not. It was not.

But I was like, but it did, I was like, yeah, but, you know, He can put his own spin on it. Like, it's a remix. Nice pun.

He's a DJ. Yeah, spin. Yeah, yeah. Good DJ pun. Yeah, great DJ pun. But that was fun. I had a great afternoon. Yeah, it was a lot of fun.

We had some good dinners, as always. And I actually did write down in my notes a moment on Friday night. At 10.52 in Vegas, I took a snapshot in my brain for future me. Of us three harmonizing. Do you remember the moment? A memory I will never forget. Yeah. We all were harmonizing Valerie and I went with my eyes and I took a moment for future me

inspired by past you. It was great entertainment at dinner Friday night. They were saying we were all singing along. Yeah. Have you ever seen Hall Pass? Yes. You know, like in the movie where they do that. But it's for other reasons.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. My philosophy is more of like I like to see myself, you know? Like so if you look in a mirror, then you're like you're remembering yourself. Yeah. In that moment I just see you guys. Yeah. Not me.

Yes. Taking in the setting. Well, that's what I would want to take in. I don't need to see me harmonizing Valerie. I want to see you too harmonizing Valerie. You're not talking to yourself in the future. You're putting a spin on. That was just, really what happened was just a memory.

Yeah. You're like, let me just remember this. Yeah. Just a classic standard memory. That's just a memory. As this woman pukes next to me. Yeah. You'll never forget that.

No, we will never forget it. No. But you guys had two inventions that I just was looking back now, I think France is probably better. I don't even know what mine is. You don't remember yours? I think I do. Heated legs. Oh, the heated legs.

Heated legs to travel with. Yeah, there's a lot of, there's way more background on that one. Don't make it seem like I just came up. Yeah, there's way more background on that one because of your desire to sleep with legs. So we're having to have pants on. Well, you guys jumped down my throat when I was explaining this before I could even explain myself. You guys, you sleep with my pants on. I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa, you two, calm down.

I didn't explain yet that, no, I never sleep with pants on. I either sleep in a T-shirt and underwear or like boy shorts or a short and tank top set or like a short. short sleep side. Never pants. I never sleep in pants on my day to day. But lately in hotel rooms, I've been noticing when I, when I'm alone in a hotel room and I try to sleep, I don't have that warmth around me and I'm cold. I'm just so cold that I've now realized I have to travel with pants because I haven't been able to fall asleep with how cold my legs are for some reason. So I was saying that I think I'm used to wrapping my legs into Matt's legs. And so when I'm alone, I'm like, oh, my legs are missing something. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

So then Noah introduced the idea of traveling he legs. Should we call him the Marties? Yes. Yes. He was like, well, what if you just traveled with legs? I said, what? With below up, legs. Really just like probably ends up. Yeah, yeah, how hairy. Really just ends up probably looking like a body pillow. Yes, exactly, which is their legs. And you can get them customized

to the legs of your liking. You know, that one I don't know it's going to take off. That might just be like a personal thing. I think so. Right? But then yes, we were headed to the casino after dinner on Saturday night and I said, oh shoot, I don't know if I

have any cash left in my wallet, man, I wish you could just put, and this would be dangerous and there's a reason they don't do it. But I wish you could just like put your credit card or debit card into a, you know, at the table or into a machine so that you can gamble. And then Fran said these three iconic words that will live with me forever, tap to play. And I, it probably already exists. I was going to say, why don't I feel like tap to play? Mine was balloon when I heard tap to play. Well, you know, here's the thing like, I think I may have taken that.

I may have taken that like from the arcade. Tap to play from the arcade. I think you can do that on the arcade, like on arcad games. At arcades? Yeah. No. Well, this comes up just as tap to play. That's like if you're playing on your phone, that doesn't count.

Right. But games on your phone. It's already on your phone. Think about tap to play at a casino. No, at a casino is a whole other level. That's a whole other ball game. And casinos are run Like cash is king

You know they got it Right They need the cash But you should be able To do it at a slop Yeah I can never see them Yeah I can never see them doing that At like a table

But the online The games I could see The digital roulette The digital blackjack Tap to play Tap to play It blew my freaking mind

All night I'm like tap to play You're onto something there Yeah Noah left Down Yeah Went fast

Or this was Before dinner on the last day. The last day it was like, we were there for 24 hours. I thought Rio was going to be there by my side for good luck, but she couldn't make it. So I lost her. I was resting my eyes. The first table I went to, in the blink of an eye, I lost $100. Because you really only get four.

You lose four hands. You lose $100. Right. Well, I did turn to Fran. When you sent this message, I said, he needs me. I'm like, he really needs me. Blowing it? Just like kind of like walking you through it.

Yeah. Yeah. The first, it wasn't like your classic blackjack. It's hard to explain, but it's like it was a free bet blackjack table, which they had seemingly more of those than the normal ones. But it was like, they all cover your, if you want to double down or split, they put up the money for that. But then if they, they get 22, which anywhere else you would win. win, that pushes. Like, you don't win.

I don't know if that makes sense. But I lost. And then, but the second table I was there for like 45 minutes, made friends with these Metallica fans at the table. And that's, that's fun. You're rooting for everyone. Yeah. And the guy next to me won $300 in one hand.

Nice. Which I was like, that would be awesome. It's just, you're like, if I was sitting there, because it's all luck. I'm like, that would be me. If I just chose to sit one seat over. It's nice when everyone's rooting for each other. in the casino. You sit next to people who are happy for you for your win, you're happy for them.

Yeah. You know what I also felt good about is I was the first one at that table. I just picked an empty table and then everyone came. Crowding around. Oh, they trusted you. And then I was the last one. They all left and I was and then I was like, let me just lose all my money. And they said he smells that we have to get up. No, they had to catch Metallica with Joe Mangonella. Yeah, that was so funny.

We're walking back to our room and all of a sudden we're like, oh my God. It's Joe. Joe Mandino. And then the second day, I'm walking to meet you guys for dinner and I get caught in like a crowd of Metallica fans and I look next to me and it's just Joe. It's just walking next to me. The juxtaposition of Metallica fans and Wizard of Oz like we were joking like I'll be your Metallica dad if you'll be my Wizard of Oz daughter because this that is what was happening. It was very sweet. It was like hey the big family trip is like hey we'll take little Susie to go see Wizard of Oz and then and then mom and dad are hitting the Metallica show. Yeah, we'll drop her off with the babysitter and we're going to rock out with our top. I didn't realize. The Wizard of Oz is like immersive. Like somebody came

on my TikTok yesterday but they're like they blow wind at you, they drop things from like I thought it was just like a on the screen. And I wish we got to see it, we didn't but maybe maybe one day. The visuals that we were seeing in the videos from the Metallica shows oh my God, we're scared to shit out of me. Yeah. There's one

giant monster. Is that a thing? Is that monster like a Metallica thing? I don't know. But it looked like some shit out of, like, War of the Worlds or something. Matthew McConaughey was there. Stranger Things. I don't know what was going on. But it was Matt.

And then it looks like it's throwing things, but obviously it's up. But I feel like that's like, I would have been like, ah! I feel like they kind of do that at DJ like raves too. Yes. Yes, for sure. But this one was. Scary. Seeing that Matthew McConae was there, I can't believe it.

I could not believe we were in the same vicinity as him. The same time. So close yet so far. Mm-hmm. We gambled for like two seconds. I played Blackjack at the. computer as well what is it called

just like digital black tech because I have just a fear of like being yelled at like that's just where like sitting at it like my biggest fear is sitting at a table and the like somebody looking at me like what is stupid idiot

that was my nine no like and like that I I can't do it like I'm so like it's a crippling anxiety that I cannot but you know what you do like which I was just basically doing the whole time is you just ask I'm like, what should I do here? But I don't want it to seem like I don't know what I'm doing.

Oh, I don't care. Like that's like, they'd rather tell you than you like make a terrible move and fuck their hand up. No, no, no. That's why I could just sit and press the button. Yeah, it's relaxing. Know what I'm doing. And I, you know, I made 30 bucks. And I said 30 bucks, I'm out of here.

It's a win. I'm out of here. I put 20 in. I left with 50. That's amazing. I lost my remaining $7 in cash on the roulette. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. And that was it. That was our big time. But we only stopped really for 10 minutes before we had to leave for our red eye. And then I was so upset. I was like, oh, my God. Yeah, you had the, you, you, you, it was a tease for you because you were like, I can't believe I sat down for 10 minutes because now I wish I had like three hours.

I wish I had gone early. I wish instead of resting my eyes, I would have gone to gamble earlier. It was, Fran and I were laying in bed after the day club, getting, waiting to get ready for dinner. and three separate times Fran hit me with a wow on her phone and every time I was like what happened like it happened three times in the span of 30 minutes I thought I was going to get hit with some crazy news every time every time it was like the most hilarious news ever Michaela from Mormon wives dyed her hair dark and you would have thought the way that Fran reacted to her phone I thought

something me and it looked fantastic yeah it really looked really great no it went great and she was like wow and I said what? She goes, all right, you're not going to like, you're not going to like what I'm about to tell you because you're going to be like down by my It's going to sound stupid. But honestly it kind of warranted the reaction because she did look great.

Yeah, you know, nothing is more amusing than your own TikTok algorithm. So it was just like You're telling me. Videos were coming up and I was like, wow. Nobody ever answers the TikToks I send them. I forget what the other one was too. That was about like some married couple.

I forget what it was. I forget, but it was something like similar, which was very funny. And then we went down the path of deciding if I should dye my hair red, which I won't be doing. I won't be doing, but we did talk about it for like 10 minutes.

We were like, that would be fun. It would be a really cool look on you, but I just think you have too much good hair to, you know. I can't go down the red path because what if it never comes out? Yeah. And I know that I won't want it for long. Yeah.

And then. And you'll have. And I think it's harder when you are someone that does change it more. And then if you wanted to try to go back to blonde. Yeah. But like, then you're kind of stuck in like an orange situation because you can't get it all the way back to the blonde that you want. It would be a disaster. You are red.

I mean, this has been. You have been that color for years. You don't change it up. I'm always bouncing back and forth between two colors. Yeah. So if I all of a sudden, through a third in the mix, we have a big problem on our hands. You know, my stylist would actually murder me. Yeah.

She would not, she wouldn't even do it. Like there would, there'd be no question. Oh, my God. But it was fun to play around and talk about it. No, it was so much fun. We had a blast. Thursday night I went to taping of Jimmy Kimmel. Yes.

Which was really fun. Got to go backstage. Met Jimmy, who was lovely. Jimmy's wife also lovely. You took some great picks. Great picks. Jimmy looked great. Jimmy did look great.

He almost like like a wax figure of himself. Yeah, well, you know, but he's in his show makeup. At the, there was like, a little, it wasn't even really little. It was honestly a lot of people, but after party that we were at and he was in his casuals. Oh, okay, he looked more relaxed.

Yeah, he looked like maybe he was able to wipe his face off. Oh, okay, why? Because he was in his show makeup. Yeah, they had him all done up. Which was just so nice. You know, everyone's just so excited about Guillermo. Like, he's just the star right now.

He walked into the after party. Everybody's freaking out about him. Everyone wants to talk to him about dancing with the stars, talk about his, how is he feeling, the practice. He's full of jokes. He's like, oh, it's so hard. And it was so fun. Honestly, they were talking about it during the show.

And then Jimmy was like, and everybody here, you're all leaving with some of Guillermo salsa. Hell yeah. Because he's got his whole new salsa biz. And I said, oh, my God, I tried this salsa the other week when I was there. And I'm bringing this bad boy home. I carried it with me. I had just, I didn't have a bag to put it in.

I just had salsa in my hand from the taping to backstage to get in the Uber to the after. Like there was food. It was at a P. We were at a Italian restaurant. So there was so much food going around, but I was like, Mike, I will protect. I will protect the salsa. That salsa rocks. The salsa is delicious.

And I was like, I will be taking this home. Everyone kept looking at me like, wow, you really held on to your sauce. Sisterhood of the traveling salsa. You really held on to your salsa. I was like, yeah, I'm not letting this go. So it was, it was fun. It was really cool to see. I've never been to late night taping,

which was very cool. In Brooklyn, big theater, which is a different setting than when they do it in L.A. or a different network. And it was Seth Myers and John Oliver and Robbie Hoffman, who is hysterical. I didn't get to see Gabby. Gabby was there,

but I think we had just, just missed each other. He's going to Jimmy Kimmel. Yeah, guy, when he's going to Brooklyn. But, you know, you get those guys in a room, it's good laughs. Yeah. Seth, John, Jimmy, they're all hamming it up. They're all in the biz.

They all have similar experiences, laughing inside jokes. They were having a good time. Even John Oliver was joking about his children being so obsessed with Guillermo and Dance with the Stars. Not anybody else. They were like, I don't think, he was like, I don't think my kids would watch if Gierma wasn't on it. Like, they have no interest, but with Giermo, it was cracking me up because he was like, my eight-year-old, you know, it shows on late. So sometimes they don't get to see all the way to the end who maybe they get to see Germo's heads, but maybe not.

And he says, like, sometimes he'll wake up in the morning. He's like, ah, rub on his eyes, waking up to Giermo, is Giermo safe? Relatable. like, yes. He was like, oh, thank God. The first thing he's thinking about when he, when he wakes up. So, it was, it was a lovely time. Then it was right off to,

right off to Vegas. Right off to Vegas. And then tonight you're doing the, uh, book talk with Chrissy Carlson Romano. Yes. Which by the way, has been making waves on TikTok, her book. Well, let me tell you something. I read the whole book actually at the pool on Friday.

and I was taking some notes in my phone as I was going along. And if you were to objectively just look at the notes that I was writing, you'd be like, wait, what the fuck was going on with her life? Like, you would really, it's especially because there's a certain point where she had some fairly tumultuous relationships in her 20s. and it's like, I'm like, okay, like, it's like engagement, cheating. Like, there's just a lot of, a lot of going, a lot of stuff going on. I didn't realize she had a boyfriend, fiance, who like really estranged her from her family. A lot of, a lot of juicy stuff in this, in this book.

And I'm excited to talk to her about a lot of it. She has a very unique experience. There's a lot of different paths that child stars can go on. and a lot of different outcomes of what their life turns into. And she's telling her story. And by the way, she has every right to, because I've seen some people kind of being like, why is she writing this book, like,

and talking about other people. I don't know, it's her fucking life. She's got these stories. It's her, she lived it. Like, I don't think she objectively said anything, like, nasty about anybody or caused any issues. It was like, just all of these other people are so vital in her telling her own story.

It's like all experiences that she lived through. And they're very interesting stories. I don't see what everybody's issue is with her telling her story. I mean, everybody has a freaking book. I know. I don't see the problem. But that's going to be awesome. Can people still buy tickets if this comes out?

Yeah, yeah. We're at the 92 Y. I also think you can stream it. Oh, yes. Yeah, you can buy. To stream as well, my mom replied to my story. Because like half the time I hear from her on it, Instagram. Like, she swept up on my story and just said, going to stream it. Thanks. Thank you. So where

can people stream it on the 92. If you go on the 92 Y, like events website, it should be like right there under you'll see the talk and then it's like tickets to or whatever. Something to stream and then tickets to purchase. That'll be awesome. That'll be lovely. It's at I believe 730 Eastern we start. Hell yeah. So that's going to be great. And then we're off to, we're off to Montana. Baby's first brand trip.

The two of us are going to Montana with TSW. We're really excited. A little nervous. So, so excited, so nervous. It is Big Sky, Montana, which is going to be gorgeous. We're going to be recording from out there, so we're not missing any episodes.

We're just going to be like on our own individual computers and our own individual hotel rooms. Horseback riding. Yeah. for the first time. I'm so excited to see you on a horse. Well, Bree is also coming on the trip. Brianna Chicken Fry and she was texting me last night.

And she ever been on a horse? No. Both of us have never been horseback riding. I'm smiling either of year. Let me tell you, when I saw horseback riding on the itinerary, I sent a selfie of me like grinning ear to ear to rear to Ria. And I was just like me thinking about you on a horse.

No, genuinely I can't figure out what do I even wear? Can I wear like black? They wrote, so they've been giving us like a tire. Yes. said wear comfortable pants and stuff to horseback ride. Can I wear black leggings with then boots? You could do like black leggings in a in a cowboy boot. Okay. What are you wearing? I will probably They said comfortable pants, but you told me you were going to wear jeans. That's not comfortable pants. To me that is a horseback ride. Like I would probably wear like denim. I'm most likely going to

wear jeans and cowboy boots. Is that like the thing to do with horseback riding? I want to fit in. So I don't want to show up in black leggings and boots. That to me, like black pants tucked into a boot, I picture horseback riding. I've never seen somebody wear jeans. Well, I used to I used to wear jeans with some half chaps in my, in my rod of those. Okay. So actually, you know what? I won't be packing those. I don't own those anymore. I actually have seen people wear horses and jeans. But it's like more casual. It's like a skinny, like a skinny gene. Yeah. Obviously, I've seen people wear jeans while horseback riding. I don't know why I said that. It's a very common.

Very common. And Western, I think, extremely popular. More so than at the English that I was wearing jeans. Totally. I don't know why. A lot of people in denim. What is wrong with me? I actually think it's a better material just a little hardier just in case anything happens, you know, you're a little more protected

in denim. What do you mean just in case anything happens? No, it's just like... No, it's more about I feel like the things roaming up against you. Yeah, like you're on saddle. It's like a legging is not a, it's not, it's thin. Yeah, you are. Like a denim is nice to just like on leather. When I went horseback riding last year, I feel like that's something that they said, like, wear like thick pants. Yeah. Okay, so not a legging. So I actually think,

I'm gonna be gene. I recommend a gene. A boot cut gene? Yes. I recommend a denim. Okay. Yeah. Okay. We'll figure it out. We'll, we'll figure it out. It'll be great. Oh, God. I'm so excited. I'm very excited, though. Can't wait. Never been to Montana. Yellowstone, big sky. Yeah, there's a new state to cross off the list for us. Yes, very exciting. When your flight is landing, play the John Mary album, Paradise Valley.

Okay, we'll do. It'll really set the vibe. Noted. Really happy we're going together, because if we didn't have each other. I would have been way more. I actually, I don't know if I'd go. Yeah, no, I was like, okay, well, thank God we have each other. Yeah.

No, there are some lovely girls that we do know that will be on the trip as well. So that'll be a lot of fun. Can you recreate this photo? Totally. I'm actually packing that. Oh, he's in jeans. Yeah. Okay. That'd be a nice fit on you. Right. Right? Damn. Can't wait to get our hat and everything. It's going to be a lot of fun. So we will be recording from there. Yes. So let's get into the rest of today's episode. I have big news at the end of today's episode that I've been holding on to. You're saving it all the way to the end? Yes. It's not appropriate to share now. Not appropriate to share now. Oh my God. I'm sorry going to be thinking about the whole time. We'll get there for.

fast, honey. All right. Oh, I know what it is. Okay. Well, no, no, I'm not going to say it. I'm not going to say, but I think I know what it is. Okay. You do. Yeah. Yeah. Anyways. All right. Let's get into today's topics. We're going to be talking about Dakota Johnson and Taylor Swift on Saturday Night Live. Gypsy Rose's fiance, unfortunately, has passed away. Past. And we're going to talk about that situation. And Bachelor producers at Warner Bros. have sent a season desist to Chris Harrison for his new show The Vow, which was supposed to air in November. Who knows what's happening there? Yeah, I've been seeing ads for it. Yeah.

Dakota Johnson was on Saturday Night Live. Saturday Night. And she had a very special guest for her monologue. Taylor Swift popped in. It's one of those like a little back and forth right now. We got her, we got Dakota in the Patient Zero music video. We got them together with the VMAs. Now we got Taylor on Saturday Night Live.

And people are wondering, is this Taylor's new Blake lively? And people are people, you know, No. Because I just remember you saying this the other day that I thought you were just repeating yourself. People are saying, I thought you meant that, because you said that to me. Oh, like two days ago. Oh, I don't remember that. I saw a tweet that was like, Taylor's French just loves to like fix it on one friend and then they were like her little boo-boo.

Well, I mean, you know, some of these friendships burn bright in certain moments, but they burn bright when it is beneficial to, to, to, to, to, you know, some of these friendships burn bright in certain moments, but they burn bright when it is beneficial to, to, to, to, to, to, you know, to, to. both. You know? Like Dakota's got a lot. She's promoting right now. They've been friends for a while. But they've been friends for a long time. And Taylor definitely like still has.

It's not like the people she was friends with is she's no longer. Like it's not like their friends for a little while. Then they're gone. There's some. There's some. There's some. But then there's a lot that she's kept. Right.

I think that she has a lot of really great friendships that we're just not seeing all the time because they're not promoting something. Yeah. This is great for them. Now they've been friends for a long time. They're like, let's promote the music video. Let's promote this. You rub my back.

I'll rub yours. A little scratch here. We're good friends. Why not? Very funny monologue, Dakota Johnson, saying that Taylor is her therapist. And Taylor would joke that you just show up at my door and, you know. Yeah.

You're like an empty bottle of wine. And it is, that was a fitting joke too because I remember we were just talking about like when she was seen, Dakota was seen with Machine Gun Kelly and they were like in out of Taylor's apartment, but no sign of Taylor was like, oh, does she just have the key? Like, she just, she just can go come and go from, from Taylor's apartment, what she needs to. She trusts people in her life to go to her place. Now, she did mention two public breakups with musicians, that being Chris Martin. And I guess she was referring to role model, which like, I didn't know was like that public of a breakup. I didn't even, it was like a blip. I thought

they just like went on a couple dates and that was really it. No, it seemed to maybe be a little bit more serious than we have thought. Maybe not serious, but like it went on longer than I think we thought. He did put her in that song. Her voice. But I feel like it wasn't like a public breakup because like what was public about the breakup

other than like, oh they're not together anymore? The only thing that was public about the breakup was that they like put they said they broke up. Did they like actually say that? Yeah, yeah. Oh, okay. I'm pretty sure they're like, I want to say if I,

maybe I want to fact check myself. But now I feel like I remember a people article or something being like, yeah, it's over. Confirmed. People, Dakota Johnson, Roe model split up a while ago. Exclusive source. Yeah. So that's, that's.

Their people told people. Yeah, their people told people to say that they broke up. I wouldn't say that's like a huge public breakup. Like compared to like Chris Martin. No, but there wasn't like a lot of drama there. I think she was also with Chris Martin way longer. This happened in December 2025. I mean, time really freaking flies.

No, no, that was when they first linked to December 2020. Oh, my God. I was like, what? Like, how could that be? That is crazy. How could that possibly be? Well, she likes herself a musician because now she's been seeing Machine Gun Kelly. And my favorite thing is all the spottings of Machine Gun Kelly face-timing Dakota Johnson.

Like, have you seen that on DuMaw? Like, every week is like, Machine Gunn Kelly's seen FaceTiming. Like, he's just always FaceTiming her in public. She really does love a musician. And I saw, because they did a lot of press together, those three, Josh and Anne Hathaway and Dakota for Verity, that they were asked who their first, like, celebrity crush was. And Dakota said some

guy from a band that I've never heard of. And Anne Hathaway was like, God, you're so cool. She was like, who even is that? You know? I keep seeing, like, you're just such a music gal. I keep seeing Ann Hathaway just talk about how cool she thinks Dakota Johnson is.

Yeah. She's like, I think she heard just existence. She's just so cool. And she really does seem that way. Who are her parents again? Dakota Johnson. Johnson's parents are Kathy Lee, Gifford. Right?

Oh, no, no, no, Melanie Griffith. Kathy Lee Gifford. Kathy Lee Gifford. Whose kid is Kathy Lee Gifford? Someone is Kathy Lee. I looked at you like, mm-hmm. Melanie Griffith. I was like, oh, yeah, obviously Kathy Lee is Dakota Johnson's mom.

Cody Griffith and Cassidy Griffith. Oh, no, no. easily mixed up with Dakota Johnson. Yeah. Cassidy did try and was trying to be an actress for a little bit there. Don Johnson. You know what? It was just the name. Griffith. Yeah. That's really funny.

Griffith, give her. I look at you like, uh-huh. No, not even. But Melanie Griffith, yes. And here's the thing was she was with Antonio Banderas for a really long time to go to Johnson. Like, looked at, there's a, like, a very prominent stepdad in her life.

That's awesome. I don't know that. Why did I say awesome like that? Oh, because how long, I mean, they were married, 1996 to 2015, that's a good chunk of time. That is. That's a good stepdad. And when was Dakota Johnson born? When was she born? Isn't she like 37? Yeah, October 4th?

1889. Oh, it was her birthday yesterday. Oh, yeah, because of that. Oh. It's like the whole point of Taylor Swift coming out. Happy birthday, Dakota? Wait, that was why she came out. They did a whole birthday thing. I don't think that's why she came.

Oh, no, no, no, but they did. I did see she was like only one of four or five people ever on SNL to, like, be hosting while she turned. Yeah, right, where the birthday was next day. So, 1989, they got married in 20, in 1996. So, I mean, she was really young. 1989, baby. Taylor Swift's birthday year as well. So close in age, no wonder they're such good friends.

Yes, they're besties. But, yeah, so Antonio Banderas was there for a very prominent amount of time in her life. I said that so confidently. Kathy Lee. Melanie. You know, they kind of look alike. In my head, I'm like, Kathy Lee Gifford? Is it gonna Johnson's mom?

Nope. Nope. Oh shit. Yeah. Wow. But she did host SNL. I thought she did a great job. I didn't fully watch because we were on a red eye.

But I saw a lot of the, you know, clips and sketches on social afterwards. I feel like you could basically watch the entire show on TikTok now. 1,000% you just watch the skits. on NBCS and L on TikTok or Instagram you can just watch basically the entire show which is a pretty easy way to consume the show right you could

say that you watch but when you see the skit that she did with those three guys so I can never remember the name of their trio yeah um please destroy yeah that was funny because I appreciate that I appreciate that skit because she was like leaning into it was very self-deprecating

about like how she acts and like she does if there's anybody that in Hollywood they feels very self-aware it is Dakota Johnson. Like she seems very self-aware of what she does and how she is perceived. I agree.

And all those things and can joke about it. She's done a bunch of very funny. Like the last time she was on, she did a very funny sketch with them too. Yeah. And they did, at one point, they did like a nepo joke where they were like nepot truce.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Right, because one of them... One of them... She made a joke like, oh, was your dad get you this job or something like that? Yeah, right. One of them the dad works in us now.

They were like, Nepo Trues. Yeah, yeah. Neppo truths. Yeah, yeah. You're like, come on. Fellow Nepo doesn't throw another nepo onto the bus.

That is a funny joke. Yeah. Yeah, so she crushed it. Good promotion for Verity. Yeah. And although Verity is not getting, not getting the best reviews. No, no, it's certainly very mixed.

But like, I got to say this is what I've expected from this movie. just because I think there's so, and we can talk about it more in a weekly watch report because we can give, I saw so many people went to go see it this weekend. What's crazy is like,

objectively you think, oh, yeah, whatever, it may be getting panned, but it made so much money. Oh, it did, yeah. And then you look at like the Tom Cruise movie that just bombed. $8 million for the Tom Cruise movie. And that one's not going to get reviews either, but.

It says, Tom Cruise movie bombs will lose, $150 million. Yeah, I mean, that doesn't have great reviews either. But one made money and one didn't. So what, like the studio is going to be pretty happy about the one that made money. People were joking because Ann Hathaway and Tom Cruise are going to be in a movie together coming up

so they're like, oh, they can both. They're going to be in a movie together coming up? You didn't see that promo video that they released? Like, I forget how long. No. It was like a social, like just them together. I figure what the movie is. Yeah, it was this thing.

Days of Thunder. Summer 2028. I think it's on. Annie? It was just like. He looks on to me. What do you think? That looks on. Tom Cruise playing an old salty NASCAR rider that's not ready to give up his career.

And Anne Hathaway's like, it's time to retire. Oh, it's a remake. Oh, he was in the original. I knew that sounded familiar. And Nicole Kinman. Is that how they met? That's probably how they met. Damn.

And the fast wait scroll down, and rubber brooms between her kids. Oh, I like this. Sounds good. Yeah, you know what? Never seen this. Came out in 1990. And they're doing a remake.

Oh, it's not coming up for a while. She's a team owner and engineer. Anne Hathaway. It's so cool that people call her Annie when they know her well. know her well. I wish I could call her Annie. Yeah.

You could. I don't know her like that. We don't know her like that. Can't call her Annie unless she says you can call me Annie. Right. You know? You know? Well, anyways, this will be fun.

I mean, hey, she doesn't sleep. She doesn't stop filming movies. No. But it's already, it's crazy. It's like she is taking a break now, but she's got everything lined up for when she comes back. Yeah, maybe we won't see her until 2020. Yeah. She said that. She was like, I'm going. I'm out of here. See ya. Yeah. All right. Moving on, Gypsy Rose's fiancé was found dead. Yes. On his, what would have been his 34th birthday.

Apparently alleged to overdose with an unknown substance. He had a gun by his side. I don't know. Things aren't looking good here. No, this whole thing is very murky. just doesn't you know and everyone I'm sure everyone had the same thought you know not going to say what that thought was I feel like

but I imagine everybody had the same thought for legal reasons you can't say it yeah yeah we because we don't we can't but everyone I'm sure was thinking what we're thinking and she allegedly

sold the story to TMZ is what his family said dude remember when Gypsy Rose got out and everyone was like so gungho about Gypsy Rose and like making her this huge star and we made a video. Yeah, they were acting like she was Anne Hathaway. Yeah, and we made a video being like, let's hold off here. Right. And we got ripped apart for being like, let's hold off on the Gypsy Rose love. Yeah. We got we got ripped apart. I remember archiving the video because we were like,

All right. I guess we're the ones that's... I don't know what's going on. She just launched a petition to combat harassment and cyberbullying after his death. She's turning her pain into purpose by launching a petition against targeted harassment and cyberbulling.

She shared a change.org petition to social media. This whole story is crazy. It is really nuts. There's really not much to say besides, first of all, it means... I forgot that they have a kid. Somebody has died, so it is awful. But, you know, has opened a whole bunch of speculation.

Yeah. Yes, they have a kid. I don't think I lost that. She recently. Yeah, 2024. Allegedly from TMZ that says that she sent Ken a happy birthday text and did not receive a response. He was later found by Gypsy's brother Dylan and his wife when they arrived at the home. Then Ken's sister went live on TikTok that night confirming his death and revealing that his last words to her were, I love you.

They welcomed a daughter in December 20204. And they first connected when Gypsy was still in prison. He proposed to her in October 2018. Yeah. They called off their engagement, then reunited in August 2019, then broke up again. Then she got married and split in the whole thing. And then they got back together. Yes.

it's kind of odd she would be texting her fiance and baby daddy happy birthday like that in the morning right? Like wouldn't Yeah, I don't know where she was. Exactly, that's what I'm saying. Like, wouldn't you be saying it in person or like a phone call?

Yeah. Yeah, you would think. I don't know. You know what I'm saying? Like. Yeah. Yep. TMZ obtained the police report detailing a troubling picture of the scene deputies walked into which I feel like, you know, that's what we were saying that there was, he was allegedly found with drug paraphernalia

and a gun near his body. Mm-hmm. But is Zesco said that he was found by Jipsy's brother? Isn't that what I just said? Yes. Deputies were called to Ken's Louisiana home Thursday evening for a welfare check after he stopped answering his phone and wouldn't come to the door.

The report says Ken was cold to the touch, not breathing when he was found. Yeah, I mean, there was a whole load of drugs allegedly found near him. Yeah, that's awful. Yeah, really. Really. Really says that Ken was, yeah, I mean, I don't need to read the details. That's pretty. It's, it's very awful.

Deputies were also told Ken had been at church with members of the Blanchard family Wednesday night and had made comments of a being depressed and upset. And then when he failed to show up for work Thursday, that the family decided to check in him in contact authorities. Yeah, that's awful. I mean, once, like, it's just really does seem that tragic events have followed her and her life constantly. Like, it's very, very crazy to see. Like, you saw that headline, you went, oh, you got to be kidding.

me. Yeah. Yeah. What is going on? Just immediately talking to the press is very suspicious. Not good. I mean, look. Your fiance, before talking to your own family members, you're going to call TMZ talk to them before even talking to his family.

That's how they're going to find out on TMZ. At the end of the day, she's not well. No. Like, you know, I think it's hard to judge her on. what a rational human being would do in that situation, I don't think those are, I don't think they're comparable. If that makes sense.

It's like for you to be like, oh, like you're not going to call. I'm like, that would make sense. We wouldn't do that. But what would Gypsy Rose do? I think her whole viewpoint of the world is very, very tainted, obviously.

As soon as she came out of jail, she was thrust into superstardom. It's like all she knows now is like everybody, No, but it's crazy. It's crazy. Everything she does is reported on in the tabloids. Like she is an A-less celebrity. Like everything that she does is reported on and that's what happened.

So I can't like what that does to your brain chemistry, I don't, I don't know. Like already, like there was a lot going on. And it's like then there's that. Yeah. It's like you feel like TMZ is the first phone call you make. I don't know. Or Gypsy's like, I'm so famous. I have to call TMZ.

Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. And the sense of being like, well, that's a crazy thing to do is I'm like, well, I don't think it's comparable what we would do versus what she would do. And that is not to defend her. That's just making sense of the situation, which is you can't make sense of. But legally, really not going to say many more thoughts on this because you can't because we don't know what happened. And I will say it's pretty, to read the TMZ article, it's pretty detailed. You know, I don't think, the police report is right there to read and what they walked into and saw and all of that. So it's hard to sort of argue with that. Right. And then that's incredibly sad. Yeah.

You know. Yeah. So moving on, ABC, well, not ABC, but Bachelor producers and Warner Brothers sent a cease and desist to Chris Harrison for his new upcoming show, The Vow, which is supposed to air in November. there was some trailers for it already. I don't know how this works. Like, I don't know if it's just because, like, think about all the reality shows that have similar ideas. Yeah.

That people just, like, make now that you just change it a little bit and you can get away with it. So I feel like I don't know if they have a case here or not. It's definitely because it's Chris Harrison. Well, because he's hosting it. And I wonder if in his contract when he left there were certain things. Right, like you can't go and host another show. Probably, it probably was.

Right. Because didn't get paid like office. Yeah, I think he got paid a ton and they were probably like, hey, we'll pay you, but you can't go do this. You can't go make the batch. Yeah, I wonder if it's, I wonder if it's similar to like with Noah Wiley with ER when they were like he couldn't make, like they were like you just made a new version of ER. Despite not being able to do that. Like with the, you know that there is certain legality around that. I bet they just bring Chris back.

Like I think they can make the show, but there's certain words and things that they can't use because I think the Bachelor. has those locked down. It says the letter dated Friday, September 18th, objects to promos featuring falling rose petals, mansions,

and the words, The Bachelor. It argues the materials right on the goodwill of the franchise and references state and federal trademark copyright and unfair competition laws.

Fox's response on Thursday, September 24th says WBTV lacks rights to a, quote, falling Rose's motif or clinical uses of the best.

Bachelor and says still omits the trailer's context of out premieres November 11th with six episodes airing weekly following 30-year-old loan officer, Jace Cates, and 10 eligible bachelorats. So they'll just go back and forth on it. It's like certain things. I guess, you know, that's what you're saying.

You see things that, to the regular person's eye, is synonymous with The Bachelor. Rose's Mansion, you think the Bachelor. The Bachelor's like, hey, you can't use this. And they're like, well, I think we can. So I don't know. I didn't really think Cresorison needed to do something like this either,

but when it's in your blood, maybe you just can't give it up. Right. He just wants people to find that love. I'm just not really necessarily interested in watching a show anymore about people. Like, the end goal of them is to get engaged, engaged and married because, and that's obviously we are for marriage, I'm saying, but like now it's just not believable. Yeah, yeah. That because of the.

the way things have changed. Like, yes, there are very successful couples from the show. I mean, Kelsey and Joey, who are great pals. They're getting married. Like, there are so many successful stories. But it has just changed so much with the people who are trying to be on the show. For sure. And the outcome. Then now it just looks at it like, oh, they're just kind of doing it to get some kind of fame or, you know, or they pick really young people that are not really ready. Yeah. So I don't know. I think it had it. time and it was great and there are success stories. But I think that the reality TV landscape has shifted and we've kind of moved past this

format. Yeah. Realistically, I think they are going to try and bring it back because they just can't confirm. I feel like they just don't want to admit it's dead. And then they also just lost so much with the Taylor Frankie Paul season and everything that happened. that's, I don't know if they want like that to be the ending for the franchise. So I could see them trying to do something.

There are rumors that they are reportedly eyeing this viral doctor, Dr. Mike, to be the next bachelor. They wanted to lead season 30. This was a page six story that, you know, they want to pick somebody who's age appropriate, really looking for love. I think he's 36. He's big on social. He's got millions and millions of followers on his Instagram,

six million on Instagram, 15 million followers on YouTube, 36-year-old family medicine practitioner. So that, I don't know, that would be an interesting avenue to go down. I do think they should go down the avenue of someone not known. I know that that's being, I'm sure that's being discussed,

but I think they should go with someone. If they are going to bring it back, go with someone like this, who is obviously that's for me to say not known he's very known but he's not known within the franchise like it's not somebody that's been on another show or anything like that and someone that is a little bit older

they can maybe go away from it they don't need to have the messaging be you must get engaged at the end of this if they want to shift it they should if they pick somebody younger they definitely should I just can't imagine like I just think it's almost a prize thing too. It's like season 30 of the Bachelor you know?

They're like they're going to give up before that before they hit season 30 like I think they're in their minds it's like we got to be able to bring this back for a big milestone a big season 30 and see what happens and what could go down but they should go with

someone that is seemingly well liked and believable that they want to fall in love and have a long-term committed relationship. Very much ready to settle down. Yes. We need to believe that.

Yeah. Not like Harry Jousey. No. Nobody was ever going to believe. No. Like don't give me some 25-year-old hot shot that I'm like, no shut and let. No. Because then it's just a different type of dating show.

And there's nine million different dating shows now. And that's what makes The Bachelor of The Bachelor is you want to believe in that, in them wanting like a real relationship. If you thought like, hey, let's date around, fuck around, we'll watch Love Island. Like, it's not where we think we want to watch and believe a real relationship can come out of The Bachelor. Make us believe. Yes. That's it.

Make us feel something. Yes. That's all we're asking. Yeah, yeah, exactly. All right, that wraps up the topics. Let's get into the weekly watch report brought to you by Chase Sapphire Preferred. Okay, Fran, I have to ask, are you one? of those people who actually maximizes travel rewards or are you just out here booking flights

Weekly watch report on Monday, weekly watch report on Monday, weekly watch report on Monday.

So, this is my big news. I did start Gilmore Girls. If I could give us, like if I could stand and stay in frame, I would. But imagine I'm giving you a standing ovation. I see it. I envision it. How about you? Wow.

Thank you. Thank you. I feel like you kind of said you wore out over text the other day. Or like you kind of alluded to watching it. Well, the big news wasn't to you guys. It was to our listeners. That's why I said at the beginning, I was like, I know what it is. We've been talking about it.

No, you know, people listen to the show. I can't forget that sometime. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We are not just having a conversation. I know that I told you. Yeah, and she told me too. Yeah, yeah. I am on episode 12.

Yes. Damn, where do you find the time? Have you watched away from a plane? No, I have only been watching on Delta flights because Delta has the full first season of Gilmore Girls. Yes. And so I first started when we flew to L.A. for Dancing with the Stars. But then I was not on Monday's episode for the Weekly Watch Report.

So I wasn't able to talk about I started it. But I was looking for something to watch and I saw they had the full first season. And I said, perfect. This is perfect. This is the time. So I clicked play and I watched six episodes on the way to L.A. Then I had a hectic week, so I didn't watch any TV at all because... We had a big week.

It was a big week last week. Yeah, but I was also moving and I didn't have Wi-Fi or anything. The TVs weren't connected for me to even watch anything. So then on the way to Vegas, I said, all right, episode seven. And I watched up until episode seven. 12 and I'm really liking it. Now is it groundbreaking? No, but I'm only in the first season. Yeah. I'm just now getting extremely invested. Yeah. Is it giving you like autumn vibes? Yes. 1,000% I understand what people mean. It's such a false show. It's cozy. It's comfortable. It's like I could put it on and be at ease, which is really nice.

Because that's really where it comes. That's what it comes down to. Like I would never define this as like groundbreaking. You. You're You know, you're not, but it's enjoyable. You're not on the edge of your seat every episode type of thing. It's just a warm hug. Right. It's just really cozy to watch. Yes. And I'm really enjoying it.

And I like that I have something that I could, because we have a lot of travel coming up now in like in a few weeks. That I'm like, oh, Gilm, this is going to be my traveling, like comfort plane show. Obviously, they only have, I'm going to have to now bring my iPad to watch. Because after the first season, they don't have the other seasons on the Delta planes. So Delta, excuse me, if you would. add the seasons. You put all seasons. That would be really nice for me.

So I'm very much enjoying it. And I'm very happy that I started it. And it was perfect that it was just waiting for me for a season. I couldn't find, I was looking for other things to watch. Nothing was sticking out to me. I said, well, why not just do this? Will you continue when you're not on a plane?

Yes, I will. I will continue when I'm not on a plane. Because I'm just like envisioning the setup in your new apartment. Oh, yeah. with Goalmore Girls on the TV. Oh. And like I gave myself goosebumps thinking about it. What do you think I'm just,

with like the leaves changing outside your window. Oh my God with the brick. It'll just be goddamn gorgeous. What do you think I am doing when I go home today? Right, lighting some candles. Before we leave. I need to lay down all day today and just watch Go more girls. And by the way,

on the topic of the new apartment, I have to give a huge thank you to my in-laws who came this weekend to help Matt unpack because we were away. And not only did they unpack, they organized my entire life for me. So nice. And I am so thankful. I have never had a closet, this organized in my entire life. It's a dream.

My mother-in-law practically color coordinated my closet. She put every fabric of clothes in the same place, leather in the same place. Tank tops are together. Your sweaters are together. Everything is so freaking organized. It's a dream. And I don't have to do a thing now. Don't you feel amazing?

No, like, when you see all your, you're like, I have all my clothes in my closet. Getting dress this morning? I can see it all. Although I'm not in some fabulous outfit. I am in a sweatsuit. But being able to be like, all right, the sweatshirts right there and the sweatpants are right there. And they go together. Boom.

I feel so light and airy. Like I can just bounce my way through life. It's a dream. With the way that it's so organized. I can't thank them enough. Like, genuinely, I am so grateful. They are the freaking best for doing that. Like, I just am so, like, what?

And they were nonstop because then I, we took a red eye, so I walked in the door at like 8 a.m. They're still working on things. I looked at them. I said, please rest. Please, please. At 8 a.m. At 8 a.m.

They were up still like doing things because really, really cool. we now have my father-in-law's pool table that he grew up with. Like, when his brother was in fifth grade, his mom got this pool table. His brother is now 66. So, like, this is a very old pool table. It's really cool. It looks antique. Like, the felt is brown.

It's gorgeous. And we have enough room that we needed to fill up the space. We said, this pool table would be perfect. And it was quite the scene getting it there, apparently. I don't know. I wasn't involved with the moving of the pool table. I can't imagine it's easy to get a pool table up a walk-up. No, a moving company did it, and they had to like take it apart.

The carpenter had to come and take it apart and then put it all back together. Yeah. So it was a whole thing. Pivot! Yes. Which I was not there for. Pivot it. But it is so gorgeous and so cool. My mother-in-law was sewing the pockets of the pool table when I walked.

said, what are you doing? I said, please, and all the pockets were fixed. I'm like, God, bless your soul. Yeah. That is amazing. We played four games last night of pool because we had to break it in, which was so awesome. It's so funny. That's to be a billiards champion. Oh my God. Well, I can't wait, but it's so funny because, you know, like you realize you have, like, we have power social relationships with people that we follow, right? Like, there are people that we follow and follow every move. And then people do that with us. And I've been posting like, little glimpses of our apartment. And people are like, where, where's your other couch?

Where's your other furniture? I'm like, no, I still, most, I still have most of my other furniture besides the table we left for our landlords. But, like, I still have my other couch. It's just in a different part of the apartment. And I'm like, I feel the need to respond to everybody who asked. Because I'm like, oh, we're friends. They're like, what happened to your other couch?

I'm like, oh, I still have it. Also, there's like so many reasons why you could potentially not have that couch. Right. Well, I thought that people were kind of. Like, you could have, it could not, it could not be the right size for the new apartment. And I thought, you could have said, hey, I actually sold it because I needed a new app. Or I donated it. Like, there's a lot of other possibilities. Which we did with other little pieces of furniture. But I just felt like people were accusing me of like just like getting rid of nice stuff and then getting new stuff. And it's like, no, it's not like I'm not like I'm not just like getting rid of everything and getting. But I did. You also could have literally not had a choice. Like, you know what I'm saying? Like there's a world where you could have been moving into an apartment where you physically could not.

fit or have that couch. And also this place is just so much bigger that I had to get more furniture. I'm like, I have to get more. Solely square footage wise. I needed more furniture, which is why we brought the pool table in because I was like, we have to, you know,

fill this out, but it looks so gorgeous. And I can't wait for you. You're going to have to share it because people are listening to be like, this place is so fucking huge as you put a fucking pool table in there? I will once the car. I will definitely post pictures.

of the pool table. I could just say, like, people are like, this, she's in Manhattan with the fucking pool table in our apartment? It's so ridiculous. It is,

but it's awesome. It is so awesome. Yeah. And the pool table, when you tell somebody they're like, that's ridiculous, but then when you see it,

you're like, oh, that makes sense. It makes sense. It makes sense. But I will wait until the carpet that I got comes in for underneath the pool table

because I found this cool carpet on Etsy. It's like a funky, yeah, irregular-shaped maroon carpet that I like. You're in your, You're in your rug game right now.

You've got a lot of really cool different rugs in there. So that'll go under the pool table, but it is hilarious because last night we were like, all right, let's have some old fashions place, pool. Yeah, yeah. Just living that Upper West Side life. Yeah, it's so Manhattan. Actually, speaking of Upper West Side, today we had our first semi-run-in. Yes, I saw how you guys are on the same train line.

We're on the same train line. I said you need to find, because you know how you find, like, at your stop, the right car to get into that it takes you directly into, like, the front where I've lived there for long enough where I know where I know where to go. Once you find that, then we'll be on the same car. Like, I'll see you walk. Or you'll see me walk in. I was only one car away from you. And I saw him get out. And then I ran up to him.

And I was like, hey! I'm not in front of my fellow commuters. Yeah. Like, he's like, you're embarrassing me right now. But I was so excited. It was our first run in. And you have so much to learn. She's like, why are you going out this way?

I'm going to get a coffee. That Noah is so close now. Well, it's like, I don't even know how often we are actually going to hang out, but it feels like, you know, when you move somewhere close to somebody, you're like, oh my God, we're going to be together all the time. I don't know how much we actually are, but I will say last week during the Yankees were playing and Matt had to come to work to stream and we were getting, the movers were delivering something and I was going to be alone.

and Matt was like, oh, I don't want you here alone with like people coming in, you know, whatever. And I'm like, oh, no, it's fine. He was like, I'm going to call Noah to see if he'll come stay with you while I said, please don't. I was like, come on. Is that better than being a lot? I was like, I was like, hey, I'm a big, hey, I already saved her life once this weekend. Then Matt this weekend was like, hell yeah, that's what I like to hear when I'm not around. Noah's stepping in.

But I'm like, no, because we had just recorded our episode and I knew no, it was like editing and sending me clips. I said, no, because then he's going to like ask me these questions in person and then I won't be able to ignore him. I'm going to have to answer all of them like if he's sitting next to me. So I opted to be alone. But then they didn't actually, they didn't end up coming anyway. So it was best of both worlds. There you go. Yeah.

Was not an issue. Yeah. So anyways, Gilmore Girls, I will give it right now. I'm going to give it a B plus because. so reasonable. That's why I'm out with it. What do you think about Chad Michael Murray in those early episodes?

You know, I have a lot to say about that, but really not at all at the same time. I don't know how to gather my thoughts all together. I didn't know he was in the show at all, which made me feel silly and stupid. Yeah. He was so young. Yeah. This is way before One Tree Hill, right? It was before.

Because I'm like, oh my God. Not like that much before, but before. I just didn't know he was in it. And so I was kind and like a prominent figure in the early episodes. I also texted you and I said, why does it seem like Lorelai and Dean have a flirty relationship?

Yeah, I said, I haven't really, I never felt that. Well, I think it's because she's like a Kulu mom, not a regular mom. So the way she talks to Dean is like younger than like a how like a ma, like a, you know, a stirring bomb would talk to him. For sure.

So I was just like, obviously this would be highly inappropriate and not a subplot of, Gilmore girls, but I was like, is there any way Lorelai and Dean get together later on? You know, but no. That would be very. I will spoil that for you. No, that does not happen.

Because part of me was like, this is weird. Yeah. On the other side of that, she looks so much like Taylor Swift in the early seasons and I refuse to hear otherwise. I guess I see that for sure. The facial expressions, like the eyes, the mouth is so Taylor Swift. They have very similar eyes. What is Laurelis really in in real life?

Lauren Graham. Okay. I didn't know that. Yeah. Maybe I did, but like, I didn't. Like, the other one is Alexis. Alexis will go. Yeah, okay.

I know you've, I know you've definitely seen the pacifier. Oh, yeah. Lauren Graham. God. I love the passfire when I was younger. You never did parenthood. No. Yeah, yeah.

She's, parenthood was also great. Moving on, Verity, I will give a B. Now, here's a thing. I keep wanting to say variety. Because did you see Tyler's post? Tyler and T. No, I didn't see. of a review and he initially wrote variety review.

Yeah, yeah. And then he changed it. And so now in my head I just keep going to say variety. I'll give it a B. Yeah. We talked about it. So we talked about this and I've seen more reviews, of course, as people have seen it. And it is certainly all over the map with how people feel about this movie.

I will say I felt fairly confident that critical. critics were not going to be like loving this movie. And I think a lot of that has to do with the source material. And I think that there's a lot of, you know, like the film buffs and the book literature buffs come from a very similar place where like Colleen, Colleen Hoover. They're like, no. Just like we look down on the Colleen Hoover novel, you know. and therefore that leads to them being like, well, let's check the material because of what they're working with.

The book's not going to be any good because the movie's not going to be any good because the book's no good. That felt like a big part of a lot of what I was seeing. And then there's just also so many people that really fucking love this book. It's such a massive book. And I saw so many girls like this is my favorite, favorite, favorite book. And when that happens, I just think you're always a little, disappointed by the adaptation just because if you love, love, love the book here.

Anne Hathaway said that when we were there. She's like, who read the book here and everyone like raised her in? And she's like, I'm afraid of all of you. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Just because there's certain things that they can't put in. And I know I saw a lot of that like all viral videos

of all the things they left out of Verity and like that people are so upset that they left out certain relationships with Lohen and the other kid which objectively speaking I understand because there's going to be a lot of people that go to see this movie who have not read the book

and I think if you went in blind to this movie and you don't really know what's happening there's already things that could be borderline laughable and then if you threw in another kid dying in the movie I think people would have been like well this is just fucking ridiculous and it just reads differently.

It just does. Like in the book, it just didn't seem as outlandish. Right. But I think if you put it in our front of our faces in the movie and they did the whole thing with Harper and then by the way, she not only had one, she had two kids die. You would have been like, all right, like, come on.

It would have, I don't think it becomes less believable. Well, you could have put the two twins together on the boat and killed them off that way together. Right, there could have been a different way. Where, like, they just both die. Yes, yes, yes. Instead of making it like, but you need to have one living.

Right, no, but no, like, have three kids. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And kill the other two on the boat. Right, right, right, right. Like, she went out with all three on the canoe. And only one. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I also don't get why, like, if it's done that way in the book,

you read the book where you like, this is unbelievable. You know? Like, like, why it should be a certain movie. When I read the book, I was like, this is so fucked up. Yeah. Yeah, but like, it's like, you have to, to suspend your belief anyway. No, definitely.

I just think there's something that is very different about reading it versus watching it. And when it's condensed, when it's condensed in a movie, all those things don't have enough time to breathe. Like in a book, there's just more included. So I think in a movie, in order to fit it all in with the time, like, because people were complaining to you that there wasn't enough buildup of Loen and Jeremy. and all of a sudden it's like, they're boom, they're together. But it's like, that's just pacing of a movie and they're trying not to have a three-hour movie.

If it happened in the book, I think in the movie with multiple children's deaths, I think it would have just happened so quickly that you would have been like, whoa, like, it's just like you're being slapped in the face but then you're like, wait a second, this is very different.

Because there were some moments where people like straight up laughed in when we were at the premiere. You know what I'm saying? It seems to be happening in general, though, with movies that are not supposed to be laughed at but people keep laughing. But with this movie, I guess people would argue like,

is that why it's not a good movie? Like, because like, well, you know, re-made this point too is like there's moments where people laughed in obsession when it was like not a laughable moment. People were laughing in obsession. It's not funny at all. You saw prime time. You said people were laughing then. Yeah, but I don't, I won't say like

I can see why there like there were definitely times where I'm like, oh, like this, I feel like you shouldn't be laughing. But I feel like that is part of the director's He probably knew people were going to laugh at these moments, because they're so outlandish. Yeah, yeah. No, I'm sure.

So I know that it's definitely gotten mixed reviews. And then there's also the fact that I think I need to go watch it again. Because in the excitement of being at the premiere, you know, it's, I'm watching the movie. And halfway was just talking to us five minutes before the movie starts. Like you're caught up in it all. And maybe you don't watch it. in the most critical lens,

which I probably wouldn't be doing for this movie regardless. Like, in that sense, I thought Anne Hathie was fucking fantastic in this movie. Really, really good. And I thought that's, there are three great actors who did a pretty incredible job with what they were given, with, you know, the way that this story goes.

And I thought, Anne, really made Verity's whole story so believable because if it was anybody else it could have been really bad like really bad so I fall in the same camp I think it ends up being like a B minus for me

but same kind but it's I left being like that was really good and I know you felt like this was better than Housemade I did yes I think that's because I've seen a lot I've seen a lot of people comparing the two and they felt the opposite.

Well, here's the thing. You are adding the premiere into this and everything be excitement. So I don't know. I don't know. I don't know if I'm a biased or an unbiased viewer of this. So don't trust my opinion. No one's acting was worse than Sini-Sweeney's

And I was inspired because the guy in front of me was watching it, which let me tell you is not a great viewing experience, and I kind of wish, not that I could see. obviously didn't, I've never seen it It's a great movie I didn't know but it was the guy Like I was in I was in D and he was in C A row in front of me

So I could see it through the gap And I kept like looking But then after I press play on mine I was like I had to put a visor up Because I was like ooh I kept looking to see He's the reason why you watched it In the first place Well because I was like

Hugh Jackman, Christian Bill What's this guy watching? Yeah yeah You know? And I was like, oh, it's the prestige. I've never seen him. Go to Vegas. Magic.

All right. But then I was like literally watching like this because I kept look like I just got peeking at his screen. And I felt like I was giving shit away by seeing. Just saw a TikTok of someone who said that the guy next to him spilled water on him by accident. Or like and didn't apologize. And it was kind of a dick about it. So he like saw what movie was watching and purposely like went on his screen. Fast forwarded 15 minutes before his movie to ruin the movie.

Oh my God. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, hey, this guy was probably about 15, 20 minutes ahead of me, and I just kept being like, uh. Because then you would ruin the twist. Yes. And at a certain point, he put the subtitles on. So I was like, oh, man, now I really can feel like I can see everything that's happening.

Really great movie. It's one of my favorite movies. Really great movie, quite a twist. And I really enjoyed it. I mean, that's got to be an A movie, right? Yeah, 1,000%. It is so good. And I, it, I will tell you.

definitely watched it again on a on a big screen because you know on a plane you don't get the whole experience is odd that like one of like christopher nolan movies that like people don't really talk about that much i feel like because it's really really i feel like it's been very trendy really but i just feel like when people are making their like best christopher nal it's never mentioned i saw it a lot i don't see it i saw it a lot because after uh what just what did he just do wow in 15 days it's the 20 year anniversary i'm like what did he just do When The Odyssey came out It was very like everyone was like top 10 Nolan films

I saw it everywhere But like high up Like a lot of people were talking about it I had never seen it That I watched I watched this week's episode of Real Housewives in New York It's been an interesting banter with Haley's just really in the mix

I guess like she wants to talk about John Gosselin That she doesn't want to talk about John Gosselin No one else can talk about Jen Gosselin John Gosselin Aaron kind of threw it in her face in a way that was a little absurd and then sometimes it's like then she projects

everybody else almost like Haley called her boring which is you know not the worst thing to be called but people really fucking hate to be called boring and she was like oh you think I'm boring I think all the shit you pull with John Goss like it's like whoa those two do not equal each other in terms of like I'm boring well you're a fucking slut

yeah yeah like it was like oh whoa everyone at the table was like I don't really know why you had to bring that up like it's like Yeah. Not quite the same. And then I feel like sometimes Aaron gets a little, I hate to use the term, but like a little gas lady in the sense that she's like, well, you talk about it all the time. Like you bring it up. Like it's not my fault that you talk about it all the time.

It's sort of just like distorting reality a little bit. But Aaron is in the mix with everybody. It does make for good TV. I thought the Jessel stuff with Carol. and Bassett was crazy to like talk to Carol about that in a way that like acting like

Carol wasn't her best friend and they like actually knew each other what do you think about Carol and Beset's summer? It's like shut up. Right like talking to her like at the TV show not her real life. Yeah, yeah like it wasn't her like that she didn't actually live it.

And I'll give this last week's episode a I'll give it a C plus. It's good. I'm liking I'm liking Roney right now and I like the new people and we talked about that when Justin Sylvester was on too and we obviously watch Dancing with the Stars

which to be honest Yacht Rock gets I think maybe a B Oh I'd give it a C Yacht Rock not for you It was boring I mean I like Yacht Rock Yeah yeah yeah

But not for Dancing With the Stars Yeah I think I would give this week's episode A C plus C plus I'll give it And then I think that's Oh I'm almost caught up on lanterns I know last night was the finale but I watched

four or five and six I'm up to six now so I only have two left it is very very good I give this show and I'll give these episodes an A minus really good episode five was the one you were talking about

great episode a lot of good action really interesting six I really really like too because you kind of got a little bit more of like the present day what was going on with John, which I thought was, I'm interested to see how it all ties back together for them to end it.

So really enjoying that. And that is, that's it. Okay, I'll give Verity a C. I like the book. It is funny to be that guy who's like, I like the book more when it's the only book I've read maybe last year. You were so hype to say that.

Yeah. I feel like there's no way to say that without sounding pretentious, but it's like, it is like, I feel like it's just hard because it's just the building. yeah there's just not enough time in the movie for a rush Dakota Johnson

I don't think she's ever like blown me away so I watched the first episode of Brothers Oh I watched Mothers And it's like a fun show Like it's exactly what I expected I didn't like love it so far but I only have one episode in

But I'll give it a C plus for now Maybe it'll go up Me too I watched the first two episodes I'll also give it a C plus. Yeah, like it's just, it'll be just a show that I throw on. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then I did watch the finale of lanterns last night,

which I won't spoil anything, but I like the ending a lot because I feel like it teases into the season two. It was more of like a now I'm excited for season two. It wasn't my favorite episode by any means. Yeah. But I think we did get like, we got like a set up situation. Set up, but like we did get a lot of,

context and like information in this episode. But it wasn't like I was on the edge of my seat ever. But great, great show. And I'm assuming it's renewed. I haven't front season two, but I hope so. I don't know if it's been a, if it was, you want to search it? I don't think it's officially been announced.

It says it's officially an early development. So yes. Yeah. But yeah. So now I guess, yeah, I'm down a show now that that's sober. Yeah. But yeah, that's all I got. Great.

All right. That is everything we watch. Can't wait to update everyone my Gilmore Girls journey now that we're here and the secrets out? God, it feels so good. Honestly,
