How are you doing? I'm great. Yeah. I'm having a great. You and Tessa kind of attacked me together. Tag team attacked me about a fashion choice, which we will discuss later. Stay tuned to the end of the episode. Big debate.

There's nothing on Bravo, so it's nothing for me. I'll talk to you guys later.

Pranis going to sit this out. No, you have some thoughts. Well, well, the new trailers for Real Housewives of New York and Salt Lake have dropped. So I just,

I'm excited for the fall. We get the whole cast in New York back. Okay. And I love those ladies, and I love their fashion. Okay. Well, we have been loving,

Love is Blind, UK, maybe my favorite season. I said this about Charlotte. Remember we love Charlotte randomly? But this is, I like this more than Charlotte. Which couples?

I forget it. I just remember saying we like. it. Like, I can't keep up and remember. If I sat down and jog my memory, I could figure it out. But right off the top, I got nothing. But this might be my favorite. I love it so deeply. Well, we have the most couples we've ever had. We've six couples. There's not a ton of conflict. I'm actually just like watching people like navigate. Are we a good match? Not like, can we destroy each other's lives? Yeah, I love these people so deeply. It's so funny because I'm watching Love is Blind UK and reading a Dolly Alderton book, which she is a British writer. So the book is called

Ghosts. We love it so much. And I'm like turning British. Like in my like I'm, it's too much UK content. Wait. Like I feel like I'm starting to want to be part of the slang. I have to tell you, I wrote down. I lost this and I wrote this down for you. I had a huge list of UK slang. Oh. I've been keeping a list of UK slang for you and I literally lost it. I think I'm just going to start incorporating Mad. because they just say mad for crazy. Like, that's mad. And then I love in it.

That's mad, in it? I love all of it. And I had a whole list and I deleted it. Listen, next week. So as we recorded this, I think the weddings will be happening by the time this episode comes out. If you watched it yesterday last night as this comes out, then you know what happens. So we can't really speak on it. But I wanted to give my predictions.

Well, what I wanted to tell you was next week, the reunion air is on Monday. We will record about it for the following snack. but I'll get you my favorite slang words for that episode. Okay, perfect. Okay, so yes, I want to do my predictions because Tessa asked us on the group chat, who do you think will get married? And we will know this now. So I'm right or I'm wrong or I'm half right, whatever.

We'll see where I am out of six couples. So this is what I think right now. Okay, I said Sabrina and Post Malone, also known as Stephen. Raina's number one. Rainey feels personally attacked with. their own. Every time they touch each other, I get upset. So Sabrina and Steven, I said yes. I agree. Yes, to get it. They'll get married. To get married. Yes. Okay, I agree. Bobby and Jalo. I think yes. I think so too. I don't see any reason why they. Her mom. Wouldn't? Her mom. I think that he is a confident ass man and he's like, I can do this.

Yes, I really do like them and I really do like him. Nicole and Benaya. I said yes. That's the one I have a little bit of reservation. I think he loves her so deeply, but I think he's so nomadic. I worry she might have a little hint of doubt, but I still am going to go yes. I'm going to go yes. I do think it's going to come up, though, that he's going to say, I don't, I can't promise you where we're going to live, and she's going to have a lot of doubts, and they're going to make you think she's going to say no, but then she's going to say yes. They're just well matched. Okay. Cat and Ryan. Oh, my God. No, cat. In the text, I wrote everybody who they look like. I was doing so good up until now.

What's his name? Freddie, Freddie. Funeral Freddie. Funeral Freddie, who looks like Ryan. But that stays. No. I think she says no. Actually, he should say no.

Yeah. They both should say no. They both should say no, but I think she actually cuts the cord. Okay. I like your take. Lipstick Tom and Maria. No. But didn't you say, but they continue to date?

Tessa thinks. Is that you? Because I'm with, I think that they will continue to date. I think that Tessa asked me, do you think Tom will go back to Tosh? I think at his core, he thinks that he is better than somebody in the service industry that does make up. I think the way he said that, I think he genuinely means that. I guess it's not something I agree with.

I guess you're welcome to want your partner to have a certain career in life. I don't agree with him. the way that she said, like, I'm not trying to pay his mortgage, like, which I did, I'm not saying I'm faulting her for that. She has a point. I just, there's little things here and there. I'm like, I don't think you are the right match for each other. I think they think about money very differently.

Yeah. Because also she's, she was surprised that he asked her to like pay for ice cream. And I don't think that that's fair. You know, my feeling is like, if we're really going to be like life partners, like, you should be able to pitch in some of the time. I couldn't figure out the ice cream thing. She offered to pay then got mad. I don't think he said, can you pay for this?

The way that they spoke about it, she was like, I picked this up and then later got mad about it. Who knows what went on behind closed doors. But, like, ice cream dates are great for a woman to pick up here and there early on. Totally. If the man is paying for all the dinners, I mean, however you want to work it out in your own relationship and whatever your opinions on it are, I mean, we've shared ours in the past. But I understand you want to be courted. You want to be paid for.

But, like, to not pick up a small thing, like a breakfast or coffees or ice creams, like that goes a long way. like any man will tell you that. You know, like, I'm happy to pay for the dinners and the things that cost more. But like, a refusal to pick up ice cream, I think can be a red flag to a lot of men. The vibe was that she had taken out her car yet and stopped her

and she was like, I didn't like that. So was that a test? Maybe. Okay. Listen, everybody's welcome to have their own boundaries and relationships. And I think that I don't like that he said, I didn't ever saw myself with somebody who does makeup. But plenty of women feel very comfortable saying,

I only want a day guy in finance. I only want a date a person that's a doctor. I don't think it feels fair either way to say I only want this person that does this thing. Yeah. I loved them meeting each other's families. I loved him meeting her family. I didn't know how conservative they were going to be. They embraced him when he hugged her sister.

They were talking about her dad. I like them. I just don't think they're going to make it. And I don't think that they're together now. Yeah. I like them. I also, I like her explaining her culture to him,

giving him a little bit of information. Then they welcome him to the culture through food, which I always think is like the best way in the world to understand a new culture. Yeah. I think that I think that they say no and I think they try to date. Okay. Yeah. We were trying not to deep dive on this because it's going to feel a little bit dated,

but like we can't help ourselves. We love it so deeply. Okay. And then Demi and Timu LeBron. He's giving Timu LeBron. Oh, guys. I love them so much. Protect Demi at all costs.

I love her so deeply. She is just such a wonderful, warm energy. I think she's had such a positive impact on him. him. I think she could not be a better partner to somebody. I could get emotional thinking about it. I just want to say yes. I really want to say yes. I want them to make it. There's a little bit of doubt I have that he might say no, but want to keep dating her. He's not ready. But I could be completely off base. They're the one that I'm like, my desire for them to make it is like overpowering maybe what I think it will actually be. I don't know. I'm just a little clouded. I think in the

preview, they do show her getting into a limo in her wedding dress alone. Alone. But that could be camera tricks. So, okay, I will say, what The Bachelor always tried to do to us was, like, make us think the opposite, you know, they're not the first show to do that. But there is this part that they are showing previews, and it's him saying, like, I just worry if we're just friends, this is already aired by now, so I hate this, but whatever. Maybe not everybody's watched it.

Maybe people have plans last night. And they have lives. But there's this part where- I can't relate. All I've done that with Ashley for weeks has been like, have you watched it? Oh, I was watching on vacation on my laptop and my bed and breakfast. He says, like, I worry that we're just friends and we're not, you know, more than friends. We're not sexually compatible, whatever, which I think the fear that the viewer might have and she might have, even though I think they are fucking.

But maybe they're just playing that. They want to divert us. Like it could just be to trip us up. And that's my hope. Because you hear that and you're like, oh, they're saying no. But again, they could just be trying to trick us. So I'm with you. I 100% agree.

and I hope that I just really want them to end up together. I could see him saying I just feel friend vibes a little bit. Like that last date was just my favorite thing. They're at the arcade. They're just having so much fun. Like that's what you want a relationship to be. You're just laughing together and having the best time. And like that date is like it's really perfect for them because like it couldn't be me.

I wouldn't enjoy like shooting hoops at an arcade and do ski ball. Like I'm not good at that stuff. And like if I went on that date with him, he wouldn't have the kind of fun he's having with her. And so to see them have so much shared fun. on something they both like. I'm like, damn, they're so good together. So my feeling is that if they break up

and it's like she was just a friend vibe, which also like that was her fear in the beginning was that she's always just one of the guys and people aren't going to view her like that, whatever. If they break up, if he ends it, if he decides not to be with her, he will regret it forever. I could cry thinking about this.

I just feel so deeply that like this is who he should be with. And if he doesn't choose that, he's sabotaging himself. and his own future and like he will she will be the one that got away forever and he'll never be able to find a woman that's like makes him feel like that sense of security and playfulness and depth and their conversations and I'm probably reading too much into this but like I feel that no one else I think if they broke up they'd regret it forever it's just them it's just them yeah like I don't think that Tom and Maria are going to like regret it forever Tom's fine Tom DM me no no no I

did listen we post we Stephen did not be on me back the way I'm trying to get in there no we post the lipstick thing the whole we cut the reel about the lipstick and Netflix had cut the reel about the lipstick he had shared it like everybody was on board with this hilarity of this lipstick situation which also so crazy she was a makeup artist we never really brought that up but that's wild like the biggest makeup fail on TV I've ever seen and she's a makeup artist that's very funny so anyway I posted the reel and I just tag him and then he responded to it in my DMs and was like, Ashley, where were you when we needed you? He's so funny.

Like you should have been on set. Listen, I don't think they're together. I don't think they're together. And then Tessa asked, do I think he'll go back to Tosh? And I said, maybe, but I don't see them dating for real. I don't think they're dating now. Maybe they give it a try. I think he's sexually attracted to her.

I don't know that he's, I don't know, he's that into it. Yeah. And guys also he wasn't hitting on me in my DMs. Like I just want to be clear. I just think I thought it would be funny to say. Well, Stephen's not hitting on me. And I'm not single. Well, I'm trying.

Today's Stephen. Then yeah, he is not taking a bait, right? I would take Tom. Tom is like, he makes fun of her in a way that's like my love language. He just like roast her. I see you with Tom. Okay. I'll tell him.

Tom, hit me up. I'll be in London for Thanksgiving. And you guys don't have Thanksgiving there. Wait, yes. And so. You're going there. I know. So Stephen first.

and then second. Tom, okay. And when I saw this in terms story. Tom, don't worry if you're listening. Obviously, we know you're a fan now. And I'll take whichever one of you is available. No, for real, though. I'll be there for a week.

You would take Freddy? A little too close to home. The whole Ryan thing. You would do it. You would do it. Just because he looks like Ryan. Okay, we got to move on. We got to move on.

I just, or unless you're not ready. No, I'm ready. That's it. Stephen, if you're single. All right, you have a few things to say about the Bachelorette. Yeah, so I usually. don't watch. You're so funny. Like, you tell me you like to watch like the last

quarter of sports games. Like, because nothing happens until then. And I feel the same way about The Bachelor. I don't tune in, really, until it's hometowns. Yeah. So I haven't really watched this whole season, even though we love Jen. She was on the show. She's great. I just, I can't hold my attention for that many weeks. One woman dating a million men.

But hometowns was so funny to me. Maybe that's going to be you in London. Yeah, that's what I'm hoping. Okay, Freddie, fuck Mary Kill, Freddie, Stephen. Oh, I love this. I don't know. It's so hard.

I'm going to marry Stephen because I'm in love with him. Okay. I just, I want to be with him forever. I could look at his face forever. Okay. I just, I don't want to hear about his, I don't really want to talk to me. I don't want to hear about gratitude journaling.

Okay. Or breathwork in three parts. But I'm in love with him. Damn it. Now I'm rethinking it, though. Because we don't really have anything in common. So I think I got mine. So.

I have mine. I'm going to marry. Tom. I just think he's hot and he's funny. Yeah. But I'm going to fuck Stephen and there's no time limit on it. I can fuck him a few times, a bunch of times. I have to kill Freddy and I love Freddie.

Send him back to his own funeral home. Because I. They got the funeral locked and loaded. Easy person to kill. Kill him at the funeral home. He's already on site. He's on site. And honestly, it'll feel good to kill somebody looks like Ryan so I can just like put

this down, put this to bed already. It's only been three years. Okay, those are my feelings. Same. Same? Yeah. I think that's just what most people would probably agree. Long term, I need somebody's going to make fun of me.

And I don't think Steven's going to make fun of me. Like, hard. Yeah, I think we're aligned. Okay, great. Yeah. Okay, okay. Bachelor hometowns were just funny to me because of the dates that they picked. So she goes home with four different guys.

And I just want to read you what the four dates were before they go and meet the family. Okay. So first date with Devin, they go to a run club. Okay. I had this on the background. It started super late because the DNC. Shout out to the DNC. It's DNC week, obviously, newsworthy.

So I had it on, but I was like ready to go to bed. So I saw the running. Yes. And it was like, what is this? 30 people. And are they all in matching T-shirts? 30 people with Devin and her on their t-shirts, matching blue t-shirts, which nothing shows sweat more than that color,

ceruley and blue. Right. Gray, but yeah. Was it gray? No, I'm saying gray shows sweat. Yeah, yeah. It was on the level of gray. If I wear gray pants, it looks like, yeah.

You have a vagina swatting. Like a porn. Run club. What if I showed up and I had to go to a run club date? It's so crazy. No one looks hot running. It was so awkward. And he is dripping in sweat.

Yeah. Okay. First date, Devin, run club. Second date. Jeremy, they go to a grocery store and they're bagging groceries together. What the fuck? That's the date. They're like at the grocery store.

They're like paying catch with avocados. And the grocery store's full of people. The groceries are shut down. They're bagging groceries for people in line. They're like trying too hard. The Bachelor is trying too hard to be like, and like here's what your real life would be. It's like, just give it up already.

You were real life with somebody who would be bagging groceries? They're the checkout people. They're behind. What are you saying? She's checking. They work in the register? She's scanning people's groceries. No, she's not.

And he's bagging it. They were not scanning groceries. Yes. What? Why? First they shop for the groceries and then they become the cashier. They have the self bag. No, they become the cashier.

I'm not processing. What are you? This is that. fun. It's not cutesy. It's not cute. They think it's cutesy and it's not cutesy. It's not mindful. It's not mindful of what I want. It's just a little demure. No, it's none of it. It's fucking stupid. So Devin Run Club, Jeremy bagging groceries. Then Jonathan, they go play lacrosse. No. What is happening? I don't know. Can you imagine I showed up for a date and they're like, we're going to go play lacrosse. I feel like the bachelor producers are behind the scenes, like that

meme of the impractical jokers where they're all just laughing, watching back what they made these people do. Fourth Day, she meets Marcus, she has to walk across these train tracks. They're filming her while, and he is on this beach,

I guess it's the shore of the bay. It's all rocks. There's no sand. And they just sit on this bench on this rocky beach in coats because it's not summertime. Where are they? Do you remember where they were?

Is it like a city or a town where there's like nothing to do? Devon was Houston. Because a lot of times you're in someone's small-ass town. There's not a lot to do. Well, they found lacrosse and bagging groceries. But I'm saying if you're in a real city and this is what you send them to do, fuck all the way off. Tacoma, Washington. Okay. There's something to do in Tacoma? Take a hike. There's a million outdoor

activities. Okay. So she has run club, grocery store, lacrosse, train tracks, Rocky Beach. Insane. She sends home Jewish Jeremy grocery store. Okay. Which grocery store Jeremy, like grocery store Joe. I mean, all of these are bad. It's not like he picked the grocery store date. Of all these things, I don't like physical activities, I would actually probably have the most fun scanning groceries. That is so funny. I just, if I had to go to my hometown,

because there's not like so much to do. I mean, there's so much to do with the beach, but like in Samarna Dover, not so much. I mean, my parents live on a big farm. We'd probably figure that out, whatever. You'd just ride a tractor around the farm. You'd just ride the tractor. Yeah, my dad brings out his backhoe.

That's fucking fun, though. It's fun around the tractor. If they were like, you guys got to go down to the Acme, I'd be like, fuck no, we're not going to Acme. And seeing people from high school. I'm bagging their groceries. Absolutely not. I'm the Bachelorette.

Someone from high school comes in. Ashley, is that you? What? Hard pass. But the Giant Eagle in Pittsburgh and people... The Giant Eagle. I'm like, you have your Giant Eagle card. Sorry, you can't check out without your Giant Eagle card.

Right. We're at the Food Lion. So she sends home groceries. That's a deep cut. People don't even know about Food Lion. No, I know Food Lion. You know Food Lion? Uh-huh.

We have Aldi and Giant Eagle in Pittsburgh. Who came up with the name Food Lion? And they were like, nailed it, send it. Food Lion. So you not only save money on groceries in our store, you save money on groceries in our warehouse. And at Food Lion, we save, you save. Yeah.

And make that logo a lion with its tongue out. It's so random. Well, Pittsburgh is the giant eagle. Right. What the fuck do eagles have to? You can't even eat an eagle. What does it have to do with anything? You eat a lion?

Rina. Yeah. All right, let's keep. It's just funny, like, why lion? Like, what if it was food tiger? Yeah, but like a lion is like legit. It's the king of the jungle. Okay.

Like an eagle? Right. It's a king of grocery stores. It's not. Right. The eagle? A giant. They're like, not just an eagle, they'll make it giant.

Yeah, but did it come out of Philly? No. Gobert. Pittsburgh has nothing to do with that. That would make sense. It would make sense if it was like a Philly and eagle brand. Yeah. No.

The giant eagle is so random. What are other stupid grocery store names? Someone was like, let's name it eagle. They're a scary bird. Somebody's like, no, no, no,

make it big. A giant eagle. Like when the scientists were naming daddy long legs. And I love that meme. And it's like, we'll call him long legs because he has long legs

and the other scientists is like not kinky enough. Okay, all right. Okay. And for the show that has swept the nation that you and I have not really watched. I'm so sorry guys. Love Island.

Tessa is our Love Island correspondent. Take it away. What's happening? It was good. The reunion. Which is what? A first reunion ever? I don't know.

This is a first season I've watched. So I can't compare this to past season, but it's about three weeks removed from everything that happened. The four final couples were there and they brought literally everyone that ever was on the island that came this season back to like most. They'll have air time. But they addressed the nudes that leaked. That was what that like porn video? Yes. The girl basically, I mean everyone offended.

Kendall, I think, because he was one. But the girl that he was paired up with Nicole, she was trying to victimize herself. I was like, he lied to me about like, I mean, it was crazy who he sent it to. I think that was like, it was really, he wasn't smart about it. But he, she was crying the entire time,

made the entire thing about her and was like, which I just think was crazy. And the internet's kind of just like, turned off on her now. Okay. She made his revenge porn about her. Yes. Okay.

That was while Cordell got his Cheezet, sponsorship, which was his life goal. Okay. So very. exciting about that. Congrats. He's like on the box, right?

Like, isn't he? I haven't seen the official one, but I've seen videos of him being like I got the cheese hits. Everyone's like very happy for him because that was his life goal. But is that just,

is that the thing people made? Or is he actually going to be on a box? Is he on the box? Yeah. Oh yeah. You can order. Boxes of Beckham's favorite flavors with his face on them.

Okay, white cheddar and hot and spicy cheese it. And yeah, he's on the box. I love it. Okay. Or Dizzy cheesy couple. That's the name of his. Okay.

Cheez it sponsorship. Kayla and Aaron are officially, spoiler, broken up, which is everyone saw it coming because he was the one that they fought for five hours to six hours before the filming of the reunion. So they delayed filming by that much. That is insane. What did they fight about for so many? So he revealed at the reunion that he had stuck his hands down the Casa Moore girl that he hooked up with pants. And he had been lying about it and like lied about it obviously for weeks. Light about it during movie night.

Light about it during the show. Light about it post, whatever. I think she found out that day. Oh my God. It's hard to comprehend five, six hour delay, a five, six hour fight. Like, I'm exhausted just thinking about it. Also, what do you, Jailo? I'd be like, let's speed this up.

We're going to have this fight on stage. Right, like, how does this work? Like, everyone's staying around. They're like, we have to let them finish this fight. Like, it's so crazy. You think this would be like 20, 30 minutes, an hour. Five to six hours delay. Everyone's got hair and makeup and you have to let this couple fight.

What do you mean you have to let them fight? Are they in an alley somewhere? Are they in a green room? Like, what am I missing here? That seems crazy to me. But, like, Ariana's there, correct? Ariana Maddox is there. Arguably the most famous person in the country.

And they delayed filming for five to six hours for these people. I'd be like, do you know who I am, Ariana? But they had to, what, let him work it out? I'm so confused on this. I don't. No one knows why, but they just know that filming was delayed. Okay. And it was just, and they finished their fight on camera.

Great. She was like, we're over. Okay. Okay. Got it. And then, yeah, I think the funniest part, too, is Janay brought out note. She was like, some, she's like, brought transcripts from after signs and she had, like, had her questions ready. She was honestly a better host and Ariana hot take because Ariana

wasn't really doing much and Jenae was like holding people accountable, asking questions and just like her notes was. What? Can I say two things about that? I mean, prepare for the job you want. So Ariana has been on a, not quite a, she was not on 11 seasons of Vanderpump, but I think nine seasons. I'm surprised because she's been to so many reunions that she wouldn't be better at it. I mean, it doesn't necessarily mean... It doesn't translate. You could be interviewed 100 times. It doesn't mean you can interview somebody else.

Totally. But the thing that surprised me is I would think that everybody that's in the middle of a reunion would have receipts and notes. And I never, you never see it. I've watched 100 Real Housewives' reunions. Summer House, Vanderpump, everything. I've never seen somebody pull out notes. Once in a blue moon, I'm talking maybe two times ever. People have pulled out a piece of paper.

I've been like, I have proof. Is that? The way I would be there with my notes. Not one person ever. They're just raw dog no notes. No notes. Literally no notes. Every once in a blue moon, people will pull out a receipt.

It is so, one time on Beverly Hills, one time on New Jersey are the only two times to come to mind that I've ever seen somebody pull a receipt. I'm rolling up with a clipboard. I'm going to have those boxes that people keep like huge like files in. Yeah, I'm rolling up, wheel out the VCR. Totally. I have a presentation. Would you like to see my deck?

Yeah. Totally. She'll fire up the projector screen. I have a laser pointer. So she won the reunion for me. Okay. We're just going to take a quick break and then get into other topics. I am so excited to tell you guys about bowl and branch. This is a brand new partner of ours. And I am obsessed with these sheets. So first of all, the unboxing experience. Did you get yours? Yeah, I love it. This is a beautiful box. Fantastic. Obviously, I got them for myself, but to gift, I mean, gift yourself something. You know, treat yourself or give them to someone else. But honestly, the unboxing experience was incredible. And they really can provide. you with a cooler sleep. I've talked about this before so much. I am a hot sleeper.

hardware. I love cooking with this so much.

It's the easiest cooking in the world. They have this naturally slick surface, which means minimal oil or butter is needed for things like eggs or things like searing proteins. And then the cleanup couldn't be simpler. I literally just take like a paper towel and just go around it a couple times, and it's clean. It looks beautiful. It looks beautiful. beautiful and stylish.

Very de Muir, very mindful. This has swept the internet, and it even took me a day or two to catch up because I sent you something and I was like, I saw somebody cutting a croissant and not getting crumbs on the floor.

And I was like, what the fuck is this bitch doing? But if you've seen this on the internet, very demure, very mindful. So if you're not familiar if we're talking about this comes from Jules LeBron. She is a TikToker and made this video about getting dressed for work. And talking about the hair and makeup and clothing. she wears for work and it just took off. I mean, I find it so fascinating the way things take off and she's made more sense, but we're just going to play the original one for you.

Again, she goes by Jules LeBron, Julie, Annie, and we'll post this, obviously. You see how I do my makeup for work? Very demure. Very mindful. I don't come to work with a green cut crease. Don't look like a clown when I go to work. I don't do too much. I'm very mindful while I'm at work.

See how I look very presentable. The way I came to the interview is the way I go to the job. And she's since done more and then cutesy has become a word too and then demuretsy. Like people have just, so we just wanted to talk about it and we have some funny things that we crowd sourced from you guys. But I think it's really funny because this is not a word that I've ever related to. I'm leaning in because it's like a fun trend to be like very demure, very mindful. But even when I got, we were in Jackson Hole and I got dressed, I was like this outfit is the opposite of demur. I'm wearing a fucking cowboy hat, a big belt buckle.

cowboy boots. It's brat. It's brad. It's the antithesis of demure. Brat. But I was saying, like, of course, we're going to talk about Brat versus Demir. These are like two of the themes of the summer. Or, you know, maybe Brat was summer. Demir is transitioning into fall. But the definition, you know, of demure can be more shy and just reserved. It can be coquettish. And it's something that obviously people can use to be like patronizing. It can use to kind of like silence women, you know, but I think this whole trend is like, it on its head, obviously, and we're like taking ownership of it. But the antonyms of it via the dictionary are like outgoing, extroverted, social, sociable, bold, uninhibited. Like, those are words

that I resonate with more. Yeah, of course. So I just think it's funny. I mean, you and I started a podcast to talk about all of our thoughts and feelings. And sometimes I'll be like, the last couple days, I'll be like chopping vegetables in my kitchen and I'll be like, very demure. Very mindful. Like I'll hear it in my mind. But yeah, it's sort of the antithesis of me. I mean, I never had a thought. I didn't think the whole world should hear. No one's ever said, like, she's so mysterious. I wonder what's going on with her. Yeah. Like, I envy people that can be like that's not me. So I wanted to ask you, do you feel like you have something in your life that you're very demure with? Well, I posted last night because I was just like, as the sunset, I sat outside and like a nice little cardigan. I read a book about

Nantucket. Yeah. Very demure. In the morning, I am very mindful. I don't look at either one of you or Tessa's text messages. I usually run 9 o'clock because the time I check in, spent about two hours being very mindful. I had my coffee. I have a little bite to eat. I answer emails. I return all my packages. I'm very mindful in the morning. Well, what I had posted was my vibrator. And I think it's very demure. When I travel and masturbate, I bring our Lucy 2 with just one of the silicone sleeves. And it's very cutesy. And it does not have all the bells and whistles and being very mindful. It just sticks in my carry-on. And I just feel like that's the very demure, mindful, cutesy way, is to masturbate with the Lucy, the neon Lucy, which is also Brad. And this is from our company

vibes only. And that is my little travel bullet that just fits in my purse and can go anywhere. And I think that is the most demure, mindful, cutesy way to masturbate. It is so cutesy of you. Yeah. I was not even going to tell you this, but I had the opposite happened to me. I went going through security check, you were already through. And I had to go through and my bag tipped over and all the condoms in my bag. Condoms. Because I said I was going to fuck a cowboy, Ashley, so I brought condoms. I haven't used a condom in.

Hold on. This is the first time hearing of your condom hall. You brought a bunch of condoms to Jackson? I brought them to Daxon. I put them in my base bag. The bag tipped over. And when I pulled the bag up off of like the security belt, all the condoms came out into the little bin.

No, into the bin. So I had to pick them up. Not to mirror. The kind of pick up my condoms out of the bin. Just raw dog condoms in the bin. Condoms. And then I picked up one and then the other ones fell out. Like it's a grab bag.

I had you go in twice and get condoms. This is insane. Okay. So not very mindful. Not very demure. You did not pack them very mindfully. Not very cutesy. Okay.

So we asked our audience, first of all, are you being more demure or more brat this summer? So we talked about Brat, we talked about it at the very beginning of the summer, and that just is the opposite of demure. And 66% said demure. I was surprised by this. And 34% said Brat. But also, it could just because it's what's trending right now. You know, like, maybe you're demure now. You were brat before. You know, like, we have multitudes. We're dynamic, women. We can be it all. You know why it came out like this? We posted this on Monday. If you posted this on a Saturday, you would get more brad. More brad. Mondays, Mondays are demure. Okay. Mondays are being demure. Okay. And then we asked you guys what's the most demure thing you've done recently. Only had one glass of wine at dinner. I've never related. I've never related less than anything.

So some of these were not demure, which I think is funny. I think people are like, I just want to tell you what I'm up to. Got eaten out at home before my family dinner. But I guess that's more demure than getting eaten out at the family dinner. At dinner. Yeah, at dinner. Totally. She didn't get eaten out at dinner. Yeah, very demure. I stocked my exes Venmo and didn't spiral about it. Very demure. Very mindful. Okay. This is a good one. Scrubbed all my makeup off post-post wedding. 4 a.m. before going to sleep. If you do your makeup routine when you are drunk, very, very mindful. Yeah. I brought wine and cheese to a music festival. Very cutesy. Oh my. And if not drugs, registered to vote. Very mindful. Very mindful. Listen to GGE at work and keep my cackles to a minimum. Very demure. But I think you should be more brat about it. Just let it out. Yeah. Gigi is brat. I bought my first bottle of Lelabo. Okay. Very demure. Very demure. Very demure.

You're a cutesy. Ironed my shirt. I normally just throw my stuff in the dryer for a few minutes. Wow. That's grown up. Yeah. Charge my phone while I slept. That's Ashley.

I had a bath midday on my lunch break, a pro for being a work from home bitch. Midday bath. That's getting unemployed. Very to mirror. It's very mindful. I was wondering what you thought about this. This took me a second. Swallowing instead of spitting.

Huh. Because swallowing could also be. be very brat. Yeah. Like, look at me. I'm a bad bitch. But also, not making a mess. Very demure.

Very demure. Okay, I have to think about this. Swallowing is demure. But it's also like, spitting it back in his face is brat. Yeah, but I just like hold it in my mouth and spit it in the thing. I don't, yeah, I do that. Run to the bathroom with it like in your bottom lip. Yeah, I do that.

Tobacco. Yeah. Like, it's chew. Like, it's chew. I do that. Okay. Yes. I think I'm going to confirm that.

swallowing his demure. It's like Brad Demir. It's just, it's, it's the co-mingling of energies. But even finishing a blowjob in general, Brad. Brat. No, Brat is, I don't know. I can't decide. It's Brat is like, like, are blowjobs to smear? Sucking his dick for a few seconds and then sitting on his face. That's Brat. That's Brad. Yeah, I'm done with this. I think I'm done with this. Yeah. It's time to go to the club. Well, enjoy the rest of Demir Brat summer. You guys. Okay, well, we're just going to take a really quick break and then get back into it.

And this is Sarah Blakely's newest venture.

So Sarah Blakely, founder Spanks, just an icon, an innovator, a disruptor, a queen. Yes. Before we get in this conversation, we owe Sarah Blakely everything. Yes. she's the original shapeware slimming shapewear I mean I really know her whole story I've met her because of

Atlanta when I used to live in Atlanta I remember going to this event it was Richard Branson and Sarah Blakely I was 22 21 I didn't even really know the magnitude of being around those people it was nuts so I've always just known and obviously their HQ their headquarters are in Atlanta and so I feel like a connection

to her and the brand because of that I lived there for so long and I just know a lot about her but I mean regardless it's like Spanx it's like a household name. I mean, she really is like such an icon. Astonishing. I recommend listening to how I built this about her. She's great. And I love all of their stuff. I wear the air essentials all the time. All my

sweat pants is from Spanx. That being said. Yeah. So she has been teasing this product and it's called sneaks and it's like a high-heeled sneaker. And she is saying like someone needs to invent a comfortable high-heel. And she launched the product.

This was last week, I guess. She teased the release. And we're pulling this from an article. in the cut that the title is what in the Skechers is this. And it says that she has been working on this for nine years. Should I gave it the 10th year. I think it should have stayed in year four. And I think it should have made it past COVID. Like I just feel like I like the idea nine years ago.

Like this feels like we don't need this now. We're wearing sneakers a lot more, especially post-COVID. We're just wearing sneakers. Sneakers to the club, sneakers to work, get over it. You know, we want to be comfortable. that's our priority. It's like self-care, you know, and living your truth. And if we're going to power through a heel, we're going to wear a cute heel. You know what I mean? Like, if you're like, I'm making a decision, I'm going to do that. Like, I feel like we don't need this hybrid in 2024.

Yeah, I don't, I don't really know what itch this scratches, right? Like, I just, I feel like sneakers have become such the thing. That's what I want to wear out to dinner. I want to, like, incorporate, like, sambas with, like, a sexy silk dress. Like, to me, that's what. That's what. We're what's really sexy today is wearing, like, a bodycon dress with samba. Or a fucking bomb-ass heel. We still wear heels. I mean, you know, and then there's that company that they have the heel and then the heel folds up and it turns them into a flat.

Yeah. Have you seen these? I've seen ads in Instagram. I find it, like, very innovative. Like, if you were a person who wants to wear a cute heel and can't power through a heel all night, we have better innovations at this point in time. Yeah, I don't know. This doesn't, they're also ugly.

I mean, the all great. green and the all white. They're also $500. So these are $400 or $500. I think you might be listening and being like, okay, well, how much are that? You know, maybe I'll dabble. For that price point, you can buy, you're close to buying a pair of Lumpetons at that price point.

You're buying a nice pair of Stuart Whiteman's. Totally. What are we doing with this? And I mean, if you're wondering what these look like, by the way, they do look like sketchers, they look like a sneaker with a sletto heel. Yeah. Like a spiky thin stiletto. And I'm going to be honest, a part of the thing.

me when I first saw these. I was like, I might rock these. I want to try them on. I want to see how I feel. But conceptually, it feels like the moment has passed. I just feel like this is a crazy thing. Also, why did it take nine years? I mean, I'm sure Sarah knows what she's doing. We launched a whole vibrator company in one year. Okay. And then by the way, the company I was thinking of, it's called vice versa. And there might be some others out there. But yeah, they just, these heels fold in and then you're wearing like acute flat. So I just wanted to like shout them out. I have this thing from Kate Kennedy. I pretty much always co-s sign everything Kate Kennedy says. Her podcast is Be There in Five. She's been on Girls Got to Eat.

And I just always, she's so well spoken and articulate. And I love the way that she was talking about this. She was the first person I saw to even, I didn't know about it until she was posting about it. And she was talking about sneaks and just saying like, this is interesting from Sarah Blakely. Like, I'm just like, we kind of would have expected more. If you heard Sarah Blakely was working on something for nine years and this is what you get. Well, like everything she does. Yeah. I buy all of her shit. Right. So Kate Kennedy says, I feel like this is a problem that women were more concerned about in the Carrie Bradshaw, a woman's right to shoes era, where heels were personality type for girly girls, similar to how liking pizza tacos and or ironic mustache merch became

a personality type for not like other girls in 2012. For the record, I have been both of these people. I still like heels, but we are in a more casual world where they aren't as big of a mascot for femininity, and I'm dying to see if they did demand forecasting and confirmed with data that this is a white space, or if it's a classic case of just because you can, doesn't mean you should. Again, I think it kind of is what we're saying where it doesn't feel like the time is right. It just feels like the moment has passed of like the girlies need this. I wonder if they did market research and people did ask for this. And I'm always surprised when you and I put a poll up about merch and what people want and what people ask for what versus what they purchase. It always really surprises me

because I think that sometimes people submit overly like they want this thing that you and I will post about. For example, a blow gel flavor with vibes only. But the buying patterns don't reflect. necessarily what people always say that like I can see people be like yeah that's crazy do it but they're not going to buy it and they're not going to buy it at that price point yeah I just feel like this is giving 2019 and I feel like we've moved past this era and we're going to wear heels or we're going to wear sneakers and we just don't need the hybrid and we'll see but I mean Sarah Blake who am I to criticize Sarah Blakely's business decisions nobody a customer oh that's true uh I've just feel so somebody, there's a comedian in this article that's quoted that says, but are they going to

make a cute one? Like, I feel that if I'm going to be as uncomfortable as I am in a stiletto, I'd like it to be fly as fuck. And that's not this. Yeah. Okay. Okay. So I'll see. I continue to support everything else she does, but for this one, I'm out. And while we're on the topic of fashion, Raina has something she wants to rant. And you guys have been really against me on this. Okay. So you're a Lulu Lemon Girlie. I'm an Allo Girlie. I buy the most aloe. I'm like, well, I have alo, yeah. Yeah, but not as much. Not as much.

Yeah, yeah. It's my whole personality. Yeah, and I'm more Lulu. And my whole outfit is alo. I have this like, alo black t-shirt on and these black pants. And these pants are like, wear them out pants.

Yeah. Like I'd wear them with like, I've wear them with a heel. With a sneaker heel. A sneaks. I just, I don't understand the decision making behind Allo and where they put their logos.

It's just, they're like, make it as conspicuous as humanly possible. And on the back of these black pants that are not workout pants. They're like, put a cute heel on with them. there was a giant white logo in the middle of my calf.

And it's on black pants, a huge white logo. And Ashley and Tess are like, it's not that team. I don't agree with you. No one's going to notice that. So a couple, let me pull out a couple of buzzwords. You said the most conspicuous thing ever. Ever. And you said giant logo.

And I just can't. I don't understand. We're looking at the same thing. Yeah. Most conspicuous thing. It's tiny. And it's on the back of your. leg and yes it could have been in black but their whole point is like we want you to see the logo that's

what we do it's not Gucci yeah like it's not prodda I understand Prada's like you paid five thousand dollars she's stupid pants I think they are they have a Prada complex they do I just think it's like you're like it's so because you know I'll tell you this one thing you know it looks really stupid right now I'll raise you that alo logo and tell you about the blue set I have which is a couple years old I'll post a picture. Blue leggings, blue mock turtleneck, sleeveless, like, built in bra, tight top. Yeah.

The logo's here. Right here. On my neck. On my throat. What's the logo is? Allo? Allo, right here. On my neck. Yeah, I think that's ridiculous. That's crazy. That's crazy. This is on the back of your leg. Okay, it's not in the back of my leg. And I'm sitting with my legs crossed and it's, you can see the whole load. You are really bothered.

What if I'm sitting at dinner and I'm just there and I'm crossed and there and there's a giant white aloe logo. I don't need people to know these are from alo while I'm just at dinner and it's white. You're wearing a cute Lulu Lemon skirt and the logo's black on your black skirt. Typically all my Lulu Lemon aligns. The logo is what? It's in white. It's noticeable and it's on the back. It's on like the small your back. They did this right because they're like she might wear this out to dinner. So we're going to put the logo on here, but we're going to make it black on black. And I'm with you. That should have been black. I just think it's the way you're speaking about it. It's in the middle of my leg. Ashley, it's in the middle of my calf on the back.

They were just like, put it in the dumbest place humanly possible. Where would you prefer it? At the top on the small of your back. You want it up there? Yeah, because you could put a belt on with it. There's belt. You're going to belt those. There's bell loops.

You're going to belt those parachute pants. It's more, it's easy to hide. Okay, I can put a shirt over it. You're not going to belt those. I could. I could if I felt like it. You want it up in the middle. You're acting crazy.

I don't want it in the middle. You're acting crazy. I don't want a white aloe logo label in the middle of my calf. middle. In the middle. It's in the middle of my leg. Listen, I cannot believe the two of you. I can't believe. I feel like you agree with me and you're just fucking with me to get a rise out of me. I swear to God, I'm not. I can't believe we are so unaligned about this. This is bananas. Did you text about this before? And Ray is going to bring up that giant stupid logo. The way he's, make fun of her. The way you speak about it. It's like, I see it. I'm like, tiny little logo,

Inconspicuous place. It's not inconspicuous. Can you believe the way they've branded me. It's a giant white logo. Bring a black. Giant. Measure that shit. Well, let us know you guys. Again, you got to watch on YouTube and weigh in in the comments if you think that this is the most conspicuous thing.

Yes, I don't want. It looks so stupid. It looks stupid. You know what? If I paid like $4,000 for Prada pants, put a giant Prada triangle over my pussy. Put it everywhere. Put it on both of my nipples. I don't care if I paid that amount of money.

But this is just like a $100 pair of pants that I'm going to wear out to the club with those sneakers. Yeah, with the sneaks. And I don't want a giant white aloe logo on it. Okay. I mean, I, again, am not totally in agreement with you, but I do feel that they should have made it in black like this. And I do have an issue with their logo sometimes, that one that was on my fucking

neck. Yeah. Looks crazy. Black, put it on my pussy. I don't care. No one's going to see it. All right, guys, well, let us know. How stupid this looks.

You guys know it looks. You guys know it looks. Well, Tessa had a good point. because you are so much smaller than us, it is taking up more service area on your overall body. So to be fair, me and those pants is smaller. Because you're a foot taller. Yeah.

I'm more body. You are more body. Yeah. Like who's even looking back there? At your calf. I'm just so, I'm just laughing, thinking about Raina at dinner,

just looking down, getting more pissed off. I wore these out and Jackson a hole. I was pissed the whole time. Yeah. But I'm with you. Like pants that I want to wear out, I don't want an athletic logo on them.

Yeah. It looks ridiculous. Yeah. Thank you. Okay. All right. So you do agree with me. So we are aligned.

We are aligned for being very mindful. Lehmine leggings. Very demure. It's not demure. It's not demure. That is. No one wants this. It's aloe.
