Starting point is 00:00:01 This week on the snack, Drake, Taylor Swift, Bethany Frankl, Alex Cooper, and Tom Brady. This is a Dear Media production. Enjoy. Hi, guys. Hi, welcome to the orgy. All those names. I was like, let's just do names. And then we were going to do three.
Starting point is 00:00:19 And then I was like, just do four. My working title is also Bethany Frankel picks a fight with an innocent bystander and men are crushing watermelon with their thighs. I cannot wait to talk about the horniest thing I've seen on the internet in a while. Besides your clip with Mike Lenocchi. So, Ray on one of those podcasts, you teased it and said you were being cute to go record with this guy.
Starting point is 00:00:42 And he's a comedian in L.A. And he's really funny. And the clip is making waves. I was surprised, you know, really surprises me because, like, him and I just, like, floated throughout the clip. He has this show called, should we date? Is that what it's called?
Starting point is 00:00:55 You're like, I don't know, you did the show. And he invites girls on every week. And it's some friends of his, some new friends. friends and basically interviews them to date him. It's a very funny concept to me. But the comments are so interesting because him and I are just like joking back and forth. I'm clearly like I'm laughing.
Starting point is 00:01:11 My body has turned towards him. The body language says like we're having fun. You're into it. Yes. You can tell. Yes. And the comments are kind of split. Like people think he's like really nagging me and like being that nice.
Starting point is 00:01:22 And I was like voice noting with him last night. And I was like, it's so. Oh, everybody. They were voice noting. This is the first time I'm hearing. I saw one text. This is not a launch in any way. I'm sure he's dating and sleeping with other people.
Starting point is 00:01:35 This is, he's a nice person. He's for somebody else. But I was like, it's so interesting to me that like some people digest this is negging because like the biggest love language in my life is like make fun of me. I want you to know me well enough to make fun of me. And other people digest it through their own lens and probably like, I don't like to be teased like that. I don't like to be talked to like that by my partner.
Starting point is 00:01:56 They take it too far. Like I love it. All my friends make fun of me. I hung out two of my best girlfriends besides you last night. All we did was make fun of each other for hours. Yeah. So my vows are going viral. It's so wild, Ashley.
Starting point is 00:02:09 As we record my video, there's a clip from my special, but then it goes into my vows. They're related. It's talking about my husband not being my best friend. And it's at like 25 million views probably now between Instagram and TikTok. It went really viral on Instagram and like semi-viral on TikTok. And I would say 90% of the comments are positive. And this is so funny. I actually didn't even anticipate negative ones because I'm like, how can you not like this?
Starting point is 00:02:34 I thought the headline was like, brides, unusual vows go viral for like how creative and funny they are. But also this whole relatable concept of your man's not your best friend. Also my face the whole time. I don't know what I look. Rain is a huge part of it. The egg carton is in there. The egg carton's a paid actor. And it's just, it's a perfect real.
Starting point is 00:02:53 Anna's in the room. Anna helped. We workshoped it together and added a little flare to it. And it's perfect. It's the best thing I've ever posted. It is my whole personality in one. You got the go birds at the end, all the things. But I have noticed a few that people don't like it.
Starting point is 00:03:08 And it's because they call their partner their best friend. They said it in their vows. They think I'm being mean. They think I'm being disrespectful. Meanwhile, Shishon's laughing the whole time. I don't need to defend this, you guys. If you're going viral, people will hate it. You can't please everybody when you're that many people are seeing something.
Starting point is 00:03:24 But it is interesting, just the few negative ones. And people are like, this isn't funny. Yeah, it is. Yeah, I think it is. I think you're actually in the minority. But it is interesting. Again, the complete majority. And then there's these few people that are like, I don't like it because it is like personal to me.
Starting point is 00:03:43 Yes. But I think for vowels are so interesting because like you know your partner better than a stranger knows your partner. So listen, we've seen one vowel. One couple had a bat shit crazy. He was so sweet. And she was just up there roasting him. She did a full roast. I was sitting there like, is this okay?
Starting point is 00:04:02 Should we be here? Yeah. And I think there was one comment I saw it. If he said this to her, yeah. Yeah. But he did it. Not everything as if a man did it. And you have to balance it because, yes, we saw vows that she wrote, they're since divorced.
Starting point is 00:04:17 Right. They're divorced now. And they were funny. But there wasn't the balance as much as like, you're the love my life. I mean, I'm taking my own words. I'm like, you're the love of my life, like, also. You've got to balance. You took us on waves in it, too, because, like, even when I was up there, when you were, like,
Starting point is 00:04:36 you're not my best friend, you were like, you're the love of my life. And I was like, oh, it was like a jump scare for me for a second. I was like, that's so sweet. And you're like, here's to a lifetime of copies. And then you say, go birds. And it's like, I don't know, like what. It's like, it's so many ups and downs. It's so fun, you know?
Starting point is 00:04:51 Thank you. And I think that people are like, wait, what? But, like, he's clearly in on it. Oh, my gosh. His facial expression. And if he didn't look happy, I wouldn't post that. He's surprised. He thinks it's funny.
Starting point is 00:05:01 And then he, I mean, it's just, I'm just so proud of it. Everybody's tagging Kylie Kelsey. And so you guys, if you, Kylie, if you're listening, I met your husband at the game last fall. I told him we want to have you in the podcast. So if you're listening, just at any time, let us know. Our wishes for this episode are Kylie Kelsey on the show. And what am I going to wish for? What should I be?
Starting point is 00:05:24 Aqua to get back together. We'll get to it. Michael Nogic finds a girlfriend. I hope it's... It can't be me, but he seems great. I don't want to say. I hope to say he's wonderful. I don't know him like that.
Starting point is 00:05:34 I wanted to add something in. I don't care. I met him. We met him one night, many years ago, whatever. But I was in the green room with him not too long ago. Like, probably last year, actually. I wasn't married yet. I was engaged.
Starting point is 00:05:47 And there was another comic in there, Mark Hayes, and he and I were talking. He was like, congrats to you on your engagement, when you're getting married, all this stuff. Michael Notchi's in the room or whatever. And then shortly thereafter, he did start flirting with me. He's just such a flurring. He's so flirtatious.
Starting point is 00:05:57 I mean, his whole podcast is, should we date. He brings women on to see if they should date him. He's flirting with me. Mark Hayes laughs in his face. He goes, dude, she's engaged. We've been sitting here talking about it. She's wearing her ring. Like, roast him.
Starting point is 00:06:09 It was so funny, and he was such a good sport about it. It was just the funniest thing to have another dude be like, bro, my guy. Another man checking him. I'm sure he's like, this hasn't stopped other women before. This faithful dork. She's just going to stay with her husband. That's so true. He's like, I don't care.
Starting point is 00:06:28 I'm not engaged Shore. I don't give a shit. Okay, let's like our partner. All right. Thank you to Lola Blankets.

And before we get into our real report, just a weather report, we are here in New York in the middle of this heat wave 95 degrees as we record. And it feels like the vibes are so high. I love summertime in New York. But this weekend, Memorial Day weekend, is going to be dog shit. And I told you guys I was going to Boston. I was going to go to my first Red Sox game.
Starting point is 00:07:23 We're probably not going to go. I know. Why? Because it's like going to be 60 degrees. and probably rainy. On Sunday we were going to go on Sunday. And like, that's not the experience I want to have. I don't care about baseball.
Starting point is 00:07:33 I wanted to have the nice experience in the summertime weather. So you guys messaged me a lot and we're like, oh, my God, it's so exciting. You're going to Fenway and I don't know if we're going to go. It's such a bummer. It's like so iconic. I wish like this 90 degrees even, I obviously don't love it. I hate being hot, but it was like the weekend. How amazing would that have been?
Starting point is 00:07:51 Just like a summery hot Memorial Day weekend. We're going to go back to New England this summer. I love New England so much. so much. I'm committed to a Newport trip with you. Yes. So anyway, pray for us in this heat and have fun this weekend you guys have run the East Coast. Oh, whatever. Oh, I'm in Charlotte tonight. If you guys want to come down to
Starting point is 00:08:07 the zone, come down to the comedy zone. There's some tickets left. And tomorrow night, Atlanta, I'm at City Winery. And Neil Reddy is opening the show for me. And our second show ever was in Atlanta, right, in that room? And he was on the show. So it's very nostalgic. And obviously, you lived there for many years. So I'm very excited to be there. It's brandagrebber.com. We'll see you this weekend. Yes, Neil is amazing. When I started doing comedy, he was so wonderful to me. He was in the very first season of Queer Eye.
Starting point is 00:08:30 Crazy. The reboot. Yeah. Okay. Well, let's get into our snack. We have a music report. So much stuff is happening in the music world this week. Yes, with these musical artists.
Starting point is 00:08:42 Music related and not related. So let's start with a singer, but the news is not related. This Taylor Swift's wedding invitations, quote unquote. Yeah, so people are saying that she is having non-traditional wedding invitation. She's calling people. It's so crazy to me. I mean, listen, you and I are team, like, no wedding invitations. You and I are, like, team email the wedding invitations.
Starting point is 00:09:05 Yeah, it's just too much admin for me, but I'm upset. I wanted Taylor Swift to have eight different wedding invitation variants, like The Life of a Showgirl vinyl covers, and a commemorative cardigan. But do you think of the wedding? People get merch. Taylor Swift, she's this master of imagery. And poetry, you know, like I wanted to see her wedding invitations of anybody. I would have liked to see them.
Starting point is 00:09:31 And I wanted to see eight different variants. Well, I don't understand anything she does. She doesn't need to call people for her wedding invite. She doesn't need to dress like that. But she's just like, she doesn't have her bangs like that. But she's just like, I'm going to tailor. Raina, that's on my notes. And we need to talk about this.
Starting point is 00:09:45 Okay. So her and Travis have been out and about in New York City. They had like five nights in a row. They went to via Corona. They went to Oresh. They also went to the 86. The same night you went to the 86. No, the night after.
Starting point is 00:09:54 Next night. So we went to the 86, which is the incredible hardest reservation to get right now. And she'd been there the night before. But when we left, the street was blocked off because she was at via Corota. And I guess people were like parked and blaring Taylor Swift music. We thought there was like a shooting. I mean, the streets were blocked off. And people were in the streets.
Starting point is 00:10:12 The Uber driver didn't know what to do because she was at the restaurant. She's got to get out of the West Village. Okay. I'm trying to always eat in the West Village. No one could go anywhere in the West Village anymore. Her outfits, two out of ten. One of them was actually great. That outfit with the khaki pants and the.
Starting point is 00:10:25 the white button down and the belt. I was like, she hired a new stylist. That outfit was so chic. Sometimes she has a banger that day. But sometimes on her own accord doesn't mean she's hired a stylist. It's not get crazy. Rina, the bangs are growing and they look bulbous. They are getting bigger.
Starting point is 00:10:44 No, are they a clip on? They are getting a lot larger. I'm sorry. And it wasn't humid. Are they starting farther backs? There's more hair? You think she got hair? Transplant? No, I'm like, they look like a clip-on bang.
Starting point is 00:10:59 They do. Would it be that crazy that she wore a club-on bang, though? The dress that she wore out this weekend. Yes, it was 65 degrees that night. She looked like she was going to Martha's Vineyard in August. I like her in a prairie dress. That's so her. Yeah, in August. It was 60 degrees out. It was ridiculous. So I don't think that a clip on bang, she was like, make them bigger. So I was watching a hairstylist speak on it on TikTok and pulled up some old photos of her. I mean, older. Again, you want to, your look evolves and your taste change, but she used to just have a lighter bang. I don't, and it looked gorgeous. Like, again, she can do whatever she wants. It's just like, I don't, they don't look natural anymore. And it is such a choice. Is she getting
Starting point is 00:11:44 married with that bang? Is that her wedding hair? Is that her wedding bang? Sure, she'll do something terrible to blow my mind in her wedding. Rina, be honest. She wore a red lip in her wedding. I would love a red lip at her wedding. I need her to stop with the red lip. Okay. Is she doing those bags for her wedding? Probably. What if she does the bags and the rest is up?
Starting point is 00:12:03 You just have like a bowl cut? I can't. Okay. But so it's funny to think Taylor Swift could be calling people or texting people, hey, come to my wedding. And I love this. Again, I would have loved to see her eight different invitations, but like also invitations feel beneath her. Like, what's she going to do?
Starting point is 00:12:21 I mean, it's just like, I don't know. Where's Lauren Sanchez to consult from her from the worst wedding. invitation we've ever seen the clip art butterfly. If I'm Taylor Swift, I'm not actually not putting anything in writing. Yeah. Like, it's like when, you all understand this reference, but it's like when Teresa Judice was getting married and Ramona Singer, Instagram storied the wedding invitation. Like, someone will be dumb enough to do that and Taylor will have to move the plans.
Starting point is 00:12:44 Yeah, I guess, yeah, you're right. Because my initial instinct was like, what's wrong with that? The location. The location, the time, and all the time. Somebody's assistant or their makeup artist or like somebody just working inside of somebody's house will find that. Oh, yeah. So if I'm Taylor, right, it's like all the information she doesn't want to get out. A lot of people have access to it. I thought about that. I mean, I'm not famous, but I had a few people reach out and like, I want to do your invitations.
Starting point is 00:13:13 And I would have, again, we did our, like, I was just never going to like spend a lot of time and hire somebody to do my invitations. It wasn't about this. But there was a part of me that was like, like a fan, like you know all my, you know every detail of my wedding now. All, all. All, all. the activities and events, the times where you'll be. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, I don't, it's the same principles like, I don't post when I'm out to dinner while I'm still out at that place. I'm not an A or B-list celebrity, but I don't
Starting point is 00:13:36 think a lot of people are going to show up where I'm at, but enough that I wouldn't post it. Yeah. So, it's the same thing. So I think if I'm her, I'm not putting anything in writing. Calling. Hey, Blake. Yeah, I'm dying to know who's going to go to this. I really can't wait. The royal wedding. Okay,
Starting point is 00:13:52 so I want to give you the floor. Drake dropped. Not one, not two, But three new albums. Yes. So Drake dropped three albums, broke every record on Spotify. It's the Iceman trilogy. So there is an album called Iceman. And then there is Made of Honor.
Starting point is 00:14:08 And then there is Habibti. And, okay, so I just talked to Shashank, our resident Drake expert, my current husband. And what a lot of people are saying, and this isn't like a conspiracy, but a lot of people are saying he reportedly dropped three to fulfill his UMG contract. So now he's like out of that contract with his late. So that makes total sense. So he's under contract with them to do three albums. To do three more albums. And so now he's not.
Starting point is 00:14:33 So he just dropped them all at once. Crazy. When I heard he dropped three albums, I was like, that's a flex, of course. But how could they all be good? And I am a Drake fan. We all know that. And I've seen him perform. And I think he is an incredible performer.
Starting point is 00:14:45 And I love Drake. But I haven't really digested all them fully. I do like Ice Man. I think it is a great rap album. I love Make Them Cry. I love Run to Atlanta. I really do like it. I love Made a Great.
Starting point is 00:14:56 of honor. That's the club bangers. Opens with Ho Faze. That's my current favorite. And Habibti, I just didn't need. It's like bedroom music, slower R&B. We just had an album from him called Sexy Songs for You. So that's why I said we didn't really need it. I feel, listen, I might change my mind, but I feel a little bored by it. I feel like it gets my nerves. And it makes me realize that he did this for a reason and just kind of put this out. It feels, you guys, people might love it. It feels a little phoned in. And I don't know if you remember, this was like summer 2020 when honestly
Starting point is 00:15:28 Nevermind came out we were about to go to Greece and that was like the album that came out and there was that like viral video that Drake did end up reposting and it was this guy impersonating Drake and he's just like Drake's never really saying anything he's like
Starting point is 00:15:42 I know that you know that you don't know that you want to know but I know you know that you don't want it and then Drake that's the best harmonizing I've ever heard you do. Drake reposted and said I do do be saying stuff. And like that's what I feel like
Starting point is 00:15:58 Abifty is, is like, I know that you know. And it's over and over and over and it gets my nerves. Okay, so I had to text Shashonka this morning and ask him which songs to prioritize because it's too many. I just said like, what's the top three? He gave us five. And I just, I like a more poppy
Starting point is 00:16:15 kind of beat. My favorite Drake albums are not the most recent ones. But, I mean, lifelong fan and I don't need to power rank my albums right now. But wait, how many songs did you say it was? 43? Did I make that up? Oh, I think, I didn't tell you that. I think there are 43 songs. I mean, I didn't know anybody that had ever made a longer album than Tartre Poets Department, which is 31 tracks. Yeah, I mean, three albums, it just does feel like
Starting point is 00:16:39 there was obviously this reasoning behind it or you was just, I mean, because two is not as much of a flex. Three, who's ever done that? Here's three albums. Hey, have fun this summer. Here's three albums. I mean, we talk about when people start putting out too many comedy specials and we're like, who has it in them? It's because you're just throwing out fucking nonsense. That's why I feel like Habib Dio. Yeah. Okay, so just a few things, though, because I find the stats around it really fascinating. So he is Spotify's most streamed artists of all time, by the way.
Starting point is 00:17:04 Wow. Okay. Following the release of the triple album drop, he is the most streamed artist in a single day, over 250 million streams across all credits of one day. Most streamed album debut ever, 140.2 million streams in its first 24 hours. And most stream song in a single day, which was the opening track, Make Them Cry, which I do love that. So anyway, he continues to just dunk on every. everybody. Okay. And, you know, that's your, that's your Drake report. That's on that. Okay. Well,
Starting point is 00:17:28 speaking of Spotify, Spotify got a new logo. Okay. So I wondered if it was about Drake because it was that day. And I was like, but it wasn't. Okay. So the new logo, I was curious. I didn't think I was going to include this, but I was curious if you had any feelings about it. So the new logo, it used to be this like green shape and now it's a green disco ball. I thought my app was reinstalling. It looked dark. Like, it looked like when you're app is going dark, reinstalling, or updating. Or you know, like, when, like, Amazon or Google, like, for the day, we'll just have, like, a funzies little thing.
Starting point is 00:18:03 That's what I also thought. This is it? A disco ball. Disco. It's too muted. It doesn't pop. I thought it was updating. Is there any information about that?
Starting point is 00:18:13 Give us the Walmart logo rebrand. Just change the color. It doesn't change at all. You know, they should just bring the lines together ever so slightly of that green ball. Yeah, I'm not a fan. It just doesn't pop to me. I don't... I don't...
Starting point is 00:18:25 Zoom in to know what that is, too. It just... It's... Well, it's growing on me a little bit. I mean, I love a disco ball. We love a disco ball. It's just... It's not giving...
Starting point is 00:18:37 Okay, Anna, just wait in. It's temporary for what, though? For Drake? Oh, they're 20th anniversary. Okay, you heard it here first. We just found this out. 20th... Okay, I actually, listen,
Starting point is 00:18:47 if it's like a party theme... Did you get your little gift about 20 years? Oh, you're not on Spotify. I'm on Spotify. Spotify, been on Spotify. For what a year? Premium for like five years.
Starting point is 00:18:59 So I was like, when did I get on it? I thought I was pretty early to it. Okay. I mean, I was on Rhapsody for a while. We all know. And I wish you wouldn't bring it up. It reflects on me. It was a lot to migrate my library over there.
Starting point is 00:19:13 2011, I got on it. Wow. Holy shit. Yeah. That's crazy. I mean, but 20, I can't believe it was around an 06. I got on Spotify in like 2020. Don't compare us.
Starting point is 00:19:27 Don't compare us. How is there a nine year gap? That is crazy. Yeah, so they gave you your little thing. Obviously, my most played artist was Beyonce, but the first song you ever played, it was just kind of random. It was a Florence and the Machine song for me,
Starting point is 00:19:39 only if by the night in 2011. Happy 20 years to them. I was probably like, I don't know, Machine Gun Kelly is one of my tops right now. Who's to even say what I was doing five years ago? Who knows who she was? All right. Well, why don't you regal us with the last part of the music report that you insisted on putting in five minutes ago?
Starting point is 00:20:01 Aqua, the band that gave us Barbie Girl, has announced their breakup nearly 30 years after releasing the song. Truly, I think this is them announcing they have been a band all this time. 100%. I had that CD. Did you have it? No, I am fine with Barbie Girls a cultural moment, but I didn't love the song. Like, I just liked it to like, you know, Windows Down going to. the beach or something like that.
Starting point is 00:20:24 But I was never... Candyman? I'm not a big Aqua fan. And when you said to me earlier, Aqua broke up. I was like, who was Aqua? What couple name is that? It's his band that nobody did was together. In same time.
Starting point is 00:20:40 Hi, Barbie. I just, I love it. I respect Barbie girl. And then it had a resurgence with the Barbie movie a couple years back. What have they been doing for 30 years? I didn't know that they'd done anything. Have they toured? Why don't you?
Starting point is 00:20:52 You're the ex. They're a statement after many incredible years. Doing what? We decided to close this chapter of the Aquabic. Chapter. I didn't know you had done anything. That is so crazy. Hold on.
Starting point is 00:21:10 Okay, they said they've traveled the world countless times. Oh, maybe they're more popular in other countries. Oh, they're Danish Norwegian. That makes sense. Okay. You know what? So they're not even North American. Like, maybe that's why.
Starting point is 00:21:21 They've been doing their thing. across the pond. According to people, they burst onto the scene in 1997 and then for me burst off the scene in 1998. Right. Okay. Well, maybe they've been doing their thing in Norway. RIP to one of the greats of 1997. Okay.

Starting point is 00:22:47 I'm going to tell you about my favorite blanket. We both have them. I have one in my living room and in my bedroom. It's Lola Blankets. They are so. So soft, so high quality. I love these as a gift for somebody. So many colors.
Starting point is 00:22:58 So many sizes. Like wherever you want to throw this, if you want to have like a cozy living room situation or like just like something to throw over your bed, I just, I love these blankets so hard. Oh, it's such a status symbol. It's not, they're affordable. But I'm just saying you know, when you know you know, you know that's a Lola, why would you have anything else? So I stayed at a friend last week for one night, one of our very close friends.

Starting point is 00:23:28 So I don't have the weighted. I just have the regular and I have a toasted almond color. You can get them in like large medium baby sizes. They've exiled. They have so many prints. I truly did not. There's patterns, colors, different prints.
Starting point is 00:23:40 They have pillows on here as well. It's just so soft. And you know if you're gifting to somebody, it'll be something of like really high quality.

So I'll give you guys the boilerplate. Bethany Frankel last week wore this dress and these shoes. She had somebody from her team film her in this outfit.
Starting point is 00:26:23 We saw her in the outfit. You and I saw her in the outfit. I don't want to step by you. Okay. So she was at the Sports Illustrated brunch on Saturday, which Ashley and I had boots on the ground. We were there as well. And she had a member of her team film her in this outfit.
Starting point is 00:26:34 It actually was a very cute polka-dite outfit and shoes. She tags the shoes and drives people to buy this thing, these shoes. So this girl comes out later on. The Instagram handles Boho Chicken. Her name's Lexi. She's actually the daughter of Dina Manzo, who was a real housewife of New Jersey. She just called Bethany Frankel a weirdo.
Starting point is 00:26:50 I actually thought that she kept this really light. She has a company called New N-O-U, and she says, I sent Bethany these shoes, and she did this reel and tagged another brand, knowing that this was my brand, monetized that with an affiliate link, and made money off of this, even though I sent her these shoes. Like a dupe. A dupe. Yes.
Starting point is 00:27:10 And Bethany Franco responded. So you want to talk about this just before her response? Well, there's a few details. So Bethany says the shoes were sold out. I'm not defending Bethany Frankel. I'm not a fan. She says the shoes were sold out. And she did mention the name of the shoes in the video.
Starting point is 00:27:28 Did you see it? See, this is the thing. I think without some of these details, it's worst case scenario. You heard her mention the name of the shoes. Yeah, yeah. I watched the video where she pulls the shoe off. She looks at the inside and she says these are new. She kind of says it like just flippantly.
Starting point is 00:27:42 But she does acknowledge that the brand. And I don't know if she wrote this explicitly, but she did say they were sold out and everybody always wants to know what she's wearing. So they found a dupe and tagged it. So it wasn't this intentional, ignore the real brand, tag a dupe. I just want to make that clear because I just feel like if she did it intentionally, she's like a monster. And again, I'm not a fan. And I think she is kind of an asshole. And I don't agree with her.
Starting point is 00:28:09 I think she's very abrasive. I didn't like what she said about the Super Bowl. I'm just, I'm not a fan overall. But there are these certain details where it's not actually worst case scenario. So people are seeing both sides of it. So I just want to say that. But I wouldn't do this, by the way. I think it is a weird move.
Starting point is 00:28:25 And I think it's an asshole move. And if I'm wearing something that is sold out, I still tag it. And you can find your own dupe. You can go on dupe.com or at least you have the link in case it comes back in stock. But maybe I would dupe it. But if it was gifted to me, my gosh, if like a small business gifted me these shoes, there's no way I would tag another brand and then make money off of it if it was actually an affiliate link, which I...
Starting point is 00:28:51 The whole thing is gross to me. I mean, she, Bethany Frankel put out a TikTok. She did not miss words. She was like, this is a business lesson to you. I don't owe you anything. You sent me this. I did not sign a contract. And so I will say, like, people send Ashley and I stuff all the time. I typically say don't send me anything because I don't want to feel like I've accepted products and I'm not going to promote you. I don't want to do that. And I don't want to be on the hook to promote somebody. But if I accept something and then put something else on my story and monetize that, that is like so unfair, immoral, this is a small business that this girl is running. It's so unfair. And the way that she came at her, it was so abrasive. Like, let this be a business lesson to you.
Starting point is 00:29:32 What lesson that you're an asshole? Business lesson to you, Bethany, because this is the most press this brand is ever going to have. I love that that girl addressed it because she didn't have to. You know, it's so funny that Bethany's whole thing is, you shouldn't have come at me. You shouldn't have addressed this because I would have promoted your brand, yada, yada. Whether this girl knew what she was doing or not, this has been the best thing that could have happened to this brand. So business lesson from her end. And I just, I can't stand the whole, let this be less than you holier than now tone in the first place. But I do just want to say that, like, I never would have done this in a million years.
Starting point is 00:30:06 And it is fucking weirdo behavior. But it's not as bad as some people have made it out to seem. like, you know what, there are, I just want to say that. I like what Lexi said in the video. I think this is a good business lesson to Bethany Franklin. Yeah. It's such an asshole. All she said was she's a weirdo. This girl could have gone way harder.
Starting point is 00:30:22 But I like that. And some people in the comments were like, you didn't need to name calls. No, you can call people. Weird. She didn't call her a cunt. Or a monster. If we sent somebody a vibrator from Vibes Only and they tagged another brand and made
Starting point is 00:30:38 money through an affiliate link. You're so right. You're my product to do that. I would feel insane. You're so right. And I would name them and say a lot of stuff. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:48 I love that you approach it from that angle. Yes. If someone did that, okay, but hear me out. So we send someone a vibrator. Everyone wants to know about it. Also, it's not that deep, Bethany. And like, no one's knocking down your door because they can't find your shoe link. Like the way that she acts is like, I have to post my links or my followers will
Starting point is 00:31:04 come for me. It's so, that's okay. Bethany's something sold out. You don't need to make money. Yes. Bethany Frankel also cannot tell. you enough that she's a billionaire. So she needed the affiliate money from the shoe link. Tell me you're not a billionaire. It worked out for them. But yes, if someone was like, guys,
Starting point is 00:31:20 people are asking me about this specific type of vibe you're left and right. There is a world in which you could be like, this is from vibes only. Here is their catalog. Shop at your will. If you need this specific type of suction, it's sold out. But here is a dupe on Amazon. I guess. I would not like it. But it's like if you do feel like you, you, have that responsibility to your followers. They're dying to have this thing. But she just went about it the wrong way. And it kind of got out of control, but in the best way for the brand. Yeah, I'm happy for the brand. Because I mean, this is an example of somebody punching down for no reason at all. Bethany Frankel also has a young daughter. What if somebody treated her like that?
Starting point is 00:31:58 And I, you know, I wish new, you guys go to new. I know you, shop their shoes. I mean, accepting gifts can be tricky. Like, I will not accept a gift unless I really know I'm going to want to post about it. And again, to Bethany's credit, you know, what is it? A broken clock is right twice a day. I do agree with her every once in a while on some things. Totally. I really try not to have her underpamial go because I just feel anxious when she starts speaking. But if someone wants to send you something, my whole thing though is once you say yes, please send it, you do kind of have that obligation. I mean, this stuff might have shown up at her place and stuff does show up at my place all the time. But that's different. Because she showed the DMs where she, she offered
Starting point is 00:32:37 them to Bethany and Bethany said yes, email this person or whatever. So she did accept them. But it's still to her point. It does. I'm not promising you anything. I mean, to have Bethany Frankel with her millions of followers tag your brand. That's a really like expensive promo.
Starting point is 00:32:52 You know, so when we've sent vibrators, people haven't posted. I think in one person I really thought was going to, that was such a fan of the brand. And I mean, my mistake, we sent her like three vibrators. And she never posted them. And it's just like, well, you know, sex toys are different. Not everybody wants to do that, but I actually thought that she would and she didn't, and that's okay. But it's like, I'm not blackballing her. But you just can't tag another brand and make money from it because of the gift that I sent you.
Starting point is 00:33:18 So anyways, I mean, Bethany Frankel's going to Bethany, I guess, and I'm sure she'll do something else terrible next week to somebody else. So did you know about that girl and her, like, I remember Dina? I've been known Lexi since she was a little kid. Okay, so she was like, yeah. So Dina Manzo is the original pass member. And so Lexi was on the show and she was just so cute and her little glass. and she's just grown up to be this like, she looks beautiful. I loved the tone.
Starting point is 00:33:42 Bethany Frankel's so weirdo. Yeah, say it with your whole chest. She's probably known Bethany Frankles and she was a little kid. Yeah. Also, that's kind of sad. That's what's so sad. No, I'm telling you, she posted the DMs and she was so excited to send them to her. That too.
Starting point is 00:33:57 Like, these shoes didn't come from, I don't know, DSW. Like, they came from a small women-owned business. Yeah, they're expensive, but that doesn't matter. I don't know. Anyway, team new. Okay, guys. So liberal guys on the internet are crushing watermelons between their thighs for women's heart health. And it is so horny.
Starting point is 00:34:18 Ashley, you sent me this to me last night. This clip by Bradley Thor. He started this. If you don't know Bradley Thor, double up on your panties and get into his content. I just want to say... Put on a panty liner and get into his content. I want to save the record he follows me. And you saw that check guy on the street.
Starting point is 00:34:39 So there's these very... very hot, like, progressive guys that are, like, very smart, and they're just, like, a camp of them. And they're the ones all doing. Professor Chesco got involved, but he took a different. So basically men, so Bradley Thor started this, and he said he wants to raise awareness for women's heart health. And if you make donations, and we'll give you the charity, if you make donations, once they get to a certain amount of money, they will crush these watermelons with their thighs. It is so sexual to watch. So my understanding is that the start on Mother's Day, it's not Women's Heart Health Awareness Month.
Starting point is 00:35:12 I think that's February. But they are doing a fundraiser for the American Heart Association because women are less likely to receive life-saving CPR and are less likely to survive a cardiac event. So he did this on Mother's Day. And he just like, it seemed like he didn't anticipate this. And then it's turned into like, I'm going to set up a real fundraiser and I'm going to challenge all these other guys to do it. It's giving ice bucket challenge, you know, challenging people. and he's got this huge following and he tagged that good trouble guy, Sam, who I love, or he was the next one I saw Do It, and then Chuck, the, Shea, Chuck, Shea dot Chuck, Shes.
Starting point is 00:35:52 Shay, whatever. You guys know. If you know, you know. And they've all done it. And like, it's like they're giving birth. It looks crazy. And I can't believe they can crush it. Rina. Okay, I have a question for you. Do you think that they're kind of. into the watermelon. I just want to believe in them. You want to believe in Stanlaws. I want to believe in their honesty.
Starting point is 00:36:13 And these are supposed to be our allies as women and they're not grifters. And I want to believe that they're not. I mean, they are really struggling. Bradley Thor looked like he has the lower body strength to crush that with. Chaz? Chaz, I didn't think he was going to do it. I didn't think he was going to do it. And when he did it, he like came basically.
Starting point is 00:36:32 He couldn't believe it. He starts digging into the watermelon. Like, I was like, he's not going to be able to do it. and then it pops. I can't barely cut into a watermelon. I'm saying I think some of them gave themselves a little bit of a head start. This would have killed Chaz.
Starting point is 00:36:46 Wait, you saw him in the street. Is he like, he's pretty big? He looks small. Bradley Thor's size. Bradley Thor like eats bark for breakfast. And then Good Trouble, good trouble T.T. He looks, he is thick.
Starting point is 00:36:57 Like, he's always posted. He's got that like real, he's real kicked up. Yeah. Listen, I love this move. All you do is give men a stupid physical challenge that makes no sense at all and they will do it. Like, if you were like, all we have to do to cure cancer is to crush beer cans on your head.
Starting point is 00:37:13 Like, every, we would cure cancer in an hour. Like, all you have to do is just give men a dumb physical challenge to cure a disease. I love this. And I don't feel like it's centering men for women's issue. I mean, yes, they're getting attention, but better them than us. Yeah, fucking do this to highlight the, like, the plight of women. And to make me horning. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:34 Right. At the same time. So it's as it, the watermelon crush for women's heart health for the American Art Association, as we record, is up to 222,000. Professor Chesco says he's raised the, he's at the top of the leaderboard. Is he crushing? He took a different approach. He like kind of acted like he was dumping the watermelon, like crushing the watermelon. Like he spoke to it.
Starting point is 00:37:55 He was like, I can't crush that between my thighs. But I just, I love this. And, you know, liberal guys, these are like the hottest ones out there doing this very sexual thing and we're here for it. I can't wait to go homewash more. I'm a watermelon sexual. All right, we have a waterfall of headlines, but before we get into them, you finished yesterday, you wanted to tell me something about it.
Starting point is 00:38:20 Yeah, so I finished yesterday or the book that we've been talking, everyone's talking about it by Caro Claire Burke. And so spoilers ahead. And we've talked about it. We don't need to summarize it if you know, you know. But I did finish it. And you told me the ending was incredible. and the twist and I just, I never would have anticipated it.
Starting point is 00:38:40 And I am curious if people did have an idea, there were with certain hints throughout or if you had any idea. I was like, I will be so disappointed with so many outcomes. If she actually time traveled, if she's totally. If she's dreaming, I'll be so disappointed. Oh my God. Oh my God, I would hate it. Even like Truman Show, I was like, this isn't going to make any sense.
Starting point is 00:39:00 Like I actually was like, I can't anticipate what this could possibly be because all these outcomes are so, stupid to me. And the one they landed on was just brilliant. So let me tell you what I thought. And I'm curious that this is what everybody thought and what we were supposed to think. So as her daughter, Clementine pulls up in the car and then the last sentence says it's judgment day. I was like, oh, she's been in purgatory to see if she was going to go to heaven or hell. And I loved that, by the way. I loved what I thought it was. I was like, oh my gosh, this is what's happened. She died because she took the pills and this is the afterlife and that in-between stage to see if you go to heaven or hell.
Starting point is 00:39:39 I could have accepted that. Because it said it's Judgment Day. Yeah. Let me know if you guys thought that and I really liked that and then it took a totally different turn and that is not what it was. And they had created, she had created this world, this pioneer day world that she lived in, this hell all on her own. Okay, I have a question for you. Do you think that she is setting up a second book by saying, that the daughter wrote a book about her life and that like the next book could be like
Starting point is 00:40:07 what that daughter's experience is like getting back out into the world. Yes. I do now. Now I want it. And I just want to say because we were talking about books, strangers is a book that we love and I had the opportunity to meet Bell Burden randomly. The author this weekend, she was at Natalie Jackson, which is a bookstore I love in Soho. And she just couldn't have been nicer.
Starting point is 00:40:27 She was taking photos with everybody and doing videos. And she was just sitting sort of like inconspicuously at a corner, just signing books. She just was so sweet. And we are trying to get her on the show. But couldn't have been nicer. So I love. Couldn't even, I couldn't suggest supporting her even more. Insane, you saw her.
Starting point is 00:40:42 Like, we were literally trying to get her on the podcast. And you were like, here she is. I was like, Raina really hit the streets. I am reading Fam Sick by Lena Dunham. I just did a little book hall when I was in Delaware. My favorite books were Brows About books. So shout out to them. And I'm loving it so far.
Starting point is 00:40:55 And I also got the book by Isabel Klee, who her Instagram is Simon Sits. And she fosters all these dogs. And you guys might know her. and the book is dogs, boys, and other things I've cried about. And it's like top of the New York Times bestseller list, and I can't wait to read. And I've always followed her journey of these dogs that she brings in rehabilitates, quite honestly. And her dog, Simon, I love him too. And he was like a special needs dog.
Starting point is 00:41:15 I've just followed her forever. So we want to have her on two maybe at some point. But and I am watching Running Point season two. I love this show so much. You asked me if I'm watching anything. Yes, I'm watching Running Point. And we loved the first season. It's with Kate Hudson.
Starting point is 00:41:29 And it is sort of a parody of the Lakers in L.A. and she's the owner of the Lakers. And what are they called the Waves? The Waves. And it is right up to the point of almost being corny and they don't cross that line. Yeah. And it's edgy and sexual. And Jay Ellis is one of my hall passes forever.
Starting point is 00:41:45 He's just so sexy. And he's the former coach this season of The Waves. I need more Chet Hanks. Like he's on the show. I love the character. I love the character. It's less of him this season. So, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:42:00 I just, were you dying over like the least? Serena stuff. Are you there? Because they're filming the reality show with Luce Arina. I mean, it's, you know, I just don't like stuff that's like so corny and they just, they're a little more restrained than that. And so I really enjoy it. So we are loving that. Okay, well, let's just
Starting point is 00:42:15 talk about our remaining partners and then we will get into headlines. I am telling you guys about Hungry Root. Okay, so we are super busy. I've been away for weeks. Raina is on tour. She's going to be on tour for the rest of the year apparently. And so it's just really helpful to have something that takes a lot of the guest work out of cooking and meal

Okay, talking you guys about skims, the only bras that I wear, and I love them so much. So I wear the everyday cotton tischer bra every single day.
Starting point is 00:44:08 I have it in like four different colors. I love the fit. I wear with underwire. I also sleep with it. It just feels really nice. The quality is fantastic. It stands the test of time. And my sister-in-law, when she first had my nephew, was asking me about good bras to, like, replace her collection.
Starting point is 00:44:24 Anybody that asks me, what kind of new bras should I get, I always recommend the cotton t-shirt bra. It just goes under anything really smooth. smoothly, you won't really feel it when you're wearing it. And they also have the everyday cotton ultimate bra. So cotton when it's hot out, that's the best thing you have in your body. Hell yeah. I love their 100% cotton. And it's smooth and there's no lines and it's the only thing I wear every day.
Starting point is 00:44:45 Also wear their underwear. I love their pajamas. Skims is constantly coming out with new stuff. I think it's really great to gift for somebody. I just sent somebody a friend of mine who had lost some weight. She needed new bras. I was like, you got to get the Skims bras. So I can't recommend it enough.
Starting point is 00:44:59 I mean, boobs are a huge part of it. of my life. They have been my whole life. A large part of a lot of people's lives. I have them tattooed onto my arm, love boobs, and I want to put them in the best thing possible, which is Skims Bras. Shop Everyday Cotton.

Okay, so you may. mentioned Lena Denham's book that you're reading. So she does not mince words about Adam Driver. In the book, I mean, she says that he threw furniture, that he basically made being on set with him not that pleasant, wouldn't speak to her.
Starting point is 00:45:42 In the last three years that they were on set together, he did not speak to her. And basically he was, I cannot imagine it. They said that about dirty dancing and Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Gray really did not get along. But it was a movie. Like seasons of a TV show, you just have to keep coming back and be, I don't know. just ignored by your cast, I don't know. Your love interest. Right, exactly.
Starting point is 00:46:05 I mean, the intimacy that they shared on screen, there's so many nude scenes. And it's just crazy to think that you could share something so deep and vulnerable to a person for so many years and the show was on for six or seven years and have no relationship with that person. And so he was interviewed and people were saying, like, what is your comment? He just said, like, when I write my own book, I'll comment on it. He basically said no comment.
Starting point is 00:46:26 That was it. Nothing. And I just was sort of curious, like, if you think, you would be capable of something like that. Not saying anything? Not saying anything. I don't know. Is it all true?
Starting point is 00:46:37 Like, they're not calling her a liar. I'm assuming it's true. This is her memoir. She's not going to say anything that he could, like, call her on. So, yeah, I don't know. Do you think he has a book planned? Like, if I was going to tell my side of the story, I would do the whole no comment thing until I told my full side of the story.
Starting point is 00:46:54 Like, if someone wrote a scathing memoir about me, I would share my truth in a big way. Like Sierra's glamour article. Like, Sierra didn't speak for weeks. And then she did this really wonderful. Well thought out. Yeah, cover article. So I don't know.
Starting point is 00:47:13 I wonder what he's got planned or if he's just like, I don't care and it's not going to affect my career. And I'm not going to worry about this. I don't know. I also haven't read the book. I don't need to get down in the mud about something that happened 10 years ago. Right, right. I mean, he is really the only person that she makes look kind of. bad, I will say.
Starting point is 00:47:29 She takes no shots at Gemma Kirk and Allison Williams and Zasha Mameh, who the other girls on the show. I don't know. I guess if I was him, I would want to say, like, it's unfortunate that that was the lens through which she saw me. But to your point, it might just be true. He might just be like, yeah, we had a nightmare working situation. Neither one of us was nice.
Starting point is 00:47:49 Yeah. I mean, I think there's also so many different ways people get handle things and come out looking good, you know, like he could say, yeah, we didn't get along. hot take. We didn't get along and I wish we were the best. Yeah. I'd probably go that route. The only thing I will say she said about him is that he was trying to like come over to her place one night and said to me and that she was going to sleep with him and she basically like shut it down and then he, that he was in a serious relationship and then proposed to that girl and married that girl.
Starting point is 00:48:17 I guess if that was my current spouse that you were speaking of in your book, I would have wanted to be like that is absolutely not what happened. but maybe it is what happened. Okay, so I have a question for you. So I'm really just at the beginning of this book. And the relationship that Lena Dunham had in real life with the older guy who they would do like, you know, degrading type stuff. That is of Adam Driver's based on. But in the real life, he had this cleft lip. And so I was picturing Ray from girls who had a lip thing.
Starting point is 00:48:50 That's interesting. The whole thing, they call him lip, he's got a cleft lip. I mean, there's a spectrum of cleft lips and how much. much they've been corrected since childhood. But doesn't the actor that played Ray had like a lip thing? He did. But the guy who plays Ray, Alex Karpopski, he predates this because he was in tiny furniture with her.
Starting point is 00:49:11 He was. No, I knew they had a relationship too. I think I did know that. But it's just funny. It's like this lip thing and there's already an actor. So I was like, I got all twisted up in my head. But anyway, everybody is telling me when I finish FAMSIC to rewatch girls, which did you? I am in, you're always watching girls.
Starting point is 00:49:24 I'm all. I'm at season three. I'm rewatching. Because it's so wonderful to me to watch you through the lens of this. I know. And also know that all those girls got along and are still friendly, at least. It's nice for me to know. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:34 I remember one of my favorite things was listening to the Laguna Beach podcast and then rewatching it. It was so much fun to do that. Okay. So the next headline, Pete Davidson and Elsie Hewitt split and they are co-parenting. As I like to call her, Whispy. Oh, I thought you were going to say, as I like to call it, slinging shit at each other on the internet. Oh, I thought you were going to make fun. of me because I was trying to think of her name.
Starting point is 00:49:57 We could not come up with her name the other night. And I was like, it's something like in the car. Whispy. It's just been called her Whispy. It's the same energy as Elsie. Whispy. So, I don't hate Whispy. They were never obviously married.
Starting point is 00:50:11 They were together for a few months. She got pregnant. They had the baby. I think the baby is, what, eight, eight months old? Not a year yet. People have speculated for a while that they're not actually together. They have both confirmed it. And they're just sort of, he said, she said, ing on the internet.
Starting point is 00:50:25 So who's to say? what's going on, but she's posted some things and taking them down. She posted asking, does anybody know a nanny? Which, you don't see big celebs being like, any nanny wrecks? Yeah. But they've confirmed they're not together. Yeah, they're not together. Okay. Speaking of babies, Alex Cooper is pregnant,
Starting point is 00:50:42 expecting her first baby with her husband, Matt Kaplan. I'm wondering if every person in the world had the exact same thought, which is this Alex Earle argument is over. This feud with Alex Earl is over. I was like, this is so crazy. She got pregnant to end this feud. I mean, that's the way to end anything and turn the public opinion is to have a baby. But that felt like it was kind of on the way out.
Starting point is 00:51:03 And then Alex Earle, she said she was going to respond. She never did, really. I mean, whatever. I forgot about it. But it's funny because she posted that video being like, okay, Alex Earle, say it with your whole chest. You have a problem being she knew she was pregnant. Right. If Alex Earl attacked her publicly, I bet you Alex Earl knew that she was pregnant and knew.
Starting point is 00:51:21 I feel like people knew. But then do you feel like that video was just pregnancy hormones? Maybe. I think she was just like, I dare you. I dare you to come at me. Whatever, though. You don't get a pass as a mom all the time? America gives people a pass.
Starting point is 00:51:37 Just because you're pregnant? Or I was like, did she just get pregnant to sidestep this? Alex Dural will not address this. She was actually in an interview. I forgot the other day on the viewer. Some like, Good Morning Show. Good Morning America. And they asked her about it.
Starting point is 00:51:49 And she was like, let's just keep it positive. This is overblown, she said. Well, maybe it'll come up on her reality show. Yeah. So Alex Cooper's pregnant. People were saying that her and Matt Capitol were having problems and sleeping in separate bedrooms and posting out the stuff of them. They look happy. Congratulations to her. So there was this clip of them in the red carpet and they look, she looks just. Morose. I mean, annoyed, pissed. But like, I could never be famous for that reason alone. I can't hide what's going on. She might have just had an interaction with someone else. Like she could have still been fuming. It might not have had anything to do with her husband. I would say this about anybody, whether I like them or not. is like you just can't assume. I mean, you hope a famous person can hide their facial expressions and just, you know, kind of turn it on. But she looks very annoyed as they're being posed together on this red carpet.
Starting point is 00:52:37 And you just don't know what just had happened or why she was looking like that. I think about that with everybody when they get like popped, popped, papped. Papped. Yeah. Or like at award shows. Like when people look a little annoyed or bored, I look annoyed and bored all the time. Thanks, Ashley. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:52:53 I say it with me. I'm just saying. Like there was one time you said like you look bored and I was like I could not be less bored. I just that's how my face rests sometimes when I am listening intently. And if somebody was constantly taking photos in me, I would look pissed off all the time. And now these lip readers. Oh, I'd be so fucked. I'm just always talking shit.
Starting point is 00:53:12 I'm not saying like problematic stuff, but I people would be like, she doesn't ever stop. We would have to start always annoyed talking shit. Yes, 100%. Okay. So next is Tom Brady made his. catwalk debut at the Gucci event in Times Square. But bigger than him, we'll get to him. But Gucci did this resort wear fashion show in Times Square.
Starting point is 00:53:32 Tom Brady. Cindy Crawford walked in it. Paris Hilton. With a brunette do. Yeah, I barely recognized her, but you guys know I stand Cindy. And I love nothing more than Tom Brady's retirement era. I love everything Tom Brady does. I can't believe this.
Starting point is 00:53:45 I mean, walked that catwalk looking like the Terminator. And I don't understand how that was resort wear, head-to-to-toe leather. Please explain. I'm not a fashion girlie. Resort. Head to toe leather. I feel like I could hear it squeaking. He looked literally like judgment day. I thought it was a typo. I thought it was a mistake when somebody said this was resort wear. I mean, truly head to toe winter wear. Peak winter wear. All black. Yes. But dope as hell to do this. And just like some of the memes, though, are really funny. I mean, one I saw that said, because he looks just kind of stiff. But yeah, go ahead and. criticized Tom Brady's runway walk, one of the greatest athletes of all time. I think he's not a model. He looks hot as hell. Someone said bust down stiffiana. He is stiff, though. And also, most models are stiff. I don't, how do you want a man to walk? I mean, do models look like they're having fun to you when they're walking? Sometimes they're strut. Tom Brady is a robot. I thought we all knew this. But how insane is it that he is doing his ex-wife's job now?
Starting point is 00:54:53 No one has ever been less over their ex. Now he's like, I'm going to model. That's so true. When we were talking about it last week, he got $25 million to sit on a stage at the roast and let everybody roast his ex-wife for fucking her jujitsu instructor. Like, he's not over it.
Starting point is 00:55:10 And his emo Instagram posts, remember he posted the selfie with the suicide hotline song set to it? We're like, is Tom okay? And like, when he was like curled up in a little blanket, he was like, what are you guys doing on Sundays? I mean, I am living for Tom. I'm telling you, I am so fascinated by this man.
Starting point is 00:55:26 All we knew about him, besides he kissed his kids on the mouth, is that he was this amazing quarterback. And now he's modeling, he's posting thirst traps. Like, it's so crazy. So this one I, also, also he was at the Kevin Hart Roast, and he was so funny. He opened it and he was great. Yes.
Starting point is 00:55:43 Sexy. I don't, he's not over his ex and he never will be, and I don't blame him. But he's been doing well. He's doing better than most men do. post breakup. Most men just decline. When did they break up like three years ago? She's had a whole ass baby with somebody else.
Starting point is 00:56:00 I just thought it was so funny. He's literally modeling now. The jawline and the cheeks look insane. He's a robot. He's like a Ken doll. And while we're here, you don't want to talk about this. John Travolta has a new look. And Raina, I can't get over this.
Starting point is 00:56:17 So he's wearing these berets all around Cannes. I'm kind of attracted to it. people have come around to it. When we first saw, you guys can watch on video, when we first saw John Travolta's new look, people were like, truly, like, laughing their asses off,
Starting point is 00:56:31 and now they're like, I kind of like it. I'm into it. He is that meme of when I pronounce croissant, quissant. Like, there's this meme that it's a cat. Everyone has sent it to me for seven years, nonstop, but never stops.
Starting point is 00:56:43 Like, he is the epitome of when you say something French. He's a French meme. He looks insane. He's 70 years old. He's never looked sexier. I saw this beret photo. I was like, am I sexually attracted to John Travolta for the first time ever? This is a big reveal for you.
Starting point is 00:56:58 I just, you wanted to talk about this. And I was like, I don't care about John Travolta wearing a bra. What am I going to say about it? And then I looked at it. I was like, it is low-key, kind of sexy. That is Jean Travolta. That is not. He is French meme, Jean-Tribalta.
Starting point is 00:57:15 Jean-Claude Travolta. He's big. Jean-Pierrevelda. It's big. And that's not his one beret. There's more, there's multiple brevity. He's all over can. Just beret in it up.
Starting point is 00:57:25 What do you think about a man in a bray? Raina, be dead ass. A man shows up to meet you in a beret. Don't. Are we in France? And he's tall? Does he has like a chin strap? What is his facial hair? He doesn't like he's dyed the facial hair. It is black. He's a weird dude.
Starting point is 00:57:41 He's Scientologist. Okay. Well, lastly, and what are men up to? I guess. So last night in New York City, it was the premiere of the city. Oh, yes, that's off the on our list. Which, Summerhouse Spinoff. Summer House Spinoff, which will focus people in New York City. Kyle Cook and Amanda Petula and Lindsay Hubbard star in it.
Starting point is 00:58:01 And I saw videos and photos from the red carpet. Amanda Patula is in this Zara dress, which I also bought a couple days ago. And Kyle and Amanda are photographed, like not just in group photos, but he walks up to her. He has his arm around her and they are photographed on the red carpet together. And I guess there was some discourse online. Like, how could you get into a photo with her? And I think my initial reaction just to seeing her was like, I was surprised she even went to this. I think West has been really out and about.
Starting point is 00:58:28 You know, we give men more passes in this world. West has been at weddings, Instagram storing, I mean, all over the place. And she hasn't. She posted one Instagram story and people attacked her and then she stopped. And I actually like, I think that she's allowed to return to real life. I think she's allowed to go to the premiere of a show she worked on and starred in. All these people bleed out for the world for entertainment. I know they're paid for it.
Starting point is 00:58:51 But the blowback was like, I can't believe Kyle was in photos with her. And his response was basically like, I encouraged her to come to this. This was my longtime wife, my longtime partner and coworker, by the way. And yeah, I'm going to be in a photo with her. Yeah. I mean, this isn't, this isn't defense of anyone, especially any woman. You can return to the world. People shouldn't, like, publicly stone you in the town square because you set out to a show that you're in to a premiere.
Starting point is 00:59:19 But I mean, I think, obviously, like, they had a tumultuous relationship. He heard her. She heard him. Whatever. But I just always like when I can see ex-spouses be cordial, be kind, be able to be in the same room. I mean, that's just how I feel. I would really hope if I was married to someone, we could be on good terms. I wouldn't want to think of my ex-spouse as my enemy.
Starting point is 00:59:42 I've obviously never been divorced. I haven't been in a relationship as long as them. And so, I mean, every situation is different. but like seeing anyone, no matter who it is, ex-spouses, unless, of course, there was like abuse involved, whatever, but be able to just be friendly with each other on a red carpet. I appreciate it. I don't, it's weird that people are criticizing that. I know. And he said, with all due respect, we're adults here.
Starting point is 01:00:04 We all showed up to a premier party. Yeah, they worked on something together. They're together a long time. I would hope that if I'd been with somebody for that long and nothing so egregious happened that we could take a photo together for something that we worked on together. And, you know, I think there's been a lot of discourse online. Like, West was Kyle's best friend. He wasn't. They were on a show together.
Starting point is 01:00:23 They're co-workers. They're like 13 years apart. I don't think that he probably loves it. That's who his wife was with after. But I still think it's nice that he can, like, show her some kindness. Yeah. And he sets, I'm never on, I'm not on anybody's side with Kyle Cook. I think he was terrible to her on television for many years.
Starting point is 01:00:40 But it's nice that he realizes he sets the tone and he gives people permission to be nice to her or not and he has chosen give her a break. Right. Like he could vilify her and pile on. Hell yeah. And people kill themselves over this shit. So it's just like, I like that he's like, I care about her mental health. I want her to be able to exist in the world. You know, we were with Kyle last week at this event. We didn't hang out too much with he was there. I mean, you weren't there. Sorry, I was there. And so he was like in our group. But I did talk to Carl for a while. And I just, he's really nice. And we were talking about you
Starting point is 01:01:14 and we want to have them on the podcast at some point. And I just really had a nice time talking to him. He's just like the sweetest guy. I'm really enjoying him and Lindsay Hubbard's arc where they just seem to be friendly again. And, you know, I think that it gives people hope that you can go through the most terrible romantic experience of your entire life, your fiancé leaving you on national television, nonetheless. And the life goes on and you can heal.
Starting point is 01:01:37 And, you know, that doesn't mean you'll be best friends forever. But, like, you can get to a better place of people. And I like that message of hope. And so working on having them on the show to tell you. about it. Yeah, and he didn't seem like a mess. I was no longer a mess. You heard it here first, you guys. So yes, in the city this week, so it premiered this past Tuesday. So we will be watching that and talking about it. You guys, thanks for listening to the snack.
