Okay. So we're kicking off with a beef report. A lot of people got beef. There's a lot of beef. We got the beef. And it's a lot to like unpack. Okay. So Brianna Chicken Fry, Zach Bryan, they're at it again.

She did not provoke this. Of course, a man provoked this. A woman would never. He's the A list of the A list celebrities. I mean, he's one of the biggest names in country. You just, you think that people like this would be above it. Not men. No, I would have never thought.

I just feel like in general, like country singers are going to like roll around in the dirt and get messy. And I don't really. keep up with her or him. But to me, it's very much she was doing fine. She's moved on and he's like, how can I ruin that for you? That's absolutely what it is. So, I mean, celebs are just like us. She really did seem to be fine.

She doesn't really talk about it. Barstle doesn't really talk about it. Like, it happened. It's been done. So basically what had happened was there's a new Tyler Childers song out. Also, if you guys don't know who these people are. Neither do we. They're people.

Zach Ryan's a country singer, Bionna Chinkrises ex-girlfriend, they had a big messy breakup and this third person, who's to say? He's just a singer. I know. I heard the name. And she works at Barstool

and basically he tried to pay her off to keep quiet with like $12 to $13 million about their relationship. And the emotional abuse that she said that she suffered with him, she rejected the money and she's allowed to say whichever she wants now.

So basically this Tyler Childers song came out. The lyrics are to put it plain, I just don't like you. I don't like a thing about the way you are, blah, blah, blah. So Zach Ryan posts an Instagram story with his song as the background. And he's burning a flag that says Saturdays are for the boys, which is a barstool flag. Okay. A barstle thing, obviously.

Which is psychotic. Right. He set something on fire from her work and put it on Instagram to millions of followers, which like that feels like a threat a little bit. That's crazy. Right. What in the clan meeting is this? Yes.

And it made me think, Raina, like, what if someone, what if your ex burned a vibes only cum towel? What song do you think you'd put it to? Oh my God. What song? Hold on. What could it be? Never your pussy gets good as that again. I don't know.

Something with those kind of. Or it would be like a totally different vibe and just like, I want you back or I will always love you. And it's just a cum tail burning. You know that song. Fuck you and your mom and your sister. That's probably that one. Or put it in your mouth. A real old school banger.

So he starts this shit with her. She just puts on Instagram story like, come get your boy. No, no. She said nurse, he's loose again or something like that. I love that. Me too. I'm going to use that.

She also said like, how do I file a restraining order? And Barstle responded and Dave pornois like he's a fucking psycho. Also, he has, I'm trying his new girlfriend looks identical. Exactly like her. I know. This is the T that I appreciate.

I saw the side by side of his new girl. You could not tell me that's not the same. same exact person. It's not like a passing resemblance. It's crazy to me. And then I think she thought he would like go away. She announced she was on special forces. She was talking about her manicure.

Zach Bryan responds by saying like, I know where you can go get a manicure. I mean, this is so messy. And she finally said to her like audience, I guess, like, please stop sending me this. I blocked him. I don't want to see him. Like, again, they're just normal people.

She just want to know what he's been up to. And if he wants to troll her on the internet, that's his business. Like a fucking loser. Zach Brian. And this is someone that is so famous and like this probably people have turned on him since this. But of course he still is a huge fan base. I'm not taking that away from him. But this could be his downfall. You don't need to act like this. Like this is the crazy thing. I mean, you see people just run their careers into the ground with this crazy behavior. And of course people have whatever they have going on and their trauma and their mental issues and whatnot. But it's just like this is, you don't have to do all this. Why don't you just be rich and famous? I just can't. How fucking old are you? Yes, that's what I say. Grow up.

Like, I don't put this stuff online. I never have. Yeah. It's crazy to me. So, I don't know. So a more mature beef between two women keeping it classy, of course. Kind of keeping it. Well, I don't know.

I mean, you tell me. You did more research for today. So Alex Earle and Alex Cooper. And we're fans of both of them. We don't have any feelings about any one of them. They seem like nice girls. But Alex Earl used to have. a podcast on Alex Cooper's network.

They have since sort of parted ways. People have speculated there's some beef there. And it seems that there was because Alex Earle's contract was not up yet, allegedly, and it was the most popular show on the Unwound Network. And so people have speculated there's beef between the two of them. They haven't said anything publicly. And this was last week, but there's been no updates, so I'm, like, stressed, you know. So anyways, Alex Earle puts out online.

There was, I guess there's some, like, um, astrology. app. And it says, like, you could start some shit today. And she says, low-key, is this my time that I've been waiting for? I have so much information. Okay. And people are like, can you tell us what happens? And she says, how much time do you have to her millions of followers? And it's like, sis, we got time. I got time. Just tell us what I have. Just start talking. Start talking. I will be sat. I don't, Ashley and I, we don't support beef between women. We don't support pitting women against women. But I support beef between anyone. I want, I don't, yeah, I want like gossip. And anybody's,

I want to hear about friends of a friend's co-workers drama. Like, I don't care. I don't care who it is. I don't either. I mean, I'm invested in this. These are podcasters. This is our world. And they were friends, obviously. They have the same name. They look exactly alike. I love those memes that are like, you can't tell me this is not the same person. And what happened here? You know, I do think Alex Earl can do whatever she wants. I think that she is really charming and people love her. And she's like the true definition of a personality type that an influencer should have. And I don't know that podcasting was her medium.

I don't know if she wants to do bigger and better. I mean, she's on the red carpet. It's like she will be a star. And I don't know if like was she phoned it in on her podcast. I don't know. I didn't listen to it. Admittedly I'd seen clips here and there. But I'm just curious what happened.

I very much want to know what went down. To your point, podcasting is obviously a really full-time job, producing a show, concepts, figuring out how to edit and all that. And if you have all these other aspirations of modeling and being in movies and doing influencer deals and traveling, I understand that it could fall by the wayside for sure. And your network might be like this isn't a priority. It's time to go. But don't tease that we're going to get information and not give it to me. Like, that's what I would speculate happened. And that's fine.

Yeah, that's normal. That's like, you know, we're literally making up this narrative ourselves. But just I guess it's like I relate to it. If I be like, I don't know, this seemed like a good idea at the time and I am good at it, but I want to be doing other stuff. I want to be a star. Not that you can't be a star podcasting, obviously. But it's just maybe that wasn't for her.

And maybe she was phoning it in a little bit and not maybe doing what she was contractually supposed to do or not. Maybe this is all on Alex Cooper in some way. I don't know. I just, I'm dying to know. And she said, how much time do you have? We're sat. Sis, we're ready.

I'll put on my schedule. I don't really have that much going on. It's just new heights. How much time? It's just the new heights podcast this week. That's all we got. I got plans Wednesday at seven. And that's honestly it.

And how much? I don't need a lot of time. Just send the chat chippy T one paragraph. Okay. And last but not least in our beef report, Todd Crisley, which let me just start by saying that Todd Crissly is a criminal and a fraud and like a Republican and a fake Christian and all those things.

He is one of the funniest people alive. And I used to watch that show for him. And I liked watching the family interact. And like he's so fucking naturally funny. Everybody's always said he's gay, which I always get like, you know, it's speculating on someone's sexuality and people say it in like an accusatory way. It's a bad thing. Of course he's married. He has children.

It's just like, I never want to be like, you're gay. Like, it's some sort of insult. I don't know. It's like, yes, he acts really flamboyant. Like, you would meet him and you would be like, oh, that is a cool gay guy. But apparently he's not. He claims to be straight. He's married to a woman, you know, like I said.

So obviously there's been these rumors, and I guess they've been going on for years. Again, I just, I've watched the show, so I've formed my own opinion. But yes, people have said for years that he was having an affair with his former business partner. And the business partner has come forward and said that, they had a sexual relationship for a long time as well. So Todd Crissly, who was busted out of jail by Donald Trump for no reason at all, is out and doing interviews about this. And he went on Candy Burris's show.

It's called, Speak on it. He wanted our podcast. And he had some things to say about his former business partner accusing him of being gay. And when these clips came across my desk, I was like, please God, let this be real. Please let this actually be happening. This isn't some AI simulation. It was crazy. Okay, so Todd Crisly is once again

clapping back at claims he's gay and he had an affair with his former business associate Mark Braddock. He didn't just clap back. He was like, let me say this with my whole chest. Let's just be very clear. If I had fucked him once, he'd have come back for seconds.

He goes on. He said it was a one-time thing, thinks it was an experiment. You ain't experimenting on shit. You know what you're doing. I don't need to experiment giving hands. If I wanted to give head, I'd give head. Honestly, in that moment, I was like, he is straight.

Same. If he's out here, like, if I wanted to give head, I would give head. If I wanted to be gay, I would be gay. You think you could have tasted this once and not come back for more. So here's the thing. I want to break this down. And then we have more from Todd, but from 2023. So this, okay, if I had fucked him once, he'd have come back for seconds is a very funny clapback to someone who says you hooked up once.

But it's also like, that's almost implying that you would have fucked them again. You know, like when you really break it down, like if some guy said he fucked me and I'd be like, he didn't fuck me. If he did, he would have come back for seconds. Like, it's more like, and then what I have done it. Like, I'd be like, I would never fuck that person in the first place. His whole thing is like, he would have come back. You know what I'm saying?

I don't know. I thought it was such a brutal insult at first. And I was like, I don't know. It's kind of weirdly admitting. I don't know. Maybe that's just me. That it would have gone on longer. I mean, I did believe him, though.

Like, it was like a real, like, bad bitch. Like, if they would have tasted this, they would have come back for more taste. But he could have tried and you shut him down, Todd. But I get it. I still get the sentiment. I'm thinking too deeply about it. I don't know. He seems so enraged by it and the clapbacks I buy them.

But it's, did you watch the clip? Did I watch the clip on repeat? The tone is just like it's what it is, though. He actually doesn't seem overly defensive. I guess it's, you don't hear. people use language like that. Oh, for sure. Very.

Just Christian man. Okay. So this isn't the first time that he's denied the allegations. So in January of 2023, in an episode of his Christley Confessions podcast, he said, what insulted me the most is that out of all these 54 years for me to finally be accused of being with a man, it would be someone who looked like Mark Braddock. Mark has been read to filth. who? Okay, Mark's not, I mean, Mark is not good looking, but he's not.

So, like, but also, like, if somebody said that about me, like, what insults me most is that she's ugly. Not that I would have been gay. It's just that that person is ugly. Todd Crisley has so much hate in his heart. No, I'm here for it. He is the clapback queen. So he says, let me tell you something. I could understand if you'd have had sex with me. It would make you crazy. I get that. There have been many who have been dignitized by your daddy. Are the women who have been dignitized in the room, or is it just Julie? It is just one person.

Has Julie ever claimed to have been dignitized? I'm not sure that this proves he's like gay or not. I feel like this is like, this is a, I never heard of a man come up with a comeback like this. This is female level comebacks. Like, don't, like, somebody that ugly can't claim to have fucked me. That's what he's saying. And if he did, he'd still be wanting it. Okay, so he doesn't stop.

I ain't that small spoon at Baskin Robbins. I'm the whole scoop. You don't just get to sample here. And then he says he would have been less embarrassed had George Clooney or Brad Pitt made the accusation. He's not actually mad that people think he's gay. He's mad because you think he fucked that ugly guy. So that does make me think he's straight. He doesn't like the implication that one, he'd fuck an ugly person, that two, you would fuck him and not come back for seconds.

He's like, I got that big daddy dick. Do you think he learned those lines in prison? Or you think he's... Well, do you think he's had those? It was in prison then? Probably. Okay. But you could do podcasting from prison?

You could do phone interviews from prison. But you're right. I'm not, he didn't hate on being gay. He hated on the way someone looked. Like it is, it's like, had it been like Todd, Candy is like, hey Todd, here's what's going on. George Clooney is saying you fucked. I feel like he'd be like, well, can you blame me?

I did, I did dignitize that daddy. Dignitonized. Who taught him that? Dick, I've always heard dickmatized. Yeah, he said it wrong. No, no, he's right. You think? Hypnotized.

Oh, he got the, oh, he's those good insults. No, it's like, it's a grammatically correct. Digmatized is like a, is the word structure is stigmatized. Like, we're talking hypnotized. Dignatized. Oh, you did break that down the right way. He brings Baskin Robbins into the mix. I'm the whole scoop.

You don't just get to sample this. Can you just see him just snapping the whole time? Okay. You know, let's just, before we get to Taylor, I just think this does lead us into hunting wives, because same types of families, these Southern Christian, NRA, card carrying, maybe, families who have all these secrets. And we are watching Hunting Wives. And you can speak out a little bit more. You probably watch my episodes than me. I think I've watched three, and I am so hooked. And this is obviously the number one show on Netflix, and it stars Britney Snow, and Malin Ackerman, who I recognize for a bunch of stuff, obviously. And I didn't know what to expect.

The little trailer they show on Netflix, like when they're like, oh, we don't work. We waft was a little, I was like, is this going to feel corny? Raina. I texted you and your fiance. I honestly was like this feels inappropriate

to text the two of you. Like, we were laughing so hard. So we were getting ready to watch a materialist, actually. I wanted him to watch it. And so Raina goes, the three of us on a group chat, can I encourage you guys to dabble

in hunting, wives on Netflix. It's bat shit. This show is so sexually explicit. I don't know how this is on Netflix. And he, my fiancee writes, we were going to watch materialist, but he does the eyes emoji. And then you, there's a lot of lesbian sex and group sex, but I respect your journey. 10 minutes later, we started it. We're in. He's kind of half watching it. He's been working on something that it's like actually so, I'm so proud of him. He's doing like such a great job. This thing he's starting. Anyway, so he was kind of working on that. And he was, but he can multitask really well.

So he was... You don't need to pay attention to this show. He's somehow doing his stuff and paying full attention. I'm asking him what's happening. There's a lot of lesbian sex. This show is like, I thought it was about this like southern community of people, which it is. And they're kind of MAGA and Britney Snow. And her husband moved from Boston.

They're this like liberal family. She has like a little bit of trauma. You're not like sure what it is when she moves down there. But she gets introduced these people. So the show was originally, I will say, developed for stars. It was supposed to be on like a movie type network, and then it was put on Netflix, and I do not understand how the show is on Netflix. Why?

Why? I can see this. Yeah, but Netflix is Netflix. It's streaming. It's R-rated. I mean, Netflix had that crazy show where that was like, there is a nudity. That's 27 days or whatever. I, there's tons of nudity and sex on Netflix.

There's naked. There's nudity. There's going down. She says, I'm going to swallow. There's women fingering each other. You're acting like it's CBS. There's all this stuff. on Netflix. I feel like this is the most explicit thing I have ever seen on Netflix.

But Netflix has tons of R-rated movies. This feels a little, this feels like another level to me. This doesn't feel like the most, like, the most, like, R-rated thing you've ever seen on Netflix. What would be that, like, whatever, what was it called, 127 days or something? I don't know. People thought it felt very, like, sex trafficy. That was crazy explicit sex. I don't think there's any, there's no parameters.

You can't be porn. it's like one... Netflix is like movies. That's how it started. I don't know you remember. I remember. This is very explicit for Netflix to me. I never thought that

that was up for a debate. Yeah, I was. They can play whatever. And Britney Stone was even saying that she was surprised. It is like very explicit. Well, whatever. It is so sexual.

Everyone's having sex. Everyone is deplorable. Everyone's just this like crazy bad person and they're all having sex. There's sex with seniors in high school and the parents in the community. Yeah, it's wild. It's the horniest show. 365 days.

Remember that? Criticized for its problematic themes, including romanticizing, kidnapping, and sexual assault. It was just, it was, again, I just started it and didn't. I'm trying to think do I ever see nipples out, somebody going down on a person. I think you're not watching the right stuff. I'm not watching the right stuff. I am not because I have not seen this stuff. So anyway, this show, it's taking a dark turn.

You can tell someone's going to die in the opening scene and where I am. She just, I had a feeling of who it was and they just found her dead in the woods. And you're kind of starting to piece together what's happening and how they're going to, whatever, I don't want to give too much away. But check it out. I mean, it's riveting. It's crazy. It is crazy. But I do.

I enjoy it. It makes me very horny. It's great. All right. Let's just take a quick break. and then we will get into some Taylor stuff. Okay, you guys. Searchlight Pictures, new movie.

It's called The Roses. You're going to love the plot of this. It's about this perfect couple. It's played by Benedict Cumberbatch and Olivia Coleman. And they sort of like have it all. It's successful careers, this great marriage, great kids. And his, Theo's career comes crashing down. And Ivy's fame starts to like skyrocket.

So it's this like tinderbox of fierce competition between the two of them and growing resentments. It's like threatening to destroy everything they have between each other. But honestly, it's for anybody who's ever been in a relationship. It's a very, like, crowd-pleasing comedy. Oh, my gosh, I'm so excited. And like I said, it stars Benedict Cumberbatch and Olivia Coleman. It is from the director of Meet the Parents and also Poor Things, two movies.

I absolutely love it. And this will be out soon. So it's in theaters everywhere, August 29th. You guys can get your tickets now. It's just great. Yeah. We love it. We love anything that kind of starts with a couple that everybody thinks is perfect and actually, like, what's really going on.

So we are recording this before the New Heights podcast comes out with Taylor Swift. So this will be some predictions. and just talking about, you know, what's been happening up until then. And then we'll see if we were right once it's theirs. Well, we pretty much know. I mean, so this, for a few days,

New Heights posted something. It showed a silhouette. People assumed it was her. And everyone was like, Taylor is going on her boyfriend's podcast. Taylor Swift is going to be on a podcast. Has she ever been on a podcast? No, first podcast to ask you. Okay. So she's done like late night. She's been on tonight show. But she's never done a podcast. So she's like, is this serious? And then everyone's starting, speculating what is it going to be, is what she going to announce? And then last night it dropped. And they showed the clip. And she is announcing her new album on a podcast with these football brothers. I know it's her boyfriend, but this is crazy. Such a nice color on you. Yes. I know. It's the color of your eyes, sweetie. That's why we match so well.

I'm about to do a podcast. I want to break it all down. So cannot believe what they gave us to tease this ahead of time. The first clip was just Taylor and Travis, just being cute, being sweet, and the internet went wild. It was my entire feed. He's calling her sweetie. He says he wears this sweatshirt, the same colors her eyes, and the internet went crazy. And then within like 30 minutes, they drop a clip that

she is dropping her new album on this. I mean, they didn't need to do this because, like, it would have been the most streamed episode of all time no matter what. I know. Like, now I don't feel, you know me. I like Taylor Swift, of course, and I really do like respect her. And I

like her music. I don't identify as a Swifty necessarily, but I'm not a hater. I don't know. I don't know that I'm would have tuned in. I'm like, oh, now we, clearly more is going to happen, but now I feel like we got the main event, and it's crazy because she kind of unboxes this

thing, and I'm sorry, I get it that New Heights is recorded virtually, but Jason couldn't be in person for this. We got to do it on Zoom. Taylor Swift is showing her new album to Jason Kelsey on Zoom for the first time. Couldn't be in person, couldn't fly out. He's like, oh wow, cool new album. Like,

I get it. I like love all of it and I love Jason Kelsey. Obviously, go birds. But it was just like, this is crazy. It's such a big deal and this will be the biggest most streamed episode of all time and I'll tell you why I think that. You don't even need to tell me why, but. But I mean, people would have tuned in just to watch the two of them interact. I don't think that there's ever really been footage of the two of them next to each other and having a conversation. I mean, what is it? So, like, without the album, I just, I love her music and I'm thrilled and I can't wait to, like, hear it.

But honestly, the bigger draw for me is just watching them interact. A hundred percent. I don't. I will probably love the album. It's, that's not it for me. You know how I feel. Beyonce different story. Like, that's my girl.

Like, I would be losing my mind. Like, when we know about the next Beyonce album, which people are saying it could be a rock theme, I'm going to lose my mind the way that all the Swifties are losing their mind. But yes, for me, it's like, I got to see her on this podcast. They have a clip of her going, we're about to do a fucking podcast. Yeah, we're also losing our minds. We're going to see you in a podcast. And like, I don't even know what to think.

Like, that clip was, it felt a little cringe to me. Like, I know the couples are cringe. Like, but it was just like it's the same colors. Your eyes, sweetie. I was like, what is about to happen. You know what they're like. They're just like these everyday couples. And it's so endearing.

That's why everybody loves them. And they just seem like normal. Of course she's announcing her album. The biggest thing on the. the fucking planet on her boyfriend's podcast. How long do you think he's been asking, babe, will you do my podcast? How long do you think wondering has been like, can we get Taylor on the podcast? Years.

And also how many podcasters do you think have slid in now? Taylor, will you do my podcast? Since you're doing podcast, do you want to do my podcast? I just assumed she was going to do like Alex Cooper. Like I thought she'd do like bigger shows. But her boyfriends, I just, I can't believe that like they didn't need to drop that the album was dropping. Like what's going to happen on this actual podcast?

It's like they already gave it away. But like more stuff's going to happen? More stuff's going to happen. I mean, people are wondering what the new era is. And I was asking you, like, what's the deal with orange? She's just wearing orange. So I'm not that level of like Taylor's strip. A fandom.

I don't, the Easter eggs and all this stuff. Like The Blind, Lady and the Blind. She has a countdown on her website. Yes. I mean, the new album is huge. And it's called Life of a Showgirl, which like, honestly, it's like a spicy title. And I think that's fun. But like, I just want you to know, like, the other place

is she has announced her album dropping. She has announced it on social media, on Instagram Live, at the Grammys. It's mostly social media posts. Yeah, I remember the Grammys one. And the Grammys is like where most of this has happened. This is great.

I love this. I mean, it's brilliant. And we love it as podcasters. It really makes me feel like podcasting is like the thing. I just love this, but it's just crazy to me because her and Beyonce, like the most famous women in the world, They transcend podcasting to me.

And that's like no offense to us. But I was just thinking like, what if Beyonce was just on like busting with the boys? You know, like I was just laughing thinking about her. She's on a podcast with like two rappers, you know? Like it's just funny she's going to fucking sit there and put headphones on

and talk to Jason Kelsey on Zoom. At his desk. They don't use Zoom. They probably use something different. Whatever. Whatever. Whatever. Well,

they're not filming in a studio together. It's just funny to me. She's trying to like unbox this album and she doesn't even like room between her and the wall behind her and the chair and the desk. It's crazy to watch. Okay, so my prediction is, of course, this will be the most dreamed podcast episode of all time. And I'll tell you what the other bigger ones are. And I'll tell you my theories for obviously why. So the three biggest of all time, Kat Williams and Shannon Sharp, 90 million. That's the top. Love this. Dad. Okay. Which that was crazy tea.

So people say that they loved it so much and not just men tuned in, like women tuned in for the tea. Kat Williams just went all the way off. Yes. So that's number one. And then number two, number three are both Joe Rogan, the Elon Musk interview and the Donald Trump interview. So you have three interviews of all men. You have some pretty like maga, right wing people. This is the biggest sports star in the world with the biggest pop star in the world. They transcend like party lines and country lines and everything. Like who wouldn't tune into this? And it reminded me kind of of when like Nikki Glazer did the Tom Brady roast and like her career blew up so much. Yeah, this will be Taylor Swift's big break.

Yeah, this will be our big thing. It's just, it's the thing. Like, the time Brady rose, like, you had everything. You had, like, comedy and sports and you had Netflix and everybody on planet Earth tuned into this. Like, what could be bigger? And, like, they just check every single box. It's just a fucking podcast. You're right.

It looks tight in there. She really, she's fumbling to get that case open. So these two athletes are, like, pull it together. Kylie would have this handled. We're a little lip kit. Kylie, Travis's wife. What products is she launching? Okay.

Do you have any favorite memes? Because I'm loving the life of a showgirl memes. And I have a personal favorite. It just made me laugh out loud. The life of a show. With Carrie and Bag. And it's Carrie when she showed up to Biggs apartment in the top hat. She came from the BDSM bar.

And she just has her whip in between her mouth. that she was like trying to be so sexy. My favorite was something along the lines. If you have it, you'll have to read it to me. Like, this is like the Super Bowl for annoying people. Yeah, but then people who wrote that were like, it's me.

I'm the annoying people. It's me. I put an Instagram story before we came over in my Taylor So sweatshirt. Like, I just did that thing. Like, stay tuned for Thursday. Like, I'm a fucking nerd for this shit. I like my place on the Taylor Swift spectrum where I can really get excited for people.

And I think people go. so hard. They like Kate Kennedy, Eli Rallo, like decoding everything and they have all the history and they know all the lore and they're doing their predictions and oftentimes they're right. And I eat it up. And I love to see the pure joy. Because that's how I want to be supported with stuff that I'm obsessed with. Do you feel like, okay, so the colors for this are this like bright green and this like glittery orange. It looks very like football coated. It looks like I designed this for my boyfriend. I'm just buying a team.

But don't you think she just like, it's just like a cover that just like looks like our boyfriend stuff? Orange is hot. I mean, it's everything is orange. Like, so I think it's going to be obviously the color of the next year for sure. My hope is that it's like some more upbeat music. We've had some like low key, some low key music, which I love bits and pieces of it. But I wanted to dance a little bit. Yeah, the life of a show girl, well,

the tortured poets department, I think you know you're getting some low-fi beats. That was not low BPM. Yeah, you weren't dropping it down to those beats. Not a beat drop in sight. But this would, I would assume, I mean, just

showgirl in general, I'm assuming it's going to be more upbeat. Also, it's about Travis, and it's not going to be like Matt Healy. Like, try to drop a beat to Matt Healy. Okay. Okay, so we'll be watching again. It will have aired now. Okay, so give me your prediction.

So if the number one podcast episode is 90 million streams, what do you think this is going to be? I just, that'll be day one. I think 200 million. I mean, this will double that in a second. People saying that it is not, are you insane? Who would say that? A man, I heard a man say it this morning. Oh, it's good.

He's like, no, there's no way Taylor Swift will beat Shannon Sharp and Kat Williams. Elon Musk. And then at the same time this is happening, Travis Kelsey's GQ cover dropped. and it's giving Lana Del Rey's husband. He's like in the water with alligators. He's like wrestling alligators. It's very Florida-coded. He's holding an Hermez duffel bag in the water.

And then the cover says what America's sweetheart for him. And then people are kind of tying that back to Taylor Swift. And they have a bunch of theories, whatever. But he's really in his moment too. And obviously this was all coordinated with the tree-pane house of PR. Right. That's the publicist, right? Yeah.

That does all this. Can I just tell you like what a pleasure it was when I woke up this morning? Like, my feed is just, it's all Donald Trump. It's every second. It's some terrible thing happening in the world. Like, the surge of adrenaline going through my bot. There's nothing on my feed besides the two of them, the GQ cover, and Taylor Swift and predictions. And, like, they're what America needs right now.

Like, we need some joy and we need to be uplifted. And they're the couple to do it. Well, speaking of Donald Trump, he is trying to redecorate the Oval Office. He's been doing it. He's at it. No one has tackier taste. So since he got into the White House again somehow, every day it's like a new...

Every day it's like a new thing of him trying to disrespect former presidents and take down all their design ideas, take down their portraits. And now he has made it godier than ever. Yeah. So he's doing a bunch of different things. Everything's gold.

He's like a evil villain king. Personified. You know, we've always said he's like what poor people think rich people are. And that's what he actually, acts like with all the gold and being so showy. Like he's just such an embarrassment. And like what's happening in the country?

Like I just, I can't even believe it what's happening with like ice and with just everything else. But this on top of it, like he's just actually ruining this landmark. I mean, this is not something any president would have ever think of doing. Like what in the fucking Frankenstein house is this going to look like? No, he is putting a ballroom on the side of it. So he is just like this like evil villain cartoon. He demolished the rose garden at the White House, which is so crazy.

Just joy, you were just like, I'm just going to demolish joy. I mean, when he got rid of the rose garden, I was like, people really voted for a president that hates flowers and dogs and thought this would be okay. Also doesn't drink. I know that you do too, but he also likes his stakes well done. And I accepted when you do a little medium plus, but well done. That came out of nowhere. I do not like them well done. I said medium plas, you like a little over here.

I feel hot in my body. She really doesn't like people talk about this. It's not even that. I just like can't believe you compare me to him and that's what you use. Like you know it's sensitive. I'm really sorry. I don't like a bloody steak. I feel like I'm going to cry.

You will eat steak tart jar. This revolting man. And you're like, well, you do like your steaks at the same way. No, because you know Donald Trump eats a well-done steak with fucking ketchup on it. And I would never. And a water. A coat. Like a bitch.

Coke happy. So he is renovated. He demolished the Rose Garden. He's watering around on the roof. He turned the Oval Office into, I don't even know, the Palace of Versailles, but like, cheesier. There's just gold leaf everywhere. He's taking down. He changed the rug out.

He took the blue rug out that Obama put in there. Put this white rug in there. And now he's spending $200 million to make a ballroom behind. the White House that is bigger than the White House. I feel so sickened by this. Like, I just, it's, I mean, but it's, it's par for the course with everything he's done. It's just like the sheer disrespect

and how unnecessary this is. Like, for what balls? Like, no one likes you. You don't have any friends. Like, who's coming to this? Like, it's fucking Bridgerton. So allegedly, this, there's just this man standing outside our door.

You're just trying to sell somebody something. I heard them earlier. He said, he did say, by now. The president dropped a nuclear bomb on the economy and I was like, I'm into that guy. So anyways, allegedly this will be finished in 2028, so he won't even be the president anymore.

I can't wait for that year. I mean, hopefully. But what I find the most disgusting is the people who didn't know better and voted for something that would hopefully change their circumstances in life and allow them to afford things, how do you feel about him taking $200 million and putting it towards building a little ball? And he got on television and was like, I'm amazing at ballrooms. People say, people say, I'm amazing at ballrooms.

I cannot wait until 2028 when we bulldoze this to the ground, when he's out of the White House and take my money, take my tax dollars. To bulldoze it. Yes. Tell me that's what my money is going to be used for. If I could drive that bulldozer. Erase all signs he was here.

Watch that ballroom crumble. Okay, I have an amazing fundraiser idea. Okay. What if they let people pay to come take sledgehammers to the walls? Oh my God, like a one of those rooms. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Where you go destroy everything. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

What is it called? Whatever, I don't know. I would donate so much money to charity if I could just go just swing an hammer at that ball. Oh my God. Yeah, that could just cover the 200 million. People see him on TV saying people say, I'm very good at ballrooms. I'm known to be good at ballrooms. And I wanted to do this last time, but I was busy last time I was the president.

That's what he said? That's just a direct quote. He's busy now. He golfs every day. J.D. Vance has taken, what, eight vacations to however many countries and states that nobody wants him there? I just can't with these people. I mean, him wandering around on the roof.

Like someone's senile grandpa that's not supposed to be allowed out of the house. Yeah, you call the police and you say this man is wandering around. Yeah. And just walk a little closer to the edge. Come on, just a little closer. We'll get you down. Just slide down the wall. No, we have a thing down here to catch you.

Just take a leap. We'll catch you. Okay. So just a quick Instagram update. So they did this crazy thing where you could just see everybody's location. It felt like a really egregious invasion. privacy, and you can speak on a little bit more, but this was so wild. This really scared a lot of people. This was last week, right? So I first found out about this happening because your fiance group

texted us and said that one of our friends' exes was just sharing his location on Instagram. Our friend's ex blocked her and removed all her friends' followers. Me and you. I never followed him. No, it was, it was you and a couple, someone else. Okay. I was never, he and I never followed each other. Okay. He didn't do that far in your friendship. He kind of got rid of everybody being able to his stuff except for my fiance. So he fires up the group chat. He's like, let's just say his name is John. He was like, hey, I can still see John's location.

We lost it. We're like, last night he was showing me his story. He was like, here he is with the dog. He's like the only one that gets to see what he's doing. Oh, no, he let me back in. Oh, he did. Okay, got it. But that's how we saw it.

And it's just like, I guess they said people had to opt in. But to me, I'm like, if this, if it wasn't 2025 and like the world wasn't on fire, I feel like this would have been a much bigger deal. Like this feels like a real violation of privacy. People's lives could be in danger. Like your crazy X sees where you are. Like wasn't showing people's exact location for the most part? So it's a little convoluted what the feature is supposed to do and the opt-in.

So basically it was saying that the features launched on August 6. It allows users to optionally share their last active location with select people. So mutual followers, close friends. And it updates whenever the app is. open or runs in the background. So as long as you don't quit the app, it is updating. Other things that people got scared about is that they had posted a location, like they had geotagged a restaurant, and it showed them at the restaurant currently.

And it scared people thinking, like, oh, God, it knows where I am. Because Instagram was saying, you have to opt into this. However, mine wasn't on. Mine was on. Okay, it was. So I had to go in and I went in through my settings, and it says, you have to go in your settings. I have to go my settings, not Instagram settings, like the phone settings and it says like location sharing services. If you guys just, I can't give you the

how to, you just Google it. Location services, then you choose the apps. I chose Instagram and I had to manually shut mine off. Yeah. So it says allow while using or never allow. And so I would do never allow for most things. Sometimes you do, I don't know, food delivery apps. Like there's certain things you do want them to know your location. But like so my location is always off for Instagram. So even when I go to tag a location, I have to manually put it in. because it doesn't know where I am. Because it's just, I did not like this. No, I don't like it at all.

It's scared a lot of people. This is crazy. It really, yeah, you're just like, people, strangers in some cases, can see where I am. What the fuck is going on? It's all really scary. We're all just like being surveilled.

But, you know, I like to know where our friend's ex is. Just, you know, just to sluth. But, yeah, I had to turn my off. So, yeah, so turn it off. And again, like, there's TikTok tutorials and all the things of how to turn off. If you guys aren't clear and you want to. And then also now Instagram is allowing repost. which do you remember like we would have apps third party to do that remember like it would say

it would have like the little repost across the bottom so this isn't like a new concept but it's just going to make it easier and what one click and you are reposting people's content in your own feed yeah allegedly there's a separate tab um that shows that you've reposted it and then the third rollout is that they brought back something that used to exist on instagram where you can see what like your friends and the followers are liking and sharing people do not like this I don't have this future yet, thank God. I don't, I just, I don't need people to know what I'm doing, what I'm sharing. I don't feel like it's like a violation. I'm not sharing any like crazy, terrible, hateful, Manosphere, Maga, nothing stuff. I don't need, I don't need people to know what I'm

doing. It's mine. Yeah, we don't need this back. I don't know. This caused a lot of anxiety. You know, if you're dating somebody, you want to see what they're, what they're doing. Like, I don't know, yeah, it's fun to stalk, but we don't really need this. I don't, I don't really need it. I don't want it and it just would make me stop sharing stuff. Yeah, it feels desperate. They're like, we got to keep people on this app. Okay, well, we are just going to talk about our remaining partners, and then we will get into some headlines and send you guys on your way.

Okay, Ashley, Addy, our Little Pink Pill sponsor, is becoming a whole vibe of its own. I know. I've been hearing about it and seeing it everywhere. I just saw that Gwyneth was talking about Addy. Oh.

Okay, so your headlines, and then we'll send you guys off. Anna Delvey, America's favorite heister.

She's at it again. Okay, so she abandoned some bunnies in Brooklyn? In Prospect Park. Okay. Yes. So she had, it's very funny, the page six article about this was like she just had this, like, rag-tag group of people. She was doing some photos with the bunnies.

She was doing the Nicki Minaj. challenge and she's like holding these bunnies in this like photo shoot in Brooklyn and taking these photos and people know she was posting about it and then people said that they had seen the bunnies in Prospect Park and as I lived in Park slope for many years I used to go to Prospect Park I mean I'm sure there are bunnies I never saw one um so yeah there's rabbits all around but also like this is a different vibe this looks like a big meaty domesticated bunny not like the kind you see running It doesn't look wild.

Yes. Looks like the kind from a pet store. So people are accusing her of doing this. She says, I never did it. And then, so somebody involved in the shoot, a member of the group copped to turning the bunnies loose. So essentially, when people take photos with animals, there's tons of companies that take care of animals

that will lend them to you ethically for the day, and a handler will come with the animals, and they'll give them to you, and they'll make sure they're handled properly and collected properly. So allegedly, either the photographer or the set helper, whoever, I mean, she's just taking photos just randomly, bought these bunnies from somebody. And then at the end of the day, those people were like, we're not taking this back. And because the people refused to take the bunnies back, because that was never on the table, they just let them loose. Oh, sick.

I don't even know if I believe that story. I mean, she is a scammer and a liar. I think she just got these bunnies and left him in the park. Absolutely. Ugh. So people took him? I don't know people took them. People found them.

I don't know the fate of the actual bodies. Like are they being fostered right now? Are they up for adoption? We'll update you guys. Go get your bunnies. But somebody involved in the group did say that they just wouldn't take them back. So the bunnies is loose. She said, I don't know.

I don't know anything about this. It has nothing to do with me. Oh, we trust you, Anna. Yeah. Yeah. No, that sounds totally believable. That's a person who's word I would take. So anyways.

Okay. So next up, AOL is pulling the plug on dial up. internet services. What year is this? Did you know they were still doing dial-up? Absolutely not. I mean, it's, again, it's every time something closes and then I'm like really sad about it, whether it be a restaurant or a show. And I'm like, that's so sad. And then I'm like, but I have not prior. I haven't used this in 20 years. You feel like that about this. I feel like that about this. I can't feel like that about this because I had no idea. People were still dialing up. Can you imagine being at someone's house and you heard that sound?

I would start dancing. The dial-up AOL sound. Take me right back. Oh my gosh. I'm like just feigning to get to Napster. I remember to download Eminem songs. In a chat room. In a chat room. You be in the chat room, showing your titties. I'm on Napster.

Downloading Stan by Eminem. You never had like chat sex with people? I did not. I was not talking to grown men when I was 12 years old. I was 13 and I was problematic. So I don't know. This is like an interesting thing. I didn't know they were still doing dial up.

So end of an era, I guess, you guys. Tell us if you knew that AOL was still doing dial up internet service. They're like they're entering the, new millennium? I mean, the feeling in my body when that was when I heard that sound, and I knew I was about to get on aim and just like talk to guys from like middle school. What a rush. Okay. And lastly, little engagement report. Cristiano Ronaldo proposed to his longtime girlfriend. I think they have five children together.

Okay, yeah. They've been together eight years. Yes, they've been together eight years. Her name is Georgina Rodriguez. She briefly had a show on Netflix also. So I watched a little bit of their lives. Also way less sex and nudity than. hunting wives, but they were not married. It's just his girlfriend. So he proposed to her. This article says stunning massive diamond ring. I have other feelings. I mean, it is the size of a golf ball. Okay. So there's, we don't have the exact details on the ring, but they're guessing, experts are guessing it can fall anywhere between two and five million dollars. And a jeweler estimates the center stone to be over 30 carrots. 30. I just sit on the mic. I'd never heard

that my life. I didn't know that existed. This ring, it, but rich people are going to do rich things. You know, people are like, you could have bought a boat with that. Yeah, we say this all the time. He is all the money in the world. This is not surprising to me. I just hate the look. It looks like a cockroach. Like someone else recently had a ring this big. Oh, Lauren Sanchez with Jeff Bezos. It looks like a literal like cockroach diamond crawling in your hand. Like, it looks insane to me. Money cannot buy you class. Countess Louan. People are saying seven and a half million up to 30 carrots.

I mean, it looks so ridiculous. And listen, if you squeeze out five kids to some man, I think you deserve the world. I think it's just a flex, right? You're not wearing that day to day. It would be dangerous to do so. It's just to show how much money you have. And if that's what you want to do, that's fine. But like we said, we just feel like this is on the way out, this flaunting of wealth.

And it's fine. they're going to do them. I guess I don't understand the point of it, I mean, other than to flaunt your wealth, but I don't know, he doesn't need to prove he's wealthy. He's the most famous sports star in the history of time. Yeah. They clearly have all the money in the world. You could never wear this out in public.

It has to go into a safe deposit box. You could never walk out the door with this. I know. And I would want something from my partner that I could like wear outside. Yeah. Like, where are you going to wear this? And I really long honored the days of wearing stuff like this.

And there was two really highly publicized robberies. The second most popular Kinsley from Real Housewives burglars broke into her house, tied her up, stole over things. And there's a lot of talk on Real Housewives and Bravo in general of all the B-roll that shows people's homes and where they live and how to find them. And then most famously, Kim Kardashian's robbery and being had a gunpoint

by multiple men and being stolen. And so many celebrities took note and we're just like, I'm not going to post where I am in real time. I'm not going to plot all this stuff. Because like, why would you not rob these? people. I mean, I guess, but it's like you should be allowed to show off your engagement ring. Who's not going to? I guess you know that they have the most expensive stuff in the world. I mean, who's going to rob them? They probably have the biggest security team on planet Earth. Right. Like you knew they had, like you don't need to see this ring to know that there's stuff you could

rob them for. It just looks like a joke. It looks like a Johnny. Looks like a cockroach. She's wearing like a yacht on her hand. Yeah, exactly. And I'm with you. I mean, yes, this money could have been spent on other stuff. Of course it could have. Of course we believe that. And like, again, this like wouldn't be the choices we would make. but it's just when people kind of think they have a hot take with what you could have bought with this. It's like how much money do they actually have so much more than that? So much more than $7 million. Seven million is a drop in the bucket for him.

He probably made that on interest today. Yeah. Just one kick. Okay. Well, that's your snack, you guys. Hope you enjoyed Girls Gotta Eat.com. Girls Got to Eat podcast on Instagram and TikTok. I am Ash has.
