Welcome to The Snack, a lighter serving of Girls Got to Eat.
This is a Dear Media production.
Enjoy.
Hi, guys.
Hi, guys.
What up, everybody?
Wait, what did you hear the guys say?
I was going to open, okay, so I was going to open with a pop culture report of our own.
So we're in this office park, and next to us is this boiler room of just like 20-something-year-old guys with headsets that walk around with scripts, and they're just like pitching stocks all day.
Timu, Wolf of Wall Street.
Yes, they just walk out to the courtyard and like I hear them on calls.
And yesterday I heard maybe one of the biggest douchebag lines.
But I was like, look at him go.
And he said, don't think about this as an investment in your finances.
Think about it as an investment for your legacy.
Legacy.
And you know some dumb man on the other line got so hard.
It's so hard.
My legacy.
What's my legacy?
I'm going to be so fucking rich when I buy these penny stocks or whatever the fuck they're doing over there.
I feel like the stakes are getting higher.
I feel like they're saying crazier shit every single day.
They're all just trying to one up each other.
Yes, one of them was hot.
We both stopped talking.
He walked by us just now.
Statistically, one of them's got to be okay.
That's true.
There's 20 fucking dudes in there in the bullpen.
I think one of them just tried to ask me out.
I was tall and hot.
I just walk in there.
Hi.
Yeah, you just have to walk in here.
Can someone explains finance to me?
Yeah.
I'm a dumb girl.
Okay, well, guys,
big announcement already announced Monday but tomorrow if you're listening tomorrow Friday August 8th
my special tickets are on sale and my Philly show are on sale so I actually misspoke on
Monday I had the date right but the day wrong I said Thursday August 8th I was trying to remember which one
was more important to me but if wrong it's wrong wrong wrong wrong is wrong I need to go talk to those
guys next door and get them to set me straight because I'm just a stupid girl think about saying the date right
as an investment in your legacy in my legacy so anyway this is my legacy my legacy is on sale tomorrow
It kind of is.
It really is, actually.
You're having kids.
It's your legacy.
So the Philly show, I am so, so excited.
That is going to be Thursday, September 25th.
That is on sale again, August 8th, Friday at 10 a.m.
Local time.
And then the special is Saturday, October 11th.
Filming in New York City.
Two shows.
Those are going to be on sale.
And it's just so important to me.
And it will mean the world to see you guys all there.
And you've been along on this journey.
And so if you live in New York, of course, I want you to come.
if you can make it there, make a trip out of it.
I really wanted to have it on a Saturday night so people could come and spend the weekend
in New York, best time to be in New York.
October will make you move to New York.
October will make you move to New York.
We might not leave.
That really is the best time to be there.
And so really, I'm so thrilled and I'm really proud of myself and I'm just so excited.
And of course, Philly, I mean, I work so hard to get that date.
I think Andrew almost fired me.
He was like, you got to.
No, he was great.
but I was like, it has to, we have to get Philly.
So you guys please come.
And that city winery is gorgeous.
I'm just really excited.
And then, of course, I still have some, a few tickets left probably for San Francisco
and the San Diego late show Atlanta and Charlotte are sold out and then Boston.
So ending the whole tour, the grand finale is technically not the special.
It is in Boston at the Wilbur.
And that is going to be October 12th.
And all these are available at ash has.com, the Sex Before Marriage Tour.
It's only a few more months of it.
Do you think you're going to miss it when it's over?
Yes, stop. I will cry right now. This has been really meant so much. I put so much like work and time and effort and travel and I've had all these memories on the road. And after this and then it's just like obviously full court press on the wedding and then what?
What will you have to live for on November 2nd? What am I going to do?
No, seriously, the amount of time I have to spend running around for you and supporting you and showing up for you by outfits for you, by playing tickets.
Like, what am I going to do?
I'm going to go my own tour.
You guys, buy tickets to my tour November 2nd.
I'm going to do one woman show.
Obviously, I love this.
That's the day after the wedding.
It's Raina's turn.
That's what the tour is called.
It's Rain is turn now.
I'm just thinking like Babies for a stand-up tour.
No, it's...
Rain is turn.
I love this, but you guys, we are going to do a couple of holiday shows.
That's what we're going to have to live for.
Huh? That's what we're going to have to live for.
Yeah.
They're going to be insane because we're just going to do it a couple.
We're only doing a couple.
So the outfits, we're going to full, all the attention is going to be on you for those.
Why?
Because I dress so slutty?
Should the holiday shows be, it's rain his turn now?
Should that we just brand that?
No, you have good branding for the holiday shows.
I do.
No, I would love for you to go on a tour.
Let's do it.
I'm retiring.
Let's win it.
I'm just.
I'm handing it over.
I'm ready.
I did so good this weekend.
I'm passing the torch.
That was great.

Okay, so we're going to kick it off with a new,
couple report.
A lot of these,
you just never saw it coming.
You didn't.
Yeah, well,
we did touch on Katie Perry
and Justin Trudeau.
Is this confirmed now?
No, so he went to her concert.
Okay.
Was it Montreal or Toronto?
It was one of her Canadian concerts
last weekend,
but people said that his daughter
wants to be a pop star,
and so he's just like linking them up together.
But, I mean, I'll say what I said.
So he's using her.
It was a professional connect.
Okay.
But I don't know, I kind of love it.
I love this, like, politician,
pop star thing? Like, it's the coolest thing a politician could do. It definitely does. It feels like a TV
show. Yes. Okay. And Liam Neeson and Pamela Anderson. I mean, a thing you just never saw coming.
But people are saying that Liam Neeson is one of the biggest hammers in Hollywood. What? Yeah. I had no,
I've never thought about him or his dick like that. I just know him from Taken and that's all I got.
But he's like sexy and taken. People say he is a huge hammer. Okay. And I saw, she needs a big dick. That's what I'm saying.
loves a hammer.
Yeah.
I saw this headline about Pamela Anderson that, like, really made me laugh.
It said, Pamela Anderson breaks her silence on Megan Markle's cooking show.
I saw that.
What, did you read it?
Yeah, of course.
So I was like, we needed Pamela Anderson to break her, break her silence.
Right.
Her silence gets me every time.
When it's not that deep, it's just so extra.
I also love like, seen for the first time since fallout.
It's like, yeah, people just, they leave the house.
Right.
So basically Pamela.
Anderson had a cooking show very briefly.
And so they were like asking her like ideas on Megan Markle's cook.
Like there was some beef or something.
And Pamela Anderson was like, I didn't invent cooking shows.
I don't feel beef about this.
Yeah.
There's room for everybody.
I just, I love, I love just how chill that responses.
Mm-hmm.
Okay.
She's like, I did invent sex tapes.
I did invent lifeguarding.
I did, I did invent the red,
that's your conscience.
I did invent the red one piece.
Red bathing suit.
Red bathing suit.
Okay, and lastly, Tom Cruise and Anna Dayarmus, people have speculated about this for a long time, but it's more confirmed now because they're just like together. I don't care who he dates. Who hates Tom Cruise? Like, isn't that weird? Don't you just automatically like get indoctrinated into Scientology? I mean, are all the women he dates Scientology curious or are they Scientology? No, it's weird. Why are we dating him?
So if you know as much about Scientology as me, which is a lot.
Yes.
He's their main guy.
He's the main guy of Scientology.
He's the top gun of Scientology, some would say.
People have said that, like, he was forced to break up Nicole Kidman because she wouldn't
like adhere to all this stuff.
And then he was with Katie Holmes for years.
And she has admitted that it was like some indoctrination.
They were trying to really push his beliefs on her.
And then there was another woman who came forward and said that Scientology, the Church of
Scientology basically, like, forced her to date him and, like,
dress a certain way, act a certain way, speak a certain way until she couldn't handle it anymore.
Nothing.
She didn't say she was being abused anyway.
She just said, like, the church forced me to do this essentially.
So, yeah, I think it's like Scientology or bust for Tom.
Yeah, like, I don't know.
By the way, he was one of my really early crushes.
I mean, I thought he was so hot.
I just thought he was so, I was young, but I still thought he was so sexy in Jerry McGuire
and I loved him in risky business.
So I was like an OG stand.
I think he was an incredible act.
He's like really one of the goats of our time.
But he's this weirdo Scientologist.
We've, with the video of him screaming at the cast member and crew on set that one time.
Jumping up and down on the couch.
He's just like a short weirdo.
Yeah.
And he's old now.
And not that he can't be like a daddy.
But I'm just like, he's not a hot commodity to me anymore.
Pedro Pascal is my daddy now.
Well, he's all of our daddies now.
If he's anxious, he's going to finger you.
I would love that.
I would love to be fingers.
People are just going up to Peter Pascal.
Are you anxious?
Do you want to stick your fingers?
You're going to touch me?
I can suck your thumb.
Honestly,
I'm like pretty far.
Patriot is like pretty far up on my list.
Like he's up there with Dave.
In age?
Yeah, like,
people I give it all up for.
Like, he's like right under Dave Batista for me.
What about Sherman Moore?
I would like to speak out about this.
Jesse MacCap, Eddie Sibrian, John Mayer,
Sherman Moore,
Josh Hoppins. Marmore.
I don't know people, not anyone,
only one person commented on our reel from last week with Sheena
and said Sherman Moore.
I'm paying into paint colors.
Sherman Moore is a paint color?
I thought it was Sherman, Benjamin Moore.
Benjamin Moore.
And Sherman Williams.
You inflated my paint company.
You just had paint on the brain.
Okay, well, our audience also thinks the same thing as one person corrected me.
Well, you don't, I guess you're not a big fan of Shamar
more in general.
Like, that was one of my also crushes from back in the day.
I think I am.
Maybe I, you know, reading is important.
We're going to talk about that later.
And sometimes I get going and I'm like, look at her go.
She's crushing it.
And then I flubbed something right towards the end.
It's so frustrating.
No, you read that.
We had Sheena last week, which was a really fun interview.
And you read that really quickly because it was long.
You went to like get it out.
We had limited time with her.
And so, like, it's understandable.
She was talking about all the dudes she fucked.
And I just, I got so amped.
But Dustin, our editor for the sack, tried to cut it out of the reel.
and I was like, put Sherman back in.
Because otherwise it just sounded like I was correcting you for no reason.
I did used to like misspeak a lot more than I do now.
It's because I read so much.
It helps.
But there was that reel of bloopers and we have these like Gigi blooper reals that I love so much.
But one of them was like very heavy on you having to correct me and you would like go back and like take some of them out because it was so much correcting of me.
there's one um this is just you know there's like just funny little like very obscure inside jokes you have
with like your friends your partners whatever in one of the early days blooper reels you were reading
probably something for i don't know athletic greens or whatever and you were like chaga and rashi
and you're like did i do it right and so i get this brownie i get this brownie from from um airwahn
and it's a chaga coconut chaga brownie and every time i get it my fiance holds it up and goes
Chaga and Rashi?
He thinks I'm funny.
It's so flattering.
Which is every time you speak.
There was something I said last week that he laughed at a lot.
He laughed at you all the time.
More than me.
Okay.
So next up, and just like that, has been canceled.
So this was so funny.
I think it happened while we were recording last week.
And somebody commented on one of our reels.
Somebody let Ashley know that it just like that was canceled.
Tell Ashley and just like that.
that was canceled. People were leaving comments on my latest reel on Instagram and on Girls Got to
Eat, which is so funny to me because yes, I did stop watching the show, but I didn't get off the
internet. They were like, SOS. Someone let Ashley know, like I'm off the grid. But I will say,
that was how I found out. That is how you found out? I mean, and then it was my whole feed, but I have
to admit that the girlies who were like, Ashley, hello. It's just so funny to think that that's how
you have to get the news to me. Like the second I got back on.
Instagram. It was my timeline, but that was the first thing I saw. And so they actually did
technically break the news to me. Thank you to our listeners. You guys are the real ones.
So after three years, the show has been canceled. And, you know, I'm enjoying the memes and people
being like, this is the worst show I've ever seen in my life and I will miss this terribly.
Yeah. You know, and I go back and forth. I feel like, I feel angry about this because I'm like,
you guys could have just made a good show. And these are people I really want to watch and these
storylines I really want to follow and like I love women in New York City that's my favorite thing to
watch I'm just I'm bummed and maybe yes some of the actors were like we gave it three years and we
don't want to work anymore on a TV set but like these seemed like people that wanted to work and
tell these stories and you got them out of retirement to do it essentially yeah and you just made a
bad show for three years and now it's over I'm sad I'm mad yeah like I I they ran this into the ground
with this like bad writing and bad storylines.
It didn't have to be like this.
And, you know, watching this,
you would see glimpses of like what it could be,
like a decent show.
And so you know they can do it.
You know they can do it because they did it before.
And it just says like,
how did we get to this place
where most of the show felt like a sitcom?
It felt like a joke.
Every single thing felt like it was daring you to make fun of it.
Yeah.
And so Michael Patrick King's,
who was the showrunner, writer, and director,
his statement on social media.
He says,
And just like that,
the ongoing storytelling
of the sex and the city universe
is coming to an end.
While I was writing the last episode
of, and just like that,
season three,
it became clear to me
that this might be a wonderful place to stop.
Oh, it wasn't that just like
everyone hates this fucking show.
Shut up.
Don't gaslight us.
I think they would have kept it going.
And people loved it?
Why not?
Why not continue to make like a great piece of art?
And it is possible, like I said,
that all the actors were like,
I signed number three years,
this is enough.
But yeah,
I mean, three years is a note, I guess, that is like a contractual time period.
And it's a notable amount of time for a show to be on.
It's just, I don't know.
I genuinely wonder if they look back on this and they're proud of this work.
Because like these women, these writers, all these people, they showed up every day.
They showed up and did their job every day.
Why could they not write good dialogue and have good storyline?
Yeah.
And Sarah Jessica Parker posted something that was like really emotional about how she's going to miss the character.
And that it's been her whole life is Carrie Bradshaw.
So I did tune back in, honestly, just last night.
So we could talk about today.
So I watched the episode nine where her and Aden breakup,
which everyone was actually saying episode eight,
where she goes to Virginia was good.
And I didn't realize that was a different episode.
So I was like, I want to watch the breakup episode at least.
There were moments that it was good.
And it felt like it should.
And the way they break up on the street felt really powerful.
And then there was also parts that were so corny.
There was a scene with like Harry and Charlotte where I was like,
God, how did they let this fly?
How does this make the cut?
And then it went right into the episode 10,
which then I just kind of like fell asleep.
And then,
so there's going to be a two part finale.
So it will be 12 episodes total.
So I guess the plan was a 10 episode season.
They're going to add these two extra episodes.
I think they're going to make them great.
I mean,
I think they've heard the feedback.
They definitely see the feedback.
Episode 8, 9, and 10 were stronger,
at least what people are saying,
and my own experience,
watching one and a half of those three were better.
than the rest of the season.
But I don't know.
I've just been thinking about this a lot.
Sex and City means the world to me.
It's my favorite show of all time.
And this won't tarnish my view on Sex and City at all.
Their legacy, yes.
I think about their legacy.
But like not the role that the characters played in my life
and not how much I love the show.
I was thinking like this show and just like that,
it was a different show.
It has a different name.
Of course, it's not all the same characters.
It was like watching a different show
with different people.
Yeah.
Like I was,
it felt like I was watching a show.
And that's why I stopped watching it.
Because I was like,
these aren't the same people.
And the show sucks.
And so I'm out.
It's like I'm not,
they just became not the women that I knew and loved.
And it was like fun to make fun of until it wasn't.
And I read this quote from the Guardian article.
And it's basically about hate watching.
Like, have we been hate watching?
Is that why we were watching it?
And I really just thought this was really like eloquently said.
She said,
the thing is, I don't believe that's what those of us who love sex and the city were doing, basically,
hate watching. For who else would bother watching and just like that through three unexceptional
seasons, I'd describe it as something closer to hope watching. We wanted to see the characters we loved.
Women want so convincingly and lovingly drawn, being flirty, frivolous, and fabulously dressed in New York
City. But more than that, we held out hope that something substantial might still remain beneath the
sparkle. In two episodes time, we'll finally know the answer. And if we're disappointed again,
at least it will be for the last time.
So as soon as, that was really beautifully written and sad.
That's what we were doing.
As soon as you said Hate Watch, I immediately thought,
I'm watching it hoping that they will write good dialogue.
Hope Watch.
I'm watching this, hoping, like,
they'll give any of these people the shakes that they deserve.
I mean, it's hard for me to, like, even articulate how much I hate what they have done
to Cynthia Nixon's character and Charlotte, Kristen Davis.
Kristen Davis, yeah.
I hate what they've done to both of them.
Carrie is sort of still Carrie.
But I feel like they made Miranda and Charlotte more neurotic, more disconnected from reality.
I mean, Charlotte, I know she's supposed to be this, like, cutesy upper-eside housewife,
but like they've made her this idiot.
I know, this like bumbling idiot.
I mean, Carrie just as a character, just seems really insufferable.
It's really extra judgy.
It's just kind of miserable.
But if you go back, she always was kind of judgy.
Yeah, yes, she's always judgy.
It felt different.
Maybe it's the way her face looks.
Like it's just, she's got this like permanent scowl.
She seems like she's just, the snarky remarks felt like escalated.
And it's not like lovable like it used to be.
Like there was a scene, it's so brief.
There's this moment in that episode I was watching and she's with Seema.
And Seema has to run out to a lunch and she has to be all the way on the
upper side or wherever in like 40 minutes.
And her assistant, she leaves the room.
She rushes out of the room.
And her assistant was like, is she going to make it?
And Carrie goes, it's going to be tight.
And I, like, laughed out loud, and I was like, oh, there's something about that one little thing, like, made me remember how it used to be.
And I don't even know how to describe it.
I was just like, that felt like the old Carrie, little snarky, but in more of a lovable way.
I don't know.
Yeah, that was just this moment.
Yeah.
And then Kim Cottrell.
She has entered the chat.
Who has been on the right side of history since day one, not doing the show.
Like, she gets to be like, I'm still on top.
I didn't do the show.
I didn't burn my legacy to the cruise.
Yeah, which she did do Sex and City, too, which was abomination.
And we pretend that ever happened.
But listen, I can separate the two.
But she posted a picture of a sunset, and it just said, it's the end of a very long week with a heart and a kiss lips emoji.
And people are saying it's shade?
I guess I'm just like, what did you?
I mean, all the comments are saying it's shade, obviously.
It's not totally outside of the realm of what she posts.
I mean, the post before that is just a bird.
And it says humming along.
It's from July.
I don't know.
I guess I'm just, the timing is odd, but she does post.
I mean, the last post before that was July 25th.
It was a hummingbird.
So maybe regardless, it's not like blatant shade because she does not stray away from that.
Like she, we've talked about before.
Like she is feed posted about her beef with Sarah Jessica.
So I think she's like, if she has something to say, she'll say it.
The timing is interesting, but I also am like, well, what is that supposed to me?
This is you throwing shade at the show.
This is you saying like, is the very long week all three seasons.
You're just like, thank God this is over, this abomination.
Yeah, let's get her on.
Somebody, I want to hear from Ken.
I want her to break her silence.
So that's over.
And I don't know, I guess I have mixed feelings.
Like, I didn't, you know, really like the show.
And sexnesty to me ended with the end of the first movie.
This is almost like when they reboot a show with a new cast, like 90210.
the new cast. I don't connect to it. I don't relate to it. It's not. Unfortunately, it was the same
people just crazy. Okay. We're just going to take a quick break and get back into it. I am telling
you guys about Nutraful. Raina, I haven't even told you that. I feel like I finally figured out
my hair issues. You did? I feel like all this time like it has been fully like growing. It's just been
breaking. Yeah. And like my hair grows. You know, I have the growth. It's coming out of all the
follicles. It's just breaking and it's dry. And so that's a different conversation in terms of
everything that I've done there and maybe I'll do more on it later. But it's growing and that is
due to neutrophil. And I have been taking neutroful for so many years. My hair changed completely a
couple years back due to some hormonal changes. And I really leaned on neutroful. And I just feel like
this has helped me with improved hair growth, decreased shedding, visible thickness. I mean,
I take my four capsules every day. I take the women's formula. And I got a, um,
pill thing, like a Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, like a weekly pill container.
So I never miss a day.
What a hot take.
Oh, I bought these really, we'll talk about it later.
But I'm saying, like, I was like, I do not want to miss a day.
I am so dedicated.
And sometimes you do because of life.
And this makes it so easy.
So it's like, I know that I've taken Monday because it says Monday, Tuesday.
And then every Sunday I refill the like pill container.
Anyway, so just a little pill hack for you guys.

Okay.
All right.
Skims is making shapewear for your face now.
You guys have obviously seen this.
It was just taking over the news feed last week.
I really swept the news feed.
And Ashley and I both saw this.
And we were like, well, we put on our face after surgery.
As someone who has had a chin implant, this was triggering to me.
If you know, you know what it looks like.
I mean, this is a post-surgery garment.
Literally.
I mean, we both had it.
And what is it?
It's $48.
Something like that.
It's called what?
The Ultimate Face.
When they dropped it, they said,
our first ever face innovation made with signature sculpting of fabric
and infused with collagen yarns for ultra soft jaw support.
Every surgeon and person that works in the medical field on the internet has flooded TikTok
and Instagram with comments about this.
I mean, I understand they're the shapewear brand and they're like, okay, face shape
where everybody wants this like snatched jawline and I mean, everybody wants to look like
Chris Jenner.
but every surgeon on planet Earth has come forward and said,
this is not only not shapewear,
it is counterintuitive to what you want to do,
that it's going to create inflammation that it's meant.
So I got lipo along my jaw and I wore one of those.
And you only wear it for a couple days.
And the doctor tells you, like,
after a couple days, stop wearing it.
Because you don't want that compression.
It's bad for blood flow.
Yes.
In terms of the function,
The only way I can think that this quote unquote works, which I don't think that it does, as most doctors don't as well, is that it's like a waste trainer where if you wear it overnight, you may look a little more snatched temporarily when you wake up, but that's not going to last.
Like you said, it's reducing blood flow.
Like that that's not how that works.
So it's just like, I can see a world in which that, like, you kind of don't swell, which you may during your sleep, whatever is going on.
Like, I can see where you might think temporarily when you wake up, like, oh, I looked more snatched.
And then the day goes on and your face goes back to normal.
Like, people have so many different problems with this.
And we'll kind of get into some more stuff that the doctors and plastic surgeons has said.
But like, they made this thing.
People are like, oh, thanks from the scraps from your other garments that we're supposed to put them on our face now.
and they just showed these skinny young models.
And it's interesting to me because, like, the Kardashians wouldn't wear these.
Like, they're getting the procedures.
So they probably have worn these post-op.
And so to me, it's very funny to be like, you should wear this.
We wear them, but you're not getting the surgeries.
It's like wearing a condom without having sex.
Like, you're not doing the thing to have had to have worn it.
I mean, you think that they look great and they do, but, like, they've done all these
things are obviously a hot take. And every, so the other part is that there's collagen threads throughout
this. And that's outside of the fact that every single person I've seen on TikTok, all these
surgeons, including our plastic surgeon, my plastic surgeon, he did my brass, has said there's no
such thing as collagen thrive. What does that mean? So I did see someone say that you, this could have been
soaked in collagen and technically, yes, it's not a lie. Because people were like, hello, this is nylon
on in spandex, where's the collagen?
Is the collagen in the room with us?
So it is collagen soaked.
There is collagen in there.
I know this isn't just like...
Well, they have to be able to prove it at that point.
To be able to market it.
But it's still not going to get in your face.
Do you think they take like collagen peptides and put it in the water to like wash the fabric?
Whatever they're doing.
Someone said they are soaked.
It doesn't matter.
It's like still not going to get in your fucking face.
That's part.
Like, you know what I mean?
I just the comments were just people are like, can women just,
just live.
Like, what are we doing?
And I love this one so much.
And she wrote, this was like a top comment on one of the posts.
She said, stop people, specifically women, just go to bed.
We don't need to wrap our heads and tape our mouse and red light zap our faces and sleep on
foam headlocks to curl our hair, literally just go to bed, brush your teeth and slap
some night cream and hit the hay babes.
Like, this is so, this feels egregious to me because now you're telling women they need
to be uncomfortable when they sleep.
Yes.
I said you earlier this morning, like, have we overcorrected what it comes to all of this
Yes. I mean, this is the most in terms of like skincare, hair care, body care.
I've ever seen like the entire medical community say like, not only is this not going to
help, it's counterintuitive to what you want to do.
And I think some people have like 12-step skincare routines and they tape their body.
They put castor oil in their belly button overnight and they sleep with the boob bras so that
you don't get like cleavage marks.
Yeah. I've tried those things and I agree with this person.
I don't want to waterboard myself before I go to sleep.
I don't want to feel physically uncomfortable because I've,
really big breasts, which makes you wrinkle between your breasts, like the skin, and they sell
these, like, boobs separators. And I was sleeping with them, and I was like, what am I doing? I'm so
physically uncomfortable with this. And I've tried a whole bunch of them. There's a lot of
different ones. But I think there's something about a routine in general that makes you feel like
you're doing something good for your body, and that's great. But like, we've all agreed in, like,
the medical community, me being one of them, that like, the things that are important are just like
a moisturizer and some sunscreen and water and hydrating and sleep. But, but, you know,
whatever you want to do is fine. Like you got to find your limit. This is a hard line for me. Even if it did
quote unquote work, I'm not going to be that uncomfortable when I sleep. And people say taping your
mouth, it can be good for your health, but also it makes your jaw more snatch, whether or not
that's true, whatever. It's just like, we have to stop with like the high level like discomfort.
I know. I think. You do you. But this just felt like a money grab. And it's sold out. I mean,
I don't know how many they made. It could have been a.
scarcity marketing in the first place because like let's see how this is going to go.
But it's sold out.
I mean, I understand.
It makes me sad, kind of.
I understand people being like, that's what the Kardashians look like.
If you don't do any more research, it does sound similar to mouth tape.
If you go to sleep like this, it'll hold your face in a certain way.
And people use tape on their eyes.
They can sleep with tape on their eyes all the time.
And I think they're just like, I guess it makes sense.
It's compression.
But like if you don't understand how like blood flow works in the face and the neck and the head,
you're just being preyed on.
Yeah.
So, it makes me feel bummed.
Yeah.
And Anthony Hopkins entered the chat.
Hannibal Lecter.
Raina.
So I was like, does Anthony Hopkins post on social media or did he come out of the woodwork?
He does post.
Okay.
Thank you for.
So he's active on Instagram.
And Anthony Hopkins put this on and did this whole Hannibal Lecter impression.
It was terrifying.
Hello, Kim.
I'm already feeling 10 years younger.
Goodbye.
And Kim reacted.
She was like,
oh my God,
or something.
But do you think this was a stunt?
Like, come on.
How did he hear about this?
Like, this is brilliant.
Like, it's brilliant marketing for Skims.
Honestly, like, do you think he was paid?
Hello, Kim.
I already feel 10 years younger.
I mean, it's so funny.
If Skims paid him,
I'll listen to ads, hats off to them.
Let him cook.
Slow clap.
But, like,
that's the only thing I can think of.
And if they did,
that it's,
brilliant because I just can't imagine that he would have seen this.
Like, do you think his publicist saw that and was like,
Sons to the Lambs?
Anthony put this on,
let's fire it up.
Raina,
because also how did he get one?
Is it the actual one?
I can't tell.
I mean,
his head is definitely wrapped in one,
but also,
like,
he may have just had surgery at some point.
I have these at all.
Now I need to know if that is the actual skims.
Raina,
I swear to God,
like I think this was planned because how else did he get one?
He did this on launch day.
this is their new
He did it on launch day?
I mean.
Well then you know that
you,
five fucking know
that they paid him.
Five days ago
and July 29th.
Okay,
let's see.
But there's no way he,
okay,
July 29th,
two days.
You think he got it
two days shipping.
You think Anthony Hopkins
was like,
I got an idea for a TikTok.
Let me get that
overnight skim's ultimate face.
This is my conspiracy theory.
You think like one of his grandkids
was like this could be funny.
I mean,
who thought of this?
I don't know.
Skims.
Okay.
AI says that there is no information to suggest that Hopkins was paid by skims for this video.
I need to get into their Shopify.
Just no one's marketing is better than skims.
They just always, remember when they had when Bridgeton was like so hot?
And they had, um, yeah, Nicola.
What's your last name?
I don't know.
All right.
Well, you guys know what we're time of.
Yeah.
They just, they're always of the moment.
Hofflin?
Could that be right?
Let me know in the comments.
I don't know.
Okay.
Who's to say?
But yeah, their marketing is second to none.
I'm obsessed with their bras.
I'm wearing their bras right now.
Yeah, obviously.
And I guess good for them.
Get your bag.
If this works for you, great.
People in the medical community do not seem to agree that this will work.
Yeah.
Dr. Barrett did a reel.
He took it easy on him and he was just like, maybe she knows something I don't.
But his whole thing was like they don't need to do these types of money grabs.
Like they're crushing it.
So why?
And so I think that's also why people are angry.
They're like, stop, press.
on women's insecurities. And also it's like, it's the women that would want this are women who
are aging and like there's 20 year old models showing them off. You know what I mean? And I think,
I think that's just people's main issue with the Kardashians in general. It's like, don't act like
this is how you look like this. You know, I think that's why people were upset when Kylie did the
lip kit. It's like, you have so much lip filler. Like, it's fine. The lip kits were great.
But those things, it's like, we know you've had these procedures done. So at least just to be
transparent. It's like them doing like, just do squats. Just do squats. Yeah. So anyway,
let us know what you guys think about Hannibal Lecter as the new skims model and if that was
paid or not. And, you know, if you want to try this and it's going to work for you, who's to
say? If you like it and you feel happy. Yeah. If you like it, we love it. Yeah. For you.
For you. Okay. So you guys love book racks. We're going to give you some book racks.
Shut up. I have a new hot one for you guys. You're not even going to see it coming.
But you had sent me this article in the New York Times,
and the title is,
A Woman in My Book Club never reads the books,
Can I Expose Her?
And she goes on to say that basically,
this woman will read like a chapter or two,
she'll read the last page,
and then she'll go on Reddit and other websites
and just get like hot takes from other people,
and she'll pretend she read it.
And this girl's like, can I tell on her?
And the comments were mixed,
and of course we're going to share our feelings,
but I feel like a lot of the top comments
were maybe people that didn't read the whole article
because the headline just says,
a woman in my book club never reads the books, can I expose her?
You read that.
You're like, okay, asshole.
Like, okay, book police.
You know, and so that was like the top comment says,
I run a book club and always encourage people to come in,
even if they don't read the book, people seek community, yada, yada.
Stop policing.
In my book club, if you don't read the book, you can still come, bring wine.
Maybe she's lonely.
Maybe this is her group.
That's fine.
But that's not what this woman is doing.
I mean, this woman is, it's real weird behavior.
It's very dishonest behavior.
Basically she's saying that she passes off other people's ideas as her own.
She's not saying, like, I read this, I read this opinion piece and do you guys agree with
it?
She's passing these ideas off as if she came up with them.
She's plagiarizing people's takes and then also lying about reading the book.
Like, I 100% understand you don't read the book and you want to show up and A, you tell people
or B, you just shut the fuck up and enjoy the evening.
Hang out with your friends.
Yeah.
So the comment that I loved.
And this was also a top comment.
And people were like, oh, thank God, I was looking for this comment, says, this is hilarious.
Of course you can go to book club without reading the book.
But it seems like the issue is lying about having read it in order to take an authoritative position on it.
Everyone saying she is there for the community missed the point that she's also bullshitting them.
Why not just be honest?
I couldn't get into it.
And from what I read on Goodreads, a lot of people had the same reaction, yada yada, is a perfectly valid contribution and wouldn't involve lying to your friends.
Mike drop.
So deep.
She's like, I've never read any of these books.
Maybe this is her kink.
Every week I can't be it like, honey, can you get into it?
Wait, no, this is her kink.
See, you'll buy her bullshit.
And the article suggests maybe you like find ways to call her out, like, pick a thing
you know was never written about and then ask her of the thing, like try to just blow up her
spot in the middle of book club.
A hundred percent.
That's what to do.
And it's not even about like, let me see if I can out her.
It's like, that's what happens at book club.
If you're going to come in with this take that you pulled from the internet, I'm going to ask
a follow-up question.
Always be asking for it.
And if you somehow can pull it out of your ass, let her cook, I guess.
Okay, can I tell you what I love being?
Because I'm not in any book clubs, but I read a lot.
And I love when we have friends in book clubs that tell me that they haven't read,
and then I give them my opinion to just go take a lot.
I was like, you're going to sound so smart.
You need to find this woman.
Yeah.
She can come to me.
I mean, it's really, it's weird behavior.
It's dishonest behavior.
And it's really bold because I would think I was going to get outed.
Oh, my God.
But you know I got so nervous about lying.
Yeah.
Like it's the same.
We all dealt with this in school.
If you didn't really do the reading the night before, do the homework.
And this is just how she's living every month.
Also, listen, no one's going to kick you out of the book club for not reading as long as you, like, bring wine.
It just would be like, you know, Ashley, she'd never be reading those books.
But she's a value ad.
Yeah.
Who cares?
I mean, I think every book club is different.
And I have, I feel like I grew up my whole life.
My mom was always going to book clubs, multiple book clubs.
I mean, she was a librarian.
Like, that's her whole person.
and I've never technically been in one.
So I want to make that disclaimer up top.
But I think they're all different.
And I think some of them are just like,
let's get together and drink and talk shit.
And I think some are a little more serious.
And like, if this is one where people are really coming together to discuss this thing,
like just don't be in that group then.
Find something else.
It's weird to me.
I just,
I don't know.
I don't want anything predicated on a lot.
That's not fun to me.
I love giving my opinion about stuff.
I want to actually have like digested it.
And if you never read the book, why are you in book club?
I get it.
How often do book clubs meet?
Probably average once a month, one book a month.
Is that about right?
Yeah.
So it's just like, I get it.
Of the 12 months of the year, you read half the books or you read three quarters of the books or you missed one or two here and there.
But if you truly are like never reading the books and instead you're looking on the internet for some hot take to go pass off as your own, you're a fucking weirdo and find something else.
I think it's pervasive.
I think you lie about everything.
This person, yes.
I don't think this is isolated.
How you do one thing is how you do everything.
Yes, I think that she probably drops a lot of opinions.
There was a line in girls and she says,
I know very little about anything and yet I have an opinion about everything.
And that's this girl.
She's just like, she's just pulling up opinions off the internet.
Yeah, so that's exactly how I feel is like that comment.
Like, of course you can go to a book club if you didn't read the book every time, like whatever.
Just let people know.
But stop fucking being a weird liar.
It's like when I go to trivia, I know I'm never going to get any of those answers.
I know everybody around me.
is going to have to get the trivia.
And I've just got to hear it one time.
And I think it was about the name of an ocean and the name of a sea in Israel.
Yes.
You did.
What was it?
The dead sea.
It was that one.
It's really salty.
Otherwise, it is, you can float.
Like your body, I mean, it floats because of salt.
You can float in any sea, obviously.
But, yeah, I don't be participating.
But I don't pretend I'm about to crush it at this trivia night.
I go in, I order the drinks, I eat the pizza, I tell jokes.
of the value you had.
So that's our take.
We just found it really fascinating.
I mean, these were really polarizing
from what you could see in the comments.
And I just think, again, yet again,
it's so funny that people would comment on it
that didn't read the article
when the whole thing is about not reading.
Well, I love when people say stuff that we said,
and I'm like, that's not,
we said it's out of context.
I've really not been on my book game as much this year.
I'm like way down.
But I didn't, listen, I just said I was going to draw my shit
and I'm doing that.
You just read some.
You probably still read more than me.
But I just finished the Housemate.
by Frieda McFadden.
I guess this is like a popular book.
No, I'm kidding.
I remember you talking about The Housemade
because it's going to be a movie or show?
It's going to be a movie starring Sidney Sweeney,
The Woman of the Hour,
and Amanda Seafreed and Brandon.
How do I say?
Sclinar.
Sclanar.
And then do you know when it's coming out?
I do not.
I'm not aware.
But you were like, I'm going to recommend the Housemaid.
I was totally like kidding.
And Rainer reminded me that the reason we started doing Rex in the first place was because I would recommend all these old movies.
So,
Freedom McFadden, who wrote The Housemaid, is the number three and maybe number four right now, bestselling author in the country.
So she's just behind Sarah J. Mass, who wrote Akitar series and Colleen Hoover.
So she's number three, maybe number four.
But, yeah, the biggest writer of all time.
So the Housemaid is deranged.
It's sick.
you're reading this like this
fucked up person.
I wrote this.
Yeah, but I couldn't put it down.
The writing is,
you know, I never,
it just doesn't resonate with me.
I don't know,
it's all from one person's point of view.
So it's like her inner monologue,
the whole, well, then it switches.
I'm not going to give it away.
If you guys ever read it,
this brand new book.
It wasn't like my favorite.
It was not the most intellectual writing,
but the story is so wild
and I couldn't put it down
and I'm excited to read this
as our trilogy, the second one.
Yeah, so this is very relevant
because actually the last two,
books I actually read were the follow-up to this. There are three in the Housemaid series. I've only
read the second one. And the Tenant, which is another book that she wrote. I liked all of them. I liked
the tenant a lot. But you'll never get the thrill of the first one because then you know kind of what's
happening. I'm sure there's crazy twist and turns. But like once you realize like what the fuck is going
on. She is like the master of the twist. But like you know that there's going to be one. Well, I didn't.
I mean, I know.
You just actually just be cleaning?
No, like I didn't, Raina, I didn't, I went into a kind of blind, which I loved.
Okay.
Yeah, I knew there was going to be some stuff happening between her.
Yeah, what I remember?
Spoiler alert.
Like, I knew there was going to be some stuff happening between her and the husband.
But, like, I couldn't have anticipated.
And I was just reading it.
Like, this lady is insane.
The author.
But I really loved it.
So that's a, that's, I like the second one.
I brought it for you.
It's in my bag.
And I, it's hard to like anything as much as the first.
one, but it is really good. And then I just picked up Ellen Hilderbrand, Barefoot, also not a hot take,
but I don't know. I was in my bookstore in Roboth Beach, browse about books. Shout out, my favorite
bookstore. And just really reading the backs of a bunch of her books to see what would appeal to me.
And it's like, I feel like I started with the best one, which is the five-star weekend, which is the one
you gave me. And like, that's the favorite. But all the ones I read, I'm like, man, that plot, I started
a little too strong. So this sounds good. Barefoot sounds good. People don't say that that's her best book.
On Amazon, there was like three others that were like more popular than that, but that was my favorite one.
And I really haven't read a lot.
I think I told you guys this, but we were liars, which you all say traumatized you.
I warned you.
I read family of liars, which is the fall up to that.
And I thought it was fantastic.
But I'm not really on my reading game as much.
Yeah.
All right.
Well, we already did a whole book episode.
So you guys can listen back.
We have tons of books for you guys.
If you're still in your reading era, we're just going to talk about a couple partners.
And then we will get back into it with our headlines.
All right.
So if you guys have a side hustle, if you have a business, you're looking to get off of the ground.
If you want to leave your current job and do something else, build your own business. Shopify is literally the place to do it.
You can easily set up an online store and start selling your products in no time.
So become an entrepreneur, manage your business all in one place.
Ashley and I have been using Shopify truly since day one.
We use it for Girls Got to Eat merch.
We use it for the entire vibes only line of products.
And it is truly so easy to use and it makes our business run so smoothly.
the analytics are fantastic. We always know what our inventory levels look like and what the data
looks like and even what time of day your sales spike so you can time everything out really well.
I love all the reports. They have an AI assistant that can walk you through all of the features
and functions if you've never done this before. So it'll teach you directions, reporting,
how to edit images and content ideas. They will help build your website. There are so many templates.
They look so beautiful and professional. And I think that this is the thing that like stops people from
going to the next level with their business. And this,
commerce platform has not only made it easy for everybody to start and run their business,
but it has made it possible to scale them and keep growing it. So I really, really recommend it.
Ashley and I have used it for years. If you're ready to build your own empire, whether it's
merch, products, or the next best idea, go to Shopify.com slash GGE and make it happen.

I know. I've been hearing about it and seeing it everywhere.
I just saw that Gwyneth was talking about Addy. I heard some celebrities like Jenny Garcy
Addie has helped them. I honestly love knowing that low libido is becoming less faux pa to discuss and
women can talk about what's really helping them. And for many of them, that is Addie. So a quick
reminder for our listeners that Addie is the little pink pill clinically proven to boost
frustrating low libido in certain premenopausal women. In fact, clinical trials reported women
having more satisfying sex each month. Okay, girl. Addy vibe is a sexy vibe. So sexy.

The woman, I can't even escape. Sidney, people found out she's registered Republican now.
Yeah. She had a MAGA birthday party for her mom. Obviously, she's a Republican.
Good. She had a make 60 great again birthday party for her mom, people with MAGA hats on.
And Blue Lives Matter shirts. She did come out and say like that wasn't that you guys are assuming. And lo and behold, she's a Republican. So thank you for the gaslighting.
Yeah. Obviously, she's been in the news so much for this jeans ad. And I don't know. I'm not going to give too much weight to it.
Yeah. I mean, I was like, do we talk about this or not? It was last week's major headline and we missed it by the time we recorded. And we were like,
I don't know.
Like, I don't know.
I'm just kind of tired of talking about her.
But I like, you know, I feel like I'll just get my little one sentence spoiler plate on the ad
because people are still talking about this.
Donald Trump's talking about it.
Well, they told him in an interview.
He also, like sort of didn't know she was.
And he was like, she's a registered Republican.
Then I love the ad.
And then he just ranted and he said Taylor Swift.
I mean, it's just like it's like your literal like demented grandpa.
Yes, the senile grandpa.
He's like running the country.
It's like his post are like sick.
I like don't even, you know, we'll make fun and stuff and bring humor and light to it.
But when you really think about that's the person running the country, it's just like horrifying.
That's the person that all these people are terrified of.
It's probably because they're like he's such a kamikaze pilot.
We don't, he won't even remember what he did.
Yeah.
The ads, I thought were so cringe.
Like I thought like her voice, her like sexy baby voice, this eerily similar vibe to Brooke Shields,
Calvin Klein ads when she was, what, 14 years old or something that just felt kind of like creepy.
Obviously, Sidney's an adult.
To me, I think it was tone deaf.
It felt like no person of color could have worked on this.
But was it Nazi propaganda?
I feel like that's a reach.
And I think those extreme statements don't help the left.
But I'm not an expert on Nazi propaganda.
And I'm sure there are some convincing arguments that that's the camp it falls into.
Whatever sound of the internet you're on, you can find somebody to support your hypothesis.
I think that that's a reach.
I think she's an actress that was hired to be in a commercial and it was a bad move.
I think that no one in the room was like, hey, maybe this is bad or we're talking about
this.
Maybe somebody in the room was like, this is going to take over the internet.
And their stock is up.
Way up.
Yeah, I don't love it.
I don't love that like in this climate, it's just like this, you know, blonde hair,
blue-eyed white woman is like, I have great jeans.
What I would have liked to see is an ad with a person of color.
The same ad also great jeans.
You know, like that would have felt better.
A whole campaign of different people.
A whole campaign of different types of people.
Like, that's a beautiful campaign that all types of people who look all different types of
way all have great jeans.
Wow.
I love this idea.
Let's do it for our company.
I have great dildos.
So, again, like, I'm not making any like hard statements.
Like, again, these are my immediate thoughts.
It was like, yeah, I don't love this.
It's tone deaf.
Our friend compared it to the Kendall Jenner Pepsi ad from years ago.
And people want to say it's eugenics and Nazi propaganda.
And I'm sure they have some proof to back up that it.
that history would show that it feels like ads from those times.
It felt like something also not that important to focus on for me with everything else
going on in the world in this country and otherwise.
I mean, I think our time and our energy can be better spent.
Yeah, it felt like a real distraction.
But I was thinking, like, can you imagine like if Sidney's a Republican, if she's MAGA,
whatever, you know, who I don't know for sure if she's this like Donald Trump supporter.
But like, can you imagine him like liking something you've done?
The humiliation of that.
I think we're outside of that.
It would never be us, but like I cringed, think of him saying something like, yeah, like he can be the fan of me or us, you know, like I want to be like the Taylor Swift of it all.
Yeah, same.
And have him as a hater.
Taylor forever.
Okay.
Martha Stewart launches a skincare line the week of her birthday.
You love this.
I love her so much.
I mean, there's just, no one.
looks better for their age.
I want to do what Martha's doing.
So she teased it a bunch.
Martha Stewart had nine birthday posts between her two accounts and some were collabs.
Like sports illustrated swimsuit.
Like they were not all her wishing herself happy birthday, but between Martha Stewart at Martha
Stewart, which is her like official account and it's not in her voice.
It's like third person.
Martha's great.
Martha's this.
Martha's that.
Martha's an icon.
Obviously we agree.
Martha did that.
Martha did that.
and then Martha Stewart 48, which is from her voice.
It's like a personal account.
Between the two, I counted nine birthday posts.
It was my whole feed the whole day.
And the captions were so funny.
Like, what's your favorite?
Your annual reminder that Martha did that.
It's her on the cover of Sports Illustrated.
Snoop posted about her.
Then she posts 10 tips for aging healthy.
Okay.
And then her accounts as we reflect.
So I actually forgot that she used the two accounts.
And I'm reading this and it says,
as we reflect on the lessons Martha has taught us.
I was like, is this much writing about herself?
I know.
It is her professional account.
Yeah.
So, and it is called Elm Biosciences.
It says that Martha, who again is 84, reveal that she and it sounds like her dermatologist,
a board certified dermatologist teamed up for the creation of their joint skin care line,
Elm biosciences, which seeks to address aging skin from a clinical perspective.
So we love that.
I'm going to get that.
I really need whatever 80-year-olds are using.
that's how I feel some days with the skin.
I mean, I think we all need whatever Martha Stewart is using.
100%, which is probably chemical peels and PRP and CO2 lasers and everything else.
Yeah, so...
Forget the skincare line.
We love her.
Our icon, nine birthday posts.
Try to get on her level, you guys.
Okay.
And lastly, there is no song of the summer.
You said that to me this morning and like I was the head exploding emoji.
There really isn't one.
There is one.
Nothing beats a Jet 2 holiday.
And right now, you can save 50 pounds.
Nothing beats a Jet 2 holiday.
That's the song of the summer.
That's my favorite thing in the world.
Is this the most used trend sound?
Besides I'm a mommy.
More, Raina, this has been weeks.
I'm a mommy had like one week.
Like Jet 2 holiday, it's weeks now.
I still think Mommy number one.
Let us know what you guys think.
Mommy number one for me.
But also, you know you get in those cycles.
No, see, I think that JETU holiday has spanned so many different demographics.
So, listen, you're going to make fun of me because I actually don't know.
But you know that video that's like really going viral, the guy proposing his girlfriend on vacation in Greece,
and then the woman walks in front of the camera and just stands there.
And they overlay the Jetsu Holiday on that.
Yeah, they're the funniest videos.
So last night, so my fiancé probably was one of the first people to even show it to me.
He's on top of everything.
Well, he's the most on the internet.
But it's still now weeks later, and he still loves watching these.
This is his favorite thing because he's,
loves watching people like fuck up and stuff. So last night, we're in bed. And he had, we had been
scrolling earlier and I've been hearing the sound. And I was like, I cannot hear that song one of the
fucking time, the song of the summer. And it was just played out to me. So he's in bed. I was
getting ready to get into bed. And he starts scrolling again. I'm like, babe, I cannot hear Jetsu
Holiday one more time. And he's like, fine, I'm going to bed. He like does this whole like tantrum.
He pulls the covers up over his head. And then from under the covers I hear,
Nothing beats a jet two holiday.
Right now, I laughed so hard.
Under the covers, he got yelled out by his mom.
I was like doubled over laughing.
He has been being so funny in the house.
It really is.
But I also saw this meme that I loved that said,
we didn't get a song of the summer because we were bad.
And that is also true.
2025 does not deserve one.
I thought that Machine Gun Kelly,
I thought that cliche was going to be the song in the summer.
I did say that.
I was like, that will be the song.
And it just kind of like quietly went away.
Wait, you're so right.
You said that and I kind of thought you would have been right.
I thought, surely.
But yes, all these other musicians that have done songs of the summer decided we didn't deserve it.
I mean, the songs on today's top hits on Spotify feel old, like ordinary by Alex Warren.
So played out.
I don't even remember that anymore.
They did a video for it of the Love is Blind finale.
That was like years ago at this point, it felt like.
Although it's not like fun to bop to.
It's not a, it's not.
It's not a summer banger.
I mean, no, we didn't get one.
I mean, Manchild by Sabrina Carpenter, but, like, there is no song that's, like, just
played everywhere, and it's, like, there's no, like, espresso.
I feel like this in general.
Okay, remember there was just so many weeks of the snack in the row that all we did was
talk about Chaparone and Sabrina Carpenter and Taylor Swift, and I feel like music
took the summer off or something?
Totally.
You're right.
Last summer, it was just, like, that's all we were.
we're talking about was these pop stars.
Besides Beyonce, music took the summer off.
But her tour's over.
No song in the summer from her.
No, Taylor was just fighting to get her music back.
We really don't have one.
We don't.
For summer.
No song.
Darling take my hand.
Nothing beats a jet too.
That really is.
I like, how you harmonize.
That's how it starts.
Darling on my hand.
Jess Glynn, hold my hand.
All right, guys.
No song in the summer.
We were bad.
That's your snack.
