She was like the star. She had been on the Jeff Foxworthy show. She's like the daughter on that show. And her name is Catherine Zaremba. And she was like all I ever wanted to be. And come to find out she's not only a star, she makes beautiful, fun wallpapers. Oh, great. Okay. It's called Catherine Zaremba. I literally, isn't that the one that I hate

and a Chanel bag, one pair of pajamas, a legging to wear on the plane. And then like one outfit to wear in New York city. So I had no clothes with me. So I, I, I got to Edmonton and then I was there for a long time and I just had one pair of nice pajamas with me and they, I'm kind of something you may not know about me is I'm a little bit of a pajama snob snob. Yes. I like a cozy earth eberge like i'm it needs to be the slinkiest softest cotton i can't sleep with anything around my ankles like i can't sleep in a sweat pant and a sweatshirt like sleep in a pant in a pajama pant that is a proper methodical fabric sure so i had just one pair of pajamas but i had nothing extra with me and i'm sleeping on the couch in my brother's basement which is

wide open to him and he um walked in on me changing once it was and then he started yelling anyway so so many things happened my eyes he was like he was like is it safe to come down i was like oh my god so anyway so i'm i'm in the shower and i have my pajamas and they're ready to go and you know i'm a tornado so i'm just flinging around the bathroom's pretty small i'm flinging around a lot of shmegma in that so much shmegma and like also i'm using like you know i had to go up to shoppers drug mart and i got like all the supplies of like the products but i don't have my stuff i don't have my vitamin c saint jane beauty oil i've just got like the like clear cell and like a you know like whatever and it's fine but it's not my stuff so anyway i'm tornadoing around

the bathroom and i ended up hitting my pajamas into the toilet oh no into a man toilet ew a man toilet is like i love you brother but like a man toilet so then what am i going to sleep in because now i have to put it in the wash and then the dryer and then also we in canada mostly dry our clothes in the air like people don't use a dryer the way that we like lazy ass la people like i need this dry instantly how are they doing that in the winter well a lot of people have laundry rooms and then you have like a laundry hanging thing in your laundry room and so it just dries out in the air so my brother's dryer is not the best dryer so you really had to put it through like three times so anyway I didn't have anything to sleep in it was awful pajama toilet what did

you sleep in I think I made it I think I put on a hoodie and a sweat I had a sweat pant my friend in New York gave me a sweat pant and then like I took it off and went under the covers naked but I did not sleep well because I'm first of all on a curved couch so that's not like you can't sleep like a croissant for like 10 nights straight and then you know it's just just so many things bleak that is bleak bleak okay here's the good news um i've been shopping a lot on amazon fashion and oh for my summer are you gonna keep that that orange and pink dress no i sent it back already you love it i wanted to buy it but they didn't have it on prime i just need to say right now we are too sexy mature to wear that dress i know i was only wearing it to a bright party yeah it

wasn't gonna wear it for real i was gonna wear it when i went out nice i think that's okay it's not okay no it's so it's so cheaply made you could see the lips of your vagina okay fine it looks way better it's so bad from far away yes yes okay fine okay so anyway i've been buying a lot of dress is trash the dress is trash the dick is trash okay so i have been ordering like a lot of different things off amazon because i'm doing summer and i really don't want to invest in expensive summer clothes because i know by next summer y2k is going to be over and we're going to be in goth emo and we're only wearing black in the summer, whatever it is. So I'm like, I just want a couple of fun pieces that I can wear as bathing suit coverups. I have a bunch of weddings

to go to. So I was really excited to buy this like kind of crocheted dress and I got it and I'm returning it. And as I'm returning it, I'm like looking on the form and printing it out. And then I'm looking at the description and I didn't even read this before I bought it, but here's the description. It made me almost not want to return it. Sweater dress, wear a rainbow stripe mini knit dress to make you look younger without losing your mature grace oh my god that's literally what oh on amazon sweater dress wear a rainbow stripe mini dress to make you look younger without losing your mature grace can i see a photo of this dress that's not sexy mature i don't know what it i was like it's almost like it's meant to be what grace your mature grace i know wow mature grace yeah

that's not sexy mature i guess it's like mature grace yeah i just i also want to second that i have spent so much money and and then gotten my money back because i have attempted to buy nothing short of 45 sundresses that i just want to be easy breezy throw it on it doesn't exist or if it does it's 600 and it pisses me off i need a company to make a chic beautiful that's hideous you should have known when you bought that it was a bathing i have a beautiful worse than the other dress i have a beautiful purple button-up or purple bathing suit it's just a cover-up for the beach that is not that needs to be covered up we see it again that cover-up needs a cover-up. So it's not going to make me look younger and keep

my mature grace? Second thought, I don't hate it that much. Okay, anyway. Who's next? I'll go, I guess. My good week is I am famous. I have made it onto the Daily Mail. Oh my God.

Your girl is famous. The amount of people that sent me an article of myself on the Daily Mail because I drank a chia seed drink to make me poop is unbelievable. Off the charts. Claim to fame and they called me a producer tv producer and writer they didn't mention the podcast at all or my business tv producer which i guess is kind you're an executive producer one second yeah

stays forever that matters they made me seem way cooler than i am that's everyone ever in anything hollywood oh yeah like you're welcome they'd be like emo has been jack vanek I'm desperate for press and you're just drinking chia seed and people are just like, let me write up. And it wasn't just so often as we do, you're doing something and then you get put into an article. Like we were doing a podcast during the pandemic article in the Hollywood Reporter and we were a photo, one of eight people they interviewed.

They literally screenshot the entire minute long video and you had multiple mentions. The whole story was just Jack Manick. they didn't even ask me do the daily mail not ask you if they can do articles on you your instagram is public property so like any photo you post on instagram anyone can use it anywhere well not instagram tiktok's the same probably social media yeah i don't know let's sue them who cares so a couple questions i'm like here i did not sign off for this i mean i love the press did it work can we go back and get a link to the new book i heard they get stuck in your colon well this is what happened is um it worked like i pooped afterwards but i also drank a triple

espresso right before so you are not a good scientist and by working i mean i had like a dribble like it wasn't like a like a satisfying poop that we know and love it was like i'm like this kind of happened and then yeah i heard everybody was commenting that they can get stuck in your colon and cause a rupture or something. I'm almost positive. I was eating a lot of chia seed pudding when my appendix burst. I feel like that those are connected. Okay. What is connected with a colon? I mean, appendix connected. Well, it is all connected, but I don't think appendix is like a little zit. It's like a little, it's when something gets stuck in there. That's what appendicitis is. And it gets rotten. It is. I swear to God appendicitis

literally just happens out of nowhere no something gets stuck in there and then it inflames that's what happened with me anyways i hate the people that are screaming at us right now that do actually that are doctors and i don't want to pick up my phone and look it up i don't want to get lost in this conversation but sorry it's devil's advocate that's not a devil's advocate that's me saying i'm not gonna do it no and that's why the audience likes me because i would have normally picked up my phone and been like no girls it's this you're wrong you're stupid you're wrong because I do it for the people, you know, fact checking. So what's your bad week? Okay. So my bad week is also my life on Tik TOK is just going all over the place. Pop it off. My, my bad week is I posted

this Tik TOK. It was a trend. I put an emo spin on it. As you do, you're supposed to niche down, you know, that's like the thing. Niche down girl. I started getting all of these comments from people telling me that I'm so quirky. So I was like, I don't know what this is. And apparently it is an insult from gen z to old people it's basically like you're acting like a pick me girl and you're like what's up different me girl it's like i'm different than the other girl i'm not like other girls so no but it was not on a video that i was like doing anything like that it was literally just like a trend but now i had like an influx of dozens and dozens of people calling me quirky and I am upset. People on TikTok are mean. They're mean. I won't read my comments

because they're so mean. And also they cannot, they cannot understand sarcasm. No. They take things very literally and then they correct you. It's, it's like the most annoying people live on the comment section of TikTok. Well, and they're strangers, so they don't even like know. They don't know who you are or what you do yeah i would say that i get the most and caitlin i think you're very talented and lovely person i get the most caitlin jenner comments on tiktok i get at least two a video well god i hate i hate being debbie downer oh but i had a really shitty experience in austin at a spa and wellness place like a medispa or like a golden door yeah like a take care of yourself self-care saunas whatever yes yeah so i've been attempting to go to this

place down the street from my house like for a year and they've had some major scheduling issues like where i'd make an appointment i would take the girl hours to find something available i'd make the appointment. And then they'd called me back 30 minutes later while I was onto my next life's task. And they'd be like, sorry, we actually, that's not available. She doesn't work that day. And I'd be like, I lost a year off my life for you trying to meet. So long story short, it's been a year of that. And I finally was like, you know what? I'm going to go, I'm going to get the works. I'm going to do like a 90 minute massage followed by a sauna. And I had gotten the name of this girl who does great massages from my friend. So I call the place

And I'm like, Hey, I want to get a massage with, let's call her Karen. I want to get a massage. No one wants a massage from Karen. I want a massage from Molly. Okay. I want Molly. And then I'm going to do it in Frisana. And we went through the whole thing so that I scheduled her to get my girl, Molly.

I show up. Molly's not there. Oh, I bet Molly's not there. They don't say a word. They're like, okay, one minute. Whatever. Bring you back. You don't even know Molly's not there.

You don't even know it's not Molly. You don't need to finish her story. Sorry. guess who greets me at the door to walk me back for my massage it wasn't molly jennifer it was a man no no a man and a man and i'm and i'm like a man not a woman not listen i would have been upset if it wasn't molly and it was a woman right a man right and i thank god i had just had a very stressful conversation about work stuff in the lobby of this place. And I was kind of still really came out to get me. And I was still reeling in that. And I was trying, and then I'm, he's like,

how are you doing today? And I'm like looking at him and like looking at his facial hair. And I'm like, what the, and I was like, I am so sorry. I am dealing with like a little bit of a work crisis, not a lie but the perfect out and I was like I am gonna have to reschedule this I am totally gonna pay like I was like blabbering on and I'm like I'm gonna pay like I just I can't go 90 minutes without like dealing with something and I was like I'm gonna I'm good like go bye and like he goes off and he's like looking weird because you know that he knows he knows it was him and I went to the front desk and I said to the girl I was like I'm sorry I need I need to leave I need to leave. And in my head, I never know what to say in the moment. I should have said I booked

for Molly. Yeah. That isn't Molly. Right. But I didn't. Instead I was like, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. Apologizing. Yeah. And then I proceeded to get so upset throughout the day. I don't, I don't know why. No, I do know why I had a sketchy experience with a masseuse. That was a man in my twenties. It was not scary for me. It wasn't, it was just icky. So from that day forward, I was like, I'm not going to have an experience where I'm alone in a room with a man with my clothes off and he's touching me with hot oil to each his own. Yeah. That's your trauma you're allowed to have. Yep. So I was so angry at this place. How dare you ever, unless you specify or ask a woman if she is okay with a man touching her in a room in private. Yeah. How dare you

surprise her like that? I am so pissed. Like I'm reeling. I'm almost crying as I'm thinking about it because I'm like, if I hadn't had that work thing happen, I would have been too afraid to say no, hurt his feelings. Right. And I would have gone back in that room. So like, thank you universe for the work crisis, even though that was also a pain in my ass, but it wasn't being stuck in a room for 90 minutes. So then it gets worse. I was like, you know what? I'm going to send a DM because I think this is really important if they are too stupid to understand how like terrible that is to surprise a woman like that. I sent a DM and I was like, I was like, I don't want anything from you. I truly don't want, cause really truthfully, I'm never going back. Cause I

felt embarrassed from leaving. I never want to go back. I never, I will never go back. And I'm like, I just thought, you know, as a business owner and as a woman, like just so that there's never a situation where there's another woman put in that position. And guess what scene I can see that they read it. Nothing. It's been three days. What? I mean, it's not like they even just looked at their DMS. They like accepted it to move into the actual DMS and then never responded to you. I mean, I'm not giving them the benefit of the doubt, but devil's advocate, did they screenshot it and send it to the appropriate manager? Who's now going to reach out to you?

Then maybe they should have said, we are so sorry. If something happens, you have to immediately address it. If somebody is coming to you. Yep. And I'm just like, if you work in a, in a facility that there are people in rooms that are private, you better not put a woman in a room with a man. unannounced unless you say to her four times in a row when she books it when you confirm it and when she gets there when you get there and we have you down for a 90 minute with matt with a male

and you're okay with a male masseuse blink twice if you understand like right what the yeah that is that's not okay you will and you don't need this added stress no i was actually spiraling it was like i i also booked this weeks in advance when i knew that i have the time and i could i have been trying to go to this place and i it's taking everything in me not to say the name of this place it is taking everything in me but if you work in that industry just hear me out yep uh yes valid one i mean yes and honestly i don't like getting a massage there's one man that i like but i don't like a male massage one time i paid i feel your pain because i paid all this money to go the bamf fairmont springs resort it's like a very fancy

hotel fans and I was really excited Chris and I went there when we were first dating to get a massage there and I definitely didn't have the money for like the overpricedness that is like the BAMF spot yeah it was a treat guy for 60 minutes was massaging me barely telling me about all the celebrities that have come I've massaged Shania Twain I've massaged Celine Dion and I was like this is just like you don't know what I do but obviously this is not something you're supposed to say out loud and then like why are you talking at me why are you talking at me especially that should also be a pre-approval as if you're masseuse it's like an uber don't talk to me talk to me at first how's the pressure and when i say it's fine be like are you sure because i feel

like you're just being nice right now and i want you to press harder yeah like i'm just so mad at myself like i why is it so hard to just speak up because we're trained not to that's a societal thing through generations. And I didn't want him to be uncomfortable because it wasn't his fault. No, it wasn't. It's the fucking dumb person. Sorry. I wonder if that, like, yeah. The thing is, is that here, there's two opposite ends of the spectrum. One is that we're taught not to speak up. And so we don't, and then we're almost rewarded for being meek and pleasable, you know? And then the other side is, is that you get people that are, have now been empowered to speak up, that they speak up about everything and it's it loses it's like there has to be a middle ground

where like you know what there's a lot of shit that you just let fly yeah you know just water off the duck's back to go and then just wouldn't leave me right and then there's a couple things that when you feel like wow this actually really that you can speak up in a non you don't have to harass them you don't have to come at them with like you're an idiot even though that's how you feel like a like you did in the dm but also it's like you're in the heat of the moment you're really upset you don't have to speak up in that very moment either like you are you you have every right to like talk about it when it's appropriate to you but then the non-response but the scene is pretty that's dark that's something i would do and also and you're kind of talking about something

serious it's serious because i did mention i had an uncomfortable experience with a male masseuse not that I even need to qualify it. I'm just sharing with you that like, I'm pissed and that I can't let this go. And, and the other part about it too, is like what you're saying, we're trained and we're rewarded for not like, I had to, I had to be like, I never do this. Like I, I, why do I have to say that? Who cares if I do it? What happened is fucked up. If I complain at every business I go to and the, what the, what they did is as fucked up as this, then I'm allowed to complain. Yeah. A lot of things are happening. I'm sorry, Jared. I'm so fired up, but that's the other part of it too. Also by you seeing it and ignoring it makes me feel like, Oh, I'm crazy.

They're gaslighting you. They're gaslighting. I hate them. And it's taking everything in me, not to mention this place. Okay. If you have a beautiful spa in Austin that would like to host Becca Tobin for a 90 minute female led massage. I will be paying for it. You just reach out to me. This girl needs her back rubbed by a woman, by a woman, a nice central touch from a female hands only. The female touch, the female touch. When, wait, do you have, no, I'm not going to give you a good week. I'm too fired up. When we come back, it's time for the good week. Cause I got a Kindle and I love it. I love a Kindle. I love a Kindle. I read a million times more. Yes. Cause I was always the person that was like i love a real book i love her which i do i love going in the

ritual of going and buying the book yeah but it's there's no point in going to buy the book if you're not going to read the book ah yes yes um did you get the fire yeah the new one right fire yeah i love my fire mine's right there i'm just gonna waiting i'm reading uh pay hardbacks right now but when i go on my trip i'm gonna be reading on the kindle it's interesting that you keep your kindle on a bookshelf with books yeah well because i don't want to lose it i don't want to lose it but it's not on my side table because it's just one book only, you know, when we come back, it's time for something iconic.

Okay, welcome back. It is officially July, which means what? End of year. It's the end of the year. End of the year wrap up. End of the year wrap up here with the Lady Gang. yep you're six and a half months into your year so whatever you manifested put on that list that you've already your time is up yeah given up on it's time to get back on the treadmill well you

know what's really up about this and i don't know if you guys feel the same but since covid began i feel like time is moving so fast yeah like i can't even like catch a grip before it's like 2020 yeah since like the lockdown i feel like time is moving in a different speed oh no i feel like it's so well parts of it are lasting forever well do you not look at 2020 and think it was the longest year of your life 2020 yes but like this year i feel like i can't believe it's july yeah this year like speeding i feel like i just turned 40 and it was six months ago do we think that it's doing this because we're back to life again like we're not we were used to it being so slowed down yeah or is this all what do they call it well we're just in like a what's it called you know like

elon musk would say like it's all simulation i'm in a simulation i've been very on the simulation train i was just listening to a podcast about it on the way over yeah multiverse like that whole thing um i don't know maybe we're in a maybe something happened what's that matthew mcconaughey movie about the matrix no and it's about time continuum and how he's an old he's a young man while she's an older woman isn't that a movie with sandra bullock and there's like a mailbox blake lively where she never ages no okay well these all do exist but this is come on it's the movie that everybody talks about when you talk about like i don't know the title do we talk about it anyways everyone's yelling at us now

again but what's the movie with sandra bullock where she's like communicating through a mailbox oh that's a good romantic comic the lake house or something yeah is that a spooky movie i like that you haven't seen that or that you've seen that, but you haven't seen sleeping with the enemy. I just knew that's the premise of it. So we are in a simulation, but I am going to say something controversial. Oh God. Okay. I don't know where my notes are. So good. Keep talking. This has nothing to do with the year end wrap up or does it? Okay. Okay. I want it with none of the negative things, none of the illness, none of the, none of the bad stuff. I would love to be told that we have to go back into lockdown. Oh my God. I would love it so much. No, that's like my actual

fucking nightmare. Really? Yes. Of course. Yeah. For Jack, it's definitely not good. Um, do I want to go into, I mean, I live my life in lockdown a little bit cause I don't go out. You're a chosen lockdown. Yeah. I don't go out. It's like, I'm not really doing, no, I think I'm, I'm good the way I I can lock down when I want to, and I can go out when I need to. Yeah, but, like, nothing is in our control of when we lock it down or when we don't. We're at the mercy of, like, the rest of the... Yeah, that's how I like it. No, I like to be in control of my lockdown.

Oh, but I'm saying, how are you in control? Like, when I wanted to go to work and I didn't want the audience to have to wear masks on my TV show, I was happy. Then I stayed at home for two weeks. It's you're living in your extremes, is what it is. I'm living in, yeah. Oh, I'm just saying if I could dictate when I'm going to be living out, but it's instead, it's like, nope, you got to go to LA for 24 hours. And you're like, God, if it was just locked down, it would have been a lot easier.

I guess if you had Ford a little bit earlier or really, it would have been terrible. Maybe because then there's going to get out, but tonight I'm going to rub your feet and give you a nice warm bath. You're going to, you're going to rub it back as feet with your hands. I'll put you that. I'll put your feet on my feet. I have a foot massager. Oh, I want the foot massager.

And I can give you a really nice bath you can take on yourself and just, like, live your life a little bit. It's not going to be a massage. That would be an insane move to massage your friend's feet. I couldn't. I can't. It does feel, like, very sexual all of a sudden. Foot massages are sexual unless they're done by, like, a professional. Yeah.

Yeah. Okay. They're not done by friends. All right. So it's the Lady Gang half-year episode. and this is where I'm going to let everyone know what we manifested for this year and see where we're at so far. I do want to make sure everyone remembers that the manifest episode this year came out on December 28th and it also happens to be the iconic popcorn fart episode. Oh my God.

I still, for a million dollars, couldn't tell you what that was. I don't remember. I remember like discussing, I went back and I was listening to the episode and like the full, full good week, bad week is just me not being able to speak because i thought the funniest thing i've ever heard in my life was the saying it's drier than a popcorn fart oh yeah and i still think it's hilarious i still don't understand and it was me and becca just being so confused you guys could not catch her breath she couldn't breathe tears rolling down her face yes so anyway if you want to go back and listen december 28th episode drier than a popcorn fart it's an excellent saying for when something is dry like it's dry okay so like what's dry like give an example like vagina

like it's like i'm in arizona it's drier than a popcorn fart out here it's dry it's a polarizing topic yeah i don't know why we okay so we're gonna start with back we're gonna start with jack okay jack your goals do you remember what they were no okay number one you wanted to take next steps to really expand lady gang i did yes in what way i have no idea i actually laughed out loud when i heard that i said oh wow so interesting but you also that roll the tape roll the tape roll the tape okay also how could i expand lady gang like you were feeling like really you were like i really want to make stuff like i want to take this brand to the next level this might have also been when i thought i was going to start

selling nfts like that was around the same time yes i would okay your next thing though you said you said i really want to get back into being passionate about the jack vanek brand and releasing stuff she did i did think that this could be a check mark that was a check mark um i'm also fingers crossed hopefully gonna maybe have a jack vanek tent at when we're young fest maybe maybe maybe when we were young fest and what how do we need to call huge emo fast who do we need to call um the spa you're not gonna get an answer they're gonna send a mail message Do you want us to send our publicists there? Yeah, where?

Ooh, maybe. And they could be like, yo, you should really do this. We're going to do a whole follow along in Rolling Stone or something. For my big Rolling Stone article. It's in Vegas in October for two weekends. It's like massive, massive, massive. Are you going to work at the tent? You're going to be able to.

Well, they're very elusive. We can't really figure out where to contact them. You know what? Oh, isn't that main playing? Yes. So they don't have a contact? Pretty late. No.

I know. I feel like they actually threw this together in a really strange way. It's not, it's just very, the whole thing is elusive. Like I, it's not normal, but anyways. Are there going to be tents in vendors? Maybe that's why you're not sure. There will. I'm working on it, but yes. I don't think you should work the tent. I'm not working the tent. No. I'll make it show up and do like a little zhuzh. I'm going to be fucked up. Okay. The next thing you said on your list, should I go one at a time? Okay. So Becca,

you asked if you could shoot a show in Atlanta or Austin well we have our answer I I did feel kind of bad writing this down but then I also was like have you auditioned for things that are happening in Austin Atlanta there was one instance where I did audition for something in Austin within the last couple of months but the feedback was that one of the actors who was already on the show got their job the their friend the job oh wow that okay i was like they were like into you thank you for your honesty were you close to getting it and then they told you i mean who knows they're probably like this girl sucks tell her someone's friend got in give her a canned response number five yeah it's like what i used to

do to guys i wanted to stop dating i'd be like you know what i'm revisiting an old relationship i told somebody about this because i'm a genius no i was like it's one of the most genius things to ever come out of lady gang because a friend of mine is dating a guy that just or no she had been dating a guy that will not take a hint like could not take a hint and she like actually told him that she's like not that interested but he still asked her out and i'm like do the rekindling of the old flame yeah then there's a genius so girls if you don't know this so you don't want to hurt a guy's feelings or he can't take a hint because he's an idiot you say i am so sorry you're great you're wonderful if this were a different time maybe it would be good but i've i've revisited

an old relationship i reconnected i've reconnected with an ex and i think we're going to try to work things out yeah and i can't have any you know auxiliary relationships happening residual dick no it's so good because it's not you and it's not like i was going out to meet new people it was like an old it's just fate yeah on its way back there you go boom well i'm sorry that happened to you that's okay but it's only halfway through the year i don't think you're a man to kelsey night i think you were not manifesting it as hard as you should be what else am i supposed to do i have no idea so as you all know zach and i welcomed baby ford to the world in february and as a new parent there are just so many things that you worry about you're googling all day and all

night it's really exhausting and that's why we're just so grateful for huggies their special delivery diapers are their softest diapers made with 20 plant-based materials by weight clinically proven hypoallergenic and dermatologist tested i can feel secure and confident using them for our baby's gentle skin.

moment you did it check she's been waiting for this check off i can't wait till everyone sees my outfits that's it that's all okay um i did it we filmed super fan it's coming out this fall who knows when but good job and i've gotten some great notes back from the show like when you're a host you're supposed to just blend in you guys didn't like your dancing no there's a part that's dumb i don't i disagree with that feedback i disagree too because everybody loved chrissy teigen on lip sync battle and all she to his dance around yeah it's kind of that's like the weirdest response because a host is definitely not supposed to blend in ever well sometimes like brian seacrest come on that's what the example

they give me yeah brian seacrest you never see him dancing around yeah he's just a straight man but i'm not vanilla and i said listen here's the thing i've always been me and to the network i said oh my god well here's the thing i said to my partner who could repeat it to network i said i doubt i've always no she definitely didn't i've always done very well in the focus groups and i said not true not in the lady games tv focus groups where are their children where are their children um i said i would rather be polarizing than be forgettable i was like i want people to watch this show and be like that girl is so cute i love her spice wow i love her outfit or i want to punch that i hate that girl so much because that people could be

hate watching it could be like a bitch eating crackers that they just like can't stand you but like are watching you just because they're like exactly and that's what i really want i do not want to blend because it's like there's so many boring ass hosts that you're just like we're one in a zillion with our cream colored highlights and our high heels like no i want you to know me or hate me so are they keeping your personality in or are you gonna cut out we cut we cut a lot of it out there's some moments that i'm actually really good and then there's some moments like so there's this part of the show at the end we we start with these like five five five super fans and they kind of like get knocked down until there's two and then the final two have to do

the super fan finale which is like essentially a lip sync battle against each other yeah and they do it right in front of the star so there was this moment where like i'm standing beside shania twain and they're doing man like i feel like a woman and shania's like just clapping nodding her head like oh cute and i'm like man i feel like i'm giving it like a thousand and i'm watching it and i was like whose arms are flailing god those are my arms like it was so embarrassing and i was like we have to cut that out so i'm doing some cuts for myself but anyway i had my cat dealie moment i'm feeling very happy jack next on your list was you're going to sell your art prints this year haven't done it haven't done it it's not too late it's not too late i know that's

you could have them in our merch store on tour maybe like originals jv originals yes a little side hustle while we're out there peggy yeah exactly wait maybe i will do that that's a good idea thank you i'm here for all of your okay should i do a monologue also on tour really in atlanta and in texas so that i can achieve my dreams anyone in the audio it's like our last resort on tour yeah please um okay becca your next thing was that you really wanted to expand outside the things you were known for doing and get more into comedies and things like that for acting you wanted to manifest i don't think i said that you absolutely did i didn't say like that you didn't say like that what did i say like i would love to do like a comedy okay okay you're

making it sound like i want to be on like whose line is it in her stand-up career no no you're like yes like play funny shows like parks and rides right like irreverent things like more things that are like more your personality yeah yeah yeah have you been auditioning i'm sorry i didn't mean for this to be such a dark time i know at first and now i'm like and then your next thing was acting related hit me while i'm down you know maybe maybe if i don't know no i haven't gotten into any more comedies nor non-comedy you know hallmark lost my number and apparently so did Peacock. No, they didn't. It's just, it's fine. It's fine. That's the difference. That's why you're going to take over the world and I'm going to die and people aren't

going to know who I was because you would rather be hated by as many people as you're adored by. And I would rather, instead of being hated passionately, I would rather go unnoticed, you know? So I'm not going to take the big swings. You know why I can't take it. I can't take the negativity i can't you know what book i'm reading speaking on my kindle yeah the seven husbands of evelyn it's great it is so empowering yeah because she's you she's like you can you can humiliate me you can take me down but i'm gonna have a fucking tactic to get back up again and if that had been me i would have been the one husband of becca tobin and then she died unsuccessful it's a great book i think they're making it into a film i won't be in it

i know what's happening i know what's happening right now though i know why i do you want me to tell you what's happening sure with you okay i know there's a job that you're perfect for that's coming up and the universe is keeping you open for it because it doesn't want this doesn't work anymore i've been a free agent for a long you haven't been you just had you just had a baby and you, last year you filmed a movie, movies and TV shows. You were under contracts. Oh, maybe the TV. Yes. For like the six months of the TV show. Yes. I was not free and available. But I'm saying as soon as my dance cart opened, there was still no takers. But, but with acting, it's like there is time between each job.

Not this much time. If most people had this much time between the job, they'd be like, I'm taking the hint. I'm packing my bags. Goodbye, Hollywood. i don't think that's true i know that your perfect job is there i know exactly what it is and i can see you in it and it's going to be game changing for you and you're going to take a big swing next i maybe if uh you let the i'll be giving you a bob this evening a haircut yeah it needs to be the i i said again for 10 years in a row i want to take ballroom dance classes oh bummer haven't done it i also since i have so many more than you i'm going to add another one in become stylish was on my list you know what you walked into that meeting today and

i was like kelty looks chic you would look chic wait i said it like it was a surprise i'm sorry it wasn't a surprise no it's a surprise you look very chic and grown up and i think that old kelty would have been really proud of what you put together today it was a sexy mature outfit a sexy mature outfit reminiscent of something i sported in new york city and i was wondering if maybe you were osmosis or actively copying okay so here's the deal i already had that outfit okay i got it at zara it's a vest and pants matching combo i bought it on zara for my new headshots okay which i took i know you're in march i know but we did have a small problem in new york with becca when i only brought one pair of pants and becca only brought one pair of pants and they

were the pants that i saw becca wear and then bought yeah it's hard you know it's hard you guys it's like flattering as it is it gets challenging because i have to reinvent my style all the time because it's being stolen from underneath me it's like i barely it's what is that quote from share and clueless where they're like been going through my uh where she says to amber something about like going through my laundry again because basically she wears it and then amber wears it the next day exactly the same it's the same so i'm having to reinvent myself constantly so we don't twin but can i tell you something about my outfit today and trying to be stylish is that i did have a patterned sock on and i took it off i had a stupid

patterned ridiculous sock on and i was like this makes it fun and then i and then i wanted to be like a quirky yeah i don't want to be quirky i was quirky and then i looked in the mirror and i was like it's too much pull yourself back you did a good job and i did that and i feel so proud okay um jack the next thing you were going to do this year is learn how to surf when did we fight this is december 28th this all this is a weird thing you were like i want to be down in the oc and i really want to learn how to surf oh well that makes sense that's if i could ever afford a house i guess but yeah that i do want to learn how to surf once i buy a house in orange county but i think since that dream is so far away now she's

gonna keep playing drinking games on pizza boxes that's right pizza box game baby um i wanted to get a second home for my family it's not gonna happen this year i want to let everyone know that you said that yeah we were talking big dreams i know we would have shot that right out of the sky no you guys were like palm springs and then jack was like i want to go stay there at stage coach you guys had so many i want to get here's what i'm looking for and i know that the price is like you could be two things at one time this is what this is very reminiscent of like we are all walking contradictions anyways continue what do you mean like i always get frustrated when we're inconsistent but this is just proof that humans are so inconsistent like all over the place depends

on the mood yeah today i'd be like you're crazy where are you how are you doing this yeah well i want to get like i'd like to get a condo like a three bedroom condo that has a kitchen and like a walkout something to like pool life but is full service so like there's a cleaning company and someone there's a manager like I don't want to have to do the shit that I do like I didn't even tell you guys about this other thing I write that down tell you about it um anyway I don't want to do the shit that I have to do here to keep this house running like I want someone to fully take care of it like a condo or something but I would like it to be like I could go for the weekend I could go for a week I go for two weeks if I want to just like

getaway like i'm gonna go to the beach or whatever and like you guys could come or like i rent it out anyway okay next becca tobin on december 28th you said i would like to have a baby soon oh you're lying to everyone i know i wasn't i mean we already had a baby making it was a little foreshadowing that was two months away from being born really yeah isn't that crazy but you kind of knew but you said we all knew yeah so that's not doesn't even count as a manifest because it was already happening it was a fact it was kind of like what you did with your hosting a show and having a cat dealing moment yeah you literally knew no this was in december it was on and off until march 15th um but yes okay next jack you wanted to get a pottery wheel

who the was at this recording did you send like your mom did she take over your body you said i want to buy my house in the oc and i'm going to learn to surf and i want to do that and i'm going to get a pottery wheel i really do want a pottery wheel but again and just a dream that feels so far-fetched it's not that far you just buy one i have no room where am i going to put it yeah do it at your parents house no do you want to do a pottery wheel here no it's just as far as my parents are this is too far away you know i have this little pottery kit but i really want it but i was i want to get one it's like you make it like jared bought me it's called sculpted yeah jared bought it for us for christmas and we made um sculptures of each other's heads did it

look good it was horrible did you ever do the sculpture of your vagina with your partner no mom if you're listening turn this off so there's a really fun game you can do where basically you take, it looks like the thing they put in your mouth when you get dentures. Do you know what I'm talking about? Yeah. Have you done it? No. Oh, so then you mix together like a putty and then your partner puts it up your vagina. How is it getting all the way to the top? No, no, not up. Not like in the hole. It's like, it's flat. They mold it around your labias. And then they make a fleshlight out of it. And then you take it out. No. Oh my God. So dirty pottery wheel. You just take it out and then you have like a perfect stamp of your vagina. Oh, you're

not making like a toy out of it do you have yours i have it here can you see it no well you can do it the opposite you make a sex a dildo in the shape of your partner's dick yeah that's weird i will find it for you find it i don't know where it is i have did you make it for chris we made it together did you do one with his no did he like it i think it was fun it was for his birthday his birthday when we first started dating we went away and i did a huge box and it had like 50 sex toys in it it was all it was I bought one of everything at the pleasure chest and he just opened it and each one was individually wrapped and we just went one by one and some of them were dumb like the dice and the feather and the whip wow all that shit and then some of them was a vagina press

I'll try to find it later god I am so glad Zach doesn't listen to this podcast he's gonna be like what did I do I'm dating a wannabe actress who's never gonna work again missionary for all she won't even give me a moan okay anyway um last thing oh i wanted to get another dog i don't think i can why because i'm traveling too much if i get one it will have to be late fall but what are you doing with callie when you're traveling i take her to the dog sitter so you can do very expensive you are do you think they have a deal like a two-for-one probably is it to be 50 a night per dog i think you can afford it i have a nanny right now okay on one salary you're never gonna have a kid four salaries okay it's true i mean i can't afford it i really do
