If you were able to come see us at the Girly Swirlies Night Out this summer in New York and the tri-state area, you know how much of a blast it was. I mean, we are so excited to announce that we've added a show. And this show, it's Girly Swirlies Night Out. It's just now.
Starting point is 00:01:22 But it's a holiday extravaganza, a holiday spectacular. Because it is taking place December 8th in Hollywood, Florida at the Hard Rock Seminole Casino. Wow. Where we have been so many times. We have. We love that casino. Oh, my God. And when they were like, they want Girly Swirly's to show up.
Starting point is 00:01:37 By the way, we love that casino. But do you remember why we don't love that casino? I do. I do. But I'm not going to. I don't want to say anything negative. No. Things need to change.
Starting point is 00:01:46 Yeah, yeah, yeah. They don't give free drinks. By the way, it has been a really long time since we've been there. Maybe they changed their policy. I'm just saying, like, Claudia and I used to go, we were like these, like, gambling addicts. Yeah. We'd go to the tables. We didn't care how much money we lost.
Starting point is 00:01:57 We'd make friends. And we, you know, when you're spending that kind of cash, you expect a vodka soda. It's true. It's true. You expect a vodka soda. Nothing. Nothing. You have to go to the bar you expect a vodka soda. It's true. You expect a vodka soda. Nothing. Nothing. You have to go to the bar and pay for your drinks.
Starting point is 00:02:08 That's it. Now, I'm holding space for that. Maybe they've had a policy change in recent years. We have not been to that casino in four years. All that I know is that they're not coming for the tables. They're coming for you. So it's fine. But I can't hear Hard Rock Seminole and not think,
Starting point is 00:02:21 no free drinks. It's really exciting. December 8th. So tickets go on sale tomorrow at 10 a.m. for Patreon members. If you're in the Patreon, you will get a code.

Oh my God. Victim mentality. I'm always there.
Starting point is 00:03:46 You're going to be joining me on the toast to obviously uncover the fast five. Oh yeah. That kind of goes without saying. Big time. But before that, I think it's high time we caught up
Starting point is 00:03:54 because we've been through a lot. We have. Since the last time you were on the toast. I'm not entirely sure when that was. Yes. But let's talk about
Starting point is 00:04:00 kind of the biggest thing going on in our lives right now. Yes. Gilmore Girls. Yes. Love. Oh, so good. We went on this journey together and you tell me your because I turned like Gilmore Girls and you knew the theme song and then I meant to record this you guys but I forgot.
Starting point is 00:04:14 If you're out on the run. On the road. Living in her head and it's so cold. Is it being horny and so cold? Yeah. All you have to do is call my name and I'll be there on the next train. So I asked Ben actually at home because we talked about you on the toast. And I said Ben knew the theme song to Gilmore Girls.
Starting point is 00:04:37 I think he'd watched it before like with your sister. And then Jackie said, no, I feel like Ben grew up in a Carole King house. And I said, Ben, did you listen to Carole King growing up? And you know what, Jackie was right. What did you say? Yes. Yes. My dad had one CD that he would play in the car.
Starting point is 00:04:50 And it had James Taylor and it had Carole King. He loved both of them. So I have those songs memorized. And this is one of the songs. Never saw Gilmore Girls. Maybe I saw like an episode or two. We've been trying to start this fucking show. This is the second time.
Starting point is 00:05:02 For a long, I feel like it's more than that. Second time. And for whatever reason, the heart grabbed this time the heart grabbed this time but really gilmore girls is about nothing yeah like you could miss an episode come back nothing's happened sometimes ben's really busy and like i'll watch an episode and he comes back and he doesn't know and claudia lately has been like falling asleep at 9 45 so like i want to finish an episode. I'll watch an episode. Then she wants to rewatch
Starting point is 00:05:27 it the next day. It's your fault. You fell asleep. I shouldn't be punished and have to watch the episode twice. Let me tell you, Gilmore Girls is a perfect
Starting point is 00:05:33 show to fall asleep to. It's like warm and cozy and there's like a nice soundtrack. It is. And you know if you fall asleep you're not going to miss anything. It's kind of been lulling me
Starting point is 00:05:40 to sleep. I like it. Is it crazy to think that Lorelai, I'm the same age as lorelei she's a 16 year old daughter oh in the show yeah she's 32. that's crazy it is really crazy that means that you sorry i think they know that you're 30. i don't think that they know you have a 14 year old daughter obsessed oh my god we should have gotten pregnant honestly best friends thousand

Starting point is 00:06:15 Although When I think about shows That we watch and love Like Young Sheldon There's so many standout characters Who like are the best right Obviously George Cooper Sr.
Starting point is 00:06:23 I don't feel like In Gilmore Girls There's like a standout character Who's the best Like everyone's piss Senior I don't feel like In Gilmore Girls There's like a standout Character who's the best Like everyone's Pissing me off Like Lorelai was Pissing me off

Starting point is 00:07:14 you're crazy you're crazy how are things going over at the good guys if you guys don't know ben hosts a podcast with josh peck of you know oppenheimer fame and it's one of my favorite podcasts you guys have such great guests i think this week the episode came out with mike the situation right it did what do you think about him i really liked him he's just like a he's a star like he's impressive too like but like through and through he's like an entertainer like he showed up just like smelling like an entertainer wearing glasses like versace shirt like he just like is always on yeah yeah even on the good guys where i wear like literal shorts and like show my mangina like he's here you know your clips always come up on my tiktok and there's a lot of leg i want to talk to you
Starting point is 00:07:55 about the fact that you sit on the good guys how you're sitting right now your left ankle is always propped up on your right knee yeah which gives you know in a doorway an entry to your man gina yeah and you insist on wearing shorts so frequently on good guys what the hell is that yeah so um and sometimes you don't wear shoes I've been recently barred from wearing shorts I think that's who barred you Josh he is so right for that it's insane like honestly I really barred myself there was it there was an episode where my shorts were so high that you could literally see my nutsack. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:30 And like Romeo was jealous. Like he watched and he's like, dad, like that's not cool. No. You cut off my nuts and then you're showing your nuts. It's the craziest thing the way you dress on your podcast. Like you forget it's being video recorded too. The thing is, it's not that. It's like I'm just so comfortable.
Starting point is 00:08:44 Me and Josh are so cozy. It's true it's very fraternal. Yeah like we have a great time and if you haven't listened you just don't get it okay? You just don't get it. We're so cozy it's so fun so yes sometimes I'm recording at a home studio and I forget to put on shoes. It's not it's not intentional but now I'm here at the Toast HQ. Dressed to perfection. Dressed to perfection. Pants, sneakers. Spritz merch. Yes.
Starting point is 00:09:09 I don't know if people can see. Spritzing down south. Almost sold out. Get it while you can. One of my favorite things that you and your work husband, Josh, decided to do was to have your listeners be called morons. I think that was like a joke that you started, but people really took it seriously. The way that people come up to me, they say, oh my God, I'm a toaster, I love the toast.
Starting point is 00:09:26 Literally, someone will come up to me and Ben, and I'm like, who is this man? And they're like, I'm a moron. And I'm like, excuse me? Literally the other day, we were leaving corners to a restaurant.
Starting point is 00:09:34 This guy comes up, hey Ben, I'm a moron. And I'm like, okay. It's actually the funniest thing in practice. I don't know if you thought it through that people would come up to you and then identify themselves
Starting point is 00:09:43 as a moron. It is seriously top tier comedy. There was a mid-50s woman yesterday. I was leaving the supermarket and she literally yelled down the street, I'm a huge moron in a toaster. Like screamed it. And you know, it just came from the fact that everybody takes themselves a little bit too seriously. It's true. We absolutely do not take ourselves seriously at all on the Good Guys podcast. And we feel that we're all morons, moron included. Now, in the spirit of that, because I'm being such a good wife now, like letting you promote your podcast so much. Thank you so much, darling. One of my favorite things that you do on your podcast is a what do you
Starting point is 00:10:13 nuts moment, where at the end of the episode, you remark on something you saw this week that was nuts and made you say to yourself, what are you nuts? What are you nuts? So I'm going to put you on the spot because I didn't tell you I was going to do this because I just thought of it. Tell me a what are you nuts moment from the last week that you want to share on the podcast. Okay. Honestly, this morning. No. I have to.
Starting point is 00:10:29 No, you can't because the other day you saw something and you wrote it down. Okay. And I thought it was so funny. Fine. Let me look. It's actually, Ben takes What Are You Nuts really seriously. Like we'll be walking around and we're out to dinner and he'll like start typing away on his phone. I'm like, what are you doing?
Starting point is 00:10:42 He's like, What Are You Nuts moment just came to me. Yeah, no, it's important important i did tell this one you mean the one about uh the the restaurant the restaurant my friend met a girl at a restaurant yes you guys wait okay i told this is funny and we didn't even talk about because this takes place at corner store yes which is this new restaurant in the city that i was raving about on the podcast and not like we went on Friday, right? The following Friday, Taylor Swift was there. Like, kill me. And also, like, now Margot literally texted me to get her a reservation.
Starting point is 00:11:12 Well, Margot asked, how do I get a reservation? I said, you could probably do it. No, by the way, it's, I can't. Really? Yeah, they're slammed now. We got in early. Too early. Too early.
Starting point is 00:11:20 I think maybe we can go back. Oh, you can't get, you just can't do, like, friends and family. No, it seems difficult. I tried. I absolutely tried. I think maybe we can go back. Oh, you just can't do like friends and family. No, it seems difficult. I tried. I absolutely tried. I did. Okay. So I told this what are you nuts on the Good Guys podcast, but for people that did not
Starting point is 00:11:32 hear it. It's actually so funny. I, like the amazing husband, honestly, I don't get credit for this move that I am. We heard about this restaurant Corner Store. Claudia is a very particular person. When she goes out to eat, we need to make sure that it's great ambiance, great food. Otherwise, she's not going to have a good time. And by the way, that's true. But also, like, I had a lot of pressure for this particular evening because we were going out to dinner with the Taylors. And Brian, we haven't seen them all summer. I was
Starting point is 00:11:54 going to be like, this big love fest. So I needed, like, good cocktails, good ambiance. I wanted it to be sceny. So who knows more about, like, the landscape of New York City than Ben? He's like a socialite. And like, you're always networking, going to fabulous places. places I never leave the house so I put it on you I'm like you go find the best restaurant for this Friday Saturday night oh Friday Saturday Saturday dinner so you know what I did I went with my friends two days earlier to scout the location see was the food good was the vibe good is this a good enough restaurant for agreed a very important dinner for the girl he's not out the tailorsors. Brian. Go to corner store. Three of my friends. Fantastic food.
Starting point is 00:12:26 Like truly. He's raving about it. Unbelievable food. I go to the bathroom. My friend Gabe follows me to the bathroom. He's behind me. We're walking down the stairs. All of a sudden Gabe falls down the stairs.
Starting point is 00:12:37 I don't know this part of the story. Gabe's at the bottom of the stairs. And there's a girl behind him. And she goes up to him and is like, are you okay? Like you just fell on the stairs. Yeah. And even though he's probably like dying from internal bleeding, he's like, I'm fine. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:49 It was nothing. He's like a single handsome guy. Yeah. Like I'm, I'm great. There's a line for the bathroom. They're single stalls. The only thing maybe I could complain about. About the bathroom.
Starting point is 00:12:57 Just saying. I agree. I agree. Come on. And they're talking, they're hitting it off. They exchange numbers. They exchange numbers. They're going to see each other again. Three days later, this is now Sunday,
Starting point is 00:13:10 or even Monday, four days later, Gabe gets a text from this girl, and she says, hey, you at Corner Store? Why the hell would he be at Corner Store? What are you, nuts? Like, why would he be there? He doesn't live at the restaurant. It's weird to text the guy that you met at a restaurant and say are you still there he's not a waiter
Starting point is 00:13:29 like why wait maybe she thought he was a waiter no he was wearing a suit wait that's like actually so funny like yeah why would he be there again two days later why would just because she was hey you at corner store no i'm home. I don't live there. What are you, nuts? That is such a good what are you nuts moment. Yeah. It's actually like looking at a really weird thing for that girl to do. So strange.
Starting point is 00:13:51 You here? No. No, I'm not here. What are you, nuts? No, I'm not here. Do you have one? Oh, I'm sure that I do. And I'm sure it's about you because you're always being insane.
Starting point is 00:14:02 Yeah. What has been done recently that is so crazy maybe like cooked you dinner or no no drove you places told you I loved you a lot of crazy oh I will tell you I will tell you the funniest thing this is like this is like like three weeks ago okay I'm on me and Ben are supposed to be meeting somewhere I call him and I'm like, hello, where are you?

Starting point is 00:17:56 Like, deeply problematic in its way. Deep. But the way they personally offend me once a year, the UN being in New York City, like, an already busy city. Why? Why isn't it on Roosevelt Island? They could take a little boat there a little boat island why isn't it in idaho they have space well sure that

Starting point is 00:18:41 expressions I've ever heard. I mean, you said P-U-S-S-Y like five minutes ago and I didn't call you out for it. By the way, I say P-U-S-S-Y because you've indoctr mean, you said P-U-S-S-Y like five minutes ago, and I didn't call you out for it. By the way, I say P-U-S-S-Y because you've indoctrinated me to say P-U-S-S-Y. I grew up in a household where we did not say P-U-S-S-Y, and now our current household says P-U-S-S-Y.
Starting point is 00:18:54 So if I'm going to say P-U-S-S-Y, it's because of you. In our household, do I say dick slapped? No, but I just want to respond to the allegations made against me really quickly.

Starting point is 00:24:31 Near you I tried to Okay first up The ongoing story Of P. Diddy Which has been Like discussed here Almost every day
Starting point is 00:24:37 Things keep coming out Things keep getting crazier And his kids have actually Released a statement Speaking about the quote What they're calling Conspiracy theories Especially as it relates To their mother Kim Porter Who passed away A couple of years ago And of course have actually released a statement speaking about the quote, what they're calling conspiracy theories,
Starting point is 00:24:47 especially as it relates to their mother, Kim Porter, who passed away a couple of years ago. And of course, like her death is now just being called into question because it is definitely suspicious given what's come out about PG thus far. So Sean Diddy Combs' children broke their silence Tuesday following his sex crimes arrest earlier this month,
Starting point is 00:25:00 but the kids didn't mention the accusations against their father. Instead, the Combs kids put out a statement condemning horrific conspiracy theories swirling about their late mother Kim Porter the disgraced hip-hop moguls ex so they said we've been we've seen so many hurtful and false rumors circulating about our parents Kim Porter and Sean Combs relationship as well as about our mom's tragic tragic passing that we feel we need to speak out with the kids wrote so it's Quincy Brown and Christian Jesse and Delilah Combs. They all wrote in a joint statement on their Instagrams on Tuesday. So Porter, who was a former model,
Starting point is 00:25:28 dated P. Diddy from 1994 until 2007 on and off. They had a son, Christian, who's now 26, and twin daughters, Jesse, Delilah, who are now 17. The children's statement comes after the publication of a typo-written memoir that claims to have been written by Kim Porter before her death in 2018 at age 47 as a result of low pneumonia low bar pneumonia so she um allegedly died of pneumonia but like this like 47 page memoir is like rumored to be coming out that she wrote in the days leading to her death it's all like very unverified but the siblings have bashed the so-called memoir which is a excuse me 59 page book self-published on September 6th under a pseudonym by a self-described investigative journalist and they are saying it is 100% fake claims that our mom wrote a book are simply untrue she did not and anyone claiming to have a manuscript is
Starting point is 00:26:13 misrepresenting themselves they all posted this on Instagram I'm interesting that and I think that it's totally valid to be like fiercely defensive of their mother and very interesting that their statement didn't really um say like her dad didn't do what he's being accused of they really focused on their mom which is obviously like a good thing but how old are they they are between like 17 and 26 so like i'm and she wrote this they they claim that she wrote this book in 2007 they claim she wrote it when she passed away um 2018. Oh in 2018. Okay so maybe they would know. I was gonna say like it's possible that like she wrote something and didn't tell her kids. Yeah of course. They said we ask
Starting point is 00:26:52 that everyone please respect our mother Kim Porter and hold her legacy in high regard so that she may rest in peace. It's what she she deserves. We love and miss you mommy. So the statement was actually really heartbreaking like just completely focused on their mother yeah which i think speaks a lot about p diddy that like they released a statement and didn't even like want to defend and be like he didn't do it what can they say i know there's nothing to say i feel like it's just the tip of the iceberg with p diddy like i don't even want to know what's going to come out like to me it reminds me obviously a lot of jeffrey epstein where this very powerful person and
Starting point is 00:27:21 and don't you feel like people like who aren't in hollywood and they just consume celebrity content, everybody feels like there are all these conspiracy theories always about Hollywood, how everyone's a pedophile, and things like this kind of make those conspiracy theories feel really valid. And with the Jeffrey Epstein thing, it was the same thing. Every powerful person, politician, rich person is a pedophile, and they go to Pedophile Island. And you know what? It was making those conspiracy theories look kind of true. And we were all sort of excited for the Jeffrey Epstein thing because we're like this trial is going to blow the lid on every powerful person politician businessman and then they buried it all and then they they killed him which was obviously suspicious and then they never there
Starting point is 00:27:57 was never like Ghislaine Maxwell was going to sing for her supper she was going to release the list that never happened no never happened and now I'm feeling like we're all feeling the same way with P. Diddy right everything's going to come out we're gonna know everybody in hollywood all the actors filmmakers we're not we're not we're not something's gonna happen they said that p diddy's on suicide watch in prison like something's gonna happen like it's just it's getting up seen all over again wow it's fucked up it's fucked up that's a really brilliant analysis thank you and all that i keep thinking about maybe it's because of the alcohol of it all where did sirach go no well he that's also what i was thinking about Maybe it's because of the alcohol of it all Where did Ciroc go?
Starting point is 00:28:26 No well he That's also what I was thinking about this morning Like his Business portfolio was like beyond impressive Like and of course Beyond impressive He's P. Diddy and you think music first But I think that's like one Nineteenth of his wealth
Starting point is 00:28:38 No he is He is so rich So wealthy He is so successful Yeah And built like incredible businesses But on what on the backs of like sex slaves i know he's literally disgusting the hate i have it is surprising
Starting point is 00:28:52 though that he's actually in jail like i don't know i feel like celebrities always get and you know they held him without bail so like he's literally like stuck there obsessed and did i hear that the suicide claims might not be true like I had read something like he was suicidal what are you reading I don't know I thought I thought that I read that he might not be suicidal and somebody just said that like he released I read the prison like put him on suicide watch and then didn't he come out with a statement saying that he wasn't suicidal his lawyer has like been releasing statements just like affirming that he's guilty and they're really looking forward to their day in court I'm sure you are like
Starting point is 00:29:26 nothing's gonna happen I'm telling you oh I'm excited about this next story because we did our homework last night and we attempted to watch Ellen DeGeneres' new
Starting point is 00:29:33 special which I've been really excited about I think the concept of like going through a major scandal going radio silent and then doing a Netflix special as a comedian a special
Starting point is 00:29:40 being like this is my last one I think it's a great way to maybe get back public favor but also it's a great way to maybe get back public favor but also it's a great way to go out like I loved the whole concept I thought it was brilliant
Starting point is 00:29:48 me too and I thought the special would be good me too we watched it last night it came out yesterday it was actually unwatchable
Starting point is 00:29:56 like it was actually not funny and we gave it 35 minutes yes like we didn't give it five minutes it was an hour and 10 and we were just like
Starting point is 00:30:02 bulldozing through it it was so bad I looked at the clicker it was 35 minutes I said we've done enough and in case you haven't seen it the first 15 minutes she's talking about a car oh my god it was like such bad stand-up jokes ben thought that she was being bad on purpose but then she wasn't but then the next 15 minutes were about chickens and then she got into oh by the way yeah way, yeah, I was. Canceled. Canceled. But like, it's been 35 minutes. She started talking about the cancellation at 18 minutes.
Starting point is 00:30:29 Very lightly. Like a touch. And then she started talking about how she just bought chickens. And I tuned in to find out like what her take on the situation was. Is she claiming that she wasn't mean? And she was just made into this villain because she's a woman? Is she claiming that she was mean and she's reformed? And we never even got there.
Starting point is 00:30:48 I don't even know what the message is. Well, what I took away from it was one, that she thinks that she was totally bulldozed because she was a woman. But she also was almost blaming the network for putting her in charge. Making her like a monster. When she should never have been in charge She like made a comment That was like
Starting point is 00:31:07 Ronald McDonald Isn't the CEO of McDonald's Right Implying that she is talent And she never should have had The ability to Be a boss No to like
Starting point is 00:31:15 Yeah to be a boss And to boss people around And that like Her version Which by the way I feel like that's a valid statement But like good luck at the time Putting a CEO
Starting point is 00:31:22 Like on top of Ellen Giving Ellen a boss I'm sure that was not even an option. No, it's not that. It's like if you actually felt that way, then tell somebody. So the overall, this is what likes being pitched to press. Ellen DeGeneres says she's proud of who she's become after being labeled as mean in her toxic workplace scandal. So her Netflix special is called For Your Approval.
Starting point is 00:31:41 And the former talk show host told an audience that she's proud of who she's become four years after she was labeled as mean. And she was accused of leading a toxic workplace. Here's what said when you're a public figure you're open to everyone's interpretation i'm sure you've heard the saying that what other people think of me is none of my business because people will say all kinds of things and you have no control over that but you know the truth and that's what matters she acknowledged that her career in comedy forced her to care what people think as a way to gauge success ellen admitted that she's done she's done focusing on what other people feel about her especially after allowing the mean label to consume her here's what people think as a way to gauge success. Ellen admitted that she's done focusing on what other people feel about her, especially after allowing the mean label to consume her. Here's what she said. If they like you, you're in. And if they don't, you're out. And I've spent an
Starting point is 00:32:11 entire lifetime trying to make people happy. And I've cared far too much about what other people think of me. So the thought of anyone thinking that I'm mean was devastating to me. And it consumed me for a really long time. And after a lifetime of caring, I just can't care anymore. So I don't. But if I'm being honest and I have a choice of caring I just can't care anymore so I don't but if I'm being honest and I have a choice of people remembering me as someone who was mean or someone who was beloved and this should be like a stupid joke I choose that someone who's beloved the thing is is when the special started they did this like sort of montage this timeline and we weren't really socially conscious like I wasn't watching the Ellen show as a kid it was I wasn't
Starting point is 00:32:42 old I wasn't alive um so you really do forget like the magnitude of her impact as a woman in comedy as like a gay woman and like I actually had like chills at the beginning I thought it was really amazing like and I was so ready for her to like take her power back give this bomb ass special I wouldn't have cared if she went up there and was like yeah I was mean everybody can eat my ass like I would have had more respect for her like saying either I was mean too bad or i wasn't mean and i'm like being uh taken down for x y and z she didn't really say anything and even after reading this article i don't understand what the point of the special was and it was such like a bold choice to make a special i feel like what i think there are people who hate ellen and there are people who are like
Starting point is 00:33:23 ellen and i don't think this should move the needle for anybody. I also just don't know why it wasn't funnier. Like she's very, very funny. I know. So I don't know why she didn't just make it like true stand up. Like tell jokes. Remind us how funny you are. And then we don't really care if you're mean or not. If you're so funny.
Starting point is 00:33:38 You could just be hilarious. The bit about the windshield wipers was like a personal low. It was 16 minutes. It was terrible. It was terrible. I was shocked. minutes it was terrible it was terrible i was shocked and it was like it was so low brow like and the crowd like the attempt at relatable humor the crowd was annoying because they definitely picked like they definitely gave tickets to like major major super fans which is good they wanted ellen to be comfortable i totally get that like
Starting point is 00:33:57 it's makes they were clapping at everything they clapped for everything like she wasn't being funny she wasn't saying anything crazy she just the first time she even brought up the fact that she was like a daytime talk show host, three minutes of clapping. Like, boring. The special was too long because literally we had to wait for everyone to stop clapping and cheering.
Starting point is 00:34:11 The thing is, there are Ellen superfans and there are Ellen haters and this piece of content moved the needle for nobody because she didn't say anything. Is it? When she started saying, like, oh, I can say things as a woman boss
Starting point is 00:34:22 but not as a man, like, that's not what it was. Okay, please. That's not what it was was that's not what she was being accused of being like a little nasty like it wasn't that she was accused of being mean and I like how she is actually very smart for her to brand like her scandal as like being called mean she wasn't mean she was like literally the worst boss on the planet like borderline abusive to people like please that was very smart to rebrand like I was just being called mean is it controversial to say though that like I don't care no I don't care either I think like if you're funny you're funny and I don't think it diminishes the fact that like
Starting point is 00:34:53 her show brought joy to so many people they did like such good philanthropy on that show it was funny it was like whatever like yeah the woman behind the show I don't I wasn't a fan of Ellen I liked her show and the way she was a human being I wasn't a fan of her So I didn't give a fuck What she was like As a human being And the way that she Was taken down Honestly like
Starting point is 00:35:08 When I think about it Is insane That's what she Like I went back on You know how many Instagram followers she has How many 140 million
Starting point is 00:35:14 I mean there was a time When like the Ellen show When like EllenTube And all their different brands And they gave you know Little shows to Sophia Grace And apparently
Starting point is 00:35:23 It was a billion dollar media empire and they took it down like that it was actually really crazy and it all started from one tweet crazy like she uh yeah reply to this tweet with your craziest Ellen DeGeneres encounter and weirdly like a million people in LA like people who worked for her people who served her at restaurants everyone had crazy things wow she must have been really fucking out of control she must have been mean yeah She must have been mean So I wish she just said that Yeah like I'm mean
Starting point is 00:35:47 Like I wish she would have said Like yeah I'm fucking Ellen bitch Like I was the first X, Y, Z And you know what It got to my head I'm a human being Like I think actually
Starting point is 00:35:55 A lot of people And she almost said that Because she was saying How like her name Was on every building In the lot that she filmed Like how And she was
Starting point is 00:36:01 And she implied Like how can I not Have become a monster And I wish she just Sort of leaned into that I think there's something relatable like yeah I was kicked out of show business for saying I was gay on my show not only did I come back I came back as the biggest bitch on the planet like I was literally the biggest show I had everybody up my ass how could I not have become a diva like I just think if she humanized it a little bit like people maybe would have like yeah you tell me a regular Joe Schmo
Starting point is 00:36:25 Doesn't get the power that Ellen gets And they don't become an animal too She did though tell some crazy stories In those 30 minutes About what? Like about how she would She loved like playing pranks on celebrities When they come on her show
Starting point is 00:36:37 Yeah that was her thing She would like scare people But she also like played pranks apparently On the people that worked for her Which is yeah And there was a woman that worked for her That was apparently petrified of snakes and she would ask somebody she asked like the building contractor to build a panel to hide snakes in the ceiling snakes okay but like you know it's like it's weird it's cruel it's weird it was it was it was weird and if she's
Starting point is 00:37:00 weird and if she's telling that story that means it's nothing In comparison to the other stories So true So I don't know If it was funny All we'd be talking about Is that it was funny It's so true But because it wasn't funny
Starting point is 00:37:13 Now we have to talk about the fact That maybe she's mean I don't know You know the thing about When you're a stand up comedian But then like you get to be A daytime talk show She said like she had writers right
Starting point is 00:37:21 So you get very comfortable Not writing your own jokes And that's not to say anything Everyone like Jimmy Fallon Doesn't write his own jokes like all these huge huge huge people who get huge for comedy end up in positions where they don't have to write any jokes other people write jokes for them so I do wonder if she worked with writers for this show I'm sure she did because she had a lot riding on this this is like the last you'll ever hear from me and it was just not funny and there's kind of no excuse for that it was just
Starting point is 00:37:44 long-winded it was bad it was low like the like to me's kind of no excuse for that. It was just long-winded. It was bad. It was low. Like, to me, the windshield wipers, I keep bringing it up because it's reflective of how, like, elementary, like, windshield wipers. And so long. Yeah, you guys. And we only watched 30 minutes. So long.
Starting point is 00:38:00 Like, you can make elementary relatable jokes. Like, I don't know if you told them i spoke about it on good guys that we went to sebastian maniscalco i did and his opener did you talk about his opener i did i said it was the funniest opener was a hoot and he told this joke about hotel room towels i said it on the podcast and it's just like it wasn't yeah that's elementary you're talking about towels but it's so funny and relatable and he told it in one minute and like the way his like his accents his intonation
Starting point is 00:38:26 like his physical comedy like there's a way to joke about windshield wipers and the fact that you can't turn them off in 30 seconds and make it relatable
Starting point is 00:38:34 when you drag it to 16 minutes it was bad you've lost me so that's what's going on with Ellen a lot of hype for the special
Starting point is 00:38:41 and I think it really fell flat and so far what I've seen is people agreeing and I think it's a mistake because I thought it was a really bold choice, a bold way to come back. And it could have been great, and it wasn't.
Starting point is 00:38:50 And now people honestly might remember her for not being that funny. It's true. Is that better than being remembered as being mean? No. No, it's not. No, funny and mean is way better than not funny. I am going to move on to the next story, which is about Dancing with the Stars, which is kind of having an amazing season.
Starting point is 00:39:04 I feel like they flopped for a while, and now they're really coming back, making a lot of news. And last night was the first elimination, and Anna Delvey was eliminated, which is not surprising if you saw the performance. I don't think she had a ton of fans. It's a combination of you need to get good scores, and then you also need to have your fans calling in for you. Who's her fans?
Starting point is 00:39:20 Correct. So I think her actual skills were not great. And then, of course, I don't think she had big social media followings like you know calling in to vote for her. And apparently her partner Ezra has revealed that last week after her first dance which was met with a lot of criticism because it wasn't you know technically amazing she cried in the bathroom. So Anna Delvey's Dancing with a Star partner Ezra Sosa revealed that the fake heiress had a hard time dealing with the backlash over her general casting on the show.
Starting point is 00:39:46 In a TikTok video shared Monday, the dancer thanked fans for showing him support and so much love after the season. He said, on my end,
Starting point is 00:39:51 I was feeling so much positivity, but on my partner's end, she wasn't receiving the same. I think the hardest part of my day was after our press line. She was reading the comments and then we couldn't find her.
Starting point is 00:40:00 They finally found her in the bathroom and she was crying. Sosa said he had never seen Anna Delvey show so much emotion and it broke his heart as her partner I just want to give her the best experience she could possibly have and knowing that that was not the case it really did break my heart so Delvey as we know is the fake heiress she spent time in prison and then got cast on Dancing with the Stars now I think it's like I think it's so crazy like that she can survive
Starting point is 00:40:23 prison but like a little social media backlash gets her and that's the crazy that she can survive prison but a little social media backlash gets to her and that's the crazy thing. We're always talking about when you're getting canceled or whatever, you have to really experience it to know how fucking horrible it is.
Starting point is 00:40:32 It literally can be earth shattering and it sounds better than it is. This is somebody who literally went to prison but was crying in the bathroom because of comments on Instagram. Isn't that crazy? It is crazy.
Starting point is 00:40:42 It is crazy. I'm glad that she got sent home Like I don't think Anna Delvey should be famous I don't think like She's a role model And I think that like She's literally a criminal
Starting point is 00:40:50 So I was gonna say I just don't really understand Like the casting I know It's weird And it's like Do you mean all of them
Starting point is 00:40:56 Or just her I don't I don't understand Dancing with the stars In general anymore Like Like it used to be Like these like fun
Starting point is 00:41:03 Like we get to watch Stars dance And now it's like We get to watch Like these like fun like we get to watch stars dance and now it's like we get to watch like these like weird irrelevant or no i actually think like this season and like they've been getting a lot better so it used to be like you know people on their way out of hollywood like you know kind of a last stop or like up-and-comers who maybe we hadn't heard of yet and i feel like this year they did a really good job like a lot of really relevant reality stars influencers actors athletes um Danny Amendola's on it oh I didn't know that yeah like I feel like this season is actually really good Brooks Nader who's like the current Sports Illustrated model they really have I think done a good job of casting
Starting point is 00:41:40 relevant people they always have people from The Bachelor so Joey who was the most recent lead so then the Anna Delvey Casting was probably So that we'd talk about it Like it wasn't for her It was for them No and we are And we are But it's just like
Starting point is 00:41:50 I'm so over the Anna Delvey Lore Me too It's like She literally stole Yeah totally Not to be like Such like a moral
Starting point is 00:41:56 High ground person But like why are we Putting this person on TV I don't know And I just find it Interesting that like Literally I think Dancing with the Stars
Starting point is 00:42:02 Broke Anna Delvey Prison couldn't But Dancing with the Stars Did Yeah And I was find it interesting that like literally I think Dancing with the Stars broke Anna Delvey. Prison couldn't, but Dancing with the Stars did. Yeah. And I was like, would you rather? Because obviously getting cast on Dancing with the Stars is a huge opportunity. Like millions of people watch it. But going home the first week is so embarrassing.
Starting point is 00:42:16 And last night, not only did Anna Delvey go home, but so did Tori Spelling. And I think like getting kicked off the first week Is like actually The most embarrassing thing To ever happen To a human being On the face of the earth Yeah because to what you said It means that you can't dance And you have no fans So would you rather
Starting point is 00:42:30 Like get cast on Dancing with the Stars But get sent home The first week Or not get cast at all Not get cast at all I think so too Yeah
Starting point is 00:42:36 Because then all That it proves to you Is that you have no You have no fans So true I don't want to know That I have no fans I'd rather live in La La Land
Starting point is 00:42:43 And think that I have fans I would like actually cry. Yeah. Because it's fan vote, right? It's both. But like the fans can keep you in. If you have an overwhelming
Starting point is 00:42:51 amount of fans, you can stay on the show. But if your dancing sucks, like eventually, you'll get far with your fans, but it won't take you all the way. But week one.
Starting point is 00:42:57 Well, week one, yeah, yeah, yeah. They want people like engaging on social media, calling in, like making waves. So any, they always cast an influencer.
Starting point is 00:43:04 Charli D'Amelio, I think, came in second yeah so that means you have no fans and you can't dance yeah well that's sad
Starting point is 00:43:12 it's just sad that's sad I know we don't need that kind of sadness no we don't today's episode of the toast
Starting point is 00:43:18 is brought to you by GNC if you're on a GLP-1 medication for weight loss first of all I've been there the journey is a journey and GNC can be there for on a GLP-1 medication for weight loss, first of all, I've been there. The journey is a journey and GNC can be there for you during your time of need. Not a lot of people talk about
Starting point is 00:43:30 the GLP-1 fatigue as a side effect. You can really feel very tired and that's totally normal. And today we're going to talk about tips to fighting that fatigue. So fun fact, did you know that being dehydrated can leave you feeling fatigued? I don't need to tell you how to hydrate, but if you struggle to drink enough or you hate drinking water, getting that level of consumption is just not an option like it was for you. Liquid IV hydration stick packs are a fabulous option here. They will hydrate you better than water alone. I specifically love the lemon lime and the acai flavor, and I obviously get mine from GNC. I get all my wellness products from GNC, so staying on top of your hydration will definitely help you with like that two, three o'clock fatigue crash in the middle of the day.
Starting point is 00:44:04 Resting your eyes, which is obviously not the same as a nap. So maybe you thought you had fallen asleep and you want to feel rested, but even 10 minutes of reclining with your eyes closed can help you through the afternoon. Food is also energy. So calories are a measurement of energy. And I like protein snacks because they're more bang for your calorie. You can't go wrong with the GNC Total Lean Shake, especially their delicious flavors. I'm loving strawberry recently, but obviously cookies and cream is my true go-to. So if you'd like 25% off the entire GNC Total Lean lineup, check out gnc.com slash toast today.

Starting point is 00:47:57 retire it was like really dramatic maybe he's distracted wow okay so we were saying yesterday in the podcast like i love that people Aren't blaming Taylor Because that's like Such low hanging fruit Like woman hating type shit And you just did that So apologize No I'm not blaming her
Starting point is 00:48:10 You literally brought up His podcast Apologize No because I didn't say Taylor You jumped to it It's you What did you mean by that I was talking about his podcast
Starting point is 00:48:16 You can't be a podcaster Like I just I just think I guess maybe you can No he He has an FX show With Ryan Murphy Coming out called Grotesquerie.
Starting point is 00:48:25 I just feel like he does the most. He hosts Amazon Prime. Are you smarter than a fifth grader? He has this podcast. He's in a relationship. It's a lot. I said that yesterday that it's a lot of opportunities being thrown at him. He's in every commercial on the fucking planet.
Starting point is 00:48:34 And he's making so much more money for everything else than football. It's so true. I mean, his $100 million podcast contract. And you don't usually see Athletes taking advantage Of these opportunities In real time Until they're done Yeah
Starting point is 00:48:48 Like Tom Brady Is now taking advantage Of all of these opportunities Now that he's retired Like his deal with Fox And like all this stuff And like You know he's one of the
Starting point is 00:48:57 Investors in Noble He's an investor in everything That's why it's so popular They've sponsored the show And we were saying like Everyone's talking about Noble right now Doesn't it feel that way?
Starting point is 00:49:05 And that's because literally Tom Brady is like- You know he's an investor in Hero Bread? You're lying. No. Wait, Tom Brady's kind of obsessed with us. All of his brands sponsor our podcast. Wait, I didn't know that. Tom Brady is like a serial investor
Starting point is 00:49:15 and he like puts his money to work and is going to make more. That's really smart. And when I think about it though, I don't know another athlete that is doing irrelevant things while still playing to make more That's really smart And when I think about it though I don't know another athlete That is doing irrelevant things While still playing To make money
Starting point is 00:49:29 Is doing irrelevant things? Yes Like it is not relevant To his on the field performance Oh yeah Doing different things Doing Yeah doing different things
Starting point is 00:49:38 Not irrelevant Like when I think of Like a Stephen Curry Like what he's promoting Is Basketball stuff Is basketball stuff Yeah
Starting point is 00:49:44 No like Travis is doing State Farm Pfizer Commercials curry like what he's promoting is basketball stuff is basketball stuff yeah no like uh travis is doing state farm pfizer commercials like a million brands then also acting then also hosting game shows which are things that you do when you've retired yeah podcasts you can do commercials and i even think the podcast is fine but like the hosting shows yeah it's distracting the acting is great it has to be distracting so they're making a lot of news one because of all that said what week is this three like everybody needs to calm down everybody needs to calm down but he's making a lot of news because of the you know the poor performance so to speak yeah but also because he has this show coming out and his mom was on the red carpet answering a bunch of questions so his mom's making news because you
Starting point is 00:50:22 know she gets asked about taylor a lot and i think that she um comes off rude a lot it's not the first time she was asked on a red carpet like about Taylor she was like oh it hasn't been that long I don't really know her like but she just um is like this regular woman who wants to not be asked like she do you know how nervous she probably is to say something wrong and so people are like there's bad blood about the most famous person in the world like I don't, I don't wish to be Donna Kelsey being asked that question for one day of my life. So true. Like, what a hard job. Because no matter what she says, even when she says, I don't want to answer that, there's bad blood.
Starting point is 00:50:56 Right. But God forbid she says something and Taylor's camp gets upset and it hurts the relationship. Like, people shouldn't be asking somebody's mother about about uh their future their future daughter-in-law it just shouldn't happen now she's making news in a positive way so donna kelsey is the sweetest response after a fan confuses her for taylor swift's mom andrea now if you've ever seen the two ladies side by side um i'm gonna flip this they are literal twins like blonde bob queens um you know moms and somebody on social media confused them. So Donna, who's obviously the mother of Travis, was recently confused for the singer's mom,
Starting point is 00:51:29 Andrea, in a post on social media. One of Swift's fan accounts shared a photo on Twitter of Andrea arriving at Arrowhead Stadium, sporting a pin that said, in my 87 era, which is obviously referencing Travis's number. And actor Mark Hamill replied to the account's photo hashtag I love Taylor Swift's mom another user shared hashtag Donna Kelsey this is the sweetest thing and despite the fan confusing her for Swift's mom Donna Donna responded love you too oh literally these two are twins and I think it makes sense why Travis way Travis and Taylor like got along so well they both love their mom so much and their moms are actually like carbon
Starting point is 00:52:09 copies of one another who do you think your mom looks like who's your celebrity doppelganger hmm that's a good question probably Marilyn Monroe facts yeah that's what I'd say that's what I'd say I'd say the same yeah me too who's your dad get told He looks like Because he literally Is twins with Margaret Joseph's husband

Starting point is 00:54:49 has sold for $30,000. They did an auction to celebrate the series anniversary and one of the big ticket items on the 30th anniversary auction included Ross Geller's Geller Cup trophy.
Starting point is 00:55:00 That sold for more than $9,000. So on September 23rd, Warner Brothers, if I knew that this was happening, like I might have bid on something. It's probably better that I didn't know. Thank God you didn't know. You talk about junk that I buy.
Starting point is 00:55:09 Wait, you want to die? What? So the couch sold for over $30,000. No, not over. $29,000. Read some of the other items. $250. Wait.
Starting point is 00:55:17 It's a replica. What? Yeah. It's a replica? Including a replica of Central Perks' iconic orange couch. By the way, you literally could just go to a couch maker and ask him to make you an orange couch. Show him a picture.
Starting point is 00:55:30 That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. I'm in shock. I was about to say that that's like a waste of money for a smelly old couch. But at least it would have been the real couch. Nearly 15 times its original estimate of $2,000. That's how much a couch costs. It's like an ugly little couch. Was this for charity?
Starting point is 00:55:44 It doesn't say Which I find weird I'm sure it was for charity The one with the 30 year anniversary auction That's what the auction was called They sold 110 pieces Of memorabilia
Starting point is 00:55:52 Many of them For well over Their anticipated sale price I'm sure it was for charity And I'm sorry I'm on to these charities It doesn't say anything About charity
Starting point is 00:56:01 Which is so weird It definitely was Hold on Let me know when you're ready for my groundbreaking thought i just want to know it doesn't say anything about charity in this article that's really crazy it has to be for charity they're not doing this for profit so let me tell you what i sold before you tell me your crazy thought okay the uh geller cup which is the trophy from
Starting point is 00:56:25 season three sold for $9,100 which is 30 times the estimate of $300 is it a replica or these are real things I feel like this one it doesn't say replica I feel like that would be the real one okay he's like I don't care how much like it costs to make it right if it has the value of being Ross's cup yeah but if it's a replica then this is a different story. Monica Geller's striped brown season nine shirt, one of the many clothing items worn by the cast, sold for $2,200. A blue cashmere sweater worn by Chandler sold for $6,500. Rachel, Jennifer Aniston's sweater from the episode,
Starting point is 00:56:58 the one with the truth about London, sold for $6,500. That's really crazy. Ross's apartment dresser. That's not even like an important. Just in the apartment. $10,000. That's really crazy. Ross's apartment dresser. Just like, that's not even like a important, just in the apartment. $10,000. Ew, what the hell?
Starting point is 00:57:10 Props like the warning bulletin with a police sketch of Joey sold for $520. That to me is more iconic. Ross's dresser, who gives a fuck? That's really crazy.
Starting point is 00:57:21 I mean, what were you gonna share? So is this, we think that this is charity. I just want to say it does not say charity. So I'm not going to assume charity. Okay.
Starting point is 00:57:28 So if it's not charity, then somebody's having financial issues that they're doing like a yard sale. Yeah. And like taking all this money. It's lowbrow. It's a little weird. Unless. But if it is charity, I'm on to these people. They're going in and they're paying $30,000 for a replica.
Starting point is 00:57:44 Okay. And then they're writing it off. Yeah. Yeah. That's more likely what it is if it's for charity. But isn't it crazy? Yeah. Just like now you just get like a nice write off against your taxes.
Starting point is 00:57:55 Well, it encourages people to do philanthropy. I guess. Would you say you're a particularly philanthropic person? No, because your wife does everything for you and I'm always the one doing it. No, I actually think that I'm an incredibly philanthropic person. What was the last cause you donated to? I donated to... Shit.
Starting point is 00:58:12 Oh, literally last week. Last week? Yeah, when have you? When was the last cause you donated to? Mine was last week. I literally donate on a weekly basis to different causes. Was it last week? Mostly Jewish ones.
Starting point is 00:58:23 Was it last week? No, it wasn't last week. Last week when we launched Lemon Iced Tea by Craig Conover. Oh, yeah, you did. We donated. He's got me here. But that was your company. That was your company.

Which is a lovely charity that Craig works with. Works with. And it's all about the veterans. Yeah, that's a good one. Which is a lovely charity that Craig works with. And it's all about the veterans. And I had an opportunity to go and meet some of these veterans at a golf tournament in August.
Starting point is 00:58:54 And all I have to say is support Hope for the Warriors. Yeah, okay. You got me there. Although, like, your company did that. I mean, like, you write a check from your personal account. I think it was Gift of Life. I don't remember when it was. Gift of Life? When? Yeah.
