Starting point is 00:00:00 Good morning, millennials, and welcome back to the toast. Happy Wednesday, hump day, gargy, pargy kind of day. It is a gargy day, even though this week it is unfortunately giving like, is it Thursday yet? Oh, it's tomorrow, Friday. Hodgepodge of days. No, it's just Wednesday, which I'm going to embrace. I'm going to bloom where I'm planted. It's yours.
Starting point is 00:00:20 I'm going to look at the positives of this Wednesday, which does usher us into the latter half of the week. Does include Dear Toasters, my favorite segment ever. By the way, it's Wednesday. It's also kind of like a big day in our house. And it's a big day in our house because it's Charlie's birthday. Let's take a moment. You know, one year old Charlie Barley. What a journey.
Starting point is 00:00:39 What a time. What a year. Circlage. You know, you've come so far. Let's take a minute. We don't ever take a minute to look back at things at a glance. What a year. Circlage. You know, you've come so far. Let's take a minute. We don't ever take a minute to look back at things at a glance. We never do that. No, the thing is, I know we do it all the time, but we actually never do it.
Starting point is 00:00:52 That's why we make it such a joke when we do, because we're incapable of like recognizing where we are in earnest. So in an earnest way, let's recognize where we are. Okay. Charlie Barley, Farley,ley larley sarley is one years old what does that mean it just i guess it means the beginning of toddlerhood though he's such a baby to me some babies like love being babies and others like are ready to be big men like sitting up don't want to be treated like babies don't want to be held like babies i feel like that's
Starting point is 00:01:20 very much levi cravey energy oh yeah like le Levi is not a baby, never was a baby. No, no. He literally came out of the womb like jogging. Yeah. I feel like Har was not super into baby things. Like he never even loved to be like held like a baby. He liked to always be held like vertically when you're like getting him to sleep. Charlie is such a baby.
Starting point is 00:01:39 Moms love moms angel. Moms love moms angel. He loves being a baby and I love him being a baby. So it's crazy that he's one year. What a crazy year. It's honestly been a great year. It's been a great year. It's not a lot of sleep, you know, but it's, it's been awesome. So I'm so happy to celebrate him today. Do some special things for Charlie Barley. Yeah, we're having tacos. Not a big deal. We're having like a taco night dinner party.
Starting point is 00:02:08 That's our like party. Yeah, no, it's taco Wednesday. It's going to be everything. And I haven't eaten tacos. When we say tacos, of course, we're not talking about authentic tacos. We're talking about Old El Paso. White people taco night. I like a taco salad.
Starting point is 00:02:21 I feel like the way that everybody feels that I have to talk about Tarek El Moussa, like X amount of times per month in order to like continue functioning. Hit your quota. I have to talk about Old El Paso like at least once every quarter. I fucking love Old El Paso. I literally and I sent them we sent them a list for the grocery store. Like do not come back with any other type of seasoning. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:38 I don't and I'm sure maybe it's better. You know, I don't want it. Yeah. Because it's not that we like tacos. It's that we like Old El Paso. It's not like you go out and get tacos. No, no no and like I guess you guys know I do sometimes I like I only like breakfast tacos that's not tacos no that's not tacos I have seen on tiktok um I don't know like the exact type of taco but like you dip it in like that spicy sauce and especially in a light tacos
Starting point is 00:02:59 is like a whole culture no that's not what I'm talking about when I see tacos like I want yellow old el paso shells old el paso old el, everything shells seasoning. I don't know what the hell else they make, but like, I want it all. Yeah. I want it all. I want it. I want it. I want it. Speaking of things that we want. No, that's not a good segue. Saturday is almost upon us. August 17th, our final live podcast, the Borgata Casino. We're going out with a bang. We're going to see you guys in Atlantic City, New Jersey on Saturday. We cannot wait to see you all. Tickets are available at thechosepodcast.com. Sorry, just had to slip that in. No, that's so fun and so exciting. And that's kind of the rainbow at the end of this week that
Starting point is 00:03:38 seems to never end, but now is in a good place because it's Wednesday, Dear Toasters, Charlie's birthday. And I'm also, I'm of the elk and of the mind that like one-year-olds don't need like a birthday party because it's really for you. And it's like, what's your ideal night to celebrate your, oh, sorry, that's for my loaves. And- Oh, Jackie made some big sourdough loaves
Starting point is 00:03:56 and we've tasked Ben- To take them out. Now they're ready. Take out, take out. Yeah. Because when I just took the lids off 10 minutes ago, like they were shaping up to be some of my best loaves yet and they're Charlie's birthday loaves so that he cannot burn them we can't let Ben be the reason no like as if we need more to blame him on I wrote take out
Starting point is 00:04:14 take out he said yep okay okay we are good we're good we're good so sorry you had to hear my alarm that must have been jarring for you if you were sleeping no that literally must be triggering you ever like hear an alarm and like your day is ruined but just know like it was for two gorgeous loaves for charlie's birthday and like i think you'll be okay with what happened i don't have that problem anymore ever since i got the hatch this isn't an ad even though they are sponsored don't forget to use co-host ever since i got the hatch i don't have like alarm ptsd you know when you're using the iphone alarms and then throughout the day somebody's like birth control alarm goes off you're like in hell right it's like nom you hear the sounds again i don't have that i
Starting point is 00:04:47 do sometimes when i hear and i hear it quite often the song good and broken by miley cyrus when me and margo were in like middle school we shared a room we woke up every morning on our like flip phones to good and broken by miley cyrus are you and before the lyrics came on you would hear in your dream you would hear that and you'd be like why, you would hear in your dream, you would hear the, and you'd be like, why is this song playing in my dream? Are you overloaded, candy coated, your life's imploding. We weren't lying when we said like Miley Cyrus and Hannah Montana literally raised us. She woke me up for many years.
Starting point is 00:05:17 I actually, and that's such a shame because that's such an incredible song and it totally ruined the song. Yeah, for a long time, I woke up to Perfect Day by Hoku as, you know, sort of an. Of course you did. As an aspirational, like sun's up. Even though it's like winter in New York. It's a little after 10.
Starting point is 00:05:33 You wish. Make breakfast for my friends. Sure. I thought it was make breakfast for myself. I feel like she'd make it for someone else. Like else and self rhyme better than. Make the work for someone. I feel like she makes breakfast for her friends, leaves the work for someone else like else and self rhyme better than work for someone I feel like she makes breakfast for her friends leaves the work for someone else
Starting point is 00:05:48 like one of the friends can clean up because like I cooked whoever cooks doesn't clean which is a rule I kind of don't stand by well let's talk about that because in our house like we have a rule like if you cook you don't clean and nobody takes more advantage of that than Ben so he'll cook because he actually enjoys it which is also not fair then he'll like he's you know special in the way that he cooks like no pan left unused no utensil left behind but then he really is like and some people who cook they're like okay let me at least help clear no Ben will literally sit and watch and he's made such a pile of shit for us and then he'll also like throw it in our face like I made dinner it's like okay can I tell you what else he's been doing that I don't know if you've noticed yes you probably
Starting point is 00:06:27 haven't noticed but i've noticed keenly what he it's pretty strategic like shout out yeah i know what you're about to say he does fork of july right before dinner and then that night he'll say i'll make dinner for everyone and so he leaves his fork of july mess with the dinner mess and all of a sudden we're all cleaning up fork of july and he thinks we don't know like we can't we can't see the difference between what was fudge and what was dinner but we can because like even though he's cooking for fork of july like you clean that up you're really cooking for yourself if someone else takes a bite of it that doesn't mean now they have to clean it up no that's why ben's always like trying to get us to like try his stuff because then it's like what do you mean we all ate it we all cook i mean we all clean
Starting point is 00:07:01 just to clear it up sun's. It's a little after 12. Oh, wow. Sleeping in. Make breakfast for myself. Leave the work for someone else. People say. People say. They say that it's just a phase.
Starting point is 00:07:18 They tell me to act my age. Well, I am. Just in case you were curious. It's like a very aspirational way to wake up like this is going to be the perfect day one thing about me i'm not a morning person no and i think for a while we all thought if we woke up to songs that we really enjoy like songs that truly boosted serotonin perhaps we could undo a lot of the alarm trauma no it's just gonna make you hate that song good songs though i've bounced back with perfect day because it's a bop through and through.
Starting point is 00:07:46 That's really, um, there are a couple songs that only exist in movies, right? Like we never heard them on the radio, but we know every word. Perfect Day is one of them. I feel like that. I was listening in the car. This random song came on. I didn't even know it, but I knew every word. Hold on.
Starting point is 00:08:00 It's very like early 2000s types of movies that always play that same song. We got more bounce in California than all your, they need to play that at the Olympics opening ceremony. If they really want to make a splash, by the way, that's like the vibe they were literally going for. Okay. Like,
Starting point is 00:08:20 I'm not going to find what I'm looking for. It's called something about a bell. I can hear the bell. I wish that's a song from a movie that we know every word but we never heard on the radio yeah okay no one's gonna don't you hear him chime but there's like a genre of of music that like literally just played. Okay. Like this one. We're the kids in America. Whoa. We're the kids in America. Whoa.
Starting point is 00:08:50 Everybody live for the music. I think that was in New York Minute featuring Mary-Kate and Ashley. It was also in Riverdale. Oh, of course it was. And I think it's on the Clueless soundtrack. Yep. And that's another song that they should play at the Olympics opening ceremony. Oh, I mean, also party in the usa totally we have a lot of ideas if the olympic ioc you know if the international olympic committee wants to work with a couple of gals with their fingers on
Starting point is 00:09:14 the trigger on figures on the pulse well i think they the lat oak needs us the los angeles olympic committee yeah because they are in charge of the ceremony i'm excited oh and something i wanted to clear up apparently like the hosting country is it's at their discretion what sports get added so break dancing was like a french thing they wanted to champion and that obviously is like a shit stain on their resume like they will go down in history for making us watch that um la has already said like nah no thanks but they have added more things um that are like kind of America coded. Baseball softball is coming back because it's important to America. Yes.
Starting point is 00:09:50 And I, somebody had said, I think there might be pickleball, which would be so LA. So many people sent me so many versions of like the same story graphic that explained what's coming back. Let me see if I, if I saved one of them. And I don't know, I don't feel like it should be up to the country that feels like an unfair advantage like maybe breakdancing is huge in France and like nobody else does but they didn't even win it I know but like let's say pickleball is huge in America I don't know if they play pickleball anywhere else so adding it like you're giving people four years to become the best here's where what's adding flag football why not football football they really don't play it anywhere else that's what rugby is flag yeah i don't know no flag football is football but like you don't tackle
Starting point is 00:10:30 each other you just let's grab someone's flag and do you think that they'll tap any of the nfl players yes that's cool yeah it is i guess like travis kelsey who like he's the same at football as he is his flag football because he doesn't tackle he just runs and catches yeah then lacrosse oh that's a big one we're such a lacrosse country yeah yeah i'm happy for the lacrosse players who like play professional lacrosse and also work another job because it's not a job totally then baseball which we know softball for the girlies it's giving a league of their own cricket okay british yeah okay like that's something when you know london hosts they can and squash so no pickleball but squash is like elevated pickleball yeah yeah yeah so we've got a great show today we've got stories we've got to your toasters tell me about the stories like
Starting point is 00:11:14 good a lot of things that good question mark that have been like in discussion in some way or another in the last few weeks so it'll be yeah i think all of them kind of like touch on things that we've been talking about so you'll see you'll see that's what i'll say you'll see it's kind of it also sort of remains to be seen yeah and it's also stories are what you make them so let's make them rock make them rock slay she really the no crumbs well that's the thing when you look back on the hannah montana and we didn't even talk thing when you look back on the hannah montana and we didn't even talk about it when we were talking about hannah montana at a glance what's so sad is that so many of those songs and they were probably the best songs ever made you know
Starting point is 00:11:51 the hannah montana entirety from the first song they released to the last were really um are very uh billy ray cyrus coded he wrote a lot of them he produced a lot of them yeah and i feel like he wrote the ones that we know that he wrote because on the show like he made us know so i don't feel like it's more than we think like i think butterfly fly away okay i'm looking it up yeah um i could also like see himself right by the way he didn't write i think any song that he wrote like he pushed he inserted himself into it on the show. So we know that. It's not like Nobody's Perfect was written by him. Butterfly Fly Away.
Starting point is 00:12:29 Love that Let's Go. That's like a real deep cut from Hannah Montana Forever. Yeah. He like always wrote the emo ones. Yeah. And like kind of the not good ones. Even the Butterfly Fly Away is gargy pargy. I can set it aside if it means having to do away with that devil skank.
Starting point is 00:12:45 Right. Everybody knows that devil skank. So like goodbye, butterfly. Fly away. No, that one's kind of hard to let go. Butterfly, fly away. Butterfly, fly away. Yeah, by the way, he really did not write a lot of them.
Starting point is 00:12:57 The one that keeps coming up is a love that let's go. And that one's like not even good. It's OK. Like I can live without it, though, if it means standing by Miley's side the way I feel about like Hannah Montana music similar to like the soundtrack of high school musical is how I feel about like McDonald's you know the fact that people like you know win James Beard awards for like some of the most disgusting fucking food you've ever seen in your life and like McDonald's is out here serving up quality meals every single time like I think that they deserve a Michelin star and that's why but it's looked down upon right
Starting point is 00:13:27 mcdonald's is like ew gross i want to go eat at a michelin star restaurant and like when you travel abroad and like you don't eat the food you just like eat mcdonald's you're like a tacky american okay please that's how i feel about like the music from high school musical and hannah montana like to me that's the best music ever made like similar like one direction when they were at their peak like that is the best music ever fucking made and the fact that like people get grammys or like they look down on like oh you know like i'm listening to an orchestra like to me the soundtrack from high school music back one album of the year where was han montana's grammy where was it's gonna be a night to remember like where like that's where
Starting point is 00:13:58 i feel i don't relate to my culture and my generation at all i feel like a lot of our generation gets that i feel like the people listening to the show get that. And that's why we've created such a safe space for ourselves here. But certainly, you know, the media elites don't. Yeah, and I'm kind of sick of the media elites. I'm sick of them. We need to become them.
Starting point is 00:14:17 I think we are. In our own little corner. In our own little corner, on our own little couch, we can be whatever we want to be Cinderella like ate with that one she was 100% right it's giving delusional schizophrenic in the corner like you can be whatever you want but like you're still just like the girl cleaning the floors speaking of Cinderella did you see the trailer for New Snow White I did I did they're giving it their all I did and I saw that you know that's it was like a big Disney weekend they had
Starting point is 00:14:44 like d23 like they're like yeah which Miley spoke out right it's a big convention it's kind of like how when tim cook goes and like announces all the new apple things like all the apple freaks show up all the disney freaks like new fronts yeah and they announced like all their upcoming slate of content and yes we got the cinderella trailer and really cool to know that you know to not offend any of you know any people from the little people community instead of you know giving them jobs and acting they just created cgi little people which is more offensive to me yeah i thought they were doing away with dwarfs i think they were at one point and then it was like the erasure of dwarves like that's not okay either like these are real people
Starting point is 00:15:19 but then they made them fake people yeah no they really didn't know how to navigate that, I will say. What's his name? Peter Dinklage. Peter Dinklage, girl boss a little too close to the sun because he made a big stink about it. So look what he did. He put all the fellow dwarf actors out of work because they still are, you know, using your culture.
Starting point is 00:15:37 They're using your people for content, but they're not employing any of you. They're all CGI. Yeah, that's, I don't think that was the right move either. I think he was trying to say like the movie made a lot of changes to be more quote-unquote woke yeah and he was saying like you're making this like woke fest but you're still having these like caricatures yes i think maybe if the dwarves that if once we met them if they weren't like snoozy lazy no maybe if they
Starting point is 00:16:04 had like a little bit more like they were dynamic and maybe we get to know why he's so sleepy and they were like what's going on at home developed people that would be better maybe they are but the fact that it's cgi just takes away from the fact that there were seven actors who didn't get the job when it's already hard enough i'm sure right as a little actor percent. Yeah, so I did see the trailer. Like, I, like, yeah. Yeah, I know. I really don't want to go down this path.
Starting point is 00:16:31 Me neither. Let's just move on. But like, seriously, Gal Gadot is my queen. I'm so happy to see her in the movie and she's amazing in everything she does. Agreed. And I can't say the same about that other girl. Let's just leave it at that.
Starting point is 00:16:41 Okay. So I'm ready to dive in. Not in the mood. No, me neither. I'm not in the mood no me neither like it's a wednesday things are hard is it not hard enough it's hard enough being a wednesday so now also turdy and i went out last night oh my god we did we looked gorgeous we went to like a little party yes it was a an event dinner hosted by rachel zoe in collaboration with love shack fancy and jackie and i are having like a Love Shack Fancy summer we keep wearing Love Shack Fancy and so they've kind of seen us as
Starting point is 00:17:07 very like you know inspirational and they invited us and we just like seriously showed up ate everything and left like we literally showed up for the food and for the free dresses we looked amazing it was so fabulous it was gargi pargi I got so many bug bites which like I'm really regretting today but i looked amazing so it's really all that matters yeah we had a nice time and it was like so like fashion swirlies of us it's really crazy because i don't go to like events like that a lot but when i do at home like i'm just like a fabulous girl on the back of an uber like facetiming making content we drove because we're in the suburbs obviously and something's so crazy about like driving to an event i can't
Starting point is 00:17:41 explain it like it's nice yeah oh we saw saw Joe Jonas. He wasn't at the event. He was just at the facility that the event was being held at having drinks. Yes, on our way out, he was on the porch. Yeah. Porch-in. Porch-in. Yeah, with like his DNCE friends, I think.
Starting point is 00:17:55 Yeah, it was like giving band. It was giving DNCE era. You know the one. You know the one. I think his new album's coming out any day now because I saw a headline that there's going to be a lot of collaborations because he wants to include other people's narratives. Because he also wants to do anything to eclipse his brother Nick.
Starting point is 00:18:10 Like these, you can't convince me that those two don't fucking hate each other. Yeah. I can't go down this road right now either. No, no. I can't. I can't get invested in the Jonas Brothers anymore. Like seriously, they've taken so much of my time. My heart, you stupid bitch.
Starting point is 00:18:23 Like your childhood. I can't. I really can't i really can't so we're gonna make a left turn again yeah and we're gonna go down the road of the fast five stories that you need to know and the fast five stories that you need to know are not up on my ipad because i was dilly dallying reading the words to um perfect day by hoku now without further ado today's episode of the toast is brought to you by Splenda, Splenda Stevia to be specific. You know Splenda, the little packets of yellow sweetener. They have created
Starting point is 00:18:52 something brand new and it's Splenda Stevia. So just so you know, it's made by Splenda, like the Splenda, you know, COO is involved. It's the Splenda Co. However, it doesn't have any of the original Splenda in it. Splenda Stevia is an all new plant-based sweetener that uses US grown Stevia. So unlike other Stevia brand, Stevia uses US grown Stevia that they grow on their own farm in Florida. Having a US farm also means lower carbon emissions and greater sustainable practices.
Starting point is 00:19:15 It comes in packets, pouches, liquid sweeteners. Splenda Stevia is kind of like very Jackson Claude coated. I'm such a Splenda girl. I feel very loyal to the yellow packets. I go anywhere and they give you that thing with like the yellow, the pink, the blue. I'm like, I'm always going yellow. And Jackson's recently, we've always been a yellow family too. Jackie has recently made the switch to Stevia and she said, you know, she was going on and on about the benefits. I'm like, yeah, that's great. But like, I'm a yellow girl. I'm sorry. I'm yellow,
Starting point is 00:19:38 tried and true. She's always been a yellow belly. I have now with Splendor Stevia, it's kind of the blend of our two favorite things, Splenda and Stevia. Jackson Claw. It is, of course, a zero calorie sweetener. It is perfect to use anywhere you use sugar. I use sugar a lot. I'm always putting, now these days, Splenda Stevia in my sugar-free yogurt, making it a little tastier. I got yellow packets in my purse.

So if you've heard of Ozempic, Wagovi, they're kind of taking the world by storms. You've probably heard three things. It's effective, but they're expensive and they're also really hard to get. But that's where Row comes in. I love Row. I'm a huge fan of these drugs. As you guys know, I had amazing success with one of them. But and people ask me questions about it all the time, you know, side effects, things like that. But really the number one question I get is like, where do I start? How do I get it? Who do I go to? And it
Starting point is 00:22:10 can be really, you know, intimidating. And also when, once you end up getting a prescription, it's really unaffordable and inaccessible. So if you've been curious about Ozempic or Regovi, but you can't get your hands on it, that's where Roe comes in. You've probably heard about how effective they are. And maybe this is the sign that you need to like take the jump. Head to Rho. Through Rho, you can access prescription compounded GLP-1s with the same weight loss ingredients as the brand names that GLPs have, but at a fraction of the cost. Rho is compounded GLP-1s in stock now. You can get it in one to four days if you qualify. And members of Rho have support throughout the process. So if you're eligible for the medication, patients have access to their provider on demand for any questions. If you qualify from
Starting point is 00:22:48 the comfort of your own home, that means no scheduling doctor's appointment, no commute to the doctor's office, no waiting room. And then I think a lot of people are really embarrassed to ask for it and they don't know how to start that conversation with their doctor. This way, it's from home. It's not awkward. It's so easy. If you're prescribed, your medication will ship directly to you in one to four days. So go to row.co slash toast. Membership started just $99 for your first month and medication costs are separate.

Starting point is 00:23:25 Our first story, we are circling back to It Ends With Us drama because more things are happening. A few things. First, a proud Blake Lively is addressing the domestic violence in It Ends With Us amid press tour backlash. So as we've discussed, she has been getting backlash for promoting this movie with flowers and hair and fun and girly swirling movie star then like you know platform using her platform and he has promoted it as a very serious film talking about dv at most every turn and now she's suddenly hitting back at the backlash she said um amid claims that she has not focused on the film's serious themes she re-shared a clip Tuesday on her Instagram story from an interview with BBC News.
Starting point is 00:24:09 In the interview, she said, quote, Lily Bloom is not just a survivor and she's not just a victim. Lily Bloom is her character. And while those are huge things to be, they are not her identity. Well, she's getting dragged for that, too. So what she had said in the interview was like, you know, I don't want to minimize what, you know, being a victim is, but it's important to remember like people who are victims of a domestic abuse aren't, that's not your whole life. Like you're more than that. You're a mother, you're a sister, a friend. And people really didn't like that. She said that like that, you know, somehow it was like speaking down to victims. And I actually liked what she said. Like,
Starting point is 00:24:45 yes, it's important to identify yourself as a survivor and a victim but that's not all you are and that's not all you're ever going to be you're going to accomplish things you're going to live a happy life like I actually thought it was a great message and I think now we're getting to a point where like people have decided their sides right and now no matter what she says or does people will find fault with it and same for him I had not like I said the other day I had not really seen people like taking Justin Baldoni's side I not like I said the other day I had not really seen people like taking Justin Baldoni's hand I felt like that was the unpopular unpopular side but then I read the comments I was like oh okay and now I see what Turdy is talking about doesn't change
Starting point is 00:25:14 how I feel I don't know why Blake Lively has to be the first person to one like spoil her movie in every interview that she gives and two like only mostly talk about the serious nature of the movie when the movie is so many other things too and it's a press tour this is movie making it's Hollywood these are red carpets like what do you want they're like she's not shining a light on domestic violence enough she literally starred in a movie about it like isn't that not shining a light on it and I don't know I think we're putting a lot of undue and like unwarranted pressure and scrutiny on Blake and I I am team Blake I've firmly come to that conclusion. Um, and I feel like people are just hating on her. And I think she's really directly responding to the, the new, the, the line is like, you know, Blake's not serious, right? Blake is being, you know, shallow about this using as an opportunity
Starting point is 00:26:01 to promote herself and to promote her brands. And Justin would never do that. And and she's now seems to be directly responding to that last night she put up an instagram story with like you know links and you know uh trigger warnings and a lot of people are mad that the movie doesn't have a trigger warning i don't like trigger warnings i don't think like they should be a thing but that's just my personal opinion um the book doesn't have a trigger warning does it and it's a spoiler i don't know Maybe new versions of the book do because like it got so popular. But yeah, it is a spoiler. I'm not sure. Then another clip of Blake is going viral where she's in an interview remotely with a journalist.
Starting point is 00:26:37 And she's on a couch with Brendan Slenar. And he's asked a question like, you know, this movie obviously talks about an issue that affects a lot of women. And you're doing a press tour. You're meeting a lot of fans of the book fans of the movie fans of you and if somebody is wanting to talk to you about their experience with domestic violence with this issue what's the best way to do that and she's getting torn apart for her answer where she's basically like oh what do you want my address you want my social security number and then brendan slenar is like kind of rolling his eyes at her being like this fucking bitch and it's really going viral because he's so clearly like done with her and her answer is
Starting point is 00:27:07 people are saying very j-lo coded people are saying she's in her j-lo era where she's like really not self-aware and like interacting with fans in a really weird way um and i agree the clip is very weird and her answer is like kind of rude um but i don't think there's enough people talking about what a bad fucking question that is what a bad question on so many levels i also think she misunderstood the question because I think the guy was saying like, if someone comes up to you, they see you and they want to talk about this. If someone's going through that, like they should get help. Blake Lively is not now the authority on TV. She played a character in a movie that doesn't like, that's not based on a true
Starting point is 00:27:39 story. Yeah. Like what can, if you're going to Blake Lively for help, like you, you, you do need help. And I mean that in an earnest way, like that's not on Blake Lively. What kind of question is that? There's no right way to answer that question. I agree. I thought her response was like sarcastic and rude, a little rude, but I also feel like there's not enough onus put on the person who asked that question. We're going to now analyze this clip and everybody's analyzing Blake and no, she's totally being like a B word. what the fuck kind of question is that like that's a bad question and i don't think people should just be going up and trauma dumping on one person no she's just an actress you guys she's not a fucking activist she's not like a scholar she's an actress in a movie and we're mad that she's
Starting point is 00:28:18 wearing pretty dresses like where is that and and people are like but look at justin baldoni and i'm telling you i do not think justin baldoni and by the way justin baldoni has now hired crisis pr yeah which makes me think like something's coming oh really yeah i don't know why like you don't hire crisis pr because i'm so involved in this right and i and i'm taking the temperature and the temperature is positive for justin baldoni if anyone would be hiring crisis pr it's blake because she's the one who's seemingly responding putting up instagram links like oh you're not taking this seriously okay here are my links like yeah yeah yeah she's on the back foot right she's on the defense right yeah and justin baldoni is
Starting point is 00:28:51 kind of like basking in there's been like you know weeks long video proof of him being serious about dv right he's winning if there is a competition so him hiring crisis pr makes me think like there's something about to come out about him i don't know why like why would hire, you only hire crisis PR when things are really bad. It's not bad. Things are great for him either because the whole cast is against him. It's not just Blake. So like that automatically like is a red flag. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:14 But also I think that the interviewer who asked that question, like with some, like I don't think that many people are going to be going up to Blake, like looking to, if they're going through something serious, they're not like running up to be going up to Blake like looking to if they're going through something serious they're not like running up to their local movie star like looking for advice they shouldn't one because like that's too much for one person to take on like she if every person who sees this movie and feels compelled by it which I'm sure is a lot of people
Starting point is 00:29:37 who can draw on their own experiences and they want to dump that on that's a lot for one person to take like you shouldn't do that like that's not her job she's not a therapist someone who's going through it like would do that right and for him to assume that they would like you think so little of women it's so true it was such a bad question it was actually an offensive question it's an offensive answer defensively it's an offensive question to blake and to the hypothetical woman that would do that so true so true yeah and you know what maybe brendan sclinar was rolling his eyes at the dumb fucking questions they're forced to answer i think he was i didn't get to the part where he's rolling his
Starting point is 00:30:09 eyes but i imagine he was rolling them based on the exchange got really dumb when like he didn't know when the interviewer then didn't know how to respond to like blake's sarcastic no he rolled his eyes like as blake was talking about her social security number and her address like it's very like it seems like he's rolling his eyes at like perhaps yeah no not not the greatest look for amid this torrent of backlash but but by the way i think people are now looking of this storm we would have never seen what was this irrelevant interview like she's doing a million interviews people are now looking for but they're also doing with justin too yeah how did he's not so off the rails he's not being interviewed as much as she is like yes he's a star and yes he's the director but like blake
Starting point is 00:30:50 lively is like lively like she there are way there's way more footage of her well that's probably just a choice on his part then because any any show period would want to have him on he's in the big romance movie of the summer he's a star and director like no one's turning him down there's not as many clips there's like a couple of clips going around of justin baldoni today show on the red carpet being asked like if he would direct the second movie there's like three or four ones going viral like there's a thousand of blake and she's i think stopping to talk to everyone on the red carpet like i think she's really proud of this movie yeah i don't know they can never make me hate her and i wasn't even like a diehard fan i didn't come into this biased no not at all but i'm just not buying it when everybody's that's
Starting point is 00:31:28 just so us too like when everybody's like choosing one side we're like well what about the other side yeah but this situation it's a little bit of both because the whole cast is against justin yeah but and we're with the cast but like the public is with justin so we're with blake i want to hear from jennyate I feel like she knows like I definitely think the younger actors might not know 100% like of what went on because they're new to the industry they're young they probably got kept out of a lot of the stuff but I feel like Jenny Slate like she's you know a successful woman in the industry she's like old enough to be involved I just feel like she's an interesting take yeah I just I don't think we're ever going
Starting point is 00:32:04 to really know what happened but now like what's happening is the story like whatever happened on set was like a small thing and it was enough to be like listen I don't really like this person now I know great not a big deal but the fact that like everyone figured it out they're dissecting every interviewing clip like now this is the drama yeah and this is probably like worse than whatever happened like is it's good for the sequel because in the sequel like lily hates ryle so they really won't have to act yeah yeah i think overall it's good for the movie everyone's talking about this movie true i want to see it so badly we will see it yeah so i think it's good plus deadpool yep at the same time rising tides it's just crazy because blake lively and ryan reynolds have sort of been this like protected class of celebrity for so many
Starting point is 00:32:44 years like just universally loved and adored they put out like one instagram and it's just crazy because blake lively and ryan reynolds have sort of been this like protected class of celebrity for so many years like just universally loved and adored they put out like one instagram and it's like 11 different news stories and i've always been like what is the hype with these people and now i'm like starting to like them and everybody hates them that's so me yeah but i like her now i just never really stopped to like think about her and now when i do it was more so that interview i don't know if it was Vogue or yeah, the Vogue one. She's on the cover of September issue and it talked about like what a hard working, working mom she is. And I never like stopped to realize like she has four kids.
Starting point is 00:33:12 She did that all like in the prime of her career. She's like back to work immediately. She puts motherhood first. Like I think she's amazing role model. So whatever happened on set, like I don't really care. Like I just think this is a good woman. I agree. And I don't like love Ryan Reynolds like my husband does right last night we got home from our big fancy party
Starting point is 00:33:29 what's our husbands doing my husband is making ben watch deadpool indoctrination we walked in on indoctrination because they saw deadpool 2 together in the movies ben really liked it but he had never seen deadpool 1 my husband who was the ambassador for deadpool one then the wives are out oh i'm gonna make you watch deadpool one yeah there's some like it does everyone's husbands love deadpool this much so my husband like now that i've noticed it claudia it's every three days he's watching deadpool it's funny it's the crate i had no idea he was such a fan deadpool era no it's been going on forever yeah i need to throw him a deadpool themed birthday party you do like he's obsessed oh my god we'll all wear like the deadpool costume they're like
Starting point is 00:34:10 that like what blake lively wore to that screening that ugly red outfit we'll wear it i love that yeah so that's the latest on it ends with us it's getting like really nasty and polarizing it is when it all started kind of as like a funny you know no we were like it's everybody else noticing that's like what it was and now like we're getting now we're getting hate comments and also people have ruined it by like making it seem like anybody who's not with justin is like not supporting like survivors of domestic violence like that's not what this is seriously no it's true and lighten up like it's a movie no and at the end of the day like i feel good in my stance like this is a story for women by women this is a book that was like literally read by every woman in america this is a book that touched even someone who has no experience with tv like who just loved
Starting point is 00:34:54 this book like this was a celebration seriously of women colleen who were doing the most for women in literature like i'm gonna side with the women i'm siding with colleen i'm siding with blake because i actually support women how about that no and i think everybody's by the way everybody's all women supporting women until there's a woman to support like hello right and i think that blake like tv is a big theme of the movie but like she said it's not the only thing about lily and also making the press tour like a girly swirly twirly affair like does go to show like women like can do more and do all of these things and we shouldn't like sacrifice our girlhood because someone else ruined it so factual what you just fucking said thank you
Starting point is 00:35:31 thesis of the the the saga okay no but we should have a sad depressing a fucking movie press store because some man couldn't control himself right no. No, let's succumb to it. Let's succumb to the darkness and never do anything and never identify as anything other than a survivor and a victim. And that's what Blake Lively was saying. And I'm surprised that people took such umbrage with it. Nobody wants to be defined by the worst thing that's ever happened to them. They're in, well, like some people do want to like stay in their, in their victimhood. That's not healing.
Starting point is 00:36:01 No, no. But like to be a survivor means to like come out of it and do other things. And it's always going to be a part of you, but it's not the whole of you. It's not the whole of you. So this story ends with that for now today. If anything else happens,
Starting point is 00:36:16 we shall let you know. Speaking of Blake Lively, her best friend tailored through a wrap party for the era's tour crew in London after canceling her Vienna shows over the foil terror plot. So tailored Swift was seen out and about for the first time since her Vienna concerts were canceled. She tried to lift the spirits of Arras tour staff members by throwing a wrap party in London on Monday night. She was spotted leaving the swanky members only club Annabelle's in an outfit from Vivian Westwood's new autumn winter 2024-25 collection per pictures obtained by DuMois.
Starting point is 00:36:46 Yeah, there was a lot of, like, hate for this outfit. I loved it. I think she looks really cute. I'm, like, it's quirky. It's different. It's so LA. I mean, it's so London. Like, I loved it.
Starting point is 00:36:55 It's just making me, like, a little sad because it's very fall. And we were talking about this yesterday. Like, everyone has declared summer over. Yeah, at the event, Rachel Zoe was like, I'm so sad summer's over. I'm like, it's literally not. It's august 14th like we we're halfway through the second month of summer and like the actual season doesn't end till september 21st like why is everyone saying summer's over no swirly summer's just getting started we're still in swirly summer so like this outfit i love it but it's like it's i would love it more in october
Starting point is 00:37:22 when i'm rooted in my fall era. But now she's like ushering me along and I'm like, I just got my tennis dress collection all set. By the way, I am just now like realizing cause I haven't thought about Taylor in a couple of days that she didn't respond to the Vienna cancellations. I'm sure people in the community are like finding umbrage with that. I'm letting her react to this in whatever way she wanted.
Starting point is 00:37:42 And I feel like there was a time in her career where she was so worried about what people would think and so you know focused on like doing what she thought was perfect and right and she would have crafted a statement and and I feel like this is such a hard thing for a human being to have dealt with and like if she's choosing not to respond to like protect her own whatever like I'm all for that but I do feel like there was a time where not responding would never have been not even like you know posting on Instagram for a canceled show would have never you know been an option for her but now she's just at this point in her career she doesn't give a fuck and she's putting herself first yeah and i don't think it's like i don't care so much but i think at a certain point what can she even say to like sum up the
Starting point is 00:38:16 magnitude and the impact and i'm sure she's dealing with a lot i see in some of these comments and gets like a isis target on her back who the fuck wants that lot. I see in some of these comments. And then when she gets like a ISIS target on her back, who the fuck wants that? I see in some of these comments, people are now mad that she's like partying. What about Vienna? No. But like still the people who worked on her show, the lighting, the casting crew, craft service.
Starting point is 00:38:36 Deserve to be celebrated. Deserve their shine. I'm sure they had this party planned for a long time. And what we're going to cancel the party because of the terrorists, they are going to win again. They already canceled the concerts. You don't cancel the party because of the terrorists they are going to win again they already canceled the concerts you don't cancel the party too you don't you have you have to party the party must go on I have something to say and I know the people who had tickets in Vienna like aren't really not about my my take on this and I alluded to it last time and people like were sending me hate mail and like I feel it even stronger today like the crying and
Starting point is 00:39:02 yes I say this is somebody who's been to three hours tours. So like, yes, I'm on, I'm coming from a place of privilege. The crying over not being able to see Taylor and like really not even caring so much about the potential danger you could have been in and like the thousands of people who could have died. Like people's priorities are so fucked up and like we can hold space for two things. No, actually right now we're not like, I'm going to focus on the fact that like, thank God thousands of young girls were not mowed down by terrorists. Like to me, that's all I care about your tickets. Like they mean nothing to me. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:29 And I think like the fact that like, well, we can be sad about our tickets while also being sad about terrorism. No, they're not. Tickets don't equal terrorism today. They're not equal things. You have to hold space for two things that are of equal weight. No, they are not. Like people seriously.
Starting point is 00:39:43 When one thing is so heavy you can't hold you need both hands people have people yeah yeah people's reactions to this have been so disappointing to me like and me getting hate for being like get over your tickets get over your tickets like I think um Nikki Glaser was like on her way to Vienna she's like Taylor's number one fan and she has said like she's spending all of her money like till her last dying day on Taylor's tickets. And she was like on the layover when the show got canceled. And she ended up like still going to Vienna
Starting point is 00:40:10 and like hanging out with like Swifties and just like eating food and like enjoying, you know, this fabulous place. And I thought she had like a good, healthy reaction to it. But then, you know, but she's been to a show. Like you'll go, you will go, you will see Taylor. Like it's the best thing on the planet. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:23 And people are like, it's more than just a concert. It's just, no, no, it's just a concert. Like, and it's Taylor. Like it's the best thing on the planet. Yeah. And people are like, it's more than just a concert. It's just, no, no, it's just a concert. Like, and it's amazing. And it's amazing. It's a concert and it's not worth your life, girl. Like it's not worth your fucking life. No, it's not. It's not worth your life.
Starting point is 00:40:34 And it's not worth someone else's either. People's reaction. Cause I guess the people who had tickets weren't at risk really. Cause they would have been in the stadium and it was. Right. No, they were at risk too. Everyone was at risk.
Starting point is 00:40:43 No, but the direct risk in the plan was to target people who didn't have when they heard their show was canceled because of a terror plot their first reaction being like oh my god my ticket instead of oh my god thank god yeah is really like how have we gotten here as a culture like we need to work on it we need to work on ourselves yeah the swifties have swifted too too close to the sun yeah yep yeah are you ready for our next story our third story which is some Simone Biles news because Simone Biles's birth mom is begging Simone for forgiveness she did a huge interview with the Daily Mail oh I have an ick oh this is giving Thomas Markle like the Daily Mail reaching out to somebody's like a strange parent oh no I have ick well so Simone's
Starting point is 00:41:25 birth mother Shannon Biles wants to reconnect and reconcile with the Olympic gymnast uh in a lengthy interview with the Daily Mail on Tuesday she explained how her drug and alcohol abuse cost her her children she recalled losing two of her three daughters first to foster care and then to adoption by her dad and his wife and they brought Simone to live with them in Houston when Simone was six so she talks about her struggle with addiction, which led to significant financial and legal problems saying, quote, it took me six years before I saw my children again. I was respecting my dad to let the kids transition. He felt that was the best thing for them. So she describes like the years in which she wasn't with Simone while Simone was growing up and how her dad wouldn't let
Starting point is 00:42:01 her see the kids while she was like in and out of recovery and still struggling but she says now that she has been clean since 2022 she's managed to stay out of trouble and now works as a cashier she says that though she has Simone's direct number she will not use it she's hoping that Simone reaches out to her she's 27 now she's married I would have liked to be a part of that but I just have to wait mom was 27 I was like wait how Simone's like she said Simone is 27 she's married uh you can't push anybody it hasn't happened yet but I have patience I'm waiting on her nothing she's saying is bad or raising red flags but the fact that she chose she's like I have her number and I won't use it but I'm gonna go to the Daily Mail yeah that gives
Starting point is 00:42:41 me pause and it's a red flag and I I feel, you know, she was on Hoda right after when the today show was in Paris, right after she won like her final, um, medal and Hoda was like, fill in the blanks. Like I wouldn't be here today without blank. Like what is really brought you here? And she's like, I wouldn't be here today without adoption. Like she's so grateful for the life that she had. I think she knows how lucky she is to have gone through foster hair and come out on the other side with her sister. Um, and she it in her documentary. And it's like this crazy thing. I feel like a lot of people don't know about her. I didn't know before I watched a documentary and like it gave me chills to see somebody who had such a rough start in life end up becoming like the greatest
Starting point is 00:43:15 who ever lived. And there has to be more to the story because if, you know, her mom was this like perfect person living, you know, nearby and just working and Simone would have, you know. No, that's not what it was. Of course. That's not even the story up until two years ago when it right now she's clean her life on a better path. Right. So I can't even imagine like what that's like.
Starting point is 00:43:36 And I'm not going to, you know, pretend to know. Yeah. I mean, it's very complicated. I'm sure very difficult for Simone. I can't imagine how that feels. But I do think it's you know she won't text her these things but to go to the Daily Mail it's just like why you know it's it's horrible and Simone like made a choice like early on that she said like
Starting point is 00:43:53 she calls technically her grandfather dad and her grandfather's wife who wasn't um the mother of Simone's mom so it's just like by marriage so she would have been like her step grandma biologically she calls the mom and dad like she has made this choice yeah and I think a lot of that has to do with the dad's decision to not let the mom see the kids for the first six years and that was while probably a really hard choice 100% thing the right thing to do like give them a stable life after having been through this traumatic year um so this is just tough like there's no right answer and Simone whatever choice like she made and it sounds like she's made a choice like that's her choice and it's the right choice yeah 100% are you ready for our next I thought you were gonna say this mobile story that everyone
Starting point is 00:44:31 was talking about she bought an Hermes bag in Paris she did she like made a show me she made well she didn't show us the bag she just showed us like Instagram at after she won her medals like at Hermes and then an orange box what that I need to know what was in the bag how big was the box big it looked like a big sure is a purse yes I need to know what was in the bag. How big was the box? Big. It looked like a big. Are you sure it was a purse? Yes. I think she wrote like, she wrote something bag. She definitely, actually, did she?
Starting point is 00:44:50 I just assumed, but she got a bag. She would have gotten like a belt or a pair of loafers. Neither of the, the box was bigger than that. Oh, wow. And I just, I mean, and then she made a TikTok, like having drinks afterwards. Like she obviously like got drunk with her sister. Like seven rings day.
Starting point is 00:45:02 Her and her sister look exactly like, and they like had champagne and bought bags. I saw that, but i didn't see that they bought bags at her me's like i hope that the air me sales people like opened up the fucking vault and weren't giving her whatever she want though i have heard it's easier to get them in paris internationally and i hope she got like this most sickening bag yeah she deserves it treat yourself like a gold bag totally that's really cute yeah are you ready for our next story yeah a little summer in the sun news because it's swirly summer's finally made the news it's swirly summer for jeff bezos and lauren sanchez and the revolving door of their yacht has now welcomed leonardo dicaprio victoria charetti katie perry and orlando bloom is vict Victoria Chiaretti, Katy Perry, and Orlando Bloom. Is Victoria Chiaretti the young thing he's working with?
Starting point is 00:45:46 Yes, the current young thing. So at the same time or? Yes. You know, I feel like they like host every week, like new people come, the oldies go. Rich people love to do this thing where they invite influential, cool, successful people that they know from different walks of life. And they have like salons where they're like, let's have have interesting conversations like I've been weirdly invited to like a couple of them as like the young influencer and like it's literally so fun can't get invited to them
Starting point is 00:46:11 enough and like I could see Jeff Bezos being like you know inviting you know people from politics people from Hollywood people from tech and being like let's have a conversation yeah I think Lauren is probably friends with Katie. Also, I saw that, you know, she pilots helicopters. She like has her pilot's license. Who? Lauren Sanchez. So she picked up Katie.
Starting point is 00:46:32 No, she like took Orlando and Katie like on her helicopter. I think they like jumped out of the helicopter. Okay. So like that is how like very rich people die because it happens all the time. I think it happened with one of the Kennedys. Like they think they can do anything because they're so rich and they like learn to fly. And before they're
Starting point is 00:46:46 ready, they just like take off and kill everyone in the plane. Like I, that's like a rich person trope. I'm personally not a fan of. Okay. That's fair. I thought it was cool. No, Amelia Earhart up there. By the way, let's not talk about Amelia Earhart. Amelia Nicole Sanchez. Because Amelia Earhart, like while she was like amazing for women, she's like kind of famous for failing and she literally crashed. So thank you for proving my point i feel like this happens all the time you hear about like in south carolina like you know small two-person plane crashes like
Starting point is 00:47:12 thank god everyone survives you always see videos like plane crashes on the beach and it's like a plane owned by like a rich person who wanted to learn how to fly and it's like one of those planes with like a propeller and they're like learning to fly on it and they like go and kill people like seriously stop why don't you leave the leave the flying up to the pilots? I know. I don't get why that is like, okay, I've made all this money. I've accomplished these things in life. Like now I need to fly a plane. There is a certain.
Starting point is 00:47:32 It's very Prince Philip. Jack. Yes. Yes. But he was at least like in the army. So you learn how to really fly. But there is like a monetary value. I'm not sure what it is.
Starting point is 00:47:40 But like once your bank account hits it, like the bank pulls you aside and they sign you up for pilot lessons. Like, I don't know what it is. And it's really mostly hits it like the bank pulls you aside and they sign you up for pilot lessons like I don't know what it is and it's really mostly men but look love to see Lauren like becoming a rich man it's so weird I don't like it yeah I don't like it either but I actually think that her can you start a list I think that her pilot interest like predates her relationship with Jeff and her billionaire actually might have helped them connect because you know he's really into flight as well what's this list called celebrities who interest like predates her relationship with Jeff and her billionaire might have helped them connect because you know he's really into flight as well what's this list called celebrities who fly no rich people tropes that turdy dislikes I'll just do rich people tropes and that it can include both
Starting point is 00:48:16 I'll do likes and dislikes okay so well I only have like dislikes shockingly dislikes obviously no you like the salon oh okay you just said okay so interesting people salon that's likes dislikes is like randomly becoming pilots for no reason and two like when they cosplay being poor so like i don't want to say like not ballerina farm but like when they get a trailer no not like that who was living in a trailer recently or like i like shiny things but i'd marry you with paper rings like that whole shtick like taylor straff you could buy probably the nicest ring anybody could buy we did a story someone like moved to the trailer oh no no no no it was an rv tailoring travis like vacationed in like bon jovi or lenny kravitz he has this like famous rv that he like takes to the bahamas i

Starting point is 00:49:45 No, but it's very, yeah. So it was very contentious because of Candy spelling. And I think they like cut her out. Cut out Tori? I think that's what's so like, so I don't think she's cosplaying poor. I think she actually just might be poor. Why did they cut her out?
Starting point is 00:49:57 It was, I remember when we were growing up, it was on the cover of every tabloid magazine. It was like Jen and Ben, Aniston and Pitt, and then Tori spellinglling and the money candy. Imagine being named candy. No. And in 2023, an insider claim,
Starting point is 00:50:10 candy spelling found a house for Tori and her grandchildren, but Tori refused to move in following backlash for allegedly ignoring her daughter's financial problems and unstable home situation. A source claimed that she actually did try to help. Right. And he spent hours on the phone trying to find a house however tori declined to move in because she wanted to live in a certain place well i think all the money went to candy and candy and tori do not have a good relationship it's like that's a documentary i can really use yeah especially if you're just hearing that song because i wasn't interested until i was like wait this girl was in
Starting point is 00:50:40 like the biggest song what did aaron spelling create like what's that that's what like and he was and all of our favorite w no like every show that we watched growing up it said created by aaron spelling and he was like a the biggest showrunner seventh heaven he was the biggest showrunner at a time where like tv when you had a show that took off like syndication seinfeld money like it was it was hundreds of millions now if you have a successful show, it's like. Charlie's Angels. Oh, wow. Yeah. No, he's major.
Starting point is 00:51:09 Look up his net worth. Someone. Well, he's deceased. No, but like what was his estate worth? Worth at death. Someone already looked it up. $500 million. Right.
Starting point is 00:51:17 And then someone bought his house recently. House. Who bought it? What happened to his mansion? Yeah. And i feel like they had a reality show yeah that the house was on oh it was listed but i'm not seeing who bought it damn what was the story jeff b rich people oh yeah yeah so let's get back to the story so this week he brought out katie perry and orlando bloom and leo and his new lady love they went out for lunch like on on shore came back to the boat and we're having a good good old time it sounds so fun like i'm dying to go please invite me yeah and i'm not desperate and they've been out there like all summer summer they're having a swirly summer they are having a swirly they probably extended they were having such a good time like you know
Starting point is 00:52:06 let's extend yeah i love that where's the boat currently in sardinia italy please invite me yeah well good times gt are you ready for our fifth and final story i am bowen yang says the worst host on snl made multiple cast members cry so snlL, sorry, Bowen Yang, who's on SNL, did a game of truth or kink on Watch What Happens Live on Monday. And Andy Cohen asked him to share the worst behavior he has ever witnessed without disclosing the host's name. Yeah, spoiler alert, we don't know who it is. But he said this man, this person, this host, made multiple cast members cry on Wednesday during the table read because he hated the ideas. Terrible.
Starting point is 00:52:44 He didn't tell us who it is, but he did give us a little bit of a clue because why everybody got so upset was because he didn't like their ideas. And that means this is someone like in comedy that people really respect. Like if, cause I'm thinking, you know, I feel like Bowen Yang has spoken that he didn't like love working with Elon Musk. If Elon Musk said, I don't like this comedy idea, he'd be like, okay, go build a spaceship. Like, yeah, yeah it's not offensive i feel like it's like a dave chappelle like someone who you want their approval of when it comes to comedy yeah i kind of want to go look at all the old hosts like from the last like two years to see i feel like if we look at names like we could maybe sense yeah and who's like you know like a chris rock or an adam sandler like kind of snl famed people
Starting point is 00:53:28 i feel like recently there was like a couple people who were like very serious and you could feel like they didn't like it i also don't watch that much so like i'm not able to really get a read you know list of saturday night live guests but like i don't need from the start of the beginning right there's like 45 seasons yeah well what's the most recent season like 41 or 40 didn't they just have their snl 40 party there are 49 seasons yeah snl 49 i guess i'm going to the master list okay kristin wig you're by the way here i have it i have it okay pete davidson definitely not no bad bunny definitely not nate bargatze no Timothee Chalamet. No.

Starting point is 00:54:33 Jacob Elordi. And he said him, right? Oh, did he? Yeah, this man. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No to Jacob Elordi. Ayo, no. Shane Gillis?
Starting point is 00:54:44 No, I don't think so. Okay. I don't think he came back for his redemption and made everyone cry. Sidney Sweeney, no. Josh Brolin, no. Shane Gillis? No, I don't think so. Okay. I don't think he like came back for his redemption and made everyone cry. Sidney Sweeney, no. Josh Brolin, no. Rami Youssef, no. Kristen Wiig, no. Ryan Gosling?
Starting point is 00:54:54 No. No. Dula Peep, no. Maya Rudolph, no. Jake Gyllenhaal? No. But I can see him being mean, but I can see people caring. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:04 That was it. I think he would just want to get along. That this season what about the prior season oh did they say last two years they didn't say but bowen's been like he didn't say this season right okay snl 48 of all time they could miles teller no brendan gleason or like kanye meg the stallion yeah maybe jack Miles Teller. No. Brendan Gleeson. Or like Kanye. Meg Thee Stallion. Yeah, maybe. Jack Harlow. If he doesn't tell us like what year, it's really not helpful. I think it was like someone like either like Kanye or someone like a serious actor that
Starting point is 00:55:35 like is. Scary. The problem is it's like, well, the stuff is not funny. So then what do you do? Right. Right. No, but like what's worse than like having an idea that you think is funny and good and like seriously like in front of a room full of like your peers like i could never i could never
Starting point is 00:55:48 like seriously you're so vulnerable when you're sharing your ideas so for that like i guess as writers are like really the bravest of us right but the thing is that no one tells them they're bad and then they do go and do them now i want to ask you a question i have submitted a story and it's this is the second day in a row where like you literally i'm like oh this is it this is it because like i don't really we were sitting on the couch my text i didn't text you yeah yeah i i see like we never really no no we literally decided we were choosing it no we just did we not decide that no no we did like you were like okay yeah no you literally remember it going down but i guess we'll talk about it tomorrow okay i think if i just i just want to make a note like second day in a row you ignoring me this was a different case of that yesterday I
Starting point is 00:56:28 genuinely forgot today I thought her outcome was different and if it's still big news tomorrow happy to talk about it yeah I just want to say noted great was she silent great go get your notebook yeah noted no I don't need to I just i made a record of it right now noted go get your notebook out thank you i'll get my composition notebook noted now today is fabulous because we're here and alive but it's also fabulous because it's wednesday which means it's dear toasters day and you know dear toasters it's kind of a big deal everyone wants in on it and everybody wants to swirl his advice what are the stories think about this not only that about that state farm was like listen we know deer toasters is kind of beloved by everyone except for jackie and they know that jackie loves it so much and they want they want in on it so state farm is kind of the lead sponsor of deer toasters you know which is great because
Starting point is 00:57:17 i love farming so and it's giving you know it's giving to your farmer and i'm your local farmer and jackie and i are adults right i think we can unfortunately agree to that most days and it says this in the copy state farm must have got this wrong and said as our toasters know i just turned 30 which i don't know why they would write that yeah that's weird they were trying to hurt me um jacks and i and they're reading this i i didn't say when they're paying like they can make you say anything jacks and i are loving being at this amazing stage of life in our our 30s. We really are though, where we get to experience huge milestones of adulthood
Starting point is 00:57:47 right along with our listeners, right along with each other. So milestones like having kids, starting businesses, making a first big adult purchase, like buying a house or a car, are major. And as we've said before,
Starting point is 00:57:57 when you get a new car, a new home, it's the first thing you might find yourself saying, like how, how, look at me, go me. But the first thing you should be saying is,
Starting point is 00:58:04 like a good neighbor, State Farm is there. So State Farm is there. With the coverage that you need for your car, for your home, even boats, motorcycles, RVs, other things. You know, you can categorize it under things in which that matter to you. With the State Farm agent, you know, someone is there to help you choose the coverage you need. With so many coverage options, it feels good knowing you can find what fits for you. And when you need ways to get help, State Farm gives you options there too. In person or on the phone with your local agent or on statefarm.com with their award-winning app. State Farm lets you do things your way. That's what's so great about State Farm. Whether you're a Jax or a Claude, you know, you live the fast life, high pace, you know, texting things, you know, always on the go on your phone. You could chat
Starting point is 00:58:39 with a State Farm agent via their mobile app, via their website, you know, live in the high life. Perhaps you're more ballerina farm jacks coded slower like a conversation with a friend you can talk to your agent on the phone or you can talk to your agent irl which is so analog but that's very jacks yeah so in honor of being a good neighbor connection oh let's talk more about that why because things get lost in translation dirty they do oh it's nothing like a face-to-face uh there's i disagree there's much a lot of things like a face-to-face like perhaps talking to your safe farm agent on their mobile app great and that's why state farm works for all of us
Starting point is 00:59:15 right it's extremely inclusive so in honor of being a good neighbor jacks and i are going to take a second to compliment each other on one thing that they're absolutely crushing it in terms of adulthood because just like a state farm agent we're here for each other okay compliment me compliment me okay what am i doing like well in my adult life what are you i'll say this oh wow i didn't even have to think and you do you are and this is a surprise to nobody like an amazing mom really crushing it on all fronts firing on all cylinders constantly that is so so wonderful thank you you are an amazing auntie really just such a every day where's codgers sleeping what's codgers doing in codgers room and just uh everything you could want in your little ones auntie so there you have it just
Starting point is 00:59:58 another day of jacks and i being good neighbors to each other in this crazy world of adulthood and remember when you're hitting those larger adulthood milestones like buying a new home or car you need help protecting the things that matter most so remember to say like a good in this crazy world of adulthood. And remember, when you're hitting those larger adulthood milestones, like buying a new home or car, you need help protecting the things that matter most. So remember to say, like a good neighbor, State Farm is there. Okay, ready for Dear Toasters? Our weekly advice segment.
Starting point is 01:00:13 If you ever want to write in to us, you know, you need advice from the Swerleys, email us, deartoasters at gmail.com or head over to our website, thetoastpodcast.com. Scroll down, there's a little submission box. Both submission ways are completely anonymous, so don't worry about that. Dear Toasters, can you help me with a major situation between me and my boyfriend we are taking the next step and moving in together next month and while discussing
Starting point is 01:00:31 the layout of our new apartment he suggested that we downgrade to a twin xl bed his reasoning is that we um can develop a closer connection while we sleep he also said that he read somewhere that this helps couples grow intimately he also brought up the nostalgia card while we were freshmen in college we used to share a twin xl bed I reminded him that we were teenagers back then, and now we are fully grown adults with better sleeping arrangements. We're big girls now. In our separate apartments, we both have queen beds, so it's not like we don't have a bed to sleep on. I'm just so confused by this request. I'm actually baffled by it. I used to think he was joking, but he is really persistent and even sends me twin XL beds that we can buy.
Starting point is 01:01:00 The final straw came yesterday when we went to the apartment to get measurements. He did point out how much more room in the bedroom there would be if we went with a twin XL bed I'm wondering if I should even move in with him at all he just won't drop it and I almost have had enough what do I do by the way that's this to me I know we try we say every time like you know we can't think of any every red flag is like so crazy because my advice always ends up being break up with your boyfriend seriously your boyfriend's a crazy person like who on earth would suggest a twin XL bed no it makes no sense plus you have two queens you can make it about money like you don't want to buy another bed the idea of like being intimate while you sleep is like nice for five minutes but then like we can cuddle
Starting point is 01:01:38 and we can go our separate ways that can happen in a twin XL like some nights you don't want to cuddle like it's just I understand what he's saying. Like it will force you to be close all the time, but we shouldn't be close all the time. Not, we should do nothing all the time. We need to have options, especially when we sleep. No, no, no. I can't even like get into the mindset of somebody who would suggest this. And when I said we should do nothing all the time, I mean, there is nothing that we should be doing at all times. Yeah. Yeah. No. And moving in with someone is amazing, right? Like it's a huge step in a relationship, but people don't talk enough about how like if you're used to having a lot of time alone and then you're never alone like that's a shift and having like I don't know your corner
Starting point is 01:02:11 of the bed like we can't even have that now he kind of sounds like a nightmare and you absolutely need to have this in the bud like this is not normal two adults sleeping in a bed at the smallest bed that is acceptable for two grown adults to sleep in is a full. No, I feel like he heard this on like some podcast that like gives, I know I don't want to like denigrate humor, but by saying this was one of his theories, because honestly I don't think it was, but I feel like it's a podcast that like attempts to give relationship advice in like quirky out of the box ways. And I'm just letting you know, like they made this up out of their butt, whatever study he showed you that it like makes it better. Find a study that it makes it worse.
Starting point is 01:02:46 Like that's the amazing thing about studies you heard on your podcast that it will make you fucking hate each other. That's the amazing thing about studies. You can always conveniently find a study that supports your thesis. Like these studies that are always released, like, you know, having steak will make you redhead. Like they seriously make stuff up. It's amazing. They literally once did a study where they said that that lucky charms are healthier than steak and they actually did they put that on the food pyramid so if they can say that they can say anything you guys should go to a hotel for a weekend stay in a king bed and all of a sudden your queen beds will feel really small love that perspective yeah no this obviously cannot stand nip it in the bud nip it in the bud like it's just not going to
Starting point is 01:03:23 happen so the movers will be bringing your king queen bed, even if you have to hire your own movers. You need to take control of the move now and coordinate with the company. Even if he buys a twin bed and puts it in your room. So then you'll bring the queen into the room and then you'll say, you know what? I feel like we'd have a lot more room if we got rid of the twin. No, no, no. He brings a twin bed. Buy another one.
Starting point is 01:03:39 I guess we're sleeping in separate beds. You really wanted the dorm life? Right. Let's get a roommate too. Nostalgia. Nostalgia. Let's get a roommate. Nostalgia. Oh my God. Sicko. Yeah. All right. Next up. Hey, Swirlies. in separate beds you really wanted the dorm life right let's get a roommate nostalgia let's get a roommate nostalgia oh my god sicko yeah all right next up hey swirlies i'm a mom of a toaster and i need some help important context i'm really introverted i work all day long talking to
Starting point is 01:03:55 people so it's really draining for me i've gone to the same hairstylist that i love for 10 years my appointments but appointments are about two hours every month typically i spend about 30 minutes of this appointment chatting catching up while he's working on my hair, and the rest of the time he spends doing business in other parts of the salon and I'm waiting for my color to set. Just last week, he moved to a new space. It's an eight by eight space all by himself. He's no longer in a salon. The problem now is that he has nowhere to go while my color is setting. He's super chatty, wants to talk the entire time. He's so nice. He does a great job with my hair, but I cannot talk to him for this long every single month.
Starting point is 01:04:26 I tried looking at my phone, but he just kept talking. What do I do? Do I go sit in my car while my hair color sets? Do I tell him I need quiet time? Do I find a new hairstylist? Please help. Well, I feel like you're right to like, want to take these two hours per month for yourself.
Starting point is 01:04:39 And if going to his new studio is not a pleasant experience, then like you don't go there anymore. You could try one more time and maybe like put AirPods in and listen, say, oh, I have to listen to something. Just like make sure to shut, make like, make clear that the conversation is over now. I'm listening to this, the toast and see what happens. But I do think like if you like the salon that you were at, you were in a good flow. Like it's not the craziest thing to just stay there and get a new colorist. Yeah. This is really tough. Like what's more important to you, those two hours of peace or the exact way that he's doing your hair? Can someone else do it? I am not an introvert at all, but like this to me sounds like a nightmare too. It's not even so much about being introverted. It's just about like, God, can I get a fucking
Starting point is 01:05:16 moment of peace? And Jackie's right. Like you have to weigh what's more important to you, but also like I'm of the mind where it's like, I don't want this person to talk to me. Right. But now that we're in this enclosed space, like I would feel weird about not talking mind where it's like, I don't want this person to talk to me. Right. But now that we're in this enclosed space, like I would feel weird about not talking. So it's like, what's worse, like feeling awkward for the 90 minutes or talking for the 90 minutes. Like to me,
Starting point is 01:05:33 they're both horrible. I think you need to go to a new salon. Like seriously. And it sounds like you liked your routine of going to the, to the salon. Like, it's not just about getting your hair cut and colored. It's also about like those two hours of swirly time for you. And if you want to do it in the salon with other people and you know drinks and this and
Starting point is 01:05:48 that then then you should do that because it's it's like your time yeah but breaking up with a hairstylist is also really awkward and if you like found out that you like go back to the salon that like you guys met at it's tough it's tough why I feel like when hairstylists break out on their own like it's hard to convince their clientele to come with them like it's not a given no no no it's not but she went so like she went you know what i mean yeah that's the hard part it's like you staying would have been completely acceptable yeah but you took the jump and now like you're in the water yeah like but there's nothing like a good ghost situation really can't fix i feel like people in the comments might be able to help you. Because this just sounds like an eternal issue.
Starting point is 01:06:27 And I feel like we have a lot of listeners who are hairstylists. And like how do you know when it's time to talk when it's time to be quiet? Yeah. For me, I feel like we get our hair done with mahogany. And she has her own salon. And I feel like she really lets the person in the chair lead. And I'm so chatty. And I like her and think she's interesting.
Starting point is 01:06:41 And she does like a lot of cool people's hair. So I'm always like, what's going on? And also, we just get hair cut and blow dry so when you don't have to sit in like the blow dryers on we can't speak and then when it's off we're talking like there's not that much talking and she does all of our hair so she's always asking about like the other sisters like it's we're in a unique situation because we also don't color our hair twice a year you get your hair done once every month that's the thing when you when you color your hair and that's why I think people have really strong important relationships with their hair
Starting point is 01:07:08 styles more so than people who get the quarterly cut you know yeah every month that's tough yeah that's tough all right third and final do toasters hey swirlies i recently decided to get a financial planner to help me and my husband book our retirement manage our investments yada yada yada it was my idea but my husband took over the execution because his job is less demanding. He has more free time and he's good at getting things done. We started using a guy, one of his family members uses. We really like him. We met him together, filled out the paperwork together, told him our goals. And ever since the initial call and the transfers of our money, this guy only contacts my husband. He calls my husband, emails him updates. And I told my husband that it really bothers me. And my husband totally agreed, started CCing me
Starting point is 01:07:43 and his responses even has said, please include my wife in all your email updates however this guy continues to only contact my husband in the most recent email he asked my husband um if some recent investments were okay and then proceeded to say send my hello to your wife is it just me or is this incredibly demeaning this guy does well for us he comes highly recommended but it's really starting to annoy me i also don't want to make the guy who handles my literal future angry please help do i say something do i look for someone else do i do nothing am i being dramatic not that this should matter because he should include me no matter what but i also make more money than my husband so more of the money we transfer to him is from my paycheck yeah so unacceptable this guy is not working for you like it's not working out because if he doesn't
Starting point is 01:08:21 understand like one it's your money you're the actual boss and he's talking to someone that's not the your assistant like he's not it's just not working out there are plenty of other people I would not be sending your money to someone who doesn't even consider you when you work hard for your money like it's it didn't work out it's time to find a new planner plenty of people can probably do what he's doing um I would and it just doesn't speak to like a good character that he can't find it in himself to include you on the emails when it's mostly your money. Like it's not okay at any level, whether or not you're just, you know, a stay at home mom. Right. But the fact that like your primary earner, like this is so demeaning, so rude. And it's also like,
Starting point is 01:08:59 Oh, you don't understand instruction then. How can you be good at other areas of your job? If you don't understand that you need to include this person on an email you must be fucking up elsewhere I agree like this is a red flag to the point where it's a fireball offense and if you're doing it as like oh no I understood I'm just um subverting you because I don't think that women should be on these emails well then you certainly have to go you know Jackie and I just had an experience with this and we can speak to this because like we're women who own our own business we do well we're earners in our families and when we were booking our house for the Hamptons, the previous house,
Starting point is 01:09:28 not this one, um, we took charge, obviously, like if we made it for our husbands to book a house, like we never would have made it out to the Hamptons for swirly summer. There would be no swirly summer. We found it fun.
Starting point is 01:09:36 Like we were excited to take, we didn't take it on like begrudgingly. We were like, no, don't get out. Ben was trying to help him like get the hell out. Um, and when,
Starting point is 01:09:42 once we found the house, we were contacting with, with the previous landlord and he was like who's gonna be on the lease and Jackie was like busy that day so I was like I'll do it it literally doesn't matter like we're all paying for the house like we're all contributing but like whoever's name is on the paperwork means nothing it's not like you know something happens you're gonna run away yeah and I was like okay just me like here's my information name address email and he was like will anyone else be on the lease I'm like no no I think you
Starting point is 01:10:01 were like oh Jackie yeah yeah my sister no I said no he's okay so then he calls and he's like actually he had his like agent call and was like you know he's feeling uncomfortable about it just being you like he wants someone else and I knew what that subtext was it was like he wants your husband on yeah so of course I said sure here's my sister I'm like oh you don't want one woman here's two yeah and they both shut up like and we literally had like the same name same address same everything and I was like same person for like the money I was like yeah no you want two here these two big women and I was so offended like seriously I was like I don't even I don't even want to rent this house but it was so hard to find a house I just shut up um so I understand it's so unacceptable it's
Starting point is 01:10:36 so rude Jackie's 100% right and you know I hate to like you know cancel a good thing you know give him an opportunity say like whatever yeah you said you did and not only that well your husband said it if you had said like listen this isn't working out because you like refuse to include me as like a even think of me but she's right like this is a person who has access to all of your money you don't want to make them angry in the slightest you gotta go there are a lot of financial planners business managers who do a great job good for you for making more than your husband good for you for getting to a place where you like have investments it's not working out it's not a fit that happens the odds that the first person you go to for anything is
Starting point is 01:11:07 going to work out completely is very slim so it's totally fine that it didn't on the he's either intentionally shutting you out because he's like small-minded and has some regressive idea of how the world works even though it's your fucking money or he cannot follow a simple instruction which does not bode well for his acumen. Both bad potential scenarios that you've got to get yourself out of. I don't know which one's worse, honestly. You just love to see a woman in business thriving, though. Good for you.
