It's Jackson, Claude and neighbor show the fast five things you need to know.
We'll start your day off, swirly. It's the toast.
I sound amazing.
Welcome back to The Toast and happy Wednesday.
Today is the epitome of goodness, and I'm so excited to emerge myself in this experience with my sister, co-host, and friend whose voice seems to return.
It's Jacqueline Follet.
Are you excited to go on a cojourner Fred with me?
I mean, it's the epitome of joy, so why wouldn't I?
I don't know why you wouldn't.
My voice is much better than it was yesterday,
but I do still think it's a dream day for you because I do have to keep it to a minimum.
You know, I can't just be.
We wouldn't want you to overextend.
Long-winded.
So I am going to do the stories.
I am going to do the stories because I know that also took away from your dream day.
Definitely.
Like manual labor on my dream day?
That's not a dream.
So maybe today will be more of a dream for you.
I am feeling like I'm in a dream like state.
I dream like sequence.
Yes, I love the word sequence.
Well, we're both like I've been using the word sequence a lot ever since like I started
playing Majong so consistently.
I haven't maged in weeks.
Oh, girl, me and my daytime crew, we do not fuck around.
Actually, though, me and my daytime crew, you know, if somebody needs to bop out, like we
have a couple of alternates.
And how do they feel about being alternates?
Well, so.
And being called alternates on a very popular podcast.
They're grateful for the experience.
if I'm being honest, my daytime crew,
it's kind of like a random assembling of four people
who like, you know, have flexible jobs.
Some don't work. Some are on maternity leave.
Came together. Against all odds.
Yeah, so no one wanted to play.
And then we started becoming like so popular.
We have lunch and we, you know, everyone's kind of jealous
of what goes on that like, oh, I'll play.
And it's like, well, where were you when we were putting the group together?
So I think the alternates that we do have are extremely grateful to even be
alternate.
Like that's how in demand that we are.
If I'm being honest.
But today, we're actually taking Maja off.
I said you could sub in one of the alternates for me.
I can't imagine.
I have my EMG.
My long-awaited, this is like a five years in the process.
I'm finally getting my nerve test on my thumb.
And I'm hoping we will finally find out why my thumb stopped working.
I'm excited.
That's very exciting.
Exciting.
Exciting.
It excites me.
Information excites me.
I know.
I fear that the EMG will tell me like that I have a tendon issue and I have to get surgery.
And it's like, am I really for the first time in my whole life going to get surgery because of my hand, like my thumb?
No, I feel like.
are important. I feel like you wait for it to get worse.
Oh, you think? But what if it becomes irreparable? And how much longer? I've literally
waited almost three years. Like I haven't had a thumb for three years. And I've been talking
about it and like nobody seems to care. They're like, you're fine. You have nine other fingers.
I mean, we all have our struggles. Like my pinky toe is really going into my fourth toe.
It really hurts. And like, it used to only happen.
Like when you wear shoes? Yeah, it used to only happen if I hadn't gotten a pet,
a while my nails were too long. So I was like up time to get a pedicure. So you're saying the
nail is going into the skin of your fourth toe or the whole toe now? Like the toe and there's not a lot of,
I keep my toenails clipped. I got a pedicure and still the next day. And then I have some shoes
where it hurts more than others, but it's becoming an everyday issue in my life. And I'm just
going to keep walking the path. Well, that's how I feel about my coxidinia. Like it's just
something I have to live with. I mean my sciatica, you are when you're with me and you see me
get out of a chair. You think that something. That's a face she makes. I like can't get up and you think like,
oh my gosh, is it flaring up? Like, no, this is just my life now. So I get that there are definitely
ailments as women of a certain age. Like we just live with. But I think if I have the opportunity
to fix my thumb, that's something like later me will say thanks for doing. I'm hoping I can find,
I might get into like some Eastern medicine alternative treatments before I go for the surge.
I think that's good. Also talk to chat. I was chatting hardcore with child. But you can't like
tech tell chat chat can't tell you what to do until you have your diagnosis from EMG so chat is
really because chat told me like chat's waiting at eMG a thousand percent i will upload them but then i was
also talking to chat last night because i told you that like a week and a half ago while putting on pants
i sprained my ankle and it's like how long does an ankle get sprained for like i've got tingling
oh my god every time i like twist my ankle a certain way i'm like blinded with pain um and so chat was
and then i was wondering do you think that any of these issues are connected because i told you
I also threw out my neck.
So I have a bad neck, a bad foot, and a bad thumb.
And I was like, it's all on the left side of my body.
So I was like, chat, or anything is connected?
It actually feels like my body is breaking down.
And chat was like, well, no, I don't think that any of them are connected.
So that made me feel better.
That is better.
It's not a larger issue in the cogers, wojers left side of business.
I guess we'll find out.
At the EMJ.
Okay, stay tuned.
Watch this space.
Stay tuned for that.
Are the results immediate or like they have to be?
I have no idea.
Like studied and a different appointment for them to share them with you.
Oh, bitch.
Like the way medical professionals refuse to give you your own fucking information,
they better FedEx me the results ASAP.
Don't get me started on the health care system.
I won't actually.
That's so not what I want to talk about.
What I do want to talk about is what's going down today.
It's broken.
Absolutely.
What I want to talk about is what's going down today.
We have Love Island, Casa Moore, episode three, recap.
We have Taylor Swift, of course, like showing her face.
Lots to discuss there.
We've got two positively swirly girls.
I have decided, made another sort of administrative decision.
Dear Toasters will be tomorrow.
And I think until Love Island is over, programming update,
Deer Toasters will be moved to Thursdays because we have a TV recap every single day,
except Thursday because there's no episodes on Wednesdays.
So we'll see you guys Thursday, DTQ.
Sorry, please.
just please just be cool with it.
Yeah, no, it is what it is.
Plus, without my voice, like, we have to conserve our battery.
How can you give a stern talking to to the DTQ?
It's so true.
It's so true.
And you guys deserve my best.
Absolutely.
Oh, so Deer Toasters are about to be fed on Patreon this month.
I don't want to spoil what we're doing.
I don't want to spoil what we're doing, but it's in the Deer's Hoster's family.
It's actually.
I feel like you could spoil it.
Like, it's called Building Hype.
Okay, but we're recording it tomorrow.
like I we are doing a dear toasters where we go through submissions from early days of toast like
2019 we give our takes now on what they would be and then we will live listen to what we said then
and see how different we are if we agree with what we said then it's going to be so different because like
i know back then we were toxic wives and now we're toxic moms like we are the mother-in-law is
that people are writing in about no and just like life wises you up like i'm still thinking about our
here to her toaster from last week where that girl said her husband was gay and we were like
stay with him of course that's his kind of advice you can only find here at the toes because you know
every other show oh he cheated on you he's gay dump him no and then it's like you deserve it's like yeah
all those things are true but like let's do a practical application of policy here okay so leave him
you're also then leaving your half of your custody of your kids to this guy like we're very
realistic and I know some people don't like our advice but like sorry this is what your great grandmother would
tell you. And I feel like we should always be listening to our elders. We are the church elders.
Yeah, no, and of course, like, if we got that Deer Toasters like years ago before we had kids,
we'd be like, what do you mean? Your husband's cheating on you and he's gay? Like, goodbye.
Double homicide. It's not so simple. Nothing is simple. And that's what Deer Toasters is all about
exploring the complexities of humanity. And that's what we will be doing both on Thursday and on Thursday's
Patreon episode. So make sure to head over to patreon.com slash a toast, which if you're new here is
our subscription. So if you go to patreon.com slash the toast, you can join our premium tier,
which is $7.99. That's the OG price. It's never been raised. $7.99 for five extra episodes
per month. Those episodes range from podcasts to vlogs to videos. I just did a big hair
tutorial. We do lots of Q&As. We do more in-depth stuff. We get all the ancillary supplemental
characters like Olivia Trout, Margot. They all come on there. All of our birth stories are on there.
It's a great way to get extra content for when you're bored and also support the toast for the
price of a coffee. Actually, I don't even think coffee costs $7.99 these days. Nothing to
except Patreon.
The price of A Boot is staggering.
The price of A Boot is fucking staggering.
Yeah, I was actually just at dinner with like a newish friend.
And so we were just like swapping life stories.
And we were talking about the toast.
And like she wanted to hear like the whole story.
That sounds like such a fun dinner.
I love when people ask about me.
Yeah.
No, so I was telling her like the whole story.
She was like, how did you even start the show?
So I started like, you know, with the breath and everything.
And I was talking about how we started the toast.
And I was saying how like Patreon was just like the big.
It just changed our lives.
And like we really did.
We love the Patreon.
We share also this show we talk a lot about our personal lives,
but we also talk about celebrities.
But like when there's more to talk about our personal lives,
like we do that on the Patreon,
it's just very personal to us.
And we love it and we love the community.
I was just reminded in telling the story,
like how much I love the Patreon community.
Patreon was there for us when no one else was.
When no one else was.
It was the first time we ever were able to monetize our show,
which was very exciting.
And I feel like a lot of the big streamers
or like trying to infringe on Patreon.
They're all launching their own subscriptions.
Like we are so motherfucking loyal to Patreon.
We will never leave.
We'll never leave Patreon.
We'll be the last ones on the Titanic.
And also if you've never heard of Patreon,
you're probably like, oh, I don't know how to use that.
Like what?
It's just a website.
You could download the app if you want,
but just go to patreon.
com slash the toast.
You make a login and then all the content is there.
So if you've never heard of Patreon,
it's not like this newfound thing that it's inaccessible.
It's just go to the website.
And then you get access to all the old stuff.
So I think now there's probably like over 400 episodes.
Yeah.
We've been doing.
five episodes a month for almost nine years.
Do the math.
Five times 12, 60, time nine.
5.40?
What is nine times six?
There's a five in front of it, right?
54.
Okay, there's a five, 500 episodes.
That's the first time, like, probably since sixth grade that, like, my times tables
have come in handy.
Oh, I, you know what I was doing yesterday?
Percentages.
Remember how you used to, like, blank over blank equals X over 100.
Remember that?
X over 100?
Blank over, ratios.
Ratios.
I needed to find out the ratio.
And so in my mind, I'm like, Blake over, Blake,
and then you divide 100 by the top number.
Yes, yep, and then divide across.
Yep.
You know what?
I actually, 26% from math, like the practical application of policy,
things I actually use in my everyday life.
I do the ratios a lot.
I'm always trying to figure out like percentages.
Yeah, no, that's what I needed a pen and paper,
but I was able to do it in my head.
Something I never used ever again.
My last great cell was hanging on.
That I probably couldn't even tell you,
like I could not probably do it right now.
was like long division.
Remember?
It was like under the little square.
Yeah, no, I haven't done that in a while.
And I have no idea how to.
But like the calculator app on my phone can't do that ratio for me in the way that
cross.
No, but in the past I've just been like to Google.
But like your calculator app can do long division.
That's why you haven't done long division.
Right.
But like they don't know how to see it like I see it.
Yeah.
My ratios.
And ratio like means something so different these days.
It does.
But it stems from the same thing.
Correct.
So you do still use those tools.
Yeah.
What else can I tell you?
Oh, so like Ben went to a James Taylor concert last night.
I know he called me from the concert and then was talking to me.
He did?
He did.
We were working on something.
And what the fuck are you working on?
Well, we're working on a lot of things.
things but yesterday specifically we were working on my car oh oh yeah and he's talking to me and he knows
i didn't have a voice because i spoke to him earlier in the day and i'm like at a whisper yeah he was like
i'm at the james taylor concert i'm like you called the girl with no voice from the james taylor
concert and he's been like pestering me to go with him ben and his family are obsessed with james taylor
and like yeah i know a couple of the hits but like i really don't need to go to the concert it's like
what we have to get a babysitter like i'll stay home you guys go have fun and ben has just been like
bothering me about coming. I think he also got me a ticket just being like in case you want to come.
He really thought I would come. And I just didn't. Like I was not, you know when you're just not
going to something? I'm like, I'm sorry, I'm not fucking going. Happy birthday Bruce. Sorry, I'm not going.
Like it wasn't even his birthday. It was like three days ago. This is 50th birthday.
It was, I saw videos like no shade to James Taylor because like I think he's got a really powerful.
No shade. No tea. No tea, no shade. It just looked like a little like lackluster and I love him.
like he barely played the hits and I just like I was so happy with my decision like I was really
really happy but even James Taylor at his best I've seen fire and I've seen rain I've seen sunny days
that I thought would never end I don't really know who James Taylor is okay but you know a
couple of thongs ready you know songs winters thongs winters spring summer fall
Oh, you've got to do is call.
In my mind, I've gone to Carolina.
Do you know that one?
No.
Less popular.
Do you know fire and rain?
Sing it.
I've seen fire and I've seen rain.
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end.
I've seen lonely times.
By the you have.
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend.
Do you remember that turnt movie we used to watch us kids called Camp?
where it was like all these turn hormonal teenagers at a drama camp.
Yeah.
And that's like sort of the penultimate song.
Got it, got it.
Well, you know what?
Some of these songs I don't know, but like they really sound lovely.
He sounds like a talented guy.
Absolutely talented.
So, cool, famous for a reason.
Oh, yeah.
It thinks he did that.
Yeah.
Oh, that's funny.
Yeah.
Just felt really good about like being home in bed at a reasonable hour,
watching Love Island.
Like, it was really good.
Yeah.
The crazy thing is that when Love Island started, which, you know, as now, I watch it at 835,
because that's when it secretly goes on Peacock.
It was still light out.
It's so crazy.
Like not it being light out during Love Island.
No, I know.
I have to say one good thing that's come out of Love Island, it forced us to get the kids sleeping in their own beds.
At a reasonable hour.
Starting in their own beds because they used to like start in my bed.
But like if I have to watch Love Island, then like, Zach has to put them a bed.
And so he puts them in their beds.
And you certainly cannot watch it with them new by.
Oh my God, I would literally never.
Never.
I just wouldn't watch it.
Of course.
So then those early days, like I was like, like I couldn't be in the bed with them.
So like Zach put them to bed and he like really tried to put them in their own beds.
And then they got into like a decent rhythm so I could put them in their own beds.
Like now they start in their own beds and I watch Love Island.
So like I have to say thank you to Love Island.
Do they stay in their own beds?
No, no.
They start in their own beds.
Then they're welcome to come in at any point.
Of course.
Yeah, of course.
And that's like, well, thank you to Love Island.
Thank you to Love Island.
I'm sure that's what they intended.
For the sleep training.
Well, let's dive in because we have a lot to talk about including Love Island USA Recap.

Today's episode is also brought to you by Roebuck. They're having a 20% off sale, and we need
everyone to act accordingly. It's 20% off site wide right now, but it's not for long. They only do this
major sale like twice a year, so this is the time to shop. If you've had your eye on one of their
active dresses, perhaps a scor, the biker short, bra set, or you just need a refresh on a summer
wardrobe. Now it's definitely time to pull the trigger. So we all know summer dressing sounds easy in
theory. Next thing you know, you're just like sweating, crying, screaming, throwing up, staring at your
closet. And that's where Roebuck comes in because we've been wearing so many of their essentials lately.
Their squirts are such a summer staple. They have a very flattering waistband, a very lightweight
and comfortable fabric that snatches you in, but still is not compressive. They come in the
prettiest colors. What I like most about Robeck, especially like their leggings, their bike or shorts,
is that the material is like very soft and smooth and light. But you're, like, I find sometimes when I'm
wearing bike shorts and leggings. From the back, you can see my cellulite. So I still leave them
to be like thick enough to cover that while also, you know, being lightweight. And that's where
Roeback I think is so great. If you're doing any of like the golf tennis, pickleball country club
vibe this summer, you'd need some of their active dresses. You need the squirts. You can dress them up.
You can dress them down. They're very easy. And who doesn't love a sale? It's finally time to
check out Roeback after hearing us talk about it every single week. If you have Robeck and you want
to stock up or you haven't been able to try it yet, check it out now and use our code toast on

Today's episode is also brought to you by Salt and Stone. So the viral deodorant that you've
probably heard and seen everyone posting about will really replace your perfume and you will
not stop getting compliments about it. So Salt and Stone is a fragrance company. They make
lots of body wash, it's deodorants that are super viral. They smell so good. Seriously like a hotel
lobby. And the discovery sets are going to have all four scents, which are Sontal and
Vettiver, Bergamon and Hanoke, saffron and cedar, and then Niroli and basil. The deodorant is award
winning. It's viral for a reason. It's of course aluminum-free, but it's formulated for 48-hour
protection. It is so popular. Today, they actually sell one deodorant every five seconds.
And each product is a careful blend of antioxidant and nutrient-rich ingredients. Love the
deodorant. Also love the body wash. I think Jackie and I talk a lot about her. Like,
we always want to have signature scents. But I can't wear perfume. First of all, it doesn't stay on me.
and then it always ends up giving me a headache.
So I feel like deodorant and body wash
is such a great way to create a signature scent.
And the smells from Salt and Stone are so rich and elevated.
It really smells like a hotel, a lobby, a five-star resort.
It's great for a guest bathroom.
Everyone swears by it.
The mist, they've such great products,
but I really love the deodorant,
especially if you're looking for an aluminum-free deodorant.
This is a great option because they make sense unlike any other.

My pleasure. Our first story, Taylor Swift closes out,
fiance Travis Kelsey's tight ends university with a concert and surprise performance with
Lainey Wilson. So Taylor Swift performed at T.E.U. last night for her man's and George Kittle. She
got on stage and saying love story with Lainey Wilson. It's so funny because like this is the second
year in a row where like T.EU is the biggest event. Everyone's talking about what the hell is it?
Like I don't know. Is it an organization? Is it a community event? Like I have no idea what the
the university actually does. Is it a training program? What are they teaching? Yeah. And is it like
physical things? Like is it training, you know, getting on the field doing tight end exercises or is it
sitting in the classroom learning? Is it networking for other tight ends? I feel like it was started
by three tight ends. So they call it tight end university. And I'm just guessing here. I've done no
research. And I, you know what? I don't even want to know. I think that the three tight ends got together
and started like almost like a community outreach program for like youth in sports. I feel like it's like a
camp. I really don't know. You think there's youth involved? I didn't think that there's youth involved.
Oh, you don't think it's for the youth? No. I thought it was for like a high level tight ends to come together.
Oh, you think it's like a sorority, like a fraternity within the NFL?
Yes, like a community of tight ends.
I like my idea better, but I think you're right.
Yours is like you think it's like aspiring tight ends.
Like I feel like athletes when they get to a certain level, they're always like giving back to the community of the youth.
Of course, like the boys and girls club.
No, or like.
Best buddies.
Yeah.
Is this not that?
Okay.
No, I don't think so.
I think this is like, you know.
Like a fraternity.
Like the YPO of tight.
It's like a B-B-Y-O.
No, no, I think you mean Y-P-O.
No, B-B-Y-O, like the Jewish program for Jewish youth?
Yeah, but again, with the fucking youth.
Yeah, sorry I care about the youth.
I believe the children are our future.
Sorry, Travis Kelsey fucking doesn't, okay?
No, he doesn't.
George Kittle certainly doesn't.
Okay, I have to tell you, I'm like,
I'm obsessed with George Kittle for two reasons.
One, I saw an interview entertainment tonight.
I'm sure that they were prepped because Taylor was there.
I saw it.
week before the wedding. And they obviously got permission to say like one or two things,
but I don't know. I don't believe Claire and George have any formal media training,
but it was literally an exercise in perfection, like how to answer questions while saying nothing,
but giving a little bit. So they said, yes, we got invited. I'm sure they were allowed to say that,
and it's pretty obvious. We have no idea when it is. And I think that Taylor and Travis have like
decided to confirm that it's next week, either because it is, or maybe it isn't. Or maybe it isn't.
but here what we know is that the guests who were invited don't know where it is.
We're told a day to be ready.
And I think they were told to maybe be in a certain city, which is Manhattan.
But no one has shared that, confirm that.
Based on what George Kittle said yesterday, it's that people are invited.
They don't know where it is.
George said he thinks that there's just going to be a huge jet waiting to take everyone somewhere.
Yeah, he was just like saying shit.
You know, he's wearing a blue suit.
He really like diverted the question and was respectful, even though like,
The, like, people need to stop asking people.
I know.
It's insane.
People are so scared.
Yeah, I know.
And you can see, like, Claire did not say anything because she was not going to be the one.
She was letting George lead.
Yeah, of course.
If George says it, like, he, like.
Ah, George.
He's so crazy.
Right.
I love the name George.
George is a great name.
It's a great name.
It doesn't, like, go with the vibe I'm started, like, Rubin.
It goes with mine.
Yeah, it does.
My vibe is very much, like, elder Jewish, like, immigrant.
which I love.
Like I want my children to all be found
at like second Avenue Delhi.
Like, you know?
Yeah.
But I can respect like the name George is so part.
Actually a friend of mine has a nephew named George.
And whenever she's like, oh, George came over.
I'm like, okay.
Like I love that.
Was he very curious?
Yeah.
I'm so cutesy.
It's very cute.
It does work with mine.
But it's not a long and a short.
Now I'm in long and short.
I want to talk just very.
I'm stuck long and short.
I have one negative thing to say about George Gittle.
Because Taylor performed and she like literally said,
George requested a song.
And it was like,
Taylor Swift has never taken requests.
Like,
she's not a karaoke bar.
And like,
you request love story.
Literally the song,
she's sang seven million times,
publicly,
personally, concerts,
private events.
Like,
seriously?
Like,
if you were a real fan,
you could have literally requested
any other fucking song.
No,
not even peace.
Obviously,
I was going to say to you,
I know you would request peace.
What do you think
George Kittle should have requested?
Okay,
like something that's still popular
that he would know,
like sparks fly?
Sparks fly?
That's like a well-known song.
No, I think...
No, he would have chosen something from 1989.
I would love to hear like a 1989 bonus track.
Like, okay, but he wouldn't have chosen.
George Kittle.
I'm talking about myself.
George Kittle with like blank space style.
Like literally anything would have been better.
I'm happier to hear a love story over those two.
You have to think, like, it would have been nice to hear maybe out of the woods.
I don't know if he's an out of the woods guy, but that would be great.
Oh, but I guess like she's getting married this week.
So love stories.
I think love story goes platinum in the locker rooms.
Like Travis loves it.
George loves it.
The players love love story.
But just imagine.
Like you are a chosen person.
Like you get to request a song from Taylor.
Okay.
But am I like, is it a solo concert?
Am I like raging?
You're in George Kittles position.
Taylor is performing for girly swirling university because I have a close relationship with Travis.
I have to give like five answers.
Okay.
And let me just look at her whole catalog.
just make sure I'm not missing anything.
But I definitely think state of grace.
Like if she started playing,
I would...
Okay, that's one.
I know mine.
Honestly, king of my heart.
And I want to say a lot of my favorite songs
are from like TTPD folklore evermore,
but I wouldn't choose them for this.
I just want to say.
This is a hack.
I would do all too well 10 minute version.
that's so good make her work for it and also like at eras tour that song went the hardest it's true actually
what i think went the hardest was um for me fearless the song fearless yeah it's so interesting
when she was at the guitar and she opens up and she did the hard hands like that really went actually
surprisingly what also went really hard for me was the archer that was like something that really got to me
i love the archer yeah um so yeah let me just go album my album here's what i
I would choose like dead ass from Fearless, ready?
And then you have to pick one, Cojourner.
Oh, really?
Forever and always would be so good.
But it's not like boppy enough, you know?
Mm-hmm.
And it raised in you.
Actually, no, it would be good.
You know what?
I think I'd have to choose You belong with me.
I know.
You belong with me is like the climb of Taylor Swift songs for me.
It's true.
It changed my life.
It's-state, okay.
So from, yeah, then from red, I would definitely do state of grace.
You belong with me.
He adds, he belonged with me.
Sorry.
I might also do Holy Ground,
but that's definitely not going to be like my main choice, you know?
Yeah.
Speak now, lots of good options.
Sparks fly.
Sparks fly.
The story of us.
I would choose, that's my number one.
I would choose the story of us.
Like she literally has never saying it.
And it's such a...
What about long live?
Oh, of course, of course.
But we're like at a concert.
We're trying to get...
It's a football thing.
We're trying to get people like am.
You get one.
Wildest streams as well.
Long live is amped.
Wilder streams.
This is so hard.
I really don't have an answer for you.
But I can tell you it's not going to be
from the life of a show girl.
Yeah.
For me, it's you belong with me.
So I do feel like love story and you belong with me
are like of the same vein.
I understand why that's what he chose.
But just like imagine if she came out and like saying Marjorie.
Like imagine if the person she was taking requests from
was like a diehard fan whose favorite song.
song was like white horse you know right but i think the diehard fan would make her sing peace
because she refuses well then that would just be like harmful to taylor and i don't think taylor
will ever sing peace ever again because it's it's literally the definition of why her and joe allwin
broke up yeah yeah well that was cute yeah and lany wilson
oh yeah i want to talk about lany wilson just for two seconds yeah and i feel as though she has like
very low key swirlitude.
It's not obvious, but she does, you know,
she was in the Hannah Montana special.
She's out here performing a tailors trip.
She doesn't look swirly.
She looks like very, you know, conjuring.
Cooler than you.
Yeah, but I think she's got that swirlitude.
I know, like at this rate, she might be a toaster.
Yeah.
She just has like, you know, I don't want to say basic,
but like common girly interests.
Yeah, and she just doesn't look like she would, you know?
No, she doesn't.
And also do you feel like being tapped to perform at this event, like kind of sucks because
everyone's just like, oh, it's Lady Wilson.
Is Taylor coming?
Like they're just sort of waiting for Taylor the whole time.
She did it last year.
No, I don't think so.
Okay.
I didn't get that feeling.
Okay.
It seemed like a warm and loving environment.
Okay.
At the T.E.U.
Our next story, Kylie Jenner is the new face of meta-glasses.
There were a lot of people posting meta-glasses.
The Kylie was the biggest one.
Are you having deja vu?
Didn't everybody make glasses like 10 years?
Snap?
They all made glasses like five, 10 years ago.
And like it was cool and novel, but like they didn't really,
as sincere would say, emerge into the culture.
Like nobody wore them in a serious way.
Yeah, people like don't want glasses like this.
They don't want like camera wearable techie glasses.
Google Glass.
George Glass.
George Glass.
Google Glass.
Snapglass.
Snapchat's coming out with another one.
I want Snapple glasses.
Like, what's with the glasses?
People need to let the mouse go.
People don't want glasses, like with tech in them.
I just want to see.
I need to know how much Kylie was paid for this.
I think she was paid $1 billion because it's such a good move by META.
She's the coolest person in the world.
Anybody can make glasses cool.
Like, it would be her.
Her voices in the glasses, they greet you with like Razz and Shine.
And like if you ask, yeah, if you ask for the weather, it's like her telling you the weather for
the day.
Like, it's her voice in the glasses.
Oh, so like.
So it's not just like an ad.
They literally said like who's the coolest person on earth that can make these glasses cool.
And then like I think they would have paid her $100 million.
And they're going to use her likeness and her voice,
which is like a huge thing in AI, people getting paid for their voices.
I don't even think $100 million is enough.
And like for me, I don't want to use the term like sell out because like get your bag.
No, and I love selling out.
Like I want to sell out all the time.
And I say it actually in a good way and in a prideful way.
Like, but I believe that she sold out for this opportunity.
Yay.
Yeah, only because, like, glasses are just not it.
Meta.
They've been trying for, like, decades
to make tech glasses a thing.
And sometimes, I mean, of course,
you could ever, you know,
predict what's going to take off
what people are going to love.
But we tried this once.
Everyone did.
Why am I doing it again?
And also, like, what makes this different?
Oh, my God.
What made you want to part of this interview with Elle?
What made you want to part her with meta?
I don't know the paycheck, but she said.
Obviously.
Glass have always been my thing.
come again
literally since when
actually I wear sunglasses a lot as well
but like
by the way sunglasses are everyone's thing
that's like not a thing to have a thing
no it's not but actually some people
like are more sunglasses than others
you know like some people just like
raw dog get outside
yeah I don't feel like I'm ever really seeing Kylie
with that many sunglasses if I'm being honest
I can't even get a package outside my tour
without putting on sunglasses
I agree I feel it's definitely damaging my eyes
because whenever I walk outside without glasses,
I'm like, ah, like a cryptkeeper.
Like, I know.
I actually, like, go through, like, small bits of trying to strengthen my eyes.
Yes, I'm trying to, like, create some sort of immunity.
The key is, I actually Shannon and I talked about this a few years ago,
and it stuck with me.
Like, you have to, like, not wear sunglasses, like, early in the morning and later in the day.
To adjust.
Like, at high time, you can.
But, yeah, I'm always trying to, like, wean from sunglasses.
Yeah, back to Kylie's most moronic statement that she just made.
There was more.
There was more. Hold on.
Glasses have always been my thing.
They're the first thing I noticed on someone honestly.
So when META came to me and said I could actually design a pair, not just show up for
a campaign, I was like, wait, this is different.
I got to be involved in everything, the shape, the colors, the packaging, even the little
chime sound it makes when you put them on.
It's just crazy.
This is how you know a product is bad because I'm like very influenced by Kylie.
and I do not have one iota of like desire to purchase how much are they oh i don't know i just like
i can't take this on right now okay like i'm happy with my phone and i just got i got i got one of those
like i want to say i'm not even happy with my phone like i'm too addicted to it i'm like actively trying
to withdraw it's more than enough it's more than i just got like one of those camp snap cameras
the best so like i'm covered i i don't feel like i need to be capturing more of my life than i
already am like i feel sufficiently captured yeah i feel sufficiently
like close with technology you know like I don't need it on my face also if
air pods are bad for you can't imagine what this is so sure think of the radiation so I
support and love her and I think you know worse this this is great money and you know if the
Knicks keep winning every season like her and Timothy are going to need to go to like a lot of
expensive games and the Jets and the tickets for free the Jets and everything I could add
the Jets yeah so I know they'll need to
need the money. And so I like this for that reason. I'm glad that like met out of everyone on earth
like chose her because that's the right choice. Yeah, they should just, this goes to the next fund.
I just don't, I just don't want them, okay? Yeah. And I don't want everyone else to get them. And then everyone
else is a message to everyone else. Please don't buy these. Like, like, then everyone else is like taking
content the way she was on the bike and like everyone else is like taking like phoneless selfies. Like I just,
I can't keep up, okay? Just please no.
Speaking of selfies, like when Corbyn and Permito were taking a picture
are sitting right next to Caleb.
I was very upset.
Caleb needs to like stop acting like a loser because he is a very handsome,
lovely guy.
So stop acting like a loser.
That's good advice for kind of everyone on the island.
No, but he's acting like nobody wants him like he's discard.
He's one of the most handsome guys there.
He has a heart of gold.
Like stop acting like second fiddle.
Jackie, you said Corbett.
I'm like, what are you talking about a heart of gold?
Caleb.
Sorry.
Now go back.
Caleb.
Oh my God.
I was genuinely like nodding my head because I'm a supportive sister.
I'm like, what the hell is she talking about?
She wants.
Caleb needs to stop acting like a loser.
Like nobody wants him.
No, I disagree with you.
Nobody wants him and everybody needs to stop treating him like a loser.
The fact that he cannot get arrested the hottest, sweetest guy on the show is just proof.
Test him into the disgusting nature of the show.
Yeah, like the fact that he's the fact that he's,
He can literally cannot get arrested.
It's just proof that like sincere,
who is the worst guy in the world,
has had three girls now fall for him.
Like, it's just, he's so on the wrong show.
Him and Anaya need to go on Love is Blind.
At this point, I guess Anaya has the personality for Love is Blind,
which is a compliment.
But like at this point, like Anaya's not, not my fame.
No, of course not.
I miss my man.
No, even last night, she was just like,
like just talking so emphatically at the camera,
like, you know, just saying all these things
that just like don't line up about how like,
they're the best and they're the baddest
and I'm gonna, like, it's just all this like hype
and it's like, but you're gonna go cry for Casey.
Oh, I'm sorry, that's the theme
of the entire villa right now, every single girl.
This villa is about to shake.
Oh, I'm gonna go so fucking ham.
They're crying on the couch.
I miss my man.
Not one of them has kissed anyone.
Keda literally won't kiss this guy.
Zach is over here sleeping in a bed with someone,
but we haven't seen it because they're obviously
cutting out Alana.
but literally Kate is over here
be like this fella's gonna shake when he comes back
You won't even kiss this guy
No like the talk
Vers the walk from Anaya
Anaya from the whole group
I'm sorry but really yeah Anaya
Anaya is the most to me like the most glaring
Obvious yeah
Because Melanie's like pining for sincere
But she's not in her confessional's like
We're about to turn it up
She's really not into anyone there
Yeah I don't know that conversation with
Well that was a turning point
The vital,
we're,
Okay.
Third story,
memoir news.
Oh,
let me think.
Who's starting a memoir?
You don't know,
but I think you're going to read it.
Really?
Memoirs of a Joe Mangonello.
You're kidding.
Joe Manginello is sharing a lot about his
life-threatening autoimmune-related illnesses
that resulted in him having an amputation
in his forthcoming memoir called,
what?
You would never guess.
Oh.
Blood lines.
Okay, you know what I was actually going to say?
Because he's from true blood.
That's like how he got famous.
And this is, so he said he dealt with a cascade of autoimmune related illnesses that
attacked his thyroid, digestive system, skin, lungs, and eyes.
During the seven-year battle, he dealt with chronic pain, a life-saving organ amputation,
existential crisis, and a prolonged fight for survival that left doctors with few answers
and no clear explanation.
He also turned to an unorthodox form of treatment.
he used shamans, pagan rituals, ancient myths, long-lost family records,
and the rebirth of his own spirituality to try to aid his illness.
So I guess that's where the bloodlines also comes in,
like he's tracing his ancestry to try and understand his health.
Maybe you won't be reading it.
Maybe.
It sort of reminds me of you in your thumb.
It does.
Maybe I need to check my ancient bloodlines to see what's wrong with my thumb.
Maybe you should write a memoir called Thumb.
I love that. Back to Joe Manginello, all tea, all shade. I love this man more than anything. I've actually never wanted to read anything less. I don't think Joe Manginello is like a celebrity who's like really, whose personal life and career is like really interesting enough for a memoir. So I guess he has to take an alternate route and tell us about his autoimmune disease. But like I'm genuinely all set. I have my own health issues. I don't have you guys heard the pre-fast five banner. Like I certainly don't need to spend my leisurely time reading about someone else's.
And then once you hit once, when I hear the word shaman, personally, I just shut down because
that means the person I'm talking to is like deeply not serious.
Pagan rituals.
Yeah.
Demonic.
Yeah.
I think that also when we talk about like chronic illnesses and autoimmune, there is a reputation
like for them being like fake and made up.
And I really do believe that they're very much real.
But I think in like celebrity culture, people use like autoimmune disease, like Lyme disease.
They use it to, I think a lot of times these.
autoimmune disease cover up anorexia.
It's like, well, you think you're not feeling well,
but it's because you're anorexic
and you haven't eaten in three weeks.
Or like, they do it for attention.
So I don't know.
I'm not saying that Joe Mangonello is doing that.
I'm just saying like I'm not interested in finding out.
No, I agree.
No, this seems like very serious.
It was like seven years of his life, like debilitating.
And but I agree with you sometimes autoimmune diseases
uses like a blanket to cover up like, you know,
drug and alcohol abuse.
Like a thousand percent.
It could be a million things, but it's also like a very serious thing sometimes.
For real people, yeah.
Yeah, for real people.
So this is probably the first time I'll have like something,
first and last time I'll have something negative to say about Joe Mangonella.
Like I'm not reading your book, but I love you.
Is it a picture book?
Oh, and when we talk about organ amputation, which one?
Could be kidney, lung.
I guess we'll have to read the book to find out.
Kidney or lung?
Kidney or lung.

Next, Lizzo's new album fails to chart as dismal first week's sales have been revealed.
Rolling Stone has reported that Lizzo sold just 2,649 copies of her new album, Bitch,
and achieved just 2.7 million on-demand streams, according to music data company Luminate.
In its second week, sales dropped to 650 units, also not.
Not one of the album's singles have become chart hits on the Billboard 200.
Lizzo herself is speaking out against perceived changes in the music industry,
saying the industry changed so much in the last three years.
Streaming replaced radio and I was a radio darling.
That's how my fans discovered my music.
She also said that the very obvious and public attack on her career
has shifted the public's perception of her, you know.
I just want to say it has for sure.
by three of her former backup dancers.
It has for sure, but I feel like in culture, people like, scandals come and go very quickly,
and it's very rare that something sticks and really takes someone down.
We always say, like, no one's really cancelable.
But Lizzo's been such an interesting example, and I really think that a part of it that's just not being said,
because people are like, it's this, it's that, it's radio.
I think the music sucks.
And that's huge.
Because when you think about, there are a lot of artists.
We're always saying so many people separate the art from the artist.
Like, you just like good songs.
Like, why should we be punished?
If she was releasing like true banger,
like people would just forget about it.
People forget about shit all the time.
Like worse stuff than she did.
I think her music sucks.
And I think that there was also,
I read a huge article.
Like people are like saying her label has sort of like left her out.
Abandon her.
Yeah.
But the thing is,
is I feel like these days like,
yeah, of course,
having a label behind you is huge
and you can always tell when somebody's getting like pushed by the label.
It's annoying.
So much of it is just like bootstrapping on TikTok.
Like that's where,
and she does the most on TikTok these days.
She always was like the darling of TikTok
And now she's like making you know, Tic Tacs about Love Island
Just to like boost her.
Yeah, it's like dire out there
But I think that what's not being said is like the music is just not good.
Yeah, if the music were good like people would be listening to it.
People, you know, even I think about like Ariana Grande,
who's had like a worse PR nightmare over the last few years than her
And people still stream the music because like when it's good, it's good.
No, people just can't quit her.
And like you learn to just like grapple with whatever the accusations are.
Everyone has, I mean, who had a bigger, Jackie, who had a bigger scandal than Morgan Wallen?
Like, everyone has huge things.
Chris Brown.
Well, of course.
And then, like, you were, I mean, Michael Jackson or Kelly.
Yeah, of course.
That's what I'm saying.
Like, for somebody to be taken out completely, like, wiped 2,600 albums, like, wiped completely from the face of the universe.
It's not just one thing.
But I think what's not really being spoken about is, like, the album being really bad.
Now, I do also want to say that I think people are really surprised.
Like, obviously, $2,600 is so low.
because we're used to like millions of albums sold
but like when an artist
like a famous artist not like Taylor
but like a regular artist
it's always the album purchases
a successful album is considered like
like around 50,000
it's not what it used to be
because people stream now
so just a little bit of perspective
it's not like everyone is selling hundreds of thousands
I wasn't expecting a million
50,000 is a lot
yeah right but it's not like back in the day
like millions of millions and millions
because people don't buy albums anymore
that the structure
is different. Now, of course, when we compare to like Taylor and Adele and Beyonce, like, when they,
but like regular artists like around Lizzo's size, I think they do like 30 to 50.
Okay. So she's very much falling short. Of course, but it's not like everyone's doing millions.
Not one song, not one single on the Billboard 200. And I would love to know like what it really is.
Perhaps it's just a perfect storm of the scandal, which she really didn't recover from well,
but so many people go through so many scandals and so many bigger ones, honestly. Like,
Or like I just wonder like where are her fans like the people who were like her
number one fans like back four years ago for her last album?
I think that the effects of OZembek on like Lizzo,
the effects of OZembek on culture can't have to be brought up here as well because
what I think Ozempic showed the world is that like well yes it's totally okay to be
plus size and if you are plus size you should be treated like a human being like
But people who are plus-sized don't want to be plus-size.
They're not plus-size, for the most part, by choice.
So when this thing came that sort of gave you the option to not be anymore,
which was never an option for most people, myself included,
of course most people are going to take it.
And I think it's stunning indictment.
I don't know if you saw Trisha Padeus for Roe.
I saw that she's doing GLP ones.
I didn't know why that's a big deal.
It's a big deal because she was very,
actually people are making it into a big deal, but it's not. She's a mom of three. She's a working
woman and she was unhealthy. And she just like literally, she's like, I just want to feel good.
She's like, does her what I eat in a days now. And she's just like, she still eats a ton.
Like she's like, I'm not even skinny. I'm just like trying to be healthier. She does Pilates.
She goes for walks every day. But it's caused like a huge, everyone's freaking out. Like Trisha Padas is on a
GLP one. But she reminds me a little bit of Lizzo, just like the face of this movement.
But I feel like Trisha was like unwillingly the face. She just like, she's just like, she's
struggled and wanted to look different.
Lizzo is the face of this movement.
It wasn't like her whole brand.
I didn't even, when I think of Trisha Padas,
I don't think of her size.
No, I actually just wanted to talk about Trisha Padas
on JLP ones. That's actually neither here nor there.
Lizzo was the face of this movement and the movement really is no longer a movement.
Because when given the option, most people took the drug because while yes, we're embracing
fat and fat is beautiful.
Like it's not our first choice.
Yeah.
So when you were actually for the first time given a choice,
of course you're going to take it.
So I think her sort of messaging
became a little irrelevant.
I think when she, like she
blew up in such a way
at the time that she did.
And her messaging and just her essence
really touched on the zeitgeist
of that moment. Yes. Yes.
And that moment has passed.
Yep. And she's failed to capture
whatever moment we're in now. I don't even know.
And the music doesn't speak to what we're in now.
Maybe it's still, I haven't listened to it.
So maybe it's still doing that 2018
thing that, you know, everything is a phase.
Every, like, but evolve or die.
And so no one wants to hear that message right now.
That's just not the vibe.
So if she didn't evolve, she's stuck in the past.
And if she did and it's not good, then it's just not good.
It's just crazy because like three or four years ago,
she was the most nominated, like, artist at the Grammys that year.
Yeah, but I think if we think hard about it,
there are probably a lot of other cases like this.
I mean, it's the Kia Asylum.
It's just, we're all talking about it more because, like,
Lizzo is so talkaboutable, you know?
Yes, she is.
She's at lightning rod.
Yeah, people like talking about her, they like, you know, just like pinning things to her,
you know, making her like just like the symbol of a larger conversation.
But look at the whole, every cell at the Kia asylum, it's this.
Yeah, it is.
It's people with like, who had a huge moment.
Who had a huge moment and then failed to follow up.
That's really all it is.
I don't think it's like a bigger conversation.
I just think like, you know, sometimes you, even with influencers, they go super viral.
They have to blow up so quickly.
And then like a few years later, it's like, well, what are you doing now?
Because that doesn't last forever.
Right.
So I think that's just like natural.
Yeah.
And at the end of the day, if the song, if the music was good, people would be listening to it, period.
The thing is, though, also, I think a lot of artists have like major flops.
But the numbers don't become a headline.
When it's like, why do we know this number?
Right, that's what I'm saying.
People also just like hate Lizzo and like want to see her fails.
But it's Rolling Stone put it out.
She has a hater there.
Why does Rolling Stone hate Lizzo?
I don't know, but like they're definitely artists who have major, major flops numbers wise.
Do you think it's because they think she's bananas?
I do think that this is like on like on the larger scale in terms of flops.
Like people flop a lot, but to not have a single single from the album chart.
Like that's kind of like disastrous.
Yeah.
I just want to know like what happened between Rolling Stone and Lizzo.
because it's like this wouldn't have been the story
if they didn't report it.
Yeah, yeah, it's true.
It's not even like it's like a billboard wrote it up
who like does the charts.
Yeah, or that someone noticed
she didn't have a single song on the chart.
Because otherwise, like how do we get access
to how many albums you sold?
Down to the one, 2,649.
It is publicly available information
because we always know how many Taylor does.
I guess just no one like always checks in.
Yeah, like a week after the album releases and the charts come out, it has the numbers on it.
Okay.
It does?
Yeah.
Our fifth and final story.
A little Nix News, Jordan Woods' lucky orange bag.
It's a place of honor at the Guggenheim Museum following the Knicks Big Win.
Is it actually staying there or this was just like a TikTok?
Oh, I don't know.
Because she like had an interview that went viral saying like the bag needs to be in the Guggenheim.
or the MoMA.
She was listed a couple of museums.
So somebody got in on the viral moment.
I don't know if it's actually going to stay there.
Yeah,
it probably won't stay there very long,
but maybe for a little bit.
So Jordan Woods has a lucky orange bag
that she wore to nearly every game
leading up to their historic win
and fans like knew the bag and his lucky bag.
No, no.
And the time she didn't win,
they won all their playoff games.
Like that's, they were on a run.
They lost one game.
And she didn't bring the bag.
And the cool thing is that it's from her brand.
Yes.
Which is just like a great thing for her.
Her brand is in the Guggenheim.
Woods by Jordan.
Yeah.
So I think like the whole bag thing has been really fun, obviously.
But like for a business owner, it's a dream.
Yeah.
It's obviously been completely sold out since they won.
That's hilarious.
Yeah, really cute.
Yeah.
And Carl Anthony Towns like whenever he's asked about it, he's like, oh, you mean Woods by Jordan?
Like he's always making sure the brand name gets in the headline.
It's actually so sweet.
That's really cute.
Yeah, they're really cute together.
I wonder when they're getting married, probably soon,
because basketball is a long season and they have to do it in the off season,
which starts now.
So you think they're going to get married before the next season?
I feel like they'll maybe get married this summer.
Yeah, he keeps calling her wifie.
Like, yeah.
And she had her bachelorette party already.
Oh, sorry, yeah, they're definitely getting married like today.
Oh, cute.
That's like something to be on the look.
Do you think Kylie will be there, yeah?
What's the connection?
Oh, Kylie.
Sorry, I thought you meant Taylor.
I don't know.
I was just thinking about Taylor.
Sorry.
Of course.
We always are.
I'm just,
because she's not there.
Yeah,
she should be there based on what we know,
she should be there.
Based on what we know,
but I'm just saying,
I know in my heart of heart,
like Jordan has a little bit of hate
in her heart for Kylie.
But she shouldn't.
But they'll never be back where they were.
And like it's,
yeah,
it's copacetic and it's good.
But I know that Jordan, like,
is resentful.
And I feel like,
I feel like that's not fair.
And they shouldn't be at the level
that they were because that,
like, now they have,
like, husbands and children.
Of course.
They were like each other,
like that's,
What are they going to live together again?
No.
Agreed.
All right.
Let's have into La Yusa TV recap, Casa Moore Night 3.
We had probably the craziest challenge.
And like, I'm sorry.
We're starting every recap like that.
Let me get it out of the way.
Let me get it out of the way.
So disgusting that like free for all freestyle orgy at the very end.
Like the challenge was disgusting up until that point.
And I have to, I can't lie.
I barely watch.
Like when I knew what the premise was, I was like, okay.
I genuinely was watching the whole time.
I found myself.
Like if I was wearing pearls, I would have been clutch.
clutching them.
I had my hand over my mouth, like in shock.
The foot?
Like so much feet.
It was insane.
And the whole thing, and I'm glad that like the editors, sorry, excuse me, the producers, like,
seemed to be a little bit more heavy handed this time because obviously they were very
particular about who's going to win which challenge.
And it had to be a tie so that there was a freak off at the end.
It was literally a ditty party freak off.
It was.
It was.
So it's about time.
They've like let the islanders, like, they've let them be a little too much.
And that's how we've gotten in the sport situation.
So yeah, a little bit of heavy-handed editing.
I was down for editing, not editing, producing.
Yeah.
Because it was just like a little too convenient, you know?
And like we want Zach to think that Kate is really with this guy.
So it was smart.
Yeah, there were some of them where I actually felt like it shouldn't have been that way.
Like someone else needed to win to get that person like riled up.
Yeah, right.
Like of course Casey won over Anaya so that she can like understand.
Hopefully.
That he's moving on.
Hopefully.
Hopefully.
Hopefully, but probably still not.
I do like Casey and Tierra, but the way Casey is acting in this Casa Amor, like, he's up there with Sincer.
Like, he is bad news.
The fact that he, like, had to sleep with Sydney the next night, like, just to go back to Tierra.
Like, she, why is it, like, why people think it's weird that she's not exploring?
I feel like coming in saying, you're my type, I like you, I'm here to see you.
It's so normal.
And it actually, like, should be a quality that he admires about her.
But instead, it's, like, pissing him off.
I really like her energy.
and her approach.
I mean, it's just crazy out it's for KC, but fine.
But like, where's that energy for Caleb?
No, I feel sick.
Parmita, like, jump ship so hard.
You know what, Parmita, he can't handle all that.
Parmita and Corbyn, like, I like them.
The thing is, there's nobody here for Caleb.
I know.
I think that it probably was Kenzie.
And I just think Kenzie is not who the producers thought she was going to be.
Agreed with that.
She's not who I thought she was going to be.
I don't even know who the fuck she is.
like that conversation about sugar,
spice everything nice with that freaky guy
whose name I don't know,
like was genuinely some of the most painful
shit I've had to sit through.
I agree, but I think you're great.
I'm a visual, I'm a visual learner.
Oh, he was, oh my God, he was mess.
You are?
Me too.
Claudia, he was messing with her because he wanted
to keep looking at her boobs.
Of course, of course.
He goes, I'm a visual learner.
She's like, you are me too.
And he was like, yeah, same.
You just said that.
No, I know, but he was like being funny.
Coy.
No, no, he was being funny.
He was like, I'm a visual.
Let me see those boobs again.
I actually, I like, I didn't have an issue with him.
I like them together.
I think that they're a fit.
And I'm glad that Corbyn has Parmita.
I just need love for Caleb.
Kenzie, like,
Kenzie is the sincere of the girl's side,
except that she doesn't have the power that sincere has.
Like, but she's low-key, like, you've brought I've been waiting for.
Who have you been waiting?
You haven't waited one second.
No, I think what she meant was like someone who is her type,
who she also.
like gets along with you know like they brought in Caleb for her but she just like didn't connect with him
and as much as like her and Corbin were connected he she kept saying like he's not her usual type
and I think I mean we could see it it was all physical between them yeah like what the fuck did
they talk about also like Corby like hates her like every time he gets asked about her he's like
I haven't thought about her once why does he hate her she was nothing but nice to him
obsessed I don't know so that was rude and yeah all the oh
are sort of like retreating back to one another.
Bryce and Trinity like very much are very into each other and they're winning.
They will come back to each other.
It will be very cute and then they will win.
Agreed.
Agreed.
Brinity is going to be like.
Brinity will take it all.
Casey is not coming back to Anaya.
Anaya is still a question mark.
And then Sincere's like, is she a solidified question mark?
What does that mean?
These guys also talking so many analogies.
Like Sincere's always being like,
Sincere does.
cookie dough and I'm chocolate chip but like sometimes I like chocolate chip even soul was like he's
apple pie and I don't always like apple pie but maybe he's a apple pie that I like maybe he's a honey
crisp apple yeah the analogies are killing because here does the craziest analogies sincere is the one
I saw somebody say like last night's episode was sincere versus the English language like he can't talk
and he's always like epitome that was insane yeah but who am I to judge of course um
What else happened on last night's episode besides a freaky?
Oh, and then like Caleb has been darned together with this random girl.
What's her name?
Jaden.
She seems nice.
She has pink eyes.
Nobody else knows.
She does.
She's got some funky eye infection.
Like there she has.
I was actually very worried.
I hope it's not contagious.
We need to get a medic onset.
Maybe from having someone's ass on her face.
It was before.
But yeah.
In the heat rising challenge.
Yeah, yeah.
Oh my God.
Seriously, we need a medic.
She looks sick.
I didn't even notice, but like,
I won't hear a word of slander for anyone
who's giving Caleb the time of time.
I know.
The thing is, and it paints me to say,
it's like, Caleb has to go home.
Like, this is just not the place for him.
No, it's really, it's not.
Oh, and then Alana was in the episode for half a second.
I'm fairly certain she's probably already home now.
You said this.
I don't know if you said it on the show,
you texted me, but she's kind of like an important plot device
for Zach Vakata.
and we need Zach to kind of like her.
So her being whisked away
doesn't help the divide
they're trying to create between Kada and Zach.
So she will be sent home when the villa reunites.
No, but I think they're going to wait to see what Zach decides.
And Zach is going to send her home.
Yeah, right.
Zach's going back with Kada.
And Kada's going to handle itself.
But if she were,
they're going to wait to see if he will bring her to the villa.
And then even if he did bring her to the villa,
then the next day they would send her home.
And he has to deal with the consequence.
That would be great.
Right, but he's not even bringing her.
So the guy that's Kada, and I don't know any of the new people's names,
I know the girls, but I don't know the guys.
The guy that Kata is chatting with.
Okay, his name is Che.
He looks just like Brian, who won last season.
Does nobody think that?
Joey Kamasta.
Oh, he looks like Joey Kamasta.
And why he looks most like Joey Kamasta is because he's a little, like,
fruity, no?
Does nobody else think that he might be gay?
The way he talks, he's like very, I think him and Kate are getting along because, like,
he's one of the girls.
He's a little swirling.
Yeah.
Like, does nobody.
I think that.
I was just like,
no,
I didn't think that.
Maybe it was just
that he looked like
Joey Camasta that it were like
that I thought maybe.
There's a game.
I thought he looked like
Joey Camasta too.
That's really funny.
What else?
Oh, and then Anaya and Carl.
Like that's
if she doesn't pick him,
she's a fool.
She is a fool though.
Like I think that it's been made clear.
No, no.
If she does pick him like,
I'll have respect for her.
But like,
because I understand it's hard
to leave your OG.
Stockholm Syndrome, I get it.
But she has proven to us, like, time and time again, that she is a fool.
I am almost certain that she will go back to Casey and he will bring back Tierra.
Yeah, and he should bring back Tierra.
He really likes her and she's a great gal.
I love these Casa girls.
Yes, great crop.
I really like them.
I want more of them to come to the village.
Yeah, well, Parmita will be there.
Parmita will be there.
T.T.
Jaden will be there.
Jaden will be there.
I don't need Sydney.
she freaks me out
that conversation about whipped cream
like she was like do you do freaky stuff
like toys and stuff in case he was like no
but he's like such a big talker he's always talking about how he wants
but he's like no I don't do his toys
he's like I mean like have you done like whipped cream
what the fuck was that I don't know I like her though
but I don't think she's coming back
me neither and I don't think that
Alana is coming back either
and then oh
sincere and Amora
Amora okay so the thing is I actually get the vibe
that sincere does not like her.
No, he's doing the soul thing again.
No, but with soul, like I believed him.
I really thought he liked her.
And you would have believed him now,
except we just witnessed the soul gate.
No, but every time he talks, like, to respond to her
and reciprocate her feelings,
he, like, hesitates a lot.
And I don't know if it's the editing.
They're trying to make us think
that he's thinking about Melanie.
Yeah, I think that he's, like, trying to explore,
for the sake of being an explorer.
But he's going back to Melanie, 100%.
And I hope that someone can get through to Melanie.
I feel like is it like allowed to tell what you've seen on TV?
Because I wonder.
What's his name?
I don't know.
Veneers.
I don't know his name.
I got to say.
I think it might be Corey.
Corey, those are some of the craziest veneers I've ever seen.
Like honestly, they're enormous.
He told Melanie like what they've seen on TV and like what, not the reception, but just like.
I like what I've seen.
No, but he also said like I've seen about sincere.
Like I feel like he was sort of hinting to her.
that she's coming off looking stupid
because then in the confessional she was like,
I really don't want to look stupid.
Interesting.
Don't you feel like she's also changed so much
from like the girl in the first week?
She was very crazy, Houda Mustafa energy.
Yeah.
And she's very calm now.
Yeah, but is it just the quiet
in the eye of the storm?
There was a period where like Huda got quiet
after the big storm.
And she went to Casa and she partnered with Chris
and then it all, and we forgot about her for a second.
Yeah, yeah.
And then it blew up again.
So I'm reserving judgment.
But I agree she's definitely been a little more tame,
but still her reactions are so big.
Yeah.
When one of the girls is like, well, she wasn't there for this,
but like Trinand Trinity said she kissed him.
And the girls are streaking.
And it's like, Kada.
What do you mean you're shrieking that she kissed him?
She just sat on his face at the challenge.
No, Kada, no wonder your voice is hoarse.
You are always screaming.
Always screaming over a kiss.
When like literally I think someone might have given a live blow job at the challenge.
Right.
They actually had to cut a lot of stuff.
Yeah, they cut away from Cormid and Parmita.
Like, I think he went down on her on television.
Like, I don't know.
Like, because what's stopping them from having sex?
Yeah, it's kind of like last season with Huda and Ace.
Like, if one of them pulled down the pans and started giving a blowjob, like, would they win the challenge?
Probably, yeah.
So, like, that's what's next.
Really, it's every, like, we are going to every base.
We are rounding third.
Yeah.
Maybe next season.
We'll be a little live orgy.
Like, seriously.
someone will get up there and have sex because that's what they're doing.
Now we almost wrapped up the entire Love Island recap without bringing up Jen.
Well, because she's sort of like very cute off into the sunset.
There's no one else there for either of them.
So it's sort of like they need each other.
And they like each other.
She chose him out of the 12 guys.
Like that was her pick for her.
She likes him.
He's her type.
I think it's great.
Great.
They have like actual conversation about like, you know, nonsense, which is what people talk about.
Too here.
Like, no, no, and that's what you do in life.
Like, what do you like to do?
Like, just they talk instead of just always talking about like the fact that they're talking.
That's what everybody else does.
It's like, well, are you exploring?
We're talking about our conversations.
We're talking about the fact that we're having a conversation.
Whereas let's just have a conversation.
How do you feel our conversations are going?
Are you open to having a conversation?
Are you open to having more conversations?
This is a classic one.
I really like our conversations.
And I want to have more chats.
Of course.
Pull me for a chat.
And I'm open to having more chats.
And the cutest bombshell.
Where the chats go.
The cutest bombshell is Ronnie and no one's giving him the time of day.
He had one conversation with Melanie, but I don't think it was impactful.
Yeah, he sort of slipped through because he was there for Melanie, but then Melanie
swore for Corey.
Yeah.
And that's that on that.
And it's crazy.
Like Corey was the one who made out with Trinity and now is with Melanie when, like, I
wouldn't have picked him dead last.
It's just so funny how like people's tastes.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You know?
Mm-hmm.
