Starting point is 00:00:00 Good morning, Millennials! Welcome back to The Toast and happy Tuesday. Hope everybody's having a great day. It's a Tuesday that for us, not to brag, feels like a Friday. This is our last show of the week before we head into the Thanksgiving weekend, which is very exciting.
Starting point is 00:00:14 Hey, Jax, how you turn? I'm doing good. It's a Tuesday. It feels like a Thursday because we still have a lot of work to do before we can really enjoy the holidays. It's true, it's true. So while this is our last official show of the week, there's much to be done.
Starting point is 00:00:29 There's much to do over at our Patreon. Patreon.com slash the toast is where you can go this holiday if you're missing your girls. Yes, we will be dropping episodes for the rest of the week on Patreon to make sure everybody is well taken care of because the holidays can be difficult. But one thing making the holidays less difficult is our holiday merch drop. So yesterday we launched our Wenchmas sets on ShopToastMerch.com. The shop will be open for a little bit longer. Want to make sure everybody can get their orders in whatever size they want.
Starting point is 00:00:56 It's all for pre-order, but we will close the shop soon to ensure that we can start production and get everybody shipped out as soon as possible. So make sure to head to ShopToastMerch.com. As Jackie said yesterday, you don't have to rush, but make haste, if you will. Yeah, like do it in a timely fashion. We don't have forever. We don't. I mean.
Starting point is 00:01:14 The limit does exist. Do you want to hear something crazy? Always. There's like a small chance that it snows today. And you will see the snow. And I have have to say it does feel bittersweet because if I do see the snow before Christmas in my apartment like I will be so I will feel warmth and I will feel joy but it wouldn't feel right experiencing it without Theo yeah because Theo is still at the hospital yes he, he's not home yet. He probably won't be for like, I'm just guessing the rest of the week. You think he'll spend Thanksgiving there?
Starting point is 00:01:50 I do. Which sucks balls. Yeah. I don't really have an update for anyone. Today is like a big day. The truckers for Theo are outside. The outpouring of love. I just want to say the outpouring of love for Theo.
Starting point is 00:02:04 I was reading the comments and of course the truckers as well with their horns. Like, did you see all of that? There was so much love and prayers for him. So part of the reason why I was going to like, I almost didn't talk about it on the toast. But part of the reason that I did is like when I spoke about Theo's heart murmur, so many people were like, my Cavalier, my dog has a heart murmur. Like he's fine. So I just was like really hoping for that sort of feedback and people being like, oh my God, I experienced the same thing.
Starting point is 00:02:26 My dog had a tumor on his throat. My dog had a tumor on his liver. And hearing those sorts of positive stories, like that's really why I spoke about it so I could read that feedback. So I did go searching for those types of comments. And like, I just want to say someone being like, same thing happened to my dog, literally died a week later.
Starting point is 00:02:42 You're not helpful and you need to stop. Sorry that happened to you, but do not week later you're not helpful and you need to stop sorry that happened to you but do not share that with me right I meant just the love for the do aside from you know personal testimonies and using like that like um getting medical information which is also always helpful that's how I felt about my sir Klaas yeah uh but there's so much love for do so much love for do from the toast community but also like people in my life like everywhere I had like my phone was blowing up yesterday just people being like oh my god theo what can i do so you know you really realize how many wonderful people you have in your life that's always like a
Starting point is 00:03:11 very small silver lining of situations like this how many people theo has touched like he is literally a cornerstone of this show the show is as old as he is no 100 we started the breath like six months before you got theo and then we started the toast like six months after he is. No, 100%. We started the breath like six months before you got Theo. Yeah. And then we started the toast like six months after. He is the show. He is the show. He has a big day today.
Starting point is 00:03:32 He has a CAT scan and a biopsy. And I'll know a lot more tonight. And then we'll figure it out. I was going to make a little joke. That the dog is getting a CAT scan? Yeah. It would be funny if Theo was a dog, you know? It would be. it would be funny if Theo was a dog you know it would be that would be funny that's why I didn't make the joke but he's not right because it's not funny when it's when it's not true yeah yeah it was an accurate I'm so glad we're on the
Starting point is 00:03:55 same page there I'm at my I've had an eye twitch for a week you know when like your eye involuntarily like just moves yeah like the lid see it can see it. So you sound crazy. Crazy. It is bothering the fuck out of me. Maybe close your eyes. Don't give him opportunity. I've been thinking about maybe securing an eye patch. Like if I wear it for like 24 to 48 hours,
Starting point is 00:04:16 maybe it'll stop. Maybe, but I also feel like you just want to wear an eye patch. I definitely like, I see the content that comes with an eye patch and I'm definitely excited by that. Yo-ho, yo-ho, a yo ho attorneys life for me Jackie how are you doing I'm doing well and I'm glad to see that you are doing well and that you found you know trying your your spirits seem well given the situation and that's that's all we can hope for at the moment I'm trying yesterday was like the worst day like literally canceled my whole day laid in bed took
Starting point is 00:04:50 a bath did nothing and then I had this dinner party that like honestly I was just dreading I did not want to leave the house I was in such a bad mood and as we were leaving I'm like oh why did I agree to this and when I got back in the car after I was so glad that I went I had such a nice time it was like a Jewish dinner party with just like a bunch of different Jewish celebs, influencers, like media people. And it was just like such good food, kosher food. We had brisket. It was actually like one of those uplifting.
Starting point is 00:05:14 Buoying. Buoying. And just really a fabulous night. And then I came home and watched the second half of the Kansas Philly game. And that was fabulous too. So things are, you know, I don't have any info on Theo, you know, in terms of turning around, but my spirit, I feel like whatever I put out
Starting point is 00:05:30 will affect the outcome of the results. And like, I need to be putting out positive energy. You need to be manifesting. No, I need to be putting out positive energy. Okay. I mean, I agree with you. I didn't get to watch the game because I couldn't get my TV on in
Starting point is 00:05:45 my bedroom and I was too lazy to fix it. So I just kept texting Zach for updates or I would walk out for a snack and find out who's winning. You know, you could like Google it too. My TV? No, I mean, you could Google that, but you can also just Google the score. Yeah, but it's just like a waste of thumb movements. But you were texting Zach anyway. No, but like we were just, we talk. Right, right. And I was going for my snacks. So it worked out. The Eagles won.
Starting point is 00:06:10 I'm happy for them. It was a crazy game because they didn't really have any sort of lead until the very, very end. And it was like they got their shit together at the end, right? As like Patty and the team were just like kind of stinking it up. And it was like a bad game for Travis Kelsey, which he really doesn't have, but he turned over the ball. He fumbled like a few times.
Starting point is 00:06:30 I mean, his girls going through it. Yeah. Maybe they're just like connected energy wise. And when one of them is, you know, kind of like Zayden and Violet, like when one of them is down,
Starting point is 00:06:39 the other one carries that with them. Yeah. Which is, you know, beautiful poetically, but not really for career wise. I obviously like was enjoying the game. I wasn't particularly rooting for anyone. If I was, I think I, if I had to think about it hard enough, I would have been rooting for the Eagles. Cause I don't know why. I just feel like everything happens for the Kansas city chiefs like so
Starting point is 00:07:01 easily. Do you know what I mean? Like they're just like always winning. I just feel like it's not even hard for them. Yeah, I'm happy that the Eagles had their shine. No offense during an irrelevant game. Like where was this energy in February? Jackie got fucking roasted to filth in the comments yesterday. Like she was wrong. We know that.
Starting point is 00:07:19 But calm down. I think I have to issue like a disclaimer about when we talk about sports. And that doesn't, and what you're about to say doesn't mean we're going to stop disclaimer about when we talk about sports. And that doesn't, and what you're about to say doesn't mean we're going to stop talking about sports because we're learning. We love talking about sports and we're listening and we're learning. I guess I have to say, and because it wasn't clear,
Starting point is 00:07:36 we are not sports experts. We're not, we have really a very limited idea of what's going on at any given time. We're very new to all of this and we're learning as we go. Yet, even as we learn things, we forget them. And we still make mistakes. And we don't and we don't know them for the next time. We don't know how all this works. And honestly, they make it confusing for a reason. They don't want you to know. So true. So, yeah, the game technically wasn't irrelevant and thirsty, but it felt that way. But it's been on the schedule like since day one. Yes, it's been on the schedule since last year. So it wasn't irrelevant and thirsty but it felt that way but it's been on the schedule like
Starting point is 00:08:05 since day one yes it's been on the schedule since last year so it wasn't thirsty for Taylor but I also wanted to clarify like it felt thirsty for Kelsey Bowl because the last Super Bowl like I didn't see you know a Bengals Rams matchup nobody gives a shit like people care about Kelsey Bowl so they're capitalizing on the brethren and that's all i was saying and when i was watching adjacent to zach last night and i was like tell me about this game like is it a little thirsty that the nfl put it on like is it something that would have happened first of all he starts trying to explain the nfc west afc claudia i wish i could have i wish i could have recorded it because i've never heard him like not only is it confusing.
Starting point is 00:08:46 He did a bad job explaining it. So I left even more confused. But he did say, yeah, it's a little bit, you know. Convenient. Convenient. Yeah. Yeah. So I just need everyone to calm down.
Starting point is 00:09:05 Like, it's so funny when you, like, poke a certain community and you don't realize. Like, that's what happened to me when I said that and I stand by what I said the bear was a bad show you don't respect waiters like oh my god calm down I just said it was a bad show like sometimes I saw a comment that was like you know roasting so going so hard like rude to me for not getting this football thing right and calling the NFL thirsty I would literally think it was Roger Goodell right yeah no like like who else has that much of a personal stake in me shading the NFL no that's the thing like that's the very interesting part of this job when we talk about a wide breadth of things sometimes you'll find a community you didn't even know existed that's extremely passionate. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:48 You need to calm down. Yeah. In the words of Taylor Swift. Also, I got to thinking last night when I was watching the game, because I feel like, you know, there are a lot of famous football players who are like famous in culture, and most of them are the quarterbacks. It's just like a position that's ripe with fame. and most of them are the quarterbacks. It's just like a position that's ripe with fame. And I was comparing Patrick Mahomes to Jalen Hurts,
Starting point is 00:10:09 who is the Eagles quarterback. And it got me thinking like why Jalen Hurts isn't more culturally famous. Like his team was in the Super Bowl. His team is amazing. They've been very good for a very long time. He's very handsome young thang. And then I was comparing him to Patrick Mahomes who's like in a skims ad and you know I just find like why why isn't he more famous
Starting point is 00:10:30 and not outside of football I I don't have the answer but if I might theorize which I'm sure everyone will then hand my ass to me again uh first of all how long has he been the quarterback I feel like at least like three years I mean let me look okay that's not like a a really long time but also I think being a quarterback is inherently you know you're in the spotlight but I think you can also choose how much you want to do outside of football like right Patrick Mahomes I think he likes the fame and he wants to do ad campaigns and he's like a silly, goofy personality guy and like wants to put himself out there. But I don't think that's for everyone. It is his third season with the Eagles and like they've been good for three seasons, you know, and they've always been good.
Starting point is 00:11:14 But like, but I also feel like aside from Jason Kelsey, I don't know many. I don't know the names of any Eagles players. I feel like they're more of a team and less of like a one man show. I actually know quite a few. I'm familiar with Lane Johnson. I'm familiar with Rick Lovato. And that's because their wives are toasters. So I understand that that's, you know, like a me thing. Yeah. I was also going to say, oh, another thing I was wrong about.
Starting point is 00:11:38 I really felt last night like the Chiefs were going to win this. Yeah. And then there would be a Super Bowl Chiefs-Eagles matchup. And then the Eagles would win. Right. That's a good theory. But it didn't come to fruition because they won last night. But I was also really happy that they won.
Starting point is 00:11:52 One, because I said like I just feel like sometimes everything is so easy for the Chiefs. Like I'd like to see like somebody work for it. And that was nice. But also Jason Kelsey was 0-3 going into this game against his brother. He's never beat his brother. And, you know, he's the older brother. And I feel like he's, you know, often overlooked because Travis is Travis. So for him to have gotten, you know, a win, I'm happy for him.
Starting point is 00:12:13 What's so funny, though, is in their family dynamic and the way that Travis sees it, he's always trying to catch up to Jason. Yeah, well, they play different positions. You can't really, like, evenly compare them in terms of, like, touchdowns. No, but, like, his whole life,, like Jason played football, so he played football. Jason did this. And I think there was like some scandal when they were in college together. And like, I think Travis always feels like he's in Jason's shadow.
Starting point is 00:12:33 But the way that we know them, it's like Travis first. Yeah. So I was happy that Jason got like a moment. And I, Ben was like, we could turn it off. I'm like, no, I need to see the brothers hug on the field. Like the game isn't over yet. And Jason was like so happy. And Travis was like, we could turn it off. I'm like, no, I need to see the brothers hug on the field. Like, the game isn't over yet. And Jason was, like, so happy. And Travis was like, miss.
Starting point is 00:12:48 I know the game wasn't irrelevant in terms of, like, counting towards their overall seasons. But, like, it's, I just, I wish they won, like, a Super Bowl sort of game. Like, this to me, I know it's not. But, like, it still feels like a scrimmage. Like, it's not the game. So now the Eagles are 9-1. They've only lost once. And do you know who they lost to the 49ers j-e-t-s jets the worst of the jets they lost to the worst team in the league
Starting point is 00:13:15 which is so interesting and the chiefs are now seven and three yikes yikes because like i don't know why I just if I had to just like say which team I thought was better like I would say the Chiefs maybe they just get more hype yeah and we just are watching their games yeah so I was happy for the Eagles girlies the e-girlies yeah and it was very interesting for them and then this is Thanksgiving weekend so apparently there's some big matchups you know some age old rivalries like the Lions are playing someone I'm not really familiar
Starting point is 00:13:48 with that matchup. Me neither but I know the Cowboys play every Thanksgiving Thursday. I don't know who they're playing but Dolly Parton
Starting point is 00:13:56 is the halftime show. Oh Jack Harlow is the halftime show I saw it on TV for Thanksgiving as well probably like a different game. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:07 Okay, here is the lineup. Packers, Lions, apparently an age-old beef. Very Midwest. The Commanders? That's Washington, formerly, football club, formerly. Oh, they're not a football club anymore? No, they got a name. I mean, football club never really made sense.
Starting point is 00:14:26 It sounds like something from Ted Lasso. No, it's like we're all football clubs. Right. Why are you different? I don't like the commandeers, commanders. I don't like it. Now it reminds me of fourth wing, commandment. Yes.
Starting point is 00:14:41 Hatchet. So they're playing the Cowboys. Oh. And then the 49ers are playing the seahawks draft day why draft day does that movie not take place in seattle no cleveland of course cleveland of course sorry okay so that's thursday thanks. Then Friday. Oh, this is a very Jewish game. Okay. Let me guess. Jets versus Giants?
Starting point is 00:15:09 So close. Jets versus Dolphins? Yes. That's like the most Jewish game on the planet. I can't explain it to you if you don't get it. Fins up. Fins up. I don't know if that's it, but it feels right.
Starting point is 00:15:23 The Buccaneers versus the Colts? Feels irrelevant. Oh, the Patriots versus giants a northeast battle the steelers versus the bangles and then there's like a million games on sunday i'm not going through all these okay cool i feel like if oh wait where the chiefs maybe they have a bye week oh no they're playing the vegas raiders and the eagles are playing the bills i feel like that'll be a good game a lot of people think those are like the best teams in the East Coast thing. It's not an East Coast. Oh yeah, no, Zach was talking about coasts last night
Starting point is 00:15:51 in his diatribe about the leagues. About the leagues, right? Like I don't think the leagues make sense geographically because the 49ers and the Eagles are in the same league. They're on opposite coasts. I don't even want to say what I think it is. Say it. Because I'm wrong. Say it. Like I think there opposite coasts. I don't even want to say what I think it is. Say it. Because I'm wrong.
Starting point is 00:16:05 Say it. Like, I think there's AFC. I never thought this until he tried to explain it to me last night. I think there's AFC and NFC. Yeah. And then within those leagues, there's like AFC East, AFC West. Yes, that's true. You're literally the meme right now with the math.
Starting point is 00:16:23 It shouldn't be this hard. No. It shouldn't be this hard. No, it shouldn't be this hard. Yet here we are. They just want to keep us down and uneducated. So true. But they don't know we're women in sports and we can't be stopped. No, and we're going to keep commenting on it as if we know. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:39 It's more fun that way, honestly. No, that's literally my life speaking on things with absolute certainty that like I really know nothing about though I just think it's worth mentioning I wasn't certain yesterday when I said this I I don't know you were being pretty adamant like was it you're like no turny it's a scrimmage oh but there was something I wasn't certain about I can't even remember So that's your football update Sorry if your ears are bleeding We can't be stopped No we seriously can't be
Starting point is 00:17:09 We're in our football eras you guys And I think we're gonna try out for the team No it brings us such joy Honestly I could see us down the line Becoming like a family that plays flag football on Thanksgiving That's like a thing Well yeah but we could do that anyway No but like now I could see it as a possibility
Starting point is 00:17:24 Yeah we could have done it before but now I think like we actually would. Or we should like go to a game as a family. Would love. Who would we go to? We don't even have a team. Oh, I'm a Jets 49ers fan. Like Jets for my soul, 49ers for my Instagram. Okay, so we would go to a Jets game?
Starting point is 00:17:45 It depends. Am I visiting you? Are you visiting me? I would go to a Dolphins Instagram. Okay. So we would go to a Jets game? It depends. Am I visiting you? Are you visiting me? I would go to a Dolphins game. Yeah. I just feel like the Dolphins need a rebrand. Like I'm not into their colors. It's so like ugly.
Starting point is 00:17:56 Yeah. I feel like ever since Ace Ventura, they never really. Dan Marino. Yes. They could never really achieve more than that. Jackie, sometimes like we literally have the same brain. Dan Marino. Yes. They could never really achieve more than that. Jackie, sometimes like we literally have the same brain. Dan Marino.
Starting point is 00:18:10 Ace Ventura. Pet Detective. That movie's so good. Yeah. That's one of the movies that like I think when we talk about like mean girls, like we quote it so much, but I don't think we acknowledge like the impact it had on us. I mean, Loser is from Ace Ventura. So true.
Starting point is 00:18:24 No, like that movie was impactful and like what a random movie like if somebody were to say like what's ace ventura pet detective about i would be like i don't like i literally don't know i think there was a a dolphin die went missing went missing went missing and he's also i'm pretty sure that movie is like canceled. Why? In some circles and that it didn't age well. Oh, I haven't seen it in a while. Why? I'm going to botch it, but something about the storyline is like
Starting point is 00:18:53 a man pretending to be a woman and I think it's transphobic. Who's pretending to be a woman? One of the villains, something. You know what? Oh, you are right. I know what you're talking about. I need to rewatch it, and I'll let you know if it stands the test of time.
Starting point is 00:19:10 But it sounds like it doesn't. It's been branded transphobic, Turdy. Okay. Another one bites the dust. We've got a great show. We've got five stories, correct? I mean, actually, it's funny that you ask because you never do but we actually had six stories and I was thinking during the ad break I'll whittle them down
Starting point is 00:19:30 but they've whittled themselves because we already discussed one of them oh the game the game okay that's good which is good because I had another Travis story and like it's just becoming the morning Kelsey over here so it worked itself out as it always does. Let me ask you a question. Are you feeling at all fatigued in terms of, I feel like when we talk about a story a lot, it gets like kind of old at some point. And it's like, there are more stories and you don't know if you should choose them
Starting point is 00:19:55 because they're relevant. But like we've been talking about it nonstop. Do you feel any sort of fatigue with the Kelsey Bowl, Taylor of it all? To me, they're two separate things. Like Kelsey Bowl, I'm still juiced up over. Like we haven't talked about the brethren in that long and they're just hysterical
Starting point is 00:20:10 and it's just good, good, clean fun. It's good, clean fun. I support family. So no, not fatigued on that. The Taylor Travis relationship, I'm not fatigued, but I just need to be mindful of not making it a story every single day and not doing like small potatoes, just big potatoes.
Starting point is 00:20:26 The big stuff. Yeah, yeah. Okay, that's fair. So that's my theory. Let me know if it's working for you guys or, you know, don't let me know. I'll probably continue to do the same thing. So just letting you know, my phone is on just in case I get a phone call. So if you hear anything.

Starting point is 00:24:08 that's papayareusables.com code toast merry christmas and happy hanukkah from papaya thank you law you're welcome our first story is it sad no i was just reading about the potential hostage deal i wanted to see if it went through, but I don't see anything. Sorry. Sorry. I'm not sidetracked. I'm switching it up, and you know what? I decided I want to talk more about Taylor Travis and Mama Kelsey
Starting point is 00:24:36 because in his wide-ranging interview with the Wall Street Journal yesterday, and I saw this yesterday, but I've just been ruminating on it, and I want to talk about it. Travis talked about how his mom, Donna, regretted her initial response to the awkward Taylor Swift question oh on the today show yeah she did an interview and it came off that like she was not feeling Taylor but she just didn't want to overstep and she felt really bad about it so Donna's Kelsey still feels regret over her answer when asked about her son Travis Kelsey's relationship with Taylor Swift during an interview last month the Kelsey matriarch uh
Starting point is 00:25:10 opened up to Wall Street Journal magazine about her son's budding romance with Taylor during her sit-down interview on the Today Show in October she seemingly came off unenthusiastic about Swift but in reality she simply didn't want to overstep and oversharing once the interview had aired Travis immediately called his mom to assure her that she did a good job after saying she spent spending time with Taylor was quote okay yeah while she still looks back in regret over her underwhelming answer Donna didn't hold back her gushing over Taylor now she said I can tell you this he's happier than I've seen him in a long time god bless him he shot for stars. Like the story kind of makes me sick. Like she's like, you know, lamenting over this interview. She shouldn't have been asked that. Like
Starting point is 00:25:50 she's not a media trained celebrity. She's just a mom. And I like feel bad that she's like sitting, stewing, regretting, thinking. And like when it happened, she was probably bugging like, oh my God, is Travis going to be mad at me? And I don't think Taylor by any means, I think Taylor's really understanding of like how media works. And I don't think she would have thought for a second that like Donna Kelsey went on the Today Show to shade you know her son's new boyfriend but like I I didn't I didn't need her to apologize or like address this you know what like she did what she had to do I was when I watched it I didn't think for a second she was being nasty I thought for sure she was uncomfortable and she just didn't want to overstep Taylor who's like this notoriously private person
Starting point is 00:26:23 who's the biggest star on the planet like please Donna you're fine yeah but I understand why she said just okay now I understand why she feels regret because it came off like oh I'm so not impressed right my new potential daughter-in-law when it's none of those things right like I guess if you watched it and you're like an alien visiting for Mars you could be like oh you know this person's dismissive but that's so not anyone with any sort of like critical thinking ability would know that this is much more layered than that, Donna. And I'm pretty sure that's what we said when we mentioned it. Like, it's not this. Speaking of things that are not this, this isn't a story, but it's a perfect segue because Snoop Dogg announced that he's you know giving up smoke yeah and in his
Starting point is 00:27:07 partnership with Solo Stove he no longer has smoke in his life but he is still smoking marijuana so it was a very sort of elaborate partnership I think it was brilliant honestly I love Solo Stove a former Toast sponsor come back where have you guys been um and I love the Solo Stove, a former Toast sponsor. Come back. Where have you guys been? And I love the Solo Stove product. And I thought this was great. Like, really, that's how you make waves. It's so hard these days. I feel like everybody's so used to, like, seeing, you know when you're being targeted for some sort of product.
Starting point is 00:27:36 Like, consumers are much, like, savvier than they used to be. So it's hard to really, like, pull one over and shock people as a brand. And I think that's what's so exciting about the Superbowl is like everybody does the most. And this was kind of Superbowl level. Yeah, I was actually thinking when I saw the announcement, I was like, oh, when's the Superbowl? And I'm like, oh no, it's not to do with it. But it's something that you would do
Starting point is 00:27:55 like the week before the Superbowl and then the commercial years during the Superbowl. So I love a brand like doing the most and it's holiday season, Q Q4 very important time of year. So it was strategic. It was very smart and I enjoyed it. And I think you know people who thought about his announcement that he was quitting smoking you know they thought of it a little suspiciously and they thought of it you know more critically than others like ourselves. They were right.
Starting point is 00:28:20 Yeah. I did see it in the article that people were being doubters. I don't know if I would have come to that conclusion on my own. I didn't have the opportunity. No, you're right. You're right. Like everybody else. When somebody said the edible thing, I was like, yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:32 But I can't say that I would have because I don't know. I didn't have the opportunity. I thought this was great. Like I really, they got us, you know? Yeah. I'm sure they paid him a boatload of money to really like for a few days, put his brand up in the air like that. Right, like kind of offer this sort of questionable message.
Starting point is 00:28:50 Yeah. Yeah, no, he must have been paid a lot. But it all worked out. That's like also another brand publicity moment this week. Do you see the Stanley thing? Obsessed. So a woman, her car was on fire. I think she got into some sort of like her car
Starting point is 00:29:05 literally blew up yeah like there's no car left really to speak of it's ashes the stanley that was in her cup holder remained intact and so not only that the ice inside the cup was still in cubes it had it melted from the fire that That's insane. And as if that's not a good enough endorsement for Stanley already, like it will withstand all of that. The CEO of Stanley then bought her a new car. Right. So her video went totally viral. She's like, you guys look at my car. It's like, it literally was black ashes, like fog smoke. And then she pulled her Stanley out of the cup holder. Like it was a little banged up. It wasn't perfect, but it was perfectly intact. And then she shook it and there was ice in there.
Starting point is 00:29:46 And everybody was like, what? The video went so viral. So then the CEO of Stanley stitched it on TikTok and responded being like, this is amazing. This is such a testament to how our products are made. We so appreciate, we're so sorry. We're obviously gonna replace your Stanley and we're also gonna replace a brand new car.
Starting point is 00:30:02 And it was honestly like the best money marketing could buy like now everybody like feels you know warmly about Stanley as a company like this girl lost her car and they're doing the right thing and going above and beyond by giving her a new car her video was really highlighted the the quality of of their cups I was shook and now everybody just looks at them favorably and they didn't have to spend a lot of money. This is like billions of impressions and they've just spent the cost of a car. Yeah, billions of impressions. Cause I think I saw, I didn't see her initial video,
Starting point is 00:30:31 but I saw it as a story because he was buying her a car. Like brilliant. Brilliant. Like there are ways to get creative when you're trying to make waves. That is the perfect segue to our next story. Cause our next story is a little more brands getting in on the fun. Okay.
Starting point is 00:30:47 Chipotle renamed their Kansas City location to honor Travis Kelsey's 2011 misspelled tweet after the hilarious post resurfaced amid his romance with Taylor Swift. So in 2011, Travis Kelsey tweeted, went from class to therapy. Now I need some hashtag Chipotle. And then I'm off to check out my new apartment. So Kansas City's Chipotle location renamed themselves Chipotle. Like renamed how? Like a new sign?
Starting point is 00:31:16 A new sign. Wow. Well, let me say, I don't think Travis's tweet was a typo. A lot of people who like, who love Chipotle call it Chipotle. Like it's like Tarjay. Okay. So it's like a thing people say. So I don't think it was a like mishap or a mistake,
Starting point is 00:31:34 but that doesn't make this any less funny and fun. And also the official Chipotle Twitter account did rename themselves Chipotle, at least for, you know, for the time being. And they replied and said it's me hi cute cute no it's fun like this is where I feel like being the social media manager uh and social media managing is like a job that's mostly women they're young girls and I feel
Starting point is 00:31:59 like it's a job that people think is like irrelevant and like they don't put respect on that name they're like oh yeah Bob from finance you know but moments like this like you really have an opportunity to make so many so much news so many impressions and this is fabulous a win for the social media managers yes but it is also a fine line sometimes it's not all just fun and games as a social media manager as we have discussed you know you go out drinking, which account did you post to Instagram? The Pope. But also, like, sometimes brands try and get in on the fun, and then the party's ruined.
Starting point is 00:32:32 It's like... No, it's really important that your social media manager obviously understand, like, how the world works, but also is an extremely self-aware person. Yeah, and self-aware on behalf of your brand. Yes. It's a delicate balance balance but this hits it out of the park a lot of brands are really doing good stuff this week congrats yeah congrats brands
Starting point is 00:32:53 congrats brands and then with the super bowl coming up I mean the super bowl is always coming up no but like it's actually coming up now it's like three months away for sure but now it's like the holidays are coming up so like the brands go hard yeah well that's actually a great segue to our next sponsor which is Spritz Society having a major Black Friday sale the segues are on fire today turdy Lou so it's the biggest sale of the year Black Friday if you've been waiting for Spritz Society to go on sale launching tomorrow the entire site will be 35% off, plus, I'm not done, free shipping.

Starting point is 00:34:26 You're welcome, Fa. Our next story is more holiday shopping news. Cheermeister? The holiday cheermeister this year is Jennifer Lawrence as she laughed off a wardrobe malfunction at the Saks Holiday Lighting Ceremony. Jennifer Lawrence handled a wardrobe malfunction like a pro during the Saks Fifth Avenue
Starting point is 00:34:44 Holiday Lighting Ceremony on Monday night. I don't know if it was like a pro, but Saks Fifth Avenue holiday lighting ceremony on Monday night. I don't know if it was like a pro, but it did play very well. No, it was cute and funny, but like it wasn't subtle. No, it wasn't subtle. The Oscar winner was giving a speech before unveiling the department store and Dior's Carousel of Dreams 2023 holiday window displays when her belt unexpectedly popped off and fell to the ground. It didn't unexpectedly pop off.
Starting point is 00:35:07 She goes up to the microphone and she starts to talk. And the microphone is so much louder than she anticipated that the sound of her voice scared the shit out of her. So she like jumped back and her belt popped off. Got it. Oh, right. So then she said, I'm so sorry. That was so loud.
Starting point is 00:35:20 That was so loud. My belt popped off. Yeah. When I saw the video, I thought she was saying her belt popping off was loud no no no the microphone scared her which is such a turdy move like the sound of your own voice scaring you never for you no no yes for me I'm not talking about my singing voice I'm talking like I could literally be talking and I'm like oh my god and it was just like my voice scaring me oh you being scared by things yeah even if it's something that I'm doing like talking got it for sure yeah anyways um she looked gorgeous oh my god she looked gorgeous like I'm looking at the pictures of her up there and it's like is it the lighting or is it her I mean
Starting point is 00:35:55 I guess everyone looks her they also look nice the other presenters but she looks unreal no she looks sick I believe she's some like ambassador or face of Dior, which is why she was selected for this partnership. Yeah, she has been a Dior ambassador since 2012. Also, I'm pretty sure it was a Dior belt. So that's really not a great advertisement. Like your belt should stay on even when the microphone's loud. Yikes.
Starting point is 00:36:17 So true. But how do you balance that with us now talking about the Saks Dior event, even though we never would have talked about that before, even if she was there and everything went smoothly. Ever, so true. So many impressions now that the toast is talking about it and it'll make up for the loss of belt sales. Right, I think net, net, this is a good thing.
Starting point is 00:36:34 If I was a social media manager, I would say, don't worry guys, it's good. And what would you tweet about the belt? Back to the factory to tighten up those seams. Someone's getting fired. No, like I would literally like go to like where they make belts. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:36:50 Do you make it in like a factory or like a atelier? Yeah, atelier. And I would interview like one of the seamstresses and she would be telling us what she's, you know, reconfiguring so that the belt you buy this holiday season won't snap off. Or maybe it's like interviewing the seamstress and getting to know her story. And maybe, yeah, maybe a seam was skipped,
Starting point is 00:37:09 but it's because she's been going through something. No, and then it turns into an episode of Undercover Boss, where they buy her a new house. And a new car and a Stanley. Okay, funny. First of all. Second of all, I love that we are now in the time of year, like the department stores are doing their thing. And even though New York becomes like a torture chamber during the
Starting point is 00:37:30 holiday season because everybody flocks here to shop, to see the big trees, the big Christmas lights at Saks, it's undeniably magical. And this is exciting. This is like the official, you know, start. Yeah. Right before Thanksgiving. So exciting. I actually just printed my recipes. I've got to do my holiday shop. It's, it's starting. You know, when I walked home from work yesterday, this building I pass every day to and from work had their big Christmas tree up. They're like a big office building that like has a kind of an iconic tree.
Starting point is 00:38:01 And I actually was having such a bad day yesterday, especially after the toast. Like I just, I had nothing left to give in that tree. Like Christmas joy and Christmas spirit like is real. It's real. The holiday cheer meister is real. Yeah. So thank you, Jennifer Lawrence, because I probably wouldn't have even like known or cared
Starting point is 00:38:17 that like the Saks thing lit up last night. But okay, let's play a fun game. How would you rank like the major department stores in New York, their window displays? And the stores are include Saks, Bergdorf's, Bloomingdale's, Macy's. Bloomingdale's is really bad. Wow you think so? Yeah I don't know what their holiday is this year but like that's probably the store that I frequent the most and their windows do nothing they give they don't inspire me to buy anything. They're not really on the same level as like Saks or Bergdorf's at all.
Starting point is 00:38:48 I think Bergdorf's is number one. That's their thing. But I think everybody else is stepping their pussy up like Saks. Saks, honestly, Saks is a really, really close second. I'll have to see the ones this year to make my decision. But you're right, like Bergdorf,
Starting point is 00:38:59 if you ever saw the documentary Scatter My Ashes at Bergdorf's, like they talk about the window displays. They're like year round projects. They have artists from all over the world working on it for years and years like it's amazing yeah so they have the number one spot but i think people are coming for their neck yeah macy's is like a lot i think it's like a little tacky what's great about sacks and burgdorf's is like it's opulence but it's very tasteful and like tailored sacks I mean Macy's is just like lights shit trees like it's so much that's also the holiday sometimes it's
Starting point is 00:39:31 a little too taste a little too tailored where's where's the nuttiness where's the holiday nut while Macy's doesn't have the holiday windows like on lock they do have the Thanksgiving Day parade which is one of my favorite things of all time even though like the older i get the more i realize like it's dumb and fake but i love it it's so fake but then but then when you have kids like the love comes back and you start again the magic let us see who's in the parade this year what we can look forward to yeah um poons, and more. Okay, here's the parade. Yeah, we know.
Starting point is 00:40:07 It's literally the same every year. Thanks. Oh, my gosh. I feel like the parade is, like, very last minute, like whoever's available. But it is last minute now. It's two days away. The parade will be kicked off by multi-instrumentalist
Starting point is 00:40:19 and Grammy winner John Batiste. There will be performances by a bunch of people. I'm going to read the people that we know. David Foster and Catherine McPhee. Yeah, they have a new holiday album out. Jesse James Decker. Okay. Pregnant Queen.
Starting point is 00:40:35 Ashley Park with some Muppets. Ooh, close your ears. Pentatonix. Okay, I will say the only time it's acceptable to embrace Pentatonix is the holiday season. So I'll allow it. And that song that you introduced me to. Oh, my God. It can be miracles.
Starting point is 00:40:52 Their version. Honestly, this might be the craziest thing I've ever said. Like, it's as good as Mariah and Whitney. Like, it's really good. It's so good. Also, this is newsworthy for a reason. Broadway will be represented by performances from ann juliette back to the future of the musical how to dance in ohio shucked and spam a lot will spongebob be there
Starting point is 00:41:11 ethan slater oh my god maybe ari will be at the event or maybe she'll be in like a penthouse on columbus avenue on the upper west side like watching from above 100 like in a big blanket yeah and this year santa will be accompanied on his sleigh by the one and only Cher. Wow. She's preparing to release a 25th anniversary edition
Starting point is 00:41:31 of her Grammy winning album, Believe, and she just dropped her new album, Christmas. That's a big get for the parade. I feel like the talent
Starting point is 00:41:39 over the last couple of years is definitely less premium than it used to be. This is Cher's major. This isn't a great lineup. No, it's not. I'm so glad you be this is Cher's major this isn't a great lineup no it's not it's usually like a little better and they usually have a lot of like pretty big country people because it's really like a parade that the whole country watches yeah like where's Gavin DeGraw honestly where the fuck is Kelly where the fuck but Kelly's at a place in her life
Starting point is 00:42:01 where she doesn't have to do things like this. But let me just say something. She has nestled her way into the hearts of millions of Americans. And on Thanksgiving morning, we want to see you. Like that's the price. Here's the responsibility. That's the price that you pay for being such a joyful part of our lives. Like we want to see you on these big, joyful occasions. Yes, I will say, though, I think as a, if you're a performer,
Starting point is 00:42:24 I think once you get to a certain level like the Thanksgiving Day Parade is probably like the worst gig on the planet. You don't sing live. You're fucking freezing. You're standing out there forever. It's the crack of dawn and it's a holiday so if you don't live in New York you're away from your family. No I know but I think there are some people. Who have a duty. Who have a duty people who have a duty who have a duty to show up for us on those days yeah it's not always fun in games being america's sweetheart it's not it's hard work someone's got to do it and kelly's not doing it no so but honestly like there should be a few bigger names here sorry i am in agreement like like also a little bit more relevant peeps I also
Starting point is 00:43:06 feel like if Macy's doesn't step it up like someone's gonna come out from under them like the Netflix day parade and all of a sudden like Bebe Finn is flying through the air I'm really glad you brought that up because it does feel like Macy's is hanging on to that partnership by the hair of their chinny chin chin it's been their thing for so long and I'm not against them being the sponsor it's so New York it's so classic I think it nods you know to a more simpler time but I agree like the parade has severely gotten worse in terms of everything like production some of those fucking balloons have been around since the 80s and like it's okay like they're not relevant to the kids anymore like Clifford can go it's my mom's from the 80s yeah literally
Starting point is 00:43:45 like they need to step their pussy up majorly and they need to get like a streaming partner like why why doesn't it stream on Peacock you know like it needs to be a little bit more 21st century just saying it might stream on Peacock it definitely does but like that's how irrelevant it is I didn't even know that no no no like I'm just saying like it's on NBC right yeah so like it definitely goes to Peacock after oh no I'm sorry it's on like a bunch of networks NBC syndicates no I feel like it's also because I remember Kelty did oh yeah like everybody films the parade I guess right Macy's like doesn't really do it with one. Right, because I think Kelty was on CBS. I remember that. We'll find out on Thursday.
Starting point is 00:44:31 I mean, I feel like. Also, for the parents, here are the kid balloons that are coming through. Recurring giant balloons include Bluey, Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Paw Patrol, Ryan's World, Pikachu, Ronald McDonald. I mean, for real like pikachu stewart the minion and spongebob squarepants oh he's doing double duty he's booked he's booked and busy wait and then new balloons beagle scout snoopy blue cat and chugs kung fu pandas po leo monkey d luffy pillsbury dough boy yum and uncle dan they'll also be lego peanuts baby shark teenage Monkey D. Luffy Pillsbury Doughboy Yum Obsessed And Uncle Dan They'll also be
Starting point is 00:45:07 Lego Peanuts Baby Shark Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles And Sesame Street Where the fuck is Mickey? Harry's not gonna be happy about this Mickey
Starting point is 00:45:15 Where is Mickey? Miska Muska Mickey Mouse I don't know Hot Dog Hot Dog I don't know. Hot dog. Hot dog.
Starting point is 00:45:36 Hot dog, hot dog, hot diggity dog. That song fucking slaps. That song goes so hard. If I ever become. Doing so. If I ever become like a true well-respected vocalist, I will perform at the parade. will be on the meekie float I will bring Harry and I will sing that song but like my I'll put my own spin on it more of like an acoustic you know I'll have like a accompanying
Starting point is 00:45:55 guitar there's a long version of it on Spotify like it goes into this grab my boots and a sandwich. Let's start a parade. It's get the coconut drum kit. I'm ready to play. Ba ba da ba ba ba ba da ba ba ba da ba ba ba ba. It goes, Claudia, like these songs, they go crazy. But OK, I don't know if this is an insult to you, but it's not meant to be. Oh, I love sentences that start that way. It's not meant to be. OK. You love sentences that start that way. But it's not meant to be.
Starting point is 00:46:25 Okay. You should be performing at the Mason's Thanksgiving Day Parade. Okay, that is an insult, but I don't disagree. Also, if you're an adult watching, my favorite game to play is like catch the lip-syncing flubs because they also have like guitar. They have like, if they're a band, they have their instruments. If they're not a band, they still have like guitar they have like if they're a band they have their instruments if
Starting point is 00:46:45 they're not a band they still have like a backup pianist and nothing is live not the piano not the guitar not the music not the track not the singing and they never know like when to properly start my favorite thing is catching them like fuck up there's it's so easy to it's literally like no and like a few years ago it came out that every nobody performs live on the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade and so they don't have to pretend anymore yeah and they've given up the jig is up the jig is officially up oh Jax is taking a break why don't you grace everyone with a song while I blow my nose And it's a fun time song. Hot dog, hot dog, hot diggity dog. Hot dog, hot dog, hot diggity dog.
Starting point is 00:47:34 Someone turn the air on like in the middle of the show in here. And it's just so cold. My nose is running. I also just remembered that I drove to work because it was so fucking cold. And it was like the worst mistake ever. There was so much traffic. It would have been so much faster to walk. And I parked illegally. I know my car is going to be towed when I
Starting point is 00:47:46 go outside like I just know it how fun for Ben to pick it up today yeah glad we closed this afternoon um okay it feels like the end of the show but we still have two more stories oh my god I know our next story someone who will never perform at the Thanksgiving Day Parade, I feel like I can say with confidence. Wait, let me think. Let me think. Let me think. Are they a singer? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:13 I don't know. Adele. Oh, facts. Facts. Adele appears to confirm she and Rich Paul are officially married. Oh. Adele reportedly confirmed that she and Rich Paul tied the knot. The six-time Grammy winner is said to have shared the news
Starting point is 00:48:28 at her longtime friend Alan Carr's comedy gig in L.A. on Saturday. Two members of the audience recounted Adele's purported admission to celebrity gossip Instagram account, Du Moi. They said, I was at Alan Carr's comedy show in L.A. tonight, and Adele was in the audience. Alan asked the crowd if anyone got married recently, and Ade shouted I did another attendee told Dumois when he asked if anyone got married recently she yelled I did super cute all around and was super sweet but dipped right before it ended um I feel like this would be on brand I think like her and Rich Paul are like even if
Starting point is 00:49:01 they're not legally married like they're they're in like they're legit you know they're steady and her doing it like totally privately is so Adele like giving us nothing. I know. But I'm happy for her like I guess. It is Adele and it isn't because she's like actually public with her relationship right now. I feel like they just didn't have a big wedding maybe while she was in Vegas they were like what if we just. Certain things like Adele doesn't fuck around with and like she never shows her son like she's very very she's like a she's a girly and she chats and she loves you know to go out with the girls but when it comes like her family and her actual private life like she really doesn't share much yeah that's true wouldn't even know her son's name for like five years remember and what is his name Antonio something like that yeah right so I actually this is like, if true, extremely
Starting point is 00:49:46 on brand. I could see it being true. Yeah. And lovely. And I feel like whether or not they got married, like they will be together for a very long time, if not forever. Like marriage, it's all the same. It's all the same. And like, it's nice to, for her to go into this marriage. Like, you know, she had to give half. What'd she give her ex guy? 70 million dollars? She did. Yeah. It was like one of those crazy things.
Starting point is 00:50:10 But this is a person who is extremely successful. Not on the same level as Adele. But like up there. And you know she's going into this now with the knowledge from her first. She's probably much more protected. Yeah. And so I feel good about this. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:24 And. Because I feel like people who go through really bad divorces they like don't they stop believing in marriage and like love even and they're just they become so like hard yeah but she's been softened no but like if anything you go into the next one with so much more experience and knowledge and like you know what to do what you did right what you did. So I feel like second marriages are, can be fabulous. Yeah. Another chance at love.
Starting point is 00:50:52 Speaking of love, are you ready for our fifth of final story? The segues are just writing themselves this afternoon. Claudia, they literally are. Speaking of love and marriage, first comes love, then comes marriage,
Starting point is 00:51:03 then comes a baby in the baby carriage. Let me think. Who's pregnant? Who? For Bliss and Zach of Love is Blind. Yeah. Love is Blind's Bliss is pregnant, expecting her first baby. I feel like for them, it wasn't first comes love, then comes marriage.
Starting point is 00:51:19 I feel like it was first comes marriage, then comes love. First comes Irina, then comes marriage, then comes love, then comes baby in the baby carriage. And I feel like when they did that Love is Blind reunion, they talked about they were at a fertility doctor, like they were struggling a little bit. Yeah. And they were showing us the journey. So they've been wanting to start a family.
Starting point is 00:51:35 And now they are sharing that they are having a baby. The couple did an exclusive People magazine interview and photo shoot. Bliss said, it's a little bit nerve wracking, but I think it's also such a beautiful thing. Babies are miracles and blessings. And I think we've been so open to sharing our journey and our relationship with the world. And this is our next big, beautiful thing.
Starting point is 00:51:55 I'm really happy and I hope that it brings joy to other people. It's definitely brought us a ton of joy. That's really nice. Like they, for me, are so random. Like I, I just, I just I didn't yeah I know you were when we were watching it like I did not believe in these people's loves like I just I couldn't see how how this could be real but like we always say there is proof in the pudding there's proof in the longevity they're having a child now is this the first love is blind baby because amber and barnett don't have kids that's a very good point uh i don't think lauren and cameron hamilton speed don't i feel like people magazine
Starting point is 00:52:35 would have noted that and there you know you know bart what was his name bart no um artiste yeah i mean he had like a baby but not with someone from the show yeah and so did uh Mark who was 24 and Jessica was 34 like he had a baby too so people have had babies but not couples who got married on the show yeah no there's a big difference like I feel like this is the first one I think so too first that comes to mind for me right good call so from their season they're still going strong and so are Chelsea and Kwame yeah is that it I feel like there was another strong couple from their season all the seasons really like mixed together I'll have to ask Zach because he's a love is blind expert he'll be so happy to hear about this no it's actually really sweet like I should text him
Starting point is 00:53:23 it I'll text him the news and you're. Like when we always say like couples who are like really meant to be like start to look alike. And I actually think these two look alike. When I saw the picture of them holding the bump, I'm like, oh, siblings. It's so funny. Like if you're if your baby announcement doesn't look like two cousins having a baby, like it's not going to last. You know what I've realized? Well, one, one when people date they start to look like one another when they get married and everything but when you have a child and usually the child looks like a bit of each of you it's like the husband looks like the kid and the kid looks like the the mom therefore the dad and the mom look alike. Like if A equals B and B equals C, then A equals C.
Starting point is 00:54:06 Yeah, but A doesn't equal C. But I appreciate the logic. I'm telling you. Start to think. Start. You'll see. A equals C. A equals C.
Starting point is 00:54:17 And what does B equal? A and C. That's the point. Thank you for asking that question. That was like the one thing we learned in math class like I actually understood. A equals C. That's the point. Thank you for asking that question. That was like the one thing we learned in math class. Like I actually understood. A equals B and B equals C. So like, duh, A equals C.
Starting point is 00:54:34 You know, that's literally what I'm saying. Yeah, I know. I'm not talking about like your dumb theory about the kids. I'm talking about like math. Yeah. Chain reaction. Chain reaction. Right.
Starting point is 00:54:44 Remember when we learned like logic and math that shit was so dumb right but look we're literally we use it in everyday life even one plus one equals sock they didn't teach us that in school but it's the same thinking no we could do like a college course on one plus one equals sock like a like a mini mini we could call it SOC 101. We could. So those were actually very good stories. I feel like we all in all covered like eight stories because there were breakout sessions from each of them.
Starting point is 00:55:15 There were. And we love to foster breakout sessions in our work. And that's what you'll get in SOC 101. That is, I will say, like that part of college, like the big lectures and then like the breakout sessions what they call it recitation that was like some of my least favorite shit of all time those TAs thought they were such fucking hot shit I'm like calm down yeah TAs man did it ever um was that ever something you wanted to do like as a as an undergrad no because as a dumb bitch i wasn't qualified but so are tas grad students
Starting point is 00:55:48 or undergrad no they're undergrad students who i guess have excelled in the course question paid to be a ta question mark i believe so question as you fucking should you do all the work for that dumb ass professor yeah i've never was struck so much by my TA experience. No, I was. I was like, you're a nerd. Get away from me. But also, like, isn't there a storyline and gossip girl once they get to college? Like Serena fucks one of the TAs? I think he's a full-blown professor, but yeah. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:56:16 Because like, fucking a TA is like fucking a classmate. It's like not a big deal. No, of course. Also. No, but we put TAs like on a pedestal. No, you do. You're literally nobody literally you do no I think everyone does okay first of all I never really thought twice
Starting point is 00:56:30 about my TAs maybe it's different at every school but can someone explain like TAs are undergrads like I didn't say that with certainty now I'm just doubting everything and so are RAs yeah I only say they're undergrads because we didn't have a grad school at Colgate so if we had TAs they were students oh NYU was like a grad school a grad school at Colgate. So if we had TAs, they were students. Oh, NYU was like a grad school, a law school. Right, so it's confusing. But I do believe that just maybe every school is different. Maybe.
Starting point is 00:56:54 But I am sorry to the TA who hurt you, clearly. No, I honestly just like remember what I just remember thinking. I'm like, you're a loser. Like he just really, he was on a fucking power trip. I'm like, calm a loser like you like he just really he was on a fucking power trip I'm like calm the fuck down down calm down yeah he just thought he was such hot shit like he was like a decently looking person and I think he just like loved being like a teacher you love the ta life yeah and like back then like you like you respected authority and now in hindsight I'm like you're literally two years older than me.
Starting point is 00:57:26 Sit the fuck down, bitch. Yeah. He was your wing leader. Yes. Yes. It's giving Datos. Danatos. Danatos. It's giving Danatos. Danatos.
