Starting point is 00:00:00 Good morning, Millennials, and welcome back to The Toast. Happy Tuesday. No. What day is it? Oh my God. That's what happens when you come on a Tuesday. We give ourselves a false short week. We're going up.
Starting point is 00:00:12 It's the illusion of a short week. On a Tuesday. And it's an extra special week because it's content week here at The Toast. Content week is kind of like toasty shark week. Okay, so obviously you and I have been churning out content left, right, and center. Like we've gone viral four times yesterday and you guys don't even know the stuff like we filmed that we haven't even shown you yet. Like I'm so excited. So we're living in a content house. Yeah. What is the name of our content house?
Starting point is 00:00:33 I think Toast House. Okay. Especially with all the bread, it's Toast House. Yeah. It's so true. There's a lot of bread. So just quick update from yesterday. We had an amazing day. We killed it on our health journeys. We did. We were so active. We got so much work done. We filled, you know, this place with so much love. No, literally zero complaints. Full day. I don't think that we even went our separate ways until like 10 o'clock and we weren't even watching TV or anything or anything like we were. We had a meaningful time. We had a a late dinner which is such an adult thing to do is to like cook dinner after the kids go to bed I don't usually do it sometimes I'll eat after they go to bed but I'm just like Taylor Farms or Miracle Noodle I want
Starting point is 00:01:14 to say I didn't like it like eating at 8 30 yeah me neither we were and then that cleaning pickleball time and we never got to play pickleball yeah I'm gonna eat with the kids but the kids like I think we need to meet somewhere in the middle the kids eating at five 30 and us eating at nine. Like, why don't we all just eat at seven? Well, these days the kids eat earlier so that they can go back outside because it's cooler at that time. So that's why they eat so early. They don't usually eat so early, but they're inside until dinner and then they can go outside because it's nice and shady. What did we even do yesterday? Like, I did Redheads. New episode drops tomorrow. Get excited.
Starting point is 00:01:46 We went a little grocery shopping. Right, right. Did anyone win the Powerball last night? Jackie and I went to the grocery store, and we didn't have any cash, and I was feeling really upset because I felt like it was like a moment. Like, you know when you feel something special, like with the lottery in particular. And I was like, I'm with my swirly. It's Tuesday.
Starting point is 00:02:03 The numbers come out Tuesday and Friday. I have a good feeling. But we didn't have our wallets on us, which I felt like was a sign. I always had my wallet on me. Like we could go and get cash. And I feel like because the one time I didn't meant that like it was not for us. And I know that like, it's the law that you have to buy lottery tickets with cash. And I actually don't understand it. Well, what if you buy them on credit, you don't pay off your bill, and then you win? Does the bank own it? Oh, that's why. Thanks.
Starting point is 00:02:30 Okay. That just seems logical to me. That's the answer. I guess you could pay off your bill when you win, but then they're like, hey, that was our money. Whose money is it when you use a credit card? No, by the way. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:02:39 Yeah, that's it. Okay, cool. Because, you know, we're Apple Pay girls, and I kind of buy some lottery tickets with Apple Pay. No. Now, I don't think anybody won last night, right? Because we would have heard about it. And don't they usually say when a winning ticket is sold?
Starting point is 00:02:50 Before even like the numbers get announced? It's the Mega Millions. It's at like 500 mil or something. Every time I come down here, the Mega Millions is like hitting a new. I do not know. We could go back. But I was also saying, because you were saying, and that's crazy to think that that's not like meant for us.
Starting point is 00:03:05 You know, what's meant for you won't pass you by. But the lottery curse is real. Jackie, we're too smart to fall into that trope. Like seriously, we would do such good things with our lottery. And we always end up talking about the lottery when I'm in Florida. Because I'm sorry, like winning tickets only get sold in Florida or California. Yeah, because, you know, California is obviously the elk of dreamers. Floridians are the elk of lotto winners.
Starting point is 00:03:25 Like, that's just what it is. I don't make the rules. And I feel like if I if there's ever a chance of me winning the lottery, it's when I'm staying down here. OK, but, you know, with family like mine, I've already won the lottery. Turtle squirtle. That's so sweet. That is so sweet.
Starting point is 00:03:40 That is so sweet. So, yeah, we had a big full day yesterday. I made another loaf of sourdough. It rose. So that's two correct lo big full day yesterday. I made another loaf of sourdough. It rose. So that's two correct loaves. I haven't cut into it yet. We'll find out today if it proofed correctly. Yeah, it rose.
Starting point is 00:03:51 It rose, you know, because Turdy's here. She's just kind of like my lucky charm. Totally. It looks good. I'm ready to eat it. It does look good. I know what I'm having for lunch. What?
Starting point is 00:04:02 Sourdough with butter and salt. Yeah, you love that. I've been dreaming of sourdough with just some scrambled eggs. Okay. I'm having for lunch. What? Sourdough with butter and salt. Yeah, you love that. I've been dreaming of sourdough with just some scrambled eggs. Okay. I'm a simple girl. So simple. However, the eggs, they're not from my farm. That's the next stop on Jackie's journey.
Starting point is 00:04:15 So you can't have chickens in my county. Oh. And I have to move on from that dream. Because your county is not the elk of dreamers. My county is not the elk of dreamers my county is not the elk of chickens and I actually as much as I'm going down this path like I'm not I support you like I love brew I love Romeo um animals like scare me a little bit just a magnolia oh sorry I was thinking of the ones that are here and now. Sure, sure.
Starting point is 00:04:45 Theo. Thankfully, Margo doesn't listen to this show. Thankfully. I love Magnolia. And you know, Bruno loves her. But I obviously have beef with her because he's kind of spent all his money on trips to the Maldives for her. And I feel like she's a big reason for his financial ruin. Are you taller than me?
Starting point is 00:05:00 Why do you say that? Because my feet don't hit the floor in this chair. And you're like fully set. I'm sitting up more than you. Sit up. No, no, this is the most up. No, no, no, like move your, no, no, no, like your back up a little bit. That would bring you closer to the floor, no?
Starting point is 00:05:13 It brings me further away. Sometimes I don't hit the floor and sometimes I do. Interesting. It's just because of the way we're sitting. Okay. We're like really the same height of nothingness. Yeah, and like at this rate, like I feel like people are competitive, like who's taller, who's shorter. Like, do I want to be taller or shorter than you? Like,
Starting point is 00:05:28 I literally don't even know. At this point, we're so short. It's like an achievement. I kind of want to be the shorter one. I have to say, not the one who's more like other people. I don't think that this is like a hot take. And I think we've said this before. Like I love being short. Like whenever people meet me and they remark on how small I am, I'm yeah I'm just so small yeah like I love it yeah I don't think that's a hot take I think like no I think everybody I mean I guess some people don't like their height but I think most people do because it's actually something you can't change about yourself so I hope that you like it you better embrace it yeah even if you're an extreme but like Dana's an extreme short person well how does she feel about her height loves it's who she is yeah no I no, I mean,
Starting point is 00:06:06 but I feel like being really, really short, and I'm talking about like not, you know, like dwarfism. I'm talking about just like you're still, you're still just like short, you know?
Starting point is 00:06:15 Yeah. But like Dana's super, super short. I think like most people as a girl would prefer that over like being super, super, super tall.
Starting point is 00:06:23 But like the 4'8", what's the average height for a woman? I feel like 5'4". No, I think like 5'6". Really? I feel like Margo, our sister, is average height. Or woman. Look, let's do a little math.
Starting point is 00:06:35 In America, by the way, I feel like it's probably different thanks to big food. Oh my God, you're right, is 5.35. So let's call it 5'4". We're literally average. So let's call it five. We're literally average. So let's call it five, four. Okay. That would mean the Dana equivalent on the tall side, an extra eight inches is five, 12, six foot, five, 12. Are you okay? Six foot. Oh my God. I'm so glad we got that on camera. Cause that's something I would say five, 12. You know what else I do sometimes? Like if I see the number like 6'05".
Starting point is 00:07:06 Like we got to get on the 6'05". Say that's a highway. Oh, you mean a time or like 6'05"? 6'05". Okay. I read it as 65. That's weird. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:16 And then I realized that that's actually misleading. Because that thinks of 65. Yeah, because that's also a different number. Yeah. Yeah, that's weird. I don't relate to that. Maybe you have like a form of dyslexia. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:07:27 Why can't I just like be a dumb bitch? Why do I have to have like a thing and take away from people who actually have diagnoses? I am so glad that I just remembered that I just said the word dyslexic because it reminded me of something I've been dying to talk about on this show. Hacks.
Starting point is 00:07:42 Okay. Now I have watched all but one episode and honestly the most recent episode I watched left me never wanting to watch this show again which is shocking I have long standing been like the number one advocate of this show I think it's the best show on the planet and this season they are very much leaning have I said this on the show yet I feel like I'm having deja vu I'll let you know they're really leaning into the fact that the show is about Joan Rivers. Like the entire season. And I think a lot of people have speculated
Starting point is 00:08:09 for a long time that Debra is loosely based off of Joan. But this season is so Joan. It's all about the nighttime talk show hosting gig she lost in the early 80s or whatever. That literally happened to Joan. And this season, like the Jimmy Fallon equivalent is stepping down and they're casting the new one.
Starting point is 00:08:25 And Debra goes on this like PR journey, like saying, I want this role. I'm, I could be amazing, whatever. And there's like a lot of momentum, like Gen Z starting to like love Debra and she's going to give a talk on a college campus. And as she's like arriving on campus, this like video is going viral. It's like a super cut of all the offensive things she said over the years, you know, jokes about every community you can think of. And in the beginning, Debra was like, fuck these kids, like eat my ass. And you know, Ava comes in being like, you know, you really should think about your
Starting point is 00:08:55 impact and accountability. I'm like, I'm waiting for Debra, like laugh in her face. But seriously, like the kids start like doing a walkout, they're boycotting and they hold a town hall to talk about like their feelings about Debra's jokes. And Debra decides like she really thinks about it. And Ava's, you know, monologue has a real impact on her. And she goes to the town hall and she just sits there while all these kids get up and tell her what's wrong with the jokes that she made. And this one girl like actually stands up and is like, and tell her what's wrong with the jokes that she made. And this one girl like actually stands up and is like, Debra, I'd like to talk about your ableist jokes.
Starting point is 00:09:30 And Debra's like, what's ableist? She's like, well, you said that dyslexia, or how you call it, listexia, literally hilarious joke and like really smart. And that, do you know how hard it was to grow up with dyslexia? And Debra just sits there and then like apologizes and then gets written up in like, you know, variety. Like she's amazing. She's Gen Z. She's learning and listening. Jackie, it was so offensive to Joan Rivers' legacy. Like Joan Rivers would never attend a town hall. If she attended it, she would only
Starting point is 00:09:59 show up to spit in the faces of the students. Like Jackie, I don't know if like, it felt so off brand for Debra. I don't know if in the final episode of the season, which I I don't know if like it felt so off brand for Debra I don't know if in the final episode of the season which I haven't watched yet because I can't bring myself to do it me and Ben looked at each other like Debra would never Debra would never I don't know if like in the last episode they undo it because it literally Jackie it makes no sense that's really crazy she goes to a town hall well I can understand her going just to eat them alive that's what i thought she was gonna do like read them to fill no she didn't even apologize she sat and she listened and she learned yikes yeah jackie i was shocked i was in tears i'm so glad we were
Starting point is 00:10:38 able to just talk about that did anybody else feel like that was so off brand and i guess like it seems like the show is turning into like Ava this like distressed millennial who's like you know offended about everything and Debra like these two polar opposites are gonna like meet in the middle and Ava's gonna change Debra and Debra's gonna change Ava but Debra hasn't changed Ava Ava has only changed Debra for the worse no and I also think when people reach a certain age like they are who they are yep Debra's fabulous Ava's the one who stinks a thousand percent you know Debra's fabulous. Ava's the one who stinks. A thousand percent.
Starting point is 00:11:06 You know, Debra, the job with Debra is the only thing that she's got. No, I was so confused. I think Ava needs to evaluate her life and her choices because things haven't worked out for her, like not Debra. No, I agree. Jackie, it was really upsetting. That's upsetting. Now, maybe the last episode like puts things back in its place,
Starting point is 00:11:22 but I don't know. It's like opposite day. They made like, they took a left turn. I was shocked. Interesting. Oh my God, I'm so glad we brought that up. Yeah. So that's something I've been wanting to talk about.
Starting point is 00:11:34 Also, we've got stories today. We also have Dear Toasters. And there's a Dear Toasters that's so us. It's about an aura ring. Aura ring drama. Oh, wow. Yeah. Well, they could never make me hate my aura ring. Aura ring drama. Oh, wow. Yeah. Well, they could never make me hate my aura ring.
Starting point is 00:11:47 The way Turdy and I are like, what's our activity score today? How did you sleep last night? I can't believe I lived so long. And I was actually thinking about this yesterday, just reflecting on a time where you would come on the show talking about your aura ring and seriously, I couldn't have given a flying fuck about anything less. And how silly I was, how wrong I was, how sorry how sorry I am well that brings up something from yesterday because you read a new book yesterday so I've been reading all these children's books
Starting point is 00:12:11 because you know the kids nobody reads a book like me I've got such I really should go on that radio show like ludicrous I'm I've got such timing and I read a couple of books the first I read was if you take a mouse to school yeah sequel to ifquel two, If You Give a Mouse a Cookie. Oh, okay. I haven't read the first, and I don't know if it's the type of thing you need to see the original. If You Take a Mouse to School is such a bad book that sends such a bad message about, like, codependency.
Starting point is 00:12:35 I really didn't like it, and no rhymes. Like, I just felt every page fell flat. It's so clunky to read. Clunky, yes. Yeah. So then I was delighted when somebody brought me Green Eggs and Ham because I know Green Eggs and Ham. Now I didn't remember the actual story and plot but I did remember
Starting point is 00:12:50 Sam I am Green Eggs and Ham. Like I knew I could sing the shit out of it. And I did. And when I got to the end of the book I had this sort of realization. And is that the Grinch in Green Eggs and Ham? Or it's just like a green guy? He looks just like the Grinch. It's just a green guy but it's Dr. Seuss so the illustrator is similar. They all kind of look like. I think you should take a green guy. He looks just like the Grinch. It's just a green guy, but it's Dr. Seuss, so the illustrator is similar.
Starting point is 00:13:05 They all kind of look like. I think you should take a second look. I think it's the Grinch. Who plays Sam I Am, or the guy who's supposed to be eating Green Eggs and Ham. You want me to get the book? It's right outside. Yeah, get it.
Starting point is 00:13:13 Okay. It's definitely Grinch. I'd like to cite the source. But a lot of the Dr. Seuss characters look like the Grinch. Like if you've read the Sinichas books, they all, the star-bellied Sinichas
Starting point is 00:13:23 and the plain-bellied Sinichas, they all have bellies like the Grinch. I think that's just, Claude, I really think it's just how Dr. Seuss illustrates. Because think of the Sneetches book. Have you read that one? No. They look like the Grinch. Also, the cat in the hat.
Starting point is 00:13:35 Look at him with his pot belly. He looks like the Grinch too. He's just wearing a hat. Okay, but look. He's so Grinchy. Yeah, this is just Dr. Seuss characters. Okay. Well. Well, he doesn't have. Seuss characters. Okay. Well.
Starting point is 00:13:45 Well, he doesn't have a name. But his name now is Claudia Oshry. Well, that's what I kind of learned towards the end of the book. I'm like, I'm having so much fun, you know, rhyming and bumping and grinding with these words. That it took me a second after I closed the book to say, oh my God, this book is about me. Is this play about us? Like, I am the Grinch. Because the whole book, this annoying fuck, Sam I Am, is like,
Starting point is 00:14:09 do you want to eat green eggs and ham? Like, would you eat it here? Would you eat it? And Grinch is like, fuck off, dude. Like, I don't like green eggs and ham. I don't care where I eat it, who I'm eating it with. Like, it ain't happening for me. And the little Sam I Am bothers the Grinch so much that by the end of the book,
Starting point is 00:14:21 the Grinch says, like, will you permanently fuck all the way off if I just try your green eggs and ham just to prove to you I don't like it? I don't like it. And he takes a bite and he freaks. He says, oh my God, everything I've, it's giving ordering, it's giving reading, it's giving Downton Abbey.
Starting point is 00:14:39 He says, I do like green eggs and ham, I do. I like them Sam, I am. And I would eat them in a boat and I would eat them with a goat and I would eat them in a boat and I would eat them with a goat and I will eat them in the rain and in the dark and on a train and in a car and in a tree they are so so so so good you see so I will eat them in a box and I will eat them with a fox and I will eat them in a house and I will eat them with a mouse and I will eat them here and I will eat them there say I'll eat those bitches anywhere I do like green eggs and ham
Starting point is 00:15:03 thank you thank you Jackie O. That's literally what the book is giving. Yeah. Well, what's funny is I heard you reading it upstairs. I was cooking dinner and I've read this book a few times and I toggle between two things. Like, of course you want to be open-minded and try new things and not be closed mind. And I think that's the overall message, but I do think there's a conflicting message about respecting boundaries. Yeah. Cause you, if you're like a negative person, which we are, like you could take a look at this book and say indoctrination. That's literally what's going on.
Starting point is 00:15:28 No, I feel like it's like, I know I don't like this thing. Stop pushing it on me. Respect my boundaries. However, he did wind up liking this thing. So his boundaries were false boundary. I guess we would need to know Grinch's relationship with Green Eggs and Ham
Starting point is 00:15:42 up until this point. Had he never tried it and you're just saying no to something. He was just being closed-minded. Like he he looked at it he judged a book by its cover and he said no yeah i think that's the message i think this is actually an amazing book like this and i feel like i've been clowning on a lot of children's books and haven't really said what i'm loving and this goes in the book's hall of fame like this is excellent from all cylinders i am so glad you like it i mean druss, he's the goat for a reason.
Starting point is 00:16:05 Yeah, one fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish. That one's good too. Do you have that one here? I do. And Cat in the Hat is also really good. And then, of course, The Grinch. We love The Grinch. Of course.
Starting point is 00:16:13 And then all these other ones on the back. I'm not familiar with these. You don't even know the Sneetches, but the Sneetches are really good. Now, Seussville.com. I guess Seussville is like the name of the Dr. Seuss empire. What do you think the Dr. Seuss empire is worth? 50 million. Well, I guess if you include movie rights.
Starting point is 00:16:29 Right. Dr. Seuss's net worth, 75 million. Slay. But he is no longer with us. So who, Google knows like when I ask a question, related question, people also ask, who inherited Dr. Who's estate? Dr. Who? Dr. Seuss's.
Starting point is 00:16:44 Audrey Stone. Okay, wait. According to New York Post, the estate is currently owned by the University of California, San Diego, which received the property in a donation by Dr. Seuss's late wife. Did he have children? That would be kind of weird. Well, his name was not Dr.
Starting point is 00:17:01 Seuss. It was. It was like Theodore Streisand. No lie. I think it was Theodore Vachemin. By the way, Theodore Geisel. You're right. It's Theodore Streisand.
Starting point is 00:17:10 Theodore Geisel. He was American children's book writer. Let's see what Wikipedia says. Although after Chernobyl, I know how unreliable Wikipedia is. He had a spouse. I don't think that he had any children. There is one Dr. Seuss book that's not good, though. He died at the age of 87 what is it king um the zacks something like that it's not good oh yeah it comes in the in the
Starting point is 00:17:35 series and it's a must skip you have to read the snitches by the way do you know that um dr seuss also had a illustrious career as a political cartoonist I could see it yeah there's a lot of satire here a lot of commentary yeah there's a lot to you know unpack in the world of Seuss give me the back of the book I want to see the other yeah I give Seuss I mean this is like the least hot take ever but tens across the board no but you see with the children's books like sometimes you're like oh oh, why did that get, why does everybody read that book? Even Give a Mouse a Cookie,
Starting point is 00:18:08 like we bought it because it's a classic. Is it? I think it's a new modern classic. You could definitely skip it. As we said, Rainbow Fish. A lot of the ones that kind of live high on the hog and are exempt from- Raking in millions.
Starting point is 00:18:20 Exempt from critique aren't that great, but then there are the ones that are so great. Yeah. And they're cliche for a reason. So I read more places you'll go that's also dr susie also is like a happy birthday to you book love that yeah i'm gonna keep a list maybe like a good reads or something of my attorney approved books i actually have been meaning to make like an amazon storefront of all of the favorite children's books that i've read and also we've been reading like in the living room and upstairs but the best ones are in the bedroom. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:47 You haven't even seen the best one. No, I haven't. I do love that. Um, I think it's like four books. It's the baby beluga. It's like classic songs.
Starting point is 00:18:54 Oh, baby beluga. Down by the bay. Down by the bay. That's a song. Yeah. It's a bop. I don't know who was working in the studio,
Starting point is 00:19:02 like getting that shit off the ground. Rafi. Fire. Fire fucking song. But it's also bop i don't know who was working in the studio like getting that shit off the ground rafi fire fire fucking song but it's also a little bit like what were you on down by the bay where the watermelon's grown it's like have you ever seen a goose kissing a moose down by it's kind of like random yeah no and i think one plus one equals sock when you're a teenager that's like a classic song you like change the words to and make it dirty you know oh interesting yeah like have you ever seen your mom like you know yeah yeah yeah yeah at least that's what i was doing and then the other board book in that series is wheels on the bus which i don't think anyone owns you do no no owns the song oh oh i thought you meant the book i'm like i think a lot

Starting point is 00:25:22 I feel like people weren't sure. Our first story, some hair news. Rihanna announces the launch of Fendi hair care line. Fendi? Fendi, sorry, with new blonde pixie cut in the promo. So just, you know. Trigger warning for me. People are not.
Starting point is 00:25:35 But Fendi hair is almost here. On yesterday, Rihanna took to Instagram to share the news that her beauty empire is expanding into hair care and it's coming soon. In a campaign video showcasing a variety of hair types and textures the fenty beauty founder gives fans a sneak peek into her newest product line she said a new family is moving in fenty hair is pulling up and it's time to finally have the hair experience you've been waiting for so i don't think anybody was necessarily surprised that fenty was going into this space um they recently did skin so like it's just a natural progression for a billion dollar beauty company i think what really made this newsworthy is, you know, Rihanna's blonde pixie cut.
Starting point is 00:26:09 Oh, you think so? Yeah. I think it looks great. Okay. So if anyone can pull off a pixie cut, it's obviously Rihanna. I don't think Rihanna looking great in it is an endorsement for the pixie cut because like she could look great in anything like with a duty on her head, you know? Right. Maybe that's next for Fenty. Fenty duty. beauty yeah right well I think this is exciting and as you said like yeah beauty skin hair all in one it just goes to show like the umbrella gets larger and it's also really crazy how like the hype for Fenty beauty like really didn't die down no it reached like a level where it's just like this is what people incorporate into their routine it's not like we're just trying things anymore like it's very much here to stay yeah they did like
Starting point is 00:26:48 a good job of like embracing gen z and tiktok like they're super relevant on tiktok but they're not like the most obvious like chuggy like brand they really like brand of the moment yeah which you don't want to be because like you're a brand of the moment and then you go out of business then the moment changes yeah it's just really it's such a testament to like rihanna's i think like celebrity but also like probably the quality of the products. I've used a bunch of Fenty stuff. Like it's all good shit. Yeah. Same. Um, so this is not shocking, but you know, you love to see a billionaire getting richer, especially when it's Rihanna. Especially when it's like, you know, consumer products that we get to benefit off of as well. Yeah. We all win. We do all win. We feel
Starting point is 00:27:22 like I literally am a spokesperson for capitalism right now. Like the consumer benefits too. Yeah. We all win. We do all win. We feel like I literally am a spokesperson for capitalism right now. Like the consumer benefits too. Yeah. Thanks billionaires. Thank you. No, I can use some new hair stuff. I feel like my hair isn't like a, a lulz. It's just like growing out.
Starting point is 00:27:36 Your hair is so long. It's insane. No, I mean like my regrowth, like the underneath. By the way, I have regrowth too. You do? Yeah. From like my hair loss journey. When I put my hair in a bun, I have like my bun hair and then I have regrowth too. You do? Yeah. From like my hair loss journey. When I put my hair in a bun, I have like my bun hair and then I have my back hair. It's like the ones at
Starting point is 00:27:49 the back that are five inches long. Yeah. That's where I'm at. I need to wrap it. I kind of like them. You do? I don't know. Like I like to twirl them in my hands. And it's just a reminder that like your hair is growing back. Yeah. But it definitely gets in my way. 100%. I think I've got like a few more months of this before it fits nicely into my pony. Well, if you cut your hair. To the length of my regrowth strands? No, but you're just bridging the gap, you know? I guess.
Starting point is 00:28:14 You have to meet your regrowth strands where they are. That's so true. You know? I don't see a haircut in the near future for me, like a drastic haircut one day. Yeah. But I'm not trying to overhaul. I'm no one to talk. I'm always like trying to convince other people, like Olivia Rodrigo and her sister Margo to get drastic haircuts but you
Starting point is 00:28:28 couldn't pay me seriously two billion dollars to cut my hair drastically I guess if somebody said to me turny here's a winning lottery ticket and a pixie cut and you can't take one without the other that was a percent because then I would buy the best wig money could buy of course yeah of course because I know they say like you know what's that quote it's like my favorite quote That was a percent. Cause then I would buy the best wig money could buy. Of course. Yeah. Of course. Cause I know they say like, you know, what's that quote? It's like my favorite quote.
Starting point is 00:28:49 And just start writing down my favorite quotes. That's what tinks does. And it's like, she's always like remarking on her quotes. I'm like, how do you remember them? She said she has list. But my favorite quote is like,
Starting point is 00:28:56 everybody wants to be rich and famous, but make them rich and see if that doesn't solve their problems. Like fame is not like everybody like looks out for like fame, but like literally money and I know money can't buy happiness but it can solve like almost all of your problems like a pixie cut so the message is like the fame is it fame is worthless don't spend your time wanting it a thousand percent that's what we were saying yesterday so you must have read that quote and then you moved on from no I I've always thought that I had never you know like heard
Starting point is 00:29:23 the quote until actually I read it in Josh Peck's book. Got it. And I was like, oh my God, yes. That's like exactly how I feel. It's like, it's the money that's good, not the fame. Like we look at celebrities and we're like jealous, but we're like, you don't realize you're not jealous of their fame. Like it's really not that great.
Starting point is 00:29:36 You're jealous of their money. But people like attention too. Yeah, but it gets old quickly, I think. Yeah, but like if you're with someone and like they're getting a lot of attention and you're not. Okay, well I need more information. Where am I? And who's the other person, you know? Yeah. Like sometimes, like if somebody else gets attention and they're getting a lot of attention and you're not. Okay, well, I need more information. Where am I? And who's the other person?
Starting point is 00:29:46 You know? Yeah. If somebody else gets attention, it depends who it is. I can be happy for them. Yeah. But do I hate this person? You can't just make a generalization like that. Got it.
Starting point is 00:29:54 Got it. No, but attention is a form of currency, and that's what fame is. I mean, you're telling me. I literally started running for attention. Right. Look where it got you. Good things came. A thousand percent.
Starting point is 00:30:04 Yeah. Are you ready for our next story Dakota Fanning reveals she has a massive shoe collection courtesy of Tom Cruise have you heard this yet the story sounds familiar wait so Dakota fan maybe she told you in college when you guys went to college together that wasn't Dakota Fanning she went to NYU at the same time as me like she's 30 I don't like remark on her as one of my classmates. Dylan and Cole Sprouse were. Anna Sophia Robb was. She's literally your age. How would you feel? If your father allowed me to tell my mom your own age. She turned 30 in February. Oh so she's not my age. She's much older than me.
Starting point is 00:30:39 Anyway she revealed on the Kelly Clarkson show of course where everyone goes to spill the beans. Kristen Juszczyk was just on the Kelly Clarkson show, of course, where everyone goes to spill the beans. Kristen Juszczyk was just on the Kelly Clarkson show. I saw that Tom Cruise has gifted her a new pair of shoes every year for her birthday since they starred together in War of the Worlds. He's gotten her a birthday present every single year since she was 11 in that movie. Kelly said, I find that amazing that every year on her birthday, Tom Cruise still sends you a present on your birthday and says, happy birthday.
Starting point is 00:31:03 That's so nice, even though they worked together so long ago she said that she had just turned 11 when she first worked with him on their 2005 film War of the Worlds and to celebrate he had gifted her her first cell phone she said it was a Motorola Razr I didn't have anyone to call but I just wanted a Razr so bad and I wonder what your parents thought of that that's kind of a big thing yeah I feel like now it's kind of a bigger thing but like back then the impact of cell phones like wasn't like it was just yeah I guess I guess that's what I because I was saying the same thing like that's a kind of a presumptuous gift to like give someone their first phone but I think back then it just like meant less plus it was a not a smartphone it's just like you want to make a call right anybody needs to make a call you want
Starting point is 00:31:39 to do the flip I've got a phone right so she said I must have been talking about a lot because that's what he got me it was such a great However, since then he has honored her birthday every year by sending her a new pair of shoes. So the thing is, they could never make me like Tom Cruise. Like, and Dakota Fanning is trying, like she's really trying hard. They could never make me like this man. Um, however, you know, hearing a story about an 11 year old on set who had a positive experience with an older gentleman in this industry, like, you know, we can't take that lightly. Like, sorry, that is definitely a point in Tom Cruise's column because, you know, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:32:13 Sorry, no, they can never make me like him. I'm trying to put a positive spin. I can't. Okay. Well, I mean, it's sweet that I don't think they have much of a relationship now, but like he still acknowledges her birthday every year. Also. He's like not sending it you know
Starting point is 00:32:25 but he has made it a point to his people to do this actually this is another storyline in hacks and I have to assume it's based on what actually happens in real life like Tom Cruise I guess is known for like sending a like a group of like Hollywood elites and his friends every Christmas this like divine coconut cream yeah yeah 300 people he sends it to at Christmas. Oh, so it's an episode because Debra gets one. Oh, that's funny. So he's obviously like known for his gifts, which is cute. But he's also like known for being a Scientologist. Yeah, he also paid for Glenn Powell to get his pilot's license.
Starting point is 00:32:59 Okay, well, if there is anyone who could make me like Tom Cruise, it might be Glenn Powell. And Miles Teller. And they both really like him. Yeah. I don't know I the thing is for me with Tom Cruise like I definitely missed his peak like he was a movie star and like he still is but like there was like a couple of years where he was it and I just kind of came into consciousness after that yeah and so I only know like like the negatives I don't remember Jerry Maguire you know right I don't even know what movies I've seen him in besides Top Gun Maverick I feel like that's literally it and I
Starting point is 00:33:30 saw Top Gun Maverick two years ago yeah we've definitely seen another no I actually don't think we have let me google him Tom Cruise he also does like action he kind of like does his own stuff and like is always his own genre like for real yeah it's true I'm just saying like you know just interesting to note Tom Cruise very generous also I would love to get to a place where I'm like known for my gifts that's like such a rich person thing you know yeah you can have like lists that go out annually and everybody knows you for it and like the elites get it I guess that might be how some people feel about our TNN holiday baskets I think so they They're really great. They are.
Starting point is 00:34:06 We don't skim. We don't. And we send them to ourselves. Yeah, that's the best part. Sending it to ourselves. To unburden ourselves. Right. Okay.
Starting point is 00:34:14 All of these movies are like action movies. Oh, Rain Man. We've seen Rain Man. Oh my God. Wait. Hold on. Tom Cruise was in Rain Man. That definitely changes things.
Starting point is 00:34:24 Who was the man himself? Dustin Hoffman? Or what's that guy's name? Yeah, Dustin Hoffman. Dustin Hoffman, yeah. And then Tom Cruise is like the brother who's like always trying to keep him out of trouble. Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:34:37 You know, that's an excellent film. Yeah. Okay. It seems like you're trying to make me like Tom Cruise. No, I'm just having you question your biases. That's all. Okay. To confirm them.
Starting point is 00:34:49 Yeah, but biases are there for a reason, you know? Yeah, of course. I'm just like Nicole Kidman. That's what I, you know? Oh, thank you. What kind of man is in an ice cold? You know? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:00 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Are you ready for our next story? Is it about Alec Baldwin? It is. I need to talk about this. Alec and Hilaria Baldwin announced their reality show featuring all seven of their kids. So Alec and Hilaria Baldwin are getting a reality show on TLC
Starting point is 00:35:15 called The Baldwins, and it is a family dynamic show about their family. And I feel like this is crazy. And let me tell you why. obviously Alec Baldwin I'm gonna choke top Alec Baldwin is a star and we know him he's incredibly famous 30 rock but this is coming off the heels of me just watching and I forgot to mention that Alec Baldwin is in Pearl Harbor Alec Baldwin is so A-list and I think we've all forgotten how A-list he is over the last couple of years because he's been marred by scandal. First, you know, the Spanishization
Starting point is 00:35:49 of his wife, this thousand kids, the shooting. So we haven't really talked about his status as an A-lister in a while because we've been talking about other things. The voicemail, the paparazzi, the anger. He was roasted on comedy central a little bit you know a couple of years ago like we haven't talked about his you know discography in many years the work itself and if you would do our favorite thing please pull up alec baldwin's imdb because i don't know how somebody who was in pearl harbor ends up on a TLC reality show? Well, it's not just about Pearl Harbor. Like it's everything. No, of course. But Pearl Harbor, like as far as, and how I see it is like when you think about Jennifer Gardner, Ben Affleck, Josh Hartnett, uh, Kate Beckinsale,
Starting point is 00:36:40 Jamie King, like these are all people. They are, They were, you know, what's the word? Propel? Catapulted? Thank you. Catapulted. Into this very elite level of fame. Yes. Alec Baldwin included, and he went on to do great things.
Starting point is 00:36:55 We obviously know 30 Rock. What else? It's complicated, of course. We love. I mean, I'm looking at the movies that I love. He was in The Aviator. Oh, yeah. He played the head of Pan Am. Blue Jasmine again movies that we've watched uh the cat in the hat with
Starting point is 00:37:12 Dakota Fanning yeah oh the cat in the hat like literally the best way this is a deeply accomplished person and I actually I do know because we've literally watched it all unfold but it's really crazy how you go from that to having your own show on the same network that launched the career of Mama June and the Duggars. Like, it's really crazy. Even without Pearl Harbor, like he's been, he's dirty rock. It's crazy that the show is on TLC. And it just makes me ask one question, like why?
Starting point is 00:37:42 I think they need money. Really? This is what you do when you need money. They have seven kids, which just in and of itself is an enormous financial undertaking. They've recently, you know, had a lot of legal, you know, those things are expensive, going to trial and things of that nature. I'm sure she spends. I am sure she spends.
Starting point is 00:38:09 Yeah. um I'm sure she spends I am sure she spends yeah I think also yes he is this amazing but like in the last couple of years even think about the last movie he did which was Russ like that was an independent film that's something you make like a per diem per day of like you don't or you make it like when you're doing it for the art he was in Boss Baby which that those sorts of things make money there were two of them I'm sorry that's probably one of his most lucrative. No, it's true. Like the voiceover work. Yeah. When you get in with one of those animation, oh, over. Still Alice, which was recent and critically acclaimed.
Starting point is 00:38:34 So if he doesn't need the money, which is what I immediately thought, why would he do this? And I also think like 30 Rock is a show that like pays forever. Oh, sorry. Yeah. 30 Rock is a show that pays forever. It's on Netflix. I think it's also on Max. And I think there are other things that like pays forever. Sorry. Yeah. 30 Rock is a show that pays forever. It's on Netflix.
Starting point is 00:38:47 I think it's also on Mac. And I think there are other things that you can do for money. Like when you're very well connected. No. You can invest in something. No, you're right. You're right. You're right.
Starting point is 00:38:54 You're right. I don't think it's about money. Like I think maybe Hilaria wants to be on TV. You think it's like a fame thing? I don't know. I seriously can't imagine why anybody who's like. Maybe because she's on Instagram. Like maybe like she wants more than just influencing.
Starting point is 00:39:06 And I love TLC. This isn't me clowning. Like I watch a lot of their programming. You guys know that. I don't. I think it's important to know like, yeah, there's reality shows. There's different levels of reality shows. You know, Bravo.
Starting point is 00:39:16 And then there's TLC, which like is, you know, the circus. Yeah. Like you're on the same network. It's like Sister Wives and theuggars, you know, 19 kids. Like it's, it's like for like freaks, dogs, like, you know? Yeah. No, I know. So I'm confused.
Starting point is 00:39:34 Sound off in the comments. Like why do you think they did this show? Yeah. And will you be watching this show? Honestly, it's tempting. I wonder if they'll address, you know know like what would you say is the biggest scandal in alec baldwin's career the shooting see i really feel like it's elaria like to me like that was so much more shocking yeah then there's also thoughtless little pig
Starting point is 00:39:56 the voicemail but what i think we're past that as a p like that was so long ago is but i think she is i think she is too and ire's like in her mom, like trad wife era. Yeah. It comes for all of us. Also, what I was thinking about when you were saying like all the things that I have been, like green eggs and ham. Does it ever make you wonder of the things that I'm doing now that like eventually you're going to fall into because.
Starting point is 00:40:18 Don't push it. Okay. No, no. I'm not pushing anything. I'll make my own bread when I'm ready. I don't think you'll, I actually don't think you will ever make your own bread. Me neither. Okay, but so what exactly are you referring to?
Starting point is 00:40:27 No, nothing. It was a question. It wasn't an agenda. Oh, okay. No, I don't think about it. I just think about like, you know. It's funny to think about though. There's definitely something that I'm doing now that you're like, I roll.
Starting point is 00:40:36 Maybe there's something that I'm doing now that you'll be doing. Maybe, but I endorse everything you do. I endorse everything you do. There's nothing that you do that I think is. Crazy. Yeah, or that i'm just like not paying attention it's so dissimilar to myself but i could see you becoming like clean one day just like products wise i don't know but it happens like a big impetus is like when you have kids yeah of course yeah Happens like a big impetus is like when you have kids. Yeah, of course.
Starting point is 00:41:05 Good enough for ye, but not for they. Yeah. So the Baldwin's on TLC one day soon. Coming to a circus near you. Yes. Next up, Lady Gaga is. Making waves on TikTok. Making waves. I guess she's been kind of like low key recently.
Starting point is 00:41:24 Even though like her Chromatica ball came out on Max. And like, I don't know been kind of like low key recently. Even though like her Chromatica ball came out on Max and like, I don't know why I've seen like no hype for it. I mean, she like did her concert DVD. Okay. Released it. When was Chromatica ball? Years ago, like before COVID. Okay. And it came out on Max and I've been like seeing clips of it somewhere, but like there really has been like no energy for it. Well, she has been doing like Fale Adu. And I also think she's a celebrity that when she's not wearing hair and makeup, she looks like a layperson
Starting point is 00:41:49 and can make herself look like a layperson, so I think she's like, pretty low-key. I also think she's a celebrity who when she's not actively working on something, like, she hibernates. Like, you don't see her. Right, but she had her sister's wedding,
Starting point is 00:41:59 and she was spotted with her mans. They're still going strong. Which man is this? Regular Degular. His name is like, Michael. Is he the audio engineer guy is he i don't know he's just like a lay person yeah yeah yeah um but they're still together and maybe some of the pictures sparked pregnancy rumors anyways she wrote on tiktok not pregnant just down bad crying at the gym register to vote okay so many layers to this first is I love when celebrities
Starting point is 00:42:26 like comment on rumors that nobody was making like I never heard this and I hear everything okay that's first of all second of all living for the Taylor Swift reference like I think a lot of people are like you know creaming their pants like is this an easter egg no I just think she's like commenting on something that's big in culture and that's fine three this is probably one of my least favorite celebrity tropes like the performative activism it's like everyone's talking about me when we should be talking about this it's like first of all no one's talking about you second of all like we're talking about voting anyway like it's an election year we're not stupid like one of my least favorite tropes it's like it's a little like condescending it's like while you guys are so caught up in such unimportant
Starting point is 00:43:01 things like my pregnancy rumors you really should be thinking about voting. And it's like, we are, we can actually think about two things. Do you know what I mean? Yeah. Like I think you're pregnant and I'm also going to vote this year. You know,
Starting point is 00:43:12 I just hate that. Like, and it's, I think people like it's, we were talking about it with that reformation collab. It's like, you just put like vote.org on anything and you're, it's like,
Starting point is 00:43:21 I'm a savior of the people. This is meaningful. Yeah. I don't like it. No yeah I don't like it no I don't like it either and I really hope that as a society maybe it won't be in this election cycle because it's already starting yeah but at some point that we move past it it's so performative like you're not making anyone vote yeah rare like I wasn't gonna vote but then lady got on a tiktok told me to and actually actually if that's your level of intellect you probably shouldn't vote like seriously I'm kidding everyone should vote
Starting point is 00:43:51 like please I just it's probably like one of my least favorite celebrity tropes a about voting but be just about like the sort of intellectual superiority like while you're all doing this I'm over here talking about you know the Sudanese Sudanese. And it's like, okay, me too. But I'm also talking about the other thing. Like, yeah. Yeah, we can hold space for a number of things at one time. Because one of our, you know, favorite sayings, which is, you know, of the absolute truth,
Starting point is 00:44:15 two things, actually, maybe even three can be true at once. Not three. Yeah. Not three, certainly not four. I draw the line at four. Well, Lady Gaga hasaga has emerged well that's just like the overall positive outcome and does anybody else feel like the hype for chromatica ball has been like so i don't even know what you're talking about okay it's like her heiress
Starting point is 00:44:37 tour it's her beyonce's netflix like she did a max concert dvd and i don't know why i call it dvd but let's just like yeah when somebody films their concert, it's a concert DVD. Of course. Of course. And when it's on Max, it's on Max. And I just feel like no one cared. I didn't even know about it.
Starting point is 00:44:54 So I can't say that I didn't care because I didn't know. Therein lies the issue that I'm asking people about. Like, why is nobody talking about it? Because I'm a big fan. Right. Does this include like Stupid Love? Yeah, that's the Chromatica era. I'm sure she sings Stupid Love.
Starting point is 00:45:07 I've been listening to Stupid Love a lot recently. She's really good. Because I resurfaced some old 2020 playlists. Because as I said, like I, weirdly there's so much new music, but there's nothing to listen to except for Shaboosie. Stream Shaboosie, everyone. I get into Jackie's car. Like she's knee deep in the Shaboosie album.
Starting point is 00:45:21 The Shaboosie album is so, so good. I did like what I heard. It's so good. He's so talented. So right now i did like what i heard it's so good he's so talented so right now that's um carrying me but it's definitely not for working out so i've gone back to my 2020 workout playlist stupid love so good rain on me that's that has always been on my every playlist i like keep making new ones rain on me is always the first one added it's so good because i would rather be dry but at least i'm alive rain on me hey hey our fifth and final story great a little more celebrity news some hopeful but frightening news Halsey Halsey
Starting point is 00:45:53 Halsey releases a new single The End as she reveals her secret health struggle she said she's lucky to be alive so on Tuesday she shared The End which is the first new single from her forthcoming fifth studio album, along with a caption revealing that she's been suffering from serious health issues. On Instagram, she wrote, long story short, I'm lucky to be alive, short story long, I wrote an album.
Starting point is 00:46:14 It begins with the end, out now. So she said that she was suffering from leukemia as well as lupus. Yeah. Frightening. So scary. I've actually been listening to a lot of Halsey from my old playlist. You know what this is just reminding me of?
Starting point is 00:46:35 Did that Charlie Booth song ever come out? Hero? Yeah, I listened to it. You did? How was it? Not good? Not bad. Just like it didn't change my life like I was hoping a song called Hero would.
Starting point is 00:46:47 Damn. It wasn't like, I need a hero. And it's certainly. I'm holding out for a hero till the morning light. Uh, gotta be. He's gotta be cool and he's gotta be fast and he's gotta be fresh for the fight. And it certainly wasn't. And he's gotta be fresh for the fight And it certainly wasn't
Starting point is 00:47:03 And then a hero comes along With the strength to carry on And you cast your fears aside But you know you can survive So when you feel like hope is gone Look inside you and be strong And then you'll finally see the truth that a hero lies in you no it wasn't that oh that's disappointing i had like hopes that charlie p pooth would
Starting point is 00:47:38 be a bigger artist yeah no it i listened i was like excited because i meant what i said when i said it sounded good and i wanted to give him a shot Taylor should have like Reposted it or something Like given it Like a little bit of a leg up Not if it's not worthy It's so true
Starting point is 00:47:52 Our queen has taste Yeah Not like a pity share I mean what's Literally You can always tell When like a big artist Is like friends with a littler one
Starting point is 00:48:00 And the littler one Puts out like a piece of shit And the artist is like I'm obsessed with this song It's like no you're not Stop lying to us Yeah But halsey's putting out new music that's great and she's been through a lot wishing her well yeah riff wash lima me as well i think she's doing better now but i think she went through a hard time i mean that's terrible yeah
Starting point is 00:48:19 so those were the fast five stories i enjoyed them i know you said at the beginning of the show well actually i think maybe you said this offline like you weren't sure about the stories. It was just like light celebrity stories. I enjoyed them. Not super chewy. Not super chewy. Chewy. I'm hungry.
Starting point is 00:48:32 What are we having for lunch? Something light. Sourdough. Oh, yeah. We're having our slices of toast that are easily digestible, so they're healthy. And I feel like people are worried. About your toasters? That the show's over, but it's not.
Starting point is 00:48:43 Oh, it's still not over. By the way, I guess it's are worried. About Deer Toasters? That the show's over, but it's not. Oh, it's still not over. It's, by the way, I guess it's never really, oh, KP7 is coming. Okay. What do you think about that? I'm open. I'm open as well. I'm open, Sam, I am. She, seriously, like, will go down, she will be studied by, like.
Starting point is 00:49:00 For the flip, flop, the flip, the flip-a-dip-a-dip. Like, every other album is either the best album I've ever heard or the worst. And she will be studying for like having probably one of the biggest impacts on pop music. Like five different times. And then releasing two albums that seriously I think got five downloads. Yeah. I don't know how you can do both. But get you a girl who can do both.
Starting point is 00:49:20 And it seems like she might be in a huge redemption era. Which I am really here for. Me as well. What was was I gonna say about her it's just so crazy like at one point her and Kelly Clarkson were like neck and neck for my love no and I think she's also a great example of hair theory how like your hair can really change your output like for real because I think some of her best hair days were her best music. And then some of her worst hair days, the bleach blonde pixie cut was some of her like worst shittiest music chain to the rhythm. Bon Appetit. Correct. Yikes bikes. And then it's also like,
Starting point is 00:49:56 I think, uh, a statement on authenticity. I didn't feel like she was being her authentic self with Bon Appetit. I think she was like putting out what either the label wanted to her, put her to put out or what she thought people wanted her to put out like that wasn't Katie well I feel like a criticism that she often gets is that she's not been authentic her entire part of her successful career because I think she started out as a Christian artist as we know like she didn't have success until much later in life and I think people say and I don't feel this way necessarily because I don't know her on a personal level but But like all of that was just like put on, you know, the teenage dream. Like it was all phony.
Starting point is 00:50:30 Never heard. But it was good. Yeah. No, not saying it was good or bad. But like who is the real Katy Perry? I don't know. I don't know either. But I think there was a time where she didn't know.
Starting point is 00:50:39 Right. Even as someone who's like been a true fan of hers over the years, I don't know who she is. And that's a problem. I think now as like an older, wiser mom mom i actually think she knows who she is now and like but then she did harley's in hawaii and i think she was a mom when she did that yeah that wasn't good and wasn't giving authentic to herself but like that song daisies and her daughter's beautiful yeah maybe we could just chalk it up to you know mismanagement i guess She also doesn't have a Grammy, that's what I was going to say, even though she's been, like, such...
Starting point is 00:51:08 Yeah, she's one of those people, Miley just left that bucket of people who are, like, so famous and, like, have so many popular songs and have never won a Grammy. I think it's more of a crime that Katy Perry has never won a Grammy. When you think about, like, Teenage Dream, California Girls, I Kissed a Girl, you know, the one that got away, waking up in Vegas. Like she has-
Starting point is 00:51:26 Firework? The fact that Firework doesn't have a Grammy is really emblematic of the issue that I have with the Grammys. Yeah, like when that album came out, Teenage Dream is her biggest album. I think it like smashed everything. What year did it come out
Starting point is 00:51:39 and what one even pop vocal album that year? You know? Yeah, like what was she up against? Her Grammy should have been. Pop vocal, yeah. vocal album that year you know yeah like what was she that's where her dream her grammy should have been pop vocal yeah teenage dream album came out in 2010 what a great year for music i was in the 10th grade was that a great year for me i think it was 2010 grammy winners i think taylor swift had a big year that year is that fearless year uh the 53rd annual 2010 grammy winners list how fun yet taylor won for fearless wait where's the winner
Starting point is 00:52:16 oh you somebody was record of the year fearless was album of the year okay single ladies was song of the year you guys these were good times it was a tough category best pop vocal album she's not nominated this must be the wrong year but it was the end by black eyed peas also good really black eyed peas the end what's i'm not sure you know all the songs i got a feeling if i got a feeling for sure okay then fine so wait maybe it's the 2011 grammys i just want to put this to bed yeah like who is she up against like has it just been unfortunate timing for katie or are they out to get her record of the year in 2011 was need you now by lady a love oh my god okay grammy winning queens wait this is what it was up against nothing
Starting point is 00:53:00 on you by bob amazing song featuring bruno mars love the Way You Lie, Eminem and Rihanna. Amazing song. F.U. CeeLo Green. Amazing song. And Empire State of Mind. Amazing song. Yeah, by the way, I can make a case for any of those songs winning, but Need You Now winning isn't that crazy.
Starting point is 00:53:16 Like that song was so big. Here's where she was snubbed. Album of the Year went to The Suburbs by Arcade Fire. Now I know I'm biased because I'm not an Arcade Fire fan, but Teenage Dream should have won. Was she nominated? She was nominated. Recovery by Eminem was nominated.
Starting point is 00:53:28 Need You Now by Lady A was nominated. And The Fame Monster by Lady Gaga were nominated. But I think it's easier to say that now, like in retrospect, seeing how much, you know, that album by Katy Perry like still lives and the one by Arcade Fire like doesn't. Right, so in retrospect, it was wrong. Yeah, in retrospect, yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:44 Wait, Best New Artist, this is crazy. Nominees were Mumford & Sons, Drake, Florence and the Machine, Justin Bieber, and Esperanza Spaulding. Esperanza won? Who's that? Yeah, they almost always never, I feel like it's actually a curse to win Best New Artist.
Starting point is 00:54:04 And I think when you're like a really successful artist who doesn't win it you're not like that upset because like I think Christina it's like famously Christina Aguilera was snubbed for it Celine Dion like many people all of these people Florence and the Machine Justin Bieber Drake and Mumford and Sons yeah like it's almost something you don't want to win yeah and then best pop vocal album that year she was nominated for Teenage, but it went to the Fame Monster by Lady Gaga. Like when I think of new artists, I don't know why I always think about Alessia Cara, who had such a big year and won and then was never heard from again. And she still works.
Starting point is 00:54:32 It's not like she stopped making music. She's still releasing. And like whatever machine was behind her, like broke. Yeah, they broke the machine. Florence and her machine. I think Fame Monster. Yeah, that's tough. They are both like either one yeah okay damn um well we have your toasters our weekly advice segment that's

All right, Jackson, you ready for Dear Toasters, our weekly advice segment where everyone can email us deartoasters at gmail.com or head to thetoastpodcast.com to submit anonymously? Yes.
Starting point is 00:57:57 You know, I had four. I had four because I couldn't whittle it down to three. So let me just see. You're whittling. Okay, this one's funny. And it's like sisterly, so we can do it. Hey, Swirlies. My sister and I are very close, and I love my nieces so much.
Starting point is 00:58:11 I got my niece a present she really wanted for her third birthday. I didn't assemble it. I'm pregnant. But I dropped it off for her a few days before in case my sister wanted to have it ready the day of. My sister shared that this was a selfish gift as it was not assembled and ended up making more work for them. Is this a rule I didn't know to assemble before dropping off a gift? Is my sister being nuts or am I?
Starting point is 00:58:35 Well, I need to know what it was. But like what kind of toys need being assembled, you know? All the toys pretty much. Like most things, a dollhouse,house say um a bicycle like things just need assembly but no most people when they give someone a gift at a party they bring it in the box they wrap it most people don't assemble something it's nice if you do if you're dropping it off but you're pregnant and you gave her enough time i think she's being a little crazy like yeah you if someone dropped off a gift that we had to assemble i would like be like my husband my husband, ugh. But I would never think like they should have assembled it.
Starting point is 00:59:06 They bought us a gift. Don't look a gift horse in the mouth. If you're in a situation where someone's given you a gift and you are like complaining about something, you are 10 out of 10 times in the wrong. Yeah. You can complain about it to like your husband being like, oh, she couldn't have wrapped it or she couldn't have assembled it. I would have never thought, like I've gotten a lot of children's gifts.
Starting point is 00:59:24 They don't come assembled. And I never really think, damn, so-and-so should have assembled it never thought like I've gotten a lot of children's gifts they don't come assembled and I never really think damn so and so should have assembled it and especially if you are complaining about a gift that came from a pregnant person this pregnant person didn't do enough physical labor for you like your sister is 1000% wrong so you can rest easy knowing you're in the right yeah how you want to handle it it's up to you like I don't know how you and your sister handle things but you should tell your sister seriously to shut the fuck up like yeah this is the best part about having conflicts with sisters like you can say something to them and like you can speak your truth you know yeah you
Starting point is 00:59:49 don't have to mince words you can be like first of all i'm pregnant second of all you're being an ungreat ingrate third of all fine i won't buy your money skips anymore is that what you want like what's your fucking problem what's your fucking problem this situation where like i think directness is of the utmost importance and you can feel good knowing that these two sisters told you you're one thousand you didn't do one single thing wrong no you did not you dropped it off even it would have been above and beyond to assemble it but like so not wrong to not do it no and then you're setting a precedent for like every gift having to be assembled no a gift is a gift fuck all the way off yeah um which one do I want to do next?
Starting point is 01:00:26 Oh, this one. Another sister one, okay? Okay. Hey, Jackson Turd. Long time listener of the show. Huge fan and love you both. I'm in a bit of a pickle. My sister is staying with me while her new house is getting built and out of curiosity,
Starting point is 01:00:39 I went through her journal. In it were some, um, oh my God, I'm having a stroke. In it were some unsavory things about me, about how she isn't enjoying staying at my house, I'm passive aggressive, I'm overly critical, etc. In an unhinged rage, I sent her pictures of what she wrote, telling her how bad it hurt me, and now we're not talking. Can you believe she is the one mad at me, even though she's the one who wrote all this horrible stuff? At the end of the day, I miss my sister, and this feels like a huge fight, but I'm unsure of how to move forward. Am I the asshole?
Starting point is 01:01:08 Yes. Yeah. You're seriously so toxic. Like, why are you going through your sister's journal? I don't care if she admitted to a murder in there. Like, there's nothing in there for you. And then to instead, like, I feel like if I did that. You uncovered.
Starting point is 01:01:21 I went through your journal and I found these thoughts about me. I wouldn't take pictures and say, why do you think these things about me? I would be like, oh my God, I've been passive aggressive. Like I would try and change my behavior. Maybe that's just me not saying you need to do that. But the fact that you would be mad at her about her private thoughts, like seriously, what do you want to control?
Starting point is 01:01:36 Everything and everything. It's giving Mao. Yeah, no. First of all, reading anyone's journal is such a. Stalin. What, she's guilty of thought crimes? It's such a betrayal. Like, you are so wrong for that. Like, you were going to be wrong in this situation 10 out of 10 times because you did that. Like, you should never do that again. And like,
Starting point is 01:01:53 you need to learn about like boundaries and privacy. It's so hard when somebody writes in when they're the toaster and they're in the wrong. It happens sometimes where like, you know, you need a third party to tell you how crazy you're being. Like, you're being nuts. So not only is reading it like such a betrayal, especially a sister like oh my god but Jackie's right to then start a fight she didn't say these things to you she wrote them down in a journal which is never meant to be seen or read or public and a lot of times people write stuff down like that to like get it out expel it so that they can move on from it so it wasn't meant like she's not festering in it probably she's probably putting it there so that she doesn't have to bring it to it wasn't meant, like she's not festering in it probably. She's probably putting it there
Starting point is 01:02:25 so that she doesn't have to bring it to you. And the fact that you're like, this hurt me, it's actually your fault that those things hurt you because you were never meant to read them. So she literally owes you nothing. You owe her an apology actually. Or like if someone less crazy, no offense, read it, like they would, and saw that their sister wasn't happy staying at their house
Starting point is 01:02:47 and was having these feelings, you could then have a talk with her being like, are you happy here? What can I do? You could even pretend like you just had a feeling. But you could have had a referendum with her as opposed to a fight. Right, and so the fact that she wrote these down and didn't say them to you just means
Starting point is 01:03:05 they're her thoughts. Like they could be meaningless. She could be justified. She could not be. But reading it was wrong. And you now open like this whole can of worms that you shouldn't have opened. Like and what even compelled you to read her journal? It's not like you were in a fight or anything.
Starting point is 01:03:17 So like you just decided to like invade someone's like utmost personal thoughts. Like what for fun? No, I think you need to work on yourself like for real. But love you and I'm I'm sorry to have been so harsh with you but if you miss your sister like it's 1000% on you to repair and I guess you feel like she's staying at your house like you're the one who can like like you're doing her this big favor like how can you be in the wrong but you are yeah you really are no and like don't do a favor for someone if you're just going to hold it over their head and feel like you can treat them however you want. That's not how it works.
Starting point is 01:03:51 You're doing it because out of the goodness of your heart. Yeah. Our third and final, dear toasters, is the Oura Ring aforementioned submission. Hello, my swirliest, twirliest girlies. I need your help. My husband and I went to Florida two weeks ago for our third wedding anniversary, and during the trip, he lost his wedding band which is devastating.
Starting point is 01:04:07 We haven't gotten him a replacement yet because my ring is the only one on the insurance policy and we just really keep hoping that it's going to show up somewhere. Last night he comes home and he claims he has the best idea. He can get an Aura ring as his new band and as a bonus he can use his HSA to pay for it.
Starting point is 01:04:20 For some context, we can afford to get a new ring. I've been so sad that he lost his ring because I really thought he'd have that ring forever. Now with an aura ring, not only does it not seem sentimental, it'll also need to be replaced once again later down the line. Am I being too sensitive or should I let my husband replace his beautiful original band with an aura ring? Um, you're not being like too sensitive, but no, an aura ring is not a wedding band. And also he could like wear it out to a bar and be like no I'm not married it's just my aura ring yeah no it's not a wedding band yeah and if you can afford it like
Starting point is 01:04:52 get it yeah I don't know I don't like this whole thing where people like skirt around wearing a ring like this you know a lot of um guys who golf wear that like rubbery one and let me tell you when I golfed my aura ring was bothering the fuck out of me like I it's a valid complaint that they have so they wear these like temporary like rubber band no bitch put your ring on. So you're leaving all day you're taking your ring off like yeah I don't care what am I doing here. I just want to say it's a completely valid complaint. And you need a reminder that you have a wife at home and your your pink your finger is going to pinch. And if he wants an aura ring that's a completely separate topic. And his HSA? Great. He should get an aura ring and a wedding band. Yeah. I'm not of this culture. What do you
Starting point is 01:05:32 think about people who tattoo rings on their fingers? Sure. I don't have an opinion on it. Instead of wearing a ring. Because it's so permanent. I don't have an opinion on it. It's not my wheelhouse. Yeah. I don't mind it. Like if that works for you and your partner, great. If Zach wanted, like that just wouldn't happen around here. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know? Yeah. I don't mind it. I don't have an opinion.
Starting point is 01:05:55 But I don't think you're being too sensitive. Like wedding rings, like we're all wearing them. Everyone in the marriage should wear the ring. Like Oura Ring never even said like, hey, get one so you don't have to wear it. Like they never said that. No one said that. It's two separate things. Also, or a ring never even said, like, hey, get one so you don't have to wear it. Like, they never said that. No one said that. It's two separate things. Also, I don't know what type of ring he had before, but, like, I actually,
Starting point is 01:06:10 Ben and I, Ben has lost his ring. And also, you should just get used to not being super attached to the man's ring. Ben has lost his ring twice. They're so much cheaper that, like, thank God it's not me losing my ring twice. But I would try and lose a little bit of your attachment to it because the actual ring that he got on the day, men lose their rings all the time. And I feel like at some point I'm just going to start buying vague ones
Starting point is 01:06:32 from a $3. But then he'll lose it even more. Well, I'm not going to tell him. Oh, that's good. That's good. He doesn't listen to the show. So I would just come to terms with the fact that probably this one that you are about to get him, he's not going to have forever either.
Starting point is 01:06:47 Yeah, but it's not a big deal. But an Oura Ring is not a wedding band. Oh, an Oura Ring is not a wedding band. And don't get us wrong, Oura Rings are amazing. But a wedding ring it does not make. No. If you need advice from two people who are seriously going to tell you the truth, like, sorry, whether you like it or not,
