Good morning, millennials, and welcome back to the toast. Happy Tuesday. Thank you for choosing to spend the day with us. Yesterday was a long one. Don't you feel? Yesterday was giving multi-day, multi-hyphenate. It was giving multi-day that turned out to be solo day, and it's only the day of the choose, after all.

Speaking of hyphenate, like, okay, tangent almost immediately. Growing up, there was, like, one kid in every class who had, like, a hyphenated last name. It was, like, Cohen Schwartzberg. And it was, like, kind of embarrassing. Like, why do you have two last names? It was like, ew. Never have I understood anything more now as an adult. Like, yeah, that was a mom who knew her worth and she knew where she stood and she had power. And honestly, like as much as we clowned on that kid, we should have been respecting him because he was raised by a powerful woman. I do think we have had this conversation before or an iteration of it. And I have so many

thoughts. Like one, I think nowadays there's a lot more kids in the class like that. Like a lot more women really sticking up for their last name too. I feel as though we don't need a hyphen. Like why not just the two names? Why do we have to hyphenate it? Because if we're going to hyphenate it, let's make a joint last name. Yeah. it's time for the joint last name you know I actually had a teacher I think you had her too who had a hyphenated last name and she was much older so the fact that she had a hyphenated last name at her age was like way beyond her time do you remember that Hebrew teacher yeah she was a queen I think it's time for the fusion of last names I've been on this team for a while now however However, then it just makes things like muddy

when you think about your ancestors. Like you don't have the same last name as them. I'm not on the team of- Fusing. Of fusioning. Because like you said, you lose the history of a name. And that's what's so great about a name is the history that lies within it.

I think we're going with the better name. Phonetically, historically, whose family has a more impressive background? I also think that logistically, it would be easier for society if children took their mother's last names because like birth certificate, whether or not the father's in the picture, like you're going to be with the mother. And like sometimes people don't have a dad or don't claim their father and like they have his last name. Like that's weird to me. I completely agree. Like put some respect on the mother and we

can always confirm who the mother is and i feel like throughout history that's been much easier than it is now but now we have paternity tests so it's like a little crazy when someone's like running around with the last name i know what you're gonna say patriarchy oh i thought you're gonna say yes don't say it but yes what what prince har Harry oh oh no that's not I was gonna say yeah Prince Harry like questionable paternity what were you gonna say I'll tell you offline oh it's not an appropriate joke to make oh okay wow I'm so excited uh so yeah those are my thoughts I have accepted like the the societal framework that we live within and I don't push back against it but you asked me my thoughts on the matter and those are my thoughts like it makes no sense it makes no

sense it's downright disrespectful and you couldn't catch me like growing up as being one of those people who wasn't going to take her husband's last name I was like very like when people used to be like oh yeah like my mom's maiden I'm like okay why don't you grow your armpits out like it's so like crazy radical to me now um yeah it, it's going to be a problem. Like when the day comes. And imagine how you feel after you go through a pregnancy and give birth and you literally have just like tore yourself open giving birth

and the baby has the dad's last name. Like make it make sense when you've watched your husband do nothing for 10 months. I don't foresee myself having that experience because like that kid is going to be ashr. I like, it's just the more, but I live the less far, the more far away I get from that thing. At first it was like, of course I'll take my husband's name. Then I got married. I'm like, okay, you know what? Like when I have kids, I'll take my husband's name so that we all have the same last name. Now I can keep pushing back what I'm going to have kids. And then the

day finally comes and the kid pops out and we're like, Oh, you'reashley like right but just think about Ben's experience now we let now the camera the book shifts to what is Ben's experience where he's been so excited his whole life to have like little who cares BSC junior who literally who gives a fuck it's not so simple turdy you know my mother-in-law actually not that I tried or even considered my fight with zach was like he really wanted me to change my name by the time like legally change it by the time i gave birth and then like once he saw what pregnancy entailed he kind of and and giving birth try telling a pregnant woman what he kind of like backtracked on that the good news is if you don't change your name by the time you give birth for the two days in the hospital you will have baby boy asha your baby your baby girl, Asha, because it's,

you're the patient. No, what my mother, now that I'm like finally looking at it, I think my mother-in-law, she was always like same last name, same, and then like her kids grew up and I think she kind of went back. She was like, you know what? Like I am me. She kind of like controls eat it. And that's a good move too.

She still goes by her married name, but like she'll throw in that maiden name in there a lot. I'm like you know what now I understand like her kids are grown. They can make their own choices. Like let's go back to our roots. Yeah it's not a perfect system. No. I don't envy the people who had to make these decisions but I think they made the wrong one. I also think coming from a family of all women we feel extra like icky about just like giving it up. Right because the name you know I mean there are other out there in the world, not even of close, super close relation to us, but the name ends with us in this family. And that makes me sick. So yeah, I don't know if I'm just going to be turning over and spreading my cheeks.

I don't know. I look forward to seeing what, how you handle this and navigate these situations. These muddy waters. Yeah, I actually really do. Maybe you could set an example for women because some of us like didn't do it. know i i look forward to seeing what how you handle this and navigate these situations muddy waters yeah i i actually really do maybe you could set an example for women because some of us like didn't do it well i know that you and olivia thus far have taken your maiden names and made it the child's middle name which i think is a great starting point starting point it might not be enough it might not be enough like not me having all my kids named ashley i actually think if i told ben like how i felt he would 1000 say okay really yeah oh my charity you have to do it for us for the fine okay for

women's rights but then does he become ben ashrae like i'm the where i'm in the type of relationship where like when it comes to booking trips and stuff like i'm the one making the plans i'm all of a sudden mr ashrae so when we get to hotels they always call ben mr ashrae and i love it i love it i'm like it suits you and there isn Mr. Oshrae and I love it. I love it. I'm like, it suits you. And there isn't a Mr. Oshrae like in my life right now. So it's not like he's usurping someone.

Yeah. It's kind of like this seat waiting to be taken. I absolutely need to know how he would feel about this. It would either be like a hard no. Should I just tell him if you're not busy, come into the podcast room? Yeah. I think this is a really interesting dialogue. And as Claudia and I- If you aren't on a call call can you come into the studio comma we need to have a conversation with you for the podcast period you are not in trouble oh my god caveat you are not

in trouble i sounded like the way i was like a principal yeah yeah come to the studio we need to have a conversation yeah i do think he might be okay with it like for real i think but also i don't know if I'm okay with it like yes I talk a big game so I am very traditional modern when it comes to like marriage and family I'm very very like modern I mean very like traditional and conservative there are other parts of my life where I'm a little bit more modern but when it comes to home and hearth no no I'm very traditional when it comes to generals and such but my issue with this is that it doesn't make sense like i like traditional gender roles because like they make sense a lot of them

like file follow biological trends love that love this stuff makes sense to me it's true it's anti-biology like i'm a i'm a rule follower but when the rules make sense make sense i think i hear bad that's where my wires come we're're having a conversation. We want your take on it. We need five minutes. We're having a very... Wait, stop talking because you're not on the microphone. So save all your commentary. And don't bump into the lights, please. It's fine.

We don't have time for you to dilly dally. Just sit right here. We are having... Ben, you're walking in front of the camera. It's okay. It's okay. I've grown. It's okay.

The stories aren't great yeah it's true we need this sort of take your time okay come sit we're having an important conversation and claudia is speaking for the both of you and we wanted to get your opinion okay so do you want me to explain i'll do it i'll do it just take your time just yeah sit right here and you can share my microphone okay hi romeo i would maybe turn your phone off. Yeah, like amateur hour. Literally, I was unscheduled for this. I'm sorry.

So Jackie and I were talking about this thing when you get married, changing of last names, having kids. And Jackie and I were talking about how she really had the boys go by wine. That was hard for her. She was pregnant for all this time. One of the pregnancies was extremely traumatic. she went through the trauma of childbirth and then

it's like you just work over this kid to this other name which is something that i just like accepted never push back against that's the norm but i just think it doesn't make a ton of sense like when the mother has the baby also proving paternity throughout history would have been easier if they carried the mother's last name whatever just like it kind of makes more sense logistically for but it doesn't. It's not. So then I was saying like when I was younger, like you can never catch me like not taking my husband's last name, not giving my kids my husband's last name. And the older I get, the closer to this event I eventually get.

I'm like, I don't know about that, especially like being like a family of women, like not a lot of, you know, male ashrays to take on the name. And Jackie was like, what would Ben say if you were like, I want our kids to have last name ashrays to take on the name and i jackie was like what would ben say if you were like i want our kids to have last name ashray and i said i feel like you wouldn't like be totally against it now feel free to take my microphone and tell me your thoughts and you can be totally unfiltered i think she would be surprised by how against it you would be incredibly against That said, just because we're not lesbians. That said, what we've always spoken about was, one, I love Asheray middle name. Well, that's what, yeah. Two, I love you keeping your maiden name for-

Always? Always, if that's what you want. Okay. what we had spoken about was the second that we have kids and the second the kids have school that then they would be like well you're you're you're okay well in this in this scenario just know you would also um be taking asha yeah so it's funny that we're, like, you would never want this. No, I really am torn. I'm torn, yeah.

You would never want this. You would never want this. No, no, it's just weird. No, I am with you. So then scooch over. No, I can't do this. I'm going to break my back. You're okay, you're okay. Jackie's microphone's almost easier.

I understand you, and I figured that's what you would say. She seemed to think, no, no, no, it's not even true. She knows, she knows maybe she's doing this for,

no, I want to say if I sat Ben down, like, and let's say like, um, you know, one day God willing pregnant. And I said,

Ben, I'm like, I've been thinking a lot. Like we have a really serious conversation about it. And I tell you like my feelings that like, you know, I don't think this is what I want. And if I had like really

strong opinions on it and I convey them to you in like a nice communicative way not live on a podcast not not an ambush I do think you would I wouldn't okay I wouldn't and and that's not to say that you couldn't convince me to do anything because you could but the same way that you feel uh like a sense of family a sense of pride the reason you your last name is ashrae is because your dad's name was ashrae like no it's true you wouldn't have that like i don't yeah that's like a thin argument but okay no it's true it's it's a family name it is there are so many advantages of being a woman one disadvantage what are they everything convincing me to do anything that you want me to do that's not me being a woman that's just me being smarter no that's you being a woman no no it's a woman's world it is and you're lucky to be living in it

yes everything except for the last name of a family i'm sorry we're not we're not we're not amish and strange that's what we needed we needed i think amish are actually very traditional and would never go for something like this. But I'm glad to have your take. And I figured that would be such. To think like for 32 years, your children will be your last name. And then in one day, they might not. I don't think the SE would have gone for it. Maybe this is us just planting the seed.

No, by the way, it's just not happening. Or you could try and tell my dad. Oh. Now there's an argument. It's like you can't do that to him to bruce you get to have the relationship with our children of having carried them of being the mother and being the mom i guess that's a good point privilege of being the mother and like what do you have nothing your name yeah my name that's true and maybe i'll send this episode to bruce and

see what he thinks yes okay thanks he'll cry I think this was a very good mock trial. I agree. And... I'm not going to comment on this, so... On your gooch? Get it while you can, ladies. Get it while you can. If you're watching on YouTube, you might have seen one of Ben's testicles.

I hope you enjoyed it. Yeah. Have you shown them Romeo's testicles? I have not shown them Romeo's testicles. You know, a fun fact about us extending Swirly Summer is that we've actually missed uh romeo's appointment i don't for neutering so if you rub his belly i never had this with theo his nuts never came in uh romeo has balls like two big balls keep romeo out of the vet you think i am really like big pet is real i don't know why they wouldn't poison them so that they would have to be on medication and need to go back to the doctor forever.

No, it's true. And Romeo out here, like, has missed all of his vet appointments. He's doing so great. Okay. Just go. Okay, now Ben wants to know if Romeo needs to get neutered. I think it would depend on the kind of lifestyle

Romeo plans to lead. Like, if he needs a very public lifestyle. A very social. A very, you know, with the women lifestyle. No, you can't have him, like, knocking up women. If he goes to dog parks, you know, he has to be neutered. But, like, if he lives, like, a kind of he goes to dog parks, no, he has to be neutered. But like,

if he lives like a kind of a life of solitude, the way he's living right now, if, if he lived the way he lives right now, the only other dog he sees is Bruno, who's a man and Magnolia, who's neutered. I would be okay with it.

But no, when we get back in the city, he goes on his walks. He goes to the park. He's super social. He has to be neutered for that. But if he lived like the life that Bruno lives, where he's,

whenever he's out, he's on a leash and he really can't be getting people pregnant I would say don't do it yeah also at this age usually you get them neutered fast because like it's really affecting their behavior Romeo's kind of my perfect king so like thus far I haven't seen a compelling argument as to why he needs to get neutered but when we get back to the city I will scene he yes not me being like so granola like I'm not gonna neuter my dog no like bruno didn't start getting sick until i took him to the vet in december i just want to say like back to ben yeah now we need to i feel like he like said that like like you know big dick on the podcast although like the thing about bruce is so valid and also

like he made some good points but i do think like let's say and i haven't even decided that this is what i want but if it was and i sat him down like i could convince him for sure but i think like let's say and i haven't even decided that this is what i want but if it was and i sat him down like i could convince him for sure but i think like what we just did here like set your cause back because i don't think you liked being ambushed like and it didn't come out in earnest yeah yeah okay we have some work to do if that's the road we choose to take yeah that's good but some things you just gotta accept i don't know. But like you can't fight every societal thing. No, of course. I think this is like a big one. You can't fight City Hall, literally.

But you do have to do it for the women. Like as a woman with a platform. And influential women. I think if I did it. You would inspire a lot of women. Oh my God. You just did that thing you hate. I'm one of those people who doesn't know the difference between the word woman and women.

Oh my God, that bothers me so much. much so much i did it because i stumble over my words as i do but when people do it in writing there's no excuse you know who's always doing that lauren elizabeth is she oh my god now you're calling her out i thought you no no the real housewives all of them they all are always doing it like and this group of women i hate totally totally oh my god speaking lord elizabeth no shade i love you so much i know you're not following i haven't seen you do it in a while i know you're not following the real housewives of new jersey no i'm trying not to because i'm doing the thing where i want to watch and i don't want it to be spoiled jackie but then

i never watch it real housewives of utah i still don't know what she said okay and it's so crazy that there's all this rhetoric about like this season's a flop and they're going to reboot the craziest finale. Feels so good to be me right now. And you like we have, we have been staunch in our March standard. And that doesn't mean we can't acknowledge it. Like she's a shit starter for sure. But like the, the reputation she's gotten for being this sort of like bone carrier who

goes out and, you know, reaches out to ex-girlfriends and and and collects this information the crazy I won't spoil it for you but I just want to say like if you're watching Real Housewives of New Jersey like I see you if you have been like loyal to Marge this entire time like what a great day to be us and someone like me I've always held out a lot of hope for Dolores. And she came through? No. Oh. She kind of let me down. I want to watch.

Let's watch this week. A thousand percent. Okay, great. It's, and I, and remember when I started this season and I like three episodes, three episodes of the toast in a row, I just like could not stop going off about Jackie Goldschneider. It's like, I'm kind of a, a truth teller in the sense that everything I said was right like probably one of like the biggest L's anybody's ever taken on the housewives ever and you're not even a full-time cast member and you're dying to be uh it feels so good to be me okay I'm definitely gonna watch let's add that to the content plate yeah because my content plate is

about to get lighter we did finally record yet redheads yesterday like couldn't get this episode off the ground but we finally recorded it. It was so fun. It was the perfect summer episode for our summer book. And it should be up today. I'm going to just edit it. It doesn't require much. You know, the girls were kind of one take wonders.

Things of that nature. And I'm really excited about that. It's been like a really long process. So my content and my plate should be lighter after that. And you filmed the Redheads in this here studio. How was that experience? It was a positive experience. I feel like we railed so much on our old studio. Like we need to give just as many compliments to this studio because yesterday I felt so good like using my hands. And then I watched our episode. It looked kind of gorgeous.

Yeah. Even though this aesthetic is super masculine and me in this like bubble pink outfit today, could I look more out of place in the studio? But we're still being ourselves. Like we're always going to be true to us. I just feel, I feel like the studio has kind of everything to us. I like it. I like the cozy thing. The only thing that really like bothers me is that picture behind you. Yeah. A lot of people have been remarking on the unique choice of artwork behind me. The picture behind me is gorgeous. And a part of me wants us to sit in front of this picture, but then we don't get a corner and we love a corner. No when you film like directly not to bore people like on a flat couch how we did the last studio it has no dimension no depth right this is better but yes no he's so happy the

artwork behind me is extremely bizarre I did see a lot of comments of people thinking it was an intentional ode to turdy's biggest regret that time I didn't get in the cop car which I like adding a little bit of lore and Jackie was like this house by the way whoever owns this house has amazing taste in art it's really like some of the sickest art Jackie was like let's just go pick up and swap a piece I didn't want to be moving this guy's stuff around like I already like brought in my lights like it's a lot yeah let's see how it's hung yeah no I like it like there's so many swirly pictures there's Queen Elizabeth blowing a bubble I know but Jackie like, like this piece of artwork equals engagement. It's true.

And now it's kind of a cornerstone of the toast brand, even though like, I guess it's the Mona Lisa riding in the backseat of a police car that's also sort of fading away. Oh my God, I didn't see that the Mona Lisa was in the background. It's an interesting piece of art. I think it's an homage to the Paris Olympics, like the Mona Lisa. I love that. You know, take her away, boys. And then behind you, we have Brigitte Barjot on a sailboat smoking a cigarette, which is just kind of the essence of Swirly Summer. No, it really is. It's

such a shame that you can't see the whole thing. It's really gargipargy. Maybe we'll do a studio tour. Maybe we should. So I think without further ado, we've got some crap stories today, which kind of means nothing for the future of this show. It's just like there were so many like half stories out there. I had to choose five. Like I could have chosen 10 or I could have chosen zero sort of thing. But it's days like today that always churn out some of the better episodes. So what would the story lack?

What the stories lack in energy? Like we always make up for it in like DeLulu. Yeah, that's always true. No, there's things in which to discuss. So without further ado to do to do here are the fast five stories that you need to know and today's episode is brought to you by teeny lux you all know teeny lux by now they are one of our favorite new sponsors if you listen you know we first found them a couple months ago because i have been complaining

on the pod about how i find wearing earrings to be so annoying because i'm always so aware that they're there. Like literally I love doing remote episodes because we wear headphones and I don't have to wear earrings. But the founder of Teeny Lux is a toaster. So she reached out saying, can I send you some earrings? I promise these will be the most comfortable earrings you've ever tried. You won't even notice them. For the first time ever, I honestly forgot I was wearing earrings. I don't even feel them. Their founder started this brand because she also had super sensitive ears and nothing was working for her. They make all of their earrings with pure titanium because it's the safest metal for sensitive ears. If you've ever had problems wearing earrings, you need to try these. So sensitive ears, it's a real problem. It's a

real issue and it affects many of us. But even if you don't have sensitive ears like turd who can really just put like a dirty nail. I could put a piece of duty in between my earlobes and I would be none the wiser. Like it's kind of a blessing not to brag even if you're a turdy it's still such a great earring destination for everyday studs and hoops and just like little things if you like to switch up your earrings they have all these different assortment of earrings but also if you like a classic look they have a classic look I'm a classic look sort of girl no it's just annoying because like earrings really dress up a whole outfit and if you're really limited and like what you can buy for earrings you can't be like fun and fresh every day like a whole pocket of

girlhood totally so they also have statement earrings that are perfect for brides bridesmaids or wedding guests visit teeny luxe.com and use code toast at checkout for 20 off your first purchase that's t-i-n-i-l-u-x.com use code toast for 20% off of your order.

Glenn Powell is in final talks to join J.J. Abrams' new secret movie, as is Jenna Ortega. So Jenna Ortega's in final talks to join jj abrams new secret movie as is jenna ortega so jenna ortega is in final talks we here to join jj abrams secret untitled movie at warner brothers the star will star opposite glenn powell who is also finalizing his deal few details are known about the movie other than it's not a time travel movie abrams wrote the script and his bad robot is producing it so like jenna ortega casting news is like could never be something I would like give even a shred of a shit about. The Glenn Powell addition to this story changes things.

It also puts into perspective the conversation we had yesterday about him and Gracie Abrams quote unquote flirting. Maybe they just know each other. From JJ's movie. I feel like when you get cast in a JJ movie, it's like a kind of a process. You come to JJ's house. Yep.

You meet JJ family. You meet JJ dog. You swim in JJ pool. Like you have to do all of these things. So I feel like it was kind of a reunion. And I just want to say, I still ship. I don't think Glenn Powell is stupid.

Like I don't think he would start dating JJ Abrams' daughter before. No. It's like you can't, nobody just gets cast in a JJ Abrams movie. It's like such an honor. You don't fuck it up. And even if he fell in love with her upon meeting her, I think he'll wait till the movie wraps.

I completely, like maybe she will be his date on the premiere. Yeah. But no, I don't think that these two are, and that's sad because I had like been excited about this, but no, like Glenn Powell is a lot of things. He's not stupid, but he's also like a really hard worker. I think he sees himself on some sort of track to being really a huge movie star yeah and he's not gonna fuck it up yeah i agree glad to have some answers about that conversation from yesterday

before we all like took off with shipping glenn and gracie yeah even though it's a cute couple name yeah glacy or gren i like gren i like glacy yeah are you ready for our next story another Glacey. Glacey. Or Gren. I like Gren. I like Glacey. Yeah. Are you ready for our next story? Another update from a mystery from yesterday. A mystery? Spooky. Which is what happened to Zac Efron in the pool.

Oh, yeah. I saw this explanation. It's years in a documentary before we finally know what happened. And I'm so happy to be able to tell you guys today was that he was hospitalized after hitting the bottom of the pool in a diving accident. So the cause of Zac Efron's recent hospitalization following a swimming incident has been revealed. He was vacationing at a villa in Ibiza over the weekend when he went for a swim with friends at the property's pool. While he was there, he had a minor swimming incident. A source confirmed to People that he ingested water

into his lungs when his chest hit the bottom of the pool after his dive. TMZ first reported the news. Villa security helped pull him out of the water after he showed signs of distress. The source adds that he was dazed momentarily and therefore taken to the hospital out of an abundance of caution. There, he had x-rays done on his chest to ensure no water remained in his lungs. Though he was medically cleared within hours, he decided to wait at the hospital until paparazzi who had followed him to the hospital left the source said he is fine um okay i that could have been so bad okay like diving like gives me the willies like i diving into a pool that's too shallow if his if his chest hit the bottom then it wasn't as deep as he thought it was but deep enough that like he didn't really get hurt I think there are a lot of people out there who like aren't in wheelchairs

or are paralyzed in certain ways and and so it's very common that the the incident that got them there is like pool diving shallowness related and when I think about it like it gives me like a chill down my spine like the willies this could have been so bad yeah oh thank god like seriously yeah and I do think it's um speaks to what we said about zach yesterday which is like he likes to have fun and he likes to have adventure and sometimes the two don't mix and i think that's exactly what this was like maybe if he i don't know what his state of mind was but diving is a fun thing and swimming is fun but if you're a little impaired it can get a little dicey it can get a little dicey practice safe swim no and also like let's just

take a moment and thank god like zach aphron's okay it could have been really bad yeah yeah but i don't know if like like i didn't know he showed off a picture yesterday of him in the gym yeah i feel like maybe like just take a beat you know like it's okay not to work out no totally and like your lungs it's like you're breathing heavy when you work out like just chill yeah it's like everyone like seriously needs a nap yeah however like this story doesn't like point to something potentially like worse for me like I actually feel like it's congruous like with what we think about him you know what I'm just thinking about I can't really recall a long-term relationship that Zac Efron was in after Vanessa Ann Hudgens because I was gonna say you live recklessly like this when you're single

it's like okay maybe he'll settle down but it's like he's low-key like 40. I feel like he dated that girl who's a designer for a long time. Who? Let me just make sure. I feel like he dated that blonde girl. Hold on. Whose name? I don't know.

Sammy Miro. Who's that? She's a fashion designer. Okay, cute. Okay, timeline. Thank you, Us Weekly. His famous exes oh my god they were together for two years he dated alexandra daddario okay well he always

is rumored to be dating his co-stars even like he had a crush on zendaya that's kind of his thing when he promotes movies so vanessa and lily collins he dated collins in 2012 long before the two made their long before the two made their net long before the two made their Netflix flick. Oh, they had a movie. Oh, you're right. Co-star.

Oh yes. Michelle Rodriguez. But I feel like all of these are flings. Also, Kelly, Sammy Miro. Yeah. He settled down once more in 2014 with businesswoman Miro.

And then Alexandra Daddario rumors began swirling about the pair after they co-starred in 2017 is Baywatch. Daddario shot them down that May we worked together closely he's my love interest in the film I understand why people would go crazy over something like that but Zach and I are very good friends yeah there's a lot of that with him and I think he fell in love with oh my god wait do you know that there were rumors that he dated Rebecca Ferguson from The Greatest Showman no I didn't know that what's her name Jenny in the movie Jenny Lind so The Great greatest showman stars neither confirmed nor denied dating speculation after efron

shared a shot of her looking at him lovingly with his arm wrapped around her in december 2017 a picture's worth a thousand words he wrote at the time only word i can think of now are what the fuck are you thinking dude look at her hashtag greatest showman hashtag rebecca ferguson oh those are comments like okay thanks um and then sarah bro the couple first sparked dating rumors in 2019 they were spotted attending a fitness class together this i remember holliston sage when they went to uh i just remember them seated i remember this photo of them seated at courtside at a game together neighbors cast me he like you're right he always falls in love with his

not even i think he like really plays into it for like movie pr and i think he knows that's like a great way to get people interested. Like who's Zac Efron dating. So might as well make it a promo for his movie. But we're on to you. Okay. Like none of these are confirmed. That's the thing.

Except I think Halston Sage. Because there was like that picture of them. They don't look like a couple in that picture. So funny. Like Zac Efron has really went through so many different like eras in terms of his physical appearance like who remembers Bleach Efron yeah Blefron that was a dark time no it was like a it was a long period of that too and then he went through like very um well coiffed like suave clean shaven and then he had like a sort of like rugged boy era he's kind of crazy they could never make me hate him no i know nobody's trying thank god no i feel

like they are and they're like what's with this face i don't care oh the face yeah i don't care what i my i know what's in his heart my thoughts on his face are not like socially acceptable to say you say them all the time. Do I? I know I said it at Gizno. I know I said it at Gizno. Okay. Well, Gizno is different.

Which is like a safe space. And I told everybody to put their phones down so I could like say what I really thought like and like what's going on. But I would never say that on this here show because, you know, this is a business. Yeah. And I don't care. No, me neither. I don't care.

Like not at all. I all love in my heart for the Zac Efron for Zac Efron are you ready for our next story what are the Zac Efron fans you would know as like the leader of them what do they call themselves like what's the swifty equivalent i actually don't know i'm so curious like what his fan page is we could look it up because you know he has that core disney following they love to name themselves fan what are the miley fans call themselves uh smilers smilers smilers the selenators the swifties i'm really not part of any like fandom communities i kind of do my own thing you're a toaster i am a toaster but like even you know the sabrinas i don't know what they're called the carpet i guess i'm a bootlegger you are a bootlegger that's luke holmes yeah and you're not a swifting no i'm not i'm a taylor

swift fan i'm a taylor swift fan but i'm not a swifty and i think the two are not the same distinction i agree i don't know where his fan name is maybe he doesn't have one not everyone does damn like i don't think brad Brad Pitt's fans have like a community. Zach Efron have a fan club. The Zach Efron fan club. Okay. I'm in a place. I don't want to be here.

Yeah. No, that's a dark, that's a dark corner of the internet. Are you ready? If you don't know the name, if you don't know the name of a community, it's not popular.

It's not popular. And you're certainly not a part of it. Oh, for sure. Cause I think other people have communities. I don't know that. Yeah. Now, are you ready for our next story?

What number? Three. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Blake Lively is on her press tour for It Ends With Us, wearing more flower outfits than we can count and probably one million flowers in total in every single look that she's worn to promote her movie so far.

She's been making a lot of news, which I love. The most recently is, I guess, this flower outfit. But she also outfit is a flower outfit, flower power. She posted one of these flower outfits like in her New York city apartment. And for some reason, whenever she takes a picture inside her New York city apartment and we see like, you know, a little bit of the decor, the internet goes berserk. I think there's like this huge mystery around. I think her and Ryan Reynolds have this insane apartment that nobody's ever seen the inside of and every now and then I saw the headline where it's like Blake Lively shows bit of you know private apartment and I was like oh sweet I want to see your apartment it was just her in the foyer yeah taking like going out pictures and it looked like a little nutty the

decor but like a couple of I think maybe like a year ago now she took a picture in this like sick jumpsuit in her bedroom and you saw like her clearly like her master bathroom and like how it connects to, and it's like this old wooden barn door. I think it's probably like this insane apartment and we get like very little pieces of it and everybody like crames their pants over it. But something I want to talk about and why I asked you to just choose a random Blake Lively story.

You know, I do want to talk about her press tour and her looks. Same, but I want to talk about the press tour because somebody posted in our Facebook group something that really shook the foundation in which I walk. And I hadn't noticed it at the time. But somebody was like, has anybody else noticed? One, that like Justin Baldoni has been like kind of MIA from the It Ends With Us press

tour thus far. And Colleen and Blake Lively no longer follow Justin Baldoni on Instagram but Justin Baldoni follows them now I went to Instagram because people love to say like right right right it's it's real and he is now posting like as of yesterday like headed to New York so excited to start it ends with us press tour like letting everyone know his press is coming but like up until this point there has been so much he plays which one he plays Ryle and he's the director oh he was the one who like found the script with colleen it was like him and colleen taking pictures before anyone got cast

it was the justin and colleen show and now it's the blake and colleen show i mean that doesn't surprise me i think that i the idea of getting a book turned into a movie and no one's feelings getting heard along the way like there's gonna be artistic division and for it to be the author and the lead actor, like, but Blake too. Blake. Well,

I think cause Blake is a swirly and she's team Colleen and she recognizes Colleen's work. And I didn't even realize it till this person pointed out, but there has been so much press like, and it's been Colleen and Blake. They went to like book Topia. They did a screening for the special screening for fans. They,

and it's every time Blake has been like with the co-stars, it's with the two young, the young Ryle and the young Lily. And they're all really really close and it's like i didn't even realize until this person pointed out where in the world is justin baldoni that's so interesting i i didn't notice for one second because like i don't really care what the men are doing when it comes to things like this when it comes to press too i think like this perceived drama is good for the movie okay for sure but can we and also because like one another frustrating part about blake's casting even though i'm mostly over it especially because margo said the movie's amazing she said the movie is perfection it's amazing or sister margo like

loki got to see the movie she saw a screening of it she's and she's the biggest fan of the book she made all of us read it she said the movie is incredible she was in at least she talks about it on the redhead she gave a little bit of a recap good um so i think what the movie though doesn't have because blake was cast is like she's a married woman with four children there's no of this zach efron will they won't they you know romantic lead drama and i think that's what the press of this movie would need we see how it benefits all those other movies and so maybe not that i'm so jaded but like maybe a little bit of this is like drumming up some interest in drama in the movie because they don't have that.

Well, a lot of people had thought, because I saw the toasters were freaking out, like everybody was leaving comments and someone was like, well, you know, Ryle is very much the villain of this movie. So it could be intentional that they don't want him to be like at the center of the press. That makes no sense.

One, he's the director. And two, they're villains in every movie. Like they still have to do press. Right. And also Margot was saying in her recap, like you forget center of the press that makes no sense one he's the director and two they're villains in every movie like they still have to do press right and also margo was saying in her recap like you forget how in the book you're kind of rooting for ryle like you want him to be changed to be the one for her and like get his shit together and like she said like you really feel that in the movie so i don't even think he's like the outright villain right so i feel like there's drama like i actually do i don't think we'll ever get down to the bottom of it but like Glavine's like not like that at all um but you don't go from being the person

who discovered the script and like really made Colleen Hoover as a person obviously she's always been a famous writer but like her face made her like this star I think there's something totally going on and I just want to say I feel like Justin Baldoni like is a like a nightmare and there were like rumors that he's like a tough director whatever but I think this person I think it's more than creative differences and I think when it was announced that it ends with us as being made into a movie and the first piece of news we got was like Justin Baldoni is at the helm of it I want to go find that episode I said I don't like this I'm not a Justin Baldoni fan there's something you know abyssal not right who is this person why does everyone like have an opinion on him that That's what I said too. And we,

we never watched the Jane, the Virgin. And that's where he got his start and like why people are obsessed with him. Cause he was like the heartthrob in that. So we missed that, the, his rise, you know,

he just sort of arrived to us one day. Got it. Okay. Yeah. I'm not a part of this. I don't have an opinion on this man and I'll wait to see the movie. Yeah, me too.

But I do think there's something going on. Like when, why would he follow them and that they not follow him? And it's not like, like Labi follows like three people. Actually, let me go see. Colleen Hoover follows me. Okay.

Well, you're a influencer in the literary space. She follows 500 people. So that's not like an absurd amount. Is he like a, does he run his own Instagram? You know, why does she need to follow the Justin? Oh, 3.2 million followers. I just want to say there was a time where Colleen Hoover followed him. Colleen Hoover follows 3000 people.

He has so many followers from Jane the Virgin. Now people are saying, you know, oh, he had surgery. Maybe that's why. Sure. You could come up with a reason why he hasn't been in the press tour up until this point. Them not following him something's up something's up especially Colleen how many people does Colleen 3,000 and he follows them yeah I feel like maybe Blake never followed him to begin with

maybe but I don't know they were like all in this together it was like this big thing for everyone I don't know well I just want to say as far as the looks everyone is different and there's some really high highs like in the floral motif yeah and she looks beautiful and then there's some that are like my less of my favorites but overall i like what she's doing because it's so congruous with the character lily bloom who works at a flower shop and her name is lily bloom agreed and it's very much like yeah we can't do like a method romance. Yep. But we can do some method dressing. Yeah, yeah. No, there are ways to like promote a movie without the two main characters being.

And I think that it ends with us as not having an issue. And when it comes to like a shortage of press. Yeah. But it would have been cool if it was like two single. Of course. Or not even married. Like even, you know, people without children. Like you could just pretend for one second, like maybe the chemistry on screen translated off screen.

Cause that's how you make a successful romance movie. Yeah. Romance. Romance. I like when you put the emphasis on the wrong syllable. Me too. Whoever came up with that, that little jingle about the wrong emphasis.

No, the emphasis on the wrong syllable. Like they fucking ate with that shit they did like you're teaching me a lesson with your limerick like i loved it yeah yeah more of that that's more of that energy in 2024 like nothing you're literally being over i was thinking that the other day because majorly halfway over i know i was thinking was thinking that. Oh, because we posted that clip. I posted that clip on my TikTok about somebody vaping at one of our Gizno shows. Speaking of Gizno, we're headed to Atlantic City August 17th. Can't wait to see you guys there.

Tickets available at thetoastpodcast.com slash tour. The Borgata. Make it a weekend. Great hotel. Great spa. Great casino. Great restaurant. So somebody reminded me that it's been now like eight months since I stopped vaping because

it was my new year's resolution like January 1 was the last time and I was like damn the year's literally over I just stopped vaping yeah but not really I'm eight months clean that's so great 10 months so like when it's October no wait what's the 10 month October October 1st 2024 I will be on Instagram except we all saw you vape on stage at Jitsnow, but that doesn't count. I did not vape on stage. Oh, you didn't? I didn't take a puff of that man's vape.

What do you think? I'm disgusting like that? I'm sure he was clean, but who's a strange man? If it had been a girly, like I probably would have done it. Okay. But no.

Oh my God, I totally thought you did. Ew, no. Oh my God. No, I would never. But, and by the way, that's not to say that I have not taken a puff of a vape. Yeah. I've probably taken six puffs in the last eight months when I'm drunk one at a time

and I'm able to leave it at that. But yes, on October 1st, 2024, I will be taking a picture with a vape and posting it on my Instagram with a caption, 10 months sober, I must admit, just because you're clean don't mean you don't miss it. Beautiful. I need to actually set an alarm. Oh, that's a good idea siri remind me on october 1st 2024 at 10 a.m to post an instagram do you think she can handle that i don't use siri for that like that's a lot okay i added it

sure you did i don't use the reminders app it's the toasters will remind you please thank you i need to find like a cool photo of me like back in the day when I used to be like I used to take a million pictures for my close friends story like, you know, totally. Yeah, I got to find one of those. Are you ready for our fourth story? No. Okay, let's get ready to rumble. Is it our fourth story that's brought to you by skims?

grocery store and not look crazy. Like it needs to walk the line of being outdoor and indoor clothing. And I think Skims does that perfectly. I'm looking normal. I'm looking put together when I walk outside, but I'm also not changing when I get home and I'm laying on the couch for the rest of the day. Like I think that balance is really hard to find. And I think Skims has done that perfectly. Now Skims is a brand that we know, that we love, that we trust when it comes to undies, bras, shapewear.

Our next story is actually a little Kim Kardashian news. And in choosing this story, I realized we have not had a Kim story in months. I think that's good for her. Like, I think she took the temperature of the culture because she was like trying to make fetch happen. It wasn't happening. And I think it was actually having like a negative effect on her like fandom. I think they've all like kind of taken a step back,

especially summer celebrities just like live quietly. I think they're just like enjoying their lives, enjoying the fruits of their labor. She works so hard. Like we see on the show, we see through all of her businesses and like, what's all that for if you can't enjoy it? And I feel like right now she's enjoying it. I didn't even realize because I hadn't heard from her but she's clearly enjoying life right now because she is in Greece with Lauren Sanchez and Jeff Bezos oh my god obsessed you know that they have like that famous yacht yeah and they also have a second boat that it's like the service boat to the big boat where like the helicopter lands and they keep all like the pool floats and the life that's crazy everything they have a second yacht for storage yeah but they like they can fly

people in and out of their boats so i think they just like post up all summer it's sick and it's like a revolving door of cool people cool people and right now kim is in greece she posted a series of photos from her june vacation this was from june oh but she just not letting us know yeah she just posted these photos with Lauren Sanchez and also um that's so unlike her Olivia Pearson yeah yeah like I'm cracking up that Jeff Bezos is with a wag like I can't also this is so unlike Kim like Kim has always been steadfast in her like living life authentically, like posting in real time. Or like that night once the pictures come back and she can edit them. But okay, so anyways, in June,

she was with Lauren Sanchez and Jeff Bezos, which like I'm still stuck on. No, me too. But also I'm stuck on the fact that she's later gramming. I feel like this is a huge shift. Like she's the Instagram girl. She makes the rules. She sets the tone.

She creates the trends on social media. And she's the instagram girl she makes the rules she sets the tone she creates the trends on social media and she's always been authentic in her in her timing yeah and i think the fact that she went on a vacation and two months later posted about it is actually extremely telling of like how much things have changed for the kardashians and exactly what we just said like she's just been enjoying her life which is good yeah which is good and she's also been on vacation recently with all four kids they look like they're on some I think they're in Idaho like some sort of they do like to go to the lake yeah lake trip exactly love that but I just like it's so funny that she's so close with

Lauren Sanchez no and that's like been a huge I think help in Jeff Bezos's image and Lauren Sanchez does not get enough credit for that and And Justin Sylvester said this on the podcast and it was so true. Like being the partner of an extremely wealthy man is a full-time job. And when he said it, I thought he was kidding, but he's not. And you know, Justin, like he's a lady sitter.

He hangs out with these women all the time. Being Lauren Sanchez is a full-time job and getting Jeff Bezos, like on the right side of pop culture, having, you know know Chris and Kim and having them all float in like traveling coordinating that travel like that's a huge job and I think about a lot when Justin Sylvester said that on the podcast because I really thought it was a joke but he's so right like look what she's done for him and not only in a physical

sense he looked so different no and also like he has cool friends but I feel like even the way we perceive him now is better and more positive than it used to be when before they started dating she's his travel agent she's his publicist she's his hair and makeup artist she's his partner like social events coordinator she has done more for Jeff Bezos than Amazon ever could and it's it's really been incredible to watch yeah and I think like as a person she's fun like I don't think Kim Kim really can't be bought like Kim like yes loves to rub elbows with the rich and famous but at the end of the day like Kim keeps people around her yeah she has a very close circle and she's had the same people around her for years and years and I think it speaks to you know Lauren say I almost always call her

Nicole can you help me does she look like Nicole Scherzinger is that like why do I almost always my inclination is to say her name is Nicole Sanchez I don't know but she does look like a Nicole and Lauren and Nicole are similar names yes thank you but also to say I think it speaks to the type of girly swirly energy that Nicole Lauren possesses yes but also the fact that like Jeff Bezos could have anyone's heart desires she must be just a fabulous swirly no and the fact that she's age appropriate, like, I'm obsessed. Yeah, I'm looking forward to their wedding.

Same. They've been engaged for a while. They have been. I think they got engaged last summer. It must be, like, imminent. Coming up in a year. They love that boat, too. They'll take that boat.

No, but if you're going to have that much money, like, I'm, like, literally off screen. You're also having a hard time today, like, adjusting. My butt is hurting more than ever. So funny funny because what i was going to say about this studio i haven't i don't want to jinx it i haven't had any butt issues no i i today is just like on another level and i'm literally falling off the camera this job is hard like people think like it's so easy i could do that no you can't like your butt hurts yeah anyways i feel like they

are really enjoying his money yeah it. It's so nice to see. They're leading like happy lives. Whereas we just read this book for redheads. We were talking about like, you know, the toxic side of wealth. And I feel like for them, like they really enjoy their wealth.

No. And it's like Elon. I know we love him, but like he's seriously. He does not enjoy his wealth for one second. He's in a house. Like he sleeps on people's couches. It's so unrelatable.

Could never be me. It's, but at least like his money doesn't make him like you know sick he's not sick about it like he doesn't worry about his money when he makes money he invested in the next company it's just like a means to an end for him it's not like something he wields over other people like in this book that we read but also he's not enjoying life like no and they take that i feel like we're always hearing about like them on this boat i think that boat goes from like same parts how do boats get around is that a dumb question do they just

boat to the next yeah they cruise there but like how do you get from greece to saint barts you take the boat what are you gonna put the boat on a boat no but like aren't those like i guess yeah you have it's a long trip i think you would stop over and get gas uh well of course we need to refuel but like aren't there parts of the ocean they are on the boat no no no no someone is yeah the crew and aren't there like parts of the ocean like that are like not safe like is that do i sound stupid piracy or in terms of like the ocean in terms of the ocean like there are parts of the ocean that are largely untouched right yeah but not not in europe and america and. Not parts that would connect like that. Oh, OK. Like what parts like Russia? Like what? Antarctica. Oh, OK. OK. OK.

But they're touched by, you know, the scientists and researchers down there. But no, I don't think he could take his boat to Antarctica yet. Got it. If anyone could do it, it's him. It will be him one day. But I also feel like being in this like loving relationship is really making him take his foot off the gas a little bit in terms of like the space race like he's always competing with elon i feel like he's realizing now like there's space for both of us not only that you can't dance at every wedding you can't be the best at space and the what amazon has done he's a lot to be proud of they have destroyed millions of mom and pop shops like they things they did that they've destroyed brick and mortar like they've shifted the culture that's huge like that's his thing yeah Elon is the space guy like why do you have to be

but he's also the space guy I think like you forget he's a nerd too yeah and like he is successful and did Amazon and business because like he's a nerd and he had a love of space too yeah it's not just to like mess with Elon that's what I got from reading Elon's book like Jeff likes it too right there's space for lack of a better word for all of them yeah I like that woman supporting woman energy woman supporting woman yeah women supporting women and our fifth and final story is Olympics recap once again a few things happened when we watched women's gymnastics last night and it was a wild ride devastating for that girl peacock milked every last second of us put every sport in between so we like we ended up watching so much volleyball

track and field 11 p.m to see simone's floor routine jordan's rebecca's and it was kind of a crazy night in the individuals like everyone was on edge yeah the balance beam was slippery clearly I hate the balance beam like and I know I actually we fun fact we did gymnastics growing up not of any sort of level but I have my experience with the balance beam you know yeah and let me tell you it doesn't go away that feeling yeah so that was nerve-wracking um but I'm glad that so many of the competitors got to medal usually i'm not like a participation trophy medal for all but like these girls have worked so hard it means so much for everyone to win for their country to hear their their anthem played to like bring home a medal in every country that you get paid when you medal rewards different amounts for different

countries but like they're going home to be the pride of their country and simone and the girls they're the pride of america already like there's nothing more that they could do that we're not going to love them anymore we couldn't possibly we love them so much and we're so proud of them and no matter what happened like we're always going to feel that way so I'm glad that other people got to experience that even though that's typically like not my I agree but seeing those Italian gymnasts who worked so hard and like literally could not medal for the life of them both meddling in beam and then of course Rebecca who was so deserving of a gold medal I agreed like they're they're all really of the same caliber besides Simone like who's on her own

level they're all really the best at what they do and they all deserve gold medals so they've devoted their lives to this and it will make like a huge difference in their life whether they medal or not like you know when Italy hosts the Olympics like that now they'll be in the possession holding the torch versus if they didn't medal like maybe not so I think it was so awesome it all kind of worked out because the USA gymnast really had their moment and I want to say something about the USA gymnast now that like they're done okay and Sunni Jordan I was just watching them and you feel such pride for these young girls and I that we, everyone has had such a good time watching them. And I saw this video of Sunni and Jordan Childs like freaking out because they met Mariska Hargitay

and it was like so relatable. They were literally crying. And it was like, these are just, you know, all the girls, Jade, what is five of them? Such good role models for, for the country, but specifically for young women. I think they've held themselves. This has been like an eight year process. For Simone, she's three, three twelve years she's been in the spotlight and she's never been anything other than a fabulous role model for young girls all of them Sunni and you see them making their tiktoks and they're just so relatable and they're so well behaved and they're so beautiful and they're really just the best of us when it comes to like you know women in America and I'm gonna miss them being you know the name on everybody's lips and I think you know, women in America. And I'm going to miss them being, you know, the name on everybody's lips.

And I think, you know, we, we, we give them so much credit for being like amazing gymnast, but I don't think they get enough credit for being just amazing role models for young women. We don't have that, you know? No, we don't. And I just love them. And I think they're so sweet. And they just share every part of this journey with us on social media. And like them meeting Mariska, like it had, it started this, it was the catalyst for this, this process. And I'm like, you know what? They are just fabulous young women. And they are, they're the, you know, embodiment of hard work. And like they, they are, are teaching, not even just young women, but specifically young women, but everyone, the value of hard work, the value of commitment, the value of being, of being a good teammate, the value of sportsmanship.

the value of commitment, the value of being a good teammate, the value of sportsmanship. It's just been amazing to have them. They'll always be famous, but they're never going to be as famous as they are right now. And to have them be the thing everybody's talking about, I think benefits our nation greatly. I think that's a fabulous point. And I completely agree. I think a lot of the role models for young women, you know, are, it's a little dicey out there. Yeah. Oh, and you know what else started a little dicey out there yeah oh and you know what i'll start at this thought process i saw this commercial for suny shake the face of some eczema cream but then it reminded me she's struggled with like two major kidney issues like things that would put any athlete out any human being out and she came back and won the one at

medals in the olympics dealing with this and it's like she is just all of them like i feel this way about jordan about about all of them like they're feel this way about Jordan, about, about all of them. Like they're just fabulous girls. Yeah. And I love them. Yeah. And I'm proud of them and I am grateful for them. Yeah.

And it makes me sad that like, they'll never be as, you know, in the culture as they are in this moment, which makes sense. And it happens every four years, but even after this, they'll like have the commercials and all of that.

And I just hope that that moment lasts as long as it possibly can, because I think it's it's so great for them, but it's also really good for us and the country. Agreed. Because they really are positive, deserving, you know, people like they not like I have no issue with this girl, but like Hawk Tua gets more. Yeah. For saying I have no issue with her either. Actually, and I've seen a lot of clips of her and she seems like she has such a good

head on her shoulders. Agreed. Like such a nice girl. And she's handing all of this like so well. And and I have no issue with her either. Actually. And I've seen a lot of clips of her and she seems like she has such a good head on her shoulders, like such a nice girl. And she's handing all of this like so well. And, and I have no issue with her. It's more so like with, you know, spitting on a cock, like the culture that like, that's what we prop up. No, I agree. And I, I've seen videos of her too. I think she's giving so much back to her community.

Like, no, she's not at all what i thought she would be based on what coincidentally she happens to be like so deserving of all of this and is doing so much good with it and i'm so glad because she could have just been like a moron and she's so not she's very humble she loves her community she keeps giving back she's very charitable i completely agree but like that's not why they plucked her out no they plucked her out because she was like this hot girl talking about like cock sucking. Right. Right.

But she showed them. Yeah. Agreed. Which I actually love. So we're not down, like we're not putting her down. Not at all. I think she's fabulous.

I hope she gets every opportunity and I love that. Like, and I hope she's famous for a long time. I think she will because it seems like she's playing it really well and people aren't over it. And it's not like a five minute thing yep she's doing like so much yep so rest of the olympics recap a little cute olympics news olympic village news the um olympic rower in america just proposed to his girlfriend after winning the gold medal so after

becoming part of the first u.s men's rowing team to win a gold medal since 1960 the men's four rower appeared on the today show alongside his girlfriend where he surprised her by getting down on one knee and asking the easiest question of his life he said this is what cody simpson should do like on the good day australia but he can't because like he's not the olympian so then he's taking away from her moment oh so true like if the girl she could propose yeah if say simone and jonathan were just like dating and then he proposed at the olympics i think everyone away from her moment. Oh, so true. Like if the girl, she could propose. Yeah. If say Simone and Jonathan were just like dating and then he proposed at the Olympics, I think everyone would hate it. Yeah. Icky, sticky, sticky, sticky. That would be Cody. No, that's a good point. That's a good

point. This is so cute. Like people making my, I'm going to make my big moment about you. Not, I'm going to make your big moment about me. I think the reason I love the Olympics so much is because I think it's this really big deal. And the people who are there also like understand how big of a deal it is. Like nobody's too cool. Like I was even watching Peacock. They had this like Team USA party and all the basketball players were there and they were interviewing Kevin Durant. And I guess like he loves the Olympics. This is his fourth one. He's obsessed. It's like his favorite thing about being an NBA player. And the interviewer was like, you're like the Olympics guy. Like why? And it was just so cool to see someone get excited about something. It's hard to make Kevin Durant excited. Yeah. You could go to the Oscars. You could go to the White House.

Like he goes everywhere. And this excites him. And it's because like, and it's so pure. It's not like it's so glitzy and glammy. It's like just different people from different countries, you know, different life experiences, all bonding over. Like, it's just so sweet I love it like and everybody who's there loves it like even when you're saying Coco Goff and LeBron James two people who even yesterday we were talking about Novak Djokovic like people who have accomplished everything like it's hard to impress but even those people love the Olympics like I just love it yeah I love it bringing people together I think we've got one I know it's not a lot of time left a couple days I know and gymnastics is done yeah but I think we've got one. I know. It's not a lot of time left. A couple of days. I know.

And gymnastics is done now. But I think there's a lot of still really big things happening, especially in track and field and basketball, which like the USA is like kind of everything. Track and field has been fun to watch. Agreed. Oh, and also some more little Olympics news. That Italian pole vault jumper who's knocked down the pole. And he went viral because

he and I just want to say like and he finally gave a statement being like it's really unfortunate like my penis is the thing that it's not like you have like this huge penis I just want to say like it's funny but at the end of the day like you didn't do the vault because you're not good enough like sorry not to be so mean and you should be happy actually that the thing you weren't gonna get the pole vault anyway because you're clearly not skilled it's not like this new penis you've had the penis the whole time so you weren't going to win but you had a viral moment he's getting offers from like all these adults like yeah that he got a 250 000 offer from an adult website to show his junk and he just like he's being like woe is me in his statements and it's just like i don't agree because if it wasn't

your penis it was going to be something else you're obviously not skilled enough to have won yeah you haven't you trained with this penis his penis didn't just grow overnight i just want to say the penis didn't even look that big like he wasn't he was very close to the bar if it wasn't his penis it would have been his knee like please yeah please yeah and was he even close to meddling i don't know but like he didn't meddle so yeah so at least it's all funny but when you boil it down like you didn't meddle. So. Yeah. So at least. It's all funny. But when you boil it down, like you didn't meddle, not because of your penis, but because you sing. In that one moment, like it was the penis that took down the bar.

But if it wasn't the penis, it would have been something else. It would have been the tip of your nose. But he might have not cleared the next one anyway, because he barely cleared this one. Correct. Understood. So that's your Olympics recap. That's your show. I feel like from where we started, like I don't even know what we were talking about

to where we ended like we covered so much in today's episode and i peed right before the podcast and i was like honestly like i don't even know what the hell i'm gonna talk about today like i didn't have any like hot takes and any subjects i wanted to talk about but let me show you we covered a wide range of topics that's classic toast are you okay no i'm in so much pain i can i can't even sit here i don't know why. I don't know why. Tomorrow I will. You need to sit on a pillow or something. No, and also I'm sitting in between the crack of the couch. That's not helping.
