Good morning, Millennials!
Welcome back to The Toast, and happy Friday!
A celebración, a great, gorgeous, stunning, beautiful, and smart day.
Exactly.
Happy Friday, everyone. We did it.
We made it not only to the end of the week, but to the weekend of the year.
Oh my god, it's the party of the month, not the party of the year.
Super Bowl weekend, Jackson Turd reunited weekend.
I mean, that's so true.
It's like, I can't even be excited about what I'm going through.
I know you're going through a lot personally today.
And today was supposed to be such an exciting day.
The last toast before I go and see Jax, I was talking yesterday,
I was so much on the horizon.
And then in just a minute, your life can change.
So why don't you share with everyone what you're going through going through and you know what I didn't even want to talk about
it because I feel like it reflects poorly it does it does I didn't know if you were going to talk
about it honestly oh my god so should I not no you have to now and now we've hyped it up so
when you actually say it people be like oh that's it okay and I just feel like it's not
representative of who I am or the way I choose to live my life.
By the way, we just need to clip this as a clickbait where we're like,
Claudia needs to share. It reflects poorly on me. Okay. And be super clickbaity.
Yeah. I like that. Okay. So let me start again. Okay. I don't feel like what I'm about to share
is really representative of who I am or like my family's values or how we choose to live our life.
And it's just kind of something that happened to me.
And I was hesitant to share it
because people are going to have judgments, you know?
They're going to hear what I have to say
and be like, oh, you're that type of person.
And I just want to clear the air before I say what it is,
is that like this happened to me.
I did not attract this sort of chaos.
You did not seek it out.
I certainly did not seek it out.
So having said that,
last night I was home alone.
Ben was at the Nick game with Craig Conover.
And I...
Subtle flex.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I mean, I'm still going to be me, Jackie.
Yeah, they can't take that away from you.
And I'm laying in bed eating taco meat and watching TV.
And I like, you know, I'm very like hyper paranoid.
Like, you know, I'm very sensitive to like movement and light.
Like I always think there's a.
You're aware of your surroundings.
I always think there's like a murderer.
And like I saw something move in the corner of my eye, which happens to me all the time.
And I just like, you know, followed my line of sight and I saw a mouse there was a domestic
terrorist in my home a mouse a brown one and I froze freeze I think I don't even remember It's like I kind of blacked out I got up on the bed and like was screaming
I can't even imagine
Screaming and in that moment
Lauren Elizabeth decides to FaceTime me
I'm like not now bitch
I just froze
He disappeared under my radiator
Went on with his day
I ran downstairs
Like literally naked
I like wasn't wearing pants.
I couldn't go into the closet.
There could have been another mouse in there.
An army of mice.
And I, you know.
You fled the premises.
Of course I fled the premises.
My building was amazing.
Exterminator is there right now.
Was there a therapist on staff?
No, no.
Therapist?
I needed seriously a gun.
I did not sleep a wink.
I did not go back into my apartment until Ben got home.
Of course.
I was up all night, literally having night sweats.
I was in like a full fit of sweats.
I was so paranoid about the blanket touching the floor because then that would give the mouse like something to climb up onto and literally just
climb into my mouth at that point, you know? Like I, like nobody likes rodents. I, and everybody
has like an aversion to them, but my, my level is, is a hundred out of 10. This is the worst
possible thing that could have happened to me, especially because like yesterday,
and it's so funny how like God works, you know?
I posted yesterday on Patreon
my book club vlog,
and they're loving it.
People are obsessed with my vlog.
If you want to see my book club,
yada, yada, yada,
sneak peeks of my apartment.
And I was reading through the comments
and somebody was just like,
left such a sweet comment.
And I was like kind of,
I think I was literally reading it as I saw the
mouse it was a Claudia like you look so happy in your new home I'm so happy for you you've done
such a great job you look so at peace and I was like I am at peace mouse enter mouse
and it was not Mickey Mouse no and I happen to happened to have, like, the sighting of the mouse,
which I know he's not there anymore.
He, like, went on with his day into another part of my house,
but, like, the particular area where I found him,
like, it's an area I spend a lot of time in.
It's right next to my vanity where I podcast from home,
where I obviously do my makeup, do my hair.
Like, I spend a lot of time there every day.
It felt personal, for sure.
Yeah. But, you know, know the exterminator who is fabulous
fabulous Ralph I love this guy he came to it this morning so quick this was by the way eight o'clock
last night you know you can't it's very impressive to get you know eight o'clock mouse sighting
ten o'clock exterminator that's 14 hours that's pretty good and he was like you know I do this
building um and I was looking through my paperwork and he was like you know i do this building um and
i was looking through my paperwork and he's like you've never been on my list i'm like well i just
moved in here he's like oh so i guess the previous tenants didn't have an exterminator and it's like
it's free with the building i'm like what the fuck are you doing maybe they like a little mouse
in their day so he's giving my apartment the full workup i said i don't have any you know babies
around i don't have any pets around i want it all Fumigate the fuck out of this place, Ralph. Chernobyl.
Chernobyl. There should be a package plan at the exterminator. Yeah. Chernobyl. Yeah, no. And I
just want to say that I'm all about clean living. Like I'm very much getting on that page with you.
One thing that I will personally never allow cleanliness. I don't want a clean exterminator.
I don't want an organic exterminator.
I want a radioactive exterminator.
Yeah, especially when it's M-O-U-S-E.
Oh, well, that's the other thing.
It's like, you know, living in New York,
you're expected to deal with certain things.
And unfortunately, one of the more common things
is like water bugs, roaches, cockroaches. And in my my time I have seen roaches in my building in my apartment they're to me they're
more manageable yeah they are it's it's a shock and it's a horror it's shocking yeah and it's just
a part of people are going to be like wow you guys are being so nonchalant about it it really
it's just a part of the daily fabric of living in New York. Like, it is. No, but it's a shock and a horror that we can manage.
1000%.
Mouse.
Mouse.
A mouse has four legs.
A mouse is like Theo.
Like, a mouse can be domesticated.
Like, it's insane.
Yeah.
No, that is a different sort of threat.
A different sort of threat.
But with everything, we have to be grateful that it wasn't an R.I.T.
Yeah, it was very small.
And I just feel like that lady was lying when she said the rats don't run this town.
We do
No like I experienced first hand last night
He's gonna move out
Give up her apartment
Squatters rights
To the mouse
Jackie move out
I'm burning the building to the ground
I'm gonna pull the fire alarm
And get everybody out
Because I
I'm so upset
It's a perfect time for you to be leaving the state
Oh well let me just say how absolutely thrilled I am
That he's fumigating the fuck out of my apartment.
I want traps everywhere.
And I leave tomorrow
for three weeks.
I'm not checking the traps.
I'm going to have to have
the exterminator come back
hopefully while I'm gone.
Yeah.
I have the utmost confidence
in Ralph.
He was, like,
giving me really good vibes.
Yeah.
It's just, it's upsetting
that this had to happen to me.
And, of course,
like, how this now
reflects upon me.
People are like,
well, you're disgusting.
Do you leave crumbs?
Please, oh my God, have you met me? I'm the sweeper. I have the, like how this now reflects upon me. People are like, well, you're disgusting. Do you leave crumbs? Please, oh my God,
have you met me?
I'm the sweeper.
I have the cleanest apartment
this side of the East River.
Like, please.
But it reflects poorly on me.
Now people are like,
oh, that's the mouse girl.
That's the mouse girl.
Right, like writer girl?
No, mousy girl.
Yikes.
And I had to sleep
with the sound machine on so loud because if I hear that
like oh I will seriously jump off my balcony yeah for real for real but one more sleep until
you're coming here so and when was the last time your home has been exterminated the pest
guy was here yesterday good we're super on top of pests because there's a lot of threats
in Florida and it's different sorts different I mean there was that one night I saw two palm metals in my house and I didn't know yet
that palm metals were different from cockroaches. Still not great, but not a roach. And we fled in
the middle of the night to Olivia's house. Did you sleep there? Yeah. That's funny. Yeah. Cause
I saw how nice that you have that. But I saw two in one night. Like, I'm sorry, that's, that's too,
too many. Uh, and then also, then also you know there's you get like
geckos in the house and stuff like that but that's just like there's really no way around things like
that yeah I don't know a gecko to me is better than a mouse geckos feel like clean no I see them
I don't want to say all the time but it happens and I and I call Zach and then I move on with my
day I don't let it get me down gecko can't't get me down. Yeah. And like geckos, and I
know they say this about all animals. They're like, you know, the pests are more afraid of you
than you are of it. Well, the pest has obviously not met me because nobody's more afraid of
anything than I am of this pest. And I feel like geckos like actually are really afraid of you.
Like they're so like freaked. Yeah. They don't even move. They're like, how did I get here?
How do I get out? No, you're're like Is this gecko dead Or just frozen
Classic gecko
Classic gecko
So yes
I of course
I have my own struggles
And
You also do
You do have snakes
Oh yeah
I've heard some stories
I'm not saying
You have a snake
No but I've heard
From neighbors
Snake sightings
That's
That's worse than a mouse
I mean if I saw a snake
In my house like
What would you do?
Move
Yeah
They found us
They found you
We're not safe
Oh I do have like an update
On 5K gate

Forgot to tell you

my team I just spoke to them yesterday they're like listen we're in we're in touch with team
team Burt there is a 5k great you know what we could also do is listen to their show and find
out about these things I'm glad you brought that up because obviously it would clear up a lot of
confusion if we just like did the work um but one I'm not one for doing work especially after what i've just been through
with the mouse and two like it's so much more fun to keep guessing a hundred percent like please
and it's like are they listening to the toast
if not i don't know that you know it's very tit for tat around here we are still petty queens
no and like this is a place of business yeah
but i guess like if we're really hard up for wanting to know 5k or no 5k should we start
training we could just listen to their show because people are saying like no guys there

Our first story.
Today's stories are very sports Super Bowl heavy because that's what's news.
Of course.
And the WAGs are in Vegas.
Not that that's even a story, but just like Super Bowl is in motion.
No, for sure.
And I feel like actually we haven't even spoken about it that much
given the fact that like it's here.
It's imminent.
It's upon us.
It's Super Bowl Eve.
They've all been in Vegas for like days.
It's Erev Super Bowl.
It's Erev Super Bowl.
That's a cute title.
It is.
Erev means Eve in Hebrew. Yeah. So it's just like. So you would say Erev Christmas,. That's a cute title. It is. Erev means Eve in Hebrew.
Yeah.
So it's just like.
So you would say Erev Christmas, you know?
Yeah, exactly.
Except not in Hebrew because.
Why?
Jesus was a Jew.
Yeah.
So Jesus would say that it was Erev Christmas.
And, you know, the followers of Jesus, they fuck with the Old Testament.
So you actually might say Erev Christmas.
You might.
I guess Jesus would have said Erev my birthday.
Erev Yom Huladet.
That's what he would say.
Erev Yom Huladet is what Jesus would say.
HaYom Yom Huladet.
HaYom Yom Huladet.
Honestly, I feel like we don't talk enough Hebrew on this show.
But the better tune is Yom Huladet Sameach.
It's just so basic. I kind of love how like in israel
do you think stevie wetter ever recorded that version maybe
i love when people dance as if there's like an imaginary ball like
you know oh i'd never put i didn't know that that
that's how we were describing that's how i'm trying to describe it to you oh you mean this
like yeah like when they flip it up yeah that's called the whoa it's like whoa whoa where'd that
ball go there it is something like that yum who let it some air. Love that.
Dirty, go long.
Whoa.
That's gonna look sick on the YouTube.
Sick, sick in a clip maybe.
Maybe.
Anyways, Arab Super Bowl, the news is newsing.
Let's start with the big news of my day yesterday.
Something that really wowed me.
I don't know.
Brittany Mahomes.
Oh, yeah.
In Sports Illustrated.
Brittany Mahomes, mama of two,
made her Sports Illustrated swimsuit debut
as a member of the rookie class for 2024,
rocking a series of all red looks
in honor of her husband, Patrick Mahomes,
as Kansas City Chiefs.
And the first photos were released on Friday.
So photos were released, plus a little sizzle reel.
And damn, Brittany Mahomes.
I was shocked.
First of all, mom of two with that bod.
It ain't right.
It ain't right.
It's so right.
And what's so, oh, it's so right.
Sorry, I didn't mean any disrespect.
No, it's so right that it ain't right.
Right, right, right, right I I had so many thoughts first of all the body was just like it was insane
to me like you know I just was genuinely shocked by it also it made me giggle because I feel like
last week it was in the news a lot this picture of Patrick Mahomes went viral he like has a dad bod
and he's like one of the greatest athletes of our time and that's what's funny about football is like
they're not these like perfect chiseled.
They're big guys.
And a lot of them are a little overweight, too.
And they don't look like what you would think a professional athlete looks like.
So he was just in the news and he made like a whole joke about how his dad bods actually
like underneath his belly pouch.
Like it was funny.
And his wife, who's not an athlete, literally has one of the most insane bodies I've ever
seen in my life.
Yeah, that is funny in light of Patrick but Britney on her own I thought it was cute that she was in Sports
Illustrated because she is very of the moment and she's obviously major in the sports world
and so I was ready to you know look upon these photos and I was just shocked taken aback gore
they were beautiful I also like love the way that she was styled I thought her poses were very model-esque for just a woman going about glam glam she owned it I liked the looks I like the red I like the
entire thing I was so surprised by how much I was into this no I agree and like sports illustrated
is amazing and I feel like they do it like a lot of really iconic photo shoots but at some point
it feels a little monotonous it's just like on a beach blue ocean wet hair bikini like it's kind of a formula
at this point and it works to them so for someone to like look so different than the other photos
and really stand out like it was just from top to bottom styling glam everything just gorgeous
gorgeous this is an absolute slay for her I saw saw headlines like. Responding to backlash.
I don't even want to know what the backlash is.
Like I haven't seen anything.
And to me this is nothing but totally positive.
Agreed 1000%.
I do love though that like.
You know the.
Men who buy these magazines.
Are like the men who are like.
Pretty Rob sucks.
Like she's kind of like speaking their
language now and like in their magazine and it definitely feels like a big you know like fart
in their face when people are against britney mahomes she has a lot of haters is it more men
than women yes yes yes interesting it's the football people what and i feel like we talked
but what is their beef the beef started with the spraying of the champagne.
From the men?
The men were upset about spraying champagne?
Well, the video had went viral.
And then it was like, oh, look at her.
Like, she's in a suite and it's really cold outside.
And she's pouring cold water on people.
And like, it had come out people who were there being like, they asked.
They said, Britney, spray us, spray us.
Like, she did literally nothing wrong.
But that's just what offset people just being put off by some of her behaviors because she's very supportive.
She's not like a quiet woman, you know?
This is her plate.
This is her plate.
And she's, like, really proud of her husband and her.
And I think she definitely feels, and I would too, like, this is their success.
You know, they've been together since college.
They've been on this journey together.
Like, he's able to do what he does because she was, you know, put her,
she was a college athlete.
She put her things on the back burner.
She started the family.
Like they're a true partnership.
And so she takes equal excitement
and support in their winnings.
It's if he wins the Super Bowl,
they win the Super Bowl, you know?
Love that.
Yeah, no, it's like a real family.
Yeah.
And people just don't like it.
Haters gonna hate.
No, and I just love love love haters gonna hate hate hate hate hate who's uh real housewives tagline is that haters gonna
hate but i just love love love theresa yeah it's it's so dumb it could only be
theresa it's so bad like haters good because uh who is more hateful than Teresa Giudice?
Like, haters can hate, but I just love, love, love while I like physically assault people.
Like, please.
Factual.
No lies detected.
Oh, we didn't talk about it and I didn't choose it as a story.
But people are gagged over this photo of Jen Shah and Theranos being spotted in prison.
Yeah.
People are gagged.
Oh.
They're gooped and gagged.
I saw it.
They're gooped and gagged.
I never watched any Theranos content.
Like I know she like stole blood or whatever.
But I.
Stole or stole did you say?
I don't know.
Because she kind of did both.
I said stole.
She kind of did both. I don't really know her journey and? I don't know. Because she kind of did both. I said stole. She kind of did both.
I don't really know her journey and like I don't care to.
So like she doesn't do it for me.
She doesn't do it for me.
I know her journey.
I'm surprised these two get along.
I feel like the commonality must be the fame factor
because on a personality level,
I feel like they would hate each other.
No, for sure.
Like one is so serious.
So serious. And one is so serious. So serious.
Like dead serious.
And one is so not.
Dead.
She's bloody serious.
She's bloody, bloody serious.
And Jen, not so serious.
Right, right.
But I guess it must be like nice to have someone in prison
who can relate on a very different but small level.
Like why, you know, Jen just can't talk to just any inmate.
Yeah, and they can like team up when the paparazzi come.
They could be like, you know, we got each other.
I've got someone to lean on.
I'm not going through this alone.
I did feel like it was crazy to get like paparazzi pics from prison.
I feel like isn't prison of all places supposed to be secure?
Yeah, and do they just like wait all day?
For recreational time?
Or does Jen, maybe she uses her phone call to call the pap,
say I'll be outside in the yard with Theranos, come through 11 a.m.
Actually, that's not a bad call.
It's like Sharif is working with like a publicist and finding her schedule.
That's not a bad call.
She probably made money from that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
She probably sold the photo.
Yeah, from inside. Love. Yeah never stops hustling never stops hustling our next story a bit
of super bowl eve era of news travis kelsey jokes about how much money he's spending to have family
friends at super bowl 2024 so no one is immune to the pricey cost of this super bowl not even
the players tra Travis said on
the New Heights podcast I'm not really doing much different other than just counting how much money
I'm spending on this damn Super Bowl for family and friends to come just making sure I'm on top
of those finances and losing all this money it's really crazy I can only imagine how much he's
spent he's probably one of the players spending the most amount of money yeah the cost of the
Super Bowl and its VIP suites has been a popular topic over the last few weeks as family members of players
have been voicing how expensive
this year's game is going to be.
Now, we attribute,
like all Super Bowls are expensive.
They're always like setting new records,
but this is obviously different.
We attribute that to tailored, correct?
I personally attribute it to Vegas
because who doesn't want to go
to the Super Bowl in Vegas,
especially for people in LA,
like it's a 45 minute flight.
There's so much to do in Vegas.
It's a very exciting place to have a Super Bowl.
And it is a high profile game.
But I think even if it was debt versus Chiefs or debt versus 49ers, it would be very much.
I don't think it would be the same I think it would still be
extremely pricey maybe like I think so too a little bit smaller but still massive yeah um
so a lot is coming out about Travis first of all the finances I feel like he shared this because
it's like funny but also like he wanted people to know like he's taking care of everything because
the question is like she's literally a billionaire and he does extremely well and I feel like this year's probably
made he made more money in brand deals than he did from his football contract and he has a great
football contract like this is a person who's deeply wealthy and can afford it but his girlfriend
is probably 20 times wealthier than him maybe more more because his net worth is uh 30 million
oh so she's do the math for me.
How many times?
30?
30.
Yeah, 30 times richer than her.
My guess wasn't bad, 20.
So like, you know, but then, you know,
traditional queen, chivalry, it's his game.
Like, there's so many things.
So I really appreciate him just kind of owning the fact,
like, yes, I am paying for this. Well, has to get the jet she has to get the jet but he
also is responsible for his family yeah so he was spending it anyway paying for them and so
then it makes sense just to like do a suite and have Taylor not pay but the suites were going for how much? Between one and two and a half million dollars.
That is wild. And for like a regular football game if you wanted to rent a suite for like x
amount of people concert it's about 20 grand. Yeah. So millions is crazy. It's insane but also
Allegiant Stadium which is the brand new stadium in Vegas, is like this top of the line.
It has like these crazy suites.
It's like a nightclub.
It's really one of like the coolest stadiums in the country.
So it's already going to have a premium because of that.
And it's the Super Bowl.
It's like a million things.
But $2.5 million is really crazy.
Olivia Colpo just made news because her mother-in-law,
Christian McCaffrey's mom, went on a podcast and was like,
we literally can't afford a suite.
Christian can't afford a suite.
Even though Christian has a $500 million contract.
Whatever.
And then Olivia Colbert posted on Instagram, like, don't worry, mom.
I got you.
Yeah, with a brand.
I think she got-
It was with a brand.
So a lot of people missed that because people are media illiterate.
And it's really frustrating to have conversations with people.
Because people are like, this is so insensitive, Olivia.
People can't pay their bills.
And it's like, it was literally a partnership
because she tagged this like agency
teasing some sort of thing to come.
So like, please shut up.
Yeah, it was definitely gifted.
And now she can get herself and Lisa in the suite.
Also Donna Kelsey had said
she was probably watching in the stands
due to the prices.
But I think everyone will be in a suite
and Travis will pick up the bill.
But I think that's an investment in his future no no and when I think about how much money Travis Kelsey has made
supplementary to his football salary in the last year due to this fame it's on I mean the podcast
just the podcast alone it's the podcast alone yeah they do one episode a week they have like
six ads every week. Millions.
It's number one all week long.
Like millions of downloads.
And he's just splitting it with his brother.
I know the numbers.
That's a lot of money on its own.
Face of Experian.
Face of State Farm.
He had that $60 million Pfizer contract.
He's fine.
State Farm.
Did I say that?
Yeah, you said State Farm.
I think his Pfizer contract was $20 million.
How could it be 60 when he's worth 30? think it was yeah maybe 20 okay whatever you know what I
mean and I do feel like his net worth is probably needs to be rejiggered after this year maybe but
I also people are saying you say rejiggered a lot too I didn't feel that way wait wait I kind of do
I kind of like that call but it hasn't reached the summit yet for me.
No, it hasn't reached the summit, but definitely something.
I don't know if you noticed today when I was making my speech about the mouse,
I said it's not representative of who I am.
I almost said emblematic, but I came up with a new word.
Very good.
So source.com.
Thank you so much.
Also, this is weird.
Travis earns about $14 million from the NFL.
So not only did he get paid more for the Pfizer ad,
which we know is 20 million.
I don't even know how much he makes from other ads,
but his NFL contract is around 14 million.
That feels kind of low considering he's always helping them get to the Super Bowl.
Yeah.
No, I mean, it's not low because it's a part of a bigger contract.
It's not like one $14 million.
I think he signed like a $50 million contract like three years ago I don't know what's his let me look it up hold on
like what is his big ass contract I love that this stuff is public like that's so interesting
to me like and by the way when I just googled it said his net worth was 40 so it's already changing
changing by the yeah he signed a five-year $50 million with a $10 million signing bonus,
$20 million guaranteed.
It's a good deal.
So-
For a tight end, by the way.
Like he's not a quarterback.
$50 million over five years.
10 million plus bonuses.
Okay, so he makes 14 million probably in a year.
I don't know.
He's using one-fourteenth of his pay
to spend on a suite. That's not like great financial- It's his one okay so his of his pay to spend on the suite that's not like
great financial it's not one fourteenth of his pay when you think about all of his other revenue
streams and Pfizer 20 million and he Pfizer State Farm Experian Subway podcast okay but like I don't
know honestly I wouldn't pays like Pfizer pays I think they do I think think Pfizer, State Farm, Subway, and what was the other one I said?
Experian are all paying him at least eight figures.
Okay.
But also, the $14 million from the NFL is in one year.
Those ad campaigns is probably a year's long campaign.
Some of them seem new.
That's what I'm saying like i haven't
seen him being the face of experience before and it's like they tapped him because he's hot right
now or maybe he like was like okay experience about two million dollar campaign but i could
use it to pay for the suite right but he also just buy that new house too six million yeah
anyways that's another thing Hitler ruined.
The number six million.
Ooh.
You know?
I didn't even think of that.
I did.
And it's like, just add it to the list.
He ruined the number nine, of course.
Nine!
But he also ruined the number six million.
If I had a house that was worth six million dollars,
I would put it at 599 because...
Well, you would anyway because that's just better business yeah I just I like I wouldn't I would
not put my house in the six million it's crazy how like that's still a business practice is to
mark something at like 199 instead of 200 like that it's still up and makes enough that's what
I was saying people like aren't literate you know that makes enough of a difference. That's what I was saying. People like aren't literate, you know?
And that it makes enough of a difference
that like we're still doing it.
Yeah, no, it must be like an actually
effective marketing technique.
Patreon is only $7.99.
Right.
And I just want to say like Patreon being $7.99
in this economy, it's free.
It's a steal.
What can you get for under $8?
I don't know.
I just got a coffee this morning.
How much was it?
Oh, she's too rich to remember.
Oh, okay.
But I guess I just got the coffee.
Damn, I wish I had clocked it.
I was just excited to be out getting coffee.
That is exciting.
Homemade, free.
But in your plastic cup, you just want to kill the sea turtles?
No, I needed ice.
We don't have an ice machine at the studio.
So from the coffee shop downstairs, I get a cup of ice.
They must love me there.
I spend no money and I come and take ice every morning.
That's nice.
Ice.
So while, yes, I am killing multiple animals with my cup and you know I should
be murdered because of it I do feel like I'm also like helping by not contributing to consumerism
you know so it balances out okay but you're kind of robbing a small business
it's not small let's say that me you're kind of robbing a medium-sized business
I am stealing from a business that I believe was invested in
by BlackRock, okay?
I read that somewhere.
This big chain of coffee shops
in New York that like popped up.
Somebody said it's like a BlackRock.
Interesting.
Yeah, I feel good about it.
Thanks BlackRock for my coffee.
But I also saw that big chain,
like they had to close
a number of locations.
Do you think it was because
of the IEs that you took?
Maybe it's because BlackRock
was too busy buying like
homes in America. Every home in America. What is that because of the ice that you took? Maybe it's because BlackRock was too busy buying like homes in America.
Every home in America.
What is that by the way?
I fell into that conspiracy theory.
BlackRock is buying like
and not like mansions
like regular like
single family homes
that like were normal
and they're like gouging up
the prices or something.
Yeah.
Sick.
Sick.
Sick.
And here I am with my
with my rental
with my
with my
Travis Kelsey.
Money.
He's paying for this studio.
What is it called?
The Suite.
He's also just making a lot of waves because he has been like really...
And he's been such a good sport about it.
But like the way people have been acting, like sports journalists should seriously,
they need to be spoken to some of the questions that he has been asked.
And I've, it's been coming from female reporters and male reporters.
Like I can't even just blame one particular group for being cringe.
Like Travis, finish the lyric.
Yikes.
In like an official Super Bowl press conference.
Did you see the reporter who asked Brock Purdy if he saw this online, I don't even know what you call it, online call that he looks like Lee Harvey Oswald.
I did.
This reporter like needs to get off of TikTok.
Like what kind of,
and Black Party was like,
no, I didn't see it.
No, he was like,
what do you think about the comparison?
He's like, literally he's a murderer.
No, and it's like,
oh, I never heard that before.
Like, great question, thanks.
Yeah, no, people are acting,
like they've forgotten how to act. the questions that uh Travis has had to field and he's been really he
hasn't made a stink about a single one of them because he doesn't I feel like it's really
intentional I think he doesn't mind I think he's like excited to be like you know popular but also
like he doesn't want to come off as like I want to be known for me not Taylor because that's like
something like a weak man would do yeah and I think also when they've made the decision to be so public and to go on the field like you are saying
okay this is what a public relationship entails it's not like he's been super private so it opens
the door for people to ask questions which I think is fair yeah but people have really taken
yeah they have taken they've crossed the line but also the questions are dumb yeah like ask a good
question ask a good question. Ask a good question.
Oh, somebody asking me like,
who do you think is going to get a ring first,
Taylor or the 49ers?
Could you die?
Like, I'm sorry, that's really insane.
Yeah, that's really insane.
That was like in the beginning
when they first started going public
and he was being asked questions during a press conference.
Someone was like, Travis, are you in love?
Like, okay, there's a line.
Please, like, sure, ask your questions, have fun with it.
But like, my God, behave.
The state of journalism.
These reporters, they need to be spoken to.
Spanked.
Spanked.
Yeah, they need to be reprimanded.
Deeply.
What would you ask Travis
if you wanted to get like a tailored question in there?
Oh, wow.
You know what I would ask if I wanted to get like taylor music question in there
maybe i'm just as dumb as the reporters but i'd be like are there any taylor songs that you listen
to to like psych yourself out for game day by the way i love that and if he and then i would also
come with a list of suggestions ready for it getaway car like i would say if you don't like
here's what you should be listening to on the bus. Right. That's an excellent question.
Say, hey, Travis, I made you a playlist.
Okay, but also like obviously up until this point,
I don't think Travis was like listening to, you know,
all of Taylor's albums on repeat like as a fan.
No, it shouldn't be.
He wasn't her target demo.
Now he's obviously like catching up and stuff.
But do you think he knows a lot of her music?
No, I think he knows like.
He's been to two Eras tours. I think he knows Love lot of her music no I think he's been to two eras tours I think he
knows love story shake it off blank space 22 I knew you were trouble and I think that's what
he should know I think now he goes to tours he hears nice pretty music I don't think he should
look into it too much no I think he will know dead poet society yeah like now moving forward I always thought that was interesting when um
everyone was freaking out about Kelsey Ballerini and what's his name Chase Stokes and all these
this video footage was coming out of him at concerts like he almost immediately like knew
a lot of the words and people were like that's so cute and it is really cute but like how do
you get there unless he was a fan before but at that point they had been together for a
while so that's like a lot of going to her shows and hearing the same yeah and he's gonna go to a
lot of shows yeah that's okay I just I find that interesting like at what point in a relationship
with a singer do you start to like memorize lyrics yeah you didn't already and I also wonder about
being a singer do you listen to your own music like say you're pink like do you listen to your own music at the gym like the
rest of us no no you don't get to enjoy that song the way that we do no no sad what does Adele listen
to when she's sad and as an artist myself I can tell you I don't listen or work out to my own
music it's really it's challenging I it sucks for sure what I did find interesting and I always
think about when Taylor Swift goes to an award ceremony and she's always the first person to stand up and dance during a performance she's
like a girly who knows lyrics yeah and I think it's interesting I'm like like does she make
playlists like and she like knew vampire Olivia Rodrigo and she was like mouthing the words and
I'm like how do you know the song no how does she have all this time to make all this music and
listen to all this music right and it's like when you make music for a living like are you just get home and you're like, oh, I can't look at another music, you know?
Yeah.
It's like us being podcasters, like we really don't listen to podcasts.
No.
And I think like baristas, like they get home and they're like, I can't make another cup of coffee.
Like you just like kind of expel what you do for work.
Yeah.
But I think music, some people believe in.
Stop.
Shut your mouth.
I just think.
I told you that in confidence. I just think that the way that some people believe in music shut your mouth i just think i told you that in confidence i just think that
the way that some people believe in me jackie i'm not about to say what you think i'm gonna say okay
i think the way that some people believe in music it's like bigger than a cup of coffee
yes yes yes but at the end of the day like no matter what you do for a living like work is work
even if you love it and have the best job. Not for an artist. Not for a true artist.
That's the point of the artist tree.
Oh, you know, I need to check on Ben.
Artist tree pain.
He didn't text me.
You need to check on what?
Ben and the exterminator.
Oh, they're going out for coffee?
I hope so.
Like, I want to be his favorite client. Yeah, yeah.
Like, if he comes over just to chat and spray.
That's like, people are like, teacher's pet. Like, no, exterminator's pet. Like, I'm going to bring his favorite client. Yeah, yeah. He comes over just to chat and spray. That's like, people are like, teacher's pet.
Like, no, exterminator's pet.
Like, I'm going to bring you an apple.
You don't want there to be a pet to talk about.
Right.
Okay.
Are you ready for our next story?
What number?
Three.
Oh, God, yeah.
Prince Harry makes a surprise appearance at the NFL Honors
after a quick trip to see his cancer-stricken father.
Prince Harry made a surprise appearance at the NFL Honors after a quick trip to see his cancer-stricken father. Prince Harry made a surprise appearance at the NFL Honors event last night following his brief shift to London.
He presented Cameron Hayward with the 2023 Walter Payton Man of the Year Award,
the highest honor of the night during the ceremony in Las Vegas.
He said, all you guys do on and off the field is truly remarkable.
You are role models for millions in the way you carry yourselves and in the way you give back.
He said that Hayward is a player
who goes above and beyond.
Noted that his extraordinary commitment
to helping others
is a reflection of his own story.
Now, I love when Harry and Meghan
decide to step out
and how I can analyze what it means.
And so I don't want to be ungrateful,
but I don't understand
why Harry was at the NFL honors.
Football is not even a sport
that he is familiar with.
First of all,
it's like the most American sport on the planet to,
he just got back from London.
Oh,
and you know what?
I have fallen into a tick tock rabbit hole that I'd like to share.
Now this begs the question.
Did he run home after 24 hours to hope to give this award?
Like,
no,
my God,
good question.
There was drama that Charles kicked him out,
but he was like,
I'm sorry,
father.
I have a big American award to present.
I gotta jet.
I'm sorry, Father.
So there, I fell into a TikTok conspiracy theory.
Like a lot of people think that he's on his deathbed, King Charles.
Like that this is the end.
I'm going to play this TikTok for you.
And the person actually made like a good, person's name is Adam.
Okay.
Buckingham Palace does not release statements
about the health of the royal family members
until it 100% absolutely has to.
Prince Harry does not fly back to the UK to visit his family unless he absolutely has to.
If you pay proper attention to the royal family, it's never in what they say.
It's what they do.
Follow their actions if you want the truth.
The United Kingdom will be coordinating a new king this year what i need you to understand in this moment is that
buckingham palace is currently communicating to the public without saying it there will be a new
king this year buckingham palace does not release what do you think about that time will tell like
yeah sure maybe maybe not in 50 50 it's so true but if harry ran home for this award
like loser energy that's not what i'm thinking that he did i just want to say like i think him
being here is like actually a bad look because there's really no it's a mismatch anyway i think
in terms of like all the places he could go like he would be better off at like a film award like
it it's not a match it's not it's not
American like it really it's not a good match why would the NFL honors have him anyway by the way
the NFL honors would have him because it's just great press for their awards like that's fabulous
but like it's the biggest award of the night there are so many people in sports who are so
like respected yeah nobody in this room Michael Jordan cares about. Nobody in this room really cares about him.
No, no, this room doesn't care about him.
That's true.
Yeah.
It's a miss for him.
I think, yeah, it's a miss for both parties,
but it makes me wonder,
is he going to go to the Super Bowl
like we said he should?
Right, because he is in Vegas.
Oh, and because he clearly knows about football.
But he's in Vegas? They're going because he clearly like knows about football. But he's in Vegas.
They're going to the Super Bowl tourney.
I mean, NFL honors was last night.
I didn't know that.
I wish I knew.
I think I would have watched.
By the way,
I literally had the same exact reaction
when I saw like news this morning.
Like damn.
Someone should have told me.
Like what channel is that on?
Like ESPN?
I didn't even channel surf last night.
And you know,
I feel like there was a few years ago
where Kelly hosted the NFL honors or it was the ESPYs I get those two awards confused
so similar and I think I thought up until right now that last night was like that the one
no like yeah no NFL honors is just football he should have told me yeah agreed 1000% like that
should be on your radar yeah and when I was going out to get a snack I should have seen it on the living room. His television. Yeah. Well and he wasn't watching
that. He was watching some drama. I'm gonna ask him about that. I feel like there should have been
like more commercials for it. Yeah maybe an ad on the toast and then we would have known about it.
Right maybe if ESPN had a business that they cared about they would know what it's like but they
don't. But they don't. So if anything else of note happened at the NFL honors, we missed it.
Yeah, we did. Are you ready for our next story? That is brought to you by Taylor Firms.
Claudia, we need to talk about Taylor Firms. The name on everybody's lips.
Ben ate my last Taylor Farm salad last night and we actually got into a fight.
He could be with Elizabeth Arnos and Jen Shon, Joe.
Their chopped salad kits deliver the freshest, best-tasting salads to eat at home or on the go across North America.
Taylor Farms is a family-owned company on a mission to create healthy lives through fresh, delicious food.
Their chopped salad kits are five boring in every bag with over 30 flavors.
Each base is a unique blend of greens, veggies, created to perfectly complement
the toppings and dressings to deliver the best tasting flavor towards salad kits. I just want
to say like salads in a bag get a bad rap and rightfully so. Some of the stuff you pick up at
the grocery store, brown. Taylor Farms is different. Let me tell you why. Perfectly packaged,
perfectly sealed, perfectly fresh, but most importantly to me, perfectly chopped. I love
a salad that's so teeny
tiny shredded to perfection and Taylor Farms is always doing the most with their chopping which
I feel like is about most importance and their flavors are so good obviously I mostly stock up
on the Caesar ones because I'll like make chicken throw it in or just use it as like a side for a
dinner party or something it's so good the citrus flavors they have such good flavors it's such a
good meal it's such a good snack it's such a good meal. It's such a good snack.
It's such a good thing to just have in your house.
Also, if you're having people over for dinner,
it's like such an easy way to make a salad.
And because all the ingredients come pre-packaged,
you can customize it.
Like if one day you want croutons and one day you don't,
like you can just do what you want.
You can do your thing.
Yeah, last night I added some hearts of palm
to my Caesar kit.
Yum, yum.

Our next story, little game news.
Actually, I think all five stories
have a bit of a sports theme,
which I think is great as it is our Super Bowl.
It is our Super Bowl.
Cascade will replace Tiesto at the Super Bowl
as the big game's first ever official DJ.
So we had spoken about how Tiesto was supposed to be
the DJ for the Super Bowl,
which is so Vegas and so Tiesto.
And like during the game, question mark?
I think we were gonna-
What does that mean?
We were gonna see, you know.
I'm sure he would be doing it for the fans,
but I'm sure there would be some TV component
and he was the Super Bowl DJ
How fun is that
But he had to step back due to a family emergency
He said me and my team have been preparing
Something truly special for months
But a personal family emergency is forcing me
To return home Sunday morning
It was a tough decision to miss the game
But family always comes first
Thank you to the NFL
Etc etc
Well the good thing is like you you know, they're in Vegas.
You can't fart without hitting three DJs and big ones too.
So Cascade, great.
Huge.
That's great.
Hope everything's okay with Tiesto.
Yeah, same for me.
Cascade will be great.
I do, now I'm like, wait, what did Tiesto have planned?
Sounded exciting.
No, now I'm like intrigued.
Like what the fuck does being the DJ of that Super Bowl entail? That's what I'm curious about. I think it would have been really cool. And now I'm like intrigued. Like what the fuck does being the DJ of that Super Bowl entail?
That's what I'm curious about.
I think it would have been really cool.
And now I'm like.
Or is it a job that's just like in name only, you know?
Not for, I don't think Tiesto takes in name only jobs.
My question is, is it a job that's for in stadium only?
Do the people at home get to enjoy it?
Yeah, there are a lot of things about the Super Bowl.
Jackie and I have been that
are really have we were there made they're they're either made for TV or made for the stadium the
Super Bowl halftime show like when we went it was Justin Timberlake right yeah we didn't even hear
him like it was so it wasn't playing on the screens it's truly made for TV like nobody is
watching it like a concert it's not like that at all um and that was disappointing
for sure yeah because like you would say like let's say Taylor was going to the Super Bowl
I'd be like okay I'm gonna go to a Taylor Swift concert you're literally not the microphone's like
not even on no and it depends which way they're facing but they do oh yeah we had his back 360
but I just felt like everything was happening on the other side for Justin Timberlake like
selfie kid wasn't sitting near us we had totally like back view of Justin Timberlake. Like Selfie Kid wasn't sitting near us.
We had totally like back view of Justin Timberlake and I couldn't have been more thrilled about it.
Fuck him.
Yeah.
Like of all the performers we had to miss,
like I would have been okay with that.
Totally fine.
But I wonder if the Super Bowl DJ is like an in-stadium thing.
Because also then you deal with like music licensing on TV.
It's like a whole thing.
But they have every, they play music all day long.
Yeah.
We'll see.
I think it's going to be really exciting. I think Cascade will rise to the challenge, but I am bummed.
Like now I'm like, what did Tiesto have planned?
And does Cascade have enough time to plan something
of a similar elk?
Tiesto's like really major.
Yes, Turdy.
Like when you just think about
like global artists, like
who could sell out stadiums in, like, Germany.
Like, we always think, like, Taylor, Luke, Morgan Wallen.
Literally, like, these DJs are so crazy rich, like, globally.
It's insane.
Yeah.
Like, those Tomorrowland audiences are hundreds of thousands of people.
Yeah.
It's just interesting.
It's, like, such a subculture that we're so not tuned into.
Not even sub.
Right. It's just a culture.
Yeah.
Massive.
Massy block of.
Exactly.
Our fifth and final story is a little halftime news
because Usher is giving-
The whole show is-
The whole show.
Usher's giving some teasers about his halftime show,
saying it would be foolish to perform at the Super Bowl show
without inviting Lil Jon and Ludacris on stage because he said it would be foolish not to perform his song yeah
also ludacris and lil john are wait what's the song yeah i get confused with the chris brown one
how does it go
dun dun dun let me just play that i'm just being a grandma right now I feel like there's like Four songs named yeah
Yeah I agree
Oh
Oh yeah
Yeah
Jackie copyright
Turn it off
Turn it off
I put it away from my microphone
And closer to you
Yeah you keep doing that
Where you think like
You'll do something away
From your microphone
Claudia it was the one time
And obviously I didn't push my mic
I do that all the time
I move my microphone
And I sneeze over here
And it's always fine
I think the one time That I was blowing my nose During quints Sorry to the squints I didn't push my mic I do that all the time I move my microphone I sneeze over here and it's always fine I think the one time that I was blowing my nose during quince sorry to this quince I didn't
move the microphone far enough Jackie let's talk about you blowing your nose during the quince ad
um how many people texted me like what's going on like literally okay a bomb was going off first of
all I'm sorry I should have moved my microphone or muted it I'm really sorry the point number two
I'm so glad you guys don't skip through the ads so true rach parcell was like what's going on rach parcell listens to our ads like that
is a we're influencing the influencers i think every once in a while we need to do something
crazy during the ads just to make sure people are still here okay on monday i'll like rip ass during
something i it didn't need to be as soon as Monday. I would say like every, maybe like quarterly, an ad check-in.
Oh, okay.
So not tomorrow.
No, no, no.
Not tomorrow.
I just did my crazy quince blow.
The CQB.
Yeah.
Okay, wait.
Really quickly, back to Usher.
I feel like it's very rare for a Super Bowl performer to ever confirm prior to the show
like who he's bringing out. But I also feel like it means he's bringing out everyone if he's if he's teasing these two
I think Justin Bieber's coming I kind of agree and I kind of feel like I normally would have said oh
I wish he like shared it didn't didn't I wish he waited to share and like surprised us all
but like kind of now feeling like knowing what's coming in the anticipation I'm actually more excited i feel like it actually is going to be a 10 out of 10 performance i think it's going
to be just a celebration a celebration as yeah friday episodes are here at the show but i also
sometimes when someone's performing the whole time i'm like i'm waiting for this song are they
going to bring someone out like it's the anticipation you can't enjoy it so much i feel
like that happened with rihanna everyone's like oh it's all of the lights is
Kanye you know and yeah if we know a little bit okay people are coming great we're not so like
worried about that suspenseful it's actually so true it kind of takes away from the performance
because you're just then you're gonna end up like always feeling let down yeah unless but for Rihanna
I wanted her to not bring anyone out say I think it would have
taken away from her to bring someone out I don't feel that way about Usher because I just I feel
like his songs like the more the merrier sort of thing no and with Usher like so much of his career
and his success are built on collaborations whereas Rihanna's that's really not the case
no but so many of her hits are are collabs actually yeah but like but just coincidentally like no I can't
explain it I can't no I agree with you on a metaphysical level but on a literal level
it's not the case it's different it's just different I agree yeah you know it doesn't
require explanation I'm so excited for the Super Bowl this weekend for the halftime performer for
the pre-show performance for the game for the Taylor you know Kim Kardashian's probably going
to be there because like Skims is like doing a thing with usher like there's just a
lot that's going to be going on and i feel like i'm it's just going to be a great week weekend to
be on my phone yes but also off your phone because we're going to be together so it's a little bit
of on off it's a little bit of on off and what's so exciting is that the show is far from over well
not far from over that's like kind of dramatic yeah that is but we still have more there's more
we still have more our ween more. We still have more.
Our weenie of the week
and our queenie of the week
crowning has officially commenced.
Our weekly segment
where Jackie and I
just take a look
back at the week
at a glance
and give out two awards.
One to the queenie of the week
and one to the weenie of the week.
Two people who exhibited
either queenie-like values
or weenie-like values.
100%.
How do you want to start?
Let's start with queenie.
Get the good one out of the way.
My queenie of the week is miley cyrus for me miley she won the grammys in a literal sense but her energy
she shined so bright no i love she she was awe inspiring i've spent the week listening to her
music just entering into another miley appreciation era this is one of
many in my lifetime and she is just my absolute queen I hope she had the best week of her life
and queenie vibes only from her I love that mine is also Grammys related different but it is Tracy
Chapman a queen because you know what I've been seeing on TikTok, like, her performance has just gone so viral.
And, of course, like, the Luke of it all brings me so much joy.
I love, like, Luke getting his flowers from people who aren't in country.
But Tracy Chapman is just this, like, deeply talented, deeply non-thirsty person
who I feel like they had to, like, pull teeth to get to even show up at the Grammys.
And, like, I think it brought people so much joy.
That song means so much to so many people.
And I've just been seeing like all these people
talking about the song and like what it means to them
and, you know, reminding them of their families.
And I feel like it was just this really rare,
wholesome moment for the culture
where like two different genres came together.
And we need more moments like that, unification.
And I just, I loved it.
And Tracy Chapman is responsible for it.
Love.
Love.
Now I do think the weenie of the week, there's only one.
Oh, okay.
Who's yours?
I know that it's yours, too.
I don't think so.
Annie Lennox.
Oh, I scratched mine.
Yes.
My weenie of the week was going to be us for how we've been acting with the 5K.
Like, we've been, like, really weenie, and we need to stop.
Stop.
But the thing is, we're so cute.
I know. And, like, the clips are going viral so honestly i take it back and like we're so like i know it's you say we're desperate and thirsty i think we're really earnest
like we just we just want to be involved and we're sweet and included and exercise meet new
people support support small get outside get some fresh air support some men who could really use a Guys, meet new people. It's so true. Support smaller podcasts. Get outside.
Get some fresh air.
Support some men who could really use a leg up.
I love that.
By the way, you're 100% right.
And my God, yes, Annie Lennox is the weenie of the week.
I don't know how I missed that.
Annie Lennox.
Sorry, not Annie Lennox is the weenie of the week.
Annie Lennox is the weenie of the week.
I hate Annie Lennox is the weenie of the week. I hate Annie Lennox.
And once again, thank you for reminding me of my new life's mission,
which is to make fun of Annie Lennox whenever possible.
Every chance we get.
Which weenie of the week is that?
And Howard Stern actually did a segment similar to weenie of the week
on his show about Annie Lennox.
And I loved it.
So thank you, Howard, for championing my cause. Facts were spoken. How about artists for the release of the week on his show about analytics and i loved it so thank you howard for championing my
cause facts were spoken how about artists for the release of release of the hostages
say that first yeah then let's talk peace no everyone wants peace what are we animals
no but saying ceasefire to a group of barbarians who have said time after time we don't want to
stop being barbarians we We want to kill Jews.
So saying ceasefire is just saying the civilized people,
the Jews, the Israelis, need to ceasefire and stop defending themselves.
Shut the fuck up, you dumb, ugly bitch.
And then die.
Right.
Because the other side will not cease firing,
and they've made that known time and time again.
So if you are confused by artists for ceasefire,
it's trash, that's why.
Artists for ceasefire sounds like artists who are deaf because they're not listening no and it's like okay artists
what about the hostages in that situation so we ceasefire and then the hundred women teenagers men
like grandparents who are just sitting there what about them and they're not just sitting there
they're being abused on every they're being raped emotionally physically verbally assaulted please
shut the fuck up shut the fuck up and you should i would say shut the fuck up and sing but like on every level. They're being raped emotionally, physically, verbally assaulted. Please,
shut the fuck up and eat my ass.
Shut the fuck up.
And I would say
shut the fuck up and sing
but like don't even do that.
No,
because you weren't good
at that either.
No,
I'm sorry.
I didn't mean shut the fuck up.
I meant,
shut the fuck up.
It's like a big yawn.
Yeah.
And honestly,
I don't even remember
like how she actually sounded
because I've dramatized it
so much in my head
and it's funnier in my head.
For sure.
Love.
So that's Queenie and Meanie of the Week truly turning into one of the highlights of my week.
I'm so glad we started doing that.
Yeah.
