Good morning Westeros! Welcome to the number one morning show in all of the Seven Kingdoms. It is the toast. I am your co-host, Daemon Targaryen. Good morrow, brother. Good morrow, brother. I am your co-host, Viserys the Peaceful. What an honor to be sitting down with the king on my number one morning show, The Toast. Of course, Damon, making it himself. We built it together as brothers.

You were a little busy. I cannot do this accent. You were a little busy losing all your fingers to be building an empire like I am. Don't be jealous because I'm a mogul and you're simply a king. You were a little busy

murdering your wife, taking on a terrible whore and engaging in incest to be running a business. Brother, engaging in incest yes to be running a business brother that's why you'll never be a truly great king incest is best we all know that we all and that's why you'll never be a truly great brother fair point welcome guys to toaster weed in 2022 spooky jackie and i are here Not as Jackson Claude Jackson Claude Actually been working so hard

They took the day off They took the day off And our good friends Damon and Viserys Targaryen Decided to join us today For Toast to Ween If you watch House of the Dragon

Then you know And if you don't want to Watch House of the Dragon Now would be a great time to start Now would be a great time to start And if you've been listening To all our recaps This whole time

Like you know I'm Viserys the king The peaceful Like not a great man But but not a bad one. And then we have Damon jury still out. Troublemaker, widow's peak. Lover of nieces. And that's a lover.

That's appropriate, because one thing here at the toast is like we really value aunts and uncles. The Shrice brethren are our dragons and they are eating their wings. Oh, shit. They have resorted to eating their wings. They've been in their dragon costumes for like an hour now yeah but first everyone has to see the dragons of westeros oh my god theo's literally chewing on his wing he's got a clipped wing he's a wily dragon this is thorax and anthrax this is thorax and briseax thorax and briseax

these wings are actually really cute costume ideas, but like the boys are hating them. It's like all hour they've been waiting for us to take them off, and now they know if they start chewing them, we'll have to take them off. We also, we did a photo shoot with them this morning, so like they've done their due diligence, and we can set them free.

Okay, we're setting free the dragons. They're truly the wind beneath my wings. There you go, Theo. There you go, Bryce. Prosper. These are really cute, though. Yeah, they're like pretty wind beneath my wings. There you go, Theo. There you go, Bryce. Prosper. These are really cute, though. Yeah, they're like pretty chic. Excuse me, Theo.

Theo's like, no, put them back on. I like to. Theo, stop. You'll eat it. Oh, God. Theo clipped a wing. You'll eat it and you'll like it. So good morning, everyone. Hope everyone had an absolutely splendid Halloween weekend.

Seven blessings to us all. Seven blessings throughout us all. Seven blessings throughout the seven kingdoms. I was slightly dreading this episode because for some reason, whenever I talk in a British accent, I immediately become Russian and Jamaican. And that's not the plan, you know? No, it's not the plan. And whenever I talk in British accent, I immediately become brava. you immediately become like very rowdy where's granja harris granja harris

um yeah whenever i dress in opposite sex like all that something takes over something takes over it's like ben being aina yeah ben dressed as aina yesterday aina garten and he immediately started acting different yeah he looked so funny. I couldn't even look at him. No, it was actually jarring to see him looking so feminine. Like, he actually, like, looked pretty. The pictures of the two of you together, you were Jeffrey. Uh-huh.

And it was just. It was too much. It was far too much. It was too much for a kid's neighborhood Halloween party. No, I agree. Especially, we showed up to too much for a kid's neighborhood Halloween party. No, I agree. Especially we showed up to the Halloween party in Jackie's neighborhood. And like we thought, you know, all the adults would be dressed. It's a Halloween party.

Right. It's a costume party. And literally none of the adults were dressed. Now I know it's hard to. It's hard to get out the door with all your kids in costumes. Like I have, I have, you know, understanding for the moms and the dads. But like, come on, it's Halloween. Yeah.

So we just like felt really stupid walking around in my crazy Albert Einstein wig yeah walking around like in my huge Priscilla wig and heels yeah no we were like the big adult dopes yeah but at least we have each other you know right at least we had fun always not as fun as Tostowin 2022 we filmed some sickening content for our Instagram already so that's why i'm personally out of breath yeah and why we've already given it all to being the saris and damon so what does it mean to you to be king brother thank you for asking you're welcome i think like most great kings are good you know decent kings it's not something that i ever really wanted too badly right now that the responsibility has been bestowed upon me

I take it with the utmost seriousness now of course honestly I cannot believe that my podcast landed an interview with the king after so much fanfare um why don't you tell us exclusively who you meant your final message for yeah no I didn't stutter I meant for Rainiera um obviously Alison heard what you wanted to hear yeah like. Like, literally, I'm not well. Why are you listening to me? I'm making no sense. Right. And you're going to wage war over the nonsense I just spewed?

And brother, honestly, you should have taken a page out of my book and just killed her. Shoulda, woulda, coulda. Shoulda, woulda, coulda. But she's a nice girl, you know? She just is mixed up with the wrong crowd. The wrong seven. The wrong fam. The wrong fam.

I'm going to try and do it British accent as much as I can, but honestly, it's extremely difficult. It is. I need to. She's mixed up with the wrong fam, fam. That was really good. It is just a meme, but of course, we've got a fabulous show for you guys today. Fast five stories, lots to discuss.

You might be confused because you're probably like claudia you're dressed as damon targaryen you look like ava max the good news is and here's why the good news is we are recording a vlog yes halloween weekend at my house like getting dressed for yesterday getting dressed for toasterween it's honestly so funny and i did give claudia an alive haircut on the vlog so you'll see it all and you gave it really like zero percent of your attention i i didn't realize how much attention it required and for that i apologize she just went at it on one half with the scissors and now i'm ava max i was just like it's not real hair i'm the biggest pop star in westeros like well that ain't that the truth oh she's sweet but a psycho a little bit psycho i understand the ava

max look like i'm kind of feeling it not for this costume but just like in general no i've understood it for a while because it's like every pop star has done something you know we have two-toned hair we have a meat dress like how are you gonna stand apart how are you gonna top that i'll have two different length hairs no and it's like depending on what angle i take a picture from either i have like a cute mid haircut or a full on bob. A choppy bob. And probably Ava loves the duality of both. I would imagine brother. I honestly would.

Get you a girl who could do both. Get you a girl who can do both. So how was your weekend? My weekend was great. It was the same as your weekend. We had a great weekend full of Halloween. We didn't make our special cookies and we're running out of time. I know.

We are headed back. Actually Jackie's coming to New York with me when I return this week so the last couple of episodes um this week will be in New York studio with Jax which is so exciting so exciting and in less than a week is my 30th birthday I don't want to bring it up like I don't know if you like I'm embracing it you're embracing it yeah I'm excited it's another like I mean your hair is turning gray already it It doesn't have, like, birthdays, like, who said they have to get sad as you get older? Like, it's still a day about you. And especially as you get older, less days are about you. That's true.

Especially when you have kids. I look forward to seeing, like, how everyone plans to celebrate me. No, and you still get presents. And. And, like, when you're older. The people in your life are older, more financially secure. They can buy you better presents. They get better.

And also like I love to get myself a present. So that's exciting too. Right. And I'm working on that. You're working on that. Yeah, I haven't secured what I wanted, but I do want. Do you have an idea of what you want?

Yeah, I want a new crown. I think this one's a little rusty. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Rusty. Maybe you need a new throne. I can sit on the one you're currently sitting on. I'm sure you would love that, Damon, but let's be real. You're an amazing brother you're such you're

too good of an uncle a hundred percent you're too rainier loves you too much that rainiera and she's a good girl you know you're a good time like i would love to hit the clubs with you would love to hit the brothels and i mean this in all sincerity as your brother who is i think everyone can say like viserys is a logical king yeah literally i don't know if everyone would say that um you would not make a good king you would not you have a tendency towards the extremes you would let the power go to your head you would you would and i think your strengths lie in other pursuits bruv bruv we've literally discussed this in family counseling so many times and i don't personally appreciate you coming on my podcast that i have built from the ground up after i was with my name

after i was canceled in 25 bc i think it's really disgusting of you to come on here insult me on my show and honestly i think it's best if you just leave. Listen, bruv, let's get real once again. You're riding my coattails. Nobody would care about your podcast if your bruv wasn't the king. Oh, please. Do you see this hairline? Do you know what women in Westeros would do

to be Mrs. Daemon Targaryen? They would kill. They would die. They would kill to be my lady, to lay in my bed. They would die to be your lady. Do you know what women would do? They would sooner die than lay in your bed and change your bedpans, you old hag. At least I have women changing my bedpans, Damon.

Talk to me when you're old and grey. You know what I have? I'm already grey. You know what I have? Your daughter changing my bedpans. Let's not get nasty. Let's not get nasty. Says the king.

Says the king with no fingers. Let's not get nasty. Don't bring the daughter into this. Let's talk about the husband. You don't want to go there, you beast. So yeah. Beast in Westeros is actually like a flattering term. Like we have these beastly dragons.

No, I mean, I guess it depends who you are. If you're like a woman living in Westeros, I don't think you want to be called a beast. No, but are we women in Westeros? No. Oh, right, right, I forgot. We're the king and the spare. You should quit the royal family

and write a book called Spare. Oh my God, does that make Megan Rainiera? No, it's not totally analogous. No, it's not. But maybe I will write a book. But Damon does give Harry energy because it's that spare energy where it's like constantly being overlooked.

It's a lifetime of being overlooked. Yeah damon i again like i stated i think he's really successful in other pursuits like what you did in this in the sandstones so true you popped off damon you should be so proud i am i honestly i'm gonna have a beautiful beautiful sexy wife whom you know has oh i have a beautiful he heard what you said about i have a beautiful wife really stunning wife she bears my children she lays with me i'm so blessed to have such a wonderful gorgeous sexy niece slash wife listen bruv i've never been anything but kind to you uh so you didn't tell me about the song of ice and fire you did not tell me about the song Listen, bruv, I've never been anything but kind to you. So understanding. You didn't tell me about the Song of Ice and Fire. You did not tell me about the Song of Ice and Fire.

You're not the air, you're the spare. Well, I was the air. I was the air. Spary vibes. For 30 years. That mean nothing to you? Spary vibes only. I was the spare.

And I heard nothing about the Song of Ice and Fire. Nothing. Jealous? Are we? Yes. We have this little secret, us, in in line it's a song that we all sing sing it bruv it's the song of us and i literally knew you were gonna do that tune it's the story of the prince he was a prince who was promised and there's gonna be a war we're fighting in Ice and fire.

Fit for a prince. Yes, she is a big dumb hoe. Papa! death row this is the song that never ends get auto out of my bed chambers this is a song the prince will sing when song is ice and fire we're fighting with the north and there will be a great pyre this is the song i personally love when there's a great pyre the thing about the king is like everyone just sees king of course of. Of course. But I have so many other things that I want to pursue. Acting? Acting, singing.

Like I love to draw. I like to make my little sandcastle in my room. Yeah, you love a good Lego. I love Legos. And people just see king, king, king. What can we get from king? But what about what king wants? What about what king feels?

Brother, nobody cares. It's not about you. But I'm a person too, bros. You're not. You're just a King. You're just a King. I'm just a King. And life is a nightmare.

British people must be watching this like vomiting. No, I think they feel really good about it. Our accents? Yeah, because these aren't British accents. They're Westeros. And where the fuck is that? That's what me and ben were talking about last night because before i fell asleep i was like you know going on about how i was nervous about my british accent he's like well it's not even british because this right now is not a terrible british accent

and i don't sound like anyone from house of the dragon yeah no westeros they never tell us like where it is in real life but like if you you think about history, like it's somewhere in Europe. So yeah, we're not offending anyone in particular. No, I mean, I was going to try and be the whore, but I couldn't master her accent. Neither could she. Neither could she. So should we dive in? We've got a great show, like lots to discuss.

We do a lot of Halloween news from celebs this weekend. I want to talk about their costumes. And I have something to say about celebrity Halloween costumes. So- Like we really don't care? Not even that. Maybe it's like a self-owned to say this, but like I have no idea who these people are,

who they're dressing up as. Who they're dressing up as. Yeah, like all these Kylie costumes. No, it's like we've gone to a place in Halloween where people are just finding really, really niche pop culture references, whether it's like from movies, music, and like just make, recreating the exact photo. exact photo right well the thing about like the photo it's like did you even go anywhere did you do anything in that costume how did you move around they didn't

but also like i'm just gonna be honest and say like i don't know what a lot of these things movies characters are no like hayley bieber looked so stunning she had this whole photo shoot she was wearing a dress made out of flowers. And like the costume she said in her caption, it was like inspired by like, you know, vintage YSL. That's not a costume. Wear that to the Met Gala. Right. No, that's not even like, I'm really talking like Kylie's first costume where she's like bride of Frankenstein. That's what that is. I believe. I don't know. And then the second costume Elvira, I think was, what's that? I have no fucking clue. Maybe because I don't watch Halloween horror movies, but I think of this all the time. Like unless you're being something so obvious,

if you're a niche character, I'm like, I have no idea what you are. No, but then like the obvious ones, everyone does them. It's actually really, really hard, whether you're a celebrity or a lay person to like do a really good original costume these days. Yeah. Cause like they've all been thought of.

Yeah, but it's like, why are we putting this pressure on ourselves like no go get a spirit halloween put it on and go have fun i do feel like this year was like tame in comparison to previous years where people like were just going so insane photo shoot like four nights in a row yeah i feel like there was one night this year saturday night because halloween's on a monday and for the most part like people were doing one maybe two costumes but like there was a while where people were spending like so much time energy money on like these elaborate costumes photo shoots just to like do it in their house yeah for some Instagram likes

yeah but I don't like look forward to people's costumes in the way that I look forward to like people's outfits at the Met Gala or like certain things every year Halloween is not one of those things it just feels like a lot of times when you take some perspective you take a step back big bang you're like oh everyone looks like a clown of times when you take some perspective, you take a step back, big bang. You're like, Oh, everyone looks like a clown. Yeah. I mean, look at us.

We look amazing. We look, it's also important to mention like this conversation does not pertain to us, brother. Not at all. Whatsoever. Like not at all. Got our costumes from spirit.

Well, not these ones, but like yesterday we were like normal Halloween people got your costume from spirit, like worked with what you had in the house. Yeah. I think like I wore, I wore a wig that I got on Amazon I wore a dress of my own yeah and it was Halloween I did my own makeup I don't have to have a makeup artist I don't know if that's us

getting older or Halloween just like changing I think it's I don't think Halloween's changed I think it's people and the culture especially with Instagram and TikTok because now you need the TikTok video of you saying what the character said and And if you didn't take it, then why did you dress up in the first place? Oh, I have a good TikTok for us to make afterwards. What are we going to say? There's a scene from an interview with Alicent, excuse me, Alicent and Rhaenyra that's gone viral. What's your drink of choice?

A Negroni. Ooh. Spagliato. Oh, that's an interview with them? With Prosecco in it. Yeah. I heard, I know the sound. It's Alison and, it's grown up Alison and grown up Rainiera.

When they wanted us to learn more about the girlies who were playing the new, older characters, they did like these series of interviews and that little clip went viral. So we'll do it. Okay, cool. Yeah. Sweet. So now without further ado. Yeah.

The Streis brothers are here. They've been the most amazing dragons all day. Amazing, amazing. Like Dracarys on these hoes. Dr Do, do, do. The Strice Brothers are here. They've been the most amazing dragons all day. Amazing, amazing. Like Dracarys on these hoes. Dracarys, motherfucker. It is time for the Fast Five Stories that you need to know.

Legacy Box is the best way to take, we grew up in the VHS era, but whatever old like home videos you have sitting

in a basement, they digitize it all for you. They do it really safely, really securely, and in a timely fashion. And it is such a good gift to get for someone, especially with the holidays coming up. First of all, because you're clearing them of all this storage, like you're going to give them their basement back because all these boxes of tapes are going to be gone. And you're giving them memories back, which is so special. We did it a few years ago because we were like had boxes and boxes of VHSs in our house. And it is such a delightful experience because we used to spend like hundreds of dollars on these like vhs reader things and it just it never worked so um we were able to get back some iconic home videos of us singing the spice girls obviously you know one

of us really kind of stuck out as a star with like a potentially really good singing voice thank you that's really sweet it was me and I was really incredible. So legacy box is really easy. They do it all for you. So they personally digitize it in the U.S. If you have it, they can digitize it. Everything from VHS tapes to photos to super eight film reels.

So far. According to PH6. I'm curious to know what you thought was the best costume. First we have lizzo as marge simpson i thought it was okay yeah that's cool yeah it's a lot of work um i thought her other costume she's very like on the pulse of pop culture i want to kill my mom this kid who went viral on tiktok for like saying something crazy he um she dressed up as him in another costume i thought that one was better yeah like did she go to a party dressed as marge simpson

i don't know but like the, like, was giving me anxiety. Yeah. Like, if you get in an Uber, you're. Finished. $250 fine. Easily. Lily Reinhart, Madeline Petch, and Cami Mendes as the Sanderson sisters from Hocus Pocus. This was great idea, great execution.

Great execution. I think the Sanderson sisters has become, like, kind of, like, a corny, like, Halloween costume that everyone does. But it's back again because it's the sequel it's back and if you're going to do it at this level of like glam costume makeup and one of them is truly a redhead one is truly brunette and one is truly a blonde it was very well executed love it love it one of my favorites actually it was really well done and they made great content like this yes they made also like amazing tiktoks and stuff it was good oh I didn't even see those and i still liked it next diddy is the joker he was in like all of kim's stories where did they

go they went to she went to tracy ellis's ellis ross's birthday party oh and she didn't know it was not a costume party and she showed up in her blue x-men outfit as mystique from x-men i thought she was avatar so i thought that's what i mean i thought she was avatar too. Like, and then she posted with Natalie and Olivia and I'm like, oh, so you were Avatar and then they were something else. Yeah. And they all had names. And I was like, and I don't know who any of them are. And that's on me. This is self-owned. Like, I don't know Marvel characters. I don't know horror characters, Bride of Frankenstein. And I just don't imagine I'm the only person out there. Yeah, no, like, especially when it comes to like comic book stuff, like we're really kind of out of the loop

because we don't watch any of those movies. We don't know anything about Marvel, DC. So if you're going to dress as someone from that, I have no idea who you are. Also, dress as whatever you want. Just, like, could you write it in the caption or, like, give a reference to it? 100%.

You know? Normalize putting what you are in the caption. Like, in some way. 100%. That, I think, is important. 100%. Then we have Olivia Rodrig putting what you are in the caption. Like in some way. 100%. That I think is important. 100%. Then we have Olivia Rodrigo as Betty Boop. Cute.

Like really. I don't think I. I don't know anyone who's done that. Like that's cute. Yeah. It is a cute idea. I don't know if the execution was my favorite. That's what I would say.

I wouldn't have ever guessed she was Betty Boop. And I know Betty Boop. Right. I went to school with Betty Boop. Betty Boop and I are close personal friends. Right. Then we have Kylie as the bride of Frankenstein. She looks amazing.

Yeah. And now I'm glad to know what she was. Did you know it immediately? No. Okay. I never even saw Frankenstein. Like I'm not into spooky movies. It's from 1935, the movie.

No, but like I would know Frankenstein even though I've never seen the movie. True. So. True. She needed a Frankenstein companion. Travis. Travis. Then we have Kendall Jenner as sexy jesse from toy story this was like so basic i was shocked like i kind of love that she gave it obviously like no effort because it's like cool girls like don't care but like wow this

was really like generic okay i feel like i love i like i think she looks amazing um and i kind of like that's just like a normal costume where she clearly like could go to a party and she's like I'm just gonna be like a slutty toy story kids costume with assless chaps yeah yeah yeah like you know she looked amazing I loved the no energy yeah no there was energy put towards those assless chaps no I know but like when you look at like how long it probably took her to get ready versus Kim yeah no but I'm the thing is I'm sure it still probably took a long time to get ready versus Kim. Yeah. No, but I'm, the thing is, I'm sure it's still probably took a long time to get ready. Like with glam and everything.

Yeah. She's giving Prince Margo as princess Anna. She looks great. Yeah. Megan Fox and MGK were Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee. So the Pam, Pam, Pam Anderson costume was like this year's like basic bitch. Every, she looks like every other bitch. Like every girl who's

like skinny and has big boobs did Pamela Anderson like it was if you executed it well it was cute like most people just put on like a corset and blonde wig and like walked out of the house if anyone can do it it's MGK and Megan Fox and they did it really well but just like what I wouldn't have expected I couldn't have guessed like this was going to be like the basic costume that everyone went with um so like it them choosing that makes it like a little less cool and original but there were the they were the best ones to do it yes best executed yeah I think it's a great costume and it's topical timely that's why I think it like everyone popped off yeah it's all of the things that but then it makes you think kim was pam anderson like three years ago with jonathan i think ahead of her time yeah ahead of her time

hayley bieber as a model from the yves saint laurent hot couture spring 1999 show it's not a costume know that when you saw it like you just obviously don't know fashion it's this is not a costume but i love hayley bieber but it's just simply not a costume yeah it's an outfit inspired by fashion which is genuinely what every outfit is and so when you're a celebrity and you decide what you want to be for Halloween do you have to decide it in July so that you can have like a custom dressmaker like make this maybe not July well depending on what it is but I think like you need a couple of weeks like Like Kendall wants to be Toy Story. So she needs that shirt made like someone like that shirt.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't think they don't sell that at Spirit Halloween, but it's very Jesse. They also don't sell it at. No, it's custom. But I don't think July. Like, I think you need a couple of weeks to make a shirt like that. And Haley, how? Maybe a bit more time, which is crazy because it's not a costume.

I mean, I'll just stand by like dressing as a model from a fashion. Like it's not a costume. Yeah, no. Simply. And I just want proof that people went somewhere in these costumes. That's what I'm asking for now, too. I just want a reference in the caption and that you went somewhere. Well, because the big.

Otherwise, like it's just a waste of time, money and resources. The big Halloween party in L.A. is a Cosmigos party every year. And I saw a bunch of people there, but I didn't see any of the people we discussed in this article at that party. Yeah. Kim went out though. That was good to see. But to a not costume party. Right. But I think she went to a costume party after cause Diddy was there. Got it. Did she dress as anything else yet this year? I just want to say like having a birthday party on Halloween, that's not costume is like extremely just, it's annoying for other people

you know actually not to like be like an like a name dropper but if you read my book you know like on Halloween a few years ago I went to Seth MacFarlane's birthday party and it wasn't a costume party there was like one or two people there in costumes that felt so stupid and it's like I kept my costume in the car but like it is annoying and inconsiderate yeah because we're not staying at your party the whole time like we're gonna party hop and so we get in and out of our costumes because you don't want it to be a costume party make your birthday another weekend right and like for you it was just like pink lady like for kim it was a whole right it wasn't even elaborate in the car no it wasn't even an elaborate thing yeah yeah totally next we have north saint chicago and some west as elias snoop dogg uh saday and easy Snoop Dogg, Sade, and Eazy-E. I think it's Aaliyah.

Yeah, I think I... Botch it. Cute. Really cute. Kids be killing it. Like, that's a costume. Bailey, take note. Next, we have Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz as Romeo and Juliet, doing the absolute least.

No, it's cute. She's doing nothing. Oh. That's not a costume. He wore a knight's shoulders. Sorry, sorry. I didn't see that. That's not a costume. They're not wearing, actually, any clothing. That's costume. She's's not a costume he wore a knight's sorry sorry i didn't see that that's not a costume they're not wearing actually any clothing that's she's not wearing a costume like

that's like when you show up in whatever you're meant to wear and then like let's say we're romeo and juliet you know right they unless was a famous couple throughout history party like what is well then that does change everything was it a famous couple throughout history party like nothing about this what to me is that she's juliet no i mean she does kind of look like claire danes in that movie where she plays juliet but still like no coincidence coincidence yeah next ashley graham as a y2k angel that's like one of those costumes when people that's not a costume just like make some shit up no look i have a lot of y2k things in my closet. Like maybe I'll be like a Y2K angel.

No, I have a Y2K things in my closet and a pair of angel wings. Right. Yeah. Not a costume. Not a costume. People like always do like stuff like that. Like there'll be like a fairy who likes dubstep. Right.

The dubstep fairy. It's so stupid. Like it's so dumb. She looks great though. but why couldn't she just be y2k girly right y2k y2k literally literally this next costume might be my favorite okay jojo siwa as draco malfoy so she had um like cut and bleached her hair a few days ago and was making tiktoks as draco so i didn't think that she would be Draco Malfoy because she had like kind of spoiled it on TikTok. But she was and it was excellent. Like actually a costume where you like do a double take

thinking that the person actually is the person they're dressed up as is a successful costume. And she looks great, great, great. And she made amazing TikToks. Yeah. Vanessa Hudgens as Black Swan. Vanessa Hudgens like does always kill. She's like one of those girls who like does the party circuits and like always looks good.

This is like fine. Yeah, that's a great. Like it's a totally. Fine costume. Fine costume. Like I don't need every costume to break the internet. To blow me away. Yeah, except she was the one who did A Star is Born.

No, that was Nina Dobrev. And that was like one of the most embarrassing moments on the planet when she was dressed up as a baby who was also a star because the star was being born. I actually saw a picture like campaigning for an Oscar. I saw a picture of that recently and it was like reminded me of how embarrassing that was to be a human being alive during that time. It was horrifying. Really, truly ghastly, positively ghastly. Next, Sarah Michelle Gellar's tribute to Do Revenge, which is the movie that she was in. Oh, she said that she told the director she was jealous she never got to wear the costumes designed for the Rose Hill uniform.

And so she got one for her Halloween costume. That's like really cute, even though the movie was hella problematic. But cute. Yeah, cute. I'm surprised more people weren't that. It wasn't like that culty of a following. It was just like a movie people liked for a minute. But that's the thing about Netflix movies.

Will anything be super culty when it's just. An assembly line. A flash in the pan. Yeah. No. It's actually like Netflix has like shifted the way in which we like care about shit. Yeah. Because we care about it for 45 seconds.

Yeah. I feel like only TV shows really can be culty now. Yeah. That's a good point. They keep coming back. Right. And it used to be like to be in a movie was like to be in a real movie and to be in tv was kind of looked down upon yep speaking of being in tv matthew perry joined diane sawyer for an interview and he shared signs to look for

to indicate that he's relapsed so i watched his diane sawyer thing last night it was so heartbreaking like first of all and he's's like, he's mentioning it all. Like nothing is off limits. This is clear. Because he, he visibly looks different. He talks different. He's like, like the way he's aging is all because of his addiction. He, his teeth like don't like they're really, he has huge veneers.

He's like, everything is like, I've had 14 surgeries. Some of them have been dental because of my addiction. Like, so he's still kind of slurs his words. His health is much better, but it's like all the physical implications and the ramifications of his addiction. Like you can see, and he tells you like, I look like this. I talk like this because of my addiction. And it wasn't like, you know, a couple bad years.

And then he finally got sober. It was like eight bad years. And then like two years sobriety, two years off, one year on, one year off. It's been nonstop. And I think a couple of years ago, he got to a place where like, he thinks he might, you know, have been able to beat it for good. And that's why he's now telling his story. Um, and the, the, the takeaway that I had, like, he's not a thirsty person. He's enormously wealthy. He doesn't need to write a book. He doesn't need to do Diane Sawyer. I think he's so passionate about helping people like it's

so I think he like longs for I think he hopes like hoped that when he was younger someone like him would have been out there because you know you like used to talk about it in the early 2000s talk about addiction so he's so passionate about helping people and that's why I don't know if you've seen there's like a he like digs at Keanu Reeves in his book. Yes. And then he like apologized for it. Um, and I read something, I think it was on Dumas that was like really poignant. Um, and it's just like Matthew Perry hates Keanu Reeves because Keanu Reeves, I think did a movie with River Phoenix, Joaquin Phoenix's brother who passed away of an overdose. And it's like, like holds resentment to Keanu for not like looking out for River Phoenix or like doing more to help him because like

that's where Matthew Perry is now he's like obsessed with helping people like is he Keanu Reeves he had been an addict I don't know I don't know enough but like either he was there while River Phoenix was struggling or has struggled himself I'm not sure of the entire background so like it's not just about like you know actor beef because I don't think well the vibe that I got from Matthew Perry after the interview was like he's like not caught up he doesn't like he doesn't care about any of this stuff like he literally was put on life support he was in a coma for 14 days he had a two percent chance of living he was put on like on a respirator with five other people and that night and every other person died except for him like he's not supposed to be here um and like that's literally

all he cares about now like all he cares about he's such a p- here. And like, that's literally all he cares about now. Like all he cares about. He's such a P-jom. And another takeaway that I got from the interview is like, he's literally in love with Jennifer Aniston. He talked about her a thousand times. Jenny, Jenny, Jenny, Jenny. And it's like widely known. And he talked about when he first started working on Friends,

he had like a huge crush on her and asked her out. She said no. And she was like, of all the people, like everyone, the Friends like were really involved and wanted to help him like she checked in on him the most and like they have like a special connection it was like really cute like I ship them hard but it's so sad like his addiction took so much room like he never got married he never had kids like he's 55 he looks much older and he's like just now starting like he wants to get married he wants to catch up now and honestly like he needs to marry Jennifer Aniston he needs to marry Jennifer Aniston like I think that's how the story ends

well his book comes out this week I know stated that you will definitely be reading it well I sat down to read it over the weekend there's been so much hoopla fanfare and my kindle like wasn't working and it was just like pissing me off and then I realized my kindle's working fine the book isn't out yet so that's that on that I feel like after watching Diane Sawyer and all the press I feel like I know every it's only 250 pages like I feel like I know everything I feel like you probably don't though yeah because I don't think that he would give it all up you know and also there even though he seems to be like incredibly authentic he's not gonna like click bait click here read the book but there are probably PR people in the room who do need to sell a book and so they'll

make sure that he's not saying anything to Diane that gives too much away. Yeah. Yeah. Diane did a good job. I feel like, you know, there's a lot of interviews that Diane has done like over her long career that like have come back to didn't age poorly. And I think now whenever she does an interview, she's like very conscious of that. And she did a very good job.

I think he felt comfortable. He's like he was just it was really upsetting. Why does she says to like lindsey lohan like a lot of shit that that like when we watch like like britney spears type stuff right britney spears that's that's the one oh okay um and that happens with everyone like david letterman being disgusting to everyone so diane sawyer's not unique in that but, you know, she's being very conscious of her legacy here on out. Understood. Well, shit lives forever. He shared on the program that if he says, I'm just going to chill at home alone tonight, if he ever says I'm cured, that that would reveal that he has relapsed. He said, um, he talks about his struggle with addiction, of course, and told the journalist that he did all sorts of things to satiate his addiction over the years, including perusing people's medicine cabinets

at open houses, open houses to acquire Vicodin to maintain his 55 pill per day habit. And he said, I think they thought, well, there's no way that Chandler came in from us. Yeah, no, it was when he was talking about like the height of his addiction, taking 55 Vicodin a day. It was so crazy. And he did. And I feel like I've said this a lot about his weight on the show. He talks about that because he really struggled with alcohol too. And he's like, when I'm fat, it's the alcohol. When I'm skinny, it's the pills. So like, that's why there are such stark changes. And then towards the end of the show, like when he gets married to Monica, like the last maybe season and a half, two seasons,

he is living in a treatment facility and he's being driven to work in like a treatment facility van every day and that's why towards the end I never even realized that he looks so healthy and that's not like the beginning of his sobriety forever because he relapses many many times and then he ends up in the hospital his digestive system completely shuts down and that's what puts him in a coma for 14 days um but you really can track everything on friends and he doesn't watch the show. He's like really never seen it. Um, and so Diane had him watch a couple moments, some of the moments from when he is clearly struggling and some of the moments from when he's clearly healthy and he's like so upset like by the footage of him, like not looking well.

And then when he sees the scene where he marries Monica, where he's literally living in like a sober living facility he's like so happy he's such a p-jom like he's so cute and sweet and honestly we just we have to protect Matthew Perry at all costs that was my takeaway as a friends fanatic what was your thoughts on Matthew Perry slash Chandler before all of this nothing and that's what Diane Sawyer says she's like you would never know like every joke you're brilliant like every joke, you're brilliant. Like every joke lands. You don't look. What was one of your favorites?

One of your least favorites? Not one of my favorites. Not one of my least favorites. Like very mid. Probably spot, you know, three or four. Four.

Six. Six? Yeah. If I had to go in order, it would be Phoebe and then it would be Ross. Oh, it used to be Ross first. Was it? Maybe it would be Ross actually. Ross then it would be ross oh it used to be ross first was it maybe

it would be ross actually ross and phoebe interchanged one and two then it would be chandler and then it would be monica and then it would be joey and then it would be fucking rachel wow it used to be who was last um monica used to hate not like i don't know if she was last older i get but used to hate monica the older i get the more i understand monica used to hate not like i don't know if she was last older i get but used to hate monica the older i get the more i understand monica you should tell me tell me i'm a monica no the more the older i get the more i understand monica and the more like rachel is just like a fucking pick me girl who like expects everything to she's so spoiled like everything just like happens for that's not how it works in the real world like monica was chubby in her youth like she has grit

you know she has been through tenacity. So I, I think that's the beauty of the show is like, you really can relate to different people throughout at different times in your life. And that's what Sawyer, Diane, comma, Diane was saying. She was like, you know, what's so crazy is during COVID, like the show had a renaissance, a frenesance, um, 97 billion minutes were consumed of friends in 2022. That's amazing. I just want to say this new metric of- I know.

It's a Netflix thing. Of counting streaming time in minutes, like isn't working for me. Yeah, tell me nobody watches your show without telling me nobody watches your show. Yeah, like that's how Netflix, they do their ratings now, like how TV ratings are like 0.14 of this demographic.

Just tell me how many people too did. Just how many people like, I would even do started the the show and then also just let us know how many people started show how many people finish the show yeah no like how many people watch a show question mark it's not that hard like we do a youtube video and they're able to count views they don't do minutes streamed even though some people don't finish it like 100 i'm i'm rejecting this metric i because i have a brother i reject the metric along with you. I have no idea what it means that 97 million minutes were streamed. Yeah, no.

Billion. Billion. Yeah, no. That's a good call. Same thing. That's a good call. Because, okay, how many minutes is the entire show? So divide 97 million.

Divide by that. That's how many people watch it in its entirety. But, like, you do the math for me. No, and then some people watch it, like, multiple times. So it's like, I could have been responsible for a billion of those, you know? Right. It's not working. it's not working it's not working um and as we get further into the streaming age like that's gonna have to be corrected immediately the interview was on hulu speaking of streaming so you can still watch it that's where i watched it last night

i'm totally gonna read his book and he's really like we must as a society like we must protect him okay at all costs he was so cute well thank you for watching and updating us it was so good like i loved it i wanted it to be longer and i want to see more of his house like and also like i wanted like obviously like i wanted to talk to him about addiction but i also just like his career is like insane he like decided to be an actor he was always like funny oh also it was crazy he's like he's been like an alcoholic since he was 14 since the first drink he ever had. Like, wow.

And he grew up like his mom was press secretary for Trudeau's dad, who was also Trudeau prime minister. His dad was like a big actor on sitcoms. He was like this golden child. So it's not like, you know, addiction is like, you come from a dark past. It's like, it can happen to anyone. He literally had like a charmed life in Canada,

moved to America, like auditioned and just, you know, got a role on the biggest show ever. Yeah what I found to be most interesting that um Chandler he's so funny Matthew Perry so I mean we weren't really alive like when Friends was airing like we weren't conscious of what was going on in the world so apparently when the first season aired like David Schwimmer was like the it boy like he was the first one who got a role in a movie and he was like the biggest star of all the stars. And after the first season, everyone's contract was up for renegotiation.

And David Schwimmer was like, we should do it as a team. And Matthew Perry literally says to Diane Sawyer interview, he's like, fine, idiot. Like I'll sure like you're having. Right. And that's really why they were so successful was because they all got paid the same. It was an ensemble show. No one was, you know, more of a star than the next. And even though David Schwimmer in the beginning,

like I guess was the most famous one, it constantly shifted. Like then Matthew Perry was on the number one show and had the number one movie, which is something only him and someone else have done. I forget who, but he was like, had the number one movie in theaters and the number one TV show on TV.

So it constantly- Jennifer? No, Matthew Perry. Oh, so it comes. No, Matthew Perry. Oh, someone else in the world, in the world has done. Yeah.

So it was like, it was really impressive and it was constantly shifting. But the fact that they always maintained that they were equals is why one, they ended up becoming the highest paid actors on two and on television and two, why they were so successful. A hundred percent. It was really smart. And it all started with David Schwimmer.

So I feel like David Schwimmer gets like a rep now for being like, kind of like a dick. But it was him who, who decided that they all should stay a team. Amongst other things. That's probably the biggest factor in why the show was so successful because we see all the time. It ruins.

When people get success so quickly, like then they start to resent the show. We saw that with Jeanette McCurdy. Right. Right. Not getting paid. The same amount. But also the difference with that. It was iCarly. Right. It's not resent the show. We saw that with Jeanette McCurdy. Right. Right. Not getting paid. The same amount. But also the difference with that.

It was iCarly. Right. It's not an ensemble show. Right. But this was an ensemble show. And yes, like when it first launched, some people were more well-received, but they didn't let that change the dynamics. And then it constantly shifted.

Jennifer Aniston became, you know, like everyone had their own moments. Yeah. Wow. Interesting. It was really interesting. If you like friends like i i recommend it and if you're like into like not into but like if you're curious about like addiction yeah he speaks about it very poignantly like you don't have a choice so like when he was like i was

in a rehab facility i was leaving after like 90 days after one i think he's been in rehab like six times maybe more he was like his therapist was like don't forget like this isn't your fault and he was like what he's like what do you mean? Like, I have free will. He's like, no, you actually don't like in a scenario like this. And he was just really well spoken about it. And I loved it. Loved, loved. Great.

One is a entirely bachelor couple. Astrid Locke and Kevin Wendt got married one year after welcoming their son. They fell in love on Bachelor in Paradise and had a baby last year and now they got married it was a

bachelor studded affair with rachel lindsey blake hortzman alexis waters christina shulman and ritney whitney franz way i haven't heard so many of those names in so long like and christina giannina uh blake and giannina are still together still together and for halloween they dressed as each other on each other's shows so she was bl Blake sweating and crying when Becca broke up with him. And he was her running in that wedding dress. He wore the actual wedding dress from the show. I'm so thirsty. I can't.

Like, I really can't talk about it. Let's talk about Kevin and Astrid. I think they're such a great couple. And I'm so glad that they've stood the test of time. I don't think about them often. But every time I do, I just check in. I'm like, are they still together? I don't keep up with Bachelor anymore.

I don't really care. But these two that came out of it like I love it I love it I love it so much and it really goes to show I feel like so many people on the bachelor like they don't get together they don't stay together because like we live so far apart our lives are so different and he lived in another country he lived in another country she lives in Tampa they're making it work they're making it work yeah what's your excuse you know literally what's your excuse no they're so cute love them. I think that was a great season of bachelor in paradise. It was, but the only thing that's a shame is that they ended

the season. Like Asher and Kevin weren't together because they thought that they couldn't make it work. Like they broke up like really randomly. We didn't see their engagement. No. And then they got back together in real life, like a few weeks weeks later and so it's like just not a perfect season because they don't ride off into the sunset together i think someone's cooking some chicken it smells good it's possible is this a phantom smell because i'm hungry no i definitely smell something i know someone's cooking up my chicken from last night and if they eat my chicken i'll be so mad because like that's what i wanted for lunch schnitzel i'm gonna take this fucking sword you have extra schnitzel though i know but like the one from last night it's probably not your schnitzel but'm gonna take this fucking sword you have extra schnitzel though i know but like the one from last time it's really good it's probably not your schnitzel but it could be

it smells really good it does smell good i'm pissed oh no it actually smells like there's veggies being cooked oh then it's definitely not mine um and also another bachelor wedding was this weekend so if you weren't at one you were hopefully at the other maddie pruitt got married in dallas shout out adam gotchuk for the premium content. I follow him on Instagram. Adam and Raven. I felt like I was there. Then also Hannah Ann was there. Kelly Flanagan, Victoria Fuller.

Kelly Flanagan is dating Pilot Pete, although maybe she wasn't given a plus one or maybe Maddie didn't want her ex-boyfriend at her wedding. Maybe both. Yeah. Because they're only dating. No ring, no bring. So Maddie and this guy have been together.

I think they were dating for three months before they got engaged or they were dating. Sorry, they were engaged for three months. Yes, that's it. Okay. I think they were dating for three months before they got engaged or, or they were dating. Sorry. They, they were engaged for three months. Yes, that's it. Okay.

They've only been engaged for three months. And I think a lot of that has to do with the fact that they're deeply religious and they did not consummate until after the wedding. So, you know, girl's got to do what she's got to do. She looked beautiful. People,

um, people have really started to fucking hate Maddie Pruitt. Cause she's like, um, on Tik TOK at least she went viral. I feel like she's always viral. No, but so she became. She's like a motivational speaker.

Not a. She's a pastor. Like a. Like a youth leader. She's like a youth leader. Youth group. She's not a pastor, but she speaks. She is.

I don't know what the word is. She doesn't do sermons, but she. But she gets on stage and preaches. Yes. Yes. At like these big churches that have like videos. She wears like a little TED ted talk microphone it's at a church or like a convention i think it's a church i think it's like a mega church okay so this um path this sermon she gave like went viral because she said jesus is the only one who can satisfy and then like everyone was like i can

satisfy this you know um and she's just like really religious and so i feel like just people like hate religious people so i kind of feel bad for her um because she's a nice girl her engagement and the whole thing is like definitely you know fast but they seem to be in love and they had a stunning wedding stunning i think she trimmed her hair i think it's all so nice like first of all she was always that religious on the show like people didn't like peter wanted to pretend like he could change her and like she literally had to leave him because he wasn't like the man of faith that she was looking for she's very principled she's so principled I feel like she found the right person for her and she's like why wait like let's get married no totally who said you have to wait to be engaged for a year like people used to like literally meet and get

married within six months yeah so no I think she's sweet like i it's obviously not how i would do it but that's because i'm not maddie and i'm not catholic yeah but like you got married young i did i did well i don't think they're young how old are they i think she is young she was she's 26 now but like she was like 23 on her season i mean it's not that young to get married, especially if you're a virgin. I got married at 17. Especially if you're a virgin. All the power to you. I hope they stay together just to prove everyone wrong. Everyone's just so negative.

Because he's a little cringe. He's like, hey, girl. His intonations. He's a little weird. I'm not in it enough to have seen negativity. I don't think I follow her. All I see is negativity. So I only see when they got engaged and the highlights and obviously I'm not on TikTok and sometimes I have seen her reels of her speaking engagements yeah but I don't like read the comments so I don't know no no like they went

viral on TikTok but she's also like so viral in the other like it swings both ways like she's has so many followers from the show yeah she's She's a big influencer. No, and she did a good job transitioning. She's very niche. Like, she's very Southern. She's very religious. Like, and she thrives in that digital community. Right. I think she's, like, living her best life.

And maybe that's not for you out there. But she seems really happy. Yeah. No, and she looked beautiful. The wedding was beautiful. It was at his family's house. It was a beautiful house. Beautiful wedding.

Oh, gorgeous. Yeah, really gorgeous. Really, really gorgeous. He's an's an heir an heir not the spare no he's an heir to a billion dollar fortune yeah i'm not sure what from but gotta look into it very nice so for that love that for her yeah get a girl get a girl our next story um it's not the fifth and final is it no we have two more stories with a little tech news okay first of all instagram is down right yeah what the fuck and users are reporting their accounts are being suspended and people are losing followers amid the mystery outage but i don't even you might be losing followers from people's accounts being suspended

right so like i wanted to see if i lost followers but like honestly i don't even want to go look because apparently if you open instagram and you close it your account will get suspended so like I'm not even opening the app oh well I opened it but then I and then I heard about this so I closed it yeah yeah no and I haven't opened it since but I want to see it if I'm losing followers or anything interesting Instagram is like constantly fucking up and they really need to get their fucking shit together like and they're like you want to be the number one platform meta you want to be it all well that comes with responsibility they also love to gaslight because people are reporting this and like enough for it to be like we heard about it this morning it's already like a news story issue

instagram tweets we're aware that some of you are having issues accessing your instagram account we're looking into it and apologize for the inconvenience gaslighter yeah like not just like hey shit's crazy over here we're working on it just like stay tuned yeah no that's so true like the way in which they like minimize it in their statement yeah totally but it's like we we all know yeah no it's really fucking annoying like my um like this is how most people whatever business you're in like a lot of people's businesses reply rely on instagram and they're like always fucking up.

Our fifth and final story is literally the funniest news I've ever seen. It is hilarious. Pranksters posing as laid off Twitter employees trick media outlets. So a pair of pranksters posing as laid off Twitter

employees tricked multiple media outlets on Friday as the public anxiously awaited news on whether Elon Musk had begun axing staffers. So CNBC's Deirdre Bosa interviewed two people. This is so embarrassing for Deirdre because she's really like the one who's getting dragged. Interviewed two people who identified themselves as Twitter employees and were seen near the company's San Francisco headquarters carrying cardboard boxes. So these guys, the two men said they were named Raul Ligma and Daniel Johnson. So we have Ligma Johnson who's laid off. They're walking outside of Twitter headquarters, just carrying dress like classic Silicon Valley engineers. Like everything they're wearing is Patagonia,

like the backpack. It's so funny. And so like, I guess nobody thought to like check if they were real employees. They just like took advantage of the fact that like the media was waiting outside Twitter headquarters, like sharks, like eating up whatever was going to happen. So they stood out there with cardboard boxes and was like, yeah, I got laid off. I've been a software engineer here for six years.

Like they were just making shit up. They were like, I'm really worried about how I'm going to, you know, make my car payments. I actually have a Tesla. I love you, Elon. It was so funny. They were just like trolling the media and like the way that like it's actually crazy how like you would be a reporter and not even verify that these people worked right at Twitter right it's like at the end of the day it's like a funny thing but also it's like a statement on like how

embarrassing it is to be a journalist like it reminds me of the Manti Teo documentary where those guys who unearthed that the girlfriend was fake were trying to like make a statement about media how like they could just keep saying the same story over and over again without even looking into it one iota it obviously turned into something other than that but it's so true yeah no it's like it's really embarrassing for everyone who was like caught you know the the tv cameras doing interviews with these guys the guy and they don't even realize they're being trolled the guy's like all right I really gotta go I gotta talk to my husband and wife about this like husband and wife like nobody even guy, and they don't even realize they're being trolled. The guy's like, all right, I really gotta go. I gotta talk to my husband and wife about this. Like husband and wife, like nobody even blinks.

And they weren't, the funny thing is like the concept of what they did was really funny. I didn't think in the interviews they were being that funny. No, they weren't being like crazy pranksters. It was like, this was just the prank and really nothing more. Elon tweeted about it.

He thought it was funny. He thought it was funny. He said that Ligma Johnson had it coming. He had it coming. With an eggplant emoji and a spritz. Water. Water. Anyways, the CNBC reporter tweeted,

it's happening. Entire team of data engineers let go. These are two of them. She said they are visibly shaken. Daniel tells us. Daniel tells us he owns a Tesla and doesn't know how he's going to make payments on his Tesla.

No, the visibly shaken is so embarrassing for Deirdre. So embarrassing. But then I went to Deirdre's profile because I was like, has she corrected this? Because the tweet is still up. And this is what she, she quote tweeted herself and said, earlier today, we reported on CNBC that a team of data engineers was let go at Twitter based on the account of two people who told us they were part of that team. We have not been able to confirm that they were actual employees or that the CEO has laid anyone off today. Oh my god not her like literally not correcting it. Literally. We were unable to confirm. Well you never tried. Right and she said

confusion reigns outside Twitter HQ. Are people being let go? Are they trolling the media? No the questions haven't answered. They are trolling the media. No that's so crazy to like get trolled. It's like so embarrassing but then to not own it like. Or like delete the tweet like this is misinformation. No you honestly were not. If you're spreading misinformation like you can't delete it as a reporter you have to like follow up with a correction you can't just remove it the article you know right no it's like the lack of journalistic integrity in this country it's giving muckraker it's giving muckraker journalism like and these guys are like on twitter now you know like laughing about it so it's like confirmed been a it's a confirmed prank um Daily Mail got pranked hard

because they were like, Ligma left Johnson, right? Our two software engineers. It's so fucking funny. It's so funny. And it's literally like a perfect prank because these guys, I don't think they wanted to be famous.

They just thought it was funny. They didn't really have an agenda or anything. They just wanted to be funny. Yeah, and they succeeded. It's funny. It's a good prank it really is so that's what she needed to know those were the past five stories reminder to ligma johnson that's kind of like my key takeaway always like constantly be ligma and johnson's you know yeah like my johnson yeah today that's what i say to your daughter i say hey rainier get over here ligma johnson Yeah. That's what I say to your daughter. I say, hey, Rhaenyra, get over here.

No, like for Viserys, like I had to really tamp down some of like my inner- Rubber energy.
