Starting point is 00:00:00 Good morning, Millennials! Welcome back to The Toast and, ugh, you know what? I'm really struggling, Jax. Because it's the final one? No. Well, yes. Yes. Why are you struggling? So, it's such a layered story. Well, good thing for us that we have all the time in the world
Starting point is 00:00:21 that you love to tell stories and you love layers. I do. Thank you so much for saying what I could not say. all the time in the world that you love to tell stories and you love layers. I do. Thank you so much for saying what I could not say. I want to give it my all. You know, as you mentioned, today is our last show before your very short maternity leave. And I was ready last night. I'm like, oh, I'm going to give these people an episode they'll never fucking forget. And I have had such a morning that all I want to do is like be negative queen. Like, you know. Okay, tell me about your morning and I'll tell you if the negativity is warranted. Okay.
Starting point is 00:01:00 It's not even a warranty. Like I couldn't change it if I wanted to. It's my physical being now of negativity, you know? Yeah, but the toast has a way of turning a negative into a positive we also can turn a positive into a negative it just depends just give us enough time so tell me what's ailing you okay so Ben golfed this morning he I think he did like nine holes at like the crack of dawn so he could do it before work. He's home already, like whatever. But that meant he woke up at 4.30. And he had the craziest, loudest, scariest alarm. And I've been up ever since.
Starting point is 00:01:36 Was it a new alarm? Oh, the one. The one. It's funny how we all actually have the same alarms. That's like kind of a great equalizer. We all have like the same four to choose from. Now, I appreciate you trying to put a positive spin on this. Listen, so you've been up since 4.30.
Starting point is 00:01:52 It happens. And let me tell you what I'm feeling. Anger, of course. Like how my husband could be so thoughtless, so reckless, so dismissive, you know? I'm feeling tired. I'm not going to lie. I'm talking very slow. It's very not like me.
Starting point is 00:02:12 And I'm feeling sad because all the plans I had, you know, to be like this kind of extraordinary podcast host today, it's not feeling like a possibility. Anything is possible. Don't give up but we're gonna work through this what do you do it goes without saying what did you do since 4 30 a.m I'd be happy to tell you know it goes without saying I know you're a mom you have 4 30 mornings every day you know my battle and your battle my journey and your journey are not the same so let's just keep that out of it, okay? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:45 I mean, I thought about contributing how my night went, you know, which it didn't go according to plan either. It never does. But I don't want to take away from your negative experience. Thank you. I don't want to minimize what you went through. So I laid for about an hour until 530. Then I went on my phone 530 to 6. Posted some stuff on Instagram which kind of alerted you know my my inner circle that I was awake. My friend Abe called me. He had just got back got back from LA so he must be like off
Starting point is 00:03:22 kilter in terms of his timing as well. And he was also just laying in bed mad. We were just two people stewing in bed. And then I was like, you know what? Should we get breakfast? Because I was thinking, like, why did I turn this negative into a positive? And I was fully prepared to do that. Like, I was tired, but I didn't feel, like, terrible. So I went and met Abe for breakfast.
Starting point is 00:03:45 And then as we're sitting there, my friend Margo texts me. She's like, hey, I'm up too. I'm like, oh, my God, come eat us for breakfast. So I actually had, like, a very nice – it was kind of like an episode of Seinfeld, just, like, a bunch of girlfriends and Abe sitting at a diner. You know, it was nice. And I was ready to kind of, like, conquer, make this my day, make today my bitch. And I'm sitting, I'm eating my eggs, I ordered something healthy. I'm, like, feeling good Make this my day. Make today my bitch. And I'm sitting.
Starting point is 00:04:05 I'm eating my eggs. I ordered something healthy. I'm, like, feeling good and proud of myself. And I just get hit. You know, like, the wave of exhaustion that's, like, nausea? Like, airport vibes? I am familiar. I am familiar.
Starting point is 00:04:19 So I was like, guys, I can't. Like, I just was broken at this diner. So I walked. I tried to, like, you can't. I just was broken at this diner. I walked. I tried to get myself out of it. Keep trying to be positive because we ate really up town. I was going to walk home. I'm like, I got my blood flowing. After 10 blocks, I was like, girl, I got to get out of here. I held a cab. I actually ran into some
Starting point is 00:04:36 toasters on Lexington Avenue. Then I got into a cab, went home, and I've just been laying a piece of shit in my bed ever since until we had to start recording. And my spirit has just kind of diminished. My will to live has certainly diminished, as has my joie de vivre. And now we're here.
Starting point is 00:04:56 Do you have a coffee? I had a Diet Coke. Doesn't count. Yeah, but I'm banking on a nap. So like the coffee will have to wait. If you're that tired, you'll fall So like the coffee will have to wait. If you're that tired, you'll fall asleep. The coffee will have to wait. Okay. I just I'm not feeling like you're feeling bad for me. No, I do. Because you know, the the what's hard, what's hard for you is still hard for you even though it's not the craziest thing. I just – I want to move on from it, you know?
Starting point is 00:05:31 Wow. Wow. Okay. Like you shared your truth. We all – we stand with you against Ben as we always do. Yeah. Like this is major. Like I'm definitely thinking about contacting a lawyer.
Starting point is 00:05:45 Like that's how mad I am. Like I'm going to sue. How – why did he do that? Like why didn't he put on a delicate alarm, sleep on the couch? So he's golfed before and woken up early. And he always like disturbs me but never to the point that it like fully wakes me up. Today was like another level of carelessness. And I think we've learned a lot, know from this experience as a family if you want
Starting point is 00:06:06 to golf in the morning you have to sleep on the couch yeah or maybe I mean you didn't fall back asleep maybe were you hungry no hmm it happens and I'm not really looking for like any sort of reasoning to put the blame on me like oh you woke up because you were hungry no no just I'm just always trying to find learnings for the next time yeah my learning is couch yeah my learning is I'm like I'm about to start ruling this house with an iron fist when it comes to golf like we've taken this way too far that's insane that he would choose to wake up at 4 30 to do something like yeah what is more pleasant than an extra five hours of sleep no if somebody was like you can meet Taylor Swift but it's at five in the morning I'd be like well tell her I say hello send my regards yeah yeah that's what's really crazy like the golf obsession has gotten
Starting point is 00:06:57 out of control I agree like this is really kind of uh And we're going into the weekend. Like, golf on the weekend. Literally. Golf on the weekend. Golf on the weekend. No? What were you singing? Love on the weekend. But I made it my own. Okay, that's what I was thinking too. Yeah, yeah, but it didn't sound like it. I made it my own. Golf on the weekend. It is hard. Yeah. Like. What's the next line? It's like the same thing. Love on the weekend. Why don't I know how that song goes? It's like love on the weekend. Love. Love on the weekend.
Starting point is 00:07:34 So now you understand my struggle. So we made it our own. Yeah. So yeah, I understand your struggle, but I don't think you understand mine. I do understand yours because I've literally been in that place where I've woken up at 4 30 and then had to stay up like till it was just go time and then you do hit a wall and crash and that happens to be the time that we're recording. Yeah I am definitely like not letting this mar the final episode like I will I will persevere I will be strong because I'm an incredibly strong person and and I know nobody you know who's currently on earth has ever
Starting point is 00:08:05 dealt with something as difficult as what I'm dealing with currently like I fully understand that and like I know you don't have to say like I am a hero so uh and like I feel hungover I oh my god I did have like two sips of wine last night do you think that's what's going on you had two sips like literally two sips nah you don't think where'd you go to dinner amaranth oh you guys love i figured you went somewhere like neighborhoodly yeah i went to um dinner with uh two of my friends from high school and their husbands and i like brought them to one of my favorite restaurants and like it was you know when restaurants are just having an off night like everything in the kitchen is rotten and it just wasn't good I guess yeah it just it
Starting point is 00:08:48 was not it was bad and I was like I brought shame to my household I'm like oh me and Ben love this place me and Ben are disgusting no like me and Ben have no taste it was humiliating I'm sorry so it's just loss after loss for Turdy Lou it is but again final episode before your break and like that's so dramatic like there'll be Patreon episodes like there'll be plenty of content
Starting point is 00:09:10 you guys will be hearing from us but not the traditional toast and you know what I can't lie like it does feel good like the way people
Starting point is 00:09:19 are like losing their minds they're like you should have given us more warning like as if we could have planned anything about Jackie's pregnancy,
Starting point is 00:09:25 but I digress. The way people are so mad, like, I've never felt more loved and relevant in my life. I know. It's nice to be missed. It is.
Starting point is 00:09:34 You know what? I think we need to, the one thing our show is missing, there's just one thing. Yeah. It's mystery because we're just, like,
Starting point is 00:09:42 always sharing everything. It's so true. And maybe after this month, we'll kind of be, like, those just like always sharing everything. It's so true. And maybe after this month we'll kind of be like those like mysterious girls, like those podcasters. Yeah, they're so mysterious. We'll be like mystery Dow Jones. Literally. Yeah, I agree.
Starting point is 00:09:57 We need to inject some mystery into the pod. So after today, we'll see you on the Patreon where you can uncover the mysteries. Yep. You know, by the way, Jaggi, we could be unmysterious for a price. Oh, for sure. Wait, also, now that it's like the final episode before your leave, how are you feeling? Like, can we get like a little pregnancy update?
Starting point is 00:10:19 Oh, I'm feeling good. I mean, pregnancy-wise, physical-wise, like I am broken, especially like towards as the day goes on, like I just break down by the night I just can't stop like groaning and complaining I'm just like oh and every I'm always like oh and Zach's like what what what I'm like right it just is he's like grabbing the hospital bag yeah he's like what was that I'm like just life right just existence was it a kick I'm like no the kicks don't hurt like it's everything else like it's right breaking my back Shai-San is the only one who understands what I believe that and it's just it's really getting physically
Starting point is 00:10:57 very painful and uncomfortable uncomfortable is really the word like I'm very uncomfortable right now in the mornings I feel good because I get like to sleep. I'm off my feet for however many hours. And I wake up feeling refreshed. But as the day goes on I just really deteriorate. And it's really increased in intensity. Can I ask you a question that might be personal and you can just like say no. I'm not answering.
Starting point is 00:11:20 Oh sure. So something I've noticed just like being at your house and like being on FaceTime with you all the time is that you have foregone bras. No so I wear I wear like a hatch the hatch maternity bras which are for pregnancy and nursing and that's what I wear around my house all day most of the time. This morning I didn't put a bra on yet but when you come over I'm always wearing like it's a very very loose bra so it doesn't dig in at all. It doesn't provide a bra on yet. But when you come over, I'm always wearing like – it's a very, very loose bra. So it doesn't dig in at all. It doesn't provide a ton of support, but it's more than nothing.
Starting point is 00:11:52 Got it. Because I would imagine like for girls like us, like not wearing a bra is like crazy. No. The digging in is worse than – Got it. Than the sagging. Than like carrying your boobs. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:03 And you just want freedom. Like I'm also not wearing pants. Not wearing a waistband. Like I'm wearing a nightgown. And those, I love the Hatch maternity bras though. Like if you are looking for a tiny bit of support, no digging in. Right. Them.
Starting point is 00:12:18 They sent me like six of them. I don't know what I would have done without them. Shout out. Mm-hmm. Okay, cool. Thanks for answering. Yeah. Okay, how about another personal question? How's your mucus plug? of them I don't know what I would have done without them shout out okay cool thanks for answering yeah okay how about another personal question how's your mucus plug uh I don't know I have become obsessed with mucus plugs since I found out what they were on your last pregnancy and I'm always asking my pregnant friends I'm like how's your mucus plug they're like how do
Starting point is 00:12:41 you know that yeah but okay I'm sure cool no they're like, how do you know that? Yeah, but, okay, I'm sure. Cool. No, they're like, I'm feeling like I'm going to go early. I'm like, well, did your mucus plug fall out? But it's not always so textbook. No, I know, I know. But, like, I just want to impress people with, like, the things that I know. Got it.
Starting point is 00:12:57 My, with Harry, so many things were, like, so textbook pregnancy. Like, a movie. It was just, like, crazy. I guess it was nice that it was the first one and so many things like went as they should because it prepares you for what to expect because now I like it no that makes sense that it was like a movie it makes sense that it was like a movie because you gave birth to a movie star oh totally baby Harry yeah so just coming down to the wire trying trying to stay comfortable. Do you want me to give you a foot massage when I come over later?
Starting point is 00:13:28 If you can do a good one. Zach's been getting a little better. You would let me touch your feet? For sure. Oh, wow. I don't know if your skills would be worth the touching. Trust and believe. I got you.
Starting point is 00:13:44 Also, at the time you come over is not really when I'm, like, craving one. Okay. When Zach is giving you foot rubs, I think about this all the time because, like, I always make Ben rub my feet and he's, like, he's good at it but, like, stops after 10 seconds. Yes. He's like, I've been doing this for two hours. But, like, I imagine, like, I always think, I'm like, you know, like, when I am pregnant, God willing, you will never stop. Like, not for one moment.
Starting point is 00:14:04 Not to go to the bathroom. Like, you will rub my feet God willing, you will never stop. Like, not for one moment. Not to go to the bathroom. Like, you will rub my feet till your hands bleed. You think? No. Okay, so that's what I was asking. Like, last night Zach was giving me a foot massage. It was actually going well. And I wasn't, like, begging for him to stop.
Starting point is 00:14:16 Because he usually just does it so bad that I'm like, forget it. Right. Weaponized incompetence. He was doing a nice job. And I was like, okay, more. And it was literally maybe five minutes total. And he was doing a nice job and I was like okay more and it was literally maybe five minutes total and he was like oh like it it's you think that when you get pregnant your husband's just gonna give you massages all day every day but like they really don't that's
Starting point is 00:14:36 and unless it's good like my one of my irks is like being rubbed in the same place over and over again yeah it like hurts and just becomes tender and is doing nothing. Yes. So unless it's good, I don't even want it. A hundred percent. I feel that like completely. I hate when people like keep rubbing on the same spot. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:14:56 It's like a sensory thing. Yeah. No, it really, really irks me. But like when I go get a pedicure or something, I get my feet rubbed. It's wonderful. So it's not me. No. But like when I go get a pedicure or something, I get my feet rubbed. It's wonderful. So it's not me. No, a pedicure, chair, like massage, even for a few minutes, is I think, you know, the closest to heaven I'll ever get.
Starting point is 00:15:16 Yeah. So it's not me. It's just him and his skills. And I think like just like we have to take, you know, labor and birthing classes. Men should have to take massage classes when their wives get pregnant. Oh my God. I love that. There's no reason that the massage shouldn't be good you have big strong hands and also like it's a massage it's not rocket science right figure it out right watch a youtube video yeah no i think that that should be normalized i love love love love love
Starting point is 00:15:42 yeah but you know somebody should offer like one of those places that does like prenatal classes. Like there's like a class for women on the breathing. They throw the men in the corner and teach them how to massage. So they actually, in those prenatal classes, they do teach the men how to massage through labor pains. Like there are certain. No, not the same. But I'm not, I don't, like at that point, no offense, your massage isn't helping me. I'm talking about the 10 months prior.

Can I ask you a question? And like it might be my like, you know, tired hangover making me like self-conscious, but like you seem like annoyed with me. Are you? No. Are you mad at me oh that was not a sufficient answer you're like no I'm trying to reflect no like I'm taking what you
Starting point is 00:19:31 said okay I'm reflecting on the last 17 minutes and I'm trying to see what could make you think that and if in that time I became annoyed with you yeah like if you're just you know like pregnant that's fine but like if i did something like let me know no i don't think that you did okay okay i just feel like i'm like being annoying and i'm just trying not to be but like i don't know what i did to be annoying you know no i i'm i'm or or it's all in my head i'm i'm internalizing no maybe if i listen back like maybe you're it's you're not making it up i'm internalizing what you said though which is why it paused because i'm not just gonna be like no no the hesitation like definitely gave me pause
Starting point is 00:20:09 the hesitation was meant to indicate that I took your question seriously I so appreciate that Sheldon that was so something Sheldon would say so no I don't believe I'm annoyed at you in conclusion we're good yeah okay. No you're just like kind of giving like annoyed older sister energy like I don't think that I am but if I am I apologize. No no no no no no no no apologies necessary. I know you had a hard morning
Starting point is 00:20:36 I don't mean to add to your burden. No no no no no no. I was just making sure. Yeah. Not us having a fight. No I'm now I'm trying to think back to like what I said are we in a fight shut up okay now you're being now you're looking for a fight and now we are no now you are looking for a fight yeah yeah I am you'll find one I'm sorry oh yeah I just need to open the bedroom door and I'm ready to unleash. Oh, true. Have you not unleashed yet?
Starting point is 00:21:06 No, I was like as he was getting home, I was setting up. So I was clipped. So what is it going to look like? Honestly, I feel like there's real power in the silent treatment. Like I don't want to, I think I really need to be like, like seriously, like no talking. Okay. That's one of my favorite modes. Me too. Of treatment. It's a mighty powerful weapon.
Starting point is 00:21:29 It is. But you have to have patience. You have to have the stomach for it. For them to even notice that you're ignoring them. But it's more humiliating than being like, I'm not talking to my husband. And literally he doesn't even notice. He has no idea. Luckily for me, I'm an extremely patient person.
Starting point is 00:21:42 So it works for me. But I could see you being like, I'm bored. Let's talk. Yeah, I'm bored. We're fine. Yeah, let's move on. I'm sorry. I'm sorry for ignoring you.
Starting point is 00:21:54 Yeah, I don't know if you know this, but I have been ignoring you. That was really not cool of me. I'm sorry. Literally. Should we dive in? I feel like that's what we're here to do. It is what we're here to do. We have some really nice stories to wrap up the week.
Starting point is 00:22:07 I feel like all the stories this week have really been piggybacking off of one another. So... Yes, it's been update after update. I think today's episode will tie up a number of loose ends. Also, we're going into, you know, night two of Eras LA. And I want to say, just like a promise promise if a singular Kardashian because we I think six shows left there's a ton of shows in LA if a singular Kardashian goes to the Eras tour just one of them there will be an emergency podcast on Patreon I will probably sit down with Margot or someone who
Starting point is 00:22:37 cares and I just don't worry okay because that's been my concern like the the timing of your maternity leave is amazing like August is such a slow month. But it's LA eras and we've been talking about it for so long. So if anything happens, last night no one was there. If anything happens, there will be an episode. Don't worry. What were the songs last night? Stay, stay.
Starting point is 00:22:57 No. Yes. Stay. No. I can see you waiting down the hall with me. And then it was either Maroon or Stacey. No, it was Maroon. It was Maroon.
Starting point is 00:23:08 They're getting to be like not that. Well, Maroon, she had already played. So it was a repeater. And I Can See You is a new song. It's honestly my least favorite vault song. Yeah. I just had like a stroke. My least favorite vault song.
Starting point is 00:23:24 So I'm okay with these yeah no like I don't know why everyone's treating LA so special I don't know why she did the most shows there like if she had announced six shows anywhere all six of them would have sold out like LA is not special everybody there needs to calm down and they're annoying me wow I'm just jealous well I just feel like the surprise songs are kind of losing their luster I don't know if it's because this has gone on for so long or because like she gave like a song from a recent album and a vault song. Like and for people who are like passive fans, not even me,
Starting point is 00:23:50 because I think I'm a very active fan compared to the average American. But the people who are passive fans, like they don't fucking know those vault songs backwards and forwards. Yeah, I think like the amount of passive fans at these shows is like less and less. Either because passive fans
Starting point is 00:24:05 are becoming activated well no that's it the only reason sorry okay okay yeah um but for me any show where peace isn't played is a win I think it's like pretty obvious now it'll never be played it's just like not a song that's even it's not even an option so I don't even I used to wait up for like every show I don't even check especially with these to wait up for like every show. I don't even check, especially with these West Coast times. Girl, I'm going to bed. Yeah. I mean, so even if you waited up and checked, then what would happen? Then you still have to go to bed.
Starting point is 00:24:34 It's an amazing point that you raise, yeah. So you might as well find out in the morning. And if my husband keeps waking me up as early as he does, I'll be the first one to know on the East Coast. Totally. You could get a flight in time for the next show. Literally. All right. So let's dive in, girly girl.
Starting point is 00:24:46 Let's get into the Fast Five stories that you need to know today. Great. Thank you, Claudia. Our first story, is this the big first step to Meghan Markle's comeback? Wait. I'm obsessed. There's actually a lot going on with Meghan Markle. Did you see her at her 42nd birthday party?
Starting point is 00:25:04 Yeah. Looking like the Snatcher. Fucking glamour. Oh, my God. I'm obsessed. There's actually a lot going on with Meghan Markle. Did you see her at her 42nd birthday party? Yeah, looking like the snatcher. Fucking glamour. Oh my God, I'm obsessed. So today is her 42nd birthday party. And insiders are saying that she is getting on Instagram with her Instagram page ready to roll out after quietly getting ready to make a comeback online.
Starting point is 00:25:19 So the handle at Meghan already has like a couple thousand followers and people are speculating that it is Megan's personal account that will be forthcoming with content soon and that is going to be like one way that she comes back into the spotlight no I'm like extremely here for it and I actually think um this isn't a bad idea I think you know sharing your life on social media is a great way to like show who you are. And I feel like so much of, I feel like she definitely feels misunderstood in a lot of ways and a lot of the things that are written about her. So to be able to just like put out your own narrative and your
Starting point is 00:25:54 own content, like I kind of love this for her. And like this is who she was before she was a royal. Like her blog, the tig, she's very lifestyle. I feel like it's going to be very like Oprah, Martha Stewart farm vibes. I'm here for it 100%. And that outfit, that birthday party, I never saw somebody look so beautiful in my life. And that wasn't even like a good high quality paparazzi photo. Yeah, no, she did look wonderful celebrating her birthday. I agree that Instagram could be a good avenue for her to take a stab at, like becoming like a lifestyle influencer.
Starting point is 00:26:23 I feel like one, from what we've seen of their lives, like it's very aesthetic. You know, they have the chickens and she could do the whole Martha Stewart thing. Maybe a little Joanna Gaines sprinkled on top, like cooking, home, family, mom. And she should give that a shot as her next like career path. I think that that might really work out for her. I completely agree. I will definitely follow if, but this is all like a conspiracy theory.
Starting point is 00:26:50 Nobody knows for sure if this random account that popped up called at Megan is her, I mean, it's a good guess. It's a pretty good guess. And it would make sense as like her next foray as her career. The only thing that I think that she will need to like be very conscious of is like being actually authentic
Starting point is 00:27:09 and like the way that her podcast came off so produced to people. Like people who like to see that stuff on social media where it's like all, you know, high quality images, like not iPhone pictures, all captions. Like it needs to be semi real. Yeah. No, I think you make a really good point, especially as it pertained to the podcast,
Starting point is 00:27:29 where there are really no successful, highly produced podcasts. Like they're all just very raw, very real, no time limit. Unless they are like a storytelling podcast, like fiction. Yes. Sorry. I'm talking about like hosted by people for people. Instagram, like you can be very produced if you want to. And it's not the worst thing in the world. But if she wants to utilize it in the way that I think she does, you're right. It needs to have, you know, a dash
Starting point is 00:27:56 of authenticity. Like it needs to kind of look like she runs it herself, even though she probably doesn't. And that's totally fine. Yeah. There will be a content calendar and a schedule as there should be. But they need to focus on making it feel very real because I feel like that's been the criticism from some of her other projects and that's also what works on Instagram like relatability with a little bit of aspiration you know it's all it's a recipe and I think it could be a recipe for success for her. Yeah, I think yesterday was a very good PR day for Meghan Markle. She looked stunning.
Starting point is 00:28:28 Everyone's excited about her Instagram. I'm excited about her Instagram. I think this is good. Yeah, so hopefully she would start to post soon if this is really her. A source told Page Six that she was set to like come back to Instagram right before her podcast launch but then she changed her mind
Starting point is 00:28:42 so it's just like sitting there now and she had said in her interview with The Cut that she was going to come back to Instagram, and then she never did. So it's not so far-fetched. No, it's not. Definitely not. And that's just like her passion.
Starting point is 00:28:54 With everyone watching Suits, like that's part of the restreaming process is you get a bunch of Instagram followers. Me and Ben sat down last night, and I'm like, we're going to start a new show, Suits. And he was like, oh, okay. And then the first episode's an and I'm like, we're going to start a new show, Suits. And he was like, oh, okay. And then the first episode's
Starting point is 00:29:07 an hour and a half and it was already like 9.30 and we were just not wanting to stay up that late. But he's like, I'm so down, just like not right now. I keep telling Zach
Starting point is 00:29:13 like he should watch Suits because he watches like, I don't know what kind of show that is called, but that's like what he watches. He watches like, Designated Survivor, like all people in offices
Starting point is 00:29:23 in high power jobs stomping around. And I'm like, it's Suits people in offices. In high power jobs. Stomping around. And I'm like, it suits. Like you should watch. He should. He hasn't been influenced yet. But maybe he will be. But last night we actually were watching Quarterback.
Starting point is 00:29:36 Oh. It's like a really cute. Not cute. It's a good concept for a show. It follows like three quarterbacks this season. Like three real ones. They're all real. I thought it was just Patrick Mahomes.
Starting point is 00:29:46 No, Patrick Mahomes, Kirk Cousins, and Marcus Mariota. And they're all very different quarterbacks and like in different phases of their career. Oh, so you had told me about it. And I told Ben, I'm like, we should watch it. I thought it was like such a nice thing for me to say. He was like, no, I want to watch Sean White's documentary, The Snowboarder. So we watched that. It was good. I like seeing watch Sean White's documentary the snowboarder um so we watched that it was good I like seeing Nina Dobrev Ben is like obsessed he grew up in like the
Starting point is 00:30:09 billabong x games Ben used to fucking love the x games like so it's really his passion I couldn't really care but I did I did like a lot of the Olympic footage like I enjoyed it very cool what's crazy is I was enjoying quarterback enough like you know one eye on one eye off. Same with Zach. But Zach was the one who turned it off because, as I said, and he agreed, it was too much football. It was like we were rewatching games that, like, if you care about these games, you've already seen.
Starting point is 00:30:34 There was behind the scenes stuff, but like there was literally would be like five minutes of like game content. And it's like we saw these games. It was last year. Yeah, no, that's annoying. And so Zach said it was too much football. Oh, damn. Yeah, but it was cute.
Starting point is 00:30:48 And it seems like a pretty cool concept that they like literally got to follow Patrick Mahomes for a year. And he won the Super Bowl. Yeah, that is cool. But Kirk Cousins seems like a really nice guy. Let me look him up. I don't know what he looks like. Is he cute? He's really cute.
Starting point is 00:31:01 He's very. Kirk is such an underrated name. Oh, what a cutie and him and his wife are and they have like kids they're very normal and apparently she dresses him for all of his games and she just like shops at like Sam's Club and Target and like all of his shirts like go viral because people are like I'm obsessed with his wife his style isn't like great but it's like her picking them out and who was the other guy Marcus Mariota he had an interesting story too it was his Italian Mariota it was his first season with the Falcons oh my god he's also
Starting point is 00:31:33 like and also his wife and Patrick Mahomes's wife at the time of filming are pregnant so there's just like a lot going on in the life of a quarterback which I think is the point of the show is incredibly hot yeah have I never heard of a quarterback, which I think is the point of the show. Marcus Mariota is incredibly hot. Yeah. How have I never heard of this person? I know. I said to Zach that's the only name that, like, didn't ring a bell. He said that wasn't surprising.
Starting point is 00:31:51 But it's also because he, like, has kind of bounced around a little. This was, like, a big first season for him. Understood. And I think based on, like, the, you know, coming up this season stuff, he might have gotten, like, benched at one point. Yikes. Yeah. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:32:04 Like, that's kind of embarrassing when you have a Netflix dog. Right. So it was pretty cool that they got that. That is. Yeah. I won't be watching anymore but I enjoyed what I did watch. Okay. So Megan might be on Instagram. Stay tuned. be on Instagram. Stay tuned. Are you staying tuned? Yeah, I'm waiting for you to say the next story. Okay, next story. Beyonce has a very interesting object on her rider for the Renaissance World Tour that is making waves. Beyonce is bringing on her Renaissance tour to every stop a like little golf cart box full of her own toilet seats I'm sorry what's a golf cart box like it's a box that has to be like put into it like uh if I showed let me send you this picture you'll is it like a toilet she can use on a golf cart no no no I think they put their own toilet seats onto the toilets at the arena stadium I mean
Starting point is 00:33:07 I do feel like you know sanitizing them is probably enough also there's not like that many people who go to the personal bathroom of the big dressing room in an arena but I understand I understand unless it's like a a toto toilet seat and it's warm oh I see this picture okay so she's bringing her on toilet seats you know what i feel like at a certain point like all the shit on someone's rider like beyonce probably doesn't even know i think she does i think this is honestly i goals like first i think it's a toto toilet seat because really like to bring swap out one toilet seat for another. Can you just attach a toilet seat? Can you just attach a Toto toilet seat to a regular toilet?
Starting point is 00:33:52 Maybe Beyonce has a travel Toto. Maybe they've made one. So you're saying they are uninstalling the toilet in her dressing room. No, no. Just the part you put your ass on. No, but I'm saying Toto like being a heated seat and everything. You need it to connect it to a Toto toilet in order for it to work. I think that she has a travel Toto. That doesn't need to be connected to a Toto. Right, that you could put on any old bowl. Let's see if they do, Toto. And it'll warm
Starting point is 00:34:18 and spray you and wipe your ass. Oh, you're 100% right. They do sell just the seat with the bidet. It's 500 bucks. I think she has that on her tour and I think she should. It comes in cotton and Sedona beige. Gorgeous. Yeah, I could see that. It has an air dryer, a heated seat, cleansing spray, deodorizer. Yeah, I see that. Those are all things you need on a tour. So true. You got to keep that pussy tight
Starting point is 00:34:50 when you're, you know, entertaining thousands. Yeah. I think it's very ingenious and more people should do it. Assuming that's what the toilet seat is. But the box is literally labeled toilet seat. So like they are bringing,
Starting point is 00:35:06 and it says Beyonce toilet seats. They're bringing their own toilet seats. If you had a rider, what would be like the craziest thing on it? Nothing at the moment because I'm very low maintenance. But if I ever reached world tour status, I'm sure I would have built up to some really exciting asks. I probably have like a frozen yogurt machine. And I need them to transport my personal bed to every venue so I can lay in bed until the minute I have to go on stage. Yeah. Just some initial thought starters. I actually do have a rider when I'm on tour, but it's very
Starting point is 00:35:37 simple. Like snacks, tequila, mirror, handheld fan. You know, nothing crazy. Nothing crazy. One day you'll get to bring your own toilets. Yeah, one of these days.

Starting point is 00:40:30 because Taylor Swift has announced more Eros tour dates for the U.S. and Canada in fall 2024. You guys, this is so exciting. Taylor posted yesterday. Turns out it's not the end of an era. Miami, New Orleans, India, and Toronto, the Eros tour is coming to you in 2024 with Gracie Abrams. And she gave us dates.
Starting point is 00:40:49 So next fall, Taylor in Miami. Like, I'll be there. So crazy because she started this tour in like the spring of 20. Oh, 2023. I guess not that crazy. No, it's not that crazy. Oh, OK. She's just doing a lot.
Starting point is 00:41:08 It's just crazy that she's like coming back after everything that she's doing overseas. that crazy. No, it's not that crazy. Like, over a year. Oh, okay. She's just doing a lot. It's just crazy that she's, like, coming back after everything that she's doing overseas. So crazy. I was literally just about to sit here and be like, I can't believe this tour has been, like, ended up lasting three years. I don't know how to do any math. No. It's three to four years in Claudia's book. But it's quite literally, like, 14 months. Yeah, so far.
Starting point is 00:41:21 I feel like she'll wind up adding more U.S. states if she's coming back and more parts of Canada because Toronto is just one eastern city right but I'm so glad that we have confirmation for Florida because I will get to go to the Air Store which was something that I made peace with yeah that I couldn't go and I was totally okay with that but this will be so fun yeah it's gonna be a bloodbath I'm having you know. To get tickets? Yeah. More so than the first time? It's just a different part of the country that she didn't go to.
Starting point is 00:41:51 She did Tampa, actually, so maybe it'll be like a little less. No, it's still, it's just, it's crazy no matter what. Yeah. Well, we'll do the queue if that doesn't work. We'll overpay on StubHub. Yep. But we're going to go. We're going to have a nice time.
Starting point is 00:42:05 I'm very excited. I'm looking forward to it. I'll clear myubHub. Yep. But we're going to go. We're going to have a nice time. I'm very excited. I'm looking forward to it. I'll clear my fall 2024. Yeah. And then also what was so exciting was Luke posted yesterday to wrap up his U.S. tour, Luke Holmes. And he said that's the end of the U.S. tour for now.
Starting point is 00:42:17 Not Luke leaving Easter eggs. Luke told me he's coming back to the U.S. You will definitely be able to see all the concerts that you missed so you should feel good about that like you're fine and then you get to also have a child which is fabulous. So fabulous the only one now I'm waiting on but I'm not gonna get greedy because two out of three like I is enough for me Diana I didn't think I would get one Morgan Wallen. Yeah yeah I don't know if that show's ever gonna be rescheduled. No he rescheduled a ton of
Starting point is 00:42:42 shows for the fall oh he would have to add that life whatever shows he didn't do because of his loss of voice yeah I believe those are in the fall but I'm hoping that he adds more dates because those cities were not like I mean I guess I could go if I wanted to but that doesn't really work for me so wait Jax what are your surprise songs like what do you want for tailored no oh my gosh well I know for Luke I'm more interested in Luke's surprise songs because apparently all my favorite songs don't get played at his show but by the way you know that he does do a surprise song what was yours before um the show they have this QR code it's like scan it and vote he gives you three options one of them is that Ed Sheeran song dive that he's like very famous for covering one is um I don't remember I think but
Starting point is 00:43:36 what was your guys you guys have like a sponsored song yeah that's it T-Mobile like does and I believe it was See Me Now from the album got it or was it still it was still that would be amazing surprise song yeah I think it was I can't remember I'm like my amnesia okay what are your Taylor songs okay I'm going I just looked at my Taylor like my like songs on Spotify search Taylor um I have some Midnight's favorites but they're all like kind of sad. I don't know if that's a vibe. Okay. Like Snow on the Beach, she doesn't play, right?
Starting point is 00:44:09 She has. Or bigger. It was actually like one of the first. I like Bigger Than the Whole Sky too, but it's just like not the vibe. I don't think she's played it. I think that's like actually too sad. Yeah, agreed. So I Shall Keep Going.
Starting point is 00:44:21 I want one of the classics, honestly. Okay. Like, I don't even know. Like, let me go to her. Are you okay? Her album. It's overwhelming.
Starting point is 00:44:40 It is, and I just like, I don't, I, a lot of my favorite songs like she plays already like I'm not trying to right oh right you know what I mean yeah did she she plays the archer yes okay I'll be okay I'll take what I get I'm excited I just hope no vault songs because I'm not activated what about like all too well 10 minute version that's a vault song no but that's in the set list yeah no vault songs has surprise songs because I'm not activated. What about like All Too Well 10 Minute Version? That's a vault song. No, but that's in the set list. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:08 No vault songs as surprise songs. What about Better Man? Yeah, that would be cool. That's a vault song. Oh, I don't think of it as a vault song. I think of it as like a song she wrote.
Starting point is 00:45:18 A cover. It's a cover. Exactly. Yeah, no. It's going to be so great. I'm so glad that you're going to get to experience the magic. Christmas Tree Farm. That's what I's going to be so great. I'm so glad that you're going to get to experience the magic. Christmas Tree Farm.
Starting point is 00:45:27 That's what I want. Oh, my God. When's the show? October. Shit. That would be such a good surprise song. That song is literally low-key amazing. Amazing.
Starting point is 00:45:40 And dance under sparkling lights. And all these, like, I love Evermore and Folklore, but when I look at the titles of the songs, like, I don't know what song it is until I listen to it. Do you know what I mean? I do. But that's not what it's like for you? No, no, because I'm like a scholar in Evermore and Folklore studies.
Starting point is 00:45:58 Does she play Gold Rush? No. That I would like. Yes, that's a very good song. Okay, so Gold Rush and Christmas Tree Farm who are the openers for the U.S. shows Gracie Abrams okay good because when Haim comes she doesn't play tis the damn season she cancels that one and brings them out for nobody no crime well it's good because I'll probably have to go to the bathroom at some
Starting point is 00:46:20 point no yeah I went to the bathroom during this is gonna be a very hot take okay lover what song lover lover okay it's it's like not my favorite song but that's really early in the show no I was drinking like I really had to pee but you broke the seal how many more times did you pee I peed five times at the first show and you also you had a bathroom in your suite no oh sorry okay sorry so the first time when I went in a suite I peed at 22 and I only peed once and it was no regrets then when me and Margo just bought random tickets the night of for MetLife night one we had uh seats right by a bathroom when I say it was a three second walk and it was like weirdly no line. I peed five times
Starting point is 00:47:05 and I peed during Lover and then the other four times I peed when she was talking in between songs and I didn't miss anything. Wow. Yeah, I would definitely go pee for 22,
Starting point is 00:47:15 I Knew You Were Trouble. I don't think, did she play I Knew You Were Trouble? I don't think she does. And what's the other song from that, from Red that's so annoying? All Too Well 10 Minute Version, she does. Oh what's the other song from that, from Red that's so annoying? All Too Well 10-minute version,
Starting point is 00:47:26 she does. Oh, We Are Never Getting Back Together. Oh, Taking a Dump. Yeah, by the way, that and 22 are like back to back.
Starting point is 00:47:34 I was in the bathroom. Going to the bathroom. Changing my tampon. It's giving red. Applying my lipstick. Literally. Getting a snack. Also giving red. Getting a literally also getting red getting a drink yep yeah
Starting point is 00:47:47 that's so funny but you have to time it good because red all too well 10 minute version like that is like what i'm most excited to hear totally it's it's really like a religious experience yeah so thank you taylor for that very exciting for me so thank you Taylor for that very exciting for me our next story a little more world tour news sort of Doja Cat teases Victoria's Secret world tour performance so welcome to the Boss Bitch world tour Doja Cat revealed she will headline the upcoming Victoria's Secret world tour the lingerie brand's revamped fashion show in a new interview with harper's bizarre thursday and she rocks some very racy lingerie looks for the event um the program will debut on amazon prime in september on september 26th and i guess doja is the performer so but they've rebranded
Starting point is 00:48:40 like it's not the victoria's secret fashion showFW it's Victoria's Secret world tour are they actually going on a tour no I don't know it's very confusing it's very confusing it's part fashion show part documentary but is there a tour no I don't think so but I have to imagine they changed the name because like the association was negative from like all the years that they did the show even though I think people still like fondly look back on it like even you know say what you want about body image or whatever like it was a fabulous night on television like it was like a kind of like a cultural event yeah it was and also it's like still called Victoria's Secret whether you want to call it Victoria's Secret fashion show or Victoria's Secret world tour like we're not dumb we know what we're watching no so true not Victoria's Secret like thinking we're stupid so you might
Starting point is 00:49:32 as well just like capitalize on the brand equity that you do have instead of confusing me with a world tour and I feel like one performer is not a lot I think towards the end they were between like three like Taylor was there with Fall Out Boy. Like they have like a bunch of collabs. Yeah, they would do like around three performances and they were always so good.
Starting point is 00:49:51 Yeah. Though I do think of the moment. Doja Cat is really the perfect choice for this. Me too. But who else would be cast if let's say they did three?
Starting point is 00:50:01 Then you have to like switch it up because she kind of has like the pop girly covered. Yeah. Honestly, I feel like Olivia Rodrigo because also she's like promoting something why'd you make a face are you not a love Olivia Rodrigo fan I don't think so I think maybe like I like her music I think she's so talented but I I don't know something I don't like okay not about her she seems lovely and she's so talented but just like I don't know I feel like she's been doing some stuff that I'm just meh are you speaking in defense of Sabrina Carpenter maybe maybe that's where it all
Starting point is 00:50:39 starts for me that's interesting because you're like a woman who defends other women. Yeah and all the stuff with Taylor like is so sus. It's so weird. And there's definitely beef. Yeah. And it's just weird. I agree. Okay um all right so we're not casting her then. I guess we have to throw like a man in it. I could see like something now like the Jonas Brothers would do. 100% it will be the Jonas Brothers. 100% The Jonas Brothers are getting like such a unique sort of like career angle where they're now just giving like, you know,
Starting point is 00:51:14 going to the opening of an envelope. Very commercial, like very, like just selling every piece of their business. Yeah. But like I respect it and at least they're still putting out good music. No, it's true.
Starting point is 00:51:27 At the end of the day, like the Jonas Brothers do not put out bad music. It's just like bop after bop. They always work with Ryan Tedder. Like they know what's good. So you know what? You want to make TikToks and, you know, promote literally everything?
Starting point is 00:51:38 Yeah, like do a Waze collab and perform at Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. Yeah. Yeah. Do a Wways collab. That's funny. Like, they're selling, like, their voices, their speaking voice, their singing voice,
Starting point is 00:51:51 their, like, everything. They are for sale. He's got Villa One. But I also feel like... Kevin wrote a children's book. But I feel like that's exactly why they got back together was, like, expressly to make money. So go ahead and make money.
Starting point is 00:52:04 They're all husbands and fathers and like it's a business they also have a popcorn company yeah no they're for sale yeah and you know what nobody understands that better than me because one thing about me is like I can be bought and apparently so can the Jonas Brothers yeah for sure okay wait let and then now let's think of our third and final act oh so, so it's Jonas Brothers, Jojo Cat. We need maybe like something like more rock. Honestly, like it'd be pretty cool if it was like Post Malone or something. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:30 No. No, I can see it being like Travis Barker. He kind of is always popping up to that stuff. Yeah, but Travis Barker doesn't sing. He's like a feature. No, well, Blink-182. Oh, okay. Cool.
Starting point is 00:52:42 Yeah. But do they have to play new music or can they play like old stuff i think they could play old stuff okay i like that that's like a kind of sickening lineup that we did yeah actually you know who i could see actually doing it right now kelsey ballerini 100 percent that's a good call 100 percent percent or kelly clarkson i wish. And I want that bitch in lingerie. Totally. Wings. I want to see that sexy ass bitch.
Starting point is 00:53:09 I love that bitch. I love Kelly. Yeah. And she'll be like, like, I love that. Are you ready for our fifth and final story? I am.
Starting point is 00:53:18 I'm like slurring my words. I'm really not okay. I'm like having a stroke. But I do feel better. Good. Good. Our fifth and final story. The microphone that
Starting point is 00:53:25 Cardi B threw at a fan during the Vegas show is being auctioned for charity so the mic oh that's good the microphone that she held at her fan
Starting point is 00:53:33 during her show at Dre's Beach Club in Las Vegas is being auctioned for charity on eBay Scott Fisher whose company provided audio support
Starting point is 00:53:40 for the show as well as for a lot of nightclubs in Vegas listed the mic Tuesday morning and as of Thursday afternoon the bid was at more than $99,000 in the description he claimed we provide more than one microphone for this particular show and verified with the in-house crew which one was specifically used by Cardi for the show got it um I at first thought it was like
Starting point is 00:54:03 the person who found it on the floor and like was kicked out of the venue or whatever um auctioning it off for profit but the fact that it's like really legit that it came from the production guys and that they're what charity the wounded warrior project which is um dedicated to helping veterans and service members and the friendship circle las vegas which supports people with special needs oh my god i used to volunteer with friendship circle new york i love yeah circle honestly wait at first I was ready to be like oh my god everyone tries to make a moment of everything but yeah you know what this is all to the good yeah no it's nice um I don't know like who the fuck is paying a hundred grand like
Starting point is 00:54:41 who who has a hundred grand I have no idea I feel like it's like people like internet trolls kind of like bidding but like you have to put down a credit card you can't just like bid yeah no I don't think they're just bidding because it's on ebay like you will get charged if you win right it could be like some of the party's biggest fans yeah I want to find the listing just like to see what's what's going I mean people are nutty people spent like how much on that banana peel at art Basel that's true at least you get a microphone for this with a little bit of a funny story behind it Jackie um do you know the brand of the microphone sure it. It is a Shure microphone. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:55:26 Well, that's worth its weight in gold. So there's 122 people who have bid on it. It's currently at 100,000. He has lots of pictures of him with the microphone. Oh my God, this is the funniest thing ever. This is the Shure microphone shown in the viral videos Cardi threw at a person. There are literally tons of links to videos all over the internet.
Starting point is 00:55:47 You can see in the videos the white tape across the bottom. My name is Scott. I'm the owner of The Wave. It is an audio company. We provide yada, yada, yada. I was encouraged to sell this mic but decided I would try to do some good. 100% of the profit from the sale of this mic will be split evenly among two charities. The first is a local Las Vegas charity called Friendship Circle Las Vegas.
Starting point is 00:56:05 The Friendship Circle is an organization that teens and young adults volunteer helping children, teens, and other young adults with special needs. And the second is Wounded Warrior Project. Beautiful. But there's like, okay, then he posted an update. This very well may fall upon deaf ears to any bidders, but this is an actual serious auction and the money is going to a good cause. If you don't plan on paying for the item, please don't bid. If you want a piece of
Starting point is 00:56:28 hip-hop infamy and what has now become national and worldwide news, then please bid whatever you are willing to spend. Thanks. Yeah, I guess like you could put your credit card in but could get declined. Right. Damn. Oh, and then he gave another update yesterday that a company called LM Cases is going to donate a case for the microphone. The case that they are building is going to be more of a display type and will have a Lexan cover so the winner can display the mic in their office or wherever they decide to keep the mic. Thanks to Billy at LM Cases for this. Yeah, so I don't know what anyone would care enough to do with this microphone and to spend that much money on it, really.
Starting point is 00:57:06 But I like where their head's at. No, this was like a really sweet thought. Mm-hmm. Did you see Cardi B's tweet yesterday about the Orthodox Jews? I did. She's kind of losing her marbles. Okay, you know what? I had totally forgotten about it until this very moment.
Starting point is 00:57:22 Shout out, I saw it on Liz Height's story. What the fuck? She was basically saying, like, come for come for me I don't care because I have Jewish lawyers yeah but what she posted on Twitter was a picture of two Orthodox Jews who are probably definitely not her lawyers no no they're like civilians in the street yeah she like google imaged Orthodox Jews and then she just wrote caption remember dot dot dot because I think the charges like or whatever law legal thing that was happening due to her throwing the microphone has been dropped so I think that was her saying like because of my Jewish lawyers and I'm just like really not into it like the the incessant thing in celebrity culture like throwing Jews under the bus like I'm really over it and I need everyone to shut the fuck up and eat my fucking
Starting point is 00:58:04 ass like for real. My big hairy Jewish ass that's not a lawyer. Like seriously stop. It's really starting to piss me off. No it was a very icky tweet. Like I'm all about the jokes but that wasn't funny. No it wasn't funny.
Starting point is 00:58:16 And also like it was confusing and when you just like post a picture of two Orthodox Jews without context it's like. You're inviting like all sorts of like hate speech yeah no I'm not into it I feel like I'm always defending Cardi but like she's actually pissing me off now with the microphone thing and now this like it's because I just read the night and get like sometimes I'm like okay to laugh stuff off and when something is funny like I
Starting point is 00:58:35 can acknowledge that it's funny but like it wasn't funny you're annoying and um and I hate you yeah no it wasn't funny and it wasn't a joke it wasn't a joke I don't know what the point was yeah I don't know what it was yeah I agree she's rubbing me the wrong way yeah yeah first you know the assault yeah where you know now that I've had enough time like she was wrong you know at first I was really on her side and now I'm like actually you were wrong she should buy the microphone if no one can actually pay for it oh my god I love that idea and give the money to charity and then we can wrap up this whole incident with a nice big with a nice bow I love that Jack's except for the tweet the tweet is
Starting point is 00:59:17 the outlier the tweet remains question mark yeah all right those are the best five now I'm in a bad mood thanks Cardi I forgot about that sorry but you have question mark. Yeah. All right. Those are the past five. Now I'm in a bad mood. Thanks, Cardi. I forgot about that. Sorry, but you have some time off now. Good mood.
Starting point is 00:59:30 Oh, yeah. Okay, so let's talk. Okay. We're going to miss you so much. I'm going to miss you. I mean, I'm going to see you like every minute of every day.
Starting point is 00:59:41 Yeah, I'm actually coming over after the podcast. Can't wait to see you. But like you're going to be back, of course. September 5th is when we return, guys. And we will be back with a hybrid. Jackie will probably be joining us at first once a week. And it just won't be the same without you, Jax.
Starting point is 00:59:58 Yeah, but you know what? I'm excited to see what you do with the show and make it your own with all the guest co-hosts. I'll be watching because the toast is a perfect you know new mama companion so I'm excited to be a toaster I'm excited to have updates for everyone and to embark on this next chapter and I just want to thank everyone who has been so supportive of everything just like all the nice comments messages I've gotten over the last four or five months. Like you guys are seriously the best.
Starting point is 01:00:26 Like we have the best community. We have the nicest fans. And I love you all. Thank you for all of the words of encouragement and prayers. It does not go unnoticed. I think I speak for everyone when we say we wish you an easy, speedy, healthy, fabulous delivery. We will all be thinking about you. We will all be thinking about you. We will all be praying for you.
Starting point is 01:00:47 I will be right next to you. Do you want me in the delivery room, by the way? We haven't even spoken about this. I think that these days you are allowed two people, but no. Please, please. Oh, my God. By the way. Literally, no.
Starting point is 01:00:58 You're already so annoying. I told you once about a mucus plug, and you're like. No, by the way, I would take it so seriously. I would be so fucking quiet. I would just be about a mucus plug and you're like no I would by the way I would take it so seriously I would be so fucking quiet I would just be like a butler to you like whatever you need and then I'll be up top and like think about it like it would be so amazing like sisterly connection we would be even closer than possible and then think about all the content we could do the con no we're not doing any fucking content no no afterwards afterwards I wouldn't take a single photo in the room I swear okay two things one I'll talk to Zach and two it will depend what time of day it is
Starting point is 01:01:29 you know because if it's yeah oh if it's the middle of the night last time I gave birth in the middle of the well by the morning but I was in labor in the middle of the night like you were sleeping yeah yeah you were in Boston I was yeah you were at a show I was I was I was? Yeah, you were at a show. I was, I was, I was. You said you think you'd go to Boston. Well, I don't have any plans for tour. I'm here. And just keep in mind, talk to Zach about it. And I just know I would be on my absolute best behavior.
Starting point is 01:01:58 I would be just seriously like a courier. You need something, I'll go get it. Yeah. We would giggle. You know what? Not even for any of reasons that I'll go get it. Yeah. We would giggle. You know what? Not even for any of reasons that, like, I couldn't handle you being there, but I don't know if you could handle it.
Starting point is 01:02:16 And if you're already, like, not looking forward to the joys of pregnancy and childbirth, like, I think it would be scarring to see me in, like, pain. Because, you know, like, if I'm complaining about the degree of pain, like what it would mean for you. But don't you think it would be so beautiful that I would be, like I'd get pregnant that night? Maybe you'd inspire me, Jax.
Starting point is 01:02:34 Maybe, but I do know you and I know that. Here's the thing. Here's the thing. Think about it. I don't want an answer right now. Just think about it.
Starting point is 01:02:40 I will think about it. I will. Cool. Talk to Zach. No brush. But just tell me what time to be there. Okay. I mean, if I knew, that would be great.
