It's Jackson, Claude and favorite show the fast five things you need to know. We'll start your day off, swirly. It's the toast. I sound amazing. Welcome back to The Toast and happy Thursday, or should I say, Jersey, because I don't know that I saw a lot of jerseys last night. Welcome to The Toast. It's your episode, Post-Nix, Post-Euphoria, and the most happenstance, the most beautiful journey, the most whimsical sort of of sequence of events.

So Jackie's out today. So I'm joined by not only my husband, not only my business partner and life partner, but the biggest Knicks fan you've ever met in your whole life and actually one of the 20,000 attendees of last night's historic NBA finals game. Hey, Ben, how you doing?

I must correct what you said. How are you doing? You said post euphoria, and I don't, I want you know, I don't know when I'll be post euphoria. I'm getting FaceTime. calls like I'm Eric Adams. No, it feels like it's literally your, um...

It's my team. Like it's your birthday. I'm the mayor. I'm James Dolan. I own the team. Last night was the worst night of my life turned greatest night of my life. I left. I left and I went into the grand concourse and got three rolls of delicious sushi, by the way.

Shout out to what they do at that stadium to have quality sushi. Okay, everybody's like, you eat, see she at the stadium? Like, yeah, it's fucking Tao. Yeah, it was really good. And it's really good. They have amazing food at the garden. But I'm stress eating. I inhaled those rolls.

We're looking at each other. We're down fucking 30. I'm like, what are we doing here? Okay, so there is a vlog coming and I am going to get it out today for Patreon. I vlog the whole experience of us trying to get tickets on Monday, getting the tickets today, the actual game, the highs, the lows, the eating. It was such a journey. We were both there last night at the garden.

It felt like seriously nothing else was going on in the world except for the Knicks game last night. There were so many celebrities in attendance, which we're going to talk about. I want to say the pre-facified banner, the stories, it's all NBA. There's not even one other story worth talking about. Oh, there's a little drama with Summer House, which we'll talk about. And I also want to talk about Jesse Solomon. But literally the world was watching last night, and we were there. And when the game started and in the first quarter and the second quarter, like genuinely like just bad basketball,

I actually could have done a better job myself. And the next were just like really getting stunted on. Victor Webbenyama was like seriously being so annoying. When I tell you, vibes were so low. They were horrible. Oh my God. And I kind of wanted to leave. I was like, do we have to stay the whole time when they're down by almost 30 points?

Like, no, right? We could have left. And I actually got, I got text. Jack texted me. He's like, please tell me you stayed. Right. Because I've left games like that. Like when you're down 30, sometimes it's just not your night.

You can't leave game four of the NBA finals, especially. Here's the thing. You can't leave the playoffs when it's like that. Like a regular game, sure. But no, by the way, nobody left. There was not one open. Because it was so early. We went down so early.

It wasn't like, okay, it's the middle of the fourth quarter. We're down 30. And it's dead. We were down 30. Literally, we blinked. Yeah. And we were down 29. Yeah.

It was really, um, it wasn't like this one moment where like everything turned around. They were just chipping away. They were down by 29 and then it was 28 and then it was 27. It was kind of fucking painful. And the whole time I was like, they're definitely going to come back and like be like, an almost, almost win, but never in my life did I think that they were actually going to win. When I tell you, I thought that the garden, like the building was going to lift up off the ground. Like people were screaming.

And Ben takes this shit so seriously. This is like the most important thing in his life. And he was literally, it was just an arena full of people like Ben. Like seriously holding their heads in shame, crying, excited. Like the emotions were so extreme. This is deep cut childhood trauma. Like people, no, no, really. People have, I'm so fortunate.

I have the greatest family, greatest parents. I don't have any of that, like, traditional, like Josh and I talk about this all the time. Like, Josh has some childhood trauma. I have trauma. I swear to God. I've been a fan my entire life. No. You don't have childhood trauma.

Yes, I do. Yes, I do. Yes, I do. Yes, I do. Yes, I do. You don't have child to trauma. Yes, I do. They are 17 and 65.

I watched every single game. The Knicks in 2015 were 17 and 65. Those were my child to trauma. Boys. Like, people get molested. Like, please. Don't even think about it. Don't even compare yourself.

Okay, you could have me make the comparison. You had to bring it dark. You had to bring it dark. You could have me. Okay, I have childhood trauma from being a Knicks fan. And let me tell you, I was healed. That's a better way to say it. I was healed last night.

Now, I want to bring it back all the way to the beginning. Okay. First and foremost, I went to game one in the NBA finals. In San Antonio. In San Antonio. I thought that was the best night in my life. Me and Scooter Braun, we were there. We were having the time of our lives.

Tyler Cameron, we were just, This was it. Let me tell you, it pales. Last night was 100 times better. Of course. It was in the garden. You were with your wife.

Hello. It was. You got to sleep in your own bed. It was completely electric. You have been, I'm sure you told them, you have been refreshing ticket master. You've been trying to get tickets.

You have been trying to get tickets. I don't want to spoil the vlog as to like how we got tickets. And yes, we did do pay transparency. We told everyone how much we paid, but you have to watch a vlog to find out. But things worked out really well for us, I would say.

Things worked out really well. and if I didn't go to San Antonio, we probably wouldn't have gone to game four. That's all I'll say. I have chills. Why do you think that? Because of who I met. Oh, it's true.

It's true. We got our plug. Our plug was met in San Antonio. Shut up, Brett. It's so true. Don't want to spoil the vlog. But Brett's kind of like a major player in the vlog. Yeah.

Brett is a major player in the vlog. Okay. So that was that first. Even though like whatever, it didn't work out. Like we didn't get them the way that we thought maybe we would get them. your effort did not go unnoticed. This whole journey was me surprising, Ben, because, like, Father's Day is coming up.

And I know, like, there's literally, the only thing you want in the world is to be at the garden. Well, I guess you're going to have to find something else. No, I can't. Well, I guess you... No, I'm going to get to get to a shirt. Yeah, by the way, I heard you last night.

No, I'll pay for them. I'll pay for them. Already. They're on my card. You're not reimbursing me and getting out on Father's Day. You're going to find something out there. They're reimbursed on my card. And that's that.

I paid for them. That's that. That's that. What are you going to get me for Father's Day? Tickets to games. If you guys watch a blog, you'll understand. When we left the stadium, like, it just kept getting better. I really, I feel like I didn't, I had, like, three sips of a cocktail.

We had to go to an event first. So I was dead sober. Like, I felt drunk. I felt like I'm on drugs. Like, I don't even remember last night. When we left the stadium, I did get, like, a little nervous. And we will talk in the stories about how, like, people in New York are acting. Really not right.

And I'm, like, feeling embarrassed to be a New Yorker. people are being so disgusting. And I'd see these videos on game one, two, and three, like the streets of New York sort of erupted, very Philly-like. And so I was getting a little nervous. We, like, ran out of the stadium. And we got in the car. And it was, besides for, like, the little panic, I felt of, like, people maybe, like, stomping our car. It was very thrilling to see, like, people from just all walks of life in the streets, like, jumping for fucking joy.

Like, it was pure joy. And Ben was one of them. Like, seriously, I'm sorry, I didn't take your shirt off. I couldn't. couldn't breathe. I think for what, for an hour. I just said, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God. Ben's And then as we walked through Penn Station, I just like, there's just like certain moments you just start to erupt. Yeah. You just like, you can't even, you can't control it. We watched the greatest game in the history of basketball. And by the way, if you're not a sports fan that night, like last night is, is what sports are about. out.

You're not a sports fan. You're obviously a pop culture fan because you're listening to this. And there were so much pop culture to be had, I will say. Half my vlog is just me zooming in on Taylor Swift. I would say we were probably like 25 rows up from Taylor herself. And it was thrilling. Taylor was there. Kylie was there.

All the usuals of course, like Jimmy Fallantina Faye, Tracy Morgan, Ben Stiller, the whole like New York crew. Timmy. Timmy C. But did I say that? No. He said Kylie. Well, that's the same thing.

And then like they had announced that Taylor was coming. I didn't know if it was actually going to be true, but she did come. she came with Hame and Mariska Hargitay. It was insane. Like, it was so crazy. It felt like the entire stadium was watching her. Like, everything stopped when she walked in. Like, I didn't know she walked in, but I felt a shift in the vibes before the game started.

And I was like, oh, Taylor's here. And I just zoomed in. I was using my phone to, like, be a magnifying glass. I zoomed in. I saw her. It was, it was so crazy. Of course, like, so many pop culture crossovers, which we'll talk about. It was just like, not to make everything about me, but I can't believe that I was there.

I feel like if I was watching from home, I would have had so much FOMO. I said this last night, and I know that you, like, think I'm really dramatic and, like, you don't agree with me. You don't agree with me. I think I might be dead. Ben was like, are we dead?

I'm dead. I'm dead and I'm in heaven. Otherwise, none of this makes sense. You're telling me, we go to a Knicks game, okay? We go to a Knicks game with Taylor Swift. Okay? The Knicks amounted a 29-point comeback. This doesn't happen to the Knicks.

It doesn't happen to... It's true. This doesn't happen to the Knicks. Now, who do you think played the best? Like, obviously, OG, right? Like, he's, like, the MVP of the night. OG's the MVP of the night, but as I watched it back, Brunton did his thing. He helped us chip away.

But, yeah, this was- OG's night. They said OG barely played in the second half and he had 31 points. Like, that's insane. He had 33 points on 15 shots, which is an unbelievable ratio. Mm-hmm. Okay? And he has, Brian Windhorst said this, who, I have.

hate, by the way. He's like an NBA commentator. I hate him. He's terrible. He's terrible that he said OG has two statues if the Knicks win the finals. On the same play. I literally heard of the same play. I'm sorry that you heard a private FaceTime with Pete Alonzo. I just want to say, Ben

I'm not allowed to regurgitate from a private conversation. Ben is Lady Gaga. There could be 100 people in a room. Like I've heard you say this. OG has two statues. He does. 100 people in a room. He has... O.G. has two statues. The Chase Down Block on Deerrin Fox. and then the fucking tip-in.

And let's talk about that tip-in. Jalen Brunson shot that ball with six seconds left over Wemby, which took Wemby out of the paint. So O.G. could crash and get that tip in. If Wemby's there, he can't get that tip in. You can't get that tip in. No, no. He obviously tried to make it.

Okay, I didn't know. Kind of like a dumb question. Yeah, he tried to miss it on purpose when they're down one. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That was dumb. I'm sorry. Do you think that the Knicks win the championship? Is there any world in which the spurs come back from 3-1?

2-1 maybe. It's never been done. All I'm going to say is one game at a time. I have seen these Knicks do crazy. Do the impossible. The Knicks are, that's the thing. We talk about this all the time. You never want to be lucky like that.

Because luck swings both ways. To come back from 29 points, we could lose the whole, we could lose the series. That said, Mike Brown put it nicely. He said, he said, you got to make. your own luck. That's so chill. You got to put yourself out there. You got to give yourself a chance

to be lucky. Okay? Be lucky. Luck be a lady. Tonight. So if you had it your way, would you prefer like that they win in five? Yes, five done.

Go win on the road. Five in San Antonio or six in New York. I don't want to go to another fucking game. I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired. Okay. I'm going to bed at one o'clock in the morning every night. I'm waking up. Thank God you let me sleep.

I did. Oh my God. That was. We went to bed at like one. 30. The last time I mentioned, I didn't even go to 1.30 on New Year's. Like, this is insane. Oh, by the way, let me sleep. I woke up at a quarter to eight. Like, it really is. That's like, that's like noon for a parent. No, I know. But it's like these games, why are they starting? Starting at 8.30. Just start at 7.30. Who gives a shit about Los Angeles? It's a real problem. I agree.

Oh, because you're not home from work. You can't watch the Knicks and the Spurs. You don't even care. I agree. You live on the West Coast. Prioritize the fans. Yeah, 730 game time would be lovely. I want to say that last night they also had the anthem sung by the same person who was amazing on Monday, which I love. I talked about him extensively on the toast. His name is Avery Wilson. He's from the whiz. He was incredible, but it's kind of crazy to have two back-to-back performances. I bet you they just like, they were like, we don't want somebody that could maybe fuck up and we know he's amazing.

And he's down. You have people sing it every single game. You're so right. I thought that was strange. I thought it was weird too. And I'm not complaining because he was stellar. Yeah. And shout out to the NYPD for keeping everyone save.

I saw them putting on like their helmets and the like the SWAT uniforms to like go. They were walking towards the garden as everyone was walking away from it because I'm sure like riots were starting. And yeah, part of me wants them to win in San Antonio too just to like minimize damage done in New York. Like people are so crazy. Can we talk about that for a second? No, that's one of the stories I want to talk about. Okay. So the whole episode.

Because we don't claim these people. The whole episode is going to be very basketball coded. And like it's just hard because I drink a lot of beer and I watch a lot of sports. And so like, yeah, my podcast, like I talk about my interest, which are sports. How, by the way, you're a big, you're a big beer drinker. Can we talk about how grab a slice this is? It's really grab a slice. I'm so chill.

It's actually, it's actually not grab a slice because that was the greatest, you went to the greatest game in the history of sports. I know, but you went to, the grab a slice thing when we were like 16. You wanted like a girlfriend at the time wife who was just like chill and like grabbed a slice and like that's so beer watching sports. And like that's who I am now. Like, you just watch sports and talk about it.

Okay. That's not you going to game four of the NBA finals. I'm so fucking grab a slice. You literally went to the, it was the greatest ticket in the history of sports. Which is so grab a slice. Like, and I just didn't even care.

You grab a slice. I felt like I was so chill the whole time too. You're grab a slice, which is why we drove to the garden. Instead of taking the subway and why we parked. We're so grab a slice. Like, I'm so chill.

That's insane. Okay. I'm so chill. Yeah, you're pretty chill. You agree? You're pretty chill. You waited for,

we sat in traffic for an hour. Actually, it was really 20 minutes. I'm obsessed with the fact that you think we drove to the garden because of me. When it was actually my idea to take the subway at mahjong yesterday. It was your idea. And then you, and then you switched it.

It was your idea to take the subway. And then was your idea to drive. And then you got invited to an event, a restaurant opening that we had to go to before. Shout out Avenue. The new avenue in New York. So we had to drive. And that was like, you're doing. I don't even know what the fuck you're talking about.

I didn't, I didn't make us drive, though. You did. Okay. You absolutely did. You know that you're like, your memories. Your memory is questionable. By the way, collective. Yesterday is not memory.

By the way, collectively. We have very questionable memories. Why? I don't know. I just feel like you make stuff up. I don't make stuff up. Like I'm telling the truth. Okay, you make everything up. Don't put that on me. Okay, you make everything up. Well, the place looks great.

It always does. And I think we should dive into our very sports, beer drinking, coated, fast five stories that you need to know. And the fast five stories that you need to know are brought to you by Love Island, UK. Can I plead for a chat? Good. Because I need to tell you that Love Island UK is back.

Today's episode is also brought to you by Got to Be. Lock your look in with the travel-friendly, got-to-be-wax-stick. Use it for everyday hair-slick styles, gym sessions, travel touchups, or polished looks for nights out in special occasions.

Got to be is an OG hair care brand. Let me tell you, I had that in my house growing up. And their wax stick, I feel like everyone's looking for a good wax stick for their slick back looks, especially in the summer when you're not wanting to wash your hair because they're just like swimming and being a water sign. And the Got to be wax stick is great. A lot of times wax sticks are either ineffective or they're so effective that you shower and you still have wax in your hair. The Got to B one is so easy to use. It's so portable. It locks out humidity. It tames frizzy hair to keep style sleek and smooth no matter what the day brings. So the sweat, and flake resistant formula applies without the white cast and washes out early.

It comes in a very easy to use twistable packaging. So to apply, you partition your hair, apply the wax stick on the hair line to add texture to your hair. Style your hair in a sleek bun or a ponytail and then apply the wax stick again to tame final flyaways. So even if you're not doing like a slick look, it's so good to have the wax stick for flyaways. If you have got that postpartum hair regrowth, you know. And the product is pargy.

It contains coconut oil, castor oil, and shay butter. And Got To Be is just a hallmark brand when it comes to hair care. I think we've all probably used different serums, hairsprays from them for a while, and their wax stick is no different. It is the best of the best. A little pro tip, if you're using the wax stick, is to take a thick brush and use it with the product

for a very sleek look. And if you just want to be slick and sleek and slacken everywhere, be slick with the got to be wax stick. Visit got to be. us for more information. That's g-ot-2-b.us. Today's episode is also brought to you by Old Navy. So thank you, Old Navy, for being as part of today's episode, whether you're refreshing your summer wardrobe

or stocking up on styles that'll take you into fall. Old Navy has the perfect denim picks for you. So if you've been wanting to try a new denim fit, Old Navy's wow denim is a perfect excuse. It won't break the bank. It's available in almost every style from high-rise wide leg to mid-rise baggy,

boot cut and more. So you can say yes to something new without overthinking it. And the best part is that these styles carry you all the way into fall. I think I love about Old Navy is their price points because I don't know who needs to hear this

because at one point last week I was the person who needed to hear this, but like just buy pants in your own size. like don't squeeze into pants that don't fit and then wear pants that are too baggy. Like just buy a pair of pants in your own size. And like when you fluctuate as much as I do, like it's important to have multiple sizes. And obviously that can add up. And Old Navy is a great option because their styles are amazing. They're super versatile.

They're really cute. They're also at a great price point. You can chop all these denim styles in store or online at Old Navy.com. That's OLDN-A-V-Y.com. Thank you, Old Navy, for sponsoring today's episode. Oh, not closing my iPad because I'm doing the stories. Okay. So much to talk about.

So our first story is going to be sort of like NBA subset. Taylor Swift. Great. Taylor went to the game. Yes, she did. She was there with Hame, the two sisters, and then she got seeded. Because I watched the whole thing. So she didn't come with Mariska.

Mariska was there, of course. You know, Mariska and Jalen Brunson are like best friends. Did you see when the Knicks won, Mariska Hargatay stormed the... Yes. She stormed the Capitol. She stormed the court, and she ran into Rick Brunson's arms. You're lying. Can you explain like Rick Brunson?

So Jalen Brunson's dad is like a coach on the Knicks? Jalen Brunson's dad was also an NBA player for the New York Knicks during 1999 when they played and lost to the Spurs. Oh, wait. Rick Brunson. The last time the Knicks were in the NBA finals, they lost and it was 1990. They lost in five to the Spurs in 1999. I didn't realize it was to the Spurs. I've chill.

Yeah, and there were so many parallels. Remember Tim Duncan, who's now like a Hall of Famer for the Spurs? Yeah, of course. He was on the Spurs. He was 22. A Victor Webbingy. you're saying. Victor Weniam. There were so many of those parallels.

Rick Brunson, player, NBA. And now he's a coach. And now he's a coach for the Knicks. That's so cute. He's been coaching Jaylen his whole life. Yeah, it's amazing. The whole thing is amazing.

Yeah. So Taylor was there. Mariska showed up in a different shirt. And then they obviously made a shirt for Mariska. So I don't know if you saw Taylor was wearing like a blue shirt that looked like it had like the word Nix on it.

But he actually said Stevie Nix. Yes. Which was really cute. One of the Hame sisters was wearing the same thing. They obviously like did this like DIY project because one of the other sisters was wearing Nick Colciss, Nicole Kidman. Oh.

And I just want to say that one was dumb. I didn't like that one. They all should have been wearing Stevie Nicks because it's Stevie Nicks. Yes. And Taylor's like best friends with Stevie Nix. So I really liked the wardrobe. I didn't like Nick Cole Kidman.

Oh, no, one of them was also wearing one that said, Nicklback. That's cute. No, like it. The Stevie Nix one was the best one. The other ones were silly. Kylie and Timothy were wearing matching Chrome Hearts. Okay, sorry, I'm getting off.

So Taylor was there, but you think it's really crazy that, and Taylor is like an OG Nick fan. She actually has like deep roots. in Nick Fandom. She's not like a bandwagoner. So it's crazy that she went to the Cleveland game with Travis. Now, she didn't wear Cleveland outfits.

She didn't wear Nick's outfits. But she was obviously there like supporting the calves, right? No. No, no, I do know. So you're telling me, you know, for 100,

with 100% certainty she was not wearing anything Cleveland Cavalier related. During that game. Is she wearing red? What color are the Cavaliers? Red. She was wearing maroon. Oh, maroon is their color.

color. Taylor Swift. Because this would be a problem. Yeah. And then I, and then I can explain. Okay. She, no, no. She did not wear maroon. She wore black and jeans. Okay. She did not wear one ounce. Okay. Actually, her jeans are blue. Okay. And Travis wore all denim. Sure. And a red calves hat. Sure. Okay. Taylor Swift is a Nick fan. I know for a fact, uh, during game one, I actually sat next to a lovely gentleman who was seated first row, but they wouldn't let him wear his Knicks jersey. And so he, instead of taking it off, he got a worse seat. Okay, that's dumb.

I just want to say. I'm look, I was looking right across at Shane Gillis, Shane Gillis, diehard Nick Van. Yeah. No, no, no, these are two separate people. Oh, okay, you're being confusing. No, I'm not. So you're saying Shane Gillis took the seat and took off the jersey. He just wasn't wearing anything.

Yeah, you can't at an away game. You can't wear the opposing team. You can't wear a court side seat. Correct. And I learned last night, actually, that courtside seats for the most part, like you really can't buy the garden at least. I don't know if this is for every stadium for the most part.

Like a couple of people have season tickets like Spike Lee. But for the most part, you can't even buy them. Like they're given away at the discretion of the garden to Jimmy Fallon to I'm sure like important business people. So yeah, they can be strict with the rules. And I'm sure others. Because you're being invited and you're probably not paying. Yeah, that's the thing, celebrities, unless, like, Spike Lee has season tickets.

But all the other celebrities, like, don't pay. No, there's, it's probably like 50-50. I think a lot of it's corporate, right? Yeah, right, right, right. Like, you know, like that's why random. White Waterhouse Cooper. Sure, sure, sure, sure. Yeah, Taylor Swift is a Nick Finn.

If she went to the Cavs game and didn't wear anything related to the Cavs, last night I saw everything that I needed to see. She was jumping for joy. She stayed the whole time. She did not stay the whole time at the Cavs game. I mean, anybody would be jumping. for joy last night. That doesn't like, that's not it.

She was also drunk, which I like love that she's like, she gets drunk. I saw her, it's in my vlog. I was like filming her the whole time, like a true stalker. The guy next, the guy next to me was fucking drunk last night.

And let me tell you, okay, nice kid, nice kid, whatever, I'm being nice. You turn to me at one point, you're like,

are you burping? This fucking kid, nonstop, he must have like 15 beers. Hot dog. Hot dog. I was, I was in his mouth.

Yeah, I was in his mouth. And then, by the way, with like nine seconds left, You saw, hey, let's take a quick selfie. I'm in the middle. We're in the middle of a comeback. Okay?

And he kept asking me. He kept asking me in the fourth quarter. I don't know if you had her. Man, how famous are you? Man, man, have famous are you? We need a selfie. We need a selfie. My ex-girlfriend loved you.

She loved the toes. Oh, man, she'd be so upset. All of this. I had no idea. Oh, man, she'd be so upset. But I don't care. I don't care. I'm here with you.

He was blackout. He was blackout. He was so nice. There were a lot of people there alone, which was nice because, like, no one's alone. You're never alone when you're with Brenson. You're never alone when you're with the Knicks. It's true. Once a Nick, always a Nick. So a couple of things about Taylor's presence there. One just interesting to see how like so many people interact with her. One of those people

being Kylie Jenner. So I don't know if you know you. Taylor's just like whenever she goes anywhere, it's like landmines. She has so many like feuds or whatever. One of them is of course with the Kardashians. Kanye and Kim, the whole song, you know the letter, the lyric. You know the saga? Yeah, but like I have to assume that now that Kanye is fucking crazy, that the Kardashians and her have no beef. Well, so Kim, like when Kim is asked about it, she always says like, we're good, we're good, we're good. But it's like Kim is the one who did it to Taylor. It's not like on Kim to forgive. It's on Taylor.

Sure. And let me tell you, Taylor does not forgive and she does not forget. She wrote like a whole reputation album about it. She still writes a song. Short a song called Thank you Amy, where the K, the I and the M are all capitalized. Like she fucking hates Kim. Oh. So Kylie was there.

And now let me tell you, because I was sitting behind them so I could see. They were in the same row, but they were like pretty far. Like, and especially for coming and going during like halftime and stuff, they were using different sides. So they could have gotten away with not saying hello, not hugging, but they did. When everybody stormed to the court, there's this video that like they're in really close quarters and they both like turn and see each other. So they're like, hi. And they hug and Kylie was like, that was crazy. Yeah, I saw.

Kylie's eyes. Like, I just know Kylie's shitting her pants. Like, because the thing is, it's been grossly inconvenient. for the Kardashians, like, to be beefing with Taylor Swift. They have so many kids who are girls around the age of, like, Taylor Swift fans. Like, I'm sure that they all wanted to go to the Eres tour. I'm sure that they can't escape the music. Kylie is Stormy's, like, five or six years old.

Like, six-year-olds fucking love Taylor Swift. I'm sure they're going to see Toy Story and the new Toy Story movies all Taylor Swift. Like, I imagine it's been really annoying. But, like, Taylor hates them for sure, but she was such a queen. Like, Taylor's so famous now that, like, a lot of her feuds are sort of not even worth her time. Sure. Like, it's beneath her to even care.

Sure. She's literally, like, more famous. Like, she's just, that's why someone at Majong yesterday was like, why do people care so much about this wedding? And I'm like, because it's really the closest thing we have to a royal wedding here in America. So, yeah, she's on such a different level. I don't even know who to compare her to fame-wise, like the Beatles. That's why it's so unbelievable that the Knicks did that last night. I know.

Did you think they get nervous when they see her? Yeah. I think that's exactly why they lost game three. She wasn't there. No. Trump's in the, Trump's in the, Trump's. in the building. No, but he's all the way up there.

Like, they barely even know. It doesn't. Like, he's just like a face of a crowd. She's right there. She had probably the best seat in the whole arena. She's at the half court line on the wood. Like, I imagine it's actually quite jarring. She is this.

That's what I mean when I said, like when she walked in, like, the vibes changed in the whole arena. Like, she is this presence. Yeah, it was crazy. I wonder if any of them, you know, where do they, like, where do they stream the press conference afterwards? Like, I keep seeing clips, but like, I would like to watch. On the exact, on the channel.

Oh, really? Yeah, like right after they have post-game interviews. You're kidding. No, like right there. Like, you didn't have to change the channel. I'm cracking up. It's not like hidden from you. Oh, I thought it was like, yeah, like an industry thing.

Okay. But I'm sure that Janelyn Brunson is a big Taylor Swift fan because I'm sure that Allie Brunson is a big Taylor Swift thing. 100%. Like there's no. She's very swirly. Like she's got that swirl too. Yes, 100%.

So I'm sure that they were freaking out. I'm sure Josh Hart was. I'm sure that they were so excited that she was there. They are so used to having A list, but she really is. She is another level. More so than even like the Lakers, I think that their front row is like the most insane A-list. So yes, I think to a degree they're sort of used to it. I think they're sort of used to it too.

But like if I was in the press conference, which like seriously, get me a fucking press pass. Like I want to ask like, what did you guys feel when you saw Taylor Swift? Kylie looked insane. She wore a matching chrome hearts like denim Luke with Timothy. And this video of them hugging. Like I could probably watch for two hours and like keep seeing new parts of it. Like it's just, I'm watching it right now. It's insane.

and like Taraji P. Henson in the background. That was also the crazy thing. It was like everyone was trying to get tickets to this game. It was like the great equalizer. Like huge celebrities were like in the fifth, six row. Like it was insane. And that just shows you that celebrities don't pay for tickets.

Right. Because there's a finite number of tickets in the front row. And if you wanted to go and you wanted free tickets, then they're going to sit you in the first six rows. Yeah. Last night's game though, people slept on it. Ticket prices dropped.

They did. They dropped significantly. I'm not saying that they dropped into a place. where it was affordable, but they dropped. You could have entered the garden at three grand. And last week it was 10, 12. Everybody blew their load on game three. And everyone, them losing game three took a lot of the, I think, like wind out from

it's not even that. I was in, I was in the elevator this morning with a guy going to work wearing his next jersey. I saw him. Everyone is wearing their next outfits. And I said to him, like, he's like, what a game. I'm like, yeah, I was there. He's like, oh my God, I have tickets to game six.

What I didn't want to tell him is, I don't know if you're going to be going to again six. But it's so hard to say if you have one pot of money, are you going to go. Which one do you go to? You probably want to go to the one that you think is going to be a closeout. Yeah. But let me tell you, I really think that was our closeout. I don't know how you go to San Antonio and lose.

Yeah. Like that was, it does not get better than last night. Yeah. It doesn't. It doesn't get better than last night. A little bit more Taylor Swift drama, which is like seriously cracking me up. I saw this on Twitter this morning. And I get got by like so much AI content, like so much fake.

like celebrity posted this and I thought for sure Selena Gomez's Instagram story was fake. But one thing about Selena Gomez is like she's not of this world. She's the craziest bitch on the planet and she did write this Instagram story. Okay. So fans are confused by Selena Gomez's very cryptic comment under a picture of Taylor Swift at the next game and people don't know what to make of it. So everyone was at the garden last night. The way BuzzFeed writes stories like, girl, just tell us. So Selena's posting.

Was that thing that I saw? Okay. Sorry. Yeah. All right. So she posted an Instagram story calling out people who have become sudden fans of the Knicks. So she posted like a NBA website screenshot, a historic comeback. And then her little comment is mad respect for the game.

Okay. Congrats to the peeps that represent. What does that mean? What a comeback. So funny how some of y'all, how some are all the sudden fans, though, L.O. So people think that maybe this had something to do with Taylor being there with, you know, friends and having like her girl gang moment and Selena's not there. Wait, aren't they friends? Yes.

Yeah, so that's not what it is. Really? Yeah, people want to start beef. And then, wait, and then MTV posted like a carousel of pictures of like Taylor and her girls being like, you know, swirly at the game. And Selena Gomez commented, L.O.L. Oh, that's weird. Yeah, no, I'm telling you. Like, first of all, Selena Gomez is crazy.

She's a massive Spurs fan because she is. from Texas. So she was documenting herself, like, watching the game. She's in London at 3 a.m. on her phone being like, yeah, I'm watching. Then, yeah, MTV posted Mariska, Taylor, and like the girlies. And Selena commented just simply L-O-L. The truth is, to, I don't wish on my worst enemy to be a Spurs fan last night. So some people think Selena was just like lolling at Taylor's funny t-shirt. Others assumed it was like a playful team rivalry. She spurs their necks. However, some people think that the cryptic comment may have something to do with an Instagram story that Selena apparently posted and deleted after the spurs loss,

which is so funny how some of y'all are all the sudden fans, though. Hmm. Like this is something Selena would do. Her social media is, she's actually been quite... You know this better than me. She's been good for like a few years, but she's always posting like the craziest thing. I'm taking a break and then she comes back 30 seconds later and starts drama. Like, she's really, like, deeply unwell.

So I could see this, but her and Taylor are tried and fucking true. But the good thing is is that we have this litmus test coming up. for Taylor's wedding of like who's in Taylor's life like who was a real friend who was a real colleague who was a real acquaintance because it's in a thousand person wedding so she's being quite generous with the invitations and like if you're not there you're not there yeah so so if Celine is there like we're good if Celine is not I thought they were like aren't they like best friends like a decades long friendship yeah so I don't I don't know how Taylor's friends with her though she seems so crazy I don't think that this has anything to do with that I think that

I think that this has at least the first comment. Yeah, there are a lot of bandwagon nick fans. I don't give a shit. Yeah, I want to talk about that. That shit pisses me off people like gatekeeping the Knicks. Like, it's cool that like, even if you don't live here, it's so exciting. Like, people wanting to be a part of it going to bars, every bar and restaurant. It's like, it's so fun.

And we want that sort of fanfare. It's not like, it's really truly the more the merrier. I know that makes it harder to get tickets and stuff. But like, it is annoying when people are like, well, you're a transplant or like, you haven't lived here that long. Or like, oh, you're just now. It's like, girl, shut up. By the way, it doesn't make it harder to get Nick tickets.

Okay, that's like... It's hard already, it's always going to be hard. There aren't enough seats for Nick fans. There isn't enough money. Like, the tickets are too expensive. That's a totally separate story. These new Nick fans are not coming up to old Nick fans claiming that they're bigger Nick fans.

They're just also Nick fans. They're just gatekeeping. They're just gaiting. They're also just rooting for the team. They're gatekeeping. So, yeah, I have no issue with new Nick fans. Like, there was a time where... There was a time where...

I'm crying. You are on one. Am I? Sorry. Am I? Um, there is no issue at all with being a new Nick fan. It used to be embarrassing to be a Nick fan.

Right. Like it used to be like, if you were a Nick fan, you were a loser. If you weren't here for the Raymond Felton era, like you don't know. Oh, so you're geekkeeping.

Because yeah, because yeah, they were so bad. No one else I found interesting. There were so many celebrities there last night. Like they did this roundup. They obviously went to every celebrity and like had them wave at the camera.

But, um, so there was all those courtside. seats, but there were like two sweets full of celebrities. And I found it really interesting, like, who the Garden cheered for. Because it kept showing everyone. It's like, they showed Jerry Seinfeld and everybody went wild, like the classic people. Then they showed Ben Padgley and Pen Badgley and Nina Dobrev.

And let me tell you, like, not one person cheered. Yeah. They showed like Tate McCray and Haley Bieber. Like there were some cheers. But like it's very interesting, like who's so New York. Like the people in the audience, like they don't give a fuck about certain people. Like who otherwise are extremely famous. Kevin Jonas was there.

Kiki Palmer was there. There were so many, of course, Liam Neeson, like the New York people, like Edie Falco, who plays soprano, the wife. What's her name? Carmine? Yeah. Carma. No.

Carmel. Carmel. Carmel. Carmel. Carmel. Carmel. Wait. Wait, wait.

Wait. I think Carmel. Yeah. I think so. Soprano. Carmella soprano. And then like the other guy from the sopranos, they were sitting together, who's also from Blue Bloods, Anthony something.

He's like, they got the loudest cheers. And they're not like the most famous or like the most of the moment. It was just very interesting who got. who got like the craziest cheers. Yeah, I'm trying to think who were they definitely silent for? Besides Penn, there was another one, wasn't there? Yeah. Who was it?

I felt bad. Amy Schumer. Oh, yeah. Like, that chip pisses me off. Why would they boo her? Because she's like a Zionist. Is that what it is? Yeah, it's really upsetting because like, that's my queen right there.

So I'm going to say that I think Selena Gomez was starting stuff. But I guess we'll see if she's at the wedding, like then that's that on that. Agreed. That's kind of what's exciting about this wedding. I feel like, um, I do still hold like one candle of hope that like this whole Taylor Swift like lively like feud is fake. Although I'm pretty sure it's not. And if she was at the wedding, I just think that would be like a really big site.

You know they say Taylor's getting married at the garden. Yes. I don't know why she would be getting married at the garden. Because it's so private. There's no windows. You can't fly a drone over like it's literally. And it's a thousand person wedding. And I think they want to get married in New York City for some reason.

So it's like where can you own a thousand person wedding in the city? That's so private. It's kind of an inspired choice. I guess that you could with unlimited money make it not look like the garden. Well, yeah, I think a lot of people are like, what? She's going to have like an altar in front of a basketball hoop. No, they're going to like tent. You're not even going to see.

It's not going to look like a stadium. Like when you have unlimited money, like, you're right. They were, they removed the seats. Like you walk inside a tent and it looks like there's like drapery. They're going to do that like time. If that's where it is. That makes sense. I also just don't know if like they're saying it's MSHU July 3rd.

Like I just don't think you would know. But that does, it does make more sense at first. I was like, she's getting married on the next court. Yeah, right. But like, no, you remove the court. You remove all of the court side seats. All of a sudden, you just have this big, uh,

blank canvas. 20, 30,000 square foot area to just build tents and I think it's kind of. And like no one can get a picture. And to your pointing crazy security, crazy security. I mean, look how many people were there last night. They had the president on Monday. Like they're equipped. They're equipped.

They're equipped. They're equipped. You're right. You're right. I know. It actually does. It makes a little sense. It does.

It makes a little sense. And the drone thing is very interesting. Yeah. You can fly a drone anywhere if it's outside. Right. Not inside. Yeah, it's kind of brilliant. It is kind of brilliant.

What's our next story? Let me, I'll do one more next story. And then we'll move on to like other topics of discussion, unfortunately. So the last thing I wanted to talk about is this video that's going viral of Victor Webbingyama getting pelted with eggs after the next game. So, Victor Webbingyama is the star of the other team. He's 22 years old and he's like 6-8. He's like this.

He's 7-4. Okay, cool. And I think what's, like, there are a lot of really tall players, but what's really special about him is, like, if you're really tall sometimes, like, you're not very coordinated because it takes a long time for, like, your brain to tell your arm to do something. So he's, like, very, very coordinated.

And he's just, like, definitely going to be, he's been in the league, what, for one year? Yeah, he's going to be a great. He's going to be, like, a legend. He's 22, so he's still, like, really young, and he's French, which I just thought was interesting. And everyone in New York hates him. And I will say, like, some of the Knicks fans were pissing

off last night because it's like, Victor Webighama gets no calls. Victor Remeniyama plays dirty and it's like... By the way, Victor Vuanbenyama does play dirty. He does, but like a lot of the, you and like your friends around you,

like the new friends that you made, we're like, that's a fucking foul. It is. It is a big arm. Like, no, no, no, no. Not everything is a conspiracy.

No, no, no, no. It's real. It's real. You can watch the highlights, the refs were terrible. That said, you said that he's from France. Is he not? He is.

He played pro basketball in France. Okay. They played dirty overseas. That's a fact. This is a different brand of basketball, and he is playing an overseas brand of basketball where you pull jerseys, where you elbow people,

where you are honestly a piece of shit. Like, he really is, he is so dirty, and to be seven, four, and so dirty. That being said, the same way that you said that we have these Fair Weather Nick fans that are in,

and all of a sudden, everybody's a Nick fan, let me tell you, we do not claim for one second the person who pelted him with eggs. We do not claim the Nick fan who beat up the Spurs fan, apparently.

And we certainly Do not claim the Knicks fans in the streets that are destroying property, breaking taxi caps. I've never seen anything like it. And they are not Nick fans. Yeah. They are just bulligans in disguise who love chaos.

Yeah. That's it. The video of him getting pelted with eggs is so wrong. So I guess, and maybe this is not a thing at like every other city. But like because it's in New York City when like they get on their bus, they go to their hotel. When they walk from the bus to the hotel, there's like barricades of fans. Kind of like when Taylor walks to her apartment.

Whereas like I think maybe if you were in, like a more suburban town, it wouldn't be like that, like a million fans waiting for you by your hotel. Like, no, it also, you would get a little bit of privacy, but because it's the city, you don't? I really don't know. I, I was surprised to see that he was out in the street and not like going in like a back entrance to somewhere. I think that they can't, but like if you were playing in like the middle of Texas, you can

like pull into a garage, you know? Yeah, I don't know why they didn't fly home. So there were a lot of fans like waiting there, of course, like booing, whatever. And then somebody threw an egg at him. Like, I just think like that's really fucked up. And it's like, it's, yeah. And then I saw the video of everybody like, stop. on a cab like stop like that's not that's not the vibe but we by the way you saying stop we

don't they're these people are nowhere in our orbit I know but these are not where's at your city and your team no no they don't they're they're transplants that are now I know oh now they're transplants now I know how the Philly fans felt when everybody like was calling them like you know domestic terrorists like you know what you're right it's interesting it's interesting because I was saying that and I can confidently say that about Philly fans in general but like you wouldn't say about New York fans, right? I can confidently say that these are not Nick fans. So if in order for you to believe me, I need to say confidently that those are not Philly

fans, okay. Then they're not Philly fans. I think that they're an egg at him. Like, that's seriously so mean. And he's 22. I like, you know, I can't really watch too much sports as like a boy mom because I'm like very empathetic. And I was really starting to feel bad for Wembe Nama.

Like it's a lot of pressure on him. And he's very talented like skill wise. But I think because he's only 22, he lacks like a little bit of like a maturity and emotional intelligence. That's the whole team. The whole team is unbelievable and 22 years old. So, like, they lack the sort of, like, emotional strength versus the physical strength. And it just, like, was really starting to feel bad for him.

Like, everybody was booing him. And, like, the arena kept cheering like, fuck you, Wemby. And it's like, he's just playing for his team. Like, if he was playing for your guys' team, you would love everything that he was doing. No, let me just make sure that I made this point very crystal clear. Okay? Wembe is such an unbelievably dirty player. Unbelievably dirty.

That said, it stays on the court. You do not throw eggs at somebody. You do not curse at somebody in person. They stay on the court. You're watching a basketball game. You're rooting for your team hard. The second that that game is over, he's a human.

He's a human. He's a fierce competitor. I think he's incredibly dirty. I'm not a fan of his. I'm not a fan at all. I'll probably hate him forever. He's one of those. Like, I just...

What if he ever came to play for the Knicks? You would love him. He'll never come to play for the next. He'll never leave San Antonio. This is like their generational decades long. This is their guy. He will retire a spur. Oh, wow, really?

Yeah, that's it. They will never let him go. This was our final. story about the Knicks. So like we are going to move on to talk about like why what the fuck else is going on? Just like a couple of other things like what if there's anything else you want to say I love the Knicks. Okay.

I love O.G. Anobie. I love Jalen Brunson. I love Josh Hart. I love Carl Anthony Towns. I love Jose Alvarado. Let me tell you I love that Mitchell Robinson. I love Mitchell Robinson. But like he's got to like learn how to shoot like I love Mikhail Bridges.

Yeah. Also I hope that OG Ananobe has like a beautiful woman at home who takes care of. of him. Like, I don't know. Whenever I see him, I always think, like, I hope you have a wife. I don't know anything about him personally. I think he does. By the way, shout out Canada for bringing us the Toronto native in O.G. Ananovi, who just seems sweet as sugar. I agree. His disposition. It's very chill. He's very chill. And he is so fucking good. Yeah. The Nix. This was me last night. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. All right, I'm doing one loud one. Oh, my God. Let's go Nix.

Okay, we can stop. It was genuinely humiliating. Like, it was so crazy. No, me in Penn Station, like, oh, I gave so many hugs to cops. We were just, like, dapping each other up, walking around. We weren't in Penn Station. You keep saying that. We were in Moynihan Station across the street.

Because one thing I mean, I love a sweet treat. And I like a sweet frozen treat year round. But in the summer, especially with summer coming up, it's so important to have Outshine fruit bars, like stacked in your freezer. So you probably know Outshine, their core memory of your childhood. They have so many delicious flavors,

whether it's their fruit bars, the mini fruit pops. It's a refreshing snack. Most of their bars are around 60 calories. The mini fruit packs come in a variety of fruit flavors that are less than 40 calories each. So you can feel good, look good, tastes good. Also, like, the variety packs are just so fun. Like, which flavor should I try today? They also have, like, their swirly flavors, which is a fruit blend. It combines two or more

fruit flavors swirled into one bar to create worlds of yum. So think cherry limeade, pinia collata, tropical breeze, and now blueberry lemonade. It's also an amazing snack just to have that the kids love, too. It's, like, fun and frozen. It's like so summer. It's so Americana. It's just, like, very aesthetic as well for your pictures. They've got the frozen fruit bars. They've just got so many different options. They make snacking really easy. There's no slicing and dicing, no mess. You're just getting real fruit and fruit juice transformed into freshing bars that taste like you're biting into a ripe, juicy piece of fruit. It's snacking made easy, and you can find the Outshine fruit bars and the mini fruit pops in the freezer aisle and at retailers nationwide. Big fan of OutChine over here.

Don't you feel like supper? It's like Outchine season is upon us. Does you find? Oh yeah. I love Outchan. Delicious. Okay. Our next story, totally switching gears, but it does still apply to you because I want you to share like a super fun fact about yourself. But Jesse Solomon made a lot of news yesterday because he posted in his Instagram what he believes to be his complete timeline of the West Wilson and Amanda Batula romance.

So we saw part three, the final part of the reunion on Tuesday and everyone was just pretty much left saying like we have no clarity, you can't get your dates right, when did this happen, who, when, where, why, how? Like it was really not a resolution-filled reunion.

Everyone was left with more questions than ever. Sure. So Jesse Solomon took it upon him, himself to use his platform to share what he believes to be his timeline. So he said, that's a wrap on the reunion. Thanks for having me. Time to lock in on my music. And he did a carousel pictures of Watch What Happens Live and him and Andy, Jesse Solomon

with the camera. And then this screenshot of what he says is the timeline. It spans from February 10th to March 23rd. On February 10th, I won't read you the whole thing. You can check out his Instagram. He thinks that like that's where he, that's where it starts for him. West and Amanda go to dinner in Miami. him, West and Amanda are all in Miami together,

and they go to dinner by themselves and don't invite me. Then it ends on March 31st where he shares the news dropping, confirms everything, he calls out West for lying. I ask West, and you know what, I'm actually glad that he did this because I know that West is not like a main character in this. It's like Kyle Amanda, Sierra, and West.

But he was crying the entire reunion. He's very emotional guy. I think that him and West had a real friendship. And he didn't get anything from West. Nobody did, but he got nothing. And I think he was really expecting, like, a moment with West or a cry, and he got nothing. So, like, of all the people I want to hear from, yeah, like, Jesse Solomon is one of them. And you know what?

Like, fun fact, Ben's having dinner with Jesse Solomon tonight. I am. We've never met. I'm excited for dinner. We're definitely not going to talk about any of this. Oh, you think? Yeah. I think, no, I think that he's just, I would hope, just like a real nice, normal Jewish guy.

Well, him and I were DMing and I was like, I know you're busy right now with, like, the biggest. scandal in reality TV history, but I do think that you should find time to, like, meet my husband because I think you guys would be great friends. Just like, especially because he's now, like, doesn't have any, like, his summer, Wes was his best friend, his brother. They're like not speaking. So I don't know if he's from New York City, but I just feel like he needs friends. Like, he seems kind of lost.

So I'm excited that you're getting dinner with him. Like, yeah, don't get to you. Just like, be a friend. Be a friend. And I'm also excited. His, this new song, Wildflower. Is that what it's called? You got that shocked me like a heart.

Very good. Vito. Wildfly, love. Wildfire or flower? Wild fire. Wild fire. It's so good. This song is very catchy.

It is. I like it a lot. And I'm so excited. I hope that he's getting something out of reality TV. I know. Because it's so important to get yours. Otherwise, it just seems to ruin you.

Yeah. Like, dear friend Craig Conover, would you say he's gotten something out of Southern drama? Yeah, a ton. Of course. I mean, Bill businesses. But he met like one of the great loves of his life, the reality TV, he built businesses.

He, yeah, I would say, yeah. He's gotten a lot out of it. He's gotten a lot out of it. And the people who get a lot out of it, great, it's a job. And he used that job to propel a career. Otherwise, it just fucking ruins your life. I think you need to do a verse, like on wildflyer love.

That would be great. You need to do it like something. Wildflower, I could be the rapper. Yeah, I'm here in the wildflower love. Looking at you. You're my wildflower love. Looking at me. You're my wildflower love.

I'm like Luda. Literally. Okay. Like drop, drop it. Yeah. So I can't wait to hear about your dinner with Jesse. Like, just be a friend, you know? I'm so excited.

That said, I am so tired. I know. I can't believe you have to go out tonight. Like, I'm sitting my ass at home. I am so tired. But two nights this week. We went to bed at midnight. Like, that's insane.

The Nix energy is going to get me through. A bunch of coffees, maybe a little neurogum. Of course, of course. Yeah. Our fifth and final story is a little bit more summer house news. I'm just sort of closing the little. loop on something that was a rumor. Did I miss the last episode?

You did. I didn't see it. Did anything happen? Anything good? Actually, no. There wasn't a lot of resolution. There's one more. They did drop a trailer.

Oh, can I just say something? This is important. Okay? Because I didn't see. I didn't watch this. And I'm not going to comment on all the, I'm, the drama's the drama. Okay. This whole arc that Kyle Cook is a good guy.

I agree. Let's not forget that he called me a scumbag and a liar. And he called me a liar. He called his wife a fucking bitch and a dumb bitch. You're the least of it. Yeah. You know, this whole rewriting history that like, oh, God, because Amanda, like, slept with someone after her divorce,

somehow, like, Amanda being a disgusting friend makes Kyle a good guy. He's still a terrible husband. That was the most frustrating part, especially part two of the reunion, where they really dived into Kyle and Amanda's. Everyone is, like, rewriting history being like, yeah, well, Amanda, like, you did this. And it's like, he literally called her a fucking bitch and said, fuck you in front of everyone. That's what he did on camera in front of the world, in front of their friends.

Like, please, this whole. vision is history. I completely agree with you. This Kyle Cook arc, like, it's like, okay, like, let's, yeah, let's do that. I also don't ever remember when it was appropriate to say, oh, yeah, I cheated, but that's because I was in a loveless marriage. Right. We weren't having sex. I don't even know, I don't know when that became a thing. So he's a cheater. He called me a liar. He was mean to me. He was mean. If Kyle, he was mean. If Kyle Cook, like, just apologize to you. Would you forgive him? Of course. Yeah. Of course. Like, it's not, it's not, it's not, it's not that. It's not, that deep.

I just like this idea that he is now all of a sudden a good guy just because his ex-wife did something bad. The real villain here is very clearly West. Well, the real hero here is very clearly an A-lister. So do you remember before the reunion aired, but it had taped, there was an audio that got leaked.

Like somebody recorded pieces of the reunion as it was happening. And it was a really big deal. Bravo took it really seriously. They did launch an investigation. It was someone from production. They figured it out. But basically somebody recorded at the reunion. They filmed it and then released it like a month later.

But somebody recorded like a couple of voice memos, like minutes of, and it was kind of tea filled like I lived for it. But Bravo took it really seriously because it was like a huge breach of privacy. Well, Andy Cohen has finally exposed who solved the Summerhouse leak and it is an A-lister. So Andy Cohen revealed that the Oscar-winning Bravo superfan Jennifer Lawrence was responsible for solving the case of the Summerhouse Reunion Audio League. Andy said on Watchtrapinside There's been a lot of speculation of who that Bravo superfan

was with a lot of people assuming it was Jennifer Lawrence Andy continued and I just want to say Bravo superfans are the best You rode with this on this, you knew that this was bad and that it was leaked and that you wanted to see it when we presented the facts Bravo fans are the most loyal and the most dedicated And they said that Jennifer Lawrence's online sleuthing

Help the network catch the person who leaked the audio Page Sixth reach out to Jennifer Lawrence's Rep for Comment. They haven't heard back I just want to say There was a lot of speculation that it was Jennifer Lawrence Like people just made that up online Like it was so

And then like Andy like never spoke on who I just didn't say like I think he's lying Like I know that's crazy But I think that because I remember hearing Andy talk about it on radio Being like you know we made this whole big deal about who solved the audio And like now I can't really say And I don't know I just feel like there's this really convenient rumor

That it was Jennifer Lawrence And like they can't prove that it wasn't So yeah it was Jennifer Lawrence I also don't understand like how could she have figured it out? Right. And that's what I mean. In his watchtrap and live admission,

he didn't say how she did it with some online sleuthing. Okay, we can all do that. Like, why Jennifer Lawrence? But online sleuthing of what? Yeah, no, he gave no context. I kind of feel like he's lying. I know that's crazy.

I'm with you. Right? Not the conspiracy theorist, but like, why not? Why not us? The kid next to me last night the entire time. All he was,

he was looking, he's like, why not us? Why can't it fucking be us? Why can't we do this? That's so, like, everyone's so, like, self-pitying.

He was really, though, I think he manifested it the whole time. Yeah, he was like, why not us? We were, I'm sure the whole arena was packed with them, but we were in a particularly crazy section. Can we talk about? Are the people behind us okay? No, like everyone's commentary. And so funny.

Like, New Yorkers. Them making us stand up when they had their own row. No, like New Yorkers think that, like, I guess New Yorkers just like talk loud so they think that nobody can hear them. Like the commentary around us was just like truly fucking crazy. There was like an actual crazy person, three rows in front of us. It was extremely entertaining. but when vibes were low, like in the second quarter,

we were down by like 30 points and like nobody could score for their lives. It was dark. Like everyone's emotions were just like so you could feel them. Yeah, it was crazy. The highs and lows of a lifetime. It was almost like I was almost about to be so annoyed

that I was going to get home at midnight. The Knicks lost by 30. We spent money on tickets. I was about to be so fucking annoyed. And it just turned. It was really. It was amazing. It was amazing.

Literally when, and you will find out more on the Patreon blog, when Breck, came up to us at half time. He's like, I'm so sorry you're at this game. And then as I left, he's like, you're fucking welcome. That, yeah. If you're not watching, I made a roller coaster with my index finger.

It was really, I'm sure my order ring. I got to check my stats. Heart rate was. Through the roof. By the way, we need to go hydrate. Is that what you're doing right now? Yeah. I need like a stick pack or something.

Yeah, we're not like, we need to stay. I need my electrolytes. I'm really just. We went to bed at midnight. No, we went to bed at 1.30. Like, that's insane, you guys. And I couldn't even sleep when I got home. I was just like sort of revved up.

I could have stayed up all night. Yeah, and it wasn't even tired. No, I wasn't tired now. I wasn't tired now. I wasn't tired. Well, thank you for joining us. Like, seriously, perfect timing. Yes.
