Good morning, Millennials.
Welcome back to The Toast.
Happy Hump Day.
It is Wednesday.
Hope everyone has exerted some energy,
got their morning workout in,
humping the one that they love.
Whether that is human, whether that is animal,
we do not judge here at The Morning Toast.
Hey, Jax, one question for you.
How are you doing?
I'm doing good.
Thanks for asking.
So exciting that it's Hump Day.
I do hope everyone is humping someone they love now, later, whenever suits you.
I think that's absolutely beautiful.
I love starting off the show with that kind of peaceful, harmonious energy before we start
attacking one another.
I don't ever want to attack you.
No, me neither.
Maybe we could lay down our weapons for one day. You know,
we'll see where the show takes us. I feel like if there's any day for us to pick up our weapons,
it's a hump day. You think so? It brings out that energy, that feral energy in others.
I guess you never know what could happen. The stories, I don't think the stories like will
land on different sides of anything. But since when do we only talk about the stories so true we've got to talk about ourselves and
today is a huge day for us you know we were being annoying a few weeks ago on set being models
months ago this was July oh okay so months ago we were like being annoying secret project girlies
and because we're the type of influencers and celebrities who are going to tell you what secret
project correlates to which annoying time, we just launched on our Instagram.
Jackie and I are one of the many faces of the new PJ Place, which is the Children's
Place company.
They launched their own pajama line.
The pajamas are fabulous.
Fabulous.
I wear them every single day since July.
They are so amazing.
And, you know, they just hired a couple of models, us, Khloe Kardashian,
Kris Jenner, Tyler Cameron, Kevin Hart. So just some of our fellow models in the campaign.
And you can check it out on our Instagram stories and posts. And it's just like life of a model,
another day, another sleigh, another day, another campaign. Another day, another shoot.
another day another campaign another day another shoot being a model is like people like look at our lives and they see two models and they're probably like wow that must be amazing they
don't realize how hard it is to be a model no it's really hard to be a model like I'm actually
not kidding anymore and it actually is if that were my full-time job I would not thrive in the
position no after the photo shoot me and Jackie like we I was not
okay like I was so tired photo shoots are so hard like you have to stand straight for like 12 hours
straight like it's really hard and you just have to like move one muscle this yeah that and you
also like have to be confident and be feeling yourself it's just a lot yeah it's so mental
and physical I know it sounds like crazy to be like modeling is hard, but it was not what you would expect.
No, and that, you know, doesn't go to say
that it's any more difficult than being a coal miner.
Of course.
But it's just not as easy as it looks.
Honestly, like photo shoots are not my jam.
Like for the first like 20 minutes,
I'm always having so much fun.
I'm like, yes, I'm literally Kendall Jenner.
And then like I see the pictures of myself.
I'm like, oh, I'm not Kendall Jenner. You're kidding. I think it's also probably hard that people probably think,
oh, modeling so easy. How hard is it to be a model? Whereas like coal mining is hard,
but everyone respects coal miners. That's true, actually. That's such a true statement.
So I'm sure that helps the coal miners get through it get through those rough times
100 percent um so we're looking sickening if you want to go look at our um and we're like not
wearing any makeup like we literally woke up like that they asked for a natural look and so we're
natural girlies like we're naturally beautiful that's kind of my personal takeaway from the
whole experience and pj plays is just like making you feel naturally beautiful. And the pajamas are sickening. Like I'm truly like I'm very, very particular. You know me.
Skeletons are bust. And these pass my tests. And this is not even a sponsored episode. I was just
really blown away by the pajamas. Yeah. And the premium content that we just posted that you
should go check out. And now you can shop at PJ Place. So other than that, we have a fab show.
We've got Fast Five. It's Wednesday, which means we have Deer To toasters which i'm super excited about just to save some lives you know it's
always good when you can wake up and save a life trills i imagine that's how the fray felt i met
someone in atlanta who had written into dear toasters and hers was the one about the girl
who was like flirting with her husband and we the advice we gave was assess the threat yes and so she showed me a picture was the threat assessable the threat
was assessed this girl has nothing to worry about mostly because she's so fabulous not to put down
another woman but it's just I met this girl and I was like you are a fabulous entity you don't need
to be threatened by others and the girl will be invited to her wedding
because she assessed that the threat had been neutralized.
You absolutely love to see women supporting other threats.
You do.
Women helping other women neutralize threats.
Detonate the threats.
That's so good.
That's a fun word to say, threat.
A threat.
So we'll do that in Deer Toasters.
Just like change, save, end.
Heal.
Impact.
Heal.
Another good word.
Yes.
Another good word.
Another good word.
We're all about the words today.
Yeah, like short, punchy words.
And we're short, punchy girls.
Ain't that the truth? So we've got a fab show. There's no TV recap, so we can really dive words. And we're short, punchy girls. Ain't that the truth?
So we've got a fab show.
There's no TV recap, so we could really dive into the Dear Toasters, dive into the stories.
Tomorrow, actually right after this, I was that girl like walking through the street
today with my suitcase, which is probably my least favorite girl to be.
I don't think there's anything.
And for no reason, there's nothing more embarrassing than being a grown woman walking through the
streets with a suitcase.
Like, suitcases are meant for the airport and that's pretty much it
but I am headed to Nashville tonight for my show tomorrow so tomorrow's episode I'm gonna do from
our hotel room it'll still be up and I decided to go a night early so I could see Shanon Ford
so I could have dinner with her I feel like I just saw Shannon because I was listening to her
podcast episode with James
her mans yeah with her mans and they're so sweet I'm sure everybody has been following their
American getaway where they just like took the country by storm no it made me want to literally
move to America and I felt like I didn't live there I want to come back in my next life as like
Shannon Ford's international boyfriend who gets to experience America through the eyes of Shannon Ford you know what I don't even I won't be greedy like I want to come back in my next life is like Shannon Ford's international boyfriend who gets to experience America
through the eyes of Shannon Ford.
You know what?
I don't even, I won't be greedy.
Like I want to come back in my next life
as like Shannon Ford's handbag.
Like I just want to be near Shannon Ford, you know?
Yeah, well, you could be really near to her
if you listen to her podcast, probably a podcast.
She puts out premium content.
Her videos are sickening.
Sickening.
And this week was no different.
And it was so cute to hear, just like hear them be in a relationship, week was no different and it was so cute to hear
just like hear them be in a relationship you know yeah it was really cute really cute um
yeah I really don't have much else oh I will like while I'm like worshiping the ground she walks on
I'll make sure to be like oh Jackie wishes she was here yeah also do your show is tomorrow
Thursday okay so like don't get too
crazy I know you could get carried away with Shannon no I can get carried away with Shannon
but like one thing about me that I think a lot of people don't like expect because I'm like a
party animal I can't be tamed when it comes to my shows like I respect wellness like I do not drink
before shows I don't drink the day of show I won't drink like within 48 hours of my show. After a show, all bets are off
unless I have a show the next day.
But I really respect like my work ethic
does not include drinking.
I do not do that.
Nice.
It's like the one time I restrained myself.
I was randomly thinking about how I feel like
since we started doing these episodes,
since I moved,
like you really haven't been hung over for one of them. Yeah.
Well, I have like an internal battle with the hung hangover episodes because they age really
well. Like people love them. But when I'm doing them, like I feel like, you know, my, the main
part of my job is to wake up and deliver a kick ass show. And if I don't do that, it feels like
my whole day is a waste. So when I'm doing the hangover episodes, maybe I'm like shame spiraling, but I feel really
bad when I do them. I feel like I don't get a good job done. You have to carry the show. So I feel
like there was a period maybe a year ago where I was doing it kind of frequently. And part of me
was like doing the episode, getting drunk so that I could do drunk episodes because
people love them.
But I don't know.
I just felt like I wasn't doing a good job at my job.
Do you know what I mean?
I fully understand what you're saying, but also some people love them.
It's just like the singing.
Like some people love them, like literally favorite episodes.
Other people couldn't tolerate.
Yeah.
Now when I go back and like see clips, I love it.
But in the moment, like I know I was not feeling
proud I understand that and so just like everything else if people are gonna like it or dislike it
you should just decide what you like yeah so like don't get me wrong if somebody invites me to a fab
event on a Thursday like I'm going balls to the wall and I'll show up here hungover maybe it's
just that I haven't been invited to a fab event maybe it's that that's why I was thinking about
how painful it would be to do an episode in these headphones with a hangover.
Oh my God, totally.
You would have to swap to buds.
Yeah, no, these headphones hit different.
Like they're squeezing the fuck out of my ears.
I know.
I want to get a pair of different headphones.
I think I always am talking about this,
but I haven't found what I want,
which is just like over the ear headphones
that look nice, that are loose.
But I also want you guys to be able
to see my hair no you know sometimes the headphones hide a bad hair day purple which is the brand that
makes my favorite smelly pillow needs to come out with a pair of headphones that have like a flex
yeah beats by purple that have like the gel flex insert that's a good collab idea. Yeah. Free idea. That one gets the GBT stamp of approval.
Also our rebrand got the GBT stamp of approval. We need to talk about that. If you guys remember
during Jackie's maternity leave, if you know her from TikTok, like you know, but if you're not a
TikToker, Girl Boss Town, who's kind of become like the Gen Z branding and marketing expert.
She did a video on our rebrand and gave it her stamp of approval.
She said she loved the aesthetic.
She loved the partnership with Dear Media.
She thought it was genius on all fronts.
People in the comments were also like, this is just a genius.
Like everyone was like complimenting us.
It was such a nice change.
Such a nice change.
I loved it.
But we've got a fab show.
I'm ready to dive in.
We do.
I'm ready to dive in.
There's just one more thing that I wanted to talk about if I may because serious voice alert alert serious voice no because yesterday we didn't talk much about the Kanye situation because we just
like weren't in the mood and I also like didn't have the words yet for what I was feeling to talk
about them on this show like I never want to come on here with like a half-baked thought. Agreed. And I also think like we should normalize like processing things and not just.
Normalize taking the time.
And not just like regurgitating what everyone else is saying
because it feels like you have to say something
when you're not sure what you want to say yet.
And so I know what I want to say.
And so I just want to talk about it for a second.
I don't want to like make.
Oh, it's not a story.
It's not a story.
I don't want to make anti-Semitism a a story like the story you know what the stories are like
and if we ever want to talk about serious topics which we do sometimes we always do it at the front
of the episode you know um so I love that by the way let's not make anti-semitism a story and I
also think like normalize thinking before you speak so I totally agree I was like so fatigued
by it and I was just like annoyed and upset by it so the idea of like doing it at work I was just
not in the mood for but when you called me today and you were like let's talk about it I'm ready I
was like you know what okay fine um and I feel like for a little backstory for anyone who might
not know like what went down I'm sure you do Kanye was on one of his many rants on Instagram over the weekend.
And there was like a few.
It's funny because everyone is obviously talking about the DEF CON 3 text he sent to, who was it?
He tweeted that.
Oh, he tweeted it.
That was a tweet.
Everyone was talking about that.
But for me, I was like watching his whole saga go down.
Like that whole week he was posting a lot on Instagram.
He did a big interview. And there was like a few things that he said that like
triggered something in my brain like if you're Jewish you're like very um like even very you're
sensitive and very like subtle things you're like what was that a little yeah and then when he did
the Defcon 3 tweet it just kind of wrapped the whole thing up in a bow right and I think the
beginning things where people were like oh this is subtly anti-Semitic.
Like the Kushner thing.
Didn't get much traction outside of like the Jewish community.
Because we all had our antennas on.
We're like.
Yeah.
So I couldn't figure out like exactly what about the situation is bothering me.
Obviously Kanye's tweet is diabolical.
I don't know what death con three on Jewish people means. I don't know that I want to know. I'm a little scared. So totally.
And like prior, what was that? No, go ahead. No. And prior to that, like the things he had been
saying in his text messages that he screenshotted were just like very, um, like harking back to some
of the worst tropes about Jews, like that we control the media and the money and everything.
Like that is a very, very common thing that like,
I feel like is such an antiquated stereotype,
but it's so prevalent.
Like the amount of people who thought that like Jews invented the vaccine,
like it's still so prevalent, like,
and it's really damaging because it leads to terrible, terrible things.
Right.
really damaging because it leads to terrible, terrible things.
Right.
So people started paying, paid attention to the anti-Semitism. Once he said death country on Jews, he was like de-platformed from Twitter.
He was de-platformed already from Instagram for saying that like
Diddy's business people were Jewish.
Right.
He wasn't able to post after that because of that.
And now everyone or a lot of people more than, are being like Kanye's anti-Semitism,
like tsk, tsk, tsk.
Way more than usual.
Way more than usual.
And while I guess I'm glad that anti-Semitism
is getting a spotlight.
Here's what it is.
Like, I don't want to be ungrateful
because people are finally,
finally acknowledging anti-Semitism,
even though on the scale of like anti-Semitic things
that have happened in the last year,
this is very like small. Low grade. Yeah. It's low grade. So I don't want to be ungrateful,
but like, I am suspicious. I know that sounds crazy. Yeah. Um, I am suspicious. And now that
I've like had time to think about it, this is where I've landed with it. So Kanye had a very
hectic week last week and it all started and busy booked him busy he had his
yeezy fashion show where he wore a shirt that said white lives matter and this started everyone in
hysterics over the shirt but people what can people really do about him wearing that shirt
what are they going to say that he's racist he's a black man like right he's calling out that blm
was a scam and he's wearing a shirt that says white lives matter.
And like this really enraged people.
He continued all week to talk, like posting on Instagram.
He did a big interview.
You know, he's very pro-life.
People don't like that about him.
And, but you really can't, people couldn't at that time,
like take him down for something like that.
Right, right.
So now he says this thing, DEFCON 3 to the Jews,
and he's given everyone the reason to cancel him
because what he said is fucking crazy.
Right.
And it feels like everyone who's so eager
to cancel him about this
doesn't care about actual anti-Semitism,
aside from the Jewish people who are posting about it,
the Jewish activists and Meghan McCain.
Always, always supporting the Jews.
Yeah.
So it just felt so performative to me,
especially because the more I watched
some of the things that he said,
there was like more leaked clips
from his interview with Tucker Carlson.
The more a lot of what he's saying,
he is regurgitating talking points
from like Louis Farrakhan,
who is a big figure. He's a pastor
and he, um, and no, sorry, before he's a pastor, he's an anti-Semite, big time anti-Semite. If you
don't know about his anti-Semitism, you could look it up. You know, he said that Hitler was
a great man. He called Jews termites. He's also a major homophobe. He said horrible things about
the LGBT community. He's fucking wild demonic fucking wild
a lot of people in hollywood subscribe him subscribe to him we've talked about him before
like with nick cannon i think a lot and what nick cannon said on his show that um resulted in a
temporary cancellation was direct talking points from lewis farrakhan but a lot of other celebrities
either sometimes say these things or also are followers of his.
Yeah, they like go to his sermons and shit.
It's such a weird fucking flex.
It's such a weird flex.
There are so many celebrities who do and they're not canceled.
Even the ones who have said the same things that Louis Farrakhan has said have not been
canceled for what they've said.
Right.
No, I hear what you're saying.
So how are people caring so much about Kanye saying these same things when this has been going on in Hollywood for a very long time and none of those people are canceled?
Right.
No, it just it goes without saying that like this is being blown up because it's Kanye and he has become this like polarizing figure in the last year.
So for someone who actually cares about anti-Semitism, I don't feel the genuine love and like want for change from social media and
celebrities and influencers who are posting about it.
It feels 100% performative.
And I hate to like,
I hate to complain because like for the first time,
like we're getting support,
but I don't think it's coming from a genuine place because I,
I think what we've learned over the last couple of years,
like really nobody cares about like,
you're telling me like all this uproar for Kanye who like nobody really takes seriously
like all this uproar for Kanye when like less than a year ago like people in New York City in LA were
literally getting beat up on the street for being Jewish temples were being uh defaced nobody said
a word so like they still are every single day there is at least one but usually multiple
instances of anti-seemitism in this country.
Violence, like anti-Semitism in real life,
not just stuff online.
Like we talked about it in New York City.
There's this tablet magazine article that it's open season on Jews in New York City.
Hundreds of anti-Semitic attacks against Jews.
And only one person has even served one day in jail.
People don't care. And now with Kanye's tweet, now AOC gets to come out against anti-Semitism when in her state in her city the
cases of actual anti-Semitic violence are so fucking high but no one is doing anything about
it so that's what bothers me yeah and I just feel like to your point, there's so many instances of like way worse.
And I hate to like diminish because I just I can't blanket statement like can't say enough
like how what Kanye said was wrong.
Yeah.
And this is not the first time he said something anti-Semitic.
Like in 2013, he blamed his low concert sales, ticket sales on the Jews.
Like this is not the first time.
Like this is a problem.
This is a problem.
But I would love for people to bring this energy to other other
celebrities I mean I like let's let's talk about let's mention it all Bella Hadid like Bella Hadid
is not a beloved member from the Jewish community like we do not feel safe around her she went on a
podcast like two months ago basically talking about how like all of the Jewish people in her
life like don't really talk to her anymore they won't invite her over to their house like oh I wonder why and so she's like out here
being a victim like my Jewish friends well why aren't they talking to you and like Diet Prada's
posting this podcast being like she's so brave she's brave uh if like all the people in your
life from a certain community aren't talking to you anymore like maybe you're the problem
yeah no but her face is still everywhere you can't go anywhere without seeing her If like all the people in your life from a certain community aren't talking to you anymore, like maybe you're the problem.
Yeah.
No, but her face is still everywhere.
You can't go anywhere without seeing her. Where's the energy?
Where's the energy?
Let's keep up the energy, everyone.
Let's keep it up.
And it's like Bella's post.
Remember when she posted a picture of her friends?
And then her friend was literally arrested the next day for beating the shit out of some
boy I know.
Beating up a Jew in the street.
I know him.
I went to camp with him.
Committing a hate crime against Jews.
And that post stayed up against Jews. And she,
and that post stayed up.
Right.
And she never said anything like.
No.
So here,
I love the energy we brought for Kanye.
Let's amp it up with everyone else and everything else.
And all the other antisemitism,
all the,
what are,
what is it?
92% of hate crimes against Jewish people.
When we account for 2% of the population,
let's keep up that energy.
I love it. Yes. Yeah. Keep it up it up keep it up and until we do this i'm suspicious rings
performative phony and convenient performative that's the word that is the word so those are
my thoughts obviously i hope you enjoyed them incredibly disappointed like I don't know how to enjoy
Kanye again no he's you know what I'm not even disappointed because he was really fucking
annoying me the last couple of months so like now I'm like bye annoying um and that's also part of
the reason I didn't want to talk about it because like I don't I don't like I'm so over him like
he's out of my like off my list okay. Okay, yeah. And this conversation does not stem from like being obsessed with the Kardashians.
Because I've been over Kanye for a really long time.
Yeah, no, but also I don't think the Kardashians are obsessed with Kanye.
I think he causes them a lot of trouble.
A lot of grief.
So he needs to stop like now.
And so does everyone.
No, actually everyone needs to keep going.
No, keep going.
We want all of this energy please always and bring it to the jews of brooklyn who literally can't walk down
the street in religious garb without getting beat up oh and their assailants even when caught don't
face any time totally totally totally let's keep up the energy i'm gonna be counting on all of you
all you who are posting i'm counting on you I'll be checking in so those are my thoughts
my blood pressure's up should we should we dive in yeah let's take it down a notch with the last
five stories that you need to know before sorry I fucked up the fast five stories that you need
to know period wait do it again here are are the five stories that you need to know.
Period.
Gorgeous.
Absolutely gorgeous.
Oh, I'm sorry.
And just one more thing about the whole Kanye thing.
The worst part about all of this and this anti-Semitic trope is that
when someone does get canceled for saying what they say about the Jews,
you know, the Jews control the world.
They control the media.
Yeah.
Then that becomes
a self-fulfilling prophecy because you just espouse anti-Semitism. So yes, you are going to
get backlash. And that only makes that person more anti-Semitic, more firm in their beliefs
that the Jews control everything. And we don't get anywhere better. So I do love when someone
like Nick Cannon, like sits down with a rabbi. I don't know who Kanye would listen to. I don't think any of the Jews that he knows
are the ones to do it.
No, no.
I agree.
With the Nick Cannon thing, I felt like that's...
I think it needs to be us.
Oh, 100%.
I welcome the idea.
Also, I feel like the Nick Cannon case study
of anti-Semitism,
I think, first of all the
way he handled it was great I think the way we handled it was great as a community like I don't
think we came at it with anger we came at it with like genuine wanting to assist and I think that's
always going to be more helpful and I actually think like he learned something so I think that's always going to be more helpful. And I actually think like he learned something. So I think everyone should take a look at Nick Cannon.
I also don't get the sense that Kanye has any idea about Jewish history,
about really Jews, about Jews in America outside of Hollywood.
I don't think he knows anything.
I do think he could be educated.
I don't think he'll apologize.
He doesn't apologize.
I don't think he's sorry for what he said.
I don't think he didn't mean what he said. I do I don't really feel like that's a fair excuse like you're a 40 year
old man with no no not an excuse I'm sorry I'm not saying that as an excuse I'm saying that as
an opportunity like yeah no I know but learn about the holocaust I think that would be helpful for
you as a human being to learn about the holocaust you didn't learn about it growing up, but you live in LA.
You're over 40.
I didn't mean it as an excuse.
I meant it as like something that maybe could help him see outside what he
thinks is true about Jews.
Yeah.
And maybe we're the gals to do it.
I totally agree.
Like the invitation is open.
Us giving him a guided tour of Yad Vashem.
Patreon.
Patreon. Stop. Not us monet tour of Yad Vashem. Patreon. Patreon, stop.
Not us monetizing the Holocaust, stop.
Yeah, no.
Okay, we'll do it just on our YouTube channel.
For free.
No, and by the way,
and if we monetize it,
they'd be like,
those Jews.
Totally.
And I just,
I want anyone,
let's,
if you know someone
or you yourself think that Jews control
the media I want you to do me a favor I want you to google Claudia Ashrae look at the pictures that
show up look at the articles that show up look about the the lies that show up about me if I
controlled the media because I'm Jewish um it would look so different like I would literally
have all the pictures from my PJ place thing up there like I would have cute new photos of me and like selfies that are our new rebrand a rebrand yeah I
just I can't stress enough like that's literally the solid proof that you need that Jews don't
control their media because my Wikipedia my Google would look so different yeah yep also he tweeted
like right after he was about to go death con three. He had said like, who do you think started cancel culture?
Not my bitch.
Not me.
Don't put that shit on me.
Don't put that shit on me.
Today's episode is brought to you by Honey.
Thank you, Honey, for sponsoring today's episode.
The easy way to save when shopping on your iPhone or computer.
So we've talked about Honey a lot.
And I think a really new exciting development in Honey's ethos is that they
now have their browser extension available for iPhones. So of course you shop online on your
computer. If you're on the train, you're on a plane, you're always on your phone. You can now
have those amazing savings with Honey from your iPhone. So thanks to Honey, manually searching
for a coupon code is a thing of the past. Honey is the free shopping tool that scours the internet
for promo codes and it applies the best one it finds to your cart. So here's how it works. Imagine
you're shopping online at one of your favorite stores. Personally, I've saved on makeup, on
clothing, on food, on electronics. So many of the websites that I shop at very frequently use Honey,
if not all of them. So when you're shopping at your favorite site, check out, the Honey button
will appear and all you have to do is click apply coupons. Wait a few seconds as Honey will search for coupons that it can find. And if they find a working coupon, you will just
watch your price drop. So I'm never not surprised that honey, like I'll be shopping for, like I was

First story, some TV shakeup news.
Blake Shelton will depart The Voice after next season
and Niall Horan and Chance the Rapper
join Kelly Clarkson as judges.
So after more than a decade on The Voice,
Blake Shelton is preparing to say goodbye.
NBC has announced that the next season
of the singing competition will be Shelton's last.
They also announced yesterday
in a series of cryptic Instagram posts that Claudia completely fell for. I thought it was a collab.
Oh my god she was like so big mad. Meanwhile she did extra promo for The Voice yesterday.
I literally thought Kelly Clarkson was doing a song with Chance the Rapper and I was like oh my
god this is going to be the song of the season. So Chance, Kelly, Niall Horan and Blake Shelton
all posted a peace sign to their Instagram,
a peace sign emoji, which is also a V for voice.
Very cool.
Oh, I missed that.
Yes.
Also very Churchill of them.
V for victory.
And for vagina.
And for, you know, Churchill used to walk around like this.
Yes, I know.
All he was missing.
Duck face.
And turning it to the side.
Duck face.
And turning it to the side.
And so like Kelly tagged Chance, Chance tagged Blake, Blake tagged Niall all around.
It was a cute way to promote the new judges. Yes.
So twofold news is that Chance the Rapper and Niall Horan are joining The Voice's judges.
And then next season will be Blake Shelton's last.
And he is the last OG judge so let's talk about the voice because currently
I was watching me and Ben like randomly watched it a couple weeks ago and I was I always think
like if I was auditioning like whose team would I go on if they all turned for me and I honestly
was thinking like I would not choose one single person that they have right now right now it's
Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani there Camila Cabello
and John Legend so if I had to I'd probably pick Camila Cabello because like maybe I'd get to meet
Taylor Swift I think but at that point you go with the person who you think maybe you could like
strike up a friendship with Camila Cabello yeah so I was thinking how like and even though all
four of those people like are stars it's just kind of like a lackluster lineup,
especially when we are coming off of Ariana Grande's season,
which people loved.
So I was really surprised when I just realized
how it's kind of like a low star quality.
Even though they're all stars, I just can't explain.
They're not, there's no mega star.
No, there's not.
So I think the shakeup is really good.
I mean, Chance the Rapper is huge.
Niall Horan is going to be amazing. He's got a great personality too. Like you can't just
be talented. Like you have to also be funny and personable. And he has a huge audience,
which I'm sure they're interested in. And Kelly's back, which is incredible. But who's the fourth?
They need a country person to replace Blake. Let's theorize. I think it'll do a country female.
I mean, if they got Morgan Wallen,
that would be crazy
because Morgan Wallen started on The Voice.
That would be crazy.
But he's at the peak of his career.
And unless you're Ariana Grande,
like you really don't do those types of shows
when you're at your peak.
No, and I'm sure they paid her more money
than she could ever turn down.
I don't think they would offer him the same.
So like the country stars
that are having a moment right now,
Luke Holmes, Morgan Wallen, Kelsey Ballerini,
Maren Mars, like they're not going to do it.
No, but let me ask you something.
Right now, The Voice, is it two men and two women?
Yes.
I think they'll probably stick with that.
So I think it would be a female country star.
I would, I mean.
Carrie Underwood?
It would be crazy if Miranda Lambert did it
because like her and Blake Shelton are ex-wife and husband.
And like that would just be awkward.
I don't think she would do it
because I think she does not like
the storyline of her and Blake Shelton's marriage.
But someone like that.
Yeah, Carrie Underwood.
It would be crazy if Carrie Underwood
and Kelly Clarkson were both judges on The Voice
because they both started on American Idol.
But Carrie Underwood is a great guess.
Yeah.
I think it'll be a country female.
I also think it's weird they're announcing the judges for next season
when this season just started.
Oh, is that what it is?
I think they're just wrapping up the blind auditions.
Oh, that's weird.
Yeah.
That's really weird.
I do think it's Blake's time.
Like, the show was amazing for him.
I feel like it officially put him in like retirement.
Like he still releases new music and stuff,
but he's more like a celebrity and personality now
than he is like a country singer.
I feel like the 10 years that he's been on,
all these other male country artists
kind of like surpassed him.
Yeah, but I also think it helped him
distinguish himself from the pool of male country artists
that if you're not really in country,
you just kind of associate with each other.
So true.
I also think he made so much money.
Like I think he can truly just retire.
And he met his lady love and that's priceless.
A hundred percent.
They really are like a real movie.
They're like a little annoying on the show.
They're a movie that feels like a movie.
They're a little annoying on the show.
I don't watch.
So not my problem yeah
who would you choose out of the current judges Camilla John Legend Blake Shelton and Gwen
Blake Shelton yeah I also he has the best track record yeah like yeah I'm a winner yeah even
though the people from The Voice who have like like, made it big are not the winners.
Right.
But.
But they are country, usually.
Also, Blakes, even if they don't win, they go far.
Like, Rae Lynn, never forget.
Right.
No, that's what I'm saying.
Like, most of the people who have come from The Voice who made it big and didn't win are
country.
Yeah.
Because of Blake, I think.
Yeah.
So, cool.
Cool. Cool. Cool beans. Our Blake, I think. Yeah. So, cool. Cool.
Cool beans.
Our next story, some sad news.
Murder, She Wrote actress Angela Lansbury
has died at the age of 96.
She's also, as we would know her from Beauty and the Beast,
the original Mrs. Potts.
Oh, I didn't know that.
Yes, so she passed away.
The children of Dame Angela Lansbury put out a statement,
said they are sad
dame dame said that she was dame is a title that you're given right by the queen right right wow
they said she was they were sad to announce that their mother died peacefully in her sleep at her
home in la at 1 30 a.m on tuesday just five days shy of her 97th birthday is this your way of
subtly doing a royal story no because there's a part two to
this story that, uh, it's a old story of Angela Lansbury that's recirculating. That is so fascinating
that I also wanted to talk about. So she, in an interview in 2014, told this story of how, when
she was like big in Hollywood, her kids, um, and I think her daughter joined like a bad, she started
hanging out with like a bad guy who
was like making her steal and like on drugs and like doing bad things. And bling ring. No. And
it would be earlier than that. So she like picked up her whole family and moved them to Ireland.
Wow. The bad guy, Charles Manson. Oh, oh, my God. Not her maternal instinct being on point.
Yeah. Wait, that's so crazy so crazy like she uh the
interview was originally with male online but the independent resurfaced it and it gives the details
of like what her daughter was doing with Charles Manson and she just had to like had to get out of
there feeling yeah wow I mean that it takes an extremely strong person to move your entire family
to another country especially when you're having like amazing success.
And we love a queen who doesn't get, you know, swooped up by the Hollywood hoopla.
Yeah.
So I found that story to be so fascinating.
That is really interesting.
I'm sure her kids are enormously grateful.
Yeah.
Wow, that's crazy.
I didn't know she was a dame either.
And of course, she's Mrs. Potts.
So who are the current dames?
We've got Maggie Smith.
Okay.
Judi Dench.
Famous dames.
Helen Mirren.
Yeah.
14 celebrities made a knight or a queen.
Well, a knight, yeah.
I think it's Elton John.
Paul McCartney is a sir.
Okay.
Judi Dench.
The woman. Oh, Maggie Smith. Professor McGon a sir. Okay, Judi Dench. Professor, the woman, oh, Maggie
Smith, Professor McGonagall.
Well, uh, Dowager.
Dowager Countess. The Dowager.
Dowager Countess. Paul McCartney
is knighted. Elton John is knighted.
Julie Andrews
and Elizabeth Taylor.
By the way, dumb question, do you have to be British?
I don't think Elizabeth Taylor.
Elizabeth Taylor, yeah.
Michael Caine, Miss Congeniality.
He does deserve a knighthood for that.
Oh, I fucking love that guy.
Helen Mirren.
Mick Jagger.
But the Queen refused to give Mick Jagger his knighthood,
so Prince Charles gave it to him instead.
Maybe the Queen was nervous she would be swept away by his moves.
With his moves with his
moves like jagger no she said because or this article reportedly from a website i've never heard
um said it was because of his anti-establishment views not the queen getting political and bill
gates is an honorary knight oh wow sure angelina Jolie received honorary damehood,
but we don't call her Dame Angelina.
Yeah, no, okay.
I don't care anymore.
Anna Wintour is a dame.
I don't care anymore.
This is seeming false, so.
I'm wishing Angela Lansbury's family well.
Rip Angela.
Don't. Are you ready for our next story i don't give a rip yeah chloe kardashian had tumor removed from her face chloe kardashian had a tumor removed nearly 20 years after finding a cancerous mole on
her back the reality is 20 years 20 years ago she had a mole removed on her back that was cancerous.
Oh, wow.
I think we knew that.
I think she shared that before.
She wrote via Instagram stories yesterday that she has seen numerous stories going around about the ever evolving bandage on her face over the past few weeks.
She set the record straight, explaining that she had a small bump on her cheek biopsied
after it refused to budge for seven months.
After the growth was examined by two doctors, she was advised to have an immediate operation
to remove the tumor.
She said, I'm grateful to share that Dr. Fisher
was able to get everything
and her margins appear clear now.
We love a transparent queen.
So happy that everything is okay.
And I guess me and Chloe have much in common
because we both get molds removed.
Yeah.
Also, this is just a great reminder for everyone to get checked.
And also it is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
So get your boobies checked.
Mammogram season.
Yeah.
And totally.
I'm grateful to Chloe for reminding us to make that reminder.
Totally.
Those full body checks at the dermatologist,
especially if you have a male dermatologist,
are some of the worst moments of your life.
But you know what else is the worst moment cancer so go get checked go get checked
thanks for the reminder miss especially if you're like a moley girly like there are two types of
people in this world moley girls and non-moley girls but also freckly like um if you have a lot
of freckles okay but that's not part of what I'm saying.
No, but in terms of getting checked.
But I'm just saying, like, there's two types of girlies.
Like, moley girls and non-moley girls.
Like, either you're a girl with moles or you're a girl without moles.
Girl with no mole.
Girl with no mole.
In the words of Danielle Staub, there is no in-between with me.
You know, you're either a mole or a not mole.
I don't know if there's anyone who has zero moles.
I bet there is. Actually, Dana will know. I'll ask her when I speak to her. zero moles and if there is actually Dana will know I'll
ask her when I speak yeah and if there is I would like to interview that person like to ask them
probably like all about their blissful upbringing their mole free life their mole free life their
self-conscious free life I'm sure they're the most confident person I'd like to talk to them
you'd be shocked to hear what other issues plague them no it's because everyone is
dealt a hand of cards and no because no if you're dealt a hand without moles you're special
you're special okay well we will identify if there is a zero mole person out there mole woman
um are you ready for our next story only if it's the next story that's sponsored by Jackie's favorite sponsor, hands down.

Next story, some sweet new couple news.
Eligible bachelorette Emma Roberts is dating actor Cody John after her split with Garrett
Hudlund.
Emma Roberts has been reportedly dating actor Cody John for a few months.
The actress and John met through mutual friends, according to E! News. Who the hell is Cody John? I don't know. I googled him. I don't know what he,
like the things that he's been in, I haven't seen. But he posted a picture of them smooching
on his Instagram. And he had other posts on his Instagram of them like hanging out in August.
And now someone is speaking to E! News confirming it, saying Emma loves Cody's personality.
He's really funny
and they have been having a great time together.
I think that's good
because as much as I loved the fact
that she was dating Garrett Hedlund for so long,
they had a baby together,
I do think their relationship was extremely tumultuous
and chaotic and not good.
So while I have a deep and special place in my heart for Garrett Hudlund,
thanks to Georgia Rule and Country Strong,
two of the greatest movies of all time,
whose common denominator is Garrett Hudlund,
I think it's for the best.
I do.
But he drunk drove.
Oh my God, I forgot.
I forgot, I forgot.
Shit, shit, shit.
This is where my morals,
like I'm inclined to throw them out the window.
No, it's more important when your morals get tough
and when your convictions get tough,
you have to stand your ground.
No, when times get tough, my morals get going.
Like, you know what I mean?
You need to be scrupled.
Shit.
Shit.
I can't.
I'm sorry to have to remind you, but like you loved it.
If it were a story about Sam Hunt, we'd be talking about it.
Yeah, of course, because I don't even like Sam Hunt.
So like that's easy to be scribbled.
Of course.
Oh my God, no.
Like I love Garrett Hedlund.
I'm sorry.
I still do. I do but you can seriously condemn drunk driving hundred percent it's not cool it's bad it's bad yeah really bad
thanks for ruining my day anyways Emma Roberts is having a good day because she has a new man's
and she's so eligible she's so eligible and if she wasn't in a new relationship I would be putting
her on the list to set her up yeah and um I'm glad that she's finding romance me too and I'm
sure it's serious if they've gone public and she has uh her baby now
you know like i don't think she's yes like new mama's are as flippant with like relationships
when obviously there's someone else to consider and and the source talks about that in this article
too hundred percent cautious bringing her son around new people yeah hundred percent hundred
percent are you ready for our fifth and final story? I am. A little light, fair, bridal news.
Nikki Bella.
Bitch, I sent you a story today.
Oh, right, right.
Sorry.
No.
It is high motherfucking time.
Oh my God.
I start being heard around here.
Can I explain?
I literally checked my phone five minutes ago
because I remember you said,
I had a DM from you saying,
let's talk about this today.
So I just checked my phone to see what it was.
I was going to slot it in
and may, am I allowed
a slip of the mind but why do your slips only come when I request stories that's not true
Gwyneth Paltrow and Shark Tank you totally forgot oh my god uh you send me stories all the time and
I always incorporate them but no I don't send any stories I don't get a credit for that max max max once a month I would say four stories a week you send me
isn't so fun for you like being delusional I'm not even I was gonna go to your story like
can't you just forgive and move on?
I want to forgive you.
And I want to forget you.
Well, that's going to be really hard because we do the show together every day.
It is hard.
And this didn't have to turn into this because I was agreeing with you.
I had already folded over my iPad.
Okay, let's talk about it. And you won't hear about how Nikki Bella chose her wedding dress 30 minutes before her wedding.
Oh, that's interesting.
We'll talk about it tomorrow.
Anyways, the thing that Claudia did send me was Rachel Bilson's podcast, Broad Ideas.
She had on her podcast.
Hold on.
I don't want the audio to start playing.
She had on Alexis Nyers and Gabby from The Bling Ring.
And they are talking about the robbery.
And Rachel is forgiving them and
moving on so if Rachel can forgive them I can forgive you for forgetting my story I was shocked
I was shocked when I heard this clip first of all the fact that like they're acknowledging like
Rachel Bilson is acknowledging Alexis Nyers was just crazy and that they were in the same room
podcasting but also Rachel was extremely forgiving. She was like trying to help
Alexis deal with the fact that like Alexis lives with this regret and this guilt. And of all the
people who got robbed, like Rachel got robbed really badly. And Rachel lost a family heirloom,
her mother's engagement ring. Like it was so much more than just like diamonds and cash like
it was really sentimental stuff and Rachel was like I've moved on from it so long ago you need
to move on from it you need to forgive yourself you can't keep walking around with this it could
never be me it could never be me either but you do hear these stories like of forgiveness of
forgiveness even in like my drug and alcohol abuse course
they had these like two stories of two people who drunk drove killed people when you keep talking
about your drug and alcohol course it sounds like you were like sentenced to right that I've been
like rehabilitated no in order to get your permit in Florida you need to take a four-hour drug and
alcohol abuse court class that um shows you the dangers of drinking and driving.
I just feel like every time you bring up your drug and alcohol course, like you need to mention that.
Okay. So in the course that I had to take, because I just want to get my permit,
like nothing nefarious happened. There were these two cases of people who drunk drove,
killed other people, like they weren't injured, but now they're spending their lives in prison.
And the family members of the people who they killed, it's been like 10, 15 years,
have forgiven them.
And now it's like, you have to forgive yourself.
You hear about that a lot.
I think it's probably harder to forgive yourself than it is to forgive the person who wronged you.
Yeah.
I just thought it was very big of Rachel Bilson.
And I love Rachel Bilson
please don't tell me she drove and drank too not that I'm aware of um so this just made me love
her even more it's like such a mature thing to do she didn't even have to acknowledge Alexis like
I think but the conversation they had was like the way that the media glamorized this whole thing and
how the movie they continue to right um I did finish the bling ring documentary and there was like a
twist at the end because like everyone on there was just like being delusional um and talking
about like social media like they had that guy Nick and like Perez Hilton and then they had
someone come in at the end and be like these people like who you're hearing from like they
are the problem like they're exactly what's wrong and how things like the bling ring happened like
this obsession with celebrity and being famous and it was like they
kind of flipped the whole conversation on its head i kind of loved it oh that's a good message
if you can get till the end we're also victim blaming paris hilton how so like she perpetually
she's like the the face of this culture being obsessed with fame and celebrities so like
it's only you know a matter of time before she got robbed like what
I don't think that's how it works one plus one equals sock sock yeah they were like kind of
victim blaming Paris I did not like that that's weird um and I agree just and Rachel talks about
like the glamorization I only saw the one clip that you sent me. I also feel like this is like the fact that she's sitting down with Alexis and I,
here's like, it's just the power of podcasting.
Like, I don't think they would be getting together.
If like Alexis has a podcast, Rachel's a podcaster.
We're both in the news.
Like, let's podcast.
I actually think in a lot of ways, podcasting is probably facilitating
important conversations that might not be had otherwise. I mean, us important conversations daily minutely hourly on the reg yeah no I agree
this is a true testament to the power of podcasting I couldn't have said it better myself
um and this I was just shocked like when I saw this clip going around I'm like wait there's no
way that's Alexis Nyers like well when I first saw the clip I they don't have video so it's just
like pictures of Rachel talking and I was like oh Rachel's talking about it on her show and then I
read the caption and it said like she's talking about it with Alexis and Gabby I was like shit
no this is so crazy I'm surprised more people aren't talking about it yeah also the glamorization
of past crimes and this brings me back to the Jeffrey Dahmer thing that we talked about people
like didn't like what we said about it but the more I've uh seen and heard about Jeffrey Dahmer
still haven't watched it but my husband was watching it so I saw like some stuff and I've
been reading more like media stuff and from the victims families like the more certain I am like
why is this the content that we're creating like that show let me just say people didn't like what we said and they were 100 right because we literally didn't know what we were
talking about about we didn't know about like his specific crimes but right like he targeted gay men
and exclusively yes and but what we were our larger point was like why are we watching shows
about people like this even if they're not glamorizing it necessarily,
the fact that it's a Hollywood production,
Jeffrey Dahmer's played by Evan Peters,
like it's glamorous.
The fact that that show-
I stand by what we said.
Is number one in the country.
And so everyone is just sitting at home
watching these horrific crimes.
Heinous crimes, unimaginable crimes,
is so twisted to me.
I completely agree.
I stand by what we said completely.
Like the more I hear about it,
and I saw a story from like one of the victim's families.
There was an episode that focused on one victim in particular
and I guess like his trial and everything.
And so they're using the victim's name and his family's name.
And the victim's family is like, how are they allowed to do this?
How are they allowed to talk about us and portray us?
I find it so wrong.
And it also makes me feel like in 15 years, 20 years,
they're going to be making movies or shows
about the worst crimes committed today.
By the way, the turnaround time is fast as fuck now like ever
but I do think like getting away from it you become desensitized yes and I think that back
in the 70s like serial killers were I don't want to say trendy but that was what the crazy people
were doing yeah I think it's morphed to today where that's not as much what's happening but we see like mass
shootings and that's what's happening now and so like totally about the fact that in what 10 years
are we gonna have an origin story about the Yvaldi school shooter no by the way we are um I totally
agree I think this true crime like niche has taken a wild turn I don't think it's like funny anymore
I don't think it's respectful and I think like nobody ever thinks about how like the fam like the living family members of
these victims who are re-traumatized every time there's a new documentary or a new tv show is so
fucked up and I don't watch shit like that I I won't watch it like that and I genuinely like
don't understand yeah so stand by what we said I stand by what and that's like but I that's like
what we were talking about I do apologize that we didn't know the extent of his crimes and and
yeah he did but that's like what we were talking about with Jessica Knoll she agreed yes exactly

or man i'll make it short and sweet my husband is seriously the best except when it comes to the one
thing that completely grosses me out he rarely washes his hands after using the bathroom at
first he tried to tell me that it was only when he went number one and that guys don't need to do
that if they actually need to do it more, but okay.
I've recently noticed him not washing his hands after he goes poop too.
Whenever I hear a flush and it is not followed by the sound of running water,
I get disgusted and usually question, did you wash your hands?
Sometimes he grunts annoyed and goes back into the bathroom to do it.
Other times he yells at me to just stop.
Is this a guy thing?
We have two little boys who are starting to pick everything up
and I don't want them to eventually think that this is normal behavior also like don't touch me or my babies with your germ
infested hands help I'm starting to feel like a naggy wench the thing about being a naggy bitch
wife which I am is you have to pick your battles so it's important to take inventory and be like
is this battle worth picking this battle I do believe is worth picking especially when it comes to number
two yeah I don't know what is tech is like considered normal when it comes to washing
your hands after going to the bathroom like I wash my hands every time I go like wouldn't even
occur to me not to whether I'm going number one or two three four five six seven eight nine ten
like I wash my hands every single time that's why if I ever have spray tan or use self-tanner
my hands are always white like I wash them after everything I know that That's why if I ever have spray tan or use self-tanner, my hands are always white. Like I wash them after everything. I know that there's-
I would say I wash my hands when I'm out in public 100% of the time. In the comfort of my own home,
I'm going to go with like an 83%. Okay. I know that there are people who don't wash their hands
after they pee, but always do it after number two. So if he's not washing his hands, and I do think men need to do it more after number
one than women.
Because they're touching the orifice.
Like we're using toilet paper.
I do think sometimes if you're peeing and you wipe, like you could literally get up
off the toilet with no bacteria on your hands.
Like if done correctly.
If done correctly.
But just in case for that margin of error, wash your hands.
So he should be washing his hands like as a human being.
But also like as a father now, you really don't want your kids to think that that's
even an option because of course they won't wash their hands.
Who wants to wash their hands?
And kids like just have so many germs that they carry that they transmit to one another.
Like you want to get your kids in the business of washing their hands.
And for that reason, he needs to make a bigger effort so I think a general rule of thumb when you're starting to
feel like a naggy bitch wife which is the worst fucking feeling is to assess how important this
particular thing is and I do think that this is I mean have we learned nothing from the pandemic
like you gotta you gotta be clean right but it's like it's different than pandemic because it's just like your fecal matter and stuff no but still
it's just like general hygiene yeah like we know the importance of washing your hands now you know
what I mean yes yes I think that you should fight for this just because it's a good example to set
and even if your kids only absorb like 50 percent of
what you're trying to tell them to do you need to start at 100 percent but you also want your kids
to listen to you and your kids are going to do as you do not as you say just what you preach
you have to practice what you preach because then you're just a hypocrite but one thing about me is
like when you know god willing I become a parent like I will be a hypocrite. It's salads for everyone. McDonald's for me. Yes. But also like, I do think sometimes not like about washing your hands,
but sometimes like there's different rules for children than there are for adults. Like we are
not the same. Right. Right. Like I can wear makeup. You can't. Of course. Right. Right.
But still, like I just that I think people keep asking when I'm going to write my next book and
by people, I mean like three people. Um,
and I do think I probably will wait to write another book till I have a child.
And it's going to be called like the hypocritical mom,
because I'm,
it's do as I say,
not as I do.
I think a lot of moms follow that.
Cause it's too late for me,
you know,
but it's not too late for you.
Yeah.
No,
but it's like,
I can curse.
You can.
Of course I can.
Yeah.
That's going to be a problem for me.
I'm just going to have to, I'm just gonna have to I'm
gonna have those kids I'm okay with it there's worse things there's worse things like they're
not doing crack so no a fuck here and there I'm okay with it all right next up hey Jackson
love you guys and I love the toast rebrand already I need your advice the other night two of my
friends got too drunk on a night out and started shit talking my boyfriend and my relationship.
Basically, they were saying he treats me badly and it couldn't be further from the truth.
It is the best and healthiest relationship I've ever been in and all my other friends
agree with that.
When I asked one of the girls after I found out, she took full responsibility and apologized.
Oh, you weren't there?
No.
I feel completely betrayed by this and I don't want to lose my friend, but it made me feel
insecure and confused.
Any advice on what I should do?
Sounds like you got a couple of jealous wenches on your hands.
And you know,
the only way to handle a jealous wench.
Hmm.
I don't know.
I was going to flip to you.
Oh,
I,
I think that you,
there could be like room for forgiveness here.
As we've stated so many times about the housewives,
like you could say something mean when you're drunk that you don't really mean and if your friend like took full responsibility
apologized I think you guys need to like explore it further and be like well why did you say that
stuff like do you really mean it if you think he's a bad boyfriend like like let her speak on it and
then you can explain like why he's not and why you're so happy I think you should work through
it but honestly I also think like it's upsetting but they also if they're both
single like they might be jealous wenches jealous and you can know that in the back of your mind and
like not that it's an excuse but now you know how it happened no but also I do and they don't even
have to be single they could be in bad relationships themselves and be projecting with female
friendships I just feel like there's a certain level of shit talking that's expected like
I don't know like it's just part of the human experience.
Like we're three best friends and two of us are going out.
Like we're going to talk about the third one.
Like, is that crazy?
Like, I just think we all need to like lower our expectations a little bit.
Like friends talk about friends.
Like it's just part of the human experience.
Yeah, that is true.
I wouldn't want to lose a friend over it.
And so if I were the one on the receiving end,
I was someone who like I found out they were talking about me, depending on which friend it. And so. Right. If I were the one on the receiving end, I was someone who like,
I found out they were talking about me,
depending on which friend it is and what they said,
like I would try and work through it.
If it was the opposite,
if someone caught me talking crap,
I would want the chance to explain myself
or just completely apologize
if what I said was something I truly didn't mean.
Right, right.
Give it a chance.
I don't think like in this present moment
this is a reason enough
to like write people off completely
because people are people
and they talk.
Like it's just,
it's who we are.
I agree with that.
We need to be like
a little bit more forgiving
on the shit talking front.
I agree.
All right, third and final.
Hey girlies,
here's the deal.
Long time toaster,
OG brother,
thank you for the show.
I can't tell you how many times
listening in has pulled me
out of a funk
or cast away my bad mood.
Oh my, that's so nice.
So my husband, total p-jom, moved four hours from home to be with me
and I gained my dream job as a NICU nurse.
Is it a NICU nurse?
Yeah, I think I say NICU and I'm wrong.
Okay.
We have been living here for over two years now. At times,
we miss some of our friends and family, but we go up to our hometown quite a bit and people
always make time to come see us, except my mother-in-law. The excuses range from unrealistic
weather forecasts to just she's too busy this weekend, but she always makes sure to ask us
when we will be visiting next or even asking us when we are moving back. My husband has made it
very clear to her that this is our new life and that she needs to
accept it.
But I can see that it bothers him that she still hasn't made an effort to come visit
us.
There's a part of me that wants to confront her and tell her she needs to make a plan
to come down to be there for her son.
But there's another part of me that wants to have a full blown standoff with her to
see how far she'll take this.
My husband and I are trying for a baby and it makes me question if she'll even make the
effort when we get pregnant and or have a baby.
What would you guys do? A conflicted daughter-in-law I'm like I'm a stubborn wench like
I am tempted to go stand off like fine don't see your grandbaby that's on you but she is an older
woman no I don't know that this would bother me so much because some girls would crave this by
the way it depends on your situation and not because
like I would be glad that she's not coming but like everybody is going through their own stuff
like she's an older woman like you don't know why she doesn't want to come down but also like maybe
she just wants you to come to her and like even if that means she sees you less like it's maybe
she can't make the trip for one reason or another right like she's probably just expecting that
anytime you guys see each other,
it'll be you coming to her.
And as you know,
when you have respect for your parents and you're the younger party,
you do have to kind of respect that.
So I don't think it's so crazy.
But I imagine being a wife and seeing your husband like sad about something
his mom is doing,
like you feel helpless and like you want to be helpful.
Right.
But I would just want to understand why she's not coming.
Like.
Four hours.
Like treacherousness I assume.
It's in the car.
Yeah I think so.
Like maybe you could get.
Maybe it's like she doesn't want to drive.
Maybe you could get like a driver for her.
Whatever.
Drive down there yourself.
Yeah like find out what it is that's like that block for her.
I don't think it's just her
like not wanting to see you guys.
Yeah, there's probably a reason.
Like maybe she's too old to do the trip alone.
Maybe she can't sit in a car for that long.
Yeah.
Figure it out.
Yeah.
Meet halfway.
I would advise to be like a little open-minded about it
and not just assume the worst.
Yes, I agree. That's fair. That she And not just assume the worst. Yes I agree.
That's fair.
That she's being just wenchy for wench's sake.
It's so hard to tell though.
When someone's being a wench.
And when they're not.
Yeah.
Especially when you like me.
Assume the worst in other people.
You know.
I don't think that you do though.
I think that I do actually.
Like I'm self aware enough to know.
Like I'm always seeing the worst in people.
But I think you like take pause, you know.
Only when I ask you and you're like pause. Well, you pause enough to ask me.
Yeah, that's fair.
That's fair.
Maybe I, am I like an amazing person?
Yes.
