Good morning, girlies, it's the Toast. It's Jackson, Claude, and we're your hosts. It's your favorite show, the fast five things you need to know. We'll start your day off swirly, it's the Toast. They sound amazing. Welcome back to The Toast and happy Tuesday, or as we call it, Tuesday. And speaking of girls that I choose in this lifetime and the next, And in every lifetime.

It's my sister, Jackie. Hey, Codgers, Wojers, how's it hanging? Bojers, you know. Codgers, Wojers, how's it hanging? Bojers, you know. Bojers Wojers, my man. Bojers Wojers, soldiers, nojers, you know? Hey guys, this is The Toast, even though that was a bit of gibberish for ya. Thanks for clarifying.

Welcome back to The Toast. Welcome Toast to the back. I never welcome everyone into the show. You usually do. You're extremely unwelcoming. That is what people say about you. 100%, and I love that for me. But today I'm welcoming you all in to our show

because we have a party little show for you. And if it feels like both Jackie and I have like a little bit of an extra pep in our step, we do for separate reasons. I'm assuming Jackie's has something to do with the fact that Meghan Markle's show finally launched on Netflix last night. Well, it is D-Day over here.

If Jackie has a bit of a sparkle in her eye, that's why. It's a Markle sparkle. Correct. And if I have a bit of a sparkle in my eye, I really don't mean to brag. I never want to come on here and be like, my life is so amazing. It's not nice to rub in people's faces. But I only peed one time in the night

and I didn't wake up choking on my own vomit. And I actually had such a good night's sleep that I think Enora was an amazing movie. And I think life is worth living. And it's just really amazing what a tablet of magnesium, a pepsid, I switched over Dr. Fox said I could, a pepsid could do like life is worth living. The magnesium is major. What'd you do? The one that I sent you 500 milligrams? I'm back on my 500 milligrams as well because my nails were all broken.

My sciatica was back and I'm like, okay, so, so. So yeah, we do drugs. Do you guys say you had a funny story to tell me? I did. So I went to the doctor yesterday, you know, for that checkup, all good, thank God, thank God. Blessed be the fruit. Brech Hashem, leon haram.

But on the way there, we always drive. I don't know why, like we just, we like decided. We do love driving, but like the doctor's in the city and like it's pretty easy to get to. I don't know why we always drive. We never can find parking. Like who just drives? Like you have to justify having a car.

It's so true, okay? Sojourner, nojourner truth, okay? Sojourner's truth. And I had such a busy day yesterday that Ben picked me up from work and I didn't have time to eat lunch. And I'm so hungry. And every time I go into the doctor's hungry,

they're like, baby's not in good position, baby's sleeping. And they're always yelling at my baby that they can't get their photos. So I always make sure to eat. It's my due diligence as a mama to be. And so we just pulled over on the side of the road, Ben ran in and got like two slices. We just grabbed a slice.

Oh, his dream come true. Yeah. And we were like eating the slices on the way. And I didn't want to complain, but like he got two slices for two people. Right. So when he came to the car with the two like plates, I'm like, okay, good.

He like knew I needed two. And they happened to have been. One for baby. Right, they happened to have been particularly small, not small, but below average of a New York City slice. So I'm like, oh, he got me two, that's nice. And he gets in the car, he starts eating his, and I'm like, wait, should we go in? And we were really late.

He's like, why would I go back? I'm like, what is not gonna suffice? I'm starving and I'm pregnant. And he starts driving, I'm like, it's fine, I'll just give me yours. And he was like, no, I haven't eaten all day. I'm like, what is not gonna suffice? I'm starving and I'm pregnant. And he starts driving, I'm like, it's fine, I'll just like, give me yours. And he was like, no, I haven't eaten all day. I'm like, what? I'm like, give me your slice.

He's like, no, I'm starving. I'm like, okay, fine, I finished a slice. I'm like, I was hungry, but like, it was sufficient. Go to the doctor. We're watching the ultrasound. Oh, so cute. This, we got the 3D. And she's like, oh what is that? I'm like, what are you talking about?

She's like, oh, it's so cute, he's chewing on his umbilical cord. I'm like, excuse me? That's like, bad, like you need the, like what if he chewed through it? And then I look at Ben and I'm like, you wouldn't give me that fucking slice of pizza and our baby's so hungry.

He's eating his own body, okay? Look, cause he has empty teeth. Yeah, right. And they were like, it happens all the time. It's so cute. Like doctors will tell you the craziest things in pregnancy, they're like, it happens to everyone. Yeah, I've not heard that before,

but Ben should be ashamed. And also, there are so many great markets around that doctor's office. They've really placed themselves in a parchy spot for pregnant women that Ben should have been out at the market. You guys don't use the market enough, I feel. Okay, so when, one time it happened, I was so hungry at a doctor's appointment

and the baby like wasn't moving, they needed him to flip to get the picture of the spine. So Ben ran and got me pizza and I'm like eating pizza while being ultrasound and it was really crazy. And there's a sign that's like no food, no bed. And like the girl made an exception for me, but like you can't bring food into the rooms. So like I'll have to go to the market afterwards.

Yeah, or sometimes you have to wait a little bit. So like that's a good time for Ben to go to the market. It's literally across the street. He should just- Actually I'm kind of like a VIP client at the doctor. I've actually never waited. Oh, that's nice. Yeah. He shoots you. Actually, I'm kind of like a VIP client at the doctor. I've actually never waited. Oh, that's nice. Yeah.

Sometimes if you get there a little late, like kind of miss your appointment, you gotta wait. Oh, see, I'm not late. I would never be late to Dr. Fox. Because you drive your car. Because I respect him, yeah. Yeah. And the sort of like major update, as you guys know,

I see a high risk doctor because of my sister. And yesterday I've officially been cleared as having a strong cervix. I don't have to get it checked every time now. That's exciting. Cervix strong. Putting the probe out of business. Yeah, they said my cervix is kind of giving like strength.

They said parchylicious. They said that looks like an independent, strong cervix. That's what they said. They said it was a parchylicious cervix. They actually started playing my favorite song, Partilicious by Fergie. Partilicious definition, make the boys go loco. So it was a partilicious day.

My favorite song is Parjeenus by Taylor Swift. There's Parjeenus. Okay, that's not how it goes. There's Parjeenus after you. There's Parjeenus. Parjeenus because of you two. Both of these things can be true. There is pargenus.

Plus the blood and rose. Actually- We haven't talked about Lurde in a while. She's been really quiet. She's on hiatus, so we're on hiatus from Lurde, which is good because Meghan deserves her moment. Yeah, we're kind of like pushing the moment onto people because Meghan is actually like not having a moment

anywhere besides this show. People are not talking about her in the way that I think she like wishes that they were. I don't know what people are talking about, but like when I look at the trades before the show, so like Page Six, People Magazine, all of like entertainment websites, like they are trying to talk about her like,

and be like, Megan show how she goes on day dates with Archie and Lilibet. Cute. Yeah, like, and Mindy Kaling calls her Markle in her last recess. Well, is that a story today? No. Okay, because I actually thought you might,

and that moment is going viral. I will not make it, I will not talk about the show until I've seen it. I'm not gonna watch a clip and judge because that's wrong to do. Okay, but I just do wanna talk about this one clip and judge it very briefly, because it's my queen, Mindy.

And she was like trying to make a funny joke, Mindy Kaling being like, if people knew Meghan Markle, like, and she was like, it's so funny that you keep calling me Meghan Markle. Yeah, that was like the joke Mindy Kaling was making. Like it's irrelevant. We don't know the whole conversation, but I guess Meghan that you keep calling me Meghan Markle. Yeah, that was like the joke Mindy Kaling was making. Like it's irrelevant. We don't know the whole conversation, but I guess Meghan shared that she ate Jack in the Box.

But Mindy Kaling was just like being one of us. She was just being one of us. She was like, if people only knew Mindy, like Meghan, Meghan Kaling, Meghan Markle ate Jack in the Box. Like it was like an offhand, like swirly remark. Yeah, that's just like what you say when someone famous eats that food.

Correct, she like wanted you to think that. And then Meghan's like, it's so funny that you keep calling me Meghan Markle, you know I'm Sussex. And Mindy Kaling is like, she didn't say anything, she's like, she looks like she got in trouble. You know that very famous clip

of RuPaul going on Jimmy Fallon? Yes, oh my God, that is so good. Where, okay, so RuPaul is promoting his cover, I think of like Vanity Fair or something. Yes. Oh my God. That is so good. Where? Okay. So he's, RuPaul is promoting his cover. I think of like Vanity Fair or something. So Jimmy Kimmel shows like the first ever drag queen to be on the cover up. And RuPaul's like, I drag queen.

And Jimmy Kimmel's like seeing his whole career flash before his eyes. He's like, what did I say? I said it wrong. I said it wrong. And he's like, I drag queen. I am the queen of drag. And it's just like a funny gag moment. And you see Jimmy Kimmel.

No, but Jimmy Kimmel's career flashed before his eyes. Fallon, Fallon, Fallon, Fallon. Jimmy Fallon's career flashed before his eyes. It's the funniest clip. It's so funny. And then you see like this huge wave of relief, like wash over him when he realized like it was just a joke. That's literally like Meghan, she's like, what did I say?

What did I, like she doesn't know what she said wrong. And then Meghan's like, I'm Sussex now, and she's explaining how like, how meaningful it is to have the same last name as her kids, which I totally understand. But not to be like a nitpicker, but like, I thought their last name was Windsor. So like Mountbatten-Windsor.

The collective family, the whole royal family, but then each individual family like has their own name. Now I think when you're a working royal, you don't use last names, so it doesn't matter. But then when they like left, then they took their little family name of such. So is that like what's on her license? Well, no, every article says Meghan Markle,

Meghan Markle, like Meghan Markle is joining Lamanata, like Meghan Markle is ever. It's giving Kelly Brianne, like you want a new name and we're not giving it to you. No, but she, she like, I, this is the first time hearing that her name is Meghan Sussex. Like legally changed. The only thing, I didn't choose it as a story,

but like if we were going to talk about Meghan, just wanted to share that she had a little fan screening of her show. Oh, I saw. In New York City. It was giving 1989 secret session. It was giving secret sessions. I was honestly disappointed that Stassi wasn't there

because I- I was disappointed you weren't there. No, I'm not the elk to be invited. I haven't been ride or die. These are people who have been with her since the TIG. The TIG. Like who are fans, like just Meghan Markle stands. I wouldn't count myself among them.

I am someone who's just been craving comfort cooking content and also craving to see like what Meghan Markle and Harry have up there The Sussexes have up their sleeve and so I'm very interested by this Yeah And I'm not where I think we could be on the precipice of something I wouldn't say I'm like I don't deserve to be invited to this but Stassi does Yeah, and also to say we're not talking about Meghan Markle today, right? No, but it is M day Yeah, it's the big day.

We'll see how the show is received by one Jackie O. I finished my Gorsh forsaken book last night so I can enjoy Whistle of Megan. I guess what she's trying to do more so than be Megan Sussex is just be Megan. So that she doesn't have to answer. You've been freed from the shackles of your book club. Does anybody who's ever been a part of a book club feel like,

it's so amazing. Like when, like I have good positive things to say about my time in a book club, but like, it's, does like towards the end of the month, like when you're almost at the date, like it starts to feel like homework and it starts to feel like a prison and you're like, why did I sign up for this?

And then you read the book and it's fine. But like, there's a couple of days where you're like cramming and you're like, why the fuck did I voluntarily decide to do this? It's literally homework. And if I hadn't been reading all weekend, I would have been watching Love is Blind. And even though the book wound up not being my favorite, spoiler alert, like I'm glad I spent the weekend reading something enriching rather than watching the worst, dumbest show on television that will actually take points away from my IQ. So all in all, I'm grateful to the book club because I know without it, I would be the dumber person

and I would never read a book like this. Thank you for reminding me. Just wanted to update everybody on something that was said yesterday. People were really quick to be like, "'Tirdy, James Cameron's alive." And I happened to know that. Why did you even say he wasn't?

I just was saying that the Elk of films, James Cameron's rolling over And I happen to know that. Why did you even say he wasn't? I just was saying that like the elk of films, like James Cameron's rolling over in his grave, you know? Oh, that's just a common phrase. Thank you. It's just like a, it's a matter, it's a wording thing. It's just like anything to say. It's funnier when the person's alive. You know, and I know he's alive, like Avatar,

Avatar 2, Avatar 3, 4, and 5. Like I'm familiar, don't worry. But I guess people were not like understanding the figure of speech I chose to use. Yes, comedy. Yes, comedy. Comedic. We have dear toasters today.

Yay. Huge for the community, the DTQ. We actually have a lot of stories in addition to the stories that aren't stories. Do you know what I mean? And do we have the story that I put forth? Yes, finally Mark Zuckerberg has made it into the Fast Five. I need to talk about Mark Zuckerberg.

Yeah, me too. I kept meaning to talk about it and then he just kept getting overlooked, which is so classic, Zuck. And you know, he only pulled that stunt at his wife's birthday party, like to make it into the Fast Five. Not necessarily us, but like the world's Fast Five.

And it wasn't gonna happen on Friday and it wasn't gonna happen on Monday, but Tuesday is your day, Mark. But it needs to be spoken about, because when you are a loser, you deserve to be made fun of. So we're gonna do that. And that's giving like story number four energy.

Yeah, all of the stories, it's one of those days where it's not really, they're all kind of equal. They're all at like 20%. So like the order might be a little random. So it's giving equitable division of the assets. It is, it's not giving leads, story and sub stories. Oh, that's good.

I like when we're all just sort of, it's a level playing field. Yeah, it's definitely an RBG day, like random a good. Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Ruth Bader Ginsburg, rest in peace. She's not rolling over. No, no, she's lying flat on her back, doing well. Yeah.

So I could, if you have nothing else to share about life. About life. No. And how it's worth living. It is, it is. So let's get into the Fast Five Stories you need to know. You do do do do do. Well the Fast Five Stories that you need to know are brought to you by State Farm.

Our first story, the aforementioned Mark Zuckerberg news. He's going to be really excited that he got the number one spot. Thank you, Six Turts. You're welcome. Our first story, the aforementioned Mark Zuckerberg news. He's gonna be really excited that he got the number one spot. Yes. Ben Mark Zuckerberg dressed up as Benson Boone's for his wife's 40th birthday party. Not just dressed up,

he wore his outfit that he wore from the Grammys. He performed on stage at his wife Priscilla's birthday party. Everyone remembers the Benson Boone Grammy's moment. He wore the suit that pulled off. Blue jumpsuit. Jumpsuit, very Harry Styles. And it was cute, it was good. I didn't know it'd be like being replicated for years.

I didn't know it was the sort of performance that we're going to be replicating. Well, this is what Mark Zuckerberg does, right? He's a replicator. He steals ideas from his college roommates. He steals ideas from Instagram. He steals ideas from his college roommates. He steals ideas from Instagram. He steals ideas from WhatsApp. Like he's not an original person.

So the fact that he needed to put together a performance for his wife and he was like, oh, okay. Like I want people to think I'm cool. What's like the last thing people thought was cool. And when Benson Boone did it, everyone was like, oh, he's so hot. He's wearing a tight thing. Oh, he did the flip.

Oh, we love Benson Boone. We love that song. So Mark Zuckerberg was just like control C, control V. He's such a copycat. He's so unoriginal. And he's so that song. So Mark Zuckerberg was just like, control C, control V. He's such a copycat, he's so unoriginal. And he's so, like, I need Mark Zuckerberg to develop self-awareness. The world would be a better place.

I'm so tired of him making me cringe. Like, he's so lame. And this was just like the latest lame endeavor from the Zuckerberg family. For me, this is such a weird thing to copy. Like, I understand, I understand seeing something amazing and then copying it, but this was just so random. It was one performance in the night of nice performances,

but it's not one that's gonna go down in the history books. Maybe him and his wife are huge Benson Boone fans. Is Mark Zuckerberg a part of the space race? No, not in a capacity that is rich me. In a real way. That's so crazy. I feel like he would be because he loves to copy everyone and like.

Maybe that's next. I mean, don't take it off the table. It takes time. You're right. Oh my God, excuse me. It's a random thing for him to like plant his flag. I feel like Priscilla must love Benson Boone but that's also kind of random.

He has like three songs so far. Maybe she loves American Idol. Yeah. And it's just very- The thing is- If this was a Harry Styles thing, I would get it more. Cause he's like, you know, there's so many albums.

There's so much lore, there's costumes. Like this is just like, and I love Benson Boone. Like he's filling the Louis Capaldi shaped hole in my heart. You guys know that, but this is early stages. And it's also kind of a cringe thing to do. Like this is my gift to you where I'm the center of attention and I'm the star. And I get to dance with my backup singers

and I get written about in page six, but it's all for you Priscilla. Like that's something I would do for real. Like, oh, Ben, you wanted, I'll be'll be the star like it's so I couldn't hate this Man more like seriously I see right through him everything he thinks he's like he's pulling the wool over people's eyes I see right through everything Mark Zuckerberg like giving him so much credit like he was stealing the spots at Spotlight like no it's like this is my gift to you like I'm gonna make your butt clench Right so I know and like you, what about this is a present?

She must love Benson Boone. And I'm not gonna begin- So get Benson Boone to perform. He's not even that expensive and you're a billionaire. Yeah, that's what's also crazy. But I'm also like not gonna pretend to begin to like understand their relationship. The mind, yeah.

Them as people like separately together, like I don't think we have a lot of common interests. I just don't think that enough people are asking the question, like why couldn't you get Benson Boone? Like it's not like it's Beyonce. That's the wrong question. If anybody wanted to get Beyonce,

like it would be Mark Zuckerberg. I bet you can get Benson Boone for like under a million dollars and if he wanted to like make himself, oh, he could have also worn the blue thing and they could have done the flip together, like, but where is Benson in all of this? Why are we acting like this is some low budget affair? Why don't you make himself, oh, he could have also worn the blue thing and they could have done the flip together. But where is Benson in all of this? Why are we acting like this is some low budget affair?

No, the question isn't why couldn't you get Benson? Why didn't you? Why didn't you? Because you can. And then Benson commented on the situation. He commented on a post that was a new story about it. He said, I hope his nuts are okay. That thing is so tight.

And he also reposted the video of him doing it and said, Adzuck, you're wild for this. So he's like playing into it. He's not like- I don't think he wants to piss off Mark Zuckerberg. You know, like he could totally shadow ban him. We'll never see him again. But he's obviously not like, oh man, you crushed it.

Like so glad I sent you that overnight delivery. Like keep it bruv. Now, do we think that it was a replica or the exact same item? I think it was the exact same item. Cause you could see Mark being like, yeah, we fit into the same size. He said, Mark, how did you get my jumpsuit?

How? But like, did you send it FedEx? Did the stylist give it? I do think it was the same one because I do think that Mark would pride himself on getting the exact one. Right. As a gift to Priscilla. Don't forget, it's all for Priscilla.

Like Priscilla is so lost in this. I actually feel bad for her. Like this is truly what it's like to be married to a narcissist. Like nobody wants to see you sing and dance. It's Priscilla's party. I know, but it's like he has so much money that I think when he even does stuff that's cringe it's like she'll just so much money that I think when he even does stuff that's cringe, it's like, she'll just wipe her tears with the money.

Like, I think she just has to like compartmentalize, you know? And she knows who she married because like we think he's weird now. I can only imagine what he was like in college. And wasn't she like with him before he was anybody? That's what's crazy. These two are like deeply in love.

It's wild. That's why I'm saying like, I felt like there was like Priscilla liked this. This was for Priscilla in some way. Yeah. I just don't understand these two, honestly. If someone's at my birthday party and their gift is taking all the attention away from me, like divorce.

But in a way that's like not pardigy. Like if someone's at my birthday party and they sing me like, like if Sia, when she's at her birthday party, and they sing me a beautiful rendition of Happy Birthday. It's actually a gift is what you're saying. Or like Marilyn Monroe comes to my birthday party and jumps out of a cake, like,

oh my gosh Marilyn, you're such a good friend. I love that. If someone comes- Thanks, Mare. If someone comes to my birthday party and does like something weird. Yeah, and like Mark Zuckerberg doesn't have a talent. Like it would be more impressive if he like sat down

and coded in the middle of the party, like and like built her a website live. Like that's what you bring to the table and that's okay. Yeah, like a live Benson Boone fan count. Page, yeah. I'm building you a Benson Boone website. It's just so weird's that would be funny. Yeah. Right. Right. Right. Ben. He actually has one song. He now has two. He came out with one on Friday and when Mark posted the video, he was also like, congrats on the new

song Ben. Ben. Ben. Soffer. Yeah, that's what I thought you were gonna say. Ben Soffer. You can't call Benson Boone Ben. He's not a Ben. No, his name is Benson.

No, but like as a nickname, like. I would call him Olivia. I will call him Bence. I would call him Olivia, Liv. For Benson Boone? Liv nickname, like. I would call him Olivia. I will call him Bence. I would call him Olivia, Liv. For Benson, boom? Liv Benson, yeah. Oh, okay. Olivia Benson.

Oh, I thought the joke was just like something completely random. Oh no, our brains are wired a little bit differently. Yeah, that's funny. Yeah, thanks. I tried, that was the goal. No, no, no, not funny, not Olivia, not the joke. The fact that we're on such different pages.

Oh, well, I think that kind of speaks to how funny the joke was because, because like I obviously had one meaning for it and people probably saw that, but then you were able to come up with a completely different, but also hilarious joke. So if anybody didn't get like the SVU reference, they were able to come up with a completely different but also hilarious joke. So if anybody didn't get like the SVU reference, they were able to find, you know, other meaning in the joke.

I think that really speaks to the brilliance of the joke. There's something for everyone. Curecht, the very inclusive joke. Those are my favorite kinds of jokes. Same. Are we ready to move on from this party story that has brought us so much joy? Honestly, no, it delivered in a way

that I didn't expect it to. Like I knew I would have some funny thoughts on it because I saw it in like physically cringe, but I didn't know that it would bring a tear in my eye. And lead me to write one of the greatest, most prolific jokes of my career. You know?

These inspiration strikes in such unexpected places. I kind of feel like Mark Zuckerberg, you know? Like a true genius. Funny, that's funny. I'm seriously gonna cry. funny. That's funny. It really was such a funny joke. Look at her. Keeps going. It's the gift. It's a gift that keeps on giving. Mark Zuckerberg could learn a thing or two. It's Priscilla's gift that keeps on giving.

Zuckerman could learn a thing or two. It's Priscilla's gift that keeps on giving. Oh my God, dream guest on the toast, Priscilla. 100%. You know what I wanna do? Yeah. Like there's so many people that I just wanna ask one question. Like I don't wanna have a 40 minute episode.

Speed dating podcast. I don't want a 40 minute, I don't have a whole conversation to be, but there's a question I owe, and it's not like anything exposed, like I'm not sure, like. No. But like just a curiosity.

Yeah, it's like a speed dating type of bite-sized content. We don't need you for an hour, 15 minutes will suffice. We have one question. Yeah, I like that. Our next story, oh, very serious. Millie Bobby Brown is calling out bullying. She's calling out the bullies for the criticism of her appearance recently.

So Millie Bobby Brown has been like in the news, like, and also just online. She's been beep bopping around. Yeah, because she's been at different premieres and stuff in different gowns and her look has changed. And she's got blonde hair. She seems to have done some fillers. She looks very mature.

Yeah, and people have a lot to say about it as they do. Now, I never watch Stranger Things, so I don't care. No, me neither. This doesn't, this is so not my problem. I have no expectations for what she should look like, and I'm not disappointed when she doesn't. The people that do watch that show, that's why there was such a reaction to it,

because she's been known and got famous as a prepubescent child, she was 10 years old. So people have this fixed image of her in their minds, because every celebrity, especially women, goes through, especially women, women go through changes and they do work, and there's not always such a big thing about it, but because Millie Bobby Brown was like a famous kid,

people are like more obsessed with it, I think. Yeah, and I guess just also because of her appearance on the show, you know, anything other than looking like 11, like it's hard for them to digest. Right, right, bald with a bloody nose. So right, it's really like, I'm sure she's like grateful for the role, but like hates it.

It's like a prison. Yeah, so people have a lot to say and they weren't being nice And so yeah, she put out a video To fire back at the quote disturbing discourse about her physical appearance after she was criticized for looking old at the premiere of Electric State Last week she said quote I want to take a moment to address something that I think is bigger than just me something that affects every young woman who grows Up under public scrutiny. I started in this industry when I was 10 years old. I grew up in front of the world,

and for some reason, people can't seem to grow with me. She claimed that her critics expect her to stay frozen in time and still look the way that she did in the first season of Stranger Things. That's funny, that's what I said, and I didn't watch the whole video because it was clear she was reading off of a script and I wasn't interested. Yeah, she was being a little too well-spoken.

No, it was like a PSA. I'd like to take a moment to address, and was reading off of a script and I wasn't interested. Yeah, she was like being a little too well-spoken. No, it was like a PSA. I'd like to take a moment to address, and like literally reading off of something. So I'm like, okay, I'll just read the transcript later. Which is now. So she went on to say, and because I don't look like Eleven, I'm now a target. She also called out several headlines and reporters

for mocking a young woman's appearance. The fact that adult writers are spending their time dissecting my face my body my choices. It's disturbing She also emphasized that it's even worse that some of the articles are being written by woman Well, she said women. Sorry. I don't want to put that on her. Oh, okay Go back to school. I had my own flair. Sorry. She said women so How old is Millie Bobby Brown? 21, I believe.

She's married now. Like she has definitely grown up in the last couple of years, especially because that show like hasn't been on. Yes, and her appearance has obviously changed. Now I feel like for me, you know, obviously, you don't want to talk about a person's appearance, but Millie Bobby Brown seems like

in a happy, stable phase of her life. Life, yeah. So if she wants to go off and dress and do whatever she wants, like this set, like a happy, healthy person, like go ahead, it might not be what I would do, but like I have no issue. I feel like there's more- And that's also being 21.

Like that's what you do. You play with your luck, you try different things. Obviously she's like a wealthy, famous person. So her things, like we try new lipsticks and she maybe tries new plastic surgeons, but like that's what you do when you're young and then you look back and regret it. Like I think that there's nothing abnormal about this.

Like in the world that she lives in. No, but also like I'm looking at her and when I really zoom in, like it's really the hair and the dress and the makeup. And it's like, she's just putting on a costume and the next day she tries something else. Like it's not that serious. I feel like there are a lot of people who walk around

and their appearance is like questionable. And it's like, because there's probably something deeper going on. And that's when I'm like, okay, is that person okay? But Millie Bobby Brown seems okay. And if she wants to wear these fake bangs, like go ahead. I agree. As long as they appear to be sound of mind,

I'm not like super worried. Yeah. And nothing about this is giving like a red flag. Nothing at all. No, there's been a lot of talk about that like as it pertains to Cynthia and Ariana who are both like very, very thin, which can be a sign of like distress, health issues.

Like it can be a red flag to like something more major going on. I think when people talk about it, they talk about it from that POV sometimes. But you're right. Like Billie Bobby Brown is like, appears to be really happily married. She's a very successful young woman.

She got Florence by Mills, that like kids makeup company that just won't quit. When she announced it, I'm like, good luck to you, ma'am. But she's like one of the few celebrities who launched makeup lines that are still going. Like launching, I see them all the time on TikTok. People really like it. Yeah. I think Murphy going out of business was like one of the time on TikTok. People really like it. Yeah.

I think Morphe going out of business was like one of the best things that happened to Florence by Mills. I'm happy for Florence by Mills. Yeah, so she's got a lot going on. I agree. That's a good perspective. And then even if someone's like looking like crazy, I feel like we wouldn't, I might like think it

or say it to you privately, but like, you don't, it's not something you even say publicly cause we just don't do that. But I'm saying like, even when I see Millie by Brown and she's like making style choices, I privately, but like, you don't, this is something you even say publicly because we just don't do that. But I'm saying like, even when I see Millie by Brown and she's like making style choices I wouldn't make, like, I'm like, this girl seems happy. Like, carry on. Also, like she's so young, she's 21.

Like, what were you wearing when you were 21? Calm and carry on. Totally. Yeah, so, lighten up on her. I feel like she like, is always like, defending herself. In the middle of stuff, Yeah. In the milli. In the milli. Are you ready for our next story? It's a little Oscars fallout and like actually the one thing we didn't discuss from the Oscars, which I did have thoughts on, but Doja Cat is

admitting that her nerves got to her during the Oscars James Bond tribute and she hit some flats. I was gonna go off on the performances and then I completely forgot. We'll talk about the weird Bond performance, but I just wanted to say this was another one of my hot takes that I forgot to say yesterday, because you know I would like seriously lay my life out on the line for Queen Latifah.

Like I think she's like the most wonderful person. That performance was not good. She did not have good stage presence. Her vocals were not good. I don't think she was the right person for the tribute, honestly. What did she do? I haven't, I didn't see it. She, I don't think she was the right person for the tribute, honestly. What did she do? I haven't, I didn't see it, I haven't heard.

Oh, it was for- I didn't even know she was there. Oh my God, the Quincy Jones tribute, she did a lead song from The Wiz, and it was like, it was a big production, like dancers and lights, and she was the main singer, and like, she didn't have it, I'm sorry. And I love her, she did not possess the qualities needed.

I understand. And she was intro'd by Oprah. Like it was a big thing. And who was with Oprah? Whoopi Goldberg. It didn't make a peep Claudia. I didn't even know that that happened. Cause it wasn't good.

And like, you know, it pains me to say that cause that's my queen, Miss Motor Mouth Maybell. Like I didn't know that was happening. Oh, what is that from? I didn't know that was happening. That's what I wanted. Yeah, come on, help me. Oh, wait, finger. That's what I wanted.

I didn't know that was happening. It's what I wanted. That was a really good reference. Thank you so much. But anyways, there was a James Bond tribute that was newsworthy and we didn't even talk about it. So Margaret Qualley opened with a dance number, our girl crushed it per use.

What can't she do? I was confused. Like I love her. What was she doing? No, I don't know. Why were we highlighting Bond? Not even, a Bond movie didn't even come out this year, let alone even needed.

I thought it was like maybe an anniversary, nothing. It was a nothing. And they made a point to cut down on performances this year. Usually every song that's nominated in the song category, those are the performances throughout the night. No, what was also weird is like, you know these shows wanna get shorter, but then there were so many segments that were so long,

like even for best supporting actress. And I don't know if they did this for all the acting roles where the person reading like read off. Like, Regina George, like even for best supporting actress. And I don't know if they did this for all the acting roles where the person reading- Yes, they did, five people. Read off, like, Regina George, like, you broke your back and you look awesome. Like partial screen-

Yeah. Like saying nice things about everyone. And you could feel which ones the person hadn't seen, which were just like, just nice platitudes. And they were trying to like talk to them in the audience while also looking at the teleprompter. So they're like, Zoe, your work and courage was everything.

A partial spring queen. Yeah, that's a really good point. So yeah, they did, and they tried, they started earlier too, like they were very time conscious and then we get like a 10 minute random James Bond tribute that nobody asked for that was actually not good. No, it was not good, but there was definitely the capacity and the potential for parjeaness and it just did not hit. So first, can I tell you who showed up for work that day though?

Ray. And the more I see of Ray, the more I like. The more I see of Ray, the more I like, but I didn't love this and I'll tell you why. But just going in order, I liked Margaret Qualley, girl can dance. Who knew? She just like looked confident, like she was having fun. I'm telling you, Margaret Qualley is on her way, like she was having fun. I'm telling you, Marguerite Quelli's on her way, like to real, and she already is, like she's at the Oscars. She's out nepoed her nepotism, like privilege, but she is, everything I learned about her, like personality-wise, talent-wise,

I just saw her in The Substance, which was so different from the last thing I'd seen her. She is a star. Agreed, and then Lisa from Blackpink and now White Lotus. Yeah, I didn't think she was so great. She was cute. Like I like her and I was like, oh, okay, this is fun. Like where are the rest of the girls?

Like Lisa left them in the dust, but okay. She did. And then Doja Cat performed like a big song, which she did not possess the qualities needed. Right. I felt the qualities needed. Right. I felt the same way. Like it was this big, very like sexy Bond girl, big vocals.

And that's not what I see Doja Cat as. Like she's a lot of things. She's kind of like a hit maker, really on trend. I don't think of her for like that sort of, I don't, I think of Ray like that. She's very Amy Winehouse. You think about the girls who do the Bond songs, Adele, like, I don't know, Doja Cat felt really random to me.

Yeah, or like, yeah, maybe I don't think of her in that way, but maybe when she sang, like, oh, she would shut me up and she, it just wasn't that. But she said, so she acknowledged that, like, it wasn't the best. And she said that she put a lot of work into the performance, but the nerves got the best of her and a bitch hit some flats.

She said, I never get to sing like that. And what I did was brave and scary as fuck for me. I know a lot of people didn't like it, but a lot of people didn't. I feel good that I pushed myself. And then- No, I appreciate that. Like the Oscars is a really big deal for most people,

even people who have done Coachella. Like there is something like special and different about it. Especially a genre shift. Big, yeah. So I understand like what she's saying, but I'm sorry, that's just not good enough. Like this is the rock, this is the Oscars. That was like when Selena Gomez like got flack for her

acting in Amelia Presse. And she was like, I'm sorry, I tried my best. Right, I thought you were gonna say when she got flack for that like wild performance, she did it like the American Music Awards. Like that's not scary. No, but also like this wasn't wild. This just like wasn't great. And I think like this American Music Awards. Like that's not scary. No, but also like this wasn't wild. This just like wasn't great.

And I think like this called for greatness. But no, like just this idea like, but I did my best. Right. Wait, who said that to me recently? Oh, Ben, when like the way he loaded the dishwasher or something, I'm like, just so you know, this is unacceptable. Like all the bowls are turned up. So they are filled with water. We have to run the dishwasher again. He's like, just so you know, this is unacceptable. Like all the bowls are turned up, so they are filled with water.

We have to run the dishwasher again. He's like, well, I tried my best. I'm like, that's not fucking good enough. It was such a crazy response. I think it was just so he wanted to try something new with me yelling at him about the chores. So he's like, well, like I did it and I tried my best. So like, what do you want from me?

I'm like, what do I want from you? I want you to fucking do better. I want it to be great. It was such a, I'm like, who do you think you're talking to? It was such a crazy response. Right, and I think it's like a little bit of a crazy response here too, but I like the accountability and I like, we can move on.

And then Ray also said in a separate post that she was so nervous to sing this song because no one can sing Adele like Adele, but she tried her very best. I thought she did good. I wasn't offended. I wasn't offended. I wasn't offended. And I've seen, right, she also performed

at the other awards that we watched recently. Grammys. And I never heard her sing before and I was very impressed. Me neither. But I do think that when someone who sounds like Adele like takes on Adele, it'd been better if it was someone that wasn't so similar because then you're just comparing it to Adele.

And then the question is like, why didn't Adele come and sing? Yeah, but I think that at this stage in her career, that's a good for Ray that we're comparing her to Adele. I think more so her stick is that she's compared to Amy Winehouse. To me, she sounds like both in a good way. I like that genre of British woman just singing.

I like Ray, I think she's super cute. Every time I see her on social media, she's having so much fun. She's not so serious. I think she looks serious, because she's British and sings fancy sad songs. But she's like super cute. Every time I see her on social media, she's like having so much fun. Like she's not so serious. I think she like looks serious cause she's like British and like sings fancy sad songs. But she's like a fun loving gal. And she's like loving this journey.

She can't believe she's famous. I'm holding space for two truths. Agreed. So then other fans expressed, expressed displeasure saying that it was like a pointless tribute. It was. And it was. It was extremely pointless.

But it could have been really amazing. Like imagine if it was amazing and we'd be like, how cool. Like we wouldn't be questioning why it was. It was extremely pointless. But it could have been really amazing. Like imagine if it was amazing and we'd be like, how cool, like we wouldn't be questioning why it was there. We'd be grateful that it was. Yeah, but like the three women like made no sense together. Like it was all bad and bond question mark. And someone told me they have a song together recently. Like that doesn't mean you perform at the Oscars.

Did they sing the song? No, no, but that's why it was like them three. I don't know. I'm just wanting to make note of that. Cause I could see someone being like, but they have a song together. No, they were trying like maybe to be like pink Beyonce and Christina and Christina from the Pepsi commercial

and try as you might, you will never be those three. No. Are you ready for our next story? Four? Four. Okay. The theory is untrue. Debunked.

It's a little Dave Portnoy news because he's making waves talking about the financial relationship that he has with his ex-wife. Have you seen this? Oh yeah, but it's not his ex-wife. A lot of people don't know he's legally married. Like his wife that he's separated from, that he's not with whatsoever, but they're not formally divorced. And here's why. So he went on a podcast, the Sage Steel Show, and he explained their

situation. He said, we met when Barsul was nothing. So she rode the grind up with us. Still currently, basically, she has access to all my money. I just wanted to be like, I'm taking it. If she wanted to be like, I'm taking it and gone, she could. So they got married in 2009 and she was with Dave until 2017 they separated, but he made a lot of money over the course of that time. They went to get a divorce in Massachusetts and they were denied.

So they're still technically married. That person asked, how can you deny a divorce? And he explained that it had to do with their money. Her and I have a very fluid relationship with our finances. He said, she's not like give me half. And we've been separated legally for a long time. The judge said our agreement wasn't equitable to her. They're like, he's worth a lot more.

You have to give half. She wouldn't take half. She didn't want half of his fortune. And so they just stayed married. She has access to his bank accounts and can do whatever she wants, but she won't take the money. He said they're gonna try and get divorced in Florida, but they've had a joint bank account forever and he trusts her implicitly.

That's crazy. Who the fuck are these people? I don't want half. Give it to me. I'll take it. And like she has access to all the same money that he has and he like, you know, has a million homes and- And it's crazy because in 2017,

he was probably worth less than half than he's worth now. So now if they have to get divorced, she might be entitled to $100 million, when in 2017, maybe she was entitled to $25 million. Yeah. So she just made the problem worse for herself, if that's really the issue, she doesn't want it. Worse, she played longhand.

Right, right. This is like Mackenzie Bezos, I don't want it, I got played longhand. Right, right. This is like Mackenzie Bezos, like, I don't want it. I got 36 billion here, let me give it to everybody. Like, I just don't relate to these people on any level. Like, at all. No, don't relate, but also like that is just so crazy. It's actually really nice. Yeah, it's very admirable, like the trust that they have.

Yeah, and I think that like- I ship. Get back together. This comes up like every couple of years, people like, damn, Poirnois married? What? Like they don't know that he ever was married and that legally he still is.

I don't think these two like hang out ever, but they seem to be on really good terms. It's like a crazy thing. You know, whatever works for people works. Yeah, but if you ever want to get married. But I guess that means that neither of them, right. Or if she wants to get married. Will ever get married or can ever get married again.

She will have to accept a hundred million dollars if she wants to. And a new husband? Oh no. Some people just can't catch a break. I know, it's devastating to watch. What's her name? Renee, right? Renee. And I wonder if she works. I wouldn't. She probably does. Like.

Yeah, she's that type of bitch. She's probably like a teacher. Yeah, and she probably doesn't take Dave's money. Although I can't see a teacher having been married to Dave Portnoy. But you have to go all the way back. Yeah, he was worse back then. He's tame now.

Maybe she thought she could change him. I mean, a teacher would think that. That's what teachers do. Maybe she takes a little from the account, like spurge on supplies for the children. Oh, that's nice. Like kind of teach for America type vibes where you have to like pay for everything. Yeah. Like a couple more posters.

Never stop asking why. Thumb tacks for everyone. Glue sticks. I'm at the part in Desperate Housewives where Susan Meyer is a teacher. And I just, I want to call child services. Like it's, I fucking hate Susan Meyer more than I ever could. Can I tell you what just happened in last night's episode?

I'll be brief. I don't want to like bore you. And it's not a spoiler, but she's fallen on really hard times. They have to move off with Stereolane. Mike takes a job on an oil rig. She has, and she just lost her job as a teacher. And so on the reverse, like Lynette is finally for the first time,

like financially fine. She had got a huge job with Carlos. She went on maternity leave and Tom took her job. So they have this big job. She's able to hire a nanny. It's like amazing. And she's working on like a fun project with Vanessa Williams.

They're becoming interior designers. It's nice to see Lynette after like eating shit for years, finally being in a good place. So she's hiring a nanny. And it was actually Vanessa Williams' idea. Susan, Susan needs a job. She's a former teacher and like you trust her, like perfect. Oh, Susan accepts because she has no other choice

and she has such a fucking chip on her shoulder. She's like being such a nasty little bitch the entire time. And then they try sleep training the baby. And Lynette is like very cutthroat. So she's like, listen, she'll cry for 20 minutes. And then she'll cry for 19 and like, we'll be fine. You just have to put up with the crying. And Susan's in the corner.

I can't hear the baby cry. Literally starts crying. Oh my God. And she literally like on the sleep trains the baby, like keeps picking up the baby and Lynette like doesn't know. It is the craziest episode. This woman is maniacal. Whoever wrote the character of Susan Myers hates women.

Like if I ever met a person who actually was even remotely similar to Susan Meyer, I would run them over with my car. But no, I feel like you have, there's annoying people out there. And for every Lynette, you know, you can't just have five women that you like. And of course, and even the women that I like, like they do things that I don't agree with

that I find them annoying. I have never found something Susan said or did to be funny, admirable, cute, moral, right. Like she is consistently stupid and wrong. I just wonder like are in that situation, like with Lynette, like, are we meant to be with Susan or in any of these situations, are we meant to feel for Susan? She is the protagonist, weirdly.

So this is what bothers me about the show, is that she's so clearly wrong, and then when she gets confronted, instead of Lynette being empowered, it's like she starts crying that she's having a really hard time, and it's like, oh, poor Susan. We don't get resolution.

Interesting. She should be fired. Yeah, I just, I wonder what we're meant to feel. I know what I feel, but I wonder like what they intended. I think what they intended like wasn't the audience's reaction at the time, so they quickly shifted Susan's, because she is supposed to be the main character, but she very quickly stops becoming it.

Like this is- But then also she's like beefing with all the girls behind the scenes. Right, and I think that like the part that I'm up to is definitely like the peak of the beef because Susan has literally moved off of Wisteria Lane and a lot of her scenes are not with the other women. Yeah, she like, she's poor, so she moves off the lane,

but I think it was a way of like getting her away from the women while keeping her on the show. Wow. Yeah. If only they knew we didn't want her. Yeah. Why don't they just kill her off? Yeah. Or, you know, she can move across the country. No, but like Desperate Housewives loves to kill off main characters.

Yeah, they do. And it's kind of a good thing of the show. They like, anyone, it could be gone in a minute. Yeah. Are you ready for our fifth and final story? If it's our fifth and final story, that's brought to you by Netflix perchance. Perchance it is. So the new comedy series running point on Netflix is whatever.

It's the name on everybody's lips. It's number one on Netflix. It's only been out for like a couple of days. And it comes from hit maker Queen, who we were just talking about at the top of the show, Mindy Kaling. And it stars everybody's favorite Queen of Romcoms, Kate Hudson. So the show is really edgy, it's hilarious. It's a twist on the underdog comedy. It features Isla Gordon, who's played by Kate Hudson

and her rise to the top of one of the most iconic professional basketball franchises and her dysfunctional yet lovable family trying to block her shot. So she's like an epic queen. Her family owns this big basketball team, but a scandal forces her brother to resign. Isla is then appointed to president of the team.

They're one of the most storied OG LA basketball franchises and it's her family's business. So she's super ambitious, she's often overlooked, but she has to prove now to her brothers, the board, the sports community that she was the right choice for the job, especially in the unpredictable male-dominated world of sports. She may not have been part of the original playbook,

but as the skeptics will soon learn, she's calling the shots now, like it or not. It's a really fun and easy binge with sharp and edgy laugh out loud moments. It has a couple of things that you know it's gonna be good. It's made by Mindy Kaling, she's never made anything bad. Kate Hudson is a star, and also the cast, you're gonna be on IMDB the entire time,

being like, where do I know this person from? It launched a couple of days ago, so you can watch it now on Netflix. Everybody's talking about it, It's called Running Point. I'm sure when you open the app, it's like right there, because it's number one. It's really good, so enjoy that. And today's episode is also brought to you by Good Ranchers.

We're having a party. Pop off. Our fifth and final story is some legal news. Jay-Z is actually now suing the young woman, the Jane Doe, who accused him of rape and an explosive lawsuit who had since dropped her suit and now she he is suing her. So Jay-Z claims the Jane Doe who accused him of rape and an explosive lawsuit knew full well no such thing ever happened and now he's dragging her to court over it. The music and fashion mogul just filed a lawsuit against his anonymous rape accuser and her attorney, Tony Busby. Busby?

Classic Bus. What's his name from uh... Read my mind. Sing. Buster Moon. Yeah, I always think of Buster Moon when I hear Tony Busby. In the lawsuit obtained by TMZ, Jay claims his accuser kept pushing her false rape story in the media and in the courts despite allegedly admitting the assault story wasn't true. He claims that Jane Doe told Busby he didn't assault her and the lawyer, quote, pushed

her to go forward with the false narrative of the assault by Mr. Carter in order to leverage a maximum payday. He calls the whole thing an evil conspiracy to get him to pay Busby a large sum of money to keep the allegations quiet, even though they both knew they were pushing lies. So here's the thing. It's such an egregious story, this whole, this allegation. And if it's not true, like I fully understand Jay-Z taking this all the way to clear his name because these are the types of allegations,

even though the thing has dropped, they stay with you forever. So you wanna fight it as hard as you can. If it is true, and now this woman who spoke out is being taken to court by her abuser, like it's the most horrible, nightmarish thing you could possibly imagine, you know? Yes.

And she has spoken out since and said, she sticks to her story and said that he's intimidating and terrifying her. So it is confusing why that he then dropped the suit. But when I first saw that he was suing her, I was like, well, if this is untrue and she like, he did, she did defame him then because we can't not. Yes.

We can't not, we can't just like forget that that happened. Of course. Like ever since it's come out, like it's definitely clouded how you see him. So. And I also feel like if he wanted to go away, he might've just like accepted that she's moved on or dropped it and not like brought it back up to the floor. And now that it's going, that he's suing her,

like things are gonna come out. So it's an interesting move. Yeah. That I think like speaks to an innocence. Yeah, of course, because if you're guilty and the person drops the charges, you're taking the win and you're shutting up. Yeah, and you're not gonna excavate more.

No, and like make more news stories and remind people about this. You kind of got away with murder. So I agree all sides point to this potentially being innocent. I don't know. Yeah, but she is saying that Jay-Z is trying to bullying her into saying the accusations are false because even though she dropped the suit, she didn't say that it's not true. She didn't say she like made it up. Yeah. In documents, she claims that she was recently

approached outside her home and cornered by two people who told her they were investigators working for one of Jay's lawyers. She claims that people tried to get her to sign an affidavit stating that her rape claims against Jay-Z were false, but she refused. She also claims the alleged investigators asked her if her attorney, Tony Busby, sought her out as a client and offered her money to pursue false claims against Jay-Z.

Two allegations she says that she denied. Yeah, see, also I could see this, a world in which like this person who just wanted to like speak her truth, wants to know part of this. Like it's something that terrible that happened to her. Now she's being like harassed and intimidated by like one of the most powerful wealthy men in the world. Like I could see her dropping it for that reason.

Not because it's not true. So it's just a terrible story. Yeah. Because the nature of like the original allegations are so apparent. Yeah, and now she's in a scary place. And now we're suing her. And like the public is left confused.

Yeah. Right, and now she's taking on the financial burden of being sued. Yeah. So. Was that the fifth and final? That's the fifth and final. Okay, let's dive into Dear Toasters,

our weekly advice segment. So every Tuesday, Jackson and I help out a swirly in need. You can email us, deartoasters.gmail.com or head over to our website, thetospodcast.com. We'll read three submissions every week, trying to help out girls going through relationship issues, hygiene issues, recently a lot of breastfeeding issues, whatever it is, it's totally anonymous, don't worry.

We'll never start stuff. And if you have written in to us and we've read your submission on air, if you have an update for us, we have an update today. I would love to hear from you. Warning, today's update is not the one we were hoping for. It was a fun little one we had a couple of weeks ago and it's pretty recent, so I'll get to it later.

Hello, Swirlies, long time listener and a big time fan who's in need of some serious help. I have a five month old baby girl who's being cared for at home by a nanny two days a week. For the second time in a month, I have gone into my bathroom to discover a giant shit left unflushed in the toilet. I think the nanny is worried

that a flush might wake up the baby, but what do I do? My husband says I need to text her asking her to please try to remember to flush, but I'm so non-confrontational and the thought of it just makes me want to die. Do I suck it up? Do a pre-flush before opening the lid? Please help, sincerely a grossed out mama.

I just have to say, it didn't occur to me that like she might've been leaving the turd in the toilet like for the sake of the baby, which makes me think she's a good nanny, which is all that matters. Yeah, no, and it's like, if you like everything else about her, then like this can be solved.

I actually liked yourself of like, if you actually don't want to confront her, but I do think that you should. If you don't want to, you could just do a pre-flush before you open the lid. But I think that you could text her literally saying what your husband said and that way it's not really a confrontation if you don't like. He could write the text and send it from your phone. Just like it should be said.

I know, but then you embarrass this woman who's taking care of your baby. Like I think in terms of priorities, and I've never hired a nanny before, but trust me, I will. I feel like the priority is like, is this a sound of mind person who's keeping my baby safe? Okay, her bathroom habits aren't ideal, but again, it's not that she's forgetting to flush

for no reason. If the baby's sleeping and it could wake up the baby, that's really thoughtful, actually. So I know it sounds so crazy, but I might find a way to live with this because it is so hard to find a nanny you could trust. A flush in another room like really shouldn't wake a sleeping baby.

Okay, but maybe this is like a really sensitive sleeper. Is that a thing? Yeah, but she might have a set. She probably has a sound machine if she's so sensitive. You can flush in another room. If she doesn't, maybe the solve here is a sound machine. Yeah, but if your baby's sleeping without a sound machine, honestly, like don't bring one in.

They're kind of- Sleigh, yeah. Like it's a sleigh, you crushed it. That's true, so I guess we'll just like live with the turn. But also like if your baby's sleeping without a sound machine, then they can sleep through a flush. That's true.

We need more details on your baby's sleep schedule. I think it's okay to say, and also like you don't want to set this precedent of like, you don't want to ever tell, like, you don't wanna ever tell, you wanna be able to just be like, hey, quick feedback, just flush the toilet. Yeah, I guess you need to be comfortable giving feedback to the person who's taking care of your kid.

Or you can even say, it's like, I appreciate that you don't wanna flush, you could just assume the best in her. I'd say, I appreciate that you don't wanna flush the toilet when the baby's sleeping, but it's totally fine. She won't wake up. Please flush the toilet when she's sleeping.

She is able to sleep through that. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. But if you really don't want to and everything else is perfect and you're never gonna have another issue with her again. So why even note this one blemish?

Sure, do a pre flush. Yeah, yeah, yeah. At least this isn't like finding things out about your nanny as far as like what you could find out. Oh, you're totally fine. That's nothing. She's got healthy digestive system. Yeah.

Okay, next up. Hey Jackie Owen-Clern, I misplaced my phone the other day and I grabbed my husband's phone to call and locate it. I typed wife into the search bar, that's my name in his phone, and another contact came up under the name work wife. No, jail. I was obviously pissed and I asked him about it.

He shrugged it off, said his work colleague put her number in there while they were on a work trip a few months ago, just in case he needed to contact her. Contacts that were seven people on this trip. He claims he didn't realize that that was a name she put in and changed it to her name when I requested him to do so. Should I be worried?

Sincerely, a confused newlywed. The Work Wife is not a thing. I hate. Hate. And the thing is, is that work wife has become like something people talk about, right? And I like how there's no work husband. I know like people say that, but it's not, it's work wife.

No, and it's like, who came up with the term work wife? Who, it was the woman. Of course. It wasn't the man being like this. It was the wife. It was the work wife just like wanting to feel special. Yep. And maybe it's a funny joke when people are single.

Maybe, not funny to me, but people have different senses of humor. Like Claudia thought Olivia Vinson is a good nickname. People are different. I can't lose it. But when you have a wife, you no longer have a work wife. Do you think that there's something nefarious going on? Do you think there's something nefarious going on

between him and this lady? No, but I think, and that's a different question. Like I'm gonna operate, no, that there isn't. But I think like workwifery like speaks to an immaturity and a lack of seriousness that I don't put up with. No, when I think of work wife, I think of two single people working in an office who like call each other their work wife in the hopes,

it's like a flirty thing. So anybody who's engaging in work wifery, who has a real ass wife at home, nefarious by nature. Immature at best, nefarious at worst. You do not have a work wife when you have an actual wife. You've been given a gift wife when you have an actual wife. You've been given a gift of finding out about this and you need to keep your eye on this woman. I'm sorry, women can be Jezebels.

And her putting herself in as work wife, girls. Come on, stop it. There is a character, there's this blonde girl on TikTok who does this character. She's such a good actress, I fucking hate her. And Jason, Jason, she is like someone's work wife and like she's always doing skits like when the wife is around,

be like Jason, can I have your jacket? I'm kind of cold. Like she kind of sounds like Kris and Cavallari. She's insufferable. Like she makes me hate. And I don't, like Ben doesn't work in a conventional office. This has never been like something I've experienced. I think there's a special place in hell

for women who refer to themselves as someone's work wife. Yeah, I agree. Like that's not a good look for women. No, we need to work on that stat. And maybe- Work wife erasure. Work wife erasure. If they won't stop being married in the office, then you should find her partner.

Yep, get a job at his company, and become his work wife. A relationship. Checkmate. Checkmate. Now, because last week I had to run off of DT with a duty, I am gonna do a third submission and then the update, because the update's very brief.

Even though we did three submissions last week, you're acting like we were in the red. No, last week I rushed through the final one and I had planned on doing four. You promised four, but we did three. Yeah, so I'm making it right. Hey, Jackson Turney, I found a pair of black lacy thongs in my husband's nightstand.

I knew they weren't mine because I wear an extra large and these were a small. When I questioned him about it, he said he bought them from an OnlyFans model and he showed me the bank transaction. He says, this is totally normal. All guys do this. I think it's extremely strange

and I don't understand where he's coming from. Is this normal behavior? I assume these are like worn undies, right? That's like a thing. Otherwise he could get them from Victoria's Secret, yeah. I'm sorry, I say this is a thing. I mean, it's a thing for people in prison. Right, so I don't have personal experience with this,

so it's hard for me to weigh in, but like people, these girls make a living. So people do buy this. Now, do married men buy this? Yeah, probably. Is it nefarious? Secretly. Secretly, yeah.

If you come to find out, like it's not good and they have to wean. I'm sorry. And what needs to be said here as somebody who wasn't extra large for most of my life, if like my husband's engaging with other women's undies, like I'm upset. If it's a woman three sizes smaller than me,

like now I'm also feeling insecure. And like, I, like, cause you're, you're interested in something so visually different than what you're married to. Like that's a red flag. Is that crazy to say? Oh, I don't know. Sometimes you like to wear big undies,

even if you could be medium size. I like a big undie. Yeah, but she said, like, she wears an extra large. I guess, no, but a thong, you don't wear a big thong. You wear a thong that fits, true to size. Okay, that's a different issue. I didn't even think of that, but like, I'm really trying to think practically.

Oh, that was my first thought. Because of course you want, like, someone did something bad, divorce, but like, this is your husband. So like, what can you do? I think that like you need to cut, like cancel his credit cards. Like he shouldn't be allowed to be on the internet shopping.

Agreed. He really has to do penance. Like this is not, this is not good. Yeah. And I think it's okay for you to say like, I'm not comfortable with this and I want you to stop. Yeah. Yeah. And it's her or me. Yeah, it's the undies or me.

And like, she's never gonna choose you, so I'm what she got. Right, right. And there's something like really losery about a man like thinking he's special to an OnlyFans model, like get a grip. You are one of millions. You're just a transaction.

I'm trying not to judge, because I'm trying to like, there are millions of people who buy these underwear. So there's a lot of people out there like this. Now I think this is probably something that could be rehabilitated if he's an otherwise P-Jom who has a predilection for undies. She didn't say that by the way.

She didn't say P-Jom anywhere here. Like, do they have kids? Are you gonna end it all over a couple pairs of panties? She didn't say that. And I don't think they have kids and I don't think that they should end it, but like, I don't know, give me the ick if like, not only that he's like buying undies,

cause that's just like a weird like kink thing, but like he obviously thinks he's like special to this woman, you know? Like that's the ick, like dude, you're like, she's paying her rent, like you are nobody to her. Yeah, I feel like he needs rehabilitation. I love that. And that it's potentially possible, like maybe a bit of counseling. I feel like he needs rehabilitation. I love that. And that it's potentially possible,

like maybe a bit of counseling. I feel like this is something that needs to be like a watershed moment in your relationship. Not just like, not a small fight, I don't like this, don't do it again. Sweeping it under the rug. Like as if you found out he was an alcoholic. Like he's going away,

you will not buy anything from the internet. I'm putting on parental controls. Like I think we need to take it really seriously, make a really big deal about it so that he recognizes it that way. So our update is from a girl who wrote in a couple of weeks ago about the C-section that was scheduled on her sister-in-law's birthday.

Remember in the sister-in-law was being like a big whiny bitch about it? I'll reread the submission. So my C-section for my second child was scheduled at the end of March. It happens to be the same day as my sister-in-law's birthday. She's in her late 30s. I received a very bizarre text message from her

going over some of the potential challenges of sharing a birthday. When I read this, I was super confused and then I was in shock. She was getting so bent out of shape over having to share a birthday with her future niece. Backstory is that my first was a very traumatic delivery. We're both very lucky to be here.

So I have a lot of nerves and anxiety. And I just did what the doctor said in terms of date of the C-section. She asked us what to do. Our advice was to text her back saying grow up. Grow up. Okay, here's my update. I responded back to her text message,

basically called her selfish and childish. I may have even said, can you not go to dinner the night before like anyone else? What can I say? I was full of pregnancy hormones and very upset about the whole thing. Long story short, she thinks I'm being insensitive about whatnot and we are not on speaking terms.

Fast forward to yesterday, I ended up going into preterm labor and had my little lady early at 33 weeks. We are both doing well. She's being a little fighter in the NICU. This whole thing is so silly and pointless, yet guess who has not reached out to me to ask how I'm doing. Sisters-in-law, what can I say? That's my update.

Love you ladies. Can I just say this went from like a sisterly spat to like sisters in law, what can I say? That's my update. Love you ladies. Can I just say this went from like a sisterly spat to like actually unforgivable. Like your baby's in the NICU and your sister-in-law doesn't come by to visit or even text how you're doing. Like, okay, that's like a,

that's a relationship ending thing. Yeah, no, she's done you a favor. You're not speaking great. You don't want to speak to her. Like this is it, it's over. She's not coming. She wouldn't be invited. Like the fact that we were having this argument at all

proves how immature and like stupid she is. But the fact that like now a baby came into this world, the baby came early, the baby's in the NICU. Like we drop everything stupid because this is what life is about and this is what matters. And the fact that she didn't. And she's not on her birthday.

Oh right, you won. The fact that she hasn't reached out, even if you had a baby, like not dramatically, like it all went perfectly. And the baby's not in the NICU. She might have reached out to the husband. I feel like what she was saying is, you know, she might've checked in on the baby

via the husband, because she said she didn't check in to see how I'm doing. She didn't reach out to me. Yeah, she said, who hasn't reached out to me and asked how I'm doing. Yeah. That's still, like the husband didn't do anything. Sorry, like it's not his time to be checked in on.

No, no, no, but he, she might be keeping up with the baby via the husband. But yeah. She's a bitch. You're being devil's advocate. And seriously like ride this wave, like don't, great. I don't want to know you. I don't want to see you.

You can't come see me. And don't retaliate. I'm attached to my baby. So if we're not speaking, you don't see baby. Yeah. And don't retaliate and give her, cause she's so, like you are the victim here. She is the villain. Do not retaliate and give her, because she's so, like you are the victim here. She is the villain.

Do not retaliate and give her anything to be upset with you about. Like you've won. You don't have to see this person ever again. Like she's a bitch and fuck her. Yeah. Cut. Cut it out.

Clip. Clip. That's Dear Toasters. Yeah, that's right. I did an extra one. I feel like- Because we were like running really on time today. I feel like Dear Toasters this week were like running really on time today.

I feel like dear toasters this week was just like not great for women. Is it ever? Like some women are really not showing their best selves in your toasters. I just want to say, I'm grateful to all the toxic women in the world because they make dear toasters what it is. Dear toaster spinning round.

And the crazy husbands, of course, but like the crazy toxic friends. But I'm grateful to like the OnlyFans girls selling their undies, like for men to buy and keep your toasters popping. Agreed, it's the Bonnie blues of this world that keep your toaster spinning. There's degrees.
