Good morning, millennials, and welcome back to The Toast.
Happy Wednesday.
It is hump day here at The Toast, a gorgeous, beautiful, fine day.
We love hump day.
Hump day.
Hump day.
And I am joined in studio by, you know, very appropriately, someone whom I wouldn't mind.
I take advantage of hump day.
Exactly.
Every day is hump day in our home.
Every day is hump day.
I'm joined in studio by Ben Soffer.
Jacqueline Follet has fallen ill, and, you know, she trudged.
She got through two shows this week, but we gave her today off.
She's really not doing well.
So Ben is here instead, which is honestly so appropriate.
Why is that?
Okay, so you don't listen to the show.
Thanks.
Yesterday on the show, we had a conversation like about free will.
Let me just ask you, Ben, do you think we have free will?
I do.
You do? I do, yes. So I was saying, like, what's will. Let me just ask you, Ben, do you think we have free will? I do. You do?
I do, yes.
So I was saying, like, what's stopping one of us from just, like, quitting?
That's a great question.
Letting others down.
Of course.
The consequences.
Yeah, but all these things are emotional.
You could easily quit.
So what we had said was that like if one of
us quit who would we replace the other with ah and so i my answer was obviously you yes jackie
had said she'd hold auditions between olivia and margo who ah who cut it interesting interesting
so she didn't say me no she didn't say you why would you expect her to no i mean i just won't
be filling in for her anymore so jackie if you'd like Olivia and Margo, then whenever you fall ill, fall ill, you can call them. You can arrange their travel.
It's so funny how you like took that as an insult because it was really like a nice conversation.
It was? Yeah. I don't see it that way. Oh my God. You're so like such victim mentality. I don't see
it that way. I chose you. I know, as you should. Because I am the obvious choice.
But it's fine.
It is what it is.
Wow.
You're kind of getting like a bit of a big head.
You're looking pretty great in that hat, speaking of big head.
Thank you.
You know, we're both wearing hats.
I mean, you always wear a hat on the toast.
No, but you say I don't listen, but I know that we're in our hat era.
Okay.
So you watch the clips on Instagram.
That's true.
We talked about hats on the clips.
That's why.
It's true.
I can always tell when somebody references toast moments that only were made into clips. I'm like, oh, so
you don't listen to podcasts. You just watch the clips, which totally counts. We appreciate the
engagement and at any, you know, in any way. It is a great hat. I got it at a Drake concert. I know.
And you're wearing a hat too. I am wearing a hat. But you always wear a hat. It's our new good guys
merch. So yeah, let's talk about that. Yeah. So you're kind of like, oh my God, did anybody hear that?
Yeah.
I thought literally we were being robbed.
I think somebody like UPS just dropped off a package, but they must have thrown it at
our door.
Yeah, that was crazy.
No, my heart just stopped.
Are we just still running?
Yeah, we're still running.
Okay, so UPS definitely took an entire box and chucked it at the door.
Like they didn't place it on the floor.
They like, one, two, let's do We Can Break, three.
Yeah, that was terrifying.
Because that's the sound of like somebody coming to kill you.
No, that was very scary.
Oh, my God.
But we're fine.
We're fine.
We're all good.
All good in the hood.
Settle yourself.
Merch.
Well, yeah, I wanted to talk to you because clearly you have a big head.
Yeah.
And I think that comes from the success of your personal podcast.
It does. It does.
Every time you're here the podcast gets bigger and bigger. You and Josh have just been killing it.
Thank you darling.
So yeah like go off.
I love it. It's just so fun and to any toasters that aren't listening I think
you're just like being a little stubborn. Like it's a really really great funny good show.
Maybe they're just being loyal.
You would really no you can listen to both. Like you can listen to both. It's once a week. show. Maybe they're just being loyal. You would really – no, you can listen to both.
Like you can listen to both.
It's once a week.
Yeah.
Like we're just basically giving you a bonus ep.
It's true.
That's it.
It should be a part of Patreon.
Yeah, it's a bonus ep.
It's just extra.
We have so many amazing guests. Oh, you call it ep now?
Yeah, bonus ep.
I'm such amazing guests.
You do.
Like Josh and I, we do the solo episodes.
Those are amazing.
But then the guests, week or uh in two weeks
chris di stefano yeah it's because like your co-host is an actual celebrity who like by the
way when did i i take the handouts i'm not saying that we like i wasn't attacking you i'm just
saying that's why you have an amazing amazing guest no we have amazing guests because we have
an amazing show you know of course of course now there's kind of like a controversy in your
community is there that i think we should address tell me me. Where in the world is Miranda Cosgrove's
episode? Yes it's coming. So because of SAG. You guys recorded an episode with
Miranda Cosgrove who of course played Megan in Drake and Josh. That's like an
iconic moment in pop culture. It was. It's gonna break the internet when it comes out. You
don't stop talking about this episode. You recorded it and it never came out. I
know because of SAG.
SAG ruined everybody's lives
and like the fact is
like as a member of SAG
You're not a member of SAG.
I'm really, really happy
that I fought
with my brothers and sisters
to get us the right contract.
By the way,
you're not a member of SAG
but you were a SAG
compliant podcast.
I was.
We were.
We were completely.
You followed all the rules.
We were completely.
We followed all the rules and we spoke completely. We followed all the rules.
And we spoke too much about future projects, current projects, past projects.
With Miranda.
With Miranda.
That we couldn't air it.
But Miranda's episode will be a Christmas gift.
It will definitely air sometime in December.
Okay.
Famous last words.
It's like, give the people what they want.
No, I promise.
Where's the Miranda Cosgrove episode?
I promise.
It's coming.
Promise.
There's like a conspiracy theory that like.
Oh, there is?
Maybe you never recorded it
is there really
maybe you guys were lying
are people really talking
no no no
oh you're making it up
so do you
but every time the good guys
like gets talked about
like in our comment section
people are like
where is Miranda Cosgrove
got it it's coming
it was sag
I'm sorry
also like
that episode was recorded
so long ago
and I know that the podcast
is just better
so like I hope the episode
is still good
it is it is
don't be so hard on yourself
that's how you know you're a true podcaster constantly striving for greatness.
It's true. We are. Well I'm so proud of you and Josh. Thank you darling. We need to have you back
on the show. I'm on all the time. You were on once and the episode was amazing. Excuse me I was on
twice. When was the first time? When you first launched. This doesn't count. You were on once
and it was amazing. By the way, do you see how
black blue my shoe is here?
Yeah.
So, Nike I found out has a 30-day return policy. We're on day 29.
So, I'm gonna take these puppies in, shop them out.
One thing about Ben's offer, he will be reading the fine print of the return policy. I've never seen anyone make
returns quite like Ben. I saw him return a pair of pants. I'm not gonna say the
store because I don't want to get you in
trouble. That literally you wore like the entire time we dated for years and they
had a hole in the crotch and you literally returned them.
And did it work?
Yeah.
It did.
What's your secret?
What's my secret? You know just...
And where did you learn...
If you don't try...
It's true.
All they could say no.
What's the worst thing they could say?
What's the worst thing that can happen?
And where did you get that sort of tenacity? I once watched my father return 25-year-old Gucci loafers.
What?
What?
I once watched him return them.
How?
I don't know.
And the person took them.
And he got new ones.
Were they worn?
Were they worn?
They were worn for 25 years.
These are the oldest shoes.
These are like his grandfather's shoes.
That's so Brucey.
Yeah, so I don't make, I'm making it seem like I make returns.
Or we're making it seem like I make returns quite often.
All the time.
You never do.
I don't.
I never do.
Just because I'm too lazy.
But when I do.
When you put your mind to something.
When I put my mind to something, I can do it.
So I'm going to return these bad boys.
Because this is also just staining.
No, that's a crap pair of shoes.
It's just staining.
They didn't age well in the 25 days.
They didn't age well 25, 29 days.
Let me ask you another question.
Was it difficult growing up with a father named Bruce?
Why?
Because of Matilda?
Yes!
Oh my god, how did you know I was going to say that?
Because it's iconic.
Bruce is such an iconic name.
I agree.
Bruce Springsteen.
Bruce Soffer. Bruce Willis. Bruce Willis. Totally an iconic name. I agree. Bruce Springsteen. Mm-hmm. Bruce Soffer.
Bruce Willis.
Bruce Willis.
Totally.
Strong name.
Bruce is a great name.
And even though the people you just named aren't, it's a very Jewish name.
Yes.
Is Bruce Springsteen Jewish?
He's just from New Jersey.
What a question.
I don't think he is.
I don't know.
The last name's Steen?
Yeah, but I don't think so.
No, I don't think so either. I don't think so. Because nothing about him is Yeah, but I don't think so. No, I don't think so either.
I don't think so.
Because nothing about him is Jewish,
except the fact that he's from New Jersey
and his name is Bruce.
Yeah, yeah.
Speaking of Jewish, there was a fabulous event
in D.C. yesterday.
Fabulous.
Over almost 300,000 people showed up in D.C.
to march against anti-Semitism.
It was one of the most beautiful things
I'd ever seen in my life,
and I had so much fucking FOMO.
It looked incredible.
I just want to say yesh har koach to everybody who went.
It was a beautiful sea of blue. It was really, it was stunning, and I was very much fucking FOMO. It looked incredible. I just wanna say yesh ur koach to everybody who went. It was a beautiful sea of blue.
It was stunning, and I was very proud to be Jewish.
Yes, me too.
Always proud to be Jewish,
but yesterday was a great day,
and I do wish that we went.
Yeah.
And just from the videos,
it looked like there was such a great concert.
Like, Omer Adam, who just has been unbelievable.
Omer Adam is basically the Taylor Swift of Israel.
He's the biggest star ever.
You probably like have actually heard some of his music here in America because it gets
so popular.
Yeah.
You wouldn't know that you know him.
He was there but you should look him up if you don't know him.
He sang the national anthem.
Oh my god it was chilling.
Mati Siahu was there.
A legend.
Love him.
One day, one day, one day, one day, one day, one day, one day.
You should become like a Jewish Orthodox rapper.
I could do it.
I know you love Nisim Black.
Love him.
He's amazing.
He does music, right?
Yeah.
You should do it.
He's great.
I'm down.

Thank you.
Unreal.
So soft, delicious, pillowy.
Oh, so now you're taking my advice
where I said you were overpromoting yourself too much.
I know you're channeling that energy
towards promoting myself.
By the way, I don't over promote myself too much.
I over promote everything too much.
Your projects.
No, I over promote you.
You do.
Nobody over promotes you more than me.
It's true.
No one over promotes you more than me.
Always remember that.
No one over promotes you more than me.
You don't want me to promote myself?
You don't want me to promote myself.
I'll just stop promoting in general.
I'll just stop promoting in general.
I'll stop promoting.
I'll stop promoting.
I'll stop promoting.
I'll stop promoting.
What do you think of this sweater?
I think it's nice.
I think you look great.
Thank you so much. Do you want to tell everyone? I think it's nice. I think you look great.
Thank you so much.
Do you want to tell everyone?
Have you spoken on Good Guys about how you're off Ozempic?
We might have briefly.
I have been off Ozempic though for six weeks now.
How's that going?
It's going well.
I've recently started a fitness journey.
I will say, and this is not a plug, I'm taking athletic greens
every morning and it's really, I'm like so freaking awake. I told everyone on the toes
yesterday because AG1 was a sponsor. I'm loving it. I'm loving it. And I think that that's really
helping. I'm going to the gym. That said, like what Ozempic is really good at doing is quieting
the brain at night where it's like, hey tubby stop eating right stop eating so that thought is now gone so i'm having trouble again from the 9 p.m to 12 a.m time slot which
many of you may be able to relate to and yeah you know shit is off the rails when ben walks into the
room with his nerds robe like yeah no what nerds clusters that's ben's like everybody has their
thing like they'll like for me it's an Entenmann's chocolate chip cookie
like I don't care
if I'm on
like death's door
if you offer me
an Entenmann's
chocolate chip cookie
like I will eat
the whole box
yeah
that's my thing
your thing
very weirdly
because it's not even
like savory or good
is nerd clusters
yeah the nerds clusters
are really good
ice cream is really good
and the problem is
I can't have a spoon
of ice cream
no you can't
I have a pint
yeah
and I can't have
a gummy cluster I have a bag so I cream. No, you can't. I have a pint. Yeah. And I can't have a gummy cluster.
I have a bag.
So I need to stop bringing this stuff into the home.
That's what I told you.
I know.
I know.
Every time Ben orders a GoPuff, like we know we're in trouble.
I know.
I order like 9,000 things on GoPuff.
Shout out GoPuff.
So all in all, how would you describe the post-Osempic?
Because that's what everybody wants to know.
It's great.
Look, it's completely doable.
I'm up one pound in six weeks and that's only because i'm just not being mentally strong enough
but i can do it and i will continue to lose weight post ozempic i'm in the gym i'm feeling so much
better what everybody knows my fitness journey is the soda method like i'm very loyal to the
soda method i don't i don't try like a bunch of different, I'm not the type of girl like I need to do
one manageable workout
and like I really like
the Soto Method.
What are you doing?
I'm doing the Live Method.
Oh, of course, right.
Same as Margo.
Matt owns the gym.
He's my trainer
and he's the best.
Yeah.
He just,
he explains it to me
in ways that I really like
to understand it.
Like he tells me
like the chemistry behind it
and why we're doing certain things.
Over other things.
And we're really.
We're working on stretching me out.
Like making me longer.
Because I'm so tight.
We're also strengthening my big toe.
I didn't know I had a weak big toe.
But that's why I'm a little bit pigeon toed.
Because I.
Oh my god.
If this trainer.
Yeah.
Can fix your pigeon toed.
And I am not always tripping.
Over your fucking feet.
Yeah.
I swear to god.
I will. Get that man a key to the city fucking feet yeah I swear to god I will get that
man a key to the city if he can fix that I will do anything he wants how are you gonna get a key
to the city that's the thing I'll be don't make prom I'll be so passionate you make promises you
can't keep oh please honey Dijon bath oh it's like a decade old who brings it back up okay let's talk
about that anybody who listens to the show I know we always have like so many new listeners, so
you might not know some of the history, but today we're going to explain.
But OG girlies will remember that Ben made a promise on the internet.
What was the goal you needed to-
One decade ago.
You needed to achieve?
It was 100,000 likes on this post.
Ben said if he got 100,000 likes on this post, he would-
A different Instagram.
He would take a bath, but instead of water, it would be honey mustard.
Feasibly, it just doesn't...
There was no way to do it.
I never intended not to do it.
I just want to let you all know.
That does not...
I would do it.
Right, so no, by the way...
Where the hell...
I would give a key to the city.
Okay, fine.
Totally.
If I could do it.
God, I can't throw bullets.
I can't shoot bullets if I'm not ready to take them.
Those in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.
My God.
Okay, you're right.
You're 100% right.
Thank you.
Give him a key to the city.
No, I'm just saying, I didn't know that your toe thing had anything to do with you maybe
not being in the best shape.
Yeah, so it just, I'm relying too much on the front pad of my foot.
Not enough on the toe the toe is what
keeps it in a straight line balanced I love that so working on my balance uh we're doing some dead
lifts we're doing some we're really strength training so watch out folks no I love that I'm
hoping to get a little ripped I really like I think for both of us like who've some people like
get into fitness like early on and it's like a huge part of their life. Fitness becomes like so exclusive and it's very hard. It's unaccessible. And I think it's
really hard to find like trainers or programs that feel like they're good for beginners. Cause
it's almost just like an inner circle and it's like, you have to work hard to get in.
I think that the key is, and not enough people talk about this, when you're fat,
you don't have the mental motivation to go
to the gym. No, and there's also so many elements, especially as a girl. You don't want to be in
tight clothes in front of people. You don't want to do a class because you can't keep up and you
feel embarrassed. But what everybody wants you to do is go hard in the gym and eat really well.
I'm telling you the key. Eat really well for six months. Go on Ozempic. Don't go on Ozempic.
Whatever you want to do. Lose 30 pounds just eating.
And then try going to the gym.
And it will be so much easier mentally, physically, emotionally.
The idea of going to the gym when you're at your fattest is not the right way to get somebody to stay in the gym.
It would be great.
And sometimes I think like, damn, I wish I started going to the gym when I started my whole health journey,
which was a year ago and I only started going to the gym
like four months ago.
But I know that was never,
like that's not a possibility for me.
Like I was so unhappy in my body and I was so embarrassed.
Like I don't think I would have been able to do
five minutes on the treadmill.
It's also just hard.
It would have been disheartening and discouraging.
The moves would have been much harder too.
Of course, of course.
That's what I'm saying.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, so we actually have a lot to do today. We need to stop dilly-dallying. Ben moves would have been much harder too. Of course, of course. That's what I'm saying. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, so we actually have a lot to do today.
We need to stop dilly-dallying.
Ben, I have one question for you.
Are you ready for the Fast Five Stories that you need to know?
I'm ready, but can we play Beat the Crunch?
Okay.
Come on.
Wait, let's get, okay.
Are you ready for the Fast Five stories that you need to know?
Where aren't you going?
Oh, take a bite out of your...
That's why we do crunch.
Oh, wait, what are we saying?
Oh, here are the fast five stories that you need to know
before you take a bite out of your morning...
Toast. I let you win. I definitely beat it. What do you mean you let me win? toast
I let you win
I definitely beat it
what do you mean
you let me win
I let you win
by the way
by the way
I'm sorry
removing that
was like removing
a piece of the toast soul
I know but we
aren't the morning toast anymore
and because the toast soul
has been removed
listen to good guys
it's just
we wouldn't do that to you
if we had a staple
like beat the crew
by the way talk to me when you've been around for seven years true true big truth this show it's just, we wouldn't do that to you. If we had a staple, like beat the crew.
By the way, talk to me when you've been around for seven years.
True.
True.
Big truth.
This show that is rooted in history is brought to you by State Farm.
The State Farm personal price plan helps you create an affordable price just for you.
The plan's all about being personal to you and your needs.
And that means you're getting the coverage you want,
a policy that helps cover what's important to you,
and an affordable price just for you.
Because after all, life is just better when you can personalize your experiences.
So think about it like this.
From your go-to coffee order to your favorite pair of sweatpants, we know you love to personalize
your entire day.
We're always saying here at The Toast, so many things are so personal.
Comedy, food, poetry, insurance.
I mean, what's more personal than insurance?
Nothing.
Speaking of, I know you saw me hanging out with Jake from State Farm.
I did.
Did you feel threatened in any sort of way? I did, especially because he only comes
at three in the morning. And he's really like a celebrity. I know we joke that you are, but he
really is. Who joked that I am? Did you feel threatened? No, I didn't feel threatened. I'm
a legitimate celebrity. We hobnob. Me and him. Me and Jake. Are you worried? Yeah. About me and
Jake? No, I'm worried about me and Jake. I'm very taken by him. I'm going to call Jake. He's going to come to come to me three in the morning and then you'll feel left out personalization just makes everything that
much better State Farm believes insurance should work the same way your plan your coverage your
selections can all be personalized by you because think about all the things in your life that you
care about your home your car your family flooding wherever you live so many things are so detailed
and personal to you in your life situation and State Farm understands that. So like a good neighbor,
State Farm is there.
Prices vary by state.
Options selected by customer.
Availability and eligibility
may vary.
Let me try that one more time.
Like a good neighbor,
State Farm is there.
Oh my,
that stunk.
Like a good neighbor,
State Farm is there.
No, do it again.
Go.
Okay.

Think back to sex ed for a moment.
You probably learned all about how to prevent pregnancy, but what about how to plan for it?

is all about. It's an easy and affordable way to test your fertility hormones at home with a simple,
simple finger prick. Mail it in with a prepaid label and you'll get your personalized results

All right, Benny, you ready for these stories?
I am quickly.
You'll notice that I'm wearing my glasses and not wearing my contacts.
And would you like to know why?
No, but go off, King.
I ran out of contacts.
They gave me a sample pack, right?
I went to 1-800-CONTACTS to order them.
Thought that they were ordered last week.
Canceled my order this morning out of the blue.
Disgusting.
And I didn't even know why.
They don't want you to see.
And now I have no contacts. And there's no way.
Why can't I walk into a store and get contacts?
Why is it so hard?
No, I.
You walk into a glasses store.
Where the fuck do people buy contacts?
That's actually an amazing call.
Like the purchasing of contacts is so needlessly laborious.
You need to have a guy.
Like it's like drugs.
Totally.
Like I need my contact dealer.
Like, what are you nuts?
It's a great call. That's a great what are you nuts. Terrible. Okay. Like, I need my contact dealer. Like, what are you, nuts? It's a great call.
That's a great what are you, nuts.
Terrible.
Okay, ready for our stories?
Yes.
In no particular order.
There's no one big story today, but they're all very impactful.
Hit me with them.
This first one is devastating news.
Tell me.
Young Sheldon will end with season seven at CBS.
The series finale date has been set.
Fuck.
So Young Sheldon will end its run at CBS
with its upcoming season seven.
The Big Bang Theory prequel series
is set to return on February 15th
with a one-hour series finale set to air on May 16th.
The season will be shorter than those before
due to the truncated nature of the 2023-2024
because of the SAG strike.
So it's ending and we get a short season?
So here's what the CBS person said. As a prequel to one of the biggest comedies, Young Sheldon proved lightning can
strike twice. It set itself apart with a remarkable cast that felt like a family from the first moment
we saw them on screen and brought characters to life with unique heartfelt stories that drew
audiences in from the start. We extend a sincere thank you to the executive producers Chuck Lohr,
Steve Malaro,
and Steve Holland,
and the entire writing and producing teams
for six wonderful seasons.
We look forward to seeing
their final season unfold
and giving a proper send-off
with the best episodes yet
for their fans to enjoy.
Is it Lohr or Laurie?
I don't know.
I only ask because
this person's saying
we proved that we can
strike lightning in a battle
twice on the same show.
Like, no.
Chuck Lohr or Laurie?
Genius.
You know, when his name
is on something like You Know, everyone on the show is getting
rich.
So good.
I mean, you're right.
We're being robbed because not only is this precious show ending, it's a shorter season
due to the strike.
So we're just screwed.
We're screwed.
And if you don't watch Young Sheldon, and I'll go as far as to say you don't watch
The Big Bang Theory.
I don't watch The Big Bang Theory.
She doesn't.
And that's because you, for whatever reason, have this preconceived notion that these aren't cool shows. No the Big Bang Theory
is a show for losers. No it's not. And it's a loser-y show and it's horrible. Like even after
I got into Young Sheldon I gave Big Bang Theory another try. I can't believe it's one of the
it's like a bigger than modern family. You never got into it. It's like the people that are writing
comments to us saying I I watched, because we recently
started Gossip Girl.
I'm sure you've been talking about that with them, re-watching Gossip Girl.
People are like, I couldn't get through the first three episodes.
They're so cringe.
Like, yeah.
Have you watched the Friends pilot?
It's bad.
Like, have you watched Seinfeld's first episode?
Like, you need to give these iconic shows at least a season or two just to, like, let
them, like, there's a reason
there's a reason
these shows are so popular.
No for sure
but like saying
you need to give a show
two seasons before it gets good
like well then we can
all just agree
it's a bad show
if two seasons are unbearable.
So then not before it gets good.
Maybe start on season two
and Wikipedia
what happened in season one
just because the acting
gets better.
These people get closer.
And so just have like
no interest in Big Bang Theory
like none of the characters
speak to me.
None of the actors speak to me. I just I don't like Big Bang Theory. None of the characters speak to me. None of the actors speak to me.
I just don't like Big Bang Theory.
Fine.
But Young Sheldon really is.
Which is better?
They're very different.
I think Young Sheldon is a more well-rounded show.
It's such a pure show.
Big Bang Theory is funnier.
Okay.
Young Sheldon is like, it's actually an amazing show.
It's one of the best shows I've seen
and the fact that it is ending
is obviously devastating
but the whole concept of the show
is that it's a prequel
so it couldn't go on forever
because there's another show at some point
and it's about Young Sheldon
and in the beginning
the first couple of seasons are the best
because the kid who plays Young Sheldon
is maybe eight years old
he's the cutest kid ever
and he grows up
and he gets to
high school and you know kids go through that awkward stage. And it's not like
this cute little young Sheldon anymore. It's like a grown you know pretty
pubescent teen. And it's definitely changes the the vibe of the show.
It definitely does. But it's about so much more than Sheldon. His grandma.
Mima. His dad. Who would you say is your favorite character?
For me, it's the dad, George Cooper, hands down.
Yeah, between Mima and George Cooper.
I don't know who though.
Mima's great too.
I can tell you emphatically that my least favorite character is Mary Cooper.
I disagree.
My least favorite character is actually Sheldon.
Oh.
No, look.
The show is here because of him.
But he's still. That happens a lot though with big shows. Right right now it's not great that is always what happens with big shows the person who the
show is about yeah carrie bradshaw is the worst most insufferable character susan from desperate
housewives no you're right that always happens you're absolutely right i i tend to be absolutely
right so yes i forgot to put on underwear today. You forgot to put on underwear?
Yes.
Wearing sweatpants without underwear is like weird.
Wow.
Just sharing.
So, this is devastating.
Yes.
Rip Young Sheldon.
Yes.
But I'm looking forward to the final season.
I'm sure it'll be great.
I, too, am looking forward.
And if you haven't watched it, you should really give it a try.
It was probably...
Well, we also just got off The Nanny and we're doing Gossip Girl.
So these have all been great rewatches. And I did tell everyone on the toast yesterday
that you've never seen The O.C. I haven't. And that you
absolutely must. Oh, somebody told me, because we were talking about yesterday
how we think about The O.C. and we forget, because it's a show about
these rich kids who live in O in Orange County. And the show is actually
very Jewish because the family that it follows, the Coens, are Jewish, but you
don't think of it as like a Jewish show like you would think of it in Annie. And
somebody pointed out that the creator or writer, I think his name is Josh Horowitz,
of the OC actually eventually left the OC and went to Gossip Girl because we
were watching Gossip Girl and there's so many Jewish references and Israel references
in a positive way.
There are.
Yeah.
And we were like, this is so random.
Even though it's a show about New York and all the Jews live in New York.
But I think that's why, because of that guy.
Interesting.
Yeah.
By the way, we need to talk to him.
Yeah, no, he's great.
He's great.
Makes a good show.
Give everyone a quick, what are your thoughts on Gossip Girl?
I love it.
I've always loved it, though like I loved the original watch and the re-watch though
like you're looking at this and you're like I was really allowed to watch this when I was 14
yeah with cocaine there's like they're like blowing lines yeah no it's not it's insane and
it's like like following like these kids as they're supposed to be 16 we were the same age as
them yeah it definitely was crazy to watch
Gossip Girl in high school thinking that this is what kids did in high school.
Crazy. That said, such a good show. They're all really great great actors and
Blair Waldorf is the best character by far. Was it a part of your
high school experience? Because for me where I went to high school is where they filmed Gossip Girl.
They filmed in the city, all around the Upper East Side.
And during, like, our free periods or during lunch, like, on our Blackberries,
there would be, like, people on New York, if they were filming,
like, you would find out instantly.
And, like, you could take your free period.
Yeah.
And literally part of my life was following them around
and, like, hoping to see one of them coming out of their trailer. Did you do that?
—Not like to the same extent, but I do remember that, yes.
—It was just like a part of everyday life when we were in high school.
—It was. It was. And it definitely fed into BlackBerry BBM culture.
—Yes. —Big time.
—Did you have your BBM pin memorized?
—I did, yes. I don't remember it anymore.
—Me neither. —But I did.
—It'd be crazy if you remembered it.
—I did.
—All right. We have a little bit more TV news.
—Tell me.
—Shocking.
Bobby Burke is leaving Queer Eye after season eight.
So a member of the Fab Five is saying goodbye.
Bobby Burke is officially leaving the Netflix series after season eight.
The designer who stars on the show alongside Karamo, Tan, Antony, and Jonathan announced
on November 13th, he said, it's not been an easy decision to be at peace with, but it's
a necessary one. Although my journey with Queer Eye is over, he said, it's not been an easy decision to be at peace with, but it's a necessary one.
Although my journey with Queer Eye is over, my journey with you is not.
You will be seeing more of me very soon.
The love that I've received from you all over the last six years has been absolutely surreal.
You have tuned in and been dedicated fans, and together we were able to share the healing
powers of design.
I learned from you all about kindness, love, and acceptance, and that has changed my life
for the better.
Basically just being like, love you, I'm out know there's a multitude of things going on here. I think everybody like is curious
like what's the tea? I mean young Sheldon only gets seven seasons but Queer Eye gets eight. No it's
by the way it's also crazy because like when Queer Eye came out seasons one and two like do you
remember the chokehold it had us in? We were like laying in bed crying. Yeah. And I feel like nobody
watches it anymore.
I definitely have not watched it since season two.
Right.
And I'm surprised that they're on season eight.
Me too.
But also what I'm surprised by is there have been like rumors about some of the guys not
getting along.
And it's pretty much known that Karamo and Antony like really didn't get along in the
beginning.
Like they just did not.
They were just different guys.
So the fact that Bobby's the one leaving is shocking
now of course
everybody's making jokes
Bobby was the chef?
no Bobby's the one
who literally
builds them houses
why did I think
he was the chef?
Antony is the chef
I'm sorry
Bobby is the blonde one
yes yes yes yes
who literally
like on the episode
you know Karamo takes him
oh yeah he's the one
I remember
does all the work
he does all the work
but they don't ever show him
no and then he just
they all just come up
to like a brand new house.
Yeah.
By the way, I would leave if I was Bobby too.
Yeah, maybe he's tired.
Totally.
Of doing everything, but getting none of the air time.
So true.
But also, I kind of feel like I could see Netflix giving him his own design job.
Totally, yeah.
That's what he deserves.
And I have to say, I met Bobby.
Literally the nicest guy.
I don't think he's like a diva who can't get along with people. Because I met him at E! News. Like
we were just in the same green room and he was so nice. And he had no idea like
who or what I was. He just thought I probably was like some assistant.
Really nice.
Love it. Yeah, he should get his own show.
But I do wonder if they're gonna replace him. Because I remember when they were
casting for Queer Eye, a friend of mine who's gay and a hairdresser in LA was like talking about the casting. It is the role of a lifetime. Like every gay hairstylist, interior
designer, chef. It's like the dream job. Because you become really like a
cultural icon. And it's one of the most, the fact that anyone would walk away
from it is shocking to me unless unless he had a bigger opportunity,
because it is the,
one of the best jobs in Hollywood.
Like, you just become so famous.
So I wonder if this means
they're going to replace him,
or they're no longer going to be doing houses.
But the thing about Queer Eye,
in the original show,
it's a fab five.
There's always five of them.
So I do think they're going to replace him.
So who is like a fab gay interior designer?
But the thing is.
Are the Scott brothers, are either of them gay?
No.
Good guess though.
But the thing is about this show is that
nobody knew these guys before the show.
So they don't pluck famous people.
True, true.
But maybe like a, like an Instagram designer.
Like, I'm trying to think.
Sound off in the comments who you think would be a good replacement. I'm trying to think. Sound off in the comments
who you think would be a good replacement.
But this is shocking news.
And I wonder if he'll be the first to fall.
Yeah.
Oh, true.
It could be a domino effect.
Right.
Down goes Queer Eye.
Down goes Queer Eye.
Wow.
All right.
Are you ready for our next story?
This is a story I've been keeping up with a lot
and I'm shook by.
We talked about it
maybe two weeks ago the hockey
incident in the UK this has a chokehold on you to me every every night no it's definitely crazy but
every single night Claudia's like there's a there's a new development in this uh guy who
flung his skate and I mean a guy died on the ice right nuts it was in the UK it was in the UK and
what was so crazy is that like I guess nobody really me at least i never put together that like
there are blades on your skates and you're not wearing like a protector of your neck like i
never put that together i just assumed like the hockey leagues would have figured it out
neck guards well like you it's not a neck guard but like your helmet does come down there isn't a lot of room it's a very very bad
freak accident but like the the skate easily could have hit him in the face right the fact
that there's a neck but there are neck guards that's like a part of a hockey equipment but
they're optional and they shouldn't be yeah really dumb really dumb yeah so a man has been arrested
on suspicion of manslaughter after the ice hockey player's
death.
Authorities have released new details on their investigation into the death of Adam Johnson.
Two weeks after the ice hockey player was fatally injured during a game, a man has been
arrested on suspicion of manslaughter, the South Yorkshire Police announced on November
14th.
The unnamed person remains in custody.
Wait, who else would it be?
Why are they saying the man, unnamed?
I don't know. Also, the South Yorkshire. This happened in the UK. Yeah, I else would it be? Why are they saying the man, unnamed? Also, the South Yorkshire.
This happened in the UK.
Yeah, I'm saying it sounds so cool.
Johnson, a member of the British Professional Club
of the Nottingham Panthers,
was playing in the Challenge Cup match
at Utilitia Arena, Sheffield,
on October 28th,
when he collided with a member of the opposing team,
appearing to suffer an injury to the neck.
The following day,
Johnson's team shared that he'd passed away.
According to a November 14th press release from authorities,
a post-mortem examination confirmed that the 29-year-old died
as a result of the fatal neck injury.
Our investigation launched immediately following this tragedy,
and we have been carrying out our extensive inquiries
ever since to piece together the events which led to the loss of Adam
in these unprecedented circumstances,
the detective chief superintendent said in the press release, we've been speaking with a highly
specialized expert in their field to assist in our inquiries and continue to work closely with
the health and safety department of the Sheffield City Council, which is supporting our ongoing
investigation. So I guess they haven't commented on who was arrested, but I think we can all assume
it's the other player. The one who put his skate in the guy's neck yeah this is like so crazy because and i was
reading tweets and like a lot of people think this was intentional that and i i don't it can't i i
saw the video you showed it to me this morning can't google the video yeah because it's really
not that gruesome it's not graphic but it's just crazy to see like you see what's happening you see that he went leg above his head he went to kick him
which is fucked up when you're literally wearing a knife on your foot yeah that said if you kick
him in the chest he's nothing yeah you kick him in the helmet the padding's nothing like it like
it doesn't it it's fucked up it's not manslaughter no so a lot of people do think it's intentional
and i don't agree with that like i do. No. So a lot of people do think it's intentional.
And I don't agree with that.
Like, I do think this was like a really reckless accident.
I think he wanted to kick him or hurt him, but not kill him, obviously.
But like, how do you reconcile that with the fact that like somebody just lost their son?
You know?
It's terrible. And his family's been very public.
They're distraught over this.
Like, it shouldn't have happened.
Of course they are.
But not to victim blame.
You got to wear the neck guard.
But the thing is, when it's not made optional, nobody, it's not like he wears, everybody
wears it.
But now they need to.
But so now this should be for the NHL, for everybody.
For everybody.
This really needs to be a way to call.
You have a blade on your foot.
It's insane that they.
It's insane that it was optional.
Or like your helmet should literally be attached to your shoulders.
Like it should be one whole thing.
There also needs, or like some better tech.
Like it doesn't need to be so bulky.
Like it should be one whole thing. Or like some better tech.
Like it doesn't need to be so bulky.
Like there's definitely like if you think about what's that like wiring?
Not like chicken wire, but like something, right?
That's like thin where if you kick through it, it doesn't break the seal.
It's a terrible story.
It is.
It's a terrible story.
He had a life partner.
It's a terrible story.
So sad.
And like honestly, like just crazy. I didn't know something like this could happen life partner. It's a terrible story. So sad. And like honestly, like just crazy.
I didn't know something like this could happen.
Yeah.
It's funny.
I remember like we all go ice skating as kids.
You do think about that with the blade.
It's like a knife.
It's like a knife.
And if it's not like a knife, you can't skate.
Like it needs to be as sharp as humanly possible for you to glide on the ice.
Why are we sliding on knives?
Like what's wrong with rollerblades? You can't put rollerblades on ice. Yeah. you to glide on the ice. Why are we sliding on knives? Like, what's wrong
with rollerblades?
You can't put rollerblades
on ice.
Yeah, you could just
have the floor.
Yeah, I understand, but...
Like, floor hockey?
No, but instead of
taking away the blade,
I think you take away,
like, what we said.
No, but, like, the fact
that this was even
a sheer possibility
is such a shonda.
It has to have happened before.
I don't think so.
I do.
And if immediate change
does it...
Like, for all leagues. I know hockey is really big in
Canada, in the NHL, like everybody should be looking towards this as a huge red flag.
And they now need to show Blades of Glory in schools.
Why?
Remember in Blades of Glory?
I've never seen it.
With the reason why, I forget the name of the trick.
You've never seen Blades of Glory with Will Ferrell?
You're lying.
Okay.
Figure skating movie.
Unbelievable.
He makes it to like the finals, whatever.
And this like incredible trick that nobody has tried since this guy had his head chopped
off by a blade.
Oh my God.
Yeah.
Because he like spins in the air.
His blade is up.
He like flips him.
Yeah.
Dead.
But obviously Will Ferrell does it unscathed.
Of course.
I don't remember the name of the trick.
Will Ferrell is so funny.
Probably the funniest guy of all time.
That's like such a crazy movie.
He's a figure skater.
No, no.
He's unbelievable.
Yeah.
You're unbelievable.
Another movie that everybody should see.
It's so funny.
I don't see like the classics.
No.
Ben had never seen my cousin Vinny.
These are my classics.
Ben had never seen my cousin Vinny up until recently.
Okay.
I had never seen my cousin Vinny up until like six years ago.
Yeah, when I found that out and made you watch it that day.
Yeah.
Great movie.
No Billiards of Glory, but.
Okay.
You ready for our next story?
It's a little sad news.
Ready, Freddy.
By the way, more sad than the person dying on the ice?
Well, somebody did die.
Oh.
Wow.
Morbid show.
Well, he didn't recently die.
Well, he did.
It's not news.
Matthew Perry.
And now some of the friends have come out with their tributes.
And of course, everybody's just heartbroken.
So Courtney Cox has shared a poignant tribute to Matthew Perry after his death.
She shared a tribute to her friend's co-star two weeks after his shocking death.
She wrote, I'm so grateful for every moment I had with you, Maddie, and I miss you every day.
She included a clip of one of her favorite friend scenes with Matthew Perry from the season four finale in
which Ross finds Monica and Chandler in bed together. To give a little backstory,
Chandler and Monica were supposed to have a one-night fling in London, but
because of the audience's reaction, it became the beginning of their love story.
In this scene, before we started rolling, he whispered a funny line for me to say.
He often did things like that. He was funny and he was kind. The actress who noted
that there are thousands of moments
she could revisit
uploaded her post just hours
after Matt LeBlanc
became the first Friends star
to take to social media
since the loss.
So we've now gotten
tributes from Monica
and from Joey.
This is just like...
Stinks.
This is just like
one of the saddest stories.
Yeah, it is.
And I don't believe
it's fully been confirmed
how he passed which is crazy it is and I I was one of those we spoke about this
on good guys I was one of those people that definitely jumped the gun and said of course
like an addict no I said he lost his addiction must have lost his battle with addiction I don't
I don't even know if that's true. No, by the way, it's not
and I felt so bad
after saying that
because it was just
like a dumb assumption.
For sure.
When he like,
I'm actually reading his book
for my book club.
I haven't started it yet
but I know a lot of it
is about, of course,
his journey to sobriety
but also the work
that he did
after he became sober.
He opened up
with his own money
like all these facilities
for men struggling
with addiction.
And so,
I hate that like I assumed.
Yeah.
Especially not thinking through.
Again, I don't want to like guess his cause of death.
That's not like a good use of time.
Game to play.
Yeah, exactly.
But everybody knows that hot tubs, hot tubs are low key dangerous.
I know.
You're like cooking your body.
And if you had like an Olympic size hot tub in your own
house, you probably spend a lot of time in it. And like you're relaxed and you don't realize how hot
you're getting and you overheat. Like I've gotten out of hot tubs and felt lightheaded.
I have gotten out of a hot tub, remember? Yeah, of course I do.
And I literally like threw up, fainted. Yeah, because you're cooking your body at 104 degrees
for an extended period of time.
And it is very plausible for one to pass out and drown.
No, and thank God, right.
I was in a house full of people and you threw me in the pool.
Yeah.
The cold pool.
I did, yeah.
And I instantly felt better.
Yeah.
But he was probably alone, I think.
Yeah, and when I think about that, it makes the story 10 times sadder.
Because if he battled addiction his entire life, overcame it, and then died in a freak accident. I mean, regardless, it's terrible, but it's very,
I know. It's very, very, very, very sad and hard and stinks. So. Yeah. So I'm actually really
excited to read his book because I think it's a really good combo. Of course, he's like, was at
one point in time, the most famous person in the country. Yeah. And he dated Julia Roberts. And I'm
sure he has all these like amazing friends stories and Hollywood stories.
Then there's also this like really dark side of it
where he said, you know,
he used to go, you know,
pretend to buy like a,
to be a prospective buyer
and go to open houses
and go to people's houses
and steal their prescription pills.
Like that's how bad his addiction was.
So I think it's probably a really good combo
in terms of like a book.
Yeah.
It's definitely, I would read it but
If you knew how to.
I can't read so.
Yeah that's so sad.
I can't read.
Are you ready for our fifth and final story? A little cheek crack hole news?
Ready Freddy.
So, Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker are making waves because she was
wishing Travis a happy birthday on Instagram and she shared
pictures from this photo shoot they had did. I believe it was some sort of
pregnancy shoot. And it's very NSFW. You know, he's holding her titties. That's not
really NSFW because like she's pregnant. It was really just meant to be like very
rockery, but also pregnant, you know? And there are a few pictures that I think
caught the attention of a lot of people. And for me it was this one. Let me show it to you. And I'll show it to the
YouTube as well. Oh. Yeah, so if you haven't seen it, it's Travis and Courtney.
They're hugging each other. So we see Courtney's back and we see Travis
hugging her from the front. And as he's hugging her we see him with his hands
basically in her ass. So this is a conversation we actually had last week
about you know butt touching.
And we came up with this little limerick called
cheek crack hole.
Because if you're gonna be grabbing someone's ass
in a photo, hand on the cheek is obviously the best.
Crack, because we saw a video of Leonardo DiCaprio's
girlfriend literally putting her fingers in his crack.
It's a little dirtier, but it's not as bad as whole. Now would you categorize this photo of Travis and Courtney
as cheek, crack, or whole?
The problem is I'm sure it was cheek. That said you cannot see his entire hand.
It's giving whole.
So I have nothing to do nothing to say but
whole it's giving whole yeah it has to be which according to you know the toast is the worst type
yeah it goes cheek crack hole yeah and uh i don't think that whole hole is reserved for a private
place i would agree pole is reserved for a private place Between you know Two consenting adults Yes Yes
So yes
That is a
That is an intense photograph
Now should we
And I wish them well
Should we recreate these photos
In your opinion
Sure
But it's my hand
Yeah your hand
Okay
So we'll be going cheek
We'll be going cheek
Yeah
We'll be going cheek
Yeah
Yeah
Cheek is nice
Yeah unless we can get like
Like Charmin sponsorship or like a.
Yeah, I would love that.
No, what's the, or like a, oh, dude wipes.
Call me.
Yeah, yeah, that's a good idea.
Right?
Cheek.
Crack.
Hole.
Yeah.
Cheek.
Crack.
Hole.
It kind of, it's like a song if you want it to be.
Yeah, it's pretty good.
Yeah.
Cheek, crack, hole.
It sounds like Jimmy Crack Corn.
Cheek, crack, hole. And I don't care. I love that. Cheek crack hole and I don't care.
Cheek crack hole and I don't care. Cheek crack hole and I don't. Cheek crack hole and I don't care. Say cheek crack hole five times fast. Cheek crack hole. Cheek crack hole. Cheek crack hole.

Are you ready for Dear Toasters?
Ready.
All right.
So if you guys ever want to write in, it's deartoasters at gmail.com.
Or you can head to thetoastpodcast.com.
It's all anonymous.
And we can help you.
Okay?
This one's funny.
Hi, Swirlies.
I love my girlies and the advice that you give others.
So when this was brought to my attention, I knew I needed to turn to the Turd and the Jacks for help.
Sad for her.
She didn't get Turdy and Jacks.
She got Turdy and BSA.
So let me just say this straight.
I cannot eat leftovers.
It's a long-term phobia that I just can't explain.
This year, I'm hosting Thanksgiving,
and my in-laws are driving six hours to visit.
I recently learned that my mother-in-law
has already made stuffing and apple pie
over two weeks before Thanksgiving.
Who knows what else she'll bring in tow?
A whole ass cooked turkey?
I've been really looking forward to both Thanksgiving staples and not to mention that I'm pregnant.
But now I simply can't and I simply shan't.
Is it rude to make or buy my own day of or do I just not eat it?
What would Jax and Claude do?
Girl, just buy an extra pie because you can never, Thanksgiving is one of those things, you can never have too much.
Oh, so look, my mother-in-law, my mother-in-law bought a pie.
Oh, but I also got one from Publix.
Like, it's so not a big deal.
True.
Like, Thanksgiving is buffet.
That's true.
You always have extra food.
And by the way, I don't like leftovers either.
But like, sometimes I will have them.
You do like leftovers.
I like chili leftovers.
Certain things.
You like all leftovers.
No, certain things.
I never take like food home from a restaurant.
No, you like leftovers.
If we ordered something in, you will eat it the next day.
Depends on what it is.
I'm very particular.
I'm very particular.
But I don't think this has anything to do with leftovers.
Somebody cooking something two weeks in advance, that's disgusting.
I thought about it.
It's actually not disgusting.
It's the same exact way that you can freeze anything.
And what she probably did, because it's a six-hour drive, she probably made the pie, right?
Froze it immediately.
And then took the pie.
And the pie will still be frozen by the time she gets there.
It's definitely not, like, it's not going to be a great pie.
I'm not going to lie.
The real problem here is that your mother-in-law is cooking you shit food.
If you're making it two weeks in advance it's just on it's just unnecessary what pie is worth
all that trouble when literally store-bought pie and not even like a fancy bakery public's pie like
so good you heat it up in the oven there's literally no reason you should ever make a pie
i stand by what i said no so you can make a pie that i totally disagree with especially as a
celebrity chef we need to make our own pies that said uh the amount of grief that you are going to get from this mother-in-law not only driving six hours but
making you a two-week pie and you're not gonna like the pie good freaking luck lady by the way
no how many people are coming to your thanksgiving like is she gonna be watching what you eat also
you're pregnant anybody who attacks a pregnant woman oh period i missed that part or for what
she eats straight to hell totally straight to hell and just like figure out what type of pie it is
and say that like
it's just revolting you
as a pregnant woman
like you can't do
apples anymore
right
that's like an easy excuse
I'm sorry
I was reading
the steer toasters
and it's really crazy
go
hey girlies
I need your help
oh just back to that girl
like eat whatever
the fuck you want
yeah
I need your help
I've been dating a guy
for six months
he's been a total p-jump
we are in love
and things have been
getting really serious.
But I snooped through his phone recently and I'm shook.
Fuck around and find out.
Early in our relationship, he bought me five sets of lingerie, which I thought was so sweet
and a very sexy gesture.
Well, after looking through the photos in his phone, I found out that a girl he dated
shortly before me was the one he bought those for.
Tons of pics of her in the exact same lingerie.
I'm assuming he didn't repurchase these for me and I've been wearing her stuff.
But either way, I got the ick.
Also, why are these photos still on his phone?
What do I do?
And then, not you like sharing vagina pads with this girl.
Like, that's so unsanitary.
I doubt he washed them.
By the way, it's impossible they're the same.
He didn't break up with a girl and say, give me my lingerie back.
Oh, that's true.
I'm confident that it's different.
He just is a creep for sure but not
the level of creep that maybe you think he is. These are this is new lingerie. It has to be.
By the way that's a very good point. He wouldn't ask for lingerie back. No that's disgusting.
Yeah but maybe he went over so well with the first girl. Yeah maybe it was just she really
liked it. She found it sexy. He thought that you would really like it. You'd find it sexy.
Why does he still have it on his phone?
Right, the fact that he copied the same gift isn't a crime.
Like, it's just men being unoriginal.
But where I think the problem lies within the photos still being on the phone.
Yeah, but also, how old are these photos?
Like, how recent is this?
We're, again, missing information.
How old is this? How did you these photos? Like how recent is this? We're again missing information. How old is this?
How did you find them?
Like to be honest if you're snooping back seven years and you find something that's on you.
Yeah.
Like I'm sorry.
That's why you shouldn't snoop.
Like you're never going to find something that's going to make you happy.
You shouldn't snoop.
You shouldn't snoop.
Agreed.
But you did.
So now what do we do with this information?
That's the lesson here for next time.
But to address this current situation. You shouldn't snoop. Agreed. But you did. So now what do we do with this information? That's the lesson here for next time. Now.
But to address this current situation.
Now you certainly confront and you make sure that, yes, you're not sharing vagina to vagina lingerie.
Just to make sure that you're not getting some disease from this ex.
You have to admit that you snooped.
Yeah.
Sorry I snooped.
That said, what I found trumps the punishment for snooping.
Yeah.
And you need to explain yourself.
Yeah, now I've made myself sick, so you don't even have to punish me because I know I was wrong.
But do confirm that these aren't the same exact panties because that's literally one of the most disgusting things I've ever heard in my life.
And then also just be like, oh, and why do you still have these photos?
Yeah.
You've got yourself into this situation, and I'm afraid you're going to have to get yourself out because you really can't ignore this.
Yeah, no, it's definitely strange.
Yeah.
It's definitely strange yeah it's definitely strange but I feel like he could explain this doesn't sound like a crazy red flag to me I think he could explain his way out of this
where it would make sense and he's not a bad guy yeah it's just like I don't know maybe I'm just
like so not the lingerie buying type no you've never bought me lingerie you've never bought me
underwear actually not true you have yeah you want me to buy you undies? No. Undies are very
personal. That's what I'm saying. How do you buy somebody like it's just strange. Because lingerie
is not like underwear you wear to work. Oh you're saying that if I bought you lingerie that's not
like buying undies. No no it's different. Like if that's like what you wear for like sexy time.
Yeah but like that's why I bought you your original skeleton pajamas from Target. And that's why I love you. Isn't that our version of lingerie?
Yes.
Yeah, see?
And that way, like, by the way, I would never, ever, ever, hypothetically speaking,
if I had dated somebody else, I would never buy the same pair of pajamas for the two.
It's personal.
Thank you.
By the way, this guy, serial killer.
Please stop talking about you dating other people.
I know, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
That's Pittsville, USA.
I know, I'm sorry. All right,, USA. I know, I'm sorry.
All right, are you ready for our third and final to your toasters?
Yes, yes, yes.
Hey, gorgeous girlies.
I'm a longtime toaster, OG Brother.
I live in New York City with my fiance.
He is a total pre-jom.
My parents still live in the childhood home in Connecticut that I grew up in.
And while having lunch with them this past weekend, they told me that they are leaving
me the house and they plan to move in the next five years.
The house is totally paid off, everything like that. Obviously, this made me so excited. The idea of living in my
childhood home is so cozy to me, but also a house in this economy? No brainer. But my fiance says
he would feel weird about living in the house because it won't feel like ours. He thinks we
should buy our own house when the moment comes. Am I crazy to be annoyed at this and think,
what are you, nuts?
Please, help a girl convince him it's an amazing
thing and get excited.
Your fiance,
unless he's a Rockefeller,
is a fucking moron.
Yeah.
Do you know how many
young couples
starting out in their life
would literally kill
to get a house
paid off in Connecticut?
And not starting out
in their life.
Yeah, at any age.
I'll take the house.
No, at any age.
Let me take the house. What a gift your parents have given you. the house. No, at any age. Let me take the house.
What a gift your parents have given you.
My God.
No, it's actually...
Your fiance's an idiot.
Yeah, he's definitely an idiot.
Huge red flag.
Yeah.
And...
Unless he comes from major money, and money isn't an option here.
No, it doesn't sound that way.
No.
And what I can say as a stubborn man who has moved begrudgingly before you'll fall in love with the house because
when did you move begrudgingly not begrudgingly but like there have been like our our last house
i didn't love as much as you it's true and then when we got there and we got into it and we made
it ours i loved it this current apartment we both felt was unbelievable from the second we got i
understand what you're saying but that's rare rare. Yeah. Right? It's rare.
Take the house.
The guy's going to end up loving it.
He's a moron.
He's going to make it his own.
And if you don't love it in five years, you can always sell the house.
No, of course.
But first of all, you should not sell a house that's completely paid off.
Oh, I'm with you.
Then you have to go move to another house.
And by the way, this is the house that your parents lived in their whole lives.
So it's not a starter house.
No.
It's probably a big house yeah
they raised all their kids there
yeah
and think of all the money
you would put down
on a down payment
on real estate taxes
fees
alright
so it's not your own
you'll make it your own
put some renovations in
agree
spend the money
agreed
are you okay
no he's not okay
or honestly
maybe he just needs to hear
an outside perspective
maybe play this episode for him
and let me speak directly to him
hey fiance love love you.
You're a moron.
Take this house.
What a gift you've been given.
Like, do you know how many people, like, buying a house, the mortgage every month,
it weighs on them so heavily it affects their daily lives.
You've been given a gift.
Yeah.
Idiot.
And probably conservatively knowing that it's in Connecticut.
Oh, yeah.
It can't be less than a few million dollar gift. Yeah. Idiot. And probably conservatively knowing that it's in Connecticut. Oh yeah. It can't be less
than a few million
dollar gift.
I would say the
average home in
Connecticut a million
dollars.
Probably two million
Depends on the
neighborhood.
Probably two million
dollars.
Regardless.
And girl.
If somebody came and
gave you 700 grand.
Right.
No and let me speak
directly to the girl.
You're going to say
no?
Let me speak directly
to the girl who
wrote in.
Do not let your
fiance sway this decision.
This is a non-swayable decision.
Like, my God.
Honestly, take the house over the man, always.
It's a non-swayable decision.
