Good morning, Millennials!
Welcome back to The Toast. Happy Wednesday!
It is our favorite day here at The Toast.
It is hump day, middle of the week shenanigans.
And speaking of girls who I believe got humped,
it is my pregnant sister and co-host, yeah that's right, pregnant, Jax.
Hey Jax, what's going on?
Hey turdy loohoo uh not much just yeah being pregnant
we announced turdy and I announced our news yes we're very excited about this next chapter we are
um now I posted on my Instagram yesterday that I'm pregnant we dropped a Patreon episode with all the deets how I'm feeling the gender the gender what's been going on how turdy's feeling what this means for
turdy how turdy's kind of being pushed out how turdy's being pushed out but also how this is
great for turdy as well yeah no it's so true there's so so many benefits for Angela turd. And it's really all you can ask from a sister from a turd.
So now that you like,
um,
are out and about,
you said something to me,
like,
I don't even think on the podcast,
just like in life about how being pregnant in the first trimester is so hard
because you feel the worst,
but you also can't tell anyone.
Yeah.
So complain,
girly.
How you feeling?
It's like the last few months,
these days I am feeling better, but the last few months. These days I am feeling better.
But the last few months, like I would want to say like I'm tired or I don't feel well
or something.
And or what did I do yesterday?
Fucking nothing because I was so fatigued and couldn't move.
That's when you want to like share and kind of complain.
But you can't.
And then now I am feeling a little better.
And I'm like, what's everyone chatting about? Yeah, right. What's everyone chatting about yeah right what's going on guys what's the hot what's the 4-1-1 what's everybody
talking about yeah so um I am I'm feeling better in the second trimester the first especially the
first few weeks were rough like just so so so tired like depleted beyond um I talk about in the patreon like you know what I did mostly eating
healthier unfortunately helped a lot I know so lame not lame disappointing I know because you
think you're pregnant like let's gorge yeah right but no then you feel like absolute garbage so
just you know smaller meals more frequently,
which is what they say, you know?
I just never actually ingested that information.
It's so annoying when they are right.
No, and it's like, sure, I could eat small meals frequently, but why not just one big one
and not have to think about it for a few hours?
That's pretty much the philosophy I've subscribed to
for most of my life.
But I'll be thinking about something else if I do that,
which is how awful I feel.
So small meals it is.
So you might feel awful,
but the toast always,
always makes you feel better.
Is that like a proven pregnancy,
like kind of doctor approved thing that you have going on?
Yeah,
it's definitely,
it's nice to have distractions.
The toast.
Oh, so that's all we are to you just a side piece a distraction that's all you are to me turdy I'm kidding you're my main
you're my main squeeze speaking of turdy today we have dear toasters and two things one we have
an update that will literally bring a tear to your eye it's so beautiful it's so beautiful it
sounds like a lie okay that's how beautiful it is that's how fantastical we're gonna need a fact check on that
and then two it's so funny how turdy has taken on such a life of its own when people have been
writing in recently people always love to you know talk about their friends or husbands and
they obviously won't say their real name so they'll always come up with a fake name like
theo bruno harry rolled um Everyone is naming their significant others Turdy.
Their significant others, wow.
Yeah.
Turdy's caught on like wildfire.
That's the impact Turdy has had.
It's impactful.
It is.
I mean, so is being a mother,
which you can hear all about
Jackie's journey to motherhood, number two,
on the Patreon, patreon.com slash toast. It is a video and audio podcast. You can watch or you can listen. And we's journey to motherhood. Number two on the patron patron.com slash toast.
It is a video and audio podcast.
You can watch or you can listen.
And we're talking about it all.
We're mentioning it all.
You know,
Jackie having sex,
BBT,
the gender motherhood,
being pregnant with a one-year-old,
all of that.
BBT different from the BBC,
but is it BBC?
BBC greater than BBT?
Definitely.
I don't know.
BBT can create life.
So can BBC.
So can BBC.
Depends which BBC definition you're thinking of,
but if you're thinking of the one I'm thinking of,
it can definitely create life.
Yeah.
So that's just something we need to think about today, to ponder.
Just, yeah.
That's what we're always doing here at The Toast, giving you thought-provoking things. Thought starters.
Like, who's everyone's celebrity doppelganger?
You're such a wench.
I hate you.
I just, like, can't get over that that was your question at the table.
Well, get over it.
Because it was.
Okay, fine. I won't continue on. Because. Okay fine I won't continue on. Because it was.
I won't continue on. Good. As to why it makes no sense. So what was I gonna say? Oh just like a quick update for me last night. I'm still home alone and I almost feel like I'm pregnant because
I remember you would not me literally making everything about me literally everything is about turny but it's fine because I'm kind of like I'm fatigued I'm
all talked out I like I if I want to share something I will fight you for the microphone
okay but go ahead I remember when you were pregnant the first time you were saying how
you literally just like can't order in food anymore like you had to cook for a multitude
of reasons but honestly I've been really feeling that way like I can't I't order in food anymore. Like you had to cook for a multitude of reasons. But honestly, I've been really feeling that way. Like I can't, I always order in first of all,
it's so financially irresponsible and two, it's never even good. No, it's slop. And you end up
paying literally double with like the fee and everything. So I've like had a lot of groceries.
I've been trying to like make meals. And last night I was like, you know what? I'm going to
make myself some food. And the way I have literally never never not once in my life successfully made something I have made
things that ended up fine and edible but it wasn't correct like turny is low-key a horrible chef like
every time I go on one of those shows world's worst cooks every time you set out to make something
it comes out totally wrong like I remember when you made panela vodka and like you got drunk.
We were all getting wasted.
You got wasted on the pasta.
Remember the one Thanksgiving where I was like,
okay, I will make the mashed potatoes
and it was actual concrete.
Yeah.
I have never successfully made anything.
And even when I've made something that's edible,
it's still not correct.
It's just like decent.
Yes.
So last night.
I was so excited. I was like playing music night I was so excited I was like playing music
I was chopping I was gonna make taco meat and rice like I just I love taco meat I don't even
need like the whole taco station like I just need meat and so I'm I'm cooking I got garlic olive oil
and onions on the pan I'm browning my meat and the one thing in my house that I always have like I
don't really I'm an ingredients house like I don't have a lot of stuff. Oh my, the truckers are out here. Truckers for tacos. I always have those pockets,
packets of old El Paso seasoning. Like I love old El Paso. I am their number one customer.
I think what they're doing is great. And I didn't even check before I started. I'm like,
I know I have it. Cue to the time to add the fucking seasoning. And I don't have any.
I'm like, shit shit and Ben has told me
that like old El Paso he's like it's not authentic like you can make it real I'm like all right so
we always have because we also make a lot of chili we always have the makings of taco seasonings like
the seasonings that go into the packet yes so I just googled it delish.com crapola.com
I followed the thing to a tea to a tea to a tea I had my little uh you know teaspoon
thing okay I made it in a bowl I'm mixing it I'm like you know it smells a little funky in the bowl
but I'm like you know it just it needs to get in there before it really starts to smell like the
old El Paso oh my god not only did it smell fucking horrible once I like added everything
into the pan but it also had this like chunky consistency. Like it was like not melding with the meat.
It was like dry.
Do you know that you need to add water?
I did.
Okay.
I just learned that.
I just learned that last week.
Because I never made tacos before.
I didn't know that.
But it was like simple math.
I'm like, this looks dry.
Let me add water.
You know?
Oh, look at you, turdy.
Not me.
I'm like, if they didn't tell me to do it, I can't do it.
So I get everything in there.
I let it simmer. My house smells like a fucking crematorium it smelled so disgusting I couldn't
and then I felt pregnant too because I was like I'm telling you I'm having sympathy I'm like I'm
not even gonna try this it's so smelly and disgusting like I'll make myself sick you're
having Munchausen's pregnancy 100% so I literally threw away the whole thing. Such a fucking waste of
meat, of time. My back was killing me. I'm literally pregnant after standing in the kitchen.
It took me 90 minutes to do this whole thing. Like my back was hurting. I was wearing a bra.
That was a huge mistake. I was so hungry and I just ended up eating egg noodles.
So did it smell bad for Turdy or like for everyone would have thought it smelled bad?
It just wasn't like, was it you?
Because you're very particular.
Everyone.
And I know what tacos smell like.
And that wasn't tacos.
Where do you think you went wrong?
I couldn't tell you if I tried.
Honestly, fuckdelish.com.
That's where I went wrong.
Let me see what their taco seasoning recipe was.
It sounded right.
Like cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, chili powder, paprika, salt, pepper.
I had everything except for maybe the paprika.
And they said like that was like if you like it spicy.
And I don't even like it spicy.
And always paprika is always like the teeniest bit just for color.
Right.
Okay.
I did it right.
Homemade taco seasoning.
Looks good in the bowl.
It always looks good in there.
Fraudulent pictures.
Chili powder, cumin.
Done.
Done.
I know you don't love
cumin but what like it's not a lot one tablespoon oh actually yeah it actually kind of like
overpowered for sure the cumin yeah smoke pack brica i didn't have okay that's fine garlic powder
onion powder good fresh ground pepper and dried oregano what's bad maybe it was the cumin you didn't like it's very potent can can seasonings
go bad because like my seasoning cabinet like that's also so dirty yeah oh no i just go bad
every seasoning that's in my house was purchased is the first one that's ever been in my house like
i don't replenish i never finish seasoning does anyone it only has 3.9 stars on the reviews out of five so maybe you
like well just wait till I get in there and I give it zero stars do you use too much or too little
I did the fucking measuring yeah the people in the comments aren't like thrilled with the recipe
but it sounds like non-nefarious but the the thing about Turdy, and it's like just something sweet about Turdy,
is that she can't cook.
I know.
Try as she may.
You obviously, you know what you're doing.
You chopped onions and you were sizzling in the kitchen,
but you always, always fuck it up.
Every single time.
You just don't have that je ne sais quoi.
I don't have the green thumb for cooking. No, just like don't have that je ne sais quoi I don't have the you know the
green thumb for cooking no you really don't and maybe it's because you like can't follow directions
you don't like to follow like you're a rule breaker not a rule follower no and I'm really
impatient yeah yeah especially about food yeah and you you'll cut any corner that you see 100%
like when I make pasta like I refuse to wait for the water to boil like oh it's a little hot throw it in that's so funny I'm like if it's not rip roiling we're not going
in no I don't give a rip it's going in you don't give a rip I'm waiting for it to rip I can't like
I really can't and that's why I just order in and that's why I had like a shit meal last night and
I was just like feeling shit and that's why you have Ben also i know it's like i actually really miss ben like
mostly because i'm hungry but you don't even like what he makes no i don't i like what he makes for
me when he makes his own like fucking disgusting ass like dill infused tuna like i could vomit
it's so crazy it was really fucking annoying like oh what a difficult night for me i'm so sorry you
had to go through that turdy uh olivia sent over dinner for us I know and then I I had facetimed Olivia when I couldn't find the
old El Paso seasoning and that bitch didn't pick up so I really do blame what happened next on her
because she didn't pick up and then once it was destroyed she called me back and she was like in
the kitchen with the kids cooking like this delicious meal and like I actually in that
moment I never felt so low I was like I should be there I don't have a meal I don't have any me I don't have anyone in my house to enjoy this meal with
like I felt lonely I felt sad I felt hungry it was really hard and like everyone her fit her
her kitchen was popping with life and love and mine was just filled with dread you were a low
down turd I couldn't honestly I had to hang up. I understand. And call me.
Who was also cooking.
No, it was disgusting.
I'm sorry, turdy, that you went through that.
We're all here for you.
It's okay. Drop your favorite taco, homemade taco seasoning recipe in the comments because I actually,
I have a jar of taco seasoning.
I think I might have old alpasto, but I never used it.
But I just got like, you know, one of the seasoning jars, whatever.
And I've made it twice now. And I can tell can tell like it's not my favorite version of taco seasoning so like I would love to try someone else's let me know somebody when I
spoke a little bit about what I did last night on my Instagram and people were sending their tips
and somebody sent the most absolutely motherfucking unhinged tip I've ever seen in my life ready sure
they were like once the meat is brown like don't add taco seasoning put it in a big bowl with an entire jar of salsa and you have taco meat that's not what turd he's
gonna like obviously that person doesn't know turd yeah right right I just want to shout out
old El Paso I love them I don't know if it's considered like white people taco I hope it's
like a really authentic I hope it's like a Mexican owned and operated brand because like I love to support yeah I think their their shells their
tortillas their seasoning I think everything they make is amazing it seems so authentic to me
and I don't even want to look into the company background because if it's not authentic Mexican
like I'll feel bad no I feel like it probably is I know I feel like it's owned by Goya. That's just like some feeling I have. Maybe they were bought by Goya.
Old El Paso and the Paso Company.
And Goya is Mexican owned.
So whenever I make chili, I go Goya.
What?
Okay.
Is chili Mexican?
What company owns El Paso?
Okay.
General Mills owns it now, but hopefully they bought it from the people who started it.
Yeah.
General Mills.
Oh, that's so not authentic uh what about like about us yeah like who started old el paso let me ask that next
who started old el paso maybe i mean with a name like that, they've got to be authentic. The Mountain Pass Canning Company launched the old El Paso brand.
Shit.
Okay.
Mountain Pass Canning Company.
Let's check them out.
It sounds like it was started by a major corporation to trick Americans into thinking they're having authentic Mexican culinary experiences.
In 1917, the Mountain Pass Canning Company in New Mexico was bought from a
local in El Paso, Texas. So who started the Mountain Pass? Who's the local in old El Paso?
Yeah, Mountain Pass Canning Company. This is giving me Marjorie Post, if you know, you know.
Honestly, 1900s. I feel like it's authentic.
But the fact that they're making it so difficult for you to find out.
Yep.
And also now I'm back to the old El Paso site where it said,
it all started in 1917 when the Mountain Pass Canning Company
was established by A.C. Powell in New Mexico.
A.C., American camper.
So you're saying American.
Powell was a farmer and grew his successful enterprise
from an original seven-acre farm
with as much help as he could muster
from his family and neighbors.
That's a sweet story of community.
Is he Mexican?
Powell?
He's not a Mexican!
The company was one of the first to can tomatoes,
but it also produced pinto beans, corn, chile, and alfalfa,
all grown on the expanding farm.
Then in 1938, the Mountain Pass Canning Company
launched the Old El Paso brand,
which was soon known for its fiery taco sauce.
From our humble beginning, making canned beans and taco sauce,
we've always been there to offer you the best Mexican recipes
that the whole family will love.
So it sounds like maybe they are whitewashing taco and Mexican culinary cuisine.
Yes.
It's still so good.
But you know what?
It still tastes the same.
No.
So you know what?
Let me tell you.
I will continue to use their products but I won't
feel good doing it and that's the price I pay yeah where or you could you know drop your favorite
uh Mexican owned Mexican food brand drop it yeah but I like the little packets like that's what
makes it easy like I'm so simple-minded in the kitchen the package. I can't be getting complicated. The packets are nice.
I need a packet.
Well, I'm sure after this, they'll send you a lifetime supply.
This will never happen to you again, Turdy.
And it shouldn't.
Yeah.
You know, all this taco talk has actually made me quite thirsty.
So why don't you tell everyone a little story and I'm going to go get a sparkling water.
Oh, OK.
I'll tell you a story about the.
Oh, she's taking her headphones off.
I was going to like butter her up. Um, you know what? I have a great story because yesterday I
was editing our episode of the redheads, which drops tomorrow. Oh, I've got to finish episode
editing it. And the way I tell you, it was such an enjoyable podcast. I picked my head up and I
was 40 minutes into the episode. I literally swear. I had just started editing it up and I was 40 minutes into the episode I literally swear I had just started
editing it and I was like damn they don't make podcasts like this like more people need to know
about the redheads and so tomorrow it drops and you don't want to miss it because it's honestly
premium stuff and you don't have to have read the book because we always summarize it in the
beginning of the episode I was just saying I was editing the redheads episode yesterday I heard
the whole thing I heard the whole thing oh I heard the whole thing. Oh, I was. Oh, because if you were listening the whole time, I was going to tell them about the best day of my
life. July 10th, 1994. That's so sweet. I just wanted to clarify for everyone listening as a
podcast. I got a Diet Coke, not a sparkling water. Oh, thank you for holding yourself accountable.
It's so important to be authentic when you have a brand like this. Yes. And people are literally
watching you on the camera. Yeah, I know. someone was gonna call me out so I just got to call myself out first that was a nice sip of
water should we dive in I'm so excited to read the seer toasters to you like oh okay great hardly

Thank you, Claudia.
Yeah, well, who's Claudia?
I don't know.
I just feel like my turd count is already at like 50 for the episode.
So I just wanted to switch it up.
Oh my God, if this was like Watch What Happens Live,
like our drinking game of the night would every day be turdy.
Yeah, and you would be drunk every night.
Aren't we all?
No, we're not no no um our first story that's what it is it is a story and is some music news ed sheeran announces
his new honest album not called honest the album just is an album in which there is honesty and
reveals that his wife cherry seabororn had a tumor during pregnancy.
Oh my God.
So he is back with the latest installments of his mathematical albums.
This one is called minus sign.
Subtract.
Subtract.
And it's called subtract.
I didn't,
now that I realized it,
I know the divided one,
the division.
What was that one called?
Multiply.
I never realized that.
I thought he had X divided.
No, they're all meth and I believe
this is the fourth one yeah and then he's going on tour that's like x divided you know minus plus
and it's called the mathematics tour it honestly should be called the pemdas tour it's a lot and
it's funny this article says with you know minus symbol pronounce subtract that's the name of the album
he'll cover a difficult period that spurred him to musically reflect on his deepest darkest thoughts
he announced Wednesday in a press release he put out a really long statement very honest um saying
I had been working on subtract for a decade trying to sculpt the perfect acoustic album
writing and recording hundreds of songs with a clear vision of what I thought it should be
then at the start of 2022 a series of events changed my life, my mental health,
and ultimately the way I viewed music and art. Writing songs is my therapy. It helps me make
sense of my feelings. I wrote without thought of what the songs would be. I just wrote whatever
tumbled out. And in just over a week, I replaced a decade's worth of work with my deepest, darkest
thoughts. Within the space of a month, my pregnant wife got told she had a tumor with no
route to treatment until after the birth um they did welcome a second daughter in May of last year
but he said my best friend Jamal a brother to me died suddenly and I found myself standing in court
defending my integrity and career as a songwriter.
I was spiraling through fear, depression, and anxiety.
That's referencing when he was sued for Shape of You.
It sounds like something else.
He said, I felt like I was drowning, head below the surface,
looking up and not being able to break through for air.
He added that this inspired him to put out an album that accurately represented what he was experiencing.
Quote, it's opening the trap door into my soul. For the the first time I'm not trying to craft an album people will like I'm merely
putting something out that's honest and true to where I am in my adult life this is last February's
diary entry and my way of making sense of it this is subtract so I really like this explanation and
it also makes me really excited for the album because
I feel like his Divide album, which had Castle on the Hill, Galway Girl, Supermarket Flowers,
like was so good, like so honest and like so it had bops, it had anthems, it had acoustic,
like it was really one of the best albums ever.
And then I really felt like Ed Sheeran like went to this like weird like pop star place
where he was just like making crap over the last couple of years. Like Bad Habits, that new
song. I hate that song. And it's just not who we've come to know as Ed Sheeran. You know, he's
really like this stripped back guitar guy. And I really feel like this album is going to be really
good. Yeah, I've never immersed myself in Ed Sheeran. You know, I'm kind of like forced to listen to his music because he's always on the radio I find the Ed Sheeran songs that I
do like aren't even the ones that of course get the most radio play like Castle on the Hill came
out at the exact same time as that other crappy song Shape of You Shape of You and like I think
Shape of You is a horrible song and it was like Grammy like it couldn't it couldn't have been a
bigger song make it make sense. But Castle on the Hill.
After reading this explanation, I'm so excited for this album.
I feel like it's going to be a complete work.
It's not just about like singles and bops and radio plays.
Like it's a,
it's telling a story.
And I feel like it's,
I mean,
he,
every album he puts out is great,
but I feel like this will hit different.
It,
he intends for it to
hit different it's I'm sure there will still be hits from it because he's a hit maker yeah but
I'm really excited to hear what he has to say me too I completely agree I feel like his explanation
of it is making me really excited about it and it feels like it's going to be like what he's known
for which are like it's not these like pop anthem like you know dance in the club songs it's like these really honest acoustic songs yes like even when you think about started
when you get right when you think about the song that really launched him is the a-team it's like
this really stripped down song and like that's what we've come to expect from him but then in
recent years he like took this weird turn yeah I think he got maybe caught up in the industry he
probably got a million opportunities to like do big things but now he's back to his roots and I think he took off a lot of time and
I did feel like we missed him and we would be like throughout the years like where's Ed Sheeran
what's Ed Sheeran doing and so this feels really genuine not just like I'm taking a break from
social media yeah months I'm back here's a song about what what I learned were like yeah um I it
also got me thinking because I've always wondered you you know, he will run out of signs.
You know, he has plus.
He has X.
He has divide.
He has equal.
Now he has subtract.
So he's kind of gone through all of the elementary mathematical signs.
But I thought of one last night that I feel like he could use.
What?
Oh. Like the slash, like a factor, you know, three-fourths,
and it could be called factor.
Okay, interesting.
These five, I didn't realize he has equal too.
Like, yeah, that makes sense as well because it's usually the four.
Of course, plus, minus, divide, add.
Multiply.
Multiply.
So then he added equal, which is smart.
I feel like it's time to do something different after this.
You stink?
Yeah, without it getting silly, honestly.
And I'm so embarrassed to say I didn't even notice he was doing this.
I noticed it like a few years ago, but I didn't immediately notice it either. And I was always like, what the fuck is this album called?
X?
Yeah.
I literally never thought about it.
Yeah.
It's like a quirky thing about Ed.
It's cute.
I feel like other artists do that too.
This is actually a really well done version of it.
I don't know what's next.
Totally random.
You know what's like a pet peeve of mine?
Because I feel like Miley Cyrus just announced her track list.
And all the songs are in all caps.
And then some people do it like all lowercase.
Yeah, Ari.
Taylor's been doing that.
It really fucking bothers me.
Yeah.
I like a capitalization.
I also don't like all caps though.
Me neither.
Because I'm not yelling. No. I'm not that passionate about anything. It's a title. So you just't like all caps though. Me neither. Because I'm not yelling.
No.
I'm not that passionate about anything.
It's a title.
So you just do like the first letter of the word.
Like I hate when people try to get creative with like caps and stuff.
Like just stick to the, you know, English language.
Yeah.
The all lowercase.
I associate it with Ariana now.
So it doesn't bother me when she does it.
But it just seems like unnecessary.
It really bothers me.
Yeah. I feel like people used to do that like on their phones and computers.
Like you can turn off auto-capitalization
so their texts always start with a lowercase.
It's just so informal.
Yeah, no, I think like people used to do that
back in the day because like they were so chill,
you know, like not like other girls.
Like I'm so relaxed.
Like this text is just like answer it or whatever.
Like I don't care.
You know who weirdly has that?
Not for their text.
She did it so long ago that all the contacts in her phone start with a lowercase who Olivia Asher I see this decisions you make when you're young can really haunt you into your
adulthood that was like her aesthetic to talk to her about it maybe we'll see maybe we'll find out
that there's a reason behind that like if she ever sends you someone's contact you'll notice it's lowercase oh that's interesting text her now and be like can you send me um
yeah someone's number like someone who she like knows from like college or something
can you send me I'm gonna say Marnie's number I was just thinking Marnie good okay
it's so that's so funny the iCloud is crazy it literally follows you not to put her on blast but
I wonder if she still does it when I see her I'll ask her yeah and when I respond
when she responds I'll let you know um okay well excited for this album comes out May 5th
May the 5th so the day before snitch's birthday. So we'll all listen that day.
And then the next day we'll celebrate Snitch's birthday.
And the coronation.
And Taylor Swift in Nashville.
I think it's so crazy how you said May 5th.
The day before Snitch's birthday.
Like not only is it the anniversary of our deceased father's birthday.
But it's also the one year anniversary of me playing Madison Square Garden.
So thanks.
And it's Cinco de Mayo.
So you can have all the Old El Paso tacos you want. Should I have like an Old El Paso themed Cinco de Mayo. So you can have all the old El Paso tacos you want.
Should I have like an old El Paso themed Cinco de Mayo party?
Old El Paso should throw,
you guys should do like a collab brand event
where they throw you like a Cinco de Mayo party
for you and your influencer friends
to like eat tacos and take pics.
And like drink tequila.
Yeah.
Love.
Free marketing idea.
I just feel like, and I don't know how or why but like me doing that
would be like extremely offensive to Mexican culture and I actually I can understand why
like I'm not Mexican neither is old El Paso but like we're out here like LARPing as Mexicans
no I don't think you have to like LARP as a Mexican in order to enjoy the festivities okay
that would be like Lauren Elizabeth love love her, she's not Jewish,
and Manischewitz throwing a Hanukkah party.
Yeah.
It's weird.
Yeah.
It's a little different,
but I understand.
Yeah.
So are we like,
are you not meant to celebrate
Cinco de Mayo at all?
No, I think you are.
Because Lauren Elizabeth
is not meant to celebrate Hanukkah.
Right. I think you can't. You know is not meant to celebrate Hanukkah. Right.
I think you can't.
You know what?
I don't know.
I'll have to ask someone who's Mexican because I can't speak for them.
Like, are we encouraged to celebrate everyone?
I think you are.
But I think there's a respectful way of doing it.
Of course.
Of course.
No, I understand.
I could see how.
Like wearing sombreros and fake mustaches.
Like that's not appropriate.
That's not the way to do it.
But I could also see if, you know, you became the face of like old El Paso.
That would be problematic.
Single denial party, that wouldn't play well.
No, it would be problematic for sure.
Yeah.
No, you're right about that.
Yeah.
So maybe I take the idea back.
Oh, wait, Olivia sent me.
Oh, three videos of Michaela.
How blessed am I?
Did she see your original text I don't know like
emphasize it I am send the exclamations I am okay well I'll have to watch those videos
Michaela later oh she's fun she's sleeping in the car she's wearing a tutu oh my god I'm obsessed
oh are you ready for our next story yeah Travis Scott is accused of punching a man in the face
and causing $12,000 worth of equipment damage.
Wait, hold on.
Like you just said Travis Scott.
And like my mind took 45 minutes to place who that is.
Because one, we haven't spoken about him in so long.
And the Travis we have been talking about is Kelsey.
So I was like, wait, who the fuck is Travis Scott?
No, Travis, like so many people are named Travis.
Travis Barker.
Yeah.
Travis Kelsey, Travis Scott.
But you don't even like know their name Travis until you really think about it.
Yeah.
And then you think about the name Travis too long.
And it sounds like garage.
Like you can't say it too many times because it stops sounding like a word.
Travis.
Travis. Travis.
I wonder what the name Travis means and what's its origin.
Travis name.
Travis comes from the Greek word,
which means man.
It's derived from the old French word,
old French word,
traverser,
meaning to cross.
Ah, we're traversing.
We're traversing through Travises.
Interesting.
But this Travis, of the Scott variety,
allegedly punched a man in the face and caused $12,000 worth of damage to equipment,
police sources tell Page Six.
They're told cops responded to an assault call early Wednesday at Nebula in Midtown
where the Sicko Mode rapper allegedly got into a verbal turned physical altercation with a sound engineer.
The alleged victim did not complain of pain or have any visible injuries at the time of the report.
Travis also allegedly damaged a video screen and speaker before departing the nightclub in an unknown vehicle.
Page Six has learned that only a complaint was made and that Scott has not been arrested
in connection to the alleged incident
Travis Scott is on a one-way trip to nowhere I don't know what the fuck he's doing every time
I hear about him it's like something worse well not worse but it's just more bad shit
and honestly he needs to reevaluate his life honestly yeah and i'm sure like he's also
spiraling now that kylie is done with him right now they're very on and off but you know when you
don't have a woman to like tether you you can get you can you're untethered you spin out you're
rootless and there's nothing worse than being untethered. A hundred percent. And it causes you to just like act erratically like this.
Yeah.
So.
Not good.
Not good.
Do better, actually.
In an actual way.
I'm not saying it in an ironic way.
I'm saying like do better.
Like you have a family, like you're a role model to people.
Like do better.
Yeah.
Do better things.
Make better choices. Maybe surround yourself model to people. Like, do better. Yeah, do better things. Make better choices.
Maybe surround yourself with better people.
Maybe, like, who you're surrounding yourself with
is not influencing you to make good choices.
Do better.
Are you ready for our next story?
Some royal drama.
Yeah.
King Charles has evicted Harry and Meghan from Frogmore Cottage,
and he did it 24 after 24 hours after
Spare was published and guess who's moving in I don't know Prince Andrew yikes I know but it's a
major downgrade for Prince Andrew he was living on 98 acres uh with a 30 room estate paying like
250 pounds a month in government subsidized housing and now he's
moving to Frogmore Cottage which we saw bits and pieces of in the documentary it's not you know a
palace it's not what you would imagine royals living in yeah so I think he was under pressure
to like put Prince Andrew in smaller accommodations and also he's done like Harry and him are done so
yeah and but Harry and Meghan were never going to stay there anyway.
Like I don't think this affects them.
They stayed there for the coronation.
The coronation?
The Jubilee.
Oh did they?
Yeah because in the documentary they had like pictures from Jubilee weekend.
Wait they were at the Jubilee?
They went and they left early.
Okay.
Yeah.
Okay.
All right.
So overall this is fairly inconsequential because like they don't live in
fucking uk yeah no but like if they were ever going back if if who knows if they'll even be
at the coronation this makes me think no but remember we just reported that charles wants
his legacy to be reuniting his family right right but if they don't if they have to stay you know
down the street at a hotel i don't think there's much reunification.
And to be used served by Prince Andrew is a slap in the face.
The way they spoke about Frogmore in the documentary,
they obviously thought of it as a dump.
So they should be happy that they're staying in a hotel now
because they'll stay at the Four Seasons.
Yes.
No, they were in a place before Frogmore that was dumpy,
the one that Oprah went to and was like,
people wouldn't believe that you live like this.
And then they got upgraded to Frogmore when they got engaged or married
and that's where she was pregnant and it was much homier though still not a palace on a hill it is
like a cottage a cottage it is Frogmore cottage so King Charles Cavalier Spaniel III Bryson
Strassen began the process of evicting Harry and Meghan from Frogmore Cottage.
Accidentally clicked a different link.
Just 24 hours after his son released Spare, it was claimed today.
His Majesty initially gave his son and daughter-in-law weeks to pack up their grace and favor British home in the grounds of Windsor Castle after his son released his memoirs.
But now they have at least until after the coronation in May, a friend of the couple is claimed.
A source told Page Six that King Charles began the eviction process on January 11th the day after Spare had
its global release the Sussexes have reportedly planning reportedly started planning how to move
their belongings to California including an ornate ottoman bench and a chaise lounge from the home
they lived in until Megxit and stayed at following the queen's death last September. Oh, and I guess when they went back for the funeral.
You know what?
Queenie was everything,
but she definitely had a blind spot for her children.
And I think a lot of people were like disappointed
there wasn't more of like a brouhaha for Prince Andrew,
you know, to answer for his crimes.
Obviously there was no legal repercussions,
but even like he got stripped of his uniform,
whatever titles, but like he still stripped of his uniform whatever titles but
like he still lived like you said 200 acres prince vibes um 98 acres 30 mansion called
Windsor Royal Lodge so you know what I kind of love this power move for Charles like he obviously
doesn't have the same affection and blind spot for his brother that his mother did so you know
what here for it yeah two birds one stone for him and eugenie both the
girls are married right so they're both living out of the house it's not affecting them because
they're innocent in this yeah bitch go live in the cottage i'm sure they're charles's nieces and
and they seem lovely i'm sure they could stay wherever they want when they come back everyone
goes to kensington that seems to be a hub of royal activity.
I would want to stay in Buckingham Palace.
Obviously.
But I think that they wouldn't because like there's tourists in there all day.
I know that's like the weird thing about Buckingham Palace.
It's so big.
So like you don't ever like see a tourist on your way to go brush your teeth. But like she's literally living in the same place like all these snot nose,
you know, globetrotters come and like walk through the halls of.
It's really crazy.
It is.
But that's like so part of the royal fabric.
It's like you're a part of British tourism.
Yeah.
No, you live in a palace, but you're also kind of like a civil servant.
A civil servant.
Yeah.
So very interesting royal moves being made.
We shall see what happens next.
I wonder if Prince Andrew will be at the coronation.
I feel like no.
I feel like Charles is like really consumed by public perception.
Yeah.
And he wants to come out a hero.
And that kind of excluding Prince Andrew and not really reminding
everyone of him is a good place to start. I think he'll be there in a disgraced position,
like how at the funeral he, you know, walked in the back with Harry and they were both not wearing
garb. Right. If he wanted to kick him out of the royal foe completely,
he wouldn't be living in Frogmore.
True, true.
So I think.
Getting scraps.
Yeah, I don't think he'll have like a position of prominence,
but I think also a part of Charles wants to like follow in his mom's footsteps
and the way that she treated Andrew seemed to be good enough for everyone.
Yeah.
So it's just like a problem.
No, but it's like the treatment of a mother and a son
is so different than the treatment of a brother and a brother.
Like obviously there's a brotherly connection,
but I don't think they were ever that close.
I think the vibe I've gotten is like Andrew was her favorite too.
Favorite, yeah.
Even when he came in in the crown, like on his helicopter,
and he was just like, what's up y'all?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He's such a problem, honestly.
He's a big problem.
Nobody knows what to do with him.
It would have been easier if he literally just got convicted,
one, to answer for his crimes,
and two, so he'd be in jail and nobody had to deal with him.
And have somewhere to live.
Where do we seat him?
Where do we put him to live?
He's this never-ending problem.
And you can't even put him out to live like he's this like never-ending like problem and you can't
even like put him out to live on the street because he can't have a job and he doesn't I mean
he might have personal money but still you would have to like pay for where he lives and then it's
like the government's paying for and right right everything there's no winning with Andrew no he's
so problematic yeah so this is a solution for now are you ready for our next story a little tech news
a tech news tiktok will automatically limit teen app usage to 60 minutes per day
tiktok in an effort to show it's being a good internet citizen introduced new features to cap
the time kids spend on the video app.
In the next few weeks,
every TikTok account belonging to a user under the age of 18
will automatically be set
to a 60-minute daily screen time limit.
If the limit is reached,
teens will be prompted to enter a passcode
in order to continue watching,
requiring them to make an active decision
to extend that time.
Oh, wait, so they could just get around it?
Yeah, unless like someone sets the code
for them like a parent and they don't know the code but or when you sign up for your account
you just lie about your age it's not that hard yeah also tiktok for tiktok users under 13 which
is so scary i know what are you doing on tiktok the daily screen time limit will also be set for
60 minutes and for these accounts a parent or guardian must enter the passcode
to enable 30 minutes of additional watch time.
This is performative.
There are so many ways around this.
I think they've gotten so much flack over the years.
Like all the platforms are really toxic,
but there's something especially addicting and just flawed with TikTok
when it comes to like people,
especially girls whose
brains aren't fully developed and they're still very impressionable um and so this is just their
response to the backlash it's not a meaningful step forward and there's so many kids are so
when I think about how much shit we used to download illegally like when you when it comes
to kids and technology like they're fucking on it. They can figure shit out.
And this is not going to, by any means, decrease their screen time.
No.
It's giving fraudulent energy.
It is.
What more can TikTok do as an app that's also trying to make money?
Like what would you want to see from TikTok?
Is it TikTok's responsibility?
Is it parents' responsibility?
Is it government responsibility?
That's a good question.
I think it's everyone's.
I think probably most, and maybe you have a better answer, the parents.
Because there's always shit in this world that's bad.
And it's your parents' job to protect you from it.
But kids are so sneaky, you know?
Like they'll just fucking do whatever they want.
Can you tell a 17 year
old no like a 17 year old's gonna have a phone because they they do need a phone at 17 yeah how
can you police what they do on there I don't know how logistically you can do that I'm really
thinking and more concerned with kids who are like under 14 yeah well those kids are more in in like a parent's
yes jurisdiction yeah like they have to listen to their parents more I feel like there should definitely be like an age like how you couldn't get on Facebook back in the day until you were
in high school or college um first college then high school I think it would behoove a lot of the
platforms to have age limits that they that they really enforce like with Facebook back in the day you could not make a Facebook unless you had a college email that you
verified it was fucking hard yeah so and I actually think that's something I'm so grateful for like I
really didn't they didn't change the high school thing until I was in high school so like I was
at least 16 I I think that's not true but no no I had a Facebook in middle school no but you could get on as a
freshman it didn't happen while you were in high school I remember in middle school waiting to get
to high school and then I could have a Facebook got the minute I got my high school email address
I'm on Facebook it was the same for you yeah so I just think I think that was really helpful and
I don't even think they intended it to be but it was and having age limits on a lot of these platforms I think would be extremely that they actually enforce not just like you have to be 13 and then I can go make my birthday 1994 you know.
Right.
I think there's ways to actually if you actually cared there would be ways and policies and things but this is fraudulent.
It's performative.
Yeah.
There would need to be sweeping stuff. Also like when you get a phone,
if there would be a way to really put in your,
like the phone knows what age you are.
You can't download certain apps at that age.
Like I think if everybody came together,
because this is a crisis.
Our children are in crisis.
A hundred percent.
And it's on all of us to help them
because their kids are always going to go for,
you know, candy over
veggies. The thing that they can't get. You're so right. And I feel like all we do is talk about
the mental health crisis in this country. And like, all we do is just talk about how it's here.
Nobody wants to actively talk, talk, talk, talk, talk, talk, talk, talk, talk. And it's become
like a form of social currency. Like, oh, I have mental health problems. Oh, so do I. No one fucking
does anything. And we talk about how social media is bad. And where do we talk about it? On social media. Right. So it's like nobody actively does anything about it. So it's
like people don't actually care about the mental health crisis in this country. They just want to
talk about it. They just don't want to actually do anything. And this is an incredibly effective
place to start. If your phone knew how old you were and in the app store you were forbidden from
downloading certain apps until you were like 16.
Yeah, each app could like figure out amongst themselves.
Watch what would happen to the mental health crisis and the suicide rates in this country and the depression and the anxiety for girls who are 12 years old.
Yeah.
So if you actually, maybe if you actually fucking cared, you would do something about it.
Because we're sitting here for five minutes and we're two brain dead fucking morons.
And we came up with good ideas.
Or if there was like an app for kids that was like Instagram and TikTok,
but you could only follow people whose phone number you have.
So you're only following your friends.
And it really becomes like a social network and not following,
you know, a 12 year old girl following like some beautiful,
yeah, buxom 22 year old.
And then trying to like do her makeup just like her.
Yeah. But it's not even that. It's also like like that girl you know it's it winds up being a bad influence because you know
body image etc but then there are also people who are intentionally putting out
nefarious content and trying to fuck with kids yeah of course so i like my quality we should
build it we should start like a coalition. Yeah.
Where we like lobby.
It's an app for kids and you can only follow people's phone numbers you have.
There's no following influencers
and now everyone wants to be an influencer
because they follow them all day long.
Right.
Claudia, solved.
Problem solved.
Put us.
No.
Like.
That's what I'm saying.
We've been talking about this for five minutes
and we came up with like actually good effective ideas.
TikTok, this billion dollar company filled with like, you know, genius tech engineers.
This is the best they came up with.
This is bullshit.
Because they don't care.
Right.
They don't care.
No.
And TikTok is not concerned with American children's well-being.
No.
No.
No.
Are you ready for our fifth and final story, which is kind of like the collab of the century,
food news.
We haven't had food news in a while.
Okay, what is it?
And it's two brands that we love coming together.
Harmony, not acrimony.
Is it Spritz Society X The Skinny Confidential,
available at SpritzSociety.com,
our new pink lemonade flavor,
which is a limited edition collab with Lauren Bostic,
founder of The Skinny Confidential and host of the His and Hers podcast.
What Spritz X TSC is to the influencer and beverage community,
it is this to the fast food community.
McDonald's and Krispy Kreme are teaming up.
McDonald's is expanding their Krispy Kreme test to more Kentucky locations.
So McDonald's will sell Krispy Kreme donuts
at approximately 160 Kentucky locations
starting next month for a limited time.
It's an expansion of the Fast Food Giants initial test
with the sweet treats.
In October, nine McDonald's restaurants in Louisville
started selling Krispy Kreme donuts.
The large test is meant to assess customer demand and to understand how a larger scale launch would affect restaurant
operations. So they're not making like a collab item. They're just starting to sell donuts. Yes.
Let me tell you my thoughts on this. I think it's great because I think when it comes to dessert,
McDonald's definitely kind of flops because their ice cream machines are always broken.
dessert. McDonald's definitely kind of flops because their ice machine, their ice cream machines are always broken. I've never, I mean, I don't, I've never, I don't, I probably get
McFlurries like three times a year and it's always been a success. No, they're always broken. Of
course the McFlurry is a perfect kind of concoction. It is the greatest dessert literally in the world.
Honestly, maybe second only to a Krispy Kreme donut so I love this I do worry about quality
control you know Krispy Kreme donuts are perfect when they come from Krispy Kreme when they they
sell actually at my local Duane Reade they sell they have a little uh stand of Krispy Kreme
products and they have like boxes of glazed donuts and they're not even close to being as good
so as long as they can work on how to keep them fresh and maybe serve them hot.
I worry about that because I think overall McDonald's definitely has a quality control issue.
Like you can get a nugget at one place and nugget at the other and they literally taste completely different.
I wouldn't know.
Yeah.
Except the few times that I ordered fries from my local McDonald's in New York.
It was the ones that fell on the floor and were stomped on.
Right.
Like they have a they're not really all the same.
No. But I would start to order're not really all the same. No.
In fact, I would start to order from a further McDonald's. Of course.
If done correctly.
But then they're not hot.
You seriously can't win.
That's why you have to make your own fries and grow your own potatoes.
If done correctly, this could be great.
Yeah.
Because they are beefing up their coffee.
You know, they have the McCafe.
But what I also love is they're not trying to make a better donut. Yeah, because they are beefing up their coffee. You know, they have the McCafe.
But what I also love is they're not trying to make a better donut because someone at McDonald's knows that a better donut doesn't exist.
It's actually so true.
Why don't we team up?
There is no I in team.
There's no I in Krispy Kreme.
And make this a one-stop shop,
especially because for how many McDonald's there are in the country,
there's a fraction of the Krispy Kreme. So like imagine if every McDonald's in New York city,
obviously this isn't happening, had Krispy Kreme. All of a sudden there's dozens of Krispy Kremes
in New York city. No. And by the way, then McDonald's really becomes like an early morning
competitor to like a Dunkin' Donuts. Cause you want a good coffee and McDonald's coffee actually
is very popular and it's very good.
So then it's like, oh, let me get a coffee and a donut, coffee and an egg sandwich.
People really like their breakfast. Coffee and a McFlurry.
Coffee and a cigarette.
It's kind of becoming like a cafe, like a bistro, you know?
McCafe.
Right.
I like this.
I like this too.
I thought you would like it.
I do love Dunkin' Donuts.
I like it. No, because would like it I do love Dunkin Donuts I like it no because um I like it no I
do like Dunkin Donuts I like their egg wraps so that's good I don't love their coffee their
quality control is fucking frightening on coffee it's actually abysmal on everything a munchkin to to to tasty tasty I also absolutely love whenever
we have a fast food story because we obviously then just go into like talking about all the
different branches and the franchises things and we always get PR we end up getting an email like
hi loved your segment on Krispy Kreme can we send some product to the studio um and that's just
always it happens like a lot.
And it's very exciting.
So what are you hoping for today?
Some Krispy Kreme donuts?
I mean, I will just, I will literally never turn,
never in my life.
I could be on literally death's door.
I will never turn down a Krispy Kreme donut.
Well, that's when I would accept one most immediately.
No, like I'm so sick.
I'm on death's door.
I'm so sick.
I can't put anything in my body.
And then like somebody cruises by with a donut.'m like hey give me that yeah yeah yeah so good
especially when they're fresh from the oven yeah but you could also just warm them up you know
15 seconds in the microwave really really good obviously not hot off the presses but
stellar actually I just had one like a few weeks ago because Danny brought some over when she came
to visit us which was just so sweet and generous the last time I had one like a few weeks ago because Danny brought some over when she came to visit us, which was just so sweet and generous.
The last time I had one actually was December.
When did I film my special?
December.
Because there was like a crew of like 40 people and I wanted to get them like a snack.
So I got them all donuts like for me, but also for them.
And I got like eight boxes for everyone.
And I had like six.
It was so good.
You definitely didn't have six. them and I got like eight boxes for everyone and I had like six it was so good you definitely didn't have six no I had like two you definitely didn't because I know
you now and you're so slim no I had two you had two cream yeah throughout the day throughout the
day okay okay throughout the day one when the boxes got there because I wanted them fresh and
then two like after the show like I worked hard it's a long day sorry I thought you meant like just like you chowed down two at a time no I'm trying to be better with that
um are you ready to dive into dear toasters with the update that's going to literally bring a tear

into Dear Toasters. Are you ready? I'm ready to dive in. Hey, Jackson Claude. I'm a longtime
listener here. My fiance and I have been together for six years and we are getting married this
summer. Since I was a teenager, I have been so insecure about the hump on my nose.
Now that I'm grown and I'm in a more financially stable situation, I've been thinking about
finally getting my nose done, especially before our wedding.
My fiance, unfortunately, does not support this at all.
He thinks plastic surgery is superficial and says he will never be able to look at me the
same way again.
Part of my work requires me to spend time on camera, so it's something that really bothers me.
I know there is some recovery time from rhinoplasty,
and we plan to start a family next year,
so it's something I would like to take care of before that.
I'd like to start this new season of my life feeling more confident.
However, it causes conflict every time I try to bring it up.
Any advice on how to navigate this is welcome.
That's really tough.
I mean, it literally doesn't matter what that man thinks.
Like,
of course you want his support.
And in an ideal world,
he would support you.
And of course,
you know,
it's better to have a husband that's like,
no,
you're beautiful.
Don't get plastic surgery.
And then one who's like shoving you out the door and paying the bill.
Right.
Oh my God.
That's actually paying the bill.
Shove me,
shove me all the way. Yeah. Um, my only only thing is like you've waited so long to get it
and you're getting married this summer it kind of seems like kind of quick to just like
now you have to find a doctor and have a consultation and get the surgery and recover
before your wedding while also wedding planning and I kind of would advise just having like a little less haste, you know, because now it
feels like we're in a rush when like your whole life.
I totally disagree.
I know you're going to get a new nose, like do it before your wedding.
But like, well, not only that, like I literally just experienced this with a really good friend
of mine.
She was getting married.
She hated her nose a whole life and she just she did it before and she was wedding planning
and it was stressful, all that. And she was was so happy she was so happy on her wedding day
she looked beautiful she loves her nose now after and she gets to live her life as a married woman
with a new nose and it was literally if you ask her like she will say it was the best decision
she ever made and maybe she would have said it was done how soon how far away from her wedding
did she do it? Let me think.
You know what?
She had a cast on her nose at her bachelorette party.
When was her bachelorette party in relation to her wedding?
My bachelorette party was four months before.
Let me think.
Hold on.
Claudia's not good with dates.
This is really.
I know.
I'm trying to think.
Do you remember what month she got married?
I could tell you because I have pictures from the wedding. If you tell me where she got married I could tell you because like because
I picture if you tell me where it was I'll tell you I don't want to like I don't want to spot
like oh she got a nose job even though I don't think she cares but like I'm not trying to be
that bitch where is this place on the map hold on oh here so she got married August.
Okay.
And,
and the bachelorette,
I can check also when my pictures are.
The bachelorette was,
I think it's important.
Just give me a second.
It is. It is. Okay. The bachelorette was May. Okay. Just give me a second. It is.
It is.
Okay.
The bachelorette was May.
Okay.
And she had a cast.
So she got it in May and she got married in August.
So it is,
Oh,
it's only March now.
Okay. But like,
you've got to like,
you literally have to call a doctor today then.
Yeah.
Like you,
you need to make a decision now.
So like,
cause you don't have that much time,
but I'm all here for it.
Like,
I feel like I'm so, I'm not a a pusher but I'm so into plastic surgery about things that really
bother you like that's just my philosophy I hate this thing like embrace who you are like what if
I don't want to my body my motherfucking choice and it sounds like you're not looking for a new
nose you're just looking to shave the hump and I think that your husband well it is your body
your choice so make the decision that's best for And I think that your husband, well, it is your body, your choice.
So make the decision that's best for you.
I think that when your husband sees
how little you've actually changed yourself,
he will be like, oh, okay.
I remember when I first was getting Botox
and Zach was like, no plastic surgery.
Literally.
The way you are.
I was like, shut up.
And I literally, I don't remember
if I did wind up telling him I was doing it,
but I also know I came home that day
and he didn't even fucking know
that there was something different with me.
No men are so myopic.
Surgery is different than a nose job.
I mean,
surgery is different than injectables and you have to go under.
So you absolutely have to tell him he's got to pick you up.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You need to ride.
Yeah.
But I think he'll be shocked at how the same you look.
Yeah.
But I'm really here for it.
Like your wedding is an important day.
It's something that you've said bothered you for years like your whole life do it you're gonna like I'm
all for like taking control of the things in your life that bother you whatever it is I agree with
that oh my god it's so it's so freeing when you realize like I don't have to accept the things I
don't like yeah and then that's just like something that's just taken off of your shoulders is something
that you're thinking about all the time.
Yeah.
Nice.
Yeah.
I'm here for it.
Great.
All right.
Hello, Jackie Owen Leturdia.
I'm a loyal Gen Z toaster.
I came across one of your viral TikToks.
I've wanted to send it to your toasters and I finally have a reason to get some advice.
I'm a 21-year-old college girl and I've been dating a PJom Bryce for a year and a half.
So sweet, incredibly intelligent, yada, yada, yada. To put it simply,
he's 23 and balding. He's extremely in denial and is convinced his hair is just, he just has a
really defined widow's peak. He will even pull his hair back and go, see, my hair goes all the way
back and it makes a triangle at my forehead. One time when trying to convince me he actually had
a widow's peak, he Googled widow's peak and sent me an article that literally proved he had one.
It was actually an article titled how to tell if your widow's peak is a receding hairline.
I love this man tremendously. And while his hair doesn't affect my obsession with him,
I'm beginning to notice it more and more. Is it a big deal? Do I tell him, do I slip hair growth
vitamins into his drinks? Am I a horrible shallow person for even thinking about this so much?
I would love the support and help for him in his hair growth journey if he wants that.
It just is really noticeable to me, and I hate that he is living in such a state of
denial, which is so jarring because he's so smart.
Thanks so much.
Love you guys.
XOXO.
A toaster with a balding boyfriend.
This wouldn't bother me.
It wouldn't bother me either, but let me tell you how men really are in denial about their hair. It's like women worry about so many things like aging, wrinkles,
saggy boobs, crow's feet. And like men really have one thing and it's their hair. Like if you
even bring it up, they're so motherfucking like defensive about it. Like Ben has really thick
hair and Ben's dad, Bruce has like a mop. So Ben has good, it's a lot of it is genes.
But you know, I, sometimes I'm like, Ben, why don't you like, if I see like maybe like
a little thinning, I'm like, why don't you just like start Rogaine?
Like it can't hurt.
Yeah, it can.
Why would you put chemicals into your system if you don't have to?
Rogaine is like a little thinning.
No, but like Rogaine is an extreme.
Okay.
A vitamin, something.
Like a Nutrafol you could do.
Yeah, that's better.
Right, I'm like, why don't you just start?
Like, you know, it really can't hurt preventative.
So defensive.
No, there are things that can, like, especially this,
like you're talking about a little bit of thinning.
This person is talking about like actual balding.
Like he could start Propecia, which can cause.
Infertility.
Infertility.
Like there actually is like, why not? No, but I'm not suggesting he start Propecia. Also like there it actually is like why not like no but i'm not
suggesting you start propitia also like a bald man like is a nice look and if he does if it doesn't
bother him yet and he's like in denial like let him live in his denial imagine there was something
like you were aging and like you you weren't like phased about it but ben was like you have to get
no wait look at your crow's feet let's go back to the one previously we're getting married
you should shave the hump off your nose I think that this girl especially you love him so much
and it's like once you fall in love with someone who cares what they look like if anything his
balding hair he walks around with it doesn't realize it'll stave off other girls like a hundred
percent problem yeah and he'll come around to around to it when it starts to bother him,
when he realizes it.
If he wants to do something about it,
there are obviously things that he could do.
But he also doesn't have to do anything about it.
Yeah, he can also shave his head.
Like, the thing with men, which is so frustrating,
is, like, the one thing they struggle with is balding.
And, like, being bald is also a look, you know?
Yeah.
They made it into a look.
It's like, women, we're worried about skin saggy.
And, like, saggy skin doesn't become a look. it's so unfair no it's it's so unfair it's not something
that would bother me and you love him already like love is blind once love is it's actually
not that's what we learned no I just I also want to say like I'm in love and I'm not blind like if
there's something wrong but if Ben lost his, it would literally not mean anything to your relationship.
No, not to our relationship, but he has an egghead.
I think honestly, Ben losing his hair would be really bad.
But for him, like he would have to go through it.
Like it would be emotional for him.
It'd be emotional for me too.
I want him to be happy.
Right.
You would be, but not because of the loss of hair for you.
No, I wouldn't be unattracted
to him no no no right yeah I think you could let this go yeah you don't especially if it doesn't
bother him and you know if it's really going as rapidly as you say it is he will notice soon
enough and he will either take measures or decide to you know live a bald life and this is really a
him problem and something a journey that he has to kind of walk alone
yeah I walk a lonely road lonely road that's all I've ever known
okay ready for like the big deer toasters update I'm ready so I have her original submission here
she was 36 years old she had two serious relationships it didn't work out but she
had a really steady job in an apartment.
And she was in this crossroads because she wanted to have a baby.
And she was thinking more and more about doing it on her own.
Yes.
She wrote to us for advice asking, you know, Jackie, do you think you could ever do it alone?
Do you have any friends who have done this?
But she wondered what we said.
And we totally encouraged her.
Yeah.
But we also urged like caution because it's not easy and takes a village.
Do you have a village?
But we also said, you know, if you know, you only have so much time as a woman, unfortunately,
and like if this is something that's so important to you, do it.
So ready?
Hi, Claudia and Jackie.
I'm writing with an update for my dear toaster submission.
I'm the 36 year old toaster looking into single motherhood.
After careful consideration, I decided to go with the single mother by choice route. I went to a fertility clinic. I started making the moves,
blood work, ultrasounds, etc. One day in early December, I was online looking at sperm donors
when I heard Taylor Swift's lover playing on the speaker outside my apartment.
I opened the door and there's my ex-boyfriend with a ring asking me to marry him. We had broken up a
year ago because he wasn't ready to get married and i needed the commitment i was so surprised and so happy fast forward a few months
we just found out a few weeks ago that i'm pregnant i'm literally gonna cry we must have
gotten pregnant right when we got back together because i'm now 13 weeks along i guess our
favorite saying is true man plans god laughs congrats to jackie on her second pregnancy i'm so happy that we're on the same timeline i mean it couldn't get better you couldn't write it better than that i know oh my
god i'm obsessed i didn't know that those things happen i know and i feel like this is proof that
like when you prioritize yourself and like you make yourself happy and like you do
what's right for you like good things happen yeah like you don't seek validation in others
in relationships like you want something you're doing it on your own like people are attracted
to that yeah I literally got emotional reading that like I have full body chills I'm so happy for you I'm so happy for you this is
the most amazing outcome I didn't know that ex-boyfriends just show up with a ring playing
lover you know what because she probably she said I want a commitment and she bounced for a whole
ass year she let this man spiral and he saw the best thing walk out of his life.
So much so that he ran and got a ring.
You know, we could learn a lot from this girl.
She's a queen.
Queen.
I'm so happy for you, Mazel Tov.
Oh, I'm so happy.
And you're pregnant at the same time as Jackie O.
