Good morning, Millennials! Welcome back to the Morning Toast. Happy Monday! Hope everyone's having an amazing day. Yes, happy Monday. Wow, fresh week. Fresh week. Felt like a long weekend because it was the holiday, so we were just like holidaying around and it wasn't really like a weekend weekend. But I still, I took the rest nonetheless. Yeah, it was a very nice Rosh Hashanah weekend. It's a new year over here, you know, in the Jewish calendar. And we're going to take that new year and we're going to try and, you know, turn some things around. Turn some things around. Turn the beat around. So I hope everyone had an amazing holiday if they were celebrating it.

And if not, I hope you just like blacked out on your couch and had a good time. Totally. It was filled with highs and lows. You know, some news came out on Friday night during the holiday that Ruth Bader Ginsburg had passed away, a fellow Jewish queen. So we'd be RDH if we didn't mention her memory being a blessing. And you know, they say, actually, that people who die this time of year

are like exceptional people. Our father died like next week. Yeah, it's the time in between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. And this is also the 10 days where the book of life is being written. So you want to be on your best behavior. The book is open.

So it's to be inscribed in the book of life. Oh, you know, I forgot that we're supposed to be behaving. Right. So just like think about that when we report on stories, Lashon Hara. Maybe we'll be granting extra forgiveness. Like lucky for you, Ellen. Lashon Hara is like what I struggle with the most. For those who don't know, Lashon Hara is like gossip.

And it's like honestly one of the biggest sins it really is like it's it the the translation of the words is like speaking evil so i feel like where do we draw the line between like sharing information regarding someone else yes and lashon hara speaking evil so i feel like you know it's being like oh my god like jackie's gotten so ugly like that's lush and her it's really that's really fucking mean oh you know what I mean? Or, but like, do you just like. Or you could say like, but say I had gotten really ugly. Like let's say something happened overnight.

A curse was put on you. You could say, wow, Jackie's appearance has changed. Is that lush and hurrah? I think that's fact stating. That is just like the communicating and spreading of information. Yes. But speaking of Jackie's appearance changing, it actually has changed a little since Friday because on Friday after the show, we went to Dr. Sharangisi's office

to get some injectables. We were talking about it all week and then we decided to vlog the experience. Right. So if you're wondering what goes down at Dr. Sharangisi's, like how much Botox we use when we do it, Claudia got her lips done. I got some InstaLypo. If you're curious about what that all looks like, head to our Patreon channel, patreon.com slash the morning toast and check it out. It was really like informational. I was I was like asking questions while I was filming just to like stimulate conversation. But Sharon Giese is just a wealth of knowledge. And honestly, I'm so happy with the way that I look.

Usually after I get my lips done the first week, I hate it. Second week, I go into like a little depression. Then third week, I really like it. But I'm she did like the perfect amount. I'm so happy with how it turned out um and people are always asking us like about the particulars like how much how many cc's do we get and we asked Dr. Gizzi all that so it was actually uh turned out to be quite an educational video they should show it in schools they should show it in schools and now my forehead is in check let me say and it's just oh nice nice yeah it's crazy when I was editing the video like you filmed

really up close and personal. Like you really do see the wrinkles. I feel like I do a good job on this show of like not letting my face get super wrinkly and expressive. But those wrinkles are there. And like that Botox is working OT, you know? I just love plastic surgery. And I'm here to destigmatize and be transparent. So go watch the video.

Go watch the video. But also if plastic surgery is not for you, that's beautiful as well. You know? That's the great thing about being a human being. Like, you can do what you want. It's so beautiful. You know what's so beautiful? Just, like, making your own choices and, like, not judging other people.

That, over the past few years, has become, like, my life's identity. It's like, I don't care what anyone else does, and nobody needs to care about what I do. Like, just fuck off. Yeah. I think that should be, like, the new U.S. policy like everyone just fuck off Claudia that's beautiful I think I think I want something you know what else is beautiful yesterday Claudia and I went to Zara oh my god I haven't been in so I don't think I've been in like two years and we did a major haul we should actually do like a YouTube haul. That's how much stuff we got. My shirt is from Zara. My sweater is from Zara. And everything I'll be wearing for the next three weeks. Like I could wear something new every single day for three weeks and then be

finished with my haul. Like that's how much stuff I got. So many cardigans, so many basics. Like I feel like I'm always looking for just a top, like nothing. I don't wear like prints or anything. So nothing that's going to like shake up the world, yeah just something to cover my body and Zara really had it all Zara is like almost a perfect store like if they just had a normal online shopping experience they would be like a 10 out of 10 store but with like all the confusing poses and like all the big pictures and the website like doesn't scroll it is the worst website on the face of the earth so they're like almost a perfect store yeah I guess it's a good in-store experience we just grabbed everything we didn't try on um and it worked out well for me but I also didn't buy anything that like I wasn't certain

of the silhouette you know like that dress I almost bought I'm so glad that I didn't well I had to return four items and you know you could return at any Zara and I live right by one we went to one like far away but you can return to any isn't that like a fabulous store policy that is a fabulous store policy and we saw a toaster I want to give her uh oh my god a shout out she was so nice she literally said the night we're getting on the escalator to leave and as we're like on the third step she like comes and grabs our hands and she's like but she didn't touch our hands just she touched mine oh okay oh I'm not weird like you it was lovely lovely. I enjoyed it. Human contact, finally. She said, I just want to let you guys know, you are the loves of my life.

And I was like, what did you just say? It was beautiful. It was a beautiful moment between Steens. So, Aaliyah, I think her name was. Thanks. Thank you. Thank you, girl. So, we have a fabulous show.

Lots of news. I actually wanted to talk about something. Because we do have two big Housewives stories today. And we did a lot of Housewives content on Friday. people are getting housewives fatigued yeah and I thought that like I was giving the people what they wanted but it turns out that like we're not like a Bravo recap show but like I thought that we were so I think that some people watching are getting exactly what they want people love when we talk about housewives but not everyone that watches our show watches housewives and I think they accept know, some level of Housewives chatter. The recap.

The recap. And I think they just enjoy hearing us talk about stuff. So if it's Housewives or other stuff, whatever. But right now, all these shows are in transition. Like, so not only are we recapping them, but there's like news articles about them. And so it's definitely Housewives heavy, but these things are just cyclical.

And we're going to try and be aware of it. But there's like two Housewives stories today that like are the big stories of the day. And we have to recap Potomac. And I also started New York from the beginning. I don't know if I mentioned that. So it's just been like really top of mind. Speaking of my journey on New York housewives, I'm at the point where there is the break between Jill and, um, Bethany and it's, it is so painful. Like I actually have slowed down. Like I was watching like 10 episodes a day and now I literally watch like two episodes the whole weekend because it's so painful for me and honestly I feel like I'm still taking Jill's side even though I love I love Bethany like to this day she's one of my

favorite housewives I'm still taking Jill's side have you gotten to the scene in Luann's apartment no it's very new it's there's still a fashion for me that is like everyone was on Jill's side but the scene in Luann's apartment where Jill is like like running around like in the apartment like she's being chased and like Luann is is by the way getting in between Jill and Bethany like that's when I turned and I was like oh this woman is trying to apologize for something that was like doesn't seem unforgivable yes and Jill has overplayed her hand at this point and that is what happened that is what happened Jill was kind of in the right Jill had a tough summer with Bobby and like all this stuff was happening for Bethany and I don't think that Jill was ever really jealous I think like Jill just wanted to be a part of it like she's she's like a yenta she like

wanted to be involved and I think Bethany just like kind of took off and like forgot a little bit where she came from and she's it wasn't it wasn't that big of a deal no but it turned into like this huge thing yeah but it's just it's really to watch. I'm sorry that you're going through that. So I've been like paused. And I'm sorry you guys will have to hear about like all different sorts of Housewives news. Yeah, sorry. But we have other news. Lots of, Ellen premiered today, which is kind of the biggest story.

Yeah, and the Emmys, which we didn't watch, but we have some of the highlights. And finally, Schitt's Creek got their comeuppance and we're very thrilled about it. Let me tell you why I literally did not watch the Emmys because for the most part um I really like award shows. Emmys is probably my least favorite. Yes. Because I watch like trash tv and unfortunately the Emmys does not recognize trash tv. That's true. What do you like less Emmys or the Golden Globes? Uh Emmys. I think the Golden Globes are first of all a little bit more A-list oh because they're movies and music so like Taylor Swift was there last year the Golden Globes are like so serious it's like the definition of like

Hollywood taking itself too seriously I feel like the Golden Globes actually does a good job of picking hosts whereas the Emmys is always Jimmy Kimmel yeah you know I actually like the Golden Globes way better like definitively but I always watch all the shows because the red carpet is just like so pleasurable. But there is no red carpet because of coronavirus. And I saw a couple networks doing like virtual red carpets. And as much as I would literally like take a knife through my heart for Justin Sylvester and Morgan Stewart, like I was not watching that.

Yeah. Yeah, I agree with that. I didn't watch the Emmys, not because of red carpet even. I just like the way that it was set up after watching the CMAs where they did a pretty good job and like, the ACMs and I actually felt for a second like I like I forgot what was going on in the world like the Emmys made absolutely no effort to distract also there was like no commercials for it no I mean I didn't even know it was on I knew it was on and I actively chose not to watch it but then Rebecca texted me and she was like oh my god Moira won oh so I was like okay so I went to the channel and then Schitt's Creek was just like

pulling them all in because we were in the comedy category and then I had to go and watch Real House of Potomac so I got to see the setup a little bit enough to know that it was like really really bad yeah but what I did think was interesting was what from the clips that I saw I thought the most fun part was how people were set up at home watching the Emmys like having nothing to do with the actual production of the Emmys like people who were nominated were either like alone in their houses Zendaya was like with her whole family her whole team Schitt's Creek like through their own little Emmys they all like little tables that I thought was well done and that had nothing to do with ABC or whoever was putting on the show yeah so I agree it was cute

when like a lot of the shows got together and had a watch party together but like it was still so sad like the Schitt's Creek party looked like it was at the Rosebud Motel like no but I thought it was so cute like it was cute it looked like a bat mitzvah but like it wasn't no imagine like this is your year you win all the Emmys and like you're literally standing in a tent outside in Canada yeah so anyways let's just if we're gonna talk about the Emmys let's get into the fast five stories that you need to know before you wake up and take a bite out of your morning toast. And Jackie, if I may, I have a very important announcement.

Not only, I saw the doctor and not only do I have a very severe case of RDH, I also have a very severe case of morning breath. So he prescribed me Bruch. Ugh, he's a genius. Which is, honestly, first of all, my favorite product to talk about here on the toast because i really use i literally used it this morning and because bruch bruch so bruch is a fabulous electronic toothbrush it's literally the sound it makes and it's millennial pink it's like so on brand for us yeah you guys i used my bruch this morning i've been using bruch since we got it and it's incredible it's the best toothbrush

Love it. Okay, well, first story. Schitt's Creek sweeps the Emmys. It was a night to remember, Daniel Levy says.

After years of critical acclaim and a growing fan base, Schitt's Creek has finally won its first Emmy and then some. First, the show took home two statuettes at Saturday's Creative Arts Emmys ceremony. And then last night at the Primetime Awards, Catherine O'Hara, a.k.a. Moira Rose, won Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series. Eugene Levy won Outstanding lead actor in a comedy. Daniel Levy, one outstanding supporting actor in a comedy. And Annie Murphy, one outstanding supporting actress in a comedy.

In total, Schitt's Creek won nine Emmys last night, setting a new record. I just find it so crazy that Moira and Johnny Rose are considered the lead actors and Alexis and I too find that interesting and David are considered the supporting. I would think that the show is actually more about the kids than it is about the parents. I would think so too but far be it from me to say who is the lead actor. What's that from? That's Moira. Oh oh my god did you see Moira's acceptance speech? No. It was as if Moira Rose literally won an Emmy. We would expect nothing less. What was that movie she was working on?

Crows. Crowsnester. Yeah. It was as if she won an Emmy for Crowsnest. She did. And was giving a speech. Like, she was so Moira. And I don't know if it was just Catherine O'Hara, like, giving a nod to the excellence

of Moira Rose. Or, like, life means art and this is who she is. Right. I mean, it would have been, like, an amazing method acting thing to like literally accept the award as Moira Rose because the character Moira like her winning an Emmy is her life's dream and yeah it's not that far she is like a z-list celebrity like it could have happened um I mean this is so fabulous I feel really proud that like I actually been watching Schitt's Creek since season one like I'm not I never had to binge I'm not like a bandwagon and And it was, it's, it's just an amazing thing where it's like,

this show is not on a primetime network. It's impossible to watch until it gets on Netflix. Like I don't have pop TV. Some people have it. You have it on YouTube TV. It's like a random ass channel. So to get so, so much critical acclimation and all these awards is all you can hope for as any show, especially show that's not even on a real channel.

Yeah, they really started from the bottom and now they are here. And with their final season, it's nice that they finally got all the credit that they deserved. I was just hoping for at least like one Emmy so that Schitt's Creek could be called like an Emmy winning show.

And I hope that one Emmy would be for Moira. But for everyone to have won, like really a beautiful end to the Schitt's Creek story. I haven't watched the final season. It's like something I'm saving so hard I completely agree I'm saving it as well I definitely saw some spoilers like last night oh you did no I mean it's hard with spoilers it's not a show about like what's gonna happen next it's just like a show about where we are now and how are we gonna make it a funny situation right I'm just like do the roses get their money back and then like build a palace in Schitt's Creek we spoke about this like a while ago and of course someone like had to spoil it

for me and I don't spoil please no no I tried to put it out of my bed as my head as best as I can so I like I know some stuff but I don't really know I feel like now Schitt's Creek is like in the news like if I don't watch it soon like it might actually get spoiled for me maybe that's what I'll do today yeah I've just been holding on to it like for like a really long plane ride like something where I just really really need it that's what I'll do today. But I've just been holding on to it, like, for, like, a really long plane ride. Like, something where I just really, really need it. Oh, that's good for a really long plane ride. That's an interesting one. I don't know, like, maybe we have to take a trip just so I can watch Schitt's Creek.

Yeah, I'm so down for that. Yeah. I'm just, I'm so happy for Moira. Also, something weird. I'm watching Love Island, and one of the contestants' names is Moira. What? Is she 97 years old? No, she's, like, a vibrant young thing and that's crazy. It's so

crazy but now it's like so normal on the show. It's not normal. And it's like it's it's so crazy. That's insane. It's insane. Yeah I hope she watches Schitt's Creek. I hope that um I'm just curious like is Moira Rose really like who Catherine O'ara is? Or is Catherine O'Hara the greatest actress of all time? You know what I mean? I just feel like there's no way that Catherine O'Hara isn't Moira. They have become one. So it's like either she just is who she is and played that character on TV, or she is probably the greatest actress of our time.

I think it's a little bit of both. You know, I think that Catherine O'Hara has some Moira in her, but I also think that we all have some Moira in her, but I also think that we all have some Moira in us. Definitely. But I think that Moira is, you know, an extreme version of something that Catherine O'Hara like might have inside of her. Yeah. You know what? The character. With an incredible vocabulary. Incredible. You know who the character kind of reminds me of in a sense that I feel as though they were a breakout star from like their show and to me that person will always be their character? Titus Andromedon. Like they give me similar vibes where it's like whoever the brainchild of this

character was like is a genius and whoever put Titus Burgess in this role is perfect because no one else could have been Titus Andromedon and maybe the show wouldn't have been what it was without Titus Burgess and without Catherine O'Hara. Like, that's how I feel. Yeah. And it's like everything that comes out of their mouth is a beautifully scripted, hilarious joke that was written by a genius.

Yeah, I agree with that. And like, they never cease to not make me laugh. It's very true. Okay, now I'm like missing Schitt's Creek. I think I'm gonna go take the plunge soon. Yeah, honestly, I kind of want to start from the beginning and watch the whole thing through. It's an'm going to go take the plunge soon. Yeah, honestly, I kind of want to start from the beginning and watch the whole thing through. It's an easy show to binge.

The episodes are short. There's not that many episodes in a season. Now I'm on Real Housewives of New York where it's like 20 episodes and they're each an hour. 24 episodes. That's a lot. That's a lot. There's not even that many episodes now.

Bravo like started 10 episodes and then when the shows got really popular it was like 22, 24. And now they're at like 15 to 18, which I think is a reasonable amount. is a reasonable amount but here are the the other Emmys 2020 winners hope your fave one outstanding comedy series Schitt's Creek outstanding drama series Succession don't watch I don't watch but people are obsessed with it see I only watch Schitt's Creek I don't watch any of these shows I've now tried to watch Succession

I think twice where I like watch the first episode and a half and like I can't make it past that point it's so strange it is what it is outstanding lead actor in a drama series Jeremy Strong Succession outstanding lead actress in a drama series Zendaya Euphoria big deal this is a big deal only second black woman to ever win in the category and now she's the youngest person to ever win because she's only 24 and she had her whole family behind her and they were like literally just sobbing but here's what I was thinking there was an Emmy in the room because some guy brought it up to her it's like did she know I watched her reaction video because it was so sweet the person who brought it up to her probably like had her address and knew that's where he was going he looked like a member of her team like he was literally celebrating with

everyone oh well then maybe like someone gave it to someone on her team and like hit it I don't know yeah the guy was not in a hazmat suit I saw the hazmat suits that were delivering awards but I don't know I'm just curious like everyone was surprised yeah because that's the best part of an award show like seeing people surprised and then like when they don't win it's like yeah I'm still happy you know yeah outstanding lead actor in a limited series or a movie Mark Ruffalo I know this much is true literally never even heard of it yeah no oh Hugh Jackman bad education should have won fabulous movie I know we've spoken about it but I can't recommend it enough oh or Paul Paul Mezcal normal people or Jeremy Poe Hollywood yeah honestly Paul Mezcal Hollywood

normal people or Jeremy Poe Hollywood yeah honestly Paul Mezcal Hollywood winner normal people what did I say Hollywood Paul Mezcal normal people winner outstanding lead actress in a limited series or a movie Regina King Watchmen I love Regina King so much I only want positive happy things for her like every award she has to win outstanding lead actor in a comedy series Eugene Levy Schitt's Creekstanding lead actor in a comedy series, Eugene Levy, Schitt's Creek. Outstanding lead actress in a comedy series, Catherine O'Hara, Schitt's Creek. Outstanding reality competition, RuPaul's Drag Race. RuPaul's Drag Race. They win every year. It's like, you know, it's like not even a big deal for Ru, like just so many Emmys, so little time. But I just absolutely love like the winning and just like the overall success of the franchise, World of Wonder. I'm so happy for everyone.

It's fabulous. It's fabulous. Outstanding. Oh, and by the way, he dedicated the award to Chi Chi Devane, who was on a few seasons ago and recently passed away. Really, really sad. Such a young star. Really, really sad.

That is really sad. Outstanding Variety Talk Series last week tonight with John Oliver. Really? really are we sure about that they're all the same like what are the other ones Daily Show with Trevor Noah Full Frontal with Samantha Bee Jimmy Kim Alive Late Show with Stephen Colbert like like they're all the same except for Samantha Bee who's like the only woman but um I guess I don't have a horse in this race I guess no me neither but I guess like they're all the same like whose do people like the most? And I guess I would say John Oliver. Yeah,

people do like John Oliver. And it's like unique and he's like funny and quirky like with his glasses. So I guess I'm happy for him. Outstanding limited series,

Watchmen. I'm just, oh, Unorthodox was there, didn't win. Oh, that was really good. Little Fires Everywhere

didn't win. I didn't like it. No, me neither. Outstanding supporting actor in a comedy series, Daniel Levy, Schitt's Creek. Supporting actress in a comedy series, Annie Murphy it. No me neither. Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series Daniel Levy Schitt's Creek. Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series Annie Murphy Schitt's Creek. Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series Billy Crudup The Morning Show. Oh they got to win an Emmy.

Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series Julia Garner Ozark. People love her. And then... I just don't watch a lot of these shows which is so crazy because to me it's like nobody knows more about like pop culture film and tv than me but I guess I don't really watch like critically acclaimed shows I watch a couple of these shows I've seen unorthodox I've seen Schitt's Creek um RuPaul's Drag Race but I don't like watch like Ozark or Succession or fancy like great tv shows and I think that's why we didn't watch jammies because when we went through the nominees we had this same we came to the same conclusion's why we didn't watch the Emmys because when we went through the nominees we had this same, we came to the same conclusion that like

we don't watch these shows. Titus Burgess was nominated for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Limited Series or a Movie. Yaya Abdul-Mateen from Watchmen won. I don't even know what that is. And then Supporting Actress in a Limited Series or a Movie was Uzu Aduba from Mrs. America. I never saw it but

she is a phenomenal actress. And then Outstanding Variety Sketch Series, SNL. I don't know. I feel like if there was ever a year for SNL to not win, it would be this year. By the way,

who else gets nominated in the sketch comedy category? A Black Lady Sketch Show and Drunk History. Oh. Only three nominees. That's so little. Sketch comedy's a dying art.

Ariana Maddox must be really upset. Yeah, or maybe this is a good time for her to get involved in a bigger way. Or maybe this is a good time for her to get involved in a bigger way. Or maybe this is a good time to start a sketch comedy show. Yeah. Sketch comedy's, like, fun.

It's, like, camp. Like, skits, you know? Yeah, it is fun. So those are Emmy winners. Congrats to all the winners and nominees. It's an honor to be nominated. Yeah, not, like, this year. Like, it's not as glamorous.

But you still get to, like, keep the award. So it counts. Yeah, it still counts. Yeah. I'm just glad, like, I didn't win my Emmy this year Miami this year because like it honestly would have been like a lockdown I totally agree I'm thinking next year yeah um next story another really big story of the day Ellen DeGeneres is addressing the controversy in her season 18 premiere so we had spoken about like whether or not we thought she was going to address this and at one point the story was so big like how could she not but she wasn't set to start her new season until

September so like honestly I had like forgotten a little bit about it and I was still really shocked that she addressed it because even in the whole shit storm we never really heard from like Ellen or her team it was always like Warner Media and like all these like fancy statements. Yeah so she um did her monologue for her show today addressing the investigation and the um allegations made against her show and and you know the allegations made against her that she is not a nice person and she addressed it like on a serious note and also on a light note she definitely incorporated some jokes which I found to be actually really annoying um she was reading from a teleprompter and it was very much like stand-up-ish almost yeah um and the only other

person in the room was Twitch because they had a virtual audience and I think a lot of people were like waiting to hear from Twitch he's become like a huge TikToker like him and his wife are they like are amazing dancers and their kid is really cute and they've just been like blown up on TikTok and I think a lot of people were like wanting to hear from him and he didn't really speak out. And now literally he was the only person on stage like clapping so hard. So it's clear where he stands. He like stands Ellen.

Right. So she apologized for her involvement in things that transpired. You know, she said her name is on the show. Anything that happens at the show, even if she's not privy to it at the time, is her responsibility. And that, you know, she's sorry for those things and that they've taken the actions to remedy and change and fix what's been going on and that also this rumor about her not being nice even though she's the nice lady she's like yeah you know I am other things sometimes I'm tired sometimes I'm sad

sometimes I'm mad sometimes I'm angry impatient um and that she's gonna work on those things yeah I mean to be honest I feel like I feel this way about like most quote-unquote like cancellations is people hate Ellen and people love Ellen and I think the people that love Ellen were just wanting her to move on and talk about it and then get over it and the people that hated her like they're not gonna think it was enough like that's really similar to how I felt about Stassi's interview last week. It's like people pretty much have made up their minds and maybe dissuade them one way or another.

But for the most part, like you either love Ellen or you hate Ellen. Yeah, I feel like watching this video, I'm not someone who either loves Ellen or hates Ellen. I don't really care. But when I watched her apology and just addressing everything it definitely like softened my heart towards her because I felt you know it it's hard to say

whether or not she's genuine like she is an actress but you know what she's like she is an actress yes but like she's apologizing I don't know I just I I want to accept it and move on like it's not for me to accept because I'm not someone who worked on her team and was affected by her actions at all. But just as like someone, like the millions of viewers, you know, who aren't directly impacted but have an opinion on Ellen. I just felt like, okay, I can accept this and try and move forward as a viewer. As an impartial. Yeah, as just a bystander and someone who comments on pop culture.

Right. I just, but that is who I am. Like, every time we have these sorts of things that come up with, like, celebrities saying something or doing something or getting in trouble for something, and then, like, they apologize, you know, unless it's a really half-assed apology, like, I tend to accept it. And I tend to want to believe them, because I don't want to, like, live in a world where people are just stagnant,

unable to change and become better people and by the way I feel that way about these types of situations even when like when most of the time it's like not on us to accept the apology but like when we were speaking about Nick Cannon it technically was on us like he had been really um had this podcast that was very anti-semitic and I still I feel that way even when it's about me and when it's not about me like I I hate being mad at people like I really do and I don't I I feel like I used to but I really don't now see bad in people like I always feel like I want to give people the benefit of the doubt and to go on a tv show and just like after all this has happened to Ellen and so many people were talking about her and we never heard from her like she honestly I feel like she could have

slightly gotten away with doing less and she didn't so I'm just I'm not in the mood to assume people have hate in their heart you know yeah or that people aren't capable of change like that's just not what I want to believe about humanity so I choose to accept people's apologies and as far as like she could have done less I agree she could have breezed over it a little actually I don't know if she could have gotten away with that but she also could have done more like there was no one there who was interviewing her like asking her questions and specifics that's true you know it was scripted and that's actually very very true on her terms she didn't have to answer any direct questions It's actually a really good point now that I think about it.

But I'm not saying that that's what she necessarily needed to have done, like a sit-down interview. Everyone goes about it in their own way, and this is the way that she thought was best. And I thought it wasn't bad. I really didn't. Yeah, I guess I just have a hard time reconciling, like, all these things about Ellen because, like, of what else we know about her.

Just, like like her being like the first openly gay woman on television and she got that medal of honor from Obama like I don't know it's it's confusing but I think that's exactly what she's saying like she is that person like she can't go on her show every day for 17 years and act her way through a talk show like yes she's a good actress but like that's you know she's a good actress, but like that's, you know. She's not that good. Like that, at a certain point, like, you know, your mask is going to slip. Yeah. But I think she's that person. She's a good person.

She's a trailblazer. Like she fights for things that are important to her and she helps people. But she's not a saint. Right. And just like most people, like maybe she could be mean. Yeah. And yeah, I don't know how to reconcile all these things. There's so much going on in the Ellen universe.

Yeah. I just props to her for like coming back and she could have easily not and right she's so wealthy she doesn't need this show yeah she doesn't need to continue to put herself like in the arena and have people like talk and and throw and and just that's true have to defend herself but she did it she's committed to making this season the best season ever and I completely understand that feeling yeah I think that a lot of people actually don't always agree with us when we speak about like certain can't I hate to use the word cancellation but I don't know what other word to use certain cancellations because my instinct is always to

kind of kind of take the side of the person who's being questioned because I've been questioned and I know how much misinformation is being spread and I know how misunderstood I felt so my natural instinct even if it's not the right decision my natural instinct is to always like believe the apology wait and that's because there's something we don't know that's also your instinct is to believe the apology because you know what it's like to apologize and that you are sorry so yeah you believe that someone else is sorry because and I myself was yes yeah I don't know And I know that it's not always, well, it's actually not really ever the popular,

um, opinion to have. Cause I think people like really do love like a pile on. And when there's all this, all these allegations against Ellen or someone, um, it's just easy to like, to hate them.

And I totally get it, but I know what it's like to feel so misunderstood. So like part of me is always just, and I don't even like Ellen. Like that's the thing. Like I actually think she's like, to hate them. And I totally get it, but I know what it's like to feel so misunderstood. So like part of me is always just, and I don't even like Ellen. Like that's the thing. Like I actually think she's like, like I actually, I think she probably was mean, you know? But I don't know, part of me just always

instinctively takes that person's side. And it's not because I excuse poor behavior or I think that it's okay to have a toxic work environment, but it's really because like, I do believe people make mistakes and I do believe just because you're famous doesn't mean we shouldn't give you grace you know yeah and that's just my opinion no I I agree so it'll be interesting to see how everyone else reacts and I'm sure we're not in the majority no I haven't like read any like tweets or seen what people are thinking I'm sure you guys will let us know I just know how I

felt when I watched it and it was like. Kind of sad. Yeah, just okay. Let's see. Yeah, and if you don't like Ellen and you can't move past what you know about her, then don't. Yeah, then don't. It's really that simple. Right. It is a free country.

You can choose Ellen or you cannot choose Ellen. And I'm not choosing Ellen. I'm just choosing to believe that she is sorry. Yeah. Okay, let's move on because Daily Mail is reporting exclusively. Breaking news this morning. Breaking news and it's not like certified, but I feel like I don't know why Daily Mail wouldn't be getting this right. With Housewives, like they're usually right. Yeah, it's either Daily Mail or Page Six. Someone has the exclusive. Honestly,

if I saw a headline, I'd be more likely to believe it in Daily Mail than Page Six. I think so too, but they're saying that Teddy Mellencamp is to be axed from Real Housewives of Beverly Hills after three seasons after being branded as, quote, boring and stale. Teddy is being dropped from Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, a production insider reveals exclusively to DailyMail.com. The 39-year-old star joined the series in 2017 and starred in seasons 8, 9, and 10. A production insider told DailyMail.com that Teddy is, quote, boring and stale, star joined the series in 2017 and starred in series in seasons eight nine and ten a production insider told dailymail.com that teddy is quote boring and stale and the other cast members don't

particularly like don't particularly like her wow i can't speak to that she was blasted for her all in health and fitness program last week after concerns were raised by anonymous subscribers about the unhealthy and restrictive diets well i'm not sure like what if that really has a lot to do with her being fired but i think to be honest, the audience just doesn't like Teddy. Like, and I don't think they've liked her for a while. And you always have to give people, like, a grace period, the Eileen Davidson grace period, where it's like, you never know who's going to go from being disliked to universally loved. Like, Dorit Kemsley was not liked her first season.

We gave her another season, and now she's, like, a lot of people's favorites. But Teddy never had that wave turned for her. Like, I I don't mind her but people are very outspoken that they think she's boring and that they don't like her um so I could totally see a world where she would be fired I just think it's interesting that like you can come off a season of really being like integral to the storyline like she was the one really moving pieces with Lisa and with um Kyle about the Denise Brandy thing but it's crazy that you could be really at the center of the drama and like maybe still get fired I don't know I agree with uh on Lisa Vanderpump she was central to the story this season though she was in a place to be central

to the story but just like completely dropped the ball and the way that she even like got involved here and there was like not weak. Was yeah, was extremely weak and really left it to be on Rinna and then Kyle and then her. And so I kind of understand this decision. It doesn't really seem like a shock to me. I don't think there's anyone who really like love, love, loves her. And then also, I don't think there's anyone who even hates her. Like people are just indifferent.

And that I think is the worst place you could be in because at least like when you're in that villain role and people hate you like you are contributing you are interesting yeah yeah you're being spoken about but I think that like it Teddy barely made her mark this season and maybe it's because she was pregnant and just like you know wasn't getting super into it because she was busy but I guess they're not gonna give her another chance like yeah to get into it I also think like taking her out of the group really wouldn't affect the group that much and that's when you have a problem right I actually think if anything like Kyle would become a lot closer with all of the other women I think her

friendship with Teddy while it's really really nice does keep her a little bit out of like on the sidelines and she used to be really really close with Kyle and Dorit and it just kind of has taken a back seat so I think it's it's interesting and I do think that this report by the Daily Mail is very possibly true yeah so when I imagine a world of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills without Teddy Mellencamp it remains unaffected which is not good good. And that's when you know it's your time to go. Yeah. So, I don't know. She's really nice.

Yeah, she's a lovely woman. She contributed a lot to the show, and she was instrumental in the takedown of Lisa Vanderpump. But you're only as good as your last season. Yeah, it's like football. Yeah. Well, we'll see in the following days, weeks, if this ends up being true.

Yeah. Also, in regards to her all in. Oh, yeah. The drama surrounding her company. A bunch of people have spoken out just about like that the program is not super healthy. And it's very restrictive. It's very restrictive. And it's not like technically dietitian approved.

I don't know enough about diets, clearly, or this particular drama in general to speak on it. But yeah, I just would say that there's nothing that I read that went against what I thought all in was yes that's the thing it's like I actually know two people who have done it and this is exactly what I knew it was like so restrictive lots of working out texting that's like now it's like all this texting and hounding is like you know aggressive and it's coming like off as you know they're being so crazy but it's like no that's what the program advertises she's literally accountability coach like that is her strong suit is like sending you texts every day and checking on you so we could talk about

whether the program is good or bad I'm not a dietitian because we're not experts on this but what I will say is that like that's exactly what I thought the program was when she came on the season season one and then some celebrities had been on the program and that that it's a low amount of calories per day and it's a lot of checking in like that's yeah so I obviously don't know enough about diets to like form an opinion on whether I think this is healthy or not because I'm not a registered dietitian um but I've known for a while and I thought maybe everyone did that like this is what the program was And it's for people who can do it. And I literally could never. Yeah.

But I've always known that this is what it was. So maybe I'm just not surprised because I knew, and maybe not everyone knew. But again, I'm not in the mood to get into diet drama. I have so many other issues in my life that the diet world is just going to have to survive without me. And they've survived without me for a very long time. They have. Yeah.

They have. But I don't know how much longer they can go without you. I don't know. They're holding on for dear life. Okay. Next story. Very exciting casting news for Real Housewives of New York. They appear to have cast their first black cast member, Bershawn Shaw.

The Real Housewives of New York may finally start to reflect the diversity of the city. Motivational speaker Bershawn Shaw is rumored to be the next woman to hold an apple when Mahoney returns for season 13 TMZ reported on Friday. Yes I heard that they have already filmed. Oh wow. A little bit. So I really hope that this is like true and not another like Rachel Uchitel. Right no no 100% moment. I am so here for this. I just need to know you know I have a very low bar when it comes to housewives like are you rich yeah and is a motivational speaker rich I don't know I think there's a lot of potential there's a lot of money to be made in the in the space yeah it's it's a big industry a source close to production told page six that Shaw has filmed

with some of the cast but nothing is official yet so I'm sure like they're maybe seeing how it's going but she's on camera that's a fabulous fabulous step in the right direction I am so curious at the most recent um New York reunion they spoke about how when Bethany left she gave a list of 30 people and production does their research and gets lists put together I would just love to see that list like who, who is on it? Yeah. No, and it's so interesting that that's how it goes down. Like, and I guess it's because Bethany is a friend of Andy's and highly respected on the show. Because I don't think when Dorinda left, like, she left a list. No, but also when Bethany left, she left a gaping hole in the show.

And I think she wanted to do everything to, like, leave on good terms and make up for it. Yeah. And Bethany, I mean, Leah is really like a mini Bethany. she's a she's a BIT a Bethany in training yeah so it was really was a perfect replacement yes it was crazy how Dorinda got like so riled up about the way that Leah said you know Tinsley brought me out into the show and she's like it's Bethany also Bethany and Dorinda are like hanging out close right now and so and that's what Ramona like was saying in all the madness that like Bethany's in her ear, which is like disappointing for Bethany. Yeah. I totally

agree. Like you are who you associate with. Yeah. And Dorinda is unfortunately nothing of the sort. Yeah. Okay. Fifth and final story, a little good news for Lala Kent and Randall Emmett, who have revealed the sex of their first child. And it's a girl. So sweet. I mean, she like showed up to her gender reveal wearing biker shorts and looking so snatched. And I just love Lala and Randall. Randall also looks like he's lost a ton of weight. He looked so like happy and healthy.

And I forget that he has two other kids. So it's like not as big of a deal. But for Lala, this is like huge. And he has two daughters. So they're just going to gonna be like he's such a girl dad yeah it's I I really like them like it's so it's so funny like where we've come when it comes to Lala and Randall like when she was driving the Range Rover and like everyone was like who paid for it and there was like a bunch of rumors online that it was like an NFL player um and now we're here they're like you know getting married and having children and it's just it's really crazy how much Vanderpump Rules has changed in the last year. Yeah. Six

months. Yep. Two of the castmates are pregnant. Four of them have been fired. Like, it's just crazy. It's crazy. I'm really happy for Lala. It's such an exciting time. And I'm just really curious to see what the future of the show is. Yeah. I don't think we're going to get an answer on that for a while. And I don't really care. Yeah, me neither. I don't care about anything this morning. Like, just, I'm just not in the mood to care. Yeah.

And you know what it is? It's like, whenever I come up with, like, a really strong opinion, which is never, like, whenever I come out with, like, a strong opinion, like, people yell at me that they don't like my opinion. Like, I can't take that. So I just, my opinion from here on out is I just don't care unless it directly affects me. Right.

But also, maybe it's, like, because we're in, like, the 10 days between Roshan and you and Kipper, just my opinion from here on out is I just don't care unless it directly affects me right but also maybe it's like because we're in like the 10 days between Roshan and you I'm kidding you're just like trying not to care about anything too much because then you might say something like out of turn with all your passion maybe maybe you know I have so much passion yeah you really do um okay so let's dive into our tv recap we're going to be recapping Real Housewives of Potomac which is of course brought to you by stamps.com as we slowly adjust to a new normal we still need to be smart about how we do business luckily there's stamps.com to make things easier is of course brought to you by Stamps.com.

And let's dive into Potomac Recap. Let's. Finally, we get to the episode of the homepage. Thank you, stamps.com, for sponsoring today's episode. And let's dive into Potomac Recap. Let's. Finally, we get to the episode. Something happened. We didn't get the actual meat of the fight, but I felt satiated with the Michael and Ashley stuff. And we got the buildup of the fight, so we know why there is going to be a physical altercation.

And so we're feeling like we can take a side? Well, I love Monique, and I don't like Candace, so I'm inclined to take Monique's side, but it is my understanding that, I'm inclined to take Monique's side, but it's my understanding that Monique is the one who took it. Who put hands on first. Who put hands on first and that's kind of unacceptable,

even if someone is like provoking you, but drag me, Monique, you know, like I get it, but that takes it to a whole other level. And if I'm being really honest, like Monique was fake sleeping. Like you, you can't convince me. Yeah. Oh, I really didn't think so. Cause that's just like such a weird thing to do. She had been complaining like the entire weekend that she was so tired. She'd been working so, so hard on this weekend. I think it's a very strange way to fall asleep with your legs up and your hands closed on your belly. Like, I just don't know people sleep like that. I don't, I feel like maybe if she was faking, she would have put her head, like tucked her

head away to look like more dead, you know? No, it was just like, first of all, also now that I'm thinking about it, she was laying on her back with her legs up, which first of all, it's very hard to fall asleep with your legs up. Also her hands were clenched, which is also just like a weird way to fall asleep. And then her neck and her posture were so perfectly up when like to fall asleep with your legs up. Also, her hands were clenched, which is also just like a weird way to fall asleep. And then her neck and her posture were so perfectly up. When you fall asleep, you're actually your head kind of tilts to the side. I've never been more sure that she was not asleep. I think she was asleep.

I didn't give it like too much thought. I just assumed that she was asleep. But now that I'm thinking about it, like I really do think she was asleep because she had Candace in her home like and her husband. All of this just to like skip out on saying goodbye to her. Yeah. I mean, she said goodbye to everyone except for Candace in her home, like, and her husband. All of this just to, like, skip out on saying goodbye to her? Yeah, I mean, she said goodbye to everyone except for Candace. And they had literally had a fight the night before at the fire pit. So I just, and by the way, I thought it was funny.

I didn't think it was a big deal. But, like, she was totally fake sleeping. I did not think that she was. But, okay. 100%. 100%. But also, even if she was, and because she didn't want to, like, have to be awkward and say goodbye. Like, that's fine by me. No, by for sure it's fucking hilarious like when I was watching

it I knew she was faking and I thought it was so funny also when Candace was like you were fake sleeping and Monique was like what I mean maybe Monique is a good actress but like she looked genuinely like she did not know what Candace was talking oh I disagree I thought she looked very defensive person wouldn't have known that like Cand, Candice tried to say bye. Barely. No, I really thought that she got overly defensive because she was totally fake sleeping. But regardless of who's right, and, like, to me, and I'm not 100% sure, but Candice on Watched Robbins Live said that Monique was the one to escalate it to, like, a physical thing. To me, even though I love Monique, like, you automatically lose when you put hands on another person. Unless they're literally out here saying the most vile.

It was a dumb fight. I have to see it. It was a dumb fight, but Candace was being so annoying. She's just so annoying. Doesn't mean you can put your hands on someone. I have to see if it's like Candace has her hands in her face, and then Monique... Monique flips her hair a few times, and then it gets... I have to see it. Monique flips her hair a few times and then it gets.

I have to see it. But I agree. If Monique made it physical first, she is in the wrong. And by the way, I don't like Candace. Like I can't stress that enough. Like even this episode, her storyline is now about music. Like I can't. It's just so uninteresting.

Like last season when Monique was like, I'll drag you pregnant and all. And now it's like, drag me Monique. Like Monique kind of has to live up to the fact that she's going to drag Candace. Like, if she backs down, not, I'm not condoning violence. Sounds like you are. No, but it's like, if she backs down, it's like she talks a big talk, but like, she wouldn't walk the walk. No, but honestly, like, to me, I lose respect for Monique

when she takes it to that place. Like, she is this, like, refined, fabulous woman fabulous woman and that's not what refined fabulous people do I agree but if she didn't drag her when she said she was gonna drag her then she she was she well that can't be taken seriously that was a question on Watch What Happens Live last night with Candace being like do you think you provoked provoked her by repeatedly saying drag me Monique drag me and Candace is like like I guess yeah but like she fucking put her hands on me and I have to I have to agree with Candace like it's unacceptable and it's painful for me to say I love Monique yeah but you can't I have to touch someone I have to see the whole thing because also they put the screen like really small with the watch what happens live stream which was a fucking weird thing to do when it's

like the pinnacle of the episode so i really i couldn't get a good enough like slow-mo play-by-play of what was going on which is what i'm gonna need to judge this situation they have to stop doing that now like with watch what happens live from home they've started to make the the screen smaller so you could see like the michael rapaport getting to his chair yeah it's so annoying yeah so even though michael rapappaport actually had some very good insights on Beverly Hills. He always has great opinions. He actually said what we said. He said,

the question was, were you surprised that Denise didn't return for the season? He's like, no. And honestly, like I blame Lisa Rinna. She just bullied Denise

this whole season. It's not even about what's true or not. It's just about the fact that they were friends. Yeah. So I'm like, finally someone says

what I agree with. What else did he say? They played this game like quote the Housewives and he's like a Housewives, and he's, like, a Housewives historian, and he did not know any. It was actually so disappointing. Did he like Candace? Whose side was he on in Potomac?

They didn't do a lot of Potomac talk, actually. They asked Candace just, like, about the fight and a lot about Ashley's marriage, because it's so weird how now, in real life, Ashley and Michael are expecting another baby, whereas in this episode, they're actually talking about maybe not getting back together but Ashley kind of opened a can of worms by saying our marriage has had its own identity for a while like it seems like they've had this open thing like yeah I was so impressed with Ashley like she just does not hold back she's really an incredible housewife because she has an interesting personal life she doesn't pretend to be something that she's not you know obviously there was no way of getting around this situation and pretending like

it didn't exist but some housewives might have tried you know oh 100% and not had this particular conversation on camera but she like bounced into the wine tasting and was just ready to share with her friends I totally agree I actually had so much respect for her I thought the fact that they had that conversation on camera was like actually admirable. And I liked when he said cut and then they spoke to the producer and he was like, I have nothing more. The producer was cute. The producer was cute. But, and he was like, and I, at first I was like, what are you doing cutting in the middle of your scene? And he was like, I have nothing more to say. We talked about it. Okay. Like we said what we said, please let us have dinner. And the production guy was actually really understanding.

Yeah. Like we got it. Like it was just so interesting and it just makes me feel like that's how scenes are filmed like yeah let's go to dinner we'll talk about what we have to talk about and then we're gonna cut in and enjoy our meal yeah so it was just actually a crazy episode and I feel like we've all had this like sneaking suspicion that Ashley and Michael definitely have some sort of arrangement and absolutely no judgment but with all the things that we know about them so far, it actually made sense when she said like, it's kind of open in the sense like maybe she has to be there with another girl. But there was something there.

And Michael obviously took it too far. And I just couldn't believe that she opened up that much about the actual casino situation and then like the identity of her marriage. Yeah. It was admirable. It was. It was extremely admirable. I don't judge.

No, I don't judge either. I think the women are glad that she's talking to them about it. It was admirable. It was. It was extremely admirable. I don't judge. No, I don't judge either. I think the women are glad that she's talking to them about it. And I think she handled it in the best way possible. And last week I said, like, how is Michael going to get himself out of this situation to the point where he's expecting another child? And I actually see how, like, it's not that he got himself out of anything. It's like she has chosen to give him a chance just because she's chosen that. Ashley's a lot younger than Michael and it's very possible she just like

wants to have kids and it's not really so much about Michael anymore but she just wants kids and I can respect that. Yeah I respect her a lot and me too it's crazy how like the episode was so major but it's not even like a she just I feel like the more you talk about something the worse it gets that's what Erika Jayne says but also like the more you talk about something. The worse it gets. That's what Erika Jayne says. But also like the more you talk about something, the quicker it ends. Well, yeah. Because look at Denise. She didn't talk about it for so long and it became so big because she like refused.

Actually, maybe the rules are just different in Beverly Hills and Potomac. Because I felt that Denise talked about it every single time she showed up. And by time eight, she was like, I'm done talking about this. Maybe, yeah. But in Potomac, if you address something, the ladies will let you live. Yeah, they're very reasonable over in Maryland. Yeah. Very reasonable.

So I thought it was a good episode. I loved everyone's. Oh, it was the first time, like maybe this whole season, that everyone looked dressed appropriately for a gathering. Yes, oh my God, they looked fabulous. Ashley looked fabulous. Karen Huger looked fabulous. Everyone looked amazing.

Agreed 100%. And they looked cohesive, and they looked like they were all going to the same place. I agree. Ten points for Gryffindor. It was a good episode and the rest of the fight is next week which is really what the whole season is basically like centered around and it's the climax of it all so that'll be really exciting. We have oh no New York and Beverly Hills are over. No we have one more New York. Oh so Thursday New York and is that it? When is OC? October 7th. I guess that's like next week okay crazy times crazy we got a week off you guys we're gonna transition housewives talk

we're in a transition period we are very exciting I mean these are the best franchises so it's less exciting but well I was actually thinking about how coronavirus um impacted the housewife schedule in general and to be to be fair like the best franchises were protected Potomac New York and Beverly Hills and the ones that are a little you know lacking recently OC and Jersey um when does Atlanta premiere I don't know and Dallas they're filming now I think oh but Dallas is like everything is fine in Dallas yeah actually I don't know but no but they're filming like they had like someone through a Dallas themed party like the show yeah like Stephanie and Cameron were posting and like it looks like it's and you know there's actually like so much going on um like with Portia and

just like in the black community I'll actually be really interested to see how they tackle it on Atlanta Housewives because how can they not yeah so there's a lot to look forward to it's never been a better time to be a Bravo fan. Very true. Also, I caught up on Love Island. Everything except last night's episode. So now I finally like have allegiances and thoughts. Where do your allegiances lie?

This is where my allegiances lie. Because it's been a long journey. And then also I went to Twitter after to hear what everyone's thoughts were. And it was like so interesting. Because everyone's like so hard on Johnny. like by the end of the um by the end of all the episodes like I'm so done with him like I think he's so manipulative towards Selly and like the way that he was making her like go and tell Benny there's so many people on the show it's so hard to remember like all the new people. Selly, Benny? Selly, there's literally three guys came in it's

Benny, Bennett, and Noah. Oh God. But it's, the whole thing is so crazy because pretty much like Selly and Johnny have been like the OG, like best couple, so cute. And then they did this thing where they sent the five guys to one house and brought in five new girls. And the girls stayed in the house and they brought in five new guys. And Selly and Johnny were like the most legit couple like not gonna be tempted by someone else but like johnny was like hooking up with this

other girl like really going at it and because everything airs on tv like pretty much that night now that these new three new guys ben benny and benny came in they saw what johnny did at the other house whereas the other guys who just like heard about it because johnny told them but like they saw it on tv like the cameras in the bed with the sheet over the head so like finally Sally is like hearing what really happened and I think she does have to end things with him because something just like went awry even though I actually really like them um there's nothing cuter than like Sally and Justine's friendship like also Justine like talks in just tiktok sounds oh I feel everything that. Everything it's

like it's the eyes for me. Deb! No it's really so so cute. That's so funny. And their friendship is so cute and I want to talk about Mackenzie really quickly because she just got spoiler alert sent home and it took me a while to figure out how I felt about her in the beginning. I found that she was so annoying and needy and like just not helping herself in any way shape or form but by the end like I really was so impressed by her and like everyone in the house was working against her it's like when the boy she was with this guy Connor and and everyone hated their relationship because they were kind they were like a little toxic because like she was needy and he like wasn't kind of wanted to explore other things but like he wouldn't tell that

straight to her so he would like talk to other girls but like she didn't know that he was feeling this way and like he was really like gaslighting her but he's a nice guy he's an accountant like he should be in tax day does he work at ernst and young but he just like i guess was not feeling confident enough to have these tough conversations right so when they went to the different houses all the guys were encouraging him to be with someone else to like make a new connection and when she was in her new house this guy came in and they just connected immediately and all the girls were like you're you're you're a whole new Mackenzie like you're so like fun and we love being around you and this is like such a better relationship meanwhile the guys were telling Connor to get a new relationship right when they

both came back like she came back with the guy that she was with like she just was like this is a better connection for me and Connor came back alone bye and the guys were like going so hard at Mackenzie that what she did was like so horrible like America's gonna turn on her and like America was like actually yeah no like she I actually was so surprised and impressed by her that like she would even look at anyone else right and be open to that and not so like crazy about Connor when she knows it's not like the best relationship for her and so and then it turned out that the guy that she did bring in like literally right after he was safe on the island. Like he started like he was done with her and was so mean to her. And literally was like using her worst insecurities against her.

Pretty much like saying that he saw the show before he came on. Because like they get to watch a show. And like the way that she was acting was so crazy. And like he wants no part of that. And like he felt like she was starting to like be that girl again. And so he was like done. And she didn't even sit around and talk. She was like that was so nasty and like he wants no part of that. Ew. And like he felt like she was starting to like be that girl again and so he was like done and she and she didn't even sit around and talk she was like that was so nasty like goodbye good day sir. I said good day. So she wound up like and then there was a moment where she might have gone back together with Connor and like I

actually would have been really happy to see it but no instead she went home and I feel like she really went out like in a strong way having had like a really rough time. And like it was just really sad because it felt like everybody in the house was like working against her. And like telling Connor he deserved better. But like when she tried to go and find better like she was the bad guy. And so it was just it was tough. It was sad to see her go. But it is what it is.

It's such a crazy show. I just think the turnaround time is so impressive and I think it's a really, really good model and like formula for a reality show. Yeah, it really, really is. I think that who's going to win the whole show, I think that Justine and Caleb are the cutest couple and I think that they're going to win.

I hope that everything stays as good as it is right now. How about Twogger? I don't know. You never know with these things. Right, I feel like it's been on for a while. Well that's because it's on every day. Yeah so it's just it's it's really good I finally 20 episodes later like I have some skin in the game. Right that's exciting. Yeah I hope I wonder if you guys are watching I heard there was a toaster on Faith. What was she like the first to go home? No no no she came in when the five guys went to the new house she was one of the five girls brought in and she didn't make it back to the

old house. Like no one like brought her with them but she seemed really cool and I was like proud to be a toaster. Love to see it. Yeah. That's our show. Anything else we want to talk about before we wrap up? No I think that's all she wrote.
