Good morning, Millennials! Welcome back to the Morning Toast. Happy Monday. It is a nasty,
misty, and gloomy Monday here in New York, but our spirits cannot be broken.
Our spirits are high considering the atmosphere is low. My spirit is high because Dr. Fucheman
is here, and usually he doesn't come in on a rainy day because he doesn't fuck with the rain,
like that beautiful coat of hair. It special it will not do but he is
here therefore i am cheered the love of my life is here and i really brought him for you i find it
it's so difficult to like get theo out and about in the rain because he just gets wet and he's like
a mop and he's all soppy but if i may he can make it through the rain he can stand up once again yeah on his own and he knows that he's lipstick
on auntie's teeth yeah sorry i was trying not to embarrass you but giving you like a little
tongue on the teeth it's okay i just finished mariah carey's memoir so i've just been in mariah
carey's canon got it and I have a newfound appreciation for that
song and everything Mariah the book is amazing five stars out of five uh so so good so powerful
never been done before never to be done again mixed up in a blender just really birth to it
like her story is so interesting obviously she's an interesting woman but the way it's told it's
like she is in on every single piece of her life.
Yeah.
There were so many interesting pop culture tidbits.
The stories behind so many of her songs.
She writes and produces every single one of her songs.
Yeah.
That's not something that's a given from your 90s pop star.
From really any pop star these days, it's actually shocking how many of them have nothing
to do with the songwriting process, but their name is on the list of songwriters because they were like in the building
yeah no she's so dedicated to the craft always has been always will be and I thought it was an
amazing story and so if you love a celebrity memoir which we all do aces is that what you
spent most of your weekend doing that's what I spent Saturday doing. I finished it Saturday. Then Saturday night we had our let's go
GNO. Let's go. Cause it's a girl's night. It's all right. We had a girl's night. It was slightly
derailed. We really don't want to get into it. We don't want to get into like why it was derailed.
Here's the bottom line. We had an amazing night. like the energy was there the girls had their night out
um but there were some derailments you know due to like the fact that it's hard to get stuff done
these days you know we're just living in unprecedented times and it was an unprecedented
evening and what Jackie and I don't want to do is like come on here and like trash you know an
institution like drag a restaurant that's not what we're gonna do we're not gonna do that and we're still not gonna do it no 100 it goes against everything we believe
in i would never but i just really want to yeah but we won't but we're not going to but we won't
um so but the rest of the night was like so much fun it's been so long since we've had like
the band back together the band back together an energetic night out like that so yesterday i was
obviously down for the count but strangely i didn't I didn't hear from you and I was just assuming you were dead so
strangely I wasn't dead like I actually didn't have a headache all day but mentally physically
emotionally spiritually eggs housed in like couldn't think couldn't speak couldn't move so
I was just in bed all day um well I didn't hear hear, I didn't hear from you. And it was like five o'clock and I FaceTimed Zach.
And I'm like, is your wife alive? Cause like, I didn't hear from you all day. I'm like,
I dropped you off, but like, did you ever make it upstairs? And he was like, she's asleep.
Yes. So, um, I was, you know, milling about around two o'clock. I put on the movie clouds.
Oh, I was watching the movie clouds from two o'clock to 9 o'clock. Because I, at 2.30, fell asleep for three hours.
That's probably when you called.
And then I got up, made dinner.
Zach and I watched SNL.
What did you make?
So I made this fiber gourmet mac and cheese.
Never mind.
But it was mac and cheese.
It was actually pretty good.
And not super caloric.
But it was like I was having a cheat day.
But not the worst it could have been.
Within reason.
Within reason, right.
Watched SNL. Showered. Took a bath a bath finally made it back to clouds to finish the movie and the end
was actually good okay good um but it took forever yeah no I um I watched SNL as well we're gonna
recap it tv recap we also have Potomac to recap today um anything else you watched um any cus for the group any what content uppers uh no i actually
oh yes i watched so much jeopardy literally me and ben started um keeping score of how many
answers we got right per episode and i beat on set on saturday i beat my highest record from
friday i got 21 answers right in one episode of Jeopardy isn't that good mm-hmm yeah so I'm just feeling really proud of myself and
starting this week I'm gonna try again and try again and implement the seven o'clock Jeopardy
game into my everyday routine but we'll see if I remember because like I said seven o'clock is an
important time for me thinking about dinner I'm thinking about bed like I just don't know if I
can fit Jeopardy into my schedule but I'm gonna try yeah I think that would be a good thing for
your inner
peace sometimes like it's not the most convenient thing but it's you've got to make make choices and
you've just got to make it work life is about choices it truly is um but this show is gonna
be great today yes and we actually have a really exciting week ending the week with
Toasterween 2020 I'm getting really excited my wig came in the mail today for Toast Halloween and
actually don't think it's the right color but thank god I planned early I can get another one.
I'm very excited. I think that I've been seeing what people think we're going to do and
upon coming up with ideas those suggestions definitely were part of what we were already
thinking but I don't know if anyone's going to guess what we're doing. Yeah and I'm really
really excited now that we finally like cemented our idea, agreed, everything's been ordered.
Now I'm so excited.
Me too.
Because you know what?
I don't want to overhype it though because we have a tendency.
And you know what?
We're now going three years in a row with like unbelievable Halloweens.
And after every year, we're like, this probably will be the one that's like not the best
because we just keep outdoing ourselves.
We really do.
And it's like, maybe this is the year where like we don't outdo ourselves you know maybe but you
know what's crazy about toaster ween like it's really improv comedy like yes and that's why we
can't just we can't know if it's going to be good because it's not about the costumes like even when
we were kim and courtney like people dress up as the kardashians it's like not that it's like a
basic idea not a great costume in general but it's what we do with it on the show
and like how the personalities like influence the show.
And so it's really improv sketch comedy.
Like I feel like I could be on SNL, honestly.
So how would you rank our past three costumes and performances?
Okay, shit.
That's really hard.
I think I would do you and me dressing as each other as number one.
Yeah. Second place. And in second second place it would be Jonas Brothers I think so too and then Kardashians
and also because of that Jonas Brothers video of us dancing like that even if the episode stunk
which it didn't that made the toast a ween but see I why I think the Jonas Brothers um episode
was the best is because of the improv like I remembered it and I remember like that video and I remember like we looked funny.
But when I actually watched us in character as Nick, Joe and Kevin, like it was hysterical.
Like not to toot our own horn, but like true sketch comedy at its finest.
And we take sketch comedy very seriously here.
So it's just something we could add to our resume.
Yeah.
Improv.
Improv comedian.
It's like we went to Second City.
Yeah.
No, that's good for me because like you're a stand-up comedian.
But like I can genuinely say I do improv.
No, you 100%.
You do improv annually.
I do improv once a year.
Yeah.
She's an annual improv artist.
She's really honing her craft.
Thank you.
So I think if it's okay with you.
You think so?
Do you have anything else you want to recap from the weekend that you did or enjoyed or
played or ate?
No, I think that's really everything so I guess then that would make it that it would be
time right so I guess it is time for the past five stories that you need to know before you
wake up and take a bite out of your morning toast now I am genuinely thrilled about today's um
sponsor because it is the most us sponsor ever. We got a huge box of products from them
last week and I've been using them religiously. You guys, if it's a sponsor, I think it is,
you're going to want to keep your ears up and your mouth open. We are literally embracing,
you know, our roots, the morning breath. Today's sponsor is TheraBreath, the world's fastest
growing oral healthcare solution for one simple reason. Our products are powered and tested by science, not gimmicky marketing, and they have
powerful masking flavors. So literally they have chewing gum, mouthwash, mints. They have a million
things. And the sole goal of this company is to like help your oral health and specifically your
breath. Combat bad breath. So I not only suffer from just awful breath, like at all times, I have a very
sensitive nose and like, I could not be within a foot of Ben if his breath even remotely smells
like anything unpleasant. So it honestly has been like very trying for our relationship.
And I brought home the gum and we've been chewing it like literally nonstop. Ben uses mouthwash.
And now I gave him the TheraBreath mouthwash, which is for your oral health. And it's just, it's so vastly improved our lives.
And I just, I could sing about TheraBreath all day.
That's so funny because ever since I met Zach, he's been using the TheraBreath mints and
they are so powerful.
Like anytime you ask like Zach, if he has a mint, he'll give you one of these TheraBreath
ones and they're powerful.
Like bad breath.
And now that I started keto last week week I've been like really nervous about
my keto breath because it's like on another level and so I've started using the TheraBreath
mouthwash yeah sometimes like if I breathe on you it's literally like my organs are decaying and
like what is that smell ew okay but the TheraBreath mouthwash is so I've started implementing it in
my daily life and it is combating keto breath one whiff at a time. And I'm about to blow your mind. Okay, I'm ready. Do you know that every TheraBreath product is certified kosher,
vegan and gluten-free? So their products aren't just effective, they're clean and ethical too.
None of their oral rinses are tested on animals and they're all made in the USA with the most
ethically sourced ingredients. They're so confident in their products that each and
every one is backed up by their 100% money back guarantee. So if you don't like them for any
reason, simply contact them for a full refund. It's just really like the most
fabulous product out there. And I think I say that with absolute certainty. And all their TheraBreath
Fresh Breath Oral Rinses are 100% alcohol free and they have no burn. Again, that's also kosher,
vegan, and gluten free. Their mouthwash comes in three delicious flavors gentle mild mint it's
perfect for sensitive mouths me too sometimes i really can't use like spicy mouthwashes it makes
my mouth really hurt they have invigorating icy mint which has a blast of spearmint freshness
to kickstart your morning and then exotic rainforest mint is flavored with essential
bergamot oils for a taste like unlike anything else on the market be sure to send people to

pow pow pow that breath okay our first story is really the big news of the
weekend Kanye West on Joe Rogan a three-hour interview which is a lot but most of Joe Rogan's
interviews are between three hours so I was not I would have been surprised if it was anything less
than three hours because we know that Kanye um is very verbose so like why would it have been any
shorter right no it honestly could have been.
I mean, I watched 30 minutes and it felt like three hours.
I watched about an hour and 15 minutes on Saturday.
I was supposed to watch the rest yesterday, but then obviously my plans change.
I will be watching the rest, but it's just, it's incredibly interesting.
I mean, I've, I've listened to a few episodes of Joe Rogan, like from start to finish, and
I love them because he does video also.
And I can't say that I would be able to like watch the whole thing if it wasn't video and that's why I love
the morning toast because we do video also and like check us out youtube.com slash morning toast
if I were a toaster like I would watch this video every single day and like that's how I feel about
Joe Rogan when his guest is someone who I'm deeply interested in yeah so I actually I am deeply
interested in Kanye um but I this episode was just for me it was not it like I
could not follow anything Joe Rogan literally said I watched the first 30 minutes and it was
literally the same question from the it was the first question Joe Rogan asked like Kanye just
kept being like I don't want to go down a rabbit hole and then proceeded to go down a rabbit hole
and he was just so all over the place and there was a lot that I wanted to hear
him discuss and maybe he gets to it in the third in the third hour but I just am not gonna make it
I mean the question was about like why God put it on his heart to run for president and then he
somehow ended up talking about engineering monasteries that are eco-friendly like I
literally had no idea what he was talking about it was so messy sounds related okay no it's how
is that related you watch the first
30 minutes and I will say the first 30 minutes were not the most interesting but like it is a
three-hour episode so it's not fair to judge it based on that second of all as Joe Rogan eventually
distills when Kanye answers a question and like is responding to something he looks at it from
like it's not just like a two-dimensional question. It's like for him, five, six dimensional. And like, he's looking at it from all these
different perspectives and he goes down all these rabbit holes, like not because he's messy or all
over the place, but because that's just the way that his brain works. And ultimately like,
it's amazing, like what he lands on and some of the ideas that he has like are amazing.
I don't know. I'm not seeing it in the way that you're seeing it. Maybe either like you're looking too much into it
or I'm not looking enough into it.
Maybe it's somewhere in the middle.
I just, I was not impressed.
And you know, my bar is so low for like the Kardashians.
Like they fart and I'm like, that was amazing.
And I truly just got so lost.
And then he was just making weird analogies
about the music industry and the me too movement
and it was borderline offensive and i just i couldn't get with it and that's very rare for me
because you know i'm such a supporter of the kardashian crew oh i i think it just takes like
patience which which you do i have a lot of things i have a ton of things i do not have no it's not
snackable it's not bite-sized it's not even quotable because because the quote like the first half of the quote and the last half of the quote are 30 minutes
apart you know because everything else is like where his mind went during the tangent but from
what I saw I thought it was extremely interesting there's a lot that he talks about that like
doesn't necessarily register not or like speak to me but there's so much that he says that just like he can just like
distill down a thought like to its roots and I just think so much of it was was brilliant okay
I don't know if I would say the word brilliant but I really appreciate your optimism and your
your hope for him it's beautiful no I don't need like he's good he doesn't need my hope like
and what I always now what I now do because I feel like in the past Kanye interviews I've just kind of been like oh
Kanye but then you go back and watch them and it's like no no everything he said six years ago
joggers is true look at look around look what every single person is wearing like if I had to
say what the what happened joggers that's what happened oh 100 and so when he said it he sounded
crazy but like it now like now if you listen to everything he says
through the lens of like one day, this might be true.
Like, it's really interesting.
And when he said the part about like,
one of his goals is to have like a stadium sized church
where it's like the people in the stands
are gospel singers, trained gospel singers.
And you'll have like 100,000 people like just oh that's cool like singing gospel music and what that would do for one soul
i was just like i never heard of an idea like that before sounds like a no fucking brainer
and sounds beautiful kanye that's beautiful yeah yeah no don't get me wrong there definitely were
like bits in there that were like gems but as it as a viewer looking for entertainment it was very
difficult to follow I I can understand why it might not be for everyone yeah definitely not I
think there was a lot in there and I look forward to the second half and I I don't want to read any
article to me the news is like Kanye went on Joe Rogan Kanye has respect for the podcasting industry
Joe Rogan does it yet again yes the headline to me I don't want to do like 10 bombshells from
Kanye's interview that so-and-so thought was interesting because that's probably
not the part that i'm going to find interesting that's true you know yeah so that's that on that
if you listen to it let us know your thoughts are you a jackie or are you a claudia i do think that
most people are going to side with me on this one but i think like the ones who side with me even
though like there might only be a handful of us like we see each other and you know what like i
just feel like i'm really like nailing these popular opinions this week.
Like between Claire and now this Kanye thing,
I feel like I'm really a speaker for the people.
I'm a speaker of the house.
Yeah, you're speaking for the people.
But like I like speaking for two people.
By the way, I know that you like speaking for like the most unpopular opinion.
Like I know that about you.
It's what makes you great.
But just know that we
know that like you just say stuff for the sake of saying it yeah you just gotta get it out of course
but I don't I don't know that this is unpopular actually I'm curious I want to go to his YouTube
quickly and see how many views the video has so far like compared to other Joe Rogan things I mean
I'm sure it's very high performing I don't know. When does YouTube count the view?
Oh, I don't know.
Right now it's at 6 million views.
And I was about to guess around 3 or 4 million.
That's where like big, like, that's where a big guest would be like around now.
I mean, but it also just came out.
It's only been two days.
Also came out on a Saturday.
Like, that's crazy.
Yeah.
I was literally like sitting at my YouTube, like waiting.
It was a few minutes late, honestly, on my YouTube.
I think it was just my app is slow. It was because I actually watched it like at 1 o'clock. It was a few minutes late, honestly, on my YouTube.
I think it was just my app is slow.
It was because I actually watched it like at one o'clock.
I was waiting for it too.
Like, wow, we have no life.
I was waiting for it too.
And it was out immediately.
It happened to drop at the perfect time.
Like for my schedule.
Yeah. Maybe that's why he did it.
Yeah, perhaps.
So anyways, check it out.
Let us know your thoughts.
Yeah.
I imagine listening as a podcast is even more like confusing.
Yeah.
Because it's already like an interview that's difficult to follow. If you, you know. Jack, if you could
admit it was difficult to follow. I was following. Like, no, and no, I'll say what is frustrating is,
like, sometimes Kanye is about to make a point, and I'm like, yes, yes, yes, and then he goes on
that tangent. I'm like, wait, wait, what were you going to say? Right. Like, that, can we just. I
think that actually is the definition of difficult to follow. So you could just admit that.
Sure, sure. Next story, little happy news. Hilary Duff and Matthew Coma celebrate their daughter's
second birthday after announcing some pregnancy news for the family. Very exciting. This is her
third kid? Their third child. Matthew Coma.oma I know that's why I hadn't realized
until I read the headline where this story was about to go because I always thought we were just
talking about Hilary Duff but then Matthew Koma of it all you know it's like you would think that
between the two like Hilary's obviously the star of the relationship but on this show according to
the toast we support the undertalk can you explain okay you told me about the Matthew Koma saga and
I legitimately forgot but I just know it has something to do with Zedd. From what I remember, we started to make Matthew Koma a verb
because if you got Matthew Koma, it meant your work was stolen by Zedd.
I guess they were partners, and Matthew Koma did a lot of the...
Producing?
Yeah, stuff on the back end, and Zedd obviously got the credit for it,
and then some way, somehow, Zedd took all the credit, and the credit and Matthew got coma. Like they were a duo or something. Yeah and he got coma'd and that's just like not
where you want to be. Got it and what's another example you would think of someone getting coma'd?
Oh my god I just thought of one um but I don't want to. You don't want to insult anyone? Yeah.
Okay um wait no but I could. When you do a group project like you can get coma like in school yeah I could think of another one of the
two people working together I don't know you put me on the spot okay sorry sorry but I just wanted
to remember where we have so many like weird phrases that sometimes it's hard to remember
like the origins of one yeah and you know what I'm like I would have completely forgotten about
that story if like it wasn't a verb because when I just read Matthew Coleman I was like
who's getting robbed right right but happy for Hilary Duff like so
happy for her she's you know what they say like you never know what goes on behind closed doors
but I feel like she has a pretty great life yeah no I think she has a normal life I think that's
what all you can hope for as a celebrity I feel like this week I've watched like many in-depth
celebrity interviews due to like Dave Letterman and the Joe Rogan thing and yeah and I'm realizing these um similarities and common themes in all of them which is like
you know just trying to have like this normal life striving for normalcy and so when I think
when a celebrity has something that resembles normalcy like that to them is just you know
bliss yeah Claudia that's beautiful I agree Hilary Duff is definitely one of those people
like she lives in New York and I feel like when you live in New York like you're really trying to be low-key. Yeah. Not a
lot of celebrities live in New York. No and certainly not anymore. That was part of Mariah's
book. Her penthouse. Does she still have it? I think that she does but I don't feel like she
lives in New York that much. No. She's such a diva. Like she needs to sprawl. Yeah. But she
definitely loves you know the occasional evening in Manhattan.
Of course.
Of course.
Dinner at, you know, the most fabulous restaurant in town
and then back to the penthouse for a little late night jacuzzi dip.
Yeah.
But she definitely lives in, like, a ranch.
I need to go watch her MTV Cribs again
now that I, like, know some of the more intricate details of the room.
Yes, I think that's a good idea.
Speaking of Bebet news,
Love is Blind star Mark Quavas and girlfriend Aubrey Rainey
are expecting their first child.
So typically, like, I don't know if like, you know.
This would be a story.
Like if last year's reality TV news would translate to this year.
Right.
Even though it was this year,
that's how fucking long this year has been.
We know.
Love is Blind was not in 2020. Yes, it was like in february it was like right
before it was right before no i said you know what was also in 2020 it's gonna blow your mind
what megs it i know because someone just tagged me in an instagram story we do um but mark of
jessica and mark you know a formative character in the show. He's, by the way, 24 years old.
Is going to be a dad.
Him and his girlfriend are expecting their first child in April 2021.
Quote, we found out together after a weekend spent with friends and family in West Virginia
for Labor Day weekend.
So, I mean, everyone's like, how's Jessica?
Where's Jessica?
She's 35.
Jessica's probably doing great.
Fantastic.
She never liked him to begin with.
Right.
So the thing is with Mark Anthony Cuervas is I don't
know who he is you know because on the show to me he was like kind of pathetic in the sense that he
was like so young but so badly wanted to settle down and like having kids is like a dream for him
so I don't know if like that's who he really is or the thirst monster he became afterwards like
sliding into girls dms just like hearing shady things about him like is that who he is because
the former that I described would be overjoyed to be having a kid at 25 young for a man yeah but if he's the thirst
monster like I just don't know who the real mark is yes I agree with that because I feel like what
we saw on the show was not who he seemed to be afterwards on social media but I feel like that's
always the case yeah and but what has stayed with me is like the man from the show with a little thirst in him.
Yeah.
I mean, it's just, it's so, it's natural.
Yeah.
And I feel like thirsty has become a derogatory word when I think it's just a natural state of being.
I think it's a synonym for hardworking.
That is so brilliant and so true.
And like, why is it admirable to be hard working but it's like
derogatory to be thirsty I think thirsty is like a good thing if I may just please what I imagine
where the connotations come from like hard working like implies hard work whereas like
thirstiness implies like social climbing it's social climbing and like a desperation to get
where you're going as opposed to like a commitment. No, that tracks. Like I'm definitely desperate to go anywhere.
Yeah.
But desperation and ambitious also.
Another example of society putting us down.
Yeah.
Always.
Always.
Next story.
Speaking of celebrity memoirs today, Fifth Harmony's Ally Brooke fears she'll die a virgin.
Her memoir.
That's a dramatic headline.
Yeah. No, I know. When memoir. That's a dramatic headline. Yeah.
No, I know.
When I read it, I was like,
her memoir, Finding Your Harmony is out now.
And oh, I think I would buy that.
She made headlines when she revealed
that she's at 27, still a virgin.
But she exclusively told Page Six
that there have been temptations.
I mean, it is a difficult road,
especially being a young woman
in the entertainment business.
You're surrounded by attractive people.
I stopped the temptation by killing the mood it's like seeing a nice purse
in the mall you really want to buy it but you have to save your money so you walk around the mall
thinking about the purse if all else fails there's always prayer she says oh god yes there were times
when I was like lord give me the strength to make it through this so in the book is she a virgin
for religious reasons yes she said um I pray to like, please don't let me die a virgin.
Let me meet my husband before that happens to me and give me a few good years with him.
Oh, that's so sweet.
I mean, honestly, like the virgin shaming that occurs in society and it really came
to a head with Colton's season of The Bachelor.
And I'm literally by no means like a defender of Colton, but like it was super mean, like
how it became like a joke.
And I feel like there's literally maybe I mean I'm very
actually very like old school in a lot of ways I think there's literally nothing wrong with being
a virgin and like the drama like virgin like who fucking cares no I I don't think there's anything
wrong with being a virgin I think waiting till you're married it's lovely have sex is a beautiful
thing and if you want to do it great you want to fuck a million people too cool love that for you
too also a beautiful thing also a beautiful thing like it's all good. You guys, it's
all good. It's all good in the hood. Yeah. But this book actually does sound good. I mean,
obviously what I want to hear from her is the destruction of the greatest girl band of all time,
girl group, not band because they didn't play any instruments. Um, I would love to hear more
about that and like more like logistics like at what moment like where
were you were you sitting on the couch like when you found out Camilla was leaving were you surprised
yeah what had happened before that yeah was it weird that like she was clearly like made the
star of the group yeah and that she was a lot of people's favorites I don't know if she's people's
anymore I would say maybe Normani is but was what like when you're 15 and like you care so much
about like what people think of you and you're in a girl group where like everyone is obsessed with this one girl like it has to
be destructive for your mental health no I know and I feel like so that should probably be in the
memoir and on the one hand I'd be like no maybe it's her story about her and that she doesn't
focus on that but the title is finding her harmony and so like I think that's a little
too clickbaity a hundred percent she's not going to talk about it it's a good name for a book
really good finding your harmony yeah you know what actually um what i i mean i'm only like
10 of the way through mariah's book but i'm not crazy about the name the meaning of mariah so
i'm glad you brought this up because it leads me back to an interesting point because when i
got the book i just kind of assumed the name was going to be all that glitters like because
that's who she is that's
actually a title of one of the four sections in the book okay the four sections are wayward child
sing sing which is a brilliant play on words singing it's a prison yeah and it's the house
that she built to live in with tommy mottola and like she sang her way into the house and then it
became a prison sing sing got it um all that glitters which is about like the glitter era
and emancipation like emancipation yeah me and like where she's at now and so I thought the way
that it was structured was so great but when I came back to it the meaning of Mariah I think it
actually it ultimately sums up the book once you're finished with it but when you're starting
it you're like oh that's not necessarily like a celebrity like a catchy name you know I
mean I think I understand why she named that the book because in order to understand like all the
things she's been through you need to understand the meaning of Mariah like where she came from
and like her very traumatic childhood but I'm just not crazy about the name okay okay and it's also
the meaning of Mariah Carey which like the double m is good but the carry ruins it no but it's the
meaning of Mariah on the front cover it's the meaning of Mariah.
On the front cover, it says the meaning of Mariah Carey.
Oh.
Because it's also like her name for the authorship.
Got it.
So it's just confusing.
Got it.
Okay.
Our fifth and final story, SNL host Adele finds a reason to sing in Bachelor Sketch.
SNL sung all the way around, Adele sung all the way around snl and i want to
talk about her because we each watched the whole episode what a treat to see adele what a treat i
mean yes the bachelor sketch was far and away the best one because she was singing but i thought
like comedically it wasn't no but she actually has a good like comedic timing some people who like
aren't actors or like comedians trained like they're singers or they're
whatever doing SNL like it can be hard to get that kind of timing but I feel like Adele definitely
and it's because when you if you've been to one of her shows she talks a lot between songs she's
like a person a funny person like if you like and I feel like that's kind of in her vibe in Hollywood
too now like she's very much like in the cool group in Hollywood like her and Jennifer Lawrence
are such good friends Harry Styles she's also funny i feel like she is just
like a funny girl yeah so she definitely had that timing like in her monologue in some of her
sketches so i thought it really elevated a lot of her parts in different sketches including the
bachelor one like her timing was actually very good and of course her voice was unbelievable
and sometimes when you have a british accent like things just sound funnier like catch me next week on Love Island like that was very funny yeah she was great she was she was
really great I was glad that we heard her sing I thought her monologue like stunk it wasn't a
monologue it was just like hey I'm Adele and I'm here because I didn't finish my album yet yeah
um I feel like she had to explain she could have sung during her monologue too so did you tell me
if you feel this like was there like a weirdness
how like just like everyone was looking and of course Adele's like one of the greatest singers
everyone was like looking for her to sing and like why aren't you the performer blah blah which is
just like kind of like a slap in the face to her 100 okay I felt like there was a disrespect towards
her I felt the exact same way because like it was the Adele show yeah it's like it I felt like
that what it like not a great week to be there I mean it's
always a good week to be on SNL because it's like such an honor but I I would have felt like a
little it was almost like because Adele was the host and not the performers like we were settling
for her like that's what the the conversation around them being on SNL felt like and I felt
like it was just like the whole episode just like everything was like a slight towards her yeah because no just everyone was talking about Odell
about everything when we're talking about the music from SNL this week we're talking about
Odell still The Bachelor yeah um Odell did break her character on that African um commercial thing
which of all the sketches like I didn't think was that funny and I don't know why she couldn't stop
laughing like it's not that funny no I didn't and a lot of times when someone breaks during the
sketch it actually makes the sketch funnier because it's like oh my god they're having such a good time and I was just like why are we laughing so hard yeah it ain not that funny no i didn't and a lot of times when someone breaks during the sketch it actually makes the sketch funnier because it's like oh my god they're having such a good time
and i was just like why are we laughing so hard yeah it ain't that funny no my favorite sketch
was the pete davidson chad in the haunted house 100 when he was like spooky and she's like he's
like cool yeah uh okay his bathroom no that was really funny also like and i could say this about any episode
like what where what does pete davidson do like he's not in every time he's on snl like i feel
awkward i'm like i remember i remember all of his interviews and stand-up where he like talks about
how he's like the outcast of snl i'm like oh my god you're still here yeah no and it's just like
it's so bizarre to me that like the most famous person on the cast arguably like in terms of
mainstream media is never on the show yeah i mean he talks about that a lot he's always just waiting to get fired
it sounds like yeah maybe but like but he hasn't gotten fired maybe he writes maybe like embrace
it yeah I don't embrace him I don't know but I agree that haunted house sketch was very funny
and the psychic sketch was hysterical yes like of what's gonna happen in 2020 but like once again
it's just Kate McKinnon is I don't
watch SNL all the time but when I do I come back to the theory it's not a theory the fact that Kate
McKinnon like is the glue that holds it together Kate McKinnon and Keenan put yes and Keenan put
their show on their backs I completely agree not only are they literally in every single sketch
and they play like such a broad range of characters people who you wouldn't think they even look like
but they're the funniest yeah I hope Keenan and kate mckinnon make more money than
the others me too i think they do you know who's actually growing on me who that guy from the at&t
commercials which one is beck bennett oh he's always like playing like a serious guy he played
the bachelor yeah he's growing on me yeah i feel that i don't know what his background is but i
know that he
was on those viral at&t commercials with the kids like he would go into like kindergarten
classrooms and be like 5g you know yeah 4g actually interesting yeah but it was a good
episode of snl love seeing adele she looked amazing she obviously addressed the fact oh right
that she looks so vastly different um she just like literally without fail I've never seen her without perfect hair and makeup like
whoever does her fudge is an artist she looked amazing sorry that was the other part that I
wanted to talk about obviously everyone's talking about her physical transformation
and we've seen photos here and there and everyone's like she looks so different but we've got to see
it in high definition getting to see her like in her element the looks the the styling the dress
that she wore for her bachelor confessional
with like the feather sickening sickening the nails the liner the hair the skin everything
about her she is like so stunning she's always been stunning she's always had like the face of
an angel yeah and she was just like it was a good night to be adele on saturday and you could feel
it you could feel her confidence yeah and it was just it was a beautiful thing to just like watch
someone being so radiant because
there's,
there's not that so much of that right now.
Yeah.
And feeling so like confident and sure of themselves and like having fun.
I was like jealous of the time she was having.
Yeah.
Like I'm sure the after party was lit.
I don't know if they're doing after parties because of,
I feel like they're doing after gatherings.
Yeah.
Well,
I mean,
everyone has been quarantined.
Right.
So like they just should have an after gathering at the office.
Yeah. Yeah. I'm sure, like I'm sure they has been quarantined. Right. So, like, they just should have an after gathering at the office. Yeah.
Yeah.
I'm sure, like, I'm sure they're finding a way to celebrate.
Colin Jost, love my life.
Did you see that?
Him and Scarlett Johansson's Save the Date, like, went viral because it was literally
like a piece of loose leaf.
It was on an index card.
Yeah.
It was like a joke.
Yeah.
It's like, ha ha.
Like.
I didn't find it funny.
Me neither.
It's like.
Kind of rude.
Okay.
I'm glad you agree.
Yeah.
Like send out a,
first of all,
save out,
send out a save the date
and like to joke about
having like a low budget.
Like trying to save money
when your wife is
the highest paid actress
in the industry.
In Hollywood.
And like you literally
are on one of the number
one television shows
every single week.
Like just felt,
it felt a little toe deaf.
I agree.

Good episode.
Better.
Better.
We're getting there.
So a lot actually happened on social media that I was following this morning after last night's episode
because somebody tweeted that, like obviously another slow down, slow-mo version of the fight,
where actually in an attempt to separate them, Giselle pushed Monique before the wine glass
throwing before the hair flipping Giselle pushed Monique and Karen Huger quote tweeted it was like
yeah like you're gonna see her web of lies like becomes unraveled so it's like it's much deeper
and it's not even far from being over because there's so much more to go but this episode was
frustrating it was good but as a Monique stan um she's really losing me
like a hundred percent really I think that okay you want everyone to see how much you've grown
and I and I'm so glad that she's at a place where she like genuinely feels remorse and like wants
the women to know that she is on a good path I just think like inviting them to your live podcast
was probably the worst thing you could have done but it was planned before all of this happened so what did she do no she no i'm saying still do it but to invite robin and wendy to the to this specific
event to make them see your growth like that's not really how it works it just felt very bizarre to
me and like the way she was just like plowing through them on the phone calls like okay well
you want to come it was just it was very bizarre to me and i feel like she has good intentions but her method for like getting back in the good graces of the women and
like wanting them to see how much she's changed like her plan is not good well I mean I just she
had this plan and like obviously we know it's a live podcast like I'm sure a lot of people were
there like hoping to see some of the women for Potomac so like she doesn't expect them all to
come but she's gonna at least try and get some of them there to, like, get buzz for her event.
We don't know what she talked about on the show,
but even when someone asked, like, a question about Candace,
like, and she could have been petty,
and she just said, pray for us.
Like, she really was trying to take the high road.
Like, I understand while in that instance
you're not going to be able to see, like, Monique has changed
or if she has changed, but, like,
if you want to see that change, like,
you have to show up and let these
things happen not just like for sure it it's just it's not as cutting dry as like okay when you come
to this like I'm gonna be ready to show you who I am but it's like if you really want to show people
your growth I just think it's weird to invite them to an event it's like not intimate first of all
second of all Monique's not gonna be able to talk to them.
She's busy working like the stage and putting on a show.
It just seemed like a very bizarre first step
for her to take.
Obviously self-promotional.
She had like a few interests in it,
which I totally understand and respect the business hustle.
But it just seemed very strange.
Like I don't think anyone's gonna get to see her real growth
and her progress when she's on stage like like performing like that made no sense to me.
Well,
I mean,
I would maybe agree with you and I do sort of,
I see where you're coming from,
but then if you look at the event that Wendy had,
I feel like in so many ways it did bring the women together and they were
having great conversations.
And yes,
Wendy was on stage,
but they were listening to her on stage and like feeling so inspired by her
and having so much respect for her.
But Wendy didn't invite them there with the intention of like showing their her growth it was just like a
good event. That's like a natural byproduct of what can happen when you see someone in their element
and you just like have more respect for them you know and so I as much as yes Monique wouldn't
have gone on the stage and been like I am so remorseful and this is how I changed. But did
you think but seeing someone working hard and hard and doing whatever they're trying to do
and if it's good and it's positive,
you do see people in a different light
when you see them in their workplace environment.
But do you think that's the best first step to take?
I think it was the first thing that came up.
That's just how life happens.
You could have reached out to other women
and had one-on-one times.
You mean like a sit down at Karen's house?
She did.
But she didn't put that together. She did. She asked Karen to put it together oh I guess I mean to be like
honest and I love her she's just being so messy and like she makes no sense there's no right way
of going about things when everybody just is only going to see the bad in you it's always going to
come off wrong yeah but part of like actual growth and like progress is like being able to like swallow your pride and take shit from people.
And I feel like that's the one thing that Monique really struggles with.
You don't think she swallowed her pride and took shit when they sat at Karen's house?
No, because she literally said like.
You don't think she's swallowing her pride and taking shit while she's home in every single event that the women are hosting she's not invited to?
No, I don't think so.
No, literally at the event, I think her biggest problem was her inability to just like be like be in the wrong like literally
ever like and they were coming at her like a little too hard but like she just struggles I
think so much with like and first of all her the way she acted at Karen's thing was like really
not great like if she and she said it took her like two weeks to like realize she was wrong which
is kind of fucked up but but okay, it took her two weeks.
So that event at Karen's to me was like,
was not good for Monique.
Like in any way, she said she had no remorse.
Which even if whatever led her
to like physically attacking someone,
like you gotta have remorse.
Yeah, but she has remorse now.
Like it takes time.
Like sometimes you think of like
when you get so mad about something.
So mad and that you act-
Irrationally. Irrationally.
Irrationally.
And after the fact, you're like cemented in the fact like, oh yeah, I needed to do this.
Yeah.
And then eventually you come down from it and you're like, maybe that wasn't the best way.
You have perspective.
She shouldn't have asked Karen to set up that thing for her.
But if she hadn't.
If she was still in the place where she was still seeing black.
Okay, but then if like she hadn't reached out to the women and try and talk to them until she was remorseful,
two weeks would have gone by and they were like, plus you
were silent for two weeks.
Yeah, no, it's an impossible situation to be in.
And I don't know what the right thing for Monique to do moving forward is.
But I just know like everything she's doing is like making me like less.
It's making it less and less easy to like support her.
I feel really good about supporting her.
I know you do.
And you know who I just am? Karen Huger. Karen know who I just am Karen Huger Karen Huger I love
Karen Huger everything she said in that conversation with Candace and then Wendy was so on point was
just straight facts and of course they're all gonna like take it personally and and Karen is
defending Monique and and I'm sure now that Karen's not
even defending no I know but that's how they're gonna see it because she's not on Candace's side
and I just love that Karen Huger is so strong and so sure of herself and and so has such like a
she's so principled so principled and knows like and has her moral compass I totally agree and just
because someone doesn't like what she's saying she's not gonna say something else and just because
everyone's feeling a certain way it doesn't mean she's going to feel that way and I had so much
respect for her and like I couldn't have said it what she said I could not have said it I will not
be battered into submission yeah and when she called Candace a young woman and then on Watch
What Happens Live I you know Ashley and Giselle were like you know when can't when Karen's calling
someone a young woman like you know it's not good like no no she was being a an immature person and needed to be put in her place I could not agree more that actually that
conversation was really frustrating and Wendy was bothering me so much because at the end of the day
it's between Candace and Karen they didn't need her there it didn't get out of hand these are two
you know grown women who were having a very adult conversation even though they were disagreeing
they didn't need a moderator a referee there and and Wendy just makes it so unbalanced because she's so blindly loyal to Candace which is also not a good way to be
so she was really bothering me but I feel like Karen did not let like the two of them kind of
ganging up on her derail her at all she was so poised and she got her point across and I totally
agreed with her and she said like Candace in the past like you have done some fucked up shit and
I've never like took taken the other person's side 100% like I always and and Candice
is just so irrational she's like I just need you to admit that like what Monique did was 100% wrong
and then they flash back to Karen's house where she literally said that like right it's just
it's like only hearing what you want to hear right and when Wendy comes in and she's like
Karen if you would just say this and it's like that's I hate that shit when it's like just say
exactly what I want you to say and you'll be okay like that's not hate that shit when it's like just say exactly what I want you to say and
you'll be okay like that's not how the world works that's not how people work everybody has a
different way of communicating and feeling and we're not all going to say the same things and
it's not going to be exactly what you want to hear like and I just love that Karen was like no
stood her ground no I actually thought Wendy's event was really nice I thought it was wonderful
and like it's crazy because it was filmed like a year ago but it still still feels very appropriate
now because the election's coming up.
And that's where like I love Wendy.
But in terms of the drama, I think she came in in a really tough spot.
And you know what?
This whole season is very difficult because I think like overall, like nobody is disliked
more by the audience than Candace.
But Candace is now truly like the victim.
And she's also living.
Oh, literally.
She's like, how are you?
Literally nobody.
Nobody. Nobody. Nobody. Candace. I've been having panic attacks. and she's also living. Oh, literally, she's like, how are you? Literally, nobody.
Nobody.
Nobody.
Candace.
I've been having panic attacks.
Like, she's just insufferably, like, playing into this role.
But at the end of the day, yes, Monique did initiate that fight,
but, like, Candace has to take responsibility for her part in it. Also, I do feel like my opinion on this is kind of skewed because we've seen that
slow down footage.
And from what I've seen,
like aside from the hair flicking,
which isn't like necessary,
which isn't like a,
the putting your hands on someone,
like it's not not,
but it's not fully like making it physical.
Candace put her hands on Monique first in the slow down video that I saw.
So I'm like watching everything through the lens of
like yes it got superheated and Monique had a really big part in that but like it from what I
saw Candace put her hands on Monique's body first so also then next week Monique is obviously like
counter-suing and I think that's where Candace like gets really freaked out because at the end
of the day Monique has more means to fight this legally.
Like the money for legal bills.
Monique definitely has that over Candace.
And I don't know.
Part of me is kind of like, yeah, get in there.
Get in there, Monique.
Yeah.
It's a really tough position to be in.
Oh, and that's what I was saying for Wendy.
So Wendy came in.
And as the new girl, she has no choice but to be completely loyal to Candace,
which is a tough thing to do because honestly,
even outside of this fight, like Candace is just the worst.
Yeah.
Like over, like overarching, like outside of this fight,
just like as a castmate.
And if it weren't for this fight,
this fight bought her another two seasons.
Like Candace is just the worst.
Yeah.
And the whole season is like now filmed in like the lens of this fight
and it's just like we I'm ready to move on from it you know yeah but it's it's the cornerstone
for everything yeah so they're going to Portugal does everyone go I don't think Monique goes
doesn't look like she was invited that's crazy she's in like was in the footage but I don't know
but isn't,
who's the one who opens up the flag
and is like,
Ashley.
So Ashley,
if it's Ashley's trip,
Monique would be invited.
Okay, that's true.
And it seems like
the trips are obviously
planned by Bravo
so the person who like
brings it to the group
has strategically done so.
So I actually feel like
maybe Monique does go.
Okay, true.
I don't know.
But I mean,
I don't know how she can.
I mean,
it's painfully awkward.
Yeah.
Oh, and then the whole
other part of the episode with Robin and Juan in the ring and like, just ask me if I care. Do you? No, I don't know but I mean I don't know how she can I mean it's painfully awkward yeah oh and then the whole other part of the episode with Robin and Juan in the ring and like just ask me if I care
no I don't so I don't even want to talk about it great I wasn't going to but we did see a little
Jamal Bryant and I know we're like supposed to hate him because like he's unfaithful and like
has children with like a million women but I just love him yeah the car the conversation in the car
was interesting and it was cute and I'm glad they're on the same page and of course the way
that they teased it was like Giselle sounding like she's gonna break up with
him but she was like said that and then was like but I would never do that yeah wait no but I don't
want to do that so we're not like I can't I love her um even though like she's definitely like
sneaky oh for sure she definitely has her hands all over the place yeah no I I like literally
never agree with her role but I just love her fight I just yeah I like her I just never agree with her role in any given fight. But I just love her. I just yeah I like her. I just never agree with her. But I agree like after this episode my respect for Karen
Huger is just like and honestly after the last few episodes like when we saw her hometown it made me
love her so much more and she's been killing these looks. Killing. I'm just completely and totally
here for her. I have so much respect for her and. I feel like in a way she's really like the moral
compass of the show and
honestly I never thought I would say that after like her first few seasons she was insufferable
but I love her love um so that's for Housewives of Potomac tomorrow we have no The Bachelor's
