Starting point is 00:00:00 Good morning, Millennials! Welcome back to the Morning Toast. Happy Thursday. Hope everyone's having an amazing day here in New York. It is blizzard season. It is snow. It is so snowy. I think it's like so blown out behind us.
Starting point is 00:00:13 It's been snowing all through the night. Still snowing this morning. It really is a winter wonderland. Except it's nothing like the Hallmark movies because what they don't show you in the Hallmark movies is the duty brown snow that collects in the street. When you don't plow the streets, Mr. Mayor, where are the snow plows? Yeah, no, these snow plows should be working around the clock and they're just not doing that. Well, I actually I do love
Starting point is 00:00:34 like a winter wonderland in New York because I don't really like leave my house that much. So it's not like that much of an inconvenience, especially in covid. So I was just enjoying being all like snuggled up in my bed last night. Last night I was really enjoying it this morning that's another story but I've got my my moon boots on my snow boots so I was just tearing down the streets. I've got my snow boots on as well had to literally pull them out of the back of my closet like could not find them but I actually don't mind the snow boat look. No I love my moon boots and I just got another pair of moon boots that are like even these ones are just like functional like I actually wear them to go ski and I don't care so much about them but I just got like a chic pair of moon boots that I'm really excited about.
Starting point is 00:01:12 Shoon boots. Shoon boots but I've been wearing moon boots since college. I think they're like the cutest boots ever. I think so too. And this season they are the cutest boots ever but I'll be wearing them long into my old age. Like I love them so much. And they're so functional. Like I actually own snow boots and I'm always so excited to wear them. Mine are from UGG and they are reasonably priced and I think still really cute.
Starting point is 00:01:33 Yeah, they're cute too. I wouldn't have snow boots if we never like went to Utah. Like I used, when it snows in New York, like twice a year, you just figure it out. Like you wear sandals and it just works. That would be me if moon boots didn't exist. Like I only have snow boots be me if moon boots didn't exist. Right.
Starting point is 00:01:48 Like I only have snow boots because I love moon boots. So we've been here in the studio for about 20 minutes and you have not said one word about my haircut. Well, because I noticed it on your Instagram yesterday. And honestly, I just haven't mentioned it because I don't know how to tell you this. But you're triggered by it because you're jealous. I'm so jealous. That's good. You know, because I'm triggered by your apartment.
Starting point is 00:02:03 OK. Because I want an apartment that nice. And now you're triggered by my hair because you want hair that's nice. Yeah, no, like that's like my ideal haircut. Like that's exactly what I would ask for when I went like just like layered. Well, we go to the same hairstylist, Mahogany. So you could say just give me the Claudia. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:16 This is actually like the Rachel kind of. It's like layered. But it's so much longer than the Rachel. Yeah, but it's like the same kind of aesthetic for my certain hairline. And I think we should change it officially to the Claudia. Yeah, we could. Yeah. Or we could just say like, keep it long with layers.
Starting point is 00:02:31 Long with layers. But these are like, you know, I'm very specific about my layers because some people like the front pieces like to go up to their nose. And because I have this like really terrible disease called fat face, I cannot have the front pieces go anywhere like higher than. The front pieces are short though. Yeah, but they're still, they cannot go. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:47 Above my chin. Like that's unacceptable. So it's a whole like mathematic. We had to get like the protractor. It was like a whole thing, but we figured it out because of my very serious illness. It looks great. I'm going to get a haircut in the new year and I'm so excited. My hair is so long.
Starting point is 00:03:00 I can do anything with it. Nothing like a haircut. I could do anything with my hair right now because I have so much like length. Remember when you had a bob? know one day I'm gonna go back to the bob life there's just nothing like a haircut to give you like a renewed sense of self 100 a new outlook on life so what are you looking like what are you seeing in your new outlook so I'm saying that things are you know still pretty much the same but I'm looking at it with fresh eyes I'm sore from live method and when laugh, my chest hurts and it's like,
Starting point is 00:03:26 it feels like a pain that should be concerning. It's just so sad that you're hanging out with the funniest girl live. Also, it's coming from my right side. So like, I'm not concerned. And I know it's like, it's soreness.
Starting point is 00:03:38 Cause I'm really sore, but it's like a new thing. I guess we're doing like too much. Chest pains are never good. We're doing too much chest work, man. And so it's really painful. You're going to be broad as fuck. I guess we're doing like too much. Chest pains are never good. We're doing too much chest work, man. And so it's really painful. You're going to be broad as fuck.
Starting point is 00:03:48 I'm going to be broad. Yes. We have an amazing show for you guys today. Of course, the Fast Five. Two hours of Housewives last night. OC and Salt Lake City. And I have a very hot take. Did you watch OC?
Starting point is 00:03:58 Yeah, I watched both. I have a very hot take. I actually think that the OC episode was better than the Salt Lake City episode. Yeah. I still liked the Salt Lake City like ladies better and the vibe. But in terms of like drama and movement and plot, I actually like thought the OC episode was really super interesting. It was pretty interesting.
Starting point is 00:04:13 But I just loved also watching Salt Lake City last night as it snowed and there it's Sundance. And I'm just like, this is the vibe. I gotta get to Sundance. Yeah. I hate going to things where like it's the thing and everyone's there that's so funny we couldn't be more different like I love that yeah no it's like no I want to go to Park City when no one's there oh but I like when I can get a reservation at any restaurant it's not like everyone from Hollywood is in town it's like if I wanted to go to Hollywood I would I would
Starting point is 00:04:39 take a flight to LA okay I feel that I do and I like that as well like I actually prefer to go to Montauk in the winter as opposed to the summer. You know what I mean? Yeah. But that doesn't mean I'm still not going to like the hotspot weekends in, you know, park city because I just love to like flex and be a star fucker. And I'm like such a social climber and that's like where I thrive. Yeah. And no, and I don't need it to be like desolate, but it's like, I don't need to go to Montauk on July 4th. I can go the following weekend. Oh, that's so funny. No, I will go the following weekend, but then I also must be there the weekend of like, how's anyone going to know like I'm girl with no job, you know? Speaking of girl with no job, we are now super close. Well,
Starting point is 00:05:14 not super close. We're getting closer to the release of my book, a girl with no job, the crazy beautiful life of an Instagram thirst monster. It is available for pre-order. If you go to girlwithnojob.com slash book, very simple to remember. All the retailers are there, plus all the versions are available for pre-order. So that's audiobook, ebook, and of course, hardcover book. And it's just a fabulous book. There's some fabulous blurbs on the back written by a couple fabulous people, including my sister Jackie. And if you want to support Jackie, buy this book. If you want to support me. It would mean a lot to me, you guys. Thank you. You know, this is what I did it like for you, you know?
Starting point is 00:05:46 Stop like Jess. Yeah. So girlwithnojob.com slash book. If you were on my Instagram live last night, I played a little game where people were commenting page numbers and then I would just find the page and read the first sentence on the page. And I think it got everyone like, I think pre-sale numbers were really up. And if your question is, should I wait till the week of or should I pre-order? Either works as long as you're buying my book. But pre-sale would be really helpful seeing as how I'm trying
Starting point is 00:06:07 to get into bookstores and more importantly, airport bookstores. And you need to have like high concentration of order numbers in order to do that. So girlwithnojob.com slash book. And I really, you can buy it from anywhere. Of course, local bookstores, if you use bookshop.com, but if you're looking to save some money this holiday season, Amazon keeps putting my book on sale, like without my permission. So it's good for you. Yeah, that is good. Competition benefits the consumer.
Starting point is 00:06:31 And there's a picture of Theo on the back. So on dates like today when he's not on the show, you could just look at it. I couldn't bring him in today. No, when I rolled up and I saw he wasn't here, I was like, oh, duh. Of course. No, it's so cold. He walked for 45 minutes, did did not poop and he came back freezing and like so now he's laying in the living room it's 79 degrees and he's just like sweating he's sweating bullets Bruno hasn't been outside in like 24 hours now it's so hard to be a dog
Starting point is 00:06:55 mom when it snows like we are just such an underappreciated group of people I know but then I saw like Knowles was thriving in the snow and I was like oh my am I well I don't want to out Knowles but Knowles doesn't really go out you know oh yeah yeah she has like a nice little place that she goes yeah that's true she doesn't go to like salted streets and stuff no and the salt is really scary it gets like stuck in their paws yeah Theo was like limping yesterday because there was a piece of salt stuck between his paw pads like it was so sad stop that's why he needs the boots lip no I know do you see those boots Knowles was wearing? Yeah. Really
Starting point is 00:07:25 cute. Theo, we've tried boots like the balloon boots and regular boots from Amazon. Bruno just got a pair of balloon boots. And it's like, he has four legs. Every time I go out, I have to put on four shoes. It's insane. It's insane. Okay, I'm glad you agree. But Knowles looks like they had a little zipper. Hers looked better. Yeah, but with the little
Starting point is 00:07:41 strap, I'm like, I'm going to buckle you in four times, four times a day. Okay, well, at least's better than we know who literally pees every 45 minutes. That's crazy. Crazy. Um so yes we have a fabulous show for you guys. Um I think we should you know just jump right in. Right. We actually have some really good stories so without further ado it's time for the fast five stories that you need to know before you wake up and take a bite out of your morning toast. My chest. Uh-oh. Oh, snap. I had a vision. Raven Simone came to me. She said, Claudia, you must tell the world about the power of Bruch or else you will suffer from a very severe and deadly case of R-D-H. Thank you, Raven. I shall deliver your message to the people of the-D-H. Thank you, Raven.
Starting point is 00:08:25 I shall deliver your message to the people of the Morning Toast with honor. Today's episode is brought to you by Bruch, which we talk about all the time and people keep asking for the code. So here it is. Don't forget, Bruch is the most amazing electric toothbrush on the market.
Starting point is 00:08:37 I went to the dentist two days ago and she literally was like, oh my God, what kind of toothbrush do you use? You brush so well. And I'm like, thanks doc, it's a Bruch. And if you want to know what Bruch is they clean your teeth at 31 000 movements a minute whereas manual toothbrushes tap out at just 300 many electric toothbrushes are barely a step up for manuals and some of the electric toothbrushes on the market that do a good job can cost over 200
Starting point is 00:08:58 dollars but bruce is here they deliver premier sonic wave technology without the markups that big electric toothbrushes tack on. You get the Bruch kit, which is what Jackie and I both have. We got it in the millennial pink, which is it's so cute on your counter and has this like magnetic, very sleek charging station. You get in the kit. It features the toothbrush, three electric brush heads, magnetic charging station and a sleek travel case. And the Bruch itself has six cleaning modes. Daily, white, gentle, gum, max, and tongue.
Starting point is 00:09:26 It has a smart timer with a quad pacer. And the battery life lasts four weeks. So if you are going to travel, you don't need to bring a charger unless you're traveling for more than four weeks, in which case I'm jealous. Must be nice. And if you want to get 15% off plus express free shipping December 16th through December 20th, so if you want to get it as a gift for someone and you might think it's too late, shipping December 16th through December 20th. So if you want to get it as a gift for someone and you might think it's too late, it's not because that 15% off and free express shipping is still
Starting point is 00:09:49 valid when you use promo code toast at bruch.com. It's guaranteed arrival before Christmas and you can try it 90 days risk-free and get a two-year warranty. So the website to get your bruch and the code is bruch.com, promo code toast. And honestly, my doctor said I had amazing teeth, so like, if you want amazing teeth, bruce. I used to think that brushing your teeth didn't make a difference at the dentist, you know what I mean? But she straight up was like, your teeth look so good, you're a good brusher. What do you use? And she's like, electric?
Starting point is 00:10:16 And I'm like, ma'am, it's a bruce. It's a bruce. Get your bruce. Get your bruce on. Okay, first story. The biggest news of the day, strangely enough, the planned Lizzie McGuire revival is officially dead at Disney+. Hilary stuff made the Hilary stuff. Oh, I'm like Hilary Stephanie Duff.
Starting point is 00:10:34 I didn't know she had a middle name. Hilary Duff made the announcement on Instagram on Wednesday saying, quote, I've been so honored to have the character of Lizzie in my life. I know the efforts and conversations have been everywhere trying to make a reboot work but sadly and despite everyone's best efforts it isn't going to happen. I want any reboot of Lizzie to be honest and authentic to who Lizzie would be today. It's what the character deserves. Okay I have two thoughts on this reboot. One am I necessarily like devastated that I won't be watching it? No because I probably like wouldn't have watched it in full anyway. Reboots are just, like, so pathetic.
Starting point is 00:11:06 Second, I just find it shocking that this particular reboot did not get rebooted because there are so many, like, shitty reboots. And of all the ideas I've heard for a reboot, like, this is not the worst one. No, it's really not. But this is not surprising. I mean, it wasn't very long ago
Starting point is 00:11:20 where she, like, posted on social media to ask Hulu to pick it up. So there's obviously, like, drama. A sad element sad element there yeah drama at the Lizzie McGuire reboot and also like I'm so anti-reboot that like to me this was good news it's like oh great another show that's not going to be ruined and can just live in our memory is like a perfect thing you know when like you have you heard of the Mandela effect no it's a thing on TikTok where I mean it's a thing in like psychology, but I learned about it on TikTok where it's like you have these preconceived notions in your head and like of what things look like or what things appear to be or what you experience, but it's actually not at
Starting point is 00:11:54 all. Like if I were to tell you, you know what the Fruit of the Loom logo looks like? Yeah. What does it look like? Like fruit in the basket. There's no basket. There's no cornucopia. Oh wow. That's the Mandela effect. It's like everyone just assumed there was like a cornucopia but there wasn't. And I think one of those things is like we think that Lizzie McGuire was like this amazing transformative show. There were literally two seasons. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:16 Like that's crazy. Yeah. And when I heard that like my mind was blown. I think of it as like Hannah Montana which was like seven seasons. Like I just I assume I looped it in with all those other Disney shows but it had two seasons yeah but even if this was Hannah Montana we were talking about like Hannah Montana is that perfect thing and like I just don't think you need to touch perfection or work it to the bone so that it's no longer perfect well that's
Starting point is 00:12:38 an interesting thing you say because I obviously would definitely be interested in discussing a Hannah Montana reboot but it would definitely be interested in discussing a Hannah Montana reboot but it would only be if Miley was like so fully on board and I think she's made it very clear she hates Hannah no I think she's like into Hannah these days and I think she would be on board but like I don't want that reboot I think she's into Hannah now because Hannah's music outperforms Miley's music yeah back then and now yeah I just I don't just, I don't want it. I don't want these reboots, but you know what is looking pretty good? Those Gossip Girl cast photos that are coming out of the Gossip Girl
Starting point is 00:13:10 reboot. But like, but that's also different because it's a whole new cast. So it's like, that was like when 90210, we had the, and I like. Shailene Woodley.
Starting point is 00:13:19 That was so good. It says on Shailene Woodley. Shailene McGuire. What's her name? The other Shailene. Grimes. Sinead Gr other Shailene. Grimes. Sinead Grimes. Sinead Grimes.
Starting point is 00:13:27 They're literally the same person. I'm sorry. I agree. They look exactly alike and their names are the same. I completely agree. I think my favorite fact about 90210 is that Sarah Foster was in it. Yeah, and Meghan Markle was in it. Oh, yes.
Starting point is 00:13:40 But Sarah Foster was like actually in it and Meghan Markle was in it for like one second. And also Ted from Schitt's Creek was in it. Oh, yeah. Sarah Foster was everything in like, actually in it. And Meghan Markle was in it for, like, one second. Sarah Foster had, like, a character. And also Ted from Schitt's Creek was in it. Oh, yeah. Sarah Foster was everything in 90210. Naomi's sister. Yeah. I can't believe, like, that's Sarah Foster. Did we talk to Sarah Foster about that when she was on the podcast?
Starting point is 00:13:53 I don't know. We must have. There's just so many fun facts. But anyway, so what I'm saying is if there was a Lizzie McGuire reboot where it was, like, I don't know, like, Lisa McGuire. And it was just, like, a different girl, like, livinguire. And it was just like a different girl. But is it the same age, like same premise? Same premise, but like new cast,
Starting point is 00:14:10 like Gossip Girl, like 90210. I could be more here for that, but to like bring these characters into their old age, like- It's a little sad. It's a little sad. But there are like very few examples of super successful reboots.
Starting point is 00:14:22 I think Fuller House is probably the most successful one. Like people love it. I've watched a few episodes. It's actual trash, but people seem to, I don't know what's going to be without Lori Loughlin, but people seem to love it. And it's on like their fourth season now.
Starting point is 00:14:35 And that's because like, they didn't bother having all the people. They took the ones who were kids on the show and they grew up. And now it's like, I think it was well done in the sense that it's really full circle. It's like now DJ is a mom, you know? Yeah, I mean, I can't speak to whether or not it's well done because I haven't watched it.
Starting point is 00:14:49 Well, it's successful because it hasn't been canceled and it's on its like fourth. It's ending. Oh, it's ending. Okay. Great. Great, great, great, great. No, I'm trying to think of reboots that I do watch.
Starting point is 00:14:58 I don't watch any. I don't think that I watch any. It's a novelty. So them having like six seasons is unnecessary because it's like you watch it once like to see your characters back together. But then to watch them like go back to work, it's just sad.
Starting point is 00:15:10 It's just sad. And also like I just feel as though Lizzie McGuire would grow up to be Kelsey from Younger. And that show's already being made. Redundant. If they want to go into Kelsey's backstory and her real name is Lizzie and she like went to Italy and she dressed
Starting point is 00:15:24 and like and she was a pop star. Sure. Yes. Sure. Yes. I'll take that because you know the whole younger storyline is getting kind of older. By the way 100 percent. Yeah. So I don't know I just don't think this is like very sad news. Or shocking because there was so much drama on the set and then Lizzie pleading on Instagram. It was just messy from the moment it started yeah I'm just like I'm okay with this but I know a lot of people aren't and I I'm sure you're going through it right now and I know I think you're okay I think you're okay checking just respect that people might have wanted the reboot no like I'm sure people wanted the reboot but you know what you guys it's gonna be okay like it was only on for two years anyway and we were like 11 years old yeah the Mandela effect is like something I'm currently obsessed with. Nice. Current obsessions. Okay next up a little food news. Alison Roman won't return
Starting point is 00:16:11 to the New York Times after the Chrissy Teigen drama. Alison Roman announced she will not return to the New York Times after taking a break from the gig following her controversial comments on Chrissy Teigen. She wrote on Instagram on Wednesday quote feels like a good time to formally mention I won't be returning to New York Times cooking. i'm proud of the work we made together but excited for this new chapter which includes more recipes videos and writing over on a newsletter and beyond writing over at where a newsletter that's called a newsletter i believe because the a is capitalized there has been the n is capitalized got it year, there has been so much food drama. Like, this.
Starting point is 00:16:47 And then there was, like, all this drama with Bon Appetit. And I don't follow, but I just, like, saw people talking about it. And it's, like, the food world is, for lack of a better word, crumbling. Ow. My chest. That was a good pun. My chest. I don't care.
Starting point is 00:17:03 Like, I don't care, you know? I'm not, like, big into the food world, but she posted this news alongside a recipe of like this anchovy shallot pasta. Disgusting. No, but like, that's the point. It's a number one recipe from like New York Times food for the whole year. So like, that's really what people are making this year at home. And apparently it's like you use the whole can of anchovies and it's still good.
Starting point is 00:17:22 That's so sick. No, but like, that's the point. People are so disgusting. Anyways, I just feel like just so uncivilized i i feel like i wish i tried that pasta this year i mean you still can i know i just feel like i wasted so much of quarantine like just making chili like making jelly chili like i could have started making chili like a month ago no i started making chili well in the beginning of quarantine I feel like I could have stepped outside my comfort zone a little bit and I feel like everyone was making like shallot pasta and I was just like heating up you know chicken plant-based chicken nuggets yeah no I have no regrets about what I decided to cook in quarantine because I didn't go for the sardine
Starting point is 00:17:58 pasta but I did really um cultivate my craft of spaghetti bolognese and taco and that's like my two favorite meals so I have no regrets no I mean I just said that pasta looks really good and I'd like to like do something other than pasta and cottage cheese or rayos oh I love rayos um sorry for Alison Roman that she's currently on a job she's such a household name at this point which I learned like because due to her controversy to this drama and so I feel like she you know could become like an extremely she already is but on her own a very influential food news they're always looking for new folks over at food network yeah I feel like there's so many opportunities in the food world and I think her brand is on point and people love her recipes and a bunch of people left bon appetitit this year. Right. So I think like.
Starting point is 00:18:45 I heard they're hiring. The food world is really being shaken up. Yeah. Just like your salad. But I feel like I've actually been in the mood. This is weird to watch like cooking shows, like traditional cooking shows. I'm so glad.
Starting point is 00:18:57 I am so, so glad you brought that up. And so every once in a while when I'm like just wanting to watch live TV, like I don't want to have to go to one of the streaming services. And I'm like, I want to watch the Food Network. Like I want to watch like Sandra Lee Two Shots. Like I want to watch Rachel Ray. Every single time I turn on the Food Network, it's a competition cooking show.
Starting point is 00:19:14 I was just having this conversation with someone. They don't fucking put on cooking shows anymore. It is all competition. Guys, grocery games, Cupcake Wars. There is no more 30-minute meals at home with Sandra Lee. Artie's Party. Like, where are those shows of people just standing in their kitchen cooking? I could not agree more.
Starting point is 00:19:32 Those were iconic. And even though you're never going to make the recipes, there was something so soothing about just, like, watching people cook. And also, like, I just want to watch other people cook to learn, like, small techniques that I don't already know. Like, no, I'm not going to, like, write down the whole recipe and copy it on the TV. Mrs. Doubtfire style.
Starting point is 00:19:47 No, they put it on the blog. So right. But like she was watching TV and doing the recipe. Yeah, I don't think I would do that. But like watching how they do like chop certain things might just give me a skill that I didn't already have. And I feel like I would find it really soothing. Also, they always have these like holiday cupcake things on.
Starting point is 00:20:02 I'm like, oh, I'll watch it because I like the great competition. Yeah, I like the great British bake off. so it must not be that dissimilar but like no shade to these bakers like it's really bad yeah I know the stuff that they do it's like it's real amateur hour and I feel like maybe I feel like they've ran out of like really talented bakers yeah because it's been on for so long when they first started they got the best in the country and then they like started to lower their bar and now it's's like, honestly, I could do it. Yeah, no, it's just like not that impressive.
Starting point is 00:20:28 No, I know. It's like mean to say. I do like those like Halloween cake wars where you like make the scariest ghost house. And that's cool. But I agree.
Starting point is 00:20:36 I'm really upset with the programming shift. I don't think, I don't even know one. I think they still put on Barefoot Contessa sometimes. I would love to watch her yeah controversially she's not my absolute favorite in terms of watching them cook my least
Starting point is 00:20:50 favorite was always Giada De Laurentiis but I would even take that I really loved 30 Minute Meals with Rachel Rachel Ray's iconic I'm finally at a point in my life where I can appreciate this content I never watched it before and it's like now I'm finally here and the train has left the station yeah no we're so late like it's so crazy. I'm sure it's because like competition shows just perform so much better. Yeah. But I don't know I just I feel like there's a gap in the in the market. Iron Chef like I'm so over these competition shows. Beat Bobby Flay there's so many. I just feel like throughout the daytime there should be like the shows that you watch at home. Yeah. And then at night like we could spice it up with some competition. Well so there's also the Cooking, which I believe is owned by Food Network because
Starting point is 00:21:27 they, like, share a lot of talent. And Debbie Mazur has her show on there, Bitchin' Kitchen. I wonder if that maybe is, like, where that programming went. I've never watched. I know it's one channel up for me from Food Network. Maybe. I don't know. I just, all I know is I've been disappointed too many times.
Starting point is 00:21:42 And so I had to bring it up. I'm so glad you brought that up because I've been thinking that you had the same thought I don't know who I was just with but I was literally talking about how it's like so frustrating that every time I go I get the itch I go and it's like never what I want it's always guys grocery games supermarket sweep like yeah maybe they're on like a streaming service but again it's like no I don't want to have to like come into it I just wanted like background noise yeah I'll even watch commercials like I just I want the relaxed Rachel Ray and I loved that kitchen she used to work out of it was like very retro do you remember yeah it was like all kind of like smeg inspired yeah she that was my favorite show
Starting point is 00:22:12 I remember like watching that growing up I love Rachel Ray I should watch her daytime talk show you should she's a queen I think she's she's really successful with she's so rich I have her um baking trays they're wonderful I know I burned my finger on it. Yeah. Well, that was on you. A hundred percent. I don't blame Rachel. Rachel literally said, don't touch it right out of the oven. I'm not suing. I'm not a. You wouldn't have a case. No, I mean, I would. I did suffer, you know, three degree burns. They're, they're degree burns. Anyways, if anyone's listening, please, please help us. Where can we find those shows? Yeah. Okay. Ready for our next story? Yes. It's a little New Year's Eve news because the plans have been announced
Starting point is 00:22:47 for New Year's Eve in Times Square and it's the first time since 1907 that the ball will drop without spectators. And I'm just curious, what happened in 1907 that there were no spectators? None of the articles have it. Influenza? Something?
Starting point is 00:22:59 I don't know. Spanish flu? They haven't said. Wow. They're just like saying 1907. Depression? No, those are 20s. Yeah, no.
Starting point is 00:23:06 So. World War I? No, that's like the teens. Oh, it is? Yeah. So anyways, just that's a fun fact about 1907. But also, no spectators at the New Year's Rockin' Eve. And Gloria Gaynor will be performing I Will Survive.
Starting point is 00:23:21 I just have to. Okay, that's like in poor taste. No, I feel like it's meant to be inspirational. No, it is. But like the year that people, so many people died from a disease and were like, I will survive. It just seems like in poor taste. And the year that so many people survived from the disease. Okay.
Starting point is 00:23:35 And the accompanying. Okay, Gloria, whatever. I just seem, it just seems like we're living in such sensitive times. I'm just shocked that didn't get tabled immediately. That passed. Yeah, no, really. of times i'm just shocked that didn't get tabled immediately yeah no really and i just have to say um they can try to keep people out of times square just like they tried to keep people out of the rockefeller christmas tree lighting did you see what happened oh my god they literally put up
Starting point is 00:23:56 huge like 18 wheeler trucks around rockefeller center so even if you were standing like you couldn't see inside people there was like one gap between two trucks. A million people like came just to take pictures. So in New York, I mean, Times Square is so much bigger. So they can try. But I have a feeling people will, who want to, will make their way over there. Oh, wow. I didn't even think that people would like want to go there.
Starting point is 00:24:20 You cannot stop a drunk New Yorker. Like pandemic, come hell or high water, like, they're going. Yeah. Oh, wow. That'll be interesting. And then, of course, you can watch it on TV. So... Dicken...
Starting point is 00:24:31 1907 was the first ball drop. Oh! 1907 was the first ball drop, and they didn't let people come see it. Like, that seems, like, kind of selfish. No, they're saying since 1907. Well, then the headline should be, Times Square ball drop will drop without spectators for the first time ever. Right. Not since 1907 well then then the headlight should be times where ball drop will drop without spectators for the first time ever right not since 1907 right you know what I mean 100 100
Starting point is 00:24:51 because I was I had that thought I was like maybe that was the year it started but then it should say first time ever 100 100 you know 100 so balls have been dropping since 1907 um this is like sad you know this is another thing dick and rock and clock and rock and eve um i that's like a memory from like the time that i was born and you see the people and you're always like i want to go there and then you grow up and it's like why the fuck would i want to go there yeah i always wanted to like be in times square and then it's like you grow up and you realize what it actually entails and then grow up and then you're like, I want to perform. Oh, yes. Just kidding. I have no talents.
Starting point is 00:25:27 No, you could. I could lip sync like everyone else. We could be like Andy and Anderson. 100%. That's a good dream. Actually, I happen to think that Andy and Anderson's New Year's Eve is like maybe one of the best one out there. Like they're so funny.
Starting point is 00:25:42 And I meant to bring this up yesterday because two nights ago, I watched Anderson on Watched Happens Live with Kaley Cuoco talking about the flight attendant and it was just so funny and he was so relaxed and he's always I feel like very uptight on Watch What Happens Live like about time people getting their answers like it all running smoothly and I think it actually like affects his performance yeah like he doesn't listen to the answer because he's like is this answer he's on his cards yeah um but he was so relaxed with Anderson. And it was, like, such a good vibe.
Starting point is 00:26:06 I loved seeing Andy in that way. And that's what they do on New Year's Eve. And I feel like they're so funny. I remember a few years ago it was raining. And they're, like, on these, they're, like, in skyboxes. So they're, like, kind of in the air. It was raining and they were wearing umbrellas. And, like, they were holding umbrellas.
Starting point is 00:26:22 And, like, the TV association, like, called them when they were on commercial break and was like, you can't use an umbrella. It's like a fire hazard. If it falls off the thing, it'll hit someone in the face. And Andy and Anderson took their umbrellas down, and we're getting, like, poured on, and they're looking around all the other skyboxes of all the other broadcasts going on, and like, everyone is using an umbrella. And it was just so funny.
Starting point is 00:26:40 I feel like they do a really good job. And I haven't watched Dick Clark rock Ryan Seacrest in so long. I just feel like it's not it. It's time to bring in the big guns. Anderson and Andy, I think. Oh, I watched a little bit of them and I had the opposite thought. Really? I thought it was like so what you thought was like candid about it.
Starting point is 00:26:57 I thought it was like super messy. Oh, that's what I love, though. Yeah. I don't know. They like conferenced in like Lindsay Lohan. Oh, that's funny. No, no, no. But like there was like the Wi-Fi was horrible.
Starting point is 00:27:06 Like it was painful. Is this on Watch Office Live you're saying? No, on New Year's Eve. But I don't know. Maybe I'm just misremembering. Also, I think like the historical significance of like it being Kathy Griffin and then like Kathy Griffin like coming for Andy Cohen's neck in all those videos. Like that to me as a pop culture enthusiast, like I have no choice but to stand.
Starting point is 00:27:28 It's exciting. Okay, well next up, speaking of of celebs we have the highest paid celebrities of 2020 according to forbes judge judy no okay let me think number one highest paid celeb men or a woman woman kylie yep number queen queen queen queen Queen at $590 million in 2020.

Starting point is 00:28:25 No. Think more like metaphysically. Tony Robbins? No. He's very, has a hand in everything. Ryan Seacrest. No. Think more like metaphysically. Tony Robbins? No. You're getting closer, sort of. Yeah, like culty vibes? I mean, no.

It's all coming back to me. We were so happy for him. And why were so happy for him. Yes. It's all coming back to me. We were so happy for him.
Starting point is 00:29:26 And why were we happy for him? Because he's a precious gem of a man. Like always doing like the best good work. Lifting people up. Remind me. Tyler Perry. Oh, yes. So happy for him.
Starting point is 00:29:40 And I'm glad that he's using those funds to pay Carl Lentz's rent. Yes, exactly. Seven, Neymar, another athlete. Eight. Okay, the eight is big for the broadcasting hosting world. Joe Rogan? No, but that's a good guess. Similar, but more established.
Starting point is 00:29:56 Who's more established than Joe Rogan? It's right there. It's right there. Alex Cooper? Who? Howard Stern. Oh, duh, duh, duh, duh. I go so fixated on podcasting, I forgot about radio.
Starting point is 00:30:11 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, my God. Nine. Athlete man. LeBron? Yeah. Oh, my God. I'm so smart.
Starting point is 00:30:18 Ten. Actor. Man. Movie star. Former athlete. Arnold Schwarzenegger? No, that's a good guess. The Rock.
Starting point is 00:30:27 Oh, man. Are you okay with your chest? No, I'm really not. Because you're like not laughing at any of my jokes. And it's so hurtful. No, if I touch my chest, it means it's funny. Okay, okay. It's like American Sign Language.
Starting point is 00:30:37 Yeah. So those are your top 10 highest paid celebrities of 2020. Who was number 10? The Rock. Oh, right. Do you want some more? Sure. I'll just rattle them off instead of this guessing game. I was number 10? The Rock. Oh, right. Do you want some more? Sure. I'll just rattle them off instead of this guessing game.
Starting point is 00:30:47 I was having fun, but sure. 11, Rush Limbaugh. 12, Ellen. 13, Bill Simmons. Also Ellen, sorry, really? Bill Simmons, podcasting. Yeah, podcasting. Love that for him.
Starting point is 00:30:58 Yeah, yeah, yeah, because he sold his network. The Ringer. Yeah. To Spotify? Who did he sell it to? Yeah, Spotify. So Ellen put out this video just like, on how she's doing. And honestly, like, I really felt bad for her.
Starting point is 00:31:11 Like, she's just, she's a woman defeated. Like, she's, she was just so down. Like, yes, because she had COVID. But, like, I just think she knows, like, like, her time is up. You know what I mean? Like, everyone's just, like, over her. It was just, like, such a sad video to see her, like, this powerful woman just be. I feel like if she thought everyone was over her, she wouldn't put out a video talking about her COVID symptoms.
Starting point is 00:31:32 I feel like she had to. Why? Because, like, that's just the world we live in now. And she was like, I'm totally fine, 100%. They don't tell you about the excruciating back pain. They tell you about it on OC, Real Housewives of OC. That's true. She was just, like, trying to be funny and like relatable and it was just it was so flat
Starting point is 00:31:49 and the video like for the first time in this whole ellen debacle like i i felt a lot of sympathy for ellen and not so much because she had covid but just because her spirit was was crushed i understand and then she was like trying to be funny like like playing Connect 4 with Portia. And it was just, it was soul crushing. It really was. Chest, chest touch. 14, Elton John. Happy for him. 15, James Patterson, the novelist.
Starting point is 00:32:16 But you might know him from the Jeffrey Epstein documentary, which is so underrated. Oh, which is so weird. I thought you were going to say you might know him from his commercials. Like every book he makes has a commercial for some reason on James Patterson. Yeah. And then he's like walking the beach in the Epstein documentary because he was his neighbor. Yeah. Because he lived in Palm Beach. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:28 Well, that's actually, you know what that reminds me of? And I think it was, I'm so glad he put it in his standup routine. When Dave Chappelle did the whole thing on R. Kelly and he was like, I'm not a betting man, but if I were like R. Kelly definitely did that shit. And then he was like, and I have this friend, Dream, who's a documentary filmmaker and she made the Lifetime documentary and she was like, Chappelle, do you want to be in it? And he was like and I have this friend Dream who's a documentary filmmaker and she made the Lifetime documentary and she was like Chappelle do you want to be in it and he was like no and then Dream when she was doing press was like um Dave Chappelle said no to being in the documentary
Starting point is 00:32:54 and of course like everyone picked that up and Dave Chappelle was like I only said no because I don't know this man at all we never met him and that now it's like a trend of like celebrities being put in documentaries when they've literally never met the person they know nothing about but it's like because they're a celebrity.
Starting point is 00:33:08 And they have an opinion on the matter like they're an expert. James Patterson. Yeah. No but he lived there. And he's I don't think
Starting point is 00:33:15 it's the same thing. So. 16. Steph Curry. 17. Ariana Grande. 18. Ryan Reynolds.
Starting point is 00:33:22 Wait where's Taylor Swift on this list? She's not here. What year is this? 2020. The one that we're in i guess she really by the time she might be later down 19 gordon ramsay 20 i think this is the most shocking one the jonas brothers whoa 68.5 million dollars but how did how did musicians make money in 2020 um in tour album sales merchandise licensing deals i guess um taylor's number 25 on the list at 63.5 million but like the chain smokers are 21 well how much 68 million dr phil is 22 happy for him ed sheeran's 23 kevin durant's 24 taylor's 25 tiger woods 26
Starting point is 00:34:10 kurt cousins 27 post malone 28 jk rowling 28 also ryan seacrest 28 also they all made 60 million fabulous i'm happy for all these people slightly jealous but still happy yeah still happy jealous very very so jealous so just interesting what the celebs were up to who was making money in 2020 Happy for all these people. Slightly jealous, but still happy. Yeah, still happy. Jealous. Very. Very. So jealous. So just interesting what the celebs were up to who was making money in 2020. Wow, this list is really interesting. Like Shawn Mendes, $54.5 million.
Starting point is 00:34:36 Well, he had a Netflix documentary, so I'm sure that was like at least 20 mil. You think so? Yeah. And I think his tour ended. And he grossed $87 million on tour in 2019. And that's how the Jonas Brothers made a lot of money to their tour in 2019. So this is the list from money they made in 2019? You know I don't know how it goes. Okay. You know. Because um. It's the 2020 list but like some you know maybe you cashed the check in 2020. Yeah I feel that. I find it interesting though that like everyone's been
Starting point is 00:35:03 suffering this year but it seems like celebrity culture is like alive and well and they're still making lots of money. And I'm happy for them. Yeah. I mean this is like a list of like literally the biggest people on earth and so like smart and respected intellectuals and Kylie is number one and that's just everything to me. And I know that's like why people hate her but that's why I personally stand for life. Like stand for life. She's not just on the list like number one above Kanye like that's crazy crazy um above James Patterson so prestigious um all right now that's not no because I know we have one more story yeah that's not the fifth and final story because the fifth and final story is the fact that Dorinda Medley is selling Sonia by Sonia Morgan dresses on Poshmark used one dress a used Son. A used Sonya by Sonya Morgan dress.
Starting point is 00:35:46 Yes. Roni fans might be dying to get their hands on a dress designed by Sonya Morgan, but now they can get it straight from Dorinda's closet. Dorinda recently added a black balloon sleeve dress from the Sonya by Sonya Morgan line to her Poshmark page and is selling the $200 style for $175. That's not enough of a discount for a used dress. Yeah. Normally like I don't really report on former housewives doing stuff. Oh is that like a principle? That's just like a personal preference. Yeah. But you wanted to talk about this. Because I saw also somebody left a
Starting point is 00:36:18 comment on our Instagram that in addition to selling a Sonia by Sonia Morgan used dress Dorinda is also selling a used Lady Gang piece of merch. What? Yeah. So justice for the Lady Gangers. I always feel like when we get to an appointment with a former housewife shelling things on Poshmark, it's always dark, you know? And this reminds me of when Carol Roswell was let go from Housewives.
Starting point is 00:36:39 She was selling used underwear on. Lingerie. Lingerie. But which is stuff that you put on your bottoms. It's just fancy underwear. Yeah, yeah. She was selling it underwear on. Lingerie. But which is stuff that you put on your bottoms. It's just fancy underwear. Yeah, yeah. She was selling it on Poshmark. And I just feel like I agree.
Starting point is 00:36:50 I don't necessarily need to keep up with former housewives. But I was really interested, especially in New York, as it pertains to the women's finances related to the show. And that's why they're so dependent on it. And I think Dorinda was a prime example of that. She moved out of her apartment. She's now fully in the Berkshires. And her Instagram is just getting weirder and weirder. Oh, I don of her apartment. She's now fully in the Berkshires. And her Instagram is just getting weirder and weirder.
Starting point is 00:37:08 Oh, I don't follow her, but she's fully in the Berkshires. I really like that for her. Me too. Her house in the Berkshires is so nice. Did you see this video that I sent you about? I started to watch it. On Dorinda's Instagram? I started to watch it, but then I couldn't give it more time than I did.
Starting point is 00:37:22 Okay, because I thought it was a joke, but then it wasn't. And if you haven't watched it, Dorinda put up this video on her Instagram that Hannah, her daughter, did like this fashion styling video. And I just think everyone should see it. And that's all I'll say. Okay. I think that's really like, that's good advice. It's big of me.
Starting point is 00:37:38 All right. Housewives recap. Let's start in order. Oh, see. I thought it was a great episode. I'm not going to lie. I need to go to Lake Arrowhead. I know. And that house was cute at first but i agreed with kelly like the longer i looked at it uh serial killer vibes it was nice from the outside and the big decks over the lake are
Starting point is 00:37:55 like the nicest part but the house inside was like a little scary i mean and then the bugs and the spiders like i'm out that was insane and of course it's like literally the one time gina gets the master like i thought that was so funny and i know i'm very hard on gina she's been good i have to say two things she was great this episode she had the most um incredible moment which i'm gonna get to in a second and to her hair looked awesome yeah it was her natural hair blown out and i was just happy to see it yeah and i have to give her credit because they had that you know kind of awkward uncomfortable conversation between bronwyn and kelly just talking about like the state of the world and the Black Lives Matter movement and some of those like historical statues coming down.
Starting point is 00:38:30 And it was getting really tense. And I kind of wish that they had like had a more civil discussion about it because it might have been like more interesting. But then they were just like being messy. But then Gina just stepped in and first of all, like simmered the argument and said the most poignant thing that I just was, like, so impressed by because she was talking about how she got arrested.
Starting point is 00:38:48 Yes. What was it, like, a year ago? And of course she was, like, terrified because she was, like, scared about her kids. But never once did she think that the police officer was ever going to hurt her. She was never afraid of the police officer. She was afraid of her own actions and the consequences.
Starting point is 00:38:59 And that if she were a black woman or a black man, like, that would have been so different. Maybe it would have been different. And the fact that it's a maybe is like I just thought I never expected you know and all of the shows we're watching now covering the Black Lives Matter movement I never expected Gina to say what I thought like to be like the most poignant thing like yeah she just didn't expect it from her and she really shut the conversation down and I'm I can't believe what I'm about to say but like Gina's a queen yep queen. Yep. She has queenie vibes.
Starting point is 00:39:25 Queenie vibes are emulating all around. Yes, I agree. I like that moment. But she said that in her confessional. And I just thought it was a very profound thing to say. She said the second thing in her confessional, saying it would have been different if she was a black. No, but she talked about her experience getting arrested.
Starting point is 00:39:39 And I love, you know, when people pull on personal experiences, especially ones that might have been traumatic. And I just thought it was brilliant. Like, really brilliant um and speaking of queenie vibes as it pertains to Gina Elizabeth Vargas is my queen and I absolutely love her and I feel like she and Kelly and Gina are like having the best time on this trip and Bronwyn Bronwyn shouldn't have been on this trip and to be honest like Bronwyn's presence on this season in a lot of different scenarios is kind of like polarizing. Yeah, but here's what I don't like about Bronwyn.
Starting point is 00:40:11 Like last week when everyone was getting together to talk shit about Elizabeth, she's like the big dog on campus. Like she's literally hosting the gatherings. Talking the most shit, you know, like laughing. Haha, when is my season? This, that. And then she goes to this weekend and I don't know, her like sidekicks aren't there to back her up and all of a sudden she's like cowering and has nothing to say I don't want to talk about Shannon when she's not here no and it's like
Starting point is 00:40:32 she's one person when she has like people behind her and then she's another one she has to stand on her own yeah and I just thought that was like a really fucking lame thing that was season one spineless yeah like Bronwyn I agree it was so lame when she literally did what I she talks like big shit yep when everybody's around echoing her but then like she can't have those same thoughts and feelings when the the odds aren't in her favor I know and I felt like badly because I was very sympathetic to her like she shouldn't have put her she shouldn't have gone on that trip like with Kelly and Elizabeth like they weren't even trying but if she didn't go on that trip then then she's an even bigger coward.
Starting point is 00:41:07 It's like, wow, you can't even be in the same room as the people that you talk mad shit about. I know. Without Shannon there to back you up. Yeah, I feel like Bronwyn got herself in a really bad position because she is being so open about her journey on sobriety and her marriage. And it's just like, it's really hard for her. But then she's also starting so much drama. And she's really being such a little potster that she has to show up to everything whereas like if
Starting point is 00:41:29 she was just you know her journey to sobriety taking it easy this season we I wouldn't have cared she didn't need to go but she needs to answer for her sins to Elizabeth yeah like if you're gonna start digging up paperwork which like you didn't have to do that then you got to show up and you have to answer nobody asked you to do that but I also really liked how Elizabeth and I feel like housewives never do this where she was like we were having a good time so I just didn't mention it like I feel like that's something that I would do it's like not everything needs to be confrontation on the show it does and I'm sure she will bring it up eventually but it's like it didn't need to be the first thing out of her mouth I agree but I'm I'm eagerly waiting for her to take the badoors down take broadman down like it really bothered me that
Starting point is 00:42:07 she did that elizabeth has been nothing but nice to all of these women and the fact that like they just don't understand her personal situation required them to like go and investigate like that's fucked up and i didn't like that and that's mean girl shit yeah it really is and the trip like when they were on the beach like paddleboarding stuff pathetic it literally looked like the worst housewives trip of all time. I couldn't agree more. A group of women like who did not want to be together in the middle of a pandemic when like everyone should just be home with their families. Like it was so like random.
Starting point is 00:42:34 Yeah. Kelly is like the worst for so many reasons, especially as it pertains to Bronwyn's sobriety. Like she just can't help herself and she's just being awful. But Kelly is reality television gold and here's why that she is on facetime with shannon bedore talking incredible shit about bronwyn and has absolutely no idea that bronwyn is standing right in front of her no like i was so like i was like look up look up i was like oh stop make a stop please stop it was fucking terrible like but that's why she's hilarious. Hilarious.
Starting point is 00:43:06 And it's not like when that happened, she wasn't like, oh my God, I'm so sorry. She's like, oh, Bronwyn's here. She walked away. Gotta go. Gotta go. Like, I was so shook. Whenever they kept going back to OC, I was like depressed.
Starting point is 00:43:15 And like, I really wanted to stay in like Arrowhead. But I thought what Emily was going through was so interesting. First of all, like, I felt so bad for her. Even before they took Shane to the hospital like she has COVID she's exhausted her husband is really really sick she's taking care of him all while taking care of how many kids does she have three or two three three little kids like I felt really bad for her and then it's like and you have to think of the time like now it's like
Starting point is 00:43:38 COVID we've lived with it for so long we know more about it it's not as scary but like when this is happening like this is peak you know confusion peak pandemic and she had to drop her husband off at the hospital he's like texting her like he's like it's like an every hour it's like a fight to survive I felt so bad for her and Emily's my queen and I was sad that she couldn't go on the trip and then things just went downhill so fast yeah my queen yeah I was praying for her no it was very sad but knowing that it turns out okay yes is it okay yeah um and I do think it's crazy that Shannon like didn't get it so far no right so far I don't know if she ends up getting it but in this moment in time she doesn't her and John don't have it
Starting point is 00:44:16 yeah also I guess next week like she's starting to like she's now mad at her kids because they got it and made her go quarantine with John and they're like annoying each other and she thinks she's gonna lose her relationship because like John's tired of her yeah which is like one don't blame your kids for that but two that's like a very real like issue quarantine I was actually thinking the same thing they were like sitting around all day just like not you know just it's not like the best situation like you never want to feel that way when you're like and the house looks small yeah yeah so I was like wow don't these people like get sick of their new boyfriends no I don't know how people do it so it's it looks like she'll be talking about that next week but Shannon like should be mad at her kids for like if if if I if Ben or someone in my home had like an autoimmune
Starting point is 00:44:58 disorder it was like very high risk you take incredibly different precautions than you do when you're two young people who are knock on wood like relatively healthy so the fact that like her kids were like running out and partying while living home with their mom like was irresponsible and she should be mad at them for that not for john yeah she's mad about the wrong thing yeah no i think she was mad about that like last week and now next week it looks like she's like mad that she's in this situation because of them where she has to spend so much time in close quarters with him and like it might put a damper on their relationship yeah um but all in all I thought it was actually a pretty interesting episode especially as it pertains
Starting point is 00:45:30 to like covering what was going on in the world at the time when with COVID like sometimes I find those like flashbacks like in Southern Charm and all these shows to be like a little traumatizing I just don't want to go back to that place but I thought how they did it this week was super interesting because there was a lot going on yeah Yeah. Also, when they're wearing those face shields and they forgot to take the film off. I did that. I did the same thing. And when Gina was like, I thought it was frosted. I literally thought the same thing.
Starting point is 00:45:53 I didn't even question. I was like, OK, so it's a little blurry. Yeah. By the way, I literally did the same thing. And then you came to the office wearing it. And I'm like, Jackie, there is a peel thing that you have to take off. No, I was like, I love this thing so much. I don't
Starting point is 00:46:05 care if I can't see right no totally that was so funny so so much so much of it was like um like funny and relatable in a sense and I didn't find it so triggering this time yes it was funny and relatable now for Real Housewives of Salt Lake City honestly nothing happened it seems like we're gearing up for um like a big Sundance week next week but I did find it really interesting how they keep saying Lisa is like the queen of Sundance. And I wanted to see her actually at Sundance, like in her element. And to be honest, I thought it was going to be a joke,
Starting point is 00:46:31 but she was like doing real parties. That was McMillions. I know. That was cool. That wall of like peel. That was cool. That's like a big ass documentary that came out. She did the WME talent agency party.
Starting point is 00:46:41 Like she was legit. Yeah, she was legit. And a lot of times. But I still am unclear on what she does. Is she a party a party planner oh that part I don't know because she described it and then I realized I had tuned it out and then I was like I don't want to rewind because it came back right after commercials yeah I don't wind up watching more commercials and so I was like maybe I'll catch it next time I just think she's like one of those and baby was like branded event manager yeah like event coordinator yeah I don't think she's a party planner but yeah
Starting point is 00:47:05 she does like the brand integration at events she's like an event coordinator a brand integration coordinator lifestyle yeah um events so I have I'm struggling with Salt Lake City and maybe you can help me understand I love Meredith like I think she's a queen but I can't really put into words like how much I don't care about her son period her son's clothing line with his name written on it when his name literally carries no weight and three her son's fashion show like and to be honest at first like I think her son Brooks like got a little ahead of himself because at first he was like funny and sassy and now he's just straight up annoying and thirsty no annoying thirsty and just annoying like when he's crying because his dad's not there and it's like come on and I do feel bad I don't want to like speak ill of someone's kid when Meredith oh yes but no he has inserted himself but also
Starting point is 00:47:59 he is confessional like he is holding a snowflake like yeah he has put himself in the ring and wants to be talked about on the podcast. Well, he's thirsty. And yes, he is thirsty. And I think that he's very much interested in everything that comes along with being a housewife, including this part. I agree. And I just, I was not, I was not here for any of it last night. Except when they were getting ready, I really wanted to like kill the kid because
Starting point is 00:48:25 he was like i'm late i'm like you have this opportunity get up and go pack your suitcase mom where's my slippers mom what are you five years old you're 19 years old find your own fucking shoes but then when the alarm went off and the toilet overflowed like that was actually funny oh my god no to me it was so annoying like because bruno was like up because the dog was barking i literally had to lower my volume to like three because bruno was like what the fuck's going on no but that was so funny that is something that would happen in my house like oh got a big work opportunity toilet overflows yeah no I felt stressed for Meredith but I just felt like he was just not being helpful like not taking advantage of the opportunity and also like him crying because his dad missed his first park city fashion
Starting point is 00:49:00 show when it's really just tracksuits with his name on it like any like uh no and it's like you have no wait no let me say one thing no this is what I was trying to say before I felt worse for Meredith when she was describing it she felt so she was yes felt so guilty that she even put her son in a situation where her his dad wouldn't be able to be there for him but it's like this situation just isn't it but Brooks is like a little bit of a brat because Brooks hi you have the privilege of dropping out of college living at home and starting your own fashion line with like your parents money because your dad has to go to Ohio and start this company. So it's like, either take the... Take it all or none of it.
Starting point is 00:49:32 So it's like, it was just so, I'm like, he's, like, crying. I'm like, oh, all the money you poured into my fashion line, and, like, now you can't come. It's like, well, he can't come because he's working to pour more money into your fashion line. But it's like, if you're so concerned about your dad seeing your fashion line, like, have a show in the living room. Like, this is about everyone else this is about
Starting point is 00:49:47 like the world the city seeing it the exposure like it's not about mommy and daddy no a hundred percent like and that's and that's like a telltale sign like maybe you're not ready for a fashion line because all you care about is your chest okay all you care about is like your dad not like the buyers yeah like he's not caring about the buyers no no I don't work in fashion but I actually briefly did and I know that it's all about the buyers it is and it's like yeah I don't want to like go too hard on him no me too because he's cute and funny where he's like gluing on the like labels and he's like sad about his dad I'm like get to fucking work no Park City Fashion Week no and I have to say we always rail on like obscure cities having like their first annual
Starting point is 00:50:25 fashion week like OC when it was on a boat was like so pathetic like I literally could have cried myself to sleep and who was it that started yelling at the director that random woman Kathy Kelly Kelly got into it because this this woman Kathy who's like a mom she was like coming for the kids yeah she was coming for the kids that was crazy um but I have to say like of all the sad fashion weeks we saw even like at New York Fashion Week when some of the New York Housewives and Beverly Hills Housewives go and it's really sad Park City's Fashion Week didn't look so terrible I have to say it didn't compare to some of the other things that we've seen but it actually compared to Kyle and Shahida actually
Starting point is 00:50:57 got me thinking about fashion weeks in general and I think that like the Real Housewives fashion the Real Housewives franchise is absolutely destroying fashion weeks around the world globally I couldn't agree more because now the phrase fashion week is just it's so cringy it's tacky because it's like it's Kyle and Cheetah yeah no it's it's everything it's the boat it's Brooks like now it's like housewives kids like Bronwyn's kid was a designer now they're all modeling they're all designers like it's pathetic it's pathetic um but back to like the other 95% of the episode it was kind of boring like honestly nothing happened Winnie had that party for her kids and that was so fun so much like she's so sweet is so sweet she loves her husband she's so positive she like will be a good friend to Jen while also not talking shit about Mary like
Starting point is 00:51:46 get you a friend who can do both she might see you over for like a tequila and hot tub night like is that what they do in Utah it was just it was beautiful it was beautiful I really think that Whitney was like the MVP of the episode uh Heather is really getting she's so fucking funny but also them together like when they went to get drinks and like Whitney was just like being the biggest cheerleader and Heather was being so honest and Heather was like every time I go for it like my hand gets slapped and Whitney's like keep going like yeah it was just so cute but Jen Shaw was on um Watched Happens Live and she said the next morning Heather showed up with the dudes like they obviously like got it on and I was just so happy for Heather oh my god that's really great I love Heather
Starting point is 00:52:18 the um introduction of the Vanderpump Rules cast was like weird and I'm not sure why they were there like there was no drama but they were just weird and I'm not sure why they were there like there was no drama but they were just there I enjoyed it but I think they were just like at Sundance actually right and then there was maybe like one of the producers like works on right rules and they just went to the party and I enjoyed it yeah me too yeah Jen Shaw like has to start throwing parties at other places yeah but but the parties that were in last night's episode like were legit the party for Whitney's husband like that house was so fucking nice stunning stunning Jen Shah's party
Starting point is 00:52:49 looked lit as hell like these are real parties not like sad like what we've gotten to in like New York of what a party looks like is like the eight people in a room and like Mindy miss what's her name Misty like the housewives like a friends of housewives, like Barbara. It's always like the same ragtag and then like a bunch of gays. Like it's always the same group of people and it's never like an organized event. It's always like an empty event space with like a balloon.
Starting point is 00:53:13 A hundred percent. So I agree. This was like a dynamic party with different people from different walks of life. Lots of men, women. Like there was just a lot of people. There was just like people
Starting point is 00:53:22 who like aren't paid to be there and don't work for the cast members. it was yeah they're not on the payroll like exactly and they haven't been to every event on the season so far yeah this was just like people in town start looking closely at new york like everyone who's in the background of every party is that they're paid extras no they're at this like no they're like the publicist and the yes yeah no i know what you mean yeah It's like literally the housewives and their crews. Publicists. And their crews.
Starting point is 00:53:47 So it's all the crews in one. Yeah. It's sad. Yeah, but these parties are not sad. Like, they're very legitimate. And yes. And Heather found a man. And Heather, yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:55 And that's why it's like at these New York parties, they can never find a man because, first of all, the only guys that are there are their gay friends. And the straight guys that are there are. And the scarf guy. And it's the same two guys. That guy and Harry Dubin. Yeah. So it's like, why do all the New York women only fuck the same guys? It's like, because they're the only guys are there. And the scarf guy. And it's the same two guys. That guy and Harry Dubin. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:05 So it's like, why do all the New York women only fuck the same guys? It's like, because they're the only guys who show up to the parties. Yeah. Yeah. So I'm so happy for Heather. So happy for her. No, it's still just, it's so enjoyable. And in terms of Jen Shah and Mary, I'm turning more towards Jen Shah.
Starting point is 00:54:21 I think there was a few things that Mary didn't say in this episode that I just found to be unreasonable. towards Jen Shah. I think there was a few things that Mary didn't say in this episode that I just found to be unreasonable. And I like... She said her grandfather's
Starting point is 00:54:28 brother's daughter works for her. So they're related. She's worked for her for years. But she doesn't know what she does in her personal life
Starting point is 00:54:35 outside the tasks she does for her at home. Yeah. That was weird. That was so weird. And... But I did think the conversation
Starting point is 00:54:42 that Mary and Jen had at Whitney's husband's party was productive. And I hope that it's like we can actually move on from this. I know. But I thought we were going to move on from it at the end of the hospital thing. I know. I know. I'm just holding out hope like once again that we can really move on. Yeah, me too.
Starting point is 00:54:56 All in all, it was a great episode. Yeah, it was. And it was a great week of Housewives. Yeah, tonight we have Southern Charm. Yeah, that's it, right? Yeah, I think so.
