Starting point is 00:00:01 Good morning, Millennials! Welcome back to the Morning Toast, the Morning Zoom. We are here virtually live with you in spirit and in audio and video. Hey, Claude! Hey, guys! Hope everyone's doing well. Happy Thursday. Happy last day of Passover. I went on a major shopping spree yesterday in anticipation of all the delicious snacks that have leavened bread that I'm going to eat today. First up, cookie dough. Do I have an oven? No, but I have a toaster oven and I read on the internet that you can make cookies in the toaster oven. And then I also got pizza bagels and then I got tacos. I'm just like having a fiesta tonight. Amigas, cheetahs, friends for life. Oh my God. That sounds so, so fabulous. I'm so excited for Passover to break. I have a home chef meal that I was about to make the night before Passover started.
Starting point is 00:00:50 Um, but then I forgot to make it and then it was Passover. It's like a deconstructed lasagna. You were making fun of me for it. Um, and I hope the ingredients are still, I hope the ingredients are still fresh because I'm going to be making that tonight. And I'm also recording a Patreon day in the life of quarantine with me. So you guys will get to see whatever I decide to break my Passover fast on. The whole point of a lasagna is to be constructed. So the sense of a deconstructed lasagna makes no sense today. I mean, here you are just like yucking my yums and I'm excited about it
Starting point is 00:01:23 and you just can't be excited for me and that hurts. No, I'm excited here you are just like yucking my yums and I'm excited about it and you just can't be excited for me and that hurts. No, I'm excited for you. I just like can't get behind whoever like whatever sommelier like chef that HelloFresh hired to like come up with these like brand new like young fresh ingredients. Like I just can't get behind his idea like thinking that deconstructed lasagna was like a smart choice. You know what it is actually? They try and make dishes that you can make with like,
Starting point is 00:01:45 they expect that you don't have every single pan and casserole dish in your thing. And lasagna, you need that dish that I don't have. What is it called? Where it's like a clear casserole dish. It's a casserole dish.
Starting point is 00:01:56 I don't have that. So if they gave me a lasagna, I wouldn't be able to make it. They made it so that I can make it in my pans, which is very thoughtful because it's for the amateur chef. Jackie, that's beautiful.
Starting point is 00:02:10 Thank you, Claudia. I put my heart into it. Okay. If anyone ever gets to see my comedy special, you will understand all these weird references. You know what's so funny is I was reading. I was up all night. This quarantine, like I cannot fucking sleep. You were reading?
Starting point is 00:02:23 No. Oh, sorry. quarantine like I cannot fucking sleep you were reading no oh sorry I was reading Facebook posts in the group um and in tipsy toasters someone commented um like a day ago and like literally there was one comment but she was like does anyone else feel like Claudia and Jackie have changed and like in the past few weeks some girl was like what do you mean she's like I just feel like there's a level to the show that like I don't understand anymore like. Like so many inside jokes. And I feel like a lot of that has to do with us quoting my comedy special because nobody's seen it, but like we know that's beautiful. Um, so, and I've actually been getting a lot of questions like about steamy lexicon.
Starting point is 00:02:56 And I think maybe it might behoove us to do like a podcast segment where we take questions, like explaining what people aren't understanding. Okay. I could do that. Maybe we'll do that. No, tomorrow we have like so much to recap. Maybe we'll do that on like a Tuesday. You know? Yeah, just a mundane Wednesday. Well, Wednesday's Steer Toasters. And yesterday's Steer Toasters.
Starting point is 00:03:15 Had me crying. I literally was up in bed putting it on my TV, making Ben watch the Carlos Santana thing. Oh, my God. It's so funny. It's so funny. I feel that, well, I'm glad that that's how we changed just because we're getting even more like into our own inside jokes and not just like, you know, the fame has gone to our heads, like all this. Oh, you would love to
Starting point is 00:03:36 say that too. Well, literally I was up all night just like reading stuff about myself. That's what I do when I can't sleep. And then like, and and then like I can't sleep anymore I almost got to a point almost where I was on reddit okay oh my god why were you doing that I just couldn't sleep and like there was like there was such it was dry on the internet like there was nothing for me to really look at on instagram and ben was asleep so I couldn't watch tiktoks and then I was just like searching like Twitter and stuff. And then I was like, oh, maybe if I just press this. I was just looking for something stimulating and I wasn't finding it. And like hearing what people have to say about me is often quite stimulating. Interesting.
Starting point is 00:04:19 Well, did anyone say anything about me? No, I didn't go there. Oh, okay. Cool. But it's been a I've like went down that rabbit hole and it's like really hard for me like to come out of it. So I really purposely like try not to let myself go to places like that. And I almost like had a slip up, but I didn't, I'm good. Oh my God. That's so dark. I was so stimulated last night because we recorded our episode of
Starting point is 00:04:44 the redheads. It was so good. It's like an hour and 30 minutes almost of us just like talking about this book that we all loved. But I put together our four audio files. So it really, the audio was like such premium quality. It was really a labor of love. I, we recorded the episode at five o'clock and I finished editing it at 1130. So I was literally working on it for like six hours straight.
Starting point is 00:05:03 So please listen to it. Oh, and for those who are wondering why Jackie and I are back to Zoom, we have made the very difficult but necessary decision to temporarily stop filming. It just is what's best for everyone. And while we are sad because we know a lot of people like live for the live stream and really have come to rely on it in these quarantine times, we just have to do what's best for our company, for us, and that's doing Zoom. So we will let you know when we're back in studio, but it won't be for a little bit.
Starting point is 00:05:30 Yeah, Zoom's not that bad. I feel like the episode on Monday, people enjoyed. We'll get better with our audio, hopefully. I mean, now that I'm using a microphone, that should be good. And if it's not good enough, we'll try something else. It's not good enough? I did a podcast with Taylor Strecker. I don't know if it came out yet,
Starting point is 00:05:47 but it was literally like sensational audio. But that's also because you were in our studio. No, but she wasn't. So we could be using our podcast equipment. The key is to record your podcast. If anyone's a podcaster looking for how to make quality content in these quarantine times, it's to FaceTime with the person that you're podcasting with.
Starting point is 00:06:06 Both of you have to wear headphones. And then you have to use your own podcast equipment to record on a totally separate device. So like a Zoom or your computer. And it's okay. So if this doesn't work out, I have good ideas for tomorrow and next week. But I think this should be okay. Well, then it would be a good podcast, but how would we get a video for YouTube?
Starting point is 00:06:24 Oh, we wouldn't. Or we could record the screen, the FaceTime, but I don't know. I don't know about that. Okay. So we're going to try and make this work. Without further ado, it is a very slow news day, but we did not want to leave you without a show. So let's just get right into the fast four stories that you need to know before you wake up and take a bite out of your morning toast. Okay. Quickly, I'm feeling very vulnerable, like having my bedroom on display. Do you know what I mean? Like I had to make my bed and stuff. No, I moved to the bedroom as well because I was filming in our quote unquote home office
Starting point is 00:06:56 and the lighting was just not good. I have so much white noise coming from my AC unit, which I've never even turned on in my life and it's just always roaring. Yeah. You got to turn it off. That's the life of a podcaster. You always start sweating when you podcast. I don't turn it on. I've never turned it on. It just makes noise. It sits there and like hums. So I came to the bedroom so I can be in front of my vanity. Yeah, it does. It does. I don't use it. I even Peloton in that room and I don't turn the AC on because I want it to feel like soul cycle. So like, Oh my God,
Starting point is 00:07:25 you're insane. I've never, I've literally never turned the air conditioning on in that room. Yet the machine is finding a way to be heard. That's crazy. But I think my lighting is better in here. I'm further away from Zach. So I'm not like,
Starting point is 00:07:38 you know, embarrassing him on his work calls talking about. And it looks cute. Santana. And does it, I don't know. My bedroom is just like not it. I think I need to move. Okay. Let's get into the first story because Michael Che is paying rent for the New York City neighbors of his grandmother who died of coronavirus. This is such a sweet
Starting point is 00:07:58 story. Michael Che is paying homage to his grandmother, Martha, who'd recently died of coronavirus complications in the kindest way possible. The SNL star will pay one month's rent for 160 residents in his grandmother's public housing complex in New York City. Quote, it's crazy to me that residents of public housing are still expected to pay their rent when so many New Yorkers can't even work, he wrote on Instagram. Obviously, I can't offer much help by myself, but in the spirit and memory of my late grandmother, I'm paying one month's rent for all 160 apartments in the NYCHA building she lived in. That's so sweet, but really shedding light on a much larger issue that public housing residents should not have to pay rent during the quarantine. And to be honest, like, you know, I'm not one for politics. And I think
Starting point is 00:08:43 that Governor Cuomo is doing such a fabulous job really taking New York, you know, and making it into a livable place again. But this is falling on the hands of Bill de Blasio, the mayor, because this is a mayoral thing. And this is a New York City thing. Right. It's not a New York State thing. Like Governor Cuomo is in Albany, like for the state, like there are things outside Manhattan and Bill de Blasio is supposed to be in charge of Manhattan. And he has been totally useless in trying to help Governor Cuomo and like just trying to like alleviate New York City as one of the biggest hubs in the world of coronavirus. And to me, this is just like such an easy thing that should be taken care of. And here, yet again, being disappointed by de Blasio, cannot wait for him to be out of
Starting point is 00:09:19 office. I'll literally take no. It's so crazy. Like he doesn't even have to do anything or come up with any ideas on his own during the pandemic just like listen to the people follow Governor Cuomo and just like follow what people are doing that people like you know yeah and you know what if I was a politician I would actually use this um quarantine and and whole pandemic to my advantage because people are really really struggling like they're looking for the first time ever like i've literally never thought in my life like i need to
Starting point is 00:09:48 turn to my governor i need to turn to my mayor but people are really turning to like their leaders and bill de blasio is like a disgrace towards politics he's a disgrace towards leaders everywhere like those shoes were meant for a beautiful woman and if that's the case like he shouldn't have had them he shouldn't be wearing them because he is nothing of the sort. It's so fucking crazy. This city is in shambles. I can't believe, like, we're the greatest city in the world. I just, I can't even get into it.
Starting point is 00:10:13 It's, it's a period. By the way, people who say New York is the greatest city in the world haven't been here in, like, 30 years. No, it used to be, like, fabulous. Like, when you watch Breakfast at Tiffany's. Yeah, fabulous. It's not that anymore. It's rap, tour, and it's shit. I i think in the last 10 it goes in and out i feel like new
Starting point is 00:10:30 york is always like up and down just like anything else it's a ramona coaster but i feel like in the last 10 years it's really gone to shit like even when it was like gossip girl when we were in high school like things were popping you know maybe just because we were we like it was a nice place to be and there were so many restaurants and it was clean like you can tell where New York is at in terms of like leadership and just based on the cleanliness of course just take a walk down a street like you'll know what's good okay this next story is so crazy I didn't see anyone writing about it except for of course pop crave news but fashion nova is trending on Twitter after the retail company sent a mass text to their
Starting point is 00:11:08 customers promoting the spending of stimulus checks on their products. So they sent a push notification to people who opt in for Fashion Nova push notifications that said, when the stimulus deposit hits, save up to 80% off site-wide, use code stay in 80. Okay. Like, no. I know, you know what? This is not what the government intended.
Starting point is 00:11:35 No, but I do have to say three things. One, this is incredibly out of touch and like borderline insensitive to people who are like waiting on this check to like pay their rent, put food on the table. Like it's just so out of touch, I can't even. But it is my understanding that the whole concept of stimulus checks is to stimulate the economy and like invest in businesses and therefore Fashion Nova would be considered a business. Like I get it. But the third thing is like, I just want to know like how many people had to like approve
Starting point is 00:11:59 this for it to go through. Like Fashion Nova is actually a pretty big company. Like they, they're fast fashion. They make a lot of money. Like they definitely hire a lot of people. I would just love to know, like how many people thought this was a good idea? You know what? I don't even think it's that. I think that whoever does their social and whoever does their push notifications does a really good job. I think that person has pretty much absolute power when it comes to what goes out. I think that that person spends a lot of time on the internet, on TikTok and got like, just assume this was a good idea because this is the zeitgeist, but it just really misses the mark in terms of people who need that money not to spend it on fast fashion that employs slave laborers and instead to
Starting point is 00:12:34 put food on their table and take care of their families. Yeah, like they should be putting food on the table, not buying a spandex dress that literally will rip the second you put it around one thigh. Yeah, it's just, it's not it. It's like, it's honestly a really funny fuck up. Um, but yeah, I mean they're, they, but Fashion Nova is so controversial in general. Like the, I don't even think this even scratches the surface of what's wrong with them as a company. You read that, that article that they literally pay their workers like $2 an hour, like below minimum wage.
Starting point is 00:13:10 It's like slave labor. In America or like in a sweatshop? In California. Ooh. Not that it makes any difference if they were abroad, but it's just a lot of companies. I watched in, in one of my classes in college,
Starting point is 00:13:26 you made us watch this documentary about how they took like five European, like young bloggers who were like really spoiled and took them to a sweatshop in Cambodia that makes clothing for Zara, H&M. And they made them work in the sweatshop for one day and these kids were like dying from the circumstances. And it was a total expose on the whole fast fashion industry. That's crazy. Yeah, but I feel like this is not going to affect Fashion Nova. I agree. No, not at all.
Starting point is 00:13:58 They're used to controversy. Honestly, this probably boosted sales for them. So whatever works. Yeah, I don't think this will affect them at all. It's honestly just kind of funny. Um, but whatever. Okay. Another brand with a faux pas that's making it right is Reese Witherspoon. Who's donating to teacher aid organization after Draper James flap. So I didn't hear about this, but it turns out, uh, Draper James this week caught flack for a giveaway that
Starting point is 00:14:25 backfired when it's an underestimated demand. I guess it was a giveaway for a free dress for teachers. A million teachers entered the contest for a free dress and the company was only offering 250. So I guess they caught some backlash. I mean, how could they, a million, that's crazy. I had no idea that this brand was so popular. Was the premise of the giveaway to give one away to everyone who entered or just like a contest? I think just a contest, but... So, what's the problem? And how does everyone know how many people entered? That's how giveaways work.
Starting point is 00:15:01 Ten people enter, one of them wins. Education professionals were directed to an online application form with a deadline and told that winners would be notified the following week and send their dresses while supplies last. But while Draper James' initial announcement was well-intentioned and met with much fanfare, they seemed to underestimate how many teachers would take them up on the offer. There are more than 3 million public school teachers in the U.S. alone.
Starting point is 00:15:21 So maybe it was like if you entered, teachers who assume they were entering a giveaway rather than a raffle are sharing their frustration on social media. So I thought a giveaway is different than a raffle though because it's not just like, oh, a few. It's like we're giving away. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:15:43 250 is a giveaway. I'm sorry. In my opinion, there's nothing wrong with this contest. That's how contests and giveaways and sweepstakes work. It wouldn't be exciting if everyone won. Of course, I would love to get a dress, but that's not how the company – that's not how the giveaway works. Why are they apologizing?
Starting point is 00:16:00 This makes no sense. I must be listening to them. Well, she's – Reese Witherspoon made a donation to the nonprofit DonorsChoose to support three southern cities, support teachers in three southern cities. The donation from Reese and her fashion line, Draper James, will support all of our highest need teachers in New Orleans, Atlanta, and Nashville, and more throughout the country. That's fabulous.
Starting point is 00:16:19 I love a donation. I just need to know what controversy was really there that spiraled. She didn't just donate for no reason. You go through a controversy and you donate. That's how being a celebrity works. I feel like there's something about, I'll read the article again. I feel like there's something we are missing as to why this is so. If they're guilty of something, every brand, including the toast,
Starting point is 00:16:39 is guilty of doing a giveaway. Giveaways are meant to be where winners are selected. I'm not understanding. And if this is like the leveled of heightened cancel culture we've got to, then I'm shook. Okay. This is what the angry teachers were tweeting. Out of 535 teachers on a social media page on Facebook, not even one got a free Draper James dress. What in the what? They all received codes for either 20 to 30% off discount codes. They said, can't even afford the dresses with a discount. Great marketing ploy. Another one. Wow. Draper James clearly doesn't know how much teachers make. We love teachers.
Starting point is 00:17:15 Here's 30% off our ridiculously expensive dresses. If I'm spending a hundred dollars on an everyday dress, it better also grade essays. Okay. I'm still not understanding. an everyday dress it better also grade essays okay i'm still not understanding so the teachers are upset but you gotta protect the teachers you have to protect the teachers but so are they mad that they didn't win the contest or that they never were able to win the contest there's a difference but if you didn't win uh that's how it works i'm very confused i'm sure it's frustrating to them to have not won, but like just because does entering this specific contest guarantee winning it?
Starting point is 00:17:53 I don't know. I don't know. And just because this one Facebook group got mad, Reese Witherspoon had to make a donation. It sounds like a, like a subgroup of people who hate the toast. No, totally.
Starting point is 00:18:05 I have no idea. That's a really the toast. No, totally. I have no idea. That's a really crazy story. Yeah. Well, anyway, you know what? At the end of the day, more money for charity. The teachers are benefiting, and we love to benefit the teachers. A thousand percent taking the load off of them. So whatever weird turn of events,
Starting point is 00:18:21 I'm going to make a sizable donation to Donor's Choice. Like, here for it. I love exploiting a celebrity like controversy just to make some money for charity. The charity world, man. It's just crazy.
Starting point is 00:18:33 It is really crazy. Our fourth and final story is that Kanye West is on the cover of GQ. Oh, my God. So, I haven't read the article yet and I want to read it
Starting point is 00:18:43 because I hate when people try and sum up what Kanye said and it's like, that's not what he had said, you know? But so I read Kanye West is on the cover of GQ and a tank. And I was like, oh, like he's wearing a tank top. Like who cares? And then I was like, I saw the cover. I'm like, that's not a tank top. I was like, but it's a tank. It's literally like a tiny tank. He loves a tank moment. Yeah, I didn't read the article either. I'm just like happy for him and whatever like he's spewing.
Starting point is 00:19:13 Sometimes I just can't, literally can't keep up with the Kardashians. Like there's too much. I know, but it's just like he's sharing his, in the article, it's called Inside Kanye West Vision for the Future. First he changed the sound of popular music. Then he revolutionized fashion and sneakers. Now Kanye West is redesigning the very building blocks of family life, food, clothing, and shelter. And he's claimed thousands of acres in Wyoming as a test site for his ideas.
Starting point is 00:19:37 GQ followed Kanye from Cody to Calabasas, from Cabo San Lucas to Paris to see it all firsthand. And to talk to him about his next album, His Altered Ego. Oh, that's interesting. As opposed to Alter Ego, Altered Ego, because he changed his ego. And his renewed faith in God. Sounds interesting. Sounds just like, yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:55 Honestly, it must have been super fun for whatever intern journalist got to travel with Kanye from Cabo San Lucas to Paris. Do you think that they put him on the plane or they made him fly commercial? I think they put him on the plane. They're pretty good about putting people on the plane unless Kourtney's coming and then the trainers and the security have to fly commercial. Totally.
Starting point is 00:20:16 Kardashian's on tonight. Oh, yes. I was Real Housewives of New York. I'm hoping we're going to get better episodes of both because this past week just didn't do it for me in terms of New York Housewives or Keeping Up with the Kardashians. I have a high bar, especially after watching this stellar, sensational, inspired, and fabulous premiere of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. That's my level now, and I don't feel like I should watch anything less than that. Yeah, so I feel like that's a great segue to recap Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,
Starting point is 00:20:47 which is really like the reason for the season. The reason we did an episode today because it was oozing fabulosity. I just, I've never been so excited. Every time Beverly Hills comes back, like I get chills, like I'm excited. But this, in my opinion, was one of the best season premieres of any franchise ever. Okay, here's the thing. I like kind of agree with you, but I feel like it was just the best cause we were so excited, but when you break it down to its essential bits and because we love all the women, like it all revolved around this Kyle Richards, New York fashion week fashion
Starting point is 00:21:15 show that was like, so season one, I feel like anytime a housewife does a fashion show, it's like so janky. And so like season one, season two housewives. And I just couldn't believe that season 10 of real housewives of Beverly Hills. Like Kyle is taking us back there with some janky ass fashion show where her daughters and her cast mates are walking. Okay. Yes, I agree. Like we are so above just in Beverly Hills and the fact that we're on season 10, like we're above a fashion show put together with scotch tape. I totally agree. But in Kyle's defense, like it was as good as it could have been. Like she did get pure 59 at New York fashion week. She had a full production like Kyle and Paris and Nikki were there. Like it was the highest level housewives fashion show by a mile. And I didn't think it was so janky. Yes. I'm like over a fashion show in a housewives like franchise because it's so silly. Like it's never
Starting point is 00:22:06 been real, but it was, it was at the level that I expected it to be at. I don't know. It was just, and even seeing the behind the scenes and it's like, she hasn't even seen the garments. It was like, what is going on? Why is Kyle Richards like putting her name on this? Why is she always doing these collaborations? Like there's something that I'm not understanding. she was like talking with Dorit like I'm not just gonna put my name on something like that I don't believe in and it's like why are you even in this position like you used to have a clothing store I I just I didn't understand I actually I did I do agree that the fashion show came out as best as it possibly could um but there was something so season one honestly I can't explain it I didn't until you mentioned it
Starting point is 00:22:47 like I didn't really get like all bent out of shape over it like you're right like it is it is below them for sure but like it didn't impact the way that I felt or like the the episode because to me there was so much to the episode including the fashion show but I just I don't even know where to start let's start with our two new ladies because I absolutely like even saying the words fashion show, like I feel so corny. Like I'm, I can't, and you know who's the only person I'll take a fashion show from now, from now on, on the Real Housewives, honestly, like the only one who makes me feel something with their fashion show. Who? Dorit. Melissa Gorga. No, Melissa Gorga. I love her fashion show. It's like family. She is who she is. She's like running down the runway, like being herself. She actually owns
Starting point is 00:23:29 a clothing store. Like I like her version of a fashion show, but when anyone else is like, what, bringing it to New York fashion week, like, oh my God, maybe I just don't go to enough fashion week stuff and that's actually how it's done. But just, I can't with a fashion show. Okay. I really didn't think it was that big of a deal. It makes me feel like, it makes me feel like when we were like eight years old and we used to walk down our hallway and be like fashion show that's what Melissa Gorgas was like Kyle's had a production like it had there was a lot of press there I was actually invited and couldn't make it and like was lamenting the whole episode that I wasn't there um and why couldn't you make it I've had someone to do it. Like, I was, I had another commitment. What could have been, like, more popping than that?
Starting point is 00:24:08 Honestly. Something. I remember, like, being upset that I wasn't able to go because I knew they were filming. Damn. That sucks. Okay, let's talk about the two new women because Garcelle Bouvier was just everything. Like, she very seamlessly, like, even though it was, she didn't really know anyone except for Denise. Everyone was super welcoming. Um, I just, I have such a good feeling about her. Like she's funny. She didn't like sometimes when somebody joins and I think this happened a little bit with Teddy Mellencamp, like they're just so eager to like be a part of the
Starting point is 00:24:38 group that they're very much like a people pleaser and they don't really add much to conversation until they get comfortable. But Garcelle is very much like a force. And I think a lot of the women like respected her vibe, especially Erika Jayne. And I could see a very powerful friendship between the two. I totally agree. I loved her energy. I love that she like didn't pretend like she didn't know who these people are, but she's still getting to know them. She's not just like making assumptions about them based on what they wear,
Starting point is 00:25:01 like some other people. Sutton is like the woe-diest woad I've ever woaded you know what I have to I have to say I thoroughly disliked Sutton but not for the reasons that one might think like I just I I'm 100 sure that like production was asking her questions like what do you think of Teddy's outfit like I don't think she's generally like that like just going around and being mean about people's outfits I'm sure what she said was her truth, but I just think she was provoked saying that. What I really disliked about her was that, like, I don't know, if she's as rich as everyone says
Starting point is 00:25:31 she is, like, that's just not how rich people act. Like, even when she got to go to Dolce & Gabbana's house and get dressed by them, like, and it was obviously, like, a very prestigious thing that happens to her a lot. She was just being so braggy about it, like, and so ostentatious, like not, not gracious and not like, I just, I just felt like if that was something that happens for her regularly, like, and she was a really, really rich person,
Starting point is 00:25:55 people like that would act differently. Like they would act with more grace. She was just being so show offy and so braggy, like to Lisa Rinna and for the cameras. Like it was just giving me like a really bad vibe that she's like the worst type of rich person interesting yeah I'm gonna reserve actual like judgment of her until we get to know her a little better because right now we're only like we haven't really had oh no we did have a confessional with her but I want to see her home life and like I want to get to know her maybe there's more to her life but this was just not a good debut episode considering like Garcelle was there and just like showed you how it's done. Um, it was just a little clunky and you know what, maybe like this explains why she doesn't have a diamond. Maybe she's not
Starting point is 00:26:36 getting one because it seems like with all the drama about to take off, like if she doesn't ingratiate herself in the group quickly, she's going to get left behind because like we're turning to Denise soon. Yeah. Also, I was getting the vibe that she like knew the housewife's formula and was just like saying and doing things because she wants to be a housewife,
Starting point is 00:26:54 which is the worst type of mentality you can come in with. And I do think that like she starts petty fights and like is a little nuts and it comes off inauthentic. And I think that she might end up not being a housewife just because she's not good at it. Yeah. And the the other women like she might have been able to be a housewife in another city but the real housewives of Beverly Hills are just on another level like my girl Dorit like was she extra precious this episode or was it just me? Um she was a little bitchy about the fashion show like she literally went to one meeting
Starting point is 00:27:25 and claimed that the show wouldn't have gone on without her. No, she was a little bitchy in her confessional, but not in real time, which makes me feel like something might happen between her and Kyle to like make her talk like so negatively. Also, Kyle was like tweeting shady, like she was live tweeting the episode and just like being shady,
Starting point is 00:27:43 especially about the things that Dorit said, like taking credit for all of Kyle and like the production Tracy's team's work. I know, but the fact that Kyle was like beefing with her production team, it was just very season one. And you know what? That was funny.
Starting point is 00:27:59 It was very real Housewives of Orange County when they had the fashion show on the boat. I happen to think that was hilarious when she got a phone call and they were like, Tracy said she wants to stay away from you today. I thought that was hilarious because that woman, Tracy, was like being so angry at the meeting at Chahita's before. I didn't have like that reaction to the fashion show that you did, but I totally understand and respect why you did.
Starting point is 00:28:20 Yeah, but I will say, ultimately, I really liked a lot of the clothes. I completely agreed with garcelle that erica was in the wrong outfit i loved when dorit went to the um showroom or whatever the closet um when she put on that uh like trench that like trench but it kind of looks like like your pajamas vibe um i absolutely loved it so i really do like a lot of the clothes i'm excited to see where this goes for Kyle because that really is her signature style. I just wish there was a way to showcase your new fashion line without having a fashion show. Yeah, I agree. I thought the fashion
Starting point is 00:28:55 line was actually pretty cute. While not everything was for me, I could see Kyle Richards wearing everything. And so for her to put her face, her name to that, I understood why she was like alpha clement when like Shahida was out making ugly yellow mustard tops. Yeah. Yeah. I agree. And also Sutton like respected the clothes as well. And so did Garcelle. And I feel like it actually was good stuff. I wonder where it's sold. I wonder where you could get it. I feel like you would actually look like really good in a lot of that stuff. Thank you. Also really really quickly i did a little research on um sudden strack's husband because lisa was like he's a hedge fund money money money baseball teams and i found his like net worth being at 690 000 so no it's obviously not real but like
Starting point is 00:29:40 just makes you think i thought you were gonna say 6 say 690 million. And then I was like, oh. When I read it, I assumed it said 690 million. And then it said 690,000. Interesting. But like, if they own two baseball teams, then shouldn't they be billionaires? Yeah, no, by the way, if you own a baseball team, like you are rich before because you have to buy the baseball team. Like, nobody starts small with their baseball team and then gets rich.
Starting point is 00:30:06 No, she's definitely gets two of them. Right? No, she's up there, but I don't know. The baseball teams are worth something. So they,
Starting point is 00:30:15 their net worth would have to be at least a billion dollars. And you know, if she's a billionaire, if she's a billionaire, like we'll give her a few more episodes. Yeah. But I just have to say like for all the trouble we went we went to to go to Delce and Cabana's house, that atrocity of an outfit she ended up walking out in was really a disgrace to fashion,
Starting point is 00:30:32 a disgrace to women, and a disgrace to life. Well, you know what? Like, here's the thing. It really didn't suit her, but I feel like it would have been really cute on me. Actually, it would have been cute on, like, Kyle Richards. Like, I could see her wearing something like that. Dorit. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:47 Dorit. Garcelle on Watched Rap and Live, when she was asked which of the ladies have the biggest ego, she said Kyle Richards. I feel that. I also feel like it's warranted because she's the last OG, like Tracy Morgan, you know? Yeah. And look how she's acting versus, like, Teresa Giudice, who's the last OG, too. Like, Teresa Giudice is a monster last OG too. Like Teresa Giudice
Starting point is 00:31:05 is a monster. All right. Kyle has a bit of an ego. We'll give it to her. We'll give it to her. Yeah. I totally agree with that. Okay.
Starting point is 00:31:11 I mean, the most incredible part was the last minute of like teasing and showing and foreshadowing this huge, what's the word?
Starting point is 00:31:24 Bombshell? I forgot the English word. Regus? Oh, yeah, like this big thing that we've been hearing about. I wasn't entirely sure the validity of it, but they didn't pretend like it hadn't gotten leaked, which I really appreciated. Like, they acknowledged that people are talking about
Starting point is 00:31:39 how Brandi Glanville exposed that allegedly her and Denise Richards had an affair, and that seems to be the thing that kills the group for Denise. And, and they, they're, it looks like they come at it from a place of like, we all come on this show,
Starting point is 00:31:55 like no skeletons. Like we have to be completely honest. Lisa Rinna's like, I'm talking about my daughter's eating disorder. And I, I agree with that, but something about the way, like who Denise was before the show
Starting point is 00:32:05 makes me think like she didn't come on this show to like bear her all. She came on the show for a paycheck. Yeah. I'm going to, I don't, I feel like when we see it all unravel, we'll have different thoughts because right now, like, yes, I agree. You're supposed to put your life out there, but there's a lot that these women don't show or don't talk about and the other women respect it.
Starting point is 00:32:27 So if Denise is having an extramarital relationship and either it is because she's in an open marriage or not, like that seems like the type of thing that the other women for each other would have ordinarily protected, you know? And even with Dorit and her lawsuits or like Kyle and Maurizio have been through a lot, and Erica and her, like, there's a lot of stuff that comes up all the time, and the women, like, actually draw a very hard line. That's why last season,
Starting point is 00:32:55 when Camille came for Dorit's finances, it was, like, such a big deal. And so while they, yes, they are very authentic and they share a lot of their lives, I wouldn't call them the castmates that bear all. No, I agree. I agree. I do think that, and I'm sure we'll find out, I don't think Denise Richards was running around having an affair. She's been very open about her and Aaron's sexual rendezvous, rumps in the sack. And I just think having somewhat of an open relationship when it comes to being with a woman is a part of that. And like, who cares? Well, we'll see. We'll see. I'm, I'm,
Starting point is 00:33:29 I'm remaining open-minded about it because I feel like watching it play out, we might feel a certain type of way that we couldn't possibly feel right now because we don't know anything. Yeah. But overall, I just thought it was like such a good episode, such a good premiere. I love having these back. Every outfit was just stellar, stellar, stellar. Like, Erika Jayne at V-Files, like, they really have become, because of the show, like, so famous. And I love that they're leaning into that. I love that the first episode, they went to New York. I feel like normally they maybe would have had, like, one or two episodes, like, getting ready for New York. And, like, I just don't need that. Like, they just dove right
Starting point is 00:34:02 in, which makes me think they have a lot of footage and, like, they don't need a lot of filler episodes, which is very exciting. And I'm just so pleased with where the cast is at. I love how famous they are. Like, I love how Lisa Rinna like was famous before, but it's now more famous than ever for being a housewife. Erika Jayne is so famous. Kyle is so famous. Like they're leaning into like the housewives fame. And it's not like the, the traditional housewives fame, but it has like a little bit of like a want, want to it. It's like, it's, that's what I'm, I forgot where I read it, but it's like Beverly Hills is the crown jewel of the Real Housewives franchise. And it's so true. Yeah, it's so true. It's such a pleasure
Starting point is 00:34:35 to have them back on TV. I'm so excited. I didn't realize how much I missed all of them and having like their fashion inspiration in my life. And also like they make me realize how much the other housewives and franchises, like the fashion is just like really bad. Some would say a disgrace. Yeah. Some would say that. Okay. So here's the update on Toast Movie of the Day. I didn't have time to finish Hannah Montana, the movie, because I was up until 1130 doing the redheads and then I had to watch Beverly Hills. So then I started Han Montana movie, but then it was 2am and I had to go to sleep. So I'm going to give one more day for Han Montana in the movie because I'm still going to watch it because I was just like loving it already. And plus we have to watch Rahoni and Kardashians tonight. Yeah. So
