Starting point is 00:00:00 Good morning, Millennials. Welcome back to the Morning Toast. Happy Tuesday. Another beautiful day here in New York City. Hey, Claude, how are you doing? I don't want to trigger people with how you doing. Well, I think you just did. I'm doing good. I'm, you know, cramping. I'm on my third cycle of quarantine. I'm feeling moody, feeling a little PMS-y, and ready to take it out on, you know, the toast. Nice. Well, me and Snitch are then completely synced up on our times of the month. So that's an interesting quarantine development. I wonder if any of the toasters are cycled up with us. Let us know. Yeah, that would just be so fun for the community. Yeah, you know, we have this like deep bond within our community and I think us all, you know, syncing up cycles would be just the thing we need to take us to the next level. I completely agree. Um, I'm sorry that you're in the cramp phase though. I passed through on Sunday, passed through to the other side and, um, and I'm feeling
Starting point is 00:01:01 better. Yeah. I'm in the cramp and also the weird fucking dream phase. I had the weirdest dream last night all about lizards. And like the whole night I felt like there were lizards in my bed. It was not good. Oh, that's really creepy. I had a dream, but it was more realistic. But now I'm losing it. Damn.
Starting point is 00:01:20 It wasn't that cool. That sounds like what Martin Luther King would have said. I had a dream. I had a dream. I'm losing it. So there's like not a lot of news today, but we'll do what we can. No, there actually is. Oh.
Starting point is 00:01:35 I actually had to, you know, eliminate some stories. There's some decent celebrity news. I watched a good amount of TV last night. Oh my God. I watched song land. Oh my God. I'm so behind. I forgot about it.
Starting point is 00:01:49 I'll watch. Don't let me forget to talk about it. It was Florida, Georgia line and it's giving old dominion competition for best episode ever. Like Zach and I were watching it and we didn't want it to end. Well, can we just wait to recap it tomorrow so I can watch it? Okay. But you have to watch it today or else I'm recapping tomorrow.
Starting point is 00:02:06 Oh, okay. I waited a whole week for you to watch Dead to Me and Hollywood. No, you recapped it. I just put my things on mute. Give me a day. I want to recap it together. Okay.
Starting point is 00:02:15 I said I'll give you a day. Maybe two. We'll see. A day or else you go on mute. That's a fair trade. That's fair. Cool. I also watch more of Money Heist. Still not
Starting point is 00:02:26 feeling season four, but it's something to watch. I'm like nervous it's going to end soon and then I have to get into like a whole new world of something and I'm just, I'm running low. My sleep was so full and now it's so empty and this is what I feared. That's what quarantine's all about. Like having a full plate and then an empty plate. I watched Jerry Seinfeld's comedy special and boy, do I have thoughts. Okay. Save it for the recap segment, but I probably won't watch. So I want to hear what you think. Yeah, no, I have a lot to say. Okay, great. And what else did I do yesterday? I actually had a really busy day. We recorded a Patreon episode of all dear toasters. We got such good inquiries. I hope people got some good advice and are going to make some changes. And then you and Snitch recorded a Taylor Swift themed episode
Starting point is 00:03:10 that is dropping today. How'd it go? I dropped it this morning already. It was good, but you know, so many of the questions that me and Margot got were like, rank this album, rank all of her albums, rank your favorite songs. And those questions are like so impossible. And I hate doing rankings because of course, no matter what, like something has to go at the bottom. And that implies somehow that it's like bad or negative when nothing she does is bad. There are just things I like more than others. So I have a lot of anxiety about rankings. And that was like all the questions that we got. And I tried to answer like every other question besides the ranking ones, but ultimately we had to rank all the albums. And like, I don't even stand by what I said because I liked them all. I feel like ranking her albums though is,
Starting point is 00:03:50 is possible. And it doesn't mean the one at the bottom is bad. It just means that you prefer the one at the top. But I don't want to say something because it's ever changing. Like for the last, maybe two or three years, 1989 has been my favorite album but forever it was red so it's like with with different faces of my life I just can't make a decision so I recently cleaned my apartment to the soundtrack of the red album because that's always what I thought was my favorite album of hers and what I thought was just the best album ever but I think it was just I was listening to it during one of the best times of my life. And the whole time, like, it's funny when you listen to her music, like I'm transported to what she was doing.
Starting point is 00:04:29 And I'm just like Ethel Kennedy, the Kennedys, everything was like, the red album is like an American history album about the Kennedy family. I couldn't fucking get Ethel Kennedy out of my head. Yeah, no, we said the same thing about how like different albums, like I've been a Taylor fan for so long. And part of why I love her so much is that different albums remind me at both times of her life, but also times of mine. Like I just remember listening to Red my first year of college and I was living out of my house. Like I was in a dorm. Like I just associate memories with the albums. But you know, Red was my favorite for so long, probably
Starting point is 00:05:01 because like it was such a good year of my life. But when I go back, it's actually not my favorite. Like, of course there's Red, State of Grace, like Amazing Stables, but there's actually like a lot of skips on that album for me. I don't love Lucky Ones or I almost do. Like I actually skip a good amount of songs, but see, I still like those songs. Like I'm not saying I don't like them. I'm just saying I skip them. No, like I thought Red was the best album and then I listened to it in 2020. Maybe just 2020 ruins everything. And I was like, oh, this definitely isn't my favorite album. In some ways, I actually like Reputation more.
Starting point is 00:05:35 Well, so Margot is like a Reputation stan, and I am a 1989 apologist. So it was just a very dynamic, in-depth conversation that I think everyone will enjoy. So what was your – can you give us a spoil? What was your top album, and what was Snitch's 1989 us a spoil what was your top album and what was snitches 1989 mine was 1989 um and then it was speak now and then it was lover and then it was um red and then it was I'm forgetting one. Whatever. Margo's top. Oh, fear.
Starting point is 00:06:08 Oh, you know what? I don't even fucking remember. It's so hard. It's so hard. Margo's top was Speak Now. Okay. I feel that for her. I feel that for her too.
Starting point is 00:06:19 And by the way, it just depends where I am. If I am in a mountain lodge, then speak now is my vibe. But if I'm on like a boat in the middle of Turks and Caicos, like lover is my vibe. It's just different scenarios. It really is. It's it. I don't envy the task because honestly, even as someone who like doesn't, who feels comfortable saying negative things about Taylor, I am having a hard time putting this together as well. So I look forward to listening. That like spiraled me for the rest of the day like I literally sat in bed and watched videos of Taylor Swift um like I went live on my Swifty account like I literally was the least productive person all day after that episode just because like I got in my own fandom and I couldn't
Starting point is 00:06:56 get out of it but that sounds like a good place to be like I love a good rabbit hole during the queue don't get me out don't come and get me don't come and get me. Don't come and get me. Don't come for me unless I stand for you. A hundred percent. Okay, cool. We also have a lot of interesting guests this week. They're not coming till the end of the week, but tomorrow we're going to sit down for an episode on Thursday with Lauren Gray,
Starting point is 00:07:21 who we are obsessed with. I'm so fucking excited. We have been like standing her since before like tiktok was a thing it was musically like especially margo like we've been obsessed with her and she has a new song coming out so i'm really excited to talk to her like maybe we'll get some tiktok followers from it and then on thursday we're recording for friday's oh no yeah thursday for friday's episode we're recording with liam mcsweeney from real hostages of new york which like i'm not well not well well. Not well. Not well. I'm so excited. It's been a while since

Just a couple of blonde queens. Totally. Okay. so maybe it's time. I think so. I think so. Okay, without further ado, it is time for the Fast Five Stories that you need to know. Yeah, you.

I didn't realize that Noturium, it's products found from nature. Yes, they put the nature in Noturium.
Starting point is 00:10:16 Sign on, get products found from nature. Okay, first story. Ryan Seacrest, quote, did not have any kind of stroke during the American Idol finale says his rep have you seen this story yes um I happened to catch the tail end of the American Idol finale just because it was on right before Taylor Swift's concert um on ABC and it was really um really sad like the whole thing was done via zoom and the winner won and I think that the other person who was up for the number one spot might have misheard because him and his family started celebrating with champagne and I was incredibly confused. And then they all just started singing and putting their faces on buildings and it made
Starting point is 00:10:54 no goddamn sense. But I didn't see the clip of Ryan Seacrest allegedly looking drunk. Okay, but you know what? If you saw that clip where the winner won, you actually did see the clip that everyone's talking about. While American Idol crowned Samantha just Sam Diaz the season's winner during the show's live remote finale on Sunday night, it was Idol host Ryan Seacrest who found himself sharing some of the spotlight. laying on-air hosting duties as contestants appeared remotely from their homes. The star briefly appeared off. His words seemed slightly slurred, and his right eye appeared larger than his left. The moment prompted a flurry of Twitter comments from fans concerned that Seacrest was not well or had suffered some kind of neurological episode.
Starting point is 00:11:37 So you definitely did see the thing that people are talking about, but you probably didn't notice it. I watched it, like, having read this headline, and now I'm like, oh, okay, I guess that does look a little strokey, but I probably, I thought it was going to be way more obvious than it was. But I guess throughout the night he was having, you know, technical difficulties and just stumbling over his words and people thought he might've been drunk. But his rep said, Ryan, Ryan did not have any kind of stroke last night. Like many people right now, Ryan is adjusting to the new normal and finding work-home balance with the added stress of having to put on live shows from
Starting point is 00:12:09 home between live with kelly and ryan american idol on air with ryan seacrest and the disney family sing-along specials he has been juggling three to four on-air jobs over the last few weeks and he's in need of rest so today he took a well-deserved day off oh my god everyone needs to chill the fuck out like ryan secrets is the hardest fucking working man in hollywood during the normal days he's like going back and forth from new york to la like leave him the fuck alone he's tired from literally putting the entire media industry on his fucking back okay i literally was watching shots of sunset and it said produced by ryan secrets okay he's busy yeah he's very busy he's probably exhausted um ergo one eye is bigger than the
Starting point is 00:12:47 other you know if having one eye bigger than the other is a crime then put me in jail lock me up okay throw away the key everyone is so like nitpicky about people it's like everyone's so bored and like just leave him alone i know but people also live for this shit. Like, you know, a video goes viral, someone acts imperfect, and then we're picking it up everywhere to the point that his rep needs to let us know that we didn't witness a stroke. Well, this is like a similar situation, like when people notice some odd behavior in Michael Bublé's Instagram Live in regards to his wife.
Starting point is 00:13:20 And that I felt as though was cause for concern. But I haven't seen this video, but it's just like his eye looked big. Are we seriously that specific? Okay. So first of all, it's, I guess it's a similar situation because it's like two videos that people have questions about, but like they're so different. And yes, his eye looked, honestly, it wasn't that concerning. His eye looked big. He, at some point, like seemed like he was just about to stop talking completely. big he at some point like seemed like he was just about to stop talking completely um he was moving very lethargically but maybe he was just lethargic i mean it wasn't exactly the most exciting finale of american idol like i can imagine ryan seacrest sitting at his fucking dining room table for two hours talking to nobody maybe he gets a little bored and he yawns and his eye bulges a little bit. Like I just, listen, he works so hard.
Starting point is 00:14:07 Like I do one show a day and I'm exhausted. Like he does four and maybe at the last show, the finale of American Idol where people's holograms are singing on fucking billboards, he got a little tired. Yeah, totally. I can't believe that they did the rest of the season of American Idol virtually. And honestly, if it hadn't been for Ryan Seacrest's fake stroke, I would have never even heard of
Starting point is 00:14:31 Just Sam. I would have no clue who won. No. And if it weren't for Taylor Swift's City of Love or concert, I wouldn't have even tuned in to know that A, American Idol is still on the air. Two, they're filming a remote finale. And three, tonight's the finale. I'm like, wow, I'm catching it. I literally was there. And the winner is. And I'm like, how fabulous is this? Yeah, I guess that was the point of putting Taylor Swift's concert, like, after that to, you know, drum up some love for American Idol. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:54 Well, Taylor Swift has now been hospitalized for putting the American Idol season finale on her back. Yeah. And she's in the room next to Ryan Seacrest for having a stroke. Yeah. And in the other room is Portia from Real Houses of Atlanta from putting the entire franchise on her back for the last five seasons.
Starting point is 00:15:07 And then in the room next to that is Francesca Farago from Too Hot to Handle for putting the whole show on her back. She's having some back issues. And then also down the hall
Starting point is 00:15:16 is Bianca Del Rio from season six of RuPaul's Drag Race was literally like the worst group of contestants ever and she was a star and she deserved better
Starting point is 00:15:22 and she put that entire fucking season on her back so I'm wishing her a speedy recovery. i mean we're foolishly mad to all of these people in the hospital at least they're together blessings blessings okay next up is a story that is um just you know we're gonna close the loop from something from yesterday brian austin green has confirmed he is split from megan fox after nearly 10 years of marriage it's the end of the road for Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green.
Starting point is 00:15:47 He confirmed on Monday, May 18th, that the longtime couple had called it quits after nearly 10 years of marriage. He revealed the breakup in a new episode of his podcast. Who knew he had a podcast titled Context? He referenced the photos of Fox and Machine Gun Kelly that surfaced over the weekend and revealed that he had a dream while she was filming her new movie with the rapper that there was distance between the two and noted that since the end
Starting point is 00:16:10 of 2019, quote, they've really been trying to sort of be apart. Okay, I feel like these two have been separated forever. Sometimes they come together like, I don't know, do they have kids? The messiest couple in hollywood
Starting point is 00:16:26 100 the one that made the least sense and the one that needed to end asap that's the thing it never made sense and you sometimes when couples don't make sense but they stay together for so long like it starts to make sense and like you you picture it together but these two just never really made sense to me like to me megan fox is like the pinnacle of, like, sexiness, Maxim, like, everything of the sort. She is, like, the most desirable woman in the world, objectively. And yes, Brian Austin Greenberg, or whatever his name is, like, he is handsome, but he is by no means, like, at the same level.
Starting point is 00:16:58 And he is technically, if you look him up in the dictionary, it says Brian Austin Green has been. Like, he doesn't really work anymore. So I just never really understood the pairing. And you would think like after they've been together for 10 years, they have kids, they have a family, like they're working through, like you would think I would start to like, you know, get on the ship, but it never really came in. Yeah. Oh my God. It never came in. I kept on hoping that every time I heard about these two, like it would have been over by now. And now it's finally over. He said, I will always love her.
Starting point is 00:17:23 And I know she will always love me. And I know know as far as family what we have built is really cool and really special he explained that they will still do family vacations and holidays as a family and really make that a focus for the kids lovely hopefully the kids are fans of machine gun kelly because he's gonna be coming around so like normally i'm not really like excited at the prospect of like a family you know breaking up parents kids involved um but at the prospect of like a family, you know, breaking up parents, kids involved. But at the same time, I'm like too excited about the prospect of machine gun Kelly and Megan Fox to like give a shit about these kids. Like this is fabulous. Megan Fox's time is coming.
Starting point is 00:17:53 Like she was with someone for 10 years who just wasn't on her level. And now she's with, it's probably such a different feeling for her to like be with someone on her level, you know? Yeah, for sure. Or someone who like together they will rise, you know, because like, she she's i haven't heard from her in a while like your uncle wallace of the wallace department store is like she's been kind of quiet and i feel like her and machine gun kelly are just going to both be taken to another
Starting point is 00:18:16 level from this relationship and i feel like he'll be a good stepdad to the kids so the kids will be looked after like the campers will be fine like Like Machine Gun Kelly is that I'll never forget the first time I saw Machine Gun Kelly because when I was an intern at AOL, they put on this like interview series where they would invite celebrities to do press and like nobody watched it, but like it was still like cool because they got cool people. And Machine Gun Kelly came and normally nobody really showed up to these things, but he had promoted it on his social media. And this was like six years ago.
Starting point is 00:18:43 So we had like a really like Tumblr-y, like really underground following. And all these people showed up to the corporate AOL headquarters, like spiky hair, tattoos. Like it was just like daddy chokers. Like it was just crazy. And he came into the interview and literally stopped the interview in the middle, took his shirt off, started rapping, screaming in the middle of a corporate office. Like all these people were like jumping, crowd surfing. It was the craziest thing I'd ever seen. And I was like, damn, who is this? He's kind of hot. Then he resurfaced with that whole Camila Cabello song. And it was such a good song. Like literally one of her best songs. Such a good song. Then he resurfaced as being like the
Starting point is 00:19:15 man who picked up the pieces from Ariana Grande, breaking Pete Davidson's heart, brought Pete Davidson to LA when he was in a very low point in his life, brought him to the Golden Globes, like Oscar party. And he's just, to me, I've seen him in so many different phases of his life and I've respected him ever since. So like, I'm just excited about this. I'm excited about this. I never had an opinion about him until the movie with Pete Davidson that we just watched adult, big adult. Um, and I was like, wow, he's a handsome feller. Yeah, no, he's very handsome, but like, he's like a little rough around the edges. Right, you wouldn't expect, like, when you hear about him,
Starting point is 00:19:48 like, he's bad to the bone and, like, he's, you know, edgy. MGK! He's also quite handsome. So get you a guy who can do both. Megan Fox has. And I look forward to watching my ship come in. Yeah, no, I'm standing at the port and I'm looking and it appears to be close to shore.
Starting point is 00:20:07 So I'm very excited. I'm wearing this nautical shirt today because I'm waiting for my ship to come in. Yes. Okay, this next story is really sad. So I'm just going to transition to sadness. Twilight actor Gregory Tyree Boyce and his girlfriend were found dead
Starting point is 00:20:26 in Las Vegas. Have you heard this story? Yes. Twilight actor Gregory Tyree Boyce and his 27 year old girlfriend were found dead in their Las Vegas condo last week, according to a report on Monday. Boyce and Natalie Peju were pronounced dead on May 13th, E! News reported. Their cause of death is pending a toxicology report. As an actor, Boyce was known for his role in the first of the Twilight movie franchise. He played Tyler Crawley, who has a crush on Kristen Stewart's character, Bella Swan.
Starting point is 00:20:54 He also appeared in the short film, Apocalypse. Prior to their deaths, they had been working on starting a wing restaurant, according to his mother, who posted a tribute on Facebook, calling him the best chef. I read what his mother posted on Facebook and it was just so sad. She was so heartbroken, like was so excited about his future. And this is just a really sad and mysterious story. And I just feel so sad for both of them. Yeah, it's like spooky, you know?
Starting point is 00:21:22 Like a pending cause of death. They were found dead it just it's so weird and it's really sad because they were so young um and i loved him in twilight so really wishing his family the best this is a terrible fucking story same and i hope that they get answers soon right um okay i'm gonna switch gears right again to happy news. Jade Roper Tolbert is pregnant and expecting baby number three with husband Tanner Tolbert. Wait, I heard that Jade Roper Tolbert was pregnant. Oh, no, no, no. You're confused.
Starting point is 00:21:59 It's Jade Roper Tolbert. Oh, I'm sorry. I got confused with the other Jade Roper Tolbert. Yeah, no, you would think Jade Roper Tolbert might be pregnant, but it's not. the other Jade Roper Tolbert. Yeah, no, you would think Jade Roper Tolbert might be pregnant, but it's not. It's Jade Roper Tolbert. Roper Tolbert. Sorry, podcasters. Jade Roper announced Monday she's pregnant and expecting her third child with husband Tanner Tolbert
Starting point is 00:22:21 after sharing a family photo along with a pregnancy test and a sonogram picture on Instagram. Here we grow again, she captioned it. It feels so good to be able to finally talk about this pregnancy. If you noticed, I haven't been on social media much the past couple of months. It's because I was dealing with terrible nausea and fatigue on top of taking care of two kiddos during a pandemic. We are so thankful and excited for this bebe. I truly believe bebes being born during this time are here for a special reason, to be light workers. We are beyond happy to be light workers. The way I said it was like we were light workers. Yeah. Like fixing the lights. And then down to the construction site with a drill.
Starting point is 00:23:03 We are beyond happy to love another baby, to give Emmy and Brooks another sibling, to have our children be so close. Oh my God, this is so sweet. They're such a sweet family. I love, I do love Bachelor Baby News because with every baby that is born, it gives like the franchise another season
Starting point is 00:23:20 to, you know, let people think that they're doing some good in the world. Yeah, no, and it like out're doing some good in the world. Yeah, no. And it like outweighs like in the scale, like when you get to heaven and God like weighs all the good things that you did, it's like, look what they did. They tried to like ruin Olivia Caridi's life, but they're responsible for like 10 kids now. So like it kind of weighs out, I guess. That's like Mike Fleiss's judgment. That is his cross to air life owner, life creator. Does it balance out? I actually think it does.
Starting point is 00:23:49 You think? I don't know. I mean, who are we to judge? We are no one to judge. But in regards to this story, like I know that you're like, of course you never know what goes on behind closed doors. And like, you shouldn't like really like look at other people's lives and like want to emulate it. Like you should be grateful for what you have. But like, I just like think they have the perfect life and i'm sure that they have their own shit but like they're just it just appears like everything like just happens for them do you know what i mean yeah except for just to give you some perspective a few things one they won that draft king's money
Starting point is 00:24:17 but then um tanner's own friend lest we not forget, Goose, Goose of Crystal and Goose, ratted him out and they didn't get the money. It's other thing that I just like can't get out of my mind, no matter how hard I try. They were on marriage bootcamp and they were like fighting in the room and it was just like, they're just like us. You raised some very interesting points. Once again, reminding people nobody's perfect. Hannah Montana said it best points. Once again, reminding people nobody's perfect. Hannah Montana said it best. Nobody's perfect, but I agree with you that they are goals, but like perfect isn't goals because nobody is perfect. Like they seem like they have a real true relationship. Their family keeps growing. They have such cute babies and they seem like
Starting point is 00:25:00 overall content with their life. And that's really all you can ask for. Remember their palace in Kentucky or Kansas where we're living and now they live in LA and it's still a palace. It's like the nicest house I've ever seen. I know. But like when they were living in a palace in Kansas. And they had a lake and barns and horses. Yeah. I don't know if they had horses, but it was nice. It was nice. It looked like they had horses. Yeah. I don't know if they had horses, but it was nice. It looked like they had horses. Yeah. I wonder what

Sorry to have interrupted you with just that very important segment. Fifth and final story. It is a little biz news. Okay, TikTok taps Disney executive Kevin Mayer as their new CEO. The head of Disney Plus streaming service will lead the video app owned by Bytenance as his Chinese company seeks global expansion. So Kevin Mayer, who was passed over for the top job at Walt Disney Co,
Starting point is 00:28:10 you know, the one who would take over for Bob Iger, is becoming chief executive of TikTok in a jump from one of the entertainment industry's most venerable names to one of its buzziest new arrivals. I think that this is so interesting. So this is the guy who launched Disney Plus, then he didn't get the job as CEO. And now he's go, he's taken his talents to TikTok. Honestly, good. You know, you have to know your worth. You do have to know your worth. Um, and I hope this means like really exciting improvements
Starting point is 00:28:38 for TikTok, even though like, I don't even know what they need. No, it's the perfect platform. I spent all morning on it. I think a lot of people are just like concerned or like the only real like discussion around TikTok is like it's the biggest app in the world. Like, can it last? So I think it's great that they're having someone from Disney who's like from an established company, like a long lasting company come over.
Starting point is 00:28:58 Hopefully he can bring some of that stability to TikTok because musically it was like everything of the sort until it wasn't, you know? Yeah. And no, it definitely, I think TikTok would probably be worried about just like burning out. Like, is this really just like a quarantine hobby? I think that they have all the makings of being a forever sort of platform, but they definitely have to make the right moves at this time. Yeah, I agree. They, I foresee, you know, not that I know anything, but I do foresee it being like a stagnant platform where like people are just going to always have one.
Starting point is 00:29:27 Like you have a Facebook, you have an Instagram, you have a TikTok. Yeah, I agree with that. I like TikTok, so it's a good platform. That's the tea. That's that on that. Should we dive into our TV recap segment? Yes, we should. Okay, I want to hear about, what were you just saying that you watched?
Starting point is 00:29:45 Oh, the Seinfeld special. Yes. So it's called 23 Hours Left. And first of all, it was just fabulously done. He had like a full orchestra on stage, at the beacon, the lights. Like it was really like old Hollywood glamour. And the first like 20 minutes, me and Ben were dying. It was just really Seinfeld-y, like talking about just how difficult everything is.
Starting point is 00:30:08 Like, he's like, even you guys came here to my show tonight, like the tickets, you got the tickets, it's dinner, should I pick you up? Like it was all the intricacies of like how leaving the house is terrible and how everything you do, you only do it so that you can come back home. Yeah. It was like so funny. Me and Ben were dying and then it just stopped. It just completely stopped so funny. Me and Ben were dying. And then it just stopped. It just completely stopped being funny.
Starting point is 00:30:28 And it was weird because like Seinfeld's very specific. He has like an older demographic, like really like Jewish humor. And I felt like he just started talking about like cell phones and like social media, just like in an attempt to like be relevant. I don't even know. It just felt so unnatural. And it was so not funny. It was literally like local Vegas comedy opener. Like it was, there were some jokes like I was just, it was so strange because he's so funny and I, and he does this like clean type
Starting point is 00:30:57 of humor. It's like not vulgar, which I really like. And he's been like one of my favorite comedians. And like, we were dying at first, Like, and then I look at Ben and I'm like, we haven't laughed in like 10 minutes. It just, it came to a halt. And it was because it was just like, why is Sherry Seinfeld talking about your phone being in your pocket? And like, it's like, it just, it made no sense.
Starting point is 00:31:15 And I just like, we eventually turned it off. And I'm sure it picked back up. Like every set of comedy like has highs and lows, but the low was just so long that we just couldn't get back into it wow okay I want to watch that first 20 minutes that you're talking about though yeah it was so funny it was so Ben like and it just really it's like 23 hours left it's like everything in the life is so long and hard and I just I thought that was going to be the whole
Starting point is 00:31:40 special I'm like I totally relate especially in quarantine like I totally relate to that concept that like everything is just difficult. People are difficult and you hate your friends, but you don't want to go make new friends. So you just stick with the old ones. Like it was so funny. And then it just, it was like a different comedian stepped on stage. Wow. That is so interesting. Okay. I will definitely be there. Yeah. And that's all I watch. Oh. And then we went and watched some old um we just like wanted to watch something funny watch some old Chappelle um stand-up which was it was crazy honestly like I just can't believe he said some of the stuff that he says you know oh which one did you watch
Starting point is 00:32:16 um it was called the bird revelation or something I don't know okay would you recommend it honestly no like I'm not even like pc police but it was really making like some of it was like making me uncomfortable he talked a lot about louis ck um and but he also spoke about how we know he knew a lot of the stuff that he was saying was crazy and wrong but he just wants to say it because we let comedians have a responsibility to be reckless and to be offensive so like i got it but like just some of the stuff as like a woman i just like couldn't get on board with it. At the same time, he's also like, such like a champion of women. It makes no fucking sense. Like, he was just talking about like,
Starting point is 00:32:53 and then he ended up like, it was just a little all over the place. Like I couldn't decide like what side he was taking in anything, which I think was the point. But so like, as someone who believes that like, comedians should be able to joke about things, like I was here for it. Butians should be able to joke about things like I was here for it but like as a woman I was like not here for a lot of the stuff oh god okay now I'm now I'm just curious to watch it but um I probably won't no it was very crunchy if it doesn't come highly recommended like I can barely even watch this stuff I'm excited about watching yeah no I don't know if I would like 100% recommend it like there were parts that were
Starting point is 00:33:24 so funny but like I just had like a little bit of a pit the whole time. Understood. Did you see The Politician season two got a release date? June 19th. I'm so excited. Me too. Hopefully like we'll be out of the house by then and I'll be too busy to watch it. But at this rate, no one really knows. Hopefully I'll be watching it like al fresco while I'm dining al fresco. Yeah. Just the prospect of which makes me so excited. I know. I know, Jackie. I know.
Starting point is 00:33:52 I know. It's really crazy watching like so many states are opening up or things are like moving and it's just we're living in a different world, you know? Yeah. No, like people are really making strides. Like the curve has been flattened. A few restaurants are choosing business owners are choosing to open if they feel safe because they're not now allowed to. And I just like, I don't know what planet I'm on because it's not that one. No. And like, no one has that choice here, but you know, it's the beginning of the
Starting point is 00:34:18 week. And so I'm, I'm starting off on, on a good foot. You know, I put on a red lip today just to stay in my house. And so we'll be patient. Yes. Did you watch anything you want to recap? I'm not finished with Money Heist yet. So there's not that much that I want to say. But I don't know. It's just like the trope of the show is just getting like exhausting.
Starting point is 00:34:44 At some point, the hostages like know that no one is going to kill them. Like you can just walk out the front door. Like in the first siege, this spoiler is like, they don't kill hostages. They're not there. They're not murderers. They're not there to kill people. And like, I know what we're supposed to be on the side of the professor and his squad. But at the end of the day, like they're criminals and they're thieves. And so every time something goes
Starting point is 00:35:06 against them, I'm excited that the police are winning. So it's really like the Super Bowl. Whichever team wins is the team that I wanted to win, because I really don't give a shit. But you know, whose time is it? Summertime? No. It's not their time. Oh. Whose time?
Starting point is 00:35:23 Yeah. You said it's like the Super Bowl right it's not your time oh right no no it was the cheapest time and we yeah the other one the other one was the what city did we offend san francisco san francisco i think we did offend San Francisco. That sounds about right. I don't even remember the Super Bowl. It wasn't their time. It wasn't their time. That's the thing. But what's so crazy is the Super Bowl was just like a month before the queue. Yeah, no. It was like two months ago. No, but it feels like years ago. When I started, the toaster was freezing. I literally put a blanket on my legs and I've never been hotter. That's great. You worked up a sweat. Yes, I
