Good morning, Millennials. Welcome back to the Morning Toast. Happy Tuesday. I hope everyone's having a great Tuesday. I know I am, because I'm just like, I've been up for 1,000 hours. 10,000 hours. Sometimes I like to see how long you'll go talking before I can get a word in. You know what? Sometimes I feel you, like, staring at me, like... Just like waiting for my turn to say hey hey guys I'm here too because just in case the YouTube video isn't processing you're listening on a podcast you wouldn't know that I'm also here I want to apologize for yesterday's it's not even our fault

like I don't even know who I'm apologizing for like I'm just such a woman like always apologizing because it's YouTube's fault YouTube took like almost 24 hours to process our video from yesterday and it wasn't up until this morning which which is really annoying. I mean, the podcast was up at noon and most people listen as a podcast, but still like the YouTube community deserved better. And I'm really sorry. Yeah. We're sorry. Again, not our fault. But it's there now. So if you want to go watch, go watch. Cause it was a really fun episode. We caught up on so much. So if you like, sometimes you need to watch that catch up episode in order for all of us to move forward. So I just, I feel like you guys starting on today's episode like you don't know what I did this weekend like you

gotta go watch we caught up on personal we caught up on love island we did the love is blind after the altar recap it's like a big chunky delicious episode and we both look like so cute yesterday like I was like living and I was like no one can see I'm so upset yeah but also that's why it took so long to process because it was an hour and a half long episode, which actually might have been our longest episode without a guest ever. And if Ben hadn't walked in, which he'll also say, we probably would have gone for another 20 minutes. Yeah, yeah, exactly. So check that out if you haven't yet. But we're here today on this beautiful Tuesday, and it's a really special day

because Do To Do is here. If the video doesn't process and you're listening as a podcast, you wouldn't know. But he's here, and he's sitting with his auntie because we haven't been together on the show and in quite a long time and it just feels so right and I feel so prepared and like complete would you say complete and just ready to do the job that I need to do knowing that I have do dadu do dadu dadu and also if you're somehow not gonna end up watching this like I look super cute because I've been up for literally three hours. I had the longest morning ever because I filmed to get ready with me for the Patreon because like was it last month that you did it? I think it was two months.

Yeah two months ago Jackie did like how I get ready for the show so everyone seemed to like it and I actually really enjoyed it because we couldn't be more different in our styles of hair and makeup and also just like our morning routine which is shocking just because we're so similar in so many other ways. I'm so excited to watch yours and see how you do things. Like you do your makeup before your hair. Of course. That's just crazy to me. Like it's so backwards.

I don't think so. But I look forward to seeing you do yours. Maybe I'll be changed, but I don't think so. My hair is just like a last minute, you know, last ditch effort. Interesting. My hair requires more upper arm strength. So like I have to get it out of the way. Oh, well, once a week, my hair or twice a week probably is when I do my hair like from

scratch. But then the other days it's like pretty much the same as yesterday. It just needs a little bit of touch ups. So you'll see like I sleep like such an animal that I could have a full blowout on Monday night and I wake up Tuesday morning. It's like the blowout never existed. which is so annoying that like I pretty much do my hair in full every day damn but you have naturally beautiful hair not anymore I don't believe you no look you'll see in the video like I wake up and I did my hair yesterday morning my

hair yesterday looked so cute and you'll see this morning when I wake up it's like frizzy McGee okay it's frizzle but you're showing us how to get this look of hair. Yeah so I do my hair my makeup getting ready and it's just like it was fun. I mean I got up so early I over compensated like I didn't know how long I would need to film the vlog so I actually already started editing it so it'll be up really soon. I'm so excited to watch. Thanks. Truly. I love a vlog moment. I love when my sisters vlog like Like even when Snitch does her vlogs, like how fun. I know. Well, Snitch happens to have like a super interesting life.

Yes. Where I feel like I'm like boring. No. Well, when I, no, yeah, like Snitch is just fabulous. No, the thing about Snitch is that we don't know what she does. So when we're watching a vlog, it's like, oh, that's what you did. But I know every time you pee. Fart, yeah.

So when I'm watching the vlog I'm like oh yeah and here's a summation of everything that Claudia does but I don't know how you get ready for the toast so I am looking forward to that yeah so it'll be up soon I'm very excited I hope you guys enjoy it and we have a great show for you guys today The Bachelorette ended last night and even though Jackie and I have not been watching this season we're still going to give our unsolicited opinions but if you're looking for some solicited opinions the snatchler watch the three hour finale the chutzpah is unparalleled the snatchler watched it all hero so if you're looking for like a really detailed recap about the whole season specifically the finale check out the snatchler um she's

recapping it all and they're still going to go into bachelor in paradise which we have some bachelor in paradise news yeah um and we have dear toasters because remember we recently made a shift a calendar shift that kind of like, I don't know, changed the trajectory of our whole brand. You think so? Moving Dear Toasters. I keep forgetting. I just feel like it changed and it was always meant to be this way because there is not a single utterance of complaint. Yeah. And there's also no TV that we watch on Mondays. Love Island's not on and we don't watch The Bachelor. So Tuesdays were always kind of lackluster, but now they're full of goodness. And tonight is The Real Housewives

of New York. So we'll be able to recap. We overcompensate like it just and Love Island, like it just makes more sense. Great. I can't wait for all of that. And I think we should get into it because we need to talk about The Bachelorette, because even though we didn't watch, like I do have so many thoughts on the Blake Moylan of it all, the Blake Moylan of it all, like to not watch this season and then to like just swipe to see who Katie chose and it's like this guy who we know from the other seasons I'm like the park ranger the wildlife manager park ranger no he's a wildlife manager park ranger I was just like oh so I didn't even need to watch the season if she's just gonna pick this guy who we already know is like pretty thirsty yeah and from what I gather like thirsty no that's Katie's name

Katie Thurston um also like it's funny because I think the internet has pretty much like designated Katie Thurston as like kind of choogy which I think she is I think the Bachelor franchise in general is pretty cheeky but she's like very much like side parts skinny jeans um and she doesn't like she's not good at social media because she's just like doesn't care as much like the first picture she posted with her and Blake was like so blurry vertical with like whites on the sides like she needs a social media manager yeah I saw Snatchler posted that and that's just unacceptable you know I agree like you've had all year to learn social media like come on no and it's like when you get the opera being the lead of bachelor bachelorette is the opportunity of a lifetime yep and because what comes with it are all of

the followers and you need to rise to the occasion you need to sustain them and give the followers premium content yeah that's the job once you're a bachelor bachelorette or once you win or once you make it to the very end I always think of one of the best examples is that is like Vanessa Grimaldi and Raven Gates that season those girls were kind of like the last season of girls that got a million followers just by being in the top four. And I feel like Raven has really like cemented herself as like an influencer. Like she takes a lot of time on her content, her and Adam are like always working on their content. And I remember watching Vanessa Grimaldi's Instagram followers drop just because like she didn't care. And so if you go on the show and like that's your focus which maybe it's not

for everyone it just seems like a wasted opportunity I feel like you know Michelle's season is currently filming like Katie's a week from becoming completely irrelevant and she's putting up blurry you know white edged photos and it's just not gonna work yeah I would just say Katie look at me and this opportunity that's standing right in front of me it is so crazy to me that that song is going viral on TikTok I know and I thought that you understood a TikTok reference but that's not the case no that's not the case that song is from Annie and it's not the the lead song of the of the, because obviously you get Hard Knock Life and you get all the classics. The sun will come out.

But Sia worked on the soundtrack for the most recent Annie, and she gave us some original songs, including Opportunity. Sia's so good. Like, justice for Sia. Justice for Sia. No, she's getting justice by the fact that that sound is going viral on TikTok.

That's true. And it's justice for me, you know, because that movie's so good. And if you haven't watched it, you definitely should. I've seen it once. I don't remember being, like, particularly impacted by it. But I remember you, like, literally, like, your life changed after that.

No, here's the thing. I'll explain the thing. The thing is, it's so hard to do a modern take on a classic tale. It is so hard. But when it's done right, there's really nothing better. I agree. And that was Annie. For sure. So it was just, oh my god, Mr. Stacks. Like, it was so hard. But when it's done right, there's really nothing better. I agree. And that was Annie.

For sure. So it was just, oh my God, Mr. Stacks. Like, it was so good. He's like running for mayor. It was crazy. And just like Quim and Janae Wallace's mere presence elevates any film. And I think she really did justice for that role. No, and she gave an amazing performance.

Everyone did. Rose Byrne, you know, Jamie Foxx, everyone. Rose Byrne is a good Miss Hannigan. No, she wasn't Miss Hannigan. She was a Grace character. Miss Hannigan was Cameron Diaz. And it's everything of a sort. Oh, right.

It's everything of a sort. You know what? I feel like I spend a lot of time thinking about Cameron Diaz. And how she just totally, like, retired. And she's probably living her best life. Yeah. And how just, like, I think all the time about how happy I am for her. Like she got the bag,

like she got Shrek, she made like a hundred million dollars from Shrek. And after that it was all just, what's the phrase? It's all just, like when it's just like extra, like. Carry on top.

Like kind of, no, it's all just like frosting. No, gravy. Yes. After that, like all the great movies,

she became like the rom-com star of the early 2000s. And now she's just like married to one of the Madden brothers, can't remember which one, has her babies, lives in probably like a fortress, and is so happy. Yeah. And I think she started a wine company too. I think she did because I saw that and I was thinking that too. So that's definitely the case.

Oh, I saw it on Dumois. And you know what else I saw on Dumois that I'd just like to briefly talk about? Somebody spotted Sarah Jessica Parker. And they were like, she's out to lunch with her kids or whatever. She's reading a pink book with black writing. Now, I'm just saying, it's entirely possible. It's not out of the realm of possibility. Is it high probability?

No. But it's possible that she was reading my New York Times bestselling book, Girl With No Job, The Crazy Beautiful Life of an Instagram Thirst Monster, available as Kindle, audiobook, hardcover, anywhere, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, indie bookstores. Check it out because it might be Sarah Jessica Parker approved unless you don't like it. It might be. That's true. But then she wouldn't be seen reading it publicly. Yeah, I know.

I'm just like, I really want to know if anyone who wrote that in, like, is a toaster. Like, please let me know what the book was. Or do you have a picture of it or something? No, I think it's better. Here's the thing. It probably wasn't your book, if we're being honest. That is so hurtful. If we're being honest.

Yeah, it's important to be honest. So I think it's better to not know. Because then you can always live on the dream that it was your book. Okay. Also, I just want to talk about one other movie that's just in this Rolodex of movies that live remp-free in my mind, along with Bad Teacher, Annie, The Wedding Ringer.

Have you seen that movie? I think you might be a big Cameron Diaz fan. Okay, but not in the third one. Wait, The Wedding Ringer. With Kevin Hart and Josh Gad. Oh my God, yeah, of course. Where Kelly Cuoco's like such a bitch. Yes, okay.

Every single time I'm at a wedding and a rehearsal dinner and there's a speeches, I think of the wedding ringer. I ask everyone at the table if they've seen it. Nobody fucking has. So you all need to watch this movie because you can't go to a wedding without watching it. It's such a good movie.

Bic. Bic. Mitchup. Jackie, you're the only person who like quotes that movie, but it is really good. No, but I don't remember like anything. All that I remember was that like Josh Gad was getting taken advantage of by Kelly Cuoco and Kevin Hart was like hired to be his best man. He's a groomsman for hire for guys who don't have friends. Who don't remember like anything. All that I remember was that like Josh Gad was getting taken advantage of by Kelly Cuoco and Kevin Hart was like hired to be his best man. He's a groomsman for hire for guys who don't have friends.

Who don't have friends, which was like the whole movie was just like Josh Gad being sad and I really didn't like it. But he comes out on top and I don't want to spoil anything. And it's also such a good movie just about like wedding etiquette, you know, because Kevin Hart has been to a million weddings and he knows exactly how it goes. And he's like, you know, the best man who takes out his speech and then rips it up like you know you don't want to be that guy you guys have to watch The Wedding Ringer like if you're in wedding season of your life because I'm so sick of bringing it up at weddings and no one's seen it

you know what a table what movie I always bring up at weddings table 19 because I'm like always table 9 oh teen 19 19 yeah yeah because I'm like oh it's not like a random table I'm like this is like table 19 like you're her accountant like I'm like, oh, it's at like a random table. I'm like, this is like table 19. Like, you're her accountant. Like, I'm her best friend. Like, why am I sitting here? I know, but that was like a weird indie movie. And just like the odds that people have seen that are even smaller.

Really? Yeah. I don't even think it was in theaters. But Anna Kendrick was in it. I know. And I don't think she's like proud of it or anything. But it's a really good movie and a good premise. It's like she's at a wedding of her ex-boyfriend.

And she's at like the miscellaneous table with like the other people they didn't know where to seat and all of these people like go on a journey together yeah it was cute like it wasn't the best movie I've ever seen but I think of it when I go to um weddings where I'm seated at like a random table because like I'm like not really like friends like you know yeah yeah no exactly so those are two movies that you should watch before you go to a wedding and then you'll you know you'll be set you'll be laughing to yourself because I'm oh like I was at a wedding and someone like took out their speech and ripped it up and I was like I've just fucking seen wedding ringer yeah that must be frustrating for you yeah it's thank you all right so check those out um I feel like we should dive in because we're definitely gonna

have a long show we've got dear toasters lots to talk about and I feel comfortable I feel comfortable diving in you feel comfortable getting right into it yeah okay so without further ado it is time for the fast five stories that you need to know before you wake up and take a bite out of your morning toast and today's episode is brought to you by glug glug glug glug glug hydro jug hydration made easy okay you guys the benefits of drinking water are endless it can improve your energy, your mental clarity, clear your skin, and just help with your overall wellness.

So a hydro jug might be the

thing you need because sometimes it's easy to forget about drinking water, but a hydro drug keeps you on. It keeps you accountable, it keeps you on schedule. A hydro jug features a half a gallon of water with a leak-proof seal and a wide mouth opening. It also has a carry loop, so it makes it super easy to carry. And on the sides of the bottle has a measurement scale, so you know how much progress you're making every day

with how much water you're drinking. It's totally dishwasher safe. The bottle is shatterproof, and they have a sleeve that insulates your content. So it keeps your water cool and it protects your hydro jug. And then it also has two pockets, one for your phone and then another one for like smaller accessories like your AirPods. It also comes with an adjustable strap so you can carry your hydro jug because they can be very heavy, which is even more of an incentive to drink it so it gets lighter. So they're easy to clean,

easy to reuse because they're dishwasher safe. And just one person switching to a reusable water bottle saves approximately 217 plastic water bottles from going into a landfill.

It's like in your face, like drink me, drink me, bitch. And I definitely feel like it's effective. I've started drinking so much more water and using less plastic, which is always great. We were talking earlier about how we really need to commit to some self-care this week because a lot of things have just fallen by the wayside and you know doing a hydro jug filling it up getting it done which is

like so much makes it like fun you know it's like it's a game of fives drinking water I think that's the best place for us to start I mean I'm definitely on the self-care journey with you but I'm so focused on moving like literally I had such a mishap with my freezer like the freezer just turned off because like it felt like it and everything in my freezer melted. Like I spent like $300 on kosher meat. Useless. I got to throw it all out. So annoying.

So I'm just like on this journey to get out of my apartment. Like that's where my focus is. I spent all day yesterday like on all these websites and I've officially seen every apartment and there's nothing out there for me. But I actually got a message from a toaster who was like me me and my husband are moving, but like, we think we're going to rent out our apartment or maybe sell it. Like, if you'd like it, like, let me know. And it's not my desired location, but it is beautiful. And it does have the outdoor space I was talking about, like more than just a terrace, like a outdoor living space. It's more

like a garden. Um, and it was just like an off-market moment. And I was like, so like Frederick Eklund, like off-market, like who dis? So I don't know. I was like so like Frederick Eklund like off-market like who dis so I don't know I feel like I'm gonna become an off-market girly but then I was like googling off-market apartment but like they're off-market for a reason so you can't find them so if anyone has any off-market rentals like hit me up yeah you got to put the call out there yeah like off-market I'm here like I'm on market gotta get off so will somebody just get me a boarding pass off-market no seriously like I'll take anything everyone's like where do you want to live I'm like market. Gotta get off. So will somebody just get me a boarding pass off market? No, seriously.

I'll take anything. Everyone's like, where do you want to live? I'm like, I don't care. Like, I'm with you Tribeca. Like, I don't fucking care. Well, if that was true, then you would have taken the toaster up on her apartment, no? Yeah, except. Wow.

Totally. Except like that happens to be in the one area like I really don't want to be in. Okay. Okay, fine. But I'm still open to it. Kind of. If you move into Tribeca, I'll. I'll do it. I don't give a fuck. Sure. No, I live in Tribeca. I'll believe it when I to it. If you move into Tribeca, I'll... I'll do it.

I don't give a fuck. Sure. No, I love Tribeca. I'll believe it when I see it. Okay. You'll have like a 30-minute commute to work every day. Literally, what else am I doing? That's true. Okay, are you ready to get into the stories?

Because the first one is the big news of this Tuesday, which is that The Bachelorette star Katie Thurston got engaged to Blake Moynes last night on The Bachelorette star Katie Thurston got engaged to Blake Moynes last night on The Bachelorette finale for those of us who did not watch this season and who just woke up to the news that she was engaged to Blake what in the world transpired it also made like confirmed my like desire to not watch this season because now it's like oh I didn't miss anything I know Blake he's you know the thirsty one from Clarentasia season who will say anything to stay on this motherfucking show and look his talents got him far enough I had heard whispers that he had like

come back because he was like you know you know very taken by Katie I didn't even know he was still around so like when I was like I was looking really hard for a spoiler on Twitter and I guess people on Twitter really respect the time zone West Coast spoiler alert because I couldn't find shit. And then, of course, who had it? The censor. No. The clickbait queen, just Jared, had it.

And I was like, Blake, there's no way. Like, that's so random. Especially because, like, from what I was gathering on Twitter was that she ended, like, at the top five or four with, like, really, really great guys. And it's like a Hannah Brown situation like you have Tyler C but you choose Jed and it's like you have all these guys and you choose Blake for my understanding of not watching the show but just seeing um like headlines here and there and I saw a commercial last night so her this guy Greg was number three

and I think like everybody's obsessed with Greg and I think Katie was too but then he like left on his own volition which just goes to show you he's not he's here for the wrong reasons and he doesn't like you and he got way too far and like he didn't know what to do with himself like to me when someone leaves at top three like that that is the biggest fucking red flag because it means that you were not here for the love like you got further than you wanted to it's shit's getting serious and you want out like I don't have to watch and maybe if I watched the show I would feel differently but like when I just see it like that you know I'm like oh you weren't here for the right reasons that's so interesting you couldn't take this charade any further I think sometimes I do feel that way about a lot of people especially the

guys because like for a girl whatever like if even if you're not obsessed with a guy like being in a relationship is not the biggest deal but for some guys it's like scary I I agree but I think the overall thing with Greg was like he was so infatuated with Katie like he couldn't handle this environment anymore he was so close to the end the environment was ending totally totally so anyways the vibe that I was getting from just the press was that Greg was her number one he left and so she has to choose between these two guys I think it was Blake and the other guy's name was Justin. Justin is the other guy and so she chose Blake and it does feel a little bit like maybe the editing made it seem like it was a consolation since she wasn't over Greg. I don't

even fucking watch so I don't know and I'm sure like they're in love and all's good. I just can't believe it's fucking Blake Moylan. Like, no, I know. Literally in shock. I was expecting to see like new guy I've never seen, you know? I know. And it's Blake Moylan. And for those of you who don't know, I've really been on a journey with my feelings towards Blake Moylan. Yeah, you have. Because when he first showed up on Claire's season, I really thought he was such a catch. I thought he was so cute. And like nobody thought much of him, but like you had like, were really kind of taken by him. I was taken by him. Like he's a wildlife manager, which I think is such an interesting job, you know, and like just pretty cool. And he's super handsome.

And I was like, okay, this guy seems like, you know, legit. I want to say super handsome. Well, now that I know, like for me, people just look like their personalities. So I'm trying to go back to who I was. So what do I look like to you? The most beautiful angel alive yeah um wait did you just call me ugly my personality makes me look pretty no even if no I know you're saying if you're ugly and you have an ugly personality you look ugly if you're pretty and you have an ugly personality you look ugly

if you're ugly and you have a pretty personality it's me no I'm kidding yeah no I agree with you but it's more so like for guys too like even when I watch Love Island like I stop seeing the what they look like and I'm just like the things they say a hundred percent okay and that's on not being shallow so what was I saying about Blake my journey with him my journey with him so at first I was like he seems like a really good catch and like a strong contender. And then like everything got weird and then Tayshia came. And he like brought that same, you know, devoted energy to Tayshia that he brought to Claire. And I was like, you can't be so devoted.

Wait. Isn't it kind of weird that like Tayshia is hosting a season with a guy she used to date? Yeah. I didn't even think about that. I didn't think about that either. But it's weird. So now he's on his third bachelorette. He bringing that same devotion and I'm sorry you just can't be like that gung-ho about three different girls no but you're that gung-ho about being on television

yeah because all the girls look so different act so different like not everyone can be your type you're not gonna fall in love with everyone and if you do like what's wrong with you so like when I heard he was going on this on this season I was just like okay confirms like my suspicions that make he just wants to be on television and will really date anyone but you know his talents have gotten pretty far because now he's engaged that's crazy like what what I agree and like I don't know I just don't really like jive with yeah no the whole thing is so engagement pictures and I just like I'm not feeling it I'm not buying it but I didn't watch a season so maybe I'm missing something yeah actually from I've been trying to just like gather intel on how people are feeling and people are really divided it's either like biggest waste

of my time or like wow this is actually really like earnest genuine season I don't know how you could think both of those things like I don't know that is why I need to listen to the snatcher today like I have no desire to watch any of this content, but I just want to know what the snitch thinks because she doesn't hold back that snitch. Can we talk about now, like, you know, in hindsight, how the journey, the decision that we made to not watch The Bachelorette, like how do you think that was for us?

I feel so at peace with my decision. Not for one minute did I regret it. I had seen some comments that were like, you guys chose the wrong season to skip. Like you gotta be watching Katie's season. And I've just some comments that were like you guys chose the wrong season to skip like you gotta be watching Katie season and I've just never felt that way um I won't be watching Michelle's season because I I'm pretty much done with and also whoever is the next Bachelor will have come from one of these seasons and I don't know I don't know him um but I will still be watching

Bachelor in Paradise because that's usually a fun show, which leads into our next story if you're ready for it. Bachelorette, former Bachelorette Becca Kufrin is taking to season seven of Bachelor in Paradise. Last night they aired a promo for the new season and we will see her on the beach. She reunites with Joee grocery store joe who was on her season oh my god um and that's just really crazy i believe i need to think long i believe too i think she is the first lead to go on bachelor in paradise after being the lead because nick was on and then became the lead colton was on then became the lead that's not

what i'm saying the only graduate like and to me it's weird because I remember before you know Chris Soules killed someone yes had that tragic accident he was supposed to go on Bachelor in Paradise yes and I remember thinking that was really cute I remember thinking that was really cute because I was like he really wants to find love and he should go on the beach and all these girls, like he doesn't even know them anymore. Like it was a few seasons. Yeah. But now like when Becca's doing it, I'm like, this is really sad. Like, oh, how the mighty have fallen.

Yeah. So I think generally there is a huge hierarchy within Bachelor in Paradise, whereas like some contestants are so lucky to get on paradise like lacy mark like literally so grateful for the opportunity and they're not too good for it they're actually like not good enough for it you know and then there are some contestants within the hierarchy who would never even like of course she's like married but like lauren lane like whatever you know what i mean like you you either are too good for it you graduate out of the franchise or there's just like not even a remote possibility or there are the people who are like the perfect paradise people it's usually the runner-up they get so much respect hannah g raven raven um even the men it's

harder with the men because usually the season of bachelor and paradise is filmed too close to the season of the bachelorette so the guy who's second still has a chance of being The Bachelor and he doesn't want to go on Bachelor in Paradise. And that always fucks with the ratio of good girls to good guys because we're just getting these like guys who were sent home week one and all these girls who were like runner-ups. Golden eggs. Golden girls.

Yeah, I agree. But so the fact that there's a lead going on is so bizarre to me because she really, she's very popular within the franchise she's the host of the bachelor happy hour podcast so she's obviously very high ranked in this hierarchy i think it's so bizarre but you're right like it's definitely case by case because like when chris souls was gonna go on like definitely so cute but like chris souls there's just something like pjami about him and he never like chased anything after the show the show like he just like went back to his farm.

So it was like kind of earnest. Whereas like Becca's like a full-fledged podcaster, influencer, full-time working within Bachelor Nation. Like I do think this is weird. I think this is weird. I really do. Like she's going to be on the beach like grocery store Joe with like guys that she wrote off. Wrote off that she now has to like reconsider yeah that would be so weird no it's it's not normal I I like I think it's weird I think it's weird but you know what

I would feel that way I got paid so much like who was a single bachelor who didn't work out with their Nick Vile no but he's in a relationship now he is oh yeah um let me think who are the bachelors colton he's single but who was after colton my brain's not working okay wait so colton got off of becca season and runner up was hannah brown hannah brown season produced Colton Hannah Brown season produced Peter the pilot perfect example okay if Peter the pilot was going on Bachelor in Paradise I would think it's weird okay if Peter the pilot was going on Bachelor in Paradise I would literally take a baseball bat to my television just because I've never met someone who's so unlikable on television in my entire life who's has such poor decision skills when it comes

to his love life and went on a show about his love life I would not watch if Peter the Pilot went on I'm just letting you know also what the hell happened between him and Kelly I don't know but he had the worst season ever and we got no explanation like who was the bad wait he went from Hannah Ann to Madison what's her name Maddie Maddie Maddie Puitt yeah maddie back to hannah ann then to kelly he was when kelly was always the answer he was he was he got engaged to hannah ann on the show how he chose hannah yeah and then switched to maddie yeah and then ended up with kelly right when like all along we thought it was kelly who was number three because kelly went home four yeah Yeah. Who was number three? I don't know. Who was the bachelorette after Peter Weber? Okay.

So Kelly, Kelsey Weir. It was probably the last season we went. Oh, Claire. Oh my God. It's just too much. It's too much. Is this hurting my brain? This exercise?

No. Just take me back to like the. Caitlin Bristow days, the Jojojo fletcher the ben higgins like those were the days those were the days and i'm still gonna watch bachelor in paradise and i do think like becca's presence will be an interesting thing considering like let's see who's there like is blake um balakale balakale yeah what. Hortsman. Hortsman. Like, if he's there, he's Becca's runner-up. Like, I guess. He's not going.

I'm pretty sure he said he was done with the franchise. As he should be. I saw one of his Q&As. But, like, that's just so crazy. Anyways, it will be interesting to watch, but I just feel like for her, I can't believe she's doing this. I hope she got paid a lot of money. Me too, because, like, technically she is better than this. Yeah.

She's just, like like she had the coveted position that so many people would love to have within the franchise like was a lead tons of followers tapped to host the official Bachelorette

podcast like I can't imagine why she would take the step down. Also like realistically if there's anybody from the franchise that she's interested in like she can DM

them and meet them. So is she going on for love, the paycheck or the followers? I also feel like the Bachelor and Bachelor franchise is so bizarre because so many different seasons like really kind of target different age groups. And I don't know if like the guys coming off

of Katie's season are age appropriate for Becca. So it's just something to think about. So maybe the guys from Claire's season are. Yes. But they were also young yes yes it'll really be mixed it'll be so bizarre when did they film Bachelor in Paradise because I don't know but they have stills coming out of everyone on the beach they we saw David Spade first look that'll be weird to see yeah I probably I'm gonna watch Bachelor in Paradise also because Love Island's almost over and like you'll have a whole isn't it crazy how like I don't mind watching one hour five times a week of Love Island but two hours of The Bachelor is just unreasonable I think that is it

is unreasonable also a little Love Island update I don't know if you saw but like a lot of the castmates who have been voted off did an Instagram live last night Cash and Cinco were together and they were Instagram living with Amy and Wes who are still together and like Cash and Cinco were like making out on the live like they're fully together it's crazy that there's more couples outside of the villa than there are inside and that's a problem that they have to fix for next season agreed because people like Amy and Wes should have been held on to people like Cash and Cinco should have been given an opportunity to rekindle even though I do blame Cash for that they were given the opportunity she was given and even though he did fuck around she chose not to be him. And so she had to sleep in the bed.

She lied, even though her heart was with Cinco. Yeah, I agree. But you're right. There is a problem that all these couples are on the outside.

We run on nuts.com. We're nuts for nuts. Our next story, a little new couple news. Lily Rose Depp and Austin Butler were caught in a lip lock out in London. Johnny Depp's daughter with model Vanessa Paradis was snapped over the weekend. Wait, what? She was snapped over the weekend. Johnny Depp's daughter.

With the model. It was a weird way. Which model? Vanessa Paradis. That's the, that's Lily Rose's mom. Oh, that's so funny. I don't know why, like at all. Like I have no explanation for this.

Like why I just assumed that Lily Rose Depp's mom was Kate Moss like I don't know they look alike they do but like I had no proof and actually never really sat down and thought about it just knew she was like a famous kid yeah and I'm like Depp oh yeah Johnny Depp she does look like Kate Moss that's Kate Moss I think that's like and she's like a really up and coming model and like she lives in London I like for sure thought that her mom was Kate was that's funny Kate Moss yeah you learn something new every day but her mom's a nobody is what you're saying she's a model maybe in her day but I'm unfamiliar with her work she was snapped over the weekend locked in an embrace with the switched up birth actor Austin Butler in London following

a dinner date for those of you who don't know Austin Butler he's the how dare you he's the ex of Vanessa Hudgens they dated for such a long time that was a know Austin Butler, he's the ex. How dare you? He's the ex of Vanessa Hudgens. They dated for such a long time. That was a lot to digest. And he's from the Carrie Diaries. He played the love interest. And he's just like a great actor. And he also just got cast in that Elvis biopic. He got the job a million girls wanted.

Oh, he beat out Harry Styles, Ansel Elgort, and Miles Teller for the role of Elvis Presley in like this Baz Luhrmann biopic that's coming out whenever and he's so handsome and he's always blonde but then he went brown and then you could really see him as Elvis and he's gonna be a big star I'm just like actually a really big Austin Butler fan mostly because I loved the Carrie Diaries like I thought they were such an underrated show right it was like a prequel tv show about Sex and the City like Anna Sophia Robb played Carrie in high school it It was so good.

He was also in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Like one day Austin Butler is going to be a name we don't have to explain. And so honestly like when him and Vanessa Hudgens broke up. I just kind of want to take you through my journey. Vanessa Anne. I was like devastated because I thought these were like true OTP. I thought they were really well matched. I thought that there was so much proof in how long they'd been together.

They weren't thirsty. They were just like a good couple solid. And I was kind of devastated when they broke up. And then after they broke up, like Vanessa Ann just like really went downhill, like making really bad decisions, like that weird video that she made. She was the first person to get canceled during COVID. And then I just feel like she just like dropped the ball on her career in a lot of ways. And I was like, you know what? I think maybe their breaking up was the best thing for us and Butler because he has a really big bright future ahead of him and now him being with Lily Rose Kate Moss's daughter I think this is so sick like so great I'm thrilled that's my personal journey with this

story if you want to share yours no for me I agree with most of what you said my only concern here is like that they're not in a relationship no that they're not in a relationship but that they like were just like kissed and we happen to see it yeah like you don't want to get our hopes like yeah I don't know if like this is a shipbuilding exercise because the pictures were not like they didn't look staged no they looked like just steamy like you know had a drink needed to make out Austin Butler was here he's 29 and she's 22 did you have a concern about their age no like okay obviously no like compared to what I see in Hollywood she's 22 she's an adult and 29 I mean that's really not crazy no compared to what we've seen in Hollywood that's extremely age appropriate you know and I really believe like if you're 22 like you are able to make your

own decisions and she's deciding to be in a relationship with someone who's 29 I don't think that's crazy if they were 32 and 39 would we say anything no right I think it's fine yeah I think it's fine I think it's a cute couple I don't want to get my hopes up but I think it's really cute too makes a lot of sense but also she was previously linked to Timothee Chalamet yeah and I think a lot of people had a lot of ships out for them and I didn't I don't know I don't at all I actually think like if his career goes the way that we think it's gonna go and he is like dating Lily Rose Depp that is Hollywood like royalty in the making like I can't even think of who I would compare it to it's like a Brad and Angelina like

even though she's not like an actress you know what I mean like it's a true power couple yeah I agree well I'm so excited for them when I saw those pictures I was like really excited it was like a very unstaged steamy messy right like it was not sexy like it was like kind of gross but like in a good way like they're having a good time yeah no I'm really happy for them two young successful people I cannot wait for that Elvis thing like I I hope he kills it like I'm really rooting for him me too we were rooting for you we were all rooting for you are you ready for our next story which is even more couple news about one of claudia's i think least favorite people oh my god you have so many yeah i know you wouldn't be able to guess brooks leitch

it's going instagram official monster he has a new leading lady in his life just one week after being spotted out with packing on the pda bro Brooks Laich is going public on Instagram. Brooks Laich. With his new relationship. The former NHL player and former husband of Julianne Hough posted a picture Sunday. She deserves so much better than that. Mm-hmm. At the Four Seasons Resort in Hawaii, where the couple arrived last week for a romantic getaway. In the photo, Laich and his new girlfriend, who is also an athlete, her name is Katrine,

walk toward each other from opposite sides of the infinity pool pretty cool and artsy does make you wonder who took the picture um totally like the poor bellman like another one Mr. Leitch like Mr. Leitch how many do you need me to take Mr. Leitch you like this angle yeah exactly I mean honestly like I have so much hate in my heart for this person and I don't even know him like all I know is him from the purview of the Julianne Hough situation like I don't even know what sport he plays like and I don't care I don't want to know I don't want to know I'm I love like the how little information I have on him like he just seems so thirsty to me for someone who was supposed to be like a supportive husband you know yeah when he thought he was a main character it was supposed to be about Julianne yeah he thought he was the main

character in a relationship where Julianne was clearly the star and I'm sorry in these types of like famous relationships most of the time unless you're both a-listers which they are not there is one star and there's one supporting man and or supporting person and he just thought it was him and it's not no it's not and this story actually makes me happy because for a while there it was like are Brooks Leitch and Julianne like getting back together? No I hope not. So I don't think that they are and this is good because I need Julianne to like move on to bigger and

better things. Maybe Ryan Seacrest is single again. No I really kind of shipped her and even though they never dated they just did a movie together. Josh Duhamel and he's single. Oh I don't see that at all. I think they're cute. Sure that would be cute but I just don a movie together. Josh Duhamel. And he's single. Oh, I don't see that at all. I think they're cute. Sure, that would be cute, but I just don't see it. I think literally, I don't know if any person in Hollywood

has a worse track record in terms of dating than Julianne Hough. Why? Brooke Slate, Ryan Seacrest. Ryan Seacrest is cool. That's cool. Very cool. Compatibility, no. No.

I just think she doesn't have a good track record. Like, if she let us set her up with someone, we could kill it. Who would you set her up with? Derek. I was thinking that, too. Just because their names are always together because they're brother and sister. You know, it's like Juliet and Derek Hough. They sound like they're married.

Yeah, no. Exactly what I was gonna say like i just think optics wise their life would be so much better if they were mr and mrs huff instead of brother and sister huff like they have similar interests they're like both equally good looking like i actually think they are the perfect couple yeah in like a shakespearean kind of way in a different world yeah exactly so it's just something to think about that's what's new with brooks leach i know you never miss an opportunity to say his name no brooks if you had not brought him up i probably would not have thought of his name for like another 15 years and that would have hurt you that's how like irrelevant he is yeah i know but i still think

that like their wedding is one of the most beautiful i've seen like the lake the boat her dress yeah i think about it all, I think about it all the time. Think about it all the time. It was like the dream wedding. And it made me mad that I didn't get married on the lake. Yeah. And no, when I saw those pictures and it was before I ever got married

and it was just like a bummer knowing like no matter what I do, that would never be my wedding because that's just like not who I am. Theo's eating your Clif Bar. There's nothing in there. Oh, okay. He's just wanting to know what flavor Auntie had. Okay. She had chocolate chip. Okay. If just wanting to know what flavor auntie had okay she

had chocolate chip okay if anyone wanted to know he's like what the fuck um all right well thank you for ruining my day I really couldn't do this job without you

mm-hmm are you ready for our fifth and final story which is a little apt casting news capping news yeah Catherine Zeta Jones has been cast as Morticia wait

Catherine Zeta Jones has been cast oh okay in. Wait, Catherine Zeta-Jones has been cast, oh, okay. In Wednesday Addams Netflix series. I mean, obviously. Yeah, Catherine Zeta-Jones is about to get scary. The Oscar winner has recently been cast as Morticia in the upcoming Wednesday Addams series on Netflix. The actress will star in the eight episode series

alongside cast members Jenna Ortega and Luis Guzman. Ortega will star as Wednesday and Guzman will play Gomez Adams, Morticia's husband. Luis Guzman from How to Make it in America, such an underrated actor. Like his show got canceled, How to Make it in America. He's so talented. I just wanted to put that out there. Yeah, this is like also just exciting. There's going to be like an Adams family miniseries coming to Netflix. I'm sure it will be extremely well done. I feel like a lot of people really, like, part of their personality complex is, like, Wednesday Addams and the Addams Family.

Can I ask you a question? Mm-hmm. When you think of the Addams Family, what do you think of? I don't know if what I'm going to say is, like, what you're thinking. It's a song. The Addams Family. There's Olivia and Margot, Claudia and Jackie. They're all a little wacky.

The Ashtray family. Ba-da-ba-dum. They made that song up about us in camp. It's really cute. That had not reentered my brain in 15 years. Oh, it's all I think of when I think of that. I've actually, this is like a personality thing. I don't even know what the Addams Family is.

I've never seen one morsel of it. I think it was a little bit before my time. And like, I know nothing about it. And what's the difference between Wednesday Addams and like the girl from The Orphan? Like, I don't, I don't, like that whole thing. Like, I can't, I don't understand it. No, it's, it's just not something we've ever delved into. Like, because it's just a little spooky.

And like you said before our time, Wednesday Addams has the braids and the middle part and she's like grumpy at camp right wait what and then there's the movie The Orphan where the girl literally wears braids and wears the white collar and it's like is this part of the Addams family I don't know no that's not and so there's the Addams family but Wednesday Addams is a star and she has her own show like I just don't get it I don't get it either but I think that maybe this series is meant for us like we could have like a little experience with the Adams family and Catherine Zeta-Jones would be real is like looks just like the mom yeah in a premium way yeah so that's pretty cool and I'm happy for all the Adams family stands out there who are going to be getting this premium content because there's a lot of yeah for sure like people

who are obsessed with like murder yeah or like Wednesday Adams you know the Halloween costume yep where you're like with the part like that yeah yeah yeah so that's your apt casting news for the day captain news um all right the show is not even close to being over because we've got dear toasters which is so exciting and dear toasters is brought to you by better help is there something interfering with your happiness or preventing you from achieving your goals better help is here to assess your needs and match you with your own licensed professional therapist where you can start communicating in under 48 hours.

We have two submissions and an update from someone I know you're going to be really excited to hear from. Oh, my God. I'm so excited. But first, excuse me, our submissions.

Hey, Claudia and Jackie. This Dear Toaster's email has been a long time coming. My friend and I listen to the podcast every day during work, of course, and it's basically just the best thing ever. Well, here it goes. I had these two besties at work. We literally did everything together. I was 20 weeks pregnant with my second child, and I couldn't decide on her name.

I was between, let's just say, Olivia and Margo for her names. Okay, such amazing, beautiful names. And I decided to share the names with the co-workers. Uh-oh, big mistake, huge. They said both are super cute names. We love them. The weekend before I was getting induced, I finally decided on the name Margo. Saturday afternoon, one of the girls snaps a picture of a new puppy she got.

What? My other BFF, What Were I, and I were ecstatic for her and asked her what she's going to name the puppy. She replies, we're thinking Margo. I literally died inside. I said, are you joking? She's like, no, Fred, her douchey husband who controls everything, really likes it. I replied, don't you think it's kind of weird considering I'm naming my baby girl Margo

on Monday? No reply. Fast forward to Sunday. She hasn't dropped the name. I finally text her and say, I have to be honest. This really hurts me that you're going to use the exact same name I've told you about for five months. Can you find another name? There's literally a million.

She posted a picture of her puppy Sunday night on her Insta and the name and everything before I even had my baby. Am I overreacting? What am I supposed to do? Would love any help. This girl's a fucking bitch. A fucking bitch. Bitch. You're not overreacting. No, you're underreacting. This girl's a fucking bitch. A fucking bitch. Bitch. You're not overreacting.

No, you're underreacting. This girl's disgusting. Disgusting. But you know what? It's actually, it's fine. Like, now you've seen her true colors. Like, that is such a disrespectful thing to do. Reminds me of Shep Rose naming his dog Craig.

Just, like, so gross. Disgusting. And, like, still affects me. Me too. I think about it all the time. And every time little Craig is on the show, I'm just like, oh, wow, you did that to your friend. Like, so wrong.

So I would just cut this person out of your life. Because it might not, like, first of all, it is a big deal. And it's also indicative of such a terrible person. Like she obviously has no character. She has no backbone. If her husband's like bossing her around for the dog's name and she knows where she got it from,

like she's spineless. I hate this woman. Hey, and I just want to also say like don't not use it for everyone out there please stop using beautiful human names for dogs yeah I agree sometimes I think about how like I really regret naming Theo that wasn't an attack on you no but I think I've said that before I think I was having this conversation recently with Margot or Olivia. I love the name Theodore and like I would love to name like my kid Theodore one day and like because actually not Theodore like Theo. Yeah. But like I took it. Yeah. It's no his name should have been Mufi. Okay. No no it just should have been um Archie. But Archie's also a great name for a baby. I love the name Archie. I love the name Archie. But wait. But hear me out. It's disrespectful

to name a dog after a person. But is it disrespectful to name a person after the dog? I just think it shouldn't be done. Right. That's why we need like just delineation. Like keep it up with like the funny. Dog names, human names. Yeah. But I also feel

like when you chose Theo it was right before that name popped off again no i'm so like trendy it's disgusting yeah no it's really true like you you didn't know it's not it's not like if you had chose it today yeah no i mean that's one thing because he's so grown and big but like this girl this girl this friend how about this you brought back the name theo it was a self-fulfilling like trendsetter yeah trendsetter I just I have to really stress like this girl is so disgusting if you ever talk to her again like I'll be so disappointed in you to have a dog named Margo is so weird Margo's like a fabulous girl who goes to France like and she eats croissant like French dog like it just makes no sense it makes no sense and also like this is why you shouldn't

be friends with your co-workers. No this is why you shouldn't tell people what you're thinking for baby names. A hundred percent. I didn't know it was gonna be. Shayla. When you said this story like I knew it was gonna be a problem. I didn't know it was gonna be a dog which takes us like a whole other level of disrespect but the first mistake you made was telling your co-workers that you were going between the names Olivia and Margo. Yep and they telling your co-workers that you were going between the names Olivia and Margo. Yep. And they're your co-workers.

And you don't even know them. Yeah. Absolutely not. You have to take a little bit of responsibility for you bringing this on yourself. Yeah. And I understand like being friends with your co-workers sometimes you can't help yourself. Of course. You spend so much time at work.

You met someone at work and like they just happen to be your friend person. You know? Excuse me. Like you literally met your husband at work. Right. And then I left the job. Yeah. As you should. Because like you just shouldn't shit where you eat agree you just should not and I also didn't like the job but yeah still I would have left so you were fired

no I wasn't she wasn't no I wasn't um you were fired from your next job uh the morning breath no no that was two jobs later okay all right next up good morning Jackie and Claudia this week I started a new job and I already find myself in a pickle thinking what would Claudia and Jackie have to say about this? On Monday, I started a position in a new hotel in Manhattan set to open in September.

Oh, I'm going to find out what hotel this is. Oh, can we get a free room, penthouse? It's a dream role, especially after losing my last event sales hotel job due to COVID. Side note, I'm the toaster who worked with Claudia. Oh, I know her. I don't want to...

Ball per spot. I don't want to ball per spot, but I know her. I've worked with claudia oh i know her i don't want to um blow up her spot i don't want to blow up her spot but i know her i've worked with this girl the new hotel is still under construction on monday i stopped on a bench to change from my flats into my work heels on the one of the construction workers told me good luck on the interview to which i replied thank you i already got the job it's my first day wednesday i arrived with two large bags so this same guy walked over to open the door for me. He told me his name, and I said thank you and shared my name as well. Four hours later, I receive an email that a package has arrived for me. I walked down to the lobby to three dozen long stem roses with a card from him.

While incredibly flattering, I was mortified. Now I had this crazy extravagant floral arrangement to put on my desk at a job I'd been at for under a week, with no good explanation where it came from. I'm very afraid everyone's going to think the new girl's slutting it up on her first week with the construction crew.

I did text the guy thanking for the flowers. He included his number in the card and now he asked me to lunch. I don't think I'm attracted to this man and I couldn't pick him

out of a police lineup if my life depended on it. I'm going to see him every morning until the hotel's completed. Do I shut it down? Give it a chance? Please assist.

A corporate hospitality. First of all, you must be, you must be the most beautiful. No, like yeah nothing to be beautiful but to have men just like falling over that doesn't happen anymore like and that like here's the thing i want to say before we dive in like i want you to like pat yourself on the back i just want to say like this story in some context like is extremely romantic the beginning of a hallmark movie also creepy but these things don't happen in New York and even when he said good luck on the interview I was like who even and then you said it's not you guys like had a conversation like that just doesn't happen in New

York no I agree and so like I think the you know the dreamer in me is like how beautiful but the realistic cynic in me is like this is dangerous like this doesn't we should be like we're so jaded like this should be romantic it's weird no it's weird in this city yeah no it's just not normal people don't just talk to people they've never met and send flowers right like that just doesn't happen maybe the sky is like a diamond in the rough like a really old soul but I'm inclined to just go with creepy yeah no I agree just because of like the odds being in New York and like what like it's just also I feel you like that you like are embarrassed like by these big flowers at your

desk throw them out like for sure oh no I think that's so cool everyone would be like oh my god she's so fabulous and you clearly are fabulous so it's like you're the girl who like no you're clearly stunted on these co-workers like I just teach me your ways like it's not even about like physical appearances you also have to be like have, have this confidence and, like, this charm just to, like, have people, like, dazzled by you. Yeah. I'm highly impressed. Okay, but her question is, what should she do?

Like, how does she, like, deal with him? How does she go forward? Because she's not interested in him, but he's going to be working outside the hotel every single day. Take the back door. Yeah. Work from home. Look for a side entrance I'm just like operating

under the guys that it's like you know this isn't a Hallmark movie it's a lifetime just say you have a husband but it's not Hallmark it's lifetime oh my god no it's one or the other and like I don't think we're gonna know which one it is but you're not even interested in him so it doesn't even matter yeah take the back door yeah or you just start sleeping at the sleeping at the hotel so you never have to leave just get buy one of the rooms there get a room sleep there work you never have to leave and then the construction will be done before you know it yeah all right finally this is our update from a girl that i know you've been thinking like she's been living rent-free in your mind oh my god give it jackie and claudia i have an update for you for a refresher i'm the girl

that was contemplating joe with his cattle ranch or my current boyfriend that I had been with for six years. I can truly say that you guys changed my life and I'm so grateful for you toasters. Yeah. After listening to you answer my question on the podcast, I realized that I was indeed more in love with the idea of Joe than Joe himself. She was more hooked about like living on a ranch. A hundred percent.

Also, Claudia was right and I liked his cattle ranch more than I liked the man. After hearing your third party perspective it allowed me to take a step back and realize how great my existing relationship was we've since hung out

with Joe and I now realize he's nothing of the sort and I had my ranch goggles on that's what we said did we say that yeah she put in quotes from ranch goggles

I'm dying thanks to Jackie's advice about being on the same page about family and kids we were able to sit down and have a discussion fast forward a little over a year we just got married in july we now live on our own cattle ranch with cows horses dogs and cats and have plans to start trying to get pregnant next

spring i loved the show before but your guys's advice truly changed my life and i'm forever thankful i'm gonna cry oh my god so she's married they're thinking about having a family and she got her ranch and she didn't have to leave her man and it's like you can be the rancher you don't have to marry the rancher no and the thing is is like I'm literally getting misty-eyed like the thing is is like you can have it all this girl has it all this girl is inspiring me this is like I feel like this is like everyone's dream and she made it happen for herself she it's only been months since we gave this advice. She said like a little, it's been almost a year.

Maybe it's a year. But like she believed it and she achieved it. If you can believe, you can achieve. That was stunning. I'm so happy for you. Like you got a ranch, bitch. Yes. And you didn't have to leave your man.

Can we come over? Yeah, totally. Like you need help on the farm. I'll be like Lorelai from. Do you know any of any. Hannah Montana movie. Any adjacent ranches for sale. Totally. Oh my god. I'm inspired. I'm really happy for you. That's so great. Those were dear toasters. And I feel like what a great way to end the show. Yeah.
