Good morning, Millennials. Welcome back to the Morning Toes. Happy day after pub day. I am so sad. You're sad and you're also feeling as you should after a pub day, which is hungover. Um, yeah, yeah. I'm, my brain isn't working, so apologies. It's been a while since you've given us a hungover episode. I know, and they always turn out to be funny, but like, you know what it's like for me. Like, it's fucking terrible. I'm so unwell.well like we pushed the show back to this episode probably will be out a little bit later than usual but like and I did all the things you know I had the bagel and the orange juice and a chug water took Advil like but I'm not better yeah you just need the day

I just need the bed okay we'll get you to bed but first we have a job to do. Of course. And before we launch into all of that, we need to talk about pub day. Pub, like. Pub day, pub day, gotta get down on pub day. The thing is, is like, it felt different than any other day. And I don't know if it was just like for me, but like the world. But not for me. The world had different energy yesterday. Like, I don't know if the world was excited about my book, but it really felt like the world. But not for me. The world had different energy yesterday. Like I don't know if the world was excited about my book, but it really felt like they were.

Yeah. So many people were excited. And I think your world was so excited. So that's really all that. And the world. Yeah. And yes. Like the whole globe.

Yeah, I agree. So tell us a little bit about your day. Some of the highs. I don't think there was even one low. No, there literally was not. But I don't want to give away too much about my day because I did vlog the whole day for patreon. But it was just a fabulous day. Like it was work but it was so fun. I was so tired

because I was literally up. I don't want to spoil it but on the vlog I do say what time I was awake. Yeah and it was just very exciting, very overwhelming, very emotional you know. yes I saw on your Instagram story I was like crying all day and I think that's what's supposed to happen on pub day yeah I can imagine it's a very emotional thing to put out a book this is like you know your life this is very personal to you yes and to have other people consume it and then like share their personal experiences it's all very emotional so that's what it is like people like my message my instagram it was like my birthday on steroids like so many messages so many tags and like you know

that that is like what means the most to me and it was just so exciting like every time it's like 99 plus people mentioned you and your story and messages and the messages of people sharing you and your story and messages and the messages of people sharing by the people in my life sharing like how they remember things and then like people who are strangers just like sharing their stories with grief and it was just like it was overwhelming to like intake all that emotion yeah it's very emotional emotional information yeah but I mean you're doing something right I'm just thrilled you know it's just charting all over the place everyone's loving the book and it's you know it's just now you get to enjoy the fruits of your labor like yes you this is like the payoff of a secret project all year you've had to hold this thing in now I understand now it's like bursting at the seams

it's like vomiting out of you now I I understand. You know? I understand. No, it's such a great day for me. Yes, and today, I know you're hungover today, but today you're doing one of the most important interviews of your life. Oh my god, I really have to get better. Because I'm taking it really seriously, and at present moment, it's not gonna work. No, but you have hours to get better. are recording the redheads with claudia and all the girls and we're really excited it's our first author spotlight and we have said the author's studio we each have come up with our own like questions personal questions for you and we're also taking so many questions from our listeners so email your questions about the book

gotten just like a standard manicure not gel in years and I had like no time on Monday and for GMN

I didn't want to have bad nails so I just got like a polish Monday. It is Wednesday morning. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 four five six seven of them are chipped yeah I mean I never get gel manicures really because

I just they're too harmful to my nails my nails are so delicate and brittle and like they grow really nicely but then they break like on below my nail line and then it's just a whole thing um I got this manicure on Friday it still looks decent but then I also um like below my nail line and then it's just a whole thing um I got this manicure on Friday it still looks decent but then I also um like cracked my nail with a potato peeler like I literally oh no no no no no no no no no don't finish the story like I know oh yeah and so this little... Light of mine! This little stub of mine. I'm gonna let it shine. This little stub of mine. I'm gonna let it shine. This little stub of mine. I'm gonna let it shine.

Let it shine. Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine. Yes! So good. Yes. Also, I'd be RDH if I didn't wish a happy birthday to Dana because she listens to the show and her birthday is so important to her. Redhead queen, singer-songwriter. TNN queen. I think we should sing MDB for her in honor of her birthday. Oh, wow. Okay. how does it kick off? Down the toilet, out the sewer, into all that gross manure. Seal the water,

spinning round. Then I slam the lid back down. My duty brown, my duty brown, my duty brown, my duty into my mouth goes the food now into my stomach down it goes now the bridge is tough yeah my duty brown my duty brown my duty brown my duty brown Brown Such a good song. Happy birthday, Dana. So, yeah, it's just an exciting time to be someone who enjoys to read, you know? It's so true. You know?

And who enjoys listening to podcasts, audiobooks available now at girlwithnojob.com. I know. Did you see that a lot of people are really enjoying your audiobooks so much so that it's number one in the audiobook store? Yeah, it is.

But, like, there is a thread in Toast After Dark about how if you fast forward it to 1.2 then you're talking the same speed that you talk on the toast. Yes a lot of people are feeling very shooketh by the speed at which I'm reading on the audiobook and that's because I was not in control. Like they told me to slow down every five minutes and honestly I did listen to a snippet of it this morning and like it does sound weird because it's just not how I talk. Yes. But if you put it on 1.2 speed, people say. It's what you're used to. It'll be more a little bit something like this. Perfect. So I think without further ado, let's dive into what we've got to do because we have a lot to do today and you have a lot of napping to make up for. I have so many naps to take,

like you have no idea. Yeah. So without further ado, it's time for the Fast Ties stories that you need to know before you wake up and take a bite out of your morning toast. But I did think I was going to hit up some more bookstores today. I mean, that's very ambitious of me, given the fact that, like, I'm literally broken on the inside. But I did want to hit up some more bookstores because, you know, yesterday I went on a journey to a couple different Barnes & Nobles.

And I have to say, like, if ever one day, like, we want to quit, I am getting a job at Barnes and Noble. Like, it was literally the most fucking peaceful place. So quiet. Like, so much silence. And all they sell is, like, board games and books and chocolate and coffee. Your favorite things. No, no.

It was so peaceful. Like, I was literally jealous of the manager. I'm like, I want your job. Maybe get a part-time job. No, literally. That sounds heavenly. If borders were still open, because those were, like the manager. I'm like, I want your job. Maybe get a part-time job. No, literally. That sounds heavenly. If Borders were still open, because those were, like, more, like, iconic, like, clubhouse, like, vibes, I would have worked at a Borders.

Like, or, you know, like, I don't know. I just want to win the lottery so I can buy, like, a bunch of Barnes and Nobles. Yeah, I feel that. It was sickening. But I digress. I'm clearly suffering from RDH. And the only way to get over that is to let you guys know that today's episode has brought you... Hitting her harder than ever.

Okay. First story, guys. The letters were like moving. The tea is so hot today. Okay. What is it? Girl with no job, Claudia Oshry, spills on her plastic surgeries, including chin implant, Botox, and lip fillers in her new book.

Okay, so yes, it's true. It's true. I'm becoming somewhat of like a Joan Rivers, Janice Dickinson. I was going to say Janice Ian. Yeah, like that's my legacy, and I'm so, so, so proud. Yeah. Girl with no jobs, Claudia Aschre grew her Instagram following by posting relatable relatable content which is why she decided to be open with her audience about her plastic surgery the 26 year old revealed all the details about her age aging me i think that your age is germane

to the story because it's like it is you know at your age sometimes determines how much plastic surgery like it's important to know how old the person was. Yeah. About her chin surgery, Botox, and lip fillers in her new book. Claudia released her memoir on Tuesday where she explains why she decided

to get the procedures done. Some because she wanted them, some because she wanted to seem, quote, cool. Wow, that's pathetic. No, but like, you literally wrote it and you said that.

It's pathetic. The social media influencer admitted she'd always hated her double chin and while she could hide other aspects of her body, she was unhappy with aspects of her body that she wasn't happy with she couldn't do the same with her chin the decision to get my chin procedure took me all of two seconds to make she writes so yeah girls no job is being super honest in her

new book about all of the cosmetic procedures that she has had done and i guess there are a lot i mean knowing you it's like, I wouldn't think of you as a plastic surgery queen. Me neither. But reading this article, I'm like, yeah, I guess that's more than your average 26-year-old. Yeah, no, it's like, I definitely like have made the foray into plastic surgery,

but like, I don't know. I don't think of myself as like a plastic queen, but like maybe I am and I'm okay with that. But I also, plastic surgery, I think now it encompasses like a lot of different things, but doesn't it require you to have something plastic in your body? Well, no. And like, you know, like a silicone breast.

I'm sure. But I think it's also just like cosmetic surgery when like at the end of the day, lip fillers and Botox don't count. They dissolve. Like it's not like I'm changing my face forever. I think that these days Botox is just considered plastic surgery, even though. Cause it's done by a plastic surgeon. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. I just love like this article, like referring to me just as like a regular celebrity. And I, I so appreciate whoever wrote this article. Like I didn't, I didn't pitch this article.

Like literally. It's in the sun. It just came up on its own accord. And that has happened to me. Articles, you know, sneaking up on me and they're never as positive as this. And just came up on its own accord. And that has happened to me. Articles, you know, sneaking up on me. And they're never as positive as this.

And I think that this is so exciting. And what's the author's name? Rachel Ellenbogen. Rachel Ellenbogen. You sound like a fucking queen. And I absolutely adore you. Thank you for this opportunity. And I respect the sun.

I don't even know. I know it's a British publication and they sometimes are guilty of perpetuating Kelly's mindless news because I see them. This is Claudia's mindless news and I feel like that's all you're looking for. Wait.

Claudia's mindless news. Claudia's. No, I feel, wait. I feel like I've just made a connection. Well, you made it actually. This is must what it feels like to be Kelly Clarkson. I can't fucking talk today. This must be what it feels like to be Kelly Ripa.

Like, this is what she does. She's just like, oh, everyone's just reading about my mindlessness. Yeah, except that if we were to read an article about Kelly's plastic surgery, that would be not mindless at all. No, that would be super interesting. Yeah, for sure. The sun, get on it. Rachel.

Yeah, fine. get the tea i got i gotta get in communication with rage because i need to write more flattering articles about me rage if you hear this like please keep going don't stop no email me i will give you like my address you can send the pop paparazzi like just hit me up girlfriend hit me yeah you'll bring her with you next time you go to dr gizzi yes dr gizzi on me in exchange for you know one good mindless article a week i think that's fair i think that's more than kelly gives i yeah no kelly doesn't get much that's what i've heard you know through my contacts okay next story another celeb who's spilling the tea colton underwood details every step of his split with cassie randolph for the first time. Okay, well, jump to the page where he's talking about his restraining order.

Yeah, no, I didn't see that part in this roundup from E! News. Basically what he says is... Where did he say this? He penned a new final chapter to his book. And I'm not sure where he posted it or like if you buy the book now. That's weird. Yeah, I'm not sure where he posted it or like if you buy the book now. That's weird. Yeah I'm not sure where he posted his new chapter but he just wrote like the final chapter which is literally what we said last week like you wrote the book before the final chapter happened. Right. And so then he like went back and wrote a chapter. It's kind of shady of him to like do that on my

pub day like. Yeah no he's just trying to ride your coattails. No, I think it's really uncool. I know. But he was inspired by what we said on the show. What can you blame him? That's true. OK, so he wrote a book. So he wrote another chapter explaining what happened between the two of them. And he made it seem like very, you know, falling out of love. And he doesn't really address the restraining order. But he did say like he he didn't accept that they were breaking up.

You know, he didn't want it to be true. He didn't want to put on an instagram statement because he just didn't want that to be the truth like he loved cass but he felt like she felt like he didn't understand her like being from her like small town and just wanting to be like a chill girl small town she's from like the she's from the beach town i don't know if i would say huntington beach is like a small town i'm pretty sure he called yeah, he called her a small town girl who liked the slow pace and quiet of her beachside hometown. Okay, Nicholas Sparks over here. Like, first of all, when you, I just think it's important to know,

like, well, yes, okay, wherever Cassie may be from might technically be a town that is small. If you're going to refer to someone as small town, like, they better be wearing cowboy boots. Like, that's just, it's not a good descriptor you know yeah from one author to another he says Cass felt like there was pressure on her to commit one way or the other because of our relationship because of the way our relationship unfolded so publicly on tv I tried to give her space she didn't feel like I saw all the different sides of her

especially the small town girl who liked the slow pace and quiet of her beachside hometown girl I sometimes sometimes she would say outright I feel like you don't understand me all the different sides of her, especially the small town girl who liked the slow pace and quiet of her beach side hometown. Sometimes she would say outright, I feel like you don't understand me. He said that the issue was pushed to the back burner when he got COVID and like her family took care of him. Torture. It's like you want to break up with someone and now he's got COVID in your basement.

Yeah. But then he recovered and all the issues came back to the forefront. He said it was when Cass and I finally tried to grab back a bit of normalcy that I realized the virus was only part of a much larger problem. After more than a month of being cooped up in her family's home both of us were feeling overwhelmed and smothered and eager to return to our respective apartments where we could enjoy our own space. Before we left though she took me aside and told me she was struggling with everything in our relationship and didn't know what to do. My head spun like one of those characters in a cartoon.

What? She was struggling with everything? He said once the shock wore off, he realized that the misfires and miscues between them were actually more like one of those proverbial death by a thousand paper cuts. No. He's just seeing inspiration from Claudia Asht asher taylor swift nicholas sparks did he just fucking quote taylor swift yeah though that is like a common phrase that she made even more thousand girls so he's saying it's a lot of little things and i just um i need to hear from i need to cassie's chapter i'm really yeah i'm so uninterested in hearing about the relationship from the perspective of the nut job who got a

restraining order like i want to hear from fucking cassie and i know she don't want to talk about it because she's like can i be my own person like colton is just like milking this breakup when he really should publicly stop talking about it because it reminds us of how fucking crazy he was like we were starting to forget there's been like two crazy seasons of The Bachelor. Like we've moved on. Not top of mind. I think he could just like go and, you know, do his thing. But he keeps bringing it back to the surface. And I'm sure if they ever had a chance of getting back together, every time she sees her name associated with him, she's like, no.

Yeah. Get me out of here. Yeah. So I don't know. I hope somebody's counting how many times I've gone today. Yeah. They're contagious. So I don't want to.

They are contagious. They're so contagious. I probably yawned today. Yeah, they're contagious, so I don't want to. They are contagious. They're so contagious. I don't know, I probably mentioned this on the show already because, you know, I am, you know, a girl with four stories and I share them all the time. But when I took the SATs, remember there was the reading section, the writing section, math section? The reading section, in one of the reading sections, I got a passage all about yawning. About how some scientists believe yawning

to be a social construct. But there's a lot of evidence that yawning is contagious. And sometimes even reading the word yawn can make a person yawn. And so I'm trying to take the SATs, and I'm reading this lengthy-ass motherfucking chapter about yawns, and I just can't stop yawning. And I do feel as though it was unfair.

Let me know. Did anyone else get that passage? Because, like, someone must have taken the same test as me, right? For sure. Thousands. Yeah. Anybody get that? Let me know.

Hit me up. Sweet. In the DMs. Even though my DMs are just, like, so poppin'. I don't know if I'll see it. Because, like, everyone is, like, obsessed with my book. Speaking of your book, next story. Girl with no job's friend Paris Hilton reveals she

started the IVF process with her boyfriend she says it was tough but worth it Paris Hilton is opening up about her plans to start a family the DJ and heiress revealed on Tuesday's episode of the trend reporter with Mara podcast that she started IVF with her boyfriend Carter Vroom praising the 39 year old businessmanold businessman for being, quote, so supportive throughout the process. Oh, so she has a businessman bow. I don't know if I knew that. I did know that.

I knew she had a bow, but I didn't know he was in the businessman category. Yeah, no, he is. And I think that this is so great. Because in her documentary, she was talking about it. Like, I don't know if it was in her cards. Yeah, so I think that this is so awesome i hope you know she gets everything that she's looking for quarantine is like making people you know baby crazy yeah bebe bebe crazy bebe crazy i'm having a lot of problems my nose is

there anything we can get you honestly can i get I get a tissue? Okay. Because I'm like leaky. I'm needing leaks with my, like my nose is leaky. Yeah, you do sound a little stuffed up. I always get stuffy like when I am hungover, like a cold, you know? Yeah, yeah. And. You gotta like get out all the. Toxins.

Toxins. Thank you so very much. You are a doll. And I'm just gonna. gonna yeah just if you want meanwhile slash book get a copy of this wonderful book treat yourself

it'll probably arrive in time for the weekend and you can just have a wonderful weekend reading the beautiful words of Claudia Asche okay that was a life-changing nose blow wow i'm so glad oh my god i felt so good i sound better right yeah you're lively yeah for sure more blake lively okay our next story christian oh what i i'm waiting for a story. Oh, that's the fifth and final. I'm so excited for the fifth and final. Okay. But our fourth and second to last is Kristen Stewart's first photo as Princess Diana is here.

The resemblance is double take worthy. So as we reported a few months ago, Kristen Stewart is playing Princess Diana in a movie about Princess Diana. Like one of many, you know, when it rains, it pours snow white in the Huntsman mirror mirror. like one of many you know when it rains it pours snow white and the huntsman mirror mirror like no no she literally lady di is like the british john benet like people just keep making movies yeah but also i don't i've never really watched a movie about lady di like and now it feels like there's four in one year especially with the crown starting to cover it yes you know right no it feels overwhelming now because of the crown yeah it's like just every when it rains it pours. We always say this. But every few years like someone just makes a Lady Diana something. I don't know. I feel like this is the first one. Like there hasn't

been one that's like Oscar contender. Right. Right. You know. This definitely anything with Kristen Stewart like gets nominated. Yes. To celebrate the start of principal photography on Pablo Lorraine's film Spencer, Neon has released the first look of their star in full costume that's actually like a really great way to drum up some excitement for your movie because now I'm excited again and it's like now I realize okay they started filming like they're giving us good intermittent bursts of excitement I love love love intermittent bursts of excitement and like now they're gonna film the movie and then in a few months we'll get a trailer yeah a few months the movie will be here and I feel like it's just a good way to keep up the momentum.

No. And I think that anyone who's not using intermittent bursts of. Excitement. Excitement is doing it all wrong. No. It's so important. So important to have intermittent bursts of excitement. Stewart bears a strong resemblance to the late royal in a red coat, blonde locks, and

a black hat with delicate netting over her face as she looks off to the side and yes a very Diana Spencer sort of look and a very Diana Spencer jawline like Caroline you know she looks iconic she also does look like Emma as Princess Di in the crown and I'm just I'm really here for it and I can't remember what our take was when she was announced as the casting I'm sure it was negative if I know us, I'm really here for it. And I can't remember what our take was when she was announced as the casting. I'm sure it was negative. If I know us. Yeah, I feel like I remember us recording. And I feel like you were negative and I was on the fence.

That sounds on track. But I do remember us defending her as an actress because we believe, you know, Twilight to be so compelling. She's one of the greatest actresses of our generation. Don't at me. No you're right and if you watch Twilight and like take it seriously like you will see stellar acting and like the most passionate beautiful love story of a generation. Yeah I agree. So Spencer is a dive. The movie's called Spencer. It's a dive inside an emotional imagining of who Diana was. The movie's called Spencer because Diana was already taken by another Diana documentary. Yeah. It's an imagining of who

Diana was at a pivotal turning point in her life. It is a physical assertion of the sum of her parts which starts with her given name, Spencer. You know, I hate that phrase, the sum of one's parts. Like, it's honestly disgusting. Like. No but. Keep it to yourself. The movie chronicles. The. The sum of her parts. The course of the weekend. In December 1991.

When Princess Diana. Joins the royal family. For Christmas. At Sandringham. And decides to leave. Her fractured marriage. To Prince Charles. So I believe that we saw.

That scene. It's just. It's just of one weekend. Which really irks me. That's like that movie. Jackie. My husband. Yeah. When you think you one weekend, which really irks me. That's like that movie. Jackie. My husband. Yeah.

When you think you're getting a whole doc. And you get a weekend. Yeah. You think you're getting Jackie O's life story. Instead. Yes. The week after her husband died. Literally never been more disappointed in my life when I realized that that movie is

not a fabulous life in the day and fabulous picture into the life of Jackie O. But it was like the worst day for Jackie ever yeah no I really talked weird I really don't like that idea for movies I feel like there was even a recent like Marilyn Monroe movie my week with Marilyn where it's like what about life what about what about yeah no the lifetime of Marilyn yeah so this is kind of a bummer and I think that Christmas at Sandringham when she decides she's going to leave Charles is when we saw in The Crown when Prince Philip came and gave her a talking to. Yeah.

Gotta get to Sandringham. Like need a castle on a hill. Yeah. Shoot boar. So I'm like, I'll obviously be watching this movie, but I do want a life story of Princess Diana from the beginning to the end. You know? Yeah.

And do you follow Kitty Spencer on Instagram? Of course I do. She follows me back. She's a literal queen. She's a literal queen. She is what? Her Lady Diana's? Diana's niece.

Yeah, she's Prince Harry and William's. Lady Diana was an auntie. Harry and William's cousins. Cousins. Well, she's just so gorgeous. And, like, she, I feel like, has the best of both worlds. Because she's really, like, a private citizen. Like, she's not a working royal.

Yeah. But she is a lady, right? Yeah. And she's just so sickeningly. And she's connected to, like, iconic Princess Diana. She's, like, the most, like, it girl in fashion. Yeah. No. She's everything in the story. She's a great Instagram follow. Actually I don't even know if she's a lady. I don't know if she has a title. I don't know. I feel like these days you could just slap one on.

Yeah. No. Who's looking? You just buy one. Yeah. I mean Scott Disick did it. Yes. Okay. Are you ready for our fifth and final story that you've been dying to talk about? I'm so thrilled. Is it the fifth and final story that I've been dying to talk about? I'm so thrilled. Is it the fifth and final story that I've been dying to talk about that's brought to you by Manscaped? Yes, it is.

I got a box from Manscaped and like Zach was looking at me like I hung the moon. He was so excited. He had seen that razor but hadn't gotten it yet. And I got it for him and he loves it. Yeah, it's creating problems for me because like now I have to clean up all the hair that Ben leaves. loves it yeah it's creating problems for me because like now i have to clean up all the hair that ben leaves but it does look it's there's a visible difference um on his face from like the crappy drugstore one he had before in this one and also like all of the manscape products like are just aesthetically pleasing to look at so yeah your man is using all manscape products

of the sort and everything so glad okay fifth and final story former real housewives of new york star barbara k as we know her enters the nyc mayoral race this is hysterical former ronnie star barbara k has officially announced she's running for mayor of New York City, adding to an already crowded field of Democratic candidates. The Bronx-born cab of it is what the case stands for. I didn't know that. Me either. Made it official on her Instagram Wednesday, saying her beloved Big Apple is, quote, in a state of crisis under Mayor de Blasio's watch.

She said, quote, I may not be a politician, but I'm a Bronx-born New Yorker who isn't fearful of the hard work and tough decisions that lay ahead it will take a builder to rebuild nyc and i'm the woman to do it that's a great line because she works in construction barb the builder yeah in september she um had floated her dreams of gracie mansion telling page six she was ready to rebuild the city quote by the way can i just say like you're not a a New Yorker if you don't at one point in your life, like, think about running for mayor. Like, it's come across the minds of everyone. Ben literally, not a week ago, was like, I should run for mayor. I'm like, yeah, okay, good luck.

Yeah. She said, number one is rebuild a safer and more inclusive New York City. She said this in September. So I feel like the city is not a safe place. So if it's not safe, people don't want to come to New York City. People don't want to stay in New York City. People don't want to stay in New York City. She's making,

stating facts. Yeah. So she's making waves with her announcement. I just feel like, and I'm going to give, you know, everyone a chance.

Of course. I just feel like if you can't make it on Real Housewives of New York, what chance do you stand? No, you're right. Of the mayoral race, which is,

there's so many people throwing their hats in the ring. If you are going to run for mayor, where was I taking this sentence? I don't recall. But I was going to say is that if you've made it on Real Housewives, like, successfully, you actually are incredibly qualified to run for mayor. A hundred percent. Yeah, because you've been through a lot. You've been through a lot.

But also, like, not even about the task of being mayor, but like, you know, the politics. Yeah. Of running. Oh, yeah. I don't know. Like in New York, it's just like someone just becomes mayor. It's like not even an election. It's just like they tell you it's crazy.

Like this is de Blasio. No, I don't know anyone who actually voted for him. Like it's crazy. Like not one person. Camera light. Wait. don't know anyone who actually voted for him like it's crazy like not one person can't relate wait also i saw the craziest fucking moment from a press conference with bill de blasio did you see no what did he do so it turns out like he's been keeping his gym open and using it but like it's not allowing any other gyms to be open so a reporter was like how come your gym can be open but like no one else's can and his gym like the gym that he goes to okay

it's allowed to be open because he goes there and his response was so crazy he was like he got like angry and defensive at the reporter and he was like i have to work out so that i can stay healthy and do my job and run this city i'm like what like that is just not even a real fucking answer like it was so crazy like when was this i don't know i saw it on tiktok it must have been in the last couple weeks no but but gyms are open oh that's true you know so maybe it was like a while ago pre the opening of gyms i can't believe that didn't go more viral it was such a lunatic thing to say like no it's clear that he's thrown in the towel yeah and you know what like what? Literally. Literally. At the gym.

And there's lots of exciting things happening in the New York City mayoral race. Barbara Kay obviously being one of them. But I'm very much looking forward to a new frontier. Yeah. I just feel like if we're talking about Real Housewives of New York

who should be running for mayor, like, we need to be talking to Bethany Frankel. I just feel like... She, like, infrastructure-wise, like, if you can do the job of organizing a charity organization like she has, like, you have some chops. I'm sure people tell Bethany all the time

that she should run for mayor. I wonder what her argument is for not. Because I'm sure that she has one. Or else she'd be running. I think that, like, she has a happy life and a successful business. And, like, who the fuck wants the job? Even if you do a good job as mayor, it's like it's in our blood as New Yorkers to be like

the fucking mayor. Like even like I remember when I was in high school and Bloomberg was the mayor who was like a beloved, like really he did a good job. The cab drivers, everyone was like fucking Bloomberg. Like he did a good job. Like you're always talking shit about the mayor. Like, even though he did a good job. Like, you're always talking shit about the mayor.

Bill de Blasio is a different animal. Because he's actually, like, destroying the city. And people are talking shit about him, like, because he deserves it. Yeah. It's not just, like, angry New York energy. It's not. No, it's not. It's not.

Because there is that. And you have to accept that. Because even good mayors get that angry energy. But it doesn't, you know, they do a good job. They don't hold a candle. So was Mike Bloomberg the mayor before de Blasio? Mm-hmm. Oh my God, he's been mayor for a long time. Yeah, because it's like two terms

and the mayoral terms are pretty long. I can't wait, like, for new vibes. Some new vibes. Yeah, I agree. There's some handsome men. The race is going to start revving up soon. And Barbara Kay. Yes.

Honestly, I want to hear her platform. Yes. Honestly, I'm good on Barbara. I want to hear her platform. Yeah, no, I definitely, when I first saw this, I was just like, if you can't make it as a housewife, you can't make it as a mayor. But reading- And this is like silly. Yeah, but you know what?

I have my eyes and my ears open, you know? Yes, no, I'm getting very involved in the mayoral race this year. Yeah, very exciting. Very exciting. And we're wishing you the best of luck, Barbara. We are, we are. And we're wishing you the best of luck, Barb. We are. We are. And it's Wednesday. Dear Toasters.

Dear Toasters. Toasters, Toasters, gotta get down on Wednesday. On Toasters. Do you want me to read them? I offered that I would. You did offer, but I'm feeling better. You're feeling better. If the letters start to move off the page, I will fork this over.

Dear Toasters is our advice segment where we give, honestly, what I think to be stellar advice. I think our advice gets better and better every week. I would agree. And you can write it in to us at deartoasters.gmail.com. We will always keep it anonymous. Good morning, Jackie, Claudia, and of course, Theo. Good morning.

Thank you for putting some respect on his name. Let me preface by saying you are the perfect people to ask for advice, seeing as that Claudia is pro-Snoop and Jackie is anti-Snoop. Great. That's true. We love a balanced debate. I was convinced

that over the holidays my boyfriend of three and a half years was going to propose. I fixed my COVID roots, painted my nails the whole nine yards. Christmas and New Year's

came and went and nothing. So you can imagine I had a major case of RDH. I was so upset. Literal RDH. No, heartbroken. I was so upset. Literal RDH. No, heartbroken.

I was so upset and wanted to know what was going on that I snooped through his texts. I saw that he asked my best friend for advice on a ring and sent my uncle, who is a jeweler, a check. Great. So now here's my dilemma. I'm going insane knowing that he bought the ring, but not knowing when it's going to happen. As two ladies who have been through this process, did you it was coming if so how did you remain calm please give me advice on how to stay until i get that ring sincerely a snoopy unengaged toaster okay i thought this was going south me too you're in a very good spot now you're looking for problems

girlfriend like just let it happen you're not looking for problems i just think that like there are so few times especially like in the modern world where everyone knows everything about everyone there's so few times where you can experience genuine surprise oh my god you're so smart like now that you know that it's coming and he has the ring you don't have to be like worry if if this is your partner like you don't have to be asking yourself those big questions so I think don't worry about the manicure and the roots because like once you you can worry about the roots no but like once you're married or planning the wedding like I never look back on my engagement photos.

I'm like, thank God I got a manicure. Like those things really don't matter. And I think the being surprised is the best possible way to be proposed to. Agreed. And I think you should sit back and let him do it in his own way, on his own time and really not snoop in like for yourself too, so that you can experience it. I feel like I knew like the

season which Zach was going to propose to me but on the night that it happened I had absolutely no idea I just thought we were going to dinner because he had like sent me an invite for this event and we had had a pretty busy day yeah um Claudia writes about it in her book actually so my mind was just elsewhere um but even if it hadn't been like I remember we had such a busy day but I was like but damn I have to go to dinner tonight. Like, I told my boyfriend I would. It's so funny. He's like, I would have canceled.

Right, that is what's so funny. That you didn't. Anybody else would have canceled. You couldn't have gotten me out of bed that day. Yeah, no, but I was like, I made a commitment. Like, I have to go to this dinner. And you're a stand-up gal because of it. Yeah, and so being genuinely surprised, like, it's the best feeling.

So I would say let go and let him have his moment. I have literally not one thing to add because you said it all. Hey, Claude and Jack. How you doing? Doing good. I have a bit of a situation that I could use some advice on. My husband Joe and I have been spending a lot of time with my single best friend of 15 years in the queue. I don't like where this is going.

Me neither. My best friend, let's call her Jess. We grew up together together went to school together and has been around my whole relationship with joe even in our wedding party she's always been in and out of relationships and she still hasn't found the one two weeks later after we had spent new year's eve together drinking and having a fire pit at our house oh that sounds fun my friend told me that she didn't feel comfortable spending time around us anymore when i pressed her on why she told me that she had serious feelings for Joe and she finds it confusing

to spend time with us. I asked her if something happened between them and she said no. To make matters worse, when I told my husband about the confession, he told me he had always

found Jess attractive and that she was really more of his traditional type before he met me. Why the fuck would you say that, Joe? Do you smell that? It smells like divorce. Oh, that is not funny like stop okay so he said it was more of his traditional type i am now super insecure about my relationship and devastated that

my best friend dumped this on me we haven't spoken in two weeks and things are super awkward at home with my husband how do we move past this oh my god you okay do we move past this? Oh my God. You, okay. You can move past this. It's just going to take a lot of mental and emotional maturity from you. Like that, obviously your husband loves you. He has chosen you. He had chosen poor choice of words a few weeks ago. And now you're left like with this big pile of shit to clean up. But I think you can clean it up and you guys can move on from this. And I don't think that went on I don't think that they cheated because they both wouldn't have been so upfront with you right and he wouldn't have said those things if he was hiding right it's just like he's made an awkward situation even worse your friendship with this girl is gonna have to take

a back seat for a while she won't be hanging out with you guys until I think she's in a committed relationship of her own unfortunately that unless you want to choose your friendship with her over your husband but it sounds like everything otherwise is okay like why the fuck would this girl say that like no and why would he say that too but but only someone who's innocent would say such damning words I agree and you know what I feel like if you can't move past this on your own which would be very understandable I think maybe it's time to bring in a counselor, a mat, like a, a counselor,

you know, like for real, like try some therapy and like work through these things so that like the counselors probing him and he can get out words that will make you feel more certain in your situation. Yeah. These are, this is just like a,

a tie, like a moment in time in your marriage where you're just going to have to put in the work, do the work. And it's, it's not, it's not the end of time in your marriage where you're just going to have to put in the work, do the work, and... It's not... It's not grounds for dismissal, really. But it's just uncomfortable. Yeah.

It's very uncomfortable. It's not the end of the world. No, it's not the end of the world. But I feel for you. All right, our third and final. Dear Claudia and Jackie, I recently broke up with my boyfriend of almost five years. Before we broke up,

I was asked to be a bridesmaid in one of his best friend's weddings. I had only met the met the fiance three to four times so i found it really strange to begin with when we broke up i told her i didn't feel comfortable being in the wedding anymore because i knew she just had asked me because my boyfriend at the time was a groomsman she completely understood and was so sweet fast forward two months later she is now questioning why i'm not wanting to attend the wedding as a guest or attend the rehearsal dinner i've explained to her why i don't feel comfortable since I have not seen or spoken to my ex since we broke up.

I've tried to tell her that her wedding is about her special day and not about me, and I don't want the attention taken off of her. Please give me some advice on how I should handle this. Side note, I have attended two wedding showers for her, and I was putting in an effort to show her I did care. Please help, XOXO. Why is this girl getting so butthurt? About a guest who can't attend a wedding.

No, no. And it's literally like, you sound lovely, but you're not important to the wedding. Yeah. It's giving me a little bit of like wedding ringer vibes, where it's like she doesn't have many close friends. Oh. Well, in that case, then that's sad. But I just feel like you're being so emotionally immature.

Like you broke up with this man and you don't want to be around him. And I think that you can maybe make that clear to her. But I agree. It's weird on her that she's so invested in the attendance of a guest who was at one point just a plus one right and also it's I know she said it very like casually but making a girl a groomsman I'm sorry making a girl a bridesmaid what yeah yeah okay are you ready for this are you ready yeah making a girl a grooms oh my god are you ready no making a girl a bridesmaid simply because her boyfriend is a groomsman is so

on behalf of the bride it's just so unnecessary you know it's desperate like yeah pathetic no it just like maybe she just doesn't have that many close friends and maybe like these two people met each other a few times and just hit it off like you you know when you're gonna be friends with someone I agree no I I take it back not desperate but like it's bizarre yeah it's bizarre but you know sometimes like you know two people hit it off and if their boyfriends are super close then they would have been in each other's lives forever and it's like oh and we get along great I'll make you a bridesmaid. But the fact that you don't want to participate, like she shouldn't be taking so personally. I have another theory for why this bride really needs this girl at the wedding. Because like it's like she needs her to be in this place, you know, because like she's a spy.

And like literally there's like a target and they like need her at this particular wedding so they can pick her up and question her. Yeah. Or maybe she's trying to get you there because like your ex-boyfriend wants to propose to you. Oh wait, that's actually a good call. And so she wants to get like all dressed up for the wedding. So they can do one of those things I see on Instagram when they pretend to throw the bouquet,

then they actually just give it to the bridesmaid and she turns around and her boyfriend's on the floor. I've never seen that. What? I thought that as a society, we were all like against getting, proposing to someone at someone else's wedding. Well so every time it happens in America um the video goes viral because it's only happened like five or six times. Only five or six people would be so shameless. So stupid and literally no but the bride is like involved and

it's like the end of her wedding when you throw the bouquet so it's meant to like signify like i understand i'm not even saying like i'm saying i wouldn't be mad as the bride meaning i'm mad as the the fiance i'm like you're fucking proposing to me at a party i'm like you fucking cheap shit buy me real flowers like used flowers yeah i'm like this is so tacky or like i don't i'd rather have no flowers than someone else's flowers it's such like flowers that were bought with a different intention i don't know what the right word is in english but like they get i sound like hilaria baldwin Sorry, Baldwin. But it's like such a Chaza thing to do. Yeah, I think Chaza was... It's like mooch.

Mooch. Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. Yeah, it's like get your own party planner. But Chaza also translates to pig. Perfect. Yeah. It's like a piggish thing to do. Oh my God, that is funny.
