Good morning, Millennials! Welcome back to the Morning Toast. Happy Hump Day! What a beautiful hump day we've got. Do-do-do in the studio. Do-do-do-the-a-dora. Do-do-do-the-a-dora. Do-do-do-the-a-dora. Crunchy angel Dora. Precious love-y Dora. You know, I love our Dora song. I do. But do you know what it reminds me of? Like that I have like a negative association with like where we made it up.

Oh, we used to sing it when we were leaving the old studio. Yeah, and like I hate that place since they evicted us. So like I just have like a slight negative association with it. Oh, that's so funny because for me, obviously that's where the song was born. But it's just taken on a life of its own. I forgot that that's how every day when we would leave the studio we would get him like ready right and we'd just be like perfect boy dora love of my life dora and on the whole elevator right down we were on like the 30th floor literally the whole time crunchy angel dora cutest for dora

smelly boy so oh we owe the own apology you guys we owe the own apology patrons will know why we recorded a patreon episode yesterday all about uh claudia's book we took all of your questions that were left over from the redheads episode or didn't make it for various reasons and we did a great episode but towards the end of the episode it started to smell up and like literally smell and for me as a dog mom I knew immediately what that smell was I talk about this all the time on the toes probably more than I should but you know dogs need to express their anal glands I don't know what it really is but like this juice comes out of their butt and it is so sickeningly disgustingly smelling it smells like fish like it's so gross

and you if you've ever experienced like your dog expressing your his anal glands like you know the smell yeah so I literally the episode was winding down I'm like Jackie do you smell that and I knew what it was and I was like we gotta wrap this episode up and like we basically talked about it for five minutes shaming Theo's anal glands which wasn't cool of us it wasn't cool of us and what turns out to be even less cool of us is then we packed up our things we left the studio when we left the studio it smelled so much worse in the hallway coming from next door i think they had ordered like fish for lunch and no that was not food no no i think it was where else what else it sounded like a septic explosion no no because it was not a culinary smell it was like 12 30 the door my God, no. I think that they ordered like some big.

A fish fiesta. No, by the way, in no way was, you can't, to think that I misconstrued a smell of fish with the smell of anal glands. You just said they smell like fish. I'm sorry, food. It's not food. Oh my, that's sick. I didn't think that.

I thought that there was a pipe burst. They had a fish fiesta. No, I totally disagree. And so clearly it was not Theo responsible for the smell. Well, that's the moral of the story. And we embarrassed him then. We're embarrassing him again now. We're really sorry.

And we're really sorry, Theo, because it wasn't you. We literally ran out of here. We ran and it wasn't even us. We should have stayed in here. A hundred percent. So just wanted to clear that up because it was probably hurtful for Theo super hurtful um but we've been great in the meantime head over to patreon and listen to the episode because it's really fabulous we cover the gamut on things

from the book you know taking the conversation offline some of the fanfare surrounding the book and it's just a great so much fanfare it's just a great episode of toastiness between Claude and I and then also my book is available at girlwithnojob.com slash book. I feel like I really don't need to tell you guys that because like just the numbers keep coming in. The audiobook numbers I finally got. And it's like we have so many listeners. Like you know sometimes you feel like we're literally talking into a void.

Yeah. But they showed up and showed out for the book launch. And I'm going to stop insulting them with the promotion. Like they already have it. For sure. were they sickening audible down they were sickening the audio department down wow we love to see it because we love audio here at the morning toast even though sometimes ours is a little janky yeah and even though we can't stop singing yeah well you know what I got I did a Q&A uh like I always do and there's always someone who's like please stop singing I know and I responded to it like no and the amount of outpour like the outpouring of love and support for the

singing like was enough to reinstill my faith in our singing now of course some episodes do we outdo it yes I wasn't sure what the girl was referring to because I have this annoying habit of like singing when I talk and it's like that what she's talking about or us singing like you know you're so golden like is that what she's yeah she's definitely talking about that specific one because that wasn't so off pitch yeah that was let me try that again okay three two one oh my god what I started singing You're So Golden. And also your pitch is like weird for the do's. Sorry. Sorry. Don't fucking come for my pitch.

Three, two, one. You're so golden. You're wrong. Who's right? Together we're just bad. We're both wrong. You're just bad. We're both wrong. Do-do-do-do. Do-do-do-do-do. Do-do-do-do-do. You're so golden.

Do-do-do. Do-do-do-do. It's like the Gaston saga all over again. Gaston on three. Ready? Three, two, one. Gaston! Now that's the harmony.

That was sickening. Sickening the harmony down 100% Oh my god So maybe in a few years from now We'll get golden right Getting overheated already Like the show just started

Usually by the end of the show I'm wearing a chunky sweater today Because I feel like I've been wearing sweats You? I feel like no I'm like trying to wear an outfit today Like I'm wearing tights

I feel like I've been wearing sweats In some way shape or form Like for the past few days You have? I still like was talking about my No I know But the same thing It's like I wore this today Because you've been wearing so many sweats and then you show up in a look in a in a turtleneck

which has been your loop and tights yeah and chunky boots which has really been your look I guess I've been inspired by you and you've been inspired by me we love to see it inspiration is just reeking over here you're just like being inspired by wearing hoops every day yeah you know I got so much like positive feedback from my hoops and I used to wear hoops all the time and then sometimes on the show I felt like it was so, so much. But now I'm feeling like I have a lot of, you know, faith in my hoops. And for those wondering, these are the ombre from the new Allison collection. Ooh, ombre.

I haven't seen those. Those are sickening the hoops down. And, you know, our friend Margo works for Allison. So, like, we get some free stuff. But I actually purchased these because, like, I wanted them so bad. And I didn't want to wait until, like, you know, they weren't cool anymore till I could finally get a free pair yeah for sure no I love them so yeah I'm just like being hoopy vibes very hoopy vibes and I think that being in this stage of quarantine or whatever the fuck we're in like it's so important to like have

little things that just spice up your everyday routine like when I was wearing that Prada necklace like I just felt like a whole new bitch. And I can imagine that's how you feel adding hoops to your sweats. No, I, and hoops and sweats is a vibe. For sure. For sure. But especially like a February 2021 six degrees outside vibe. No, I know. And like, it's six degrees outside.

I'm sweating like a beast today. I know. It is warm in here. It is warm in here. Okay. When it's just Theo being so hot. Being so sexy. He really actually, now that I'm feeling him it's

like can you move over yeah um we have a great show for you guys today it's hump day dear toasters our advice segment actually have so much to cover today because you watched Britney Spears I watched Britney Spears doc uh last night the Real Housewives of Dallas was on shouldn't take too long should not take long at all because it was literally one dinner party the whole episode and there's just fabulousness happening in the world that I feel as though we need to cover.

Intuit TurboTax Live. Thank you TurboTax for sponsoring today's episode. Thank you. Sign on. Fire your taxes. Seriously. Don't forget. First story you guys. Major controversy. Kim Kardashian hits back at people. Major. Major. Kim Kardashian is hitting back at people who are questioning her daughter north's painting abilities she says how dare you she was not she did not come to play she did not come to play it's funny like what sets her off but this is clearly one of those things doubting like it's doubters non-believers once were her dreamers no anyone, anyone who doubts North's abilities,

like that is obviously a trigger point for Kim Kardashian West. We know that now. We do. And she is one proud mom. She's not afraid to stick up for her children. The star recently shared a photo of a landscape painting

her daughter North had completed, calling the seven-year-old a little artist in an Instagram story post. However, social media users quickly began questioning whether or not North had actually painted the artwork, which was done in a style similar to the works of Bob Ross. One Twitter user wrote,

I'm supposed to go, but I can't stop thinking about how Northwest did not paint this. Then Kim took to her story and wrote a lengthy post saying, Don't play with me when it comes to my children. My daughter and her best friend have been taking a serious oil painting class where their talents and creativity are being encouraged and nurtured. North worked incredibly hard on her painting, which took several weeks to complete. As a proud mom, I wanted to share her work with everyone.

So she's like coming after specific articles, specific tweets, saying how dare you come for North? How dare you question her child's abilities? And that North is the artistic queen that she said that she was. And then on TikTok, these two girls from Calabasas who like I think when they were kids took that same art class, they had their paintings from when they were kids. And they're like, no, this actually is what like art class is like in Calabasas. So I'm not going to lie.

When I first saw it, I'm like, LOL, Kim, like North did not paint that. Did I feel like vocalizing it on the internet and being a troll? No, I just thought to myself like, okay, there's like, there's some, I don't know where we lied, but there's a fabrication in this. Like someone helped, like there's a little bit of a lie. I don't think so. I think that- No, but then, then it came to be, isn't it a paint by the numbers?

I, like when I first saw it, I assumed it was paint by numbers. So when I figured that, I'm like, oh no, they can make anyone a good painter. Yeah and she spent weeks in her oil painting class like I just people are constantly underestimating North. And they're constantly embarrassing themselves with that. Congratulations you played yourself. Obviously like I had no doubts that North made this because also like why would she say that she made it if she didn't make it? Mostly it's just my faith in Kim that made me believe that right right no and it's like when you have that big of a platform like you really just can't lie about random shit right or you shouldn't we don't know Kim to lie especially about North but it also is interesting

that in her supportive claims about um in her Instagram stories she was had a picture of some art and referred and she in the context of the story she was referring a picture of some art and referred and caught she in the context of the story she was referring to Kanye and instead of calling Kanye she called him North's dad. She said throwback to some of her dad's artwork that he did when he was a kid which some people are taking to mean like she can't even utter his name they're divorced which I took to mean like this is a story about North and it's North's dad showing her artistic ability. I really appreciate like the level of denial you are reaching. But for me, this is how you refer to the father of your children

who you're no longer married to, like the children's father. I saw a story like on her stories before it was a news story. And I was like, oh, that's so cute. Like I didn't think anything of it. I think people are just looking too into it. No, I feel as though I've been on the denial train with you for quite some time, but I did think that was intentional weird wording.

I don't think so. I think it's just all about North. And I think that if Kim didn't want to mention Kanye, she wouldn't have posted it at all. She's posting his young artwork. So sweet. I think this whole story's so sweet I love North's painting like can't wait till it's an art vandal original they should collab you're just so

sweet like you just really believe like in the good you know I believe in in my people you know for sure and I was really there with you but I think at this point like I'm not saying that they're not getting divorced I'm just saying I have no reason to believe right now that they are because Kim hasn't said anything to me okay anyways looking to you are you waiting for a text message I'm waiting for the statement from Kim's IG just like she spoke on North yeah you know there's all these rumors flying she did not hesitate to correct this one no don't come for her fucking children. Don't come for her children. Looking forward to the Northwest Art Vandelay collab

whenever it drops. You know, I think often about those pieces that Khloe made during her stint as Art Vandelay. Clearly they're an artistic family. No, they were really, really good. And once they got them framed side by side, like the red and the black, I was like, I would fully put that in my home.

Where are they? They should auction them for charity because I would fucking buy them. A hundred percent. But it also goes to show how a nice frame can make anything look fabulous. And that's why you need frame bridge. To not today's sponsor. But you're right.

Like the proper, just like a nice canvas, like some decent paint and a fancy art frame. You're right. Like it's just, it's enough. Yeah. No, that's so true. Those were some really funny episodes. But where do we think that they live? I think they're probably in Kris Jenner's home.

No, I think they're in Khloe's garage. Did you ever watch the Home Edit episode of Khloe's garage? No. They weren't in there. They literally went through all of her stuff. Like, True has 117 of those, like, mini cars that every kid wanted when they were a kid that, like, really drove. She has, like, a Bentley, a Range Rover.

Like, she's the craziest shit. All of Khloe's paint supplies are in there that she made it into like her paint studio but there were no framed pieces hanging around maybe she has like a little you know room in her house where they're all hanging or maybe they're in the attic and then she also had like a huge corner for like all the merch she gets from herself like her collabs with like Good American and all these other and then her sister's collabs that like they sent her oh that that's so nice. That's what I need. Yeah I need a merch room. Like the merch that we have. That's why I have to wear it today just because like there was literally no room for it in my closet. No I'm out of room for it. Like I always have like a couple piles of merch. Me too. Now we

have new merch dropping on February 17th and you guys it is sickening. The warehouse down the warehouse is still sick. No the warehouse. Who am I? The warehouse. Yes because they're fucking sick from the most sickening merchandise just sitting on their shelves. You guys will get some sneak peeks coming soon, but the drop is on Wednesday, February 17th. Gird your loins. Gird your motherfucking loins. Yeah. Yeah. Okay, sorry.

Anyways, Justice for North has been served once again stop doubting her yeah it's that's the the true lesson here it's like kim is her mother kanye west is her father she is the first born in judaism we call that the bachor it's for a boy but still it counts bachora bachora we must as a society stop doubting Northwest's abilities. Like homegirl like she will be the first you know something. You know she's gonna be like an astronaut. Whatever she wants. Yeah like she's gonna kill it. Yeah so if she wants to be the next Bob Ross. So be it. She will be. Okay next up is a crazy story that has been like circulating on the web but cops are now denying this wild rumor that army hammer is a suspect in a death investigation like literally

it's crazy that like instagram pages like dumont and like a bunch of these other gossip sites like they literally started this rumor police have shut down a wild online rumor that Armie Hammer is a suspect in California's Wonder Valley death investigation. After hikers discovered human remains in the California desert on January 31st, social media ran rampant with speculation linking the 34-year-old actor, who's caught up in his own scandal, to the case. The rumors began after Instagram account DuM, shared posts claiming that a shocking story about Hammer would be published immediately

and suggested that that is why his agency, WME, dropped him. Got it. So if you saw the post on Dumoy, and then there was like- Dumois. I always, I say different every time. It's French. I say different every time.

But there was also these tweets going around saying that like Armie Hammer at one point this year was like working in construction and- Which is just a very bizarre thing for an actor to do right and then also like at that same time some bodies were found very close by and he was working on a movie that was set near this location where the bodies were found so it was like there wasn't there wasn't not evidence like when i read it i'm like this could be true and then also with dumois saying that um a big article was about to come out about army that was so damning that that his agency knew it was coming preemptively dropped him it was right and we're still waiting like according

to now a lot of people like the la times is working on like a major piece on army hammer that has something so damning in it like it's worse than anything we've ever seen so it's like we've seen something really bad the logical next, like it's worse than anything we've ever seen. So it's like, we've seen something really bad. The logical next thing, like what's worse than cannibalism? Murder. Like, so it's not a crazy thought. So when all these things were happening at the same time, we heard about the article, something damning was coming.

Someone put together like with this dead body, like it didn't not make sense. Yeah, it wasn't like crazy. So crazy. But now the San Bernardino County Sheriff told The Sun that Armie Hammer's name hasn't come up as a suspect at all. We have no plans to investigate him. He's probably relieved about that.

So I guess that's that on that. Yeah. But that was a crazy few days. The rumors were so crazy that we actually didn't even talk about them because that's insane. But no, now the police are getting involved. It's insane if wrong. It's speculation and conspiracy theory at its finest. hundred percent but now that the police spoke on it we as a legitimate news source

here like we can speak on it right so and by speaking on it we're saying that these two things and i feel like a lot of people like saw those tweets and were like question mark waiting for the story right so i guess here we are to tell you that that's not going to be the story but still pending this mysterious la times story that's so bad that trumps cannibalism. Right. I'm very much looking forward to reading that piece if it ever sees the light of day. Yes. I have a feeling like because we know about it it probably never existed. Yeah like someone somewhere is working to get it stopped. No it's like a game of telephone like like this the article never existed you know. Yeah. Like I think it's very logical that his

agency would drop him, not because of something's coming, but because of all that's already happened. Like, an agency's job is to make you money. And at some point, I've been dropped by an agency. At some point, due to a scandal, like, you are no longer lucrative for an agency. Yes, but all of this cannibal stuff came out a few weeks ago.

It did take them a very long time. It took my agency like one hour to drop me and I didn't hurt anybody. So hypocrisy. Yeah. Hypocrisy. Yeah. He's been America's next top cannibal for a while. That's funny. Thank you.

And you know, I always, I've been thinking a lot. Like, I just wonder, like, first of all, like, where is he? Like, where is he experiencing the cancellation from? Is it a house? Is it a hotel? Has he he seen his kids what is going through his mind does he feel like he's being framed like is he sorry like I'm just curious statement he thinks he's being framed right but that statement was so long ago like I don't even I don't even remember like I don't know her like I don't know that statement it was like it was written in all caps and it was supposed to be like written by a publicist it looked like it was written by a child. It looked like Northwest wrote it.

Well, then it would be amazing if she wrote it. So stay tuned. Next story, a little happy royal bebe news. H-R-B-N? H-R-B-N. It's time for a little H-R-B-N. Ready? Okay.

Princess Eugenie shares the adorable first photo of her newborn son on Instagram. Princess Eugenie is welcoming her first child in a modern way with an Instagram post. That is true. This is like a first royal baby with an Instagram photo. That reminds me very much of Kylie and Stormi. And very much of Olivia and Mikaela. I know. This like hand-holding baby announcement is all the rage right now.

And it's so sweet. No because it's like the mom is fucking tired. She just like gave birth, created a child and people like I have seen people like getting their hair and makeup done in the hospital which you know good for you. I'm not here to judge anyone but like that will not be me. Like I will literally, I probably won't even have a manicure. I can tell

you someone who it will be. You! There's literally two types of girls in the world girls who do the hand-holding thing and girls who get their hair and makeup done well no I'm not gonna get my hair and makeup done but I am definitely gonna be putting some foundation on you know how red I get like I would be crazy no and foundation and a brow and a lash I'm not gonna have a makeup artist I don't even have a makeup artist like for my wedding right that's true yeah um I'm gonna bring up an example that I've recently found out

that you say I bring up all the time, but what to expect when you're expecting that scene where, like, Brooklyn Decker sneezes out two twins. There's two types of pregnant women. I am Elizabeth Banks, like, all the way, and, like, you are Brooklyn Decker. No, no, no. Yes. Oh, no. Oh, no, no, no, no, no. I mean, it remains to be seen. oh no no no no no i mean it remains to be seen also you could say there's two types of pregnant women courtney and kim yeah that's so true and i'm much more of a kim for sure same for sure but we shall see you never know anything can happen when you're expecting yeah and you never know what to expect when you're expecting okay the first photo of princess eugenie and jack brooksbang's baby boy was shared on the Royal's Instagram page on Tuesday. The black and white shot shows their baby's hand wrapped around Eugenie's thumb

while Jack holds the baby boy's arm. You know, that is a new touch of both parents' hands in the photo. Yeah. You know? I feel like, you know, the mom did more work. Like, let her have her moment. But okay, whatever. Yeah, but it's still really cute.

She captioned the shot with blue heart emojis and two exclamation points to show her excitement. I really am, like over the fact that it's like royal announcement news on Instagram. I think that's so cool. No, it is. It's so 21st century of them. The queen yet again ushering the monarchy into a new era. So I found this out because like on People Magazine's Instagram, there was a picture of them. And then it was like in the caption, it was like, welcome princess, you know whatever and they happened to have chosen like a really unflattering picture of both of them and the comments were so mean mostly because like the picture the picture of both of them had a lot of teeth

and they were british teeth yeah that's it. I think. They look so cute and so happy. People are so fucking mean. People are so mean. But you know when you're in turtle monologue when you're looking at a picture. For me, I would never say anything. But I was looking at the picture and I'm like, oh, that's a lot of teeth. And then the comments were just so mean.

Damn. Justice. Just when the royals get on Instagram, they're going to be exiting. Now you're gonna make fun of them. Which just is like a British trope but it's not nice. I'm not even reading them. No. That ain't right. No I know but um that's how I found out about the British new baby. Okay well very happy warm wishes. Yes. To this new family. I feel like whenever we bring up Eugenie like we always say like ideal level of royal fame like she probably has a small semblance of a normal life I think we say the

opposite actually I'm having deja vu we've literally had this conversation because she has all of the responsibility and none of the perks no I disagree she doesn't have the perks yes she does no she doesn't she has the money I don't know isn't that like the only perk and the fame yeah no but like she's not like but she doesn't have to go to as many like state dinners as everyone else like she probably I guess it really just depends what you think are responsibilities and what you think are perks yeah no that's so right I think that most people see a state dinner as a responsibility but to me sounds fabulous perk yeah but not when you have them like every night and you have to like wear these heavy like dresses and sashes and crowns and jewels it depends on the person because to

me that sounds amazing to someone else not every night for your whole life a couple times a year crowns and jewels and sashes oh my okay are you ready for our next story i'm ready come and find me i'm not gonna hang out the sun on my side it's heavy come and find me that was like such an obscure song those lyrics make no sense we're definitely singing them wrong i'm heavy come and find me no thank. Open for the one and I'm ready. Ready. They just can't be the right lyrics. No, we're definitely singing them wrong, but we had a dance like made up to that when we were kids. Oh yeah, did we have a big kick? Yeah, and it was like, ready. Oh, fuck. Ow. Shit. Did you hit the corner? Oh no, I'm actually gonna cry. Oh no. I'm okay. Did you hit the corner of the mic box with your with your tendon in your wrist literally oh with the little quality ambulance call an ambulance but for me okay i'm okay i'm where that really hurt well i think this next story is going to cheer you up honestly it better be about Alex Trebek It is

A non-profit that provides Housing, vocational training Continuing education And other services For formerly homeless And incarcerated New Yorkers The Doe Fund The Doe Fund is the best organization

It's such a fabulous organization Did they they come, I know when we were in high school they came and talked to us. To the students, yes. And that's how I first heard about it and now if you're ever on the street you'll see people who work for the Doe Fund, Ready, Willing, and Able in the blue suits. You see them everywhere and I'm so glad they're still around because like I first heard about them in high school like maybe ten years ago. Yes. And that's it's just like it's they're an organization that like I they just have their shit together like they've been around forever they've proven success and they I'm sure they are so excited about this donation. Yes during

his last day on set Alex extolled the virtues of everyone opening up their hands and their hearts to those who are suffering. Donating his wardrobe to those who are working to rebuild their lives is the perfect way to begin to honor that last request, said Mike Richards, who is the executive producer of Jeopardy. Among the donated items are 14 suits, 58 dress shirts, 300 ties, 25 polo shirts, 14 sweaters, 9 sports coats, 9 pairs of dress shoes, 15 belts, 2 parkas, and 3 pairs of dress slacks.

Iconic. will be voicing the MTA's subway and bus announcements as part of a new initiative to breathe life into the pandemic-weary public transport system. We need it.

Debbie Mazur says, The subway is part of my DNA. I'm so excited to do this. I want subway riders to feel welcome. I want them to hear a familiar voice, think for a second, and maybe smile. Wait, you know what? Of course, I like who they have,

but they really should have also included, like, Howard Stern and Andy Cohen. Okay. Sorry, just saying. Maybe that will be, like, the next installment. But I think when you think of famous, iconic New Yorkers, obviously Jerry Seinfeld. Yeah, I don't think of Debbie Mazur. I did not even know she lived here. She has such a great and distinct voice. Yes, and Whoopi Goldberg, it's like, can you imagine like after a long day, like on the way home, so excited

to get home, and then you hear like the warm, delicious voice of Whoopi Goldberg. That's a great one. Yeah, that's a really, really good one. one oh I think that there are more um but the campaign was spearheaded by director Nicholas Heller who's behind the Instagram account at New York Mika where he features like big apical characters the MTA reached out to him for ideas for how to spice up the subway look at the MTA being forward thinking like Like, can't get their trains running on time, but reached out to an influencer. There's such a disconnect here, but okay. Yeah. He approached about 50 prominent New Yorkers from across different industries,

and no one, like, had an issue to participate, even though there's no money involved. Wow. He landed 25 of them, including Fran Lebowitz, probably another great New York voice, rappers Jada Kiss and Cameron comedians Dezus and Mero radio Dezus and Mero sorry radio personalities Angela Yee and Angie Martinez and sportscaster Michael Kay so there's there's a lot of different voices I think this is going to be a really cool and hopefully ongoing campaign where new voices could always be added well you know I would love to hear from Jerry Seinfeld you know after he made like a huge you know ta-da over the summer you know. Yeah. New

York's coming back. I guess this is his way of helping. I think this is his way of helping. This is you know a lot of people's ways of doing something exciting for the city. Yeah. So I think that it's a it's a cool interesting little factoid. No I like it a lot but it's just funny. But I think it's like a little bit again like celebrities thinking that they're gonna just like save the world. Oh well yeah it's a little bit of that but it's more so like if you live in New York like you know how we are riddled with problems and like the voice of the MTA man like wasn't at the top of our list. It's more like you know the crime and there's just like all there's so many restaurants closing like the economy. So I feel like maybe call me crazy we should tackle some of those first and then worry about who's gonna tell us what the next stop is.

Right, exactly. And I'm gonna miss that guy. I know. He was so clear of the closing doors. Please. And like whenever I hear that it just like triggers me actually back to NYU. Like I just hate it. So maybe like getting some new voices in there. It's fresh. We can create new memories.

I'm actually really okay with that. Yeah and if they need some like young New York voices to say, Good morning, MTA. Welcome to Times Square, the home of Broadway. We are available. We are, yeah. We could do some more like, okay, okay, okay. No, say, if you don't get off at your next stop, you'll be remiss.

You'll be devastated. You'll be heartbroken and even heartbroken and then it's like i'll do all the ones for like the theater district so like next stop lincoln center home of the opera and then we'll be like hear the sounds of marching feet on the avenue i'm taking you to 42nd Street. If they're not playing that every time they hit 42nd Street, what is you doing? And then when they, I don't think there is a 57th Street stop, but if there, no, actually there is. It's 59th. Yeah, but there's also 57th and 7th.

Some lines. I would be like, I was walking towards 57th Street, towards Park. With my same old song in my same old heart. Thinking what I'm going to do when I get older. Claudia, that's fucking beautiful. Yeah, I could come up with a whole slate of songs I could mention. If you're on the 6th and you're heading north, Uptown girl.

Yes. She was living in her uptown world. And if you're on the 6th, just like between stops, I was running through the six with my woes you know how that shit go just a little something like that yeah i oh and then if i was on the four train a little janet jackson only got four minutes to save the world hesitating oh and then when it's the final final stop you, when they get all the way north or all the way south. And everyone has to get off. I want to see you out that door, baby.

Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba. That's beautiful. Or if they're on the R train, are you ready for it? Oh, that's good. And the doors will, the door, and we'll have a fog machine, and the doors will open and close. Doom, doom, doom. Fog machine. Lights, lights, and fog.

Every day on your way to work this could literally be like the best project like i really could come up with like a pop culture music themed extravaganza a hundred percent a hundred percent i could i could go on no i could wax poetic. Yeah. Oh, and then, you know, like, oh, the Empire State Building stop. In New York. Concrete jungle, wet dream tomato. There's nothing you can't do. Okay. I really don't want to stop, but I think you should. No, like, I could go on forever.

Oh, and then when the train comes to a stop, you know how sometimes like between stops, like you get stuck in the tunnel because like the lights don't work or something? Yes. When it comes to a screeching halt, stop. In the name of love, before you break my heart. Just an idea.

So once again, we are available. Or if you want to hire real singers, you can do that too. The ideas are free, MTA. I'm a real singer. For sure. But I'm going to say the ideas are free. No. Really?

Intellectual property? No, but I'm giving them to the MTA. For those, are you ready for closing doors? That's so funny. I will supply the thought.

Mm-hmm. our code at checkout sweaty betty.com slash toast promo code toast love it okay um okay to your toasters ready hi claudia and jackie hi hi claude congrats on being a new york times bestseller your book was everything of the sort thank you my boyfriend is a p-jom and we moved in together seven months ago in his hometown where all of his close friends and family still live this is a huge deal for me because i moved far away from my sisters, friends, and parents to be with him. I have a couple friends in the area, but due to COVID,

I haven't been able to make any more. I still struggle living away from my friends and family, but I love living with him. There is one issue I need my two disgraced queens to help me with. My boyfriend has a friend. Let's call her Gabby. They've been friends since middle school and have a weirdly close relationship. She is single and they are constantly texting,

and she is always at my apartment. I've gone snooping before and haven't found anything incriminating, but it still weirds me out. Her family owns a restaurant and every time we go out to eat, we go there so we can see Gabby. They are both part of this larger friend group that is always hanging out while I am left at home watching reruns of Real Housewives of New Jersey and they just eat my weight in salt and vinegar chips. I've been wondering, why am I not invited to these hangouts? His other friends bring their significant others, and he never invites me. The one time I did hang out with his friends, it was really fun,

but I've never been invited back. I'm starting to think that he is not inviting me because Gabby is there, and he doesn't want us in the same room. Am I being crazy, or do you think that something weird is going on with Gabby and my boyfriend? I truly love my boyfriend so much, and I see myself marrying him, but my mind is going to the worst places. Sincerely, a sad toaster. There's a lot to unpack here the first is obviously like should or can your fiance who's a male have a friend that's a girl we can talk about that but I think the second thing like your boyfriend like

constantly hanging out with his group of friends girls and boys and not inviting you is really fucked up seeing as how like you gave up so much to move away all your friends and family are back at home you have very few friends in this town especially because of COVID and he has like a full-blown group of friends infrastructure that you can't come that ain't right like first of all because you moved your whole life for him and like gave him everything that he wanted like you pretty much should get everything that you want like from now until eternity so if you want to be hanging out with the friends like just say i moved here for you like i'm going you know you have so you need to like wield that a little more yeah um and it's a little bit shady that he wouldn't include you to begin with like maybe

he thinks you don't want to be there because honestly watching Real Housewives of New Jersey and eating salt and vinegar chips like sounds like a really good time but no like just stand up for yourself that's not right and as far as Gabby goes like once you're in these situations you can get a pulse on her and if you think that it's it's not good tell him I moved here for you you're not allowed to be friends with Gabby anymore yeah it sounds like you're in these situations, you can get a pulse on her. And if you think that it's not good, tell him I moved here for you. You're not allowed to be friends with Gabby anymore. Yeah. It sounds like you're forgetting like you're in charge. Gabby doesn't run this town.

You do. A hundred percent. But then the conversation about him having like a close friend like Gabby. So of course, like I'm such a jealous person. Like when I think about it, I'm like, okay, no. And if that were Ben, like I would kill someone. But honestly, like Abe, like is one of my best friends. I hang out with him all the time. I FaceTime him like four hours at a time. when I think about it I'm like okay no and if that were Ben like I would kill someone but honestly like Abe like is one of my best friends I hang out with him all the time I FaceTime him like

four hours at a time and like Ben doesn't feel weird about it and like there's literally nothing to feel weird about so sometimes it is just a friend but I do think it's not to be like so you know 1950s like I think it's fine for a girl to have a guy friend but I don't think it's fine for a guy to have a girlfriend I think there's just, context is everything per usual. Like one, what's her situation like? Is she in a relationship? Two, you know. And you know what makes it weird?

The fact that Gabby has like no relationship with the fiance. Like Abe and Ben have hung out multiple times before. Like he's more of like a couple friend. If you have to keep it separate, you're doing something wrong. If everyone's together as friends, it's a beautiful thing. But I think like, let's hear more about Gabby before we judge her. It sounds like you don't really know her. Yeah.

No, but you obviously just hate her. Even for us too. Like, is she in a relationship? Like, what is her deal? Right. Like, does she have a history of like, you know, being a skank? Like what? Like, no, does she have a history of being a man stealer?

Like what's the, I didn't mean skank. That's like a derogatory word. I apologize. But like, has she, you know, hooked up with other people's fiances or live-in boyfriends you know live-in boyfriends next up it's like so nice you moved like into this small town for your boyfriend honestly sounds epic I wish Ben was no 100 maybe we should move there and then we could like all form a group yes we'll start a cool group yeah Gabby yeah Gabby restaurant we're not going to your restaurant we're going to the competing restaurant that's so mean

okay hi Claudia and Jackie I must start off by saying I listen to the podcast daily and I love you guys. I need some advice and I'd be RDH if I didn't come here. I am seriously RDH. I'm a dental hygienist. Oh my gosh. She's a registered dental hygienist. She better have got that sweatshirt. I had a patient a few weeks ago and I saw him both and I had a patient a few weeks ago. I saw both him and his son. My patient is about 55 and his son is 14. The dad was a little creepy and complimented my hands more than once, but whatever. I was talking to the both of them about skiing

and how I recently picked it up over the quarantine. I was walking the dad out to leave and he offered me a pair of skis that are too big for his son. I took it with a grain of salt and kind of ignored it. I was working the other day and the dad had brought in his son to have some work done and he brought me the skis.

I was so awkward and uncomfortable. He just left them in my office. I took them home, but I feel a little unprofessional and totally weird if this is this guy's way of flirting with me. What do I do? Do I call him and say they don't fit? I can't accept them. Or do I just keep them?

I mean, it's free skis and they fit. Is this wrong of me? They fit. That's really hard. An awkward RDH toaster. I mean, girl, keep the skis. Like, life is expensive. If you get a free pair of skis, don't question it.

Yeah, and honestly, like, sending them back, like, also makes it awkward. And you have to coordinate, like, the pickup. It's awkward regardless, because he seems like just an awkward guy. I mean, obviously, monitor the situation. If anything feels, like, truly creepy, report it. But right now, it seems like he's maybe just, like just an awkward guy. I mean, obviously monitor the situation. If anything feels like truly creepy, report it. But right now it seems like he's maybe just like a nice guy. Like with a free pair of skis. Like, I don't know.

Some people are just really generous like that. Yes. I have this thing that I don't need and you need it. Like, here you go. That just makes complete sense. I guess you could say like I'm generous, but you have to come to my house and pick it up. I'm not driving out of my way to drop it off for you.

Like, yeah, it's your gift. Yeah, but I guess he really just just some people are do-gooders I don't know I was doing the wicked ride on Peloton yesterday and that song came on no good deed goes unpunished and I'm like so true that's how this man will feel if you return the skis so yeah you don't want to make him feel bad let him do the good deed until he gives you a reason to think that there was like another reason behind it I just like want to see the good in people and it sounds like you don't like feel uncomfortable by, by his presence. It's just like,

it's really not a normal thing to do. Like socially. It's just like super fucking extra, but. Maybe he likes you. You have a pair of skis. When, where are we going?

Yeah. Where are we going? I'll meet you in Aspen. Let's shred the fucking gnar y'all. Okay. Ready? Dear Jack, Claude and Theodora.

Love you guys so much. Thank you for everything you do and bringing a smile to a millennial's face. Oh, my God. You're so welcome. I have physical proof that my boss's husband is sleeping with our co-worker and is now borderline stalking her. Okay. So the boss's...

Oh, my God. Excuse me. The boss. Boss. The cake boss's husband. So the boss, I guess... Okay. The boss's husband is sleeping with a co-worker.

And now he's stalking her. And now he's stalking her. We all work in the same office. My boss is Allie. The co-worker is Chelsea. And the husband is James. Hold on. Boss is Allie.

Co-worker is Chelsea. Husband is James. Got it. I'm like reading this, but I can't comprehend it. Do you ever have that happen? Yes. I'm like, these are just letters. Like, okay.

Boss is Allie. So the co-worker and the husband. Chelsea and James. Wow. Very good. hand did you ever have that happen yes i'm like these are just letters like okay boss is ally so the co-worker and the husband chelsea and james oh wow very good i'm like i'm not able to digest this no i can read it james and chelsea used to be super super flirty and it was really uncomfortable i would look over at ally and it seemed like she was ignoring it james and chelsea would disappear for over an hour at a time and when chelsea would come back she would have an elaborate story about traffic spilling coffee on herself and so on fast at a time, and when Chelsea would come back, she would have an elaborate story about traffic, spilling coffee on herself, and so on. Fast forward a couple months, and she admits to someone that she was sleeping with him in his car.

He would also give her money for manicures, highlights, and whatever she wanted. Now she says she's over him, but still accepts money and gifts, and get this, he sends her gifts to the office, and Chelsea leaves them on her desk for Allie to see. Would you somehow want Allie to know? There is a rumor that this isn't the first time James has been screwing around. Ali is a precious gem of a woman

and does not deserve any of this. Signed, Monkey in the Middle of a Scandal. Sounds like you've got to stop butting in people's business.

I know, but it also sounds like you should write her a letter. Anonymous. Dear Ali, the other night at James' car, Chelsea,

James put his head between Chelsea's breasts. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, my inclination is always just like butt the fuck out of people's business, especially at work. Like work isn't your life. You know, you go to work to live. You got to make your money.

Like it's not everything. So just like, I don't know. Keep your head. That's my advice. It seems like you're like really invested in it emotionally. And like, I just, I'm not that type of person. I'm like, my coworkers, like, you can all go fuck yourselves. Like I'm getting out of here. That's literally just me. No,'re like really invested in it emotionally. And like, I just, I'm not the type of person. I'm like, my coworker's like, you can all go fuck yourselves. Like I'm getting out of here.

That's literally just me. No, you know. And that hurts. I mean, like if I was in a typical setting with people I wasn't related to. Okay. Like I'm just not the type of person like in a corporate setting, like to care that much. Yeah.

Yeah. I own my own company. So like now, like, yes, I'm very passionate about everyone here. But like if I was just like a cog in a machine. Yeah. I would do my cog work, make my money so I can go get drinks like yeah keep your head down that's my advice yeah I would try to I think it's really hard um and I again no good deed goes unpunished so if you tell Allie like you then you're a part of this like everyone shoots the messenger and then you're the office snitch oh I hate to see and that's a label that's very very

hard to get rid of yeah I would um try and stay out of it yeah um also sorry that's like boring advice yeah but it's most prudent there also could be more that you don't know like so just leave it alone yeah maybe they're a throuple Like Yeah don't involve yourself Like you know what Everything Everything works itself out in the end It really does Yeah The cream always rises

And that's Our show That is Our show That is Our show Nobody else's show None whatsoever

No we have to Recap Real Housewives of Dallas Oh yeah And the Britney documentary That's actually not our show Okay so Real Housewives of Dallas Super quick Was such Britney documentary that's actually not our show okay so Real Housewives of Dallas super quick um was such a boring episode and it was kind of like the worst edit for Tiffany Moon of all time yes I think it was a boring episode but it was very

illustrative of people's personalities yes and I think that Tiffany Moon has had like a really great season so far and now it's like everything about everything that she did in last night's episode and hosting people in her house like was totally crazy. She is a control freak and she's not a good host. No and she's also a control freak which is by the way like sometimes can be endearing and like you cut like you know if you're self-aware about it and it's funny. But she was just like going about everything in the wrong way and it really reached a pinnacle when she was the reason why Brandy needed to throw up. And then also made Brandy put on booties in order to go into the house to throw up. Like, yeah, that was crazy.

Right. Cause it's not being a control freak. Isn't a bad thing, but it's the way that she controls. That's so derogatory. I think like, and that's what Cameron was saying. Like when she corrected her grammar, like it's okay to correct someone's grammar, but like it, she has this way of like treating, talking to other people, like their kids, like you will put your booties on you will go to the bathroom you will take your booties off you will come outside like it was just very condescending and so I think that's what rubbed people the wrong way more so even the way she sent the text message okay you need to have people out of your house by 11 you as the host you can make that happen you don't have to send a text message like to make people feel unwelcome in your home at 10 31 yeah it was all

kind of done in the wrong way and also it takes the fun out of everything like nobody wants to feel like you're an imposition in someone else's house it's like why am i here if i can't even walk into the house without shoes or i can't go to the bathroom like why did i come here and honestly she should have just had everyone take their shoes off and like give away give out flip-flops or something yeah i mean i i respect and i know that it's a really big thing in Asian culture and it makes a lot of sense. Like bringing your dirty subway shoes. It makes complete sense. And to have them wear the booties like through the house when they go to the outside.

Sure. I just thought that in the moment where Brandy was throwing up like it was extreme. Agreed. Like at some point the booties we can forget about. Especially because Tiffany felt so terribly that she was the reason why Brandy needed to throw up yeah and the prank thing um I think it's I like the idea of pranking especially because it's huge in this group of girls especially with Brandy obviously but it is um it's a difficult thing when you're pranking somebody with something like say you were allergic say you're allergic say you're kosher like it like if someone put crickets in my food

like that's not okay that's not okay yeah and so I thought like a lot of the people had had Say. You were allergic. Say you're allergic. Say you're kosher. Like if someone put crickets in my food. That's not okay. That's not okay. Yeah. And so I thought like a lot of the people had different reactions. Like I thought D'Andra like handled it like the best. I think mostly she feels protective over Tiffany. Because she brought her into the group.

So she was like oh it's not a big deal. And then Carrie Brittingham. But also D'Andra we know is the most adventurous eater. Yes. Carrie Brittingham like was just so annoying. She's like I knew like, I knew it. I knew it. Like, no, you didn't, first of all.

You literally had no idea. She got you 100%. And then she was just, like, she was fine with it. Like, she was just being, she was just mad because she doesn't like Tiffany. Like, she was just making things up and, like, trying to make her feel bad. Brandy, on the other hand, like, that was really unfortunate, you know? Yes. And, like, that's why you don't do a prank like that.

Right. So it just felt bad for her because, like, she, like, tried to get him with, like, the pranksters and, like, that's not a good place to start. No, there's nothing sadder than, like do a prank like that. Right. So it just felt bad for her because she tried to get him with the pranksters. And that's not a good place to start. No, there's nothing sadder than a prank on a ride like that. And she ended it feeling so bad. Brandy felt so bad. It was just not good.

Yeah. I'm so excited for Cameron Westcott's new home. I just need her old house to sell. And I need to see the inside of the house. I know. I love Cameron's home scene so much. Like first of all, Bruno loves watching Fancy. Like he always, Fancy on the treadmill? Yeah. What's Fancy doing? Right. Like accountability coach. Fancy's in the car. Like loves Fancy. And I, I feel like I actually learned a lot about dog

training, like from her scenes with the dog trainer. So it's like, typically I would probably be uninterested in like someone's dog. Like's your storyline but she makes it so funny and interesting and I just like love her family me too and another person who's um like family scenes or personal scenes I really like is Stephanie Holman and the Holman Foundation like just um learning the intricacies of like standard lockers cost $275,000. Like that's crazy. And I actually think it's such a nice, I'm like, when they were like, we're going to give away lockers. I'm like, who needs a locker in their house? But like she's doing it for schools and colleges that are struggling. And it's actually such a nice way to get concept. Yeah. And I can't wait to see what

the Holman Foundation accomplishes. Yeah, no, it's, it's really cute. And it's cute watching her and Travis work together. And I love that they do confessionals together because they're always so funny. Your back is hairy. Peach fuzz. He's like, you're fuzzy. I'm hairy. No, they're really, really cute. I agree.

But it was a crazy dinner party. It just did not look fun. No, it did not look fun at all. So many rules. And it's such a fun concept. And Tiffany's house is so amazing. Oh, it's so nice. And I many rules. And it's such a fun concept and Tiffany's house is so amazing. Oh it's so nice. And I feel like it could have been such a fun night and it was just one of those like disaster evenings. And I found it weird because I think the whole point

of the party and Tiffany had said was she really wants to get to know the girls and she wants them to get to know her and she was just like forcing it so much that like every time she shared an anecdote it felt so awkward like every time she shared an anecdote it felt so awkward like when she said like I used to pronounce jalapenos jalapenos like that is a funny thing but like she was just like forcing the conversation on everyone and like everyone was like like no one was talking about that before so the whole thing I felt like she was just really uncomfortable the whole time because because she cares and also like when you are a control freak like having people in your house like I feel like I can be that way too where it's like I'm more stressed hosting people than I am like even I feel like when they

went and had dim sum like she was so much more relaxed yeah in your home it's very personal yeah and you have a lot there's like so many things happening and so I think she was really overwhelmed and her intention for the night turned out to be the complete opposite. Yeah. Well, we'll see what happens next week. At least it was interesting and that pizza oven just looks so good. Yeah. Oh, and if you're living for Real Housewives of Dallas, we have a very special moment on the toast tomorrow. I don't want to spoil anything, but just make sure you check back in with us tomorrow.

Yes, if you're living for Real Housewives of Dallas. Like, I'm really... We're about to do... We're recording this segment right after this. We're about to do some investigative Fucking journalism Diane Sawyer Like yeah Nancy Grace

We're about to get some answers for you guys Just call me Nancy Grace Nancy Disgrace Queen Nancy Disgrace Now I want to talk about the Britney Spears documentary Which is a part of a New York Times series They're doing on FX And one of the episodes is about Britney

And there's only one What's the series? It's like a documentary It's different things each episode What are some of the other is about Britney. Oh, there's only one? What's the series? It's like a documentary. It's different things each episode. What are some of the other episodes? I didn't look. Oh, okay. That's so interesting.

I didn't know that that's what it was. I haven't watched yet. The most recent one is Framing Britney Spears. And I don't really feel... So it's just one short... It's an hour and 10 minutes. Oh, okay. I thought it was a whole like eight part.

No, I hate that shit. Okay, maybe I'll watch it tonight because I know people really want to talk about it, but you're about to talk about it to be honest I don't really feel like I learned anything new because you know we did a deep dive on on Free Britney um a few months ago so like I'm pretty well versed I grew up listening to Britney like I remembered a lot of what they were talking about the conservatorship stuff is really really interesting and I actually really liked how the documentary like found the people who are like there's a podcast called like Britney's

World or something like these two girls who are obsessed with Britney dissecting it they came up with the Free Britney movement um these podcasters were on the New York Times um documentary which I thought was really cool and they had legal experts and stuff obviously for me while I didn't learn anything new from the documentary the biggest takeaway was just like one like how even though the media is the worst like we've made a lot of progress since like Britney's one like how even though the media is the worst like we've made a lot of progress since like Britney's time like just some of the clips they were showing her being interviewed by Diane Sawyer her being interviewed by Matt Lauer jokes that were being made about her in late night David Letterman who like every time I hear

something like about David Letterman recently it makes me hate him even more Jay Leno just the way we spoke about like a 17 year old girl like it's just so abhorrently disgusting and something like that would never happen again but really the documentary opened my eyes to like how many people owe Britney Spears an apology and like I would really like to start first with well Matt Lauer owes a lot of people but like him honestly and I hate to even point out like the woman but like Diane Sawyer was so grossly disappointing. Like, the clips they were showing, it's just chilling. You can't really believe that, like, someone said this to Britney. Like, she's a 17-year-old girl crying on this interview, and Diane Sawyer's like,

what did you do to Justin Timberlake to, like, make him so upset? Oh, I heard Justin Timberlake comes out looking... He's on the list of people who owe Britney apology. He, like, when they broke up, like, he used it to his advantage. his advantage like literally villainized her so much insinuated in so many overt ways like she cheated on him broke his heart they were like America's sweetheart America was very susceptible back in the day to like listening to whatever the tabloid said yes so the tabloid narrative was like American royalty like we don't have royals but like Britney and Justin together like that is American royalty and she it was never really said like why they broke up,

but Justin made a music video, Cry Me a River, like all about Britney cheating on him. And like that was kind of the accepted narrative. And Justin and his camp really drove that home. And I just want to say, and that was the start of Britney's, like it really was the start of her decline. Wow. Mental health wise, career wise.

And the conservatorship stuff is so, is so crazy. Okay. I will watch it now that I know that it's not like this whole long thing just want to say I never liked that song cry me a river yeah no and we have been really preaching on here like so viciously about how Justin Timberlake is disgraceful like now there's New York Times said it so like it's true no I saw people were like tagging me and stuff about how like this is like that we were saying this first and it's it's nice to um because we got like we get a lot of flack for like not being fans of his no I literally Like, this is, like, that we were saying this first. And it's nice to, um...

Be recognized. Because we got, like, we get a lot of flack for, like, not being fans of his. No, I literally despise him. And after the documentary, like, I hate him even more. Like, he knew exactly what he was doing. Oh, my God. I'm going to hate him so much. I know.

And the documentary did just make me sad. Because, like, they have all this behind-the-scenes footage. And, like, she really was... And they had, like, you know, people who worked for her as assistants and agents. She really was like what you thought she was like southern belle like surrounded herself with her family so funny talented nice to everyone even at the height of her fame and until it took a turn where like her mental health was and like in all the interviews where like people were talking about her like

they never even said mental health like it was so clear she was struggling with with some sort of like you know mental health issue mental illness and like no one would even acknowledge it you know they just threw her in a conservatorship yeah and the legal the legality now they catch up to like 2019 and 2020 the legality of the conservatorship is so shady and they had this woman who at the beginning of like the trials with the conservatorship was on jamie spears the dad's legal team and in the beginning of like the trials with the conservatorship was on Jamie Spears the dad's legal team and in the middle of the documentary I guess she got rehired for Jamie Spears the dad and like they literally had to put up a blurb like she stopped filming because she rejoined

the legal team wow yeah so what would be best for Britney now so when people say free Britney what do they want for her so Britney's legal team isn't opposing the conservatorship they don't want her dad in charge of her money anymore like they don't want him involved at all. Britney and it's and in the whole documentary like leading up to her you know becoming famous, world tour, he was never around. Like her mom really took her to all these auditions and then when she became famous she kept her mom and her childhood friends around and her sister. But like the dad was not in the picture. Like he struggled with his business. He filed for bankruptcy. I believe he went

to rehab. And so like he was never really in Britney's life. So now when she's at her lowest and needs a conservator, like why would it be the dad? Yeah. Why is it him? I don't know. And like they recently got him to not be the conservator of like her business, but he is still the conservator of her finances. And he takes, he gets paid as being the conservator 1.5% of all of Britney's earnings.

And for a while he was in charge of all of her business. So he would literally just make her work, work, work, work, work. And there were those years, like, when she was doing the Vegas, and she had Circus and all those fragrances. That was when she was on the conservatorship, and she was, like, quote, unquote, like, behaving. And, like, they would just literally put her out on tour. This project, campaign, commercial, making so much money because Jamie was making money from it. Like, Britney couldn't say yes or no.

Like, he was legally allowed to make all of her decisions for her. So now Britney's case is, I'm sure Britney doesn't want to be in the conservatorship, but to get it expelled is, like, legally, one of the lawyers was like, I've never seen it. So her best chance is just to get her dad removed from it. And hopefully, like, her mom. Or she asked for a bank like a financial institution to be like the executive whatever of her conservatorship

Wow and Sam her boyfriend is just like you know has found his voice and now that people are talking about it I'm sure he's like known about this for a while he's like posting on Instagram talking to TMZ like Jamie Spears is a dick and what I did learn is that the mom's name is Lynn and the dad's name is Jamie and then we have Jamie Lynn Spears so that was interesting that is is Jamie Lynn Spears she wasn't in it whatsoever but what I also found interesting was they have a brother like who knew and he went on a podcast once and like kind of spilled major tea and like I'd never heard of the podcast before and I would probably have never

known that he did a podcast but he he was not holding back okay I'm gonna watch it today guys actually I have a really busy day so maybe this weekend um but yes I liked it very much even though I didn't learn anything new it did just make me angry which I think is what a documentary is supposed to do yeah or make you feel something yeah um so that is actually now that is our show yes thank you guys so much for listening to the morning toast the millennium morning show where make you feel something.
