Starting point is 00:00:00 Good morning, Millennials! Welcome back to the Morning Toast. Hey, Claude! How ya durn? Hello, Jacqui. I'm doing just great. How are you? I am good. As you guys know, I'm on vacation, which is the reason for the season of audio only. And it's like I needed a vacation so badly. When I was home before I was leaving. I was just like feeling like I shouldn't even take this vacation. Why? That's how much I needed one. I just like felt like it was so frivolous. But like now that I'm here, I'm like, no, bitch, you needed to go.
Starting point is 00:00:32 There's literally no such thing as a vacation that's too frivolous. That's the point of vacation. They're frivolous. And I'm working through it. So I actually don't feel too useless. And so to me, that's like the perfect kind of vacation. But so far, it's been so great. I got some sunshine, so I'm no longer green and purple. And I also put on ample sunscreen. I learned from you. Snatchler learned your lesson.
Starting point is 00:00:56 And I didn't get sunburn or anything, just like a little. Actually, when I put on sunscreen, then I get nothing. So it's like, what's the point of even sitting out there but I definitely think the vitamin D is good for me so I'm just I'm sun-kissed I'm enjoying and I'm happy to be back on the toast to talk about everything that we need to talk about I feel like you're definitely sun-kissed in a more of like an emotional sense than a physical sense yes definitely emotionally kissed by the sun. Yeah, because I'm looking at you and you look the same. Hurtful. No, that's good. That means you didn't expose yourself to harmful rays.
Starting point is 00:01:33 It's true. I'm so not about harmful rays. Like at this stage in my life, I've learned. We are entering the big three out. Like we cannot be just exposing ourselves to harmful UV rays. No, it's about the SPF 70 and the bucket hat. You guys, bucket hats save lives. I feel that so strongly. And it's like, has Gwyneth Paltrow been teaching us absolutely nothing in her time on this earth? Like protect
Starting point is 00:01:56 your skin. Protect your skin. I want to know how your weekend was because as you told us on Friday, you were going to need copious amounts of adrenaline to get through. I'm choked up thinking about it. And I want to know how it went for you. Did the truckers for adrenaline come through? Yeah. You know what? It actually ended up like not being that overwhelming, you know, like it was a manageable amount of social outings. Like I didn't need to tap into my reserves of adrenaline. It was just like, I guess that's like what normal people do on the weekends. But like when I'm hungover, I literally don't leave my house, but it was so gorgeous in New York Saturday and Sunday. And I managed to get out of the house both days. And I was really glad that I did. I had lunch with
Starting point is 00:02:36 Kaylor yesterday and it was super special. I heard Kay hit the town yesterday and that really hurt, that hurt me. She also went shopping and like I always thought you know her auntie would take her shopping one day so yeah that cut deep but these are the sacrifices we make to go on vacation you know it's so true you literally miss like pieces of your niece's life like growing up yeah no it's like I've been in the city for a whole ass year Kayla steps out the day I leave. No, that's just how life works. No, like man plans, Kayla laughs. She literally laughed directly in my face yesterday.
Starting point is 00:03:12 Oh my God, was it the sound of angels singing from the heavens? We actually had an amazing day. And so I was really glad to see the daylight, even though usually I literally don't get out of bed on the weekends, but it was kind of nice. I was into it. Interesting. Yeah, that's always a cool thing to do, is get out of bed on the weekends but it was kind of nice I was into it interesting yeah that's always that's always a cool thing to do is get out of bed yeah it is
Starting point is 00:03:29 sometimes um aside from that I just want to do a little plug because yesterday we dropped a new patreon episode all about our anniversary the Q anniversary you know it's the one year anniversary of two weeks to flatten the curve so Claudia and I did a Q&A taking all of your questions. And the episode, much like the year, was very much an emotional roller coaster. Like there were highs, there were some lows. We just like let it all out. We're talking about everything from the past year. Toastmageddon, Zoom toast, like all of the things.
Starting point is 00:04:00 There was a lot to unpack. There was a lot to unpack. So it's up now at patreon.com slash the morning toast. Check it out if you're looking for more content from us because you're not seeing our beautiful, stunning, and smart faces. Speaking of beautiful, stunning, and smart faces, merch is available now at chatmorningtoast.com. Also, it's worth mentioning that nothing about my face today
Starting point is 00:04:19 is beautiful or stunning. So it's probably for the best we're doing a remote podcast episode. For sure. But you're still smart, Claude. You're still smart. I mean, I'm literally a merit scholar. Yeah, we love to see it. We have a great show for you guys today. Of course,
Starting point is 00:04:34 like, nothing really happened over the weekend, but Real Housewives of Atlanta was on last night. I watched, so we'll talk about that, and we'll just, like, shoot the shit to get you through this treacherous Monday. Yeah, it's a super Monday, but like you said, really nothing much, like no breaking news. Usually on a Monday, there's something that we have to get down to business. So today we just like could get down to business if you're ready.
Starting point is 00:04:55 I'm so ready. You don't want to sing about it? No, I don't. I'm literally like still hungover. If I sound monotone, that's why. I'm not in any position to be singing. And you know what? I think there'll be a lot of people who are really grateful for that. Okay. Those people are going to like keep you drunk so that you don't sing. They'll see
Starting point is 00:05:14 me out in public and they'll send me shots. It's a great way to get free drinks. Okay. But also without further ado, it is time for the fast five Stories that you need to know before you wake up and take a bite out of your morning toast. And speaking of hangover, today's sponsor could not be more pertinent because it is brought to you by Liquid IV. You all probably know about the Liquid IV popular hydration drink mix. Their energy multiplier is an absolute game changer and gives you that little extra boost we all need. So I love the hydration mix. I hate drinking water, and I also find it really helpful when dealing with a hangover, but their new product, the energy multiplier is the bomb. It's time to clean the slate and start 2021 off on the right foot. If you stick, one stick of the energy multiplier is like drinking two cups of coffee. So if you
Starting point is 00:05:59 want to stop drinking coffee or just kind of wean off coffee, this is a great product to use it because it's an all natural alternative to process energy drinks for a sustained energy boost throughout the day. So I don't drink coffee, but I do sometimes struggle with needing a boost of energy. And I find the energy multiplier just to be everything of the sort. Perfect for a gal like me. I know a lot of people are trying to cut back on caffeine, so this is the perfect product for it. It's premium matcha and green energy blend energy blend tastes delicious and provides a lasting energy boost throughout the day. It's the boost you'd get from one to two cups of coffee, but without the crash. The energy multiplier contains a mixture of matcha, guayusa, and ginger that's high in antioxidants and helps improve mood and focus.

That's literally me today. OK, our first story of the day. The ships are docking for Quabo and Sweetie. Oh, yeah. Broken up. He's saying you are not the
Starting point is 00:07:21 woman I thought you were. So he took to Twitter hours after his ex confirmed their split on the platform where she implied she left over infidelity she said I'm single I've endured too much betrayal and hurt behind the scenes for a false narrative to be circulating that degrades my character presents don't band-aid scars and the love isn't real when the intimacy is given to other women what's's powerful stuff. That's powerful stuff. She said, I emotionally checked out a long time ago and have walked away with a deep sense of peace and freedom. Well, all we can hope for for anyone is a deep sense of peace. No, in this day and age, there's truly nothing more valuable.
Starting point is 00:07:57 She said, I'm excited for this new chapter of Elevation. And he responded by saying, I know you want to make this into a show, so I'll play my part just this one time I don't normally put I know I don't normally put my business out there especially my personal life I feel the need to address this so there are no false narratives I had love for you and disappointed you did all that you are not the woman I thought you were I wish you nothing but the best oh my god so like they're literally just like both saying opposite things like who who do we believe you know I really feel like in a breakup, like you both can have completely opposite perspectives on what actually went down and they both, both be telling the truth.
Starting point is 00:08:33 A hundred percent. There's your side and my side and the truth. Yeah. That's literally it. Like what you just said. Yeah. No, there's three, there's three sides to every story, but don't you ever feel like, yes, there's your side and there's my side and my side is the truth? No, by the way, there's only two sides to every story. Your side and the truth. You mean in this story between you and I? Oh, yeah, sorry, I fucked up that joke.
Starting point is 00:08:58 Okay, like there's only two sides to every story. Your side and the truth. Do you get it? I think you're trying to say that like anything you feel is. I'm saying my side is obviously the truth. Do you get it? I think you're trying to say that anything you feel is... I'm saying my side is obviously the truth. Yes, yes, yes. I said that. I said that too. You know, I was trying to like word it up for you. Which I think this conversation
Starting point is 00:09:14 just underscores the fact that like literally there's three sides. Yeah, because you could be communicating with someone in the same language and not be understanding each other whatsoever. You literally think that your side is the truth. I think I'm saying my side is the truth so then there's the actual truth right but most of the time like my side is 100 the truth that's your truth and you should live out your truth you know fuck that it's not my truth it's the truth okay don't play those games
Starting point is 00:09:41 with me well hopefully one day we'll get down to the truth with Quavo and Sweetie but in the meantime like this I'm sad that they're broken up me too I actually really liked them as a couple but like Sweetie is everything and I'm not mad that we're gonna like get to see her like you know launched onto the dating scene in young Hollywood because she's just like so sickeningly gorgeous and she has some of the most fire looks he did get her a few Birkins and I also believe a Bentley so I'm just curious like where that lands like does she get to keep it I would imagine that you get to keep it because even think about like you know non-celebrity relationships your boyfriend gets you a necklace like you don't give it back so just because the presents are on a bigger scale doesn't change the rules
Starting point is 00:10:22 yeah but do you think like aren't cars, don't you have to give cars back? Like a lease? Oh, if it's leased. Does that still count as a present if someone gets you a leased car? Well, remember with Kylie and Tyga, like, there was that whole thing with, like, a leased car? So I just need to see the registration. Is it leased or bought? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:42 I didn't know people buy cars. Like, I thought everyone leased them. It depends. It just depends. Especially for these, like, really nice cars. They're collector's items. Right.
Starting point is 00:10:51 You don't lease a collector's item. I guess that's super true. Oh, that's like that line from that Kanye West song. Do you know what I'm talking about? Hold on.
Starting point is 00:11:00 I need to Google it. Where is my fucking mouse? Yeah, it's about a Maybach. Kanye West. Maybach. Lyric, Maybach lyric. Lyrics.com. Okay, here. Rick Ross?
Starting point is 00:11:14 No, that doesn't sound right. Hold on. Take your time. Kanye West. How do you spell Maybach? M-A-Y-B-A-C-H. But it's not, it's a song by, okay, the song by Rick Ross called Maybach is really getting in my way. Because I believe it features Kanye West.
Starting point is 00:11:32 Do you know another word that's in the lyric? Yeah, they're talking about a guy. It's like... Do they say lease? No, yes, it's like white people, hold on. It's like a hilarious lyric. How do you spell Maybach? M-A-Y-B-A-C-H. It's just like really bothering me now that like I can't find it. Oh, I found it.
Starting point is 00:11:53 I found it. Okay. Okay, show more. Someone is screaming into their phone. I know. I know. Sorry. But like I used to live for this song.
Starting point is 00:12:01 Okay. He asked me about my Maybach. Think he had the same except mine's tinted and his might have been rented you know white people get money don't spend it or maybe they get money by business whatever i just thought that was like a pertinent line yeah i think that that relates yeah well there was a time in my life where like you cannot play that song without me torturing you like i knew all the words and it was like the only song I knew all the words to what song is it click click click click click yeah it was really not that hard to learn that's cool that you knew all the words to
Starting point is 00:12:34 that you know I'm kind of like a really um like smart person yeah okay well you ready for our next story because speaking of the dating market someone's off of it who Bella Thorne is engaged oh yeah her boyfriend Benjamin Mascalo after nearly two years of dating cool um she's been like you know a mainstay on the market for years no she um she's a girly girl like I literally don't know what to say about her. I know. We haven't talked about her in a really long time, but she's such a big celebrity,
Starting point is 00:13:10 and everyone's always talking about her. But now she's engaged, so I feel like that's news. Well, she's just an interesting celebrity, because I know we're not supposed to compare women, but I do. And I compare her so often to Zendaya. They really started out together. And when you see where Zendaya is and how different of a career she ended up
Starting point is 00:13:25 having than Bella Thorne, it's just so interesting to see like Bella Thorne is, I would say she's an influencer more than an actress. Yeah. Yeah. They're very different. I would never really even think to compare them, but yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:38 But shake it up Chicago. Of course they were both shaking it up in Chicago. Yeah. And they really shook the fuck out of that place. They did. That show was really good. I know. And the theme song was bomb, too. For sure. The dance moves sickening. Original TikTok. Literally, like before TikTok was a thing. Okay, well, here's the deets. On Saturday, the 23-year-old actress and the Italian singer announced their engagement after nearly two years
Starting point is 00:14:03 of dating. She said yes, he shared on Instagram, while Bella shared a video of herself showing off her pear-shaped diamond engagement ring on her Instagram story. Thank you for being amazing, baby. I love you so much. Yay, we're getting married. Celebration in Italy and America both,
Starting point is 00:14:18 he said in a video. Okay, I mean, like, get in line between, like, all the other girls in America who thought they were getting married in Italy this year. Like, good luck finding a venue, because the COVID brides have already rescheduled their weddings, and all the venues are taken. LOL. But you could try France. That's funny.
Starting point is 00:14:38 Thanks. I can't believe she's been dating someone for two years. I had no idea. I thought she was dating Mod Sun. Like, I'm still in that era. Yeah, she was dating Mod Sun, but now Mod Sun is dating... Avril Lavigne. Avril Lavigne.
Starting point is 00:14:51 And Mod Sun, like, briefly dated Tana Mongeau, who also dated Bella Thorne. Bella Thorne. Yeah. So it's a twisted Hollywood love rhombus. Mm-hmm. It really is. Yeah. I don't know who this man is though, but I'm happy for her. I'm sorry to this man. He's an Italian singer. He's, I've heard. Oh, is it Paolo? I heard the Italian camper's a really big fan of his. I heard he's playing at the Coliseum, Paolo, with his girlfriend, Isabella. Bella Thorne. Oh my god.
Starting point is 00:15:25 Oh my god, it's Bella and Paolo. What's his name? Benjamin Muscalo. I think he should change his name to Paolo. Sing for me, Paolo. Are you ready for our next story about what the kids are up to? What the fuck are the kids up to now?
Starting point is 00:15:41 I think you knew this, but I don't know if the toasters at large know this. Mark Wahlberg is launching a Gen Z production company with TikToker Josh Richards. Yes. Mark Wahlberg is getting down with the kids. Page Six has told the actor and Hollywood mogul is launching a Gen Z focused production company with TikTok star Josh Richards. Richards and Unrealistic Ideas, the production company led by Wahlberg, Steven Levinson, and Archie Gipps,
Starting point is 00:16:09 work together to set up Crosscheck Studios, which will be helmed by Richards. They hope it'll become the go-to production company for the next generation and internet native creatives. I mean, Mark Wahlberg's really, really smart. Like, he's not a billionaire for a reason. No, he is a billionaire for a reason. So I actually think that this is a good idea. I just find it really interesting that like all these older people have tapped Josh Richards
Starting point is 00:16:32 specifically to be like the voice of Gen Z. He's on that podcast with Dave Portnoy and now he's been tapped for this. And I don't even think he's like everything of the sort, you know? Yeah. So do you have any inclination as to why it might be him that that he's the go-to do you think that he pitches these people like maybe he josh richards must have an amazing agent like that's literally what it comes down to but maybe he has a business savvy mind and he's like yeah that's possible i don't know these ideas around town because what's
Starting point is 00:17:01 to separate him from noah beck right and like like Bryce Hall, who arguably have more quote unquote clout influence. So I just find it interesting that like he keeps getting chosen for these projects. Yeah. Who was the other one who was like. Lil Hootie? Yes. Lil Hootie. He actually.
Starting point is 00:17:19 And the other guy who was like head of that house, but he was. Griffin. No, he was like. Oh that house, but he was nothing of the sort. No, he was like. Oh, Thomas. Yes. Thomas. Nothing of the sort.
Starting point is 00:17:33 But what I was going to say about. He was the head of the household. No, he was like literally house mom. Like in House Bunny. But then there was like all that drama with. We reported on this story when when hype house like disintegrated they never disintegrated all the good people left so there still is a hype house like house and handle and merch and group but they're not like notable people like they're smaller creators got it but there was just like all this stuff with like payments and stuff that was crazy
Starting point is 00:18:01 and thomas with the house yeah remember that girl who's so pretty daisy she ended up leaving the house because like she had put down like a lot of money for the house but thomas like didn't pay her back there was like honestly we needed a reality show like at that time at the height of the hype house because for a moment it was salacious as fuck right okay now it's all coming back to me and And then Daisy went on to date Brody Jenner. Yes, but very quickly. And she's dated other people since then. What's she up to now? Just being a girly girl. I don't really know. I don't keep tabs on her because like I'm really hitting the threshold of how many teenagers I can keep up with.
Starting point is 00:18:39 You know, that's good. You can only do so many. And keep in in mind i keep up with a lot of teenagers i'm just like hitting my threshold and it's like i do feel like a little weird like watching all these kids who are like literal minors you know yeah i mean you should no it's fucking weird and like these reporters who like hang out with them all day and like write stories about them it's like what are you doing hanging out in a 16 year old bedroom? Like go home, go back to your office. A hundred percent. I feel weird just even like watching for more than an hour, you know? Yeah. I imagine you do. Yeah. I mean, I know you deleted TikTok, but. I did. And you know what? I have so much free time. And even though you send me videos and sometimes I'm so tempted to get back into it., like I think it's so much better for me as a person to not be on TikTok.
Starting point is 00:19:29 Well, then I'm not be for you. And not spend my time like making videos that are just going to embarrass me. Well, that's true. Like the content I put out is like a real shame and a disgrace to my brand. But what I get in return from TikTok, like hours upon hours of just like fabulous content, it's worth the price of admission. I know, but it's like for me, that's hours of hours that I could be like reading
Starting point is 00:19:51 or doing something more productive. So I don't need to add more toxicity to my plate. I really don't. No, I completely understand, but you're missing out on a world of fun. I know I am, but that's why you sent me the highlights that's true okay ready for our next story sure it's a little biz news and i can see the trend biz news cool cool i'm seeing a trend here but i'm also like having deja vu because i feel like we might have spoken about this yeah wait oh my god it was on the home page of cnn
Starting point is 00:20:22 business but the articles's from December. X. What was the story? About Sephora opening up mini shops inside of Kohl's. Yeah, we did that. And then Ulta in Target. Yeah. And then Apple in Target too. Yeah. No, we've totally already heard this story. Skip.

Okay, I found a new story that's even better. Okay.
Starting point is 00:22:38 Ina Garten and Melissa McCarthy are teaming up for a new cocktail special. Oh. Cocktails and Tall Tales with Ina Garden and Melissa McCarthy airs Friday, March 26th. For Ina and Melissa, it's five o'clock somewhere. The Barefoot Contessa star and comedian have teamed up for a Discovery Plus special called Cocktails and Tall Tales. In the special, the pair meet virtually for the first time over Zoom from halfway across the globe. Garden is in East Hampton, while McCarthy calls in from Australia. You know what?
Starting point is 00:23:09 Now that I heard that this is a virtual show, I really don't care, but I'm glad you brought it up. Because you know what I watched last night? Beat Bobby Flay. Do you ever watch? Nope. It's such a crock of shit because, okay, so they have two chefs. The chefs battle each other for who's going to try and beat Bobby Flay.
Starting point is 00:23:28 So yesterday, the episode I was watching was about like crab cakes. And this other guy like made a superior fucking crab cake. The judges said it, when they announced that Bobby Flay was the winner, like my jaw hit the floor. And I get that it's like Bobby's show and like not everyone can always beat Bobby. But I thought it was like so rigged. This other guy like was so much better like everyone loved his tartar sauce they said that like um Bobby's was
Starting point is 00:23:50 like over seasoned and like kind of weird so like I just want to know if anyone else is as outraged at beat Bobby Flay like it's such a it's a piece of shit it's rigged so you think that it's rigged that like you think there's corruption over at beat Bobby Flay? Yeah, I think, well, what I've heard about Bobby Flay, like, just, like, from, you know, people in the industry and also DuMois, is that, like, he's an asshole. Like, he's just, like, a scary, mean guy. So I imagine it's in his contract. Like, he can only get beaten so many times because he has a reputation to uphold as, like, the best chef ever. So, like, the best chef ever doesn't get beaten all the time. So I imagine there's only a certain amount of times that he can lose. And you know, he had already hit his quota when filming
Starting point is 00:24:29 this last episode because I couldn't believe like after hearing the judges, I'm like, there's no way Bobby's winning. Yeah. Well, I have a question. Remember when we were growing up, he had a show where he would like go, I don't think it was called Beat Bobby Flay, but it's like kind of the same premise. He would go around and find like the person in the country makes the best crab cakes. Yeah. And then he would like try and out crab cake them. He's so aggressive. Like just let someone have a crab cake and let you have a crab cake.
Starting point is 00:24:52 You don't have to beat everyone. Yeah. And it's like this person spent their whole life making crab cakes. And like you just come in and you think that yours should be better than your Bobby Fly. Like why can't people have their specialties? 100%. Like he literally like finds people in the country to Flay. Like, why can't people have their specialties? A hundred percent. Like, he literally, like, finds people in the country to, like, attack.
Starting point is 00:25:09 Like, leave them alone. Like, it's so aggressive, like, the competitive nature. He literally, he finds people in the country who have worked so hard at their craft, and he just wants to come in there and tell them. Just destroy their self-worth. That it's not as good as it is. And it's worth mentioning, I've eaten at a Bobby Flay's steakhouse in Atlantic City, and it was an actual shit show. Like, it's worth mentioning, I've eaten at a Bobby Flay's steakhouse in Atlantic City and it was an actual shit show. Like, it was the
Starting point is 00:25:27 worst restaurant I ever ate at. So, I just don't think Bobby Flay is so great. That's all I'm saying. And I think, like, the way he, like, insists on challenging people, it's like, Jackie, it's a meme like this. Nobody. Literally nobody. Bobby Flay, do you think you can make a
Starting point is 00:25:43 better crab cake than me? Like, chill the fuck out, Bobby. I'm trying to figure out if it was me, Bobby Flay, or what's throw down with Bobby Flay. I feel like that's what he used to like invite people over to his backyard. No, no, no. This is it. This is it. Chef Bobby Flay travels around the U.S. That's literally what we said. He's so aggressive wait and tries to beat award-winning cooks at their own game leave them alone you have your own tv show like it's even sadder while the
Starting point is 00:26:14 unsuspecting cooks think they're participating in one food network special it's an ambush it's a fucking cook-off ambush flay and his team study up on their opponent's dish and get an unfair advantage they fucking steal the recipe oh my god no i'm telling you there is something with bobby flay like i really do not fuck with him like i feel like he's a really aggressive guy i just feel like i don't know why you have to be the best at everything like yeah and why you have to insist on like tearing down the confidence of other chefs like there there literally can be more than one cook in the kitchen Bobby like chill the fuck out yeah I I agree with you there I don't like these premises no me neither and I think we talk about this all the time but like the way that
Starting point is 00:26:59 Food Network has shifted to exclusively game shows is so annoying so annoying but that's why Discovery Plus is a godsend. Maybe they did that to, like, bother everyone enough to, like, need Discovery Plus. Because I'm sure there are people who like it, but, like, we just don't need that many episodes of guys' grocery games, you know? Well, like, I don't know about that, but... No, but, like, the only type of competition show, like, I really like is, like, Tabitha Takes Over. Okay.
Starting point is 00:27:24 She was an icon. Oh I only like British Baking Show and that's not even Food Network. Yeah actually I also like those Food Network like Halloween cupcake specials where you have to make like a crazy cupcake. Yeah but like good or bad because aren't there's like also like worst cooks. Yeah yeah but they also have celebrity worst cooks and that's actually good. Like I saw an episode with Lonnie Love from The Real, and it was probably one of the funniest things I ever saw. I think about it all the time. That's great.
Starting point is 00:27:52 Yeah, but they have a lot of unnecessary shows. And I think someone needs to call out Bobby Flay. And I also think that someone, I don't know. I think we just did. Maybe Ina needs to show up to Bobby's's and be like from one pro to another calm down shut the fuck up like already like everyone's fucking sick and tired of you nobody even wants to beat you bobby's gonna be like bobby's gonna be like a 95 year old like anyone want to challenge me like nobody cares bobby like go go to bed totally well if you care about aina melissa
Starting point is 00:28:22 mccarthy you've got a virtual special waiting for you on Discovery Plus where they're making cocktails they've also I guess never met before so it's not like we're watching celebrity and like an unlikely celebrity friendship that's just weird I hate virtual shows I just part way through the special I know I can't believe we're still doing them like I thought we were done part way through the special their husbands join and make a double date. But like, that just sounds like an amazing show premise for IRL. Yeah, no, it's something that we could have waited until everyone's been vaccinated so we could get it filmed in the Hamptons.
Starting point is 00:28:56 100%. Well, speaking of filming, last night was Real Housewives of Atlanta. Wait, we have our fifth and final story. Oh, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. It was confusing because there was a hiccup. I so deeply apologize. And Bobby Flay has a tendency to throw people off their feet.
Starting point is 00:29:11 You're telling me. But our fifth and final story is actually a little great news for Ben. The Mrs. Doubtfire director confirms existence of an R-rated cut. On Friday, director Chris Columbus revealed that an R-rated version of the beloved 1993 comedy Mrs. Doubtfire exists, though there is not an NC-17 cut of the film. The confirmation came first from Entertainment Weekly following a viral tweet that noted Robin Williams, who played Euphigenia, improvised so much that there were PG, PG-13, R, and NC-17 cuts of the film.
Starting point is 00:29:43 That's crazy. The official film is rated PG-13. The director explained that the numerous cuts came as a result of Williams asking to let me play after he did a few scripted takes. He would then go on for 15 to 22 takes with his own improvised lines. He would sometimes go into territory
Starting point is 00:29:58 that wouldn't be appropriate for a PG-13 movie, but certainly appropriate and hilariously funny for a rated R movie. The director said. I would be open to maybe doing a documentary. About the making of the film. And enabling people to see certain scenes. Re-edited in an R-rated version.
Starting point is 00:30:13 That sounds amazing. Just release the tapes. We don't need a documentary. Just release the tapes. I mean no. You can't release the tapes. Like in an unstructured way. Like there needs to be some structure.
Starting point is 00:30:24 And I would watch like a little documentary. Oh, speaking of which, I actually watched most of the college admissions scandal documentary because Zach was watching it and I walked into the room and I was captivated. I'm not going to lie. What did you think about like the style they did it? Dramatized slash documentary. Loved it. I really, really liked it.
Starting point is 00:30:43 I thought because they had all the tapes and stuff it was nice to be able to watch it as close to real life as possible um i thought they did a really good job with the whole thing and i also think that at the end of it you know their pov was not what you would have expected because obviously like everyone is mad at the parents for putting their kids in this situation but the issue at play here is so much bigger than just Operation Varsity Blues. Like that was like a huge problem. But like there are also other big problems that people aren't talking about. Arguably bigger problems.
Starting point is 00:31:15 The corruption at these elite schools. It's just like it's a broken system. It's a broken system. And the way society puts so much emphasis on those like literal seven schools when there are thousands of good colleges in the country and it also really doesn't matter where you go to college yeah and the the documentary said that they think people are going to be like more that yes sort of scandal makes these schools more desirable but for me like i feel the opposite way like it just highlights the fact that like it's all kind of bogus right
Starting point is 00:31:45 because even though like we broke down one of the ways of getting into college like paying your way there's still like a fully legal way that a lot of schools welcome it's just more money yeah no there's still a back door right so it's just like so stupid and like corrupt and i thought the documentary was really good and but the frustrating thing is like Rick Singer like just chilling you know going to his community pool and kite surfing on the weekends so frustrating and that Stanford sailing director like oh John so upsetting so upsetting like he the thing is I don't understand why he had to be brought up on charges when he never personally accepted a donation he gave it to the school he
Starting point is 00:32:25 thought it was part of his job yes but i also feel like if you look at the timing of it like he was literally getting arraigned on the day that the story broke so imagine if the first person in the courtroom like actually didn't get charged you know what i mean like now in hindsight we can see that what he did compared to what everyone else did like wasn't that big of a deal but the camera people were like following him into the courtroom he he started to become like one of these you know correct people and and how could how could they have seen that no charges would that that should have been i hope he's like able to make a living well now he does private sailing um so if you are i don't know if there's a huge market for private sailing coaches
Starting point is 00:33:02 for private sailing lessons yes you watch the lessons? Yes. You watch the OC. Lessons or coaches? I guess that's the same. Yeah. It's the same thing. So if you guys are in the South California area and you're looking for sailing lessons. SoCal, the kids call it. SoCal.
Starting point is 00:33:16 If you're looking for sailing lessons for your kids, like, check them out. That was, like, the worst part of the documentary, though. I completely agree. Like, so devastating. Like, such injustice. Now, I believe, was that the worst part of the documentary though. I completely agree. Like so devastating. Such injustice. Now, I believe, was that the final story? Yes, that was fifth and final. And you can share that with Ben later.
Starting point is 00:33:32 That's like a good, you know, conversation starter. I know you guys struggle. We do big time. I know you didn't watch Real Houses of Atlanta and I did. And I'm just here to tell you, like you literally miss nothing except at the end of the episode it got really really good of course like with a to be continued of course but they all meet up at Fallon's house who's like this new gal and she's so sickeningly stunning and her home is everything she's 31 her like boyfriend I don't know if they're married it's 56 and Toya just comes in and is being so fucking
Starting point is 00:34:05 disrespectful. Like just coming and talking about her house. She's like, you're so rich. Like where's a maid? Why is nobody serving me my drink? Like acting just like a, so, so rude. And Fallon really held it together for a while. But then when they're outside fighting, she just starts saying disgusting things about Fallon's like, man, you married for money. Like you don't have any, like nothing to your name. This isn't your house. And this new chick Fallon's like man you married for money like you don't have any like nothing to your name this isn't your house and this new chick Fallon Jackie she fucking loses her mind she literally is running around the house trying to get Toya like the producers are holding her back she just wants to like get in Toya's face it was crazy and then that's where it ended but I like live for this girl and she was so wronged by Toya and I kind of feel like we could be getting set up for a new housewife because she's everything
Starting point is 00:34:47 of the sort. Yeah, that sounds like a really good start and set up. And why would they be going to her house if not? Right. Like, what was the premise behind them? A Halloween party. She turned her house into a haunted house. Oh, cool.
Starting point is 00:35:01 Okay, well, then I'm definitely going to watch. I just have not, I haven't like turned on a TV. I don't even know like you know i have to access my recordings well i also caught up on a few old episodes of atlanta because i was behind and i really loved watching cynthia's wedding i thought it was just like super sweet like we were there for peter with the marriage license of it all and i loved her wedding um with mike but i did think it was interesting how they included like all the anxiety she was having from like the bad press she was getting about having a wedding in the middle of like atlanta during covid um and like i thought it
Starting point is 00:35:29 was an interesting way of like going about addressing it and i'm sure she'll address it more on the reunion but as far as i know like nobody got sick right so it is what it is yeah okay well um i like cried at her vows and her kissing her daughter. Like it was just really, really sweet. And you're right. Like the photography, the videography from, which was obviously like her photographer and videographer's footage was really good. Yeah. And I really liked the way that they showed it to us and I didn't think it needed to be like a whole episode. Me neither. I felt really intimate and like personal and I really enjoyed it. Yeah. So that's that on that. And any other content you've been
Starting point is 00:36:06 watching? No, I literally drank all weekend. I need to go recover. Like this year vacation couldn't have come at a better time for me. I'm so glad to hear that.
