Good morning, Millennials! Happy Friday! It is a beautiful, gloomy Friday here, and hey, Claude, how are you, dern?
Good morning, everyone! Happy Friday, Friday! Gotta get down on Friday!
Ooh, it's the remix!
It's a little, you know, I threw a little R&B in there, you know? Gotta get down.
Well, actually, that's not R&B.
That's like country.
But you know what I mean.
Happy Friday.
Happy Friday.
How's everyone feeling today?
I'm feeling so fucking good, honestly.
There's nothing quite like sleeping in your own bed.
Like, even if you're in a palace, you know?
There's just nothing that can even compare to like the first night's
sleep back in your bed because it's just, at least for me, it's my cocoon, you know? It's my office.
It's my production studio. It is my hair salon. It is my nail salon. And it's just so comforting
to be back in my own bed. And I loved spending a few days at TPG's, but I'm sure you can relate,
Jax. There's nothing like it.
There's nothing like it.
And how's doo-doo-doo?
Doo-doo-doo-doo is really good.
He does this thing.
So Ben wakes up earlier than me, and Ben also does the morning walk in addition to most of the other walks.
But the morning one, like, always.
Yes, same for me.
And then Theo gets back into bed.
I sleep, like, another hour, and Ben leaves. And when Theo gets back into bed, he, like, does this thing. And, like, it for me. And then Theo gets back into bed. I sleep, like, another hour, and Ben leaves.
And when Theo gets back into bed, he, like, does this thing.
And, like, it is sweet, but he curls up in a little circle.
I sleep on my stomach, and he just falls asleep, like, directly on my back,
which is so sweet. But after, like, an hour, 20 pounds on your back, like, starts to hurt.
25, 30.
Don't fucking – I knew you were going to fucking say that. It like starts to hurt 25 30 don't fuck it i knew you were gonna fucking say
that it really starts to hurt that that that's like so sweet of him and it's so sweet that he
wants to be so close to you but like that can't be good for your back no i'm literally walking
around with a limp he wants you to be limping like him that's true he's pimping and limping
oh cutest well i missed him the show has missed him
it's never the same when we don't when he doesn't have a microphone he isn't sharing his thoughts
on the world around him but we'll be back in studio next week which I'm really excited about
I'm also excited I know I've been on vacation but I'm so excited that it's the weekend like
it just feels different but also we've been toasting so like I've been setting in alarms
and so I'm excited for alarm free living plus it's Passover on Saturday the two big nights are Saturday and Sunday which is lucky for everyone
else because we actually don't have to miss any toast because of it right um and but I'm really
excited we're gonna have so much fam time this weekend I know I'm I'm excited obviously because
you know we love a holiday love to see Kayla our family gets together we haven't been together in
a while but this particular holiday well it's definitely not the worst Jewish holiday. I think we all know that's Yom Kippur.
This isn't a great one because of the whole like no bread thing for two fucking weeks.
Yeah, no, it's it's eight days, but it's not it's not a great one. Plus,
there's a long Seder before the meal. So like you don't even get to just dig in.
That part doesn't bother me like it requires a
lot of willpower as you as does a lot of judaism yeah no but like when we were kids like of course
like the prayers like that we had to do it takes like an hour before the meal like that used to
really bother me as an adult now like it's funny like we make jokes like it's it doesn't bother me
that much like the bread thing really fucking kills me yeah and it's always good to see like
who can still read hebrew well yes it It's a competition. Who's struggling in the
off season. Yeah. I mean, I mean, let's talk about it. I think probably Margo is the best
Hebrew speaker in our family. Yes. Because she's the closest from having been in high school,
which is where we excelled. She also spent a summer in Israel that I think really helped her.
Whereas you meant to spend a summer in Israel, but you ended up spending about three days.
A few weeks.
No, I spent like, I think I spent, the trip was five weeks.
I think I spent two to three weeks total.
I really gave it a shot.
I gave it a shot.
Yeah.
No regards.
Who would you say is the worst?
Well, it depends.
Out of the sisters or sisters plus husbands?
Sisters plus husbands, because we know the answer is Ben.
Yes, but it's also like, but Ben at least can read Hebrew.
So like my husband doesn't read Hebrew, so he's not even in the running.
That's true.
But of the people who try, Ben is the worst.
I know.
And I actually said to him last night, like, I hope you've been brushing up because it's
already a long procession, you know? And when Ben gets the book, oh man, it's like dinner's been pushed back 45 minutes.
Yeah. You know, it's going to be like a sad day for anyone. Like it might,
Ben might be the first one to do it. But like when you're so far out from being good at reading
Hebrew that you're going to just switch to the English. But see, he's married to me and he's
not allowed because we're all up for the challenge. So are you. Yeah. No, I always I find it nice to
flex my Hebraic muscles. Well, that's the thing. It's like I feel like maybe if we didn't have to
do it once a year, like we we would be worse. So it's like we almost tune ourselves up every year.
Yeah, I agree. I think it's great.
I'm just excited for my solo, you know?
Which is your solo?
I mean, Kayla is supposed to be singing Manish Chana,
but apparently she's being a diva about it.
She's like, no, I'm waiting.
Oh, wow, she said to ride her over.
Well, I can't believe you don't know my solo because it's literally an iconic moment of the Seder.
Yes, it's literally an iconic moment of the Seder. Yes. It's. Malechayim.
Malechayim.
Ketanus.
Ketanus.
I would continue, but I do believe like saying the prayer in vain is like a huge sin.
Well, I mean, it's not in vain.
We're sharing it with the masses and you're not taking the Lord's name in vain.
So I think you're free if you want to continue with this fucking bop it's a seder bop you guys yes if you are jewish and do a seder like you know the song like literally fists are pumping It's also...
Oh, nope.
That's the bad word
by the way the song is call and repeat that's why like the leader sings the first line and then
everyone joins in and repeats so it's just like it's it's a smash hit you know what's so funny
though is like
you know we've been doing the satyrs like as a family since our whole life and we always do the
same like rhythm and melody and that's I don't know where we like that was like what our parents
did and we learned that at school but it's funny when you get married and see like how people who
were raised like the same but in a different home have different melodies and they're like
what melody are you guys singing and we're like well what melody are you singing yeah no i totally
agree my melody or bust no by the way like there's literally no melody besides ours like ours is
and like when i get like you know on my soapbox and i put like you know a knife to the table to
get myself a little drum like it's so sickening. There's nothing else like it. Like, let's video it and put it on Patreon.
A hundred percent.
Sickening the Seder down.
Down.
Well, that just got me excited for the Seder,
even though I have so much to do to prepare for Passover.
I'm so unprepared.
I'm so unprepared.
I don't even have matzah.
Actually, I just got a box of shmora matzah,
but I don't have, like, I'm so behind.
Yeah, no, me so let's let's do
what we came here to do so that we may prepare for the for the hog for the festival of lights
no that's hanukkah um wait i had something to say oh yesterday i finished that jenny han series the
three um summer books and i just went saw yeah I know I think it's probably about the
time I should Venmo you a hundred dollars for like all the books I've read and all the books
I'm going to read yeah and for my time as well well no I didn't um take any of your time actually
you did you did for my consultations and my support and my fucking kindle yeah okay well so
okay the consultations yes and then also I do believe I owe you a rental fee
for the Kindle that you're not getting back.
It says Jackie's Kindle.
How do I change that?
Okay, so I actually was thinking about it last night
because I was like, you deserve to have
your own little profile with all your little ratings.
You know, I was thinking of making a Goodreads.
Yeah, no, my Goodreads is like literally,
it's like my planner, honestly.
Like I can tell like what I was doing in my life
by my Goodreads account.
So I was thinking that you should do that. way you can write your books Goodreads could make
suggestions for you you would have your own little thing going but when you do that you would lose
all my books that I already have downloaded like we might wind up double buying books yeah that's
silly but you've also kind of already read the ones that I of everything that I've read that I
recommend to you you know what I mean?
So like going forward. I just feel like a renter, you know? Like I can't really make the Kindle my
own. I know. And maybe it's, maybe you should just get one of your own. But I literally have one.
That would be so stupid. I know. But like, I liked having two. Just kidding. I never used a second
one. And I always just wanted someone to use it. So I'm glad. Well, I just want to say now that you have purchased them on your account, I really recommended it. It was so cute and light. I literally read the two second books last night. Like they were so like, you know, I love a short book. It was so sweet. Now I can't wait for the Amazon series because I was having trouble picturing like the people. And I just was picturing the main girl as Lana Condor because like that's who played the main
character into All the Boys I Loved Before but I just really need like Amazon Prime Studios to
like visualize it for me. Yes that's so exciting for you maybe I'll check them out but I am just
yeah you're like you're on like a grade 11 reading and I'm on like grade four with my
summer romance novels but it was so good yeah no I mean
that's so great I'm so happy for you I I'm almost hopefully I'll finish Other Bowling Girl soon
because I have to start reading the book for the redheads we new episode of the redhead shops on
Thursday that one just really snuck up on us what's the book the book is Detransition Baby
I'm really excited to read it so hopefully I'll start on Sunday when I finish Other Bolin Girl,
which is going so, like, it's such a great book, even though it's so long.
So I don't know if you've found this out yet, and I don't want you to spoil the book.
Who is the other Bolin Girl?
So it's clear that Mary is the other, and Anne is the Bolin Girl.
Well, I've only heard of Anne, so we don't know Mary.
No, but in the beginning, like, Mary was,, you know, the queen and Anne was the sorry people.
And now Anne is the literal queen.
Right, right, right.
Queen of England.
Well, we love that for her.
Do we?
I don't know.
We'll find out.
It's so crazy.
I'm really excited to finish reading the book, find out what parts are true, what parts are
fiction, and then also read like the story of Henry and Anne Boleyn because it's like really fucking
crazy, which I already knew.
But reading it is like, wow.
OK, well, you enjoy your trip down.
You are next.
The next book you're going to read is going to be written by McGraw-Hill.
You're doing so much fucking history.
No, I know.
And like after I read Queen victoria's matchmaking that's
literally what i wanted because queen victoria's matchmaking the book pretty much ended with like
world war one because that's when um the so like things sort of fell apart and i'm like wait but i
now i want the next chapter so if anyone knows of a good royals through the world wars book hit me rstww no royals through the world wars because rtt
whatever because with world war one the russian empire german and one other like no longer had
royal families but and now today like we really only have the british royal family so over the
last 100 years the other royal families fell
through I just I want to keep reading about those but there are other royal families besides the
royals but you mean like major like yes like actual position countries of power even though
like the British monarchy doesn't have that much power like they are well regarded I don't know
Meghan Markle shut down splash agency pap paparazzi studio. That's power.
True.
And also Kardashians was on last night, so we are definitely going to recap that episode at the end of today's episode.
So if you're looking for that, stay tuned. But before that, Jax, I think that... You think it's time?
I think we should do it. I think we should just take our towels off and dive off the deep end.
Well, if we dove with our towels, then they wouldn't be there to dry us off.
I said take our towels off.
Oh, oh, okay.
And dive off the deep end.
Thanks for listening.
Okay, sorry you talked so quickly.
I didn't hear what you said.

heard it. The O.C.'s Rachel Bilson, aka roberts and melinda clark aka julie nickel
cooper nickel launch rewatch podcast nearly 18 years after the show's premiere so summer and
julie are watching launching a podcast called welcome to the oc bitches the pot well you know
the line welcome to the oc bitch the podcast will feature former cast members writers musicians and
many people that made the oc the cultural phenomenon that it is today.
As Bilson and Clark recap every episode of the show.
Okay, let's talk about this because I have a few thoughts.
First thought is like I do feel like Rachel Bilson like would hypothetically be like above
doing a podcast and or too busy.
So I was shocked that she took the gig. Like, I don't think Melinda Clark is as
busy and in demand that I understood like, this is a good project for her. Like she has the time.
Yes. Okay. Now, if you just look at it, conversely, maybe it doesn't mean that like
Rachel Bilson's like coming down to podcasting, maybe podcasting has risen up.
I'm sorry. I did not mean that it's a step down.
It's just not something I saw Rachel Bilson doing.
Like she's kind of private.
Like, I don't know.
It's just the Rachel Bilson of it all,
first and foremost, did shock me.
Yeah, I hear that.
But you know, everyone is just getting into podcasting.
Like, I mean, honestly, if Megan and Harry can podcast
and Michelle and Barack podcast, Rachel Bilson can podcast.
If Jackie and Claudia.
My other initial thought was that this seems like it's kind of inspired by the Office Ladies because I believe that's what they do on their podcast.
And that podcast is very successful, like always at the top of the chart.
So I think that they created like a at the top of the chart so I think that
they created like a template a lot of people are following um I don't know I'm not gonna listen to
it even though I love the OC it's just like a it's a type of format for a podcast like it's
obviously effective but for me personally like I can't imagine watching one episode per week like
with other people you know what I mean like yeah it seems like a lot of homework and I feel the same like I feel like I would actually really enjoy it if I had the time
to like follow with the calendar um but maybe maybe you don't watch rewatch with them we've
rewatched it like if they're talking about episode one I know what they're talking about if they're
talking about episode two I know what they're talking about so maybe you just listen I I'm
curious to hear like their personalities I feel likeinda Clark, I just feel like she is Julie Cooper,
Nickel Cooper, like and that's who I would want to hear from.
Yeah, no, Melinda Clark like literally has played the same prototype
of character on every show that she's on, like an entourage.
She was literally like the same type of like Julie Cooper.
So it's difficult for me to imagine her actual personality
is so far off from that.
Yeah. So I think I feel promise. I feel like this is a promising endeavor. Honestly,
I can't say that I'm going to listen to it, but I I'm excited about this. Like it's fun to bring
back. The OC is like such a great show. I'm glad they're not reviving it. I'm glad it's just coming
back in podcast form. Maybe that's what will happen with Hannah Montana.
Oh, I mean, Miley did remember how she went through that phase at the beginning of quarantine
where like she thought she was going to be the next Jimmy Fallon.
Yeah, she did.
She did that.
Yeah.
So back to this.
This is just more celebrities in the podcasting space.
And of course, you know, I remember, you know almost probably more than a year ago like we
were talking about it a lot like celebrities kind of infiltrating the podcast space and it really
bothered me um and it still bothers me so good to know that I'm consistent yeah but now that it's
been a year of celebrities infiltrating the space like do you actually think that the space is any
different no but it is really interesting to see like which like you can be famous, like recognizably traditionally famous and not a single person wants to listen to your podcast.
So it is really interesting to see celebrities that flock to the platform who have actual like influence and like their followers from other platforms or their TV shows are actually following them.
Like Conan, whose podcast is incredibly successful.
I found that really interesting to other celebrities who announced their show.
And like, of course, it makes news because they are traditional celebrities.
But normal people like don't give a shit and nobody listens to their podcast.
So I think it's the kind of thing that separates like the boys from the men, you know?
Yes, I agree.
And then there's also the people who launch like quarantine podcasts who have already quit.
Yeah, never to be heard from again.
Yeah, so it's like, it's not, that separates the boys from the men.
It is not for everyone.
No, and it's way more work.
The wheat from the chafe.
And Claudia, we are wheat.
The wheat from the huh?
From the chafe.
Like between your legs?
Yes, like between your legs.
That's the only chafe I know i think and i know it very well
stop okay let me just let me just clarify and i think it's chafe it's c-h-a-f-f
that's literally the same spelling as why i would think i would think chubbub was c-h-a-i-f
i don't i don't know.
It always autocorrects for me.
Interesting.
You use it so much.
All the time.
It's to separate things.
And also, I don't usually say chafe because when I, like, talk about my chafing, I don't,
and you use the word chafe, I feel like the person you're talking to, like, starts to
imagine, like, your thighs rubbing together.
And I don't want to create that visual.
So I say chub rub because it's, like cute i'm like a little toddler like oh my little chub rub legs she's so cute you know whereas chafe it's like ew she's
sweaty and gross you know hundred percent and that's why you separate the wheat us from the
chafe them i would like to separate myself from the chafe, honestly. Like, it's so tough.
You know what's been one cool thing about COVID?
Like, I haven't chafed in, like,
a year because I haven't, like, had to.
Nah, I was wearing shorts
the other day.
And it was, like,
I've put on some LBs
and, like, my shorts were just, like, not
staying in place. Do you know what I mean?
And that wasn't good.
Yeah.
I'm just like the feeling of like wearing a dress
and like hiking up a hill with your legs chafing,
like it's so distant to me because I haven't left my house
that I'm actually, that's one of the things
that I didn't realize until this moment.
I'm like grateful to the lockdown for, you know?
Yeah.
Okay.
So I just want to clarify the
spellings of each okay separating the wheat from the chafe c-h-a-f-f when you are chafing if you
are in the business of chafe c-h-a-f-e different got it the same but different very different
so um Melinda and Rachel are starting a podcast and i have chub rub and that's that on that
okay our next story is sad but a celebration of a wonderful life legacy and career jessica
walter from arrested development archer has died at the age of 80 jessica walter the emmy winning
actress best known as boozy matriarch Lucille Bluth on Arrested Development,
died on Wednesday.
No cause of death was given, but Deadline reported that she died in her sleep.
Okay.
Oh, my God.
I mean, she's so on that show.
And I know she had, like, a whole career.
I actually saw one of her old movies.
I think you were with me.
Like, that made her a star.
It was, like, a Clint eastwood movie called misty sing for
me misty whatever something and i know that she has had like a huge career but i think of her as
always lucille bluth who was so youthful and like funny and i like i know she was older so this
shouldn't have come as a surprise but i was like shocked when I heard this news. I know, me too, by the way. The movies play Misty for me.
Thank you.
Sing for me, Misty.
I mean, I saw it so long ago.
I don't remember like hating it.
I don't think I saw it.
But actually what's so coincidental is Zach had just,
he, in the last few weeks,
he was watching Arrested Development.
He had never seen it before.
So every time I would like go into the other room,
like it was always playing.
And like literally every single time I would sit down and like just stay for like 30 minutes and Lucille
is that show you know what hmm you know what I just realized she's the original Moira Rose yes
oh my god how the fuck did you know I was gonna say that because I just get you and I had the
same thought when I was because I was oh my god I was literally gonna say Lucille Bluth walked so
Moira Rose could run the fuck out of this place like 100 oh my god I feel so weird that you just
figured out what I was gonna say Claude we see each other no we we do but like that was fucking
crazy um so this is definitely a loss what a life well lived and a wonderful legacy.
And I think we should watch some episodes of Arrested Development today in her honor.
I agree because when someone put it in our chat, so I went to the GIF thing to like find
a Lucille Bluth GIF to share.
And there were just so many, like she has just so many iconic lines.
And that's the type of show literally just for Lucille Bluth that you should watch with
subtitles on because like there's little nuggets of wisdom like in everything
that she says and i think that we should talk about it i think we should talk about
what netflix did yeah i think we should just like be out in the open about it because
that show was like canceled it was like a a random sitcom on like FX and it got
canceled after a few seasons, but it really had this like loyal following. And like 10 years later,
Netflix decided to reboot it and like just pick up where they left off. So of course,
like the community was enthralled and what Netflix did to that show was so disgraceful. Like,
like who's responsible? I don't't know i never watched the new episodes
i started it and i literally couldn't finish it i'm like wow this is an actual piece of shit
yeah don't bother if you're gonna watch rest of development like once they switch to like
the new episodes don't bother yeah yeah honestly like the show has so many gems
obviously lucille bluth but also jo job will arnett like that's where
he got famous and he's so fucking funny like when we try and like whenever there's like a family tv
show you always try and like see yourself your family like in the family i was explaining to
zach who's who who's who in your mind you're obviously portia de ri yes Olivia is um Jason Bateman Jason Bateman you are Job like
and Snitch is Michael Sarah yeah no no no Snitch is um oh the guy from V Buster Buster Buster
yeah but she's also the grandson yeah she's also George Michael George it's such a good show
honestly it's like a great binge like the episodes are super short and it's like not that serious and if you haven't seen it it's so funny but again can't stress
enough Claudia Tobias Fiumke is Ben literally oh my god that's so good you really can find like a
member of your family that's why it was so successful like everyone saw themselves reflected
in the characters from the family like it's so good i'm so glad you agreed like i knew that i was jobe you know a hundred percent like with my magic with the magic
and i won't let the magic die like that's so us and will arnett like he's kind of an underrated
um like actor and celebrity fan of his i feel like you i feel like he's someone you wouldn't
be a fan of oh no i'm a huge fan of him and I happen to think he's really handsome that's like that's so great yeah but he does give off like
annoying energy that I would literally despise yeah he gives off like Conan energy or like Doc
Shepard energy but he doesn't have a podcast so you can still tolerate him 100% but what he has
that in my opinion those others two don't have well you know actually I can't say that that's
that's not fair I just think like he's super you know, actually, I can't say that. That's not fair.
I just think, like, he's super talented.
Like, that's all I'll say.
Okay, that's great.
And he just doesn't give me an annoying vibe.
Like, I hate people for no reason.
Like, ask me why I hate Conan.
Well, actually, I have a reason for disliking Conan.
I honestly don't.
I'm scared.
Like, I don't even want to go down this road of, like,
No, the only reason I don't like Conan is because
Because of the magazine cover.
I know.
Yep.
I know. And then at Dennisis's funeral he was there taking pictures that is a legitimate you know what let's not get into it i heard it was conan
taking the pictures jackie stop it's so mean oh by the way, Bethany's, like, engaged.
I know you talked about it.
Oh, we talked about it on Wednesday with Taylor.
Taylor Strecker.
But, like, cool.
We were, like, speculating, and now she is.
And so that answers our question if she's going to run into marriage again.
Yeah, I know.
I mean, engagement is not marriage.
But, yeah.
Oh, my God.
There's, like, a video playing on the next story of of like a rat and I just what like you know how
sometimes there's a video there's a video player on a news outlet and it just starts some of these
news outlets should be ashamed of their websites like with the ads and the fucking videos I totally
agree and you want to know why there's like a gross ass video playing on this story because
because it's a gross ass story it's the story about the cinnamon toast crunch guy um oh yeah so i know you spoke about it with taylor strecker you spoke about the first half of the
story which is that jensen carp goes viral shrimp tails in his cinnamon toast crunch people find out
that he's married to topanga from boy meets world and lose their fucking minds right there was rope
involved as well and now the internet has turned on Jensen Karp.
He is the, quote, manipulative shrimp tail cereal man.
The internet giveth and the internet
taketh away.
The Cinnamon Toast Crunch Shrimp Saga
has taken a not-so-sweet turn.
Comedian and author Jensen Karp went massively
viral this week for tweeting his unsavory
discovery of sugar-coated shrimp tails
in his Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal. Just days after using his disturbing find to slam So I saw a number of tweets from women who had had past relationships with him
some like personal relationships and some professional uh one screenwriter wrote ha ha
ha my quickly deleted subtweet yesterday said oh no i can't follow the latest viral saga because i
was blocked in 2014 because i was not gracious enough after a surprise threesome but not before
i was told to be careful or i would never work in this town again wow Jensen Karp really thinks highly of himself for someone who I've literally never heard of
yeah actress Melissa Stanton also took to Twitter to say what you may not know about the man behind
the viral posts what like he's a manipulative gaslighting narcissistic ex-boyfriend who once
told me he was surprised I hadn't killed myself because my life was so worthless getting lots of texts from girls still in therapy over his terror at least we have this fun little club oh my god
and he's married to Topanga yeah someone else said just FYI the shrimp tails guy is both a
marketing professional and someone who's lied to my face without flinching um someone else uh
accused him of stealing a podcast idea and name from him.
There's, yeah.
So you can, it's all online.
You can read about it.
But this is just the cycle trajectory.
This is what happens.
Oh my God.
I mean, and by the way, of course, those were all very interesting tweets.
But the one that said like he's a master marketer and manipulator like is this whole
saga fake now that's what I'm thinking this guy said like he's a liar and so is he lying about
all this also I'm not sure what your take was when you spoke about it with Taylor Strecker but I then
saw a tweet that was like even you know questioning what how he handled this whole cinnamon toast
crunch thing and like the general mills reply that was like obviously a reply from a customer
service rep who like replies to things all day and like okay they said the wrong thing but like gaslighting you
i don't know that that's what we would call it no and like that's even like questioning the way
that he handled everything that happened i didn't think much of it when i thought he was just a
normal person i'm like oh that's fun like and he's a comedian or a comedy writer or whatever like
so i thought it was a funny response like you, you're gaslighting me. Now knowing that he actually gaslights other
people like all day long and has a history of being manipulative, et cetera, a liar. Now I'm
like, well, you know, your response is quite problematic, sir. But I didn't think anything
of it before I knew that he was problematic. Yeah. I didn't catch on to this whole thing until it had already like had legs and tails
and was everywhere.
And so it just never really like resonated for me, you know?
Yeah, I mean, I just want to know like
where does Topanga fall in all of this?
That's my concern.
Yeah, I have no idea.
I don't keep up. I don't keep up.
I don't keep up with Topanga either.
I keep up with the Kardashians, though.
Oh, big time.
And we'll get to that.
But next up, Gia Giudice is saying she couldn't believe Will Smith used her sad song on TikTok.
Jackie, you don't know because I know you downloaded it.
You got rid of TikTok.
you don't know because I know you downloaded it,
you got rid of TikTok,
but that song that Gia wrote when she was like six and sang at her dad's birthday party or whatever
in an effort to reunite her family
has gone so viral on TikTok.
And the thing is, most kids on there
don't know where the sound originates from.
And that happens all the time.
Like random sounds go viral
and people don't really know or care
the story on how that sound got popular. So for me, I've just been random sounds go viral and people don't really know or care the story on how that sound got popular so for me i've just been watching it go viral knowing full well the
origin story of the sound and just living for it and it's literally gotten it's the number one
sound it's so popular we can not be in the moment that's so well deserved for gia and like yeah that
just makes me feel good inside
because like that moment was so iconic.
And now there's this platform that like, you know,
plays iconic sounds and they go viral.
And like the wheels of justice, they turn slowly.
Yeah, but they turn.
This has been almost 10 years now,
but they arrive at the station.
And I'm really happy for like the Bravo, you know,
like young social media manager
who does a really good job with the Bravo TikTok.
But TikTok is really not the space for Bravo.
Young Gen Z, they don't watch Bravo.
So they are always doing their best to just like, you know, fit in on TikTok like the rest of us.
And when they posted this clip, they didn't know what they were doing.
And they created a cultural phenomenon.
And I'm happy for them because this is a huge win for them.
Yeah.
And they created a cultural phenomenon. And I'm happy for them because this is a huge win for them.
Yeah.
Also, speaking of Bravo, apparently last night's episode of Summer House,
like it ended with a crazy fight.
And again, they split the screen.
And a lot of people were turning to my meme for solace.
Oh, good, good, good.
I'm glad that your content is resonating with people.
My content is resonating with people.
And our movement is picking up steam.
OK, thank God.
I got like a lot of DMs.
Like, I don't know if you watch Summer House, but like they just did it again.
And it was apparently like a crazy fight.
And it was a crazy thing.
It's so stupid.
It's a crazy thing that they split the screen once again.
I know.
And it's like we get so much filler from these episodes.
Like, give us 30 less seconds of like, you know, some random irrelevant subplot.
Just so we can finish out the actual interesting part
100 percent oh so what did you say about i'm so sorry she said that she was stunned that will
smith used a song she wrote 10 years ago for a recent tiktok of him dancing on a bed and captioned
remembering the time i thought it would be a good idea to make saint patrick's day video alone in a
hotel room she said i had a bunch of friends sending me text messages saying will smith was
singing her song on Instagram.
And when I saw it, I couldn't believe it.
I love Will Smith.
And I thought it was really cool that he did that.
Maybe I'll do one of his songs in return.
I think he could live without that.
But I'm happy for her.
And this has actually been quite a busy year
for Gia Giudice, like just in terms of the press,
because, you know, Jackie brought her
into that whole thing.
Now she's going viral on TikTok.
I don't know.
It's kind of not a bad year to be Gia Giudice.
Everything's coming up Gia.
Everything's coming up Gia.
Yes.
Okay.
Are you ready for our fifth and final story?
It's a departure from things we usually talk about,
but I'm going to relate it back to pop culture
because this is some big shipping news
that is actually, like, affecting the world the world okay have you not heard about this
no the suez canal oh i have of course a ship that was shipping in the suez canal made a wide ass
turn and is blocking the entire canal and it is stopping like billions of dollars worth of shipping while they try to dislodge this 200,000 ton ship. Now I don't know if you guys know this about the Suez Canal, Claude,
I think that you do. The Countess Luanne of it all? The Countess Luanne of it all. Her husband,
Count de Lesseps' family back in the day built the Suez Canal and so I think it's actually like
a major, it's obviously a major trading route But it's also like a major contribution to pop culture
No, I know
Every time I hear Suez Canal
The first thing I think of is the De La Seps family
And I think
I know that it's a 200,000 ton boat
But I think if they flew Luanne out there
To sing Chic C'est La Vie
The boat would just like start moving backwards
And like everything would be undone
The boat would start like shimmying naturally and it would shimmy itself out of
this lodge. Like back it up. And no, and like Luann would throw down so hard that the boat would have
no choice but to back it up, but back it up and just like back its way out of the Suez.
Yeah, no. Or if you put like a sickening couple on there, like Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Kelly,
all of a sudden we have to ship.
Yeah.
The boat starts leaving the port.
I think that they should really just fly us out there, head over to the operations tent, and we've got some ideas.
So I hope everyone's okay.
And we're thinking outside the box.
They are bringing in like a big Dutch firm who specializes in like naval exhibitions.
Okay.
We'll give them a shot.
And then you can call them the big ones.
And then you can call the morning toast operations
because we're ready.
We are ready.
I'm packed.
I don't follow Luanne,
but have you seen her speak out about this yet?
Because honestly, I am waiting to hear from her.
I know you're kidding, but like I'm dead serious as well.
Like what does she have to say?
This is literally her legacy.
I completely agree.
I don't believe that she has, but let me just double check.
Like, cause she's so funny and her Instagram is actually like really on point.
Like with what people like want from her.
Countess Luann.
Yeah.
I just need to know, like if anyone else heard this story immediately thought, like, what does Luann think about it?
Okay.
I did.
But you and I are literally the same.
I don't see anything on her stories.
No.
That's too bad.
That is too bad.
But no.
But this is, like, a major shipping blockade.
And so that's, like, what they're up to in the canal.
That's what the shipping crew, the shipping department is up to.
Yeah.
So I think if we have any ships out at sea,
like we might have to call them back
because they're not going to be able to get through.
Mayday, mayday, this is an emergency.
I fucking love that song, by the way.
No, it's so good.
I think we should send you to the Suez Canal.
That's literally what I've been saying.
You could do covers and maybe, maybe, just maybe that ship will start shimmying.
And I could just at least entertain the people on board who have been like literally stuck in the same spot for a few days.
Yeah.
Crazy.
Let's dive into our TV recap segment segment last night was the second episode of the
final season of keeping up with the kardashians and you know what it was kind of boring um there
were a few like little pearls that i thought were were interesting but something i'm
following from last season is we're getting a lot of really unnecessary Chloe interest in like drama and it's
really starting to annoy me I know you are so like sensitive not you are so not here for it I am here
for it and I'm we're getting like a better picture of what's going on between them and the fact that
like you know people's the public's opinion is such a big hindrance for them getting back together
it just makes me feel like I don't want to say anything like let Chloe live let Chloe live yeah no I wasn't even gonna say
anything negative but it's like I don't even want to say anything just let her live no I know I
thought that was really interesting from that whole like storyline what I took away was like
you know Chloe's always been like this like really strong not give a fuck kind of gal but obviously
this type of lifestyle is starting to like wear on her where like she gives so much of a shit about
what people think it's letting her affect her actual personal decisions like that's crazy that's
crazy and also she said something that was just making me think because she was like everyone has
a opinion about my relationship like my body my face and like all this stuff about chloe's face
we never really talk about it because like this is an audio show so it wouldn't even make sense to talk about like photos but like people
go so hard on her like changing face whatever that she looks so crazy but like on the show
she looks stunningly beautiful it's clear that on her social she uses like apps and messes with
her face like whatever it's not you know what I mean I I just people get so
pressed about it it's like really not that big of a deal there's all these like conspiracy theories
about Chloe's face like where's her nose like her nose is right there I saw it on tv last night like
she obviously just gets a little carried away filtering her photos but who like okay that's
not like the cause for you don't have to call an ambulance okay yeah no i um have never been the
type of person to comment on others use of photoshop and facetune because that is the pot
calling the kettle black um i don't really like give a shit you know like some people get so bent
out of shape like what are you clary and like they can't stop posting it on their instagram like
what did chloe do to her face like i truly don truly don't care. Like, um, I just felt bad for Chloe. Like
to get to a point in your life where like your personal private life decisions are being
influenced by what you think the public thinks. Like that is so crazy, especially for someone
as like strong, well-dressed Chloe. Like we know her, like she doesn't give a shit.
Yeah, no, it's, it's's unhealthy that's not how life is supposed
to be lived so right i i do feel for her i hope that she gets to a place where she can get through
this piece of it but i also want to do our part in not contributing to that sort of toxicity
the sub sub subplot of kendall like wanting babies babysitter like legit fast forward like could
not care less i like because obviously it was so sub but when she was like my best friend was
pregnant i was like gg um oh is that what she was talking about yes yes i was trying to think and
then it's gg they're the same age and that's your best friend um yeah but uh watching those kids i
could watch a whole show of those kids playing.
I know.
The kids are so fucking cute.
And they're little skims.
They're so each one's cuter than the next.
Saint.
No, Psalm was being so cute.
I just all of Chicago.
True.
Like Truesdale.
P.
I can't.
So fucking cute.
So I personally was here for the campers.
And if Kendall's fake storyline was what brought us there.
Also, Ace Malika's son. So fucking cute. i personally was here for the campers and if kendall's fake storyline was what brought us there also ace malika's son so so cute so cute um also i thought it was really cool to
see kylie on set of the wop i mean it was fun to see kylie like on kardashians in general since
she's never on um and then the one little nugget we get was her filming the uh wop music video
which i thought was so cool because first of all she looked so stunning like in the video and in the video, and she looked exactly the same, like, sitting in the makeup chair. Like,
it was cool to see the consistency in her look, and to see Cardi on Keeping Up With The Kardashians,
like, that was an iconic pop culture crossover moment, like, that will live in infamy forever.
No, I totally agree, and then, like, both talking about how they gained weight in quarantine,
I was, like, over here, same. And then just talking about their kids, like, you know, they grew up so fast.
Like, Kylie's such a mom, you know?
Yeah, no, it was awesome to see.
The episode had, like, good nuggets like that,
but then also was a lot of filler.
And it's crazy how, even though it's the last season,
and you would think, like,
they're going to give it all to this season.
They've got the house and everything.
Like, they still have to, like, make shit up.
Yeah, there was still, like, boring shit.
But we got a really interesting
like window into kim and kanye and i think how they're gonna go about it is like kim refuses to
even really like speak on it directly because she thinks it's disrespectful to kanye who's
asked that his privacy been be respected and she 100 has respect for that it seems like how they're
gonna tackle it is like having everyone else kind of speak about it from their perspective like about Kim not about Connie just like oh
she's going through a lot oh we should support her you know yes I agree and also I didn't go
and look but like I forget what the tweets were this summer because there's been so many like
tweets over the past few years that I forget like what this specific batch was from this summer that
was like affecting her on last night's episode.
I believe it was like those tweets like he's Jordan Peele from Get Out.
You know, Chris Momager.
Remember, they were the ones like about the family.
Got it.
Yeah, that's really, really difficult.
I think.
I don't know.
The girls night that they had though in Malibu,
like drinking and just like having so much fun.
I genuinely thought like I feel like they had a great night.
It wasn't just for the cameras.
For the cameras.
Me too.
And I'm going to say something really kind of contradictory to everything I've ever said.
But having Courtney not on the show makes me like her so much more.
I'm like she is funny and she's fabulous and she's everything of the sort when she's not
just complaining all the time.
100% in last night's episode I was so happy for her presence.
I was enjoying what she was bringing to the party.
And I was feeling like I was feeling a little turnt in a positive direction towards her.
And so I think like it's better for she's clearly happier.
And it's better for the viewers when we only get her when she wants to be there.
Agreed.
Everyone seems like they're just like in a healthier spot with Kourtney.
And I was really enjoying her presence, which is not something I felt in years.
Yeah. No, I so agree. I loved her pajamas. I loved I loved what she was bringing to the table.
And also when they talked about her relationship, like obviously we're a few months too early.
But like soon Travis Barker. I know I was like dying to like I wish that they would have like even spoken about it.
But when they kept talking about someone like do you regret that?
They're talking about Eunice, right?
Yes, for sure.
Okay, like 100%.
Like one of her worst relationships.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So.
Cool.
Cool.
The episode needed more Kris Jenner, but she's obviously busy.
But if I don't get myself like a Kris Jenner spinoff, I'm going to start a riot.
Yeah.
Also, it ended with like Tristan saying something nice about Chloe in the confessional.
And like it was I was like holding.
I was just like cringing.
It was a little cringing.
It was a little cringing and smiling.
Because he's just not comfortable on the camera yet.
This is I think his like first confessional.
And it's only episode two.
So this is maybe like the first or second time he's actually sitting down.
And he was trying to, like, be, like, protective.
And he just, like, couldn't get the words out.
And I was really struggling.
And I was really hoping you weren't going to bring it up because it was, like, so cringey.
Like, I have to relive it now in my brain.
No, stop.
It was cringey, but it was cute.
And also, like, he is committed to Chloe.
He's committed to being a part of the family.
He's committed to being a part of the show.
Like, he's all in.
And therefore, so am I.
Toot, toot.
My ship is coming in.
We're going to reroute because the Suels Canal is backed up.
And Chloe and Tristan.
Is it a ship or a train?
Because a train goes, toot, toot.
Toot.
No, it's a ship.
Toot, toot.
Okay.
I don't know. They still have a horn.
I guess. It's more like
wah-wah, you know?
Oh, that's true. Like below deck. Yeah.
Yeah, right. Right. Okay, fine.
Wah.
So it was a good episode. Obviously, I'm just waiting
to see if Kim passes the bar, how the
rest of the Wyoming trip
unravels, and all the
stuff about Kanye running for president.
Can't wait to see where that takes us.
But even though it was like a kind of a lame episode,
the girls are together
and who knows when that'll be happening again.
So it was delightful.
Yep, I still enjoyed every minute.
Everyone was looking sickening and beautiful
and stunning and smart, just like us.
