Good morning, millennials. Welcome back to the morning toast. Happy Monday. Let's acknowledge the space that we're in. We do have a full week ahead of us, but you know what, you guys, as long as we're acknowledging the space that we're in, like that's kind of all that matters. Yeah. And it's really all you can do in a situation like this when you do have the whole week ahead of you. So it's not the, it's not the best space to acknowledge. But if we do acknowledge it, we can rise, we can grind, we can hustle and we can make today our bitch because we are, we are rising and grinding. I rose and groaned yeah no we could rise and grind I did kind of rose and groan today I did I woke up earlier than usual like so I had time to like

put on a necklace I was noticing your necklace but then I forgot like my ring so you know it's like can't so you're getting divorced can't win them all of course of course every other day that I forget to put my rings on no my rings are in a different place than like the rest of my jewelry box so why um because I wear them every day and I don't go into my jewelry box that often got it I have got a new tray I don't really wear a lot of jewelry but today I was like this outfit could use a little something something it's kind of bland that's like a me outfit I know well um I just have been dressing like it's spring and it's fully not it's not today and I just am like done looking and feeling stupid and cold I 100 but you know we're in an interesting position where

this studio is literally a hot box it's a blaze but outside it's fucking freezing so I just don't know how to like acknowledge this space thank you yeah but I'm so glad that you and I like got the same memo today I'm like I'm done trying to make spring happen it's not going to happen I'm like always walking around and like a little pink thing, like freezing with like pollen up my nose, just like looking so fucking dumb. Yeah. And I'm like, you know what? Fall vibes.

Fuck it. Fall vibes. Fuck it. That's the name of today's episode. And no, I literally put my winter boots in storage and then took them out. Like I just reverse spring cleaned because it's like not spring. No, my loafers are like of a wool material. No, you are woolly vibes today.

Wooly vibes only. I'm also moussey vibes today. I've come to the conclusion that like in the last month, I've literally put on like 15 pounds. Somebody said to me. I think you look so great. Thank you. I mean, somebody said to me, do you get cheek filler? I'm like, no, no, I literally just gain weight.

But she meant it as a compliment and I didn't take offense to it. Because like I can acknowledge a space that I've been like I have gained weight and it's like how did we get here yeah no my face is just like looking so pizza recently that like that's how I know like big girls in town you know everybody has their tells big like for me it's just like how many times people are gonna guess that I'm pregnant I'm like nope just bad but that's not about your weight that's just like people like can't grow over the fact that me and Ben have been married for four years and like we ain't having a kid like anytime soon but you know what it's hard it's easier for me because i actually am fat like that is a real problem i face not you no no but

like i do um i too by the way i'm just backtracking because i had some things i wanted to share i too rose and grown this morning i was very productive tell about my hair dyson air wrap i'm like i'm just not i'm not there yet but I still use it you know so I feel like I'm getting my money's worth I just I know I'm supposed to use the curling attachment but my hair is far too long for it like it doesn't work and I'm just like really struggling so but I'm working through it did you see that new yes where you put your hair through the hole oh no they make an extension of the curling wrap that's extra long for extra long hair but it's like excuse me i just spent six hundred dollars on this item now i need to spend more money i

refuse send it for free seriously send it for free or at least let me customize my additions i totally agree but no did you see the one where you're supposed to put your hair through the hole i don't think that's true yeah also your hair's not that long so like if it's too long for me that for then who is it for? A hundred percent. I also watched a Real Housewives of Atlanta reunion this morning. Very productive because I wanted to talk about it. That is productive.

And I filmed another TikTok series. You guys, look at that cup. Almost empty. Tell us about it. I feel like this is something we can all get behind. Yes. Okay, so this is from The Macro Barista. A lot of people have been tagging me in his recipes.

Thank you so much. And he just, like, makes recipes for everyone. Like, whether you want something healthy, whether you want something caffeinated. So this is a nitro cold brew with a pump of hazelnut, three pumps of sugar-free vanilla, and vanilla sweet cream cold foam. It is 95 calories. So therefore, it is Jackie approved. And I'm not going to lie.

Like it does taste very good. It tastes a lot like coffee, but it's manageable. Right. And honestly, like the second we started filming, my stomach started to hurt. So like I'm definitely going to make like a big old duty after this, which is really all I wanted. I'm feeling very energized.

Like if that's more possible than usual, I'm feeling more energized. So I really enjoyed this and I encourage you to take a look at my series that is being critically acclaimed like honestly I heard Tribeca Film Festival like was reaching out to your people like hey we want to get the series up at the film festival what do you think I'm I'm just taking it slow because it's been like a lot of like overwhelming response but there's just like you know the critics are quaking uh Nicole Richie's like literally commented that like she can't wait and she hopes I never stop doing the series well that's like that and Gwyneth Paltrow as well I just wanted to put that out there she commented

twice and I'm still waiting for her order yeah because that's going to be another part of the series like trying celebrity Starbucks orders like 100% and when GP gives me the official goop recipe I will try it but she's just not like super communicative today but like that's the thing about this series where i feel like it's become bigger than you and it's like not about finding the right coffee because technically you just found it honestly and honestly there was another one last week that i found as well so like i have found if i ever find myself like needing a coffee i have a few really good recipes that i there's two that one of them got an eight out of ten last week this one got a six out of ten now I'm kind of

regretting it because I'm really it's growing on me like as I sit here but I have found decent recipes but the series is not really about the destination it's more so about the journey yeah and now it's like even when you find the one like you can't stop like everybody's waiting with bated breath like what is she gonna to try next? No, I know. And I also started another series that I keep forgetting to do, but I really need to do it, which is here's what you missed on the morning toast in 60 seconds or less. I think a lot of people really appreciated the brevity

at which I wrapped up the morning toast. And I think it was great press for the toast. And I'm just really working on my TikTok slash Reels game because that's the future of the industry. And I can't be left behind. Yeah, no, you can't be. But I'm... You're volunteering to stay behind no I mean I like watching other people's reels and stuff um it just it's a lot it's a lot it's a lot of work and it's a lot of like the people who

but maybe if you had a company that you were passionate about if you had a coffee order that you were passionate about no but the people who like do sickening reels that I enjoy consuming, like that is their full-time job. And by the way, I have so much respect for it because I've, for the last year, I've been on TikTok like as a hobby, but I've really taken it to like to the next level in the last couple weeks. And it is a full-time commitment. Like it is exhausting. Exhausting. Like I get to bed and I'm exhausted. Yeah. And then you get back on TikTok to see what everyone else did that day. Oh, and by the way, like the time limit is still there. And I literally press ignore limit for today every single day. Okay. I might as well just take it off. It's so bothersome. Yeah.

Because now you're spending more time on TikTok, like pressing ignore. But now it's work. Like I used to just scroll TikTok endlessly, like for pleasure. And I still do that. But I also spend a lot of time on my creative process great well we're so glad that you are working on your art so important it's so important to have passions and this really is yours yes and also um I just wanted to wish you a happy mother's day I'm sure Zach did not wish you a happy mother's day much like Ben didn't wish me anything until he came home at 6 30 with flowers and a gift it was an adult coloring book which was very thoughtful no card but it's okay I just felt like he had

forgotten and then when he was out he was like oh I should get something for my deadbeat dog mom yeah no did you get anything I did not get anything other than brew's love he told me like that but sometimes that's enough you know that's really all I wanted from brew like he was just being so extra special just like loving on mom and I was so happy to receive his love it's a it's a great day when you're receiving love from Bruno it's really so true I think oh my god I didn't even realize first of all Theo is sitting next to you which is so unbelievably disrespectful the day after Mother's Day nonetheless I know well I think like it's Auntie Day it's always Auntie Day here at the toast no but I feel like because I didn't haven't seen him in so long because of the weekend he just

like wanted to re-up with Auntie and then the rest of the week he'll be with you I just say I feel like I literally took an Adderall I'm like wired I'm not really liking this feeling I've never in in the last 10 days I don't really drink the whole thing but like I am fucking lit that's the cold brew for you I feel like I took it I've like taken Adderall a few times in my life like I feel like I just took one and isn't that what you wanted like not really dial it back a little am I talking really fast I mean you're just like your energetic self are my eyes like crazy no they feel like crazy oh my god like drinks coffee once no literally I'm fine finally finishes her coffee I didn't even finish it oh god take it away from her yeah no I'm not gonna drink anymore I'm just feeling like it's a lot you know okay well great you got what you wanted out of it you said you're anxious if things are running

through you yeah and you have energy that's literally things are running through me panic no I'm fine I'm fine um other than that it was a fabulous weekend I finished the book for the redheads we're recording today so make sure to get your questions into the redheads book club at gmail.com um I did a poll because my plan was to do a classic novel for our next book club book but I've just been on this historical journey like as everyone knows and I kind of want to take the redheads on it with me and choose a book that like I would be reading next and like so everyone can see what I've been up to yeah and I can always choose a classic we all could choose a classic there's always time that's why they're classics right they never go out of style so I

that will definitely be in my back pocket but I think for this month I'm gonna take you guys on this journey that I've been on I love that for you thank you for the community thanks I actually think the book that we just read twice in a blue moon by Christina Lauren that's the book of the month you would like yes I'm going to add that to my list I'm currently um I haven't picked up my kindle in a while but I'm like in the middle of this like terrible book Margo told me about but I keep thinking about like I wonder what the end is so I feel like what's the book I don't know the name it's about like this girl who's a writer and she picks up this book and it's actually like you know someone telling her story from

childhood like from her POV interesting yeah sounds like super spooky like magical realism it was spookiness but I was into it very cool by the way I just wanted to let you know the new Sally Hepworth book is out I know and she's your fave she wrote the mother-in way, I just wanted to let you know the new Sally Hepworth book is out. I know. And she's your fave. She wrote The Mother-in-Law. I just have like so many books to read. I know, but you're watching The Bull Type, which is why you haven't picked up your Kindle. You guys, my weekend was so full, but all I remember was last night, like yesterday, for like seven hours, I watched The Bull Type.

First of all, it was so good because it was like major changes. I finished season one, cliffhanger, spoiler alert, Jane gets fired. She leaves her job at Scarlet and she gets fired from incest what's it called insight um and it was just like so good to seeing incest it was so good to like see someone getting exactly what they deserve I told you she's just running around town thinking she's literally who's like a famous journalist Dan rather and she's fucking not like she's not at all and she just has the worst judgment she doesn't listen to her bosses and she thinks like her no she's a literal step up from an intern yeah she just became a writer six weeks ago she thinks she's the editor-in-chief yeah and she

just like uses her judgment and like it's bad judgment so it was just like nice to see someone getting exactly what they needed like a big serving of humble pie and it's also great to see like while she's flailing you know Sutton is thriving like she's killing it as a fashion assistant she's becoming friends with all these influencers and then she like had to put $500 worth of drugs on her corporate card that was crazy and I actually was really enjoying the show for a multitude of reasons but I feel like they I did work um at Hearst for two weeks as an intern before I was asked to leave. And I do have to say, they do really nail, like, the whole magazine culture. And also, like, the PR, like, what?

You would know from your two weeks. That was more than enough. I worked at Esquire magazine in, like, the men's closet. It was torture. I will never forget. I had, like, the the two weeks they were filled with so many stories there was like this head intern who thought like he was the shit and like he kind of was because he had this inspiring story of how he had gotten the internship because he's

been obsessed it was literally like he was Jane he's been reading Esquire since he was 12 back at home and he had applied the the traditional way and hadn't gotten any traction and he like hand delivered his resume in this like you know hand bedazzled envelope and you know everyone was so impressed he got the internship he just tells the story like to everyone and he was a know-it-all but he did know it all like so we did report to the head intern because he was like in charge but he was just one of those people who was like correcting you and he was always right except one time we were like talking about celebrities and I was like Cara Delevingne and he's like it's Cara Delevingne and I'm like actually it's not like that's what I remember and I was like

he was such an out all and then that's why I left but I did really get a good grasp of the corporate magazine culture and like the building Hearst was an iconic place to be for two weeks and I think they really nail it and they also like kind of nail like the whole nightlife except like the fact that they live in Greenpoint and they just like miraculously get to Midtown in five minutes every episode that's the biggest plot hole yeah that's always what doesn't make sense in these shows but for the for the sake of it like I don't want to watch their commute so it's fine 100% 100% um I'm so glad that you're enjoying it I'm loving it I'm just I'm so glad I you're enjoying it. I'm loving it. I'm just, I'm so glad.

I'm happy for you that you have that. You know what I watched on Friday night? Finally, the Downton movie. Finally. How was it? It was, it was cute that like. It was. That's not good.

It was cute that like the gang was there. Like the house was there. The king and queen came to stay at Downton. But it was like a little stupid. But it was, I don't think it was meant to be like groundbreaking stuff. No, it's just like nice to get the gang back together. Yeah, it was nice to get the gang back together. But like there was like this whole like storyline of like,

so I guess when the king and queen like come to stay at a house, they bring all their own servants, cooks, butlers, etc. And then the house runs like their house at home. I do the same thing when I visit other people's homes. But when they came to Downton, like the show is about the Downton staff. runs like their house at home i do the same thing when i visit other people's homes but when um when they came to downton like the show was about the downton staff so the downton staff were like so upset that they were usurped by the royal house oh yeah so and they like all like banded together to like you know lock them in their rooms or like send them to london that sounds so stupid oh my

god that sounds like the plot of an actual dis Channel original movie it was so stupid they like all met in the wine cellar they locked the chefs in their room that's so stupid so that they finally like so that they could serve the king and queen but that's not protocol no it's not protocol but it was just like a little silliness but it was really good it was good um well I'm happy for you I was um just like gallivanting around the tri-state area this weekend and I ended up having a lovely time I had a bachelorette party on Friday night in the Hamptons for my friend Nikki Mazeltov and it was very nice you know very relaxing how were you feeling after Friday show oh my god okay so the IV like did really bring me back to life and I really want to thank Marisol from IV drips for being like a real homie

like she didn't have to you know put herself out there and she did and I really appreciated it and Ivy Drips was great I felt I still felt like shit but I was able to survive a three-hour car ride to the Hamptons with Brian yeah not only did I survive it like I had the best time it was literally like the best car ride ever we got McDonald's we watched the big shot Bethany's they released two more and me and Brian were just like living for it. And we put it on on his phone. And we basically like listened to it as a podcast. I was watching.

Brian was driving. But it was so good. We were just like, we were dying. It's literally the dumbest show, but it's so good. And then I went to the bachelorette party. And then Saturday I headed back to Long Island. I had a birthday party. So I was just like kind of being like a Long Island socialite this weekend,

which is kind of why I'm tired. You were being a princess of Long Island I had a birthday party so I was just like kind of being like a Long Island socialite this weekend which is kind of why I'm tired you were being a princess of Long Island yes yes I was okay well part of the weekend was watching SNL so we need to get into I have so much to say without further ado to do to do we need to get into the fast five stories that you need to know before you wake up and take a bite out of your morning toast and it should come as a surprise to absolutely no one that today's episode is brought to you by the bruce the best electric toothbrush on the market works so well looks stunning and is very affordable compared to most electric toothbrushes which can cost over 200 which is insane um if you just want to like have a like a fresh start like make a big change in your life start with your toothbrush the bruce has six unique modes to customize your brushing experience the battery life lasts four weeks it comes with a magnetic charging stand and a compact travel case

Okay, I'm already laughing because we need to talk about SNL Elon Musk hosted Saturday night live on Saturday night it was live he confirmed and it was so fucking good okay I have so many thoughts because I didn't watch because I was at a birthday party but Sunday morning was like exactly what I wanted to do first thing in the morning before I even brushed my teeth no Saturday night I literally took a nap at seven o'clock so that i could make it to snl i thought it went on at like 11 15 so i turned on my tv at 11 and i literally watched 30 minutes

of news just waiting for elon i learned so many things by the way no it's local news or yeah it was local news like first of all like i learned that this week and last week like the temperatures are lower than what they usually are so that's also why I put on a sweater today. I was like, the weatherman said. The local news can make the happiest person, like, want to jump off a bridge. Oh. It is so depressing. I actually cannot watch it. No, I know, but.

There's so much crime. So much crime. So much tragedy. Gun violence up in the city 166% from last year. Terrible. Terrible. I can't watch the local news. But I went on my phone. I was like wanting to see what people were saying before I turned it on. And literally like people,

and it was like news articles. I don't know if it was really like the regular voices. It wasn't the people's voices. It was like the media like saying bombs, Doge's tanking, you know, Elon Musk is so awkward, painful to watch. And I'm i'm like oh no and i was expecting like a full-on train wreck and i was so confused after watching it because i was like this was so good like it was the sketches were top tier elon was great elon was great let's take it from the top because his monologue first just i literally was watching the monologue like this. Like I was laughing, smiling so hard. We really don't know him. I didn't know what his personality was like at all.

And I just felt like he was so himself. Like he was a little awkward. Yeah. Well, he said he has Asperger's. So he has, he's a little socially awkward. So he was just like totally himself. Made jokes about like all the things that people say about him make jokes about the son's name still didn't tell us how it's pronounced no cat running

across the keyboard cat running across keyboard like his mom was so quotable yeah well the thing is is like I think why a lot of people were like this is awkward is because he is an awkward guy and he he just is like but I don't know I think the fact that he was like so confident in his awkwardness like made it so funny and like endearing even the sketch with his mom where May like literally botched her lines so hard it was just so sweet. May like the month but with an e thank you Elon for spelling my name. No it was written so well I don't know who wrote his monologue but it was excellent and he looked I have to say like I was just not expecting to, like, find Elon Musk so hot. Like, my Stanhood is through the roof. I'm like Doge going to the moon, except not.

No, 100%. Of course, am I disappointed the Doge is down? Yes, but you have to understand, I got in at four cents. It's still at 50 cents. I'm still in the red. I mean, in the green. And this is just the beginning. Elon announced yesterday that he is literally sending a rocket to the moon that is paid

for entirely by Doge. It's the first crypto in space. And he's calling it Doge. And he's literally sending a rocket to the moon that is paid for entirely by Doge. It's the first crypto in space and he's calling it Doge. And he's literally sending Doge to the moon. Literally. He's sending Doge to the moon. And yes, I had, I wanted to talk about that, but also right before, right as he was like, as SNL was starting, Doge hit 0.71. That's what I sent you. And I think because it got so high, people started selling. Inevitably. Because they were like, this is the high it's going to be all night. And then it totally tanked. I'm okay.

Like, I think it didn't totally tank. Sorry. It started at two cents. No, but if you look at the charts, boom. No, I think it's a long-term thing. You can't just like get in to get out. And I'm really here for the long haul. That's what I'm trying to tell you.

I have more thoughts. Of course. Because there was so much controversy, like so stupid around it. Where like Bowen Yang and Aidy Bryant were speaking out. Bowen Yang did participate in many sketches with Elon Musk. And I think like, what Bowen Yang had posted was like, when Elon announced that he was going to be on SNL,

he tweeted out, let's see how live Saturday Night Live really is. And Bowen Yang was like, what the fuck is this? Now that I know Elon, and he's obviously just like this like quirky guy i could see him thinking that like that's a hilarious joke and he's like literally going to be a comedian like i could see the whole thing so i i was happy to

see because i love bowen yang i think he's literally the future him and chloe are like literally the future of snl so i was really happy to see him participate Aidy Bryant was very notable noticeably absent from every sketch except for the Mother's Day one in the beginning which was far too long and Miley Cyrus like did not sound good I was so worried in the beginning that Elon wasn't going to do a monologue because Miley opened the show like Miley just inserting herself and she should just join the cast no literally it's so weird that she's on every four weeks yeah no and a lot if you're a Miley stan like you are not gonna like what I have to say but I've really I've tried to be open-minded when it comes to Miley Cyrus's music career I've been very hard on her but I did think

that most recently she did kind of find her niche like with the plastic hearts and that um Dua Lipa collab like she had a banger after banger and the midnight run amazing song I really thought like she found her Joan Jett vibe and I was so disappointed because first of all she didn't have any music to promote so I didn't really understand why she was on SNL then she literally stole that guy's song and like yeah he was there but I just can't stress how weird it is to go on Saturday night live and sing another person's song like a a contemporary song. And she is featured on like the Virgin. They did it too. So here's, this is the exact comparison. Lizzo wrote a song, Feeling Good As Hell.

Killed it. Broke every chart. This guy, I don't even know his name, wrote a song that went viral on TikTok. It became a huge song. Yeah, it can't turn a wife into a hoe. Love that song. It's called Without You. I looked him up last night, so I should have. It's called La Kid LeRoy or something. La Kid LeRoy. La Kid

LeRoy. So Ariana Grande and. La Kid LeRoy. Ariana Grande and Lizzo after Good as Hell like was out for a few years, re-released it like together and Ariana had like a small verse on it. That would be like Ariana Grande going on Saturday Night Live and singing Good as Hell and bringing Lizzo. Like that would have been weird. Yeah. So I just think it's so bizarre that miley literally did a cover and then her second song was a song that is like so old someone else's song that's a cover but the first sorry the mother's day song was oh i wasn't talking the mother's day song was a sketch a sketch and she sounded really bad i'm sorry um the first song was not hers that kid should have gotten on snL on his own by his own merit.

Like that song blew up. That's what SNL is for. Yes. Whatever. She sang a cover. And then the second song is like six months old. Like that's not what SNL is for. What was the other song?

Plastic Hearts. Oh, okay. I didn't watch her second performance. And she did not sound good. The mullet. I have to say, the thing about Miley is like what I've always said is, even though I don't agree with a lot of her artistic choices, she always comes out and sounds amazing. That's, like, her biggest flex is that she's multi-genre.

She kills it vocally. She did not sound good. She sounded like she had laryngitis. Yeah, so I feel like every time Miley comes out, it's like, oh, wow, this girl can really sing. I feel like people- It's a reminder. It's a reminder for, obviously, her fans know that, but it's a reminder for, like, everyone

old and young. Like, wow, Miley Cyrus, she's not just Hannah Montana like she's truly talented she respects like older music yeah and you always just like have a new respect for her after watching her perform live I agree she sounded different apparently she had vocal surgery and now her voice is a little changed oh that's what I read in Toast After Dark oh yeah that's interesting um and then she was like in the sketch of and that's a fun thing to have like performers in sketches, but like when Miley performs every month, she like just joined the cast.

No, I completely agree. And like why wasn't Grimes the performer? I was so glad to see Grimes as Princess Peach. Me too. And then to see her when they were. Wrapping. Wrapping. Yeah.

So that was like a fun sweet treat. But back to the main event. Yeah. Let's go sketch by sketch. The best sketch was Gen Z Hospital. She's literally dead. She's literally dead. It was sus for a while.

And now she's dead. No cap. No cap. Elon was great. I feel like Elon really understands like internet culture. And I just know Bowen Yang wrote that sketch. Like I just know it. So it felt like a meeting of the minds.

And that's why I was like so upset when Bowen Yang was one of the people who had spoken out because I actually think him him and Elon could be like a great creative force yes I totally agree and that sketch was the culmination of so many things and it was hysterical it was hysterical but just like every time like Elon joined the sketch I was like it's amazing no every time Elon was on I was just like quaking like I literally I just couldn't believe it when he showed up in um chloe fineman's the uli show which was literal she was incredible like she does such good impressions but she's so committed to uli is that has she done uli before i don't know is it like it should be a recurring show it should be because she was so good and francis mcdormand like it was hysterical but

when they cut to the producer being elon I dead ass did not know that was him. I thought it was someone else. Really? He looked so different. Yeah. He was just like, I feel like he's just such like a perfectionist. Like, he committed to every role. And you have to remember, the people who usually go on SNL are actors.

So, like, they're acting in a skit or a sketch. But Elon's not. So, I thought he did so good considering he's not an actor. He's just a genius. No, and the premise of the whole Wario, Mario, Luigi courtroom was so funny. But I did not like... This is like SNL's thing. They have really good concepts for skits.

And they never know how to end that. They can't land the plane. So when it became into a Cuomo thing, I was like, this is not funny. You want to talk about Governor Cuomo and that's what you're gonna say yeah no and it's like we're tying in a courtroom no the courtroom was actually like a funny idea for a sketch yeah and Grimes's appearance was just I didn't know at first that that was her I thought it was um Chloe Feynman but then when they were saying their goodbyes I saw her on the station I was like Princess Peach I didn't uh before I watched it I saw on twitter people were like sharing the

picture like grimes on so i knew that it was her but i probably wouldn't have noticed her if i didn't know that yeah totally so i just loved absolutely every minute of it and i don't know if that's an unpopular opinion because so many people were like dragging him on twitter but i thought he did amazing i wanted to know like i'm so proud of him clearly an unpopular opinion like if you read the news i literally just like googled his name for a story. And like the first article that came up was like cringy SNL. Like it wasn't. I just want to say, I thought it was so good.

Like literally the best episode I've seen in so long. And I'm sure like they had a lot of viewers. I'm sure they did too. And they just like really leaned into so many different sides of Elon. Like when he came on Weekend Update, like pretty much as himself, right? No, but he was Leron again. Oh, he he was I think he was like an accountant named Leron but then my audio on my tv stopped syncing with the mouse so I had to turn it off whatever he was just like being so funny he

was like like so nerdy talking about all the things he loved like explaining explaining what cryptocurrencies are it was just like so fun to see him like just like being himself no and then the last sketch the wild west yeah where he was just like reinventing the wheel the leron of the wild west of the wild west yeah no and also when he played himself in the mars sketch where chad goes to mars hysterical sketch hysterical and you know in the ones that were like pre-recorded not the live ones he actually did amazing like i re-watched the chad sketch this morning and i like, he could be a real actor, because it's not live, and obviously, like,

you have to memorize your lines and stuff. I thought he did so good. And that other pre-recorded sketch where... The quarantine party. The quarantine party. The post-quarantine party. Where he was talking to Heidi Gardner. Like, it was just hysterical.

Yeah. And I just, I feel like it was really kind of blown out of proportion, like, by the media. Like, everyone at SNL is walking. Like, they don't want to be with Elon. Because I feel like everyone, literally everyone except for Aidy Bryant participated. And they all went out to dinner a few nights before. And I just feel like they actually like got along.

Yeah. No, I think that everyone like went into it with like maybe these ideas about him. But I think it seems like he won them all over. And it was a pleasure and a joy to watch. It felt like one of those moments when I turned it on. I was like, I feel like so many people are like- Historical. Tuning in for this, you know?

Just like the Meghan and Harry interview. Like just like a cultural moment. It's not every day you see like one of the smartest people of all time like hosting a comedy show. No, and he was in New York all week driving his new Tesla car. Everyone kept like on Twitter taking pictures and sharing them because he was spotted around the city.'s like literally I don't even know how to describe

it it's a spaceship no and I got an Uber on Friday night that was a Tesla by the way that happened to me recently too I bet it was the same car and it was so incredible I know we need to get a Tesla we need to get a Tesla where do we get one it's like a self-driving horse which is just a horse that was funny it was a honestly 10 out of 10 like i just loved it it was so good and i can't tell if people are like gonna make fun of us for loving it but i don't care i loved it and i feel like there's so much bad like publicity around it and someone sent this to elon like it was great elon you did amazing grinds you did great your mom was great you were hysterical i fell in love with you let's get married go elon go elon it's your

birthday go elon it was great seriously it was fucking great that's our review our review 10 out of fucking 10 that's nobody else's review and i'm just not in the mood for the slander it's like popular to hate on elon musk like sorry he's changing the world like and you're upset about it because he's rich leave him alone leave elon alone seriously stop it um speaking of snl next week olivia rodrigo i know performing and um keegan peel uh keegan michael key yes i'm definitely watching that even though we're we're gonna be in nashville okay i'll watch in the morning on the plane oh yeah programming update we are taking a trip this weekend but we will be in studio monday tuesday wed Wednesday. Thursday is audio only.

Friday we're going to be hungover. We're starting summer Fridays a little early. Yeah a little early. Even though it's like we just talked about for 20 minutes how it's not spring. And how we already have a full weekend. All in all the takeaway of this episode. Leave Ilan alone. SNL was a 10 out of 10.

And if you find yourself not believing that. Re-evaluate. yourself totally agree um and doge is literally going to the moon oh let's check where it's at actually so it had gotten to 0.71 and now it was like down to like four or five i thought because there was so much doge like fanfare on the show that it was gonna go up but i guess i clearly thought wrong what's it at 0.5 okay just play play the game don't keep checking no i'm fine i think also this news of joe's literally going to the moon should make it go up did you see that ethereum's at 4 000 i don't fuck with ethereum but like if you're in the crypto game that's just good to know that your cousin ethereum got to 4 000 yeah that's just good to know that your cousin Ethereum got to 4,000.

Yeah, that's true. Now all sinking ships rise tides. Rising tides raise all ships. Are you ready for our next? But sinking ships do tide rise. That is true. Not always, but generally speaking. But don't forget that. Are you ready for our next story?

Someone call Brielle Bierman because Juliana Rancic is leaving E's Red Carpet. We are literally soothsayers. Soothsayers. We spoke about this on Friday, how you were literally gonna have to take Juliana Rancic's job from her cold, dead fingertips. And she wanted to prove me wrong because literally five minutes later, she announced on Instagram. She's leaving E's Red Carpet coverage after 20 years.

The Live From the Red Carpet staple announced over the weekend that she's thrilled to start a new adventure, developing stories with E's parent company, NBCUniversal. She said, After 20 years hosting E's Red Carpet, I have decided to step out of my red carpet heels into a new pair of shoes.

One of my passions is great storytelling, and I am thrilled to announce a new development deal with E's parent company, NBCUniversal, where I'll be producing and bringing stories to life. This announcement is very like Duke and Duchess of Sussex bringing stories to life this announcement is very like Duke and Duchess of Sussex um bringing stories to life yeah and like so I guess she left E! News like 10 years ago and everyone thought that was like the end of her on E! but then she was still doing red carpet and then E! News got canceled so it didn't even matter so it felt like she never

left but this is like the official last job she has at E! correct yes I believe so I mean I wouldn't be surprised if once again we're wrong and she shows up. She's on Daily Pop yeah. But no I do feel as though we generally see her on the red carpet and this is no more red carpet. I'm like really okay with that like I can't stress enough how I really feel like I appreciate her work but it is her time it's Ryan Seacrest's time and like let's just give the mic to Tanya rad like it's literally tanya rad every girl wanted to be the next juliana rancic and tanya rad actually is the next juliana rancic i totally agree also since juliana's like doing a new series in development with mbc like that sounds like a step up from being like the host of the red carpet so everybody's just moving on moving along jason

kennedy and tanya rad are like the future of! And it's about time they start acting like it. I don't know, but his show like didn't cut it. It was the dumbest idea. It didn't cut it. What was it called? The Big Room? In the Room. In the Room, yeah.

No one cares. Yeah, no, but E! is doing okay. Like Justin Sylvester, Morgan. Oh, in terms of like the daytime. Oh, yes. In terms of like what they do best, which is like. Pop culture recap news. Commentary, red carpets, yes. In terms of like what they do best, which is like pop culture recap news. Commentary, red carpets, etc.

The Morgan Stewart, the Justin Sylvester, the Lady Sitter, the Hunter, Nina, even though Carissa announced last week that she's leaving. Which is a real shock because she, it was, is the backbone of Daily Pop. She's like the host. And then like Morgan and Justin. The captain of the ship. Yeah, they get to like, you know, do squeegee on the boat sides. I wonder why.

I know. I found that to be really surprising. I mean, she just had a baby. Maybe she just wants to focus on her family. But I don't know. I don't know. Maybe she got a different job somewhere else. But I found that to be really surprising too.

So it does seem like there's change-ups happening over at E. There's always things moving at E because everything gets canceled after a month. I know. That must be like a tough place to work when it's like every other week things are changing so much. Yeah. But that's the latest. And greatest.

And that's what you missed on E. Very good. I like that. Thanks, Claudia. Before you move on, can I just let everyone know about IPVanish, today's sponsor? Please do. IPVanish is a virtual private network, a VPN for short. A VPN is a super important tool that helps you safely browse the internet.

online love it okay ready for our next story yes little mix is about to become lethal mix yes perry edwards is pregnant announcing her pregnancy a week after her bandmate leanne so we've got two out of three little mix members pregnant such Such a beautiful time for Lethal Mix. So many changes in the Little Mix family. Jessie Nelson has departed. And it's seeming to be pretty permanent based on like interviews she's doing. She did like a kind of a big like interview. Basically saying like her breaking point was on this music video set.

Where she just like literally did not feel like herself. And she felt so insecure. And she didn't really say anything bad about the girls. I feel like they're on decent terms. But I just think like she left the environment for her mental health yeah I understand and now two of them are pregnant there's just like so many changes but I feel good about it I don't think that Little Mix is breaking up like I feel strong because if you follow Little Mix like they're still putting out fire content songs videos they just put out an album like with the three girls like they're not stopping and Jessie's departure like has not slowed them down whatsoever and now like the fact that two of them

are pregnant at the same time so like it feels as though they'll all maybe want the same things and like it will go faster here and slower here like it's it seems really nice and actually probably is really nice to be in a girl group and be pregnant at the same time as another girl so you don't feel like you're like you're being like left behind or something 100% and also Perry and Leanne are both with soccer stars love so it's just like so cute it's kind of like an ideal situation like I'm happy Jessie I miss her but I'm glad she's taking care of herself and I think that like that's kind of like better no like I think everybody is where they want to be and doing what they want to be doing and that's all you can ask out of your favorite girl group a hundred percent and I just feel good

about it like I don't want to jinx it I saw my literal my Instagram this morning like when I opened it it was my first picture was Perry's belly yeah me too and I was just so excited especially knowing that Leanne announced last week I'm sure they like coordinated their announcements they would each have their time but like they'll be in this together yeah and I'm just like happy for Perry you know because she's been on a journey with the Zayn of it all shout out to my ex you're really quite the man you made my heart break and it made me who I am um I just feel like it's been a long journey a very difficult journey I actually saw her in concert and she started breaking down crying like right after she broke up with Zayn well Zayn broke up with her and you know it's

hard Zayn like bounced to Gigi who's like the most perfect girl in the world and like they had a baby together and like everyone like dies for them so it's a tough spot to be the other girl you know, it's hard. Zayn, like, bounced Gigi, who's, like, the most perfect girl in the world, and, like, they had a baby together, and, like, everyone, like, dies for them. So it's a tough spot to be the other girl, you know, in another country. But she bounced back even better. She's giving me Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner vibes. Like, 100%. They should all hang out. Especially because Sophie is British. Yeah. Yeah. I just feel like it's very complicated. Like, I feel like Joe and Sophie don't want any, like, want any, they'll hang with Taylor Swift. They'll laugh about this and that, but they don't want to touch the Gigi and Zayn web.

Yeah. Well, it's tangled for them too. Yeah. No, I just feel like that's the ex that's the real one. You know? Yeah. Everyone's connected. That's the thing.

I could literally connect to random people via hook like hookups you know because like this generation like well they're not young Hollywood anymore they're like all having babies now but like they've literally all hooked up with each other yeah it's just like so incestual I know but like that's what they should be doing yeah no it's fabulous but like you know what picture lives in my mind rent free sure the picture in London of Calvin Harris Taylor Swift carly closs i think she's being like a fifth wheel because i don't think josh kushner is that his name yeah he's there and then gg and joe jonas like the five of them like that's just like was that when they're on the boat yeah um like they were on the canal yeah yeah like a milan by venice maybe london

actually whatever the five of them on a boat like it that is just a picture that like I can't believe exists first of all because Taylor in a boat with her ex Joe Jonas and now after like reliving fearless it's like so real in my mind and the fact that Gigi and Joe Jonas were at a like ever together like it's just like it's crazy and then like the Carla Claus like this is like so much it's crazy and the Calvin Harris like it's just like it's crazy and then like the carly claus like it's just like so much it's crazy and the calvin harris like it's just a lot yeah it's a lot well i hope that your brain like has space for the next story if there's a lot if that's what's living there no it's living there like so rent-free it's crazy they need to start paying you i saw a hysterical meme i know what adam the creator yes this lives in my mind rent-free and it's a picture of a brain

i literally when you said this lives in my mind free that's what i was thinking i was cracking up such good smart content totally are you ready for our next story little horse drama oh no yeah kentucky derby winner medina spirit fails the post-race drug test trainer bob baffert calls it a gut punch because we reported last week medina spirit won the derby the fuck and that the trainer now had won the most derbies yet but medina spirit the horse that won the 2021 kentucky derby last weekend at churchill downs has failed a post-race drug test the horse did the horse did i didn't even know you could drug a horse and it he had um a high level of an anti-inflammatory drug

and that's what he tested positive for no um betamethasone okay anti-inflammatory is like advil so like but it's also a steroid this drug like but i'm sure i that's where the confusion lies this is what the trainer said he said yesterday i got the biggest gut punch in racing for something that i didn't do he said he said that the drug test was an injustice to the horse on sunday churchill down suspended the trainer from entering horses on the track so his like career is over a second positive test called a split sample is required before a horse can be disqualified as the kentucky horse racing commission regulations state so they have another test that they need to go through if the findings

remain true medina spirit will be disqualified and mandolin the runner-up will be declared the winner churchill down said in a statement good day to be mandolin the trainer said this shouldn't have happened there's a problem somewhere it didn't come from us I don't know I'm not really believing like do the tests lie like I don't know tests don't lie I'm glad that they have protocol in place like there's gonna be another test I didn't know what that first of all you could like drug horses and that like they were all required to take a test well you could I guess like juice them up that, like, they were all required to take a test. Well, you could, I guess, like, juice them up.

Yeah, I guess. But, like, a horse is so big, like, how many roids do they have to take? Think about it. A lot. That's so sad. The victory is in jeopardy and everyone is at the edge of their seats. I'm quaking, honestly. Imagine, like, you won the, like, you.

Your family. No, you put bet on a horse and you won it and then like you went what does it do with the bets i don't know they keep their money i think that makes sense that would be what are you gonna collect from people they've already taken their money they've already taken their money and spent it well it depends maybe they're saving but still maybe that's good that adds a layer of confusion that just stresses me out but then if you had bet on mercurial whatever mandolin um then you would feel entitled yeah that's tough maybe they have to pay out everyone

drama drama that's why we need self-driving horses which are just horses i need a tesla like that's the moral of the story claudia i need a tesla you know you can't lease that you have to pay for the whole thing no i think it's a good investment. I think. Are there charging stations in the city? I feel like most parking garages probably have that. Yeah, I think you just need an outlet. No, I don't think so. I think you just need an outlet.

No, you need like a whole station. No, you just need a little wireless charger. I just like love the idea. You need a Mophie. LOL. He should make that. I'm sure he's working on it he's working he's working so hard i did you see a few weeks ago when kylie went in that tunnel yes the boring me and ben spoke

about it on the toast okay when you weren't here sickening claustrophobic i would literally rather die no but like knowing you're in elon's tunnel like i would just trust the tunnel no no i i would be so scared there's literally no hundreds of miles behind you i know and hundreds of miles in front of you okay what if your car breaks down elon would never do that to you but i yeah i totally agree horrible horrible is there a convenience store inside no there's nothing what if you need gas what if you get hungry what if your car breaks down what if someone in the car has a heart attack can i tell you something crazier that i just thought of like no you're in the tunnel the car is built to like fit in the tunnel on the tracks like so say you get stuck can you even open the door or do you hit the wall stop i think there's probably room to i don't know you gotta open the trunk the trunk sunroof

no but is it like no it's so not right i'm not not okay with it. Kylie's so brave. And Kris. Yeah. I had a dream. This is so pathetic. I had a dream Kris Jenner came to one of my comedy shows. And I was like so excited. Stop.

She posted it on Instagram. Like it was the funniest thing I ever saw. Like that would never happen. These days dreams are called manifests. So instead of saying like, oh, I hope this happens today, I'm manifesting it. And then it'll happen apparently. Yeah. And I was like trying to figure out how she got invited manifest it okay are you ready for our fifth

and final story that's not so much news is just like something I think people should know yes I think they should know too because I read this story and I was like oh I didn't know this and I was actually like wondering if this was I've been thinking about it it's a little tax news you need to know since like no one will tell you how to do your taxes right no like you just have to guess exactly how to do it but the money that you donated to go fund me probably isn't tax deductible there has been no shortage of need during the pandemic and to help meet it friends neighbors and customers have set up hundreds of thousands of crowdfunding campaigns go fund me estimates that america that an american has started a covid related fundraiser on its site every two minutes since March 2020.

Wow. But donors shouldn't assume that their contributions are tax deductible and fundraising organizers should not assume the money they have raised won't be taxable. Giving money to an online fundraiser to help those in need or to fund a creator's project on platforms like Kickstarter

is not going to be tax deductible unless the money raised is going to an IRS-design designated charitable organization known as a 501c3 right so unless the GoFundMe organizer was a 501c3 which if you're donating to individuals it's most likely not no if you're donating to GoFundMe that's the point of GoFundMe it's for regular people not people who have tax deductible 501c3 companies yeah so if you were planning on counting that as tax deductible, probably don't. GoFundMe needs to fix that. GoFundMe needs to fix that.

People would be more inclined to donate more. People love tax deductions. It's a great incentive to do charity. This is a disgrace. It truly is. No, the government and GoFundMe need to sync up and figure this out. The platform, like over the last couple of years, has blown up and this is a problem.

And the idea that all of the contributions in total are then taxed. Right, like a family is, right. People are collecting for their medical bills. It's a gift. They raise $50,000, and then they literally are left with $25,000 because of taxes. Then what's the point? Then you need to raise $100,000 to get what you actually need. No, this is wrong, and I'm glad that we're calling it out.

Me too. I think more people should be talking about this. Because on the one hand, I just want you guys to know, like, don't write off your tax as a tax deduction. More people donated to GoFundMes this year than ever before I know that I did. Yeah. And I was curious. And I even Googled, like, is GoFundMe tax deductible? And I learned something to this effect.

But I was still a little unsure. And then I saw this article today. I'm like, I think more people should know that. And also, let's talk about this. Yeah. Oh my God, my middle finger nerve. Let's talk about this. My middle finger nerve issue is not getting better.

Did you get a sleeve or splint? I didn't, but you know what? I might try it your way soon because of the- Just get the splint and literally walk around the house with it. A splint will change it overnight. I hate when people have the solution in front of them and they don't fucking take it. Physical therapist, now it's hurting in the knuckle. Tell me what to do.

Take the splint, it'll change your life. Fine. Fine. And if I'm wrong, I will wear a splint on all ten of my fingers for an entire show, okay? I think the punishment should be of my choosing. Fine, okay. But I like my idea.

Okay, fine. Okay. Should we dive into Real Housewives of Atlanta? Yes yes and speaking of real houses of atlanta someone's hand looked like they were wearing a splint on every single finger whose was that oh i don't know the outfits you have to get into it let's get into it before we get into it we're gonna annihilate some outfits brought to you by blueprint test prep thank you blueprint this needs to be said you're never quite sure if the way you're studying is going to drive results.

Okay, let's get into Real Housewives of Atlanta. The outfits first. I love that there was a theme. And I think a lot of times there is a theme. It's like very vague, all white. But no, this was like dominatrix, dungeon. It was disgraceful. I actually think, even though it pains me because I really,

especially after last night's reunion I can't stand her. Kenny looked amazing. Kenny looked the best. Her skin like she was literally gorgeous. I loved her bun. Her bun was elegant. Her dress was stunning. It was just it was a look. Yeah. And I don't know if it was good because everyone else looked terrible or it was just like good on its own. Yeah I think it was good on its own but then it was also like sinking tides like raise one shit. Yeah. So the episode was frustrating because I'm very much on team Portia when it comes to the Bolo thing it's not it's it reminds me of Denise and Brandy it's not about whether or not Denise and Brandy hooked up it's not about whether or not Bolo and Portia hooked up it's the fact that

it's nobody's business it's else just to play Kenya's advocate for a second um the difference is if Denise and Brandy hooked up in the house when they were you know in Santa Barbara yeah and Kenya was like hanging on to that but the thing is like the women had an agreement before that they took their mics they sent producers home they covered all the cameras obviously they didn't do a good job but they had a mutual understanding amongst everyone that this was off camera. And Portia brought it up. Kenya brought it up repeatedly the next couple days. Yeah. And I have a lot of respect for Kandi.

Because Kandi knows exactly what happened. And she's not being a gossip girl about it. Even though she very well could. Because it's very clear that she's holding on to what happened between her and Portia four years ago. Which I understand because it was insane. But I don't know if she's holding onto it as much as like, this just reminds her so much of it. So she's viewing it through that lens.

Whereas it's not like every decision she made for the last four years was like, because of that. Do you know what I mean? No, I don't think so either. But it's obviously like she has trauma from it. Cause it was like a heinous accusation. That's not something you just forget. Yeah.

But at the end of the day, I was just like, I could not get on board with Kenya. She's just like so one, like she doesn't listen to what anyone's saying. She's just like there to get her point across. And she's wrong. Like she's fully wrong. Yeah. I just think in general, like I understand her point of like it's a show and that's what

we do and we're at work. And I, yes, technically that's right. I just like hate when people use that as an argument because it's like, but you're still a human being. And even Andy like didn't get on board with that and Andy's the executive producer of the show I feel like yeah I guess it does kind of remind me of Denise and um Randy because it was like Rinna like let's talk about it right it's like we don't need to talk about it you know and kind of the whole theme of the episode was like it's a personal matter it shouldn't be on tv and that's

like with the prophet like Drew one I mean Toya is so wrong she's so wrong and she's so annoying and she's making Toya like extremely likable yes I know even though Toya has been acting like insane the whole season I agree like Drew is such a fucking drama queen and this is the biggest like storyline chasing moment ever like nobody cares this is nothing and so then it turns out okay he's a false prophet so literally you should be thanking toya because then that false prophet would have blessed your baby yeah it was so stupid it was so silly and like the just the whole thing i thought it's like this is where we're at the recording like she just did everything she just

woke up and is like i'm gonna make the audience like toya the recording was so embarrassing like there was nothing there no nothing not a single morsel of proof so i just i thought it was just so silly yeah and you're right it did make toya end up being more likable and i just need an explanation on why shamia was there like she didn't say one word no idea and i guess she's a friend of but so is marlo technically and so is toya and they are not on the same level right they had such bigger roles both of them should have and could have been housewives like in terms of their actual airtime do you think Toya will be a housewife next year it's possible I I would I would like her to

yeah I liked Drew up until this profit thing so I'm like a little disappointed in her and I just put together that Drew is in White Chicks I sent you that picture yeah she plays um one of the chicks is girlfriends friend yeah so they show up at that party in the hamptons um that was iconic but also interesting to know she used to be friends with lebron james or she is friends with lebron james she said he used to no she said she's been friends since it sounded confusing the way she worded it because she meant i think she meant to say they've been friends since before he was in the nba i think or they stopped being friends once he became I think like they were friends before he was in the NBA and then like people go and do their own thing yeah um so I

was like annoyed because I did really like Drew for most of the season and I thought she was right in the whole Toya thing Toya was being mean to her about the wig like I really was on her side but she totally lost me like the dumbest I can't believe we're like hinging the final part of the reunion on this dumb fucking conversation yeah oh and then when she asked everyone to pray and Kenya was literally like this is blasphemous she was right I agree it was blasphemous that was so like fake it was so silly so silly and by the way I'm actually really shocked like Tanya is gone yeah she wasn't like it's so obvious like Tanya porsche and bolo they did it like nobody i don't even care but porsche had nothing to lose she's a single girl she's a consenting

adult as andy said like she can do whatever she wants tanya was not that free so i just can't believe like actually right but like tanya is the denise in the situation yes and just like denise like she's bouncing but i really found Tanya to be so annoying so many when she first came on the scene like when they were in Tokyo with Nini like I just I did not like Tanya and she has grown on me so much I think she's such a nice girl and I'm really sad that like I think this is the end of the road for Tanya on Housewives oh you're sad about it yeah I ended up really liking her she She really grew on me. Yeah. I just, you got to protect your real life.

Yes, 100%. But she also has, like, an interesting, there was, like, stuff there, you know, with, like, her long-term partner, fiance, that woman from the cookie shop. Like, there was just a lot there, but we never explored. I just want to say that I'm glad that Marlo and Kenya are still on their path to friendship. I'm not. I know. I just, I think we see it differently.

I'm so, I've been such a big Marlo fan, and I'm so upset that she's choosing Kenya over Portia. She will regret that decision. I'm telling you. I don't think, and I don't think she sees it as choosing Kenya over Portia. I think she would say that Portia has made it into like her or me. But she like. I don't think that's true at all.

I think she intended to be on good terms with Kenya while still maintaining a friendship with Portia the thing is we're in an interesting crossroads now because like Kenya and Portia both sat next to Andy they're clearly like two of the biggest stars but there's no future for them and it's like the same thing every season like it's just like getting kind of tired and I honestly feel like one of them has to go for like the show to really move forward in a real way or they have to find a way to move past their stuff which I don't know which they fake did last season I don't know if it's possible but like really anything's possible yeah that's true you know Danielle Staub and Teresa Giudice came back together anything is possible it's so true

so it was honestly like a fine season there was a lot of hype around the bolo thing and I think they delivered but that happened really early on in the season and everything after that was just like wah wah wah the false prophet like are you kidding me yeah that's when you know but I think like it's part of this like 2020 year of content like I think they were filming like during just like a rough COVID time and there was only so much to do it wasn't as bad as OC so right that's the bar that's the bar the Real Housewives kids was on I did not watch it i fell asleep so early but i will watch it and give my thoughts at some point um but did you see the beer mans just in bravo news have been posting a lot online like don't worry like we'll be back on your tv soon yeah they're doing something with peacock called like beer man brunch is that what

you think that's what kim posted no kim posted a story saying like we'll be back on your tv soon that's it beer Beerman brunch. Where did I read that? The Beerman bunch. I think that was just like. Oh Beerman bunch. I read it. So people are suspecting that it's on Peacock.

And I agree. But I don't know why they would change the name. I read it as Beerman brunch. But I guess she was saying the Beerman bunch. Yes. But why would it be a different name if it's on Peacock? It wouldn't need to be a new name. No it wouldn't.

But maybe it's going to be a new show. Who knows? I'm upset. And I know nobody else is. Or maybe they want to rebrand. Like, Don't Be Tardy is a little... Tired. Tired.

I agree. So if it's a new home, a new show, I think it's actually a good idea if they change the name. Yeah, I actually think they would do well on Peacock. And Peacock, like, of all the streaming services, is just, like, just like not hitting it at all well I feel like they're in a lull right now just because like there's nothing that's like so pop and I feel like HBO Max has like everything right now I love HBO Max I even watched a little bit because Zach was watching Ellen's Next Big Designer Ellen's Next Top Designer Ellen has a new show she's not on it but it's called Ellen's Next

America she's not on it But her name is in the title It's so weird It has nothing to do with her It's not her vibe at all It's like the next designer What are they designing for? Decor Home

Ellen has a line It's really good The show It's like premium design Why isn't she on it? I don't know And I don't know why Her name is on it

Because it makes me Like not want to watch it Are they designing For her home decor company? No Zach said that The winner gets $100,000 but what they should get is like a job with like a collaboration line with like cb2 or something because like ellen's company ed it's huge they sell it at bed bath me on i actually have some of the shit like sure i didn't even know it was ellen's it's just good stuff the prize does not seem worthy of like these people are so talented the episode i watched i had to

design like a children's backyard like playground. And like, but they do it like aesthetically and like monkey bars but make them cool. Right. And it was, it was really interesting.

That is so bizarre. It's so bizarre. But yeah, there's nothing, there's nothing anchoring Peacock. Like they thought they were going to make their bones on the fact that they have

the office and friends or whatever. But HBO Max has friends, never mind. And they have the office and like nobody cares. But I do think that the Housewives All Stars, whatever it's going to be called being on peacock like will be good for them but when is that gonna that's not going to be ready for months yeah

peacock just like kind of sucks yeah of all the streaming service launched in the last year i think it's probably like the least successful in my mind i don't think besides quibi why it's big i just think there's highs and lows like it just because you're not watching something on peacock right now like you just have forgotten about it which i feel all the way like all the time about some of the things that i subscribe like i guess but i really i use all of my subscription services for different things like and i've i watched when peacock started friends on hbo max oh that's what i use hbo max right now i'm watching big shot hulu i'm watching the bold typeulu I'm watching The Bold Type

Disney Plus Like I do when I have A movie night with Ben Like everything serves When something gets trending On Netflix Like everything serves a purpose Peacock doesn't fit in there

I'm curious if I'm the only one Like let me know I just watched the Downton movie On Peacock I think that Yellowstone was on Peacock Oh okay So I don't know

I just I watched NYC Prep Like when I first got Peacock And it was just like Not enough to keep me Even though it was really good. LOL. So that's our show, correct?
