Good morning, Millennials. Welcome back to the Morning Toast. Happy Tuesday. I hope everyone is having an amazing, splendid, chugalicious day. You know what? I'm having all those things so far and more because I rose and grown this morning and I did a workout before the toast. So that's two in one week. That's crazy. Isn't that crazy? I'm actually going for a two a day today because I'm going to Live Method later and I was like I wanted to get some cardio in because I'm I'm in grind mode sometimes you're on and sometimes you're off so right now I'm grinding for something you're sometimes you're in rise mode and sometimes you're in grind mode right now I'm in grind mode for Memorial Day weekend and I'm doing a two a day today and I will let everyone know how that goes so happy for you because I was really inspired by

the Kardashians because they do Kylie's been doing two a days and I'm like I could try it two a day that's so funny I'm doing two a days too I'm gonna do two lunches and two dinners and I just feel like that's really gonna bring me peace self-care looks different for everyone 100% we love to see it you know what it looks like for me yesterday posted up on the couch listening to the amazing playlist you made from our Nashville trip just like of all the songs we like heard and liked and I read some random Colleen Hoover book called Ugly Love. And it was so cute. Like I was obsessed. I finished in like three hours. And that's how my evening was because Ben was out. And it was honestly, I don't like being alone, but it was like peak loneliness. You're never alone when you have a Kindle. There's worlds waiting for you. You're also never alone when you're with Christ.

That's true. So I've heard. You're never alone when you're with Theo. Well, that actually is true. Yeah. And you're with Theo. Well, that actually is true. Yeah. And you were with Theo, so you weren't actually alone? Yeah, of course. No, I'm not. I'm really not alone when I'm with Theo. But I forgot to tell you this yesterday.

Theo was a TBT, a two breakfast tigs. We love a two breakfast tigs when the parents don't communicate. Every now and then we get a TBT situation because me and Ben woke up. I fed Theo. Ben's in the shower. I go in to brush my teeth. And I'm like, I fed Theo. He's like, wait, no, I fed him at seven.

I'm like, seven? We were asleep. And he's like, no, no, no. Like, he got up. So I fed him. I'm like, what? Like, it was such a dumb miscommunication. 100% Ben's fault.

So Theo accidentally had two breakfasts yesterday. And he has been farting all day. Like, I read the whole book with, like, a big fart up my nose, like, permanently. He has been farting so much. He just farted. Like, it has been. a big fart up my nose, like, permanently. He has been farting so much. He just farted. Like, it has been. So if you smell anything, it's not me. It's Theo.

Okay. You know what? I understand. I personally love a two breakfast tigs. Like, he thinks it's his birthday. It's, like, so exciting. So I'm happy for him that he got an extra breakfast in. It's special.

It is special. In the grand scheme of things, like, it doesn't really matter. No. And he just felt really special. And we love that for him. I wonder if he knew he was tricking us or he was just like, wow, they're being so nice today. like it doesn't really matter no and he just felt really special and we love that for him i wonder if he knew he was tricking us or he was just like wow they're being so nice imagine he was like no mom i'm good yeah i already ate thanks i'm all full i'm all set i'm all set thanks mom um so

what's up like what's going on with you nothing much i really am just like in grind mode you saw me yesterday i was taking calls from the treadmill which was just like such a crazy thing to do In grind mode. You saw me yesterday. I was taking calls from the treadmill, which was just, like, such a crazy thing to do. Turned. But I really enjoyed it. Like, two years ago, I heard Skinny Confidential say that you should, like, do your emails from the treadmill.

I was like, that's a good idea. And then finally, two years later, I put it into practice. Sometimes these things take time. Sometimes they do. And then, again, like, couldn't tell you what I did yesterday, but it was a very busy day. It was. We had a really big meeting about our merch. We've got some sickening ass merch coming up.

So many collections. Honestly, so little time. So little time. But make sure you're being kept abreast at shopmorningtoast.com. Oh, yeah. Then I went to Olivia's. She cooked dinner. Very delicious.

Good times. I saw. Thanks for the invite. Well, you saw them on Sunday. Thanks for the invite. Well, my home was not ready for so many people since Bruno peed all over it. You were making that up. I actually spoke to him and he said that you made it up.

Oh, yeah. I made it up. The pee in the elevator. I actually peed myself. I dropped Trow in the elevator and peed and blamed it on Brew. He said. I dropped Trow on my own bed twice. That sounds like you.

Pretending it was Theo. And then one last time for good measure on my living room carpet that sounds like you love to see that you're hydrated no it's good it's good yeah keep lying to yourself keep lying to yourself no no keep lying to yourself Bruno's a gem but he's such a sweet boy but he you know he's going through something I think oh you think I think he's just feeling a little lost you know just without direction I think that is what lost means he's at a pivotal place in his life where he's like shall I be a good boy or a bad boy and I know he's gonna pick good boy but I think he's flirting with the bad side two roads diverged in the yellow wood and brew took the road less traveled. Yeah.

He will, of course, be a good boy. Because I know that's what's in his heart. But he's flirting with the dark side. It's so important. You know what he is? He's on his rump springer. He is. He's on his rump springer.

He doesn't know if the Amish life is for him. So he's heading out for a couple days to see the English world. Dance with temptation. And then come back so you could be a good Amish boy. I know. And you know what? If you love something, set it free. If it was yours, it will return. And if it went on Rumspringa, it's probably not coming back. No, I know. He's breaking Bruno, but he'll be back. Breaking Amish was such a good show. Breaking Bruno. And I feel like not enough people talk about kind of the evolution of the TLC network because now it's like a circus.

It's like, I don't, I don't like what it is now, but there was a time when they were churning out such unbelievably sickening programming. Sister Wives. Breaking Amish. It was still circus themed. Yeah, but they took it too far now. Like some of the shit they have on there, it's too far. Okay.

But like it was always like meant to be like. Freak show. The circus channel. Yeah, literally. TLC. Okay. But, like, it was always, like, meant to be, like, the circus channel. Yeah, literally. TLC, the last circus. Like, 100%. I just feel like where it's at now, it's, like, taking it a little far. Well, they were obviously so...

Successful. Emboldened by their early success. Well, all I'm saying is that I feel like not enough people speak about, like, early to mid... No, like like 2010s there was some unbelievably sickening programming going down on TLC

in a good way that's great and now it's just sickening like that Dr. Pimple Popper show is so disgusting sick sick well

other than that it's quiet times mm-hmm I watched Real Housewives of New Jersey last night so we'll recap that whenever but I'd like to turn my TV back on. It's on on Wednesday. And I got back to it so I'm catching up on everything

and yeah I'm enjoying my book. I got to read a little bit yesterday. I had a migraine for the last three days so I couldn't watch TV or even read. That's when you know it's bad. I just had to like lay in the dark. Yeah. So I'm back on my content grind. Plate is full. Feeling bountiful. Plate is full though low sodium and it's bountiful. Plate is full, though low sodium. And it's bountiful. We have Real Housewives of New York on tonight, correct? Cool, yeah. Anything else? No, but I do feel like I'm behind on stuff.

I've had to watch Dynasty. I'm so excited. Got it. I've got to keep up on Keeping Up. I'm so behind on Keeping Up. I'm not Keeping Up. I have a lot ahead of me, including my two a day. I'll let you guys know how that goes.

I wonder if I'll be able to make it all the way. But you know what? Life's a climb. Yeah. And the view is great. But you got to try new things. You got to push yourself. You want to see that change.

You sound like a SoulCycle instructor. I know. That's probably where I heard that. But I think it's true. What was the phrase? Like you have to push yourself if you want change. Because if you want something new to happen, you have to try something different. I guess for sure. It's not like life's not a Colleen Hoover novel like

crazy things don't just happen to people who are doing nothing exactly you know that's literally the premise of every single Colleen Hoover book yeah no it's it's a terrible example I loved ugly love by the way I highly recommend sweet and I'm reading the Romanov, the story of Maria Fyodorovna. Very good so far. I can't wait to read it next. Yeah, I'm going to gift it to you. Oh, that's so sweet. You should be able to gift someone a Kindle book. Oh, that's a cute idea.

Ariana Grande is a married woman. TMZ has learned she tied the knot this weekend. Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ the wedding went down at her home in Montecito. TMZ is told there were less than 20 guests, including family members from both sides, and the whole thing was very intimate and filled with a lot of love. We're told there was no real ceremony.

She and her fiance, Dalton Gomez, said their I do's in an informal way. It was really just for them. It's unclear how long they planned to do it in this way. In other words, whether it was impulsive or not, or if this was always the plan for a small, lethal wedding. I literally forgot that she was dating this random man and that she was even engaged to him. Cute.

Like, not how I would do it if i was ariana grande but cute yeah i found this really surprising because i feel like ari she's been engaged before and like i like now she's a married woman like everything's changed like this isn't just like another like ari's in love and got engaged like ari's married yeah no and it kind of like washes away all that happened before this it does like now this is you know day one kumza fresh kumza fresh day one husband and wife it's crazy it's a new era um i i'm curious if they like had a wedding planned and like just decided to do this like informal ceremony because it's one thing to do it really private with 20 people but it's another thing to like not even have a formal ceremony so like yeah did they get married yeah they got married but

no but like there wasn't you know the caterer the photographer got it like the classic wedding things what do you think do you think she wore her hair in a high pony a hundred percent because that's her look and why wouldn't she want to look her best on her wedding day yeah I agree I I do hope that one day soon we get pictures I would she's such I think personally like style icon queen and I would love to see her wedding look yeah but if it was as formal as informal as this article says like she probably is wearing sweatpants no but she's also the kind of person who like gets dressed up to go to the grocery store so I think if it's her wedding I I think she wore like a little white dress thigh

high boots and a high pony I do think so oh you think she had the boots I think she had boots I think she wore like you know how my dress was like tool tiered yeah but only one tier only one tier of tool like so like like what she wore on Jimmy Fallon when she was promoting the pink dress little pink dress in white yeah with white boots and a high pony, half up, half down probably. Well, you should look and feel like yourself on your wedding day. So if that's the case, then that's great. Yeah. I think, I hope we get pictures.

And if I were a betting woman and there were bets placed on these sort of things. There definitely are. That's what I'm betting. Okay. I don't think we'll get photos. I don't know. Maybe in like a music video or something. Oh, yeah.

Maybe she comes out with a song. Yeah. That's like, I do, you know you know literally very Jesse James Decker very but did Jesse James Decker do that she wrote a song called I do for her wedding she performed at her wedding and then the music video was wedding footage and honestly she posted it recently I guess they had an anniversary and I had chills it was so good honestly I would say one of my biggest regrets is releasing Toast after my wedding so that I couldn't perform my own song at my wedding and sing myself down the aisle. Yeah, well, you know what? They were so far apart, like literally four years apart.

That's not even something you... It's not in the realm of possibility. It's not. So why bother regretting it? Don't lament. Yeah. You know? It was so beautiful.

And those boys who sang you down the aisle did a better job... They were sickening. ...than you ever could. A hundred percent. No offense. A hundred percent. So I'm really happy for Ari. This is some unexpected news that we love to see.

Yeah. I'm just feeling very negative this week. Okay. I was recapping our episode yesterday, and I was just like, I said I hate Bill Gates. I hate Olivia Munn. Like, I was just feeling negative, and maybe I do feel that way. I'm just, like, in a negative headspace.

Or conversely like maybe everyone just fucking sucks you know what it is it's not even that I hate everyone everyone is annoying me like literally everyone but I think that's on them being annoying and not you being annoyed I think it's definitely a little bit of both like I'm definitely in a toxic headspace right now I'm just like really aren't I like just this is who you marry like like sorry like I'm just like great you know I'm just feeling negative and I don't want to bring down you you know, people who are happy about this news. So like, whatever. But that's what you can always get here. Like at the toast, like if you're feeling one way about Justin Hartley, I might be feeling the other way. Negativity. No balance. Yeah. No balance. I'm just like

feeling negative. So when I don't have anything positive to say, I don't really have much to contribute. I understand. Well, you know what? I think it's just like, show us the pictures, show us the pictures. I think other people are feeling contribute. I understand. Well, you know what? It's just like, show us the pictures. Show us the pictures. I think other people are feeling negative. I think we're all feeling negative sometimes. I am. And I think that your negativity represents a lot of people sometimes, you know? I think it represents the fact that it's 1,000 degrees in the studio and I'm about to faint.

Yeah. And it's so hot outside. I'm just like not really emotionally ready for summer. And it's been made abundantly clear to me by the weather today that like summer has arrived summer summer summer summer also I watched the first episode of high school musical the musical the series season two it was like so bad um I I just have a feeling that it's bad I'm not even gonna add that to my plate because like it's obviously weird with the Olivia and Josh of it all but it's also just like not good like yeah like scripted like it was just not good understood I feel that um anyways back to being negative like do what you got to do sometimes

self-care looks like being negative that is true you know yeah um and then I'm gonna slip in another story about someone who I know you don't feel good about speaking of negativity who speaking of negativity Dominic West's wife reflects on their wonderful love affair after the Lily James photo scandal. Wait, what? So Dominic West and his wife are together. She is reflecting on their beautiful love story as if the Lily James thing has not happened. I love when celebrities are, I don't know if I can call this woman Dominic West's wife a celebrity. I just love when they think we're delusional, you know?

Like we remember and that's literally the only thing we're going to remember till the end of time. Dominic West's wife, Catherine Fitzgerald, is feeling nostalgic about the beginning days of her relationship with Dominic. She spoke about her love affair with West, whom she first met during their days at Trinity College, Dublin, in an interview with the Irish Independent published Sunday. She admitted that her marriage has faced ups and downs amid the media storm that began after he was photographed with Lily James. She told Irish Independent she had an instant attraction to Dominic when they met. Also you know what I just realized. This is like literal propaganda. 100%. You know what I just realized. I just really want to talk about Dominic

West because I learned like not only is he gonna be disgracing us in the affair. In the crown. The Affair. Horrible. Worst show ever. In The Crown next season. He's also going to be in the next Downton Abbey movie. The sequel movie. And you know who else is in that movie?

Lily James. And I don't even think that's where they met. How did Dominic West get in with the British crowd to play a role in The Crown and in Downton Abbey? He's not that good of an actor. I don't know. And I'm upset about it. Yeah. I'm also upset that, like, so far, I haven't known any of the actors or actresses

who've been on The Crown, which kind of make it, like, it's an even playing field. Like, I don't know you from anything. You don't remind me of anyone. But Dominic was a character on The Affair, which I did watch all six seasons of. So I don't really like that I have this familiarity with him. When I just, like, leave this alone.

Let's leave Dominic out of this, you know? Yeah, let's leave Dominic out of this. Though the update here is that him and his wife are still together, despite the fact that he was spotted in Rome on a tryst with Lily James. That was like a crazy time. Yeah. They were spotted once and then never to be seen together again. And then she was also spotted out with one of the Chris's.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. One of the Chris's. I was going to say something mean say something mean but i'm not okay that's nice you know what i will no i won't okay but also i just want to just sneak in a tidbit about another person that you don't like justin hartley confirmed is married to his girlfriend now wife yeah so we were right for them like when they show up to the award show wearing wedding bands let's just assume they're married what is with everyone being, like, so coy? Like, like. No, I feel like they weren't being coy at all. And it was just, like, the media didn't get the memo, like, because it wasn't, like, spelled out for them.

Because they're, like, irrelevant. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So they're, like, they are wearing wedding bands. Yeah, so they had to confirm it. Boyfriend and girlfriend are wearing wedding bands. Yeah, that's fair. That's fair.

You know, but we sniffed that one right out. Yeah, it wasn't on hard. Theo did it too. Theo did it. He's the one who told me. The thing with Dominic West is, is he even British? That's what I want to know. I guess.

Because he was American in The Affair, which, of course, could have just been an accent. But there's no way. He's English. Okay. He's English. of course could have just been an accent but there's no way he's english okay he's english because there's no way they would let an american disgrace themselves in the crown they wouldn't they wouldn't do that it's such an authentic show so authentic who's he playing in grown up charles grown charles which is actually pretty good because we already hate him yeah and obviously we're gonna hate grown-up Charles if it if younger Charles is any indication

a hundred percent so it's it's not the worst thing but this Downton news just a tough blow it was a blow for the Downton fans oh I'm so excited for the crown I'm excited for Downton just got the most recent like Diana season yeah not the woman you married don't bring the boys into this are you ready for our next story I won't bring the boys into this. Are you ready for our next story? I will bring the boys into it, I promise. Thank you. Yeah, I'm ready. Okay, so a little programming news.

Love it. So here's our programming news. NBC's 2021 to 2022 schedule has no comedies. NBC is loading. Sounds like they're looking for a rising star in comedy.

NBC is loading up. With a negative outlook on life. On its fall 2021 schedule with so much drama, it's not even funny. Literally. People like literally. I thought that was good Hollywood reporting. It's cute. It's cute.

I'm just being negative. Literally, for the first time in at least 50 years, the network will start a season with no half hour comedies on its schedule. NBC is instead saving return shows. Kenan, Mr. Mayer, Young Rock, American Auto and Grand Cru for early 2022. You know, it's kind of crazy, though. Like all of those shows that you just mentioned, like their comedy roster, like are not popular.

Yeah, or they're new. Kenan is brand new and they literally did not give him one dollar to promote it because they saw no commercials except one during snl like a year ago like yeah they were there was no marketing budget what were the other ones mr mayor i think that's ted danson yeah never watched like you know what i think i speak for a lot of the people like we've had enough of ted danson like yeah go to yeah we've all seen curb yeah no it's just like it's enough yeah he was the good place enough let someone else get a tv show Young Rock come again Young Rock which is the story of Young the Rock oh yeah yeah I'll allow it and then first year series which haven't even premiered yet American Auto and Grand Crew both which I haven't they literally sound like I haven't heard anything about, and I shouldn't have

because they're not premiering until 2022. A video game, Grand Theft Auto. But that's really crazy that there's no comedies in the lineup. Well, there's success with Chicago PD, Chicago MD, Chicago Met. No, it's all dick wolf. It's law and order. Law and order, Criminal Minds, SVU, Organized Crime. Like, they have one show, and they give it 11 spinoffs. Yeah, no, that's all it is in the fall,

which is crazy for the first time in 50 years like I feel like ABC really nails the comedy genre they have like the Goldbergs blackish yeah what else I don't know if anyone really nails it this is gonna be like a crazy thing to say I just feel like comedy sitcoms are like a little outdated. The format is because of the way that people watch TV now. But you could say that about these drama shows too. No, I don't feel like they're outdated. They're still so popular. But it's like I can think of a million sitcoms that got one season and got canceled. But there's like honestly you don't need much to be like a – it's literally the murder dirter.

Like it's just like this formula that works. And I feel like sitcoms haven't worked for a while. And some networks, I feel like HBO really kind of nails like how to do a comedy. Like Veep was hysterical and it was no laugh track, no awkward like setups, no fake set. Like it just, we're over that. Right. Or we're just living in an unfunny time and there's a dearth in the comedy space. A dearth. There's a dearth. No, I think we're actually living in an unfunny time, and there's a dearth in the comedy space. A dearth.

There's a dearth. No, I think we're actually living in a really funny time. You do? Yeah, like, there's so much to make fun of. But we're living in a difficult climate. Right, no, I think, yeah, there's so much to make fun of, but, like, are people being funny? No, no, are people being funny? I feel like I watch so much stuff that's intended to be funny, and it's so unfunny. People aren't being funny on cable. A hundred percent. So. But

also that was NBC. They didn't include a Saturday Night Live. Oh no. They didn't include Saturday Night Live, but they're, Saturday Night Live is ending their current season soon. And last week's ratings were record low. Really? Yeah. The Elon Musk one or the. No. Keegan-Michael Key. Keegan-Michael Key, Olivia Rodrigo. Really? I definitely olivia rodrigo would bring the gen zers in i think they probably just watched her performance on tiktok like yeah you know they don't have dbr that's dbr so so chewy actually the more i think about it maybe you're really not chewy like you have youtube tv and you have a chain on your phone yes everyone look at this chain shout out who gave that to you shop jill and ally it's really cute it's the iron and ally shapiro jill's iron wow sorry i'm in like

a foul fucking mood right now like you know what i can't really put my i'm definitely getting my period as long as you can admit it yeah we have no problem no i like literally feel like running someone over with my car like i don't even have a car like i'm just in a foul fucking mood like i didn't sleep my throat kind of hurts like and i just wish i was in nashville like that's be fucking real why didn't you sleep you know when you like read a book and like you're like in the book yeah or when you're playing like a game and then you try and go to sleep you're in the game i'm always in the book i'm always in gym i was in the book and like i was in this apartment complex where like the book took place. And I just like didn't sleep.

Oh, I understand that. You were just like in and out of it. Yeah. And like Ben was like all over the bed. And like no one had respect for my 50% of the bed. So I'm just like feeling really quippy. And I'm not to be like, not to set women back like 400 decades. But I actually think I am getting my period.

So like just excuse me. I'm just like feel like sla but I actually think I am getting my period. So like, just excuse me. I'm just like, feel like slapping someone today. And it's so hot. And that really always bothers me. And I'm looking forward to walking home and hope someone shoves me so I could literally shove them back so fucking hard. Okay. Get all my anger out.

We have two more stories and one is going to make you more angry. Oh no. And then one is going to cheer you up. Okay. Okay. Next up, U.S. Airlines may start... This is disgusting. U.S. Airlines may start weighing passengers.

Well, U.S. Airlines may also start losing passengers. And I'm starting an airline called The Fat Fleet, and we don't weigh you. We just cross our fingers and hope for the best. Airline passengers in the U.S. may be weighed at boarding gates according to a report that's so unfair you eat so much at the gate no not even that like okay you're traveling with like a new boyfriend like i went through this experience when me and ben were like maybe like a year dating we took our first trip to puerto rico and we went parasailing and it was a horrible experience we never went again because

we were like fighting the whole time when we were on the boat the guy asked us how much we weighed and like Ben said it and then I like froze and Ben was like I'll turn around so you can like I'm like no it's fine and like I completely lied I was like 125 and the guy was like no for real I was like 125 he's like okay it's your funeral um and then i was up there like panicked because i lied about my weight that i was gonna like fall into the water yeah so i just think asking people their weight in public spaces should be illegal yeah well i feel like one this reminds me of that episode of curb which if you haven't seen where they're chartering a plane and larry needs everyone's weight and like suzy will not give her weight that is so true that's a great reference

but this is actually an interesting factoid, like how we got here, because aircrafts are required to ensure a safe weight before taking off and factor in averages for passenger and crew as well as cargo and fuel. You need to know how much weight is on the plane in order to know how much fuel.

Anyway, I understand the math behind it. But according to a circular advisory from the Federal Aviation Administration in recent days, airlines could be asked to start updating average airline passenger weight to account for increases in the average weight of American adults. After COVID, what was it?

Like the average weight gain was like 21 pounds for men. No, I mean, it depends on like your age, but the average weight gain for millennials in COVID was 40 pounds. Okay, I'm below average. Yeah, but we're also shorter. I'm still below average. Don't take that away from me. No, no, no, I'm below average. Yeah, but we're also shorter. I'm still below average. Don't take that away from me.

No, no, no. I'm below average too, but I think that if you measured up average height with weight, if it was percentage body weight, we might be those people. No, I don't think so. Anyway, so it's an interesting fact. It's a sign of the times.

It's just really unnecessary. The average weight of people has gone up. No, the thing is, it's like sign of the times it's just really unnecessary weight of people has gone up no the thing is it's like build bigger planes or I don't know better planes like this sounds like a them problem don't bring me and my weight into this imagine like when you weigh your bag on the scale to get onto hop out and they already have systems in place okay but what if like okay I would do this if like I could just input my weight before like in the privacy of my own home okay but but like some people would lie like some people haven't weighed themselves in years yeah that's true you know but i agree like this is so embarrassing no it's awful and like i like to weigh myself in the morning

before i've had a sip of water like what if i'm taking a night flight jackie i just gonna become I'm gonna become one of those people like Travis Barker who takes a bus everywhere like I'm just not gonna be able to fly anymore yeah I'll save myself a lot of money I think that's the solution it is what it is yeah I mean I understand why they feel like they should do why this feels like the right move for them I just it's funny because like their priority is obviously safety but like we don't care I'd literally rather the plane go down. I'd rather not know my weight. I'd rather the plane go down than everyone know how much I weigh. And like maybe I was the reason the plane went down.

Yeah. But I mean, okay, what if they weigh you and the monitor, only the gate attendant can see it? It's still embarrassing. I can't explain it. You think so? Yeah. What is, I don't know this woman at all but like that that kind of makes it better if it was someone you knew like I wouldn't want someone

I know to know if it's someone I don't know I don't know it's like when you get weighed at the doctor like that's not personal that's just facts no there's no good there's no good time to get weighed that is the takeaway here okay well just want to give you guys like advanced notice and um we're all in this together you know we're all in this together um are you ready for our fifth and final story that's going to cheer you up is it the final story that's brought to you by liquid iv yes it is when we push our body hard or we're just Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do a cutting-edge blend of vitamin C, zinc, Wellmune, and convenient single-serve packets to help strengthen your immune system.

Sign on, get hydrated. Fifth and final story. fifth and final story. That's actually the perfect segue to our fifth and final story because you are being Ned Schneebly. And 18 years later after School of Rock,

two kids from School of Rock are dating in real life. I saw this on TikTok. Shout out to the girl on TikTok who discovered this. She's making fucking headlines from her bedroom. Marfie Mae. At Marfie Mae. Shout out to the girl on TikTok who discovered this who's making fucking headlines from her bedroom. Marfie Mae.

At Marfie Mae. Marfie Mae, you're a queen. She realized that Freddie, I think his name was, who was the heftier kid who was in charge of security. And Martha, who was the blonde backup singer.

Yeah, Blondie. Who was kind of boring. Yeah, she was friends with Summer. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But like, I don't think they really like, I think there was some competition between them.

Yeah, I think they were like friends, maybe their parents were friends. They are yeah. But like, I don't think they really like, I think there was some competition between them. Yeah, I think they were like friends. Maybe their parents were friends. They are dating in real life. I don't know for how long, but they're dating currently. They are dating currently, which is just a beautiful story about the power of School of Rock. That Marta and Frankie are a couple, as indicated by their very cute Instagram posts together.

Honestly, I feel like this is just kind of a sign that School of Rock is really the gift that keeps on giving like I watched School of Rock a few months ago and I had the best night of my life like I've seen it on Broadway like it is really a timeless classic and this just proves that and this just proves that like some movies were made for a greater purpose. And like not only did we get an amazing movie, but we got love, you know. And I would say that like if these two get married and have kids, like those are babies. Jack Black has to perform at the wedding or like officiate. 100%.

No, no. If these two get married and like Jack Black isn't even there, like I will cry. No, he has. Because they obviously don't talk to him. He has to officiate. And they actually have to have like an acapella choir saying, well, if you want to be the teacher of me. While she walks down the aisle.

Yeah. And baby, you just better forget it. That would be beautiful. That would be so cute. I mean, I would, like, die to go to that wedding. No, same. I'm sure they, like, don't even, like, want to, like, be associated with School of Rock. Like, they've probably, according to them, like, done so much more with their careers since then.

But they haven't. They seem like the type who are, like, done so much more with their careers since then. But they haven't. They seem like the type who are, like, proud of where they came from. I hope so. I mean, Freddie, like, got hot. Yeah, and, like, it brought them together.

I don't think they would turn their backs on it. I don't. Yeah, what's funny about that movie is, like, and we talk about this a lot, like, when kids are in film and television,

like, it gets to a point where, like, some of them are, like, in their, like, there's, every kid has, like, a weird stage, like, looks-wise. Like, Bran Stark went through it very publicly on Game of Thrones that's turning into one of my Dennis's funeral things like because I bring up Bran Stark all the time

but he like just to let everyone know he was like such a cute baby on the show but then he went through puberty and it's like an awkward stage so we saw him at like this really weird stage and then by the time the show was over he was like a full-blown man it also happened with the kid from modern family yep luke yeah he had a really weird stage but then he was like cute and like he had like like a six-pack and stuff but like there was a questionable phase it happens but it doesn't happen to every kid because i think manny from always cute always cute like grew up like very traditional like linear you know but sometimes kids especially boys they go through like their awkward stage where they have like you know a furry lip and like they have weird teeth like their voice is their voice is cracking but and

they're on tv and like it's really imagine how they feel it's my favorite thing to watch but what brought to my point was that i don't think any of the kids in school of rock were going through that phase they chose like a really cute group of kids. Yeah. Not to sound like a freak. They did choose a cute group of kids. And also what's also cute is that Caitlin, who played Martha, is an OBGYN ultrasound technologist. They both live in New York.

And Angelo just graduated from law school. Wait, his name is Angelo? Yeah, Angelo Masagli. Wait, oh my God, they're so successful. So they're not even acting anymore. They're no longer in the craft. That's crazy. Can you imagine like going to law school on your first day like you sit next to Freddie from School of Rock? Yeah. I love how they're both just so normal. Yeah. I feel like that's a great way to get out you know like as a child actor. Yeah that's like

a fun thing to do as a kid and then like you find the love and I wonder how they reconnected. I doubt they've been dating since the movie. No, no. But besides from Miranda Cosgrove, did any of those other kids become famous? I don't think so. I find that interesting. It was just about Ned.

He stole the show. He really did. And honestly, honorable mention for Sarah Silverman being in that movie. I never realized that. Well, I could talk about School of Rock all day. No, I know same so I'm just really happy for the happy couple um and I feel like we have like a nice range of news
