Good morning, Millennials. Welcome back to the Morning Toast. Happy Monday. Hope everyone had an
incray-ob amazing weekend. We're so excited to be back here. Hey, Jax, how you doing?
I'm doing well. I, too, hope your weekend was incray-ob. We all hope you had an incray-ob
weekend, our last weekend of July. Today, we enter August.
August slipped away into a moment in time. I wish she would. It's so fucking hard.
I wish she would. August usually goes fucking hard. I wish she would.
August usually goes pretty quickly or slowly depending on who you are and where you are.
I'm hoping for a brief August, but I have some fun things planned and obviously I have so much
going on right now that I think time will slip away from me. You know, I mean, if you're like
vacationing at the beach or spending August in Italy, like of course it's going to slip by.
But if you're getting your fucking ass up and working,
it's going to take, you know, the same amount of time to pass
as any ordinary month would.
If you're providing the entertainment for those vacationing in Italy,
if you're working this month, yeah, it's going to go slowly.
But for us, we have so much exciting things happening,
especially today.
And I hate to over-promise and under-deliver,
but today's going to be a transformative day.
Yeah.
And I'm actually vlogging the entire day
because I figured people would want to see like,
Claudia, what the fuck are you doing down there?
I can't believe you're still there, Claudia.
I thought maybe on Monday you'd be back in your studio.
No, I'm doing an entire day in the life vlog
because today happens to be extremely busy.
Not only is it transformation day here at the Morning Toast,
it's also August 1st, which
means I announced the final tier dates of my NLOG tour.
You announced?
Yeah, I did.
It's on Instagram.
Thanks for following.
I was busy.
I can't get to the gram till later in the day.
We have 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11.
11 shows, 11 cities added.
What cities?
I'm so glad you asked, Jackie.
Thank you.
Already announced West Hampton, Red Bank, and New Haven.
Those sound premium.
Portland and Seattle.
North Fork.
No, not North Fork.
Pacific Northwest.
Bella Swan moment.
Long Island, Huntington, New York.
You love Huntington.
I do.
And Huntington loves you.
Famed theater where I saw Casey Musgraves perform.
Pittsburgh, Divine Diversion holds a special place in our hearts.
Yes.
Nashville, of course.
I'm so happy for the Nashville Toasters.
Me too.
I'm sorry I neglected you, but you're the star of the second leg.
So would you rather be a small fish in a big pond or a big fish in a small pond?
It's a personal question.
It is, by the way.
More personal than comedy.
Big fish in small pond, obviously.
Obviously. Charlotte and Durham, North the way. More personal than comedy. Big fish in small pond, obviously.
Obviously.
Charlotte and Durham, North Carolina, two separate North Carolina dates, because as previously discovered on the Dirty Jeans Tour, North Carolina is one of the better states
in this country.
I would say top five for sure.
And then Birmingham, Alabama.
I didn't even realize how we're so big in Alabama, the toasts.
They need to redo that study because we would come up for Alabama.
Oh, love that. Yeah, we we really would I have a question so every time you announce a tour date there's
always like people from a certain city who are like Ohio it's Ohio yeah so um let me tell you
why first of all what I was gonna say there's always people from a certain city who are like
come to blank and it's like really the majority and the the left out city last leg it was nashville now nashville is taken
care of so i guess it's the ohio no ohio dates question mark and let me tell you why um i did
a couple ohio dates um previously and i did cleveland and i did columbus and i think i did
liberty something and they were all comedy clubs which i love doing comedy clubs but for me to like
miss the toast and travel like it has to be worth my time, um, in terms of ticket sales. So I'm trying to do like, I'm trying to do less
shows, more people, if that makes sense, AKA bigger venues just to maximize my time so I can
be here for the toast and also travel for tour. Um, so demographic wise, I just don't think there
was like a big enough audience in one particular part of Ohio. Um, And I had such a negative experience in Cleveland last time.
I don't think I could go back.
I don't think that's possible.
And you know what?
I would feel bad for the Ohio toasters, except for how much shine we give to Cleveland.
You know, we're constantly shining on Cleveland.
Actually, you are.
Ever since I actually went to Cleveland and had like an encounter with some probably the
worst crowd I've ever had in my life.
I won't be
returning sorry I am holding a grudge here's my theory if I may I feel like a lot of people seek
out comedy you know as a bright spot in an otherwise dark life or a dark day and I just
feel like people in Cleveland are like so bright and happy that they don't like need comedy as a
relief that's funny actually it's a good call. Like people in New York, like we need it.
Yeah, no, desperately.
I understand what you're saying.
I like how you still say people in New York, we need it.
Well, I've been here for a week.
So I'm technically like still a New Yorker in my mindset.
But I really look forward to that changing.
And I'm still a New Yorker in the way that I walk.
Like I'm getting places fast.
I'm not walking for leisure.
And let me tell you something about the people here. I'm still a New Yorker in the way that I walk. Like I'm getting places fast. I'm not walking for leisure. And let me tell you something about the people here. I'm still a New Yorker in the
way that I talk. Let me tell you something about the people here in Florida. When I say that
they're in absolutely no rush to do or get anywhere, it is shocking. That's probably for me
the biggest culture shock. You never really noticed it because every time I'm here, I'm on vacation.
So I don't mind everyone being slow. But here I'm'm working I'm trying to go to FedEx get something printed everyone is just like
molasses yeah it's shocking so I do look forward to those changes in myself I'm sure I'll always
have like a New York way about me but I am so hurried in everything that I do and I do need to
take a chill pill yeah mellow so for the tickets Patreon Patreon members are going to get pre-sale obviously.
That starts on Wednesday.
All the details are on my Instagram.
And then if you're not a Patreon member,
that's Friday.
General on sale for everybody.
So I really hope to see you guys there.
This is the same show
as the beginning of the year,
just different cities.
So if you haven't gotten a chance to see it,
this is your final chance.
And if you have gotten a chance to see it
and you loved it so much,
like come see it again
and bring a friend.
Like spread the power of the toast.
And if she isn't coming to your city,
I would recommend getting the girls together for a,
like a weekend of N log,
because if she's not going to do this show any further and she's saying,
I think you mean that when you say that,
like,
you know,
it's fully done at the end of the year.
It's worth like getting your fucking ass up and going and making a weekend
of it because it's really great stuff um not to like switch gears so completely but i wanted to
touch on something that we spoke on last week which was your mispronunciation of the material
of these chairs um buco right so allegedly somebody messaged me or maybe it was on tiktok
they let me know that we did an ad recently for like a furniture company. And I was describing all of the gorgeous materials in which the company offers furniture.
And one of those was Buckel. And I did say Buckel. So maybe that's why it was in your head.
Maybe. No, it's just we both read it. We both pronounce it the way that it's read.
And you obviously like became classy in the time since but I'm still you know
no but I like being an uncultured swine but I like how I like sat here and I was like it's
boucle what about even more immediate when you corrected me for Candace Cameron Bure and I was
wrong and then not only that but then throughout the rest of the story you called her Candace
Cameron Bure not even what you told me to call her. And you were wrong. You know what I think is important? Like really genuinely, I think it's important that, um, nobody like
learns anything from this show. Like, you know what I mean? Like, so disagree. Like we are not,
so disagree. We are not, you know, English teachers. We're not English majors. Like
we are not going to be teaching you other than life's important lessons. I mean like actual,
like grammar or, you know what I mean?
No, I feel like in every episode you could find like one interesting factoid that we
delivered.
I feel like in every episode, like you can take away like an important life lesson.
Like that too.
Yeah.
But I don't think like, you know, um, like you're going to be taking away like facts,
you know?
No, I think you could get some facts.
You could also get some non-facts
fiction right but i don't think that's fair to say overwhelmingly like sometimes i show up with
a titanic fact that's true like there's things like that yeah and or yesterday on the patreon
like about the i-95 that it goes through the whole country right right okay um okay and the
i stands for interstate and you can go through states that way. That is what interstate means. When you think about it, but no one thinks about
it. Nobody thinks about it. I got on the I-95. I was, we did a podcast episode yesterday,
catching up with Olivia, you know, life in Florida, Michaela. It was a great episode.
And I told the story about how, you know, last week when I was like running around town trying to like do the most I accidentally ended up on I-95 which was the scariest expressway freeway interstate that I'd ever been on in my
life and I didn't understand why I was on the fucking freeway I was going literally 10 minutes
away to FedEx like I wasn't going that far it was horrifying I never saw a freeway that big and I
drive on the highway a lot like but in New York I guess we're limited to like four or five lanes this was dead ass 20 lanes like front it was so crazy a lot of people
traveling interstate and that's why I really kind of um sympathize with Dion from Clueless like
it's fucking freaky especially in a convertible yeah um so tour Wednesday Patreon presale all
the details are on my Instagram Friday for everyone. And I hope to see you guys there.
And we've got a great show.
We do have a great show. The stories
are really good. I'm really excited.
Plus we had a great weekend so we have that
joie de vivre that only a great weekend
can bring. Yeah. Did you watch or consume
a lot of content this weekend? Only read.
Still haven't turned on a TV in my house.
In absolutely no rush to do so.
I finished the red
heads book i'm not sure if i finished it on friday but it's amazing a flicker in the dark by stacy
willingham like all the girls are amped up about it we are recording this week so if you have
questions about the book or just like books in general head over to the redheads book club at
gmail.com send us an email ask us your question then we have snitch's choice coming up she's
between two books now because the book she was gonna choose it's an obvious choice but then she came to me and she was
like i think i'm gonna choose this book and it's like kind of a departure for snitch and like we
love that for her she never wants to depart and so i feel like i have to encourage that yeah i also
saw she like on her be real she was reading the book that i thought she was gonna choose which
would be a little early for her to yeah that's not allowed yeah so she's not choosing it she was violating so she's
not choosing it is what I'm saying oh okay well it is up to her and it's her choice and we empower
choices uh so we shall see but then I also started a celebrity memoir called uppercut by
Carrie White who was a celebrity hairstylist in like the 60s in Hollywood and at first Lauren
Bostic recommended it to me so I always take her recommendations from her seriously because she
recommended Good Morning Monster which really like changed how I think yeah no big deal no biggie um
so and she was like you would love this and at first I was like it's weird to be reading a
memoir from someone I don't know like I not heard of but now in reading it it's like everyone she's talking about you do know
right and it's actually pretty cool and it's really well written and her story is crazy so I
is it written recently 2011 but then she passed away a few months ago oh so it's timely right
right and I'm immensely enjoying actually I just want to get through it because I want to like read
more books because I'm jealous of you yeah I've read like seven books while I'm down here, which pretty much is like a book a day.
And I read a lot this weekend.
No big deal.
No big deal.
Nothing to really like quake over.
But I did watch the Shania Twain documentary on Netflix and I really just wanted to recommend
it to everyone because of course, like, you know, we know Shania.
Of course, we grew up with Shania.
We just like we love her.
We saw her perform. Nick Jonas brought she brought out Nick Jonas at stagecoach, which was weird.
Um, but I guess I never really have sat down and like thought about her as a whole, if that makes
sense. And like really, um, her impact and her reach, like, and I guess it was because it was a
little bit before our time, but, but like when her, she had two albums or maybe
three albums go diamond, like in a row. And like, it was just like, actually, I never really sat
back and thought about like how big she was or like how impressive her accolades are. And the
documentary basically did that for you. I did. I loved it. I did feel like they left out like the
most important part, which was, and she talked about her divorce, how her husband left her for
another woman, but like, they didn't talk about how Shania actually ended up marrying that other woman's husband because
they both were so you know upset over their spouses leaving them that they fell in love
while grieving like that was so interesting so they were like chunks missing from her personal
life and then also me and Olivia you know Olivia like sleuthio she we were reading her Wikipedia
page and there was just like a lot of um not that wikipedia is 100 factual but like on her upbringing i don't know why it wouldn't be
um there was a lot of like what's the word not contradictions but like when two things aren't
adding up like they're not the same like hi uh like what she said in the document yeah what's
the word hypocrisy no no no No, no, no. Like.
Contradictions then.
No, but it's like.
One plus one equals five.
Kind of.
Okay.
So like in the documentary, she said like, this is how my upbringing was.
And then in Wikipedia, it was like kind of different.
I would trust her documentary over Wikipedia.
I don't know.
But like Wikipedia was citing interviews she had done.
It was just like really actually confusing.
And I think she had a really. Did you go read those interviews or you just looked at the citation yeah the interview was basically about um how she so her mom her dad left her mom when they were really
really young and her mom got remarried and ended up like having more kids with him and he adopted
Chaniya and so in her documentary she I know um in the interview she was like I will always refer
to him as my dad like he was there for me like basically defending her dad but then in the documentary she was like
I grew up in a really violent household so it was contradictory contradictory okay but maybe
when she said that interview like she wasn't ready to share the actual truth and that's what
a documentary is for perhaps it was just um and then like she had brothers and she was talking about
her brothers because both of her parents ended up dying in a car crash when she was like 18 and she
became the sole provider she started singing at a casino and that's like how she kind of got in the
in the scene but she was immediately responsible for her brothers um and she kept saying her
brothers her brothers brothers like she also had sisters that's what i found out on wikipedia so i
just felt like there was a lot of um confusion my end about her upbringing. Cause it was,
it was really interesting.
Like the way she grew up,
her mom would sneak her out of the house to like sing at bars,
but you could only sing at like two in the morning when it was last call
because she was literally 12 and she couldn't be in a place that was like
serving alcohol.
Yeah.
Um,
it was really interesting.
And then once she hits it big,
like you really forget how many iconic songs she like has that,
you know,
that you grew up on.
And it really the documentary left me with like respect for Shania.
That's what a good doc should do.
She really is that bitch.
Like she's so she's queen.
Like and they had a really interesting celebrities in it.
Obviously, like Kelsey Ballerini, which made sense.
But like Diplo.
It was like weird.
OK, now I want to watch it.
I will say.
I will say, though, that like to to the plate the editing on the documentary was giving iMovie Microsoft Word paint like with font
that was like you know switch it looked like one of our patreon vlogs like I love that it was just
um on in my opinion a low production value from the editing standpoint but um and the whole time
you're like her voice when she talks like in her, you know, confessionals in the documentary, she sounds like she's on the verge of tears the entire time.
And you're like, why does she sound like that?
Then at the end, she talks about how she had Lyme disease and it literally ripped her voice from her.
Her voice like never recovered.
It's better.
Obviously, she thought she would never be able to like sing or speak.
And she can.
But it like forever changed the way that the sound of her voice sounds.
It was weird.
It was crazy.
Really good. And I just like now I'm like obsessed i followed her on instagram and i'm just like obsessed great we should see her in vegas i would love to i bet it's a real
there are so many i know people and places just add it to the list we gotta say yeah we gotta
see keith urban in vegas kelly clarkson should she choose to grace the town
with her presence carrie underwood but me and olivia when we were watching the documentary
they had footage of her show in vegas and it was wild like she had horses it was like
production value 50 how can she do a vegas show if she can't sing like she well so she can
but it's it's different but she she worked she worked, she did like, she took like years
off.
Yeah.
And the first song she came back to sing was this duet with Lionel Richie and Lionel was
in the documentary and he's like P-Jom Nation.
So it's, it's back, but it's never going to be the same.
Okay.
That's fine.
But there was like a period of time where she thought she would never sing again.
And it was like very debilitating for her emotionally.
But it made me think when I was watching those
clips of her Vegas show like there's nothing Vegas can't put together because her show was
wild like the things me and Olivia we were like Adele could like Adele would never have a live
horse because Shania is a pop star she does like big flashy no it was just I was like oh it's now
I can't think of literally a show in Vegas without thinking of Adele yeah and the excuse and the excuse yeah that isn't holding up yeah I feel that so it was a highly
recommended documentary if you're a Shania Gurley and even if you're not like you will have respect
and like talk about someone who was more sickening in like well she still is but like when she was
the it girl of the moment like she was everything like her outfits her glam she had that like classic 90s hair that was like
bouncy and curly and it was just everything it was so good like you would love it and she looked
so much like a young Fran Drescher I kept watching the documentary and like I'm like
why is Fran Drescher on this and it's Shania so good highly recommend you would love it
add it to the plate this is not my plate but add it to the plate yeah and if you're looking for
someone to watch I really um I liked it a lot.
She liked the beat.
I liked the beat.
I did.
Speaking of things I like, do you know what today is?
August 1st, Monday.

sponsor of today's episode is suma suma suma suma let me be your suma suma suma suma let me be your Thuma. Thuma, Thuma, Thuma. Let me be your Thuma.
Honestly, when you say it so many times in a song,
you start to like develop a full-blown list.
Thuma.
I know.
Like, I'm afraid it's going to stick if I keep going.
No, I know.
That's what makes it so much fun.
The power of Thuma.
The power of Thuma.
Thuma practices an intentional less is more design philosophy for the bedroom.
With clean lines, subtle curves, and lifestyle enhancing details, Thuma proves that simplicity
is the truest form of sophistication.
Introducing the bed by Thuma.
Handcrafted from eco-friendly, high quality upcycled wood, you'll find beautiful and
unique variations in the natural grain.
The minimalist design features Japanese joinery helps elevate any space.
It's super supportive for your mattress.
It's breathable and it's made to naturally minimize noise and create space. I hear that one of your
guest rooms has a Thuma. Thuma, Thuma, Thuma. Tell me about that experience. Okay. It's actually
been an amazing experience. First of all, I know we talk about Thuma every day on the toast, but
if you get the targeted ads for Thuma, which everyone does, they send to me the way that the
beds actually get put together is like so seamless and genius and probably saving marriages across the country because you don't have to fight about it like it's
so easy to put together so i got a thuma for my guest bedroom that's called snitch's room
and i got the espresso uh bed frame with the white linen headboard and i'm just like think it's such a
gorgeous look it's a snitchy vibe and it's a snitchy vibe they also it's a snitchy vibe. They also offer other bedroom essentials
to elevate bedtime,
like the nightstand,
the side table,
and the tray.
And they are perfect compliments to the bed.
So you can create that feeling
of checking into your favorite boutique hotel suite,
but at home,

you for that our first story is like some drama florence pug pugh i don't know i don't know i
think it's pugh but i don't know where I got that.
But that's, yeah, Pugue.
Okay.
Florence Pugh is unhappy over Olivia Wilde and Harry Styles' affair, a source said.
Have you seen this?
I have seen people speculating that she's not on good terms with them because she's
barely promoted the movie.
And she's an actress who promotes her own movies, you know?
Yeah.
And so they're actually all going to be on the Venice Film Festival carpet in a few weeks
promoting the movie, so we'll see then.
But sources are saying that Florence
is not happy with Olivia.
This is what the source said, quote,
I can tell you for a fact that Flo seeing Olivia and Harry
all over each other on set,
Olivia and Harry all over each other.
Is literally auntie and nephew love.
Incest, it's Jon Snow.
Not incest, disgusting, it's love.
Jon Snow and Daenerys yeah i can tell
you for a fact that flo seeing olivia and harry all over each other on set did not go down well
as olivia was still with jason when she first hooked up with harry one insider told page six
at the time at the time of jason sudeikis and olivia wilde split sources cited olivia wilde's
relationship with harry styles is the main reason for the split with one insider telling page six that the affair with Harry had been ongoing for
a month leaving Jason Sudeikis distraught and so I guess Florence Pugh is upset over what she saw
on set and adultery okay can I just say that I'm really not the biggest fan of Olivia Wilde and
Harry mostly because I'm jealous um but like no it's
giving Florence yeah Florence is giving like Karen energy like okay do I endorse adultery no but like
calm the fuck down she's giving like moral superiority yeah well I feel like it's a few
things first of all does she know Jason Sudeikis like personally right that's her uncle or something
like get out uncle why does
she care so much agreed but I also feel like and I can't speak for Florence I don't know her if it
were me though all I can say like I'm starring in a movie with Harry Styles we're about the same age
we're both single of course or is she she's dating the Zach Braff the doctor from Scrubs yeah yeah
and anyways I'm starting a movie with Harry Styles.
If there's going to be an on-set romance, I'm hoping it's me.
Of course.
If he starts dating the married director, I'm going to take Umbridge with that.
And by the way, they were engaged, not married.
So I do believe the rumors that Florence Pugh is butthurt about something.
And I honestly did not think it was as simple as this.
Because this is really kind of weird.
It's not your business, to be completely frank and to stop talking to everyone and not
promote the movie because like you even if you've been personally affected by infidelity like it's
not your fucking business so I was hoping for more there and maybe the source is like not 100%
informed maybe they're not but the and I know you can't like trust sources especially like anonymous
sources talk to media outlets but like hers I'm assuming this source is a woman,
I don't know why,
saying I can tell you for a fact
that Flo,
seeing Olivia,
like close enough to call her Flo.
I didn't know her friends
called her Flo.
But that is something
that like a fake source
would think about,
you know,
like.
Well,
she didn't say live.
Because if I was selling,
you know,
a fact about you to the media,
which don't put it past me,
I would do that in a desperate time.
I would say,
I can tell you for a fact, Jax is not Harry's mom. That's what I'd
say. Okay. I'd say there's more there. Look into it. But would you say for, I could tell you for a
fact? I mean, that is like a weird way of phrasing something. It's a very conversational. I don't
know. Like I definitely agree that there's, Florence is mad about something,. I don't know. Like I definitely agree that there's Florence is mad
about something, but I don't know if I would take everything this source says like a hundred percent
face value. It's, it's giving, it's giving lies. Who could the source be? Someone who worked on
the movie. Okay. If someone who worked on the movie wouldn't, maybe they wouldn't know the
truth. So it's either someone from Florence's camp, in which case, why would they say something
not true like this? And it wouldn't be someone either someone from Florence's camp, in which case, why would they say something not true like this?
And it wouldn't be someone from Olivia and Harry's camp,
like shining light on the infidelity.
Well, so that's the other thing about this
that I wanted to talk about.
I guess I don't really think about,
you know, their relationship that much,
but it wasn't my understanding
that this relationship is what broke her
and Jason Sudeikis up.
I thought they'd been like separated for a while.
So did I, but apparently not.
Like it's possible that like this was the straw that made Olivia leave but I don't think she was never
thinking about leaving met Harry and bounced like I think things were bad and then she started to
fall for someone else like that's typically what happens so that's not infidelity by the way yeah
well there was a quote from um you can't break up a happy marriage 100 that's from like housewives that's margaret joseph's it's by the way it's so true you can't break up a happy
marriage jason um but i feel like jason sedagus like did come out on top afterwards like with
ted lasso and then he kind of became like a victim and everyone felt bad for him and isn't he dating
someone now like a young girly yeah and i don't think like the people like in the public like
particularly like Olivia Wilde
As it pertains to her relationship with Harry Styles
You think so?
I mean I know Harry's fans do not like her
Well I know the Harry's fans are jealous
Yeah
But I feel like overall people are obsessed with them
I feel like people are obsessed with them
Oh I don't feel that that's funny maybe they are I don't feel that way
Maybe it's like an obsession not necessarily meaning we love them but we just like can't look away
I think perhaps a lot of women with kids like are inspired by her because isn't that just
the dream, you know?
Yeah.
You get to raise your kids with like the stable guy and then.
And who's also like your kids' idol.
Yeah.
And who's also like handsome.
Yeah.
But then like when things start to get rocky rocky you fall into the arms of a pop star
right i'm sorry and that's where i said who's your kids is idol right who's your kids is idol
yeah but like you had a great partner for like the hard part and then like things you know when
the kids get older things start to get easier and then like you fall into the arms of literally the
biggest rock star in the world that's like kim and pete a little bit right but i don't think
people find kim relatable but i think people might find Olivia Wilde relatable. Why? There's just like an aura of Kim. I find Kim more relatable just because she shares
more. I couldn't find Olivia Wilde. I mean, I don't follow her, so I can't critique how much
she shares, but I just feel like I don't have a peek inside her life. So how can I relate to it?
No, totally. But I think we're like a little bit more in pop culture than others. Like,
like we're a little too in the weeds like I think for the
most part people love Kim but I don't think they would say she's relatable but we consume everything
she puts out so we know that she is do you know what I mean yeah and I think on the surface she
doesn't seem relatable right the gorgeous glam and that but once you get to know her like she
is like the way she talks about like her struggles with her weight like I find like I completely
agree with you yeah but I just don't think most people who are outside of our obsession with pop culture
would say, like, who's the celebrity you relate to, Kim Kardashian?
You know what I mean?
Who's the celebrity that you relate to?
Probably.
Marilyn Monroe?
No.
Probably.
Let me think.
Let me think about this.
Yeah.
It's a good question.
Yeah.
So give me a real answer.
I'm going to think, too.
It does depend on where I'm at in my life just want to say but that's like what
influencers are for right they're meant to be actually relatable yeah i don't know what celebrity
i relate to because like who is hilarious gorgeous stunning honestly nobody you know Oh you know what celebrity
I relate to
Myself
Because I'm famous
In my own mind
I thought you were going
To take the time to answer
No at first I was trying
To think of a joke
Like a supermodel
But then I'm like
Okay like
That's not funny
Like
And then I was actually
Thinking like a real answer
But honestly
I don't scroll through
Social media and be like
Wow this celebrity is relatable
I don't think I've actually
Ever had that thought
In my life
Really
Yeah
I feel like
There's no one celebrity That I think is the relatable celebrity.
And when there is, I think then it's like false.
It's PR, Busy Phillips.
Like it's giving-
Chrissy Teigen.
Yeah, it's giving press.
But there are celebrities who have moments that I find relatable.
Of course, of course.
Like when they actually share something that's like-
Like Kylie on the treadmill.
Right.
Like she's having a hard time.
Right, right, right.
Yeah.
Okay, cool.
Glad we unpacked that.
But I do feel like there's more to this Florence Flo story.
And actually, I'm curious what the deal is.
I think that it's this.
If there was going to be someone who was going to romance Harry Styles on the set of this
movie, it was going to be me.
It was going to be the hot new actress in town.
You cheated.
Yeah, on me.
Yeah.
Yeah, I agree.
And you cheated me.
Yeah, 100%.
I'm not saying that's how flow
feels i'm saying that's how i would feel right this was supposed to be like my press relationship
my moment yeah like we fell in love on set that made the movie amazing right not like he's looking
behind the camera at the director the whole time it's what about me right what about me what about
my needs what about flow 100 are you ready for our next story? Yeah. Exciting news. Dwayne Johnson is tweezing Bad Blood Taylor's version on TikTok.
Have you seen this?
He's tweezing?
That's not what I said.
I said teasing.
You said tweezing.
I'm pretty sure I said teasing.
You said tweezing.
It's fine.
Okay, I'll remember this.
I'll remember.
He's teasing that Bad Blood Taylor's version is going to be on his new movie,
DC League of Super
Pets with Kevin Hart who then Kevin teased that Message in a Bottle Taylor's version is also going
to be on the movie. Okay I fucking love Message in a Bottle um and this is so Taylor like I feel
like now that her songs are being re-released and she is trying to like own them more she's putting her uh new ethically sourced music in so many other um projects
projects like she's actually it's a lot of like kids cartoon movies like that's where the money
is that's where the money is and you know what i love that for her like love love love um message
in a bottle such a good song and anything involving the rock me and ben were actually
having like a conversation with the rock about the rock yesterday because Ben said he thinks that um like the rock is going to run for office
and like he's such a good business person like he would be great and everyone loves him yada yada
yada and I'm like okay for sure for sure but like when I think of the and by the way I like the rock
this is not like a negative thing about the rock but when I think about the rock like I don't think
like genius business person do you know maybe he is a genius business person
but I would say that he's like the top of his field in the acting business realm in terms of
like obviously he's a good actor but also choosing the right project right and he and Ben was telling
me like being like the guy and having a great image Ben was telling me like all these company
he's a part of because he has a tequila company that Ben says kills it I had never heard of it
and all these different like a power drink or something and i'm like no for sure like he's a really um like smart
celebrity when it comes to like his money and things to invest in but like i wouldn't think
of him as like an amazing businessman no that's that's not what comes to mind like a household
name family friendly great brand great image great actor nice guy probably yeah okay so i'm glad you
agree with me yeah but that Has nothing to do
With whether or not
He would be a good
Candidate for office
For office
Yeah no I think
That was like
But what people
Are saying is like
Great businessman
I'm like really
That's just not
What comes to mind
For me
Yeah
Just like a thought
But it's nice to know
About his business ventures
Yeah no Ben is always
Talking about his
Tequila company
Like because they
Sell like crazy
Amounts of cases per year
Yeah like I feel like
Ashton Kutcher is like
Actor but great businessman.
Yeah, I think when I, you know, funny enough,
when Dwayne Johnson, I think that about Kevin Hart,
especially after watching his documentary,
like you realize how every project he does,
like he owns the production company that does it.
He owns the car service company that drives him to the,
like he owns everything.
That's so funny.
That's like Reese.
Exactly.
Love that.
Yeah, but back to this story so
taylor's putting her music in taylor's also been in the news quite a bit is that story do you know
what i'm talking about okay this jets yeah that's not a story so this twisted like and i'm and by
the way i am like taylor swift denier till i die so take that with a grain of salt but like this
is actually how i feel this like completely unreliable like piece of shit like student uk tabloid released some data that they concocted themselves in a cauldron
that um a list of the celebrities in the world who you know pollute the climate the most with
their jets and because everyone's been talking about kylie recently taking 10 minute flights
instead of driving 30 minutes but the truth is those 10 minute flights are to park her jet at
the hangar there's no way to know that for sure. But like, I've thought that that's what
it was. That's what everyone was saying. And I'm pretty sure like something with Drake and he
confirmed that. Yeah, by the way, for sure. But there's also no like full confirmation that Kylie
didn't take a 10 minute flight instead of just driving 45 minutes to downtown, you know? Okay.
So it's been in the conversational in the news a lot, like just celebrities, like, you know,
not caring about the environment with their jets, which is true personally.
Like, I don't really care.
Like if you're a celebrity who's going to tell me not to use plastic straws and then
you're getting on your jet, like that, I take umbrage.
Like I never want to see Adrian on a jet in his life.
If he ever flies private, like he will, he'd be hearing from me because I am, I am doing
my part without the plastic straws.
I am, but you're not.
Yeah. I agree with you. So if you're going to be be like a climate girly this is like where it applies to like leonardo dicaprio megan and harry like big climate girlies who are these are full of
contradictions right who are full like really like taking planes the most like remember when
leonardo dicaprio flew jet blue mint as like press, because he was getting so, he was at like UNICEF at the UN being like climate, climate, climate.
And then literally the way he got home from that climate UNICEF event was on his plane. Like
that, that shit really bothers me, but whatever, I digress. So this, I don't even know what the
website's called, but like, it's a wholly unreliable website that released this article.
Here are the celebrities who are, you know, contributing the worst, the most bad amount to the environment
with their planes.
And obviously everyone was like, Kylie, Kylie, Kylie.
But then number one turned out to be Taylor Swift.
And Kylie didn't even crack the top 10, correct?
There was definitely a Kardashian on there.
I don't know, actually.
I guess if you put the whole family together.
The only piece of information that like really made its way out
was the fact that Taylor Swift was number one.
And so her fans are quaking.
The memes are flooding in.
The memes are flooding. And like, it's very possible Taylor Swift Swift was number one. And so her fans are quaking. Now the memes are flooding in. The memes are flooding.
And like, it's very possible Taylor Swift
is the number one, you know, climate abuser.
But why are we all just believing this random,
unverified, janky website?
Like it's fact.
Yeah.
Since when?
Like I never heard of this.
It says a marketing firm, Yard, compiled the list
using data from a Twitter account called Celebrity Jets,
which imports from the ADS-B exchange,
which is the largest public source of unfiltered flight data.
It was a research study with information from Twitter.
Oh, then it has to be true.
I want to see the list.
Taylor's rep did respond basically saying like,
Taylor, by the way, I think Taylor has multiple planes.
And that Taylor charters, like she doesn't fly half of those flights.
She makes money on her plane by chartering it out to other rich people.
So she's not responsible for every single mile.
That's a good group post.
Every single omission.
Even if she's given like one flight away, she could say that no and i'm sure she does
and by the way i know she has like one major big plane that has like 13 written everywhere it's
like sewn into the seats i don't think a lot of people charter that plane but i know she has
she owns a bunch of hangers in nashville she makes a lot of money from her planes because
they're really expensive to keep up she's another celebrity who i would say is like incredibly um
business savvy yes like she owns the production companies that produce her
music videos like she's one of those celebrities yeah celebrity um so yeah this the story just like
bothered me because and you know what i will say like at least taylor is not like patronizing all
of us with like instagram posts about how we all need to stop living wasteful lives.
Like bitch, look at them.
Shorter showers, colder showers, use that water for coffee and eat bugs.
Right.
Like that shit bothers me.
Like look in the mirror, look in the mirror.
Like every celebrity who's posting about climate change, like you literally have to fly commercial.
Like that should be a rule.
No, you have to take a sailboat.
Yeah.
Like it's so hypocritical.
So it's possible Taylor is actually the number one contributor
even though I just like have a hard time believing it because she doesn't even do she doesn't even
work ever like she's always just chilling you know so how much can she actually be flying
if most of the time she's chilling at home like especially recently she's only been working like
a couple times a year so I don't know if I really believe that but even if that's true I'm grateful
she's not like one of the celebrities she's like always yelling at us to do more.
Yes.
Okay, so here's the list.
Okay.
Taylor's number one, allegedly.
Number two is Floyd Mayweather.
Okay.
Okay.
Number three is Jay-Z.
Number four is A-Rod.
Number five is Blake Shelton.
Number six, Steven Spielberg.
Seven, Kim, even though she just got her plane. Right. She must be doing. Actually, that makes sense.
She's always on the move. Yeah. Next is Mark Wahlberg.
Then Oprah and then Travis Scott. Top ten.
I'm just trying to think of like any of these celebrities are
real environment activists, but none of them really come to mind.
I think all celebrities are.
Yes, but some are more passionate than others.
The biggest ones.
When I think, I really think of Leonardo DiCaprio,
Meghan and Harry.
Yeah.
And Adrian Grenier, obviously.
So it does make me feel better.
Like, I can't stand that shit.
It's hypocrisy.
It's like, everyone, let's turn off our light bulbs
for 35 minutes.
Like, some of us have to go to work, okay? We can't can't turn off our light bulbs yeah some of us have to film a show
we need lighting some of us are just ugly are you ready for our next story

your curds that's why i don't have my curds because you and olivia don't have i have printers

I got you.
Oh my God.
Sorry.
Theo just scared me.
I don't know what he's doing.

Are you ready for our next story?
Some drama already. Beyonce dropped a new album on Friday called Renaissance.
Have you seen the drama? And she's being slammed. But it ain't your face?
No, she's being slammed by fans and disability charity Scope for including
the ableist slur that Lizzo just dropped from her song.
Beyonce, like have you learned nothing? So Beyonce has been called out by disability
equality charity Scope for using an ableist slur on her new song heated this comes just weeks after Lizzo apologized for
using the same word on her song girls and had her track re-recorded so Beyonce has the lyrics in her
song um I'm not gonna say them because I value my career my job I love this show so um I thought
you were gonna say because people are
like citing this one like lyric from one of the Beyonce songs it must be the cash because it ain't
your face um and people think that's her like calling Jay-z ugly and rich oh and everyone's
using the song like for um like jokey meme types and it's really funny I didn't know that she used
that this s-word and I have to imagine of course, Beyonce doesn't keep up with the news and know that
this happened to Lizzo.
But I am sure one of the people who works with her, either a producer, helped songwriter,
someone on her team, they know about it.
I think they know.
And I think Beyonce definitely, before she put this out, knew that it was a trigger,
not a trigger, a controversial word, and decided to stick with it. So I don't think we'll be seeing a re-release like lizzo did like beyonce made a
decision and she's telling everyone they could fuck off yeah no i think the choice was made i
don't think that she i'm sure i'm sure she keeps up enough even if beyonce like didn't necessarily
know the story like the people on her team did like pr people do you know many people yeah chosen
i'm sure they said to beyonce like just so you know, here's a backstory about the
word.
And she said, leave the word.
So obviously don't say the word, but like, what's the context?
What's the lyric?
Okay.
So the word is S star star.
Everyone knows.
No, they don't.
Last time we were talking about it, there was a post like, what word are you guys talking
about?
Okay.
Okay.
S star star Z.
And the middle letters are pa and the word can mean to freak out or go crazy in the u.s but it's very widely known that
it comes from the word spastic so it says bleep on that ass bleep on that ass got it so she wants
you to go wild on that ass yeah that's some good advice by the way um you to go wild on that ass. Yeah. That's some good advice, by the way. You should go wild on that ass.
Okay, like, I don't know.
I feel like Beyonce really can do no wrong for a lot of people.
So I don't really feel like this is going to have legs.
The thing with Beyonce is, like, nobody cares.
We're just grateful for the music.
We're grateful for the-
No, and she puts out an album.
It's a work of art.
It's a masterpiece, yeah.
There's no editing the art. What is she take the track off of the itunes and spotify
no that's also not beyonce's like vibe like she puts out work and then she goes back
into under her shell like she doesn't interact publicly she doesn't really do social media
so i don't think she really gives a shit and like these things happen and they pass so quickly
and i think people's overall sentiment is like they're just excited about the album yeah but I
don't it's an interesting precedent for the word because now it's like we can't use it because
Lizzo set the precedent and changed it so we were all like okay this word is officially out but then
Beyonce who is you know obviously more influential than Lizzo only in the sense that she's you know
more famous and been around for longer um Beyonce said it was okay so I don't know I personally am just like staying away from it
because it's not a word I really ever use it's not going to be one that I have to like stop saying
um it's kind of like we said this the last time it's like kind of like a loser-y word like
to to use like when you're using it in that context like there's just better words you can
use like go ape shit I don't know. You know what I mean?
So my life remains unaffected,
which is really all I care about.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But I just care about the precedent and now precedent me is confused.
Yeah.
No, you're precedented for sure.
Like you're always looking to precedent for,
you know, guidance.
Yeah.
The precedent has been contradicted.
So I guess it's just do what you think is best.
I like that precedent.
Right. I like that for precedent. I think it's more do what you think is best i like that precedent right i like
that for precedent i think it's more clear in countries that aren't america like whether the
word is good or bad and here it's just like extremely confusing yeah anyways oh you should
know i didn't know that that's so interesting our next story the cma awards are on november 9th and
we have our hosts i'm looking at your ipad is that peyton Manning? Luke Bryan and Peyton Manning are hosting the Country Music Awards in November.
Will we be on the red carpet?
Who knows?
We'll have to see if it conflicts with any of my tour dates.
And if you're able to get away from Roldy.
Yeah.
I would love to.
Yeah.
Well, that's like good.
Every time we do this story every year.
It reminds us.
The hosts come up in like August, September. And it reminds us like we need to get on our stuff i actually really like peyton manning
being selected as a um host because and i think a lot of people would be like what the fuck this
random like football player but he's actually extremely entertaining like i think one of his um
snl episodes is like widely regarded as one of the better like maybe even the best hosting jobs ever definitely by any professional athlete he's like
super funny and entertaining like good at reading teleprompters I think he will be good I think
he'll be good too and Luke Bryan is like a tv darling these days yeah don't slander him no I'm
not I love Luke Bryan recently like come to love him I love him I think he's
great on American Idol I like his music enough I just feel like and this is my personal problem
with country music is like the like the biggest male stars in country music they're just like
statues like they don't move it's like Blake Shelton Jason Aldean and Luke Bryan like every
year it's the same three people um there's more but yeah
but now it's like I don't when I think of the biggest male country stars like those three people
don't even come to my Blake Shelton like it's Luke Holmes it's Morgan Wallen like it's these younger
more like not like outliers but these are they're just like so conventional these original three
and I just don't feel like they really represent country music anymore okay
sure we could have that argument about like the entertainer of the year right but when it comes
to hosting like I don't think Luke Holmes wants to host the CMAs no no and he's far too famous to do
that yeah but like Luke Bryan has pivoted in his career to be like a singer but also a TV personality
yeah but don't you feel like this is like a step down I just feel like it's a lot of really hard
work for someone who has reached a level
where he doesn't need to work that hard anymore.
Right.
You know?
And like it's a,
a lot of hosting is like a thankless job.
But I also think like in country music
and in the CMAs,
it's a room of your friends.
Mm-hmm.
And it's not as like.
High stakes.
It's not a room of people sitting around
with pitchforks like it is in Hollywood.
Right, right.
It's just a fun, good time.
Yeah, it's like a family evening. And he works
with ABC on American Idol. Like there's a country music award on ABC. Like it's gonna be
yeah. Yeah. I guess that's true. I'm just like I don't know. I'm just like
not like other country fans you know.
Yeah. That's just a little bit about me. No I like this. And then I also think adding
Peyton Manning like gives it the little flair.
And it's so American.
Like, yeah, I like I think Peyton Manning is a great choice.
And I think he's really funny and personable and he'll do a good job.
And I agree.
Like, I think the the environment at the CMA Awards is very much like a friendly environment.
It's like welcoming.
So it shouldn't be like too high stakes for anyone.
Yeah.
So that's why I don't think I think it's a pleasure probably to host and what happened to just like every year it being
Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley I mean I don't know I feel like for Carrie like why would Carrie
Underwood want to work that hard except that like every year she just like did the most and was the
best and the most gorgeous in every outfit and that must be fun too yeah but country music is interesting because like let's say it was the
grammys and they had taylor swift hosts like the gram like the hosting job at traditional award
shows is like it's like a step down from the people who actually win the awards like if you're
hosting that's because you're not a contender or i mean as what it should be what it used to be is
like a host is a different job from being a performer which I think is better and it's usually comedians yeah but in country it's always like Kelsey
Ballerini does it it's like it's always like huge stars who are also up for awards yes but we say
this we've been saying this more and more with like new hosting announcements coming out it's
like it used to be a job like you were a host or you were an actor or you were a singer and now
like the singers and actors are the hosts.
Right.
Pushing out the hosts.
But then also we complain at the same time that the people who are hosting these things
are doing a terrible job.
It's like bring back the hosts.
Yeah.
No, I don't think having people host who are also eligible for awards that night or who
are on the same level as people who are nominated.
I don't think that that is the right choice.
Like I think hosts should be hosts.
Right, but also it's like what we said
about Laverne Cox doing the e-red carpet.
Yeah, and I'll give everyone a chance.
And now having seen like,
I think maybe it's two award seasons of her work,
like it's not the right job for her.
She's not particularly good at it.
It's just not.
And that's not me being critical.
That's just facts.
Yeah, I don't think the audience loved it either.
No, and I would be surprised if she returns whenever her contract is up.
Also, so random, but speaking of like pop culture, are you following this Netflix lawsuit
against the TikTokers?
No.
So I think I've spoken about these girlies before.
I actually really like them.
I follow them on TikTok.
They're two separate girls, Barlow and Bear.
But when Abigail Barlow and Emily Bear, but when they work together they're like a duo barlow and bear never
even heard of them and they wrote yes you have they wrote the unofficial bridgerton musical
like via tiktok like they literally just started writing and one of them is a composer one of them
is a songwriter okay so they put out like all these it went so viral bridgerton the musical
i don't know if you remember they um did song after song and they actually ended up with like
a completely fully composed album went viral people loved it they got nominated for a grammy
and they won and now they've kind of been on like this recent press tour just like performing the
bridgerton songs they did i think at the kennedy center so the bridgerton songs it's like songs
about bridgerton yeah it's like if bridgerton was a musical so it's like if this is what you call a honeymoon pacing around our separate rooms running from our elaborate rooms we're doomed like
it's like like great rege jean-paul and phoebe denver like if they were in the hotel room like
what would they have sung you know yeah cool and it was really good songs whatever they won the the grammy it was like such a big deal and now netflix is suing them for so it was our understanding as
you know followers that netflix had approved or like they had gotten a license like the album was
not made nefariously like it was fine but now they're doing performances of the musical using
the bridger tim like name and likeness and um Netflix had sent
them like a cease and desist about it and they ignored it and now Netflix is like fully suing
them it's like two regular girls are being sued by Netflix yeah that's crazy but you can't use
the Bridgerton name and likeness and monetize it and go on a tour especially after they sang
the cease and desist yeah they should have listened to the cease and desist but I thought
that I think they thought like netflix is billion dollar corporation
it's never gonna go after two little girls that's really crazy the thing about netflix that i've
learned is like they're extremely petty like they will go after two little girls and i guess netflix
owns the rights to the name bridgerton not that author good question good question i don't know
it's just an interesting Like legal story
Unfolding on TikTok
It's like if someone
Was running around
Doing morning toast
The musical
And like at first
It's like cute
And it's promoting
The show so sure
But then they start
Like selling and trading
Yeah no
Cease and desist
100%
They're wrong for the
Live performance part
But I also think like
Netflix should have
Like leaned into it
A little bit more
Especially because By the time they were Filming second season The album was out Like this has been Going on for a while And Netflix should have like leaned into it a little bit more, especially because by the time they were filming second season,
the album was out.
Like this has been going on for a while and they should have like used one of
the songs,
at least like instrumentally in one.
Like I thought they should have leaned into it more.
They have their own thing going on.
Like,
yeah,
there's a lot going on in Bridgerton.
No,
for sure.
But like,
they could have done like a separate show,
but someone should actually put it on Broadway.
Totally.
Bridgerton the musical.
Totally.
Totally. In collaboration with Netflix. And it's really good. Totally. Bridgerton the musical. Totally, totally.
In collaboration with Netflix.
And it's really good.
Like the music is actually like stellar.
It sounds really good.
It won a Grammy.
It sounds really good what you just sang to me.
Yeah, no, it is.
That's like obviously the only part that I know
because that's the part that went like super viral on TikTok
and then the album did too.
Sing to me, Paolo.
All you have to do is ask.
Are you ready for our fifth and final story?
Just one subject that we can't quit
and it is our human interest story.
So we're going to be talking about the lottery
because a single man in Illinois won the lottery last week,
the over billion dollars.
And I was a little confused
because they keep saying a single man.
So I'm like, is he not married
or he wasn't part of a group?
But we came to the conclusion
that it probably means
that it just means that like one singular ticket as opposed to multiple tickets winning right
I mean it was definitely heartbreaking for millions of people including myself around the
country I think it's a disgrace honestly I definitely think it's rigged I'm super happy
for the guy who won but obviously like it Alexa play That Should Be Me by Justin Bieber.
Like, that should be me.
It really should.
Yeah.
So People Magazine has put together like a list of do's and don'ts of lottery winners based on prior winners' experiences.
But also, have they actually told us like who the man is?
No.
Have you seen a picture?
No.
And also in eight states, there is lottery anonymity laws.
That you're allowed to stay anonymous.
So I think he must be in one of those eight states and we might never know.
So if you won the lottery and they said like you can remain anonymous or not.
Well, I would do it for the content like and I would share.
I would too.
But then I think like everyone knowing that I have a billion dollars in the bank would
make me a target.
I actually think I would stay anonymous.
So it's very possible that actually I did win.
It's possible that I did win and I'll never tell you. single man in Illinois yeah it's possible but like if I win the lottery honestly
like I'd never tell anyone except for you obviously like I'm like my friend like sit here do the show
every day with like the secret brewing you can't even like keep together a secret project no I know
but like this is about my safety like if everyone knew i had a billion
dollars like people would just start like tracking me people are crazy it would be like 460 million
by the way when you do the lump sum and taxes yeah for sure for sure you wouldn't be a billionaire
no but then i would so why 400 why wouldn't they start go track an actual billionaire because an
actual billionaire has been so wealthy for so long that like they have security measures in place right but i'm vulnerable because i i'm a new billionaire and
i don't know exactly like where to put the security cameras you know yeah that's the things that that
keep me up at night you're still not a billionaire though i just want you to know just in a few years
i would be because i would be smart unlike some of the people you're about to list market is tanking
no for sure but like i would i would be investing wisely. I would be, um,
like I would, I would not spend most of the money that I want and I would put it in like
a high interest yielding. So like every year I'd be making like tens of millions of dollars just
like by doing nothing. Okay. So don't worry about me. Okay. That's good. Well, here are some do's
and don'ts in case you are the single man in Illinois who won the billion dollars. It's
actually not a billion dollars.
Sorry to tell you.
Do.
Follow your dreams.
Whoever said you can't buy happiness
must have had some inexpensive hobbies.
For down on his luck,
cowboy Neil Wanless,
a $232 million Powerball winner in 2009,
it allowed him to live comfortably
while pursuing his passions.
At 23 years old,
he bought a nearly 50,000 acre ranch in South Dakota and in 2020 he
told Wall Street Journal that he stayed grounded thanks to the rewarding challenges of life on the
range oh my god I love that because you always hear like the worst stories here's one of the
worst when 19 year old Jonathan Vargas and so this is don't related to Elizabeth Lynn Vargas
perhaps this is don't dream Recklessly. Okay.
He won $35 million Powerball Prize in 2008, and he listened to his heart and invested in his dreams.
In 2010, he created Restlicious Takedown,
an all-female wrestling TV show
in which he appeared under the persona JV Rich.
It ceased production following one season,
and he withdrew from the public eye
and expressed
some regret for spending his endeavors. Okay see the thing is is like you can dream big when you
win 1.3 billion but like 35 million it would be surprise you how easy it is to run through 35
million dollars. You know what I mean? Especially on a tv show of like female wrestlers. Like I'm
embarrassed for that man. Like I really am. Like he should be ashamed. ashamed do higher guidance you can't win money management
skills in the lottery so Forbes suggests that finding a team of advisors is a key move in
holding on to the jackpot agreed but there are also money managers who will steal your money
right and I imagine that when you win the lottery like you are inundated and you're a target for a
money manager it's like attorneys and money and business managers who might have good intentions
and might not.
Yeah, so I would do your due diligence or have like two people managing your money
so they can keep an eye on each other.
Yeah.
Don't be too generous.
Expect everyone you've ever met to reach out
if your lotto ticket lucks out,
but with a price tag attached to each, congratulations.
Irish winner Peter Lavery,
who won around 12.8 million U.S. dollars, proves that
indeed the road to wealth is not paved with good intentions. Over 20 years after his big win,
he is still rich and said that he has received thousands of letters asking for financial support.
He said, burn them. Ignore them. Don't open anything if you don't know who it's from.
Right, because of course it's going to pull at your heartstrings.
And that's why if he had remained anonymous,
he wouldn't have had that problem.
Wow.
Do give wisely.
Do.
Da-do.
True.
Da-do.
The best way to give is to give back.
Pledging money to charities puts you in control of the amount,
your anonymity, and for the most part,
where that donation will end up do stay anonymous if possible such a large sum of money is bound to
grab public attention and in some states you are legally obligated to disclose your name like i
said and don't be conspicuous if you can't stay anonymous then it's best to keep your lifestyle
low-key that's a double entendre not
don't be conspicuous don't colon be conspicuous oh oh don't don't be conspicuous conspicuous is
low key right inconspicuous is low key okay now i, now I'm like, my brain is shumbled. Basically, like, stay out of public life.
Yeah, so Billy Bob Harold Jr. won $20 million in 1997,
two decades before his home state of Texas passed a bill permitting lottery anonymity.
And the 47-year-old was incessantly hounded for money.
He changed his phone number several times during the 20 months that it took to lose his fortune.
How much was the fortune?
$20 million.
A million dollars a month?
That's terrible.
And it was in 1997,
so a million dollars was worth a lot more.
Was a lot more, yeah.
And I just feel like there's always been this stigma
of people from the lottery
obviously running through their money
and whenever anyone wins,
they're like, I'm gonna be different.
No, and it's like, that could never be me.
Right, cut to 20 months later.
More often than not,
Claudia's like yelling at me every time I put something on the middle like we have this gorgeous table in front of us it's the
centerpiece of our entire studio and jackie keeps wanting to take dumps and like put her coffee and
her ipad and her lip gloss and her phone you're being olivia take i know i've been living at
olivia's house for too long i'm starting to exaggerate like her um i think more often than
not people do squander their good fortune it would but i and i know
everyone says it but it will not be me when i went like it wouldn't be you because you are
extremely fiddly conservative yeah i am not cheap conservative
what sound is that oh my god i thought that was like the door creaking open. Do you think it was Bryce? Do it again. Oh my God.
I can't even make that sound.
I was like, Magnolia?
Is that you?
Those are the past five stories, and you 100,000% needed to know them.
You needed to know.
I felt really good about them.
I've been picking the stories while I've been pumping, which gives me a hard 30 minutes
of uninterrupted story picking time.
I love that.
And I actually had seven that I whittled down to five.
Ooh, an embarrassment of riches. Yeah. Much like the lottery winners.
Well, the show's not over because it's Monday and we have Unburden Yourselves, which is
our Monday segment where you can write in and just basically
tell us what you're embarrassed about. Like hand over your burden. I have a funny
idea for a show. I just want to throw in there. Oh, sure. So it's like someone finds
that they know the town at the Illinois single man and and they're like oh my gosh single man hosted by patty stanger
so they go to the show or it can be like a schitt's creek like comedy style show they go to
the town and they're like i'm gonna this single man and like they said they think they know who
it is and they spend all their time and efforts on the wrong person right meanwhile like they're
you know they become best friends with the actual winner
who won't tell anyone.
But even though that is Schitt's Creek,
because at the end of Schitt's Creek,
you find out that Twyla won $90 million in the lottery.
Oh, true.
I forgot about that part.
I didn't steal the plot from Schitt's Creek.
I like my version.
Me too, me too.
And I like the little twist I added too.
Yeah, like that's a really good sitcom idea.
Free idea.
I'm not going to make it.
Toad Studios can't take it on right now.
Free idea.
We're putting it out in the ether and it's all yours yeah just don't don't fuck it up
oh also um spoiler alert RuPaul's Drag Race RuPaul's Drag Race winner announced um I did
accidentally spoil it for myself but I don't care because I was so thrilled with the winner
um James Monsoon I wanted her to win I believed in her from the very okay that's a lie like at first i was like why was she cast but then once i really saw the
power of the monsoon i was so happy and i just want to say like i was right and i am overjoyed
and you were wrong more importantly i that's totally fine by me yeah no and i was right so
i just think that's important you know that i was right that you were right about the show that you
watch right that i don't like yeah yeah you should be no i'm gonna take the w's important, you know? That I was right. That you were right about the show that you watch.
Right.
That I don't.
Yeah, yeah.
You should be.
No, I'm going to take the W however I can, you know?
Yeah, yeah.
A win is a win, no matter how you slice it.
I like that we like put our votes in, you know,
because then we had something.
We had skin in the game.
Steak, steak.
Yeah.
Okay, so I was actually saying something
before you interrupted me.
Sorry, I just had to get my show idea out there.

are you ready to unburden yourself i'm ready you want to read them today i'm having like
poor eyesight i can't explain as long as like you won't call me out no by the way an unwritten slash
unspoken rule of the toast is like we can make fun of each other for pronouncing things differently
unless it's in an ad or a dear toasters or like which is an unfair rule because you read those
and what i read is not part of the rule i didn't say it was a fair rule i just said it was a rule
i think it should apply to fast five stories those are sacred too by the way do they not apply to fast five stories you just call me out for saying dwayne johnson
tweezers okay we'll officially include that under the umbrella so many times i read the story and
you sit there like okay by the way wait for me to finish i never thought about that you're 100%
right like fast five reading is also it is sacred it's it should be i think all reading is off limits
100 oh my god just trying our best imagine if you're in class and you're reading out loud in
the class and you mispronounce something it's disgusting one of the kids was like tweezers
cosmetics yeah okay first up hi jackson claude oh claude with an e like claude monet claude claude i absolutely
love the toast and your florida vibes are immaculate thank you so much girly okay so i'm
a pta mom and we had a school auction that was themed neon nights everyone wore neon colors and
glow sticks and anything glow in the dark i was new to the school and super excited to be at this
event needless to say i went a little overboard with group shots and stayed out way too late i vaguely remember dancing with other people's
husbands but not much after that fast forward to the morning i wake up and only my glow sticks my
pjom husband brought me home of course i threw up so he undressed me and put me in the bed
had the absolute worst anxiety on sunday going to school drop off that monday carried a little
more stress than normal our school community is awesome though and so fun so no one said anything I'll never forget the
naked glow stick shame well thanks for unburdening me keep Florida toast going love you too okay I
just want to say like I was a little worried until you said your husband was there and your husband
like wasn't as drunk as you like he will protect you so honestly I don't think you could have done
anything that bad also you said like that's the vibe of like the school community so you probably weren't like the worst one there and
some lessons like truly do need to be learned the hard way like you'll just remember the way you
feel the next time you want to get blacked out at PTA night you know right but a few things like
first of all any PTA that's seen as neon nights is trying to get rowdy it's true they're trying
to get rowdy yeah and they every party needs a good party animal like so that was you it's turn they're trying to get rowdy yeah and they every party needs a good party animal like
so that was you it's just crazy that you would think that like once you're a pta mom like
your crazy days are behind you crazy days are behind you like moral hangovers anxiety is behind
you and no like you could always still be that girl and that's actually a promising message and
i feel like a lot of people worry like when i become a mom like i won't be fun anymore like
where am i gonna go to the best party and it's like no join the PTA we
have neon nights you'll wake up naked with glow sticks I need to know where you live like it's a
good time it's reminding me of the movie bad moms yeah yeah yeah like also you know I don't think
other moms like would really judge you because sometimes like you just need as a mom like you
just need to let go and like yeah go wild so I don't think it's really a big deal at all.
I don't think it's a big deal.
But I also think that you've done like the community a service in sharing your story
because it lets other people know that like you can still be doing these things as a mom.
Like opportunities will present themselves.
Yeah.
Like don't be afraid to have kids like you can still get blocked out.
Yeah.
And you're not going to be at One Oak.
You're going to be at the PTA meeting, which is different.
You're going to be in the gymnasium with glow sticks.
Fun.
Fun.
If you drink enough, the gymnasium can turn into one oak yeah i mean i would rather be in a gymnasium than at
one oak honestly a hundred percent a hundred percent right like you're probably wearing
comfortable clothes i really don't think this is a big deal at all i think you can like release
your anxiety um and just maybe take it like a little easier next time at PTA night, but not even.
Like, it sounds like everyone was getting that wasted.
So you were just like doing what everyone else was doing.
You're just a follower.
Yeah.
You're fine.
You're fine.
Number two.
Okay, Jackson, Claude, this one's a doozy.
So I went out with a group of friends to bring in the new year.
And in order to save money, we decided to pregame at a friend's house before heading out.
Well, pregaming turned into me drinking a majority of a bottle of patron to myself once we
got to the club i was completely drunk off my ass but i was walking talking and dancing so i didn't
think i was that far gone slow down i can't even keep up with you oh wow keep going by the way it's
hard to follow the stories when you're the not reader is what i've experienced in my not reading
position okay i'll let you know if that is the case, but you were just going so motherfucking fast.
She drank a whole bottle of Patron.
Our group decided that they wanted to go to a different club for the countdown,
so we rallied the troops and went to leave.
This was where disaster struck.
On the way out, there's a set of six-ish stairs you have to go down,
and I made it about halfway before I tripped
and took the entire velvet rope down with me.
All three bouncers ran to help me.
I swore I was fine, but my thumb hurt a little bit.
My friends told me I looked fine
and that was that or so I thought.
Flash forward to the next morning,
I'm on FaceTime with my cousin
complaining about how hungover I am
when I go to toss my hair, a habit I do all the time,
and find my curls have been dried up
in my vomit from last night.
It was crunchy to the touch
and took three washes just to get
the stench off and to top it all off i did in fact sprain my thumb and had to wear a brace for two
weeks while it healed i've never been so embarrassed and disgusted with myself all at once needless to
say i will be staying away from patron for the rest of eternity and staying my ass home for new
years okay i just want to say like that is vile like that is so disgusting to have slept with
vomit in your hair but like at least you weren't like sleeping with a guy or like you were the only one who
saw it.
So it's not embarrassing.
What makes this totally fine is that it was New Year's.
Yes.
New Year's like everything is absolved.
It's a new year.
What you did last year is none of your business.
100%.
And if there's ever like a universal night to go balls to the walls and wake up with
vomit in your hair, it is New Year's. And so for so for that you're absolved you're unburdened and like nobody saw it
like yes you could sit and like have anxiety over the fact like you did something and like you can't
believe it got that far but like literally nobody saw so just pretend it never happened yeah and you
got the stench out of your hair so you're good you're good you're totally fine but that's a lot
but you're good i hope your thumb's okay lot. But you're good. I hope your thumb's okay.
The thumb is what's tough.
Like, you need your thumb.
Otherwise, you'll be a strice brother.
Right.
Useless.
No opposable thumbs.
Useless strice brothers.
Useless strice brothers.
Sitting, sleeping through the workday.
Truly.
Number three.
Hi, Jackson, Claude.
I love y'all.
I didn't realize so many people write Claude as with an E at the end.
Honestly, in my couple years of doing all the
readings i've really never seen anyone do an e that's weird though that two today two thirds
hi jackson claude i love y'all so much and congrats on one year of spritz i'm a big pineapple
and peach girly so thank you for making What can I say except yad welcome.
My anxiety story is four years old and I still have nightmares about it.
Oh girl, we've all been there.
Okay, it's time to un-this-burden.
We're going to help you.
I was getting over a heartbreak and was really feeling down on myself.
I was out of town for work in a state literally across the country.
So did you take the I-95?
Me and some work friends went out to a bar one night and the alcohol was
flowing. I decided to get on Bumble
and to my excitement I matched
with someone in the city. I tipsily
invited him to the bar.
What's that? Who speaks like that?
Wait, hold on.
Moira.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I tipsily invited...
But what is the word that she says when she says that?
Herb, herblinger.
I think it's from that little...
In the lee of a picturesque ridge
lies a small, unpretentious swine, right?
Whatever.
Whatever.
It's annoying me now.
I dipsily invited him to the bar
and by the time he showed up, I was full-on drunk. We went back to my hotel room and started to hook up and I... It's obviously her now. I dipsily invited him to the bar. And by the time he showed up, I was full on drunk.
We went back to my hotel room and started to hook up.
It's obviously your boss, right?
Oh, I don't know.
I didn't even think about that.
And I literally fell asleep during it.
I know this because when I woke up alone, might I add,
he had written me a note letting me know what happened.
I was mortified.
What's worse is the door to my hotel room was left partially open.
And I couldn't remember the details of what we did before I fell asleep.
I couldn't find remnants of a condom. So I call my friend and we went to the hotel CVS
and I bought plan b at least my co-worker had a CVS coupon so it was $20 off I learned my lesson
and have not put myself in a situation like that ever since thanks for letting me I'm burdened
myself even though I think I will feel shame for how dumb I was forever not dumb like literally
people take plan b all the time yeah no but like sleeping with
the hotel door open like right she has nightmares about like what could have happened of course but
it sounds like the door was left open because he left yeah and maybe it was just like one of those
doors that like just doesn't slam shut behind you and needs to be like pulled and i don't know if i
would have like necessarily the biggest pit because it sounds like he left a note he was somewhat
respectful like everything i think what she has anxiety about is like everything was fine but it could have not been
like she happened to go home with a guy who was extremely respectful slept with the door open and
nobody came in and robbed her like everything went right and that never happens yeah so she always
it's just thinking about like the potential I think about that all the time when I get in
situations where like it could have been so much worse. And then I have
a pit about like, how could I be so dumb? How could I put myself in that situation? A hundred percent.
So like, and having, you know, nightmares about it four years later, but it's also a lesson and
important lesson and probably learning that lesson then in, in what turned out to be like a positive,
an okay environment, um, stopped you from learning it in a worse environment that's so true actually and it's
just sad like those are one of those like some lessons just have to be learned like that like
and you should just feel but I know exactly what you're saying like sometimes I feel that way
remember when I capsized I know this is like a very random um analogy but when I capsized in
the Delaware and it was literally freezing and I was like freaking out and I was never really in
any actual danger because I was close to the shore and also Ben and Brian were in two different um kayaks next to me but I always
think like because it was it wasn't summer it was like between winter and spring it was really cold
you can get really caught in a rapid like so many terrible things have happened in like rivers and
stuff and I always think like how dumb I fucking am like and how much worse it could have been and
like honestly I haven't been on the river since then it like freaks me out that was the lesson for you like
yes the river it's like or did you do something on the kayak that caused you to capsize I was
being reckless I was drinking I was wearing a life vest but like it just it highlighted the
importance of like things can go wrong really quickly and like you can't be a dumb bitch

anniversary of Spritz Society and we are celebrating on our website with birthday bundles. So you're
