Good morning, Millennials! Welcome back to the Morning Toast. Happy Thursday. Congratulations on making it to the latter half of the week. That is no small feat. You should be incredibly proud of yourselves. I know I am. I am as well.

It's been a great week so far. Florida Toast still going strong. I see that you're wearing my slippers. And I didn't really realize that that had happened. No, these belong to me now. Aren't they gorgeous? We're both actually wearing, these are the Skakin pr slippers and those are skims hotel slippers oh i didn't realize they were skims no wonder i've been just like gravitating towards them speaking of skims

jackie got me the nicest gift like so unnecessary by the way like i wasn't even expecting a gift and you were like i got you something and i thought it was like you know like a novelty like one of our like dumb gift exchange not like Not like a thoughtful, expensive, real like present. And I was so not expecting it. I got the Skakin Exfoliator. I used it last night. It like, I had the longest day yesterday. You guys know I only got two hours of sleep.

Then we just like worked all day. We had the spritz meet and greet, which was amazing. And by the time I got home taking my makeup off from the morning, I was just exhausted. And so I took a bath and I really like cultivated a nice vibe. I'm like, let me do my Skakin exfoliator. And I was like going to cry. I'm like, this is luxury.

It was so rich. Like it was, first of all, product wise, product review, loved it. I told you the exfoliator is on another level. Like if you get one product. From Skakin. That I think should be it. I mean, I haven't used any, I use a moisturizer, but you know, there are a lot of good moisturizers. Yes. I don't have like,

I use an Ole Henriksen exfoliator at home. Like it's fine. I think I use a Kiehl's one. It's fine. I've never had an exfoliating experience like that. And I know you are very into exfoliators. So I wanted to get it for you. And then I was like, when you're here, it'll be the perfect time. It was so nice and I loved it so thank you you're welcome um yeah welcome and Ben and Margo got here late last night they're enjoying the Florida vibes already Ben wanted me to praise you on your homemaking skills like Ben had a long day too you know he was up early working in Atlanta got back to your house at midnight yeah and got into the bed he was like this is just he took a shower there's been a lot of talk about the shower in your guest room I've been taking baths every night so I haven't experienced it but everyone

in town is talking about it and Ben was like that shower I'm like no I know I gotta experience it I gotta get in there yeah um when you have to wash your hair do it yeah and then he slept like so nice and he was just like premium he wanted me to say premium job well done that means so much thank you so much I'm so glad you guys are having a nice time. I'm so glad everyone's here now. It's a full house. Bryce and Magnolia are reunited. Nature is healing. The love has not been lost whatsoever. They picked up right where they left off and we can all just enjoy. Do you think it's gross to drink from a can that you opened yesterday morning? Why would it be gross? I don't know. Cause like it's been open for 24 hours, like with just chilling, like, um, I don't think it's gross. It's just

whatever's in there is probably not very good. Well, I opened a Pellegrino can yesterday and I guess I didn't finish it and I was just feeling really thirsty. And so I drank it. It was delicious by the way. And thanks to the air conditioning in the studio, it was like, it was in the fridge. It's cold. Um, I was just wondering if that's gross. Like the only reason why I, with a can, it's different because it's a smaller hole but like with a large cup like you could get over the course of a day some dust in it but it's small oh a bug a bug i didn't think about a bug and there's so many bugs down here uh you're telling me critters crawling creepy critters lizards shake it forards. Shake it for the birds. Shake it for the bees. And the frogs.

At night, the frogs gather on my patio, and they stand there in a line waiting for the Streis brothers. They say, come out. Come out wherever you are. We would love to kill you. No, there's literally enemies in your own front yard. No, the Streis brothers are under attack. It's disgusting.

And now they have a lady to protect, so they really need to get their shit together. And now they have a lady to protect. So they really need to get their shit together. Yeah, but there was just like three. Also, question. Sound off in the comments. Are all frogs deadly for dogs or just a certain kind of toad? Also, what's the difference between a frog and the toad?

That, I think, is one of the better questions we've asked here. Because I have literally no fucking idea. And if you ever are a dog owner who happens to live in Florida where there's like this frog, there's this war. Killer frog community. Yeah. It's a war. What are your tips and tricks? Like you're obviously doing the thing with your yard, but that takes a couple weeks.

What are good tips to like keep dogs safe in Florida? I didn't realize there was like this, it's literally like a pandemic for the dogs. Yeah, no, there's constant threats. Constant threats. It's time these boys had a little excitement, honestly. Yeah. Life in New York was too easy easy for them they're escaping death every day no and then when they lay their pet on their pillow at night it's like they deserve it like they worked hard they evaded death yeah oh oh theo scratching at the door there's someone at the door but figure it out

i'm not getting it's like when do you know how andy has the doorbell like when you're a special guest we have like scratches at your door. And it's Theo. So we did our Spritz meet and greet last night in Fort Lauderdale. We met so many toasters. I think it was our most populated, not most attended event. It was so nice to meet everyone like who lives here. So many people who live here like literally just moved here. So a lot of people who could relate to your experience.

Yes, it was a great group of toasters. It was so fun to meet everyone. And it was so fun to do the meet and greet together. I know we've never done. Well, we've done one five years ago and we haven't done a spritz one together. And when I got home, I was like so tired from talking like my jaw hurt. Yeah. And it was just so fun.

So thank you to everyone who came out and supported spritz. We really appreciate that. And we just appreciate life and these flamingos obviously of course I'm gonna miss them when you go and then I go back to my leave side of things but I'll be back you will be do when do you think you'll be back I don't know um definitely your birthday which is I'm not I'm not saying nothing before that but at least we have one trip on the books for sure your 30th birthday is in November um I feel like I'll probably come down like for a bunch of episodes like when I'm on tour like nearby like I have to go to Nashville

right I have to go to Nashville yeah so I feel like it actually would probably be beneficial for me to like spend time here in between some of those shows so true so I can chill do premium podcasts relax recharge for shows and then have shorter flights. That's so true. Right? Yeah. Okay. Sounds good. I'm also starting to theorize about when I'm going to come up to New York for a visit.

That'd be crazy. Yeah. No. And like the way I tore apart our studio, I don't know how we're going to go back to like our regular episodes. I literally, you won't recognize it. Like it's so different. And I moved all the equipment and I unplugged a lot of things.

So we're just going to need some help getting that back together. Okay. Where we could stay here. I love podcasting here. Can I just say like, enjoy it immensely. Let's talk about yesterday's episode, how it's becoming like a critically acclaimed episode. We were so funny.

Yeah. We covered so many different topics and the stories were great. And people are just like, they're adding it to their Google doc, their list of episodes to send to other people, like that they've been trying to get, you know, a friend or a family member into the toast.

And there's like certain episodes that'll do it. And I do believe yesterday was one of them. I love that. I mean, you were really the star of yesterday's episode. No, I was with your, with your recap of the Turpin sisters.

Right? No. And now that I With your recap of the Turpin sisters. Right, no, and now that I've become like a public Turpin person, I've been getting so much information. So there was a lawsuit filed three weeks ago. Against who? Against the state or like the foster care system. Good. Because docs revealed that six of the foster kids

who were taken from the Turpin house into foster homes were victims of abuse. Again, emotional, physical abuse. So the story is unfolding. And I do believe other adult children have started to identify themselves on social media. Okay. So it's just, it's unraveling slowly. We just need to keep talking about it. Yeah. Yeah. Um, but we've got a great show. It's Thursday, which means I didn't watch real housewives of Beverly Hills last night,

even though I am all caught up, but that's because I was busy meeting and greeting. So I feel like that's a good excuse. We were so busy. We were meeting and then we were greeting. We were doing both, but we, sometimes we greeted and then we made it.

Yeah. Oh, thank you. Um, so I feel like let's dive in. Let's dive in to the Fast Five stories that you need to know before you wake up and take a bite out of your morning toast. And today's episode is brought to you by Scout Design Studio.

By the way, I have been getting messages like, please tell me Jackie has a code for Scout. We do. So Scout is a furniture store based in Dallas where I have gotten so much of the furniture for my new house, including these two chairs that we're sitting on right now. Did I, did we order one from my studio? We ordered one from your studio and then I ordered another one for my solo endeavors here. These chairs are just taking over the world. They're called the Lana

Ivory Buclay chairs. I say Buccal, but I think it's Buclay. The thing about Buclay is that it's really, it's interpretive. Bucal. Buclay is more personal than comedy. So true. I have a bunch of other pieces from Scout in my house already. The lamps in your room. Is the bench from my room from Scout? The bench in your room.

It's another Buclay bench. It's from Scout. And I also have more stuff coming. They also have a sickening art collection. All different kinds of art. I have some wonderful pieces coming. Also, what's's so funny before I started working with Scout on my house everyone was tagging me in this piece of art from Scout it says fuck around and find out in ombre and it's like patterned and it's so cool and I'm actually getting one I will put it in the studio

because it's so apt that's iconic it's. People were tagging me in that too. Like send this to Jackie, send this to Jackie. And then I'm like, you were telling me about Scout. I'm like, I think that's the place. The fuck around and find out place. Right, right. So they have gorgeous furniture. They have an incredible collection of art.

in new york and here yeah keeping the same energy and that's what we do with everything like no we all have the same couch no that's because like olivia's getting that bench from scout one thing about me is like if i see something i like like i am gonna copy the other person of course which is an annoying trait except i don't pretend like i came up with it on my own like i'm acknowledging the copying and i feel like that makes it okay except for the sphinx pants okay i feel like i acknowledge that uh you were the one who told me to go out to get them but then I made it like my personality trait yeah same with reading yeah yeah no and I just got a partnership with sphinx because I sold so many pants so thanks checks

yeah but you know what that's on I can take ownership in the fact that I never posted the link you know you did I can own that and maybe I should have and maybe it would have been my partnership 100 but you know what rising tides rise all sides so it's like a partnership for one is a partnership for all like I feel like a partnership for you is is literally around the corner yeah seeing the power of the toast you know who wouldn't want to work with us I'm happy for you no I would be annoyed for sure so no but like I would I'm acknowledging like I would be fucking annoyed I'm like bitch I literally gave you that idea and like you're running to the bank I'd be fucking bitch, I literally gave you that idea. And like, you're running to the bank. I'd be fucking annoyed.

I'm happy for you. You know what? I feel like you deserve a commission on it, honestly. I'll tell the business manager. Okay. Maybe we could like- 0.1% to Jackie. Maybe we all could have partnerships. No, I just think,

I think we should all have a partnership with Spanx. And I feel like maybe after they see this episode, things will change. Yeah, just know, like I actually got a targeted Facebook ad. That's how I found those white pants. Yes, I got them. I love them.

I thought they were so sleek and sophisticated. And I know that you're, like, on this sophisticated journey. And I was like, Claudia, these pants would be amazing on you. No, and first of all, that was so thoughtful of you. Those pants have changed my summer. And I just need those pants in another color. Like, why do they only offer them in white? And they have a similar version in like a silver.

And that's just not what I'm looking for. What about like a nude? That would be nice. Everything. A light pink, maybe a black. Everything. Yeah, it's like the perfect pant. Come in another color, please.

Not all of us want to wear white. Come in every color. Summer's almost over. Right, right, right. So Scout, thank you so much for that. 15% off. Thank you, Scout. Code Toast.

T-O-A-S-T. Are you going to get the iPad? Oh, I guess. How's life with the new iPad? This is week one, day like four. I'm going to be honest because the iPad is great. Like no shade to it. But I was really excited about this keyboard because then I could type things easier.

But it's not easy to type with the Shrice Brothers on my lap every day. Not only that, um, I was using your iPad and the dimensions of the keyboard are different than the dimensions of a classic laptop. And the way I was typing, not English, because my fingers, you're used to like the same exact keyboard. Even if it's like a Dell computer, it's the same spacing between letters. Generally, it's the same size.

But this is like a scaled down version of it. And I was literally typing gibberish. Okay, that doesn't bother me. But the fact that I can't like fold the keyboard behind the iPad and then read like this, and then I want to take the iPad off, but then I lose the keyboard and it's like, why'd I get a new iPad?

No, totally. You should. I was using your iPad to put in the data for the episode. And I was trying to flip the thing that should go backwards. It should go backwards. It doesn't. Design flaw.

Design flaw. Okay. So I'm going to do my best here. Okay, you know what? I'm just kidding. Kicking it off. Hopefully we don't have to Google anything today. No, because we're literally encyclopedias of knowledge. Encyclopedias.

Our first story, Jonah Hill, former love of Ruthie, will no longer promote his films to avoid anxiety attacks. He says, and it's an important step to protect myself. In an open letter penned to fans, the Wolf of Wall Street actor revealed that he will not promote his upcoming documentary, Stuts, which he directed when it hits the film festival circuit later this year. He also wrote that he will skip press tours and public events for upcoming projects, citing his years-long battle with anxiety and panic attacks as part of his decision quote i finished directing my second film a documentary about me and my therapist which explores mental health in general called studs the whole purpose

of making this film is to give therapy and the tools i've learned in therapy to a wide audience for private use through an entertaining film his letter began per rolling stone quote through this journey of self-discovery within the film, I have come to the understanding that I've spent nearly 20 years experiencing anxiety attacks, which are exacerbated by media appearances and public-facing events. He went on to write that he is so grateful that the film will premiere at a prestigious film festival this fall, noting that he is excited to share the project with the world

in the hope that it will help those who are struggling. However, you won't see me out there promoting this film or any upcoming films while I take this important step to protect myself. If I made myself sicker by going out there and promoting it, I wouldn't be acting true to myself or to the film. No, that's so true, especially because it's a mental health film. And this is so great for him. I know this is like, you get to a certain level where you're allowed to do this. I think a lot of people would love to not do it. I think a lot of people would love to not do it. I think a lot of people struggle.

Those events are like really chaotic. I think a lot of people have been open about that. But you have to get to a certain level where like you're employable even if you don't do media because media is half the job. You go and act in something and then the months afterwards are the other half of the job. So it's the way that like the industry works that like not everyone is going to be able to book roles if they don't agree to media. So this is obviously like a privilege.

And you know what? Like good for him because you got to do, you got to protect your space. Yeah. I do feel like he's one of these actors who's really in it for the art and wants to like act and loves the craft and also loves directing

and is not interested in the fame side of things. And I feel like if he even had to choose between some roles, if he is not doing media and that doesn't work, he would be okay turning that down because he's only interested at this point in the acting. Right, he has like artistic integrity. Also, I'm sure this is unintentional, but this is actually really good press for the movie.

Of course. Because he's prioritizing his mental health. The movie's about mental health. Also, it is a big announcement and it's promoting the movie of course because he's prioritizing his mental health the movie's about mental health also it is a big announcement and it's promoting the movie but no but it's also just like the life imitating art piece where it's like i've come to this decision and you can watch the movie to find out how and why it's literally life imitating art yeah and now it just feels like there is this opportunity like they're like he will not be attending events and that there's room for one more. So I am available. And if anybody needs me on a red carpet in lieu of

Jonah, I'm a great time. I love to look glamorous. I'll make you some clickbaity type of headlines. I can be bought is what I'm saying. I think that would be really cool I would like to nominate Ruthie to go to those events instead of Jonah or with him and maybe he'd feel you know more at ease more comfortable with like a safe space by his side like a rock on his arm right it'll really it'll actually like stabilize him great thank you that was the word I was looking for it would ground him I do think that he could also use a Ruthie in his life and that you know that would also cause a lot of positive change but I'm not gonna go down this road well that's the lesson here is that like find your Ruthie find your Ruthie and don't let her go no because Jonah made that mistake once and he continues to pay for it honestly continues like every relationship that he's so

stoked about pales in comparison to ruthie what he could have had with ruthie 100 percent um not to be annoying but your mic flag is upside down again well here's why because i'm constantly changing the position of my microphone when i'm reading it's down here when we go to do when like a deer toasters i go this way so I'm between flags I'm between flags and you know what I like this about myself okay and soon you're gonna be between flags too and be like being between and I'm gonna get a sponsorship with between between two flags no I'll get a sponsorship with six flags because I'm talking about it because you have so many flags and different positions and you'll be like I'll be I'll literally get a sponsorship with the company

that made this I think it's called like PBS or something you'd be like being between two flags is the best thing ever. Yeah. No, I can't believe there was a time in my life when I wasn't between two flags, hashtag ad. And I'll just be sitting here. Womp,

womp, womp. Oh, that would literally be like, if I got a sponsorship with like Kindle. Oh my God. Because like you, not only did you like try so hard to get me to read for so many years.

And I was like, so stubborn. Then I started reading and you were like, Kindle, Kindle. I'm like, no, no, I'm like a real girl. I you like try so hard to get me to read for so many years and I was like so stubborn. Then I started reading and you were like, Kindle, Kindle. I'm like, no, no, I'm like a real girl. I'm like a real girl. Yeah, yeah. And now like Kindle's my personality. Yeah, no. And the Kindle that you had up until last week was mine.

Was yours. Yeah. Oh my God. That's so fucked up. Yeah. Oh, that I think. Would hurt. Things you can have.

Really most things. I love to share. No, you're very good with that. But yeah, yeah no I think that would that would cut deep yeah also yesterday at the meet and greet people brought their kindles for us to sign and I actually don't think I've ever been so honored and flattered yeah that was cool because it's so permanent it's so permanent and it's like we're fixtures in the reading community which I you know I I had a feeling, you know, Redheads does things. But that's pretty cool.

No, it's extremely cool how like when people think of reading, they think of you. Like that's cool. That's so cool. It's pretty cool. It's never too late to become a Redhead. Our next book is a snitch's choice, which is when most people do become Redheads because it's a pretty easy barrier to entry. Except snitch is doing a little something different.

We're reading a book called Everything I Know About Love by Dolly Alderton. It just became a series on Peacock or it's coming out like next week. So it's perfect timing. I've been seeing this book everywhere, like outside of the redhead. So it's like a good relevant choice. Yeah. And I think it's more Snitch is always like rom-com erotica. I think it's still like cute and fun like that that but a little more in the not self-help but

like introspective memoir territory i actually do think it's a memoir i love the name dolly yeah what name do you like name your child that you like nickname them dolly dahlia yeah or you just go full dolly yeah but i like i like a nickname i like a nickname too what's dolly parton's full name definitely dolly or it's like not even that right it's like sarah yeah right that's like kiki palmer's name is lauren oh i didn't know that and her middle name is lauren like it starts with a k so she think everyone thinks that her name is kiki because her middle name is k but no actually it was just like a family nickname it's giving snitch energy like 100% yeah I have like like I've always loved Kiki Palmer but like my new favorite thing to do is like when I'm getting

ready to be watching random interviews she does because it's just like gorgeous little tidbits of her being so fucking funny um and I just recommend spending like wasting your days away doing that I watched her hot ones interview her hot ones is like one of the most critically acclaimed. Oh, I'm sure it's so good. Because now everyone does hot ones. It's like a stop on the press tour. But she was like one of the first, not first, but like back when it wasn't like a popular thing to do, she did it. And like the hot ones community regards her episode as like one of the top ones. She was so funny. Oh, I would love to watch that. She went all the way up to like the, what do they do? 10 wings. And and like she literally might as well have been eating a salad like she didn't feel a thing that's crazy whereas like if i always think if i ever did that like the first one is usually like the store bought like sriracha

i'd be dead on the floor i cannot eat spicy shit no like you actually couldn't be famous because you can't do that you can't do uh like eat the one with james corden oh god eat it spill your guts no I just literally be telling everyone everything spill your guts or fill your guts sometimes I'm like up at night and I'm like really worried like I would literally have to spill my guts yeah no there's so many things like that um are required when you're a celebrity that actually are torture like even those days like for photo shoots where you're literally up at six doing glam checking outfits you're you're literally working for 12 hours before you even get to in front of the camera.

So that shit looks horrible. Yeah. It's so hot. Oh my God. Like no. And people are like putting you in makeup and clothes that like you have no approval on. Like you're just the muse.

Fuck that. No. If it, if it ain't loose fitting, I don't want it. If it ain't the Spanx white pants. Right. And if like the glam isn't literally like a black line and a nude lipstick please stay the fuck away from me are you ready for our next story yeah kanye is in some hot water for selling yeezy gap clothes in large garbage bags and he says he's not here to sit up and apologize about my ideas so kanye has been

facing backlash for selling his new Yeezy Gap clothing line in what appeared to be trash bags. They show pictures of these large, not trash bags, but like big black plastic bags saying this is how they're selling Yeezy Gap. The sales associate said Kanye got mad

when he saw they had it on hangers and this is how he wanted it. They won't help you find your size too. You have to dig through everything so Kanye said quote I'm an innovator and I'm not here to sit up and apologize about my ideas that's exactly what the media tries to do make us apologize for any idea that doesn't fall under exactly the way they want us to think so obviously like as a shopper if I walked into a store like I wouldn't you know enjoy this experience of rummaging through a bag for my size um but it's not like Kanye doesn't have like this is was an intentional choice it's like I think he's thinking of it as some sort of like art display and I don't

understand art but I believe that's what he's doing and while it wouldn't be a pleasant shopping experience for me he's like he's made it clear in more ways than one that like he is an artist he doesn't do things conventional ways and this is the way he's doing it and there are his fans fans of him and fans of Yeezy like will be excited by this it's like a different way personally like it wouldn't be fun for me but like I respect the artistic choice you know yeah he said the clothing display intends to make life easier and informal so that we can all basically dress in the dark right it's like a statement on something it's art like it's a statement on something but like practically you know that's not how i want to shop like when i could shop online i can just like go to a rack that i like and then go to my size like refine price low to high size xl right

but this is a shopping experience whilst making a statement and participating in art installation and if that is for you, enjoy. And if it's not, just go to shopmorningtoast.com and you can just shop by your size and the item that you want. That's really, really good advice. Also, like, I don't understand like the backlash to this. Like, don't go. Right.

Backlash, like, I have such a problem with backlash culture. Like, you want to make a statement on why this is problematic? So literally don't buy it. Like, no one's forcing you. Right, and it's not like- It's not statement on why this is problematic. So literally don't buy it. Like no one's forcing you. Right. And it's not like this is you need this to live. No.

And there it's not like you went to the stores and it was chaos and there's clothes everywhere and garbage bags because they didn't get it on the hangers. It's messy. You don't like his art. Intentional. Yeah. I mean, I personally don't get it and that's not how I want to shop. But a lot of times Kanye is like ahead of, you know,

the joggers. Right. So I will wait and see on this, but I really just don't see how it's practical. I don't think it's going to become like a trend. I just think like it's an artistic choice and people with the backlash, like if, okay,

if he was putting oxygen that people need to breathe and selling it like this, that would be problematic you don't like the experience like don't go you don't have to write a whole fucking tweet about it okay like about why it's problematic we really don't care yeah yeah okay cool oh sorry no continue are you ready for our next story only if it's a story that's brought to you by Spritz Society it is it is soak up summer with Spritz Society.

These sparkling cocktails aren't like most. They're made with real California white wine and natural fruit flavors. They're perfect for any occasion from pregame to poolside. And speaking of flavors, there's one for everyone. From the four originals,

grapefruit, blood orange, pineapple, and lemon, to our flavor of the summer, peach. And if you can't decide on which one you want to try first or you just love them all, try the ultimate Spritz taste test with the variety eight pack and you can add peach to your cart to get the complete set so spritz society as you guys know is a company that we founded that we're really proud of it is a gorgeous gorgeous canned beverage you can get it at spritzsociety.com we are sold in a couple states right now we're in florida we're in chicago we're in texas we're in Florida we're in Chicago we're in Texas we're in Boston Georgia California

um at BevMo we're in Total Wine so if you just go to the SpritzSociety.com website you can purchase directly from there and get it shipped to your house or you can use the store locator to find a store near you I know we're on Nantucket Snitch was in Nantucket you saw it in the liquor store um I know we're in some stores in the Hamptons so we're in a a bunch of different stores.

Love is Blind season two couple Ayanna and Jarrett are getting divorced. Ayanna McNeely and Jarrett Jones, who said I do during season two of Love is Blind, are couple, Ayanna and Jarrett, are getting divorced. Ayanna McNeely and Jarrett Jones,

who said, I do during season two of Love is Blind, are going their separate ways. The Netflix stars announced they are divorcing after nearly a year of marriage in a joint statement shared to Instagram on Wednesday. Quote, after much thought, we're saddened to share that we have separated and will begin the process of divorcing.

They told fans they still have love for each other, noting that their lives are simply going in different directions and coming to this decision was far from easy and will always wish each other the best yada yada yada you get the point like if you watch obviously this isn't the most surprising thing because like he had proposed to someone else literally a minute before um but they did end up getting married and they did end up i think being married for at least a year because almost a year so at that point i'm oh, maybe it was like editing and maybe they're just like legit.

So I do find it surprising. Is this our first divorce, by the way? From Love is Blind? Yes. Because the first two couples are still married. The Hamiltons and Amber and Barnett, who both turned out to be like actual, like perfect matches for each other. It's crazy.

Is anyone else married from this season? Yes. The. Yes. Nick and Danielle. Yes. Okay. So at least they're still together. perfect matches for each other it's crazy is anyone else married from this season yes the yes nick and danielle yes okay so at least they're still together and by the way i have faith that they that they are meant for each other like they just radiate the same energy yeah except like where the dancing on the tables and her house in her apartment yeah yeah and like her like getting the notovirus in mexico and then yelling at him like to get out which was relatable yeah but that's like real relationship like how things go and all of a sudden you're in a fight and you were like mad about something you took it out on and now you're

just like in a weird fight and you're watching him from the balcony talking to other people that literally happened last night like with me and ben i was just so tired and i was like being rude because i got two hours of sleep and he got home late and he was like being chatty and i'm like please like can't please go to bed and he was like we haven't seen each other like in a week like can we talk and I was like good night that's funny you should have fallen asleep before he got there that way he wouldn't like disturb you yeah but like I wanted to see him I love him yeah you should I should want to chat you know pretend it to be asleep that's I Ben has never not come home past 11 o'clock where I've been awake and not pretended

to be asleep I'm always like if you acknowledge that you're up, like then you are actually going to be up and they're going to think like, it's okay. No, no, no, no. Like I'm up and like, I'm up, but I'm not up. No, no, no, no, no. I'm sorry. I'll fake for a minute and then like jump out and scare him. Like, I still want to see him. I'm just like, I want him to think I was asleep always. Yeah. No, I'm just like, if I fake, I'm going to sleep. I'm going to fall asleep in five minutes. If I, if he knows that I'm awake, I'll fall. I'll be able to go to sleep in an hour. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But Ben will, Ben had like, I fake sleep so many times. Like he knows if my phone is even remotely close to me, that means like I heard the door open. I just like put my

phone down and started sleeping. But if my phone is like on the nightstand, then he knows I'm really asleep. Got it. But now I know that he knows that. So I put is like on the nightstand then he knows I'm really asleep got it but now I know that he knows that so I put the phone on the nightstand that's really funny it's it's one of my most annoying qualities as a wife for sure that you fake sleeping and then scare him yeah I fake sleep and like usually he's like oh you're faking you're faking and then I'm like yeah but sometimes I didn't realize this was a thing between you two sometimes I'll take it really far he's like I know you're faking I know you're faking then I like tickle me and I'll I'll stay good he's like oh shit she's asleep then he like goes to get dressed whatever get in the shower I'm like ah I can't it's so mean that is so mean especially because if Ben ever did that to

me because I scare very easily I would be so mad like genuinely upset he knows not to do it because I I get so scared especially at night no that's really crazy I wouldn't that's really crazy that you do that I just feel like waking someone when they're sleeping is one of the rudest things that you could do it's so inhumane yeah and also sometimes it's like Zach's coming in I might be like in like drifting off and like yes technically I heard that you came in but I'm not gonna come out of my slumber for it that is extremely reasonable that's what I'm saying no of course if you're like halfway there yeah you shouldn't stop.

No, don't turn back. Don't turn back. Even though like for me, if I heard something while I was halfway there, I'm awake. In those first couple minutes, like leading into sleep, I'm extremely sensitive. Then a bomb could go off and I'm asleep. I'm not hearing it. Got it. Well, you know, for Ayanna and Jarrett, obviously they didn't have these things worked out. It's divorce for them. for Ayanna and Jarrett. Obviously they didn't have these things worked out. It's divorce for them. I really liked Jarrett.

I liked Ayanna too. Like I think that they were nice people, but I don't think they were a perfect match. Me too. The way like I watched the season and then when I read this, I was just like, who, what? Oh yeah. And then I was like, was that five years ago?

No, two months ago. That's the reality TV turnover rate these days. It's like people come in and out of your brain in 30 seconds yeah this was faster than anything I've experienced even though like the original love is blind season was such a cultural shift I think it was when people really stopped watching the bachelor honestly like I think it had such an impact on reality tv that I remember everything that happened I remember everyone everyone's name. It was the best time of my life. Yeah, no, it was, it was peak living. Cause it was also like COVID right before COVID, you know, things were in full swing. It was a great time here on Netflix,

but then cheer season two, womp, womp. It was fine. I mean, then the Jerry stuff like wompy. Yeah. It was wompy as hell. And by then it wasn't like, it wasn't this random thing nobody knew about. Then there was like a cult following. It's always more fun when there's a documentary on the most random fucking thing and like it galvanizes the nation. Well, that leads us to our next story. I've never had a better segue in our whole career. Bama Rush is officially being turned into a documentary. So every fall, like clockwork, more and more TikTok users lose themselves in a very specific niche, Bama Rush videos.

There's just something so captivating about the University of Alabama's hyper meticulous sorority rush rituals that totally takes over TikTok for a full week in August. But now fans of the videos can dive into the craze even deeper because a Bama Rush documentary is being made to fully explore how preppy OOTD videos, viral dance battles, and over-the-top events turned one college campus into TikTok's favorite playground. Wait, so is the documentary about like how it became viral or about Bama Rush like diving deep? The documentary has been filming throughout this year's sorority recruitment week, which took place from August 6th to August 14th.

And it is about the virality. No, and just BAM, the week. Quote, the film is a thoughtful and compassionate portrayal of young women in 2022 as they rush the sorority system at the University of Alabama. It will be Vice Studios producing the documentary in partnership with HBO Max, where it will almost certainly premiere as an extremely exclusive so it will be about you know exactly what you see

on tiktok and then i imagine plus the tiktok element like how how they feel about it right so last year it was all about mckayla what would jimmy buffett do that was her username and if you follow her which i still do um she's been talking about this like and she's i don't know she has like a weird take on it because i think like they wanted her to be a part of it and then it didn't work out so her NDA was void and then she like started going off on TikTok so is she like a sophomore now at so she's a sophomore and when she was a freshman like she was last year was the first year that it happened so she was like the star but there was like a few people who everyone was following but her story got crazy because everyone was loving her she was like so cute and she like okay here's my outfit and her

pants were always from the pants store and everyone's like what the fuck is the pants store um but then she got dropped and it was crazy and then that's really what like turned this into like more of a real thing because everyone was like quietly following and then we were like wait Michaela got dropped we're delta we're delta gamma um so everyone's like why did Michaela get dropped there were so many rumors and she had so many followers and she was going live and there was like a video of her that had went viral when she was in high school I think maybe it was even on barstool like and she was just drunk and like there's really strict rules in Alabama like when it comes to sororities when it comes to drinking vaping, um,

your grades. So she got dropped and then like everyone moved on after that. Cause the week was over. No, like there can't be internet proof of you being like a delinquent, even though that's literally what college is about. Um, and that's what you do in a sorority.

Right. But like front facing, they're like these philanthropic organizations. So you have to have like a really clean social media presence and that video of her. And I think it had a lot to do with like the fact that she got really popular and that video resurfaced for that reason on TikTok um so she got dropped and then this year it happened again and it's just so interesting like all the girls who it's funny like on the first she's not in a sorority she's sophomore not in a sorority but

just an influencer on the campus which is also really good like right also nice just as good honestly but then this year when it first started it's funny like it's like now everyone knows so an influencer on campus. Which is also really good. Right, also nice. Just as good, honestly. But then this year, when it first started, it's funny, it's like now everyone knows. So there were like a ton of really cute girlies, Southern girlies,

getting on, doing their outfits. It's Sisterhood Day, it's Panhellenic Day, or whatever. And then it's funny how it weeds out and then a few,

the algorithm chooses a few people to keep moving forward. But day one, you saw like 10 girls. Day two, you saw like five. And now the star is, I think her name is Kaylin I've heard of her hope you're having a great day not just a good day she had the slogan which is a great marketing technique

for anyone you know listening who might be going to University of Alabama next year get yourself a slogan and on her first video that went viral she was wearing the cutest pair of Gucci shorts and and she was wearing like Lululemon and all the comments were like, oh my God, there's a rich one. So everyone just became obsessed with her because she was like very, what's the word?

Aspirational. Thank you so much. Oh my God, I couldn't find the word. She was very aspirational. And then she ended up being like really cute and really sweet. And she had this little slogan, this little phrase.

It was a perfect recipe for virality. And I'm sure she will be a star of the documentary. Um, she ended up getting Zeta and you know, they all go to the stadium. If you make it through the whole week without getting like dropped, you go to the stadium, you get an envelope and you like, listen to this whole like panel. And then they count down from 10. Like you cannot open the, open the envelope until, so she was videoing 10, nine, eight. And she opens it and like, she looked like kind of pissed. And she's like this really sweet, soft-spoken girl. And she was just like quiet.

She like opened the video. She was like, I'm Zayda. And then ended the video. Is that not the one she wanted, but it's the one she got? She never told us what she wanted. I don't think you're allowed to, honestly. I wonder if like I'm sure you know for all of us watching on TikTok it's like how could you not take Kaden right love her

right you know she's the best in the class but like when you're in it on campus I wonder if being that person is actually not helpful at all I don't know but they also say like what I've been I've been diving deep into sorority culture what they say is like you have to trust the system like even if you get a sorority that like it was unexpected or not like the number one choice for you like it was meant for you like you have to trust the system and then like a year later the girls are like oh my god I'm so glad I trusted the system of course like because you bloom where you're planted and what you're gonna go to a sorority and like hate it the whole time I love love that. Isn't that a nice saying?

You bloom. I'm going to cry. I love that. I need to write that down. You bloom. That was the perfect phrase. Pick that out of your back pocket. That was exactly what I was trying to say.

I heard it once like seven years ago, like in a meeting when I was working. Corporate. Corporate. And it just really resonated with me you bloom where you planted i love that and that's exactly like trust the system no you just have to live there so you end up having fun because right what are you gonna do it's the same thing just a different name it's there's still like girls and also it's the same thing right right and everyone is nice and sweet for the most

part that you know there's there's the same dynamics everywhere it's just a different name yeah as kiki popper says she once wanted to be in a sorority, but they're very political. They really are. Girls can be so fucking mean. Oh, they really are. And then like, this is like peak sorority Greek life. And because there's- This is like Sydney White.

Right. It's like the Southern, but now there's the element of like potential fame. So like the stakes are even higher. But I kind of like that you would think, okay, now that Bama Rush is like this viral thing, the girl who becomes like the most famous from it is going to get prepped in every single house but i kind of like how like they don't really care about what's happening like i'm sure they like that they're going viral and that people are into what they're doing they're not letting an impact influencing like actually who's going into the right house yeah i am curious and hopefully the documentary will

cover this like what does the university itself has to have to say? Has this impacted admissions or like the number of applicants they get? I assume after last year, because you watch it and it looks fun and it's good marketing for the school. It looks like I want to be a part of this. And if I was thinking of maybe applying to like university of Alabama or Auburn, maybe I'll go university of Alabama now. So I'm curious if it's had like a positive impact on the school as a business, you know? I'm sure that it mostly has. I'm also sure like everything else there will be a swing. Yeah, no. And eventually it'll just become like annoying and like brands will get involved. I mean, Kendra Scott is like when Alabama Rush starts, it's like, where do we sign up? Like they were commenting on everyone already sending out packages to the girls who they started. Like, I don't think anyone who works for the Kendra Scott marketing team, specifically

the TikTok team has slept in a week. Okay. Well take a beat. Take a rest. Kendra Scott like is. Sorority. And University of Alabama specifically. Yeah.

And like Lululemon too. But really Kendra Scott. Crazy. Well, that sounds really good. And also it's perfect for me because I'm not keeping up with it on TikTok obviously, but I am interested by it and the documentary I just want to be explained it I want to see the ins and outs I want to meet everyone um and I feel like it's this thing where like a lot of people are talking about it but also a lot of people are like what's going on

at the University of Alabama there's like they know that it's trending but they're not sure what for and they definitely don't know how it started so a documentary would be extremely helpful in this case I hope they can turn it around kind of quickly because they obviously used the last week as the breeding ground. No, it's filmed. Right. So like get it to us soon. Soon, please. Thank you very much. Our fifth and final story. These are the nerdiest states in America. Our fifth and final. Some data. Human interests, thought provoking story. We're talking about the nerdiest states. Okay, I want to guess, but let's talk about what does it mean to be a nerd? So that's a different question. I'm going to tell you how they judged it.

Okay. They surveyed more than 1,000 people to ask them about their home decorating habits and analyzed more than 3,100 Google search terms and phrases relating to nerdy house decorations, including terms like hobbit wreath iron man gaming chair to crown the nerdiest states in america so that's actually an interesting way of like gathering data and also defining a nerd like people who are really into books tv shows movies and games being into tv doesn't make you a nerd no but like when it's game of thrones right like you go to like comic-con it's like we're so nerdy no we are i mean we're into like electronics we read we're really

smart are we nerds by the way we're like kendall like you know like we're really not like other girls like we're kind of like nerdy yeah i just like kind of love to read and i don't want to you know go to parties i just want to like be home with my kindle and look if i am gonna go to a party like i'll probably just drink a beer because like that's what I like to drink. And I love Game of Thrones. Like not, you know, I was watching it before everyone was watching it.

And a lot of people were upset with the ending, but like personally, like we understood it, you know, because we read the books. Where George was coming from. Right. And his artistic vision

and why Kanye wants people to shop out of trash bags. Right. Okay. So given that, I think there's no rhyme or reason to this, honestly. And is the percentage has to be based of trash bags right okay so given that i think there's no rhyme or reason to this honestly and is the percentage has to be based on population right just because there's more nerds in california but it's a bigger you know we've got more nerds in california than oregon combined i was gonna say oregon for the top one no oregon's number 10 though so that's

pretty good okay because like people in like portland and like that area like they're like kind of like hipster like yeah like seattle yeah yeah that's washington but like that general area yes that pacific northwest it's very like granola portland is very yeah it's like the hipster capital of america yeah i don't know if everyone knows that yeah you don't something new it didn't say the most hipster state. I know but I associate like similar vibes. No but like hipsters don't watch Lord of the Rings and that's like you know hipsters read sure and they like do certain things they wear glasses. There's crossover. They wear glasses like nerds. There's a Venn diagram in the middle. There's there's definitely a crossover. In the middle is glasses but on one side is you

know like artisanal coffee beans. Right beans right on the other side is the hobbit right right going to comic-con yeah okay number one nebraska oh shocking number two new mexico also shocking number three nevada shocking because it's las vegas yeah but like that's literally like two miles of all of the state you know i guess number four utah also shocking number five kansas okay six arkansas you know arkansas spelled like our kansas yeah i wonder why well um actually it's spelled sorry that's wrong it's called Arkenstein. Oh. That's how it's spelled. Did I read it wrong? These states are all the same. Do you know what I mean?

Yeah. Maybe that's just because I'm not familiar with what the personality type of a typical Arkenstein is. No, but these aren't coastal states. Right. They're all kind of similar regionally in a sense. So I guess it's- Landlocked.

Regionally, it's nerdy region new york california is not on there no jersey no anything in the tri-state area no that's interesting yeah oh connecticut is number nine that's weird this study makes no fucking sense yeah no it was only like a thousand people surveyed and i just don't think that's a big enough sample i agree and that's i think the problem the biggest problem with Family Feud. They're asking 100 people. It's not enough. Yeah.

But I just want everyone to know Claudia chose this story. I did. I did. Well, we have been, like, in the last couple of years added to the weirdest fucking, like, Distros. Distros for, like, press releases when it comes to, like, we have, you know, interviews with gurus, random studies that, and we were looking for stories, i just like check my email i'm like oh we got one should we use it and yeah i love you know state by state analysis i love pitting states against one another in every different way i love lists you know like most popular halloween costume by state yeah most popular like porn you

love data i love the data you do no lie No lie. I really do. You know who you are? You're a nerd. You love crunching numbers. I love when the numbers are crunched for me. Yeah, of course. And I'm presented with what the data means. With like a snackable. And we can extrapolate from the data relevant information.

Yeah, but I don't feel like I was able to extrapolate anything from that moronic study. Because it was shitty data. It was a shitty, like, yeah, it was a good concept. But I don't feel like the. No lombardo homes no offense you should have spent your efforts looking at the most popular podcast by state we're still waiting that's what you should have done we're still waiting we're waiting cautiously though yeah no because like we're scared only release it if we're on it at least once you know yeah if it's not just like thrown in the, you know, oh, the study has been compromised. The data has been compromised.

Those were the Fast Five Spirits. You definitely needed to know every single one of them. And I'm so glad we did. Every last one. That is our show. Our second to last episode of the week. We're back tomorrow. Anything else we need to like plug?
