Good morning, millennials! Welcome back to the Morning Toast. Happy hump day! Oh my
god, it's wed-nest day. Happy wed-nest day. Happy hump day to everyone who celebrates.
And hey, Jax. How you doing? I'm doing great. Happy hump day. It's a special hump
day because Bruno, you can't see him, which is so unfortunate for you. Disgusting.
He got groomed this morning. He's so- Oh my, Theo's getting groomed today.
Gorgeous with his fresh crop.
He's so handsome for his mommy.
And he wanted to come on the show
to show everyone his new look.
So everyone, this is Bruno's fresh top.
He has a fresher haircut than his mommy.
And he's so excited to be here.
You know what must be nice about being a dog?
Like you get a haircut
and since they don't really have like emotional intelligence,
like there's no breakdown that ensues afterwards.
You know, like no pulling your hair out in the bathroom.
No freaking out that your hair is too short.
Like it's just a haircut.
That must be like what it's like to be a boy.
Or they're freaking out on the inside, have no way to communicate that he doesn't like this haircut
that I give him every few weeks and that he wants his long mane like Samson. Potentially, but I think my idea of what it's
like is better. I think Bruno loves having short hair, even though this isn't the typical Cavalier
crop. Cavaliers are meant to be very long and, you know, grown dogs, grown out, very long hair. But
Bruno loves to play and you can't play
hard with with long hair like that so I think he loves his buzz cut Bruno loves to play hard
he plays hard he works hard and he plays hard ain't that the truth don't we all um it's Wednesday
we have a fabulous show for everyone we've got to your toasters which is a highlight of my week um
they're quite unique today I wonder how we going to get these girlies out of these pickles.
Well, I know if anyone can, it's us.
Hundred percent. Who are you going to call? We'll solve any crime by
dinner time. Who are you going to call? Dear Toasters.
So before we dive in, a little shameless
self-promo. GirlWithNoJob.com slash tour. I have a show so before we dive in a little shameless self promo
girlwithnojob.com slash tour
I have a show tomorrow in Red Bank, New Jersey
very limited seats left, I suggest you come
and then I'm headed to the
PNW, Pacific Northwest
Portland and Seattle
in September, so girlwithnojob.com
slash tour, if you like what you see here
come see me on tour, I'm going to do stand up
we're going to have a good time, we're going to drink spritz
you're going to hang out with like. We're going to drink Spritz.
You're going to hang out with like-minded individuals, which is really one of the better parts of the Not Like Other Girls tour
is being around like-minded individuals.
Definitely.
So when are those PNW shows, just so I know when you'll be leaving town?
I know because it's my wedding anniversary.
I have to do better about booking shows around personal times.
This tour was Ben's birthday and our anniversary.
So he's not too happy with me.
But like I have to work on my art, you know?
100%.
Okay.
So that's September 18th.
17th and 18th.
Okay, cool.
Yeah, no, that's like right when I was planning on coming to New York.
So I'm glad I know that.
I'm glad you shared that information with me.
Oh, lordy lord.
It's okay. I haven't booked my I can pivot pivot like sometimes the show would be so much better if you watched friends no I think the show would be worse I think it's so important that
we represent both camps of friends files and friends loathers you are that of the latter
friends loathers and you are a friend's file yeah Friends loathers. And you are a friends file.
Yeah, I guess that's true. Like it's important to have dynamic discussions here on the Morning
Toast, which is exactly what we do. I just wish, you know, I wish you could understand like my
references, you know? I do understand a lot of them because you explain them to us.
It's just like not as fun when you have to explain. Okay, well, I'm glad that we're,
we really don't do that anymore. You've kind of moved on from Friends. I feel like you don't not that you've
moved on you're just you know in a different place. I feel like the way that you used to watch Friends
now you read books for comfort. A hundred percent and I just with Friends for me I like go in waves.
There'll be like a period of weeks where I'll just rewatch it.
And so it's very topical and, you know, top of mind.
But then, you know, there are weeks and months that go by that I don't watch it.
When I'm on tour, I watch it.
If the hotel has like a Chromecast, I love a good Chromecast.
Great.
I couldn't be more proud that through my work and my endeavors,
you have replaced watching Friends with Reading Books.
My work here is done
a hundred percent like what are you doing you're washing your hands of me you know I can set you
free and let you fly and you can work on someone else who should I work on next
there's only so many people who will allow me into their personal space to work on them the thing is you should work on
Ben oh getting him to read actually you know who I've been hates when I read you know who I've been
working on though Olivia it's going nowhere oh okay because like the when you try and get to
turn someone into a reader the first step is like deconstructing what they know about reading
because what we all know about reading is like Torture Fest 2000 from high school, like having a pit in your stomach when the summer's almost over
because you haven't started the curious incident of the dog in the middle of the night. Like the
sheer anxiety and panic that would come from books when we were kids has stuck with us all
well into adulthood. It's not even that actually that I confront with some reticent
readers. It's that they think they know what reading is about. They're like, no, I know I
read sometimes I, and I don't want to Kindle. I like the feeling of a book. And when there's a
book I want to read, I read it and I read on vacation, but it's like, you're closing yourself
off to a world of opportunity. They think that reading means, you know, no TV, no fun. It's just
rigorous scholastic work. And it's all the TV, all the fun, plus your imagination and your brain
is doing some legwork. Anyways, it's that it's like Olivia being like, no, I know about reading.
I just don't want to do it. Yeah. But you don't know about reading. Yeah. And I also think that people really underestimate like how much time they have.
Like I think when people think of their free time, like they want to watch TV and scroll
on their phone and like be with their families.
And you can fit reading into that.
Like you definitely can.
And look at Claudia who scrolls on their phone, watches TikTok and beats with their family
more.
And don't get me wrong.
My screen time on TikTok
has definitely gone down, but it's still above average. It's taken a hit. It's taken a hit,
but I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing for me. Not at all whatsoever. So I'll work on
Olivia and Ben, two extremely stubborn people, very set in their ways. But you know who's more
stubborn? Me. Yeah, it's true. Like you're not stubborn. You're persistent.
Persistent.
Especially when I know what's good for you.
Literally the only time in recent memory, like ever actually since knowing Ben, he read
my book, which honestly I did not think he was going to do.
Like he went into the living room like on a Sunday.
I think my book came out on Tuesday and he waited till the very last minute and he sat
on the couch and read the whole thing in a matter of hours.
And I was like 95% sure he was just sitting there playing video games.
I was like watching him on the dog camera.
But he did read it.
But besides that, the one time that Ben, in the time that I've known him, which is almost
10 years now, the one time he came close to reading a book was when we were on vacation
and we were both in Hudson News.
And I didn't read back then either.
But I'm like, let's get like cute books like for the trip.
I bought, I want to say it was Drew Barrymore's memoir like it was in the airport it was like the
closest thing to something that I would read um and Ben bought Aziz Ansari's memoir like didn't
read a page but like if you ask him what the last book he read was he will say Aziz Ansari and like
what his favorite book is Aziz Ansari literally that's
really funny okay I so I would love that because he hates when I read like every time he comes into
the room and like I'm not watching tv and I'm just reading he's like oh my god you're reading again
like he just complains about it he doesn't want to see you thrive honestly he doesn't want to see
me further my education I want to see you advance yourself scholastically he doesn't support women
in literature he doesn't support women in literature.
And for a man who's married to a New York Times bestselling author,
that's disgusting.
It's disgraceful.
He doesn't support literate women.
He just doesn't.
He supports illiterate women.
And that's disgusting.
Damn.
Not right. Extra, extra.
Read all about it.
Ben Sopper does not support literacy in women and
honestly I expect a full rebuttal from him on his podcast good guys from toast news network now
available anywhere stream podcasts um I did finish a book last night that like you know when you go
off of goodreads like you troll goodreads it's so hit or miss like I found every summer after
before it became trendy I read it before everyone else on Goodreads.
And I was grateful to the Goodreads algorithm
for bringing me to this book.
The Goodreads algorithm
kept shoving this one book in my face.
And I was like, you know what?
Maybe like I should just lean in.
What book?
The Spanish Love Deception.
When I tell you,
I was embarrassed to be reading this book.
It was not good.
And I liked the characters.
That was the thing.
Like, I liked both the main characters.
Like, the girl, she had spunk.
You know, I liked her.
She was, like, this fiery Latina.
Like, I really liked her.
The guy was, of course, like, stoic, you know, former football player.
Like, really, like, my favorite.
But, like, everything else just, like, stunk.
And I just know it's it's coming it's being pushed
like Goodreads has an agenda and they're pushing it on you and the Spanish love deception is a part
of that agenda and I just want to I want to warn everyone like don't get tricked like it's not good
yeah Goodreads is an amazing platform I would say you know 99% of the time like it is everything it needs to be but sometimes it's just very
like a biased and almost like they have an agenda right like they personally wrote the book
themselves and they want as many people to read it as possible or they're getting money you know per
or they work with certain publishers or whatever but or it's just like those are the books that
surface because that's what everyone's reading because that's what like the book world has put forward.
You know what I mean?
Maybe Goodreads is just like a victim of publishing politics.
A hundred percent.
And so are we.
We're merely victims.
Merely victims.
I am reading my book so slowly because I just haven't had the time.
I was at like 15% yesterday and I started it like six days ago, but it just got crazy. Like
now I'm only at 20% now and like, oh my God, it's insane. It's called Before We Were Years by Lisa
Wingate. And apparently it's based on true things that happened. This isn't a true story, but the
crazy thing that happened and it seems like it's happening is something that did happen. And I'm
just like in the world or to the author in the world.
Got it.
And I'm not okay.
It's really,
it's sickening.
Like it's,
it's a book where it's like a physical reaction to what's going on.
So I really want to get through it because then we are recording the red
heads next week.
So I have to get through it.
We're reading everything I know about love by Dolly Alderton. It is a snitch's choice for everyone who loves to jump in on a
snitch's choice come in the water's warm but snitch kind of shook things up this month which
I love for her since we've read literally the same book three books in a row from her because this is
a memoir and it's apparently very self-reflective about like your 20s what you learn along the way
I think what from what I've read from the redheads who have already read it they relate to different pieces
of it some people relate to the whole thing some people relate to less or more so I'm really
excited to have a conversation about like what the fuck we're up to in our 20s snitches growing up
snitches growing up that's the headline snitches growing up and ben doesn't support literate women that's today's title should it be ben doesn't support literate women or
ben supports illiterate women but illiterate women deserve support so right that's true and
it sounds condescending like there's literally it's not that like there's nothing bad about
being illiterate like no you know what i mean honestly if you're saying he supports them it kind of sounds like he's trying it sheds him
in a positive light and he's trying to help them become literate which is not what he's doing
no no he's not reading to them no ben doesn't support literate women
she's not a christian she could be a jew and believe in god ain't that the truth says oh
my god i saw the most insane you know when like you've seen enough internet yeah yeah like the
internet has out interneted itself there was like this thread on Twitter and like people were being dead fucking serious
talking about Anne Frank having white privilege. And I was so
shook up by this conversation. I really couldn't.
That's what I had to start reading.
That's why I finished my book, because I said, you know what, internet?
Not today.
I've seen enough today.
Thank you so much.
Was this a conversation between serious people, or how did you find it?
Okay, so it went so viral, because somebody had tweeted it.
Like, you know, I'm going gonna figure out the right way to phrase
this but um I don't really know if there is and Frank had white privilege and I was like
and the replies so privileged right the replies were so like mixed but the the tweet had like
thousands of retweets and favorites I'm like there's no way people don't think this is crazy, right?
Yeah. And that's when I really like I had had enough. Yeah. I've seen what I've needed to see.
Good day. But what's crazy is like there probably are a lot of people aside from in the mixed
reviews who like would be like, yeah, she did. Yeah. Or at least like entertain the conversation.
And you know what?
Personally, I'm not going to like I'm not even going to explain to you why that's so fucking stupid.
Beyond.
Beyond.
So that's what I did last night.
I read a book after seeing enough.
After seeing enough.
Yeah, I had a productive evening as well.
Little, you know, emails, emails, emails.
If you got an email for me at 11 p.m.
What's up? I'm so glad you brought that up speaking of emails you were 100% right that JLo was doing not a
Vogue exclusive but on the JLo.com exclusive she released the sneak peek pics of her wedding
on her newsletter and she posted on her Instagram at like literally noon like sneak peek on the
JLo.com and I had signed up yesterday.
You all saw me sign up.
No, two days ago.
You all saw me sign up.
That email did not come in for several, several hours.
I got it around 7 p.m.
Do you think that they crashed on the JLo server?
No.
What I do think, though, is somebody who works in like email marketing had messaged me like
if they have your email on file as being previously unsubscribed, like you get pushed to the back.
Why is it like a cue for emails? I didn't realize when there's this newsletter,
some people get it sooner than other people. It's technology.
I have no idea. But I do think her releasing the photos on the JLo.com was the best thing
that ever happened to Chris Appleton because he posted a lot of his photos on Instagram and TikTok and
like why subscribe when you could just see it on Chris Appleton yeah well we have a story about
JLo and her wedding looks today so save all your thoughts yeah because there's also there's things
going on with Leah uh-oh our resident expert Leah Remini Stan will dive in after the break after the break
don't go anywhere we'll be right back you know I do love being like a personality in new media
like a digital girly but part of me like was meant to be like hi I'm Claudia Autry and this
is your eyewitness news movie minute no offense that was like a little, um, stale.
Like lackluster.
Yeah.
Okay, hold on.
Try again.
I don't know why I was like taking it too seriously.
You're like depressed, maybe because you're like working for the news.
Yeah, at like some low-level local news show.
She's a weather woman in Alaska.
Hi, I'm Claudia Oshry, and this is your Eyewitness News Movie Minute.
That was definitely more effervescent, but just for me, like, I just knew it was, you know, a front because we just saw your last take.
Okay, no, wait, let me do it one more time.
Okay.
After the break, man chained to a well for 65 years emerges.
And he's a Jew?
Don't go anywhere.
We'll have the answers when we come back oh that
was good well you like in another world like should have been you know an actual TV anchor
anchor yeah like when you were in college you hosted the Colgate Centennial or whatever that
yeah it was called was it a radio channel it was like a little web show. I Carly.
Little web show.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No, I guess that was that was like my dream job.
But this is so much better.
This is so much better than that.
Literally.
I'm like, I don't think anyone will hire me.
All right.
No.
With your disgraced background, girly.
Good luck.
You better.
We both better pray to the
lord that this show stays successful for as long as possible because the odds of us getting another
job after yesterday on the show i said build the wall like no uh but the good news is the uh the
way this show stays successful or not is completely dependent on us so yeah and by the way like if you
missed yesterday's episode like i didn't say it in this serious,
like it was a joke.
Okay.
Like please,
I'm not about to cancel myself again.
It was a really funny segment.
You should check it out.
100%.
100%.
Okay.
I think without further ado,
it is time to die.
I guess when I do this part,
this is like me on my anchor woman grind.
Yes.

they don't talk like that though but

I don't think you're ready for this duty.

Are you ready for our first story?
Yes. Jennifer Lopez has shared the three ralph loren wedding
dresses that she wore for her nuptials with ben affleck in an epic all-white wedding ceremony at
his georgia home on august 20th she sported three ralph loren gowns in one night the first which
she wore to walk down the aisle was a twist on the designer's classic turtleneck column dress
with over a thousand handkerchiefs and 50 meters of fabric they were cut into ruffles and attached by hand the bride also wore nearly
a hundred thousand dollars worth of mikimoto jewelry pairing delicate white pearl and diamond
earrings with a matching floral ring she also shared two more wedding dress looks each one more
stunning stunning and i would say extravagant than the next because usually
you start with the big one down and then you get more comfortable and then a comfortable
jumpsuit mini dress exactly not for JLo though she went for all the way all the way glamour glamour
glamour so um I find it so interesting like J-Lo and Ben thus far have been just like
extreme thirst monsters about their whole relationship.
And I feel like there wasn't really any hoopla around these pictures.
And that's because she did on the J-Lo.com.
Like, it kind of muffled the excitement, I think.
Yeah.
As if it had been like a People exclusive, a Vogue exclusive, Martha Stewart Weddings
exclusive, the Not exclusive.
Like, it just wasn't as big of a deal. Um, and I guess like she sacrificed that PR moment to gather data
for her tech company, which is totally fine. Um, I just feel like, like nobody cares.
Yeah, I agree. I really hope that these emails are worth it. Like email marketing is big business.
And if you have a huge list of email subscribers, like you can sell that for a ton of money so I'm the business woman in me is like great but also
the business woman to me is like JLo has like so many business ventures like did you really need
these emails yeah like honestly we're not living in the dot-com boom anymore like I don't think
her like you could sell data for a good amount of money but like not as much as you used to be
able to I think it's still big business data is the most valued um commodity in the world
more than oil yeah I guess more than oil but like she's when I signed up like you just need your
email like some people do first name last name birthday gender like give me your email and I'll
give you the world.
That's literally should be a slogan for OnTheJLo.
OnTheJLo.com. Give us your email.
We'll give you the world. Give us your email and you
won't stop hearing from email
marketing companies for the rest of your life and you'll
have to start a new email and take that email off your
phone because you're getting more spam than actual
productive emails. Wait. JLo's
giving Jen Shaw energy.
No, I mean this is all legal and i don't
think she sold her database no i was kidding it's totally legal it's just annoying and it's just
weird and kind of lowbrow for someone of jlo's status and i just don't understand how it's such
big business when it's like when i get an email from someplace that i did not subscribe to even
when i get it to like something i did subscribe to because I shopped online straight to deletion don't even open it like how is that no and to the person who invented
like the unsubscribe button on apple kiss me on the mouth yeah that and the one where if you get
a verification passcode it comes up as like we're living in the future Jackie to that person kiss
me on my butthole literally like i love this man yeah or
a woman or a woman i would love to whoever the person who invented the code thing where it pops
up you don't have to leave the screen literally fellatio for all we need more capabilities such
as that one yeah like actually making our lives better not just making us buy new chargers every
month i have so many chargers because all of my devices now require different charge my new ipod has a lightning
cable my two computers have two different chargers me too you don't need that one
no like being a tech girly means having if you could see this i know you haven't been here
in a month if you could see this studio like Like there's curds everywhere. Same here.
There shouldn't be curds everywhere.
I cleaned up the studio before I left.
It looks nice.
No but every time you go back and forth.
I turn it.
You have to reset.
I have to reset.
Exactly.
That's tough.
And so I can't even tape down curds.
Because then you come back.
Yeah.
No.
Curds will be.
Like aren't we supposed to be like in a technological like I thought
I thought we're curd cutting aren't we curd free like yes but then okay so you want a curd cut you
could have some like wireless charger that one you need to charge and two craps out very quickly
no I I know I know so the moral of the story is JLo looked gorgeous at her wedding
she did she looked very beautiful um no surprise just kind of no they just like this whole thing
gives nothing yeah but you know what maybe she just like wants to be not she's not low-key she's
never going to be but she's like instead of being like so extra with ben like let me make
some money yeah and i'll accomplish the same thing everyone's going to be obsessed with my
wedding regardless and like then i don't have to like thirst out people though whatever it is
speaking of the weddings though since they didn't get j-los they got sarah highland and wells adams
wedding photos which were quite gorgeous and questions have been answered
as to was Bachelor Nation schmoozing with Sofia Vergara and the answer is big fat yes yeah and
you know what actually made me have like a lot of respect for Wells because not only did he still
invite like his bachelor friends who are like lowbrow compared to Sofia Vergara and the cast of Modern Family. But he doubled down.
Literally everyone was there.
There was 25 Bachelor contestants.
Yeah, he didn't make cuts.
I thought that was really cool.
Like very, like stand up guy of him, you know?
Yeah.
It's easy to drop your loser friends when you're married to literally an actress from
the biggest show of all time, you know? Yeah, I Harrison was there and Chris Solis was there the Chris's were
out and about Nick Vile Jason Tardik Caitlin Bristow everyone Ben Higgins yeah which was
really nice you know I don't give a lot of real estate in my mind to Wells and Sarah Hyland I know so many people
are obsessed with them I and I like when they got together I thought it was the coolest thing and
then you know their ship is at sea and I've I've moved on but so it hadn't really sunk into me like
what the fact that they're together that they're now married and he's from The Bachelor and she
at one point like was on the highest paid show on television and they're married from like just
dms and it's just so beautiful to see no it really is and now like it's we we're completely immune to
it because it's become so normalized but like lest we not forget the time when there was like
speculation they're like there's no way and then they. And it was just like a crazy time to be alive.
Yeah.
And it couldn't have happened to like a really,
like a bigger mensch in Bachelor Nation.
Like everybody exclusively has nice things to say about him.
He wasn't this like dick who was like the hottest guy on the show.
He was just like this really handsome, nice, salt of the earth guy.
And that came through.
And Sarah liked what she saw.
Nice guys don't finish last moral of the
story no they really don't they really don't she looks beautiful and they got married in Santa
Inez which will always be the engagement of Raquel and James and James from Vanderpump Rules
also which leads to our next story which leads beautifully into our next story I couldn't have
planned it any better.
Sheena Shea and Brock Davies are married inside the Vanderpump Rules' couple's Mexico wedding.
So J-Lo sent her exclusive to On the J-Lo.
Sarah Hyland sent hers to Vogue.
And Sheena sent hers to People.
And I'm loving all this exclusive content.
No, but you know what?
Everyone, everyone who you just mentioned
should be extremely grateful to J-Lo.
Because if J-Lo had then taken Vogue,
it would have knocked everyone down.
Then it would have been Sarah and Wells with people.
Sheena and Brock, an okay magazine.
Yeah, like everyone would have gotten knocked down a peg.
But no, J-Lo is a bride who supports other brides.
And because she wanted her own data,
she lifted everyone up.
We're moving on up.
Exactly.
So congratulations are in order for Sheena and Brock.
The Vanderpump World stars tied the knot on Tuesday in front of their closest family and
friends at the Dreams Natura Resort and Spa in Cancun, Mexico.
People exclusively confirms.
Sheena said, I just wanted us to have a good time with every person who is important to
us.
She said they were happy to be able to get that time for a few days with all of our friends
and family to celebrate us.
The stars were joined by a slew of their co-stars, including Ariana Maddox and Raquel Levis,
who were part of Sheena's bridal party, as well as Tom Sandoval and Tom Schwartz, who
acted as two of Brock's groomsmen.
Brock said they're a big part of our lives.
Guests also included past cast members like Jax, Brittany, and Kristen.
So no Stassi, no Katie. No Stassi, no Katie. Not surprising, especially like, I don't even know if,
well, first of all, Sheena wasn't at Stassi's wedding. And maybe even if Stassi was invited,
like she has a baby. So you just, you don't go to everything. You can't dance at every wedding
anymore. And did you say Lala was there? Lala was there because I saw it on Lala's Instagram,
but she wasn't mentioned in this article. Now I have a lot to say. I'm going to start with, um, all the
positive things because they're mostly positive. Just this article gets a little weird because
like the person didn't change the tenses in the pitch email. It says Sheena will be serving her
guests. They will be dining on and they can look forward to fireworks. Like it's, it's giving lazy,
but yeah,
Sheena looked so gorgeous.
I was watching Lala's video.
She,
her and Brock did their first dance.
I didn't watch with sound.
I think that would have made it better.
But then at one point,
like Sheena walks off and she brings back summer and the three of them dance
together.
And I seriously had chills.
Like I know that Sheena and Brock are Sheena and Brock.
And we can talk about that any other time.
But if you suspend disbelief just while watching this video.
I'm not thinking about all that we saw last season today.
I'm just not.
I'm thinking about the beauty and it looked so beautiful.
Sheena looked beautiful and I'm so happy for her.
I hope this is everything that she wants.
And I truly was taken with how absolutely stunning she looked.
Okay, two things.
One, wereck's children there
they didn't make the people magazine article if they were and i'm gonna say that they're not i'm
sure that'll be a storyline i'm sure that they weren't i'm sure that they weren't as well and
the second thing was i was was i the only one who was like really surprised that these two had a
formal wedding like after their shenanigans last year like wanting to literally like use the tablecloth from
James and Raquel's engagement party as Sheena's veil like I was like I was just shocked that they
would then throw their own formal event well I think that I feel like Sheena would probably have
always wanted a wedding she is very traditional traditional and quite choogy in that sense and maybe she always planned to do
that but all the other stuff you know and we've all been there like it doesn't have to be the
biggest and the baddest so maybe they just wanted to like get it into the show have it nice and
maybe they also might have learned from that and been like let's do our own thing let's have our
own moment right and sheena had like the very typical LA traditional wedding lest we not forget
Mike Shea um so she probably just wanted like this one to be like smaller and like actually fun
but it doesn't look like it was small it looks like you know a first wedding oh so I'm sure she
wants all like I'm that doesn't surprise me though for Sheena like Sheena's gonna give everything her
all yeah and that's like one of her best
and worst qualities. So here is where the article, you know, it's a really long article filled with
so many details. And eventually the writer just starts to copy and paste. Gives up. Afterward,
attendees will take to the roof for a cocktail hour, enjoying a wide selection of drinks and
appetizers. Guests will dine on a surf and turf steak and salmon menu during the reception, with a vegan lasagna also available as an option.
The newlyweds first...
Who cares?
The newlyweds first dance...
No, seriously, who cares what the vegan option at someone's wedding is?
Why is that an important detail?
I don't know.
The newlyweds first dance will be soundtracked by Leon Bridges' Beyond,
because Sheena says the song's lyrics are very close to their hearts.
Wait, here's an interesting factoid.
While they originally wanted their Vanderpump Rules co-stars band,
Tom Sandoval, and the Most Extras to perform,
complicated logistics led them to choose a DJ
instead for a reception entertainment.
Attendees will also be treated to a fireworks display
from Pyro Caribe.
The fun doesn't stop there as the night continues with an after party at an on-site c-note sheena will change into a short dress from casablanca bridal in newport
beach california as guests close out the night with tacos and more dancing with the help of
okay jackie seriously like let's not be negative so let's just stop reading okay
i'm just i'm being negative about
the tenses of this article you didn't need to include all of that and if you did just don't
pretend like it's straight from Sheena's email yeah and I really don't um want to be mean so
I'll just be quiet any thoughts on Tom Sandoval on the most extras like I said I really don't want
to be mean so I'll just be quiet.
And according to People Magazine, DJ James Kennedy was doing the after party.
I have been at many event that James Kennedy has DJ'd, and he's the real fucking deal.
Top man. No, he doesn't play his own music. He plays like that one song.
Top man, you're a bad man. She's dead.
But he's actually a pretty good DJ. Like, he gets lit. You know, the way he presses play on that iPod.
It's so unique.
Never been done before.
No, he's actually pretty good.
Like, he's a good DJ for a wedding after party.
With all your friends and your friends' DJ.
It's hard to find a DJ for the after party.
Who knows a DJ?
No, I know.
I know a playlist.
That's Fire Flames. Quarrensteins. Quarrensteins. knows a DJ? Yeah. No, I know. I know a playlist that's fire flames. 100%.
Quarantines. Quarantines.
It's a very mellow
chill playlist.
Because we're just chill girls. We're
not like other girls. We're
shy.

They're so luxurious, they've been beloved by three US presidents. Why I really like them is because I'm a very, you know, temperature conscious sleeper. And I find that a lot of sheets make me
so warm. They're not really breathable. And why I love Bull & Branch is because you really can feel
a difference. Like when you wake up, you're not in a pool of your own sweat. It helps control your
temperature. They're super soft. They wash really well. There's tons of reviews online, tons of five-star reviews that
are hella accurate. And a lot of my bedroom accessory, my bedroom tings are from Bowling
Branch as well. Like my waffle blanket, Jackie has it too in like a nude. I have it in blue.
I always get questions about it. So it really is like premium looking, like very aesthetically
pleasing, but also made of good quality threads.

branch.com promo code toast thank you so much claudia it's a pleasure next up nicole kidman
has lit the internet ablaze with her new tone muscles in her cover shoot for the magazine
called perfect have you seen these pics? A fake magazine called Perfect?
It's a UK magazine.
No one's talking about the magazine.
We're talking about the pictures.
Oh, my God.
By the way, celebrities are always on the cover of fake magazines like Grazia, you know,
like Wonderland.
Yep.
And I always wonder like how these random magazines like get celebrities. Wonderland. Yep. And I always wonder, like, how these random magazines, like,
get celebrities to be on the cover.
Like, it's always interesting.
I think it's a combination of things.
One, I think when you're really into that world, you know,
Wonderland is major.
But also, like, if a photographer,
a certain photographer, like, wants to work with you,
if you have a thing to promote, if there's, like,
a fashion thing element. Like, these pictures. And by the like these pictures grazia from at least my point of view like started out
as a fake magazine and now i think it's like pretty legit yeah but it's giving lydia from
real housewives of orange county nobleman yeah i mean nobleman has a lot of noble men on the cover
they actually had someone um pretty famous on the cover at one point do you remember who i'm
talking about yes i feel like it was like Matt Damon or something.
It was like someone's legit.
And I was like, Lydia, go off.
Well, no, Nicole Kidman is on the cover looking buff as hell.
And everyone is shook up.
She's showing off some seriously toned biceps, ads and quads in the photo while wearing a
colorful diesel tank top and modified gray belt turned skirt with a very
mod haircut that I do not believe is her actual hair short in the front long in the back and is
she looking like this for a particular role or that's just what she looks like on a day-to-day
basis it's giving that's what she looks like on a day-to-day basis I mean I don't know what she has
coming up next but she is shredded and and Nicole Kidman is like so many things like and she's one of those
gorgeous gorgeous women ever and I just never would have predicted that like she under that
fucking swole bro yeah no she'll beat you up she's swole as hell I mean you have to think like she
had to be in good shape to get away from that scary ass motherfucker Tom Cruise like and Scientology
as a whole you can't just run away if you're not in good shape, you know?
It's true.
So I always knew she was mentally very strong, you know?
Speaking of Scientology,
you never told us your Leah Remini tea.
No tea, but like there are reports
from like totally unsubstantiated and like un...
What's the word I'm looking for?
Reliable sources that like there is you know a break in the
friendship and that you know her relationship with Ben Affleck was the like catalyst for them
you know taking time apart Leah and JLo whoa but it's totally like it's like it's like Hollywood
Unlocked like it's not it wasn't until's not. Just like Kim and Pete breaking up.
Just like Kim and Pete being together and Kim and Pete breaking up.
Yeah.
But Nicole Kidman.
I love this woman.
I, you know, there are many people in Hollywood.
Like if I had to, even if I liked them a lot, like I could say negative things about, you know.
Even people I love.
Like if I had to come up with something mean to say,
like I could,
I literally have scoured every corner of my mind looking for something
negative to say about Nicole Kidman.
And I truly can't.
Yeah.
Queen.
Queen on her queen shit.
Oh,
also,
I don't know if you saw this report about Andrew Garfield.
No,
I saw his name,
but he's something about a role.
Yeah.
So he went on a crazy diet for six months,
you know,
to get in shape.
And I'm curious where Lily Reinhardt is.
Yeah.
She's been really quiet.
Yeah.
I just think where all the people who were like coming at Kim for wanting to
get into shape for the Met Gala.
Andrew Garfield did it.
Where's Andrew setting a bad example.
Such a terrible example.
Also,
Lily Ryan has a new movie on Netflix.
That looks really good.
Yes.
A lot of people are talking about it.
It's giving Gwyneth Paltrow sliding doors.
Like,
you know,
if you made this train,
your life would have been this way.
But if you'd miss the train,
your life would have ended out completely differently.
You know,
very butterfly effect.
Yeah.
Um,
similar, but not similar.
And it looks pretty good.
People are talking about it.
It does look good.
I hope to watch it someday, you know, if I find the time.
It's something that I would have watched in a heartbeat like a year ago.
Netflix is getting their claws into the Riverdale cast.
I'm sure they saw how well Riverdale performed on Netflix after the show would wrap on CW.
They have a new,
I think it's a show or a movie with Camila Mendes that looks also really good
giving high school realness.
And I love that for them.
Like good,
good call.
Yeah.
Agreed.
They should also really pick up Dynasty.
Cast.
Or the show.
They do.
No,
like pick it up officially. Oh, more seasons yeah yeah it has a huge international
following on Netflix I think actually Dynasty made more money for Netflix than the CW made
yeah so it would kind of behoove them to do what they did with like Gilmore Girls you know
yeah I would love that or Or Arrested Development.
Right.
Are you ready for our next story?
Just some positive relationship news.
So refreshing.
We haven't spoken about them in a while, but I just want everyone to know
that Channing Tatum and Zoe Kravitz
have celebrated their one-year anniversary.
They have now hit the one-year mark.
Wow, that flew by.
Sources are saying it's serious.
I mean at one year.
It's just like Ramona Singer says.
You need to know someone through every season.
And then it's serious.
So they have celebrated winter, spring, summer and fall together.
How old is Channing and how old is Zoe Kravitz?
Channing is 42.
Zoe Kravitz is 33. Okay that's a nice age and does
Zoe Kravitz have kids? No. No. No I don't think so. Because I wonder if that's like a next step
for them. Like he has a family with Jen and Duann. Like that part of his life is like almost behind
him. But she's 10 years younger and like that could be something she wants he only has he has one daughter so oh okay he'll go either way yeah I also feel like what he very
briefly dated um Jesse Jane Jay Jesse Jay Jesse Jay sorry oh my god there's so many Jesses you
know Jesse James Jesse James Dagger Jesse Jay Jesse Gardner um i feel like when he was briefly dating her was the time when she
was like talking a lot about her fertility and like her struggles with getting pregnant
almost as if like they were working on it together you know oh yeah so i think he does want more kids
like i think this relationship has potential like to have legs totally well a source is telling
people that they are very happy their careers are a big focus and they share this passion when they're off
they're very low-key they enjoy quiet date nights with friends but most often just hang out at home
Channing is serious about Zoe it's not a casual relationship they have been exclusive for a long
time I mean I hear that I hear that I totally forgotten about them, which is always a good sign of a public relationship.
Yeah.
Like they're just so blissfully happy to be annoying.
I want everyone to have that bit of good news today.
Like know that our ships are out to sea.
We only report whether they're,
when they're sinking or they're like fledgling new baby ships,
but not about like these rock solid couples that you would have never put
these two together,
but they're making it work.
I couldn't have said it better myself. Truly. Great great so now are you ready for our fifth and final story
I am yes yes I am it's a little true crime toast yeah because it has a social media component which
is where we come in so I I don't know if you've been following this story but a missing California
team named Keely Rodney has been missing for a few
weeks and law enforcement has been looking for her but a bunch of youtube divers did in 35 minutes
what cops couldn't do in two weeks in the search for her and they found her car and her body in a
lake the deep oh i saw this on tiktok the deep diving youtubers who claim to have found missing
california team Keely Rodney
said Monday it took them just 35 minutes,
even though authorities had spent nearly 20,000 man hours failing to find her.
Adventures with Purpose started searching Prosser Creek Reserve Reservoir early Sunday
and almost immediately found what they believe is 16-year-old's 2013 CRV
with a body inside, they said Monday.
It has now been confirmed that that
is her they said we began our search for keely at 10 40 a.m lead investigator doug bishop said in
an update on monday by 11 15 a.m one of the volunteers detected an object underwater using
cutting edge sonar technology they knew it was a car in roughly 14 feet of water and only 55 feet
offshore with divers soon confirming it was indeed
Kylie's vehicle we immediately notified family and law enforcement and her dad and grandpa were
on the scene within minutes also they have solved 23 other cold cases this team of divers and
youtubers wow okay so I actually had seen this on tiktok um there was like news footage
going around because the reservoir where they found her lake like had already been cleared by
police like they were like yeah we looked it's not there oh which is a huge stain on the police
department like come on seriously yeah um like a bunch of amateurs can find it and you already
looked there well they're not amateurs But there's no reason
Right that's what's clear
There's no reason why they should have access
To better technology
Better resources and manpower
Than law enforcement themselves
That's true
And I think that's an important point
Is that these people are not amateurs
Because I think people you know
Listen to one true crime podcast
And start like sniffing around
National parks for clues And I think a lot of the times people who
have their like good intentions just get in the way yeah for sure and make more of an issue for
police but it's nice that you know there's a happy ending here yeah well not a happy ending
obviously like a terror it's terrible story that a young girl is dead. Yes, but to have a conclusion and to have answers.
Do we have any answers as to like, was this nefarious?
Like, did she, was it an accident?
Would someone put her at the bottom of the reservoir?
I personally, I don't know.
And I think it's too soon to tell,
but hopefully we'll have answers soon.
But the founder of Adventures with Purpose
said that he started the group in July, 2018,
using his diving skills to clean up underwater habitats
riddled with garbage.
But then a family reached out to them in 2019
asking if they might be able to use their skills
to help find a missing loved one.
And he put their skills to good use.
Since then, they have helped families find closure
through their search missions,
including this particular one.
23 cold cases solved.
See, stuff like this happens a lot.
Like on TikTok sometimes, like I'll get,
there's a lot of people who go magnet fishing,
which is like you throw this very, very high powered magnet
into like a lake, a stream, any sort of body of water.
And it can attract anything metal from like 20 feet away.
It's like very, very powerful.
And sometimes they find, you know,
weapons that were used in like cold cases.
So things like that happen.
They can find a car.
So while I don't think it's like good for people,
like anyone to encourage, you know,
regular people to put themselves in danger
and like get in the way of police work.
Sometimes it does.
Like even with Gabby Petito, you know,
there was footage from like another, you know, group of
people who were camping or vanning through national parks and they had footage like that
actually helped the investigation. So sometimes it's good, but sometimes it's not. Yeah. I think
in this particular case, I don't think that message should be like more people should get
out there and try deep diving. But I think that perhaps this team could be training law enforcement around the country things like that no like they need a government contract yeah they're doing good
work and that's you'd love to see internet people making a difference you love to see internet
people making a difference and I'm just really um terrible story about this girl I'm wishing her
family you know peace in the upcoming weeks it It's going to be tough. Yeah.
Wow.
Unexpected true crime moment.
I know,
but I know how everyone responded
to the true crime moment
that you shared last week.
Plus,
with the social media component,
I actually,
I found that to be
a very riveting headline.
I also found the conversation
that we had about
true crime podcasts last week
to be really interesting because we got a lot of good feedback that a lot of like the really big
True Crime podcast, like what's the big one? Crime Junkies, Morbid. Yeah, yeah, yeah. True, true. Crime
Junkies. Drunkies. Crime Junkies. That they work with, you know, the families to raise money. They
work with all these great organizations, which was great great but then it got me thinking um and this is something I feel like Shannon Ford brought up
to me once because we're obsessed with like watching the podcast charts Morbid is the name
of like a really popular true crime podcast right yeah and they're in comedy yeah how what's funny
about crime I don't know I've never listened to it, so maybe it is funny,
but seems like a weird choice.
Yeah, you would have to listen to it to make that judgment. And it's not just me saying that because they're always ahead of us.
But on its face, yeah, what's funny?
I don't know.
Yeah, it seems like a very kind of insensitive category.
But again, I don't know.
Maybe we should listen.
I'd rather listen to The morning toast or good guys or mood with Lauren Elizabeth or the snatchler or caviar dreams with Margaret
Joseph's or girls night with Alexis Waters or the redheads book club because I heard it's never too
late to become a redhead or probably a podcast with Shannon Ford it's never too late to become
a redhead thank you for resurfacing that I just want to circle back to something from the beginning of the show. We're recording our episode next week.
Today would be the perfect time to decide to become a redhead and finish the book in time for
next Thursday's episode. This is your sign. This is your sign. If you've been looking for one,
maybe feeling like, oh no, everyone who's a redhead, like they have too many inside jokes.
I'll never get it. If I listen to the episode, I won't know about the girls or who's who.
It's not like that. It's not like that.
It's never like that.
You know what you should do?
Like an introductory?
Intro to Redheads that you can kind of just leave in the app store.
Bios on everyone, how you all know each other, whose book type is what.
Yeah, that's a good idea.
That is a good idea.
You're welcome.
I'll talk to the girls.
Try and get another.
It's hard enough finding one time a month.
It only needs to be like 20 minutes.
Yeah, no.
It doesn't need to be like a whole long ass episode.
I know, but we like to, we really like put a lot of quality into everything that we do.
Like nothing at the Redheads is below that standard.
And by the way, I think on a lot of podcast platforms, you can have like an intro episode.
A trailer.
Stay at the top.
Yeah.
So that every time someone comes to the Red Heads
it comes up right first
and then into the episodes
which I think is cool
okay we'll work on that
yeah just letting you know
so the show's not done yet
because it's
Wednest Day
which means it's
Dear Toasters Day

girlies totally anonymously it's dear toasters at gmail.com. Dear Jackson Claude, my husband and I,
we should also change
the name of the segment
from Dear Toasters
to Dear Jackson Claude.
Agreed.
But we'll leave it.
You know,
don't mess with perfection.
For now.
Rebrands are coming
like one day soon.
There will be rebrands
aplenty around here.
My husband and I
recently moved from the city
to the suburbs
about a year ago.
My husband has two good friends
that still live in the city
so occasionally
if they all hang out
at our house they end up staying super late, drinking, coming back to our house,
making late night food, and then just sleeping over. When they sleep at our house, they're set
up in the living room on a pullout couch. We have a small house and no guest room. We have a baby
and a dog, so in the morning I have to go into the kitchen, which is connected to the living room,
to make a bottle, make coffee, feed our dog, let him out, etc. I feel like I have to be quiet and not wake anyone up.
Mind you, it's like 6 or 7 a.m. when the baby wakes up,
but sometimes they'll sleep till like 11 or so.
I feel trapped upstairs when they wake up until they wake up and leave.
They're respectful, they clean up after themselves,
and they always thank us for our hospitality.
I understand the occasional staying the night if they've had too much to drink,
but sometimes it isn't planned.
Is it just me or is it weird that 30 year olds still have sleepovers I wanted to get your
thoughts thank you that's a little not not the vibe you know especially it's a little weird like
it's not necessarily weird you know it's nice that he's still close with his city friends and that
they feel comfortable enough and that like you know them you guys being in the suburbs isn't
going to stop them from doing what they want all night and if that means they're
going to be safe and then they crash at your place it's really nice that they still have that
relationship but there's a time and a place and a season for everything and having guys crash on
your couch while you have a newborn baby like it's just not the time or the place so I would
just say something to your husband and just try and figure out like a better solve.
Yeah.
And I don't think you would be having this problem if they weren't sleeping in the living
room.
Yeah.
Right?
Yeah.
So I would get creative with like futons in whatever other room you have, whether it's
an office, like something like a den.
I don't know what the house looks like.
And if this is truly your only option, then that's it.
But try and think creatively because it is really annoying like it halts your whole fucking day
when you can't even make a peep in the living in the main living spaces how often is this happening
that it actually is like bothering you to this issue if it was like a once you know a blue moon
thing you wouldn't be writing in like is this happening every few weeks if so like they need
to set a time for the night
to be over and have their uber take them back to the city like you're not being even if it's 3 a.m
like they need to know that that's when they're going or a hotel airbnb yeah like i don't want
to discourage your husband from like hanging on to friendships just because you guys moved like
it shouldn't really change anything but you're also in this transitional period in your life and like when you have a baby like you have to be
selfish and that means your husband's 30 year old friends can't sleep on the couch honestly like
grow up yeah especially if it's becoming this regular yeah if it's like once every six months
okay but if it's like once a month like that's fucking annoying yeah and like and also like at
some point have the uber to grown have the u Uber men are too grown to be having sleepovers.
I'm sorry.
I said it.
And mostly especially your husband.
Like he's married.
He has a baby.
Like what's he doing once a month up till 3 a.m.
Sleeping on the couch like.
No.
Yeah.
There's a time and a place and a season.
And this is not the season for that.
So you mama like you have to channel your mama energy and do what's best for you
and your family and
your baby.
And your dog.
Right.
Literally the dog has
to shit so bad can't
get anywhere because
fucking slobs living in
the living room.
And maybe he's a
little poop shy and
he's like oh no there's
guys on my couch.
And he's just expected
to take a dump in front
of these two random
people.
No.
He doesn't want to
like that.
Think of your dog.

We're in a pickle
and we need your help.
Our best friend Margo
has been dating
a pijam named Bryce
for about five years.
They're getting
engaged any day now
and Margo has
never been happier.
There's just
one problem. We are 99.9% sure that Bryce is gay. When they first started dating, we definitely
noticed he was a bit on the feminine side, super trendy and stylish, pretty flamboyant, but we
didn't think much of it. Over the last couple of years, some things have come to light from Bryce's
friends. His friend group consists of girls and openly gay men and we've met a majority of them.
Bryce's friends have shared with us that right before Margo and Bryce started dating,
Bryce had taken a secret trip to Paris with his openly gay best friend, Theo.
Bryce and Theo then moved in together, and soon after that, Bryce and Margo started dating.
We also ran into Bryce a few weeks ago while he was at brunch with his friends, which was 12 girls
plus him, and the way they were interacting
was as if he was the gay best friend.
We have an openly gay best friend in our group
and the brunch encounter we saw him
was giving very much similar vibes
to how we hang out with our gay bestie.
We have a lot of gay friends
and every time one of them has met Bryce,
they've asked if he was gay.
We could go on for days about all the suspicions,
but trying to keep it short.
Our main concern is that,
do we let Margo marry this man?
And then in 10 years when they're married with kids, it will come out and they'll get divorced. Meanwhile, we're the awful friends Okay, a lot to unpack here, to spare her feelings? Are we horrible friends for not voicing our concerns? Sincerely, two toasters who probably should have addressed this years ago.
Okay, a lot to unpack here.
But first, the first thing I want to say is like,
a lot of what you're saying that you're seeing
is like stuff that everyone else is seeing, including her.
Right, he's not hiding it.
Including her, like his personality, flamboyancy,
like, you know, close male friendships, close female friendships.
Like she's privy to all of these things that you're privy to. So like you're not telling her that
like the way that you're not telling her new information. Also, I mean, if this was my
almost fiance, like I would want to know that he's at brunch with 12 girls. Like the fuck are
you doing there? That's also nefarious. Imagine like your boyfriend's at brunch with 12 girls.
I would want to know that
so you that shouldn't have to be like a big sit down you're just like by the way I saw Bryce at
brunch with 12 girls like you're cool with that why weren't you the 13th like right that's where
my mind would go see my opinion on this has changed recently because I feel like I was in a
similar situation with somebody that I knew who everyone was like when we were growing
up like oh he's gay he's always hanging out with girls but he wasn't like he just had you know
great female friendships um and it wasn't weird and then people eventually stopped you know saying
it um but then he came out so at first I would have been like you know if he's doing all this
and he's comfortable like being you know friends with gay guys and going on trips with them and hanging out with a lot of girls, like somebody who's in the closet wouldn't do that.
But now I don't know because.
Right, but OK.
Yes.
But so say he had a girlfriend for five years.
What would you tell her that she doesn't already know and see with her own two eyes?
And right.
That's true.
That's true.
I wasn't seeing anything.
She's the one who's like having sex with him like she would know yeah more than
you possible by the way that he's bi and she knows and maybe they don't need to talk about it to
everyone and put their label everywhere like you don't know what they know right so the only thing
that it sounds like maybe she doesn't know because you just found this out is that the trip to Paris
with Theo and living together so I would just like be like by the way I didn't know that
Bryce and Theo like went to Paris together like and live together like what how is that yeah and
just in case she didn't already know don't act like you're telling her just make sure that she
knows by mentioning it the most important point was the one that you made which is like everything
that you are privy to she is
privy to as well.
Like she's not blind.
She sees what you see.
And either they've
spoken about it or she
doesn't care.
Like she wants to get
married.
She wants to be in a
relationship.
So I don't really think
there's anything you can
do.
Just make sure you bring
up Paris with Theo.
Yeah.
That's the only. and you can poke and
prod but and like when you see her man at brunch with 12 girls like tell her that you saw that
regardless of then like she might like sexual orientation she might like start to get annoyed
with you like no but you don't have to be a snitch just be like yeah well the brunch with 12 girls is
yeah snitchery snitchy behavior but the paris with theo like that's you
know just interesting fact yeah be like i'm planning a trip to paris like can i ask bryce
about his trip with theo what they do love that love um best of luck truly hello jackson claude
and brazen's right hello i hope you're well because i am not. Long story short, we had an event at my work where an esthetician was there performing
mini facials.
She doesn't have a spa and she travels to people's houses.
While she was there, she mentioned that I should book her and that she would hook it
up.
I texted her last week and she said, oh, I would love to treat you to a facial.
I think, oh, so nice, a free facial.
I say to her, oh my God, a treat that is so generous,
you don't have to do that.
She then says it's her pleasure and would love to do so.
She sends a booking and the price says $0.
Fast forward, she gets to my house, does the facial
and then goes, okay, so I'll do $20 off today,
it'll be $200.
I was literally so flabbergasted
and I told her that I thought this was free
and she basically gaslit me into thinking that I was wrong. I was so shocked I paid her on my credit card just to get her out of my
house. My question is should I charge back my card? Should I tell her how grossly uncomfortable
I felt in my own home so she doesn't have to do this again to anyone? I completely forgot this
ever happened or should I completely forget this ever happened and block her number? I know this
is partially my fault and that I should have clarified, but I was completely misled and she just let me take it and run.
I just feel like she has to know how awful this was.
And she should have just said like, hey, my problem.
It's free.
Sorry.
I have literally lost sleep over this.
I feel so dumb.
And not only was this facial $200 astronomical for a facial,
but I could get one for half the price at a men's spa.
Sincerely, a now poor toaster. Okay okay I unless you're gonna be running into this girly like I would just block forget move on but like if you're gonna be seeing her a lot maybe it's worth
you know fixing but at this point she's a stranger you know she gave you a facial one time no but I
think that this is this person's like marketing tactic I think that this wasn't an accident I don't think that there was a miscommunication I think that she wanted you
to think you were getting a free facial hoodwinked you into getting that facial and then came in with
that like it said price zero dollars she said she wanted to treat you to a facial like I think like
this person is kind of running a scheme here now you should report her to the better business
bureau I don't know what you do with that information and like who you even tell her like you leave a yelp review or something
the bbb but I don't think that was an accident I think that you do have to pay her for the service
because it like wasn't you know in writing or anything that this was going to be even though
it was but it was it said zero dollars I know but that's in the book shady business and i don't think you should feel stupid because she she hoodwinked
you she did that on purpose i think she did that i don't think you should feel stupid but i think
it's the important lesson is like nothing there's no such thing as a free lunch like sometimes there
really is like sometimes there really is and especially why would this random woman give
a girl a facial who she met one time at a work event maybe like it was to show her how good the
facial like it could be marketing I'll give you a free facial then you'll be right but no instead
this is what she's doing like tricking people and to spending $200 with her I well you know what I
would do I would like go search Yelp her Instagram comments the better
business bureau see if anyone else has complained about this or she just like wanted to dupe you
even though I'm sure it's a pattern make sure that like this is something she frequently does
and then blow her up seriously that's what the better business bureau is for yeah okay good idea
I do think I think that you have to pay it because it's really like she paid it already
but she's saying should I call my credit card company and like and not pay it yeah yeah
that's like I don't know because like what if it was just like a genuine miscommunication and then
you're like taking money out of her pocket you know from the way she's describing it I really
don't think it was a miscommunication oh well you know what I would do your research see if anyone else has said anything similar
and if they have charge that bitch back on the credit card yeah you just need a little bit of
certainty a little bit of proof that you're not the only one I don't think you're the only one
I think you were taken advantage of me too I think it's a pattern it's giving Netflix documentary
yeah it's giving the Polka King.
