Starting point is 00:00:00 Good morning, Millennials! Happy Friday! Hey, Claude, you want to bring us into today's episode with song? Yes, I do, you guys! It is Friday, Friday, gotta get down on Friday! Everybody's looking forward to the weekend, weekend! Friday, Friday, getting down on Friday. Wow, it's Friday, you guys. We fucking did it. We did it. It's just so exciting that it's Friday, honestly. It's another gloomy day here in New York, which made waking up really difficult.
Starting point is 00:00:38 And it was made easier knowing that we have two days of alarm-free living coming up. And isn't that something? It's really rainy here in Pennsylvania, too too but it's a mood for sure and we're just rolling into the weekend you guys like we're feeling blessed we're feeling de-stressed how are you feeling Jackie another day another LC update I am feeling okay like I'm really starting to you know be at my wits end right down and the mornings are when I'm feeling my best and if I'm really starting to, you know, be at my wits end here. Break down. And the mornings are when I'm feeling my best. And if I'm coming on here saying like, I don't know, then I can't even imagine what the afternoon has in store for me. The evenings are just like so uncomfortable.
Starting point is 00:01:15 I can't even. Like I just, I can't. I'm so sorry. You're so close to the end. I know. Your maternity leave starts at the end of next week we're here we're supporting you if you need to take a day off you let me know I'll just talk to myself for an hour I think people will just love that um but we're so proud of you we're so proud
Starting point is 00:01:34 of you thank you thank you no but doing the show really like gets my spirits up and it's nice to like have something have some purpose so um I just need to shake off these like cobwebs I mean like my neck is kind of just everything fucking hurts and it's all coming down at once and it's just really really crazy and then like the my sleep is getting worse which is affecting my mornings which were my best part of day when you like walk around your house and like go pee and stuff do you think like oh my god my water could break at any moment I don't think you're there yet are you I don't think I don't feel like I'm there yet and people say um the baby drops like lower into your belly before it's time to get ready and I don't know that baby has
Starting point is 00:02:14 dropped okay I don't feel like I feel like I would know and I don't think that he has so I think you would know for sure so I think I'm not worried necessarily about that but when I'm walking around my apartment I'm just like waddling like it's so cliche the way that you move around like hands on belly hands on back just like from side to side like a big big old lady you're a big woman and we're so excited for you like this is just the first toast baby like that that is so crazy. It's so crazy. Can I ask you a question? Me? Yeah. When are you going home and what are you doing this weekend?
Starting point is 00:02:52 I don't know. You don't have shows this weekend, right? No, next weekend. So like that's why I've just really been like taking it easy. Ben is away. Ben was in Florida working and I was on a golf trip with his friends. So I would have been home alone all week, which, you fucking hate right right no no and you know I fully endorsed your decision to make a week of it I'm just like wondering uh when you come home well I'll probably
Starting point is 00:03:14 come home after the weekend because I have a lot of stuff to do next week and we have an amazing guest coming in studio next week so I have to get back to the real world yeah you're sadly not going to be there I'm not going to be there but I think I'll just submit like a list of questions and you can just like say these come from Jackie please yes okay cool no problem I have such FOMO I know so I do have to come back next week so I'm going to spend the weekend no plans yet but I'm sure it'll be a grand old time and then I'll officially be back in the real world but I don't know um that's the remote podcast life you could do it from anywhere a farm I'm not complaining and because you have no clothes like we're getting skeletons every day
Starting point is 00:03:56 I have no clothing because I was literally supposed to leave my house on Thursday do shows Thursday Friday which requires no clothing just like my costume and then come home like Saturday or Sunday. And that was a week ago. So thank God I brought Spooky Scary and thank God Brian has a premium washing machine. I have been washing them almost every day, which pains me because the more I wash it, the more disintegrated these cheap Target pajamas come and I cannot find another pair for the life of me. So it pains me to throw them in the wash, but like I'm walking around the farm, there's horses like I got it. I got to wash them. Yeah, you do. But I understand fully. I also wanted to give an update because I said yesterday on the show that I don't think that there's anyone out there who's read every single Redheads book
Starting point is 00:04:36 and listen to every single episode. And I offended an entire community. No, I was really overwhelmed and like flooded with responses of people saying no I am the person I have done every single book every single episode and there were so many more people than I would have expected I would have thought like one two maybe three but like I got dms to my personal account I got dms to the redheads account so I'm just like so honored that 28 books 28 episodes you guys are riding with us I literally told you I just I couldn't believe it's a lot it's a lot of homework of course but that's what I've been trying to tell you like the redheads can't be stopped they can't be stopped and I actually gave you a book suggestion
Starting point is 00:05:20 um last night red white and royal blue It was our second ever Redheads book. And the crew didn't love it, but I think that you would. And I think you should read it next. And then you can listen to the episode. My next challenge, not challenge, but my next thing on my to-do list is to watch the Hating Game movie. Because people actually said it was really good, even though when I was reading the book,
Starting point is 00:05:44 I couldn't see Lucy Hale being played as Lucy which is just weird um I don't know who the man is but like I just wasn't getting Lucy vibes from Lucy got it interesting you've been watching a lot of TV yeah like no shade so I want to do a TV recap okay no literally like I and for me it's nice that I can watch a lot of TV and not feel like a piece of shit because it's literally my job. Like, I have a full TV recap planned for today about two of the craziest documentaries I watched last night. One of them is trending right now, the Tinder swindler.
Starting point is 00:06:15 Have you heard of it? I've heard of it and it looks good. So you'll share with us. I mean, it was painful because this man was like so evil and like Jewish and I was like, and he was making his like fake names so Jewish. And I'm like, we have our own problems. Like, stop. Like, seriously, it was painful.
Starting point is 00:06:30 It was painful, that part. But it was really good, basically. And I'll do a whole recap. But he ran like a $10 million Ponzi scheme through Tinder. Like, it was so crazy. Oh my gosh, okay. Yeah. And then the second thing I watched was Taken at Birth, which I haven't finished yet.
Starting point is 00:06:42 Like we were, our eyes were like closing, but we needed to finish. So we still have like an hour left. It's a six hour documentary. It is the most fucked up. It's like Three Identical Strangers, but on like a huge scale. Taken at Birth by who? Dr. Hicks. Where is he taking them?
Starting point is 00:07:02 So he ran a clinic in Georgia in the in the 60s and it all happened so long ago they're having so much hard like such a hard time finding information he ran a clinic in the 60s that was known for doing illegal abortions in like a safe way and he then turned that into running like an enormous adoption ring like selling babies out the back door for a thousand dollars oh wow that sounds over 200 babies well i'm not going to watch that at the current junction but it sounds interesting no no no no so i want to talk about both of those in the tv recap um and then we have a special guest at the end of the episode and we've got the fast five so it's going to be a gorgeous friday yeah a gorgeous friday and i feel like a
Starting point is 00:07:41 lot of the stories are just like tying up loose ends from the week and then we can embark on the weekend like feeling like we can put this week behind us we've had answers to some of the bigger questions that have been asked this week as you shall see and I think without further ado it is time for the fast five stories that you need to know before you wake up and take a bite out of your morning toast and before I tell you who today's episode is brought to you by the olympics started last night it was the opening ceremony i know it was gonna be a part of the stories if you could hold your horses oh sure yeah i'll shut up okay today's episode is brought to you by paint your life making new memories in a new world we have found the best way to hold on to those memories

Starting point is 00:11:21 because he's taking to Instagram to really ask for help here he posted a screenshot of north tiktok and said since this is my first divorce i need to know what i should do about my daughter being put on tiktok against my will i mean i don't think promoting her account is is helping gonna help no but this is definitely something that comes up in divorce proceedings like we see on you know uh housewives all the time like when two people get divorced and then it means that the kids can't film um this is a really interesting subject i agree it's drawing more attention to it right now and like we know how north loves her tiktok so that's kind of a bummer she's not not being forced on TikTok against her will. Literally, North is forcing Kim against her will to make a TikTok.
Starting point is 00:12:08 No, but she's on TikTok against Kanye's will. Like, Kanye doesn't approve. Not against her own will. I just think that's kind of hypocritical. Like, he doesn't want... Okay, I would understand if, like, he was always keeping North in the dark, not in the public. But, like, didn't he literally have her perform at his enormous Fashion Week show? Like, so just because it's not your idea like you're unhappy with it
Starting point is 00:12:28 he exploits north all the time not in a bad way like points are being made why tiktok why is tiktok different from all other platforms i don't know he'll have to explain himself for that because that is a good point because ultimately i kind of kind of, I feel this a little bit. I mean, I just think kids are on these platforms too young in general. I agree. I also think that going, taking to Instagram to share your qualms is not the place to do it. But I also agree with you that North has very much been on a bigger platform, under bigger spotlights, thanks to Kanye. And that was okay with him.
Starting point is 00:13:01 So it's a little hypocritical. Yeah. And also, like, things like this just it's a little hypocritical. Yeah, and also like things like this just give me a pit in my stomach because whenever Kanye is like publicly feuding on social media with his family in the past, it's just correlated to, you know, some of his mental health struggles.
Starting point is 00:13:15 And I hope that's not what's going on here, but it just does give me like reminiscent of, you know, his Twitter rants, which we know was like a really negative headspace for him. So I hope that they can work it out privately and that this doesn't mean Kanye is, you know, struggling again. Yeah, but he said this a few weeks ago also. I think when he was making those videos in the car on the way to the birthday party,
Starting point is 00:13:38 like he's been saying he doesn't like North on TikTok. No, and I believe that. But like handle it. You telling us about it is not going to help your cause. There's nothing we can do. And he needs to believe that, but like handle it. You telling us about it is not going to help your cause. No. There's nothing we can do. And he needs to take it up
Starting point is 00:13:48 with the boss herself, North. Chris. No, North is in charge of North's destiny. And if he is having an issue, he needs to talk to North. And I really believe this is one of North's
Starting point is 00:13:59 passion projects. And as someone who's like a firm believer in following your passions and, you know, following through on your passion projects, I do support's like a firm believer in following your passions and you know following through on your passion projects I do support like I do believe North she wakes up every day and can't she can't wait to make a TikTok like it makes her so happy I really think that so she's gonna have to explain that to him I think she's the only one who could really get
Starting point is 00:14:19 through to him and be like dad I love the talk the talk life is the best life it is the best life I agree with you North and I understand and if someone was trying to take away my TikTok privileges like they'd have to fight me for it so I'd fully support North in her passion projects and I fully support Kanye and his wanting limitations for TikTok of course so do I but like really handling it like makes me feel like he's not serious because he's posting it on Instagram agreed I don't like the way he's handling it but the message itself, I think, has merit. I think this is probably something that a lot of parents, like, this might be relatable
Starting point is 00:14:49 for a lot of parents of, you know, eight-year-old girls. Yeah. I mean, that's, like, something that when I think about in the future, like, having to, like, talk to my kids about social media. Like, I'm going to be, even though it's, like, so hypocritical because it's literally my whole job, like, my children will not have access to social media. Like, after I saw the social dilemma and, like, what it's doing to hypocritical because it's literally my whole job. Like my children will not have access to social media. Like after I saw the social dilemma and like what it's doing to the minds and mental health of our young girls, like I will literally, and I say that now, but then like
Starting point is 00:15:11 once they're going to start crying, I just throw them the phone. Like that's definitely something I think about a lot. Like how am I going to have that conversation? And like what are my parenting rules going to be as it pertains to social media? And is that immensely hypocritical of me? Here's the thing. It sounds hypocritical because like your whole life is social media and like you've made your career and you're living with social media but I think the more invested in social media you are like the more aware you are of all of the negative consequences as opposed to someone who just like it partakes just for fun and when they feel like it so I actually think that most people including like celebrities, influencers,
Starting point is 00:15:45 like they have seen the darkest sides of social media. So they are the most equipped, wary of letting their kids use it. That's actually a really good point. But like, I think about that a lot and I'm not even a mother. Yeah, no, it's scary out there. And it's also like every day, every week, every month, like it's degenerating further. Like we're not trending in an upward. It gets worse and worse. We're not trending in an upwards positive direction with the social media comments and behaviors. No, it's not a it's not linear progress. No, it's dissension. D-linear. D-linear. Thank you. Is that the right word? I don't know. I like literally got wordle in two tries today so I think I'm like an actual wordsmith. Oh my god. So I shared my
Starting point is 00:16:32 wordle yesterday. First of all I just want to let everyone know I did not guess shart. Okay. And I couldn't. Oh by the way it took everything inside me not to guess shart yesterday. Okay because I couldn't share like I posted my experience on wordle but I couldn't share about the sharp because I didn't want to give anything away now that it's a new day I need to let you know like I did not guess shart but I had s-h-a-r for four tries before I got it I had share I had shark I had sharp and then it was shard but I like that's not even a word like that was the most annoying word they could have chosen I know but I just didn't want to be associated with the shard so no but you are
Starting point is 00:17:10 it's too late I had to clear my name okay are you ready for our next story a follow-up to yesterday's story our little bubble of joy is over because Khloe Kardashian is denying dating Harry Jowsey I mean she definitely left it open to interpretation when she wrote in caps absolutely not true you know I'm not sure where we landed where we netted on all of this it's still possible yeah I think that they're probably it's like early days for sure but you know what's so funny is like Harry Jowsey's such like a fuck boy like living for the attention. He had posted a photo dump like of his week and buried in the middle was this photo of like his he's sitting in the driver's seat and then the passenger seat there's all these flowers and it's like a really nice car.
Starting point is 00:17:54 So the Dumont tip said flowers and Bentley and he literally put up a photo of what appears to be flowers and a Bentley. So he was obviously like pulled that from Pinterest and just like was trying to. Like he's living for it kind of reminds me of when like Jeffree Star Jeffree Star was like I'm going to Sunday service that was funny yeah that was really funny I mean this was fun while it lasted also I got some DMs that Harry Jowsey had been linked in the past to larsa yes okay and they actually spoke about it on what tv show was it it was love is blind oh oh wait no that was okay never mind um yeah no it was larsa okay on like the love is blind reunion do you remember damien who was engaged to giannina yeah he had paparazzi pictures i think with larsa and it became like a whole thing with francesca oh yeah yeah okay i'm getting my my
Starting point is 00:18:51 reality stars confused but yes he had been linked but i think they just like went to dinner and he like helped her to her car and the paparazzi were outside like i don't think it was a thing i don't know i could ship that too now that I'm a large to stand yeah I mean literally the one and only um so yes this is not true our heart is breaking but you know what what you said yesterday is entirely possible maybe this is their meet cute yeah maybe this is their meet cute just like a Hallmark movie and I so I would say on this like there, there's definitely a chance. You know? Yeah. No, I don't know if I would say that, but I think there's a chance that they just met yesterday.
Starting point is 00:19:30 Like, you see this crazy rumor about us? Yeah. We should get drinks and talk about it, you know? Yeah. Talk it through. For sure. Thinking it through. That is so funny.
Starting point is 00:19:41 Well, you know, it was fun while it lasted. And to whoever made it up and submitted it, like, that's just really fun and i i believe it's harmless gossip i mean i hope i did it didn't cause any harm to anyone i can't imagine how it would have but um it was just like a fun thing for us to all experience i was thinking about that yesterday like the person who actually pulled this rumor out of their ass and decided to like just fuck with everyone obviously didn't think it would become like as big of a thing like to the point where Khloe's responding. Nobody thought that
Starting point is 00:20:10 and she's probably like either hysterically laughing in her bedroom or like freaking out that people are going to find out that it was her and she started this. I think that she is working on her next rumor and it's not going to be as good and she's going to get herself into trouble.
Starting point is 00:20:22 So if you're listening to this I would say quit while you're ahead.'ve had success here don't keep going because usually it doesn't end up like this and people get big mad well she's a powerful woman so if she is listening to this like I wouldn't mind you starting a harmless rumor about me like here's some here's some suggestions okay Claudia Autry you know and Ben Soffer add third to their relationship John Mayer confirms something like that okay love it I could believe it I I don't that's all that's the only one that's the one I want out there okay maybe I'll do it I could believe it too yeah I don't give a fuck I'll do it that's like the most niche movie reference that like only our family like giggles at and I bet
Starting point is 00:21:04 okay does anyone in the world know what this is from I'll do it I don't give a fuck I'll do it It's like the most niche movie reference that like only our family like giggles at. And I bet. Okay. Does anyone in the world know what this is from? I'll do it. I don't give a fuck. I'll do it. No, because it's literally the most random moment in Borat from like 15 years ago when he gets in like this RV with a bunch of college kids. Like a bunch of crazy people.
Starting point is 00:21:20 Yeah. I'll do it. I don't give a fuck. I'll do it. Yeah. I'll do it. I don't give a fuck. I'll do it.
Starting point is 00:21:30 I feel like we say it a lot on the toes, but we've actually never, like, explained what it's from. It's from Borat, and it's, like, literally the most unremarkable scene. And I don't know why, like, as a family, we, like, we're just very impacted by that quote. And we use it all the time. It's so funny. And I think it's also a great moment to like have a Borat appreciation moment. If you're looking for a great movie to watch this weekend, add it to your list.
Starting point is 00:21:50 Yeah, if you're looking for a great Sacha Baron Cohen movie to watch, I would suggest, which one is Aladin? The Dictator. That's my favorite one. Yeah, that one is so good. And also, oh my God. So you know how we always say every time,
Starting point is 00:22:05 and this is like another family random joke that we always say like when we take a covid test and it's um negative we say positive negative we say we're covid aladdin and i was actually talking to someone and i said it i was like oh my god aladdin and they were like someone said that to me and i didn't know what it meant. And so someone else is going around saying COVID Aladin also. But you only say it when you're negative, even though it means positive and negative. You only say when you're negative because if you're obviously COVID positive, you're not making a joke about it. So for those who don't know what Aladin is, it's from the movie The Dictator. Basically, Sacha Baron Cohen plays a dictator where he just like changes all the rules in his country and he makes his last name aladdin mean like 50 different things so it means positive it means negative so they cut to
Starting point is 00:22:48 this guy at a clinic getting tested for stds he's like sir your test was aladdin yay no it's such a good movie such a good movie definitely watch it i hope everyone is covid aladdin this weekend and then also the theme song of the movie is it's the motherfucking d-o-double-g aladdin motherfucker so good maybe you should have a sasha baron coven cohen watch weekend sasha baron covid well actually everything he does is so funny but do you know that he has I actually never saw it um he has like a serious role it's a short series about um the spy yeah is that what it's called yeah I saw it I heard it was amazing oh you did amazing yeah it's amazing it's a lot
Starting point is 00:23:39 but you should watch it it's so good good. Yeah, I always think, like, I need to watch that. Yeah, you definitely should. Add it to the Sasha Baron Cohen marathon weekend. Okay. Not to be annoying, but you know I met Sasha Baron Cohen once. And how did that go? I've never actually in my life been so starstruck. Like, I just stood there.
Starting point is 00:24:00 I didn't even – honestly, met is a strong word because, like, we were in a circle of people and everyone was talking, and I was just, like, sitting there because i was like nervous that's how meets usually go it was really overwhelming like i had a whole speech like my jewish king but i didn't no no he doesn't want to hear it not at all are you ready for our next story is it the next story that's brought to you by hydro jug yes wow hydro jug is a perfect friday sponsor okay so hydro jug if you struggle with drinking water or you just want to really like as a resolution start drinking a good amount of water the hydro drug is a perfect place to

It's a perfect water bottle. It's Instagram worthy. It's super clean. It keeps your water clean and cold, but it also looks super cute as well. So the lid is the best part in my opinion. There are no other lids like this on other water bottles because it includes a flip cap, a dual function sip spout and a detachable straw. So I can sip from the straw if I'm wearing lipstick and remove the straw and pour it like normal. And you know I'm like a straw girly girl.
Starting point is 00:25:10 So the fact that the straw is there but it's also adjustable is just wonderful. The stainless steel one has insulation for hours. So it's the upgrade you need to drink more water. Their triple layer insulation will keep your water cold all day long. The jug features a silicone base to keep it where you want it and never stress about leaks or condensation again. The fixed handle makes it easy so you can still drink one handed and you won't be able to get enough of the dual function sip spout.

Starting point is 00:26:17 next story a little casting news dakota johnson is in talks to star in a Spider-Man spinoff movie called Madam Web. Don't look so excited, Claudia. The Fifty Shades of Grey star is reportedly in talks to appear in a Spider-Man spinoff entitled Madam Web for Sony Pictures. The character was first introduced in 1980s, the Amazing Spider-Man comic. She's described as a mutant who can predict the future of spidey superheroes and is usually drawn as an old woman who can predict the future of spidey superheroes and is usually drawn as an old woman who is blind and paralyzed she's essentially surrounded by web-like machinery to help her light live and stay safe okay i don't know what i'm feeling all over the place i think the concept of like a female spider-man is great love it yeah um especially
Starting point is 00:27:01 one that's like based in something that comes from the comics, not just like we're going to make a spider woman. Yeah. No, totally. That's like offensive to women. The thing with Dakota Johnson is like I like want to hate her because she's like really the face of nepotism. Like she got a lead role in an enormous franchise and I don't think she'd ever acted a day in her life. Like it's the most shocking nepotistic. Both of her parents are famous. But for some reason it doesn't bother me because she's like kind of a queen. She's like so beautiful and funny. And she was the queen who really unraveled the Ellen story. And so for that, I feel like we just have to support this project. Yeah, I feel like I don't have strong feelings one
Starting point is 00:27:40 way or the other, but I do feel like recently her um modern family relationship with Gwyneth and Chris and everything just like really reflects positively on her as a person I think it's like a really hard situation to come into and Gwyneth had just just posted like this week how much she loves Dakota yeah no by the way I completely agree with you but I think it says a lot about Gwyneth oh well of course but we already knew that she's like a modern queen. For me, like if Gwyneth gives her stamp of approval to anyone, especially someone who's dating the father of her children, like this person must be exceptional. That's exactly what I'm saying. And because we already know that Gwyneth is exceptional.
Starting point is 00:28:18 And it's like, you know, most people, I don't know if they are. Is it the person who's like not welcoming the new person into the family or is it the new person that's coming into the family like it depends most of the time it depends on the circumstances i'm sure we can do a deer toasters with both you know yeah and i'm sure it's also like a little bit of both like nobody's perfect so maybe like your idiosyncrasies just like totally clash with the other person's flaws as well yeah i. I mean, I don't know if I could see Dakota Johnson playing a superhero, but maybe she's a versatile actress and we don't know. How to Be Single was a great movie. Right. That's funny that you think of How to Be Single. I'm only
Starting point is 00:28:53 thinking of Fifty Shades, but I only saw the first one. I've never seen. That movie was plagued by the fact that the two of them had absolutely no chemistry. No chemistry. If anything, they had the opposite of chemistry. They had beef and And that really just pops off the screen. You know, the thing is, we talk about this all the time, like what it takes to make a great franchise. And Twilight being, you know, the perfect example of two people who were deeply in love. And that chemistry translated so much on screen. It can have the opposite effect.
Starting point is 00:29:20 I mean, Kissing Booth 2 and 3, Jacob Elordi and Joey King couldn't even stand each other. And the movies flopped for a reason. Yeah. And and also I don't want to spoil it for you because I don't know if you will be watching Victoria ever I will it's actually not a spoiler but I mean you know who Victoria marries no thank you for asking that's the thing about historical movies like okay we watch the Irishman spoiler alert if you've never seen it there's some character Jimmy Hoffa and Olivia blurts out oh I wonder who ends up murdering Jimmy Hoffa I'm like what Jimmy Hoffa dies and she's like he's a real character you didn't know that she was being like a an intellectual snob so I
Starting point is 00:29:55 think that like this whole thing about spoiler alerts and real move like real historical there's a gray area because not everyone knows who Victoria married and who the fuck Jimmy Hoffa was. Okay. So I won't give a spoiler on what happened and who Victoria chooses. But the person that she chooses and that plays out in the show, the entire time they're filming the show, like the two of them are very much dating in real life, Jenna Coleman and the actor. Love that. And like you can feel it come off the screen. Like you really, really can.
Starting point is 00:30:24 And so then they broke up recently, which is just, like, so sad. And Victoria season four, there's been, like, whispers, and it's been delayed and everything. But in the time that, you know, they haven't gotten their shit together, like, Jenna Coleman was spotted leaving his townhouse. Oh. And so maybe, maybe everything will be okay for season four if we didn't get a season four. Which, you know, because I like it and I found it it won't happen it's a goner finished um also most recently broke the box office spider-man tom holland and zendaya being a couple couldn't hurt i mean i didn't see it but i imagine the chemistry was palpable palpable agreed so so if you want a
Starting point is 00:31:02 successful franchise fall in love with your crow star yeah but you can't like fake that that's the thing hollywood can fake a lot of stuff no i think that's the je ne sais quoi that's it factor sauce yeah and they they can do all their cgi they can like make shit happen but they can't fake love and i think that's the moral of the story. And you know what's so great like about Twilight even though you know Robert and Kristen are long over. She was not recently but a couple years after the breakup she did a really in-depth Howard Stern interview and there was a lot of speculation because it was like so perfect. You know this huge franchise two people fall in love. She was like no no no like it was full and now she's recently come out as gay. So I think a
Starting point is 00:31:44 lot of people question the relationship and she said in recently come out as gay so I think a lot of people question the relationship and she said in no way was any of it for press none of it was fake like we were so in love it's a great interview she does with Howard Stern and just to hear that as like a twilight stand like it brought tears to my eyes like I got misty eyed that's so beautiful gorgeous I think that's a perfect segue to our next story, which is about another iconic couple. And David Beckham is kind of like spilling the tea on his wife and saying that she's eaten the same thing for the last 25 years. And of course, like I was like, click. Oh, I believe it. What is she eating? Okay. While appearing on the latest episode of River Cafe Table 4 podcast,
Starting point is 00:32:21 David Beckham revealed the meal his wife has eaten since they met in the late 1990s. He said, I get quite emotional about food and wine when I'm eating something great. I want everyone to try it. Unfortunately, I'm married to someone that has eaten the same thing for the last 25 years. Since I met Victoria, she only eats grilled fish and steamed vegetables. She will very rarely deviate away from that. He said the only time she probably ever shared something that's been on my plate was actually when she was pregnant with our daughter, Harper. And it was the most amazing thing. I feel like this is you and Ben. I was just like, not to make everything about me, but like reading this and I said, Ben easily could
Starting point is 00:32:59 have written this only because I know it's actually really hard for Ben. He's such a foodie. And when he goes out, he'll order three things, not because he wants to eat three things, but he wants to try. And if he had a partner who could, you know, split an appetizer or two, like it would change his life, but he doesn't have that. So we literally pay for a meal for like four people because I get the same thing every time I go to a restaurant and I look at the menu, I find either the salmon or the chicken. Like's I will never ever deviate from that it's just who I am like I'm a creature of habit Ben has never ordered the same thing twice even if we go to the same restaurant two nights in a row he'll get different things yeah it really is such a shame because they do say opposites attract and I'm
Starting point is 00:33:37 sure on some level like you know subconsciously that's what makes you guys work is that you're so different but what about the convenience of like he could order three things that he wants to try and then you could also order things like three things you want to try and then we tried six things where does that account attract our food and beverage bills would be half the price if we could share like we just i don't even know the only thing we really share is like a of french fries. And I don't even like to share those. Like, they're mine. We get two. Yeah, and, like, he, like, loves going to new restaurants and trying, like, you know.
Starting point is 00:34:12 Hate. So, like, who? Hate. And now that I think about it, like, he's, oh, you're never going. When he's going omakase, like, you're never there. No, like, if me and Ben go out to dinner, I go to same four restaurants like i love sierra bond i like kaima i like um like gemma seraphina there's like five restaurants i'll go to and they're not even like the best restaurants in the city they just have shit there that i like and i get the same thing every time we couldn't be more different and i
Starting point is 00:34:40 know it actually like it plagues ben that's so unfortunate logistically but that's why he has so many friends that want to share appetizers with him he has so many friends and now like knowing victoria and david beckham who have really stood every test in hollywood stood the test of time 25 years happily married there might be something to this and maybe it's just like the fact that you have your own things like maybe if if you guys were too similar, you know, then you would fight over what you what you would want to order and try. You would also like fight over like what was the best thing. Now, like you each have your own thing.
Starting point is 00:35:12 Right. He can tell you what the best thing on the menu was and you just believe him. Well, we order in a lot, especially, you know, since the pandemic started, like even more. And if it were up to me, I would order the same thing every night. I get chicken teriyaki from Sushi Seki. like it is my absolute I could eat it till I die and every time I come home Ben's like what do you want to order I'm like Seki and it like pains him because he's eating the same thing multiple times a week and I actually got a notification from Uber Eats that I'm in like the top 0.01% of people who order from Sushi Seki and do you know how many times I've ordered from Sushi Seki in the last year and this was like a couple weeks ago how many a hundred I've been
Starting point is 00:35:51 getting those isn't that crazy that's crazy I got I get a lot of those badges these days of like I'm in the top five percent of customers every restaurant I order from they're like you're in the top five percent of customers I'm like what's everyone else doing then? Where are you going? 100%. They're leaving their house. Some places I do order from a lot, but sometimes I'm just like, you know, once every few weeks. And yeah, I guess they are leaving their house, but nothing is more embarrassing
Starting point is 00:36:15 than getting those badges. I don't know if Uber Eats and Postmates like put them there as a point of pride, but it's humiliating. Humiliating to know that I'm in the top one percent of people who order bagels from this bagel place when I saw three digits of the amount of times that I've ordered from sushi I wanted to literally die and it definitely you know what it's not good business it's not good business because every time I thought about ordering food I was like you know
Starting point is 00:36:40 what I'll just go pick something up because I couldn't stand the shame of my uber eats app so they should really stop yeah agreed on that note are you ready for our fifth and final story I'm not gonna sing yeah I'm fine please sing everyone wants you to sing it's it's Friday they don't want you to sing Jackie do you know what I did yesterday what did you do I read some recent podcast reviews okay oh I read some to the other day there was one that really bothered me there was one that bothered me too but I can't remember mine was yours did they recently start doubling up how many ads they do it's literally the whole show I'm like okay so we do a 60 minute episode we do three maybe four ads one minute each so four minutes out of 60 is the whole show wench and this is a business bitch like we have shit to do wench wait i'm dying
Starting point is 00:37:30 such a wenchy comment you guys i'm going to give you a little like uh trick of the trade for podcasts pretty much for every 15 minutes is one ad so if we're doing an hour show that's four ads and so we're not doing any more or less ads than we're supposed to be doing I don't really want okay I just pulled up um oh my god I'm not even gonna look quickly I can't remember what it was I hurt my feelings I can't remember what it was that hurt my feelings but um and there were a lot of negative ones but sometimes they don't hurt I'm like okay that's your opinion cool yeah there was just like something that um I think I know what it was because I saw it too
Starting point is 00:38:05 was it like really complimentary to me and like really nasty to you what was the nastiness to me it was just like Claudia is a born entertainer which was so nice oh no I haven't seen this oh and then it was like and Jackie's just like monotone and she ends every sentence with a g I don't even know what that meant with a g okay now i'll have to look out for that no that wasn't that wasn't even it well what actually there was like two that actually really bothered me because i guess some people didn't like what we had to say about jenny when and they were like okay well if this was about the jewish community you know they only care about things that relate to them and then it's like literally the next week we had a whole segment on whoopi goldberg's anti-semitism
Starting point is 00:38:44 and i think we literally gave the same amount. We literally said the same thing to Jenny that we said about. It's the same principle. And because we are principled people. That's what's nice about having principles. You can just apply them to everything and you'll be consistent. I saw those comments on the Jenny Wen episode and I was just like, is this your first time listening?
Starting point is 00:39:02 Because when have we ever gone harder against someone if anything I feel like we're more forgiving when someone insults the Jewish community because we just like don't want to believe that like people have hate that amount of hate in their hearts you know and I really feel like I'm extremely inconsistent in most facets of my life like I'm extremely hypocritical um but I actually feel like when we talk about cancel culture I feel like I'm very equal when it's like a community that I'm extremely hypocritical. But I actually feel like when we talk about cancel culture, I feel like I'm very equal when it's like a community that I'm a part of or a community that I'm not a part of. That's like something I actually like to pride myself on. So I didn't appreciate that.
Starting point is 00:39:33 And I'm never reading podcast reviews again. Yeah. Well, I just like scroll down to some and now I'll try and find the one that just don't do it. No, Jackie, you're pregnant and you need to protect your aura and your energy. And seriously, I'll kill you if you do it okay okay great but there's like whatever sometimes there's something in there I'm like you know what that's actually some pretty good feedback of course I'll incorporate that it's important to know like sometimes people actually
Starting point is 00:39:57 do give critical feedback like in a helpful nice way and they don't give you one star they're like I love this show four stars but could you just do this thank you yeah agreed agreed okay are you ready for our fifth and final story now which you're not going to sing because you've been because I've been silenced you've been silenced well it's about the winter olympics which kicked off last night opening ceremonies of the 2022 winter olympics today is our first day of activities. They are taking place in Beijing, which is 13 hours ahead of the East Coast. So it's like very, you know, there's the live,
Starting point is 00:40:32 but then there's also going to be primetime and it's going to be confusing because did the opening ceremonies aired last night? I don't know. Brian didn't want to watch it. We were like stuck in this documentary that I'm going to talk about in five minutes. I did not see one thing.
Starting point is 00:40:45 Where's the support? About anyone watching the opening. Where's the opening? I have no idea. Yeah, no. I thought the same thing. There's like very little energy being put towards. I think it's because it's like controversial. Well, here.
Starting point is 00:40:56 No, here. Yes, it is controversial. But also the opening ceremony will air in primetime tonight. Oh, okay. Good. So you didn't miss anything. It already happened. Okay.
Starting point is 00:41:05 Yeah. And I was thinking, why would it premiere on a Thursday? That's just like not good television. will air in primetime tonight. Oh, okay, good. So you didn't miss anything. Okay, yeah. And I was thinking, why would it premiere on a Thursday? That's just like not good television. That's not the show business. If you're looking for premium coverage of the Olympics, I highly suggest following Leslie Jones on all social media platforms. She watches every single minute of it and she records herself and her reactions.
Starting point is 00:41:21 And seriously, the fact that NBC hasn't hired her like in official capacity as an Olympic correspondent is devastating because she's so funny. It's like my favorite thing to watch. And as far as I know, she's literally the only person talking about it. Yeah, but there hasn't been much to talk about yet. But today we will have activities starting at 12 noon Eastern time. But then the opening ceremony will air tonight. So it's just it's confusing all over the place very much so okay well that's very exciting there's also a historic um moment happening for israel the first modern orthodox woman is an olympian and she is competing so i just you want to see um that's as
Starting point is 00:41:58 far as i know okay i only read the headline we'll have to watch the opening ceremony to find out yeah very exciting so i I love the Olympics. I will be tuning in. But I do agree. There's like a lack of energy, a lack of momentum, lack of spirit for the Winter Olympics. And I just think the Winter Olympians deserve more. It's also Sean White's last Olympics.
Starting point is 00:42:16 Like there's a lot. It's a historic season. Oh, wow. He's, oh, I didn't realize that he was. Retiring. Competing. I thought he was going to be like broadcasting. No, I think, you know, let me just double check my facts because, you know, I like to
Starting point is 00:42:29 make things up. No, you sound right. He's like still does his thing. He's so cute. You know, he's dating Nina Dobrev. Of course I know. Ship so hard. Sean White on 22 Winter Olympics.
Starting point is 00:42:39 It's tough to say goodbye. So yeah, I think this is his last one. Very cool. And him and Nina Dobbe are actually extremely cute. Extremely. I'm happy for them. Me too. Okay, well, those are the past five stories.
Starting point is 00:42:51 I feel as though you needed to know them. And now Claudia is going to share everything that she's been watching. Before you do, let me just say I started season five of Poldark. I finished with my break. I know how you love when I talk about Poldark, Claudia. You're just like, what did Ross do? What did demelza say can i tell you something yeah i have literally no idea what poldark is like you keep talking about it i'm like it took me a while to figure out it was a tv show like i'm seriously like i'm so confused every time you talk about it okay it is a tv show it's a
Starting point is 00:43:20 period piece it is set now where it's 1800 in London um they do live in Cornwall most of the time and it's just they don't live in Elyria they know but of course that's what I was thinking it's just a historical fiction television show what channel on Amazon Prime there's five seasons and if you're into that sort of thing like it is a really good show it has really good moments but it's also incredibly frustrating and so I watched four seasons and I needed a break from it from Ross Poldark and his antics. I just came back for season five because I just want to close the book on it. Season five is somehow even more frustrating than all of the other seasons. So I just need to plow through and get to the end because they're really just
Starting point is 00:44:01 like driving the show into the ground, no offense. The tea, the shade. Yeah, but I would still like recommend it if you're into that sort of thing. But this is what happens with all television shows, you know. There's only so much you can do. And it's like you don't want to cause too much strife and controversy within the show because then like your faves might get broken up. And like I don't want to see that for Ross and Demelza. I do ships.
Starting point is 00:44:24 So it is what it is, but it's also very frustrating. So I will finish that this weekend. I'm actually really excited to start Real Houses of Miami now that I am like a Larsa Stan. I'm going to make an Instagram fan account. Stop. Larsa Stan for life.

Starting point is 00:45:56 that I watched, the first one, which was like a little bit lighter, was the Tinder swindler. And I told you it's this man who literally used Tinder in Europe to do a Ponzi scheme of over $10 million. He told everyone he was like the son of this really rich Israeli guy. So he took his name. But the guy had no sons. So like literally these girls who he was meeting them on Tinder took them on a private jet their first date. And it turned out like with every girl he was like swindling, he was using money from a previous girl. So he would get in relationships with them, buy them everything they want. And then the money runs out and he's like, oh my God,
Starting point is 00:46:31 all my diamond, he's in the diamond business. All my diamond enemies are onto me. They're trying to kill me. He sends pictures of like fake blood. He's like, oh my God, I don't, I can't, they're tracing my credit cards. Can you just like lend me your credit card? And he would run up these crazy charges, make the women take out loans. Most of them are now in debt for $250,000 each. It was a crazy story. And the women really got the story to be told and got him arrested. They contacted the biggest paper in Norway. Two of the women sat down. And then once the article came out, all these women all over Europe, like London, Oslo, Norway, started to come forward. And they, the woman who actually ended up facilitating his arrest was this queen, like queen. Okay. But she was so pissed before
Starting point is 00:47:12 she turned him in. She was like, literally I'm $140,000 in debt. And if he gets turned in, like I'm fucked. So he was telling her like, I need money. I need money. I need money. She's like, okay, I have a great idea. Let me sell all your designer clothes for you. I work in luxury fashion. I will sell all your designer clothes. I'll come to, I think he was in Amsterdam. He's like, I'll come pick it up and then I'll send you the money. So he's so desperate. He's like, okay, amazing. She goes, she takes three enormous suitcases of all of his designer clothes that he's acquired over the years and starts listing them on eBay. And she never told us how much she ended up making. She said she didn't make back the full amount, but like it was
Starting point is 00:47:44 enough to make a dent and really screw him over because after that he was spending $12 a night to live in a hostel and she found out what name he was gonna use for his next life. He kept changing his name and she reported him to the police
Starting point is 00:47:55 and he got arrested. He literally did 15 months in prison. He got sentenced to 15. Sorry, he only stayed for five. He's out and about. He's free now living his best life. These women are still in debt and when they take out these loans they have crazy interest rates so they keep making payments but they're fucked like they're whatever so the whole thing was really interesting because his instagram he was posing as simon levive the son of this
Starting point is 00:48:21 heiress of the lld diamonds ll Diamonds is a real company that has absolutely nothing to do with this. And they had to post a statement on their Instagram being like, we're like a small business. Like we have nothing to do with this man. Leave us alone. But I went to Simon's Instagram last night and he had 159,000 followers and he was on private. I was like, fuck, I wanted to stalk. Then when we finished the documentary, I checked again, he had 175,000 and he was on public. And I saw that we had a mutual friend and I was like, He had 175,000 and he was on public. And I saw that we had a mutual friend.
Starting point is 00:48:46 And I was like, oh my God, I'm freaking out. So I texted my friend and I was like, it's so funny. I'm like, how do you know Simon Levive? He goes, ha ha, I don't. I'm like, but why do you guys, like, why do you follow him? I just watched a documentary and I'm obsessed. And I just want to say, like, the fact this person is like a man about town. He runs in fabulous circles. Like, he wouldn't know.
Starting point is 00:49:07 It wasn't shocking at all. Yeah. So I'm like, why do you follow him? I just watched a documentary and I'm obsessed. He goes, because I just watched a documentary also. Oh, my God. And I immediately followed him. I thought, I literally thought we had a mutual friend.
Starting point is 00:49:19 He was like, no, no, no. I just watched a documentary and I thought it was so crazy. I thought you were going to say that you found someone that you're friends with who thought this guy is who he says he is and was going to be his next victim. I thought I was about to blow my friend's mind being like, Simon Levive is not who you think he is. His name is Simon Hayut. But it wasn't.
Starting point is 00:49:38 That is so funny. And then the next thing I watched is this three-part TLC documentary called Taken at Birth about the Dr. Hicks babies, which I had never heard of. But in 1997, this article came out and blew this whole thing wide open. Basically, there was a man in Georgia who was running like a clinic, but it was well-known underground for being like a safe place to get an illegal abortion. Because, you know, back in the day, you couldn't get an abortion. If you did, it was really dangerous. And he was like known for like taking care of all these women. And it turns out that he was running this incredibly fucked up adoption ring where he was either women came to him to give birth and he would tell them that their babies died
Starting point is 00:50:15 and then be selling the baby out the back door for a thousand dollars to like random women across the country who were infertile. Or women would come for an abortion and he was like I guess some like pro-life activists who would be like no listen keep the baby and I will take care of it for you so he would keep these women pregnant until like 30 weeks and have them like induced so these babies would be like tiny this woman said I came to pick up my daughter and I could fit her in both my hands like and they like it was just so it was so fucked up and so now all these hicks babies who have like recently found each other are trying to find their lineage they're trying to find their
Starting point is 00:50:52 birth parents there's no documentation because all of their birth certificates are fraudulent like and because it has their it has their adopted parents names on their birth certificate so thanks to 23andme and like ancestry like some people are able to find like close relatives but this is also the 50s so most of these people's parents have passed away without ever finding out that they had a child they literally thought this woman thought she gave birth to two stillborn twins and we found one of them steven like it's so fucked up oh my god but wait so the people who gave birth, and then he said that the babies died, like, they wanted to keep their babies? Yes, they just came to give birth.
Starting point is 00:51:30 Oh, my God. It's so horrible. And, like, the town is really weird because, like, there's a lot of old people who live in the town who were around during that time. And it was, like, a well-known thing that he was doing. And, like, they all kept his secret. And he was, like, this honorable man who everyone loved. But like people knew about it. Like it's not like this is coming as a shock.
Starting point is 00:51:49 The town is like trying to cover it up. And it's like really fucked up. There's just like a lot of creepy things happening. But where I left off last night is that there's a chance. They exhumed the body of Dr. Hicks' son to get DNA. Because he died about 40 years ago. Dr. Hicks himself died like a million years ago. So they exhumed his son to get DNA because he died about 40 years ago. Dr. Hicks himself died like a million years ago. So they exhumed his body to get DNA from the son because they think a lot
Starting point is 00:52:10 of these babies are related to Dr. Hicks. Like he was fucking around on the side. Him and his son were both fucking around on the side. And we're literally like taking these babies from the women that they got pregnant and giving them to families who were struggling with fertility. So last night they exhumed the body. We have to get the dna i don't know what's going to come of it but it's the most do you think that they were intentionally getting women pregnant so that they had babies to sell i don't know it's the thing is is like this happened so long ago there's like no information they're literally like grasping at straws. Oh my God, that is so fucking spooky. It makes my stomach hurt.
Starting point is 00:52:49 It's Pittsville. Don't watch it. Like it's really fucked up. No, no, no. I don't think I'm in a position to watch it. But if you're not pregnant, if you're not pregnant, I highly recommend. TLC did a stand-up job. Wow, that's insane.
Starting point is 00:53:01 Insane. So that's my TV recap. Sorry, it's a little dark. But I was in a documentary documentary mood yesterday you can't help these things honestly a documentary mood is a pretty good mood i need to i need to i need to see where my tv path is going to take me next i really never know check out the tinder swindler it was kind of crazy yeah i might i like that that sounds like american greed and they all like he Was communicating with all

Like where have you been so far? What stops do you have left? What are you looking forward to?
Starting point is 00:54:47 I mean, we've been all over. It's been a pretty wild ride. All the shows have been probably some of the best shows we've done this year, which we're super thankful for, just coming out of the pandemic and actually being able to tour again. So we're super, super excited for the rest of the shows that's so fun what has it been like working with Bacardi and how are you guys going to close out this tour it's been awesome working with Bacardi you know they really believe in what we're doing not just um on the show side
Starting point is 00:55:18 but also on the music side we've collaborated on some really awesome things we even actually made our own drink together for the tour. So it's really a top-down experience from the second that you step into one of these parties where it feels like it's a true collaboration between Loud Luxury and Bacardi. So we know the tour is in full swing. Can you tell us your favorite stop along the Bacardi Party Tour and why? Well, I mean, all of them have been amazing. The shows have been literally 10 out of 10 uh one of them that was really special was uh in pennsylvania uh we got to be there for halloween uh we got to spend some time there and that's always a great place to just kind of hang out
Starting point is 00:55:57 uh but i mean indiana texas uh we've done uh georgiaia minnesota all of them have been great seeing this great nation i personally i personally loved college station because we got the most texas experience of all time there we ate fried gator we went to this country bar after it was like the most texas experience you could possibly get and that was really cool to us because normally we're just in Dallas and more like the metropolitan cities wow that's such a fun way to see like all of our different cities in our great nation like through the lens of the colleges through partying yeah yes this tour sounds like honestly a dream like the most fun a person could possibly have the Bacardi brand ethos is do what moves you how do you guys feel like loud luxury embodies this does what moves
Starting point is 00:56:52 you guys I mean the only thing we're thinking about when we're in the studio is just are people gonna dance to this is this gonna get people going when we're playing songs for people we're literally just watching and just seeing how their body reacts like that is literally the fundamental thing of what you do in dance music so i think picardy and us have that in common now not to get too personal but what moves you both of you i mean we we honestly really love this tour because it kind of brings us back to our college days um i mean that's that's the big big thing for us is going back to all these great colleges and really just like getting to play all of our new music. Cause all the music that we made was during the pandemic. So we didn't really have a time to really play it out for anybody other
Starting point is 00:57:38 than like on live streams or like anything like that. So for us, it's really been special being able to play all the new music out for people and i know this is like asking your favorite child but what is your favorite bacardi cocktail well the luxe lemonade because that's the one that we did together yeah the luxe lemonade for sure but that's how it sounds delicious yeah it's it's actually really simple to make how do you make it walk us through it yeah the luxe lemonade is actually super simple to make. How do you make it? Walk us through it. Yeah, the Luxe Lemonade is actually super simple to make. Yeah. All right. So what you need is you need Bacardi Limon, which is actually amazing. And I wasn't really a rum drinker until this. So I love Bacardi Limon. And then you just mix it with some lemonade. I think it's one and one and a half ounces of
Starting point is 00:58:19 Bacardi Limon with three ounces of lemonade. And you put in a tall glass, tons of ice, give it a quick stir and then you're set and we've been drinking that the whole tour and loving it that sounds so good i'm about to um give birth but once i do that sounds definitely can't be drinking at that refreshing way celebrate we'll make you a nice lemonade you know i'm getting just i'm getting prepared for you know what I can look forward to. And that sounds like something I should add to my list of things. People get excited, like, what's going to be my first drink?
Starting point is 00:58:55 Oh, yeah. No, I mean. People get excited, like, what's going to be my first drink after birth? Yeah. A lot of people have asked me, like, what's going to be the first thing I'm going to eat that I couldn't eat before? Like, activity that I couldn't do before but for first drink like this is definitely up there of something that um i've got to try that just honestly sounds really refreshing and a great foray back into the world of alcohol for sure we'd love a good well if you make it to
Starting point is 00:59:20 the bacardi party we'll have one all together. Amazing. Hopefully we can do it at one of the shows. Claudia would love that. She's just dying to relive her college days because she went to school in a city. She did not have the real experience. I think Claudia needs to become a groupie for the Bacardi party. Hey, you're welcome on stage anytime. Groupie? Jackie, I'm married.
Starting point is 00:59:45 You're welcome on stage anytime. She just means Jackie, I'm married. You're welcome on stage anytime. She just means you're going to come to some shows with us. You know, I did just release a song that is, it's critically acclaimed. Like, it's up for a Peabody, it's up for a Nobel Peace Prize, and maybe you guys just listen to it, and you let me know
Starting point is 01:00:00 what you think. It's on Spotify. It's called 100% by Claudia Asher. You check it out. You let me know. We will. 100%. Pun intended. to it and you let me know what you think it's on spotify it's called 100 by claudia asha you check it out you let me know we will 100 pun intended claude you gotta get yourself on this tour i think certified i think it'll catch you up for like years worth of college partying that you missed i think it's also what my music career really needs yeah the FOMO is real what do you guys usually do to uh to get ready to celebrate game day oh it's a good question I mean for us we like to wake up the good thing about game days that's early so you get to wake up and have a really nice breakfast I'm personally a sucker for the Chick-fil-a breakfast. That was one of my favorite parts of going to Athens,
Starting point is 01:00:48 Georgia, when we played there, is that it's just Chick-fil-A at every street corner. That was the only thing that we could get a reservation at. I could be blown up on a nice breakfast. You gotta make reservations. Yeah, because it was right before game day. That's the one tip. You just gotta make a reservation because
Starting point is 01:01:03 literally we tried to eat pretty much at every single bar that was or like food spot or whatever it was just on the strip everywhere was a minimum hour wait and the only thing that we didn't have to wait in a crazy crazy line for was chick-fil-a there's still a line but we were we got to eat there that sounds like a yeah yeah it's like a blessing in disguise yeah i've never been to a number one ranked football school the atmosphere is totally different especially before every game day because there's just so much riding on that game so the city it feels like it's like you know a stick of dynamite that's about to just explode like the
Starting point is 01:01:44 energy is contagious and we felt that playing the show too in georgia as well is that everyone is just so hyped has so much energy it was really special and beyond the bacardi party tour you guys also just released your ep holiday hills yeah like i was saying earlier um we made that pretty much over the entirety of the pandemic. I mean, we had nothing but time. So it was a big adjustment just kind of going from playing shows all the time and traveling and, you know, doing that whole thing to basically having all the time in the world on our hands.
Starting point is 01:02:19 And so we were able to really just like kind of sit down and make some music and work on some, some new stuff for everyone. So that was a blessing in disguise also because, I mean, that's one thing about being on the road and touring so much is it's actually really hard to really sit down and focus on making music. Yeah, wow. What's your guys' each personal favorite loud luxury song? It's like asking to pick between your favorite child. I know.
Starting point is 01:02:50 A DeAndre's Choice, that's what we call it here at the Morning Toast. Yes. Well, personally, my favorite type of music is music I create myself, so I feel like that's an unfair question, to be honest. But you guys gotta remix it. Okay, so you get it. Then why would you ask us that? Yeah, you know that's true that's actually fair touche andrew touche watching you okay so there's a lot going on with you guys but what can your fans really expect to see and hear from you you next well
Starting point is 01:03:19 we got two more stops on the bacardi party tour we're keeping that train running even starting with this weekend we're playing playing at Columbia, Missouri. And that's going to be a really awesome show because last time we came there was a Halloween show on our bus tour. Yeah. It was a Halloween show on our bus tour and it was honestly one of our favorite shows
