Good morning, Millennials! Welcome back to the Morning Toast and happy Wednesday.
It is hump day, which is extremely appropriate given the fact that it's also a
Bryson's, Bryson's, Bryson's, Bryson's, Bryson's, Bryson's, Bryson's, Bryson's day.
Bryce is here. Strice is here. Jackie's here. Jackson and Claude are here. Claude is here.
There's a lot going on.
Double the strice, double the fun.
Double the toast.
We have an amazing episode today and I don't just say that lightly, you know? You don't. You don't. Not only
is it a- You sound like me. No, I know, but I never say it. So I think that when I say it,
it has gravitas. And when I say it, it's meaningless. Just because, you know, it's like
the boy who cried amazing episode. But let's be real. Every episode is amazing. Took the words right out
of my mouth. It's true but I can guarantee or your money back that today's episode. You're gonna like
what you hear. You're gonna like what you hear. I guarantee it. Here's why. Okay. It's hump day which always
just gives an amazing energy. Puts a little oomph. A little oomph in our day. Two. We had a very long
weekend so we are refreshed. We are excited.
And we have a lot to say to each other.
Because not only were there not two episodes Monday and Tuesday,
but they happened to be like earth shattering, breaking news, life changing days.
Which leads me to point number three.
Great stories.
Five out of five are 10 out of 10.
And dear toasters, which is always a good time, helping the youth.
Yes. So between those four bullet points that we have just laid out to you,
I think we have made the case for why this will be a fantastic episode.
And the verdict is Amazing Show.
Amazing Shaw, guilty.
Ooh, Fanny, brass and strass.
You guys, we have so much to talk about.
Before we get into the stories, let's talk about the real stories here me and you how are we talking about the stars let's talk about the
true stars and it's been so long we celebrated your birthday oh my god and you no longer had
the birthday blues you had a birthday blowout and you need to tell everyone what we did and how you
feel so I spoke like for the week leading up to my birthday that I hate my birthday I'm not doing
anything for my birthday which you do every single year and then we're all obligated
to you know put on a tight dress and go to the club. Please you wore a collared shirt. No that's
why this year was different from all other years. It's true. So you know the day before my birthday
or the day before the Saturday night my birthday was Sunday. So I was like on Friday night I'm like
I have to do something. And there actually were like a decent amount of my friends in, in the city, not everyone, but a good amount. And I want it to be not like other
girls because I'm not. Um, and instead of throwing like a party, like whatever, I decided to do
something a little different, you know, channel my inner Seneca Lake days at Camp Seneca Lake.
They would always spring on us for evening activity a mystery bus ride I mean usually went to like Dougie's for food or it was pretty much always Dougie's which was good by the way not
complaining not complaining but every time we were like I wonder where we're going you're going to
Dougie's bitch shut up um and if you haven't eaten Dougie's like you haven't lived it's like kosher
like fast food it's so good yeah whatever so I was like let me do a mystery bus ride because
honestly I love a party bus and sometimes the party bus is more fun than the location of the
party it's not about the destination it's about the journey right so I'm like all right I'm gonna
get a party bus everyone who's in town just come and then I'll like find a location for everyone
um and so I went through a lot of different ideas I thought about maybe doing an escape room
which because I've never done one but escape rooms or at least the ones I found in the city
like don't have like a bar so like after you do the escape room like you just go home like it made
no sense with all your new knowledge with all your escapism so I was like okay not that I was trying
to think of like fun different maybe top golf once again here we are advocating for a top golf in the
city the closest one is an hour and a half away in Edison New Jersey which I don't want to make
people be on a bus for an hour and a half a mystery bus ride it's fun but not that that fun. No, and like you go extra slow on a bus. So Google Maps is like,
yeah, if you're in a sedan, but they're not giving me the party bus ETA. It was probably more like
two hours. You have to drive slower. You can't go on certain roads, you know? Yeah, that was like
when we took a big party bus to Foxwoods and on the way home, we took a path that wouldn't allow
our truck and we were driving around Connecticut trying to find our way out. We took the path of
most resistance. We really did. So I was like, all right, I want to keep it in the city.
I don't want to inconvenience anyone.
And I was just doing my research.
And this is not even sponsored.
I actually paid a lot of money, a little too much.
That was my only complaint about the venue.
Extremely expensive.
To go to Bolero in Chelsea Piers, which is Bulmore rebranded.
It is obviously a bowling alley, but it's like a full bar, full arcade laser tag.
And I was just like, let's embrace.
Because, you know, as I was saying on the toast last week,
we're all a child at heart, you yes and I think we're saying that and I think that was like the inspiration for my party so I didn't tell anyone we were going we all met
at my house got on the bus it was like alcohol spritz music and everyone was trying to guess
it's funny how literally everyone thought I was taking them to Atlantic City which is a good idea
but like do you think I would really make you sit on this bus for four hours like that's the kind of
friend you think I am and it's like taking your friends on like a mystery trip to a whole
other state and city like that it's like do you think you're Kim Kardashian like thank you by the
way we're just like going to Chelsea Piers thank you like I'm a podcaster okay like please times
are tough um and like do they think they were coming back I would have told them to pack out
an overnight bag like they I think they might've thought like you had clothes for them there.
No,
Jackie,
literally every single person thought we were like,
and fully confirmed.
They weren't even like,
we already know.
I'm like,
you know,
that's so funny.
And I'm like,
okay,
if we were going to Atlantic city,
it would have made us leave at like six o'clock,
not 10 PM.
Like it was,
people are so dumb.
Okay.
So then Jackie actually had the great idea.
Cause I wanted to make,
you know,
the mystery bus fight of more of an adventure.
And I wanted people to start guessing where we were going. So you had the great idea because I wanted to make you know the mystery bus fight more of an adventure and I wanted people to start guessing where we were going so you had the great
idea to play a song um like different songs to like give clues right so the first song I played
was Bowling for Soup 1985 which just got the fucking crowd lit the fuck up it slapped every
single person on the bus who everyone's so different different ages everyone knew every
single lyric I had no idea I knew every single lyric, but I did.
Me neither.
And then when I finished it, everyone was like, we're going bowling.
I'm like, kind of.
So then I played like the number one song by Major Lazer,
which I don't even know what.
Lean On.
Yeah, I don't know.
How does it go?
We all need someone to lean on.
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do.
So then everyone was loving that song.
And then they were like, major Lazer.
I'm like, yes.
Someone said Lazer Tag.
I'm like, yes.
Then right before we pulled up, I just typed in Arcade Fire and played the top song and
I didn't know it, but Kristen's husband Pete was like, we're going to an arcade.
And I was like, yes, Pete.
We've got bowling.
We've got arcade.
We've got Lazer Tag.
I've got socks for everyone.
Get off the bus.
It's party time.
We went, we had so much fun because like if you're so many people at the bowling place,
they give you like a little package where it's open bar, which just makes everything
more fun.
So we had bowling alleys.
People were in the arcade.
We did a big game of laser tag where like I actually almost went into cardiac arrest.
It's like not nearly as labor.
It was way more labor intensive than I remember.
I could have told you.
I sat out the laser tag because I just knew.
Plus that vest you have to put on your chest like, ugh.
Yeah. And I would have gotten a clogged on your chest, like, ugh. Yeah.
And I would have gotten a clogged duct.
It's way too heavy.
A hundred percent.
So for that reason, I have to sit out.
So we did that for a couple hours, and then we went to the club.
It was like the perfect combo of good family, friendly fun, partying.
People are saying, Ben's friend Matt said that it was the best birthday party he's been
to in 10 years.
In the decade, that's what he said.
What was the party 10 years ago that couldn't be beat?
I don't know, but I must murder the person so that mine actually that
would only make their party even better like it was their last great hurrah right so maybe I'll
just murder I'll leave it as is leave it as is it's so funny it was so fun and like I haven't
bowled in so long and that's how you know that the world is healing and that COVID is over if
if I am bowling and sticking my fingers into those holes it's really disgusting it was so disgusting but I sanitized
after every trip down the alley yeah and you were very good I was very good everyone's always so
surprised when I'm just so competent at everything and not to like be that person but it's it's we
talk about this all the time like I am not not great at anything, but I am good at everything.
What would you rather be?
I would say you're great at being Bryce's mom.
You're great at being Harold's mom.
You know what I mean?
You're an amazing podcaster.
You're actually an excellent, excellent dancer, like above average.
Oh, that's true.
So don't put yourself down, girly.
No, but I can do a little bit of everything, but I don't, like, excel at one particular skill,
like how you sing, you know?
Right, and, yeah, and act and comedy, yeah.
Yeah, but it's nice,
because then, like, whenever we're doing something,
I can hold my own.
And if we had gone to an escape room,
even though it would kill me to play a game,
like, I would have cracked it.
Of course.
Like, you literally need to do escape rooms professionally.
You would be so good at it.
You're so smart. Mostly because I just want to get out of there so like
I'll just figure it out for everyone motivated I'm very motivated also the funniest thing happened
while we were bowling because there was a lot of food which was delicious and gorgeous and in
between like every time I was bowling obviously I would sanitize or wash my hands before I picked
up food because it was really like finger food from the common space right which is like there's
nothing grosser than bowling and bowling plus eating is like it's wrong it's you shouldn't do
it and I heard Ben say he was like don't use your bowling hand he was yelling at his friend Victor
he's like don't use your bowling hand for the food I'm like thank you Ben please no one use
your bowling hand for the food it's gross he goes not gross grease you'll get grease in the ball and
you won't be able to bowl as well oh because I was gonna say
if Ben is warning us on hygiene like we are in trouble he was not he was warning because he was
worried how it was gonna affect your game if you had grease on your fingers so Ben I was just like
well at least we have the common goal the same right well also um just major shout out like the
food was literally so good I people are still talking about the honey mustard sauce like people
are like quaking to get the recipe yeah, the cheese flatbread was really good when it
was hot is what I'll say. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Um, so it was great. I feel like I, I did my birthday
really well. And then Sunday was your actual birthday and we had great family time, which is
just like my kind of birthday. You sit around eating beauty and the beast rolled. I pretty
much spent my whole birthday with world. Cause I was with him all day Saturday and Sunday and honestly I think
that's why I'm feeling so like at peace with my birthday.
You know what you were doing this weekend?
Rolled in. Rolled in. Rolled in on the river.
No, actually I was kind of rolled in in the deep.
Actually, and this is actually a good segue, I was on the road again. I just can't wait to get on the road again.
And speaking of, I am going on the road again.
Yes, you are.
Please tell us, you guys, I'm so happy that I can announce to you
that Claudia's NLOG tour continues because I saw the final show
and then I saw it and I was like, more people need to see this.
A hundred percent.
So honestly, when I first announced like a new tour,
I was like so insecure coming off of Dirty Jeans.
I felt like-
DJT.
DJT.
I didn't think we could get better than DJT.
And I really felt like it was a fluke.
Like I put all my funny stories, everything into one.
And like, it was just going to live in infamy forever.
Just so you know, that's how everyone feels about everything.
Authors and their first book, you know?
With the first, yeah.
With the first.
So then like when my team was
like let's put together another tour I'm like yeah yeah yeah and I really oh my god oh my god
she was so verklempt when the team said it I was trying to grab my lipstick she was verklempt I was
um I was really like just being conservative I'm like let's do smaller venues less shows like I'm
just not confident in my abilities and then after like the first 10 or 15 shows I'm like oh my god
I'm literally born to do this I'm the the funniest person alive. Like the fact that other comedians
even bother getting up in the morning is hilarious. And then towards the end, I was like,
we need to do more. So now I feel like confident. So if you're, I'll, sorry. So it's the same show.
So if you've already seen it, you're more than welcome to come again, but it's not new material.
I'm going to finish out this year with this material because I really feel like more people
should see it. Agreed. And then I need to see it again. So it's se new material I'm going to finish out this year with this material because I really feel like more people should see it agreed and then I need to see it again so it's
seared into my memory so this week there will be three shows announced that are just local shows
it's Red Bank New Jersey New Haven Connecticut and West Hampton because I'm like literally say
that again I wasn't paying attention Red Bank New Jersey great New Haven Connecticut awesome
West Hampton New York the Hamptons no like literally am I who's famous in the
Hamptons Jon Bon Jovi Jerry Springer am I like people like live out there
celebrities are always like when it is oh you know who's been spotted in the
Hamptons recently Amber Heard dining at LeBille bouquet in Sag Harbor and
shopping at TJ Maxx in the
Hamptons. Oh really? I think at Bridge Hampton Commons. Where you got your sneakers? Oh my god
so Sag went to Bridge Hampton Commons TJ Maxx for me and I needed sneakers because I forgot to pack
them because I forgot to pack everything because I have a baby and he was fully packed and had
outfits for days. For months he could have stayed. And he came back with all this stuff for me and
like it was so premium. I'm like so jealous of your sneakers every time you wear them.
I love them.
They're Adidas sneakers and they're so comfortable.
No, TJ Maxx is everything.
And obviously Amber Heard knows that.
So those are the three shows announcing this week.
When's West Hampton?
Just in case I wanted to like make a weekend in the Hamptons.
I want to say August 12th.
Oh, it's soon.
Hampton's in the summer.
Of course.
Wow.
It's going to be lit.
And it's a Friday night.
So like we can go out afterwards.
It's going to be so fun. And then the rest of the shows. I just want to get those local shows out. No offense to's going to be lit. And it's a Friday night. So like we can go out afterwards. It's going to be so fun.
And then the rest of the shows.
I just want to get those local shows out.
No offense to Red Bank and New Haven.
Those are going to be premium as well.
As well.
Yes.
And then all the places I didn't go.
You know like Charlotte.
My favorite city in the world.
Charlotte.
I want to name some others.
But I honestly don't want to say the incorrect one.
And I can't remember which ones we decided to go with.
And which ones we didn't.
Okay.
But just on behalf of a certain, um, geographical location, could I ask if there
will be a Nashville show? Oh, um, yes, there will. Okay, good. I was, that was, that was the
impetus behind the whole second tour. Like the Nashville toasters basically, um, came to my house
and slaughtered my throat and like killed my family. Um, so then I was like, all right, well, I have to add Nashville.
So let's add a bunch more.
Great.
I'm so happy for the Nashville Toasters.
I never stopped fighting for you.
She didn't ever.
Not once.
Nary, not once.
Yeah.
I was like, you can go back on the road as long as you're going to Nashville.
So all those shows will be announced coming soon.
But this week there are some local shows.
And I'm really excited, even though like now, like the pit starts again.
Yes.
But you live for the pit, you know, and you live for the drama.
I resent that and I don't.
No, but you do.
It's just like how even with MSG, like you were so nervous, so nervous.
You were pooping.
I can't wait till I'm pooping and I don't have a show ahead of me.
And then you were deeply depressed when it was over.
That's actually so fucking true.
So you like it.
And that's part of being the performer.
I love it.
I love it.
That's why you were born to perform.
Only I only get like a really big pit when I haven't performed in a while because people
are always like, do you get nervous to be in front of the amount of people?
The scale of what I'm doing never like gets me.
It's always, will I remember what Joe comes next?
Like always the structure of the show, even though I literally wrote it, it's embedded
in me.
I'm always nervous.
I'm going to like literally just blank.
And I have blanked before, but you would never know because I'm such a consummate professional well that's because you're just
funny so even if you didn't remember you know the thing you were supposed to say you say anything
it's funny right right but I just like I'm really hard on myself about like remembering everything
to go in order yeah and that's really hard for you considering my memory I should have literally
gone into any other business you know yeah so and log is coming back and that's kind of like
the breaking news of the day you know know, like kind of the week.
I feel like that's really what everyone's talking about.
I agree.
Now they will be.
Now that you told them.
100%.
Great.
Well, I feel like we've covered everything from the long weekend.
Yeah.
Oh, I read such a cute book last night.
I actually read like.
Like in one night?
Yeah.
I probably, I would say it up till three finishing it.
You're on a really big reading kick and I'm so proud of you.
And I, I, I'm actually shocked that it's lasted this long usually you go like a week you read a lot you
read enough bad books that you go back to tv and then I don't read for six months right but you're
still on your reading kick I am you share and I actually finished my book and started a new one
so I have some updates this is like a classic book everyone's been telling me to read and like
I started it and it was so dumb I'm like this is embarrassing I got three percent and I was like I
can't and then last night I just could not find something to read. So I just was like, let me pick it back
up. Cause I hate having unfinished books. What's it called? The Love Hypothesis. Oh my God. That's
all over Goodreads. And it's one of those books that I just won't read for the sake of it. Jackie,
it was so cute. Like at midnight, Ben was like, can we please go to bed? I'm like, yeah,
I couldn't go to bed. I'm like, I was like maybe 75%, but I still had an hour and a half left.
And I was like tossing and turning. I'm like, I was like maybe 75%, but I still had an hour and a half left. And I was like tossing and turning.
I'm like, let me just finish this fucking book.
And I literally stayed up till three.
It was so cute.
It was, the ending bothered me a little.
Like she was just like dragging it out a little bit.
And like everyone in the book was scientists.
So like there was like so many science like metaphors
and like it was like a little too much science,
but it was really cute. Like it was like a like a little too much science but it was really
cute like it was adorable I loved it so it's worth all the hype and every list that it's on and why
Goodreads is always pushing it and it's like always everywhere yeah okay good I'm glad I'm glad
that quality books are the ones that are being pushed forward like that not books like no offense
the people you meet on vacation. I hated that book.
And now I won't read Beach Read or her new one, Book Lovers, because it just wasn't for me.
There was so much hype.
And I finished it and it was like cute and whatever.
I'm like, but this is the book everyone's quaking over?
They were sweating the whole time.
I know.
Oh my God.
It was like kind of gross.
Yeah.
What did you read?
So I finished Tom Segura's book.
He's a comedian and a podcaster and a parent.
So it was a perfect thing. And he's, I think I spoke about this. He's a comedian and a podcaster and a parent so it was a perfect thing
and he's,
I think we spoke about this,
he's married to Christina P.
We did.
So,
I'm like now such a big fan of theirs.
No,
we just keep talking about them
until Tom reaches out
because Christina already has.
And it's funny
because like we podcast
sort of in a vacuum
like and actually
we're friends with a lot
of the other like
female podcasters
but we don't really know
any of the other
comedy podcasters.
because we are a pop culture comedy podcast and when it comes to like't really know any of the other comedy podcasters yeah because we are a
pop culture comedy podcast and when it comes to like our social life we know the other pop culture
podcast yeah we really don't know the other like comedian podcasters right that are on the charts
alongside us and when I remember Heather McDonald yeah but when I she's pop culture yeah when I
picked up his book and it's like he has two podcasts one your mom's house which then I
looked at the cover art I always see it and the other one two bears one cave that's always on the
chart always on the chart so it's so nice to like now know the people and appreciate their work
you're knowing your neighbors we sit alongside them so I and then the other people are like
Conan and those guys from the office yeah um Tim Dillon Tim Dillon who I love yeah actually my
favorite comedian so to be alongside him, it's an honor.
It's simply an honor.
It's just an honor to see our photos side by side sometimes.
No, when I think about like the male comedy podcasters, like you'll send me clips of like
things you find funny or I'll just see them on TikTok or Instagram reels.
And they're always saying like crazy, outrageous things.
And like, of course, I find it so funny.
But I also find it shocking that like they say the most crazy things like completely
unaffected. And like we are like, I things like completely unaffected and like we are
like I'm like kept up at night by like one thing I said six months ago that like I I didn't mean
and it was like do people think I take it the wrong way is BuzzFeed gonna write an article
about it like and these other like mostly male podcasters are just off saying the most fucking
insane like controversial shit I'm like I wonder if they like are kept up at night no I think we
just have really different audiences.
I think so too.
You know?
Yeah.
So it was a really good book.
Five stars.
Book of short stories.
If you're into comedy, recommend highly.
I actually recommend it to you too.
And then I started two nights ago, The Hotel Nantucket by Ellen Hildebrand.
It's her new book.
And I'm 6% in and she hooked me.
Yeah, she's, that one's on my list.
The writing is just like fast.
You will like it in the first chapter.
I really like Ellen Hildebrandt, but like Homegirl could cut a few pages.
It wouldn't kill her.
It wouldn't kill her at all.
Yeah, I guess.
But she, you know, she does what she does and it's working for her.
Yeah, obviously.
Like she's like, who the fuck is this?
Shut up, girl.
You wrote one book and it was literally five pages long.
Oh, Prime Day is over, but I hope you guys were able to get a copy of my book on Prime Day.
What'd you get on Prime Day?
I got...
What the fuck did I get?
I finally, all day I was looking for things,
and this happens to me every Prime Day,
where I'm like, I need stuff,
so I invent stuff that I need,
and then I put it in my cart,
and I usually don't get anything,
so I'm like, I don't need this crap.
Why would I buy it?
Then I did buy, like, two things yesterday.
Dumb things.
Nothing Prime-y, even. By the time I clicked to buy, the deal was over. Right, right, right. Because there's like a little countdown.
But I had a really good idea for Prime Day that I shared with you yesterday. You did. Because Prime
Day, like the lead up, it's overwhelming. And then people have things that they think they want to
get. And then I think a lot of people like quake under the pressure. It's so much pressure. And
don't end up really
fulfilling their Prime Day dreams. So here's what I propose to Amazon if anyone's listening. Prime
Day is too much pressure. Everyone's shopping at the same time and like we're all verklempt.
And I think that every Amazon Prime user should have their own individual Prime Day whenever
they choose. They get one day per year. They say Jeff put me in coach I'm ready to prime I know what I
need right now I'm in a place where I need things and I want to use all my prime day savings today
yeah well then also it creates like this so I got a new kindle I took a lot of recommendations that
I ended up getting the oasis did I wind up getting a new kindle I meant to right well here's my
dilemma I have the kindle paperwhite I love love it so much, but it's crapping
out. I had to restart it the other night because it looked like, you know, a TV static machine.
I restarted it and now it works. But I do have a Kindle Oasis that was meant to be Zach's that
he didn't use. So now it's mine. And I could always move to that. So I do have a backup.
You don't need it. I don't need to get a new one. But I kind of want a new Paperwhite because I did
read two books on the Oasis and it wasn't enough to hook me. Yeah. So I got it. You don't need to get a new one. But I kind of want a new paperwhite because I did read two books on the Oasis
and it wasn't enough to hook me.
Yeah, so I got it.
And I also got a new knife set
because I was literally cutting an apple the other day,
like a saw, like it was a piece of wood.
It was like back, forth, back.
You look like a piece of wood.
You look like a piece of wood.
Honestly, Shazza Sunset Getting Cancelled
is a disgrace to humanity.
It's a disgrace to the culture
and it's a disgrace to women who are actually beautiful.
And to women who look like piece of wood.
You look like, there's so many, like, literally when I'm with my friends from high school,
all we do is quote Shazza Sunset.
It's so funny.
You look like piece of wood.
Your cans look sick.
When MJ got to the altar, her husband looked at her and was like, your cans look sick.
I know.
You know what other cans look sick?
Spritz Society.
Yeah.
By the way, I just want to say, I was drinking Spritz Society at your birthday and I full mark turn this off
if you're listening I snuck a few cans in for myself because it was just my drink of choice
and I didn't want to have a watered down vodka soda that's not gonna happen like I never get
out I want a fucking Spritz and I put it in my purse and everybody was jealous of me and it was
so delicious I haven't had a night out on peach yet I've like had one tasted
them we had the uh influencer event but like to party on peach no this is like the third time I've
been out with spritz like in the party bus when we did um when we were in the Hamptons we went to
bounce they bounce was carrying spritz like we had it at the club it's just a perfect drink like for
a club it's a great chaser for a shot of tequila it's a great thing to drink when you don't want
to like keep drinking hard alcohol yeah and it's a great when you're like
the granny in the group but you want to drink it's just like not aggressively right oh my god it was

Also, this is so random,
I just found out a piece of trivia that I wanted to share.
You found out a piece of what?
Do you know what RSVP stands for?
No. And have you
ever thought about what it stands for? No. And have you ever thought about what it stands for?
No.
Respond soon.
Very please.
Literally, I thought the same thing.
No.
Respondez, s'il vous plaît.
Oh, my God.
I didn't know RSVP was French.
I know.
And it's funny how RSVP has become a verb,
so nobody even remembers that it's an acronym,
and maybe we should be thinking about what it stands for.
Oh, my God. Respondez, s'il vous plaît. Respondez, s'il vous plaît. Oh, my God. Thank you for that. become a verb so nobody even remembers that's an acronym and like maybe we should be thinking about what it stands for oh my god respond this please respond this please oh my god thank you
for that i think actually rsvpbn respond this please good night thank you for that fun fact
you're welcome now i feel like maybe it'll come up in like jeopardy or something i didn't know
that i spoke french precisely it might the morning christine yeah we should do a fun fact of the day like snapple
since they changed their cans no let's talk about the whole thing let's talk about the things people
need us to talk about so diet snapple which has been literally the greatest beverage on the planet
since earth's genesis um since literal genesis literally has gone through a change now the first change is that if you go
to your store you will not find diet snapple it's called diet snapple zero sugar no it's not it's
called snapple zero sugar sorry snapple zero sugar because I guess the word diet is like a slur now
um so don't be confused because I did instacart and these things arrived and on Instacart,
it said diet Snapple. And then when it arrived, it said Snapple. I'm like, Oh my God, I,
I would never drink. Not that I care about like calories, but like it's really too sugary. I
don't even know what it tastes like because to me it's like drinking acid. Like you just,
you obviously drink diet Snapple. What sociopath drinks regular Snapple? Like it's psychotic to me.
Yeah. And I'm like, Oh my God, I can't't use this and then I looked on the back and it was like low-cal big flab five calories I'm like wait
Snapple was diet Snapple was zero calories is this the new diet Snapple they added five calories to
be like to appease like diet culture it's always had that oh I thought it always had zero uh no
it's always had like negligible amount of calories right okay whatever so i was just like
oh my god i had to do like the the research on my own to realize that diet snapple doesn't exist
anymore it's snapple zero sugar you had to educate yourself i had to humble myself and educate myself
and i just think it's really dumb because like if something's perfect don't change it i agree and by
the way we missed glass bottles they nothing was tastier nothing like these this still tastes good but like they do still taste it doesn't taste the same if you can't go
right if you know you can't get a little glass in your bottle no yeah breaking the bottom I mean
have you ever dropped a full 12 12 cases snapple in your kitchen floor and it shattered completely
because I have oh maybe that's why they stopped doing glass it's worth the risk it's worth the
risk but I will say it still tastes pretty good.
And the new bottles have a saying that has just taken over my life, which is locale big
flav.
Locale big flav.
And I think they mean flavor.
Yeah.
Flav.
Or flav.
But F-L-A-V is flav.
So that's added a lot of joy to my every day.
Every time I see it, I chuckle.
I just feel like this whole like diet culture conversation
has taken on like a life of its own.
Because like, yes, are there parts of diet culture that are so toxic?
Yes.
But is having the word diet in your like beverage title
like gonna have a negative impact on people?
Like, no.
No.
And there are parts of everything that are so toxic.
Did you see those accountants cheating on their CPA exam? i did like the ethics part no less either engage or disengage
yeah some people like diet culture right that's true some people like diets have helped them right
no for sure it's just like it's and i just don't think like the problem with diet culture is going
to be solved with snapple changing their name.
At least they kept Big Flav.
So true.
For those of us who love Flav.
For the Flav culture, which is so toxic, by the way.
For Flavor Flav.
Flavor of love.
Oh, man, don't get me started.
I'll go into my Tiffany Pollard monologue.
I prefer Flavor of love, but that's just me.
Me too, because we're women of taste, obviously.
Yeah, and you know what?
Like, maybe we should get into the fast side stories. Sure, I just want i didn't meet flavor flav did you yeah yeah simon's wedding he wasn't
even at the wedding the wedding was at a hotel and he just happened to be at the bar and i went
to the bathroom and he was standing there with the clock and i'm like is that flavor flav and
did you say what time is it summertime no i said what time is it? Flavor time. It's a vacation.
What time is it?
Flower time.
Time of our lives.
Screams out.
Lay in the shop.
Okay, we could go on, but I think maybe you're right.

Our first story, the big story of the day, though there are many big stories, I would
say this is the biggest.
I'm curious what you consider the biggest.
Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star Jen Shah pleads guilty in fraud case.
I actually would consider the Fanny story the bigger story, but maybe that's just because
I'm so invested in it.
Perhaps.
I just feel like this is it. This is the big news. Jen Shah pleaded guilty on Monday
in her federal fraud case, according to court documents obtained by Page Six. Shah appeared
in front of U.S. District Judge Sidney Stein at 1030 a.m. Eastern Time in Manhattan Federal Court
for a surprise hearing, during which she changed her previous not guilty plea. She pled guilty to
count one conspiracy to commit wire fraud in connection with telemarketing. The U.S. attorney
agreed to drop count two conspiracy to commit money laundering. The judge made sure Jen understood
the change and that she faces a maximum penalty of 30 years in prison and five years of supervised
release but her plea agreement called for only 11 to 14 years behind bars and restitution of up to
9.5 million dollars prior to the one count being dropped she had faced 50 years in prison and was
scheduled to go on trial july 18th her sentencing is now scheduled for november so we continue to
wait but she has pled guilty so i mean when you guilty, I think mostly that's because you agree to a deal. It lessens your sentence.
So I think it's pretty much certain now she will be doing some time in prison.
It's just a matter of how much time that is.
And if you plead guilty, that means there's no trial.
There's no cross-examination.
She just gets sentenced and her sentence will be in November.
Yeah.
So this is so unexpected and so crazy, not because I don't think she's guilty.
I think there's literally no shadow of a doubt
in my mind that she is guilty,
but because she's so like indignant
and like so almost like patronizing in her innocence.
You know, she's going to fight for all the people
who've ever been wronged.
So the fact that she admitted to herself,
let alone her lawyers and the government and the world that she's guilty, that's what's so shocking to me about this. Not the fact that she admitted to herself, let alone her lawyers and the government and the world that she's guilty,
that's what's so shocking to me about this.
Not the fact that she's guilty.
I wouldn't be surprised if she takes the route of saying that she took a plea
deal because she like couldn't win and that she's still innocent,
but you know,
she didn't have a choice and made the best choice.
And I would not be surprised if she maintains her innocence socially. Right.
But in the court it just was the best sense legally the best
decision legally. Though I agree with you like I think she's guilty you know
Stu was gonna testify against her like there even if they went to
trial likely she would have been proven guilty but somehow like admitting guilt
just you know
she's so stubborn yeah the I mean the odds were so stacked against her like the case against her
is so strong and then her assistant slash partner slash whatever he is turning on her and agreeing
to testify against her to save his ass was like the final nail in the coffin and even then she
didn't even blink or act like it made a big deal because made a difference because she was so innocent.
It's,
it's really so crazy.
And I'm just curious,
you know,
what her sentencing is going to be.
Yeah.
Because the plea deal like calls for 11 to 14 years.
So she's going to jail for a minimum of 11 years,
right?
Like a maximum of 14 years,
but still it's going to be even one year, two years, three years.
No, she will be in prison.
She will be in prison.
And her crimes, like, I can't help but compare them to Teresa's.
Her crimes are way worse than Teresa's
because Teresa's were self-serving.
The only person Teresa was frauding was the government.
And honestly, we've all thought about it once or twice,
you know, evading your taxes.
They weren't stealing money from other people.
Like, Jen was taking,
not only was she stealing money from innocent people,
a lot of them, it was particularly vulnerable communities I can't
imagine a judge feeling sympathetic no to a person like that right and I don't think her presence on
the show helped helps garner sympathy because she doesn't seem apologetic you know she's very
indignant and the life she was leading was so outrageous. Then when you really think about like these just poor, old.
Like that's what someone's retirement fund was your handbag.
Right.
It makes it so much worse.
And like even with Teresa, like what, you really could see a world in which she's not
the brightest bulb in the shed.
Like you could see a world in which she was taken advantage of by her husband.
And at the end of the day, the only people they were defrauding were the government.
Like, I can't imagine, even if she had gone to trial, I think it would have been so much worse
because you don't know who a jury is made up of.
Someone has a mom who was taken advantage.
You know, like, so I can't imagine a scenario in which a judge doesn't impose, like, a maximum sentence
because not only are, they're financial crimes and there's no, like, you know, nobody's dead.
But it's so egregious like
the targeting of vulnerable communities the disabled the elderly like it's so fucked up
it's so fucked up and so I think we've all known you know she was likely guilty now she's admitting
guilt and my question is what is Bravo gonna do here you have a housewife who just said that she
is guilty of defrauding these vulnerable elderly people.
Right.
Does that cause for being fired?
Are you going to film her tomorrow?
Like, really?
Of course they are.
That's so fucked to me.
Like, I can't help but think of Jenny Nguyen, you know?
Oh.
Because they're the same franchise.
Like, she got fired for her political opinions and unsavory opinions.
Whereas Jen Cha has just admitted that she did these things these terrible things she's facing up to 14 years in prison yet still they're gonna
keep a camera on her that's a really interesting point I totally literally if you never brought up
Jenny Wednesday ever again I would never have remembered her because she was so irrelevant and
she should have been fired for being irrelevant she popped into my head this morning and I was like, hmm.
Right.
And now the Jen thing has totally eclipsed Jenny.
So like nobody even remembers Jenny.
But that's a fair point because Jenny Nguyen was just guilty of not speaking correctly.
Whereas like, yeah, Jen Cha.
But see, like Jenny Nguyen also wasn't adding literally any value to the show I
know so it's more nuanced than that no but it's not when it comes to like hiring and firing based
on crimes or perceived crimes it's not about who's more entertaining otherwise Leigh-Anne would still
be on the show that's so true okay it's like so hard to argue with you because like you're just
like right um but I'm nevertheless she persisted let me just continue i know but i do agree with you but also at the end of the day
like bravo's bottom line is ratings is entertainment and that's the whole this literally the story was
breaking news okay so then why was leanne fired why was stassi fired she's rating she's entertainment
yeah yeah no well no because well Bravo released a statement with Jenny when
they released a statement with Stassi too is that they don't want to be associated with
those types of behaviors but they want to be associated with this I think yes I think they
do actually that's the that's that I actually think they do okay like for real like it it's
salacious and people don't look at it the way that we look at it which is like so unethical like so immoral what she did they look at it as like this juicy same with erica
jane yeah but i think people are able to separate it because it was erica jane's husband if this was
sharif we would not be having this conversation of course right but also no i feel like and even
it was joe more yes i don't even theres Teresa kind of is like irrelevant to the conversation to me.
But I think that people are more angry at Erica.
Than they are at Jen.
Than they are at Jen.
I agree.
I think also people like want to see Erica.
Fail.
Go down and like they have a reason now.
Yeah.
A real reason.
Yeah.
No, I think the conversation is
particularly nuanced and I I'm not sure what the right answer is because this is what we talk about
all the time when it comes to cancel culture like there's a difference between you know saying
something bad and doing something bad you know one of them is a crime and the other is just like you
know unpopular so the energy that we reserve for people who have old tweets or people whose
political opinions we don't like or people who have posted things that we don't agree with like
is so much bigger that energy we have to cancel them is always like so much bigger than the energy
we have for people who actually like do horrendous things like yeah illegal crimes who hurt other
people and that's where cancel culture is flawed because if only we had the type of energy for,
let me think of a good example.
Hold on.
If only we had the type of energy that we have for Dave Chappelle.
Let's channel that energy towards like a Chris Brown, you know?
Who actually like hurts women on the daily.
As opposed to Chappelle who considers himself an artist and this is his art you know
yeah so it is complex it is not to me really but I can see how yeah Bravo might find itself
confused and I think Bravo does has no problem associating themselves with crime honestly like
I don't think they find it nearly as abhorrent as like Jenny Nguyen or
Stassi that's insane yeah that's insane and I I mean I'll I'm curious to see what they do they
probably won't do anything but they're not gonna do anything no fucking scruples it's not no
motherfucking scruples they're not gonna do anything this is the biggest story in the world
and they're at the center of it and they're not gonna you know put their morals on blast and be
like oh no we couldn't possibly like everyone's
talking about it it's a new franchise like for networks like the bottom line
is the bottom line you know but I think they've hurt their own bottom line in
the past in you know service of their so-called values yeah perhaps perhaps
so that's that on that we'll see you in November um keeps getting pushed back like I just I'm ready
I know story to rest I know and the more it like gets pushed off it sort of desensitizes you to
them to the magnitude of the crimes 100 that's how I feel 100 okay our competing big story of
the day Lea Michele is taking over for Beanie Feldstein in Funny Girl on Broadway the news
came out um this week Lea Michele is set to take overanie Feldstein in Funny Girl on Broadway. The news came out this week.
Lea Michele is set to take over Beanie Feldstein's starring role in Funny Girl,
the Broadway production announced on Monday.
The announcement comes on the heels of Beanie's shocking Instagram post late on Sunday
in which she revealed she was leaving the show earlier than expected.
Lea will begin performances on Tuesday, September 6th,
alongside the cast and Tony nominee Tova Feldschuh,
who will be taking over for Jane Lynch.
Didn't even know Jane Lynch was a part of it.
Oh, you didn't know that?
And so now another element of this extremely layered story is that
Lea Michele and Jane Lynch will not even overlap at all,
even though they were technically supposed to because of Jane's date.
Do you think that...
Jane hates Lea?
Yeah.
So, okay, let's start from the beginning. Let's unpack this. Because of the's date. Do you think that Jane hates Leah? Yeah. So, okay.
Let's start from the beginning.
Let's unpack this.
Because of the glee.
I read a,
like an expose.
People,
there's not like a,
nobody knows really
the truth of what happened,
but there was this big expose
that came out this morning
and I did read it.
And essentially what it was is,
Who put out the expose?
I don't want to say their name
because they're discussing
publication who should rot.
Oh, okay.
Cool.
But nevertheless, and if it's probably filled with as many lies as the article they wrote
about us then i shouldn't believe a word of it so basically beanie was cast and almost immediately
the reviews were abysmal um she is not a great singer and not only is it broadway where you have
to be a great singer the role of fanny all the songs of course don't rain on my parade when you think of all the songs it's like the
it's really a role for one of the greatest singers in the world not a girl who can sing
not a girl who can carry a tune right and I feel like a lot of us didn't even know that Beanie
could sing and it's just one of those things like a party trick you know like she has a nice voice
she probably performed in the talent show so I it does feel like when Funny Girl was announced
and they were doing the casting,
the directors went out of their way not to cast Lea Michele.
She's so the obvious choice.
First of all, she looks like Barbra Streisand.
She is notorious for being obsessed with Funny Girl
as Lea Michele and also as Rachel Berry.
There's a generation of people who only know what Funny Girl is
because of Rachel Berry and Lea Michele.
So it's like they really went out of their way not to choose her and of course you know business is
business they didn't want to be associated with someone who's having like a big scandal at the
time and I do think that was a mistake because Beanie was a flop almost instantly and it's not
for lack of trying I think what I read was that in the beginning she was a delight to work with
she knew the reviews weren't negative but the you know the production rallied around her it was
always really warm but where things got really icky
is like Beanie got COVID
and then she took a break a little bit.
So the understudy, Julie Benko,
played who was unbelievable
because she's a Broadway star.
And people started coming for Julie Benko
and I think a lot of people thought
when Beanie left, Julie would replace her
because she was phenomenal.
And that's just always like,
your understudy should be good
but not better than you. And so that's where things started to get icky and then in june early june
there was an article from gawker that leah michelle was in talks with the production to take over once
beanie left and when beanie read that she became like incensed no one from the production was
allowed to talk to her they only had to talk to her team she was going to leave early she was always going to leave early and then randomly posted on
Instagram that she's leaving even earlier nobody even knew that she was posting that like something
about the Lea Michele like set her off I'm sure which is funny because when she got the part she
was doing press for the Monica Lewinsky show and of course Andy being like the shady shady
shaderston that he is asked her about it and she was like oh my god i
didn't even know like this was a thing i don't know this woman at all like she had no well she
said she had no clue about like the drama so if you don't know her and you don't know about like
the rachel berry of it all like why did the lea michelle news bother you so much you knew you
were only doing it for six months someone else was gonna have to do it yeah so what the lea being So Leah being the person after her, like, allegedly made her really mad
and caused even more strife within the production.
But they had an inside source from the production team
talking to this insider article.
And essentially the takeaway was, like, Beanie was horrendous.
The reviews were abysmal and embarrassing.
But they decided to stand behind her, you know, stick with her and just ride it out but then ticket sales were
dropping so low and like a production is has investors it's a business you you this is a
business so they were making you know plans for a big star to come in and obviously it was it
should have always been Lea Michele um and that really pissed Beanie off but now I want to talk
about the the decision to go with Leah,
because I, for one, am absolutely overjoyed.
The good news.
The good news.
Like, Leah Michelle was meant to play this role.
Say what you want about her.
Leah Michelle is one of the most talented singers,
actresses, and Broadway stars of our time.
This role couldn't have been written,
was written as much for her as it was written for Robert Streisand.
Like, it's literally, I do have to say, I love that they're,
even though Beanie didn't work out,
I do love that both of the girls are Jewish because it's a Jewish role.
And, like, I just love that.
It's so authentic.
And Leah's going to be marvelous.
And people on Broadway and, like, the theater space are, like, enraged.
They hate it.
But talent is talent.
And nobody can sing like Lea Michele.
I'm sure she knows the play by heart already.
She didn't even have to go to rehearsal.
She'll just show up on the first day and do everything she's ever done.
She's going to be sensational and you can either fight it or you can lean in
and try and get tickets.
Who would fight it aside from Beanie?
I guess the Broadway people,
but like Lea's a Broadway girly.
No,
people who think she's extremely difficult to work with.
That was like her big scandal.
right,
right.
Her big scandal on Glee was that she was a nightmare.
And we knew a little bit about it from Naya Rivera's book,
but it didn't really blow up
until a lot of the cast members started to talk about it.
And now it's just like a general thing,
like Leah's a diva and she's mean and she's a bitch
and she hides people's wigs.
I do believe the scandal has humbled her to no end.
I have to imagine she will be an absolute delight
to work with this time around to prove everyone wrong.
And I'm like, you know what?
It's going to be great.
And that's literally all that matters.
Like people come to a Broadway show
for the singing, the dancing, and the acting,
and nobody does it better than Leah.
So you can fight it.
But as Kurt Hummel once said,
she might be difficult, but boy, can she sing.
Totally.
And you know what?
Like, there's no one better.
I'm sorry.
There's no one better.
People were disappointed it wasn't Julie Bancow,
the understudy.
And you know what?
She probably would have been great too.
But they need a star.
Beanie was supposed to be-
They need to breathe life into this production.
And Beanie was supposed to reprise the role,
win the Tony, like, be that girl. and she was not even close to being that girl and they should have done Leah from the
beginning and now they're making it right and I'm sure Leah wanted to be the one to reprise the role
and be eligible for the Tony and have it be her thing but I'm sure she's just fucking grateful
to be getting the role now and she'll be great and if you hate her then that's fine but you can't
deny that she's going to be excellent. And I would be shocked, really shocked,
if she behaves in the way that she did when she was younger.
Agreed.
After everything that has happened.
No, she's going to be heavenly.
I imagine she has learned a lot.
Yeah.
And will be singing a different tune.
Literally.
Though in the same gorgeous pitch.
Yeah.
And by the way, the production must be happy with their choice.
Literally, the resale value on their tickets is, you want shitty seat it'll cost you 800 for opening night of course you have to go i'm trying everything that i can if you watch glee
like you know the if you don't know what we're talking about like you don't know why this is a
big deal but if you watch glee like you know the cultural significance of rachel barry of
leah michelle of fanny bryce Funny Girl. And like the fact that literally art,
well, life is imitating art right now is just so crazy.
And the fact that really it's like the fans and the outcry
that probably played a really big role in this.
I do feel like oftentimes, you know,
we'll all say so-and-so should be so-and-so
and they're like, shut up.
You don't make the decision.
But I do feel like the fandom really helped sway the decision here. I would have been also really happy if it was Shoshana Bean
another Jewish queen who has one of the best voices I've ever heard in my life but um I'm
happy with this decision perhaps next you know what I did think was interesting about I read in
the article um just like a conflict of interest thing is that Beanie and Lea Michele have the
same talent agent so like it's kind of like like a conflict of interest that is weird yeah I'm sure
like how can you represent your client to the best of your abilities when you also have the
interests of another client who you want to represent to the best of their abilities damn
it's weird yeah this whole thing is like so dramatic and I would love to really really
everything I've said here is purely like speculation speculation I was gonna say
skepticism there is so much smoke here from not even that
article that you read I heard many similar things you know there's Dumois there's other insiders
saying this and that there's so much smoke and by the way just looking at it on its face it's like
Beanie was cast there was a lot of you know excitement for Lea Michele and it kind of
eclipsed Beanie's casting and everyone said should have been her now Beanie's stepping back she's
announcing too early and then they also announced Lea and Michelle like no there's something there a fire and you
know for a role like this reprising a role Beanie would have ordinarily in this situation done it
for a year and then a couple weeks ago it was like there's only a few more months to see Beanie
and then people put together that she was only doing it for six months which is just bizarre
and now she she's ending early she will have done it for four months.
Damn.
Yeah.
And, you know, I do kind of feel bad for Beanie because it's like so awkward and whatever.
I do believe she tried her best and I don't think she's a mean person or a bad person,
but it just wasn't the right role for her.
And she was miscast from the very beginning.
Like the one thing about Fanny Bryce is like you have to be able to sing and all the reviews
were about her singing abilities.
And I do feel bad for her and it must be like so awkward these remaining like 15 shows because they're still like 15 days till the end of the month. You should go see it
because then you can really compare. And then you could come here and tell us. And don't go by
the reviews because honestly reviews like in the past are so subjective. We never agree with the
reviews. That's true actually but you know what? I'm about to expose myself hard. I've never seen
Funny Girl the movie or the play. I don't even really. I know like the plot myself hard. I've never seen Funny Girl, the movie. Or the play.
I don't even, I know like the plot of it.
So the first time I see it, like I really want it to be Leah.
Like that's why I feel like it would be so special.
Because my only real association with Funny Girl.
I think you should watch the movie.
I think you should see Beanie.
And then you should go see Leah.
So that you can come here and be an expert on the matter.
You know what?
I think you're right.
That's a fun activity for you.
Hey, Mr.
And by the way like ask
me how upset I was that I wasn't even considered. After Shoshanna. After Shoshanna.
Hey Mr. Ornstein, here I am. I'll march my band out. I'll beat my drum
And if I'm fanned out
Your turn at bat, sir
At least I didn't fake it hot, sir
I guess I did make it
Get ready for me, love
Cause I'm a comer
I've simply gotta march my hot to drum
And no, but it don't nobody is gonna rain on my parade.
So it should have been me, but I'm happy for Lea Michele.
Happy for her and I'm happy for Fanny.
Brassens Strassen, Brassens Strassen, Brassens Strassen, Brassens Strassen, Brass and Strass and Brass and Strass and Brass and Strass and Brass and Strass.
Brass and Strass are also like devastated to have been overlooked.
It should be Fanny Brass.
Also.
And Strass.
And Strass is the understudy.
Yeah.
But I was dying this morning.
I had an epiphany when we were talking about Fanny Brass.
I was like Fanny Brass and Strass.
But also he's Strass and.
No.
Literally if we don't get tickets,
I'm gonna die.
Yeah, no, you need tickets.
You need to watch the movie.
You have homework to do.
Yeah, I do.
Because I want to know
from an expert.
Not from the reviews.
Not from the articles.
You know what I would love to know?
Hmm.
Barbara's opinion.
Who does she think?
She's obviously so close
to the role.
Like, who does she think
should play it?
And what are Barbara's thoughts on Lea Micheleelle because when leah michelle was up and coming
before the disgrace um she really was like the next barbara you know she didn't get her nose
done neither did barbara and she didn't get it done because barbara didn't get it done like
she was like the modern barbara streisand like what does barb barb's think yeah they either have
a very close relationship or none at all yeah i could see Barbara like thinking Leah was annoying but you know what like I think Barbara's annoying totally
I just really annoying people don't like annoying people no and like I'm sorry if you want to be
like a theater girly like you are annoying like you have to be singing all the time like
people think I'm annoying because and I don't even like have that good of a voice like
literally in order to be Rachel Berry slash Leaha Michele like you have to be the most annoying
girl in the world you can't be like a shy little wallflower oh me like no it doesn't work yeah
this comes with the territory except for Gabriella Montez but then she really broke out of her shell
and you know what I'll take her voice wasn't that good no it wasn't but that was like the point yeah
okay let's move on.
If we must. We have exhausted.
If we must.
We have exhausted.
And now it's time for the Emmy nominations, which have been dropped.
And here are the complete list of nominees.
We are going to react and share our votes.
Okay.
As we always do, even though we don't watch the Emmys.
It's always nice to hear what, you know, people think is popular and good.
And I watch way more TV than I do movies.
So when it comes to like the big award shows, I think the one i probably have the most invested in is the emmys
because i haven't seen a movie well i saw top gun and it was so good but other than that yeah best
comedy abbott elementary so good barry unfamiliar curb your enthusiasm so good hacks oh the marvelous mrs mazel season stunk only murders in the building
that's tough ted lasso oh shit what we do in the shadows okay so i do think as much as i don't
think hacks is gonna win i think it'll be between abbott elementary and only murders in the building
abbott elementary is so good yeah you know what's funny you would love it by the way all the shows
that i've seen here they're amazing so that would just say to me, like, then I should watch the other shows in the category
because I'd probably like them too.
You should watch Abbott Elementary.
It's all about the campers and it has, like, such camper counselor energy.
Oh, you told me.
Just, like, doing the best for the kids.
I have so much on my contemplate.
I still haven't watched The Summer I Turned Pretty.
Okay, it's, like, literally 30-minute episodes.
It's good to watch, like, mindlessly.
I haven't turned my TV on aside from Homework and Southern Charm in weeks.
Okay. Like, one day. Just put it on aside from homework and Southern Charm in weeks. Okay.
One day.
Just put it on your plate.
Next,
best actress in a comedy.
Rachel Brosnahan,
Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.
She wasn't good.
I'm sorry.
I love Mrs. Maisel.
This was not the season
for any of them to win.
Okay.
And they had their time.
Yeah.
And their time,
I feel like has passed
and maybe when their final season
they'll have another time.
Or when they do something noteworthy
because this last season
was literally atrocious.
Yes.
Keenta Brunson, Abbott Elementary. She's going to cuoco the flight attendant no l fanning the great show stinks issa ray insecure jean smart hacks
jean smart won last year and honestly like if hacks wants to keep winning emmys they have to
give us more fucking deborah Vance and no more Ava.
But I think Abbott Elementary
is going to get this one.
Okay.
Best actor in a comedy.
Donald Glover,
Atlanta.
Bill Hader,
Barry.
I don't know.
Nicholas Holt,
The Great.
Steve Martin only
murders in the building.
Martin Short only
murders in the building.
Jason Sudeikis,
Ted Lasso.
Oh, Jason Sudeikis.
That's a really tough.
Ted Lasso swept last year. We hadn't watched Ted Lasso. Oh, Jason Sudeikis? But Ted Lasso swept last year.
We hadn't watched Ted Lasso yet,
but they won everything.
Will they win again?
I'm fine with that.
I'm fine with that too.
Interesting that Steve Martin and Martin Short
are up against each other.
That's like always awkward and cute.
Yeah.
And if I had to give it to one of them,
it would be Martin Short.
His character is so fucking funny.
Yeah, he does it the most.
Yeah, even though Steve Martin's also great,
but his character's just not as,
you don't look forward
to hearing him talk.
He's like kind of dreadful.
Yeah, but that's the point.
Yeah, yeah.
The contrast.
Yeah.
Supporting actress in a comedy.
Alex Borstein,
The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.
No.
Hannah Einbender, Hacks.
No.
It's funny that she's supporting
considering they're really 50-50,
but better.
I think like,
and especially this season,
she was really 50-50.
Last season, there was more Debra than Ava,
and now they're equal, and it ain't right.
Janelle James, Abbott Elementary.
Kate McKinnon, SNL.
Sarah Niles, Ted Lasso.
Cheryl Lee Ralph, Abbott Elementary.
Juno Temple, Ted Lasso.
Hannah Waddingham, Ted Lasso.
Hannah Waddingham was great.
Yeah.
They all are great.
I don't have a winner in my my mind supporting actor in a comedy anthony carrigan barry brett goldstein
ted lasso tohib jimo ted lasso nick muhammad ted lasso tony shalhoub the marvelous mrs mazel
tyler james williams abbott elementary the worst character in marvelous mrs mabel is tony shalhoub
like he is the actual definition of full of dread.
Like, he's so miserable and so annoying
and, like, literally, like, not a good dad.
Also, when they put this list together,
they should say Sidney Sweeney, Cassie, and Euphoria.
Like, I don't have these actors' names, you know?
Okay, I'm sure that there is a list with that,
but the New York Post had no time for that.
Okay.
Henry Winkler Barry and Bowen Yang, SNL. know for him i know happy for him best drama show okay better
call saul i feel like i'm so fucking over that show even though i never watched it never watched
the first one it's just like breaking bad no oh it's just like that time has passed i know it's
like move on like euphoria yeah ozark sever. I've never watched that, but it sounds good.
Squid Game.
Stranger Things.
Succession.
22 nominations for Succession, by the way.
I heard 24.
Oh, wow.
They snuck two more in.
And Yellow Jackets.
Also, I've heard good things about that.
This is a very tough category.
Who would you give it to?
It's hard to say because I would only give it to the ones that I've seen.
The ones that I've watched, which is not fair.
I mean, because I don't watch Ozarkark but people say it's the best show of
all time so like also like where the fuck is yellowstone where the fuck where the fuck is
yellowstone because that's who should get it 100 because honestly not succession why because
succession is like good for how bad it is you know no like they they have all the makings of a good
show except everyone is dreadful yeah but
like each episode is like slower than the next it always feels like the rug is about to be pulled
out from under them yet they're still afloat it's so good like you know Kendall goes off the deep
end and exposes his whole family yet they're not exposed right right right there's like no real
consequences yeah maybe that's like a metaphor on the one percent you know perhaps but like it's
like nothing happens yet every episode they're like it's so tense and everything's about to happen
yeah except the last episode of the season was incredible because those little shits got what
they deserved 100 and tom is everything yes no that last episode like saved the whole show for me
because i couldn't keep watching the likes of kendall win. Best actor in a drama.
Jason Bateman, Ozark.
Brian Cox, Succession.
Lee Jung Jae, Squid Game.
Bob Odenkirk, Better Call Saul.
Adam Scott, Severance.
Jeremy Strong, Succession.
Happy for them all.
Best actress in a drama.
Jodie Comer, Killing Eve.
Laura Linney, Ozark.
Melanie Linsky, Yellow Jacket.
Sandra Oh, Killing Eve,
Reese Witherspoon, The Morning Show, Zendaya, Euphoria. Zendaya. Okay Yellowstone has to be in a different category because where's Beth Dutton? Where's Kevin Costner? No it's giving
snub. It's giving big fat fucking snub. Totally. I'm continuing to look maybe it's you know a musical because I don't see it anywhere
but it really was a great year for tv it really was and there's a lot isn't like a one show like
I always think of Queen's Gambit because that was like the last time well that's limited series and
by the way that is um there's a lot of them White Lotus got so many nominations no but I mean there
isn't like one show that I feel like is going to sweep every category.
But you might feel that way about the limited series
because those are buzzier. There's Dope Sick,
The Dropout, Inventing Anna,
Pam and Tommy, and White Lotus.
No, I don't think any of those
are going to sweep.
And White Lotus is coming back for season two, so how is it
a limited series?
Because it's like an all new
cast? I don't know.
Oh, actually,
that kind of does make sense.
But also,
some other people were nominated
for a limited series,
such as Sarah Paulson
for Impeachment,
Margaret Qualley for Maid.
Sarah Paulson in Impeachment
was incredible.
Like, you literally wanted
to murder that woman.
She was so pathetic.
And Margaret Qualley
was sensational in Maid.
Yeah. Having her, and she's engaged. Good time to be Margaret Qualley was sensational inmate yeah happy her and she's engaged good time to be Margaret Qualley totally so that's you know the gist of it happy for everyone um nice to see
people achieving their dreams and it's great I'm ready for my uh daytime Emmy for outstanding
performance in the greatest web show of all time yeah Yeah, I'm ready for my Webby.
I think it's time, actually, that the Emmys, like, embrace digital.
There should actually, like, not to make everything about me.
Be a podcast award.
Yeah.
It's such a big category.
Yeah.
There could be a whole show, the potties, you know, comedy, drama, true crime.
No, but then it's like, nobody wants a potty, you know?
Like, there should just be, like, one category in the Emmys that isn't,
it really should, like, in the same way same way that like The View and RuPaul. But it's not fair to compare
all the just one category for podcasts. But the biggest categories which would be like news,
comedy, like whatever uh what else is on there? And maybe like um what's like story you know like.
Yeah like fictional. Yeah. Yeah true crime like there should be like um what's like story you know like yeah like fictional yeah yeah true crime like
there should be like three or four because the same way like and it's obviously not at the real
Emmys like at the daytime Emmys the same way that like the view can win and RuPaul wins and
Nicole Byer got nominated for nailed it like the more abstract versions of television but I guess
like podcast is literally not television right so there needs to be the potties, but they need to be distinguished.
And so that you would want a potty.
And that you are a peagot, you know?
Yeah.
Or a pre-got.
Oh.
That's the penultimate.
I had something to say.
Excuse me.
Pre-got.
We need potties.
Razzie.
Razzie.
Emmys, Grammys, Oscar, Tony.
If you can get all of those, then you are an icon.
And not before.
I was reading about someone, and they were so close to an EGOT,
and we forgot to mention them.
And I think the only one he's missing as an Oscar is Ben Platt.
He's a Tony, a Grammy, and an Emmy.
Isn't that interesting?
That is interesting.
I don't know how he'll get an Oscar, because he's really into music now,
not so much acting, except for the politician.
Well, he could write a song for a movie.
He could be in a movie musical.
He'll do it at some point.
Yeah, I think he'll be an EGOT coming up.
Will he be a pre-GOT though?
Actually though, definitely.
Ed Dierven Hansen was eligible for a Razzie because it was terrible.
So he's actually a REGOT.
He just needs a podcast now.
Right.
And an Oscar.
Yeah, no.
Someone like work on the potties. Why not? love award shows yeah because like a lot of why don't
you do it for shit people actually consume right and a lot of people because more people listen to
certain podcasts than watch these tv shows it's true but also especially in the late night category
woof yeah that's true but also not to wake the schreiss brothers but woof he's like yeah no it's hard to talk
sometimes yeah terrible um and i don't even remember what i was wanting to say this is my
experience yeah wait hold on it's something what are you talking about and then i always lose my
train of thought people actually consume before that before that pre-got ben platt oh because
there are a couple podcast awards that are like put together by iHeartRadio. But iHeartRadio produces their own podcast and it's literally fraudulent.
No, it's not merit based.
100%.
Okay, are we ready to move on to some of our lighter fare for the day?
It's been a heavy day so far.
I know.
And I feel like we've been podcasting for...
We're heavy girls.
Two hours.
I know.
We are heavy girls.
Heavy, heavy. You Two hours. I know. We are heavy girls. Heavy, heavy.
You got so heavy, baby.
Do you think there's any two people on the planet who can like include more different random show tunes, songs, commercial jingles into their everyday vernacular conversations?
No.
And we're holding back because we know it's not everyone's favorite.
Favorite when we sing.
That has to be like some sort of talent, right?
I totally agree.
When you said you're not excellent at anything, that's wrong.
No, like grabbing musical references at the drop of a hat.
Right.
That's why we deserve a potty.
A hundred percent.
Our next story, Pete Davidson says he's definitely a family guy and wants to have a kid.
He said, quote, that's like my dream.
So Pete Davidson is on Kevin Hart's Heart to Heart series on Peacock,
and a new sneak peek has dropped in which he talks about his desire to become a father,
admitting that he's looking forward to eventually starting a new, quote, chapter of his life.
Quote, my favorite thing ever, which I have yet to achieve.
I want to have a kid.
That's like my dream. It's like super to achieve I want to have a kid that's like
my dream it's like super corny and then Hart said that's not super corny that's the best
goddamn thing you could do in your life this is such a precious conversation precious and Davidson
said it would be so fun dress up the little dude that's kind of what I'm just preparing for now
it's just trying to be as good as a dude develop and get better so when that happens it's just
easier I mean apparently this isn't the first time he's said this but obviously now we're all just trying to be as good as a dude, develop and get better. So when that happens, it's just easier.
I mean, apparently this isn't the first time he's said this,
but obviously now we're all looking at it through the context of Kim
because we've said many times as much as we ship so much,
like the age difference is a real thing.
And Kim already having four kids and Pete, you know,
being so young, not having kids of his own,
maybe it's something he wants.
And now we know that's something he wants.
Like it does make you think. And it's not just something he wants like it does make you think and it's not just something he wants it's
the thing and it seems like everything that he's doing and working towards is so that he can be the
best dad when the time comes and this isn't like a negotiable thing no and it's like not like oh I
could be a dad if I wanted to or maybe being a stepdad would fulfill me he's saying I want my
own kids and now you have to look at the lady in his life and kim wants more kids she said in
april when she was asked when the whole family was asked who's gonna have as many kids as chris like
that's six kids and kim has four i think they're gonna have kids together kim has frozen eggs
because she did use a surrogate for chicago and psalm and saint. Was she pregnant once or twice? She was pregnant twice.
Twice.
Yeah.
So if you read,
if you put it all together,
Kim and Pete will be having a family.
I kind of.
And you heard it here first.
You want to hear like a crazy take?
I do.
I love that for sure.
For sure.
But I kind of like wish Pete like already had a kid.
Do you know what I mean?
And like maybe like, I just think he should have a baby with Carly Equilino.
I can't explain it.
Okay.
But I just watched that Pete Davidson and friends thing and like she was on it
and like they're obviously really close and they used to date.
So they obviously have love for each other.
They've had sex before.
And I don't know.
I just feel like that's who he should have a kid with and then get back together with Kim.
I wonder if Kim would be open to it.
But like if Kim really wants more kids, if she wants more kids just as badly as he wants kids why the
hell not they love each other they're obviously committed to each other. I know just and as much
as I love them and I don't want to be a naysayer at all like the age difference just does give me
pause that's it. But what part of it because for most people it's like an age different really
becomes a difference becomes an issue
when someone wants kids and either the other person doesn't want kids or...
Already has.
Already has.
Or if, you know, she's of a certain age and she doesn't have her eggs frozen,
like that could pose an issue in actually getting pregnant.
But like everything is there.
No, I know.
I guess it just seems like too convenient, you know?
I'm sure they thought about these things before they all went public and said,
we want more kids and we love each each other how long have they been together now
eight months let's also talk about the trailer that dropped sorry i have no clue what time it
is but when was knott's berry farm october right because snl was when you were in bbis where which
was october okay so it was a little later than that. So say they started, they got serious in October, November.
That's 10th month.
Now we're in the 7th month.
Nine months they've been together.
Yeah.
Perhaps a kid is coming next month.
And let's also talk about the trailer for season two of The Kardashians That Dropped,
which made me excited that we're getting a season two so close to the end of season one.
I was a little annoyed that we're seeing Met Gala content,
and it's coming out in September.
So we're going to be watching May at the end of the year.
Like it's just feel slow.
But obviously everyone is quaking over the one scene where she's like, babe, do you want
to shower with me real quick?
And he like throws his cigarettes on the ground and walks away from Khloe and like runs into
the dressing room.
Really cute.
So cute.
I'm really excited for more.
Me too.
I'm just like impatient. I want really excited for more. Me too. I'm just like impatient.
I want my Kardashians now.
I really do want my Kardashians now.
No, I really do.
I want more.
I want them every week.
I want them never to be off.
Like I'm sure that would be really hard for them, but it would be good for me.
Yeah.
So that's all that matters.
Yeah.
Especially when the show, like you're going to make a premium show.
We're going to be addicted.
Yeah.
Sorry.
I just can't believe. I guess that's how people feel about the toast oh my god you know because people
always say like I'm so happy the girls are taking off but like I'm not okay right right so you're
basically saying we're the digital Kardashians is what you just said I think like anyone would
have said that just the way that like we feel about the Kardashians people feel about our show
isn't that so like nice and humbling? It is nice because we just like sit here
and like fart.
And talk
and get the shite
about our sleeping
and like they're our only audience
and they're sleeping.
How good could we be?
It's so offensive
and disrespectful.
But they're so gorgeous
when they're sleeping.
I'm a gorgeous sleeping man.
You love to come
to work with mama?
Oh, big stretch from my angel.
You love to come
to work with mama?
You look so good and delicious.
I want to eat you for breakfast.
Bruno's sleeping
on some holiday merch and he told me, it's your best work yet this is gorgeous merch
thank you mommy you said brew anytime you're welcome you're welcome fanny brass and strassen
um so pete wants kids and that's just not something i expected honestly yeah but i think he should have
them i think he should have them with, assuming that's what all interested parties want
and they love each other.
Yeah.
You know,
it makes me think of,
obviously,
Travis and Kourtney
from this season
trying to get pregnant
and then I was just thinking
how Kourtney didn't
freeze her eggs.
Yeah.
Which obviously makes sense
because she got pregnant
by accident
and then just kept
getting pregnant.
But I just feel like
they're so good about that.
You know,
Chloe was freezing her eggs
a couple seasons ago.
I just figured Kourtney would have some on ice.
Yeah, but she has three kids.
And she didn't need to.
I don't think she ever thought she would be at a place in her 40s
where she wanted to have kids with her husband.
She never even wanted to get married.
Wow.
Yeah.
Just goes to show you, man plans, God laughs.
Man plans, God laughs.
Man plan, God laughs.
And you know what it really goes to show you?
You'll never regret freezing your eggs.
And that we're all just kids.
At heart.
Yeah, that's true.
I'm glad you brought that up.
Are you ready for our fifth and final story?
I really, honestly, and truly am.
A little sports news.
A little SN?
SN.
Derek Jeter admits to the 2001 interview that led to a fallout with his friend A-Rod.
He said he's, quote, not a true friend.
Wait, who did this?
So, Derek Jeter.
Okay, like I literally think of them as the same person.
So you're like, A-Rod had a falling out with A-Rod?
Okay, here's the deets.
Derek Jeter has a new docuseries coming out about himself called The Captain,
in which he talks about like the end of his friendship with A-Rod,
who was also a shortstop in the industry.
For the Yankees. And at one point, they were close. A-Rod, who was also a shortstop in the industry. For the Yankees.
And at one point, they were close.
A-Rod, at the time, was playing for the Texas Rangers,
and Derek Jeter was playing for the Yankees.
Okay.
Now, they had a longtime friendship, and now he's detailing how it came to an end.
In The Captain, a new ESPN docuseries about Derek Jeter's Hall of Fame career,
the former shortstop says his friendship with A-Rod soured
after A-Rod was interviewed for an Esquire story in 2001. During the interview with Esquire the interviewer asked A-Rod whether he
thinks there was a rivalry between him and Derek Jeter outside of their friendship because they're
both like these amazing shortstops and shortstops I guess they played the same position. I would
have thought Derek Jeter was a pitcher but that's just me. We want a pitcher, not a belly itcher.
P-I-T-T-R, pitcher, pitcher, pitcher.
Honestly, I want a belly itcher.
Same.
I want a belly itcher.
Okay, wait.
What did he do?
Okay, so this is the quote from the 2001 Esquire interview that Derek Jeter is holding on to.
Obviously, Derek Jeter is the kind of man to hold a grudge.
Yeah, but you know what? 2001 Esquire interview that Derek Jeter is holding on to. Obviously Derek Jeter is the kind of man to hold a grudge. Yeah.
But you know what?
And I might have said that before,
uh,
before events unravel,
but now it just seems like A-Rod is the fucking worst.
Well,
no,
it does seem like it's funny when you think of them side by side,
because I don't really think of Derek Jeter much because he retired like a
hero.
He got married to the most gorgeous sports illustrated cover star,
Hannah.
And now he like lives a quiet life.
I think he made good investments.
He's very wealthy.
He's not being thirsty at all.
Whereas like A-Rod's post-baseball career
has been just like one disgrace after another.
Yeah.
So here's what A-Rod said in 2001.
No, there's not a rivalry at all.
Not even.
I mean rivalry.
Like ours is such a brotherhood
that there's definitely no rivalry there.
And it's weird because even with my brother,
we have a little rivalry.
But with Derek, I'm his biggest fan and I think it's vice versa. While A-Rod continued to compliment Derek Jeter during the interview, the interviewer
continued to press him on the subject. And A-Rod said he's reserved, quiet. Jeter's been blessed
with great talent around him, so he's never had to lead. He doesn't have to. He can just go and
play and have fun and hit second. I mean, you know, hitting second is totally different
than hitting third or fourth in a lineup
because you go into New York trying to stop Bernie Williams
and Paul O'Neill and everybody.
You never say, don't let Derek beat you.
That's never your concern.
Okay, that's like shady and mean.
Yeah, but it sounds like he started out trying to say only nice things
and he was continuing to be a pest.
The journalist was being a pest.
Right, but then he ultimately, you know.
Gave him what he wanted. Gave it, and I don't think he didn't feel that way, you know. It's not like the crazy meanest thing to say only nice things and he was continuing the journalist was being a pest right but then he ultimately you know gave him what he wanted gave it and I don't think he didn't
feel that way you know it's not like the crazy meanest thing to say and I think but to say he's
never had to lead and like his docu-series is called the captain oh right that I think was
like his whole thing he's a leader and by the way when you think of the Yankees you think of Derek
Jeter when I think of the Yankees I think of George Costanza okay but if you had to think of the Yankees, I think of George Costanza. Okay, but if you had to think of a player.
Let me actually think.
Probably Derek Jeter.
You know what it is?
I don't think of the Yankees.
Literally, ever.
I think of the Mets because Ben's friend Pete plays on the Mets.
When you think of the Mets, who do you think of?
Pete Alonso, King, VIP.
No, MVP.
Mike Piazza.
Put some respect on his name. When I think of the Mets, like pre, you know, knowing the star player and like being best friends with him and his wife.
Before that, when I think of the Mets, I think of, oh, when I think of the Yankees, I think of Tamara Judge.
Of course.
And her son.
Aaron.
Aaron.
Yeah.
No, you think of Derek Jeter.
I'm sure if I asked you that before this, like now it's in your head.
Anyways, that's the quote that upset Derek I hope they um I mean you don't have to be friends with
everyone forever but like this isn't like a real reason to like literally hold a grudge for 21
years yeah I guess it's been a long time but what I wanted to say is reading about Derek Jeter and
just like his personality especially now reading that interview from A-Rod reminds me of Mariah
Carey's book when she dated Derek Jeter you know know I never finished that book. It's so good but it was written very dense very dense
the author had a lot every every sentence like there's no wasted word right and there's a lot
in there so. What did she say about Derek Jeter? Just that she like she really loved him he was
such a great guy he was so sweet and they had a really great relationship she loved his family really nothing negative to say just
like wasn't a match yeah but that he kind of like was this like soft-spoken shy guy yeah and I like
love him and his wife like she's a great follow on Instagram can't recommend it enough love and
I don't know I if you had never said like said the name Derek Jeter he probably
wouldn't have popped into my mind for at least 15 years and so it's nice to be reminded of a New
York hero and now you could go like when you have dinner with Ben and you could be like oh my god I
hear about that Jeter docuseries crazy about the A-Rod tea totally maybe I'll actually watch it
Ben would love that yeah oh that's a nice thing even though like I love ESPN and their you know
thirst for cinema but I have watched like two of their documentaries and they were two of the most long and dreadful things like the OJ Simpson one which
I could never tire like the OJ Simpson story is one of the craziest stories in American history
the Kardashian involvement there's some Robert Shapiro like there's so many things oh my god I
couldn't keep my eyes open it was so long then I watched the other one that everyone's talking about
Last Dance thank you um and by watch I mean like I gave it 15
minutes and it was good but I was just like they're moving so slow no the only one I watch is the 30
for 30 about Nancy Kerrigan and Tonya Harding that's the only one you need to watch is a literal
like the most important piece of art made in the last 20 years so if they need to do all this other
crap just to once in a while make something like that yeah that's fine yeah no I actually don't really know a lot about Derek
Jeter like and now that I'm like thinking about him like hot like I'm into it yeah what does Derek
feel what does Derek want and like his name is Derek you know yeah he's a first elastee so I
never think about the fact that his first name is Derek life And he's also Jeter. Right. They call him Jeter and now
saying Jeter a lot. Jeter. Sounds weird. Yeah. Jeter, Jeter, Jeter, Jeter, Jeter, Jeter. It's
Life with Derek. We have so many episode title names for today but that. Let's talk about Life
with Derek for a second. About how literally that girl wanted to fuck her stepbrother so bad.
It was so fucking inappropriate and weird. that's what they should have called this docuseries 30 for 30 colon life with Derek and that's why ESPN will never be it right because
they're hung up on the captain they'll never be that girl no but here's what Derek said
just in case you're curious let's just wrap this up because here's what Derek said about
the quote as a friend I'm loyal I just looked at it as I wouldn't have done it and then it was the
media the constant hammer to the nail they just kept hammering it in it just became noise which frustrated me just constant noise you
can say whatever you want about me as a player that's fine but then it goes back to the trust
the loyalty this is how the guy feels he's not a true friend is how I felt because I wouldn't do
it to a friend yeah like even if you're being pressed like the fact that you can get to a point
where you'll say something nasty about someone who's your loyal friend is not something you want
to be friends with and I could see Derek seeing that and being like oh this is a friendship
I want to shy away from not holding a grudge for 20 years and waiting for A-Rod to apologize
when someone shows you who they are believe them it's like if a fellow podcaster was being
interviewed about like people and you know someone was like and how do you feel about
Claudia and they were like oh yeah she's great she's nice and they kept asking and then they
said something like really nasty and shady like and something they obviously like had to think
through like you would be so completely fucking done with them would give them a second thought and then if it was someone that
i'd spend a lot of time with privately and like was my friend yeah and then in 20 years if you
were asked about like why you guys fell out just be like they said that and i understood that we're
not friends right like i would never do that so i just wasn't interested in pursuing the friendship
any further right which is fine literally when people show you who they are believe them right
and he wasn't wrong about a rod at the end of the day No You know At the end of the day
Alright so I have a hot take
We've been podcasting
For so long
I know I can't do
Deer Toasters
Because I have to pee
So badly
No and like
We have another show
And I have to pump
Like I'm engorged
We have another show
Tomorrow
And I feel like
We had so much
To catch up on today
I was gonna say
The same thing
Cause you have to pump
Because I have to pump
And I just think
It's better to like
So what we should do
An hour and a half today
And then 40 minutes tomorrow
No
We've gotta spread it out
So we're gonna move Deer Toasters to tomorrow I just think it'll be to like, so what, we should do an hour and a half today and then 40 minutes tomorrow? No. We've got to spread it out.
So we're going to move Dear Toasters to tomorrow.
I just think it'll be better for everyone.
