Starting point is 00:00:00 Good morning, Millennials! Welcome back to the shows and happy Friday! It's a celebración! It's an extravaganza! It's the end of the week. Oh my goodness, oh my goodness. Hey Jax, how you doing? I'm doing good.
Starting point is 00:00:12 A hard-earned end of the week. It's been a sick week for our girl. I've seen you guys complaining in the comments and I just want to say, imagine how I feel. Imagine how tired she is of it. You're tired of me sniffling? Imagine how I feel sniffling. Have some compassion.
Starting point is 00:00:28 How are you feeling? Are you wearing my shirt? I'm wearing this outfit that you gave me when I was pregnant because I have so much cabbage in. You're cabbaging in this very moment? I'm cabbaging in this moment. And Zach bought me a fresh cabbage yesterday. That is the biggest cabbage at the patch.
Starting point is 00:00:44 So the leaves are huge and they literally go up to my neck. If I the biggest cabbage at the patch. So the leaves are huge and they literally go up to my neck. If I just open one button, look, cabbage. Oh my God. And you thought that the gorgeous Norma Kamali set that I gave you should smell like cabbage? That's how you receive the gifts that I give? I wanted to look amazing today.
Starting point is 00:01:02 And I said, oh, some of my most amazing outfits were gifted to me by Claudia. Not the black of my cardigan. Dark times. Dark times. No, and I needed something where you wouldn't see all this cabbage. But I didn't want to do like another sweatshirt. Oh, you know what it was, Turdy? Actually, I had already put my hair up.
Starting point is 00:01:20 And I had already put my eyebrow glue on. So I couldn't put something over my head. So I went for my button downs. And then I saw this outfit that I love so much and yes it is a little oversized because I'm like teeny tiny and I thought perfect. Okay noted. I love this outfit Latour Deleu. Me too that outfit's kind of like it really is a sisterhood of the traveling pants type of outfit it looks good on everyone whether it's a little small on you, whether it's a little big on you, like it could be snug, but it could also be oversized. Like it's kind of the most amazing outfit. And I think like each sister should wear it. It would fit every sister. Like that's what's magical about it. Fit every sister. The last time I wore it was at your birthday and I was
Starting point is 00:01:57 nine months pregnant, slayed the house down boots. Yep. Boots. Today, five and a half months out, slaying the house down boots cabbage. Slaying the house down boots cabbage slaying the house down boots cabbage write it down for title that's just one of many options we will have today even though like let's let's give some inside baseball tea to like the girl he's listening today i'm very particular about titles because it's like so slay the house down boots cabbage is like a funny thing that we've said, but if you are toast agnostic and you're scrolling through the charts, it's not something that's going to make you want to listen.
Starting point is 00:02:31 Not only that, it's too long. Like I have a character limit on the title. This doesn't work for me. I push her to her limits. The way it shows up on our YouTube cover photo, the way it shows up on our social cards, even the way it shows up in the charts, if it's this long sentence,
Starting point is 00:02:43 people can't read the whole sentence. I love a short, quick, nasty quick nasty title like especially one that like when Taylor Swift does something it's like so great for our business like Taylor on the field earlier in this week that's our highest listened to episode not necessarily because the title because I think a lot of people wanted to know what we were going to say about Taylor but they know for sure that we're going to be talking about it and then actually maybe some people who are casually scrolling the charts they see this episode that's like in the top 1% and they're like, oh, the top 1% talking about Taylor on the field.
Starting point is 00:03:09 Let me listen. That actually would get new listeners. No, they see, oh, the 1%ers are talking about Taylor Swift. Right. And how many other podcasts in like the top 20 overall podcast episodes of the day have Taylor in the title that day? Like really none. It's all about, you know, war in the title that day like really not it's all about you know more in the
Starting point is 00:03:25 election also once again another Friday has rolled around where I have an overwhelming amount of options for weenie of the week and I might have one queenie I was thinking about it as I was doing my makeup this morning and then I forgot about it but it will come to me I had I had some early starters but it's just like it's hard it's hard to like get so in the weeds you know because then like I'm like is this person deserving of weenie and then I zoom out and I'm like sin war sin war is my weenie yeah no you're you need to like kind of reset your level I have my weenie. Oh, the weenie has spoken. I can't wait. The weenie has emerged. Oh. The weenie has made him or her or themselves known. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:04:12 Is it? Okay. You know what? I guess I'll just have to wait and see. They've made they themselves known. They. It's a group of people or a non-binary person? You'll have to stay tuned until the end of the show to find out.
Starting point is 00:04:23 Yikes. So we, of course, have a great show for you guys today. I was inspired by my absolutely gorgeous drop dead diva bitch ass of a sister to get a spray tan today, which I'm going to do later today, just to kind of like look gorgeous for the weekend. Love that for you. You've just inspired me to book my next spray tan. You know, one thing about 2024, like let's stay on top of our beauty treatment so we stop looking like rats like we're on camera every day and like the fact that for years I wasn't consistently getting spray tans consistently getting lash lips consistently taking care of myself consistently exfoliating like we are going to be beautiful this year that's the goal bitch I love that for us and
Starting point is 00:05:00 like I've said once I'm done weaning it's over for you bitches so you better enjoy these last few weeks you better enjoy them by the way all you bitches who've been like laying dormant while Jackie's kind of been like in her nesting hibernating you know big breasted cabbage years like watch the fuck out bitch wake up wake up she's coming for you enjoy these last few weeks your time is winding down oh yeah just wait till she starts shooting herself up with Ozempic. It's really over for you, bitches. Yeah. I mean, I decided you're not going to do that.
Starting point is 00:05:30 I've decided that's just not in the cards for me right now. I'll let you guys know if that changes for any reason, but I really don't know why it would. Listen, your decision is your decision. And it pains me to make that decision because I'm so eager to see what it's like, to experience the juice and the magic. By the way, the cool thing about it is that it lasts one week. So I could shoot you up. I guess I could do it one week and just...
Starting point is 00:05:56 By the way, I'm not recommending this. I'm not a doctor. I'm just saying I could bring someone and shoot you up. And we could just see how I feel. I just know I'm going to be addicted. No, I know, by the way. It's literally literally heroin in a needle it's like my version of heroin no it's my version of heroin too I don't think I would like traditional heroin but I think every everybody likes heroin is that everyone does that was a crazy part of Mike Sorrentino's book that I
Starting point is 00:06:19 can't stop talking about it because it was so good at the very height of his addiction he had gotten sober like many times but really fake sober just so he could get back to work. At the very height of his addiction, he had like literally spent every, he was making millions. He had not a dollar to his name. He had sold all of his cars, everything to buy drugs. And his girlfriend and his parents
Starting point is 00:06:38 like knew he was a drug addict. So they were keeping an eye on him. His friend came, picked him up. He ran in the car. They drove to Newark. And this guy, his friend was like, I know where we can score some cheap drugs. They pick it up. They go to the guy's house. Mike opens like the tinfoil thing. And he's like, oh my God, it's heroin. And he had never done heroin before. And he like said he was not going to do it.
Starting point is 00:06:56 And I forget what actually happened. I think he did it. Or like Lauren, his now wife called him at the second he was about like thinking about doing it it was like this crazy moment in the book and yeah he was like he was like I was a crazy addict but my line was heroin like I was never gonna do heroin but then here he was faced with the only option of heroin yeah damn and I can't talk about heroin without talking about that episode of you okay yeah it's just I feel like that cough proves to people that I'm sick. Like, have respect. You want us just to cut it out? The time savings is about eight minutes.
Starting point is 00:07:28 No, no, no, no, no, no. And I don't have a chronic cough right now. It was just a clearing of the throat because I'm on the mend. I'm hoping that by Monday I will have watched the Barbie movie and I'll be able to discuss it without sounding nasally. So as I was saying, I really can't talk about the drug heroin without thinking about that episode. Well, that's segment. Dr. Phil did on those three sisters who were addicted to heroin and who lived
Starting point is 00:07:48 in that sort of like crack den and how I spoke about it on the toast no actually I think it was the breath like many many years ago but it turned out one of them was a breather and she like dm'd me and she said she thought it was hilarious I'm like oh okay classic the toast is my heroin they had tapped out the veins in their arms and they started shooting up in between their toes. Claudia, stop. Claudia, just stop it. No, honestly, like I feel like. No, we're moving.
Starting point is 00:08:10 Fricka, fricka. We're switching gears. Okay, here's what's something that's sad that happened to me this morning. I saw on Instagram this like absolutely gorgeous picture of Arielle Charnas on her Instagram story. It's just looking so sick. And I was like, what if I just swiped up? And I really wanted this coat. She had like the cutest outfit on.
Starting point is 00:08:28 Let me go see. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's very, I think it's from yesterday because it was very early in her stories. It's a white coat. Okay. She has like a Chanel bag,
Starting point is 00:08:35 a white coat, leggings. Like it's just like a cool girl, like Upper East Side mom. And I'm like, I think I need to look like that. Let me know when you see it. So why didn't you just hit the copy paste? $1,500 jacket. Like girl on Ariel Charnas let me see what it's made of your mom and she did do a look for less
Starting point is 00:08:51 and I love how how sickening okay I see the coat where's the swipe up oh she's posted all these throwbacks oh no by the way you're you're too far gone it's prior it's over okay so let me go back to the coat and analyze and tap the link tap the link it too far gone it's prior it's over okay so let me go back to the coat and analyze and tap the link tap the link it's right it's not linked oh it must have expired it was from yesterday $1,500 and then my queen she was like oh let me do a look for less oh I see I see it on the grid so now she said oh here I'll link a jacket for less for you broke bitches I'm like okay great I'll do the only her dupe is from revolve like that's not the dupe that's the goal you know yeah but what about that one for you that's really like
Starting point is 00:09:31 where you're where you like to shop I don't know compared to like the one that she posted I just felt like it would be cheap like even though it was a $300 coat like it definitely wasn't cheap like I don't know it didn't feel right I wanted the one well the thing is I do really like the style of coat so I do want to persuade you to get it. All right, calm down. I'm not getting it. And I just feel like you need it. I feel like I need it too, even though I don't really.
Starting point is 00:09:53 Otherwise, how would you be warm if you didn't have this coat? Well, I do have my vest that I'm currently wearing that was $4 from Amazon. So I feel good about that. I also am wearing my 1989 Taylor's merch that I ordered in October that took four months to come that arrived literally yesterday. So you're feeling warm enough? I'm feeling warm enough
Starting point is 00:10:10 and I just want to thank Taylor because honestly like her having a four month lead time like makes me feel so good about our toast merch which if you've ordered like you should be getting in like literally a week or two which is so crazy. In a fraction of the Taylor time. Right so thanks Taylor.
Starting point is 00:10:24 We love you for that yeah I just think you should get that coat I really like it and I think it would just elevate it would it wouldn't just be about the coat it would kind of change who you are as a person sorry okay I could wear with everything day or night and everyone say oh my god there's Claudia just like kind of their breath would be taken away by you and in that coat oh no you're like kind of convincing me also a coat can change a person wait what if you in that coat. Oh, no. You're, like, kind of convincing me. Also, I think maybe you... A coat can change a person. Wait.
Starting point is 00:10:46 What if you get the coat for me? No. What if we find a reason why you should treat yourself? No. Okay. I need to find, like, an... I know... No, no.
Starting point is 00:10:55 I could... That's easy. I need a coupon code. I should have done Honey. Like, I should have... But, like, the brand was Wardrobe. Like, they don't do coupon codes, you know? Like, they're not like The brand was wardrobe Like they don't do Coupon codes you know Like they're not like us
Starting point is 00:11:07 No you just have to What if Ariel Tardis Is just like done with the coat And she could give it to me Even though she's probably Like a size double zero Just get the coat I don't know
Starting point is 00:11:16 $1,500 is a lot of money On a coat No but why don't you Order the coat If it does If you put it on And it doesn't change Who you are
Starting point is 00:11:22 Then return it And if it does Then you're meant to have it. And you'll wear it so many times it'll justify the price. Coats are expensive like when they're made of things that will keep you warm. When they're made of coat. When they're made of real coat that's like a real coat. Like one thing about me, like I for no reason like will defend Ariel Charnas to the death.
Starting point is 00:11:42 Like she's just a person I follow on the internet who I feel fiercely protective over there's a few people like that like I'm always going to bat for them even though I literally don't even know them
Starting point is 00:11:50 and would they do the same for you no actually I don't know Ariel Charnas' character but I imagine she would and it's not tit for tat you don't do it
Starting point is 00:11:57 to get it in return you do it because it's the right thing to do like Brittany Mahomes won't be defending me anytime soon but I'll keep defending her no no exactly.
Starting point is 00:12:05 Like I do it because my job is to comment on the culture and I'm going to speak from the heart. Yeah, yeah. And you're not going to like add to their burden, to their pile. They have enough people coming at them. No, it's so true. And just having been someone who has been piled on on the internet a couple of times, like I know what that's like.
Starting point is 00:12:22 And I'm literally like never going to be a part of it, you know? Except if it's Justin Timberlake oh I'm sorry this conversation is really only talking about girls like I feel differently about girls and boys like boys can handle it for real yeah also celebrities versus influencers is different as we've stated so many times by the way Justin Timberlake and Ariel Charnas I couldn't be more different yeah I'm glad that we've established that because I think people were confused I did however buy the socks from her LTK swipe up so you got a piece of the magic I got a piece of the magic and I spent $30 on socks like she's insane I'm sure your feet will be so warm we live for it i love enabling people to buy nice things it's really one of my passions in life and i've also recently like my itch has been reactivated yeah like you're
Starting point is 00:13:11 feeling like you want to invest in some feeling like shopping feeling like shopping till i'm dropping because i'm coming out of hibernation yeah and i got shopping together oh my god when i come down and i can drive you. And I got like one thing recently. I'll drive. And it just, no, I'll drive. Oh, you know what? I realized I was playing around with my Tesla yesterday. I realized, you know how you don't like Tesla because it's like a golf cart in terms of stopping and starting. It's not traditional the way we were all taught to drive, which is foot on the brake at all times. You can change the settings so that it will drive like a car that you're used to. So if you ever want to drive it you could drive it that way oh we should definitely do that and you
Starting point is 00:13:48 should probably do that too just so you can you're like a new driver you should know how to drive one type of car no I drove Zach's car the other day it wasn't pretty but we made it home yeah I just honestly like whenever you talk about driving like I get the vibe like you don't want to succeed like for real what is it no I do want to see I want more than anything for this not to be like this big impediment in my life but I just I'm too cautious of a person you know and I can't just throw caution to the wind on this it's too important no I know that so like it would be more cautious of you to set up your Tesla like all the other cars on the planet.
Starting point is 00:14:29 Why? I only need to really know how to master my own car and I find it easier to drive this way. I'm more comfortable. I don't want to keep my foot on the brake at all times. I could just sit out of light and my both feet are willy nilly. How crazy. What are you going to do? A dance? An Irish jig? Younilly. How crazy. What, are you going to do a dance?
Starting point is 00:14:45 Never know. An Irish jig? You never know. How are the stories today? I feel better than yesterday. Oh, okay. And I didn't even think yesterday was so bad. Yeah, no. Do you have any updates?
Starting point is 00:14:55 They came together in a nice manner. Any follow-up stories on Tarek's armed hike? No. T-A-H? Fuck! What else do you want to know? Has Christina spoken out? Like anything?
Starting point is 00:15:07 Oh, I don't know if I would click if Christina spoke out. Like I don't think I would notice that. It wouldn't pop off the page to me because she's always like in People Magazine like sharing her favorite bracelet, you know? Yeah, I know. Like she's always in People Magazine sharing her favorite bracelet. so I don't know if
Starting point is 00:15:27 I would notice I kind of like scroll past the headlines and by the way what's so funny there was there was a storyline in Selling Sunset like season one or two that Christine Quinn said like Heather was so upset that Christine Quinn said how um Heather is always in people magazine like sharing her favorite muffin recipe targum was married the same woman yeah twice yeah yeah he did yeah so i really like heather and targ though so i'm not gonna say anything you're not gonna be a hater no i really like heather and if A equals B and B equals C and she loves Tark and I love Heather, then I love Tark. I love using the theorem of logic.
Starting point is 00:16:10 A equals B, B equals C. No, what is that? The chain? What's that theory called? Chain theory. Like A equals B and B equals C, then A equals C. It's never not right. No, it's so factual.
Starting point is 00:16:21 And don't even start like when we throw D in there and then A equals D. No, that's too much. It's a hair too far. Also, let me tell you about a new thing I'm experiencing that's actually ruining my life. I woke up at three in the morning and I went back to bed at six. And like I just woke up like an animal like at my usual time, which is about 8, 8.30. I actually didn't get out of bed till nine. I really couldn't.
Starting point is 00:16:42 I don't know what the fuck is up with that. And it's really pissing me off and it has to be done it has to be stopped well at least when you come here you can make yourself useful at those hours oh my god give a little bottle but I would love that but like no you know no I think you would like it
Starting point is 00:16:57 and then Ben wakes up and he's like are you awake and I'm like yeah because I was I scrolled on my phone I was literally laying there for like 30 minutes I'm like I have to do something I'm so bored and so Ben was like are you on your phone I'm like yeah he I was I scrolled on my phone I was literally laying there for like 30 minutes I'm like I have to do something I'm so bored and so Ben was like are you on your phone I'm like yeah he's like well that's why he starts yelling at me he's like that's why you can't sleep I'm like do you think I want to be here like do you think I want to be doing this right now okay not to be the Ben's advocate but it's true like you turning on your phone tells your brain hey it's a wait time you'd be better off just turning on your Kindle please. Wow. Yeah. Oh the light from your phone signals
Starting point is 00:17:28 to your brain that it's time to be awake. So you're actually accomplishing like the exact opposite thing of what you're setting out to do. Oh so we have gotten to a place in this show where you took my husband's side. Noted. Yeah it's dark times. Noted. And I will be calling your husband later. I think actually that Ben took my side because that would have been my argument. Tell Zach he will be hearing from my people. You're going to take his side? I'm going to set up a call with Zach.
Starting point is 00:17:55 Ask him what's going on in your marriage and how I can help make it worse. What would he want you to take his side about? I feel like you guys disagree on like the dumbest most random stuff like yeah like I can't even I can't even remember and whenever I'm at your house you know I ride for you yeah now it's usually because you're right but I still like even if you weren't right I wouldn't feel right about not taking your side maybe I would just like walk away and we love when we're like having a disagreement to like opening it up to the jury which is really the worst thing you can do for a marriage or just any sort of relationship.
Starting point is 00:18:27 Yet, you know, nevertheless, we persist. And I always ride for you. So the fact that not only you would take my husband's side, but you do it publicly on this show here, noted. That's how much I care about turdy sleep. I'm not going to tell you what you want to hear. Noted. I think after this, I'm going to listen to good guys.
Starting point is 00:18:52 Noted. noted I think after this I'm gonna listen to good guys noted and I'm gonna like and subscribe you know what I think I'm gonna do I think I'm gonna go listen to Reese's book club podcast and like and subscribe and maybe share it on my Instagram to my millions of devoted followers maybe that's what I'll do whoa she got me there yeah maybe i'll start my own wow hit me where it hurts yeah but and you would do that to the redheads like it's not just about me we're a collective yeah no and i would i would actually just it would be a spite podcast but the curb comes back on sunday exciting that is very exciting they did like a big premiere for it larry was on the today show larry's looking good i didn't see it oh why do i get the vibe you like hate larry like what is no i don't you're just like giving like i hate larry energy what's wrong i am but i love curb no it's the best show on tv and actually so i just feel like he's a little no offense demi lovato being like this is the last season of Curb.
Starting point is 00:19:45 Oh, stop it. I'm back. By the way, thank God for that. No, I'm glad for it. But like, stop saying that. I think this is like the final season of Curb until he comes back. No, they say, he always says it's the final season. And then that was like four seasons ago.
Starting point is 00:19:57 However, I think he just like, he, it's what's more relatable than that. Like working really hard on something and being like, okay, never again. And then a month later being like, well, what if I just did another season I it's like Tom Brady he he they had a big premiere for it and actually that guy so funny remember that guy who worked at um I think he went to Colgate the journalist from E! News who like got fired yeah he got fired for like a shady reason now he's like the face of variety. I feel like nobody talks about that. Oh, interesting. What's his name? Ken Baker? He went to Colgate, right?
Starting point is 00:20:27 Yeah, he did. So- Not Baker. Who is this? Ken Baker. Yeah, he went to Colgate. He asked Larry, what is your favorite,
Starting point is 00:20:37 like what do you think is the best episode of Curb of All Time? And Larry said, and it couldn't be more appropriate, Palestinian chicken. Yeah. That is the best episode
Starting point is 00:20:44 of TV like ever. It's just like a crazy episode of tv it is but that's not my favorite episode i couldn't tell you what my favorite episode is but there's one episode with the girl excuse me there's one episode oh my god yeah there's one we both just started talking at the same time from 22 jump street She's also in other stuff. Jillian, what's her last name? Jillian! That's what I was about to say! That's Ben's favorite episode where she wears a crop top
Starting point is 00:21:12 and Larry holds onto her belly. That's Ben's favorite episode. That's just like one that really sticks out to me. I remember after I saw it, I called you and I was like, you have to watch this episode. It is Ben's favorite episode. I'm so glad that, you know, our crossed paths, we would have ended up at the same place anyway. It's not about the journey.
Starting point is 00:21:32 It's about the destination. Yeah, it's about the destination and not interrupting people as frequently as you can. I just think it's so fucking important to remember. We're literally on a delay here. We both started talking at the same time. It may have felt like I was interrupting you, but we started at the same time. Gaslight.
Starting point is 00:21:48 Okay. Like low key. Why am I lying? Like, no, I feel like I interrupted you. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:51 Yeah. Also actually wanted to come clean about a lie I told earlier on the show. I'm burning yourself turdy. I shared last, maybe it was earlier in this week or maybe last week like that. I hit a new milestone in my fitness journey that I ran four minutes straight. Like it was three. I don't know why I lied.
Starting point is 00:22:07 Like I was just straight up making stuff up. It was three periods? Yeah. No extra seconds? Like I'm sure maybe it was like three, two or something, but it wasn't four minutes. Okay. You're only lying to yourself really.
Starting point is 00:22:21 I'm okay with that. Yeah. And maybe like if you told that lie it inspires you to actually get to that four minute and it's motivational so yesterday I was like okay if I just hit the four minute then I wouldn't have been a liar I literally couldn't I was dying cramping you'll get there yeah so sorry about that I'm coming clean I think we should get into the stories because we've got a lot to do today and we're being like a little radical 25 minutes like what it's 25 minutes we're at 23 30 not me making up numbers again jeez Louise without further ado here are the

Starting point is 00:26:20 Some Wendy Williams news as a new trailer for her documentary has dropped. Wendy Williams is finally telling her side of the story in a trailer for Lifetime's documentary called Where is Wendy Williams? The iconic TV host openly abuses alcohol and breaks down crying as she details the financial strain she's experienced from being placed under a guardianship. She says, I have no money.
Starting point is 00:26:43 The documentary features her son, Kevin Hunter Jr., her sister Wanda, and more family members as they fight to help her get well physically, but also free her from the financial prison in which she finds herself. Her sister says, we all make choices in life. We all go through our challenges. She's still a person.
Starting point is 00:26:58 Her son also claims that her court-appointed guardian hasn't done a good job of protecting Wendy, and Wanda echoes that the system is broken Wanda says we are her family and you tell me I'm not capable of taking care of my sister what would you do what should I do I feel like everyone in the world has been wondering like where in the world is Wendy Williams and now we know and it's like we're some we could have thought I really thought she was just like taking time privately to deal with her health issues also she was she was on TV every day for many, many years. Maybe she just wants to like, I don't know, be alone. But the reality is much worse. And I'm glad she's making that lifetime money
Starting point is 00:27:35 because like she sold this documentary. This is a project. This is income. Yes. But the guardianship is kind of confusing. It's like, who is the guardian? And it seems like it's her former or current financial advisor at like Wells Fargo. And her money is like there. Oh, I thought she had no money. No, I think she has no money because she doesn't have access to it. I was very confused.
Starting point is 00:27:56 I was trying to like read more about and like the Wells Fargo guardian like complains that she has to have like armed security because of like the Wendy fans, you know, like she's kind of like the villain in this story the wendy fans like are extremely zealous like it's a real community i just i don't understand what's happening here and how like wendy or her family how they have a guardian placed on them who is in charge of their money and she doesn't have like access to it. No, I also don't understand how. And even this lifetime money,
Starting point is 00:28:26 like does it go into that pot? Is it more for the guardian? I also don't understand how things went so bad so quickly with Wendy Williams. I feel like she was on TV consistently for so long. And then she had some like personal issues with her husband and then her health and then boom, she's fired. Like I feel like it all happened so quickly.
Starting point is 00:28:50 Yeah. Also her physical health isn't great in the documentary she's like in a wheelchair and she's just struggling so it's all very compounded and I guess the documentary will get to like the roots of each of these issues but it's been a very hard few years for her no and I highly recommend the Lifetime movie that she produced about her life Wendy Williams is a hustler I feel like in like this day and age she's like the butt of jokes but like people don't realize like how major it was that she got her own daytime show she like started in radio she hustled so hard she was like all about gossiping freely on radio like not giving a fuck she started like the R&b space she made a lot of enemies and it's she kind of has like an amazing story now the lifetime movie was like hella dramatized and like low-key really stupid but i loved every minute of it
Starting point is 00:29:32 and i feel like we need a serious wendy biopic like she has a real story for real like she's been through a lot of stuff so i have a lot of sympathy and i love wendy like i really do yeah yeah i and she's responsible for so many iconic, like, viral moments. I would ask people to respect my privacy, but I don't do it with those hot topics. That's the best video. She's such a queen. Like, remember when she literally fainted on air? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:58 She's been through a lot. She's been through a lot. So I don't even know what, like, peace looks like for her at this point. You know, is it a return to TV? Because that's that's like what it is and who she is yeah then on the other hand it's like maybe she needs a break totally unrelated but do we have it as a story today that my lord and savior Darius Rucker was arrested next up I'm devastado about this next story Hootie and the blowfish front man Darius Rucker has been arrested for minor drug offense in tennessee darius rucker was arrested on thursday in williamson county tennessee where he lives page six can confirm the hootie and the blowfish front man was taken
Starting point is 00:30:34 into custody and booked in three count three misdemeanor charges including two counts of simple possession slash casual exchange of a controlled substance and one count of a violation of the state's vehicle registration law police accused rucker of driving with an expired registration tag according to tmz he was released is that arrest worthy which i feel like everybody's registration is literally expired well in conjunction with these other yeah i don't know i feel like somebody has it out for darius he sounds like such minor offenses like I'm really upset like I feel like Darius is a good guy I think it's a conspiracy against Darius I do like I actually do it's a conspirious rucker conspirious rucker well okay but they I looked it up casual exchange of a controlled substance can mean like passing a joint to
Starting point is 00:31:19 someone totally that's what it sounds like okay let's break them down casually exchange this controlled substance three misdemeanors two counts of simple possession simple could be a joint in the pocket right no and I feel like simple joints in the pocket for two counts it's literally and I feel like simple means marijuana if it was anything other than that whether like prescription pills or cocaine like it would have been not simple it would have been complicated oh no I feel like prescription pills could be simple this is just like a feel my feeling so I could be totally wrong I feel like prescription pills could be simple but that wasn't even what I was thinking prescription pills is like a higher level and I feel like cocaine could be simple no there's nothing simple about
Starting point is 00:31:58 cocaine the devil's drug I know but I just feel like I feel like it could be simple possession if it's just like a little baggie. No no I feel like they take cocaine like really seriously. And then casual exchange of a controlled substance like passing the baggie. I just feel like if I know anything about Hootie it's that he's much more of a pot man. Like I couldn't
Starting point is 00:32:18 see Hootie doing blow. Like railing lines. I agree. Let's look at the mugshot. And it's unflattering. It is not a good mugshot I feel like again this is a conspiracy against Hootie like that angle everything lighting it's so bad like I feel like you can do a few things like I feel like they need to wipe the lens you know yeah like on the back of the camera it's a bad photo it's not a good look for Hootie the thing about like country fans is they don't give a fuck like I don't think this will affect Hootie. The thing about like country fans is they don't give a fuck. Like I don't think this will affect Hootie whatsoever. No but up until
Starting point is 00:32:45 now I feel like he does have a kind of sterling reputation but I did see a headline this morning. I'm going to pull it up. Like his ex-girlfriend is out here like talking about how this is karma for Hootie. Ugh. So like I don't like when people you know when they kick someone
Starting point is 00:33:02 when they're down. Yeah. And I was of course worried when I saw this headline that he was obviously arrested for a DUI because that to me oh that's unforgivable it's unforgivable line crossing and I was worried because I was getting you know Sam Hunt flashbacks however so his ex was just a little pot his ex is a comedian and she posted on x saying yes I've. All I can say is karma heart. Ooh, what's her name? And then her name is Kate Quigley. And then she also posted a selfie of her lounging in a blue bikini
Starting point is 00:33:34 while sticking her tongue out. And she said, mood when you hear your D-bag X got arrested. I stand with Darius. He's a national treasure. I'm sorry. I only want to be with you. Like, I only want to be with Darius. He's a national treasure. I'm sorry. I only want to be with you. Like, I only want to be with Darius.
Starting point is 00:33:49 A-E-I-O-U. Yeah. I stand with Darius. Darius is one of those people, like, it would take a lot for me to stop standing, you know? Yeah, and as we've, like, proven, these are misdemeanor simple charges. Could have been kind of.
Starting point is 00:34:07 Conspiracy. Conspirous. It's conspiratorial. Okay. It's giving conspiratorial energy. Yeah. But I do think just because he has such a pristine reputation, like. It's not great.
Starting point is 00:34:23 I think he'll survive it. Oh, big time. I think people will forget soon like remind set a calendar alert for like in a year and see if we remember no and like low-key we shouldn't even made it a story because we're contributing because like literally no one's talking about this because that's how much everyone just loves Hootie like we're looking past it yeah but it's a Friday and there like wasn't much else so like don't get arrested on a Thursday guys try for Sunday oh my god it's so important that if you're gonna get arrested that it be like towards the end of the week yeah on the weekend buried love thursday stories were sparse
Starting point is 00:34:55 today sorry darius but at the end of the day it just depends on the story like erica jayden very smartly dropping her divorce news during like one of the most heated elections of our time we still cared like i'm sorry it was there was no undoing that of course i actually i think she intentionally dropped it on election day to kind of bury it but yeah because there was no other news because everyone was talking about the election it was kind of the only news if you didn't want to talk about the election which is us which is so true by the way like kind of backfired I can't believe there's like another election seriously I hate election season don't like I can't do you hate all election seasons like all every year or just the president just
Starting point is 00:35:37 the president one because I feel like there's not a lot of like hype for like midterms and stuff and like low-key every time I vote in like, like a little like mayoral or whatever, I just feel like such a small town girl. Like I really do love it. And it's like, it's just, it gives harmonious energy. It does. People become the worst versions of themselves. Everyone I'm talking about during the election,
Starting point is 00:35:56 the presidential election season, like do not talk to me. Like I really can't. Yeah, but make sure you pack a snack. And if it's raining, maybe an umbrella. We absolutely have to repost that clip during election season. The way influencers acted last. Was it presidential?
Starting point is 00:36:13 No, that wasn't four years ago. No, that was present. Yeah. I was sitting in this chair four years ago. Four years. No, because it was a remote clip. 2020, we were in that studio. It wasn't a clip.
Starting point is 00:36:24 We didn't clip it. It's just a clip. Yes, we did. No, it's a clip. It's a clip. I swear to God, it's in that studio. It wasn't a clip. We didn't clip it. It's just a clip. Yes, we did. No, it's a clip. It's a clip. I swear to God, it's a clip moment. And it's remote. And it must have just been a regular election where people, influencers, like we're creating
Starting point is 00:36:34 graphics, like teaching people how to vote. Like bring a snack, grab an elderly neighbor. Like we know. Yeah. No, if it's raining, like wear your rain boots and don't forget your windshield wipers to turn them on. Pack a snack. I can't. Yeah. No, if it's raining, like wear your rain boots and don't forget your windshield wipers to turn them on. Pack a snack. I can't.
Starting point is 00:36:48 Yeah. Or like go to like, you know, how to find your polling place. As if like it's not constantly, every time you open up Facebook, Instagram, it's like pop up how to vote. It's the same every year. Oh, that too. That too.
Starting point is 00:37:03 I've only been voting at the same like school for a hundred years that too but i guess if you're a new voter let's give them the benefit yeah fair fair if you're a new voter like ask your parents no it's like where do your parents vote right it's really not hard um also if you're a new voter low-key like i assume you're maybe in college like you can vote through your college you can yeah actually low-key in when i was're maybe in college like you can vote through your college. You can? Yeah actually low-key in when I was the first time I ever voted I was in college and like they did it for you in your dorm like it was kind of like absentee energy because you're obviously you weren't home and it was also the year of Hurricane Sandy and I got a letter in the mail like six months after the election that my ballot was never cast because of Sandy.
Starting point is 00:37:45 Interesting. Conspirious. I forget I don't think it was never cast because of Sandy. Interesting. Conspirious. I don't think it was like an important election year. I don't remember what year it was. Sandy was 2013. 2012. I don't know. All's that to say, my vote didn't cast.
Starting point is 00:37:58 2012. So, oh, no, that would have been a presidential election. Law. I want to say it was 2013, actually actually when I think about my college years. When I think about where I was during Sandy it was 2012. You know what? Sandy was so crazy. A simple Google search.
Starting point is 00:38:17 Oh I'm sorry I wasn't thinking about hold on I think I was thinking about Hurricane Eileen. No Sandy was like really major. Hurricane Sandy. Oh no, 2012. I lived through Hurricane Sandy. Like that's kind of like a fun fact about me. I was in New York. It was so crazy.
Starting point is 00:38:33 Yeah. I wasn't really affected by it. It was actually so crazy how like in parts of the city, like people's cars were underwater. Like downtown because the city is kind of on an incline. And so. 10 blocks up, like my lights flickered once. That was the most like craziest thing that happened.
Starting point is 00:38:47 So I didn't really like live through Sandy. Not to make everything about me. But you'll try. So I'm sending well wishes to Darius. And just know like your OG fans. Like your true fans. We ride for you. And we know this is not a reflection of who you are.
Starting point is 00:39:00 And we know that there's a conspiracy against you. Are you ready for our next story? A little more music news. Because Ariana Grande grande is tearing up as she previews vulnerable songs from her upcoming album eternal sunshine so ari posted to instagram a video of her with like i guess some um what's the thing label big wigs of her members of her team yeah i was getting like this is for the label of her sampling her new album like talking about the process of recording it and when she started and what the inspiration was but so she has a new album coming out in march she started recording right after the strike so
Starting point is 00:39:36 this is like you know spongebob era songs oh wow spongebob era songs because spongebob broke in the summer this i think she started recording this in like september when does the album come out march i want to say like i do think she's a universal music group client i do think releasing an album while umg and tiktok like haven't worked things out like will severely impact streams like it's actually like a really big deal but they're not going to work things out no I know and by the way like all people have to still release music I got notified yesterday like all my TikToks with the music is no longer have been removed they're like silent they're like you want to switch it up to like some public domain song I'm like no I'm okay but they're not going
Starting point is 00:40:25 to reach an agreement so there's never a good time to release the app so it is what it is no and Universal Music Group is quite literally everyone except for me so stream toast and 100% by Claudia this could be a good opportunity for you time to support indie artists straight up straight up well this, this is exciting. I feel like it will be a good window into how she's feeling about what's happened in her life in the last six months and public perception and all of that. By the way, is Ariana Grande the Justin Timberlake of girls?
Starting point is 00:41:02 No. Okay. Ariana Grande. I'd have to think. I'd have to think. Like, Yes End is giving I owe an apology to nobody, Cry Me a River. Just saying. It's a thought starter.
Starting point is 00:41:18 I'm not saying for sure. It's a similar energy of, like, I'm going to do me. Right. Even if me is bad. But the things that Justin has to answer for the crime versus Ari are not really comparable yeah no that's fair that's so fair yeah okay so would you say that like Ari is a small-scale JT or we're just hating the comparison altogether the comparison's not analogous for me. I understand what you're saying,
Starting point is 00:41:49 but it just doesn't feel apples to apples. Fine, fair. I'll drop it. I'll shut up. I've silenced her. I'll just leave. I've silenced her. I'll just leave.
Starting point is 00:41:58 How about that? Okay, do it. What about just go? Do it. Our first walk off? Can't be over this. I say that. Can't be over this. Okay, also, I say that every time I walk off. Our first walk off.'t be over this can't be over this okay also
Starting point is 00:42:05 i say that every time i walk off our first walk off like i've literally never gotten up that's that's cause for leaving bye-bye so are you guys ready for her next story let's just jump right in oh she's still wearing her headphones she can hear me I wanted to catch her in the middle. She's back. Do you have anything to say? Do you have anything to say? Welcome back.
Starting point is 00:42:36 Turdy. I'm sorry. For? Disrespecting you. How? By saying you didn't get up? By literally insinuating that I should like kill myself. I'm sorry for saying that you didn't get up.
Starting point is 00:42:57 You proved me wrong that you got up. So. Yeah, because I don't know about you, but I did run for four minutes straight, so I can't get up now. Classic. Before we dive in, I have something to say. Okay.

Starting point is 00:46:36 Yeah, that's good. I know what I'm going to say, like you're going to yuck my yum. So can you just try to stop yourself? What do you want to put? Like dried cranberries in there? Raisinets. Oh, dried cranberries.
Starting point is 00:46:46 Literally same thing. I love raisinets. I haven't had them in forever. You walk off because you're sick. You walk off. Yucking yums. Disgusting. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:57 Raisinets. Amongst other things. But by the way, Bunch O' Crunch, low key, very good. Bunch O' Crunch is only sold at movie theaters. Same with dibs. Dibs. Dibs. We have this conversation like once a year. I'm having deja vu.
Starting point is 00:47:08 We need to talk about Groundhog's Day because Puxatawney Phil like knew that he was up on the chopping block and Homeboy did not see his shadow. Spring is coming soon. Honestly, like I know it means nothing. Like it has no bearing on the climate, on Mother Nature, on the environment. But when I saw that news this morning, like I perked the fuck up. And PETA wants to take that away from us. And that's why they're discussing.
Starting point is 00:47:29 And then Punxsutawney, like he doesn't give us that early spring often. Often? Ever. So that when he does, it means something. But he also knew he needed to give the people something so that we continue to ride for him. No. And it's nice. Like, okay, Punxsutawney Phil literally worked half a day and he doesn't have to do it again
Starting point is 00:47:47 for another year. Like, if that's not living in the lap of luxury, I don't know what is. No, apparently his digs are lux. I am sure. I feel like he lives at like the Gracie Mansion. Yeah, and they probably have like a whole little... Caretaking team. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:09 I'm happy for Phil. Philil stays winning know that i am speaking of do we have a story about demi lovato today no shit but i you know what i'm gonna make that the fifth because i meant it's funny it's so funny but our next story is a lovely story about jason kelsey who is playing in the pro bowl this, only so he can take his kids to Disney. Relatable. This was cute. Jason Kelsey says traveling for the Pro Bowl means a Disney trip for his kids, so he is in Orlando to compete in the Pro Bowl this weekend. While there's football on the horizon, there's also family time for the girl,
Starting point is 00:48:38 dad of three, who plans on taking his daughters to Walt Disney World. He said, I don't even know what you do in the Pro Bowl anymore, but it's down in Orlando, so I get to take my kids to Walt Disney World. He said, I don't even know what you do in the Pro Bowl anymore, but it's down in Orlando so I get to take my kids to Walt Disney. Not off the Super Bowl, Walt Disney World, but as long as Wyatt gets to see Elsa, I don't think it really matters. Yeah, like it's that classic thing
Starting point is 00:48:56 when you win the Super Bowl. What are you gonna do next? I'm going to Disney World. I literally never understood why the fuck they say that. I don't know. Now that I've been to Disney, I kind of understand. No, for sure. And I think they do go to Disney. Like as a team? What's the correlation? I don't know. Can you look it up? I feel like as football girlies, like we need to know. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:49:12 yeah. Why Super Bowl? And I think it's cute. I think it's cool actually that Jason Kelsey like never plays in the Pro Bowl and he is this year only because his kids want to go to Orlando. It's so cute and sweet. And like they don't know the difference that like, you know, daddy lost. So we're going to Disney versus daddy won. So right. It's Disney thing. But what is the correlation? And I feel like is the Super Bowl even on ABC?
Starting point is 00:49:35 Like ABC is owned by Disney. That I would understand. I feel like the Super Bowl is like on CBS. So it all started when Michael Eisner. Or it's just a tradition, which is nice. Like there's no monetary contract. It all started when Michael Eisner, CEO of Disney, and his wife dined with a couple of aviators
Starting point is 00:49:55 who traveled the world nine stop. The wife asked the pilots what they would do next and they replied, we're going to Disney World. Okay, what does that have to do with the Super Bowl? Right, how is that applicable here? Like, I know it's just a thing people say. That's where the idea of promoting it for the Super Bowl came from. Walt Disney met with NFL organizers, and they reached an agreement for the most valuable
Starting point is 00:50:16 player to say the phrase after the game. Oh, wow. This is like a coordinated attack. But is it like a verbal contract? The first one? Like, now that's just a tradition or do they legally have to I imagine it's one of those things like you always dream of saying. The first player to say he would visit the famous park and star in the company's commercials was Phil Sims who won
Starting point is 00:50:34 in 1987 with the Giants. According to reports the MVP earns between 30 and 50 thousand dollars just for saying the iconic phrase. So I guess if you win and you say it, you get paid. And if you don't, you don't. I feel like they always say it. It's one of those things, like if you want to be a football star, it's like your biggest dream is to say it. But $30,000 to $50,000, when's that article from? Because I feel like with inflation,
Starting point is 00:50:55 like it should be $250,000. 2023. And by the way, I did read, I wanted to talk to you about this, that a lot of the players playing in the Super Bowl this weekend have like incentive-based bonuses in their contract. if they A, make it to the Super Bowl, if they win the Super Bowl. So I think I read Patrick Mahomes will make like another million
Starting point is 00:51:12 dollars just for getting to the Super Bowl. Perti has a, it's not a lot of money, but he'll make like a nice little bonus, like six figures, low six figures. So there are like, you know, merit-based bonuses packed into these NFL salaries that I'm glad to hear though I do think like Brock should kind of make up the difference of the fact that he's not making Super Bowl money yeah no it for sure but anyways I hope that the Kelsey family has a blast this weekend at Walt Disney I'm looking at a picture of them from the last time they went to Disney. And it looks like.
Starting point is 00:51:47 No. I was going to say. It looks like they have that double stroller that Olivia has that I hate. But this one looks a little different. They would never. We were clowning on Olivia's stroller in the Patreon episode. Like. You guys are so mean.
Starting point is 00:51:57 No. Like me and Shabiero. She needs a new double stroller. Why? Like does it. The wheels don't work. It's literally about to. Oh.
Starting point is 00:52:03 The kids are like sardines It's just a piece of crap By the way like Get her one Like stop complaining Obviously it bothers you More than it bothers her That's true
Starting point is 00:52:11 So go get her one That's true Put my money where my mouth is Go to Target Yeah No there's one I have in mind She's the one pushing it There's one I have in mind for her
Starting point is 00:52:20 She's literally the one pushing it And she doesn't appear To be complaining I know But I just feel like She's She's become stubborn about it She's't appear to be complaining i know but i just feel like she's she's become stubborn about it she's like trying to prove something to me that like this stroller works and prove to her husband okay by the way that's so something classic like suffer in silence just for the point yeah totally now are you ready for our fifth and final story
Starting point is 00:52:39 i am demi lovato performs her song Heart Attack for heart attack survivors. Demi Lovato performed her song Heart Attack for a room full of heart attack survivors, and some audience members were not impressed. Demi was the headliner at the American Heart Association's Go Red for Women Red Dress Collection concert. That's a mouthful. On Wednesday in New York City, where she sang some of her biggest hits, including Sorry Not Sorry, Cool for the Summer, Confident,
Starting point is 00:53:08 Skyscraper, Heart Attack. According to an eyewitness, it was her choice of the song Heart Attack that raised a few eyebrows. They said, quote, she was belting heart attack in front of the class of 2024,
Starting point is 00:53:19 who were all survivors of heart attacks. There was a video package played before the fashion show and concert where the women all shared their brushes with death via heart attack how they were all saved during a heart attack one has a pacemaker for the rest of her life demi was smiling the entire oh my god demi was smiling the entire performance and it was really tone deaf said i just want to say eyewitness i wasn't there so i can't really like really read the room of the tone like i don't know how it went down but like this might be the most iconic thing demi lovato's ever done it's peak comedy it's so funny and like low
Starting point is 00:54:01 key you survived a heart attack like light lighten up. Like this is funny. It is. That's funny. And I also feel like if I were Demi Lovato, maybe. Oh, I'm performing for the Heart Association. Of course. Perfect. I have a song just about this thing.
Starting point is 00:54:16 And it's like one of my most popular songs. Yeah. I feel like maybe. Read the lyrics. Read the lyrics. I was literally about to pull them up. I feel like maybe she was even asked to perform because she has a song about the subject matter.
Starting point is 00:54:29 Yeah, of course. Putting my defenses up. Cause I don't want to fall in love. Just speak it. If I ever did that, it's going to be hard, but I'll try. I think I'd have a heart attack. Okay. Yeah, I guess if she fell in love, she would have a heart attack.
Starting point is 00:54:44 It's kind of the moral of the story. No story I guess the hard part of the song is right after this chorus she probably says the phrase heart attack like 10 times heart attack like she keeps yeah no like the last drilling in the last five lines if I ever did that I think I'd have a heart attack I think I'd have a heart attack heart attack I think I'd have a heart attack. I think I'd have a heart attack. I think I'd have a heart attack. Oh, I think I'd have a heart attack. Wait, I'm just want to say one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. As she ends the song, she says, I think I'd have a heart attack eight times. And perhaps that's where some of the outrage has stemmed from. And that I definitely do understand.
Starting point is 00:55:32 Now, I feel like all heart attack survivors are different. So I think maybe like some of them like thought this was funny and some of them thought this was insensitive. Because like low-key, I don't know how I would act if I had a heart attack, but I think I would find it funny. Yeah. sensitive because like low-key I don't know how I would act if I had a heart attack but I think it would be I would find it funny yeah yeah I think that it would kind of be ruder for her to not sing heart attack it would have been like oh the elephant in the room she has a song you guys can't handle the song right I think she was giving them a lot of credit too much credit clearly no they're like a strong group of survivors I think she thought that they like they've been through worse yeah I also love how the article is like an eyewitness as if this was like a catastrophe it was I'm obsessed on the ground seriously there are certain moments in
Starting point is 00:56:16 history that I like would do anything to have witnessed firsthand and like I don't even think a video of this would suffice. Like I needed to feel the energy in this room. But to me, this is 10 points in Demetria's column. And don't come for me. My father died of a heart attack. You can eat my ass respectfully. Oh yeah, so we can say,
Starting point is 00:56:34 I feel like we needed to clarify that. That like. Oh yeah, like we have been touched. Our opinions like matter here. And we think this is hysterical. The American Heart Association, the American Heart Association like failed our father. Like we. Right. like matter here and i we think the american heart association the american heart association like failed our father like we right can say we can say this is funny this is hysterical and i do
Starting point is 00:56:52 feel like right now they'll probably try and like distance themselves from it but i feel like someone on the committee was like we should have demi performed she has a song about this very thing. It's breathtakingly synergetic. I love every minute of it. The end. Oh, and it's a bop, too. Right. Pop that pussy. You survived a heart attack. It's a great song.
Starting point is 00:57:16 And look at Demi donating her time to a cause that might have an important... I'm sure she was paid handsomely. Really? I feel like these things you do for free no these associations have so much money i know but shouldn't that money go to like i don't know finding a cure for heart attack no it's like they go to getting demi lovato so that more people buy tickets so that they can raise more money yeah but like imagine if demi just donated her time i don't think that's how it works i don't know if i don't know i don't know either but also this is also great pr for the american heart association because i didn't think that's how it works. I don't know if, I don't know. I don't know either,
Starting point is 00:57:45 but also this is also great PR for the American Heart Association because I didn't know that they had a, a soiree this month. No, I know that they have their walk. They love their walk. Walking is good for the heart. So is laughing.
Starting point is 00:57:58 So is singing. Jackie, walking is good for the toast and so is laughing. So sit down and listen to the toast. So is singing and dancing, walking is good for the toast and so is laughing. So sit down and listen to the toast. So is singing and dancing to a great song such as Heart Attack. Such as. So those are the fast five. Now, the good news is that while the story is maybe over, the show is not.
Starting point is 00:58:18 Because we have our new segment that we have not forgotten today. Friday, where we kind of wrap up the week by bestowing two prestigious honors upon four different people. Jack and I both are going to nominate someone who acted in a weenie-like manner this week, and we are going to give them the award of the weenie of the week. And we're going to give an award to the queenie of the week, someone who we thought showed great fortitude. That's the word I'm looking for. Against all odds. So I think let's start with queenie
Starting point is 00:58:48 i'm feeling motivated to not nominate demi lovato oh i love for queenie for her brilliant choice of song no this kind of was like how a queen would act i love that i completely agree and i'm feeling motivated to nominate the weenies as the eyewitnesses in attendance who couldn't dance along i love that i'm feeling motivated for that it's giving like weenie energy like come on i completely agree it's actually giving the definition of like yeah that's why yeah because i was gonna do a different weenie but like weenie is not meant to be you know I'm a lek so serious so serious it's just like we yes you did something a little weenie and I don't want like other weenies
Starting point is 00:59:30 to like then feel like oh my god I was in a category with this person like it's it's not a title I feel like Lala Ken it's not something you should wear forever it's just for the week it's a moment in time yeah and next week like you could even be weenie one week and queenie the next for sure my queenie this week is margot robbie like i think the way she responded to the snub but she could have really dug in her heels and been such a victim and i actually would have put her in weenie but the fact that she was like listen other women were nominated it's all good everyone seriously calm down love and respect love and respect to that statement why aren't you saying anything you just like love dipping into the barbie i do i love starting you love starting something that like here you are being one of those people that's like barbie margot robbie's a queen for
Starting point is 01:00:20 the way she handled oh my god you think i'm acting like a Barbie stan? You're like kind of obsessed. No, I mean, Jackie, like think about how far reaching the Oscar snub story went, like Hillary Clinton's statement. And Margot Robbie could have been like such a fucking loser about it. And she wasn't.
Starting point is 01:00:37 Yeah. Sorry, she deserves credit. Yeah, but she wouldn't have been. Even if, you know, she has daggers at the HFPA up on her wall. Like she knows that that's not the way that you act. Right. So that's queen behavior.
Starting point is 01:00:51 Agreed. Now my weenie is someone I really wish I did last week. And I thought about this person all week. Okay. It's Jessica Biel. For weenie. For weenie. That eating in the shower thing. Like the more I think about it. Like it's fucking. It's literallyiel. For weenie. For weenie. That eating in the shower thing,
Starting point is 01:01:05 like the more I think about it, like it's fucking, it's literally the definition of weenie. It's so loser-y. I feel like honestly, like it requires no further explanation. No, it doesn't. I can't even look at a yogurt without thinking.
Starting point is 01:01:18 I can't, I, really? I can't look at a clementine. I can't look at the shower. Yeah. Without thinking, shall I have a snack? Yeah, no, no, there will be no further explanation like jessica beal is my weenie of the week i thought about it all weekend i was so mad at myself for not choosing her last week when we talked about it in the episode on friday but it needed to marinate yeah so with that we will bid you adieu i hope hope everyone has a great weekend.
