Good morning, Millennials! Welcome back to the Toast and Happy Thursday! That feels like a real Thursday, you know what I'm saying? You know, that's not been my experience. Oh my god, just once, like just agree, like for the sake of agreeing, like nobody cares. My, excuse me? Like, it's not that deep, like yeah, it feels like a Thursday. Oh, cause it is, like it's not that deep.

Okay, it feels like a Thursday. Oh, because it is. Like, it's not that deep. Okay. It feels like a Thursday. Yes. I'm so glad you agree. Yeah. I couldn't have said it better myself. You look gorgeous. We're both wearing just kind of like comfy, cozy energy today. We're giving Jim.

I'm wearing, sometimes there's nothing cuter than a gray, like zip up hoodie. I stole this from Olivia and she's not getting it back. Sorry. Gray is tough for me. Now that I've discovered that I think I'm a winter. Okay. So like, I don't know. Is gray a winter or a spring?

Definitely not a spring. It might be an autumn. You should just get your colors done. I know for the amount that I talk about it. Yeah. I think I have some an email in my inbox I need to read it and see if the person's in Florida because then we should do it while you're here

Patreon oh speaking of Patreon probably up today I started the editing process last night I vlogged my whole evening last night which was my book club with my private chef catered affair it was so good the book club like everyone's talking about it everyone said it was like one of our best meetings yet the food was so good the conversation was so good it's really a great book club like everyone's talking about it everyone said it was like one of our best meetings yet the food was so good the conversation was so good it's really a great book club book

everyone liked the book had a lot of very strong critiques of the book um did you hear about kitty car it was the name of the book really just kind of like a textbook perfect evening and a great book club book you would say yeah i i have a i'm like very frustrated it was the author's first like debut novel which is so major. I almost wish she had waited to tell the story. Like she had a little bit more experience under her belt because she tried to do a little too much. And by the end of the book, it's like she ruined the magic she had created in the middle.

And it was on its way to being like one of my favorite books ever. Wow. And I like was so frustrated with it. Like I kind of hate it now it's it's very confusing and everybody was feeling the same way got it interesting what are you guys reading next uh we'll find out today very cool well redheads speaking of book clubs we are reading actually this is kind of exciting big redheads news oh my god hold your gird your loins. We're reading The Frozen River by Arielle Laughan who wrote Code Name Helene.

Okay. Which makes this our first time that we're doing an author twice on the Redheads and she's our, I didn't, I didn't think it would be her

but it's her. Yeah, but like who else would it be? Like it could be, you know, one of the classics, Sally Hepworth. Yeah.

Jessica Knoll. Yeah, yeah, Jessica Knoll. Kriskin Hannah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But it's Arielle Laughan which I love that for her I loved Codename Helene so I'm really excited for Frozen River it's a historical fiction book it's like based on a true story which I love we haven't done historical fiction at the Redheads in a while and in my personal life I've kind of been slipping on my historical fiction we caught

we caught Jack slipping caught me slipping So I kind of need to get back into the history books. And I think that's a good way to dip my toe into the frozen river. I am so excited to see you in just a mere, you know, two days. Hours, technically. Hours at this point. I'm giddy with excitement. I can't wait to see my family. And it's just, it's the end of the week. I'm seeing my family. It's the Super Bowl.

I have my health. No, it's, everything's kind of coming up. Excitement. Joyousness. Positivity. Fun, fun, fun. I'm going to leave it at that that I couldn't agree more

so important like when you're at you know the summit of something is that the right use of the word is the summit at the top or the way up

like it's like you're at the edge of the cliff like you're like there you're there okay so okay I guess maybe no maybe that wouldn't be

I feel like all I'm trying to say be. I feel like this. All I'm trying to say is, like, I feel like a huge part of, like, maintaining a healthy mindset in life is, like, to acknowledge, like, exciting things coming. And, like, I, in this moment, I just want to be very present saying I'm so excited for what's to come for me in the next couple of days. The summit is the highest point. Okay, so I guess I'm like about to reach the summit and I'm sitting here like taking a moment of gratitude. Yeah, and I think the way to the summit,

the on the way to the summit is in some ways better than the summit. I would agree. Because you have what to look forward to. That's really the message of the climb. So once again, the climb, it's always relevant. Once again, everything comes back to the climb. Well, that's the truth. I've been in such a Miley Renaissance since the Grammys. I've been listening to Endless Summer Vacation because I was like, I want more of this girl.

Of that energy. What I didn't realize is the song used to be young, which is one of my favorite songs of last year we talked about it on the patreon of 2023 recap is from that album yeah I thought it was like a new single she was doing new things so I'm like okay so there are two songs that are kind of like life-changing for me from that album yeah I need to listen to the whole album and I only got into four songs before I was forced to play happy song oh my book club was talking about happy song is it really life-saving for them as well some of the mothers in book club they were familiar with the happy song and then some of the newer mothers hadn't heard of it yet and this was like kind of the passing of the torch yeah so I feel like

there's someone out here there who needs to hear this if you have a fussy baby there's a song by Imogen Heap who is a great talent she sings good night and go other bops but she wrote a song for children called the happy song that is like melodically and chemically written to cheer up your baby give it a try it's like designed to ease the mind yeah give it a try next time baby is like fussy and it's not because they're hungry or they're pooped or need a burp or this or that. Like try the happy song. It works for us.

Not all the time, but enough of the time. It worked magically. Oh my God, Jackie, I forgot. I mean, I did tell you this, but I need to talk about it on the podcast. I'm going insanely viral. I heard. Okay. So I was looking through my TikTok drafts, like just to see like things I haven't posted.

And I forgot that I had made this TikTok while we were on our family vacation and I never posted it. It was just this funny moment where we all got up from the dinner table and we realized that our sister Margo had eaten her dinner off of the charger, not the actual plate.

And it was like this funny, stupid thing. I literally went to bed and I was like, oh my God, it's at 700,000 views. I woke up this morning, now 6.3 million. Claudia, the universal no deal TikTok kerfuffle is great for you. No music. Okay, for a second, I was like,

are you speaking English? The universal no deal kerfuffle? Now it makes sense though. No, you're totally right. Now the comments are really split. People being like, you are just like rich. This is such like a privilege, first world problem. Even though like a charger, like you can literally get like at the dollar store for 65 cents.

Like if you've never been to a wedding. And then most people also being like, what is a charger? People like don't know what chargers are. I learned about chargers late in life too. I think a lot of people learn about chargers when they get married. Yeah, when did I learn about chargers late in life too. I think a lot of people learn about chargers when they get married. Yeah, when did I learn about chargers? I don't even think it was when I got married because I didn't register for chargers. No, not registered.

Like decor at your actual wedding. That's, I think, really when I learned what a charger was. Yeah, so it's like a plate that's just decorative. It's like a placemat made out of it's a it's like a placemat made out of plate but it's like really not made out of plate it's not food safe no but it's it's very akin to a plate it's of the plate elk oh it looks like a plate but i'm talking about material wise sometimes they're like made of wood they're not really safe to eat off of no no but you could get confused it looks like a plate and unless's, especially when it's like,

whatever the material was. It's the same shape. The shape, but even the material of the one that she ate off of was a little confusing, except for the fact that like, it was a charger. Yeah, so I'm just like kind of going majorly viral. Like all these, you know, like, like Buzzfeed type like accounts be like we'd love

to share your video please submit content and consent and approval here like no bitch you think you're taking away my views eat my ass you don't think it's gonna like help raise your rising tide raise your side do you think i should do it no no no i want all the clicks you want all the clicks but you don't like you might need the distribution to get more clicks. Well, you know, we'll get there. Maybe I'll sign a distribution deal later on. But right now I'm just like kind of enjoying my moment. For sure, but don't overplay your hand.

So true. And you only have like minutes left before the world moves on. Should I sign it now? What was the publication? Is anything legit? Yeah, like Lad Bible, bible you know like all those big facebook page type of yeah that's really how you get your name out there should i do it i think lad bible you could do i don't know maybe yeah like maybe then we could do like i don't know

the toast uk tour or something i think it should be publication dependent not just like all publications can have the video, but like worthy ones. Yeah, yeah. I feel like Barstool Sports is like about to knock on my door. Like they love to do like- Would you let them? But that's how you go viral because then- Jackie, what have they said about Israel?

That's my litmus test. No, like if one Annie Lennox wanted to repost my video, you know what I would say? Charity says no. That's what I would say. No, Barstool is marked safe. Dave is good. Yeah, I would give it to Barstool.

I'll have to check what Ladd Bible's been saying about the war in Israel. When Barstool then distributes it, then so many more people see it, and that's how you end up on GMA, Today's Show. Oh my God. Mother, what if I have to postpone my trip to see you on gma today's show oh my god you what if i have to postpone my trip to see you because they want me on the today show but what if what if they want

margo you're that's interesting you're not in the video i sound like madison beer but like i'm supposed to be in the video it's no i am in the video you just can't see me the star so by the way so is shapiro he's like in the reflection of the window like cracking up at margo what if they want margo and shapiro on gma oh then i won't sign over any rights and everybody can stay less famous i just when i think about examples that are akin to what you're experiencing it's the person on camera who hoda wants to talk to of course not the sister who posted it unless sometimes the person on camera who Hoda wants to talk to. Of course, of course. Not the sister who posted it. Unless sometimes the person could bring their sister

and maybe she would bring you. Maybe she would bring me. Maybe I just won't forward the email that I get from the Today Show producers asking to be connected with my sister. Also, you and Marco look alike. You could impersonate her. So true.

Okay, you're going to steal the shine. shine yeah or maybe i'll just let this thing die you know no one else if i can't get famous no one else can not rising tides raise all shines for the sisters no no not since you're distant from your family yeah oh and that's the other element like i am aaron rogers so no yeah cut it that's a wrap you don't even have her email no yeah cut it that's a wrap you don't even have her email exactly i couldn't forward it to her if i wanted to sorry oda we by the way have an amazing show today yeah because we have the stories and and tell me about them how are they like i feel good about them there's a couple that feel like that just tickled my fancy you know what i mean and not because they're about royal caribbean or the royal family i think i just like things that say Royal.

No, don't say that. I'm going to look into this. And then there's also the obvious, you know, what you've maybe seen in the headlines. I don't know what I've seen in the headlines, but what I do know is that with our new schedule today, we also have Dear Toasters. We have some very interesting sort of different ones, you know? I love different. We have a write-in about stand-up comedy we have a story about stand-up comedy wait also this next thing has nothing to do with stand-up comedy i just remember that i wanted to say it so i guess i spoke to you yesterday thanks well i yes, but that's not what I was going to say. I spoke to my trainer, Hillary.

She listens to The Toast. And she's going to get us into 5K shape. She has a whole plan. She found us a running coach. We're done. We're good. We're done. We're done.

I'll be able to train in person, but she's going to make a plan for all of us. Okay. Make a plan. Stay alert. Bring a snack. Yeah. Stop, drop, and and roll love that okay great yeah also I think what I've surmised is that maybe the 5k doesn't have a location because they're like not serious about it and I think like maybe we took it really seriously oh my god not me getting a running coach and this whole thing's a joke that's what i was like getting from the comments like i know by the way i think

they just like say oh my god they just like say stuff and they're not kind of like doing it there's no 5k oh my god jackie we named our episode title about the 5K and there isn't even a 5K. I don't know that there isn't a 5K. No, Jackie. Jackie, I was talking about it at my book club. I was like, I was like, I think Joe Rogan's going to come. Jackie, there is no 5K.

There's no 5K. There never was a 5K. And that's why we weren't invited. And that's why's why yeah that's why he can't tell us the location oh Jackie there is no 5k okay no that's not confirmed but it's kind of the the vibe I'm sensing but I got a running coach maybe we do a toast 5k no like I would never choose to do it you know yeah and I was only doing it I was only doing it for like the thirsty element that I get to like meet other more famous successful people

that like who could prop me up and give me attention and like followers and stuff. Like, let's be real. I don't want a 5K for fun. Yeah. I had a goal in mind. Charity? No, sorry.

Like I'll just donate. I'll write a check. Awareness? I'll post on Instagram. So we'll stay tuned. I mean, you never know. They could decide to take it seriously,

but I'm just feeling like, and by the way, wait, wait, no, now that I'm thinking about it, like Bert never answered my DM. Like after he,

like I was like, Oh, like we never connected. Like it was just the story. There was nothing to connect over. Cause there's no 5K. Cool, cool, cool. Yeah.

There is no 5K. Okay, cool, cool. That's so awesome. Me thanks. And like this was just like this little joke on their podcast that like, and they didn't even mean to, but like an unintended consequence of this like funny joke from their podcast was like these two enormous losers showing how desperate and thirsty they are. I just want to say this

all started because Jelly Roll said he was running a 5k. Oh I forgot Jelly Roll was gonna be there yeah. And so People Magazine was fooled too because that's where I saw it. But they are fools. So I don't know why I'm looping myself in with them. I like how like, yeah, we're not fools. We didn't fall for it. You just can't believe everything you read on the internet, I guess. It's just so crazy when you like find out a piece of information that like just rejiggers the way you look at the world, you know? And it all makes sense.

I have like, and why I really relate to this one particular Taylor Swift lyric, like, in this moment, I've never been a natural, all I do is try, try, try. Like, I am genuinely, like, at my core, like, a desperate person. Like, I don't really have any need to be. Like, I have a very full life. I'm very successful. Thank God, knock wood. And this desperation, like, this deeply uncool thing about me,

I can't sort of shake. And now I've just been exposed for who I truly am. Maybe exposing it and showing it to the light is a way to kill it, you know? Sunlight kills. Right, I'm kind of like Edward. You're Edward. Wow, okay. So that sort of shook the foundation on which i walk yeah but you should still train for

the 5k with your running coach i don't know about that let's get into the stories because as tardy stated we have a lot to do today and best not waste time best to make haste without further ado here are the fast five stories that you need to know. And the Fast Five stories that you need to know are brought to you by Current. Old school banking just isn't working anymore.

Our first story, a little comedy drama. Pete Davidson ditches a Radio City warm-up gig for Matt Rife at the last minute. Wait, what? Matt Rife is performing a three- night stand at Radio City Music Hall.

OK, on my way here, I passed like a billboard to those billboards that get like put on construction sites. Yeah. And it was like, congrats, Matt Rife. Six sold out shows. So two shows a night for three nights. I was. That's huge.

Yeah. And Pete Davidson had agreed to open for him, warm up the crowd. But wait, they But they're friends. According to Radio City Insiders, he backed out just two hours before showtime. Backstage sources at the Rockefeller Center Institution say that Matt Rife's team had to scramble to find a backup and eventually got someone lined up

within a matter of minutes before the curtain went up. According to a social media post from the show, John Campanelli ended up filling in for Davidson. Yeah, I mean, I don't think like finding someone new would have been a problem. Like any comic would be honored to do it. But if they sold the tickets being like, with special guest Pete Davidson, you know,

it's kind of a letdown. Oh, did they? I don't know if they sold the tickets. I don't know. But I'm sure he was like really excited.'s his big night the crowd would be so hyped for pete his friend is coming through for him and then for two hours before for pete to cancel that's a little i also think it's like crazy that that matt rife got pete davidson to do something for him like i don't know why i think that's crazy i feel like pete davidson i would have said

like has good friends and is a good friend because he's always like they're always showing up for him like I don't know why I think that's crazy I feel like Pete Davidson I would have said like has good friends and is a good friend because he's always like they're always showing up for him I feel like he has good friendships but this isn't what a friend does and of course like because Matt Rife is kind of rife with scandal right now it your first thought is like is he disassociating from Matt but I don't think that's what it is I'm sure just something came up comics don't do that comics aren't losers who are like oh there's there's a little bit of backlash on TikTok. I should stay away. Comics don't give a fuck. I don't think it has to do with that either.

I also think, yes, Pete has a lot of friends, but I also think that's the nature of comedy. Everybody just supports one another. You need your friends in that business. Or shall I say, in this business. Oh, right, in our business. In our business as comedians. Who run 5Ks. Who are top of the charts

comedians. We need friends. Right. Luckily Turdy and I have each other. That's why we don't know anyone else. We know we have Bert and Tom until further notice. And you have Tinks. I will always have Tinks. We actually have a lot of friends not in the comedy space but in the influencer space. Like we're friendly influencers. A lot of, because you want to know what it is. Like most comedy podcasters come from the comedy world. We are comedy podcasters who weirdly came from the influencer world. So we're just different in that way.

And that's why we're not like other shows. And we're probably better than everyone else if I had to guess. Yeah. Sounds right. Speaking of comedy news, something that wasn't a story, but I find to be newsworthy is Shane Gillis hosting SNL. And I've been meaning to talk about it. I'm so glad you brought that up because I saw it and I sent it to you and I was shook because for anyone who doesn't understand why it's a big deal, the first time I had ever

heard of Shane Gillis was many years ago when he was announced as one of the new SNL cast members. And obviously for any comic, that's like the job of the century and it's like the biggest deal. Then they had announced that he was the one of the new cast members. Of course, you know, the Internet did their thing. Found some old clips of him saying some unsavory things on a podcast, specifically using a slur. And he was immediately, you know, the offer was withdrawn. And I think for like any comic who, you know, gets to SNL, I don't know if there's anything worse.

Like I don't, I think what happened to Shane Gillis is like so many people's worst nightmare. Yeah, it was extremely swift. To reach the summit, to reach the summit, and then fall down. And then have it taken away. And what was so interesting about what happened to Shane Gillis is that he kind of took, you know, this lemon

and made it into lemonade, and his career really blew up after that he just like pounded the pavement podcast podcast podcast he put his he produced his own comedy special put it out for free on YouTube it blew up so much so that the next time he recorded a special Netflix bought it and it was like the number one special a few months ago it was really popular yeah um and he kind of made himself someone who's like a little too famous to even be a cast member on and he kind of made himself someone who's like a little too famous to even be a cast member on SNL he's kind of someone who's you know the guest host on SNL and they did it which I think is so crazy like I don't know if I was Shane Gillis would I be like butthurt and like bitter and not accept I don't know not for hosts to come back in that way like

if they had asked him to be a cast member now I'm sure he would be like oh you can go fuck yourself no and he wakes makes what he has a huge podcast he's like below us sometimes but but sometimes above us yeah yeah he's makes a lot of money doing that podcast before he even got the first job like everything that he's doing now is what he was doing before the first SNL job and that's why he got the job. And then he was taken away from him. And then he's continued to just like do Shane, do his podcast, do his comedy. And as we say, the cream rises. And now he will be hosting SNL,

which is completely full circle and a really crazy thing. And I absolutely have to watch his monologue just to see how, this is like, to me, this is historic. Like, I need to see how they're gonna address it like and they're they're going to I mean how could they not it's really the elephant in the room but also it's so interesting I think that when he was if you watch his special and I've seen a lot of clips I think I watched the special but I also see clips he does like an insanely funny and good Trump impression and I think that's why he was booked to begin with for that impression.

Because if you think of who they've had play him in the last few years after Alec Baldwin, or even maybe Alec Baldwin included, it's like not great. And the guy who they currently have for Trump isn't a cast member. He just is the Trump guy. He comes in to do Trump. He's like not even a good one. Agreed. I'm sure they'll utilize that.

I think they'll have him do that impression. But I think that's why he initially got the job. It wouldn't make sense because when you audition for SNL, you like audition with impressions. Yeah, no. And when I read Kenan's book, not to always, you know, be bringing up Kenan, it is very impressions based. Yeah. It's like very, it's like old school, like sketch comedy.

It's not. You have to like do characters. It's not really. A lot of people who I think try out for SNL, maybe even get on SNL, like aren't like stand up comics. They do this sort of like improv. They're from like those improv groups. So Shane Gillis is very much like a multi-talented comic because he does the impressions, but

he also writes like really good stand up. I'm fascinated by this. And of course, people are like up in arms on the internet being like, you know, he's not sorry, but I think this is like such an interesting life cycle of a cancellation. And we haven't seen it before this to me, this is sets a precedent and I'm beyond interested. I also just think it's like kind of crazy,

like to have let him go, like SNL was making a statement. Yeah. Like they were, they were making, which was very uncommon, the comedy world, like they don't do that, you know? so it was very sort of out of character and bizarre

but of course like when the mob comes like you just buckle like that's what people do so the fact that they did cancel it was such like a strong move and booking him is like a strong move in the total opposite direction I find it very confusing yeah we'll see how it plays out and what sort of message they're gonna send and what they're gonna say about it i'm like i will be tuning in maybe perhaps even live yeah i just want to see the musical guest is 21 savage great great february 24th see you there oh it's not this weekend no oh who on god's green diddly dally earth earth knows where I'm going to be on February 24th? What is this weekend?

Let's see. I don't think there is SNL this weekend. Oh, because it's also the Super Bowl. Right. Yeah, there is none. And they just kind of make up their own schedule. I kind of love and respect that, you know? Yeah.

Like, maybe we'll do a show. Maybe we won't. Maybe it'll be a rerun. Maybe not. They're just, like, always keeping us on our toes. Yeah. Yeah. Because we're just waiting with bated breath.

Are you ready for our next story? Yes. Some really lovely news. 40 megastars have come together for one magnificent image on British Vogue as they say a farewell to Edward Enifel, the editor-in-chief of British Vogue so who I didn't even know was leaving he's leaving the cover of his final magazine is 40 huge stars one class picture they all and they're like his girlies like they're not random they all had like been on the cover at one point in his career they all signify like the past the present and the

future for him uh they all came to New York on the same day for a photo shoot and these are some of like the biggest stars ever it's a really you know what it's giving it's giving Jenna Rink yes 30 going on 30 like the graduation prom scene when they all are like in the park and there's leaves and it's like the best scene on television history it is but those were like regular degulars. No, and by the way, I'm sure like the vibe on this set was like so toxic and like rude. They were like eating cupcakes in Jenna Rink's version

and there was like, you know, snow in the air. Well, this one was probably just like a different kind of snow. The story they're telling is like, it was just such a beautiful, harmonious day. Sure. I think it was like a mega factory of getting all the girls ready and styled

and everyone comes with teams. I think there were probably so many people there. They shot it was like a mega factory of getting all the girls ready and styled. And everyone comes with teams. I think there were probably so many people there. They shot it at like a warehouse in the city. But the final image is beautiful. I mean. Read me some of the names. I mean, I saw it, but. Naomi Campbell, Kaia Gerber, and Cindy Crawford.

Oh, I didn't put that together because they weren't seated next to each other. There are a couple like interesting dynamics where it's like, oh, I wonder how these two got along. Cara Delevingne, Miley Cyrus, Victoria Beckham, Oprah, Serena Williams, Anya Taylor-Joy, Carly Kloss. There were some major randoms in there. Jamila Jamil. Jamila Jamil, Ariana DeBose. Yeah, like really random. Yeah, there were a couple randoms in there jamila jamil jamila jamil ariana debose yeah like really random um yeah there were a couple randoms i'm sure they like mean something to edward and victoria beckham

yeah i said her i love her i'm sorry amber oh i actually just met amber veletta nice lady and very gorgeous in person um what i wanted to say before I like had to be annoying and name drop and I forgot what I was gonna say shall I continue you know British Vogue like is so all the all the Vogue's but like British Vogue is really I feel highlights like how much like better American Vogue could be doing I feel like American Vogue like never does anything iconic they're always like getting in trouble these days. Yeah. No. Always. For something or other. It's like Joe Coy and then Trevor Noah. It's like it shouldn't be so hard.

Here you have someone who shows you how you can do your job. No and it's literally Vogue. Like do better. They act like oh you know it's hard to get a great cover and to be on the polls. But like British Vogue is always showing it up. I remembered what I was going to say.

Have you been seeing the like pre-commercial Super Bowl commercials for Uber Eats with the Beckhams? Obsessed. I thought it was 10 out of 10 perfectly executed. I loved that they let her wear her Victoria Beckham shirt that she sells. People are mad it's like $100 because it's literally like a piece of merch. Obsessed. What did they call her?

Not Jennifer Aniston. Jessica. It's a funny commercial. It is. And I'm sure we get more commercial at the Super Bowl. For sure. Yeah. All the Super Bowl commercials are rolling out slowly.

I also know that Edward was like a a close friend of Taylor Swift so I'm sure she's busy and she just couldn't make it but it would have been cool if she was in there it would have been it was in December so she wasn't she was free she was free and it was in New York do you think anyone got this email and like didn't Taylor Taylor Swift. You think? I could see like someone getting this and not realizing how iconic it was going to be and just kind of being like, oh, they wanted me to do some like celebratory thing for British folk.

Right. I can't make it. No, but like Oprah's there, you know? Yeah. But then when you see the picture, it's like if anybody didn't participate, who was invited, like you're. You know what?

You know who I actually think probably did that? Madison Beer. She was supposed to be in the video, but. Yeah. I love that reference. I'm sorry. Because like that would happen to me. No, what would happen to me is like to get an email

and like not really register the significance of it and be like, oh, I don't really want to do that. And then you see the picture and you're like, I should have done that. Right i should have done things i didn't do that so yeah huge name salma hayek linda evangelista they had a sleepover the night before the article said salma stayed at linda's place oh not all of the women no just these two but like is it why are you saying salma selma sorry wait who are we talking about oh sorry i think you're talking about because selma blair is on

there too okay sorry i like wasn't listening to you salma hayek and who linda evangelist had a sleepover that's weird and isn't salma hayek married to that guy the like richest man yeah like she stayed at linda's place in new york like he can't get a hotel she stayed at linda's dump like that's a little weird for sure that's like elon too he's the richest man in the world and whenever he travels he stays at a friend's place and the way that just would never ever be me like not in a million years. He's literally a couch surfer. It's so crazy. And the way I travel, I act like I have Elon Musk's finance.

Like, imagine if I actually did. This would never be me. You guys know how I feel about that. Like, rich people cosplaying as poor people. I, you know, marry you with paper rings type of things. Like, no, don't. Yeah. Don't.

Kate Moss on the cover with lottie moss another duo yeah cute it was it was really beautifully done and it was 1000 giving jenna rink yeah yeah and everyone looks great individually and together like it probably took a lot of styling yeah so great execution. Mm-hmm. Bon voyage, Edward. I didn't even know he was leaving.

Yeah. Are you ready for our next story? Yeah. Podcaster, Bobby Althoff, calls her estranged husband,

Corey, incredible after he files for divorce from her. No, I need, and I know people tune into this podcast

to hear us explain stuff. I need someone to explain to me what the hell is going on. Okay, so Bobbi, I'll talk for those of you who don't know, she is the one who had that viral podcast interview with Drake. Her show is called. She was the girl who like, she was like a mom on TikTok. What's her show called?

Decently big platform. She started a podcast and literally it took over the world. People thought she was an industry plant. She had guests like Mark Cuban, Drake. Like it was so weird. It was so random. It was like overnight. Overnight.

And then it was gone. And then there were at the time like rumors about her husband and rumors about like her like sleeping with Drake. Like it was just so crazy. And I was like, okay, whatever. But then now they actually are getting divorced. So now I'm like, wait, what the fuck? Yeah. Her podcast is called the really good podcast and months ago there were

rumors that she like hooked up with Drake after their viral interview or whatever she totally denied and she went on BFF's pod yeah it was yeah that drama with Dave but now her and her husband are getting divorced she posted as most of you have heard Corey and I have filed for divorce as sad as I am right now I'm so thankful for the time I got to be his wife. Our girls are so lucky to have him as a father, and I'm so lucky to be able to co-parent with such an incredible father in person. Now, I don't know anything, and I'm not saying that she cheated on her man, but if she did, this would be the type of caption you would write when you're really sorry.

You know, it's like a really nice caption. Yeah, like, I fucked up. He's good. Amazing. Perfect man. Perfect husband. Anyone's lucky to have him. Like, all right, calm down. Don't be mad at me, please. you know it's like a really nice captain yeah like i fucked up he's good um amazing perfect man perfect husband anyone's lucky to have him like all right calm down don't be mad at me please right like sry because when you write when you feel this way about someone that like you would write these nice things about them like you should be married to them right and why are you a great

man you're a great parent like okay so stay married totally random totally like random sidebar so you know toby keith the um country singer he passed away from stomach cancer so sad i and i'm sure he was just you know like really upset about it but like luke combs posted on his story like rip toby just that like legend. But it was like, it was really short. And what was a picture of? Nothing. Just black. Black Rip Toby.

Yeah. It was all caps. R, capital I, capital P. Not, so it was more like Rip Toby, not Rip Toby, which is better. It's still a rip. I know. And I think, you know, Luke was probably just like acting out of grief and I can't be mad. But like, I just I wanted to note that our king, our king ripped.

You wanted to rip him a new one? No, I didn't. Also, should we talk about the backlash? We didn't. Do Toby Keith. We got a lot of backlash for not choosing Toby Keith as a story because we're big country music fans. And Jackie and I have said this repeatedly

and we actually spoke about it offline. Like I, we, unless it's like, you know, Queen Elizabeth dying, like I really don't like, like talking about death as a story. It's like not interesting conversation because what else are we going to say? Like, oh, we're happy someone died. No, like it's sad.

We're going to say rip. Yeah, no. Especially when it's not like a shock, like there's some that are stories because it's not like a shock. There's some that are stories because it's like, oh my gosh. But when it's just like rest in peace, great talent, legend. And it's not someone that we've really spoken about. There's not that much to say.

That's why it wasn't a story. But we have the utmost respect for Toby Keith. And we hope that he. Alan Jackson as well. We hope that he rests in peace. Legend, icon. Of course. Red solo cup. for Toby Keith and we hope that he Alan Jackson as well we hope that he rests in peace legend icon of course like king

red solo cup I pick you up let's have a party thanks for clearing that up it's not a big conspiracy you guys like we just didn't choose a story

yeah cause it's just I'm not gonna say what I was gonna say it would've been a pun oh that wasn't like say it would have been a pun oh that wasn't like it wasn't intentionally be a pun but it would sound like a poem you know what i mean so good you caught it so good i caught it are you ready for our next story no i kind of love the name toby for

people girl or boy boy okay toby soffer on it wait kind of love cute it is right i feel like toby is always a kid like a grown no and i also do feel like for a man like i don't know if i've ever like met like a toby who was in really good shape. Like Toby is a fat boy's name. Like one thousand percent. Because it's one letter away from Tubby. Also, because it looks like it sounds and looks like tuba, which is like this huge instrument. That's what I thought. Oh, I think of Tubby.

Yeah, Tubby. No, for sure. Maybe it's like a curse of a name, especially with like my genes and Ben's genes. Never mind. But maybe he was meant to be a Toby. I don't know. I just kind of like the name. I also like the name Keith, by the way.

People with last names that are first names. Firsty lasty. That's not a firsty lasty. Okay. There is a lot of controversy and conversation about what a firsty lasty is. Some people think a firsty lasty is someone who has a first name for a first and last name. Like Toby Keith is a first name, a firsty lasty because. No, we don't think that.

But then other people say that being a firsty lasty means like you're the type of person who you can't just say Jackie. Like it's Jackie Oshra. You have to say the first and the last name. Yeah, I'm not a firsty lasty. No, no, but I was using you as like an who's an example of a firsty lasty like honestly like Drew Barrymore like no one would say Drew except her show is like oh no it's a Drew Barrymore show right because she's a firsty last yeah that's a firsty lasty sound off in the comments what do you think a firsty lasty is or have you never heard that phrase before is that an awestruck family thing no i feel like it's from the clickbooks it's giving clickbooks it's giving idiotic clickbook

and so i feel like we can determine what the definition is it's in writing in the text it's in the scripture we can go to the source should we reread the click books? No, I think it would just like make us like feel really like old and be like, what were we reading? Yeah. Like no wonder, like I was such a nasty little child. Like I was reading the click books, like,

and who did I idolize in the click books? Like the meanest cunt of all. Of course she was the best. She was like the prettiest, the richest. Like, of course we were going to stand. Most stylish,

like trendsetter. Everyone wanted to be at Massey's house. What is Massey doing this weekend? Oh, can we get invited to Massey's BBQ? Like, the way she had her in and out list, she was doing it before 2024. Right, like, no wonder, like, girls our age, like, we grew up, like, watching Mean Girls and reading the clicks. Like, no wonder we're nasty, nasty women. Gossip girl. The books, clicks. Like no wonder we're nasty, nasty women. Gossip Girl.

The books too. That's what we read. A thousand percent. Yeah. Now are you ready for our next story? What number is it? It's number four. So New York City was blessed with a rare sister sighting on Tuesday.

And it wasn't us. Me and you? No. Okay. It was the Olsen sisters. Ashley, Mary-Kate, and Elizabeth stepped out for a sister's night out as photographers captured the trio

strolling the streets while braving the chilly weather. Oh, I need to see these photos. I can't believe, I always forget that third one's related to that. I know, and I just feel like they must be distant because we don't see them together.

But they're not. And they are together. And they literally named their clothing line after her Elizabeth and James oh my god by the way seeing them all together is so crazy because Elizabeth also does that like smile they're twins literally can you tell Mary-Kate and Ashley apart yes can you no also did you know that ashley welcomed a baby secretly last year no a baby boy named otto well seeing them all three just like being regular girls walking around and now this article has photos of them like together throughout the years there aren't a lot it's the craziest thing also how the elizabeth the youngest one like towers over them she's a giant she's not a giant she's probably like margo's height and they're our height i just like love them love like and

they're so sisterly done is so impressive i feel like not enough people talk about the row enough as it pertains to mary kate and ashley people know the row is like this like you know amazing fashion house but like i think a lot of people don't even put together that it's mary kate and ashley we just need like more from them and I know they don't want to give us anything but like just something please a documentary a memoir like we need you the culture needs you I guess they're giving us clothes and they like constantly what I want by the generation and are leading by example with their fashion statements but we still need more I don't know if I want a memoir really I don't like I'm trying to think format wise. I mean, if they did do a memoir, first of all, we need a title.

Second of all, would it be one book? I feel like they're 37 years old. They want their own book. Yeah. It's so crazy they're only 37. Wait. Is it? Wait, they're 37?

Yeah. How on God's green diddly dally earth does that make sense? Which part? They're too old or too young? Too old. Not that they're too old. They were always a couple years older than us. No, no.

I feel like when we were watching Full House and stuff, they were younger than us. No, when we were watching their teen movies, they were older, cooler girls. A few years older. No, you're right. You're right. Like New York Minute, we were in the eighth their teen movies they were like the older we were the same a few years older no you're right you're right like new york minute we were like in the eighth grade and they were like in high school yeah yeah yeah okay okay that's fair yeah and then and i love that sister how old is elizabeth oh she's 34 and what about james brother like what about him what does he? I think he does Brother Tings.

I think he does Brother for Sale. I think they sold him 25 cents. Brother for Sale. He's not a big expense. Jackie. Well, there's a lot of siblings. There's Mary Kate and Ashley and Elizabeth. There is Jake, Courtney, Trent.

Courtney? Jackie, Jackie, wait. I don't see James. Oh, Jake. I guess that would be his birth name. Courtney. Who is Courtney? Courtney Taylor Olsen is an American actress.

She is popularly known as the half sister of the Olsen sisters, Elizabeth and Mary Kate. Elizabeth is an actress. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Courtney. Half. Okay. So there's also Trent. Must be another half if he didn't get named on the label.

Sorry. Older brother. No. He has played himself in a few of his sister's video series. He's brother for sale, I guess. Brother for sale. Only 50 cents. What a tangled web that these siblings meet.

And I want to know about the parents. These parents who had like six children, two of them being such successful child stars. Okay. So the dad, David, and the stepmom. So there are five children, some step, I believe. Cool. Yeah, this is very, very interesting to me.

Like I said, documentary memoirs of an Olsen. And when the Olsens got their Hollywood Walk of Fame star, they brought all their siblings. I'm like on this Getty image search right now. Very interesting. So they had an SNO last night. I love that. I want to know where they went.

We need a little. I was going to say, where did they go? SNO inspo. Right. Because where they would go, like we would go. That's probably a good place that's good for sisters and would foster like sisterly dialogue. Sisterly love. Sisterly closeness.

Love. So we'll have to make a reservation. Before we dive into the fifth and final story, might I say something? Today's episode of The Toast is brought to you by Mattress Firm. The right mattress matters and Mattress Firm will help you find the right one.

The line where the sky meets the sea is calling Moana once again.

Disney announced the sequel to Moana will be released theatrically on November 27th. That's very exciting. The second Moana was originally developed as a TV series, but became a feature film because Bob Iger was impressed with the footage. So Moana 2 comes to theaters this November. Also, Moana is getting like the live action treatment. So there's just like a lot going on in the world of Moana 2 comes to theaters this November. Also Moana is getting like the live action treatment. So there's just like a lot going on in the world of Moana. And let me tell you another part of this story that I find so interesting. I feel like I told you this story.

Do you remember? I think it was during COVID when those two girls on TikTok, one of them is like a pop star singer songwriter. The other is like this musical composer. They started making all these videos. Like what if Bridgerton was a musical? And they ended up writing a whole album that got like millions of streams. They got nominated for a Grammy and won. It was like this amazing thing that happened on TikTok. They have been tapped to write the music for Moana too. Oh, that's so great. Which does mean Lin-Manuel Miranda's out of a job, which people are both celebrating, but also being like, but he did slap the first time.

Yeah. I feel two ways because obviously like I don't ever want someone to not have a job but Lin-Manuel has many so let's open up the field to other people but he as much as we clown on Lin like he's responsible for so many hits hit after hit and like how far I'll go and yad welcome I mean if not for Lin-Manuel we wouldn't have yad welcome what can I say except yad welcome. I mean, if not for Lin-Manuel, we wouldn't have yad welcome. What can I say except yad welcome? We love to joke, but like at the end of the day, like we always say the cream rises and that shit, that soundtrack from Moana 1, like was that bitch. Like it was top tier.

Lin is the cream? Question mark? Lin is the cream? Exclamation point. Lin is cream. Period. That's kind of like something for me to wrap my head around. Like, I don't appreciate Lin-Manuel in his time.

No, and it's because like his personality gets in the way of his talent. Yeah, but I feel okay knowing. But again, is that even true? Do we even know him? That Lin is appreciated in his time. Like everyone is obsessed with him. He gets every job that's remotely Lin-like. Lin is a multi, multi-millionaire.

Like Lin is, hashtag Lin is fine. Yeah, but this is a lot of pressure for those girls because one, a sequel is a lot of pressure. Even if Lin were doing it, he has to out-Lin the Lin. Disney has a very high bar. But like if these songs, like what, oh no, I just got confused for a second. But still, How Far I'll go major yeah

but I like I thought I felt I have followed this like these two girls stories just because I thought it was so cool that they won a Grammy and I feel like they literally could win an Oscar now or like a Golden Globe like they could be EGOTs and they're just you know two girls two girls Abigail Barlow and Emily Bear yeah and they're they're they two girls two girls abigail barlow and emily bear yeah and they're they're they're like a writing duo barlow and bear it's giving like pasik and paul you know like it's giving iconic writing duo yeah i'd rather see pasik and paul out there shaking that thing i wouldn't mind it i i love me some pasik and paul me too except what's crazy is pasic and paul did la la land and i don't give a rip about la la land i didn't like la la land maybe i should

probably like watch it again but i would probably still not give a rip i just don't give a rip no i know and when people think pasic and paul they think La La Land we think Pasek and Paul greatest showman or Evan Hansen yeah La La Land that's like makes you think

I feel like that's like a glitch in my matrix it's like something I should like that I don't like there's a couple things like that such a good point

it's such a good point yeah I guess I just can't be pinned down you can't put me in a box well that's for damn sure you can't like pinned down. You can't put me in a box. Well, that's for damn sure. You can't like make a movie for me and expect me to like it.

You just never know. But I am going to pin you down right now because the girlies need your help, Jackie. It's Dear Toasters time. So sit down. And help I should do. So Dear Toasters is our weekly advice segment where you guys write in to us and we'll choose three submissions every week to try and help out the girlies. All the issues, they range from, you know, wedding stuff to work stuff to health stuff to husband stuff mostly.

So feel free to write us in. Deertoastersatgmail.com is the email. Your prompt will remain completely anonymous. If you've written in and we have not read it on air, either your prompt is uninteresting or it was too long. Try and keep it like concise. Need to know information. You can also head to thetoastpodcast.com.

Check it out there. There's a little submission box once you scroll down on the website. Also anonymous. Ready? Yep. Good morning to the wonderful, stunning, turdy, and the beautiful wise Jackie O. I am writing in because I am having a predicament. My hilarious husband has recently started doing stand-up comedy and is starting to climb the comedy ladder where we live. When he first started doing comedy, I told him that I didn't want him to joke about me during his sets because I didn't want to feel disrespected. Now he's getting invited to host shows. And when I go to his shows that feature other comics, I've noticed that every single comic, but my husband tirelessly jokes about their wives, significant others during their sets. Am I being an insecure loser? Should I just let him joke

about me to help his comedy career? Turdy, have you had this combo with Ben? Help. That's such a great question and an interesting predicament. And I feel like you're being very self-aware, but I think the boundary that you said is really nice. And if I were you, I wouldn't reconsider it unless he comes to you and says, like, listen, I have this joke and having this boundary is like holding me back a little bit or having him, you approve a joke. I would just like wait till he mentions it but if

he's having success not joking about his relationship I think that's like really respectable and totally fine that's so funny I was gonna say something different even though like I do agree with you the thing is is like I do feel like it's most likely limiting his potential because so much of comedy is like about your own life and if obviously you're married like a huge part of your life is your marriage and there's so much comedy to be a better comedian because if everybody's making relationship jokes and like he has to think outside of that box like he might eventually be like one of a kind in making different kinds of jokes it's possible I I guess I wouldn't, you know, say anything unless he says something. Yeah.

And it's very sweet that he hasn't. I never ran it by Ben, but I also know there's a line. Like, I'm not looking to be out here embarrassing my husband. Like, I want to do a show that's like relatable and funny and that people can relate to. But also, like, I have a norm. I'm not the type of person who, that I have respect for my husband. So as long as your partner loves you and has respect for you, they really,

they won't say something awful, you know? Yeah. But even in the name of a joke. Yeah. I think that if it's weighing on you, you could ask him and be like, hey, is this kind of holding you back? Do you ever wish that you could make these jokes

and you guys could have a conversation about it? You don't even have to like wait for him to bring it up because maybe he doesn't bring it up because he knows that you would say no. So I think you should broach the subject and ask him, see how he feels about it. And if this is something he's been feeling like, oh, I have these jokes,

like maybe you guys could start somewhere where like he just like runs them by you and not forever, but just to get you comfortable with it. I think that like, I, I think it's awesome that he's gotten so far while respecting your boundaries. But if you're starting to feel like you're holding him back,

then just ask him about it. I think this is nice. Yeah. You both sound like normal level headed people who can have a conversation, which is amazing. Isn't always the case with your toasters or comedians. Facts.

Was that a Bert Kreischer dig? No kidding. kidding all right ready for our next one yeah hey jackson turd this one sounds like a novel like a thriller my maternal grandmother called me yesterday for a very casual conversation but towards the end she mentioned that she and my grandfather were going to get their will made later this week she explained that their cumulative assets total over $4 million and that the inheritance would be split between my younger sibling and I. This was completely unexpected. She told me not to tell anyone besides my boyfriend. I know this will be so awkward when the time comes and my mom finds out. Both she and my dad will be shocked and hurt. She encouraged me to be transparent with my boyfriend. We've been together for over five years, live together,

and plan to get engaged within the year. Can I him promise not to tell anyone i don't really want his family to know what do i tell who do i tell what do i buy do i need a lawyer this is so weird granny's causing drama not even the fact that she wants to give it to you guys which is you know her right to do but that she wants you to tell your boyfriend doesn't want you to tell your mom like why is she playing games this grammy whatever you do do not tell your boyfriend like sorry I like to me we'll get into your mom in a second because that's fucking awkward and like you'll have to figure out whatever but like literally don't tell your boyfriend like I think you can like keep this close to the best I don't think you need a lawyer yeah and even if she wants to leave the money to

why is she telling you now and causing drama between you and your mom? Like, granny's causing trouble. It would have been better for her to just, like, you know, when the time comes, like, pass away and then, like, mic drop with the reading of the will. Very, you know, very gossip girl. But she's, like, putting this thing between you and your mom by, one, the inheritance, and two, like, the secret of it.

What's granny up to? Yeah, and also, like, is your mom, like, the inheritance and two, like the secret of it. What's granny up to? Yeah. And also like, is your mom like waiting on this money? Like. Yeah. I just. I like to respect yard elders. And typically if there's a grandma like in a deer toasters, I'm always going to take granny side.

But like what's granny got up her sleeve yeah there was kind of no reason for her to drop this bomb like it should have been posthumously also why she's only doing her will now people have wills like throughout their lives yeah maybe she's rejiggering it because she's like having an argument with her daughter and she's like trying to get you on her side by giving you two mil right right right granny is being petty. Do not tell your boyfriend. Like I feel like that's the more important part of this conversation.

Oh, that's the other piece of this. That's so weird. Let it be like a nice thing once you guys get married, like then you really can share. But like this is private. And boyfriends, I'm sorry, they come and go. By the way. You've been together for five years, yada, yada.

No. The money isn't yours yet even, so there's nothing to say. She could blow it all before she goes she does sound also like a little bit like a reckless kind of woman like maybe she changed changed her mind she's giving reckless granny i wouldn't count this money as your own just yet it's so true maybe just sit quiet and it's nice i guess the only person you can really talk to is your sister yeah so kind of the

sister i wonder if granny told her something different i think granny's playing games or did granny not even tell the other sister it's giving like um what's that movie knives out yes it's giving like everyone thinks they're getting the inheritance. Oh my God. And Granny wants to see what they all do. Keep it to yourself. Someone's gonna kill Granny. Don't play this game.

I wouldn't get caught up in it. I agree. It's a trap. It's a trap. Go about your life as if Granny never told you because you're not getting that many. I'm sorry to tell you. Yeah. It's getting diabolical, Granny.

It's getting diabolical granny. Our third and final Dear Toasters is looking for a little bit more of, like, tactical advice, okay? I love tactical. I like actionable advice. Like, I think we can actually give this girl a good plan. I've heard this marriage tip recently that when, like, your partner is complaining that you should say,

do you want comfort or do you want solutions? I feel like that's what you would say to, like kid. No, no. It's like when you're complaining about something, wait, I love that. Right. When you're complaining about something, like, do you want me to actually tell you, like help you or just like commiserate with you? Oh my God. That happened to me the other day. Like I, oh my God, Ben was, oh my God. Cause I go straight for solutions. I'm solution oriented, which is why I like this, Dear Toasters, that's why I brought this up. But it's a great question to ask.

Do you want comfort or do you want solutions? Oh my God, because no, Ben was coming at me with solutions and it felt like an attack. Like I was doing something wrong and that's why I was in this position. And honestly, like I got so mad at him and I was so wrong and I took my anger out on him because I was angry about something else.

Oh my God, I love that. Can you like text that to Ben? Yeah, oh, yeah. I was thinking like and I took my anger out on him because I was angry about something else oh my god I love that can you like text that to Ben yeah oh yeah I I was thinking like I need it that's so funny I think Ben and I are really similar are we uh yeah but then Ben definitely like takes on in terms of like emotions like sometimes a little bit more of like the traditionally feminine role like no he's very emotional no I'm not emotional like if any you're not yeah yeah I don't know anyways I just thought it was um it was good because also when you just want comfort you don't want solutions my friend no no and it's like stop and I'm always now and it also forces a person who's who's struggling to be like what do I want you know to yeah be like huh that's a good question it's good marriage tip of the day so speaking of

actionable advice I am a 30 something mother of two and since having children I feel as if my vocabulary is embarrassing and limited I find myself struggling for simple words and synonyms in my workplace I was an advertising and marketing major in college and my written communication far exceeds my verbal mostly because I have time to compose my words. I'm worried when I actually meet people for work, they think I am dumb. You both have such a colorful spoken vocabulary. Would you attribute it to being avid readers or something else? Please help. Please be the Cher Horowitz to my tie. I hope it's not sporadically. That is such a good question. I just have to say, if I didn't do this podcast every day, that would be me. Like my, your brain, it's so easy for your brain to become mush.

Like you're talking baby talk all day, like one word. And you're trying to find the simplest word for what you're trying to convey to your child. So it's totally normal and natural. Literally doing the show like forces me to exercise my brain, which I'm grateful for. But I do find it harder these days than it used to be for me to like reach for words. What was the word the other day I couldn't find recreationally yeah so this is so real and I do feel like I have a very colorful vocabulary but it's because I practice every single day by doing this show so I don't know if it's enough for you to just listen to shows like this or other shows

where there's a lot of colorful language because maybe you can absorb some of it. But reading, of course. Right, no, but she really said like she has, it's not so much her like knowledge because she's like, I can write really well. Like she has the words. She has a hard time bringing them brain mouth, you know, like connecting your brain to your mouth. And I feel like it kind of sounds like she needs brain camp. Yeah, but what is brain camp?

I don't know. What is brain camp? I mean, there are like a kind of sounds like she needs brain camp. Yeah. But what is brain camp? I don't know. What is brain camp? I mean, there are like a bunch of apps and games. Like I play this game. It's a board game. It's called anemia. And anemia, like the definition of that word is like when you, when you can't think of like, you know the word, but you can't say it.

It's like the brain mouth connection. It's actually a really fun game. But I also think it's actually like a challenge that would perhaps put you on the spot so a board game yeah a board game also I think maybe even just calling a friend having more adult conversations maybe a friend who's like your funny lively friend and it's just going to be like an upbeat conversation um that can help you just like exercise your mouth you can practice because when I go back and listen to like old episodes of the toast, my God,

I sound so stupid. I say sentences like filled with nothing like, um, yeah, totally. And I'm still not great, but I say much more substance in sentences now. Yeah.

It's a skill that you have to like fine tune. And when you spend so much time talking to children, of course, of course it's so natural, but yeah, trying to find more time for adult conversation maybe a word of the day I've never really stuck to a word of the day but the few times I've done it like I've gotten something out of it but I don't know really where I get my new words from we were having this conversation when I did Shannon's podcast she was asking about my vocabulary like how do I have such a

big vast colorful vocabulary and I do not know the answer reading definitely helps but I've had it since before reading no but the thing for me is like I have to see and interact with a word like 10 times before I start to even want to know what it means like mercurial is a new word of mine and it's because it was in illicit affairs by Taylor Swift and like I was like okay that's a word of mine and it's because it was in illicit affairs by taylor swift and like i was like okay that's a word i just learned that word then it started showing up in books a lot and on my kindle i would like highlight it look definition it means like sort of like unpredictable mysterious if you will um and words like that i learn words like so randomly like even

one of my favorite words acrimonious i learned friends. So like I just pick up words randomly, but it takes a lot for a word to stick with me. Yeah. Unless you start using it all the time. Because then we share, we word share. Yeah. Nefarious, of course. Elk. Classic. That's a big one. Big. Low key. No, but don't feel bad about this and it. And it'll come back. It comes and goes. It's hard. It's a total life change. And also, it's physical and mental. Like, you literally, like, it happens whether or not you start talking baby talk.

And it also happens because you start talking baby talk. So, go easy on yourself, girly swirly. Go easy on me, babely swirly. That's our show. And tomorrow will be our last one of the week. And then next week when we are back, Jackie and I will be together podcasting. So you know what I realized? Such exciting, fun times.

I realized that next week is a short week because it's President's Day on Monday. That's not next week. That's the week after next. President's Day isn't like after the Super Bowl. It's the following week. True. And of course, you know, let's give everyone fair warning.

We will be taking off President's Day. Of course, we respect the presidents. I mean, God bless America, you know? Land that I love. You know? Land that I love. You know? I stand beside her. Yeah. And guide her.

Through the night with the light from above. Yes. I love that song. They're all bops. Also like this land. It's your land. I love that song. They're all bops. Also, Like This Land Is Your Land, I love. All of those songs of the American elk. The elk, yeah. The Star Spangled Banner.

Like the Betsy Ross vibes. Hits. The hits start coming and they don't stop coming. And like chilling. No, and it's like they were written a couple hundred years ago and they still slay the house down boots. A song that I put in that category that's like kind of not and it's modern

and like it has no semblance, but I just consider them all the same type of song is, and I'm proud to be an American where at least I know I'm free. Yeah, the green one, Slayed the house down boots. Also. Like. This land is your land.

This land is my land. That's right. From California. All the way. To the New York Islands. Them islands. From the Redwood Forest. To the Gulf Stream waters. From the redwood forest to the gulf stream waters,

this land was made for you and me. With that, I bid you adieu.
