Starting point is 00:00:00 Good morning, Millennials! Welcome back to The Toast. Happy Wednesday. It is hump day. It is a bright and gorgeous morning. Speaking from a girl who slept a good chunk of time. I'm a new woman. Hey, Jax. Can I introduce you to your new co-host? Oh, I'm so excited, though. I'm gonna miss Turdy Lou. Who do we have here today? It's Turdy Lou!
Starting point is 00:00:23 It's Turdy Shoe. No, no, by the way, yesterday was Turdy loo it's turdy shoe no no by the way yesterday was turdy loo today is turdy loo yesterday was turdy boo and today is turdy woo well i'm so glad to meet turdy woo she seems like an amazing woman and i'm so glad that she doesn't have the same struggles as Turdy Boo. When I tell you how much better I am, like what sleep can do. And, you know, I like hated that I was, I was, yesterday I was walking through life. I don't even remember doing the show. I don't remember what stories.
Starting point is 00:00:56 And I hate that feeling of like feeling like I didn't do a good job on the toast. But so many people enjoyed the anger. I'm, you know, we got good content out of it. Our reels were popping off. I feel like I did my job because that's literally what we do. So I feel good, but I'm ready to dive back in like full attention. I'm excited about the stories. I'm excited about Jax. I can't believe I was sitting here complaining about sleep to a pregnant woman who has a one year old. Like that's me. Lack of self-awareness. That's okay. I did get another morning of waking up with my hatch and then like two minutes later, woke up so it was really amazing that hatch is really something so far let's talk about that has Harry I'm obsessed
Starting point is 00:01:31 like I'm this is definitely the longest I've gone without seeing him like I my blood boiling not okay he's great he's ready for you he just you know play, wants to sing, wants to be entertained. And his favorite entertainer is not here. I am the entertainer. Literally a week from tomorrow, I will see him. I'm coming to your house. But like, I don't even know. I'm going to get no time with him because I land super late. Do you think I could like go in and give him a kiss when I land?
Starting point is 00:02:00 No. No, because like he will wake up. He is the type. And like low keykey you can't kiss a baby in a crib like that crib is so far down it's back-breaking work like I'll have to go see my physical therapist I'm pregnant putting him down like especially when he's like sleeping and I'm trying to like place him it it can't happen no like the one time I tried to put him down recently um I he was like he was sleepy he was like, he was sleepy. He wasn't sleeping.
Starting point is 00:02:26 He was in my arms. I'm like hurled over this crib. My feet are flailing off the side. I like plopped him in. He hit his head and he started crying. It's terrible. I actually always dream like every night when I put him down, I'm like, I need a fucking step stool that's like under the crib. That's under the crib that I could just like pull out
Starting point is 00:02:41 just like one step to make me taller. And then I just like push it back in. That's what you need. Yeah. I think it every night. Actually now that I'm not going pull out just like one step to make me taller. And then I just like push it back in. That's what you need. Yeah. I think it every night. Actually now that I'm not going to order one like right now, cause you know, it has to go with the aesthetics and everything.
Starting point is 00:02:51 So, um, I'll wait a little, a little update from, you know, New York toast headquarters. I got a heating pad for the show and it's kind of gorgeous. It is making me like kind of tired.
Starting point is 00:03:02 Like warmth just makes me tired. Yeah. But it's so nice. Cause you know, I want to sit up straight when we do the toast. I want to have good posture. But that like makes my back hurt. So I'm like here with my heating pad. I'm kind of loving it. I realize that sometimes in the reels I look really like a big oaf because throughout the
Starting point is 00:03:19 episode I slide down into the chair. Like I always start looking really nice. So then when I put when I get my video and I'm like editing it I always think I look really good but like I don't really see the middle where I'm like a puddle yeah so I need to sit up straighter during the toast if I want to like the reels and if I want Gen Z to still like think highly of me oh my god I know like are you starting to consider Gen Z like into your everyday life like what will Gen Z think? No not at all because I've had this success with Gen Z just like being myself and they like me as I am I think if I started pandering to them they would sniff me out in a second. No it's true and that would kind of go
Starting point is 00:03:55 against like your relationship with them because up until this point you've been kind of like telling them the hard truths. But they love hard truths and that's why we hope and that's why I love them. It gives me hope for the future. It does. So I just am going to keep doing my thing. And Gen Z rides for Jackie O. It's a beautiful thing.
Starting point is 00:04:15 My book club met last night. And I've realized what my toxic trait of book club is. Share. I don't want to. You're not going to know what it is. Don't please. Don't start guessing what you think my toxic trait is um I must seriously maybe minimum 10 times per book club meeting like bring up you like I feel like everyone's like my god shut up like either I'm
Starting point is 00:04:37 talking about like what the redheads do or oh Jackie hated that book or Jackie thought we should do this or and they're like I feel like everyone, my God, Jackie's not in this book club. Like, fuck off. Oh my, what book did I hate? Well, not hate, but we were coming up with suggestions for next week and it's Rachel's turn to pick. And she, we like to have like two or three options because it always turns out that somebody
Starting point is 00:04:56 has already read the book. So one of her selections was The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue. And I know that's like a Jackie, I'm like, you guys, Jackie loved. Yeah, it's a Redhead's favorite it was so good I just don't think you're gonna like it did snitch like it yeah we called it the invisible life of snitchy LaRue okay I would read it like I I would read it but we haven't chosen midnight
Starting point is 00:05:16 library and you didn't oh such a bad book I actually really don't think you're gonna like Addie LaRue like okay so like when I vote I'll vote for the other one what is the other one about I don't know but it's they both sounded like decent yeah it's just if you didn't like Midnight Library I don't think you're gonna like Addie LaRue it's a little it's also like magical realism oh my god I oh I have to tell everyone I hate magical realism and it's like throughout history is it famous like throughout history. Is it famous couples throughout history? It's famous Addie throughout history. Got it. Got it.
Starting point is 00:05:48 She's kind of like a solo girly. But that's like my toxic thing. And then you like send pictures of like Harry in the bath. So I was like, guys, Jackie sent pictures of Harry. And of course, everyone like got lit up for Harry. But I just felt like, oh, my God, I wonder how many times I've said Jackie during. Oh, and like two of our book club members are pregnant so well Jackie said like this and you're pregnant too I'm like oh Jackie's also do that
Starting point is 00:06:09 like I was like really being annoying that's so funny I need to come to the next one oh my god they would love okay are you in town no I'm trying to come to town in May okay maybe if you um if it lines up with your trip they would love it and now whatever book you're reading I'll read it too and like we could participate a celebrity at our book club they would oh my god they would freak yeah no and like everyone knows you and like one of the girls Markella my book club like is in your grades I'm always just like I'm trying to keep everyone up to date with like Jackie Tings yeah but also like if not for the redheads whose steps you're walking in like there might not be a
Starting point is 00:06:46 book club so when we first got started like some of our founding members like we were really kind of looking to the redheads for guidance when it came to books and just structure we do Hollywood treatment so you're very much like a court you know cornerstone of the we don't we need a name for our book club oh well what do you, you guys have like a home cooked dinner? Yeah, we always, even though like my turn to host is coming up soon. And like we are going to be ordering in. But it's always like at someone's house. It's always, it's very like Hamish.
Starting point is 00:07:18 Maybe it's like the potluck book club. Yeah, but it's not a potluck because one person cooks. We give one person like all the responsibilities, like the dishes. and I love walking out with like a pile of dishes in the sink I'm like see you next month yeah because that's gonna be you no no I'm ordering it we're using plastic why don't you make Ben cook that could be his punishment I mean if everybody ate Ben's chili like they would I would be they would ask me to host every month oh I understand it's a blessing and a curse yeah you do need to come up with a name yeah I'll think about it I mean I think we should definitely like
Starting point is 00:07:52 the core of the group like a lot of us went to the same high school that's a yellow belly book club I love Jackie okay you guys when we were in high school I had like a core group of friends it was like 10 of us and you know when you're in high school like you have to like do something like to like you know symbolize that you're all in a group of friends and we got these yellow they were so so fucking ugly these big yellow bangles what did they say on them I don't know I think they were from Dylan's candy bar like they were huge thick chunky bright yellow bangles with like red writing on it. But like we loved them because you know, only, you know, the 10 of us had them. And Jackie used to call us the yellow bellies because we wore these yellow bracelets. It was actually hysterical. And so most of the
Starting point is 00:08:34 people in your book club are former yellow bellies or actually no, or their yellow belly adjacent. They're yellow belly adjacent, but only Rachel is a yellow belly. Like Abe was a guy. So he wasn't in the yellow bellies. Margo, I know from college. Raquel was two years older. Like I actually, it's actually not a yellow belly crew. Damn. It would have been the perfect name. It would have, even though like nobody besides you and me knew that you called us the yellow bellies.
Starting point is 00:08:57 Right. But it didn't catch on. But if you just come up with a name for the book club, like that's a good catchy one. Like the group will be like, okay. Yeah. I mean, you just like, if you hadn't brought up yellow bellies haven't thought about that in forever that's so funny but that's like so you you were always being like nickname girly Jackie has always been this like original creator of like you know turdy like it's not surprising that you are who you are I
Starting point is 00:09:19 know I was just talking with my friend Erica because she was asking me like why we call snitch the snitch like where's turd come from and I was I literally had my friend Erica because she was asking me like why we call snitch the snitch. Like where's turd come from? And I literally had to go through every iteration of like where these things came from. And it's ridiculous. It's inexplicable. It really is. And now I've got a snitch, a turd, and a trout. And that's why I see like new trout.
Starting point is 00:09:40 I see new toasters being like can someone explain origin of like snitch or turdy. honest it really doesn't matter just know like I am turdy Margo is snitch Olivia's trout you know yeah and that Margo is not a snitch like she does is she's not called snitch because she will snitch on you Claudia is not a duty hopefully she's not a big log of a duty and Olivia is not a fish and she doesn't like particularly like fish it's not like a you know she likes fish she does but it's that's not why you call her because she's always eating fish no i call her it because one time i was calling her like oliver because her name's olivia like that's no brainer and i got confused and i thought oliver twist the orphan i thought his name was oliver trout so I said Oliver Trout is something no from the OC
Starting point is 00:10:26 what's his last name okay no okay hold on Oliver from the OC is Oliver T Oliver from the OC is Trask but who is Oliver Trout sister is Oliver Trout okay wait like no like Oliver Trout is not a thing right I mean actually Oliver Trout on my LinkedIn is a sales associate at Tuckahoe Bike Shop. But other than that. No, so I thought it was Oliver Trout, the orphan. So I was like calling her Oliver Trout. And then I called her Trout. And it wasn't until I was already calling her Trout that I realized it's Oliver Twist.
Starting point is 00:11:01 That's so funny. Maybe Oliver Twist was asking, may I have some more, please? Maybe he was asking for Tr have some more please maybe he was asking for trout maybe probably not that was probably like porridge it's always porridge sludge mystery well it's wednesday which is such a good day here because we're always in high spirits we're halfway through the week we've hopefully either just come from humping someone we love or we're going to hump someone we love. And we have Dear Toasters, our weekly advice segment, which is just one of my favorite
Starting point is 00:11:29 parts of the week. We've got three really good submissions and we're coming off of a high because last night Jackie and I did a live podcast episode, which we've been doing once a month on our Patreon. I thought last night was, we didn't even talk about it. We never got to recap because I ran to book club. Yeah. We, I thought it was one of our best one yet.
Starting point is 00:11:44 We were so funny. We were so funny. We were so funny. It's always so good. And the time really flies. It's an hour long live show. There's so much audience participation. We have like this outline that we always actually wind up getting through, but we just go on a million tangents and it's so much fun.
Starting point is 00:11:58 We just get to talk about like everything. And I think last night was one of our most highly attended events. I know there was like,000 people watching live. And then when I got home, 7,000 people had already watched it. Wow. So people were loving it. If you missed it, you can still watch it. And if you want to join live next month, just become a Patreon member and you'll get all
Starting point is 00:12:20 the links and everything sent straight to your Patreon app or your email, whatever it is. So that's patreon.com slash toast. That was fun. I had a good time. Yeah, I had a good time too. That was Freaking Fred, our virtual live show that we do once a month. Live show. It's virtual live show.
Starting point is 00:12:37 It's virtual live. Wait, I got one. Live show. It's Trini Lou live show with Jackson Claude. So good. So good. Okay, so let's get into everything because we have a lot to do today. A lot.
Starting point is 00:12:56 And we have good stories. I'm really excited about them. Yes. I actually chose like three of them because I'm like so like on the pulse of pop culture. You're so in the know. So in the know. Without further ado, here are the Fast-paced stories that you need to know. And today's episode is brought to you by Droplet.
Starting point is 00:13:10 When we learned that 90% of your skincare goes to waste because it gets wiped or sweated off before absorbing to your skin, we were shook to say the least. That's why we're so excited to introduce you to the new product that we've been loving, the Droplet. Their award-winning handheld device transforms your serums into a high-velocity micro-mist that absorbs into the skin 20 times deeper than topicals. The device pairs with the Droplet app to unleash the most powerful, deeply penetrating results, and it lets you personalize your skincare routine
Starting point is 00:13:37 with targeted treatment modes. Like, if you do your skincare and then get into bed and you lay on the side of your face and you pull your face off your pillow, you will literally feel your skincare, like, coming off and, like, laying on your pillow, and then you have, like, lay on the side of your face and you pull your face off your pillow, you will literally feel your skincare like coming off and like laying on your pillow and then you have like dirty pillows you have to wash. You just have more jobs.
Starting point is 00:13:51 Choose the, here's how it works. You'll choose the serum that best meets your skincare needs and then you'll just start misting. Droplet is really fun. It's easy to use and it delivers powerful treatments in under 60 seconds, morning, noon, and night, right from the comfort of your own home. It feels like a mist,
Starting point is 00:14:03 but it offers an injectable alternative without needles, pain, or recovery. It is the ultimate self-care right from the comfort of your own home. It feels like a mist, but it offers an injectable alternative. Without needles, pain, or recovery, it is the ultimate self-care experience from the comfort of your home. The device works with formulation capsules, basically like an espresso pot or like when you're making coffee. So you can use it to infuse the treatments that are right for you into your skin, not just onto your skin. So it's really fun to do. It actually makes a lot of sense. Like I've always felt like right before bed doing your skincare and then getting into bed and I'm a very rough sleeper. I'm like, how is this actually working? And when I use like skincare with tanning, I always know that so much of my skincare is kind of like peeled off or not absorbed because I have patches all over my skin.
Starting point is 00:14:40 So this is a really great device to make sure you're really penetrating your skin with all of your skincare. For a limited time, listeners can get 50% off your Droplet device at droplet.io and use code toast. That's D-R-O-P-L-E-T-T-E.io code toast. Today's episode is also brought to you by Mejuri.

Starting point is 00:15:22 diamond, recycled 14 karat solid gold pieces that you can sweat, shower, and sleep in. That's what I love about Mejuri. It's like I'm the type of person, I leave my jewelry on, like my core jewelry that I wear every day, and to have to take off necklaces and rings before you get in the shower or after you wear them for a long time because they like weirdly turn your skin green. It's so annoying. It's another chore. Mejuri jewelry is so well made. It's so beautiful. It will not turn your skin green and you can shower in it because it's made really well.

Starting point is 00:16:20 And they really have aged very well. It's not like I feel like a lot of jewelry companies, you have to start recycling your jewelry. Like it doesn't last more than a few months. But Mejuri is on top of it. Great. Thank you so much. I'm right on top of that, Rose.
Starting point is 00:16:33 Our first story, Giselle is on the cover of Vanity Fair looking gorgeous and talking about her divorce. So the article itself, I started to read it and it's just like too verbose about how she like picks up an injured baby bird and like it was just woof. That is like that scene in Something Borrowed where Steve Howey, the guy who plays, I think his name is Marshall. He like picks up the ladies and he always tells them about, you know, this one time he really, he grew up an empath and he saw this injured bird and it's like this recycled, it's like such a corny thing people say.
Starting point is 00:17:09 Like we get it, you're sensitive. Like there are other ways of showing that. Just listen to this paragraph. Wen Chin has just discovered the unmoving robin nestled on a white couch on her terrace. A serendipitous landing place with a panoramic vista of the beach below.
Starting point is 00:17:24 Looking bereft, she scoops the bird up with the ease of a Disney princess, taking care with its mangled claw. Sounds like she wrote this herself. Just sounds like this person is in the wrong line of work because we want the tea on Giselle, not the bird's wing. But she also just did another cover, and it feels like both of them are like, Giselle, like everything you need to know. And it's like, well, why wasn't it in the first one?
Starting point is 00:17:50 Well, the other cover was Italian Vogue. Vogue. And this is much more like Giselle stripped down. And she's talking about her divorce. And she's debunking the rumor that it was about football. Like it was not about the football she said um she told Vanity Fair in a bombshell April 2023 cover story published on Wednesday that the former couple split was much bigger than just football when asked whether she
Starting point is 00:18:17 gave Tom an ultimatum their marriage or his job she called the notion very hurtful and the craziest thing she's ever heard oh Oh, okay. Yeah. She said she's always cheered for her now ex who retired in 2021 and then walked back on his decision. She said, quote, if there's one person I want to be the happiest in the world, it's him. Believe me. I want him to achieve and to conquer. I want all his dreams to come true. Clarifying that she is not somebody who is against football.
Starting point is 00:18:46 She also claimed that politics never made her pull the plug on their marriage. She called successful relationships a dance and a balance, saying, when I was 26 years old and he was 29 years old, we met, we wanted a family, we wanted things together. As time goes by, we realize that we just wanted different things. She noted that their decision doesn't mean that they don't love each other. It just means that in order for you to be authentic and truly live the life that you want to live, you have to have somebody who can meet you in the middle.
Starting point is 00:19:11 Politics? What is that? I never heard that. And are either one of them extremely political? Not that I know of, but hers just saying that thing at the end, like about you have to have someone who will meet you in the middle, like it does fan those flames of like he didn't meet her in the middle because he chose football no I know I don't think she's necessarily lying because maybe it wasn't about football but like the you know she could have had a problem with his priorities meaning you know choosing to go back after he retired so it's not it's not like she's mad about football but she's mad about like you know him not putting the family first like it's not like she's mad about football, but she's mad about him not putting the family first.
Starting point is 00:19:45 It's not the football thing. It's always, you know, it's what we're always talking about. It's not the dishes in the sink. It's the lack of respect. Yeah. Yeah. So I feel like she could be telling the truth. I think she is telling the truth,
Starting point is 00:19:57 and especially when she calls it the craziest thing that she's ever heard. It is pretty extreme. But I'm sure also, like, if he was choosing football in some areas like he was probably oftentimes making choices that weren't family centric though he does seem like a family man yeah and Bridget Moynihan has always spoken very highly of him as like a father and a family man so maybe it's not that but maybe it's like in choosing football like he's choosing living in Tampa and like that's not the best thing for their family because she lives in Costa Rica now with full time yeah that's where she is she's also seen in Miami sometimes and they said she's dating some like businessman billionaire beau oh thank
Starting point is 00:20:36 god somebody's finally taking our advice and I think his name is Mr. Soffer oh my god okay so I'm so glad you brought that up. So his name is Jeffrey Soffer. And if you live in Miami, you know that name. He owns the Fountain Blue Hotel. Like he's a big, big developer. And Ben actually has an uncle named Jeffrey Soffer. But it's not him. No, no. And when Ben, like, so if you, if you grew up like in like a, the Jewish scene, like everybody went to Miami for Passover. It like the hot spot during high school like you would see everyone you know and Ben used to stay at the Fountain Blue and he used to get like crazy special treatment because his last name was Soffer but there's quite and spelled the exact same way there's literally no relation Ben was
Starting point is 00:21:17 like so young able to get every so the Fountain Blue Hotel has the club live which is like one of the biggest clubs in all of Miami Ben used to be able to get all these kids in. He's like, hi, I'm Ben Soffer. My dad is Bruce. And I actually think the other Jeffrey Soffer has a brother named Bruce and Ben's dad Bruce has a brother named Jeffrey. Like it's crazy. There was like, and what I tell you,
Starting point is 00:21:34 there's literally no relation, but there were so many like similarities. Eventually the jig read up, but Ben was running this scam for like five years during Passover time in Miami. And he was like the coolest kid on the block what if all this time like we thought Ben has the Ben effect but it's really just people thinking he's related to Jeffrey Soffer I don't think that's it what I think it is is like that
Starting point is 00:21:57 those formative years in Miami where Ben was kind of treated special for who they thought he was, kind of gave Ben the drive and the connections, thus resulting in what we now know as the Ben effect. Do you think it also resulted in the entitlement that led him to use a flashlight at 4.30 a.m. and leave an open can of beans for his wife for weeks on end? I do. Because maybe when he used to go to the fountain, like someone put away his beans. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:27 Jackie, nothing in life is an accident. You know, we're all like a connect. Everything, everyone's life is a connection, a series of moments. And so Ben is the man and the person that he is because of those formative years spent as Jeffrey Soffer's quote unquote nephew. Jeffrey Soffer's ward.
Starting point is 00:22:45 Right. So everything we know about Ben is a direct result of kind of the monster he was made into in Miami in those early 2000s. Wow. How are you and Ben? Have you forgiven him, by the way? So funny.
Starting point is 00:22:59 I was, I think, I don't know if I said this. Oh, I think I said this on Breaking Bread last night. Like I, for the last week, I feel like I've come on here and like dragged Ben between the chili the flashlight Ben's offer celebrity like every episode our titles have all been about Ben you would never know like at home I'm such a doting wife and Ben's been traveling a lot so like I'm not gonna like be mad at him still while he's traveling and like I miss him and I love him I just like love to use him for content and fodder and everything is true but I'm not I'm not mad even though this morning we facetimed and he was like how are you feeling I'm like I'm like a to use him for content and fodder and everything is true. But I'm not, I'm not mad. Even though this morning we FaceTimed and he was like, how are you feeling?
Starting point is 00:23:27 I'm like, I'm like a lot better since Flashlight Gate. Yeah. But I'm not, I'm not actually mad. Got it. Okay, that's good. That's surprising though. Yeah, no, I know. Because I can hold a grudge with the best of them.
Starting point is 00:23:38 Yeah. But Ben, of all the people in my life. You're really like so. Soft. You're so soft with Ben. It's crazy. Because like we know you're really like so. Soft. You're so soft with Ben. It's crazy. Yeah. Because like we know you as this tough bitch.
Starting point is 00:23:49 Yep. And if anyone else pulled half the shit Ben has pulled, even in the last like year. Even the last 24 hours. I wouldn't talk to them. Yeah. No, you're real softy when it comes to Ben. That's a fun fact about Turdy Lou that you guys would never expect. And like every time I hear it, I'm shocked.
Starting point is 00:24:05 Like when she said like, oh no, Ben and I were on the phone like kiki-ing, I miss him. I was like, so you don't hate him? No, I know it's shocking. But like I low-key love him. Like and I, you know. That's so sweet. It's the truth. Yeah, but he is great for content.
Starting point is 00:24:22 Though I did hear he was going to sue the toast for defamation. Good. He should. First of all, we'll get so much press and he'll lose because nothing I said was a lie. In order to, you know, win a defamation case, which is extremely difficult, you have to prove that the person was lying. I have photo evidence of the beans. I have yesterday's episode to prove I was clearly up at 430.
Starting point is 00:24:44 Clearly. No lies were told. Damn. Okay. Well, speaking of court cases, our next story. Oh. Gwyneth Paltrow is in Utah at court for the first day of a civil trial brought against her over by a retired optometrist, Terry Sanderson,
Starting point is 00:25:06 over a ski accident in 2016. Is optometrist eyes? I think so, yeah. I just saw like a funny TikTok of like the world's leading optometrist doing a panel about, you know, the benefits of laser eye surgery or LASIK. And every single one of them was wearing glasses. Stop. Yeah, like well why didn't you get it or maybe they did get it but it does start to dwindle the effects dwindle after many many years I just thought it was interesting that's funny ever since dope sick I'm like hella sus yeah but though I've heard laser eye surgery
Starting point is 00:25:42 is just miraculous for those who need it like I yeah I'm privileged in the sense I've never known when it's like to like wake up and not out and have to reach for my classes me too and like clatter around yeah yeah or like have to put contacts in my eyes every single day but for the people who have done the surgery like Dana just did it like two years ago. Oh my God. She doesn't, she's still talking about it.
Starting point is 00:26:07 It's the best thing she ever did in her whole life. It's literally life changing. Life changing. I think snitch wants to do it. I think Olivia should do it too. I think Olivia should do it too. Olivia's eyes are really bad. Olivia has been like,
Starting point is 00:26:16 you know, clattering for her glasses. Like since she was a young in, since we were quite literally like six. Yeah. She did start wearing contacts really early in life and she's kind of been a contact queen. But it's time to level up.
Starting point is 00:26:28 It's time to level up. That's a good birthday gift for somebody like to schedule them and like get them LASIK eye surgery. Yeah. Kylie got it recently. Her and Stas. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. They were so excited.
Starting point is 00:26:40 Yeah. Okay. Anyways, Gwyneth is on trial and she will be testifying as will her husband, Brad Falchuk, and both of her kids, Apple and Moses, in this ski accident trial. So basically this man, they were all skiing in Deer Valley Resort in February 2016. There was a ski collision between Gwyneth and the optometrist. The optometrist says that it was a hit and run that Gwyneth got him from behind,
Starting point is 00:27:05 knocked him out, and he suffered severe injuries, and she kept on skiing. Then Gwyneth was with a ski instructor. The ski instructor filed a report saying that it wasn't Gwyneth's fault. He reported the accident. But the optometrist is saying it's a false report, and he was suing Gwyneth for $.1 million dollars in damages you know brain trauma physical stuff you know quality of life never going to be the same again Gwyneth is maintaining that one this guy caused the accident and two he's doing this extorting her fame and her wealth
Starting point is 00:27:38 right etc can I ask you a question though because I don ski. And so I don't know what the legalities are or what, like, you know, what are the rules, but let's say even it was her fault. Like she, you know, didn't see him and knocked into him. Is that not just like an occupational hazard of skiing? Like we're all, that's why I don't ski. I'm always hearing about like crazy skiing accidents. Like, isn't that just like you chose to get on a mountain? Like, isn't that just like you chose to get on a mountain like isn't that just like a a potential hazard of being a skier yeah but like if someone does injure you you do have the right to sue them but also it's the hit and run aspect that she like hit him he was injured and she didn't wait for help or try and help him it's the same thing with you know you could get into a car accident it's like if you hit and run like it's a much bigger crime than an accident oh that's true okay but also if she did severely injure him wouldn't she have been injured too like you can't
Starting point is 00:28:32 just like if you knock into someone that's you're both being it could go either way like you could knock someone over they have a bad fall and you manage to catch yourself okay there's all different variations of what could happen so Gwyneth will be taking the stand during the trial and her attorney said in opening statements that Brad Falchuk will and her kids who were 9 and 11 at the time they were on a family ski trip like Gwyneth is really just like putting everything behind maintaining her innocence and that this man is like some extortionist I mean I have to assume she probably has a decent case because this is so public and she has so much money like it might be you know more less less worry for her
Starting point is 00:29:13 to have just paid this guy all those years ago you know yeah also I'm pretty sure the judge capped it at 300,000 for even if he wins like it's not going to be three million dollars so she would have just settled with him out of court if she was really in the wrong. Yeah, but I also, I mean, I don't know, Gwyneth, and I feel like I'm basing- She's spending more on lawyers than $300,000. Yeah, I'm basing this off of like her character and the politician,
Starting point is 00:29:33 but I really feel like if she collided with someone, like she would stop and help them. Let me tell you how one of my- Also, a ski instructor would, that is their job is to patrol the slopes. Like they were on a beginner's course. you don't just like leave someone there of course there could be corruption the ski instructors protecting Gwyneth but like it's a ski accident let me tell you how one of my ever since I met Gwyneth Paltrow like one of my missions in life is to let people
Starting point is 00:30:00 know like how wrong they are about her. She is quite literally the nicest woman you've ever met in your life. She's so not what you think. And I feel like of all celebrities, like she has this crazy image of like what people think about her. Just given the fact that she's like a nepo baby, she has this like wellness empire that's like kind of out of touch. Like it's not relatable to like a lot of people. And I think people really feel like they know her. And when I first met her and I was around her and her kids, I was like shook at the woman in front of me. Like she reminded me so much of like just a mom. She was like obsessed with her kids, like kissing.
Starting point is 00:30:32 It was just, she was so normal. She was so loving. She was so interested in what other people were saying. When you meet celebrities, it's always like no one else is talking. It's just them, them, them, them, them, them. And it's actually kind of boring to be around celebrities because like I want to talk about myself. She was asking so many questions about like what I do. Like everyone at the table, she, them, them, them, them. And it's actually kind of boring to be around celebrities because like, I want to talk about myself. She was asking so many questions about like what I do,
Starting point is 00:30:47 like everyone at the table. She was like, what is your relationship like? Like she was so gracious and so loving. And I've just really always felt like she was so misunderstood. And I think in recent years, like people have definitely gotten to know her a little bit better, but I still feel like people really don't know her. And you're right. Like her character is not that character of someone who would literally assault someone, even by accident, and then move on. She's like an empath. She has compassion.
Starting point is 00:31:10 Like she's a mother. She would never like, and that's just my own. I have no proof of this. And I'm definitely biased because I feel like I really. Like you've met Gwyneth, but you haven't met Terry Sanderson. Right. So I'm just saying based on my own. And I feel like everyone in this life should
Starting point is 00:31:25 make judgments based on their own experience with people not what they think or what they read I really believe she's like a a wonderful person that's really really nice to hear and I also feel like if she were in part responsible for this and it's more of what he said than what she said she would not be putting her children on the stand to testify in her defense especially when they were nine and eleven it's like remember that thing that happened when you were nine can you go and lie about it under oath for me no a hundred percent especially when her kids up until this point are very private like they don't have like you know crazy social media followings they're not apple has started now that she's like i think 16 or 17 she started to like maybe go to events but they're not like crazy public figures yeah
Starting point is 00:32:09 yeah I also had seen a headline I knew I should have opened the tab for this story because I was going to reference it that in discovery I guess it's come out that the guy texted his daughter after the collision saying like I'm going to be Oh. But I need to find it because I only saw the headline. It was on the Daily Mail. And now, of course, I can't. Oh. Well, he wasn't wrong. He is famous now.
Starting point is 00:32:33 Oh, wait. OK. A screener and a Facebook status saying I'm famous. Oh. That's that's not good. That's a negative in his column. Yeah. Where's the Facebook status? I don't know. That's a negative in his column. Yeah. Where's the Facebook status?
Starting point is 00:32:47 I don't know. That's a negative in his column for sure. But then there's also a witness who was like the witness on the slopes who said it was Gwyneth's fault. This is just a classic case, literally, of he said, she said. It is.
Starting point is 00:32:58 And so the court shall decide. But I also feel like there are companies that can do like mock collisions based on you know the slope where he was found velocity her weight his weight and see like are the injuries sustained that by him are they do they coincide with his tale of things or not I'm sure Gwyneth's people have you know the the right teams putting together those sort of mock accident things. Yeah. This is interesting and so of course people on the internet are now saying that last week Gwyneth's drama with her podcast was very intentional. She put that out
Starting point is 00:33:38 so people would talk about that as opposed to this which quite literally makes no sense. I hate that's how like I know people don't understand like celebrity culture because they're always saying like the Kardashians put this out so we're not talking about that when has that ever stopped people on the internet from talking about something it's so dumb and why would Gwyneth put herself intentionally in a negative light knowing this thing is coming up would it be like well she's obviously a bad person look at this pot like right no it wasn't like that was good press and it made you feel more warmly towards Gwyneth if anything it's like if she were going to a soup kitchen last week I'd be like oh well that's clearly intentional that's clearly you know to nullify the effects of what we're about to see I hate when people say
Starting point is 00:34:23 that and sometimes that is what happens and I agree but people have just like taken that notion so far they're always saying that we're like maybe they're putting this out to distract us from that and it's like that stuff actually happens but the way you're saying it that makes no sense why would when like the people saying it for the Gwyneth thing is quite literally the dumbest thing. Yeah. That's not how it works. No that's not how any of this works. Literally. Okay, well, are you ready for our next story? Yeah. Some happy couple news.
Starting point is 00:34:54 Dylan Sprouse is engaged to Barbara Palvin after five years of dating. I'm obsessed with these two. Yeah, I forgot. I was worried for a second that they weren't still together because I hadn't heard of them in so long. But that's a good sign. It is, it is. But usually, you know usually you see pics. And they are also very aesthetic.
Starting point is 00:35:07 So stuff comes up like an explore page. I don't follow either of them. And he's like a photographer. Yeah. Yeah. They're always just like doing tings. But he popped the question to Barbara Palvin. His longtime girlfriend.
Starting point is 00:35:19 A source told Entertainment Tonight on Tuesday. That Dylan and Barbara are engaged. They have been showing off her ring to people. And are so happy. They're always very in love with one another and by each other's sides, but they're even happier than usual. They can't wait to start this next chapter together. I like love these two as a couple. Ever since they started, I have stand. They're so well matched and I never would have even like, how did these two even, you know, end up in the same room? Like it it's so random but they're so good looking Zach what's his name Zach I'm saying Zach and Cody
Starting point is 00:35:49 Dylan is so handsome like he really grew up to be such a handsome young man she is so next level like perfection like I honestly if I could look like anyone she's definitely on like my top 10 list of people I would want to look like. And they're so in love. They're so low key. They've been together for so long. I was, I was like genuinely happy for them when I heard this news. Yeah, me too. Nothing but good news.
Starting point is 00:36:15 Nothing but good, nice things to say. So the conversation's over. The story, the story is short. But it's also so weird when you think about how different the Sprouse brothers ended up in their careers because you would have thought like you know with with Riverdale and then that really was like this resurgence of Cole Sprouse like if anything like Cole was out here winning because Zach doesn't really act um he's much more located like the artist world beverage company
Starting point is 00:36:38 right he's not as currently you know famous in the typical sense. But he stays winning too. Yeah. And I love it. I really do. I'm so, and I feel like his relationship with Barbara, people are obsessed with. So he's like kind of stayed in, you know, in terms of relevance in the limelight because of that. And when she was at the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, he was there. Like, it was just so cute.
Starting point is 00:36:59 So cute. And then it also just reminded me, we never got to talk about Cole Sprouse on Call Her Daddy. I didn't watch the interview, but I saw the highlights and the smoking. The cigarette. The cigarette. Honestly, I never thought much about Cole Sprouse, like ever.
Starting point is 00:37:16 And having seen just even the few clips from his interview, I know for a fact, like we would not like each other, like on a personal level. For a fact. He was giving cringe. I mean like smoking inside is something you have to be extremely cool to do. And he's not cool in that way. And after the interview he's probably less cool than I thought he was.
Starting point is 00:37:34 Just even how he holds the cigarette. Like it was just it was cringe. It was giving cringe. I would have had more respect for him if he started to vape honestly. And also just the way that he talks. He's so serious. He's so verbose. Like he's obviously very smart and educated. And I think that if you can he talks, he's so serious. He's so verbose. Like he's
Starting point is 00:37:45 obviously very smart and educated. And I think that if you can sit through what he's trying to say, he's probably saying something and making a point, but it is word salad, but it's big word salad. Big words in the salad. I mean, I went to, I went to NYU at the same time as Dylan and Cole. They're very well educated. Yeah. But you don't sound like that, Turdy Lou. Why not? Not at all. It's because I was trying to get like famous on instagram throughout college well uh cole was actually studying i remember people used to like know a lot about them because they were like the celebrities on campus he was studying archaeology like he's very uh he's like a curious person yeah which is good and i do you feel like that's really not something that you can fake yeah or. Or you can, but like, he didn't sound like dumb.
Starting point is 00:38:25 He just sounded pompous. Pompous and like condescending. Yeah. And it's just like, he is relatively young. Like you don't have all the answers, but you sound like someone who does. Oh my God. That's exactly what it was.
Starting point is 00:38:43 It was cringe. Like the whole thing was really cringe, especially the smoking. Yeah. It's like like rude I think she like films in her house like it's it's rude it's not her house but it's like a house and that's and then she has a studio yeah and like those chairs are buccal like they absorb they absorb totally but I think they smoke pot in there sometimes too oh you're right but pot really is different like cigarette smells like and and the fumes like they get into the walls I'm always seeing people on TikTok clean like these people who are like
Starting point is 00:39:09 expert cleaners going into homes of people who have passed away who smoked in their house for 30 years and like the black shit that comes out of people's like walls and air vents is like nothing you've ever seen in your life furniture it really it's like tar yeah now I'm just trying to think about like smoking on podcasts like on Joe Rogan they smoke cigars a lot but that's a studio maybe they have proper ventilation it doesn't yeah they smoke pot and like Joe is smoking too so it's it's okay I'm sure he was like she's not gonna say no I don't know if anyone I've not seen the Joe Rogan episode where someone was smoking a cigarette but I've not watched even close like I am sure 100 somebody has they probably have to
Starting point is 00:39:45 have people come in and clean those curtains and the carpets because that shit gets into fabric yeah and then I'm sure there's people who like jewel which is I think it doesn't leave any after effects on furniture fine but just like people like might make fun of you depending on how you look yes but I think I would make more fun of, at least in the Cole situation, it was so uncool in terms of like aesthetic. He should have vaped. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:14 But I guess if you're a person who interviews a lot of celebrities, it would behoove you to have like a stock. If I was Alex Cooper, like, you know, Joe Rogan and I had like a celebrity coming into my studio every week and I would have probably like a stockpile of pot, of cigarettes, of vapes,es of cigars like and liquor obviously like for whatever
Starting point is 00:40:30 anybody needs because everybody is always if you really want to get them comfortable and do like hours long they do yeah they do so yeah that was that was funny that was cringe um are you ready for our next story yeah sofia coppola's daughter Romy is going viral because she was grounded for trying to charter a helicopter Nepo babies they're just like us the eldest daughter of acclaimed filmmaker Sophia Coppola 16 year old Romy just revealed in a totally unrelatable yet hilarious TikTok that she was grounded for attempting to rent a chopper using her musician father's credit card. She was taking the chopper, she said,
Starting point is 00:41:08 because she wanted to go have dinner with her camp friend. Yeah, I saw. And so she was grounded for such. So the video she like is talking in fast forward mode and she says, make a vodka sauce with pasta with me because I'm grounded because I tried to charter a helicopter from New York to Maryland on my dad's credit card because I wanted to have dinner with my camp friend. She goes on to disclose that she didn't know the difference between garlic and an onion. So she had
Starting point is 00:41:33 to Google images of onions on her phone. She also said she's going to do this and she's already grounded. And her parents' biggest rule is like, she's not allowed to have any public social media platforms, but she didn't think she would be getting famous from this TikTok right she's like no one's gonna care um she I thought that was interesting that like having uh no public social media is like a rule in her house and she said it was because her parents don't want her to be a nepo baby even though her mother is quite literally the definition of a nepo baby well that's so maybe that's exactly why she didn't want that for her daughter I guess but like she's reaping the benefits why can't Ro me yeah but also she's 16 like that is really young yeah and because she is of note and her parents are of note like
Starting point is 00:42:13 everything she does is going to be looked at so critically literally she puts out look at this and we have a microscope and it's full of tea and like the girl doesn't even know like the gems that she's spewing she's just like lives on a different planet. I know. And for me, I know people had a lot of takeaways from this. But like for me, I'm so curious what camp she goes to. Oh my God, that's funny. If anybody has any insight, just DM me. I won't share it because that's fucking weird.
Starting point is 00:42:34 But I'm just like fucking curious. Yeah, but now she's 16. She's not in camp anymore. She would be like waiting to become a counselor. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But she still has camp friends. I was just curious. Like, you know, back in the day, there was like like a camp scene we went to a few different camps everybody knew of
Starting point is 00:42:47 the different camps so I'm just curious now like where are the cool kids going to camp that's what I want to know yeah uh so the tiktok has been deleted for Sofia Coppola's daughter Romy the tiktok has deleted, but it's too late. She's kind of a star. She's also gorgeous, of course. Gorgeous, gorgeous. And we got a little insight into her babysitter. Did you see?
Starting point is 00:43:12 Her babysitter's boyfriend? Boyfriend, yeah. She said, this is Ari or whatever, my babysitter's boyfriend, which I thought was interesting. Like, I guess you have a babysitter when you're 16. It's like, no, you babysit when you're 16. Right.
Starting point is 00:43:26 Maybe it was just like her. I think babysitter is probably like an affectionate term that she uses for whoever is the person who's like home with her. But honestly, maybe she's like a problematic child. She's already grounded. I mean, chartering a helicopter by yourself. She's not the type of 16 year old who you would leave alone, I guess. Yeah. Some 16-year-olds are like really responsible and very, you know, they have jobs.
Starting point is 00:43:52 Maybe she's just not one of those. Yeah. It's just like a completely funny TikTok. It's almost like if Sofia Coppola directed a TikTok video. A hundred percent. Even the babysitter's boyfriend, he talked about the helicopter fiasco because it's a feminine fiasco. Oh, by the way.
Starting point is 00:44:14 Because it's women's history, mom. I also now know something I didn't know, which is that Sofia Coppola is married to the lead singer of Phoenix. Cool. I didn't know that. But is that her dad? Yeah. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:44:29 That's nice. I know. That's really nice. Yeah, she holds up the Grammy in the video too. Right, which I guess is from her dad. Yeah. Does her mom have any Oscars? I don't think so.
Starting point is 00:44:39 I don't. No, no, no. No. Bling Ring wasn't winning any Oscars? No. And like not that many female directors have ever won Oscars. Oh, that's true. It's a very short list and we wouldn't know if she was on it.
Starting point is 00:44:50 Yeah, you're right. So that's what's going on with Romy. I hope that her grounding ends soon, but I'm imagining that it just got extended. Oh, beyond. They're freaking. The thing is, so the internet, shockingly, has received this video really well. Like people are kind of obsessed. So it's not like she tarnished the family name true but she did break the family rules no she broke her parents rules like no matter who you are like that gets
Starting point is 00:45:13 you grounded yeah but like if she broke the rules and like did something crazy scandalous and like got herself in trouble and photographed at a club like tarnished the family name or like did this video and it was like so poorly received. And it was like this girl. Like, yeah, I think it would be even worse for Miss. You're right. You're right. If anything, it's it's giving people a fondness towards the Coppola crew. It is.
Starting point is 00:45:35 It's cute. It's cute. Are you ready for our fifth and final story? Someone who is not acting cutely. Oh, Nick Lachey has been ordered to attend anger management classes and alcoholics anonymous meetings nearly a year after he accosted a female photographer who was snapping pictures from her car veteran celebrity photographer i thought you were gonna say just like a man on the street like no a popper he you know was aggressive with a paparazzi female. Paparazzi.
Starting point is 00:46:05 Paparazzi. A lot of celebrities have been there. He was drunk and I guess she pressed charges and he didn't get any... Jail time. Jail time, but he has to go to anger management and AA in exchange. Also, the photographer said that Nick still hasn't apologized until this day.
Starting point is 00:46:21 Nick hasn't taken any responsibility. He's justified it. He thought this was done, but it's not done I mean to me this is so different than like you know it's not like this woman was doing nothing to him like paparazzi is very invasive it's really bad for a lot of people's mental health so it wasn't like completely one-sided of course you should never physically hurt anyone especially a woman but um me, this really doesn't tarnish my image of Nick Lachey. Like to me, this is just he had a bad day. And like it's a part of being a celebrity.
Starting point is 00:46:52 It's like getting mad at a paparazzi. Yeah. The video shows him approaching the paparazzi's car and reaching through the window, attempting to snatch her phone and spewing profanities. She said that like she rolled up her window really quickly which she was relieved that she did otherwise he would have knocked me out no doubt about it okay well we have literally no proof of that um sounds like she actually didn't get assaulted she just got her phone snatched which is hella dramatic to take to court and if now knowing what i know team nick whoa that's not
Starting point is 00:47:23 what i thought you were gonna say paparazzis are always out here like baiting people and then playing the victim yeah wow like no that this is not uh she was not assaulted getting her phone snatched it's wrong and saying like what would he have done window right you know and then the window i don't know what he would have done well neither do we because you closed the window so case closed yeah but it did sound like he got an arm in there and he didn't knock you out he just wanted the the phone like drama drama for what oh my god i really was not expecting us to be defending nick lachey today why i like nick lachey you do i thought it was gonna be like Jessica was right no he's trash
Starting point is 00:48:07 I have moved on like I have moved on from Nick and Jess I think they both have two I think they were so young in her book like she really dragged him to filth and like embarrassed him and you know what he was human he was young he was famous and then he ended up marrying someone who became more famous than him and he got jealous because he had a big ego because he was young like I don't think he's a bad person I really don't okay you don't think he's an angry person who needs anger management I really don't like and I think the proof is in the life he has with Vanessa Lachey like it was really unfortunate it was unfortunate the timing because we were all standing him and Jess, but like he is a family man. He's a loyal husband.
Starting point is 00:48:48 He works hard. He's maintained a really nice career. Love is blind is the best thing that ever happened to him. But like, I don't know. How can I really be mad at Nick Lachey for real? And I feel like him and Jessica both publicly said that they like squashed it. They sent baby gifts. And then Vanessa was like, I never got a gift.
Starting point is 00:49:02 But like, you know what I mean? Like, I feel like it's good. Okay. Yeah. No, I agree. I do agree with everything you said I don't harbor even though you know I stan Jessica she's my birthday twin I don't harbor any hate in my heart for Nick Lachey and that's because I believe that Jessica doesn't they're both so happy and successful and in love yeah it was the best thing for them they were so young yeah and Jessica's like more happy and successful and in love. Yeah. It was the best thing for them. They were so young. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:26 And Jessica's like more happy and more successful. So that's good. Definitely more successful. You know, you can't measure happiness. No. So those are the Fast Five stories. And now for Dear Toasters. I'm so excited.

Getting to know yourself can be a lifelong process, especially because we're always growing and changing. Therapy is all about deepening your self-awareness and understanding because sometimes we don't know what we want or why we react the way we do until we talk through things. BetterHelp connects you with a licensed therapist who can take you on a journey of self-discovery from wherever you are. So if you're thinking of starting therapy, give BetterHelp a try.

Starting point is 00:51:44 designed to be convenient, flexible, and suited to your schedule. Just fill out the brief questionnaire and get matched with a licensed therapist and switch therapists anytime for no additional charge. So there's so many benefits from therapy. And I think one of the hardest parts about therapy is finding the right therapist who matches with you. And it can be so discouraging to make the appointment, sit in the waiting room, go to the office, and then find out that it's not a match.
Starting point is 00:52:06 And BetterHelp being done all exclusively online makes it so easy to like find the right person for you. And then it's just so much more convenient for doing it from your phone. You can chat, you can video, you can call, you can text. It makes it that much more accessible. And I feel like that questionnaire that you fill out makes it really effective in finding you a therapist who you're going to vibe with from the start.

You know, sometimes we give tough love.
Starting point is 00:53:07 Sometimes it's the things you don't want to hear. But sometimes it's the thing you need to hear. All right. Good morning, Jackson and Claude. I have a dilemma and I need your advice. My husband and I have one car and he drops me off at work. I use the Alexa alarm that gradually wakes me up because waking up has always been difficult for me. Recently, my husband has been turning my alarm off without my knowledge and blames me for making us late.
Starting point is 00:53:30 He doesn't wake me up after he's turned off the alarm or anything while he's like in the shower. He just expects me to wake up magically. I told him I need this type of alarm in order to wake up in a timely manner and not hold us both up. Do I tell him to lay off or should i start just using a different type of alarm no honestly i feel like this is the best time you could ask this question try the hatch yeah because the way that it works and i'll have a code soon because i'm clapping with them for the redheads sorry toes like it's okay cheating on us podcast um the way that it works is like it's 30 minutes before your alarm is supposed to go off
Starting point is 00:54:06 they start this light that is supposed to be like the sun so uh you know 30 minutes before it's just like a little light and by the time you're supposed to wake up it's this really bright light and you don't even realize that it's woken you up so the last two days I woke up a few minutes before my alarm and then by the time my alarm went off I was like oh okay I can get out of bed and I've always been a snoozer. Always. Yeah, me too. And I intentionally set my hatch alarm to wake me up earlier than I need to be up because I would like to have extra time.
Starting point is 00:54:33 And I still didn't snooze. Usually if I set my alarm for earlier, that's just more time to snooze. Yeah. I think that might just be like a really easy solve here. Right. No, I completely agree. But also turning off someone's alarm and not waking them up is next level psychotic it is but some people like just are people who wake up when they wake up and they they open their eyes and they get out of bed and it's not very hard for them so he might not
Starting point is 00:54:54 like understand how impossible that is for you right it's impossible for me too and if someone turns off my alarm I've turned off my alarm in my sleep and not even known oh that's the worst completely slept through it and been like, did my phone malfunction? Yeah, that is the absolute worst. I'm the type of person I need a full 30 minutes minimum to get out of bed. The hatch is 30 minutes. I have like once I'm fully awake. Once I'm like fully awake, I need 30 minutes.
Starting point is 00:55:20 I'm Tertie Lou. Like I've always been that person. But is your room really dark? Yeah. Mine's been that person. But is your room really dark? Yeah. Mine's not that dark. It's dark, but there's doors to our bathrooms which have natural light. So like the light comes in when the sun comes up,
Starting point is 00:55:34 but it's not. I feel like a hatchet wouldn't make a difference on my eyes because my room is like fairly bright. No, Turdy Lou, like it does. I didn't even, I didn't even notice it it's like and I was sleeping facing the other way and like behind me the hatch is bright but it somehow woke me up like the hatch knows what it's doing by the way I'm this is not sponsored at all like I'm down to try but my room is bright I can't see like how effective it would be if the room is already lit
Starting point is 00:55:59 there's this huge orb next to you I'll try it honestly you're making sound really good waking up is just so hard like I'll try anything yeah no waking up like if I could nail like my morning routine and like get up before Harry like be a human being and like get my coffee and not just be like scrambling all morning my life would be enhanced and so far I'm two for two days and do you feel like it's made a difference in your productivity and everything I don't yeah like not productivity because like it's I'm still you know I'm at his behest right but like it's so much nicer waking up on my own instead of like because of the crying and then I'm like oh right you know I can like brush my teeth in peace I weighed myself I haven't used your tongue scraper no so I I got my tongue scraper it's
Starting point is 00:56:47 really nice in the evenings and it's fun in the mornings like when I brush my teeth in the morning every morning when you're pregnant you will gag while you brush your teeth I had a feeling you were gonna say that for the course and the part where you gag is the part where you brush your tongue and so I did the tongue scraper yesterday morning and it was so gaggy and even when I was like making my coffee like I still was having like tongue gagginess. Oh that's too bad because it's so much better in the morning. I know but I used it in the evening and I liked it. And did you get a lot of schmutz? Yeah yeah yeah. Isn't it crazy? It's more than you think right? Yeah it's just like a bunch like it's a little bit like placebo schmutz because it's also saliva but okay no okay I really wish
Starting point is 00:57:26 you would do it in the morning because it's like chunky phlegm ew and I did it yesterday morning and it wasn't enough to make me withstand the gag oh my god I like literally that's one thing that's getting me out of bed is my excitement to see what's on my tongue well sorry to make your dear toasters about us but um oh right hatch restore to like try it out i know i'm like really new to it but i'm two for two yeah by the way that's actually really good advice and i feel like i'm a bear like i just want to sleep all day long but make your boyfriend pay for it because this is his problem yeah yeah and just tell him to wait till jackie has a code for you totally all right next up turny lou and jackie oh the toast is one of the highlights of my day.
Starting point is 00:58:05 I feel like you're the older sisters I never got and I'm currently in need of some big sis advice. I recently got off birth control because I found out I have low levels of fertility. Shout out to Modern Fertility for getting this convo started for me. Love that. Shout out.
Starting point is 00:58:18 This is also not sponsored. I am consulting a local doctor to help me as I'm not ready to have kids yet, but I want to be proactive so I can have a family one day. The first step was to get off birth control. My boyfriend of over a year has been so supportive and understanding during this time, but now that I'm off my birth control, my hormones are whack.
Starting point is 00:58:33 I am constantly feeling repulsed by anything this man does. A simple fart puts me over the edge. I now feel like he's lazy, he's gross, and annoying. Before I got off birth birth control I was madly in love with the occasional annoyance I can't tell if it's the hormones or am I at the mark where the honeymoon stage is over do I talk to my doctor about this do I sit down with my boyfriend and tell him how he's currently making me feel I don't want to make any rash decisions if it's only temporary and I don't want to hurt my boyfriend's feelings help you need time on this
Starting point is 00:59:01 like you have to see your hormones have not settled yet like you've been on birth control for many years you don't want to make a hormonal decision I would just talk to your doctor and ask like when your hormones will level out and you'll like not be feeling so hormonal do not break up with your boyfriend in a huff don't even have like a conversation with him because this could be like a completely you thing but like what if all this time like hormonal birth control was the patriarchy like trying to get women to like be okay with their boyfriend's disgusting habits oh and then you go off of it and you see them for what they really are which is which is ugly jackie you've cracked the code that is definitely what's going on like
Starting point is 00:59:36 big pharma just pushing women into like complacency yeah to not noticing and just being okay with like men's terrible habits and right and not and not requiring men to do better and you know reach their potential instead let's change how the women see them let's level out their hormones so it doesn't bother them it's literally josie and the pussycats like they're putting subliminal messaging in the music yeah they're putting subliminal messaging into the birth control you're so right yeah oh my god we're on but in terms in terms of this girl's actual problem like definitely wait and if by the time your hormones have settled you realize like maybe this was like actually a problem in your relationship then you can tackle it but I feel like for right now we could chalk this up to like just being you know out of sorts
Starting point is 01:00:19 yeah right now out of sorts but you know if in a long time like maybe you were just like emotionally mentally like coasting because your hormones were being kept at bay. I don't know. But I would not make any permanent rash decisions while you are regulating from these hormones. I feel like it can take months to regulate. Yes. Depending on how long you were on it. So give yourself a good chunk of time and then let's revisit it.
Starting point is 01:00:43 Okay. How about that? Yeah. And ask your doctor like when you can expect to be feeling like your original self again. Yeah, and there's doctor-patient confidentiality. So you could like tell her what's going on.
Starting point is 01:00:53 Yeah, but I maybe wouldn't because it sounds a little crazy. Not really, honestly. It doesn't sound crazy to me. It really doesn't. But I wonder, it's like, is anyone else's behavior now bothering you? Or it's like, maybe it's just him.
Starting point is 01:01:06 It's just your boyfriend. That's a good call. Like, is your mom bothering you? Yeah. Co-workers. Right. Are you just like feeling bothered? Right.
Starting point is 01:01:14 Take a look at all the other relationships and see if anything else has changed. But still, I would advise do not make a permanent decision like while you are in such of a transitional period. Yeah. No, that's not good. I completely agree. Maybe just like stay away from him. Yeah, no, that's not good. I completely agree. Maybe just like stay away from him. Yeah, yeah, no, like go out with the girls.
Starting point is 01:01:30 Dearest Turd and Jerd, I got out of a relationship last year after my boyfriend cheated on me using a dating app. Tonight, I was swiping, as I do, and I came across his profile and it said active today, but I know for a fact that he has a new girlfriend. Like he has a picture of them tagged from yesterday on his Instagram. Do I tell her or would that be like psycho ex behavior I have a
Starting point is 01:01:48 burner Instagram account from college that I could DM her with so it wouldn't be me but like should I just let it play out I left the relationship gracefully when I shouldn't have so I almost want to tell her for revenge purposes even though it's nothing to do with the new girlfriend even though I have nothing to do with the new girlfriend xoxo a spiteful toaster girl not your circus not your monkeys like stay out of just you'll never actually move on if you're like still dming his new girlfriend and I get your point but you do look crazy and just true freedom and true closure is like not caring and you need to get to that place yeah and you literally admitted that you'd be doing it for revenge not out of like the goodness of your heart because you're worried about this girl so you know you wouldn't supporting you could have pretended it was altruistic and I appreciate
Starting point is 01:02:32 that you didn't yeah also to me like you should just take this as a sign that you absolutely did the right thing and like you are on the right path like that's the sign from the universe like you're on the right path thank you universe thank you for this take the win no you're so right instead of like running with this information why don't you find solace in this information like you dodged a bullet like it's still going on he hasn't learned not that you probably ever blamed yourself nor was it ever your fault but it's like he will do it to the next person and the next person like it had nothing to do with you it had nothing to do with your relationship or something like you weren't giving and it's just him and he's a piece of shit and like I would find solace in that I really would that's so true like let this information heal you
Starting point is 01:03:12 instead of fuel your revenge yeah and it has restorative properties it does and it's been a year like we're moving yeah we're moving on not my circus moving on. Not my circus, not my monkeys. Retweet. That was Dear Toasters. I feel like each one, the answer was clear. Like, I feel good about the advice. I don't feel like there was any,
