Good morning, Millennials!
Welcome back to The Toast.
Happy Tuesday.
I hope everyone's having a great day.
I'm not.
Jax.
Well, you can't just leave us with that.
Claudia, what's wrong?
You don't even want to know.
I can't even say it.
Theo?
Well, don't even get me started on Theo.
Is there something else?
There is.
What?
We literally had this conversation one week ago on the toast about partners and spouses
who are just people, human beings who don't respect sleep.
What?
Ben woke you up when he was leaving for his trip?
Ben woke me up when he was leaving for his trip this morning at 4.30.
And I have been up since then.
Why didn't you fall back asleep?
I couldn't.
Like, first of all, what fucking nerve?
I just want to say, now I'm reliving it and I'm getting angry.
What fucking nerve?
Whenever I either come home late and Ben's already asleep or have to leave early,
I literally turn on the light in the bathroom, and I get annihilated for it.
Like, absolutely fucking annihilated.
You know what Ben does this morning?
What?
He's walking around the room with a flashlight, like, from his phone,
and he wanted to check in on Theo's eyes.
So, for those who don't know, I spent the night last night at the pet emergency room.
Theo is having some focaccia situation.
He's got like a one-eyed mulligan.
One of them won't open.
The doctors don't think it's, you know, severe or urgent.
It looks like a mild abrasion.
He's on antibiotics.
So drama queen.
Heart's going out to do.
Yeah, heart's up for do.
Prayer's up for do.
Prayer's up for do.
I was thinking about do all night.
Bru and I were on pins and needles waiting for results.
Ben's running around the room with his dumb ass motherfucking flashlight and then he comes to the bed with his big flashlight to like take a look at theo's eye like a big flashlight you mean the
light on his phone that's a big flashlight for sure but it's not like you know the one it might
as well be it might as well be like a cop's flashlight okay and Theo's laying
with me and Ben's flashing around his big dumb ass light and flashing it in my goddamn eye
so I'm like oh okay I'm like oh wow okay a light my eye. And then he left. And I'm like, all right, I guess I'm going back to sleep.
I know it's 4.30.
And that was it for me.
And I just, I have like anger coursing through my veins
for the fucking lunacy, the lack of consideration
and the brain dead nature of the flashlight usage.
I'm like mad, I'm fucking mad because I'm tired I woke up at
4 fucking 30 I'm sorry turdy that that's what you're going through I'm really pissed you know
he thought he was being considerate though because he's like skulking around in the dark with his
flashlight why does he need to check on Theo's eye I'll be up in a few hours because he's worried about his boy no because he's a drama queen and he's like you know I'm gonna
have to take care of Theo this whole week because Ben is gone and he just like wants to pretend like
he did something I'm mad and you know when I spoke to him this morning he was like I'm sorry I'm like
it's okay but you know what I like now sitting here like the whole day is ahead of me and I feel like I've already done a whole day I'm fucking mad I'm really I'm like I'm pissed what did you do from 4 30 on such a good question
I laid I made a bowl of cereal I watched Texan in the city then I watched Jay-Z Jones in the six
then I did my hair then I gave Theo breakfast
then I took like
a pretty decent
amount of time
doing my makeup
I made the bed
oh I cleaned the house
because of course
big fancy Ben Soffer
celebrity is going
on his trip
he had to turn the house
into a dump
so me the maid comes
and
yeah I just did the dishes
I literally like
I did everything
yeah
no um today's not the day to fuck with me Yeah, I just did the dishes. I literally like, I did everything. Yeah.
No, today's not the day to fuck with me.
I guess I shouldn't tell you about my experience waking up this morning because it was.
Get out of here.
It was sublime.
But baby Harry came, was plopped on your chest and gave you a big kiss
and said, oh, mommy, I love you so much.
Is that what happened happened so usually I never
make it to my alarm because Harry wakes us up with his cries and so I don't ever experience the alarm
I never like have the alarm wake me up I did get a hatch two days ago and I set my new alarm on my
hatch for a little earlier than my old alarm on my phone because I would like to get up before Harry
said I could like be a person and not just like stumble out of bed and go into the crib and you know yeah
like frazzled and this morning every once in a while like he sleeps through the morning
till like our morning time and this morning like the hatch well I got to experience how the hatch
wakes you up like gradually so I technically like woke up before my alarm because like the hatch did that and then literally two minutes later Harry woke up so I was like amazing I got to like
get a coffee go in there and just like be human okay I thought you were like actually gonna have
had like a sublime like that just sounds that just sounds like everything worked out in your favor
the timing was right which it rarely rarely happens like he always wakes up before I thought
you were gonna say oh Zach let me sleep in.
He took Harry, and by the time I arose, Harry was all dressed and fed for the day,
laying in my bed saying, mommy, let's go out for scones today.
Oh, I wish.
But we should go out for scones today.
Harry's so going to grow up to be British.
He doesn't even know it.
Yeah.
Oof.
You know, when you're, like, fucking tired.
Yeah. Like, I could cry. Like I'm really I'm going to send a strongly worded really nasty text to Ben.
Pray for Ben and also pray for me who you know I'm I'm the one who's here to receive all of this.
No and I have such a busy fucking day. Like what do you have up going on turdy loohoo
well we have freaking fred at five o'clock so hopefully you can nap
and I can't oh my god I'm like literally so mad I'm like
what do you have to do today could we maybe push anything to tomorrow
today well I just have to like take care of Theo and I'm not okay you're crying I've been
up since 4 30 yeah I was supposed to start my physical therapy today the snatcher sent me up
with a physical therapist that she worked with a few years ago that she really liked his name is
Frank um because I've been having really bad back problems so I was gonna do that today and then I physical therapist that she worked with a few years ago that she really liked. His name is Frank.
Because I've been having really bad back problems. So I was going to do that today. And then I was going to, you know, that's going to take a while. So after the toast and then we have breaking bread
and then I have my book club and now I'm just not going to enjoy any of it. I was looking forward
to my PT. I was looking forward to my book club. I think you should move PT so that you can take a nap and that you can enjoy
Freaking Fred and book club.
Yeah.
I think that's the move.
I,
you know,
these,
these men,
they become celebrities
and they think,
you know,
they forget all about their wives.
They treat everyone like shit.
Ben's going to Alabama today. For a meet and greet because he's a big celebrity for a meet and greet because he's
a big celebrity so if anybody in alabama wants to go defend me if they want to go defend me if
anyone in alabama wants to get woken up and have a flashlight in their eye go see ben no if anybody
wants to take up this cause in mobile go to ben's meet and greet tonight for Spritz. Ben's going to go to his meet and greet.
It's going to be like a protest.
You guys, we should protest outside.
Yes.
Should I fly?
You should.
I'll sleep on the plane.
But let me ask you something.
Not to, not to victim blame or anything.
Oh, no, no, no.
I'm not victim blaming.
Why do you think that you couldn't fall back asleep?
Like for me, like if I woke up at 430, I'm like, oh my God, three more hours.
Good night.
I know.
Normally me too.
But like, I don't know why I didn't fall back asleep.
It was also like a gradual wake up.
Like first he got out of bed and like, you know, charged into the bathroom.
And I heard that.
And I said, have a safe flight.
And then I fell back asleep.
And then he's packing with the light running around the room.
I'm like, oh, you're still here.
Then the light's directly in my eye when he's flashing Theo.
So it was like, oh, I know he woke up at 4.30.
By the time I went to go pee, it was 5.
So I feel like he was walking around for 30 minutes with the light on.
Got it.
OK.
And that's enough time to really shake you out of your room.
And then you're up.
And then I'm up.
So I just feel off.
I don't feel right.
And you know I have my period.
So that on top of the 4.30 AM., I'm not one to be fucked with today.
I will keep that in mind.
Can you believe?
It's just going to be turdies way today.
And that's different than every other day.
It's true.
No, sometimes I put up a fight, you know, arguing this point and that.
Oh, you do actually arguing this point and that.
Oh, you do, actually.
You're not going to hear a peep out of me today.
It's whatever Turdy thinks.
It's whatever Turdy knows.
I feel like for everyone's safety, like, it's best if I'm just,
I keep to myself today.
You don't think that you need to kind of let it out?
Maybe it's best for the ratings if you don't.
Yeah, no.
Or maybe, I mean, whatever Turdy wants, Turdy gets.
Do whatever you need to do, Turdy Lou.
I just really hope that people take up for me at Ben's Bean Greet today.
If you're listening to this and you live in Alabama and you're going.
He is going to have a miserable time.
Just take up for me.
Say, not only was Claudia's morning ruined,
but my morning was ruined too because Claudia was a nasty wench on the toast today
because of you.
Yeah.
It was you.
And if you guys want to like, you know,
make signs and pick it,
I wouldn't be against that either.
And what should the signs say?
Okay.
Something about how Ben doesn't support literacy or sleeping.
Or something about, you know, no more flashlights.
Maybe that would be our chant as we stand in unity.
Yeah.
Okay.
I mean, if anybody has any better ideas.
Drop them in the comments.
We'd love to see.
What would your picket sign say in the comments?
Yeah.
Give some ideas to the Alabama toasters.
Let literate women sleep.
Yeah.
Because he knows, you know what?
I feel like it was intentional because tonight's my book club.
And so you think he was trying to sabotage you.
Yeah.
So that I can't enjoy my book club because I'll be so tired.
And he'll be like, well, maybe you just shouldn't do it anymore. Yeah, so that I can't enjoy my book club because I'll be so tired. And he'll be like,
well, maybe you just shouldn't do it anymore.
But you know what I found?
Like sometimes I'm so tired
and I don't want to go to something.
It's something that I know I would have enjoyed,
but like I just, I can't, I don't want to go.
But like once I'm there,
like you really are just there and you enjoy yourself
and you forget how you felt before.
A hundred percent.
Usually that happens. Ben didn't fully think through this plan. We're about 10 minutes in. just there and you enjoy yourself and you forget how you felt before a hundred percent usually that
happens Ben didn't fully think through this plan we're about 10 minutes in it hasn't kicked in yet
for you no Ben hasn't fully thought through his plan no he under I will enjoy book club he
underestimated the turdy Lou hundred percent he always does always does but more importantly Always does. Always does. And I'm just worried about Theo. More importantly, how's Theo?
Honestly, I've never taken a trip to like the emergency room for pets.
And I didn't even know where my local one was.
So this is just a reminder to everyone to always, you know, know your resources.
I went.
Basically, after dinner last night, Ben's like, what's up with Theo's eye?
And one thing about Ben is like he's overly cautious. I'm it's fine it's fine it's fine and then I did take a
look and I'm like I don't know one of them was like pretty sealed shut and we whisked him off
to the emergency room it was so sad in the emergency room oh my god I'm not gonna cry
start talking I was crying before bed like it was so sad they had this candle and there was a sign
above it that said like if this candle is lit I that said, like, if this candle is lit.
I'm going to cry.
It said, if this candle is lit, like, please keep your voices down.
Someone is saying goodbye.
It was so depressing.
I actually, I liked going there.
It gave me perspective because Theo was fine and they kept pushing him to the back of the line because every time another dog came in no so every time another dog came in I like really realized
how like literally Theo was okay my other dog it was it was so sad and like this girl was there
she was by herself she was like making the emergency room was like actually really emotional
she was like by herself which I just feel like it so scary. She was like young. And her dog like was like this.
Oh, my God.
It was so scary.
And that's just when the doctor was finally getting to Theo.
And the girl walked in.
The doctor was like, you're going to need to hold on a minute.
And I was like, yeah, of course.
Go.
And then when the doctor came back, I was like, how is that little bulldog?
And she was like, it doesn't look good.
What happened to him?
I don't know. I did over here. I was like how is that little bulldog and she was like it doesn't look good what happened to him um I don't know like I did over here I was being really nosy um like the bulldog had like discs in his back you know French bulldogs have really bad back problems I remember Brian used
to have a French bulldog and he actually had to start living with Brian's friend in Florida because
he can't walk upstairs and the guy had like a house with no stairs um so he had discs in his back and basically I heard her say like I think
she said I know I sound crazy I think she said fentanyl patch like the dog had like this patch
on his back because he was in so much pain and it just ran out and he started to I guess the pain
all came back and the dog was like got it and even when they took him back into the like
room I still heard the panting it was really sad oh wow I know I hope to never take another trip
back there was so depressing so Ardu is doing well better on the mend he's not the thing is
and why I was never really truly worried is like his spirits were high the whole time if Theo is ever lethargic then I'm concerned but he was like wagging his tail wanting
to play with the other dogs but you know one of his eyes was just not working yeah they took a
look they said he has a mild abrasion on one of his eyes it shouldn't be a big deal an antibiotic
drop slash like ointment thing will should clear it up in a week so we started that
last night I did it this morning it's hard to get him to get you know those drops in his eye
sure he's a fighter and he doesn't need to wear an eye patch I feel like maybe he should
he's wearing a cone and I he wouldn't keep an eye patch on but what is the cone gonna do for him
like he can't scratch his own eye he can't Yeah, which could be the reason how he got the abrasion in the first place.
They love that.
Or it could just make it worse.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, well, prayers up for Theo.
It was a rough night.
Thinking of the French Bulldog as well.
I know.
I woke up this morning with a heavy heart, like, feeling for the French Bulldog, I feel.
Well, hopefully he gets another patch and finds relief.
But it's not a long-term solution.
No.
Did we have an age on the French bulldog?
No, I couldn't hear.
I was like being a busy body and a half.
I just wanted to see what other people had going on.
Yeah, but also you see the dog come in,
and then naturally you want to know what's going on.
You care.
Oh, yeah, like this guy brought his cat in.
I literally knew everything that was going on. And cat was making like such sad sounds in the carrier and the guy was
explaining how the the cat got caught in his box spring and i don't know he went straight to the
back was this like a group forum like was it just like a circle where like everyone?
That's a good question.
It's a good question.
Are there not cordoned off rooms where there is examinations?
So actually the reason why I went to this place
is because it's one of the few in the city
that lets you stay with your dog the entire time.
So actually the non-threatening slash urgent,
like Theo's appointment.
So there's a reception with like the desk and chairs and stuff.
And in that room, there's an examination table.
Theo actually had his appointment in reception because they don't let you separate from your dog.
Some of the more heavy, serious cases went to the back room.
Okay.
But actually that's why I was in reception the entire time.
Yeah, you're right.
So you see everyone splayed out.
It's kind of like.
It was like kind of like a free for all.
Yeah.
It's like group therapy.
It was kind of chaotic.
And you know what?
The longer I sat there, the less concerned I got because I saw people with like real problems.
Yeah.
Perspective is everything.
Perspective.
But it was a.
But still, it was scary for do.
We don't minimize what you has gone through
no we don't and you're right i think i should move my physical therapy today like i think i
need to be with do yeah and also like why does frank need this yeah no this is not the energy
doesn't want to meet this turdy lou no margo said frank was like such a great guy he deserves better
and he did great work but like i was really looking forward to like getting you know someone
to look at my back today, you know?
Yeah.
Your back will have to wait.
Theo's eye takes priority.
Yeah.
As this freaking friend.
Greater than back.
Thanks for hearing me out.
You know, I do feel better than like I did.
I feel like a lot of my anger has dissipated.
Like, I still want to kill Ben, but I'm not going to take it out on the toast.
Yeah.
Yay. Crisis averted we made it through to the other side that's what we do here at the toast you come in it's kind of like urgent care like
you come in with your distress whatever it is all of you listening and we're going to make it
through together we're going to put you on the examination table and reception and we're going
to find out what's wrong and we're just going gonna let you splay it out forever on but we're
gonna fix it yeah so i just wanted to let everyone know like whatever attitude you get for me today
like every day oh my god it's like every day you have your excuse lined up for like yeah no i
jackie it's not fucking excuse bitch it's called context yeah you have your explainers
it's just important that everybody knows like i'm a human you're a human we are going through
things and personally i'm dealing with a rough 12 hours yeah yeah and like that's what the show
is about sharing our experiences and for good and bad thank you it's not always gonna be
you know coming back from portugal right it's not always going to be, you know, coming back from Portugal.
It's not always going to be Diamonds and Rosé, but it should be.
It should be, but it's not.
It's not.
She was so right about that, Lisa.
Yeah.
It's pretty obvious, but yeah.
Wow.
Facts, that's fair.
I think we should get into the stories because weirdly,
it's popping off on a Tuesday.
Jackie had six.
She had to whittle it down. She was overwhelmed. No, I down she was overwhelmed but then Claudia really wanted to talk about one story so I had to
yes I had to whittle down to four and so excited to read someone to filth today especially given
my mood oh and hopefully tomorrow's a slow day so then some of my others that weren't even really
that b-list could make it to the stories like I, I'm feeling good. I've got stories for days.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I didn't notice because it was, like, in my own, like, situation.
You're looking so pregnant.
Yeah, well, I am pretty pregnant.
And then also you show sooner, faster, bigger, like, when you're not in your first pregnancy.
Did you know that?
Oh, is that true?
No.
Yes, very true.
Like, it's what they say, and it also is what i do hold your belly like let me say
yeah i actually i was about to post a video to my instagram because i like i like when i do like a
mirror picture and then like i turn to the side and it's like yeah boom um yeah so because yesterday
on the show like i loved my sweatsuit but like it looked like absolute fucking garbage in the reels
and so i was like maybe it was just too big so now I'm trying the opposite of wearing something like svelte to see if I look smaller
because I looked like a big fat fuck listen we said this was not the year of negative self-talk
and we're certainly not calling ourselves big fat fucks when we're pregnant no I know like for real
I'm not the thing is I actually not, like, blaming myself for that.
Like, I think it was the sweatsuit
and the chair and the camera angle.
Like, they were not a mix.
It's really not me,
because I don't know if I told you guys this.
Turdy Lou knows.
But, like, I went to the doctor for my, like,
you go once a month,
and in the last month of pregnancy,
I only gained one pound.
And do you think that one pound, like, was the baby?
No, because the baby's not even a pound yet but it's just
like it's so easy to just put on weight when you're pregnant because it's like fuck it right
um but you also like need to put on weight that's outside of the baby like the placenta weighs and
this and that and also like you got to live your life but one pound in a month like i'm like
healthy queen so i'm really not even feeling like super big outside of pregnancy but like the
the sweatsuit just like wasn't helping me yesterday so i thought i would try something
different like uh skin tight you look bad how many months are you i can never keep up i'm in
my fourth month fourth month okay yeah people keep asking me like what did you do i don't know
that's probably for the best? I don't know.
That's probably for the best.
Like I don't need everyone to know my business.
No, it's so true.
That's like a kind of a,
kind of a blessing of having like a sister with.
Who has a big mouth,
but it's also forgetful.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So true.
So true.
Well, you look great.
Thank you so much.
Hopefully I'll see when we wrap,
if this was the right move or if I should just go back to wearing leggings in the bar sweatshirt like if it ain't broke don't
fix it that's me today leggings in a sweatshirt if it ain't broke don't fucking fix it but sometimes
like those reels like i like how i look on the youtube and then in the reels i'm like who is that
not this is not my plate this is not my plate this is not i know you don't feel that way because
you're just having like the opposite life experience right now where every day you're
just like smaller than you even thought uh but you know that we have something for everyone here
yeah yeah and we always will hopefully not good so now without further ado, here are the Fast Five stories that you need to know.

and for bed yeah and what does that say don't you find it weird how there's only one letter
difference between ben and bed i I do find that strange.
And it's like just one thing went awry.
Actually, really two things.
Ben and bed.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But it's like you can't connect maybe because that letter changed.
Yeah.
I just, I find it interesting that the,
that it's in the ads, you it's in the ads you know like even the ads
now yes but I think we'll be able to make any ad applicable to this situation yeah because like
when when you're so mad like it takes over your whole being every your whole vision is clouded
you see everything through the lens of so it's like if we have state farm it's
like you need insurance because you're gonna kill your husband no because i'm gonna burn down this
house yeah actually i don't think insurance covers arson if it's like your house but yeah or murder
but yeah um like what else do we have today do you know i do well we actually i know you're excited
because you've been dying to talk about fastgrowingtrees.com because you got a new tree
in your backyard. I did.
And you know what?
Ben is going to need some of my fast-growing trees when he's out on the streets and he needs an orange.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And we also have skylight frames,
which I will be changing the photo on my table
from a photo of me and Ben to a photo of me and Theo.
Yeah.
So really, you're right.
Deservedly so.
They're all applicable.
I'm excited to talk about fast growing trees jackie's been like non-stop talking about this new tree in her backyard that i got from fast growing trees it's an orange tree and then it i
it inspired me like find a place for it and the place that i found for it is actually the perfect
place to start a little garden it's not the time no but okay but can i talk about that i'm going
to start a garden yeah but you why don't you save it for when we talk about frasco and trees it's like okay by the way teaser alert spoiler alert
pretend you didn't hear that yeah our first story amanda binds has been placed on psychiatric hold
after roaming the streets of los angeles naked amanda binds has been placed on a psychiatric
hold tmz has learned after she was found roaming the streets naked and alone an eyewitness told
tmz amanda was seen walking near downtown LA early Sunday morning without any clothes. We're told
Amanda waved a car down telling the driver she was coming down from a psychotic episode.
Amanda herself then called 911. The law enforcement sources say Amanda was taken to a nearby police
station where a mental health team determined she needed to be placed on a 5150
psych hold fortunately our sources say it doesn't appear amanda was hurt at all during the ordeal
though things could have been much worse given the area where she was found a source close to
amanda tells tmc she's currently hospitalized and will likely continue to receive care for
several days typically a psychiatric hold only lasts 72 hours but it can be extended um also her parents have said that
they are not looking into doing another conservatorship after this incident um well I
have to say like to have the wherewithal to like understand like as you're coming down to ask for
help and call 9-1-1 like is It's like a. That's a huge deal.
I just.
Whenever I talk about Amanda Mines.
Like I get really sad.
Yeah.
I feel like.
Something happened to her.
And I don't think we'll really ever know what it is.
But she's such a talent.
And I think so many people.
Like us included.
Feel like they grew up with her.
And every time we report on like a. You know. when she takes a step back in her in her journey,
it makes me really sad. It does make me really sad. And I also like I have to commend the driver
that would pull over for a naked woman flagging the car down. I feel like most people wouldn't
like it surprises me that someone stopped for her and helped her, because like if you see like a
person walking around naked, you would say, oh, you because like if you see like a person walking
around naked you would say oh you're like you know crazy trying to get out of the way yeah so
maybe someone recognized her maybe but she's kind of unrecognizable these days like she looks just
different from how we remember her like she has black hair and then blonde um so I'm glad that
she was able to get help from a good Samaritan before, like this article says, like things could have gotten so much worse.
Considering the area that she was in.
Yeah.
It's like highly trafficked.
She's naked.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And vulnerable.
It's just really scary.
No, I know.
And I'm just curious, like who does she have around her?
I know she kind of has her parents, right?
I think she has a boyfriend.
Paul.
Yeah. But they were like broken up. I think of has her parents right I think she has a boyfriend Paul yeah but they were like broken up I think she has her parents too um I'm the thing is conservatorships have gotten such a bad rap rap that it's like you never want to be someone to
advocate for a conservatorship I also don't know her story I also don't know really anything about
conservatorships only like Britney and how horrible that was.
But they're meant.
I'm sure they are intended to do good.
Yeah.
And I don't know that this situation means that she should be under conservatorship.
I don't know what any of it means.
But they clearly have a lot on their hands.
Yeah.
I think for the most part, conservatorships are meant to be,
you know, positive and protect the
person for a temporary amount of time um obviously we all have like a bad connotation now because of
Brittany but I think for the most part like they do a lot of good like Tom Girardi's in a
conservatorship right now yeah but he's another just negative example well of a of a situation
and you could say like there is the argument that he's actually
not as unwell as he pretends to be yeah yeah yeah in order to not so another I'm sure there are good
examples of conservatives yeah yeah yeah um I just feel sad for Amanda Bynes like I I feel like
whenever we talk about her and she and she makes, we're always saying, like, we want her back in the game doing movies.
But I think, you know, that's pretty much out of the realm of possibility.
Yeah, she had been going to college for fashion design,
and it seemed like she was making progress and doing well in that arena.
I don't think we'll ever have her acting, doing comedy again.
I don't think that maybe she should
because like you said,
clearly something happened.
I imagine it was in the Hollywood toxic sphere.
Of course.
And it's best to stay out of it.
Yeah.
I just,
I really wish her well.
Me too.
Me too.
I hope she gets the help that she needs.
Are you ready for our next story?
Yes.
Which is some incredibly happy, heartwarming news
that I think Turdy Lou needs on this Tuesday.
Luke Combs and his wife, Nicole, are expecting their second baby.
They are joining the Two Under Two Club.
So country singer and our fave, Luke Combs,
and his wife, Nicole Hawking Combs,
are expecting their second child, they announced last night,
with the cutest announcement ever.
So it was a collage of photos of them and their baby Tex,
and Overlaid was one of Luke's new songs.
And Tex was wearing a shirt that said Big Brother.
Right, and the song is called Take You With Me,
and the lyrics that we
got were just all about how he wants to take his son like everywhere with him and even if he like
can't understand it yet like what he's doing and where he's going like he just wants him to
be everywhere with him I literally like facts straight facts so I love the song I love the
announcement I'm so happy for them that they're having another one I know that was a surprise
how old is Texx when was tex
born he's not one yet i think he was born in may i think let's get some candles burning some records
turning all the lights down low taking nice and slow the way he must have played that song and
said nico get over here. Yeah.
First comes the kind of love we make.
Then comes take you with me.
So, well, actually, if we're going to do that, it goes all the way back.
Beautiful crazy.
No, no, no, no.
He said, which songs are connected? Forever after all, better together.
You're first in my last name.
Oh, yeah, no, no. but we're just talking about the love
making yeah but you gotta get married first comes love then forever after all better together
how the love we make kind of love we make then this new one comes take you with me in the baby
carriage oh so cute you know and i think we said this last time when they were naming
their first son how like there's a lot of pressure on them to kind of like be and come up with the
most like original country name and they really killed it with Tex so hard to do it again no you
guys naming the second is even harder than naming a first because for your first you really have
names that you've always loved and so for the second if you don't have more names that you loved or like you ran
out like for the second it's like names that you've seen all throughout your life that you
never once thought like I would like to name my child this and now all of a sudden you have to
look at that name and be like that's my child and you have to take another look and say there might
be something there that wasn't there before it's so true
Claudia sent me this account last night I was just gonna bring that up oh no you didn't send
you sent me something else but oh I saw Meghan McCain posted an image from this account called
nameberry okay where she gives like a category and then like really specific name options or like if
you like this name but it's become really popular try this name yeah that's the same thing as what I sent you yes yes uh but it was more it was in graphics like cambo
is much more digestible no I love this girl on tiktok I just randomly I don't know why I got
targeted one of her videos but she's a baby name consultant um and she seemed really smart like she
had a lot of knowledge of like bible and history and like phonetics and linguistic.
And so she's doing a series. It's called Not This But That. Like, do you love a name,
but you can't use it because your friend had it or your cousin? Comment a name. And she does a
series where like once a week or maybe a couple times a week, she'll choose. Someone was like,
I wanted to name my daughter Madison, but you know, my best friend did that. What can I do
instead? And she'll come up with a name. And can't really explain like here this morning she did for somebody
you can't use the word the name Sloan s-l-o-a-n try Reese and like I can't explain why but like
they're the same vibe it's the same vibe yeah like okay you want to use um wait like she actually and I can't I don't know what's like the um
the science behind why it makes sense
okay here because I thought this wasn't was really good
she said if you can't do wrong one just give me one second and then you know what I'll show you
some of these nameberry ones it's such a cute idea for content by the way like i feel like moms like would love it
it is i went so deep i thought this was so good because i've always i really like the name piper
but let's say you can't use the name piper go for daphne like that makes sense yeah
yeah her name is her tiktok name is naming be TikTok name is Naming Bebe, if anyone cares.
Naming Bebe.
Okay.
Let me find.
Names are so hard.
Claudia, it's so hard.
Do you have, like, names that you're ready to name?
Like, kind of.
But, like, no.
You know, the good thing about, about you know waiting a little longer than
your siblings to have children is like you know you get to live but the bad thing is all like the
good family names get taken like Harold like Michael Michaela you know that that part definitely
sucks so if anything is like getting me to start wanting to
have kids it's like to snatch one of the remaining names before like the two older siblings have it
all and margo and i are out here with like you know sloan david and daphne yeah what were you
looking for i was looking for the list of names that it was like if you like this it was or it
was like themes if you want like floral names it was like really list of names that it was like, if you like this, it was, or it was like themes.
If you want like floral names, it was like really pretty floral names that aren't just like the obvious ones.
Oh, and that was the other thing that I liked that, that TikTok account does.
She takes into consideration names that have currently cracked like the top 20 and she won't recommend them.
Yeah, no, but it will be like, if you liked this, try this.
Like, because there are names right now that are so popular I
was looking at like most popular boy names by state and it's like you just can't the most
popular name is it is number one but it's also like literally number one in every state for
girls is Olivia oh so jealous I know it's a gorgeous name it's a gorgeous name do you like
your name I do but I also like it because I'm Jackie O you and you feel like a
Jackie well no because Jackie I like the name Jackie but I feel like special because I'm Jackie
O if I didn't okay but I'm not saying Jackie O I'm saying Jackie like to me you are such a Jackie
like Jackie is you and you are Jackie and I think it's very like emblematic of you
thanks but there's also like so many Jackie's weirdly I've like not been not really close with
Jackie throughout my life but like there's just like Jackie's out there there are Jackie's out
there but they're not on every corner they're not on every corner and there's certainly not a lot of
turdy loos on every corner well let me tell you every corner. And there's certainly not a lot of turdy loos on every corner.
Well, let me tell you how, like, I've literally never met another human being named Claudia.
Maybe every now and then there'll be, like, a Claudia in the book.
But she's never the main character.
She's always, like, the irrelevant ugly on the side.
And I'm, like, low-key, I'm not crazy about my name.
You're wrong for that.
Really?
Yeah, it's so beautiful.
I feel like out of all the sisters, we all have really beautiful names.
And also, you must remember that my real name is Jacqueline,
so a little more beautiful than Jackie.
For sure, but, like, that's literally not your name.
Like, I don't know.
No, but it's like when you put it with the rest of, like, our names,
it just, like, it presents nicer.
We all have really pretty names.
But mine is probably the most common, even though it's not even, like, Rachel even like Rachel well I don't know you just said Olivia's top 10 yeah now but Olivia's a million years old
when she was named it like it wasn't common yeah yeah not us like finding a way to make Nico Holmes
is um like baby announcement about us. Do you have any predictions?
But you like my name?
I love your name.
I love all my sister's names.
Maybe they'll do another like state vibe, you know, because Tex.
Yeah.
Like maybe not a state, but like a city.
Austin.
Yeah.
I'm assuming it's a boy.
Did she say if it's a boy?
It's a boy.
Oh, cute.
Phoenix Barren Room.
Right.
Like something in terms of like land you know yeah like there's
so many fun names like that yeah they'll come up with something good you know they love a little
um i can't speak today i'm sorry so you're just gonna leave the sentence redneck imagery
that's what luke combs said to us when we interviewed him on the red carpet,
that his music is redneck imagery.
It is.
And speaking of his music, the song Take Me With You comes out on Friday.
So prepare for tears on Friday.
I need to prepare.
Like, it's enough.
I need this album.
Five Leaf Clover, so good.
Joe, so good.
Love You Anyway, so good.
Like, I'm ready for the album, sir.
I'm ready for the album, but. I'm ready for the album,
but really my music cup has run over right now.
Like I have so many albums that I'm listening to and sometimes I'm,
there's such a dearth.
I just kind of like want to wait.
When does the album come out?
It's an amazing question.
I want to say the end of the month.
I'm really not ready. I'm ready. And i'm still listening to growing up all the time yeah like that's in my rotation growing up amelia
new morgan wallen rolling up the welcome mat like it's too much yeah it's too much it's too much
it's like then there are so many times when i've got nothing no because the summer is coming up
like low-key it's sneaking up on us and we need songs for the summer.
So that's what's coming out in the next couple of weeks.
Okay, turd-y loo-hoo.
Okay, turd-y loo-hoo.
I won't argue with you.
Are you ready for our next story?
That was a turd-y loo original.
Yes.
And everyone should really pray for this woman because of the form that turdy lou is
in yeah plus you know even on a kinder day she's not taken kindly to this story yeah read it anna
marie tendler who is also very well known as john mulaney's ex-wife the woman john mulaney left
olivia munn for so we give her i give her a little bit of grace because she's been through a lot.
She reacts to backlash after accusing Taylor Swift
of copying her art.
So Anna Marie Tendler claimed she was only kidding
when she accused Taylor Swift of copying her art
on the singer's era's tour.
The artist said in a TikTok video,
she said that the stage set up
during Swift's song Tolerate It
looked quote, strikingly like one of her photographs in tone and
in aesthetics. In the now deleted upload she showed the decorations which featured a dining table and
candles followed by her own 2021 portrait for comparison. She wrote what the fuck then she
asked her followers for help adding quote it doesn't totally feel like parallel thinking to me.
I'm a
small artist an independent artist who's trying to make money and live off of my artwork after
trolls criticized the allegation she called the footage a joke or satire in a comment she said
when i realized it wasn't landing as a joke i deleted it didn't mean any offense however tiktok
users expressed mixed feelings about her explanation add the it was a joke defense when the thing you meant seriously
turned out to be horribly out of touch.
Yeah.
Another, she can't seriously be accusing of Taylor Swift
of stealing her idea of setting a table.
Right.
But sure, piggyback off another artist to get your name out there.
Yeah.
Tenler's Defenders, meanwhile, wrote that her video was obviously
a joke calling haters simply unable to read her tone.
If it was a joke
like this Jackie there was so nothing even remotely the driest sense of humor but honestly
reading back what she said like and reading it knowing that it was a joke if it wasn't really
a joke and she meant it as a joke it's honestly like kind of funny I know but like I kind of wish
you like okay so let's just start at the beginning because I saw this
TikTok and I'm like oh my god such a stretch first of all like a dining room table is not an original
idea that you can of course own um and so on stage Taylor is like setting a dining room table and
it's meant to convey you know this relationship that's really one-sided and I guess Anna Marie
Tendler is like a photographer and she has like a photo of herself that she sells for like six grand of her sitting at a dining room table with like
nobody on the other end, you know? So not only is that like not an original idea that you can
like have as your own, to think that, but then to say it out loud is so embarrassing. And I'm
telling you, I watched the video, like Jackie Jackie there's no semblance of a joke like
it's not a joke and I think the absolute loseriest response to something that you can do
is be like I was kidding like you weren't you thought you were ripped off so stand by it because
to make an accusation like that against Taylor like you know everyone's gonna come for you even
if you have even if your accusation had merit you know her fans are going to come for you so you need to be prepared also if she was
joking she's making fun of these small artists who do always say like so and so stole my idea
I'm an independent artist who's trying to make money and live off my artwork and so like
I think that that's kind of funny but I'm not like in like the art world no that's worse yeah it is
kind of worse because like she is an artist and I feel like she is someone who would like take some of that stuff seriously.
We've just seen like so many versions of it at this point.
Like I feel like the first few times that we saw it,
it was really clear like there was copying happening.
But now people will do it about anything.
So she might be making fun of that trend, but I just.
It's a really niche joke.
It's a bad joke.
And she's an artist, not a comedian um so like it's important to keep
that in mind and like I just if we're taking the video on Fates Value her being like I'm trying to
make a living like she literally sells photos of herself for like five to ten grand and her
ex-husband is John Mulaney like she's completely fine so that's why it might have been a joke
right but it wasn't funny like yikes yeah yeah jokes
should be funny but like I don't know maybe she just has this like oh really I didn't see the
video but now I'm sure if I watched it now and like knew it was a joke I would find it funny
because that is like something that people do all the time like oh I did this and this person did
that they copied me when it really is parallel thinking. Like two people can have the idea to sit at a dining table alone.
Okay.
Now you're kind of like making me think like maybe it was a joke.
Like.
But like it wasn't Jackie.
She was like visibly shaken in the video.
Like,
like you don't think she was putting on like one of these people who's like,
Oh,
I don't know.
I mean,
if,
okay.
Here,
wait,
I can watch it for myself. Yeah. Watch it. Oh, here don't know. I mean, if, okay. Here, wait, I can watch it for myself.
Yeah, watch it.
Oh, here I am.
Put your speaker near your mic so people can hear it.
Oh, wait, hold on.
I'm watching a video of me right now.
How did that happen?
Why?
I don't know.
I keep trying to click this link from Oops Deleted Videos.
TikTok video.
Okay.
Uh, Taylor, my girl, people who designed Taylor's tour,
this tolerated setup looks strikingly like one of my photographs in tone and in aesthetics.
It doesn't totally feel like parallel thinking to me.
I'm a small artist, independent artist,
who's trying to make money and live off of my artwork.
I don't know what to do about this and maybe somebody can
help me okay now hearing it again like through the lens of like perhaps it being a joke like
it is kind of funny and I think it is a joke but she's fucking roasting these small creators who
like claim that everyone who does something similar to them is stealing their art no and by
the way there is legitimate thievery that goes on like for sure but people get so carried away
because like people those types of videos like get a lot of engagement and it's like great exposure
for like an artist or whatever um but they're out of hand like when I see people being like
I went for a walk and then Ariana Grande went for a walk it's like calm down like every they take it too
far so like and i guess that's kind of the the the message she's kind of sending with her but
it's extremely like niche and convoluted and hard to understand and i feel if i knew annemarie
tendler's personality like if i followed her for years i would be able to tell you whether or not
this was a joke but this is like the first time I've ever seen her speak so I don't know does she actually
talk like that when she's being serious or is she like being like that's right is she right here's
the question is she a weenie or is she not because I was giving weenie energy and is that how she is
yeah I I'm inclined to give her the benefit of the doubt and if so it's a funny joke and like everyone I feel bad that she must have a pit
I feel bad it didn't go the way that she had wanted I feel bad as well yikes yeah yikes
yeah it's not it's not great no it's not but. But I'm going to give her the benefit of the doubt because I think she could
use the grace in this situation.

obviously not a tree connoisseur to find the right tree for them I did want some citrus trees in my

Shaquille O'Neal is reassuring fans that there's no need to worry after having some hip surgery he
said just got some BBL work Sha shack is in good spirits after having hip surgery
the retired mba star told fans he was doing just fine a day after he posted a photo to his social
media accounts showing him in a hospital bed with an iv attached to him so i think at first people
were really concerned like shack what's going on you're in the hospital so he said to all the
people who are worried and concerned first off let me say thank you and lastly no need to worry just had to get some bbl work aka hip replacement thanks and love you all but no need
to worry and yes i'm fine you know what i feel like i learned this from emily simpson from the
real housewives of orange county chris jenner and my friend's mom who recently just got one like a
hip replacement is literally like the best thing that can ever happen to like someone of a certain age.
Like they say it gives you a totally new life.
Like remember when Emily Simpson from Orange County Housewives was like out here doing
cartwheels with her new hip?
Yeah.
And she was like, I never would have been able to do this.
And Kris Jenner too.
And it's like such a low lift 30 minute surgery.
And it like really changes your life. Yeah. Well, Shaq had had a goal to lose 60 pounds by his 51st
birthday and he just turned 51 he had lost 40 pounds so far so he got the hip replacement
surgery to help him not to help him lose the next 20 but like that's going to give him you know even
more of the flexibility to lose the next 20 and then he said he's going to be doing underwear
commercials with his kids I don't even know how like an anesthesiologist would like do the math to get Shaq down. Like
he's so big and I feel like they have to get like a special table. He can't fit on like a regular
operating room table right? It looks like a regular table. There's no way and you know that
they put like an artificial hip in that's what
it is you're kind of like a bionic man or woman yeah yeah he definitely had to get special parts
made like he's too big yeah no he definitely needed a bigger hip than say Christian or I
would need yeah that's interesting I just often think about all the accommodations that probably
need to be made for Shaq like of course the first thing that comes to mind is like travel.
But he probably travels private most of the time anyway.
So that doesn't seem like a big deal.
But just like everyday life things.
And thank God Shaq became rich and famous.
Because like if it wasn't, like Shaq could not fit in like regular first class.
No, or like a regular car, a sedan.
Right.
Or an Uber or a taxi or the subway even.
Yeah.
Thank God Shaq is rich.
Like, I wonder if he thinks about that.
Like, express his gratitude, of course, for all the things he had.
But how difficult his life would be if not.
Yeah.
Because all of his clothes are custom.
It's tall, but it's also wide.
And, like, girth.
Yeah.
He's also, everything he wears is custom clothing.
Because he can't shop shop i don't even think
he could shop at the big and tall store but like what about the people who are shack size who
aren't rich and famous i don't think seriously there are a lot of people like that i would
imagine if you're that tall like you're automatically a good basketball player i know
just like stand at the hoop and just like touch the ball of the men right so like was shack even
a good player or did he just stand at the hoop and make sure every
ball went in right and just oversee what was going on below because he could see the whole thing
yeah it's it's a question worth asking yeah you should ask Ben at a later date not not today I'm
so done with him yeah don't make him feel like big and smart today I feel like actually speaking like
Shaq is one of Ben's idols like Ben loves Shaq he seems like an awesome guy based on my limited
knowledge of the sports world like he's obviously a great athlete he's a father of many he's a now
a commentator he's a DJ he's a businessman like he's funny too with his BBL joke like
he seems like an all-around great guy who's not affected
by the fame and the riches yeah and i feel like we've spoken about this once because like a couple
months ago maybe actually like a year ago there was a story about how shack paid for everyone's
checks at a restaurant in the city remember oh she's about to sneeze but but she remembers um
i do remember.
And we were talking about how he was on a date with a girl.
And what must it be like to be intimate with Shaq?
You know, this morning, I was about to say last night, but it was this morning,
I watched that episode of Sex and the City where Samantha runs into that guy on the street.
And he says to her, listen, I've had a lot of trouble with the ladies because I'm extremely well endowed. she's like oh trust me it's nothing I can't handle and she actually ends up not being able to handle
it and they just have to be friends I feel like that's shock yeah maybe that's his struggle right
too well that's the thing that well I mean he had a number of children so somebody did it somebody
he handled it yeah and then gave birth you know, children related to Shaq.
God bless that woman.
Lil Shaqs.
Yeah.
Which they probably weren't so little.
No.
I wonder what they, how big they were at birth.
And I'm sure, I think I actually read somewhere.
One of his kids, I think is like hoping to be in the NBA.
So they're tall.
They are.
Yeah.
Great.
Yeah.
Great. Are you ready for our fifth and
final story which is a twofer yes because it's Bravo News main category subset a Ariana Maddox
tells Tom Sandoval to die in the first post-affair pump rules trailer so Vanderpump Rules released
the mid-season trailer yesterday and it's what we can expect to see the rest of the season a lot of
stuff that we knew that was coming Sheena's wedding Schwartz and Raquel making out they
edited some footage to look to point us in the direction of like Tom and Raquel a little bit
yeah but there is a scene at the end where Tom's like going through the cupboard Sandoval is going
through the cupboard and it's like can I get you anything or do you uh what does he say he said you want anything and Ariana says for you to die such a good fucking
answer so I think it's that that might have been filmed post Sandoval oh yeah I think by the way
a lot of it was filmed post Sandoval because when Sheena's sitting in that like white furry bucket
hat those are the paparazzi pictures of her walking into Ariana's house like I would
they literally threw together this mid-season finale with the footage they've shot in the last
two weeks like okay great most of it I was hoping that some of it was from the new footage I figured
that like this stuff from not you know Ariana saying to die but some of the other stuff was um
from the actual season because like Sheena's always crying in a bucket yeah like whatever that's literally when she finds out okay now i need to watch it again
like hearing what sheena said no i've watched it 45 000 times like looking for new like facts
new leads new clips and like tips um it looks very good i i'm curious if they're you know gonna
continue with the rest of the season unedited and then add more or cut out some of the crap we're going to probably end up watching this season.
I think add more.
They said that they're not re-editing the episodes.
This is a boom for Vanderpump.
Now they have extra episodes.
That's what advertiser wouldn't buy into that.
Any other show that's waiting to get on the air is going to have to wait.
We don't care.
any other show that's waiting to get on the air is going to have to wait.
Like,
yeah,
we don't care.
Uh,
and it seems like every episode that's coming out,
Andy keeps saying like the foreshadowing is crazy. You know,
in tonight's episode,
like Sheena has a conversation with Raquel being like calling her a
homewrecking whore,
like as a joke about like hooking up with Schwartz.
Right.
She said,
I was the original homewrecking whore.
Then it was Lala.
Now it's you.
So true.
No,
you know what? So true true and I know given like the
the way we've been talking since the most recent episode of antiprime worlds you guys might think
like I'm not team Ariana but like I totally am but like Ariana hasn't offended me in the last
episodes like it's Lala Katie and Sheena we were saying yesterday how like you know the girls
who are all speaking on behalf of Ariana are like going so hard and being almost thirsty.
When it's really important to remember that Katie and Ariana are the only two people on this entire show who have never cheated on their spouses.
So like Lala being so mad when she was a mistress.
Sheena being so mad when she was a mistress.
Again, Lala and Sheena weren't friends with the girls.
But still, it's still cheating.
So the moral high ground everyone has found themselves on,
in my opinion, is extremely unfounded.
And they have no right to be there.
Yeah, that is a part of it.
Especially, everyone's certain dynamics are different.
It's like Lala was you know the m word which she
hates to be called but also she hooked up with Raquel's boyfriend when Raquel was dating him like
and you don't get as much of a say Sheena was a mistress and she defended Raquel all season and
encouraged some of this nefarious behavior with friends is men yeah x you don't get a say
katie gets a say because she was on the receiving end of raquel's nefarious behavior and because
she's never done this in a situation of course ariana is the complete victim here but everyone's like you know a little bit like high and mighty
look in the mirror just a little you know yeah but also it's like when they did those things
they went through it so like right it's a rite of passage no and so like yeah Raquel's did it
yesterday like we're talking about it today right right right and honestly I am less focused on Raquel like
for me this is all about Tom Sandoval it's always been about Tom Sandoval I've been saying since the
day I started watching this show he's literally the worst person on the face of the planet now
everyone believes me but I feel like everyone's getting caught up in the Raquel Rachel drama
but it's like let's not fucking forget about Tom Sandoval I feel like people are forgetting also like calling her Rachel like just does nothing
for me no it's like like people are like her name is not even Raquel she's thirsty she's a stage name
okay so does Lala so does Jax Jax's name was Jason Couchy Lala's name is Lauren like it's not a good
read everyone's being like Rachel it's not a good
it's cringe it's actually just makes it a little confusing just because there are already so many
characters in this story and it's like wait who's Rachel so true okay well every night like literally
Zach comes in he's like is Vanderpump on tonight? Oh, that's so cute. It's on tomorrow, right? Tomorrow.
We're like obsessed.
It's so good.
It's so good.
And the thing is, even though we haven't gotten to the meat and potatoes yet, like I'm still living for it.
So yeah, I don't think they should edit anything.
I think that they should.
It's playing out in a way that's really letting us see like the villain origin story.
The villain origin story. So the trailer that drop was really good and now
I need to go watch it again knowing that Sheena's bucket hat was last week yes yes those are yeah
and then are you ready for part two of Bravo news that I found so exciting Summer House star
Sierra Miller is Bravo's first Victoria's Secret model I love this Sierra is the first Bravo
to become a Victoria's Secret model posing in bras, panties, robes, and athletic wear for a new photo shoot featured on the lingerie
giant's website. She told page six style exclusively. It's been a dream for as long as I
can remember to work for Victoria's secret. She joined the show as a primarily as a working ICU
nurse, but she's been modeling since she was just 15. She said, I put myself through nursing school working as a model so it's always been a positive venture for me of course working as a
Victoria's Secret model is the ultimate goal uh she said she's still thoroughly shocked when she
saw herself splashed across the VS website the pictures are absolutely gorgeous and she said
she hopes to continue working with the brand and would love to walk in the iconic Victoria's Secret fashion show which is set to return this year after a four-year
hiatus that was going to be my question um I'm assuming if they're doing like this big partnership
with her that it's definitely a possibility I don't know why it wouldn't be she's perfection
and I mean if anyone from Bravo was going to become a Victoria's Secret model it had
to be someone from Summer House because they're always in bathing suits um and so it being Sierra
is perfection I didn't even know she had modeling experience that's just like a cherry on top like
her thing is like model slash nurse I don't remember that I just remember nurse oh I remember
there was a model in there well I love that and I think this is great I'm so happy for her yeah if the show is like a walking fashion show where they're gonna have angels influencers
brand ambassadors walking like I really hope she walks but I feel like I don't know where I saw
this I think it might have been in our comments like someone said the Victoria's Secret fashion
show like isn't going to be like a fashion show I don't know it's like maybe so it's not a
real fashion show that feels like a real fashion maybe it's like a presentation or I don't know
I don't know what I can't remember what I heard but like something about it threw a wrench into
things for me all right I mean we'll wait and see but I hope she walks I'm glad that she's open to
walking you know because obviously there's so much negativity surrounding
the Victoria's Secret fashion show but on the one hand like it would be a huge opportunity for
someone on the other hand they might not want to be associated with like the stain of it right right
but I think for like you know a model turned nurse turned reality star it's a huge opportunity you
would never turn that down and you I don't
think that you should so I hope to see Sierra up there shaking that thing I'd rather see you up
there shaking that thing Jax you would yeah hopefully they'll have a pregnant woman and I
would love to see it I would love to see it but I'll be okay if they didn't yeah oh you but you
I wouldn't pick it you'll be out of a job oh it could be me oh my god literally
would you ever do it i feel like i would sooner do it pregnant 100 right because then nobody could
call you fat literally um i just want to say like total tangent like sorry i have no nail polish
left on my nails i was like so anxious in the thing
yesterday I left um I had like a tissue in my lap and I literally collected like chips of my
nail polish until there's nothing left and all my nails are broken like I am disgusting Claudia
that's beautiful I think I'm gonna get a manicure today if you should do something like that like a
little self-care for turdy Lou maybe like a scalp massage I can't like I can't
I have so many things to do I have to take care of my son Jackie you need to text Frank he doesn't
have two working eyes no you know I'm feeling now at the end of the show let's do a follow-up from
you know we're from where we started which was fucking dark I apologize um I'm feeling better
I think I'll make it to physical therapy okay good you might relax like that might be like
sometimes you don't need a nap you just need like to quiet your mind yeah I think you should meditate I don't think so I did it once I remember you told
me and it was so relaxing I did like a 20 minute session and it was just what I needed like because
I didn't have the time to take a nap also naps make me feel like crap and so I meditated and literally
my mind shut down it like it was like a reboot for the mind I'm just saying I think that's what
you mean think about it yeah like put on there's a million I had done it with the aura ring app
but you could do the calm app you have to listen to you have to listen to what they're saying and
they will put you in a trance.
I just don't know how people meditate.
Like how do you either like. Do a guided meditation.
Let someone tell you how.
No, I know what I'm saying.
Like how do you stop yourself from either falling asleep or like thinking about like
your anxious, you know, intrusive thoughts?
No, you either focus on what the guide is saying or if you do fall asleep, like great.
You're very relaxed.
It's very meditative to
be asleep yeah like I think towards the end I like got a couple minutes of shut eye and like
I felt really good because I didn't go into like a deep bear's nap right but I was like it was a
reboot for the mind okay I'll think about it turdiloo add it to the list well aren't you proud
of me now I'm saying i'll think about it not like
now it sucks that's so true gross it's called growth jacks it's called growth you are a grower
