Starting point is 00:00:00 Good morning, Millennials. Welcome back to the morning toast. Happy Hump Day. You made it to the middle of the week. Congratulations. Celebrate by humping someone you love. Jackie, get over here. Might I suggest Bryce and Dyson? That's always a good suggestion.
Starting point is 00:00:16 I'm never going to turn down an opportunity to hump rice or dice. No, no, no, no. Happy Hump Day. Can't believe it's only Wednesday, yet here we are. No, it's better. You know what it is? It's better than Tuesday.
Starting point is 00:00:27 And it's definitely better than Monday. 100% now starting now we'll be cruising down through the end of the week it's like downhill you know yeah the week is a hill it's an incline and monday tuesday wednesday is the journey up wednesday on down yeah and you know what's cool about wednesdays even though obviously it's not ideal it's not the best day of the week you're allowed to start having hope and that can really fuel you through a long work day yeah and everybody hates wednesdays you know so it's not like we're complaining do people hate Wednesdays? Yeah, because it's like the hump day. I don't hate Wednesdays at all. Like, I'm like, oh my God, okay, now it's like we can start looking forward to the weekend. Like on Monday and Tuesday, the weekend is so far out of my mind. Tuesday is really a nice day. A nice day. I think
Starting point is 00:01:10 Tuesday's worse. Tuesday never hurt anybody. I disagree. Monday, of course, is extremely nefarious. Problematic. Monday needs to be canceled. And I know a lot of people give flack on Monday, but I think a lot of that energy should be reserved for Tuesday. Tuesday's arguably worse. We've already been through a whole Monday and you feel like you deserve for it to be like Thursday, but Tuesday, you've been eased into the week. It's not as dark as the Monday. You know, whatever you had waiting for you on Monday you accomplished. And Tuesday, you can look anew. And on Tuesday, you're ready for the week. No, no, I totally disagree. But then on Wednesday, you're like, it's still the week? No, on Wednesday, I'm like, there is a glimmer of hope. Like,
Starting point is 00:01:47 I can see this tiniest bit of light out of this tunnel. On Tuesday, I'm still very much in the tunnel. You know what I mean? Okay, fine. And then Thursday's just gorgeous. Friday is spectacular. You know what? I'm going to have another hot take. Oh, you can't be all negative all the time. Bitch, I wasn't, let me say what I wasn't going to say. I think Thursdays are incredible.
Starting point is 00:02:05 The truckers for Thursday are here. I think Thursdays are incredible. And like I kind of feel like sometimes Friday is like a little bit of a letdown. Like it's kind of anticlimactic. No, it's like, I like Thursday because we're so close to the weekend. We have it to look forward to. And then Friday, it's almost like it's already here. And you need to start appreciating it.
Starting point is 00:02:24 Like, I don't like when something is here. I like when it's almost here. The build up, yeah. I mean, I have like an adoration for Fridays, obviously because I'm human, but also because like growing up on Fridays in school, we would always get out super early because it was Shabbat and we went to a Jewish school. We used to get out at 5 p.m. Yeah, on regular days.
Starting point is 00:02:40 Fridays we got out at like three. No, and like the nice time of the year, like 12.30, 1.30. When it would get dark really early. So some of my fondest memories are like just being done with the week and having like a nice window to nap before Shabbat dinner and like just the weekend could come. And that's, like, for so long been my attachment to Fridays, but I don't really have that experience with Fridays anymore. No. So I kind of am loving Thursdays.
Starting point is 00:03:02 Okay. Do your thing. Thursdays are the new Friday, especially if you are your own businesswoman and you can cancel work on Friday. And it's summer Fridays. And we also can't ever. Like, we never cancel a show that wasn't planned to be canceled unless we have the no-no virus. Ooh. Don't bring about.
Starting point is 00:03:15 Like, we talk such a big game. Like, yeah, we work when we want to when we don't, when we don't. We are a slave to the schedule. Yeah, we try and keep it really tight. And like, I know it seems like maybe we take off. awful lot of time, but we try our hardest. It's always has to be like planned in advance, as for PTO, like, unless it's the no-no virus.
Starting point is 00:03:31 That's really the only time we ever abruptly canceled a show. And honestly, I really don't want to go down that road talking about the no-no virus because over the weekend, no, no, no. Over the weekend, me and Ben were with you and a couple of your friends and we were telling them about the no-no virus because Ben had caught the no-no virus at your friend Rebecca's birthday party. And so we gave him like the whole rundown. And honestly, I feel fatigued and traumatized from that conversation.
Starting point is 00:03:52 I can't talk about it. No, I don't, I have no desire. You're free from desire? Free from desire. So it's Wednesday, which means we're going to be hilarious, obviously. It also means we have dear toasters, our advice segment, so that'll be at the end of the show. And we've got a couple stories to tell you about some legal news, some more Disney news. Claudia picked four out of the five, and you guys can guess which ones are which.
Starting point is 00:04:15 Yeah, yeah, yeah. That'll be fun. Totally. Also, since it's Wednesday, I'm being reminded of two things. One last week when we were doing Dear Toasters, I don't know if I was just like forklempt or overwhelmed, but we had three submissions and I only read two of them. That's really funny.
Starting point is 00:04:31 I have no idea why. And then yesterday's episode, you called me and you were like, wait, did you realize that when we were talking about the saint and Pete Davidson story, we went off on a tangent and literally never recap the story? We never even discussed what they did, who they were, what you need to know. We just saw the word cheesecake factory and we went down the rabbit hole. And we never came back to it because I was like, you know, writing a little caption. Like we talk about boom, boom and boom.
Starting point is 00:04:53 So I went to look at the stories and I was like, what did we say about Pete and St. Nothing. No, we talked about my internship, California Pizza Kitchen and Cheesecake Factory. Yeah. We are nothing if not professional. You just never know where the show is going to take you. And like, okay, Pete and St. And went to Walmart.
Starting point is 00:05:08 Now you know. No, and you really can't throw Cheesecake Factory into a story without expecting people to, you know, go off on tangents. Harp and Larp and Larp. Harp and Larp. That's what we did. We're the Harpers and Larpers and Larpers. We are. Harp and Larp and Larp and Larp and Larp and Larp and Larp.
Starting point is 00:05:21 Harpen, larpin, harpen, larpin, harpen, larpen, harpen, harpen, larpen. So what's it with you? I started a new book last night. Well. I finished my book on the plaza. I told you guys yesterday, but then there were a bunch of pictures in the back, so I had to tap through to actually get the, you know, credit for having Reddit. I rated a 3.5.
Starting point is 00:05:39 You know, I don't think it could have ever been any better than that, but now I have all this useless information about the plaza. So if you want to know anything about the plaza, come and ask me, and I've probably already forgotten. Then I started this book called The Lost Summers of Newport. It's by three authors, Trifecta. One of them is Beatrice Williams, who is a historical fiction writer who I've never read, but she's like a Kristen Hannah.
Starting point is 00:06:02 And I don't know why I've never read one of her books, so I'm excited. And it's about like Gilded Age Summers and Newport very much like the show. So I've heard good things, and that's just my scene. That's my scene. You're such a Newport, early. 1899 Newport is my scene. That's where I'm at. Catch me?
Starting point is 00:06:18 Looking for me? It's 1889 and I'm a Newport. Right. And now I want to go back to Newport and do like a historical tour. Well, no. I'll go with you. You would like it. And now that you've watched Gilded Age, you don't think.
Starting point is 00:06:30 No, for sure. But like when we went to Newport last time, we did like wineries, bars. Like that's very much, I think, like the energy I will be, you know, bringing if we do go to Newport. Of course. But we could do one day where we look at the houses. Like you did in second grade. I have been to the houses in Rhode Island. In second grade.
Starting point is 00:06:43 But like, she couldn't have cared. Also, we do need to go back to Newport because the last time we went. went to Newport was the situation with the extremely hasty flush. Yes. And we have to eradicate that memory from our brains entirely. Yeah. And if you don't know we're talking about because you're new from TikTok, go look at our episode, The Extremely Hasty Flush.
Starting point is 00:07:01 It happens in the beginning. And it's a really traumatizing moment, and it's a teachable moment for everyone who's ever going to use a rest stop. In Connecticut, because they do all these high-tech rest stops. They're really gorgeous, and congratulations to everyone in Connecticut, but they got really aggressive with their flushers. Also, it's a podcast-only episode, so don't go looking for it on YouTube. Good advice. Yeah, I feel like, you know, every, I feel like, you know, a lot of creators and
Starting point is 00:07:25 YouTube personalities and influencers are tied to a cause. You know, they are a cause-driven platform. And I really feel like we should be championing the cause of no automatic toilets at rest stops. No, you don't know what you're going to find when you start. That's a can of worms. You don't want to open. No, I think I'm going to open it. No, you don't want toilet bowls that are full. No, what's so, that's true. That's very true. But what's so annoying is that, like, automatic flush means, like, it's a renovated bathroom.
Starting point is 00:07:57 And it's like, why can we have renovated bathrooms just with regular flushes, you know? It's like, I don't want to give up the new, clean, renovated bathroom. Yeah. You know? Yeah. I guess they could just be, like, a little less hasty is what I would say. There should be, like, a 10-second timer. Just in case you drop your keys.
Starting point is 00:08:13 Totally. Traumatizing. To the rental jaguar. Stop. Like, I literally can. To the jaguar that you. rented you splurged and you were like what could go wrong find you two girls who will walk into a rental car a budget rental car and be like give us the nicest car you have and they actually had a
Starting point is 00:08:30 jaguar that was and it was so fun to drive it like i hate that i can't even reminisce on that weekend like we had so much fun oh i there are two separate events for me you weren't driving because when i was reading the book i forgot about the flush you weren't driving you weren't the one who dropped the keys and you weren't also the one who secretly like thought she had covid i woke up that morning like with such a painful, like, feeling in my throat. And we were driving everyone back. So I'm like, I'm going to drive so fast to get everyone. I don't want to, I was, had the window open.
Starting point is 00:08:55 I was like, I totally have COVID. We all had colds when we got home from that. Remember we like, I didn't have COVID. But like, you know, when you like, during that time, every time you woke up, like, hung over, you were like, oh my God, I have COVID. Yeah, but even if you had it then, we were all in such close quarters the whole time. Like, we were on the same team.
Starting point is 00:09:10 No, I just like had anxiety. And I'm like, I don't want anyone to know that. Like, I'm not feeling well. So let me just book it. We were making incredible time. It is like a five-hour drive, and I was going to 90 miles an hour. We were going to make it back in two and a half hours. Like dead ass, we stopped for one motherfucking second.
Starting point is 00:09:21 And literally the whole day was derailed. This grandma. We had to wait in the parking lot, wait for a local taxi, wait for the AAA. It was horrible. Yeah. I'm glad we really love that. Yeah. But there are two separate things to me.
Starting point is 00:09:33 And also, just be glad that it was Claudia who dropped the keys. Because if it was anybody else, Claudia would have murdered them. Murder. Murder. murder on the freeway. That was the general consensus of the group. Like, we're annoyed at you, but thank God it was you because, like, you would be so much more annoyed at us.
Starting point is 00:09:51 And while I can definitely see how someone would think that of me, I would never forgive whoever it was. I really actually don't agree, you know? I think I would be relieved that it wasn't me. And I think, like, I mean, I had nowhere to go. If I was, like, in a rush, like, to make an appointment or something, I think I would have been just as helpful in calling the taxi and everything. I'm a doer, you know, I do.
Starting point is 00:10:12 I don't think I would have been. as scary as everyone thought I was going to be. And it actually kind of hurt my feelings that everyone thought I was going to be so, like, scary. Good. I'm glad that it resonated with you because that's how scary you would have been. But I wouldn't have. I'm telling you. No, Claudia.
Starting point is 00:10:25 No, I'm telling you, I probably would have thought it was funny. If it was on someone else's, like, for me, the rental car was under my name, my license, my credit card, and it was a fucking Jaguar that we had to leave in the middle of Connecticut. So, like, if it was on someone else's ass, I don't think I would have been so stressed, you know? Okay.
Starting point is 00:10:45 I really believe that. Just know they's health and just know. I am knowing myself. That she also probably would have not waited with the team and called an Uber and left. Oh, no. That's really what you think of me. I never would do that. I'm a girl's girl.
Starting point is 00:10:58 Okay. The only thing that was like, thank God. There were so many thank God. One, that it was Claudia and no one else. Two, the car was open. The car was open. Imagine if all of our stuff was locked in there. We would have had to wait with the car, wait for it to get open.
Starting point is 00:11:10 But thankfully, we were able to get our stuff. stuff and, like, leave the car and budget came and picked it up. Honestly, shout out to budget. Yeah. I was waiting, like, months later to get a charge $100,000 for the Jaguar. Just wait until you, like, go to buy a house and your credit scores in the tubes and you're like, what happened? And they're like, you never return the Jaguar.
Starting point is 00:11:26 That's true. But I do check my credit quite often. So I think I would know. Oh, my God. I did get, like, a big charge from them, like, for the AAA. It's like $2,500. Yeah, that seems fair. But that's not the price of a Jaguar.
Starting point is 00:11:38 Sounds like the end of the Redheads. That seems fair. Every time you rate the book. That's funny. We do the average of all of our ratings, so it's fair? Yeah. Snitch every single time, because I've... That seems fair.
Starting point is 00:11:46 That seems fair. You know what? Math is fair. That's the thing about math. It's a magic number. Okay. Instead of going down this triggering... Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:58 Retramatizing. ...memory lane. Let's get into the fast five stories that you need to know before you wake up and take a bite out of your morning toast.

Our first story, a little legal news, Todd and Julie Chrisley have been found guilty of bank fraud and tax evasion. Reality stars Todd and Julie Crisley were found guilty of bank fraud and tax Evasion Team TMZ reported on Tuesday. According to a court clerk for the Northern District of Georgia, the couple's accountant Peter Tatatino was also found guilty on a series of related charges, including aiding and abetting the filing of false tax returns. A sentencing date has yet to be
Starting point is 00:13:56 scheduled and the stars are currently free on bond. Todd's attorney told TMZ they plan to appeal the jury's decision saying, we are disappointed in the verdict. They were initially indicted in August 2019 and a new indictment was filed in February of this year. Prosecutors alleged that the duo submitted fake documents to banks when applying for loans and that Julie also submitted false credit reports in bank statements when trying to rent a house in California. I mean, I love what they're like, we're going to appeal it. The verdict isn't true. Like, this isn't like a murder.
Starting point is 00:14:25 He said, she said, did she, didn't she? Like, there's literally a paper trail, whether you paid your taxes or not, did you evade them? So I just feel like that's like such a lame response. Like, you don't just get found guilty on tax evasion. No one's ever been framed for tax evasion. Like, you either paid your taxes or you did it. So that is the first thought I have. And the second thought I have is like, obviously I'm not surprised by this.
Starting point is 00:14:45 I think, like, if you've been at all familiar with the Crisleys over the years, it's very unclear what they do for a living. Really? Yeah. Like, and especially in the early seasons, they had this big house. And Todd was like this big, like, real estate is like what people say they do when they don't have a job. Right. Of course, they're very successful people.
Starting point is 00:15:01 It's so ambiguous. You could be at any different, like, level of real estate. Right. You could be agent renting apartments. You could be the biggest developer in New York City. Right. So it's just like this big, it kind of gives the vibe like when someone says, like, I'm an entrepreneur. Like, what does that mean? Yeah. Yeah. No, it leaves a lot open for interpretation. It requires follow-up questions. Yeah. So in the first couple seasons, like, they came on the show and like I remember Todd was like, I've made my money. I want to make the next big department store in Atlanta. And obviously never came to fruition. But they were always like living this extravagant life. And it wasn't clear what they did for a living. Julie was like, oh, stay-at-home mom. And Todd was kind of like retired. It was really bizarre. I've never really watched an entire episode of the show. So if you had asked me to like tell you who they are and what they do, like I kind
Starting point is 00:15:47 of thought he was a preacher. Honestly, I totally see that. He gives like preacher vibes because I feel like he's always like preaching to his family. Yeah, no. And I think he's definitely a man of the Lord. And it's like, Chris Lee knows best. What does he know? What God knows because he's a preacher. That's the literally best call you've ever made. But no, he's not a preacher, but he does preach quite a bit. So it's always felt like they were living beyond their means in a confusing way. And then there was like a period where they downsized, which is never good on reality TV. Like they're always like, well, the kids are in college. Like, no, it's always a little like, what's going on? So they moved to like this smaller house. It was still really nice, but like much
Starting point is 00:16:25 smaller. And they've always just been confusing about their finances. So this does not surprise me in the least. Yeah, it'll be interesting to see what kind of sentencing they get. And also, So the verdict comes just weeks after Todd's ex-business partner, Mark Braddock, claimed that the reality star cheated on Julie with him and that they paid off a blackmeller to keep the alleged gay affair a secret. So there's a lot. It's layered. It's layered like most things.
Starting point is 00:16:51 Okay. I mean, aside from that. And the show still is not canceled. That's so crazy. Aside from that gay affair thing, it is really sad to see like another reality star fall into like this trope of tax evasion. Like, it's becoming, like, standard for, like, people who become famous kind of overnight make money. It's like, it's giving Mike Sorrentino.
Starting point is 00:17:14 Yeah. Well, there's two things. One, I think a lot of reality stars or people who become famous really quickly don't know how or that they have to pay the amount of taxes that they do. And that's, like, Mike's situation. I mean, I don't really. No, I think Mike's was nefarious. Oh, really? I think it was, like, more intentional than that.
Starting point is 00:17:30 But I think that happens a lot. I don't think you necessarily go to jail for that. But then there's also, like, intentional fraud, which seems to be what this is. Jo Judice. Yeah. Yeah. Well, as much as it pains me because you know I hate the IRS, like, you can't fuck with that.
Starting point is 00:17:46 I'm like, you've got to pay your taxes. You've got to pay your taxes. I've thought about not doing it many times. Like, one of these days, like, I'm just going to stop. But today is not that day. And then we'll be reading about you. I know, but like finally people will be talking about me. Is it worth it?
Starting point is 00:17:59 If they let me go to like one of those nice prison, no, no, no. Sorry, no. No. not for you no so um wishing them you know best of luck in your sentencing i feel like this isn't the type of case where you get like a plea deal because there's like nothing to no one to rat out well maybe like restitution could help yeah but i don't know like how much money they've got i don't know either we shall see best of luck we shall see best of luck next story little casting news the role that a million girls will kill for is going to julia gardner she has been
Starting point is 00:18:33 offered the Madonna role in the universal biopic of the star. Inventing Anna actress Julia Garner has been offered the role of Madonna in a forthcoming biopic about the pop icon. Source is familiar with the project told variety. She has emerged the favorite from over a dozen candidates, one insider added, and has for months been speculated as a frontrunner for the part. A performance Madonna will shepherd herself as director. Garner's team is considering and expected to accept the offer, said another source,
Starting point is 00:18:59 so the offer is out. It is not confirmed, signed, sealed, and delivered. I mean, this is just reminding me of, like, years ago when we were talking about the casting for Elvis. Like, it's the role a million girls wanted. And they kind of went with, like, the not super obvious choice with Austin Butler and with Julia Garner. Now, people are obviously, like, using her hair as, like, the thing in, like, all the pictures. Because, yeah, in the pictures, they do a side by side. It's pretty, it's pretty good.
Starting point is 00:19:24 Yeah, like, her curly, blonde, natural hair, like, is really similar to the look Madonna had when she became, like, an icon. so I see it visually. I'm not like a huge Madonna girl and I'm not a huge Julia Gardner girl so I have to say I probably won't see this movie. Yeah, I agree. Also, some of the other names that had been floated were Florence Pugh.
Starting point is 00:19:46 I don't see it. Euphoria star Alexa Demi. Oh, the only thing is they don't really look alike. Well, you can make anyone look like anyone. Odessa Young, B.B. Rexa and Sky Ferreira. But I remember reading on Dumois once that Liz Gillies was up for the role and now I can't get past that because she would be amazing because she's an amazing actress and an amazing singer and like do these girlies sing i don't know
Starting point is 00:20:10 that's such a good call and it's kind of ruining this movie for me because now i'm just like what could have been yeah should have been liz yeah i was also thinking um and i don't know what like age they're looking for but um what's her name lily james she was so good in pam and Tommy like irreconizable like i just see her as like this downtown abbey Cinderella like Princess Royal vibe. But in Pam and Tommy, she was like so transformative. She like wasn't even herself. So I really could see her doing this well. Yeah, but I mean, it's Julia Gardner. Yeah. So we should stop like larping as it being anyone else. But would it be an episode of the Morning Toast if we weren't live action roleplaying? No. And I agree. This doesn't like do that much
Starting point is 00:20:51 for me. But I'm sure it'll be good. She's a really good actress. Yeah, she's very good. She was good as Anna Delvey, yeah? She was very good as Anna Delvey because like I literally hated her. Yeah, you know, I still haven't seen it. Really? I'm not going to see it. Well, like the fanfare is over now. I missed it. Yeah, no, I successfully, because I had just given birth, so I successfully was able to escape.
Starting point is 00:21:09 But, like, if you are ever looking for something, like, it was good. And it was, like, really interesting because I feel like, even though we all became, like, invested in the store and we all read the Vanity Fair article at the time, like, the ins and outs of, like, how she actually did it? Like, how do you almost convince the biggest bank in the world, like literally a fortress? I think it was called Fortress to give you money. Like, the way in which she did it was actually kind of interesting to find out, like, exactly how. Can learn some tips?
Starting point is 00:21:35 Yeah, if you're a fraudster in the making, con woman wannabe. Like, definitely check it out. Yeah, but I would also imagine, like, one, I'm sure this sort of series inspires plenty of con men and women. But it also alerts other people, like, this is what people do. Also, my only problem with inventing Anna is, like, they took it way too far. Like, when it was over, like, the article came out, Anna was wearing yada, yada, yada. It should have been over. But, like, the journalists, like, just had to go to Germany and meet her fast.
Starting point is 00:21:59 Emily. Like, stop. It was, it was like classic, like annoying journalist, you know? Yeah, classic. Classic. Are you ready for our next story? I think that I am. And just like that, season two storyline will include Samantha's character. The Sex and the City spin-off series, and just like that, will welcome back the show's beloved Samantha Jones, albeit virtually. The HBO Max series, which was renewed for season two, star Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon, and Kristen Davis,
Starting point is 00:22:27 and a much buzzed-about absence from the original series, star Kim Cottrell. But fret not showrunner Michael Patrick King revealed to variety the show's storyline will feature the dearly missed PR guru. King, who previously said the door wasn't open for her return, was asked if fans can expect to see Samantha's character creep into the storyline of the upcoming season. A bold and clear-cut yes was his answer. He remained tight-lipped about his plans for the show telling the outlet, it's also new right now.
Starting point is 00:22:54 One of my big rules is don't tell things until they are real. Okay, completely aside, when you got my lunch order yesterday at my house. What the fuck? Was there a soup? I'm just remembering that I ordered a soup. And I never got it. Okay. First of all, what?
Starting point is 00:23:11 Something about this story made me think of soup. Okay, so second of all, Zach was the one who opened the bag and passed me your wrap so I could put it on a plate for you. Got it. So you would have to ask Zach because I didn't even open the bag and get my lunch. I wasn't hungry. Okay, got it. Maybe it's in the fridge. But I just remember, like, I was looking forward to that soup.
Starting point is 00:23:26 and then I don't know where it went. Okay, thanks. I don't know. I have no information for you. I'm a joke. And back to the story, I feel like this is a big nothing burger. Okay. Because he said, will her character be like some part of the plot?
Starting point is 00:23:42 Yes. Her character was part of the plot in the first season. Carrie was texting with Samantha while she was in Paris. Yeah, like when they said virtually again, like maybe Carrie's on a Zoom with Samantha, but we don't see Samantha. And maybe they get like some Kim Kutral impersonator to have a voiceover. anything to cut out the only person
Starting point is 00:23:58 who's worth watching on the show. 100%. The only other way I can see them doing this is them recasting Samantha, which I think would be like literally the worst idea of all time because Samantha was a great character for sure, but she was really made exceptional by Kim Cottrell. It's not just a role that anyone could play.
Starting point is 00:24:14 Totally. It's like Moira, you know? No, that would be insane. That would be so stupid. I hope they don't do that. But like, so Ben was in L.A. last week and on his way home, he flew United, and they have and just like that
Starting point is 00:24:26 and he started to watch it and he came home and like he had so many thoughts he's like so what episode like when does Samantha come back because I'm not going to finish it just like tell me I'm like I don't know how to tell you this but she's like not on the show heartbroken he was like what he obviously doesn't keep up with pop culture
Starting point is 00:24:43 and know that like the Kim Cottrell Sarah Jessica Parker drama is like a thing so he was absolutely devastated he said it was the worst show he's ever seen in his life like cringy so try hard spoiler alert he couldn't get over that they killed Big. Like, he,
Starting point is 00:24:57 imagine, like, not caring so, like, caring so little about pop culture that not knowing a year later that Big dies. Yeah. Like, could never be me. No. Never. No, it's crazy that they, like, brought back the show just to kill Big. Yeah, and Samantha.
Starting point is 00:25:10 Like, yeah, the two more likable characters. And I have to say, I remember recapping it. Like, I did actually really enjoy the show, but it was like a hate watching thing. And I don't think, like, if I had to, you know, give a critical analysis of the show, what I say it was very good. but I did enjoy it. Well, I mean, they would, they should bring Samantha back
Starting point is 00:25:31 and they still won't and they'll just tease shit like this and that's annoying for the fans. But I don't think Samantha's return is their choice. I think it's Samantha's choice. I think now it's both, you know, because she's also like trash them and it's really Sarah Jessica Parker's show and I don't know if she would have her back.
Starting point is 00:25:47 Yeah. I'm just glad to be like extra creative from the situation because I don't watch and so I have no horse in this race. Yeah, no meaning. either and honestly I don't even know if I would want Kim control back because it would be so awkward between them I don't think that they could recapture the magic that the four of them had back in the day but it was awkward back in the day too when you listen to stories yes but it wasn't as bad as it is now of course of course and I think everyone would just be watching being like
Starting point is 00:26:09 these people hate each other yeah and it's hard to watch movies with people who hate each other kissing booth too Jacob Allorty and Joey king yeah literally I think half of their scenes were filmed in like a split screen because they refused to be in the same room about no chemistry no you can't date if you're going to ruin the franchise a hundred percent like either do it or don't in your contract it should be like are you mature enough to if you fall in love with this person be able to work with them again no the contract should be like are you planning on dating your co-star yes okay I will only fork over the salary if you plan to date them up until this franchise is over are you open to dating your co-star yes are you open to if
Starting point is 00:26:47 you break up still being an adult and being able to work with them yeah yes I have to say like Not that I know anything about the situation, but from the kissing booth, too, I do feel like it was Jacob Allorty who, like, couldn't stand Joey King. I don't know if he was hurt, but I think the vibe that I got, which is based on absolutely nothing, is that he was the one who, like, made it awkward. Okay, so he'll need to have that in his contract going forward. Yeah, and he loves to date co-stars. He was spotted with Zendaya, like...
Starting point is 00:27:12 It's not for everyone. It's not for everyone. Our next story, the internet is losing its mind over a couple who said they had Minnie and Mickey at their wedding instead of food. Reddit users went off on. a person who claimed in a forum that she and her husband skipped catering their wedding so they can afford an appearance by Mickey and Minnie Mouse. My fiance and I just got married two months ago and we had our dream wedding, the Reddit user wrote. However, she wrote, she's a self-described
Starting point is 00:27:36 huge Disney fan, quote, about a month and a half ago, my aunt started posting on Facebook about how disappointed she was with the whole ordeal and a few guests sided with her. The cause to have both Minnie and Mickey for a good chunk of time, 30 minutes, was almost exactly what our parents allotted for our catering budget. So we scheduled an appearance. during our first dance and our wedding photos for going served food, though there were plenty of facilities at the venue where people could eat. And then the post was removed by their own food. Yeah, by their own food.
Starting point is 00:28:04 The moderators said that they removed posts from feeds for a variety of reasons, including keeping communities safe, civil, and true to their purpose. But the screenshot of that girl's, like, testimony has made its way around the internet because you can delete everything you want, but the internet lives forever and remembers everything. Okay, so my thoughts on this are twofold, obviously. My first is that, um, forgoing food to, like, sorry, forgoing food to have Mickey and Minnie at your wedding is so unwell. Like, it's delusional, but it's your wedding and you can really do whatever you want.
Starting point is 00:28:42 So like, don't invite me, but like, sure, I empower other couples to make their wedding exactly how they want to be. But you are an unwell human being. but your aunt going on Facebook and like starting a thread a month later about your wedding like oh my god okay you missed one meal calm the fuck down it's definitely weird and definitely worth gossiping about behind the bride's back 100%. But to start a thread on Facebook like that's kind of next level diabolical. Yeah I agree but if Anne had started this we would never know so I'm grateful to the ante but I'm just going to play devil's advocate for a second you know because we all eat three meals a day. It happens.
Starting point is 00:29:20 every day most of the time some people more some people less and to miss one meal so that these people could have their dream whatever it is you know everyone dreams differently like it's their wedding it just meant like you didn't have lunch but they got mickey and minnie in their pictures forever okay small price to pay i have two things to say small price to pay i have two things to say one if these people were on four weddings they literally would have come in last place you ever watch four weddings no i'm never even heard of it what oh man me and olivia used to be obsessed for the show. Can I tell you what it's about? It's a TLC show. Four brides are competing. They all go to their, they all plan their weddings, and it's not sponsored at all. Like,
Starting point is 00:29:57 they all plan it on their own budget, and each of the four brides goes to each other's weddings and grades it based on experience, food, overall fun, the dress. And then at the end of the show, all the couples are waiting together at like this bachelor-style mansion, and whoever gets the highest score gets a free honeymoon. Cute. It's a really good show, but the brides are fucking evil. Like literally, if they have to wait one extra second for their food or like if their food comes out like lukewarm but not warm enough, three, three out of ten for food.
Starting point is 00:30:30 It shouldn't be the fellow brides judging each other because of course they're going to want to sabotage so they can win. It should be like professional party goers, say you and I who are the professional judges and don't have a horse in the race. Their scoring system does try and negate people giving intentionally low scores. Like, I think, I forget how they do it, but they have a system. It's not perfect for sure, but it's such a good show.
Starting point is 00:30:54 And, like, people, the other brides find the most insane things to complain about at other people's weddings just to justify giving a lower score. And if this couple was on for weddings, like, I could just imagine the episode. So that was the first thing that came to mind. Second of all, I do hear what you're saying. Like, yes, to forego a meal. However, and there were vendors around. However, there were people traveling for your wedding.
Starting point is 00:31:16 Do you live in Orlando? You know what I mean? Is this a destination wedding? I don't think so. No? I don't think so. It sounds like it was like an afternoon wedding. Okay.
Starting point is 00:31:23 Like a luncheon. I just feel like if you're not going to serve food, like you do have to let people know. For sure. You do have to let people know so they could bring a snack or they could bring, you know, some money for the vending machine or the vendors. I would literally bring in like a fiber one bar in my clutch. Or have a big meal before or after. Yeah. No.
Starting point is 00:31:42 I guess like the concept that people are like hanging on to is like instead of giving, you know, the people you love in your your life like an experience to remember you had Mickey and Minnie and you're grown adults like that's what I think of course would I choose it for myself no I value food more than I value Mickey and Minnie but say it wasn't say it was like Kim of course I would I would forgo you'll starve I would forgo food for Kim 100% and that's the same thing like don't yuck their yums say some people wanted to hire the Streis brothers to come to their wedding bryson's strice will be in all of your pictures But Bryce and Streis would do it for free. That's the difference.
Starting point is 00:32:19 Okay, but say like their fee, even just to fly them out to your wedding, was the same as the food. So they foregoed food to have the Streis Brothers at your wedding and do your pictures. What are you going to do? I guess it's just the way that she wrote the post, like how obvious. Like, of course we let go over the food. Right. And it's in a forum where you post to find out if you're in the wrong
Starting point is 00:32:40 or to tell someone else they're in the wrong or to sit back and just watch. That is a great concept for a forum. Right. So that's why everybody is weighing. in because that's the point of the form. She asked. Right. That's interesting. So I agree. Like, it could never be me. And if that's going to be you, like, sure, but like, I do think you're, like, ill. Like, not okay. Of course. And at the end of the day, if I were a guest at this wedding, I would never stop making fun of them. I probably would never talk to you again. Yeah, no, I would be
Starting point is 00:33:06 hungry. I'd be hangary. But I just, I always like to offer an alternate person. No, and you're, like, you are right. Like, at the end of the day, it's your wedding. Like, your wedding is your choice. however you choose to spend your money like a hundred percent it's just probably the weirdest thing I've ever heard in my life it's a weird choice for sure could never be me but like I empower you to make your own choices yeah that's freedom yeah you know freedom freedom you got it no we were going back and forth on freedom speaking of singing are you ready for our fifth and final story yeah oh shit you didn't look ready How is this going to go?
Starting point is 00:33:48 Wherever the chips may fall. We're even now. Okay. So you'll never know what I'm going to do. Wow, you're such a loose canon. It's the final story. Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do. It's a final story.
Starting point is 00:34:09 Mickey and Minnie. Go fuck yourselves. I want my dinner now. Are you like it? Are you looking? I want my dinner now. No. Scary.
Starting point is 00:34:37 The scariest wedding guest. The scariest wedding guest. scariest wedding guest of all time. She wants her dinner now. No. That's like how they used to sing in Temple. That is how they sung. Shama.
Starting point is 00:34:57 If you and Ben weren't like an influencer duo, you would be a rabbi and a canter duo. Yeah. Or just two cantors, duetting. Actually, but you guys would like be. There's a room for, this town's only big enough for one canter. Each of you would want the last note.
Starting point is 00:35:13 By the way, for those who don't know what a canter is, like when you go to temple, there's a rabbi and a canter, and the canter is like a really beautiful voice and sings all the prayers. And for a brief period in my life, like, I really thought I could be the next big canter. And Ben really has it in him. You guys heard how we did the final story. Like, that's the exact tenor of a camper. I'm sorry, of a canter. I keep, like, in my head, I was like, I'm about to say camber. I'm like, no, camper.
Starting point is 00:35:38 I want my dinner now. Amen. Our fifth and final story, a little tech news. IOS 16 will let you edit and even unsend texts in messages. What did you call it? IOS. It's iOS, right? I don't see iOS.
Starting point is 00:36:02 That's like the chapstick. It's EOS. It's iOS. Like say it how you want, but I just want to let you know it's iOS. You don't think there's people who call it iOS? I just found out there is you. There's people like me. we can start a community.
Starting point is 00:36:14 Anyways, during its WWDC 2020 event, Apple announced a bunch of new features on the way for its software platforms, including the ability to edit messages you've already sent in its messages app. Apple Software Engineering VP announced the changes while discussing iOS 16 updates, adding that users will be able to unsend messages
Starting point is 00:36:33 and mark threads unread to easily revisit them later, covering three of the most requested features from IMessage users. Unsend messages, edit, messages and mark threads unread to easily this is what I need this is what I need because usually I said what I said and I meant it but I need the ability if I open a message to leave it unread just like I do with my emails to know that I need to come back to it 100% I completely forget about text messages all the time because I open them forget about them and move on to be honest like the fact that Apple has to have like a whole presentation to add like the unread feature is so stupid like
Starting point is 00:37:09 put it in an update like you don't need to make like a whole conference about it it's so simple Yeah, they do their conference for like other things and, you know, showing us the new iPad or this or that. And now it's really like their biggest PR thing and people could be get used to it and like people sit around like waiting for it to go live. No, people like literally stand outside and live stream themselves. Which is an interesting way to spend your day. But like other people have Mickey and Minnie at their wedding. Right, right. Everybody's different.
Starting point is 00:37:33 They also said that the edit or recall for a message will be up to 15 minutes after sending it. But what if the person has already seen it? Yeah, no. And then you could gaslight them being to, I didn't say that. I think it'll be just like, first of all, I think it will say edited if it's been edited, and you probably also get a message when something was unsent like you do on Instagram. That's my favorite, like when I get a whole flood of, on my homepage, someone unsent a message, I'm like, oh, someone's defecting in their shame that they were once crawled at my bus.
Starting point is 00:38:03 See, like I feel like with the unsend, you should only be able to unsend a message that the person hasn't opened yet. Yeah, of course. And Apple should be able to tell you that. Like if unsend comes up as an option, that means they haven't seen it yet. And if it doesn't come up as an option, the person hasn't seen it yet. To unsend a message that someone already saw is like literally not the point. Yeah, I guess like just the shit. Like say you're like drunk texting and then the next morning could like erase all of them
Starting point is 00:38:29 and assuming the person didn't take a screenshot. Yeah, they know that you did it. But like you could wipe the slate. But they already got it. So the message is done, you know? Yeah. I do like that thing, the option for an edit button. because, like, as someone who literally cannot write one sentence without typos,
Starting point is 00:38:44 just to be able to, instead of doing asterisk, and then say the typo again, and then asterisk again. True. The asterisk is going to go out of business. I love that. I'm a frequent asterisk user, and it's really frustrating. You don't even bother. You write blah, blue, and then you're... And then two weeks later, it's like, why didn't you do that? I'm like, what did you tell me to do? Blah blue? I don't bother with you. But, like, when I'm talking to, like, other people who, like, don't know how I communicate, I have to use my asterisk. But you don't, and that's why, like, Sophia with an F thought, what did you think? 130 and 1030.
Starting point is 00:39:12 130 and 1030, exactly. Totally. But now you could edit that. But it also would require you to see the error. Yeah. So I will definitely be using edit. I would like more clarification on what the unsend rules are. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:27 It might just be like for your own peace of mind. Yeah. Like the way Instagram does it is pretty good. Yeah. You can unsend it, but you also see that they saw it. So I will never unsend something. Somebody already saw. People don't have, not everyone has their read receipts on.
Starting point is 00:39:43 On Instagram they do. No, on Twitter. Yeah, I know. So I'm curious how it's going to work. And I don't want you to know when I'm reading stuff. No, I got a new phone and like for the first month, nobody bothered to tell me my read receipts were on. No, it wasn't that.
Starting point is 00:39:56 It was like this do not disturb thing. No, this was like a while ago. Oh. And I just remember like literally shout out Matt Hardoon, Ben's friend, was like, why are your read receipts on? I'm like, what? Nobody had told me, like not even Ben. Oh, I have mad respect for people with their read receipts on
Starting point is 00:40:08 because that means that they get around to things. Like, I couldn't have my re- receipts on because you would see that I read it the moment that you sent it and I never answered. No, and it's so embarrassing, the rate in which I read, yeah, no, it's embarrassing for me. Yeah. But now with this new mark is unread, like, that's going to be game-changing for me. Game-changing. That's what I've needed. So thank you. Yeah, no, this sounds good. Yeah. People what they want. Yeah, we'll see how it goes. I'm happy for the drunk texters. Yeah. That's going to be good. Huge. Huge for the drunk texting industry.
Starting point is 00:40:39 All right, should we dive into Deer Toasters, our advice segment. Let's, and if any of you were drunk texting in any advice, there's your advice. Dear Toasters, our advice segment we do every Wednesday. You can submit your submissions at Deertoasters at gmail.com. Dear Harry, Theo, Bruce, Jackie, and Claudia. In order of importance. Me last? Wow. I moved away from my city a year ago with a solid group of friends.
Starting point is 00:41:01 We worked together for years. We went on girls trips, and we were super close. I was particularly close with one girl named Marrott. Margo. Margo got engaged a month before I moved. Leading up to it, we had talked so much about the future wedding, where we wanted to go for the Bachelorette party, and I was so excited to help her plan her big day. Fast forward a few months, my old friends, and even some new ones who were introduced three months before the engagement, were posting on social media with their, will you be my
Starting point is 00:41:23 bridesmaid gift box? I assumed fine was in the mail, but nothing ever arrived. We FaceTime once every few weeks and catch up like nothing is wrong, talk about wedding stuff, and we say that we need to get together soon. The wedding is now two months away, and I haven't been asked to be a bridesmaid go on the that's a rep party, the bridal shower, or anything except to be a guest. I feel super left out. It makes me not even want to go to the wedding anymore.
Starting point is 00:41:43 It's a flight across the country, a rental car, and a hotel for a girl who seemingly doesn't really want me and her life is anything more than acquaintance. But if I don't go, it will be awkward in our group and might sever the relationship for good. What would you do? Signed a forgotten toaster. Honestly, what? Damn. Like, there's nothing worse than, like, the feeling that you're not wanted, you know?
Starting point is 00:42:02 Yeah. And, like, sometimes you're, like, overreacting, but usually if you're feeling that way, like, it's kind of the vibe. Like, if you're not invited somewhere, it's because they didn't want to invite you. Of course, but there's a difference between not being someone's bridesmaid and, like, not being wanted, period. And I think you're not going to the wedding with sever a relationship that, like,
Starting point is 00:42:21 is still pretty good. I mean, it's a bummer that she didn't ask you to be a bridesmaid. You never know, like, what her reasons were. But it doesn't mean that you should, like, give up the whole friendship. And, like, what about the other girls? And, like, that would just sour this relationship that you have with this group of friends. to end. I understand that it's hurtful, but I don't think you should throw away the whole friendship group of friends or even just like cause such a stink. Like you'll have a fun weekend
Starting point is 00:42:47 at the wedding. Like I have so many friends closer and so I don't just consider acquaintances who were at my wedding that weren't bridesmaids or on my bachelorette party. But like that doesn't mean you don't come to my wedding. Yeah, I guess. But I don't know if they're like even still friendly anymore. So they only talk every couple of weeks because she moved. Right. So that would also explain why you weren't on the bachelorette party but like you should still go see your friends like yeah i i guess i agree like you should be happy for for other people and really not be happy for other people i'm just saying like you should be happy it's her wedding it doesn't have to be all or nothing yeah i'm very much an all or nothing girl or you're not a friend yeah i'm an all or nothing girl
Starting point is 00:43:24 like if someone didn't invite you on your batch on their bachelor at you'd say thank you so much i appreciate yes i do happen to dislike bachelor at all i do happen to dislike bachelor's parties like immensely. If someone didn't ask you not to be bridesmaid, you would say, thank you so much. You understand me. You get me. I don't want to spend the whole day at the venue getting ready. But that's me. That's not this girl. Right, right, right. So everybody is different. And also, like, if you had moved away from all your friends and you already feeling like a little untethered and then you got a blow like this, like I think that would hurt you. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think it's probably like a pile on of things for this girl. Yeah, but I don't think you should
Starting point is 00:43:59 throw away all the friendships and I think you should go and have a good time. And, And maybe when it's your bachelorette, this is what you should do. You should rush to get engaged, rush, rush, rush, like find... Get on hinge, find someone to get engaged to you, have a bachelorette party, invite everyone except that girl. Everyone except her. And then she'll know what it's like. And then you can break off the engagement and move on with your life.
Starting point is 00:44:20 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Best advice you've ever given. Literally hence down. An eye for an eye. Sometimes it's the only way. I love when you get like this. But an eye for an eye, the whole world goes blind. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:31 and that works for me honestly as long as we're all not seeing yeah right why should it just be me I completely right next up dear Claudia and Jackie I love you both so much your episodes are literally getting me
Starting point is 00:44:44 through med school it would mean so much to me if you read this on the toast one of my guy friends asked me to come over and make dinner just us last weekend cute it has always been friend vibes between us but I was kind of trying to keep an open mind because he's a really nice guy we made dinner we were watching TV afterwards
Starting point is 00:44:57 and low key I thought it was kind of awkward and I couldn't see us becoming more than friends After a while I went to the bathroom And I noticed that the medicine cabinet Was left slightly open Sure, sure it was After I pried it open with After I left it slightly open
Starting point is 00:45:10 I noticed it was left slightly open Ever I opened it up It was open So I decided to snoop But when I came back out He asked me if I checked out the medicine cabinet What? Of course Then I had to go look
Starting point is 00:45:23 But I so wish I didn't Because what do I find in the medicine cabinet A fucking condom One singular condom Keep in mind we literally hadn't held hands or kissed or anything of the sort. I was totally prepared to just pretend I didn't see it. But of course, as soon as I came out again, he asked me what I thought about it. I told him I didn't... Run! Run! Why are you still typing this? Run! I told him I didn't want to
Starting point is 00:45:42 ruin our friendship and I left soon afterwards. Good. The problem is that we're part of the same close friend group at a small school and there's no way to avoid seeing him for the next few years. What should I do? Should I tell him how disrespectful and inappropriate that was? Or should I just pretend this never happened? Lastly, should I stay upset or just chalk this up to a really funny story. Sincerely a slightly disturbed toaster. I have to say, of all the ways I've heard of like men trying to get women into bed, this is a new one. This is so... Hey, did you see that one condom in my medicine cabinet? What did you think of it? What did you think? That's horrific. If you didn't have the ick from him before, like you certainly have it now. That's the ickyest thing I've ever
Starting point is 00:46:18 heard. Now, what you should do is obviously avoid him at all costs and in order to like have your friends avoid him too, just tell him the story. Yeah, tell everyone the story. I don't know if like, I do feel like his heart was in the right place. He's just like a cringy man. No? I don't think so. Like that's really, really bad. Yeah?
Starting point is 00:46:34 There's some, like, either if you want to come, like, come on to someone, use your words. Yeah, I agree. We're all adults. Like, let's... That is, like, really fucking creepy. No, it's so weird. So he did leave it open. They were on...
Starting point is 00:46:49 He did leave it open. Yeah, no, sorry. We totally accused you. We totally accused you. Especially they were on the couch. Like, they had just made dinner. She was keeping it. open mind like could have been natural put the moves on yeah but to hide behind your condom in the
Starting point is 00:47:02 medicine cabinet is so weird that's lazy and it also just means like he just wants to fuck you like he doesn't want to be in a relationship with you so weird that is cringe master 3,000 like i'm in pain for you yeah and honestly like you really should never speak to this person again he's obviously unwell obvious no seriously like i'm not even joking run run run run like you run from it all. Oh, that's funny. I was thinking run by Lauren Elena. Run.
Starting point is 00:47:33 Daddy said the truck's all yours if you let it run. Do you know? This song, it's so good. I don't think so. It's so good. I'll listen to it. Listen to that and then don't forget to listen to Soul by Lee Bryce. And then the morning to us Patreon.
Starting point is 00:47:45 Also, so that's our advice, run, right? Run. Run. Run. Run for the hills. Run. Run, Paris, run. Run. Should we keep going?
Starting point is 00:47:53 Run, to keep going. Run. Run. Run, a slightly disturbed toaster, run. Our third and final, dear toaster submission. I'm in quite a peculiar pickle. My boyfriend's friend was recently dumped by his long-term girlfriend, and my P-John boyfriend has been trying to keep him busy.
Starting point is 00:48:08 My boyfriend's friend was dumped him. By his girlfriend, so the P-John boyfriend is trying to keep the friend busy. He makes sure to include him whenever possible, even if it's third-willing with my boyfriend and I. I love his friend, but we have an issue. He never pays, or even offers to pay for anything when we go out. How should we approach this subject to him? We understand he's going through it.
Starting point is 00:48:26 We are not made of money. We don't want to stop including him just because he won't pay, but enough is enough. I sincerely appreciate any words of advice from two beautiful stunning and smart girlsies. So many things you can do to get him to pay, but first I would say like,
Starting point is 00:48:37 okay, his girlfriend broke up with him. It doesn't mean you have to like adopt him and make sure he has a warm meal every night. I just want to say he's not terminally ill. No, he's heartbroken. He'll be fine. No, like it's really not a big deal. Like, Lonnie, you got him on a dating app
Starting point is 00:48:49 and like... Right, he's not an orphan. He can find someone else to pay for him. Yeah. But a few things you can. do one you guys go to dinner and you leave him with the check and say you got this one like we got all the other ones two you guys if he makes you pay you then then know him and if he doesn't ever get the message then you either then you either say something or you stop inviting him or you stop inviting him
Starting point is 00:49:08 and you tell him it's because he doesn't pay like you are not a charity and this behavior needs to stop yeah no are you a 501c3 I don't think so you're not tax exempt and you don't need to be paying for this grown ass man's meals all the time yeah messed up people have such nerve no the self-awareness like the lack of self-awareness when it comes to money with people in our generation is astounding. Like, whether it's Venmoing me 50 cents for, like, the vending machine pretzels we split or, like, not offering to pay, like, people,
Starting point is 00:49:37 especially when people write in, like, you really see how people are so weird about money. Yeah. And it's, like, so uncomfortable, and it really can, like, ruin a friendship. And that's where that age-old phrase comes from, comes from, like, you don't mix business with pleasure. Of course, but let me just think about it
Starting point is 00:49:50 from another angle for a second. Like, are you guys, is he glomming onto your plans? are like are you insisting he come with you because you're worried about him because if like you're always the ones doing in the inviting and then what if he's not someone who would be dining out all this time he's like why should I yeah times a week why should I pay when like you guys asked me to come and like I wouldn't be going out to dinner I don't spend my money like that that's interesting too we need to understand who invited who and at the end of the day like you guys need to break free like you're not a thruple this just sounds like a toxic he's fine he'll be fine
Starting point is 00:50:18 he's fine next time you see him just like download an app for him so that he can find someone or like if you want to spend time with him and make sure he's okay like stay in right right stay in cook order a pizza like low budget you know yeah doesn't have to be like a all the cameras coming out for a public affair when you take the sky out you know a hundred percent there's no there's no need for extravagance save that for day night honestly yeah no or start oh and say by the way say he's being a casa and like that's just what it is and he's insisting because he's so sad and heartbroken and start going to, like, really gross restaurants. Yeah, take him to the motel six.
Starting point is 00:50:56 Yeah. No, like, go to restaurants with, like, a D. Cockroach. Yeah, put a little glass. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Put a mouse in your purse. Yeah. I love that for you.
Starting point is 00:51:06 Yeah, or, like, whatever his least favorite cuisine is, like, keep going there. Yeah, it sounds like you guys are spoiling him. Yeah. And you're wondering why. He needs to be knocked down a few pegs because honestly sounds like you made him a monster. Yeah, which could happen. And, like, that's why they say no good deed goes on pie. So true.
Starting point is 00:51:22 No good deed goes unpunished. And that's like you do no good deeds, you'll never be punished. Gorgeous. That's today's lesson and that's today's show.
