Starting point is 00:00:00 Good morning, millennials! Welcome back to the chosen happy the Hearsday! That feels like a real Thursday, you know what I'm saying? You know, that's not been my experience. Oh my god, just once, like just agree, like for the sake of agreeing, like nobody cares. My, excuse me? Like it's not that deep, like yeah it feels like a Thursday, oh, cause it is, like it's not that deep. Okay, it feels like a Thursday oh cuz it is like it's not that deep. Okay it feels like a Thursday. Yes I'm so glad you agree. Yeah I
Starting point is 00:00:30 couldn't have said it better myself. You look gorgeous we're both wearing just kind of like comfy cozy energy today. We're giving gym. I'm wearing sometimes there's nothing cuter than a gray like zip-up hoodie. I stole this from Olivia and she's not getting it back. Sorry. Gray is tough for me. Now that I've discovered that I think I'm a winter. Okay.
Starting point is 00:00:53 So like, I don't know, is gray a winter or a spring? Definitely not a spring. It might be an autumn. You should just get your colors done. I know for the amount that I talk about it. Yeah, I think I have an email in my inbox. I need to read it and see if the person's in Florida because then we should do it while you're here.
Starting point is 00:01:11 Patreon, oh, speaking of Patreon, probably up today I started the editing process last night. I vlogged my whole evening last night, which was my book club with my private chef, catered affair, it was so good. The book club, like everyone's talking about it. Everyone said it was like one of our best meetings yet, the food was so good, the conversation was so good. The book club, like everyone's talking about it. Everyone said it was like one of our best meetings yet. The food was so good. The conversation was so good.
Starting point is 00:01:28 It's really a great book club book. Everyone liked the book, had a lot of very strong critiques of the book. Did you hear about Kitty Carr? It was the name of the book. Really just kind of like a textbook, perfect evening. And a great book club book you would say? Yeah. I have a, I'm like very frustrated. It was the author's first like debut novel,
Starting point is 00:01:46 which is so major. I almost wish she had waited to tell the story. Like she had a little bit more experience under her belt because she tried to do a little too much. And by the end of the book, it's like she ruined the magic she had created in the middle. And it was on its way to being like one of my favorite books ever.
Starting point is 00:02:02 Wow. And I like was so frustrated with it. Like I kind of hate it now. It's very confusing and everybody was feeling the same way. Got it. Interesting. What are you guys reading next? We'll find out today. Very cool. Well, Redheads, speaking of book clubs,
Starting point is 00:02:18 we are reading, actually this is kind of exciting, Big Redheads News. Oh my God. Hold your, gird your loins. We're reading The Frozen River by Ariel Lohan, who wrote Code Name Helene. Okay. Which makes this our first time that we're doing an author
Starting point is 00:02:32 twice on The Redheads and she's our, I didn't think it would be her, but it's her. Yeah, but like who else would it be? Like it could be, you know, one of the classics, Sally Hepworth. Yeah. Jessica Knoll. Yeah, yeah, Jessica Knoll.
Starting point is 00:02:44 Chriskin Hanna. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But it's Arielle Lohan, which I love that for her. I loved Codename Helene, so I'm really excited for Frozen River, it's a historical fiction book. It's like based on a true story, which I love. We haven't done historical fiction at the Redheads in a while, and in my personal life,
Starting point is 00:02:59 I've kind of been slipping on my historical fiction. We caught Jack slipping. He caught me slipping. So I kind of need to get back into the history books. And I think that's a good way to dip my toe into the frozen river. I am so excited to see you in just a mere two days. Hours, technically.
Starting point is 00:03:19 Hours at this point. I'm giddy with excitement. I can't wait to see my family. And it's just, it's the end of the week. I'm seeing my family. It's the Super Bowl. I have my health. No, it's, everything's kind of coming up excitement,
Starting point is 00:03:36 joyousness. Positivity. Fun, fun, fun. I'm gonna leave it at that. Fun, fun, fun. I'm gonna leave it at that. I couldn't agree more. So important, like when you're at, you know, the summit of something.
Starting point is 00:03:55 Is that the right use of the word? Is the summit at the top or the way up? Like it's like you're at the edge of the cliff. Like you're like there. You're there. Okay, so, okay. I guess maybe, no, maybe that wouldn't be. I feel like this-
Starting point is 00:04:06 All I'm trying to say is like, I feel like a huge part of like maintaining a healthy mindset in life is like to acknowledge like exciting things coming. And like, I, in this moment, I just want to be very present saying, I'm so excited for what's to come for me in the next couple of days.
Starting point is 00:04:23 The summit is the highest point. Okay, so I guess I'm like about to reach the summit and I'm sitting here like taking a moment of gratitude. Yeah, and I think the way to the summit, on the way to the summit is in some ways better than the summit. I would agree. Because you have what to look forward to,
Starting point is 00:04:39 that's really the message of the climb. Yeah. So, once again, the climb. It's always relevant. Once again, everything comes back to the climb. Well, that's the truth. I've been in such a Miley Renaissance since the Grammys. I've been listening to Endless Summer Vacation because I was like, I want more of this girl.
Starting point is 00:04:59 Of that energy. What I didn't realize is the song used to be Young, which is one of my favorite songs of last year. We talked about it on the Patreon of 2023 recap, is from that album. Yeah. I thought it was like a new single. She was doing new things. So I'm like, OK, so there are two songs
Starting point is 00:05:16 that are kind of like life changing for me from that album. I need to listen to the whole album. And? I only got into four songs before I was forced to play Happy Song. Oh, my book club was talking about Happy Song. Is it really life-saving for them as well? Some of the mothers in book club,
Starting point is 00:05:32 they were familiar with the Happy Song. And then some of the newer mothers hadn't heard of it yet. And this was like kind of the passing of the torch. Yeah, so I feel like there's someone out there who needs to hear this. If you have a fussy baby, there's a song by Imogen Heap who is a great talent. She sings good night and go other bops but she wrote a song for children called the
Starting point is 00:05:51 happy song that is like melodically and chemically written to cheer up your baby. Give it a try. It's like designed to ease the mind. Yeah, give it a try. Next time baby is like fussy and it's not because they're hungry or they're pooped or need a burp or this or that, like try the happy song. It works for us. Not all the time, but enough of the time. It worked magically.
Starting point is 00:06:13 Oh my God, Jackie, I forgot to, I mean, I did tell you this but I need to talk about it on the podcast. I'm going insanely viral. I heard. Okay. So I was looking through my TikTok drafts, like just to see like things I haven't posted.
Starting point is 00:06:26 And I forgot that I had made this TikTok while we were on our family vacation and I never posted it. It was just this funny moment where we all got up from the dinner table and we realized that our sister Margot had eaten her dinner off of the charger, not the actual plate. And it was like this funny, stupid thing.
Starting point is 00:06:40 I literally went to bed and I was like, oh my God, it's at 700,000 views. I woke up this morning, now 6.3 million. Claudia, the universal no deal TikTok kerfuffle is great for you. No music. Okay, for a second I was like, are you speaking English? The universal no deal kerfuffle?
Starting point is 00:07:01 Now it makes sense though. No, you're totally right. Now the comments are really split. People being like, you are just like rich. This is such a privilege, first world problem. Even though like a charger, like you can literally get like at the dollar store for 65 cents. Like have you never been to a wedding?
Starting point is 00:07:17 And then most people also being like, what is a charger? People like don't know what chargers are. I learned about chargers late in life too. I think a lot of people learn about chargers when they get married. Yeah, when did I learn about chargers? I don't even think it was when I got married because I didn't register for chargers, but I-
Starting point is 00:07:34 No, not registered. Oh, for- Like decor at your actual wedding. That's, I think, really when I learned what a charger was. Yeah, so it's like a plate that's just decorative. It's like a placemat made out of plate. But it's like really not made out of plate. It's not food safe.
Starting point is 00:07:51 No, but it's very akin to a plate. It's of the plate elk. Oh, it looks like a plate, but I'm talking about material wise. Sometimes they're like made of wood. They're not really safe to eat off of. No, no, but you could get confused. It looks like a plate and unless it's,
Starting point is 00:08:05 especially when it's like whatever the material was. It's the same shape. The shape, but even the material of the one that she ate off of was a little confusing except for the fact that like it was a charger. Yeah, so I'm just like kind of going majorly viral. Like all these, you know, like, like Buzzfeed type like accounts be like,
Starting point is 00:08:28 we'd love to share your video. Please submit content and consent and approval here. I'm like, no, bitch, you think you're taking away my views? Eat my ass. I'm not signing that shit away. You don't think it's gonna like help raise your rising tide, raise your side? Do you think I should do it?
Starting point is 00:08:40 No, no, no, I want all the clicks. You want all the clicks, but you don't, like you might need the distribution to get more clicks. We'll get there. Maybe I'll sign the distribution deal later on, but right now I'm just like kind of enjoying my moment. For sure, but don't overplay your hand. So true.
Starting point is 00:08:56 And you only have like minutes left before the world moves on. Should I sign it now? What was the publication? Is there anything legit? Yeah, like Lad Bible, you know, like all those big Facebook page type of. Claudia, that's really how you get your name out there. Should I do it?
Starting point is 00:09:12 I think Ladd Bible you could do. I don't know, maybe, yeah, like maybe then we could do, like, I don't know, the Toast UK tour or something. I think it should be publication dependent, not just like all publications can have the video, but like worthy ones. Yeah, yeah. I feel like Barstool Sports is like about to knock
Starting point is 00:09:29 on my door. Like they love to do like- Would you let them? But that's how you go viral because then- Jackie, what have they said about Israel? That's my litmus test. No, like if one Annie Lennox wanted to repost my video, you know what I would say? Turdys says no. That's what I would say. No, Barstool is marked safe. Dave is good. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:09:54 yeah, I would, I would give it to Barstool. I'll have to check what Ladd Bible's been saying about the war in Israel. When Barstool like then distributes it, then so many more people see it. And that's how you end up on GMA, today's show. Oh my God, what if I have to postpone my trip to see you because they want me on the today show. But what if, what if they want Margot? You're- That's interesting.
Starting point is 00:10:16 You're not in the video. I sound like Madison Beer, but like I'm supposed to be in the video. It's- No, I am in the video, you just can't see me. Margot's kind of the star. So by the way, so is Shapiro, he to be in the video. It's, I am in the video, you just can't see me. The star. So by the way, so is Shapiro, he's like,
Starting point is 00:10:28 in the reflection of the window, like cracking up at Margot. What if they want Margot and Shapiro on GMA? Oh, then I won't sign over any rights and everybody can stay less famous to me. When I think about examples that are akin to what you're experiencing, it's the person on camera who Hoda wants to talk to. Of course, of course.
Starting point is 00:10:46 Not the sister who posted it. Unless sometimes the person could bring their sister and maybe she would bring you. Maybe she would bring me. Maybe I just won't forward the email that I get from the Today Show producers asking to be connected with my sister. Also, you and Marco look alike.
Starting point is 00:11:00 You could impersonate her. So true. Okay, you're gonna steal the shine. Yeah, or maybe I'll just let this thing die. You know, no one else, if I can't get famous, no one else can. Not rising tides raise all shides for the sisters? No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:11:14 Not since you're distant from your family? Yeah, oh, and that's the other element. Like I am Erin Rogers, so no, yeah, cut it. That's a wrap. You don't even have her email. Exactly, I couldn't forward it to her if I wanted to. Sorry, Oda. We, by the way, have an amazing show today
Starting point is 00:11:32 because we have the stories, and tell me about them. How are they on vibe? I feel good about them. There's a couple that feel like, that just tickled my fancy, you know what I mean? And not because they're about Royal Caribbean or the Royal family. I think I just like things that say Royal.
Starting point is 00:11:48 No, don't say that. I'm gonna look into this. And then there's also the obvious, you know, what you've maybe seen in the headlines. I don't know what I've seen in the headlines, but what I do know is that with our new schedule, today we also have Dear Toasters. We have some very interesting sort of different ones,
Starting point is 00:12:05 you know? I love different. We have a writing about standup comedy. We have a story about standup comedy. Wait, also this next thing has nothing to do with standup comedy. I just remembered that I wanted to say it. So guess who I spoke to yesterday.
Starting point is 00:12:21 Tinks. Well, I did, yes, but that's not what I was gonna say. I spoke to my trainer, Hillary. She listens to the toast. And she's gonna get us into 5K shape. She has like a whole plan. She found us a running coach, like we're done, we're good. We're done.
Starting point is 00:12:38 We're done. That's- I'll be able to like train in person, but she's gonna make a plan like for all of us. Okay, make a plan, stay alert, bring a snack. Yeah, stop, drop and roll. Love that, okay, great, yeah. Also, I think what I've surmised
Starting point is 00:12:54 is that maybe the 5K doesn't have a location because they're like not serious about it. And I think like maybe we took it really seriously. Oh my God, not me getting a running coach and this whole thing's a joke? That's what I was like getting from the comments. Like I know by the way, I think they just like say. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:13:17 They just like say stuff and they're not kind of like doing it. There's no 5k. Oh my God, Jackie, we named our episode title about the 5k and there isn't even a 5k. I don't know that there isn't a 5k, but... No, Jackie! Jackie, I was talking about it at my book club. I was like, I think Joe Rogan's gonna come.
Starting point is 00:13:38 Jackie, there is no 5k. There's no 5k! There never was 5k that ever was a 5k. And that's why we were divided. And that's why, yeah, that's why he can't tell us the location. Jackie, there is no 5k. Not confirmed, but it's kind of the vibe I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie.
Starting point is 00:14:08 I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie.
Starting point is 00:14:16 I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie.
Starting point is 00:14:24 I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. And I was only doing it for the thirsty element that I get to meet other more famous, successful people who could prop me up and give me attention and followers and stuff. Let's be real, I don't run a 5K for fun. I had a goal in mind. Charity? No, sorry, I'll just donate. I'll write a check.
Starting point is 00:14:39 Awareness? I'll post on Instagram. So we'll stay tuned. I mean, you never know. They could decide to take us seriously, but I'm just feeling like it's mostly serious. And by the way, wait, wait, no, now that I'm thinking about it,
Starting point is 00:14:53 like, Bert never answered my DM, like, after he, like, I was like, oh, like, we never connected. Like, it was just a story. Because there was nothing to connect over. Because there's no 5k. Cool cool cool. Yeah there is no 5k. Okay cool cool.
Starting point is 00:15:14 That's so awesome. Me thanks. And like this was just like this little joke on their podcast that like and they didn't even mean to but like an unintended consequence of this, like funny joke from their podcast was like these two enormous losers showing how desperate and thirsty they are. I just want to say this all started because jelly roll said he was running a 5k. Oh, I forgot jelly roll was going to be there. Yeah. And so people magazine was fooled too, because that's where I saw it,
Starting point is 00:15:44 but they are fools. So I don't know why I'm looping myself in with them. I like how like, yeah, we're not fools. We didn't fall for it. You just can't believe everything you read on the internet, I guess. It's just so crazy when you like find out a piece of information that like just rejiggers
Starting point is 00:16:01 the way you look at the world, you know? And it all makes sense. I have like, and why I really relate to this one particular Taylor Swift lyric, like in this moment, I've never been a natural, all I do is try, try, try. Like I am genuinely like at my core, like a desperate person. Like I don't, I don't really have any need to be like, I have a very full life. I'm very successful. Thank God.
Starting point is 00:16:22 Knock wood. Like, and this desperation, like this deeply uncool thing about me I can't sort of shake and now I've just been exposed about like for for who I truly am Maybe exposing it and showing it to the light Is a way to kill it, you know sunlight kills Right, I'm kind of like Edward you're Edward Wow, okay, so that sort of shift the foundation on which I walk.
Starting point is 00:16:50 Yeah, but you should still train for the 5K with your running coach. I don't know about that. Let's get into the stories, because as Charity stated, we have a lot to do today, and best not waste time, best to make haste. Without further ado, here are the fast five stories that you need to know. Today's

Pete Davidson ditches a Radio City warm up gig for Matt Reif at the last minute. So what Matt Reife is performing a three night stand at Radio City Music Hall. Okay, on my way here, I passed like a billboard
Starting point is 00:18:51 to those billboards that get like put on construction sites. Yeah. And it was like, congrats, Matt Rife, six sold out shows. So two shows a night for three nights. I was, that's huge. Yeah, and Pete Davidson had agreed to open for him, warm up the crowd, but- Wait, what?
Starting point is 00:19:06 They're friends. Okay. According to Radio City Insiders, he backed out just two hours before showtime. Backstage sources at the Rockefeller Center Institution say that Matt Rife's team had to scramble to find a backup and eventually got someone lined up within a matter of minutes before the curtain went up.
Starting point is 00:19:23 According to a social media post from the show, John Campanelli ended up filling in for Davidson. Yeah, I mean, I don't think finding someone new would have been a problem. Any comic would be honored to do it. But if they sold the tickets, being with special guest Pete Davidson, it's kind of a letdown.
Starting point is 00:19:44 Oh, I don't know if they sold the tickets. I don't know, I don't know know, it's kind of a letdown. Oh, did that? I don't know if they sold. I don't know. I don't know. But I'm sure he was like really excited. It's his big night and the crowd would be so high for Pete. His friend is coming through for him. And then for two hours before for Pete to cancel, that's a little.
Starting point is 00:19:58 I also think it's like crazy that that Matt Rife got Pete Davidson to do something for him. Like, I don't know why I think that's crazy. I feel like Pete Davidson, I would have said, like has good friends and is a good friend because he's always, like they're always showing up for him. I feel like he has good friendships, but this isn't what a friend does.
Starting point is 00:20:13 And of course, like, because Matt Rife is kind of rife with scandal right now. It, your first thought is like, is he disassociating from Matt? But I don't think that's what it is. I'm sure it's just something came up. Comics don't do that. Comics aren't losers who are like,
Starting point is 00:20:27 oh, there's a little bit of like backlash on TikTok. I should stay away. Like comics don't give a fuck. I don't think it has to do with that either. I also think, yes, Pete has like a lot of friends, but I also think that's like the nature of like comedy. Like everybody just like supports one another. And you need your friends in that business.
Starting point is 00:20:40 Or shall I say in this business. Oh right, in our business. In our business as comedians. Who run 5Ks. Who are top of the charts comedians. We need friends. Luckily, Turtee and I have each other. That's why we don't know anyone else.
Starting point is 00:20:55 No, we have Bert and Tom until further notice. And you have Tynx. I will always have Tynx. We actually have a lot of friends, not in the comedy space, but in the influencer space. Like we're friendly influencers. A lot of, because you wanna know what it is, like most comedy podcasters come from the comedy world.
Starting point is 00:21:13 We are comedy podcasters who weirdly came from the influencer world. Yeah. So we're just different in that way. And that's why we're not like other shows. And we're probably better than everyone else if I had to guess. Yeah, sounds right.
Starting point is 00:21:23 Speaking of comedy news, something that wasn't a story, but I find to be newsworthy, is Shane Gillis hosting SNL. And I've been meaning to talk about it. I'm so glad you brought that up because I saw it and I sent it to you and I was shook because for anyone who doesn't understand why it's a big deal, the first time I had ever heard of Shane Gillis was many years ago
Starting point is 00:21:44 when he was announced as one of the new SNL cast members. And obviously for any comic, that's like the job of the century and it's like the biggest deal. Then they had announced that he was the, one of the new cast members. Of course, you know, the internet did their thing,
Starting point is 00:21:58 found some old clips of him saying some unsavory things on a podcast, specifically using a slur. And he was immediately, you know, the offer was withdrawn. And I think for like any comic who, you know, gets to SNL, I don't know if there's anything worse. Like, I don't, I think what happened to Shane Gillis is like so many people's worst nightmare. Yeah, it was, it was reaching to reach the summit, to reach the summit and then fall down and have it taken away.
Starting point is 00:22:21 And what was so interesting about what happened to Shane Gillis is that he kind of took, you know, this lemon and made it into Lemonade and his career really blew up after that. He just like pounded the pavement, podcast, podcast, podcast. He produced his own comedy special, put it out for free on YouTube. It blew up so much so that the next time he recorded
Starting point is 00:22:39 a special, Netflix bought it and it was like the number one special a few months ago. It was really popular. Yeah. And he kind of made himself someone who's like a little too famous to even be a cast member on SNL. He's kind of someone who's, you know, the guest host on SNL and they did it, which I think is so crazy. Like, I don't know if I was Shane Gillis, would I be like, butthurt and like bitter and not accept? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:23:01 Not for hosts to come back in that way. Like if they had asked him to be a cast member now, I'm sure he would be like, oh, you can go fuck yourself. No, and he wakes makes what he has a huge podcast. He's like below us sometimes, but I think. But sometimes above us. Yeah, yeah. He's makes a lot of money. But I think he was doing that podcast
Starting point is 00:23:18 before he even got the first SNL job. Everything that he's doing now is what he was doing before the first SNL job. And that's why he got the job. And then he was taken away from him. And then he's continued to just like, do Shane, do his podcast, do his comedy. And as we say, the cream rises
Starting point is 00:23:34 and now he will be hosting SNL, which is completely full circle, a really crazy thing. And I absolutely have to watch his monologue just to see how this is like, to me, this is historic. Like I need to see how this is like to me. This is historic. Like, yeah, I, I need to see how they're going to address it. Like, and they're, they're going to, I mean, how could they not? It's really the elephant in the room, but also so interesting. I think that when he was,
Starting point is 00:23:56 if you watch his special and I've seen a lot of clips, I think I watched the special, but I also see clips. He does like an insane funny and good Trump impression. And I think that's why he was booked to begin with for that impression. Because if you think of who they've had play him in the last few years after Alec Baldwin, or even maybe Alec Baldwin included, it's like not great.
Starting point is 00:24:18 And the guy who they currently have for Trump isn't a cast member, he just is the Trump guy. He comes in to do Trump. But he's like not even a good one. Agreed. I'm sure they'll utilize that. I think they'll have him do that impression. But I think that's why he initially got the job.
Starting point is 00:24:31 It would make sense. Cause when you audition for SNL, you like audition with impressions. Yeah, no. And when I read Kenan's book, not to always be bringing up Kenan, it is very impressions based. It's like very, it's like old school,
Starting point is 00:24:42 like sketch comedy. It's not- You have to like do characters. It's not really, a lot of people who I think try out for SNL and maybe even get on SNL like aren't like stand up comics. They do this sort of like improv. They're from like those improv groups.
Starting point is 00:24:55 So Shane Gillis is very much like a multi-talented comic because he does the impressions, but he also writes like really good stand up. I'm fascinated by this. And of course people are like up in arms on the internet being like, you know, he's not sorry. But I think this is such an interesting life cycle of a cancellation.
Starting point is 00:25:13 And we haven't seen it before. To me, that's a precedent and I'm beyond interested. I also just think it's kind of crazy, to have let him go, SNL was making a statement. Like they were, which was very uncomm, the comedy world, like they don't do that, you know? So it was very sort of out of character and bizarre. But of course, like when the mob comes,
Starting point is 00:25:33 like you just buckle, like that's what people do. So the fact that they did cancel it was such like a strong move. And booking him is like a strong move in the total opposite direction. I find it very confusing. Yeah, we'll see how it plays out and what sort of message they're gonna send
Starting point is 00:25:52 and what they're gonna say about it. I'm like, I will be tuning in maybe perhaps even long. Yeah, I just want to see the musical guest is 21 Savage. Great. Great, February 24th, see you there. Oh, it's not this weekend? No. Oh, who on God's green dilly dally earth knows where I'm gonna be on February 24th, see you there. Oh, it's not this weekend? No. Oh, who on God's green dilly dally earth knows where I'm gonna be on February 24th?
Starting point is 00:26:09 What is this weekend, let's see. I don't think there is a SNL weekend. Oh, because it's also the Super Bowl. Yeah, there is none. And they just kind of make up their own schedule. I kind of love and respect that, you know? Yeah, like maybe we'll do a show, maybe we won't. Maybe it'll be a rerun.
Starting point is 00:26:24 Yeah. Maybe not. They're just like always keeping us on you know? Yeah. Like maybe we'll do a show, maybe we won't. Maybe it'll be a rerun. Yeah. Maybe not. They're just like always keeping us on our toes. Yeah. Yeah. Because we're just waiting with bated breath. Are you ready for our next story? Yes.
Starting point is 00:26:35 Some really lovely news. 40 megastars have come together for one magnificent image on British Vogue as they say a farewell to Edward Enifle, the editor in chief of British Vogue. So. Who I didn't even know was leaving. He's leaving. The cover of his final magazine is 40 huge stars, one class picture.
Starting point is 00:26:57 They all. And they're like his girlies, like they're not random. They all had like been on the cover at one point in his career. They all signify like the past, the present, and the future for him. They all came to New York on the cover at one point in his career. They all signify the past, the present, and the future for him. They all came to New York on the same day for a photo shoot. And these are some of the biggest stars ever.
Starting point is 00:27:13 It's a really- And you know what it's giving. It's giving Jen a rank. Yes, 30 going on 30, the graduation prom scene, when they all are in the park and there's leaves and it's the best scene on television history. It is, but those were like regular daguilers. No, and by the way, I'm sure like the vibe on this set
Starting point is 00:27:29 was like so toxic and like rude. They were like eating cupcakes in Jenna Rink's version and there was like, you know, snow in the air. Well, this one was probably just like a different kind of snow. The story they're telling is like, it was just such a beautiful, harmonious day of so many. I think it was like a mega factory
Starting point is 00:27:44 of getting all the girls ready and styled and everyone comes with teams. I think there were probably so many people there. They shot it at like a warehouse in the city. But the final image is beautiful. I mean. Read me some of the names. Okay.
Starting point is 00:27:58 I mean, I saw it, but. Naomi Campbell, Kaia Gerber and Cindy Crawford. Oh, I didn't put that together because they weren't seated next to each other. There are a couple of interesting dynamics where it's like, oh, I wonder how these two got along. Cara Delevingne, Miley Cyrus, Victoria Beckham, Oprah, Serena Williams, Anya Taylor-Joy, Carly Kloss.
Starting point is 00:28:21 There were some major randoms in there, Jamila Jamil. Jamila Jamil, Ariana DeBose. Yeah, like really random. Yeah, there were a couple randoms. I'm sure they mean something to Edward. Victoria Beckham. Yeah, I said her, love her. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:28:37 Amber Valletta. Oh, I actually just met Amber Valletta. Nice lady and very gorgeous in person. What I wanted to say before I had to be annoying and name drop and now forgot what I was gonna say. Shall I continue? You know, British Vogue is so, all the Vogue's, but British Vogue is really, I feel, highlights
Starting point is 00:29:00 how much better American Vogue could be doing. I feel like American Vogue never does anything iconic. They're always getting in trouble these days. For something or other. It's like Joe Coy and then Trevor Noah. It's like it shouldn't be so hard. Here you have someone who shows you how you can do your job. No, and it's literally Vogue, like do better.
Starting point is 00:29:17 They act like, oh, it's hard to get a great cover and to be on the polls. But British Vogue is always showing it up. I remembered what I was gonna say. Have you been seeing the like pre-commercial Super Bowl commercials for Uber Eats with the Beckhams? Obsessed. I thought it was 10 out of 10 perfectly executed.
Starting point is 00:29:38 I loved that they let her wear her Victoria Beckham shirt that she sells. People are mad it's like $100 because it's literally like a piece of merch. Obsessed, what did they call her? Not Jennifer Amis. Jessica. Jessica.
Starting point is 00:29:52 It's a funny commercial. It is. And I'm sure we get more commercial at the Super Bowl. For sure. Yeah, all the Super Bowl commercials are rolling out slowly. I also know that Edward was like a close friend of Taylor Swift. So I'm sure she's busy and she just couldn't make it,
Starting point is 00:30:12 but it would've been cool if she was in there. It would have been. It was in December, so she was. She was free. She was free. And it was in New York. Do you think anyone got this email and like didn't? Taylor Swift.
Starting point is 00:30:26 You think? I could see like someone getting this and not realizing how iconic it was gonna be and just kind of being like, oh, they wanted me to do some like celebratory thing for British Vogue. Right. I can't make it.
Starting point is 00:30:38 No, but like Oprah's there, you know? Yeah. But then when you see the picture, it's like if anybody didn't participate, who was invited, like you're- You know what? You know who I actually think probably did that?
Starting point is 00:30:49 Madison Beer, she was supposed to be in the video, but- Yeah. I love that reference, I'm sorry. Cause like that would happen to me. No, what would happen to me is like to get an email and like not really register the significance of it and be like, oh, I don't really wanna do that. And then you see the picture
Starting point is 00:31:06 and you're like, I should have done that. Right, things I should have done. Things I didn't do, that. So yeah, Hugh James, Salma Hayek, Linda Evangelista. They had a sleepover the night before the article said, Salma stayed at Linda's place. Oh, not all of the women. No, just these two. But like, is it- Wait, why are you saying Salma stayed at Linda's place. Oh, not all of the women. No, just these two.
Starting point is 00:31:25 But like, is it- Wait, why are you saying Salma? Selma? Sorry. Wait, who are we talking about? Selma Hayek. Oh, sorry, I thought you were talking about, it's because Selma Blair is on there too.
Starting point is 00:31:33 Selma Blair is on there too, Selma. Sorry, I like wasn't listening to you. Selma Hayek and who? Linda Evangelist had a sleepover? That's weird. And isn't Selma Hayek married to that guy? The, like, richest man in the world? Yeah, she stayed at Linda's place in New York.
Starting point is 00:31:48 You can't get out of town. She stayed at Linda's dump? That's a little weird. For sure. That's like Elon too. He's the richest man in the world. Whenever he travels, he stays at a friend's place. And the way that just would never, ever me, like not in a million years.
Starting point is 00:32:06 Like if I'm- He's literally a couch surfer. It's so crazy. And the way I travel, I act like I have Elon Musk's finance. Like imagine if I actually did. Yeah. Just would never be me.
Starting point is 00:32:17 You know guys know how I feel about that. Like rich people, cosplaying as poor people. I, you know, marry you with paper rings type of things. Like, no, don't. Don't. Kate Moss on the cover with Lottie Moss, another duo. Yeah, cute. It was really beautifully done.
Starting point is 00:32:33 And it was 1000% giving Jenna a ring. Yeah. Yeah. And everyone looks great individually and together. It probably took a lot of styling. So great execution. Bon voyage, Edward. I didn't even know he was leaving.
Starting point is 00:32:50 Yeah. Are you ready for our next story? Yeah. Podcaster, Bobby Althoff calls her strange husband, Corey, incredible after he files for divorce from her. No, I need, and I know people tune into this podcast to hear us explain stuff. I need someone to explain to me what the hell is going on.
Starting point is 00:33:08 Okay, so Bobby, I'll talk for those of you who don't know, she is the one who had that viral podcast interview with Drake, her show is called... She was the girl who like, she was like a mom on TikTok with like a decently big platform. She started a podcast and literally it took over the world. People thought she was an industry plant. She had guests like Mark Cuban, Drake.
Starting point is 00:33:29 It was so weird. It was so random. It was like a- It was overnight. Overnight and then it was gone. And then there were at the time rumors about her husband and rumors about her sleeping with Drake. It was just so crazy.
Starting point is 00:33:42 And I was like, okay, whatever. But then now they actually are getting divorced. So now I'm like, wait, what the fuck? Yeah, her podcast is called the really good podcast. And months ago there were rumors that she like hooked up with Drake after their viral interview or whatever. She totally denied it. And she went on BFF's pod.
Starting point is 00:33:56 Yeah, that drama with Dave. But now her and her husband are getting divorced. She posted, as most of you have heard, Corey and I have filed for divorce. As sad as I am right now, I'm so thankful for the time I got to be his wife. Our girls are so lucky to have him as a father, and I'm so lucky to be able to co-parent
Starting point is 00:34:10 with such an incredible father in person. Now, I don't know anything, and I'm not saying that she cheated on her man, but if she did, this would be the type of caption you would write when you're really sorry. It's like a really nice caption. Yeah, like, I fucked up, he's good. Amazing, perfect man, perfect husband,
Starting point is 00:34:28 anyone's lucky to have him, like, all right, calm down. Don't be mad at me, please. Right, like, S-R-Y. Because when you write, when you feel this way about someone, like, you would write these nice things about them, like, you should be married to them. Right, and why aren't you? You're a great man, you're a great parent,
Starting point is 00:34:44 like, okay, so stay married. Totally random, totally random sidebar. So you know Toby Keith, the country singer, he passed away from stomach cancer, so sad. I, and I'm sure he was just really upset about it, but Luke Holmes posted on his story, rip Toby. Just that? Like legend or something, but it was really short.
Starting point is 00:35:08 And what was a picture of? Nothing, just black. Black rip Toby? Yeah, it was all caps, R, capital I, capital P, not, so it was more like rip Toby, not rip Toby, which is better. It's still a rip. I know, and I think, you know,
Starting point is 00:35:25 Luke was probably just like acting out of grief and I can't be mad, but like, I just, I wanted to note that our king, our king ripped. You wanted to rip him a new one? No, I didn't. Also, should we talk about the backlash? We didn't do Toby Keith as a story. We got a lot of backlash for not choosing Toby Keith
Starting point is 00:35:43 as a story, because we're big country music fans. And Jackie and I have said this repeatedly, and we actually spoke as a story. We got a lot of backlash for not choosing Toby Keith as a story because we're big country music fans. And Jackie and I have said this repeatedly and we actually spoke about it offline. Unless it's like Queen Elizabeth dying, I really don't like talking about death as a story. It's not interesting conversation because what else are we gonna say? Oh, we're happy someone died?
Starting point is 00:35:59 No, it's sad. Claudia, we're gonna say rip. Yeah, no. Especially when it's not a shock're gonna say RIP. Yeah, no. Especially when it's not like a shock, like there's some that are stories cause it's like, oh my gosh, but you know, when it's just like rest in peace, great talent, legend,
Starting point is 00:36:15 and it's not someone that we've really spoken about. There's not that much to say, that's why it wasn't a story, but we have the utmost respect for Toby Keith and we hope that he, Alan Jackson as well. We hope that he rests in peace, legend, I cuffed him like king.
Starting point is 00:36:29 Red Solo Cup, I pick you up, let's have a party. Thanks for clearing that up. It's not a big conspiracy, you guys. We just didn't choose a story. Yeah, because it's just, I'm not gonna say what I was gonna say.
Starting point is 00:36:46 It would've been a pun. Oh. That wasn't, it wasn't intentionally be a pun, but it would sound like a pun. Oh, oh. You know what I mean? So good you caught it. So good I caught it.
Starting point is 00:36:56 Are you ready for our next story? No, I kind of love the name Toby. For? People. Girl or For? People. Girl or boy? Boy. Okay, Toby Soffer? On, wait, kind of love.
Starting point is 00:37:13 So cute. It is, right? I feel like Toby is always a kid. Like a grown Toby. No, and I also do feel like for a man, like I don't know if I've ever met a Toby who was in really good shape. Like Toby is a fat boy's name, like 1,000%.
Starting point is 00:37:28 Because it's one letter away from tubby. Also? Because it sounds and looks like tuba, which is like this huge instrument. That's what I think though. Oh, I think of tubby. Yeah, tubby, no for sure. Maybe it's like a curse of a name,
Starting point is 00:37:43 especially with my jeans and Ben's jeans, nevermind. Maybe it's like a curse of a name, especially with like my jeans and Ben's jeans. Nevermind. But maybe he was meant to be a Toby. I don't know, I just kinda like the name. I also like the name Keith, by the way. People with last names that are first names. Firsty lasty. That's not a firsty lasty.
Starting point is 00:38:02 Okay, there is a lot of controversy and conversation about what a firsty lasty is. Some people think a firsty lasty. Okay, there is a lot of controversy and conversation about what a firsty lasty is. Some people think a firsty lasty is someone who has a first name for a first and last name. Like Toby Keith is a first name, a firsty lasty because- No, we don't think that. But then other people say that being a firsty lasty means like you're the type of person
Starting point is 00:38:21 who you can't just say Jackie. Like it's Jackie Asher, you have to say the first and the last thing. Yeah, I'm not a firsty lasty. No no but I was using you as like an example who's an example of a firsty lasty like honestly like Drew Barrymore like no one would say Drew. Except her show is like oh no it's the Drew Barrymore show. Right because she's the firsty lasty. Yeah that's a firsty lasty.
Starting point is 00:38:40 Shout out in the comments what do you think a firsty lasty is or have you never heard that phrase before? Is that an Oshra family thing? No I feel like it's from the comments. What do you think a firsty lasty is? Or have you never heard that phrase before? Is that an Australia family thing? No, I feel like it's from the click books. It's giving click books. It's giving idiotic click books. So I feel like we can determine what the definition is. It's in writing.
Starting point is 00:38:56 It's in the text. It's in the scripture. We can go to the source. Should we reread the click books? No, I think it would just like make us like, feel really like old and be like what we're rereading. Yeah, like no wonder like I was such a nasty little child. Like I was reading the click books like,
Starting point is 00:39:18 and who did I idolize in the click books? Like the meanest cunt of all. Of course, she was the best. She was like the prettiest, the richest. Like of course we were gonna stan Massey. The funniest, most stylish, like trendsetter, trailblazer. Everyone wanted to be at Massey's house. What is Massey doing this weekend?
Starting point is 00:39:32 Oh, can we get invited to Massey's BBQ? You know? She had her in and out list. She was doing it before 2024. Right, like no wonder like girls our age, like we grew up like watching Mean Girls and reading the clicks. Like no wonder we're nasty,
Starting point is 00:39:45 nasty women. Gossip Girl. The books too, that's what we read. Thousand percent. Yeah. Now are you ready for our next story? What number is it? It's number four.
Starting point is 00:40:00 Yeah. So New York City was blessed with a rare sister sighting on Tuesday and it wasn't us. Me and you? No. Okay. It was the Olsen sisters, Ashley, Mary, Kate and Elizabeth stepped out for a sister's night out
Starting point is 00:40:13 as photographers captured the trio strolling the streets while braving the chilly weather. Oh, I need to see these photos. I can't believe, I always forget that third one's related to that. I know and I just feel like they must be distant because we don't see them together, but they're not, and they are together,
Starting point is 00:40:27 and they literally named their clothing line after her, Elizabeth and James. Oh my God, by the way, seeing them all together is so crazy because Elizabeth also does that like smile. No, they're twins, literally. Can you tell Mary-Kate and Ashley apart? Yes. Can you? No.
Starting point is 00:40:45 Also, did you know that Ashley welcomed a baby secretly last year? No. A baby boy named Otto. Well, I've seen them all three just like being regular girls walking around. And now this article has photos of them like together throughout the years. There aren't a lot. It's the craziest thing. Also have that Elizabeth, the youngest one like towers over them. She's a giant. She's not a giant. She how the Elizabeth, the youngest one, like towers over them.
Starting point is 00:41:05 She's a giant. She's not a giant. She's probably like Margo's height and they're our height. I just like love them. Love. Like, and they're so sisterly. What they've done is so impressive. I feel like not enough people talk about the row enough
Starting point is 00:41:18 as it pertains to Mary-Kate and Ashley. People know the row is like this, like, you know, amazing fashion house, but like, I think a lot of people don't even put together that it's Mary-Kate and Ashley. We just need more from them, and I know they don't wanna give us anything, but just something, please, a documentary, a memoir.
Starting point is 00:41:31 We need you, the culture needs you. I guess they're giving us clothes, and they constantly inspire the generation, and are leading by example with their fashion statements, but we still need more. I don't know if I want a memoir. Really? I'm trying to think format-wise. I mean't know if I want a memoir. Really? I don't know, like I'm trying to think format wise.
Starting point is 00:41:46 I mean, if they did do a memoir, first of all, we need a title, second of all, would it be one book? Together? Right. I feel like they're 37 years old, like they want their own book. Yeah. It's like so crazy they're only 37.
Starting point is 00:42:01 Wait. Is it? Wait, they're 37? Yeah. How on God's green diddly dally earth does that make sense? Like. Which part? They're too old or too young?
Starting point is 00:42:14 Too old? Not that they're too old. No, but like they were always like a couple years older than us. No, no, I feel like when we were like watching Full House and stuff, they were like younger than us. No, when we were watching like their teen movies, they were like the older we were the same a few years older No, you're right. You're right. Like New York Minute. We were like in the eighth grade and they were like in high school. Yeah
Starting point is 00:42:33 Yeah, yeah. Okay. Okay, that's fair. Yeah, and then and I love that sister. How old is Elizabeth? Oh, she's 34 and What about James? brother Like what about James? Brother. Like what about him? What does he do? I think he does brother tings. I think he does brother for sale. I think they sold him 25 cents.
Starting point is 00:42:56 Brother for sale. He's not a big expense. Juggie. Juggie. Well, there's a lot of siblings. There's Mary-Kate and Ashley and Elizabeth. There is Jake, Courtney, Trent. Courtney?
Starting point is 00:43:18 Jackie, Jackie, wait. I don't see James. Oh, Jake. I guess that would be his birth name. Courtney. Who is Courtney? Courtney Taylor Olsen is an American actress. She is popularly known as the half sister
Starting point is 00:43:41 of the Olsen sisters, Elizabeth and Mary Kate. Courtney. Elizabeth is an actress,, Elizabeth and Mary Kate. Courtney. Elizabeth is an actress, yeah, yeah, yeah, Courtney. Half, okay. So there's also Trent. Must be another half if he didn't get named on the label, sorry. Older brother, no.
Starting point is 00:43:59 He has played himself in a few of his sister's video series. He's brother for sale, I guess. Brother for sale, only 50 cents. What a tangled web that these siblings read. And I want to know about the parents. These parents who had like six children, two of them being such successful child stars. Okay, so the dad, David, and the stepmom.
Starting point is 00:44:23 So there are five children, some step, I believe. Cool. Yeah, this is very, very interesting to me. Like I said, documentary memoirs of an Olsen. And when the Olsens got their Hollywood Walk of Fame star, they brought all their siblings. I'm like on this giddy image search right now. Very interesting.
Starting point is 00:44:50 So they had an SNO last night. I love that. I wonder where they went. We need a little- I was gonna say, where did they go? SNO inspo. Right, cause where they would go, like we would go. That's probably a good place that's good for sisters
Starting point is 00:45:02 and would foster like sisterly dialogue, sisterly love, sisterly closeness. Love. So we'll have to make a reservation. Our fifth and final story, a little Disney news because Moana 2 is set at Disney with a surprise 2024 release date. The line where the sky meets the sea is calling Moana 2 is set at Disney with a surprise 2024 release date. The line where the sky meets the sea is calling Moana once again.
Starting point is 00:45:29 Disney announced the sequel to Moana will be released theatrically on November 27th. That's very exciting. The second Moana was originally developed as a TV series but became a feature film because Bob Iger was impressed with the footage. So Moana 2 comes to theaters this November. Also, Moana is getting like the live action treatment. So there's just like a lot going on in the world of Moana. And let me tell you another part of this story
Starting point is 00:45:53 that I find so interesting. I feel like I told you this story. Do you remember, I think it was during COVID, when those two girls on TikTok, one of them is like a pop star singer songwriter, the other is like this musical composer. They started making all these videos. Like what if Bridgerton was a musical?
Starting point is 00:46:08 And they ended up writing a whole album that got like millions of streams. They got nominated for a Grammy and won. It was like this amazing thing that happened on TikTok. They have been tapped to write the music for Moana too. Oh, that's so great. Which doesn't mean Lin-Manuel Miranda is out of a job, which people are both celebrating, but also being like,
Starting point is 00:46:25 but he did slap the first time. Yeah, I feel two ways, because obviously, I don't ever want someone to not have a job, but Lin-Manuel has many, so let's open up the field to other people. But as much as we clown on Lin, he's responsible for so many hits, hit after hit, and how far I'll go, and Yad-Welcome.
Starting point is 00:46:43 I mean, if not for Lin-Manuel, we wouldn't have Yad, welcome. What can I say except Yad, welcome. We love to joke, but like at the end of the day, like we always say the cream rises and that shit, that soundtrack from Moana one, like was that bitch? Like it was top tier. Lin is the cream?
Starting point is 00:47:01 Question mark. Jen is the cream? Exclamation point. Lin is cream cream? Question mark? Lin is the cream? Exclamation point. Lin is cream, period. That's kind of like something for me to wrap my head around. Like, I don't appreciate Lin-Manuel in his time. No, and it's because like his personality gets in the way of his talent.
Starting point is 00:47:20 Yeah, but I feel okay knowing- But again, is that even true? Do we even know him? That Lin is appreciated in his time. Like everyone is obsessed with him. He gets every job that's remotely Lynn-like. Lynn is a multi-multi-millionaire. Like, Lynn is, hashtag Lynn is fine.
Starting point is 00:47:33 Yeah, but this is a lot of pressure for those girls because one, a sequel is a lot of pressure. Even if Lynn were doing it, he has to out Lynn the Lynn. Disney has a very high bar. But like if these songs, like what, oh no, I just got confused for a second, but still, How Far I'll Go, major. Yeah, but I have followed these two girls' stories
Starting point is 00:47:53 just because I thought it was so cool that they won a Grammy. And I feel like they literally could win an Oscar now or like a Golden Globe, like they could be EGOTs and they're just, you know, two girls. Two girls, Abigail Barlow and Emily Bear. Yeah, and they're like a writing duo, Barlow and Bear. It's giving like Pasek and Paul, you know?
Starting point is 00:48:13 Pasek and Paul. Like it's giving iconic writing duo. Yeah, I'd rather see Pasek and Paul out there shaking that thing. I wouldn't mind it. I love me some Pasek and Paul. Me too. Except what's crazy is Pasek and Paul out there shaking that thing. I wouldn't mind it. I love me some Pasek and Paul. Me too. Except what's crazy is Pasek and Paul did La La Land.
Starting point is 00:48:29 Mm-hmm. And I don't give a rip about La La Land. I didn't like La La Land. Maybe I should probably like watch it again. But I would probably still not give a rip. I just don't give a rip. No, I know. And when people think Pasek and Paul, they think La La Land.
Starting point is 00:48:47 We think Pasek and Paul, Greatest Showman or Evan Hansen. Yeah. La La Land. That's like, I feel like that's like a glitch in my matrix. It's like something I should like that I don't like. There's a couple of things like that. Such a good point. It's such a good point.
Starting point is 00:49:04 Yeah. I guess I just can't be pinned down. You can't put me in a box. Well, that's for damn sure. You can't like make a movie for me and expect me to like it. You just never know. But I am gonna pin you down right now

There's a little submission box once you scroll down on the website. Also anonymous. Ready? Yep. Good morning to the wonderful, stunning, turdy, and the beautiful wise Jackie O. I am writing in because I am having a predicament. My hilarious husband has recently started doing standup comedy and is starting to climb the comedy ladder where we live. When he first started doing comedy, I told him that I didn't want him to joke about me during his sets because I didn't want to feel disrespected. Now he's getting invited to host
Starting point is 00:50:12 shows and when I go to his shows that feature other comics, I've noticed that every single comic but my husband tirelessly jokes about their wives, significant others during their sets. Am I being an insecure loser? Should I just let him joke about me to help his comedy career? Turdi, have you had this combo with Ben? Help. That's such a great question and an interesting predicament. And I feel like you're being very self-aware,
Starting point is 00:50:32 but I think the boundary that you said is really nice. And if I were you, I wouldn't reconsider it unless he comes to you and says, listen, I have this joke and having this boundary is holding me back a little bit, or having you approve a joke. I would just like wait till he mentioned it. But if he's having success,
Starting point is 00:50:50 not joking about his relationship, I think that's like really respectable and totally fine. That's so funny. I was gonna say something different, even though like I do agree with you. The thing is, is like, I do feel like it's most likely limiting his potential because so much of comedy is like about your own life.
Starting point is 00:51:09 And if obviously you're married, like a huge part of your life is your marriage. And there's so much comedy. But maybe it's forcing him to be a better comedian because if everybody's making relationship jokes and like he has to think outside of that box, like he might eventually be like one of a kind in making different kinds of jokes.
Starting point is 00:51:26 It's possible. I guess I wouldn't say anything unless he says something. Yeah. And it's very sweet that he hasn't. I never ran it by Ben, but I also know there's a line. Like I'm not looking to be out here embarrassing my husband. Like I wanna do a show that's like relatable and funny
Starting point is 00:51:42 and that people can relate to, but also like I have a norm, I'm not the type of person who, that I have respect for my husband. So as long as your partner loves you and has respect for you, they really, they won't say something awful, you know? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:56 But even in the name of a joke. Yeah. I think that if it's weighing on you, you could ask him and be like, hey, is this kind of holding you back? Do you ever wish that you could make these jokes and you guys could have a conversation about it? You don't even have to wait for him to bring it up
Starting point is 00:52:09 because maybe he doesn't bring it up because he knows that you would say no. So I think you should broach the subject and ask him, see how he feels about it. And if this is something he's been feeling like, oh, I have these jokes, maybe you guys could start somewhere where he just runs them by you and not forever,
Starting point is 00:52:25 but just to get you comfortable with it. I think that like, I think it's awesome that he's gotten so far while respecting your boundaries. But if you're starting to feel like you're holding him back, then just ask him about it. I think this is nice. Yeah, you both sound like normal level-headed people who can have a conversation, which is amazing.
Starting point is 00:52:42 Is it always the case with your toasters? Or comedians. Facts. Was that a Burt Kreischer dig? No kidding. All right, ready for our next one? Yeah. Hey, Jackson Turd, this one sounds like a novel,
Starting point is 00:52:54 like a thriller. My maternal grandmother called me yesterday for a very casual conversation, but towards the end she mentioned that she and my grandfather were going to get their will made later this week. She explained that their cumulative assets total over $4 million and that the inheritance would be split between my younger sibling and I.
Starting point is 00:53:11 This was completely unexpected. She told me not to tell anyone besides my boyfriend. I know this will be so awkward when the time comes and my mom finds out. Both she and my dad will be shocked and hurt. She encouraged me to be transparent with my boyfriend. We've been together for over five years, live together and plan to get engaged within the year. Can I make him promise not to tell anyone? I don't really want his family to know. What do I tell? Who do I tell? What do I buy? Do I need a lawyer?
Starting point is 00:53:34 This is so weird. Granny's causing drama. Not even the fact that she wants to give it to you guys, which is, you know, her right to do, but that she wants you to tell your boyfriend doesn't want you to tell your mom, like why is she playing games this Grammy? Whatever you do, do not tell your boyfriend. Like, sorry, like to me, we'll get into your mom in a second, because that's fucking awkward, and like, you'll have to figure out whatever,
Starting point is 00:53:57 but like literally don't tell your boyfriend. Like I think you can like keep this close to the best. I don't think you need a lawyer. Yeah, and even if she wants to leave the money to you, why is she telling you now and causing drama between you and your mom? Like, granny's causing trouble. It would have been better for her to just like,
Starting point is 00:54:13 you know, when the time comes, like pass away and then like mic drop with the reading of the will, very, you know, very gossip girl. But she's like, but now- Putting this thing between you and your mom by one, the inheritance, and two, like the secret of it. What's Granny up to?
Starting point is 00:54:29 Yeah, and also like, is your mom like waiting on this money? Like- Yeah. I just, I like to respect young elders, and typically if there's a grandma like in a Deer Toasters, I'm always gonna take Granny's side, but like, what's granny got up her sleeve?
Starting point is 00:54:48 Yeah, there was kind of no reason for her to drop this bomb. Like it should have been posthumously. Also why she's only doing her will now. People have wills like throughout their lives. Yeah, maybe she's rejiggering it because she's like having an argument. With her daughter and she's like trying to get you on her side by giving you two mil.
Starting point is 00:55:05 Right, right, right. Granny's being petty. Do not tell your boyfriend. Like I feel like that's the more important part of this conversation. Oh, that's the other piece of this. That's so weird. Let it be like a nice thing once you guys get married,
Starting point is 00:55:16 like then you really can share, but like this is private. And boyfriends, I'm sorry, they come and go. By the way. You've been together for five years, yada yada. No. The money isn't yours yet even, so there's nothing to say. She could blow it all before she goes. She does sound also like a little bit
Starting point is 00:55:30 like a reckless kind of woman. Reckless granny. Maybe she changed her mind. She's giving reckless granny. I wouldn't count this money as your own just yet. It's so true. Maybe just sit quiet. And it's nice, I guess the only person
Starting point is 00:55:43 you can really talk to is your sister. Yeah. So kind of the- Talk to your sister. I wonder if granny told her something different. I think granny's playing games. Or did granny not even tell the other sister? It's giving like, what's that movie?
Starting point is 00:55:59 Knives Out. Yes. Like everyone thinks they are getting the inheritance. Oh my God. And granny wants to see what they all do. Keep it to yourself. Someone's gonna kill granny. Don't play this game.
Starting point is 00:56:17 I wouldn't get caught up in it. I agree. It's a trap. It's a trap. Go about your life as if granny never told you because you're not getting that money. I'm sorry to tell you. Yeah. It's getting diabolical granny. It's giving di, go about your life as if granny never told you because you're not getting that money, I'm sorry to tell you. Yeah, it's giving diabolical granny.
Starting point is 00:56:28 It's giving diabolical granny. Our third and final dear toasters is looking for a little bit more of like tactical advice, okay? I love tactical, I like actionable advice. I've heard this. Actionable. I've heard this marriage tip recently that when like your partner is complaining that you should say, do you want comfort or do you want solutions? And- I feel like that's what you would that when like your partner is complaining that you should say, do you want comfort
Starting point is 00:56:45 or do you want solutions? And- I feel like that's what you would say to like a kid, no? No, it's like when you're complaining about something- Actually, wait, I love that. When you're complaining about something, like do you want me to actually like tell you, like help you or just like commiserate with you?
Starting point is 00:56:58 Oh my God, that happened to me the other day. Like I, oh my God, Ben was, oh my God. I go straight for solutions, I'm solution oriented, which is why I like this dear toasters, that's why I brought this up. But it's a great question to ask, do you want comfort or do you want solutions? Oh my God, because no, Ben was coming at me with solutions
Starting point is 00:57:17 and it felt like an attack, like I was doing something wrong and that's why I was in this position. And honestly, like I got so bad at him and I was so wrong and I took my anger out on him because I was angry about something else. Oh my God, I love that. Can you like text that to Ben?
Starting point is 00:57:29 Yeah, oh, yeah. I was thinking like, I need it. That's so funny. I think Ben and I are really similar. Are we? Yeah, Ben definitely like takes on in terms of like emotions, like sometimes a little bit more of like
Starting point is 00:57:40 the traditionally feminine role. Like he's very emotional. No, I'm not emotional. Like if any- You're not, yeah. Yeah, I don't know. Anyways, I just thought it was good. Cause also when you just want comfort,
Starting point is 00:57:53 you don't want solutions, my friend. No, no, it's like stop. And I'm always- And it also forces a person who's struggling to be like, what do I want? You know, to be like, huh, that's a good question. It's good. Marriage tip of the day.
Starting point is 00:58:08 So speaking of actionable advice, I am a 30 something mother of two and since having children, I feel as if my vocabulary is embarrassing and limited. I find myself struggling for simple words and synonyms in my workplace. I was an advertising and marketing major in college and my written communication far exceeds my verbal, mostly because I have time to compose my words. I
Starting point is 00:58:27 am worried when I actually meet people for work, they think I am dumb. You both have such a colorful spoken vocabulary. Would you attribute it to being avid readers or something else? Please help. Please be the share Horowitz to my tie. I hope it's not sporadically. That is such a good question. I just have to say if I didn't do this podcast every day, that would be me like my your brain It's so easy for your brain to become mush Like you're talking baby talk all day like one word and you're trying to find the simplest word For what you're trying to convey to your child So it's totally normal and natural literally doing the show like forces me to exercise my brain
Starting point is 00:59:01 Which I'm grateful for but I do find it harder these days than it used to be for me to like reach for words. What was the word the other day I couldn't find recreationally? Yeah. So this is so real and I do feel like I have a very colorful vocabulary, but it's because I practice every single day
Starting point is 00:59:17 by doing this show. So I don't know if it's enough for you to just listen to shows like this or other shows where there's a lot of colorful language because maybe you can absorb some of it. But reading, of course. Right, no, but she really said, she has, it's not so much her knowledge
Starting point is 00:59:36 because she's like, I can write really well. She has the words, she has a hard time bringing them brain mouth, you know? Like connecting your brain to your mouth. And I feel like it kind of sounds like she needs brain camp. Yeah, but what is brain camp in tactically? What is brain camp? I mean, there are like a bunch of apps and games,
Starting point is 00:59:51 like I play this game, it's a board game, it's called anemia. And anemia, like the definition of that word is like, when you can't think of, like, you know the word, but you can't say it, it's like the brain mouth connection. It's actually a really fun game, but I also think it's actually like a challenge that would perhaps put you on the spot. So a board game.
Starting point is 01:00:09 Yeah, a board game. Also, I think maybe even just calling a friend, having more adult conversations, maybe a friend who's like your funny, lively friend, and it's just gonna be like an upbeat conversation that can help you just like exercise your mouth. You can practice. Cause when I go back and listen to like old episodes of the
Starting point is 01:00:28 toast, my God, I sound so stupid. I say sentences like filled with nothing, like, yeah, totally. And I'm still not great, but I say much more substance in sentences now. Yeah. It's a skill that you have to like fine tune. And when you spend so much time talking to children,
Starting point is 01:00:44 of course, of course It's so natural. But yeah trying to find more time for adult conversation Maybe a word of the day. I've never really stuck to a word of the day But the few times I've done it like I've gotten something out of it But I don't know really where I get my new words from we were having this conversation when I did Shannon's podcast She was asking about my vocabulary. Like how do I have such a big, vast, colorful vocabulary? And I do not know the answer. Reading definitely helps.
Starting point is 01:01:11 But I've had it since before reading. No, but the thing for me is like, I have to see and interact with a word like 10 times before I start to even wanna know what it means. Like mercurial is a new word of mine. And it's because it was in illicit affairs by Taylor Swift. And like, I was like, okay, that's a word. I just learned that word.
Starting point is 01:01:29 Then it started showing up in books a lot. And on my Kindle, I would like highlight it, look at the definition. It means like sort of like unpredictable, mysterious if you will. And words, I learned words like so randomly. Like even one of my favorite words, acrimonious. I learned from friends. So like, I just pick like so randomly, like even one of my favorite words, acrimonious. I learned from friends.
Starting point is 01:01:47 So like, I just pick up words randomly, but it takes a lot for a word to stick with me. Yeah. Unless you start using it all the time. Cause then we share, we word share. Yeah. Nefarious, of course. Elk.
Starting point is 01:01:59 Classic. That's a big one. Big. Low key. No, but don't feel bad about this and it'll come back. It comes and goes. It's hard. It's a total life change.
Starting point is 01:02:11 And also it's physical and mental. Like you literally, like it happens whether or not you start talking baby talk, and it also happens because you start talking baby talk. So go easy on yourself, girly swirly. Go. start talking baby talk. So go easy on yourself, girly swirly. Go easy on me, babe. That's our show. And tomorrow will be our last one of the week.
Starting point is 01:02:34 And then next week when we are back, Jackie and I will be together podcasting. So, you know what I realized also? Such exciting fun times. I realized that next week is a short week because it's President's Day on Monday. That's not next week, that's the week after next. President's Day isn't like after the Super Bowl,
Starting point is 01:02:53 it's the following week, sorry. True. And of course, let's give everyone fair warning, we will be taking off President's Day. Of course, we respect the presidents. I mean, God bless America. You know? Land that I love.
Starting point is 01:03:11 You know? I stand beside her. Yeah. And guide her. Through the night with the light from above. I love that song. They're all bops. Also like this land is your land, I love.
Starting point is 01:03:32 All of those songs of the American Elk. The Elk, yeah, they're beautiful. The Stars Fingle Banner, like. Like the Betsy Ross vibes. Hits, the hits start coming and they don't stop coming. And like chilling. No, and it's like they were written a couple hundred years ago and they still slay the house down boots.
Starting point is 01:03:49 A song that I put in that category that's like kind of not, and it's modern and like it has no semblance, but I just consider them all the same type of song is, And I'm proud to be an American where at least I know I'm free. Yeah, the green one slayed the house down boots. to be an American where at least I know I'm free. Yeah, the green one slayed the house down boots. Also, this land is your land. This land is my land.
