Good morning, girlies, it's the Toast. It's Jackson Claude and we're your hosts. It's your favorite show, the fast five things you need to know. We'll start your day off swirly, it's the Toast. I sound amazing. Welcome back to the toast and happy Friday. Happy Friday. Happy Fridays Coach Della. What a day.

I mean, first of all, let's just dive right in. Jackie Oh with the drop of the century yesterday. Excuse me Jackie, you dropped this. Thanks, Coachers, Lovers. Yes, I announced that I'm pregnant yesterday. It's such a crazy feeling to go from something being like the biggest secret in your life to then like the next day shouting it from the rooftops. It still feels wrong.

It's just such a weird transition. I'm like, why is everyone talking about this stuff? We're not talking about it. But no, it's actually been really nice that everyone is like so excited and it's getting me even more excited and I'm happy that I can finally share and like just be real. You know, my pants are unzipped. So if you see a little something, if you see something, say nothing. Oh, if you see something, say nothing.

How about that? It's so great to have our big secret out in the open. And I say our yes, this is about me too. Not only as an extremely involved and dedicated auntie, but also as a fellow pregnant sister, like, ma-ga-ten-um sister? We are preggers at the same time, which I think has been a dream of ours for so long, right?

Like, obviously I missed the boat the first couple of times, but when I say, like, I could not have planned that timing of there's pregnancy matter, like, and then you got pregnant, like. Yeah, no, it's very exciting. And we were most, like, we've just been so excited to, like, we have one week to be pregnant on the show together. I know.

Which we're gonna have so much fun next week. Next week is gonna be so swirly. Like what we've always dreamed of. Literally. So it is a fun energy, but like I was talking to Shannon recently as one does, and we were saying like, I don't feel like, and people are like, it's so special,

you're pregnant with Claudia. I'm like, I don't feel like I'm pregnant with Claudia. Like we are on just such different pages right now. Yeah, like the stages that we're in could not be more different, but it counts. It does, technically, yes we are, but I'm just saying it really doesn't feel like what you would think.

Yeah, no, we, it counts. Like so many people, like friends have texted me that, I'm like, yeah, it's so nice. Like it's just, it's not, it doesn't feel that way. Except every time we talk, we are both like in bed, no matter what time, makeup off, pajamas on, 2 PM, we're having calls, we're taking our merch calls, we are both in the bed. Yeah, yeah, that's true.

So on that, we're on the same page. But I do look forward to getting out of the bed soon and hopefully feeling better soon. That would be nice. Yeah, like- Having energy. Have you bounced back from the first trimester? You're still kind of like... It's not... People, they make it seem like just one day it's over. It's such a slowly slow phase out of the first trimester that like you don't even realize

you feel better because like you don't know weirdly a few days this week, I felt worse than I ever have like, like racks of saltines like I barely busted out the saltines and I forget that that's a good option, but like so unwell. So I don't know if it's like one last big hurrah before it starts to get better. But no, it hasn't happened yet, but you know, every day, okay, wake up.

Like hopefully today's the day. Today's the day. But we'll see. I mean, the good news is that I feel my best in the mornings. That's when the world needs me the most. So I'm here for the thirst. And, but there were times like in the beginning when after he did the toast,

like I seriously could have fallen asleep on this chair. You're telling me I hear you. I don't feel entirely that way anymore, which is great. And just looking forward to like new and different feelings, you know, cause it's, because it's constantly evolving and it gets better in some ways, but then harder in other ways. And we've really been plugging our Patreon

because in the next couple of months, while the toast is in a bit of a flex mode, the Patreon will be booing so many of you. And if there was ever a reason to join maybe a little early before maternity leave, join now, Jackie dropped a bomb ass log, which featured, not like me, when I was announcing my pregnancy,

I'm like, okay, I'll do one video for the announce and then one video for the gender reveal and one video for this. And Jackie put it all in one video. You want sisters reactions? Check. You want gender reveal? Check.

Like it's all in one. You want update? Like what about Sir Clutch? What about Jackie's cervical incompetence? Right. It's all there. She didn't make you wait like I did. No, I like putting it all together. That's also because I like how that's how I like to receive

stuff. So yes, the gender is there. I'm three for three on that. Like I'm always just like, I'm pregnant. Here's the gender. Even people were texting me like, what's the gender? Could you tell me? I'm like, yeah, here. There you go. Yeah, right. Oh, and will I say it right now? We're going to say it right now. No, no, no. Pinch your knuckles, slash your toes. No, I had to pinch your knuckles, slash your toes. Pinch your kn Oh, and will I say it right now? We're gonna say it right now. No, no, no. Patreon.com slash a toes. No, head to patreon.com slash a toes. Patreon.com slash a toes until it slips out one day. So it's a really good time to support women in media.

Of course, the Patreon's always popping off today, specifically, and then in the next couple of weeks, we've been batching some really great content. We're gonna be doing our regular daily, not daily, weekly show during my maternity leave in July and August on Patreon. So it's never a bad time to spend $7.99. Highly recommend you signing up for Patreon on a computer. If you sign up on your phone in the Patreon app,

Apple will charge you an extra $3, $4. That seriously we don't say. So head to patreon.com on a computer. Also, we recorded a super fun Patreon episode yesterday that's going to go live in a few weeks. We have like some May dates where there's no toast episodes, but there will be Patreon episodes. So just now's the time I feel like you might have been on the fence. You might say what is this Patreon? Never heard of her I've never been to this website. It's just patreon.com slash you chose You literally just like click sign up and you enter a login and that's it You have access to literally 300 episodes that we've done over the last seven years I feel like it sounds more intimidating than it is like a secret club. It's really not it's just a website

Yeah, and then you also get access to our Facebook group, which is just like an extra bonus. Some people spend the $7.99 a month just to get into the Facebook group. Yeah, that's also fine. Which I respect. I don't wanna like switch gears to tell you the thing that happened to me this morning,

unless you're like fully done, you know? I can be done, cause I left it all in the vlog. I look forward to updating you guys. It's your pre-Fast Five banter today. No, I know, but it's okay. I look forward to updating you guys as I have updates. So like if you want to talk about something else, like I could always bring it back to me if I feel the need.

But if you want to talk about the thing that happened to you, I'll give you the floor. You're going to be interested in the thing that happened to me this morning, but before I do, I just had an idea. When you come to New York, we have one week together being pregnant on the toast. I think we have to do a dual maternity shoot. Oh my God.

Because I'm kind of against it because I hate my body. But if we did dual, we honestly probably would end up looking like a lesbian couple who are both carrying babies. It's true. But I'm kind of against it because I hate my body. But if we did duel, we honestly probably would end up looking like a lesbian couple who are both carrying babies. But I'm down, I'm seriously down. It's true. I actually, as much as I want you to do maternity photos and I would encourage it, not that bad. Okay.

Like I'm not interested. Okay. But I will send you on a mystery, what's it called? Bus ride. Bus ride. We used to do those at camp. It was like the evening activities and mystery bus ride. And like, it was usually the same three places,

like the movies, bowling or whatever. But I love the concept of a mystery bus ride. I did one for my like 28th birthday. I took everybody to Chelsea Piers. They loved it. I'm gonna send you on a mystery bus ride to a maternity shoot. Okay, but you have to be,

the only way I'll do it is if you're also modeling. Like maybe I'll jump into a photo like Annie in the parent trap, but you have to be, the only way I'll do it is if you're also modeling. Like maybe I'll jump into a photo like Annie in the parent trap, but. Maybe we could just ask AI to make it for us. That like sounds frightening. Like when it comes to photos, AI doesn't have the eye. They don't have the AI. Okay, so permission to just quickly tell you about what happened to me this morning? It better be good.

I thought you said last night. It is. Okay. So Ben and I woke up super early this morning and it's like kind of a gross day outside. So we were just like making plans. You mean it's like, eh? Yeah, exactly. We were like planning dinner and he was like, do you have time like to get breakfast before

the toast? I'm like, yeah, it's always like a nice little treat, you know, especially I'm really trying to get in all my meals because once Bebe is here, I'm not gonna be eating the way that I've been eating. So I treated myself to pancakes. Yeah, right. Like seriously, you're gonna be hungrier than ever and more deserving than ever. Okay.

Like diet doesn't start the day you give birth. I just hope you know that. No, no, no, no, no. But I will be making better and more different choices. Not like 100% back to the way I was, but it's not gonna be as balls to the wall. I think you should just let go of that expectation. Oh, really?

Yeah, give yourself time, stop. You're so toxic. Okay, fine, fine. So we go to the most random diner. Seriously, I don't know why we ate at this place. It was honestly terrible, so random. We're in the middle of the most random. We sit down.

I'm in the seat that's facing the restaurant so I can see everything. Ben's looking at the bathroom. And I actually filmed Ben's reaction. I'm like, Ben, I'm about to tell you the craziest thing. I have to just film you while I tell you. I said, Ben, what if I told you that one of the Brunson boys is right behind you? Wait, his friend or Jalen Brunson? One of the members of the Brunson boys chat. Okay. He was like, well, I wouldn't believe you. I'm like, well, turn around.

Jack was right there, a fellow Brunson boy. It was actually- Jack has been unmasked. It was actually the weirdest thing, like to see someone you know. What time was it? Like just a random, like, if I told you, you wouldn't even know it. Like it was such a random hole in the wall.

And yeah, I'm not like I'm so chill. I mean, we just grabbed this. We just grabbed a slice and we go to grab the pancake. Let me tell you, Ben, Ben was regretting ever asking me to be a chill, grab a slice girl. It was one of the most disgusting meals we'd ever had. But to see a Brunson boy out in the wild, it truly feels actually like the world revolves. Do you feel like everybody's talking about the Brunson boys? I do, but did he say anything about the publication of the Brunson boys? Does he know? How did

the Brunson boys feel about their newfound fame? Of course they found out because we posted a clip about it. God forbid any of them ever like, you know, listen to my channel and support me. No, but I'm sure like there's a wife that does a girlfriend. Maybe, but that's not how they found out. They found out from the clip that we posted on the toast. They posted it in the chat and they were like giggling about it.

They love it. Like they're famous. Even I call them weenies. Yeah, but I don't think that part made the clip. So this part that won't. Oh, did it? It did, but maybe they didn't watch the whole thing. Yeah.

They just were like, whoa, Brunson boys, global global stage. Big things, big things. And then we ran into a Brunson boy this morning. The Brunson boy doesn't even live near us. Like it was so crazy. The world revolves around the Brunson boys. That's for sure. Yeah, that's for damn sure.

And actually, I feel like everybody's talking about like more so than Nix because they're headed home tomorrow. And if they win this game, which they very well could, the next game I think would be on Monday and it would be their chance to beat the Celtics completely. And it's also the same night that the Yankees and the Mets are playing each other at Yankee Stadium. But it's the first time I guess one of these huge Yankees player, Juan Soto, he last, this is a couple of months ago, he, before the season started, got traded to the Mets.

So this is like his big homecoming. Like they say they're gonna call, need to call in the National Guard for what's gonna happen. Potentially in New York on Monday. Interesting. We'll watch this space. Yeah, you better like seriously hide your kids hide your wife, lock your doors. I feel like we should go to one of the games. Maybe not you, but maybe me.

Why? Because literally said last two days ago, you don't want to go to anything. You don't want to go. Yeah, but if you're going Even if someone said they wouldn't talk to you, but they would give you a free ticket. No, but you're going. So like I have to go. Okay. Like if it's the fourth and potentially final game at MSG, like and I'm in town, I should go with you and the Bruns. 1000%. Even though Ben said like the worst seats in the house are $2,000. Interesting.

Well, that makes sense. But also we should get a suite like for the Brunson Boys like sponsored. Oh my God. That's actually so crazy that you said that because this morning I was thinking about how much we've monetized the Brunson boys. Like sponsored by, honestly W should sponsor the Brunson boys. Jake Paul should sponsor a suite for us to bring the Brunson boys and give them

like the night of their lives. Like kind of like make a wish. Literally. W, Jake Paul's brand, Get in touch, we have plans. Or Manscapes. Let's think of the male brands that we work with that would definitely like to work with us. We'll pick them up in a limo.

We'll make it a really- Mystery bus ride. Yes. Oh my God. We'll make it a really special night for the B Squared. Yeah. Love that. Oh my God, that would be so cute.

If any brand, does it have to be male-centric? Of course not. It could be- Free partnership idea. Could be Quince. You want to bring- I really want it to be W, honestly. Yeah, but if you wanna have an amazingly viral moment,

really get your brand out there. Maybe Jake Paul's betting app, he has like a sports betting app, better? Maybe Prime takes us. Sure. You know why I have the Prime hookup. I'm non-denominational, like I'll go with any brand. Yeah. I also have the Feastables hookup. And then TikTok would love us

because anytime there's like a brand trip, people are like, you should bring real people, like nurses, okay, like these guys, like one of them's a lawyer, like they're regular people. Like, let should bring real people like nurses. Okay, like these guys, like one of them, one of them is a lawyer, like they're regular people. Like, let's see if anybody cares about a brand trip of civilians. We're doing it. That is so funny. I'm so tired of that rhetoric. Like, I'm so tired of brands gifting influencers free products. Like give it to the regular girl. Okay. And who does that help besides the regular girl? Like, it doesn't help the brand, like,

I'm just so over it, that's just not how the world works. Like, yeah, it would be nice if all of the, it would be nice if hunger was solved, like, but it's not. Yeah, and I'm sure brands do donate a lot of product just because like they would otherwise throw it away. Like, I think they just like happened to also donate stuff. And I feel like every time they, these days, every time they do gifts, they also do like a donation

component, you know, just to like offset. Right, their carbon footprint. But it's just never enough. So sorry for like quickly, let's put the tracks back to you. Like that's my story. I saw a Bronson boy in the wild this morning. Back to you, how are you feeling? Back to me, I'm good.

I'm excited, I've got a lot coming up. We have a very busy month together, like very exciting things, work things, personal. So it's just, it's a busy time, you know? It is. It's a great time to be a toaster. Like so much happening in the toasty world. We have so many fabulous guests, I guess co-hosts booked for a maternity leave. And literally we're booked up and it's still coming in. People want to get in and it's still coming in. People wanna get in and we can't accommodate.

I'm trying to move things around, but like seats taken. Seats taken. Oh my God, there is a bar by one of our doctor's office. Called Seats Taken? No, but the way you said it reminded me. It's called Shaken Not Stirred. That's just the name of the bar. Seats taken. No, but the name of the bar. Shaken.

No, but the logo, the A in shaken is a martini glass, which looks more like a Y than an A. Me and Ben walked past it, we're like, Shaken. Like. Exactly. Exactly. I can't with you. It's such a bad logo.

Like I like the concept of using the martini as a Y. So you needed a different name for your bar, something that had a Y. You know, an A is, shiken. It pisses me off. No, every time we like drive up, we're like, shiken? But a martini does look like a Y. Yeah, and they're having it be an A.

Sorry, sorry. I just proved your point. a Y. Yeah, and they're having it be an A. Sorry, sorry. I just proved your point. Thank you. Yeah. No, it's a cute concept if your bar was called like Barry's. I don't know. Don't ask me why that came to mind. But like with a little martini at the end.

Yeah, yeah. Or like Brunson boys with a martini. Love. We need to get them to meet Jalen Brunson. Okay, so you know Jalen Brunson is like kind of Jewish. His wife is like a big Jew. Is she a toaster? I'm pretty sure, Ben like knows her.

I'm sorry, she's been listening to all of this and she hasn't reached out. So maybe she has, I haven't, I like, Ben is like tight with her. Oh right, we wouldn't know. We don't check her. We don't know, we never check our messages. And I'm sure she's like super busy.

It's like a very like high stress time for her, right? But you would think that that's when she would want a reprieve, like, let me just call up my girls. Yeah, let me just call up the swirlies. For a little bit of lulls. So there is like a yeshivish connection to Brunson as well, which is nice. Oh, okay.

We'll definitely explore this further. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And feel free brands just to reach out directly. We'll check our messages, we promise. We will. Yeah. But if you're like a high level brand, like you know how to reach us.

Get in touch. We work with brands every day. Have your people call our people. We work with brands every day. Call Michael Bostic. Call Michael Bostic. Curve, call Bruno. Oh, if anything was gonna give away

the fact that I was pregnant. Oh, it's Bruno's energy. It's the fact that Bruno has not left my side on the show for the last few weeks, whereas he used to never come on the show. So like- Because I've seen people being like, I knew Jackie didn't go on any rides at Disneyland.

Like she doesn't go on rides at Disneyland even before she got pregnant. So that was not like a tell. No, not at all. But I haven't seen anyone say anything about Bruno. So many people sent me their texts with their friends from like the day I went to Disney or whatever, like screech, I think Jackie's pregnant.

Like she didn't go on the rides and she's not eating the food. I will never, I'm not a rides person. You guys, Jackie won't even scroll on her phone in the car the tenasha she gets. That's like a ride. If you're looking for Jackie and she's in a long car ride, you cannot find her. No, and I was like so early,

like nothing that happened at Disney like happened because I was pregnant. I'm sorry to tell you, you didn't crack the case. But then there were other things. I forget what people said that was a giveaway, but I also felt like I was too tired to try and hide it. Being in your first trimester is so hard because you so desperately want to hide it, but you

also cannot care. Yeah. Like the fact that you got up that day is a miracle. Right. So just was doing my best, but yeah, that one was not a tell it would have been the exact same. Yeah, pregnant or not pregnant. Pregnant or not pregnant.

But Bruno has been the ultimate tell and nobody even said that. Nobody said I knew it when Bruno would not leave your side. Nobody said that either. Brusseldorf, but you know that he's a doula. Yeah, brula. Brulala. Brula the doula.

Brula the doula. So yes, that's how you know. Look at him. You know, it's Friday, which means Queenie and Weenie, which I'm really excited about. I've had mine for a couple of days. They haven't changed, which is exciting. So if it's okay with you, I'm fine to dive in. Yeah, I'm fine. We've got a lot to do like today at a glance,

not even on the show, like just in general. So might as well hop to it. Without further ado-da-doo-da-doo, it is time for the Fast Five Stories that you-da-doo need to know. And the Fast Five Stories that you-da-doo need to know is brought to you by Hulu and the Secret Lives of Mormon wives.

So the wait for more episodes of our absolute favorite show of last year. Jackie and I actually both ranked it when we did our year recap. Was it both our number one shows of the year last year? Remember we did our end of year recap? It was like one and two, yeah. Yeah.

The wait is almost over. It's coming back to Hulu with an all new season on May 15th. That's actually really soon. That's literally Wednesday. So we'll finally get to find out what's going on with our favorite saints and sinners. Are Taylor and Dakota still together?

Hopefully not. Are Jen and Zach still dealing with the aftermath of their trip to Vegas? I think so. Will Whitney be let back into the group after her actions last season? I'm also hoping not. Plus Demi and Jessie are finding out-

I think you're wrong about all three things. Well, I'm just saying, I'm hoping. Demi and Jessie are finding themselves in quite a bit of drama. Leila has a shocking discovery, and Miranda's arrival to the group to clear up the swinging scandal finally is happening. Miranda?

Yeah, she's new and she's like a part of, if you were there like on MomTalk at the time, she's a major player. Okay. So this is kind of, this is not to, corny, but I don't know if Mom Talk can survive this. Yeah, once again. So find out if Mom Talk is going to survive this on May 15. So don't miss the new season of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives coming to Hulu on May 15. I cannot wait. That's such a good show to have like in my back pocket while I'm just like

waiting around. Maybe maybe I'll watch it in the hospital. Cannot wait. That's such a good show to have like in my back pocket while I'm just like waiting around. Maybe I'll watch it in the hospital. Cannot wait, that's May 15th. Today's episode is also brought to you by Trufru. So very excited that Jackie and I are working with Trufru. I actually was just watching an Instagram story set of ours where we were laying in your bed trying to get our husbands to answer their phones because we wanted them

to bring us Trufru, do you remember that? And they like wouldn't answer and we were like screaming from your bed trying to get our husbands to answer their phones because we wanted them to bring us true fruit. Do you remember that? And they like wouldn't answer me. We were like screaming from your bed. That is so funny. No, but that sounds about right. We are true fruit loyalist. Jackie put them onto me, added to the list. And starting on May 4th, Target now has all the true fruit flavors in their freezer aisle. So the girlies in the true fruit office are all toasters. They knew how toasty we are when it comes to true fruit and how all the

swirlies are shopping at Target these days. And so make sure to stock up on your true fruit. So starting this month, all the flavors will be available in the freezer aisle at Target. I think a lot of times people can't find the flavors that they want at certain stores. And now that Target has all of them, it's just kind of huge. If you don't know what true fruit is, they take perfectly ripe fruit, they coat it in insanely good dark chocolate, milk chocolate, and then flash freeze it to lock in all the goodness. It's different because it has no artificial flavors and no weird stuff. It's just real fruit, chocolate and magic. It's kind of one of the go-to snacks

that I have when I'm being good on my diet and when I'm being bad because it fits in both categories. It's so delicious. I eat it like really 24, seven, 365. You can find all the flavors of True Fruit in the Target freezer aisle. It's a perfect post-dinner treat. Mid-day pick me up. It's really, it's the sweet treat before bed. Like to me, that's when True Fruit,

I like to take like a big handful and put it in like a cup and then just sort of like spend. Well, you can't let them melt in your hand. Right, spend the night doing that. So once you try True Fruit, you will wonder how fruit ever existed without chocolate. Grab your friends or anyone you love. Head to Target freezer aisle to try all the flavors of TruFru or your online grocery shoppers can buy

TruFru at target.com.

Our first story, they have elected a new pope major. Is American. I feel like we literally manifested this. When we were talking about the pope who passed, and then we were talking about the process of the conclave, we were wondering, had there ever been an American, there hadn't, and we were, I just feel like we put this out into the universe I didn't even know it was a

possibility until we talked about it yeah but maybe it's also just like America's time you know because what we have been a country for 250 years is that where we're at right now I think we're considered young right we are young and like the Pope has been happening for like a thousand years so like right that's why three-quarters of it're not gonna take from this rando new country. But I think now we're pretty established. And we're like kind of a major superpower, I would say. Yeah, so it was bound to happen.

Cardinal Robert Prevost announces of Pope Leo the 14th, he will make history, not herstory, let's just be clear, as the first American Pope. So Pope Leo comes out of Chicago. Not herstory, let's just be clear, as the first American Pope. So Pope Leo comes out of Chicago. That's his chosen name, his stage name, if you will. I would love to know why. Leo must be one of his favorite saints or a story.

Yeah, I'm sure there's a story behind it, especially if he's the 14th one. That means there were 13 prior that he obviously looked up to. Rich was popular. Pope Rob would have been cute. And I don't know if it's just because he's American and it feels familiar, but like his face, like I feel like I know this guy, you know? Like he's just so- Yeah, but I will say over the course of the conclave

and this process since Pope Francis' past rip, I've kind of like fallen for a couple different popes or cardinals along the way. The one from Jerusalem. The one from Jerusalem, pizza pizza. Yeah, a thousand percent. I was rooting for him. We were all rooting for you.

I was rooting for him too. And he was actually like, he wasn't a rando. Like he had lots of fans. That's a strong choice. He was a legit contender. Yeah, so I'm kind of like bummed for the people I was rooting for. There were a couple that I met along the way that I was like you seem like you've got What it takes the elk of a pope?

Instead we got Pope Robert, which I didn't know him before but I'm of course a proud American And 1000 percent happy to see one of your countrymen up there in the highest honor doing his thing for the papacy Yeah, so I think it's very exciting. I also feel like the entire process start to finish was quite swift. So this was a short one. Usually, like, I don't know how many times in the past, but every day, or I don't know how frequently,

they vote, and if they don't reach a consensus, they send out black smoke. So usually there's like a couple of black smokes. There was just one. And then the second one was white smoke, meaning they've elected a new pope. Also did you see Harry Styles at the Vatican? Well that was what I was gonna say next.

But who do you think was like the second one who like there was black smoke that day because it was between the two? Oh, I don't know runner up. And what does he do now? Like that was his chance Yeah, and yeah, this pope is 69 years young young So I think there's it could be a big future for him

I'm glad no, this is really a huge day for America I don't know like the real intricacies politically like I've've seen discourse being like, oh, he's too progressive. He's too conservative, which honestly, people are saying both. Sounds like he's pretty like standard right down the middle. Yeah. So I'm not going to claim to know like what the whole vibe is, but happy to be represented in the Vatican as an American. What was Harry Styles doing there? Yeah. So there's a picture going viral of what appears to be Harry Styles,

like in the crowd at the as a nobody, like not with security, he's just like wearing a baseball hat. So I don't think it's him. Oh, because also people forget Harry Styles is Jewish. He's like part Jewish, but maybe he was like in Rome for work or whatever, and this is a major historical moment. So you wade over to the Vatican to see what happens.

Yeah, but you're not going, like you're not fleeing your country to go to Rome during a conclave unless you're Catholic. But if you're already there, I just, it does sort of look like a random Roman man. Oh, you don't think let me study the photo. Hold on. I'm looking at this page six article. The only thing that is that he's wearing a coat that looks very similar to a coat he

wore out and about in London last month. So that's actually like pretty. Jackie, it is 100% Harry. Like I don't even know what you're talking about. I don't know. I feel like anyone could look like that. Like of all the global citizens of the world. Wait, why is somebody talking about the hat?

Techno is my boyfriend. Right, that's kind of a Taylor Swift reference. Is it? Karma is my boyfriend. Oh no, that's like an- No? Okay.o is my boyfriend? Right, that's kind of a Taylor Swift reference. Is it? Karma is my boyfriend? Oh, no, that's like an- No? Everything is my boyfriend. Techno.

Okay, okay. I mean, it's- how did this- how is there only one photo? I think he really blended. The papacy. Yeah, I don't know. I need more. I think it's him. I need like sunglass confirmation

or like confirmation that he has that hat. Or that he's currently rocking a big old mustache. Yeah, mustache or that he's in Rome. Or that he's particularly interested in the papacy. Well, I think that he could be in be interested in just history. Mm hmm. I'd walk over there if I were in Rome. 1000 percent, even though I was in Rome and like everybody was doing a tour of the Vatican. And I was like, you know, what guys on the day they elected new pope?

No, no. Oh, but if I was in Rome, the election, that's what I'm saying. You would not be able to stop me. They've elected a new pope. Right. Yeah. If I were in Rome, I don't know if I would visit the Vatican to depend on the schedule. On the day they elect a new pope, you got your ass there. I feel like I need to rewatch Eurovision now that I know so much about the papacy and conclave.

Cause I feel like the whole scene where they accidentally light the chimney on fire would probably hit harder. Yeah, you should. Yeah. Rew you should. Yeah. Rewatch it. We can project. Don't work too hard, Claude.

Don't work too hard. I seriously work way too fucking hard. Are you ready for our next story? Someone else is working hard. Hoda Cappie is on the list to take over Kelly Clarkson's talk show after her Today Show exit. Okay, I just wanna say, this is a hard story for me because I'm holding space for my two queens, but I don't like that we're having these types of conversations like about Kelly. Like it's like

it's about even cold yet. She hasn't announced like anything. We don't know that she's not in fact coming back. We don't know. And like why are we saying stories like this? Like calm down. Well, maybe it's because it's real. No, I'm just saying like I don like calm down. Well, maybe it's because it's real. No, I'm just saying like, I don't like it. I kind of like it. I don't know why, like the show has been amazing for Kelly. If she did it forever, I would be cheering her on.

But I'm also like ready for what's next for her. You can't like keep her in a box. You can't keep her down. And like, I don't know. It holds her back as a pop star. Yeah, I could see her having like a cooking show one day or like a whole, like, I don't know. I just feel like maybe she's ready for and you know, I like change. So I just think maybe she's ready for what's next. I don't disagree that it puts her in a box. And I think when it comes to like, even it's just it's a such a big national platform. But like, I think that, you know, she didn't tour chemistry, the album. And I think maybe the album suffered a little bit because her priority is this daily show.

I just think before we start filling her shoes, let's give her the courtesy of announcing first. Yeah, well, they're saying Hoda's being considered as a potential candidate to replace Kelly amid rumors that the singer is exiting her show. Well, I love it. Hoda is perfect. Yeah, and we also said what's Hoda gonna do next? This would be a major step up for Hoda is perfect. Yeah. And we also said, like, what's Hoda going to do next?

This would be like a major step up for Hoda to have her own show. Although it does give the Meredith Vieira show. They just remind me of like, America's Sweethearts. I think she was also the Today show, Meredith. And that was kind of a flaw. So it's like daytime such a tough thing to crack because this is like, obviously, Hoda is going to be successful. It's going to be the biggest show, but I could also see it like not working because you never know what's gonna work in daytime. Yeah, it's true. And I could see, I could see, I don't know.

I think Kelly Clarkson's like celebrity aspect was also, but Hoda has a lot of celebrity friends, but I don't know, like Kelly Oakey, she just had like a little bit more than the average. She's very dynamic. Yeah, she's not just a talker, she's a singer. And so it added, I actually think like the Kelly Yokey and the singing elements is what brought a lot of people

to the show, not Kelly's, you know, keen interviewing skills. Yeah. So we shall see, but I think this like is a good, they're trending in the right direction. And it would have to be like, if Hoda wants to do it, cause we don't really know why she left Today Show. Yeah, there were rumors that they just like weren't paying her like in her contract negotiations like what she wanted and enough for her to stay. Yeah.

But you don't just give up like a beloved talent like that unless it's her decision. I think it was her decision. That's what page six is saying that like NBC never wanted Hoda to leave. The question is, will she want to do it? Yeah, well Hoda also talks a lot about how she became a mom later in life and like these years wanted Hoda to leave. The question is, will she want to do it? Yeah, well, Hoda also talks a lot about how she became a mom later in life and like these years are really important to her. Yeah, but the hour that Kelly Clarkson show films,

like maybe they're in school. No, it's much more mother-friendly. And I also think you can batch episodes. Yeah. When you're like a live correspondent, you're at the helm of the network. And in the morning, like you're out of the house before they leave and you're back.

Before they wake up. Yeah, you don't even see them in the morning, like you're out of the house before they leave and you're back. Before they wake up. Yeah, you don't even see them in the morning. Like that's really tough. Yeah, I agree. Are you ready for our next story? Yeah. Lea Michele is making news.

She went on Theropos as we talked about yesterday and she admits to a fractured relationship with her Glee cast after Corey Monteith's death. So. I feel like this was the first interview I've ever seen Lea Michele actually let her guard down in. She just seemed very, she always seems very Rachel Berry, right, like putting on a front and very concerned about her image and not that she's lying or anything,

but just that you're being really careful. And this just felt very relaxed. I felt like for the first time she was was like talking about things like in an honest, actual way. Yeah, but there's no point on going on a podcast. Agreed. You could give an interview to like something random or a magazine and like keep your walls up

and ask these specific questions. But if you're gonna go on a podcast, like there's no point in doing it if you're not going to like open up and especially if you could choose wherever you go. And so she chose to do Jake Shane, like she obviously felt safe and is like, I'm gonna talk about things that I haven't talked about.

And I think she must feel incredibly misunderstood because she's just like, God, it's such a bad rap at this point. I do feel like she's misunderstood. That's a good way of putting it. Yeah, so it's like, you know what? I'm gonna give it a shot to like, let you guys know who I am.

Yeah, and see if it works. See if it works. I think so far it is. So this is what she had to say. She admitted that Corey Monteith's death in 2013 led to her having a fractured relationship Yeah, and see if it works. See if it works. I think so far it is. So this is what she had to say. She admitted that Cory Monteith's death in 2013 led to her having a fractured relationship with her fellow cast members. He had asked whether the co-stars banded together in a tight-knit way after the tragedy and

she quickly replied, no. She said, I think in some ways it did for certain people, but I think that for me it was so hard. I just completely broke. I was really in a one track mind of just doing my job. It was way too much to process at a young age, but I'm very grateful for everyone there. Whether or not they know it, I personally felt a lot of support from everybody in the building helping me to get through. She expressed gratitude to the crew members for helping her get through too, but she also said she was having such a hard time because she felt like she

wasn't allowed to stop and had to keep going because like if if she said, if we didn't show up for work, then people wouldn't have work to go to. That was a lot of pressure for me. I had to put my stuff aside and show up so that everybody could just continue to work. Yeah, I don't know if I would have assumed that after Corey Monteith's death, everybody got super close.

The cast was already kind of dramatic and fractured. And that's just like in an ideal world, like, yes, we all lean on each other. We love and peace and let's sing a song. But that's just like in an ideal world, like yes, we all lean on each other, we love and peace and let's sing a song. But that's like not how people deal with stuff. And I think a lot of times people just like sort of close in on themselves and wanna be alone. And that's clearly how Lea Michele dealt with it

and just like went to work. And also when work is so triggering, some people throw themselves into work, right? But work is where you were with your fiance. She's like, leave Cory on the show, do a whole episode episode singing about him. That's really hard. And she said a lot of the OGs weren't there anymore

because they had graduated by that point. So it wasn't like the room full of people. The people who grew up with Cory. Yeah, it was a little bit more splintered and that just must have been a really hard time. And so she doesn't address on their face the mean girl accusation rumors, but I can imagine how someone who's like going through this

and feeling very like isolated and stressed could come off as like a mean person. Also, if she was mean before that, which I'm sure she was like diva-licious energy, and then she goes through this big thing and she's not- No, she's mean and sad. Right, and everybody's like getting together to like, you know, lean on each other and she's not getting involved.

It's like, well, she's such a mean girl, you know? So it didn't help. Yeah. But I'm sure she was mean before that. Like, oh, for sure. I mean, she's like so talented. I do think she was like very Rachel Berry. I'm sure she's very different now.

And she's like been through a lot of different stuff. Getting canceled really humbles you becoming a mom, really like humanizes you. Before you pass away. She's definitely not even close to the monster that she was. But you have to think she was kind of plucked from obscurity. I know she had success on Broadway, but nobody knew her in a global sense.

And she just became this fucking star, and she was young, and she knew how talented she was, and she became a monster, 1,000%. Like literally, Rachel Berry. Very motivated, very driven, very sure of herself because she's- One track mind. Incredibly talented. Mm-hmm.

Yeah, and she's young. Like she was definitely like 1000%, like a nasty bitch. I could see it. Yeah, but even a nasty bitch deserves a second chance coach, don't you think? 1000%, 1000%. Yeah, so I think this will be good for her. Let me know how the streets, what the streets are saying.

The streets are just like, no one's talking about this moment. They're talking about her talking about the- The reading. Rumors about her literacy. Yes, which, you know, better late than never, her finally getting it on the joke. And this is just something like

whenever the internet talks about it, like you're guaranteed to make waves and have people care. I'm over it. Like, I've just, I've been knowing about the conspiracy theory since like the day it started. I've been following it since the beginning. And I'm just like, I don't think it's so funny anymore. Like I'm over it.

Do you think that maybe she waited so long to talk about it so that like she could learn how to read over the last few years? And then she wouldn't be lying. And then she came out and she read public and it's like, of course I know how to read. How silly are all of you? But the truth was that four years ago, she didn't know how

and that's why she didn't do it. That's why she did a live reading. Right, and so she's not technically lying now by saying she knows how to read, but she's not saying that she didn't know how to read back then. I'm just saying it took a long time for her to come forward with this. And in that time, she could have learned how to read back then. I'm just saying it like it kind of took a long time for her to come forward with this.

And in that time, she could have learned how to read. Yes, I think it took her so long because she's like so stubborn and like thought it was so stupid and beneath her to even address. But that's a good theory too, I like yours. Yeah, not saying that that's the case. So I'm just saying she's leaving a little bit of space for the conspiracy theorists to still be right.

Because it's like, no, when we said it, you couldn't read. Do you feel like learning to read as an adult is like, ow, oh my God, big kick, sorry. Do you feel like learning to read as an adult is like a really hard thing to do? I don't know, because it's like kids do it. So wouldn't that mean that we can do it in like one day? Yeah, but like we do it as our brains are developing.

So it becomes a part. Like I don't know what it's like to learn how to read later in life, but I actually feel like it would be kind of challenging. Yeah, but is it easier than when you're a child? But it's also about like learning new languages. They say it's easier to learn a new language when you're younger versus when you're older.

However, I don't know. Something about it's like, well, your brain's bigger now, can't you do it? Yeah, right. But it's also harder to learn, like I feel like if I had to learn how to swim now, I wouldn't do it. Well, that's also a mental thing.

Like I wouldn't be able to. Fear. The fear, yeah. Like when you're fearless, it's easier to learn how to do stuff, like driving. Right, and then it becomes just like innate to you. And then by the time you realize like the thing you're doing, you're like, oh, I can do this in my sleep.

I would love to know what it's like to learn how to read today. Ask Leah. Hello. Are you ready for our next story, our fourth story? Yeah. Interesting new Lemmy ads starring Kourtney Kardashian and Julia Fox.

Julia strips down in a bathtub for a tantalizing new Kardashian ad. So Julia Fox slipped into a bubble bath for a sultry new ad to promote a mysterious new product from Kourtney's Lemmy brand. The video was released yesterday. Julia is examining a purple bottle as she is soaking in the tub.

She's then on the phone with Courtney saying, "'Court, are you seducing me?' And then Court said, no. They don't say what like the launch is. She said, no, you will love it. It's our new cut. Blank. But like, okay, curious what the launch is.

I'm sure it's like something to do with like sexual wellness. More interested in the fact that the family's bringing in Julia Fox. Yeah. It's not that crazy given what they've done historically, right? Like the black china of it all. This is like an incestual type of family. And they are... It's not like this is Bianca Sensori, right? They're technically on the same side. They're both just exes of this freak. I don't know. I feel like they freak. No, I don't know. I feel like they, I mean, I don't know what this means, but if I would have thought,

if you asked me about this yesterday, I would think that the family really wouldn't like her because she literally only got famous because of him. And it's just like a weird- Yeah, but I feel like they don't, I feel like they would respect that. Like that's kind of their formula. I don't know.

Or does this mean Courtney and Kim are fighting? I don't know if they would be bothered by that. But Julia, like to me, is like very non-threatening and kind of harmless to the Kardashians. Maybe there was a time where she wasn't, but she's definitely been. She is, she is, but I just feel like they would like, I don't know, just not be about it.

Look down? Yeah, like at the ick. But I obviously am wrong because they're working together, but I'm just like, I'm shocked by this. Or maybe they do feel that way. But like marketing is marketing. Look, we're talking about a new let me drop. Have we ever done that?

All the time. We have? Yeah. I don't know. I don't think it's effective. Courtney's not like a shock marketer. I still don't think they would bring in someone who they hate. They hate a lot of people. They would not bring them. No, but this is 100% like Simon Huck's idea. Courtney's not like a shock marketer. Like I still don't think they would bring in someone who they hate.

They hate a lot of people. They would not bring them. No, but this is 100% like Simon Huck's idea. You're right. Courtney doesn't think like this. Yeah. So maybe Courtney doesn't even know who she is. No, they obviously filmed it separately

because they're in two different sets. So they said, Courtney, here's your script. We got a model on the other end. Literally. I do feel like I need to know more. I could see this being a storyline on Kardashians because it's just like a promotion for one of their businesses.

And talking about like innocuous drama. Like it's kind of the perfect thing that they would talk about on the show. And you know what? It's kind of following the Skims model where Skims obviously does all these different like model partnerships. And a lot of times we're like always talking

about like the celebrity dynamics of it all. Like when Lana Del Rey or Britney Mahomes or Sabrina Carpenter did. Like we like always talking about like the celebrity dynamics of it all, like when Lana Del Rey or Britney Mahomes or Sabrina Carpenter do it. Like we're always talking about like, what does this mean for like the behind the scenes? And so maybe this is just Lemmy's take on that because it is a really smart way of we're always talking about it. Why would we be talking about some random company's new drop? Yeah. Yeah, I don't know. It's just so out of the box to me. It is but that's what the Kardashians do. They care most about their bottom line.

Not really Courtney. No, but also when you say Sabrina or Lana Del Rey, those are all big figures and yeah, that makes sense. You wanna get a big name for your brand. To go into the drama pool and take someone out. Your own drama pool. Your own drama pool. That's different.

I know. It's just so much has happened since then. Like I don't even remember. It would be like Kim doing a campaign with Blac Chyna at this point. Yeah. Which is within the realm of things the Kardashians would do. Or like Amber Rose. In the realm of things the Kardashians would do. But there's the realm of things Kim would do and the realm of things the Kardashians would do. But there's the realm of hard things Kim would do and the realm of things Courtney would do. This is definitely, I feel like Kim and Courtney

are maybe getting close because this feels like Kim rubbing up on Courtney. Or they're fighting and she's getting back at her by putting Julia Fox in it. No way, she had Kim's approval. I'm just saying. I don't think Kim thinks of or loses sleep or thinks anything of Julia Fox, honestly.

No. Maybe there was a time. Me neither. I just need more information. And then I also want to know what the product is. Because she has like a sexual wellness one already. Yeah, she already has like a vagina one. Yeah.

She has like two. So maybe it'll make more sense to us when we know what the product is. Yeah. Maybe it's like Fox tablets. Yeah. You know, there's like Lion's Mane. That's like a thing. Fox Mane.

Unless it's Fox Mane. I have so many more questions, but if it's Fox Mane, I would say, oh, that makes sense, Julia Fox. Well, hopefully all will be revealed. I need to know more. Just saying. Or like we need to get the tea. Text Simon. Honestly, yeah.

I'm like, can I just spoil the lodge for Julie Fox? Like, for you and I. I just like, I'm very curious now.

So you wanna change the world. That's such a classic, like early 2000s, pivotal scene in a moment in a movie. Pivotal moment, stroke?

Wait. Pivotal scene in a movie moment. Thank you. There we go. We got there. I'm glad you got that off your chest. Thanks, barely. Our fifth and final story,

a Yellowstone spin-off with Luke Grimes, AKA Casey. Oh please, like I seriously have had enough. Is ordered at CBS. The new Yellowstone series centered on Casey Dutton has been greenlit at CBS. Variety has learned the project was first reported to be in the works at the network in March. CBS has given the show a 13 episode order

With plans to begin shooting this summer to launch at midseason 2026 on Sunday nights Okay, like seriously added to the list of countdowns the news. Yeah. No, I just feel like being a hater. Like this is a good idea I just feel like being a hater. Um I'm always like open to a Yellowstone spinoff because the original show was so pargy But like Casey is so goddamn annoying. Like pick a worst fucking family to follow. I hate him and his wife and that kid is annoying as hell. Like Casey himself, like seriously, like, weedy.

I don't care. And it's like we're following someone. We're following someone from the original show and it's not Beth and Rip. Get the fuck out of here. Until there's a Beth and Rip spinoff, like we don't want other spinoffs. If you give us Beth and Rip spinoff, we might be open to your other spinoffs. But while that's just sort of hanging in the balance

is the thing that we actually want, I don't want this. There are also so many things hanging in the balance when it comes to Yellowstone's like. Triple sixes. Right, triple six, the Matthew McConaughey member, like, all these different things, like fuck off, like seriously, leave us alone,

they're starting to annoy me. It's giving Game of Thrones, like this big amazing show, they had all these big ideas for spinoffs and prequels and schmequels and lequels, and I don't care anymore. Yeah, I agree, but you know, it's like the Game of Thrones universe, like they're not just gonna like let this big chunky- Thing go. Profitable nugget that has so many fans go, so They're not just gonna let this big, chunky. Thing go.

Profitable nugget that has so many fans go, so we're gonna try and make it work. And they've done some good stuff with like 1923. People really like that. Okay, yeah, but like CBS. Well, that's crazy, because the show was on Paramount and like CBS is like the big kahuna. Parent company.

Of Paramount. Viacom, yeah. But like, name one show that gets watched on CBS. Okay, I think like Big Brother or whatever, but like. CBS News. You know what I mean? It's so random. CBS Today.

Like where, okay, let's say you wanna stream something that was on CBS, like where do you go? Paramount Plus. Got it, okay. So like just stick with Paramount. Yeah, Paramount. Just stick with Paramount. Nickelodeon. Vi. So like just stick with Paramount. Yeah, Paramount. Just stick with Paramount. Nickelodeon.

Viacom. Right, Viacom. They're a weird family. Yeah, they are. It's kind of like this like misfit toys. Like you'll never be Disney Hulu. ESPN, NBC. NBC Bravo, you'll never be it. Peacock, yeah.

No, like the different conglomerates like have different energy. Like NBC has a lot of swirly energy, right? They have Peacock, yeah. No, like the different conglomerates like have different energy. Like NBC has a lot of swirly energy, right? They have Peacock, they have Bravo. No, and they're just like the one to beat. No, but then like Hulu, Disney, ABC, ABC, Hulu, Disney, ABC, ESPN, they're like a very cool conglomerate.

No, they're like the two cool kids that are in competition. And then you have like Paramount. Viacom. That's just like weird with the glasses. Nickelodeon, Paramount, CBS, like, okay. Viacom. That's just like weird with the glasses. Nickelodeon Paramount CBS. Like, okay. Good luck.

Sure. Those were the Fast Five, which is sad that they're over. Smile because it happened. But I'm smiling because I mean, it's time for Queenie and Weenie of the Week, our final segment of the week, where Jackie and I like to give out some awards, Queenie of the Week and Weenie of the Week. Just take a look back at the week at a glance, who was doing Weenie-like things,

who was doing Queenie-like things, nominate them, and just to set this serious, you guys, it's a seven week title. If you ever find yourself being Queenie or Weenie, don't get too comfortable, okay? Because you could find yourself Queenie one week, Weenie the next. It hasn't happened, but sure.

Okay, Queenie. My Queenie is Kylie at the Davids. My girl, moving on up. They said she'd never be at the David's on Timothy's arm. And they did say that. And there she was just down the street from the new Pope. She's my Pope S. I love that.

I wonder if they went to the Vatican in like baseball caps because they were in Rome. Are the, the, the Kardashians are Christian, not Catholic, right? No, yeah, but like, I think anyone just like, It's still cool. Just like I said, I would meander down. It's still interesting and historic.

Yeah. So, Kylie at the David's major queenie moment. My queenie actually goes to somebody whose name I don't know, but whoever, you know, whoever I had the idea to bring back Shaws of Sunset, you are my Queenie of the week. Like brilliant, completely unique, not ever been done before.

Like I've been begging for this. Good on you for knowing what the culture wants, what the culture needs, and I thank you for your service, unnamed man or woman. For my weaning, I am betwixt two weenies. I feel like we might have the same one. I have one. But it's like not because I feel like I have two amazing choices.

I have like two weak, like, Jackie, you don't have to convince me. Do both. Why don't you tell me who yours is? And if that is one of mine, then that will go. The crown will go to them. My weenie of the week is going to be Zach from the valley. That was one of mine, then that will go, the crown will go to them. My weenie of the week is gonna be Zach from the valley. That was one of mine, so there you go. It was such a bad episode for him,

mostly because of Benji on a stick. Like it was seriously the lamest thing. My weenie on the week is Benji on the stick. No, but Benji himself, like hasn't done anything. I need to write down Benji on a stick. They just keep foisting Benjana so I never forget this. Zach is weenie of the week. Like I just feel like I'm getting to know him because I'm new to the valley and I'm not liking what I'm seeing. I completely agree. It's incredibly weenie

like behavior. My other person, I was struggling to crown them because it wasn't feeling weenie. Like it was who? No, please say it please. Gochi. She was up for me too, like it was. Who? No, uh. Please say it, please. Gochi. She was up for me too, but it's not, it wasn't Weenie behavior. It was Diva behavior. It's bad behavior. Yeah, it was giving Diva of the week. But when the person who assembled Benji on the stick

had a Weenie in their heart. Did, who actually put the glue on the stick and like printed out the picture, was it Zach? I don't, We need an investigation. Whoever it was. It was so horrible. It was so horrible. It was so horrible.

I can't believe like they could do hours and days upon footage. I cannot believe they left that in. That they included it. I blame everyone. I'm glad that they did. It starts at the top. I blame producers, editors, Zach. Yeah, it starts at the in. That they included it. I blame everyone. I'm glad that they did. It's just at the top. I blame producers, editors. Yeah, it starts at the top.

Alex Baskin. Zach. And I don't know, like who had a printer? I feel like Zach doesn't have a printer. They had to go to FedEx. I know like a lot of work went into this. Who bought the Popsicle stick? Every single one of them.

Like, we're going to just sum it up as Zach because without Zach there would be no Benji on a stick. But it takes a village. But a lot of people were involved. Accomplices. That was your final episode for this week. What's so fab is that next week, Jax is coming to town. We're recording in person for the entire week. The week after that is the official start of my maternity leave. There will be no toast that week. There will be no toast that week.

Up and down the coast. But we'll see you on Monday, she's doing it all. So it's gonna be fab. Up and down the coast. But we'll see you on Monday, just like two swirlies.
