Good morning, Millennials. Welcome back to The Toast, and happy Thursday. Oh my God, it's just now sort of settling in, the latter half of the week, energy. LH levels are high. LH levels are high, correct. Happy Thursday, LaTurd. Oh, happy Thursday to you and yours.

Thank you so much. I am sitting on the world-renowned hemorrhoid pillow. Did you get the one that I have yeah I shopped your affiliate link so you're welcome for the women in business for the retirement fund I do feel like a four-year-old in a booster seat at a restaurant I know I know and let me tell you feel like the eight-year-old driving her mother's car to target 1000 but let me tell you like the benefits so outweigh because let me tell you this thing the benefits so outweigh, because let me tell you this thing, when I'm wearing black pants on the toast. You're going to tell me? I'll let you tell me.

Let me tell you. When I'm wearing black pants on the toast and then I have this black pillow, I look like I have the fattest ass, like wide and like sort of like I'm melting into the couch. Understood. Not good. However, I'm wearing a skirt and then my pillow is gray. My chair is cream. Like there's contrast. I might just look like a mess. Like you'll know where I start and end, but it's not going to be pretty. Now we have a gargi pargi episode.

It's Thursday. It's like that day between Wednesday and Friday is how a lot of people would describe Thursday. And it also is a day where we just can kind of relax and unclench. Like Wednesdays are really busy here at the Toast with Zero Toasters. And then Fridays, Queenie and we just can kind of relax and unclench. Like Wednesdays are really busy here at the Toast with Zero Toasters. And then Fridays, Queenie and Weenie, we're wrapping things up. And Thursday's just kind of where we stop and look around. Yeah, we definitely take stock of where we're at, recognize and appreciate the space that we're in. How are you feeling about that? Well, I'm feeling really crazy today because I was at Margo's apartment on Friday.

And we have a wedding and she was showing me what dress she's wearing because I was at Margo's apartment on Friday and we have a wedding and she was showing me what dress she's wearing because I need to get a dress. And so it, you know, obviously she got undressed. I'm just, I want to give a little context as to why I saw Margo's bra. She had on such a gorgeous bra. And I was like, you know what? I'm going to get it. Like you have like bra FOMO. No, because I'm like, and the thing I'm realizing is I don't have bra FOMO. Like I have breast FOMO. Like I looked at Margo's breasts. I'm like, wow, that bra makes her breasts look so nice. She just has like a better breasts in me because I got this bra.

I'm wearing it today. First of all, it's like definitely the wrong size. It's Calvin Klein. It's sheer. It's definitely like underwire. Jackie. No, no, no, no, no. It's like, I would love to show you.

Like I really would. I don't know what I'm doing. You know, I feel silly. I feel stupid. It was, it's been less than a week for you to figure that out. I feel like that's pretty good timing. Some people go months, like before they realize, what am I doing? Yeah. This is my first wear and I know immediately that it's not for me. Okay. Well, people make mistakes. And there are just things like I can be inspired to buy from Margo and I just I've now learned bras is not one of them yeah I need to be influenced by like older heavyset older maiden type yeah old maiden type of bras like those are the people I need to follow

for bra influence it's so true it's just like I try so you wouldn't recommend well if you are young and tight like if you don't need a bra right here if you do down to Orchard Street you go well I had a very exciting evening last night because I went to HomeGoods for the first time and the world has just opened up to me yeah I feel like you saying you've never been to HomeGoods is not something you should be proud of. Like, it's disgraceful that you've never been. No, I know. And I was put on to HomeGoods when we were in the Hamptons because Ben went every other day to get a little this, a little that for his cooking.

And he always, like, wanted me to go with him. And I was like, if I go, I'm going to buy so much stuff. And I need this stuff at home, not for our one month left on our rental. So I didn't go. and I waited till I was home so that I could get all my tchotchkes and home goods like was everything that everyone said it would be the only thing is I actually think for me personally I went at a bad time of year because everything is Halloween right now and that's not my joy you know I just like breeze right past it I don't like fill my home with Halloween stuff.

It's just like, I just don't. There's, you know. You don't have to explain yourself. I don't have to explain myself. Like. You are though. It's like a pagan holiday. And like the colors are not pleany.

So there was a lot of real estate at the store taken up by that, that I just had to, I look forward to seeing what's there when it's not Halloween. But all in all, like I did so well. I'm still thinking about things that I didn't buy. think I'm gonna go back today and buy them home goods is a really special place there are I think one or two in the city they don't hit the same like an urban home goods it's not even close to like I also feel like like uh strip mall home goods I feel like an urban home goods is like an oxymoron. They contradict each other because like when you're living in a city in smaller spaces,

like you don't have the space for odds and ends and knickknacks. Like you actually should not have those things really. Well, but when you have like a more space and you need things to fill it up, ergo home goods. But the thing about home goods is like you can find the essentials there too and for a really long time there was an enormous pier one imports like in flat iron I feel like that really served the purpose for New Yorkers we never felt like we needed a home goods we had the pier one I feel like it's closed um I feel like pier one in general like did they file for

chapter 11 I don't know it's pier one in the room with us I feel like they're not and like it was good you know it was yeah no I had the room with us. I feel like they're not. And like it was good, you know? It was good. No, I had the essentials because otherwise how did I get here without my essentials? So I was really going for crapola.com. And I found so many fabulous crap-y things. But like in a real way, I'm very, very excited. I think this is the start of a really great relationship between HomeGoods and I.

No, Home home goods is amazing Yeah, like it was everything I was like hoping for and I felt like I also feel like sometimes maybe you don't have a good Home goods, you know, everyone's could be different either low inventory. You don't get the good stuff I think they definitely at home goods HQ have a quality control issue. I'm being dead serious I think a lot of stores are like that. There are some like run down bad HomeGoods. There are some like good stores. It just depends really.

But I, my HomeGoods was good. It was a good HomeGoods. It puts the good in HomeGoods. So I feel HomeGoods proud. I'm so glad that you've had this awakening. It's the best place on earth. I think it's akin to like for me, what people feel to target you know

like yeah spend the whole day getting a big you know drink and roaming around target yeah yeah I'm surprised that eight-year-old girl didn't drive to home good she obviously isn't in her nesting area you can't like spend the whole day walking around because the more you fill your cart like the more of a hazard you become because like there's like mugs sitting on the corner of the shelf there's vases everywhere And like my cart was full. My cart run is over. And you've got like three Ottomans in your cart. And I was like, I'm a hazard.

I'm going to take down a shelf full of stuff. Like it's time to go. It's not a store you can shop in haste. You really need to be careful and considerate while shopping. Not just zooming around. You max out. You can't just like, honestly, I was halfway through the store and I was like, I guess I have to leave because my cart is full.

No, people literally like be putting full couches in their carts. But I feel like the people who work at HomeGoods like want you to break stuff. They definitely have like a terrible policy where like you break it, you buy it. And they put probably the cracked things on the edge so that you do break it and you have to buy it so they don't have to eat the cost. A thousand percent. That's my HomeGoods conspiracy because because like seriously how are people not knocking things over?

And every which way. The one in the city like everything's on top of each other like it's real it's not even spread out it's really crazy. No what if there was an earthquake? There was that earthquake one time what happened at Home Goods New York? I actually think the last time we were there which was for our old apartment Ben broke something and just like ran away. Classic. Also one thing that I really wanted was crack our old apartment, Ben broke something and just like ran away. Classic.

Also, one thing that I really wanted was crack, so I didn't get it. But it's like, who did that to me? Why don't you check online? That's what Olivia said. But is HomeGoods online? I was going to say, I feel like HomeGoods does not have an online e-commerce presence. It definitely wouldn't hit the same. No, the magic really needs to be experienced IRL.

I agree. However, like if you find something in the store and there's only like one, but you need two, like Olivia found a pillow she really liked. It'd be really great if they had online to just like add to cart. By the way, that happens a lot. I see people on TikTok like get the viral home goods and they go to their home goods and they're literally driving all around town looking for the second ottoman or whatever. Oh, goodness.

Yeah. Okay. I could see that like being in my future future but i don't want to spend my days like that like i think if there's only one it's not meant for you be bygones there was only one of the days i liked and i had to leave it oh devastating maybe i'll go back because where i would put it you wouldn't see the crack you just have to find out when inventory day is at your local home goods so that you go the next day. You're like, yeah. Yeah. I feel like I'm going to get up. I'm going to get on like HomeGoods reels now. I feel like

when I was there, I could really, like, I was like, I've seen this in an influencer's kitchen. What is, I'm like really blanking on, what is that brand that we became obsessed with that has the mugs with the font? Ray Dunn. Ray Dunn. Ray Dunn is a cornerstone of home goods. So much. The Ray Dunn Swirly is like they wait outside home goods on inventory day. So you just need to get in with them. You need to get in with your local Ray Dunn community. I feel like Ray Dunn is not done, but like there was so much surplus there

that it's not what it used to be in terms of deficit. There's no demand. Well, the demand was met and now like everyone got what they needed now they have all this stuff now they have all this supply all this pile of stuff yeah um ray dunn reminds me i don't know why i like can't think of stuff today lula roe lula roe the venn diagram elk the venn diagram Definitely in the same elk The Venn diagram Of LuLaRoe Sellers

And Ray Dunn Like girls who wait Outside the store Is just a circle Yeah There were these Two chairs Like

What would you call it Like sofa chairs Almost That I really want to get Like how do I get those In my car You have to go with Zach And you need to take

Zach's car Not yours Yeah Maybe we both go And we put one in each car that's the thing about home goods like not only does it require a keen and how do I like get those chairs to the um checkout counter so it also requires like a physical strength um and like a logic like a real sense of logic like what's the best way to get this enormous chair to the checkout to my car and it's not like ikea where they give you those huge like dollies it's literally the same shopping cart you would use at the grocery store no and the aisles are tiny because there's so much

goodness to to be had it's so true i love this journey for you do keep it thank you i will i will let you know about the chairs and the vase. Of course. And you know, whatever else I might find. They're selling like huge diptyque candles. I saw them on my way out. Wow. Yeah. So I might have to go back. And you know, HomeGoods is a part of the TJ Maxx and Marshalls family. Like they're all owned.

How does that family work? What's their relation? Well, in the city, there is the Marshalls in Flatiron on like 18th Street is a part of one big store that has a Marshalls, a TJ Maxx. I don't know if there's a HomeGoods still there. That was like at Breach Hampton Commons and like you didn't know which store you were at. But it's because they're a part of the same conglomerate.

Okay, but like what's the differences in what they sell? Oh, well, TJ Maxx is like overstock, right? They get deals on high-end items for much lower prices. From where? from the brands. Like you always know it's a bad sign. This used to be a thing that Jeffree Star used to do. He would go to TJ Maxx and see what brands aren't selling. And when you have so much product that's not being sold, you sell it to like a TJ Maxx to sell at half price. Got it. Okay. So that's TJ Maxx. Marshalls I feel like is a very entry-level department store okay you know it's like kind of a a Macy's but

more accessible I got it because they home goods like doesn't have like clothes no Marshall's has clothes got it okay and home goods is kind of the furniture department of Marshall's well I could also say like home goods thank you for explaining it in the title it's goods for your home Marshall's should be called like everything goods for your closet everything good closet goods yeah I agree Marshalls is kind of a terrible name yeah like I don't know what you're doing when I think of Marshall I think of like a large older gentleman named Marshall but like Marshalls like and Lowe's the two names like they're just like they do very different things the stores but like Lowe's could be Marshalls and Marshalls could be Lowe's. Like, what are you selling?

It's actually so true. Like, you know, it's a great- Like at least TJ Maxx, I know it's like, what is that? But at least they've established like Maxxinista. Like I know I can be like a fashionista, but a Maxxinista if I go to, like, I know. They worked with what they had and they made the most of it from a branding perspective.

I completely agree. I think the Home Depot is a great name for a brand. Like, you know exactly what you're getting. Yes, thank you. I'm going home. Bed, name for a brand. Like you know exactly what you're getting. Yes, thank you. I'm going to Bed Bath & Beyond. Thank you. Well, that did them no good because they went out of business. Stop.

That's such a loss. It's such a loss. It's really a loss for the girlies who are engaged because having your registry at Bed Bath & Beyond was like a life hack. You could really, you could return like this expensive mixer someone got you and buy anything. Yeah, it's true. It was the best place on the planet. I miss it every day.

Actually, like my life is. For the girlies who are going to college or going to camp, like where do you go? No, that like big Bed, Bath & Beyond trip you took when you moved into your first apartment, like you needed everything. Cups, silverware. That's like one of the fondest moments of my life. And I remember when I went, Ben's mom drove us. And when we were getting out, she gave us her credit card.

Like so generous, we were like, oh my God. We were our first apartment. We had to buy everything. And then we went like a little nuts. We were being disrespectful, but queen. Ba ba da da. Spend a little time with me. Speaking of shopping, Johns, a little update from yesterday's story.

We've got a lot of information about the eight-year-old who went to Target. I just want to share with the class. She's 5'3". First of all, the eight-year-old's former teacher at her school said that she's 5'3". She also made a very interesting comment saying, like, if you knew her, this isn't surprising. Troubled youth youth what does that mean troubled youth also video of the eight-year-old driving on the street yeah that to me put the whole situation in perspective like we're having a lot of fun if you saw the way this girl was

driving seriously it wasn't impressive no not in the slightest and it was a true hazard thankfully she lives i want to say in like kind of a remote area because there was no one else on the road. And maybe it was a time of day, like a quiet time of day. There was no one else on the road. And the one person who was on the road with her, like called it into the police and literally said, like, it looks like a kid is driving this car. So like nothing to be admired there.

No. Also, people who do live in Bainbridge have said that you do not need to get on the highway, that she didn't drive on the highway. And she was driving a Nissan Rogue. So that's like the information I feel was pertinent to the situation. Also, Tom Petty is dead.

Correct. Yeah, I said on the show a couple of days ago that he was alive. Well, first you said he was dead. He was alive in 2014. First you said he was dead, then you said he was alive. I said, of course he's alive.

And then he was dead. Classic. Classic. Oh, course he's alive. And then he was dead. Classic. Classic. Oh, something that's happened to me is I've kind of been inundated by the algorithm. The algorithm wants me to watch Dancing with the Stars. And honestly, I'm feeling quite compelled. I've now seen everyone's performances in full. And I'm going to try my best to keep up.

And I just do want to say that, because I want to check back in a couple of weeks to see if I was right. I just do want to say that because I want to check back in a couple of weeks to see if I was right. My picks for winners in terms of celebrity, in terms of talent, in terms of fans, all encompassing, well-rounded, I'm going with Dwight Howard or Phaedra. I said Dwight Howard. Jackie, did you see his performance? No.

Let me tell you. I don't need to see. He has real. What about Pommel Horse Steveve you said that he was the one to watch that's what everybody says but um this is my opinion like oh okay but why like do you have something to say about like why it wouldn't be him do you think maybe just like he doesn't have the fans no i think like the the community wants him to win and he's like the obvious choice right now and they never choose the obvious choice first of all so that's that second of all um i

just i had really low like expectations in the actual gutter for Dwight Howard but he has moves like he has definitely has rhythm he has beat he was having so much fun he was I just like I his performance I was obsessed with really truly obsessed with um and then Phaedra like Phaedra is my queen so on a personal level I want her to win and then she really has the moves to back it up do you think Danny Amendola like stands a chance or like no actually I think the only chance he might have is like if Zandra's fans vote for him but she's not even like really publicly acknowledging him right okay so more than ever Danny needs Zandra yeah oh my god it's like grease danny and sand zandy little zandra don't i'm triggered um how are this actually feel like the stories are really good today i meant to yeah i meant to connect with you offline they're like they're really

solid and i would say they're all of equal import so it's like not breaking news and like for lesser stories i actually was at like seven whittle to five so there was there's a lot of interesting subject matter to discuss as the kids would say we're being fed we're being fed while we're sat we are sat on our hemorrhoid pillows and we are being fed and you know what I ate I just want to say this actually is not a hemorrhoid pillow I need to stop referring to it because I'm gonna get a reputation as being like a girl who has hemorrhoids not there's anything wrong with that I just don't have um It's a sciatica pillow. Oh, I have sciatica.

Let's see if it helps. Because like what I described, people have said like that sounds like sciatica. When I Google sciatica, that seems to be what it is. So let's see if it helps me. I just want to say I Google diagnosed myself too and I didn't get coccidinia. And then I went to a real doctor and got my diagnosis. But I saw a video about coccidinia I think because um it was like someone someone stitched

our episode where like a doctor or something a doctor and they were like coccidinia also known as tailbone pain and I just feel like that's really minimizing diminishing yeah you know like of course we all have pain like get over yeah I think I speak on behalf of the coccididia community when I say we're used to it. Like, we are used to this type of treatment, this type of belittlement. Is that a word? And not shocking, but hurtful nonetheless. Yeah, I was even hurt for you because I was like, wow, make it sound like nothing. Yeah, like, make it smaller. My thumb hurts.

You're right. My thumb does hurt. Although I want to say I feel move. I feel power coming back to my thumb. I feel like I'm getting a little bit more control. I think your thumb is taking power from your tailbone. I think the two are definitely working together to bring me back to life. The best version of myself. I think they're connected. Oh my God. You know what I'm doing tonight? No.

I'm choking. Sorry. I'm going to see my boyfriend. Maverick? So close. No, I'm going to see my boyfriend. Okay. My boyfriend is performing at Madison Square Garden

the physical therapist my boyfriend is performing at Madison Square Garden I mean your boyfriend used to be John Mayer I don't think that's who it is think outside the box a little bit I'm trying to think of who's performing at Madison Square Garden that's your boy and who is like you know my boyfriend my boyfriend who was on the podcast jet no your boyfriend who was on the podcast andy grammer no recently you weren't there jay shetty oh my god like sebastian you're supposed to know me better than anyone else sebastian maniscalco yeah i was really thinking a musical artist that's why I was stumped In the beginning I'm like who's your Musical artist boyfriend

He's kicking off Four nights at the garden I'm so proud of him And he invited me to come Oh he invited you I was gonna say like Did you buy a ticket No no

He invited me I'm gonna go say hi to him That's major Yeah yeah Just like big podcaster things You know Are you gonna bring Ben Or no cause it's your boyfriend

I am Because like Ben loves him Like that would be mean Understood That's cool I'm cooking steak tonight oh my god Ben cooked steak the other night steak is so good I've never made steak in my kitchen before like I've never cooked steak before that's not shocking it's like kind of an expert level cooking it is it is but we went to a steakhouse this weekend they had a kosher steak on the menu so I felt like I had to order it and I gobbled it down,

even though I'm not a big steak eater. Like it was so fantastic. So by the way, talk to Ben because Ben had a cooking lesson with Jeffrey's a carrion about steak. And ever since then he has made the most amazing steaks and Jeffrey really simplified it. Like it's not hard.

Interesting. And we use the new Caraway cast iron. It's the best thing to make steaks on. Do you have one? Yeah. Yeah. Interesting. Not an ad, just the truth.

Classic us. Being honest to a fault. Are we ready for these stories that we've spoken so highly of? I mean, you're never truly ready. You just kind of get thrown into it. It's very true. But I feel like now is as good a time as any. Sure, sure, sure.

To get into the fast five stories that you need to know okay actually one thing I forgot to say I went out to dinner last night and I was like using the ladies room and somebody opened the door on me and it was my fault like I thought I locked it but I didn't in the stall or it was like in a stall so it's like three stalls it wasn't exposing you to the restaurant no no but I've been there before. Where like the one stall bathroom is in the middle of the restaurant. The worst thing on the planet. No, I heard the girl next to me on the toilet. And then the girl who was trying to get into the stall opened the door on her.

And I was like, oh my God, moron, lock the door. Next thing I know, literally the door is open. We both didn't lock the door. And it's funny what sounds you make like naturally right I didn't know that she was gonna open the door on me so this was my natural reaction and like honestly I was horrified at the sound that came out of me oh oh oh like literally like dramatic older woman I believe that I think we have many clips of you making that sound on the show like when you get scared when like the UPS delivery man arrives literally and there's just kind of nothing

worse what do you think I think I always feel really awkward opening the door on other people but having the door opened on you is far worse no uh I think oh it's both really bad I couldn't say right depends on were you wearing a romper in which case like oh my god just go straight home thankfully I was wearing sweater and jeans like I was fully covered totally covered she should be embarrassed thousand percent no she's so aggressive she literally two people she walked in on in a matter of 10 seconds yeah no like it's a her problem the stall door is shut like you do open it with caution by the way yes because yes those those locks are a formality like it's not really they don't really keep people out no and I'm thinking when I went to the bathroom there were three stalls

two of the doors were closed and one of them was like a jar so I just went in that one I didn't even knock on the other two you really like you're so right you need to open with caution even if the if the door is closed yeah like take a peek through the side. You knock like, oh, Ella. Anyone? Yeah, that girl had no manners. Totally. It was her fault. Totally.

She should be ashamed. Not me for not locking the door. No, because like probably you both did lock the door, but the locks on those doors didn't work. Yeah, it's giving the locks problem, not mine. Yeah, those are fake locks. Like, you know, camp bathroom locks. Like it's totally. Yeah, not your fault forgive yourself

He has apologized for drunkenly tweeting that Kanye West is better than Taylor Swift.

So last night, Zach Bryan was on Twitter and he posted a tweet saying this. Eagles greater than Chiefs. Kanye greater than Taylor. And what was the third one? That was it. Oh, I thought. And then it was like, you know, it's true. Yeah.

He was like, what you guys think? Like, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like definitely drunk. He has since deleted that tweet. And then he posted. And he is spiraling on Instagram stories. He posted this on Instagram. He like shared the song Fortnite from TTBD and said,

for the record, guys, I wasn't coming for Taylor the other night. I was drunkenly comparing two records and it came out wrong. I know there's a lot of stuff that clouds around Ye and I was speaking purely musically. I love Taylor's music and pray you guys know I'm human and tweet stupid things often. Hope one day I can explain this to her. Twitter gets me in trouble too much and I'd say it's best I stay off it.

I'm sorry to any Taylor fans I pissed off or let down. Love you guys and I'm trying my best. No, no. He seriously then posted two more with different songs. The Albatross. Just being you guys, I'm not like backpedaling. I just really want you to know. I hope I can explain this to Taylor one day.

Like seriously having a meltdown. It's kind of the funniest thing ever. The thing is it's a bad tweet, right? Obviously like if we're comparing Kanye and Taylor, like what is so clearly better than the other as like overall musically he didn't say that in the tweet so it looked like just like he was taking Kanye's side in the beef that's really what it looked like and and then on top of that like Eagles greater than Chiefs now I don't have a stake in this game but like

statistically that's also incorrect right they literally played each other most recently and the Chiefs won so like it's incorrect on all fronts this isn't the first time that zach bryan has like made news with his tweets like he does need to listen and learn you know like really stop drinking and going on twitter i think a lot of us learn that early on when you get a platform now i'm not a big zach bryan fan but i'm not a zach bryan hater i think i'm more often than not like gonna like root for him root for him because I like his story I love that he dates an influencer and he's always out here defending that influencer that's like really all I know about him and and I know that like she gets so much hate because so many girls

are so fucking jealous of her and he is always like telling everyone to fuck all the way off like he rides for his girlfriend to me it's the most attractive quality in a man so this tweet was obviously a tough read I'm a Taylor Swirly I'm loving the spiraling on Instagram I do feel like he learned his lesson and that's all we can ask from people right yeah I'm rooting for him as well I do think at his level like drinking and tweeting is like it's gonna get him in trouble this isn't even like that bad it's just putting him in a really bad spot with like Swifties and then you know Taylor and I don't know if Taylor could forgive something like this but then I also think it's weird that he's like talking about the Chiefs and Taylor in the

same tweet it like it's giving like coming for Taylor's whole life yeah no it felt targeted it felt targeted period it didn't he said I'm comparing two records you weren't you literally weren't well it didn't appear to be about music at all he had been posting before that like a bunch of old Kanye songs. Like I think he was like just down a Kanye wormhole. That's fine. Like listening to the great hits, drinking. That's fine. And maybe he heard Fortnite in the background.

Brianna Chicken Fry is playing it. And he's like Kanye is greater than Taylor. The thing is is that I think anyone who was hoping for a Zach Bryan X Taylor Swift collab, like the dreams are gone. Although... Do you think Taylor could forgive this? Taylor is at a place where every time she's spotted with someone, there was like a couple like scenarios where every time she was spotted with someone, that person had an old tweet

about Taylor. But literally Brittany Mahomes had like old tweets about Taylor. I think it's sort of like when you're at the level that she's at, you can't be bogged down. The only thing is that this wasn't an old tweet. It was literally yesterday. I don't know if she was planning on collabing with Zach Bryan. I don't know.

But I feel like she's not going to. I don't think she's going to forgive this. Taylor can forgive, but the Kanye of it all, she can't. Yeah. It's her Roman Empire. But then also the chiefs of it is is weird like why you gotta bring that up the thing is is like i i do believe zach bryant's a talented musician and if you are a

talented musician you have to respect taylor swift i find that almost all of them do so i don't think he dislikes taylor swift i don't think he thinks she's untalented but i don't think his explanation for the tweet is valid like you weren't comparing records. It was clearly about Taylor because you put the Chiefs in there. So explain it. Explain it more. I don't get it. I do think it was about the music. Like in his drunken way.

And I felt like maybe he didn't think he needed to explain himself. I mean like, you know, you're not the most, the best judge when you're drunk. But then they also say like in wine there is truth. Right. Drunk thoughts. Drunk words. Sober thoughts. I do in wine there is truth. Right. Drunk thoughts. Drunk words. Sober thoughts. I do feel like he is sorry.

Not even because he's getting hate. But I think he's just sorry. Period. Like I think what's in his heart is good. But he stepped in it. And like for what? For nothing. Like.

I know. Like by the way. I can imagine. This is a lesson you have to learn the hard way. As like a person with a platform. And some people. Some musicians or like actors. Their relationship to social media is very different his like he enjoys it it's not something he feels like he has to do for work or the label part of his success like

that's how he met like most of his audience like found him because he does his own social media and he's like really like grassroots yeah so to now then hand it over to the label like would also be wrong no but he has to restructure his relationship with social media twitter specifically because he's at this level the alcohol just take the alcohol out of the relationship with social media i think that's a good rule for every person on earth agreed there comes a time in anyone's life whether you're a content creator, a musician, an actor who uses social media, where you realize, and for me, oddly enough, Chrissy Teigen taught me this lesson. You don't have to post, like every thought that you have doesn't need to be shared. Every experience you

have doesn't need to be shared. And ever since I really had that realization, I have like deleted countless Instagram stories just because they were like stupid, like who fucking cares? Having that realization is so healthy and I think it's so helpful. And maybe he hasn't had it yet. Maybe this is it. I don't think this is going to be it actually. Maybe. You know, I think it's going to get a little worse

before it gets better. Okay. I don't think this is going to have a major impact on his career. Not at all. He's so successful. His fans love him. I think it will just like, to have a major impact on his career. Not at all. So successful. His fans love him. I think it will just like it like now he's on Taylor's list.

Yeah. And that's not what you want to be. It's true. You want to be. She's powerful. And not that she'll go out of her way to hurt him, but she won't go out of her way to help him. Exactly.

And I'm sure like Brianna Chicken Fry is a Swifty and like this hurts her. And I'm thinking of her today. I actually feel like she's not a Swifty. Really? She's not. She's not. Why do you say that? Like she has, she has said she's not.

Yeah. She has like said that she's like, like she doesn't get the hype. Maybe Brianna tweeted it. So maybe it's like a home. Maybe it's a home full of Taylor haters. Oh, so then if she's not a Swifty, I don't think even if Taylor's like, you know, throwing darts at them every night,

like they don't care. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was more so concerned for her because I'm like, okay, so we're not performing together, revival backstage with Taylor. Yeah. And I was sad for her,

but if she doesn't even want that, then literally nobody cares and he's going to do it again. Yeah, he's going to do it again. It sounds like they don't give a rip, which is fine and very on brand for him. But the spiraling on Instagram stories does make me question. Yeah.

Maybe they're at the same label or something. Universal Studios. They're all the same to me. Like, I don't know. No, there's Big Machine, which is just country people. Yeah, it's Taylor's like Nemeses and Rascal Flatts. And Rascal Flatts is there so like I personally can't hate it that much I'm sorry no I I will I will have to support Bing

Machine it's like I just will I'm so sorry um there's Universal which is where Taylor went Columbia Republic which is Beyonce yeah that's like Jonas Brothers Republic Capital Capitol. Yeah, Island. Warner Brothers. Warner. The thing is, and this is what I saw. Cybo? When I saw the tweet, because people have like well thought out critiques of Taylor and her music, right? If you have like a respectful criticism, you're allowed to hold space for different opinions. But the fact that the person he was comparing it to was Kanye made it felt targeted.

Because if he had said like Sabrina. Or Springsteen. Right. Greater than. Or who does she get compared to? Like the Beatles. Sure. Someone at that level.

But her and Kanye are not on the same level. And they have completely like a big history. So it was. It was. He made a choice. He did. He made a choice. Having in awe.

But. Okay. I'm going to flatten. don't think you know what you're singing revival oh okay no not to make everything about me but uh Pete Alonzo went to the Zach Bryan concert and went on stage obviously for revival because he's like a New York hero and not to be Madison Beer but like me and Ben were supposed to go with him but like I had like an engagement party or something and like I would have been there like, oh, you know. Add it to the list of regrets. Yeah. Hope that's a good friend that you went to that party. Since we are sports cats, do you know about like this big thing happening in sports?

I mean, there's so many. Yeah, that was pretty big. The baseball one. Is it keeping up with sports? It's 50-50. Do you know what I'm talking about no so 50 50 is this um like baseball stat that nobody has ever hit it's actually somebody has it it's called the 50 50 club and this baseball player Shohei Otani who plays for the

Dodgers he's like probably gonna hit it and most, the only person who got even close was a 42-42, A-Rod. And it's 50 home runs and 50 steals in the same season, which is unheard of. Now, I think I saw an interview with Cho Hai. Well, do you know he got a 10-year, $700 million contract with the Dodgers? Damn. I mean, like that's who Zandra should be dating. 1,000%. Okay. So, oh, that's who Zandra should be dating. 1,000%. Okay. So, oh, nobody's ever done it.

The club won't exist until he creates it. No player has ever hit 50 home runs and stolen 50 bases in the same season. Putting the Dodgers started in uncharted territory, even if he doesn't record a 50-50 this season, it'll still be, like, the greatest ever. Well, did Babe Ruth do it? Oh, that's what the 40-40 club is. Oh no way like jay-z's bar yeah 40 club that's like what it is but now it's the 50 50 club because he's saying bar higher and a rod i guess one time beat the 40 40 club got it cool i'm like not really

into baseball no me neither yeah show how he's at 48 48 before that last year Ronald Acuna Jr. was 43 home runs in 73 stolen bases Alfonso Siriano 46 41 A-Rod 42 46 Barry Bonds 42 40 and Jose Canseco Josie's dad 42 40 Josie's dad but nobody's gotten 50 50 sometimes's dad. But nobody's gotten 50, 50. Sometimes people have done like really good in one category and not the other. But you wouldn't. So that's what's going on in baseball. And he's so cute. Have you seen a picture of him?

I have. Rooting for show high. No, I love him. He's so cute. That's really cute. Rooting for show high. I wonder what his personal life is like. I feel like baseball players like are the least thirsty.

Yeah, they're very busy with baseball yeah like we don't know a lot about them he's 30 years old oh my god his birthday he was born same year five days before me oh my gosh I felt like a I knew I felt a connection to to show tag he's uh July 5th 1994 wow he's six four okay Zandra that was the other thing Zandra that was the other thing I wanted to say about Dwight Howard is when you're that tall like you really don't have the ability to be coordinated yeah it's just you can't be good at everything and like sometimes the time it takes your brain to tell your foot to move like the show's over yeah so I was really surprised at his coordination too because he's a giant.

Proud of him. Like he has my whole support. I kind of love him. Rooting for Dwight. And show high. And of course. And someone else that I'm rooting for is our next story. One of my queens.

It's actually a sad story, sort of. Hayden Panettiere is sparked in concern with an uncomfortable and sad interview. So Hayden Panettiere gave a sit-downdown interview to people magazine a heartfelt interview in which she spoke about vulnerable topics like her brother's death and her daughter but her demeanor in the clips has sparked some serious concern among fans so people posted one video of hayden talking i mean hayden hayden hayden talking about her daughter Just telling a story about how her daughter's like really similar to her. And something is going on with Hayden in the clip. So a little backstory for those who don't know.

Like after Hayden Panettiere gave birth, her whole world kind of fell apart. She had a very, very severe case of postpartum depression. So much so to the point that her child ended up in full custody of her father, the child's father. And they actually live in another country. I actually believe they live in Germany. They kind of wanted nothing to do with Hollywood or anything. And she got treatment for her postpartum for years, like probably one of the most severe cases. And then she struggled with addiction and then she suffered personal loss. And like a year ago, she did this big interview with People Magazine as like, I'm back. Like I am finally through this journey of sobriety, of my postpartum. Like she had been through intense therapy, intense recovery. And it was like, she was out on the other side and

she had this short haircut and she was talking about her daughter for the first time. How like, yeah, it's obviously unconventional that the daughter lives with her father, but like she is like completely unable to be a parent. And she made the very, really selfless decision to let her, her kid's father be the full-time parent. And it was kind of a beautiful moment. And I think people really struggled to understand her until that. And then after that video, her brother passed away. And it's clear that she has not recovered from that and perhaps slipped back into some bad habits because of that grief. And while none of that is like crazy news, the fact that this interview aired, I do, at what point does a tabloid or any media outlet, like at what point do they stop? Like you watch this video you're like how many people

actually sat in the room for this interview yeah didn't stop it edited this interview and aired it stop it published this interview and the comments I'm so I was reading the comments and everybody was like are you guys kidding me like delete this yeah they're like take this down please have some respect and compassion you and someone else you really didn't need to post this and do further harm this is just sad because, so the video, what she's saying. She's not speaking anything crazy. No, she's not speaking anything crazy.

Like she makes a lot of sense and she's saying like really beautiful, like vulnerable things. But like her speech is slurred. Her eyes seem very heavy. So I think people jump to the conclusion that like she is drunk. But this happens a lot.

Like with, remember we talked about with like Jessica Simpson, Rachel Ray. This is the most severe this happens a lot. Like with. Remember we talked about it with like Jessica Simpson. Rachel Ray. This is the most severe. Yes. I've ever seen. This is not like Rachel Ray. Also Buko. No.

Like Rachel doing her thing. Tony Danza in her kitchen. Yeah. Not at all. No. This was like truly sad and hard to watch. And not something where like with Rachel Ray. Like I don't think anybody needed to pull the inner.

I think Rach. Rach was being Rach. And the thing is. Is like with Rachel Ray and Jessica Simpson.'t think anybody needed to pull the inner. I think Rach was being Rach. And the thing is, is like with Rachel Ray and Jessica Simpson, those are all videos that they put out on their channels. They had kind of had consent. When you're in that state of mind. No, they definitely, People Magazine like had consent. She sat down for the interview.

Like she wanted to do this, but like at a certain point, like it's on them to be like, this feels wrong. It's heartbreaking. It's one of the saddest videos I've ever watched. And she's talking about how she will never, ever, ever, ever, ever recover from the loss of her brother. So she's like talking about this thing that broke her. It's my first thought when I watched it was like shame on People Magazine.

And then I opened the comments and everybody was saying the same sort of thing. And I'm glad that we all have the same reaction. But like at what point do we like punish like these outlets it's so exploitive and people magazine like I feel like at one point in time was one of those like dirty tabloids airport tablets but they've really um like stepped up their pussy in recent years and separated themselves from like the us magazines and okay they're like supposed to be they don't do tabloid gossip they do like sit down interviews and then they just like write up uh human interest stories and celebrity news stories but they're not like so and so is spotted here and there right uh also then i saw that first clip that we had sent each other when she's talking

about her daughter like she's speaking in the video the entire time we're watching her and then i saw another clip where she's talking about her brother and i feel like they re-edited it so that it wasn't as quote-unquote explo. Like the first 10 seconds of her talking, she's just talking over a picture of her and her brother. And then it switches to another picture of her and her brother. And then it goes to her talking. But I think they chose a moment where like she sounds better. So maybe they're trying to make it work.

But I just, it's very upsetting. No, Hayden Panettiere is, like in terms of my age, like she was an important person in my life growing up. Like when I think of her breadth of work, like Raising Helen. Nashville. Bring it on. But I'm talking about like her child star work

because she was a child star. And I think that this is sort of a cautionary tale for child stars. She's like an example of how it can go poorly. And she's had a lot of like bad public moments in the last like decade or so. And I just really, she means a lot to me because her work sort of raised, her work raised me and I love her and I feel so sad. And I think that this is really the, the worst way that like, you know, fame can go. Child star fame can end up.

And I just, I feel an overwhelming sense of sadness. And I think a lot of people do. That's why people were so fiercely defensive of her in the comments. Because you don't see that a lot. You know, people rallying for a celebrity. But it was so exploitative that it was heartbreaking. Especially because I love her love her so much she is such a queen and she literally worked so hard as a kid for us yeah rooting for her constantly constantly and just I hope she can find her way through

and like who is managing and who's your publicist like because those aren't people everyone should be fired anybody who let you sit down for this interview an assistant well an assistant can't like tell you what to do a manager an agent anyone a publicist anyone who had anything to do with this shame on you yeah oh I'm sick yeah are you ready for our next story yeah a curious little story looking forward to your thoughts okay oprah winfrey bought back the rights to an apple documentary about her to stop its release queen shit oprah winfrey paid a fortune to apple tv chiefs to buy back the rights to a documentary about her life apple announced back yeah apple announced with great fanfare in 2021 that Oscar-winning filmmaker Kevin McDonald

would be directing the documentary about Oprah. However, sources tell Page Six that the filmmaker who teamed up with Winfrey's longtime producer on the project had clashed with Oprah after he finished the film and it's been on hold ever since. So a well-placed Hollywood source told Page Six, Kevin made the film, but Oprah didn't like it

and he refused to change it and Oprah has paid back her fee to Apple. A spokesperson for Oprah, A Placed Hollywood source told Page Six, Kevin made the film, but Oprah didn't like it and he refused to change it. And Oprah has paid back her fee to Apple. A spokesperson for Oprah, who ended her content deal with Apple in September 2022, confirms to Page Six, quote, As the Apple TV deal was coming to an end, Ms. Winfrey bought back the rights to her docuseries and has since decided to put the dock on hold. Ms. Winfrey believes that her personal filmmaker, Lisa, the one that she works with, who I think is like Team Oprah, Lisa, Ernst Palmer, and Kevin MacDonald are incredibly talented filmmakers and is grateful for the time and energy they put into the project. A source in Oprah's camp insists Kevin MacDonald did not refuse to make edits that Winfrey simply decided, quote, it wasn't the right time to do a documentary before making the unusual move of

buying it back. I could see, you know, this going, like everyone has their own truth. So I could see it being nefarious. I could see it. She just doesn't want to release a documentary and she's fucking Oprah. And like this money to her is like $100 to a normal person. Like I could see, I don't know which is the right,

what actually happened. I don't know what the truth is, but goals. Like to be able to, like you're Oprah, over you are so wealthy you can't be shoved into doing anything you don't want to do and you have the privilege of changing your mind too because what if she did just change her mind like everybody knows a lot about me what do I need to give them more you know let me protect my peace a little bit you don't think that thought would come like before she sat for the documentary but I'm saying she changed her mind right so you think it's just as innocuous as that I don't know I'm saying it could have been it could be something nefarious like he

insinuated there's so many conspiracy theories about Oprah when I feel like at the end of the day she's just a queen who needs to be left alone I feel like they're all untrue but when you get to that level of billionaire status and you hang out with the people that you do the conspiracies come with the territory like you just become a billionaire and people start thinking things about you it is what it is um I believe that Oprah is a wholesome queen I really do I don't believe any of the shit that they're saying about my queen and I love this like she's so real for that like oh I'm in a contract I don't want to be in a normal person like it ruins their life yeah they can't even imagine of paying the the breach of contract fine Oprah pennies on the dollar. I don't know what the truth is. Okay big Oprah.

Yeah oh I'm being paid by big Oprah. No I ever since blame shame in the weight loss game like they couldn't make me ever hate Oprah. Yeah I understand that. I definitely think there's a little more to the story like the obviously the documentary is unflattering like now I need to know what's in there um but we never will because she has that sort of power. And that's nice. Yeah, it's not as like, you know, perfect as they're saying. I don't feel like it anymore. Of course. There's probably something more going on here.

I actually think it is the perfect time for an Oprah documentary. Like she's 70 years old. Like there's a lot of story to tell. She would go on the press. And she's still around to tell us more. Like it would be actually a great documentary yeah and if it was the right time two years ago when she sat for it like it's certainly the right time now I just think you know maybe Kevin painted her in a light she didn't like right what light and how nice that you are able to even though I can't imagine Oprah getting herself into a scenario, she has a production company,

she has unlimited means, so if she wanted a documentary made about herself, I can't imagine that it would end up unflattering. Like, that's so not believable. Do you know what I mean? You have all this power, and you're not just like a random celebrity, you're a billionaire from your productions.

Like, you have a production company, Harpo. So I think that the documentary is is probably like mostly like in partnership and flattering but like this guy who came in as a filmmaker at the end of the day like it's his job to tell the story right I think like documentarians take that really seriously like they're not there it's not a puff piece like I want to leave you with like a question no they're gonna like find what the story is they they're like journalists in that sense that's probably how they see themselves. So it's not like, oh, I'm just doing this as a favor to Oprah.

And like, it's going to be like shame, blame and the weight loss game with Oprah. Like, what do I find? I'm going to tell that story. So maybe like that's what was made. That's not what she had in mind. And it's a no go. It's just boss behavior. And I just want to say, like like I have no idea what he could have

found what could be right and maybe just like her personality came off bad maybe she looked mean like right that could be something as simple as that or it could also be you know Epstein Island right when you're a celebrity like and everybody's crawling up your ass you do lose that like sense of self-awareness like am I coming off poorly and maybe she saw herself like just in a personality level in a light that she didn herself like just in a personality level in a light that she didn't like. Yeah. And it's just like incongruous.

Because she is America's sweetheart. She's like the sweet older lady. Yeah. Well, that's actually a perfect segue to our next story. What number though?

Oh, yeah, I got kicked out of show business. And so it goes. So she goes on to discuss being labeled, quote, the be kind girl that wasn't kind. She said, here's the problem. I'm a comedian who got a talk show and I ended the show every day by saying be kind girl that wasn't kind she said here's the problem i'm a comedian who got a talk show and i ended the show every day by saying be kind to one another had i ended my show by saying go fuck yourselves people would have been pleasantly surprised to find out i'm kind that's funny but like yeah you did say be kind every single day you told us to be kind while

you weren't being kind like that's a problem yep I this is where being a comedian is so fabulous right because it gives you a one like a creative outlet but two like an opportunity to just like laugh with everyone instead of like being laughed at and so I don't know what the right way to come back from scandal is but as a comedian I think this is a really good one well this is also not really a comeback as far as what she said. Like this is a burn it all down show. She said it's her last thing. I do think she wants the last word

because right now what's the way it all ended was like Ellen was booted out of show business, not Hollywood because like she doesn't need money. She has all the friends. She has all the connections. Like I'm sure she could even do like produce, like, but people didn't want to see her anymore. So everybody's going to want to see this.

I feel like whatever she has to say, she's going to say it all. And that we said when we were talking about the special to begin with, like someone who has nothing to lose is just like a very interesting person to hear from. Now I'm sad on September 24th. Yeah. I'm actually really looking forward to this. And I'm so curious what her sort of explanation is it gonna be is it gonna be like everybody lied I'm not mean or yeah I mean everybody I worked with was stupid sue me like because you said it's a

very burn it all down last you'll ever hear from me so she doesn't have to back up anything that she's saying she can like kind of lean in yeah or be like is she gonna paint herself as a victim or yeah like that was me and you know eat my is she going to paint herself as a victim? Or yeah, like that was me and you know, eat my ass. I think not paint herself as a victim, but definitely paint it as it like being overblown and like she was just having like normal human behaviors and reactions.

While also trying to put forth a positive message. I don't know. I think she's going to try and like make us feel stupid. No, I'm like really excited to see what she does with this because it definitely has the potential to be like iconic and historic. If this is really your last way of going out, everybody thinks all these things about you. Are you going to come out and be like a weenie? Like, no, they were mean to me. Or are you going to be like, yeah, that was me. Suck it. Yeah. Like it reminds me of Erika

Jayne's tagline from Beverly Hills. I have nothing to hide and nothing to lose. And that makes me dangerous. Yeah. Like a scary thing, right? Yeah. Ellen will never run out of money. She is, tagline from Beverly Hills I have nothing to hide and nothing to lose and that makes me dangerous yeah like a scary thing right yeah Ellen will never run out of money she is you know generationally wealthy for life she has unlimited connections within Hollywood people within Hollywood still like her so what she can't you know sell tickets to a show she doesn't want to anymore so if she did want to just burn it all down, that's iconic. Yeah. Then there's another quote from the trailer that's giving just like a little bit, I don't know, you'll judge it for yourself.

She said, she talks about how most women aren't raised with confidence. She says, quote, we're too self-conscious, which is why you rarely see a woman playing the air guitar. She also shares that rather than going into show business for money, she said it was about healing my childhood wounds. I thought if I can make people happy, then they'll like me. And if they like me, I'll feel good about myself. And all I can say about that is thank God for the money.

So like, you know, a little bit like, I don't know about like, so I want to know. Yeah, it's like, don't bring women. Like women is like, I want to be like the childhood trauma of not being like, it's like, I'm sorry. That's no excuse. You're literally 70. I'm no longer sad.

I'm getting up. Yeah. And one of my actual least favorite things is when people in their grown adult lives, like act poorly and blame it on the way that they grew up. And it's like, we all have things from our childhood and you being an animal and a bitch because of it like it's not an excuse you get to a certain point where it is on you to be fair to heal from that and she's literally i don't think that's what

she's i don't think that's what she's doing there i think she's just like telling the story of like how she got into show business i think she's trying to relate to women on like a level of like confidence and this and that but like ellen you're not relatable like just oh and by the way that's what her last special was all about I think it was literally called relatable she's like oh when I get off my gold toilet in the morning and my servant brings me my coffee it was funny like it was how she's so wealthy she's lost all relatability so to now her next special try to attempt to be relatable it's like yikes and who knows like which part of this trailer like she'll really dig in on right maybe we'll hear funny anecdotes about her chickens I hope not I do hope it's more of the kicked out of show business stuff um but maybe someone at you know iMovie thought that this would be a good part of the trailer yeah well we need to see it talk

about women struggling with self-confidence like I love hearing about women and how we can get confident um from just like other people yeah for sure like from you I love hearing about women and how we can get confident from just, like, other people. Yeah, for sure. Like, from you. I love hearing about confidence from you. I would actually take confidence tips from you. That's so sweet. Yeah.

If anybody's looking for tangible tips on confidence, just, like, be delusional. Fake it till you make it. No one can tell me shit, like, in my head. But in my head, I'm like, oh, my God, I'm, like like the biggest loser on the planet you know but i'm so sickeningly gorgeous yeah so that's september 24th ellen a little i'm sad oh speak of big things coming out you know at midnight tonight katie perry's album drops oh my gosh i will be listening in the morning as a lie i'll listen while I get ready tomorrow morning and I'll let you know my initial thoughts.

Me as well. Even though I know none of you are asking for them. Not a single one. But I just know like it's something that we need to do. We're on a journey and we need to see it through. Yep. Our fifth and final story is a little more content news because SNL has announced their season 50 hosts and musical guests.

So they have put out the next five weeks of hosts and musical guests. And if you care about these things, here they are. September 28th, Jean Smart and Jelly Roll. I saw the funniest tweet. It was like, please don't make Jean Smart say, once again, roll however she will have to i love by that i love her like she's like snl is not funny and like it's really it's bad but sometimes a host can transcend that like and she's really talented. Yeah. She has a chance to transcend for sure.

Yeah. SNL is just like really, really bad. So here's a bunch of like. It's such a shame because this lineup is so premium. Yeah. If it were a good show, like, wow, I'm sat on a Saturday night. I know. But no, I might not.

I probably won't watch any of these. Maybe some clips if you guys really insist. October 5th, Nate Bargatze and Coldplay. That's actually really interesting because it was such a big deal when Nate Bargatze was on last season because he was like kind of an internet comedian podcaster. And it obviously did well. Yeah. Because he's back the next season.

October 12th, Ariana Grande hosting Stevie Nicks musical guest. That's definitely confusing. I actually would have thought the opposite. And like, I think Ari should be doing both. Like I think there's only a few people who can do both. And Ari is one of them. If you're a musician who's hosting and you're not performing,

it's definitely like raises a red flag. And I feel like it goes back to what I was saying earlier in the week, where it's like, she's on her Lady Gaga shit. She's kind of leaving the pop world behind. Sorry, I'm in an Oscar winning movie. Like,

don't talk to me. It hasn't even come out and it's won an Oscar. I'm an actress now. I won't be singing. Don't get it twisted. Correct. Even though I'm singing

in the movie that I'm Unless you want me to sing in the movie. Yeah, she is singing in the movie. Right. I wish she was doing both because it's such a flex.

No, it would have been amazing if Ariana Grande was the host and then Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo were the musical guests. That would have been a great promo for the film. And then Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo Were the musical guests that would have been great promo For the film oh I guess by the time October 12th like we're getting close to Wicked coming

Out but it's still a little early Yeah October 19th Michael Keaton and Billie Eilish Must miss it's gonna be super fun And cheery November 2nd John Mulaney and Chapel Roan so there it is Chapel Roan's SNL debut that'll

be a big night for Miss Chap that will officially I think mark her stardom like obviously she's huge yada yada but SNL is and I want to say it really is such a shame that it's such a piece of shit show because the booker at SNL, like, works overtime. The booker always crushes it. Like, premium talent for what? Right. Right. It's honestly, it's Nina Katz.

If you know, you know. It's what? Nina Katz. Is that from Sex and the City? Nina. Yes. When Carrie finds out that Aiden has a new girlfriend, it's Nina Katz.

And then she makes the face. And she's the booker for SNL. Got it. Got it. Well, no, the booker is booking. The booker is booking. Honestly, it's like Colin Jost. I guess we've got to put it on because the show is bad. And he's like, takes a big credit for the show.

Yeah. And everyone else too. But like, I don't know. I just feel like he makes it like a really big stink that he like writes the show they did a big chop they got rid of a bunch of people which I think was the right choice they onboarded a bunch of new people in the last couple of years and they never took off like obviously Chloe Fineman like was new and and instantly became Bowen Yang was new and instantly became it takes like a year or two for you to take off but then if you don't you're just kind of like I know but sometimes they just need but they do need

people who like can play a lot of characters that like not everyone's gonna be Kate McKinnon but like yeah they need background actors up too yeah but they brought on three new people so that'll be interesting to see I feel like the most recent person who like joined and had a moment is Sarah Sherman she was in that bat mitzvah movie with Adam Sandler. I actually like her. I don't think you do, but yeah. Oh, fuck. I don't think you do. I don't.

I don't think so. I'll have to double check. Oh, shit. It's giving. I don't think you do. Shit. Yeah, I'm sorry. All right.

No, it's okay. It happens to the best of us. It happens every day. It does. Was that the fifth story? That was the fifth story. Oh, my God. What what are you gonna have for lunch oh such a great question i have some fresh sourdough like not to brag so i'll probably just

have a slice maybe a hard boiled egg on top that was that actually was like extremely braggadocious of you well i think you'll be having fresh sourdough soon i think fresh sourdough in your future oh well you never gave me your starter no i just meant like when I come see you I'm gonna bring you a loaf oh you are bring me some starter too I'll bring you some starter like whatever I want to have it just in case I feel you shouldn't make Ben get into it I don't think it's for you like I think it's for Ben like Ben is the he's in the kitchen so he's the one who needs to be reminded to feed it every day yeah I think it's for Ben and like it would be great for Slender September and all of his content and like everything pairs nicely with a fresh slice of bread yeah yeah oh I can't believe you're bringing me a loaf I'm so excited I was like what
