Starting point is 00:00:00 Good morning, Millennials! Welcome back to The Toast and happy Thursday! Hope everyone's having a great day. Speaking of greatness, let me introduce you to the greatest mom, podcast host, sister, friend, Jacqui. Hey Jax, how you doing? This is so sweet of you to say, McClure. To what do I owe the pleasure? What do you want? What do you want?
Starting point is 00:00:25 What do you need? Nothing. I just wanted to express gratitude. Maybe it's because I'm coming off of like kind of my Barbara Walters moment yesterday. Right. With someone who's very into, you know, the positivity and like energy space. And my interview with our guest yesterday like definitely changed my life. And my interview with our guest yesterday, like, definitely changed my life.
Starting point is 00:00:55 And if this is what we have in return for your interview, just like this positive heaping praise upon others, Claude, like, you should do it every day. 100%. I feel so annoying. Like, I hate to be. I mean, we're going to this interview. I'm counting you guys to that. But, and I tried to get the episode to release early, but it has to release at the end of the month. So I'm just going to keep talking about it.
Starting point is 00:01:10 But we'll tell you guys soon. I have another interview today with someone really fun and exciting. Like yesterday's was kind of serious, very like, you know, mental health oriented. And today's is going to be like fun and fresh. But yeah, that's kind of like why I'm feeling stunning. Why are you feeling stunning? I'm feeling stunning because you just you know talked me up and that was really inspiring for me and it's been a very good productive morning over here we have a great day full of stories it's actually our last
Starting point is 00:01:37 show of the week which is always bittersweet bitter because I'm gonna miss you I'm going to miss you. I'm going to miss the toaster. Sweet because, well, everything else. Everything else. But it's good to wrap up the week, get through the stories. Claudia texted me this morning begging. I didn't beg. On her hands and knees. I didn't beg. For us to talk about Harry.
Starting point is 00:02:03 Prince Harry. Sorry. Prince Harry Windsor. It's confusing with my son. It is. Because I don't have to beg to talk about the real Prince Harry. I didn't beg. That's what screenshots are for.
Starting point is 00:02:14 I said, I think we can do a story today about Harry. Because as much as I've tried to avoid it, and I do feel good. I was getting so fatigued. There is so much to discuss. We can discuss it it I didn't want to like talk about it and my energy just to be like so like not even like so dismissive of it you know because I'm so over it yeah that's not productive podcasting no and it's not fun like when I'm like I hate you bye you know yeah yeah that's not a conversation. So we are going to talk a little bit about it today.
Starting point is 00:02:59 He's really just, my God, any shred of dignity or respect or like regalness that he had in my eyes is completely gone. No, he is a commoner through and through. But actually, it's an insult to commoners because I do not think most commoners would do what he's doing in so many different ways, like airing the family drama, like people's personal secrets, people's private conversations. And it's like, for what? For what? So we'll get into all of that.
Starting point is 00:03:21 Before we do, this being our last show of the week, we have to catch up with our LA correspondent. We do. How is the West Coast treating you? Would you say it's the best coast? I definitely would not say that. And I think people who say that are deeply unwell. It's a decent coast, you know?
Starting point is 00:03:37 That's what I would say. Do you think the East Coast is the best coast? 100%. Well, I think if we're comparing all coasts, probably the Amalfi coast is the best one amalfi coast greater than west coast yes but if we're keeping it national no i'm definitely an east coast girl the sun finally came out it stopped raining which has been nice um and last night i've been just like you know trying to be productive while i'm here be social
Starting point is 00:04:00 see people but last night i stayed in and i actually watched a TV show that I've never seen that people are obsessed with that I actually think you would love. Because when we were talking yesterday about how you want to start watching Abbott Elementary for these reasons, I also, when I was watching the show last night, I was like, this could be a content upper for Jackie.
Starting point is 00:04:17 Can I guess what it is? Yeah. Ginny in Georgia? No. Okay. I give up. No. It is The Mindy Project.
Starting point is 00:04:29 I feel like it's a show that has this cult following. I'm always seeing edits on TikTok. I've never seen one shred of it. Ben's sister loves it. So when we, my TV has Netflix at the hotel, praise be, like all hotels should have Netflix. And I was just looking for something mindless to watch and like something good. And me and Ben watched like 10 episodes last night it's so good the writing is so funny and I'm kind of just like in my Mindy Kaling era recently
Starting point is 00:04:52 and that reminds me I have this like running list of like dream toast guests and outside of the obvious ones like Taylor and Kim you know um Taylor and Kim together iconic so I'm gonna add Mindy Kaling to that because she is kind of everything yeah that's very good maybe next time I hear my list maybe next time with a little more notice you could get her in LA maybe yeah okay let me hear the list Kiki Palmer okay RuPaul okay Kelly Clarkson. Of course. Kim, Chloe, Taylor, them, and now Mindy Kaling. It's a short list. It's a short list. Yeah, no, because this is like highest hopes, ideal, like random.
Starting point is 00:05:37 Is that just your list? Like should I be making my own list? Would you like to partner on a list? Yeah, we could do a collab list but usually I house all the lists so this is gonna be hard for me to relinquish control I feel like I should house it because then that way you could just like spew it and I'll write it down no and my phone just fell on the floor so I'm not bending down to pick it up feel free to make your own list you could like notes allows you to collab with others on notes. I know. But my my list of ideal guests isn't just that.
Starting point is 00:06:09 I use like notes for multiple things. Like underneath it is this list that I have for a sports event. We're coming up. And then I think underneath it is like some questions I had for the guest yesterday. Like I use multiple notes. I don't like to waste paper. Oh, I use a fresh note for everything. OK, I'm trying to remember your list and then I will just add on to it.
Starting point is 00:06:25 I'm honestly not even adding like Kim and Taylor, like duh. Right. You know, this is like people who I always forget that I'm obsessed with. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:34 Okay. So I'm going to add, it was Josh Palmer, Kiki Palmer, RuPaul, Kelly Clarkson, Mindy Kaling, Kim Taylor.
Starting point is 00:06:41 Yes. Um, Josh Groban is a dream guest of mine um Guy Fieri I would love to chat with him and pick his brain yeah yes Elon dream guest and possible because he podcasts he does podcast a lot of people thought when I was referencing um the the guest yesterday I posted a TikTok that I just recorded this amazing interview with someone, you know, who's really impressive and who you wouldn't expect to come on the toast.
Starting point is 00:07:08 And it was a man. And the number one guest was Elon Musk. And I love that people have that much faith in us. Like, don't get me wrong. The toast is literally huge, but like we're not that huge, you know? Yeah, but like, even though Elon is by far the biggest person on this list,
Starting point is 00:07:21 I actually think he's the person with the biggest chance we could actually get him on because he goes on podcasts. He's like a man of the people. And we are a show of the people. And it's really important that people don't forget. And I'm including myself because I'm constantly forgetting that I actually met Elon Musk and he told me he liked my blog like five years ago. So like there's a connection there. So you should get on your blog and do a call out to Elon because he obviously checks it every day. Checks it daily. Like he definitely checks it daily.
Starting point is 00:07:55 And I definitely could use my platform for good. You could. And you should. You could. And I will. Anyone else? Shall we continue on the list? Anyone else? I would have on the list? Anyone else?
Starting point is 00:08:07 I would have loved to have Queen Elizabeth II rip. Did she ever do any podcasts before her passing? No. She did a lot of radio. Classy queen. The same, but different. We could have lied and said we have a big American radio show. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:24 I don't think she wants to be on big American radio, though. No, definitely not. She's probably like. Missed opportunity. Sure. That's what you would say. I also feel like Kiki Palmer coming on the toast, like, now that she's pregnant. Like, I feel like she would do it.
Starting point is 00:08:40 Like, we're kind of like a mom podcast. Kiki Palmer would be a great guest. And she's so toasty and we're so kiki like that honestly we should just get the wheels turning on that yeah I think so too and I think we would like like to see Kiki Palmer in real life in action would be probably one of the greatest joys of my life like I don't think there's a person on the planet who is naturally more funny than Kiki Palmer I know but she's not even trying but it would also be a hard interview for you because like you'd really have to just not talk so much because we're just like listening and observing. Okay.
Starting point is 00:09:10 So I actually was going to say I actually think it would be easy for me because I would not want to talk like I would actually just want to listen. It's like I'm watching a movie. Okay. And you think that you could do it? Yeah. Okay. That's beautiful. You should have seen me yesterday during this interview
Starting point is 00:09:25 so quiet like I was trying my absolute hardest not to like jump in you know good that's that's hard for me but you also like it's hard for me there it's just it's a dance like I feel like people always like to complain about other podcasts not ours that like that person was talking over the guest a lot you know what I mean and it's like yeah that is annoying when people do that but you also have to keep the conversation going so it's right it's like yeah that is annoying when people do that but you also have to keep the conversation going so it's right it's a line that you have to walk because especially with podcast interviews they're interviews but they're they're more so conversations and conversation requires two people yeah it's not just a one-way street right that's why we love
Starting point is 00:10:00 conversation I love conversation especially when I'm the one bulldozing it. Okay. We'll keep this list open as we talk about people, like we'll talk about whether or not they deserve to be on this list. No. And you know what? If somebody steps out of bounds or acts, you know, like a fool, they might be removed from the list. So true. And that would be devastating for them. Like everything changes when you're removed from the list so we're keeping Hollywood in check with our list we're always keeping Hollywood in check we're just like these watchdogs we're these like checkers checkers because you want to know why Hollywood is playing chess and we're playing checkers and that's embarrassing for us yeah that means we're dumb and stupid yeah and simple-minded
Starting point is 00:10:45 simple-minded oh my god also so yesterday after my interview i went to the good influences podcast podcast hosted by like carly erin matt king and mike um and i just liked their podcast and i was really excited to do it and we had like a really great conversation and i was referencing katie from sex and the City like simple girls versus like crazy girls and how I'm not you know I'm a Katie and when I tell you not one person knew the reference and that was like the first time in recent memory I've actually felt like embarrassed I'm like really sad I wasn't expecting a sad tale from like your time on the Good Influences podcast I thought you're gonna talk about like what great time you have which i'm sure you did which i'm sure you did but you just like have to tell us
Starting point is 00:11:28 about the one awkward moment no it was great and then like i'm just so used to talking to you who knows every single movie tv show book reference that i'm gonna spew on this show so i didn't i didn't even say with explanation i just said it like assuming everybody would know what it's talking about i was like i'm like katie with curly hair and they're like Claudia are you okay they're like this girl's having a seizure developed a stutter I'm like you guys don't know Katie with the curly hair they're like what I thought for sure Carly and Aaron would know but not like Matt and Mike nobody knew what I was talking about and then I really realized how like what we do is so insular yeah it is it must be hard to like go out into the real world you know you're like someone who's been homeschooled and now
Starting point is 00:12:09 you're going to North Shore High School with Regina George I'm literally Jacob Tremblay you're Katie Heron I'm Katie Heron yeah yeah I wouldn't say you're Jacob Tremblay in room like that's extremely extreme. Oh, have I not made that abundantly clear to you? Like, I'm the most extreme in the world. Like, that's so me. That's so you. I guess that makes me Brie Larson.
Starting point is 00:12:37 Um, I guess. In Room. No, I know, but I guess, actually, I would be Brie Larson in Room because, like, she's extreme at the end, you know, like she can't handle it. No, but I feel like I feel like you'll adapt better out in the world. I just want to say, I think actually I do agree with that. But the way I've seen Room once and I find myself applying Room to everyday life like that movie. Do other people like regard that movie as much as we do? Like, I think it's like literally the most important piece of art that's ever come out of hollywood yeah it was
Starting point is 00:13:10 fucking crazy you only need to see it once anyone who watches it more than once is like twisted problematic like watches it for actual entertainment for pleasure oh sick Well we have an amazing show Anything else you want to catch up on Like have you driven anywhere recently That you want to talk about No actually Oh but I guess I'll use this time to make a PSA Because I went to the doctor yesterday
Starting point is 00:13:35 I went to the dermatologist Just to get a full body check All's well So smart But just wanted to use it as a reminder For everyone else Because honestly like It took for me like a few celebs

We podcasted from Olivia's car. It wasn't moving. We just like couldn't get suburban life. It was really fun. We podcasted from Olivia's car. It wasn't moving. We just like couldn't get to a quiet place in her house. And it was really funny.

And then I could have eaten it during the ad and no one could complain because I would be doing like product placement. Because you were doing your job. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:51 Right. Our first story, Prince Harold Harry Windsor. He's been unchinaed temporarily. Making audiences around the world cringe with some of the excerpts from his novel, including one bit that is particularly harrowing when you listen as an audio book. So I told you like him reading it as an audio book. I've seen so many clips online is another level of like invasiveness in my mind.
Starting point is 00:18:19 It's so bizarre. It's so bizarre. And I also feel like he definitely wrote this book. He worked with a co-author. Um, but I could see if you know if he never read the whole finished book you know he like gave his stories then they worked on specific passages together and then the co-author put it all together and like it's possible he didn't read everything um but he read the audiobook which means he read the whole last book and he decided to leave this part in so uh audiobook listeners are left feeling horrified as prince harry says he felt like his
Starting point is 00:18:50 mother was right there in the room as he applied the elizabeth arden cream she loved to his fraught spit and penis prince harry has left readers wincing with his account of applying elizabeth arden cream used by his late mother to his frostbitten penis. In the passage, he recalls that his late mother, Princess Diana, used to apply the cream to her lips, he says, quote, to her lips, and says the smell of the product made him feel like his mother was right there in the room before he applied the cream to his penis. He recounts how a friend recommended he use the product on the injured area after he returned from a trip to the North Pole before Prince William's wedding. This is when he tells us he had a frostbitten penis from the trip that he had at Willie's
Starting point is 00:19:28 wedding. His frostbitten Willie for Willie's wedding. And a friend suggested Elizabeth Arden cream for his nether region. Then he says, that's the cream my mom used. He cracks it open. I'm sorry, that's the cream my mom used on her lips. He cracks it open. She's in there with in the room with him used on her lips he cracks it open she's in there with
Starting point is 00:19:45 in the room with him with the smell and he applies it to his penis people are calling the book a quote freudian nightmare you know it's definitely giving like some hamlet vibes um i don't know why this entire saga was necessary to include was hamlet the one in love with his mother that's oedipus no i feel like it was it in the book hamlet i mean they all are if we're being honest okay no like i'm telling you it's hamlet let me google it hamlet mother love oh wait yeah wait hamlet does love his mother he shows this by saying behind when she asks him to instead of going back to school checking in on her trying to keep her out of his plans to kill claudius and not completely shutting her or hating her for moving on from his father so quickly oh so it's like they're saying
Starting point is 00:20:36 hamlet loves his mother he doesn't hate her not like he has this uh freudian love for her. Okay, whatever. Like, English was not my subject still isn't even my language. So I don't really understand why this particular personal anecdote like was necessary for the book. And then I don't really understand why anyone around him would have read this passage and not just like alerted him to the fact like it was fucking weird. And once again, I'm finding really nothing in this book to be of value or worth telling in the sense that like everything that they really wanted to share about leaving, I feel like they have done. So I'm not understanding the purpose of this book whatsoever.
Starting point is 00:21:21 Yeah. And I don't know. I imagine the royal family is freaking out the headlines say there's a war room to deal with the book but like yeah to me this is amazing press for the royal family like they these Meghan and Harry have been kind of a thorn in their side for since they left in 2020 and now he is digging his own grave and I would just sit back and watch because like the American people are turning on him and that's really where his biggest contingency of support was coming from um so I don't I can't I hope they're not thinking of this as like a crisis because it's really not
Starting point is 00:21:57 like he's doing them a favor by really just like writing himself out of embarrassing himself yeah like and just nobody I think people for a while could relate to his feelings of you know putting his wife first and his children first and not wanting history to repeat itself but I don't think a lot of people can relate to what he's doing and sharing all of these not even the penis thing if he wants to talk about his penis like it's his penis to talk about, but like stuff about William and Kate, stuff about his dad, stuff about Camilla. I think like he calls, like there's like a lot of evil stepmother stuff in there.
Starting point is 00:22:31 Honestly, the Camilla stuff to me is like the least interesting. So I don't even know what he- Actually, I don't- Actually, I find Harry's take on Camilla. I watched an interview he did really kind of bashing her. I find his take on Camilla to be the most hypocritical because if anything, if anyone should understand like the position his dad was in, like being forced to marry, not being
Starting point is 00:22:53 able to marry the woman he loved because she was like, you know, divorced or not considered appropriate. Like if anyone should understand that it should be Harry and how he was so lucky to have been given the opportunity to marry someone he loved because look at what happened to his dad and his mom because his dad was just not allowed from the get to marry someone he loved I found his comments on Camilla to be the most hypocritical because if anyone should understand it's Harry yes no but he can't because also like he's his his like Diana's boy like he's always gonna see it from the lens of Diana who who hates Camilla who hates Charles like they they and from her perspective it's like okay they always loved
Starting point is 00:23:31 each other and then they brought Diana in it's just like they used her a placeholder a placeholder so the Harry sees it that way too he doesn't see like this sacrifice that his dad made I don't think he has like a ton of reverence for his dad well that's just immaturity to me but it's like he can't even see this like what we talked about yesterday self-awareness he can't even see the similarities between our experiences but just that Harry had well one being the spare Harry having the privilege of being able to make his own choice right and really like no one told him no when he wanted to marry Megan and his dad was told no so many times and like, look at what it did to everyone involved.
Starting point is 00:24:11 Right. And but it doesn't seem like he has compassion for that. Again, I didn't read the book. Maybe the compassion just didn't make the headlines. Are you going to read the book now? No. One, because it's all out there. All the highlights, anything that's really interesting is already out there
Starting point is 00:24:26 and I I got the point you know I feel like if anything it made it I'm very interested like in the modern history of the Windsor so I might read that book the palace papers I was actually about to start it but then I saw it was like 800 pages and I was like I just can't do this right now um but I just I don't know what's next for the like I feel like I mean I wonder how Megan feels because like she yes she's not really sullied by this book like Harry is self-sullying completely but like yeah where does she go from here because nobody wants to hear from him anymore how is she going to like, she's the only one who could really write their ship now. I think she still has, you know, positive Q scores and
Starting point is 00:25:11 people still like her, but not so much him. No, I was thinking the same thing. Like, what are Megan's thoughts on this? Because she's like, you know, we haven't heard from her. There's been like no press about her. The book is really about harry and his experience and to be honest i just find like so much of what he's been writing to be so hypocritical like of course the camilla stuff but then also i don't know publishing like word for word text message exchanges between harry between megan and kate is so invasive that's like what they that's what they hate that the daily mail did yeah that's what they sued for because when the daily mail published letters that Megan had written to her family like that is an invasion of privacy that is illegal like she was right and justified in suing the daily mail so how you can turn around and publish someone else's conversations without
Starting point is 00:25:57 their consent like that's to me like you're only interested in what benefits you like you don't actually care about the truth because that's so fucked up in my opinion yeah I also think that this book did not get published without Megan's consent approval to like like one I think a wife would read a husband's book too there's so much so much at stake and and you know she has a I think a good sense of judgment in terms of like what's going to play well with yeah the public um so maybe they just didn't see it coming maybe they they've gotten so much praise heaped upon them for the last two years maybe they really didn't think they could go wrong and that people would lap up even more whatever more is he wants to share and call it so right instead of it being like oversharing maybe they they thought we would
Starting point is 00:26:45 think it was brave you know no you're right like america has embraced them to the point where like you know if you criticize anything they do you're just like a hater and i do think that sort of like unbridled like universal acceptance has maybe made them a little uh cocky yeah you're totally right but i don't think they expected in a million years for people to really start to get so annoyed by them so quickly like there was a surgence of like you know especially for Harry like of Harry hatred from the documentary and I think the book is just next level I don't I don't think anybody's reading this book and and sobbing oh my god the truth like it's not I don't think it's what he thought was going to happen. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:29 So, I think after this, they will have some quiet time. But as you love to remind me, they have two more books. Right. But it could be anything. It could be children's book. Children's book, yeah. It could be fiction. You know, he could write like a war novel or something.
Starting point is 00:27:43 Who knows what his interests are. It could be a coffee table book. There's a lot books shall I count all the genres no would it change your opinion of him if he wrote a smut book yeah good one a good one about like yes you know similar did you ever read red white and royal blue no oh my god you should I know it's like royal smut i know so i think that's the only way i recommend it this around it's so funny i recommend that book to everyone that's so funny i try not to recommend books i haven't read no because it has a it has gay characters correct yes it's a gay smut so i always recommend it to my gay friends And they love it And I'm like yeah I pretend like I read it
Starting point is 00:28:27 I'm like it's so good right Yeah I guess I would do that about a book that like Dana Highly recommended to me Like there's this book The Push that like everyone's read It's really serious like I haven't read it But I know it's really good Oh that's so Twilight Totally
Starting point is 00:28:42 Okay Harry that's your next PR move A little smut but you should talk to colleen hoover if she should go write your next book yeah uh even though she's in some trouble of her own yes that's a great segue it is a great segue if we can put a lid on this i guess for now yeah put a lid like seriously and i mean this like with love in my heart, Harry, shut the fuck up, shut the fuck up and go to bed. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:10 But I think also he's reached that celebrity echelon where it's like, they all are very like self congratulatory. They don't really realize that people fucking hate them. You know, he's going on like Stephen Colbert and then Stephen's like, and they, they're doing all their bits and like, there's no one around.
Starting point is 00:29:25 I don't think they they probably don't even look at tweets because they just assume it's all haters. Right. They just like live in this bubble. Like I don't think he even knows that feelings have changed. You know what? You're so right. That's such a danger of celebrity. And I find like when celebrities have people around them who are just like, you know, on the payroll and work for them like their posse.
Starting point is 00:29:45 It really leads to a level of delusion. And so many of like the most grounded celebrities are people that have like childhood friends, family around them who can tell them like, bitch, you look stupid. Yeah. And you need to. I don't think it's healthy to read like everything that people think about you. But if your business is being a public figure, like you do need to take the temperature sometimes. No, you need someone, you need a temperature taker.
Starting point is 00:30:09 It doesn't have to be you. Yeah, an honest temperature taker who's like, listen, we're chilly today. We need to heat things up with some smut. Right. Okay, well, let's get into our next story, which is going to bump to number two some Colleen Hoover news she is in a little bit of hot water she's been um dubbed as quote tone deaf for a coloring
Starting point is 00:30:34 book inspired by her novel about domestic violence it will not be published after all so Colleen announced on Tuesday that she was publishing a coloring book inspired by her book, It Ends With Us, which I think is her biggest book of all of her books. The novel is largely about domestic violence, violence leading many to criticize the coloring book. On Wednesday, Colleen's publisher announced the project would not move forward. So Colleen had said, I'm one of the adult coloring books biggest industry consumers. So to have one of my books turn into a coloring book is a dream.
Starting point is 00:31:09 I'm so excited for this. Releases April 4th, 2023. Beautifully illustrated by Emma Taylor. But then social media users were not excited as the author initially was about the project. Many critical of the decision to turn a novel into a coloring book due to a subject matter. It's about domestic violence. Both the main character and a novel um into a coloring book due to a subject matter it's about domestic violence both the main character and a mother face domestic violence in the story um when you put it like that yeah here's the thing it's definitely weird like first of all it's weird
Starting point is 00:31:37 like and the fact that the for that this idea made it from like the ideation stage all the way to publication without anyone being like is this weird is definitely cause for concern but ultimately like there were people who were excited about this I just think with this like backlash culture like if you think it's weird like just don't buy it you know yeah I also feel like I can understand how an idea like this you know comes to be this is a massively popular book. It's being turned into a movie. Like, how do we monetize it in a way that makes sense with Colleen and her brand? And I'm sure they threw a lot of ideas.
Starting point is 00:32:14 I'm sure a lot of the ideas, when you think about the fact that it's a book about domestic violence, a lot of the ideas then probably don't work. But I don't think they were thinking about the book as a book about domestic violence. Honestly, I think they were thinking of it as you know a calling as a love story yeah and when you look at the book from the lens of books one and two like the whole series it is a love story but when you think of it through the lens of book number one and if you haven't read it just this is a spoiler alert like there is no love story like you actually the book ends no and the book ends and her and Alice just reconnect on the street they don't fall in love they fall
Starting point is 00:32:51 in love in the second book for sure but it's like you know that she's gonna be with Alice and like the after everything that they've been through that they're gonna be together yeah but like in the actual book they are not together yeah I don't know if someone brought this to me and said like, we're going to do a coloring book about it ends with us. It's so popular and people want like more shit to do with it. Content. I'd be like, okay, cool. It would not register for me.
Starting point is 00:33:16 No, it definitely like takes a minute to like sit like, and something about coloring is very childish. And I think that's why the adult coloring space is so popular. It's like reconnecting with your childhood and it's very calming and it helps with anxiety. So in a lot of ways, like it kind of does make sense, you know, like I get why it's weird.
Starting point is 00:33:34 Like I agree that it's weird. I don't know if they had to, you know, halt the whole thing. Like if, if you don't like it, don't buy it. Like you don't have to write a tweet about why you think it's dumb.
Starting point is 00:33:40 Like just don't buy it. Yeah. Yeah. So like I think coloring you know what actually I can make the argument that that the I can make the argument actually that that it's not a terrible idea that it could be healing adult coloring is very much like a healing thing it reduces anxiety it's an escapism and so I actually could see someone thinking this is a good idea that's not me saying I think it's a good idea but I'm I actually could see someone thinking this is a good idea. That's not me saying I think it's a good idea, but I'm saying I could see someone thinking it's a good idea. So I think there were probably there was probably a market for this. And there was probably people
Starting point is 00:34:12 who didn't want it and people don't want it. You literally no one's holding a gun to your head. You don't have to buy it. The more we talk about it, like the more I think it's kind of innocuous. No, the more I think it's like not the worst idea in the world no and i could understand this isn't something to me where it's like this passed through tens of people and nobody noticed like i would have been one of those people like to be honest totally and no like the more we talk through it like i imagine the scenes that we would be coloring wouldn't are not you know it'd be literally coloring in lily's bruises we'd be lily in the flower shop right lily's garden at her house yeah i could see it there's a lot of like every scene is kind of stained for sure for sure but that's but that's
Starting point is 00:35:03 also like the beauty of the book it's like i and what i really loved about the book when i first read it is that it's so it's so accurately took you through the emotions of what it's like to be lily like falling in love it's so great did he just put his hands on me no he couldn't like, you really go through the emotional stages every chapter. So and you also go through the cycle of like being a daughter of that type of situation and wanting to break the cycle. So I don't know. I don't think it's the worst idea. No, I don't think it is either. I didn't know that was happening. That's I didn't know that was going to be where i landed here which is like bring it back no me too i was ready to be like this dumb bitch i'm i'm
Starting point is 00:35:52 going to be part of the contingency that is going to go against the backlashers i'm going to give backlash to the backlashers they need it yeah they do and maybe since the publishing house is really just fucking fickle then they'll hear our movement and then they'll be like, it's back. No, to be honest, I really feel like the decision to not move forward with it was entirely Colleen's. Like Colleen is the biggest author of our time right now. Like what Colleen says goes and she released a statement on her Instagram being like, we announced this project. I immediately got feedback from you guys that it wasn't the vibe. It was not appropriate. We're not doing it anymore like sounds like she just really like respects what her
Starting point is 00:36:28 listeners i mean what her readers think and decided not to move forward for that reason which i understand yeah the the reflex to do that i do so so do i of course but obviously she said she's a huge fan of adult coloring books she's like a huge patron of their you know huge consumer so this was obviously something that like she thought of on her own and like was really excited about and and it was ruined for her yeah congrats you played yourself now we don't get a coloring book and who suffers the colorers it's constantly getting shafted are you ready for our next story which is some more business news um in a week of trending beauty business news it's not yes no sephora is dropping the beauty
Starting point is 00:37:22 lines of tiktok stars addison ray and hyrum yarbrough the hyrum thing is crazy it looks like the beauty products of two popular influencers addison ray and hyrum yarbrough might no longer be available in the malls of america insider has confirmed a well-connected industry source that sephora will be pulling addison ray's item beauty and hyrum yarbrough's selfless by Hyram from its shelves. While item products are still available to purchase on the Beauty Giant site, products from Selfless are nowhere to be found. Well, let's talk about Selfless first. Can I give you background? I feel like you don't know. Yes, I don't know anything.
Starting point is 00:37:55 Okay, so Skincare by Hyram was this TikToker. Selfless by Hyram. Well, no, Hyram. Skincare by Hyram was his name. Oh, okay, okay. And he used to like duet people who did their skincare routine and, like, either praise them or tell them what products were bad. And people would, like, literally do their skincare and be like, Hyram, please rate me. And he would talk about, like, why, you know, certain products don't have great ingredients and this one has fragrance. Like, he was really teaching people about skincare.
Starting point is 00:38:19 And he kind of popped off. Like, really, he had, I don't know how many followers, but, like, a ton. He was all over my For You page and I didn't even follow him and then um he released his own skincare line with Sephora and it was like such a good idea on Sephora's part and when I tell you right after I heard about the launch I never saw a video of Hiram ever again I don't know what the fuck happened um then there was like a little bit of controversy because Hiram is not like a licensed dermatologist. I don't even think he's a licensed esthetician. So it was like, well, why are we listening to Hiram?
Starting point is 00:38:52 Like, what's your background? Yeah, but it's like, why were we listening to Hiram to begin with? Like, no, that was the question. Like, he sounded like he knew what he was talking about. But then I think when you're going to actually get into the space and like sell products to people, like you definitely need to have some sort of like backing medically in order for people to really trust you. Yes, in order for people to trust you for sure. That is fucking weird.
Starting point is 00:39:14 I've never even heard of him. So that just shows you like how big or small he might be. You know, I was not surprised. I literally forgot that he got a skincare line. I was not surprised when they announced that it he got a skincare line. I was not surprised when they announced that it was being canceled. Honestly, I didn't even know it was still on the shelves. I didn't even know he was still on TikTok. I don't know what happened to him. It's like literally he became so successful. And then whether it was the algorithm or whatever,
Starting point is 00:39:35 he literally disappeared from the face of my phone. Wow. Well, he put out a statement to Insider saying due to changes in direction and retail adjustments, Selfless by Hiram products have been winding down at Sephora. So this goes back to what we were saying. Like this doesn't mean that influencers are no longer influential, but like it changes literally every five minutes. So it doesn't make sense to really invest in a standalone brand for an influencer who is not tested and hasn't stood the test of time. And who's not here for the long haul.
Starting point is 00:40:06 Yeah, exactly. And there's no, when someone's been famous for five minutes, there is no way to know which of all these five minute fame people are going to be famous for 10, 15, 20, et cetera. So it doesn't make sense to like invest in them so bigly, but like a capsule collection. What about a capsule collection? but like a capsule collection. What about a capsule collection? Well, so I also was surprised at the Addison of it all because, you know, we were talking earlier this week. TikTok is very much like the hub of beauty trends. Things go viral on TikTok and they really make a difference in what sells in the beauty space. And a lot of Addison's products have gone viral. A lot of
Starting point is 00:40:42 people have reviewed her products very positively. It's definitely not a brand for everyone but it's there are some like bomb products on there and I thought it was doing relatively well I think item beauty is not as successful as it should have could have or would have been yeah because something is going on with Addison like Addison is not invested in being uh an influencer right now. Like she, if you, I follow her on Instagram. So I don't know what she does on TikTok, but she posts like the bare minimum. She posts pictures that could have been taken anytime,
Starting point is 00:41:14 any place like we're not, I don't feel like I'm keeping up with her. I don't feel like she's bringing me into her life, which she used to do. So something's changed with Addison. We're like, she has consciously taken a step back from social media. And I feel like if she had wanted item to be more of a success, like it would have been,
Starting point is 00:41:31 but her priorities are elsewhere right now. I don't know what it is. Maybe it's like she has a lot going on with her family. Maybe she had a taste of all this fame and like she didn't like the taste. And it's like, you know what? I'll just go do these things that make me happy and like travel and be with my boyfriend and like she'll always make money because she is one of the biggest influencers but like she doesn't need to maybe she just doesn't want to work that hard I don't know I'm not that you're totally right there's something going on with her you know
Starting point is 00:41:58 she's definitely pulled back like when you think about you know how much content she used to share really before like the Kardashian days and then she like blew up on Kardashian and like it took her to another level and she made a conscious decision whether it had to do with her family stuff or just a decision she came to on her own she is not sharing what she used to share she's not as public as she used to be and she's relatively like off the grid right so you can't be off the grid and your brand is gonna especially a new brand that doesn't it's not established like it's not going to just stay at the top when the brand revolves around a person the person has to be a hundred percent in and has to stay at the top in order for the brand to be at the top and I don't think she wants that no I don't think she
Starting point is 00:42:43 does either I don't think she's even upset by this no me neither like I don't think she wants that no I don't think she does either I don't think she's even upset by this no me neither like I don't think she cares yeah because she's caring about something else right now I don't know what that is I would I would love to know but it seems like she's happy in what I feel like she cares about her peace yeah which I majorly respect respect same because it's it's a toxic world and it's like she wasn't like chart like Charlie in the sense that Charlie was younger. So she probably wasn't exposed to some of the things that Addison was exposed to when she first got famous. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:14 Plus, she had her family around her to protect her. And like, I think maybe Addison saw into the belly of the beast and was like, no, thank you. I'm good. Yeah. But like some of the perks of this life are amazing And she's always like you know she's always on the Amalfi Coast Yeah she is
Starting point is 00:43:29 Always traveling and just being with her boyfriend And like trying to find happiness I love that for her I really do I liked Item Beauty Like I used a bunch of their products it was cute It was definitely like targeted for a younger demo Younger demos do not shop at Sephora I think Addison's brand would be like
Starting point is 00:43:45 such a better fit at ulta um it's a lower price point it's more accessible sephora is like very hoity-toity there's no reason addison's you know line should be sold in the same store as dior beauty like that just is not she doesn't be next to pat mcgrath yeah but what does ulta not sell dior like they do but ulta is just much more of like everything is here everything you need from the five dollar eyeliner to the fifty dollar eyeliner yeah and sephora is like very tailored very refined you have to get in and it's hard to get in like it's much more of like an elite experience whereas ulta is like for the masses you you need something from from makeup wise you'll be more likely to find it at Ulta.
Starting point is 00:44:26 Is item exclusive to Sephora? It was, yes. So Sephora has this like brand incubator. They like own parts of the brands that launch in their store. Like Rare Beauty they own part of. I believe Makeup by Mario is a Sephora exclusive. Now House Labs. And wasn't Fenty Sephora exclusive?
Starting point is 00:44:50 Maybe at one point. But I think they sell everywhere now so I'm not sure but most of the brands and it's so smart on Sephora's behalf like most of the brands because they can make or break a brand based on where they put you how many stores they put you in so they have this thing where like they will finance and and co-found a brand with a celebrity or an influencer and they'll co-own it together. And that's what they did with Rare Beauty. That has been, I think, probably one of their most successful launches. Same with Makeup by Mario. That's what they did with Addison and Item.
Starting point is 00:45:13 It didn't work. And Skincare by Hyram. And it's not always going to work. It's not always going to work. But like, I mean, look at Rare Beauty. Look at Makeup by Mario. Those are like literally two of the biggest brands in makeup right now and Sephora is at the center of it yeah no I don't think it's a Sephora I think it's a whole pie and every piece has to carry its weight yeah so but also you know
Starting point is 00:45:38 these makeup brands are fickle and fleeting you're at the top right now and you could be floundering in a few years so it's also just such an oversaturated market like if you want to stay at the top forever like you have to constantly be doing the most you know yeah it's tough which is why it's like there's some brands that don't have to resort to these gimmicks that are just like good mainstay like yeah like the ogs the ogs yeah so they're probably like looking at all these clowns who are like in the circus. Yeah. And they're like, we're happy to not be there.
Starting point is 00:46:09 Right. Yeah, it's funny. It'll be funny if in like a few years all these celebrity influencer brands will come and go and like what we're left with is the ones that were here from the beginning. Benefit. NARS.
Starting point is 00:46:22 Yeah. Or Mercier. Totally. But I think A few will Like I think At this point Fenty Like Rihanna's
Starting point is 00:46:28 Not even forward facing Like that is just Here to stay No that's like The perfect example Of launching a brand Off the back of a Celebrity or
Starting point is 00:46:36 Influencer And The brand totally Exists on its own But Rihanna Still being like The face of it Only helps tenfold
Starting point is 00:46:46 great are you ready for our next story yes little young Hollywood news Austin Butler is reacting to Kyra Gerber's ex Jacob Elordi also playing Elvis Austin Butler is ready to pass the torch to Elvis Presley well the Elvis Presley torch to his girlfriend's ex, Jacob Elordi. The Elvis star, who is arguably the world's strongest committer to the bit, shot down any speculation that there's bad blood between him and Jacob, who will be playing the king of rock and roll on the big screen. Butler told Variety at the Golden Globes that, I wish him all the best.
Starting point is 00:47:22 We haven't spoken, but I hope he has a great time. Jacob will be playing Elvis in the Priscilla Presley biopic called Priscilla. Okay, so I feel like we've spoken about how weird it is that literally in the same year they're making another Elvis biopic, especially when like the first one was so big and blockbuster and major. Like, what's the point? I don't think I ever put together that it being Jacob Elordi like that they shared Kaya Gerber we did have that in common we did I believe we did yeah okay I just I guess I haven't like consciously thought about it in a while because it's like definitely weird and I wonder if the interviewer like knew she was asking this like
Starting point is 00:47:59 hot button question or if she just like want to you know talking about the latest Elvis news yeah probably both yeah but it's crazy it's like does Kaia Gerber invent Elvis's or she attracted to men who could play Elvis I think she's attracted to men who could play Elvis like because only the biggest stars in the world could play Elvis biggest stars and like really traditionally like old Hollywood glamour handsome is the vibe of Elvis and like that's so Austin Butler that's clearly like her type yeah I mean whoever she dates next like could be Elvis too right Elvis the miniseries even though like with this you know award season upon us we're getting like a lot of Kaya Gerber and Austin Butler moments photos videos like the video of him
Starting point is 00:48:43 after he won the Golden Globe like giving her the biggest kiss and hug like it's it's literally it's too much like it's so cute it's cute i'm definitely still like justice for vanessa hudgens yeah i'm just like i don't know something about him yeah i think i can't i can't shake that one thing I read once what I can't shake is like what in an alternate reality if like he had blown up in the way that he did you know Nickelodeon star to Elvis you know he was irrelevant for so many years literally I only remembered him as Vanessa Hudgens his boyfriend if if he had you know had this moment and had Vanessa by his side like and not just kind of the way that I see it is like dropping her for somebody like you know younger and more famous and more connected if he had stuck with the girl who stuck with him
Starting point is 00:49:36 I would have had so much respect and like I like it should be Vanessa at the Golden Globes because like Kaya Gerber will be there anyway like I know Vanessa at the Oscars but it's not like he left Vanessa for Kaya there's a lot of time in between them but I do feel like the time from in which he like left Vanessa and got the Elvis role which he knew would change his life like his fortunes changed yeah and so all of a sudden his life did too no and like there's the clip that goes around all the time of Vanessa being asked on live with Kelly and Ryan what she thought about Austin after they broke up being cast as Elvis and she was so happy for him she's like I literally have been manifesting this for him we were in the car going somewhere on the PCH we're in a convertible and an Elvis song comes on and he started singing and i literally said to him like you have to play elvis like i literally like
Starting point is 00:50:29 invented this idea and she was really like genuinely happy for him i don't know i just i can't help but think like what those red carpet photos like what we could be experiencing right now if like you know the two disney kids like stuck together i agree and i feel like we're missing out on that like even though I should have been Vanessa's kiss. I love the content. I love the Vanessa kiss. I mean, I love the Kaya kiss. Like, and this is no slight to Kaya. This has nothing to do with Kaya, but I just can't help but think what could have been. Yeah, no, Kaya is fine. She will be fine. She's literally like nepo baby thrice over. Plus she's literally so gorgeouspo baby thrice over.
Starting point is 00:51:06 Plus she's literally so gorgeous. Like she's fine. I'm not worried about her. No, I agree. Like that, that social climber thing you referenced earlier this week. Like it's definitely, it's definitely there. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:16 It's just so sometimes like my alarm bells go off. Of course. Of course. Our fifth and final story, a little daytime talk show news that I think is going to upset my girl McClurd. No. Insiders are buzzing that Rachel Ray's daytime talk show is ending. No.
Starting point is 00:51:30 I mean, you know what? All good things must come to an end, honestly. And Rachel Ray has been at the helm of like home and cooking and daytime. And she's had an illustrious career. Maybe she's tired. This is not a failure, but world will will not be as good not confirmed but one industry source speculated that her show is ending this will be the last season another source told page six they wouldn't be surprised if the show went away because it hasn't been doing
Starting point is 00:51:55 well for a while it's easy to forget that it's even on she has been on for 17 seasons now and insiders also at the show are scoffing at this and saying that the talk comes up every year because the show is renewed yearly in fact they're out there renewing the show right now there's never a decision until later in the spring so it's one of those you know believe what you want to believe even if the show did end it wouldn't be a failure by any means being on the air for 17 years whether it was her decision or the network decided not to renew regardless it's such a an accomplishment she really and and tv and daytime are so you know on the downhill anyway like i really probably wouldn't
Starting point is 00:52:37 have much to do with rachel although i can't help but imagine that the success of the kelly clarkson show might have had an impact on Rachel Ray. I feel like they're very similar, like audiences and audiences. I mean, they look alike, but their audiences, I feel like are very, you know, older, female, middle America. Like they love Kelly and they love Rachel Ray and they like love to buy all of their clothes, you know? Yeah. But unless they're out at the same time, like why can't we watch both?
Starting point is 00:53:03 No, you can. I just have to imagine the success of her show made a dent in ratings for Rachel, right? Like, people getting their fix from Kelly. I agree with that. And Kelly has, like, an amazing social team. Like, they blow up on TikTok. Her clips go viral. They're really kind of doing the most.
Starting point is 00:53:19 Like, daytime is so antiquated and so old school. And they're very much bringing it into the 21st century. Like, Kelly Clarkson is killing it with the guests everything i mean and you really can't compete with kelly oaky you can't compete with the kelly clarkson show there's nobody in daytime doing more doing better and doing it you know in a more stunning way a more digitally forward way than kelly yeah she kills it she really does look at. And honestly, I imagine that her Kelly Oakey performance of Happier. Oh, no. What song is it?
Starting point is 00:53:49 You Made Me Hate This City. What's that song called? Happier Than Ever. Oh, OK. What that performance, I think, did for her entire show cannot be overestimated. I have seen that video posted on social media no more than a thousand times with millions and millions of views. I think it introduced Kelly to a generation that had not been familiar with, you know, Justin and Kelly and American Idol. I cannot overstate the impact that performance had on her show, honestly.
Starting point is 00:54:21 Well, you know what? That generation needs Kelly because she's a breath of fresh air. She's a positive, uplifting queen. She's been through stuff and she's come out the other side and she's never lost that Kelly smile. I don't know if you saw, but Kelly actually had Justin Guarini on the show. No, I didn't see. I saw clips of the interview. It was so sweet. Like I literally could, I was like, had tears in my eyes they they were such good friends during the uh the show and he was so happy that she won and they had this great career after you know the movie and they were really the kind of like this duo for a while didn't even he was the Dr. Pepper guy yeah I mean that was years and years later but I'm talking about like directly after the show like I don't even think it mattered that that she won and he
Starting point is 00:55:00 didn't like they both really had this moment after the show um and it was so sweet and it was so cool of kelly to like have him on and i can't recommend the interview enough it was really beautiful that's gorgeous it doesn't surprise me though kelly just giving back to the community everyone it's so true so true do you want to have justin guarini on the toast would that be i would love to it's the sweet ones we literally literally started this show with Kelly and we ended the show with Kelly. As we do as often as we can, you know? And you know what I never see? From Jackie to Kelly.
Starting point is 00:55:34 I never see comments less Kelly Clarkson talk. That's what I don't see. You're right. They say less Kardashians, less Royals. But nobody ever says, all right, enough with the Kelly Clarkson. Because you want to know why? She is America's sweetheart, bitch. That's why's why she is she's a woman of the people and actually speaking of i do believe chloe was also recently on um the kelly clarkson show and they they appear
Starting point is 00:55:54 to to connect that's so cool but like do you think kelly gets invited to like those dinners like those celeb star studded like plus billionaires dinners you want to know what i actually think she doesn't um and i don't think that's a reflection on kelly i think kelly is probably the most normal famous person you'll ever see in your life she has said like she is obsessed with her level of fame like she has all these opportunities this bitch goes to walmart nobody looks at her like she has this like unreal level of fame where she's in millions of homes but her life is relatively normal and unaffected i think she still probably does drop off and pick up she probably has a nanny but like i think she maintains this level of normalcy that is jarring to other celebrities because they don't so maybe they're intimidated by kelly i don't think that they can
Starting point is 00:56:44 relate to the feeling of wanting such normalcy like such normalcy like to go to walmart and not because they don't. So maybe they're intimidated by Kelly. I don't think that they can relate to the feeling of wanting such normalcy, like such normalcy, like to go to Walmart and not be recognized. Like they would be offended by that. Like they say, oh, I just want one normal day. Yeah, yeah. But they don't want like a whole ass normal life.
Starting point is 00:56:57 Like it's- No, you're right. And I think Kelly's entire career thus far has been like an act in balancing success and normalcy and she's done it brilliantly and that's why heretofore we need the kelly clarkson documentary how did she do it so true and the things that she overcame with her record label yeah the many eras of kelly give us the dog and the peaks and valleys you know who I want to hear from as a commentator who like has their own personal experience and just can share what their thoughts on Kelly
Starting point is 00:57:31 John Legend Carrie Underwood yeah yeah because she's a similar to Kelly but I want to know what Kelly did that inspired Carrie yep etc etc so that's just a free idea for the industry. I thought you were going to say John Legend because there's that famous moment on Watch Happens Live where Kelly is talking. She was promoting her new album, which had a feature from John Legend. And she was talking about how she wanted a feature and like literally nobody in the music industry would get on her record. She was like, literally, I couldn't get arrested.
Starting point is 00:58:00 And John Legend like showed up and was like, I'll happily do it. And the song blew up and it was like in this amazing story but if it weren't for John Legend like literally nobody would have wanted to be on on her record morons and that's why the industry is filled with morons I completely agree and that's why Addison left honestly honestly it is that sort of elitism and moronacy that sent Addison straight to the Amalfi Coast. We need an Addison X Kelly collab. That's what we need. Addison on the Clarkson show. Addison McClarkson?
Starting point is 00:58:37 We need a song collab. You know what? Literally, Kelly has to do Kelly Oki to. Obsessed. You're obsessed with me so i took a second and i said me too i'm obsessed with me as much as you we need more addison music 100 literally i need addison to find what she loves in this life aside from traveling and ignoring us yeah and to do that we what about her acting? Oh my God, she was so good.
Starting point is 00:59:05 And she saw that. He saw that. She was so good. And she had a big deal with Netflix. And like, what's next? Addison, come back to us. We're sorry. We're sorry for what we did.
Starting point is 00:59:16 She left it all behind for the Amalfi Coast. Can you blame her? No, but we're sorry, Addison. We won't do it again. Whatever it was that we did to upset you, I'm sure it was terrible. I'm sure. What if someone like drove addison away like some nasty big wig tried to take advantage of her yeah let me know
Starting point is 00:59:31 who it is because i'm in town and i'll pull up in my uber and i'll go fuck him up and he'll have to apologize it's a he he'll have to apologize to addison yeah and bring her back. And he will step down and then Addison will get his job controlling the studio. Business woman moments. Bring back our Addison. That is our show. That was our final show of the week.
