It's the toast. It's Jackson Claude. It's your favorite show. The fast five things you need to know. We'll start your day off swirly. It's the toast. I sound amazing. Welcome back to the toast and happy Friday. Yeah. Let me say that again.

Frost yourselves. It's Friday. Ladies of New York, us. Frost yourselves. It's a frost yourself Friday for sure. Title. We can wrap up. Our work here is done. Oh, God.

Bye-bye. Welcome back to The Toast. Happy Friday, you guys. Feels like three eternities since our last episode. Jackie and I were like such businesswomen yesterday. And people were constantly asking us all day, what kind of business y'all in? And we had a lot of answers because we were on set. We were modeling. We were acting. We were acting. By the way, we are bona fide actors. Apparently, you're going to see our work soon. I always say, like, I know I'm an incredible woman and a once-in-a-generation talent. You are. But I can't act. That's why I don't even...

Oh, well, I don't agree after yesterday, but I've always said that, like, you know, it's my dream to be on Hallmark, but I actually don't like pursue it in any real way because I would be awful. But after yesterday, I don't know, like maybe just growing up and maturing has made me a better actress because we were in Crayon on set. Yeah. I don't want to spoil the creative, but Jackie and I were like, you know, we were breaking into a room like that was our that was the role we were given, like two burglars kind of.

And I feel like we suspended disbelief amongst all of our, like everybody around us was like, wow, these girls can act. Like call the police. There's a couple burglars in here. And Ben had one line in this commercial. And first of all, he had to do it like three times. And whenever me and Ben record ads, I'm like, you can't act. Like you're not, like you're being so mean.

Like, the key to acting is, like, doing less. Like, you have to be so chill. I think we absolutely crushed it. I feel like everybody on set was really taken with our acting abilities. They didn't know that, like, we didn't have a lot of experience. Yeah. But you would never know it. No. Then we recorded a fabulous guest interview because on Monday, Jax is traveling back home, so, like, there's just not really time to record a live show, and we happened to have gotten a fab opportunity for a guest. We could say, yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah, we recorded it. He can't cancel. Yeah, he can't cancel. It's already happened. We have Andrew Schultz on the podcast on Monday. That will be Monday's episode and it is so fantastic. We literally just, we were, he was kind of like a gabbing little girl. Like he could not stop gabbing with us. He couldn't stop gabbing with the girlies. We tried to wrap up and then we all just like kept getting carried away with new topics. Yeah, you guys will hear we literally tried to wrap up four times and we just got sidetracked into another conversation. And I think you guys

will be interested. It's kind of the first guest interview dynamic where I actually felt like a third wheel. I felt like Andrew and Jax were really connecting. I feel like you guys have similar, you're at similar life stages and similar just vibes. We have a lot in common. So a couple of times I almost excuse myself. It was really, it was a fabulous episode and it's kind of a different type of guest than we normally do. I mean, we don't really do guests, especially like a man. So I

I think you guys are really going to enjoy it. That's on Monday's episode. Then we headed out. We had a girls night. I got my haircut finally. I know you guys have been like, will she, won't she? How is she going to fit in that haircut? And I fit it in last night. But we also vlogged our entire day. So I don't want to spoil too much because we seriously vlogged the whole day. So you'll get a lot more behind the scenes into all of these exciting business ventures that we ventured into yesterday. What kind of business y'all in? Modeling, journalism. Content creation. Yeah.

Influencing podcasting, entertainment. Entertainment. Yeah, I think entertainment is the umbrella under which we stand. Under which we stand. Now, I want to share a story, and I hate to use my platform, obviously, to embarrass my husband. Oh. But he did something so weenie that I have to share it, and I shared it with everybody at Girls' Night dinner last night, and they were all equally horrified, so I actually felt good about it. Was I there? Yeah. Okay. I might have even told you this, though, like before everybody else.

So we're in town, you know, obviously Ben's sister, my sister-in-law, Mockleton's sister. I just want to tell you to validate something that we've been going on about, not to interrupt you, but I was getting my haircut yesterday and I was talking to Mahogany and she was like, what are you here for? And I was like, Claudia's sister-in-law's wedding. And she was like, oh, Ben's sister is getting married. I'm like, yes, Ben's sister. It's more concise. It's Ben's sister. Yeah. Um,

So Ben is giving a speech, and he, of course, asks me to look at it. And I said, of course, first of all, I want you to do a good job, and two, you can't embarrass us. You're speaking on behalf of both of us, representing the family. So he kind of has been procrastinating, and then two days ago, he sends it to me. And I'm reading it. The first two paragraphs are really sweet. Ben loves his sister so much, and they really, growing up, they were just this unit. There's so much to say. So much to say, and he was making funny jokes. I'm like, wow, I'm really impressed. And then...

He kind of does like the thing you're not supposed to do in acrostic. Okay. He goes like, is for magnificent. A is for adventurous. D is for dedicated. And I stopped reading. I was like, you can't. I was like, did you do an acrostic? And did he do Maddie or Madeline? Maddie. Her full name is Madeline, but no, he did M-A-D-D-Y. Thank God. What was the Y for? Yisrael, like her Yiddish kite. Yeah.

And I was like, Ben, everything you're saying in the letters is really sweet. I don't know why you need like the format of the acrostic. And he like didn't get why it was such a corny, lame thing to do. Like my reaction, he probably thought I was so crazy. I'm like, Ben, that's you starting a speech being like, Miriam Webster defines love. Like it's so corny. And I was just like. It's actually worse than the definition of love. Yeah, it is. As defined by Miriam. Yeah. Is ba-da-ba-ba-ba. But to me, love is Maddie and Matt. So.

So I said, get back to work. That's actually quite pargy. He needs to watch a wedding ringer. I said, I understand maybe you're using the acrostic as an exercise to get your thoughts out. And now you could say, my sister is magnificent. She's adventurous. Exactly. She's dedicated. Exactly. Determined. And let's talk about her Yiddish kite. Let's talk about Yisroel. Yeah, I'm like, you can drop the acrostic now. Like, we don't need it. Oh, my God. I was dying. I...

even think I had to monitor his speech so closely because he loves his sister and like anything he says is going to be if he just speaks from the heart. Oh no. Maddie bullet dodged like I was dying not necrostic. No that's really the lowest rung. It is. Of speech. It's something you write about someone you hate like. Yeah. No not cool so don't worry crisis averted. The wedding will go off without a hitch. But I look forward to hearing his remarks.

Yeah, I think you're going to enjoy it. I made it really nice, like, you know, with my notes. He's speaking, like, during the reception? I don't know at what point, but I assume, yes. And at the wedding, like, not at the pre-stuff? Yeah, no, no, at the wedding. Okay. Yeah. I'll be sat. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Judging. You should. Make sure to let him know what you think. I will. I'm sure it'll be great. Speaking of, like... You said, Ben, I love your speech, but you know what I felt like was missing? An acrostic. I should say that. Yeah. Speaking of Ben wishing people well, he saw his...

You sent me, there's this video on TikTok. I got tagged in TikTok. Is it going viral yet? Because it needs to. We were off our phones all day being models. So I get in the bath at like 10 p.m. I'm broken and everyone's tagging me in this TikTok. I'm like, what now? And this girl was like, with Nikki Blonsky's resurgence on TikTok, everybody's sharing their old cameos.

I remembered that I actually received a cameo once. She was saying she graduated college in 2020, so there was no ceremony, there was no nothing, no way to celebrate. And her boyfriend at the time got her a gift because there was only so many things you could do. A cameo was a great gift. And he wanted to get it from us, but we weren't on cameos, so we did an X-Facts thing and got for Ben. And then she was like, you guys have to watch this cameo. And I was like, okay.

And I don't know what I was expecting, but I just forgot what Ben physically looked like during the pandemic. Like how we all really let ourselves go in different ways. And Ben let himself go facially. He had a beard. He had the craziest beard. And so he's recording a cameo for this lovely young woman. He's whistling the tune. He looks like the Unabomber. Actually the scariest, that girl should get her money back.

I actually thought so. I was like so scared as I'm watching it. Like, what is this going to be? What is he going to say? And I feel like as far as cameos go, he kind of crushed it. Like it was very personalized. It had a nice uplifting message. He threw in his inside jokes. Like it really hit all the buckets that a cameo should like be on message, make the person feel like it's, you know, you don't say the same thing to everyone and also throw in things that will get them. But Kida season. Yeah. Yeah. Like your isms, your isms.

I actually thought it was an amazing cameo and it's so funny. Yeah, I guess I forgot that like Ben has replaced Keto Z with what are you nuts? Yeah. That's if he was on cameo, he'd be saying that these days. Right. And it wasn't his speech, by the way. And is it still? Yeah, I kept it. It was funny. Does Maddie listen to the good guys? For sure. Does she listen to the toast? She does actually. Oh, hey, shout out. Yeah. Um,

And speaking of good guys, not to promote them, but part two, Drake Bell came out yesterday. I haven't had a chance to listen. They're going to have to get in line behind Remy because I have a long content play. Oh, you have to watch Remy too. Yeah. I need to start a content play for podcasts. You have a plane ride coming up. You'll, you'll. Are you crazy? Oh, with them kids. With two kids. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They don't sleep? They don't sleep.

They don't sleep. They used to just sit there in their car seats and watch their iPads. Those days are over. Now they don't want to be in their car seats anymore. They just want to be on mom. Oh, that's really annoying. So yeah, definitely not listening to a podcast. Okay. But no, I can get, I should do it while I'm getting ready and I keep forgetting.

So it's Friday. We have stories. And to be just totally open and honest with our audience, the stories aren't great. But I do feel like that always lends itself to a partier episode. It's not a death sentence for the episode. Right. No, actually, sometimes more often than not, it forces us to just be a little bit more creative. Yeah. It sometimes is an affirmation of life. Come again?

It's not a death sentence. Oh. Sometimes it's an affirmation of life. Would you say that affirmation of life is the opposite of a death sentence? No. Like, I don't know if there's a direct one. If there was, I couldn't think of it. Got it. And so I came up with an affirmation of life. We also have Queenie and Weenie, and I'm actually really proud of mine, because some weeks, we were saying this before the show, like, some weeks, you're, like, constantly thinking of Queenie and Weenie every day. Like, somebody does something, and you jot it down. Like, that's Weenie behavior. And by the end of the week, you have a couple of good options for each situation.

In some weeks you kind of forget about Queenie and Weenie and you have to really evaluate the week in like five minutes. I just need you to know every week is the latter for me. Oh no, this week I was really on top of it. I had my Queenie and Weenie by like Tuesday and Wednesday.

I only last week did I remember I wanted to make Algodó or Sojourner Truth my queenie. Yeah, Sojourner last week came to me early too. And I do feel like going forward, like when in doubt for Queenie, I'm going to go Sojourner. Like why can't she be Queenie again? Oh, kind of like an emergency button. Yeah, just like, you know, Justin Timberlake could always be the queenie. It's good to have just people on reserve. Yeah, I like that. So, it might be Sojourner's week. Sojourner's? It might be Cojourner's week, actually. What about Sojourner's Daughters?

She had a lot of daughters. They said allegedly 13. But really it was five. And that's what you need to know. That's how Soj sees it. Soj. What were you going to say before? When? Like three seconds ago. You were going to another topic, but then you went back to Soj. Oh, I had an idea for Queenie. Write it down. I don't need to. I'm looking right at her. Why? What did I do? You were really helpful to me this week. I was really helpful. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That actually was Queenie behavior. I endorse your nomination. And we don't always are just like, you're a Queenie.

Yeah, I mean, we could. Because also, I probably did something really weenie this week. If I thought hard enough. Totally. But yeah, right now, you're my front runner. Beating out Sojourners is Cojourners. Also always a good option. You can kind of go both, Sojourner or Cojourner. Hit them with the Jurners. A thousand percent.

So we're going to usher you guys into a pargy weekend. Hope everybody has fabulous plans, you know. It's supposed to be 80 degrees in New York. We have fabulous plans. We do. We're celebrating Simchas. We're getting together as a family. It's supposed to be 80 degrees. You know, I don't know where you guys live. Hopefully it's going to be pargy weather. You could step outside. And if not, eh. Jackie was doing that all day yesterday. I'm a TikToker. Eh. That's not TikToker. That's Megan Thee Stallion.

Yeah. But then I'm basket. You know? Yeah, but then it went viral on TikTok. Yeah, yeah. But I'm a savage. Oh, yes. But the ism, like, Megan does it, like, in everyday life. She'll do an interview, and she'll be like, I look bomb, right? That is really funny. I got it vis-a-vis Megan, vis-a-vis TikTok, vis-a-vis I'm not on TikTok. Correct. Vis-a-vis reels. So that's just, like, what I think of. You have a nice tongue. It's so good.

I feel weird now. Well, the tongue is a window into your health, right? So when somebody sticks their tongue out in a picture and it's crusty and white, you're like, you should see a doctor. So it's kind of a vulnerable thing to stick your tongue out. It is. It's a curious how I'm doing. I scrape my tongue every morning, so I feel pretty good. I'm scared now. It looked normal. Tongue-like. Yeah, of course. It's not going to be beautiful. And of course, we can't talk about tongues without talking about Jacob Elordi's.

I think we can. Just do yourself a favor. If you're new here, you probably don't know this. I haven't brought it up in a while. But if you've been listening, you know, like one of my Roman empires is the size of Jacob Elordi's tongue. I don't know how it fits in his mouth. Just Google Jacob Elordi tongue sticking out. And there are these pictures of him and Joey King on the red carpet. And it actually, it looks like a cold cut. Like it's insane. Okay. With that.

I think we should get into the Fast Five stories, the Fast Five life-affirming stories that you need to know. Also a good option for title. Today's episode is also brought to you by Minky Couture. Oh, I'm so glad to have Minky Couture back as a sponsor. They have changed my life. Bring out the blankets. Actually, I don't have a Minky Couture in the studio. I have a couple at home. I've got to get one for the studio. So...

When it comes to blankets, obviously it's so personal. You know, you want something pargy, you want something soft, you want something, you know, aesthetic. Minky Couture is your first and last stop when it comes to shopping for blankets. You will never want to buy another blanket again. They are so soft and luxurious. It really feels like cuddling with a cloud. Um,

And I know a lot of people talk about making couture blankets on social media. And sometimes it's like, well, it's a blanket. How different could it be from like all the others? And you have to see it, experience it to believe it. You will never get another blanket again. I'm telling you, the one at the end of my bed is the most important thing to me. And the only person who loves it more than me is Romeo. So they have the biggest selection of colors, sizes, and patterns on the market. They are the creators, Minky Couture, of the original hugs blanket. So it's stretchy, plush, plush, plush.

and double-sided blanket that really hugs you back. And I can't recommend the stretchy element enough because when I'm making my bed, I like to throw to, um, like cover the entire edge of the bed. And I have a king size bed. So most blankets don't fit, but I liked that the minky couture like really makes your bed look like really well-made. I know that's like a niche OCD thing. Um,

You'll never have a blanket that comes even close to your Minky Couture. It's also a female-owned business started by a mom who just wanted to provide comfort for her daughter. Minky Couture is passionate about giving back to the community. They've donated over 30,000 mini Minkys to NICUs across the country. So they make mini blankets for a baby, obviously, but Romeo has one for his crate. Um,

Our first story, Sydney Sweeney has called off her wedding from her fiance Jonathan DeVino. However, they're not

entirely broken up yet but I think like any minute now. Right. I guess like calling off a wedding isn't necessarily a breakup but it's not a good sign. But it's like I'm too stressed right now to plan a wedding and I also don't want to marry you because I hate you. It's not an affirmation of life. It's not an affirmation of love. But it's not a death sentence.

No, but I'm sure these two are splitting up. Sources say that they have been having major issues but are not fully split. Things are not great right now, but they aren't throwing in the towel yet. They are working on their relationship and have called off the wedding for now. They were supposed to say, I do this spring. The wedding isn't happening and they aren't having further discussions about it. She reportedly wanted to cancel everything due to the stress from her pack production schedule, which has been a point of contention for their couple.

If you find yourself prioritizing your production schedule over your wedding, it's probably not a good sign for the wedding and just the general health of the marriage. Sources say a lot of their issues stem from Sydney being extremely busy with work commitments. She doesn't have a lot of downtime and it can cause tension in their relationship. Sydney's really focused on her career. Jonathan wishes they were able to spend more quality time together. Probably also doesn't help that she's living in a hotel and he's down the street in the house being like, where are you? Yeah, and it probably also doesn't help. It sounds like he could stand to be a little busier.

You know, when someone's really busy, that obviously doesn't make it easy to schedule things. But when the other person is like clearly unemployed, that makes it even harder. Busy people get married all the time to other busy people. Jeff Bezos is getting married like any day now. Right. And I'm sure Lauren's not like, you're too busy for me. No, she loves that he's busy. Stay busy. It keeps her away from me. It's scary if he stopped being busy. No, he probably would want to talk all the time. Yeah. So that's not really... I can...

See easily how people use that as an excuse. Yeah. On both sides. Like you're too busy for me. You don't care about me. And then the person turning to their busyness. Sydney's running to work. To avoid their partner. Booking movies she would never accept just to avoid being at home. Right. So I do think like this is really the end for them. Though I know nothing about them as a couple. Nor do we know anything about him. And we think he's unemployed. But he's also like probably not. And probably successful if she was marrying him.

He's a producer, which is such a big... Why do you say that? He's a restaurateur. Oh, did I make up that he's a producer? I think you did. What does Sidney Sweeney's fiance do for a living? Jonathan DeVino. I assume AI knows what his name is, you know? Jonathan DeVino is a businessman from Chicago. Some reports have referred to him as a restaurateur. Sidney Sweeney has clarified that that's not accurate. She stated he's not a restaurateur, he's a business guy. This is a direct quote. Oh.

He's a business guy. He's from Chicago. In addition to business endeavors, what kind of business y'all in? DeVino has collaborated with Sweeney on her production company, 5050 Films, serving as a producer on projects as Anyone But You and Immaculate. So she gave him a job. Oh my God. And before she gave him work, she had once went on record referring to him as a business guy. He's destitute. He's definitely like on unemployment. Yeah.

Wow, that's really bad. That's the worst thing we could have read. Yeah, business guy. Business, business, business. She shouldn't let people think he was a restaurateur. Yeah, she shouldn't have answered the question. Maybe that's where like the relationship started to break when she told everyone the truth about him. That's really crazy. How did he get this far in life? I don't know. And you know, I don't know if I ended up saying this. That he's ugly?

I should say that. Thank you for reminding me. But no, that's not what I was going to say. I don't know if I ended up saying this on the toast. We were talking about this and I said that I was going to say something and then I said it sounded too mean so I didn't say it. And then on my Instagram, somebody was like, by the way, I feel like I know what you were going to say about Sidney Sweeney. And they did. I don't know how they knew. But I said that he kind of gave me similar vibes as Brittany B.

Murphy. Murphy's. I was about to say Brittany Broski. Brittany Murphy's last like husband slash boyfriend, whatever he was. Yeah, he was just like kind of a Hollywood like grifter producer. It's funny how you can be a producer and be Mark Platt and then you can be a producer and be Jonathan DeVino. So it's such a vague term. Sometimes it really means unemployed and there are actually like successful. Randall Emmett was a producer. You know what I mean? He's like,

Semi-successful. He did produce movies, yes. Like Lone Survivor. Technically, I'm a producer like you are. We produce a show every day. And we produced that commercial yesterday. No, actually, we didn't. We were talent. But we should also get production credit. I would say, like, no, we weren't producers. I'm getting a credit. I don't know about you. Talk to the team about it. I don't know about you. But also, an executive producer is like a more legit role. So it's like a vague term. And I feel like that's what Brittany Murphy's husband was doing, like producing movies.

This doesn't ring that bell for me mostly because I don't get any vibes from Jonathan DeVino because I don't know this man from Adam and because Sydney seems like totally well and fine. She's always surrounded by like family and friends and like there's no red flags in her as a person so I would trust her choice of partner. Whereas like Brittany like went through a lot in all of her time as a famous person. Yeah and by the time she met him like she was susceptible to being manipulated. Yeah no I don't think Sydney is there. Right. So it actually doesn't remind me of that but he also just kind of looks like him.

That's rude to him, to Jonathan. I don't know if I've made it clear. I'm not a Jonathan DeVito fan. What I'm trying to convey is that I'm neither fan nor foe. I have no idea who this person is and what he's about. I can't call it. Okay. I think that's fair. Yeah. Are you ready for our next story, which is some new coupled news coverage?

coupled with a photo of Noah Centennial that people are worried about. - Oh, okay. - So Noah Centennial stepped out on the red carpet for his new movie yesterday. He's actually in a new like war movie where he plays like a Navy seal type. - Oh, he's not playing a high school senior? - No, and this is what he looked like on the red carpet.

And so fans are... Looks like Ben in his cameo. Fans are worried about him. He appeared tired with red circles under his eyes. The red. Like he has a beard and long hair. That's like the disheveled. There's nothing concerning about that. He has these like red... Circles under his eyes. He looks pale. But also around on his eyelids too. He looks pale and as Daily Mail notes, his lips are chapped. Which like... Let me see. They said...

That his lips are chapped. His lips are chapped. I wouldn't have noticed that at first. But no, it's really the discoloration all over his face that's genuinely concerning. Yeah, and like not to be rude, but he looks a little bloated.

Yeah, especially when you know, this is a great before picture from him. When you know what he looks like. He's like a very fresh-faced young actor. You also know that he's been spotted with Zoe Kravitz. Yeah, and I think it's weird. What do you think? I think that's weird. I know. So apparently he's been opened up recently about being sober. He's sober from drugs and alcohol. Oh, wow. And he opened up about his journey recently. And then just looking at this all together. Yeah, you don't want to jump to conclusions, but it's not good. It's not good. However, the bloat, even though his body looks like

Looks good not to, you know, judge his body. But he does play a Navy SEAL in the movie, so maybe he did bulk up a little bit for the role. It's called Warfare. He stars as Brian. Can we just Brian have a last name? They embark on a dangerous mission in Iraq.

So I think that's actually a good turn for him. I agree. He needed to get out of the Netflix high school trope. They're always going to make those sorts of movies. Sierra Burgess is a loser. No, not that. Like American Sniper. Yeah, no, of course. The Loneliest Soldier. That's a Randall Emmett one. Oh, right. Lone Survivor. Lone Survivor. And then I feel like Miles Teller did a bunch of those movies for a couple of years. Yeah, Zero Dark Thirty. Chris Pratt has done some. Hacksaw Ridge. Chris Pratt has done some. It's Good. It's Good.

It's a good thing for a guy. Catherine Bigelow, right? She makes those movies. Does she? Yeah. That's funny. No, I know the genre you're referring to, and I agree it's a good pivot for him. He had to do something, like, totally different. Even though, like, he... You just can't be a high school senior forever, and I feel like he really got away with it for as long as he could. And I feel like he doesn't want to be. Actors never even like those roles, which is so stupid. I actually feel like he liked it. Like, especially because the, um...

The Jenny Han universe of To All the Boys I Loved Before. They did three movies and then there's a spinoff now about the younger sister. And Noah Centineo like does cameos. I actually think he likes it. He doesn't like shy away from his OG role. What was his name? Peter. What was his character's name? Not Peter. Yes, Peter. To All the Boys I Loved? Peter Kavinsky. Peter Kavinsky.

And like you were. Do you remember where you were when Peter Kavinsky like shook the universe when that movie came out? Like people, myself included, were not OK. No, it's true. Peter Kavinsky, this Peter Kavinsky that. And there have been like fanfare because there had been books all about Brian. Oh, Brian. J.C.,

Such an OG family joke. If you know, you know, we can't get into it right now. We have explained it semi recently. Yeah. Several times. Also, it appears as though the movie that he's in is a 24. So like cutting edge is an a 24. I just want to say people are like new a 24 movie. I feel like a 24 has just gotten really big where they keep like buying up movies. So like some of them are good to some of them are bad. Yeah. Yeah.

Also, what's interesting about Zoe Kravitz, it's like, actually, if you think about it, Noah Centennial and Channing Tatum are really similar. They're both like heartthrobs. And now she's just going for like the younger version. Yeah. Maybe I'm just like attached to her and Channing as a couple. I actually really liked them. And that's why I don't like her and Noah. So I'm going to find reasons being like, oh, he's too young. But I think it's just because I think Channing Tatum and her were a really good match. So she's 36 and he's 28. Which is.

Which actually like isn't crazy at all. Not at all. Why does she give older? Yeah. And she was on Big Little Lies and they're like older women. Yeah. And then he seems like he's in high school. And she was with, I don't know, that's her. No, no, no. Her husband. She was married before Channing, right? To who? Didn't she get married the same weekend as Sophie Turner in Paris? Oh, that's like such a niche cultural moment that you remember. I just remember because it's like which one is Jason going to go to?

Jason Momoa. Will he be with his Game of Thrones castmates or with his stepdaughter? Stepdaughter. Because he never even filmed a scene with Sophie Turner. I bet he wasn't even invited. He never made it to the North. Right, right. Something tragic happened before that. Yeah. I was actually thinking last night maybe I would rewatch Game of Thrones soon. It's a purgilicious show. It is, but like...

Don't you want to have free time? Yeah. It's a real... It's a commitment. Commitment. Even though there's only 10 episodes in a season. Is that always something good to do this summer? Okay. So basically you're saying you want me to wait for you. No, I didn't even feel like I'm ready for it. But if that's what's happening in the house that I'm in, like I'm sad. Okay. Better than other things that could happen in the house that I'm in. You sound like one of those memoirs, the house that was on the street. Things that could happen in the house that I built. Yeah.

Totally. The light is on in the house. That I'm in. Those are like books that Margo reads. Yeah, the Kindle Unlimited like thrillers. When we were in the house that we were in. With the window in the house. It's always a window. Yeah. The girl in the house that she built. On a quiet street. The street is always quiet.

Are you ready for our next story? New SNL hosts have been announced. People are in a tizzy because the next three episodes of SNL have been announced and the next one will be hosted by Morgan Wallen and Mikey Madison. Anora. Anora. They released a little clip. And Morgora. It's crazy that Morgan Wallen like still continues to go to SNL. It's crazy that they book him and it's crazy that he accepts it. Well, now I'm trying to remember what's the original sin? During COVID. Yeah.

He got booked and they were like really serious. They did a bubble, right? Like during hardcore COVID. And he was like out. That's those videos of him making out with girls in random bars in Alabama, going back to people's houses and singing for them. It was like the height of his alcoholism, but also not respecting the rules of the bubble. So they canceled on him.

And they had to find someone really last minute who was in the bubble to perform. I forget who ended up filling in for him. Then like he came back. It was like such a big deal. Like after COVID and he made a skit about it. It was funny.

And then he got, it's kind of like a curse for him. It like kind of signals something bad about to happen because after he finally had his like retribution moment, he got canceled again for something different. So I feel like some bad Morgan Wallen news is coming. I just feel like he should stay away. I know, but I feel like he appreciates these like mainstream opportunities because like he's been on the fringes for a while. Yeah. I don't really think that he would actually say no to something like this.

Now, I know like it's always supposed to be a random pairing of like a singer and an actor. But I was watching the clips of them like, hi, I'm Mikey Madison. And I actually felt like such weird tension between them. Like not sexual or anything. You don't feel like they're meant to be? No, I just feel like they, what would these two have to connect about, you know? Like I actually felt awkward. I can't explain it. But maybe I was just picking up on like, maybe my vibes were off. I feel like it could be an opposite to tract situation.

Yeah. Because they're actually like similar age probably. Yeah. I wonder if he saw Nora. They probably both like to like get down. Do you think he saw Nora? No, I don't. And I don't think she listens to his music. And it's definitely like an enemies to lovers situation. Oh, I like that. But like they're both, even though Morgan Wallen could like have a girlfriend, but he's single to me. I don't know actually. He's like super private now about his relationship status. He's definitely like would...

meet someone if he wanted to. You think he's open to like having love in his life? Yeah, no, and I think like even if he's like has a girl who thinks she's his girlfriend, like if he falls in love with Mikey, he falls in love with Mikey. I actually, I think there are a couple of girls walking this earth who think that Morgan Wallen is their boyfriend, honestly. Yeah. I'm one of them. No, I'm kidding. Like I think that he like definitely fucks around with like multiple girls and they're like,

think that they're like... But I think any one of them could be replaced. And maybe one day he'll get married and that's when I'll start like stop setting him up with people. Yeah. But until she walks down the aisle, like he's not yours. Yeah. And he like doesn't do celebrity public relationships a lot. Well, he was dating...

- PQRNs, that's the only one. - Yeah, but they were dating for like a year before they ever posted a picture and that picture was a curse 'cause they broke up the next day. - They literally broke up a week later. - Yeah, so we don't really have like experience. - We never even got to enjoy it. - I know, we don't have any experience of like him dating another famous person, like walking red carpets together. Like he doesn't do that. - Yeah, and I'm sure like he's not ready for that and ready for like a serious relationship 'cause like who would wanna be tortured like that?

No, but they also say like why he threw that chair off the roof in Nashville because he was upset that the mother of his child who he wasn't with anymore, she had gotten married that weekend. Like that's like, he like is hung up on her. That's what they said. Now they are always making things up. Well, he needs like a serious relationship and like, you know, a good woman is what he needs, but he can't see that yet. Yeah.

Yeah, and I think he would be shocked to find how many of his problems would go away with just a stable force in his life. Like a woman who loves him. Who cares about him. Who's smart. Who he should listen to. Who's not making money off of him. I'm sure he has good people in his life, but they want him to tour. They want him to sing. She only cares about Morgan's self. Right. And I feel like Maggie could be that girl. I actually don't, but I like the concept. A stable force in Morgan's life. Yeah. Morgan's self. Yeah.

And then other episodes will be hosted by Jack Black is the next one. And who's a musical guest? Lizzo. Okay. That's a good pairing actually. And then I think it's Jon Hamm and Elton John or vice versa. They've made this confusing. Oh, like you mean in order? Yeah. I don't know who's together. You think Elton's

performing new music or just like greatest hits? - He might be performing from that documentary. - Oh yeah, he had that new song, which sounded good. - "Randy Carlile." - Right, but that's just one. You gotta come with two. - Yeah. Oh, he's performing with "Randy Carlile" to sing their song "Never Too Late." - Okay, I don't love that, I can't lie. - Yeah, I think he should sing "Mona Lisa" and "Mad Hatters." - And the "Benny and the Jets." - Yeah.

Mona Lisa and Mad Hatters. That song was referenced a lot in the book that we just read for the Redheads. I happen to not know what song you're talking about. Maren Morris did the cover on the... You do?

- You do know. - I was actually thinking about Maren Mars this weekend. - She has a new album I saw called Dreamsicle, which is like what I would call an album. - Yeah, it's a good name. I saw something about her this morning, a little sneak peek from a song she's releasing that obviously sounded good. She's very talented. But it did make me think, I kind of forgot about her. And I wonder if her departure from country music, like her big announcement, and I don't know if she still releases music as a country artist. I don't know what the windup was, but I do really wonder if it affected her music negatively or positively.

Because I was thinking, like, oh, I haven't seen Marin music in a while. Marin music. Yeah. Yeah. What do you think? Like... So, I think that there's been negative effects, you know, because she's not getting played on country radio. And maybe pop, it doesn't want her, like...

Right. Like she's not getting like the Dua Lipa treatment. Right. She gave up like a base, but I don't know if she was accepted into a new one yet. Like is she pop? I don't think she's been like unaccepted. I just think it's like harder and bigger. Yeah. More competitive. Yeah. And it's hard to stand out. And now like you want to be a pop star, get on TikTok. Are you going viral? Right. Country doesn't have to do that. They have a nice little system where you get played on the radio. It's old school. Yeah. So I just think she's in a new pool and she's learning how to swim. All right.

All aboard. And, but I think like she would say it's, it's all positive that like, because she feels better. You have to be able to live with yourself. Right, right, right. Like she thinks she made the right choice for Marin. Self-aware and self-aware. Always important. Yeah.

So that's what's happening on SNL if you're gonna be watching. Are you ready for our fourth story? - I am and I'm probably not gonna be watching. I feel like I need to say that. - Yeah, it really could go either way for me. - I just can't stay up till 11:30 these days. - No, but sometimes Zach is watching and I just find myself seeing him. - Yeah, yeah. - He's pretty dedicated to SNL. - Is he? - Yeah, he's pretty habitual in what he watches. - Yes, yes, yes. I see that for him. - Yeah, which is nice.

Chris Hemsworth is making news saying that he regrets taking a selfie with Billie Eilish at the Oscars. What? This is so misleading, but it's actually funny to think of it this way. He said, we will never be friends. Okay, literally me if I met Billie Eilish. So this is what actually happened. He said on Colbert, he said,

He said he got a photo with Billie Eilish at the Oscars and he remembers thinking, ah, don't do it, don't do it. But he thought his kids would love the picture, so he asked for it anyway. And he was like, no, my kids are going to love this. And then the moment I took it, I was like, I went from work colleague to now like a fan. And we'll never be friends. Well, I hear his concern. You're Chris Hemsworth. Someone needs to tell me he's Chris Hemsworth. And so while that rule applies to most people...

It doesn't apply to Chris Hemsworth. I don't care who he's talking to. Like, seriously. Yeah. Even if he was talking to the Queen of England and like he asked for a photo, like it's Chris Hemsworth. It's cool. Yeah. It's not like you're placed in a fan category. And I imagine it's like a pop diva. Like you get a lot of people asking you for photos and they're always like, my daughter.

Or if they're of a certain age. So I'm sure Taylor gets it a lot. I don't think she's thinking about it as much as he is, clearly, like a year later. But I also just don't think Chris Hemsworth and Billie Eilish would be friends. So I don't think it's something he has to worry about, like a friendship that was lost. That's true. No potential opportunity was destroyed here. I don't think they should be friends. That would be weird. Yeah. And I don't think they would get along either, like on a personality level. I don't think they would get along.

Right? Not that I know Chris's personality, but like, I feel like I do. I feel like with him, you can judge the book based on its cover. The cover tells you everything you need to know. He's just Chris Hemsworth. What you see is what you get. Loves his wife, loves Australia, loves to surf, loves the gym, works like, because he likes acting. It's not like a passion of his. Like he makes a lot of money. Like it's sick. Like I feel like it's very like GTL. Very simple. Yeah. Very GTL. Yeah. Yeah.

Jim Tam, Liam Hemsworth. Jim Tam, Liam. It's actually crazy, like, the way that the Liam, the Hemsworth brothers, like, netted out. There was definitely a period of time where Liam was on his way to becoming much more famous than Chris. But Chris was always Thor. I know. You can't be bigger than Thor. And then Liam fucked, like, everything up, you know? Yeah. And I wouldn't even consider him, like, famous now, you know? Yeah. Like, now he's Chris's brother. And there's a third one who's, like. He's Miley's ex.

Yes, he's Miley's ex. There's a third one who's just like the heaven's worst sibling. I literally don't even know his name. Yeah. I want to say it's like Emmett. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Luke. And so Liam's not there yet, but he's not far.

- Yeah. - And what's so crazy is that he was a part of like one of those major franchises, Hunger Games, which is just sort of like gives you eternal fame. - Wait, I literally forgot about that. I'm like, yeah, last song. One of those major franchises. - No, I know, that's what I'm saying. Like he was on his way to being on his brother's level. Like yeah, brother's Thor, but you're Peeta. What's his name? Gabriel. - Peeta Malark. - No, he was the other one, Gabe? - Gale. - I knew it was like a girly little name.

So how he went from like almost competing with his brother to now competing with the other brother. I don't get it. I think he was like too busy telling Miley what to do to work on his own career. Yeah. A thousand percent. Right. Yeah. Yeah.

Totally. Are you ready for our fifth and final story? That's going to lead into our Queenie and Weenie? That's going to lead into our Queenie Weenie. I'm so upset to let you guys know, once again, I did not watch Southern Charm last night. It was ringing in part one, and then Craig was on Watch What Happens Live. Yes. And he stunned Andy with a bit of a dating confession, letting Andy know that he is seeing someone. I'm dying to know. So let's find out after the show. Yeah. I don't want to be annoying. I probably could ask. Can Ben ask? Like, please.

Like Ben's not a gossip girl. Do you know what I mean? Couldn't he be like, the girls want to know who you're dating. They won't tell anyone. That makes us look like losers. Like, I just really want to know, like, is it a Bravo person? Is it just a lady? Sally.

I know it's not Sally. Yes. Which I'm glad about. Is it somebody on the network? Is it somebody in reality TV? Is it a podcaster? Like who is it? He said he's dating someone. He said, I am and I'm really happy. He said, you know, when I date, I tend to only date one person at a time. So I've been seeing someone and I've been reminded that the universe works in crazy ways, but everything happens for a reason. I just want to say the universe working in crazy ways. That makes me feel like it's someone in his orbit that's like come back around. Catherine. Naomi. I don't think it's Naomi, but I do think it's like.

Maybe it's that girl, that blonde girl, Olivia, he took on the boat for one date. Do you remember her? Yeah. I don't know if her name was Olivia, actually. Like, one random season after he started. Oh, they went, like, canoeing? Yeah. Natalie. Natalie.

Natalie. And that's who he was dating the first season of winter house when he met page. Yeah. It was right before page him and page didn't even look at each other at winter house. And like, I'm watching winter house. Like I'm here for Craig and page. And this girl, like she kind of never stood a chance. She never stood a chance, like with the canoe date. And then like, it was just, it was maybe right person, wrong time. He was actually dating her. Cause I remember like Craig and Natalie, Craig and Natalie. I just want to say, I hope it's not Natalie. Like if,

Natalie seems lovely, but it wasn't exciting the first time around. Of course, like the Craig and Paige dance, like we have a giant hole to fill. Giant. They both have big shoes to fill. And it's like no one whose name we even mentioned, not Sally, not Naomi, not Catherine, like it wouldn't make me super happy. Excited, right. I hope it's someone maybe that I'm not thinking of or that we don't know, but I think it's someone Craig already knows. I do. Just based on like this verbiage. People also are inclined to think that it's Kristen Cavallari.

Because he just did. That would fill what I just said. He just did her podcast live show. They had like a brief dating history right before he dated Paige. She's single. They were just like together. It's possible, right? Yeah. I just don't think so. Like, I don't know. I feel like when he chose Paige over Kristen. Like that was the end of it. Yeah, but I think they still were like friends. Friends.

Interesting. Now, Watch Robbins Live was cracking me up last night because they watched. No, they made this TikTok where they did this TikTok. I saw a little bit. It's from Glee. And they do this dance. It's like Santana, Britney and Quinn. It's so funny. So first of all, that cracked me up. And Craig's pants were I'm sorry, they weren't cracking me up. And the joke is obviously like his fashionista girlfriend is not around to help anymore. And I just need to know where those pants came from. You don't think that's like a.

An old Paige outfit that she picked. Like, I feel like if he went back to dressing like Craig, it would be like wearing, you know. I think this is his attempt to like replicate Paige looks on without Paige. With Craig eye. Eye was dying. I feel like he's like wearing old Paige things and maybe just like not putting them together. Well, once he starts buying his own clothes again, he's going to be dressing like Shep and Austin with the khaki pants and a button down shirt. Literally me and my Patagonia vest.

- Literally. - He can have it if he needs it. - The TikTok was so funny and the comments were so funny. - No, I was laughing so hard. - They were like roasting in a loving way. - You know, it was all very sweet and funny, but it's like, because it was Austin and Shep dancing and then Craig comes out from behind. So it's like this big reveal of Craig's pants.

And it actually just made me laugh. It was a suit. Yeah, it was a set. It was a set. It looks like my mom's from the 80s. No, people said it looks like the Winifred pant from Aritzia, which is like the classic like trouser that everybody wears. They were just like too big and ugly. Like it was just really, it was funny.

That's really funny. We're going to find out. Anybody in my personal orbit knows who he's dating. I will not tell anyone. I just like really want to know. Or if one of the girlies who works for Craig is listening to this, like please tell Craig to tell Ben who he's dating. Yeah, because Ben's not going to ask. One thing about us, like we actually can keep a secret. Yes. Okay. We only tell each other. Maybe the girl herself is a toaster and she'll be like, hey guys, it's me. And if she's not, break up with her. What Jackie said. He needs the elk of a toaster. Totally. Well, he does. Um,

Like I said, the story didn't give us much, but we really were still alive. Affirmation of life things. We did that. Like I think we made the most of it. Yeah. As we always do. We've been doing this going on eight years. You guys were professionals. Yeah. Don't ask us what kind of business we're in though. And it's also Queenie and Weenie. So every Friday, Jackie and I like to end the week with a segment we call Queenie of the Week and Weenie of the Week, where

where it's just like it sounds. We're giving out two awards each, so four total. Queenie of the Week and Weenie of the Week, where we nominate two people, places, or things, they don't have to be people, who acted like a queenie this week or acted like a weenie this week. They're kind of self-explanatory titles. It's not that serious, obviously. Like, if you kill someone, you're not going to be Weenie of the Week. Like, it's just like... You're going to be jailed. Right, yeah. You might have a weenie, like, in your mouth this week because you're in jail, but you're not going to be Weenie of the Week. So it's all fun and games, you know? If you find yourself one day being Weenie of the Week, like, just know it's a temporary title. Yeah.

Let's start Queenie or Weenie? Queenie. We're starting Queenie. We literally start Queenie every time. Oh, okay. Don't be fucking rude. Okay. We always start with a positive. You're going to go Queenie and then I'm going to do my Queenie and my Weenie because they're in tandem. Okay. My Queenie is Alex Earl. So good. I feel like we talked about her a lot this week and every time, the more I learn about her, the more I watch, it seems like maybe she took my advice about quitting podcasting and going straight to blogging. We know Sally listens to The Toast. So I think that maybe she took our advice, in which case that gives her Queenie.

Yeah. Nomination energy. But then also her lawsuit. I'm just like, I'm having like an Alex Earle moment, you know? Same, I'm waiting for my Hot Mess merch to arrive. Me too, and my Sip Margs, you know? So Alex Earle.

That's so good. So my Queenie Wallet, it's so close to being you. No, it's okay. I need to give an honorable mention. I hate when we give it to each other. And let me tell everyone what you did. Sure, but I hate when we give it to each other. I wanted to use this as an opportunity to mention to everyone what you did. Mention it all. Because Claudia really helped me out when I was coming to New York. She checked into my hotel. She brought me groceries. She brought dinner. She brought fresh fruit. She got them to bring a fridge up to my room to put it all away. She brought my toys from the studio and my stroller. Usually Zach goes out and gets everything, but she brought everything to us.

And made our stay here just so much more seamless. And it's Queenie like behavior. I want you to have such a. Pargy time every time you come. So it's not like. Oh New York was so hard. I can't wait to not come back. So it was a pleasure. Truly. Well thank you so much. But my Queenie. This is a first. In Toast Herstory. My Queenie and my Weenie are actually the same person. I love when that happens. And it's Nikki Blonsky. Okay. She's just my Weenie. She is my Queenie. Because of everything that's happened for her. And she's getting her flowers. And her cameos are going viral. And she's the number one booked on Cameo. And.

And that's Queenie-like behavior. And that's Queenie-like behavior. And I'm happy for, like, this renaissance of Nikki Blonsky. She is my weenie for passing on the toast. She is my weenie for passing on the toast. Are you crazy? No, I actually have...

come around on it a little bit and let me tell you why. She's my weenie as well. She passed quite swiftly too. She didn't even wait like 12 hours. Like she just passed no reason not like oh thanks so much. It was just like a hard pass and so at first like I am a victim. I make everything about myself and you and like oh she's rude. She hates us. Like weenie. Chip. Chip. Of course the chip reared its ugly head but the more

But the more I thought about it, and obviously, like, I've seen a lot of footage of her recently because she's making all these cameos. I don't know if she's in a place to be doing interviews. And I feel like her passing is more about her than it is about us. I'm choosing to believe that. I just don't think that's true. Okay. Well, she's having this woman and she hasn't done...

I just think she doesn't realize the potential of what an interview with us would be. No, of course. But if she was out here doing other shows or it was announced that she was going to be on Jimmy Fallon this week, I would say, oh, it's personal. Yeah. But she's not acknowledged. She's not looking at the big picture. No, not at all. And that's weenie-like behavior. I agree. I agree. But I'm saying when it comes to me being personally offended, I am letting it go. And not knowing what's best for you, Nikki. Yeah. I'm letting it go from a personal stance. I'm not offended. I just think she's being silly and funny.

I was offended. I wasn't. I don't take things personally. That's big of you. I just think she's a fool. I just think she's a weenie-like fool. But I love her and I'll support her forever. I like when we align on queenie or weenie. Yeah, so it's obviously clear. Right, what was going down this week. This day.

And this is our last show together. Yeah. But we have. Actually, but for you guys, we have a vlog and a guest episode on Monday. Both are going to be released on Monday. So you'll have plenty to watch. The vlog goes on our Patreon, patreon.com slash a toast. It's a great vlog. A lot of BTS about like toastiness. The Andrew Schultz episode will be up for everyone. That'll be our Monday episode. And then we're back to our regular remote framey setup.

On Tuesday, I've missed the frames. Me too, but this has been a nice change up. You know, you got to switch things up. You don't want to burn out. You got to keep things exciting. We are creatives. Shake it up Chicago. We can't be like stifled.

And they're always trying to stifle us. So we need to get the creative juices flowing and I feel like that's what we've done here. I love that.
