Shownotes Transcript

Good morning, Millennials! Welcome back to The Toast and happy Wednesday. It's hump day! Don't forget to hump someone you love. And speaking of girlies that I love with every fiber of my being, it's Jacqueline Follet. Hey, Turteloo. Happy hump day. We've made it to the hump of the week. Yeah, we have. Make sure to get that hump in. Before I get that hump in, I have a question for you.

Ask away. Fire away. Because I can't find mine. So do you happen to have that swirlitude? Well, I always have like a little stash of it just in case I lose my primary. And I have an air tag on it too. So I certainly have my swirlitude. That's huge. Et tu, Terté? Et tu, Terté? You're looking cute and comfy and cozy.

Thank you. Wearing a new boys lie set. Now that I have a tailor in my life, like I'm just sort of like tailoring your sweatpants.

Well, I got these boys like sweatpants that aren't singed at the ankle. So usually that's just a hard pass for me. But I had just got them when the tailor arrived. So I was like, do your worst. Okay. She's made of money. Yeah. I just, I just wanted to like be a tall girl for one. I wear tall girl pants. Having a pair of pants. Tall privilege. When you're short like us and having on the rare occasion, you have a pair of pants that are perfectly hemmed for your height. Yeah.

The difference it makes, and this is my reminder, I still have not signed up for a sewing lesson. I will do it today. Yeah. So now that I got them tailored, I absolutely had to wear them. And that's what's new with me. There's actually a lot going on in my life. Thank you for asking. Not only am I on day three of my coccidinia journey, I have to, and I think, I know I've said this, but I just want to reiterate, this pillow that I'm currently sitting on has changed my life. I ordered another one. I'm going to leave it in my car. Okay.

I can't say enough good things about this pillow for real. First of all, how has your Coxedinia journey been? Well, the community has been very, very open with me, which has been huge. I think that at first it was shocking for a lot of people to finally have a role model to look up to, you know, someone so famous finally talking about this invisible illness. Um, that's sort of been the reception I've gotten from the community. You know, they said that, um,

It's been great. I've pretty much gotten no tangible advice. People are like, yeah, it sucks. Like we just live with it, you know? Right, right. So you may see me and you see this glamorous celebrity, obviously, but what you don't know is I'm really suffering. Okay, well, we're always here for you.

Coxed in the is strong. What more can I say? C.S. Coxed in the is strong. Now, other major things happening in my life, and I feel like it's so perfect. You know, we're we are now 100 days away from Christmas. So it's all really starting. Is that the official 100 day countdown? You know, Mariah Carey posted like she actually didn't post because she's actually going through. Did you see like she lost her mother and her sister on the same exact day? Like, yeah, she's really going through it. But the Internet is now posting that picture of her frozen. It's like Mariah Carey is starting to thaw.

- 100 days away from Christmas, wow. - And what that means is like our homes are becoming homeier. And so I was gone all summer. I am now taking many steps into making my home a little bit homeier and cozier for the holidays. I'm limited obviously in what I could do 'cause I can't have a Christmas tree.

So I got two other things instead of a Christmas tree. Even if you could, it's only September. Oh, I'm all for the holiday. I was having this conversation with Ben because we were driving some or we were going golfing and on the way we were like driving through the suburban neighborhood and I saw somebody with their Halloween decorations up and it's, it's honestly an appropriate time. It's not that crazy, but we were literally outside all day. We were playing pickleball. It was almost a hundred degrees that day. I'm like,

While the timing is fine, the weather isn't. Like to have pumpkins and shit out when it's seriously over 80 degrees, not acceptable. Here are my thoughts. If you are like an extreme holiday celebrator, like you want to get the most out of the season, I think you can put up Halloween fall decor after Labor Day.

And I think you can put up Christmas decor after Halloween, like November 1st. The fact that there are people and they're just used to it. They don't realize how special it is to be able to put up a Christmas tree. That there are people like the Streckers for the last two, three years, I have gone over to their house and done Christmas with them, like putting up their tree. It's like so nice that they include me. And it's like always in December.

I think it used to be like after Thanksgiving. That was really like when everyone would put up their Christmas trees. But I just think we need a little more holiday cheer in the year. And November 1st is the holiday season. It just is. November 1st is the holiday season. I said to Ben, I'm like, that's so crazy. But if I was Christian or any denomination where I could put up a Christmas tree, like November 1st comes, it's Christmas time in this house. We're playing Christmas music. Yeah.

So I can't participate. I did get a Crock-Pot. Now, the devil works hard, but Crock-Pot Incorporated works harder. TM. Because by end of day yesterday, there was a Crock-Pot at the studio. It literally arrived in this gorgeous box. I got like new state of the art. Seriously, that was very generous. Crock-Pot, thank you. And I'm already collecting recipes.

- Great, and how did the crock-pock look? Was it everything that you hoped for? Is it different from mine? I asked you to tell me that. - I haven't opened it yet. It's a big responsibility to find counter space or cabinet space for it. I'm not there yet.

Understood. Well, speaking of crockpots, I've embarked on a really fun personal project. And I feel like in your adult life, you don't get a lot of opportunities to do personal projects, like just for the fun of it. Like I love, by the way, I totally agree. And I want to say, I've been meaning to tell you this in the spirit of the project you're embarking on, which she will share momentarily. The spirit of this project is preserving, you know, family, not heirlooms, but like family recipes, but

I meant to tell you like what you're doing is so important for our family because you know we're such lazy slobs and no one else is going to do it but you. And I need you to know like this is now your responsibility, not just recipes, like all family things that need to be preserved, whether it's recipes, whether it's memories, whether it's like a family tree or some shit like that is your job now. You are like the family historian historian. OK, I love what you're doing with the recipes. Tell everyone. But just so you know, like.

We need to do more of this for other things. I can't think of the things, but you know what I'm talking about. Like family vibes need to be preserved and it's you. Okay, thank you. But I do have a co-chair in this, which is Olivia, because she already has the family tree. She actually does a lot of like extensive-

family research. So I think together, when we put our minds together, we can create a full library. The project that I'm working on right now is a personal cookbook, like for my own life. It started as just wanting to jot down all the recipes that I make every single night that I like get from random websites. I've printed them. I add stuff to them. Like I take, I just change them a little bit.

And I always have to go and look at the page, like what temperature do I cook it at? And like, I have all these random pages around my kitchen and I'm like, I want to make a little cookbook for myself of like my nightly recipes. And then in doing that, I realized like how many recipes I do have. But then also I got a bunch of recipes from my mom of things that we either ate a lot growing up or like actual family history recipes that like came right from Russia. Yeah. Yeah.

The cabbage soup recipe, hundreds of years old. But then also like things we ate for weeknight dinner growing up. The Wickel de Kruijten.

Like our cabbage, our cassoulet recipe. We love cassoulet in our house and I've never made it in my house. And then my mom sent the recipe and like now at the level of cook that I am like easy peasy. Can't wait. Yeah. That recipe had no measurements. I need you to get to work. I will. I'll get in the lab Elizabeth Zott style like trying different measurements. Because I wanted to make that chicken on Friday for Shabbat. So like if you could work a little faster. Yeah.

I know you have a lot going on. I'm going to do the rest of my writing today. I'm going to do my chili recipe. I also have a bunch of recipes like in my notes, like chicken soup. I've developed my chicken soup recipe over the years, like every time we get sick and I do feel a little tickle in my throat. So just like putting it all of it down on these recipe pages. And you have such gorgeous handwriting. And I got a really cute recipe book that's going to be here tomorrow.

And even last night I used one of my recipes. It made cooking like so much swifter. I wasn't like shuffling through pages. Like also I've whittled down the directions like the need to know information for me.

It's been such a fun project for myself, but also it's now having this greater purpose. And then someone messaged me saying like, this is something that I then can pass, then the family will have it. I could pass it down. And like, I don't know, some recipes are more eternal than others, but as far as the everyday cooking, just like the baked chicken, I'm not recreating the wheel here, but I

It's just like making cooking so much easier, more fun and aesthetically pleasing. Yeah. And it's given me an opportunity to remind you like you have officially been nominated and won. Like this is your responsibility. I need you to like write down either digitally or analog everything, you know, things. I can't explain it, but like you are now like the family secretary, if that makes sense. Understood.

And I take this very seriously, this role. And then I guess when my book is done, I'll like make photocopies for you. - Oh, 1000%. Although I do think I could see a really sweet gift in the future being like you making it again, like handwritten, not like some Xerox piece of shit. Like you making like by hand again for someone. Like I could see Olivia loving that as a gift.

- Yeah. - Just an idea. - Okay. No, no, no, I know, one step out of time, but right now I'm having like a lot of fun with it. It's really nice to like flex your creative muscles, like not for work, not for arts and crafts with the kids, but just like for your own self. I can't remember the last time I did something like this. - For Jack Self.

For Jack's self. And it will help me get my house in order. Like it's a win-win. No, it's that time of year, the season, like you could feel the shift in the air. Like we need to get our houses in order. I got a Dyson vacuum. Like you bitches could never. Good luck finding one piece of fucking dust in my house. Classic. And I mounted it to the wall. Like am I grown up? Well, I didn't mount it. I had a handyman come because obviously my husband doesn't know how to use a drill. Am I grown the fuck up or what?

I actually am thinking about building a bookshelf today because I ordered this bookshelf for the play area. We have the bookshelf in Harry's room. It's so cute. And Zach was like, do you want the handyman to come this weekend? I was like, for one kid's bookshelf, like,

I really think that either we need to wait months till we have more tasks around the house or we should give it a shot. No, the thing is, and I don't know this to be true because I haven't learned yet, but I think there comes a time in your life where you learn how to use a power drill and there's just before power drill and after power drill. Although you know Zach Shapiro knows how to use a power drill. Like he could do that too. I don't even think you need a power drill. I think you just need like just pay.

I think you could probably use regular screws, screwdriver. - No, you definitely need a power drill. - No, it doesn't go into the wall. It's a standing. Yeah, no power drill. - Oh my God. Yeah, Jackie, you can do that. - I know, so I think I'm gonna do it today like Bob the Builder. Can she build it? Yes, she can. - Yeah, on the list of things like I need to learn, it goes sewing and then power drill. - Okay, for me, it goes haircuts. - Yeah. - And then sewing and then home renovation. - No, that's so funny, haircuts, yeah, number one. I feel like learning is not hard actually.

I think I could get really good at haircuts so much. So like when your husband came down here, like I could just give him a crop. Or like all the boys in the neighborhood lining up for like that lady's haircuts. Haircuts by Jax. And like the boys who walk Bruno for you, in lieu of payment one week, you'll give him a haircut.

Totally. Also, my husband likes a tight fade. Yeah. Like he thinks he's on The Bachelor or something. So I would have to learn that too. That. If I really want to be competing. I feel like you already have the tools like that manscaped trimmer. That's what they use. Yeah. I actually think it's not that hard tactically. It's more so like getting your mind around it and learning how to use that equipment and not be worried about like cutting someone. Oh, so you know how we were talking yesterday? Like, was my husband going to give me a gift? Yeah.

Right. So we come from recording good guys with a gift. Like, did I feel like a piece of shit or what? Now, in all fairness, the gift is being returned. Like, I actually don't need it. And it's like sweet, but just like silly, you know? I'm not an extravagant person, you know? I know you see this glamorous celebrity, you think extravagance, but I'm actually not.

It's the dichotomy of Claude Self. Exactly. But he did come on with another gift because yesterday Ben was in this here studio sitting in this here chair recording a podcast for Good Guys. And this is going to be a spoiler. He's going to kill me. But they're having Mike the situation on. And I was telling Ben like all my questions I had because, you know, I read his book and I absolutely loved it. Ben came home with a signed copy.

And he said, it's not, it is so sweet. And it was like personalized. It was like, Claudia, it's not about the setback. It's about the comeback, which was like one of the major motifs, if you will, from Mike, the situation's memoir. And he also left a bunch of signed copies here. So if you want one, I have one for you too. Oh,

Oh, wow. Well, thank you so much. Thanks. We're kind of like doing big things here at toast HQ. Oh, I'm also going to see a potential new toast HQ space today. You know, I need to move out of the space. I know you do, but I know you don't like change. And because I'm not there to push you along and it's really, it's been a year. It's totally up to you. Like that's it. It's like, has to be close to where you live. Like it has to be what you like. I, you know, I'm just coming into your space when I come. I,

I am excited about this potential space. Like I would there. And by the way, I don't even like this current studio that I'm in so much. Like from an audio standpoint, the ceilings are too high. There's too much natural light. I don't have enough wall space. Too much street noise. Yeah. I would love to have two separate setups so that when you come to town, I don't have to move so much furniture. When Ben uses it as a guest, like,

And I think when I move, my life will become better. Like the next studio will be better even though I'm so against moving. I'm really excited about this one I'm seeing today. The thing is, is like when you're looking for office space and I don't frequently look for office space, it's not the same as like looking for an apartment. When you're looking for an apartment, you get like a million pictures, a video. So by the time you actually decide you wanna go see it, you pretty much know what you're walking into.

They don't have like listings for office space and they certainly don't have videos. They said floor plans and like pictures of the building from the outside. Who fucking cares? So this one I'm seeing today, I'm like super excited about. I have no idea what it looks like on the inside. I just like the location. Right, right. And I like that it's like big, you know? And it's a good price, which means it's probably going to be ugly. Well...

I know you can beautify it. The beautification committee will come in. The beautification is based, the beautification committee is based in Florida. Like seriously, I need you to come. I can be, I can do remote beautification work and I actually am coming. So if you do like it, I'll see you soon. Oh yeah, Jax is coming to town next week. We've got like a fun influencer event. Like kind of like influencer event. We'll tell you more about it when it happens. And then we're also recording a guest interview with someone beloved. So that's fabulous. It's actually going to be a really fun. 24 hours.

A fun jaunt. That is a jaunt. That is a jaunt. We'll just kind of be traversing through New York City being fabulous, glamorous celebrities, if you will. Totally. Normalize referring to yourself as a glamorous celebrity more. Like, my confidence since we've started the show, and this wasn't something I planned on doing, it just naturally came out three times, I already feel like...

Like I'm glowing. - Like a glamorous celebrity. - Correct. - Speaking of glamorous celebrities, I don't know if you saw my story 'cause I posted it like three seconds before I called you, but I'm like scrolling the news this morning for stories and who's in my face?

Ben Soffer. I too was scrolling for stories. I sent you a bunch of stories, by the way. Did you include? Yeah, yeah, I have them. It was two in total. Yes, yes, yes. But I was looking this morning. I woke up so early. So I was like, I guess I'll get to work. And I too saw Ben Soffer's face. It was very jarring to be like looking for stories for work on page six dot com. And then your husband's big face is right there.

And like, to be honest, I'm used to it from you in a good way. Like I- - 'Cause I'm a glamorous celebrity. - No, I see it like so frequently. Like it doesn't shock me anymore. It's just another celebrity- - Glamorous celebrity thing, yeah. - But Ben, this was actually a first, I've seen good guys in the wild. Like Hilary Duff says on "Good Guys", but like to just see like Ben's face in the headline, like all about Ben, it was a very proud sissy-in-law moment. - Thousand percent. - Hashtag proud sissy-in-law. - Hashtag proud sissy-in-law.

Now, we do have a great show. There actually are very good stories, updates in the Diddy case. We also have Dear Toasters today. The Swirlies are in need in a desperate sort of sense. Oh, and I wanted to hop on and let everybody know that we... I love hopping on. We are taking new submissions for Dear Toasters. We've sort of hit a dead end. So deartoasters.gmail.com if you want to write us an email or our website.

site the toast podcast.com if you're going through something you want help from us we'll keep it totally anonymous and you know the weirder the better head over to dear toasters at gmail.com or the toast podcast.com love that it also just makes me think maybe we've solved the world's issues if like if there are no dear toaster submissions like there are no problems in the world no there are let me just be honest and level with you we had a mishap with the email and some of the submissions just are gone so uh dear toasters at gmail.com we didn't cure the world no

Tomorrow's another day, Turdy. Oh my God, you know, I was watching Olivia Jade this morning. You know, she has an aura ring. She wears it on her ring finger. Oh wait, I saw her video. I need to see how she's styling it. Well, it was a morning routine. I feel like it wasn't styled yet. She was just like doing her skincare, so. No, but I saw her. Okay, but she wears so much jewelry. Ring finger, and I meant to like send her a message and be like, you know, you're not supposed to wear it on your ring finger, but I didn't want to be like an aura know-it-all. Turdy, so listen.

I messaged or a ring. Remember I posted on my story the other day, like whoever was the person at or a ring who helped us get our or rings. Like, can you message me? It turns out it was at or a ring. I don't know why I thought it was like some fancy email. Yeah. Right. So they messaged me. I was like, so 30 and I, like we actually sized for the wrong fingers and we know you're supposed to run on their index finger. And she was like, it works on any finger. Um, but if you do want new ones for your index finger, let me know. But like you, it's totally fine. Thank God. I didn't message Olivia Jade. How embarrassing would that have been?

Well, it's so funny that you bring that up because I, and I need to put this out into the ether. You know, I was at ring concierge yesterday, like, you know, playing with jewelry and hanging out with the girls there. And they're like, we're really trying to get in contact with aura ring. We want to do like a collab of either like a special edition ring. That's not like so fucking ugly or,

Or like a ring that they can make that goes hand in hand with Oura Ring that like you slide over to make it look more stylish. And they're like, we haven't been able to get in contact with anyone. So if you work at Oura Ring and you're a toaster, like go respond to the email from ring concierge. We need that. The girlies need that. We need that. You don't understand. I have like so much jewelry coming that I've ordered. And I'm like thinking of looking for things to buy both like fancy and non-fancy. Yeah.

Because I need to like all of a sudden I'm going to be wearing rings on all 10 fingers just because of this one or. Okay it's getting Janice Ian but okay. Just to camouflage like the one big ring. Thousand percent.

But I actually have like some cute stuff coming. Cute, see? I got like targeted ads on Instagram for like fake jewelry. Wish me luck. Oh God, she's literally gonna go to the hospital. Jackie has very sensitive skin. Oh my God, I didn't even think about that. Like I could wear like, you give me a ring made of like duty and my skin won't react. I have very tough, you know, celebrity glamorous type of skin. You have very, very sensitive. I need to wear like all real gold

You're literally a Victorian child. Like if a Victorian child wore like Amazon earrings, they would seriously, they would probably die of tuberculosis. Yeah. You are very similar. No, I didn't even think about that for my rings. I'm very aware of it, of my ears, but rings, darn them, have like a green thumb, literally. And not in the good way. No.

Oh, speaking of personal projects, my herb garden, I haven't started it. I just need to hold myself accountable. So speaking of personal projects, there's no update. Like I have like a huge upcoming personal project of like Zen Garden Cold Plunge Garden. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

And I don't know how to take the first step. But I do have a cold plunge on the way from Sun Home Sauna. Shout out. I'm so excited. That's huge. So soon I'm going to be cold plunging. And then it's over for you, bitches. It's over for you, bitches. Even though, oh, you know, Kourtney Kardashian was on Skinny Confidential podcast. I feel like, no, him and her. Sorry, I always call it that. Well, they asked her, like, what's up? I think it's both. It's the Skinny Confidential him and her podcast. Okay, so I said it right. Yeah.

They asked her like, what's a wellness hack? Like you just like never got into or a wellness trend that you are not into. And she said cold plunging. She's like, I just don't like it. Okay. It's not push approved. Well, I don't think it's disapproved. I just don't like it. You can't do everything. And you have to like, if it's, if it's not enjoyable to you and it's not worth what you get out of it, then what's the point? I feel like Travis probably cold plunges. A thousand percent.

You know? I mean, we'll see how it goes for me. I would love to know, you know how you're always sharing like the baby names of the year, Olivia, Noah, you know? The name Travis is...

Like at first, I think they were all born in the same year. Travis Scott, Travis Barker, Travis Kelsey. Like since when is everybody named Travis and they're all famous? I think probably like the year 1989 was a good year for Travis and Taylor. So true. Oh my God. And on my way to work today, I was getting so excited that we're going to ERAs. Like I was listening to Cardigan, which like isn't even my favorite song, but she plays it at ERAs. And I was just like, we're going to have the best time. We still don't have outfits, but it's fine.

No, but we actually are going to have the best time. I have a full house that weekend. It's going to be bussing. It's going to be bussing. I'm so excited. Sweet. I think we need to take a party bus. Even though it's only three of us going to the concert, we need a party bus. Okay. I love a party bus. I love a party bus. And we do need wheels. 1,000% because you can't drive us.

actually I have been making major strides in my driving like I will not be held back anymore oh my god I love that yeah so I also did something to help further my my driving and that is I've changed the settings on my Tesla to be rolling all the time so right now with my Tesla like it drives like a golf cart if your feet is if your foot's not on the gas it doesn't move versus like a a

A regular car, once your foot is off the brake, even if you're not on the gas yet, you're rolling. Yeah, rolling. So I put my Tesla in rolling settings so it drives like a regular car. That way, if I'm ever in a regular car, I feel much more comfortable. And you know what? It's been fine. I'm already acclimated to it. Good. Step one. Yeah. I am so happy for you. And I think like you're living life half-mast.

Yeah, no, I've really been getting out there and getting after it. And now like really when Zach and I are going somewhere, like even though I don't want to, like I insist that I drive because I need to do it with him first before I can do it on my own. So it's better if we do it when we actually have somewhere to go. Like the only way out is through. Like you just have to do it. And you know who's really been a source of inspiration for me? Me? Yeah.

Yeah, because Margo like really started her driving journey like two years after you. Margo was like driving on the highways of Wyoming. Margo drove from the city to the Hamptons, which is arguably like one of the scariest drives. She just like is getting after it. You know what? She's leaving you in the dust. You're eating her dust. No.

No, she is more advanced than me now, even though she got her license like more recently. The only difference is that she gets to practice all the time and do these drives like without kids in the car. The reason why I don't go further is because I often have the kids. I'm not like practicing with them. So she's really been a source of inspiration. Like, thank you, Satchel. And that's what a counselor does. Pushes you, teaches you new things, pushes you past your limits and shows you that you're capable of anything and your potential is endless. It's so true, by the way. Yeah. Um,

I feel ready to dive in. We actually have like a lot to do. Zandra was at Dancing with the Stars and everyone was tagging me in it. Like I like how I have become. It's so funny. You and I are always saying how we like we'll start talking about something either on Instagram or on the podcast. And then it's like the only thing we get tagged in like thousands of comments for you, obviously sourdough for me, anything having to do with Tariq El Moussa. Like all I do is get tagged. And now I'm like the face of Danny and Zandra happily, by the way.

Well, let's get into it because we've got the Fast Five stories that you need to know. And the Fast Five stories are brought to you by Smart Mouth, the only mouthwash scientifically proven to eliminate and prevent bad breath for 24 hours with just two rinses a day. So Smart Mouth prevents bad breath 12 times longer than the leading brand, and their unique dual chamber bottle keeps their powerful solution separate until you're ready to rinse.

When you pour the two solutions into the cup, you're activating the smart zinc technology and that zinc ion activation is the key to eliminating and preventing sulfur gas, aka bad breath, and the secret to all day fresh breath. Smart Mouth was developed by a dentist so you can obviously trust. Let me say this, I love a brand that takes bad breath seriously because I feel like people just slap mint on a bottle and they're like, oh look, it'll get rid of your bad breath.

I am so afraid of having bad breath. I think like people with bad breath in my face is my worst nightmare. Me having potentially bad breath, like talking to people is my worst nightmare. And I love that SmartMouth is like out here doing the work, not just like, you know, throwing a label on and being like, we'll get rid of your bad breath. No, there is science behind this. I love, I am so breath conscious. And I also love having SmartMouth in my house because I love my husband so dearly, but like he does eat a very unique blend of foods and he's a very, it's a courageous diet. And so,

Sometimes that causes bad breath, and so I love having this on tap. Don't miss out on 24-hour fresh breath.

Find Smart Mouth at CVS, Walgreens, and Walmart, or visit smartmouth.com slash toast to snag a special discount on your next Smart Mouth purchase. That's www.smartmouth.com slash toast. Your mouth will thank you. Today's episode is also brought to you by Quince, our favorite. So as we were saying, it's that time of year. Mariah Carey is unthawing. We're shifting our wardrobes from summer to fall. And that time of year can always be a challenge from a wardrobe perspective.

Our first story, an update in the Diddy case. Sean Diddy Combs will be held without bail after sex trafficking and racketeering arrest. Okay, I take back what I said, like about him getting special treatment. Obviously, that's not the case. Thank God. Yeah, Diddy was not granted bond.

following his bombshell arrest this week, a judge ordered that the rapper turned mogul be held without bail pending trial in his ongoing sex trafficking case in federal court in lower Manhattan on Tuesday. During a press conference, his attorney shared that he's planning to appeal the bail decision, saying Mr. Combs is a fighter. He's not afraid of the charges. He's been looking forward to this day. He's been looking forward to clearing his name. He didn't do these things. He's been looking forward to this day?

Yeah. They said this was a 10 year relationship. There was no coercion. There was no crime. I think in regards to Cassie, but that doesn't even talk about the things that they found in his house. Like even just the AR 15s that had like defaced serial numbers. That's a crime in itself. Like everything that they found. Oh,

Oh, I mean, it's of course Sade, but everything that they found in his house, like in total, like carries a sentence of about 20 years. And that's before anyone's personal testimony or anything. And I personally like love the idea, the visual of him sitting in a prison cell, right? This is a person who's been famous and wealthy for a really long time. He's definitely like a little bit of like, you know, a diva. He probably like has his nice things, his...

furry blankets and his skincare routine. And I love the idea of him rotting in a prison cell. Now, I feel like we talked a lot about Diddy yesterday and over the course of this journey we've talked about it a lot but we haven't really talked about 50 Cent. And I

what 50 Cent is doing here. He made news yesterday because he made an Instagram caption referencing the thousand bottles of lubricant. Yeah, he posted a picture with Drew Barrymore and said, here I am keeping good company with Drew Barrymore and I don't have 1,000 bottles of lube at the house. So I think, first of all, that's funny. And second of all, I love that 50 Cent, obviously it's easy to like talk out, speak out against P. Diddy now knowing what we know, right? And everyone's like, yeah, P. Diddy sucks. But there's a lot of people

But there are a lot of people in Hollywood who weren't complicit but obviously knew about this, right? It was like a big operation. And he had a reputation for it. So P. Diddy, like talking, I'm sorry, excuse me, 50 Cent talking about this like before it all came out. He's been ragging on P. Diddy and like referencing and inferring and leaving subtle hints for many years. And I just feel like he doesn't get enough credit because that's like a brave thing to do. Now it's out. Now everyone who thinks they say something are like brave and saying something new. Yeah.

But they're not. But to say it before, yeah, especially when like he is so powerful and everyone is on his side and everyone's going to his circles. And I think, you know, at his peak, Diddy was more successful than 50 Cent. Not even at his peak, like in like a thousand ions more successful than 50 Cent. And they're both in the music game. So like, it's not even like there's any distance. Like one is an actor. No,

50 Cent, like, in an odd sense, like, risked a lot by being outwardly vocal and outwardly, like, hateful of P. Diddy. And now, of course, we know why. And it always felt like silly beef, right? Like, his captions, things like that, where I was, like, jokey. But knowing what we know now, it's like, okay, 50 Cent, like, the moral compass of Hollywood? Question mark? Right. Question mark. Like, I love him. Like, I literally love him. Yeah. Yeah.

So the wheels of justice, Turdy. Yeah, and I take back what I said. Like, I do still find it strange we haven't seen a mugshot. But being held without bail is like a really extreme thing. It's always, you know, you're innocent until proven guilty. And if you can make bail, you can make bail. But when they don't let you have bail, that's because they think you're dangerous. They think you're likely to flee. Sometimes they'll take your passport. But I don't know, like really violent criminals don't get bail. Like that's, I feel like everybody gets bail.

Yeah. So I guess dog bounty hunter will not be involved here because there is no bail. We'll see what happens next and they're going to appeal the decision. But hopefully that does not yield the result that they want. OK, so you get arrested. Who are you calling to? And let's say geography, like let's say you're in New York or whatever, like or like it's not about location. It's not about location. Like it's the middle of the night. You get your phone call. You need someone to come down six in the morning and bail you out. Who are you calling?

I mean, technically I would call my husband. Yeah, yeah. Like, what am I doing out in the middle of the night? So true. Arrested. Okay. Who would you call? Yeah, I would call Ben. Right? Yeah. I'm not going to inconvenience any of you. I've done something wrong. I'm not proud. She's ashamed. Okay. Hiding heads on my husband. Okay. That's fair.

- Are you ready for our next story? - Not me like making a competition. Like who are you gonna call? - I know you wanted me to say you, but like do you even want me to call you in the middle of the night to come down to the station?

Don't wake me up. Don't wake me up. And like Chris Brown is disgusting and I will never support. And it's like really crazy. I ended up on Chris Brown talk a couple of weeks ago. Like he plays these huge arenas. Like he has millions of fans. I'm not one of them, but I'm holding space for two truths. Don't wake me up by Chris Brown is one of the best songs ever made. Yeah. I don't make the rules. And it always reminds me of come wake me up by rascal flats, which is also an amazing song.

I mean, everything by Rascal Flatts is an amazing song. I am having a Rascal Flatts renaissance. Like two mornings in a row, I got ready to Rascal Flatts. And obviously when we think of Rascal Flatts, we think of the hits, right? Life is a Highway, Bless the Broken Road. And I've always liked their less popular songs more. But I'm having a renaissance with a couple of really random songs. Tell me what's better than How They Remember You by Rascal Flatts. Hmm. Piracy. Nothing. Nothing.

Nothing. And then, oh my god, today I was listening to that song. They low-key covered a lot of sensitive topics in their songs. Obviously, Sarah Beth is scared to death the song about cancer. I forgot they also have a song about trigger warning, suicide. They, um, it must have been, and I was literally crying. It was like, it's really beautiful. It must have been a place so dark you couldn't see it. Like, seriously chilling.

Then there's Here Comes Goodbye. Really, really tough. Like they're covering heavy subjects. They are everything.

- We are on Rascal Flatts watch and as soon as we know what that big post was about, like you will hear it first from us. - What am I doing? - We're kind of like the breaking news source. - Jackie, what am I doing? - Every time something happens in the world, people are like, do a breaking, like a toast emergency podcast. Like no, not unless Rascal Flatts announces a reunion tour, are we doing a toast emergency podcast? - Jackie, what am I doing? - Watching out for Rascal Flatts' announcement. - Exactly.

Our next story, Danny Amendola might have someone to call in the middle of the night if he gets arrested because Zandra Pohl is fueling the Danny Amendola dating runers at the Dancing with the Stars taping. So as the official Zandra and Danny watch podcast. Yeah.

The Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Zandra fueled speculation that she's dating NFL star Danny Amendola by attending the Dancing with the Stars season 33 premiere to support his debut as a celebrity contestant. During the episode, she was spotted sitting in the audience next to Danny's mom, Rose. At one point, she's...

The 23 year old smiled wide as she applauded one of the dance performances. Just a reminder, Danny is 38. This is not the first time they've sparked cheating rumors. Yeah, we just need to just put that in context. Back in June, they were photographed sitting together at Tom Brady's Patriots Hall of Fame induction at Gillette Stadium.

So if you are a Zandra watchdog like I am, before she was even on screen at Dancing with the Stars, we knew she was there because when you live in Dancing, I mean, when you are on Dancing with the Stars, you have to live in this apartment complex. And it's like very recognizable to anyone who is familiar with the show because a lot of the people like do Instagram content from there. You just know it looks, it's like a very...

recognizable look. And Zandra went to LA a couple days ago, so you know when you're a TikToker like that, you make vlogs about everything. So we knew she traveled because she made her travel vlog. And then she's making her regular content about food, she's trying Erewhon, and she's clearly in a Dancing with the Stars apartment.

So we knew. Are they nice? They're like classic, like modern apartments. You look like model homes kind of. They're like classic high rise apartments. Do you think that's like a romantic nice place for a new relationship or somewhere where your relationship like goes to die? Well, I think it depends, right? Danny Amendola is independently wealthy, as is Zandra. They're used to the finer things in life. Yes, I do think this apartment is a step down for them.

I think, you know, Anna Delvey, who spent time in prison and then lives in like a scary apartment. I think this apartment is fabulous. And I want to talk about Anna Delvey, right? Everybody's like, Anna Delvey, I danced with the star. Did you see they made a sequin ankle monitor? Her ankle monitor matches her outfit. Why is she wearing an ankle monitor? She's on probation. Right. Okay. No, you're on house arrest when you wear an ankle monitor. And she wore it all through her house arrest. She lives in LA now. She's not home. Wouldn't her monitor be going off the whole time? So you think it's fake? Yeah.

I don't know, but like, why is she wearing a monitor? You don't wear a monitor when you're on probation, do you? I have no idea. It's for house arrest and she's not home. Arrest her. Okay.

Or she's wearing an ankle monitor, a fake one, to get people talking. And it's a bit. I think it's for schtick. And in which case, I'm so over the schtick in general. And now knowing that it's not even a functional ankle monitor. It's such a funny schtick to be a criminal comm woman. Ha, ha, ha. Yeah. Get people's money. I'm laughing so hard. Right. And Anna Delvey stole from big banks and stuff. So nobody really cared. But if she had stolen from people's retirement funds, teachers' pensions and things,

We would be singing a different tune. A crime is a crime, bitch. And she stole from her friends who were like working in hotels and were just trying to get by. She stole thousands to go like to Morocco. Oh yeah. From that girl, Rachel. Yeah. That honestly. Theft is theft. I agree. I agree.

And so I am not like keeping up with Dancing with the Stars, but like I'm not voting. And if I was, I wouldn't be voting for her. Coming out of Dancing with the Stars, there was a lot of news last night. Apparently like Pommel Horse Steven is obviously going to win. Like he was the best. Oh, really? Yeah. Well, how did Danny dance?

He danced pretty good, actually. People really liked him and he can move. So that's like half the battle. But also to be a man celebrity on Dancing with the Stars, like to be the star and you're a man requires way less effort to get better scores. Like those types of ballroom dancing, like the woman is the fixture, right? Like and the man just sort of carries physically the girl. It's easier. Like you have to do less as a man to get a better score. But I think like it's easier to be a woman dancing. Yeah.

Like, I don't know about that. I think it is. Well, Pommel Horse Steven did really well. Danny did really well. Phaedra did really well, which I don't think people were surprised by, but I was really happy to see. I love Phaedra. I'm really rooting for her. Oh, that's so great. So it looks like Xandra and Danny are dating and as the official, like, you know. I'm so happy. You are? You ship? I don't ship. It's not that I ship. Like, obviously him being 38 and her 23, like, is concerning for sure. It's giving no frontal lobe. Yeah.

The reason, and what I've always said when we talk about Sandra is like, I just want good things for her. I feel like she is always being compared to Alex and like she carved out this one little place for herself and she was doing Sports Illustrated and it was amazing. Boom, Alex does Sports Illustrated and she gets the cover. It's like,

I fear that Zandra like constantly is living in the shadow of Alex and people always wondering like what happened between them? And the internet very much took Alex aside. They said like Zandra's a mean girl, even though the internet didn't even know what happened. They've never actually said what happened. So I just feel like I want Zandra to have something for herself. You know, I thought it was Sports Illustrated. It wasn't. Yeah, but she could have like any boyfriend. Yeah, and I like this one, like in terms of fame level. I don't like it enough. Yeah, and I think what we learned from...

Olivia Culpo was like, Danny Amendola is like maybe not like the best guy. Maybe not the best boyfriend. He cheated on her. Yeah. So there's that, of course. There's the age gap. There's also the fact that he's like, aside from dancing for a living, he's not working in as a football player anymore. Like she's on her way. Like, I just think,

I think the timing's not great. I agree. He's like unemployed. There was a time where she was rumored to be linked to a Kansas City Chiefs player and there was seriously one piece of evidence. They went on a roller coaster together at like a Six Flags and there was a picture of them sitting next to each other on the, like when the roller coaster takes a picture of you. Yeah, yeah. And that was it. And I, when I heard that, I was so excited because it's like, okay, obviously Zandra, like everything she gets, Alex gets bigger and better. But like,

you know, Braxton like plays on the Dolphins and this guy plays on the Chiefs and the Chiefs are obviously like this hot young thing right now. So I was like, okay, maybe she could get one thing over Alex. Like, you know, not me pitting these two girls against each other when I'm sure they don't even think about each other. But that's not true. They do. So I liked that. I liked when she was having a moment with the Chiefs. Like that's exciting. Maybe she would be in the box with Taylor. Like that's, that's fun.

Yeah, well, that's not what's happening here. I know. No, the more I talk and think about it, like Danny Amendola is like- She's at like a Hall of Fame ceremonies, retiring ceremony. It's giving retirement, yeah. AARP. She's 23 years old. Yeah, it's giving grandpa for sure. I don't like it. You definitely like made me see it differently. I kind of forgot that Danny Amendola, like she's not going to games. No, she's not going to games. And like, what's the point in dating an athlete if you're not- She's going to alumni conventions. Yeah, yeah. She's going to physical therapy.

So I just want more for her. I agree. At least now she's dancing with the stars and she's on TV. But like, yeah, Latouge, Latouge. Maybe when Danny gets eliminated, like it's time to break up. When he gets eliminated from the show, he also gets eliminated from her heart. He's dancing for his life. It's so much more than a dance competition. Like his life is on the line.

And if he gets the mirror ball trophy, she gives him an extra six months. Yeah, because then he'll be doing press and stuff. And so it gives like the relationship a little bit more life. But I agree. I need her to date someone like a little bit more relevant. Maybe add her to our list. Is there anyone on our list? We need to break it up into two lists. I know, our list, this list sucks. No, it's just there's like men on this list like Xander and Bill Hader. I don't think so. Honestly? No, I'm kidding. Okay.

He's much older. I don't even know. The list is just a mess. I know. The list is a mess. The list needs a reorg. It does. We need like subsets based on gender. And there are people on that list. And based on age. And also based on eligibility. Half those people are not even single. We just keep them on because they're not married. And also like based on status. Oh, yeah. Like it needs to be ranked in order like a famous to least famous because they're a glamorous celebrity on there. Number one.

Yeah, like Harry Styles shouldn't be the same as like Noah Centennial. Agreed. Zandra and Shaq. My work is done. Zandra and Shaq. I love it. Even though he's seriously 40 years older than her. Yeah. Shaq and Khloe, I'll never give it up. Never gonna give you up. Literally. Never gonna give you down. Classic Kayla. Never gonna give you up. Never gonna give you down. She added like a little riff too.

Pargy. Pargy. I'm so happy for Zandra. Just like being on TV, you know? Yeah. Yeah. And being like, talked about. I want a W for her. She looked really beautiful on TV. She is. She's a timeless beauty. Yeah, but I felt like she was looking like very natural glam. Yeah, I agree. Very much like sitting with my boyfriend's mom look. Yeah, it's giving Donna and Taylor in a smaller capacity. Yes, it is. You know?

Are you ready for our next story? Number four? Number three. Oh. Yeah. Really? Okay. We're chugging along slowly today. I like it. I got nowhere to be. Except I got to go see that new office space. Woffice space. But I have time. Sometimes a Long Island just creeps out. It happens to me all the time. It happened to me the other day. I was like...

Put it away. Yeah, I was like, we're going out. No, I don't even remember what I said, but it really just sort of creeps up. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Snuck out. Whack-a-mole. Are you ready for our next story? Mm-hmm. Pharrell Williams did an interview with The Hollywood Reporter and has some things to say about celebrities who endorse political candidates.

So Pharrell wants celebs to zip it when it comes to politics. He told the Hollywood Reporter, I don't do politics. In fact, I get annoyed sometimes when I see celebrities trying to tell you who to vote for. There are celebrities that I respect that have an opinion, but not all of them. I'm one of them people who says, what the heck? Shut up. Nobody asked you. I do think a lot of like lay people say that when celebrities give their opinions. This is what I was thinking. And I have a thought like on celebrity endorsements that I'll get into, but it's like,

Everybody hates celebrity endorsers until they endorse the person that they like. I feel like it's half and half. If a celebrity you like is endorsing someone you like, you're like, thank you for using your platform. This is so important. But if a celebrity endorses someone you don't like, you're like, well, what do celebrities know anyway? They didn't even go to college. Like...

Well, he didn't endorse anyone in this. He said when people get out there and get self-righteous and they roll up their sleeves and shit and they're out there walking around with a placard, it's like, shut up. This is an interesting take. I feel like we don't get this a lot from actual celebrities. We get it more from like people. But I do think he has like a pretty decent point. I think that's how a lot of people feel when celebrities make political endorsements, mostly because like the level, the way that celebrities live, like,

is not akin to the way that most people live. So like when they're going to tell you who to vote for, it's like, you don't know my life. You don't know my struggles. Like we are very different and we're all very different as people. And I think that's why it's politics used to be like a very personal thing. I just also think like the concept of telling someone who to vote for feels so odd to me. And I feel like it, like it's this almost awkward, like unethical line because everybody, and no matter who,

you know, people might lie and say that they don't, but everybody's voting for their own self-interest, right? Whether you're like a woman, whether you're a Jew, whether you're black, like you're looking for your, like who's looking out for your best interest, right? Right. And so to be told who to vote for, I've always found it's like a little icky. And it's like, if you're going to share who you're voting for, it's like, okay. But if you're going to like say that this is the right one, you know,

And especially if you're a celebrity who lives so disconnected from how normal people, everyone has their issues. If you're voting because you want to buy a house or you can't pay your bills or whatever your issue of choice is,

Those don't really apply to celebrities, right? So it does feel, I get what he's saying, but then there's the other side of the coin. And I feel like people will just say one of these two things based on what their personal political preference is. But there is the other thing. It's like you feel so passionate, right? So even a celebrity, they might come off out of touch and who cares? You don't know what it's like down here.

There is that also like this person feels this calling almost to use their platform. Yeah, they feel like they're saving the world. Yeah, so, but again, I think you're just going to say one of those two things based on if you agree with what that person's saying, right? Right, but I think if you look at it like as a whole, not talk about like one person or another, and I think this is something that we felt really frustrated on for like years now in...

the celebrity entertainment world is that it does become like so political. And it's our philosophy in general that like those things should stay apolitical. Like for most of time they were and like only recently has everything become, like it just makes everything so polarizing. And I think as a general rule, like it's not like, oh, when one person does it or another person does it, you don't like it. But like as a general rule,

It's a good one. Yeah, because it's like something should be fun and like not so serious all the time. Like life is hard. I think any person who's grown up and who's just trying to like either feed their family, pay their bills, get a job, go to college, like it's hard, right? And so there should be things that we can enjoy that are fun and light and for moments just let us

Forget and I feel like for so long celebrities pop culture was that and it definitely has gotten really tangled. And I also think it's like a case by case like with the with who's like who the celebrity is like, do you hate the celebrity? Yeah, but also like a case by case based on who the celebrity is like some celebrities are like really stupid, right? But and like other celebrities like are smarter, more educated or just like more well thought out and some of them are just like

are not that, you know? Right. So I think this is obviously coming on the heels of the Taylor endorsement, which I also think is different because some celebrities could endorse and it doesn't move the needle, right? Like, okay, and who cares? Taylor, there's a difference between being like a famous person and being an influential person. Yeah.

And so I think that's why there were all these eyes on Taylor. Cause I think she does move the needle and people really do care what she thinks. I think he's obviously was asked this question, like, because now it's being spoken about. Well, I think also like everybody's jumping in to them. Like, yes, it gets on Taylor. Cause when she does something, she's the biggest person to do it. But like, everybody's doing it. It's, it's the season. I'm sure that the Hollywood reporter like wanted him to give his take on politics. And instead he said this.

- Right, oh yeah. - Which is an interesting take. - It's a take and it's kind of not a take we hear a lot and I think a lot of people would say, well you're saying this from a point of privilege. But you know, Pharrell is a black man. Like he, this is his point of view. - But I think every celebrity who's giving their opinion on politics is saying it from a point of privilege. Like the privilege is there. - I'm curious like, you know, people who are celebrity obsessed, pop culture obsessed, people who listen to the show, like do you prefer that your celebrities share their politics or you prefer that they don't? - Yeah, that's a good question.

it just depends on what your politics are, right? Because there are like 1% of celebrities who are Republican and the rest are Democrats. So if you're a Democrat, you love it. But if you're a Republican, you don't, right? That's like the thing, that's like the unspoken thing. Right, right. They're like, I can literally count on, it's like Kid Rock. No, in this article, at the bottom, it's like all the celebrities who have endorsed Kamala. And then for the ones who are endorsed Trump, it's like Savannah Chrisley, Roseanne, Kid Rock, Hulk Hogan, Elon Musk.

Right. So I think at the end of the day, your take on this, as it pertains to celebrities, is really going to be colored by your political preference. Because if you love Kamala, you love that your favorite celebs love her too. Yeah. If you love Trump, it's hard because everybody's disagreeing with you. So at the end of the day, this conversation really is mute. It really just depends on your preference. Right. So if we could roll it back...

and make it so that it was an apolitical sphere, I think that would be nice for everyone. Right. But that's not where we're at. No, it's not. However, it does feel like, and I saw in like, Pharrell got some heat for this and then people were saying in 2016, like he endorsed Hillary. So it actually feels like he's walking back on that. His endorsement. Of having once like gotten into politics and now being like celebrity should stay out of it. Right, it's not like he's never gotten involved. Maybe the pendulum is like swinging a little bit.

Yeah. Of people realizing, hey, we, like, stepped into this thing and it's gotten really messy. Like, maybe... I just feel... I guess in the party... ...we're just, like, facing our songs. The party of fun, you know? It's like, why can't some things just be fun? Yeah. We're trying. Desperately. Yeah. So...

That's that on that. - That's what Pharrell's up to. I haven't heard from Pharrell in a while. I feel like he doesn't do interviews. - I was watching something about Pharrell recently. What was it? - I think your husband loves Pharrell. - Yeah, Pharrell, he was singing a music video or something. Maybe a documentary. Oh, we were talking about his documentary's gonna be in Legos. Classic Pharrell. - Classic Pharrell, I guess. - Are you ready for our next story? I guess it's like Legos adjacent.

Sure. Okay. Margot Robbie and her husband Tom Ackerley are set to produce The Sims movie as they aim to have an impact similar to her hit Barbie. So six months after it was first reported that Margot Robbie and her husband Tom Ackerley were producing The Sims movie, the news has been confirmed. EA, the company that has published the long-running video game franchise, formally announced the project on Tuesday. Okay.

They are both producing through their Lucky Chat production company and Kate Herron will set to direct the film. The Sims world is like a part, a core part of millennial childhood that completely bypassed us. I have never played Sims in my life. I don't even know what the hell it is, but it's like a part of culture. The way people talk, oh, you look like a Sims. Like it's so big. I guess because it's like the simulation. Yeah.

And I think that actually this is going to be an amazing movie. If done right. Well, Margot Robbie is a track record of doing it right. Living in a simulation. Right. Which is also very relevant. Yeah. Do you think we're living in a simulation? Yeah.

No, I think like not to be like lame, but I think like believing you living in a simulation like goes against God. I do think that. No, I believe Hashem is not simulating this. I believe we live in God's version of a simulation like and he's the only one playing the game. Like, but he also gives us free will to make choices, but he knows what choices we're going to make. Right. So yeah, it's definitely like an atheist thing. Yeah, no, no. I think if you like not to sound so like, like faith, Bible-y. Yeah.

but like if you really believe in God, you can't believe we're living in a simulation. Yeah. Like how would you explain? Now say 10 Hail Marys. How would you explain Yellowstone? Like that's not a simulation. That's the beauty of God.

Yeah, oh, for sure. Oh, I thought you were going to say, how can you explain simulation if we're, how can you explain Yellowstone if we're not living in a sim, if we are, whatever. Yeah, of course. There are certain things that are so- Like, look around. The birds chirping. Even something as small as an apple is simple and somehow complex. Exactly. Like, that's not Sims. Sorry. Not even that. Not even if you believe in God. If you believe in science-

You can't believe we're living in a simulation because I think a lot of the things that we think of like as something even as small as an apple is other people would see it as like science and nature. We see it as God. We see it as God invented science. Yeah. Yeah. You know what I mean? Like, I don't think that you can believe we're living in a simulation if you believe in science, if you believe in nature, if you believe in God and the people who think we're living in a simulation. And I said to the Lord unto thee.

There shall be simulation. The people who think we're living in a simulation, like who's controlling the simulation? Okay, I also have a hot take. Ready? And it's not even hot. People who like talk about simulations, like we're living in a simulation, like you're not funny, interesting, or cool. Talk about something new. It's stupid and we're obviously not living in a simulation. Like why don't you like go be original and think of something funny to say that's not about simulations. And go then cook it in your crock pot liner. No, I think seriously when people are like,

And we're not living in a simulation. Like, shut up. It's giving moist. No, and it's, yeah, when something crazy happens, it's like you can't think of anything intellectually interesting to say. So you say, we're living in a simulation. Yeah, no, it's like literally just an earthquake. There's an actual scientific reason for why it happened. Not a glitch in the matrix. Yeah. Like, I just, I hate that sort of dumb humor, honestly. Well, anyways, The Sims movie is coming, it's coming at you. Yeah.

I'm not like highly anticipated for it, but I do know that there are people that are. Like some people's childhoods are like defined by Sims. I could see the aesthetic of this movie like being very like kind of like almost Stepford Wives-y, like robots on a street, like cat in the hat, every house is the same. Like hi, hi. And then something like blows up the Sims. No, and there's like a woman who like lives in one of the houses and one day she like defects. Yeah, yeah. And that's...

played by Margot Robbie. And I would see that 100%. I love the metaphor to Stepford Wives, that comparison, I love. I would see it one year after it comes out, 100%. Yeah, of course. We're almost due to see It Ends With Us. We'll see it in a couple of months. Did you see that It Ends With Us

like has broken the record for the biggest box office for a mid-size movie. Like it's not a blockbuster movie. But they made over like $300 million. No, the movie was incredibly successful. And Justin Baldoni being like a, not a first time director, but a very inexperienced director, having a movie cross that kind of,

sale line is huge. Like he's going to become a huge director because of it. Like that's a major accomplishment for him. I feel like I did that. Okay. Not to like sound crazy. Didn't see the movie, clowned on him for months. I did that shit.

Do you feel, and correct me if I'm wrong, do you feel like I started the Justin Baldoni stuff? Like people were whispering about it. And there was a couple of TikToks that really made it like major. But I feel like I played a major part in that conversation. For me, in my world, like in my life, yes.

But no, I'm saying in a landscape of culture. Like am I patting myself on the back too much? Because I really feel like- I can't say because it only came to me through you. So you started it for me, yes. But I don't know how much it was out there before. And maybe like us talking about it, like maybe you saw these niche rabbit holes, but like we have this like massive global audience and us like putting a spotlight on it. Like, I'm sorry, Blake. I thought we were helping. We tried. Yeah.

Like we actually like didn't even come into it trying to help. Like we actually had our preconceived notions about her. But the more that we saw and the more she like it really was becoming so wronged, the more we tried to help. And I think the more we hurt the situation. I completely agree. Like I majorly we stepped in it and I apologize. I'm sorry. Everyone that we root for, like everyone hates. And that's my God. It's so true.

Like we're always somehow on the- - Choosing the wrong side. - Choosing the wrong side in terms of popular opinion, but not in terms of ethics. And I stand by that. - We're hella ethical.

Our fifth and final story, a news story that has captured the world. An eight-year-old girl takes her mother's car on a 25-minute joyride to Target. Literally, literally.

If you thought Margo motivated you to start driving, this eight-year-old girl. When I saw this, an eight-year-old girl drove 25 minutes. Did you feel shame? And she only hit one mailbox on her way to Target. She parked in the parking lot and then got a Frappuccino. Like, I've not even treated myself to such an indulgence. No, the parking was actually really what impressed me. Because those parking... The only accident I've actually ever gotten into was in a...

supermarket parking lot. Like it wasn't even a crazy parking lot. I just felt very nervous. - There was a lot going on. It was like a beach town. - Jackie was there. Jackie was playing shower by Becky G, like being loud and in a way making Snapchat videos, yeah. - I mean, there's all sorts of threats on the road and you have to be aware for all of them. - So true. ♪ Dancing in the mirror ♪ ♪ Singing in the shower ♪ ♪ La da dee la da da ♪ ♪ La da da ♪

So an eight-year-old Ohio girl is home safe after she took her mother's car. An eight-year-old Ohio queen. After she took her mother's car and drove to Target 25 minutes away as her family and police searched for her. According to the Bedford Police Department service report obtained by Today.com, officers responded to a 911 call on September 15th just before 9 a.m. after the family discovered the girl was missing. They reported that the eight-year-old was last seen by the family nearly two hours earlier.

So they posted to their Facebook, the police department. Well, I finally found a woman who's in more of a hurry to shop at Target than my wife. More of a hurry by eight years. That's right. An eight-year-old took mommy's car this morning and drove to Target in Bainbridge to shop. Thankfully, she made it and was immediately located by Bainbridge police. She's now home safe. Not sure what she bought or if she was even able to use her Target app to save 5%. We did let her finish her frappuccino. We're not mean.

These like local police department social media accounts like always have like a sassy tone. No and you like and you know they didn't know that this was about to become like the biggest story in the country. Everyone is talking about this because obviously like it's extremely relatable. Like everybody just wants to go to Target. And you know what? I didn't even realize like the scary part of this. Like her family must have been so relieved. Like your child goes missing. That's like every parent's worst fucking nightmare. Right. And the car was missing.

So no, but someone could have taken the car and the kid. Your logical assumption is not that she drove. Unless like, you know something about her and she's been asking to drive for a while. She's like, are you even starting them young? Yeah. She got like halfway to the car. She grabs the keys. So many questions. I actually do think like we need an interview. If Ellen were around, like she would be interviewing this girl. And that's definitely a loss for society because agreed to know, like, how did she know how to get there? 25 minutes away. Like, did she put it into navigation? So true.

Or had she had it down pat? Like, is she kind of a genius? Now, my thought was also, you're telling me like, I can't drive three minutes in this city without getting a ticket. This queen was able to drive 25 minutes, like undetected. She probably couldn't even see over the steering wheel and not get pulled over. Like, this is actually a very poor reflection on the traffic department of this police department. Yeah, the police department that's having their moment. It's like, well,

Well, now we're asking questions. But it also makes me curious, like, what skilled level of driver she was. I'm finally finishing this book that I'm reading, Bad Therapy, and towards the end they're talking about how, like, in different cultures, they give kids, like, tasks to do on their own independently from a very young age, and it's, like, really good for children developing, like, confidence, independence, and overall that's good for their mental health, and how, like, in Japan they'll send a three-year-old to the supermarket half a mile away with a shopping list, like, and...

and like as a one, I'm in a series called Netflix called like Old Enough. And there are these like,

things that they do to like acclimate their children to society eight-year-olds like take the bus in Japan and they all like you'll see groups of kids in Japan like doing things together and it's like really good for them to become like functioning adults taking the bus is in America like they're delaying getting their license they don't want to go to college they can't function when they get there and it's like actually doing small not small actually big things where you feel like you have agency over your life like this girl is going to grow up to be

the president of the United States, like the way that she has agency over her life. She probably felt so accomplished, not saying that anyone should do this or that I would ever, but like,

This is Queenie behavior. This is someone who's ready to get after it. - I'm in agreement that it's definitely Queenie behavior. So many things could have gone wrong. And I'm so glad that she's safe, like from, you know, she wasn't abducted and that she actually made it and she didn't crash. Like so many things could have gone wrong. Somebody could have seen her alone at Target, scooped her right up. So I have a pit for like the potential of what could have gone wrong. - Yeah, they could have scooped her.

It's such a crazy story. I have so many questions and you're right. We need a sit down interview with this girl. I'm sure she'll be like with Hoda. What kind of car it was, because that sounds like a pretty easy car for like a small person to drive myself. Like I just am. I'm very curious about the logistics. Toyota Camry sales just went way up. Where is.

In the parking lot, did she park? Did she not park between two cars? That's a classic move of a novice driver. Yeah, or maybe it was just like a really empty parking lot. Or she kind of like ditched the car. Right, like she was done with it. Like she got to her destination. She like left it running. Is there even a photo of the girl? No, I haven't seen anything. I'm having a hard time visualizing. I need to see what she looks like. That would be immensely helpful. Maybe she's like a big eight.

You know? Right. Right. She could be my size, like five foot at eight. She could. Right? It would be crazy, but anything's possible. Or she could be a small like eight and she'd bring her booster seat. Maybe she did throw like her booster seat. But then how would her feet reach? Yeah. I also sometimes see videos of kids and it's like other countries where like they literally drive and they drive at like eight years old.

And that also gives me inspiration. Like if they can do it, they're driving on the highway, like I can do this. - You can. - And I shall. - There's no way that this girl had to drive on the highway. Like there's no way she would have been able to figure out exits. - I don't think she had to. And I don't think that that would, like your local target usually don't need to get on the highway. - Where does she live?

In Bedford, Ohio, she was at the Bainbridge Target. Is that your local Target? Grab the security footage. Yeah, literally. I'm not super familiar with like the typography, geography of Ohio. So I'm not sure if you have to take a highway, but I have to imagine that she didn't. No, I feel like you should be able to get to your Target without the highway in general, right? No. In suburbia? Like, no. No.

Like when you take one exit off the highway, like it's not a big deal. I guess. Maybe you can take the back roads. Maybe she did MapQuest, no highways. MapQuest? What are you, 100? Well, she had to get the directions and you could do no highways. You could also do it on Tesla. You could do it on any app. Maybe she did self-drive on Tesla. You know, I was thinking that too. But...

I don't think so because you want to know what, if it was, that would be in the article because anytime a Tesla does anything wrong or someone in a Tesla gets in an accident, it is always in the story that it was a Tesla. It's like, thanks, but I don't care about the Toyota Corolla getting in an accident.

- Well, 'cause they're not safest cars on the road. No, I'm kidding. - Yeah, like every car gets into accidents, but when it's a Tesla, they always tell you because they're trying to take down Tesla. - No, and they're like the new hot thing that are supposed to be better and different. - Yeah, they're trying to take down Tesla even though they want us all to be driving electric cars, make it make sense.

Okay, Zach from Secret Lives.

I told my fiance that he was being ridiculous. Am I in the wrong? Should I get out of this league that I already committed to? Sincerely, a confused and annoyed toaster. No, no, you're literally being gaslit. There's nothing weird about this. Is it a nude fantasy league? Like, no. No, and you already, you work with all men. It's not like you went over to the men's corner and you only hang out with the men in the office. Like, this is just the demographic of the office.

I feel like it speaks to like serious insecurities within him and points to like larger issues down the road that he either needs to nip in the bud and get a hold of, but this is not something that you should give on because that sets the stage for like going forward, that this is how things are going to be. And,

You need to put your foot down now before like things get worse and you do get married. This is one of these like really hard situations where I just want to like press that button, break up. I know. Like technically he didn't do anything crazy, right? Like you're not in danger. This to me is so deal breaker worthy. Like I hate this man. That's really crazy. That's giving possessive. That's giving narcissist. Like it's, you're right. It's so Zach.

from Secret Lives and Mormon Lives, which is like the worst comparison. If anybody ever compared my husband to Zach, I'd be like, get out of here. Yeah. But you know, if everything else that he does in his life and in the day is perfect, then like, this is a man that you should make it work with. He had one, like, I'm in a, like, I feel like as I get older and we do these. You're in a make it work phase. Yeah. I'm in the,

I just, I feel like that's growing up is realizing like human beings are complex. It's never going to be perfect. And like, if you love someone and you have this shared values, which I you're engaged, like I'm assuming that you have these like important things in common. And yes, if this were an issue that continued to get worse until he's Zach from secret lives of Mormon wives, like I, I'm, I too would, would lean for that button. But before that button, like I really think that things are workable. Yeah, of course. But now let me ask you a question. Dear reader is, um,

your husband likes Zach from Sex Lives of Mormon Wives in other ways or is this like the first time he's ever really resembled him yeah and maybe like he thought it was like cool and macho to say this but the minute you put him in his place he's gonna go with his tail between his legs like oh sorry Marisado yeah what's his

really like so that's why I'm not quick to hit the button but I do think you put your foot down now so that this is not a precedent that you set in your marriage she's 100% right because if that's not the kind of marriage that you want then you need to make sure that's not the kind of marriage that you will have precedent is everything here Swirly precedent is everything

All right, next up. Hey, Jackson Turdy. Love you guys. Since last year, I have lived with my boyfriend, his sister, and her boyfriend. The sister and her boyfriend were living in the master suite of the house, but a few months ago they broke up and he has since moved out. We start again. Hey, Jackson Turdy. Love you guys. You are glamorous. I just wanted to hear that. I love you too. Love you too. Since last year, I have lived with my boyfriend, his sister, and the sister's boyfriend. Okay. Okay.

The sister and her boyfriend were living in the master room, master suite of the house, but a few months ago they broke up and he has moved out. Now, me and my boyfriend have asked if we can switch rooms so we can have the master.

I am so tired of sharing a tiny bathroom, a one-person closet. She is refusing, though, and she gets mad when we bring it up. We just don't think it's fair to all pay the same amount for rent, but she gets way more room than us. Are we the crazy ones for thinking that we deserve the master? You should have never been paying the same amount of rent to begin with. A thousand percent. If one person had a bigger room than another person. Like, that's in every apartment. Even when I had an apartment with some girlfriends, like, we all paid a little bit more or less depending on who had the biggest room, who had bigger.

Better bathrooms. That's just, you set a bad precedent. I'm sorry to tell you. Of course. And that's shocking to me. That's so unfair. And I think that if she won't switch rooms with you guys, then you guys should move out.

Or you guys should start paying way less rent. And by the way, now that she's single, not to like, you know, add insult to injury, she's not able to afford more rent most likely. So being like, we have felt that this was unfair for a while. So we are prepared to leave. Yeah. Unless you want to give us the master and you shouldn't pay more for the master because she wasn't. Right, right, right, right. Because now it's even. This is very complicated. No, you need to do a proper sit down and say, we would like the master if you do not want to give it to us, like we are moving out. And that's just, that's what's,

That's on what's fair. Or, because like maybe they don't want to move, it's a pain in the ass, you say, we want the master and we want to pay the same amount that you're paying. If you are not prepared to move, we are either prepared to move out or have you start paying a third more of the rent. You have a much bigger room, square footage wise, you have a bigger bathroom, bigger closet. Like you in any realistic, any realistic person would say that the master bedroom versus a regular guest room gets separate rents. And be prepared to walk. Yeah.

You've got to have to be prepared to walk away. Yeah. I feel like that's like what they say is like key to negotiation. Yes. The person who's able to walk away has the power. I am not a good negotiator, but I am always prepared to walk. So maybe I am. That's true. You know, I'm definitely always prepared to sit. Not these days with your cocks. Yeah.

So true. I feel bad for you. Like this sucks. Yeah, but you kind of got yourself into a bad situation. But I understand sometimes when you're the girlfriend, like you just want to like get along. Oh yeah, well now we can live with your sister. But you've gotten yourself to a bad place. All being the yes man, look where it got you. Yeah, agreed. All right, our third and final. Hey Swirly, it's Huge Toaster here with a huge dilemma. I've been dating my boyfriend for five years and things are great except I have a slight problem with his mother. Every time we go out to dinner with his family, his mom tells the waiter that it's my birthday. Okay.

At the beginning, I understood she was trying to be funny, but anyone who knows me well knows that I hate attention. So I just find it odd that she's still doing this five years in. I also feel weird scamming these restaurants for a free dessert when we have plenty of money and we don't need to do something like this. Should I do something about it or should I just put up with how uncomfortable it makes me feel? Please help a girl out. This is a nightmare. Nightmare. It's also like a really weird thing, like personality-wise for your mother, a lot of me doing like, she should be embarrassed. I agree with all of your reasonings and...

I almost think though, like asking her to stop, like makes it even more weird, you know? Cause it's like, it makes you look like a baby almost, but you're a hundred percent right. Yeah. Your husband has to say something. Yeah. Or she should do it. Or like your boyfriend should say something. And if she really needs to get like a free cake at every meal, like have it be your boyfriend's birthday. To me, I think the worst part is like sitting there while people sing happy birthday to me. It's hard enough when it's your actual birthday, but at least like you're working on your wish. Like you're, you're feeling excited. It's once a year. You're trying to be grateful. Um, I'll,

Also, how often are you going to dinner with her? But say it's even a couple times a year at minimum. Like that's too many times. There's a reason why it's only once a year. No, that's like really low key lame of this lady. Like she needs hobbies. This is so illusory. And you know what? If it bothers you, like normalize speaking out against things that make you uncomfortable. Okay. But like she's still the girlfriend, Claudia. What have we learned? Like I feel like you have to behave. I like the idea of you telling the waiter, like, listen, my mother-in-law, like she has a bad memory. It's not my birthday. Like, don't worry about the cake.

She's got the old dementia. And then she's like sitting there anticipating it. And then you guys just walk out. Crazy gran again. I love that. Yeah. No, I like hate this for you. You're right. The idea of sitting even on your real birthday is like uncomfortable. Even if you like attention, which I do, like it's always like everyone like, Hey, stop.

And now like going through that, knowing you're scamming this restaurant, it's not your birthday. You kind of hate your future mother-in-law. Like there's a lot more for you to think about in that awkward moment. So you're totally justified in disliking it. Jackie's take of like you being the girlfriend and just putting up with it is valid, but like five years, like also where's your ring? Yeah. You need to get engaged unless you're like against, not against, but like you don't want to get married and you're happy being a girlfriend forever. Um,

Or unless you guys are like 19, but... Right. Been together since we were 14. 12. Yeah, I guess barring those exceptions, but I think like, you know, the majority is like... Right. If you get engaged, this would solve your problem. I don't know. I think you keep a lid on it till you're the wife. You know what I mean. No, I'm saying if you become... Like if you focus all your energy now, not on the cake, but on getting engaged...

The cake thing would remedy itself. Then by the time you're married, you could take the cake and throw it at the wall. Correct. Yeah. Don't do that. And someone has to clean it up.
