Rhiann
Guys, I'm so excited. Happy the life of Showgirl Day to everybody at home. We have not listened yet, obviously, because it's not out yet when we're recording this, but my God, I'm so excited. I can't wait to listen. I just. The thrill of a Taylor Swift album. It's like a thrill unlike any other when people release music. I can't wait to go through my first listen and then, you know, we'll have to share some stuff about it on social or something before. Yeah, we'll be off next week.
Fran
Right. But love getting to find out what the lyrics mean because people are much better than us putting things together. Oh, she's talking about this. She's talking about that person. Yep. Very excited for all that.
Noah
Well, Travis's name be mentioned in the entire album.
Rhiann
Like a Travis by name?
Fran
No, I don't believe so.
Rhiann
I'm gonna say no. Could be wrong, but I'm gonna say no.
Fran
I agree with that. I think a lot of things she.
Rhiann
Ran does name people by names. And if she does. And like sometimes people get fake names, you know.
Noah
Also there was recorded before they're engaged, so.
Rhiann
Yeah. Yeah. But even then, right?
Fran
I don't. I don't think his name.
Rhiann
I don't think so. I don't think so. But we'll be able to. I think we'll be able to.
Fran
Like that would. That would. I don't know. I think that would be a Travis.
Rhiann
So Travis. Yeah.
Fran
Everyone would be like, all right.
Rhiann
That was, like the. What was I, Olivia Rodrigo song. Lucy. Yeah, that's what I was singing it, too. To the tune.
Fran
Lacy.
Rhiann
Lacy.
Fran
Yeah. Lacy. She should do it.
Noah
RI Grande. Did just name a song, like Pete Davidson. Name it. Just Travis Kelsey.
Rhiann
True.
Fran
Yeah. Maybe one day. But that is very exciting. Obviously, everyone will. Will be listening at midnight when it comes out, and then we will be just dissecting everything that everyone has to offer online that obviously, they're better sleuths than we are. And finding all that out.
Rhiann
Gosh. Is it gonna. It's. I'm very.
Fran
God, I'm so excited, but so excited. It's gonna be so fun. And we have a long flight to listen to the whole album.
Rhiann
Exactly.
Fran
As much as we want.
Rhiann
Exactly.
Fran
Download a bunch of TV shows and movies.
Rhiann
Yep. Oh, God, I'm, like, so excited.
Fran
So excited. I'm actually. I actually turned my whole tune around where I mentioned how I was a little nervous for how long the flight is.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Fran
I'm actually very, very excited.
Rhiann
Are you gonna start Gilmore Girls?
Fran
No. No, it was too hot this week.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Fran
And it just.
Rhiann
The fall chill just aired today was, like, just a little crispy, and so.
Fran
I didn't feel like it was right. You know, it wasn't the right vibe, but. Gonna download some other things, and Gilmore Girls will be when I get back, but. But we did cross another thing off Noah's list. Last night. We went to Teresi for dinner, and it was so good. It was delicious.
Rhiann
So fucking good.
Fran
It was eventful. The fire alarm went off. We weren't sure if we were gonna even be able to eat there.
Rhiann
Thankfully, it was only a little bit of a detour.
Fran
Little detour. And my God, did Noah and I eat those blue cheese olives? So fast as the alarm was going off, we were like, oh, my God, what if we can't get back in? Shoving.
Noah
I almost thought about just chugging my. I'm like, we may never get back in here.
Fran
Right? You never know what's gonna happen. But.
Rhiann
But my. The food was just fantastic. Everything we had, really so delicious. Drinks were delicious. But the desserts were, like, the star of the show. I've really. I can't stop thinking about the dessert.
Fran
It was so good.
Rhiann
Oh, my God. They have an affogato that, like, it's not just, like, you know, you don't have to. With an avocado. Avocado. You pour the coffee in with the ice cream. And this Had a shaved ice, coffee flavored shaved ice on the top with the ice cream on the bottom. Oh, my. It was. I'm. I'm still thinking about. I've never seen anything like it. It was so good.
Noah
Was really good.
Fran
Honestly, something I've never seen before. Yeah. I couldn't stop thinking about before bed.
Rhiann
I was like, wow. Like a cheesecake with like an almond crust and a little cherry and an apple Danish.
Fran
Oh. Oh, my God. The apple Danish.
Rhiann
Danish, like the big apple Danish. I wish I would have taken eight of those home.
Fran
Yeah, me too.
Rhiann
Just unbelievable.
Fran
So, so, so good.
Rhiann
Our waiter was so fun. It was just a great. It was a great dinner.
Fran
It was a great dinner.
Noah
Great.
Fran
Yeah. Beautiful atmosphere, for sure.
Rhiann
It's a beautiful space. Well decorated. Yeah. Very, you know, top nothing. You love when something has a lot of hype and then it lives up to the hype.
Fran
Absolutely.
Rhiann
Nothing's better than you hear everyone ranting and raving about a restaurant and then you get to go and you're like, wow, you know what? Lived up to the hype. So it's a great. It's a great feeling because it is. It doesn't.
Fran
It's.
Rhiann
And you're a little disappointed. You build it up in your head, you know, especially in New York City.
Fran
Because a lot of the restaurants here, they get hyped up online and.
Rhiann
Yep.
Fran
You can't get in. And it's a whole thing. And then you finally get to go and you're like, what the is the hype about?
Rhiann
Exactly. And I have a good feeling that that was. That really did live up to the hype.
Fran
For sure. It did. We're hitting. We're like on a hot streak this week with that. We are, we are.
Rhiann
We are going to it to another hot spot on. On Friday night that neither of us have been to either now.
Fran
And this is like, can we say.
Rhiann
Yeah, we can say we're going to. For Charles, which we've never been to. It's hyped as one of the, you know, one, if not the best burger.
Fran
Yeah.
Rhiann
In New York.
Fran
We're on quite the food tour.
Rhiann
Yeah. We're just a couple of foodies. Yeah, we, you know, a couple of food.
Fran
We always joke around, love some good eating with security. Mike, who is the head of security at Barcelona, you've probably seen him before. If you pay attention to Barcelona things with Dave or the beach house, whatever. And you know, he's got to worry about a lot of things when he's on the road with people.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Fran
With us it's like one of these two eating next.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Fran
It's like, where are we driving them to exactly?
Rhiann
What restaurant are they going after a show? He's like, all right, so what are we hitting? Yeah, like. Or, like, the day before. He always knows when we get. When we're getting into the city. Day before. It's like, well, we have a dinner reservation. That's really the only thing we're like.
Fran
We're trying to hit all that food on.
Rhiann
He's worried about.
Fran
He's worried about people going to bars and, you know, keeping a hold of them. We're like, no, no, no, no. We're like, give us the best cuisine.
Rhiann
In this place, a delicious meal, and, like, one stiff drink.
Fran
Yes. And we're good to go.
Rhiann
And we're good to go. So. Yeah, I'm really excited for that too. I'm hungry just thinking about it. Chills. Seriously. And then we're off on Sunday to Singapore.
Fran
Yes, we are.
Rhiann
Now I know what time Noah had the flight time. Wrong. We just realized about 15 minutes ago he thought we were taking off at night, and it's not at night, so.
Fran
It's not. I was talking about the morning, and I was like, oh, I'm talking about what meals I'm gonna pack. Cause I'm like, oh, it's the morning. Like, when we get on the plane. Yeah, when we get on the plane. What meals? There's no breakfast options. It's all, you know, lunch and dinner options. But it's the morning. And he. Noah just stared into my soul. Blank stare. He's like, what do you mean it's at night? I said, no, it's not. It is quite the opposite. And he was just stunned for, like, 10 minutes.
Rhiann
Unreal. If Noah just.
Fran
No, he would have just not been on the flight. He. He would have just missed the flight.
Rhiann
Yeah, A full. And I. And then I was thinking, like, how did you. You weren't doing any of the math. Like, you know what time?
Noah
I was trying to do the math, but then I'm like, you know what? I must just be adding it wrong.
Rhiann
It's imp. Like, it would be impossible to make it. And I knew something was Singapore at that time.
Fran
I knew something was ay. When you kept saying, we're leaving Sunday night. And I was like, oh, maybe he's just, like, trying to throw people off.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Fran
And then I realized, oh, no, he actually did. It's crazy.
Noah
You never, like, corrected me or asked me, like, why are you saying Sunday night?
Rhiann
I didn' hear him say Sunday night.
Fran
He did it on the last podcast Sunday night. And I was like, oh, maybe he doesn't want to tell people we're leaving in the morning.
Noah
No, that's why when you said, oh, I'm gonna get up at 4am Tire myself out, I'm like, damn, you really want to be tired. You're just gonna spend all. You're gonna be up from 4 till we get on the flight at 9pm That's a lot. But I guess.
Fran
Yeah. Nope.
Rhiann
Nope.
Fran
Well, I'm glad we figured this out now because.
Rhiann
Solid bibs.
Fran
Really bad. If we were. If you woke up at like 10am on Sunday and we're on a flight, we'd be texting.
Rhiann
Like, we are literally taking off. We have taken off.
Fran
That would have been crazy.
Noah
And that's not an easy flight to just like, re.
Fran
No, let me tell you, the two.
Rhiann
Of us have the giant, like, giant smiles on our faces thinking about him missing the flight. You looked at him, you went, that.
Fran
Would have been crazy. I just was like, thinking about if that actually happened. It would have been.
Rhiann
Yeah, insane.
Fran
But I'm glad. I'm glad we figured it out.
Rhiann
No, it's all cleared out.
Fran
It's your trip.
Rhiann
We'll all be there on time and we're ready to. We're ready to rock on. A new place. Very excited.
Fran
A whole new continent.
Noah
Last night after dinner, though, little Buzz went home, read 130something pages of Verity, finished it.
Rhiann
Nice.
Noah
When did you stop?
Fran
I read the whole thing.
Noah
Oh, I thought you stopped midway.
Fran
No, no, you said you put it down.
Rhiann
No, she wrote it was the ending. The ending.
Fran
I think the whole book as a whole. I couldn'.
Rhiann
Stop.
Fran
It was interesting enough where I couldn't stop, but that's how I felt. I finished it and was like, I never. That disturbed me.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Fran
But then I realized I've talked about this. I was like, did I hate it or did I love it because I was so disturbed, but I couldn't stop. Right.
Rhiann
It left. Left. Such an affair.
Fran
Yeah, it did.
Noah
This might be a spoiler alert, but what, What. What do you guys.
Rhiann
Spoiler alert?
Noah
Like, was. Did she do it or did she not? Was it all fiction?
Rhiann
I don't know. I go back and forth.
Fran
Me too.
Rhiann
Like, it's. But that's why I think it's good, because it's like you're like, ooh.
Fran
Leaves you thinking.
Rhiann
Yeah. You have a solid opinion.
Noah
I don't really have a solid opinion. I think I feel like she did it.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Noah
I just don't buy the whole, like, faking being a vegetable for that long, like, how. And also, like, yeah, that's. That's crazy to me.
Fran
But now you'll be ready for the movie with Anne Hathaway.
Noah
I know. I didn't realize, like, it was already cast and everything.
Fran
Yeah, they filmed it.
Noah
Or they filmed it.
Fran
Yeah.
Noah
Because I was gonna make a joke in my caption being like, I can't wait for Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni to knock this movie out of the park. But then I looked it up, and I'm like, it's already cast.
Fran
It's already done. Everyone's like, just hoping that that doesn't happen with this movie, I think.
Noah
Yeah.
Fran

Sydney Sweeney and Scooter Braun. We now have picture evidence. Them holding hands. It's disgusting. And Mariah Carey insists that she still doesn't know JLO on Watch Happens live. So let's get into it and welcome back. Justin.
Justin Sylvester
Oh, my God. Thanks for having me, you guys.
Fran
We're so excited that you're here. You were just at Lady World as well. But we just missed each other.
Justin Sylvester
I know. And shit got real at Lady World.
Rhiann
I was going to say, can you tell us a little bit about how your experience at Lady World was?
Justin Sylvester
That would be great, but I blacked out. Like, if you saw me on stage at Lady World and you have any recollection of me being there, please let me know in my DMs, because I had like six margaritas before I got there.
Rhiann
Let me tell you. I love that that was the energy, though, because I think even the girl, like all the girls that went to whether, like all ages, we had so many people be like, I either, you know, my kids are at home, it's a girls weekend. We're partying. Like, girls were fucking hammered. After our show Sunday night. We had girls be like, I'm so drunk. Like, I'm so excited to see you.
Fran
Yeah.
Rhiann
And then even, even we did like, like a trivia meet and greet Sunday afternoon. It was like 2pm and girls were like, we've been at the bar since 10. Like, we're drunk still from yesterday.
Fran
We're like, they were hungover drinking and they're like, we're so high. But I saw you actually talking about this on the Today show. You were like, the moms, the red wine drunk.
Justin Sylvester
Oh, When I got there on Friday, I went peep out the scene because I needed how professional I needed to be.
Rhiann
Totally.
Justin Sylvester
And when I walked in the crowd, I was there for maybe 30 seconds and I saw this. All these women with that red wine film. You know what I'm talking about? And I was like, bitch, we can get fucked up. Because we all know that one red wine mom.
Rhiann
Yes.
Fran
Oh, my gosh.
Rhiann
Yes.
Fran
That's the end.
Rhiann
I'm a red wine friend.
Fran
Oh, yeah.
Justin Sylvester
The daytime red wine.
Rhiann
I got a red wine friend.
Fran
Oh, yeah. I mean, here's the thing you get. And it's great. It's always a great vibe. Because honestly, they're ahead of me a lot of times. Right? Like, I think, like, they're showing up.
Rhiann
Like, we're getting fogged up. Ria.
Fran
Like, I left my kids at home, I left my husband behind. And I'm like, oh, my God. I'm. I'm. I feel like a loser right now. And I like, I'm behind on drinks. I'm not catching up to you at all.
Justin Sylvester
I always roll with one friend who I already know is going to get more fudged up than me.
Fran
Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
But can take care of himself. Like If I leave him at the club, he is fine.
Fran
Right.
Justin Sylvester
He is not a liability. But I bring him around because his drunk makes me look sober and I'm good.
Fran
Right? Right.
Justin Sylvester
You always need that friend.
Fran
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Justin Sylvester
Damn, look at him go.
Rhiann
And I'm like, that is. That's so true. That is the way to go. But, yeah, it really was. It was. And I. But I loved it because that was the. It was such great energy for everybody. It was.
Fran
And you, you know, were on stage with Rachel Lindsay. How did you feel about that? Because, you know, you're on TV a lot, you're doing your thing, but the live crowd, it's always a different energy.
Justin Sylvester
I love a live crowd.
Fran
Me too. Me too.
Justin Sylvester
I also like Rachel Lindsay is my first phone call in the morning. You can check my phone lock. And she and I just talk about shit that we see online or what we did the night before. So we literally were like, we're gonna take that energy and just bring it to the stage.
Fran
Absolutely.
Justin Sylvester
And she's fun. And again, always have that one friend who's more fucked up than you. And she was more lit than me.
Fran
We saw those pictures. Oh, you're twerking, grinding. But that's what the crowd wants to see. They just want to feel like they're hanging out with their friends.
Rhiann
Exactly.
Justin Sylvester
Also, like on my podcast, yesterday's. It's literally the same energy. It's like we're live. It's like we're just gonna say it, we're gonna put it out there. And I just. I don't know, I like it. I like a live crowd.
Fran
Yeah, so do I. I love, like, every time that you come here and you talk with us, you inspire me to like, be more. Like, give my opinions more and just like, say what's on my mind. You should I. Oh. Like every time you leave here, I'm like, you know, Justin just. He lets it fly. And I wanna do. But do you ever leave somewhere and you're like, oh, my God, why did I say that? You know, like, does that ever eat you up?
Justin Sylvester
No. You know what?
Fran
I don't think you ever say anything bad, but, you know.
Justin Sylvester
No, that never eats me up. What eats me up is. And I love him to death, but my podcast host is a liability. Like, the shit that comes out of his mouth scares the shit out of me. But that's why I love being with him on our podcast, because the things that he thinks about and the way his mind works and the non fear. I always say he talks like he has no parent company, which is crazy, but I love it, and I'm engaged the whole time. My fear is always when this podcast comes out, who's gonna text me? Because at least one celebrity is like, hey, can we talk for five seconds?
Rhiann
Right, right, right.
Justin Sylvester
How can I get your podcast host to not think this of me? And I'm like, you just gotta let it ride. Like, you do not call him. Do not ask him to take a video down. Like, you let him have his moment. So it's just interesting. That's what I get scared about.
Fran
See, that's interesting, though, that they are kind of approaching it in a way where they're like, I wanna change your mind or change your partner's mind. Not in, like a. I'm angry that you're saying this, right. Because I feel like we've had, like, something came to mind recently where somebody's publicist was upset about something we were saying, but they were not coming on the show. They were never a guest. And I was like, we're just talking. Like, we're talk. Like, how any other.
Justin Sylvester
You know, it's always a publicist, though.
Fran
Yeah. And you're like, but they've never been on our show, and they're not scheduled to come on our show, so why is this a problem?
Justin Sylvester
Also, did they hear this or did you hear this?
Fran
Yeah, right, right.
Justin Sylvester
Because, like, a lot of times, like, there was this time. Now I can say this because E. News is done.
Rhiann
Yes.
Justin Sylvester
So fuck what, you know.
Fran
Yeah, yeah.
Justin Sylvester
So there was this very big actress, and her publicist would not let us talk to her. Like, she would. We would have these, like, you know, they call them junkets where there's a big movie, they would set you up in a place, and they would bring the talent in and out. And every time this big actress would be on a junket, she would not come to E. News because her publicist was upset that we asked another client of theirs the wrong question.
Rhiann
Retaliatory.
Justin Sylvester
Retaliatory.
Rhiann
Yeah. It's like, oh, you treat this client like now you don't get access. Like, it's a little power. Power Trippy.
Justin Sylvester
So the next time I saw said.
Rhiann
Actress, we still want all the guests on our show 100%.
Justin Sylvester
So the next time I saw said actress, we were mixing at a party, and I said, she goes, oh, my God. I haven't talked to E. News in a very long time. I said, I know. I said, by the way, your publicist, who you pay probably $10,000 to a month, has been withholding you from E. Because another client of hers, who probably pays half of that or even a third, was upset about something else. And she was like, is that true? I'm like, yes, it's true. And the reason.
Fran
Sometimes they don't even know.
Justin Sylvester
They don't even know.
Rhiann
Yeah, they don't even know.
Justin Sylvester
And the reason the public was mad was so dumb. It was like, the dumbest thing.
Rhiann
It always is. That world is crazy. It always is something really silly.
Justin Sylvester
Let me tell you what it is. It was a story. There was a movie about. And this girl played a sibling to someone with down syndrome, and the movie is about down syndrome. And they asked her something about down syndrome, and she got nervous and upset, and they were like, why'd you ask her about that? And it's like, because that's what the movie's about. And the subject matter, like, why wouldn't they. Why are you upset about. This is the dumbest thing that sounds dumb.
Fran
Because if you ignore it as a whole, then it's like. Then they're like, why isn't he news Asking about.
Justin Sylvester
Can you imagine if I went to Cats.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
And didn't ask about a cat? You know what I mean? Like.
Fran
Yeah. Right, Right.
Rhiann
Which is kind of like, even falls back on the public of, like, you. You know, your client should be ready to go for these prep.
Justin Sylvester
Exactly. It's not hurting me that I'm not talking to her, but.
Rhiann
Right. It's like, this is literally what the movie is about. So.
Justin Sylvester
And it was a beautiful movie, too, by the way.
Fran
Right?
Rhiann
Yeah, it's beautiful.
Fran
Yeah.
Rhiann
Yeah. No, it's. That really, you really tread a fine line sometimes. And I think, like you said now, without being on E News, it could open it up a little. You think it could open up a little bit for you on the podcast? A little bit more.
Justin Sylvester
You know, I kind of love where I am.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
As a gay man, you could say some shit. And because it's the way you say it, it's not about what you say. So if you find how to find out how to say things without pissing people off or making people feel a certain kind of way, like, for instance, like, for me, it is about bringing my own experience into things or saying things very tongue in cheek, Giving somebody like a. Like, if I'm gonna take somebody a little bit down, I'm gonna build them up on something else before, you know, I try to give some backstory of why they may be that way.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Fran
You know, you are great at that.
Justin Sylvester
Thank you.
Fran
You are.
Justin Sylvester
Because I Would want somebody to do it for me.
Fran
For sure. That is. That's a great point.
Justin Sylvester
Like, when I get arrested and my ass is out because, like, you know, some news.
Fran
But Justin's hilarious. That's why his ass is out. Exactly. Exactly. Well, we want to get into some topics. We want to talk about Dancing with the Stars with you. You said you're a little bit behind.
Justin Sylvester
I'm one behind.
Fran
One behind. Okay, so you.
Justin Sylvester
But I know. I know exactly what's going on.
Fran
You know what happened. You know, I think there's mixed reaction to what happened this week, but now with TikTok having such a platform on Dancing with the Stars now and really having a huge say, you're gonna get some funky voting outcomes. Like, I think that's what's just gonna happen now. It is really so important to, like, be on there. And. And that's how I think Dancing with the Stars even had a resurgence, was because people just, like, started watching on. On TikTok a ton. But before we get into who was voted out, I want to talk about the performances in general.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Fran
I watched Whitney and Mark's samba.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Fran
At least 20 times now.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Fran
Absolutely incredible. She is so good.
Rhiann
She really is fantastic. From Mormonwise.
Justin Sylvester
I mean, she is a dancer.
Rhiann
Yes, I know.
Fran
How do you feel about that?
Justin Sylvester
You know what? I don't mind it.
Rhiann
No.
Justin Sylvester
I don't care if Nicole Schwerzinger can win the goddamn thing.
Fran
I don't mind Jojo Siwa Charli d'. Amelio.
Rhiann
Yeah. And that is very true. We're in this, and TikTok is a lot of the reason for it. But the show is having such a resurgence that, like, the discourse from this younger generation of watching Dancing with the Stars, it's like, we're a little bit confused on what Dancing with the Stars is and, like, what. It's like, we have this younger generation now. I've seen all these videos of girls being like, isn't Dancing with the Stars really about the journey and trying and the effort? Like, Andy should get awarded for putting in the effort and, like, all. And then you get the people who are like, no, it should be based on, like, scoring and the dances and all this. And, like, it's. It's very interesting to see this all go down and how people talk about it now because it's gone down to, like, well, Andy loves the show and, you know, well, whatever. You know, Lauren got sent home, so they were like. And Lauren isn't putting in the effort, and therefore we're not voting for her. But we're also getting judges that are giving Andy and Lauren the exact same scores, which doesn't.
Justin Sylvester
Yeah, right.
Fran
And I think Carrie Ann said that this past week, she was like, this group of dancers on this season is kind of split into two groups. Like, you have the true beginners, and then you have people who have dance background that are, like, only getting better. I mean, Alex Earl is fantastic.
Justin Sylvester
I think she surprised me.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Fran
Really? You think so?
Justin Sylvester
She surprised me because she does not look like a who can move her hips. Okay. And I'm not mad at her right now.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Podcast Caller
You know what I mean?
Rhiann
I know she looks good.
Fran
She looks good.
Rhiann
And even, like, with Elaine Hendricks, it was somebody who was a dancer at a younger age. She's 54 now, you know? Yes. And she's crushing it.
Fran
She's like the same age as Andy.
Rhiann
That dance with the plaid love so.
Fran
Good to gnarly cats eyes.
Justin Sylvester
No, she's killing it.
Fran
Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
Robert Irwin. Okay. I think Robert Irwin is so vanilla, but after seeing this season of Dancing with the Stars, I'm down with it.
Rhiann
Yes. But it's the best version of vanilla. Like, it's the most wholesome version of vanilla.
Justin Sylvester
There totally is.
Rhiann
It is.
Justin Sylvester
Until I saw last week, and then I was like, damn, if he got.
Rhiann
A little edge, like, it'd be disappointing, you know? Like, you. I don't want that for him. Like, I want him to stay like that. Like, I want him to continue recording his tiktoks in studio. When you see him pull out his phone and he has a leather phone case, like one of the ones that closes over your phone. So he's. It's like an open book. He's filming in the mirror, and it probably hooks onto his belt. Like, it's like, I want to buy.
Fran
I like, I want to buy into it more than I have. I'm gonna be completely honest. Like, that's not your speed. I'm not totally like, oh, my God, Robert Irwin's so cute. Like, I think he is really cute, but I'm not. Like, when he ripped.
Rhiann
When he ripped his shirt off.
Fran
When he ripped his shirt off, I was like, okay, okay, I'll say.
Rhiann
When I. When he ripped his shirt off. I did go back into a Google of how old he is.
Fran
Yeah.
Rhiann
I thought I went, well, Carrie Anne, he pulled his shirt off. I said, I googled Robert Irwin age, like, so fast.
Justin Sylvester
You had to know.
Rhiann
22, 21.
Justin Sylvester
21, 21.
Fran
That was the first time where I was like, oh, Robert Irwin. It was just the ripping of the shit.
Justin Sylvester
Well, let me tell you how fucked up your mind is. Imagine, like, tomorrow, some girl comes out and says, Robert Irwin was playing with me. Like, played me the whole time. I heard he had five girlfriends, and then six other girls come out and say he was dating me at the same time too. Oh, my God, he broke my heart too. You'd be like, ooh, I'm really into Robert Irwin.
Fran
Yeah. I didn't know Robert Irwin played like that. Like, it would. It would really change things up. No, no, I don't think I would. But I get what you're saying where you're like, oh, he's got a. He's got an edge to him that we didn't know he had.
Justin Sylvester
Yeah.
Fran
But he is really cute and wholesome.
Rhiann
And that's what you were saying with Carrie Anne being like. I don't know, like, Right. Like, do we look at you or do we watching? Like, you're. You're taking your shirt off. Meanwhile, you hear Bruno in the background yelling, like, keep taking off.
Fran
Keep it off. Keep it off. Yeah. I mean, I feel similarly to Dylan Efron kind of where, like, I. Dylan Efron on Traitors and everything. I was like, you know Dylan Efron. Then when he started dancing the stars and he's like, very goofy dancing.
Justin Sylvester
I was like, he looked like he just got those hips installed and he was trying them out for the first time. That's what you're talking about.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Fran
And sometimes we talk about this. Like, sometimes he looks really good. And other times I hate, like, a goofy guy dancer. Like, when they. Like, this is. This is actually, like, Actually makes me crawl out of my skin. Like, when guys go like this. I'm gonna do it.
Justin Sylvester
Do it.
Fran
No, I hate that. I hate it, like, when people.
Justin Sylvester
You don't like the fact that what you thought of him matched. Did not match what was going on. Dancing with the Stars.
Fran
Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
It's like, the first time. And no one could kill me for this. It's like the first time you heard David Beckham speak. And you're like, oh, that's your voice. You're like, wait, no, that is not what I had in my head. I had the Emporio Armani, you know, like, in my head. That does not match.
Fran
No. And love, Dylan. I love when a guy dances and lets loose. Like, look, my husband loves to dance. Like, I love that. It's the.
Rhiann
As is mine.
Fran
Yes. And Joe is a great dancer when he tries to do that, like, the goofy dancing. I'm not on board with where it's like, why are you being goofy? Like.
Justin Sylvester
Like, I can't look at you no more.
Rhiann
I know, but I like Dylan. I do appreciate how much, like, you know, when someone just. You can tell they're really putting 100%.
Fran
It was spicier this year.
Rhiann
He is. And I think, like, Daniela's working on that for him, like, because he's not. I don't. You know, I don't think he's ever had to worry about having rhythm. Yes. Like, any other type of sex appeal besides, like, I look really fucking good without my shirt on. Which he does. And he talks about how much he loves being shirtless.
Justin Sylvester
You know, he does love it. Tell everyone this. When you have broke guys, like, a broke guy is the best sex ever. Like a broke. Like a six, seven. Like, not so cute, but kind of hot, but doesn't know he's hot. That's the best sex you're gonna have in your life. If you grew up a 10 your whole life. You're not trying to learn new tricks. You're not trying to learn new things because everybody's, like, throwing themselves at you. You've never had to work to please anybody.
Fran
Right. The personality is not there. I just was watching this show on Netflix. It's Inside. It was like, a bunch of influencers, whatever, on a reality show. And Mark Estes, one of the Montana boys, I don't know if you've seen he was on there. And nobody wanted to vote him off. Cause they were like, we just want to look at him. We just want him around, whatever. And he was really nice. At the end of the show, I was like. I really came around. I was like, what a nice guy. And then my husband was like, but he's just nice.
Rhiann
He was like.
Fran
He was like, see, you're just saying he's a nice guy, but he's not funny. And I was like, you're right. He's not funny. I'm not laughing at anything he's saying.
Justin Sylvester
He's just hot.
Fran
Hot and nice, you know?
Justin Sylvester
And by the way, ladies, he dated Kristin Cavallari. She taught him enough.
Rhiann
That's so true.
Justin Sylvester
She taught him a lot of.
Fran
I always forget about that, you know.
Justin Sylvester
They had a big moment.
Fran
They did. They did have a big moment.
Rhiann
They did.
Justin Sylvester
Trust me.
Rhiann
And then she was like. Like, it was like she caught a fish. And then she, like, let him go.
Fran
Yeah, she was, you know, little boy back.
Rhiann
She was like, this is. It's run its course. Like, it's not going more Than this.
Justin Sylvester
Come back in 10 years. She's like a dude.
Fran
Yeah, she.
Rhiann
She is so.
Justin Sylvester
She is like a dude with tits.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Fran
Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
I love her. Her vibe, her whole aura. Yeah, she is a dude with tits and bde.
Fran
And she's been the same since Laguna Beach.
Justin Sylvester
And by the way, I would have been scared of that bitch. I get Lauren Conrad now. I understand Lauren Conrad. She was the girl two years behind you who was like, getting all the dudes that you wanted. Always had that fast ass metabolism and was like a double C by the time she was 13. Like, the perfect Cs too.
Fran
I always was like, I want to be like, when you're watching that show and it's like, you either want to be Elsie, you want to be Kristen. Whitney. Some people wanted to be Whitney.
Justin Sylvester
Some people want to be Whitney.
Fran
I always wanted to be Kristen.
Justin Sylvester
I always wanted to be Audrina.
Rhiann
I was going to say. Or you weren't Audrina.
Fran
Yeah, that's true.
Rhiann
And you wanted Justin Bobby with his boots on the beach.
Justin Sylvester
I feel like Audrina had a lot of, like, close calls. Like, there was always a miss period scare. Like, that's how I want to live my life in my 20s as a girl. Like living. Living with fucking clear blue. Easy on it.
Fran
There wasn't a lot going on.
Rhiann
Ryan Cabrera, like, there's like, you know, there's these pop stars in the mix.
Justin Sylvester
Yes, yes.
Fran
And getting into a fight with her was pointless.
Justin Sylvester
Pointless.
Fran
There was no fighting back. You were fighting with yourself when you fought with Audrina.
Justin Sylvester
Because by the way, she was ordering her next pair of shoes in her head.
Fran
Yeah.
Rhiann
As Kristin Cavallari. Did she do Dancing with the Stars?
Justin Sylvester
I don't know. That's a good question.
Fran
That is a good question. I could see it maybe in the future.
Rhiann
I know. But now I'm kind of thinking, like, maybe she did.
Fran
Somebody from the Hills had to have done it.
Justin Sylvester
Someone. No, they were too early.
Fran
You think so?
Justin Sylvester
The Hills were too early.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
Maybe Spencer Pratt did it. I can remember a Spencer Pratt.
Rhiann
Oh, she did.
Fran
Kristen Cavallary did it.
Rhiann
She was on season 13 with Mark.
Justin Sylvester
One episode.
Rhiann
I see this. I see this video titled eliminated too soon, season 13.
Fran
Chris Cavalier didn't make it far.
Justin Sylvester
She did not make it far.
Rhiann
Yeah. But I remember because I remember her talking about it, like, maybe something. Because there's the people that were on the show in that window of, like, those years now that are, like, now everybody wants to do dancing stars. And I did it too early.
Fran
Right. Some People did too early or they said no and they're not coming back to get asked again.
Justin Sylvester
Yeah, I want to do it.
Fran
You would be great. You.
Rhiann
Why wouldn't. You know, why not?
Justin Sylvester
I would love to do it.
Fran
You are fantastic.
Justin Sylvester
And Survivor, but only for the dietary situation. Like, I am not even doing it to win. If I won, I'd be like, wait, what? Wait, who?
Fran
Yeah, I did Survivor Barstool Survivor, and I won. This was last year, and it was. We were allowed to eat, and I still lost £10 that week.
Justin Sylvester
Where'd you guys go?
Fran
It was just at our Chicago office, basically warehouse. And I was treat. I talked about this like, I was treating it like I was on Survivor. Really. Like, they were putting out breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I was like, I can't. I can't eat. Like, I was so locked in. Like, it was like I was acting like it was a real deal.
Justin Sylvester
Oh, no, no, I'm doing it. I want to do it.
Fran
Yeah.
Rhiann
Oh, that would be such a good one for. Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
With my luck, I would gain five pounds.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Fran
Well, there was a point where our boss was like, we were talking towards the end of it, and I was like. I was like, I just, like, have not been eating. Like, I must have lost at least 5, 10 pounds this week. He was like, I think I've gained 10 pounds. Yeah. He's like, I'm a stress eater. I've been eating everything. Like, it was just like. The juxtaposition was just like, totally. In that office, you're either a stress eater or you don't.
Rhiann
Or. Yeah, like, our Chicago office, there's, like, abundance of snacks everywhere, too. So many snacks.
Justin Sylvester
I love a breakup. My body after a breakup is tea. It is snatched. It is the greatest thing I've ever seen, and I'm happy in my relationship right now, but I tell him all the time. I was like, if you want to take two or three days off and go clear your mind and think about.
Fran
Some shit, I want to go on a break. You want to go on a break?
Rhiann
Send me a text like, hey, I need some. Some time alone with no context to scare me a little bit.
Fran
Just for that, come back.
Justin Sylvester
Have you ever seen that Robert Downey Jr. Meme when he's like, that's my metabolism.
Fran
Five business days. Get me back on the weekend.
Justin Sylvester
Come get me back on the weekend.
Fran
That's all it takes.
Justin Sylvester
Like, I have the Oscars next week. Can we break up real quick? I would fuck some shit up.
Fran
Surprise me with it, though.
Justin Sylvester
Literally.
Rhiann
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Don't you? It has to be a surprise.
Fran
As you might have seen on our Chicks in the Office Instagram, Fran came over for a lovely night of soup, grilled cheese, and dancing with the stars. And what I put that soup in was these beautiful, cute pumpkin bowls from Wayfair. We ate it on my Wayfair dining room table. And then we looked at ourselves in my Wayfair mirror and had an espresso from my Nespresso machine from Wayfair. Everything you can get from Wayfair to really spruce your apartment, your house, whatever it is, up.

Rhiann
Circling back. Yeah, circling back. Sadly, Lauren. Lauren did go home, which, like, I think I had just a secondhand embarrassment that was driving my disappointment in her being sent home because I do think she could have gotten so much better if she stayed on watching that dance again. I was like, okay, like, the effort wasn't like, you know, I get it, but like, she danced to her own damn song and all of fifth harmony was in the audience. Like, that's a tough way to go.
Fran
All five of them.
Rhiann
Well, not Mel.
Fran
And so they were.
Rhiann
People were talking about it's never Camilla, but the other three, they were all there supporting. And the choreographer who did the whole work from home dance was there with them too.
Fran
But did you notice this? Danielle Fischl danced to Manchild by the actual Serena Carpenter version.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Fran
Lauren did not dance to Work From Home. The original, she danced to a cover because the original has Camila Cabello's voice and she didn't want. The people are saying it's because she didn't want to dance the one with Camilla.
Rhiann
That's so interesting. I wonder if that's the case or if it's just like these fucking record labels.
Fran
Yeah, but they got Manchild by Sabrina.
Rhiann
Yeah, but like, Sabrina could have maybe.
Fran
Pushed out a little bit.
Justin Sylvester
She's also on, like, she's trying to. She just released an album.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
She knows that all promo is.
Fran
I. I don't want to be. I don't want to kick Lauren while she's down, because I did feel very bad, honestly.
Rhiann
Yeah. Yeah.
Fran
I genuinely did not think she was good. And, like, it was a tough.
Rhiann
It was not a great for me.
Fran
You know, I have to be more. The potential is more. And Andy, like, people are like, oh, we feel bad for him, and that's why we vote for him. And I get it, but I sort of don't. At the same time, I'm like, he's not gonna. Let's be honest. He's not gonna make it far. Like, he. He probably should have went before.
Rhiann
Let me tell you. He could. The way. You know what I mean? The way people are voting for him, though, like. Right.
Fran
He could. He probably should have went before Lauren. But at the end of the day, like, Lauren, you weren't a girl group. You were in fifth harmony, and those are your moves. Yeah. Like, that's.
Justin Sylvester
No, no, you gotta. You gotta up it, right?
Rhiann
Like, there was no possess.
Fran
I was texting you during her performance. I was like. There was zero pizzazz. There was zero pop in that. Like, almost like you're, like, kind of confused. Like, does she care or does she not care? At the end, it seemed like she cared because she was pissed, which I'm fine with that response. People were upset the way she responded when they were like, how do you feel? And she was, like, pissed. It's like, yeah, yeah, I'd be pissed. That's a real ass response.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Fran
People wanted her to be like, whatever. No, she's pissed. But at the same time, I was like, it's just. It wasn't there.
Rhiann
It's just like, look, she. It wasn't there because we got. Andy planted the heartstrings. And no matter what, that's gonna. That's gonna win votes over. I mean, I. I cried when he grabbed the camera for the. For the Hozier yell in that song and, like, did the. And he didn't even.
Justin Sylvester
I got you.
Rhiann
He didn't even really. He. The. The biggest thing, too. I also don't think he did it the right way. Like, I think he was supposed to grab the camera with both hands and he was just one. And it's so. It wasn't fully what he. Even then I still was like, oh, my.
Justin Sylvester
You still voted for his ass.
Rhiann
Oh, my God. He's smiling, but he's just smiling, like, straight into the camera. It's got. Yeah, I look.
Fran
Got a lot of People. It got a lot of people. And I don't blame.
Rhiann
It got a lot of people.
Fran
I cried about Danielle Fishel talking about her being proud of Sabrina Carpenter and Sabrina Carpenter being proud of her. I cried at Jordan Chiles after she finished her dance to anxiety and was crying at the end because she was like, she did it, like she made it through the dance. And I was like, that's so sweet. And then everyone was messaging me because I was like posted that. I cried at that. Everyone was like, just wait until Andy. And then Andy did that and I didn't cry and I was like, it didn't get me.
Justin Sylvester
You don't like Andy?
Rhiann
No, it's not that I don't like him.
Fran
I do, but I'm not. I'm kind of just.
Rhiann
You don't have like that. You don't have that. You know, people joke and call it like old man syndrome, you know, where it's like you watch like an, like an elderly. He's not even that old. Like, I'm acting like, that's like, he's like 41. I'm like, not acting. He's not 80 years old, but like.
Fran
Because he's not 80 years old dancing out there. He's a 50 something year old man.
Rhiann
People are acting like he is.
Fran
I know. And that's what I can't get on board with. I'm like, he's.
Rhiann
He's the same age as Elaine.
Fran
Yeah, that's what I.
Rhiann
They're acting like. He's like, you know, when. Reggie. Reginald. What is all that? That's how they're acting. And you were like, that was different.
Fran
That was so different. He was cute and you were like, oh, my God. So proud. What was he, 80 something years old? He was old. He's definitely 50 something years old.
Justin Sylvester
But Andy's out of shade.
Rhiann
Yeah, that's what it is.
Justin Sylvester
And he's cute and he has like.
Fran
A grandpa thing and he's like, you know, comedian. He's funny.
Rhiann
Yeah, he's 58 years old. Right.
Justin Sylvester
That's all. By the way, that is my. That is. That is not young to be learning a dance in a week and throwing it out.
Fran
Yeah, my 88 year old grandfathers both like play tennis every day. They ski. So maybe I just have, you know, I'm, I'm. I think Andy can achieve more.
Justin Sylvester
Okay.
Fran
That's what it is.
Justin Sylvester
Well, maybe next week.
Fran
It's not shitting on him. It's more like I have more faith.
Rhiann
All right, guys. I also want to mention that this Is like kind of nothing to do with Dancing with the Stars, but at the same time it does. So I obviously throw on Dancing with the stars like five minutes before 8pm See what happens. You catch the end of Wheel of Fortune.
Fran
Yes.
Justin Sylvester
This week, that $1 million.
Rhiann
$1 million. I've never seen it happen before. My sister was over my husband. We're watching. I go, she just won a million dollars in Wheel of Fortune. I've never seen this happen.
Justin Sylvester
It was incredible the way my two week notice would hit that desk at the same moment.
Rhiann
That's when they were joking that my.
Justin Sylvester
Boss was in the audience. The way that woman would know that I am Carol. I am not coming back.
Fran
I'm gone. I am gone.
Rhiann
You know, Ryan Seacrest had a little tear in his eye. You don't, you don't experience a million.
Fran
Dollars on Wheel of, Wheel of Fortune.
Rhiann
And she, I, she was a younger girl. And I loved the confidence because when that clue popped up, I was trying to figure out. Figure it out. I was like, I don't know. I don't know. The letters popped up two seconds. She smiled like, she made a face like this. Like she smirked right into the camera and was like, pack of coyotes.
Fran
Boom. Nailed it.
Rhiann
Nailed it. And when he opened that envelope, $1 million.
Justin Sylvester
How about the woman who said Barry Washington? I was like, no, no, not a black lady. No.
Fran
And then didn't Kerry Washington say something about it? She did. Barry Washington.
Justin Sylvester
Barry Washington.
Fran
You're just like a super.
Rhiann
That there is a Barry Washington that's.
Fran
Out there and famous. Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
I hope Barry comes out. Have you seen the video? This is so terrible. The new Glen Powell movie's out now.
Rhiann
The show?
Justin Sylvester
Yeah, the show.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
And there was a scene where they were in the club and this girl who's an actress had this viewing party because she finally got her big break. She was gonna be in the Glen Powell TV show. She's having this viewing party. Her friends are taping her. And all of a sudden the scene comes on. She's like standing in front of the tv. She's like, oh, my God, this is gonna be great. And she realizes that she got replaced by someone else by Hawk Tua. By fucking Hawk Tua.
Rhiann
Shut the fuck up.
Fran
And she's screaming. She's like, I got replaced by Hawk to a. And she's screaming. And there's like. She had balloons up. She had a picture of Glen Powell as Chad on the wall. Now here's my question, because one of. There was a whole group of people there right One of the other people I saw posted is an actor who's on Not Power, but like one of the spin off shows. Yeah, I believe. Do we think that was a skit?
Rhiann
Because.
Fran
Because apparently this girl does skits. And people were so confused in the comments. They were like, we cannot tell if this is a skit or not.
Rhiann
But that's when, you know, everyone was like, doing it.
Fran
Right, right. And everyone was dead serious in the room. And I saw someone be like, I have a feeling this might be a skit. Because if this was real life, you can't tell me one of her friends wouldn't be on the ground crying, laughing. And I was like, I don't know.
Justin Sylvester
I would have been laughing.
Podcast Caller
Right?
Justin Sylvester
You'd be like, oh, my God. But can you believe that? That shit happens. I have had times where you think you're gonna be in a movie and like, they cut your part and you've told everybody and now you're looking like.
Fran
It'S the Joey Tribbiani on the show. It's the Joey Tribbiani.
Rhiann
Well, you know what makes me think maybe that it could have happened was Glenn Powell was just on Jake Shane's podcast and they actually spent like a decent amount of time talking about how actors, like, get replaced in roles after they've already filmed it. Yeah, it's like they. He spoke about it like, he was like, he's like, I know people who have, you know. And he was, he used the. Maybe Glenn was like trying to warn everybody.
Fran
That's true.
Rhiann
He used the Back to the Future example. He's like, there's a guy who was in Back to the Future future. Like, they filmed so much of it and then they were like, this isn't working. And they fired him and they get out of here.
Fran
You have to see this video. I'll send it to you later.
Rhiann
She's like, I can't believe I have.
Fran
A big poster of Glenn.
Justin Sylvester
It's incredible.
Fran
And if it's a skit, it's a phenomenal, phenomenal. And the fact that, yeah, 20 people came over to do this skit. So good. If it's not a skit, she's gonna be more famous.
Rhiann
No, that's good. Right? A fantastic writer's room too. To be like, we're gonna replace her with Haktua. That's like, we gotta think of what could be so absolutely ridiculous that like, could actually. But also could actually happen. She's just kidding. Like, the way viral human beings are just like, thrust into fame. It's like this Girl could be working to be an actress for 25 years, and they'd be like, you know what? You don't have the appeal. That.
Fran
And let me tell you, I still don't know why Hawk 2 is in the show. Like, even. Even still, I'm like, why? Wait? Why? That's another.
Rhiann
That's another thing that I'm certainly back to. She really is in the episode.
Fran
Yeah, she really is in the episode.
Justin Sylvester
I was like, does she say anything in the episode?
Fran
I haven't watched yet, but I only saw from that clip, and I was like, she's got a couple lines.
Justin Sylvester
It's so crazy. You know, these things all film, like, two years ahead of time. So at the time, she was probably, like, the biggest thing ever.
Fran
Right, right. That was a year, like last year. It was like, Hawk 2. Yeah, yeah. You know, and we were sitting here going, like, I just don't.
Justin Sylvester
But isn't the sec, like. Am I wrong when I say the SEC is, like, kind of investigating Hawk Tua?
Fran
Yeah.
Noah
For, like, the fraud thing.
Fran
No, you're not wrong. That was.
Rhiann
Oh, for the crypto thing.
Fran
Yeah, for the crypto thing.
Justin Sylvester
By the way, who's buying crypto from Hog2?
Fran
Who will buy crypto from anybody these days?
Justin Sylvester
Anybody from Hogtua.
Fran
Listen. Yeah, yeah, yeah. From Hog Tua. I'm not buying shit from Hog Tua Tua.
Justin Sylvester
I'm not even borrowing a tampon from Hog Tua.
Fran
Okay, so good. Oh, my God, that video. I really want to know if it's real or not. We'll have to find out. I'm sure, like, eventually we'll know. We will know. We could probably ask.
Rhiann
Maybe Hawk 2 will be on Dancing with the Stars.
Justin Sylvester
I can see it.
Fran
Yeah. I was thinking.
Rhiann
It's not.
Justin Sylvester
She's not in jail.
Fran
No. I was thinking Gypsy Rose would maybe be on at some point.
Justin Sylvester
Gypsy Rose has bigger fish to fry, by the way. The fact that Gypsy Rose. I was single for eight years, this bitch was in jail, got out of jail, got engaged twice, and needed Maury to figure out who her baby daddy was. Like, you did it, girl. And I'm not mad, but I'm jealous.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Fran
She had a million secret admirers.
Justin Sylvester
Oh, she was killing it.
Fran
Yeah, she was.
Rhiann
The letters were flooding in.
Fran
They were. She was killing it.
Justin Sylvester
Do you guys ever look at the Idaho inmates? The hot ones?
Fran
No.
Rhiann
No. The what? I know who you're talking about, though.
Justin Sylvester
They're the inmates, and they basically make these videos.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
And it's like, hey, my name is Jerome, and I have about 16 more months left that I'm looking for, you know, somebody to talk to. I like to fish, I like to write. And it's like these, like, dating profiles almost for jail. And then at the bottom, it was, like, arrested for aggravated assault. And I'm like, holy. But some of the guys. If I didn't have a man.
Rhiann
Yeah, that's like everybody the other way. When everyone freaked out over the hot inmate, that guy, you know, and then he got out years ago, and then he was, like. Then he. He was, like, getting modeling gigs.
Fran
Yeah, he had, like, the green. Green eyes. Yes, he was.
Justin Sylvester
I think he ended up knocking up the daughter of the Topshop guy. Oh, remember Chloe Greene?
Rhiann
Yes.
Justin Sylvester
I think they had a baby together.
Rhiann
Yes.
Justin Sylvester
And he got some insurance on that.
Rhiann
Yes, I think you're right.
Justin Sylvester
He played the long game on that one.
Fran
Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
You let Jeremy Meek knock you up.
Fran
Yeah. Yeah. It really depends what you go in for. It does.
Justin Sylvester
It really is crazy.
Rhiann
Oh, my gosh, that's so funny. But no, I mean, next week is Disney Night on Dancing with the Stars, which is always exciting and fun and. But they're honoring Disneyland, so, like, a lot of the songs are from, like, rides, so it's a little different. Oh, like, there's, like, Space Mountain music. Tiana's Bayou Adventure, your favorite ride.
Justin Sylvester
Get ready, girl.
Rhiann
Jordan and Ezra are dancing to. Yeah, that's gonna be amazing. And everyone thought, like, is Dylan gonna dance to something from High School Musical? He's not. They actually gave that Life as a Highway or something.
Fran
Yeah, he's doing Life as a Highway.
Justin Sylvester
He's in Cars.
Fran
Cars. Yeah, I. I think he's. I think he's great.
Rhiann
Yeah, No, I. He's adorable.
Justin Sylvester
Very Tyler Cameron. Ish.
Rhiann
So true.
Justin Sylvester
Very Tyler Cameron.
Rhiann
Yeah, you're right. You're right. That's definitely true. That's definitely true. I wonder, like, I always wonder about Dylan's, like, relationship status still, you know, because I feel like he's got a girlfriend for forever, but it's like, you never know what day, because it's so crazy to me. And granted, he does keep his relationship super, super private. So it's a different thing than, like, the Alex and Braxton, but every week, everyone's like, they broke up. You could totally tell from her interview. They broke up. They broke up. It was, like, kind of crazy. It's every single week answer, like, every answer every week after the. After they're done, they're dancing and they get interviewed in the press line. It's like everyone's like, where's Braxton? Is he coming? How does he feel? Is he watching?
Fran
It's like, obviously he's watching at home and voting.
Rhiann
Like, I don't know.
Fran
Like, it's her boyfriend. What do you think he's doing?
Justin Sylvester
Like, so crazy.
Rhiann
I'm just like, what do people think?
Fran
That he's just not supporting at all. And, like, they have to post it every time.
Rhiann
Search Bar is like, alex and Braxton breakup.
Fran
He's literally. He's a professional football player.
Rhiann
Like, he's got things in season. I know.
Fran
You know, he's working as well.
Rhiann
I did see some funny tweets that I love that people were like, they're acting like TikTok night. They're acting like, TikTok is a nonprofit to, like, save children. Like, the way that they were explaining TikTok at the beginning of the show, they're like, TikTok has broken barriers and brought in all this new great. It was, like, stolen all your information.
Justin Sylvester
And giving it to China.
Rhiann
What's next? Instagram night? Like, Snapchat night? Like, what are we talking about? Tik Tok. Like, the way they were talking about Tik Tok, it was so funny.
Fran
And everyone's like, it's. You know, it saved my life and, like, gave me. I'm like, it. It's. It's true. It did give you a full career.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Fran
In a way that they were.
Justin Sylvester
And so did only fans, but we're not having an only fans night on Dancing with the goddamn Stars.
Fran
So true. Moving on to Nicole Kidman.
Justin Sylvester
Stop, y'.
Fran
All. Were you shocked?
Justin Sylvester
Here's what I was shocked about. The first report came out, and it said, Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban are separating. When a celebrity says they're separating, that means that, A, it's not going to be amicable, and B, somebody else was dipping into something else. Because most of the times you get a celebrity saying, by the way, we're getting a divorce. It's all hammered out, and the judgment has come down. That's what normally happens, especially with two A listers. No one ever says separation. The last person that said separation was Hugh Jackman, but he was seeing Sutton Foster.
Rhiann
Right, right, right.
Justin Sylvester
Literally weeks after.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
So he had something that he wanted to do.
Rhiann
Yeah. Yep.
Justin Sylvester
So I was like, ooh, this is. Mmm. I was like, give it 24 hours. Something else is gonna come out. And then we all saw all the other shit that came out.
Rhiann
And it's interesting, too. It's like, if he was trying to get that message out there to to do his thing. And then Nicole, the next day was like, well, then I'm filing for divorce.
Justin Sylvester
Boom.
Fran
Boom. Yeah.
Rhiann
Like, it was. Because it's like, oh, we've been separated for months. But she. And it seemed like they kind of, like, everything was laid out, done. Like, divorce is done. And now their reports is Keith's, like, having a midlife crisis. He's going through it. There's a.
Fran
He talks like somebody that would have.
Rhiann
A guitar player that he's playing with that he likes or something. Changing lyrics of songs.
Fran
Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
Here's a jam, and I'm gonna go both sides of the fence. First of all, Nicole Kidman went through this with Tom Cruise. I remember her talking about. You know, she didn't really talk about it, but one time she said, you know, they had had sex, like, the week before. So, like, she was blindsided by the divorce. And I believe that she was probably blindsided by this separation.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
And then that's when she was like, actually, let me double down and help you out. Let me go ahead and get this divorce. I think it's interesting when two A listers get married, and one person's career, especially if it's the woman, continues to go this way. It causes a lot of stress in a relationship. And I know what the conversations were whenever they first got together. She was 38 years old. Women of a certain age in Hollywood don't work. This is my last two years. I'm gonna settle down and be a mom. Yada, yada, yada. And then at some point in her 40s, she hit it harder than she's ever hit it before. And I think she went with, you know what? I'm gonna strike while the iron's hot. And the iron just stayed hot. And I think it caused a little bit of a riff in their relationship.
Fran
Yeah. It seems like that's, like, not that specifically, but what the rumors are now is that Keith was, like, you know, stepping out. He was seeking other things. They were originally saying that Nicole wanted to save it, but if he was already, you know, why would you want to save that then? You know, if she finds out that he's flirting with his guitarist while he's on tour. Right, right, right. Why would you want to say the.
Rhiann
Opening act or whoever the heck it is? Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
And by the way, it's never that girl. You know what I mean? Like, it's never, like, that girl happened to be in a video with him. And then we see who the actual.
Fran
Right. You're like, oh, it's her. It's her.
Justin Sylvester
Yeah, yeah.
Fran
Like it comes out weeks later. It's like seeing some model that 20 years younger than him. Yeah, yeah, whatever. But have you met Nicole Kidman?
Justin Sylvester
I have met Nicole Kidman.
Fran
Can you tell us a little bit about meeting Nicole Kidman? What is she like in person? We were just talking this week that.
Rhiann
She'S just like an enigma to me. Like I just, you know, I think.
Fran
She'S such a phenomenal actress and I'll watch anything she's in.
Justin Sylvester
It feels like you're meeting somebody from the 50s. Like when you think of a Hollywood actress, you think of Marilyn Monroe. You think of like, you know, all these Greta Garbo, like when they walk in a room, you feel them. She, Angelina Jolie and Rihanna all have that thing where like when they walk in, everyone shuts up. Like, she is just that girl. And you could tell she loves what she does. That's what I like about Nicole Kidman. You know what I mean? Like she loves playing a white woman in distress who has a little bit of money and a controlling husband.
Fran
And she's hiding something.
Justin Sylvester
And she's hiding something.
Fran
A lot of secrets.
Justin Sylvester
She always has secrets, right?
Fran
Drugs on the side of the bed.
Justin Sylvester
And by the way, give her Emmy. She gonna put on a wig the same color as her hair, but still just put on the wig. She's like, she blonde. Gimme the wig. Run me the wig.
Fran
Yep.
Rhiann
Now she wants.
Fran
Thicken it up.
Justin Sylvester
Yeah, thicken it up.
Rhiann
Yeah. And now like we were joking. It's like now it's the older woman dating the younger guy. She's like, sign me up, I'm in for that story.
Justin Sylvester
And guess what? That's what she's gonna do.
Fran
Yeah, I said I'm interested to see like who she dates.
Justin Sylvester
Oh, it's gonna be some hot 40 year old something running around.
Fran
We were saying Zach fucked.
Justin Sylvester
She would never. By the way, I don't think he has enough game for Nicole Kidman.
Fran
I could see what you mean by that. Yeah, I do.
Justin Sylvester
I don't think he has enough game.
Rhiann
I think what she's gonna do, she's gonna also need. She needs someone like super tall now. Because I think she's dealt with the.
Justin Sylvester
Whole, like, she's done with the lift kits.
Rhiann
Yeah, yeah.
Justin Sylvester
She wants to wear heels. She's been wearing kitten heels for her men for the last 30 years.
Fran
That's so true. Oh my God.
Rhiann
Think about between Tom Cruise and a.
Justin Sylvester
Couple and Lenny Kravitz.
Fran
Yeah. She's a tall woman, she's a Tall.
Justin Sylvester
Woman, she can't wait to get no fucking stiletto. Christian Louboutin, you better send this bitch every socate you have in your life.
Rhiann
Seriously. She deserves to strut in like a 4 inch stiletto that she has not been able to wear.
Justin Sylvester
I think she's gonna do it. Have you seen Reese Witherspoon's man?
Rhiann
Yes.
Fran
No. Yes.
Rhiann
Yes, actually.
Fran
Yeah. Cause they were on a vacation together. Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
Lovely Eastern European man. I've met him. He is so sweet, so damn cute and so goddamn confident because he is not an actor. He is not a singer. He does not want to do what Lara Jean Poon does. He does something totally different. Nicole and Reese, no ego. No ego. Nicole and Reese hang out all the time. Reese is gonna be like, girl, yeah, I've done the actor. I had the agent, this finance man who goes to Europe three times a month. You need to get you one of those. Find you one of these.
Rhiann
Exactly. It's like she slowly waited her way out of Hollywood and the industry was like, okay, I got the actor agent. He's not an actor, but he's still in the biz, so gets it. And then now she's just completely out of it.
Justin Sylvester
And the way she even. The way she even carries herself right now is so much lighter. You know what I mean?
Rhiann
Yes.
Justin Sylvester
I feel like she's been dimming her light for so long. And we remember that time that. I'm not gonna say her X man's name, but he got on that stage when it was her moment and, you know, kind of ruined it. But you can go back and Google that if you want. You know, it's just tough being an actor, dating another actor. Especially if you're a woman and especially if you're. If your man's trying to do the same thing.
Fran
Well, Jennifer Aniston. Isn't she dating that, like, hypnotist now? Yeah, they're all getting their own, you.
Justin Sylvester
Know, I'm telling you.
Rhiann
And those girls all talk.
Justin Sylvester
Those girls all talk.
Fran
I think they did that roundtable recently. They probably got together and they were like, yeah, Nicole, it's time.
Justin Sylvester
Get your ass out of there. I'm telling you, it is. That's what. Look at Renee Zellweger.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
She up in Orange county driving a minivan, getting the best dig down of her life. From a man who does not want anything to do. He has his own shit going on. He's into race cars.
Fran
Right.
Rhiann
The only thing we love as much as you all are some yummy, delicious cocktails and no one serves up real delicious drinks like Rumhaven. Rumhaven is made with real coconut water and no artificial flavors or preservatives for a clean and refreshing taste. You can't beat the taste of real coconut water. It's delicious, clean, refreshing. You can enjoy Rumhaven straight over ice with a splash of club soda or in your favorite juice. A nice, delicious rum cocktail with Rum Haven is really like a perfect transition because you can take that Rum Haven from a nice, like, fruity rum punch in the summer to something like little cinnamony in the. In the fall. Really? You can make so many delicious cocktails with Rumhaven. Head over to rumhaven.com chicksintheoffice to learn more.
Fran
Now, why do we think Sydney Sweeney is dating Scooter Braun?
Justin Sylvester
Oh, easy. Come on. We all had this girl in high school. There was always that one girl in high school who was super hot, who always wanted the boyfriend, who always wanted. She wanted people to say, damn, you really got that you're so lucky to be with him. She likes to feel like her men feel so lucky to be with him. And he's that type of guy.
Fran
Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
You know what I mean?
Fran
Oli's, like, older, too.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
Always a little older. Always a little frumpier.
Fran
Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
Always a tiny bit frumpier.
Fran
Yeah. Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
And I kind of love that she's on brand.
Rhiann
Yeah. I mean, it really is. It's like, we. We joked after, like, her and her fiance broke up because he was also kind of in that category of a little older guy. I was like, what exactly is going on here? This.
Fran
Not a little older.
Justin Sylvester
A lot.
Rhiann
A lot older. And, like, she started dating him when she was really young, too. So it was like, what exactly is going on here that, like, you fantasize after that breakup? You're like, oh, she's gonna. She's gonna pop off with somebody's willing. It's like, no, she just. She's a little more of what she knows. Just a guy that has more money than the last guy.
Justin Sylvester
And guess what I heard at that wedding that everybody was after her. I heard Tom.
Fran
I'm not.
Rhiann
Well, that's what we were.
Justin Sylvester
Brady was hog. Like, literally like a fucking dog in heat trying to get at it.
Rhiann
Okay, well, we were saying she could go on a date with anybody.
Fran
Why Scooter?
Justin Sylvester
I'm telling you, he also is. I don't want to put. Look, Scooter on. Is kind of cute.
Rhiann
Is he?
Justin Sylvester
When you have $375 million, you're kind of cute.
Fran
I actually. I don't think so. But we were at dinner last night, and I asked her and another girl we work with, I was like, do.
Rhiann
You guys think Scooter Braun's cute?
Fran
And they were like, no, listen.
Rhiann
No.
Justin Sylvester
Are you attracted to Sofia, Richie's husband? It's the power that comes with those people. People with power.
Rhiann
When he speaks with that accent.
Justin Sylvester
Yes, when he speaks. And I read that res and I go to bank of America and I see that, yeah, that account.
Rhiann
He is fucking put those loafers on.
Justin Sylvester
He puts those loafers on and he has a cufflink with a polo shirt. Like, how do you.
Fran
Like. I'm the opposite of that. Like, I was talking about how.
Rhiann
No, Randy's, like, flat brim hat, backwards.
Fran
Like, my husband backwards had a chain and a T shirt.
Rhiann
No, no, but that's not Sydney Sweeney's.
Fran
No, like. Like I was saying, like, Paul Walker and fast and furious. Like, when he was like, he's wearing these baggy T shirts. Whatever. I was like, oh, my God. Like, he was the hottest guy to ever exist. And then all of a sudden, they put him in a suit in the. I was like, no, no, get that suit off.
Justin Sylvester
You're like, no, he doesn't look like he has chlamydia anymore. I like him when he looked like he had chlamydia.
Fran
But I know that, like, people love, like, you know, a suit.
Justin Sylvester
No, people love a business moment. I also think that she, like, if you look at the photos, by the way, Nobu in la Malibu is where celebrities go to get paparazzi. So just know that. So she and he went to Nobu and they decided to walk out to let you know that they are dating.
Fran
Like, it is like, we're going steady.
Justin Sylvester
It is a thing. I bet you she's so mad those photos aren't the best, which I'm so mad because I want those photos to be good. Excuse me.
Rhiann
But I thought maybe they'd take some pictures together at her birthday party and just, like, put them out, you know?
Justin Sylvester
I thought so too.
Rhiann
Like, at that point, I thought they were gonna walk hand in hand, her and her little silver space outfit and him and his space outfit. And they were just like, stroll right out of the party together, you know?
Fran
I'm distracted by your shoes.
Justin Sylvester
Oh, don't you like them? I love a camel toe.
Fran
You like? You think it's comfortable?
Justin Sylvester
Oh, it's so comfortable.
Rhiann
Really?
Justin Sylvester
I love it. It's like a bra.
Fran
I've never tried, but I've never. Like, I just feel like I don't know How I feel about it.
Justin Sylvester
Phenomenal.
Fran
Really.
Justin Sylvester
They're great.
Fran
Comfortable walking in them.
Justin Sylvester
I've been walking around New York with them. Yeah. They're so good. Are you buying the Sydney Sweeney bras?
Fran
My boobs are. Do not look like Sydney Sweeney, by the way. I think those bras are gonna be made for, like, you know, the girls with the Sydney Sweeney boots.
Rhiann
It's crazy. She must have a great. Like, she must have to tailor all of her clothes, you know?
Fran
Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
It's interesting to me that she. And it's. I'm watching it because I think she is one of the best actresses on Euphoria. That oklahoma scene.
Fran
Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
Like, Zendaya is phenomenal in this show. I think all of them are phenomenal. I just watch her on that show and I am mesmerized.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Fran
That's the best thing she's ever done.
Rhiann
That is the best thing ever.
Fran
Because sometimes she's in something and you're.
Justin Sylvester
Like, okay, all right.
Fran
But in Euphoria, she's fantastic in the.
Justin Sylvester
One with Glenn anyone. But, yeah, she's fantastic. I think she's trying to go for this Oscar nominated actress, this, like, eyebrow kind of thing. And I think she's like the second coming of Cameron Diaz. Like, we haven't had a blonde bombshell who plays Ditzy, but is super smart in a very long time. Why not go down that road?
Fran
Yeah. Like, you think she's trying to go down. Well, it's kind of like when.
Rhiann
Well, that's what kind of makes me think that. It's like you're like, I date older, so I seem more mature, you know?
Fran
Yeah. And it's.
Rhiann
Well, it's kind of like kind of.
Fran
The opposite of it, what Margot Robbie did. But Margot Robbie did it. Right. Like, Margot Robbie really is. Like when she did Wolf of Wall Street. Right. And then all of a sudden, she was doing all these roles where she looked super hot. And then she was like, all right, I want to do I, Tonya. And then I want to be. You know, like, she wanted to do these roles. Yes.
Rhiann
And she's following the same formula now.
Fran
Right.
Rhiann
Because Sydney's doing that wrestling.
Fran
Yeah, like, exactly. She went into that wrestling movie. But Margot Robbie is like.
Justin Sylvester
But Margot Robbie had a few more credits in her name before she did it. That's why I think Glenn is so smart in the way. He's like, people love me. I'm the charming guy. I'm the new rom com guy. I'm gonna give you an action flick every now and then. And I'M gonna keep on hitting these things until they don't hit anymore.
Fran
Like Matthew McConaughey.
Justin Sylvester
Matthew McConaughey is the perfect example.
Fran
And then one day Glen will do what Matthew McConaughey did and deny the final rom com and be like, put me in Dallas Buyers Club.
Justin Sylvester
Exactly. Put me in part two.
Rhiann
Right, right, right.
Justin Sylvester
You just have to play the game. Cameron Diaz is the same way. She played the game in Hollywood for so long. Cashed out and got the hell out. Never was out. Nominated for an Oscar, maybe one Golden Globe for My Sister's Keeper, but other than that, she just understood it.
Fran
Right? Yeah, there was a couple. Yeah, my sister did a couple serious ones thrown in there.
Justin Sylvester
Oh, yeah, she had a few. Yeah, she had a few serious ones.
Fran
That is true. Now on to the final topic because sadly we have to wrap up with you because you have a hard out. You're, you're busy. You're booked and busy. But Mariah Carey was on Watch what happens live. And this is hilarious. She had to switch spots with Andy Cohen. Clearly, the lighting. She's got a good side. She got the lighting.
Rhiann
She's got to be on her good side. And when I watched the clips and I saw Andy on the right side of the table, I was like, andy was in Mariah's ghost.
Fran
Right. We know what's happening here. But she is still claiming to not really know J. Lo, which is just hilarious.
Rhiann
It doesn't get old.
Justin Sylvester
By the way, Andy Cohen is kind of an evil genius. 100% that producing team 1000% are evil geniuses.
Fran
Oh, yeah.
Justin Sylvester
But there is. This man has zero fear. He's like that two year old toddler that will get on a bike and run up a ramp and like go through a hoop of fire not knowing what's going on. But that was kind of hilarious. But also it's weird, right? It's so weird. But only Mariah.
Rhiann
It's only Mariah.
Fran
It's just like a way that Mariah Carey acts that you're just like, only Mariah Carey can act that way.
Justin Sylvester
And we let her.
Fran
And also only Andy Cohen can act that way. I see your point about Andy Cohen. Like sometimes when I'm watching. Watch what happens live or anything that Andy Cohen does love it because he asked these questions that are so like, oh my God, that's. And he says like, oh, Jessica from Idaho is asking the question. It's not Jessica from Idaho, it's Andy Cohen's team.
Justin Sylvester
Exactly.
Fran
But anyways, they're, they're asking the Questions. And he asked a question everybody wants to know, and he doesn't even really care. Like, he's like, okay. And he just, like, sometimes his response, I'm like, that was borderline rude, I guess. But, like, that's just his demeanor where, like, the guest is, like, bantering, and they're giving a long answer, and he's like, okay, okay, moving on. And you're like, wait, no, I want to know more. But they're. I guess they're on a time crunch.
Justin Sylvester
My favorite.
Fran
He's moving along, doesn't care.
Justin Sylvester
My favorite is when a housewife tries to beat around the bush, and, like, he already knows the answer and they don't give it to him. And he has that look like, oh, okay, yeah. Is that all you're gonna say? Like, there's, like, this thing exactly where you're like, oh, he knows something that we don't know.
Rhiann
Okay, okay. Then he looks at his cars, and you're right. It is, like, such a branding thing for the show, which is smart, because they have made that show with that reputation where, like, they're not gonna have a celebrity on who's not gonna answer those questions. Like, they're gonna be like, whatever. You can nod, like, you can if you want to play, if you want to plead the Fifth, whatever it is, fine. But, like, we're gonna ask you these questions, and that's, like, par for the course of going on that show. And it's like. Like, you're not going to get. A lot of interviewers are going to look Mariah Carey in the eye and be like, so how much money you've made from all I want for Christmas?
Justin Sylvester
Exactly.
Rhiann
Like, it's got to be a ton, huh?
Fran
Yeah.
Rhiann
How much money is it? Huh?
Justin Sylvester
It's only him.
Fran
And you could tell when he's actually interested in something, right? Because people give an answer, and it's usually just, okay. And then he's like, really?
Rhiann
Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
Oh, yeah.
Fran
He'll pop right up. And I'm like, oh, that's narrow.
Rhiann
He's, like, stunned. Or it's like someone's gut gets name dropped. Or like, like, oh, that's juicy.
Fran
Sometimes he's not even paying attention. It feels like I'm like, he just clocks in.
Justin Sylvester
If you're a housewife that's been on 25 times, like, he's not in.
Rhiann
You know what the funniest thing was the other night? I was watching, and I don't know if you saw this, because I know you're. You're a Housewives guy. But the Salt Lake City, the first one, it was either the first or the second episode. Lisa Barlow and her confessionals just had one smoky eye.
Justin Sylvester
And did you see him call her out about it? How funny was that?
Fran
So fucking funny.
Rhiann
I just watched it. I was like, oh, my God. How did she only have one smoky eye?
Justin Sylvester
And there are. I've been in these confessional rooms. There is at least seven people.
Rhiann
Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
Like, one, your hair and makeup team's there. Two, there's a producer. There's a cameraman. There's a sound person. There is a first ad. There is an assistant.
Rhiann
No way.
Justin Sylvester
There's a story editor. There are eight motherfucking people sitting behind there and not one gay. There's no gays in Salt Lake City. Because I would have been like, lisa, can we talk first? Yeah, yeah, Talk for one second.
Rhiann
Either that or they were setting her up.
Fran
Like, if I'm doing anything, I'm looking in the mirror or my phone a billion times before I get on the camera. She didn't look at herself and go, you know why?
Justin Sylvester
The tea was hot. She was ready. Housewives get so ready to tell their side story that they are like, just get me in that chair. Because they know that the other person's doing the same thing, so they want to tell their side of the story.
Fran
It is.
Justin Sylvester
Is kind of one of the craziest parts of reality to you.
Fran
Have you sat in with Kyle doing it?
Justin Sylvester
Oh, my God. The first two seasons. So I worked with Kyle. Season one, two, three, a little bit of four, and all of five. They would do the confessionals at the house.
Fran
Yes.
Justin Sylvester
So in Beverly Hills, it used to be all at the houses. So they would come set up in the morning, and they would sit with her for three or four hours. And. And it was interesting to hear what was going on because I could put. I have a story head. I could put the story together from upstairs. So I always knew where they were gonna go with the story. I could tell you everything that was gonna happen in the season because I can hear how they would ask her questions.
Fran
Yeah, that's a long day, too. Just recounting anything you've ever did for the past couple months that they've been filming.
Justin Sylvester
The reunion's the worst.
Fran
Yeah.
Justin Sylvester
Like, the reunion is one of the hardest things to do in television history if you are a person on that couch, because not only did you live it, you had to rewatch it, and you got to hear what they said in confessionals. And they've done press and they've been Doing things on Twitter and TikTok and Instagram. So when you get there, you have 14 to 16 hours to finally get it all out. And everybody now knows what the audience thinks of them. So they're going with, okay, the audience thinks I'm a bitch because of this. I have to turn this around. So it's like. It's insane. It's crazy.
Fran
And it's so long too. You know, everyone always says it's all day long and then we only see like an hour or two of it. And you're just like, I want the unedited.
Justin Sylvester
I know, right?
Fran
Can you just do a live stream?
Justin Sylvester
I think they'll probably. I think at some point in life they will probably give you the unedited.
Fran
Versions of a lot of those.
Justin Sylvester
Yeah, I think you'll get a lot of unedited stuff, but it's a lot. But now what they do, I don't know who fucked this up for everybody, but it used to be open so like hair and makeup and assistants could go in and listen to everything. There was that moment one time where in New Jersey, Teresa's hairstylist said something to Theresa. And you remember they were fighting backstage. Cause he was listening over the monitor. So then they were like, fuck it. No more. No monitors, no nothing. Like, you can't even.
Fran
Someone slipped.
Justin Sylvester
Someone slipped. Some gay man slipped.
Rhiann
Well, my God, was seeing one Smokey. I mean, it was funny. I don't know if they. No one stopped her or if they just.
Fran
I think she's reshooting it. Just.
Rhiann
We'll just ride this one out. But Justin, thank you so much for coming.
