Yeah, actually, pro tip for everybody out there, maybe. I don't know. We are getting married in a church, and the church told us to not get florals for the church because all of the florals for Easter are still gonna be up, so we didn't have to get florals for the church.

[Ria]

That is a good hack.

[Fran]

Because they have cheat code. There is cheat code. And I think I said this where then they were like. And then we have the couples that get married around that time, come back the next year and help decorate.

[Ria]

Is like, you know, they actually leave us a really nice donation.

[Fran]

Right, right. And I'm like, you know, yeah, that's lovely for them. The ones who go back. The ones who go back and participate. That's very nice. That's very nice for them. But, yeah, that was a little cheat code. We didn't have to get florals for the church because Easter is the Sunday.

[Ria]

Yes, we still have work to do, so A little bit, hopefully.

[Fran]

Yeah.

[Ria]

If we're mailing it in next week, don't blame us.

[Fran]

Don't blame us. I've been mailing it. I've been uglying it up. Besides my hair. I got my hair done.

[Ria]

It looks fantastic.

[Fran]

Thank you. I got my hair done. Really?

[Ria]

Aren't you look beautiful.

[Fran]

Oh, thanks. I feel like I'm like, once again, like, when I look in the mirror, I like what I see. It's the fricking cameras in this place. Sometimes, you know, ugly it up in preparation to, like, be like, wow. On the rehearsal dinner and wedding day.

[Ria]

Yeah, yeah.

[Fran]

But I did get my hair done, added some highlights. You know, I've gone.

[Ria]

Well, you've been doing it for the benefit of your skin.

[Fran]

I have been doing it. No, I'm doing it for the benefit of my skin so that you slightly.

[Ria]

Made it sound like you're like. I want everyone to see me look as bad as I can and then be like. So that they're even more impressed.

[Fran]

That's part of it, too. It's like, let me ugly it the fuck up so that when I step out, they're like, holy shit.

[Ria]

Like, oh, my God, she's stunning.

[Fran]

She looks amazing.

[Ria]

No, but I'm actually doing it for.

[Fran]

The benefit of my skin.

[Ria]

Your skin looks great.

[Fran]

Thank you. It really has been responding very nicely.

[Ria]

To the no makeup.

[Fran]

So I'm really trying to keep that up and, you know, treating my skin well. And I got my hair done and I added highlights, which, you know, everybody knows my hair journey. Like, sometimes it's darker, sometimes it's lighter. I went darker in September, but, like, really just a light brown. And then it gradually got darker because of the winter. And I did a glaze and it got really dark. And that's too dark for me, my hair. But I liked it because it was making my hair really healthy. Like, when you don't have to highlight your hair. So, like, I, you know, sucked it up for, like, a couple months of, like, how dark it was. And then my hair just, like, refuses to stay brown, though. Like, when I go in the sun for one day, all the highlights come out, and I'm in. I'm a natural brunette, but my hair wants to be blonder. Like, no matter how many times I dye it darker the highlights come out. Maybe because I've been literally highlighting my hair since I'm 10 years old. And that's not an exaggeration. It's been since fifth grade. So, you know, it just feels like me. It feels like me. It should be legal that my parents were getting my hair highlighted when I was 10 years old. But that's showbiz, babe. You know, that is showbiz. I was a showbiz kid, and, you know, that happens.

[Ria]

I was gonna say, for any other reason? No, but, like, for showbiz. Toddlers and Tiaras.

[Fran]

Yeah, literally Toddlers and Tiaras. That was me. And so this feels like me, you know, it's, like, bright enough. Some highlights, fresh, ready to go. Oh, I'm just like, you know, I feel like I'm sparkling. Like, I'm sorry. That's, like, so Jesus. But I do. Like, I, like, woke up this morning and I was like, oh, my God, I'm sparkling.

[Ria]

You have a glow. Shining.

[Fran]

You have a glow. Thank you very much.

[Ria]

Sarah called it a bridal glow. It's true.

[Fran]

Thanks. Thank you. You know, I appreciate that. I do feel I looked at myself. Oh, my God, she's shining. So, yeah, that's how I feel right now. Good and super casual. Plans for Matt's birthday, we don't really have anything planned. We were like, we go to dinner on Friday, Keep it casual, you know, because we got big things to celebrate.

[Ria]

Exactly.

[Fran]

In a week.

[Ria]

Exactly. You're just trying to get to the good stuff. A birthday isn't good.

[Fran]

No. But, you know, he's like, it's 31.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

Yeah. No, yeah. It is what it is. Speaking of, though, sometimes I'm like, I can't believe I'm turning 28 soon.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

Like, I still, like. Like, I'm not so young anymore. I'm not old. I am young.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

But when. When we used to do this show and people would come in and ask me how old I was.

[Ria]

Right.

[Fran]

There were times where it was like, I'm 20. I'm 21.

[Ria]

Yeah. They had a shock to react.

[Fran]

Shocking. They'd be like, you're Doing this show at 2021 now, it's not.

[Ria]

It's like, you know, now we're perfectly normal.

[Fran]

Yeah. You're. You're a full grown adult now. So. Yeah. I have something else I wanted to share, but yeah, that's.

[Ria]

That's kind of it for me. I. I have. My brother launched a new product this week that he's doing a little party for tonight, which I'm excited for. And it's a new bag. It's named after me and my sister.

[Fran]

As it should be.

[Ria]

Yeah. My namesake is this beautiful leather tote.

[Fran]

Yes.

[Ria]

So I'm excited to see that come to life. And that's about it. And because of the party, I don't know if I am like in my outfit that I was like, I gotta make this outfit last till throughout the evening. And I'm wearing my standing jeans. Ugh.

[Fran]

Yeah.

[Ria]

The worst.

[Fran]

Yeah.

[Ria]

That is sitting in standing jeans.

[Fran]

Yeah. There's standing jeans and they're sitting jeans and everybody knows that.

[Ria]

Exactly. And I normally have them one size apart from each other. And the standing jeans are a little tighter and they're not meant to sit in. And it makes it quite uncomfortable to sit. I'm like sitting in a weird position.

[Fran]

I wouldn't think about it too much. You look fabulous.

[Ria]

Thank you. But like, you know, you just.

[Fran]

Yeah, I know.

[Ria]

It's just like your jeans are just cutting across your stomach. Oh, I know that.

[Fran]

You're like, when I went to dinner last week and I unbuttoned my pants under the table.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

Blocked it with my shirt. And I didn't tell anybody. And I said, this has to happen. I can't fucking keep my pants buttoned.

[Ria]

No.

[Fran]

Because it's too tight.

[Ria]

Nothing's worse than wearing your standing jeans to dinner.

[Fran]

And then you're sitting there and you're like, what? I'm unbuttoning these. And I don't care who knows it.

[Ria]

It's just you put yourself in a bad place.

[Fran]

We are going to pick up my dresses today. You're coming with me. I have an irrational fear that kept me up all night last night that the last time I went, I never put my veil on with the dress. I know she has it cause I dropped it off. But I have had this fear hit me last night where I'm like, what if I show up later and she doesn't have.

[Ria]

It's cause you haven't seen it yet.

[Fran]

Because I haven't seen it since I dropped it off the first time. The second time I went, we never Took it out. So I'm like, does she have the veil? Did she misplace it?

[Ria]

I don't know she has it.

[Fran]

The only place it could be is there. Yeah, but I'm like, do I call her? No, I'm gonna see her soon. Why would I call? But, like, this irrational fear of her not having my veil. I started looking up place in New York City that I can get a replacement veil just in case. Even though I have no idea if she has this veil or not. I assume she does, but I didn't see it the last time.

[Ria]

You're like, I already have a veil in my cart. I have a backup plan.

[Fran]

And she doesn't have it.

[Ria]

I have a backup plan because she 100% has it.

[Fran]

Yeah, we'll find out in a couple hours.

[Ria]

100% has it.

[Fran]

We'll find out in a couple hours.

[Ria]

There's no way. I mean, that's like a job description number one for, you know, they have to hold onto these items. They're precious items.

[Fran]

The last time I was there, she was on the phone with somebody, and she was apologizing profusely, and this is something I didn't want to hear. Oh, apologizing profusely. Being like, this has never happened in my entire, like, time of work doing this. Like, she's old, and she's been in the game and, you know, rave reviews. Apologizing profusely. Like, all my times. This has never happened. Da, da, da. As I'm putting on my dress and I'm going, this is not something. It's not something you want to be.

[Ria]

Did you.

[Fran]

I didn't choir. No. I heard bits and pieces.

[Ria]

Right. Maybe that. Maybe it could be the other. Maybe she was a diva.

[Fran]

Maybe it was just a schedule, an appointment or something. Simple as that. I didn't hear exactly what it was, because she was like, telling her, like, you can come at this time, whatever. And I was like, I don't want to be hearing this. What went wrong?

[Ria]

Yeah, right, right.

[Fran]

But I just tried to block it out, and now that's where the does she have my veil? Thing came in. Like, did she misplace this woman's veil?

[Ria]

So did that lady have the exact problem that I.

[Fran]

That I am making up in my head right now? Yeah. Total side note, Some. Some real lore to add something in the office. It was just a random thing that happened. Daryl Strawberry, ex baseball player, popular ex baseball player, was in the office, was.

[Ria]

On the Mets for a long time, right?

[Fran]

Yeah. And I kept having this. This strong connection I was like, why do I know Daryl Strawberry? Like, somewhere in my life, I have passed Darryl Strawberry. Like, I know something having to do.

[Ria]

With the first time that he's. I feel like he came to the old office.

[Fran]

And when I. The last time, I was like, no, I think, like, my brother, when he used to play baseball, I think, like, Dallas Strawberry came to one of, like, the camps or something, like, did something with the kids, but turns out that's not true. And I was just, like, making this up in my head, and it was actually a different base. I don't know. My head was rattling. So I called my dad at work, and I'm like, dad, what is the connection to D. Strawberry? Like, and my dad's like, I don't know. Like. Like, you're thinking of so and so. Like. And you're also naming this baseball field that is not the camp. You're thinking about the whole thing. And I hear my sister in the background being like, we met Daryl Strawberry at ihop. And I'm like, what? And she's like, we met Dallas Strawberry at ihop. And apparently when my house was on fire, long time ago, there was. My house went on fire. This is backstory, but you probably can't.

[Ria]

Say your house is on fire without explaining how your house is on fire.

[Jesse Solomon]

Wait, was that the time where I was, like, asking you for stuff while your house was on fire?

[Fran]

No, no, my house legitimately actually, like, a real fire. Yeah, it was really cold. It was freezing. And my mom and my brother were in Florida. My grandma had broken her back, and my mom went to Florida, and my brother went with her. I think this was during, like, a February break or something at school.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

So my brother.

[Ria]

President's Day weekend or something.

[Fran]

Yeah, something like, you know. Cause we would have. We had a random week off in February, always. And me and my sister stayed with my dad, and my dad was gonna take me and my sister to the movies, and he went to go take a shower, and the pipes were frozen in the shower, so he took a heating torch and try. And my dad is a very, like, construction guy. Like, he knows.

[Ria]

He's a profession.

[Fran]

He knows what he's doing. He didn't know what he was doing here. He lit the whole bathroom on fire. Like, went up in flames, the whole thing. I had a bathroom and an office. Now I just have one large. The reason the bathroom in my house on Long island is so big is because it actually was two separate rooms. But then it went on fire, and they just said, fuck it. We'll just make this into one bathroom because it's just too much. The wall went down. It was a whole thing. The firemen came running through my house like they hosed my entire house down. Like they ruined part of my house. It was a whole thing. I mean, they were doing their job.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

But I remember I ran out of the house with no shoes on because my dad was like, get out, get out, There's a fire. So I ran out with no shoes on. We went to my neighbor's house. My neighbor was like, okay, I'm gonna take you guys to IHOP to distract us.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

While also hiding. And by the way, I'm talking about the neighbors that came to Jonascon.

[Ria]

Yep.

[Fran]

While also hiding the fact that their hamster died the same day. So Mare, who's the mom, hid the dead hamster from all of us because we had a fire going on.

[Ria]

Far too many elements.

[Fran]

And the dead hamster. And she was like, listen, let's just all go to ihop. And apparently, when we were at ihop, we met Daryl Strawberry.

[Ria]

There you go. And it comes all the way.

[Fran]

And it all comes. And I said, damn. If only I knew that when I passed him in the office today, I could have been like, I met you in an IHOP when I was about yay big, no shoes on, and my house was on fire. And he would have been like.

[Ria]

Would have been like, okay, cool.

[Fran]

Don't remember. Yeah, he'd been like, sick.

[Ria]

Is your. Like, what's the follow. What's the appropriate follow up to someone saying that to you? Is your house okay?

[Fran]

Yeah. No, I don't know. And I was young, too. Like, I want to say second or third grade. I don't actually remember exactly which grade it was, but I specifically remember not.

[Ria]

Wearing shoes, which is why I don't really blame you for not specifically remembering.

[Fran]

And we didn't actually. Nobody told my mom that my house went on fire while the whole time she was in Florida. And then she came home and found out we kept. Because she was dealing with my grandma. Broke her back.

[Ria]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Fran]

So my dad was, like, telling, like, all of my. My whole family. Like, do not tell her that this happened.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

And I remember we picked them up from the airport and we had to.

[Ria]

Say, tell them in the car.

[Fran]

No, no, we took them upstairs. Like, nobody said anything in the car. Like, nothing. Like, my dad was just like, we have to show you something. And then we just took them upstairs to see that the upstairs was gone.

[Ria]

It was like a surprise. Surprise, surprise.

[Fran]

The Bathroom burnt down.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

Surprise.

[Ria]

Got something. No more office. Got something to show you on the second floor.

[Fran]

Big renovation happening. We're just gonna have a big bathroom. Yeah. That is what happened. Yes.

[Ria]

Oh, man.

[Fran]

Yeah. Meanwhile, my poor grandma. Her back.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

Rip. That's not why she died. She died from cancer. But that's, you know, whatever. We don't have to get into that. I miss her, though. It's random. I do, though, because. Sorry, I'm rambling.

[Jesse Solomon]

Don't say anything. Let's see how long.

[Ria]

Oh, I'm also sorry. Like, it's just. It's like. It just wasn't funny at all. But you were like, it's not why she died, though.

[Fran]

It's not why. She didn't die from breaking her back. She died from cancer. Very sadly, in 2015. But last week, when I was in Florida and my Nano, me and my nanno were dancing together, and it was so sweet. He was like, oh, I wish my wife was here. She would be so happy to see this. And I was like, then Nano called me this morning, and he's at my house on Long island right now. My parents house.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

And he calls me. He's like, hello. Said, hi. What are you doing? I'm like, I'm getting ready for work. Okay, bye. Bye. And my dad texts me. Omg, tough conversation. I was like. He just rushed me off the phone. But he called me. He's like, yeah, I don't know what that was about.

[Ria]

Yeah. Did he, like, think you were in the house or something?

[Fran]

Yeah, I think maybe. Cause sometimes I think he forgets I don't live there.

[Ria]

Well, everybody else does.

[Fran]

Right? Right. Everyone else lives there. So I live in Jersey. And I think he thinks like, where is she? Like, hello, come downstairs. And I'm not there. And I was like, I'll see you Sunday. He said, okay. I said, oh, riveting conversation.

[Ria]

Not to continue.

[Fran]

Grandma Betty would have added a lot to that conversation.

[Ria]

Not to continue on that sad train for a second. But it did make me think about it, because I really need a. I need another show to throw on. We were talking about er, and I don't know if it's just because I watched the Pit and then Pulse and there's all these medical shows. And I was like, now I got this itch to keep to watch, like, medical shows. So I was like, I've never watched er. Let me throw it on. They were all on Hulu, and I'm watching, and, like, in one of the first episodes, there's just like, Very sweet old married couple. And the. The white. The wife is dying and the husband is like, I don't want her to die. I literally, like, started sobbing. It made me so sad.

[Fran]

That breaks my heart.

[Ria]

So sad. She's talking about their long life together and she's got grandkids.

[Fran]

And I know that is sad. I mean, I'll. I, I'll say this. I spent a couple years ago, I spent some days alone with my nano, and he said to me that when it's his time, he will be okay with it because he'll be reunited with his wife. And I will always remember that. So when he does, sadly, you know, I will carry those words with me.

[Ria]

As you should. As you should.

[Fran]

It was really sweet to hear that from him. But side note, less sad. Speaking of shows, I know Noah knows the answer because I wrote it in our group chat yesterday, but I wanted to have you guess. If I gave you 20 guesses of which show I started yesterday, I don't think you'd ever get it. And I'm interested. I'll give you three.

[Jesse Solomon]

You'll never get it.

[Fran]

Yeah, you will literally never get it, but I'll give you three.

[Ria]

Do I get a hint?

[Jesse Solomon]

Maybe give her, like, five questions. Like 20 questions. Five questions.

[Fran]

But I don't know if I can answer them all. I'm not gonna lie. But there's a lot of seasons, and it was a network show.

[Jesse Solomon]

It's not like it's not on anymore.

[Fran]

There's been spin offs.

[Ria]

It was an. It was on like, like fox, NBC, cbs. Those.

[Fran]

No, not one. Not one of those. It was a network show, right?

[Jesse Solomon]

It was a network show.

[Fran]

Yeah.

[Jesse Solomon]

But it wasn't.

[Fran]

But not one of the ones you named.

[Ria]

So cable.

[Jesse Solomon]

It was on cable.

[Fran]

Yeah, cable. So, yeah, maybe.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Jesse Solomon]

I've actually never watched it, so I don't.

[Ria]

Ooh, many seasons. I would never get it. You just started it.

[Fran]

And I started it. Sort of.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

It's a cable. Cable channel.

[Jesse Solomon]

Cable.

[Ria]

Cable. Okay, so it's on like. And reality or drama.

[Fran]

Drama.

[Ria]

Okay.

[Fran]

And I didn't start it willingly. It was on starting from the first episode at the nail. At the hair salon. But then I got so captivated. I watched three episodes.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Jesse Solomon]

That this might be like a hint, too, that that was playing in a nail salon. Seems like hair salon or hair salon.

[Fran]

They always change it up.

[Ria]

The problem is, is now everything I can think of is just from.

[Fran]

It is a show you would never expect to see on at a hair salon that has a lot of seasons. A Lot of seasons. Not a show you would think I'd ever watch. It's a little like, gory at times.

[Ria]

Ooh, Walking Dead.

[Fran]

Yes. Wow. There you go.

[Ria]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Fran]

Yes. The Walking Dead. I watched three episodes. I was.

[Ria]

People love the Walk. So I've never watched it.

[Fran]

No, people love this.

[Jesse Solomon]

Yeah, it's one of those shows. I hear that, like, they did so many seasons at. At some point it just like fell off.

[Ria]

Well, yeah, but it's like the same. You could say that. If you've never seen Grey's Anatomy. I would still say go back and watch those early season Grey's Anatomy. You know, they're still so good.

[Fran]

But I was.

[Ria]

And the Walking Out. Is they also so many spin offs. No, they do and everything.

[Fran]

I was blown away.

[Ria]

They still make them, I think.

[Fran]

I couldn't wait to see. Yeah, they do.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

I couldn't wait to see what was happening next.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

And I didn't know that I would ever be interested in the Walking Dead, but I was.

[Ria]

Wow. I would have never thought that either.

[Jesse Solomon]

You should give the last of us a chance because it's like, somewhat similar.

[Fran]

Well, now I'm.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

Okay. Well, I can't do multiple zombie shows.

[Ria]

At the same time. No, no, no, no.

[Fran]

I'm only, you know, one at a time.

[Jesse Solomon]

Wait, while we're on the topic of shows that we're watching, I have to go back to the weekly watch part where I said, you. You watched Jon Hamm's new show.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Jesse Solomon]

And I was like, oh, isn't that like, isn't there a murder in that? And you both looked at me like, what are you talking.

[Fran]

Well, I completely.

[Ria]

Well, I didn't know. I didn't.

[Fran]

I didn't watch it in the first episode. Yes.

[Jesse Solomon]

It literally shot is a dead body.

[Fran]

Oh, I blocked it out of my head because.

[Ria]

So there is a murder.

[Fran]

There is. And I knew something big was gonna happen, but I don't know why I just blocked it out.

[Ria]

So is it like a little, like, dead to me esque.

[Jesse Solomon]

The very.

[Fran]

Ooh.

[Jesse Solomon]

I actually enjoyed it the first episode I watched.

[Fran]

So did I. I mean, I gave it a.

[Jesse Solomon]

Like, it opens on Jon Hamm, like waking up next to a dead body next to him, like a murdered entity.

[Fran]

You know, dead to me would be maybe, like, it's not as cheeky.

[Ria]

Okay.

[Fran]

You know.

[Ria]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Fran]

But it's a bit more dramatic.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

Okay. But I think there's still funny.

[Ria]

I saw that our guy James Marston signed on to join the second season.

[Fran]

Oh, he did of your friends and neighbors. He would fit perfectly into that.

[Ria]

He's also in debt to me. That's what I thought of it too.

[Fran]

While we're also on the topic of tv.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

Least favorite episode of the Studio.

[Jesse Solomon]

I agree.

[Ria]

Oh, I haven't watched it yet. Shoot.

[Jesse Solomon]

Not like least favorite is still, like, I enjoyed it.

[Fran]

Still enjoyable.

[Ria]

But yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Jesse Solomon]

Around, like, his assistant who, like, give me celebrities.

[Ria]

Oh. Oh, I do remember. I saw the preview was about Chase. So he wonders.

[Fran]

Yeah. And I will say this.

[Jesse Solomon]

That's Chasey. We wonders.

[Fran]

Yes.

[Jesse Solomon]

Oh, I didn't even realize.

[Fran]

I will say, you hear Chris Hemsworth's name mentioned. You think you're getting Chris Hemsworth?

[Jesse Solomon]

That's what I thought. I was like, are you. He's going to meet with Chris Hemsworth.

[Fran]

He said he's going to meet with Chris Hemsworth. So you think, oh, my God, we're get a Chris Hemsworth cameo.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

No.

[Jesse Solomon]

Yeah.

[Fran]

So don't get excited. So don't get excited.

[Ria]

Okay.

[Fran]

You can't when you say Zac Efron.

[Ria]

Yeah, right, right, right.

[Fran]

And then she's getting Zac Efron.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

And then he says, Chris Hemsworth.

[Jesse Solomon]

He's gonna have martinis with him. That would have been great.

[Ria]

I mean, that's what they said.

[Fran]

Martinis with Chris Hemsworth. And I'm like, oh, my God, we're gonna get him having martinis with Chris Hemsworth. I was pumped. I was like, this is gonna be amazing.

[Jesse Solomon]

No storyline. I was like, I don't really care.

[Fran]

Yeah, I'm in agreement. Yeah.

[Jesse Solomon]

Just.

[Fran]

But.

[Jesse Solomon]

But still solid.

[Fran]

Still solid, but just not as good there.

[Ria]

I have to watch still.

[Fran]

Yeah, well, don't expect Chris Hemsworth.

[Ria]

I will. I will make sure I don't get too excited for Chris.

[Fran]

Leave your expectations low because Chris Hemsworth is not in this episode.

[Ria]

No Chris Hemsworth.

[Fran]

Noted. All right, let's get into the rest of the show. By the way, sorry. The Walking Dead again.

[Ria]

Will I just turn that on?

[Jesse Solomon]

Yeah.

[Ria]

Oh, I, like, looked at my. I saw the light appear. I was like, oh, there we go. You put the sign on.

[Jesse Solomon]

It barely shows on camera.

[Fran]

Yeah. I have yet to, like. Right now just feels like a tough time to be, like, watching the Walking Dead, you know? Like, I don't know how much time I'm gonna have to, like, watch all the episodes of the Walking Dead in the next week or on my honeymoon. I don't foresee me watching the Walking Dead on my honeymoon, but, like, I'm gonna table it, and it is something That I could see because I went to go look something up yesterday after the third episode and I was like, no, no, just wait and go watch it because I want to know what happened. But I'm like, don't do that to yourself. Just watch the show. So we'll table it for now.

[Ria]

There you go.

[Fran]

One more thing before we get in to the show.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

I got word from somebody who spoke to Kenny Ortega directly because they've been lucky enough to meet and be mentored by Kenny Ortega.

[Ria]

Okay.

[Fran]

You know, I don't want to give the full background here, but they had sent him the High School Musical clip that we posted.

[Ria]

The question. The question about the spring musicale.

[Fran]

Yes. To get feedback.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

Number one, it's the winter musicale, not the spring one.

[Ria]

True.

[Fran]

There's a scene where an opera singer auditions and Ms. Darbus says, perhaps for the spring musicale.

[Ria]

Right.

[Fran]

So it's actually the winter musicale. And number two, Bop to the Top wasn't a song written by Kelsey for the musical. It was a song Sharpay and Ryan chose because they wanted to show off their talent.

[Ria]

Right. Good clarification. That's so true. Bop to the Top wasn't part of the actual show that Kelsey had written.

[Fran]

No, it was. And because they always messed around with Kelsey's music, remember, this was just a song Sharpe and Ryan wanted to use to showcase their talent.

[Ria]

Got you, got you. So it was that source.

[Fran]

Yeah. So, and this is confirmed from Kenny Ortega and she said she could provide screenshots. So we're gonna take it from the man, right?

[Ria]

No, I believe that for sure. I think. I think the question really threw us for a loop where we were like, oh, my God. You're like. But yes, these are really.

[Fran]

Think about it.

[Ria]

Yeah. Like, it's actually a very simple answer.

[Fran]

Yes.

[Ria]

Kelsey wrote the winter musical and Sharpay.

[Fran]

And Ryan always just performed their own songs and.

[Ria]

And they just took another song from something else to show it and they were like. And everything else. That's why Troy and Gabriella worked with Kelsey. Because it was her music.

[Fran]

Yes, exactly. There we go. There's clarification.

[Ria]

All right, Clean our hands of that one.

[Fran]

Feel a lot better going into the weekend now. Anyways, moving on, let's get into the topics for today's show. We're going to be talking about the new Love island spin off show, Life after the Villa. People have been asking for that. There were rumors that Billie Eilish and Miley Cyrus were going to be on Lil Wayne's album the Carter Six. But now it seems like Lil Wayne is maybe just stealing a samp from Billie Eilish. And Miley will be on it, but Miley will be on it, which I fucking love.

[Ria]

But I don't really understand the musical lingo behind how they described the Billie Eilish credit.

[Fran]

Confused about that, but we'll get into it. Justin Bieber's former circles worried about him as a rep slams reports that he's in million dollars worth of date debt.

[Ria]

Not good.

[Fran]

And we're going to be talking about the time 100 most influential people list some shockers on there. Yeah, for sure. And we have an interview with Jesse Solomon talking all about Summer House behind the scenes. Whatever you guys want to know, we're gonna get. We're gonna get into it. So let's get to the topics. Oh, and trivia.

[Ria]

Got a long episode.

[Fran]

We do stacked episode today.

[Ria]

Jam packed.

[Fran]

Yeah, you're welcome, folks. The best show on Earth.

[Ria]

What would you expect from the best show on Earth?

[Fran]

You know, we should get jerseys like this one I'm wearing right now where it just says the best show on earth in small letters that only me.

[Jesse Solomon]

And you front is the best show. And then on.

[Fran]

And then on Earth. Yeah, good idea. All right, let's get into it with the Truly getaway pack. Each sip is your ticket to an exotic escape. Take a trip with Truly this spring, and by doing so, you gotta pick up the getaway pack for four exotic flavors inspired by drinks from around the world. You have Arctic Berry, Mountain paradise, which is my favorite flavor, Rainforest Retreat and Tropic like it's hot. Only available for a limited time. So you don't want to miss out on making a little trip with Truly to get that Truly getaway pack. So get it while you can. It's still only 100 calories, 1 gram of sugar and 5% alcohol. My personal favorite is the Mountain paradise. But all four flavors are absolutely delicious. You guys are going to love them. So find the getaway pack at a store near you or visit www.trulyhardseltzer.com Peacock officially announced a Love island spin off show. I think people were waiting for this. They wrote, you asked, we listened. Love island beyond the Villa. Parentheses. Working title, Working title Coming this summer with Janae, Craig, Aaron Evans, Miguel, Leah, Kaylor, Connor, Serena, Kenny, Olivia. Why am I naming their full names Liv and Kendall? I'm literally reading the thing when I could have just named your names, but very exciting. Yeah, I think I'm kind of shocked by this cast. I thought that Leah, Miguel, would be like, fuck off. I'm never doing something like this ever again. But, you know, maybe the. The timing was right. Maybe the way that it was proposed was right. The one shocking thing is Cordell's not mentioned. And people are like, why isn't Cordell mentioned? There are rumors that maybe he got cast for traitors. And they're like, okay, maybe he's going to do something else so he can't film this show right now. But Kaylor has been definitely posting a lot, hinting at things, tagging Peacock looking like she's filming confessionals and whatnot. So I, you know, I'm. I'm all in on a. On a spinoff show. I'm shocked by the Connor edition.

[Ria]

Yeah. Good for you, Connor.

[Fran]

Yeah. How'd you slip in there? Rob couldn't.

[Ria]

Rob? Well, Rob was not available. Rob's not on there.

[Fran]

Rob did say on his Snapchat or wherever it was, someone asked and he said, I will not be a part of it. It might have been Instagram story. He said, I will not be a part of it. So maybe Aaron. I. I'm shocked that Aaron.

[Ria]

There's a lot of elements to this. I'm surprised by. Like, I'm shocked by Aaron too, because it does feel like socially a lot of them are still seeing each other, so it makes sense. I feel like we've seen Kendall with Liv and Kaler a lot. And do you think that Kendall and.

[Fran]

Liv are trying to bait people into thinking they're dating?

[Ria]

Um, not even necessarily. Not like bait people into think they're dating, but I think just create conversation.

[Jesse Solomon]

Yeah. They knew that was gonna get engagement. Like, it's gonna get comments.

[Ria]

Yeah. And I don't think they're trying to get anyone to be like, ooh, they're dating. I think it's the same shit that they do with the Montana Boys. Like when they posted the Montana Boys, I'm like, well, you know, whether that was hookups or blah, blah, blah or whatever, but it is. And then of course you have, you know, ppg. And maybe it's like Leah was like, if. If Serena and Janay are gonna do it, I'm in. And it's also different. Cause it's not Love Island. It's a whole something Love Island's never. At least Love Island USA has never done before, where now it's more of, like, good. My guess is just their day to days.

[Fran]

Yeah.

[Ria]

And what life is like beyond the villa. Working title?

[Fran]

Working title.

[Jesse Solomon]

Like in.

[Ria]

I just don't know. Like, Aaron. I feel Like, I haven't seen in the mix at all.

[Fran]

No. I think maybe that's why it'll draw some even more people.

[Ria]

Right.

[Fran]

Like, we haven't seen him. What's he up to?

[Ria]

Is he even in the United States?

[Fran]

I don't think so, but I think that they'll just follow him wherever he is.

[Ria]

Then it's like. Then it all gets kind of thrown together. I'm very intrigued by this. I wonder if they'll change the name, since working title. Very important to note put in the announcement. But Love island beyond the Villa does kind. That's what it was, Right. Love island beyond the Villa. I mean, it makes sense. You don't have to be on the.

[Fran]

Villa, workshop it too much.

[Ria]

You don't really have to overthink it. Beyond the Villa makes sense. Yeah.

[Fran]

Like, you know, maybe they said working title because they don't want people to get mad at that title. But I think if they were to go with that title, it's fine. Right. Like, I don't think you have to work it that much.

[Ria]

Right. Totally. Maybe. No, that would actually not make any sense. Just kidding.

[Fran]

What?

[Ria]

I was like, maybe Cordell will be doing Love Island Games. But why would he go on Love Island Games?

[Fran]

He's in a relationship.

[Ria]

Yeah, no, I kind of forget sometimes that Love Island Games, like, has the romance element to it, too.

[Fran]

The most likely, I think, aspect would be that he's doing Traitors.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

Which would be fucking amazing.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

If he was doing Traders, it would.

[Jesse Solomon]

Be good, I think.

[Ria]

Yeah, I think he'd be great.

[Fran]

Yeah, I think he'd be a terrible traitor. No, but actually he might be a good traitor because people would never suspect him as a traitor.

[Ria]

Yeah, I kind of think that too.

[Fran]

But I would love to see him on that show because they're together and.

[Jesse Solomon]

Well, you know, shows would have to have no overlap. Cause then it's like if they're filming this beyond the Villa and he finishes Traitors, and he comes back and she's still filming. Like, is he just, like, not allowed to be in the show?

[Ria]

I don't know. I'm very confused by that. I just don't see a world where, like, Serena's filming. Serena's life wouldn't have Cordell in it in some way.

[Fran]

Right. I mean, I'm sure it'll be mentioned and people are like, oh, my God, did they split up? I'm like, no, they were just together at Coachella. Like, there's no way they split up. And even if. Even. Even if they did Split up. They would probably film that, like, but I don't think that's the case whatsoever. So it's very interesting. He wasn't named, and I'm like, they can't just forget him. It's not like they just. They. They remember to put Connor in and didn't. Didn't remember to put Cordell, like, something. Something.

[Ria]

Yeah, for sure.

[Fran]

And I think for sure he's probably.

[Ria]

Doing a show, especially when they have literally everybody else but Rob. But Rob has said he wasn't, like, he was out.

[Fran]

No, I'm.

[Ria]

So it was like, you know, it makes sense. And Cordell doesn't say anything about it. He's totally just doing another show.

[Fran]

I'm very convinced Connor got the call because Rob said no.

[Ria]

Right, right, right. They need, like, a single. Another, like, single guy in the mix.

[Fran]

Like, they're like, they're just. Yeah, there has to. Has to be the only reason.

[Ria]

I. I. Yeah, I think that makes sense because all those other couples are still very much together, so.

[Fran]

Right. You know, and I don't imagine them all filming together all the time.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

They're gonna put them in a house and film them. I think they're just, like, filming them separately. Sorta.

[Ria]

Yeah. But then they all have to be together. Like, it's got to be kind of.

[Fran]

Maybe. Maybe that's why Rob's not involved.

[Ria]

Yeah. It has to, like, kind of be Real Housewives vibes.

[Fran]

Right. Where it's like, eventually, yeah.

[Ria]

Their day to days are being filmed, but then these four people are going out to dinner together or. Or live in Kayla or hosting a party that everybody's coming to. You know, there has to be, like, Kardashians.

[Jesse Solomon]

Like, they're all separate lives but intertwined. Like.

[Ria]

Yeah, that's different because they're family. You know, it's like their family. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Fran]

Yes.

[Ria]

But I'm very excited for this.

[Fran]

Me too. I think it's gonna be great.

[Ria]

I'm curious to see, like, when obviously, if they're just announcing it. Kayla's posting filming. I wonder when will see this, like, if it'll be all the way. My guess is still, like, the end of this year.

[Fran]

I'd imagine it'll be post Love island season seven.

[Ria]

Yeah, for sure. Oh, for sure.

[Fran]

Like, they'll do it after and they'll give. Because people miss Love island again. But then they'll be like, but wait, we have.

[Ria]

Right.

[Fran]

Last season's cast with the behind the Villa.

[Ria]

Right, right, right, right. I'm guessing I'll go, like, season Seven, maybe that show. And then Love Island Games.

[Fran]

Yeah.

[Ria]

I don't know when Love Island Games is.

[Fran]

I know I asked you that the other night.

[Ria]

Yeah, you were. Yeah. I don't know.

[Fran]

I went down a rabbit hole trying to find out when Love Island Games is happening because I was like, they announced that it was coming back, but it came out, like, during the winter time last year.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

So I don't know.

[Ria]

Yeah. Maybe they're waiting for another cast of potential contestants.

[Fran]

Yeah.

[Ria]

You know, like, if they do it after season seven, there could be a whole another group of people that could potentially go on because they'll have a, you know, true season seven people could go on.

[Fran]

You need some fresh meat.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

Yeah. Then season seven, it'll air. People will miss the season six cast, of course, and then they'll give them this behind the Villa show and be like, oh, you're welcome.

[Ria]

Right? Here they all are.

[Fran]

But I'm excited for all things Love island coming up. In general.

[Ria]

Same. I can't wait for a new season. I'm like, in Love island withdrawal, like, after the other ones all ended.

[Fran]

I know. I can't wait. It's gonna be so good. Just like that time of the year, you know, summer.

[Ria]

Love Island.

[Fran]

Love it. So there was random rumors that Billie Eilish, Miley Cyrus were gonna be on Lil Wayne's the Carter Six album, which I didn't even know he was making. I'm excited. Miley Cyrus is on the album. Billie Eilish not on the album.

[Jesse Solomon]

And it wasn't a random rumor. It was in the Rolling Stone article that came out for Lil Wayne.

[Fran]

But Billie Eilish is not featured willingly on this album.

[Ria]

Yeah. No. What does it say?

[Jesse Solomon]

Yeah, it says Billie Eilish feature. It's not a collaboration. It is an uncleared sample. So basically, Lil Wayne just like sampled some. Her voice from some song and is probably just rapping over it as like a beat. And that apparently isn't cleared by her. So I don't know if that'll be like, not in the album or if they'll just clear it and it will be in the album.

[Ria]

Yeah, that's very confusing to me, being like, oh, it's an unclear. When you read that to me the first time, it was like uncleared samples. It's like, oh, so that sounds bad.

[Fran]

Yeah, no, that sounds like they're using.

[Ria]

Billy's because, like, song without permission and that doesn't sound good.

[Jesse Solomon]

And stuff where you rap over, like, you sample a song and rap over. You probably don't have their permission. But if you're writing on like your album, you obviously need to get like legal.

[Ria]

Yeah. I wonder if they like asked her label.

[Jesse Solomon]

Billy probably saw that headline today and the labels that.

[Ria]

Yeah, like I so confused and honestly, like if she wonder what's on. Although I could hear some little like happy. Happier than ever into a Lil Wayne song.

[Fran]

But if she was asked then I feel like she'd be willing to do it. But if you're not asked and it just gets stolen, that's where then pisses you off because you're like, you could have.

[Ria]

Right, Right. Oh, bless you Came out of nowhere.

[Fran]

I didn't even know that was coming.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

There was no warm up. There's no.

[Ria]

There was no tangle in your nose.

[Fran]

Nothing. That one came out of nowhere.

[Jesse Solomon]

Andrea Bocelli is on the album.

[Fran]

Oh my God. That's amazing.

[Jesse Solomon]

Apparently.

[Ria]

Wow.

[Fran]

Wow.

[Ria]

Quite the.

[Fran]

My favorite group. You got married in Italy.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

My favorite singer.

[Ria]

Yep.

[Fran]

That's quite the group.

[Jesse Solomon]

That really is so funny because every article now that you go it still says Billie Eilish. Like that's just gonna be.

[Ria]

Yeah. I mean I guess to whatever. The Rolling Stone.

[Jesse Solomon]

They really fucked up.

[Ria]

Yeah, right. Was like Rolling Stone wrote it that way. Now they're probably backtracking so hard. And that's probably. I wonder if like Billy's team even. I wonder if they're finding out about it from that. Which is probably not right.

[Fran]

They're probably. Well, pay up then. You can use this.

[Ria]

Yeah, I have a lot of questions about that. Not gonna lie. Doesn't sound clear. Don't think they know what's happening with it either.

[Jesse Solomon]

This says one song on the Carter. This is the Carter five six. Will include opera titan Andrea Bocelli singing Ava Maria.

[Ria]

Damn. Okay.

[Fran]

That may slap. You never know.

[Ria]

Okay. Okay. Lil Wayne also said in the Rolling Stone article that he will never do the super bowl halftime show. The moments passed like they had seems.

[Jesse Solomon]

Really butthurt about it.

[Ria]

Yeah. Well, it's just like they had the chance. I think he feels taken advantage of by the NFL. It's like he got let let on.

[Jesse Solomon]

He said he didn't watch Kendricks. He's like, I never like every time I like looked at it, I wasn't really interested in what he was doing.

[Ria]

Well, yeah, I know he was like respect to Kendricks, but I just can't. Yeah, he's.

[Fran]

He's really salty.

[Ria]

He's pissed about it. You know. New Orleans. Yeah. Yeah.

[Jesse Solomon]

That's like me saying I won't date Sydney Sweeney.

[Fran]

It's like, well, no, it's not the same. Not even the same level.

[Ria]

What's even close?

[Fran]

Lil Wayne actually probably could do.

[Ria]

He absolutely could.

[Fran]

Not trying to be harsh, but, yeah, you know, the level is not the same.

[Jesse Solomon]

It's not the same. But you get what I'm saying.

[Fran]

I get what you're saying for sure.

[Jesse Solomon]

Like, I don't think.

[Ria]

I think the NFL. I think he's more mad because I think they probably had conversations about it. My guess is they probably had conversations. He got excited about it, and then they. And then, like, because of the. And then because of the moment and everything, they were like, no, we're gonna go with Kendrick.

[Fran]

We want the more popular.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

We want the headlines and stuff. But, hey, well, he, you know, super bowl doesn't have to worry now because.

[Ria]

Don'T expect to see him ever perform, whether it's his own show or even performing with somebody else off the table.

[Fran]

Not happening. Don't count on it.

[Ria]

Yep.

[Fran]

Um, and I would bet you can also count on not hearing Billie Eilish on his album, because it feels like.

[Ria]

Yeah, that's not. Yeah.

[Jesse Solomon]

People are still saying, though, like, it's an uncleared sample, as if that's gonna go on the album. Like, so I'm confused by that.

[Ria]

It just feels like kind of like a risky. A risky game. And from a quick Google, an uncleared sample, which is what we're. You know, we're right that it's just, you know, sampling without permission and it could lead to legal action. Some people just do it and they don't care about it because they don't get sued and it's fine.

[Fran]

Yeah, Billie Eilish, they're going to sue.

[Jesse Solomon]

That's what I. I had the opposite take.

[Ria]

Noah says he doesn't think so.

[Jesse Solomon]

Artist to artist, she probably is like, a fan of Lil Wayne and is like, yeah, like, you use it. Like, why not?

[Ria]

Like, I don't think that that's how it works anymore. At all. Like, I'm pretty sure people are like, you need to ask for permission to use my song.

[Fran]

That makes sense.

[Jesse Solomon]

No, I completely get if she does sue, but I. I also could see her being, like, a cool artist who's like, yeah, I love Lil Wayne. Like, I'm honored that you would, like, sample.

[Fran]

I would be like, I love Lil Wayne, but I want to get paid.

[Ria]

Yeah, exactly.

[Fran]

Like, sure, but you're gonna pay me, right?

[Ria]

Like, that's cool that you want to use my song and all, but it's my song and like, but you're.

[Fran]

Pay up.

[Ria]

Yeah. You're gonna make all the money from it. But it's sampling my song.

[Jesse Solomon]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Fran]

I didn't even know. Side note. I didn't even know Lil Wayne was coming out with the Carter 6.

[Ria]

I mean, this was nice to me today as well. Of course. I mean, I have the Carter 5.

[Fran]

We all know the drama behind the Carter 5. Where were you when the Carter 5 dropped? Do you not. I'm looking at. You don't remember.

[Ria]

To be honest, I have no clue. When I don't know the drama. 2018, and I have no idea.

[Fran]

You didn't.

[Jesse Solomon]

I remember we saw him perform at the Super Bowl.

[Ria]

When did the Carter 5 come out?

[Jesse Solomon]

It was like, 2018, when we got the Super bowl, maybe 2019.

[Fran]

He came out in 2018. But you guys don't know the lore. He couldn't.

[Jesse Solomon]

I know he, like, couldn't.

[Fran]

Years and years and years. He couldn't release the album because Birdman had him under, like, a crazy contract. He couldn't release this album. And then finally.

[Ria]

Oh, I do remember this.

[Fran]

He was able to release.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

The album, but it was, like, years.

[Ria]

When did the Carter come out?

[Fran]

The Carter 5 was supposed to be released in 2014.

[Ria]

Oh.

[Fran]

And it didn't get released till 2018.

[Ria]

Yeah. Damn. You know, that'll crush the momentum.

[Fran]

He had a lot of disputes with Birdman. I actually loved the Carter 5, though.

[Jesse Solomon]

I will say, great songs.

[Fran]

I think there's some bangers on there.

[Jesse Solomon]

So I like one about him. I mean, it's kind of depressing, but, like, trying to kill himself.

[Fran]

I. I actually really love that song.

[Jesse Solomon]

That's a good song.

[Ria]

The Carter Six will be very interesting.

[Fran]

Yeah.

[Ria]

Well, with all these. With all these additional things.

[Fran]

All right, moving on.

[Ria]

With all these additional features and potential lawsuit.

[Fran]

Yeah. It'll be interesting to see unfold.

[Jesse Solomon]

I wonder what Billy song he did sample.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

Now I do want to know.

[Ria]

I'm really stuck on it being happier than ever. I don't know why.

[Jesse Solomon]

Bad guy, but I don't know why.

[Ria]

No, I. I think like this.

[Fran]

You've already hopped on that.

[Ria]

I think, like, the slow beginning of Happy.

[Fran]

What's my terminology today? I hopped on that slap banger. Like, chill out.

[Ria]

He already hopped on that track.

[Fran]

Yeah. Yeah. Nah, Justin already hopped on that, little bro. Relax.

[Ria]

Yeah, but can you imagine, like, the beginning of Happier than ever?

[Fran]

Happier than ever is my. Is my favorite Billie Eilish.

[Ria]

Yeah, I could see it being that.

[Fran]

So that would be cool. But, you know, legally.

[Ria]

[Fran]

Moving on. Which way? You know, this is a, this is a tired topic at this point, but it was reported that Justin Bieber's past circle is worried about him and his rep slammed reports that he's millions of dollars.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

In debt. Listen, I don't know what else to say anymore. Justin Bieber is at Sexy Red's like birthday party.

[Jesse Solomon]

Like he was having the time of his life.

[Fran]

Having the time his life. Posting. He's literally posting like on his story, tagging people, being like a night will never forget. Like, yeah, I saw that. Yeah. And I'm just like, what? Like I, I don't know. Like I'm trying to like refrain judgment because he is going through something that is sad. But is he not going through something? Like, right.

[Ria]

Judging him?

[Fran]

Like, are we judging him? And he's actually perfectly fine. Like that's why I'm trying to like reserve judgment. But at the same time, we all know that it looks a little weird, right?

[Ria]

The optics.

[Fran]

You know what I mean? Like the optics don't look great.

[Ria]

You know what I will say though, I did love seeing him post still with his friend Chaz from back in the day. That's an early Bieber fan throwback. Was like he had his friends from Canada that were like his best friends and everyone knew who they were. And I'm glad that he's still in the mix. Like that made me happy to see him still in the mix. I was like, ah, that's a hometown friend.

[Fran]

Keep your hometown friends around.

[Ria]

Exactly. And also looks like he I don't know for this to be coming from the story was published in People. I think it coming from his old quote unquote like old camp is very telling too because he's really dropped like all those people and I don't fully trust that old camp because I don't think they had Justin's best interest in heart at heart for a lot of things. And Justin now looks like he's also dropping some new some new clothes and a new clothing line.

[Fran]

And Haley said she's working on her favorite jacket of all time, Skylark. Skylark.

[Ria]

I wonder if that's an odd to Chip and I think that and Drew and Drew Hess is not him anymore.

[Fran]

He said no longer exists because I'm.

[Ria]

Sure no it exists.

[Fran]

Well with him.

[Ria]

With him it's just he's not attached to it anymore. That's what I'm saying. Like it's like the old people are still running it I think because I mean I got an email about a Drew House drop leg last week.

[Fran]

So yeah, I don't know. Just the optics. Just like.

[Ria]

The People article said, people once close to Justin Bieber are concerned about him. He is facing a lot of different demons right now. The source says. He's making some really poor decisions lately, further impacting friendships, money and business. The Insider adds people are worried about him. Among the stressors that Bieber is dealing with, allegedly they they mentioned the Diddy trial coming up, strained relationship with former manager Scooter Braun. Bieber has also publicly severed ties with his fashion brand Drew House. He's got his new clothing line called Skylark coming out. This update comes after a former team member told the Hollywood Reporter that Bieber was quote, lost. Seeing him disintegrate like this, it's watching the embodiment of someone not living their purpose. The former team member told the publication in an article. He's lost or no one protecting him because there's no one there willing to say no to him. You say no to him, you get blown out. A rep for Bieber slammed this story and the source saying this is just clickbait stupidity based on unnamed and clearly ill informed sources disappointed that they are no longer working with Justin. As Justin forges his own way forward, these unnecessary stories and inaccurate assumptions will continue, but they won't deter him from staying committed to following the right path. It's crazy. I mean I can only imagine that there are plenty of people that he's worked with in the past that, like, would sell a story about him or, like, try and make it sound like he's not okay because they're not all working together anymore. It's like, oh, paint him in the bad light instead of painting the former team in a bad light. Right on that side. So I'd like to give Justin the benefit. The doubt on that one, but I don't know. It's tough. It's a lot. It's. It's really. It's a. You know, it's old camp versus new camp. It's like, just a lot going on right now, really is.

[Fran]

And it's getting a little repetitive, I feel, but.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

You know.

[Ria]

Right, right, right.

[Fran]

I understand.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

Optics wise.

[Ria]

Yeah. It just feels like every week there's, like, a new thing and new announcements. Like, oh, now it's. You know, now it's Skylark and not Drew House and all these. It's like, wait, where is this coming from?

[Fran]

And like.

[Ria]

And like, what. Where? Who's funding this all? Because I know the money thing has kind of been a big thing. They also squash it. Like, he was in all this massive debt because of him ending the tour. Like, whatever. Not doing the tour. You know that he lost a lot of money from. From doing that.

[Fran]

Sell his catalog for, like, $400 million.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Jesse Solomon]

Yeah.

[Fran]

So how's he in debt?

[Ria]

Lucky. A guy like him, I bet you could spend 400 mil.

[Fran]

Pretty.

[Jesse Solomon]

Yeah. And someone who's selling their catalog, I feel like someone who's, like, spending a lot of money.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Jesse Solomon]

Like, I need more money.

[Ria]

Right.

[Jesse Solomon]

Like, I feel like most people in this day and age, like, want to own their music. Like, he's young.

[Fran]

Well, you know.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

Haley's bringing in the money from road.

[Jesse Solomon]

Yeah. She's probably the breadwinner.

[Ria]

I saw rumors that it was like, is Haley gonna sell road to some big. Some big cosmetic, like, company just to help? You know, that's when that. Obviously, that's. There's no facts behind that at all, but I think it's just because they're talking about potential money issues. It's like, oh, is.

[Jesse Solomon]

Just go perform at another wedding.

[Fran]

Seriously? Yeah. You make a quick. Some quick money.

[Ria]

Yeah. Yeah. So you can come to yours. I don't know. I don't know what's going on.

[Fran]

Hey, Justin, you got one week.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

I don't have a lump sum to pay you. Right.

[Ria]

It won't be $10 million.

[Fran]

Well, not at all.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

Just a good time.

[Ria]

Yeah. But you'll love the food.

[Fran]

Yeah, the food will be Great. The people will be great. You know, good vibes.

[Ria]

Exactly.

[Fran]

Last topic, the Times 100 Most Influential People came out. Congrats to Nikki Glaser, first and foremost, because she deserves it. Quite a year she's had. Huge congratulations to her in a judgy way.

[Ria]

Do you sometimes feel like you look at these lists and anybody you see that you're, like, really happy for that makes the list? You're like, wow, congratulations. That's so exciting. You made this list. And then anybody that you see that, like, you don't like this on the list is like, this list means nothing.

[Fran]

Well, yes, yes.

[Ria]

I'm like, what even is this list?

[Fran]

Right.

[Ria]

That's why you people pay to be on this list.

[Fran]

Exactly. That's right. You try to separate it. You're like, congratulations to Nikki Glaser. She deserves this. You know, having quite the year.

[Ria]

But then we're like, how did. What.

[Fran]

How did.

[Ria]

How did Blake Lyly's publicist get her into the. Into the Titans category on the stage?

[Fran]

That is the confusing part of it, because not to. Not to do the Blake Lively pile on. Yeah, but I'm just not gathering how she made it on the Titans list.

[Ria]

I'm gonna.

[Fran]

But I want to separate them because I am happy for Nikki Glaser. So. You're right. It's like, you know, how do you decide who you're happy for and who you're like, right. This is a fake fucking list that they pay for. I do think that some people pay to be on.

[Ria]

Yeah, for sure.

[Fran]

For sure. And I do think some people get.

[Ria]

Asked, I think, very political.

[Fran]

That is, like, for majority of these things, like when they do the Forbes da da, da and whatever, I think it is split between people who they are, like, asking to be in it, and they're like, honoring those people split versus people who are like, I will pay to be in it. And they make it happen.

[Jesse Solomon]

A lot of it seems like a popularity contest, I think.

[Fran]

Yeah.

[Ria]

And I also.

[Fran]

I gotta pull.

[Ria]

Well, I think a lot of it is.

[Fran]

I gotta be honest, I only saw Nikki Glazer and Blake Lively, you know?

[Ria]

Yeah. I think what a comparison. It's a lot of political. He trumps on.

[Jesse Solomon]

You know what I'm saying? But, like, they're not asking him. He's on a.

[Ria]

No, no. A lot of it is very political. There's people. And I'm sure people's public get involved where it's like, hey. And also these lists come out. These journalists know they want people to talk about them. What's going to make people talk about this list. Putting Blake Lively on the list. You know what I'm saying? Like, but you see like Ed Sheeran.

[Fran]

And you're like, oh, my God.

[Ria]

So like, yeah, yeah. For art, there's four, five different categories that they put on. Actually six. It's artists, icons, leaders, titans, pioneers and innovators. So in the artist category you have Ed Sheeran, Scarlett Johansson, Daniel Dae Kim, Kristen Bell, Adam Scott, Rashida Jones, Diego Luna, Nicole Scherzinger, Kristen Wiig, Willy Chavaria, Danielle Deadweiler, Hosier Miranda July, Brandon Jacobs Jenkins, Mohammed Rasuloff, Annabelle Selldorf, Yoshitoma Nara. So you have like, it's, you know, it's fashion, it's music, it's editorial.

[Fran]

Pause for one second. Kiki Palmer not in this. So cut. When I said that she nominated somebody else because I think she was in it last year. Sorry.

[Ria]

So in the artist category, I mean, it's all over the place for actors, musicians, you know, fashion news, all that, all that jazz. And then when you go over, you're like, okay, awesome. And then when you go into icons, Jalen Hurts, the icons. Yes, I was that when I saw that, I was like, wow, this list is fantastic. You know, it's like they really got it right. But it is icon.

[Fran]

But it is the comparison of like there's some people on this list are like, no.

[Ria]

And it is cool that they do get like other very obviously influential people to do the write up. So it's like Jalen Hurts is written by Derek Jeter. Like, that's sick. But in the icons one, then you have some other art like Demi Moore is in the icons, Adrien Brody's in icons, Bobby Brown, David Muir is in there, which is an interesting one too. And but it's like I find it to be political when it comes to the artist celebrity aspect of it. And then when you get to, you know, the world leaders of it all, it's like, you know, they're just listening. They're just listening. They're listing the influential world leaders, like, you know, whatever. Elon Musk and Trump and all them are on, on here. Titans, you have Serena Williams, Lauren Michaels, Simone Biles, Joe Rogan, Zuckerberg and Blake Lively.

[Fran]

Blake Lively just slipped right into the.

[Ria]

Titans and it's, and it's a very.

[Fran]

Weird that she's not in the artist. She's going to be a part of this list that she's not in like the artist titans.

[Ria]

Yeah, she's a titan of her Titan.

[Fran]

Of the Industry titan of the industry.

[Ria]

That's my first, I think, like making.

[Fran]

Strides in your industry.

[Ria]

Yeah. And I will say it is a very positive write up, which, you know, of course it is. This is what it is. You know, it's not. It. The write up calls to more of her philanthropic choices and how closely she's worked with the NAACP Legal Defense Fund. And there's nothing really, you know, in the acting world or anything like that that's a part of this. It's really just completely more for the philanthropic work that she's done and how she has been committed to learning, expanding that so obviously showing her in the most positive lights that they could. Which makes sense for, you know, how this has. How the news has gone for her in. In the last year or so. So. Yeah, but it's like you were saying.

[Fran]

But everybody's in different part of it made up list.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

Who gives a shit? And then like, no. Jalen Hurts and Nikki Laser.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

Yay.

[Ria]

But it's cool to really like kind of go through and see what the other. Other people that are on here. And they're all. The categories are all very synonymous to me in some things, like innovators, pioneers, titans. What. What differentiates you being.

[Fran]

Which can you put a definition under each title?

[Ria]

Right. Like you could be an innovator who's also a pioneer, who's also a titan.

[Fran]

Yeah.

[Ria]

But Nikki Glaser is in the innovators category as well as Snoop Dogg written by Hoda, which I thought I. Which was great too. I love that. I saw that. I was like, hell, yeah.

[Fran]

And then Gleaser written by Ali Wong.

[Ria]

Yeah. John M. Chu is in the Innovator as well.

[Fran]

Lorne Michaels written by Will Ferrell.

[Ria]

Yeah. Yep.

[Jesse Solomon]

Nick Offerman writing about Adam Scott's were kind of funny.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Jesse Solomon]

He goes. If you like slightly awkward but inexplicably confident juvenile otters, you're gonna go simply apeshit for Adams. I don't know what that means, but yeah.

[Ria]

Sounds like something Nick Offerman would say, but yeah, it's just. It's one of those lists where what, 100%, like, you see somebody that you're, you know, close with or friends. You know, it's like, I'm like, you agree with it. And then. Yes.

[Fran]

The other parts of the list, you're like, oh, okay.

[Ria]

No, but I mean, all things considered, being put on this list is however you made it on the list. It is really cool to be on the list. Really fucking cool to be on the list. Like, oh, 100 top influential people in the world.

[Fran]

You put that on your resume?

[Ria]

Yeah. Oh, oh. First line.

[Fran]

Yeah.

[Jesse Solomon]

Need that on her resume.

[Ria]

First line. I don't know if you heard, but I'm 100.

[Fran]

Exactly.

[Ria]

Most influential.

[Fran]

And we were throwing People's Choice award nominee on our resumes. So you know.

[Ria]

Exactly, exactly. And it's nice that it's like, it's not a. They just throw the hundred names out there and it's not ranked or anything. So it's like you're just, you don't know where you fall, but you're in it.

[Fran]

Right. That's good too.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

Where it's like no rankings.

[Ria]

Exactly, exactly. So that's the list.

[Fran]

That's the list. And that wraps up the topics.

[Ria]

All right, everyone, we are here with a very special guest. We are joined by Jesse Solomon. We've wanted him in this studio for a long time and now we have him here all to talk about what's going on TV and your life.

[Noah]

So welcome to Jesse.

[Ria]

Yeah, thanks for having me. We're excited. I've been saying it to you since like last summer. So I'm excited that it happened because we did. I did introduce myself to you at Common Ground.

[Noah]

A drunken encounter at Common Ground. I was like, oh, I know you.

[Ria]

And I talk about the night so much because I enjoyed watching west struggle to be allowed up to behind the jay for, like, 30 minutes. And I just sat at my table and. And watched and had a great giggle to myself because he was so mad.

[Noah]

Yeah. I mean, I don't want to talk smack about west and his status at Common Ground, but they didn't seem to like him there.

[Ria]

They have. I mean, they have to.

[Fran]

I mean, watching that happen to somebody. Somebody else is hilarious. You don't want it to happen to you, but watching it happen to somebody else, you're like, oh, yeah, that's funny.

[Noah]

The security guards just doing their job. Like, same thing at Coachella. I felt so bad for the security where, like, people who act like they deserve to be somewhere, like, it's just their job right now.

[Fran]

You just got back from Coachella. How was that?

[Noah]

Yeah, it was a lot of fun. It was hot.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Noah]

I was there with a brand, so I kind of had to, like, do a lot of work.

[Ria]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Noah]

But the nights were really fun.

[Ria]

Did you have any favorite performances, Mao.

[Noah]

P. I'm not a big, like, pop music guy, so my friends and I just went to, like, the dance stages and tents.

[Fran]

Was that your first time at Coachella?

[Noah]

I'd been once, like, eight or nine years ago.

[Fran]

Is it everything you've ever thought it was? Like, what's the vibe there now? Because I feel like there's so many different. Yeah, there's so many different answers from people. Like, some people, like, no, it's the best. Everyone's together, dancing, and other people are like, no, it's just a bunch of influencers. They only care about their outfits. What is it to you?

[Noah]

It's both. It's just, like, a good networking thing because I'm, like, an east coast guy, and so to be out in LA and, like, I feel like people don't go out in LA unless you're out, like, every night going to whatever bars and clubs. Like, everybody comes out for Coachella, so you can kind of just like, see everyone in one fell swoop.

[Ria]

Right, right, right. Cross. Cross that off the list. Yeah, that's good. How were you feeling otherwise? This was a big episode this week for you.

[Noah]

Yeah, I didn't watch last night.

[Fran]

You know what happened sometimes.

[Noah]

Yeah, sometimes you just got to take a little step back.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

You don't have to watch it live.

[Noah]

Yeah.

[Ria]

Well, what about the good stuff? I mean, you guys, there was some great charity work.

[Noah]

Yeah. It was like, so heartwarming to go to the Hope Lodge with the cast and the cast, like, they're just good people. Like, you become a family when you have a share house with people, especially when you're like, filming and you're in this little microcosm. And it just like, it was great and I appreciate nobody had to come to that. You know, it was just supposed to be like a couple people. And then most of the cast ended up coming and, like Sierra and Paige and I think even Carl, like, donated to my cancer fundraiser. And, like, they're just good people. So it was. It was great.

[Fran]

I think the audience loves seeing wholesome moments like that because apart from that, then we see everybody fighting. So it's nice to see the difference. I also feel like you and Wes joining only last summer, you guys quickly became a family. Like, I feel like I've been watching you guys on TV for years now, but getting. It's only been the second season. Like, I feel like you two fit in so seamlessly. Do you feel the same way?

[Noah]

Yes.

[Fran]

Yeah. You're like, duh, I belong there.

[Noah]

Yeah. I think it's just because we're like, normal and they're normal. So, like, the normal people get along. But coming into it, I was like, I had no idea what to expect. And pretty quickly, I think it was like the third weekend of my first summer. Like, West Sierra, Paige and I drove home together and we were just like, I started talking shit and then we all kind of like looked at each other and you're like, Paige and Cira were like, okay, they're on the inside.

[Fran]

That's kind of the best feeling when you feel safe to start talking shit with somebody.

[Noah]

Yeah.

[Fran]

It almost makes people closer.

[Ria]

Yeah, it certainly does. It's a safe space for sure.

[Fran]

And now you're seeing a little bit of a difference from last season to this season. You know, last season it was just like, oh, what would Jesse Solomon do? You know?

[Noah]

Yeah.

[Fran]

And now you're in the mix of having an on screen relationship unfold.

[Noah]

How I almost forgot.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

And, you know, everybody has reminded you, I bet, while watching this season unfold. Is it such a major difference now watching it last season versus this season? And like, how are your emotions?

[Noah]

Yeah, emotions are good. Thanks. I would say last season, when you don't really have that strong foundation with everybody in the house, it's harder to be completely yourself. Like, you can't show everyone how Weird you are if you're, like, not close with them.

[Fran]

Yeah.

[Noah]

So it wasn't till, like, the end of the summer where I was, like, really comfortable, and, you know, I just didn't. I wasn't on the show that much until I sang that song, and everybody loved it. Yeah. This summer, I mean, like, dating gets a lot of attention, especially if it's, like, two people in the house. And so it. It felt how it feels watching the show back. Like, the first few weekends, everybody was, like, asking Lexi and I, what's going on? It's just, like, pretty intense. But, yeah, it's good.

[Ria]

Yeah, it does. It does just become, obviously, a microscope when it's two people in the house, because I think that so much of the house, you know, like, man and Kyle are married. Lizzie's having a baby. It's like they have their own personal lives that they're like, oh, my God, there's drama again in the house. Like, people are together in the house again. It's been seasoned since this is. Since this has happened. So it's gotten everybody's attention for sure. I know you said you didn't watch this week, which is, you know, fair. I know a lot of people don't watch themselves. Do you normally watch?

[Noah]

Yes.

[Ria]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Noah]

I watched this week. I just watched it before. I didn't watch it last night.

[Ria]

I got you.

[Noah]

I got you. And, like, some of it's, like, you cringe at yourself so hard that I just, like, I'm kind of watching.

[Fran]

You're, like, watching with one eye open.

[Ria]

Yeah. Do you think you're a little bit of a love bomber? That's what. That's what people have been saying.

[Noah]

Are they saying that.

[Ria]

They are saying. No, listen, the people are saying, I.

[Noah]

Came on strong, but I think Lexi matched my energy. And when you're going for a girl who's, like, dated Drake, you're not gonna, like, get her by playing it cool.

[Ria]

Right? Right.

[Noah]

Like, my style is aggressive, and, like, I'm not gonna be anybody but myself. So watching it back, like, yeah, I guess I was love bombing, but. And I'm, like, learning about love bombing now. So, yeah, I'm trying to, like, be better the next time around.

[Fran]

And it was interesting because on last night's episode, we saw you for the first time kind of get a little bit because you had thought that Lexi was flirting with West.

[Noah]

Incorrect.

[Fran]

Yeah. And then.

[Noah]

That's not what happened.

[Fran]

That's not what happened.

[Noah]

Absolutely not. I was excited that Lexi was flirting with west because anything that I had been doing with Sierra the weekend prior. I was like, oh, it was apples to apples. Like, you're flirting with West. I'm flirting with Sierra. It's all fluid. We're one big happy where we can.

[Fran]

All flirt with each other.

[Noah]

And she took it as, like, me being jealous and she's making me out to be this, like, jealous type where that's just not how I felt.

[Fran]

Okay. So watching it did sort of feel like in your confessional, you were like, I'm excited. And then in Lexi, she was like, I don't know why Jesse's mad. But then I wasn't sure if we were seeing you mad or not. Like, it was outside of the car. It seemed like maybe when you had mentioned it, it seemed like maybe you were, like, a little bit jealous. But then it kind of turned into Lexi was talking about it, but we didn't necessarily. It was confusing. Like, when you went to bed, I was confused if you guys were fighting or not fighting.

[Noah]

Yeah, it was just like, such neggy energy. I was like, it's all good. Like, I was just saying I brought something up in the car ride home, and she, like, immediately was upset with me.

[Fran]

So you took it as like, a good thing? Like, oh, my God. You can. We can all have this banter with each other.

[Noah]

Yes.

[Fran]

Got it, Got it.

[Ria]

Did you see Sierra's reaction to how you told her, like, hey, no touchy. Did you see?

[Noah]

She was like, fuck you.

[Fran]

Yeah, I loved Ciara's reaction to that because it was like, now you're not even allowed to joke around with me ever now since I can't touch your arm. Like, actually, we can't even speak.

[Noah]

She fucking crushes me so bad.

[Ria]

And you guys are obviously still very close.

[Noah]

Yeah.

[Ria]

And you kind of need. You need female friends like that, though, I think.

[Noah]

Yeah, I agree.

[Fran]

Were you confused about all the conversation around you and Ciara in the summer?

[Noah]

Watching it back, like, I understand. Like, I didn't really remember grinding with her in my underwear.

[Fran]

I was stunned. I'm not gonna lie. Watching, I was like, wow.

[Noah]

But listen, like, if I was trying to hook up with Sierra, I would have been trying to hook up with Sierra. I was just like, friendly flirting. It wasn't like, there wasn't intent. So. Yeah. But seeing it back, like, yeah, it was hammered. It was a fun part.

[Ria]

There's. There has been a couple, obviously. Lexi was a new addition, but there's been some attention on Emeril coming into the house and just hooking up with girls. It's Seemingly every night of every weekend.

[Noah]

Savage.

[Ria]

Were you guys, as the, like, newer guys in the house, shocked by what he was doing?

[Noah]

Yeah. There's that one scene where west and I are like, she's here. Or you, like, say it at the same time. There's girls here with Imrule. Yeah. It was just kind of like, I couldn't believe that he wanted to do that on camera, that the girls would want to do that.

[Fran]

I'm confused. I feel like they usually show the girls coming back, but they've been cutting them out. Is that for any reason in particular? Like, is it.

[Noah]

I think the girls don't want to be on the show.

[Fran]

Some people sign off.

[Ria]

They're one of, like, 18, right.

[Fran]

Then they don't want to be shown. Do you think he's getting an accurate edit? Like, yeah. Okay.

[Noah]

He's getting a good edit from what we're.

[Fran]

I don't know if I would. If I would call it that, because I feel like, compared to what it was. Well, from what we see, it's like, he's not involving himself with the rest of the house. He's not, like, forming relationships with people. It's just him bringing girls home. So was that pretty accurate to what was happening over the summer? Yeah.

[Noah]

He was friendlier with Carl and maybe Kyle a little bit West. He and west had some conversations, but conversations with him were always very serious. He wasn't like, a easygoing guy.

[Ria]

Right, Right.

[Noah]

But he's a good person, I think, and a nice person.

[Ria]

Yeah. Is just a different. Because you really only get to see one side of him.

[Noah]

Yeah. He and I beefed over the summer.

[Fran]

Was it because of what happened or a different reason?

[Ria]

Toegate, perhaps, or.

[Noah]

Yeah, it was surrounding Toegate.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Noah]

Yeah.

[Ria]

Which toe was it?

[Fran]

Yeah.

[Noah]

One or two. There's maybe a ton.

[Ria]

I don't know why that was, like, my first thought. I was like.

[Fran]

I immediately went to big toe, I think.

[Noah]

Yeah.

[Fran]

Everybody went to big toe. Everybody assumes big toe.

[Noah]

It was, I think, the right pinky toe.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

Gotcha.

[Ria]

A smaller, cuter toe.

[Noah]

Yeah.

[Fran]

Maybe were you, like, in the moment when that's happening? Were you like, why am I doing this? Like, this is a bad idea you had to have.

[Noah]

Yeah.

[Fran]

Okay, good.

[Noah]

Totally.

[Fran]

That's good.

[Noah]

Yeah. I mean, at the time, no, I was like, I think this is, like, funny, and I was just, you know, like, summer house drunk shenanigans.

[Fran]

What's crazy is, like, it felt like a foreshadowing. They show Paige be like, when you're massaging Sierra's foot. They're like. She's like, put the foot in your mouth, Jessie. And then, like, that same night you went and got your toe sucked. Was it like then just, like, in the back of your head, you're like, wow, you know, now this. These feet are on my mind.

[Noah]

Was that before?

[Fran]

It was right before. It was the same episode.

[Noah]

Yeah.

[Ria]

I don't know.

[Fran]

It was like a theme going on in the episode.

[Noah]

Listen, I'm sure you could find a girl that I've dated before and ask her if we do toe sucking. I've never happened since. I've never done it before nor after.

[Fran]

It was just on a whim.

[Noah]

Yeah. But I could see how that would be not the right thing to do. I just thought it was, like, funny at the time.

[Fran]

Yeah.

[Ria]

Did you and west meet just because of the show?

[Noah]

Yeah.

[Ria]

And you guys. It was like an immediate connection. Yeah.

[Noah]

Yeah. I just, like, really can't see us fighting.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Noah]

He's just, like. Likes to keep the peace. He's just such a good person, and I just feel, like, lucky that we've gotten to do this whole thing together.

[Fran]

Going into this next summer. Now, are you guys, like, all right, we got to be single. No hooking up with people in the house. Like, we just need to, you know, just us two out there.

[Noah]

Yeah, we are.

[Ria]

The blood oath has already been.

[Fran]

Now, you guys both had your fair share of in house rubber.

[Ria]

You just got a season they used.

[Fran]

To season, and now you guys can get out there in the summer. I feel like maybe have you come to the conclusion, like, you're not ready for relationship?

[Noah]

No, I still am open to it with the right person. Like, clearly, when I fall, I fall hard. So I'm open to it, but I'm not looking to it. Looking for it. But, yeah, I think I'm gonna go in trying to be single this summer, but I'm not gonna fight it.

[Ria]

As the wise Kyle Cook has said, summer is for fun.

[Fran]

Yes, of course. Do you feel like you need to find somebody that sort of matches the energy that you have instead of, like. Because a lot of girls aren't gonna be okay with a lot of the stuff that you did, but maybe there's somebody out there that would be okay with it? Like, are you sort of leaning towards that? Like, you're like, I need someone who's gonna be okay with me being flirty and touchy and whatever, or I need.

[Noah]

Somebody who's really secure, I think. And I'm still trying to figure out who I should be with. Like, whether they're in the limelight or not. Like, I'm just. This is all new to me, so.

[Fran]

Yeah, you guys should just have fun this summer.

[Ria]

You gotta be able to keep gassing up your girls on Instagram, which, you know, it hasn't stopped.

[Noah]

Yeah, it hasn't stopped.

[Ria]

And you won't stop doing it, I'm guessing.

[Noah]

Never. Yeah, they deserve it.

[Ria]

Do you. I'd love to know, like, what you're thinking at home. Like, when you posted the picture with everybody and you and Paige were, like, slightly holding hands. Like, are you just giggling at home? Like, this is really gonna freak people out.

[Noah]

Yes, it's hilarious.

[Ria]

Y.

[Fran]

Like, kicking your feet.

[Noah]

It's just like, people take life so seriously, and it's just like, take a joke. Yeah, it's not that serious.

[Ria]

It's true.

[Noah]

Paige actually reached back and grabbed my.

[Fran]

Hand and I was like, like, it's happening.

[Ria]

Don't get too excited. Don't get too excited.

[Fran]

I saw Paige joke around saying how you have texted her multiple times now, being like, I'm so excited.

[Noah]

Yeah, that's true. I was upset with her. She actually has texted me twice, being like, season 10, gonna be lit. La, la, la, la, la. Like, but, yeah, obviously I'm excited for the summer. But, like, Paige, I've said this before. Like, she's gonna end up with some, like, older fucking A list guy on the Yankees.

[Ria]

Like, I thought that was a spot on comparison. You're like, she's gonna date someone on the Yankees. I was like, honestly, so true.

[Fran]

I can see it.

[Noah]

And Sierra the other day was like, we were FaceTiming. She's like, what the fuck? Like, what about me? What about my chop liver? I was like, maybe the Mets.

[Ria]

Yeah. Wow, Cole, she did say that recently on the show. She was like, maybe I gotta start dating athletes.

[Fran]

Yeah, no, I don't think that's the avenue to go for either.

[Ria]

Did you guys have any idea that, like, I know it's kind of happened or slight things have been said or Carl's been asked about it, that Carl's, like, been maybe holding a little something in his heart for Sierra?

[Fran]

What is going on there?

[Noah]

Yeah, I think they show it in the preview, right?

[Ria]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Noah]

Carl's got a crush on Sierra.

[Ria]

Is it just like, who doesn't have a crush on Sierra? Right?

[Fran]

That's.

[Noah]

I think. I think.

[Fran]

Is it reciprocated, you think?

[Noah]

No, no, I think she thinks he's cute.

[Fran]

But, like, hey, at least Carl's being open and honest about it, because I Saw on Watch what happens Live. He was like talkie. He's like, you know, you never know like about Ciara. I'm like, what is this Carl and Ciara thing? I've never seen that coming.

[Ria]

I think Carl's down to shoot a shot.

[Noah]

You know, we were filming the after show and the producer said to us like when Carl told Sierra that he really liked her and Wes was like, what that happened? Were you upset?

[Fran]

Wes?

[Noah]

No.

[Fran]

It's funny seeing Wes this season. I think he's got a great edit this season. Cause it's just like random one liners thrown in there.

[Noah]

That's all he was doing.

[Fran]

And I'm like, sometimes I get mad at myself for laughing so hard. I'm like, that was really funny.

[Noah]

She's so funny and witty.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

When they open the door, when they were banging on the door at 5:30 in the morning and Lindsey opened up the door and the faces they made. Some moments have been really laugh out loud funny this season, which is, I think honestly you and west add a lot to that.

[Noah]

Thank you.

[Ria]

Yeah, for sure.

[Noah]

That's the point of a share house, is to have fun with your friends and laugh and listen. I say a lot of things over the summer where I'm just like trying to keep it light and chill and like it really offends people. So I learned from that and I need to like think about what I say. But it's hard to be funny if you're like having a filter.

[Fran]

You just have to continue to be yourself because you know.

[Ria]

Absolutely.

[Fran]

Some people are gonna, you know, get. A lot of people get mad at the relationship stuff which is just bound to happen. But if you guys are just having fun being yourself, people are gonna love that.

[Noah]

Yeah. I've seen some upset people me on TikTok and thanks.

[Ria]

Good.

[Noah]

For the algorithm.

[Ria]

I heard.

[Fran]

Yeah. I mean, I think when it comes to this season and everything that unfolded with Lexi, I think people just feel it's a little bit unfair for a new girl to come in and you know, everyone's friends with you already and it kind of feels like she's getting slighted a little bit, which I feel like is all very fair.

[Noah]

So welcoming to her. Amanda said, shower in my bathroom and she showered in mine. Like she had the opportunity to become close with those girls and she tried to blame me for like driving a wedge between her and the girls. And I was like, I, I didn't tie you up and keep you in my. Like, you have free will.

[Ria]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Noah]

So it's like an Easy excuse, in my opinion.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

Are you nervous? Excited for the reunion?

[Noah]

I'm. I'm excited for it to be done.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Noah]

I mean, I just, like, need to think about what I want to say. It's just like a 12 hour shoot.

[Ria]

Yeah. You don't want to get.

[Fran]

You don't want to end up with Wes. Like what? Yeah, that's what I was going to say. You don't want to end up like west in the last one where he just kind of didn't really speak and then spoke after. It's like you just got to say everything on your mind then.

[Noah]

Yeah, yeah, I will. I'll be prepared.

[Ria]

Yeah, definitely.

[Noah]

I'm not worried about it.

[Fran]

And then you can wrap up this season and move on to the summer.

[Noah]

Yeah, it's pretty wild. They're. They're casting away.

[Ria]

It's.

[Noah]

People are hitting me up.

[Ria]

It's crazy that it's like we're already. I mean, it moves at such a funny pace because we're watching last summer now and, you know, it's almost May, so it's like, summer's off. The next summer is basically already.

[Fran]

Right. It's kind of fun that you can, like, as soon as that's over, you're like, all right, on to the next summer. Like, we can just like, move past it a little bit.

[Noah]

Yeah. Filming is intense just because, like, you're constantly talking about your emotions and, like, just gets kind of tiring. I. I love it. But the five months when you're not filming and not airing, that was like, a really special time in my life.

[Fran]

Is there no, like, anxiety of, like, what's to come? Like, you kind of. Yeah, there is. You bury it. And then like, within the last month leading up, you're like, oh, okay, it's about to happen.

[Noah]

This is what you agree to on being on reality television. And I think, like, a lot of people get super caught up in public opinion and it's like we're literally selling a small piece of our soul just so people can either like us or hate us.

[Fran]

That's true.

[Noah]

So how can you get upset when people talk shit about you online?

[Fran]

You are definitely signing up for it. You know that's gonna happen now.

[Noah]

Yeah, we didn't do anything special. We're just agreeing to have cameras on our personal lives.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Noah]

It's not like we're athletes or, you know, actors.

[Fran]

And I also like to think about the fact that, like, the people who are judging everybody all the time watching the shows and we're. We're them too, because we watch. But then you're like, well, what if there were cameras on your life all the time? Like, what would people think about what you're saying? So it's kind of like no matter who's on camera, people are going to have something to say about it. But it's perfect. No? And you said casting. Are you excited about new casting? Nervous. Like, who do you want to see come in?

[Noah]

Hmm. Who do I want to see come in? Just fun loving people who want to go out, I would say would be fun. It's hard to find people that are like, willing to be themselves on camera and are deeper than just like, like to have fun and go to the Hamptons. So. But yeah, I think this show might.

[Ria]

Lindsay's daughter is probably new cast member number one.

[Fran]

I forgot. Like, Lindsay, she can't be coming, right? With a bait maybe for like a weekend.

[Ria]

Well, Wes kind of said something on a, on a podcast and it activated Lindsay a little bit. She was mad.

[Fran]

Yeah.

[Noah]

I love when she gets activated. Just nod at me.

[Ria]

Yeah, exactly.

[Noah]

Yeah. I mean, I hope that there's more seasons, but who knows? I think it's this summer and then we figure it out from there, right?

[Ria]

Exactly. As people's lives go on because everyone is in different phases of life, you're also been working on a lot of music. Jesse Solomon.

[Noah]

I know.

[Ria]

The singer extraordinaire.

[Noah]

It's exciting.

[Ria]

Is this kind of an unexpected part of this for you or did you think like, ooh, reality TV could lead me to this point?

[Noah]

I didn't go into reality tv, like planning to launch a music career. I think I more so was like, I'll launch a consumer product.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Noah]

I grew up singing. I've sang my whole life. I studied vocal jazz performance at like one of the best music schools at University of Miami. And then I decided to work in the music business. Out of college, I started a venture backed startup with my boss from William Morris. So like, I ended up getting super far away from music. And then when a more creative path kind of like revealed itself, I was like, why not? You only live once. If money didn't matter, I would like to spend time in a music studio with cool people making. That sounds good. So I was like, let's fucking do it.

[Ria]

That's what you've been doing?

[Noah]

That's what I've been doing. I have a really exciting release on May 1st with like my dream publication, which is like, really exciting. They're doing a story with me that's awesome. So it's just like, the whole thing is so fun and there's no pressure.

[Fran]

I like attitude.

[Noah]

If it doesn't work, who gives a fuck? I have fun making the music and, like, I have this, like, thing that didn't exist before I was alive.

[Ria]

Yeah, right. It's gonna be a whole album just.

[Noah]

With, like, the way modern music and social media works. I just think, like, every release is an opportunity for new people to hear my music. So why give them, like, multiple songs at once when I can, like, spend a month posting about each song I do.

[Ria]

Right.

[Noah]

So I'm just gonna keep putting out singles until. Yeah. Then I'll do an EP and then single, single, single, then an album. Who knows?

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

You never know what could happen. Especially with TikTok.

[Noah]

Yeah.

[Fran]

Like, songs just blow up out of nowhere.

[Noah]

Totally.

[Ria]

Have you been surprised with, like, who you've been able to. To work with and, like, being in the studio, you're like, wow, I'm in the studio with some, like, legit people.

[Noah]

Nope. No. I'm teasing. The guys that I make music with are incredible, incredibly talented, but they're not, like, famous.

[Ria]

Yeah, but still, it's like you're not. It's not like you're. You're not in the studio with, like, a buddy from high school being like, oh, you are people who, you know.

[Fran]

Are experienced in making music.

[Noah]

Yeah, totally. I think more so. Just, like, recently I've met some pretty famous people and, like, they said, what up to me? And I was like, yeah, is this real life?

[Fran]

I mean, so many.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

Celebrities watch Bravo. I really do.

[Noah]

I had no idea.

[Ria]

They really do. I totally see a, like, dance song feature. So, you know, like, like a Zed featuring Jesse Solomon.

[Noah]

Yeah, I. I have an electronic track that I'm gonna release at the beginning of the summer.

[Ria]

Amazing.

[Noah]

And I'm looking for song of the summer.

[Fran]

Yeah.

[Noah]

Co produce it with me. So any DJs out there.

[Fran]

Was Kyle gonna get offended that you're not asking him?

[Noah]

I mean, Kyle, probably.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

It's good. It'll be good banter for the season.

[Noah]

Kyle and I are talking about doing another song.

[Fran]

Okay, good. So is he going by.

[Ria]

He's just going by his name.

[Fran]

Right.

[Ria]

When he's, like, DJing, he's just Kyle Cook. Right.

[Noah]

That's all he's got.

[Ria]

Yeah, yeah, he's just got. Well, some people change their name.

[Fran]

Yeah, that's true.

[Ria]

Imagine it would actually be. Be hysterical if he decided to, like, have a DJ name.

[Fran]

Yeah, right.

[Noah]

Well, that's. People are like, do you go by Jesse Son or like, that's literally all I've got.

[Fran]

Yeah.

[Noah]

Without that, I. It's nothing.

[Fran]

You can't do a rebrand this late.

[Ria]

Yeah. You're like, I have.

[Fran]

Yeah.

[Ria]

My brand is Jesse Solomon. Why would I start music as like.

[Fran]

Some change it then. Nobody's staying in the. What would Jesse Solomon do then? You know, it's all over the map.

[Noah]

That's my first hit.

[Fran]

Yeah.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Fran]

You gotta stick with that.

[Ria]

Exactly. So. So, I mean, music Summerhouse. You've also really gotten to share your own personal journey on the show. How has that been for you? To kind of like spread the awareness, Cancer awareness.

[Noah]

Going into Summer House, I was like, listen, if I get canceled and fired from my job and like, everything goes to shit, at least sharing my cancer story will have helped people.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Noah]

And it's been overwhelmingly positive. The amount of messages I get. I'm like deep in the cancer community now and like, everybody knows somebody who's had cancer. So I was expecting it to be like, you know, go get checked. And it would help people who didn't know that they had something going on, but more so like the emotional thing and like being able to be open about having cancer and having like somebody that they connect to, seeing them go through that, like, there's not a lot of places where you can find that. So I think, like, my ability to just be open about that, it was like, way more powerful than I expected. And it's just like, feels good.

[Fran]

Yeah, absolutely. Bringing that conversation to sort of like a light hearted or dramatic show like Summer House, I feel like, is important and you probably did reach a lot of people who, you know, spread that awareness. I think it's. It's funny to look back on that initial conversation when you told the house. Do you and Wes laugh about that? When Wes brought up, he was like, he was like, I just talked about the 50 states and he has cancer. Like, that was, I think, honestly the start of like, where everyone was like, okay, we're interested in these two.

[Noah]

Yeah. Yeah. I mean, Wes, that was hilarious. I was just like listening to him tell about his 50 states. And I was like, I think it's time.

[Fran]

You're like, I'm gearing up. Yeah.

[Noah]

There kept being things where they were like, ask Jesse. Like, the girls were asking me, like, what's the worst thing that's ever happened to you? And I was like, I literally just got here.

[Ria]

Yeah.

[Noah]

Give me a moment.

[Ria]

Yeah. I'm not trying to like unpack everything on these literal strangers at this point, but it's Gotta be like you said, it's great to share it. Have you had, you know, these personal moments with fans and whatnot who have wanted to talk to you about their stories and.

[Noah]

Yeah, yeah, I get emotional thinking about it. Cause like, one of the crazier ones, I mean, literally yesterday a guy walked up to me, he's like, you encouraged me to go get checked. And I found something early. I was like, that's amazing. Like, that happens more often than you'd think. A more sad one. Like a woman's son passed away and like, she came up to me and gave me one of his shirts. And I was just like, I'm so sorry. I was like, I cannot. So there's. It's. It doesn't work out perfectly for everyone and like, I'm lucky and blessed that I a good outcome. But yeah, it happens a lot. I get a lot of messages. I try to respond to them.

[Fran]

But being vulnerable like that on TV is important. And I feel like you learned that sort of the first season when you talked about that.

[Noah]

Totally. I was like, I cannot believe I just cried on national television because, like, you know, you're like a guy. It's like not cool to cry. And I just didn't think there was ever a reason to cry. But then you almost have cancer and it was scary.

[Fran]

It's a reason.

[Ria]

Yeah, certainly. Certainly a reason. And I feel like it's been a good, like Rhea, you were saying, a good balance of real life seriousness. And then you get to have the fun in the share house like everybody else gets to have. So, yeah, you have to. And it humanizes everybody. Cause like we said, people watch reality TV and they tear people apart. And then it's like, okay, wait a second. This is, you know, well, human being. There's a lot going on in life.

[Fran]

And it's all the elements of life because you can be out having the time of your life at a club or a bar, but maybe something's going on with your family, something serious like that. So, like, it does combine all of the elements. So it really was great that you shared that and that you're more comfortable even talking about it now.

[Noah]

Yeah, yeah. Everybody's got shit.

[Fran]

Yeah.

[Ria]

Where did you grow up? I know.

[Noah]

That was a complete turn north suburbs of Chicago.

[Ria]

[Noah]

Yeah. Cuz one of her best friends texted me yesterday. I was like, you skipped the podcast? I was like, I was sick.

[Ria]

I told them because I forget somebody sent. One of my friends, like, sent something from something that you had posted from Chell. And I was like, funny. He's actually supposed to be here on Tuesdays. He's out. Coming.

[Ria]

That is. That is very funny. I've never even thought about that.

[Fran]

Hershey's cookies and cream, 18 grams of protein, only 3 grams of sugar. I've been trying to up my protein. I'm trying to, you know, when I work out, make sure I'm grabbing a little protein bar for after quick little bite. I'm grabbing the one protein bars. They taste delicious. The one Reese's peanut butter lovers protein bar is made with Reese's peanut butter. And only one Hershey's CNC protein bar is made with Hershey's cookies bits. One also has other delicious flavors like birthday cake, maple glazed donut and blueberry cobbler. So for me, I love that it's hitting my sweet tooth, but also giving me that protein that I need all in the same bite. It's absolutely perfect. So try new one Reese's Peanut butter lovers protein bar and one Hershey's cookies and cream now. All right, ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to another game of Beatrian Fran.

I'd go with that.
