And it's from. To me, I love putting them up because you can see kind of more than like a clip on TikTok or Instagram. This is like kind of the weirdness and awkwardness of going to a town that's not your own and doing some kind of local stuff and talking with the crowd. And when things don't work, when they do work, you know, you have these moments. So there's something from Nashville up right now from Saturday. And then this Saturday I have another video from Nashville going up. Eight minutes, nine. I don't know. You know, listen, I'm putting, I'm, I'm churning out the stuff. Maybe, I don't know, maybe it's a mistake. Maybe I should go for better quality over quantity. I like to think that I'm doing quantity at a quality level. So that's it. The last plug is, is the sponsor. We have one sponsor this episode. I'm gonna read it, get it out of the way. But every sponsor is in the description of the episode. If it helps you, then use the promo. That's like a. That's us holding hands, holding them up in the sky, crossing the finish line. I'm helping you, you're helping me. That's the circle of podcasting and it pays the rent. It makes sure you have a show waiting for you at midnight. Tommy John Boys, it's time to upgrade to the next level of underwear with Tommy John.

Travis Kelsey gives nod to Taylor Swift with surprising item in gym bag. Now I click on an article like this. Basically, they know at Page six, anything. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelsey gonna pop this article? I wouldn't care what's. Nah, I would care what anyone. Like, if I heard that someone put something in their gym bag for their girlfriend as a nod, I would put be curious. I'd go, what is the nod? What. What thing is in the gym bag that makes. And this is like, women want to know what other. How other women are getting treated as a man, I want to know what would be considered like, romantic because I want to make my life easier. So that's why I would click on this. I'm like, well, what's Travis Kelsey doing that maybe I could copy? That would get me blown. That's kind of the thought that I see from this to women. It's like, okay, what's the thing? Am I. Do I think it's cute? Or would I literally hope for death instead of being in this relationship where someone did this gym bag nod to me? That is a funny difference that I'm clicking this to see if it's romantic enough. If something I could do and then act surprised. Oh, yeah, I just did this. I didn't find out from Travis Kelsey and women are clicking this, I think, in my opinion, to see if this is the dumbest thing and it's something that they would be angry at. So Travis Kelsey gives nod to Taylor Swift with surprising item in gym bag. Let's see what it is. King of her heart. Travis Kelsey made sure to keep Taylor Swift close to his heart as he was photographed carrying what appeared to be the ERA Tour, the ERA's tour book, in his gym bag on Tuesday. Well, this takes me copying this out of the question. I couldn't. I'm. I. It doesn't look like I'm going to start dating someone. With the largest tour in the history of mankind, the Kansas City Chiefs player, 35, headed into a workout wearing an all gray outfit and a backwards baseball cap, holding a duffel at his side. So they show the picture and then the bag is slightly opened, which the. The bag is not opened enough for this to be a story. This is like, like if someone showed me this picture of Travis Kelsey and was like, did you see what was in his bag? I'd be like, you're a crazy person for knowing what is in his bag. This bag is not opened enough. One social media user. Yeah, this. We are now reporting news stories based on the opinions of crazy people. One social media user zoomed in on the bag's contents. No, no, no. One insane person zoomed in on his Bag. This guy cannot leave the house with an open bag and a sliver of something showing from it without it being reported on. And it's because one don't call them. One social media user, one crazed Taylor Swift fan who will is is trying to find drama, zoomed in on a photo. That's what it should say. Zoomed in on the bag's contents, and spotted a familiar pink pattern that resembled the book's cover, which was released in November 2024. There's a book about the tour. Hello? Is that the era's tour book, the Swifty Aspy? Listen, buying the tour book alone is crazy. While many speculated that the tight end was bringing a signed copy of the book to a fan, which pretty reasonable thought, others quip that he misses the ERA tour just as much as they do. Yeah, I. Those are the people where I go, okay, put it on their permanent record. We need to know that this is something that they feel. Oh, they. He carries around the book just like me. Okay, we got them marked. If they have any other weird complaints, this will be used against them. It's a beautiful book. I'm just looking at it. He probably has Taze Pop Tarts to give to someone who works at the gym too. One joked, referencing the dessert Swift is known for making. These people. Oh, my God, there's a line. There's a line. These are the ones who have crossed it. Okay, let's go to another story. So this one. This one I saw first, and then there's a second story to back it up because I didn't know Elizabeth Hurley was dating Billy Ray Cyrus. But I found a second article where Trace Cyrus blasts evil dad Billy Ray for skipping grandma's funeral to attend a fashion show. So these seem to be. To me, there is an anti Billy Ray group and there's a pro Billy Ray group, because for both articles to exist on page six, this is like a page six duel. Because. Listen, Trey Cyrus, who. I don't know who they are. The. The. The child of Billy Ray. Okay, fine. I. That's. That's as much as I know. I don't know their work. I don't know what they do. But to say that your dad is evil, that. That means we got a problem to say to skipping grandma's funeral to attend a fashion show. Tough one for Billy Ray to answer to. Cause that, to me, that's A plus B equals C. Did you miss grandma's funeral? Where were you? Done. End of story. Does that make you evil? I don't know. His relationship With Grandma. I don't know. I think it makes you not have a rel. I don't. It makes it. To me, that means you and Grandma didn't have a good go at it. But let's see. Trey Cyrus slammed his dad, Billy Ray, for skipping his grandma's funeral to attend a fashion show. This man is so hungry for fame, it's pathetic. The singer, 36, wrote alongside a photo of the Hannah Montana actor. That's what we're calling. I love Page Six. That's what we're calling Billy Ray Cyrus the Hannah Montana actor. Okay. Via Instagram. I mean, this is on Instagram. This is on Maine. Adding that he really flew to Italy for a fashion show but wouldn't come to LA for Mammy's. Oh, that's a ver. Mammy's. Not to, you know, not to talk. I'm not talking. Not to besmirch the dead. I don't think I am. That is the most southern grandma name I have ever. Mammy. You will. There is no one in the Northeast who calls Grandma Mammy. I also like when someone gets too personal on. On social media, like, as if she's our grandmother. He really flew to Italy for a fashion show but wouldn't come to LA for Mammy's funeral? No, no, no. It's my mammy's funeral. When you just say Mammy's funeral, I don't know. I'm. I'm kind of. I think the whole family's got an issue. It's weird that Billy Ray would go to Italy instead of Mammy's funeral. It's weird for Trace to refer to Mammy as if she's the mammy for the whole country while he's still married to my mom. Oh, wait a minute. Maybe it's not his Mammy again. If. Okay, this sentence. It's funny how I sprinted to one side of the aisle. I'm like, man, Billy Ray, why would he be not at Mammy's funeral? And now read the sentence. He really flew to Italy for a fashion show, but wouldn't come to LA for Mammy's funeral while he was still married to my mom. Hmm. If he's going through a divorce, does he need to go to his mother in law's funeral? Trace continued alleging that even after his daughter got him a 50. A $60,000 private jet like he demanded. That's in quotes. The word demanded. He's really painting Billy Ray in quite a light. The country star still didn't come despite the jet allegedly Having been paid for, you're the lamest man to ever walk planet Earth. Trace continued in the screed on Tuesday. Honestly embarrassed to have ever considered you my idol. This is a sad tale. I mean, to play this all out on social media. So I'm seeing the social media post and then the whole write up from Trace. He couldn't have used a douche year picture for his dad. He it looks like Billy Ray Cyrus is dressed as Jason Momoa for Halloween. This is the picture you use when you want people to think your dad is a loser. No one's looking at this picture being like, whoa, Billy Ray is killing it. I guess people who, you know, women who would have sex with Billy Ray are like, not so bad, you know, like this man is so hungry for fame, it's pathetic. I mean, he used the most hungry for fame pathetic look Billy Ray has in the arsenal. He really flew to Italy for a fashion show but wouldn't come to LA for Mammy's funeral while he was still married to my mom. To me. If you really want to get deep on it, that sentence does have some defense you could make for Billy Ray, but not with this picture. You know, hey, we're going through a divorce. I didn't want to. Attention. Here's Billy Ray's response. If I'm Billy Ray, if it's the way it's being described, you're still married to my mom. It was Mammy's funeral. How could you not come? Well, I wanted out of respect for Mammy and my ex wife. I didn't want the attention to be on us instead of Mammy during her big send off. So for that reason, I'm gonna be in Italy with Elizabeth Hurley. Remember her? One of the hottest people to ever walk the earth. Yeah, I'm gonna be with her at a fashion show. But good luck to the family. I did send a edible arrangement, so the edible arrangement will be arriving soon. Best to Mammy, best to my ex wife. Please don't hate me. Like that's Billy Ray's response. If I'm him, I could go, I could do pr. So Trace the Trace thing. He seems like a cry for help from a son that desperately needs attention from his father. Someone bullying him isn't the answer. By the way, who wrote that? So then Trace. So commenter. Seems like this is proof that you can find two sides to every argument, like who's getting involved. When you see Trace post this, a very obviously douchey picture of their father and they're playing this out on social media, normal people eat the popcorn and watch the fire burn. This person seems like a cry for help from a son that desperately needs attention from his father. Bullying him isn't the answer, by the way. Like, to me, this person, when they comment that, I'm like, oh, you have an issue with a kid? Like, this is. To me, this is someone. They're just team parent whose kid is annoying. And then Trace writes back, no, I'm past the point of even caring if I ever speak to him again. I've surpassed him in every metric as a man at this point. Okay? There's nothing left to learn from his. From this, from his, except from his mistakes. I had hoped at one point, but I'm convinced he's finally lost a lost cause. I'll continue to thrive. I don't think anyone reads this whole thing and is like, this kid's thriving, but, I mean, these are. Everyone's not doing well, okay? So I will thrive. I. I'll continue to thrive as the oldest son of the family. The Cyrus last name will continue through me. I mean, this is like a villain's speech during the movie. And many children I plan to have, I will raise them the right way and be part of their life no matter what the circumstances are. It's quite a speech by Trace. Every picture of Trace, by the way, is a shirtless selfie that they're using. And he's got a lot of tats. Okay, so then it goes on and on. But there's a second article that's also on this, on this website where, you know, page six. Okay. Trey says your dad is lame. Here's the next article. Elizabeth Hurley strips down for 60th birthday, celebrates being in love with Billy Ray Cyrus. You can't. Is he lame? Lame. This is basically. It seems like Billy Ray's like, call me lame, and then you think I'm lame. And then he went to his PR Person was like, hey, put out an article about Elizabeth Hurley, the hottest woman ever to live, getting naked for just me for her birthday. For her birthday, her gift to her was being naked for me. That's how lame I am. Elizabeth Hurley stripped down to celebrate her 60th birthday and her new romance with Billy Ray Cyrus. The Austin Power star shared a photo in her birthday suit on Instagram Tuesday while reflecting on her career and love life. Happy birthday to me. This year has already been a wild one. Hurley began her caption. I mean, Elizabeth, this picture is wild. She is absolutely gorgeous. After shouting her out, her longtime collaboration with Estee Lauder. Oh, and she got paid for this and her eponymous swim episode eponymous hippopotamus swimwear brand. She the actress Gus and gushed. And I'm in love. She added, feeling very blessed and grateful for having the best friend and family in the world Pick taken this afternoon in my birthday suit. Xx yeah, I mean, and then they show a picture of them too. I mean, it looks like they share hair ties. Billy Ray. I don't know. I'm sorry. Trace. He's definitely not lame. He's a lame dad. Maybe I just like these articles that kind of go together because here's two more articles that kind of go together, both from Page Six. I'm a Page Six guy. That's my first stop. Orlando Bloom brings emotional support Orlando Bloom. I'm sorry I'm going so hard here. Orlando Bloom brings emotional support dog to tonight's show amid cat Katy Perry relationship woes and then. And there's another article. Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom's relationship is on the rocks. Source. I guess we start with the on the Rocks one. Let's see which one was printed first. That one was printed first. There are rumors bubbling that Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom's relationship is on rocky ground. It's over. One source told Page Six. They are waiting till her tour is over, but they split before they split. Perry is currently on her Lifetimes tour which began on April 23. It runs through December 7. That's a long time. The pair first met in 2016 at the Golden Globes after party. They got engaged on Valentine's Day 2019 and welcomed daughter Daisy Dove August 26, 2020. Sources have told People that stress over the poor reception of her new album, 1:43 has caused tension in the star's relationship. That is that could that I'm. I'm trying to figure out if I put out a special that I was like proud of, I guess and my partner wasn't there for me. Yeah, I guess that might cause a rift in the relationship. Katy Perry Katie was deeply frustrated following the reception of her new album, a source told the pub. It made her very stressed. Orlando was understanding but it does did cause some tension or he didn't wasn't understanding. Another source told the magazine. She was also disappointed in some of the tour. Reviews put stress on their relationship. Spies tell Page Six that Balloon was spending time in Miami, Florida last month. The couple previously split for a year in 2017. So they've done this. Perry addressed the past break on caller Daddy in 2024, saying we weren't really in it from day one. He was. Because he had just done a huge time. He was. Because he had just done a huge time of celibacy and had set intentions. I was fresh out of a relationship and I was like, I can't do this anymore. I need to swim in different pond. But I had to do a lot of real work. That same month, the pop star told people, Orlando and I, when we argue, we are argue kind of hot and fast and then cool really quickly. It's like loud. La la. I love you. All right, let's move on. Well, that doesn't seem like good communication. So then we have Orlando Bloom brings emotional support dog to Tonight Show Amid the Katy Perry relationship woes, Orlando Bloom brought a special guest to his Tonight Show. I mean, to me, what's he on? What's he going on the Tonight show for? Amid rumors that his relationship with Katy Perry is on the rocks, the actor held his dog Biggie Smalls during the Tuesday interview, joking that he did so because he's emotional. When Jimmy Fallon asked whether the 48 year old brings the pup everywhere, Bloom replied, he's a real emotional support animal. Because I'm very emotional right now. Okay. This is the dumbest interview I've ever seen in my entire life. The host, 50, jokingly agreed. You really are. Every time I see you. What is this? What is this? She goes on call her daddy. La la la. Fight over. He goes here. Yeah, I'm really emotional. Really are. In a five minute interview, the duo chatted further about the Troy Stars pet, agreeing he looks fake and is the whisper of a dog Bloom needed while traveling so much. Now the dog is very cute, very small. Bloom adopted the teacup poodle of last year and the canine made a cute cameo on the Today show Monday. So he's bringing the dog everywhere, which is a good strategy if you're in the news for a breakup and you're going on these morning shows and talk shows where it's a three and a half minute interview. You bring the dog. That's about a minute and a half. Now you're. You got a minute to go to go over the movie. No talk of Katie. No. No. One wonders. Well, they didn't get to it. The Carnival Row alum and Perry have shared many dogs since they became an item in 2016. Bloom did not mention his fiance in it. Right. Monday's interview. Despite rampant rumors about their alleged relationship woes making headlines earlier the same day, rampant rumors started by page six. We hear that the pair, who got engaged in 20, 19 are over. So then they go over the last. I don't know what, what's Orlando Bloom being forced to make the rounds for? He must have something going on. But the problem is if you Google Orlando Bloom, what comes up? Like what's he it, what's he doing? He's 48. I feel like Orlando Bloom has been a part of my life for 7,000 years is what's he doing. When you Google for the news, there's a huge, there's a lot of articles. Orlando Bloom's 10,000 pounds treatment to remove microplastics from blood. I don't think you have to do that. That's one of those celebrity things that like, yeah, we're all sitting here with plastics, you know, in us, we're good. All right, let's go exclusive. Now we want to do the listener submitted articles as well. We will get to those. But this one now, the Beckham seemed to have an issue going on. Brooklyn Beckham told his family he wants to no contact with them in heartbreaking feud sources. Now I've talked about this before. It seems like the Beckham, this Brooklyn Beckham and his family just do not get along. Brooklyn Beckham has told his famous family he wants no contact with them and won't respond to their messages. A source po sources tell Page Six. Amid the Beckham's highly publicized family feud, Brooklyn is on A1 is on A, in a. On a timeout from parents Victoria and David. This is like a thing, the no contact with your parents thing. And everyone seems like they suck. Like if you go on TikTok and you see these no contact adults with their parents who are like professing this, they seem miserable and really a big part of the problem. And then if you there's another side to it. There's the parents who are talking about the no contact children saying how awful they are. And those parents seem like parents I wouldn't want to deal with either. They just seem like the two. If you're in a no contact family right now, you're both the problem. I think we can agree on that. As we reported Monday, sources close to Beckham, Brooklyn Beckham, 26, said he was thrilled that his dad is finally getting his long awaited knighthood as he knew it was so important. Former England soccer star Captain Soccer captain David, 50, is set to get his knighthood on Friday which is a huge deal in King Charles birthday honors list. However, Brooklyn Victoria and David's oldest son only found out about the news via the media. We're told so he's out. I don't know. I don't have any taste for the Beckhams. I. I don't think they're interested. I guess they're interesting because I think a lot of it has to do with being British. I think it has to do with her being. I don't know, the kids have. I have no interest in the kids. And I remember we were in. We were in Cannes last year for the U up and Spotify brought us there. And we. They were like, oh my God, Brooklyn Beckham was just walking by. And I was like, do we have to care about the. What's the story with him? Oh, he doesn't talk to his parents. Is this whole thing here? Speaking of the most exhausting people in the universe. Aaron Rodgers confirms marriage to mystery woman after wearing wedding ring. Now this was a story I talked about on the toast with Jackie. And I forget what the. We were wondering if he was married or not. And I was like, this is the most Aaron Rodgers story ever. It's annoying. It's okay. Like, it's one of those things where someone's like, guess my favorite color. And you're like, blue. And they go, no, guess again. And you're like, I don't care. And they're like, you don't care? And it's like green. And you're like, yeah, I'm gonna keep asking, cuz we're talking and you've brought this up and I wanna know why you brought this up, but why are you doing this? It feels like every Aaron Rodgers story is because he says I'm married and then won't say who he's married to. And then Aaron Rodgers will talk about how the media cares and everyone bothers him. But it's like if any stranger walked in through that door that I'm pointing at in my apartment that you can't see me pointing at and was like, hey, Jared, I'm married. I'd go, to who? And they would go, I'm not telling. And I go, well, why? And I would have further questions. So it's the most smug, annoying Aaron Rodgers move to do this. Like, we don't care who you're married to, but just tell us. We don't care that you got married secretly, but tell us who was invited to the function. We don't care who you're dating, Aaron Rodgers, but tell us how you met and how you found her and how this whole thing got started. Like, we don't care, but we have nothing else to care about. And Nothing else to do. And you've just put this ring in our face and said, yeah, I'm married. Okay, we have further questions. Don't come back at us. Well, everyone's so interested in my life. Well, if the media is just gonna be the media, that's the game he plays. He'll bring up something we don't care about, then he brought it up, so we'll ask about it. And then he'll say that we are too interested in his life. This is the Aaron Rodgers playbook. Congratulations are in order for Aaron Rodgers and his mystery bride. The new Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback confirmed he tied the knot a couple months ago as he spoke with reporters on Tuesday following his first practice with the team. During the press conference, the NFL star confirmed that the band he's been wearing on his finger, his ring finger, is in fact a wedding ring. He declined to share any further details regarding his wife or. Or their nuptials or the existence of this woman. That's a crazy person thing to do. I. And it's so him. This is why he's enraging. He thinks he gets to play. Oh, I'm always one step ahead of you losers who care too much about my life. Aaron, you brought us here. If anyone came up to me, I'm married. How'd you meet? I'm not telling you. Okay, cool. But do you want to know? Yeah, kind of. But you brought this up. All right, let's do. So we have like follow ups. Justin Bieber not doing well has been kind of a theme lately on this show. And he doesn't look well. There was a side by side picture, but I didn't think that's fair. I think it was like a. Literally, it was a picture of him at like 13 with a picture of him at like now. And you're like, okay, well, people age and I'm looking at him. I. You know the article titled Justin Bieber claps back at concerns about his well being as fans beg him to get help. That's crazy. Fans begging you to get help. Just go worry about your own life. Life can't be that good. You're only allowed to say, hey, get help to Justin Bieber. If you're typing it from your private plane on your vacation, not during the work hours because it's not your responsibility to tell. You don't know what is going on with Justin Bieber's life. Justin Bieber hit back at concerns about his well being with a pithy response. On May 21, a meme account shared a screenshot of a text message from somebody dubbed Grandpa who wrote, I'm worried about Justin Bieber. And a day later, there's so much heartbreak in Justin's life. A message reading, we all are accompanied in the photo. And the caption said, grandpa thought about it for 24 hours. That description didn't help me understand. So I'm looking at the text. I'm worried about Justin. There's so much heartbreak in Justin's life. So yesterday, slash today. Okay, let's listen. Anyone could have produced that. This text from Grandpa. And then Justin Bieber commented, worry about yourself, gramps. Yeah, I'm with Justin. Worry about yourself. Random text that anyone could have screenshot on their own phone. You could have done Mammy from Mammy. Our mammy. I thought she died. Billy Ray didn't come to the funeral. Okay. Another follow up, Brooke Shields, who I thought seemed awesome and I've only heard good things about. She did a podcast where she kind of like gave me Brooke Shields podcast interview criticizing Too precious. Meghan Markle got taken down. Brooke Shields recent podcast interview in which he criticized Meghan Markle. Meghan Markle's too precious behavior at their south by Southwest panel has been taken down. This is making Pete to me. There's only one outcome of that. We think less of Meghan Markle. I don't see this and go, oh, Brooke Shields felt bad about it. I think this is Meghan Markle's. I would assume Meghan Markle's people. She has the money to have people get things taken down. I don't know. That's conspiratorial out of me. The link to Shields interview on India Hicks and unexpected. An Unexpected Journey podcast that premiered earlier this month now takes prospective listeners to a page not found message. Why would you take it? Taking it down? We were done with this story. Unless you want this story to continue. Because to me, the story was she's at a. She's at an event. Meghan Markle is going on and on about how she got a commercial taken out and it got a little too serious in the room and Brooke Shields made a la. Made a joke and got a laugh out of it. Now, if I'm Meghan Markle, am I not happy about that? Yeah, I can understand that. But they let it go. Let it go down the river. The river moves quick these days. Okay, let's go. We have some listener submitted ones that I want to get to and you can send them j train podcastmail.com j train podcastmail.com I'm trying to make sure I find this in the, in my emails. Here they are. Okay, so here's. I like this one. Okay, we got two articles from listeners. You can send yours in J Train podcast. Com. This title, I like this title. As I wait for the title to pop up. Okay, Bella Hadid has never been ghosted. I mean, I guess she went on Chicken Shop Date, which is a very popular show and out of England. Let's listen to it. She's. Have you ever been ghosted? No. And then they laugh and then listen, she says, no, that is not surprising. But like, the idea that, like, because she's beautiful, she's never been ghosted. I think that's a false premise. I think everyone gets ghosted. I think it's more because she's one of the most famous people alive. And you know, if she's dating someone, that someone wants to make sure they've done right by her. It's. I, I talk about this. I've talked about this for years on the podcast on you up on J Train. It's my aunt theory. When you date someone and there's an aunt watching, that person acts more appropriately. That's why people are horrific on the dating apps. The idea that Bella Hadid or Gigi, whatever, Hadid, has never been ghosted. No, because people are watching. In the same way. There's someone zooming in on Travis Kelsey's bag that's open to see what book is inside of it. Men who, if we're talking about men, generally know this. So when you get introduced by an aunt, people hate setups because they don't work out. And I would say that's a good reason to like a setup. When you get set up by an aunt, I have to go to the aunt and go. They go, how'd it go with Lindsay? And my. And I go, wow. If I went to my aunt and I was like, well, she blew me. And then I haven't talked to her since, my aunt would be like, what the fuck? I set you up with Lindsay. I work with her. So the Bella Hadid story will be painted as beautiful woman never gets ghosted. I don't think that's fair to us. Mediocre looking people. Beautiful people get boat goes to last one. Mr. Beast takes over Disneyland for $500,000. Date night in empty Park. Yeah, I guess I would like one of these things that shows me what $500,000 means to Mr. Beast. Because if he makes, let's say he makes $500,000 a month, not still not a big deal. Mr. Beast is pulling out all the stops for a one of a kind date night with an eye popping price tag. The content creator, whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson, spent weeks planning dates for his fiance and himself in a recent video shared on YouTube. I mean, so he didn't spend 500,000. He got YouTube revenue off of the date he did with his fiance where they both make more money in the process. I I this is a non story. This is like when the Bachelor takes one of the contestants on the Cinderella date. Oh my God. The shoes, the dress. Well, he bought none of it. This isn't real. This is easy. And nothing against Mr. Beast. Well, oh I do like what he did. So this is a Mr. This is the Mr. Beast way. I'm going to do an eye popping thing and gamify it. I now I'm, I'm on so the content creator, whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson, spent weeks planning dates for his fiance Thea Boysen and himself in a recent video shared on YouTube. After the pair went on a number of romantic excursions costing anywhere from one dollar to a hundred thousand, the couple headed to the headed to the grand finale. A $500,000 private date at Disney. I am interested in this. Disney won't just hand over the keys to anyone. But for this once in a lifetime date, we were given the entire park for one night. Mr. B said in a vid in the video's voiceover. So I guess he went on dates. I would like to see the dollar date, the $10 date, the hundred dollar date, the the thousand dollar date, the the 10,000. Because the video is titled One versus Five Hundred Thousand Dollar Romantic Day, the fiance's generously included a few other folks in their date, including the boys, some friends they met on their private island date which cost a hundred thousand and Madison beer. The group. I don't know who that is. The group first wandered start. I don't care what they did. I want to know what the other dates were. Now what was the dollar date? So they go through all I don't care about to me. Show us the $10 date. Show us the dollar date. Is it a walk? And here's some gum. Oh, there's ads. Okay, well we're not 3, 2, 1 to skip the ad as I vamp. I'm sorry, it's a 17 minute video. Oh, we're going on the most expensive dates in the world. Oh, so this is all the Disney date. I gotta say if you're like MTV and you're seeing what Mr. Beast is doing. He ate your lunch. Every one of these videos he does is MTV shows. Daytime MTV shows. And it just shows how when you're successful, you are moving like an elephant, because this guy was moving like a cheetah. MTV was fat and happy. They're like, we have, you know, TV's great. And then this guy was on YouTube doing their shows. Well, good for Mr. Beast. Maybe I'm the fat elephant. I should have done this. I don't know. I wanted to tell jokes and get laughs. So I'm a big fucking loser. Okay, back next week. Boom.
