That is so funny. And then last night, I was out late again. I'm literally out late every single night, you guys, like.
Claudia Oshry

Jackie Oshry
You should be worried.
Claudia Oshry
Out late.
Jackie Oshry
I was out late at a club last night. A comedy club. Watch.
Claudia Oshry

Claudia Oshry
Let's go, Diana.
Jackie Oshry
It was so funny, and I just had the best time. The show was amazing. I know Shannon has two more shows left, and then I don't know if she'll add more, but, like, she's gonna be in New Orleans and Texas. Like, go see her. It was so, so good and so funny and a great night out and so swirly. Like, the elk of attendees was a par. Delicious crowd.
Claudia Oshry
And she's in your house right now.
Jackie Oshry
And she's in my house right now. Her and James spent the night, and we've actually been having, like, an amazing time, actually.
Claudia Oshry
That's amazing.
Jackie Oshry
Of course we have in. Chan came yesterday. Then we all met.
Claudia Oshry
Did you guys drink some shooters and just sit around and soak? Soak up each other's awesomeness?
Jackie Oshry
Literally have quite literally been sitting around soaking each other's awesomeness. Like, sitting at the kitchen table. Yesterday we had, you know, those Caesar wraps at my kitchen table. This morning was just like, coffee. I got bagels like sid. It was actually, like, hard to tear myself away from.
Claudia Oshry
Shannon, I'm so sorry to have been Such a disruption in your lovely day. Yeah.
Jackie Oshry
Such an inconvenience. But I know they're waiting for me to be, like, done with this, and then we can get back together again.
Claudia Oshry
All right, So I won't. I won't, like, you know, dilly dally, wasting time talking about church self.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. But it's just been, like, it's really nice to have them here. Loved going to the show, and I highly recommend everyone attend. She is just so funny, and she has the funniest, craziest stories.
Claudia Oshry
She really does. I went a couple of weeks ago, and it's like, the Shannon I know, she tells a lot of stories, like, from her past, I think. Really? Before we knew her.
Jackie Oshry
Even before.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah. She's like a homesteading trad wife. We're on the same journey very much. And I can't really picture her being that way, but, like, I also can, but.
Jackie Oshry
And the way she, like, walks the line and, like, toggles between, like, present Shannon, like, fabulous married. Yeah. Like a fancy lady. And the shen of yore is just so funny.
Claudia Oshry
Well, if you're gonna talk about, like, your tnn talent, I'll talk about mine.
Jackie Oshry
Okay. Your husband.
Claudia Oshry
Well, they've been teasing a special project, and they said by the time this episode comes out, they will have announced it on Instagram. So we can talk about. The big secret reveal for the good guys is that Drake Bell is on the podcast on Monday. He's actually on Monday and Thursday of next week. It was, like, two and a half hours, so they had to split it up into two episodes. And let me tell you, Ben was supposed to fly out there, and he got really sick. That's the sickness that got me sick. So we ended up doing it remotely, which I actually think was better. He was very much like a. Almost like a mediator between the two. And when he got home, it was like. It's kind of like this heaviness on him. I'm like, well, how was it? And sure, he was like, honestly, everyone was crying. We had to, like, stop at certain points because, like, the producers were crying, the guy in New York was crying, the guy in L. A. Was crying. It was just, like, very emotional. And Ben was like, you know, Ben, you said it best. And I have been cracking up thinking about it. That Ben is Forrest Gump.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. He just finds himself in the middle of all of these historic events.
Claudia Oshry
Yes. Yes. And it's so true, like, how Ben kind of not facilitated because, like, he had nothing to do with getting Drake on the show. But the conversation how he found himself in the middle of what is such an important cultural moment.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah.
Claudia Oshry
Is so crazy to me, and I cannot wait for everybody to see it. It's so. Drake is so cute. Like, he got super dressed up and I was like. Ben was like. It was so emotional. I'm like, well, what part of it was emotional? And. And I don't want to spoil it, but Ben was just like, it's so clear. Like, Drake loves Josh so much, and I think that they really thought the other, like, had ill will against them, but they now know, like, in hindsight, they were both going through a lot. Through a lot at the time of the show and then after the show.
Jackie Oshry
About nor did anyone.
Claudia Oshry
Right. So it's kind of been like this 20 year journey.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah.
Claudia Oshry
That they. They're now kind of coming full circle and they talk about everything that's healing.
Jackie Oshry
Coach.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah, no, Ben said it was very healing. Like, it was very heavy. And they had fun afterwards. And Ben, like, you know, his first question, he, like, is obsessed with the theme song, and he had to ask Drake, like, a million questions about it. Ben lived out his childhood dream. Like, there was a lot of healing going on. We talked about trauma, but Ben Safer's experience was fulfilling a lifelong childhood dream.
Jackie Oshry
And did they say, hug me, brother?
Claudia Oshry
Oh, no. You know what they did do? I don't want to spoil it.
Jackie Oshry
Did they do make him.
Claudia Oshry
I'm sure that they did, but they also, like, reenacted a scene that they both happened to just, like, memorize. It's from the Amanda show. That's where they met. They were. They talked about the Amanda show, too. And this thing they were, like, known for, I forget what it was. They both remembered it, like, verbatim and they acted out. I'm telling you, Ben Topper was in heaven.
Jackie Oshry
Oh, my God. Well, I'm happy for Ben. I'm happy for Drake and Josh, for the healing, and I'm happy for everyone who will get to witness such a wonderful reunion.
Claudia Oshry
I also think it's a great, like, end of the story. I think Drake Bell has kind of reemerged in the last year. Um, I think we all understand him a little bit better now. And there was this question about, like, well, what. What does this mean for Drake and Josh?
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. And what did it mean for Drake and Josh at the time?
Claudia Oshry
And I can't speak for Josh, but I imagine it was difficult to not want to, like, step on Drake's toes when, you know, last year, everybody's sort of coming to. To know Drake's story. And there was, like, questions about Josh. And so I think this was a really good way of them sitting down and having that conversation.
Jackie Oshry
I can't speak for Josh either. And if anyone could speak for Josh, it would be more you than me. But I would also.
Claudia Oshry
But I can't.
Jackie Oshry
I can also imagine that, like, at that time, like, if anybody even asked him about it, like, everything that he felt and would have said about it, it's not something you can answer in one question, like, no, it's something that requires two and a half hours of really, like, excavating what happened and talking about your pov. So I'm glad that he's able, like, that he's had the place to do that.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah, I saw a picture of, like, Drake and Josh after they filmed. Like, I was seriously not okay. It's so crazy. So that comes out on Monday on the Good Guys podcast and Thursday. And then Jackie obviously makes a cameo. Megan.
Jackie Oshry
Megan. I make a cameo.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah. Megan. Speaking of Megan.
Jackie Oshry
Speaking of Megan, a lot of people are commenting, like, what they think Megan meant by what she said. And I actually spoke to Amanda about it.
Claudia Oshry
So did I.
Jackie Oshry
Okay. And Amanda, like, really, like, believes her. She, like, really that she thinks it was, like, sweet. And she thinks, like, Meghan was, like, worried about her for being scared. Like, don't be scared. Like, it will be fun. Yes.
Claudia Oshry
It was all very, like, sweet, earnest, not snarky. I think our audience kind of more so agreed with me that Amanda's post was not even remotely snarky. But there's a chance that Meghan's was.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah, but no, even more so. They're trending towards, like, Megan's wasn't snarky. Like, it was sincere. And so I've been chewing on what Amanda said. Like, no, she really wants to help me not be scared.
Claudia Oshry
Right. And I want to walk her through this dark time.
Jackie Oshry
And I really, I want to be like, someone who could believe that. But I just feel like if you were writing a letter to a fan, like, helping them from their fears, that you would also add, like, another line, like, thanks for your support. I hope you love the show.
Claudia Oshry
Yep.
Jackie Oshry
Go, women, go. You know what I mean?
Claudia Oshry
No, Like, I said the same thing to Amanda. I said, maybe I'm just negative, but, like, I do. I actually cannot see a world in which there wasn't, like, a little bit of sass here.
Jackie Oshry
I just feel like if it was positive, there would have been more positivity and it was just ambiguous, like a two word card. Like, it's threatening to me. I'm sorry. And I, I'm really trying to like be an optimist and believe Amanda because she's the recipient so she might know how it felt. But I'm having a really hard time and I've been reading all the comments and like, I love, I love everyone, like thinking that this is a sweet thing. To me, it's sour.
Claudia Oshry
But also something I've learned from the show and just like getting to know Megan, not super well, but better in the last couple of weeks and months is that she kind of has like a quirky personality. So it's possible that her attempt at like a joke or like a sweetness type of thing is falling flat for me. Maybe I'm not understanding it.
Jackie Oshry
Maybe I, I think that's also a good theory.
Claudia Oshry
Maybe funky.
Jackie Oshry
And the more that I think about it, the more I'm confounded and like my brain just turns to mush. So I'm gonna have to move on from it.
Claudia Oshry
Yep. But it is single handedly the craziest thing that's happened this year. We actually have a lot to do today. We have Queenie and Weenie of the week. You watch Southern Charm finale. Lots. Lots to discuss.
Jackie Oshry
I have to say. I have to say I didn't finish it. I was bone tired. I got up.
Claudia Oshry
Oh, from having so much fun.
Jackie Oshry
From being out late. It was really late. But I did the same thing with Summer House the night before. I was out, got home at the same time. Turn on Summer House. We watch. I got up in the middle of Southern term to just brush my teeth to prepare for bed. When I came back in bed, I was like, I am too tired. I'm not do like I need to put my health first. I need to listen to my body. And I turned it off so I can.
Claudia Oshry
So the SCQ will suffer, but your mental health will not.
Jackie Oshry
The SCQ will suffer. However, this morning when I was looking for stories like I don't think anything really major happened by way of like conversation about the page stuff. Like I think it's all stuff we already know.
Claudia Oshry
I watched a recap from one of my favorite like Bravo Tiktokers today because I wanted to like, you know, show up a little prepared and the vanita, like the other castmate stuff kind of went over my head because I need more explanation. But and the thing I was really focused on was a conversation between Austin, Craig and Shep at the end that where they pick up cameras and he said everything that was like teased thus far is really what the meat and potatoes was. There was nothing new, nothing fresh. Yeah, no, the interesting part where like Craig's disposition at the time was like, you know, very not angry, sad, confused. He had offered to move to New York for her and ultimately when she broke up with him, she was like, if you did that, like, you would come to hate me and resent me and maybe would like make you happy in that moment, but not for the rest of our lives. And I actually think that's a fair thing to say. So it wasn't like very contentious or drama filled. It was, I feel like what we've been saying now, like the resounding theme here is sad.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. And I don't think anything so terrible happened in the relationship. And all of the dramatics are what's happened after. And that's what's led to them, like, really disliking each other when it started out. Really respectful.
Claudia Oshry
Okay, so no Southern charm recap. That's totally fine. We will just do Queenie and Weenie. And I have really good ones.
Jackie Oshry
I'm really excited for Queenie and we need. There were a lot of candidates this week, right.
Claudia Oshry
For me, for the Weenie of the week. I'm kind of using it as an opportunity to talk to you about something that happened to me. And I need you to be my sounding board and let me know if, like, I'm being sensitive. Okay.
Jackie Oshry
Oh, I love that I'm cracking up because ever since we did an episode for Patreon, like, not to like, rub it in your face face if you're not a patron. But we.
Claudia Oshry
But we are. Rub it in.
Jackie Oshry
Patreon.com toast naggy wife. And I was, I was like, running by you. Something that, like, my husband and I had been arguing about. And the gum and the console in the car, which, like, I feel like I do. I. I understand where I'm coming from, but I really, I'm really like being like, much more.
Claudia Oshry
Let's just back it up really quickly. For anybody who's new here, Jackie and I, we have a Patreon. It's patreon.com the toast. You get five extra episodes a month for $7.99. It's a great way to support the toast and also get to know us a little bit better. We talk a lot more like, behind the scenes stuff. We do stuff on business. We do vlogs, Our husbands. People love it. It's kind of like an amazing thing. You can join anytime. And once you do join, you get access to every episode. We've Ever done, like, the greats, the great chili, cook off, whatever. And we do a kind of, I would say, quarterly installment called Naggy bitch Wife, where people write in, and I'm like, am I being a naggy bitch wife or, like, my husband? Wrong. And we often share our own. Like, when Ben wipes down the counters with a dish rag instead of a paper towel, like, the bane of my existence. And Jackie was like, okay, am I being a nagging bitch wife? And she shared something with me, and it was kind of the first time ever where I was like, I think you are being an aggie ditch wife. Like, I think your husband is actually. I hate to say these words, not doing anything wrong.
Jackie Oshry
So here's what it was like. When we're in the car and we're with the. Like, with our family, and he's driving, and I'm in the passenger seat, and I go into the console to get, like, hand sanitizer or gum. I use the product, I take what I want, and then I put it back in. I shut the console. And right when I shut the console, he said, were you gonna offer me some? And I'm just like, if you want some, speak up. Like, it's not. It's not my. It's both. Like, feel free to just let me know if you want. I'm like, why do you wait till I put it away? Like, ask for it?
Claudia Oshry
Well, the waiting is definitely annoying. And. But what I had said is that.
Jackie Oshry
Like, I should 100% offering him, and I'm rude to him.
Claudia Oshry
When you open the console as the passenger princess, especially for gum, it is kind of on you to offer it to every other adult passenger, especially the driver.
Jackie Oshry
So I have been doing that, and I'm doing a really good job. But what's funny is, I was in my car with Shannon.
Claudia Oshry
I'm doing a really good job.
Jackie Oshry
I'm doing a good job of remembering, actually. It's, like, stuck in my head now. I can't take a piece of gum without my day being room ruined. But I was in my car with Shannon yesterday, because Shannon's here. We're having an amazing time, and.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah, we know.
Jackie Oshry
And I took, like, some mints from my console, and I immediately offered them to her because, of course, I'm not a monster. But it's a different dynamic when it's a guest versus, like, it's Zach and ice car. Like, why we gotta be driving formal. I was driving. And also, I feel like you had said, like, when someone's driving, you're the passenger. Like, you're there to, like, make them comfortable with the driver. Like, yeah, when you have kids in the car, the driver is the one having a peaceful experience. The passenger is the one twisting around, picking up everything I dropped. Snacks, drinks, books, toys. So it's not like, all hail the driver. Okay.
Claudia Oshry
Oh, my God. Wait. Thank you so much for reminding me. I have to tell you about something that's going on on Tick Tock.
Jackie Oshry
Okay?
Claudia Oshry
It's. It's like. It's like a baby company. It's baby company drama.
Jackie Oshry
Okay?
Claudia Oshry
And I found myself on it because very unfortunately, I keep getting targeted for this bassinet that they're selling on Tik Tok Shop. Like, obviously would never buy, like, a bassinet on a TikTok shop. Let me tell you. We keep saying, like, I'm having a hard time finding a bassinet. It's exactly what I need.
Jackie Oshry
Bassinet on wheels that you can see through.
Claudia Oshry
A bassinet on wheels that I could see through. It has, like, it can change levels. It can rock back and forth. If you wanted to, you can move the wheels. And I'm, like, kind of thinking about buying this bassinet from Tik Tok Shop. I don't know, it just. It feels wrong. I don't know. Whatever. But so now I'm, like, on this side of TikTok. And do you know the snoo, Snoop?
Jackie Oshry
Yeah.
Claudia Oshry
Okay.
Jackie Oshry
Everybody knows the snow.
Claudia Oshry
Okay? So the company that manufactures the snoo is called Happiest Baby, and they have found themselves in major drama. Ready? I'm gonna tell you what happened. So there was an influencer. I don't know her name. I'm so sorry, because I'm new here. She was pregnant, and I think she got gifted a snoo bassinet. And I don't know exactly what happened. I know she went into labor and she ended up losing her baby. And the company reached out asking for the bassinet back. And we only know this because the influencer, who has not been online at all, her sister, was, like, on social media, just, like, posting some stuff about her sister and prayers or whatever. And she was just, like, not to be that girl, but so unbelievably shocked that I think the company's called Happiest Baby, asked my sister for the bassinet back. Meanwhile, like, some of the other partners, like Factor Meals has not stopped sending meals for my sister. Like, everybody's rallying around supporting her, and now people are, like, burning their Snoo bassinets. The company has responded and basically was like, oh, we just wanted to remove, like, a trigger for her. Like, maybe coming home. The bassinet would have been triggering. I don't know. It's kind of crazy.
Jackie Oshry
That's really messy.
Claudia Oshry
I'm like, I know.
Jackie Oshry
That's really. It's almost shocking to believe that, like, they.
Claudia Oshry
I know something.
Jackie Oshry
I do. I'm kind of like, wait, like, is there more to this story? I want to give them the benefit because that's crazy. And they just, like, give away snooze. Who cares if you gave one? It didn't get used.
Claudia Oshry
Literally. Or posted about. Yeah, that's what they cared about. Not that it didn't get used. That it's not getting posted about.
Jackie Oshry
That's really not crazy.
Claudia Oshry
What do you think about buying a bassinet from Tick Tock Shop?
Jackie Oshry
I would just, like, look at the. How it's me. But doesn't everyone sell on Tick Tock Shop? I don't know enough about, like, Shop isn't like a vendor. It's like a.
Claudia Oshry
It's a. It's like a distribution. Okay.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah, yeah, yeah. What's wrong with that?
Claudia Oshry
I don't know. Because. Yeah. Like Tarte Cosmetics. You can buy, like, you can buy brands.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah.
Claudia Oshry
On. But I don't know this brand.
Jackie Oshry
Well, look into the brand.
Claudia Oshry
It doesn't say what brand. And it's not fugly either. Something that's ugly. 89, is that too low?
Jackie Oshry
I know it's like, that's supposed to be good, but, like, I just feel.
Claudia Oshry
It'S also a steal because it's what they're saying. On Tick Tock Shop, you get what you pay for. Sometimes I know stuff, especially newborn stuff. Like, I'm. I'm not embracing my inner cheapo.
Jackie Oshry
And like, an 89 bassinet are usually, like, travel ones, foldable ones, ones for outside. Like, ones that are almost like a package. So it's like, made of wood. Piece of wood. What is the quality?
Claudia Oshry
It's made of mesh. Like the mesh lining.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah, but what's the fabric?
Claudia Oshry
The legs are wood. It kind of doesn't look so bad. I'll send you a link.
Jackie Oshry
Okay. Send me a link.
Claudia Oshry
I know. I don't think I can. I can in good faith, like, have my best nappy from Tick Tock Shop.
Jackie Oshry
Same thing. They should charge more for it just because that just feels really low. Cribs are like a thousand dollars.
Claudia Oshry
It's not the money for me.
Jackie Oshry
No, but it's what it.
Claudia Oshry
It's. It's. I don't know, like, what is it? It's what Tick Tock Shop represents that I can't.
Jackie Oshry
I don't know what it represents because I'm not on Tick Tock Shop.
Claudia Oshry
It's weird. It's a weird thing to do.
Jackie Oshry
Okay, well, why don't you get that one that we like from Pottery Barn? Even though, like, I'm going to. They don't do gifting. But you love it.
Claudia Oshry
No, but I'm gonna get it. But a bassinet that you can't see through, it seems really crazy to me.
Jackie Oshry
No, it's not really crazy. It's just like, nice when it's mesh and you could see through. But I think it's fine. It's like woven. Yours. Cute.
Claudia Oshry
It's. It's power. G. Yeah, we'll say. Okay, how are the stories?
Jackie Oshry
Random as.
Claudia Oshry
Oh, love that. Okay, should we dive in?
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. Without further ado, here are the fast five stories that you need to know. You know what? I think I accidentally left it off for a reason.
Claudia Oshry

Jackie Oshry
It's true. I just got a party box from Thrive Market yesterday. The shipping is so quick, the products are so good. If you want to be living a cleaner, healthier lifestyle and you don't want to think too much about what that.

Today's episode, oh, excuse me. Is also brought to you by Nutrafol. So if you've experienced any sort of hair issues, whether that's shedding, thinning for me, like after I lost a bunch of weight and really changed my diet. I had like a ton of scalp visibility by my forehead. It was one of the worst things that ever happened to me. And so many people recommended neutrophil supplements. And let me tell you, one of the best things I ever did was taking control of that. Because for me, hair is everything. Dealing with shedding or thinning is really, really hard. And Nutrafol is here to help. Their whole body approach to hair health works from the inside out so you can start loving your hair again. It is the number one dermatologist recommended hair growth supplement brand. It's trusted by over one and a half million people. If you want to see thicker, stronger, faster growing hair with less shedding in just three to six months, you can do so with Nutrafol. So if you're unfamiliar hair shedding, it'll happen like you're brushing your hair. For me, like if I would shower or just like run my fingers through my hair or sit down to curl my hair, the amount of fallout would just be abnormal. And it really freaked me out. And as somebody who's always had thick hair, I never had to think about it. It was just the worst feeling. So knowing where to turn when that happens, because it can happen for a million different reasons.

Jackie Oshry
Our first story, Kelly Clarkson celebrated the thousandth episode of her show the Kelly Clarkson show. However, in a long speech that she gave an emotional speech, she said that she's lost kind alone. Yeah, she's confusing people because she gave an emotional speech in Thursday's episode while celebrating a thousand shows since the launch of the Kelly Clarkson in show.
Claudia Oshry
And is she back?
Jackie Oshry
She's back. She's been back, yeah.
Claudia Oshry
Okay.
Jackie Oshry
Never said where she went.
Claudia Oshry
Normalize like Keeping things to yourself, it's true.
Jackie Oshry
Like, do your thing. But then she gave this speech about her show. We have laughed together, we have cried together with beautiful stories, sang together with some people, danced together, celebrated and competed together. I've lost alone a lot. I've lost, comma, alone, comma, a lot. She. It's unclear what she was referring to, but after her studio audience hesitantly laughed at the comments, she paused to assure them it's okay. She also thanks her casting crew for lending and finding comfort in one another. We've created a community and supported each other through a lot of ups and downs. A lot of ups and downs personally as well. So, like, she keeps bringing it back.
Claudia Oshry
Right. Right. Well, here's the thing. Timeline of Kelly's divorce was post Kelly Clarkson show. Like, or she got divorced before even getting the pilot.
Jackie Oshry
Before she got started the show in 2019.
Claudia Oshry
It was a long divorce because it was messy financially.
Jackie Oshry
Right. But like, when did she leave him? Right.
Claudia Oshry
When did they officially like stop being husband and wife? You know, in a.
Jackie Oshry
She filed for divorce June 2020. Okay. So she had started. So she went through all of this on the show.
Claudia Oshry
Okay. I mean, two things to say. One, like, we'll get into the salaciousness of that. Strange comment, but major kudos to Kelly. A thousand episodes for a talk show is a huge milestone. Especially because every single talk show is fail. Like fails. Like they never get off the ground. You get one season, a success is considered. If you get a second season. Like when you think of all the greats who, no disrespect to them, have just failed at this particular medium. Kelly's a queen.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. Even if her show ended tomorrow for whatever reason, like, this was a successful show, Major. And I actually think whenever she wants.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah. I think it's also still currently at its peak, so I don't even think she would end it.
Jackie Oshry
No, but like say she's over it or.
Claudia Oshry
Right.
Jackie Oshry
She got a better job opportunity. Somewhere like this will forever be known as a successful daytime talk show.
Claudia Oshry
No, NBC loves her. She is the face of the network. She keeps getting better time slots, better studios. They keep giving her Rockefeller tree. Like they love her. It's a great gig for her too because she gets to do like supplemental stuff within NBC like the tree lighting. She gets to like, you know, do the voice or if you want to do that, those high paying gigs.
Jackie Oshry
That sounds like fun.
Claudia Oshry
It. You know, my dream job is to be like a judge on a singing show.
Jackie Oshry
I think that would be really hard for you with everybody Else singing and you just have to sit there.
Claudia Oshry
No, they sing plenty. You know, like those. Those judges, like, always find a way to make it about themselves. Not only, like, on the Voice, they have, like, you know, quarterly performances where the four of them sing together. That's one of my favorites. When Reba Nile, John Legend and Gwen Stefani, I've been running down the road trying to loosen my. Like Niall and Niall Horan and Reba were. They were vibing so hard, like, I ship, you know. Yeah, yeah. And they always, like. Then they get up, they do a duet, you know, with their. With their contestant. They're like, oh, you're on my team. We'll sing together.
Jackie Oshry
They are.
Claudia Oshry
There are plenty of opportunities for them to get on stage. And I just love hearing people sing and I love telling them, like, they could do better, you know, it's just my dream job. So. Sorry not to make Kelly's story about me. Congrats, Kelly.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah, congrats. I hope that she's okay. I hope it's just the stuff that we think it is, you know, the divorce.
Claudia Oshry
It's good. It's hard to get divorced publicly.
Jackie Oshry
Co parenting.
Claudia Oshry
And it wasn't like it was the most pleasant divorce. The money stuff, the custody stuff.
Jackie Oshry
I'm just saying I hope it's not new stuff. I know it's giving new stuff because I know she hasn't came out in a while.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah, the album came out and that kind of felt like a bookend, you know, it was talking about the highs and lows, but overall, like, she's a queen and she's Kelly and like, we're moving on. Ms. Moving on.
Jackie Oshry
Like, the divorce was settled in 2022, so, like, it. Even if she was not happy with the final arrangement, like, it's passed. So this feels like new stuff. And that's sad.
Claudia Oshry
What's going on in Kelly's life?
Jackie Oshry
I don't know.
Claudia Oshry
She's such a unique celebrity that we actually don't know a lot about her personal life because she spends her days talking to others and letting them talk about themselves.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. And because she's not going to be, like, out there dating Pete Davidson. Like, she likes a regular guy.
Claudia Oshry
She does. She likes, like, an industry.
Jackie Oshry
She's got her head on straight.
Claudia Oshry
Correct. Do you think Kelly has a boyfriend?
Jackie Oshry
I feel like she dates.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah.
Jackie Oshry
Maybe she broke up with her boyfriend.
Claudia Oshry
Possible.
Jackie Oshry
You know, just something normal like that.
Claudia Oshry
She lives in New York now, so. A New York, you know, businessman.
Jackie Oshry
No. But not too slick.
Claudia Oshry
No, not too slick. I mean, when you Live in LA or when she was in Nashville. It's, like, easy to find people in the industry who aren't, like, famous but who work in the industry and, like, get, you know, understand your lifestyle. In New York, like, there's not so much, like, Hollywood industry people, you know, which is good. Yeah. So maybe she. I think she lives outside of the city, I would imagine, with her kids, like. Yeah, Westchester.
Jackie Oshry
A single dad at the school.
Claudia Oshry
Love. Who has a hedge fund, but he doesn't have to go in every day. Like.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah, we're, like, kind of old. And now he, like, day trades at home and listens to Kelly Clarkson and watches the show.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah. Maybe they met at the country club. That's, like, so something like, Kelly would take her kids. There's, like, pumpkin painting at the country club, and he's there just having lunch after golf.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. Single dad for sure.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah. With grown kids.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah.
Claudia Oshry
Like, he's a little bit older. His kids are, like, high school, college age, and they live with their mother, and they have a really good relationship.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. Because hers are really young and they need to be in the house, and we're gonna focus on them.
Claudia Oshry
It's a lot. Yeah.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. We're not blending. I don't want blending.
Claudia Oshry
No.
Jackie Oshry
Like, it's hard to blend. It's a beautiful thing when it works, but, like, it's hard to get there.
Claudia Oshry
Not only that, like, Kelly actually has too much going on. I actually don't think her plate can handle being an active stepmom. Honestly.
Jackie Oshry
She can't.
Claudia Oshry
Because, you know, she would want to give it her all.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah.
Claudia Oshry
No, she can't. She's too busy.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. It's true. Are you ready for our next story?
Claudia Oshry
Yeah.
Jackie Oshry
Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco released their collaborative album called and nobody moved. I know. Called I said I love you first. So the two of them have released a joint album called I said I love you first. It's 14 songs and a music video for the piano ballad younger and hotter than me. There's a bunch of collabs. Also, Phineas worked on the album as well as Charlie xcx. Gracie Abrams is featured on a song, as is J. Balvin.
Claudia Oshry
The crazy part about this is that there's no reason it should flop. And I know it's, like, too soon to tell. It came out last night. But, like, there has been no hype. No one's talking about it. Betty Blanco is, like, a certified hit maker. Everything he touched turns to gold. Every relevant person in the music space was tagged in her Instagram thanking them, like, she had collabs, songwriters, the best of the best. Nobody moved.
Jackie Oshry
I know. And I think a lot of, like, press about them. Like, I think they did a talk show together. They just did that magazine thing where they took those pictures of the feed. I think they've been doing, like, every time I see them. They did Hot one.
Claudia Oshry
Stop trying.
Jackie Oshry
No, like, so they're doing all this press and it's in service of the album, which I've learned today. It's crazy that I didn't know that.
Claudia Oshry
I did, but at the end of the day, like, I judge music and its success based on how much I hear it without trying to. Right. I don't actively sit down and listen to a lot of music, but I know it because it plays at the radio. It plays on Dwayne radio, mostly plays on Tick Tock on social media.
Jackie Oshry
I know the craziest thing that happened. I was like, oh, this song is huge. I was listening to Abracadabra in my car and then I parked and I walked into the place I was going to and it was playing Abracadabra.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah.
Jackie Oshry
Okay. That's ubiquity.
Claudia Oshry
You can know music without ever actively seeking it out. And I think that's the sign of like an actual successful song. And there. I don't know what she did nothing wrong. Like, it was very smart of her to work with Betty Blanco. It was very smart of her to bring on the best of the best songwriters. And Gracie Abrams, everything she touches right now turns to gold. She's headlining Lollapalooza. I don't know what it says about her, the music part of her career that nobody cares.
Jackie Oshry
I don't know what says about her career that nobody cares. Because people love her, right? Like, that's not even a question.
Claudia Oshry
They love her, but right now she's like, beloved for her acting and her mute and her one that I love.
Jackie Oshry
Okay. Lady Gaga. Beloved for her acting. In her makeup. She puts out an album. I'm sad and I'm listening.
Claudia Oshry
Wow. Facts, actually.
Jackie Oshry
So, like, anyone that I love, like, I'm gonna give their singles and their albums a proper shot. And it might not even be until a few weeks later where I'm like, that wasn't so good.
Claudia Oshry
The interesting thing about Selena's career is that, like, she's the most followed person on social media. She's huge. All from what? Like, being a Disney star turned pop star. But her pop star career, and I feel like I only really realized this when I watched her documentary, was very short lived.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah, yeah. She hasn't been a pop star until the documentary either.
Claudia Oshry
And then even after like she stopped being like a touring pop star, she would like release a song a year. Like who's gonna work? Like it was just one song.
Jackie Oshry
She would lend her voice to an existing dance song that's gonna be a hit.
Claudia Oshry
There's also a lot going on with her, Haley and Justin on the Internet right now. I have not gotten down to the bottom of it. It's all started with like this 7 part tick tock series. I don't know enough about it. I. I am far too sound of mind an individual to get like in the weeds on this. Like I'll set. I've said it once, I'll say it again. Like, leave Haley Bieber the alone. Like I'm so sick of it for her.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah, I heard about it. I haven't seen any of it and I'm really not interested.
Claudia Oshry
I don't know who started it. I don't know. Oh, she's a stalker. He. She posted a childhood photo and then Haley posted a childhood photo. Like, stop it. Stop it. I really, I can't fucking take it anymore.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah, but even if all that's true, you know, say it is, which I don't think it is, but say it is like she won. Take your licks and leave.
Claudia Oshry
No, and not, not only that, like they have a baby together. Like at what point? Because it was like when they got married.
Jackie Oshry
At no point.
Claudia Oshry
Right? This will shut everyone up.
Jackie Oshry
Being happier than she's ever been, healthier than she's ever been and moved on.
Claudia Oshry
It's not enough.
Jackie Oshry
Why do her fans want to bring her back to the darkest place in her life? I don't understand.
Claudia Oshry
I don't understand either. It's so crazy. And anybody who participates in this, like Jelena Standom is so such a low cue individual, a low IQ individual and really sick in the head mentally and you need to seek help. I'm not participating.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah, I'm not.
Claudia Oshry
Like you're not going to get me to watch a seven part TikTok series.
Jackie Oshry
I'm just not. I actually now I did see a clip of like Selena like saying some words and then a clip of like Haley saying those words. Like apparently in Selena's cooking show, Selena and chef, like she says okie dokie a lot. Like when things are ready, Okie dokie. And Haley had like a video of her cooking something and as she put in the oven she said okie dokie. And the video plays at Haley saying okie dokie over and over. So it sounds like she said it five times. She said it one time.
Claudia Oshry
Once. Yeah. And it's again. If Selena is of, you know, Mexican descent, if she said something in Spanish and then Haley copied it, maybe I would think that's weird. Saying okie dokie is. Everyone says that that's what everything is. Like a stretch. Like, well, Haley posted a picture of her as a child right after Selena did. I posted one too. Like, these are unoriginal, not unique things.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. Or like Selena was on video on Instagram being like, I don't really come on here and say this. Like, talk a lot. And then that's how Internet.
Claudia Oshry
That's Internet talk.
Jackie Oshry
That's literally Internet talk talk. I'm not like always coming and talking.
Claudia Oshry
I'm really sick for Haley Bieber. Like, I've had enough.
Jackie Oshry
I hope she just turns her phone off or is like, not on.
Claudia Oshry
No.
Jackie Oshry
I think these things don't exist when you're not on. Like, for me, it does not exist. Even though I. I don't know her.
Claudia Oshry
On like a really, really personal level. I do think though, that it bothers her. She's responded to it a couple of times, you know.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah.
Claudia Oshry
Either directly. She went on call her daddy. She took that picture with Selena to like, shut everyone up. Like, she tries. And I do believe at some point, maybe once you become, you become a mom, like, you're gonna stop caring. And maybe that point is now. I hope she doesn't let it bother her, but it's bothersome. Like I think, and I don't blame her.
Jackie Oshry
You care less and less. It's not like you wake up one day and you don't care. But it's like with every day that you grow and year and then being a mother and you literally don't have time to care about such things, one day she will wake up and be like, wow, I've really moved on.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah.
Jackie Oshry
And it doesn't bother me.
Claudia Oshry
I yearn for her for that.
Jackie Oshry
For those days. Better days ahead.
Claudia Oshry
Yes.
Jackie Oshry
Are you ready for our next story?
Claudia Oshry
Yeah.
Jackie Oshry
Some crazy news from the Low family this week. So bachelor alum Sean Lowe shared this week on his Instagram with his wife a really dramatic, crazy story about their family dog attacking him twice now. Body cam footage has been released from the police officers who were called to rescue him the second time the dog attacked him.
Claudia Oshry
So tell me this story from the beginning because he put up a 12 minute video my ass was not watching.
Jackie Oshry
I don't know why he caught me at the right time. I watched the whole thing.
Claudia Oshry
Jackie send it to me and was like transcribing. I'm like, did you watch this whole thing? I can't even get. You watch Tick tock.
Jackie Oshry
I did because I was just like, well then what happened next? And I really didn't know what they were gonna say because they sat down. Catherine and Sean so serious. And Catherine is just choked up and not speaking. And he's just narrating what happened. And he explained how he had his buddies over for a barbecue. Catherine took the kids to the mall. He like indoor outdoor living. They had. He had. The barbecue was smoky. The fire alarm and his house goes off. And they have a new dog for named Moose. For three months, Moose has been a part of the family. Goes with Sean everywhere. Like, Sean's best friend sleeps in the bed with the kids. Like Moose. That's Moose. We love Moose. He's a boxer, he's a rescue. The fire alarm goes off and something in Moose gets triggered. He starts attacking Sean, biting at his feet while Sean's trying to stop the fire. Biting at his feet, attacking his arms. Like clock that he showed this huge car, basically, like blood everywhere. Went to the hospital that night. Like, so dramatic. So crazy. So Sean had. They have little kids. So then once everything was like settled that day, he was like, okay, well, Moose is gonna have to go. They caught a bunch of shelters and they were gonna re home him because he can't stay in the house with the kids. So sad. So the next day the kids were going to stay with like their grandparents just while, you know, everything gets.
Claudia Oshry
Moose gets sore.
Jackie Oshry
And that way Sean could recover because literally, like his arm huge. A million stitches, like crazy. Okay, so they're putting the kids in the car with the grandparents and Moose breaks out of the house and starts attacking Sean again in the driveway. And they called and he like. And apparently it's like a huge dog. Sean manages to like, pin him down. They call the police. He's holding him down for like 10 minutes. So the police arrive and that's the body cam footage that we see here. But also, Sean said all of this is on camera from their various, like, at home cameras. And a lot of it happened outside. So he has cameras. I was just, just watching the whole thing because I. I really thought they were gonna be like. So then we shot moves.
Claudia Oshry
Like, yeah, of course. No, like, at what point. But like, I know I had the same thought.
Jackie Oshry
It felt like they were doing this video to be like, radically transparent because they didn't want, like, rumors getting out there. Because this does happen a lot with influencers. If you get a dog and you're posting the dog all the time, and then the dog is mia it's like, where did you put your dog? Like, Lucy.
Claudia Oshry
No. And people are so quick always to judge the worst and say the worst thing about you that, like, so. So I get why they felt they had to just go into detail.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. And also, like, his arms are both of them now. Because then the next day he got the other.
Claudia Oshry
Really sad for the dog. I'm, like, gonna cry.
Jackie Oshry
I know, so. And obviously. And he was an amazing dog. And, like, something about this fire alarm.
Claudia Oshry
Just, like, set off something, triggered something inside of him.
Jackie Oshry
Then they spoke to the original shelter that they got him from. They're like, oh, yeah, he must have had a rough background like, that we missed, like, thanks, thanks. So they're rehoming him. He was not shot dead on the spot or anything like that.
Claudia Oshry
That's good, that's good.
Jackie Oshry
But I kept feeling like that's where it was going because they were sitting down so serious to tell us.
Claudia Oshry
Right.
Jackie Oshry
Explain something that had happened. The police came and tased the dog, so.
Claudia Oshry
Oh, my God. No, I'm really upset.
Jackie Oshry
It's such an upsetting story. But it's also really, really scary because as Sean and Catherine said, like, the dog was sleeping in the bed with the kids every night. Like, couldn't be more of a worse. Imagine if the fire alarm went off in the. The night and they ate the dogs in bed with the kids.
Claudia Oshry
I'm really upset.
Jackie Oshry
Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to upset you.
Claudia Oshry
No, like, I'm upset.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah, just, like, very. And they're so sad because this is, like, his best friend.
Claudia Oshry
Of course, that's the sad part.
Jackie Oshry
But it's not a question. The dog can stay in the house.
Claudia Oshry
No, of course not. And I don't blame them. And you know what? Like, people are so critical in situations like this. Well, they should have done this.
Jackie Oshry
And, you know, comments were almost.
Claudia Oshry
It's an impossible situation.
Jackie Oshry
The comments were off. I don't even know, like, what haters are saying. Like, you shouldn't have taken on a dog that you couldn't. Like, I don't think that they did anything wrong. I think this is such an unfortunate situation. And all they wanted to do was, like, save a dog and love him, and it's become unsafe. And that's really sad.
Claudia Oshry
No, I literally wanted.
Jackie Oshry
But the dog and Sean said multiple times, like, the dog. If it were anyone else, like, in their family, the dog would have killed him. He's just strong enough to have it been able.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah.
Jackie Oshry
But if it were a kid, if it were Catherine, like, the dog was out for blood.
Claudia Oshry
Oh, my God.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah.
Claudia Oshry
That is so.
Jackie Oshry
Not just, like, a bite. No, run. Like, would not get off of him. Hitting him down like crazy.
Claudia Oshry
Oh, my God. I'm, like, really upset about it. There's so many elements of the story that are so upsetting. Like, of course, what could have happened if the fire alarm went off in the night? But also, like, this is your dog. Like, you love your dog so much, and then you have to, like, give him up. No. It's so upsetting.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. Not knowing, like, where he's gonna go and what's next for him. It's just really sad. But then I started stalking Sean and Catherine because I haven't kept up with them in a while.
Claudia Oshry
Been a while.
Jackie Oshry
It's been a while. They're really doing so great. They're so, like, real and in love. They've been together forever. I watched their season. I remember.
Claudia Oshry
How long have they been together now? Like, 15 years.
Jackie Oshry
Literally, like 10 to 15 years. And they have just such a full life. They're also content creators and businesses.
Claudia Oshry
Where do they live?
Jackie Oshry
I think they live in. In Texas, maybe Dallas.
Claudia Oshry
Okay.
Jackie Oshry
But I might just have made that up. But that feels right.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah, it feels right.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. They're just really a cute family. They actually make really funny content. Like, when you watch a video, you think it's just, like, a cheesy real couple. Real. You know, plenty of people do that, and it always has, like, a comedic twist, and it's pretty funny stuff.
Claudia Oshry
Oh, so you're a Stan.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah, I. I'm proud to stand, like, a healthy, loving relationship. Yeah, I'll do that.
Claudia Oshry
So you're obsessed with them. Okay.
Jackie Oshry
Not enough to follow because I can just admire. Oh, wow.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah, of course.
Jackie Oshry
You know, I feel like I've missed too much to sort of follow now.
Claudia Oshry
It's never too late, Jackie.
Jackie Oshry
Maybe. Maybe if they keep. If they keep getting served to me. Yeah, that's how it goes. I need to, like, see something a couple times before I'm like, I can't live without them now.
Claudia Oshry
If you see something, say something.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. So really sad for the whole family. They were so, like. She couldn't even speak. She was so upset.
Claudia Oshry
No, I'm upset.

Yeah. Really, really sad. Are you ready for our next story?

Oh, oh, I was thinking Jonah from Tonga.
Jackie Oshry
Jorah of the Andals.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah. Who's obsessed with Daenerys and she's like, scram winning.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. Classic. She should have settled down with him, made a nice life.
Claudia Oshry
He was, he was actually a really nice man.
Jackie Oshry
He was a good man.
Claudia Oshry
She had higher like aspirations though. It was, it wasn't enough a life with Jorah.
Jackie Oshry
Any woman would be lucky to have him.
Claudia Oshry
A thousand percent. Not Daenerys though.
Jackie Oshry
Our next story. Speaking of any woman being lucky to have him, Pete Davidson has a new lady love called Elsie Hewitt. They were spotted hot and heavy making out on the beach in Florida. They've recently like gone public and everyone knows that they're together. And she's like a famous former girlfriend of Benny Blanco and Jason Sudeikis.
Claudia Oshry
Right. They're like, she's a Commoner, but she's a commoner who happens to have dated, like, multiple famous men.
Jackie Oshry
Benny Bonko and Jason Sudeikis. Pretty different.
Claudia Oshry
Extremely versatile.
Jackie Oshry
That Pete Davidson balances them out. Like, they're two extremes somewhere in the middle, and then it all makes sense.
Claudia Oshry
What's her name?
Jackie Oshry
Elsie Hewitt.
Claudia Oshry
It feels like you can't put Elsie in a box.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. And I feel like maybe she's really in love with the man. You know, she doesn't go by, look, she doesn't have a type. She'd be great on Love is Blind.
Claudia Oshry
It sounds like she doesn't have a type. Although it sounds like her type might be celebrities. Yeah. Which I so admire and respect.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. And I don't know. Every time Pete Davidson has a girlfriend, like, I am really so naive. I'm like, this is it. Like, I don't see. I really don't.
Claudia Oshry
So funny.
Jackie Oshry
Expect them to break up, especially, like, after a few months so soon, like he always does. Because I'm like, don't you feel stupid yet? Like, you're not gonna do it again. Right.
Claudia Oshry
I have a different, like, experience when I hear Pete Davidson has a girlfriend. I literally don't care. I know with each girlfriend, I have started to care less and less and less. And, like, I think where he lost me completely was chase to. He wonders, like, who I really thought.
Jackie Oshry
That, like, that was gonna be the one. And then before that.
Claudia Oshry
No, that was clearly, like, a dark time for him. Like, he was struggling with. I think, like, his very.
Jackie Oshry
Drove into that house.
Claudia Oshry
Right. So I. When he drove into that house, I said, this isn't the girl for him. Not that it was her fault.
Jackie Oshry
For Madeline Klein, I'm like, well, she's not gonna fit. Fall into this trap, like, and be what number? She's Madeline in this list. So, like, they obviously are so in love. And she's gonna be with him forever. No. Now, the reason why I think this one is forever is because he's really doing a lot of work on himself. He's the best Pete. He's been in a while. He's got the tattoos removed. He is living well.
Claudia Oshry
Well, he doesn't have them removed. I was so confused.
Jackie Oshry
Sorry. No, but, like, look at his arm. His arm. His chest is. I know his arm, but him at.
Claudia Oshry
The beach, the picture of him and his girl. I was like, is this an old photo?
Jackie Oshry
But no, it literally used to be from the neck to the wrists.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah.
Jackie Oshry
There is a lot more blank space.
Claudia Oshry
Now when he did the Reformation shoot and that, like, showcased his new Was he wearing a shirt?
Jackie Oshry
Oh, no. Maybe they also did, like, body makeup.
Claudia Oshry
Right. Because was he totally.
Jackie Oshry
He definitely shirtless, so.
Claudia Oshry
Right. I wasn't the only one who was confused when they saw this photo. Correct.
Jackie Oshry
Oh, I just, like, assumed that maybe I had only seen his arm. His arm is really looking.
Claudia Oshry
Right. Let me look at the reformation thing. No, he was wearing. No, he was wearing nothing on top. And he was bare.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah.
Claudia Oshry
So it was retouched. That's weird.
Jackie Oshry
I guess. But hopefully that. Like, that. Maybe that's what he's gonna be one day.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah, of course. But I thought the photo shoot was, like, to show off his new untatted body and you're telling me it's fake?
Jackie Oshry
Yeah, but people do that. Women wear makeup. Like, I actually. I'm here for it. It's an interesting.
Claudia Oshry
No, but the. The ad with reformation was like a coming out party for his new body.
Jackie Oshry
Maybe that's just how we saw it.
Claudia Oshry
I think this is weird. That tied up in the comments.
Jackie Oshry
If you agree, covered up all his tattoos. Yeah, I. I like it because it showed us, like, what, in the midst.
Claudia Oshry
Of him getting them removed, if they wanted to just cover up his tattoos for any old photo shoot, like, fine. But this was like, we heard he was getting his tattoos removed. We hadn't seen him in a while, and then he has this big reformation shoot to off and it's fake.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. Well, it's really not that easy to do.
Claudia Oshry
No, of course not. But he was gone for a while.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. No, it's a very long process per tattoo.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah. So I really stopped caring about Pete Davidson's dating life after Kim Kardashian. Like, I was into Ariana Grande. I liked the Kate Beckinsale. Kim was obviously, like, a journey of fun and love. I didn't. I stopped caring, like, after that.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. Who. And then who else has it been since then?
Claudia Oshry
He did. I don't know. Since then. He was with Kaia Gerber, but I think she was early on.
Jackie Oshry
No, since Kim. I remember everything up until Kim. And then, like, then it's just become like, seriously a rotating. Like a pattern that's so obvious that I'm like, you're not gonna do it again.
Claudia Oshry
Right? Aren't you embarrassed to be, like, so.
Jackie Oshry
Unoriginal and, like, aren't you worried that, like, girls aren't gonna date you? Because it's just like, men don't worry about three months. But, like, what girl? Like, that's why I always think, like, what girl?
Claudia Oshry
A lot.
Jackie Oshry
Especially, like, all these girls are pargy and successful. And so I'm like, oh, because they're so in love.
Claudia Oshry
First of all, everyone thinks they're gonna be the girl to change the guy.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah.
Claudia Oshry
Like, baseline. And even if they don't, like, why not have fun for three months with this guy who obviously is a huge wiener, you know?
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. No, I think it's more. More than a huge wiener.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah, me too. We must be so much fun.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. I really do think he must be a great person to be around and.
Claudia Oshry
Like, not to be that girl and, like, make everything about me and say I'm not like other girls, but. And obviously, I'm married. But if Pete Davidson wanted to date me. No. I would literally say no.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah.
Claudia Oshry
Like, I don't think he's cute, and all the, like, beautiful women around him haven't changed that for me.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah.
Claudia Oshry
And maybe it's because he's such an unserious dater. Like. Like I was saying, I have started to understand Timothee Chalamet on a looks level a little bit more because there's honestly, something very attractive about a guy who loves one girl.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah.
Claudia Oshry
Do you know what I mean? And, like, being. Being a stable force in a woman's life, to me, that's attractive. Bopping around every three months. Like, to me, that makes you uglier.
Jackie Oshry
I agree.
Claudia Oshry
Sorry. I just kind of crave security. Instability.
Jackie Oshry
I understand. I think you could be the one to change him, though.
Claudia Oshry
I mean, we all know I was.
Jackie Oshry
Are you ready for our fifth and final story?
Claudia Oshry
Yeah.
Jackie Oshry
Like, actually shocking news. Quinta Brunson filed for divorce.
Claudia Oshry
Has a husband.
Jackie Oshry
Had a husband, filed for divorce from him after three years of marriage.
Claudia Oshry
So I'm so curious, like, financially, what this means, because she is, like, not only the star, but, like, the creator, producer, writer of, like, one of the most successful cable TV shows. Like, she's definitely raking it in right now. Better to get out early.
Jackie Oshry
2021. So I'm sure they had a prenup.
Claudia Oshry
You think? Was the show on then?
Jackie Oshry
Yeah, I think so.
Claudia Oshry
Because I remember before that, I don't think she had much to protect.
Jackie Oshry
I think Perina. And who knows what he does. Kevin J. Anik, he didn't look successful.
Claudia Oshry
Do you know what I mean?
Jackie Oshry
But that's, like, sometimes how successful people look.
Claudia Oshry
No, they look a twinkle in their eye. Okay. Abbott elementary started. Oh, December 2021. So I guess when they were engaged, like, she knew that she was getting a show. They didn't know it was going to be so popular.
Jackie Oshry
But fine, they Got married in October 2020 21. Busy time for her. When it rains it.
Claudia Oshry
Oh, wow. Yeah. Wait, what's his name? Let's see if he is successful. Spell Anik A N I K. I would say Anique. Okay, thank you. People magazine. They got engaged in 2020. They've kept the relationship private. Yeah, we know he's very supportive. And they filed for divorce. What a article. Like, thanks.
Jackie Oshry
Thanks. Thanks for what? We already know.
Claudia Oshry
Like, what does he do? Okay, let me. Kevin's husband.
Jackie Oshry
Here we go.
Claudia Oshry
But no, those articles are not helpful, Jay. That's what I just read.
Jackie Oshry
No, it's literally offensive to read that.
Claudia Oshry
They met through a mutual friend. They've attended only a handful of public events together. Jay is known as the most supportive man Queen has ever known. Unemployed.
Jackie Oshry
He's got a lot of time to be supportive.
Claudia Oshry
Let me tell you, if he had like a big success, it would have come up in one of those articles.
Jackie Oshry
So she also indicated on their divorce filing. I guess I just should have read further down that the pair quote, entered into a post nuptial agreement which governs the disposition of their property and requests that each party be responsible for their own attorney's fees.
Claudia Oshry
But. Oh, post nup. That's. Yeah, that's doing the paperwork after you get married.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. Well, she hit it big after they got married. And even though that's like, I don't. That's sounds really awkward. I don't know how you break.
Claudia Oshry
I respect and I.
Jackie Oshry
Marriage.
Claudia Oshry
No, of course.
Jackie Oshry
Good.
Claudia Oshry
I respect her doing that like that. You got to protect your assets when you come into that sort of situation. But it doesn't bode well in the moment for the marriage. Like, oh, I'm having all the success. What should I do first? Protect my money for my husband?
Jackie Oshry
I just want to say, like, this really points towards unemployed because, like, on an. Only an unemployed person like me would sign that.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah, it's so true. But you think he would have worked harder at making the marriage work if he knew, like, what was riding on the marriage. Not only, like, love and happiness, but, you know, the roof over his head.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah, but the thing is, like, when someone's unemployed, like Chris Humphreys during the NBA lockout, like, you just don't want to be.
Claudia Oshry
No. Yeah. And you, like you. They kind of succumb to their unemployment. It becomes. It becomes their whole attitude.
Jackie Oshry
Especially if he's like, channeling his unemployment into support for Akinda. Like, I'm sure she's like, get the away from me and get a job.
Claudia Oshry
Especially if he's a jealous person too. Some people really can be genuinely happy for others. Like, especially if it's their partner that they love. Some people really can't. Yeah, they see it as a reflection of their own failure.
Jackie Oshry
Watch. He's a billionaire.
Claudia Oshry
I know. Like family money. Yeah, they would have said it. Trust me, he ain't. I never heard of a Nick Industries. You know.
Jackie Oshry
I mean global.
Claudia Oshry
Oh, actually it rings a bell. Should we dive into Queenie and Weenie, our final segment of the week? Yeah, we're gonna do Queenie and Weenie of the Week. You guys. A segment we do here every Friday at the end of the episode is a way to just sort of wrap up the week, take a look at the week out of a glance and give out two awards. It's actually four awards because Jackie and I both give out two. So we each are gonna give out a Queenie of the Week and a Weenie of the Week. And it's exactly as it sounds. Did you act like a Queenie this week or did you act like a weenie this week? It's not that serious. It's a seven day title. You can be Queenie one week, we need the next. It's yet to happen to really anyone, but it's possible.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah.
Claudia Oshry
Now I think this has come as a shock to nobody. I'm gonna go first with my Queenie. My Queenie of the week is Sojourner Truth. I'm embarrassed to admit, like, I just started to really get to know her story. Yeah. But you know what? I was meant to come to it in this way on this platform. And she's a Queenie.
Jackie Oshry
So like, we could all be on the journey together of learning about Sojourner Truths.
Claudia Oshry
And honestly, when you, like, call me Co Jers Truth, like, I should only be so lucky to carry the name of such a brave, powerful woman. Honestly.
Jackie Oshry
Such a woman. I agree.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah. What about you?
Jackie Oshry
My Queenie of the week is Gal Gadot.
Claudia Oshry
Yes.
Jackie Oshry
She's a Queenie every week. And she had.
Claudia Oshry
She puts up with so much.
Jackie Oshry
She puts up with so much. And you would never know it because she doesn't let it fade. But I'm sure she's sick and that.
Claudia Oshry
Her literally also having like a brain aneurysm a couple of months ago at a tumor while she gave birth.
Jackie Oshry
Giving birth. Like, she couldn't see or speak or hear.
Claudia Oshry
No. And everybody's just being mean to her like all the time.
Jackie Oshry
Because like the little girl.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah.
Jackie Oshry
Like, she's just such a Queenie at all times. I Don't know how. She's, like, so mature and rises above.
Claudia Oshry
Could never be me.
Jackie Oshry
Weenie. I'm actually gonna say nothing materialized. Like, I have no weenie this weekend.
Claudia Oshry
Don't force it.
Jackie Oshry
I want to know who yours is. Because maybe there's an obvious person that I'm missing. But, like, there wasn't a lot of weenie, like, behavior this week.
Claudia Oshry
So my weenie doesn't have a name, and I didn't.
Jackie Oshry
Because give it to someone who was, like, half weenie. That, like, doesn't deserve to be called a weenie.
Claudia Oshry
I mean, that's big of you, but there can never be. Once again, can never be me. I. I actually had two weenies. Like, I still have to choose from. No, because they're both directly correlated to something that happened to me. Like, they wouldn't be a weenie to you now. I'm not my sister. Okay. You want me to tell you the other one?
Jackie Oshry
Sure.
Claudia Oshry
I had a viral tick tock a couple of days ago, and it was just like, why is everybody always, like, wanting to go for walks? Like, can we stop? No, I don't. Stop asking me. Like, I don't want to go for walks. And the comment sections, like, did not pass the vibe check. They're like, what are you talking about? Walks are amazing. They're free and good for your mental health. Like, shut up. I was making a joke, okay? So I was just like, the comment section was my weenie, but that's not what I chose. That's not what I chose.
Jackie Oshry
Okay?
Claudia Oshry
My weenie, the one that I actually chose. I don't want to. It's. It's. It is a person. I'm not going to say the person's name, and I'm not going to be, like, annoying. Try and figure it out. It doesn't matter. Like, it's not the point. This has happened to me a couple of times in the past when I was very overweight. Like, people who are professional trainers, nutritionists, like, reaching out and offering their services when I never made it clear that I was interested in taking on a trainer. Do you know what I mean?
Jackie Oshry
Okay.
Claudia Oshry
I got a message from, like, an Instagram famous, like, dietitian being, like, would love to work with you privately or publicly, like, whatever you want to help you out. Like, what makes you think I need help? Like, I. Did I. Did I say, do I put out the energy that I'm looking for a dietitian and to offer your services to, like, a pregnant person? Get the. Away from me.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. I mean, Offering your service to a president person, like, get away from me. But I actually think, like, the trainer reaching out to you, like, when you're previously. Like when you're overweight or anything, I think they just.
Claudia Oshry
Oh, I think that's worse.
Jackie Oshry
I think they reach out to everyone.
Claudia Oshry
I think it's worse.
Jackie Oshry
I don't think it had to do with your. I don't think they're saying, like, hey, let's get you and say they want to just work with famous people. It was because you were famous.
Claudia Oshry
Okay, well, you know just what to say. But.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah, no, I think it's like, more about the thing.
Claudia Oshry
The trainer thing. Like, back when I. Jackie, my whole personality when I was overweight was like, I hated working out, I hated eating healthy. Like, why you would offer your services, like, off.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah, well, they maybe just, like, weren't doing enough research.
Claudia Oshry
But that's not the point.
Jackie Oshry
I think that's not the point of my weeding out that message to, like, every famous, like, extremely.
Claudia Oshry
You're getting stuck on the. Not. Not weed. That's not who my weenie is. I was just saying. I was just saying that it used to happen to me. Okay, what about the current situation that I'm talking about?
Jackie Oshry
Is she crazy? Why would you want a dietitian when you're pregnant? Leave me alone.
Claudia Oshry
It wasn't even, like, after.
Jackie Oshry
It was like, it started.
Claudia Oshry
Whatever.
Jackie Oshry
I'm sure it wasn't, like, a generic message and, like, maybe she didn't know you're pregnant. Did you mention your pregnancy?
Claudia Oshry
She didn't mention it, but this is a person who has, like, followed and DM'd me for a really long time because I scrolled up. So, like, you're aware of my comings and goings.
Jackie Oshry
Stupid.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah. So am I being overly sensitive or is that weany, like, behavior that's.
Jackie Oshry
That's stupid, like, behavior. Seriously, does anyone have a dietitian when they're pregnant?
Claudia Oshry
So crazy.
Jackie Oshry
So why.
Claudia Oshry
I think if you have, like, health. If you have gestational diabetes or if you have, like, certain restrictions or you need to.
Jackie Oshry
Okay. Boring. Extreme circumstances, if I may.
Claudia Oshry
And no, I don't think it's a common thing for just people who don't have, like, any sort of restrictions or barring.
Jackie Oshry
Okay, yeah. That's crazy.
Claudia Oshry
Thank you. So that's my reading.
Jackie Oshry
Well, maybe next week she'll be your queenie.
Claudia Oshry
Here's how she could do that. She could Venmo me $10,000 for, like, my time and damages.
Jackie Oshry
Okay. It's like, really? That's how you could buy Queenie, by the way, if you want to know.
Claudia Oshry
Oh, we've never said this, but it does go without saying that Queenie is a purchasable title.
Jackie Oshry
I just want to say, like, if a brand wants, like, sponsor this segment and, like, wants their product to be hailed as Queenie and maybe their competitor is weenie. Oh, that's $10,000. She's saying.
Claudia Oshry
Oh, no, no, no more. And you have to make a donation to the Mark Schoenwater Holocaust Education foundation and then match that in a fee to Jackie and I. Yeah, big. Because we, we are expensive, but we can be bought.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. I'm looking forward to working with our partners. Me too. It's actually, like, reach out if, like, some partners, like, want to get creative for, like, how can we.
Claudia Oshry
Yes, yes.
Jackie Oshry
Queenie and Weenie especially because I had an open slot this week. That's five grand down the tubes.
Claudia Oshry
Why you keep lowering our rate? Five grand for weed?
Jackie Oshry
It actually should be 2500 because we have four slots.
Claudia Oshry
Okay.
Jackie Oshry
Okay.
