Transcript

[A]

Good morning, girlies. It's the Toast.

[B]

It's Jackson Claude and we're your host.

[A]

It's your favorite show, the Fast 5 things you need to know. We'll start your day off swirly. It's the Toast.

[B]

I sound amazing.

[A]

Welcome back to the Toes and happy Monday. Today is a party episode of the Toast, hosted of course by Turdi Lou Freebush and clearly my stalker, Miriam Webster defied stalker for me, your twin.

[B]

We're both wearing Gargy Parchee set merch. We're not even like, launching merch or announcing anything this week. We just both wore it on our own accord. That's how comfy, cozy and par delish it is.

[A]

It was an uncoordinated attack. Attack.

[B]

Attack.

[A]

You're constantly attacking.

[B]

I actually wore this to dinner at Tries last night. So it was like, I know, it looks so cute. And I was like, let's run it back.

[A]

Oh, my God. What did you have for dinner? Officially Passover. We can eat bread again. And boy, did I eat bread again last night.

[B]

I had a hamburger on a bun. A small luxury that I had missed.

[A]

That you had taken for granted.

[B]

And then I didn't have anything else, like incredibly leavened.

[A]

You know, there's. But we've. We've all year for that.

[B]

I have big plans for today. Sourdough.

[A]

We're back. I had pizza, I had pasta, I had chipriani cake.

[B]

Wow.

[A]

Now, my husband was in charge of the ordering because I was just like, so tired, let's say, you know, like, I really wasn't feeling well because I hate when Ben orders food. First of all, for some reason, like whenever we use like an Uber Eats or any sort of delivery service doordash on his phone, like, it doesn't come.

[B]

Oh, that is classic. My husband.

[A]

Do you like. I don't know what it is about his phone or his account. Like, they get the worst everything.

[B]

What does he always either mess it up even if it's not his fault, they just obviously don't respect him because they don't care to get it right.

[A]

No. And I obviously, I'm in really good standing with Uber Eats. I must be one of their top standing as well. 01 customers. I was actually told that the sushi place I order from, I am their top 01 everywhere I would order from.

[B]

Well, because I like, if I like something, I'll do it again and again. I don't like, do variety. So everywhere I order from, I'm the number one customer.

[A]

My app, like, I command respect. You know, I get the best, most highly rated drivers. I get the quickest delivery times, best priority windows. So I just knew my dinner was never coming.

[B]

Same for when we order an Uber. Like if we order an Uber from Zach's phone. Like, worst cars. Worst cars.

[A]

But if it's my account, we get a limousine, we get a driver with a hat. You know, I'm obviously just like a priority customer for these platforms, and my husband is not.

[B]

I don't Uber a ton down here. But last time we Ubered in New York, I like, called an Uber luxury. And there was a car seat in there. Like, he had an extra car seat. Like, this is a driver who's prepared.

[A]

And I was actually with you when your husband tried to order an Uber. And like, seriously, he was standing outside for 25 minutes.

[B]

What do you got, a pedicab?

[A]

Yeah. So obviously we are just like at different levels, but he did a good job. Except for the fact that, like, my husband has a real, real over ordering problem. And it was so apparent last night. Okay, so not only he went, he went a little nuts with like pizza and pasta, which honestly can be forgiven after, you know, a week of no bread. I understand why he got so many extra entrees. Like, there was so much food. It was like an embarrassment of riches. But then he also ordered the Chipriani cake.

[B]

Mm.

[A]

Let me ask you how many slices of the Cipriani cake?

[B]

Which.

[A]

The slice is huge.

[B]

Two for two adults.

[A]

You would get two for two. I can't even finish one slice.

[B]

Weird to just get one what if?

[A]

Right?

[B]

You might be offended by that. You're eating for two. Two is safe.

[A]

Four.

[B]

Cool. Cool.

[A]

He got. And by the way, the pieces of cake are like 25 each. Plus, like all the tips and delivery, 1,000%. I'm like, you ordered four pieces of cake. And I was like, okay. This morning I come into the kitchen, the two pieces of cake that went uneaten, he left them out on the counter. He didn't put them away last night. I'm like, so you ruined.

[B]

Been hanging out with my husband too much. Everything gets ruined because it doesn't go in the fridge before.

[A]

So wasteful.

[B]

It's so crazy. You have to throw that food away in the morning cuz, like, it goes sour.

[A]

Of course.

[B]

I mean, when I cook something and I leave it out to cool, and I'm like, can you just put it once? It's cool, but you put it in the fridge. Like, I'm going to bed.

[A]

I was shocked to see there was a shopping bag. I Was like, oh, good on my husband. He kept the shopping bag. He's turning into me. It's a nice shopping bag. And then I saw two pieces of cake inside. I said, are you. That's $50 right there.

[B]

That's really crazy also to say I.

[A]

Ate plenty last night. And I'm. I'm so back. Me and hummates. Me and the leavened. We are good.

[B]

I went out to dinner on Saturday night. Yeah, I went out. I was out until midnight. Asked me what? Ask me anything. I was out till.

[A]

Okay, you're out until midnight.

[B]

A bunch of people out.

[A]

What was it like?

[B]

It was late, but it was actually nice because we. I went. It was like a dinner party.

[A]

It was late.

[B]

It was late. It was a dinner party. And the reason why we were out so late is because it started pretty late, which I actually appreciate because then I'm here for bedtime, the kids go to sleep, and they don't even realize that I've left. So that's kind of my ideal way to go out. But it does mean getting home at midnight.

[A]

Damn.

[B]

But I did.

[A]

You've seen the other side of the night.

[B]

Like, I know, but I did forsake, like, bread on the table, and I was really hungry, and, like, things were happening slowly, and I was like, this will be like, I could have gone for it, you know, and just throwing caution to the wind. It's the seventh.

[A]

No, it's a test of your faith.

[B]

I was like, this will be the ultimate sacrifice.

[A]

Yep.

[B]

Will I eat this warm bread and butter? And I did.

[A]

Warm bread and butter at a restaurant. It's such a lost art when, like.

[B]

You'Ve been getting drinks and so you've been, like, waiting a while. It took a while to sit. Like, we hadn't even ordered. I'm like, I don't know when I'm going to see next crumb. And I said, no.

[A]

But also, I find sometimes, like, dining to be such a rushed experience. Like, you just get your food and go. And I find that when you have, like, a really premium bread basket, money, I don't even need anything that crazy. I just require the bread to be warm and the butter to be soft. It. It elongates the whole experience. It makes it. You're not, like, in a rush. Like, you're feeding at the zoo. Like, it's so civilized. And this whole thing where you have to, you know, order an. A menu item bread basket. That's like $6. I hate. But if you're giving me, like, the best bread, I've ever fudgeing had. Okay. I was at a restaurant recently. I'm not going to name it.

[B]

Name?

[A]

No, I'm not going to.

[B]

I know, it's too cool. You don't want to be banned. Just in case they get this shit together 1000%.

[A]

It was like a really cool restaurant and it was, you know, we were celebrating. So I said, ben, let's order the bread basket. Even though it was like a menu item, which I hate.

[B]

No, I don't always hate. I don't always hate. I don't like outright hate it. I'm open to it because I'm expecting greatness.

[A]

I'm expecting greatness. Yes. So. And I said, like, I don't want to be rushed out of here. Like, we never leave the house. I haven't gone out to dinner with you in a year. Let's order the bread. What arrived was first of all sourdough. And I just want to say I love sourdough. It's not a bread basket bread. I'm sorry, it's not. Yeah, no, it's not pre sliced. Like, it wasn't little rolls or anything. Just like pre sliced, cut up, doused in oil. This is a bread basket. When I think of a bread basket made to order, I think of like one that's made in like a skillet and it's pull apart kind of like monkey bread, you know, that I love. If you're going to get crazy, charge me sourdough that my sister made three days ago doused in oil.

[B]

I don't even need to douse mine in oil.

[A]

I was so disappointed. And so I feel like it was a real, for me, indicator. The art of the bread basket is completely lost.

[B]

It's a sign of the times.

[A]

That's why I only eat a Cheesecake Factory. It is the best bread. It is warm every single time.

[B]

You know who does a nice bread spread?

[A]

Let me think.

[B]

Scarpetta. Scarpetta. And it's not such a random.

[A]

Why would I know that?

[B]

Like, well, you, you probably wouldn't even like it because some of them, they have like roasted red pepper in the bread.

[A]

Oh, when they start throwing like cut up olives in the bread.

[B]

Stop. Weird and incongruous about me is I don't like olives. I like everything. I like vegetables. You would think I like olives and I don't. So like when there's an olive tapenade.

[A]

But oh my God, the smell of olive toppenade.

[B]

Oh my God. Of the bread basket at Scarpetta. And I'M pretty sure it's, like, bottomless, you know?

[A]

Well, that's also the beauty of. You know who doesn't have a great bread basket?

[B]

Who?

[A]

They could do. They could do a little bit better.

[B]

Who?

[A]

Cipriani.

[B]

Oh, yeah. And they have breadsticks, which are fun.

[A]

Love bread skits. Fun for the whole family. And you know what else is, like, a lost art we've totally left behind? Pads of butter. I happen to really like opening up that little golden ticket. Like, I. I think some people are bothered by the extra labor. They would just prefer, like, soft butter in a dish, which I love, of course. Don't get me wrong. But butter that comes in those, like, gold packets are. Is never bad. Sometimes it's cold and hard. Not ideal.

[B]

But the butter, it's a candle.

[A]

Yeah. It's good quality butter.

[B]

Yeah, it is. It's very. It's diner, though.

[A]

No, it's not.

[B]

It's a wee bit diner.

[A]

Okay. I guess they do serve it at diners. That's so true. I think of it, you know, they always serve it at, like, fancy French restaurants. It's very French. So I think of it, like, a little bit more elevated.

[B]

Very much a Francophile, and I'm constantly eating French food. You are. You. You guys love La Glue.

[A]

You guys. Ben loves Lagolo, and it's, like, really good. It's this French restaurant Ben stumbled upon. He became obsessed with it. And of course, he never, like, took me because he knows I don't eat French food. And he's just always begging me to go, begging me to go. And one time, I was obviously feeling weak and generous. I was like, sure. Like, I must have not been that hungry. I'm like, yeah, we can go to dinner. A. And let me tell you, the chair was so uncomfortable. Like, that's what I remember about certain restaurants. I don't really care about, like, the quality of food. I care more about vibes and ambiance.

[B]

No, La Glu is French, but they've got options. Like, I like eating there, and I'm. I'm not a Francophile.

[A]

I think, if I remember correctly, that the food was good. All I remember was the chair.

[B]

I understand the chair. I am remembering now. It's not the first thing.

[A]

It's the same chair that they have at the Smith, which is why the Smith will never have me as a loyal fan of their restaurants. And I know it's so inconvenient to not be a fan of the Smith. There's, like, so many in the city. It's like elevated American Diner. But, like, it's. It's. It's so brunchy. It's really. It's the perfect restaurant, except for two things. The chairs are just an abomination level.

[B]

The acoustics.

[A]

No, I can get past that, I think. You know what I'm going to say, though. I'm going to give you another chance to guess what's wrong with the Smith.

[B]

The ketchup?

[A]

Yes, the fucking ketchup.

[B]

Don't just go for Heinz. They have to do Sir Kensington.

[A]

They have to be different. Like, I hate that. Like, you can tell when they give you something at a restaurant that the ketchup is like. Heinz is like. It looks like it's had a facelift. Right? There's no cellulite. It's completely smooth. Sir Kensington's, like, organically, and it's chunky and it's cellulite. And I. It ruins all the food at the Smith because they have really good French fries, but I can't dip it in.

[B]

The own packets next time.

[A]

Literally, me with my pads of butter and my packets of ketchup.

[B]

Listen, I bring a stevia in the raw.

[A]

Oh, you do?

[B]

I do. That's the kind of sugar I like. And it's very, you know, it's a particular one, so it's rare.

[A]

Rare to find.

[B]

Well, I'm glad that we made it over the Pesach hump and we can go back to appreciating our bread. I'm actually excited to make sourdough. Like, do I even remember how to make it? I don't know.

[A]

Oh, my. She's taking a few steps back. She needs to watch her own tutorial on Patreon.

[B]

Literally. It's not a tutorial. It's a what not to do. But I actually had a major weekend. Major. You know what I did this weekend?

[A]

Hold on. My brain is. Just give me three seconds. I'll remember.

[B]

In the world of children.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Major news.

[A]

She had a major weekend.

[B]

We potty train this weekend. We kicked off the potty training journey this weekend. But it's like, so what I did. I hadn't really been doing Bahari training previously. Like, I know people, like, kind of do it slowly over the course of months. That's like, not. And I've also heard, like, really just wait until your kids are ready. Like, really wait. Because, like, it'll just become, like, terrible if you do it too soon. And then they start getting, like, anxious about the toilet. So I was just like, I'll just wait until he's super ready. And he felt ready. So we did this class on Saturday that I had heard about. It was like a four hour class where we, like, it was literally like a frat house. Like chug juice drinking games. No, no, it was a little flip cup. Like, because the kids have to drink a. So that they have to pee a lot so that they can learn to pee in their potty. So the class.

[A]

But I can learn.

[B]

The class was actually, like, really good and helpful for me to learn how to potty train because I wouldn't know where to start. Like, so to do a weekend drinking so much, staying home, no more diapers. We're not doing. Like, once you sign up for the class, what are you gonna do with.

[A]

All that money that you were spending?

[B]

You should buy yourself a bag on diapers.

[A]

Yeah, it's true.

[B]

I'm sure it goes towards something else. I just had to buy 15 pairs of undies.

[A]

Underwear. Yeah. And you know, they soil them, like.

[B]

Yeah. You gotta get fresh on these, like.

[A]

Yep.

[B]

So we did the class, which was good. And then we came home and we were applying everything that we learned all weekend. And we're like, really making headway. We're still in, like, the training phase, but as I said, like, no more diapers. Like, it's done whether it's a success or not. But the more you stick with it and like, follow the. The rules from the class, it's. He's taking to it really well. So it's been pretty major.

[A]

Well, fun fact about one Turdy Lou Freebush is she had an extremely difficult time potty training. I think I was like, you know, definitely the last in the family. Like the oldest.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

And that's surprising, really.

[B]

Like, you know, it's usually like, the youngers start to do things sooner because they want to be like their big siblings.

[A]

Yes. And I do have one distinct memory. They give you that fake toilet. Right.

[B]

We had to bring a fake toilet. I never. Thank God I had one that Frida had sent me because I, I didn't. We didn't have one. And it was really part. She had like, the Rolls Royce of fake toilets in the class.

[A]

I remember the fake toilet. Like, and I remember sitting in the garage. That's obviously where I was, like, forced, because, like, they were so done with me. Forced to take my dumps. And I just remember, like, that part of the journey. And I remember really liking that little toilet. But I do feel like that little toilet because then I also remember having, like, a big fear of the real toilet. Especially, like, big ones with, like, like, long, you know, bowls. And I feel like it kind of sets you up to be afraid of the toilet.

[B]

I feel like most kids are afraid of the toilet at a certain point, but it's not, like, during the potty training phase. But we're supposed to stay on the little toilet until we have, like, five consecutive poops in the little toilet. And then he can go back to his toilet that has, you know, the little accessible little ladder, the little accessible chair on top.

[A]

It's so cute.

[B]

Yeah. So it's been fun. I'm, like, excited that we've kicked it off. It's not as, like, big and scary as I thought it was going to be. And we're also doing nighttime training at the same time. They say that's easier to do. It's like, yes, it's very inconvenient and a pain in the butt, but, like, it'll work out better if we do it all together. So that's where we're at.

[A]

I have stumbled onto Tick Tock, a method of potty training where they train you to potty in the toilet from birth. I don't know if you're. Are you familiar with that method?

[B]

No.

[A]

I forget what it was called. And the first time I heard it, I was like, okay, these people are nuts. Like, these people are nuts. The more I learned about the science behind it, I might start adapting that method, like, from day one.

[B]

Well, it's definitely, like, less wasteful, which you'll like. You don't have to buy all the diapers and all the.

[A]

And you know me, anything to cut costs.

[B]

Anything to cut costs and live a minimal lifestyle.

[A]

Yeah. I'm definitely thinking about cloth diapers.

[B]

Cloth diapers aren't as scary as they sound, but not that I use them, but I've, like, seen.

[A]

I don't know, they sound really scary.

[B]

Like, I would just say, when there's a poop, we'll throw that one away.

[A]

Then they're not, like, they're. They're not reusable.

[B]

Then for peas.

[A]

Like, for peas. Yeah.

[B]

What were you. Oh. About putting them in the toilet at birth. I actually saw a chart recently about, like, potty training ages over time. And, like, as a society, like, we're getting.

[A]

We're regressing.

[B]

Yeah. Like, I think the norm used to be, like, one and a half was potty training. Now I know when we were growing.

[A]

Up, it was like, two. It was two when we were kids.

[B]

Was it. Why do you know?

[A]

Yeah, like, it's like something I just happen to know it's always been two.

[B]

Yeah. But then it's like, if you start at two and it doesn't take because they weren't ready, and then they're scared of the toilet, and then they start holding in their poops for days, very bad, very bad to break. And you know what? I don't really mind the diapers so much. Like, every once in a while, it's like, oh, gosh, I wish this one was in the toilet. But, like, diapers are so convenient. I could change them wherever. I don't have to use, like, a public restroom and, like, get in the restroom. I can just change in the trunk of my car.

[A]

Like, well, just know my family will be adapting the newborn method, and I encourage you to. To think about it. Okay.

[B]

I. Like I said I'm happy with the diaper life, but let me know how it goes.

[A]

I will. I definitely will.

[B]

So big things, major moves happening here.

[A]

Such a big weekend for you. So happy that you. You started that journey. I started no journeys this weekend. I just laid around.

[B]

It's not even meant to be like, a journey. Like, it's done. You know what I mean?

[A]

So he's potty trained.

[B]

He's not potty trained, but, like, he doesn't wear diapers anymore.

[A]

Stop. But they grow up so fast, and I do, like, not to be, like, a freak. They look so cute with diapers on because they have, like, dump trucks, literally. And, like, the way they waddle around with, like, this saggy tushy thing. Like, it's. It's such a cute part of their allure.

[B]

Yeah, it is really cute.

[A]

But of course, they're beautiful. With or without?

[B]

With or without. There's beauty in everything.

[A]

I don't know about that, but there's beauty in a lot.

[B]

But it's definitely, like, a major milestone in terms of, like, you know, it's.

[A]

Not a baby parenthood. Yeah, no, that's. That's my movie.

[B]

And now I know how to potty train, which I didn't know how before. I love to do a class for everything. It's like, I haven't started a garden yet because I can't find a class to teach me how to garden.

[A]

[A]

Yeah, I guess you don't really possess the. Like. When I want to learn how to do something, I watch a YouTube video. Like, I taught myself how to knit on YouTube. I feel like you don't like watching YouTube videos. Like, tutorials. You're more hands on. You like to take a class?

Yeah, I do. I like to. I should do more master classes. You would think I would do more.

[B]

The turd.

[A]

I just have to take a picture of what I'm looking at right now. Romeo looks so cute. I've really kind of like, embraced bringing Romeo to work with me because he was so good the other day.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Oh, and I forgot to tell you guys on Friday when I was like, worried about Romeo. He's outside of the studio. What is he doing? Oh, my God. When I left the studio, he was curled up on the couch. He, like, not me thinking the worst of him and him just proving me wrong.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

So now he's welcome anytime. Look at him being so cute over there.

[B]

Yo.

[A]

I've really resigned myself to not missing a moment of his childhood. Especially because, you know, yesterday was Theo's heavenly birthday.

[B]

I saw that was really emo.

[A]

Yeah. I had forgotten. I, like, felt bad. And then I saw in the weirdest way, I remember David Dobrik 4:20 posted like, a picture of him smoking weed. Like, happy 4:20. I'm like, oh, my God. People still celebrate 420. I was like, wait, 4:20 is Theo's birthday?

[B]

Light up.

[A]

So then I texted Ben. I'm like, we're kind of terrible. It's Theo's birthday. And it was good to just remember him, feel proud of how far I've come, honestly, in less than a year, right?

[B]

No. A year?

[A]

No. Oh. Oh, okay. That makes more sense. And I owe a lot of my healing and my joy and my love to Romeo. So it was a good reflective moment. I didn't mean to, you know, attack everyone with my emotions on social media. I apologize.

[B]

Well, you made us emotional, obviously, due to do is forever in our hearts.

[A]

Do to do is forever. We built the show off his back. Like, yeah, he was an amazing dog and an amazing friend of Toast Inc. 1000%. And when we go public one day. Like, our moniker will be T H E O.

[B]

It will be Duke with A Fist.

[A]

Emoji.

[B]

Do strong.

[A]

Do strong.

[B]

Our first story is major news, like, probably the most of the elk of the most major news we could possibly report because Pope Francis has passed away today at the age of 88, right after Easter. Following.

[A]

Right after I saw Conclave.

[B]

Right after you saw Conclave following a health crisis and month long hospitalization. So Pope Francis died today at the age of 88. The Vatican said the Pope died at his residence in the Vatican CASA Santa Marta, R.I.P. like, we're just saying he's the most influential man in the world.

[A]

We're just talking about him. Oh, my God. Are we, like, seriously cursed?

[B]

No, no, I'm just, like. Just to say, like, the most influential person in the world has passed away. That's major news.

[A]

And I guess if I was like a religious Catholic, I would definitely think about the timing. Like, it's really crazy.

[B]

Yeah, it is. It definitely feels connected to the heavens.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

It feels symbolic.

[A]

Now, now that I know, like, what goes down in the immediate aftermath of a pope passing away. I just know there's a lot going on at the Vatican and people are just flying in. All these arch Bishops. Bishops. No. What's the one with the C. Cardinals? All these cardinals. Yes. I don't know if they're gonna elect a hermaphrodite. I feel like they're not, but it's always a possibility.

[B]

It's a possibility and it is, but.

[A]

I know that there is within the church, I guess, like, this was the whole point of conclave, this real push and pull, this tug between people wanting to keep the old traditions and those wanting to, you know, progress a little bit. I think Pope Francis was more progressive. I'm not entirely sure, really. Don't quote me on that.

[B]

Yeah, no, he's known for being more progressive. That's part of his legacy.

[A]

And so rest in peace.

[B]

Rest in peace. But it'll be very interesting to see what happens next. But our hearts are with everyone who is mourning this iconic year.

[A]

I wish I knew the players. Like, you know, I wish I knew.

[B]

Who was, like, up for next step. Who's been waiting their whole life or, like.

[A]

Yeah, there's probably like three or four.

[B]

Like, clearly over a number of times. Right.

[A]

Who's, like, last opportunity is it, you know, you only get, I think as like a lifelong cardinal, I think you attend maybe one or two conclaves. Like, it's not.

[B]

Well, that's every year. It's not supposed to happen so often, but I feel like we've been through a couple Popes in our lifetime.

[A]

I feel like we've been through three.

[B]

There was one that was like Pope for a day. Do you remember that one? He was, he like was. He was. He didn't die.

[A]

Oh, oh, they kicked him out.

[B]

I don't know if they kicked him out or he left. He like wasn't working out. This is just about.

[A]

Oh, I feel like that's like not something you can do that.

[B]

I'll just be quicker.

[A]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[B]

I know it's a job for life. So maybe.

[A]

Was there a recent Pope who stepped down or resigned? Question mark. Searching the web yes, there has been a recent instance of a Pope residing in 2013. Benedict XVI said a deteriorating health and age related limitations as reasons for his departure. It was a significant event as he was the first Pope to resign in nearly 600 years. Following his resignation, he adopted the title Pope Emeritus and lived in a monastery within Vatican City until his death in 2022. All right, so he lived for 11 more years or. No, 2013. Nine more years. Couldn't have been that bad.

[B]

Yeah, no, I don't think it was health. I think it was difference of opinions.

[A]

And by the way, that was the most previous one after Pope Francis. So then. Yeah, after his resignation. It's crazy. They. You have like a fake Pope name. I knew that. Not fake. Excuse me, I'm sorry.

[B]

The King of England sometimes.

[A]

Is that another name?

[B]

Well, for Charles, it's his name. But before that, like Edward was David.

[A]

Got it.

[B]

Like it's not always.

[A]

So if anyone was interested in Pope Francis's real name, I want to say Jorge.

[B]

J O R G. Oh yeah, it's right here.

[A]

Jorge. Jorge Mario Rio.

[B]

Mario.

[A]

Did I say Mario?

[B]

Me too.

[A]

Oh, sorry. So disrespectful. Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergaglia of Argentina was a successor taking the name Pope Francis. What would your Pope name be? No, I'm kidding. This is like seriously disrespectful.

[B]

No, I'm really not making jokes jokes here. Except for Maria, which was an accident. Like I.

[A]

No, I'm not making jokes either.

[B]

I don't know if you guys have noticed, I haven't made a joke yet.

[A]

I'm not making any jokes. I just, I'm really looking forward to like when they select the new Pope because I am gonna say they've elected a new pop. Who knows what movie that's from.

[B]

Euro Trip.

[A]

Yes. I almost said Eurovision. Yes.

[B]

Yeah, that's definitely Obviously in the works, in the midst of the grief for the Catholic community and communities around the world.

[A]

But they are sort of popeless right now.

[B]

Yeah. Will there be an interim pope?

[A]

Right. Like, that's the thing with the royals. When the person passes, there is, like, not a minute that they're without a leader. Right. So I don't know. And that was a problem in the movie. They were taking a really long time and left the. The peeps without a leader.

[B]

Yeah. I wonder. I wonder what the elk of the next pope will be like. Maybe it will be someone a little younger. Will they be more progressive, more modern, more traditional?

[A]

And this was in the film, too. What about a black pope? I don't think there's ever been one. Yeah. And they represent, like, we think of. I think of the Pope as like, you know, Roman, Italian, Rome, you know, it's kind of. It's the world. They represent a large, large group of people.

[B]

So France, I guess, Argentinian.

[A]

They should live stream the conclave.

[B]

I don't know. I feel like. No, I feel like there has to be, like, things that they want to say that they wouldn't say in front of the world.

[A]

No. You. Yeah. You have to be able to speak freely in a conclave. Yeah.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Based on what I know from the.

[B]

Film, of course, I didn't see the film, but I just imagine, like, there are things for the private, you know, and this is like a very significant thing. Like, you wouldn't want it to be watered down by outside views.

[A]

And I wonder if you are like a. A devout Catholic. Like, do you have someone you're rooting for? Or like, are all these people are sort of unknown to you?

[B]

I don't know. I wonder if you have. Yeah. A fave cardinal, maybe. Like a cardinal.

[A]

Has there ever been an American pope? Like, they represent all different countries. Has there ever been an American pope? Because I feel like. No. No.

[B]

Any further?

[A]

Popes have been of non American origin, most coming within Europe, particularly Italy. But in the film, they. They bring in everyone from every country.

[B]

And Pope Francis, Argentinian. Where was Benedict from?

[A]

The current structure and history of the papacy has traditionally favored European candidates, though Pope Francis was the first pope from the Americas. South America.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Interesting. Oh, oh, oh. There are American cardinals who have been considered papa bile, which is potential popes. Did you know that word?

[B]

No, I love it.

[A]

Like Timothy Dolan of New York. I'd have heard of him. He's like, at every event.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

He's in. He's in blue bloods.

[B]

Cardinal Dolan Everybody knows him.

[A]

And Cardinal Raymond Burke. Do you know him?

[B]

Cardinal Burke? No.

[A]

No, I'm not familiar, but none have been elected thus far.

[B]

I'm rooting for Cardinal Dolan.

[A]

I'm rooting for Tom Selleck.

[B]

I'm rooting for.

[A]

I don't know any cardinals, personally or otherwise. Oh, yeah, I'm rooting for Cardinal by Casey Musgraves.

[B]

Well, it's a big. Well, it's. It's sad time. Somber, for sure. But on the bright side, it's very exciting. You know, change is very exciting to me.

[A]

It is. And this is part of the papacy. The papacy.

[B]

This is really, like, a major part of history, so I. It's always exciting to live through a moment in history that will be significant hundreds of years down the line.

[A]

Do you know anyone who's met a Pope?

[B]

I don't know.

[A]

I have.

[B]

Who?

[A]

Pete Alonzo.

[B]

Oh, cool.

[A]

Yeah. And I actually, like, asked him about it. It's like, one of his proudest moments. And, like, if you're Catholic, it's the biggest deal. Yeah. Yes. I know someone who had some meta Pope, not to be big, like.

[B]

So you pretty much have met a Pope is what you're saying.

[A]

I didn't say that.

[B]

So, like, you are a Papa vile.

[A]

I'm a papa file.

[B]

You're in line for the papacy.

[A]

1000. The papacy. Hand on the throttle. I made that joke before. Did you get it?

[B]

The. The.

[A]

Oh, you never listen. You never listen to the second half of ttbd.

[B]

Well, I once did on an airplane. I fell asleep. But the prophecy.

[A]

The prophecy. The papacy.

[B]

That's beautiful.

[A]

Yeah. I really hope we haven't offended anyone.

[B]

Like, I'm saying all this with, like, so much love and respect. So if, of course, was taken, like, it was not meant.

[A]

It was not meant.

[B]

And I hope you can forgive me. Like, I forgave Haley.

[A]

Joe was 1,000%. We're gonna keep that in our back pocket for a while.

[B]

1000%. After the show on Friday, I watched the video. Oh, my God, I was cracking up.

[A]

Oh. Of Haley Joel.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

I actually, I. You watched it on FaceTime. So I heard the audio of it because we were on FaceTime together, and I don't think he meant it in a hateful way. Like, he definitely hated the police officer in that mom. But just because he was arresting him, not because he was a Jew.

[B]

Right. And I don't think the police officer was a Jew. I agree with you. Like, where did that word come from? It's obviously, like, in your vernacular, so that's a cause for concern.

[A]

It also when because we posted that clip on social media, I was really shocked to find a lot of people don't even know what the K word is, which made me feel good.

[B]

Like, that way.

[A]

Let's keep it that way, y'all.

[B]

Let's keep it that way.

[A]

Oh, I was trying to remember. We've been saying y'all a lot, like, personally, and I'm sure we're gonna start saying it on the show. And if you guys are wondering what it's from, I'd be happy to tell you. I got sent a video, like, six months ago that I have probably watched every single day since I received it, and it was my beautiful sister. Maybe I was having a bad day, like you were trying to make me feel better. It was my beautiful sister taking a picture of her son. Excuse me. A video of her son. And he said, code juice. You are beautiful. Coaches, you are beautiful. Wait for it. Coaches, you are beautiful. Yeah. And the yah hit in such a special way. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[B]

That is where the yaw is from. I knew it was from a Harry video, but I forgot which one.

[A]

No, it's from my favorite one, the coachers.

[B]

You are beautiful video.

[A]

Because he starts off really shy, like, his hands behind his back. Coaches, you are beautiful. And then he feels emboldened by my beauty.

[B]

Mommy emboldened him.

[A]

Yeah, you are beautifully. Yeah. Like, he had to really sort of reaffirm my beauty. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[B]

So rest in peace, Pope Francis. Rest in peace.

[A]

Yeah. Rest in power.

[B]

That too. That, too.

[A]

Move on. Let's move on. Like, I feel like we did a good job. Like, I.

[B]

Okay, the next story is one of the craziest headlines I've ever read and one of the craziest photos I've ever seen because Elizabeth Hurley and Billy Ray Cyrus are spoken, sparking romance rumors with a kissing photo on Easter. So, yeah, like Elizabeth Hurley. Yes. You heard that?

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Elizabeth Hurley, like, British bombshell.

[A]

She's from Gossip Girl. I know her originally from her amazing work in the movie with Brandon Fraser.

[B]

Bedazzled. Bedazzled from the royals on E. That was canceled before it's time. She's like a legendary. I mean, it's the Elizabeth Hurley that you're thinking of.

[A]

So I just want to.

[B]

Yeah, it's Elizabeth.

[A]

That's the one.

[B]

There's only one is kissing Billy Ray Cyrus and posting it to, like, her own Instagram in a proud on like a farm and he has longer hair than her and is wearing a headband. With bunny ears. And he's carrying a staff, a stick. They're against, like, a wooden farm fence.

[A]

Yeah. They're clearly at a farm.

[B]

If I saw this picture before the inauguration, I might have been like, oh, interesting. And kind of cute. Like, random people together. Even though he did call age appropriate, you know, like, don't forget Miley, that devil skank. Like, obviously, that devil skank.

[A]

Molly.

[B]

He's got a temper. And I do not stand with Billy. Right. Even before the inauguration, Like, I was just like. Like, the whole.

[A]

I thought he was. Even before the. Before the inauguration, I thought he was, like, a. Like, a Up person.

[B]

Yeah. Like, after the inauguration, like, probably, you know, he's from his whole family, who are, like, a bunch of, like, really, like, strong, insightful, smart women. Like, I just feel like he's the problem for toxic. Toxic problem.

[A]

But after the inauguration, like, I officially think there's something wrong with him.

[B]

Yeah. So, like, bi. I might have celebrated this. Maybe Elizabeth could change him. Like, maybe she's the one for him. I love when people from different worlds come together.

[A]

AI.

[B]

AI.

[A]

What? Run, Hurley. Run, Hurley. Run, Hurley. Run. Like, seriously, this is. Does not bode well.

[B]

No, but, AI, my opinion of Billy Rice Cyrus is so low that now I think poorly of Elizabeth Hurley. How about that?

[A]

You say she's guilty by association.

[B]

I mean, you are, but, like, obviously nuts.

[A]

Yeah. And if you're celebrating Easter with someone, like, you've obviously spent a lot of.

[B]

Time with them, you are posting a picture of the two of you kissing on Instagram. Like, that's your man.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

In fact, you want to tell everyone. And then her son commented on the picture with, like, a heart emoji. Essence. The essence of heart emotions.

[A]

Yeah. They're wearing, like, matching flannels.

[B]

She's looking like a cowgirl. Like, she's embraced the Southern lifestyle.

[A]

Kelly, Ben Simone left a comment.

[B]

I think she lives in the countryside in England, but it's just.

[A]

This is totally Crowley Corners.

[B]

Totally.

[A]

The comments are so funny. She's, like, liking a lot of comments.

[B]

I'm in shock.

[A]

This is a really strange pairing for a multitude of reasons, but mostly because, like, Billy Ray is deeply unwell. His sons are worried about him. They're making videos, like, trying to reach out to him.

[B]

Meanwhile, earlier this month, she posted a video of herself frolicking on a beach in the Maldives, and it was a reel set to Billy Ray's song. She's not crying anymore.

[A]

No, they're like. They're. When you spend a holiday with someone.

[B]

Like, you're together in that I, if we had reported that, like, if I had heard about that, I would have never, I would have been like, you guys get a gray.

[A]

It could mean it could be anything.

[B]

Yeah. So they were obviously in the Maldives together.

[A]

I just feel like she's Elizabeth Hurley, you know, she could do better.

[B]

Of course.

[A]

Of course.

[B]

That's what makes this so jarring.

[A]

Yeah. And I would have thought she was somebody with like a, like a really strong head on her shoulders, you know.

[B]

I mean her history of relationships, like she dated famously Hugh Grant. She dated a businessman and a producer and you know, top quality fabric.

[A]

Yes, top quality fabric.

[B]

And now the fabric.

[A]

This is cut from polyester. Okay, Dolores.

[B]

Yeah. Well, that's where. Top quality. That's the antithesis of top.

[A]

I may be cut from a different cloth, but it's top quality fabric. You're gonna like it. Best. Best tagline.

[B]

Tagline ever. Ever.

[A]

1000% ever. She referenced a storyline. She made it her own. We adapted it into everyday vernacular. Best tagline ever.

[B]

Period.

[A]

Period.

[B]

So we'll keep you posted on these two. I actually feel like very invested in their relationship and I'm going to be keeping a close eye though. Do not mistake it for me.

[A]

Rooting for that shipping. Right.

[B]

You know.

[A]

Yeah, we're just monitoring.

[B]

We're monitoring.

[A]

We're up here on the observation deck.

[B]

Because I'm in shock, truly. Are you ready for our next story three? Yes. Some happy couple news. Kristen Stewart is a married woman. She married her fiance Dylan Meyer in an intimate ceremony at her LA home. Well, their LA home.

[A]

I mean, obviously I'm happy for Kristen Stewart, but like, part of me, you know. You wish you were wrong. When I think of Kristen Stewart getting married, I think of breaking down part one, you know, And I know that this wedding was probably nothing like that. Robert Pattinson wasn't even invited, let alone the groom.

[B]

An at home wedding, actually.

[A]

That's so true. Do you think like the, the entire wedding industry was like put like shifted, right? Like when that wedding came out. I think to this day people still reference like flowers or the dress. It's like it is. I mean, of course, a thousand years like it is the. Oh, did you see that? She's turning. I actually saw this in the back of a taxi tv they had like a little news segment. Christina Perry turned a thousand years into a children's novel.

[B]

Oh no, I didn't know a children's novel. But you know that she has an album of, of nurseries, lullabies where she's. Yeah, Put songs like A thousand years and yes, you are my sunshine. She does. And it's Pargie.

[A]

Yes. Okay. So sorry. I. I just remember that I to that so. Oh yeah. So the wedding industry has completely been influenced by this one particular wedding. Even a decade later, just style wise, a million different things. Do you think even one iota of Kristen Stewart's real life wedding this weekend.

[B]

Like had, you know, even pictures from tmz? Not great pictures, but a couple. And at first glance, were the guests.

[A]

Sitting on cut down tree stumps just.

[B]

Pictures of the two of them? At first glance? No. They're not even wearing wedding dresses nor suits. Like the. However, I do see a twinkle light.

[A]

Okay. At the ceremony. Yes. The reception. Excuse me. At the, at the reception there was a couple of fairy lights because then, you know, she has a very inappropriate dance with Jacob under the twinkly lights. You know what I feel like she could have done from. In her wedding that she definitely maybe took from Twilight because, you know, Kristen Stewart were converse under her wedding dress.

[B]

Here she is wearing like a combat boot.

[A]

Okay. Bella wore like tie up, lace up Converse and I can see Kristen Stewart doing that too.

[B]

No, Claudia, like, she hates Bella.

[A]

I know, I know, I know.

[B]

If anything that she were doing was even remotely reminiscent of Twilight, she would change it just for.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

The sake of it. To not reference to reference or not reference.

[A]

Yeah. Do you think Robert Pattinson hates Twilight? I don't, no. I don't think he wants to like lean in and be going to Comic Con and stuff. But I don't think he like looks back on it and hates it. I think she does. When the only time she's really ever spoken about it in depth was on that Howard Stern interview, which I've watched a thousand times. And she does speak really lovely about Rob and their relationship, but overall, like the film was not like enough for her.

[B]

She talks also about it a little bit on not skinny but not fat. And that was like more recently. And they were just like having fun. You know, where you've been loca. Like some of the lines that she had to read.

[A]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[B]

It was just funny. So it's fun. Just hear her talk about it. Even if she wants to laugh at it, fine. Like it's fun to hear her talk about it. I would feel more upset about Kristen and Rob, but like now Rob is with Suki and they bring me a lot of joy.

[A]

Oh, they do bring lots of joy.

[B]

So I feel joyful.

[A]

Yeah, that's true. Where. Where Twilight giveth Twilight Also taketh away. And it's just when I. When I picture Kristen Stewart getting married, like, she's at the Cullen house.

[B]

She's certainly not. And she's certainly not marrying Rob.

[A]

If I could get married all over again, like, I would fly everyone to that house. I think it's in Seattle.

[B]

You would get married in Seattle? That's so you.

[A]

I would get married at that house. Yeah.

[B]

1,000% Canada.

[A]

No, no, it's in Seattle. It's. It's owned by one of the, like, big head creative directors for Nike. And I think Nike's headquartered in Seattle.

[B]

So where is the Twilight house?

[A]

They're gonna give you Charlie's house. In for Oregon.

[B]

Portland. Oregon.

[A]

Okay, Same thing.

[B]

Oregon.

[A]

Did I. Did I not say that?

[B]

You said Seattle. Correct. Like, which is.

[A]

Which is the same.

[B]

Pnw. How about that?

[A]

And to. Actually, it does change things because I might get married in Seattle for the Twilight house. I would not get married in Portland. And I mean that with full offense.

[B]

To Portland, like, to everyone who lives.

[A]

I would never.

[B]

They're that different to you?

[A]

Oh, yeah. And like, when people say, like, I get asked all the time, like, where'd you get married? I don't think I could say Portland. Like, I couldn't. I wouldn't be able to answer the question.

[B]

I understand.

[A]

And I know we have, like, three listeners in Portland. And I'm sorry that I offended you. And I'm sorry even more so that you live there. Like, I really am. Yeah.

[B]

But, you know, they might.

[A]

I have been.

[B]

And maybe they live there and, like, they don't like it either, but their family's there.

[A]

It just is what it is.

[B]

And it is what it is. But they're not gonna, like, start sticking up for Portland.

[A]

No. I can say one positive thing about Portland. The first time I went, there's a mall there and they have no sales tax. And I bought a pair of Gucci loafers that I still have to this day that I absolutely love, and I got them for real, cheap. And then the second time I went, the mall was closed down because the.

[B]

Because of crime. Right?

[A]

Because of crime. Like, yeah, they just couldn't handle having.

[B]

A nice mall, so they had to shut down the mall.

[A]

Shut down the mall.

[B]

Classic. Yeah, that makes sense.

[A]

So I guess I won't be getting married at the Nike guys Twilight house.

[B]

Also because you're already married.

[A]

Yes. Technically.

[B]

Semantics.

[A]

I'd figure that out.

[B]

Summer is right around the corner and it's time, you know, to get your wardrobe ready with Roback throughout your crusty, dusty workout clothes. Revamp your closet. Roback's active dresses and shorts are the most comfortable things ever. So active dresses are just where it's at. I feel like all the swirlies are wearing active dresses looking so cute, like dressing them up, dressing them down. But wearing an active dress is fun until you have to go to the bathroom and then you're completely nude in a public bathroom and it's just not the vibe. And I really like the ones from Roback1 because they're really cute, very flattering, like really cute designs. But they have built in shorts that you can pull down without having to take your entire dress off. So if you're going to the bathroom and these days I'm coming every 30 minutes, I'm not going to be naked, shivering with my boobs out on a public turlet. I'm just pulling my shorts down. They also, speaking of shorts, have great training shorts shorts. If you're looking to like actually be active this summer and like do something physical, highly recommend shopping their workout wear especially, especially their shorts. They hit the, the just, they hit at just the right mid rise spot. They come in so many different colors and can't sleep on their like loungewear. I the reason Jackie and I fell in love with Roback is their crew neck joggers, hoodies, sets. I love a set. I mean we're both wearing a set today. It's just so easy to look put together with putting in zero effort. And I like a set for a man, although sometimes I feel like they look really slobbish. And the Roback ones are like really tailored nicely. They come in great colors. Do not sleep on them, especially the men's stuff. Use our code Toast at Roback for a generous 20% off your first order through the end of this week. That's Rho B A C K dot com.

Thank you. Turd back.

[A]

You're welcome.

[B]

Next up, Aaron Rodgers is giving a rare insight on his serious relationship with a mystery woman.

[A]

Oh, I didn't even know he had a girlfriend.

[B]

Yep, he's in a new relationship. He chatted to his pal Pat McAfee. Classic.

[A]

He's always talking about.

[B]

Yeah, so he's talking about a lot of stuff. Future of his career, what he's up to. He said, I'll set it all straight from the jump. I'm in a different phase of my life. I'm 40.

[A]

Wait, has it been confirmed he's off the Jets?

[B]

He's off the jets but not confirmed if he's retiring from the NFL.

[A]

Okay.

[B]

He said, I'm 41 years old and I'm in a serious relationship. I have off field stuff going on that requires my attention. He explained he has a lot of things that have been taking up his time since the beginning of the year. I have personal commitments I've made not knowing what my future would look like after next year, I have a couple of people in my inner circle who are battling difficult stuff. That's where I've been focusing most of my attention on. To make a commitment to a team is a big thing. He claimed that he generally lives a quiet life and wouldn't know the rumors about his future in the NFL if his family didn't keep him informed. He's a free agent.

[A]

Family.

[B]

Like, he doesn't.

[A]

Family.

[B]

What do you mean, family?

[A]

Like, I thought he doesn't talk to his family.

[B]

So true.

[A]

What family?

[B]

Who's your luck?

[A]

Like, no, they literally hate him.

[B]

Uncles and cousins.

[A]

Maybe there's a rogue cousin who keeps him abreast about what Twitter is saying.

[B]

Yeah, because he's a free agent. Fans are waiting to see if he'll sign with another team or retire. He hasn't decided yet. He's not really listening to the noise. And meanwhile, he mentioned his new girlfriend. He mentioned her in December on Pat McAfee. And Pat had joked that Rogers was in love and he did not disagree. And he said, it's a good feeling, boys.

[A]

Now I feel like he's laying the groundwork to retire. Just being like. Because I don't see him. And again, I know so much but so little about football. I don't see him as like a desirable candidate. Right. He's 41. That's really old in football years. He has a huge legacy. But the last two years he was brought to like, revive a team. He got injured on day one and then the second season, like, he stunk it up. So he. I, I don't know why anyone would want to sign him. Like, for real.

[B]

I think people would want to sign him. He's. I think he's a really. Compared to, you know, a rookie or like, really new players. Like, he has a lot, but a rookie has potential. I know, but like, even if it's a two year deal or whatever, I don't think he wants to retire. I certainly don't think he wants to retire like this. Like, oh, I got busy, gotta go.

[A]

No, same. I don't think he wants to retire. I don't think he's getting the offers that he thought that he might. And like, going on Pat McAfee saying, oh, I have a cousin who's sick. Like, it's laying the groundwork for, if he does retire. Being like, I had a lot going on in my life, like, everybody wanted me.

[B]

Like, I think he wouldn't go out, like, with a whimper like that, you know, and just like make an Excuse.

[A]

Sometimes you don't have a choice. No, no.

[B]

But like it would just be like, I am retiring. I've had a great career. Not like it's got busy. Sorry. Like I, I. So I think he's not going to retire. I think there are a lot of teams, especially like crappier teams and especially teams that don't sell as many tickets as like the big blockbuster teams who not only could use a player that has his potential for talent, but he's a big name. And I don't even think it's about the money at this point. So I think there, there are definitely teams that would sign him. It might actually respectfully disagree. It might be. I don't know who's the worst team.

[A]

I know it's the Cleveland Browns.

[B]

That's what I was thinking. But I didn't know if that was because of draft day, which by the way, draft day is this week.

[A]

It is.

[B]

It's on Thursday.

[A]

Oh, I gotta get to know the players a little bit. I need to end up on draft day. Tick tock. Draft day. Draft day. Draft day.

[B]

In the draft of football, I'm.

[A]

I wonder who's getting drafted this year.

[B]

Who are the top picks.

[A]

I love the NFL draft. I need my phone to start serving me content so I can like know stuff. I loved the movie Draft Day with Kevin Costner.

[B]

I would love to see the real life version on my tick tock.

[A]

I would love to see the real life version on my tick tock. So just all that to say, I guess we'll see how it shakes out. I actually disagree with you. I think Aaron Rodgers is like not a desirable player.

[B]

You didn't watch Enigma.

[A]

I, I did not watch Enigma. You are correct about that.

[B]

Nobody's working harder than Aaron Rodgers. Yeah, he had a bad.

[A]

Sometimes it's not about hard work.

[B]

Like, like the first season. The first season got injured. Like that just, that's part of the game. Like you can't be mad at someone for getting injured. Even though I would be and I would be mad at them.

[A]

No, but I do think it's an indicator of your age. Like you're, you get injured more easily.

[B]

You think? Even though, like I'm gonna ask.

[A]

Watch this chat. ChatGPT.

[B]

Is our third co host. Literally.

[A]

Okay, hold on. Would you consider Aaron Rodgers a desirable.

[B]

Draft pick?

[A]

Draft pick. He's not getting drafted.

[B]

A desirable. An employee.

[A]

Player.

[B]

Player.

[A]

Player. Right now, question mark. Who do we know who like knows really everything about football?

[B]

You know what? My husband.

[A]

That depends. That depends. But generally Speaking as of now, he's still a big name, but he's 41 and coming off a major Achilles injury from the 2023 season. His comeback with the jets was underwhelming, and that's certainly not about how much. And there's uncertainty about how much longer he'll play. Teams likely see him as a short term fix at best, not a long term investment.

[B]

Or, by the way, fucking Jeopardy. Duh.

[A]

So overall, he's desirable for certain short term needs, but he is not a top tier quarterback.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

Want to dive into this from a specific angle? No, thanks.

[B]

Thank you, Captain Obvious. That was not helpful. Yeah, seriously, we need the human.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

All those things are. They just stated facts. It's giving.

[A]

That is what AI like, is.

[B]

They. They.

[A]

They should be able to predict a little bit better.

[B]

They should be able to present information in a more predictable capacity.

[A]

Okay, so that was a flop.

[B]

So I guess we'll just have to. You say one thing, I say another, and time will tell.

[A]

Right? Is Olivia Rodrigo a one hit wonder?

[B]

That's also not what I said.

[A]

Not what she said. It's true. That is like an age old, like, joke from.

[B]

Everyone thought that I said Olivia Rodrigo is. It was a one hit wonder. That's not what I.

[A]

This was, by the way, you guys. This was years ago after driver's license.

[B]

Yeah. And the second came out and it was doing really well. What was the second song?

[A]

Deja Vu.

[B]

Okay. Deja vu. And you're like, so she's not a one hit wonder. And I said, it's too soon to call it. That's what I said.

[A]

Yeah, that is what she said. And now you know how I feel. Like it's famous toast lore that people remember incorrectly. Rascal.

[B]

Yeah. So I never said that about Livia Rodrigo.

[A]

She didn't say that.

[B]

Okay. And so maybe we should put some money on this. Actually, let's put money on it.

[A]

Okay. You're.

[B]

You're betting that he's not playing next season? I'm betting that he is, yeah.

[A]

I'm gonna bet that he's not.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

Hundred dollars to the Mark Schoenmutter Holocaust Education Foundation.

[B]

I love that someone reminds me.

[A]

A thousand. A thousand.

[B]

Like, come on, Aaron, you better get on the field. Sure.

[A]

Aaron. Take the L. Go home.

[B]

Okay. Someone remind us of this, like, whenever.

[A]

Because we'll forget when it happens. Yeah.

[B]

Okay. It's for a good cause. I'm in, coach.

[A]

Yeah. And let this be a reminder. You too. You don't even need to wait for Aaron Rodgers. Decision. You can make a donation to the Mark Schoenwetter Holocaust Education foundation, mshef.org a great cause.

[B]

Okay, Aaron. Do it for the children.

[A]

Aaron. I'm older.

[B]

Are you ready for a fifth and final story?

[A]

I am.

[B]

Sutton Strack is giving Garcelle the space she needs after their suspected friendship fallout.

[A]

Yeah, I think that's best.

[B]

Sutton is giving Garcelle space after her former co star unfollowed the entire cast on social media, including Sutton, as we discussed last week. But now Sutton gave gave a statement to Page Six saying Garcelle has chosen to unfollow all of the housewives. I can only imagine that she needs a clean break right now. I love her and I'm giving her the space she needs. She notes that Garcelle, whom she is close friends with, is still following her business accounts. The Sutton concept and Sutton brands. She probably just forgot about those, honestly.

[A]

Oh, they are so forgettable.

[B]

Like, she forgot to unfollow them and that. Thanks. Of course. Thanks for reminding her.

[A]

Even though when she searched Sutton in her following, it should have.

[B]

That's true. You're right.

[A]

Okay.

[B]

She said, I know that she's going to move through this next chapter with grace and success.

[A]

So let me say this because I've actually been thinking a lot about Garcelle. She was my weenie of the week on Friday, and I completely stand by that. Although I think that the one thing she's absolutely justified in being mad about is her anger towards Sutton. Right? Her and Sutton on this island together. In this whole season, I've been seeing like people now clipping things on social media of, like, things Sutton did. It was very clear all season, like, Sutton was really had this attachment specifically to Kyle, because I think it's like her real connection to the group in such a losery, pathetic type of way. Whereas, like, Garcello is, like, standing there, open arms, like a real friend, and she's just really ignoring Garcelle the entire time. So Garcelle's gripe with Sutton is completely legitimate.

[B]

I want to say that, yeah, I feel like Sutton thinks Garcelle's mad at everyone, but she's mad at Sutton the least because, you know, but she has to, like, just, like, have a clean bake from the group and Sutton's part of the group and then she'll come back.

[A]

She's mad at Sutton the most.

[B]

She's mad at Sutton the most. She doesn't care about the other women. She doesn't care about Dorit. She didn't follow.

[A]

And that was the whole issue.

[B]

She didn't unfollow Dorit because she is mad at her. She unfollowed me because we're no longer working together. I don't have to follow you anymore. I don't give a fuck.

[A]

Correct. Correct. Correct. So she's. You're right. Sutton has no idea like, that this is all about her.

[B]

She is maddest at Sutton, I think. But their friendship is really the only one that's salvageable because they're the only one that had a friendship. It would be so weird to me if after this, they stopped being friends and they were then, in hindsight, only friends because they were on the show together. Like, I thought that they.

[A]

But the thing is, I don't believe that they were. They had a real friendship.

[B]

I agree. But if they stop being after this, then that's what that is like, that they didn't have a real friendship that would withstand whether or not they're both on the show. That it was just a show friendship. Like, Erica's still best friends. No, I know, right? That is sad. And I think that I.

[A]

Because it was a real friendship. But the reason Garcelle left had so much to do with Sutton that they can't be friends.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

So I don't think it makes it like a show. A show ship.

[B]

You know, Garcelle was not interested.

[A]

Giselle.

[B]

Garcelle's not interested in the. In the players on the show. Like, that was the difference between Sutton and Garcelle. Like, Garcelle was happy to just, like, be on Hater island talking, like, and doing the show like, this is a job. This is a show.

[A]

Showing up for work, my friends, 1,000%.

[B]

Sutton was not interested in that. She wants to have relationships with everyone. So I think that, like, it's not that she chose the other women over Garcelle. It's just like, that's not where she wanted to, like, be in this dynamic, in the group. Group.

[A]

Well, also, she has to think of herself and the future of her on the show too. Right. And being on an island, hater island, with one other person is a fun couple of seasons, but it's limiting. Right. Because if you really have no connection to any of these women, that's what happened to Garcelle. You really. They have no choice but to let you go because you make no sense. Okay.

[B]

But Garcelle chose to leave. Nobody was firing her. Not even close. Of course.

[A]

No, I'm saying. But I think Sutton's also forward thinking about her career. On the show being, like, I can't be on Hater island for much longer.

[B]

But Sutton is, at the present integral to the. To the show.

[A]

Yes. Yes.

[B]

Like, she's fine.

[A]

Her.

[B]

Her position is not in jeopardy.

[A]

It's not. But I don't think it's an interesting or, like, a long term solution.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

To be just like, Hater. Hater season after season, like, you and your best friend hating on everyone. Like. Like making no real connections outside of that.

[B]

But I do think, like, Sutton and Garcelle, like, will talk and maybe Sutton will apologize, but I don't think Garcelle will forgive her because it's like, you didn't want to choose me, be my best friend when there were all these other people here. Like, why do I need a friendship with you now? Like, I'll never see you again.

[A]

And I want to say Garcelle's right for that. Like, I agree There's. There's no need for her to be friends with Sutton anymore.

[B]

So their friendship was a show friendship after all.

[A]

And that's so sad, because it really wasn't.

[B]

Yeah. It was almost like they got close when they weren't filming. I remember one season they came out and they were just like, besties, and it's like, oh, yeah. Loved each other regardless.

[A]

It was so genuine.

[B]

Yeah. So it didn't feel that way. But if they can't, like, make amends and want to have their. And even Garcelle, like, I would be like ourselves. Well, the way we think ourselves will be. Which is like, no, you didn't choose me when, like, it mattered when I.

[A]

When I needed you too.

[B]

I don't need to be your, like, friend on the side. No.

[A]

Thanks a thousand percent.

[B]

However, someone who, like, loves that friendship and, like, will miss that person might be more forgiving.

[A]

Yeah. If it really added value to your life.

[B]

Yeah. And makes you sad to not be friends with that person. Take them back.

[A]

I could see, like, in a few years, like, an okay magazine, like, look, Garcelle and Sutton reunite. And, like, we don't care anymore.

[B]

No, we don't care anymore. But I understand, like, Sutton's right to give her space because she needs to, like, she's mad and she needs to go through those emotions. Like, you can't just stop being mad like that. So.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

And she needs to give her space to miss her.

[A]

And you're right that, like, Sutton also doesn't really understand, like, that this is really about her.

[B]

Yeah. No, you're not, like, the last on the list. You're number one.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

It's not a coincidence.

[A]

Those were party best. Five. Like, I actually really enjoyed them.

[B]

And you dared to call them weak.

[A]

I did. You were giving weak energy when you were describing them. That's the only thing I'll say.

[B]

I said interesting. And they were. We had the Pope. We had.

[A]

They were interesting.

[B]

Elizabeth Hurley and Billy Ray. How would you have described the stories?

[A]

Cosmopolitan. You know, we hit Italy, we hit British with Elizabeth Hurley. Back in America with the house.
