- [00:23]
B
They sound amazing.
- [00:25]
A
Welcome back to the Toast and happy Tuesday. That feels like a Monday, but it ain't. You know, it feels like a Monday, but it doesn't suck.
- [00:31]
B
Short week alert week.
- [00:33]
A
That is short.
- [00:34]
B
Yay. Yay.
- [00:35]
A
Happy President's Day week.
- [00:37]
B
Happy President's Day week. Everybody celebrated president.
- [00:41]
A
I did.
- [00:42]
B
In a meaningful manner.
- [00:43]
A
I actually did. I spent President's Day weekend with the president of a pretty big company.
- [00:48]
B
To the CEO of charity Lou Global.
- [00:50]
A
Yes. The CEO of Spritz Society. But more importantly, actually, I spent the Friday of President's Day weekend with kind of one of the world's leading presidents, kind of a controversial president.
- [01:02]
B
Who's that?
- [01:03]
A
My celeb spotting on on Friday.
- [01:05]
B
Oh, yeah. Is that what you want to. You want to share with everyone?
- [01:07]
A
Oh, yeah. So kind of like the craziest thing happened to us on Friday. We went to the beach, which is crazy enough. We're just like two gals from New York at the beach. And like, there were people there. And I turned to Jackie and I was like, that guy, like, is giving. Like, he looks like Scott Borchetta. Now, obviously Scott. Scott Borchetta wasn't at the beach right? Until he turned around and his shirts had big machine on it. And I was like, wait, that is Scott Borchetta. Like, you just. You don't expect to wake up and see Scott Borchetta, like, scorned music executive out in the streets at the beach.
- [01:38]
B
Yeah.
- [01:38]
A
Wearing a long sleeve shirt. It was so crazy. And AirPod Max says he was being like, really chatty on the phone, rolling calls, talking loud, like strolling. Being like, yeah, I have a job. He was giving job.
- [01:48]
B
Yeah. But he was also giving low key. Like, if you're not a discerning, eagle eyed, crazy celebrity podcaster, you might have not known that was the older gentleman, Porchetta, the man who. Which so many songs are written about and everybody.
- [02:02]
A
Because I posted on TikTok that I saw like, you know, Scott Borchetta.
- [02:04]
B
Oh, did you? Because you didn't post on Instagram.
- [02:06]
A
No, I wanted to test the real. The. The vibes on TikTok first and what they say. They were freaking out. People being like, did you go up to him and sing Father Figure? No, I didn't go up to him and sing the smallest man who ever Lived Jessica. Like, what do you think? What kind of animal do you guys think I am?
- [02:21]
B
You go up to him and sing Father Figure?
- [02:22]
A
No, I like, ran over my sister Margo.
- [02:24]
B
I was like, bigger weenie.
- [02:26]
A
We were like, giggling and taking pictures him behind his back. Like normal people. Like, no, I didn't go up to him and sing the Bridge of My Tears Ricochet. No, I didn't. I'm sorry, I'm not a real Swift.
- [02:36]
B
Do people do that to him?
- [02:38]
A
I don't. I actually don't think he gets spotted out a lot. And the thing is, he's actually like an extraordinarily wealthy man. What he was doing at, like, the beach, I don't know.
- [02:46]
B
Well, we were saying his other, his other artists were in town.
- [02:49]
A
Yeah, he was probably like, seeing local talent, maybe scouting like the South Florida music scene. Oh, I just started singing for him. Okay, let's say.
- [02:59]
B
Okay, let's.
- [02:59]
A
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- [03:00]
B
I'm so glad we're playing this game.
- [03:02]
A
Wants to give me a record.
- [03:03]
B
Wants to give you a record deal with the Swifty in you. Like, accept it.
- [03:07]
A
Of course. I just like, would hope that, like, the Internet wouldn't find out that, like, my big break was a big machine because, like, Big Machine has lots of artists. Like, I don't think, like, Scott's cancellation affected Big Machine.
- [03:18]
B
Like, didn't affect Dan and Shay.
- [03:19]
A
Right. Like, actually, you know what I mean? So being associated with Scott Borchetta, like, sorry, people need jobs, they need labels. And he owns a big, big one, especially in the country scene. But obviously as an outspoken Swifty, I gotta put me first. Yeah, I do.
- [03:33]
B
Or you could take your deal that Scott gave you.
- [03:36]
A
You could present it to Taylor or like, Columbia. No, no, no.
- [03:40]
B
But why would they care? They would say, go with Scott.
- [03:42]
A
Like, Right, right.
- [03:43]
B
But if Taylor wants to stop you from going with Scott, you could present it to her and say, like, you have first right of refusal.
- [03:49]
A
Well, I've often thought that Taylor should start a record label because wherever, like, label she goes to, it's always such a big story. And she's always like, fighting for artists rights. So it's like, start a good artist rights.
- [03:59]
B
Right.
- [04:00]
A
I've always thought that she should. Like, she has her own management company, she has her own production company. Like, start your own label, Be your own label.
- [04:05]
B
First of all, she's probably thought about it and decided that not to because.
- [04:09]
A
Like, the work that she does for Haim, like, she should be making money off of that first of all.
- [04:12]
B
I mean, and Gracie and Breener.
- [04:14]
A
Right, right.
- [04:15]
B
It's so when she puts someone on, it's so Raina James.
- [04:19]
A
Yeah.
- [04:19]
B
Starting her label.
- [04:21]
A
I keep talking about how like the TV in our Airbnb, like, opens up automatically to like Samsung TV plus cable.
- [04:26]
B
Like, what does it have you watching?
- [04:28]
A
So the other day, Channel one have. It always has the most random shit on, like very. What's his name?
- [04:34]
B
That was like the house we were in this summer, every time we turned on was on Brat tv.
- [04:38]
A
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Bratz. Like teenage young adults. Not Brat.
- [04:40]
B
We wish. No, no, like young adults, Brat tv, if you want to know.
- [04:43]
A
And it's like, it's like teenage content.
- [04:45]
B
Yeah, ya.
- [04:46]
A
Yeah. Well, in this one they always take like, me to the most random places. And the other day they were playing Nashville and Ben was like, what is this show? And I was explaining it to him. And what episode did they put it on? I won't spoil it. But like the one where the thing happens.
- [04:59]
B
So many things happened.
- [05:00]
A
Like the big soap opera. No, no, no. The thing that like, sort of changed the course of the show. Oh. And so Ben was like. I said to Ben, like, now that you've seen that, like, you actually don't really need to watch a show.
- [05:10]
B
Maybe he'll forget you guys. Actually, that's a great rewatch.
- [05:13]
A
It is. Well, I'm so busy right now watching Shahs of Sunset. Don't get me to call it the Valley Persian style. That's not what it's called. You had a perfect name of a perfect show.
- [05:23]
B
Shahs of the Valley. What about Shahs of the Valley?
- [05:26]
A
Valley Shahs.
- [05:27]
B
Like, it was like they were the Shahs of Sunset and now they are.
- [05:30]
A
The Shahs of the Valley. Or what's like a big street in the Valley. Shahs of North Robertson. Yeah.
- [05:38]
B
Shaws of Topanga Canyon.
- [05:40]
A
So while it's a bad name, everything else about the show is amazing. Like, it's so good to have. I had started it like a couple of weeks ago and I didn't make it past the first episode. It was good. I just like, wasn't in that sort of space. Oh my. I was in such a space last night for it. I watched like four episodes. It's so good. It's literally like. So they have. The OG is like people who have been reality stars for many years. Like, Reza is a perfect reality.
- [06:02]
B
Then they also have Reza Jackson.
- [06:04]
A
Yes. They have Reza J. So they have the OGs. Mercedes Javi, like, is a treasure. Her husband Tommy is like a reality TV dream goldness. I actually have, like, issues with her. I actually don't think she's a good reality star. She's so extreme and so chaotic, like, for the sake, I think, of being interesting. And it's just not interesting to see someone she sits down with, like, this guy she used to date. And, like, she's outside, like, blowing off steam within five seconds of him sitting down. Like, she's so drama, but not in an interesting way. She's like. And every scene she's storming out of, like, it's her anger. It's her anger. It's like, girl, you're 40. Like, yeah, she's just. She's not doing it for me. But they cast all these other people who are so valley. It's giving, like Michelle and Jesse, you know, And I love some of the people that they've cast. So a lot of the people from Shah's, I remember, like, they were born in Iran, but they've lived in America for the majority of their lives. They have this couple, sky, and I'm so sorry, I'm not to say her husband's name right, but he's my favorite person on the show. Badam Badgam, something like that. They fled Iran when they were, like, in their 20s and 30s. So they are, like, really, like. Like, they're American, but they're so, like, not assimilated. They're so funny. They chose really good people. Like, outside of the OGs, some I could live without. Resa J is like this, like, young party boy. They have this really cute couple who are totally the Danny and Nia, Amir and Natasha, and of course, Vita June. Like, it's. I become so Persian when the show comes on. It is the best show. I will get, like, fully caught up. Highly recommend. If you've been thinking about, like, start from the beginning, though. Shots of sunset is on Peacock. And if you, like, want to know true happiness, like, you will find it, like, in diamond water, you know?
- [07:40]
B
I'm glad that you're enjoying. I saw, like, a little bit of it this weekend. It was like a scene with Mercedes and Tommy, like, fighting, like, I know.
- [07:47]
A
So this also. It's great, obviously, timing for the show because we know that they're getting divorced in real time and you see, like, sort of the breaking apart of the marriage. I think, like, a big issue was, like, of course, a very stereotypical, like, they became parents and forgot about one another, you know, And Tommy has this, like, kind of, like, cute but annoying disposition where he's like a jokester all the time. And now their kid who's eight sham. He's, like, loves his dad. He's, like, copying his mom. So he's, like, making fun of mj and it's like, she just goes home and.
- [08:12]
B
Copying his dad.
- [08:13]
A
Sorry. Copying his dad. And, like, poking fun at his mom. And she goes home and everyone's making fun of her.
- [08:17]
B
Yeah.
- [08:17]
A
And it's, like, annoying. And she, like, asks him to stop, and he, like, doesn't get it. He's like, that's my love language. And she's, like, annoying. He's like, queens. Like, a bully from Queens.
- [08:24]
B
Like, that's really annoying.
- [08:26]
A
Yeah. And so Vita Jude steps in and takes him out to breakfast and is like. She's like, you're making her miserable. And he did not receive it well. So you see it, like, starting to unravel. It's such a good show.
- [08:37]
B
Oh, that's good. I actually watched a couple episodes of Southern Charm last night. I'm trying to catch back up. I don't want to skip over. And I think this season picks up because Zach said that it does, and he also watches. But the episodes I watched last night were not good. A couple things were happening that I was not enjoying. Like, first of all, every, like, the.
- [08:56]
A
Everyone hates Craig.
- [08:57]
B
Oh, Craig is having a rev. It's hard for Craig. I'll get to Craig. No, I meant so more so the rest of the show, like, half the episode is spent, like, with people on FaceTime talking to either their parents or their friends or, like, Austin and Charleston. I don't want to watch you on FaceTime recapping the, like, fight that happened two episodes ago. I've seen the replay of the fight four times in this episode, and, like, it wasn't that interesting to watch Austin and Craig yell at each other to begin with. Like, I don't like boys yelling, so I'm, like, not loving the central drama.
- [09:26]
A
Boys yelling, like, with their friends is so for the. Like, that's girly.
- [09:31]
B
So much focus on, like, people's pets. Like, Austin's cats. Austin's new cats. They had a kitty. I have to go home. And, you know, Molly has to go home and feed her something. Like, they had a party at Craig's and everybody had to leave because they had to go feed their pets. Like, it's funny when I say it.
- [09:48]
A
Yeah, but not to watch.
- [09:49]
B
It's not funny to watch. Like, they're on FaceTime. Like, look at my kitty.
- [09:53]
A
Yeah.
- [09:53]
B
And I like, let me tell you, I don't want to see your kitty. I don't want to see your FaceTime. I don't want to watch a TV show of your kitty on FaceTime.
- [09:59]
A
I have never been, like, somebody who really deeply follows Southern charm. Not since the very beginning, and especially in recent years. Like, I'm not interested, because anytime I see people, like, recapping it, it's like, hate for Craig. And I know Craig, like, offline. And when I tell you there isn't a more genuine, charitable individual, like, I can't turn on the TV and see my friend being hated on, like, I actually know him.
- [10:17]
B
Yeah. No, And Craig is, like, it.
- [10:19]
A
It's hard because now I see people, it's like, you know, the Austin redemption arc. Like, Austin was always right about Craig. I'm sorry. I'm not doing that.
- [10:26]
B
No, no. But, like, Craig is obviously, like, heartbroken and sad and so, like, he's drinking out and acting out, and then, like. But last season, when he was in a good, happy place, they were, like, mad at him for, like, not drinking and not having fun. And now, like, he's drinking and having fun, and they don't like him. And it's hard for Austin and Craig because they're, like, jealous of each other. Austin, Craig is, like, jealous that Austin is in, like, a good, stable relationship, and he doesn't seem to appreciate it, you know? And, like, I think Austin's a little bit jealous of, like, Craig's single mom.
- [10:53]
A
Yeah.
- [10:54]
B
And so they're just like this. But then. Yeah, it's. It's a mess. But I just feel like the show, like. And the girls are fighting about Molly's labia plasti. Like, my. Yeah, because Molly's like, you keep talking shit about my vagina. And, like, oh, that's. And then she's. No, no, she. No, but she's not. She didn't. Like, maybe Sally mentioned the fact that because Vanita literally said to Sally, Molly had a labiaplasty. I mean, guess who paid for it? Like, insinuating that the sugar daddy paid for it.
- [11:23]
A
What else is sugar daddy?
- [11:24]
B
And Sally goes to someone, a couple, and it's like, Molly had a labiaplasty, and guess who paid for it. And then that someone goes to Molly and says that Sally said that.
- [11:33]
A
Right. It's giving Sutton and Dorit and Amanda Francis.
- [11:36]
B
Yeah. And it's like, Vanita said it, but Molly just doesn't like Sally. But Vanita said the same thing. But you like her, so you're not mad at her. And then. Then Molly goes to Whitney. They're talking about my vagina. And it's like, now you're the one talking about it.
- [11:48]
A
And now we've said it.
- [11:49]
B
Like, now the one. You're the one who keeps bringing up that other people are talking about it when, like, the comment was this big and it didn't have to even make it to air.
- [11:54]
A
Yeah. No. So it sounds like I'm really not missing anything over. It's on the chart.
- [11:57]
B
Yeah. There. But, like, we have Charlie.
- [12:00]
A
Charlie.
- [12:01]
B
Charlie and Craig. I wonder what happens. I hope they're dating.
- [12:05]
A
I don't know. And you wonder something crazy. Ben was at the studio yesterday recording his podcast called. What's called I Can't Remember, and they had a guest on. Do you know what the guest's name was, Charlie? Craig Conover. But it wasn't Craig Conover of Southern Charm fame.
- [12:19]
B
It was like, a doctor and he was in South Carolina also.
- [12:21]
A
Oh, yeah. He, like. He dealt out GLP ones. He's like a big GLP one.
- [12:24]
B
Dr. Craig Con. Dr. Craig based in Charleston as opposed to Craig Conover, Esquire.
- [12:30]
A
Yeah. DDS.
- [12:31]
B
Now that's dentist.
- [12:33]
A
Yes.
- [12:34]
B
Q. Esq. Yeah.
- [12:36]
A
Okay. We're just, like, on top of our reality tv. It's giving pulse.
- [12:39]
B
Yeah. I almost, like, watched a screener of, like. I think maybe it was like, Summer House or something, but then I was like, how do I. I don't know if I could shut my mouth today. So I'll watch it on.
- [12:47]
A
Right. We also have Dear Toasters today. And today is. And I'm sure this is one of our stories. Today is the series finale of Tell Me Lies.
- [12:53]
B
I know when I keep seeing. Have people watched it already?
- [12:57]
A
No. You saw spoiler. Okay.
- [12:59]
B
It came out last night because I saw people being like, the crazy. No, no, just the crate. I didn't see any spoilers. No, no, no. But people are, like, being like, the ending was bad. Perfect.
- [13:08]
A
Oh, good.
- [13:09]
B
And I'm just like, when did everyone watch it? I got.
- [13:11]
A
Well, the ending is perfect if Steven, like, dies at the wedding. Right.
- [13:13]
B
Or if. Or if Lucy murders Stephen. Right.
- [13:17]
A
I actually don't care. Does it?
- [13:19]
B
What do you think would be the perfect ending to this show?
- [13:22]
A
Stephen dying, like, for. That's the only way that everyone can unwrap themselves.
- [13:26]
B
And also, like, one of, like, a chandelier falling on him where nobody.
- [13:29]
A
Yes. No, he trips. He trips and falls into the pool and he's drunk and nobody knows and he drowns. No.
- [13:35]
B
Or like, big little lie style, where it's like everybody has a reasoning person.
- [13:39]
A
And so the chandelier fell and so.
- [13:42]
B
They kill him and then they drop the chandelier on.
- [13:44]
A
Yes. And then they're all free from this like eight years long nightmare.
- [13:48]
B
Huh? I love it.
- [13:51]
A
So will be tomorrow.
- [13:53]
B
We didn't spoil it for you.
- [13:55]
A
We have Dear toasters, the swirlies are in need. And of course, one girl is actually writing in the age old question, is my boyfriend gay? So I'll be looking forward to helping her out, discussing.
- [14:04]
B
I think I know well where you'll stand on that.
- [14:06]
A
Well, think about Turdi. You never know.
- [14:08]
B
And I do feel like if you have to ask, well, then we've said it.
- [14:13]
A
What else did we want to chat about this weekend?
- [14:15]
B
We had such a party weekend.
- [14:17]
A
We did. So much love and laughter. Like, so much laughter, so much mahjong.
- [14:21]
B
So much.
- [14:21]
A
We're getting so good at mahjong.
- [14:23]
B
Like, I feel my brain expanding. And I want to say, like, I think mahjong is like keeping. It's breaking my brain in intact. Like, my brain would otherwise be mush right now. Oh, and I also want to say, like, when I'm done breastfeeding, I'm out of postpartum. Like, it's over for you. Once I have my. Oh my.
- [14:38]
A
Oh, that's so true.
- [14:40]
B
Once I have all my wits about me.
- [14:41]
A
Like, you're not being drained.
- [14:42]
B
And I can be like, you know, what's his name? Zach Alifanakis.
- [14:46]
A
And yeah. Overwatch, when the numbers are. She's counting tiles. Yeah, over for you. I didn't know what you were going with that, but 100. Because I feel like you're definitely being held back.
- [14:56]
B
Yeah, because my brain is mush.
- [14:57]
A
Like, the thing with mahjong is. And I know everyone's like, tired of me, but I have been playing for 10 years and I always play, like, very sporadically. So not like consistently. I don't play.
- [15:05]
B
No. When we don't play in a few days, like, it takes me a couple rounds to get it back.
- [15:08]
A
So we've been playing like pretty much back to back, like multiple times a week. And when you're in a good groove like that, you get so good.
- [15:14]
B
And also I'm now getting familiar. Like, I have my favorite hands.
- [15:17]
A
Right?
- [15:17]
B
Me too. And there was like, I would see.
- [15:19]
A
Hands when I have the tiles, but.
- [15:21]
B
Now, like yesterday, I never played a three, six, nine, him, but I saw I have three and six and nine. So I'm like, okay, I'll play a three, six, nine hand. And I found some really parchy hands. And so I feel like people who are more familiar with the card than we were.
- [15:31]
A
They.
- [15:32]
B
They know all the. They, like, all. All those hands feel.
- [15:34]
A
But then they make a new card.
- [15:35]
B
Every year just keeping us all. That's what I was going to say. I'm excited for the new card. Will be a level playing field because I feel like we're a little bit behind because we don't know the card so well.
- [15:43]
A
Love that.
- [15:44]
B
So, like, April's gonna be major.
- [15:46]
A
You know how, like, pickleball became so popular and, like, pickleball started popping up everywhere? And then they were doing, like, celebrity pickleball tournaments sponsored by Celsius. I need them to do a celebrity mahjong tournament where it's, like, us, Emily Kaiser, Kenzie.
- [15:58]
B
Yeah.
- [15:59]
A
I feel like every celebrity plays.
- [16:01]
B
Is Lauren Elizabeth playing now?
- [16:03]
A
Probably.
- [16:03]
B
I feel like I saw her.
- [16:04]
A
If you're cool, you're playing maj. And it's so good for the brain. I'm, like, never on my phone. I'm just like. I always have, like, the. The baby monitor on loud, and I'm not on my phone. I'm, like, engaging. It's brain camp.
- [16:14]
B
Yeah.
- [16:15]
A
And I'm, like, addicted to playing. I'm like, jackie's house. I'm like, where's. I'm, like, itching. I'm like, where's our fourth?
- [16:18]
B
Yeah.
- [16:19]
A
We learned how to play with, like, a ghost player. It's not as fun.
- [16:21]
B
I like it. It goes quick.
- [16:22]
A
It does. And now I'm, like, one of those players. I can't really play with Ben if you're slow. Like, I can't play with you.
- [16:28]
B
Yeah.
- [16:29]
A
Like, Olivia played with us, and she was like, oh, this table's, like, really hostile. Like, you're just being slow. I was like, a little, you know. And she's new to gay. I should have been nicer, but I couldn't.
- [16:40]
B
You were hot in the pants for the maj. Yeah.
- [16:43]
A
So just, like, expanding our brains. Extending our. Just forgot it should be diving.
- [16:50]
B
Maybe not expanding.
- [16:51]
A
I was, like, trying. Yeah. I was, like, trying to, like, come up with a party sentence to, like, end that segment, maybe move on. And I couldn't just.
- [16:56]
B
But what did you. What were you. What was the sentiment you were trying to convey?
- [17:00]
A
We are just like, women doing a lot, you know, we're expanding our families.
- [17:03]
B
Expanding our minds, expanding our business. Our businesses.
- [17:07]
A
Yes. You guys, Jack and I actually came up. We're gonna be annoying. We came up with a business idea over the weekend. We don't have a lot of business ideas in the sense that, like, we do what we do, and we have a Good business. And we're not always trying to, like, reinvent the wheel or anything, but we came up with a. With a business idea, a brick and mortar business idea that we think will really take off. So we thought of it yesterday and we haven't made any, like, steps towards. But just know, like, in 18 months, we are going to be, like, launching a major business. Launching it, like, I think an industry shifting business. And we sound like we're joking, but we're not.
- [17:39]
B
Yes. Hopefully we can get it off the ground.
- [17:41]
A
Yeah. We need some, like, partners.
- [17:44]
B
Strategic partners.
- [17:45]
A
Strategic partners in hospitality, in food and beverage.
- [17:51]
B
Mm.
- [17:53]
A
And in local South Florida real estate. I don't wanna give too much away.
- [17:59]
B
I think we need a shark. No, wait. Let's just play. If we can have any shark on our business, this business. Which shark would you want?
- [18:09]
A
So Ben was actually throwing around some great names yesterday. Ben was aiming really high even though, like, he would get it done. So.
- [18:18]
B
Which sharks have.
- [18:19]
A
Oh, sorry, do we have to choose from sharks or can we just talk about, like, successful business people?
- [18:22]
B
Oh, new. Choose from sharks. And guest sharks. And guest sharks.
- [18:26]
A
And guest sharks. Okay.
- [18:29]
B
I think I would still go Mr. Wonderful. He's just smart.
- [18:33]
A
Yeah. But, like, for what we're doing.
- [18:36]
B
He'S.
- [18:36]
A
Not the right fit. He does, like, educational. What?
- [18:39]
B
That's crazy that you would turn down Mr. Wonderful.
- [18:41]
A
I would never. I love him with all my heart, but I don't think he's the right.
- [18:46]
B
Thing, you know, because this. This idea is so big. There's actually, like, not even the shark for it.
- [18:51]
A
No. I don't think anyone on the shark tank or their guest co host, like, is the right person for this.
- [18:57]
B
They don't do what we do.
- [18:58]
A
They don't do hospitality.
- [18:59]
B
They don't do what we do.
- [19:00]
A
They don't do what we do. Like, what the founder of Ring Doorbell. He can't help us, you know?
- [19:05]
B
Yeah.
- [19:06]
A
Like, maybe Bethany. She might be the closest, but I still don't think she's right for it.
- [19:10]
B
Rowan.
- [19:11]
A
So I was actually thinking Rowan. He does beverage. Which again, is like, not this. But I feel like he operates. Yeah, I was. His name is Rohan, I think I was thinking Rohan.
- [19:21]
B
His friends come.
- [19:22]
A
Rowan. Oh, yeah. For sure. Yeah.
- [19:26]
B
Okay. Okay. We won't. We won't tease anymore because it's annoying.
- [19:29]
A
To talk about, like, our groundbreaking business.
- [19:31]
B
Idea and our groundwork like, that is not even a crumb of an idea yet. So, like, there. We just. We have to put in the legwork first.
- [19:37]

Thank you. The tertiary.
- [26:11]
A
You're welcome.
- [26:11]
B
Okay, today's stories, like, are so not the Tuesday after a long weekend, but like, I feel it's not our fault. No, no, no. But they're like, good in their own way. They're just like, not like major headlines.
- [26:22]
A
Yeah.
- [26:22]
B
But like, all very interesting. Okay, so in. In order of no one particular, Nicole Kidman is being actively sought out by this chairman of MGM Resorts.
- [26:34]
A
Hurts. What did she do?
- [26:36]
B
No, in a romantic way.
- [26:38]
A
Oh, Oh, I thought like, she like, stretched a hotel room and they need her to like, you know.
- [26:43]
B
No, Paul.
- [26:44]
A
Fill out a credit card authorization form.
- [26:45]
B
Paul Saylor.
- [26:46]
A
Wait, I'm cracking. I had no idea what that sentence meant.
- [26:49]
B
Like. No, that was a confusion. What did you say? Nicole Kidman is being actively sought by the chair.
- [26:54]
A
Yeah, it's giving like high speed car chase.
- [26:56]
B
No, he likes. He has a crush on her.
- [26:58]
A
Oh, my God.
- [26:58]
B
The chairman of MGM has a crush on Nicole Kidman.
- [27:00]
A
Okay.
- [27:01]
B
And he is pursuing her in a romantic capacity.
- [27:02]
A
Can I see a picture of Paul?
- [27:04]
B
You can. Okay, what do you think? Does he have a chance?
- [27:08]
A
No, but what job did he get?
- [27:11]
B
Chairman of the board of MGM Resorts International.
- [27:13]
A
So he has a chance.
- [27:15]
B
Yeah, he has his eye on Nicole Kin. And TMZ has learned multiple sources with direct knowledge.
- [27:19]
A
This is so random.
- [27:21]
B
Well, like, we're always looking for a business mempo, but like, we don't know any anonymous businessmen other than that's the.
- [27:26]
A
Whole point of a businessmanpo. We're not supposed to know your name.
- [27:28]
B
Businessman. So like, add Paul Salem to the List of eligibles.
- [27:32]
A
I love him. How is he putting himself out there?
- [27:35]
B
So TMZ is told they're not eating at this point. The sources say they have shared two mutual friends and have met twice in group settings.
- [27:42]
A
What the fuck? I don't get it. What do you mean? Like, it's not how, like, high profile people act. Yeah, no, not that this is news. I love this story, but this is not how, like, really wealthy people act. It's supposed to be cool.
- [27:53]
B
Yeah, like, why?
- [27:54]
A
I met her once through a friend, and now you're telling me twice.
- [27:56]
B
But why does TMZ know this? Know that Paul, like, likes her? He hasn't even asked her out yet. Why are we talking about it?
- [28:02]
A
This is so strange, and I feel.
- [28:04]
B
Like it's gonna backfire before it even has a chance.
- [28:06]
A
And this is like, what that Olympic bronze medalist, like, thought he was doing. Like, big romantic gesture. He's like, maybe if I go to TMZ and you just know, like, Nicole Kidman hates the press. Yeah, he's going about this all the wrong way.
- [28:17]
B
Yeah, he needs to invite her to MGM as, like. Well, I don't even think.
- [28:22]
A
She's not a Vegas girl.
- [28:23]
B
No, like, he could invite her as, like, a guest of honor, but, like, she doesn't need a free trip to Vegas. They'll have to pay her to get her there. There.
- [28:30]
A
Yeah.
- [28:30]
B
And then.
- [28:31]
A
But also, it's not just Vegas. MGM owns, like.
- [28:34]
B
Oh, true. Oh, by the way, she doesn't need a free trip anywhere.
- [28:36]
A
Paul sounds like he could be a great strategic partner for our business. So.
- [28:42]
B
That's what you say.
- [28:43]
A
So watch what you say about Paul. He's extremely handsome.
- [28:46]
B
He's extremely handsome. I really ship him. And we call.
- [28:49]
A
He sounds like a great guy to not only go into business with, but also a life. You know what?
- [28:53]
B
I really like this sort of story. Like, like, so and so has a crush on so and so. Like, I want.
- [28:58]
A
You know what? Sure.
- [29:00]
B
That's news. I want to know.
- [29:02]
A
Yeah, Yeah, I have a crush.
- [29:04]
B
And even if it goes nowhere, like, I'd like to know what's in your heart.
- [29:07]
A
That's beautiful. And I personally love, like, learning about a new businessman, you know?
- [29:12]
B
Me too. Me too. We should learn about a new businessman.
- [29:16]
A
The businessman of the week. New segment idea. Segment Businessman of the Week. Cause obviously, Paul. Paul David. What's his last name? Is the Businessman of the week. I like how I made him Jewish. Paul David.
- [29:30]
B
He will obviously be our inaugural businessman of the week, But I think, can.
- [29:36]
A
We get a Framed photo for these shelves of Paul Shalem.
- [29:42]
B
Every week we should each like we'll alternate. You bring a businessman. Like it could think of your what's your favorite And I think that will.
- [29:48]
A
Encourage us us to like start reading about business news.
- [29:51]
B
I think so too because did you hear actually we have a lot of business news.
- [29:54]
A
I have it. I have a businessman of the week. Oh my God, I do. Let me find his name. Hold on.

A
He's a CEO and founder of Stoneridge Holdings Group. Do you know him?
- [30:30]
B
No, I don't know. Stoner.
- [30:31]
A
I feel like he might be because this has to do with sports. He has pledged $100 million to give 200 grand in financial benefits to every US Olympian and Para Olympian starting in Milan. Because you know, they don't get paid. A lot of them like work multiple jobs. So if you go to the Olympics and represent our country. This guy's giving you 200 grand.
- [30:49]
B
That's great. Can I see a picture of him? So it's a hundred million total for that?
- [30:56]
A
Yeah, I think it's not just for this Olympics though. It's like a fund.
- [30:59]
B
Oh, wow.

B
No, but literally it's in Daily Mail. It's Everywhere that Paul is.
- [32:12]
A
Right. So how does this sort of information get out? It's giving, like he had mgm, like, seriously, the PR team draft of a statement.
- [32:18]
B
Multiple sources with direct knowledge tell us Salem is romantically pursuing the Oscar winning actress.
- [32:23]
A
Right. So it's like not even a dating announcement.
- [32:25]
B
I don't know.
- [32:25]
A
I've never. I. This is not like a. There's no template for a story like this. Do you know what I mean? There's a precedent.
- [32:30]
B
It breaks them all.
- [32:31]
A
It's unprecedented.
- [32:34]
B
It's broken the mold.
- [32:35]
A
It's broken me. I, like, don't know what to say. I'm over here talking about businessman of.
- [32:38]
B
The Week, like Businessman of the Week, though, a great idea has been born.
- [32:42]
A
Yes. Right.
- [32:44]
B
Are you ready for our next story? Frida Baby has responded to the controversy. They have put out a statement in defense of Frida Baby self. They say from the very beginning, Frida has used humor to talk about the real raw and messy parts of parenting that too often go unspoken. We do this because parenting can be isolating and overwhelming, and sometimes a moment of levity is what makes a hard experience feel human, shared and survivable. They added that while the products are designed for infants, the brand's voice is intentionally written for the adults caring for them to make, quote, awkward and difficult experiences feel lighter. However, they acknowledge that humor is personal. What's funny to one parent can feel like too much to another. We're never trying to offend, push boundaries for shock value or make anyone feel uncomfortable. They emphasize their mission to support families through some of the most vulnerable and transformative chapters of their lives. We will continue to show up with honesty, empathy, and courage. I was, I was reading this statement with an open mind until then, that line, because I don't agree with the statement, but I was like, giving it a chance. Until we will continue to show up with honesty, empathy, that's just word salad. Yummy, yummy.
- [33:46]
A
So I think for the most part, people have been like, wow, this is like a rude statement. They're basically, like, not apologizing.
- [33:51]
B
They're saying like, you're not funny.
- [33:52]
A
No, like, you don't get it.
- [33:53]
B
You don't get it. We're funnier than you. And this is mature humor. Get over it now.
- [33:58]
A
I kind of like this statement. Like, I do. Like when, like, no, they said what they said. Like, this is their way of marketing. And while they're not hurting anyone, some people think it's like taking it a little far and they're not being like, wokey like no, we're sorry. We're all gonna cancel ourselves. Like, I kind of like that they're like, no, this is what we do. If you don't like it, like, that's totally fine. I'm like, I'm kind of over it. Like, I'm not going to punish myself by, like, canceling this company. Like, I need them more than they need me. And I saw somebody make a really good comparison that, like, you know, because if you ever watch, like, Shrek or, like, a kids movie, there's actually, like, a lot of adult humor, like, layered on top of it that obviously a kid would never understand. But it's, like, for the adult adults now. They took this a little far. And, like, I still don't think that it's a good way or an appropriate way of, like, marketing your products, but it's their way and they're doing it, you know?
- [34:49]
B
Yes. And I can understand, like, it's jokes for the adults, but there are some jokes, like, about having a threesome with your baby.
- [34:59]
A
But I do think when I feel.
- [35:00]
B
Like for something like that, because it's so sensitive and then, like, it's just so inappropriate. Like, they could have just said a couple of them missed the mark.
- [35:09]
A
Yes. Because now people are going back and being hypersensitive. Like, some of the stuff isn't.
- [35:13]
B
Some of the. When it's put in the light and next to baby threesome.
- [35:17]
A
Yeah.
- [35:17]
B
Then everything looks.
- [35:18]
A
Baby threesome's really bad.
- [35:19]
B
So they could have said some of them missed the mark.
- [35:22]
A
Yeah.
- [35:23]
B
And. And maybe some of those posts were from a while ago. So they could have been like. And. And that was in the past. And. And we com. We're going forward with honesty, empathy, and better judgment. Whatever. 3.
- [35:32]
A
Something was, like, new.
- [35:34]
B
No, I feel it was new. Okay, so still. It was in yesterday's. Yeah, no, there was zero acknowledgment that even any part of it missed the mark.
- [35:45]
A
Yeah.
- [35:46]
B
And with this category and this subject, you know, these, like, I'm sorry, there's literally, like, no room.
- [35:51]
A
Room for error.
- [35:52]
B
No, I agree.
- [35:54]
A
But I'm moving. Like, I am letting go.
- [35:58]
B
I agree. I'm not gonna, like, punish myself. There's something Frida that I love and I want. Like, I'm not gonna, like, full boycott, like, Balenc. But it's not going to be my default.
- [36:08]
A
Oh.
- [36:08]
B
Because Frida makes it. Like, you know, sometimes I just buy the freedom ones. I'm like, oh, well, like, it's probably better until I know that, like, it's the best One I'm not gonna just, like, be always throwing my money at.
- [36:19]
A
Okay.
- [36:20]
B
You know?
- [36:20]
A
Yeah. I can't, like, work that hard, you know, If I need something, I'm just getting it, you know?
- [36:26]
B
I don't know.
- [36:28]
A
Like, I don't really believe that there's like a ring of like, in. At Balenciaga. I actually felt like there was something extremely nefarious going on.
- [36:35]
B
I agree.
- [36:36]
A
And we never got any sort of resolution and it was just really spooky.
- [36:40]
B
No. And also, it's not hard for me to not shop, like, with Frida.
- [36:45]
A
I feel like Frida is a company that, like, up until this point, like, has like, talk the talk and walk the walk. I feel like they are like a parent founded company. I feel like they do. Like, you have. I think I'm always hearing about, like, you know, so many moms work there and they have great parental leave and, like, they do a lot of the things that they say they're gonna do.
- [37:00]
B
We've heard that they have terrible parental believe. That's weird that you just said that, because that's what I heard.
- [37:05]
A
All right, now we have to Google it. Hold on.
- [37:07]
B
And it's a very toxic workplace. Someone sent me that. But that's. I didn't bring it up because, like, just someone sent it to me. It could be wrong.
- [37:14]
A
Okay. Free to provides employees with flexible, paid, paid pregnancy and parental leave as a part of their benefits package. Yeah, flexible as me now. Like, good luck finding anything about them right now that doesn't have to do with, like, the sexual jokes.
- [37:32]
B
Jokes and memes. It's just jokes and memes. Right.
- [37:36]
A
Great Maternity leave. Okay. I'm on glass door. You know, where people can, like, leave. So Frida baby has a 4.4, but there's only 13 reviews. They have health insurance, dental insurance, flexible spending account, vision insurance, life insurance. During summer, you get to work from home. Okay, a lot of people are saying that 15 days PTO.
- [37:54]
B
Okay, I thought you were saying summer remote.
- [37:55]
A
And a great maternity leave. Three months and one remote month for a parent company. I think they could do a little bit better.
- [38:01]
B
They could, but that's not. That's like, standard. The remote month is nice.
- [38:05]
A
Freda has so many company perks. Meals, swag, generous PTO hairs, hair, nails, great parking, strong benefits, matching a 401k and a beautiful office, according to anonymous.
- [38:14]
B
Team leader, Mr. Freda.
- [38:18]
A
And I think they make, like, products that nobody else makes. Like, for moms, like, postpartum. Like, I'm just. I'm giving them another Chance, Like, I can't. I can't not. I can't afford not to, too.
- [38:27]
B
Yeah, I'll see how it. I'll see what I do next. I don't know if I'll pull the trigger.
- [38:33]
A
Yeah. One thing about Jackie, you think she's gonna dig and cheese eggs.
- [38:35]
B
Like, yeah, but, like, this just rubs me the wrong way and that I opened, like, the Frida thing that I bought right before this straw. I opened it this morning. Not happily. I already bought it, of course. But, like, no, and don't, like, throw.
- [38:47]
A
I see. I see people doing this all the time. Like, don't throw away your Frida products. First of all, you bought them. Second of all, that's so wasteful. And I can understand somebody, like, even like, Balenciaga, don't throw it away. Like, you paid for it. You don't have to wear it, but, like, you can still have it.
- [39:00]
B
Go sell it.
- [39:01]
A
Yeah, like, something. Don't throw away your feet of products. Like, then you're just, like, punishing your baby.
- [39:04]
B
You're punishing yourself.
- [39:05]
A
Yeah.
- [39:05]
B
You already paid for it right now.
- [39:07]
A
To go out and, like, spend more money and, like, leave the house. Don't.
- [39:09]
B
Yeah, I agree with you, though. Like, I like when people are like, no, you know what? This is who we are. This is what we do. But I just, like, not for this.
- [39:17]
A
I know in, like, backlash culture, when people do nothing wrong, they apologize. And then it gets into a thing where, like, if you don't apologize, you're evil. And I think it's like a really vicious cycle cycle. So for a company to be like, no, no, like, this is our thing. Like, if you don't like it, you don't get it. Like, that's fine and we're sorry if that hurts you. It just hurts you. So I do like that approach now. This is such a sensitive topic. Like, maybe not the right time to do it, but I do like when people are like, well, what if you.
- [39:37]
B
Just off, like, yeah, but a couple things went too far and they should have just acknowledged. Claimed that, you know. Yeah, but then it sort of is like admitting, like, oh, yeah, we're just freaking. We're freaky.
- [39:48]
A
It's an enormous admission.
- [39:49]
B
Freaky out, Frida.
- [39:50]
A
Freaky Frank.
- [39:52]
B
So I guess they actually couldn't admit it otherwise. It's like, oh, okay, a bunch of.
- [39:56]
A
Pedophiles that you have that admission on your permanent record.
- [40:00]
B
Yeah, but they could have just blamed, like, Jim.
- [40:03]
A
And why as a kid, were we always, like, threatened with the permanent record? Like, what record is that? Like, your school record?
- [40:09]
B
Well, it would have been your school record as a child.
- [40:11]
A
That goes on your permanent record. Like, do I currently have a record?
- [40:16]
B
Well, you don't have record record, or.
- [40:17]
A
Is it, like, a judicial record?
- [40:19]
B
There's both.
- [40:20]
A
Like, the way they were saying it was like, you have a permanent record your whole life. The government?
- [40:23]
B
No. Well, I hope not. But you have your school record, and then if you have a record.
- [40:27]
A
Right, you have a record. You have your cousins, then you have your first cousin.
- [40:30]
B
Exactly. And you don't have a record right now. No, as far as we know. Tg Are you ready for our next story? It's a major memoir news. Not major. Oh, minor memoir news.
- [40:42]
A
Okay. Try Joshua Babson. Oh, wow. It's really, really Joshua?
- [40:49]
B
No, no, it's not that. Try. I wanted to talk about. Because we always talk about Joshua.
- [40:53]
A
Did you forsake, like, any other story for Joshua Bassett's memoir?
- [40:56]
B
Maybe, like, Brooks Nader passing out on the. On the private plane?
- [40:58]
A
Okay, can we also talk about Brick Sn birthday party in St. Bart's yes.
- [41:01]
B
But first, we're talking about Joshua Bassett's memoir. What do you think it's called?
- [41:04]
A
Memoirs of a Basset. Nope. I don't know. So he has, like, the Disney background. Would I be able to guess it?
- [41:11]
B
No.
- [41:12]
A
Oh, so go.
- [41:13]
B
It's actually a pretty good, like, overarching title name. Rookie. My Public, Private, My First Period. My Public, Private and Secret Life.
- [41:25]
A
That's so funny. I think this is an awful title. Like, just all around Rookie. He's not a baseball player.
- [41:30]
B
Maybe he is, but he's known for.
- [41:32]
A
Singing and dancing, so.
- [41:33]
B
You know whose memoir could be called Rookie? Whenever we find out who they are.
- [41:40]
A
Like the Sports Illustrated rookie of the year, Pug Caso. You are, like, always trying to hurt me. Like, Jackie actually said to me before we recorded today that, yeah, I'm rooting for Pug Caso for the remainder of the season of the Masked Singer, when, you know, he would, like, attacked me personally.
- [41:55]
B
It was the audience that attacked you. He did what he had to do. And imagine how Pug was feeling in that costume.
- [42:01]
A
Warm.
- [42:01]
B
Knowing how that he's going up against Queen Corgi.
- [42:04]
A
Yeah, I can't even listen to that song anymore.
- [42:06]
B
Ordinarily, that's how it came up this morning when Mary was playing in, like, our pre show, like, jam sesh.
- [42:11]
A
We are always jamming. Yeah.
- [42:12]
B
And she was like, this song is ruined for me.
- [42:15]
A
It is.
- [42:15]
B
Told you my truth.
- [42:16]
A
Right. That she's rooting For Bakasa, she has a picture of him on our wall. He's the background of her own.
- [42:20]
B
I need to know who it is.
- [42:23]
A
I need to know who it is.
- [42:25]
B
And the funny thing, how come no one. You don't have any producers that will just tell you and put us out of our misery.
- [42:30]
A
The thing is, I actually think that they won't tell. If I had asked, maybe they would have told me, but they know I'm obsessed with it, and, like, they don't want me to say it on the show because, like, they take. Take the integrity of.
- [42:38]
B
Yeah, it's true.
- [42:39]
A
So I don't think they would tell me. But it's funny how, like, it's pretty much decided who everyone is. Like, people on Reddit, they figured out everyone. They knew Billy Ray Cyrus. I think they know that Galaxy Girl is Ashley Simpson. They know that the Stingray is Evan Ross. Like, how cute. A married couple on Together.
- [42:52]
B
Wow.
- [42:52]
A
So they figured they know Snow cone is Heidi Pratt.
- [42:54]
B
Imagine if Ben was on it too. Would that make it better?
- [42:56]
A
They should have done that. That would have made it worse.
- [42:58]
B
Okay.
- [42:58]
A
Because, like, the only thing who needed.
- [43:00]
B
Him with you, with child care, like.
- [43:01]
A
He was my nanny. They figured out who everyone is. Except there's still this big question mark on Picasso, the person I just need to know. And it's like they're. They kind of have nothing right now.
- [43:14]
B
Well, they have Anthony Ramos, which I.
- [43:16]
A
Just, like, have a really hard time believing he would do the show.
- [43:19]
B
Have you checked, like, the. The chat boards recently on who was Pug Caso?
- [43:23]
A
They're still throwing around Court Overstreet based on, like, a little research I did just, like, behind the scenes of someone I know who, like, has, like. Who knows Cord. He, like, wasn't in LA at that time. They don't think.
- [43:33]
B
Viewers strongly believe it's Phillip Phillips.
- [43:35]
A
Oh, okay, wait. And then did you see Philip Phillips made a TikTok about us.
- [43:39]
B
Yeah.
- [43:40]
A
Where we were talking about the masked singer, and I don't think if he was Pug Caso, he would have made that until he was revealed. Do you know what I mean?
- [43:50]
B
Really? Yeah. No, I feel like the way. Same way you did Crumbs.
- [43:53]
A
Oh, maybe they, like, are leaving crumbs.
- [43:55]
B
Okay, this is what, like, wait, if.
- [43:56]
A
It was Philip Phillips, I would die. Why?
- [43:58]
B
Gemini said panelists, guests, all these, I bet. I don't think they were right. Clues point to Philip Phillips. Other less likely theories included Cord over street and Anthony Ramos and Matthew Morrison.
- [44:09]
A
I'm still holding out hope. Oh, I Just haven't heard Philip Phillips sing in a really long time. I need to go find a cover of him singing. Like, do put in the work.
- [44:17]
B
Yeah. People say Philip, Philip Anthony Ramos. Okay, I'm really pulling for Anthony Ramos.
- [44:24]
A
I know you are. And I know, like, if Anthony Ramos came up to you and, like, slapped you in the face, you would say, who are you? Like, you have no idea who he is.
- [44:30]
B
The clues were really compelling.
- [44:31]
A
You don't even know who he is.
- [44:33]
B
Hamilton.
- [44:34]
A
You've never seen Hamilton.
- [44:36]
B
He must be in something in the Heights.
- [44:37]
A
You never saw that either.
- [44:38]
B
You know, I should start following him to see if, like, he's leaving any crumbs the way you do.
- [44:42]
A
Right. We wouldn't know if he's singing on.
- [44:44]
B
His podcast more and more.
- [44:47]
A
Oh, maybe. Actually, that's a good call. Maybe, like, production asked him to make a TikTok.
- [44:53]
B
Let me look at his Instagram.
- [44:54]
A
Let's do this later. We have so much to do here. Okay.
- [44:56]
B
I'm just obsessed.
- [44:57]
A
Yeah.
- [44:57]
B
Okay. So, Jonathan. Oh, Joshua Baptist memoirs are coming out. Memoirs of a Joshua.
- [45:02]
A
Like, if he doesn't have five chapters, no offense, like, this is gonna be really mean. I'm like, personally, I don't need a memoir from him. I'm not really interested in any aspect of his life other than that, like, three year period where. Sorry, three month period where he stopped dating Olivia Rodrigo and started dating Sabrina Carpenter and then created, like, two of the biggest pop stars on the planet.
- [45:19]
B
Like, he doesn't have enough credit. How does that make him feel? Right.
- [45:21]
A
Does he get any proceeds from anything? Like, he's just sort of was left behind. Sabrina was almost left behind. That saga. I will never stop talking.
- [45:29]
B
No, it's insane.
- [45:30]
A
I need. You know how they do.
- [45:31]
B
She defied the odds.
- [45:33]
A
Sabrina. Oh, it almost became the saddest story ever. Like, there was a year or two long period where Olivia ate her up, chewed her out, she released skin. Nobody cared. And then Olivia went on to become, like, almost the level of Taylor Swift. Like, almost. And then something happened. I feel like Taylor actually got involved. Like, I have so many conspiracy theories about that time. And, like, how Taylor played into all the of it. Stopped being friends with Olivia, started touring with Sabrina. Like, there's so much I need, like, an actual documentary on that. Because Sabrina, it was almost the greatest tragedy, like, for what happened to Sabrina.
- [46:06]
B
It does feel like Taylor sort of weighed the scales.
- [46:09]
A
Yeah. Because whoever Taylor gives her, people are always like, she's the next Taylor Swift. And no one really was until Olivia Rodrigo. She was so on her way to becoming like a real contender. And I think she rubbed Taylor the wrong way. They had some sort of something with the licensing and the sampling something and they both hate each other now. And I think just to stick it even more to Olivia, Sabrina, Olivia Taylor was like, well, let me give my approval to Sabrina, you know, opening up for the ERAS tour at such an interesting time too, like for the ERAS tour. And then tick tock. A lot of it was natural, like slam the door, like that dance. That launch launched Sabrina a lot. It was a perfect storm. But Taylor definitely helped.
- [46:51]
B
Yeah, but Sabrina has the goods. Plenty of people have open for Taylor.
- [46:54]
A
Well, Taylor gives her approval to a lot of people who like, are not threatening. Like she's always like lifting up haim. They will never in a meaningful way, like impact the music industry, let alone, let alone Taylor. You know, she always gives Gracie like her flowers and Gracie's sort of like a non threatening. She's powerful. She's. I'm sorry, she's successful and she's talented, but she's not really ever going to be like a threat to Taylor. Taylor. So when Sabrina got like the Taylor, that was the first time Taylor ever gave flowers to somebody who like has what it takes.
- [47:25]
B
But Olivia too.
- [47:26]
A
Right. But then she stopped.
- [47:27]
B
So the second time.
- [47:28]
A
But then she stopped. Yeah, the second time. Yeah. And I think she did it like for a lot of reasons.
- [47:34]
B
Yeah. Yeah. Are you ready for our next story?
- [47:37]
A
Yeah.
- [47:37]
B
A little wacky Olympic Village news of the day.
- [47:39]
A
Oh, God.
- [47:39]
B
Olympic villages run out of condominium at the 2026. Oh, my God.
- [47:43]
A
We're always talking something about like sexual.
- [47:45]
B
Activity at the Olympics. I mean, wouldn't you?
- [47:48]
A
No.
- [47:49]
B
Well, you have to think about the fact not every Olympian there like is about is winning gold. In fact, most aren't.
- [47:55]
A
Right. But most of them are young, are.
- [47:57]
B
In the prime of their life, surrounded by other fit youngsters.
- [48:02]
A
The village does foster like a sense of community. I believe there are probably like gatherings.
- [48:07]
B
Yeah.
- [48:08]
A
And then you also just feel like you're back in college, Right. You're in like this little room with a little bed and it makes you want to do like crazy things.
- [48:13]
B
See them like at the cafeteria. Oh, how'd you play today?
- [48:16]
A
And so I remember a couple of years ago it was a story that the Olympic Village started giving out condoms just to like promote sex safety, which is always good.
- [48:23]
B
And now they've already run out after a report from Italian outlet Le Stampa said the free condoms available to athletes at the village ran out in just three days.
- [48:32]
A
Well, it sounds like an amazing marketing opportunity for a Trojan or a Ky or, like, some, you know, sexual wellness brand.
- [48:39]
B
Bampa said we can confirm that condom supplies in the Olympic villages were temporarily depleted due to higher than anticipated demand. Additional supplies are being delivered and will be distributed across all villages between today and Monday. They will be continuously replenished until the end of the Games to. To ensure continued availability.
- [48:54]
A
I'm curious about the means, like, how do you go about getting one? Like, do you have to go to, like, your ra.
- [49:01]
B
Or maybe they're in the bathroom, like, with the tampons. Yeah.
- [49:05]
A
Maybe they're just, like, in your room. Maybe you get, like, a gift bathroom basket.
- [49:07]
B
Yeah, but it's like, some people might use 0 and other people might use 20.
- [49:10]
A
There's definitely, like, a commissary at the Olympic village where, like, if you need toothbrush, toothpaste, like, and condoms.
- [49:16]
B
And they're free.
- [49:17]
A
Yeah. Like a canteen, if you will, snacks.
- [49:19]
B
Not to account for, like, the people who brought their own.
- [49:22]
A
I just feel like if you brought your own condom to the Olympics, like, you're not winning gold. Like, you. You're so not making.
- [49:26]
B
No, you're not here for the right reasons.
- [49:28]
A
You're just here, like, to have fun, and that's great, too.
- [49:30]
B
No, but, like, as you should. Yeah. Once in a lifetime.
- [49:34]
A
Thousand percent.
- [49:35]
B
Like we said, you're probably not winning gold. You might as well have a great, memorable time with your fellow Olympians. You know, it's really like a community. Nobody. Nobody's knows what they're going through other than them.
- [49:45]
A
You know, Utah won another medal silver, Queenie.
- [49:48]
B
And she was, like, training with someone.
- [49:50]
A
Oh, yeah. You saw that. She was training with the American. So there is an American. I told you about him. Jordan Stoles. He's, like, widely considered, like, the greatest speed skater of our time, like, maybe ever. He's won all the gold. He keeps breaking the records. Everybody wants to kill him. Like, all the other. They just can't stand him. Like, he's so fast. He's literally my Michael Phelps. And then they caught a really funny moment where, like, Utah and him were training together, because it's like, the two greats.
- [50:10]
B
The two greats.
- [50:12]
A
Yeah. They see one another.
- [50:13]
B
Yeah.
- [50:13]
A
And, like, he is so famous in the Netherlands. That's what they were saying, because speed skating is not really a huge sport. I had never heard of him. So, like, the Michael Phelps, except nobody's heard of him in the Netherlands. He's so famous. They call him the Jet Cute So like him and you two definitely know each other from being like Dutch pop stars.
- [50:30]
B
And maybe like he's friends with Jay week.
- [50:32]
A
Hopefully he doesn't give Jake vibes.
- [50:34]
B
Maybe he has a lady love.
- [50:36]
A
He lives on like a rural farm in Wisconsin and he like skates on his pond. He definitely does not like get along well with Jake.
- [50:41]
B
You never know. You can't put Jake in a box. Are you ready for our fifth and final story?
- [50:47]
A
I am a little. Oh no, I'm not. Oh my God. I've like literally forgotten what we're here to do.
- [50:52]
B
I know.
- [50:52]
A
Which is to raise funds for our future business. Today's episode is brought to you by. Hi. Hiya. Everyone is talking about New Year's resolutions, getting your supplement game, your vitamin game down. But something that could really impact your family for decades is your kids health. So something that might keep you up at night as a parent is that our kids might be the first generation growing up on Ultr processed foods. And what are the long term effects? We're only beginning to understand them. So while everyone else is promising to hit the Gym more in 2026, why don't you focus on something that will actually stick, which is better nutrition for your, your kids. And that's why Haya exists, to give parents a real solution in a market flooded with products that prioritize candy, like appeal over actual nutrition and ingredients. So some kids vitamins on the market today contain up to 7 grams of sugar per serving. They are stuffed with artificial additives and petroleum based dyes. Haya has taken the total opposite approach. Zero sugar, no gummy junk, just clean nutrition. But the crazy thing is that kids actually love them. The taste, the experience, the bottle. My niece Michaela is obsessed with them.

Our fifth and final story. Aforementioned Brooks Nader.
- [54:57]
A
Her B day party.
- [54:57]
B
Her B day party. And she got food poisoning on the private jet en route to her 29th birthday celebrations.
- [55:04]
A
I feel like we can add to the list of like things I talk about all the times, the fact that I'm on Brooke Snyder's clothes close friends story and I don't know like how I got there. I'm so grateful to be there. I will never snitch. Like it's just such a. When you think like she lives this fabulous life, it's like that 10x. But I did see she put, she shared this but like a few days before she posted on her close friend story these like videos of her unwell on a plane. And I was like, oh my God, what happened? Turns out it was just little food poisoning.
- [55:27]
B
That's what she said. Bad sushi.
- [55:28]
A
You can't keep a good girl down.
- [55:29]
B
I think that's what you say when it's not bad sushi.
- [55:32]
A
You think it's like another GLP1 induced episode?
- [55:34]
B
I do.
- [55:35]
A
Yeah. She's so open on the show that like you can't. We like, you can't pull the wool.
- [55:38]
B
Over like literally has anyone who's ever said, ugh, bad sushi, like actually had bad sushi and the thing she feigned on the plane, the ambulance had to come.
- [55:47]
A
She's on a GLP1 so we know she like isn't eating that much sushi. So even if it was like one piece, it's not enough to like call an ambulance.
- [55:53]
B
Yeah. And like she probably, she's always with her sisters and she's the only One ride. Bad sushi. You're poking a little bit. She's on the floor. But, like, I. I think whatever is going on, like, Brooks is entitled to her privacy. But, like, bad sushi. That's literally, like. Like a. A cliche at this point.
- [56:07]
A
Her birthday party looked so fun. It's very rare that I see something, and I, like, wish that I was there Sometimes I'm, like, looking at stuff. I'm like, I know that wasn't fun. I saw this party, and I'm like, that looks so fun. Like, it was just, like, her really, like, her actual friends and, like, a ton of her family. Of course, Trinity from the show was there from Louisiana.
- [56:23]
B
Where's Trinity?
- [56:24]
A
And she rented this enormous boat. They all stayed there and just, like, partied the whole weekend. Swam, like St. Bart's so fun.
- [56:31]
B
Yeah.
- [56:31]
A
But, like, they didn't go on. It didn't look like they ever left the boat.
- [56:34]
B
No, they went to Laurit.
- [56:35]
A
Oh, they did. Okay.
- [56:36]
B
She's, like, swirling. Oh, yeah.
- [56:37]
A
I saw them, like, bringing bottles in a motorcycle.
- [56:41]
B
But, yeah, they got a boat. And I just can't believe that she got off the plane into an ambulance and then, like, partied hard for her birthday.
- [56:47]
A
One thing I know about Brooks Nader is, like, she works hard, plays hard.
- [56:51]
B
Yes.
- [56:51]
A
It's not just a facade. Like, they are so busy all the time. She's, like, literally the biggest model. She's doing campaigns for everyone and everyone, everything. And every weekend, she's going to Aspen, she's going to Malibu, she's going St. Barts. Like, she does not stop. I guess it's like, when you're 28, that's what you do.
- [57:05]
B
Right. But also, maybe that's also why she ended up on the floor of the plane.
- [57:08]
A
Yeah. You know, she's not putting Brooks first.
- [57:11]
B
She needs, like, a little rnr. Yeah.
- [57:14]
A
I'm worried about her.
- [57:15]
B
Yeah. But, like, I know she's, like, happy and fulfilled, and, like, I'm not worried. Like, I just, like, I'm worried about her, like, physical.
- [57:21]
A
Yeah.
- [57:21]
B
Being.
- [57:22]
A
Yeah.
- [57:22]
B
She needs, like, a massage. Mm. And, like, a nap.
- [57:27]
A
Well, I feel like she gets massages a lot.
- [57:29]
B
Yeah.
- [57:29]
A
That's what I learned from the show.
- [57:30]
B
Yeah. But they're probably, like, lymphatic purposeful massages.
- [57:33]
A
No, it looked like very peaceful and relaxing, and she was on her belly.
- [57:35]
B
Okay. Okay. And a nap. Don't forget the nap.
- [57:39]
A
Don't forget that.
- [57:39]
B
Oh, you know what? Today is my anniversary.
- [57:42]
A
I was thinking when I said the date earlier that it sounded like a something Like a birthday.
- [57:46]
B
It's a very busy week for me, like in my life. Between Valentine's and her birthday and anniversary. And today's my anniversary with my husband. We're celebrating. Celebrating seven years of marriage.
- [57:55]
A
Happy birthday to you.
- [57:56]
B
Happy birthday.
- [57:57]
A
Anniversary.
- [57:57]
B
Happy birthday to our marriage. Beautiful.
- [57:59]
A
And a beautiful marriage. It is.
- [58:01]
B
It's the day our marriage was born.
- [58:03]
A
Well, today is also, besides obviously being your anniversary, which is huge. It's also Tuesday, which means it's Dear Toasters day, our weekly advice segment. So every Tuesday, Jack and I do a segment called Dear Toasters where our listeners write in if they ever find themselves in a bit of a pickle and we try to help them in, I would say a sort of old Jewish mom type of way. Like that's the kind of advice you're gonna get here. If you're looking for like softball. We're. We're here to tell you the truth.
- [58:24]
B
No.
- [58:24]
A
So every week, three submissions. If you ever want to write in, you can send us an email, dear toasters gmail.com or head over to our website, the toast podcast dot com. You can scroll down, there's a little submission box. You can also buy merch. Like you can do whatever you want. Our website, you can catch up on episodes. Our website's like kind of. Okay.
- [58:39]
B
And our new business will be on our website.
- [58:41]
A
No, our new business is actually separate from this.
- [58:43]
B
From our website.
- [58:44]
A
Yeah, well, we'll need a separate website.
- [58:47]
B
And they won't ever link. There won't be a link for.
- [58:50]
A
Maybe there will be one.
- [58:51]
B
Link. Link. Okay.
- [58:53]
A
We obviously have like a lot of work to do on our project. Cuz like we're still working on little things like that.
- [58:58]
B
Yeah, I can understand why it wouldn't be on our website.
- [59:01]
A
Yeah. But I don't know, we get so much traffic on our website that you would.
- [59:04]
B
You want traffic to the new business.
- [59:06]
A
Right, Right. Just an idea. All right, first up, we'll.
- [59:12]
B
We'll brainstorm.
- [59:12]
A
Hey, Jackson. Turdy. I need to know if this is a nice gesture from my ex fiance's sister or it's just extremely odd. Me and my ex fiance broke up several years ago. I have since remarried. Three years ago I got remarried and I'm pregnant. I randomly got a $1 venmo from my ex fiance's sister that said hope it's born on the 15th. It's worth noting she doesn't have social media. The last time we texted was two years ago. Is this weird? Should I say something back?
- [59:36]
B
That is weird.
- [59:37]
A
It is weird. I Need to know more about the sister. Like, is she a weird girl?
- [59:41]
B
She sounds like crazy.
- [59:44]
A
Yeah, no, she sounds like, like this is something like, like someone who's like a little off would do. So that's why I said I like need to know more about her personality.
- [59:52]
B
I don't. Yeah, I. I don't. I think it's just a weird.
- [59:55]
A
I wouldn't respond.
- [59:55]
B
What's the 15th even mean?
- [59:57]
A
Like, maybe it's like a bet.
- [59:59]
B
Maybe it's like the Ides of March. No, it's really weird, but also like, do you want to engage with this person or not? Do you like this person and you like, this is stifling further relations and you want to be like, hey, what'd you mean? But like, if you're never going to see this person again, like, I, I just could.
- [60:14]
A
Yeah.
- [60:15]
B
I guess it's hard for people to just like actually ignore things.
- [60:17]
A
Especially when you're pregnant. You're like low key, really bored. Especially when it's your first pregnancy. Like there's quite literally nothing to do when you're pregnant with your first baby.
- [60:24]
B
Yeah.
- [60:25]
A
I can do any of the things from your old life and like your new life hasn't started yet.
- [60:28]
B
I would just ignore it because of course, because sounds like I'm like something that interests.
- [60:33]
A
No, I'm also like scared. Like I wouldn't involve myself with a crazy person.
- [60:36]
B
And I feel like if you follow it up, it's just giving like a still foot in that world.
- [60:40]
A
Yeah. It's an ex fiance. It's like kind of a big deal.
- [60:42]
B
You sister.
- [60:43]
A
Yeah, No, I know, but it's not like sister. Yeah. Like if you saw like a person being crazy on the street, like you wouldn't go engage with them. Right. So Venmo, like, she's acting crazy. Like, don't engage.
- [60:55]
B
Yeah, I wouldn't.
- [60:56]
A
And then it's like a step back into your old life.
- [60:57]
B
Yeah. Personally, like I would not go backwards.
- [61:01]
A
In that, but this is probably very jarring for you to receive the notification. And I'm sorry that you have to deal with that while being pregnant.
- [61:06]
B
Yeah.
- [61:06]
A
Because it's weird.
- [61:07]
B
Yeah.
- [61:08]
A
But you'll be okay.
- [61:08]
B
Okay?
- [61:09]
A
You'll be fine.
- [61:09]
B
You're like pregnant with your new man.
- [61:11]
A
Right, Right. Living. Well, she's obviously like stalking Venmo. I don't even. The crazy thing, the crazy thing is that she doesn't even know how you. She doesn't know how this girl knows she's pregnant. Cuz she has no social media and you got a dollar don't spend it all in one place. All right. Hey, girlies. One night, my boyfriend and I were so drunk, and I was on my period. This is, like, much more of an unburdened myself, but I had to pick it just to make you uncomfortable. Hey, girlies. One night, my boyfriend and I were so drunk, and I was on my period period. We were trying to have sex, so I pulled out my tampon, and I completely slapped my boyfriend in the face with the tampon. What the hell do I do? Do we bring it up? Forget it ever happened? I think that you should go get treatment. Like, you should never drink again. Like, this is insane.
- [61:48]
B
And was it intentional?
- [61:50]
A
No.
- [61:50]
B
Oh, accidental.
- [61:51]
A
You know, a tampon on a string, it kind of has, like, a mind of its own.
- [61:54]
B
Okay. Okay.
- [61:55]
A
Especially one that's soiled. It's, like, bogged down.
- [61:57]
B
I think if he doesn't bring it up and he's your boyfriend, it's not like, a guy that you like, and now it's like, should I bring it up? How do we move to forward? If he wants to discuss it, he can bring it to you.
- [62:06]
A
Yeah, it's on him.
- [62:07]
B
Otherwise, we can move forward.
- [62:08]
A
Also, I think, like, the type of man who's, like, ripping out tampons and, like, having period sex, like, isn't that precious about it?
- [62:14]
B
Yeah, I think they're less precious about it than we are. That's like anything else.
- [62:18]
A
No, I actually think some men are very precious about it and some aren't. Like, he was down.
- [62:21]
B
No, he was down. Yeah, he was down to get dirty, literally. I think it's actually fine. It's just something that you would feel funny about. And if he doesn't bring it up, I will. Would never.
- [62:30]
A
Yeah. Funny enough, it's, like, worse for the person who slapped.
- [62:34]
B
Yeah.
- [62:34]
A
Not the person who got.
- [62:35]
B
That's like, a lot of things where it's, like, just, like, more like, personal to you. So. Yeah, if he doesn't want to talk about it, I would not talk about it. Pretend like you forgot you were so.
- [62:45]
A
Drunk and just like, let's hope he was so drunk.
- [62:48]
B
Yeah. Or like, that happens all the time, you know?
- [62:51]
A
Does it?
- [62:52]
B
He doesn't know that out to him. Like, no. Like, yeah, that's what happens when you have peri sex. You get hit in the face of the tampon. Oh, you can't have period sex. Otherwise.
- [63:00]
A
Thank you. I actually wanted to speak directly to our audience, because I was reading through submissions this morning, and a lot of them, like, write to us about, like, Sex. And this is, like, this is a fine example, but a lot of it is, like, a little bit more mechanical and, like, intimate, and I just feel like this is the wrong show. Like, we are sisters. Like, there's only so much, like, we can talk about and, like, give advice on without, like, being icky. Like, spend a lot of time at your house. And, like, it's just. It's, like, weird. You know, it gives this, like, don't look at me.
- [63:26]
B
So I'm not saying. No, no, you. I feel like you misunderstood what I was saying. I feel like we have to just convince this guy that that's what happens.
- [63:35]
A
Yes. I'm talking. I'm not talking about the submission anymore. I was wanting to talk to the listeners because I read a lot.
- [63:39]
B
Okay.
- [63:39]
A
This morning, and sometimes they were, like, looking for, like, intimacy advice, and it's like, try. Girls got to eat. You know? Like, try. Like, that's just not the type of show we.
- [63:47]
B
We run.
- [63:48]
A
Yeah.
- [63:48]
B
We can do a lot here.
- [63:49]
A
No. And, like, there's so many benefits to doing a show with your sister. Like, you know, we're bound for life. We have so many inside jokes, like, family memories to sort of tell on this.
- [63:57]
B
I mean, we can go on and we're never going to split up. Yeah.
- [64:00]
A
Like, there's so many benefits. And they're like, a couple, like, maybe two drawbacks. And one of them is like, we really can't talk about sex.
- [64:05]
B
Yeah. And that has to be okay with you guys.
- [64:07]
A
Yeah. And there's so many shows for that. They're always like, girls talking about sex on podcasts.
- [64:11]
B
Yeah.
- [64:11]
A
Yeah. And just not this one.
- [64:13]
B
Yeah.
- [64:13]
A
All right, ready? Dear toasters, I need help because I genuinely don't know if I'm being dramatic or if my life has turned into a psychological thriller. I'm 27. I love how drama everyone is.
- [64:22]
B
I'm 27, so drama.
- [64:24]
A
And I've been casually dating a guy who's 29 for three months. Nothing official, but we talk every day. We see each other a couple times a week, and he refers to me as his girl to his friends.
- [64:31]
B
Red flag already he has multiple girls. He can't keep your guy's name apart.
- [64:35]
A
Right. Anyway, I know. It's just like, I'm your girlfriend. Like, people who are precious about saying girlfriend. Like, grow the up. Oh, no.
- [64:40]
B
I think, like, saying, like, that's my girl is cute.
- [64:43]
A
Okay. He recently told me he was going out of town for work for a week. Cool. No big deal. Fast forward two days later. I'm Scrolling Instagram. I see a girl that I very vaguely recognize from his tagged photos post a group pic at a bachelorette party in Miami. He's there in the background wearing a sash that says bride's bestie. I spiral. Obviously I don't say anything because I want more information. Later that night, he facetimes me from his hotel. I casually ask how the work trip is going. He says, it's exhausting. It's mostly just been meetings. He's an absolute peon. Besides this one thing. Please.
- [65:11]
B
On a bachelorette party.
- [65:12]
A
And he's lying to you, saying that it's. And she called him now knowing. And he said, how's the work trip? And he's like, it's great.
- [65:16]
B
Just be. Why is he lying to you? And what is having. That's my girl. Have to do anything with it.
- [65:20]
A
So she thought that was like a red flag about him already. And now she thinks he's gay because.
- [65:25]
B
He was on the bachelorette as bride's bestie. Oh, that is gay.
- [65:28]
A
It's more likely that he is gay if he is the bride's bestie. Because like, a girl getting married doesn't have a straight man best friend.
- [65:36]
B
No. That you invite on the bachelorette. You only invite a gay man on the Bachelor. You don't invite a straight man on the Bachelor.
- [65:42]
A
They're like, it's literally illegal.
- [65:43]
B
It's the antithesis of a bachelor. Lorette.
- [65:46]
A
Yeah. So obviously, like, the lying is a huge red flag. But the fact that he.
- [65:49]
B
I didn't even think of that.
- [65:51]
A
Yeah, no, it literally.
- [65:52]
B
Right. Like, was that the last thing she said, is he gay? Has she realized this? Yeah, she said, is he gay?
- [65:58]
A
Yeah.
- [66:00]
B
Yeah.
- [66:01]
A
It's giving gay. I feel like a lot of times I have to like.
- [66:04]
B
Well, I'm so blinded by the deceit.
- [66:07]
A
Yes.
- [66:07]
B
He's the big gay.
- [66:08]
A
And I think a lot of times, like, I have to jump through hoops to get to the gay, but it seems like the gay is just surface level.
- [66:14]
B
Yeah. Or at least he's gay to her.
- [66:16]
A
Is there a world in which a straight man is a bride's best friend on a bachelorette party? No.
- [66:21]
B
No. And certainly not the only straight man on the bachelorette party.
- [66:25]
A
U.N. sister bride's bestie. Okay.
- [66:28]
B
You would know. You would say it's his sister. And if you don't know who his sister is and you're not dating and maybe he's your gay best friend.
- [66:35]
A
A cousin.
- [66:36]
B
You didn't even know. Cousin Bright's best friend and still your straight male Cousin is not. He's invited on the groom's party. Get to know the groom. Yeah.
- [66:44]
A
No, but the fact that he feels the need to lie about it.
- [66:46]
B
Brother's not invited on your bachelorette party.
- [66:48]
A
Right, Right. The fact that he needs to lie about it is giving closet.
- [66:52]
B
Yeah. And what have the last three months been like?
- [66:55]
A
They're seeing each other. Like, they see each other a couple of times a week. They talk every day. He refers to me as his girl, which she thought was a red flag of.
- [67:04]
B
In a sexual nature.
- [67:06]
A
You guys kiss. Oh, maybe you just, like, misunderstood the situation.
- [67:12]
B
You need to just be straightforward. But I also don't want to forget about the deceit. Like, he's lying to you.
- [67:18]
A
This is so not your guy. This is not your guy.
- [67:20]
B
This is not your guy. But I'm now curious. When he comes home, you sit him down across the table and say, what were you doing on a bachelorette party? Like, I need explanations, but your bags are packed. And not that you had bags there, because you don't even sleep over there.
- [67:33]
A
Cause you're just friends. But if he was her gay best friend, like, why would he have lied? The lying element makes it seem he.
- [67:43]
B
Doesn'T want her to know that he has other best friends.
- [67:45]
A
Jealous?
- [67:46]
B
No. I'm sorry. This is so off.
- [67:48]
A
Yeah. Also, in this day and age, like, how do people really think that they can get away with lies like this?

B
What if he went on a work trip and this girl that he knows happens to be having her bachelorette party?
- [68:01]
A
What if he went on a work trip and he goes, like, out for cocktails with a guy, and then at a bar, they run into the girl.
- [68:08]
B
That he knows, and he's just on.
- [68:09]
A
Her workshop party and it was a girl that he knew.
- [68:11]
B
Yeah. And they hysterically put a bride's bestie sash on him.
- [68:14]
A
It is entirely possible that he is on a work trip.
- [68:17]
B
Where was the trip? There are only a couple places that would be for a bachelorette party and a work trip.

A
Miami. Could be both. They have, like, lots of conventions. What does he do?
- [68:26]
B
Nashville, Scottsdale. Jail. Yeah. Scott's not the Bahamas.

A
He's not on a work trip in the Bahamas. If he's in Columbus, like, we need to know. That's a work trip.
- [68:37]
B
That's a work trip.

A
Be like, oh, my God, I'm dying. How do you know Lydia? Or whatever.
- [68:44]
B
Yeah. Be like.
- [68:45]
A
And also just ask why we have to lie.
- [68:48]
B
What is the location. It's so important that we use context clues.
- [68:52]
A
But still just ask. Ask.
- [68:55]
