A
Good morning, Millennials, and welcome back to the toast and Happy Friday. That really feels like a Friday. Because the theme of today is leisure. We had a leisurely morning. We took ourselves out to breakfast. We're recording at 1:20. We never do this.
- [00:15]
B
Turdy's not even being honest. And we're not being honest by saying, good morning, Millennials.
- [00:19]
A
It's so true.
- [00:20]
B
It is 1:30. We never recorded this late. This episode's not coming out in the morning. But we've actually been very busy this morning. We didn't actually just wake up and say, screw sisterhood, screw swirly.
- [00:29]
A
Speak for yourself. I did. I woke up this morning and I said, screw sisterhood.
- [00:33]
B
Literally never done that. We had work stuff this morning, which pushed us back to record late, which was a choice choice. But like, to act like we actually have had a leash in the morning when we're seriously broke down.
- [00:44]
A
So true.
- [00:44]
B
We're so broke down we couldn't do video, even though we maybe should have because we look actually really cute. We're matching.
- [00:49]
A
We're in pajamas. But today's episode is audio only, so if you're searching YouTube, I apologize. But not only do we look disgusting in a very cute sort of way, but we also have Jizno on Sunday. And like, I kind of need to preserve my on camera flair and like my. My glamorous celebrity Gina Sequoia for this World is coming to see us Sunday at the Hard Rock Live, Seminole, Fort Lauderdale. It has like a thousand names. Hard Rock Live, Seminole, Hollywood Casino, Fort Lauderdale. Like, I don't even know. It's Hollywood. Hollywood, Fort Lauderdale, Florida, comma, what county, usa.
- [01:25]
B
Yeah, Broward or Miami Dade.
- [01:28]
A
That's the thing. We don't even know where we're going on Sunday, but we're so excited. So this episode is giving real Friday energy because there's no video and we're just kind of relax, you know, we're in our jammies.
- [01:38]
B
We are. We're in matching robes. Yeah, we would be cute for video. But let's just keep talking about how cute we are and how much you guys are missing out.
- [01:45]
A
I love.
- [01:45]
B
We're already starting with like so many excuses, like so much justification.
- [01:50]
A
This Friday. I feel like everybody just starts with like lies and excuses.
- [01:53]
B
Lies, lies, lies.
- [01:58]
A
I think we harmonized.
- [01:59]
B
I think we might have.
- [02:01]
A
I think we might have.
- [02:02]
B
So it's very much a Friday over here.
- [02:04]
A
Oh, we are in person together. If you guys flinger maybe aren't noticing, Jack and I are both in Florida, cuz obviously I headed down last night for our show on Sunday. Thought I'd spend a couple of days with my family. Good decision, honestly, on all parts. And Ben, of course, I think I told everyone this yesterday. Ben, of course, was flying down.
- [02:20]
B
So crazy.
- [02:21]
A
Ben was flying down later than us. He flew down this morning and at like 8 o'clock I texted him. I knew his flight was early in the morning. I wasn't sure when. I'm like, hey, are you up? Are you at the airport? He missed his flight and it's funny that he didn't text me because he knew what I was going to say. When we travel together, this man, like torments me. He mocks me with like, how prepared I am. The fact that I insist. I don't pre board, obviously, but the second my boarding group is eligible, like, I'm the first on that line. Like, I take it really seriously for a multitude of reasons. One, I'm like very anal. Yes. Two, I want to make sure I have enough overhead bin space because I never check a bag. But I'm a very anal flyer. And he's so lax. He wouldn't mind being the last person on the flight. Like, gate checking, okay? To me, gate checking is like Armageddon. It's the worst thing that could ever happen to me for a Ben, it's like free checked bag. Like, he's so crazy. So I missed his fight. He didn't want to tell me because he makes fun of me all the time. Meanwhile, have I ever missed a flight in my entire life?
- [03:08]
B
Yeah. No.
- [03:09]
A
No. So I don't know where he is. I. I think he's on his way. Ben is supposed to be spending the weekend with us here too. But it did feel good. Like, obviously I wasn't happy that my husband missed his flight, but it felt really good to. I know I'm right, but like for it to be so obvious to him. Like, think of all the times you've. Literally every time we travel, we fight because he's like, could we just sit in the lounge a little bit longer? No, no.
- [03:31]
B
It feels good to have a lesson learned the hard way.
- [03:33]
A
Yeah. And I don't have to be there for it. You know, it's. By the way, it's so true.
- [03:36]
B
As someone who'll never first get stagecoach of 2019, when our whole family went to Stagecoach together, I don't know why I can't say stage coach.
- [03:43]
A
The thing about stage coach, there is one flight a day from New York to Palm Springs. It's so hard to get to correct.
- [03:48]
B
And we Were all going together in the car. We're all loaded up in the suv and we're meeting at Claudia and Ben's apartment because they live closest, like, to the airport, whatever. And we're all in the car, bags are packed, and Ben's not out of the apartment yet. And he's in the shower upstairs.
- [04:01]
A
And not only was it, like, such a stressful time, but we also had a treacherous journey to the airport. We, like, took side streets. It was so much traffic.
- [04:08]
B
So much traffic.
- [04:09]
A
So Ben's in the front seat, like, knowing everybody in the back of the car wants to kill him.
- [04:12]
B
All checking luggage. And we got there and they, they couldn't guarantee that our luggage would get on the flight. It might have to get on the next one. So the entire time on the plane, we don't know if our luggage, with all of our Luke's has made it onto the plane. And it's like, if it hasn't. And we have to go back to the Palm beach airport tomorrow to get our luggage. But we have one day without anything. Very stressful. Thankfully, our luggage did make it. But I just want to say, so I can attest to the fact that Ben is horrible, not a timely traveler.
- [04:40]
A
So then he called me, like, 20 minutes later. He's like, in the airport, you know, floundering, doing, wasting time and like, his day. And I, I would have felt bad for him, except, like you said, it was a lesson that really needed to be learned. But the day just like, kept coming for him. He's like, I went to Starbucks. I bought myself like one of those spinach feta, egg white wrap things. I put it in a bag, and I'm walking through the airport, and the bag has a huge hole at the bottom of it. And, like, my breakfast spills out onto the floor. I'm like, of course I have sympathy. You know when you have those days, like, nothing go right and then your breakfast hits the floor. Seriously, I was so glad. Like, it. It was important.
- [05:09]
B
Bag was a paid actor.
- [05:10]
A
It was important that he experienced this completely on his own. Like, he couldn't blame anyone. Like, he set his own alarm. Because I wake up, we're going to the airport. Okay, let's air flights at 8. I'm like, let's wake up at 5:30. We'll leave here at 6. He thinks that's so crazy. I would love to know what time he woke up.
- [05:24]
B
Right.
- [05:24]
A
You know?
- [05:24]
B
Right.
- [05:25]
A
Because I feel so validated and my measures are definitely extreme. But better safe than sorry. Of course.
- [05:30]
B
Better safe than Sorry. So.
- [05:31]
A
Yes.
- [05:32]
B
Did.
- [05:32]
A
Was there 30 minutes that we had nothing to do in the airport and we could have slept, technically. Did we miss our flight? No.
- [05:38]
B
Did he? Yes, he did.
- [05:40]
A
So I just feel good. And that's. It's a win for naggy wives everywhere. Honestly.
- [05:45]
B
It really is.
- [05:45]
A
I think there are relationships where the. Not a lot, but sometimes, like, the man is the more anal one about flying. But usually it's like the women. Timely check on the. The getting to the gate, making sure your gate exists before you even get a snack at the airport. So this was a win for us ladies.
- [06:01]
B
Yeah, you have to make sure your gate exists. I guess I am like, the more anal one in our relationship because Zach is such a late person. Like, yeah, he's slow. Perpetually late slow. Seriously, it pains me, but I don't identify as, like, being, like, I'm not crazy about it, but I'm pretty nuts. I feel like I'm, like, so crazy that actually my normal. What I think is normal is actually what other people would consider crazy.
- [06:21]
A
Now I've gotten to a point in my life, when I get home from work, my husband says, like, what did you tell everyone about me today?
- [06:27]
B
Okay.
- [06:28]
A
And so I. I think he could probably guess that I would have told this story, but I know the toasters are going to DM him being like, so glad you missed your flight. He's gonna be like, what did you say? And he wanted me to tell everyone, and I forgot to. So this is an important time that the last couple of days, he has brushed his teeth at night because I, like, railed on him for not brushing his teeth at night. And he's like, people are gonna think I'm disgusting. I'm like, good, then no one will want to come near you. But he did want me to let everyone know, like, he's working on it, and he's really. He. And it was important for him to say this. And I agree. He's a very clean, hygienically, like, his body, not like, you know, his laundry, but, like, he showers at least twice a day. Like, he's very. He's not a dirty person. So he doesn't smell. He wants everyone to know that. And he has been brushing his teeth twice a day.
- [07:08]
B
That's so great. And this is what happens when you bring back shame, accountability. People start acting, right. Oh, I don't want people to think I don't brush my teeth. So let me brush my teeth so I can let them know.
- [07:17]
A
Right? Right. So feel free to send Ben hate Mail. No, I'm kidding.
- [07:22]
B
But then please don't because it like, then we can't have the fun that we have knowing that it might reach him. That's no fun.
- [07:28]
A
You don't tell him because then like things like this might not happen anymore.
- [07:31]
B
Yeah. Like it's, it's just never the same. Like when you get a message, they were talking about your spinach on the floor and they're glad you missed your flight. Like it just doesn't hit the same. It doesn't as having the conversation.
- [07:40]
A
And like Ben took a huge financial hit too to get on another flight because the next flight was at 7pm and he was like, no, sweet to buy another ticket. So like him just being hit, like, you know, breakfast finances. Like, it's a really, really well rounded punishment and I'm glad about it.
- [07:53]
B
And I was supposed to do good guys today.
- [07:55]
A
Yes. Jackie was recording Good guys. They've been talking about it. They're so excited. And now it had to be postponed a couple of days.
- [08:00]
B
Yeah.
- [08:00]
A
So you could blame that on Ben too, if we're making a list.
- [08:03]
B
If you were really excited to hear me, I'm good guys, which I was. I wonder what. I love going on other people's podcasts because then like the burden is on them.
- [08:10]
A
You have to no work to like.
- [08:11]
B
You know, think about what they want to talk to me about. Like what do they want to talk to me about?
- [08:15]
A
I feel like you and Josh always end up just like going into parent because that's Zach. Josh is like a really hands on dad. So I feel like talk about like.
- [08:22]
B
The culture for kids, like what the kids are watching, playing, doing. For sure.
- [08:26]
A
Yeah. And then Ben now like can participate a little bit. So it'll be interesting to see how the pregnancy announcement will impact the dynamic of the good guys. Plus Jacks.
- [08:33]
B
Oh, for sure. Everybody's on the edge of their seats.
- [08:35]
A
Everybody's on the edge of their seats.
- [08:37]
B
Speaking of podcast, the redhead dropped yesterday. Like all the drama. Will it drop on the first day Thursday of the month? Will it not? I actually surprised myself and I got it up on the first Thursday. And such a great episode. Let me tell you, the book, like, you don't have to read it if you don't think you would like it, but you should listen to the episode because it was so fucking funny. And we ranked our top three books of the year, the official Redheads ranking, Editor's choice, reader's choice, your top three.
- [08:58]
A
Books of the year that were read on the Redheads or all Books.
- [09:00]
B
So. Because this year, very few of us read books outside of the redheads. We only did redheads.
- [09:05]
A
Are you doing your bracket again?
- [09:07]
B
Tip. That's. That's redheads madness. But typically do that in March. We supposed to.
- [09:11]
A
Okay, okay.
- [09:11]
B
But typically we do top three redheads books of the year and top three general. General. But we didn't read enough general this year to be able to do two separate lists. So it was just redheads.
- [09:20]
A
Got it. I actually made a big dent in my redheads book, God of the Woods. I've been, like, slow reading it, but I had a flight yesterday, so I. I blew through. I would say, like, 10 or 15%. You know, I was being slow, and it's a long book, and, like, I kept taking breaks, and I'm enjoying it.
- [09:35]
B
Okay, good.
- [09:35]
A
So it's good. Yeah. Should we dive in? Like, the episode is delayed enough? Like, let's just keep dilly dallying.
- [09:41]
B
Oh, sure. Dive into what's gonna be yesterday's episode.
- [09:45]
A
Yesterday's stories were stronger than expected. That's how you describe the stories. Describe these for me. Rng. Really not good.
- [09:52]
B
Dnpm.
- [09:54]
A
Dnpm.
- [09:57]
B
Yeah.
- [09:58]
A
Deez nuts.
- [10:00]
B
You can guess this. If you can guess this, like, we actually can hang up our hats and, like, retire.
- [10:06]
A
Okay. By the way, if I guess it, let's end the episode right here.
- [10:08]
B
Like, okay, that's so. No, if you guess it, read all the ads and then we'll end the episode.
- [10:12]
A
Okay, hold on. I need to seriously just write down DN pm. I'm never gonna. Like, I have not even a clue. One of these letters.
- [10:21]
B
Put yourself in my shoes.
- [10:23]
A
Yeah.
- [10:24]
B
What was I saying about the stories before we recorded? How do I speak? And that's all I'm gonna leave it at.
- [10:34]
A
I have no idea.
- [10:35]
B
G. I was really.
- [10:36]
A
Dnpm. It looks like some. Like, when a company goes public and they have, like, a.
- [10:39]
B
Their ticker.
- [10:40]
A
Yeah. Yeah. DN pm. This do not pass muster. Oh, my God. I got it. Oh, my God. We have to end the episode.
- [10:53]
B
We have to end the.
- [10:54]
A
It will be our shortest. It'll be 11 minutes.
- [10:56]
B
Wait, but as in the ads, like, 15 minutes.
- [10:58]
A
Oh, my God. That is so funny. D. Guys, sound off in the comments. Did you guess that when Jackie said it? Because, like, it is top of mind for everyone.
- [11:06]
B
These stories do not pass muster.
- [11:09]
A

Everyone I know in New York rents. It's like a real renters type of city. And a lot of them have just recently gotten into the built card and they're so and a lot of them are like newly married. So they opened up like a joint credit card. Like they were really excited. And there's so many different ways to redeem your points.

A
Do you hear me?
- [15:50]

- [16:21]
B
I spent the time like trying to make muster out of the stories and I think that I have, you know.
- [16:26]
A
Pregnancy is interesting and I've, I've been like overweight most of my life. So not a lot of like the weight gaining stuff or like the lack of movement has shocked me. This is a state of life I'm, you know, comfortable in. The thing that has shocked me most is I've actually never until recently gotten out of breath while eating. That's really crazy.
- [16:44]
B
Have you seen those like die diagrams of how a pregnant Woman's body changes and how all of your organs compressed.

A
I don't know. You sold it like so well.
- [17:04]
B
No, I'm telling you, I got the stories in a place that they are musterful.
- [17:07]
A
Let's hear it, Claudia.
- [17:08]
B
That's musterful. A bit of friendship news. Martha Stewart is fangirling over beautiful Rihanna and her very handsome Aesop Rocky at the Shoe Oscars.
- [17:19]
A
Yeah, it's a big week for footwear.
- [17:21]
B
So the Footwear News Achievement Awards, the fnna fnaa, sometimes known as why was Martha There? Sometimes known as the Shoe Oscars took place this week only sometimes. I mean, is there any second?
- [17:35]
A
Right. What is Golden Globe? Right. What's the shoe PCAs, you know, right.
- [17:42]
B
These awards took place. The event celebrates outstanding achievement in the footwear industry.
- [17:48]
A
I mean, of course it does.
- [17:50]
B
What literally? What else would they be celebrating? Rihanna and Martha Stewart ran into each other and Martha posted to her Instagram, riri bad gal. Riri is so beautiful and statuesque. She wrote in a post. And she has a very handsome and funny boyfriend asap. Rock Rocky. She added, noting that she was one of the honorees at the event held at Chip Briani.
- [18:10]
A
I just don't understand one, why was Martha at this particular affair? I know she's fabulous. So was she just there because she's fabulous or has she made an impact in the footwear community?
- [18:19]
B
This year she was presented with an icon award.
- [18:24]
A
What contributions to the footwear community has she made?
- [18:28]
B
I don't know. Maybe Omni Media did something like, I watched your documentary.
- [18:31]
A
I didn't see a thing about a shoe.
- [18:32]
B
I didn't know who throws a shoe, right? Oh. Snoop Dogg. And Martha Stewart announced a multi year partnership with Sketchers in 2023.
- [18:40]
A
Oh, actually, yes, I know those commercials. And I actually think that was a great money investment. Excuse me, I can't talk.
- [18:48]
B
It was a great money.
- [18:49]
A
It was a great money for sketchers because they definitely like border on irrelevant because they really are just like for old ladies. So they got the coolest old lady and her cool best friend. That was kind of genius. That should go perhaps in our Toasty Lions category. That was a very.
- [19:00]
B
We didn't even like really remember it.
- [19:02]
A
No, because it wasn't like a big stupid announcement. I just started seeing them on the commercials and you know what? I feel favored towards Skechers. Like, when I. When I think about it.
- [19:09]
B
Yeah.
- [19:10]
A
And that's what good marketing should do.
- [19:11]
B
Well, I like my Skecher sneakers, but.
- [19:13]
A
I love my Prada backpack. She was so right for that. Like, my Sketcher sneakers that keep me alive.
- [19:17]
B
They like them. Yeah, sure.
- [19:18]
A
But my Prada backpack is everything to me.
- [19:20]
B
Right.
- [19:21]
A
You actually have a Prada backpack that you've had since, like, 2009. And it's probably one of the best things that you own, and you use it to this day.
- [19:28]
B
Find it. Excuse. I mean, it's here.
- [19:30]
A
I know where it is. Margo has it. She totally stole it.
- [19:32]
B
You think? Satchel. Cratchel.
- [19:34]
A
You're very generous with it.
- [19:35]
B
Everyone, when someone goes, you're in your Thanksgiving tick tock with my Dior bag, which, by the way, I let her borrow for a trip. Like, she's going somewhere fabulous. You need a fabulous.
- [19:42]
A
Yeah, the perfect.
- [19:43]
B
Like, I want you to have the right thing. And I also said, like, you know what? Keep it. Like, I'm like, maybe he's like, I'm not going out. I don't need a little black bag. Whatever. But, like, you could always give it back. Or at least give me credit. In the tick tock where she gave credit to the girl whose dress she was wearing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. She shout out Kate Davis because couldn't tell that big sis that's so maybe.
- [20:02]
A
She'S like, had it for so long, she just thinks of it as her. It's like, it doesn't even occur to her that it's technically a borrowed bag.
- [20:07]
B
And so many times I'm going out and I need it. Like, I feel it's.
- [20:11]
A
I think she's coming to visit you soon. Ask her to bring it.
- [20:13]
B
I know. I just feel bad.
- [20:15]
A
That's insane that you feel bad.
- [20:17]
B
I know. I don't feel bad. Sorry, that's like an overstatement. Just, like, sucks for her.
- [20:23]
A
Romeo just waltz in the studio, like, from somewhere else. Where has.
- [20:26]
B
Where has Romeo been?
- [20:27]
A
And what is.
- [20:27]
B
What has he done?
- [20:28]
A
What is waiting for us on the other side of that door?
- [20:30]
B
I don't know, but I just want to say her getting icon awards at the Shoe Oscars when she has a partnership with Skechers since last year, like, it's not that iconic, but okay.
- [20:40]
A
You know, I guess nobody else in the space was doing anything of muster because.
- [20:44]
B
No, but you don't want to give it to, like, Jimmy Choo.
- [20:46]
A
Yeah. It's Michael Kors slap in the face to people who actually manufactured shoes.
- [20:52]
B
Vince Commuter or like, yeah, of course.
- [20:55]
A
Like somebody who, like, a design shoes. But I feel like, I don't know, some. Some people, like, you know, what was like, a shoe collab Nike does with, like, athletes that, like, break records.
- [21:03]
B
Like, Caitlin Clark. Her shoes records.
- [21:06]
A
Yes. Like, no Shade to Martha would literally lay my life out on the line.
- [21:10]
B
Like, give her all the awards. Sure. I just want to say, like, in the shoe icon category, if I was.
- [21:17]
A
A person who took, like, the shoe awards really seriously, I would be annoyed about this.
- [21:21]
B
Yeah.
- [21:21]
A
Thankfully, I'm not.
- [21:22]
B
Snoop presented her the award virtually. Like, it's seriously giving low budget virtually. I'm shocked that Rihanna was there. I think that she was there because ASAP Rocky was honored.
- [21:33]
A
Yeah. Like, it's his thing.
- [21:34]
B
He was awarded for collaboration of the year in recognition of his partnership with Puma. So there's, like, been really big things going on in the shoe world, and they feel like if you don't listen to today's episode of the Toast, you wouldn't know.
- [21:45]
A
And didn't Rihanna have a big thing with Puma too?
- [21:47]
B
She's the creative director, so she hired her mans.
- [21:49]
A
We'd love to see women in business.
- [21:51]
B
Like, doing charity is seriously, like, nepotism.
- [21:54]
A
But, yeah, I feel like when we talk about couples, like, we're always talking about, like, different power dynamics, like, within Hollywood, how, like, you know, really powerful women, like, need, like, men in different industries because they're. So we don't talk enough about how ASAP Rocky and Rihanna really are in the same industry. And she is so far out of his league, business wise. She is clear. She's a billionaire. And I don't. I honestly don't even know how he makes a living. Like, I know he's done music before. I don't think he's consistently releasing music. I don't think he consistently does anything. I think he, like, loves being a dad and loves being Rihanna's man.
- [22:22]
B
He's like a professional partner.
- [22:24]
A
Yeah. And he doesn't get enough credit for being like, exactly what we're always saying. Like, powerful women need. We're always saying powerful women need a firefighter so they don't compete. Like, yeah. Meanwhile, ASAP Rocky here is holding it down.
- [22:35]
B
No, it can be done.
- [22:36]
A
Yes.
- [22:37]
B
But I do feel like when we talk about them, we do always mention that, like, okay, good.
- [22:41]
A
We just don't talk about them a lot. Maybe that's it.
- [22:43]
B
Yeah. Because we're always talking about her.
- [22:44]
A
We always talk about her. Therein lies the issue. Well, not an issue. Also, I follow Martha Stewart on Instagram. So I did see this photo. I was aware of that she was at the Footwear association of Americas, the faa, whatever. And it reminded me, because she tagged Rihanna that, like, Rihanna has never and most likely will never change her Instagram username. Like, she was this up and coming singer, and I'm sure when she made her Instagram, like, she thought it was funny.
- [23:05]
B
She wasn't up and coming.
- [23:06]
A
She wasn't Rihanna. Like, she wasn't an icon.
- [23:08]
B
No, it was crazy when she did it then, because Instagram came out, what, like 2009. Like, she was Rihanna and she made her name Bad Gallery and never changed it. Yeah.
- [23:16]
A
And I love that.
- [23:17]
B
And that just always reminds me of your friend Alicia.
- [23:19]
A
Yes. When I was in high school, my friend Alicia and I was, like, so jealous. Was such a good.
- [23:24]
B
Call her Bad Gal.
- [23:24]
A
Yeah. By the say, a lot of people do. Her name is Elysian, so she did Bad Gal, and it was a sleigh. Like, it was so good.
- [23:31]
B
It was such a slay.
- [23:32]
A
It was such a slay. And it. She eventually changed it. I think maybe she thought it, like, wasn't, like, mature or appropriate. Like, she had her reasons, you know, as we all do. And the impact that it left, it never went away.
- [23:42]
B
No. Like, when I see her. Bad Gal.
- [23:44]
A
Yeah, yeah, you actually. You do. Bad Girl. It's. And what a nickname. Because, by the way, nobody's ever in their life been less bad than my friend Alicia. Like, she's the least bad ever.
- [23:56]
B
She's bad to the bone. Bad to the bone.
- [24:00]
A
I love that song.
- [24:01]
B
Are you ready for our next story?
- [24:03]
A
Hopefully it's some more footwear news.
- [24:05]
B
No, it is more wicked news because Ari is tearing up while addressing the, quote, dangerous comments about her weight. So in a new interview. Wicked. You know, the usual. The press tour works. Her and Cynthia sitting down. She was asked by a French reporter how she copes with society's beauty standards and the overwhelming pressure women feel to always look perfect. The pop star was immediately overcome with emotion.
- [24:29]
A
She shocker.
- [24:30]
B
She said, my goodness, I'm not gonna. She let out trying not to cry. Good question. I've seen a lot of clips of them crying on this press tour. And at this point, like, whatever, I'll allow it. I just wish they would stop.
- [24:42]
A
Stop talking.
- [24:43]
B
No, no. Stop trying to not cry. Like, just the tears are coming. Let them flow. Stop acting like you're shocked that this is happening. Just, like, let it. I was watching her on Zach sing. Like, every clip I watch, they're like, oh, My God. Oh, they're here. Just let them out. Like.
- [24:58]
A
Yeah.
- [24:58]
B
And especially. This is probably one of the more sensitive conversations they're gonna have. Like, just let the tears fall.
- [25:03]
A
Bruno farted in the. Bruno farted. I don't even smell it.
- [25:06]
B
Claudia.
- [25:06]
A
Oh, never mind. And he seriously didn't even move a muscle. He's still asleep. Like, that is the level. I'm unbothered. I aim to be. Especially my pregnancy, like, where all these things are happening to my body.
- [25:18]
B
Oh, my God. And also just reminds me of her song. Right now, I'm in a state of mind. I wanna be in it all the time.
- [25:31]
A
Ain't got no tears left to cry. Incorrect. That's such a good song. Have you ever heard the Camila Cabello demo of that? I feel like we talk about this all the time.
- [25:39]
B
No, I haven't. Are you sure it's that song?
- [25:41]
A
Yes.
- [25:42]
B
Or you guys write her own music? Is that what you're saying?
- [25:44]
A
That was, like, a demo that went around the music industry that, like, a lot of the pop swirlies either sampled or thought about putting on, like, a lot. A lot of them recorded. I believe BB Rex also has a version out there, and Ari was the one. I don't know if there was, like, a battle over it or nobody wanted an. Ari took it. I don't know how it worked. But there are versions of that song recorded by other artists, which is just interesting.
- [26:01]
B
That is interesting. So she said when asked about the. The pressure and the standards, she said, my goodness, I'm not gonna. Good question. Then she was confronted by Cynthia, who joined her for the sit down. She said, I've been kind of doing this in front of the public and kind of been a specimen in a petri dish, really, since I was 16 or 17. So I've heard it all. I've heard every version of it, of what's wrong with me. And then you fix it, and then it's wrong for different reasons. But that's everything from even just the simplest thing. Your appearance, you know? She explained that it's hard to protect yourself from that noise. And you're young and you're hearing all kinds of things said. I think that it's something that is uncomfortable no matter what scale you're experiencing on. Even if you go to Thanksgiving and someone's granny says, oh, my God, you look skinnier. What happened? Or you look heavier. What happened? She emphasized that being on the receiving end of those comments, regardless of who you are, is horrible. She said, I think in today's society, There's a comfortability that we shouldn't have it all. Commenting on others, looks, appearances, what they think is going on behind the scenes or health or how they present themselves.
- [26:52]
A
Right. Because the. The overwhelming consensus with Ari is no one saying she looks bad. Like, they're just, like, it is coming from a place of concern because she is so thin. Although I think people think that it's like, a new thinness. And if you look back, she really has been at this weight for, like, last, like, three, four years. It is a low weight. It's small. And I don't know where I land on this or where we as a society landed on this. Like, you probably should never be talking about anyone's body because you would certainly never say, like, wow, that person's huge. Like, you wouldn't say the opposite. So one shouldn't be okay and the other shouldn't. But if you are coming from, like, a trip, like, sometimes somebody, you know, losing a drastic amount of weight is, like, a health issue or they're going through, like, people in abusive relationships, like, drop weight. Like, it can be an indicator. It can also be nothing. Right.
- [27:35]
B
Sometimes someone's always been small, and they've actually. They gained weight at a time, and then they're back to their original weight, and you're like, wait, why are you so thin? And they're like, oh, I've actually always been like this. There's always a million things going on. I've seen a lot of stuff about her and Cynthia dropping a lot of weight. Yeah. And I keep seeing these comparison photos. They're like, pictures of them before wicked. And pictures them after. And they use these photos from, like, the Olympic ceremony opening that they went to. And, like, the lighting is hard. It's seriously poot level.
- [28:00]
A
Yeah.
- [28:00]
B
And, like, stop using that one fucking picture on that ugly, bad day with the overcast lady. Yeah. They look bad and ghostly. That's not a. They look beautiful.
- [28:10]
A
People are like, what happened on that set?
- [28:12]
B
Yeah. Yeah. Because they chose a picture in, like, perfect lighting before.
- [28:15]
A
They both look malnourished, like, and then.
- [28:16]
B
In the second, they look like they've had their souls sucked out of their body.
- [28:19]
A
They look like Voldemort. Like.
- [28:21]
B
Like, it's just a bad picture. We. It's a poop moment.
- [28:23]
A
Yeah. Chalk it up to a poop moment.
- [28:25]
B
They look beautiful on the press tour. They look beautiful in the movie.
- [28:28]
A
They look fine. They look healthy.
- [28:29]
B
They're grown women. They obviously like the way that they look. Leave them alone.
- [28:35]
A
Yeah. And then you also have to think about, like, what sort of issues they both have. Just being a woman in the industry, like, people always being talked about your body. So, like, why don't we just leave everyone alone? Okay.
- [28:46]
B
Yeah. Yeah.
- [28:47]
A
And it's a really good place.
- [28:48]
B
And I really do feel like, as a society, we've stopped doing that. Like, people don't talk, like, back in the day, the way they used to talk.
- [28:54]
A
The COVID of every magazine.
- [28:55]
B
Like, Jessica Simpson in those jeans. Like, like, such crazy things. And I feel like we've mostly moved past that, so it does feel like a bit of a regression here.
- [29:03]
A
Yeah.
- [29:04]
B
And it must be really annoying to see.
- [29:05]
A
Yeah. But do you remember, like, a time when all the it girlies like Lindsay, Paris Nicole were, like, emaciated and, like, skeletal? Yeah. And they would be on the COVID of every magazine, like, with their bones out. That was so crazy.
- [29:16]
B
Yeah.
- [29:17]
A
Like, that's what we used to grow up in the supermarket. Like, that's what we would say.
- [29:20]
B
Yeah.
- [29:20]
A
That was just, like, that was also the look.
- [29:22]
B
That was the look.
- [29:23]
A
Like, it was in fashion.
- [29:24]
B
Like, the looks change, but, like, regardless, just everyone's on their own journey. Leave them alone. She's obviously, like, very happy. Happy. And it's true.
- [29:30]
A
And she looks like a person who's like.
- [29:32]
B
And she likes how she looks.
- [29:33]
A
Must be nice.
- [29:34]
B
You know, they say, like, nothing tastes as good as skinny feels.
- [29:37]
A
I was just having this conversation with someone, and I've thought about that phrase a lot because I used to, like, be very. I used to be very anti that phrase, but that was because I had never been skinny. Then I became skinny. And I actually do believe, like, being in control of your body, like, is just as good as a donut. Like, maybe, maybe not one is better than the other, but they both have extraordinary merit.
- [29:58]
B
You couldn't say which one's better. The donut is fleeting.
- [30:02]
A
Yeah. I guess I would say, like, feeling healthy, feeling good. Being in control of your weight. It feels better, literally, than. And then anything could possibly taste. I can attribute that. And there are some. I've eaten some delicious things.
- [30:12]
B
Yeah.
- [30:13]
A
But also, like, if you're in control of your body, like you should, you are able to eat those things. Like, you can have both. You can actually have things that taste as good as skinny feels and be skinny.
- [30:23]
B
Yes, to a degree.
- [30:24]
A
To a degree, of course. But you can't have it for every meal. But, like, that's part of, like, a healthy balance. Like, you can have a donut.
- [30:28]
B
A little treat.
- [30:29]
A
Yeah.
- [30:29]
B
A sweet treat.
- [30:30]
A
I just had, like, five sweet Treats. I went through Jackie's Halloween candy. It was so good. I.
- [30:35]
B
Worth it. We needed a sugar boost.
- [30:37]
A
We needed a boost before, before this episode. We were kind of like crashing that, you know, at 1:00. Crash.
- [30:42]
B
Are you ready for our next story? What number three?
- [30:45]
A
Yes.
- [30:45]
B
Kind of surprising news.
- [30:46]
A
Tell me.
- [30:47]
B
Amber Heard is expecting baby number two. She's delighted both for herself and her daughter, Una Page, who was three and a half. Now, I have a lot of thoughts, but let me just share the dates.
- [30:56]
A
Yeah. Because Elon totally donated his seed, of.
- [30:58]
B
Course, to have a sister or brother for Una, his other.
- [31:01]
A
And for ex.
- [31:02]
B
Yeah.
- [31:03]
A
But like step sibling for X.
- [31:04]
B
Our working theory. And I think a lot of people's theory and nobody's dispelling it. Nobody's talking about it because it's like, you know, not our business. And I can recognize that. But I'm curious. Amber Heard has a three and a half year old daughter. Nobody knows who the father is.
- [31:14]
A
After her relationship with Johnny Depp. So that is also when she dated Elon.
- [31:19]
B
Nobody knows who the father is. There is space for it to have been Elon.
- [31:24]
A
You know how much he loves procreating. It's like one of his favorite hobbies. There also were a lot of rumors and it did kind of make sense that he was helping her financially a lot during her trial with Johnny Depp. Because, you know, she. That was like lawyers like that for a case that's millions and millions of dollars. And she actually said on trial she has very little work these days because of the whole Johnny Depp thing. So I believe that these two are definitely incommunicado. I feel like they are like friendly exes. And I could totally. Her seeing her having either gotten pregnant or literally asking him for help and then she wanted another one. So where'd he go? Of course, to Una's dad.
- [31:54]
B
And she's like living abroad now.
- [31:56]
A
Spain.
- [31:56]
B
I don't know if she's really working. Like, I do feel like Elon is footing the bill for a thousand percent. Amber and his child. And then she wants another kid. And like he loves donating sperm and procreating. Like, I would need someone to seriously tell me the truth in order for me to stop believing this. Because, like, this makes sense to me. Right.
- [32:12]
A
There are like a couple mysteries in Hollywood when it comes to paternity. January Jones every. There's rumors that it's Bobby Flay for her dad is her baby daddy. Like, they're of course Mindy Keeling. People think it's bj Novak, we have no confirmation. All those are really rumors.
- [32:24]
B
Don't even conflate.
- [32:25]
A
Exactly.
- [32:25]
B
BJ with this.
- [32:26]
A
Exactly.
- [32:27]
B
Seriously, certifiably true, true rumor. Because there's not a better alternative.
- [32:32]
A
Before we continue, this is just my quarterly check in to see if Amber Heard still follows me on social media. She follows 54 people, and I am one of them. All throughout the trial. I don't know why.
- [32:41]
B
Like, love being pregnant with you.
- [32:43]
A
Oh, my God. My pregnant sister. Have you ever dm? Oh, my. We have.
- [32:46]
B
You should like to DM her and be like, miles was so happy for you.
- [32:49]
A
Oh, my God. I responded to one of her stories in 2018, and then in 2019, she responded to one of my stories. Killing the game, babe. I don't even know what I was referring to.
- [32:57]
B
You were killing the game.
- [32:57]
A
She said that to me.
- [32:58]
B
No, you were killing me.
- [32:59]
A
I could see her talking like that.
- [33:00]
B
I know that. You were.
- [33:01]
A
I was like. And I'm so obnoxious. I'm like, oh, my God, stop. I look so ugly. Like, I. Could I be, like, more down on myself?
- [33:07]
B
Seriously?
- [33:08]
A
Okay. We haven't spoken since 2019, but I. I always check to see if she still follows me.
- [33:12]
B
And she does, and that's major.
- [33:13]
A
It is.
- [33:14]
B
A spokesperson for Heard for her says it's still quite early in the pregnancy, so you'll appreciate that we do not want to go into too much detail at this stage. Suffice to say that Amber is delighted for both herself and Una Page.
- [33:32]
A
That's nice.
- [33:34]
B
Yeah.
- [33:35]
A
I feel like she's so done.
- [33:37]
B
She is so done.
- [33:38]
A
Like, with everyone and everything, even the country. Like, she's just living her best life. Like, I'm surprised we even knew this. That's how off the grid I feel she is.
- [33:45]
B
Yeah, I just. I like my version of events.
- [33:49]
A
Definitely.
- [33:50]
B
Regardless, it seems like this is, like, a happy next chapter for her. So.
- [33:53]
A
It's good. It's good.
- [33:54]
B
Go forth and prosper and multiply and multiply.
- [33:58]
A
Very biblical.
- [33:59]
B
Fruitful and multiply.
- [34:00]

Before you dive into the next story, let me just let you know that today's episode is brought to you by Prolon. Did you know that there's a nutrition plan that doesn't just help you lose weight, but actually has been shown to lower your biological age score? It's called Prolon by El Nutra. And here's the craziest part. It's a fast, but it does include food. So full disclosure. I'm sure, like many of you very, you know, trepidatious of a diet that Includes fasting because the thought of not eating for an extended period of time really sounds horrible. But Prolon by El Nutra is a fast with food and it'll make you rethink everything. So introducing Prolon, a revolutionary plant based nutrition program that nourishes the body while making cells believe that they're fasting. Researched and developed for decades at the University of Southern California Longevity Institute and backed by leading US medical centers, Prolon helps promote healthy blood sugar, supports cardiovascular health and it reduces abdominal fat. But keep in mind that Prolon is not a diet. It is science. And it's science based on Nobel prize winning discoveries in medicine. It all starts with Prolon's five day program which includes snacks, soups, beverages. They're all designed to keep your body in a fasting state. So it's a fast, right? But you're literally eating and drinking stuff and that's I think kind of magical how they've tricked your body into thinking that it's fasting. So you're getting all the benefits but you're able to have a snack. So it's really unlike anything you'll ever experience.

- [38:32]
A
So much better that you did one of the ads. I'm out of breath.
- [38:35]
B
Our next story. I'm just going to preface this by saying I don't understand it. Okay, so I'm going to share what I'm reading, but I'm letting you know that I Can't process the words that I'm reading.
- [38:43]
A
Maybe I can.
- [38:44]
B
Yeah, maybe you can.
- [38:45]
A
I do speak multiple languages.

Hawk to a creator is being criticized for her meme coin launch after the price crashes. So Haley Welch, the 22 year old woman who achieved Internet fame this summer for her viral Hawk to a tick tock video. You guys, we all know her, she's affectionately called Hawk to A. She launched her own meme coin in her latest career move, only for its value to plummet almost immediately. So I also can't tell what part of these articles are just like anti hawk to a slant and I feel like there's a lot of that, so I need you to help me sift through.
- [39:18]
A
No, but like what you just said is all facts.
- [39:20]
B
Sex. They said they call it bizarre. I took that out.
- [39:22]
A
I think it's bizarre.
- [39:24]
B
Like latest bizarre career move. As if she has a lot of bizarre.
- [39:28]
A
Well, that's wrong. She actually doesn't. She spends like literally every dollar she makes on animal rescuing. She's actually a really. The more I know about her, the more I actually really like her.
- [39:34]
B
The reason why I'm really reticent to like go all in like Hawk to a up is because like I actually like trust talk to and I just, I feel like she's being misrepresented. Okay.
- [39:43]
A
I don't know if I trust talk to her, but let me say there, I think two things can be true here. One, it's a, it's a bizarre move. Like, and I didn't, I don't really understand and maybe this is my lack of like a finance degree, how you can like create a coin. But I know that's how crypto works. Doge.
- [40:00]
B
Like how the fuck can you create a coin?
- [40:02]
A
I guess somebody had to create, you know, ethereum, like all of the popular ones. So she tried to create the next bitcoin and people are upset because when they bought it immediately went down in value. So it's like going to stock market. You buy Disney shares for 50 and the second you buy them, they're worth 10 cents.
- [40:16]
B
Like why did that happen? Why would Disney go down, down?
- [40:19]
A
Not only that, I feel like if.
- [40:20]
B
You'Re, it doesn't make sense if you're.
- [40:22]
A
At a place where you have money to just frivolously, frivolously spend on Hawk Tua's new coin. Like that's money that you can lose. And I also think there needs to be like a level. This is the second truth. I'm holding space for a level of personal Accountability. Like, I. I'm very, like, serious about money. Like, I'm very fiscally conservative. Like, and I like Hawk too. I don't know if I trust her, but I like her. And, like, I would never in my life spend one single dollar on her coin. It's like a new. I don't know if they're success with like, creator based coins. Like, I don't know enough about this.
- [40:49]
B
Okay, so here are the deeds. Haley launched the Hawk to a coin widely seen as a meme coin or a form of cryptocurrency that's typically created for entertainment purposes on the Solana blockchain on Wednesday evening.
- [41:00]
A
Of course she did. I mean, who wouldn't do Solana?
- [41:02]
B
I love this. A lot of blockchain of the blockchains. That's my favorite one.
- [41:07]
A
It's a really, really strong one. I don't disagree. That's a good point.
- [41:10]
B
Her coin quickly hit a market capitalization of nearly $500 million. What? Before immediately plummeting 95% to 25 million as of Thursday afternoon, according to Dex screener data.
- [41:23]
A
Yeah, so this is where my lack of a finance degree or, like, a genuine understanding of cryptocurrency limits my ability to do my job.
- [41:29]
B
Yeah. And the. The launch appeared to result in big losses for some traders. Coffee Zilla, who's a crypto YouTube or with more. Do you know Coffee Zilla?
- [41:38]
A
I mean, who doesn't?
- [41:41]
B
He said in a. He said in a tense X space conversation with Welch and her team that the Hawk to a rollout was, quote, one of the most miserable, horrible launches I've ever seen. A cruising Welch in her team of insider trading, which they denied.
- [41:54]
A
Well, here's the thing. I'm not gonna pretend to roll out.
- [41:58]
B
A coin better than they did.
- [41:59]
A
Yeah. And the thing is, isn't that how the market works? Like, why is it Hawk to his fault that the value went down? Wouldn't the value be predicated on, like, how many people want to buy it? Like, that's not Hawk's fault, is it?
- [42:09]
B
No, I don't think so. And like, at the end of the day, what the are they buying? Does it have value?
- [42:14]
A
But that's crypto. Like, crypto doesn't have value. It doesn't. It's not real. Like, it doesn't exist, but it does.
- [42:19]
B
Look at Bitcoin. 100 grand for a coin.
- [42:21]
A
Yeah.
- [42:23]
B
Do we need to be launching Swirly Coin?
- [42:26]
A
The thing is, I can't handle another scandal. Like, and if we launched Swirly Coin, I'm Sure. Codezilla would think that it's coffee Zilla. Mine's better. Codezilla would think it's insufficient and that it was a bad rollout. Like, I'm not interested in getting the panties of the Doge community in a twist.
- [42:42]
B
Yeah. Also, like, he hit her with that insider trading. Like, I'm running so far.
- [42:46]
A
That's an allegation.
- [42:47]
B
Like, yeah.
- [42:48]
A
Any sort of business venture that could potentially land us in jail. I am so out on. You know, there are certain things that influencers, creators, celebrities do. I mean, how many celebrities endorsed ftx? How many celebrities endorsed Fyre Festival? I want you guys know my biggest fear in life is going to jail. Like, I wouldn't do even if they said 30. We can guarantee you make $10 million. Do turd coin. No, because come on.
- [43:13]
B
Turd Coin, that's what my.
- [43:15]
A
My freedom is worth way more than $10 million. If they said a billion for you and your family to get out of jail in a couple of years, I'd think about it for sure.
- [43:24]
B
Yeah. Okay. Well, I'm gonna be dreaming about Turd Coin.
- [43:27]
A
You should. By the. You can't afford it.
- [43:30]
B
I just, like, need to know what Hawk was trying to do. I feel like Hawk's side of the story is not being told here.
- [43:36]
A
She has a podcast, maybe, like, she's recording right now.
- [43:38]
B
Yeah.
- [43:39]
A
Because it's all went down yesterday.
- [43:40]
B
Yeah. I just. I don't. I can't provide commentary. I can only share these things I'm reading.
- [43:46]
A
But what you're saying is that you're trusting your faves when it comes to a little bit.
- [43:49]
B
Like, a little. I think that I don't understand what she did wrong.
- [43:52]
A
She hasn't given us reason to think that she's, like, a criminal inside trader.
- [43:55]
B
Like, I don't understand what she did wrong. She said, I'm launching Hawk Coins coin, and people bought it and then it dropped. I don't know why they bought it and I don't know why it dropped and why it talks fault.
- [44:03]
A
And I think that, like, there needs to be accountability for people who buy things that can increase and decrease in value. Like, okay, and so the thing you bought decrease. That's not the fault of the thing you bought it. Like, where's the personal accountability and invest, Romeo.
- [44:14]
B
Yeah.
- [44:15]
A
In investing.
- [44:16]
B
I agree. Now, how's your dogecoin doing?
- [44:18]
A
Oh, is that time of the year where I check how upsettingly.
- [44:22]
B
Like, you should have bought one bitcoin and you'd have 100g when I was.
- [44:26]
A
Like, first thinking about doing crypto. Doge was. I mean, Doge. Bitcoin was still 60k. Yeah, it's more now. Okay. I actually have a little bit of Ethereum.
- [44:38]
B
Okay.
- [44:39]
A
And oh my God, I've made $300. Oh my God, look at me. When did I buy Ethereum? That's so weird.
- [44:45]
B
You're making your money work for you.
- [44:46]
A
Oh my God. And then I. Oh, also have Doge. And I have made 3. 100 of a cent. 0.0035 cents.
- [44:56]
B
And I don't know how you would like make more or less.
- [44:59]
A
There was a time when I had like 300 surplus in dose.
- [45:02]
B
Time to sell.
- [45:03]
A
That was the time to sell. But yes, I did you see how.
- [45:06]
B
Like Dave Portnoy, he had like owned a bunch of bitcoin and then he did an episode with the Winklevoss twins and they like confused him so much that he got nervous and sold all his bitcoin. And now it's what it is.
- [45:15]
A
I weeks.
- [45:16]
B
Yikes.
- [45:16]
A
I can't believe I own Ethereum. Can we just go back to that? Ben must have like told me to do it and like I put like $5 in.
- [45:21]
B
What do you mean you can't believe you own Ethereum? Am I supposed to be. What is that?
- [45:24]
A
You don't know Ethereum?
- [45:25]
B
No, I don't know Ethereum.
- [45:26]
A
It's like after bitcoin, the most popular coin.
- [45:29]
B
Oh, okay.
- [45:30]
A
And people say you know Ethereum to the moon. That's what they say.
- [45:33]
B
And what about Pepe Coin? Do you know about that?
- [45:35]
A
Pep of the pig.
- [45:37]
B
There's Pepe coin here, another meme coin. Also here. Meme coins, though, are considered highly volatile and risky by crypto investors as they are dependent on social media trends. Like, of course. Yeah, you are putting your money behind things. A coin.
- [45:51]
A
By the way, this is really interesting. You know, I have a. I have a little bit of money in Robin Hood, like not a lot. And I invest in like, you know, Apple, Disney, like lame, boring things and overall Tesla. I did at one point. Do I still. No, I don't. I should have a couple of. So over my all time investments, I have made $660. And what's crazy is that, Claudia, it's not good. 300 of it comes from Ethereum. So half of my earnings come.
- [46:21]
B
Your portfolio stinks.
- [46:22]
A
I know, but I don't monitor it.
- [46:24]
B
But what'd you put in? $10. The free $10 that they give you.
- [46:27]
A
No, don't be rude. I like put in like that much.
- [46:30]
B
And you've made $600.
- [46:33]
A
Yeah.
- [46:33]
B
That's not good.
- [46:34]
A
It's not?
- [46:35]
B
No.
- [46:36]
A
Yeah. Well, at one point it was higher. I don't know. Everything's green on my app today, so it looks good. Look, look how much green. Everything's up. I sound like a fool. Yeah, yeah. I should probably like. I should probably like dead ass.
- [46:49]
B
Charts could be going down but if they're colored green like it's a good.
- [46:53]
A
Green is good. Green is up.
- [46:56]
B
Anyways, Haley, like I. I look forward to hearing more and I'm gonna give you space. Oh great. I'm giving Haley Grace. Are you ready for our fifth and final story for actually you. Our fifth and final story is for you.
- [47:09]
A
Okay. Not me.
- [47:12]
B
Our big Harry Potter fan. Harry Potter HBO series will film in summer 2025 after 32000 kids auditioned for the lead role.
- [47:20]
A
Oh, that's interesting because before you said that fact I said DNPM does not pass monster. Like who gives a.
- [47:25]
B
Sorry. Lead roles because there's like multiple kids in the lead role.
- [47:28]
A
So Warner Brothers, I mean who would, who seriously wouldn't want to be like, like Daniel Radcliffe, like he never has to work, he's a billionaire.
- [47:34]
B
But do you think that the series is going to do what the movie did? Could it possibly.
- [47:38]
A
People who are like small minded think that it will.
- [47:40]
B
Yeah. So during a presentation at Warner Brothers Discoveries headquarters in London on Thursday, the showrunner and director revealed that the show had auditioned 32,000 kids for the lead roles.
- [47:49]
A
That just seems unnecessary for like one casting director to meet 32,000 kids.
- [47:54]
B
A lot of tape. The casting director currently reviewing between 500 and 1000 audition take tapes per day with the intent to watch every single one. Though he affirmed that they haven't made any choices in regards to casting yet, he said the next step will be to workshop with some of their shortlisted candidates in January.
- [48:08]
A
So they still. So like they still don't.
- [48:10]
B
They're still watching tapes is what they're saying. I hope they pick like all unknowns because now it's like, well then you watch these tapes for nothing. If you're just going to pick the person from over there.
- [48:19]
A
I actually think being a casting director is a job I'm so unqualified for. I have no imagination. Like if you're not exactly what I'm picturing in my head, like I can't see you. Because when people get cast for things I'm always like, that sucks and it ends up being good. You know, like I think that the to job I wouldn't do very well.
- [48:34]
B
I actually think I'd be okay. I think I could see it.
- [48:37]
A
You think you have vision? Yeah. I think you do too. Big vision. Yeah.
- [48:41]
B
But, yeah, I would say, overall, like, this story isn't full of mustard.
- [48:45]
A
We don't need to talk about it more. If you don't want, like, I'm okay to, like, kind of wrap.
- [48:48]
B
Do you have anyone, like, in mind for.
- [48:50]
A
No. I don't even know what the prequel is about, but I do know this will probably be the thing because I guess J.K. rowling gets a piece of this, of course. Right?
- [48:56]
B
Is it a prequel? No, I think it's just a ser. I think they're just, like, doing it again.
- [49:00]
A
Oh, oh. The same story.
- [49:01]
B
It's a series.
- [49:01]
A
Well, if it's Harry Potter, like, she gets.
- [49:03]
B
Let me just confirm that.
- [49:04]
A
And we were just talking about how she's close to billionaire status again after becoming a billionaire and giving away all of her money. So she was at 800 million the last time I checked. And this new franchise could bring her over the edge and then she could give the billions away again.
- [49:15]
B
Yeah. It really seems like it's the same as the books, Just new Kumza fresh.
- [49:20]
A
Just in time for me to have watched all the old crap right now.
- [49:24]
B
You're gonna miss, like, the Yossified Harry Potter on hbo, Max.
- [49:27]
A
Oh, yeah. They're gonna do what they did, like, with Pretty Little Liars. Like, make it, like, New Age. Everybody, like, has cell phones and, like.
- [49:33]
B
Blue hair and, like, Botox.
- [49:35]
A
Yeah. Big lips.
- [49:36]
B
Yeah.
- [49:36]
A
Love. Well, I would say that with the exception of the fifth story, those definitely pass muster. I enjoyed all of them. Okay, you sold it poorly.
- [49:46]
B
I think it's good when I set the bar low.
- [49:48]
A
It's true.
- [49:49]
B
You know, you really were expecting the worst.
- [49:50]
A
It's good when you set the Lisa Barlow.
- [49:52]
B
Yeah, when I set the Lisa Barlow. And now we have to go enjoy.
- [49:58]
A
Our weekend before our big show on Sunday. We're so excited to see you guys.
- [50:01]
B
I love that Gwyneth Paltrow meme. That's like, okay, I'm off to. It's like me at 4:30 when the sun goes down.
- [50:06]
A
Okay, that's it for me. I'm off to bed. But we are so excited to see all the swirlies who are coming in, traveling, making trips.
- [50:14]
B
We have such a swirl. Like, what's the most swirlified place in town? That would be the Hard Rock Seminal Casino in Fort Lauderdale.
- [50:21]
A
Broward. We haven't done a live show in so long. This is our last of the year, and probably our last for a really long time.
- [50:26]
B
Just a really long time.
- [50:26]
A
Given my physical state, like, yeah, Jackie and I, like, tbd, might be wearing matching dresses.
- [50:32]
B
I would love that. We need tap shoes. Let's go get some tap shoes.
- [50:36]
A
Let's go to, like, a studio and choreograph a tap dance that we could, like, open the show with.
- [50:40]
B
I love that. Oh, that's what you're thinking of.
- [50:43]
A
Marching feet. Honey Avenue. I'm taking you to 42nd Street.
- [50:51]
B
I might have, like, a remix.
- [50:52]
A
Guys, love you so much. And we'll see you on Sunday. If we don't, we'll see you on Monday.
- [50:56]
B
Love you. Bye.
