Claudia
Good morning, millennials.
- [00:04]
Jackie
Welcome back to the toast and Happy Monday. Like, this fucking sucks. Let's just acknowledge it. Like, it's Monday. We worked so hard last week, literally. For what? Just to be back here again.
- [00:15]
Claudia
I hadn't had that thought process this morning. I feel like it's a very fair Monday as far as Mondays goes, and we are so close to, like, Thanksgiving holiday season.
- [00:26]
Jackie
I feel like you and I are just, like, truly at different parts of our cycle based on, like, our perspective. Like, it's Monday this bl.
- [00:32]
Claudia
No, I'm at a pretty feral part. I'm. But I actually. But I'm not taking it out on the day of the week. Like, I'm just taking out on my husband.
- [00:39]
Jackie
Like, but on Friday, I was so, you know, accomplished, and I was like, yay, it's the weekend. And it just kind of, like, flew fucking by. I'm back where I started, and what do I have to show for it? Fucking nothing.
- [00:52]
Claudia
What do you have to show for your weekend? What did you do this weekend?
- [00:55]
Jackie
I literally watched Yellowstone. I ate. I went to the park.
- [01:00]
Claudia
Oh, I saw that you went to the park.
- [01:01]
Jackie
What else did I do?
- [01:03]
Claudia
I had such a busy weekend. I feel like so many weekends, I really enjoy being home. Like, playing in the backyard, barbecuing, and, like, that's always fun. But this weekend, both days, we were, like, active as, like, car.
- [01:14]
Jackie
That's why you feel different about the weekend. Like, I did nothing with my weekend. I'm doing nothing with my life. Like.
- [01:20]
Claudia
Like, I honestly, I had enough weekend. We had so much time. But, like, I'm wiped out from the weekend. Like, I'm ready to get back to my routine. You know, it's real when, like, the naps are taken, the car and not in the crib, because that just means you're on the go. We did so much on Saturday. We went shopping, we went to the beach. I posted this on my Instagram. But it's been a cornerstone of my weekend. I went to the Lake Crusade outlet, and I stocked up. They had my color of preference. It was just such an amazing experience. I didn't know that there were, like, Crusade stores, let alone outlets, let alone in my.
- [01:50]
Jackie
I didn't know they, like, sold anywhere other than, like, the Bloomingdale's Kitchen aisle.
- [01:54]
Claudia
Other than, like, Williams Sonoma, full price. And they'll tack on more for Williams.
- [01:58]
Jackie
Good luck. Like, maybe you'll find one one time, like, at a Goodwill, but that's it.
- [02:03]
Claudia
So thank you to Shannon Ford for influencing me to do that. So Saturday was just, like, so busy with. Honestly, I shop till I dropped.
- [02:10]
Jackie
That's like, to me, actually, that's a really unenjoyable way to spend the day. I do not enjoy, like, I like the process of, like, buying nice things for myself. But, like, the types of shopping where you're just, like, you get home and your feet hurt, that's, like, not an enjoyable way to spend the weekend.
- [02:24]
Claudia
No, it was enjoyable shopping because it was like, strolling down the street shopping. Not, like, in the dressing room trying on jeans. Like, maybe I'll try on a pair of shoes. And I was with the boys. Like, everything is just fun to look at, like, our art galleries and stuff. And I did walk away with a new set of Le Creuset and a pair of Chanel sandals and a Chanel outfit.
- [02:41]
Jackie
I see that you're wearing that today.
- [02:43]
Claudia
Oh, yes. But this I got@chanel.com. i didn't get this in store. It's an online.
- [02:46]
Jackie
So if you're watching on YouTube, Jackson, I are sporting new fall merch collection, which drops on Wednesday. This Wednesday. So in two days at 10am on our website, shoptoastmerch.com these are two of the sets that we're dropping. Jackie's is the Gargy Pargie set. She's wearing a size medium. Is that correct?
- [02:59]
Claudia
I took a medium, yes. I'm not wearing it, actually.
- [03:03]
Jackie
I'm not wearing this medium. This medium's wearing me. I'm wearing the Girly Swirly University set. We'll be teasing, like, all the products that we're launching. There's more.
- [03:11]
Claudia
There's so much cute stuff, and I don't want to, like, get ahead of the other cute stuff and, like, not focus on the cute stuff that we're wearing. Of course, we had to make Gargy Parchy merch because it's Gargy part. And, like, this has been sitting in my bathroom staring at me every day. And I've just been wanting to wear it, but I didn't want to tease it too far in advance. And that's, like, not fun for anyone. And then, of course, I'm a student at Girly Swirly University. I don't know about you, but I'm getting my education there. And I feel.
- [03:34]
Jackie
I wish that you could have seen me walking to work. Like, I guess when somebody walks by me, like, wearing a graphic tee, I guess I do always, like, look at it and, like, read what it says. And people were doing that to me. And I could see, like, the actual confusion on the Faces of people. They were like, really swirly. Is that a real place? Like, seriously ever? I'm like, wow, my boobs, like, must look big today. Everybody's staring at them. Everyone was reading my sweatshirt. I was cracking up. I actually, at like, one point, did feel a little embarrassed. It was so funny. And we also made a matching hat, which you'll see on Instagram, but can you please tell the story?
- [04:04]
Claudia
Yes. I was in Publix. I was wearing the girly swirly university hat that we've made. It says GS you. And then I was wearing the bar sweatshirt, and someone walked by me, and he was like, did you pass the bar? And I'm like, no. I'm just like a big.
- [04:21]
Jackie
And then Jackie text me. She's like, we have to tell the merch people. Like, we have to cancel this GSU hat. It's confusing. It must be like a law school.
- [04:27]
Claudia
Yeah, I thought he like. So I went to Georgia State and was like, did you pass the bar? Because I'm wearing a university hat? Later in my shopping experience, did I realize that I'm wearing a sweatshirt that says the bar and a university on my head and I look like somebody.
- [04:39]
Jackie
Who literally, like, just found out they passed the bar and then had to go to Publix. So you wanted to celebrate in your own way.
- [04:46]
Claudia
So I would just say, like, if you have the bar, don't wear it, but don't wear it with any GSU merch because you will really confuse people. And all of a sudden they'll be looking for a.
- [04:54]
Jackie
You will see. We had such a cute photo shoot. You will see everything. So make sure you're following all of us on social media. But the vibes are, like, very scholarly, very follow all of us. Very autumnal browns and maroons. And, you know, it's giving fall at Harvard. Honestly, it is.
- [05:10]
Claudia
It's also giving the color palette of a chili that wasn't the inspo. But that's just what happens when Gargy Par.
- [05:17]
Jackie
It's not like we definitely didn't do it on purpose, but, like, it's who we are. Like, if you were cut open my body the colors that would bleed chili colors. You know.
- [05:27]
Claudia
I mean, actually, like, do that is the color. We have one other set that is our classic low key classic set. That's the Toast logo set. And it's in a camel, which is also quite chili. Like. And then I don't want to play favorites, but we did produce one item that is my absolute.
- [05:42]
Jackie
It's a new skew for us. It's like a product we've never made. Yeah, that's right. It's a cardigan.
- [05:47]
Claudia
We made a cardigan, you guys, because that's all.
- [05:49]
Jackie
And it's like, it's actually sick.
- [05:51]
Claudia
And not wearing that has been really difficult for me. So I'm really excited to be having an easier time.
- [05:57]
Jackie
Wednesday, 10am Eastern Time. Shop, Toast, Merch. Com. You'll have everything you need on social media. So as long as you're following, you'll be able to see what we're selling, what time, where to go, who to see, where to be, et cetera, et cetera. So that's just like kind of big news from us.
- [06:11]
Claudia
Big. There's always big news from us. I've been wearing my GSU tote so much for the last month. I think I post it all the time because I'm always wearing it. I wore it to the petting zoo yesterday and something so crazy happened to me.
- [06:21]
Jackie
I can't believe you went to a pet. It's just so not you.
- [06:24]
Claudia
Well, we didn't go to a petting zoo proper. We went to a farm and they had a little zoo area. But like, you can pet the animals and it was giving petting zoo and you could feed the animals and the kids were feeding carrots to the llamas, which is what they said you should feed them. But I think they're just like with you because then the llamas started spitting carrots at us. So I have like llama spit up on my GS YouTube.
- [06:48]
Jackie
Llama spit, pajama.
- [06:50]
Claudia
Llama, Llama spit pajama. Claudia. I was.
- [06:54]
Jackie
Those places are. I went with Olivia once to like a zoo type of. Not zoo. It was like a sanctuary where you can like feed and whatever. And the kids love it. And the kids are so fearless. Like, they just run headfirst, like into these pens. Meanwhile, I'm freaking out. And the place, like, every animal was in an enclosure, but they had like goats roaming freely. I guess the goats, like, get special whatever. And you can, like, when you buy your ticket, they give you a bag of like raw vegetables like string beans and carrots to feed. And like these kids just running with their hands. I'm surprised they don't lose a finger. I was screaming, I turn around, there's a goat right beside. Like, seriously, that is something I will like when I become a parent. I will never like, I can't.
- [07:35]
Claudia
It's so hard. Hopefully you go with other parents who will go in the bird cage so that you don't have to which is what happened. But I also, I went in the kangaroo pen, there was like two little kangaroos and I was just like, okay, there was a ton of people, so what are the odds they're going to come for us? And it was like my energy was actually like, I don't want to project that on.
- [07:53]
Jackie
You're putting everyone in danger.
- [07:54]
Claudia
They are fearless. So it's honestly better if I just like don't go in. Because I was like.
- [07:59]
Jackie
And honestly, as a humanitarian, I also find fault, like you saying that there's a kangaroo in South Florida. Like, literally why that's like, why is there a polar bear in Central Park? I actually don't know if that polar bear is still in the Central park zoo, but let me tell you, for 25 years there was a dead ass polar bear in Manhattan. Like in this tiny little glass. Like, it was too sad. It was wrong. Like when they get such exotic animals, like, I don't know, it puts the whole thing in perspective for me and I'm like, I got to get out of here. I can't support. Support this.
- [08:26]
Claudia
I understand. But my like degree of concern, like, just ranges on like the size of the animal versus the cage that they're in. So like I am starting with the orcas and until like the orcas are back in the wild, like a little baby kangaroo hopping with his buddy and they had a big pen. It's just like, it's about the ratio of size to cage.
- [08:46]
Jackie
I also feel like ever since Blackfish, the documentary, like shined a light on, on orcas. And then just like the whole industry in general, a lot of like zoos and facilities like that have changed their names to being like sanctuaries, which makes you think like, oh, these are all rescues. And I feel like they're literally not. They just like changed the name on the sign from a zoo to a sanctuary just to be marked as safe.
- [09:07]
Claudia
I saw an orca. Unreal. Taking a dump that shot in his pool and splashed the audience. Literally. If, if I were there, I would not have been.
- [09:20]
Jackie
That's what was happening to you with the carrots.
- [09:22]
Claudia
It was. I know. It was funny to watch him take his power.
- [09:24]
Jackie
No, I loved every minute of it. Like those poor kids. But you know what? Like that, that's what your parents get for taking you. I will never in my life take my children to like especially the sea aquarium type of. What's that? What's the one called SeaWorld? But you know, they're off brand. Like, I will never.
- [09:41]
Claudia
Yeah, like, because like goats and llamas. Like those are farm animals.
- [09:44]
Jackie
Yes.
- [09:44]
Claudia
And we were at a farm. We were at, by the way. We were at a farm. A working farm. So that makes thousand percent have like that carrot.
- [09:52]
Jackie
No, that's. I'm fine. That's non gmo. That's cool.
- [09:56]
Claudia
It was non gmo. Not a GMO inside, but a gsu. GSU is always in sight because I'm getting my degree online.
- [10:05]
Jackie
Well, that's the other thing. I was working for an hourly wage and the story of how I like, got into GSE was actually really, really crazy. I'll tell it really briefly. I was working for an hourly wage and I went.
- [10:13]
Claudia
Did you apply early?
- [10:14]
Jackie
Well, I went to high school and I didn't do great.
- [10:17]
Claudia
Oh, I think I knew that.
- [10:18]
Jackie
But still, you know, I gotta make more cash and more education is what I was definitely looking at. So when I get a degree, obviously, what do I think? I'll make a bigger salary. And so now I had to see, like, which college is right for me. Where do you go? I went on the Internet and I found educationconnection.com. i took some pre tests, obviously, like to find out my direction. And then I was taking my classes online at gsu, getting my degree.
- [10:43]
Claudia
Getting your degree.
- [10:44]
Jackie
That was what I loved about gsu. Like, it was completely on my own time on Dirty Style. An education connection. Match me with the right college for free. It's hard. It's literally so hard not to sing it.
- [10:59]
Claudia
You did really good. Thank you.
- [11:00]
Jackie
Thank you. That was really funny.
- [11:01]
Claudia
At breaking it down.
- [11:03]
Jackie
I love to break down. I love to block and jam and jam and break. So you actually, they. You could study that at gsu.
- [11:13]
Claudia
What else can you study at gsu?
- [11:15]
Jackie
Oh, I mean, the possibilities are endless. They have like, obviously, like a mean, mean communications program. That's kind of what they're known for.
- [11:23]
Claudia
They have a really strong writing program where they'll help you title your.
- [11:26]
Jackie
Yeah, they will. They will. That's. That's like a whole. A concentration. You can actually. Yeah, you can actually, like build your major around that, which I think a lot of students really love. And I think not enough people when it comes to gsu, not enough people really talk about the Greek life. It's so Greek. Yeah. And if you give any of the students a word, any word, they will literally, on demand, show you it is Greek.
- [11:54]
Claudia
Okay. Can I give you one? Par. G.
- [12:01]
Jackie
Comes from the Greek word par Jos, which means beautiful. And I learned that at Girly Swirly University. And you can, too. So come on down. Fall enrollment. By the way, this is. What's that Blake Lively movie where they make a college accepted. That's literally gsu.
- [12:20]
Claudia
It is. I would love to go to gsu. There's no encampments at.
- [12:23]
Jackie
Oh, yeah, no, we don't tolerate any, like, radicalism. There's. The only thing we're indoctrinating you on is, like, the movie Sleepover. Okay. That's really it.
- [12:35]
Claudia
So true.
- [12:36]
Jackie
Yeah.
- [12:36]
Claudia
Julie.
- [12:37]
Jackie
Julie Corky. Like, you will. You will leave Girly Swirly University completely unradicalized but really annoying. And that's what we. That's the kind of promises we make at gsu.
- [12:48]
Claudia
Yeah. Our mascot is Y.
- [12:53]
Jackie
Literally. And by the way, we've never lost a football game because of Yancey.
- [12:58]
Claudia
Because we don't have a football team. Wait.
- [13:01]
Jackie
Also, speaking of television, last night was the world premiere of the final season of Yellowstone. I'm sure everyone watched it. We will do an official recap at the end of the show. But just letting you know that that's coming.
- [13:12]
Claudia
Yeah, I'm excited. I haven't spoken to you.
- [13:14]
Jackie
No, I.
- [13:15]
Claudia
But I was excited to be sat up with something to watch on a Sunday night.
- [13:19]
Jackie
And can we just put out a collective thanks to Paramount Network for airing it at 8:00? Like, 8:00 is such an underrated time. Like.
- [13:27]
Claudia
No, 8:00 is the time. 8:00 Eastern. Like, if you've got essential, you've got your own stuff going on. 8:00 Eastern is that time for prime time?
- [13:36]
Jackie
For prime time.
- [13:36]
Claudia
Like, every 9:00 and it's not 10:00.
- [13:39]
Jackie
Done with the show at 10:00. Like, that's too late on a weeknight on Sunday where we're all trying to reset and, like, get our weeks off to a good start. 8:00. Like, I can't really tell you how much I appreciated that.
- [13:48]
Claudia
Yeah, it was nice. I was able to start a book. I had some pie that I got from the farm, so I had some pie with my yellow.
- [13:54]
Jackie
I know what I did this weekend. I totally forgot. I read a whole book.
- [13:58]
Claudia
Which one?
- [13:59]
Jackie
The Many Lives of Mama Love. Yeah, it was Oprah's book choice. I loved it. I loved it. Like, it was just the thing to get me back, you know? Should I. I think you would like it.
- [14:11]
Claudia
I'm reading a Frida. Just a little palate cleanser to get me to the next one. I'm gonna put this on my Goodreads quickly or else I Will completely forget. I need a Goodreads for TV shows. Because when I always say I'll add it to my content plate, I don't put it anywhere. Anytime someone recommends me a book that I want to read. No, but, like, I don't write it down. Goodreads. I guess that's like, where all the different streamers. You could log into your Netflix and Jackie, it exists.
- [14:36]
Jackie
Gen Z is obsessed with it. I don't know if it's about TV shows or movies. I think it's both. Both. I think it's called Letterbox.
- [14:42]
Claudia
I need it for TV shows.
- [14:43]
Jackie
It definitely exists. Something like that.
- [14:46]
Claudia
I'll poke around.
- [14:47]
Jackie
I'm pretty sure. But it might just be movies.
- [14:50]
Claudia
I could do it for movies, too.
- [14:52]
Jackie
And I watched another Harry Potter movie. And I know, like, it's tough when I get really into something that, like, there's such a fan base of. Like, when I started watching Gilmore Girls, I never really told you guys that, like, I stopped watching it because I couldn't with those women. Like, they were just horrible women. Like, I just. I hated all of them. Like, one season, once you've seen one episode of Gilmore Girls, you've seen them all. Like, nothing happens.
- [15:12]
Claudia
I think that's also the point. Yeah.
- [15:13]
Jackie
And it's nice, but, like, for better. Stimulated a little bit more. And so I'm sorry, like, I didn't even want to follow up, like, with where my journey went because, like, so many people love it and I'm not trying to, like, take a big shit on it. And having the same sort of thing with Harry Potter. Maybe I, like, watched too much of it too quickly. Like, so we only watched one this week, and it was the Ardor of the Phoenix. And it was fine. It was good.
- [15:33]
Claudia
I'm just like, was the Phoenix ire?
- [15:36]
Jackie
I don't even know who the Phoenix was. How about that? Okay.
- [15:38]
Claudia
Did they arder it after all?
- [15:40]
Jackie
Like, I know why they called it the Goblet of Fire. Why did they call it the Order of the Phoenix? No, I literally don't know.
- [15:48]
Claudia
Couldn't tell you.
- [15:49]
Jackie
And I'm just like, I'm kind of getting over it. Or I need, like, a little bit of a break.
- [15:53]
Claudia
Yeah. Think about the fact that everybody waited years for the books to come out in between each other.
- [15:57]
Jackie
And movies, too.
- [15:57]
Claudia
Like, it's unnatural to watch them back to. Back to back.
- [16:00]
Jackie
Yeah. And it's not like, it's not that good, you know? Like, it's good. It's good, it's good. Oh, and. Oh, my God, now it's all coming back to me. I actually had, like, a very productive weekend. I met baby Reed.
- [16:14]
Claudia
Baby Dana from.
- [16:15]
Jackie
The Read and her baby Reed. I finally met him. He's so cute. So, like, that was kind of like the big moment of my weekend.
- [16:22]
Claudia
That's so cute.
- [16:23]
Jackie
He's really cute. It's also crazy to see, like, an actual child tending to a child. Do you know what I mean? It's very disarming.
- [16:28]
Claudia
They are proportionately mad.
- [16:30]
Jackie
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's just like dating aura. Like, not even the fact that she's 311. Like, her aura is also very childlike. She has this sort of.
- [16:39]
Claudia
Yeah.
- [16:39]
Jackie
Beautiful essence. That's very childlike. And so just to see her, like, burping a baby. Excuse me. What are you doing?
- [16:46]
Claudia
Yeah, it's shocking, like, when people, like, film their 8 year olds taking care of their new.
- [16:50]
Jackie
Like when you. When you have a kid at home and then you just get home from the hospital with your newborn baby, it's like this grown kid. Yeah. That's literally Dana. Yeah.
- [16:58]
Claudia
You have like an older child who can now help you with the younger one. It's a beautiful, beautiful thing.
- [17:02]
Jackie
That's. That's literally Dana older sister.
- [17:07]
Claudia
That's really.
- [17:08]
Jackie
We also have a lot to get into because after last week's episode wrapped, the Grammy noms came out and everyone was freaking.
- [17:14]
Claudia
Yes. I'm honestly glad we. We couldn't have fitted into Friday's episode. I was focused on one Brion Miss chicken fried thing.
- [17:21]
Jackie
When it came out, everybody was like, oh, Grammy noms. One second after you release the episode. I was actually relieved. I only had space in my brain on Friday for one thing and one thing only, and that was SpongeBob square chin.
- [17:31]
Claudia
Yeah. So everything happens the way it should.
- [17:34]
Jackie
Correct.
- [17:34]
Claudia
Everything happens for a reason. Turn correct. Trust the timing of your life.
- [17:39]
Jackie
I will.
- [17:40]
Claudia
Trust the timing of the toast.
- [17:42]
Jackie
I shall.
- [17:43]
Claudia
I feel like sometimes people don't trust the timing.
- [17:45]
Jackie
I don't know.
- [17:46]
Claudia
Do you feel. Do you find that a lot of.
- [17:48]
Jackie
Gripes with people in general? And I don't know if, like them not trusting timing is something the timing is. That's not one of my personal gripes, but to each their own, obviously.
- [17:57]
Claudia
I just find that that's something that people struggle with, but that's just what.
- [18:01]
Jackie
That's also something we're tackling at Girly Swirly University. It's kind of one of our core.
- [18:06]
Claudia
How to really enjoy a nalafi.
- [18:08]
Jackie
It's our core. One of our core Tenets of the university. It's one of the founding principles.
- [18:14]
Claudia
What is the founding principle of Girly swirly University?
- [18:17]
Jackie
That's a really good question. And that the answer is, what is the founding principle? Just, like, I don't know. That's like a hard question for like, this fake stupid university that we made up.
- [18:35]
Claudia
Like, you're being Nigel Rogan.
- [18:38]
Jackie
No, like, I think we've officially, like, I don't know. You question too close to the sun.
- [18:43]
Claudia
Like, I understand, but you remember I told you about that Joe Rogan clip. Will he'll be like, riffing with someone and then.
- [18:48]
Jackie
Yeah, no. And by the way, I don't know why, like, I'm out of the riff. Like, the riff, like, ended and now I'm like, back in reality. And I can't go back there. You can't make me.
- [18:57]
Claudia
I need to find this clip. I'm opposed to my story because I've experienced it. I'm. I'm podcast. I'm on Joe Rogan today.
- [19:03]
Jackie
Congratulations.
- [19:05]
Claudia
Thank you.
- [19:06]
Jackie
Shall we?
- [19:07]
Claudia

Claudia
T U R T L e. You're welcome. Our first story, Gram Anomination 2025. I know everyone's been waiting for it. Beyonce leads this year with 11 nominations as Taylor Swift, Chapel Roan, Sabrina Carpenter and Charlie X are also among the top nominees. So the nominees are.
- [24:04]
Jackie
Before we go for the big nominees, can we. Can I just say one thing? I think, like, one of the big stories of this nomination and I think the thing that I had seen most was Ariana Grande being snubbed. Eternal Sunshine is not nominated in any of the main four categories. She is nominated, I think, in, like, best Pop Vocal Album, which is where they, like, throw you a bone. Right.
- [24:23]
Claudia
Where they stick you.
- [24:24]
Jackie
And people are so mad and so furious. And I want to say I was not in the least bit surprised that she wasn't nominated. I actually. When you look at the level of talent and the amount of albums that, like, went so viral, and I'm talking about full bodies of work, like, I never even actively listened. I never sat down and listened to Charlie X's music. I probably know eight songs on her album just from, like, the grocery store and TikTok. Chapel Roan, Sabrina Taylor. Like, it really was the year of the pop girlies. And all these four categories include every genre. They include country, R and B. Yeah. So I think to assume that Ariana would have been in any of those main categories, like, is a false assumption. I think the album was good. I think there was one song that really took off, but I don't think the whole body of work, really, for most people, not her fans. Like, for most people. People didn't receive it like that. Like, they just listened to We Can't Be Friends, like, on the radio.
- [25:12]
Claudia
Yeah. So I really liked the album, and I would have been totally happy to see it get nominated for something big, but understand that it was a huge, stacked year. And so it didn't get that because, like, there's a million categories and there were other big pop albums. I think the bigger snub is we can't be friends not getting nominated for song or record of the year when it not only was such a popular song, but musically, like, it is sonically so fucking good.
- [25:35]
Jackie
So funny. I didn't even. It didn't even cross my mind. Like, it's a good song. I actually sat down and went out of my way to listen to it. The album, too. But when you really think about, from a pop perspective, how competitive it was this year, like, that album just really did not make the cut. Like, even this year, I feel like we've been talking so much about the pop girlies. Chapel, Sabrina Taylor. Like, we never said Ariana. Like, we literally never did. Every time we're talking about, like, the battle of the pop girls, like, That's a good song. I don't even think it really had such. It had a lot of success, but not when you compare it to, like, other big songs that were on there.
- [26:07]
Claudia
We were talking about it in, like, Q1, Q2 of this year. Ever since the summer, it's been Chapel, Sabrina, Charlie, maybe even, like, olivia. But in Q1, Q2, Ari's album had come out. Casey Musgraves, who was thoroughly snubbed because, to me, like, she put out a really nice album that could have been nominated but wasn't. I think it was another one that just, like, didn't hit that.
- [26:26]
Jackie
I don't think, Like, I don't think that snubbed, like, just because you put out an album.
- [26:30]
Claudia
Snub ii, like, not snub because there's no one here. I would take out. That's the thing. Like, if you want someone's to be nominated, tell me who. You deserve it. And I can't say I would take out Chapel Room because I didn't listen to it. I would take out Billiards. I didn't listen to it. And so.
- [26:46]
Jackie
But you can't deny the impact, right?
- [26:48]
Claudia
I can only judge the albums that I listen to. And if something that I listened to I thought wasn't good enough, I could say you could take that out. But I can't say about, you know, I didn't listen to Andre 3000. I don't know if you should take.
- [26:57]
Jackie
Right.
- [26:58]
Claudia
No, you probably.
- [26:58]
Jackie
Right, you probably shouldn't. And also, like, those categories are meant to represent, like, a breadth of genres, not just the music we listen to.
- [27:04]
Claudia
Right. So, like, of the music of the pop albums that made it to album of the year and the ones that I listened to, like, no, I wouldn't. There's only space for so many things. But, like, I thought Casey Musgraves released a beautiful album, as did Ariana, but it was just a stacked year for albums. So it's not like a snubbing necessarily. But to not really get that in one big category and just get pop vocal, that's a little snub because they could have thrown in a best pop vocal performance.
- [27:29]
Jackie
I feel like when you're at a certain level and you put out music, there is this expectation from, like, your fans that you would just get nominated because of that. And I feel like Ariana is at that level where, like, every time she releases music, it's like a big deal. It was good. You know, you could objectively. It was good music. You can't, like, really Criticize it. It was well received. So it's like, same with crazy Casey Musgrave. She's a person at a certain level who released an album, and there's just this expectation that you would be included in these categories. And I actually think that's false. Like, just because you are at that level and you release an album doesn't automatically mean that you just get put in those categories.
- [27:58]
Claudia
But Casey Musgrave's last album, I wouldn't have said the same thing. Like, this was a really, really good album. The songs were.
- [28:05]
Jackie
But you also have to think about life, how it sells. Right. That's what that famous Kanye line. You gotta say. They say you gotta sell it to snatch the Grammy. Like, how it performs is a huge indicator of whether you're included or not. And I do not think that Casey's most recent album performed well, given her, you know, history.
- [28:23]
Claudia
Yeah.
- [28:24]
Jackie
So that.
- [28:25]
Claudia
That. Yeah. But it's not a People's Choice Awards.
- [28:27]
Jackie
Right.
- [28:27]
Claudia
Also just about Edit, like, their take on music. And anyways, I just think there were a lot of. Really.
- [28:35]
Jackie
It was a good year for music this year.
- [28:37]
Claudia
So next year is like, you could try next year.
- [28:39]
Jackie
Try again. You could try Sears. Oh, and notably missing from every single category is Dula Peep. And like, her small but mighty fandom is enraged. But I think that, like, most listeners of music are not surprised to. What was the album called? Radical Optimism or something.
- [28:55]
Claudia
The.
- [28:56]
Jackie
The song that, you know, you probably know is Houdini, which was a bop. You know, she's known for making bops. But I think it references, like, what we've been saying about her a lot is like, there's really no, like, interpersonal connection between her and her fans. Like, we don't know anything about her. Like, she just is kind of like this hit maker and that's it.
- [29:12]
Claudia
Yeah. It's like what Casey Musgrades doesn't have. Yes, it's hard to have. Dua Lipa doesn't have is what Casey Musgrave.
- [29:19]
Jackie
It's hard to have everybody listening to your music and everyone caring about your music too. Like, they each have one.
- [29:27]
Claudia
Yeah. So let's get into some of the big categories. Record of the year. And so this is always the song that's like, it's not about what was the most popular song of the production song of the year. It's about Production one now and then the Beatles. Seriously, what year?
- [29:43]
Jackie
Like, what are they talking about? The Beatles are dead, Claudia.
- [29:45]
Claudia
I don't know.
- [29:46]
Jackie
And they don't do shit.
- [29:47]
Claudia
Like, that's like, seriously, I didn't hear it at Publix. It wasn't agreed. Oh, but it's about sound. 2. Texas holds them.
- [29:55]
Jackie
Beyonce. That was.
- [29:57]
Claudia
That was everywhere. 3. Espresso, Sabrina. 4. 360. Charlie. How does that go? Because I don't have that experience with Brad. To me, Brad is so Internet. Like, I don't so Internet.
- [30:10]
Jackie
And by the way, if you told me the title of a song, I don't know, you play it for me. I know all the words. Like, I actually don't know which one.
- [30:15]
Claudia
Okay.
- [30:15]
Jackie
Oh, wait. 60. No, I don't know. I literally don't know. Like, okay.
- [30:20]
Claudia
Five birds of a feather. Billie Eilish. That's a really beautiful song. 6. Not Like Us. Kendrick Lamar.
- [30:28]
Jackie
I feel like that might win.
- [30:30]
Claudia
How does it go?
- [30:31]
Jackie
I like. It's one of those ones also, like, play it. And I know the words, but I don't. But it's like, it's everywhere.
- [30:38]
Claudia
Seven. Good luck, babe.
- [30:40]
Jackie
Chapel, Rome also, it's a very. It's such a competitive year.
- [30:44]
Claudia
An eight Fortnight by Tailored it's competitive because it's tailored.
- [30:47]
Jackie
But no, I don't think it's competitive.
- [30:49]
Claudia
I start the album at track number two.
- [30:51]
Jackie
I don't think it's competitive. And it's so interesting how TTPD is in all these big categories, as it 1000% should be. And it's. I think it actually has a chance to win some of them. And the lead single that they put forth and they obviously you have to nominate your. You put yourself up for nominations. Like, they don't just choose you. She put Fourth Fortnite in a bunch of different categories, and that's like the one she ran with. And I. And I don't think it's even remotely, like, emblematic of how good the album is.
- [31:15]
Claudia
So what do you think will win record of the year? What do you think should win record of the year? Wow.
- [31:20]
Jackie
You and these, like, deep questions today. I don't know. Like, we do this every time.
- [31:24]
Claudia
Like, what would you vote for as a member? What do you think will actually get the award? I think Billie Eilish will get the award.
- [31:30]
Jackie
No, I don't think she will. It was not like, Billie Eilish had a lot of success this year, but it was not her year. Do you know what I mean?
- [31:35]
Claudia
Birds of a Feather year. It was Birds of a Feather year.
- [31:38]
Jackie
Like, was it.
- [31:38]
Claudia
I think she'll get it. And I have something. I have something crazy to say about Espresso. I love Espresso. I love Sabrina, but it's like, I don't think as a record, I think it has a better chance of being song of the Year. And it should be song of the Year, but it's not record.
- [31:52]
Jackie
I don't disagree.
- [31:53]
Claudia
Like, the grammars are wrong.
- [31:55]
Jackie
I wouldn't be surprised.
- [31:56]
Claudia
That's that me. Espresso.
- [31:57]
Jackie
If it's Charlie or Chapel.
- [32:03]
Claudia
Charlie.
- [32:04]
Jackie
I wouldn't be surprised if it's Charlie or Chapel.
- [32:08]
Claudia
Okay. I really can't say.
- [32:11]
Jackie
It's tough. It's. I feel like some years it's so obvious.
- [32:14]
Claudia
I think it will be and should be birds of a feather.
- [32:17]
Jackie
That's so random. I feel like it's, like, not even in contention. Like, they threw her a bone.
- [32:22]
Claudia
I think, like, okay, I don't know what.
- [32:26]
Jackie
I also think not like us could win, but continue.
- [32:32]
Claudia
Album of the year 1. New Blue Sun Andre 3000 2. Cowboy Carter, Beyonce 3. Short and Sweet Sabrina 4. Brat Charlie 5. Digesse Volume 4 Jacob Collier 6. Hit Me Hard. So I'm sorry to Jacob. I'm sorry about all that. 6. Like, really sorry. 6. Hit me hard and soft Billie Eilish 7. The rise and fall of a Midwest princess chap 8. Tortured Poets Department LURD I'm gonna put.
- [33:02]
Jackie
In my prediction as Jesse Vol. 4 by Jacob Collier Twin. I think that will win and it should.
- [33:09]
Claudia
Just to make up for what I just.
- [33:10]
Jackie
No.
- [33:10]
Claudia
Okay.
- [33:11]
Jackie
So if it were up to me, like, the album of my year was Tortured Poets Department. I actually don't think she will win this year. She has won, like, six or seven times. She'll be fine. I think that. And I also think Short and Sweet could win, but I don't think it will. I think when you look at the year, like, the album we were talking about the most, like, it was brat here. Brat. This brought that brat. Like, it was brat.
- [33:32]
Claudia
That would be huge if she won. I think who should. Who would I vote for as a member of the voting board?
- [33:37]
Jackie
Sabrina.
- [33:38]
Claudia
I love this album. Can't stop listening to it. Who I think will win is Beyonce because I think to, like, give a dig to the CMAs for not even nominating her. And also, like, last year when Jay Z made his speech, he was saying how, like, Beyonce's the most awarded female artist yet she doesn't have album of the year. So I think they'll, like, write that. I mean, all right. Gh.
- [34:01]
Jackie
Okay. Like, it's wrong that she doesn't have album of the year, but that doesn't make this album, like, the winner.
- [34:06]
Claudia
No, I agree. But I'm just saying Grammys do that.
- [34:08]
Jackie
Like they.
- [34:09]
Claudia
I think no, they've been doing that recently where like every category. No one really like sweeps anymore. Everyone wins one award and I think like politically they're gonna do Cowboy Carter.
- [34:19]
Jackie
That's a good call. Although I don't think it was the album of the year.
- [34:22]
Claudia
So what. What do you to ask my hard question again. What and should brat will win? You think? And what should.
- [34:29]
Jackie
I answered your question already. I said torture poets department. But Brett.
- [34:32]
Claudia
Oh for you. Okay, okay. Next Song of the year. This is such a great category because like every year needs a song and we need to decide what it was. Song of the year is first a bar song. Shabuzi. Now ain't that the truth? Two birds of a feather. Billy. That really was a song of the year. Die with a Smile. Number three, Bruno Mars and Lady Gaga. Two of my faves. But it was not the song of the year. Unfortunately.
- [34:55]
Jackie
Two of my faves would take a bullet for either of them. The song is so good. But like what the is this song doing here?
- [35:01]
Claudia
Listen, I think I just wanted to.
- [35:02]
Jackie
Came out a week ago. Like it's so crazy.
- [35:05]
Claudia
Nobody listens to it. Like except for us.
- [35:07]
Jackie
Yeah.
- [35:08]
Claudia
Number four, Fortnight, the Lurd. Number five. Good luck babe Chap. Number six. Not like Us. Kendrick Lamar. Seven. Please, please, please. Sabrina. Eight, Texas. Hold them, Beyonce.
- [35:19]
Jackie
Shocking to see Sabrina represented in this category with Please Please please and not Espresso.
- [35:24]
Claudia
Espresso is the song of.
- [35:25]
Jackie
I agree. So. But the thing is you again you nominate your own music for like you put forward confusion. So that's odd. Although I do think the song of the year was Summer. Pull me up a Double Shot of Whiskey. I think Shabuzi should and will win.
- [35:39]
Claudia
You'll never see me complain about that. I think that espresso should have been nominated for song of the year. Please, please would have been better for record of the year and I would honestly be happy and or, and or understand anyone winning this. Agreed.
- [35:53]
Jackie
But I'm putting my money on Shaboos.
- [35:55]
Claudia
But I also could see Birds of a feather. Birds of a feather is gonna win something. It really.
- [35:59]
Jackie
It was everywhere. I like it was everywhere. But I don't know, maybe I just like ignored it. Cuz I deeply dislike Billie Eilish Nobody.
- [36:06]
Claudia
Nobody ignored it more than me.
- [36:08]
Jackie
Yeah, like nobody.
- [36:09]
Claudia
And they made it really hard. Like I kind of ignored Brat and like that wasn't that hard.
- [36:12]
Jackie
No, I'm sorry. I completely disagree. Brad is was unignorable but maybe it's because I'm kind of online, I think.
- [36:19]
Claudia
And more tick tock. Like birds of a feather permeated reels. Every time I post a reel, they're like, want to use birds with feather? I'm like, kind of. No. Next. Best new artist. Always such a fun category. 1. Benson Boone. Par Delicious. A fake. Lewis Capaldi. I like that. 2. Sabrina Carpenter with her sixth studio album. 3. Dochi. 4. Krung Bin. 5. Ray. 6. Chapel Roan. 7. Shabuzi. 8. Teddy Swift.
- [36:55]
Jackie
This is tough because there are so many people in this category worthy, so many Sabrina Shaboos. Teddy Swims. Ray. But honestly, Chapel. No Chapel's gonna win. Like, it's not even a question.
- [37:06]
Claudia
Yeah. I. I will understand if she wins. I think she could and should.
- [37:10]
Jackie
Yeah.
- [37:10]
Claudia
And I think she'll be around for a very long time and like, that. That this will age well. You know, sometimes it doesn't age well. We're like, that was best new artist and. And they beat.
- [37:17]
Jackie
So, like a roundup of incredibly famous people who lost best new artists. Like, I think Celine Dion lost. Like, it's not an accurate predictor of who is going to make it big.
- [37:27]
Claudia
Yeah.
- [37:28]
Jackie
And sometimes when they do best new artists, they have the one from the previous year announce it and I'm like, who the hell is that?
- [37:33]
Claudia
Right, right, right. So, yeah, there's a lot of good choices. Next, let's do best pop vocal album.
- [37:42]
Jackie
Okay.
- [37:43]
Claudia
1. Short and Sweet Sabrina. 2. Hit Me Hard and Soft Billy. 3. Eternal Sunshine Ari. For the rise and fall of a Midwest Princess Chapel ROAN. 5. TTTBD.
- [37:54]
Jackie
TTT I feel like maybe tailored would win this one. Like, it really was like the greatest pop vocal album. But, like, when you. When you think about, like, album of the year, maybe it wasn't. But I think she has a chance here. Although I don't know how you get nominated here and in best album and.
- [38:10]
Claudia
Then you don't wait.
- [38:11]
Jackie
Right?
- [38:12]
Claudia
Yeah. I think it should be short and sweet, period. This is where I'll say, like, should and would and could be.
- [38:18]
Jackie
Yeah.
- [38:19]
Claudia
That's the best pop. Pop and pop vocal album.
- [38:23]
Jackie
I agree.
- [38:24]
Claudia
The pop vocals are off the charts.
- [38:26]
Jackie
I agree.
- [38:27]
Claudia
For Ms. Sabrine, let's get to the country category.
- [38:30]
Jackie
I wish we would.
- [38:32]
Claudia
I wish you would. What song is that?
- [38:35]
Jackie
I have literally no idea.
- [38:38]
Claudia
Me neither. Okay. Country. Best country song won the Architect by Casey. Okay. I don't know what's coming next, but, like, that has my vote. Even just for the one line. How many Times did we say that line this year, Jackie, See what's coming.
- [38:50]
Jackie
Next, and you'll take back what you say.
- [38:55]
Claudia
2. I'm kind of becoming one of those people. Like, I think we're all winners here. 3. I am not okay by Jelly Roll.
- [39:04]
Jackie
Literally, me every morning. 4.
- [39:06]
Claudia
I had some help. Post Malone and Morgan Wallen. Yeah, they worked hard on that. Five. Texas. Hold him. Beyonce.
- [39:13]
Jackie
You know, this is a competitive category.
- [39:16]
Claudia
Yeah.
- [39:16]
Jackie
But when I think of the country.
- [39:18]
Claudia
Song, it's a bar.
- [39:19]
Jackie
It's a bar song.
- [39:20]
Claudia
It's a bar song. It's got to be a bar song. Next. Best country album. 1. Cowboy Carter. Beyonce.
- [39:27]
Jackie
2.
- [39:28]
Claudia
F. 1. Charlie and Post Malone. 3. Deeper. Well, Casey Musgraves. Okay, so she got nominated.
- [39:33]
Jackie
Country.
- [39:34]
Claudia
She's back to her roots. Okay, so it wasn't a total snubbery. She's on our.
- [39:37]
Jackie
It wasn't a total snubbery.
- [39:40]
Claudia
4. Higher. Chris Stapleton. 5. And probably the winner. Whirlwind Whirlwind by Laney Wilson.
- [39:48]
Jackie
Who should win either, which is crazy because neither of them are true concierge artists, but it should be Beyonce or Post Malone. And honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if it was Post Malone. There are so many songs from that album that are so popular.
- [39:58]
Claudia
I love that album.
- [39:59]
Jackie
Excellent.
- [40:01]
Claudia
My favorite one is the one. I think it's with Tim McGraw randomly.
- [40:05]
Jackie
My favorite one is the Blake Shelton one.
- [40:08]
Claudia
Interesting.
- [40:08]
Jackie
Somebody pour me a drink Somebody give me a sign I'm about to get on a road.
- [40:18]
Claudia
Let me tell you what my favorite one is in case you want to listen to it. Wrong ones. Oh, cruising in the Tesla with that. But them wrong ones. Keep looking.
- [40:28]
Jackie
I feel like we covered most of the categories, but I wanted to talk about something because I saw KFC from Barstool, made a video about it, and it was such a good call. Best comedy album. They had Ricky Gervais, Dave Chappelle, Jim Gaffigan, Nikki Glazer, and Trevor Noah. And he was like, where the fuck is the Shane Gillis? Like, this is such a snub. Like, really, when you think about comedy specials and this comedy albums are audio versions of a special. So when you think about what special, like, really took the world by storm. Shane Gillis's was huge, and it launched his entire career. Like, he became so mainstream, successful. And as you were saying, it's only a snub if there's someone in here that does. Trevor Noah, raise your hand. Raise your hand if you watch Trevor Noah. Special. Like, who is actively seeking out Trevor Noah Content. Nobody. Like, it was. It's such an insult. He's actually, like. He's not even, like, I want to say, like, a popular comedian. He's like a popular celebrity host. But, like, really, no. No one's actively seeking out his specials and his albums, and it's actually an insult.
- [41:30]
Claudia
Yeah.
- [41:30]
Jackie
Like, the comedians who are really selling out insane venues, getting Netflix specials like the Tim Dylan's of the world, Andrew Schultz, like, people who actually make waves and conversations. That's the point of comedy. You might think it's, like, controversial or offensive, but, like, that's what comedy is, and that's what comedy does. And, like, seriously, I didn't even hear. I didn't even know Trevor Noah released a special. Like, okay. And most of these specials I didn't watch, but I saw them on, you know, top Netflix. I did see Ricky Gervais and I did see Nikki Glazers. But, like, these are people who are constantly making waves and they have huge fan bases. Like, it's giving industry plant.
- [42:05]
Claudia
Oh, for sure. And it's just giving, like, Grammys, staying behind in some categories.
- [42:11]
Jackie
And this is not reflective of, like, comedy when you. Because comedy is so Internet, right? Like, so many comedians didn't really come up the traditional way anymore. They're doing, like, podcasts and they go viral and, like, kind of like, Matt Rife. Matt Rife shouldn't have been nominated, but you know what I mean? And they're just like, kind of.
- [42:27]
Claudia
He could have been. Did he put out a special?
- [42:28]
Jackie
He did, and it wasn't well received. Like, it was like. So I just feel like it's totally missing, like, a huge part of the Internet, the comedy scene, which is the Internet. Honestly, Hannah Burner should have been nominated. When I think about, like, specials that I like, people were talking about Trevor Noah.
- [42:48]
Claudia
Their comedy vertical nominators are obviously just, like, ancient. Yeah.
- [42:54]
Jackie
Yeah.
- [42:55]
Claudia
Well, the Grammys are poised to be, like, a very good viewing because the girlies should be there. There'll be good performances. And this bodes well for music's biggest night.
- [43:04]
Jackie
They say that at every award show.
- [43:07]
Claudia
What do you think is music's biggest night?
- [43:10]
Jackie
Probably Girly Swirly's night out, December 8th.
- [43:14]
Claudia
Just no holiday spectacular, you guys. We are doing a jizzno, and it's actually really coming. It's, like, less than a month away. It is in Hollywood, Florida, and it's December 8th, and it's gonna be so much fun. And if you haven't gotten your tickets yet, like, treat yourself to a little jizz no.
- [43:31]
Jackie
Just jizz.
- [43:33]
Claudia
No. Are you ready for our next story? In no particular order, because Ms. Lurd, Taylor Swift attended the Chiefs v. Other team game last night and a lot was happening, like with her security detail. Lots of little things happening. So she attended the game with her parents.
- [43:56]
Jackie
Always and forever be one of my favorite things about her, like the way she loves, like she's the coolest person on the planet. She could have brought the president, like she could do anything she wants. And like the way she chooses to exclusively hang out with her parents. Like, I'm sorry it's such queenie behavior.
- [44:10]
Claudia
Yeah. She was wearing a little suit. She actually changed up her look because she would like has been doing like sexy wag vibe and. And here she's doing still sexy because she had her corset on, but she was wearing a little two piece set with her hair and a little.
- [44:25]
Jackie
She looked very much like the owner of the team. Like she looked very presidential in a sexy way. It's not what you would think, like, oh, watch my boyfriend play basketball. What is it? Football. She looked great.
- [44:36]
Claudia
Sometimes the wags switch up their looks, you know, she looked great.
- [44:39]
Jackie
I'm. I feel like I'm very critical of her looks. And while I thought it was like a little like not the, not the. My only critique is that like it's not what I would imagine for a football game, but objectively she looked amazing.
- [44:52]
Claudia
Yeah. So her security team was actually. They were caught like, like telling photographers stand up.
- [44:58]
Jackie
Yeah.
- [44:58]
Claudia
Yeah. But it was because she was wearing a skirt. They didn't like sometimes when you take from below, they didn't want to get like pictures of her skirt.
- [45:03]
Jackie
Of course.
- [45:04]
Claudia
Makes sense. And then also, yeah. Telling everyone to stand back. Which. Yeah, stand back.
- [45:10]
Jackie
Man, look at the hell away.
- [45:11]
Claudia
The lurd is coming through.
- [45:12]
Jackie
The learn is coming through. Travis's team is still undefeated. They're like 9 0. There was like a little. They went on like a technicality last night. Did you see?
- [45:20]
Claudia
No. So you're saying her travel made it to the big game?
- [45:22]
Jackie
Well, it looks like he's going to make it to the building big game.
- [45:24]
Claudia
You think he also like tied some big record of Titans and he scored another touchdown.
- [45:30]
Jackie
He had been through like a little bit of a drought, but the team was able to keep going without him. And he got his, he got his mojo back. Yeah, literally. And yeah, last night they were like about to lose but they like went on like a field. They like blocked the other team's field goal, which is like very rare, I think.
- [45:46]
Claudia
Oh, okay, that's cool. I thought you were gonna say it was, like, a call and then it's giving. NFL scripted.
- [45:51]
Jackie
No, but. But, yeah, I think it is really crazy that they're still undefeated. It is giving. Scripted.
- [45:57]
Claudia
Yeah.
- [45:57]
Jackie
Well, the thing is, like, the teams that, like, could have beat them, like, the 49ers. Christian McCaffrey has been out for, like, six weeks. He's back now, but when they played the Chiefs, he was out.
- [46:05]
Claudia
Are they not in the same league? Wait, didn't they play in the super bowl together?
- [46:09]
Jackie
Yeah, but last year had a Super bowl rematch, like, a week or two ago. Right, right, right. And the Niners lost, but Christian was out.
- [46:15]
Claudia
Like, we do redo at the Super Bowl.
- [46:19]
Jackie
Correct.
- [46:20]
Claudia
I'm.
- [46:20]
Jackie
So where's the super bowl this year? It's literally so far away. Last year was in Vegas.
- [46:28]
Claudia
Why do I feel like it's in Miami?
- [46:30]
Jackie
No, it was recently in Miami. I feel like it's in Arizona.
- [46:33]
Claudia
Super Bowl.
- [46:34]
Jackie
Oh, no, it was. It was just in Arizona. Is it. Where is it?
- [46:40]
Claudia
It? Lee, Where?
- [46:43]
Jackie
Illinois. New Orleans.
- [46:45]
Claudia
New Orleans.
- [46:46]
Jackie
Nola we're no less Jackie. We're nola. NOLA kill us if we tell that story.
- [46:57]
Claudia
I don't know. It's like other people's. Like, it's other people's story, too.
- [47:01]
Jackie
Okay, I'm saying it, but I'll protect the identities. It's not even a bad story. When Olivia was in, like, the seventh.
- [47:05]
Claudia
Grade, we're just, like, telling everything Olivia.
- [47:08]
Jackie
Ever did when we were growing up. Olivia has been our source of inspiration. Like, is that a big deal?
- [47:12]
Claudia
For many, many years.
- [47:13]
Jackie
So when Olivia was in middle school, she was, like, a part of this clique. It was four girls. And I won't say their names, but their letters of each of their names started N, O, D, A. Olivia's obviously the O. So they would call themselves, like, no duh. And then, like, they came up with this, like, kind of cute little catchphrase slash slogan. They were like, we're no duh. No duh.
- [47:32]
Claudia
Duh.
- [47:33]
Jackie
And so me, like, what are you, dumb? No duh. And the way it stuck with me, like, my whole life, I'm always.
- [47:41]
Claudia
Olivia can't breathe without us, without it sticking with us.
- [47:45]
Jackie
I'm trying to think if I remember the names of everyone. I think I do. I won't say. I don't say.
- [47:50]
Claudia
To protect.
- [47:51]
Jackie
Yeah.
- [47:52]
Claudia
Their pride.
- [47:52]
Jackie
I'll say the end. Because she's, like, cool. I feel like she listens to the toast. Like, I. I don't. I don't keep in touch with the D or the A touch with the duh. The duh. But no, like, Olivia still like is like besties. So like Natalie.
- [48:03]
Claudia
Natalie, she's been unmasked.
- [48:05]
Jackie
Yeah. Good luck finding her.
- [48:08]
Claudia
Are you ready for our next story?
- [48:10]
Jackie
No duh.
- [48:12]
Claudia
It's a little star studded news.
- [48:14]
Jackie
Oh, wait, what?
- [48:15]
Claudia
Number three.
- [48:16]
Jackie
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- [48:17]
Claudia
Sit down.
- [48:17]
Jackie
Okay.
- [48:18]
Claudia
Sit your ass down.
- [48:19]
Jackie
Yeah, sorry.
- [48:21]
Claudia
Leonardo DiCaprio celebrated his star studded 50th birthday with the stars Brad Pitt, Robert De Niro, and Steven Spielberg.
- [48:29]
Jackie
And at a pro.
- [48:32]
Claudia
Your girl, Ines de Ramon. Brad Pitts.
- [48:35]
Jackie
Plus discover me, Ramon. Discover me.
- [48:39]
Claudia
So he had a star studded private party. Like the kind that, you know, you dream about, they write movies about with all of his favorite co stars. All the. All the Hollywood A listers were out last night at a private house for Leo's birthday party. Paris Hilton was there. Katy Perry, Orlando Bloom, Robin Thick. I won't say the next one. Skip to Jamie Foxx. Mark Ruffalo. Mark Ruffalo was the next one. I didn't want to ruin an otherwise perfect lovely evening story with a little rough. And they're calling he's a Marvel star. They put him in a superhero movie.
- [49:23]
Jackie
Yeah, Jackie, he's a Marvel star. I'm an athlete. Like, we're all just lying.
- [49:27]
Claudia
That's really crazy that he does marvel.
- [49:29]
Jackie
It's really crazy that he does. Does like that he like, does what he does. I don't want this to come about Mark Ruffalo. Like, it's not like I'm not. No, I'm not donating my platform to my nemeses.
- [49:42]
Claudia
Yeah. So there was like a big Hollywood party this weekend and you guys weren't invited. Yeah.
- [49:47]
Jackie
And to be honest, like, ever since I heard about what goes down at like, diddy parties, I no longer, like, feel fomo from events like these. Like, I don't even want to know what happened at this party. Like, I think these people are disgusting.
- [49:57]
Claudia
No, I completely agree. They don't have the luster that they used to have.
- [50:01]
Jackie
Sometimes they do. Like when I see like Taylor hanging out with like the swirlies like Sabrina, like, I'm like, oh, I wish I was there. Kelly Teller.
- [50:07]
Claudia
That's not what this is. This is like serious Hollywood elite. Like, these are the people.
- [50:12]
Jackie
These are the people.
- [50:13]
Claudia
I completely like who it's like, these are the people.
- [50:16]
Jackie
Yeah, they've got like, you know, unscrupled big Katie rolling through. Like, you just don't know what's about to go down this is like one.
- [50:22]
Claudia
Of those Hollywood parties that at one point you probably were like, oh, the stars are out. And now it's like, yucky, run for your life.
- [50:29]
Jackie
Yucky. Run for your fucking life. Like, the way I felt nothing except just like seeing that picture of Inez de Ramon and Brad leaving, like, love to see them, you know, out and about. Other than that, like, I felt nothing. Yeah, there's something. Yeah, there's something very Hollywood about this particular group of people. Like, it's very A list. It's very Hollywood. And it definitely gives me the heebie jeebies knowing what I know now. Yeah.
- [50:51]
Claudia
In a bad way. Now that we know things that we know.
- [50:54]
Jackie
Yeah. And that's not to say everybody there is complicit, but.
- [50:57]
Claudia
But never said it.
- [50:58]
Jackie
It's just the same vibe. Do you agree?
- [51:00]
Claudia
It's a vibe.
- [51:01]
Jackie
Yeah. Release the lists.
- [51:04]
Claudia
Release the list.
- [51:05]
Jackie
These people, Jackie, these people are partying while they still can.
- [51:11]
Claudia
Yeah, I guess if they're already like, if it's going down, right?
- [51:14]
Jackie
No, this, I will go down with this ship.
- [51:18]
Claudia
But if I were like a newcomer in Hollywood, I would stay away from these parties.
- [51:22]
Jackie
Not even a newcomer. If I was somebody in Hollywood with a moral compass.
- [51:25]
Claudia
No, but it's like if you've already been like a partygoer. Yeah, but we were saying the other day how like I could never implicate like Sabrine in the, like the toxicity of Hollywood because she just got there.
- [51:34]
Jackie
And she wasn't there. Look, was she at that party last time?
- [51:37]
Claudia
Right, right, right.
- [51:39]
Jackie
Yeah.
- [51:39]
Claudia
Just hang out with your home friends. Okay?
- [51:41]
Jackie
Like literally.
- [51:42]
Claudia
Maybe call up your camera and mix it up.
- [51:44]
Jackie
It's so true.
- [51:46]
Claudia
But stay away from nights such as these.
- [51:50]
Jackie

Like, let me just tell you. You have to see it and feel it to believe it. You will truly. And I could say you will not want to buy another blanket ever again after buying Mickey Couture. And I could tell you, I discovered Mickey Couture. Like, I would say now a year ago, I've not bought another blanket since they are so soft, so luxurious. Really feels like cuddling with a cloud. Like, it is heavenly. It's just different. I've never, ever experienced a blanket like this in my life. Our family is obsessed. When we went to the Hamptons, like, we were renting this house, and it was like, a nice house and they had nice blankets, but, like, it wasn't the same. We literally called up Mickey Couture. We're like, listen, send some blankets. Like, we're. It's.
- [54:04]
Claudia
They send a truck.
- [54:06]
Jackie
It's dire over here. And I took them all home. With me. The one on the end of my bed is from that. They are the creators of the original Hugs blanket.

They donated over 30,000 mini minkies to NICUs all across the country every year. It is the best blanket ever. They have little ones for kids. I also use that little one in Romeo's crate. It's like the perfect size because Romeo, Romeo deserves the best and Romeo by the way, once we were in the Hamptons, Romeo would not go back to sleeping on a regular blanket. He comes into my room and lays at the edge.
- [54:42]
Claudia

Our next story. A little update in the Brianna Chicken Fry Zach Bryan saga as new music has been dropped by Dave Portnoy. He put out a song called Country Diddy that has a lot in it, a couple new things that we are understanding from the situation. And Warner Brothers kept take Warner Music kept taking down his song Smallest man. So he had to write another song called Country Diddy. And it's really the double entendre is quite pargy because it's like it's a country Diddy, a little country song about a guy who writes country ditties. And then he's also calling him like.
- [57:05]
Jackie
The country P. Diddy.
- [57:07]
Claudia
The country, the P. Diddy of country. It's Diddy Double T and Diddy Double.
- [57:13]
Jackie
D. Now there's actually been quite a few updates in the Brianna saga because Brianna is like officially free and she is not holding back. Like, she really wants to speak her truth. So she is posting a lot of content. She's responding to comments. I think the kind of like remaining shoe to fall in this whole saga is like, where does Brianna's best friend Grace fall into this? Now for those who don't know, they're like best friends from home. When Brianna started blowing up at Barstool, she got her friend a job there and they co host the Plan Bri podcast. She's been on a ton of like the BFF's pods. She's now, like getting into comedy. She opens for Whitney Cummings. So, like, Brianna really like brought her along on this journey and as the relationship progressed, like, it was becoming very clear to, like, their fans that There was, like, a distance between them. And of course, now knowing what we know, like, that's textbook abuse. Isolating this person from everyone they know and love. And so everyone's really, like, sort of waiting to hear from Grace. Now that we've heard everything from Brianna, it's like, well, what happened with Grace? And in the song that Dave just released, it said that he never liked Grace, and he went and wrote a song a this. His song Pink Skies is apparently based on Grace's life. So the story I'm hearing is that, like, Grace's grandmother died, and Briana, like, had to force Zach to go to the funeral with her. And he was, like, so mad. He, like, ran home after, like, making him do things he didn't want to do, and wrote a song, Pink Skies, that is, like, about Grace's life, I guess.
- [58:28]
Claudia
And that's, like, one of his big songs, right? I guess that title sounds familiar to me. And, yeah, Brianna commented. She said, because I forced him to go to her grandma's funeral, he screamed at me, then wrote it that night, which is so crazy. And then Grace has spoken. This is what she said, because there were. People were then thinking, well, oh, Grace probably took the video.
- [58:46]
Jackie
So, by the way, it was. It was a very good theory because Grace has not said anything. And, like, honestly, it's giving NDA. So then people are putting together that story I told on the podcast on Friday that Brianna had said that, you know, they had filmed Zach having a breakdown for Brianna, and then he got so mad about being filmed. People had then made the connection, like, well, maybe Grace was the one that filmed him. She was probably at the birthday party anyway. And maybe he had her sign an NDA to never release that thing, never talk about it, and that's why she's been so silent. So people kind of, like, made peace with that theory being, like, that's actually definitely true because it's a good theory.
- [59:17]
Claudia
Yeah. So then she posted on Instagram story a picture of people around a bonfire and said, I wish I didn't even have to say this, but there is no world where I would ever take money from that clown to shut me up. It's been quite the year, and I'm still not ready to talk about it online. I'm just happy Brie is free from that piece of shit. That's all for now. Not that. I mean, I didn't say it before, but I didn't really know these rumors had so much credence. But I didn't think that that's what happened. I think Brianna just spoke, like, five minutes ago. So, like, why would Grace speak one before or her or two? I think they'll talk about it together on their podcast together at some point when they're both feeling ready to talk about it. But I think, like, Grace probably has stuff that she saw and an experience of her own.
- [59:55]
Jackie
But, like, it's not about Grace right now.
- [59:57]
Claudia
Rihanna, like, process all of that publicly and privately first before she, like, joins the pile.
- [60:02]
Jackie
I completely agree. The first thing is that actually in her statement, I don't think if she had taken money, like, there's nothing wrong with that. There's no shame in that. Like, I don't think if that had been the case, like, I would have completely understood it. Second of all, this sort of, like, demanding to hear from Grace. Like, it's actually not about Grace right now. Like, I wish everyone would lay off Grace. First of all. Like, yeah, she's clearly, like, new to this, like, public life. And I think if you follow her on social media, you see she's not, like, entirely comfortable with it yet. And Brianna sort of, like, fell into it, and, like, she's just one of those people who, like, kind of, like, made for this life. And I think that Grace is, like, a little bit more shy. And so all this attention, I think, makes her uncomfortable. But first of all, like, yes, Brianna's telling her story. Like, Grace doesn't need to come in and say, and then this happened to me. Like, it's Brianna's, like, story. Like, let her have a moment. I think, like, if Grace had come and then this happened, like, one thing at a time. But the Internet is, like, so they're even more curious to hear from Grace than they were to hear from Brie. Like, there's kind of this obsession with Grace, and I'm like, honestly, like, can we leave her out of it?
- [60:58]
Claudia
Yeah, like, give her space. I think everything in time, like, the peeling back of layers, we literally just peel back one layer. Like, everyone, calm down. These are real people's lives.
- [61:07]
Jackie
Yeah.
- [61:07]
Claudia
And then they're. To not only go through that just as a human being is so hard, but then to figure out, like, how to share, what to share, when to share. Like, it's. And these are young girls. Like, give them a minute.
- [61:17]
Jackie
They're literally 25. It's so important to keep remembering that.
- [61:20]
Claudia
And this, like, this big, powerful superstar, like, came between their best friendship. Like, it makes me so sad. I was looking at pictures of them. I don't know why I was, like, stalking them last Night. Seriously, don't be ashamed. It made me. And then I was looking at pictures from their tour, and then knowing that that's when all of it was going down. Torturing Brianna with, like, breaking up, and he was supposed to be there, like, it seriously made me so sad.
- [61:41]
Jackie
Yeah, no, it's disgraceful. And I'm gonna tell you something that's gonna make you even more sad. Ready?
- [61:45]
Claudia
No, like, I'm gonna cry.
- [61:46]
Jackie
No, you're gonna. Jackie, you're literally gonna cry. Because apparently there's like, a whole, like, storyline about Grace's dad. I was like, fell into this tick tock rabbit hole. So. So Grace's dad, at first, like, it was all good, you know, I remember seeing, like, you know, on Valentine's Day, he sent flowers to Brianna and Grace. Like, he was really courting both of them. Like, he was, you know, being smart. And apparently he was. He met or was hanging out with Grace's dad. And Grace's dad, like, loves music. It's like, his dream to be a singer. And Zach was like, let's get you in the studio. Like, I can make that happen for you. Like, let's make a song, whatever. And, like, it never happened because, like, he just started hating Grace. That's just what I heard on TikTok Talk.
- [62:21]
Claudia
Oh, I'm just glad it didn't happen and that. And not, like, he brought him in the studio and then they laughed at him. Claudia, stop.
- [62:28]
Jackie
I mean, it might have happened, but all I know is that the song never came out.
- [62:32]
Claudia
Oh, my God. I hope they. I hope they never had to cross hats with him.
- [62:37]
Jackie
I just know Zack had, like, the worst week ever. And that actually brings me joy.
- [62:41]
Claudia
On Friday after we wrapped, I was in my car with Satchie Cratchie, and I went to my release Radar on Spotify, because, you know, SA is all about the new music. And the COVID of my release Radar, which is personalized to me, is Zach Bryan first song is, like, his song. I'm like, why? I'm like, I don't listen to him. Like, why is he there? And then Margot, like, wanted to listen to it. Now I'm curious. Like, I'm in the. And I listen. I don't think I've ever. Like, I know one time I listened to his new album last fall, but I didn't really, like, process it. I listened to his song and I was like, why does he sing like this? Like, why does he sing like he has, like, marbles in his mouth? Like he's an old frogs in His.
- [63:14]
Jackie
Well, I was watching Yellowstone last night, and I watched the last episode that they had released because I needed, like, a refresher, and I don't know if I ever finished it. And I'm, like, listening. I'm like, is this Zach Bryan, by the way, his music? Now that. Then I remembered it's because I watch everything with subtitles. So it says, like, blank by Zach Brian playing.
- [63:29]
Claudia
Yeah.
- [63:29]
Jackie
His music is all over Yellowstone.
- [63:32]
Claudia
I remember that. And still it wasn't enough for me to, like, get into it.
- [63:36]
Jackie
Yeah.
- [63:37]
Claudia
So I did listen to his song High Road. Like, shut up.
- [63:41]
Jackie
Up, shut up.
- [63:44]
Claudia
He was, like, saying something like, shut up.
- [63:47]
Jackie
I love that. Like, what?
- [63:49]
Claudia
That's how I feel.
- [63:49]
Jackie
What if you just shut up?
- [63:52]
Claudia
What if you just. I think we have one.
- [63:53]
Jackie
I saw you put the iPad away. I wasn't gonna stop you, though, because I wanted to talk about Yellowstone.
- [63:56]
Claudia
You know what? Let's get into it. I don't care to talk about this. Fifth and final story. There's nothing to say. Fifth and final story, Yellowstone recap.
- [64:03]
Jackie
Yes. Okay. So after much anticipation, and I just want to say I posted on my Instagram, like, when the episode started, I was like, this better be good, because they made us wait so long. Song. And everybody was trying.
- [64:11]
Claudia
It was horrible.
- [64:12]
Jackie
I didn't think it was so bad. Like, did much happen? No, but they had a lot of work to do to, like, reset. They had to remind us, first of all what the was going on.
- [64:20]
Claudia
They had a lot of work to do. So it wasn't, like, great. It wasn't. And it was very confusing. And I feel like I miss. Like, I blinked and missed something where they were going back and forth in time.
- [64:30]
Jackie
Oh, no, no. Did I? No. Because I said one time six weeks ago, and then I assumed the rest of the episode would be, oh, you. Okay.
- [64:38]
Claudia
So they literally said, I missed the first six weeks ago. And I'm like, why is Rip, like, going back to death? And he's stopping and posing pictures with.
- [64:47]
Jackie
They went back, but then they never told us when we went forward.
- [64:50]
Claudia
Got it. Okay. I at some point surmise from their conversation, like, that, you know, Texas is a world away. I'm like, okay, he's going towards Texas. Nobody's, like, sad at the moment. I missed something, and I just want to say, like, I wasn't on my phone. Like, I do think that I blinked for too long.
- [65:04]
Jackie
Yeah. By the way, I could see how.
- [65:06]
Claudia
That I got on board.
- [65:08]
Jackie
I saw it, and I was still.
- [65:09]
Claudia
Confused because that Wenchie Liu met with the hitman. I'm like, oh, so it hasn't happened yet when she.
- [65:14]
Jackie
Liu. Yeah. Okay.
- [65:15]
Claudia
I was able to orient myself.
- [65:17]
Jackie
So I don't know if it was just me. I had a feeling that they were, spoiler alert, going to kill off John Dutton in some form because Kevin Costner, like, won't come back to work. It didn't occur to me. Like, he wouldn't even come back for one day. Like, I didn't really. Oh, so we. So we could have moved forward without him a year ago. Like, there was no resolution. I thought maybe, like, he was gonna die for sure because he wasn't gonna commit to filming all the episodes, and then they would go on without him. I didn't know he wasn't gonna show up even in one scene.
- [65:43]
Claudia
Yeah. Yeah. And it was really weird. Like, I had a really. It's hard to watch TV and, like, not realize, like, oh, this is all fake. And.
- [65:51]
Jackie
No, we know too much because, like, I wasn't even sad when he died because I'm like.
- [65:55]
Claudia
I was having a really hard time, and I was, like, really judging, like, Beth's acting, because I'm like, girl, we all know Costner wasn't coming back.
- [66:01]
Jackie
Come back, come back, come back. You. I had the same reaction. And then everyone in my DMs was like, is Beth okay? I think it was some of the worst acting I've ever seen in my goddamn life.
- [66:09]
Claudia
Like, no, it was. But she also, like, she was working against the fact that, like, we all.
- [66:15]
Jackie
Know we hate him.
- [66:16]
Claudia
This is. That. This is because he didn't want to come back to work. And now you have to pretend to be devastated. Right.
- [66:21]
Jackie
And so, as a viewer, I wasn't even sad. And I. John Dutton is one of my favorite characters. I wasn't even sad because I'm like, he's not dead. He's just lazy. Like, he doesn't want to come to work.
- [66:28]
Claudia
Yeah. Yeah.
- [66:29]
Jackie
So it was hard to suspend disbelief.
- [66:32]
Claudia
Yeah. Those opening moments were really hard to watch because of everything that we know. And I just really. I was very aware that I'm watching a fake television show.
- [66:40]
Jackie
Yeah.
- [66:40]
Claudia
That's always a hard.
- [66:41]
Jackie
I can't believe Kevin Costner couldn't even play, like, for a day, like, be on set for a couple of days to film one episode. I was shocked. I had a feeling he was gonna die. I did not think it was gonna be the first scene back.
- [66:52]
Claudia
Yeah. I found going back in time. So we need him, and he's not gonna be there. I didn't Even think about that.
- [66:59]
Jackie
Yeah, it. It's wrong.
- [67:01]
Claudia
Yeah. Yikes.
- [67:03]
Jackie
I loved. And it made me excited because I know they're doing, like, a four sixes. That. That old little opening scene with Jimmy and his girlfriend breakfast, like, so cute. And I forgot. And I don't know when that show's coming out, but I was excited for it.
- [67:15]
Claudia
And there's a lot. I know they have their Kevin Costner drama to deal with, so, like, that was really the focus of the first episode. But there's so much, like, cowboy porn. I feel like in Midway Through Yellowstone, like, they realize, like, cowboys love this show. Like, people love seeing, like, the cattle and the horses and the farms and even that. I think that guy who was making that bridal for Lloyd, he must be a real person. And that's a real store. And, like, so they're really, like. And I think a lot of these cowboys are, like, famous cowboys, too. They really, I think, take a lot of pride in making this, like, authentic. Authentic and showcasing, like, the best of cowboy culture. And so they're also, like, doing a lot of that.
- [67:52]
Jackie
Yes. Which is nice because. And they talk about it in the show. It's like, this is really, like, a dying way of life. This is no longer, like, you know, a really.
- [67:58]
Claudia
I don't want to get my beef from Brazil.
- [68:00]
Jackie
No, me neither. And when Rip was saying, like, none of this will be here in 30 years, like, we'll all be getting our beef from Brazil, like, I felt so sad.
- [68:06]
Claudia
I feel like that might not happen because I really feel like there's a trend in the culture, like, towards reverting. It's more like local shop, local farmer. You know, like raw milk from your local farmer.
- [68:18]
Jackie
That's our sponsor. Good ranchers, like, they're so, like, that's their mission, is to shop American meat. Meat so that things like that don't happen.
- [68:24]
Claudia
So that we don't get our meat from Brazil. I don't want my meat to be flying across continental.
- [68:30]
Jackie
Yeah, no, definitely not. So we need to support local farms.
- [68:35]
Claudia
Yeah.
- [68:35]
Jackie
Well, you did. You went to farm this weekend.
- [68:38]
Claudia
I. I mean, who is so. I love farming wherever I can get it.
- [68:41]
Jackie
Yeah, we farmed all summer. In terms of, like, storylines. It wasn't, like, the most plot driven episode, but it was nice to see everybody back together. It's such a beautiful show. Like, the houses and the nature and the animals. Like, it's a pleasure to watch. Except for that rat, Jamie. I hate him. Like, a face I could smash. Like, I just hate when he literally came Up. He's like, I didn't tell you to like, actually kill my dad.
- [69:10]
Claudia
No. He's so crazy. That's classic Jamie. Like, goes to the brink and there's.
- [69:15]
Jackie
Like, no, I'm afraid. Wait, never mind. You did it. I didn't mean it.
- [69:20]
Claudia
But it does look like Casey this season is going to step his pussy up.
- [69:23]
Jackie
Oh, it does look like Casey. And why is he so hesitant to move into the east camp? Like, all he's wanted is like, for his family and his wife and his family.
- [69:29]
Claudia
Because what would he complain about?
- [69:31]
Jackie
He is.
- [69:32]
Claudia
He wasn't.
- [69:32]
Jackie
He is for business. And like, it does bother me that, like, because he's the only one with a son that, like, it all is going to go to him. And Tate, even with the will, she was going through the papers and Tate is the beneficiary. It's like he's so miserable. Like a smile ever once. I just. I don't like him.
- [69:47]
Claudia
I know, but I The. The preview for the season, like, it looks like he's gonna take on.
- [69:52]
Jackie
It does.
- [69:53]
Claudia
Getting revenge on Jamie and figuring everything out. So, like, it's about time like he rested on his laurels, but. And everybody loves Casey.
- [69:59]
Jackie
How Beth can like, really read Jamie because he was like, it was Jamie was Jamie. And Casey's like, yeah, but like, Jamie would never do that. And then he wouldn't physically do it, but he would, like, find the people. And that's exactly how it happened. Like, Beth is a queen and so she.
- [70:13]
Claudia
Jamie's just such an unpredictable, non ideating person.
- [70:19]
Jackie
And I remember remembering correctly that he is not actually biologically John's correct. Okay. I just had forgotten about that. Not that it really matters, but you know, Casey's like so weak and so like never makes a decision. And Beth is so rash and so like, quick. So really together. They are a good team. And I feel like they've just sort of like been. Been like living parallel to one another. They never like, I don't even know what time when they've ever talked. Like.
- [70:43]
Claudia
Right. It's like crazy that they're brother and sister. And I feel like I always forget that in the first episode or maybe the first two episodes. Like, there was another brother.
- [70:50]
Jackie
Oh yeah, he died.
- [70:52]
Claudia
Lee, right? Is that his name?
- [70:53]
Jackie
And that was like John's favorite. He was really going to take over.
- [70:55]
Claudia
The whole thing to be like, if Lee had lived like this wouldn't be such a big question because, like, Casey doesn't want it.
- [71:01]
Jackie
Beth was out at like, you know.
- [71:03]
Claudia
Getting her masters and so like, Lee, like, I think that's why that it kind of kicked off this succession question when that happened in the first episode.
- [71:12]
Jackie
Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was so good to see my boyfriend Rip. He's looking so good and strong and handsome and lovely. And they literally, like, nothing that comes out of his mouth is wrong. Nothing.
- [71:22]
Claudia
Him telling those ugly losers they can have a picture.
- [71:26]
Jackie
Me and Ben were dying because, like, they were obviously trying to highlight, like, he definitely wants to have kids. Like, he's like a paternal type of guy. I mean, it was like a sweet scene and then these like two grown dopes.
- [71:36]
Claudia
Hey, can we get a picture?
- [71:37]
Jackie
No, I. Seriously, I was. Me and Ben were cracking up. Yeah. Hysterical. And I love the cowboys. Like the bunkhouse. Like, it's the best.
- [71:48]
Claudia
And they're obviously, they're committed to adding more of that, like, adding just like cowboy dialogue.
- [71:54]
Jackie
I was cracking up. Like, did you bag your dress? Like, so funny. And you know in real life that Teeter married, I think the guy with the guitar.
- [72:08]
Claudia
No, the guy with the guitar married the girl that he always dates. The Bell bottoms girl.
- [72:15]
Jackie
No, I'm pretty sure it was Teeter who he married.
- [72:17]
Claudia
No, I'm pretty sure he married his girlfriend in the show Bell Bottoms who.
- [72:21]
Jackie
Used to date Lloyd. Okay, now they're showing me pictures of people who've gotten married at Yellowstone.
- [72:27]
Claudia
Yeah, no, no, we're gonna figure this out. Yellows. We always report on this story.
- [72:32]
Jackie
And I can never remember, like, which. Let me see. Teeter.
- [72:37]
Claudia
Okay, so it's Ryan Bingham.
- [72:39]
Jackie
Okay?
- [72:40]
Claudia
Ryan and Hassie Harrison.
- [72:43]
Jackie
Ryan Bingham, wife. Oh, you're right, you're right, you're right. Yeah, you're right. So it's this girly.
- [72:48]
Claudia
Looks like.
- [72:48]
Jackie
What do they call her, like a. Like a bunny? Yeah, like, cuz she like bunnies around. I don't know, a barrel bunny. Yeah, the guy with the guitar. And then the really pretty girl who dated Lloyd briefly.
- [73:00]
Claudia
Yeah, she looks like Grace Van Patten in her wedding photos.
- [73:03]
Jackie
Wait, I just found out something crazy. Do you know who Grace Van Patten dated? Wait, and I literally forget who it was, but I remember being like, really crazy. No, no, wait, it's really crazy. Not me accidentally calling 911. Do you know who she dated before Jackson?
- [73:18]
Claudia
No.
- [73:19]
Jackie
Me neither. Hold on to you. Who? Oh, yeah. Nat Wolf from the Naked Brothers Band for like two years. What is with those brothers? Like they are ever. Are they Nepo babies? They give Nepo energy. They're opening for Billie Eilish right now.
- [73:34]
Claudia
Is Nat Wolf the one? Yeah, like and he's also in a lot of movies.
- [73:38]
Jackie
They get like amazing roles.
- [73:39]
Claudia
They're not like paper towns.
- [73:41]
Jackie
Yeah. And not to be mean, they're not like really good looking. So like I feel like it's really hard to make it as like a male actor who's not like a heartthrob but he gets cast in these. Like they both do. I don't even know which is which. Like they get intern in these like heartthrobby roles, but they're not.
- [73:56]
Claudia
Yeah, I don't know. They don't bother me.
- [73:59]
Jackie
No, me neither. And they, they have been making waves because they're like. I guess they are in a band.
- [74:05]
Claudia
They still do Naked Brothers.
- [74:06]
Jackie
They open up.
- [74:07]
Claudia
That to me is like my super short show, Jackie.
- [74:09]
Jackie
They open up for Billie Eilish on tour with their like original music and they make sure to every night play the Naked Brothers Band theme song. People love it.
- [74:16]
Claudia
Oh, cute.
- [74:17]
Jackie
It's cute. Yeah.
- [74:18]
Claudia
Maybe we should be them for Halloween next year since they're so popular.
- [74:21]
Jackie
Literally. Write it down. Anything else from Yellow if we showed.
- [74:26]
Claudia
Up as them, like no, nothing happened.
- [74:28]
Jackie
But I like, I didn't hate it. People were really hating on it because expectations are so high.
- [74:32]
Claudia
It wasn't like a good episode because there was a lot to do. But I just love the show and I love the characters and I love the setting. They could just be sitting there farting and I would like it because I love like the show and I trust my faves that they'll get to the point eventually.
- [74:44]
Jackie
Agreed 1000%.
- [74:46]
Claudia
So it was nice. Gang's back together. They had a lot of catching up to do, a lot of setting the scene. I didn't expect that this episode was gonna be like they had. They had to do places to people.
- [74:57]
Jackie
To put in places.
- [74:58]
Claudia
Yeah. Now I know where we stand. Let's see what happens next week.
- [75:01]
Jackie
Right. And forgot all the, you know, cattle had brucellosis.
- [75:05]
Claudia
I forgot why they brought the cattle down south.
- [75:08]
Jackie
They've got brucellosis. This Bruce Elosis Bryce.
- [75:13]
Claudia
So they're going down to 40 sixes for the season.
- [75:16]
Jackie
So that I think the grass needs to like in on Yellowstone needs to like die. Cuz it's like in the grass. And they would. They need to eat and like graze. So they went. They rented land from Trace. Travis got it.
- [75:28]
Claudia
But also probably maybe like the heat is good for them or something. Cuz why couldn't they rent land in Montana? Right?
- [75:32]
Jackie
Yeah, the heat, the heat. They need to like sweat out the Bruce or something.
- [75:36]
Claudia
Yeah, that's like back in the day when you had like, consumption and so you have to go to south of France.
- [75:40]
Jackie
It's giving consumption.
- [75:42]
Claudia
It's giving consumption.
- [75:44]
