Transcript

[Claudia]

Good morning, girlies. It's the toast.

[Jackie]

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

[Claudia]

It's your favorite show.

[Jackie]

The Fast 5 things you need to know.

[Claudia]

We'll start your day off swirly. It's the Toast.

[Jackie]

I sound amazing.

[Claudia]

Welcome back to the Toast and happy Monday. Hope everybody's had a partialicious definition fergalicious weekend. Speaking of girls who are fergalicious, it's.

[Jackie]

Jax, It's Jack's delicious. My weekend was incredibly fergalicious. Cogers, I don't know if you know that.

[Claudia]

You met Fergie.

[Jackie]

I might as well like the feeling I would have if I met Fergie is the feeling that I would have coming off of this weekend.

[Claudia]

Okay. And color me confused. How would you feel if you met Fergie?

[Jackie]

I'd be thrilled.

[Claudia]

I think I would be like, lol.

[Jackie]

You know, Fergie's like someone who. If you were at a party and everyone's like, fergie's here. You know, and, like, everyone's flipping, but, like, who really cares?

[Claudia]

That's what I'm saying. Nobody.

[Jackie]

Yeah. No. It's so true. No, but my weekend was fergalicious. Like, there is a difference. Explain it between being like, being with Fergie and Fergalicious.

[Claudia]

Just describe what it means to be fergalicious to you.

[Jackie]

Okay. Well, it means to me to be fergal. I would say, actually, fergliciousness is akin to parousness. Like, it's quite a par. Vibe.

[Claudia]

I wouldn't make the comparison, cuz to me, like, pariousness is like serenity, peace, beauty, grace. Okay, no, is like bus club. Another club bus turned up.

[Jackie]

That's what I was going to say. Turning the dial up. In which case my weekend was for delicious.

[Claudia]

I turned the dial up. You put on a gown and got your hair and makeup done.

[Jackie]

I did. I had a wedding this weekend. It was a whole wedding weekend. It wasn't. The wedding was last night. Yeah, I was out till midnight. Yeah, I was. I fulfilled. I fulfilled my lifelong destiny of being a designated driver. And I took my job so seriously.

[Claudia]

I was so excited, so happy for.

[Jackie]

Zach because the wedding was driving distance from us. And I was like, I got this, like, Tesla and I hold my beer. Zach. I'll hold your beer. You have a great time. I'm driving home. In all of my years, I've always been meant to be a designated driver. Because a lot of times I don't drink. And I can, but you don't drive. I don't drive. So this was actually the first opportunity I had to be, like, a true dd And I took my job very seriously.

[Claudia]

I don't know if I've. I mean, in my pregnancy era, have I even dd? No. There's nowhere to drive to. It's hard to be designated driver when you don't leave your house.

[Jackie]

Yeah, well, that's also the case. But, no, I got. I had my opportunity last night.

[Claudia]

Did that get wasted?

[Jackie]

He did, and I'm so glad for him. And, like, when the table was like, table shots? I was like, you're doing table shots? Like, I'm driving.

[Claudia]

Oh, my God. I feel like I spoke this into existence. Was it literally last week I said, like, I've only ever been, like, truly drunk with your husband, like, three times.

[Jackie]

Like, that level. But he had a buzz on. He was different. He wasn't, like, all the way.

[Claudia]

Oh, Dubs.

[Jackie]

Yeah. It was actually such a fun wedding and, like, not to center myself, but it was the most amazing wedding for.

[Claudia]

It wasn't because you like the way you looked.

[Jackie]

No. No, not even. It wasn't a Moroccan wedding, so it wasn't like yours.

[Claudia]

They can all be.

[Jackie]

It wasn't your favorite kind of wedding, but actually, we went to this wedding because Zach's. One of his best family friends was getting married, so we were invited as family friends. I'm just Zach's plus one. Right. I'm just the wife of the family.

[Claudia]

I mean, you're so much more than that. I know, but, you know, you're a businesswoman, a mother.

[Jackie]

But in this wedding, I'm just there because Zach's family's invited and I'm his plus one.

[Claudia]

Yes.

[Jackie]

However, his family friend happened to be marrying a guy who went to Colgate, who I know, whose sister went to Colgate, so it was such a Colgate wedding. I knew more people there than Zach. I was. I didn't know which side to sit on, the bride or the.

[Claudia]

You showed him up. You showed him up.

[Jackie]

It was. It was very exciting for me. And they got married in Florida, so it was like, a whole wedding weekend in Florida at the hotel. We were bringing the kids. If you want me to come to your wedding, marry someone from Colgate and get married at this hotel, because it was a dream wedding for me.

[Claudia]

You looked parchy. Like, really parchy. Blue is blue. Looks good on full le.

[Jackie]

Thank you so much. I knew I had to look nice because I was gonna know so many people, and I saw so lots of pressure. Their faces, plus, like, his Whole fraternity was there, and, like, so. So many people that I recognize, but a lot of them, like married girls from Colgate. So I saw some old friends. It was really, really nice. And Colgate, you know, if, you know, you know, we're very small and tribe, like, and we are Colgate proud.

[Claudia]

Well, you're just reminding me. I finished Sex Lives of College Girls, which is literally a show about so Colgate. And I want to say something, and it goes against everything I believe in, because I don't think Mindy Kaling has ever, like, done anything wrong. But, like, this was actually some of the worst TV I've ever watched. And there was a time where I thought it was the greatest show ever created. And, oh, my God, it was so bad. Like, did anybody else think that, you.

[Jackie]

Know, nothing lasts forever? Codiers.

[Claudia]

I know. And with the Renee wrap of it all, I thought it wouldn't, like, affect the show. And I don't know if that's why it was bad because she left or because, like, the writers, like, they took a left turn and to replace her, they replaced her with, like, three people. And it's actually too much now. They should have just gotten a replacement and stuck with it.

[Jackie]

Like, as I say, it's better when you make a choice.

[Claudia]

And so they replace the roommate with Charlotte Lawrence. I like her. She sings. But then they have, like, new supplemental characters, like Lila, who I love Lila, the girl who works at the coffee shop. You like her, too. And then this new girl, Taylor. Like, I. There's too many people now.

[Jackie]

Oh, I'm sorry. It wasn't what you had hoped it would be.

[Claudia]

But you know what was what I hoped it had be? I watched so much TV this week. This weekend, Ben was gone on a golf trip, and this was, like, the one thing, like, the second we found out we were pregnant, he was like, I won't go. Like, let's just take it, like, month by month. We'll see how we go. And I know he really wanted to go. So I was, like, trying to be supportive. Big mistake. I will never be supportive again. I was so bored. Like, dead. Like, they need to invent a new word for bored, because that's how un eventful my weekend was. But I watched everything under the sun, and I watched the entire season of the Kardashians on Hulu.

[Jackie]

I've been watching it. I've been telling you, you inspired me.

[Claudia]

And then I saw, like, Liz woods posting about it on Instagram, and I was like, you know what? Like, it, you know, comfort show.

[Jackie]

It's like. It's very calming. Like, crazy things don't happen. Like, it's very even keel, and it's an. It's an enjoyable experience to watch it.

[Claudia]

I don't even think I would say it's a comfort show. I feel like what I thought it was, like, based on my years of watching, especially the later seasons of Keeping up and then the new seasons of the Hulu, it was very produced, like, silly beeline story plots and then, like, lots of footage of the girl sitting around on their phones. Yeah, yeah. And I just. I could do that in my own house. You know, I don't need to watch that. So that's why I had given up on it. And then. I don't know why. Maybe, like, it was making a lot of news. Something compelled me to watch it. And let me tell you, it's an entire different show. I feel like they really received the feedback of them all filming together and just being on their phones. Like, that was what we used to watch. Just, like, someone was talking. No one was listening. Everybody's scrolling on their phones. Like, it was so boring.

[Jackie]

Yeah. I feel like they're making more of an effort to have it be meaningful, and in some ways, it's going well and they're having conversations that are actually nice in other ways. I feel like, like, the Lamar thing, I know that's like, an A storyline, and probably they're gonna dine out on that for the rest of the season. Did. Didn't really, like, do as much for me as it should have, but then there are just other anecdotes that they share. Like I said, like, Scott and his assistant thing.

[Claudia]

So funny.

[Jackie]

Just, like, really enjoyable and also part of their real lives. Not the media stuff, but just and pleasant to watch.

[Claudia]

I liked the Lamar stuff, and I actually got really choked up when Chloe shared that. Like, people thought it was so crazy when we got engaged after 30 days, but Lamar really told me, like, after he met my family, like, that was such an impetus for him wanting to marry me because he loved my family so much. He never had that growing up. I. I loved the whole thing. Like, I'm one of those people. It's like Chloe and Lamar forever. And they did drag it out, like, over two episodes, but I understand why they did what they did.

[Jackie]

You watched Santa Barbara and they, like, brought it.

[Claudia]

Yes, of course. And what happened at the San Ysidro Ranch with Chloe and Lamar? Apparently they, like, turned it up.

[Jackie]

On the one hand, it sounded like they were. It was, like, crazy and, like, maybe they were fighting, and it was, like, dramatic.

[Claudia]

Yeah.

[Jackie]

On the other hand, they were, like, in the hot tub and they needed to drain it.

[Claudia]

Yeah. No, I think it was bad. That was, like, my takeaway.

[Jackie]

I don't know.

[Claudia]

The Andrew Huberman, Brian Johnson biohacking episode.

[Jackie]

Did you catch my vibe?

[Claudia]

You know, I had seen you say that, like, these two are in love. And so it was, like, kind of in my head, and to be honest, smiling at her. Jackie. He literally was in the show for three seconds. Like, you made a little bit more of it. I was like, ready? I'm like, let's go.

[Jackie]

I can read the vibe.

[Claudia]

But, like, Kim lying in front of strangers, like, being like, yeah, I don't drink. So funny. Like, they were. They were really being themselves. I feel like this season is most reminiscent of the early seasons. Why? Everybody liked them. They weren't doing anything crazy in the early seasons. They were just being sisters. Like, and it's so funny and so relatable, even though they're billionaires. And I feel like that element was really back, and I was just really enjoying myself. There were funny storylines. There were silly ones, too. There were serious ones. So sad about Kris Jenner's sister.

[Jackie]

Yeah. Did you watch the bear thing yet? That's the next episode. I saw the preview for it where there's, like, a bear in Calabasas.

[Claudia]

Okay. So that's the next episode. It hasn't come out yet. And that's giving, like, stupid e. E. Network.

[Jackie]

It is. Storyline Bear in Calabasas. So, like, Chloe's gonna, like, dress up in a bear costume and, like, be in Chris's bushes and freak her out. And I was like, oh, this is so stupid. But in the preview, you see the bear in the bushes, and it looks like a real bear, and. And Chris. Stupid Chris goes get the gun.

[Claudia]

It's stupid. I'm sorry. Like, I'll. I'll reserve judgment, but it looks like it's, you know, B plot, fine.

[Jackie]

But it could be, like, B plot with heart and soul, like, Art Vandelay.

[Claudia]

And I also really like them leaning into, like, Courtney is not really, like, doing things with the family. That's fine. But I like that she's filming her own stuff. Like, I know it was so stupid, but them get going to dinner in that car and the whole family and then having family dinner. Like, okay, not the most interesting thing in the world, but, like, that's her life. And I like that they're not forcing it to be anything. Like, she's not. They're not Forcing her to film anything other than what she's actually doing. And this is what she's doing. And it's interesting. She's in, like, a very. She said she's gonna breastfeed for two years. Like, yeah, she's in a very nesting phase. And it's nice. I was laughing at the 5K. Like, it was fun.

[Jackie]

Yeah. No, she's my favorite. It's so funny. There's so many pieces of each of them that I relate to, like, so deeply, and maybe that's why they're so long standing and how much people love them because they're even in there. No, but, like, it's like, I really. There are so many things that, like, Courtney says or does. Chloe, too, and Kim, where I see so much of myself, and it just, like, I'm sure everybody feels that way, which is why they are where they are, because people have been feeling that way ever since watching them. But I really. So much of what Courtney does right now, like, I really just enjoy. I get emotional. Also from the show, like, what was I.

[Claudia]

Me too.

[Jackie]

Maybe it was Chloe's birthday party. The way that they did the lead up to it, they were acting like it was going to be, like, this really, like, sad for Lauren thing, a flop of a party. And I was just like, yikes, yikes. They get there and it's, like, really turned up, but, like, is the vibe going to be there? And then it was just, like, off the charts. Chloe having the best time. I was seriously had goosebumps. I don't even know why.

[Claudia]

Sick party. Like, seriously, so. Well, it just.

[Jackie]

It looked so fun. It was. It was fun. You could just like, feel the feeling come above coming off of it. I also feel like for Chloe, she, like, hated her 30s. She's, like, ready for her 40s, and even day one of her 40s is better than her 30s. But I just feel like the last few years of her 30s, she's been waiting to turn 40 so that she can enjoy her life. Like, she turned 40 and she's going to India and she's going to Italy. Yeah, you could have done that at 39, by the way.

[Claudia]

Well, can I tell you how much I loved seeing them at the Ambani wedding? Like, that was so interesting to me. And I really appreciated that they admitted, like, no, we've never met these people. They just invited us, like, because we're famous and rich and, like, they wanted celebrities there and how they got connected through Lorraine Schwartz. I found that to be so interesting. And then actually seeing Inside. The wedding was so sick.

[Jackie]

Yeah, that was.

[Claudia]

And so interesting. And one thing that I think that they do a really good job of now is like they get cameras everywhere. Like they're allowed to film if they're going somewhere. Like they're getting clearance to bring a whole ass camera crew. Like sometimes you would see them getting ready for stuff and like they don't.

[Jackie]

Show you inside literally is the videographer of the Ambani wedding. Like they, when they were like clips, it was like high res footage of the ceremony.

[Claudia]

Yeah, it was really, it was nice. Like you get access and that's what you tune into the show for. So I feel like they're actually getting to a really good place. I am so enjoying it. I'm gonna keep up with it. I'm gonna keep up with the Kardashians, as you should. And I watched the White Lotus.

[Jackie]

Oh, I didn't watch. So can you just. I'll try and watch tonight. If you could save your thoughts or put them in the TV recap. And I'll take my helmet off.

[Claudia]

It'll be brief.

[Jackie]

One more thing from last night that was cracking me up. I haven't been to a wedding in forever. I actually was trying to think the last time, I think it was Dana's. And I was seven months pregnant with. And at first when we were like going to the wedding, I was like, I'm just a plus one. Like I'm gonna, you know, like, you know, enjoy the food here for the cuisine. But then, like, something about wedding music. I like the beat. Like, yeah, the moment you walk into the reception room, I'm just like ready to dance. I danced the whole night. But something that was so funny. It was like they played a lot of like, tick tock songs. And it was a live band and they were amazing. But there were a couple songs where I was like, I feel old. Like, I don't know the new music. You know what they played. Which is actually a really good wedding dancing song that I just don't listen to or don't really. Boo thing. You're my little boo.

[Claudia]

You're my little boo thing. And I don't give a hoot what you do say, girl. I know you don't know that song.

[Jackie]

Like I, I, I know it, but everyone knew all the words. I don't know all the words.

[Claudia]

I don't think I know all the words either. It's just like a tick tock song.

[Jackie]

And then they played a new song. That was the best moment. Play it at every wedding. It's the new number one song.

[Claudia]

What's the song?

[Jackie]

Apata. Apata with the live band, Claudia. The roof was about to bust off the place.

[Claudia]

And by the way, is Apata Mook.

[Jackie]

No.

[Claudia]

Okay.

[Jackie]

Oh, yes. Sorry. Yes. I'm sorry. Yes, yes. Apata. No. Is it not Rose?

[Claudia]

Oh, you know what? It is Rose.

[Jackie]

Yeah.

[Claudia]

But they're from the same band.

[Jackie]

They're both from Blackpink. Like, got it. Okay. Oh, my God. So good. But it was interesting to hear, like, all the new songs, wedding style.

[Claudia]

And of course, you're literally a grandma.

[Jackie]

The classics, the greats of shout. But it's not like that. The bride and groom were even, like, so much younger than me, you know, I was actually, like, right in between the two of them.

[Claudia]

Right, right. So it's kind of perfect timing.

[Jackie]

So it was really, really fun. Like, I can't even. When I try to just be, like, low key at a wedding, like, oh.

[Claudia]

You know, I'm gonna just. It's true. The power of the power of the couple. And the power of the wedding, like, almost always influences you. You're like, oh, I'm gonna head out early.

[Jackie]

And it was a really long weekend. We were swimming and in the ocean all day, especially Sunday. Like, we went straight from the pool. I got home, got ready. So by the time we got to the wedding, like, my day is done, right? Oh, hell no. Not when that band starts up.

[Claudia]

That's how you know it's a good wedding, when the power of the couple compels you and the music.

[Jackie]

Like, I sat down for, like, one glass of water, and then Apatota came out. And it's like, everyone's favorite song. But what was funny, I was talking to some fellow moms, and they're like, this is a real song. My daughter loves this song. I'm like, yeah, it's Bruno Mars. They thought it was like, baby shark.

[Claudia]

Blippi.

[Jackie]

Yeah.

[Claudia]

Was that what it's called? Blippi.

[Jackie]

Blippi is a man. Yeah.

[Claudia]

Yeah. The Excavator. So.

[Jackie]

Yeah.

[Claudia]

And the worst song I've ever heard in my life.

[Jackie]

He's like the male Miss Rage.

[Claudia]

It's actually interesting to me, like, how low the bar is in children's entertainment. Like, I know that if I ever, like, quit this line of work, you. I know, because, like, the things that go viral. That excavator song is so bad. Like, not good lyrics, not good beat, not good melody. Like, these kids are like, the beat. They're just, like, accepting scraps.

[Jackie]

Yeah. They just want a song about an excavator. And. And that's the first one that comes up.

[Claudia]

I'm in excav. Later. Like, so bad.

[Jackie]

See you later.

[Claudia]

Like, that's the best we could do. Hey, Dirt. See you later.

[Jackie]

I think Toast Tunes needs to take it upon ourselves.

[Claudia]

Listen, we can't go down this rabbit hole, but. Yeah, we do.

[Jackie]

But also, the wedding was so swirly. I met so many swirlies and toasters. The mother of the groom is a toaster. She said she listens every day. She's gotten.

[Claudia]

She sounds like a wonderful woman and.

[Jackie]

She'S gotten all of her friends to listen. So she is.

[Claudia]

Oh, doing the Gen X humor work for U.S. outreach. The next time you go to a wedding, ask the mother of the groom if she listens to the toast. That's how we can all make sure.

[Jackie]

That we stay with the boomers and maybe give. Like, we should have, like, little business cards. I have, like, a. Not a QR code because I don't know if they know how to use those.

[Claudia]

But, like, we'll make it really user friendly.

[Jackie]

We'll make it really user friendly, and that's how we're gonna reach them.

[Claudia]

I have to update you on something. Just, like, an ongoing story and nobody's paying attention anymore because the season of love is blind was so bad, Right? So bad. But there actually has been, like, a lot of drama unfolding on social media between Sarah and Ben.

[Jackie]

Okay.

[Claudia]

And I think that you would want to know now, I don't know all the details, but basically, like, you know, she slayed. Yada, yada. Everyone hates him. Like, there was a picture going around. Yeah. That was, like, the takeaway. Like, she stood up for herself and he's a weenie and he can't remember anything ever. And then there was this picture going around, I guess, like, back in the day when he was, like, trying to become a YouTuber, he used to pass out these business cards that had, like, his face on it. Like, Ben's YouTube. And, like, it was cringe, but, like, literally it was cringe, but, like, okay, pop off Networker. And so all these things kept coming out, like, just, like, making fun of him, and she was, like, winning. And then he made a TikTok. Like, he finally decided to. He just, like, let all this happen to him. Even at the reunion, he, like, didn't defend himself. So you just assume that he's guilty? Well, he just, like, made a tick tock.

[Jackie]

Not after that guy. Christmas photo.

[Claudia]

Daniel.

[Jackie]

Yeah. Nobody acted guiltier.

[Claudia]

Oh, yeah, yeah. But he totally Followed her. I'm sorry, like a thousand percent.

[Jackie]

But I'm just saying, like, nobody acted guiltier than that person. And he was innocent.

[Claudia]

So he just basically like posted all the screenshots of all the text messages between them after the show. And it really made her look so bad. First of all, it's like your values, your values, your values, your values, right? You still got engaged to the guy who didn't have your values. You then broke up with him, like in front of everybody. Like my values. Yeah. And then you still got back together with him after the show. It's like your values obviously aren't that important to you. It's fine. Like, but stop acting like they are because you are acting like, not in accordance with your values. All these text messages, like, really proving kind of like everything she said to me have been a lie about their time afterwards. Like now she's making a million tiktoks defending herself in the comments. Everybody's so over her. It's like, girl, leave this man alone. Like, he didn't even fight back when you really like during the reunion and afterwards, like tried to like annihilate him and it worked. He didn't even fight back. And then you just didn't stop. So he made one video with the screenshots and it really exonerated him. And you like, people are, she's getting eaten alive now. Like, it's, you either live the hero. What is it?

[Jackie]

You either die the hero or live long enough to become the villain.

[Claudia]

The Sarah and Ben story.

[Jackie]

Well, I heard she's dating long hair Joey.

[Claudia]

Oh, yeah. So there's just like a lot of rumors now about like the cast. And again it comes back to like, loser's gonna lose. Like I, I can't care that much. But the flip in public, like the people who are still paying attention, the flip in the public perception between these two. I know I'm a self hating. Love is blinder.

[Jackie]

So Love is Blind, Season eight.

[Claudia]

Er, yeah, yeah, totally.

[Jackie]

Are you in any chat rooms?

[Claudia]

I'm not, not, you know, like I, I, I, I'm in a couple of group chats, like with people where we.

[Jackie]

Talk about it well until the next season.

[Claudia]

And do we have the 49ers story today?

[Jackie]

No, we don't, but I'll put it in there because I, I literally was in a hole. This like, I was so unplugged from whatever's going on in the world. And then this morning I was like, oh, I didn't really miss that much.

[Claudia]

Whatever. The opposite of Unplugged is I was plugged. I would love to know my screen time. Jackie. I did not get out of bed or off my phone the entire time. Even when I was watching tv, I was scrolling on my phone, let's say, see all activity.

[Jackie]

I actually did so much swimming this weekend, I felt like coach. Also, you know that I'm a water sign. Have we talked about this? Because I always say like Claudia is a water sign and she loves swimming because she's a water sign.

[Claudia]

Yeah, you are too.

[Jackie]

I'm a water sign.

[Claudia]

I think that like one third of all people are water signs.

[Jackie]

Yeah, but maybe my water sign ness manifests itself in a different way other than like swimming. You know, maybe it has to do with like drinking water. Like, maybe there are other ways to be water sign.

[Claudia]

Maybe it's people who drink a lot of water.

[Jackie]

So everybody in the pool, in the ocean, at the hotel was born the same months?

[Claudia]

Yeah, pretty much. And to be clear, I had 11 and a half hours on my phone yesterday. And that's impressive given that I also took a two hour nap.

[Jackie]

How do you see that? That's really crazy. Like how do you see just yesterday?

[Claudia]

Okay, so settings, Grandma. I just, by the way, I don't even go to settings. I don't go to setting. Just scroll down, drop down and and press and type in screen time.

[Jackie]

Oh, well, I do the search.

[Claudia]

Do the search and then you're gonna see all app and website activity.

[Jackie]

Okay, I'm like having a hard time.

[Claudia]

Oh wow. She's really like embracing her grandma today.

[Jackie]

I know how to do the search when like it's muscle memory. I don't know how to do the search.

[Claudia]

Okay, just like pull down.

[Jackie]

What am I searching?

[Claudia]

Screen screen time. The first one that comes.

[Jackie]

One word or two? I see two.

[Claudia]

Oh my God. See all app and website activity.

[Jackie]

I'm scared to ask where that. Oh, I see. Make scared to ask a question.

[Claudia]

Okay, and then it's on today.

[Jackie]

It's on day.

[Claudia]

Yeah. No, is it on today?

[Jackie]

Like, yeah, it's on today.

[Claudia]

So now swipe to the right. It'll take you to yesterday. Kind of like your aura ring.

[Jackie]

Sorry, I'm like having a hard time.

[Claudia]

Gen. Genuinely painful.

[Jackie]

Like, wait, I'm sweat. Oh, six hours and 51 minutes. Oh, that's Monday, March 10th. What day is that?

[Claudia]

So keep going.

[Jackie]

Oh, that's a weekday. Of course I'm busy, lady.

[Claudia]

This is like hearing about someone's dreams.

[Jackie]

3 hours and 30 minutes yesterday.

[Claudia]

Wow, that's really good.

[Jackie]

That's Pretty good. Yeah. And I got ready for like two hours. I was in glam.

[Claudia]

Yeah, yeah, that was. Yeah, that's really good. Yeah. Now we do have a lot to do.

[Jackie]

Not as much as you think, but.

[Claudia]

Oh, okay. We could dilly dally more. What else?

[Jackie]

Let's do the ads to break it up and then just know you are welcome to dilly dally throughout the show.

[Claudia]

And you're welcome to meet me at the top. I wish you didn't start singing that song. It's like a song now that's torturing me, you know?

[Jackie]

No, it's so good. It's like just when you thought Bruno Mars is out of the game, that they'll never be like an Uptown funk wedding song moment. Apita aputa.

[Claudia]

Well, aputa and other Fast5 stories and.

[Jackie]

All other Fast5 stories are brought to.

[Jackie]

Thank you. Turtle Love.

[Claudia]

What can I say?

[Jackie]

Turtle Love. Our first story.

[Claudia]

Turtle dove. Nah. Turtle Love.

[Jackie]

I just think someone should just clip that, like, out of context, you know, like, what is this show about?

[Claudia]

What is this show about? I was. I actually feel like I'm thinking about that business.

[Jackie]

You win.

[Claudia]

I've been thinking about that a lot recently. Like, what is this show about?

[Jackie]

It's so funny.

[Claudia]

And at the end of the day.

[Jackie]

It'S so funny because I was at a wedding this weekend and, like, you talk a lot about.

[Claudia]

Somebody ask you that?

[Jackie]

No, you talk a lot about like what you do though, and like how it's going. And I just want to say again, people are like, oh, like nobody wants this. This, like, yes.

[Claudia]

Oh, the TV show. Yeah.

[Jackie]

Oh, yeah, that's because that could be rude.

[Claudia]

Yeah. I'm like, no, actually I think a lot of people want it at the end of the day. Guys, sound off in the comments if you could. One word. What is the toast about? Like, I would say the toast is about me. If I'm being like, that's how I feel for my pov.

[Jackie]

Oh, okay, so that's awkward because I was gonna say, like, it's about sisterhood.

[Claudia]

Oh, screw sisterhood. It's okay. Yeah, I guess. Yeah, that's better. That's better. But you know how self centered I am.

[Jackie]

It's love. If I. Okay, here are a couple single words that I would use if I had to and then like, we can all vote. Okay, okay, okay. Sisterhood.

[Claudia]

Screw sisterhood.

[Jackie]

Love, family.

[Claudia]

Okay. Yes, but we don't sit here every day and talk about love. Do you know what I mean?

[Jackie]

No, but we sit here every day and love is in the air.

[Claudia]

Yes, yes. So I would say the essence of.

[Jackie]

The toast I love there is also calm. Like, I think actually comedy is a great way to describe it. And we're in the right category for ourselves. Yeah, not if we want to hit number one every day. We should. And when I tell people to government.

[Claudia]

Yeah, well, when I tell people, like in a basic elemental level, I'm like, oh, it's about like pop culture and celebrity and it's not like we've. We've. That ship has sailed.

[Jackie]

I do a podcast with my sister. It's a daily show. It's really funny. I always say, my sister Claudia is so funny. So it's a comedy show and we do entertainment news. I say we talk about everything. Pop culture, tv, everything under the sun, but mostly ourselves. That's really my elevator pitch.

[Claudia]

Got it. So it's not really one word.

[Jackie]

No, but I didn't say one word. Sorry. This is my elevator pitch.

[Claudia]

When you boil it down, like, we cannot be summed up to just one word.

[Jackie]

We can't be put in a box.

[Claudia]

They're always trying to put us in a box. Wait, speaking of, you know, we have like a semi viral TikTok sound. And by semi viral, I'm like, it has a thousand views. I mean a thousand videos. It's the classic Jackson Claude sound. How does it go?

[Jackie]

I can't like about how amazing the.

[Claudia]

Fact that we have so many Haters. It's such a funny sound. And over the weekend, Alex, Earl and Bethany posted it on Bethany's channel. I forgot to tell you this. Bethany deleted it.

[Jackie]

Excuse.

[Claudia]

Yeah.

[Jackie]

What?

[Claudia]

Yeah, I was getting tagged in it like a million times and I was so excited. I'm like, oh, my, the swirlies are swirling. And then somebody tagged me in it and I opened it and it's a video's gone.

[Jackie]

Wait, why do think that is?

[Claudia]

I don't know.

[Jackie]

I actually don't think it has to do with us, like, people voiceover crazy all the time. You know what I mean? Like, I don't think it's because, like, we're so crazy.

[Claudia]

I would like an explanation.

[Jackie]

Me too. Like what I saw on reels.

[Claudia]

It wasn't the best lip syncing moment.

[Jackie]

It wasn't the best.

[Claudia]

Yeah. And we're, we're difficult to lip sync over. Yeah. Because we have a very specific tenor and rhythm to our voices and we obviously speak very quickly.

[Jackie]

Just when you think we're gonna go right, we go left.

[Claudia]

I'm sorry I sent you that. Being like, oh, my God, look at us, Alex, Earl. And then I didn't follow up. I don't want to ruin your weekend.

[Jackie]

Like, if you never told me she deleted it, I would never know.

[Claudia]

I know.

[Jackie]

And you know what, the fact that they did, it was exciting to me.

[Claudia]

It was. You had to be there kind of moment. It was a fleeting, beautiful moment.

[Jackie]

Yeah. But it wasn't properly synced and maybe that's why.

[Claudia]

Yeah. It was poorly done.

[Jackie]

Yeah. You gotta think you do sink it up. Our first story. Something that I know you want to talk about. So it's moved to the number one story when it was not even in the Fast 5, and that's that Kyle US Check agrees to a two year deal with the 49ers. So after a very dramatic few days of Kyle, you check. Leaving the 49ers after eight years of playing there and being team captain and really, you know, like playing all different positions and really being a core member of the team, he has been signed back to the 49ers for a two year contract of what was it, $8 million?

[Claudia]

Yeah. And I think his previous contract was two years, $9 million. So it's relatively. I don't know why they released him. I think they ended up spending more money. Um, but I don't think they were right. And like, I don't know if they were expecting that Kyle would be really desired by another team. The Steelers really wanted him. And I Think they offered him more money and he decided to take less money to stay because he loves his team and, like, wants to finish what he started. I don't think they were expecting that. And I also. I know it doesn't, like, matter to organizations because, like, it's all about the bottom line. It's all about winning. And if you cut someone or release them for whatever reason, there's a reason for it. But I do think, like, the outcry from the fans, like, the faithful, that's what they call them. Like, I. I have to imagine it had an impact, like, all the players, like, it's not good for morale. What's $8 million for morale?

[Jackie]

Yeah, I agree. It's actually a really cute thing that they did. And I don't think it has to do with the fact that another team wanted him, but that's because that's why they, like, gave him away. They're like, we don't want him, so they shouldn't be mad that someone else does. But obviously it's, like, pretty. Like, it's pretty swirly to, like, bring him back. And, like, they usually don't operate on emotions.

[Claudia]

No. That's why this is so rare.

[Jackie]

And I think, like, in general, they shouldn't, but there is exceptions to every rule, and I think that this was a really good exception and the right thing to do, and it's a happy ending.

[Claudia]

What do you think this means for Sydney Warner? Like, she thought she won. We talked about this on Friday. If you guys aren't familiar, whoever made.

[Jackie]

This decision to hate Sydney Warner because they just want to make her look like a clown, I wouldn't even be surprised if they did this whole experiment as a awkward for her and she failed.

[Claudia]

Failed. So if you guys weren't paying attention on Friday, we talked really briefly. There is, like, a lot of, like, wife drama over in San Francisco when Kyle was released, this girl, Sydney, who was oddly on the Bachelor, but it's now, like, a famous Wagner. Her husband's name is Fred Warner. He's really good. She was, like, posting celebratory shit, being like, it's such a good day. Meanwhile, everybody else is posting, like, montages of them crying. And so people were quick to, you know, make the connection. And it wasn't the first time that she had posted something shady in regards to Kristen Use check. But now, like, not only are they back, but, like, they're hometown heroes. They gave up the money. More money to go to Pittsburgh. Like, they are beloved, like, by the community. What? And, like, she Kind of showed her cards.

[Jackie]

Yeah, she showed her.

[Claudia]

Before it was official.

[Jackie]

She showed her card. She should have. Wait for me to dry.

[Claudia]

Yeah. What a pit do you think she has? I don't know. I feel like. I feel like she's kind of ballsy. Yeah. I know nothing about her.

[Jackie]

Like, first of all, she doesn't get along with everyone she posts. It's not even like she's a victim because she's, like, posting nasty stuff, so she's gotta have be brazen.

[Claudia]

Yeah. Maybe she don't give a.

[Jackie]

And maybe she'll just go back to doing what she was doing, which was not being around the girls. Like, okay. And. Yeah, what's the difference if they hate you a little more and you're still not around them?

[Claudia]

Right. Right. Nothing. Ben.

[Jackie]

Trim.

[Claudia]

Nothing lost. So I'm. I'm happy that I didn't throw away all my 49ers gear because, like, I was done, you know? Like, what am I rooting for this random team for?

[Jackie]

Yeah.

[Claudia]

Once my personal connection.

[Jackie]

Well, Olivia colpo.

[Claudia]

Yeah.

[Jackie]

Wait, you're pregnant?

[Claudia]

The comments on Friday's episode were cracking me up. Everybody was being like, not Jackie and Claudia bothering the. Out of Kyle. You check with their stupid questions while he's clearly going through some, like, contract negotiations.

[Jackie]

Like, probably very stressful, I want to say. I think we were a welcome reprieve from the stressful conversations. Probably all of his texts were like, man, what are you gonna do? And then you get this fun text, like, two morons. Imagine you're a deer literally prancing along.

[Claudia]

You get a little thirsty, you spot a little brook. You put your little dear lips down to the cool, clear water. Bam. A fucking bullet rips off part of your head. Your brains are laying on the ground in little bloody pieces. No, I. Axia, would you give a fuck what kind of pants the son of a shot she was wearing? That was such a good reference. Kudos to you. Like, really a plus podcasting right there.

[Jackie]

Thank you. So I feel like that's what it was like for him to get that text. And I just want to say, like, to Kyle, you're welcome. For sprinkling a bit of swirliness in an otherwise stressful week.

[Claudia]

I also want to say to Kyle, you're welcome. I think the pressure from being Winnie of the week to the 49ers, like.

[Jackie]

Definitely adding, oh, that moves the needle.

[Claudia]

Yeah. The 49ers, like, follow me on Instagram. They're, like, always commenting on my. Especially because, like, when me and Ben announced our pregnancy, our LOL. I'm wearing a 49er sweatshirt. Like, it was just because it was the only thing that fit me at the moment. Like, it wasn't, you know, And I think they, like, really see themselves, like, in my journey. So it's good for everybody to sit in. The synergy remains the faithful family. And I'm glad we can all stay together.

[Jackie]

Yeah. Also speaking of cute football news, you see Josh Allen talking about his contract. He has like a huge new contract. I forgot the exact number, but he was asked in an interview, like, like, apparently he could have gotten more. And they were like, why didn't you try and break, like, Dak Prescott's record for, like, biggest contract?

[Claudia]

Right. If he like, went to other teams.

[Jackie]

You'Re saying we're like, push back. Like, I think he could have negotiated harder. And he was like, at the end of the day, like, what's an extra $5 million? Like, I'm happy to be here. I love the bills, like, men she behavior.

[Claudia]

Okay, well, that is men she.

[Jackie]

Like, I think like, when you have 60 mil.

[Claudia]

No, I know. Is that it's so much more.

[Jackie]

And I, I don't know what I think of something like that. But that means like, the extra five that can go to the team to like.

[Claudia]

Oh, well, that's true, actually. That's a nice way of thinking about it. But like, for me, if that's my man, like, girl, we have bills to pay. Get back in there.

[Jackie]

Everyone can have that mentality all the time. Otherwise, it's a bunch of commies on the field. But in this situation, literally a bunch.

[Claudia]

Of commies on the field, I'm cracking up.

[Jackie]

But I thought he was like, so it was so nice and like, no, he doesn't need to get the biggest, best contract just to say that he has it. Because it really doesn't make a difference if he got 60. Got 65.

[Claudia]

He got a six year deal in 2025. So it's 2025 to 2030.

[Jackie]

Okay.

[Claudia]

Six years, 330 million. Cool. So, yeah, I guess at that point.

[Jackie]

Clay, maybe that's like 60 a year. I just want to say it Is.

[Claudia]

So it's 55 a year plus a signing bonus of 56. What's GTD at sign? Is that what you're owed?

[Jackie]

Guaranteed to.

[Claudia]

Oh, guaranteed at signing.

[Jackie]

Oh, oh, yeah. Guaranteed.

[Claudia]

147. 147. So he gets like half of it up front. Oh. And then guaranteed, like total. Like, let's say they trade him, but he's still guaranteed 250. Damn. Let me tell you, that Haley Steinfeld, she's a smart cookie.

[Jackie]

You guys slept on her. That's really crazy. Mazel tov to the Allen Seinfeld family.

[Claudia]

Damn.

[Jackie]

Yeah.

[Claudia]

Would you do with $330 million? To be honest, it's not enough. Oh.

[Jackie]

I was gonna say, like, there are a couple things that I really want that, like, that would get me, and it would be enough for me. Dainu.

[Claudia]

Yeah. Yeah. I mean, you do have to factor in taxes. So let's say, you know, you're. You're going home with 175ish.

[Jackie]

Okay. Well, that changes things.

[Claudia]

Right? And then, of course, I have to take care of people in my life.

[Jackie]

Yeah.

[Claudia]

And then I need to put some away for future generations. And also my money, so. So I can stop working my money.

[Jackie]

When you're doing this. But yeah, of course, I need, like, a. I need, like, 20 mil cash to, like, get into right now. And as long as we get there.

[Claudia]

To take a bite out of.

[Jackie]

Yeah. A couple homes.

[Claudia]

Yep. Maybe a plane.

[Jackie]

Maybe a plane. Or maybe just I can charter whenever I want.

[Claudia]

Yeah. I often, like, daydream about, you know, what I would do, like, if I was the type of person who could afford a plane. And I actually think having a plane is more trouble than it's worth.

[Jackie]

I think it just depends how much you travel. Like, Kim, like, some people are always traveling. They should have their own plane waiting for. I don't need my own plane. I'm not going anywhere that often.

[Claudia]

I was curious, do you think they took Kim Air to India?

[Jackie]

I do. But then I wonder why they didn't film. Because they love filming on Kim Air.

[Claudia]

So I actually think that they didn't because it's such a long flight. And private airplanes, like, actually a lot of celebrities, like, when they fly internationally, they have to fly commercial because you stop for refuel. Her plane is huge. But, like, it's not Drake's plane. It's like a 747. It's like.

[Jackie]

No, but I think they could fly to India with one stop for refuel. I feel like they would have taken her plane, but when Courtney went to Australia last season, they had to fly commercial because that's too far.

[Claudia]

Right.

[Jackie]

But I do think that.

[Claudia]

I don't.

[Jackie]

I don't think they flew commercial. Even if they didn't take Kim's play, maybe they. They chartered, like, a bigger private plane.

[Claudia]

Yeah.

[Jackie]

She did not get on a commercial flight.

[Claudia]

No, it wasn't. No Air India for Chloe.

[Jackie]

No. Unless, like, they gave Them. The whole plane.

[Claudia]

Correct.

[Jackie]

Which they might have. And maybe the Ambani's.

[Claudia]

Oh, well, that was the other thing.

[Jackie]

They made for like all the celebrities.

[Claudia]

Yes, all the. I don't think that Kim and Chloe spent any money being there. I think they were like flown out, put up the dresses, the diamonds from Lorraine. And I actually think when. When Kim was like, oh, no, I'm gonna have to pay for the missing diamond that fell on the floor.

[Jackie]

I'm.

[Claudia]

I'm almost positive the Ambani's paid for it.

[Jackie]

Like, oh, yeah, I don't think anyone paid for it. And like, what's one little diamond in a wedding that literally has diamonds hanging from the ceiling? She could have just grabbed one.

[Claudia]

No, for sure. But like that little diamond was like a hundred grand.

[Jackie]

I know, but like when there are a million hundred grand diamonds, like, what's 100 grand? Also they have the whole thing on camera. They could see where watched it fall. You saw that?

[Claudia]

Yep.

[Jackie]

Couldn't they just like go on their things and press rewind?

[Claudia]

They probably didn't see till like the editing room that they had the footage of it falling.

[Jackie]

Understood. Yeah.

[Claudia]

That's how I interpret it.

[Jackie]

I don't know when there's so many diamonds in the room. Like one rogue diamond with all this. I know, like, it just didn't seem like a big deal to me.

[Claudia]

No, yeah, I know, but I know he was like, I found it.

[Jackie]

They wanted to make it a big deal because, like, yeah, that's interesting plot. It was also a very good commercial for India. The only thing about the episode that bothered me was when Kim and Chloe went to the market and they're walking down the streets and they're like their dresses in their heels and they can't move and they like can't walk the.

[Claudia]

Streets and it's raining.

[Jackie]

All these people around them, they're. They're so stupid. Like.

[Claudia]

Yeah.

[Jackie]

And meanwhile in la, she'll wear sweats and sneakers to a grand opening. Like, put on your sneakers, put on your sweats and go to the market.

[Claudia]

Agreed. It was very stressful.

[Jackie]

It was very stressful. Yeah.

[Claudia]

Well, I'm happy to say bang bang.

[Jackie]

You know, bang bang. Niners gang.

[Claudia]

Bang bang into the room.

[Jackie]

You know, you wanna bang bang all over you.

[Claudia]

I'll let you have it. Wait a minute, Let me take you there.

[Jackie]

Wait a minute. Our next story. New couple alert. Maybe Tom Cruise and Anna de Armas touched down in London together after a helicopter ride.

[Claudia]

Oh, I didn't feel like this was giving. New couple. I Don't know why I know that they were together, but, like, he's so ugly and old and she's so fabulous and young and she is seeing someone. A very highly controversial figure. Her community actually really turned on her when they found out she's dating, like, a former dictator of Cuba's son. Like, somebody really offensive to her community's son. And that was a couple of months ago. I assume they were still together.

[Jackie]

Well, TMZ is calling this, like, romance. Rumors swirling, not confirmed. But, like, seriously, what are these two? They could get on different planes. They were flying high. For their second public outing this year, Tom and Anna were photographed together after they arrived via helicopter at the London heliport on Friday. I'm sorry, you don't get on a helicopter with your just random co worker.

[Claudia]

I just. I actually refuse to believe Ananda de Armas. Run fast for your mother. Run fast for your father.

[Jackie]

She's 36. He's 62. Because I know you're wondering.

[Claudia]

She seems like I actually wasn't.

[Jackie]

She seems like an older man. Like, remember Ben Affleck? She wants like, this established Hollywood guy. That's what she wants.

[Claudia]

Yeah, I know, but like, sorry, Tom Cruise is gross.

[Jackie]

I know you think so.

[Claudia]

No, no, it's not like a feeling.

[Jackie]

I have, but no, Claudia, like, some of our Gen X women listeners are like, that's their guy. Like, that's their Jacob Elorian.

[Claudia]

Excuse me, I'm not saying to. And this. Thank you for pointing that out to the Gen X. I'm not saying he's gross because he's old. Like, give. There's a lot of baddies who are that age of that generation.

[Jackie]

I didn't think you were saying that he's. I think you're saying, like, he's ugly and stupid.

[Claudia]

His face, his brain. He's short. Like, seriously, what's to like? But if Tom Cruise.

[Jackie]

That's their face.

[Claudia]

Wasn't. Wasn't a talented actor and he was just a regular Joe Schmo, he would be like, divorced alcoholic couch potato. Please. He's. There's nothing desirable about him.

[Jackie]

Okay, well.

[Claudia]

And I can say that for the.

[Jackie]

Gen X swirlies we understand, like, you know.

[Claudia]

No, no. I'm telling you, Jackie, you're thinking so low of the Gen X worldies. The Gen X swirlies do not. With Tom Cruise. He's so toxic.

[Jackie]

People. Someone somewhere is talking with Tom Cruise because he's the biggest movie.

[Claudia]

No, I'm telling you, that's like the mystery. No one with him. So how is he the biggest movie star in the world.

[Jackie]

He's an industry plant.

[Claudia]

A thousand percent.

[Jackie]

Well, they were spotted at the London heliport and then the airport like, like back two days in a row. I'm sorry, like he doesn't travel with like randos.

[Claudia]

No, but like do you don't think they were cast in a movie together?

[Jackie]

Even if they were cast in a movie together, like they can travel separately. He's definitely like does his own thing until he shows up at set. You know, I think that there's. This is smokey and there's a fire and inferno.

[Claudia]

Yes, logically I agree. Like I see the photos, but there is something inside me just stopping me. I am resisting arrest because these two can't possibly. They just can't.

[Jackie]

Yeah, well, different strokes for different folks, you know. No, and I do feel like because Arma stated Ben Affleck, that makes this more legitimate.

[Claudia]

Yeah. And if you are. If we're gonna like go back and look at history for references like, like her having poor taste in men and liking older men, like there is proof of that. Ben Affleck, the dictator's son. Like she's not known for her choices when it comes to romantic partners. So actually the evidence, the evidentiary support leads me to believe that actually maybe if I'm looking at this, you know, married. Right. As a completely unbiased third party perspective with no particular interest in the matter. Yeah, no, this definitely seems like something she would do. Yeah. Things she did him at him. A young ingenue who he can torture. That's his favorite.

[Jackie]

Yeah.

[Claudia]

You, even though she's you, you will love it. Even though she's a little too powerful for him. Like he got his claws into Katie Holmes so early on. She was like a rising star. She was super young. He was really able to control her and bring her into his crazy ass cult. Like adage. Armis is one of the biggest movie stars in the world. Like she's kind of. And she's much older. Well, not much older. She's 36.

[Jackie]

So that her age works in her favor in terms of like be having a strong mind. However, in terms of like movie star prowess, like she is slipping.

[Claudia]

She is slipping for sure. But she's still up there. Like it's not too late for her to turn it around.

[Jackie]

No, it's not too late. But she's not where she was.

[Claudia]

No, I always think about that. You know who I think that about all the time. Do you remember Alicia Vikander?

[Jackie]

Yeah. Slipped.

[Claudia]

There was like a two year Period. Where like, Alicia Vikander was like the face of Louis Vuitton, the face of Swarovski in every movie. Venison festival campus. She was clearly on her way to becoming like the next ex Cate Blanchette or whatever. And then she, like, got married and disappeared.

[Jackie]

Well, she married Michael Fassbender and I think she was like, I'm good, thanks.

[Claudia]

So you think it was a choice.

[Jackie]

Choice than it was a kick out. Yeah.

[Claudia]

Okay. I do.

[Jackie]

Like, it doesn't. I don't feel sad.

[Claudia]

Okay.

[Jackie]

And into armas. Jury's out. But she is slipping. And I could see why someone would think, like, Tom Cruise is the next right move to do the next thing.

[Claudia]

I. I don't actually. That's a pretty good analysis. Yeah. Yeah.

[Jackie]

Our next story is actually some more new couple news. Because Camila Cabello is dating a billionaire and she was spotted passionately kissing him in Rome.

[Claudia]

Roman, we don't talk enough about how Camila Cabello actually has fabulous taste in men. Obviously, Shawn Mendes. Like, who wouldn't? You know this billionaire, the beautiful dating.

[Jackie]

Coach who has a podcast, and then.

[Claudia]

That dating app founder who's Jewish and hot. What's his name?

[Jackie]

Yeah, is it.

[Claudia]

Which he started Locks. Did he start Locks Club?

[Jackie]

I think so.

[Claudia]

Whatever. Like hot Jewish tech entrepreneur.

[Jackie]

Like, she kind of always. And she always has a boyfriend. Like, you know those girls.

[Claudia]

Yeah, she's like a relationship girl.

[Jackie]

She is. And now she's with a billionaire named Henry Jr. Childhub. They couldn't keep their hands off each other during romantic getaways to Rome. They were photographed passionately kissing and holding hands. On Friday, they stopped to grab coffee. I think they were first spotted together in January. So this is what she's been up to.

[Claudia]

I love when pop stars have, like, flings. It's kind of a rite of passage with, like, unknown non famous billionaires. Like, remember when Rihanna was low key dating that Saudi prince? Like, that was a really crazy time for her. Yeah, I love this. You know, Janet Jackson very famously also dated a Saudi billionaire. I'm not sure if he was a prince. I love that. You know, it's a kind of a different route of. And you know, they can pay to get you all the places.

[Jackie]

Like, after dating, like a startup founder, you're like, okay, the hustle needs to sleep.

[Claudia]

Right?

[Jackie]

Then I think you go to a billionaire who's like, generationally wealthy, and you're like, okay, I work hard. Like, you sleeping till noon's not gonna work.

[Claudia]

Yeah, not the same.

[Jackie]

And you definitely want to strike somewhere in the middle. But I do think you can toggle between extremes, and when you have something you want the exact opposite.

[Claudia]

I feel like that's what Sophie Turner's doing right now with, like, her unknown, aristocratic Pellegrino Perrier. Correct.

[Jackie]

Yeah. That's my favorite.

[Claudia]

Yeah. I like when people do something different but still chic.

[Jackie]

You gotta switch it up. Especially when you are in the long term thing and you, like, know all the things you hate about that person. You're like, I want something diametrically opposed. And then you end up with a bottle of sparkling water.

[Claudia]

When you were in a relationship that was, like, for Camila Cabello, like, so Hollywood and, like, Stan culture and, like, kind of toxic at times. And like, you were performing together, like, that's fun, but it can be really dark. And so there's none of that here with a billionaire. Like, we're just happy on our plane and our yacht.

[Jackie]

And I do feel like for Camilla, she just put out an album. Right. And the fact that I have to.

[Claudia]

Ask, like, yeah, it was definitely, like, floppy O.

[Jackie]

And so maybe she just wants to hang up her heels and be a.

[Claudia]

Kevin, take a little bit of a break. Yeah.

[Jackie]

You know, and she wants a man who can support her whether she works.

[Claudia]

Nothing wrong with that.

[Jackie]

To work or not to work?

[Claudia]

There's nothing wrong with that. I am glad to see her platinum blonde hair be gone. She was sort of, like, made to be a brunette, you know?

[Jackie]

Yeah, I do. I do.

[Claudia]

And I think that that that platinum hair had a lot to do with why the music flopped, if I'm being honest. Kind of how, like, a pixie cut can ruin an actress's career. A platinum blonde moment can ruin the career of us.

[Jackie]

I don't know. A pixie cut is like, what makes you, like, you're not a certified actress until you cut all your hair off.

[Claudia]

I don't know. I'm worried about Emma Stone. That's all. I'll say.

[Jackie]

It's worrisome.

[Claudia]

It's extremely worrisome.

[Jackie]

Yeah. Well, are you ready for our next story?

[Claudia]

No.

[Jackie]

[Jackie]

Our next story. Justin Bieber was spotted at Disneyland with with Haley and the kid Lori. So Justin Bieber and Haley have been.

[Claudia]

Oh, I thought, like, that the Leroy and him had beef.

[Jackie]

Well, apparently not. But then I'm wondering why Tate wasn't there. Because, like, oh, she's busy. Why is Leroy third wheeling? Yeah, but Justin and Haley headed off to the happiest place on earth with a great support group. Haley and his buddy, the kid Laroi. Lucky we're living it up at the California theme park over the weekend. And he posted a bunch of pictures on Instagram. They went on roller coasters, Mickey ears, etc.

[Claudia]

I mean, this is also like, on the heels of, like, you know, him posting weird things on social media. People are always, he did, you know, have an off week last week. I don't even like to. I don't, like, look into it or.

[Jackie]

I don't look into it because nothing.

[Claudia]

Ever happens like Justin Bieber. But you know what? He's fine. He's a father. He's happy they're at Disneyland. Like, it's always fine.

[Jackie]

Yeah, I feel like the last few weeks it's gotten, like, weird. And then there was more. Yeah, it was at a higher volume than usual, but and then Haley was.

[Claudia]

Posting, like, things on her stories about church. And a lot of people thought it was like her leaving church. Whereas I definitely, like, understood it as, like, if I went to church, I would find this relatable and funny. Like, she was just commenting on, like, church culture. Not like, I'm leaving the church.

[Jackie]

I know, but for someone who doesn't, like, post that much, especially her innermost thoughts, it did feel like that's kind of a big statement, you know?

[Claudia]

Yeah, yeah.

[Jackie]

But seeing them at Disney together, there's nothing going on. That's the thing. Like, things over, at least for this. This flare up or whatever this was.

[Claudia]

Right, right.

[Jackie]

They're obviously exactly what it is. It's a flare up. They're always together. Every time people think that they're not together, they are always together. They're having fun. They look well. Honestly, to me, this kind of shines a light on what's going on between Leroy and Tate.

[Claudia]

Wow. You think there's trouble in Leroy? A Dice Leroy and McCray Leroy Day. Well, she's, like, busy. She just launched an album. Like, I don't think she could just be taking days off.

[Jackie]

I know, but you need, like, you definitely have to take those days off or otherwise you burn out. And I know she's, like, young, and maybe she'll learn that the hard way. But, like, it's important when your friends are going to Disney that you find the time. One day you can. Everyone can take a day. And it's important that you do that. For longevity.

[Claudia]

Yeah, for longevity. Very huberman of you.

[Jackie]

The Huberman protocol. Go to Disney with your friends. Okay.

[Claudia]

By the way, it'll be okay. Ben, you know, Ben is like, fake into wellness, right?

[Jackie]

Because, like, he, you know, when he was here, because he was saying, like, in his. His Eastern medicine, I was like, you're a little Eastern. You're a little Western. He's central.

[Claudia]

Central. I remember I watched the episode. But yeah, like, he. He gets like, fake into herbs and he takes creatine. But, like, literally, like, he'll do crack. Like, he's like, he doesn't really, like, go there. He doesn't commit. No.

[Jackie]

And like, he literally lives on Advil and Tums.

[Claudia]

Yes. Actually, he's been trying to pull back, but yes. So he's like, very Advil. Yeah. He's a big. Know. The man loves a cigarette.

[Jackie]

Aspirations.

[Claudia]

The man loves a cigarette. Okay, like, please.

[Jackie]

He has an alcohol company, but he's.

[Claudia]

Always, like, joking about Slit, the software Longevity Institute of Technology, where, like, he comes up with these, like, actual fake ass protocols. Regimens and protocols, like, and beliefs. And it's so funny. He's always talking about the software Longevity Institute. Longevity is just a word that makes.

[Jackie]

Me laugh and reminds me, what's the T for?

[Claudia]

Well, the T is because the acronym slee, like, isn't as.

[Jackie]

No, it's slick.

[Claudia]

So this and the Software Longevity Institute of Technology.

[Jackie]

I really love that. What are his protocols? His ayahuasca pills, the Gaia herbs, the pulses on your hand when you have a migraine.

[Claudia]

Oh, that's. No, not pulses. What are those things called? Pressure points. Ben loves a pressure point. Like, I had a headache the other day, and Ben's really gotten into pressure points since I can't take Advil or anything. And I'm such an Advil fiend. Like, I'm so looking forward to a few months from now taking Advil again. So he's really gotten even more into finding pressure points for all my various illnesses. Like when I was having my IBS constipation in my first trimester, like, he was seriously pressing on, like, parts of my foot. It didn't work. But the other day I had the worst headache. And there's just nothing you can do. Right. He put this pressure point. I think it was in my knee. Oh, my God. Let me tell you, my headache went away. Like, it was really crazy. No, I'm. You know, it pains me to, like, ever admit that he's right.

[Jackie]

Don't believe you. Like, that's something I will have to experience for myself. Because either he would love to do it for you, either it didn't work or you didn't have a headache is like, what I think.

[Claudia]

So my belief with. The reason that it worked is that it's a little placebo. It's like my head was really hurting me, but then. Then there's this big man, huge hand breaking my knee that, like, by the time he releases it, I'm more focused on the pleasure of my knee being intact than the little pain in my head.

[Jackie]

Yeah. So it's more about perspective than it is feeling. Yes.

[Claudia]

That's very Eastern, too.

[Jackie]

I mean, perspective is everything, don't we? Yeah.

[Claudia]

So that's like a big core tenant. Pressure points, Gaia herbs, turmeric. What are these pills? Athletic greens.

[Jackie]

When he gets athletic greens.

[Claudia]

Gaia Herbs.

[Jackie]

That's Gaia Herbs.

[Claudia]

Echinacea.

[Jackie]

Echinacea. That's.

[Claudia]

But it's like this one brand they sell at Whole Foods, it's called Gaia Herbs. But the one that he quick defense. Yes. Ben, if you're ever sick, he'll be like, all right, come here, and I'll give you the biggest pile of pills. I'm like, like, you want me to swallow? Like, I could. I would die if I swallowed all these pills. It's turmeric. It's echinacea. Yeah. He loves turmeric.

[Jackie]

That's so funny. Well, he should add to slit. Like a day at Disney with your friends. I think it could be healing for a marriage.

[Claudia]

Yep.

[Jackie]

Like, you feel like kids again. On the Radiator Springs Racers ride.

[Claudia]

You'll feel like kids Leroy. Again.

[Jackie]

You'll feel like kids Leroy.

[Claudia]

So his presence is definitely, like, quite. Quite confusing.

[Jackie]

Especially because you said there's former beef.

[Claudia]

I thought that the two of them. Because I. I don't know. I don't know. I don't. I don't have proof. I just remember, like, things being bad. They did the song together.

[Jackie]

Yeah.

[Claudia]

And I think, like, Justin brought him in. He was like a scooter brawn, like, a whole thing. And then he left. I don't know. I just thought there was beef. Maybe there's not.

[Jackie]

Maybe there's not. And also, time heals all.

[Claudia]

So true. Especially after the fires. It's like everybody's reevaluating.

[Jackie]

It's true. So I'm glad they found their way back to each other.

[Claudia]

That's the real beauty here of the story.

[Jackie]

Yeah. I feel like, actually, maybe Haley was the third wheel, but celebs love Disney.

[Claudia]

We need to talk about, like, the infantilization of, like, adults at Disney World.

[Jackie]

Well, we always talk about Disney adults. We do, but, like.

[Claudia]

But when celebrities do it, it's somehow, like, not weird.

[Jackie]

They love Disney. They're like, they do Disney Anaheim in Disney is.

[Claudia]

And it's like, they're not going with their kids. It's like people without. You know.

[Jackie]

Yeah.

[Claudia]

It's so weird.

[Jackie]

Yeah. Well, having gone to Disney recently as an adult, I do understand.

[Claudia]

Yeah. But you with your children, I do.

[Jackie]

Understand why people with children would really love going.

[Claudia]

Yeah, of course. That's the whole point. Why the. Why the park was erected.

[Jackie]

Yeah. No, but now it's like, Sheena, like, goes all the time, and now she's like.

[Claudia]

By the way, so funny that you said Sheena, because when you were like, celebs love Sheena. I was thinking Sheena.

[Jackie]

Kylie loves it, too, everyone. Yeah. And now, like, the girl, like, she always brings the girl gang of, like, Storm, Aloo and Company.

[Claudia]

Correct.

[Jackie]

Not Stoss and Company. That's A different girl gang.

[Claudia]

Yeah, I did think you were talking about Stas.

[Jackie]

No, that's why I had to clarify. Storm and Lou.

[Claudia]

Yeah.

[Jackie]

Are you ready for our fifth and final story? Like, boring trade news that I guess we have to share. Conan O'Brien will return as the Oscars host in 20. 20, 26.

[Claudia]

Not them, like, thinking they're doing the same thing as the Golden Globes. Like, you loved it.

[Jackie]

He's back more.

[Claudia]

Yeah, we're all just, like, still recovering from that awful ceremony that Conan truly added nothing to. He didn't take it away. He wasn't like a bomb. He wasn't Jokoi. He was just, like, not funny, not offensive, not anything. So I guess they're happy with the mediocrity. I'm so confused.

[Jackie]

Like, like, again, maybe they're just, like, happy that nobody was yelling at them. I actually saw Oscar's viewer numbers were down, which I feel like they're always down.

[Claudia]

They trend downwards. They do.

[Jackie]

They do. So I guess it's not. And we're not gonna put that on Conan. No, no.

[Claudia]

That would be unfair.

[Jackie]

But if Kylie Jenner were hosting, maybe more people would tune in.

[Claudia]

You know what? Give it to Chloe. She hosted X Factor. She could do it.

[Jackie]

She, like, she's amazing at those things. So she's like, has the personality and the personality, but she can't handle it. And she has.

[Claudia]

She's a lot of anxiety.

[Jackie]

Have, like, the thirst for it, which I appreciate. Like, she is happy just where she's doing her thing. Totally need, not more.

[Claudia]

Yeah.

[Jackie]

Like, Kim would want to host it.

[Claudia]

And that wouldn't be very good. So back to Conan.

[Jackie]

Like, okay, Okay.

[Claudia]

I. I think they. How they thought we were going to receive this. How we are.

[Jackie]

Like, okay, yeah, it would have been fun to do something new. New is always exciting. I feel like there's so many.

[Claudia]

Unless, like, there's somebody who crushes it so good and, like, you can't wait to get more of them. Nikki Glaser or sometimes it's like two people will present together and they had such chemistry that it inspires them to be chosen next. You're like, that's fun. But so to bring or like, somebody like Ricky Gervais. Right. Like, there's always excitement, tension. Conan doesn't have that. Like, what Conan has is that he's like, a likable, affable guy.

[Jackie]

No, and here's the thing. Here's. Herein lies the issue. The people who are gonna watch the Oscars, no matter who the host is, are the same people who are excited that Conan is hosting. Right. He is not bringing in any new viewers.

[Claudia]

New viewers. Okay, so they need. They're pandering to their base.

[Jackie]

Yeah. But if you want to bring in new people, actually a really great option would be, like, Shane Gillis. He's hosted SNL twice in the last year. He has a huge following. He's so funny. He feels like Ricky Gervaisi, where he'll come in and, like, read the room to filth and do it really funnily.

[Claudia]

Yeah. But the thing about Ricky Gervais is that he's, like, one of those rogue comics who has, like, the approval of Hollywood. Like, he's done movies, he's done film. He's, like, kind of really regarded and respected. Whereas, like, Shane Gillis, I think, like, the Oscars would see as, like, a fringe radical.

[Jackie]

So the Oscar. Yeah, the people in the room. But as you know, for the viewers, we would love it. And I feel like he's. He's really talented. He's really funny, but I feel like he's also professional because he's taking on these, like, bigger, more traditional things, and I feel like he could walk that line. I do.

[Claudia]

Yeah. I mean, I would.

[Jackie]

Free idea.

[Claudia]

Although, I don't know, like, is his specialty in terms of, like, he comments on, like, culture, but I feel like he doesn't do, like, a lot of, like, Hollywood or popular culture. Like, Ricky Gervais is sort of known for his takes, like, like, on Hollywood, which is why it's so appropriate. Whereas if you, like, Shane Gillis, like, doesn't know who any of these people are and doesn't give a. Yeah. Do you know what I mean?

[Jackie]

Yeah. I feel like he'd sooner get, like, the Golden Globes. The Oscars are so, so serious.

[Claudia]

Yeah. Which is why when Ricky Gervais did it, it was so crazy.

[Jackie]

And they don't want to rock the boat. They're really not interested.

[Claudia]

So that's Conan. Like, we're. They're.

[Jackie]

Honestly, I just did the Golden Globes, though, so it's not.

[Claudia]

Oh, he didn't do the Oscars. Oh, I'm sorry. I thought he did the Oscars.

[Jackie]

No, it's not. Apples to apples. Yeah. So.

[Claudia]

And it's just so funny when you think back on, like, the big scandal of Kevin Hart at the Oscars, because, like, now, like, Kevin Hart doing the Oscars, it's, like, literally, charity. He's the biggest movie star in the world. But at the time, it was, like, such an honor. Like, I get it. You know, you want that sort of notch in your belt, but, like, that would seriously be a waste of Kevin Hart's time.

[Jackie]

Yeah, I don't think there's anyone that they would choose who's going to be exciting to us, period.

[Claudia]

It's true.

[Jackie]

It's just not for us, I guess.

[Claudia]

Okay.

[Jackie]

It's for the Conan stands.

[Claudia]

Now, if you want to take your helmet off for two seconds, I have a couple things I want to say about White Lotus. I'll do a brief TV recap. We'll do an official one tomorrow or whenever you watch it.

[Jackie]

Okay.

[Claudia]

But take your.

[Jackie]

Take your helmet for now.

[Claudia]

Okay. You guys know I've been, like, kind of a huge hater of White Lotus because it's literally boring. This was actually a good episode. I feel like it was, like, really White Lotusy. Loved to see Leslie Bib's husband, Sam Rockwell, very famous actor. A lot of people don't know that. Leslie Bibb, who's a part of, like, the Three Girls group gang with the short blonde hair, the Republican from Texas. Her husband in real life is Sam Rockwell, and he was in last night's episode playing the guy talking to Rick in Bangkok about how he, like, pretends he's a little Asian girl. I don't know. Like, that whole conversation where I was not paying attention, that's her husband. So I just loved that. Also, I just loved, like, the partying scenes. Like, that's really fun. I get a lot of anxiety watching people take drugs. So, like, seeing the two brothers take drugs, like, gave me a pit. I just hate watching. I like. I don't like doing drugs. I don't like seeing people do drugs. It just, like, gives me a lot of anxiety. But that scene, like, with them on the boat and then also the other party with Valentin and his friends and the three girls, like, that was really fun. I was very White Lotus. He just, like, very. I like that a lot. The one thing I had an issue with is, like, I did not need to see the two brothers kiss. Call me crazy. I just don't like incest. I thought it was, like, gross and weird. And I know they're not brothers in real life, so it's not a big deal, but they're brothers in my mind. And at first, it was, like a tiny peck. I was like, okay, fine. But then they, like, made them kiss a couple of times, and it was, like, French. It was just weird. And then the Ratcliffe Ratliff family. I just love these two. The dad. Oh, my God. Jason Isaacs, he Gives me such a pit. When he was, like, about to, like, blow his brains out, I was seriously like, don't do it, don't do it. I was. He's such a good actor. Oh, my God. Parker Posey. She had so many good one liners. When she thought she was in Taiwan, she was like, we are in Taiwan. What? When she said to her daughter that her daughter can be Buddhist because she's not Chinese. Like, she's seriously so funny. The writing for her character is so good. She obviously, like, really made it what it is. But the writing is very good. It's very funny. And, like, I get the character that she's supposed to be portraying, this, like, old southern lady. So last night's episode actually really made me like a lot of the characters. Belinda having a lizard in her room and thinking the whole time that there was, like, a murderer in her room is so turdy coated. I really related to her in that moment. And her and Pornchai, like, sleeping together. Obsessed guy talk. The brain dead security guard who's in love with Mook, like, being so stupid. He knows that Jason Isaacs took the gun. He's, like, standing around watching Mook dance. Like, go get your gun, Annie. Get your gun. He was being so, like, helpless and stupid. He was pissing me off. Those are just my initial thoughts. When Jackie watches the episode, we'll do like, a bigger breakdown. But you can put your helmet back on. You can put your helmet back on. You can put your helmet back on.

[Jackie]

Helmets on. Do I need my mouth guard?

[Claudia]

Huh?

[Jackie]

It's like sports mouth guard.

[Claudia]

Oh, oh, no. Just make sure to put your shin guards on. Whatever.

[Jackie]

My jocks drop.

[Claudia]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Jackie]

And you get.

[Claudia]

Did you hear me say that?

[Jackie]

I did. You're booming.

[Claudia]

Kind of a good reference.

[Jackie]

Business was booming.

[Claudia]

You'll get it once you see the episode.

[Jackie]

Yeah, can't wait. Actually, I can very much wait.

[Claudia]

No, it was a good episode. It. No, nothing happened again, but it was like, finally, like what White Lotus is known for, right? Like there's nothing happening. But, like, these people are interesting and funny and they're doing weird things and the plot isn't moving, but it's funny. And they're all saying funny things.

[Jackie]

Okay, that's fine by me. I'm looking forward. Like, I'm very exhausted for my big weekend. So much socializing because I knew so many people and so many, so many new faces.

[Claudia]

Social butterflies and like, so many, like.

[Jackie]

People, like a mutual.

[Claudia]

Not the way faces.

[Jackie]

Because, like, there was a girl there.

[Claudia]

Who'S you sound like somebody hosting, like, a freshman orientation. Lots of new faces.

[Jackie]

No, but let me explain why I'm saying new face. Because there was a girl there who was like, Dana's. One of Dana's other best friends who I've never met, but Dana talks about her a lot. So of course we had to connect.

[Claudia]

Were you feeling territorial?

[Jackie]

Not at all. Dana should be worried because we're best friends now.

[Claudia]

That's, like, the worst feeling for Dana.

[Jackie]

We sent her, like, your two random.

[Claudia]

Friends, like, meeting up and hitting it off.

[Jackie]

We had so much in common. She's okay.

[Claudia]

Yeah, like, let me just go kill myself. Like your camp friend and your college friend. Oh, God, that's terrible.

[Jackie]

As I said, new faces.

[Claudia]

Correct.

[Jackie]

And new places.

[Claudia]

I am now. I would say my number one pregnancy symptom is sweating. I cannot stop sweating. Is that normal?

[Jackie]

Help. They were real that day I wore a vest.

[Claudia]

They were real that day I wore a vest. Because that vest was disgusting. This vest is from Amazon. Like, it's not. It's really decorative. It's purely decorative.

[Jackie]

I understand.

[Claudia]

But, like, I wake up from a nap. I wake up from my sleep. I get up at, like, I am sweating everywhere I go. It's really annoying me. So if you see me in the street, like, and I smell, just know I'm doing everything to combat it. I'm showering multiple times a day. I'm wearing so much deodorant, so much dry shampoo.

[Jackie]

If you see Claudia in the street and she smells, you're too close to her. How about that?

[Claudia]

Oh, no, no, no. I thought you were gonna say this. If you see Claudia in the street and she smells. Naden.

[Jackie]

Well, that, too, but no. Why don't you take a step back? She won't smell anymore.

[Claudia]

So true.

[Jackie]

That's a you problem.

[Claudia]

No, like, literally, I'm sweating.

[Jackie]

I don't think anyone in the. Like, anyone sane would ever judge a pregnant woman for smelling. Like, I wouldn't even clock it. I wouldn't be like, oh, she was smelling. Like. I literally. I'm like, that's none of my business.

[Claudia]

It's so true. She has a lot going on.

[Jackie]

Like, I feel like my. We won't even register it. Yeah, consider my nostrils stuffed.

[Claudia]
