A
Good morning, girlies. It's the Toast. It's Jackson Claude, and we're your host. It's your favorite show, the Fast 5 things you need to know. We'll start your day off swirly. It's the Toast. I sound amazing. Welcome back to the Toast. Happy hump day. And I am sitting down with, of course, someone I would love to hump, but you and I've got a couple of humps ourselves. It's Shannon Ford.
- [00:38]
B
So true. There's been so many humps this week, and we're taking them like champs, but they're humps nonetheless.
- [00:44]
A
Bellies. I meant our bellies and our breasts. Like, I just meant we have humps.
- [00:48]
B
Oh, my God, you're so right. And from someone speaking that never had lady lumps or humps, it's kind of crazy.
- [00:56]
A
Do you like it or you finally understand why we've been complaining this whole time? Like, big boobs stink. Big bellies. But it's not my favorite.
- [01:06]
B
Well, my butt is somehow inverting itself, so I haven't experienced that. But do you know that when I got my boobs really early on in pregnancy, which Taylor was like, that's crazy. Like, mine didn't come till I got milk. I was like, slay these titties. I think it lasted a week. Like, maybe truly a week before I was like, I want to slice these off my body. And everything the big titty community has said is correct. And I feel so bad because I've always been like, oh, poor you. You have big, gorgeous tits. And now I'm like, oh, no, your life is hindered.
- [01:39]
A
Your life is hindered. I'm so glad that you've seen both sides. You've seen, like, both sides of the coin. And you can agree with us that, like, it is not what it's cracked up to be. No, it is not. My favorite one.
- [01:51]
B
And with the big belly and toe as well. They just rest on my stomach like an orangutan. And I just feel. I just hate it. I hate it. I hope they go back to the itty bitties that they were. I know it'll be a while to.
- [02:06]
A
Seeing how big they get when you breastfeed, like, or when your milk comes in. I don't know if you're gonna breastfeed.
- [02:10]
B
I'm not gonna, like, yeah, I'm hoping to exclusively breastfeed. That would be amazing. And so I. I fear. I have nothing but fear.
- [02:18]
A
Well, I'm excited because then you'll really like. We really need to give you a Big dose of big titty. Yes. That you will never again tell us we're wrong for complaining.
- [02:26]
B
You're right. You're right. I always do this.
- [02:29]
A
Like, you haven't had. You haven't experienced enough yet. Make them bigger.
- [02:32]
B
Make them bigger. Oh, my gosh. Shudder to think when. When people say stuff like, oh, my gosh, if I could give you half of mine, I'd be like, okay, bring it on. Or they say stuff like swimsuits. I started saying stuff about I was buying swimsuits, and I don't need to go up in too many sizes. So I've just been trying to kind of, like, wear what I have, and I used to roll my eyes, and people would be like, what is this thing? This wouldn't even fit over my nipple. I'd be like, okay, Now I say things like that. Like, Taylor would be like, you can borrow this. And I'm like, this little thing. This wouldn't fit over a nipple. Like, it's crazy.
- [03:06]
A
It's a natural cycle.
- [03:08]
B
Yeah.
- [03:08]
A
Well, I'm glad we've convinced you. You look par delicious today. You always do. Thank you. You literally look like Andy Anderson from How to Lose a guy in 10 days. Pregnant edition.
- [03:18]
B
Yellow is new for me. I'm really trying to channel my inner Jackie and wear more colors as a redhead. Like, you know, pale pinks and yellows. Like, this color did not exist in my closet, and I'm trying to branch out because it actually does suit us so nicely, which I should have known by looking at you, but it does.
- [03:33]
A
Well, people would think that, like, pinks and redheads don't go. And maybe if I got my colors done, someone would be like, no, this color is not suiting you, but, like, it's just become a part of me that, like, I. I wouldn't even be able to recognize if it does. There are certain shades of pink. Even the one I wore yesterday, it's not like my go to shade of pink, but it's just a cute top. But I love pale pink. What were your used to be go to colors you love? Like a. A forest green.
- [03:55]
B
Yeah. I am a big green. Blue, purple, white, and black.
- [03:58]
A
Dual tones. Yeah, that's it.
- [04:00]
B
I'm pastel tones, but that's actually not my color wheel. My color wheel is, like, pastel tones, and so I'm trying to migrate, and when I look at myself. You look great. You look great.
- [04:10]
A
You look great. You do look great. How are you feeling? We know you've been sick. You've been through it.
- [04:15]
B
Yeah. I really, as James would say, I don't know if this is like a British saying, but they always say, oh, God, you're going through the wolves. You've been through the wolves, the wars.
- [04:25]
A
I. I figured.
- [04:26]
B
Yeah. Then I realized you were going through the walls. Well, I was just like. It kind of sounded like walls, actually. Yeah. There's just been so many ailments. But, you know, that would happen anytime. I'm supposed to be podcasting in person with you, which I would have loved to been in Florida right now with you.
- [04:39]
A
Oh, yeah. We had such plans this week. People don't even know. Shannon was supposed to come down to Florida. She was going to stay in my house. We were also going to do, like a little hotel staycation. We were going to podcast for a number of days together. Just like living the life of par G. Yeah.
- [04:52]
B
RG Podcasting in person was the plan.
- [04:56]
A
While pregnant.
- [04:57]
B
While pregnant.
- [04:59]
A
And Shannon fell ill and so she couldn't fly. So that's why also, this week has been. It's actually been a really great week and everything's totally worked out. And you know what? Like. And I'm never going to push a pregnant mama. Like, I'm never going to be like, Shannon, you said you'd be like, ever you. Shannon, you stay home.
- [05:13]
B
You've been magnificent. It's mostly a sinus thing. Just which if you guys are like, gosh, your co host sounds like Donald Duck. Like, it's just sinuses during pregnancy. I didn't realize how elevated they can really get. And it just got to a point where I was like, if I fly, my eardrum will burst. Like, if I fly, this would just be crazy. And you know what? You've had some par delicious guests that I have thoroughly enjoyed, really, to my core. So it all worked out for the best. I'm here virtually for a lovely day and we're going to crush it. It's going to be part delicious. It is.
- [05:41]
A
It's going to be incredibly steamy and toasty because we will do pop culture. And I know you care about pop culture, so, like, hopefully deeply the meat of the pop culture. Like, sometimes there's more meat on the bone, sometimes there's less. It just really depends on the guest. So I think you're going to get like, typical elk of toast here today. But I can't. I make no promises. Because one thing about me and you, we are chatty. And one thing about me, like, I'm interested in conversation with friends. Like, if the convo is a flowing, we ain't doing the.
- [06:11]
B
We ain't slowing. No, it's true. And then we will also get to have two podcast hosts at the same time who might speak through frogs in their throats. So everyone will be just, like, so jazzed.
- [06:21]
A
And they're pregnant and they're redheads. We talk about a lot how we're both redheads. And, like, growing up, we could have never been friends because, like, I couldn't be seen next to another redhead.
- [06:29]
B
Isn't that crazy? Like, diabolical? Like, there was, like, you know, one other redhead that went to my high school, and she was gorgeous. And I was like.
- [06:36]
A
Like, it was like, weren't you gorgeous? Like, you were Miss Teen usa?
- [06:40]
B
I wouldn't say, like, I wouldn't say. People would look back at me in high school and be like, that girl was gorgeous. Like, I think I did pageants and I won a lot of, like, personality points and whenever I had my hair and makeup professionally done at 17, like, but even, like, when I won Miss South Carolina Teen, like, if you looked at the lineup, the girls were prettier. I just had the personality, honey. And when you're a teen, they kind of care about that kind of stuff. A personality hired. They care more about your personality and being cute and fun. When you're a teen versus, like, when you were like, a miss, they're like, who the is the hottest? And also it's kind of smart, but, like, who's hot.
- [07:15]
A
Yeah, I guess that makes sense. When I think back to, like, elementary school, high school, like, anyone in my class who was, like, a model, like a child model, they were, like, totally nice looking, but they weren't, like, the most gorgeous person in the class. Like, they just, like, were doing modeling, you know, but then they were nice looking.
- [07:30]
B
Right.
- [07:31]
A
It was just like, that didn't automatically make them, like, the most beautiful. I don't know.
- [07:36]
B
Yeah. Yeah, I agree.
- [07:37]
A
Do you think I was the most beautiful?
- [07:39]
B
Because I was most beautiful. Do you think they still do, you know, superlatives? Did you guys have that at your Jewish high school?
- [07:45]
A
We did, I think.
- [07:47]
B
Okay, I. I know you guys are obsessed with high school, like, culture, and so obviously I went to, like, a very classic high school movie. Yeah, like, totally. And the. The superlatives, I think back, I'm like, I think they're all too woke to do the stuff we did. We had best looking. Like, we had, like, someone won best looking.
- [08:06]
A
What were you.
- [08:07]
B
Not that. But I did. I will say I won. I won two superlatives. And they reached out to Me and said, you're only. Like, we can only give you one. Which one would you prefer? And it was best dressed or most likely to end up on TV one day. And I chose best dressed because I thought I'd put a lot more work into that.
- [08:27]
A
That's good. That's good. And you also were the best dress, and you were the most likely to end up on TV one day because life took you to reality television and then to podcasting.
- [08:36]
B
Yes, that's true.
- [08:38]
A
People don't. I feel like not enough people know that Shannon Ford's breakout role was on Very Cavallari.
- [08:44]
B
Not enough people know.
- [08:45]
A
Not enough people. I genuinely forget that about you.
- [08:48]
B
Wait, really? I thought you were being sarcastic.
- [08:50]
A
No, I watched the show too, when it was live.
- [08:53]
B
Wow.
- [08:54]
A
That's not fine, those episodes. Because I don't want to know what he said about you.
- [08:57]
B
No, no, it's. You know, they still play reruns, and people are all the time like, reruns. Get that check Queen. I'm like, I don't make residuals from this shit. Like, they paid us $1,500 an episode back then, which obviously, you know, it was a springboard to the current life I have. So I'm. I'm forever grateful. But it's just crazy because I feel like that's really. That's a marker of success if people remember you as something else other than, like, the girl that was on Very Cavalieri. But I actually feel like everyone is always like, you were on that Kirsten Cavallari show.
- [09:25]
A
No. And what's so funny is, like, we talk about Kristen a lot on this show. I'm actually, like, a big fan of hers. But then I have to, like, be like, wait, my best friend's got beef?
- [09:32]
B
Like, no, we don't anymore. Really.
- [09:34]
A
I know, but, like, from the show, like, she fired you, so I'm like, right. Maybe I can stand so hard.
- [09:40]
B
No, like, we'll stand a little less. No, no, no. It's. It's a little less. It's great. We're very cordial. It's fine.
- [09:49]
A
I know. I figured. And also, it is like tv. And it was very much so long ago, dramatized, for sure. But sometimes I remember that we were really beefing you. You were?
- [10:00]
B
Yeah, we were really beefing because you.
- [10:02]
A
Weren'T doing a good job as the social media manager.
- [10:04]
B
No, I was doing a very, very, very bad job. And now that I'm doing a bad job on purpose.
- [10:09]
A
Like, why were you doing a bad job, Shannon? You're A hard worker.
- [10:12]
B
Sometimes I was doing a bad job to play it up on tv. Like, oops, I forgot to do this.
- [10:16]
A
I.
- [10:16]
B
But like I would say if you had to put a percentage to it, 9, 85 to 90% of the time I was just doing a bad job. I just, I had all the crux to have like the ideas and the creative, but I actually didn't have the like, like sit down and do it. Yeah, yeah. So hard worker. I think when it's something to do with me. And I really. She was spot on. I mean at the end when she fired me, she was like, she cares more about her own shit than my. And I was like, true. Like, yeah, yeah. But you know, I was 22. I. Not that that's an excuse. You should all like do your job at 22 that you're hired to do and paid to do. But I look back at that now.
- [10:54]
A
And I'm like, fired.
- [10:56]
B
Come on. Yeah, I'm a great story to tell. I'm like a cautionary tale. Like if you don't do your job at 22, like you could get really fired.
- [11:05]
A
But you're also an inspiring tale because you, I think you were then set off in the right direction to work on Shan things.
- [11:12]
B
Yeah. And like I do love one. Like the only bit of shade that I will always throw that I'm like, ha ha is like one of like her big like punch up lines at the end when I got fired, she was like, and you know what, Good luck with your next boss, Shannon, because I'm sure you're going to have the same problems. And I'm always like, never had another boss. Actually, you guys, TTN and I can.
- [11:32]
A
Say we don't have the same problem. Shannon is a very hard worker. She's always doing episodes even though she's like always like sick and the world is working against her and she always crushes it.
- [11:42]
B
Yeah, I've got to get. I've been speaking to you guys about getting a Jewish evil eye necklace or bracelet or something. I need. I need some protection in my life.
- [11:49]
A
Yeah, I love that. Well, I'm wishing you well in all of your various ailments, but you would never know it today. And you sound great and I just like want you to be well.
- [11:56]
B
Thank you.
- [11:56]
A
And have common peace. How are you feeling in this stage of pregnancy in life?
- [12:01]
B
You know, I don't want to jinx it, but like my pregnancy's been great. Like I really wasn't super. I was very nauseous in the beginning. I cracked up when you posted. Like, oh my God, I posted my crunchwrap supreme and then everyone was tagging me in their crunchwrap Supremes and I wanted to die. No, that's how I felt. Like I had a very big aversion to like meat related things. And just like people were posting their foods and I was like, go to jail. Like, go to hell. Anyone posting their food. Which is so ironic because I post my food all the time and no one was even posting particularly nasty things. They were just posting, you know, their meat and threes. And I was like, disgusting. But that kind of really alleviated. The second I got to like my 13, 14 week, whatever week it was, I saw the light at the end of the tunnel and then I got there and all of a sudden I woke up and I was like, I can drink my coffee again. I want a steak and potatoes. I love chicken. Like everything kind of just alleviated and I never was actually throwing up, which was nice.
- [12:54]
A
That is nice. I made steak last night, which is like kind of major. I barely been cooking.
- [12:59]
B
I saw that. Well, I saw that you were just eating meat and I was like, I was eating meat.
- [13:02]
A
Because also, like our meals for the week are kind of dictated by what kosher meat they have at Publix that day. Cuz sometimes most of the time they just have chicken breasts. But like they had these pepper steaks and Zach bought them. So I was like, okay, it looks like we're having pepper steak and onion. Cuz what else do you make with that?
- [13:16]
B
Yeah, it's very fajita vibes, right?
- [13:18]
A
Fajita vibes. And now I want to make that with chicken. That's what we for tonight.
- [13:23]
B
That would be great.
- [13:24]
A
Also favorite meal, we call it chicken rocks in our house. I didn't realize it was just chicken, steak and onion.
- [13:28]
B
Why do y' all call that chicken rocks? Because chicken rocks. Or it's like the chicken looks like rocks.
- [13:33]
A
Chicken looks like rocks.
- [13:34]
B
Okay.
- [13:35]
A
The chicken looks like rocks.
- [13:37]
B
I've been. I'm not kidding. I've been really wondering.
- [13:40]
A
It's like what we've called it since like our brains could only form the words like chicken rocks since we were we little.
- [13:48]
B
Yeah, yeah.
- [13:49]
A
But now it's chicken. Nice. But chicken rocks.
- [13:51]
B
Chicken rock. Rock on poultry. Yeah, I. I've been good other than just like sinus stuff and like, I don't know, like, like random rashes. Things are just elevated. Being a ginger and being pregnant, but other than that, I feel good. My coccydynia comes and goes. You Know, I'm. I'm standing in solidarity with. With Turdi there was diagnosed with coccidentia. And sometimes I'm like, oh, that doesn't exist, and that's made up and it's fake. And then sometimes I'm literally like, my coccynia, like, it's, like, so bad.
- [14:26]
A
I'm glad that they gave you guys, like, a big name to accompany the elements so you can feel validated in your pain.
- [14:33]
B
Yeah. I know you believe more in the sciatica of it all, which is fine.
- [14:37]
A
I have sciatica, and because I ran out of, like, my magnesium some, like, I got to the bottom of the jar. And then I was in New York, so I didn't order a new one. So I probably went without magnesium for, like, a week and a half, two weeks. And so I'm gonna. I'm in a not great spot.
- [14:49]
B
Oh, yeah, you fell off the wagon. You gotta get back on.
- [14:52]
A
I've got to get back on. And I. I know it's like, you know, I'm privileged that I've never experienced coccydynia.
- [14:59]
B
Yeah.
- [15:00]
A
Crazy. And actually some toasters, because we said, like, which one's worse? Coccidentia and sciatica. Like, which one's worse? And they said sciatica. But Claudia, in her pregnancy, like, got sciatica too, and she said, coccynia is way worse. But of course she's gonna say.
- [15:16]
B
But she would say that. But you know what? I think coccydinia kind of, like, hit you out. And is it sciatica more of, like a radiating, like, constant pain?
- [15:24]
A
Yes. Like. But it also was, like, really bad when I, like, try and get up from my seat.
- [15:29]
B
You might have.
- [15:31]
A
I might. I don't think that I do because, like, literally, and it's so weird, and I both had tushy problems at the same time. They came about at this stage in our life, and we're, like, describing our pain, and it's not the same thing.
- [15:41]
B
Yeah. When I described it to Claudia, because I think she wanted to really make sure that I was allowed to join the club of coccydinia. And she was like.
- [15:47]
A
She gatekeeps for sure.
- [15:48]
B
She was like, that's my ailment. But she was like, that's coccidentia. And I was like, well, here we are.
- [15:55]
A
But on the other hand, I do think, like, you're good for the movement. I think you're good for the cause because you raise a lot of awareness.
- [16:00]
B
Right.
- [16:01]
A
You're very charitable.
- [16:02]
B
Yeah.
- [16:03]
A
And I would Want you on the board of my ailment as well.
- [16:06]
B
Thank you so much. Yeah, it's been fun to be pregnant the same time as you guys. Although you and I both spoke about how we don't really feel like we were pregnant with Claudia, but she was like a really fun cheat code for me because her and I are very honest with each other. So I would text her, probably annoy the out of her and just ask so many questions because she had already experienced them and she was on a really nice timeline ahead of me so that she really. She hadn't like just experienced, she had like some time frame with it and she was able to tell me that kind of stuff versus it's hard for me to compare with my best friend. People would be like, what about your best friend who has three kids?
- [16:37]
A
What about Taylor? Three kids, but she has H birth.
- [16:40]
B
She has HG when she's pregnant, which is horrible if you guys know what that is. You're just. You're violently, violently ill for the entire nine months. So it's really hard. Cuz I'll ask her stuff and then I'll be like, why am I even asking her? She's going to be like, I don't know. I was dying.
- [16:54]
A
Right.
- [16:54]
B
It's not a good Richter scale.
- [16:55]
A
It's not apples to apples. Understood. Okay, well, I'm always here for you if you need me. I feel like we've had like similar, similar elk of. Of pregnancy symptoms.
- [17:05]
B
100%. Thank you for being here for me.
- [17:07]
A
I'm always here for you. Shani. Shannon. We were gonna have so much fun this week. That's what the kids called her. Shady. You stayed with us recently with James.
- [17:18]
B
Yeah.
- [17:18]
A
He said he sounded like Paddington.
- [17:20]
B
Yes, they. He sound like Paddington. Oh my gosh. The boys. I really was looking forward to seeing the boys. It's. We would have just had the best of times, but. No, it's. It's for the best that I'm here and I miss the boys. They'll only just miss me more.
- [17:34]
A
It's true, they will. And then you'll have to come back one day with Bebe and we'll. Do you think you're child will have a little bit of an accent? Is that how that works?
- [17:41]
B
No way. I mean it's going to be growing up in the south. It's probably going to sound more southern than me, you know.
- [17:46]
A
Oh, true.
- [17:47]
B
Like it just. It's your environment. Like it might have. It might say different words. Like it might randomly call the trash the bin and people Be like, what are you talking about? But. But it's not going to have a British accent. Like, you are. You are a product, and I have.
- [18:00]
A
A Southern accent using British words. Be like, you've been through the war.
- [18:05]
B
Yeah. Excuse me. No, it's so funny because it is gonna, like, say these things, and your inflection will really start to change.
- [18:16]
A
Yeah.
- [18:17]
B
People call me out on it, but I'm like, around James 24:7. But I'll be like, should we go to the store? And people are like, you just said that British. And I'm like, no, I didn't. But the inflection in my voice said it British.
- [18:27]
A
Wow. So do you have more sympathy now for people like Dorit Kemsley and Meghan Markle and, like, Madonna who sort of shapeshift in their vernacular? And people say they're, like, putting on. Or like Lindsay Lohan when she was, like, living internationally and speaking differently?
- [18:41]
B
Like, I don't think is everyone. I don't think anyone has ever thought to me, like, girl, you're literally trying to sound British. I just. My really close friend. No, I don't actually have sympathy for them. I feel like they're, like, putting things on a little bit. I. I truly just. It's sometimes my inflection, and I always catch it. I'm always like, oh, that just sounded like it's. They go up when we go down. We'd be like, do you want to go to the movies? And they'd be like, do you want to go to the movies? It's. It's. It's like that.
- [19:06]
A
Okay, I understand. I feel like it would be so hard not to pick up on that. I pick up on everything everyone around me says. Like, even my children, I speak. Like, that is not my favorite one. I was trying to have a call yesterday with someone and say I didn't like something was not to my liking. And I was like, all that could come out of my mouth is, that's not my favorite one.
- [19:24]
B
You would love it. That's like, I have to, like, not.
- [19:26]
A
It's either not my favorite one or you will love it.
- [19:28]
B
I don't like you. Like, I have to, like, not say things, and those are just toasty isms. Like, I was not there when that child said that. But, like, it's really hard for me not to use those verbiage in everyday life where it's like, I don't know, not appropriate. You're, like, in a corporate meeting, and I'm like, I don't like you. You Would love it.
- [19:44]
A
Even the way Zach and I talk to each other. Like, the way Harry says, I did, or, yeah, I did. Zach, I'll be like, zach to give you the dishes. I did.
- [19:53]
B
I did Taylor's kids. Well, one of them particularly always goes, ask it if she's scared of anything. And so now anytime we would say, like, I'm scared. Like, if I was just like, I don't know, I'm scared of it, I'd be like, you know, I'm scared sometimes.
- [20:06]
A
Zach and I will be having, like, a serious conversation or even, like, a fight, and, like, one of us will slip into talking. I did actually, like, great.
- [20:15]
B
Yeah.
- [20:15]
A
I was gonna say, like, just laughing.
- [20:17]
B
We're like, okay, that's a great diffuser. What are the stories like today? Are they good? Are they bad? Do we come with some, like, heat or what?
- [20:26]
A
The stories are good. Some of them are, like, ongoing stories from, like, what we've been discussing. So I look forward to getting Shanny's thoughts.
- [20:34]
B
I didn't want to cheat. I was going to text you, and I'm not trying to rush through the fast five banter, but I was curious, and then I was like, don't ask her. Let this be your true moment as a toasty co host.
- [20:45]
A
Okay, well, a little behind the scenes tea is. When I do have a co host, I will give them the story. Some people ask for them, like, immediately.
- [20:51]
B
Sure.
- [20:52]
A
I want to know what we're talking about. They want to be prepared, and they get, like, a little worried. And then sometimes I just, like, when I sit down with the person, I'm like, by the way, these are the stories. They're, like, great. Especially if they do pop culture. Um, nothing about today's stories is surprising or controversial. And you're professional, so I. I thought it would be fun to do the Claudia, where it's like, you don't know what the story.
- [21:09]
B
Of course. And you know what?
- [21:10]
A
I really try textbook toast today. Even, like, the cadence. If we. If we slip into the stories soon, like, it's getting textbook toast.
- [21:16]
B
It's giving Turdy's replacement. No, never. Relax. I. I really genuinely try not to abuse my, like, friendship privileges with you guys because I really enjoy being a toaster. Like, I could have texted. I didn't know when the birth story was coming out, and I was like, I'll find out on Patreon with the rest of them. Like, I am such a fan of the toast, such a fan of you guys. But also, the caveat is, we're real life Friends. So I try to like, you know, not, not abuse my, my friendship privileges and just let the toast happen.
- [21:46]
A
No, but like a major perk is like if we say something on the show where it's like one of those situations but we're texting each other on the show and being annoying and secretive. Like, you text us and you're like, what was this?
- [21:54]
B
Who the fuck we all talking about? 100%. Yeah.
- [21:56]
A
And like we always will tell you. And that must be nice.
- [21:59]
B
That's really nice. That's a nice little perfect perk.
- [22:02]
A
Yeah. And I'm sorry for the rest of you that you don't get it. Like, I wish I could tell everyone.
- [22:06]
B
All of our secrets and, and like, I don't have to really dive deep for lore. Like, if I, I didn't understand the. You would love it. I didn't know the origin story of that, so I just shot you a text. Like, where does you would love it come from? And Claudia's like, oh, that's because. And I didn't have to like really go through and like try to find it.
- [22:22]
A
Yeah. Which is nice. Definitely like a cheat sheet, which is nice.
- [22:26]
B
Agreed.
- [22:28]
A
Well, we're gonna get into the fast five stories now that you do that do need to know. And today's episode of the Toast is brought to you by Taylor Farms. Because Taylor Farms is a party brand. Spartans during a fellow pargy brand. We love Taylor Farms chop salad kits. It is so easy to get your salad together. They come pre chopped, pre washed, no chopping, slicing, or leaving half a vegetable in your fridge. They are made with fresh greens, yummy dressing and toppings. Everything, just mix it up and give yourself a round of applause. So yes, everything in the kit is made for a perfect salad. They have sweet kale, Caesar, avocado, ranch, Mediterranean crunch. But then you could also ad lib, add some protein on top, add a hard boiled egg. Like whatever you're feeling, you can really customize it and make it your own. And that's what I personally love to do.
- [23:15]
B
That's what I do go to I level all of them. Like, I just had their Mexican salad version, whatever it is. And I added black beans, I added corn, I added avocado. And all of a sudden James was like, oh my God, you're the salad queen. And he had no idea that it came from a Taylor Farms bag.
- [23:31]
A
Right. And that you didn't even get out your cutting board. But that sounds really good. I want to have a Mexican street corn one with like taco meat, corn beans, it was so good. Not really mixing meat and cheese at.
- [23:41]
B
The moment would be a great side for your fajitas that you're making.
- [23:45]
A
It would be for chicken rocks. Oh, my God, Shannon. It's so early in the episode to be getting so hungry, but Taylor Farms salad kids are sold at all major grocery stores, so go to the salad aisle.

- [27:48]
B
But you guys are gonna do an episode where you recap all the stuff she missed, which is great.
- [27:53]
A
Yes. This is a big one. This one. Like we've might have called for an emergency episode of the Toast, but oh, not exactly. Tarek El Moussa cited the battery following a heated physical altercation in the Las Vegas casino. Tariff was cited for battery after he allegedly knocked a man out in Las Vegas last week. The HGTV star and another male were involved in an altercation at the Palazzo at the Venetian resort in sin City on June 5th. The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department confirmed to page six yesterday. Witnesses alleged to TMZ who was the first to report the news that they saw Tarik deliver a knee to the man's head, which knocked him out.
- [28:29]
B
God.
- [28:30]
A
An onlooker claimed to the outlet that the incident was bad, adding that the guy looked seriously hurt. The alleged victim reportedly refused medical attention. A source told Page Six that Tarek was protecting his elderly father after the man allegedly got out of line with Tarik's dad. Okay, so that's Tarik's side.
- [28:47]
B
Okay.
- [28:47]
A
Cops arrived at the scene around 11pm and took a crime report. Though they declined to arrest Tarek, he was cited for battery.
- [28:55]
B
Now, I will say, and I am very deeply sorry that Claudia is not here to speak on this. In the beginning of the story, I was like, this guy is so violent. Oh my God. But the fact that the other guy isn't pressing charges does make me want, like wonder if there's like casino footage where he's like, oh, shit, I was really dogging on this elderly man and it was self defense and I'm going to get screwed if I press charges. But also, maybe Tarek was like in a casino, pulled out a fat wad of cash and was like, keep your mouth closed.
- [29:25]
A
Right. I feel like it's not a good look for Tark, especially because he did the hike with the gun. He did the hike with the gun and then things got really quiet and he's moved on in his life and you could say like, okay, that was a one off thing. And like, don't judge him by the gun and the height.
- [29:41]
B
Not if you're Claudia, you could not say that.
- [29:43]
A
Right. But like it was. The more time we moved on from that without incident from Tarik, like, the more it just seemed like Tarte had a bad moment.
- [29:50]
B
Moment, yeah.
- [29:51]
A
So when Tariq is involved in a situation like this where it's violent and there's a knee to the head, which like, that's crazy.
- [29:57]
B
That's so aggressive, like, knee. How do you even get that position? Knee to head is crazy.
- [30:03]
A
Gun, hike. Tark comes out. And so you see like, okay, that person is there. Now if this were someone else in the story is like that they were berating the elderly father, like, good, knock him out.
- [30:13]
B
Yeah.
- [30:15]
A
But I don't know, I feel like with Tark it's like just, it's sort of something that you have to keep in mind. Like, does he just have this like violence inside of him?
- [30:22]
B
Yeah, it feels like something deep rooted that kind of just like makes itself known publicly.
- [30:28]
A
Two situations where Tariq, like the misunderstanding of Tarek El Moussa. Like, he said he went on the hike and he took his gun because of mountain lions.
- [30:36]
B
Okay.
- [30:38]
A
And then if he's protecting his father, like, once again, like, is someone framing Tariq and is it us?
- [30:44]
B
I don't think so. I also just think it's interesting that these things keep happening so publicly. Like, it does lend my brain to wonder, is he violent behind closed doors? Like, what are we not seeing happen? Are there knees to heads that aren't in casinos? Who knows?
- [30:58]
A
Right? Because everything in the casino is on camera. And I do agree with you. Like, the fact that he wasn't arrested does. Is a check in his column, but he was cited for battery, so it's not totally innocent.
- [31:11]
B
Yeah, I. Like, there's no more details. I want the person to come forward, but maybe they won't because they're, like, guilty as well.
- [31:17]
A
Yeah. Like, what? They're coming after an old man? Also not cool.
- [31:20]
B
I think. I think if someone would love nothing more than to press charges against a famous guy that has a lot of money for kneeing him in the head and knocking him out cold. So the fact that the guy's like, I'm not pressing charges does lend me to think, like, maybe he was also at fault.
- [31:34]
A
Yeah, I agree. It's not, like, the smoking gun against Tariq. It's just, like, unfortunate. And I guess we'll see what happens next. If anything happens next. Like, if.
- [31:44]
B
If all it's quiet, it's weirdly better than the hike. Like, it's oddly better because, like, no mountain lion could come forward and be like, yeah, I saw him with the gun, and I was out of there. Like, we do have this other version of, like, he didn't press charges. So.
- [32:00]
A
So are we giving him a pass? Are we giving grace? Claudia wouldn't.
- [32:04]
B
I'll say, had he. Had he punched him, I would give him a little grace. Knee to head is crazy to give grace on. Like. Like, that's crazy.
- [32:14]
A
I agree. It's like a long journey from knee to head.
- [32:18]
B
Yeah. Like, when you watch, like, any kind of, like, violent fight scene once. I see, obviously they're all fake on movies or whatever, but, like, I was just watching the Lincoln Lawyer, and they, like, get him on the ground, and then they start kicking him, and I'm like, when they start kicking, I'm like, oh, my God. My God. Like, that's just crazy. That is such a different level than, like, punching than a punch, which is.
- [32:36]
A
Sort of like a reflex sometimes. Like, Right. As opposed to, okay, let me Bring your head to my knee.
- [32:42]
B
Knee to head feels like very, like, jujitsu vibes. Like, oh, like you were thinking, like, you've been wanting to do that.
- [32:48]
A
Yeah. But I just want to say, if this were someone else, like, I could read the story entirely differently. Like, say it was a p. Job, man. Say it was Glenn Powell and he needs someone in the head who he said was, like, berating his elder father. That would be, like, so attractive.
- [33:03]
B
We would be like, team Glenn. Yeah, go Glen Coco. A hundred percent we would say that.
- [33:08]
A
But Glenn didn't go in the mountains with a gun and get caught. Maybe he did, but he didn't get caught.
- [33:14]
B
Right.
- [33:14]
A
And then he didn't, like, see the helicopter and said, it's me, Tariq.
- [33:17]
B
Weirdly, if Glenn Powell was, like, caught tripsing through the woods with a gun, I'd be like, hot.
- [33:23]
A
Right.
- [33:23]
B
And if he was like, I'm looking out for mountain lions, I'm like, he's protecting all of us. Like.
- [33:30]
A
I completely agree. I think there's some anti Tariq bias that we need to, like, explore. We should look inward, but I don't. I do think, like, exploring that without Claudia here, like, is fruitless because she's always going to bring us back.
- [33:43]
B
Right?
- [33:44]
A
Being anti Taric.
- [33:45]
B
No, no. And. And. And I would go there for her. I really would. She'd get me back there.
- [33:50]
A
Yeah, me too. Just. You can't forget Tarik's arm tyke.
- [33:54]
B
You can't. I saw her post or I saw Ben hold up the phone yesterday, and I was cracking up, but I kind of forgot about it being a story. But that's really funny.
- [34:02]
A
Yeah. Major, major news.
- [34:05]
B
It's also funny that, like, if you were walking around the woods in a different state with a gun, people would be like, hell yeah, brother. But, like, like, I'm in Florida. People probably go to Publix with their guns, but.
- [34:14]
A
Right, right. But there we're in California, I think. So it's like a big deal if you're just.
- [34:18]
B
Big deal that you're hiking around with a gun. But, like, again, situationally, by the way.
- [34:21]
A
After an argument in the woods, like, there's just more.
- [34:25]
B
No, I agree. I agree. Yeah.
- [34:28]
A
Are you ready for our next story? Which is a confirmation from a story that we talked about yesterday, which is that Aaron Rodgers is confirming he got married a couple months ago in a surprise wedding. So Aaron was spotted with a wedding ring on his finger. People are like, is he married? And, yeah, he is. He said that he was dating a woman named Britney and Later, they sparked marriage rumors, and now he's confirming those rumors that the wedding took place a few months ago. But he did not share any other details.
- [34:53]
B
He was so blase in the interview, too. He's like. They're like, what's that ring? Is that like an aura ring or is that, like, you know, a wedding ring? And he goes, yeah, it's. It's a wedding ring. And I was like, God, I don't know how to explain that. If, like, I was his wife, I'd be like, like, yeah, it's a wedding wing. And he was. They were like, oh, how long are you married? And he's like, few months. Like, I, like, like, I just. He gives me.
- [35:16]
A
Yeah, but I just thought he was never going to get married. Because if you didn't marry Shailene, Olivia or Danica.
- [35:23]
B
I know. Isn't it crazy how of recently I feel like I always do. The news cycle gets a little old, so maybe they, like, repurpose stories. But I feel like I still always. At least, like, once bi monthly or once a quarter, you see another article come out about one of those women being like, it was a horrible relationship and, like, I'm scarred.
- [35:41]
A
Yeah, I think he's tough to take. Not for Brittany in a personal relationship. That's what I was always say about him. That, like, I enjoy, like, following him as a celebrity. But I. I couldn't have a conversation with him.
- [35:54]
B
Right, but you watched his documentary and you said you felt differently about him, right?
- [35:58]
A
Yeah, I had, like, more understanding of him, and I think he's just, like, an interesting guy, and he's very serious, and he takes himself very seriously, and he's very committed to what he does. And so I think he's an interesting figure. But I would not want to sit down, have a conversation with him while he tells me about what he saw on his ayahuasca trip. Like, I'm good on that.
- [36:13]
B
Right? Ayahuasca. It's so crazy to think when you guys were talking about yesterday's episode with Jared and you were like, I'm scared to lose 10 pounds. Jared said, because he's like, what if I'm not me anymore? I think about that stuff with, like, really transformative drugs because I. I'm someone that, like, will try any drug once, obviously not while I'm pregnant.
- [36:31]
A
But have you tried ayahuasca?
- [36:33]
B
No, because I'm so afraid that it would, like, awaken a different version of me. That would be, like, boring. Like, what if I just, like, lost me, you know? Like, I woke up and was like, wait, I should stop interrupting people. I should really just try to be quiet more often and listen rather than speak. Like, what the. Like, that would scare me so bad, you know?
- [36:51]
A
Oh, interesting. I feel like for you, and maybe for me, like, I would have the experience of being like, I didn't feel anything. Like, oh, really? I would just. American Jake took his dad and his girlfriend, Utah Queen, to an ayahuasca retreat. She was like, she's all in. And she was, like, really excited to do it with him and be transformed. And she was like, I didn't see anything.
- [37:13]
B
Do you know why I think that is for her, though? I think she's, like, a hard bitch. Like, I think she's a badass bitch who's like, literally, like, stone. Like, she's so sporty. She's so all these things. Like, she's like a brick wall of just, like, she could do anything and, like, get past anything in her life. So, like, it didn't even. Like, maybe they should have given her more, you know? I don't know. I think me, I would just, like, puke for three days and then also be like, I saw, like, crazy.
- [37:38]
A
I would 1000% puke, and I would not like it. It would not be my favorite one. Yeah, I don't think anything positive would come out of an ayahuasca trip. For me, personally.
- [37:47]
B
I don't want to do anything that I have to sit in a hut for. Like, I. I know you have to, like, really take it seriously. Like, you have to have to drink.
- [37:52]
A
That water that makes you throw up.
- [37:54]
B
You have to have, like, a shaman, and you have to be, like, really, like, sweaty. And, like, it just doesn't seem like something for me. Like, I would like to do, like, drugs of the luxury category and just, like, fun settings like Ibiza. Like, looking cute. Not, like, you know, also, this is not, you know, a pro drug forum, guys, on the toast, but I'm just saying, ayahuasca wouldn't be for me.
- [38:14]
A
Okay. And have you taken any hallucinogenics?
- [38:18]
B
No, I've never done the amount of mushrooms you would do to see. So you know what? I kind of do draw the line at hallucinogenics because I'm just kind of afraid of them. Like, Like, I've never done acid. I've never done anything that would make me really, like, shape shift, because I think that would, like, I'm too much of a thinker. I'd be like, oh, my God. Yeah, that would be, like, A bit much. So, yeah, it's not on my journey.
- [38:40]
A
Okay. Watch, wait and see.
- [38:43]
B
We'll see.
- [38:43]
A
You and I, maybe that's, like, what's next, you know, for us together.
- [38:47]
B
Like.
- [38:47]
A
Yeah, just for, like, in our circle, like, in our journeys. Like, first it's sourdough, Right. It's ayahuasca.
- [38:55]
B
Imagine you and I just one day are like, you know what me and Jackie should do this weekend? We should do ayahuasca together.
- [39:01]
A
Yeah, I highly doubt it. But, like, I never thought I'd be making my own bread that's fermenting in my cupboard. Like, I never thought that.
- [39:09]
B
And sourdough, they do say, is the gateway drug to Iowa.
- [39:12]
A
So are you still doing sourdough?
- [39:16]
B
I. I haven't. I've fallen off the wagon. I get in it, and then I'm in the thick of it because, you know, it's something that you really have to stay on top of. Like.
- [39:23]
A
Yeah, like, if you want bread tomorrow, you needed to start yesterday.
- [39:26]
B
Yeah. And I, like, my starter was producing the exact amount. It was pargi starter I got from one of my neighbors. It was really strong and wonderful, but it was producing the exact amount to make a loaf. And then I wasn't able to have enough to, like, just keep a lot of it. It would. It would be discard. And then I. I get a bit intimidated by reintroducing discard as starter and, like, refeeding it. And then I would just be like, this is too much. I'm just like, I don't feel like doing this today. I'm trying to get, like, the nursery done. I'm trying to do so much, like. But it is easy if you can time it right. Maybe. I know this sounds like a crazy concept, but maybe after I have my baby, I'll be on such a routine schedule that I can insert the sourdough back in there at a time that makes sense for me. But right now it feels like I don't have enough time to do it, so I don't know why. Having a kid would make that easier.
- [40:15]
A
No, but it puts you on a schedule. Like, every day of my. Like, things. Little things change. But, like, my overall structure of my day is the same. So when I'm doing sourdough, like, I know when I clean up the kitchen, you could do that. That's when I'm gonna feed my starter, and then I know I'm gonna start my bread the next morning, like, while the boys are having breakfast. And then when I'm cleaning up, dinner is When I do my shapings, like, we just, like. And. But every day is the same like that.
- [40:38]
B
Yeah. And it's. It's the temperature of it all got really, like, chemical and, like, confusing to me because we would let. I would do mine overnight where you would let it. What's the word? Not rise, but bulk ferment. Yeah, bulk ferment overnight. But James and I sleep. Our bedroom is downstairs. It's the only bedroom downstairs. And we sleep. He's insane. I honestly do kind of like it, but we sleep with the house at 64 or 65 degrees. That's really cold for bread. And so my kitchen would be that temperature as well. And so I know some people are like, I keep my bread, like, upstairs in a closet. I'm like, oh, this is just getting too much.
- [41:12]
A
Like, I just like the stairs.
- [41:14]
B
My sourdough upstairs in its own room.
- [41:17]
A
Like, it's already bread. That takes 36 hours. I can't walk upstairs.
- [41:20]
B
Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I want to get back into it. I honestly was, like, pretty good at it. I learned how to make a sandwich loaf, which is a lot easier. We were going through sandwich loafs like crazy because it's so nice and easy to eat. Like, yeah, really?
- [41:34]
A
So is sourdough sandwich loaf. Like, do you use yeast?
- [41:37]
B
It was the same. It was the same concept. I used all the same ingredients, but. But added honey and, like, salt and oil, and then obviously, like, folded a different. Put in a different pan. But it was so much easier to use. Like, sourdough is, like, a very chewy.
- [41:53]
A
You know, that saw out. Start chopping sourdough.
- [41:57]
B
Yeah. And so maybe I'll get back into the sandwich bread. We'll see.
- [42:01]
A
We'll see. Our next story, Glenn Powell's ex is speaking out on the actor leaning into the Sydney Sweeney romance rumors to boost anyone but you publicity.
- [42:10]
B
Yeah.
- [42:11]
A
So Glenn's ex, Gigi Paris, who he was dating when anyone but you came out, when he was rumored to be with Sydney Sweeney, she was sort of like, well, what about Gigi? It was kind of like Bradley Cooper, Lady Gaga, and Irina.
- [42:22]
B
Right.
- [42:22]
A
These two are pretending to be in love, and it's like, wait, but you literally have a lady love, Right?
- [42:27]
B
And she was engaged.
- [42:29]
A
Yes. So she said on a podcast that I just wanted to risk. I just wanted respect, especially if it's going to be in the public. She said, like, don't make an ass out of me. Like, just don't make a fool out of someone you've been with for over three years talking about Forever with just have some decency, you know? And at the end of the day, it was like, well, work comes first. And if that's the case, power to you. That's your priority. I got to walk away. What sucked was how it was handled. I felt like I was just fed to the dogs. It wasn't gaslighting. It was just, this is what I have to do for my job. Yikes. That's a bad look for Gwen, because what she's Glenn. Because what she's saying is, like, Glenn basically said to her, like, I need to pretend to date Sydney Sweeney and pretend to be in love with her to promote my movie. Like, that's part of my job, and you need to be okay with that. Yucky. This is when I'm like, actors are freaks.
- [43:14]
B
I know. It really does paint a different light on someone that you think is, like, this, like, Hollywood heartthrob that's also such a good guy. Like, you know, like, he can carry a gun in the woods. I don't care. He's protecting all of us. Like, it really, really makes him look like, like, very Leo of him. Like, very, like, yucky. I don't like that. Like, oh, he's just like the rest of them. And you kind of put Glenn Powell in a different category, you know, like, yes.
- [43:34]
A
And basically what she was saying is that, like, he was leading all of us on. They were messing with us to convince us to watch their movie. Like, sort of manipulating the audience as opposed to, like, if you wanted to think about the whole situation in a more naive way, it's like, well, him and Sydney just have this natural chemistry from the movie. You got to see the movie to see more of it. And now it's like, no, he's going home telling his girlfriend, like, I have to go pretend to date the hottest girl in the world to sell movie tickets, and you have to be okay with it. And all of this is staged.
- [44:02]
B
Yeah. And it's very much like, I don't correct me if I'm wrong, but Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper never came out. Was like, yeah, we got you. That's what we were doing on purpose. We were all kind of just like. It was one of those things where it's like, you guys, that's where Yalls brain is going. Because we're just such good actors. Like, it's not our fault that we're such good actors. And they could have done that. But I looked into this yesterday when I saw the story. I tap the little link, and I didn't Realize that both Sydney and Glenn on separate occasions admitted, like, yeah, that's what we were doing. Glenn said, like, yeah, Sydney knew what she was doing. She's a genius. Like, the best part, like, best way to get someone to watch your rom com is to make you think what's happening on screen is also happening off screen. And I will say, when all of this was happening, the only thing I remember was that Sydney Sweeney was engaged. And I was like, isn't she fucking engaged? But I didn't really realize he had a long term girlfriend.
- [44:49]
A
I remember him having like a girlfriend. It's just like, oh, okay, girlfriend. Like, if he loves Sydney, love Sydney.
- [44:54]
B
I didn't even thought it was. I'm such a double standard kind of person. Like, that's just one thing about me. And when Sydney was doing it, I was like, fuck her fiance. But knowing that Glenn was doing it to a girl, I'm like, fuck him. That is so wrong. Like, like for Sydney's husband or fiance at the time, I was like, he can get over it. It's her job. She has to do what she has to do. But like, with Glenn knowing he was doing that to like a girl he was dating for three years, it's just like, yucky.
- [45:19]
A
Yeah, it is different for like, it's okay if like a woman does it. Especially like if she's engaged or like in a long term relationship. I just feel like you can count on women to like be committed.
- [45:28]
B
Right?
- [45:28]
A
More so than like a man if he's like seriously flirting with the hottest girl in the world. Like, he's just a man.
- [45:33]
B
Yeah, he's. He and I really. Everything she said in the article I agreed with. She was like, I just had to walk away because, like, that's just like not my standards. So.
- [45:43]
A
Yeah, but good for her because it's Glenn Powell.
- [45:47]
B
Hard to walk away.
- [45:48]
A
Most girls would be like, whatever you say. Like, I'm happy to be here.
- [45:51]
B
Oh, I would literally be like, my man's an actor. He's gotta do what he's gotta do. Like, I, yeah, catch me not telling all your friends.
- [45:58]
A
Like, yeah, they're so.
- [45:59]
B
I'm so cool with it. Like, no, it's fine. Like, yeah, yeah, yeah, I love it. I amp it up. I tell them, do more. Like, that would be me.
- [46:07]
A
No, I guess that's on having self respect.
- [46:10]
B
And that's on having self respect that I don't have if I was dating Glenn Powell.
- [46:14]
A
But like, I don't think for you, Like, I think for most people it would be Like, a lack of self respect. Like, whatever Glenn needs. This is Glenn's process. He's the big star. And I'm just, like, so lucky to be in his presence. But I do. I think that you do have self respect. So maybe there's another angle.
- [46:28]
B
You know, I also. She said all I wanted was him to say is like, no. Like, I'm obviously not cheating on my girlfriend. Like, and she was like, he wouldn't say that. She's like, that's all I wanted. I just wanted him to be like, like, of course I'm not cheating on my girlfriend. And she's like, he could not say that. And that was when I had to dip. And I think, yeah, maybe if it got to that level, I'd be like, okay, this is kind of crazy, because at some point you do you look stupid.
- [46:51]
A
The next logical question is, like, did they ever hook up off camera?
- [46:57]
B
I think for sure.
- [46:59]
A
Like, I don't know why they wouldn't have.
- [47:02]
B
Yeah, I think for sure. Like, I just really, to my bones are like, yeah. But I always wonder that when I watch movies where. Where there's sex scenes or whatever, especially if there are two cast members who are single. I do wonder, like, method acting, if they're like, should we just go bang one out really quick just to make sure this is, like, really, really good on camera for the sex scene? Like, I. I wonder if.
- [47:24]
A
If I. I wonder, like, I don't think that they need to, like, practice hooking up, but I'm like, if you're both single and you're both attractive and you're in the same level of attractiveness to be in this movie, like, why wouldn't you explore something between the two of you?
- [47:37]
B
Yeah, that. Yeah, I think not. But sometimes I feel like people are like, we're definitely not right to date each other, but, like, let's really make sure that this sex scene is so good. Like, let's, you know, hit one out in the trailer and just really get it, like, down pat.
- [47:50]
A
Yeah.
- [47:52]
B
And maybe alleviate some of the awkwardness.
- [47:55]
A
That's so funny.
- [47:57]
B
Anyways, that's what I would do.
- [47:59]
A
That's what you would do?
- [48:00]
B
Yeah, that I'd get, like. I'd get kicked off the set because the actor would be like, she's literally trying to bang me in the trailer. That is inappropriate. I'd be like, what? I'm a girl, You're a dude. I could. I could say that to you, right?
- [48:13]
A
No. And, like, no. Intimacy coordinator Shannon.
- [48:15]
B
Yeah, it would be like, I'd be Like, Jennifer Aniston. I'd be like, I'm a hundred years old. They'd be like, you're 28. I'm 31. But, like, like, you know, I'd be like, I don't need you guys here. This is ridiculous. Let's.
- [48:29]
A
Camera's up. Are you ready for our next story?
- [48:35]
B
I am.
- [48:36]
A
It is our fourth story, and it's a little bit of rumor, which I. I hate to give credence to rumors, but I saw it a couple places this morning. Everyone's just saying that Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom's relationship is on the rocks and really just, like, reporting that as fact. Yeah. There are rumors bubbling that Katie and Orlando's relationship is on rocky ground. One source told Page Six it's over. They're waiting till her tour is over before they split. Her tour is over in December 7th, so I guess we'll know by then. This is kind of surprise. It's like. It's surprising because they've been together for a long time, and, like, he loves her through all of her craziness. And so I would think if you can get, like, to however long they've been together, that you would stay together. But everyone's reporting this fact, and it reminds me of, like, when, like, Kim and Kanye were divorcing or, like, Lala and Randall splitting up.
- [49:20]
B
Yeah.
- [49:20]
A
No, they're not. They love each other.
- [49:22]
B
Yeah.
- [49:22]
A
Like, literally the next day, it's like, go find yourself.
- [49:25]
B
I would think that if a man could stick through you saying, I'm gonna put the ass in astronaut, why couldn't he?
- [49:32]
A
Well, maybe he couldn't stick through the.
- [49:33]
B
Tour, but have you seen videos from the tour?
- [49:37]
A
Yes, but of course, only the worst ones.
- [49:39]
B
Right. I'm sure there's some lovely pargy moments on the tour, but, like, what I've been seeing, like, you really, like, that's like, a man has to, like, love you to your core to, like, really.
- [49:49]
A
But, like, she's always been this way.
- [49:51]
B
Quirky.
- [49:51]
A
I feel like. Yeah. So I feel like he loves her to her core.
- [49:55]
B
What do you think it is then?
- [49:58]
A
I don't know. I don't know. That's why this confounds me a little bit. I'm having a hard time believing it because, like, neither one of them has changed. She's always been this person.
- [50:05]
B
How long have they been together?
- [50:07]
A
They have been together a while. They, like, broke up once in 2017. They had their daughter in 2020. They got engaged in 2019, but they split once in 2017.
- [50:22]
B
But they've been together at least since, like, 16, 17.
- [50:26]
A
Yeah. Yeah.
- [50:27]
B
That's a long time. I mean.
- [50:28]
A
Yeah, that's a long time. And she's been through a lot of career lulls in that time, so it's not just like, oh, she's sort of flopping in Orlando's jumping ship. Like, I. That's why I'm confused.
- [50:39]
B
Yeah. I don't. I can't pinpoint this one because I. I guess I don't know the lore enough of Katy Perry. And I thought just like, recently, she's got. Because maybe. Because I really saw her during her career high, and I was always like, slay, Katie, slay. Like, I kissed a girl. And like, all that teenage dream where she was, like, on the top of the world. And, like, lately I've just been watching the flop after flopping flop, and I'm like, yikes.
- [51:00]
A
Yeah. But he wasn't there for any of that teenage. That was Russell Brand who got all those years, and then he was around for, like, Witness. So, like, bon appetit. Yeah. Spikes, don't forget.
- [51:15]
B
Right.
- [51:16]
A
And then, like, Harley's in Hawaii. Then she had her baby.
- [51:20]
B
So if that opened up a new side to her that he was like, wow.
- [51:23]
A
Yeah. They have their child and she wasn't working as much. And then her first body of work is 143. That's, like the first thing in a few years. And now. So it's like, he's not new to her, being not the most popular. So.
- [51:34]
B
Right. Maybe he's. She's just gone all the time in space on tour. And he's like, enough is enough.
- [51:41]
A
Yeah. Maybe it was because she went to space.
- [51:43]
B
Yeah.
- [51:44]
A
And it was just too far.
- [51:45]
B
Maybe he runs the Wendy's account and.
- [51:47]
A
He'S like, maybe if she was like, he loves Wendy's. And she was like, it's me or.
- [51:54]
B
Wendy's 100, and it's Wendy's.
- [51:59]
A
Well, I do hope that this isn't. Sure, as much as I clown on her, like, I'm rooting for her. And, well, they have a kid. I'm also family splitting are sad. So I hope this isn't true. But, like, I'm getting the feeling I don't know.
- [52:11]
B
Where there's smoke, there's fire.
- [52:13]
A
Because I'm always like, this isn't true. This is a rumor. And I'm always wrong. I'm just trying something new by believing it.
- [52:19]
B
Yeah. But I'm always in agreeance with you on the toast, whenever you say, like, I'm Team Stay Together. Because you guys have children. Like, obviously, I never want someone to be together in a very toxic situation, but if you. If it's something just like, where Orlando Bloom, like, finally got the ick, I'd be like, okay, come on. Stick it out through it.
- [52:34]
A
Or, like, we're growing apart. Grow in a different direction.
- [52:37]
B
Yeah. Stay home more. Right, Agreed.
- [52:41]
A
Yeah. If it's, like, not a toxic, like, violent situation, it's just, like, personality clashes and stuff like that. Like, I think it's worth trying more.
- [52:49]
B
Does he have a kid with Miranda Kerr as well?
- [52:52]
A
I believe so, yeah.
- [52:54]
B
Okay.
- [52:55]
A
Yeah.
- [52:55]
B
So maybe he's just used to leaving.
- [52:57]
A
Oh, damn. Damn.
- [53:01]
B
No, no. It's just sad because then he'll just be like, the old guy that's, like, dating new, like, models and stuff. And I'm just like, no, I don't. Orlando.
- [53:10]
A
I like Leo. But at least, like, he does give them almost 10 years. Children, marriage.
- [53:16]
B
That's true.
- [53:17]
A
A life.
- [53:18]
B
True, true. Okay. Oh, I would like. I would actually like to see them stay together.
- [53:24]
A
Yeah, me too. So hopefully if I. If I think that they're not, that will mean that they are just, like, I'm trying to, like, reverse psychology. Reverse psychology, exactly. Before we get into our next story, I need to let you know that today's episode of the Toast is brought to you by booking.com. booking that.

TaskRabbit Book trusted help for home tasks. I actually have a task rabbit coming this week because we're getting, like, a big car for the boys for, like, that they could drive around because it was their present in exchange for giving up their pacifiers. Oh, the pacifairy, like, the passy fairy came. We're like 11 days sober here.
- [59:50]
B
Wow, that's a really big. Taylor's little girl just did it. And they say, like, after three days, like, that's when they, you know, like, they finally feel clean from it. But it was so funny because one of the little neighbor boys is she.
- [60:01]
A
Which girl?
- [60:02]
B
Lola. And she is three. It was hard because Novi, they're so close in age. And so, like, she had little sister also having passies, which it's just, like, harder. I feel like when you have a sibling that also has them, you just have to do it at the same time because passy fairy at the same time can't take passies from Lola and then not take them from Novi, you know?
- [60:20]
A
Right.
- [60:21]
B
And so anyways, I. I remember there was this sweet, precious kid in the neighborhood, and the mom was very aware that, like, Lola had, you know, she was still itching for her passy. Right? She's still. She's still, still tweaking. She's still yearning. And so we walked over to the neighbor's house. It was so cute. And she was like, I made sure that, you know, Beck didn't have his passy today so that Lola wouldn't see it. And Beck walks down. Beck is even younger than Lola. He's 2. He has no awareness of this. He doesn't know the passy fairy came. Right. It was so funny, the timing. He comes down and he has, like, six passies in his hands. And he's like, passes. We're like, what are you, a dealer? Like, what is this? It's crazy. And it's the worst Timing ever. Because Lola was like, passies. And we're like, no, no, stay strong. Like, don't. Like, you got your token for three days. So from the passy. It's. It's brutal out here, but the passy frame makes it so fun for the kids.
- [61:14]
A
And, yeah, it really wasn't so bad. They were addicted.
- [61:18]
B
Like, oh, yeah.
- [61:19]
A
Beyond. I've never. I mean, I'm sure everybody feels that way. Like, we can never get rid of these things. And then when we were in New York last month, like, and everything was just, like, harder because it was, like, rainy, and, you know, we're in, like, not our space, and they just, like, want passies all the time. And I just. We. We had gotten to a decent place of, like, just using them when they're sleeping or, like, in the car, but then it's like. Or at the table.
- [61:39]
B
Right, right, right. It's a passy. It's a stroller. It's a soother.
- [61:45]
A
So after New York, like, we were in a rough spot. And the night we got home from New York was like, the night the passy ferry came.
- [61:51]
B
Right?
- [61:51]
A
And we've been clean ever since.
- [61:53]
B
Right?
- [61:53]
A
It can be done. And I just. We did it together at the same time. It would not have been fair for one of them to have a passy.
- [61:59]
B
Yeah.
- [61:59]
A
Do you know the other.
- [62:00]
B
What I literally said yesterday? Because I got a gorgeous PR package with a bunch of passies, and Taylor's like, hide those. And I was like, oh, yeah?
- [62:06]
A
Yeah.
- [62:06]
B
And I was like, what do you do with your passies? I was like, when the passy fairy. Hopefully no children are listening to this right now. When the passy fairy takes them, what do you. What do you do, like, with them? Like, you just put them in the attic or whatever for? And she goes, what? We, Shannon. We throw them away. And I was like, I know. Oh, my God. Like, in my brain, I'm like, mom's hand me down. So cute. You've got more kids. And she was like, no, no, they're chewed on Passies. I was like, oh, wait, ew. And she's like, in the attic. No, we would. For the next kid, we'd buy new Pacis. I'm like, right, man, that is such a, like, never had a kid thing to say. Like, what do you do with them anyways? Put them in the attic for the next kid? She's like, no.
- [62:43]
A
Well, what's so funny is Zach orchestrated the Patty Passy ferry, like, delivery and removal service. And then I was in the utility laundry room. I was in the laundry room, like, a few days ago and I found the bag of passies. I'm like, why did, like, I. I forgot to ask him, like, why didn't he throw them in the garbage? I think because he was, like, worried that they might, like, slip and you.
- [63:03]
B
Have like, a meltdown would break loose.
- [63:06]
A
And we wouldn't have one.
- [63:07]
B
Right.
- [63:07]
A
But, like, we need to get rid of them.
- [63:09]
B
Yeah. Yeah. It's like a true addict. Like, keeping a stash, like, just in.
- [63:14]
A
Case flush them so they're getting a cool car to ride around the backyard.
- [63:18]
B
That's very cool.
- [63:20]
A
Thanks, TaskRabbit for assembling it.
- [63:22]
B
Shouts out to us. Grab it.
- [63:24]
A
Our fifth and final story. A little book news. This is like, some of my favorite kind of news. Gemma Chan is joining Five Star Weekend series at Peacock. So five Star Weekend is a book by. Why is her name Escaping? Ellen Hildebrand? She is the queen of summer beach reads. Everything is pretty much set in Nantucket. I actually haven't read Five Star Weekend yet, but I will. But everything else Helen Hildebrand writes is par. Delish.
- [63:48]
B
I don't think I've read any of her stuff. Name some of her heavy hitters. Names of her heavy hitters.
- [63:54]
A
Like the one Hotel Nantucket. Golden Girl.
- [64:00]
B
No. Are they. When I read books, I want someone to die or get like I like. So if no murder mystery, no smut.
- [64:09]
A
Like, okay, read Golden Girl because there is a bit of a mystery.
- [64:15]
B
Okay.
- [64:15]
A
Not a lot of.
- [64:17]
B
That's fine.
- [64:18]
A
She really sets apology scene. And I think that even though it's not your typical vibe, like, I think everybody can like an Elder Hill. Ellen Hildebrand.
- [64:25]
B
Okay.
- [64:25]
A
Oh, the Perfect Couple, which was made into a show on Netflix.
- [64:28]
B
Oh. Still never read that. But I know that ended up being a show on Netflix, so maybe I could.
- [64:31]
A
That was bad. It was a bad show.
- [64:33]
B
I did hear that, which is why I haven't watched it. But it's.
- [64:35]
A
It's.
- [64:35]
B
It's.
- [64:36]
A
But that. Oh, no. Read the Perfect Couple. I think people are dying and getting.
- [64:40]
B
Wow. Okay. I'm.
- [64:42]
A
The book is so good, and the show was not. But the book was so good.
- [64:46]
B
Okay. I could. I could get into that. Yeah. You know, I'm not like smut only like, I. You know, I'm like a really weird freak that loves Alex, you know?
- [64:54]
A
So that's really read like James Patterson and that's Dean Coombs.
- [65:00]
B
No, I don't like that. I. I wouldn't go that far. That's like my least favorite Quality about myself that I'm, like, obsessed with James Patterson books. It's just like, it's a fatal flaw that I have because, like, yucky male authors. And then also.
- [65:11]
A
Who writes Alex Cross?
- [65:12]
B
James Patterson? Yeah. Since.
- [65:14]
A
Did you ever read the book that James Patterson wrote was Dolly Parton?
- [65:17]
B
No, I, I don't. I'm not interested in anything else James Patterson writes. I just got.
- [65:22]
A
Other than Alex Cross.
- [65:24]
B
I got hooked on this one series. This one, like, not series, book, not trilogy. What would you call them? Series.
- [65:30]
A
There's 35 books.
- [65:32]
B
There's like, 35. He's been writing them since 1991, before I was born. So, like, I, I. It's also really cool because you see the progression of stuff. Like in, in the 1991 books, they're talking about beepers and stuff, you know? And then I remember the first book I got to where they talked about, like, an ipod, and I was like, ooh, now he's talking about ipods and stuff. And I don't know, I just loved it. I got hooked. And then after you read 14, why not get to 35? You know, like. But they came out with a show, which forever ago, they came out with a movie. Sorry, I'm digressing from the Fast 5 topic, but, I mean, that's.
- [66:01]
A
That's textbook toast.
- [66:02]
B
Okay. They came out with the show, which I know that Alex Cross had a movie forever. Denzel Washington played Alex Cross. I still haven't ever watched it. My parents were like, oh, yeah, we remember when that came out in the early 2000s. Like, we watched. We watch it in the movie theaters. Still haven't watched that. But they come out with a show, and I was like, oh, here we go. Like, this is going to flop so hard, and they're not going to do it justice. And it's just going to. When I tell you I watched it last year during our honeymoon, it is the best show ever. It's on prime or Peacock, I don't know. There's two seasons out. It is so good. The actors are Alex Cross. It's, it's the, it's about his. It's about the, the serial killers and the books and everything. The actor that plays him, oh, my God, he's incredible. All the actors, I've never seen them before. Really, Any of them. Except for the one, like, white guy that's like a serial killer. The actors are incredible. They're all so hot. They're all so. Such good actors. I'm, like, shook to my core. All of it's Just beyond, beyond, beyond good. And they did it. Such justice cannot wait for the next season to come out. It comes out in June. I need to actually follow up on that, but I cannot recommend it enough. Even if you haven't read the books, it's an incredible series.
- [67:11]
A
Okay.
- [67:12]
B
Okay.
- [67:12]
A
Thanks for the wreck.
- [67:13]
B
You're welcome.
- [67:14]
A
I need to tell Olivia. She's into stuff like that.
- [67:16]
B
What can I say except you're welcome? Okay. So this. This show is going to be made from the book.
- [67:23]
A
Book five, the five star weekend, which I'm gonna read the book. I think this summer I'll have a little bit more time on my hands and I hope to read the show will be at Peacock as a series. Previously announced cast members will be Jennifer Gardner, Regina hall and Chloe Sevigny. And now Gemma Chan. And I feel like even though the other actors, like, are legit actors and so it's obviously a legit project, like, Gemma Chan is incredibly legit. And I like everything that she's in. I just like watching her.
- [67:49]
B
Yeah.
- [67:50]
A
So I think this bodes well.
- [67:52]
B
I think this is great too. And usually whenever I'm like, let's see. As soon as they start to throw some like, legit actors in there, I'm like, okay, it's probably going to be good. However, it wasn't the perfect Couple. Nicole Kidman.
- [68:03]
A
Yeah.
- [68:05]
B
Oh, wow.
- [68:06]
A
Lev.
- [68:07]
B
And it's just stunk up the house name.
- [68:11]
A
Stunk up the house.
- [68:13]
B
Well, was Nicole good in it or was it like a script thing or like an actor? Like, what was the. What was the badness about it? Because I didn't watch it.
- [68:20]
A
What? I can't remember.
- [68:22]
B
Cheesy.
- [68:23]
A
It was definitely like script and acting and setting was like. You could tell it's supposed to be set on Nantucket. You could tell they only really had access to film in this one house. And it wasn't antic. I think it was like Cape Cod. And like, it was just giving. Like there was no setting. It was just the same house, same view. Like, Right. I don't know. It was. I can't remember what exactly was not good, but it was just like not hitting and. Yeah. And then the detectives were like doing like serious community theater.
- [68:52]
B
Like, okay, well, let's hope they're the better. Betterment of this.
- [68:57]
A
But read the book. You'll love the book.
- [68:58]
B
Maybe they took notes from the Perfect couple and they're like, we can't do that again. Was. Sorry. Was the perfect couple the one that they had the dance where they were like, the dance at the End. And Nicole Kidman was like, I am not doing that.
- [69:14]
A
They played that song on Love island last night. That's a good song.
- [69:16]
B
Okay.
- [69:17]
A
Shouts out Meghan Trainor.
- [69:19]
B
Meghan Trainor. She does always have a hit coming up out of her sleeve.
- [69:23]
A
Yeah, she does. Are you watching Love Island?
- [69:25]
B
I'm not. I've never watched a single episode of Love Island. The only thing that I did get into via Love island was the Molly Mae and Tommy Fury of it all. And it was because of you and Liz Woods. Liz woods posted when they broke up.
- [69:38]
A
We're sisters in Molly Madam.
- [69:40]
B
Yeah, I mean, I. Liz, what's it such a good follow if you guys don't follow her? She. She's incredible. But I was. She had posted something when they broke up. Like love is dead, but like in a like really serious way. Like not in like a Love is dead. Like, she was like seriously very upset and you were too. And I. I was like, okay. I was. And I think it's one thing about Liz is she really does pull things out of my brain. Like the next slide was like, if you just watch that and rolled your eyes that love is dead. Like, might I suggest you watch this four minute clip of them and like, it will change your mind. I was like, okay, well, I literally did just think that, so I'll watch this. And I was. I remember where I was. I was in an airport and I was watching it and I started crying because, like, I can't remember I was pregnant or not. I started crying last summer. Okay. Then I wasn't even pregnant. And I started crying because I was just so moved by their, like, relationship and how they met and like how they stayed together. And all this stuff on it was all these clips from Love Island. Like when she walks back in and she's like, no, no.
- [70:35]
A
Because she thought Ellie belly was off the bed. Because he thought. She thought. He made room for some thought.
- [70:40]
B
Yeah, yeah. And she's like, no. And he's like, it's always been you. And I was like, oh my God. I'm like getting really emotional and I got it. Like, I understood it. So then I watched the documentary and I started looking into it more and I feel like I fell in love with it, but I'm also very aware that. And you guys spoke with this yesterday with Jared. That's like a peak season, right? So. But I loved all the clips and all the stuff that we got from last season. Love Island. Now you're sending three home. Like, I like, I loved that. That is that the Last year's Love Island.
- [71:09]
A
I. I don't know. That sounds.
- [71:11]
B
You don't.
- [71:12]
A
It's.
- [71:13]
B
I mean, I guess it's really on Tick tock. Who is the main girl with the dark hair that everyone loved from Leah. Leah, yeah. She's like making fun of Kendall, the guy.
- [71:23]
A
Okay.
- [71:23]
B
Who was like doing like shady stuff to her. The good looking guy that was like the main character that they were dating at first.
- [71:29]
A
A Cordell.
- [71:30]
B
No. You watched Love Island. You should know this, right?
- [71:32]
A
Not last season.
- [71:33]
B
Oh, you didn't watch last season.
- [71:35]
A
That's like. Yeah. The one season I don't watch is like a mega global success.
- [71:38]
B
Yes.
- [71:39]
A
Spin off show.
- [71:40]
B
Yes, yes. The main guy. These people are the good looking guys.
- [71:43]
A
If I know there's someone named Kaylor.
- [71:45]
B
Kaylor, right, Kaylor and the two blondes, they're like best friends and stuff. But the guy that has the snake tattoo who was like the main like boy on the show, but he is really good looking. She, Leah was like so iconic. Always making fun of him. She was like mocking him. She's like, like, oh, now you send it three home and like it just became this viral sound because it was just like so iconic. So when I see seasons like that and clips like that, I'm like, I should watch Love Island. But it's much like you and Jared. It's every day. And Margo said, who has the time?
- [72:11]
A
No, who has the time? I was watching last night and I really realized, like, it's much more passive viewing. Like they pretty much put a camera on them, show their conversations throughout the day. Every, like other day is a challenge and then every other day and new bombshells come and every other day is an elimination. So it's just like, like, you know, you watch five episodes for 10 minutes of like something big happening. But like that big thing usually is so big that like it justifies all the time that you just spend. So I'm all caught up, actually. I have been like getting into a cadence of watching it and it's like still not good. But like I'm like entertained and I'm starting to have like some faves and.
- [72:49]
B
Okay.
- [72:50]
A
And some non faves.
- [72:51]
B
Let me know whenever I should. Like, if you're like, you need to watch this. And then I. I love a binge. Like I can sit around and binge.
- [72:59]
A
Yeah.
- [73:00]
B
What was your pregnancy comfort show when I was pregnant? Yeah, like, what was yours like? Claudia had an inversion to Gilmore Girls. What was your like, comfort show When.
- [73:08]
A
I was pregnant with Harry, I watched a lot like, that's when I watched Downton. I watched. This was more in my pregnancy. But, yeah, I watched Bridger. Like, Bridgerton got me into Downton Abbey, and then like, Poldark tried to watch Outlander, but I was very much like, in Historical.
- [73:23]
B
I need you. I heard the toast the other day. I need you to give Outlander another chance. I'm an Outlander, Stan. Like, to the point that I could, like. I won't. I won't. I will not born bore the crowd. You have got to watch Outlander again.
- [73:33]
A
I watched so much of it.
- [73:34]
B
How much?
- [73:35]
A
I was in season two.
- [73:38]
B
Really, so.
- [73:38]
A
And I. Yeah, like, and I. I didn't, like, hate it, but I just, like, didn't love it enough to keep.
- [73:44]
B
Was it getting too whimsical for you?
- [73:47]
A
No. I forget what my issue was with it, but I just. It never, like, gripped me.
- [73:51]
B
That's shocking to me. You are of the elk to love Outlander. It's historical. It's. It's sexy, it's fun. It's great. Acting like I'm shocked.
- [74:00]
A
Yeah. And then when I was pregnant with Charlie, I. I don't get to watch a ton of TV when I'm pregnant because, like, I'm still, like, doing a lot.
- [74:06]
B
Right.
- [74:06]
A
I have more. So have, like, postpartum shows because then I'm, like, sat up in bed with a baby.
- [74:10]
B
That's what I meant, I guess.
- [74:11]
A
Yeah. We're watching the telly.
- [74:14]
B
The telly. What was it with Char?
- [74:17]
A
Well, with Harry, it was Ladies of London.
- [74:19]
B
Nice.
- [74:19]
A
You know, that's my favorite. Have you ever watched it?
- [74:21]
B
No. But you've got me wanting to.
- [74:22]
A
Like, you should, because it'll make you, like, even more excited to be married to a British person.
- [74:26]
B
And now I understand stuff. Even when I hear new songs and new shows or. Sorry. Things I'd heard previously, I'm like, oh, now I know what they're talking about. Like. Like even Taylor Swift being like Oxford street and all this. I'm like, oh, yeah, now I know what she's talking about.
- [74:37]
A
Yeah. And then for Charlie was Love Island Season 5, UK. Maybe that's what you should do. Molly and Tommy season.
- [74:43]
B
Maybe I should.
- [74:44]
A
It was so good.
- [74:45]
B
Oh, that's great. I've been watching Suits non stop. Like, I'm like, really getting through it. And it's. It's one of those shows where, like, I could watch it, I couldn't watch it. I'm not what happens next, but it's just there for me.
- [74:57]
A
It's comfort.
- [74:58]
B
Yeah.
- [74:58]
A
It's Just comfort.
- [74:59]
B
It's there for me. And there's nine, like, seasons to crunch my way through, so it's a meaty one, you know, Like, I. I'm. I'm on season five, and I. I've got plenty left to go.
- [75:11]
A
Well, I love that. Well, speaking of someone who's been there for me, Shannon, thank you for being here for me today. Thank you for being here for the toasters. Where can everyone follow you and get more Shannon all the time?
- [75:20]
B
More Shannon coming to you. Hi. That on Instagram at Probably Shannon on Tick Tock at Probably Shannon. And I will have my comedy special coming out soon, and I'm not sure where you can find that yet. Most likely YouTube, possibly Patreon, but it'll be. It'll be really funny, I swear.
- [75:38]
A
Your special is so good, your comedy set, that I came to see you in Florida. You were amazing. Like, seriously, I always sing so highly of you. I probably would like anything that you do, but I was blown away by you. It was amazing. Like, seriously, like, your Persona on stage is just, like, crushed it.
- [75:58]
B
That means so much to me. For you to think I'm funny is like, the highest of all compliments. So thank you.
- [76:03]
A
Like, I. I always think you're funny and nothing you could do, not anything that. But being, like, stand up funny is just a whole nother level. And I've never seen you in that sphere, so I didn't know what to expect. And you, like, completely blew me away. So I'm so excited for anyone who didn't get a chance to see you in person to see your show. And of course, you have your podcast, Probably a podcast. So if you want to hear more Shannon on the mic.
- [76:24]
B
Shanny on the mic. Probably podcast, I took my mic flag off because this is the toast today. But probably podcast, my mic flag is.
- [76:31]
A
Off because I left them at the studio.
- [76:33]
B
Claudia's gonna be pissed.
- [76:35]
A
Well, now if it. Because we're not, like, twinning, right? Like, not a big deal.
- [76:39]
B
Yeah, true. Okay.
- [76:40]
A
But in case you were confused, this is the toast.
- [76:42]
B
This is the toast. And you can find me every Tuesday at Probably podcast, except for when I'm on my maternity leave.
- [76:49]
A
Well, thank you so much for being here. We love you dearly and we love ya. Bye.
- [76:55]
B
Bye.
