[B]

We're helping.

[A]

Welcome back to the Toast, everyone. Hope everybody's having a pargy Gargy. Oh, I'm having a Gargy pargy Wednesday. You want to know why?

[B]

Because you're wearing a Gargy Pargi set. A Gargi pargie lowercase. Gargy Pargi uppercase set.

[A]

I'm wearing our new Gargie Parji set. I'm wearing an extra large, and I didn't wear a jacket today, so I'm walking to work and the back of this sweatshirt just says in huge letters like gargie party. And I'm walking to work and it was like a quiet block, you know? And I hear someone scream. And before she even said it, I like, knew that it was a scream directed towards me. She goes, gargie party. And I turned around. It was just like a toaster in the wild. I don't know if she thought I was a toaster in the wild. Not the toaster in the wild, but it was a great moment for women.

[B]

The head of toast relations.

[A]

Correct.

[B]

That's very exciting. I am wearing our aforementioned rugby polo long sleeve shirt. It is this baby blue. It's got the GSU on the breast. Because I am a graduate of Girly swirly University. I am highly educated. I'm a highly educated individual and I think that that shows. And so I wear this shirt with pride and With a lot of drama.

[A]

Surrounding the collegiate system right now, it's really important that we support universities that protect all students. And GSU is an accredited university where all are welcome.

[B]

It's very true and a place that you can be proud to be an alum of. I think a lot of alumni these days are feeling really ashamed shame of where they spent four years and spent all their money.

[A]

So true.

[B]

And not GSU alums. They're prouder than ever.

[A]

Never. So Toast Merch if you're looking for like everything that you will be able to buy, we just posted on our Instagram at the Toast all the pieces, their sweatshirts, sweatpants, T shirts, mugs, hats, tote bags. Everybody's talking about the tote bag.

[B]

Tote bags are insane. We actually made them almost a year ago but they just like didn't make it into a drop for some reason. I have been using those tote bags for a year. I take them grocery shopping. I take them everywhere. I use them as diaper bags. Like you need a girly tote bag. You need it.

[A]

So true.

[B]

If you get nothing else like but get other stuff, you need a girly tote bag.

[A]

Everything launches tomorrow at 10am Eastern time on shop toast merch.com just a reminder that the way we're doing merch these days is a little bit different because we took your feedback. So thank Things will ship in one to two weeks but that does mean that there are limited stock. Now we did order a ton and I think we did a good job. Some things might sell out, but if you're looking for like certain sizes or specific items, I would suggest getting on at 10:00am Eastern time exact perhaps setting an alarm. And if something does sell out, we are going to be opening it up.

[B]

To pre order mention that yesterday.

[A]

So if something that you wanted sells out or the size you weren't able to get, you can pre order it. But just know like it will take minimum six weeks to ship. So we're doing our best to get everybody everything they need whilst also you know, keeping the shipping times down.

[B]

Yeah. So that's very exciting. We'll see you tomorrow. How was your April Fool's? Did you survive? Did you get pranked?

[A]

Let me tell you, I didn't get got once and I'm like I was so on it.

[B]

Maybe because I feel like so many people announced stuff yesterday, like real stuff. What is. And by the way, we did that too. We announced our merch.

[A]

No, that was a confusing part of the day. And as a business owner like it is annoying that, like, this day becomes sort of like, funky because you do also, like, need to do regular business on this day. You know Lauren Bostic.

[B]

Well, yeah, I saw she launched toilet paper and I was like, that's fudgeing brilliant. And Claudia was like, It's April 4th.

[A]

It's a prank.

[B]

I'm like, I don't think it is. It's in Women's Wear Daily. Like, I think it's real. And.

[A]

And they had to put it in the caption. Be like, no, this isn't a prank.

[B]

Turned out to be real. But it's like, is there a strategy behind doing a night before? Do you get like, more engagement? Because people are sure you might, but.

[A]

I don't know if that's like, helping with your conversions. I would love to ask Lauren how the launch went. Like, it's actually so annoying. And I was thinking the same when. Because we had these big plans for April Fools with Spritz. We were doing like a fake Manischewitz collab that may or not actually be happening.

[B]

And then.

[A]

But then I also had to launch the merch and I'm like, people are gonna think like, these are back to back pranks, but what's funny about merch? But I just hate that we had to caveat being like, not a prank. Real merch. Shop chanel.com.

[B]

Like, well, shop Chanel is the prank.

[A]

Like, it's just annoying. I am getting over, like, social media April Fools, like, for a while. I had a lot of fun for a lot of years. Nobody blew me away this year, like, and thankfully I didn't see anybody faking any pregnancy announcements, which I was grateful.

[B]

For because, you know, that's a one.

[A]

Way ticket to cancellation. Bill.

[B]

No. Someone who faked a pregnancy announcement but crushed it is Amy Schumer because she took a secret video of her telling her husband she's pregnant. Just like, you don't have a uterus.

[A]

Oh, okay, that's funny. I'll allow it.

[B]

That's funny. I actually, I feel like there were so many less pranks this year, which was nice. And there was one really good one that I saw and it was the sort of thing I was like, wait, now I want that. And it was Dyson. The eyebrow, the dye brow. The Dyson, yeah, they brow.

[A]

They made like a basically a Dyson air wrap, like for your hair, but it's like the size of your finger and it's for your eyebrows to like blow out your eyebrows. Let me tell you, people would buy that. I didn't Think it was so crazy.

[B]

I didn't think. And what's going to be annoying is, like, especially on Instagram, in Feedback Weed. You know, we're gonna get April Fool's prank in a few weeks, and you just have to check the date on everything.

[A]

Yeah, I. I felt really proud. Like, some years I really get got even in my personal life. As you guys know, Jackie's friend Dana from the Redheads is like, this is her Christmas. Like, it's her Super Bowl. She wakes up at 5am she probably plans some weeks in advance. She. She did not get me. She did not.

[B]

She got me so good that I still have to, like, remember that it wasn't true. But basically I woke up with, like, so many texts. And one was from the Redheads. We're planning our next episode. A screenshot from the author that we're reading this month. And the author had written on his Instagram story, like, hey, just found out that the redheads are reading whatever his new book is called for their next episode. They're always so hilarious, insightful. Like, give it a listen. And then it was like a book emoji and a worm. And I just felt like, oh, my God, like, that's so cool that would happen.

[A]

You didn't go like, double check.

[B]

I went on with my day, and then I realized it was April Fools. And I was like, damn. I wonder why I haven't heard from Dana yet. She always gets me early in the morning. And then later she said it was April 4th. I was like, oh, okay. I. That was really ingrained in my mind.

[A]

The key to Dana's success is she gets you so early. It's like the first thing you see in the morning. But I think her prank for me not to criticize because she's really good at it. Her prank for me this year was so stupid.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

That, like, she could have caught me in the middle of the night and I wouldn't have believed it. She was like, oh, my God, did you see? Elise Myers is back on Tick Tock. She's launching an only fans. And, like, that would just never happen.

[B]

Like, it's just Elise Myers is, like, your guys's favorite.

[A]

Well, me and Dana are, like, always talking about Elise Myers, like, her whole saga on TikTok. And then she disappeared and she hasn't been seen in like a year. So I guess it was like, she's back, but also she's becoming an only fans. Like, that so would never happen. It was just. Listen, I don't want to criticize. I know she's busy. You know, she became a mother this year. She can't do everything. My prank wasn't good. Sorry.

[B]

Maybe you'll get a new one.

[A]

And the way that she wrote it, too, she was like, run, don't walk to TikTok. Who. Who talks like that?

[B]

Certainly not her.

[A]

Correct.

[B]

Yeah. Well, good job, Dana. Another year we survived April Fools. Yeah, but it's not a joke how cute Bruno is. I'll tell you that much.

[A]

Speaking of Dana, are you in the March Madness bracket? Did you do it?

[B]

No, I didn't do it.

[A]

Why?

[B]

Because if you send me a text message, I'm not going to answer, let alone fill out a bracket. Like, it's bad timing.

[A]

So I did it because, like, last year, Dana forced me. It was the first year I did it and I lowkey came in, like, second place. I almost won. I had just, like, made up, so I thought I had the knack for the bra.

[B]

You had the elk of bracket.

[A]

I had the knack for the bra. That's good. So this year I just kind of. I let, like, my, you know, vibes take me. I was just, like, clicking on logos and things that I'm literally in, like, 96th place. I read it like, there's no way.

[B]

I can win her league.

[A]

Let me tell you. I didn't check. I think there were some games last night, so I should check. Maybe something crazy happened.

[B]

Thanked you by saying you're in first place. Didn't you do that?

[A]

That would have been a good no. But I was in first place for a while last year and I ended up coming in second. Okay. I am in 43rd place. Okay. But I got 40 out of 63 picks. Correct. Like, I think that's pretty good.

[B]

No, he's in first place.

[A]

Someone named Elizabeth.

[B]

Do they have a last name?

[A]

No. Everybody just put their first name.

[B]

Busy. It might be.

[A]

Oh, you know her?

[B]

Yeah, yeah, she went to college with us.

[A]

Dana's in third.

[B]

Wow. She's definitely cheating. Who's in second?

[A]

Mark? Margo Ashray. I think this is Margo. She's in 22nd place.

[B]

Who's in second place?

[A]

Someone named Neil. Like, do you know who that is?

[B]

Neil? No.

[A]

Jackie. There's six. There's like, how many people are in here? There's 50 people in here.

[B]

Maybe that's like her dad.

[A]

Oh, and my.

[B]

I guess my name's not Neil.

[A]

My team like that I chose lost Alabama.

[B]

Them, like, you should have voted for Auburn.

[A]

Could have, would have, shoulda.

[B]

Because the head coach is a Jew and A proud.

[A]

I love him. I love. I love him. If I had known, I obviously would.

[B]

Have liked my face all the way Hashem is with that team.

[A]

I would have let. Let my faith lead me. But I didn't know that Brian Pearlman.

[B]

Or whatever his name is, he's such a king. I need to kind of for Queenie.

[A]

Kind of hot now.

[B]

Of course. And like, he's just such a rock star.

[A]

Righteousness makes you good looking.

[B]

Of course. Your insides influence the way that you look on the outside.

[A]

So not crushing my bracket this year, which is disappointing, although not shocking. I guess it was more shocking last year that I almost won.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

And it's a big pot because she gets so many people and you only have to pay like 20, 25 bucks.

[B]

So how much?

[A]

I think last year was like a thousand dollars.

[B]

Who won last year?

[A]

I don't know. All I know is that it wasn't me.

[B]

I just feel like it was Emily. Don't you feel like that?

[A]

Emily Halperin, like, perhaps. But everybody just puts in their first name. Like, I don't know who any of these people are.

[B]

Got it. Well, that's Dana's network. Her network.

[A]

Right. She has like work, camp, home, college. Yeah.

[B]

Other job that you.

[A]

Right.

[B]

She stays friends with everyone.

[A]

Like, that could not be less me if I tried. I know, but actually that's very Ben too.

[B]

If he did a bracket, how many people you think he could get?

[A]

Oh, Ben would never do a bracket. It requires like so much organization. That's not his strong suit. I just mean that, like, Ben will be like, oh, have a coffee meeting early in the morning.

[B]

My middle school friend.

[A]

No, like, literally from my internship 11 years ago. I'm like, I. It's the opposite. I have like my six friends and I've known them forever. Every now and then I pick up Straggler. You know, Shannon, she's a newer one, but no, Ben literally keeps in contact with everyone. It's a great skill. It is.

[B]

It's a good thing.

[A]

It is.

[B]

It just ain't me.

[A]

That ain't me. Okay, I know everyone's like, sick and tired of hearing me talk about this, even though I like Loki. Haven't talked about it that much, but I'm kind of like, waiting for my baby to flip. Like, not to make everything about me.

[B]

I feel like you haven't shared this on the show.

[A]

Oh, have I not? Okay. So, like, my baby's like, not like, laying the right way and I really need him to flip. Like, it's. It's Time. You know, they say, like, this is the. And every time I go. I really thought last time he had flipped, like, the. The kicks had changed. They said, like, you feel it more up by your ribs. Like, you'll know.

[B]

Where do you feel them right now?

[A]

Above the. Like, you know. Oh, I know. Oh, but I had such a terrible night's sleep last night, and the baby was kicking, like, really weird. I feel like he was swirling around, like, maybe not flipping, but, like, maybe, you know, doing practice flips. Like, I think I really need to put out positive. And Dr. Fox is, like, most people's baby flip, like, in the next couple of weeks. Like, you're. I'm still on track. I just have a bad feeling, like, that he's not gonna flip. And I really want to push. Like, that's the whole point. Like, that's so classic. Like, I want to be in a movie, like, and, like, screaming at Ben. Like, I want that. Like, that's the whole point. That's why I did this.

[B]

To scream at Ben in a. In a. To. In a tenner you've never reached.

[A]

Correct. And, like, do I need another excuse to hate my stomach? Like, to have a big scar on it now? Like, please, I can't take that on. I can't.

[B]

Well, definitely put out, like, positive. I know that's, like, so corny, but definitely, like, positive manifestations. And then also, there are things that people do.

[A]

Like, okay, Dr. Fox said absolutely none of them are medically proven.

[B]

But, yes, people say, and I'm not medically proven. And, like, I. It's not the sort of thing Dr. Fox is going to endorse, because it's.

[A]

Like, Lauren Bostick said that Reiki, like, a sound bath flipped her baby. And then I was telling that to Dr. Fox, and he was like, well, her baby was probably going to flip.

[B]

Right. Right. But you should do it anyway.

[A]

But the further along we go, even though space in my belly for baby to flip, like, we gotta go.

[B]

Jax Taylor ruined Reiki.

[A]

Totally. This is such Ben Softer behavior of the baby, though. Like, because if I. If the baby was taking after me, like, we would have flipped weeks ago. Yeah, we would be ready to go. Bags of packed. We're ready to go. No, this is so Ben softer waiting till last minute and, like, maybe. Maybe not making the flight.

[B]

I do think you should, like, look into some of the Eastern things. It doesn't hurt. It's just. Could be a waste of time. But you have time.

[A]

My friend Rachel recommended acupuncture, and I actually thought that Was a good suggestion.

[B]

I've been seeing a lot of positive things about acupuncture. Have you?

[A]

You know, Brian Kelly has this crazy story. You know, for years and years and years, Brian Kelly was like a pack a day smoker. I don't know if you know that about him. Yes, I know, but way before I knew him, like, in his 20s and early 30s. And sorry for putting him on blast, but I think he said this before publicly. I. I'm pretty sure. And he wanted to quit really badly. He didn't know how. And he literally did one acupuncture session and never smoked a cigarette ever again.

[B]

Wow. I. Yeah, I just saw a reel about acupuncture and what the. What they were saying it can do. It's like magic now.

[A]

It failed. My boy Theo, we did do canine acupuncture, but again, I think acupuncture was no match for, like, stage four cancer.

[B]

That is metastasized curing cancer.

[A]

No, but something like this. You know what? I'm open. And I think there are fertility, like, acupuncture specialists who, like, do these types of things.

[B]

Yeah. I think you should reach out to your Woo Woo friends. Ben, Lauren.

[A]

Yeah, I should ask her if she knows a good acupuncturist in nyc. Trusted area. For sure.

[B]

So, yeah, let us know how that goes. You're taking just me east.

[A]

Send me flippy energy, you know.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

But sometimes a baby doesn't flip because, like, and I was. My physical therapist was telling me this. Her baby didn't flip. And, like, she, you know, was the physical therapy queen. She wanted to push too. Turns out she had a very short umbilical cord. So had she delivered vaginally, like, it would have been, like, it would have been an issue. It would have been like bungeeing the baby.

[B]

Sometimes it's the part you have to trust the process.

[A]

Right. So she gave a C section. Did a C section. And it turns out that was kind of like her only option and the best option. So I'm just trying to lead with God, lead with grace. But, like, flip. Do a flip.

[B]

You should watch gymnastics.

[A]

What if I did a somersault? Like, would that help or hurt?

[B]

I. It would definitely hurt. Like, I don't think that would help anything.

[A]

What if I hung upside down from, like, the monkey bars?

[B]

Well, then. And I just don't think that's what a pregnant woman should do.

[A]

No, of course not. But does the baby experience gravity? Would, like, would it. Would it trip him out? So he would.

[B]

Then I think the womb Is like an anti gravity chamber.

[A]

Yeah, they do. Did you see that? The astronauts who were stuck in space, who are now coming back home, they obviously are on a press tour and everybody's asking, like, what did you want to eat first? What did you miss the most? Food and drink wise? They gave like, such bland answers. I was kind of disappointed. One of them was like, a latte.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

Yeah, I thought that was such a bad answer. Wait, the other guy said chicken salad.

[B]

Okay. They don't have that canned up there for you.

[A]

And then the third guy who gave like a normal answer said, fresh bread.

[B]

I just feel like those astronauts, like, aren't being real, you know?

[A]

Oh, my God, it's a conspiracy.

[B]

No, no, no, not a conspiracy. Like, I just feel like maybe they're just such professionals and also like the elk of an astronaut is someone who remains calm, not a drama queen whatsoever.

[A]

No, I need them to start stuff.

[B]

But no, no, like, get mad. Get mad, bro. And I actually saw one video that I felt like was the realest moment where this one astronaut was saying how he tuned into his church service every Sunday to like, because he needed God. And so he felt really connected. Like, he just became very spiritual.

[A]

That's nice.

[B]

That's real. That's like, yeah, outer space. Like, where's the struggle?

[A]

Yeah. No, you're so right. They're being too cool, calm and collected.

[B]

However, that is what it takes to be an astronaut. Like, you have to truly be that.

[A]

Of course, these are extenuating circumstances, though.

[B]

No, I know, but astronauts are always going to have extenuating circumstances. Like, they seriously chose the coolest of cucumbers to be astronauts. And now they're, they're showing us why they were chosen. But I don't know, like, I'm just going to need some more emotion from them.

[A]

They went to something really emotional, of course.

[B]

So get mad.

[A]

Chicken salad. You believe that shit?

[B]

No. That's really, really crazy. What was the other one? That was weirder.

[A]

Fresh bread and a latte.

[B]

A latte? They don't have espresso machine up there.

[A]

The lady said latte. No, you know, they have like instant coffee or like, you know, crap like you like military food. Whether that's like dehydrated. Yeah.

[B]

Yeah. And it's like Spam.

[A]

Yeah. It comes in like a cardboard sleeve. Yeah. So I guess I'm not gonna become an astronaut for a multitude of reasons, but I don't think I'm physically fit enough.

[B]

Way too dramatic.

[A]

It's way too dramatic.

[B]

Very calm.

[A]

And you also need to, like, live a minimal lifestyle, like, you need to be okay with less, like, material items. You don't take anything. You also need to be, I think, like, okay with being bored, which is one of my least favorite feelings.

[B]

Well, you could bring games.

[A]

Yeah, but who am I going to space with? Because if I'm going to space with you, like, you're not going to play with me. I think I'm playing a lot of solitaire.

[B]

I think I get bored enough to play.

[A]

Oh, that's good. So maybe if I want a chance to, like, get you to play Monopoly with me, I just have to take you to space for sure.

[B]

But I played a gym with you at Yard House and I whooped your ass.

[A]

Jackie did play cards with me at Yard House. And that's why I love Yard House. It kind of brings out the best in people.

[B]

Yeah. And we played four person gin, so that's kind of hard.

[A]

It was extra competitive with one deck.

[B]

And I whooped your tushies.

[A]

I don't know if I would say whoop. It was like a pretty long game. And by the end, like, somebody needed to end and it just happened to be you. Honestly, like, I'm not.

[B]

I had strategies. She did irons in the fire.

[A]

She didn't like. That's the thing. Not to be like a sore loser. Because I can respect that, like, you won't. But it wasn't this, like, great feat.

[B]

Okay, so I won't tell you my strategies then for how to win at gym.

[A]

That's okay. I don't need them. I don't think. I don't think that I do. Honestly.

[B]

You don't need them when you're not playing against me.

[A]

Okay. Bitch. We have a great show today. Did you watch Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Part 1?

[B]

So good.

[A]

It was. I don't feel like this season was the elk of a three part reunion. Having said that, part one didn't disappoint as much as I thought it would, given the fact that part one is usually the most boring.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

And it does sort of set the scene as to why Garcelle left. You thought she was being dramatic? Like, no, she's definitely on an island by her herself. And having to finally come to, like, answer for a lot of the things that she said over the years that, like, are a little up. But, like, I guess up until this point, we hadn't really, like, discussed them.

[B]

Yeah. And she just thinks she's, like, being, like, funny and the people and I think, like, probably the producers around her, like, Hype her up. And people are like, oh, my God, Garcelle, you slay. And then, like, yeah. Then people are like, hey, that was really nasty. And then it wouldn't everyone. And what are you gonna say? Like, yep, there's nothing. So I think she just got, like, a little too hyped up on herself.

[A]

We'll recap it in the TV recap. But she definitely also put way too many of her eggs in Sutton's basket. Like, she. It's kind of like a rookie mistake to just tether yourself to one person and have no friendships outside of that, because you really can't film if you. If that one relationship then becomes a little weathered, which it seems to be becoming.

[B]

Like, you don't really have that much going on. It was, like, really harsh when Erica said, like, I want you to be more interesting.

[A]

She's like, it's not that you're not sharing stuff. It's that you have nothing to share.

[B]

Yeah. And in which case, like, sometimes, like, it's a season for reality tv, and it's not. And. And. And her work, she doesn't have a lot to share in her personal life because she's working so much.

[A]

Right.

[B]

So it's not like she doesn't have work.

[A]

Yeah. So we'll get into that. How are the stories?

[B]

The stories are rbg.

[A]

I like random but good.

[B]

I like some of them.

[A]

You like it? You. You will love it.

[B]

I like it a lot.

[A]

Can I tell you who does not stop saying you. You will love it?

[B]

Ben.

[A]

Ben. He loves it.

[B]

Who else do you talk to that would know that?

[A]

Oh, my God. I had, like, a real. Sorry, we're gonna get to the stories, but just one second. So Ben's birthday is tomorrow. I made a pargy dinner reservation, like, weeks ago. I'm really proud. Like, I got this great reservation. It's fabulous new place. We're going away to, like, a little spa retreat this weekend. And then he was like, by the way, I got this great tea time at this, like, fancy golf course on Thursday. So, like, we're gonna golf on Thursday. And, like, we. Not me, obviously, the way I was so hurt. Like, I. I've built up in my mind, like, Ben is my prisoner, but in my mind, like, he wants to be there. You know what I mean? Like, he. He would. There's nowhere else he would rather be. And the fact that it's his birthday and, like, he could do whatever he wants, and of course, I can't say anything. Like, he's choosing not to spend it with me, it just kind of. It was this break in my belief that like my prisoner is also my friend. Do you know what I mean?

[B]

Well, would you want to go golf with him?

[A]

He did then say, like, you could call me right in the car. Like, please kill me. Like, do you uncomfortable.

[B]

That car is on Thursday.

[A]

Yeah. Lay in bed and watch tv. We have so much fun when we do that.

[B]

It's not that he's choosing other people over you. It's that he's choosing golf over laying in bed.

[A]

He's choosing life.

[B]

Yeah, he's. Yeah.

[A]

It just hurt my. I didn't expect it to hurt my feelings so much, honestly.

[B]

Well, I'm sorry.

[A]

That's okay. I guess I'll just have all day to get ready for my big date while she comes back. Can we just order it? I'm kind of tired. No way. I made this reservation weeks ago. Yeah, we're going and we're gonna like it.

[B]

Our first story, some exciting baby and podcasting news. And no, it's not about you. Oh, but Jason Kelsey showed his newborn daughter Finley on the New Heights podcast. And this was actually hysterical because Kylie Kelsey gave birth a few days ago and Jason and Travis were recording New Heights and the baby makes an appearance. And so Travis virtually met Jason and Kylie's newborn daughter while recording Wednesday's New Heights episode. Jason Said, we just had a baby. Do you want to see your new niece? And they literally put the baby in the frame and the headphones on the baby.

[A]

That's really funny.

[B]

Travis is like, hey, little muffin. He said, look at you just hanging out with mom. He asked if she was still nameless because they couldn't settle on a name.

[A]

Right.

[B]

Kylie replied, we had to fill out birth certificate paper work. You could technically leave without it, but we wouldn't remember to fill out the paperwork. Agreed. Like, you're not doing work after you get home. So she said that her husband, Deadass, refused to let her name the baby Finn, which has instead become her nickname. And her birth certificate name is Finley. And they're just. He's chatting with the baby. He said, are you happy to be out, Lo?

[A]

It's a good question. Probably not.

[B]

And probably not. And Jason said, how was Kylie's uterus? Asking the big questions.

[A]

How was Kylie's uterus? That's actually really funny.

[B]

It's actually so funny hysterical that they put the baby on the podcast in the headphones. And that's how Travis really met his new niece, because he had only seen one photo.

[A]

Now, why hasn't Travis met the niece? Travis is obviously not busy. He's not working. Like, go to Philadelphia. Meet your niece.

[B]

Yeah, well, I think it's just a few days, you know? Like, he doesn't have to be the first one there. This is their fourth child. Like, I do do think people less, like, hyped up. And it's like, we'll meet her when we meet her. Maybe he has plans to make his way, but him and Taylor have been. I don't know.

[A]

Was Travis in his usual setup? Like, did he appear to be home?

[B]

No, he appears to be in front of, like, an ornate barn door.

[A]

Oh, not an ornate barn door. Let me take a look at this.

[B]

Hey, yeah, go to page six. It's the first story. So then you can.

[A]

I'm just gonna go to their episode.

[B]

Oh, okay. That works too. But then you could see the pictures of Finley with the headphones, which is seriously the funny, funniest thing I've ever seen.

[A]

It actually is really funny. Okay. He hasn't been in his. Yeah. Oh, by the way, that's a perfect way to describe it. It's an ornate barn door.

[B]

Yeah. So I don't think that's his house. They had been spending time in the mountains, like, in Utah and Yellowstone, and so maybe they're still out west.

[A]

I'm also thinking of Taylor's real Estate portfolio. Like, where does this door fit in? She has this big estate in Nashville. You might have a door like that at your Nashville home.

[B]

You might. But they've been traveling. They're like enjoying life right now. I don't know if they went back home.

[A]

They could be at a rental for sure.

[B]

I'm feeling like it's a rental.

[A]

So interesting that he's still not home. That's really what I was wondering and gleaning from his. Because you can tell when he's home. He's in his studio just like you. He has an at home studio.

[B]

Yeah. They're very similar to us. They're extremely.

[A]

Now what does Taylor Swift get for like her boyfriend's new nephew? Niece? Excuse me.

[B]

I don't think Kylie would want an air maze blanket. I think she would literally hate that.

[A]

Yeah, she would want, like a baby breast. Like something really practical that like, will help her in the night.

[B]

But I don't see her like, hating a baby brezza, you know, I think she has really strong opinions.

[A]

So do you think she has a baby list?

[B]

Honestly, no, because she has everything for babies because she has three. So I think just like maybe like a. A cashmere sweater that says Finley or something. Like just a normal gift and then.

[A]

That'S a really good call.

[B]

But then also like baking for her, like bringing her. I think that's what Taylor could do. I think that's like the nicest thing.

[A]

You could do for someone is like nurture the mother. Yeah.

[B]

And so if they are going to Philadelphia to. No, like to. She'll come over and she'll cook. That would be like the best thing to do.

[A]

Yeah, that's like a huge underrated gift. Like, come over, do the dishes. What if you just unloaded the laundry?

[B]

Yeah. I wouldn't expect that from anyone other than like real family. But yeah, if someone wants to bring me over a pot of soup. That's amazing.

[A]

That is amazing. But like, make sure to clean the pot when you're done. Like, don't come give me jobs.

[B]

They'll come pick it up. Or bring a beef stew. For a nursing mother, like, that's actually the best gift you could give.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

A new mother.

[A]

Well, I feel like I've spoken that, like, a lot of my anxiety about being postpartum mostly has to do with the fact that my apartment will be messy because that's just like, not something I can handle. And so if you are a person in. In my life who's close to me who probably will be invited over Let this be your message. Like, please, first of all, don't bring stuff. Like, I don't need more crap in my house. Like, don't bring me a gift basket. Like, I'm never gonna get to it. Why don't you bring a broom and a mop and just put. Roll up your sleeves and get to work.

[B]

Or they could just, like, pay the day rate for your housekeeper.

[A]

Sure, sure, sure. That works too. But, like, you know, don't be afraid to roll your sleeves up and start putting things away. That's. That's what I want. Those list, those who are close to me listening to this episode, that's what I want them to walk away from this episode with.

[B]

Okay, I think that works.

[A]

And please don't bring stuff. That's actually something I'm, like, anxious about.

[B]

Register on baby list for a broom.

[A]

No, literally, it's going to be like Swiffer. You know, it's gonna be like, Swiffer products, Clorox. And I feel like people feel compelled to, like, come over. They're not empty handed. And I just want everyone in my life to know, like, please, please come over empty handed. Unless it's a sweet treat. Like, I don't need more crap. Like, more boxes and bags piling up in the foyer. I just, I don't even have a foyer. And I think it's a foyer.

[B]

I'll reserve my thoughts.

[A]

Do you think it's a foyer?

[B]

I think it's both. I think it's like, foyer is the real word, but we say foyer.

[A]

Got it. You know, foyer becomes just like a. A dumpster. What are your thoughts? What are you not saying? Nothing.

[B]

Nothing.

[A]

You think I'm gonna want stuff?

[B]

What?

[A]

Or you think nobody, you think, you think nobody's gonna want to come over because I'm being such a nightmare?

[B]

I think you're just overrating all of this and worrying about, like, an oh. I think you're just gonna be, like, in a peaceful state. And as long as, like, you're holding. As long as you're holding baby, like, who cares what's in the foyer?

[A]

Oh, me?

[B]

Like, no, I'm just saying you might change.

[A]

I might. I might. And honestly, I hope that I will. Having said that, like, and you're in.

[B]

Bed with baby, so, like, you don't even see the foyer.

[A]

I have been in some of the lowest and highest moments of my life, and, like, my foyer was still top of mind.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

I'm just like, you know, I hope you're right, though. I do.

[B]

Yeah. I hope so. Too.

[A]

But I don't actually. Don't wanna. I don't want to lose that part of myself.

[B]

No, no. It will always come back. But, like, in the immediate aftermath, like, I really hope that that just takes a back seat.

[A]

Well, I would hope that, like, everybody around me is, like, cleaning up so that I don't even have to wait. It's not.

[B]

It's a non issue for anything. I'm not even gonna give you the blanket that I was gonna get you because, like, you don't need it.

[A]

It's not a. Jackie, you are gonna give me the blanket. You are.

[B]

Why? If it ends up in the foyer.

[A]

It won't. I have a place for it on my rocker. I'm ready for it. You could send it now.

[B]

Don't get her anything. Let's give her what she wants. Let's give her what she wants.

[A]

Fine. Rubber gloves, toilet brushes. Like. Yeah, come on.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

I have space for that.

[B]

Okay. I think we should do it, guys. I know everybody who's getting gifts listens to the show. Like I'm telling you. Let's see.

[A]

Great. Please do not bring stuff, like, for all.

[B]

Okay, so mazel tov to the Kelsey's and to Finley. Welcome to the world.

[A]

That's a cute name to. It fits with, like, their vibes. Why? That's the only one I know.

[B]

There's one with an E like LC Elliot.

[A]

Oh, you're right. You're right.

[B]

Hold on. Now we just need to put it.

[A]

No, it's not Elsie. Kelsey.

[B]

I love that.

[A]

I do, too.

[B]

Okay. Wyatt. Elliot. But it's spelled, like, funny.

[A]

Yeah, they do. They do two T's, two T's and.

[B]

An E at the end.

[A]

Yeah. So a lot of thought when they were guessing this baby's name that it was going to have two T's. Now, the baby naming expert that I watched a video on said they didn't do the double T's, but they still did. Double consonant with fin and nilly.

[B]

I see. So why it. Elliot, Toti and Bennett. Cute. Really cute.

[A]

Cute.

[B]

And then Finley. So cute.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Mazzles.

[A]

Mazel.

[B]

Are you ready for the Next story?

[A]

It's 11:11. Make a wish.

[B]

I wish for part in this like this forever.

[A]

I wish for my baby to flip in his own time.

[B]

Our next story is Morgan Wallen cashing in on the SNL drama.

[A]

Oh, yeah.

[B]

Releasing God's country merch. So yesterday, Morgan Wallen dropped some new merch saying, get me to God's Country. It's a T shirt and two hats. It's actually quite pargy. This story has obviously become, like, so viral, and he's cashing in on it.

[A]

And a couple of. Well, actually, just one story about SNL came out yesterday that kind of answers some of the questions we were having about how there was a sketch that Joe Jonas was featured in. I don't know if you saw. They needed, like, a musician, and it was written for Morgan, and he. He had declined it. They didn't say that it was, like, a bad thing. He just didn't want to be in it, which is his right. You're there to perform music. You don't, like, have to do other stuff. Most people want to do it. He didn't. And that's why Joe Jonas took the gig. So I think that does indicate, like, a sign of just, you know, not being a team player, if you will.

[B]

I think a sign for me of, like, I'm here to do the two songs. Like, we're doing two songs. I don't need to, like, be a part of this.

[A]

Nothing more, nothing less.

[B]

And then when it's over, I'm walking out the door, and I am starting to feel like the God's country thing was more so, like, he didn't enjoy his time in New York City. Like, I don't feel like it was about SNL being godless heathens, but I do think the two things together have made it looked like, like, the walk off. Plus, Get Me out of Here makes it look like he's angry at snl. But I actually could see a world where it's just like, something that he posted because he missed home and he's been in this big city.

[A]

That's how you refer to the South.

[B]

Like, yeah. And not like that he's running away from snl, but, like, he spent a week in New York City, and if you don't love New York City, like, that's kind of a tough place to be.

[A]

I agree. Actually, I think that it's possible that we are looking far too deep into this. Although the walk off, like, was so shocking that. And. Oh, and somebody did then tag me. Thank you. The last time he did snl, what did he do during the credits? And he did exactly what he was supposed to do. Thank you. And giving everyone hugs, like, you know, playing the part so he knows it wasn't a lack of knowledge.

[B]

Yeah. And he didn't want to do that this time. So I think, like, the two things together make each thing seem bigger. But I could see a world where he had no idea that this plus, the walk off would equal, like, Morgan Wallen hates snl.

[A]

Agree. Do you think we will ever see him on SNL again? Because you would think no after the last time. But it. I. He did come back.

[B]

I feel like, yeah, they said he's fine with the network and I do.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

I don't. I think it's possible he didn't have an awful time. He just, like, doesn't want to be a part of it more than, like, doing the job.

[A]

And I don't think he thought get me to God's country was going to become, like, such a viral phrase. And I love, you know, taking the opportunity to make some coin. It's very disgraced queen of him.

[B]

Yeah. And it's really cute merch and like, yeah, get me to God's country.

[A]

This is God's country.

[B]

So the whole thing has just become really funny.

[A]

And did God's country as a, like, term for the south, did that exist before Blake Shelton's song?

[B]

I think so, but probably really popularized it. And now, of course, Morgan Mall should also do a cover of that song.

[A]

Did you see the swirly?

[B]

Because you know, Blake Shelton one is a cover. Just want to say, I don't think it is. Blake Johnson's, like, always low key, like.

[A]

Doing musty riverside Getting baptized in holy water and shine with the dogs running.

[B]

Such a crazy song.

[A]

It's a crazy song. Not me. Like, in New York City, like, at Shabbat dinner singing that song. I don't think he thought it would get that far.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Saved by the sound of, like, it's so crazy. On a mercy riverside like, literally me.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Is it a cover? No.

[B]

It's hard to find out, but it doesn't look like it.

[A]

Wait, I had one more thing.

[B]

Shelton had it in him.

[A]

Oh. You guys know, like, as a part of my transition to becoming a Gen Xer, I'm watching a lot of programming that Gen X would like, and that includes American Idol.

[B]

Did you see the girly voice when you were Gen Z?

[A]

Right. Oh, also, did you see Kelly Clarkson on Kylie Kelsey's podcast talking about how, like, she's talked a lot about how her foray into, like, Hollywood and the pop music scene after American Idol because it was so new, like, this competition show, there were a lot of people who were, like, look down on her and very derogatory because she came from one of these types of talent shows. And she was like, it was just so funny to see people like, who treated me like that then go on to. And she was like, judge The Voice. And now people are guessing, like, who she was talking about. I kind of feel like it was Christina Aguilera. I just feel like they were probably swirling at the same time.

[B]

Interesting.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Also be men.

[A]

It could. It could.

[B]

Like Adam Levine.

[A]

That was the second most popular comment. I guess he's just known to be a dick. So, like, he's such a voice judge. Yeah. When you see people judge the Voice.

[B]

But we can't remember them.

[A]

Correct. And some people haven't judged the Voice in years. Adam Levine. But he's eternally there.

[B]

Yeah. He's a voice judge.

[A]

So I don't know if you saw the girly on American Idol who went viral because she auditioned with Waiting all day for Sunday night. She literally sang the entire song in a prime time fight. Carrie loved. It was like, mouthing along with words. Everybody's cracking up. And she actually did, like, a very good. Musically, like, her voice was amazing.

[B]

I'm cracking up. So many people tagged me in an American vital video of this girl who's the next Carrie Underwood. And I didn't watch it. And now I know why they were tagging me.

[A]

It was a great tag.

[B]

That is so. Okay.

[A]

Do me a favor. Watch it later. You'll enjoy seeing Carrie. Like, they're all. And they all know it immediately. Maybe not Lionel. I think he was, like, a little confused. That's not his fault. Luke Bryan knew exactly what was going on and it was just hilarious and a great way to stand out.

[B]

That's hilarious.

[A]

Lots going on in the Gen X community. Join me.

[B]

That sounds really fun.

[A]

Yeah. We do have a lot of fun.

[B]

Being Gen X. Yeah.

[A]

We don't give a fudge. You know, I am a Latin Gen Xer. Deny my identity. Deny me. Yeah.

[B]

Are you ready for our next story?

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Which is actually a story I'm obsessed with. I don't know. Like, I have a really warm place in my heart for Kristin Cavallari and her dating life.

[A]

And you do you. And. And if it were for you, I would know none of it.

[B]

Claudia, this is the cutest story. Okay? And I just need you to listen because Kristen Cavallari has released a new podcast about her dating life. And she dropped the name of her secret, most recent fling. He's like, a former NHL player. And so she was named. Named. Hold on.

[A]

Look up a picture.

[B]

Nate Thompson.

[A]

I'm on my way.

[B]

Yeah. So she talked about how they, like, spent New Year's together, that they were, like, dating for a little bit, how it was, like, really good and so cute. Like kind of like short lived, which she had, like, only really good things to say. And then he went on his podcast, because he has a podcast too, and talked about her talking about him and actually the way they're talking about each other, like, they need to get married. It's so cute. So this is what he said. He said, it's okay, it's fine. I mean, I knew it was only a matter of time before things came public. That's her world. That's what she does. Her podcast, obviously, as you know, is pretty big and she talks about her relationships. So I knew it was probably going to come out eventually. He insisted he has nothing bad to say about Kristen, whom he described as a really, really good person and a great mom. He said it was fun, she's a cool person. We had a good time. Life is gonna life and it just didn't work out. He said they had a lot in common, given that they're both single parents to their respective children. He said, obviously we don't live in the same city, so that dynamic changed things. But he reiterated that they kind of hit it off but things didn't work out. He went on to echo what Kristen had said, which was that he went to Nashville a couple of times and saw her. I was with her for New Year's. We told each other a lot of things in a very short amount of time. And we were pretty open and honest about a lot of stuff. Though the two had a connection in the short time that they talked or hung out, he wouldn't have called her his girlfriend, he said he would, however, call her very genuine. He said, she hustles, she does her thing. So I've got a lot of respect for her and how she handles herself with everything she has to deal with. Being in the limelight now, I just.

[A]

Want to like, is he good?

[B]

Oh, he's retired, so it like, doesn't matter.

[A]

Okay. He played for the Boston Bruins, the New York Islanders, and the Anaheim. Now this is a novel. I don't know if you know that. There's like a very big genre of romance novels obsessed with hockey players. They are like, I think of all the sports, like, for some reason, romance novels have become fixated on hockey players. Even though I feel like hockey players are like, not the most famous. Like, I don't know what, why, like the romance community, but it's just kind of assumed that, like, if you're a hockey player, you're like really good at sex, honestly. Like, that's like the assumption. Something about the skates, like, you know.

[B]

You know how to glide.

[A]

I don't know what it is.

[B]

That's.

[A]

And I've actually, I've read one romance icebreaker. Really good. So I love that this is happening. IRL for Kristen Cavallari. Like, it seems like a novel.

[B]

Yeah, it does. He met her through Instagram. He DM'd her and then they talked a little bit. And his cousin, like, lives right by her, so they knew mutual people. And then all of a sudden, like, he's in Nashville visiting her and the whole time that they were like, dating, but not exclusive or anything. Like, nobody knew. But now she talks about relationships on her podcast and actually, like, respect her for like naming names, you know, and like, really.

[A]

But waiting till it's over too. Like, so enjoy your life giving real.

[B]

And then like, the fact that he was. That he's like, so cool within, like, understands that that's her job. Love has only nice things to say about her. Like, why didn't it work out?

[A]

Get back together, right person, wrong time move for her. And I feel like Kristen Cavallari has the most interesting, like, DM inbox.

[B]

Like, yeah, well, he was.

[A]

There are certain people who you would just love to go through their phones and she's one of them.

[B]

He said, like, grow. He watched a little bit of Laguna, the beach, like when it was on. He didn't watch the Hills. So he said he didn't know anything up to date, which is probably good, but that he definitely liked her on Laguna Beach. He said, I think every guy thinks Kristen Cavallari is hot for the most part. She's a very good looking girl.

[A]

No, I'm smitten. And the fact that they're like having these dueling conversations on these random podcasts, like, it's actually too much.

[B]

It's really cute. And it's like so much respect both ways. Like, no, I respect you more. I respect you more.

[A]

And nobody's. He's not mad that, like, she blew up his spot.

[B]

No, he said, like, I expected it would get out. This is what she does. She's good, good at what she does. And it's all so respectful. Like, get married ship, ship. Get married ship. So I thought that was really cute.

[A]

It is. Thanks for sharing.

[B]

Are you ready for our next story?

[A]

Is this four? Yeah, yeah, I'm ready.

[B]

It's actually perfect to be the fourth story because the big four Beatles are headed to the big screen, so.

[A]

Oh, yeah. Did you see that Mikey Madison is playing, Rumored to be playing Yoko Ono.

[B]

I did see that. And I like that. I've decided Asian. I've decided I like her.

[A]

I like her, too. She's Jewish. Do you think it's crazy that, like, she's not Asian? Like, I think it's a little crazy.

[B]

No, I think she's perfect.

[A]

Okay.

[B]

And, like, people are so sensitive about that stuff these days. They've definitely looked through her lineage. She must have.

[A]

She's got an uncle.

[B]

She's got something. Because they wouldn't, like, like, do that if there was nothing there.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

I think she'll be perfect. I actually really like that. Because also, it's hard when your first role, you win the Oscar. Like, it's very.

[A]

Where do you go from here?

[B]

Your next role. Every year.

[A]

We never saw her again.

[B]

Agreed. Every Oscars, you see someone who you know, like, we're never gonna see you again. Like, I'm sorry. And it's cool if you win. It doesn't even matter if you win or you don't win. Like, we're not gonna see you again.

[A]

So this is, like, a highly anticipated casting. Like the movie. Not by me. I don't give a.

[B]

So here's who. There's a couple of goodies. So Barry Keoghan is playing Ringo Starr. I don't know if we already knew that, but it actually seems pretty on the news. Nose.

[A]

On the news. Yeah.

[B]

Even though I am.

[A]

I saw it on the news.

[B]

I'm a Sabrina. He could play Ringo. It's fine.

[A]

Yeah, like the loser beetle. Who cares?

[B]

Paul Mezcal will be playing Paul McCartney. Like, that's good for the group. Average.

[A]

Agreed. And he doesn't have to change his name.

[B]

Right. He won't be confused on set. When they're like, Paul, it's very Miley Stewart.

[A]

Miley Cyrus. Joseph Raven Simone. Raven Baxter.

[B]

Right. Joseph Quinn will be playing George Harrison. I don't know either of those people, so that works.

[A]

I know George. He's the least famous beetle. And I know Joseph. He's from Stranger Things. And he has, like, a cult following that doesn't include me, but I'm familiar with his game.

[B]

And then Harris Dickinson will play John Legend. John Lennon, which is the role of a lifetime.

[A]

Let me just look up this fella. Harris Dickinson. Oh, cutie.

[B]

Triangle of sadness. We saw that he was the one with the model girlfriend and baby.

[A]

Dreadful movie and crawdads. Yes. This casting is, like, very much like, it's, like, yassified. Like, they have all, like, all like, Paul Mezcal. Barry Coogan. It's all like the girlies. Do you know what I mean? Like, yeah, even this guy, like, he's from Triangle of Sadness. Like, it's all the, like, British hotties the moment. I guess that's what it should be.

[B]

It's because that's who the Beatles were.

[A]

But you know who I feel is missing from this casting? I don't know who he would play, but the guy from who played young Prince Charles and then was in the Challengers. Like, he's so classic.

[B]

Maybe he'll be like a manager or something.

[A]

Oh, yeah, I forgot there are other roles in the film. And then of course, I don't know if it's been confirmed that she's Yoko, but it's rumored.

[B]

No, I only saw Pop Crave said it and then I went to look for a story today and it's not. No one else is reporting it.

[A]

Okay.

[B]

But they are whispers that Amy Lou Wood from White Lotus might be cast as Patty Boyd. She's been posting some, like, Easter eggs of Patty. And Patty also had a gap tooth and they do look alike.

[A]

Okay, I don't. Who. Who's Patty in this life? So George, in the context of this.

[B]

Film, George Harrison's ex wife, of course.

[A]

Why do we care?

[B]

Because Amy Lou Wood from White Lotus.

[A]

No, no, I mean, like, why would her casting be of interest? Well, I guess. Sorry.

[B]

I also need to say that each beetle is getting their own movie. This is four different movies that are coming out in one year. So, like, if someone has an ex wife, that's a pretty big role in their movie.

[A]

Okay, totally forgot. And it also sounds like we are the type of people who need to see this movie because I legit know nothing about the Beatles and I actually don't care. I love Amy lwood. She's great in the White Lotus. And yes, she does look visually, mostly because of the gap, but also because they're just like pretty young girls. Like Patty Boyd.

[B]

Yeah. So I hope I like that that's that. Yeah, they're trying to make this, I guess, like Avengers where like every superhero has their own movie and then together they have one big movie and let's see how it goes. I. I would give it a chance if it's good.

[A]

I don't know that I would. That's very big of you, but I have a lot going on.

[B]

I just don't know if I have enough, like, time and space hours in.

[A]

The day to care about the Beatles four times.

[B]

Yeah. But I might become obsessed with the Beatles from this, as one does, like.

[A]

You did, like, with Elvis or more. Yeah.

[B]

Tell me.

[A]

Maybe you'll have, like, the Elvis effect.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

What's your favorite Beatles song?

[B]

Oh, interesting. Let me google. Let me look at their catalog quickly.

[A]

Oh, Blood D. Oh, Blooda. Like, that's so classic us.

[B]

Like, a lot of their songs are really annoying, but I do feel like they would have, like, a couple of pargy ones.

[A]

Yeah. I do think that when they say, hey, Judy. Judy. Like, they slap. They ate with that. It's like I find myself getting taken by the music. Of course. Here Comes the Sun always makes me think of the parent tribe.

[B]

It might be Here Comes the Sun. Yes. Some of these are so nice. Like, come together, like.

[A]

Yeah. Not my favorite, but it's more so like, that. There's nothing wrong with the song. There's wrong with, like, what the culture.

[B]

Did with the song Back in the USSR Is Beatles.

[A]

No, it's Sigourney Weaver.

[B]

I know. Well, if that's Beatles, I love that song.

[A]

It's Sigourney Weaver in Heartbreakers. Everybody knows she wrote that song.

[B]

I love that song.

[A]

Oh, I just got.

[B]

Let It Be is really pretty.

[A]

Oh, I agree. Par Delish. I love Fifth Harmony's cover of it. I'm being dead serious. It's really beautiful.

[B]

I love the Hebrew version.

[A]

Oh, also good.

[B]

I actually think it's better.

[A]

I. I think it's fair to say they have a lot of good songs, honestly.

[B]

They also have a lot of annoying songs like Yellow Submarine. What the is that?

[A]

I think that was like, kind of the. What does the fox say of the. Of that time? Honestly.

[B]

I agree, Harry.

[A]

And I'm sorry, you know, this is not very Gen X of me. This is not. Oh, my God, Jackie. Don't let your kids ever find Yellow Submarine.

[B]

We were at the farmer's market and they were giving out a flyer for, like, this Beatles cover band. It was a picture of a yellow submarine, and he was asking a lot of questions. So I put on the song oh, no. On repeat.

[A]

Oh, no, no.

[B]

That was a look.

[A]

It's kind of the baby shark of the. It's really the 70s or whenever the Beatles were.

[B]

Yeah. Okay.

[A]

And I think that the Beatles best song is four or five Seconds.

[B]

That's just Paul. Do you think that'll be in his one?

[A]

It better. Like, I think that four or Five Seconds by Rihanna, Paul and that other freak are. Is literally the best song made in the last, like, 25 years.

[B]

Yeah, it's really good from W. Like, so good.

[A]

And that's, like, the last song Rihanna ever released. And you know what, if that was the last song I released, I probably wouldn't release anything after that either because you're never gonna make anything as good.

[B]

Yeah. Are you ready for a fifth and final story?

[A]

No. She's kind of the name on everybody's lips today. Baby List. They are sponsoring the fifth and final story, which is a kind of a huge moment for the, for the brand.

[B]

And for us because we love List.

[A]

So I knew about Baby List obviously before I got pregnant. One, I know Jackie used it. But also anytime a friend of mine has a baby, like you just go to Baby List, you know that they have a recipe registry there. And so I knew that it was the place for registries, but I really didn't realize for myself. So we've talked about this a little bit. Like culturally, just like we're not the types of girls, we're very superstitious around pregnancy. So we're not having our nurseries ready to go by the six month mark. Like some of these girls on Tick Tock, I'm so jealous of them. But we just don't do that. So I have, but I found it like very overwhelming, like the things I'm going to need and like I'm very organized like that I have like ocd. And so Baby List has been amazing for like creating checklists and just like getting myself organized so that when the time comes I can order everything from Baby List like at once. I just think it's. It's literally become my new favorite app to scroll on. Like move over TikTok, it's me and the Baby List app. So it's basically a one stop shop for making it feel easy to prepare for having a baby. Obviously there's nothing easy about what's about to happen, but Baby List really does help when it comes to like the mind games, you know?

[B]

Yes. And it also helps with like the people asking, what do you want? Like, not only do I not want to tell you, I don't want to answer your text message. Here's the link. Link to my Baby List so that I'm getting only things that I want and need and not extraneous items that I don't want.

[A]

And you know what? They had a feature that I thought was so brilliant when I was buying a gift for my friends, Nikki and Jordan, it gave you an option. Do you want this person to send you a thank you note? And I was like, no, people should not have to send thank you notes at this time in their life.

[B]

Like so crazy.

[A]

It's. It's such a brilliant. I was like, oh, my God, everybody needs this. It was really. They really think of everything. And there's a reason why. It's the Internet's favorite registry. You can add anything from anywhere, find the best prices and keep track of everything. It's super easy and helpful. Get the best brands from a place that you can trust and let your friends and family find the best prices anywhere. It's a go to resource for growing families. It is so much more than a baby's registry. With an interactive checklist and shopping guides and expert reviews with real parenting advice. Their universal registry lets you add anything from any store. So everything's in one place, which is also kind of crazy like that you can literally register for anything.

[B]

No, it's amazing. You get that little add to baby list button on your bookmark bar and you go to any website, hit add to baby list like you could be@shop toastmerch.com Add into Babylist.

[A]

Just say, I also feel like it's really good for research. I was talking about, like, my stroller dilemma and being able to, like, read reviews and then, like, learn about different strollers. Baby List is super helpful for that and like, managing and keeping track of all of it. So again, while I haven't actually, I have purchased two things now from Babyliss because I am getting a little bit further along. So I have started, like, the purchasing very slowly. Very slowly. But, like, weeks and months ago, I really downloaded the app and, like, started cultivating my vibe. I was like, making little, like, graphics of, like, what my room could look like. Try not to get ahead of myself, of course, but Baby List has really just been like, a fabulous resource for me. So whether you're like a superstitious person or you're somebody who wants to get it all done, day one, really. Babylist is the perfect app to have downloaded on your phone.

[B]

It really is. I can't even tell what's better when you're the person receiving Baby List and You get everything that you want or when you're buying a gift for someone and you know that and you know.

[A]

It'S something they need.

[B]

Yeah, it's like, crushed it.

[A]

Oh, my God, I'm feeling really gassy.

[B]

Well, our fifth and final story is actually really funny to me because someone stepped in.

[A]

I can't wait to laugh.

[B]

Someone stepped in it today, and it was actually Ariana DeBose.

[A]

So, wow, what are the odds somebody would step in it, like, so majorly twice?

[B]

So this is really funny because she posted a quote about narcissism on her Instagram and the quote said, hold on, I need to get the exact words. It said, narcissism is not something to be coddled or encouraged. And it was on, like, a graphic of, like, flowers. Now, if you remember from last week, that was from Jonah Platt's post about Rachel Zegler.

[A]

Oh, my. Wait, not them making quote cards from Jonah Platt's Instagram comment.

[B]

Right. And let's be not forgot, Ariana DeBose and Rachel Zegler were in west side Story together.

[A]

Like, and they run in similar, like, theatrical circles.

[B]

Right. So now Ariana is clarifying that she did not know where the quote came.

[A]

I mean, who could know such a niche reference? I didn't even know it when she.

[B]

Posted the quote that said, narcissism is not something to be coddled or encouraged. In a since deleted Instagram post Tuesday, she said, quote, I post quotes all the time and thought this one was meaningful. Will fully cop to the fact that I did not do any research on where this quote came from, nor did I know of the connection until it was pointed out to me. I have no intention of inserting myself into a news cycle.

[A]

Who would literally, who would want to be a part of this?

[B]

She said, this is not the first time I've posted about dealing with narcissism, and it probably won't be the last, but next time I'll be sure to clarify its origins first.

[A]

I don't even think next time you need to do that. Like, what are the odds? This is so crazy.

[B]

So crazy. I actually like her statement. I feel like as best as she could backpella out of this, she did. And she also, like, didn't say she didn't get into picking sides of Joan or Rachel. She was like, no.

[A]

And I actually believe her, which is why this is, like, easy for. There's no. It's. So how do people even put together that this was related? Like, I would never have known. Now I would have loved for her to insert herself. Like, wow, does she hate Rachel Zegler? What's the tea? But I believe her that, like, seriously, she wanted no part of this. This was not like, a big statement. She just is like a quote card girly. And sometimes you quote card a little too close to the sun.

[B]

No, it's really true. And she backpedaled out of this, like, as best as she could. I think her statement really, like, I. I understand. I don't think it was a slight at Rachel Zegler.

[A]

No, I def. I definitely don't.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

I just want to know the person who took a quote from Jonah Platz, like, what inspired them to make it into a graphic.

[B]

They must have really resonated with it. People really get.

[A]

Read it again.

[B]

Narcissism is not something to be coddled or engaged, encouraged. It was imposed over a bouquet of flowers.

[A]

Is that, like a relatable.

[B]

People are really passionate about narcissism.

[A]

Yes. It's like kind of one of the hot button therapy words, especially. It's losing its meaning. It's losing its meaning.

[B]

It is losing its meaning. But people love to, like, accuse other people of narcissism. People have dealt with narcissists, both real and imagined are constantly speaking about it. So like she said, I will continue to post about narcissism, but I'll be sure to clarify the origins next time.

[A]

I, like, as she talks about it, like, it's, you know, like racism. Like it's like an, you know, like a cause to be. Do you know what I mean? I will continue. I will continue to post about anti Semitism and narcissism and bigotry. Like, she's acting like it's one of those isms. It's not. But I guess it's something that's really affected her. And to be honest, like, this is quite funny of her.

[B]

It's hysterical.

[A]

And I do believe her. I want to say I believe Ariana.

[B]

Yeah. Like, this isn't. She has, like, a couple of demerits. Of course, this will not be just one.

[A]

Just one.

[B]

But this actually is in the pro column because it's a hysterical saga.

[A]

Yeah. And I truly believe. Just like an Instagram faux pas. It's true. Like, nobody researches quote cards. You just, like, literally pick them up on the side of the road.

[B]

Yeah. And if you like the one line, it's like. Like, even if you didn't agree with what was on top or below, like, you didn't see it. Like, narcissism is not something to be encouraged or coddled. Okay.

[A]

Jackie loves that Instagram account, Third Eye. Thoughts. Like, do you know where all of their quotes are sourced from? No.

[B]

Well, no, but I think that they're the originators. I do.

[A]

I don't, actually.

[B]

Interesting.

[A]

I think. I think they pillage bradyquotes.com quite a bit.

[B]

Interesting. Well, they're curators, and that's a beautiful.

[A]

That's valid.

[B]

That's valid. That's real.

[A]

A thousand percent.

[B]

So, Ariana, thanks for the LOLs.

[A]

Truly, I enjoyed that. And I'm glad that, like, the Jonah Platt conversation is continuing, because that was seriously, like, one of the funniest things.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Now let's dive into the TV recap. Part one of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills reunion was on last night, and it's a tale of two couches. And the right couch just, like, is obviously my preferred couch, but they also are just, like, a real team and unit. And, like, the left couch is just falling apart at the seams. Like, it's so messy.

[B]

Kyle doesn't even want to be on the left. The left couch. It's like, she would love to be on the right couch, except, like, she completely ruined all of her chances of being on the right couch with everything she did this season.

[A]

Yeah. And so, really, Garcelle has been the. The focus of this first part. And I think watching her break for lunch and being like, I had no idea I was going to become, like, the Garcelle show. She really didn't know that, like, she had, like, rubbed so many people the wrong way. And I think it's becoming increasingly clear to her that she's on this island alone, and for a while, she was on an island alone with Sutton, and that was okay. And now Sutton is sort of like, jumped ship, and Garcelle's trying to bring her down with her being like, well, you said this off camera and, like. Like, nobody cares.

[B]

Yeah. No, I think, like, Sutton and Garcelle could still, like, be friends. Sutton doesn't want to not be friends with Garcelle, but she's, like, not gonna take up for her with the other girls unless it's Sarit, whose friendship she still wants. So really, like Kyle, she's just not going to be there for her, so. And Garcelle has only done that for Sutton, so of course resentment is going to build.

[A]

And I think it's interesting how the whole season, everybody's accused Bose of being Dorit's mouthpiece, and I actually haven't felt that way at all. She definitely likes to read best, and like, defends her friend. But I've never felt like she was speaking for Dorit. I did feel like last night at the reunion, she was being a little bit of a mouthpiece, but I like that she felt emboldened. Glinda emboldened him to, like, really, she didn't give a fuck. Like, she was, like, ready to, like, throw down at her first reunion.

[B]

Well, that's what the reunion is for. And I think that's why this one is so good, even compared to the season, is because, like, we're just speaking plain now. I'm gonna ask you a question. I'm gonna get the answer. I'm gonna ask you your opinion, and you're going to tell it to me. Whereas on the show, everything is like, you know, there's a million lunches and a million side conversations, and this one meets with that one, and it's like, let's lay it all out on the table. And these are opinionated and thoughtful women, so, like, they have a lot to say. And I was feeling like everyone was so well spoken in defending themselves or explaining themselves, and. But then the next person is like, well, you know, is cutting that down. I'm like, well, that makes sense, too.

[A]

And.

[B]

And that's why it was a really good reading. And even in Dorit talking about her divorce, which, like, isn't controversial in the group, really, I felt like she was doing such a good job of explaining where she's at, but it's. It's so weird how she's, like, separated from pk. They could still get back together. Like, that's her family, but also, like, for her job, which she will need if they divorce. Like, she kind of. He's her enemy. And they're, like, talking so poorly about each other. How do you get back together after that?

[A]

I know. And when they announced their separation, like, I really thought it was, like, fake. I thought, you know, storyline, like, drama. Of course they're gonna back together, but it's become increasingly clear that, like, they have real issues. And I also was really bothered by Kyle. Like, the whole Kyle PK thing. Like, she will not see how she's wrong in that. But I'm glad that Andy was like, you know, you really shook the community when your first response to hearing that PK was like, this monster who, like, verbally abused his wife was that, like, you couldn't say it it. And she really, like, didn't. I don't feel like she was held accountable enough for that. That was, like, one of the worst things she said. All season long, I just.

[B]

Well, when she explained herself and she was like, you know, you could come on here and say anything about your husband and get people on your side because it's only your story that we're hearing, which is actually true. I could see someone doing that, and that would be wrong. However, is that what you think of Dorit, this person who's been your friend for over five years and your best friend at times? You really think she's that. That sort of person? That that's what's more jarring, not the idea that someone could do that, because actually, I'm sure people do that. And we never hear from the husband, and they just get dragged through the mud, and we're like, yeah, women.

[A]

It's true.

[B]

But that's what you think of your friend. Why is that?

[A]

Your friend, them being like, you, you blew up his alcoholism. He had shared it. Like, maybe not on the show, but he shared it socially, on. On public, publicly, on social media. Like, they were really grasping at straws.

[B]

So funny. As if Dorit, like, had been cagey about it. It. Dorit's not opening up. Dorit's not real. Dorit doesn't share. Dorit tells everyone when she speaks to them about her divorce, you're exploiting. They just hate.

[A]

Yeah. There were two, like, kind of gasping moments, and they both were directed at Garcelle, which I actually felt bad for. She was just getting, like, eaten up and chewed out. Obviously, when Erica was like, I guess I just wish you were more interesting in your life, like, because it was true. It's like, everybody gives so much. And, like, Garcelle doesn't hold back. She shares about her kids. Like, she shares about everything. It's just not that compelling. And so I think her most compelling moments are when she comes for other people, which is not, like, a good place to be. And so when she was just like, I wish she were more interesting, it was just kind of. It wasn't. It was mean, obviously, but it was so honest. It was, like, true. Yeah. And so that was kind of. Yikes. And then when Bose was like, I mean, everybody. And she was pointing it at Garcelle, just you thinking that, like, I'm so easily manipulated to think things of you from Dorit. Like, you must think very low of yourself. I thought she was gonna say, you must think very low of me.

[B]

Well, that.

[A]

But then she was like, like, well, of course. But then when she was like, you think love yourself, I was like, damn, Garcelle cannot catch a break. Like, honestly, I Actually felt bad for her.

[B]

No. And it's such a lame look that she's so, like, big and bad in her confessionals and like, yes. Like, really, things as harsh and true as this. And then. Yeah, she's, you know, in the moment. She has nothing to say back. It's just like, it's a weenie look.

[A]

So I feel like since she started, she's always been, like, really kind of slay the house down in her confessionals, but at the reunion, it's never been like a come to Jesus on Garcelle moment.

[B]

There's just been a lot of other stuff going. Going on.

[A]

This is, like, years in the making, which is why, like, the. The burglary stuff. So everybody's kind of airing out, like, years of grievances, which is just unfortunate for her. But this isn't new behavior. But she got used to being able to say kind of like, up. And Dorit is right that, like, you scour Twitter for, like, the theory that this was like an insurance setup, the burglary for Dorit and her husband, like, that was a conspiracy theory from Twitter. There was no proof, no evidence of that ever. And, like, Garcelle really ran with it and talked about it it the season before last and then again this season because she got away with it. So she's just gotten kind of used to saying crazy things. And for the first time. Yeah. Maybe it's because there's nothing else going on this season. They're like, well, let's talk about Carcel.

[B]

Yeah. And because, like, Sutton's not unwavering in her support for her, so it just looks even worse when it's just like, everyone piling on Garcelle and she has nothing to say.

[A]

Yeah. The looks from the group collectively, like, we're not my favorite. And I feel like Beverly Hills always really brings it.

[B]

Yeah. I thought Dorit looked great.

[A]

She looks very thin. Like, not in, like a tiny. Not in a complimentary way. I mean, like, it feels like, like.

[B]

The stress on her. So when she says, like, she's heartbroken and, like, I believe her, of course. Like, and I. Why does, like, no one believe her? It's really crazy how these women know. I mean, Bose, of course, supports her and Erica does too, in the way that. And we have to remember who Erica was when she came on the show. Like, not a self proclaimed, like, not a girl's girl. And I, yeah, she's changed so much since being on the show, but she's never gonna be like that, us again. So, like, teamwork. Makes the dream team. Like, she's just like her own person. So as much as she is, could be, like, supportive and be that for Dorit. She is, and I have no issue with her whatever. But it just looks different than, like, Bose, who's like, yes, girl. Like, we got this. Us against the world.

[A]

Did you feel like that comment Sutton made to Andy about, like, never having been married was, like, kind of weird and contentious? Because I got what she was saying in terms of Keely and Bose being like, you know, a guy who's approaching 50 and has never been married or has kids, like, does give you pause. Like, does he have commitment issues? Like, why now? Why does he want to get. And Andy was like, well, I've never been married. And it's obviously different. You know, he's gay, and. And the cultures are just different. And it's just like, I don't know. I don't think it's weird that Andy's never been married. I just don't. Like.

[B]

Yeah, but if someone was, like, wanting to settle down with Andy now and they were my friend, like, yeah, I'd have reservations that he is up for the commitment of. And, you know, because he's been 50 years of not.

[A]

But actually, I wouldn't. I just feel like, you know, in the gay community, it's like, it's not as big of a deal. I felt they're not as traditional.

[B]

I felt like Sutton was spot on, actually, and it just got about Keely.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

About. About Andy was like, Andy is not a commitment person. Like, he doesn't want a life partner. And so what? One day, after 50 years, he wakes up and now he knows how to be in a committed relationship. Like, I don't think so. So I think Sutton, like, like, was straight facts. Like, yeah, I. I feel that way about you.

[A]

And look at. And then. And then she was like. And look at you.

[B]

Yeah, he's a playboy. He is. So, like.

[A]

Yeah, I guess I just thought it was a kind of a crazy.

[B]

It's a crazy thing to say, like, to your boss and the person who's meeting the conversation, who you do want to like you and be on your side. But I actually. I thought she was spot on.

[A]

Damn. I thought she was spot on about Keely. Like, it is a valid concern. That's like, the one thing about any.

[B]

Friend who's dating anyone who's, like, you know, even a man who's like, even 40 that's never been married or have kids or have been in a long term or engaged, like, it's just a red flag that can be worked through or understood. But like it definitely gives you pause. I feel like Sutton was totally right for saying that.

[A]

Can we talk about Bose's Malibu house? I had no idea she had a beachfront house in Malibu.

[B]

And this whole time, let alone that burned down. Burned down. I knew her house burned out, but I thought it was.

[A]

Oh, I didn't know that.

[B]

We kept seeing on the show.

[A]

Oh. And I guess they had filmed, but because it was unseen footage between her and Sutton talking about Keely and it was at the Malibu house. And I know those houses. It's like when you drive down Pacific coast highway and they're on the beach side. They're all gone right now. But like those are like millions and millions of dollars. Like that's something I would have liked to have seen.

[B]

Yeah, I didn't realize that.

[A]

I found that shocking.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Sad because we got that whole thing about Garcelle's beach house. Yeah, we know about everybody's second homes. Palm Springs, Kyle.

[B]

Well, we were just getting to know Bose.

[A]

Yeah. But like having a beach house in Malibu, that's definitely something worth knowing.

[B]

Yeah, it's true.

[A]

So I thought it was actually very good. I had very low expectations for a reunion part one in general, especially for like such a bloss season. But you know what? I actually really enjoyed it.

[B]

I enjoyed it also. So we'll see what's next.

[A]

We've got Summer house tonight. Oh, tomorrow. Okay. Let's remind everyone 10:00am Eastern Time is merch. Tomorrow is also our last episode of the week. We are taking off Friday. Jackson. Some big, big plans and you know what, taking the day.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

So 100%. Even though we had one on Monday, like I need to.

[B]

That was not a day. I'm sorry. That was harder than it was for me.

[A]

So tomorrow, 10am Eastern Time. Shoptoastmerch.com I would recommend setting your alarms. There is a good amount of, you know, items available but we did. We do have a limit on how much is going to be available to ship in the next one to two weeks if you don't get what you want in terms of sizing or items. All the items are going to go into pre order after that. So you will then have to wait about six weeks. But you will get what you want. So don't be worried about that. You can check out our Instagram at the toast for all the items. Jax, generally you're wearing what size and everything.

[B]

Large. I took a large in everything and it's super cozy, but could have even done a medium in this for something more fitted.

[A]

Yeah. I have an XL and everything. Just because, like, I think, you know, I have, like, a complex about how I look. But I think actually, a large might have better suited me in pretty much everything. But if you're going super oversized, I would size up.

[B]

Yeah. Always cozy.

[A]

That's our show, you guys. Coffee's not sitting right in my stomach. You want to wrap up?
