Like, why, why are we terse today? You're just feeling thirsty.

That's a weird question to ask. Why are we tersed today?

It's the terse.
- [00:57]
B
Welcome to the Terse Turd.
- [00:59]
A
Welcome to the Tersty Turd. Welcome. Welcome. If I ever open a bar, it's gonna be called the Tercity Turd.
- [01:04]
B
Yummy.
- [01:06]
A
No, you guys know that if I ever open a bar, I have like, the perfect name for it, right?
- [01:10]
B
Okay, what is it?
- [01:11]
A
Barvelous. Like marvelous, but with a B. And we're just gonna, like, drink shooters and soak up each other's awesomeness. Oh, we are definitely gonna listen to awesome music.
- [01:20]
B
Oh, well, of course, we're never not listening to awesome music. If not, we creating our own awesome
- [01:24]
A
music stream Toast by Claudia. Audrey. I do feel that like, owning a bar as obviously like a stream of income is terrible because I think like, the restaurant industry, but at like, a certain level when you're just like, opening things for fun, I do think it would be fun to have a bar that, like, I don't rely on financially.
- [01:39]
B
Yeah, that's a passion project. Correct. So that would be your passion.
- [01:42]
A
Yeah.
- [01:42]
B
I actually discovered, like, another job that I could hold that I would excel at. I always known this about myself.
- [01:48]
A
Well, you have always said teacher.
- [01:50]
B
Yeah. And I would be an amazing teacher. And I feel like everyone here can agree.
- [01:54]
A
Yeah, I agree. To what age? Students. Oh, elementary, middle, younger.
- [01:59]
B
I don't need those, like, talking back kids. I couldn't, like, because then, you know, middle school or. No, no, I think elementary school. I think I have the disposition of an elementary school teacher.
- [02:09]
A
What's the other job?
- [02:10]
B
So yesterday I went shopping with my friends.
- [02:12]
A
Oh, yeah.
- [02:13]
B
And the other job that I really would be amazing at is as a sales associate.
- [02:17]
A
Yes.
- [02:18]
B
And I do it for you. All the time.
- [02:19]
A
You do.
- [02:20]
B
And yesterday I was doing it for my friends. It was day two of, like, mom's Gone wild college reunion week. We had, like, such a hard day. 2 and final day of. Yeah, college reunion weekend on a Monday. And we went to town, we went shopping. And it's so funny. Yesterday I was wearing my Hill house dress and I was like, I need to get more nap dresses. I didn't realize there's a store in the Hamptons. And we just stumbled upon it organically. So I was like, oh, I want to get another dress. So we went in and I convinced all of them to buy nap dresses. They were not there for nap dresses. Like, they were looking amazing. I literally. The salespeople didn't need to do anything. Like, I was convincing each of them. Like, why each dress was amazing for them. There was one that Rebecca tried on that was so gorgeous, but she's like, I have nowhere to wear this. I'm like, you have that wedding in South Carolina. This is perfect for welcome dress.
- [03:05]
A
So I agree to an extent. The only issue with you becoming like a full time sales associate is twofold. One, you really are amazing at it for people you know, personally.
- [03:14]
B
Okay.
- [03:14]
A
I think the lack of closeness to a random customer might affect your sales.
- [03:20]
B
Perhaps I would need to be tested. Like, I did it. I do. Every time we go shopping, I push you into buying so much stuff. You're always so exciting. You wear those things and you're so great.
- [03:28]
A
You do it great. The only other thing is that, like, with a commission based job, like, you do need this, like, aggressive energy. And I think that, like, the best sales associate toe the line between, like, annoying and pushy. I don't know. I don't know if you have that, like, pushy annoyingness.
- [03:43]
B
No, I don't. But, like, and usually I'm pretty shy. But, like, if you've come into my store, I'm going to take that as
- [03:48]
A
a store owner here.
- [03:49]
B
No, no, no. But, like, you've walked into a store that you like. Like, it's not like I have to get people off the street and say, come into my store. That I couldn't do. I couldn't. Man on the street. But you're in my store. You're curious about what we have here. Let me show you around. We have some really nice things. And now I'm remembering I did this for my friend Erica in Florida. She was like, I want to go shopping with you. And I didn't really know like, a lot about her style, but like, oh, My God, we slayed. We found a completely new style.
- [04:11]
A
Yeah, I actually, I agree that that would be a good job for you.
- [04:14]
B
So if I'm like ever looking for employment, I think that's what I should do because it's really my strong suit. Me and my friends all got nap dresses and like Dana got a nap dress.
- [04:23]
A
So cute.
- [04:23]
B
Dana has an app dress now. I'm so excited for her. It's really the perfect thing. It's easier than wearing shorts and a T shirt.
- [04:27]
A
It is, it is. And it's like, it's universally flattering.
- [04:31]
B
And I guess being an influencer, I am a little bit of a salesperson. Well, this is the big conversation about not on Nantucket. You're not about influencer culture. And of course I was so self conscious, I was taking pictures in the store. But I'm a Hill House partner and I just, I just want to say
- [04:44]
A
Hill House is like kind of a lead sponsor of this show. So you have nothing to never have. Like, and like, you work with the
- [04:50]
B
brand, I work with the brand. And I didn't get any other people in my content. Like, I would never do that. But I was definitely feeling self conscious being an influencer in a store and like minding the way I behave.
- [04:59]
A
Like, unfortunately like the message. Because while we're having this conversation about influencers and their behavior outside of their homes, like, there's definitely a conversation to be had. You're not really the problem. So, like, I'm glad that you're like making changes, but you weren't really the problem. I do feel that the people we're actually talking about, like, aren't listening. The people who do film others without their consent and do like make big rushes.
- [05:19]
B
They're not listening. They're not swirly. That's not swirly. Correct.
- [05:22]
A
No. They're not listening to Paige Lawrence either.
- [05:24]
B
No, no. Because they're not dairy. You know, non dairy.
- [05:28]
A
They're not.
- [05:29]
B
They're so lactose. So we just had like a wonderful day for mature women. That's what everything we were doing was like such a mature woman thing to do. Like even like nap dresses. It's just like a sign of maturity.
- [05:40]
A
Absolutely.
- [05:41]
B
And we were so excited. And then we had a little like seaside lunch at the wharf.
- [05:45]
A
So cute.
- [05:46]
B
Bill Bouquet, like so fancy. We went to the bakery. We just like walked around. We had such a great day. It's a new tradition that we're starting. Cuz it's hard for us to get together ever since jobs and kids and they come and visit me, like. But usually, like, one at a time. So to be able to spend, like, two days really, like, uninterrupted hours together was so special.
- [06:07]
A
You know, I love an installment, so. Yeah, make it a yearly installment.
- [06:10]
B
It's a yearly. Because now I'm up. I'm like, up north.
- [06:11]
A
And then it's like a real Netflix movie.
- [06:13]
B
Yeah.
- [06:13]
A
Where, like, you are the girls.
- [06:15]
B
It's like 28 summers. Like, where you have that weekend.
- [06:17]
A
Four Seasons.
- [06:18]
B
Yes.
- [06:18]
A
28 summers. That's romantic.
- [06:20]
B
Partners.
- [06:21]
A
No, it's like Four Seasons, the show you refuse to watch. But. But I know you would, like, watched it. You have?
- [06:25]
B
Yeah, I watched it last summer.
- [06:27]
A
Oh. So it's like Four Seasons, but they take four trips a year, which is a lot for people who have, like, kids. And they're. A lot of them are grown.
- [06:33]
B
No.
- [06:33]
A
But they have, like, busy jobs. The kids aren't so grown. When we first started, they were, like, in high school. College. Ish.
- [06:37]
B
Like, but that's great. Like, that's not.
- [06:39]
A
Yeah, yeah. No, it's just like, four trips. That's the most unrealistic part of the show. It's like that these people can get together four times a year, and that
- [06:45]
B
means that every vacation that they go on is with each other. Because who takes more than four trips a year?
- [06:49]
A
Right. And they're like, you know, they're not all international. Some of them are just, like, down to the Jersey Shore. But still.
- [06:55]
B
They went to the Jersey Shore. I didn't watch season two yet, but I did enjoy season one, and I watched it.
- [06:59]
A
Yeah, sorry. Okay, so.
- [07:00]
B
So the Jacuzerie.
- [07:02]
A
So you're like kind of four seasons.
- [07:03]
B
The Jacuzeri that I refusory.
- [07:05]
A
You're just One season.
- [07:07]
B
That will be the name of your show. One season.
- [07:11]
A
That sounds beautiful. Set in a seaside town.
- [07:13]
B
Yeah.
- [07:14]
A
Four long lost sisters getting together once a year.
- [07:19]
B
And. And the fifth bonus, Jonas.
- [07:22]
A
Oh, yeah. I pop in and out. Like, I come to a lunch, but I don't want to, you know, obviously, like, make it about myself. I'm not a Colgate girl.
- [07:27]
B
Always invited.
- [07:27]
A
Of course I came to lunch, but I didn't come to dinner.
- [07:29]
B
Like, you know, dinner was late and far and like, I noticed.
- [07:32]
A
But no, but also. And it was at my favorite restaurant. But, like, that's like a hair too far. Like, I'm very much like a fringe character in this novel.
- [07:38]
B
You're so not. I actually think you're, like, you're actually.
- [07:41]
A
No, I'm very much like.
- [07:42]
B
I play you in the movie Megan Fox. It's like the. Actually, I don't think you'll like what I'm gonna say, because it's, like, what? It's like, supporting character.
- [07:50]
A
What, ugly?
- [07:51]
B
No, she's not ugly, but she's always playing, like, that supportive, like, funny friend,
- [07:57]
A
like Melissa McCarthy.
- [07:58]
B
No, it has nothing to do with the looks. It was just, like, the feeling of, like, always being, like, the supportive, funny friend, like, Lake Bell.
- [08:05]
A
Okay.
- [08:06]
B
Don't you feel it?
- [08:07]
A
Yeah, that's so me. Like, Belle. She's, like, such a cool girl.
- [08:12]
B
Yeah. She comes in, makes everyone laugh. I know.
- [08:15]
A
It's very much like. I know you're not gonna like this comparison, but it's actually like Jessa from Girls.
- [08:19]
B
I genuinely got so scared because I was like, why did I start this conversation?
- [08:21]
A
Yeah, I mean, that's definitely a conversation. You never want to start with me. It's like, what character would play you or, like, what celebrity you remind me of? I fucking hate that.
- [08:27]
B
It was more so about the fact that, like, you are, like, the supporting.
- [08:31]
A
I'm very cosmopolitan, too. I just, like, sort of flow in and out of the group.
- [08:34]
B
Yeah, she comes in. When will she be there? She's like, everyone's favorite character, but she's not a main character. No, but then she obviously like being
- [08:41]
A
a fan favorite, and then she has
- [08:42]
B
to start a show. She has to swing. All right.
- [08:45]
A
That's so mean. Like, Belle, Turtle, Bell, Lake, Turkey.
- [08:50]
B
So we'll see you this time next year. That was the name of the show this time next year.
- [08:54]
A
Oh, that's cute. Let's be a book first up to it.
- [08:58]
B
We'll write it.
- [08:59]
A
Write it, girl.
- [09:01]
B
I'll write it. So that was really fun. And everyone got nap dresses. I'm so excited.
- [09:07]
A
So cute. I was sort of, like, yearning to see the Odyssey last night, so.
- [09:11]
B
Well, obviously, like, are going to see the Odyssey.
- [09:12]
A
I know, I know. I was yearning to see it. So just to, like, sort of get my fix, I watched Twilight. Robert Pattinson's, like, probably second best work, I would say. First, actually watch the first two movies, I guess. The Odyssey. You don't know that that's what streets are saying.
- [09:28]
B
It's his best performance of a life.
- [09:29]
A
No, like, his best movie.
- [09:30]
B
Like, he said, well, the movie's great,
- [09:31]
A
but he's actually in two Christopher Nolan movies.
- [09:33]
B
He could stink.
- [09:34]
A
He could. He would never. My boyfriend and I feel like I have this realization, like, once every five years when I rewatch the Twilight Saga, but, like, there's actually never been a better movie made ever. Yeah, a perfect casting. Like, I don't have one note except for Bella's wig.
- [09:50]
B
That's the second movie.
- [09:51]
A
It's the third. I skipped watching New Moon. Edward's not in it. Like, I don't need to watch it.
- [09:55]
B
No, no, but we're talking about the first movie.
- [09:57]
A
No, I talk about the franchise. I think the franchise is perfect. I have no notes of the franchise. But yes, the first movie is an example of a perfect film. It's a perfect book adaptation. Whether you see them. I have seriously, not one criticism. Not that I read the book, but
- [10:11]
B
you just know it's like Harry Potter.
- [10:12]
A
No, I remember, like, the fans, like, everyone was obsessed.
- [10:14]
B
I didn't read Harry Potter, but I know it's a perfect ADAP T shirt.
- [10:16]
A
Exactly. Twilight is a perfect movie.
- [10:18]
B
Not my house, but I know my way around.
- [10:20]
A
Exactly. But you're right. Yes. The first one, like, I guess film critics could maybe find issue with 2, 3, 4, 5.
- [10:26]
B
No, no, 1 with 2, 3, 4, five are perfect.
- [10:28]
A
Four or five are perfect. Three is good. Two seriously should have been cut from the series because, like, Edward goes missing one. No, because plot wise. I see what you're saying, but no. And there was no offense, like a
- [10:40]
B
little too much Jacob, but that's hurtful to your friend.
- [10:44]
A
I know. It's like, actually I was thinking about this last night.
- [10:47]
B
You were struggling.
- [10:48]
A
I wasn't struggling, but like, I was just sort of like watching Twilight at a glance and thinking about the fact like, yes, I am close personal friends with Taylor Lautner and Alice. Yeah, that's right, Alice.
- [10:59]
B
But your team Edward.
- [11:01]
A
Correct.
- [11:02]
B
Obviously.
- [11:03]
A
No, of course. And so is Taylor Lautner's wife. Like, I don't have any qualms about that. Like, that's very much like his truth and my truth and her truth. Like, congrats to everyone. But just like being like such a die hard TWI heart and then like kind of growing up and having two friends who were in Twilight. I just feel like I don't talk about that enough when we edit my list of accomplishments, obviously, like the bear is one of them and I think having two friends from the Twilight franchise is also another one.
- [11:26]
B
Yeah, yeah. There are more.
- [11:29]
A
More accomplishments or more friends that were in Twilight? Oh, of course. New York Times bestselling novel.
- [11:34]
B
I don't want to say, but I consider it an accomplishment.
- [11:38]
A
You consider an accomplishment? I think you don't, but I don't.
- [11:42]
B
The masked singer.
- [11:43]
A
Oh, no, I would say that's an accomplishment. I didn't like, have the most amazing time through no fault of my own. But yeah, that was an accomplishment. Like I sang on tv.
- [11:52]
B
Yeah.
- [11:53]
A
Yeah.
- [11:53]
B
She's unsnappable. She's a posture with. She's invincible.
- [12:02]
A
She wins every single day. Like, new karaoke song for me, unlocked once, at least. I have, like five songs, but that one just went straight to the top.
- [12:10]
B
At least you got that.
- [12:10]
A
And I know all the words. Like, I don't even need the. The screen.
- [12:14]
B
Yeah.
- [12:15]
A
So today's Wednesday. We have stories. This is kind of like a chill day because we're kind of like chill girls who drink beer and like sports. Yeah, I have a basketball on my sweater. Is there any, like, basketball news that we should talk about?
- [12:27]
B
No, we talked about that actually, a little bit. There's some, like, I guess, basketball adjacent news in the stories.
- [12:32]
A
I'm sure there's like, sports was like, an athlete made some news yesterday for proposing to Madison Beer. Yes.
- [12:38]
B
You know what? There's actually a lot of sports news now that I think about it.
- [12:41]
A
I mean, that makes sense. Like, we drink so much beer and we, like, love to go to bars. It's just, like, frustrating for us.
- [12:45]
B
We love to go to bars called Barveless because we're the biggest sports fans.
- [12:48]
A
No, it's true. And it's, like, very frustrating for us to, like, go to these bars, like, not find a lot of females just because, like, we're not like the other females. But we figure it out. It's just like we, like. We're just one of the guys, you know? Well, two of the guys.
- [13:01]
B
I am not one of the guys.
- [13:02]
A
Nobody on the planet has ever been less of a guy.
- [13:06]
B
Less of one of the guys than me.
- [13:08]
A
It's true.
- [13:09]
B
Yeah. Yeah. So I just wanna, like, that's what makes us work. Because you're so one of the guys. Like, opposites attract. We're so getting so true. You're so, like, guys girl, and I'm so girls girl.
- [13:21]
A
And, like, I feel like the guys really like hanging out with me because, like, I'm really just one of them. And, like, we can, like, joke and stuff. And I'm not like other girls who are, like, sensitive. Right, right.
- [13:29]
B
You're so not sensitive.
- [13:31]
A
Yeah, that's what all the guys always say about me. Like, Claudia, she's like, obviously, like, really, really hot, but she's also just like, one of the guys. I'm just like. I feel like a lot of girls, like, don't have a lot of guy friends. Like, I do, but I don't know I grew up with a lot of brothers. That's always what those are saying. Like, I have so many brothers growing up.
- [13:49]
B
It's true. Yeah, I guess that would, like, you know, make you one of the guys.
- [13:53]
A
I don't know. Like, we have Michaela, who's literally the only girl in our family. She's never been less one of the guys.
- [13:59]
B
She's like, she grows up, like, she'll know how to hang around guys because, like, that's what she's done her whole life. Like, I could see that makes sense. I don't know.
- [14:05]
A
Like, these days she's like, increasingly ignoring them and just like, doing her own thing, but.
- [14:07]
B
Right. But like, she knows how to move within, like a male dominated field.
- [14:12]
A
She and I have that in common. I think we should dive in. So much to do, so much to say.
- [14:19]
B
Okay, without further ado to do, it is time for the fast side stories that you da do need to know.
- [14:25]
A
And today's episode is brought to you by a brand new sponsor, but not a new company in our lives. And it's Nori. Everyone has a steamer horror story. One that leaks, one that spits water all over your clothes, or one that just makes getting ready way harder than it should be. And that's why we're so excited about today's sponsor, Nori. We are thrilled to be among the first to tell you that that the brand's newest product launch, the Nori Cloud, which welcomes your wardrobe to Cloud nine with this new handheld steamer designed to upgrade every aspect of the traditional steaming experience. So I feel like growing up is realizing, like, all your clothes need to be steamed before you wear them and after you wear them, they, like, need to be steamed again before you put them in the closet. But steamers are just so crazy. The Nori Steamer, which you've probably seen all over social media, it's like extremely viral. Let me tell you, it is worth the hype. I did get it a little while ago. I've been wearing, like, a lot of silk pants. I don't, I don't know if you guys know that, but every time I sit in the podcast, like, it's just a whole thing. So you need a good steamer. So if you're new to Nori, the brand is best known for its viral handheld steam iron, the Nori Press. Nori is actually iron spelled backwards. And the Nori Press became such a standout success with Target shoppers that Target invited Nori to expand in an entirely new category, which is what led to the creation of the Nori Cloud Steamer. So the rather than creating another steamer, they just reimagined every detail to solve the biggest frustrations people have with the traditional steamer. So the Nori Cloud heats up in 25 seconds. It delivers up to 20 minutes of continuous steam with fewer refills. And most importantly, it features advanced anti spit technology to help prevent leaks sputtering and water spots that make traditional steamers so frustrating. So visit your local Target store or Nori Co and use code Toast at checkout for 20 off your first purchase. That's www.nori.code is T O A S T for 20 off your first order. Today's episode is also brought to you by Truvia. Truvia Allulose plus Stevia Sweetener and Monk Fruit Sweetener is the newest product from Truvia. If you are looking for a sugar alternative but like not a job that goes along with it, let me introduce you to Truvia Allulose Blend. So with the familiar taste and performance of sugar, it helps make making cutting it helps make cutting back feel easy rather than restrictive. It swaps in at a one to one ratio with sugar. You can use it confidently in your favorite recipes with no adjustments needed. So they blend Allulose with Stevia Sweetener and Monk Fruit Sweetener.

You're welcome.

First service, first story. Madison Beer is engaged to Justin Herbert after nearly one year of dating Justin Herbert, who is the Los Angeles Chargers quarterback. If you're not like a guy's girl and didn't know that he's a big deal.
- [19:07]
A
I just feel like you're listening to this podcast. You, like, grew up with brothers and like, you're like, chill, like, so you
- [19:12]
B
obviously knew who Justin Herbert was and he plays for the Chargers that are not charging on my iPad because they got to get iPad instead of mine, is now engaged to Madison Beer, the pop star.
- [19:24]
A
Yeah, I like love that as a culture because people are like freaking out about this more so than really anything Madison Beer has ever done career wise. And it's so interesting that, like, as a culture, maybe just, like, as a generation, because, like, we really grew up on all those movies where it was, like, the popular girl and the quarterback. Like, there is something so American and, like, beautiful about, like, a pretty popular girl and a quarterback. Like, you just love to see it. And that's why people, like, love Haley Steinfeld and, of course, Travis and Taylor.
- [19:50]
B
Like, but Taylor's not actually the. Well, now she says still identifies as, like, the nerd who takes off his glasses.
- [19:56]
A
She's not that. And so I just think, like, Americans will always rally behind this. And, like, I was shocked at how many people cared about this and, like, why this was a big deal. Like, I bet you didn't know that Madison Beer has been on tour for a year. Like, nobody. Like, she kind of, like, can't get arrested career wise.
- [20:09]
B
No, no.
- [20:09]
A
She's so talented. Like, her voice is insane. She's gorgeous.
- [20:13]
B
But, you know, people think, like, her. Her beauty has been, like, a trap for her. Have you seen that? Definitely something, like, and the fact that, like, she never took off. No, no. Like, she. She won't, like, do ugly things. Do you know what I mean? Like, everyone, except everyone is beautiful who sings and is in Hollywood and they, like, do interesting things with their look. And, like, she only ever wears, like, a body contrast and loose waves.
- [20:36]
A
Yeah.
- [20:36]
B
Like, black highlighter. And, like, because she, like, doesn't, like, change it up because she sticks to just, like, being beautiful, they think that's, like, part of her artistic demise.
- [20:45]
A
So that's actually really interesting. And I think a good example of somebody who does that. And it's. I think that they're really successful, but I do think it hinders them from, like, reaching a new level. Is Dula Peep Dua Lipa. Like, she's also just, like, so beautiful. Sickening. And it's like, she doesn't open up, she doesn't share. She doesn't bleed out. She doesn't get ugly.
- [20:59]
B
Completely different.
- [20:59]
A
Are you talking about physical ugly or, like, physical ugly? Oh, it's like, both. Like, you.
- [21:04]
B
Yeah, I guess you're making a good point. That's not the point that I'm making. Okay. I'm saying because, like, Madison, she never cut her hair short. She never, you know, eyebrow for a magazine shoot. Like, she just, like, we just. She constantly looks like, like, the pretty girl in high school, and there's no evolution.
- [21:17]
A
She literally is the pretty girl in high School.
- [21:19]
B
I understand. I don't want to be ugly either.
- [21:21]
A
No. And if I was like born looking like that, you're never gonna catch me slumming it as an ugly person.
- [21:24]
B
Right. But there's just not like really been an evolution and like she was like Justin Bieber's protege.
- [21:29]
A
Like she kind of had like every making of being huge. And I mean, if you've ever heard the song Melodies by Madison Beer, like one of the first songs. I hear melodies in my head, Hear melodies in my bed. Like, so good. Yeah. She just like musically, sonically, chorerically, can't get anything off the ground. Meanwhile, I've seen more. Meanwhile he to this engagement.
- [21:53]
B
He picked her up off the ground after he proposed.
- [21:56]
A
No. The pictures are sickening. She's wearing like such a cute lace skirt. I don't know why. This is like the thing that's gonna. Seriously, it's like everyone, everyone, like needs a thing. Right.
- [22:06]
B
She has now married out of the Kia Asylum.
- [22:08]
A
Yes. I didn't know that that was really an option, but she's definitely Kia Asylum material.
- [22:12]
B
Yeah.
- [22:13]
A
And I'm just shocked at like the reception to this. I'm excited, but like, I didn't know other people literally knew who she was.
- [22:18]
B
Yeah, no, people, people know who she is. Like maybe she just performed at Madison
- [22:22]
A
Square Garden, but like no one talked.
- [22:23]
B
In what capacity on her tour.
- [22:25]
A
Yes. Apparently I've been following on Tick Tock. She's on this like kind of cursed tour where every night there's like an issue like a light or a microphone or a wardrobe. And it just came to a culmination at Madison Square Garden. I believe the tour ended there.
- [22:40]
B
Got it. I'm glad the tour ended. I think.
- [22:42]
A
Jackie, quick, name one Madison Beer song.
- [22:49]
B
Madison.org.
- [22:52]
A
that's what I mean.
- [22:53]
B
Like. No, I know there's something weird about her career. I know she. That she can't get arrested even though she's talented and beautiful and you would think like those two things.
- [23:00]
A
Plus and she's like, she's insane numbers on social. Like, kids love her.
- [23:04]
B
She had like, like some successful backing at a certain point.
- [23:07]
A
Yeah. She was considered like her launch on the scene was like, Justin Bieber found this girl. She's like the next thing. And she was a scooter brawn girl. And then I do believe, like they fell out badly. All of them. Yeah. There's obviously like that iconic video of her. You know, I was supposed to be in the video.
- [23:23]
B
I love her. I do hope that they get married. Like they need to get married. Oh, I think they will because, like, this is a major step, but, like, we're still in the marathon.
- [23:31]
A
Yeah, of course. No, no, like, the race to the altar starts now.
- [23:33]
B
She should get married and I think
- [23:35]
A
she should retire from the pop girl scene.
- [23:38]
B
Yeah. And the pop, like, the music has brought her to Justin.
- [23:41]
A
Yes. It's kind of like Hailee Steinfeld. Even though Hailee Steinfeld's pop career, like, left us wanting so much more.
- [23:47]
B
Yeah. And she acts she was Justin Sinners, which was like.
- [23:49]
A
Right, right.
- [23:50]
B
Gears movie. But, like, I just feel like Madison Beer should be a kept woman. She's certainly like, she's earned it.
- [23:55]
A
She's worked hard enough.
- [23:56]
B
She's earned it.
- [23:57]
A
Yeah. No, I love this and I love how excited people are for her. Like, that's what, like, the fans want. That's what the fans love to see.
- [24:04]
B
Yeah.
- [24:05]
A
Congrats.
- [24:05]
B
I hope they get married quickly. I'm just like, well, they'll probably have
- [24:09]
A
to get married now in the next off season.
- [24:11]
B
Yeah, I know. Your engagement is so, like, standard.
- [24:14]
A
Yeah.
- [24:15]
B
March.
- [24:15]
A
The starting ends in February. Yes.
- [24:17]
B
Like, but they dated like, less than a year. That's really good.
- [24:20]
A
You know, I think that they, like, just celebrated their one year anniversary and
- [24:23]
B
she locked it down.
- [24:24]
A
When, you know, you know, the ring is enormous. It takes up. And she also was really little fingers. So of course, depth perception, but it's huge.
- [24:32]
B
I didn't see it.
- [24:33]
A
It kind of looks like Taylor's.
- [24:35]
B
Where do I see it?
- [24:36]
A
Like, in the picture?
- [24:37]
B
I don't know. In the. In her Instagram.
- [24:39]
A
Her Instagram? Yeah.
- [24:40]
B
I'm going, maybe I'll follow her. Maybe she'll do like nice bridal content.
- [24:43]
A
I think I do follow her. You know what I mean? She's just like, kind of mysterious.
- [24:46]
B
She won't stick.
- [24:48]
A
She won't stick. Even though she has it.
- [24:50]
B
She has 40 million. That's what I mean.
- [24:52]
A
And she's very Gen Z. And it's like, if you have got Gen Z, you've got it all.
- [24:55]
B
But she is so gorgeous.
- [24:57]
A
She's really, like, kind of like, like otherworldly looking.
- [25:01]
B
The ring is huge.
- [25:02]
A
Huge. Huge. Very beautiful.
- [25:06]
B
Okay. I love it.
- [25:07]
A
I love it.
- [25:09]
B
She has, like, nice Instagram, you know, it's vibey.
- [25:13]
A
And obviously, like, any football player is great, but like, to get one who's like, on the LA team, like, that's obviously.
- [25:18]
B
Of course you get to live in la.
- [25:19]
A
Right? And like, say, being a celebrity.
- [25:21]
B
Yeah.
- [25:21]
A
A lot of times, like, you have to move to, like, Houston and like, that's just not gonna work for Alex Earl.
- [25:27]
B
I'm wishing you a hearty mazel tov.
- [25:29]
A
Extremely hearty.
- [25:31]
B
To quote a young Turdy Lou. I'm wishing you a hearty mazel tov.
- [25:35]
A
Oh, I was like, when did I say that? Of course, in the iconic bat mitzvah
- [25:39]
B
performance that like a 10.
- [25:40]
A
A hearty mazel tov.
- [25:42]
B
A 10 year old Claudia in a message to her sisters, wish them a party.
- [25:46]
A
Mazel tov. You know, part of being a 10 year old at that time was like going to a million bat mitzvahs and like always being asked to like film a testimonial. Like these days we have these like aesthetic montages that get put together. But back in the day there was a videographer walking around these affairs with a microphone and he would just ask people to like leave a video message to the sweet 16 girl or the bat mitzvah girl. And so, yeah, like I kind of was experienced at that point and I knew exactly what to say.
- [26:10]
B
And it was ancient. And did you feel it, the hardiness of the Maslow 12? I did. And it permeates throughout the evening.
- [26:17]
A
It permeates through the video.
- [26:18]
B
Like you can see, you can feel it. I think even people watching it 20 years later knew that I really meant it could see and that the hardiness was received thousand percent. Are you ready for our next story? A little more model athlete news. Irina Shake and Devin Booker are newly dating and quote, like each other a lot. So word on the street is that Irina and Devin are dating. A source tells People magazine Devin Booker and Irina are dating. It's very new, but they like each other a lot. They were introduced by mutual friends a few months ago and are trying to spend a lot of time together this summer before Devin has to start training for the season. Expect see her at some games. She is very into him.
- [26:57]
A
Okay.
- [26:58]
B
He is 29 and she is 37, I believe.
- [27:04]
A
And how tall is he?
- [27:06]
B
Tall. Yeah.
- [27:07]
A
I don't know. Why, I just get the vibe that she's taller than him.
- [27:09]
B
Oh no, I get the vibe that he's really tall.
- [27:11]
A
Really? Isn't he a point guard which is like, is the shortest one?
- [27:14]
B
No. And he dated Kendall who's super tall too. So like he, he meets. Okay. He's six minimum height. Six five is really tall.
- [27:23]
A
Yeah. Irena Shake. Oh, it's five ten.
- [27:26]
B
Okay. Yeah.
- [27:28]
A
I'm like trying to care, right? And I'm trying to find an angle like why I would care about these two. You know, the. I'm Genuinely, like, at a loss, like,
- [27:42]
B
okay, you know, I don't dislike it. Like, I don't have.
- [27:46]
A
I don't dislike it. I don't, like, like it. Do you know what I mean?
- [27:49]
B
I shake individually. I don't care for either of them, like, so much.
- [27:53]
A
Deeply.
- [27:53]
B
So there's nothing, anything that they could do that, like, would change that, I guess. Unless she was dating, like, then I
- [27:59]
A
guess, like, Devin Booker and Bradley Cooper are like, co parenting, if all goes right.
- [28:03]
B
Yeah.
- [28:04]
A
With Gigi. And I guess that's like her man, her best friend's ex.
- [28:07]
B
Like, yeah, we can make it interesting, I guess. But yeah, I guess if Irina was dating Zac Efron, you know, I might care.
- [28:15]
A
Yeah. Irina also, for me, like, did irreparable damage to her reputation. Just in my mind, when she was
- [28:24]
B
dating Tom Brady and she seemed really desperate.
- [28:28]
A
Yeah. We were talking about it too. Like, how it was just, like, through Page Six, like, the desperation, like, was coming through.
- [28:33]
B
Yeah.
- [28:34]
A
And I don't believe that it ever worked out between them. I don't know if they were ever actually even officially linked, but she was really leaning into it and I just, like, sort of never looked at her the same after that.
- [28:42]
B
Yeah. That's sad because once you get like that smell of desperation on you, like,
- [28:46]
A
you very hard to wash off.
- [28:47]
B
You can't get it off.
- [28:48]
A
Yeah. So she doesn't, like, necessarily do it for me, but wishing her the best.
- [28:55]
B
I don't wish her ill. I hope she doesn't.
- [28:57]
A
I would never wish another woman ill.
- [28:59]
B
I would just say, like, don't make cookies for his sister. That's what. That's the relationship advice I would give you.
- [29:05]
A
No, that was Ben Simmons. But I'm so glad you brought that up just because it serves as a reminder. Reminder that Ben Simmons sister once, like, genuinely made the most evil video of all time for no reason.
- [29:20]
B
And anytime we talk about Devin Booker, and the thing is, you've told me, like, so many times and it just in one ear out the other, I still didn't retain it, but I think it's a good thing. That means that there's not for Devin Booker, there's double the amount of exposure for this story.
- [29:34]
A
For the story. Like, I just miss. I miss that time. Like, when. When that story was being reported. No, that was insane.
- [29:41]
B
That was insane. Do you want to remind everyone just to, like, do our quarterly reminder?
- [29:45]
A
Yeah, like, Devin Booker's sister.
- [29:46]
B
Ben Simmons sister.
- [29:47]
A
Oh, my God. And they're both NBA players. If Devin Booker has a sister, like, I'm genuinely sorry for slandering your name.
- [29:56]
B
You don't definitely don't deserve that.
- [29:57]
A
She's definitely Ben's Simmons sister. Like, one time, I don't know if she was doing, like, a Q A, she was, like, making content on Instagram and decided to, like, share a story about Kendall Jenner. And I think that the way she it. We were about to, like, hear a story where Kendall Jenner was, like, embarrassing or rude or just, like, lame. And what she had said was that, like, Ben Simmons, sorry, Kendall Jenner, like, one time baked cookies for her family
- [30:17]
B
or whatever, and when they were having a game night.
- [30:21]
A
And, like, that was it, like, no,
- [30:22]
B
in the way that she. And they were, like, the worst cookies. And the way that she sliced them was weird. She was, like, leaning into, like, the cucumber.
- [30:27]
A
Right.
- [30:27]
B
Drama.
- [30:28]
A
But all I heard was that, like, someone tried to make you a cookie.
- [30:30]
B
Like, and you're, like, being a bitch about. You're a nasty video.
- [30:33]
A
Like, she was being such a. Like, the definition of A, B, I, T, C, H. And, like, the wind up was that Kendall literally did nothing besides make you a cookie.
- [30:41]
B
Yeah. And you didn't like it.
- [30:42]
A
And the way she told the story, she just, like, thought she had, like, such hot goss. She was like. And it was like, not.
- [30:48]
B
No. And that's what you'll be remembered for, Mrs. Simmons and Kendall will be remembered for a lot more. Are you ready for our next story? More couple news. Olivia Rodrigo and her new man's Julian Cronenbergs were spotted cuddling in the park in New York City. So these two are really off to the races. They were spotted kissing and holding hands and cuddling at the park.
- [31:17]
A
Yeah, I mean, we always, like, this is what we want for our girls. Right? Like a businessman bow.
- [31:22]
B
Yeah.
- [31:23]
A
I will say, like, it's a little boring, you know, Like. No, because consuming and, like, reading about, like, someone whom I don't know.
- [31:30]
B
No, it's. I think for me, it's more so this. Like, of course I worry about, like, the values disparity, but that's for them to worry about. For me, it's like, I feel like once you're reached the top of the mountain and you've dated everyone like that, and when you're ready to settle down, like, that's when you hit up the businessman boat. But she just seems so young that it's like, I just don't know if she's ready for that sort of stability.
- [31:50]
A
She is really young. Although she has, like, seen and experienced a lot in A short period of time. And, like, when you know, you know. Yes. It does feel like the businessman is usually the final stop.
- [32:01]
B
Romantic train. Yeah. So it's like, is this it? And now we, like, sail off into stability. What about the music? What about the songs?
- [32:09]
A
Yes. You know, they say that, like, I guess we're, like, sort of waiting to see this with Taylor because we've only gotten one album since she's been, like, settled down, but, like, does the music suffer?
- [32:19]
B
So I refuse to believe that.
- [32:21]
A
Believe what? No, I didn't say I believe.
- [32:22]
B
No, no, no. You asked me, and so I say I, like, refuse.
- [32:27]
A
Yeah, me too. I think that, like, the life of a showgirl is not a great example of that, but I.
- [32:32]
B
It has nothing to do with her being happy.
- [32:33]
A
Like, I don't think it has to do with, like, having a lack of things to write about or, like, losing your spark once you're single. It has to do with, like, getting caught up, like, in her own fame and exc. It has to do with release some garbage.
- [32:43]
B
The marketing and the format and I. We've been.
- [32:45]
A
Yeah, yeah, but like, music about tortured artists and, like, complex fellas is more usually titillating than, like, a guy who works in finance. Like, what's the next music gonna be about? Like, Google Docs, like, you know.
- [32:59]
B
Yeah, but there are other things to write about, you know, as we said.
- [33:04]
A
Yes.
- [33:04]
B
Other layers. Books and movies, your own life. You could have a child. Yes, yes, of course you could write about that. Stevie Wonder. Isn't she lovely? That's a beautiful song.
- [33:15]
A
It is also interesting how you balance a relationship with somebody who does work a typical 9 to 5 corporate job. Like, you are restricted in the trips you can take. Even though they just got back from, like, a big trip to Iceland.
- [33:26]
B
Maybe he can has, like, a couple remote days. Perhaps he's remote or, like, remote days. Maybe he has flex.
- [33:30]
A
Yeah. Maybe he, like, rolled over his PTO from last year or something.
- [33:33]
B
Yeah, but PTO will run out. Yeah.
- [33:35]
A
No, and you can't just, like, la dee da. Unless you, like, own the company, which, as far as I know, he's like, an analyst, like, a big one, but it.
- [33:41]
B
Yeah. And I don't think, like, his bosses care that he's dating Olivia Rodrigo.
- [33:45]
A
Do you get special treatment at a company, like, when you start dating a celebrity?
- [33:48]
B
I don't think so. Like, I don't think at his level you do.
- [33:51]
A
I wonder. I'm trying to think if I know anyone who's, like, maintained a corporate job and, like, gotten Famous, like, while staying there. A lot of times you just leave. But he's not gonna leave his job because he has a girlfriend.
- [34:02]
B
No, no, no, no, no. They are literally been dating for one week.
- [34:06]
A
Yeah. But they seem to be like, hot and heavy.
- [34:09]
B
Off to the races.
- [34:10]
A
That's short for heavy.
- [34:13]
B
Are you ready for our next story? It's number four.
- [34:15]
A
I'm like, not, you know.

So it is better to build up before you need it. And starting early can make just the whole process feel calm and like you feel proactive or not urgent or stressful. So they have a prenatal which is designed for the not trying yet phase. So it's called the Conception Support Pack and it's for the in between season. So it's not just a generic prenatal. It includes the nutrients that OB's prioritize before conception, like CoQ10, DHA, folate and choline. It was founded by a practicing OBGYN. There is no downside to starting a prenatal early. It functions pretty much as just like a high quality daily multivitamin which all women should be on.

B
know if you saw yesterday, Michaela Narrow finalized her divorce.
- [38:27]
A
Yes. She was get ready with me for divorce court. And she just, like, didn't know if she was going to be granted the divorce today. She's like, if I'm not, like, I'll literally call myself. And she kind of left us all waiting. She went to court and then came out with a shirt that said officially diversed. And then she, like, went out drinking and shopping and drugging. No kidding. And she bought, honestly, one of the most insane Van Cleef bracelets I've ever seen in my life. And then she also went to Cartier. She bought a ring, and then she had drinks and cocktails and she must have spent like, $100,000. Like, it was insane.
- [39:00]
B
And like, what's the big deal with her divorce?
- [39:02]
A
Like, like, so people don't really know because he is completely offline, but they found, like, his secret Twitter account where he, like, tweeted about her twice and then made it private. But what we knew initially was that we knew that he was, like, in recovery from addiction. Like, what? She talked about it a lot when they were happily married. And then like a. A year went on. Like, he was like, kind of like Mia and. And she ended up sharing like, a year later that he had, you know, know, relapse. Sorry, I couldn't remember the word. And it's just been, like, so hard for her. He's been, like, in and out of, like, coming home and. And they had made it seem like maybe they were going to continue working. She didn't say anything about the state of the marriage, just, like, that's what was going on and, like, why she's been, like, making these videos about how she's just, like, struggling, but she never told us with what. And then a couple of months later, she announced she was getting divorced. And I don't believe they had a prenup and they didn't have children, which makes it like, I think a little bit shorter of a process because you don't have to deal with custody. I don't know why she thought she wouldn't divorced. And I don't think he was like really trying to take anything from her, as far as I know.
- [40:06]
B
Right.
- [40:07]
A
Because she seemed pretty happy with the outcome.
- [40:08]
B
And I feel like, wouldn't she tell everyone if he was? Because, like, they don't have kids together and she shares a lot. So it's like. Yeah, no, And I think also he's a slime ball.
- [40:16]
A
If you, like, get divorced and like he takes you for, you know, for financially, for a ride, I don't think you leave divorce court and buy a Van Cleef bracelet. You know what I mean?
- [40:24]
B
Right. So that's why it's like. Even though I saw her divorce was finalized, that just doesn't feel like major news. Like, without kids, it's like, so you got divorced.
- [40:32]
A
Like, it's just like official. Like she's free of him. And I guess she.
- [40:34]
B
And she already has a new man. Yeah.
- [40:36]
A
I think maybe now she.
- [40:36]
B
I wasn't worried about what happened next.
- [40:39]
A
Yeah. For her. Yeah.
- [40:40]
B
But I'm happy for her. I always will support her in all endeavors. Including her divorces.
- [40:45]
A
Including her divorces. Hopefully this is the one.
- [40:47]
B
Yeah, hopefully it's the one. Our next story, some box office news. The Odyssey is taking over the world.
- [40:53]
A
Oh, you're gonna say he's tanking.
- [40:55]
B
No. The Odyssey is going to pass Oppenheimer's lifetime box office in 13 days. Days. So it took Oppenheimer 595 days to final at just over $330 million. And it's taking the Odyssey just 13 days to outpace.
- [41:11]
A
Wow. And Oppenheimer was like such a big deal.
- [41:14]
B
Yeah, it was Barb and Heimer.
- [41:16]
A
Yeah. I mean, it does help that there's like no other movies. Actually, Spider man, like, is Spider Man. Yeah. That's like the big movie right now
- [41:22]
B
with Tom and Zendaya, who are also
- [41:24]
A
both in the Odyssey.
- [41:26]
B
Got it.
- [41:27]
A
Yeah. It's kind of like a big week for them.
- [41:28]
B
Got it. Well, yeah, no, everyone's talking about the Odyssey. We're gonna see it.
- [41:31]
A
We are gon it because we just found out that there's an IMAX theater in the Hamptons.
- [41:34]
B
Like, we will go and we're excited and I've heard really good things.
- [41:38]
A
Yes. I think at the end of the day, like, if it's good, it's good. And I've heard that it's very good. Although I saw that the woman who translated, who was, like, responsible for the modern translation of the Odyssey.
- [41:47]
B
Oh, she's actually.
- [41:47]
A
She's, like, reading it to Phil.
- [41:48]
B
She thinks it's bad.
- [41:49]
A
I don't know her. I imagine she's, like, super smart if she was tasked with a modern translation. But it's, like, I'm not taking her word for it.
- [41:56]
B
And I'm sure she's very close to the text, and I'm sure really, like, anything that was done, she wouldn't have liked. Yeah, because nothing's perfect, but, like, for just, like, lay people. Like, like, us. If it's, you know, the Odyssey, great.
- [42:06]
A
Dumb question. What are they translating it from? Greek.
- [42:09]
B
Greek? Yeah, I think Latin.
- [42:11]
A
But isn't it about, like, Greek gods? Like, I don't even know.
- [42:14]
B
But isn't Latin, like, the language?
- [42:16]
A
I'm scared to see the Odyssey because I don't think that I'm gonna understand anything. And, like, when I don't understand something, like, I just start hating it, and then I'm just gonna be, like, a hater. And I don't want to be a hater. I'm just, like, afraid that I'm genuinely not, like, intellectually smart enough for it.
- [42:27]
B
It's made for the masses, proven by the fact that the masses are going to see it. That's not a takeaway people are having. So I think you need to have some more belief in yourself. Okay, I don't like this negative self talk.
- [42:37]
A
What kind of snacks are we gonna get? I'm, like, so excited.
- [42:38]
B
Oh, I need popcorn. Like, with a little bit of, like, chocolatey, like, sprinkled throughout the popcorn.
- [42:43]
A
And, like, the biggest soda you've ever seen in your whole life.
- [42:46]
B
I can't drink soda anymore. I went so long without drinking it. Diet Coke then. Now it tastes weird to me.
- [42:53]
A
I've never experienced that.
- [42:54]
B
I know.
- [42:55]
A
And I, like, went, really?
- [42:56]
B
So never quit.
- [42:57]
A
I went really. I couldn't quit, like, but I did. Now that I drink so much soda that I. I'm shocked at the fact that I actually cut back a lot when I was pregnant. Pregnant. Not in the first trimester. Like, I was just trying to survive. But second and third, I maxed to, like, three or four a week, which, like, I was having three or four a day. I'm so proud of myself. That just proves, like, how much I, like, love my family, because that's insane.
- [43:15]
B
I can't.
- [43:16]
A
I can't imagine ever doing that again.
- [43:17]
B
No, I know. No, I went cold turkey, and now, like, it used to be, like, when I would go out to dinner, like, instead of ordering, like, a cocktail, like, I got a soda. And now I'm like, yuck.
- [43:25]
A
Oh, my God. No, it's.
- [43:26]
B
I can only drink Sparkle Megan water.
- [43:29]
A
It's seriously so delicious.
- [43:30]
B
Like, Like, I know. I'm actually, like, not happy about it.
- [43:33]
A
Yeah, well, why don't you try, like,
- [43:34]
B
a Pepsi or, like, retraining myself? Like, yeah, exposure.
- [43:38]
A
Your husband loves soda. Like, you have so many sodas.
- [43:41]
B
Have his soda. Yeah.
- [43:43]
A
I should kind of need to figure it out.
- [43:44]
B
Exposure therapy. But the thing is, like, it's a good thing.
- [43:47]
A
Like, technically, yes, but it's not.
- [43:50]
B
So that's, like, what I'm dealing with.
- [43:52]
A
Yeah, that's.
- [43:52]
B
That's big. Actually, drink Sparkle Water and iced tea. You know, I love an iced tea.
- [43:56]
A
Your husband drinks diet. Right? Right. And that's because he grew up in Texas. But, like, what the hell is that?
- [44:00]
B
I know.
- [44:00]
A
Like, that's insane.
- [44:01]
B
He's, like, stopped doing that around us, though.
- [44:03]
A
Really? I saw it in your fridge the other day.
- [44:04]
B
Like, our fridge here? No, no, no, no, no. So, like, he knows. Bam. So when he's with us, he drinks his green tea. Dr. Pepper.
- [44:12]
A
And he loves Snapple.
- [44:14]
B
And someone's buying all these Frescas.
- [44:17]
A
Someone is buying Fresca. I like Fresca, but I haven't been buying them.
- [44:20]
B
I don't drink Fresca.
- [44:21]
A
You know me these days. I just drink diet. Diet Pepsi.
- [44:24]
B
That's true.
- [44:25]
A
And it's true. I'm not just, like, being, like. I, at one point in time, like, was heavily sponsored by Pepsi, and I still wasn't lying.
- [44:31]
B
And I drink Sparkle Water.
- [44:33]
A
Yeah, of course. I drink Sparkle Water, too.
- [44:35]
B
Water.
- [44:35]
A
I do not drink regular water. Never have, never will.
- [44:39]
B
So, anyways, like, congrats to the Odyssey. Like, I'm really excited to see what everyone's talking about. It's major that they're, like, doing so well in the movies, when movies don't
- [44:45]
A
really do so well, and they're doing so well with the movies, and people are, like, going out of their way to, like, see four four di Maximum, like, theaters.
- [44:51]
B
It's really an event.
- [44:52]
A
Yeah, it's an event.
- [44:53]
B
It's an event.
- [44:54]
A
What are we gonna wear? I need to be, like, really cozy, because it's, like, a long movie.
- [44:58]
B
We're not. We're never not cozy.
- [45:00]
A
No, but, like, I don't want to Wear like pants too tight.
- [45:03]
B
We stay cozy.
- [45:04]
A
Yeah.
- [45:05]
B
Yeah. Our fifth story. But we also have a bonus story. But our fifth story is a little update on like Nantucket Influencer Gate because Dave Portnoy has weighed in on T by the Sea. On T by the Sea.
- [45:17]
A
Pass it. This morning I just like wasn't in the mood.
- [45:18]
B
It was, it was hard because he like had mouse surgery. So he was like talking funny. So you really had to have patience. But he is like the king of Nantucket. I actually just searched like Dave Portnoy Nantucket to like get us roundup of the of what he said. And I saw that when he bought his Nantucket House in 2023, it was the highest price ever bought on Nantucket.
- [45:36]
A
Yeah, I think they've surpassed it since then. Yes, it was a really big deal
- [45:39]
B
when he bought it. But like so King of Nantucket because
- [45:41]
A
he's like New England king.
- [45:42]
B
Like Boston.
- [45:44]
A
Boston. Yeah.
- [45:45]
B
I would also say like king of influencing.
- [45:48]
A
I actually wouldn't say that, but I would say like big commentator on influencer culture.
- [45:52]
B
Big influencer. The big. I'm sorry, he's a big hitter.
- [45:56]
A
He's a person whose opinion, like I wouldn't mind hearing, he's a big hitter
- [45:59]
B
in the world of influence. Agreed. Knows all the influencers, employs all the influencers.
- [46:03]
A
No suppliers.
- [46:04]
B
His take was this. He didn't really have a problem with the no influencer sign. He said it is not about the Paige Lorenz as of today. Then of course he had to throw shade at, you know, her past being
- [46:15]
A
like, maybe what's her past?
- [46:16]
B
I guess he's like, maybe like 10 years ago and she's running around cleat chasing, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. But he was like, yeah, but he was like chasing.
- [46:24]
A
Tommy was the first athlete she dated like slay of the century. I'm sure she like hates this time in her life. But like she's like one of the only people to ever publicly date Morgan Wallen. And I'm sorry, that is like really crazy.
- [46:33]
B
Right? So he was like the page today. Like a wholesome dairy boy. Right? That's so what?
- [46:38]
A
She's not allowed to grow like.
- [46:39]
B
No, no. He was like, that's not who they're talking about. Like this page business owner, whatever. He was like, but, but influencers like Mike something. I think that guy, his handles like it's big. Mike is that Logan Paul's friend? Right, right. He's like, we don't want people like that. We don't want Brianna chicken fry. He was like, we don't want the party influencers. He's like, go. Go to the Hamptons. Like, don't come here to go out. Like, we're in bed by 9 o'. Clock. Maybe taking the chicken box and choice.
- [47:06]
A
There's like one bar on there.
- [47:07]
B
The no influencer sign is about that kind of like party influencer. We don't want party. Party influencers.
- [47:12]
A
But that's. That's actually not true. That's not what the people said.
- [47:15]
B
While he is making a point about the fact that party people shouldn't go to Nantucket. Like, that's a fine point to make. That's. The sign didn't say no and it's not a party store. And I'm sorry it's not a bar.
- [47:25]
A
When the owners clarified what they meant, like, that's actually not at all what they said. I think people on Nantucket do feel that way. Like when rebel rousers come and like stay up late, play music. Yeah, they don't want that. That's a separate conversation to it. That's not what these people meant at all. That's actually.
- [47:38]
B
He's sort of like just giving his own opinion on influencers on Nantucket. Kentucket. And I don't know why he said no chicken fry. Like, doesn't she work for him? She does, but I think he come. She.
- [47:47]
A
He's right.
- [47:48]
B
She commented. What the.
- [47:49]
A
No, but like he said in the context of his argument, like, yeah, she's the perfect example. Like all the content is like staying out all night vaping. She just had like a whole scandal because she was having a high noon in a car while driving. Like, yeah, that's not who they want on Nantucket.
- [48:01]
B
Yeah, he threw out the Bachelders because I guess like Halle.
- [48:05]
A
Well, the Bachelders are Nantucket.
- [48:07]
B
Like he says they're grandfathered in because they.
- [48:09]
A
Their grandfather.
- [48:10]
B
Yeah, they go there. But other than that, the. And he said the ilk of these people is not who they want.
- [48:18]
A
Yeah, but that's like just a separate. That's irrelevant to like what we're talking about.
- [48:22]
B
He's.
- [48:22]
A
Because this has nothing to do with what the sign meant. And the people clarified what they meant by the sign and that's not at all what they said.
- [48:28]
B
Yeah.
- [48:28]
A
So it sounds like Dave doesn't want party people coming to Nantucket.
- [48:30]
B
No, he doesn't want party people.
- [48:31]
A
I would agree. Like, it's. It's like a small fishing town.
- [48:34]
B
Yeah, I get it. Like quiet, quaint. They want to keep it that way. I agree. And I Don't think it's, like, influencers.
- [48:41]
A
There are people who party a lot who are also not influencers. And that's what Paige was saying is, like, there are a lot of, like, finance bros who come and, like, crash boats. The Cut did an article on it, and she gave them, like, a bigger statement. She just kept, like, stating facts. She was like, there are a lot of, like, finance bros who come and, like, cause a lot of ruckus and crush their boats and, like, literally hurt people and drive drunk. And we're not saying no finance, bro. So it's like just judging a group of people based on their job. And then also, the owners of the store, like, also gave statements. They were, like, fighting through this. The journalist, she just keeps. I'm sorry. Everything she says I couldn't agree with,
- [49:12]
B
because every point that everyone makes when they try and follow up what they meant by the sign is a totally fine point. But that's not what the sign said, correct?
- [49:20]
A
No, we're all having good conversations about the sign.
- [49:22]
B
Didn't say no. Hard partying influencers who are going to stream it and encourage other revelers to come.
- [49:26]
A
It would have been funny if they said no ring lights.
- [49:30]
B
Yes.
- [49:31]
A
Because that's, like, a disruptive part of influencer culture, but just banning the entire group of people and people do not agree with us on this. Like, I've seen a lot of discourse in our comment section, and that's fine.
- [49:39]
B
How do you think that makes me feel? You guys, like, seriously, I'm such. Like, I'm. I'm.
- [49:45]
A
I really, like, not an influencer.
- [49:47]
B
I am.
- [49:48]
A
Claudia, you barely post Instagram. What do you mean?
- [49:50]
B
Look, I have huge stories right now.
- [49:51]
A
Right now for, like, the first time in six months.

B
I'm an influencer. How can you say this to me?
- [50:01]
A
Oh, do you want to be an influencer?
- [50:03]
B
I have no. Like, I know everyone who's an influencer. They're like, well, I don't know.
- [50:07]
A
I don't like his word, but I hate that.
- [50:09]
B
I guess that's what it is. Yeah, I'm a proud influencer.
- [50:13]
A
I wouldn't.
- [50:13]
B
It's a dream to be an influencer.
- [50:15]
A
I agree, but I would not categorize you as an influencer.
- [50:17]
B
You guys sound off. I think you might be too close to it.
- [50:19]
A
No, but, like, how do you earn your living?
- [50:21]
B
I have multiple buckets.
- [50:23]
A
But, like, how do you earn Your living.
- [50:24]
B

B
How do you earn your living?

- [50:43]
A
Yeah, but I guess, like, no, actually, I barely post on Instagram these days.
- [50:47]
B
Like, just because you're not posting right now doesn't mean you're not an influencer.
- [50:51]
A
I guess.
- [50:53]
B
I guess I think we're too close to it. But I think, like, zoom out. Like, we're an influencer, and I'm not someone who thinks anything negative about that word. So if someone calls me an influencer, like, I'm like, yeah, right.
- [51:03]
A
Me neither. And the fact that, like, now it has a negative connotation. I'm sorry. Is deeply rooted in misogyny. And Dave, like, really not understanding this conversation at all. It's completely fine. He has no idea, like, what he's talking about.
- [51:12]
B
I think he was also getting mouth surgery in this.
- [51:14]
A
Yeah. And he just wanted to talk about Nantucket because, like, it does involve him, but, like, he doesn't really understand. Like, I. People think, like, it is that serious. People are like, paycheck. Why you get. And she will not let this go.
- [51:24]
B
And it's like, it's not like the bar had a sign. No influencer. So that, like, influencer partying, Right? It's the basket shop.
- [51:31]
A
It's a craft store.
- [51:31]
B
It's a basket shop.
- [51:32]
A
No, I'm sorry. Like, it is that serious. And I'm with Paige. Like, I agree with everything she said,
- [51:37]
B
because it's like, I know you don't think I'm an influencer, but for the sake of this conversation, let's say you are. For the sake. Of course I'm an influencer. I'm on Nantucket, and I love to shop. And I'm so sad if you're. And I take shopping seriously and I'm not a harm to society. And I walk into a store and it said, no influencers.
- [51:52]
A
Let's say I was gonna buy something, and I'm not filming or anything. I'm just, like, purchasing stuff. Cause if I'm an influencer, I'm also, like, a person, and I'm buying stuff, and I saw that sign.
- [51:58]
B
Wait. If I'm an influencer, I'm also a. Like, a person.
- [52:02]
A
But if I saw that sign, I would walk right out. Like, I would not. I would not support financial. It is.
- [52:06]
B
That's what I'm saying.
- [52:07]
A
And then speaking of comments. I did want to say, like, apparently people do have YouTube Premium
- [52:13]
B
in a major way.
- [52:14]
A
I had no idea. And they're like, how do you think we watch the toast?
- [52:16]
B
I just want to say.
- [52:17]
A
Yeah, I want to say that something to that too, because people are like, well, how do you think we watch the toast? Like, ad free. Even if you didn't have YouTube Premium, you would watch the toast ad free. Because we do not monetize our YouTube videos.
- [52:26]
B
We do not expect our sponsors ads on our YouTube videos. So you. You. If you were using YouTube Premium for just us to be ad free, we're all brand free. That's why when we play music, sometimes
- [52:37]
A
we get like dem. We. We. They.
- [52:39]
B
They start like, they put ads on us because, like, they. They can. Yeah, that's why we don't play music because it's actually just harmful to you guys. But you might have YouTube Premium for, like, other videos and podcasts without ads. But just know, it's like, not us.
- [52:52]
A
It's not us. We do not.
- [52:53]
B
We turn ads off on every single video.
- [52:55]
A
We do not generate revenue on you YouTube, which some people would probably think is silly, but it's disrespectful to our
- [52:59]
B
sponsors and our viewers. Yeah, you're welcome.
- [53:03]
A
We don't double.
- [53:03]
B
I just feel like we don't make
- [53:04]
A
a big deal and we don't get enough credit for that.
- [53:05]
B
We don't make a big enough deal about it. Agreed. So that's what's going on in Nucket Bonus. It's a scary time to be an influencer on Nantucket.
- [53:14]
A
I'll say that it's a witch hunt. They're burning all the witches Even if you aren't one. So light me up, light me up, light me up Go ahead and light me. There's a Taylor Swift song for everything. Like, that's insane.
- [53:35]
B
Our. Our bonus story is a headline from Page Six that I just thought you would want to hear about. And it's like a nickelandria bonus because I'm not gonna, like, put them in the fast five again.
- [53:43]
A
And like, we weren't able to rage
- [53:45]
B
bait right yet, but Page Six reports that Alandria Carthen perfects her revenge dress in a slit up to their orange gown after her breakup with Nick. So Alandria posted. She still hasn't, like, spoken about the breakup, but she posted a carousel of her in an orange dress saying, pressure makes diamonds. And Page Six is. Is saying it's a revenge dress. It didn't occur to me, like, because it's a fake relationship.
- [54:09]
A
Like, that there would be any bad
- [54:10]
B
blood and that there would be any sort of, like, residual breakup feelings where, like, these pictures aren't for Nick.
- [54:17]
A
No, they, like, they're just pictures.
- [54:18]
B
Like, they're just.
- [54:20]
A
They're just pictures. Like, there's no revenge.
- [54:24]
B
Bless you.
- [54:26]
A
Like, her old co worker. Like, she doesn't need revenge on her old co worker. I will.
- [54:33]
B
And it's crazy that, like, writers have to, like, write up their pretend. Write up their activity.
- [54:39]
A
Like it's a normal relationship.
- [54:40]
B
Relationship. Right, right. Because, like, she just posted a series of pictures in an outfit, which she does all the time, literally.
- [54:46]
A
It's her job.
- [54:47]
B
She still hasn't spoken about the breakup or anything. So, like, you guys are reading into this and there's nothing to see. Revenge dress.
- [54:55]
A
Maybe it's like, revenge on us. Like, to the. To the truth tellers and the.
- [55:03]
B
And the doubters and the poking holes in the story. Yeah, maybe she's getting revenge on us. She looks amazing.
- [55:10]
A
That's a good caption. Pressure creates diamonds. Like, if she was actually, like, going through, like, a real breakup or, like.
- [55:16]
B
Oh, you think so?
- [55:17]
A
Like, that would be a good mantra.
- [55:20]
B
Yeah, I guess.
- [55:21]
A
Pressure creates diamonds. It's very much like Phoenix rising from the ashes.
- [55:23]
B
I think it's just, like, generic Instagram caption, you know?
- [55:26]
A
Oh, you think it was, like, written by Chad? I kind of like it.
- [55:27]
B
Like, sort of, you know, just like, what's a quip?
- [55:31]
A
Right?
- [55:32]
B
Anyway, so that's what Landra is up to. And she actually hasn't spoken on the split yet, which for people who do
- [55:36]
A
believe in nickelandria, they must be just chomping at the bit. Yeah, that's not cool. No, it's not. Well, that is our show. I hope you guys enjoyed every minute of it. I know I did. I'm wishing you all a hearty mazel to. Thank you. Oh, and you know what? Let's generate some engagement. What do you say?
- [55:56]
B
Oh, yeah, let's do an emoji. It's so fun.
- [55:58]
A
What was the theme of today's episode?
- [56:01]
B
We're sort of, like, themeless.
- [56:03]
A
Maybe a beer? What about your diamond?
- [56:04]
B
What about a beer for Madison beer?
- [56:06]
A
Oh, and because we're two girls who, like, drink beer more so that. Okay, drop the beer emoji in the Instagram photo card or YouTube or Spotify,
- [56:14]
B
wherever you leave comments, find yourself. When you hear this message, wherever you find yourself, the beer energy to sort
- [56:19]
A
of represent that, like, you are obviously happy for Madison Beer, but you're also just like not like other females or
- [56:24]
B
that you are like other females.
- [56:26]
A
