A
Good morning, millennials.
B
Welcome back to the toast and Happy Tuesday, arguably the chewiest Tuesday of all Tuesdays, because today we're choosing the new president and Jackson Clotter. Here to break it all down for you, Steve Kozniacki edition. What's that guy's name?
A
So Steve Wozniak, like, so similar.
B
Like, yes, that's his name. Steve Cornicelli. Like, Alex Cornicelli's brother.
A
Glasses.
B
Steve Trousers and glasses. Yeah.
A
Steve Glass. George Glass.
B
His name is Steve Glass.
A
So, yes, we have sort of done away with the fast five. This is going to be an election day special where we're going to break down everything that's happening county by county.
B
Vote by vote, swing state by swing.
A
State, swing state by swing state. I think that's what everybody wants.
B
You knew about the toast. Put it out of your mind. Today, like, we are breaking down kind of the biggest and baddest things going on in the country. And that is in the King Tree, that's Trump Vance Vs. Harris Walls. Let me tell you, these, like, these duo names don't roll off the tongue. Like, they're kind of.
A
Well, the way you just said it, it was chewy because you threw in a versus.
B
Okay, no, but like, Trump Vance versus the verses. Okay. Trump Vance, Harris Walls. Like, they both just, like, they're chewy. Do you know what I mean?
A
Harris Walls is.
B
It's like a lot of Rs and W's, and then Trump Vance is very consonant heavy. Like Kanye consonant.
A
What about Trump Walls? Harris Vance?
B
Honestly, sounds better.
A
Like, the way I'm saying it and the way you're saying it, like you're making a meal of it.
B
So obviously, we will not be doing that today because we actually value our careers. And so we're just here to get you through the day and honestly congratulate. I was thinking about that on the way over here. Like, it's been a long election season. I feel like it really, like, amped up in January. Like, we have been doing this for a long time. We have made it through. Like, let the chips fall where they may. Like, we're at, like, we're at the inflection point. Like, we made it. It's almost over. And congrats. Congrats, like, for making it through. It's a tough time election season. People become really insufferable, especially if you work, like, in the public sphere. Like, best of luck to you. And we made it through. And honestly, like, I'm proud.
A
Yeah. And we're gonna have a chili to celebrate.
B
Yes. I'M defrosting meat as we speak. I said, ben, get on it. Ben's golfing, so I am forced to make the chili today. So we're screwed. We're screwed. Yeah, we are screwed.
A
You deserve better.
B
Well, Ben's like, I can start the chili when I get home at, like, 4.
A
He should have started it before he had it out for the day. Put it in the crock and let it sit.
B
Yeah. So it'll be an adventure. Turdy's. You know, Turdy's cooking adventures. They're always, you know, fun and exciting. So we'll just see where it takes us.
A
I had wanted to start mine before the toast today, but I just ran out of time. But it's okay. I'll still be. If I start right after the toast and then put it in the crock, like, we'll be on time for dinner time. But it would have been nice to have that behind me.
B
So something major happened to me yesterday. I haven't really spoken about this, like, publicly in a while. I speak about it in my personal life all the time. But as you guys know around, you know, Q1 of this year, I decided to be a woman of my word, which is what we were talking about yesterday, how important it is, and I decided to, you know, set up an encampment outside of Bloomingdale's. I'm one of their biggest customers in their restaurant. I eat there.
A
That's not what I thought. Because what I thought you were gonna say, which is, by the way, like, you missed 10 months sober. I must.
B
Yeah, I know, because I, like, lied when it was 9, and I just, like, moved on.
A
I know, but, like, now it was the time to do it.
B
Yeah, but I had already done it. I posted in feed. I couldn't post twice.
A
Oh, I thought you. I thought you deleted it.
B
No, no, no, no. I just.
A
I thought that's what you were saying because that's what you started in January that you said you were gonna do, and you did it.
B
No, what I started in Q1 is that, like, I said, I would not be supporting this restaurant any longer because I. I'm just, like, tired of eating, you know, food that isn't good. And so I have. I have literally not eaten there once. Not once since I said I'm such a woman of my word. But Shannon was in town yesterday. We wanted, like, a light, swirly lunch. It was just like, the.
A
You have to see the sites, and.
B
It was, like, really just what we needed. We wanted, like, sodas and salads and Wraps. Like, we. That's. So I went. And let me say, I crossed the picket line. So I'm a scab. I'm a scab.
A
We already knew that.
B
Yeah. I'm a big time scab. And it was so good.
A
Like, I don't know, you know, why it was good.
B
I don't know if they were having a good day. Like, I happened to just catch them on a good day because that happens. Or, like, they. Like, that was my impact.
A
No, you needed some distance. Absent makes absence makes the heart grow fonder. Like, when you're eating it every single day. Like, you become accustomed to the taste. And, like, you become more in the weeds as opposed to, like, having it now fresh. You, like, miss the whole experience.
B
No, no, no, no, no. Trust me. Like, I know when my wraps, like, aren't made with love. And, like, yesterday's wrap was made with love. And I always, like, request extra toasted, and they never toast it. But, like, this time, it was, like, there was tangible differences. And I really. I'm not. I'm not saying it's my impact, because it could have just been an off day. Like, and I go back in a couple of days, and it's back to.
A
Yeah.
B
So I'm cautiously optimistic.
A
I think it was a good day. Plus, absence makes the heart grow fonder. And I think if you continue. If you were like, oh, they got their shit together. I'm going to go back every day. You would get to the same place.
B
No, that's, like, actually so, like, offensive and belittling of you. Like, because then that's just, like, assuming that my encampment only began because I got sick of the place. Not like there was an actual flaw in the restaurant.
A
No, no, that's not.
B
Yes. Yes. Because you're like, well, you know, you.
A
I just said there is a flaw in the restaurant, that it's on and off all the time. So you had an on. No, no.
B
You're not understanding. You're not understanding.
A
Okay.
B
It was made with love.
A
I'm glad for you.
B
It was really good. And I was, like. Didn't want to be embarrassed in front of Shannon, like, taking her a restaurant that's full of crap. Like, I think she enjoyed it. We had ice cream, we had wraps. We, like, gossiped for, like, three hours, and then she was leaving.
A
Three hours of gossip. I feel like when you debriefed me, I didn't get, like, three hours worth.
B
Yeah, I was feeling tired.
A
There's things you're hiding from me. Well, and Ben is Keeping you from me.
B
She also, like, she was at my house right before she went to the airport, so she was coordinating, like, her Uber to come pick her up. And, like, literally, she was being, like, kind of like. I mean, I'm like an airport Nazi. Like, I'm always, like, super early. She was just being, like, very relaxed about it. And her flight was out of LaGuardia, which is, like, closest to the city. So I was like, all right, I get it. I mean, she had a checked bag. She was being, like, a little loose, like a little free willy nilly. And she's calling herself an Uber, and she realizes her flight is actually out of jfk, which is, like, double the time away, and she's certainly not going to make it. So much trauma. She ended up getting on a flight out of LaGuardia. Like, she's okay, but, like, kind of chaotic day in my house.
A
Wow.
B
Yeah. Drama. It follows me everywhere.
A
Yeah.
B
Like, these people are obsessed with me. I feel like you don't have, like, a dramatic life.
A
I work hard to make sure that it's not. And I also.
B
Ordinary instead of violent.
A
Exactly. And I don't court drama. Like, some people could. Something could happen to me, and, like, I could make it a dramatic moment, but I don't, because that's not how I. The level that I want to live my life at.
B
Do you think that that's something I do?
A
I actually wasn't thinking of you. But, like, some. I feel like something could happen. Like, people assume, like, the worst intent or someone are like, I'm gonna take it, hair, man. And I'm just like, let the chips fall where they may.
B
I have to tell you, I did not hear one word you just said. Like, sometimes people are like, the girls talk so fast, I don't know what they're saying. And I'm like, you guys can't relate. I actually did not hear one word of an entire sentence that you just said, which you said, sometimes things will happen in your life.
A
No, no, I was. I was rambling.
B
No, but, like, after the ramble, I did not hear sometimes things will happen.
A
And, like, you're like, this is wrong. I'm gonna take manager. Like, when something, like, doesn't go my way, I'm just like, okay. And so it didn't go my way.
B
Yeah.
A
And I maintain my calm.
B
I guess we're different in that sense because I'm a justice seeker. Like, if something is wrong, it should be made right. And especially if I'm the person who's been wronged of Course. So I guess in that sense, I do seek out drama, but I call it. I think of it more as justice than drama.
A
Of all the people that I know, when I think of someone who seeks out drama, like, you're not first on the list.
B
I feel like people are always calling me dramatic.
A
I think you know who's first on the list?
B
Olivia. Yeah. Olivia is a drama queen.
A
Like, Olivia is the drama.
B
Olivia is a storyteller, and it's kind of one of her greatest qualities because she'll tell you something that happened, and, like, it sounds crazy and exciting and. And it actually wasn't like that. But she's really, like, very eloquent in her storytelling abilities, and she makes it all sound so exciting. No.
A
And, like, if the same thing had happened to me, I might not have even noticed it.
B
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. She's perceptive, that Olivia.
A
She's so funny, but she's so the drama.
B
25 packs of gum. 25 packs of gum is like an OG family inside joke. Like, seriously, since we were six and it was like, a huge fight between Olivia and Jackie, like, we were on vacation in Florida. Please tell the story. I know we've said it on this show before, but.
A
And I can never remember it, it's illustrative.
B
It's illustrative of Olivia's flair for the dramatics.
A
We were like young tweens, and we were going for a walk. I think it was probably just the three of us. Maybe Margot was there, but it's not germane to the story. So we went to Walgreens, as one does, and, like, Claudia and I wanted to buy a pack of gum because.
B
Like, we're kids and we're crazy.
A
Yeah. And maybe. Maybe I'll give Olivia a bit of doubt. Maybe we wanted to buy two.
B
One for each of us. One for each of us. That does sound like.
A
Maybe Margot was there and we wanted to go buy three.
B
Yeah.
A
One for each of us.
B
And, like, when we used to go on excursions, like, without our parents, like, Olivia, the way our family was, like, the dynamic, Olivia was automatically in charge. Like, Olivia has always been the boss of us since we were kids, and that was a rule we really respected. So, like, she was given the money, she was given the directions. Like, we were in servitude of Olivia Ashrey.
A
Oh.
B
And when we got back, like, the report would always come in. Like, how did everybody behave? It was always Olivia's responsibility to report back, give the change.
A
So for some reason, we started fighting in Walgreens. I don't know why, but when we got home and Olivia relayed to our parents, like, what went down. She said that Claudia and I wanted to buy 25 packs of gum.
B
And here we are, like, feeling so slandered. Like. Like, it's just so crazy when somebody says something and it's, like, not what happened, you know? And it was just the. The way Jackie in particular, because I would have, like, forgotten about it. Jackie never forgot this moment because it was just, like, really emblematic, if you will, of, like, Olivia's real, like, tendency to jazz it up. Jazz it up.
A
To add color and to add packs of gum.
B
25 packs of gum. That's so classic. Love.
A
Yeah. So anyway, all's to say, I think you operate at a decent level of drums.
B
Okay, thanks.
A
And, like, technically, it was Shannon's drama. I think the issue more so is, like, you making it about you.
B
Yeah. But Shannon was, like, really chill about it. Like, she was like, I'll get in the car, see if I can find another flight. Like, if that's me, I'm sweating.
A
Yeah. But also, there are, like, a number of flights from New York late in the night.
B
Like, it was.
A
Maybe she wanted to sleep over by night.
B
I said, by the way, I'll make the best guest bedroom up. Like, let me know if you don't make it. Yeah.
A
Like, her options were good. No matter how a slice.
B
It's true.
A
I'd be chilled, too.
B
So true.
A
You can't get Ben out of shape about that stuff.
B
Yeah. I guess that's really what you learn the older you get. Like, not to get so bent out of shape over things. Like, that's actually something you have taught me that I'm really trying to implement into my life. Because to me, like, every mountain is a molehill. Like, everything is the biggest, worst, most horrible thing that's ever happened to me. And just sort of, like, letting things roll off your back is such a hard but good quality to have. And I'm really trying to. To become that person.
A
Well, that's good.
B
Like, you literally don't give a fuck about that. Like, most things, except, like, when Jackie freaks, like, you know, it's bad.
A
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, long fuse.
B
Yeah.
A
When it reaches its end, it's over. Run for cover.
B
It's over for you bitches.
A
Yeah, but it's very long views. Very, very long.
B
Very, very long. We also have an endless. We have a great show today. We have stories. Tell me a little bit about them. What are they?
A
Like, they're a little random. Not the greatest elk, but, like, seriously, who's really doing anything today other than, like, voting? Like, really, who's going to post an announcement, make something about them? Like, it's election day. So I just feel like that's inevitable. Question mark.
B
Terrible, but inevitable.
A
It's terrible, but inevitable. Like, of course, last year, last election, presidential Erica Jordi did file for divorce.
B
So we had. And by the way, we were grateful to her for giving us something to talk about. That wasn't.
A
Yeah, that was a gift. But I also. Yeah. So now we have, like, some things that happened yesterday, like, a little something, but nothing major. And that's to be expected because the major news is the election. Get out and vote, if you haven't already. I'm wearing an election sweater.
B
Oh, my God, I'm so jealous. I didn't think of, like, dressing for something swirly or even wearing my sticker.
A
Or even wearing your sticker. I have this American flag sweater from Tucker Knuck. I was going to wear it the other day, and I was like, no, I should save it for election day.
B
Yeah. How do you feel as a redhead about wearing the color red? Because actually, for not my favorite. Right. For your birthday gift, I almost bought something like that was kind of, like, would clash with your coloring.
A
No, no, no. Actually, so much so, I don't own anything red. This was gifted to me from Tucker Nock, and they had a blue one, too that they sent you. And, like, I would have chosen blue, but I'm not complaining. And actually, I think it's, like, fun to change it up. But I was at Wonder Woman for Halloween two nights, and one of my costumes only came with a skirt, not a shirt. You just have to wear a red shirt. And I did not have just a red T shirt. I wound up having to, like, you know that Moschino McDonald's T shirt that I used to wear all the time? Like, if you're an OG fan here, like, you know the shirt, I wore it to death. I turned it inside out, and I wore that because I literally don't own a red anything.
B
That's so funny. There are, like, no colors I avoid. I obviously gravitate more towards, like, black, but I don't, like, stay away from any colors. So many things you have to think about when you're a redhead.
A
It's true. I'm sure if you think hard about it, you. There are colors you avoid.
B
You're like, I wouldn't wear, you know, vomit green. But that's just because, like, it's ugly. Like, if there's a shirt, like, or a blouse or a dress that, like, makes, like, that looks amazing on me, like, I don't care what color it is, you know?
A
Oh, I'm really big on colors. Like, I can love something. And also I. When I love something, I get it in every color, but, like, if it's not my colors.
B
Oh, no. And this, you know, inevitably, inevitably will lead us to the conversation about getting our colors done, which we haven't done, but we should.
A
Yeah, no, I've moved on from it.
B
Oh, she's over.
A
It feels like. It just felt, like, really necessary at one point because everybody was, like, doing side by sides for us and being like, she looks like shit today in this shade of green. Yeah, she should be wearing this shade of green. And now people aren't doing that anymore. So, like, it's not top of mind for me.
B
Well, I actually intentionally wore white today because.
A
To symbolize the white stripes on the flag.
B
No, I wanted to stay away from any colors so as not to, you know, make anybody think I was making an endorsement in a subliminal way. No, actually, I. This clip of me talking on the podcast went viral on TikTok. Somebody else posted it. And I, like, obviously the point of the video is not, like, my looks, but I happen to look, like, really beautiful. I was like, I wonder what I did differently that day. My face, like, looks so, like, light and bright, and I was wearing white. So I was like, maybe I'll try to replicate that. Somebody just, like, took a video of their computer where I was, I guess, a couple of days ago or maybe like, last week. I was saying something and I was.
A
Like, probably four months ago.
B
No, no, I know it was somewhat recently.
A
What were you saying? I'll tell you when it was.
B
No, because I know I was looking at the outfit. I was wearing jeans, and I just decided to wear jeans last week and, like, really regretted it because it was hurting my vagina while I sat here. I was like, what were you saying? I said, I was in the middle of a sentence and I said, oh, wait, I was about to make a joke that was literally going to land me in jail. And the kids loved it on TikTok. And it's like, half a million views.
A
Yeah, it was the day after the cybertruck. Okay.
B
So, yeah, last week. Was I wrong?
A
No, you were right. That's like. That's the whole clip.
B
Yeah. Like, it was just a cute moment of people, like, finally appreciating my sense of humor on TikTok.
A
Like, thank God, I love that.
B
Oh, I also forgot to tell you. We went super viral on TikTok. Like, and we are being accused of being a rage bait podcast. Do you know what that is?
A
Explain. No, but I'm sad. Tell me.
B
Everything is, like, when you clearly say something, like, factually inaccurate or stupid, like, just to bait people with rage. And it was our clip about Lizzo's Halloween costume, because we didn't discuss in the clip that, like, her costume was, like, a reference to a South park joke that was made about her. We don't watch South Park. Like, I actually don't care. And so the comments, like, people are like, seriously, someone's going to come stab us. Like, they're so mad. So it has, like, a million views and all these comments just, rage bait, rage bait. They're mad. Big mad.
A
And it wasn't our clip that went viral because we did from our account. Yeah, that's so funny. I just want to say, like, maybe she did do it because of south park, but I think she might have dressed up as that even without south park, because it's just like, Ozempic and it's pretty obvious. Everyone gets made fun of on South Park. They don't make it into a Halloween costume. Maybe she said some. She probably said some. If everyone's yelling about it, she probably said somewhere, I'm doing this because of South Park. But, like, the story works even without South Park. Sorry.
B
The more I think about it, the more I can't believe that you, like, wore that sweater and didn't tell me to wear mine. Like, I didn't realize we had the same exact sweater. Like, it would have been so you don't think. Dopey. Oh, my God. What's more American than matching American flag sweater? It's like, I can't. I'm so mad at myself for not even thinking about it.
A
I'm sorry.
B
How cute would we have been?
A
We would have been so cute and so American.
B
Oh, sorry, we forgot to open the show. God bless America. Land that I love Stand beside her and guide her through the night no, through the light.
A
From the night through the night with.
B
The light from above from the mountains to the prairies to the ocean wide with foam God bless America My home sweet home. God bless America. My home sweet home. I fucking love that song.
A
Me too. All of the American anthems really slay the house down. Boots. I have a fun game for us to play.
B
Okay. Oh, my God, you have a game.
A
It's a fusion of, like, Toast Games X Election day. So we're going to predict the election outcome right now.
B
Okay.
A
By playing our heart game. So right now we're going to make a heart. If we can make a heart, that means that Kamala will win, but then we'll do it again for Trump.
B
Okay. Okay. And then it's a tie if we both get it. And by the way, what if we don't get it for either of them?
A
Well, then we didn't predict the election.
B
Okay. And don't forget, we did predict the super bowl that one year. So. Okay, ready? Three. Like, just place your hand and three, two, two, one.
A
This will tell you if Kamala will win.
B
Okay. Like, I honestly, I kind of slayed that one. It felt really right.
A
Okay. Now we'll see if Trump will win, and if they both get it, then there could be, like, a tie, and.
B
Then we will find out for weeks.
A
But there could be a tie anyway. Like, that could happen. Okay, Ready? Yeah. Electoral College. If the numbers shake out that way.
B
I feel like there's no way that they could.
A
No.
B
Like, you're telling me the elect the electoral college didn't think that through.
A
There's processes for if there's a tie, but it could happen.
B
So Selena Meyer, by the way, it's so Selena Meyer. Okay, ready and trump. Three, two, one.
A
I do think the outcome will be different because you're doing something different right now.
B
Am I?
A
You seem like first anyways. Like, so either one of them, or they're both probably wrong.
B
I would bet that they're both wrong.
A
So there you have it. Not to spoil the evening for you.
B
Should we also flip a coin? Heads for Kamala, tails for Trump.
A
I don't have a coin in here.
B
Me neither. Who the has a coin these days? Actually, I have, like, a car, a. A coin jar in my home. Because, like, I never know what to do with, like, random coins I find in, like, Ben's pants. So I started a jar. There's, like, $6 in there now.
A
Nice.
B
Yeah. Also, like, I find random bills in my house, like, Euros, and from, like, the three times I've ever traveled. I don't know.
A
She travels. Yeah. International.
B
And I don't know what to do with it. So it's in that jar, too. It's kind of like a weird jar.
A
You could take it all to the bank one day and, like, they can get it.
B
Yeah, I could. I definitely could.
A
So Zach just text me. He's going to the market. You know what? Ground chicken. I was going to make a beef chili, but I didn't want to.
B
Yeah, I'm doing ground chicken chili today. One is what I had, but I was what I was looking for. Like, it was my number one choice. I'm.
A
Chicken is the best.
B
Because Ben saw our Instagram post yesterday, said, oh, we're making chili tomorrow. I said, yeah, we are. And he was like. He had to, like, kind of sit me down. I think he thought I was going to be adversarial. And he was like, we have to talk to Jackie. Like, enough with this, like, meat alternative turkey. Ben hates ground, by the way.
A
I'm so off of turkey.
B
Me too.
A
And you know what it's from. Remember that night that we cook turkey lettuce lettuce wraps at my house?
B
Jackie, that ruined ground turkey for me. Can we talk about how disgusting those were?
A
It was in the spring when Claudia was here. She makes these lettuce wraps with Ben. So we made it. I only had turkey. So we did ground turkey. And it was, like, so yucky.
B
It was so yucky.
A
It was, like, so turkey, by the.
B
Way, we might as well have seriously been eating a live turkey. Like, that's how turkey it tasted. I'm so glad that because, like, we all were eating it. We're like, oh, it's good. Like, we didn't want to, like, acknowledge that this thing we all collectively spent all day on was fucking disgusting. But when we went upstairs, Ben was like, that was fucking disgusting. I'm like, listen, you can't, like, be rude. Somebody is cooking for us.
A
Like, the thing is, it was the turkey.
B
It was the turkey. It was the turkey of it all.
A
And before that, I used to make turkey ground turkey all the time. It's weirdly, like, always. They always have kosher ground turkey at my grocery store. So it's really accessible for me. Like, whenever I would make meatballs, I'd make them with the ground turkey turkey. And I had a couple of, like, bad turkey incidents in the last few months. And I actually made ground turkey last night because I had it in my fridge because it's accessible at the grocery store. And I was gonna put in my chili for tonight, and I was like, I don't want chili. So I made this Weight Watchers, okay, Turkey skillet.
B
So when I was on Weight Watchers, they really push ground turkey because it's zero points. And, like, I'm such a big portion eater. Like, when I was, like, I was abusing the Weight Watcher system by serious having, like, 65 turkey meatballs. But they're actually not good. That's why it's free points.
A
Just like, so turkey.
B
So turkey. And it's like, you understand now because at first, when I was first introduced to it, like, I must have been eating something that was made really well, because I was like, wow. If I could just swap out everything I eat for ground turkey, like, all my tacos and my chili, like, I'll be thin. Oh, my God. It's not that simple. It's disgusting.
A
So last night I had a taco salad with turkey, and it was fine, but, like, I don't want a turkey chili. I have. I took out two packs of ground beef, and they're defrosted. I was going to do a beef chili. I don't love a beef chili. It's just like a little fatty.
B
Oh, it's just a little beef for me is a little heavy. Like, I'm at this age of this kind of era in my life, and ground meat is my favorite thing to have for dinner.
A
Like, oh, my gosh.
B
It's like meat.
A
I need to get a tacos grinder.
B
Yeah, we got one. The attachment to the KitchenAid. Like, ground meat is my favorite, you know, meat of choice. And I've really, like, the last year. Ground chicken is so underrated.
A
Ground chicken is the best of the ground. So Zach is going to get me ground chicken, and now we'll be having chicken chili. And if you are following my chili recipe, if it's not too late, swap out the ground turkey. Like, it's so turkey.
B
It's so turkey. Also, Taylor Strecker makes her chicken chili with rotisserie chicken. So it's, like, precooked, and it, like, saves so much time.
A
That's another thing.
B
And she shreds it up, and it's actually really good. And hers is a Weight Watchers. It's a Weight Watchers recipe. And, you know, chicken breast, like, white meat on a rotisserie is zero points to. And it's so good.
A
By the way, I'd like to challenge you. If you're cooking chili today, like, why not follow my recipe?
B
I am.
A
Oh, you are? Yeah, of course.
B
Except Ben was like, you can't make it with turkey. I said I would never.
A
Yeah, yeah. Oh, okay. But you've never, like, followed my chili recipe, so I'm excited.
B
Yeah. I don't, like, really follow recipes in general, so don't be offended that I. That I, like, avoided yours.
A
But, like, that way we can ensure success.
B
Yeah.
A
And cook it in the crusade and then move it to the crock that way.
B
No, I'm just Leaving it in the crusade.
A
Okay, but remember to stir.
B
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Jobs.
A
I'm using your crock pot. You got me.
B
I got Jackie. Such a nice gift. Like a sickening crock pot from Laura Ashley. It kind of. It's Laura Ashley for Dolce and Gabbana. It literally looks like Dolce Gabbana. It's sick.
A
It's so. I. I like, if you. Even if you had got me, like, a Dolce and Gabbana, like, Sicily printed crock pot, like, this one's more beautiful.
B
It's really gorgeous. Except for the Laura Ashley logo, but we'll just. We'll scuff it out.
A
I don't know Laura Ashley. I actually, I posted my wallpaper yesterday and to rave reviews. Everyone's really like it. But some people were like, this is so Laura Ashley. I'm like, I don't know her, but she sounds fabulous.
B
There's nothing wrong with her or her comedy. Her logo is huge. Like, it literally takes up, like, too much of the crock pot.
A
But, like, I don't know Laura Ashley.
B
I. Do you know her in a personal sense? No, no.
A
Like, what's your association with her?
B
Okay. My association with her is, like, lots of commercials in Florida. I feel like when we used to, like, sit on those, like, we should be friends and those big lazy boy recliners at Grammy and Pop's house, like, and she was always watching the Food Network, I feel like I would see like a million Laura Ashley commercials.
A
And what was Laura selling?
B
Oh, it's very like, Martha. It's like really pretty, but reasonably priced homewares.
A
Interesting. And when I think of Laura actually, like, does she have stores on the highway, like, next to Rooms to go?
B
It definitely gives that sort of energy. Although I don't know if she's in the brick and mortar space, because if.
A
She has a big store on the highway, like, I gotta go.
B
Yeah, let me zora Ashley store locator. By the way, Laura, she's crushing it. Selling on Wayfair, Macy's, Laura Ashley usa. Yeah, they have stores. Oh, but they sell, like, in a lot of other stores, like Bed, Bath and Beyond.
A
Yeah. Let me see if she has a store near me. I think I gotta go support my girl.
B
Yes, they have stores and they have a website. Yeah. It's also, I feel like one of, like, the early 2000s brands that I didn't know was still around.
A
Okay, so it's Ashley store.
B
Oh, Ashley Home Furniture. Is that she rebranded? No. Is that different?
A
I. I don't know if it's different, but that's why I think she has stores on the highway. So you have Ashley, but is Ashley. Laura Ashley? Sound up in the comments. I'm not rage baiting.
B
We're not rage baiting. We're just genuinely asking questions.
A
Do you find that you maybe rage bait sometimes?
B
No. Like, I avoid any sort of negative backlash. Like, like, like the plague. Like I try and sit here every day and just be so likable and amenable and wonderful. I would never.
A
Yeah. Do you? I think people, people definitely think that. I do. And even when I say that I don't, they, like wouldn't believe me. I say what's on my heart, you know, I say my truth.
B
Tell her.
A
I don't say anything, like for the clicks. I wish I did.
B
Yeah, I wish you did too.
A
Yeah. I don't like, say a hot take. Like just to say it.
B
No. My God.
A
Just to have something new to say.
B
Like trust and believe.
A
It's hard to say.
B
She really feels this way.
A
You could get burnt.
B
Of course you can.
A
Who would want it?
B
Ah, it's hot.
A
I'd stick with the lukewarm takes if that's what's on my heart. But it's not.
B
It's not. I've just looked at the time. I do feel like we like kind of have a little bit of a job to do.
A

A
Slash turd.
B
What can I say? Except yada. Welcome.
A
Our first story.
B
Oh, by the way, we don't have to, we must. I got the ad break in so like we're good if you want to chit chat about anything else.
A
So much pressure.
B
Is this about Jason Kelsey apologizing? I felt sick watching it.
A
No, literally, it's about Jason Kelsey apologizing and you how you felt sick watching it.
B
Okay, so let's talk about it.
A
Jason Kelsey expresses remorse over heated moment. He slammed students phone to the ground. So as predicted, Jason Kelsey issued an apology about the slur that he used in response to the slur that was used in the phone slamming. And the apology was not the tone that I expected. So he is expressing remorse for the incident. He said, quote, listen, I'm not happy with anything that took place. I'm not proud of it. In a heated moment, I chose to greet hate with hate. And I just don't think that's a productive thing. I really don't. I don't think that it leads to discourse and is the right way to go about things. He said he fell down to a level that he shouldn't have. The bottom line is I try to live my life by the golden rule. That's what I've always been taught. I try to treat people with common decency and respect and I'm going to keep doing that moving forward. Even though I fell short this week, I'm going to do that. Moving to do that.
B
Like if I thought Jason Kelsey had actually done something wrong, this is actually an amazing apology. Like I felt like he really like the remorse came through. It wasn't cookie cutter at all. I'm listening and learning.
A
And he definitely didn't have a script. He probably intentionally asked for no script and just wanted it to come from the heart. So he actually I read it pretty quickly but he says it very slowly. He's like thinking of and he's clearly emotional.
B
Like it seemed so genuine. Like, and I, I understand because the more I even thought about it how we were talking about yesterday, how about like the Kelsey brothers are like weirdly these like you know, athletes but they're so brand safe and they have the cereal and the TV shows and I forget he also has this huge ESPN contract and that's where he made the apology. So I understand why he did it. I'm sure it was he Was told that he has to for a multitude of reasons. I don't think he did anything wrong. I don't think Jason Kelce is a homophobe whatsoever. I think he's a king. I'm glad he just addressed it. I'm glad they didn't like, take him off the air for a week. Like, I'm glad he was able to. It's over now. Like, it is over. Yeah. I really don't think there's like a long. Any long lasting damage done to his career. I don't think this changes the way people see him. If he's, you know, people very favorably. People like him. Like, it's just. I was watching. I'm like, there are people who do fucking terrible things and never apologize. Like, I can't.
A
Right. Like, it just for him to have to debase himself like this when we both agree. And I think a lot of people agree, like, not we know him, nothing terrible and we trust he's so mad at himself. And it's like, forgive yourself, Jason. You know, I just feel like the apology was like, so big.
B
Yeah.
A
And the crime was not the biggest.
B
No. And what's the lesson here? Right. I think, of course he was the lesson.
A
What is the takeaway? Don't mess with Jason when he's on a breakaway.
B
Like, the lesson I think for him is like, you know, don't greet hate with hate. For me, the lesson is he needs to start acting like a real celebrity and, like, start taking advantage of like underground tunnels and security guards. Like, every time I see him, he's like walking with regular people in big crowds at sporting events, like sitting in the stands. Stop it. You're literally so famous.
A
I know, but that's really why people love.
B
I know.
A
Goes to the tailgates and he does the keg stands. Like, if he starts acting and getting like a diva service, like, then he doesn't have that Jason Kelsey factor. And I think people will still love him, but, like, it takes away from. That's like his.
B
But somebody's got a great.
A
I know. I don't know.
B
And he was emceeing or whatever Travis's game because Monday Night Football was last night. Travis team played the Buccaneers.
A
Leads to our next story.
B
They are still undefeated.
A
The Buccaneers or the Travis's?
B
The Travis's.
A
Well, that does lead into our next story because Taylor was at the game. Taylor is having a big week. She is completed her eras US Leg.
B
Yes.
A
And she has one more show, one more city, one more weekend of eras in Vancouver. Do you know that Snitch is trying.
B
To go to that it's in Toronto. Which makes Snitch going a lot less crazy because it's a 45 minute flight and Vancouver is like a six hour flight. Totally, totally, totally, totally.
A
Rage bait.
B
Rage, rage bait. Dragon doesn't respect Canada. I didn't know that. But it makes sense. I think a lot of people like last ditch effort, especially from the Northeast. Like it's really easy to get to Toronto from lots of part.
A
Like I guess it would be like going to Boston. I think I'll go to Boston.
B
It's seriously like going to Boston with.
A
And we know that Margot would just go to Boston on a dime.
B
A thousand percent. Is it this weekend?
A
No, Margo's here. Margot's coming here today. Did you guys know?
B
Right, right, right, right. She's coming to see her sister.
A
She's coming to see me. I'm so excited. So I also. The chili needs to be great because like, yeah. It's the first thing she's going to taste when she arrives.
B
It's so true.
A
So I think it's next weekend. And then she was also. I got all this from the redhead she. We recorded yesterday. So now I know everything that's going on with her. She's also trying to go to Vegas for Adele's last show.
B
Okay.
A
Did you know that about her?
B
Didn't. But I know she's seen the ERAS tour a couple of times and I would recommend if she's gonna like make a last ditch ever. She should go to Vegas like to see Adele like it is. And she's spectacular.
A
Adele era. She's really been appreciating Adele now. I tried to say on the episode like, I don't think you need to go to Toronto for eras. But I also didn't want to enable.
B
Yeah.
A
I didn't want to go there. Like I didn't want to bring.
B
She didn't want to rage bait that.
A
Community on the Redheads. Like seriously, the most non controversial podcast of all time.
B
Actually, I. I don't know that to be true. I feel like the redheads are always like making crazy controversies. I'm always reading about it.
A
I know. Well, if you listen to the Reds, you know, we get a little crazy. But on our face, like we're just.
B
Reading the Read Heads.
A
The Read Heads. You guys should check out the Redheads. Claudia, you have to read the book that we were.
B
I know. I'm gonna choose it for my own book club.
A
It was so fantastic. We had a really good time. On the episode. It drops Thursday. But anyways, also say Taylor's eras us done one more weekend of eras. Like, what are we thinking, fam?
B
What are. What are we thinking? Here's what I'm thinking. Like, and I'm at this point, I have no proof, and I actually don't think that this is what's gonna happen. But, like, I actually needed to. I need these two to get Mar. Like, it's. You know, she's in the suite with Andrea and Mama Kel. Like, these people. Jason's over here putting his entire career on the line defending her. Like, they're a family. And what do families do? They get married.
A
Family.
B
I grow interest. No, obviously, I'm very toxic. Like, and I'm more traditional, so I'm like, they need to get married and have babies. Like, whatever. And maybe that's not Taylor's journey. And I apologize for putting, like, my expectations on her, but that's what I would like to see happen. Like, she did this amazing thing. She's the most successful person in the world. Like, yes. She could keep, like, hustling very like, Kim Kardashian. I want to do this and that and that. Or you could just, like, bloom where you're planted. You have this amazing boyfriend who's so successful in his own right. Things seem to be going so well. Your families blend so well together. You just came off this huge feat. You have the admiration, love, and respect of everyone on the globe. Like, invest in yourself. Take time, have a be. If that's what you want. If that's what you want, obviously. But I do feel like that's what she wants. She's still, like, traditional, hopeless romantic.
A
I mean, every song she's ever written is about love and romance and a traditional love story. So to think that, like, that that's not what she wants. Like, everything she's ever said is pointed us towards, like, yeah. So I'm assuming then comes a baby in the baby carriage.
B
So I'm making assumptions for sure, based on, like, just information. But that's what we do what she wants. And I would just love to see her, like, slow down a little bit and, like, invest in her personal life and just, like, be with Travis and get married and hang out with her family. Like, being on tour, especially a tour of this size and, like, you know, range, like, whether she was in China, Shanghai, or. No, she wasn't in Shanghai. She was in, like, Singapore. Like, she went everywhere. Like, the far. Australia, the farthest depths. Just, like, lay. Go to Travis's games. Live in Kansas City, hang out with Brit. Like, I'm all about, like, slowing down.
A
I agree. I do think that perhaps the surrogate is due in January. Oh.
B
Jackie is convinced that, like, they already have a baby on the way and.
A
Yeah, because what I saw at eras, like, when she said, I'm having his baby. No, I'm not, Archer. So the no, I'm not means, like, the surrogates having it.
B
Oh, okay. Okay.
A
Archer means that it's Travis's. Of course I'm having his baby. Because, like, she will have his baby, but she's not having his baby.
B
And the only real, like, proof. Not proof, or, like, support for this theory that I have. And it's just not a theory. It's more of, like, my hopes and wishes, is that, like, she very well could have kept doing this tour. Why did she have to end it like she is? This is, like, the third leg she's announced. Do another one. Like, do a flip, everybody. You could sell it and you could keep going, and you could, but she didn't. So she obviously wanted to make space for, like, maybe, you know, writing new music and recording new music is a great job to have when you're settled down. You just. She has a studio in every house that she lives in. Like. Like, you don't have to be traveling and being so crazy. Like, I don't know.
A
I just think the reason why I think it's like, a surrogate because if she were to be getting pregnant, then she could only, like, start the process in December. And it takes, like, a while and then to be pregnant and, like, by the time she actually has maybe shelf to go back to work, doesn't she want to be home with her baby? She could start in January when the surrogate is due.
B
No, I'm telling you, I actually don't think that they would go the surrogate route. Honestly, Travis is such, like, a physical person, you know, I feel like he would just knock her up, you know?
A
Yes.
B
But I don't know if this conversation is so offensive or not, but here's the thing.
A
We're women. We're the ones who would be offended by it. Right.
B
So true.
A
And, like, Taylor could. Maybe she's the only one who could be offended, but, like, she's doing okay, you know?
B
Yeah.
A
And she's.
B
As far as I know, she doesn't listen. So we're good. We've.
A
It's not like Kylie with the manicure and the trees. Like, there's no murmurings that Taylor's ever heard the Show.
B
So, like, we're safe.
A
A tree falls in the wood, but no one hears it. Is it offensive?
B
No, no, it's a good point. And I think Taylor, if she ever heard it, would know, like, we're speaking out of love and, like, just sheer desperation. Like, I would love this journey. I just. I really want them to get married. And I don't need, like, pictures. You don't need a Vogue wedding? Like, I just want them to be married. Like, I want them. I love them.
A
I don't. I think that a baby is more possible than a marriage. I think marriage is just really complicated legally, when you're, like, tailored, successful.
B
Yes.
A
So I can do without that. But I would love for them to start a family. Sorry I said it.
B
I said I would just love for them to settle down. Whatever that means for them. Yeah, I'm having his baby.
A
Because also Travis has said plain as day, he wants a family. So if she doesn't, then that would mean that they probably won't make it long term. Right.
B
Because that's like an actual deal breaker for people. No matter how great a relationship is, if one wants kids and the other doesn't, and neither are willing to budge.
A
And neither, I guess people could change their minds, but if they're like, if they're not going to budge, then they shouldn't be together and they shouldn't budge. Because you deserve to have the life that you want.
B
Of course. No. And I do think when you're dating past a certain age, like, you kind of address that almost immediately, because to be in an almost two year long relationship with somebody who you have this huge disagreement on, like, kind of a deal breaker, it's really. It's not a relationship worth pursuing at that point. So I think that they're probably on the same page.
A
Yeah, yeah, they've had this conversation. Because we know that he wants kids. That would ergo mean if A equals B, B equals C. Taylor wants kids.
B
No, I'm obsessed. How many babies?
A
And these are the kinds of conversations we're gonna have on election day when there's not much more to talk about.
B
It's so true. We're just like avoiding landmines. We're just. We're gonna guess when. When Taylor Swift is having her first baby.
A
When is the surrogate due?
B
And like, what do you think the responsibility of being Taylor Swift's surrogate is? Because I always felt that, like, with Kim Kardashian and she had talked a lot about the surrogacy process, and I don't Know, they never put her on the show, but, like, we knew so much about her, and that's a big responsibility. Being a surrogate is, like, the most big there could be.
A
I wonder if surrogacy is legal in Missouri.
B
Oh, right. There's a lot of litigious policies because.
A
If, like, a lot of people go to California to do it because they have really lax policies around surrogacy. But if.
B
Yeah. And actually, like, up until last year, you couldn't even do it in New York. I remember Andy Coleman was always advocating for that because he had two babies via surrogates. And I think he also went to.
A
California because I was gonna say, wherever she's spending a lot of time, is.
B
It on the ballot this year?
A
No, no, no.
B
Why'd you guess?
A
Because if. If she had been going to LA a lot, I'd say, oh, the surrogates in la and she. Surrogacy is legal in Missouri.
B
Got it.
A
And that's why she's, like, happy to go to Missouri. And they got the new house with the wing for the surrogate Jagg.
B
I'm telling you, I don't think. I mean, there's a million reasons why someone would have a surrogate, but I don't. I don't see. I think for most people, it's like, it's not your first choice. Right. It's like just saying you're kind of left with no.
A
I. I don't think time is very precious. This shaves, like, a whole year off the process.
B
Right, right, right.
A
Something to think about.
B
And I also feel like becoming a billionaire was something that was really important to Taylor. Like, you know, these milestones, certain things, like, are oddly important to her. And you think, like, well, if that was me, I wouldn't care. But she cares about album of the year. She cares. And I think she cares about being, like, the first woman billionaire solely for music. And she did just recently cross that threshold. So it's like everything she's really ever wanted has come true. And where do you go from there? It's kind of like when Kylie got pregnant, it was like, what else was she gonna do? She was a billionaire. She had everything she ever wanted. She was the top of the game, biggest celebrity, really. What else do you. What can you do after that except just, like, settle down and, like, settle into it? That's why it was, like, so crazy when Kylie got pregnant. But now, in retrospect, like, it really wasn't like, she was, what, 20?
A
No, it was so crazy.
B
But really, what else Was she gonna do like she. There was nothing to do. She was. Had already done everything.
A
Yeah.
B
You know.
A
Are you ready for our next story?
B
Number three?
A
Yeah. Another lady in love.
B
Who?
A
Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater have gone Instagram official a year and change into their relationship. Actually, who knows how long because apparently all this stuff happened that we don't know about. But the two of them have gone Instagram official. They attended the Wicked premiere in Sydney on Sunday and shared their first photo together on social media on Monday. She shared a cute image of herself leading Ethan down some stairs among in a carousel of other images and he posted that picture too, and she tagged him.
B
Yeah. So it's so funny. And I know you don't know this. So the Jennifer Hudson show, the like, talk show hosted by Jennifer.
A
I think I know it.
B
They do this very cute trend that's really been very good for the show because I feel like her talk show kind of like was in freefall. I feel like it wasn't making a lot of waves. And now on social media they do this thing where every time a guest comes out of their green room and walks to set, all the production members, like producers, pa, they line the hallway and they do like a cute little song and dance and cheer for the person. So they're like E thin Slater. Eat, eat. Like they make something up and it's really cute. So, so many have gone viral. The first one I saw was like when Stefani, she had no idea. She comes out of the dressing room, she's like, what the fuck? And seeing how people like get involved is like so funny. Really, like humanizes a lot of celebrities and it's this really fun thing that they've been doing. And the Ethan Slater one, he went on Jennifer Hudson and he got one and the video went so viral and like, literally that was the catalyst for people now, like have completely changed their tune. He's not like ugly spongebob. They're like, ari, I get it, I get it. I let him. I'd let. With a ten foot pole. Like it's. Yeah, it's so crazy.
A
I saw the video.
B
I just so fudgeing, like wishy washy. It takes the tiniest thing to like turn them completely. But there has definitely been a shift in the Ethan Slater rhetoric and a lot of it, I'm telling you, has to do with that Jennifer Hudson video.
A
I saw the video and that was not my takeaway.
B
No, so funny. Tana Mongeau replied to it and she was like, you guys are so fucking finicky. Like, at first it's like, ew, who's this ugly gap tooth bitch? And now it's like, oh, I let him ram me with a semi truck. Like, it's so crazy how, like, fickle the Internet and, like, the people's opinions are, you know?
A
But I saw the video and what.
B
Did you think about it?
A
Like, I. I wasn't moved.
B
No, neither was.
A
I didn't. Like, it wasn't. It was congruous with the Ethan Slater that I know.
B
Okay. So I saw, actually, a video that I totally should have sent to you. So he's being interviewed on the red carpet, and someone. I guess this. Like, I forget what publication it was their thing was like, asking every person who came by to get interviewed to do the Defying Gravity. Like. Like, do your version of it. And he did. And he was seriously so, like, nasally in SpongeBob. He literally sounded like SpongeBob. And I. My immediate thought was like, okay, SpongeBob is in Wicked. And he was like, oh, that was like. He said that was a little spongebob. Like, I put a little too much spongebob in it. He, like, referred to himself. Honestly, that made me, like, moves the needle.
A
Yeah, that's really funny.
B
He was like, really spongebob. It was literally like, somebody said, can you audition for Defying Gravity as spongebob?
A
Spongebob version.
B
Yeah, it was so funny.
A
That's hysterical.
B
And we're getting a lot of, like, you know, pictures and videos and photos of them interacting, walking down the stairs together. They, like, are ushered to their seats for the actual premiere, and they're holding hands and, like, they're surrounded by fans. So it's, like, officially, you know, on.
A
Yeah. And you know what? I think the timing is really good. It's been a very long time. They're still together. They're promoting the movie. It's good for the movie that there's a romance and they're so serious and, like, they deserve to be out in the public and enjoying their relationship. So even though, like, even though.
B
Right, right. Even though. Period.
A
Even though.
B
Even though. That happy for her, I am not so easily swayed, you know, because I'm so stubborn. It takes a lot for me to change my mind.
A
Time heals most. And so regarding the relationship, like, I'm.
B
You're good.
A
It's. He. I'm not good. But, like, I. I really do like Ari, and, like, I am trying to trust my fave when she's like, you guys, it's not at all what.
B
What it's Been made out, like.
A
And so like I really am trying to. I don't know what it could be, but like, I'm trying to just like trust her.
B
Yeah.
A
And maybe it's like fool me seven times, shame on me because like, she's always got a serious man and it's always, you know, but you gotta trust your face. I really do like her. But, but I don't like him. I just want to say, I just want to make that really clear.
B
I like her too. And honestly, even what I've seen from him, there's.
A
There's nothing to like not a nice guy.
B
But. Yeah, the other, the letter, the letter.
A
That he wrote to his Jewish day school.
B
Oh my God, I totally forgot about this guy. He's a spineless loser. Yeah, he's like, he's like a self hating Jew. Yeah, I'm at.
A
Totally forgot.
B
He's horrible back. I hate again. Sorry. Thank you for reminding me. It's so hard to keep up, like part of this job when like, and I'm sure like you guys, by the.
A
Way, I had to be reminded too recently I had forgotten a really part.
B
Of this job, especially in the last year, I'm sure you guys have noticed, is like really a lot of the times, like separating the art from the artist. Like there are some people, like, I actually will just like forget that they've like done or said things about Israel or Jews because, like, I can't, if I think about it too much, like, I'll have to quit this job for real.
A
Right.
B
When you care as much as we do about celebrities, but more about like our Jewish identity and supporting the state of Israel, like, it's actually really fucking hard. So some things I so push out of my mind. Ethan Slater was out of my mind because he's so irrelevant. Honestly. Not that I pushed it out of my mind, but there are certain like some of my faves who I just like, I look past.
A
Yeah, yeah, because you want to get the job done. But it's like, yeah, separate the art from the artist. But when I don't consume your art, then I don't. Then you're all the same to me. So like Ethan Slater, I didn't see spongebob live. I'm not like a fan and that's.
B
And you, you're so wrong for that.
A
So like, all I know is the letter and the baby.
B
The SpongeBob Ladders, the letters he wrote like, along with like two other freaks like this, he penned a letter to like an open letter to like the Jewish Day school that like raised him and just was like clowning on them for like supporting Israel. It was really like the worst thing ever. And it was like, leave your school alone.
A
Yeah, yeah.
B
So you don't touch the spongebob.
A
Ladder. Ladders. Are you ready for our next story?
B
No. Are you?
A
No.
B
Is it our next story that's brought to you by Skims? Per chance?

A
Our next story is today's Martha Stewart news. In an effort to rebuild what Martha lost stolen from her, we shall talk about Martha every day until the job is done.
B
So she's a billionaire again. I love that.
A
So Bethany Frankel actually took to her Tick Tock to do a little Martha Stewart story time. Did you see?
B
I did see, but I didn't watch the whole thing because I felt like it was going to be like a Martha hate train and I wasn't in the mood.
A
So it was like a bit of both. But ultimately it sounds like like respect but also just sharing like anecdotes from her time with Martha over the years. It was an eight part series which like seems like that's a lot, right? Okay, that just seems like a lot.
B
No, I can tell you especially ever since Tick Tock release the ability, you can do videos up to 10 minutes long, there has never been any sort of need for a part two, let alone a part Eight what?
A
Maybe a part two. Maybe. But eight parts, like, come on.
B
And maybe that's why I'm not a successful tick tocker, because my philosophy is like, I refuse to do good part two. Like off. Put it all in one video. Like, I hate that.
A
Yeah. She recalled the few interactions that she had with Martha over the years. And actually she's an interesting person to like hear her point of view because I feel like for a few years she was probably like a Martha in training. Like she.
B
Martha was probably like her inspo.
A
Yeah, for sure. So Bethany Fringel had competed on Martha Stewart's show in 2005 that was called the Apprentice. The Apprentice. Martha Stewart. And it was like Martha Stewart's version of the Apprentice, which I didn't know that she had, but it makes sense because, like she worked with Mark Burnett.
B
Mark Burnett for her talk show.
A
And also like, that show sounds amazing. I think I have to go watch it.
B
Yeah.
A
Bethany was the runner up. Yeah. In the past, Bethany has claimed that the two butted heads following the show. And now she's spilling the tea. During the series, the Tick Tock series, let's Not Get Twisted. She remembered a time when Martha made an appearance on her talk show, Bethany and called her a pest.
B
I'm screaming.
A
She said. While Martha wasn't very nice to Bethany on the show, the host recalled it being a milestone in their relationship because it made her feel more like her peer than an. Than her apprentice.
B
Right.
A
She said, quote, it was my house, she was a guest in my home and I still treated her with honor and respect. She's a tough and I know she's been so challenging and she comes from old school generations. I don't give a good about any of that. It's a touching story. She built a billion dollar business. She went to jail. She's been in the clink. I know from people who know her that she was never really like the Persona. She's a broad, so don't get it twisted. Right.
B
And that, by the way, that was something they said in the documentary, like they were not ashamed of, like, like she is tough. And this thing went viral on TikTok. Somebody went up to Martha like at a red carpet and asked her, like, Martha, what is your biggest pet peeve? And she said incompetence. And it's such a good. And that you could see that even when she was like yelling at that bitch about the knife, like someone not doing something, nor like, right or correctly as Martha sees it, like being her biggest pet peeve completely makes Sense. And that doesn't always translate as to, like, the nicest person. And I like that they didn't shy away from that in the documentary. Like, yeah, I was tough. You don't become a billionaire by being soft.
A
Right. And that also, it's like, that's the level that it takes, like, to operate at the level that of what she was doing even in her own home, like, to get up every day and like, to garden, to cook, to clean. She was remodeling her home and painting the rooms. Like, you have to have that sort of drive and, like, exacting standards.
B
Yeah. Incompetence.
A
Bethany also told a story that before all of Bethany's success, she alleges that she had another petty interaction at Nobu. Bethany noticed Martha sitting across the restaurant, and she slid into the booth next to Martha, who made a snide comment about a movie Bethany had done in which she was topless.
B
Oh, my God. Yeah, that. That thing went viral. Remember when she was on Housewives? They brought it up and then it got like. Because it was before Bethany was ever famous. She, like, did a movie and there's, like, a sex scene in it.
A
She. Bethany said, she can't stand me. I'm a pest to her. She said to me, oh, I just watched your movie. Swear on my life.
B
That's, like, such a mean thing to say.
A
Yeah. This what Bethany said back. She said, oh. She said, oh, I just got an insider stock tip.
B
Oh, that's a good rebuttal. I feel like Martha would appreciate somebody who can, like, go back and forth.
A
She said, no exaggeration. Her words. She said, cuntiest of. Cuntiest interactions of all time.
B
That is so funny. Honestly, I do commend Bethany Frankel for her ability to make everything about herself. Like, she. She will. She, like. And it's something that I do every single day. And sometimes I struggle. I'm like, how can I make this about myself? And I couldn't really figure out a way to make the Martha Stewart documentary about myself, but. Oh, actually, I sent it to Dinner party. Yes. Bethany's ability to, like, always bring the conversation back to herself is something I really, really admire, honestly. And this is just a perfect example of that.
A
Yeah. And I also feel like she's so many experiences. She's been in the business for so long. Like, okay, I'll listen. Even though I'm not on TikTok, so I'm not listening. But I. I support this. You know, if I was on your content team, I'd say post it. I'D maybe say two part series.
B
I don't. Bethany has a content team, and I think that's why she's as successful as she is. Like, there's nobody else fucking around on her page. Like, it's literally just her.
A
Yeah. Remember her show, which Bethany. Oh, the competition. Like, to be her content person. Literally, like, it was like the approach.
B
Oh, the big B. Big Shot with B. Oh, my God. Me and Brian Kelly were obsessed with that show. Big Shot with B or something. It was on hbo. Max. It was like one of the first Max original shows back in the day. Oh, my God, I totally forgot about that.
A
It was, like, three years ago, I'm.
B
Saying, when Max first launched and they, like, were just putting up, like, old episodes of Sex in the City and you could watch the new episodes of Game of Thrones. Then they started creating their own original shows. This was like the third one. It was like that dating show is like Fboy island or whatever.
A
Yeah.
B
And Bethany's show. Oh, my God. The big shot with me. Whatever. It was so good and so dumb. I loved it.
A
Yeah. Good time. So are you ready for our fifth and final story?
B
Just to sort of wrap it up? Yeah, I am.
A
Just to sort of wrap it up. It's a story for me, and I chose it selfishly. And there are probably gonna be a couple people out there who care, but not many. And I'm doing.
B
Am I one of them?
A
You might care. In service of your sister.
B
Okay, let's hear it.
A
Queen Elizabeth ii.
B
I don't care.
A
Will be appearing in the new Paddington movie posthumously.
B
That's sweet.
A
That is sweet. So the late Queen Elizabeth II will briefly appear in Paddington and Peru after the beloved bear joined the monarch to promote her platinum Jubilee in 2022. So everyone remembers that sketch. I feel like it meant a lot to everyone.
B
That will always be, like, one of my favorite things that I think of when I think of Elizabeth especially. You were the one who told me about the deep history of Paddington, that.
A
Paddington is a Jewish bear.
B
Right. And he was conceived during the Holocaust or right after the Holocaust to, like, those kids on the Kinder Express where they were shuffling kids out of.
A
Paddington is inspired by them.
B
Yeah.
A
And he's, like, influenced by them. That's why he wears, like, the name around his backpack. So, yeah, it's very Jewish coded. Jewish coded plus Queen Elizabeth. So, yeah. I have a soft spot in my heart for Paddington. I'm not afraid to show it.
B
I love that. Have you ever seen it?
A
No. But maybe that's something I Get into with my kids. Like, what am I doing watching Paddington? It's giving maps.
B
You should watch Paddington.
A
Like, nappy.
B
With the boys. Very happy.
A
Yes. With the boys. When it. When it happens, you know?
B
Yeah.
A
But anyway, her cameo is small. It's a photo from the pair's tea time at Buckingham palace shown on the screen. So they're actually referencing, like, that. The Jubilee, that sketch in the new Paddington movie. And they requested from the royal family if they could do that. The royal family were so excited about it. And of course, that's really cute. Yeah, they were very happy for it to happen. But we don't like to make a big deal of it because Paddington's obviously a very modest fellow.
B
No, of course. And Paddington's a star. You know, we're not infringing on Paddington's moment. We're just happy to be included.
A
Paddington has, like, big connects, and he's got big celeb friends, and he's a mover and shaker, but he's a humble little guy.
B
He's a hustler for sure.
A
He's a hustler.
B
So sweet.
A
That was just a little sweetness to round out the week. I hope that's okay with everyone.
B
To round out the week. It's Tuesday.
A
If that ain't the truth.
B
To round up the day.
A
Today will be a week, everyone. I just want you to know, today.
B
Will be a week.
A
And we'll see you next week. Tomorrow.
B
Here's the thing. We are all gonna. We are gonna be okay. We love each other. We are so divided. Like, seriously, every. Oh, my God. Wait, I have to tell a story. I don't know if you saw this, because I said it to you, but you don't respond. There's so many videos going around. Like, actually, Don Lemon's new job is, like, making a Tick Tock series where he walks around asking people who they're voting for. And there's, like, a million kids who just, like, take a microphone, like, who are you voting for? Trump or Kamala? Trump or. And I saw one today, and someone was wearing Toast Merch, the girly shirt. And I needed. And you know what she said? They were like, Trump or Kamala? And she was like, I actually did a write in for a third party, which is, like, the actual worst thing you could say. Like, you might as well not vote. Like, right? And I was actually, like, horrified.
A
Who do you think she wrote it in? Turdy Lou?
B
I actually think just based on vibes. Like, I think that she just didn't want to say who she voted for because she was, like, kind of caught off guard. Like, you know, they just come up.
A
And like, did you send it to me?
B
Yeah, hold on.
A
I'm on my way. Let's watch.
B
And I don't want to put this girl on the spot. Like, no, no. Like, I don't want to talk about it, like, that much, please. You.
A
You.
B
I DNS'd it.
A
You DNS it?
B
In our chat.
A
Oh, okay. Ugh. Well, there's so much in. Not. Not one to one, right? In the group chat.
B
Not one to one. Yeah.
A
How did I miss this? Let's see. I'm not going to find it.
B
Well, I was just like, so excited. And then I was like, wait, I wonder who she's voting for. What is being nosy?
A
That's so funny. What if she's voting for you, then is it.
B
Okay, I probably should say this, and I should have said it. Like, please don't vote for me. Like, what? Only first of all, I do not want to be president. Like, fudgeing thankless job. And they're. And they're always counting how many days off you take. They're like, biden, like, bitch, leave me alone. I'm going on vacation. Like, that's none of your fucking business. One, two, yeah, thankless job. Like, four years with no time off. Like, I just. I don't want it, so.
A
Well, you get time off.
B
Stop writing in my name, please. I do not want it.
A
You sound like, okay, do not vote for me.
B
No, but for real people are voting for me. Like, stop.
A
I think she wrote in. Hopefully she'll see this if she's a toaster. Was it new merch or old merch?
B
It was the girly tea. Like, pretty new.
A
Oh, she's listening. Shout out. And then, like, let us know. Like, I guess. No, you don't have to tell us your vote.
B
No, no, no. But I just wanted to, like, share, like, some toast election related news.
A
That is really fun. Thank you for sharing that.
B
Yeah. So that's our show, everyone. Good luck today. Like, and I had saw Steve Wozniaki had actually said it might not be like, last year. Like, we actually might find out tonight. Which would be nice, like, not to drag this out. So, like, hopefully tomorrow morning we could just, like, start fresh.
A
Yeah, I mean, we should find out tonight. Like, we found out tonight for like my whole life, my most years, last year, last time. I keep saying last year. Like, there was more mail in ballots because of COVID But, like, now it should be like. And so many People voted early. Like, why, like, shouldn't that make case?
B
But I saw this thing about like an important county saying we need 14 days or some like that. Mariposa County.
A
Maricopa. Get it together. Why is it always Maricopa?
B
It is always. Is that in Arizona?
A
Georgia. Oh, well, I think so.
B
It's annoying.
A
No. And it's like, hopefully.
B
Hopefully like this. Hopefully it ends tonight. It ends tonight. Like, that would be nice. Because last year, last election, it was till Saturday.
A
Oh, no, it's Arizona, Turtle.
B
Oh, my God. Not me. Literally knowing everything about this election.
A
Not me.
B
Right in for 30.
A
Not me. Rage baiting. Unless it's a tie. That's like the only. Like, then it would not.
B
Well, yeah, because I was watching the Today show today and they're like final poll results were 49 to 49. And I never understand polls like that because what about the other 2%? Did those people not vote?
A
No, they wrote in or they did a third or they did. Green Party.
B
Yeah. Yeah. Okay.
A
Okay. Also I wonder what happens if there's a tie. Tie goes to the runner.
B
I think it was to tie Frazier. That's just what I think. So if you, if you're not going to write in for me, which you shouldn't, you should write in for Ty Frazier.
A
Yeah. But don't go for Turdy. You guys like.
B
No. Go vote for one of the two candidates. Best of luck. We'll see you on the other side. Make a chili, watch tv. And just.
A
And also what I was going to say, I think they make it really close, like on the news, like 49 to 49. So that you tune in tonight to watch. Because if it's like this person's just winning, then blow out, you know, also they. For ratings, they want people to go vote. And if you think this person's just winning, whether it's your candidate or not, you might think that your vote doesn't matter because it's like so far. So I think it's like good for everyone when they're like, it's so close.
B
