Claudia Oshry
Good morning, millennials. Welcome back to the morning toast. Happy Friday. Friday. Gotta get down on Friday, everyone. Congratulations. A huge mazel tov on making it to the end of the week without losing your mind.
Jackie Oshry
Yes. And I just have so many personal updates to share that I'm just gonna jump right into them because in so many ways, I'm a different person than I was on the show yesterday.
Claudia Oshry
I hear that completely.
Jackie Oshry
And in. In no order of importance, three major things happened in my life yesterday. I moved. It has just been such an exciting, treacherous experience, but made less treacherous with the most wonderful moving company, Roadway.
Claudia Oshry
Okay. By the way, I use them for my move two years ago. We use them for our studio move like we. Everyone in our family uses them. They are true. And by the way, I've had the same movers every time. They're like the nicest guys. It is the best company.
Jackie Oshry
It's the best company. It's the best moving experience. I feel like I used to dread moving so much, but they really make it as pleasant as human.
Claudia Oshry
They do it all.
Jackie Oshry
They do it all. They've even given me a discount code to share with the toasters. It's Jackie 10. If you want to get 5% off lo long distance moves or 10 off local moves, head to roadway. Have a link in my stories. Use code Jackie10 and get some money off your next move and start moving and grooving.
Claudia Oshry
Start moving and grooving. You moving, like, into this palatial, you know, palace in the sky has really got me. I've inspired you all bent out of shape, and there actually is identical unit in your building. Like, how many? Like, four floors up.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah.
Claudia Oshry
And I'm. I'm actually.
Jackie Oshry
I think you should take it.
Claudia Oshry
I'm actually really thinking about it. I just love my building so much.
Jackie Oshry
I know. I love my building. And if you moved into my building, like, one Theo and Bruno, best friends. I know they would never spend a day apart.
Claudia Oshry
I know. Like, that's. That's big. You gotta. It's like, you gotta. It's like you just gotta do it for your kids, you know?
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. You have to do it for the kids, too. Like, you and I could be, like, podcasting all the time, like, just running up and down and, like, creating content.
Claudia Oshry
No, I know.
Jackie Oshry
Three. Like, Ben and Zach could be playing Monopoly all day long.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah. And then, like, I'm. I really. I dread being alone. It's like, one of my biggest fears, which is why, like, I'm a homebody, and therefore Ben has to be a homebody but it could, like, be a.
Jackie Oshry
Building body if you.
Claudia Oshry
But not only that, like, if you lived in my building or I in your building, like, Ben could go do whatever he want and then, like, we could just, like, watch TV together.
Jackie Oshry
No, I know. I really think you should at least look at the unit.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah, no, I. It's so funny. Like, buildings in New York are so snotty. I actually reached out yesterday, like, after you sent me the link, and I'm like, hey, look, let's come see the apartment. And they were like, before. They're like, well, are you qualified for XX and X? And I'm like, yeah, I think so. Like, chill. Like, they're so. It's like, so, like, something about my name maybe doesn't give off, like, good vibes.
Jackie Oshry
Wow.
Claudia Oshry
They're like, well, we can't let you into the apartment unless we know that you have xx. And I'm like, okay. Fucking nasty snot. Yeah, I got it.
Jackie Oshry
Okay.
Claudia Oshry
So fucking rude.
Jackie Oshry
Is that off to a good foot?
Claudia Oshry
No, no. It's like, I'm taking it personal.
Jackie Oshry
Wow. Okay.
Claudia Oshry
Why else are you a different person? Well, you've successfully moved and your apartment is so nice.
Jackie Oshry
I've successfully moved. I still have so much, like, unpacking and organizing to do. My apartment is so nice, but it has significantly less closet space, like, for my personal wardrobe. I think half. Like, I'm not even joking. And so I am being, like, relentless about just donations and cleaning out my closet. Like, I literally have removed, like, so many iconic pieces that I never thought I would get rid of just because, like, of the memories, like, if you saw. If you saw some of the things, you would know exactly what it's from and you would be like, wow, you're really going to do that?
Claudia Oshry
That's crazy.
Jackie Oshry
Crazy. So this weekend will be very transformative as I continue to build out the space. Um, second thing, I'm gonna save the best for last. Second thing. I finally set up my new phone and it really has just. It's put in, like, when you set up a new phone, like, you feel like a new person. Okay.
Claudia Oshry
So, like, remember back in the day when you would, like, get a new BlackBerry and, like, you had a new pin and everyone was adding vm and you just felt like you woke up every morning with so many notifications more than usual because, like, everyone was just, like, adding you and, like, redoing all the things and you felt, like, so popular and special.
Jackie Oshry
Oh, no. I feel like that's not what it is for me, but I'm sorry.
Claudia Oshry
I really just, like, exposed myself.
Jackie Oshry
I'm so glad you had that experience for me. It's like, I feel like your phone is so much a part of, like, your habit in your daily life. And I got a phone that's a new size, so now with this bigger phone, I feel like the way I'm holding it, like, I feel like a new person. Like, I feel like I'm someone else, you know? So it's just, like, on my new phone last night, setting it up, just, like, feeling there's that new phone vibe that's just inexplicable.
Claudia Oshry
I couldn't agree more.
Jackie Oshry
But apparently there's this new update. You know, it used to be, you got a new phone, you have to download all your apps, make a new background. I was like, you know what? When I get my new phone, right now, my background was Theo, and I was like, I'll update my background to, like, Bruno or something like that.
Claudia Oshry
Wow, that's so rude.
Jackie Oshry
But with the new phone update, your whole phone, even the way you organize your apps, transfers to your new.
Claudia Oshry
Fabulous.
Jackie Oshry
Your background screen transfers.
Claudia Oshry
Fabulous.
Jackie Oshry
So Theo lives to see another day. And I love having Theo as my background screen because he's. He's my number one. He always will be like, that number one guy.
Claudia Oshry
Speaking of old photos, I saw my friend Jason last night, who's, like, one of my oldest friends from high school. And that's why I couldn't watch Southern Charm, because, like, I had a couple of drinks and Jason has literally his camera roll goes back to 2010.
Jackie Oshry
Whoa.
Claudia Oshry
How crazy is that? So that's like, my last two years of high school. And we went to college together, too. So, like, I literally spent the entire night last night, like, in 2011. It was crazy. Like, that is crazy, because I guess he had an iPhone. In high school, I had a BlackBerry. I don't remember. But, like, I don't know how much. How much his storage plan is per year because, like, it's a crazy amount of photos, but it was really like traveling back in time.
Jackie Oshry
How many photos do you have on your phone?
Claudia Oshry
55, 000.
Jackie Oshry
How many do I have?
Claudia Oshry
It's. It's insane. I mean, I have so many screenshots just from, like, running 6,000. Wow. Yeah, just from, like, you know, our businesses, like, in our Instagram accounts.
Jackie Oshry
Every time I take a photo, like, I take 20. And I don't really delete the old ones because you just never know when you're gonna need it. Yeah. So that's that. And then the third piece of news, personal news, that I think might be the biggest out of the.
Claudia Oshry
This should have been a fast five story. It's like, such big news.
Jackie Oshry
It's such big news. I know it really should have, but no one wrote it up. Unfortunately, I have changed my Instagram handle from Jackie O. Problems to Jackie Ashrae.
Claudia Oshry
Now let's talk about the genesis. How did we get started? Who is Jackie O. Problems? What is Jackie? Oh, problems. What are your problems?
Jackie Oshry
Okay, so I started Jackie o problems in 2011. I think I started on Twitter, and that was my handle since 2011. And then it was my Instagram handle, Snapchat. You know, anywhere I went, so did me and my problems. And it started as like a play on obviously, like, white girl problems and all those problems.
Claudia Oshry
Right. There was a trend on Twitter, like in the early 2000s, where you would make, like, tall girl problems, and it was just like the problems that tall girls face. And yes, you were doing Jackie O Problem.
Jackie Oshry
They were like, problems that were specific to me and it made a lot of sense at the time. And I never really, like, thought much about it in the past few years, but every time I would realize that that's my Instagram handle, like, I would kind of cringe.
Claudia Oshry
Cringe. It's because it's like an old school Internet trend.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. It's like, first of all, it completely dates me. Like, it's like, hi, I've been on the Internet since 2010, like, when. And like, I've been here for 10 years, and it's not, like, in fashion anymore.
Claudia Oshry
No. And it's also not what you post. Like, that's at the end of the day, like, you don't post your problems. No.
Jackie Oshry
But also, it's like, if it was an old joke that people were still, like, doing, maybe I would have kept it. But it's. It's not in anymore.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah.
Jackie Oshry
So when I would take the time to, like, think about the fact that that was my handle, like, I was just like, I don't want this to be my handle anymore. And it would probably happen like, once a year where I realized, like, oh, my God. So.
Claudia Oshry
And you would try to secure other.
Jackie Oshry
Handles, and I would try to secure other handles. So I literally, this time last year, it was Thanksgiving, I messaged, there's someone has the handle at Jackie O, which is my dream handle, and it belongs to a girl. And I had messaged her and we were communicating a little bit, but it just didn't work out in terms of me getting it from her.
Claudia Oshry
Well, she Just. She tried to haggle you.
Jackie Oshry
No, she. I mean, she just expected a price that I just wasn't willing to pay for an Internet handle. Like, I do have my limits.
Claudia Oshry
Yes. No, it was insane.
Jackie Oshry
Like, and so I had to let that dream go. And then, you know, a calendar year passed and I realized again that my handle is Jackie O. Problems. And I was like, okay, it is time. I need to think of something else. And I was like, maybe it should just be Jackie Ashrae. Like, I like her. She's a nice girl. And so I went to change it, but apparently, if you're, like, a public figure and you have a lot of followers, you can't change your handle on your own. You need to get, like, a contact at Instagram. So I went about getting a contact at Instagram and they said they would work on it.
C
And.
Jackie Oshry
And then yesterday, I guess they worked on it and my handle was Jackie Ashram.
Claudia Oshry
Well, they didn't even ask you. Like, are you sure? Like, no.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. It just flipped the switch and I was just, like, obviously on the most transitional day period. And I feel so good about it. I know there are some people who are just, like, averse to change, and, like, they're, you know, they love. It's a big.
Claudia Oshry
They're always going to be against it. Like, no.
Jackie Oshry
Or, like, just any sort of rebrand. It takes a while to get used to. But, you guys, I'm telling you, this is for the best.
Claudia Oshry
It's the right decision.
Jackie Oshry
All of the better vibes that are going to come from this new handle. And I'm actually someone I love change. Like, I. All the time. Like, even moving apartments. Like, I'm. I really embrace change. And so I'm just so excited about this. This change. I really am.
Claudia Oshry
I'm excited for you. We congratulate you here at the morning toast. Good luck on this new journey. And no looking back.
Jackie Oshry
No looking back. And I obviously, like, I didn't share with anyone. Like, you know what I was when I was thinking about it, because I don't like to talk about things until they're done. Otherwise, like, I feel like I'm going to jinx them. Like. Like, my Instagram handle would have, like, disappeared. No, my Instagram contact. Sorry. Would have, you know, stopped working at the company or something.
Claudia Oshry
Totally. Because that's something that would happen to.
Jackie Oshry
Us and then I would have been stuck with Jackie O. Problems, and you guys would have known how much I hated it.
Claudia Oshry
Oh, my God. Totally. Okay, well, I'm so glad I have a brand new Co host.
Jackie Oshry
It's like you have a brand new co host and I feel like that's where why I'm wearing like all white.
Claudia Oshry
You're pure. You're like getting baptized.
Jackie Oshry
I'm a clean getting baptized on. I'm free of all.
Claudia Oshry
On the Sunshine Network.
Jackie Oshry
I'm free of all my problems. And I just want to say, like, even though I've dropped the problems, like, it doesn't mean I don't have problems anymore.
Claudia Oshry
Nobody has more problems than you.
Jackie Oshry
Nobody has more problems than me. Someone was like, I'm gonna manifest having less problems by putting the name problems in my name and then taking it out.
Claudia Oshry
You know, you are literally significantly less problematic today than you were yesterday.
Jackie Oshry
And we absolutely love to see that.
Claudia Oshry
We love to see growth.
Jackie Oshry
We love it. So I'm really excited and make sure to follow me at Jackie Ashtray. Woo.
Claudia Oshry
So I do believe that it might be time.
Jackie Oshry
Why? You're just gonna rush me right in, huh?
Claudia Oshry
No, I mean, like, to be honest, like, we've been talking about you for a while. It's hard for me.
Jackie Oshry
I knew today I was gonna fight, fight, fight.
Claudia Oshry
No, it's hard. Like, I just think. I think it's time to move on.
Jackie Oshry
Do you have anything that you want to share?
Claudia Oshry
No. I did absolutely nothing yesterday except be like a disgusting piece of shit and like, not wash my hair.
Jackie Oshry
But you went out to dinner.
Claudia Oshry
Yes, I did. I hit the town and the town hit me back. I had three margaritas at dinner and it was nice. Saw my friend Jason, which was also really nice. And yeah, I wish I had more to report on. I. I just don't. Life is so uninteresting for me like you.
Jackie Oshry
Do you wish you had a life changing Instagram handle change?
Claudia Oshry
No, I wish that, like, no. Everyone around me is like, olivia's a mom, she has a new apartment. You have a new apartment. You have a new dog. Margo has a new dog.
Jackie Oshry
Oh, and. And the new dog and the new handle and the new phone and like.
Claudia Oshry
Ben's parents just moved. Like, everyone has all these like, exciting life updates and I'm just like, still the same disgusting piece of I was six months ago. So I'm like, jealous of everyone's like, metaphor metamorphoses. Yeah, I'm just not currently experiencing when I'm still in my cocoon.
Jackie Oshry
Maybe you should get a new phone.
Claudia Oshry
I don't need one. Like, my phone works very well and it's the 11. Like something about getting the 11. Getting the 12 when you have the 11 seems so wasteful to me. Like, me, I'll get the 13. Do you know what I mean?
Jackie Oshry
You're on odd phone.
Claudia Oshry
Oh, that's true. Maybe I should get on even. So I just feel like that's. That's what Apple wants you to do. And, like, I won't give in to that.
Jackie Oshry
No, I totally agree with that. But it's also based on like, two year plans. Like, they come out with a new phone every year. You have a two year plan means that you're missing one of every phone. Yeah, every phone.
Claudia Oshry
Right.
C
Which you should.
Jackie Oshry
That makes sense.
Claudia Oshry
And it's like when Apple, like, okay, they decided this year, like, they're done with USBs. Like, no, I'm not getting rid of my USB. I'm buying a janky ass converter on Amazon and I'm still using it. Like, I refuse to give in to Apple and their fucking corporate supremacy. Like, it's insane.
Jackie Oshry
It's insane. What if you got a haircut? Like, a crazy haircut?
Claudia Oshry
I won't get a haircut, but I actually am need. I'm in need of like a chop. Just like a fresh 2 to 3 inch trim that would make me feel good.
Jackie Oshry
I saw a photo of myself, myself yesterday that made me realize, like, I need a haircut. I feel like as someone who used to have short hair, it's like I just. I revel in all of my hair growth, but, like, it's too long now.
Claudia Oshry
No, you're getting to the Woodstock stage.
Jackie Oshry
Yes, I am.
Claudia Oshry
And it's. I've been there. I actually was stuck in the Woodstock stage for so long thinking that it was like, so cool. And now I look back and it looks so dirty. Like someone should have given me a bath. Like, so sick. Because I'm into long hair. But there is a point where long hair becomes like, circus freak. And the line is very thin, so you got to be careful.
Jackie Oshry
Saw a picture of myself yesterday. Plus, like, with my white outfit, like, I look like it could be in a cold. Yeah.
Claudia Oshry
100. And they haven't let you out of your bunker in six years. And that's why your hair is so long.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah, exactly. Okay. I'm trying to think of other things that you could do to, like, revitalize.
Claudia Oshry
No, I'm just like, really set on moving.
Jackie Oshry
I would. I love that. And I. And I love your apartment so much. And I understand why you've been so resistant.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah.
Jackie Oshry
Trying to hold back a sneeze.
Claudia Oshry
Are you trying to cry because you love my apartment so much?
Jackie Oshry
I do. And it's been so good to you.
Claudia Oshry
No, no. The thing is, is, like, I would. And I feel like maybe this is, like, a bad way to live your life, because at the end of the day, like, I really do like my apartment. And there, obviously there are things I.
Jackie Oshry
Don'T like about it compared to others.
Claudia Oshry
Right. And so, like, I feel like moving just to, like, keep up with other people is, like, a really bad omen, like, and a bad way to live your life.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. When it's like, you're happy with where you're at and you just accept that. Why could that be enough?
Claudia Oshry
I am shallow and vain, and now I technically have the worst apartment in the family. Except for Margo.
Jackie Oshry
That was a rhetorical question. Oh, o. I'm the one here advocating for you to move just to have, like, a little bit of spice in your life.
Claudia Oshry
No, I know. Like, it's like that tick tock sound like, let me add a little bit of spice. Like, that's literally what I need. My life is just, like, so vanilla right now.
Jackie Oshry
I understand. Well, at least you know that if you move, you can use roadway. You can use code JACKIE10. 10 off local moves, 5% off long distance.
Claudia Oshry
All right, let's dive right in.
Jackie Oshry
Okay. Wow.
Claudia Oshry
Go for it.
Jackie Oshry
Now you're done.
Claudia Oshry
Do what you got to do.
Jackie Oshry
Now you're good and ready. It is time for the Fast 5 stories that you need to know before you wake up and take a bite out of your morning toast.

Jackie Oshry
Okay, first story. Cardi B says she's too shy to ask male rappers to collaborate. This is like such a relatable story.
Claudia Oshry
No, I read this and I was like oh my God. Like that would. That's me as a rapper. Like I'm so like shy. Especially around Boys. Like, I feel like I haven't changed at all since high school. And like I said, feel this to my soul.
Jackie Oshry
Totally. Cardi B may known for her brazen lyrics, but the rapper insists she's actually, actually so shy that she can't bring herself to ask male rappers to collaborate with her. Cardi B revealed in a new Billboard interview. She said, quote, the thing is, I'm shy and really shy to reach out to male artists, to be honest with you. That's why a lot of collabs that I want, I haven't got yet, because I'm scared to reach out. I always get a little starstruck. I'll be thinking I'm corny, even though I'm funny. Oh, that is so, so cute.
Claudia Oshry
I mean, I feel like in Hollywood a lot of collaborations happen, like, through people's teams. Like, she could have her team reach out. That's the point in having a team, you know?
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. But maybe if it's like a really big artist, like, it means so much.
Claudia Oshry
More artist to artist, 100% that I agree with as well. So this is a predicament and one in which I'm surprised we haven't heard about from, like, other people in music.
Jackie Oshry
Because, like, this would literally be us as rappers.
Claudia Oshry
Like, shy, like, oh, I don't know, like, you want to sing with me? Like, it's. It's awkward to ask too. And I kind of. I feel like maybe Cardi B doesn't feel this way, but, like, I hate asking people for, like, stuff because I hate, like, coming off desperate. Do you know what I mean?
Jackie Oshry
Yeah, no, I just hate.
Claudia Oshry
So there's so many elements to why.
Jackie Oshry
You would be shy also when you're asking people for stuff. And I even kind of feel this way about this is what, like, kind of Taylor Swift was saying about, like, wanting to work with Bonnie there but like, never thinking that she could like. Well, you just think someone's gonna say no, so you're like, better not ask because they're gonna say no.
Claudia Oshry
Well, that's like everyone's like, fear of rejection always.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah, yeah.
Claudia Oshry
Because that's like, I feel like these sort of insecurities, like, are all stem from like, high school. And those are. They like, never leave you. Like, fear of rejection. Like, nervous talking to voice. Like, they never leave you for sure.
Jackie Oshry
But like, not everyone suffers from these insecurities, you know? Cuz some people are just like, so brazen.
Claudia Oshry
I know. And part of me is like, jealous of people who are just like, so sure of themselves and so, like, secure in who they are, who, like, can just do whatever they want. But then part of me is also like, calm down.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. No, I feel like in instances like that, it's like I'm jealous of a person who is sure about themselves and, like, you know, asks for what they want. But then in other elements of life, like, you see that person in a different scenario, like at a restaurant, and it's like, oh, no, thank you.
Claudia Oshry
There is nothing more frightening than a person who is so sure of themselves in a restaurant. Oh, my God. I. Whenever I'm at a restaurant and I hear the way people talk, like, it makes me want to vomit. Like, it's so sick. Certain restaurants just, like, have the worst customers. You know what I mean?
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. No. So I feel like that person is definitely getting great collabs, but, like.
Claudia Oshry
But what?
Jackie Oshry
Do you want to be around them at any other time?
Claudia Oshry
No. Especially a restaurant, right? Absolutely not. That's a really good point.
Jackie Oshry
Thanks. So, Cardi, I hope some, like, pop, like, the biggest rappers, male rappers in the game, like, hear this interview and reach out to her, and they're like, I would love to work with you.
Claudia Oshry
If you think about it, I don't know that many collabs Cardi B. Has with male artists, especially rappers like she did Maroon 5. They're not in the rap scene. And I don't know any other male artists that she's collaborated with.
Jackie Oshry
No, but she's collabed with, like, a lot of females. And I guess it's because she just feels more comfortable asking, which I actually.
Claudia Oshry
Think is very cool of Cardi B. Like, for being a female rapper who lifts up other female rappers.
Jackie Oshry
Right. And I think that this sort of what she would consider, like, a hindrance of not being able to ask male rappers. It actually winds up being even more beautiful because she probably gravitates towards female rappers and the content that they create together is amazing.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah. Like, it's just been more beneficial for her. And she's now, at least. I don't know if she did it on purpose. To me, she is known as, like, a female rapper who lifts up other female rappers. When I feel like, for a while when, like, Nicki Minaj was, like, the reigning queen of rap, female rap, it wasn't like that at all. It was, like, very competitive. And that's why, like, her and Cardi, like, butted head so much. And now I feel like Cardi's, like, setting a new standard for, like, the new wave of young Megan Thee stallions. Like, young female Artists.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah, we love to see it.
Claudia Oshry
We do.
Jackie Oshry
Wow. Speaking of big music news, though.
Claudia Oshry
Bmn.
Jackie Oshry
Bmn.
Claudia Oshry
Let me take a sip of my Diet Coke. That's. Yep. That's kind of big to swallow.
Jackie Oshry
Radio Disney devastating. Radio Disney is shutting down amid a restructuring. Disney is shuttering its Radio Disney division. Among the ongoing restructuring at the media giant, Radio Disney and Radio Disney country will both stop broadcasting in the first quarter of 2021, resulting in layoffs for 36 full and part time employees.
Claudia Oshry
That cuts deep.
Jackie Oshry
That cuts deep.
Claudia Oshry
I didn't forgot about Radio Disney Country.
Jackie Oshry
This feels like personal.
Claudia Oshry
This feels like the last day of camp. Like. Yeah, because you want to know why? I feel like when I think of what was most influential to me as like a young burgeoning woman, I always, I think the Disney Channel was so integral in, you know, the monster that I became.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah.
Claudia Oshry
And I feel like we really grew up in the golden age of Disney, but I feel like every, you know, older person feels like they grew up in the golden age. But I actually, I think that this is proof actually that we did grow up in the golden age of Disney Channel. Yeah. The Hannah Montana, that's our Raven, even Stevens era.
Jackie Oshry
Yes. And I think that that is objectively the golden age of Disney. I think Disney is still very cool and they have a lot like, you know, Descendants. I absolutely love Doran Stan, but it's. It's not Hat Montana.
Claudia Oshry
It's not comparable.
Jackie Oshry
It's not Wizards of Waverly Place.
Claudia Oshry
No. It's not the Even Stevens movie. Model Model, Double Take, all those movies.
Jackie Oshry
DCOM, Smart House, Lizzie McGuire Movie, High School Musical. And you want to know how you know that it's not those things? Because Descendants 3 wasn't in theaters. High School Musical.
Claudia Oshry
Right.
Jackie Oshry
Was Lizzie McGuire Movie was. Hannah Montana movie was.
Claudia Oshry
Right. That's true. Like, they really elevated out of their own bubble and like it was really world domination.
Jackie Oshry
Or maybe someone at the theater saw Descendants three, like, was ready to put it in theaters and then was like, oh, no, this is so bad.
Claudia Oshry
Oh, was it terrible?
Jackie Oshry
It was the worst of the franchise, which never happens on the third.
Claudia Oshry
No.
Jackie Oshry
But that's what we got. Because the second was so good.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah.
Jackie Oshry
So good. It was an interesting dynamic between the films. Good.
Claudia Oshry
So, yeah. So I just feel like as much as I sound like an old person being like, oh, I grew up in the golden age of Disney Channel, I feel like Radio Disney is shutting down right now is just further proof that I'm actually not just an old person. Like, it's 100% true.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. Yeah. I think it's. It's really a sad story. End of an era, for sure.
Claudia Oshry
End of an era for sure. But at the same time, I, I actually, from a business perspective, I see. What is Radio Disney beneficial for now? Like, yes, Disney has good programming with, like, decent music, but the Disney genre in terms of music when we were kids was like a full blown genre. They needed their own station.
Jackie Oshry
Yes. They don't need it now, but it's a sign of the times. Like, the way that people are listening to music is different. I think radio in general is suffering different. So I feel like they could have pivoted to some sort of like, streaming, successful streaming. But I do think it's got become a little irrelevant.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah, it's just like for every person, like over the age of 21, like, today's a sad day. We are mourning the loss of Radio Disney. I think everyone can think of a memory in their childhood where they're like sitting in the back of the car, like, maybe in a car seat, just like jamming out to something on Radio Disney and everyone can like, recall what station it was like in their local area, you know, in their region.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah.
Claudia Oshry
Devastating. Devastating for the whole Disney family.
Jackie Oshry
It really is. So we'll miss you.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah, I miss you I miss your smile and I still shed a tear every once in a while and even though it's different now, you're still here Somehow my heart will let you go and I need you to know Wow. I miss you Sha la la la I miss you. Literally can't remember a person's name when they tell it to me five seconds before. But I can remember a song I haven't heard since I was in the seventh grade. And that's on being. On having your priorities in order. Like, literally haven't heard that song. Can't even remember the last time I heard it, but could sing it in my sleep. Didn't even like wince at one of the words.
Jackie Oshry
Totally.
Claudia Oshry
No. And that's like, not even Hannah's most popular song. Like, that was like a really random Hannah song.
Jackie Oshry
No, honestly, it was like a bad Hannah song.
Claudia Oshry
A ban a song. There were so many good ones. Like, I could literally do a full in depth, like, Patreon episode on the discography of Hannah Montana 100. Because she really went through so many phases. And I feel like the one that I loved the most was definitely like Hannah Montana Forever. She was making such good music. Smooth talking so rockin he's got everything that a girl's wanting guitar cutie.
Jackie Oshry
He plays a groovy.
Claudia Oshry
Like, that song was so good. And that era where she was like going between like Jake and Jesse, like.
Jackie Oshry
She cut her hair.
Claudia Oshry
Yes, she did.
Jackie Oshry
She did cut her haircut.
Claudia Oshry
And she moved out of the Malibu beach house into like a Malibu ranch house with a horse. And that was an iconic.
Jackie Oshry
That was an iconic, iconic house season. Yeah. And Lily moved in with her, which was like a little question which was.
Claudia Oshry
Just kind of like moochie. And it's like, where were Lily's parents? I know they were okay with like Lily living with Miley, but like, that's just like an insane thing to do. Like, leave your home and like live with your friend in high school. Like, if we're talking about real kids in high school.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah, no, totally. We should do a whole Patreon episode about it in the new year because we have like so many episodes to do this month. Like, I mean, I would love to get my home. I'm so many people are asking for a home tour. I'm obviously going to do a home tour on Patreon. Hopefully this month, maybe next month. Like, because I need, I want it to be like stunning for you guys. We need to do a holiday gift guide. I have like so many gift ideas that I would love to share with the group.
Claudia Oshry
Really? I don't have any ideas. Like, I feel like I'm the worst gift giver.
Jackie Oshry
No, but like, think of the things in your life that you cherish and value most.
Claudia Oshry
Theo. Okay, I'll get everyone dogs.
Jackie Oshry
Right? And then also like end of year roundup. Best of worst stuffs.
Claudia Oshry
EOY Roundup. You love to see an EOY Roundup.

Jackie Oshry
Okay, next story is some delicious news. Mariah Carey launches her own cookie brand.
Claudia Oshry
This is interesting. I didn't see this.
Jackie Oshry
This is so interesting. Christmas queen Mariah Carey has whipped up her own cookie brand just in time for the holidays. Mariah's cookies is set to Launch on Friday, December 4th. That's today. Online offering boxes of a dozen or half a dozen cookies in 30 major American markets for the holiday season. The delivery only brand is selling a holiday hits box which includes gingerbread, white, chocolate, cranberry and pumpkin varieties. Other assortments include chocolatey treats, pack box, the pumpkin box and the gingerbread box Brocks. According to a news release, once the yuletide season wraps, Carrie plans to offer other varieties.
Claudia Oshry
Other varieties?
Jackie Oshry
I'm like really struggling. No, like they're using such big words for a story about cookies.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah, like chill, relax.
Jackie Oshry
The baked goods will be available to order via delivery apps including Grubhub, DoorDash, Postmates, UberEats, and Seamless.
Claudia Oshry
So this is like a real project for Mariah Carey and it's very interesting. Select celebrities do different things all the time. They create makeup lines, skincare lines. They do movies, music. Like I've actually don't. I can't recall in recent history when a celebrity went into like the food space.
Jackie Oshry
There's one celebrity cookie line that if you think hard enough, you'll get.
Claudia Oshry
The Girl Scouts? No, celebrity cookies.
Jackie Oshry
And the celebrities. If I give you one clue, you'll get it.
Claudia Oshry
Okay, tell me.
Jackie Oshry
Victoria's Secret fashion show.
Claudia Oshry
What Victoria? I don't think of cookies when I think of the Victoria.
Jackie Oshry
Exactly. Why?
Claudia Oshry
What is it?
Jackie Oshry
Karlie Kloss's cookies.
Claudia Oshry
She has a cookie company.
Jackie Oshry
You don't remember this. They did a big.
Claudia Oshry
Carly Claus. I'm sorry. Is the queen of doing things that are off brand, making a line of cookies. And then her other thing is, like.
Jackie Oshry
Like, cookies were, like, healthy cookies. And at the Victoria's Secret fashion show, they, like, went around backstage, like, asking all the models, like, what they're eating before the show.
Claudia Oshry
And everyone's like, Carly's cookies as they're, like, literally throwing up because they're so nasty. Like, oh, that's so funny. Nobody know that. I just feel like this is an interesting move and not one I expected from, like, Queen Mariah Carey.
Jackie Oshry
Sounds so delicious. I literally am going to order some cookies.
Claudia Oshry
Well, that's where you and I disagree, because I fundamentally have a problem with cookies that are just, like, beyond the regular, like, chocolate chip sugar snickerdoodle. Like, there's four or five major, like, cookie categories in terms of flavors. And I just feel like when people go, like, off the rails and it's like, pumpkin duty. Like, cookies, like, relax. Like, cookies are fine the way that they are. And, like, people inventing, like, new silly, like, carrot cookies. Like, let's not collectively. Let's just not.
Jackie Oshry
Cookies are good cookie.
Claudia Oshry
Okay. I'll accept that as a category, even though I don't particularly like.
Jackie Oshry
Even though it's like, that's literally snickerdoodle.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah. Very confusing.
Jackie Oshry
But we're gonna just call it gingerbread for the holidays.
Claudia Oshry
Sure, sure, sure.
Jackie Oshry
White chocolate cranberry. Like, actually so unnecessary. So good.
Claudia Oshry
So do not. Okay, here. Ready? I'm about to make a royal decree. Keep fruits and vegetables out of desserts. The two are not meant to. To be together. Okay.
Jackie Oshry
And I just want to say on that note, eat. Keep them out of desserts. And they're also not desserts. Fruit, carrot dessert.
Claudia Oshry
Carrot cake.
Jackie Oshry
Fruit is not a dessert.
Claudia Oshry
Hear ye. I agree.
Jackie Oshry
If I come over for dinner and you're like, and I got some fruit.
Claudia Oshry
For dessert, I'm leaving.
Jackie Oshry
I'm out the door. Like, I. I find them to be so hurtful and so disrespectful. Like, no.
Claudia Oshry
And it's like, I totally get it.
Jackie Oshry
You're putting out, like, fresh plates for dessert. And I'm like, oh, like, she.
Claudia Oshry
She made a cake. No. And I get people who want to be healthy. And maybe this is where you just don't have dessert. Like, let's stop reinventing.
Jackie Oshry
Yes.
Claudia Oshry
Because it's disrespectful to the. The whole dessert community, like, to put out a carrot cake or a white cranberry cookie. Disgusting.
Jackie Oshry
So we're gonna disagree like on some of the finer fines.
Claudia Oshry
What are her other categories?
Jackie Oshry
Decree? No, those. Oh, there's other one. That's a pumpkin varieties cookie. Sick.
Claudia Oshry
Disgusting. Pumpkin is so disgusting. And we all need to collectively, I.
Jackie Oshry
Have something else to say about pumpkin. I never knew this, but pumpkin pie is disgusting. Have you had it recently?
Claudia Oshry
Do you think that I have ever put a morsel of pumpkin related product in my mouth? No. Because I am a woman of taste.
Jackie Oshry
Pumpkin pie. The filling tastes like someone ate pumpkin, chewed it, and spit it out into a pump pie crust. That's literally what it tastes like. And I'm not nearly as picky as you.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah, that's true. No, it's like, at the end of the day, stop normalizing fruits and vegetables in our desserts.
Jackie Oshry
Okay.
Claudia Oshry
Even though I'll make some exceptions. Apple pie. I'm okay with that.
Jackie Oshry
Blueberry pie, Please be okay with it.
Claudia Oshry
I'm okay with that too. But I just.
Jackie Oshry
Hold on. I'm gonna sneak carrot cake in. Their carrot cake's not delicious. I understand.
Claudia Oshry
No, carrot cake is. It's honestly the cornerstone of my argument.
Jackie Oshry
Like, you can't. Can't you go, like, elsewhere with your hard cake?
Claudia Oshry
You can't. You cannot take carrot cake. Okay? My entire argument is gonna crumble like carrot cake if you take carrot cake out. So I have to include.
Jackie Oshry
Okay, so this is where we agree to disagree.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah. And you know what? If we're. As long as we're disagreeing, like, I don't mind, like, a little piece of fruit after my ice cream cake. What? You know, like what? Yeah, like sometimes at a restaurant, like one of my favorite restaurants in the city, like, whenever people are like, where should I go to dinner? I always say, gemma. I think it's like the best Italian food. And I never really get dessert there. Even though people love their tiramisu. I'm not crazy about tiramisu. But they do have fresh strawberries and whipped cream. And after, like, a big, heavy bowl of pasta, it is quite refreshing. Like, I. I hear it, you know, I see it. I kind of like it.
Jackie Oshry
I can't believe that you did that to me.
Claudia Oshry
But it's important to note, eating fruit just, like, is unacceptable. It's like, you have to. You can only eat fruit when you're really full.
Jackie Oshry
You know something else to say about fruit.
Claudia Oshry
What?
Jackie Oshry
And it's like, there are a few times in my life when I do happen to eat fruit, and the occasion calls for fruit. Maybe, like, summer's afternoon. Stop putting different fruits in the same bowl.
Claudia Oshry
I agree.
Jackie Oshry
I agree. Fruit is criminal.
Claudia Oshry
I agree. And the juices. Oh, it's so sick. Sick, sick, sick, sickening. No, not sickening. Sick.
Jackie Oshry
Also, last night, Zach and I ordered dinner. We had such a long, hard day from the move, so I was just like, get the cookies.
Claudia Oshry
Okay.
Jackie Oshry
Have you ever had the. The Quarter Pounder cookies from the Smith?
Claudia Oshry
I don't ever eat at the Smith.
Jackie Oshry
We ordered this.
Claudia Oshry
I fundamentally disagree with their whole okay message. I can't as a chain.
Jackie Oshry
We ordered the Smith and we got these big. The Quarter Pounder cookies. They're three massive cookies. And we just sat in our new living room on the couch. We heated them up and just had warm cookies.
Claudia Oshry
That's so nice.
Jackie Oshry
And it was so nice.
Claudia Oshry
That does sound really nice. I'm actually like, this conversation is making me so hungry.
Jackie Oshry
Okay, we'll wrap it up. Are you ready for our next story?
Claudia Oshry
Sure.
Jackie Oshry
It is some sad royal news. SRN Soil news. Soil sr. What is it? Queen Elizabeth's dorgy, Vulcan dies just two weeks after the death of William and Kate's dog.
Claudia Oshry
Oh, no.
Jackie Oshry
Queen Elizabeth has said goodbye to one of her loving companions. Theo, cover your ears. The 94 year old monarch's dog, Vulcan died at.
Claudia Oshry
Winston, do you ever like sleep weird on your neck and like you literally can't move your neck?
Jackie Oshry
I mean, every day.
Claudia Oshry
How is Theo not crippled like that?
Jackie Oshry
If you're watching on YouTube wonder of the universe.
Claudia Oshry
He seems like that every day on the show and it's like you're dead.
Jackie Oshry
You know who else sleeps like this when given the chance?
Claudia Oshry
Bruno Sweets.
Jackie Oshry
Bruno Sweets.
Claudia Oshry
Maybe it's cavalier thing. Maybe they don't have like a spine or.
Jackie Oshry
No, like Broadman season one.
C
No.
Jackie Oshry
Maybe like, I don't know, they just like the blood draining to their face or something.
Claudia Oshry
You know, it's like if I laid that, like in that position for that long, I would die because all the blood would rush my head.
Jackie Oshry
Totally.
Claudia Oshry
Sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt you.
Jackie Oshry
Vulcan was a dorgy, which is a mix between a corgi and a dachshund. Volgin's death leaves the Queen with just one dog. Another dorgy named Candy. Cute.
Claudia Oshry
That's a terrible name for a dog. Great name for a stripper.
Jackie Oshry
They like, these dogs really had prominence in this season of the crown. And I just, my heart goes out to her because she loves her dogs. Yeah.
Claudia Oshry
I think one of the most interesting things about the crown, I mean about the queen that I learned from the crown was like, how important, important like, just, like, dog life and dog culture is to the queen and the monarchy in general, like, part of being a royal is, like, taking care of dogs.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah.
Claudia Oshry
And that, honestly, I feel like the crown makes being a royal look, like, really unenjoyable and unpleasant. But I would become a royal just to have, like, a gaggle of cavaliers.
Jackie Oshry
Right.
Claudia Oshry
And, like, like, someone else, like, walks, shits, grooms, and, like, they just love.
Jackie Oshry
Me a hundred percent. Anyways, the queen is well known for her love of corgis, but her last dog of the breed, Whisper, died in 2018, so now she has dorgies, which are the combo.
Claudia Oshry
Like, a mix.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah, I know.
Claudia Oshry
I like.
Jackie Oshry
How do you say that without.
Claudia Oshry
There are certain words I will never be able to spell correctly.
Jackie Oshry
Okay.
Claudia Oshry
Guarantee I have no idea how to spell it. And there are certain words I will never be able to pronounce correctly, and Daushund is one of them.
Jackie Oshry
Okay. We are hearing.
Claudia Oshry
My producer is telling me my ear. It is documented. Dachshund. Is that what you said?
C
Dachshund?
Claudia Oshry
No way. No way. It's dachshund. Dachshund. No way. Oh, and by the way, let's just call a spade. Jackie. Let's just call a spade a spade. Adoption is a wiener dog. Like, let's just call it that because that's what it is.
Jackie Oshry
Okay, but what's the kind of dog that Kendall Jenner has? Those, like, big ones that big ones.
Claudia Oshry
I literally knew you were gonna say that.
Jackie Oshry
The ones. I think it's a Rottweiler. Anyone?
Claudia Oshry
A rottweiler is literally, like, a guard dog that could kill you.
Jackie Oshry
I think that's what Kendall has. I saw it on her story last night. But a dachshund is.
Claudia Oshry
Honestly, talking about dog breeds is giving me ptsd.
Jackie Oshry
I just want you guys to know how dachshund is spelled so that you know why. For pronouncing it this way, I would have. You could have said, I'll give you a billion dollars.
Claudia Oshry
It's German. I never would have said dachshund.
Jackie Oshry
I would have went more German.
Claudia Oshry
I would.
Jackie Oshry
I would, like.
Claudia Oshry
Spell it for the people. Spell it for the people. D A, C, H, S, D A C, H, D, S H, U N.
Jackie Oshry
D.
Claudia Oshry
Oh, my God. Okay, so dun you truly learn something new every day from the morning toast. Yesterday it was a slack merger, and today it's dachshund.
Jackie Oshry
That is the craziest news I've ever heard. I, like, need time to process.
Claudia Oshry
What are, like, certain words that you will, like, never spell correctly?
Jackie Oshry
I have a few words, and even my autocorrect is like, what, are you trying to spell this?
Claudia Oshry
Yeah. No, Ben, like, literally can, for the life of him, cannot spell opportunity, right? He sells it. Op E, R, T U I, N, I, T, Y.
Jackie Oshry
And you know what word I can spell? Whatever is like physical, psychic. I can't spell any of those words that are like P, H, Y, C.
Claudia Oshry
Right, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Jackie Oshry
Ever.
Claudia Oshry
I really cannot spell guarantee. Like, I am always like, guarantee. Like, I just cannot figure out.
Jackie Oshry
It'S. It's guarantee.
Claudia Oshry
Why didn't you just scream at me? You scared the shit out of me.
Jackie Oshry
Like, you were like, you know how anti.
Claudia Oshry
Nobody jaggy quaranti.
Jackie Oshry
You know how anti. Culture thrills me.
Claudia Oshry
No, I know. Like, you just.
Jackie Oshry
Theo, it's guarantee.
Claudia Oshry
Oh, my God. Theo's unfazed. Neck broken, Neck snapped, like, whew. That was funny.
Jackie Oshry
Well, now you'll remember how to spell it. Yes, I will guarantee. Fifth and final story. Wow. A little pet biz news. Pbn, are you ready for it?
Claudia Oshry
Yes, ma'. Am.
Jackie Oshry
Petgo has filed to go public as consumers adopt more pets during the pandemic. Wow. So that's just like Big Dog Pet News. Yeah, they will be publicly. They want to be publicly traded again, this time on nasdaq with the ticker. You know what the ticker is? Like, their.
Claudia Oshry
The button.
Jackie Oshry
No, the letters that they're going to use. So, like, if they're publicly be tmt, of course their ticker is going to be pup.
Claudia Oshry
Well, no, I guess they sell other pets besides dogs.
Jackie Oshry
W o o f woof.
Claudia Oshry
Oh, my God. That's so. Oh, sorry, Theo. I didn't mean to wake you up. That is so cute. But you know what? And maybe this is gonna be, like, crazy. Something about, like, mass commercial businesses, like, around pets, like, gives me a pit. Like, I just don't want to know what the. What they do to the pets at petco.
Jackie Oshry
You know what I mean? I was at a Petco, like, very recently, and it was a little pit inducing.
Claudia Oshry
Do you know what I mean? And it's like they say Petco, where the pets go, but it sounds more like Petco, where the pets get treated poorly. Like, I just have a bad feeling about it, you know? But this is not based on any.
Jackie Oshry
Proof, I feel like. Because when there's. When there's so many businesses, like, Petco is so successful, there's probably hundreds of stores and you're bound to have, like, at least one and, you know, maximum, like, a lot, right. Of employees who are not kind towards animals.
Claudia Oshry
Right. No. Then it's just like a quality control problem. On behalf of Petco. I just. And I'm not saying, you know, it's better than. I'm just. I'm not. I don't need proof. I'm just. I get weird vibes from, like, mass market, mass commercial businesses about pets.
Jackie Oshry
I hear what you're saying.
Claudia Oshry
I'm much more of a boutique, like, yeah, mom. And small business. Because they, like, care about their pets where it's like Petco has, you know, they just care about the bottom line.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. I. But I think the person who started it, like, must have cared about pets to, like, devote their whole life.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah.
Jackie Oshry
To the pet industry.
Claudia Oshry
We've been to a Petco only once. There's, like, not actually. There's one in the city. It's really far.
Jackie Oshry
Is it?
Claudia Oshry
Yeah. I just buy everything online, like, if you, like. Whoever invented Chewy is an absolute genius.
Jackie Oshry
Chewy.
Claudia Oshry
Chewy. First of all, the name is so cute. Second of all, it's just like Amazon, exclusively for pets. And they have, like, just as good a shipping as Amazon.
Jackie Oshry
And, like, they have just as good of, like, data remembrance where it's like, I don't need to put my address in again.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah.
Jackie Oshry
And my billing and my shipping and my credit card.
Claudia Oshry
And they work with your vet. So it's like if you need certain, like, meds or like, Theo's was on a food for a while that was like, pet prescribed, vet prescribed. It's just like a fabulous product.
Jackie Oshry
Yeah. Very good.
Claudia Oshry
Are they public? Chewy for sure. You think?
Jackie Oshry
I feel like if Peko is not. Chewy is like, newer.
Claudia Oshry
Yeah. But Chewy's digital. Like, digital moves fast, man.
Jackie Oshry
Chewy, the online business for petsmart that went public more than a year ago. Yes.
Claudia Oshry
Thank you.
Jackie Oshry
Has seen its share rise more than 150% so far this year to a market value of 30.3 billion.
Claudia Oshry
I feel like this is a good, like, investment. Yeah. I feel like on my Robinhood. This is not an ad segue. I just do actually use Robinhood. I feel like I should buy some shares of Chewy.
C
You should.
Jackie Oshry
And Chewy's ticker is chwi. Less cute than W I or Y ch W I.
Claudia Oshry
Okay.
Jackie Oshry
Less cute than wolf.
Claudia Oshry
Way less cute.
Jackie Oshry
Always cute, though.
Claudia Oshry
Oh, it's cute.
Jackie Oshry
Okay. Those are the fast five stories. And I do feel as though in some way, shape or form, you needed to know each one of them.
Claudia Oshry
Okay. And I'm really excited because while we don't have a TV recap segment. Today we do have a Kelly's mindless news and it is so mind blowing, like, it may be one of the worst offenses yet.
Jackie Oshry
So I'm little guy. Look at the little guy.
Claudia Oshry
Hi, crunchy man.
Jackie Oshry
Loving the anti.
Claudia Oshry
I'm particularly excited about today's episode. Today's segment of Kelly's mindless news.
Jackie Oshry
Like the fourth of July.
Claudia Oshry
Because of course it is from hello magazine. Like, the number one offender of Kelly.
Jackie Oshry
Ripa and her mindlessness.
Claudia Oshry
And her mindlessness. So here is the headline. Kelly Ripa's stunning beach photo with Mark Consuelos is couple goals.
Jackie Oshry
Okay.
Claudia Oshry
Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos love a beach getaway. Getaway. And while they can't currently jet off for a romantic vacation, they can still reminisce about one. So just the mere concept that one of Kelly Ripa's, like, throwback Thursday posts is getting written up is so absurd. But okay, sure, you would think, like, if it's getting written up, it must be something sensational.
Jackie Oshry
Of course.
Claudia Oshry
The Live with Kelly and Ryan host shared a throwback photo with her shirtless husband on Instagram stories on Thursday. Oh, it's not even a photo post. It was a story. Her Instagram stories getting written up. The Live with Kelly and Ryan host shared a throwback photo with her shirtless husband on Instagram stories on Thursday as she counted down the days until she'd see him next. In the loved up selfie, Kelly is snuggled up behind Mark and they are smiling for the camera. So what do you think? What do you think we're gonna get? We're.

Host: Jackie & Claudia Oshry
Description: Take a bite out of The Toast, weekdays with Jackie & Claudia Oshry.
Jackie Oshry shares exciting news about her recent move, describing the experience as both "exciting" and "treacherous." She praises Roadway Movers for making the process smoother, stating, "They really make it as pleasant as human" ([00:56]). Claudia Oshry echoes this sentiment, mentioning her positive experiences with Roadway Movers over the years. Jackie further engages listeners by offering a discount code, "Jackie10," for 5% off long-distance moves or 10% off local moves, encouraging fans to "start moving and grooving" ([00:57]).
Jackie discusses her transition to a new phone, highlighting the refreshing feeling that comes with new technology. She compares it to the nostalgic experience of setting up a new BlackBerry, though she notes personal differences. Jackie remarks, "I feel like... I'm someone else" ([03:34]), emphasizing the transformative impact of the update. Claudia shares her own experience of revisiting old photos, expressing surprise at the extensive media storage habits, such as her friend Jason having "55,000 photos" on his phone ([04:55]).
In a significant personal update, Jackie reveals that she has changed her Instagram handle from "Jackie O. Problems" to "Jackie Ashrae." She explains the origin of her former handle as a playful take on "white girl problems" from 2011 but expresses a desire to rebrand to better reflect her current persona. Jackie shares her journey to acquire the coveted handle "Jackie O," detailing her unsuccessful attempt to purchase it and the eventual, unanticipated switch to "Jackie Ashrae" by Instagram ([07:04]). Claudia congratulates Jackie, humorously noting the new era with Jackie "wearing all white," symbolizing a fresh start ([08:54]).
The Oshrys delve into a surprising revelation from Cardi B, who admitted in a Billboard interview that her shyness hinders her from reaching out to male rappers for collaborations. Claudia relates deeply, confessing her own shyness around boys and the fear of coming off as "desperate" ([17:07]). Jackie empathizes, adding, "Cardi B may be known for her brazen lyrics, but... she's actually so shy" ([17:18]). They discuss the dynamics of artist collaborations, with Claudia highlighting the reliance on teams to facilitate such partnerships in Hollywood ([17:44]). The conversation concludes with optimism for Cardi B's future collaborations despite her initial hesitations ([20:01]).
The hosts mourn the closure of Radio Disney and Radio Disney Country, effective early 2021, leading to the layoff of 36 employees ([21:10]). Claudia reminisces about the impact of Disney Channel on her upbringing, labeling it the "golden age of Disney" with classics like "Hannah Montana" and "Even Stevens" ([21:36]). Jackie agrees, lamenting the end of an era and discussing how the shift in music consumption has rendered Radio Disney less relevant ([23:08]). They reflect on personal memories associated with Radio Disney, underscoring its significance in their youth ([24:09]).
Jackie introduces the news of Mariah Carey launching her own cookie brand, "Mariah's Cookies," set to release on December 4th. The brand offers a variety of holiday-themed cookies available for delivery through platforms like Grubhub and UberEats ([28:18]). Claudia expresses skepticism about the venture, questioning the innovation behind new cookie flavors like "pumpkin" and "white chocolate cranberry" ([30:43]). The hosts engage in a lighthearted debate about dessert standards, with Claudia advocating for traditional flavors and Jackie defending the novelty offerings ([32:47]). Despite differing opinions, they appreciate the creativity behind celebrity-led food ventures.
In a poignant segment, the Oshrys report the passing of Queen Elizabeth's dorgy, Vulcan, marking the end of her long-standing relationship with her beloved pets ([34:41]). They discuss the importance of dogs in the British monarchy, referencing "The Crown" series and highlighting Queen Elizabeth's enduring love for corgis and, more recently, dorgies ([35:49]). Claudia humorously struggles with the pronunciation and spelling of "dachshund," adding a layer of lightness to the somber news ([37:00]).
Jackie shares the news that Petgo, a pet-related business, has filed to go public, capitalizing on the surge in pet adoptions during the pandemic ([39:46]). The conversation shifts to comparing Petgo with Chewy, an online pet retailer that has seen significant growth, hitting a market value of $30.3 billion ([42:15]). Claudia praises Chewy's convenience and efficiency, contrasting it with traditional pet stores like Petco, which they view skeptically regarding animal treatment ([40:05]). They discuss investment opportunities, with Claudia mentioning Robinhood and Jackie's remarks on Chewy's ticker symbol, "CHWI" ([41:48]–[42:51]). The segment emphasizes the booming pet industry and the rise of digital pet services.
In the "Kelly's Mindless News" segment, Claudia highlights a recent Instagram story posted by Kelly Ripa featuring a throwback beach photo with her husband, Mark Consuelos. Described humorously as "couple goals," the hosts critique the overhyped coverage of such mundane content, emphasizing the triviality of reporting on a simple, loving selfie ([43:19]). Jackie jokes about the simplicity of the photo, suggesting it doesn't warrant extensive media attention ([44:20]). Claudia agrees, lamenting the state of modern-day journalism focused on trivial updates ([44:43]). The segment serves as a satirical take on the sensationalism in celebrity news.
As the episode wraps up, Jackie shares her plans to continue organizing her new apartment, expressing enthusiasm about finalizing the setup and enjoying her new space ([45:24]). Claudia contrasts her proactive approach with her friendlier, more relaxed weekend plans, hinting at a dinner outing and expressing excitement about exploring new restaurants ([45:52]). The hosts encourage listeners to embrace their own weekend activities, whether productive or leisurely.

From significant life changes like moving and rebranding their social media presence to dissecting current events in the music, entertainment, and pet industries, the hosts maintain a relatable and humorous tone throughout.
