Cause like, and I never would have been able to get there if it weren't for the tool of Ozempic and all those GLP-1 medications.

Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I mean, I'm insufferable now. No, I think that so much of my confidence was... I really had to work at it. Do you know what I mean? It was... I don't want to say fake, but... But I just remember one day waking up and deciding to be confident. And slowly by slowly, brick by brick, I built up a sense of confidence that really, it was real, but I do think it was built on a foundation of lies.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And now that I really changed my life, I felt so confident, but I also felt so confident that I was capable of change. I think for many years, I'm such a stubborn person. I didn't think that I was capable of changing anything, let alone this huge thing for me, which has always been my weight, which has kind of been like my Roman empire.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
So I think the fact that I successfully changed something in my life, something bad and turned it into good, like that, and now I know I'm capable of that. Like, bitch, I can do anything. Like, I really can. Yeah.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I think a lot of people let their weight control their lives. I didn't think that I was capable of changing. And now I know I'm capable of that. Like, bitch, I can do anything. Like, I really can. She is a multi-talented entertainment personality. I hope everybody's having a gargy, bargy Monday.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
So I feel like people don't like my answer because when I was like struggling with my self-image, I feel like I'm going to cry now. Sorry. So much of my confidence, I would say like all of it came from the fact that I had a husband or a boyfriend at the time, Beyonce, who loved me so much. And he thought I was like the greatest thing.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And so if he thought it, and look at him, like, I just, I love him so much. And so he thinks I'm so great. Like, that's not that you should get your confidence from a man, whatever. But, like, I did. Just to be loved so unequivocally by somebody who I think is so great, that gave me a lot of confidence. Like, he thought I was the best. He thought I was the smartest. He thought I was the prettiest.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
So, like, I was. Because his opinion is the only one that matters. But also, like, I look at him and I think of him as, like, so... charming, attractive, like who wouldn't want to marry him? And he likes me? Like, oh my God, I must be like the greatest thing ever. And I really feel like so much of my confidence.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And it's so funny because he says that he gets confidence from me, which I feel like really happy that it's a two-way street. But having a relationship that I felt really solid about, but also with somebody who just loved me so much, really, it just made me believe like what he was saying. Do you know what I mean?
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
No, but I will say visually, if you were to just compare me visually now and me visually then, I was very unhealthy. I had a lot of random medical issues that a 25-year-old girl shouldn't be having. So I agree with you that a lot of times we judge people's health based on their weight, and that's not the case for everyone. But to be clear, it was the case for me. I was not healthy.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I did not walk to work. I was really living a very inactive, unhealthy lifestyle. That's not the case for everyone you see who's overweight, but that was 1000% the case for me.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Oh, bitch. Well, now I'm pregnant, so it's kind of reverted back, but so not pregnancy-wise. I just really lead my day with little pockets of activity. I think that going to meetings, going to work, I'm always being like, okay, I'll walk. I worked out before I got pregnant. I worked out three to five times a week.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I would spend my weekends doing things that I enjoy whilst being active, like going for walks in the park with Ben, just making sure that I wasn't rotting in bed as much as I'm capable of because I'm capable of a great deal of rotting. And then with meals, that's really where I probably struggled the most. But just... just trying to be a little bit more well-rounded.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I feel like I eat like a six-year-old. And so I do, like I eat rice and chicken fingers. And so just changing sometimes to like brown rice and grilled chicken, you know, thinking a little bit more, but it's hard because I'm such a picky eater that, you know, I'm not going to be making bronzino on the weekends with like a tapenade, you know, that's never going to happen.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I felt so misunderstood by people. I remember getting married and being like so angry that my dad wasn't going to be there when I was struggling with my self-image. I feel like I'm going to cry now. Sorry.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I don't even know what tapenade is.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I would say I don't feel I really I mean, I've been married for 100 years and we decided to wait to have kids. And I think that because we made that choice, I am now not spending my pregnancy and, you know, hopefully the next year or two mourning a life. I feel like I lived life to the fullest and I really, really waited till I was ready. So the only thing I feel like I'm mourning is my body.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Like, that... Nobody talks enough about, like, what it's like to lose significant weight and then get pregnant. I don't know how I feel about it. I don't have, like, fully fleshed thought out. I'm, like, struggling every single day. But no, I don't... I don't feel sad about, like, a life left behind. I feel like...
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I lived every minute of my twenties, like on the edge of cliffs, going on trips, partying, like doing everything I wanted to do. And when I turned 30 over the summer, I was like, you know what? I'm done. Like, I really feel, and that's what I'm so happy about. Cause yeah, I like see my friends with kids and I'm like, oh, I do wish I had like, you know, joined them.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
But I feel so fulfilled in that one chapter of my life that I'm really ready to start the next chapter.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I would say it was mostly career. I've been working since I'm 18 and I just could not fathom taking time off. And I don't know, it just, it really scared me. It doesn't scare me so much anymore. But also the weight thing played, I could not fathom at my previous weight getting pregnant. I think it would be a...
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
high-risk pregnancy, one, and two, like, I think it would take me to a new weight, a new category that I might not be able to come back from. So I always knew I had to figure it out before. And Ozempic came to me at, like, the perfect time.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Jay Shetty. The one, the only, Jay Shetty.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
It's more, you can conceive it, right?
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Yes.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Like, as a woman, it's not like you give birth and then you go back to work. It's like a two-year thing from conception to the... Like, till you really start to feel like yourself again, especially when your job is, like, being public and people have so much to say about your body. Like, I don't necessarily... didn't want to put myself through that. Like I really wasn't ready for it.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
So I cannot recommend enough waiting until you're really ready. And I know that that's a privilege, but like I am so pleased with how it's worked out so far. And I'm really, really glad that I waited because I remember I always used to say like I wanted to have kids when I was 25. And I remember sitting on my friend's couch and I was like drunk.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And he was like, by the way, like, when do you want to have kids? I'm like, when I'm 25. And he was like, how old are you? I'm like, 25. So maybe when I'm 26. And I don't know, I always, I've always, always known I love kids. Like my niece and my nephews are my whole life. Like I've always known that I wanted to be a mom. And then I started to get a little worried because I didn't feel it.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I'm like, oh crap. Like I was so annoyed at the biological hawk and I was so annoyed at COVID. It like took two years for me that like maybe if COVID hadn't happened, I would have been living my life those two years and been ready when I was 28. But I was like, crap, no. And I got a little worried that I was never going to be ready because I know it's something that I want.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And that's why I feel so grateful that I very naturally came to the conclusion that I'm ready. My husband was amazing about it. If I had said to him five years ago, let's have a kid, he'd say, okay. If I said to him this, he was really letting me lead, which I so appreciate. He never put pressure on me to either wait longer or hurry up. Same with our families. Nobody really tortured us about it.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And I know a lot of girls get like, endless harassment from their parents and their in-laws. I'm like, I didn't get that. And I'm so grateful because I really came to the conclusion on my own. So no, I don't look around and I don't look at social media and see people on trips and flying out of planes and think, oh, I wish that was me. I'm like, you know what? I did my time.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Honestly, that video makes me tired. I want to go take a nap.

Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I'd love to see women into male-dominated fields.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Yeah.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I know.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I feel like jealousy is a really powerful emotion. And I started to feel like I might be ready to start a family when like I would hear about other girls that I knew, friends, people telling me. And up until that point, when people would tell me, I would be so happy for them. Like I would cry, like really genuine.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And I remember the first time it was like December of 2023, one of Ben's friends who his fiance, excuse me, wife is one of my good friends. They told us that they were pregnant and I was so happy for it, but like I was a little jealous. And then I was like, oh, that's interesting. And that's why I feel like it's so important to listen to yourself and be able to identify emotions.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Because I was like, okay, let's jot that down. I told Ben, I'm like, by the way, I'm a little jealous of Natalie. He was like, oh, that's great. And that was in December. That was actually when I decided to get off of Zympic. And I was like, okay. Good to know. And then I just started like listening to my feelings.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And when other people would tell me, I'd be like, damn, now I'm starting to feel a little left behind. And so really it was my own emotions that told me I was ready. And I've always been very good at like identifying my own emotions and like thinking, how does this make me feel? Am I pissed? Am I happy? And that's really, I would say, how I knew.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
But it was a struggle.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Yes, I got married very young. Me and Ben met when I was 18. We got engaged when I was 21, so we dated all throughout college. And then 23, yeah, when I got married.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
It just wasn't even a question. Honestly, I would have gotten married sooner. I know it sounds so crazy, and it is. But we met when I was 18, so I was a freshman in college. And then when I was a senior, I wasn't allowed to get engaged in college. It was like, girl, get a degree, and then we could talk. So I graduated in May, and then Ben and I got engaged in June.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I know it sounds – but it was four years. I was like, bitch, I'm ready. Let's go. I knew from day one that Ben was the love of my life. It took him, I want to say, like, three months to know that I was the love of his life. But it's okay. Some people, you know, we're all on our different journeys. We all have our own purposes.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Yeah, no, I try not to, like, hold resentment. I'm like, oh, yeah, I remember that time. You didn't think I was so cute. I'm like, okay, you didn't like me. I don't know. I just knew. And it's so crazy because we met when I'm 18. I'm 30 now. So there is a huge part of my life where Ben isn't a factor. But I don't even remember. It's, like, before Ben and after Ben. Like, I don't remember anything.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
It's weird if I tell him a story and he wasn't there. I'm like, ew, where were you? I actually feel like we're related. And we might be, but whatever. It's the craziest thing. I can't really explain how I knew. But I think when we first met, I was so excited to have a boyfriend. Because I loved watching movies growing up. I'm like, oh my god, I'm literally Cher from Clueless.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I finally have a boyfriend. And I was so obsessed with the idea of having a boyfriend and the fact that there was this person who wanted to spend time with me. And I was so excited about it. And then I feel like our relationship, we really grew up together. So... the longer we were together and the more time we would spend, it was like becoming abundantly clear.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Like we really had the same values and we really are the same person. And it's so funny because Ben is so funny, but he's married to me. So it's like, good luck. And I would say if he had married anyone else, he would be the funniest guy in every room. But people say to me, people have known Ben for like three years. Like, by the way, Ben's funny. I'm like,
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
No, I know, but he can't get a word in with me. He's just the best. And I honestly, I know it sounds so crazy to have gotten married so young. And when we were getting married, I grew up in a modern Orthodox Jewish community. So it really wasn't that crazy. Most of my friends have been married around the same age as me.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
But when I would meet like people, you know, regular secular folk, they would think it was so crazy. And I remember like being offended when people would say that. I'm like, you don't know me and Ben. You don't know. Yeah. But let me tell you something. The older I've gotten, the more I learn. Like, we were crazy. Yeah. We've changed so much, you know?
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And when people say, like, not to get married young, like, they're right for that. They're saying it for a reason. I think that the way it worked out for me and Ben is really not how it works out for most people because I'm so different. Oh, my God. I used to be so annoying, if you can imagine it. Like... I was just such a different person and so was Ben, you know?
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I was like very insecure and I don't know, I just was weird and I grew up, I think, into a person that's amazing, but I grew up to be somebody a little different and it's possible that I would have grown into somebody that Ben didn't like and it's possible that Ben would have grown into, he was 21, that he would have grown into somebody that I wasn't particularly into, but we really made a conscious choice to like grow up together.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Oh, my God. Best intro ever. Do it again.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
So I understand why people said that and they were probably right for that, but... We're different. Sorry. We just are. We are.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I love you, by the way. Like when we met, I'm not gonna lie, I was like a little, I'm like, who's this guy? Because I wasn't super familiar. I read your book. And I was like, okay, let's see what it's about. I feel like sometimes when someone becomes really known with a lot of celebrity friends, it can be like a little smoke and mirrors. And I was like, honestly, I'm suspicious.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Yeah. I also think Ben's a really patient person. And I definitely did not know who I was literally until I would say a year or two ago. And I think I led with that like sort of insecurity. And he was very patient with me. And he was still like dealing and growing with his own thing. But I don't know if in those early years if I was like the best version of myself.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And I think that he really saw in me. who like my potential and was very measured and really patient. So it takes two people to tango and he definitely is like the kinder patient one in the relationship. And I'm a little bit more like rough around the edges, if you can imagine. And he, I would attribute a lot of our marital success to him.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
He's the best.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
He's downstairs, obviously on a call. Like, let me tell you, my husband is always on a call. I don't know who the hell he's talking to. Literally this morning, he doesn't answer the phone for 40 minutes. I'm like, where are you? He's like, I'm walking the dog. I'm on a call. Who the hell are you talking to? I can't.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Thank you. I will say one other reason why you shouldn't get married young is I have oddly made so many lifelong friends much later in life, and these people weren't even at my wedding. It's the weirdest thing. And some of these bitches at my wedding, like, girl, I don't know you. Get out of here. And they're in my pictures and shit.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
That's my fault.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
How weird.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
So much. And I feel like there's a point in your life where you have made all of your friends. And 21 was not that for me at all.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And so many of my best lifelong friends are people I've met through work.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I, like my, some of my best friends, like Brian and Taylor, like I met, they were guests on our show. You meet a lot of people and like, you know, the reputation of podcasters, content creators, influencers, like is what it is for a reason. Like some of them are insufferable, but some of them are just like the most fabulous people you'll ever meet in your entire life.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And that's my friends, Brian and Taylor. And they were not at my wedding. And sometimes I'll think about that and I'll be like, oh, I should have waited.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I should have listened to everybody.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I know, but, you know, they do say that's a curse. I don't know if that's just for the Real Housewives, but every Real Housewife who has ever renewed her vows ended up divorced.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Yeah.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I don't plan on renewing my vows. Also, I feel like vow renewal is like an inherently non-Jewish thing. Like Jewish people don't renew their vows. I don't know a single Jewish person that's renewed her vows.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I don't know if it's like in the Bible or anything. I just feel like it's not culturally Jewish.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
this guy's coming in and you were so kind the second you walked in it was very disarming I was like oh never mind I take back like I love him and we had such a great conversation and I actually loved so many things about your book because your book was like really heavy on relationships and I just loved it and ever since then I've just like loved you oh yeah that genuinely means the world to me and you made me feel so comfortable that day because I was like guys like you guys I was talking to my team and I was like you guys listen to her and I was like
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Oh, I'm so with her on that. Although the only reason I would do it would be to get new pictures because I was like so ugly at my wedding. It's kind of like one of my biggest regrets.

Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
She's evolved.

They're not like, but I guess they are. It's a time capsule. You know, it's a moment in time. Not a moment I want to remember.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I generally just lead with what I'm comfortable with. Like if I wouldn't be ashamed to tell the person next to me on the train, and I don't really feel shame about a lot of things. I feel like maybe that's something I could and should work on. But no, I would say the Ozempic thing is like the one thing I really had to push myself to share. But for the most part, I share what's comfortable.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And I'm just, I'm an open person. I think that some people find that inconceivable, but I just am.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Because you think you get rewarded for it.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Yeah, I guess then like I wouldn't categorize myself as a particularly vulnerable person because when I share things, even things that are deeply personal, I don't feel like it's a big deal. Do you know what I mean? I'm just an – that's just how I am.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
So I would feel weirder not telling people things. Like even when I was trying to conceive with Ben, I do a podcast every day and I'm always talking about what's going on in my life and my marriage. And it was this huge part that I wasn't sharing and it felt so deceitful. It was so foreign to me because I'm so used to saying, yeah, last night I did X, Y, and Z and my underwear is purple.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Like I'm such a sharer that actually not sharing is what makes me uncomfortable.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
You know what? It's like a Jewish superstition thing.

Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Even myself, like today on the podcast, I was like, I got to go, I got to poop. And it's like, why would I say that? And just say it again. Do you know what I mean?
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I think that that's something I learn as I get older, but it also makes it complicated when sharing is your life. Yeah. And I feel like there used to be a time when I would literally be sharing a piece of content every 30 minutes. I would have a cocktail and post, which is like so dangerous and stupid. Yeah.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Oh my God. I used to be like blackout in a drive-thru at Whataburger in Texas, like blackout ordering like a crispy chicken biscuit, like whatever. And it was just, I looked so scary and I had ketchup all over my face. And I think that's why people, you know, that's why I have a lot of the following that I do. They loved that life, but that's not my life anymore.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And it occurred to me like several years ago that I didn't have to
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
share every thought that I have one it was getting me in trouble and two like yeah some things can just be like thoughts or memories or things that you keep to yourself and so I do feel like my strategy has shifted but it's tough when that's also how you make a living yeah you know yeah yeah that's yeah so how do you balance that I'm working on it yeah it's hard it is hard I think that I've gotten much better and I look at it a lot like this is my job we're putting out content like for the job but it doesn't have to be like the most authentic 100% 360 degree view of my life like I can have things for myself
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Oh, wow. That's a good question. I don't know if I would say there's one misconception. I would say like though largely, and there was a period a few years ago, because I remember writing about this in my book where I felt so misunderstood by people.

it's good to know you're working on it that's the point right it's like none of us have figured it out no if I went back and watched like an Instagram story from 2019 I would die I would die I was out of control like I just used to say so many things like stop talking okay stop like not everything needs to be shared

Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
That's a great question. I almost like didn't have time to figure it out. So I started this Tumblr in freshman year of college, which is when people figure out what they want to do. And it very slowly but also quickly became something I was making money off of. So much so by the time I graduated, I was making like –

And I feel like unless you were watching my podcast every day and listening to everything else thing that I said, you didn't really get me because I feel like I come off as like a lot of different things. So like a little crazy, a little outlandish, but I feel like the person that I really am is like a sister, a wife. I feel like kind of gets lost in the mix.

sponsored Instagram posts for a fee that would have been my salary if I ended up with like a job in media. And at the time, like content creation was not a job. So when I made the decision, it just made no sense like to sit at a desk and earn a living that was comparatively small to what I was pulling from my Instagram, but people were just like, they couldn't believe it.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And they're like, it's not gonna last forever. And I'm like, maybe, but maybe what if I just ran with it? And it was really like inconceivable to people that I was not getting a job post-grad and that I would be like on my phone. And I understand why, because right after that, I was making a really good living, but I was doing nothing.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Like I was home all day and I was watching a lot of TV and I was like recapping it and writing funny blog posts and I was making money. But I was not doing anything. Like I had no structure to my day. I did not set an alarm. And – it was lovely, but it was not fulfilling. And I knew that it wasn't a sustainable way.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And that's why when we started the podcast, I loved it so much for a million different reasons, but it gave me structure. It gave me a day. Like, and now even to this day, I very much operate like a Monday to Friday, nine to five. I work 40 hours a week, like every other American. Like,
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And I think some people run from that sort of convention, but when you didn't have it, it was like kind of horrible. So I crave that sort of structured stability. Like seriously, if you're looking to answer an email for me after five o'clock, I'm not answering. Like I have boundaries and I love that my life kind of mirrors that conventional work life.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
But that was a goal that Jackie and I like set because this line of work, well, yes, it can be very lucrative. It, is kind of nuts and it can be a little unstable. You have a month where you get a ton of work and a month where you don't get. So it was fun for a girl who was 21, but I knew it wasn't going to be like a sustainable way to live.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
But the funny thing is that I think there's like a large, you know, misconception that like I work an hour a day. People are always saying that to me. Like, It's like when you say someone from SNL works an hour a week. Like, well, no, you see them an hour a week. You see me one hour a day on the show. But there's so much that goes into running a show of that size.

Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And also, it's not the only thing that I do. I'm not bothered so much that people think I don't work. Like, whatever, you know? Like, sorry you're dumb. You don't know how the industry works. Like, bitch, I work hard, okay? Yeah.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Oh, my God. Okay. So, yes, like in the sense that throughout high school and like summers in high school, I was a camp counselor. I worked at a toy store when I went to college. All through four years of college, I worked. I had an internship, like a paid five-day-a-week internship at a media company. It was an internship, but it was structured like a corporate job.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
So, yes, I did work in a corporate office for four years, never like full, full-time because I was a part-time student. And I probably would have worked at that media company post-grad if I didn't decide to become a full-time content creator. So like, yes and no.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Sometimes I like to think, I'm like, and I'm always like joking about how funny and sweet and kind and beautiful I am, but I really do believe that about myself. And I feel like just because I always lead with like humor and a little bit of like outrageousness, I do feel like that softer, very, what I think is genuine, gets a little bit lost.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
That working at a toy store was not for fucking me. Like seriously, gift wrapping is hell on earth. I still can't do it. And honestly, when anybody asked me to wrap a gift, I actually have trauma from that fucking store. Really? Yeah. It was horrible. Like that stupid gift wrapping section. Like no matter how many times somebody showed me how to do it, like I could not fucking do it.

Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I was trying to put forth this idea that maybe you picked up all these really cool skills that help you in your career today, but... Actually, I will say, like, working at a toy store, like, having to talk to strangers, like, who you don't know and, like, pretend like you know what you're talking about, that builds character. That builds, actually, like, a great personable vibe.

In the corporate space, I don't feel like I learned much, honestly. I... I liked the free lunch. Like it was amazing. It was one of those big companies that gives you free lunch. And there was snacks everywhere, like free snacks. I was always eating goldfish and M&Ms. And I liked, I don't know, actually, my sisters worked at the same company.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
It was this huge company with like different media companies within it. So they all worked at different companies. So we all would have lunch together. I have very fond memories of that time. And I think it's a good corporate like media, especially that's like a lot of women.

Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
It's a good environment to learn how to talk to people, learn how to deal with like workplace antics and people's personalities and And sometimes I do miss, like, I think there's a lot of stability that comes with a corporate job, especially when you're thinking about, like, motherhood. I mean, some of these bitches over here with their six months paid maternity leave, like, that is a joy.

Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And their corporate health insurance. There are a lot of things about, like, what people consider a boring corporate life that actually as somebody without a lot of, like, without a lot of that, I'm very envious of, especially when I'm, like, entering this phase of my life. Like, me and my husband both have our own companies. Like, we don't have maternity leave. We leave and the company suffers.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Do you know what I mean? Yeah, yeah. There's no built-in... We have our own two-person health insurance. It's expensive and it sucks, okay? Like, people... There is a little bit of that privilege from the corporate life. And I know people who are in corporate would look at someone like me and be like, oh, I always wanted to be my own boss. And it's great. But, you know, there's no insurance.

We've put more value on the ladder, the entrepreneurship.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
But to be clear, I feel like we did people a disservice when we did that because there is something lovely about a boring job that doesn't keep you up all night, that you can set boundaries with, that pays your bills, and you don't overrun the company. If things are going south, that's literally not my problem. There is a piece in that. You don't have as much creative control. Who cares?

Before, when things started to really blow up for me, but it wasn't this like standardized economy like it is now. Like there's a formula. You blow up on Instagram, you get an agent, you get a manager, you get a rate card, you get a media kit. Like, no, that was like not the case for me. So when things started to work really quickly, I was doing all my own deals. I did not have a publicist.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I did not have a manager. I did not have an agent. I didn't have an assistant. It was literally just me. And it was manageable because it was my full-time job. But I don't know. shit about fuck. Like I'm literally 17, like somebody help. So I was just kind of making it up as I went. And I think people really underestimated me because I was advocating on my own behalf. I was 18.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I'm much better now, but I used to have like a really thick Long Island accent. And I was just like, every other word out of my mouth is like, and totally, and it's not necessarily giving you, you know, business woman. So I would get underestimated a lot. And it was a unique time. Now the girlies and boys, but mostly girlies who end up doing what I do now, it's kind of all set up for them.

Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
But at the time it wasn't a thing. People like a brand would reach out and based on like, if it was a brand I heard of, like one of the first brands I ever worked with was Burger King. And they're like, how much would you want to? And I was like, a thousand dollars. And they were like, okay. And I was like, bitch, a thousand dollars. I bought a purse.

I was like, and then I forgot, like I had to pay taxes, but whatever. And that's another thing, by the way, when you do this line of work and nobody teaches you how to do your taxes, not me getting a bill from the government, like in 2018 for like a hundred thousand dollars in unpaid taxes. Yeah. And my biggest fear is going to jail. But yeah, that's another thing they don't tell you.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Nobody teaches you. You kind of just have to learn along the way. Now I feel like it's pretty set up where if you join this line of work, there are certain business managers and accounts who know how to do this. But at the time when I was getting started, it was like, girl, you're on your own. Good luck.

Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Yes, I feel like your job title definitely, like, you lead with that. And people have conceptions about that before. And I feel the same way, like, coming from a comedy space, especially when you make jokes that, like, sometimes are a little, you know. People are like, oh, she's crazy. She's radical.

No. If only I was that interesting. When I was a senior in high school, I went to go visit my sister Jackie at college, and it was a flight. So I packed up my things. So I grew up in Manhattan, so I didn't have a license at the time, which used to make traveling really hard because I didn't have any form of identification. I used to give them my high school ID.

Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
They're like, this is not legally admissible. So I'd be like, I don't have a license. Sorry, I'm literally 17 and I don't have a driver. I don't have a driver's license. And for some reason they pulled my bag and they were going through my wallet and they found my fake ID. And they were like, I thought you didn't have. Now I realize they were like doing this to scare me.

But at the time I thought I was really going to jail. They brought a cop out. She wants to call my parents. She's swiping my hands.

I don't know. I mean, I had gotten a manicure, so I imagine there was like some chemicals on my hands. But it was so, they were really trying to scare me. And this police officer was like, listen, I think you're a good kid. I'm going to let you go. And I ran for my fucking life. I was so afraid. But I was never, I didn't break the law. I didn't say that this was my idea.

Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I have two extremely important pieces of advice. If you find yourself wanting to get into this line of work, like I don't care who you are, where you're from, what you've done, delete all your old social media posts. Like none of it is going to age well. It's going to come back to bite you in the ass and it's going to ruin your life.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Like if I had to go through what I went through, like everybody found my old tweets and they were like, oh my God, she's fucking crazy. Delete your tweets. I can't believe people are still having their tweets. Girl, delete your tweets. Like, stop. That's the first.

Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Second of all is every dollar you make, put 50 cents in a savings account for your taxes because that's, depending on where you live, like, that's what it is. It's half. And the good thing is sometimes you save too much and then you get a little leftover. But just know, if somebody pays you $100, you got 50.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Well, taxes have ruined my life. Oh, tell me about it. Before I had a business manager trying to do my own taxes with an old school accountant who I think I got from a family member, they had no idea what I did for a living. And so I was underpaying. I was underreporting. I was not getting any 1099s from the brands that I worked with. It was such a mess. It was the wild, wild west.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
So much so that years later, I got that huge bill. And it was the worst thing to ever happen to me. I almost had to go on a payment plan with the government. It was so crazy. And I think that happens a lot in entertainment, especially this new wave of social media entertainers. So finding an accountant, a business manager, or teaching yourself, that's fine.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence

Well, I actually was always negotiating on my own behalf. Because I always found that like so many of the girls who worked at media companies, worked at agencies, these account managers, were followers of mine, were listeners to the toast. And that's always worked on my own behalf. Actually, I think like a huge demographic of my following is media girls.

Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence

You can record a podcast on your phone. The voice memo app actually is very high quality audio. It's good enough for a starting podcast.

No, we're afraid of being judged, right? We want to put something out that's perfect. But it's like, you don't get far without people making fun of you. Like, I'm sure my old post used to get sent around my high school. Like, oh my God, look what Claudia's doing. Cringe, cringe, cringe. Well, it's not so cringe anymore.

Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
ordinary in your personal life so you can be violent in your creative or artistic life because it's like you can't have a million balls in the air at one time but so to have a very um I don't want to say regular because I feel like that has a negative connotation but like a very peaceful very settled private life it really does allow you to you know for me it's my work for anyone it could be something else just to like I don't know fuck shit up you know

At the same time. And I feel like I'm always leading, obviously, because what I do is like just try to make people laugh, which I love. So I'm always leading with that. And I do feel like my sort of sweet, sensitive side, and I'm very sensitive. I feel like I don't show that a lot. And I don't want to show it that much because I feel like on the internet, it's so toxic.

Yeah, I know. And I'm unique in that. I think some people have different family issues. I could never, I mean, look at how many female podcasting duos that it's every day we're talking about another one breaking up. Me and Jackie will be podcasting till the day that we die.

Yeah, I mean, it's so intertwined. But interestingly enough, when Jackie and I were growing up, we're four sisters total from top to bottom. Like there's six years between us. So we're all really tight. And we were all really tight growing up. You know, there were different dynamics as we got older.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Like in the beginning, it was always the two older sisters and the two younger sisters, me and Margo. Like we were just sort of divided by age. And Olivia and Jackie would like leave us out. And me and Margo were just like sharing a room. So we were like, okay, whatever. I guess it's just us. And then as we got older, my interest started to align a lot more with Olivia's.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And then Jackie and Margo became like really similar and really close. So the dynamics of what we shifted, but the dynamics when we were kids were never Jackie and I. We actually probably got along the least. We didn't fight. We didn't hate each other. We just were not drawn to one another. So I would say we were probably the least close out of all four.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Not that we had issues, but we were just not, I don't think we understood each other. Jackie's very reserved. Jackie's very quiet, but not shy. Quiet. Me, I'm spreading my legs for everybody. I'm like, what's up? Who you want to talk to? Let's go here. Let's go there. So I think that I thought she was like, you know, weird and she thought I was weird. We didn't understand one another.

And then when we started to work together, our differences ended up, you know, working in our favor. It made the conversations on the podcast more dynamic. And we just very naturally became so close through work. But also we were talking all the time, you know.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Zero. Every single episode is completely off the cuff.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
We have like five topics that we need to hit every day, whatever the news of the day is, but everything else is completely off the cuff. Like we've never once had a conversation. Sometimes we used to sit on FaceTime for like an hour before we would start recording to get set up and we would just end up talking and we actually felt like it was ruining the show.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
If you open up about a vulnerability or something, people throw it back in your face and they use it against you. So I'm also really protective of my own peace.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
She calls me at 10.30 and we start recording at 10.31. Like we do not, because we don't want to waste any of the, we'll never recreate a conversation. That's so fake. Like we just go for it.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And she lives in a different state. So we have a lot to catch up on.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
She moved, I think, 2021. And I was like, okay, it's the end of the show. Like, we'll do remote, but who the hell wants to listen to remote podcasters? Like, it's so COVID-y and it sucks. And I knew that it was the beginning of the end and I was freaking a little bit. And let me tell you what's the best thing to ever happen to us. One, because of COVID, we were forced to really invest in the tech.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
So there's actually no delay. There's no lag. A lot of people don't know that we live in separate states. So I think a lot of times people are shocked to find out that Jackie doesn't live in New York anymore, which makes me so happy. And two, a little bit of the distance physically has benefited us greatly because we're no longer on top of each other.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And we get to, like you say, have these natural catch-up conversations that... we might not be having if she lived down the block from me, which she did for many years. So it's actually been the best thing to happen to the show. And I thought it was going to be like the beginning of the end.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Oh my God, when we just laugh, laugh, laugh, laugh, laugh. Like sometimes we are just so silly that I don't even think we're speaking English anymore. Like it's just that sisterly thing where you can really only act so nuts with your sister. Those are the best episodes, like true belly laughs.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I feel like when I first started opening up, I feel like the first thing I really opened up about, because I share everything on the internet and it's not hard. I don't feel like I'm digging deep to share. If I meet you for the first time, I'll tell you my life story. That's just how I am.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
That's a good question. No, actually. It's so routine to us now.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
That's kind of sad. We should be like, listen, that was so funny. No, we don't do that.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And we're not trying so hard. Like, we're just talking.

Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I agree that podcasting is a skill and it's a talent because I think every, I mean, the running joke is like, you know, everybody has a podcast, not everybody should, but there are a lot of failed podcasts. And I think that a lot of people think like, yeah, I could talk for an hour a week. I actually don't think you could.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
It is an art, especially with a co-host, especially as an interviewer, when to talk, when to listen, when to stop. And so a lot of people don't possess that skill. And I appreciate you saying that because it's definitely a skill the same way like, you know, any other job is a skill.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Like if you're a mathematician, you know, you need a certain set of skills and podcasting definitely requires that too.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
It's, this is always who I've been like very leading with like, I've always loved attention. I've always loved to talk. I've always loved to make people laugh, but I do think that I have practiced and rehearsed a little bit in recent years. Just knowing when to listen. That's always been my... That's the biggest critique people have of me on the show, and they're totally valid in that.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I never let my sister talk. I talk over people. I'm sure I've done it to you. I'm so sorry. And I'm really trying. It's one of my worst skills, personally and professionally. I do it at a dinner party. It's so annoying. And when other people do it, I'm like, oh my God, she didn't shut up. And people are like, bitch, that's you. So I am working on that. I used to be much worse.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
So I've never felt like I was sharing something that I wasn't comfortable sharing until I shared my journey with Ozempic, which was so personal to me. And, you know, I got... a lot of support for it, but there were also people, you know, you're stealing drugs from diabetics. Like literally, no, I'm not. And there was like a lot of, there's a lot of discourse around that.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
So it's a work in progress. But it's important to know your skills, but it's also important to know what you're not good at. And I know that I'm not good at knowing when... it's my time to listen. Like right now.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
No, but I know it's insane. And if you can believe it, I used to talk so much faster.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Yeah, you're very measured.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Jay, I need you to listen to episodes of The Toast from like 2019. I used to swallow full paragraphs. Like I don't even know what I was saying. You think it's fast now. To me, this is me being so much better. It's amazing. It used to be really bad.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
You'll tell me after we stop recording.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
You know what's so funny? The more attention you get, the less you want it. And so I think as somebody who was an attention-seeking whore growing up my whole life, to end up in a line of work where you get a lot of it, it's fulfilling for a second. And then it's like enough. And I actually feel like I say I'm an attention whore. I'm actually really not so much anymore.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I got the attention that I wanted and it felt good, but it didn't solve all my problems like I thought it was going to. So not that anybody who's, you know,
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
is an attention seeker should get the attention because then it'll it's kind of a problem that fixes itself um but I'm really not um I think when people meet me like on the street sometimes they're a little uh taken aback how actually I'm not like a dancing monkey like I'm not so crazy all the time like making jokes on like I I actually and definitely as I've gotten older like a little bit more pulled back you know I'm still a little nuts more than the average person but not not I think as much as people would expect yeah what part of your confidence are you still working on I'm really not honestly
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Um, do people who struggle with their weight need medication? Are they stealing medication from diabetes patients? So, um, I felt like scared to share that one. Cause I think the emotion I felt most was like, I was really embarrassed that one, I'd gotten myself to a place where I required a medication.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I feel very confident in all aspects of my life. I know that I'm great at my job. I know I'm a great wife. I know I'm literally gorgeous. I don't feel like I'm lacking confidence in any area, honestly.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I have a lot of other problems, though, but not that.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Oh, girl, where do I begin? Okay. What would I say is my biggest problem? Okay. I actually would say my biggest problem is sometimes my humor can be mean. And I think that's like the worst type of humor. And I'm actually really working on it. Like when you poke fun at someone, sometimes I feel like I really take it too far.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Like it's okay to like think something and not say it because I've noticed that a lot that I sometimes border on mean and I don't like being mean. That's not funny to me. I think some people feel like they have to be mean in order to be funny. And that's not true. I can be funny without being mean.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Yes. Like sometimes I'll say something, I'll be like, damn. That was rough, you know? And so I'm aware of it and I'm really trying to stop.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I don't know if I will. At least I'm aware of it.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And two, I did feel a little pushed to share just because it was so obvious to people that I was on it. And you know, every Nobody would let me live. They wouldn't let me sleep for five minutes. They're like, she's on Ozempic, she's on Ozempic, she's on Ozempic. And when I did share, I'm ultimately so glad that I did, but I didn't feel at first like it was my choice necessarily.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I mean, that doesn't mean that I don't see a picture of myself and literally want to die, but I try not to place too much value on that because there are other parts of me that are worthy, probably more worthy than how I look. But I am a shallow person. I do place a lot of emphasis and value on my physical appearance.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
It's actually like a new thing. I think since losing weight, I've kind of become obsessed with it. And that's like one thing that I've gained during my weight loss journey that I don't like. The obsession with how I look. Because before, like I knew I didn't look great. So like whatever, you know, I worked on other things.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
But then I started to really like the way that I looked on the Ozempic journey and I kind of became obsessed with it. Like I used to weigh myself and be like, I mean, it's not great, but whatever. Then I would lose weight and... when I would weigh myself and it wasn't exactly what I wanted, I would be so hard on myself. And I used to not care about that.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
So that's actually something I'm working on. But with a pregnancy, like it's a problem for later me.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I can't fix everything all at once. Okay. I'm not Jay Shetty.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Yes. That's definitely how I feel with my weight.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
But it does, not that you want people to feel poorly about themselves, but seeing someone whom you perceive to be on top of the world talk about how they perceive themselves and it's not necessarily like the best. There is like solace in that. Like even people who are killing it and rich and famous, like even they hate themselves. So who cares if I do, you know?
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
It's so funny because, you know, I lost my dad when I was in the eighth grade. Or excuse me, the ninth grade. Like literally the first month of high school. Worst time ever. And it was extremely hard. And I actually feel like being younger, I was able to bounce back a little bit more. I remember going through that and really, I had just transferred schools. And then my dad passed.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And I really didn't want to be known as like the girl with the dead dad. So I remember making an active effort to get back to my life. And I leaned so heavily into my sisters. And that's really why my sisters and I are so close. And my friends and extra school. And I really... And that's just being a kid, right? You're more susceptible. You're more adaptable. You just bounce back.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And I've found when friends of mine now are losing parents, it's so much harder. You're an adult. You understand the importance of life. You have kids of your own. And so not that it's the same at all, but losing my dog at 29 was the first experience with grief as an adult. And let me tell you, it is so much harder. And this was a dog, not a human being.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And now when I look back, I wish I shared sooner. It's like the greatest journey I went on. I have so many positive things to say about it. I think when I tell people, it makes them feel like a little less embarrassed about their journey. Because look at me, I'm so fabulous and even I did it. And I wish I did it sooner and I loved every minute of the journey. But at the time, I was so embarrassed.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
The difference was, and I have long wondered, my dad passed away overnight. Like, he was not sick. He had a heart attack, and he died before he even got to the hospital. Like, completely kind of freak accident.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And people always talk about, like, is it better, you know, for someone to die like that or to get a chance to say goodbye to somebody who has, like, a terminal illness, but you have to watch them suffer for months. And I feel like there's no right answer. Just everybody thinks their own. And I never really knew what the answer was. But with Theo, he had terminal cancer.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And we ended up putting him down. But so we lived with the cancer, I want to say, for like two or three weeks. Like really not a long time. It was the worst time of my life. Like it was worse than when he actually had died. Like seeing someone you love so much be in such pain, it's not worth being able to say goodbye, honestly. So oddly, that experience brought me peace with my dad.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Like, yeah, I didn't get to say goodbye. I didn't have to watch him suffer. Like that's, it's definitely worse. And so the older I get, the actually the harder grief is, you know, like I remember getting married and being like so angry that my dad wasn't going to be there and feeling like this was so unfair, but I hadn't really felt that anger before. up until that point.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Like, the older you get, the more important life moments, marriage, kids, you realize, like, how much you need a parent. And so as a kid, like, yeah, okay, he's not in my soccer game, but, like, you just are... You're more resilient as a kid. You really are. And so going through grief as an adult is 45 times harder.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And that was just with my dog, you know, whom I loved more than anything, but a dog is not a person. And it was... The most challenging thing, I actually don't even remember it. I blacked out that part of my life. It's coming up on a year actually like this week. It was the hardest thing I'd ever been through in my life.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Like seriously, I can't believe, I don't even think about that time because it was so, it was traumatizing.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I know. Well, they were so polar opposite. It's like, I think I actually would have preferred just to take Theo to the doctor and have him die. Like, the three weeks of diapers, of medication. Oh, my God. It was...
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
horrible and I felt like I was doing the wrong thing because you know it's cruel to keep a dog like that alive for your own they're so clearly in pain it's the right thing to do to put them down and if you're selfishly keeping them and I said I'm not going to do that and so when we woke up one morning it was so clear that he was suffering we were like listen this is cruel we're keeping him alive for us like we knew we had to do do that and with my dad like I had always felt like oh my god I never got to say goodbye it was you know hi one day bye the next and
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
But what Theo, the passing of Theo really taught me is like, honestly, it's better. It is. I think.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
You know, I just remember in middle school, there was a girl whose dad had died and she was in my grade and then her brother was in my sister's grade. And it was just kind of like the thing people said. Do you know what I mean? Like pointing and saying- No, not pointing, but like if you overheard like another parent talking, oh, did you hear? It was just kind of what, you know, they were led with.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And I didn't want that. I wanted to be a girl who was funny, a girl who was good at soccer, a girl who was beautiful. Like literally anything. I did not want to have that to be the thing. Like, oh, did you hear about that ashtray girl? Her father died. Like I didn't want that to be the first thing people said about me. So I remember making a conscious effort to just like bounce back.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Like that was just the emotion I remember feeling was like pure shame.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence

On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
i can't imagine how challenging it is to you know be going be giving birth having lost and then let me tell you it sucks like and i see ben who has both parents i'm so happy for him but i'm jealous yeah naturally yeah yeah i don't think that's bad no no of course not and it's definitely not bad and they're the best ben's parents like his dad is like always inviting me out on father's day like but you know a parent is a parent
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Yeah, it's just like hard to talk about. Nobody wants to be crying all the time. And I think that no matter what stage of your grief that you're at, like you can't talk about it without crying. That doesn't mean that you're not healed. It's just sad. Of course it is. And I don't want to be sad. Like that's my whole thing. Like I love being happy. I love making people laugh. I love laughing.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Like if I'm laughing, I'm so happy. So I hate to like sit around. And that's why like I know when I talk about this on the podcast, people don't like it. But I don't do therapy. Not for any reason. I'm not like against it. I know it's really powerful for a lot of people. But I've never really had a hard time communicating.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And I'm very blessed that like I have a lot of people in my life who I feel completely open to. and comfortable opening up to. And I know that's a privilege that not a lot of people have. But I also like, I don't know, I just don't want to spend my life being sad. Like the world is sad enough. Like I wake up every day with the goal of like making people laugh.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Like I like to be joyous and spread joy. And I don't know, I was sitting in the therapist's office for an hour a week, like crying, like, oh my God, like seriously, I can't, I can't.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Yes, I have a lot because, you know, people tell me that I'm kind of like a baby whisperer because I love to sing and I love to dance and I love to like, I'm obsessed with babies. And that's what babies love and that's what babies need. Like in their first couple of months, they're always looking for somebody to sing and dance to them.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And so that's the type of mom I want to be, like super joyous, super like always singing. I don't know if you follow Jessie J, the singer, on Instagram.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Okay, so she had a baby and she's always singing to her baby on Instagram. Now, I know she has one of the best voices in the world and I don't, but I'm going to be Jessie J. I'm going to be singing to my baby and my baby's going to think I have the most amazing voice because my baby's going to be my number one fan.

Oh, of course. No, I'm talking about year one.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I have thought about it. I definitely want to share my journey. I'm pretty against, you know, putting your kids on social media. I don't judge other people who do, but I'm not going to. And I feel like I see a trend of people sharing less and actually pulling their kids off social media because the dangers of it are like so obvious.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
If the internet wasn't such a disgusting place, I would love to, like have fun. But no, we can't have nice things. People are disgusting and absolutely not.

Yeah, and they just actually passed that law in California about like family channels and Demi Lovato was a big part of it of like just child actors, but also...
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
child like family channels like basically exploiting your kids on social media for money I they're they're all still actively happening but I feel like in 10-15 years like we are going to be hearing like the most craziest stories about kids who were forced to be on like YouTube family channels it's disgraceful um but it's also a slippery slope like you know like you start posting your kids and that's the most engaging content so you post more and more and more and then you rely on it to pay your bills so you're yelling at your kids to smile for the thumbnail and I never want I never want to be that

So he'll be hearing about this on the Jay Shetty podcast.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
No, actually. Certain things I feel really strongly about, and I say, Ben, this is what we're doing. Certain things he feels super strongly about, I'm like, okay. Sometimes we both don't know how to feel, and there are people in our life whose opinions we respect, and we'll call them and ask and get their opinions, and we'll come to a decision together.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
It just depends on what the topic is, you know?
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Yeah, and it's important to know, like as a half of a part, like a half of a marriage, like if there are certain things you don't have like strong feelings about, but your partner does, like, so let them have that one. And then when you have strong feelings about something and they don't, they will let you have it. Like that's the whole, you know,
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
schtick with compromise, but also knowing when you don't know, like some, all of this is new to me, motherhood, pregnancy. And so knowing that I have no experience and talking to people who do, and if I trust them and I think that like their values align with mine, taking their advice. But like, it's important to know like when you don't know enough.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence

This isn't a curated sentence, so I'm just going to speak. And I think it's something I've realized as I've gotten older, especially as a woman in the industry, you feel really competitive with other people. I feel now like I like to work to live and not live to work. I just would like to make a living. I don't need to be the biggest podcaster. I don't need to be the number one selling comedian.

On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I just would like to provide for my family. I think when you get really caught up in the hustle culture, it's good to have ambition, of course. But what used to be important to me is actually really not important to me anymore. Now, like just a job is a job. It's to provide. And that's it.

Oh my God. There is a, okay, sorry. It's going to be more than one sentence. There is a phrase that I hate. It's called like being realistic is the quickest path to mediocrity. Like I so disagree with that. I think being realistic is so important. Like so important.

I'm such an affectionate person. Like, I love all my nieces and nephews who are growing older now. They're, like, starting to hate it. But, like, I cover them in kisses. Like, I just am obsessed with kisses and hugs. And, like, this baby, like, is going to love me more than anyone. I'll probably end up liking Ben more. But this baby, like, is mine, you know? And I can kiss it as much as I want.

Well, actually at the time, I believe they were going by weight loss camp. Not that it mattered. Like colloquially, it's called a fat camp. And yeah, so I went to summer camp my whole life. And when I was like, I feel like maybe I was in like the sixth grade. I don't remember how old I was. My older sister was really struggling with her weight. I never struggled with my weight as a kid.

Actually, no, this is my answer. Not on purpose. Sorry. Just the toast.

Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And, you know, my parents tried a lot of different things. And one of the things that they tried was sending her to like a summer camp that was focused on physical fitness. I think what people think of as a fat camp, like a fat farm where like the kids are up every day pulling tires up hills. It wasn't like that at all.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
It was a very standard all American summer camp with fitness and diet just sort of at the forefront of meals and activities. And all my sisters went to support my older sister. And we ended up having like the most amazing time. We went back. I never went back to the old camp that I had originally went to. We went back every summer. It was the greatest experience of my life.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Some of my best friends I still talk to to this day from camp. And so I know how it like sounds and looks to other people. But for me, it was just such a regular camp experience. But I also wasn't on the program. So for any of the summers that I spent at a weight loss camp, I was actually never struggling with my weight.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
So I would wear this special bracelet that just let everyone at the facility know like I'm not on the program. And then it turns out, you know, the second I left camp, I actually started to struggle with my weight and I really could have used a weight loss camp.

Let me tell you, people who have never struggled with their weight, like are not people, not that there's anything wrong with them, but like they're not people I can relate to. I feel like struggling with your weight makes you such a real bitch. Like, can I curse on here? Like, I feel... people who have struggled with their weight, they know real struggle. They know being uncomfortable.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence

Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Well, it's like you can't win. I used to get like so much, you know, backlash and messages like that I'm setting a bad example, that I live an unhealthy lifestyle. So then I take control of it and like I start changing my life and now I'm, you know, running diabetics over with a bus. Like you really can't win. So you just have to do what makes you happy.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And going on that journey made me really happy. It was like the first time in my life where I ever felt in control of my weight. Like since I'm like – I started gaining weight in college. So since I'm 18, I – it was the craziest feeling. It was so foreign to me. And I think a lot of – especially girls who struggle with their weight may be able to relate to this. Like –
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I was always a confident person, even when, you know, I was struggling with my weight and I was always really happy in my own body. That was like something I really worked on. I think a lot of people let their weight control their lives, whether it comes to work or personal relationships. For me, I was never going to let it stand in my way, but that didn't mean that I didn't like that I liked it.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Like I loved myself and I loved my life, but deep inside, I always wanted to be skinny. So when you're an overweight girl, like you wake up every day and you think about, like you look, you pass a mirror, you pass a window, you're thinking probably a hundred times a day about like the inevitable day when maybe one day you will be skinny. So Ozempic gave me that.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Like, and to achieve a lifelong dream that you never think, and I know it sounds so dramatic, but to achieve a lifelong dream that you never think is going to come to fruition is the craziest feeling. And that's why, I really felt so compelled to share my journey because at the time when I shared, it was 2023, I think maybe around the end of the year. No, it was like the summer.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
There was so much negative stuff out there about Ozempic, like the Daily Mail. Every time somebody ended up in the ER with a headache, it was Ozempic's fault. And I just felt like everybody was being made fun of for being on Ozempic and no one was really talking about it. how life-changing it is.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And especially as a girl who always wanted to be a mom, I was like, I can't ever get pregnant at this weight. I have to lose the weight before I can gain the weight. So it just gave me opportunities. It gave me a whole new life. And I felt so compelled to share because it bothered me how negative everything was about this journey. We were all supposed to feel shame.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
The amount of negative media representation, negative mentions of Ozempic was supposed to, I think, shame people into not doing it. And I was like, I don't feel like... And I think that's why Oprah did her special too. Her special was really powerful because she's somebody who's benefited enormously from it. And you don't hear those stories enough. And it makes me so sad.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
So ultimately, it was the best decision I ever made. Going on it and also sharing the journey. But at the time... I just wish people had given me like a little bit more space to process it, you know?
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Yeah, of course. So when it was first brought up to me by my plastic surgeon, I was like super intrigued. Then I spoke to like my primary care physician about it and both of them were really like down and excited and they wanted me to do it. So I felt really good like knowing that my doctors supported it. And that's why like I didn't share... from day one, because one, what if it didn't go well?
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Two, it doesn't work for some people. So I make this whole big thing, I'm going on this, and then I don't even lose the weight. Like there were so many factors at play. So I couldn't share from day one. And then when I started to drop significant weight, I was just then feeling embarrassed. that's why I didn't share.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I was like, wow, I, my life got to a place where it was, where I'm so out of control. I need medication to get me to stop eating. Like, and that's what I loved about Oprah special was she really dived into like the illness, the disease of obesity and how it's like telling someone to stop eating is like telling a depressed person to just be happy. Like it's really not in our chemical compound. So,
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I felt like the whole journey I was learning about myself. I was learning about the disease. I was learning about the medication. And yeah, of course, I was worried about side effects. But after a couple of weeks when I had minimal nausea and it went away pretty fast, I felt like this was the right drug for me.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
Oh, well, I had lost the weight and I feel like I was on it for a year. And the first six months, I just kind of let the drug like do its thing. I didn't change my life at all. I was like still eating like crap. But that's how the drug works. You eat like crap, but you eat half. So I was losing weight.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And then halfway through, I was like, okay, now that I've kind of gotten my life a little bit under control, let me actually try and change my life. So I... joined the gym. I got a trainer. I started working out. I started eating way healthier. So I did the journey like in two parts. One where I just kind of let the medication run me.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
And then where I used the medication as like a tool to change my life. And I really wanted to see if I could do it without. And I also knew that I had wanted to get pregnant sometime soon. And you have to be off the medication for a So I got off of it in December of 2023.
On Purpose with Jay Shetty
Claudia Oshry: How to Stop Letting Your Body Image Hold You Back & Build Lasting Confidence
I knew in the next year I'd wanted to get pregnant and I kind of wanted to put as much time between being off the drug and starting my journey. And I wanted to see like if I could keep up with my working out and my eating well regimen without the drug. And I was able to, and that's like one of the things I'm most proud of.

That was their first podcast, right? We knew Alex was going to be launching a network, and she was announced with one other girl. It was huge, Alex Earle, at the time. She still is. And so it really kind of, I feel like they built the rest of the network on the initial talent of Madeline and Alex, yes.

And when we got in the studio. No, never. When we got in the studio, we decided to change Jackson Turdy to Jackson Claude. It's just more timeless. It's more timeless. Like it is my government name.

The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
So I remember what I was going to say at the beginning of the show, because I saw this all over social media and I was reading comment sections and like literally I could not roll my eyes hard enough at people being like, these are two separate people, could have fooled me. Like, shut up. I just, I want to say, anybody who's saying that, like, I think you're dumb and annoying, okay?
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Um, but I feel like this article confirms any sort of suspicions anybody had about these two having beef, not because the shows are no longer together. And we'll talk about why that might be, but because of the use of the word dropped, right? Right.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
For a network that's very new, unwell, like trying to stand out, for you to drop, like intentionally separate from your biggest talent, your biggest show, the most famous, recognizable person on your network, that doesn't make sense, right? Only if there's a reason, like a fight, a drama, a bad blood, would you drop someone, right?
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
yeah so for me I was like oh any suspicion I had because there have been theories online being like listen this was just like not the right place for Alex Earl and you know Alex Cooper understands that like there's not beef they're just two successful women like doing their best and I feel like with this headline it pretty no it's not that like there's drama yeah this headline is contentious if they were just going their separate ways they might have been they could have even done it quietly where she's removed from unwell and they're not selling her ads and
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Well, so yes, now we can talk about the success of the show, but it is relative, right? Because I think if you look at her YouTube numbers, they're pretty strong. I don't think a lot of people listen to the audio only version, but I think that's not a knock at Alex Earl. It's the generation, right? Like young people are really not listening to podcasts.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
They love like to stream stuff and watch stuff on YouTube. So that's why her YouTube is so successful. And so I feel like, and I remember saying this, that I hate it. You know, you hate to be like a hater.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
But I remember when Alex Earl signed with Unwell, I remember, I think I said this on the toast, but I know like my personal feelings were like, I feel like this is the wrong move, not because of Unwell, but because Alex Earl shouldn't be doing a podcast, right? Like she's of a generation, she's the face of Gen Z and Gen Z is not huge into podcasting. It's definitely like an older medium.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
I feel like millennials really are the biggest. But also because when you look at the success of it,
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
YouTube right that's where everyone's watching it I don't see the show on the charts really it launched and it was like you know number one or number two in comedy but then it sort of disappeared because everybody's watching on YouTube so that what does that tell us right people want to watch Alex Earl whereas like podcasting is a listening medium and what I see because I follow her on all social media I happen to think she's like so fabulous and I see her she goes to the Super Bowl she goes to F1 she goes to Kim Film Festival she goes everywhere and she is checking four huge suitcases of
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
of podcast equipment. She's like vlogging, like this is my podcast. She sets up a little studio in every hotel room she does to record a podcast episode just so people watch it, not so they listen to it. So I'm like, you are working so hard for what? Like start a YouTube channel and vlog. You bring one camera.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
And I wanted the song to be for everyone, like new listeners, potential new listeners. And, you know, as much as I think Turney is here to stay, nicknames also do evolve. So to record it and make it like, you know, in the record books. It's Jackson Turtle.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Like you could literally not check four suitcases if you just, like, I feel like the experiment, of her being on Unwell, but just like having a podcast really probably taught her that she should be a vlogger. She is on TikTok, but I mean, like if she wants to do long form content, she should be a YouTube blogger more than she should be a podcaster.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
So I think that she should have left Unwell because she should have left the podcasting space.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
But I do think it's deeper than that. Like, I don't think that's why she left. Maybe she I don't know if she enjoyed being a podcaster.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
she parted ways with her gave her the show because previously that's what she would have wanted but also you have to think about like how unwell needs to look at this like everyone's watching right seeing how these two go their separate ways but unwell is currently in the process of their business where they're growing they're signing talent they're signing pre-existing shows they just got that girl avery's podcast they're creating new shows with new talent like grace and so you want to be perceived as a network that like isn't good to work with right
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
We're trying to get everyone to sign with us. So if you're over here stealing Alex Earle's IP, I don't know if that makes you look good to potential podcasters who might sign with you.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
And so... I mean, there's just so many layers to this. So now like talking about the actual drama between these two, there's a lot of rumors. What I have heard is that there is like definitely bad blood between them and it has been going on for a really long time.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
And I think that it, when they launched like, you know, the Call Her Daddy episode of Alex Earle and Alex Earle's new show, it was like this big media thing. It was like good for a couple of months and it really hasn't been good since then. And a lot of it had to do with the episode of Call Her Daddy that Alex Earle was on.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
And Alex Earl not being happy with some of the questions she was asked and actually had it having requested edits be made of things she didn't want to talk about. And those edits not being honored.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
And then her dad coming on to manage her and her sister bringing like another level of protection, because I do think a lot of the stuff that Alex, what I had heard, this is all alleged and like potentially untrue. What I had heard was that a lot of the stuff that Alex Earl wanted removed from that initial episode of call her daddy had to do with her family. You know, she has a lot of family drama.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Her dad, had a very famous affair with Ashley Dupree, who was Eliot Spitzer, the governor of New York. She was like this madam. And she had this like black book of clients. And it was like this crazy thing. And the biggest one was the mayor of New York, governor, excuse me, right? Eliot Spitzer.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
But it turns out one of the other men in the black book of like the wealthy men of the tri-state area was Alex Earle's dad. They actually ended up getting married. So that's Alex Earle's stepmom by now. Yeah, she has a very interesting family story. But it's like not her story to tell. It's a little traumatic.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
And so I think that Alex and the family were very unhappy with how the Call Her Daddy episode came out. And they had requested some things be taken out. And that wasn't honored. In addition to some of the questions about sex that Alex Ehrlich wasn't comfortable answering. But those were also included against her will. So what I have heard was that it's kind of been bad from the beginning.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
And then there's like a lot of inter-business drama, like behind the scenes, because these two girls for a while shared a publicist. Now the publicist no longer works with Alex Cooper.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Yeah. Yeah. And so that's definitely suspicious. Like now you're only working with Alex Earl. It begs the question. That she took a side because there was a side to take because there was drama?
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Another reason that like, I know that there's something like bad between them is because you were just saying August, 2023 is when they signed the unwell Alex Earl deal. It is what month is it? February. So that means the contract was probably up August, 2025 was probably a two year deal.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
It's been a year and a half. So that means that like, they really couldn't even work together for the next four or five months just to save face and like end this peacefully, like finish out the terms of your contract. The fact that like they made it a year and a half out of two years, I had heard that the contract was up in the summer. And I think also it makes sense.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
You would sign like a two year, that's how podcast contracts work. I don't know a podcast contract that's really less than a year. And it's usually like one year, two year, three year deals. So you couldn't even like finish out the last couple of months. It's so bad. There's something going on.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
It's your favorite shoe. Oh, when I sing it to myself, and I was singing it all day yesterday, I get really crazy by the end. We'll start your day off swirly. It's the toast. And then also I've added a couple of riffs. Tell me if you guys have also been doing this. I feel like it's the natural progression of the song. We'll start your day off swirly, twirly, girly, shirly, nurly, pearly, nurly.

Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
It's similar to like TNN dropping Josh Peck. Like your biggest, most recognizable star who's actually doing a good job. Why? Yeah. Unless we have beef with Josh Peck.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
And it's interesting to note that when TikTok was dying, the days leading up to the TikTok ban, Alex Earl launched a YouTube channel. So a separate channel. She has the Hot Mess channel, which has, I think, like... a pretty decent following. It's really hard to grow a YouTube channel no matter how big your other platforms are, you know?
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
So in its second season, which just started a couple of months ago, the cover art changed to both girls. But Alex still does some episodes by herself, like with Braxton and like her college friends. So I had thought that it was being rebranded to like the Earl Girls show, which I think it totally should have been. But now it seems like six days ago.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
So 265,000 subscribers on the hot mess YouTube channel, which is really good.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
But Jackie, when you think about it, like her episodes, they do really well, right? Like between 100 and 200,000 views on YouTube per video. That's really good. But if you watch like her vlogs on TikTok, like this girl's used to getting like 5 million views every video.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Of course not. But all I'm saying is like how much more work is this podcast episode for 200,000 views as opposed to a vlog on your TikTok that you could also do long form on your YouTube that's cheaper to produce and is going to yield better results.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
In the podcasting world. All's that to say that I think the lesson here, and I have felt this way from the beginning, is Alex Earl never should have, like her next big thing in her career should have not been a podcast. It makes no sense. It's definitely an older thing. It's not very Gen Z. It's
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
For somebody who got so popular because everybody's obsessed with watching her, like her looks, her fashion, her makeup, her glam, her friends, her parties. Like you really that doesn't translate on a podcast. Podcast is really conversational. And so it was just the wrong thing for her to do. Not that it was wrong to go to Unwell.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
There is a conversation to be had about like forking over a percentage of your ad sales to a network like Unwell. Whereas you could go to any other network and you have a better rev share, but like you give up more money of your ad revenue to be supported by Unwell because you like there's so many benefits to that.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
So you could have the conversation about whether she should have gone to Unwell or not. But I think the conversation is like, I don't think she should have had a podcast ever.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
If I were her, I would not. It is too much work for too little reward. Because look, she has now her own personal YouTube channel that she has promoted. I saw it one time, 120,000 subscribers. So that's half the podcast channel does, but she literally launched it a month ago and has promoted it once. And she's done three videos.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Like if she just got into the groove of posting about her YouTube channel once a week, doing a vlog, like for life, the parties, Miami, the events, Braxton, Like she would be a huge YouTuber, like the biggest vlogger.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
And it's just, it's a, it's a lower lift, especially given how much she travels, like to travel with four suitcases of equipment, like, all right, to do it one time for like the Super Bowl. Sure. Every time she goes somewhere, she went to Mykonos on this tiny little plane. I kept thinking, where's her podcast equipment? Like it's too much work for a gal on the go.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
It's the toast. I could go on literally the whole alphabet.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
What's in my opinion, the cameras, like cameras, tripods, lights, micro, no, she has like a full blown setup.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Right, but you could also make a really premium YouTube video with like a Canon G7X, which is the size of a coffee and like traveling Bluetooth microphones. Like seriously something you could keep in a laptop case. You can make really premium content. Yeah. Just saying. Yes. And I think that's more so what people want to see from her and less like conversations.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Although there have been episodes of her podcast that people really loved. The one with her dad, people really liked. Obviously, the ones with Braxton, people really like. So that just like points to people being interested in you. You know, podcasts are conversational. You interview people like you talk about random things. They just like her.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
They want to see her, her life, like kind of reality show vibes.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Oh. Where was that idea when we were in the studio?
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
It's the toast. They sound amazing. Good morning, millennials, and welcome back to the toast, day two of having a gargi-pargi Grammy award-winning intro theme song. Hey, Jax, how you doing?
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Yeah, but the thing is, is like becoming a reality star these days does not yield even 5% as much money as being one of the world's biggest TikTokers. And it takes up all your time. Like Alex Earl is making so much money on the things that really take her the least amount of time, which is like short form content on YouTube. I mean, excuse me, on TikTok.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
So for her to then like, you know, do an hour long weekly podcast, like these things, I think reality TV show would be great for her fame wise. It would take up a lot of her time and you don't get paid like that much compared to the money she's making from like brand deal. She's launching a liquor company now.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
like average reality TV amounts. Like that, I think they did that for, to align themselves with Hulu. I think it was a part of a big partnership because they were both on Dancing with the Stars when it streamed on Hulu. And I also think that was like a fame thing because they were very internet.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
And I think that really gave them like a global, like people who, like your grandparents might've heard of it because they saw it on Hulu.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
No. Because the interesting thing about Alex Earl is that she has had incredible success on social media without really doing like drama content. I think a lot of people like thrive off of views from like scandal and drama and friend breakups. Even that thing with Zandra, she like barely spoke about, she referenced it once in a podcast episode. She never even said Zandra.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
It could have been anyone. Like she actually does not do drama. Like she likes to just like live her life and post about it. So it's actually really refreshing. And so I think someone else would like see this as an opportunity to like get views and clicks. I don't think she sees that way. Like she's had success without that. She doesn't need it.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
That's what I think. But again, I'm just talking like out of my ass.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
But if another Alex Earl could be mad, the dropped, the dropped was a knife. Yeah.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
No, the clink is actually inspired. And I just wanted to know, like, where that... You're so the queen of coming in with, like, the best idea at the worst time. I know. You're still mad about bad blood for the era. I am. I'm still mad about when you gave me an idea for the era store outfits by a group of girls that, like, the day before I left for Nashville. So... It's kind of becoming your thing.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
So people immediately like forgot all the history here and were like, Dave is signing Alex Earl. No, he's not. He actually commented. I didn't even call her. It was a joke because when Brianna and Grace broke up and Grace left Barstool, like five minutes later, Alex Cooper posted a video of a screenshot of her phone call with Grace being like, I'm on it. So he was just copying.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
He said, but I didn't talk to her. And Alex Earl would never go to Barstool. It's a unilateral move.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
So that's what I want to talk about because that's sort of one of the unanswered questions from all this. I feel like after the Grace thing, we never got confirmation because sometimes things have happened between Alex Cooper and Dave. And we're like, are these two still friends? And they're always like, yeah, we see each other as business people. We're good.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
But after the Grace thing, I feel like there's actually beef.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Yeah. And they usually like they usually let us know like we're good. But I feel like they're not.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Right. Right. I do think, though, Unwell needs to replace Alex's star. They have this big new deal with SiriusXM, and I think a part of that deal is hitting these download benchmarks every month that Alex Earl was probably helping with. So they do need another big name there.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Yeah, between like scooping up shows that are already successful and that already exist and then like creating new shows with new talent, which is what they did with Alex Earl. So I'll be very interested to watch this saga. It's fascinating.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Oh, yes. Do you know about it? The Jesus drama.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
So I was just talking about one of the podcasts they acquired was this girl, Avery, who's like a big TikToker. She started a podcast and then Unwell acquired it. And so I guess to promote her new career on Unwell, she went on another Unwell podcast, Harry Jowsey, our favorite. Harry Jowsey, our fave. And they had a convo that people were really unhappy with. First of all, people were just like,
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Avery's thing is that she's like a mom of three. She's married. She just like, she has kind of an ordinary life, but she's made it, you know, extraordinary. And it's like, it's fun. I like it.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
comedic real moms being real you know yeah and funny and so she's having this conversation with harry jowsey and the pushback was twofold the first was that like just the episode was inappropriate like she was just like flirting with harry and she's married being like harry would you fuck me like i uh like don't worry i had three c-sections my pussy's pristine and people really didn't like that like because what are you implying like women who go vaginally don't have pristine pussies like it was it was not good she like pissed off moms which yeah
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
It's not a group you want to piss off. And then she also pissed off the Christian community because she was saying, and I got her point at first. She was making a point of being like, the people who leave the nastiest comments on my social media always have like a Bible verse in there.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
No, and it wasn't what people were offended by. She was basically saying like the hypocrisy of being a troll with a Bible verse in your in your bio isn't lost on me. But then she took it a little far being like, and please, like if Jesus saw you, like he would bend you over and fuck you raw without a condom or something. And it was like, holy shit. No, it like didn't stop here.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Okay. Yeah. But then I'm saying it. I know. And I just said it and like, don't clip that. I don't believe that. I love my Christian community.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
With no lube, right? That's what they say. And what is poop pirate? Do I even want to know?
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
That's just how we do. What song is that? Because when the sun set, baby, on the avenue. What song is that?
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Actually, I don't even have a thought. I don't know what that is. Urban dictionary?
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Okay, it's literally not coming up on urban dictionary.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Okay, we found it. No, it says a poop pirate is a person who lurks outside restrooms and waits for you to leave so they can rush in and sniff the toilet seat.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
And then she released a video because like it was becoming too big to ignore. And she was like, the whole podcast was scripted. She was actually like a really bad, she didn't clear anything up for me. Got it.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
And to be honest, like that's the sign of a healthy business in this industry. Like if you're not being talked about positively or negatively, like you're nobody. So it's like a tough part of the business, but it is like a sign of life.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
stop they're such like girls i love the way they talk about this also i was on i'm on like the really like truly ill side of social media where people were freaking out about this episode because he wasn't in his studio travis and like people have been speculating for a couple of weeks said him and taylor are on vacation because they haven't been spotted and it's like him recording a podcast it was just like a couch it was like totally a hotel villa or something kind of confirms like they're on vacation like okay so they're on vacation like his work just ended her work just ended
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
it's called like when your vacation dates align like it wasn't but like everybody's like they're on vacation it's president's week people have off So I guess this confirmed that for them.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Hey. Hey. Hey. So yesterday was just like a great day for women in music.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
And I want to say, I know he's one of the greats, but... Michael Jordan like really ruined this excuse for other people because he like famously won the NBA championships with like the flu. And he was like, he had like 105 fever. He's like vomiting and shitting on the sidelines. And he played like the greatest game of his life. And it's like one of these famous sports hero stories.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
And like, so if Michael Jordan can do it, why can't Travis? You know, even though being sick is like such a valid excuse, normalize like not being able to do your best.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Oh, I love this theory. I love this theory. He totally, the Super Bowl was a super spreader event. Yeah.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
The sun is so good for his, for those types of symptoms. Correct.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
And also vitamin T. Vitamin Lurd. Vitamin Lurd, which is so good for the sinuses.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
You love to see like two grown men who were like from the sports world rub some dirt in it. Talking about like music and emotions. It's beautiful.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
And I just want to say, like, Travis, you could listen to music that's not Taylor's. I feel like he does listen to Travis Taylor's music, but he, like, says, like, oh, yeah, I only listen to Taylor. But, like, what else do you listen to? It's okay to, like, listen to a bunch of different things, not only your girlfriends.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Well, you're speaking from your own point of privilege. Yes.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Oh, I think he wasn't speaking in a physical sense. I think it was speaking in a spiritual sense. But yes, if I'm looking for something and the light is on, it's obviously way more helpful.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Yeah, no, Travis is like reading off a quote card from like brainyquotes.com.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
He played real lame. Oh, that's good. One of my favorite fun facts is that the name Claudia is actually a Latin translation of the word lame. Which feels right.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Oh, you don't? No, I'm Googling it. I've always known that to be true. And actually one of Ben's parents' friends just gave me a gift, like the book of a thousand names. It was really sweet. And of course, you know, the first thing you do is like look up your own name and the definition is lame.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
We need it on Spotify so that I can put it on repeat one. Okay. If there was an explicit version, though, how would it go? I think it would go like this. Good morning, bitches. It's the fucking toast. It's Jackson, Claude, and we're your host. It's your favorite fucking show. The best five fucking things you need to fucking know. We'll start your fucking day off swirly. It's the fucking toast.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
I told you. And I do feel like lame and enclosure. Like that's me. Like I'm always in some sort of enclosure, whether it's like my bed.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
I sent Claudia a funny comment, which is apparently every day she says what's... And some days we move at such crazy pace, I can't believe we're only on the third story and we're already at an hour. Like... Do you know what I mean? Are we at an hour? Yeah, and that's why I'm like, you're dilly-dallying so hard.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
That's so wrong. I need to talk to our parents. Like, that is so wrong. Supplanter. Lame and holder of the universe. What was it? It's Jackson Holder. Like it's so wrong.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Well, that would be the second day in a row that we only did four stories. And I feel like the show did not suffer.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Well, because you said it first. Oh, but then... I assumed that you knew something I didn't know.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Oh, but I wouldn't dream of it. I wouldn't dream of ever correcting you.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Yeah, no, because they've been together at most award shows. And like last week, I actually was just looking at pictures. Timothy hosted a Cartier event. It was like a poker party. And Kylie, like I just saw, they had a bunch of like film photos developed. And Kylie's like there at Chateau Marmont, like playing poker with Cartier. Okay.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
So yes, they're very much supportive of one another, especially when it comes to award seasons. And Kylie's definitely going through it right now. And her paying for the funeral costs is like... I don't know why people act surprised. She's actually very generous. And this is like no skin off her back. I'm sure she's doing more than that, like setting his family up with stuff. So she's a queen.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
This is such a sad story. And so many more tributes have been rolling in. I actually was just reading a really beautiful one this morning from Shay Mitchell, who has worked with him for many years. And it seemed like he was really...
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
And I did see the GoFundMe and like I wanted to see like what celebrities had donated because you can like look by. Like the most you could sort the donator like the amount the donations by amounts and so many celebrities like donating between like one and five thousand dollars. A bunch of anonymous people in there with like 10K.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
So I don't know who that was, but it seems like this was like a person who who a lot of people worked with, but also really loved.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Oh, two Hollywood big tycoons like ourselves talking about our fellow Hollywood big tycoons.

Today's episode is also brought to you by Quince. Who doesn't love the good things in life? Even though we enjoy a little bit of luxury, that doesn't mean you always want to spend it, to be honest. Until you're going to discover Quince, and it truly changes everything. And Quince has become our go-to for luxury essentials at affordable prices.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
So they offer a range of high-quality items at prices within reach. So they have Mongolian cashmere sweaters starting at just $50, washable silk tops and dresses, organic cotton sweaters, 14-carat gold jewelry. And so I know you're going to say, like, well, I can't buy all of these things. But the best part is that Quince's items are priced 50% to 80% less than similar brands.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025

I had no idea that like jail time was even on the table for Karen Huger. And I don't know if I necessarily knew that you could go to jail for a DUI. Every time I think of like celebrities with DUIs, like it's like slap on the wrist community service paying a fine. Justin Timberlake.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
And also every state has different laws. But like, I just didn't know that this was even an option.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Right where you left me. So I need to just add that. I stayed there, just collected round my pinned up hair. What else did they say? There was like one other song that was like so obvious. Yeah. Was it also tailored?
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Yeah, that's what it sounds like. But I'm sure I don't know what the hell that means. Yeah. I'm shocked. I'm also so conflicted. You know how I feel about DUIs. Punish them to the highest extent of the law. It's seriously the dumbest, most dangerous, selfish, disgusting thing you could do. But Karen Huger is my fucking queen. And I know she's better than this. And I know she has a good heart.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
But she did that shit. So I don't know. I'm really confused.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
So this is the third housewife to go to prison. Teresa, Jen Shah. Have there been any others? Like Luann's been arrested, but she didn't go to jail. And Luann was just being drunk and disorderly. Like she was drunk in a hotel and then like slapped a cop, which is terrible, but different than a DUI. So I understand why the, it's just also crazy because like,
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
I feel like they're, I just, I almost wish I didn't get this news breaking because I need time to digest it. Like I'm feeling, you know, this is so personal to me. DUIs, but also Karen Huger. It's not very grand dame of her.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
But I guess it not being your first like makes a huge difference.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Like it's she's got a rap sheet.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
I don't know how to transition. Like, I'm serious. I can't get over this.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
I also can't see her in jail. I can't picture it. Teresa, I could picture. Jen Shah, I could picture. Like, these are tough broads. No, Karen is so tough.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Okay, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. I just need to like quickly shift my mindset. Caviar Caspia.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Yeah, the Fourth of July party like had so much potential to be a fun afternoon because it just looked pargy. Like she made it really nice and it was destroyed.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Look at that hot dog cart. The hot dog. When it comes to Dorit and Sutton, I'm like so fiercely team Dorit. With the events at the July 4th thing, like Dorit wasn't helping herself. Like for the first time, I didn't find her like 100% like defensible. Like she was being like a shitster, like starting stuff. But she hates Sutton. So like I get that. When you hate someone, like you start stuff.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Yep. But the thing is, I now no longer care about like who was right, who was wrong about like the July 4th stuff because the Caviar-Caspia wallet conversation was so crazy. And somebody I saw on Twitter pulled a tweet. I had forgotten about this moment where at a reunion, this came up just like about her being very like hoity-toity about money. And somebody asked Crystal, like, do you think –
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Sutton Strack like wields her money as a weapon and like uses it to make herself feel secure and Crystal was like no but that's because I have more money than her when she when she was asking if it was directly about her and so it's true where she sees like a lack of money because Dorit's money is very curious right um she sees that as a weakness and so I mean I understand that she's proud of how far she's come in this life but like it's really crazy
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Well, people have wanted Dorit's financial like situation to be brought up. For a couple of years, because there have been big stories that have largely been ignored, like his gambling debts, the tax stuff, the lawyer thing. Yeah, but you know what?
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
You should wear this hat to the party tonight. Oh, Dancing Through Life, original. Oh, the Max and Ruby theme song. Of course. You should wear this hat to the party tonight. Oh, and the AI song. Oh, I'm so glad I'm Travi. I'm so glad my Travi made it to the big game.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Yeah no and this is like one thing the women and they all like even though they all want everybody's drama to be brought to the forefront they never talk about Dorit's money stuff like money is something it's like in Beverly Hills with this particular group of women they don't talk about it like it's day class A it's somewhere they don't go so it really took it immediately separated everyone from Dorit everybody took a step back.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
She talks like a poor person, you know? Like, she's like, when you go to Caviar Casper in Paris, you're usually hoping somebody else picks up the bill. And she is so funny. She's like, and I would eat all the caviar, except it's too expensive. Like, she was acting poor.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
No, it's so true. But she's sort of opened the door now to talk about, oh, we're going low? Okay, let's talk about the fact that you literally have not earned a single dollar that you have. You were born to it and you married it. Like, okay, so why does that make you better than me?
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
What are you thinking of? I feel like you're thinking of something specific.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
I don't know what you're referring to, like this big obvious thing.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Yeah, and NeNe was being pushed into a corner. Like, they were doubting her success. She said, I cash Trump checks. I am rich, bitch. First of all, don't even compare yourself to the great NeNe Leakes. Like, you could never.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
So today's show is like so popping off for so many reasons. One, I'm feeling really good about the state of my bowels. I don't want to jinx it, but like I hated having to run off yesterday's episode. I hate when my body and my brain aren't in sync. Like it's not the time for a poo. It's Dear Toasters. Sorry to the DTQ, the Dear Toasters community that we didn't get that extra Dear Toasters.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Right, right. She was just defending herself. Yeah.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
And I said, did you just make that up or did somebody say that? You're like, no, Sutton said it in her confessional. I was like, oh, I totally missed that.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
And there's not. No, I know. There's not. But now we can say whatever we want.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
By the way, Faye Resnick was looking very pargy.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
And Kathy's now made an appearance in two episodes back to back after being gone for most of the season and she's giving us nothing.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
I want to say something. I want to say something about Bose, who I have loved, and I still do. But, like, from the moment I met her, I haven't had a negative thing to say about her. And now, after a couple of weeks, I have a negative thing to say. Being a first-season housewife and coming on with a story, like, I want to get pregnant, even though, like, we know you're not.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Like, it's just a storyline. It's really unacceptable behavior. Like, it's unacceptable behavior. It's such a trope, you know? Like, remember when that one season Melissa Gorga was like, I'm going to get pregnant. And we're like, no, you're not. Like, it's really, it's bottom of the barrel. When you're not going to do it, it's bottom of the barrel. I can't stand it.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
And also thank you for reminding me. The most dreadful 10 minutes of my life was that scene with Kyle and her life coach. Like how that passed. Got a snack. Went to the bathroom.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
I am filing a class action lawsuit to Bravo. If you'd like to join, send me a message. It was positively dreadful. Although she did say one thing. I fed my starter. Right. She did say one thing that made me like feel for her.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
They got fed. But I owe you one. I owe you one. I own that. So that's exciting. Two, it's Wednesday, which just means it's hump day. Vibes are aplenty. And we have the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills recap, which we did miss last week because of Love is Blind.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Cause I feel like when we talk about divorce, we always talk about how like, you know, the woman gets the house and she should, but Kyle was like, I almost wish I didn't because he gets to go have this fun new life in a new apartment. And I'm left here in this house that everybody used to be at.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
And because it's also timing up with like all of her kids being out of the house, she's like so aware of everything she's lost while all he sees is this new, exciting life. I was like, that actually does suck. Even though you would think like you should get the house. The house kind of was like,
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
I mean, I'm sorry. The idea that her and this man would have a baby together and they're like doing ultrasounds in her living room when they haven't even exchanged I love you's. Please stop wasting my time.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Get an ultrasound in your living room. And I just want to say, I love her. And I haven't said a bad word about her. And I won't again because the way she, like, blindly stands up for Dorit. Like, that's the kind of support Dorit needs right now. She is etched in my book.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Then why not Dorit and Bose? Right. They just don't like it. Yeah, they don't because Bose is a formidable opponent.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Yeah. Tomorrow we have Summer House. And I've been seeing whispers online that some of the Spritz drama starts tonight. If that's true, I can't wait.

I also watched the last two Rehob. So we have Beverly Hills recap and then we have major news in the podcasting space and I feel like we were just talking about this on the toast and I'm so glad we did because now our listeners have like a lot of context and we kind of clued them into like an underground story before it launched.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Somebody call 911, short of fire burning on the dance floor. So the big Alex Earl podcast drama is going to be a story today. And I just want to let you guys know, like for my own curiosity, because this is news that like I find so interesting, but also I know that like people want to know, I was like making calls yesterday, like really trying to find out what happened.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
industry people like I was really trying to get the tea and let me say like there's limited tea there so a lot of the stuff that you're seeing on social media like from just random people don't believe because I feel like I have good insight and I'll tell you everything I found out but like these are two people who are extraordinarily private yes but also at this point I can't remember what I know from like social media from like you know public channels and what I know from private channels which is good for everyone because I'm
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Everybody feels the way about it that we do. No, let me tell you how relieved I was. I don't know why, but I was just like, we're going to launch a song and everybody's going to hate it. I feel like we've kind of been in a hater era recently with the frames and people like, I just feel like every time we do something, they're like, I can feel like it was not, should have been this way.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
But I would be cautious about it because I saw so much stuff on TikTok.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Is that our lead story? Did anything else happen yesterday?
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Oh, and so we also need to talk about how we're going to talk about these two without getting confused. And I think we just go Earl Cooper. Like we have to use last names. Can I go Licks Lex? Like, no, because we actually need to be like, like clear.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Alex. No, we get it. Like, but it's a little too.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
And hold on. I just have to send an important text message. I'm on a fact finding mission about this particular story.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
I can't say that either. But wait, I had one more thing I wanted to say. I am in the chat. Lex licks, Lex licks. And the other thing I wanted to say, I can't remember. It'll come back to me. My brain has been really bad recently. It's one of my least favorite things about pregnancy. Not that I have any favorites. Not that I have any favorites.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Yeah, I actually do remember that. I'm not that dumb.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Yeah, I know. I remember. And then I also, I had the most amazing night last night. One, because I saw Shannon Ford's comedy show and it was fabulous. But two, the place where she held her comedy show, like served food, and I got a cookie in a skillet. Yummo. Yeah. And it was so... And the thing is, I just looked at the menu and I saw like cookie skillet. I didn't see what type of ice cream.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
I just said, like, yeah, I'll have that. And it was dark in there because it was a comedy club.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
I know. And now I hate it because I can't even tell you.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
what I ate I know it was a chocolate chip cookie you can't replicate it at home but there was something different in the ice cream I feel like it was cookies and cream ice cream with like bits of oreo it was at city winery let's look up the city winery menu you guys and let me tell you not to sound like so fat it was so small like it was so small and Margo and Ben like kept taking bites and I'm like can you scram the fuck out of here it was so good a cookie I've never actually had a bad cookie in a skillet obviously some are better than others but
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
And I was like, I can't wait for them to say they didn't like the one we chose or that the production was bad. And I didn't even see one negative comment. I cannot believe how much people loved it so much.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
BJ's Brewhouse has an amazing cookie in a skillet. I feel like it's such a classic chain restaurant dessert menu item.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Yeah. Do you own any of the skillets that like you bake a cookie in?
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
It would be the size of, I'm not going to put it in my big Dutch oven. No, they do make ones in restaurants that are like obviously meant to share. So it's like the size of a small pie.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
I think you need to get on that for the next time I visit.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
And it's a small dessert menu. And the others looked so good, too. But I saw skillet.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
I didn't know they had multiple menus. Okay, I go.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
There wasn't. Oh my God. No way. But there wasn't ganache. That's not what I ate. There was like Oreo in it. Port ganache. Chunks of.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Maybe there was pork ganache, but there was other stuff in there too.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
You guys, it was so good. Like... It made my whole night. It was such a fabulous night. So good to see Shannon, like not her being, and by the way, it was like the show started at 7.50. So eight o'clock, like I'm deteriorating in the chair, like breaking down. Ben is rubbing my back. I had to order a cookie skillet and a Diet Coke. Like I'm breaking down.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Shannon's over here, like still in the throes of, she's out of her first trimester, but she's like still like nauseous and really at the thick of it. Doing a show in heels and a Miu Miu t-shirt. Like I actually wanted to kill her. I'm like up in the balcony, almost, I have to call an ambulance. Like I seriously, Taylor Stricker was like, Are you okay? And I was like, no. She's like, what's wrong?
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
I'm like, I can't even explain it. Like, I'm just not okay. It was just late for me. And Shannon's up there like looking like a model. You would never know she's pregnant. Leather pants, stilettos, a hair and a slick back pony, really setting an unrealistic standard for women.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
No, I actually, like, I don't aspire to that. Like, I'm so tired. I could, like, even my aspirations are exhausted, you know? Yeah, yeah. So she was great. She's going on like a 25 city tour and it's presented by Spritz. So there was Spritz everywhere. It's a real TNN synergized event. And I highly recommend attending. It was also just like fabulous swirlies around, you know?
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
And I'm just like so excited for today's show. I can't explain it. Like, you know, when you're feeling, you know, when you're feeling like,

Like he's driving with like blood going into his eyeball, but he just wants you to see. Yeah. How hard I played. Now, was it like a contentious? Was it an accident? He started a fight?
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Well, I'm so glad that people loved the song as much. Of course it was a she. You're telling me.
The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Well, we're wishing him a speedy recovery. Like truly.

The Toast
Lex vs. Lix: Wednesday, February 26th, 2025
Who am I thinking of? Charlie Puth has that. Miles Teller? Yeah. Because he was like in an accident growing up. It's a very chic, edgy, bold look. Like your boys will look up and be like, wow, my dad's a fucking badass. He goes hard in the paint. In the paint. I'll have to tell him that. In his Jewish intramural local league. I'll tell him that. Is it a Jewish league or just a league of Jews?

You know, everybody enjoys a little, a little luxury, luxury darling, from here and there.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
But it can add up, you know, of course, and it's important to find places where you can invest in high quality items, but not get taken for a ride. And, Quince is kind of the go-to place for that. It's our go-to for luxury essentials at an affordable price. So Quince offers a range of high-quality items at prices within reach. So they offer 100% Mongolian cashmere sweaters.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Then they start at just $50. I don't know anywhere you can get a cashmere sweater for $50. They also sell washable silk tops, dresses, organic cotton sweaters, 14-carat gold jewelry, and it's all really reasonably priced. The best part is that Quince's items are priced 50% to 80% less than similar brands that are making the same quality items.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
And how they do that is they partner directly with top factories at Quince, and then they're cutting out the cost of the middleman and passing the savings on to you. Quince only works with factories that use safe, ethical, and responsible manufacturing practices, plus premium fabrics and finishes, which we love. So would you say that they're using top-quality fabric?
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I would give them the TQF stamp of approval. Everything I get from Quince is pargy and I get tons of compliments on cardigans, trousers, things that don't fit me right now, but they will. They will.

I keep waiting for a brand to be like, oh, we love the jokes. Keep up that energy. But stop confusing people. I keep waiting for a brand to be like, let's make the code slash turd. I am shocked that there hasn't been like a social media manager who works for a brand being like, by the way, can we change our code to slash jerk?
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
So that'll be at the end of the show. But in case you haven't seen it yet, you can, we'll have timestamps in the podcast description. And the Love is Blind first two episode season recap is at the end of today's episode during the TV recap section. It was truly one of the worst experiences of my life, just so you know. And I hate to like always be so negative, but that is the energy.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
And brand managers, turt is T-U-R-T.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I just want to say this is just another reason why all states should legally allow you to film courtrooms.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
It depends on the state. But media is different than just like a proud mom with her phone. Oh, sorry. No one is allowed to proud mom with their phone. But media cameras are allowed into certain states. Got it. Johnny Depp, the whole thing being televised. Of course, of course. I think New York is a state where you are not allowed to do that.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
This was in L.A., so I'm assuming California is a pro-media state.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Oh, oh, oh, no. So like all his friends and family were like behind this banister. And then his big ass legal team was like in front of the banister at the desk. So on his way to Rihanna, and I think maybe his mother, there was a blonde lady who was totally like a clerk, like a lawyer. And she got the first hug technically, but that's just because of where she was.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
She was a kind of a victim of circumstance.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
That's his wife. I'm not going to nitpick. That's your partner for life. You have two kids together. They're extremely supportive of one another in good times and in bad. And I'm really happy for them. I never doubted him for a second. I don't know a single detail about the case, but I never doubted him.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
No, it wasn't. But mostly anytime it was, was because of Rihanna. Like she showed up in a look every day to court. She brought her son one day, which there's a lot of conversation about whether that was appropriate or not. Was it a strategic legal move? Like, look, he's a father. Right. I thought it was fine.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I hate to always be so truthful. Yeah. I hate to always be forced to speak my truth.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
But that's also because like A$AP Rocky is literally on his own. I know he's like accomplished, but he's really not famous these days for anything other than being Rihanna's partner.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I'm glad this chapter is over for them. I wasn't into this. It's very stressful. Yeah. And just as somebody who looks like a fan of them as a couple and a family, like this is not an era I was particularly like into. It wasn't fabulous. It wasn't fun. It wasn't fresh. It was sad. Somebody got shot.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Like I'm very much looking forward to them putting this behind them and I'm sure they feel the same way.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Well, big day for people who have just been like waiting for Blake Lively to respond. To do something. Instead of like looking guilty and hiding. And that's why I liked the SNL thing because it's like finally, even if people didn't like it, like people like people who fight back and defend themselves. And so she did that in the public way at SNL and now she's doing it in the courts.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Now, the Hollywood Reporter states that the two actresses who had complained about Justin's behavior, they said unconfirmed, but like sources are saying that it's Jenny Slate and that young blonde girl, Isabella, who played young Lily.

That's actually such a good point. I guess by default, it has to be them.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Well, I think also it's easy to... We know Jenny Slade has beef. Correct. She unfollowed him. She's been very distant. She's vocally supported Blake Lively. So I think that if we had to guess, I would have guessed her. It's a good guess. It's a good guess.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
So the thing is, I feel like as somebody who has up until this point definitely not been on Team Justin, it's nice to see Blake defending herself. But at the end of the day, I do feel like she's lost already. And I don't know what she could say, what she could prove, what she could file that would change people's minds, honestly. Yeah. Well, this definitely helps her case.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I know, but people don't believe that she was sexually harassed.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Yeah, no, by the way, and I'm very curious to see what the law says, but right now we're in the streets. We're in the media. When they did the SNL thing, there was literally 100 articles the next day that were all negative about Blake. She's losing.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Right, one of whom is 23, which is like, and it's like her first time in Hollywood, her first big gig, like how traumatizing. Allegedly. Allegedly, of course.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
No, I'm seriously choking on all my own fluids these days. My own food, my own saliva, my own vomit. It's really just been an amazing time. Being a woman is amazing.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
As somebody who has just kind of been waiting for Blake Lively to do something... I'm extremely grateful that she just kind of stepped her pussy up.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Yeah, and the thing is the whole time to me is that
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
people have been going back and forth on like everybody's personalities, but something that you really couldn't deny because it was both in her claim and then his lawsuit was like agreeing that this meeting had happened after the SAG-AFTRA strike being like, before we come back to work, like we all need to agree that like these things need to stop happening. And he agreed to it.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
So to me, isn't that like an admission that Blake was telling the truth?
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
To me, it was. And... I'm very curious if this at all moves the needle for people who thought Blake Lively was lying about being sexually harassed.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
But have you seen it change the rhetoric online?
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
So you represent like the undecided contingency. And so you think that this, at least a little bit is like momentum in Blake's. Yeah. Got it. Okay.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I also just think it's kind of a big deal.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I do think it's a big deal that these two girls would agree to testify. Cause honestly, after watching this whole thing, who the fuck would want to get involved?
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Especially if you were a victim yourself. Yeah.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I don't know why I just think so low of people in Hollywood. I think that speaking your truth is admirable.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
It's literally like what Lisa, I think about what Lisa Rinna said all the time.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
She randomly, like, and people were like, she's so crazy. Like, if I don't say this thing, she's like, it's going to give me cancer. And it was, like, dumb what she was talking about. But things like that, like, make you physically ill.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Yeah. I am curious. I mean, this was only filed this morning. So like there hasn't been enough time for opinions to change or just like rhetoric to change.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I am really curious to me, the most interesting part, and this is not interesting, obviously it's like a tragedy, but the most interesting part of this whole saga is like seeing how it plays out on social media, especially like with the allegations of AstroTurfing or whatever. I'd be very curious to see if this at all moves the needle.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
And I was having this conversation with somebody yesterday about how this entire It Ends With Us drama is a woman's issue, right? It was women who read the book and made it popular. It was women who went and saw the movie. It's women who are sitting around having these conversations.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I don't know what two straight guys who are talking about like, did you see the counterclaim that Blake Lively dropped? So this is very much like a women's issue about an issue that affects mostly women, sexual harassment, domestic violence, things like that.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
And so it has been wildly interesting to see conversations being had about it all by women and how Blake wasn't really like universally believed. Whereas like up until this point it was, you know, believe women and things of that nature. And that's not the case here. So it's just been like a kind of like a social experiment to watch.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
She has not shared who her children's father is, so of course people think. I just want to say, as Mindy Kaling's number one fan, I actually don't think that BJ Novak is her baby's father. One, because if he was, you wouldn't make him the godfather. Two, it's a little complicated, you know?
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Just kind of, like, to cover it up.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
But then it's also just like Uncle BJ. Like, it doesn't need to be so official, you know?
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
There were also rumors a few years ago that they had stopped being friends. So I feel like it's such an unnecessary complication. If you're like a woman of a certain age and certain success who wants to have children on her own, like there's so many options for you as opposed to, and they're like good options, you know, where you can like get really vetted sperm and things like that.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
To go the route of somebody you know personally adds a real layer of complications that some people don't have the luxury of like some, it's expensive to do it the other way. Yeah. Mindy Kaling has that option, so... You don't think a trusted friend is preferred? Well, a trusted friend in Hollywood? Like, everybody's a snake. They did have, like, a brief period where they weren't speaking.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I just think Mindy Kaling's, like, a little smarter than that. I really don't think that he's the father. You are not the father.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Yeah, but like anonymous sperm, like when you go through like the proper channels, like, yeah, it's technically like a stranger, but it's super vetted. It's really, it's a beautiful thing. And it's, it's a good option. So is a trusted friend. Yeah, but it's a good option, sorry, with no potential complications. Unless, I do always wonder, like 23andMe, how that affects sperm donors.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
It's literally a documentary on Hulu.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Okay. Well, I guess the point of the story is not who her dad is.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
like netflix knows that people don't like tune in for the pod episodes it's everything that happens after that that's more interesting so i feel like in recent years they've given us like two pod episodes and it's actually really not enough for us to understand these people so the the episode there is a perfect balance between amount of pod time we're seeing while also retaining entertainment value and they have so taken it too far this time and then it's also about dollars and cents watch time they're just trying to beef up these episodes they have more streaming hours i fucking
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
1,000%, I've never thought that. By the way, give me a Bible. We have never, ever made up a submission.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Also, I do want to say that this is a great opportunity that last week there was a Dear Toasters about a girl who read through her husband's text with his mother and he was like being really weird about their sex life. And it didn't occur to either of us. But so many people in the comments were like, girls, it's probably not his mom that he's texting. It's like a girl, a hooker.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
And he's put her name in as mom because like no one's going to read that text being like, oh, he's cheating on me with his mother. And I thought that was a good call.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
That's what we thought. Like normal people.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
No. Yeah, because at first it was just an exchange. But then it's true love.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Nothing I've ever seen. No, you know what it is? You ever see that movie with Helen Hunt? She plays a sex therapist. Okay. For like paraplegics or people who are like physically unable. Yeah, it's called The Sessions.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
and that sounds like but it's she's her name is cheryl green she's a sex surrogate it's actually based on a true story um and i forget her patient is like paraplegic or something and of course they end up falling in love it's very beautiful so it's kind of like that
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Kind of a love story for the ages.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Um, the story at hand is that Mindy Kaling got a star on the walk of fame earned. Oh, earned beyond. I can't believe she didn't even have one. If not just for her, like self as an actress, when you think about like Mindy project, the office, what she's contributed to modern television, sex lives of college girls, um, She's doing Lele Bond 2 if it ever comes out. Three. Three.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
And Never Have I Ever on Netflix. Like true, true queen.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
And of course like she should already have one, but like she has to get one, you know, like everyone has their time. And the process of the Hollywood Walk of Fame is so weird. It's not like what you would think. And the people who get it, like it's always so delayed. I think they have like a really high bar, which I appreciate.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Where are the Oscars? Don't you feel like- They were postponed. Because of the fires?
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I just feel like I've stopped caring.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I know. For what? I watched Amelia Perez and Love is Blind. Netflix cut me a check for the time that I have wasted losing brain cells with your content. Yeah. Penis to vagina, vagina to penis. That was such a good song. Should we stream it? If you want. Do you know what the song is called? Like the title of the song?
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
La vaginoplastia. Feminine. The feminine plastia.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I'm literally like Tim Dillon and you are... What's his assistant's name? Like Ben?
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Yeah. For sure, Ben. Um... Something about sunglasses and podcasting is a special breed. I actually spoke to Tim Dillon this morning because he said it was funny that I looked like him. And I get why he does it. You definitely feel like a different person. You can kind of say shit because your eyes are covered.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
It also feels anonymous. People who tell you to kill yourself and anonymously comment it, I kind of understand them right now because I have sort of this sheet over me. You have anonymity. Yeah. My name is Claudia Hash. And I'm wearing sunglasses. Yeah. So if it feels like I'm acting different, that's why. Should I take them off and see like if my vibe changes?
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
When they all meet in person. When they're on island time. And they have to like sleep in the same bed as an actual stranger.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I'm like the nerd who takes off his glasses and everybody realizes he's handsome. It's true. A princess. How do I look? Smile. Don't smile. Take off your sunglasses. Don't take off your sunglasses. What should I do? I know like if I, now when I go back and watch the episode, whatever I do, I'm gonna be like, I should have kept them on or I should have taken them off. Should we plug in the monitor?
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
And what about an X, like Nike X Skims? That also is chunky.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Less pods. But I understand that the pods are the foundation of the show. There is a way to do it. They're not doing it well. Yeah. So we'll get into the TV recap.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Legit. And Skims has been doing a couple of things that like really are moving them out of just like the women's underwear space and into all different things. Like they're the official underwear of the NBA. Like if you watch any NBA game, their logo is literally on the court. It's so crazy.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
So this is just like adding an air of legitimacy to Skims while also further entering this like kind of sports world for some reason. Like performance wear. Performance, yeah. So the name is so terrible, but the concept is not a bad idea. Although I don't understand what they're making.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Hopefully. I think that feels right. And in an age where like kind of everybody's really pushing women's sports, Caitlin Clark, the WNBA, things of that nature, Simone Biles, it's a good time. Lots of momentum for the, who do we think is going to be the face?
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I mean, that space is huge. Like Aloe, Lululemon.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Okay, that's actually a good point. I see it. Now I understand what you're saying. The name really needs to be better. Like she is the face.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
And she's so like fit, sports, workout. Yeah. But the name is really bad. Now that I'm kind of understanding what it is, and if you are competing in that like wellness, women's wear, athleisure space, which is so big, Nike Skims is like such a harsh, ugly name.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
And when you're not Pargy, You're Largy, you know? You're Nargy. It's not good.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
You guys. Okay. So I thought we were recording at 1030, not 10 o'clock. So I got here like super early and I was just, I got a pargy parking spot like right out front and it was a spot right in front of me. So I was like, I wasn't holding it, but if anybody came by, I would have been like, it Seats taken. My sister is really special. Like, please, she needs this spot.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
What do you think is the opposite, the antonym of Pargy? Nargy? Nargy. I guess. We need to workshop it. Sound off in the comments, you guys. What's the opposite? Yucky. Yeah, the antonym.com of Pargy. I guess it would be yucky. I just wanted it to rhyme.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
It's yucky. Now, before we dive into the fifth and final story, and of course, the TV recap that we haven't even begun to get into yet. Oh my God. Holy shit. Are you okay? That's how long COVID. Literally. Smoker's cough. Now that you're commuting to work, it's a perfect place to have a cigarette.

They get into the same car and they're laughing. So they're in love. There has been a lot of speculation about who Glenn Powell is going to date because on his rise to fame, he was in a relationship for a pretty long time. So he never was able to use his celebrity and his dating life to catapult him to another life, because that's always how it happens.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
And he really is like this big time Hollywood movie star, really one of the most eligible young men. There was like those rumors about him and Sidney Sweeney, but like he wasn't dating her. That was fake. So we've never really seen him in a celebrity relationship. This is the first time. If it's a relationship. Let's operate like it is. Let's talk like it is.

And I think that Glenn Powell really wants to be taken seriously as like a one day, like an Oscar level actor. And I think that him, you know, swimming in the same pools, BAFTA, London, Lily James, like, It's Pargy. It's well thought out. I like it.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
That sounds like what you're saying. Like you think low of Glenn Powell.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I think, I think, let me tell you my POV, okay? Cause I'm like, I'm on FaceTime. I'm fixing my makeup. I'm just like, you know, making, I knew you were going to take a while to park wherever you went. And I'm like, damn, she's really taking a long time. So I look at my rear view mirror and I see her standing in the street behind me and your car is parking itself.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I'm really shocked to hear you say this.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
That's fair. And I like that for him. What, only girls can do that? You'd love to see men and women dominated fields. Like, this is fun. Yeah. This is fun. And as he should. Like, I like when people use their dating life to catapult their careers. Like, I think that's really an interesting way of getting famous and of rising your star. And Glenn, like, Glenn has the roles.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
You know, he has the looks. But he needs like a Hollywood star look.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
This is him getting us invested. Like we talked about Gracie Abrams very briefly. This is something new. We have a picture now. Like he is actually taking us with him. You don't see it. You don't understand Glenn like I do. I don't see the vision.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I think Glenn lives in Austin. I think he's kind of like a local hometown hero. In terms of what he does, I know he loves his family. All he does is hang out with his mom and his friends. And he still accepts each other's awesomeness. That's what I think.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Yeah, even though I could also see Glenn having a really good team around him.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I just feel like you want something sinister to be going on here with Glenn, and I can almost tell you for certain that there's not. He's just like a guy. He's just laughing after this is what you're saying? He's catching a ride home, okay? With a pretty girl? Pretty girls need to get home too. Or it's just being a gentleman taking her home. Like maybe her car got lost or whatever.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
And I mean the jacket. Like they're telling us something. Yeah, by the way, the jacket. Okay. Not you turning me into a hater, but the jacket is giving staged.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Let's talk about the jacket because actually there's no way she needed the jacket inside the party. Like parties are often really warm. And so, okay, she needed the jacket to walk from the curb to the car where the car obviously has heat if it's cold in London right now. Like- And look at the girl behind her shivering. Like, I didn't give her a jacket. Okay, so it was cold.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
That looks like, I literally thought it was Gucci Sorbo.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
And I'm like, damn, these new cars are really sick. And the car is moving and twisting and turning and getting into the spot. I'm like, that is really cool to see in action. I know that there are cars that park themselves. You've heard about such things. I've never seen it. I'm like, that's my sister, the ingenue, picking herself up by her bootstraps and using the self-parking.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Because you know me. I love to like... Oh. Oh.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Let me just, just give me a minute, because a picture says a thousand words, and there's like 11 pictures. So we have 11,000 words. Lem Powell is so hot. Like, that's the worst thing I'm thinking. The party was inside, so there's no way she needed the jacket inside. And also, to be clear, she's wearing a blazer, so it's like two jackets.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Yeah, I don't know. So they first met in 2018. They played a married couple in something called the Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Society.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Wait, now I have to read it and watch the movie starring the two of them. So they could also just be friends. Like they worked together in 2018. The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society. That's far too long of a name for a film and that's why it wasn't successful.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
And if you're not, it's time for the Love is Blind recap, where Jackie and I are going.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Right, you're watching the most dreadful season of a show that once was good. And I feel like, obviously we talk about this all the time, like some seasons are really amazing and some are fine. There's never been one that's like unwatchable.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
So- Yeah, but I don't remember the pod episodes feeling like teeth being pulled.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
And I'm still watching. And then I see somebody's hands on the wheel and you're standing out on the curb. I'm like, wait, I think there's a person in her car.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
You fell for it. Well, in the first two episodes, we only get one engagement. And then the first reveal happens in the first couple of minutes of the third episode, which I did watch. Who is it? Joey, who is the long-haired golden retriever.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
And Monica. And Monica. They are perfect for each other. The reveal was butt-clenchingly cringe, but because they're matching each other's level of freaky. It all went well. It's not cringe for anything bad. I actually think... They are a good couple.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Now, I had an actual physical reaction to something one of the girls said, and she's probably one of my least. She's definitely my least favorite.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
person on the show because every time she talks it's exactly what you and I were saying at the top of this show like it's you say something really bland and boring and you act like it's revolutionary conversation and it's the girl who said she like listened to Joe Rogan and the ant farm yeah and she was like and maybe natural disasters are just like superior beings superior beings and somebody you know shaking up our ant farm and then she kind of like left it silent for him to be like whoa and I was like
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Are you fucking dumb? Like, it was seriously like, oh, yeah, she was like, I have a lot of like high sober thoughts. You know, I'm sober, but like, I think like a high person. I'm like, oh, you're so crazy.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I don't know if there's room in a relationship for two ant farm people. But I don't know if somebody who's not an ant farm person can sleep next to somebody who is. It's a really good question you ask. I don't know. These are bottom of the barrel conversations that we're having about these people. They have given us nothing.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Now I know we're only two episodes in and I would like to ask permission from our audience. Please let us stop watching this. It's genuine psychological torture. It's uninteresting people. There's no drama. Now there are people who are having mutual connections. So like Dave, who's this guy who's like an asshole, but then was really nice.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
And like, there's always a Dave, a guy who's like, doesn't think.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Meanwhile, he has two connections. One, Molly, who's honestly a cutie. Matthew had two connections.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
as well right he's a cutie and then he's also connecting with lauren who was the girl who like took a year off she was a teacher she wasn't making a livable wage um she is vibing with dave and she at the end of the episode too like finds out that molly is too it's like oh my god it's almost like that's the concept of this fucking show right and when she somebody's like i feel like somebody molly says to her i feel like we don't have the same connection so i can tell you like i'm really vibing with dave meanwhile she's like literally talking to the other woman her face like she's so like so backdressed like
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I can't be here. Like I can't be here. That's the whole point of the show. Yeah. Who do you think he should pick and who do you think he will pick? I don't think you should pick either of them. I don't think that either of them are well suited because I don't think the person we're seeing is like really who he is. Right. I think we got little glimpses. Like I work in medical aesthetics.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Like I'm around a lot of Botox. Who the fuck says that? Yeah. And also, what does that mean? People having very vague jobs. I work in medical aesthetics. Do you engineer Botox? Are you the receptionist at a med spa? And then his description says medical sales. So I think he like sells parts for cosmetology. And then the NBA dancer, she says she has a doctorate in healthcare administration.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
She's like, people are really surprised when they find out I work in a hospital and then I'm a doctor. Well, a doctor who works in a hospital is different than somebody with a doctorate. Yeah. So I just feel like everybody's very misleading about their jobs. But I do really like Devin. That's who's talking to? Britanny and NBA dancer. He is like loves his job. He loves kids. He loves basketball.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
He just wants everybody to love basketball and the kids as much. He's a youth sports. I really like him. I think he's like a PJ. He's just really young. And all the women he's talking to are much older. Oh, yeah. And he went to the same high school. And she was like, five years later. It's not that many years.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
But we need to talk about the implications of a small town. on the personalities that come on this show. On the entertainment value for the show. We always talk about how important it is, the city that they're in. And some of the best seasons are just these urban metropolises with people from all different walks of life. Most recently, D.C. was not a good season because people in D.C. are weird.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
And so I think where you're from, But then a really good season where people are really weird was, like, the Portland, Oregon, Seattle area. Like, it was a good season. The people weren't freaks. It was an okay season. It was a good season.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
That was Jimmy and Chelsea, no? No, that was North Carolina. Oh, yeah. Okay, North Carolina was a good city, too. So the city... Whatever. The city... means a lot. And I was actually really looking forward to Minnesota. I mean, that guy Joey, his accent is fucking crazy. I don't even know what Minnesota people talk like, but he is a walking cliche.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Nobody else really has that terrible of an accent. He must be really local. Or from a specific part of Minnesota. Because most of them live in St. Paul, like downtown. And I fear it's not giving a good look for people from Minnesota. And I don't want to paint with a broad brush. But it's so vanilla.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
That we just are not being packaged properly. We're the crazy people. You know, like you need to sprinkle them in. And in addition to the serious people who are taking the experiment seriously, you need to have the assholes, the people who are clearly there to get famous, the people who have like really nutty personalities. There's none of that.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Everybody is like so normal to the point of bored to tears.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
But six episodes of pods is waterboarding.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
But she left her kids on the side.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
And whoever's idea it was to have people in the pods do a date night where they're doing silent discos. And we're obviously not listening to what they're listening to because then they put on like their generic music and we're watching them like bop it to like selling sunset pop music. Like seriously stop.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
She was doing it, no, with Mason, the cinematographer. She's like, oh, we're both artists.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Okay, so she's getting like, it's obviously a late night date and she's like kind of like horny and she's being like really weird and like sexually suggestive, like telling him that her nipples are pierced. And she was like, he's like, I love mini skirts. And she was like, oh, then you would have loved my micro mini the other day. And he was like,
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I was talking to you and you were wearing a micro mini skirt. Why didn't you tell me? And then they're like also doing putt-putt as their date. And so she like holds both hands on the golf club and like shakes her ass in a mini skirt towards the wall that divides them. And he obviously can't see it. So she's like, oh, by the way, I just twerked. And he goes- You know how to twerk?
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Like, as if she, like, tied a cherry. She just, like, shook her ass. She didn't even, actually, she didn't twerk. She just, like. By the textbook definition. Yeah, textbook, she actually did not twerk. She just, like, did, like, a hip dip.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Yeah. It's really like been so unenjoyable thus far. Sound off in the comments. Sounds amazing. We are funny. By the way, we... literally what each episode is like a little over an hour. So I watched like almost two and a half hours.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I hope Netflix learns from this though. Yeah. Because they definitely in the past have made the pods too short where like you really don't understand the people and it's hard to get really invested. So it's a perfect, it's always dreadful. It's always like a little hard because you're like learning all these people's names.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I'd stay in chat, but I don't want to stay in chat. The bench is probably the worst thing to happen to this show because the best part of the reveals is how awkward it is that they have to stand and like be fully in gowns and meet someone new for the first time. The fact that they sit, it lets them get like a little bit more comfortable and I don't like it. I want them to be weird.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Correct. All right. Well, that's our show, you guys. We kind of crushed it. Classic us. Classic us. Anything else you want to say before we wrap?
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I literally thought the car was driving itself.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
And every day you're always like, I parked today. I thought you knew how to park. Who doesn't know how to park? I don't know how to parallel park. I'm not going to lie. What's the point? Everywhere you go has a massive fucking parking lot. I know how to parallel park. It will take me like 15 minutes, but I can do it.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Unless it's on the left side of the street. Was it on the left? Like were you, was the parking spot to your left or to your right? To my right. Oh, okay. That I can do like in 10 minutes. I can't do it.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Yeah. And just leave your insurance card wherever you go.

Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
By the way, kids are one thing, and it's honest. And you did try. Yeah. And she's actually being nice saying good job because she didn't even do it. Sweet girl. It should have been bad job trying to drive.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
She doesn't know you're a commuter.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
And what does that do? Does it beep boop bop in parallel parks? Like and having said that the one time I tried to use it, it said feature not available. So I don't know why.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
That's the kind of car I really understood why wheels couldn't go like perpendicular to the car.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I am still feeling like not my most beautiful self. I've even been blowing out my hair while I'm here. So the sunglasses today, they may come off, but they're on for now. She's on vacation time. She's on island time. On island time. And we have such an exciting episode. So it's Wednesday, which means the vibes are high. You know, we're humping someone you love.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
You're right. What Away Suitcase did for the 360 degree wheel, somebody needs to do. GM needs to do for the car.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I haven't heard from him in a while, I feel like. I always, for some reason, the fact that Jerry Springer passed away is a fact that doesn't stick in my brain. And I find myself constantly being reminded of it and getting sad all over again. That's hard. And I'm sorry that his Netflix documentary didn't take off.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I saw it on the homepage and I was like, well, if everybody starts talking about it, I'll watch it. I didn't hear a word. Not everyone can be Martha. Jerry deserves more than that.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
You know, like every time- But you went to the Jerry Springer show once. Every time we talk about a celebrity, I'm like, oh yeah, I just ran into him. You know, I saw Connor Kennedy and his military mates at Zero Bond. But I did meet Jerry Springer. But not at Zero Bond. Not at Zero Bond, at the Jerry Springer show. So that's what makes this story unlike any other story.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Yeah, but I know it sounds like, well, Claudia, anybody could just go to the Jerry Springer show. Why are you special? And that's true. Anybody can. But not everybody gets invited back to Jerry's office because the social media manager listens to our podcast. And Jerry was so nice. He talked to me and my friends. You know, you forget because he plays this character.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
He's just kind of this old Jewish guy. You know, he gives very much like, you know, Kat Steiner energy.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
And he said, congrats on all your success. I hope I never see you on my show. Have a good day. And I said, thank you, Jerry. And you honored that wish. Yeah.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
You know how they keep old franchises alive with new Ryan Seacrest on? Now, I guess it's called The Jerry Springer Show, so I don't know who else could do it besides Jerry, but I would love to see a millennial.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
They don't they don't ask me enough. And I feel like the networks are always looking for like where to put Jerry O'Connell.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Don't forget to get your pillow humping saddle and do just that. But we also are going to be doing a little bit of a TV recap. Jackie and I... Endeavored. Unfortunately committed ourselves last night to watching the first two episodes of the new season of Love is Blind, which is something that doesn't sound so crazy, right? Yeah, we do it all the time.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
It pretty much comes back to the six episodes of pods. I will say I'm having a lot of trouble sleeping at this stage of my pregnancy. Last night I threw up in my sleep and woke up choking on my own vomit. Acid reflux. I also woke up three times to pee. I woke up with heartburn. It was just a never-ending evening. But I did want to thank...
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
love is blind because the first few hours of sleep were like truly dreamless, peaceful, wonderful, because they gave me nothing. They were so bored, you were lulled into a deep sleep. A dreamless sleep. They didn't stimulate my brain at all.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Hmm, what did I do last night? No, no, I have this terrible feeling that something awful happened to me last night. And when I woke up, I was like, why is there this heaviness on my chest? And it was because I spent three hours watching the worst television I've ever watched. And then I have to wake up and talk about it.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I know. The best part of Love is Blind is like catching up and then going on social media and reading the funny tweets. And people were being so funny on Twitter. And usually I don't do that until I'm fully caught up, but I actually don't care.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Yeah. So, oh, good luck getting me to remember anyone's names. I did write it down because I was like, short guy is Daniel. Of course. Love him. Ben Platt. Wait, who's Ben Platt? Alex? Yeah, Alex. Who was bullied? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, he was bullied for not being Ben Platt. That's actually such a good call.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Okay, so Dave is talking to Molly and Lauren.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Yeah, I like when people look different, you know? Like Madison and the other blonde, like they all look the same.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Sarah, blonde girl. She's talking to Ben who's very religious and her sister's gay. Yes, her sister is gay.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
Yeah, no, it's like nobody has anything like individualistic about them.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
And I don't know why it was the hardest thing I've ever done in my life. It's a show that I absolutely love. And I was actually excited for Minnesota. I thought, you know, we'd really get to know the elk of Minnesotans. And unfortunately, I think we did. And I think it's not a good elk because, oh, my God, so dreadful. We will be doing so.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
And Britanny is also B-Dot. Yes. And Devin is also D-Buck. Devin likes the other girl who's an NBA dancer. I didn't write down her name. But this is not the Love is Blind recap.

With one product, it allows you to blur, smooth, and illuminate the look of skin. And I have to shout out to social media for this because I saw people using it like a couple of years ago and I wasn't entirely sure what it was for.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
I wasn't sure if it was something you wore under foundation for glow or something you could swap out for foundation if you just wanted a little bit like of a lighter coverage. Turns out you can use both. It's kind of this like a miracle product that I feel like everybody's copying, but Charlotte's is the OG and it is the best.

Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
When you think about all the money that you spend on skincare, beauty products, things for your hair, battling any issues like acne, damaged hair, eczema, rashes, a lot of people don't realize that they're completely overlooking the fundamental step, and that's the water that they shower in.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
So we all know how important it is to, like, filter the water that you drink, but we really don't think the same way when we think about the water that we shower in. And clean water is the first step to an effective beauty routine, and it's a step that I, for one, completely overlooked for many years. And Jolie can make a huge difference in your skin, your hair, and your overall well-being.
The Toast
Love is Bland: The Toast, Wednesday, February 19th, 2025
It's a beauty wellness company that purifies the water we shower in for better skin, hair, and overall well-being. Jolie's filtered showerhead is best in class for removing chlorine, heavy metals, and it's the only lab-tested and clinically trialed filtering showerhead on the market. So some statistics. It's clinically proven to reduce hair shedding by 81% of people, which is really crazy.
The Toast

It's lab-tested to maintain your hair color if you color your hair. It's lab-tested to reduce frizziness by 40%. You don't even think about all the things that go wrong in your life that are attributed to like having poor water quality. And Jolie is actually making us realize like your hair is not the problem. It's the water. Jolie shower heads are also just pargy.

What can I say except you're welcome. What is the actual words after that?
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Hey, it's okay, it's okay, you're welcome.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Oh, my God. Long COVID is taking Kylie Kelsey down as well. Oh, my God. Long COVID strong. I could stop. Long COVID strong.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Move your mic out of the way. Yep. And just let it rip. She has to do what she has to do. And this is a show that's recorded live to tape. If you want it up early, we're not going to be able to edit out these coughs, you guys. We are just that authentic, okay? So much better. Thank you.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
And I remember when I was recording it, I had like, I think just announced that I was pregnant. So I was like really feeling insecure about my body. Meanwhile, I look amazing comparatively. Like, oh, wish I looked like that now. So just like, if you know me, I like my friend Rachel texted me and she was like, oh my God, Jay Shetty. I'm like, please don't watch it.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
To be honest, I'm not really entirely interested in how these two found out. To me, that's not the most interesting part. I really, and I have no proof of this, just based on vibes. I feel like I know Taylor well. I've studied her my whole life. And I'm learning so much about Kylie. She's new to the public sphere.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
And I just can't see these two really getting along, in a way, outside of being potential sister-in-laws. They're both lovely and nice, but on a real personality level, I don't think these two would find each other in high school and be good friends.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Yeah. Yeah. It could come off rude but it's more so like media trained.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
grew up like in- Taylor went down the shore, I can't see it.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
And that- I just, I can't picture Scott's and Andrea and Andrew and Taylor like all at- It's not like Jersey Shore, the show. No, no, I know, but I just like- It's just the local beach. Because the Jersey Shore is like a very popular beach town. Yes. There's like many different towns. We know from the show, but like most of it is just like suburban Jersey, I know. I just can't see it.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
What is Taylor's? Oh, Austin Swift. I called him Andrew. I'm watching too much Desperate Housewives.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
It's definitely not. I heard he had a boner, and it was for me.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Like, if you know me, and Olivia texted me too. She's like, I'm watching Jay Shetty, loving it. I'm like, please stop. Disconnect your wifi. Shannon was like, when does the video come out? I was like, Shannon, don't.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Yeah, I also feel like with the Donna Kelsey vibe, how you said, sometimes it could seem like they hate Taylor, but mostly they're just afraid and don't wanna say the wrong thing. I also think at some point it does get annoying to just constantly be asked.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
I always think that when I saw Chrissy Abrams was on the cover of Cosmopolitan and obviously a huge part of her life and her fandom is the conversions of Taylor Swift. She opened for Taylor. So the questions are natural, but I feel like that happens a lot with Taylor where she gets brought up in random spaces and it's annoying and like, For Kylie, she's out here like a mom of four.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
She's a spokesperson for her community. She's an athlete. She's pregnant. She's a podcast host. In every interview, and of course you have to ask about Taylor. But it also could be like, okay, can I have a moment to myself?
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Yeah. Speaking of like internet stuff, I, over the weekend during the Super Bowl, I have thought this for quite some time, just being like a chronically online big time loser. But then I saw a lot of conversations on like social media, specifically TikTok being spoken about Alex Earle's relationship with Alex Cooper.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
And I had thought for a while that like they kind of fizzled, like they were hot and fast for like a couple of months. And then it fizzled, which is natural. Like Alex Earle's doing a million things. She's like the face of a million brands. But they were then at the Super Bowl together.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Cut the cords at Olivia's house, please. So I'm just like, I'm feeling, and I'm not embarrassed about anything that I, I mean, I'm embarrassed. No, it's not about embarrassed.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
And I think it became like so glaringly obvious when they were at the same event this weekend, the Super Bowl. And Cooper, I'm just going to use last names for the sake of brevity. Cooper was like throwing a bunch of events for her company. And Earl is a part of that company. And all the talent that's a part of the company was there posting. And Earl was not.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Yeah, and so a lot of people are pointing to this episode of Alex Earle's podcast that she now – it's kind of rebranded. She hosts it with her sister, which I think was a great call. I actually really like the sister.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
It's a remote sister podcast. They had their dad on. They had their dad on. And I didn't know that their dad like manages them. I mean, he's a very successful business person. They own like a huge, they're like very independently wealthy. And he owns a huge trucking company. And if you actually have ever been in the tri-state area and you're just like on the highway, you'll see one of his trucks.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
It's called Earl's Trucking or something. Like it's huge.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
No, I don't think so because it was the first time I had heard it. And I feel like that's such an interesting fact. And I love when people keep things in the family. I feel like I would have heard that. So the first time, my introduction was when she released a podcast with him like two months ago. And they were just talking about like his POV on them and their careers and his business background.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
And he had said a couple of things that are now, I think at the time didn't really make waves, but now appear to be making a little bit more sense. Just being like, yeah, now that he's involved, we're going to start doing things a little bit differently. And he's like, there were some things I saw at the beginning of your career that I wasn't entirely comfortable with.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
And I think a lot of people had just immediately drawn attention. her interview on Call Her Daddy, they thought he was referencing that because they do get like, you know, very sexual. They were like talking about anal.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Like, is there a... He must have made it seem more clear than I'm making it in this moment. I'm just paraphrasing. Okay. But... And it also could, he could be talking about something completely fucking different. You know, we're just like, we're all speculating here, but that's what the internet sort of assumed. But maybe we're all just like looking for clues now because of the Superbowl thing.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
And sometimes it's actually easier to tell a complete stranger your deepest, darkest secret than it is to tell like your sister.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
I've, I've been like watching this being like, Oh, these two definitely don't get along anymore. And like some things, and she's going to leave the network. Um, when her contract is up. I don't know when that is, but I think the Superbowl and like the lack of them being together, even spotted once made this like a much more mainstream thing now where I'm seeing it all over my social media.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Whereas before I was just like, you know, thinking to myself, I'm like, Oh, I wonder what's going on. Yeah.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Yes, well, contracts are contracts. But she's not supporting the network. That's the thing. And I think a part of when you become a talent on that network is you go to events, you do products, you make content for social media, you guest on other unwell shows. It's a full-time job. Yeah, Clambakes, Trips to the Cape.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
And she was doing that at one point because I remember she went to South by Southwest when it was just her and Madeline Argy. Those were the first two talents. But radio silence ever since.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
So check that out. It's video and audio. And we love Jay Shetty in this house. And like only he could get me to talk like that. So like kill me.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
I know. To me, this is a gossip I find interesting. This is internet drama, podcast drama. I need to know.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
I want to see something. Yeah. Her shows on the podcast network still says unwell. So she is like legally and probably like ad sales wise being distributed by unwell.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
You're involved a little bit, but you're supposed to sort of be like steering this ship while keeping the show entertaining. And he did make me chuckle a couple of times. Like he did a really good job as a podcaster in that moment, but also a brother and friend.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Of all the people in all the land, you are the least allowed to watch it. Like we are too close for you to know that shit. Okay.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Yes, I saw that too, which I loved. Quickly, just back to Travis's monologue about the Super Bowl. He did this thing that I also saw Patrick Mahomes doing in the press conference immediately after the game where it was like blaming yourself. Being like the whole, the reason we lost was all my fault. I wasn't a good enough leader. I was making mistakes. And it's like,
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Do you feel like he is going to retire? It's not like so obvious. I feel like with Jason, it was like he didn't say it, but we just knew based on a multitude of things. I feel like it could be a little early for Travis, but if he did, like it would be good too.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
It's also hard because Travis is 35 and Patty Mahomes is 29. So like that six year age difference, like is where like your career is, you know, those are like the best years. So I can see him like almost staying to keep up with Patty and be this dynamic duo that they are, you know, Patrick and Travis, Travis and Patrick. Um, But Patrick was born in 1995. Like, that's really crazy.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Worst. That's a really, really good place to be.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
You are barred from watching. Okay. I'm going to tell Jay Shetty to block you. I hope you guys enjoy it because I can. Yeah. Like if you, if there's a particular moment you think Jackie might like find funny, feel free to like, you know, take a video and send it to her, but that's it. Yeah, that is it.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
No, seriously. Just call me Stephen A. Smith.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Oh, that's so funny. And then you like meet a toaster in the wild with her husband who like kind of hates you. You know, he's like taking the picture like to be a good husband. And you could tell like he knows who you are. He's like, yeah, we listen in the car. And, you know, he just like wants to actually shoot you just to end the misery. We've all been there. So I get it. Yeah.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Who's my Colin Cowherd, Claudia, Jackie Asher? Let me think. Who does Ben listen to for takes that literally gives the worst takes ever? Ben doesn't really consume content.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
But he just goes through phases of interests. He'll be really into Eastern medicine for a while, and he'll find a bunch of meditative, sort of like Jay Shetty, spiritual leaders. And then he'll get really into punk music. Like he just like goes, like he doesn't have a consistent fave. No, no.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Like who does he even follow on social media? Like when he scrolls through. Oh, oh, I'm sorry. I know who my husband's Colin Cowherd is. It's these four guys. It's Alex Guarnaschelli. Correct. And they're not, they don't even give takes. I just am forced to watch. So Ben is obsessed with this group of guys on TikTok.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
It's like four guys and they go and play mini golf and they make really high quality videos of the game. And it's like, It's like a five minute video rundown of all the halls being like, Sam is going for a part two. And they get like really high quality like video shots. It's in fucking sufferable to watch and listen to. He thinks it's so cool.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
I know he would die, die to go play a game with them and like get in one of their videos because Ben loves mini golf. I find it like ringing in my ear.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
No. Just himself. Does he watch golf? Yes. Golf doesn't have like raging commentary. It's like a silent sport.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Is this only number two? Cause that was like four stories in one. Yes.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
So that's why I've had a morning, just kind of being a national sensation in the vulnerability community. What have you had this morning?
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
People don't use SMH. Mandy Moore throwing around an SMH is what makes this story Fast Five worthy. Too bad it wasn't an SMDH. SMFH. Shaking my fucking head.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
So I saw this, and honestly, I kind of rolled my eyes. While, yes, it is really crazy that the package is outside of a door that no longer exists. I think he ordered something. Right, no, I have to think about the driver. The driver still has a job to do. I imagine if you lose packages as a driver, you are docked in some way. What is the driver realistically supposed to do?
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
And to be honest, if I ordered a package and I had a house that burned down and it said delivered, I would go and get it. At least you kind of know where it is. And I just think in the grand scheme, Mandy Moore has lost everything. Her in-laws have lost everything. She's been one of the most vocal people, a celebrity who really lost a lot. This isn't really worth her time and energy.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
they ordered something well by the way this is totally what happened no no that's a good call it's happened to me all the time like when you move and you forget to update your address so like they needed they like are in a rental or something and they needed towels because they're whatever and they sent the towels to the old bird down house like i know how it happened and and it's unfortunate for sure amazon has amazing customer service and it's just like it's really not as
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Of course not. But I do have logistical questions for the Amazon driver. Like, when an entire block of homes is burned down, how do you know which is, like, house 39?
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Somewhere. Somewhere. Yeah. I just, I think as a celebrity, like when you use your platform to complain like about customer service, like you have to be really particular because it does look like out of touch for a celebrity to be like, oh, Delta, you didn't give me a refund. It's one of my least fucking favorite things. Like, it's okay for regular folk to do.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Like that's what social media is so great for is like getting access to customer service you might not get just like waiting on the phone. When celebrities do it, it is so out of touch. I don't care if you're, we were just talking about Jessica Chastain versus JetBlue, the people versus JetBlue. Like, It was, and she's probably right.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Like give her her $1,500, but it's like, girl, girl, you have an Oscar. Like you'll be fine. So you have to be really prudent as a celebrity when you're going to use your platform for customer service need. And I don't think that this was worth it.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
And it sounds like, since they were able to take a photo of the box, that they got the box.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Yeah, all my sisters are together without me.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Yeah, no, it's kind of admirable. Like no matter the circumstance, this post-apocalyptic street in Los Angeles, like Amazon still shows up. And by the way, you don't know what the driver has been through. Has the driver lost his home? And like the driver's just trying to get through the day and like get a paycheck and just deliver packages. Like- I don't know, it's an L for Mandy.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Yeah, like rain or shine, fire and rain. And brimstone. We will be there. We've got your package. And that's the kind of delivery I've come to expect from Amazon. So I'm not shocked to see that big box. And you know there were towels in that box. It's just like such a perfect size for towels.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
it's the more-in-laws, so what's her husband's name?
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Goldsmith. She married a Jew. Does Goldsmith. So really is her machatunum sister.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
My current towels. And I like to rotate them out. Like quite frequently. My current towels are Brooklyn in. Um. After we talked about Macha Tenem Sista, Maddie texted me. She's like, I love it. She wants to be called Macha Tenem Sista from now on.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Are you ready? So overlooked. Let's not get into it, but we're so hilarious and overlooked.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
It's giving I, Ross, take thee, Rachel. Emily! Yeah. If you know, you know. Yeah, sounds really funny. It really was. It also shook the community at the time, like in 1999 when that happened. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I wasn't aware, but people were not okay.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Here's the thing. You know, I'm always the first person to make Tarek almost the villain in a story. And he is most of the time. Given the fact that these two look so similar, Tarek and Christina still co-parent and still work together so much. I can imagine being on a job site with like a beautiful blonde. And calling her Christina. Do you know what I mean? He did for so many years.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
So I don't think that this is, you know, there was any ill will when Tarek did it. I don't know if I would have shared with the world that I did that, but that's why me and Tarek are different. We are very different, me and Tarek.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
It sounds kind of familiar. I thought you were gonna quote one of my favorite quotes about God, which is, blacking out is God's way of saying, forget about it.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
We're also inherently the same, and I think that's why we beef so hard, because it's like, I hate myself.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
I am a moof mama. At least I know Ben can never leave me and use our pet names because they're not generic like love bug, buddy hump. It's moof mama. It's moof-a-lish.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
He could never call anybody moof-a-lish. And the thing is, is that all of our weird nicknames, I guess, are originated from maybe at one point in our relationship, Ben called me Muffin.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
And then it became Muffon, Muff, Muffalish, Big Daddy Muff, Big Papa Muff. Like, yeah.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Big Mama Muff. Big. Small Mama Muff. Now it's like, it's Muffalish. That's what Ben calls me.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Yeah. I'm trying to think, like, when Ben comes home, what does he say? Like... Mufalish, yeah.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
No, but we've really evolved to Mufalish recently.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
He's Brunjalish, Mufalish, and he's Papa.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
I wonder if our kids are going to call him Papa instead of Daddy.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
I so want my kids like, Ma, Papa. I want them to be like Eastern European shtetl.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Love that. well Tariq and I also think if you train your kids to call the father papa they will say mama first as opposed to dada that's what actually my physical therapist who just had a baby she was telling me life hack if you don't want them to say dada first make them call like father oh that's really funny like make it too hard I just want to say like both my kids said mama first
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Slay the house down. Yeah, that's right. Mom of the year. World's greatest mom. You bitches could never raise in the standard for women.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
By the way, it doesn't sound like you have COVID. It sounds like you now have long COVID.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Well, as you should. I actually had a dream. Oh, my God. My dreams are so crazy.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
I had a dream that Bruno came to live with Ben and I. Cause you know, like we secretly want that to happen.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Yeah, yeah, but Ben, I don't know if you know, Ben really feels very strongly about Bruno. He doesn't like his lifestyle. Ben thinks that Bruno's not reaching his full potential living in Florida. He thinks that living here in New York with us and Romeo, Bruno would be much happier. He thinks Bruno's depressed and he thinks it has to do with his lifestyle.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Well, he's just like, if you look at him, he doesn't seem happy all the time.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
And to be honest, I'm so ready for your long COVID era. Like, I just think that's where you're going to shine.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
I just want to let you know, if you ever felt like Bruno wasn't fitting into your lifestyle anymore or one of the kids developed an allergy, whatever, Bruno is welcome in my home. Ben would love to rehabilitate him and make him into a guard dog who goes on four-hour runs.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Ben is really crazy about the dogs. And I do wonder, like, when we have a real human child... It will change, hopefully. Because sometimes the way Ben talks about Romeo, I'm like, Ben... He's a dog.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
And it's the most offensive thing I could say.

Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
I'm sorry. I just checked my phone. Like, somebody else texting me about Jay Shetty. Like, seriously? Somebody I work with. Like, seriously? Kill me.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Yeah, no, I was really obsessed with the product launch. Like, first of all, Skims is, like, always doing crazy things, and everybody's like, that's crazy. And then they, like, slay the house down. Like, their nipple bra was so popular. Yeah. So, and I do feel like I'm not one of these people, like, I have enough breasts to go around, and I'm really not, like, a tishy person.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
So I'm not the target demo for this particular product. But I know that, like, there are actually a lot of women who, like, wear... different undergarments, wear different types of clothing to enhance these parts of their body. And so she's kind of really giving women what they want, but I couldn't help but think about like Kim's ass, like in general, right?
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Like the journey we've been on when they first got famous, she like really now in hindsight had like the most normal body ever. She just had, like, an ass that was, like, a little bigger than, like, someone else of her size, right? Yeah. And the media just became obsessed with it. It was, like, Kim's ass, Kim's ass, Kim's ass.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
And so much so that, like, it kind of got its own personality, its own... And it obviously got bigger with time. Yeah, and she would, like, accentuate it in whatever she wore because, like, that was her thing. Yes, and it was also, like, this running thing. Is it real? Is it real? Is it real? And I do believe, like, when she launched on the scene, she was just, like, a girl who had, like...
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
like a thicker tush and it was totally real. And then it, because she got rewarded for it so much and so much attention, like I do think she ended up enhancing it surgically or whatever. And then the validity of the tushy became like a worldwide, we were talking about it all the time. Like I forget about that time in my life where like everyone was just talking about Kim's tushy.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
So much so that she got an x-ray on- Tyra? The- Was it on Tyra? No, it was on Keeping Up. Oh, I don't know why. And she like showed us all her x-ray and it was like, it's real. And it was supposed to like put the whole thing to bed but the butt was just getting bigger and then Khloe randomly got a butt and we just know they got it from the same place.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Correct. So the fact that we have now all these, like we actually never got, like I know that her butt is not real, right? Like I'm not stupid. But the fact that like it was such a topic of conversation in pop culture for actual years and now she's even profiting off of it, which I love. But without ever like telling us what really like what is it? Like just what is it? Like God, what is it?
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
No. And then like when Chloe got a butt and they also, I think took things a little far.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
No, no, but do you remember Khloe's tushy? She obviously, I think she had like a botched something because there's like a specific season of Kardashians where she wore, I'm remembering this picture, she wore light wash jeans. And her tushy is like, it's actually like a full six feet, like six inches like off her back. Like it's a shelf. Yeah, that's a BBL, right? Yeah.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
To me, that actually wasn't a baby. Actually, I don't even know. So I think that they were like trying different things like surgery wise. And that was, I think, the the turning point for them was that season where Chloe and Kim's was so crazy, too. But like Chloe's also just popping up out of nowhere. Kim's was like a 10 year progression that like day to day you didn't notice.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
But if you looked at a picture from 2010 to 2020, you were like, oh. Yeah. Oh. Chloe's was seriously in six months. Like it was so fucking crazy. Chloe. And so that really put everybody back on the conversation. It is so crazy that like we're sitting here talking about a woman's tissue. Like it's disgusting. But like that is what happened. Yeah.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Like that was seriously the craziest time of my life.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
It brings up the question again. And I know people are like clowning on her. Like this is bad for women. Let me tell you, women are going to love this. This product's going to crush. I don't think this is bad for women. I think this is great. I don't think it is either.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
1000%. And like, if this was an issue that I had with my body, like I would be the first person in line.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
You know, if she could come out with like a FUPA decliner, like I will be the first person to purchase. You know what I mean? Yeah. Like I think products like this are actually great.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Yeah. So she needs to get back in the lab on the, the FUPAlicious decliner and I will be promoting it for free.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
It's giving Orlando Film Festival, first of all. Santa Barbara Film Festival, that's not a thing.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Oh, wow, wow. I wonder how they celebrated such a major milestone.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
But it was just at like a movie theater. It was really crazy to see them like in a rec room.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
It's Mrs. Chalamet. I really can't get over it. They're such an unlikely duo, visually.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
pale brunettes. Yes, if you want to be simple about it. But the way I see it, she's like this whole lot of woman, curves, breasts. Like I'm being really disgusting. Sorry. Like sexualizing the Kardashians today, but like they are these like really bodacious women. Yeah.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
And I think one of the things that people loved about them for so long was that they really, they've never been like pin thin with the exception of like Kendall, who's a supermodel. They've always sort of represented, even though it's not real, a little bit more of a realistic body. Like they've always talked about their weights and stuff.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
So they really are like these like curvy, beautiful, bodacious women. And like Timothy's like seriously 90 pounds soaking wet little boy. Like I, To me, visually, they could not be more different, even though, yes, they're both pale and brunette.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Yeah, no. And the longer they stay together and the more events they go to, like, I think they're actually probably well matched. I think they're a good couple. But I'm such a visual person. I see things very visually. And you still can see it? No, I can. I can. I can. I just, I don't know if I get it.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
No, but I get it for him. Like, who wouldn't want to date her, you know? But he's like a very kind of polarizing.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
For some people. But he's polarizing to others too. Like, the fact that he is this, the biggest movie star heartthrob. He's seriously four feet tall.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
I also, not only did I have a morning, I have an afternoon. Today is the day.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
I'm more of a Pauline Chalamet. Like she's my girl.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Would that make her children Jewish? Yes, it would. They could get bar mitzvahed with Mason and Rain.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Of course, of course. I wasn't skipping over Penelope.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
I wonder what they're going to raise Elvis as, because Mason had a bar mitzvah.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Is that not her kid's name? Rocky. Courtney? Rocky. My bad, my bad. Why did I think his name was Elvis?
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
But like all of his siblings have a bar mitzvah and he doesn't get one?
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Wow, like I've seriously been talking about this big thing that's happening to me. I've been talking about it for a couple.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Let's really quickly talk about The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. It really wasn't worth the hour I spent watching it this morning. Did you watch last week? No, I felt like I could skip it.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
I saw in the previously on, and it looked like seeing my girls, Bose, Erica, Kathy, and Dorit, like,
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
dweeb team obsessed her house is gorgeous I feel like I got the vibes and I could tell what you meant like it was just having hard conversations with good friends yeah it was like real girl talk there was laughing there was crying there was hard truths like that's how friends really are it was it was very pleasant to watch
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
This episode was so boring and I don't, I got really weird vibes from Sutton wanting to repair her relationship with her mother. In the presence of her two friends, one of whom she's literally not friends with, Kyle. Yeah, Garcelle is her ride or die. You can go through something like that while also being on camera. It felt so weird and so disingenuous. And her journey is her journey.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
And I don't feel like it's fair to judge anyone, you know, who goes through like what she went through with her dad. Like that's so hard. But she did put it out there for us to comment on. So my only thought is like I felt like, yeah, did you have like the most amazing mom in the world who was so loving? No. But it was kind of tough to watch her villainize her mother.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
while sort of only remembering the good of her dad and memorializing her dad so positively, While she was telling us he wasn't alcoholic, he had his fair share of issues, and she almost has no resentment towards her dad. Not that she should hate her dad who passed, but she had put all of that on her mom. And then when my dad died, we got fish sticks. Give your mom a fucking break.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
It was actually really tough to watch. And then just talking about, my dad used to sit in this chair. And that's what you do when someone passes, of course. You only remember the good. And I just feel like that almost left her mom to be treated more unfairly
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
My glucose test is today. Okay. Not looking forward to it. I'm not gonna lie. I have not even tried to, people say like you can try to eat X, Y, I've done nothing. Like I've just been my normal self, which I think is best. I want the best, most accurate results. I'm thinking I'm not gonna share my results on Instagram. You'll have to tune into the toast tomorrow to find out.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
by Sutton, and not that she should feel any type of negative way about her dad, because he obviously struggled, but to take any, I think a lot of people when they lose a parent, you feel mad that they left you behind, or you feel abandoned. She put all of that on her mom, who ended up having to pick up the pieces, and was she perfect? No. She was a good mom, okay? She put a roof over their heads.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
I just felt like Sutton was being really unfair.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
I didn't even, every time I picked up, it was like sudden bitching about something else. And I'm like, Oh my God, give your mother a break.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Like obviously she really is indicative of somebody who grew up in a different time.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Yeah, it was just like a tough watch. Yeah. And I don't know, maybe it was because the way she lost her dad, which is so tragic, but it just felt like we were watching a little too much. Like when she went back to the house, I was like, this doesn't need to be filmed. Like, yeah. And the two episodes before she even got out of the car, she's like crying. I felt so bad for her. Like, I don't know.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
It just, it didn't feel like it was the most productive conversation with her mom. It didn't feel like a productive trip. She's not even close with Kyle. Like, I don't know why this whole ordeal had to be filmed.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
And I think that the guy who works for her is really annoying.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
And then the whole conversation about how, like, I guess her mom had really always kind of wanted to be a modern woman who worked, but at the time it wasn't, And that when Sutton, after she got divorced, went on, I guess they were talking about her role as a housewife. Like a real housewife. Because they said, you're like a working woman. Did she work when she was married?
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
I'm going to stand with her mom on that. I didn't realize they were talking about the store. I thought they meant her career as like a celebrity.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Oh, the store. Okay. I didn't get that. I totally forgot because the store is closed.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Yeah, and so I know I have to drink that juice. I know I have to fast for an hour before the test, which is definitely gonna be really hard for me. So when the clock strikes, like I need to have lunch right after the toast.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Yeah. Like, she just, her wanting praise. I'm sorry. Like, the thing is, it feels so weird to comment on someone's relationship with their mom. Like, it's so inappropriate. Who the fuck am I? You put it on TV. So, like. Yeah. Yeah. I thought she was just being really unfair and mean to her mom.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
And then in conjunction with just the story of her dad and everything her dad did was amazing, amazing, amazing. And my mom sucks, she gave us fish sticks. It's called dinner.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Yeah, maybe she should struggle with it privately.
The Toast

Maybe this is my foray into sourdough. Your entree. If medicine takes me that way.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
I've heard such mixed messages about the drink.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
And you have to drink it all in like five minutes.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
I think a lot of the glucose test mania is overhyped on social media.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Because I think that what I'm about, I think I'm going to be disappointed when I get to the test.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Yeah, so you chug. You have to wait an hour. In that hour, I actually have a scan, so I'll be busy.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Because I planned really well. And then I'm going to go back, get your blood taken, yeah.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025

The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
It was, but I also- It took me over two hours to watch it, which is- I have a lot of thoughts. Like nothing happened, but on, and I would never comment on someone's like, you know, interpersonal family relationships, but Sutton like really put it out there for us.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
I have a lot of thoughts. I think she hopes you would comment on it considering- Yeah, but not in the way that she wants me to.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Well, I talked about this a couple of months ago, and it finally came to fruition. My episode of Jay Shetty came out today.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
What is it? Like a young woman's entrepreneurship gala?
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
oh shit, like our plans just got, God forbid me, like one time just want a prerecorded episode so I can get on a plane tomorrow. No.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Which is so exciting. Patreon's blowing up this month.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Okay. Like so many people in my life texting me. I know that his podcast is really big. I didn't realize how many people in my own life tune into it. People who don't even really understand what I do for a living, they're like, yeah, I know Jay Shetty. I'm like, you do? Yeah.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Yeah, so if you have a question for Margo that's really deep and dark, put it in our Facebook group so we can get it turd. For you guys, not for us. We don't even care. We don't even want to know anything. Yeah, no. Yeah. So that's what's new over here, turd-a-loo. That's good. Busy things, busy things.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
I can't believe you're speaking at an event.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
And you'll tell everyone tomorrow what it is?
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Yeah, of course. Let's see. Okay. So it's like a local community event? Oh, wow. I don't know any of this. Oh. Oh, wow. You've been tapped as like a local lifestyle influencer? Yeah.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
I'm also doing something crazy. So I've spent the last like two weeks looking for a dress for this wedding. I couldn't really start before that because my body's changed so much. And I have tried so hard. Like I have ordered, I have gone to stores. I have really tried, but it's also hard. I really don't want to spend a lot of money at this current body shape.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
I don't think I'll be the shape really ever again, even if I'm pregnant, like I'll look different, you know? So I don't want to spend a lot of money. So I've really been struggling and my last box of dresses arrived yesterday and And it didn't work out. Like it's, I'm just kind of going to this wedding without a dress, which is so crazy.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
I forgot to update you on like my, cause you've been really helpful in my dress journey. I had three more dresses.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
And actually the last dress I tried on wasn't bad, but it was far too expensive. Like I couldn't in good conscience, like buy something. But so here's what I did.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
um and it came out this morning and it's just like one of those things i didn't realize you know like one time when i was like it was like i think 2017 i went on squawk alley like the cnbc show at the stock exchange because snapchat went public and they were looking for like a young hot influencer to talk about it enter turdy and when i got off my phone was blowing up with like people from all walks of my life being like oh my god i just saw you and i'm like you guys watch squawk alley
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
And no, that's the thing. I probably, I wouldn't, I wouldn't have even at a different size, like at my regular size. I it's like, I would never spend this amount of money on a dress. Like it's too much.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Oh my God, you're literally making me feel bad. Should I keep the dress?
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
You're doing great things. So what I then ended up doing was ordering three more dresses directly to my hotel, which is so crazy. Like it's, I know how crazy it is.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
It's true. Okay, I texted you the dress. Like it's cute. You look amazing.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Oh, oh, oh. I'm like embarrassed. Okay. There you go.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
The thing is, I didn't like it that much for that price. Do you know what I mean?
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
No, no, it's not uglier, actually. They're better. It's from the same brand, but they were all on sale. So whatever. The thing is, I'm going to a wedding without a dress. I'm going to a party in a limo. I was thinking the same thing. I'm going to a party without a dress. And like I'm leaving for a wedding without a dress for the wedding, which is so crazy.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Well, that's the other thing. I also have two sisters who live locally. Like if worst case scenario, like I'll figure something out.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
And here's what I'll say to my Teresa.com. If you don't get me that FedEx wanted to express business day shipping that I ordered, like, cause I ordered it last night. It still hasn't shipped. Now the wedding's not till Sunday.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
We're good on time. We're good on time. But like, where is the shipping information? Just make haste. Yeah. That's what I'm saying. Teresa, if you're listening, um, Tick tock on the clock. Party don't start till I walk in. You know? Yeah. Yeah.
The Toast
Shakin' Our Heads: Wednesday, February 12th, 2025
Yeah, me too. It's a journey. It's a surprise.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
And then it got me off the couch and I tried to make it at home. Now it didn't come out amazing because there was no recipe available online. So I just had to kind of remember what Megan said.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
They do. They need like something where I could follow the recipe. But I like things that like inspire me to. do something. Practically apply. Yeah. Like to cook, to clean, to homemade, to craft. So like, I like that already. She's getting me up. She's getting me into the kitchen and I'm going to try a spaghetti with fresh tomatoes.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Like that's what I want out of a cooking show is like to see something that I feel inspired to do. So I thought that there were moments that were like, Hey, that's a good tip. Thanks. But the core issue with the show is that there's no like reason for it. Like other shows, I know she's making dinner for Jeffrey. He shall come home and we will have, she's having a dinner party.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Other shows, Martha Stewart, she is teaching us something. She is an educator. This is for the person at home to learn how to make what I make. Now, Megan... No, Megan's is just, it's aesthetic.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
It's like, you need a little bit more of a reason because it's like so silly. When she's having this mock kids party with Mindy Kaling, you're just feeling silly. They're sitting there under a balloon arch in dresses without any children around at a children's party table to show how you can make a children's party. And it's like, there's no...
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
reason to tear like why is does every show should have like a reason for being and yeah they don't really have one it's like you're not teaching us like
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
lot of cooking because megan herself says she's not like an expert chef but are we learning with you that's a good like selena and chef are we learning with you are we going to try a new recipe with you like are you going to show us how you make a meal that works for kids and adults like there's just no angle it's just like here's a bunch of pretty shit that i found on pinterest and that's the other thing it really is like pinterest overload and it's like she the first scene
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
as the beekeeping, which was weird because she is a beekeeper. So if I wanted to watch beekeeping, I could go on National Geographic. But then the second scene, she's making bath salts for her guests. And like, where'd you learn to make bath salts? Why'd you learn to make bath salts? Like she doesn't share any personal anecdotes.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
candles and I know about the wick thing and the temperature and then the popsicle stick so it did feel like she was regurgitating like internet hacks as like pargy aesthetic garden things when this is all like pretty common knowledge yeah but then frame it as that like hey I'm trying to make candles for the first time like let's learn together there's just like no framework for the show and she's doing like a bunch of different things at once or even it could be like so Mindy Kaling comes and I think the best part of that episode is aside from Mindy like she's like Mindy's coming we don't have food like let me make up a frittata and
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
And I know that's an easy thing to make, but I've never made one. And I liked watching her make one. And I was like inspired. So she made this like really beautiful breakfast for Mindy. Mindy is so funny because she doesn't do anything herself and she doesn't even pretend like she does. So she's so impressed. And then they're like sitting and eating and talking a little bit.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
And then they start making these like stupid tea sandwiches. And I'm like, well, that would also be a good premise for a show. Like you cook for someone who's coming and then you guys sit down together and eat and have a conversation almost like archetype.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah. That's actually a good call. That's a good idea. There's no template here and everything is just so random and then some things just really don't work. Like her putting the pretzels from one plastic bag into another, like that was a low moment for sure. Yeah.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
No, like you could tell they're all have a prompt. Like even Mindy being like, you know what I was thinking? Like we are both on TV.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
for seven years like yeah we were and mindy did like as good of a job as you could have like weaving it in but you could tell like she's being like told bring up this bring up that and i also felt like in every episode she's trying to relate so hard to her guests like with mindy they're both toddler moms so like we're going in the next that's relatable like that's a good that's a good angle the next one was a um a chef in la uh a korean chef roy choi
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
And he's like, he, it's his, he's the star because he's making, he literally made 30 things in one episode. But then she's like talking about how she's an LA kid. Yeah. I'm an LA kid. I'm an LA kid. Then the next one is this woman who's friends with her husband's polo partner. So some like fancy lady. Oh, she's Argentinian. And Megan starts speaking Argentinian Spanish.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
She's like, when I lived in Argentina working at the U S embassy. And it's like, you're trying to be all these other people. Who are you?
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Right. Right. It's light and it's not that serious. And what I'm confused about and I don't I didn't hate the show. I'm going to keep watching it. And it's exactly.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah. And then she says like, I really don't like baking. I'm not a baker. But then she knows exactly what to do. And it's like, well, how often do you bake? Can you like share a little more? I feel like also I should relate to her. We have like the things that she- Kids the same age. Two young children like- take pride in making like food at home and homemaking and trying to get it all done.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
But then she does so many things that I'm like, how? Like she made homemade dog biscuits. Like I would never spend my time doing that. I would never make baths, fresh bath salts for when you come and stay. So like, I wish you would. Maybe if I had a tub in my room, she shares that like, um, she didn't always, um,
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
she didn't cook growing up like in that Mindy Kaling combo that everyone's like freaking out about like she ate a lot of fast food growing up she was a latchkey kid tv dinners etc etc so it's like well when did you learn to cook why did you right when did you start appreciating homemade wares how did you learn to cook she talks about how she um used to be scared to make a whole chicken a rose chicken because like she didn't want to be raw like I was scared to make a whole like I yeah I
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
like have a lot in common with her, but I feel like she doesn't actually share things about herself. And that makes it hard to relate. And when you're watching a show like this, like you do want to relate. A human connection. Especially if that's the point of the show. So I feel like that's something, you know.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah. Just like small anecdotes that aren't, I heard about her gardening teacher already like twice. Yeah. I don't want to hear about him. And it's like, did you build the garden in your Montecito house? Or was it there and that inspired you to start gardening? Share, please. Just tell us the story. Or did you start gardening when you were living in London? Right.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Did you learn anything about cooking over there? Anything that you apply from Harry's life and culture in your cooking at home?
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
And it's like this show is inoffensive. Like why is everyone so mad about it? What's so confusing to me is like when she and Harry left the royal family or even when they were in it and then they left and then everything and then the Oprah interview, like you could not criticize Meghan Markle without being called a racist. Like you could have no other reason for not liking her.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
You had to be racist. Like look at Pierce Morgan, lost her job. Sharon Osbourne lost her job for just saying Pierce is my friend. Like you couldn't say one bad thing about her even after the Oprah interview. You couldn't like question anything that she said.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
So, and to me, it's like, That was, of everything that Megan's done, like that's the most shocking behavior to me. Like the leaving the family in such a disrespectful way. The interviews were so, the documentary was so disrespectful. Like this Queenie who is sick and dying and you're going to give her the finger and call her a racist and her whole family racist on your way out the door.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
And that's your children's great. Like that to me was like the best.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
the thing that could be criticized but like you couldn't and now she's just living her life as a mom in Montecito like actually trying to live the life that she said that she wanted like a quiet peaceful life with her husband and her garden and chicken and she's also trying to just make a living work like do her job and we're mad about this like I'm not mad this is so I can have criticism that's about the show because I want it to be better because I like it right because you want to enjoy it but like
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
why is everyone hating on this and why now is it okay to like hate her so passionately and really- For nothing. For nothing when like you couldn't ever say a bad word about her before.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Well, she's on a fucking TV show. And by the way, she didn't cook with the sweater on. She put it on when Mindy came over.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
No, and the fact that like even her pre-show article is in People Magazine and it's not in one of the bigger magazines.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
No, I went to Google last night, Megan Markle spaghetti recipe, because I hope that she had like put together a website. And then it was just articles of people like making fun of her spaghetti for being like stupid. I'm like, it's spaghetti and tomatoes. Like that's not news. And like, that's not offensive.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
It doesn't look good to you. Like it's pasta and fresh vegetables. Okay. Maybe it's a little like bland or simple, but like it's healthy and it's nice.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
But she was such a darling. I guess if this show came out right after they left, everyone would be saying, oh my God, Megan this, Megan that. I don't like think there's like one or two people who like control the media. No, no. But this makes me feel like. It's the Jews, Jackie.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
This makes me feel like there's one person who loved Megan and now that person has turned on Megan and the floodgates have opened. That's how it feels.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Like kissed off the person that was protecting her.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
A switch. And what, when did it happen? Like what, I, I don't know.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
I know, but if you don't want to share and you don't have to always be a person who shares, this isn't the line of work for you. Honestly, she should go back to acting because you don't have to share. Can I ask you a question?
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yes. They do show it and it's just her raspberries because she's like so, I'm so jealous of her garden. Oh my God.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
It's just the house in Montecito that they film at. That also has a garden. I guess just everyone has- Okay, so it's not her real garden. A farm in Montecito.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
with a picture perfect backdrop like I feel sick right also I was gonna this came out yesterday her website as ever dropped and you can now see what's for sale so now also keeping that in mind with the show are there recipes on it no but she this is what she's selling and now it makes the whole show feel so phony because you see she's just pushing these products now I know why she puts flower sprinkles on everything because she's selling them I never had a flower sprinkle before
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
honey of course but it's like it's not from your backyard right where's the honey made raspberry spread crate mix i by the way i would get her raspberry spread well now we just have to for r&d purposes of course ginger tea peppermint tea a hibiscus tea she does spend a lot of time making teas on the show that's boring Yeah, not my favorite because I like, you know, a sleepy time. Lipton.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Crate mix. You know where they sell this all? The Buckingham Palace gift shop.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Well, that's also similar, but two women can do that. Like that's such a, this is such a blossoming industry and category that a million, not a million, but a handful of women can and should do this. And I think there's room for everyone. But the Buckingham Palace gift shop, like this is what the website looks like. I don't know if anyone's put that together.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah, you know who told me about that? Well, not told me. I learned about it from her Instagram.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Claudia, the websites look exactly the same. Claudia, I'm on both websites. Nobody's put this together yet. Only me and Miss Patricia could. It's true.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
If Meghan Markle got a starring role on SVU, I wouldn't watch it.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
So I feel like that's next. I don't know where we're going to go from here because this is an eight episode show. Will there be more? I don't know. How much more does she have to give?
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
They need to like rework the format a little bit and pare it down. Like we don't need all of these distractions. She's doing a million things. She's starting focaccia then going on a hike with her friend. Then we're going to freshen up and shower and then we're going to make pasta. Like it's just too much.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
No. So like the chef who came. Daniel was. Daniel was staying with her. The chef who came was teaching her how to make Korean food and I think we all learned a lot. Then her husband's friend's wife is, I guess, staying with her. She's making her, like, tea bags to take home and dog biscuits.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Okay. I'm obsessed with her handwriting. Do you think it's fake? So... I don't think so.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
But like we really never see like more than one.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah. She also did like the chalkboard and she like starts out and it's like maybe she started but someone, I don't know. I need to see the whole thing. I love her handwriting.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
But she's so the type that would have amazing handwriting.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
People were clowning on her because she put a bag of peanut butter pretzels into another plastic bag to leave for Daniel because he loves peanut butter. But then she wanted to label the pretzels as peanut butter. Nut free, yeah. Just, you know, in case anyone has an allergy, but like she knows that he doesn't. But I think that was like her way of giving a tip, you know?
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
It was her way of giving a tip, which she could have just said.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
And two, if my handwriting looked like that, I'd keep writing no matter what. If I knew they had an allergy or not. We're labeling everything.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah. She should teach a calligraphy episode.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah. No, the handwriting. Parchee. Parchee.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
So that's with love. WLM. It's here. Yeah.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah. No, there was a time to be upset with her. And like this spaghetti cooked in its own water is not it.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
I did that. Love it. It was nice. But I didn't have Swiss chard because I don't have a garden in Montecito. Okay.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Cheese? No, it's a big leaf. Oh, yeah, yeah. I saw her like. It's in the lettuce category.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
I really, I feel like Montecito must be like the best place on earth to live. That's probably why it's so desirable.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah, no, it's really pargy. I've got the Montecito itch.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
And now I kind of understand why Megan has made Montecito her entire personality.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Like America, like wanting to, cause like that is what's inspired her to be this way in this stage of her life. Like just, you know, buying a house with a garden again, can you let us know? And like, yeah, They have chickens, right, too?
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
She didn't talk about her chickens. And now I finally care. Season two. I didn't care during Oprah. Season two. Or maybe it's the back half of the season.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah.

The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah, you should watch that episode. I actually will. Yeah. Okay. Are you ready for our next story? Some other major news in the TV category. Jax Taylor reveals cocaine addiction as he celebrates more than 80 days of sobriety. So Jax Taylor has revealed his addiction to cocaine while celebrating sobriety. He said this is – he went on Bravo's Hot Mic podcast and said, quote, this is tough to say.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
I'm an addict. I have substance issues, primarily with cocaine. Oh, that's hard to say out loud. I've been dealing with this for I think the last on and off since I was 23. I'm 45 now. He said there was times where I would stop doing it and there was times where I'd go heavy on it. I think a lot of people who watch Vanderpump Rules over the years could tell that I was kind of on something. Yeah.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Big TV day for me yesterday. And we recorded Redheads yesterday, which you guys, like the Redheads are the underappreciated podcast of our time. Yesterday's episode is so funny.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah. He insisted showrunners didn't know what he was doing behind closed doors. He said that he was on the train, that he was on that train and he couldn't get off. He made sure to note, quote, I don't necessarily think I have an alcohol problem, but the two go hand in hand. I can't do cocaine without drinking. So I just gave up both. And I'm proud to say I'm 83 days sober right now.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
He says this is the longest he's gone without anything since he was 21. He says it feels really, really good, but I just want to let people know that this is a really, really tough disease and a really tough sickness. I've been doing it for so long, he shared. He said that he's been hiding it or lying about it forever. He went to rehab twice.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
The first time went well, but then he came home and had another outburst. And now after the second time, he is this long sober.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah. I have sympathy for him as well. I agree. This shouldn't be shocking, but it is kind of surprising. I would have thought maybe even in his 40s, he would go out with the boys, maybe do some coke, as people do.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
But not that it was affecting his life. It's the reason for his divorce. It's the reason for his marital issues. It's the reason for... a lot of different things going wrong in his life. I didn't see that. And I thought a lot of the things that he did on both shows, The Valley and Vanderpump Rules, a lot of the crazy things that he did were just because he's a crazy man.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
oh of course but the redheads like have a little kind of feels like you you're the common denominator well i do think i'm underrated in my own time for sure for sure but very shakespearean of you redheads like sometimes we do such a funny episode and that's why even when like the worse the book the better the episode so sometimes we read a great book and that's really fun and sometimes we read a bad book and i feel bad for like people's time that they spent reading this like iffy 600 page book
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Like, and he's also a TV star and he's a professional villain. And I really didn't think it was much deeper than that.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah, and it's too late for her. I feel like it probably took her so long to get to the place of leaving him. And she probably knew about most of this when they were together, but forgave him or gave him chances or lived with it. So to finally get to the other side and be like, I can't live like this, there's really no going back.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah, and it's just a total mentality shift. And now that she's free and they're divorced and she probably has a lot of custody of their child, like... She's happy and it's too little. It's not even too little because it's what he needs to do, but it's just too late for them. Agreed. I don't ship. No, me neither.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
But I wish him the best and I hope that like brighter days are ahead and that he stays the path. Same. Are you ready for our next story? Another reality TV star making news. Gabby Windy is a married woman.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yep. The Bachelorette star secretly marries Robbie Hoffman, Claudia's doppelganger and former Good Guys guest, in a $799 Las Vegas wedding. So Gabby and Robbie are forever. She is now a married woman after wedding her writer and comedian girlfriend in a secret ceremony held in January. So Gabby is 34. Robbie is 35. To me like that just makes us more serious.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
And now they've been married, like, almost two months.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
And her podcast. I've seen her podcast clips like for a while now because she's been doing her podcast for a while. I see her clips once in a while. And I think I sent you one months ago not to like make it about me. And I was like, this girl is so funny. And I'm so glad that she's like getting her flowers. And now I'd be curious to like see clips of her from The Bachelor.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Did she bring this energy to The Bachelor?
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah. It's not just like two crazy kids got married in Vegas and you know, it's not real. I think that this is very real and I'm happy for both of them. Mazel Tov.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah, she is. Um, Part of me wants to watch Traitors, but I don't know if I – I already watched TV all day yesterday. I don't know if I could do it again.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
But the episode makes it all worth it, you guys. We are the funniest gals in town. So that will be up tomorrow. I had a lot of fun recording with the girls. I got to see my little sister, Dear Satch. Oh, that's amazing. Dear Satch.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Oh, my God. Yeah, you told me this. And people were like...
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Are you ready for our next story? Another reality TV star is making news.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
You do. This reality TV star who's making news would love Carraway.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Satch and I were aligned. We were simpatico.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Because Kristen Cavallari is returning to reality TV with a new E series called Honestly Cavallari, the headline tour. So Kristen Cavallari is going back to reality TV, back to E to do another reality show. But it's actually like a show following her podcast tour. So it's like the smart list doc for the swirlies.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
I just have to say, this is so brilliant. It's a good idea. It's such a no-brainer.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah, and I liked that smart list template of following someone on a podcast tour. And she's doing it on E. It's not like it's gonna be, and wasn't theirs all in black and white? That was weird.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
So that was really fun. And then I watched, of course, with Love Megan. WLM. As soon as I had a free moment, I was sat down. So I have a lot of thoughts.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Just an idea. I think her podcast tour is gonna have guests.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
No worries. I think her podcast tour is going to have guests as podcast tours do. Shannon. And like, not just for us, but like very Cavallari stan.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
It does. So Kristen announced on Instagram, I'm so excited because I'm coming back to E and Peacock. I have a new show premiering June 5th and they're going to follow me on my very first Let's Be Honest podcast tour. I have lots of friends coming out. We're going to pull back the curtain on the headlines and talk about what's really going on.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
So I'm excited to be back on TV and I can't wait to see you guys June 5th. I also feel like- On TV? On TV. I feel like Kristen already shares a lot on her podcast and like gives us actual tea. And because this is going to be shared, like this is a big deal. I feel like she's going to give us even more.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yes. Are you adding it to the Toasty Loans? I am adding it. She's also just made for TV. This is her fourth time on a reality show.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Okay, so we're going to go through it. I mean, it's really, people have a lot of thoughts out there. There's like everything. I've got to episode, I'm in the middle of episode four. And that's where like things are sort of, the momentum is slowing down for me, I would say. Oh, yeah. You know, so I took a little break and I watched Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. So we'll recap that at the end.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah. She needs a cooking show with Love Kristen.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
No, but we were just saying, like, what Megan lacks and why she might not be the greatest at this, because you say she looks down, she can't host, she can't talk. Yes. But Kristen is, and don't forget that Kristen has multiple... Award winning cookbooks. Don't forget.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
1,000%. I want to see what hotel she stays at. I want to see, does she fly private?
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah. No, like 10 out of 10. Yeah. Our fifth and final story, some new couple news for anyone who cares. I don't know how many people are going to care about this.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
I can't lie. I care a little. Because it's so weird. And I was once like a big fan of Riverdale and a big fan of hers. And Kylie and Tyga. And Kylie and Tyga. But Tyga doesn't make news on his own, you know?
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah, he does. And this is also great news for him. Sources confirm to TMZ that he is dating.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
It's giving TV. Giving TV recap. It is. Back to our roots.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
He must have a great personality. Yeah, yeah. Like Pete Davidson. Yeah.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah, so I think it's just his great personality. Maybe he's like a really great boyfriend, you know?
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
No, and maybe he just like has a lot of love to give and you feel great when you're around Tyga and you feel like the best version of yourself.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
They broke up a long time ago, but they were dating forever. Travis Mills.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
She's also like dated other people. Her dating history is weird too. And there's one person that she dated that I feel like she wants us to forget about. I'll let you know.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah. I just don't want to, I think I know who it is, but I don't want to. You don't want to speak out of turn. There's like two people that look, that I, that I, um, uh, conflate. And, but I do think it was Aaron Carter, but hold on. Oh my God.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
But like they have my, they have my blessing. They have my blessing. It works. Yeah. I hope that like this is it for them.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
They are. I used to like really feel, um, she's been one of my faves.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
But people change. Like, I mean, just, you know, like Riverdale stopped. Yeah. Like I, yeah.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
You know what I think it was? I think they thought it was the dad, but the dad actually secretly had a brother. So it was like the uncle.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
doesn't everyone but at least like that kind of works because Cheryl and Jason were twins so like twins ran in the family and ran in the family yeah yeah um let's do tv recap Real Housewives of Beverly Hills was probably one of the most pointless episodes of television I've watched like I don't even if it weren't for Kathy accidentally walking on the runway like I would have nothing to say if it weren't for Kathy period like her being in the doctor's office with Kyle being like let's find out who she is I can make one call and find out who took those pictures and who who set it up and
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
and Kyle's clearly trying to like shut down the conversation it was so weird the way that Kyle is reacting to everything is why I have a hard time understanding her and like giving her the same like grace that I would give Dory you know like Dory doesn't need grace because everything she does is right but like you know I could give someone a pass when they're going through a hard time but the fact that Kyle like will not give us any emotion and let me ask you something Kyle and I think people have tried to ask Kyle this question
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
If you had your druthers, do you want to stay married?
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
No, and I think they say it in next week's episode, but it's like, okay, we can talk about Mauricio and the girl in the picture. That's kosher. But we still can't talk about Morgan. And Kyle is still actively hanging out with Morgan. Kyle is picking and choosing what can be said on the show when it's all part of one storyline.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
And even at the doctor's office, Kathy said something, and you see Kyle be like, no. And it's like, look at him. And it's like, the can of worms is open now.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
That's what I thought, too. But I feel like we have to look at the – actually, we should do this. Look at the credit of the picture. Who, like, is it a – Probably TMZ. No, the photography agency. Like, I feel like that's why they know it's paparazzi per se. But it wasn't an agency. It appeared to... But I feel like if anybody called the paparazzi, it would be the girl.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Because I feel like they are more paparazzi literate than we are. Yes. It's a news and picture agency.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
I don't think so. I don't think it happened to be. I don't think Mauricio called paparazzi. I think the girl or her friend was like looking for a moment and called the paparazzi. I know we're supposed to think that Mauricio is like a dirtbag because he's like kissing on some other girl on vacation. But then you need to put it in the context of like his wife is kissing another woman. For a year.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Hello, Turtle Lou. It is a lovely hump day, a Wednesday-ries, a with love Wednesday.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Publicly in a music video, bringing her on the show, like kind of dangling this in front of everyone, like her behavior in terms of moving on. and disrespecting her husband.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
I feel like not enough people are talking about that. Like this is in response to all of that. This isn't the first move.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah, and now seeing where things are, and I feel like he's probably really happy in his new life and with the young girls. Like, I don't think they're getting back together.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Like, it's not like she's asking him to come home.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah, but if she was like, please, Maurizio, like, I love you. We have a family. Like, okay, so we both have been and had our fun, but, like, we can be together and grow a world together. But she's not even saying that.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
That's funny. I don't identify with Jax as a Jax. No, I never, I never realized you guys had the same name. But I know that other people, when we talk about Jax, when you call me Jax, like they're always, like people are always confusing you with Jax Taylor.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Oh, I thought that Kathy, like she's got her. And so I feel like she must be on some pain meds that like had her a little limp.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Because her going to set backstage before the show starts. Do you want to read to MC is like the craziest thing that's ever happened. And it's not like Doreen even knew that Kathy was saying that. I think she was a little loopy from the meds.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
That was really funny. When the lights go down and the show's about to start and it's Kathy wandering out.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah, I guess I wouldn't have done black, but like this is Erica's house.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
home and I just I could feel the energy emanating and when Erica said I know for some people like a home renovation like is not news or anything but like for me it's a complete change in my life like I felt like this is one of my the greatest storylines we've ever gotten from a housewife is Erica's home renovation I love it every minute of it
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
It just goes to show it depends on the person. And like, it's just so real.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah. I'm just like so proud of Erica. I really don't think, I mean, and they all have been through a lot, but what she's been through in the last three years.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
I'm really, really happy for her. Me too. And it's a joy to watch.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Oh, and Jennifer Tilly saved the fashion show as well. She's funny. Yeah, she is.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah. I love that she like says stuff that you would think would come off badly. But then she just says it in such a sweet, endearing way. It's like because she's not worried about what people think of her because she doesn't have to be. No, she's very real. She has like more money than she'll ever need. And it just comes in the mailbox from her.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
ex-husband like you can't cancel her like the checks still come so she just like shares whatever and even if it's not like the most PC thing and it's just like it plays well because it's funny and real agreed I really um I enjoy her a lot yeah
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Now Jackson Claude is so commonplace on the show, but when we started saying it, people thought you were with Jax Taylor.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Who do they live with? And is Ruby Frank in jail?
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Okay, so how is there like a custody battle?
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
You probably were, but just to clear things up, I did not announce yesterday that I have a cocaine addiction.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
And the husband's not in the picture, not married.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Inspired by my namesake. By his bravery. By his bravery, yes. So we will get into all the details later. Yeah, I don't really have much to share. It's just one of those days, you know? Yeah, well, all I have to share is my thoughts on TV. I feel like that guy from Willy Wonka Mike TV who just like sits at home and watches TV all day.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah, but that's like known. It's always, that's what's frustrating is when there's like people who haven't been brought to justice.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
And she just had like really negative experiences from being on a family channel.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah, and I also think like not everyone who shares their family life like has a family channel. Do you know what I mean? Yes, yes. Like I don't follow any family channels.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Right, and it's like that's their whole shtick.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah, it's just something you could jump into, especially when it's someone that you didn't know before this all happened. Like, there's all the history. Right, she started vlogging in like 2000, okay?
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Wednesday? Yeah. Interesting. Yeah. Wow, we got like a full week of content these days.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025

The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
her episode just like highlighted her fabulous personality mindy mindy's and you know i'm actually like aside from sex lives of college girls like i don't watch mindy project i don't watch the office so i actually even though i like love mindy through you because like my sister loves her i don't consume her work that often and i was just that's so crazy to me because you are so mindy coded no i know and everything that was coming out of her mouth joke or not joke just like
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Maybe I will, but you should just watch that episode with Mindy and Megan. Because also she was saying how growing up, because they were talking about like their entree or things that they like to do growing up. And Mindy was like, I like to like look up really fancy recipes and like make them for my parents and play restaurant.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Which is just like so cute. No, no. The addition of those anecdotes from Mindy just like continues to highlight like the lack thereof from Megan. Of what Megan's sharing. Yeah, like I'm just remembering that and I'm like Megan just keeps talking about her gardening teacher. Yeah. In middle school. Like I'm sorry, I took social studies in middle school.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
That's not what kicked off my love of history.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
No, I've binged Magnolia Table. And I binged Molly, the farmer Molly girl. She's on the Food Network. Molly Yeh, I think is her name. I binged him over Yom Kippur. I don't know why. I don't know why I did that. And then I tried to make her meatless meatballs and it was a disaster.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah, since we're talking about TV. We're obsessed with TV. We're already there. Now without further ado-do-do, here are the Fast Five stories.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
That you need. I know, like, all of my different songs, it's just sort of like, I couldn't keep them apart.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
I know, but sometimes it's hard for me to get into, like, because I'm changing the words a little bit, you know, because I'm like, it's the Fast Five stories. You need, it's just hard for me to keep all my melodies apart.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Our first story, the name on everybody's lips. Jackie, our first story. With Love, Megan has premiered yesterday. Eight episodes dropped. We have started the process of watching. As Claudia said, she watched one episode. I watched four episodes. I've been very excited for this show because I have been craving cooking content and I want to see like what Megan's got for us. How the other half lives.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
After all these years of like secret project, secret project, secret project. Yeah.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Well, here's my question, because she abused her children, right? Yes. So why is that like a referendum on other people's family channels of like this woman is abusive and it's not just like, yes, she also put her kids on her channel, but like the crime is the abuse.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
guest room why don't you just at least pretend that this is your house you know well then she would be like she's inauthentic that would be so inauthentic it's really crazy to film a cooking show in your house and I actually think she copied a lot of things that Joanna Gaines does on her show it was giving Joanna in like a good way Joanna Gaines like has done a lot of good things and like sure let's learn from them so once she cooks in a kitchen that's in a house that looks like hers but isn't hers but gives a homey feel and then she shares all the food that she makes with her crew all
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Or says that she's taking it home to her kids. That's what Joanna does. And it, like, it comes off really well. And she's like, I can't eat all of this. Like, everyone, here, come here.
The Toast
With Love Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5th, 2025
Yeah, there's two kitchens. There's two? It's very confusing. I thought the same thing. I'm like, wait, is this a new angle or a new kitchen? Agreed. Two kitchens. My... Thoughts on the showers. There are moments that are like, hey, I'm learning something. Hey, I feel inspired. Even she made that one pot spaghetti in her first episode and it looked pretty easy.

Perhaps you're training for a 5k and everybody's doubting you, but you know within yourself, like you can accomplish this, but maybe that was just me. Well, maybe you're a toaster who managed to stop for a nice coffee but still made it to work on time, or you found a pair of jeans that finally fit. Whatever it is that you define as a win, it calls for a celebration.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
The morning breath. It is giving. I also love having the lower half of my body behind a desk. Like what the lower half of my body looks like these days is of really no interest to me or anyone.

Now, Good Ranchers is sponsoring the show at the perfect time.

And then Good Ranchers makes it so easy because their cuts are fabulous. Their customer service is amazing.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
yeah no definitely dress differently for this environment yes yes every podcast studio podcast studios are more personal than comedy I know more personal than food this particular podcast studio has a lot of natural light which I'm feeling a little nervous about just because I'm not in a state where like I'm loving how I look naturally so I am wearing sunglasses if you're watching on YouTube you're like why is this girl wearing sunglasses I'm just I'm feeling a little subconscious I also like I'm doing a slick back button like who the fuck do I think I am we're a little nervy we're

If you were looking for the celebrities, they were all at SNL 50. Except for Turdy. She was at a wedding that was both Moroccan and Syrian.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Cool, cool, cool. So everyone else was at- It's literally 51, 49. Like that's how it was. He was just like a little bit of Moroccan.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I agree, but not like this. No, not like this. But maybe I just wasn't super socially conscious at SNL 40. I was 20 years old. I probably had better things to do.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
At Radio City. I don't know. And also-
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I feel like while it's super impressive to like sit back and look at like the legacy of this one particular show, I feel like it didn't paint current SNL in the most positive light because it just sort of reminded me of like how many iconic people have come through that door, how much like culture they actually changed and influenced and how many like references and comedy and even how many movies ended up getting made from like things that started on SNL, like Wayne's World.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Like Superstar. Right. Right. Mary Catherine Gallagher. Yes. And like that era of SNL is so over now. It's like a fun show. People like it makes a cultural buzzy moments, but it's so doesn't have the impact that it once did. So while it's cool to like, look back and celebrate, I was like, Oh, we're pulling, you know, Domingo espresso, you know, that sketch. Yeah. Well, we all enjoyed it.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
It's not even remotely as like very, well, it is viral, but like impactful as some of the past sketches that have went on to become like billion dollar franchise movies.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I saw like bits and bobs of- They brought people back to like revitalize iconic sketches that like have lived in the SNL Hall of Fame. They brought famous- people who have co-hosted, like they've, they just sort of like played up on their own history and for three hours. Yeah. There were performances as well. Um, different monologues.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Oh, it's so funny. Like irrelevant.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
They were like, oh, Ryan Reynolds. So many celebrities, Ryan Reynolds is here. And he stood up and he's like, hey everyone. And they're like, Ryan, how are you? And he's like, fine, what have you heard? And I have seen like pretty much 50-50 reception. I thought it was actually, one of my favorite things when a celebrity is going through like a big scandal is to like face it head on, make a joke.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I think that's a really good PR move. I just think if you hate Ryan Reynolds and you think Blake Lively is like a disgusting woman who made up her sexual harassment, then you hated this. And if you feel like they have been if you're like team Blake or you just like, don't care. I think it's, I thought it was a good PR move. Like, cause they've been like hiding and that makes you look guilty.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Nervy mentees. Mentee bee. Honestly, name a phrase I dislike more than mentee bee.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Jackie's like tiptoeing out of the room.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
That is true. She is a particularly bad actress. However, there's literally zero chance in hell. Ryan Reynolds forced Blake to go to this event and didn't tell her about this bit that was gonna be televised referencing this huge scandal that has rocked their world.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
And so a lot of people thought that like Ryan, and so this also does play into a big theory of people who are team Justin being like, Ryan is in charge of this whole thing. He ruined the movie. He rewrote the script. Blake is a victim of Ryan's. And so this sort of only feeds that theory. I think there's literally no chance in fucking hell that she didn't know about it.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Did she say I had a mental breakdown or had a quote empty bee?
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Because the blinds- We have long referenced this one particular blind item about this couple. From Crazy Days and Nights Auntie Lawyer. I never like cared about Ryan Reynolds or Blake Lively. Like they weren't celebrities in my periphery. And the only thing I sort of knew about them was this like one- blind item we had read like 10 years ago. Just stuck with you.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
That Ryan Reynolds was like really controlling that like any script that came into their house was vetted by him and any movie she ended up doing was like he approved and that made sense why he did like, why she does the worst fucking movies ever. And it was just something like I read and just believed and like stuck with me.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
It's the beginning of a new week, beginning of a party week where Jackie and I will. First of all, hey, Jack, how are you?
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
And then this whole thing has caused me to like look at them differently and I'm like shifting my perspectives. But we mustn't- But it's kind of coming back to that. We mustn't forget about that blind item.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Like, I also hate theories like that. Cause it's just like, you're operating under the assumption that like this woman, successful business woman, mother of four has no agency over her own life.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I know. There's a something there. There was also a lot of like interpersonal relationships, different conflicts at SNL 50. Pete Davidson and Kim Kardashian were both there and I actually saw a video of them at the after party, which looked like probably the most amount of famous people to be in a room, like an actually famous people, not like, you know.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
socialites, like really, really famous people all in one room. Kim and Pete.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
But I'm sure you're very wealthy. Museum patrons. Right. This was just such like really, if you weren't there and you're a celebrity right now, like best of luck to you. Like it was really the who's who.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Like no, actually. So many people have hosted and I don't feel like they were all there. But also there were some people like famous castmates who weren't even there. I saw a lot of people like upset that Nassim Pedrad wasn't there. Not everyone was there.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Yeah, maybe. Aubrey Plaza was there, which I think a lot of people found to be really shocking. She just did a very brief, I think she introduced Miley, given that her husband just, she just went through something really tragic like a month or two ago. But yeah, everyone was there. So Kim and Pete, and I saw a video of them like literally walking by one another without acknowledging.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Now maybe they had already said hello. This was just one moment in time. But I just kept thinking about that thing you told me about the episode of Kardashians where she said like the minute she broke up with Pete was when he suggested she stopped working. So I'm like, maybe these two did end like not well.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Agreed. For such a serious condition.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
It was also a big night for power couple, Martin Short and Meryl Streep. Yeah. They were both there separately and together. You'd love to see her showing up supporting her man.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Wow. And it just like delegitimizes in my eyes, like everything, wait, speaking of real housewives of Beverly Hills, I saw, I don't know, you know, I get a lot of like AI generated Bravo news.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Like it really highlighted this thing that was once great and it's still here. And I know there are like people who really like it, but I think overall, like you can't deny that the impact of SNL on like comedy on American culture is nominal compared to what it once was. And that's so cool to see like Chevy Chase there. He's like really like the biggest thing to ever come out. I love Chevy.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
And like, who is the Chevy Chase? Do you know what I mean? Of today? Yeah. Of course. Because I like to think of like the biggest male lead right now on SNL. Of course it's Mikey Day. It's Kenan. But like Kenan doesn't have, like Kenan had a. Kenan's not a movie star. I know. He's an SNL star. He did a sitcom and it didn't like, it didn't do well.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
It's, I just think of SNL's like impact is not what it was.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
It's a thousand percent Mikey Day.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
You should bring back the hand hug.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Jackie commuted to work today. As somebody who works from home, like this is revolutionary. What podcast did you listen to?
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
So I saw, I think it was Kathy Griffin, who's friends with Lisa and Harry Hamlin said that when they were in Amsterdam and you know, we don't want to talk about the husband and everybody's like, well, what was Kim going to say about Harry Hamlin?
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I think it does actually like very quickly.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Yeah, it does get old. Hey truckers. What's good. I think it's at first something like exciting. And then it's just a 20 minute dread fest. I'm living the dream. She's so American.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I can just see you in the Tesla, like talking to your car.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
You have made a somewhat of a big deal.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
And for those who don't know, Jerry is your local sales associate.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Good morning, millennials. And welcome back to the toast. Happy Tuesday. That feels like a Monday because yesterday was a bank holiday that we, of course, observed in the most honorable and respectful of ways. Thank you to all the presidents, whoever, you know, served, did their thing. And it's Tuesday. It feels like a Monday.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Apparently this AI generated news story said that Harry Hamlin, this is from the mouth of Kathy Griffin, that they were, that Kim Richards was going to say something about Harry Hamlin having sex with dogs.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I haven't heard that. I haven't heard that.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Big things coming. Big things coming.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Okay. Not only does she have big things coming, she's embracing transparency. Yeah.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I thought what you were going to say, if you've been following Megan's new career, well, actually revitalized career as an influencer, you wouldn't be surprised to know that like she shared all this information on her Instagram. And my Instagram must know that like I die for these videos because every time she posts, it's the first thing that comes up in my feed.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
And recently I've been getting like strangers in my feed. Have you? Always, like every fourth thing is something from the algorithm. Every first thing, it's like someone's engaged. I'm like, wait, who do I know who got engaged or had a baby? People I've never heard of with 300 likes. Who are you? Literally, who are you?
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
So the first thing I saw this morning was Megan and I was like, oh my God, freaking. And I thought it was just gonna be like another one of her sort of mindless Billie Eilish lunchbox videos. But this one was kind of full of tea, if you will.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
but she was being really open. Not only like her spilling the beans, that American movie or orchard, whatever the company is her company, but also like Netflix invested in it, which I thought was really interesting.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
let's not forget that one of the most successful, influential billionaire status companies was once named Kimono. True. It isn't necessarily, because I remember when that happened to Skims, I'm like, this is the end. Before they even launched, it's such a bad omen. She got so much backlash, cultural appropriation. The mayor of Tokyo. Yeah, right.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
To make, right. It would have invalidated her.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
And so we were like, oh, this company's never gonna take off. And you literally had forgotten about it up until right now. It didn't hinder its success. So it's not an automatic thing.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
It just sort of, you want to launch a business, get started. You could put this in the file of like things Megan does from a business perspective that either never launch or don't make sense. Like really it's, it's so on brand for her to be honest. And I actually like this approach and she references the TIG in her video.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Yeah. By the way, let's talk about that. Cause the TIG is actually a great name. It is. For like a blog. And you, I could see it turning into, if I had like a pan and they're like, what brand is it? And I looked it over as a TIG. Like I'd like that. And it's hard to get recognition. She already has that with like the OG fans.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
So we have a party show today. Actually it's Tuesday, which means we have your toasters, our advice segment. We also have white Lotus recap. So the new season of white Lotus started on Sunday. Jackie and I both watched the first episode last night.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
But now everybody knows like Megan, who was a princess also used to be a blogger. So why? Maybe she doesn't own it. Like I have to. And also it would just be such like a nice homecoming type of thing. Like back to her roots. Yeah.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Mm-hmm. Well, I'm holding space for multiple truths, you know?
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
By the way, if you are like a fan and actually in moments like this, like I often think of Stassi Schroeder, who is like a diehard Meghan Markle fan. It must be really unexciting to be like a big Meghan Markle fan because it's so many announcements and no releases, right? It's kind of like, what do they say? Like edging? Yeah.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
When you like masturbate to the point of ejaculation, but you don't ejaculate. Like there's so much hype. Oh, show, company, documentary, book. And then never comes. Podcast.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
And I didn't enjoy the episode and I wasn't sure if it was because I wasn't sure if it was because like before the episode even started, I was disappointed. Where was the song?
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I think I learned it in like a TV show.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
You know what it is? Reels is a little too filled with real people. Like I'm good.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I know they say social media is a highlight reel. Like it's not real. You know what? I think I prefer it that way. I prefer it that way too. The alternative is just too sad.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Oh, wow. Okay, pop off, queen. Now that our phones are like sitting right next to us, we're gonna get so much edging content. Stop. Because it's picking up edging, edging, edging. I like to edge.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Let me take Jackie's phone. I need you to be- Give me your phone. Meghan Markle positive. Positive, we love Meghan Markle. Meghan is a queen. The royals were wrong for what they did to Meghan. Red 40. Vaccines. We need to both be radicalized. Wait, let me think, let me think. Oh wait, Blake Lively, innocent. Innocent Blake Lively.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Oh, Pop-Tarts. Cereal is good for you. We like sugary cereal. Sugary cereal is good for kids and adults, especially pregnant women. Pregnant women can take Advil.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
That was fun. I hope you enjoy your new life. You too. By the way, let me set you free from the shackles of health and wellness. It's true.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I'm sorry for that. It's also really hard to like, our job is to talk about her. And like, there's a lot to talk about, but there's also nothing to say because we have yet to see a piece of content.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Well, feel. When? Blake Lively. What about it? Like when you're rooting for someone so hard and they like kind of like, it becomes hard and embarrassing.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
They put a little regional flair on it, I thought. Okay, but the last two seasons were in different parts of the world, Italy and America, and they both have the same theme song.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I just want to say, I know a lot of people hate me for my Blake Lively takes, and I've definitely pulled them back. And it's like, oh, well, Claudia knows she's wrong, so she's not. I'm really not afraid to admit when I've been wrong. I was wrong that Travis Kelsey did know Taylor Swift. I was 100% wrong about that. I have not been convinced. And I will keep you guys updated.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
If I ever do get convinced, I will be woman enough to say that I was wrong.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
In this moment, I know you guys don't agree with me. I still stand firmly on where I was before. Like I do not think that this person is a good guy. That's not the question. I do think he did all those things. I do think like Blake Lively. Yeah. She's like a mean diva actress, bitch. I think, I think she was the victim. I'm sorry. I do. Okay.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Of both an online attack and an in-person attack by this, like what, who I think is a freak. Unprompted. Yeah.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
It's been a lot of days since we did a show because this happened a few days ago and I had forgotten about it.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
And up until this point, he is definitely like, people are divided, especially like pages, like a really loyal fan base for her podcast. So people have like her fans have been on her side, but for the most part, like it's been pretty equal. People really still like page. People really still like Craig. Craig hasn't, I don't think received any sort of like backlash or anything.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
We let the chips fall where they may. And I am still in Florida. Now I was supposed to be back after the wedding today, back in studio, back to our beloved frames. Yeah. And of course I'm not. And I know there's like a running joke. Like every time Trudy comes to Florida, she ends up like extending. I really was not planning on it. I really was not planning.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Cause he has kind of been like perceived as the victim. Like he's the one who got broken up with. So this is the first time where he's like kind of on the defense.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
So we'll do a little bit of a TV recap in the fifth and final story. Is that correct?
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Let me just tell you, I spent the weekend at this beautiful, I would say part delicious, definition wedding, which I don't know if I mentioned was my friend Alicia, who's Moroccan.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
This was a quick turnaround from Tamron. Let me say that TV is known to like really sort of lag behind and it's not a live show. So good get. Yeah. I feel like she's like stepping into Bravo stuff a lot.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
No, I think she's on like Fox 5. Fox 5. Fox 5. What was I gonna say about this? I feel like there's not a shortage of like nice girls who wanna date Craig. So I really feel like he should work on himself.
The Toast

I also, I had thought this, and then I saw people on social media saying it when Paige was referencing the two different girls he was texting throughout the course of their relationship. I felt like the first girl she's referencing is Kristin Cavallari. The way they started their relationship, we forgot, but it was a little murky.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
He was talking to two girls at once, and he decided to go with Paige. So I feel like that might've been a thing in their relationship the whole time, and she just always remembered. I feel like that might be one of the girls.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
And actually the groom was Syrian.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
The thing is, it seems like Paige is gonna get the last word because Southern Charm is like in their, what, fifth or sixth episode and Summer House just premiered. So we'll hear at the very end of Southern Charm season, we'll hear what Craig has to say about the relationship. That's a flaw. Him saying that he got the ring, whatever, making Paige look like the villain.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
And then Paige will be able to respond, being like, well, actually you were texting bitches, yes or no.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
So it was very kind of like multicultural. And it was reminding me a lot of my big fat Greek wedding because my friend Alicia, she has this huge family and they're like really Moroccan. Both of her parents are Moroccan and they're so proud. And they really remind me a lot of the family from my big fat Greek wedding. And how like Alicia married someone who wasn't Moroccan, but like in his 23.

But she did marry an Ian Miller because her husband has like a very small strain of Moroccan in his blood. And like the whole weekend, different speeches, they were all just sort of like clinging to his little piece of Moroccan. I didn't know he had like a little bit of Moroccan in himself.

People need to treat coffee like they do alcohol, you know?
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
That's not coffee. That's not coffee. But even when I like crave like a really, even the world's best margarita, which like I love a margarita. Yucky. Give me water.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Yeah. And so the first time I ever tried alcohol, like ever, like hard alcohol, I remember somebody gave it to me in like a water bottle. It looked like water. I'm like, I didn't know what it was going to taste like. And I thought for sure that somebody accidentally gave me like a bottle of gasoline. Like I didn't think, I'm like, there's no way this is what people drink in the movies. Right.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Like, you know, when you meet, like, you know, someone, I've noticed this in the eighth grade. To me, she's always just my friend from the eighth grade. But you see her grown into a woman and a bride. She had a chignon. She looked so womanly. She's a very elegant lady. But she's just Alicia from eighth grade. That's what I'm saying. It was kind of confusing. It was really pargy.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
It's impossible. And it was like, wait, what the fuck? It was shocking. Yeah. Well, our next story is also really shocking.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
You are old, and I just want to say the Jonas Brothers put out a statement on the 20th anniversary, which was a couple of days ago, and I'm reading it. I'm like, oh, my God, they're breaking up again. It was such, like, the way it was written. It's very nerve-wracking to be a Jonas Brothers fan.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I only ever would be interested in having a body language expert on the toast if they could tell us what the hell's going on with the Jonas Brothers.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I just wanna play my music all night long. Remember they played that on Dick and Rock and Clark? Yeah. So randomly. That's my favorite fucking Jonas Brothers song. It's so good. It's Camp Rock.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I just, I find my job really difficult because even like, and maybe people tune in for me to be like such a negative complaining bitch, but like every story I'm like, Megan's like, I hate it.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I would love to be like, this is so great. Jonas Brothers fans are gonna have the best time. But seriously, like this is so lowbrow. There's something particular. I mean, it's giving TanaCon. Remember when Tana Mongeau had like the most fucked up convention for her fans, like people died on the streets. Like it's really something you do at the bitter end.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
And the Jonas Brothers, and this is what I feel like I said about them the last time, they're always too, it's like, they don't know how famous they are. They're always doing really weird things.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
You're touching my shoe? I thought you smelled my feet or something.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
So I remember saying this like maybe a year or two ago when the Jonas Brothers really decided to invest in TikTok. And there's a very fine line between like being an artist on TikTok and then becoming a TikTok artist.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
And I think that like, you know, Meghan Trainor is a great example of somebody who was making TikTok music and then was actually just became a pop star, even though she was one before, but she used TikTok. And I think the Jonas Brothers, like they're investing so much in TikTok, they're doing like collabs with different TikTokers.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
And it was just fab. But I really wasn't expecting. I feel like... I feel like I hit an inflection point in my pregnancy, like at the same time as the wedding, where like things are harder for me as of like a week ago. I really can't stand much. Just like a fun fact about me.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I keep seeing a new one every day, like Joe Jonas popping up on all these random songs. they are doing things where they like really don't know how famous they are. And this is one of them. And while it's nice to like give back to your fans, this to me is not why they're doing it. It's very clearly like, I actually don't know.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
It just doesn't align with what I know the Jonas Brothers to be like this very famous band. Yeah. Marshmello will be there. Correct. Even though like, and that's the other thing about the Jonas Brothers is There are a few people making music as good. I don't know why they're doing so much. They feel like they have to prove something.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
conventions that are still like really, like think of BravoCon, I also think of like RuPaul DragCon, it's huge. But it's because these are like shows. They're worlds. Huge, like cast. It's just three people. It's hard to have a convention for one thing.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
That's more of a festival though.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I wish they called it like Jonas Fest. Something con. Meet your favorite stars from the 80s.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Yeah. Oh no, because the thing is, and me and Ben were talking, it's so funny. I just met Patrick Schwartzinger. I don't even know if I told you this. I was out to dinner and he was sitting with somebody that I knew. So of course, like I'm so obnoxious. I'm like, oh my God, Bo, hey, how are you? And I'm like, oh, who's this? Such a nice guy.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
They are the same, but Patrick greater than. Oh. Just like famous wise. Like Connor never like became as famous as he could have been.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
That's what I've been saying. Yeah.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I think he really did not like being famous as Taylor Swift's boyfriend and reverted back after that. He never aspired greater after being that.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
No, I saw him in the elevator at Zero Bond. He's literally not. He's not at West Point. The last time I saw him, he was at Zero Bond wearing a leather jacket.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
What happened next? Such a pargy man. And I think he's engaged like a really pargy model.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Really just pargyliciousness. And so his, I don't know him as an actor, but after watching the episode, I was like, wow, he's an amazing actor because he's fucking insufferable. And I just met him in person, really very like Hamish, nice guy. But, the article is like giving his character.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Okay, actually- I thanked Ben like after the wedding because there were so many wedding festivities. And once we got to every place, I'm like, Ben, I will go say hi to the bride. Go find a seat. The idea of being without a seat and someone like, and so many of the girls that were pregnant and they're like more visibly pregnant than me.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Oh, also I saw Marina Shriver on the street the other day.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
No, literally, I was walking on Lexington Avenue. She was just like walking the other way, just giving business woman like wearing trousers.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
She was like outside a big business building.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
They have so many different like corners of fame within that particular family.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
That he didn't know it was White Lotus? I think that that might be how they have a lot of people audition for White Lotus, because it is this larger than life, and people are so lame. And the best part of it is how the actors take these random characters and really make them their own. I feel like a lot of it is the actors doing that.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
So I can actually see that being like the challenge kind of when you do a job interview and there's like a riddle they give you to solve like in finance.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
So when you have like a really round bump, like people get up for you, right? I wear a lot of flowy clothes. My bump isn't like super bulbous. And so I'm not the type of gal you just get up for. So I find myself like rubbing my tummy.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Yeah, the first episode of White Lotus was actually hard for me. One, because I didn't think it was so good. But that is White Lotus. It's real character development. You have to put in the time. But mostly because I spent the entire episode on IMDb. Like, am I the only one?
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
First of all, I could not fucking figure out who of the three girl best friends, like the loser who nobody liked, who she is. Do you know who she is? Who? The Gilded Age. She's the rich new family mom. Oh my God.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
She is. And I can't say her name because she has such an unfortunate last name. Do you know what it is? I'm not saying it.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Birth of Russell, yeah, yeah, yeah. So Jackie, it was bothering me so much. Then I could not figure out who Parker Posey's husband was. Well, Parker Posey, Josie and the Pussycats. Please, I knew that almost immediately.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I knew Josie was gonna be there without the Pussycats and I was really excited. But you know who her husband is? Who? You probably don't know. Lucius Malfoy, Draco Malfoy's dad. I just watched Harry Potter.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Then- The girl who has the boyfriend, the girl with the teeth. Yeah, who's that? She is like a classic. She was in Game of Thrones. I think she was like one of the hookers.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
It was just so distracting. I was like, I need to spend. And then I also wanted to know what hotel they filmed at. Cause I find that really interesting. It's the four seasons in Thailand. And you know, that's going to become like the next big hot thing. Like that Italy hotel, like good luck ever. Every hotel that's ever been featured.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Yeah. Oh, he's a little bro. That's like kind of like all he gets cast as. Classic little brother.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025

The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Jackie, no, no. No? That's Bridget Moynihan. Oh. And I want to say, you're not the only person who gets Bridget and Michelle. And they don't even have the same last name, Monaghan and Moynihan. Are you sure? Positive. Okay, so who's Michelle Monaghan? Classic actress. She reminds me of like an Amanda Peet, you know?
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Oh, that's so funny that you thought it was Tom Brady's ex-wife. No. The one thing, because I watched with Ben and Ben had not seen season one or two. And I said, it's fine. It's just one of these shows that you can pick up. There is like a running theme that I don't think you know about. With the- Greg, orange shirt guy.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
They meet at the hotel. Oh yeah, they have- He's like fake locked out of his room. He's giving like con man. We can't really figure out. But you know, she's this lonely old woman. And then he like sees this wealthy woman and he immediately like, you know, drops everything to be there for her. And I think he was probably planning- something with her.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Then season two, which you missed, they show up as a couple. So they're like, you know, together still after meeting in Hawaii. And he's very shady the whole season. He's like taking weird phone calls. Then he has to leave early. And then she's like hanging out with these gays who are trying to murder her. And they do, right? Yes, but she's in their house.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
And she sees a picture of these gays and her man, Greg. But he left. So she's like, oh my God, I'm being set up. Like a lot of different things. These gays are trying to murder me. So he leaves the trip early. And then we find out last night he's been living in Thailand for the last year with this lady. So he is nefarious, but I do feel like, and I missed a lot of that.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I didn't even realize that- So he's involved in her murder. So he's just weird and shady. And that's like really all we know. And I kind of missed that. It wasn't until I saw like a TikTok recap. He like, did you catch this white Lotus moment? I'm like, no. Yeah. I was like, Greg. Yeah. I seriously like, oh, got an orange shirt. Cool. Yeah. Cool. The episode was boring, but.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025

The enraging asshole. Of course.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I'm so glad you said that. I actually agree. I am a sitter. Like, and I'm also really special in the sense that I can find a chair anywhere. Like yesterday we were waiting for our car at valet at the hotel and I literally sat on a luggage cart. Anything can be a chair if you really, really try hard enough.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Because she said my son is coming.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
she's the common denominator yeah she's exactly her and Jennifer Coolidge but then Jennifer Coolidge is no longer with us the last thing I wanted to say was this is the first time that it's not like a traditional hotel it's like this wellness program it was giving nine perfect strangers I didn't finish it but it was like that annoying like I didn't finish nine perfect strangers either but it was um
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
And I kind of, my favorite thing about White Lotus is like how classic hotel it is. And so much of this with like taking your phones away and like a diet program. That's not really like what we've come to expect.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
That is so on brand for you. Being a victim of your own choices, like slay. I need to start using that. It's so true.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025

As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
the toast podcast.com and there's a submission box both of those are totally anonymous thank you to everyone who wrote in so first up we have a little bit of a breastfeeding issue hey swirlies i'm a nursing mom i'm in the thick of postpartum a good friend of mine who's also a mom and she's nursing came over to visit me this week and we talked about how trying to get a shower in in a day can be really challenging with a newborn my baby was napping so my friend just told me to go take a quick shower i've known her my whole life i know she's safe so i decided to go ahead
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
When I was in the shower, I heard my baby cry and I got out. When I came into the room, my friend was nursing my baby. I confronted her and she said she was trying to help and comfort the child. She said I was being dramatic and that she didn't want to disrupt my shower. I'm deeply disturbed by this and I feel like it was a huge violation and honestly creepy.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I honestly feel like our friendship is over. Is that weird? Is it not weird? Am I being dramatic?
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Well, you threw a beautiful birthday party for your son yesterday and I was really thrilled to be able to attend. I wasn't going to.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Yeah, but that breast milk has been tested like thoroughly.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
You're aligned. It's really crazy. Like it's really crazy. Now I think what you're saying is true. Like there, I don't think they're going to be implications like, right. Like negative health wise on the baby, but it's really crazy to nurse someone else's baby whom you're not related to. And you didn't ask.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Yeah, but let's also, let's put our... Our cap's on. What is this woman going through? She's also postpartum because she's nursing. Maybe she- Is out of her mind. Heard the baby cry and it woke something in her instinctually. I don't know. I don't know. But the fact that she won't hear you out, like you told her that this upset you and she says you're being crazy, that's a bad sign.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Because it's so crazy to me. Your children are my life and every time they fart, we come down and we celebrate.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
She should be receptive to your feedback.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
You know, sorry, sticking your titty in someone else's baby.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
And I just want to be clear. You are not being dramatic. You are not wrong for being upset. Your friend who probably had good intentions, like not being receptive to you saying this upset me. Like that's probably like the most egregious part of this whole thing. Cause she was trying to help. I don't think she was trying to be malicious. And she made a call and it was the wrong call.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
But so if you said like, I don't like that. And that upset me. And she's like, well, you're wrong. That's where she's a bad friend.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
It's worth salvaging, you're saying.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Is the friendship worth salvaging? Yeah. This next one is so crazy and I wanted to tell you about it before we started recording so we could like gossip and giggle about it. But I think it's better to get your genuine reaction. My husband informed me this week that his best friend, Johnny, has been running a snark page for one of the biggest influencers of the moment.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Johnny screenshots every single thing this influencer posts on Instagram, Twitter, TikTok, et cetera, and picks apart the girl's body, the girl's personality, life, everything. My husband told me that he refers to this as his second full-time job. He has stopped conversations at their boys' night multiple times to update the snark page. He responds to comments.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I believe you guys have had stories about this in the past, but I don't know if you have, so please help me out. Johnny has been seriously dating a girl for a few years now and she's become one of my best friends.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
My husband says that Johnny's girlfriend has no idea about this and my husband and his other friends have even told Johnny that he needs to be done with the snark page because it's really consuming him. Johnny's response was that he, quote, has created a community that he cannot abandon.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Johnny has even told my husband that he will tell his girlfriend he's running errands, but really he just sits in his car needing to update the Reddit page. I feel like she needs to know about this. I mean, I would like to know if my husband spent 75% of his day picking apart another woman online, but is it my place? I do not want to ruin my husband and Johnny's friendship at this point.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
My husband can barely be around him due to Johnny being distracted by the Reddit page. If this was your best friend's boyfriend, what would you do? Is there a way I could drop Easter eggs that lead her to this without telling her explicitly, please help.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Yeah, this is so crazy. Like when I first read it, I assumed it was just like a man influencer. I don't know why. So the fact that it's a man starting a snark page about anyone is so crazy. Like true sign of mental illness. But about a girl? that's like freaky, like serious, like leads to violence. This is really crazy behavior.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
And if my friends knew that my husband was doing something like this, that not only is like, you have a job, you have a family, like you have time commitments and you're spending half the day in your car on Reddit, like rotting, that's unacceptable. But also the implications on your mental health, like actually scare me. I would not wanna be living in a house with somebody that does that.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
And it doesn't need to get back to you, by the way.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
You did a really nice job. Like them kids, they were just having the time of their life on their rocket ship.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Did you see that, I forget which one, it was like New York Magazine or New Yorker, did a huge article on snark pages and they interviewed anonymously like 10 or 20 girls who do influencer snark. And they just talked about how it's like, One of the best things that ever happened to them. None of their friends or family know about it. It's just like really good for their health.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I did not see it. I will read it. Yeah. So this felt very appropriate because I was just reading. I was actually watching a TikTok recapping it because I wasn't reading the article. But it's really crazy behavior.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Especially, I mean, from anyone, but especially a man. I know a lot of people who lurk on pages like that and they find it enjoyable, very schadenfreude-y. So there's different levels, like lurking, participating. Moderating? That's crazy. All right, our third and final. Hey, Jackson, Claude. How you doing? I came out as a lesbian about five years ago.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I recently and publicly started posting on my Instagram about my new relationship with a woman. Before coming out, I did date men and I had one year long relationship with a man, my ex-boyfriend. And he has a podcast that I do not listen to. It's very, you know, for the guys. It's just him and his two buddies mostly talking about sports.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Like the rental company was breaking down the bouncy house and the kids were like, nope, we're still here.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
They had a recent episode titled and discussed how my how my ex turned me gay. I only found out because a mutual girl we have in common told me to listen to. So shout out to her. They never mentioned my name, but if you know us, it's extremely obvious that they're talking about me. If it was just a joke in passing, I wouldn't be bothered- He's gay too now? No, no, no.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Yeah, I guess like they just are talking about her on the podcast.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
It's like my ex turned me gay because she's gay. Oh, okay. Sorry. So she said, if it was just a joke in passing, I wouldn't be as bothered. As I realized my coming out probably did shake him up quite a bit. We broke up a year and a half before I came out, by the way.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
The podcast, he goes into detail about our sex life, things I did that should have been rainbow flags, which is like basically playing college sports and not wearing makeup. My girlfriend says I should just let it go that he's a loser.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
They were so, so cute. It was a great party. You throw a great kid's party.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
That's funny you use that term. I cannot help but feel hurt. Our breakup wasn't good, but no one cheated or did anything nefarious. We have not spoken directly since the breakup, but we occasionally bump into each other at weddings and cordially say, hey, how are you? Should I text him and say, what the fuck? Take the podcast down or just let it go? Sincerely, your lesbian listener.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
And by the way, you should find solace in knowing he most likely doesn't.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
It's hard to get a podcast to get listened to these days.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
On podcasts, yeah. It's like the culture. The thing is, in order for you to be happy, you have to let this go. Like living in the past and judging other things, it's not good for you to not let it go. So I wouldn't say anything. I don't need to like reinvigorate the conversations with this guy. But it does feel like- Taylor Strucker's ex-husband wrote into us.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Cause that's literally her favorite thing to talk about.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
No, no, I'm saying the listener is Taylor Strucker.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
No, I wouldn't get in the mud with these actual losers. Like, why don't you go be happy? Like, it sounds like you- Yeah, no, he did his episode. You're in a beautiful relationship.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Yeah, and that's like, I also feel like the hard thing. It's like, obviously I'm not gay, so I don't know. But like when you come out, it's like, so your journey, right? Like it's really all about you. But there are other people, especially if you've been romantically involved with them, who are a part of it in some small way.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
And while, you know, it might not be the way that you want it, like they do have every right to like, you know, say what that was like for them, even though it's not about them. And it's like any breakup or any relationship.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Don't give, like, the one thing his podcast- He shouldn't have even listened to it. The one thing his podcast- Just like everyone else. Probably doesn't garner his attention, and so you don't want to give that to him.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
That's our show, you guys. Hope you enjoyed this Pardjilicious episode. We're back tomorrow with lots of fun things in store, so don't forget to- Trips to the Cape, for sure, tomorrow.

I also feel like it's definitely a fine line between like throwing a party that's like fun and then extravagant. Of course, $60,000. Of course, you don't want to be Taylor Armstrong. Correct. It comes to mind. And I feel like you do it really perfectly where it's definitely like extravagant, but it's all for the kids.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
There's like a coffee bar for the adults and it's like a super nice party, but it's like nice because there's so many fucking activities for the kids. You know, there's not like gift bags with Chanel perfume. Right. You really do it well. It's a fine line.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Like it wasn't like it was just like thematic. And Margo is like, what's space coffee? It's getting like chicken of the sea. I'm like, it's just coffee at a space birthday party.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
It's just like, it's just a theme. That's like really embarrassing for Satch. She's so funny. No, it was so nice to all be together. Like so randomly on this one afternoon.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
The thing is, I really wasn't expecting the. physical implications of a five day Moroccan wedding to hit me so hard. You know, as a pregnant person, the idea of waking up after the wedding and going on a plane, it was just kind of unfathomable. And I'm like, what am I going home for? You know, besides for Romeo, I don't really have much waiting for me back in New York.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Oh yeah, guys, what did you think? Friday's episode, we had a special new studio. We were really just kind of banging out content clips. What did you think? And tomorrow we'll find out what you thought. Of this one.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
No, me neither. And at what time of day did your husband wish you a happy game tunes?
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
They picked up the remaining roses from the floor of the flower shop.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
You have a bunch of like important events in your life, like all in the same week.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Valentine's day, Harry's birthday, your wedding anniversary. Do you like that?
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Mother's day is like, I think my first mother's day, God willing, God willing, will be when my kid is one years old, like, or like 11 months, whatever it is. I think I just miss it. Yeah. And then I have to like wait a whole ass year to be appreciated. Oh, but you'll be having Father's Day probably. The next month. That ain't right.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Not to sound like Matt of Matt and Abby, but I do feel like we should skip Father's Day 2024. It's only right.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Like a month after, God willing, God willing, God willing, like I go through the trauma of labor.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
He probably will be. Like, I should get him a gift, okay? I totally will. Also, speaking of Matt and Abby, have you heard about their latest scandal?
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
So I figured I would spend a couple of days here at the beach extended with Ben. We're staying at a hotel. We're not staying at Jackie's. So it's still very much like vacation energy, but we've met in the middle. We're also testing out all the different podcast studios Southern Florida has to offer today.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
So they released a podcast episode. And I just want to say.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
They have like a lot going on, but we don't talk enough about how high quality their content is. Like even his like cringe music videos. I don't know what sort of equipment he's using. If they have like a director of cinematography that works for them, everything they put out.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Everything they put out is so pargy. And so we put up this clip.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
They live in Phoenix. So like, I don't know if we'd be able to work with this person remotely.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
I just think you have to be crazy. So he even put up this podcast clip and I know that it wasn't a point of the podcast clip, but I was thinking like how high quality and well-made this clip was. It was kind of felt like there was a camera on the ceiling and he's laying on a mattress on the floor in his closet. And he opens up with everybody that he has been sleeping in the closet.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
And that's not a metaphor, I'm sorry, it sounded like it was. He brought them, the crazy part is that, so him and Abby aren't sleeping in the same bed, which by the way is like, whatever. But instead of sleeping in the guest room, he took the mattress from the guest room and put it in the closet. Because?
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
The clip was very much like a teaser for the podcast episode, which I did not listen to in full. And every person like I talked to about this in comment section, I read, nobody actually listened. Nobody knows why. They're just like, why are you sharing this? And why didn't you just sleep in the guest room?
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
There's like a mouse in the guest room.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
You are such a Matt. I know. And that's why we're two successful podcasting teams. You can either be a Matt or an Abby. You're totally an Abby. And I think this is the lore on the internet. It's like Abby does so much. She's like a really, really invested mom and businesswoman. And she's like a fitness.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
By the way, So many options. You'd love to see the business of podcasting booming. Business is booming. I like to think that's our influence, but we never know.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
She's one of those people where it's like, how does she have enough time in the day to be doing all of this? And then it just seems like Matt's in the closet working on his music. Yeah. Which is so me.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
And I can't stress enough how he's physically in a closet. It's not like a gay thing. It sounds like he's in the closet. No, no, he's literally in the closet.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
As in a physical space. I understand. Not a place. It just sounds like I'm being like, like I'm calling him gay.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Right, the closet is also a physical place in addition to a figurative one. A mental place. A mental place as well.
The Toast
As Ever, With Love, Orchard: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025

Dear reader, the Fast Five stories that you need to know are brought to you by Skims, the pargiest of parges when it comes to everything feminine, everything undergarment, everything bra, everything undies. So Skims, bras and underwear are really the best intimates that we've ever owned. My top drawer is really slowly becoming all Skims.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
I'm really particular about my intimates, especially in this phase of my life where my needs are just very different. And they're kind of changing every month. Right now I'm in like... the era where I need bras that do not have underwire, that do not even have clasps that go over your head, but that really gives support. And the bralettes from Skims are fabulous. I have so many.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
I actually can't have enough. The Fits Everybody Racerback bralette and the Scoopneck bralette are my favorites. Really obsessed is an understatement. So... Also, when it comes to underwear, I just have like, not to be gross, I'm kind of in this era where like my underwear is becoming disposable. I'm like growing out of it. And there's just like a lot going on.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
And Skims underwear really makes a difference. I've never really invested heavily in underwear before. I just kind of wore whatever. But now I'm like a real woman. And I need, I just need more for my underwear. And Skims is the best. And you can shop Skims. They're best intimates, including that Fits Everybody collection, which is the bralettes that I love.

The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Yeah. So in sort of in my nesting journey, but also I was just being like, really, really, I've been craving a chocolate chip muffin for the last couple of days and I bought all the ingredients. So Jackie was like, you should vlog it. And I knew that if I vlogged it, I would have to make the muffins right. So it was almost like an impetus for me to get the muffins correct. It was so funny.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
And I guess if you were really paying attention, there was like a little bit of drama. Yeah. Because their podcast page had put out like a Congrats Eagles thing.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
No, I think his reasons are valid. The reason I personally as a human being, like my experience thinking it was weird is because like literally Travis is the co-host and the star of the show and he lost the Super Bowl. The other star slash co-host didn't even play.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
No, I get it. I get it. And let me just say, Jason's like a bigger man than me, obviously in a physical sense, but also because it's really nice that he's so happy for the Eagles. But like, I would be annoyed like the year I leave, we finally win.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
I cooked them for me and Ben. The vlog is up on Patreon now. I don't want to spoil how the muffins turned out. So you'll just have to tune in to find out. But all that to say, I had one for breakfast this morning.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
So, first of all, it was giving the vibes like Travis is retiring. No?
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Can I say something? Like, safe space.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Even though I'm so not in the mood for like anybody to backlash me, but whatever.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Right. But I have to speak my truth. And that's kind of the line that I'm constantly walking. That is peaceful.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
So during the week leading up to the Super Bowl when there were all those press conferences and we were making fun of all the questions that he was being asked, a lot of the questions that were normal questions were about his family. What are they gonna wear? What is your mom gonna do? Is she gonna wear the Eagles split jersey? And Travis was like, you guys, no, I'm the only one playing.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
My family's rooting for me. And I thought the questions were really extreme and weird and I was kind of feeling justice for Travis.

The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
now and I understand like Kylie Kelsey is like so loyal to Philadelphia like she'll never wear another color ever like I get it that's your fucking family out on the field like maybe I can't relate because I don't feel that way about any particular sports team but like we're I just want to say we're bordering on disrespectful like you can have respect for your team Jason and respect from your hometown but like your family is like out here trying to accomplish something great and the fact that like it's even a question like people are doubting who they're rooting for like
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
I don't know. I just, I know this is going to sound really crazy. I feel like they could have been a little bit more supportive.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
And Donna, by the way, wore all red. And the question when he, when, when he was asked if his mom's going to wear the same split Jersey Eagles chiefs, he was like, why?
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
But I just feel like there was like a lot of doubt in people's minds, especially for like Jason and Kylie and just like the family in general. Like, what are they going to do? They love the Eagles. It's like, they love the Eagles when Jason was playing there, but he's not.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Yeah. Yeah. And I'm like kind of loving this new show. The Barefoot Contourney.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Yeah. It kind of sounds like Spanish. Like I'm Barefoot Contourney. Right.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
No, I just, I'm trying to put myself in Travis's spot and like, I'm mad.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Yeah. I didn't get enough support. Yeah. Like I understand that we'll never understand. And I do, I get what he's saying, but I just feel like the whole time while we, before we knew who won, like there's just been this like underlying weirdness about like who they're going to root for when at the end of the day, like, yeah, we could talk about it, but you're obviously rooting for your family.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
I didn't feel like they led with that enough. This is a hot take for the day.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Wait, I think I should record Toast... Theme song. Theme song today because that was pretty parge. Dial up Curtis, the producer. Get him on the drum. Because if you play like you ain't worthy, you can call me Mrs. Taylor Purdy. The only thing is that the theme song, it's actually a little out of my range. It was pretty high key. High pitch, excuse me.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
So dirty. During the Super Bowl, I was actually just humming that song. And Ben was like, is that a real song? And I was like, yeah. And you played a prank, of course.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
I'm the Barefoot Contourney. It was honestly like, I thought it was maybe going to be like a one-off vlog, but then Jackie came up with this fabulous series and it's giving quarterly installment.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
I played a prank. No, I didn't even play for him. I was just like... Because I think he was really believing me because I kept coming up with new lyrics. Right, right. And I stopped at the Purdy one because that he would know it was a joke. I was like, I'm so glad my Travi made it to the big game. He was like, is that a real song? I'm like, what do you mean? Yeah.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
One step closer to Kelsey being my last name. He was like, no way. And then I kept coming up. If you play like you ain't worthy. He was like, wow. And so I let it sit for a couple of minutes. And then I told him it was a joke.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Because I don't want him walking out into the world like an idiot, you know? But you should have. I can have my fun, but I can't take it too far.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
I recorded, I forgot to share on Friday after the toast. I took Jackie's recording session because she was sick. So I laid down my vocals first, which our producer said was probably better. And I did the first take and he was like, well, we've got it. We'll just do a couple of more for safety. But like you kind of crushed it, Turd. That's what he said. Did he say, Claudia, that's beautiful?
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Pretty much, yeah. So we now have a version of just my vocals. We're going to wait. Obviously, we're going to overlay Jackie's, but I'll hold that version very near and dear to my heart.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
This is amazing. Like this is to be on the cover of Vogue is actually such a crazy thing. You know, when you think of all the famous people in the world who haven't been on it, it's like a real special tier. It couldn't be happening at a better time for her. She just snatched up a couple of Grammys.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
People are loving it. They're saying I'm the most amazing chef. I'm literally made for the Food Network. I think BSC should watch his fucking back.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
she looked absolutely gorgeous and I feel like Vogue is always trying to like do something like edgy and whatever but they really stuck with her aesthetic very on brand very Marilyn Monroe feathery feminine it was beautiful I was shocked I wasn't expecting this I I would have thought that Vogue thought they were like it was too soon for Sabrina you know they're never on the cutting edge they're always a little late to the trends yeah I was so happy for her like
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
What did she say? She said that when she- Do you have a Google alert for skin by Sabrina Carpenter?
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
I want to say something about the whole song and I agree with you. Like skin is a good song. It's not, it didn't shake the world up, but it's a good song. Lyrically melodically. But I, I do think though, and I don't, I'm not, I don't have any regrets about how everything shook out for both of the girls. Like they're really both killing it.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
but I do wonder like how this whole saga would have shaken out. If the song that Sabrina released in response to all the drama wasn't skin, it was all because I liked a boy, which is another song of hers that directly addresses the drama, but it's much more popular than skin. Um,
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
And it was one of the couple of songs from that previous album that launched her into the short and sweet era that people really liked. It's a really good song and it's very directly addressing. I got death threats, death threats filling up semi trucks. Tell me who I am because I don't have a choice. All because I like to boy. And all of this for what?
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
when everything went down, we'd already broken up. Like so good, so direct. And like, I think it might've, I'm not mad about having anything shake out. She just won Grammys. Like maybe she would have released that song and then gone nowhere. But I do wonder, like, I would love to see an alternate universe. Like what would have happened if she did that? And the song wasn't written yet, but.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Now, I have to be honest. I gave one to our dog walker because I had so many. So let's say I had 11.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
If she had it in the arsenal and just chose skin. Yeah.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Yeah, I was getting like, oh, you're jealous of me? You should be, I'm sucking his dick.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
That's actually a really good point. I didn't realize. But maybe the world's whatever. That's so you. By the way, like the reason why you love skin is because like the message was very like not victim-y and not like steamrolled. Just like, yeah, I stole your man. What are you going to do about it? And I'm loving every minute.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
And now knowing from that other song, when everything went down, we'd already broken up. So she wasn't even with this guy. So she didn't even like feel the need to defend him. She still wanted to lead with like, yeah, jealous.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
No, no, no, no. They're chocolate, Jackie. I had 11 muffins, okay? As of this morning... There were three left. And Ben, we tried to do the math last night. It was like hard because we were like picking at them. Ben ate about in one day, seven muffins. And this is also a person who actually just started Manjaro the week before. So it's kind of.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
But everything worked out in the way that it was meant to.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
But until Espresso, like Sabrina had been like, she had taken like a big L on the situation. Nonsense. Yes, nonsense. But- Up until that, there was like a long period of time where Olivia then went on to like worldwide success. And Sabrina was left in the dust. Doing like small shows. And she was able to really climb her way out of that, which makes her whole journey even more impressive.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
And I think that's why we love her so much. We love a phoenix who rises from the ashes. But for a brief period in time when we didn't know it was going to go that way, like it was kind of sad.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
And I'm sorry, I will never stop talking about these two. It's annoying to bring up Olivia every time we talk about Sabrina. I'm sorry, I can't. Although I do want to say, I think this massive success has healed Sabrina. Because we always say, if that was me, I'm never forgiving. Sabrina doesn't bring it up. She doesn't talk about it. And they were seen hugging at the Grammys.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
I actually think getting all this success and recognition made the whole situation kind of worth it.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
I stay, I'm, I'm still at the restaurant. Like desk collecting on her pinned up hair. I would, her hair is always pinned up. Right. That's about her. I would, You know how they always say, like, you know, if you could be, like, I would love to have been a fly on the wall in the Solange elevator, right? I would love to have an off-the-record, like, truly open and honest conversation.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
I would never tell anybody what she said, just, like, for my own personal curiosity, with Sabrina Carpenter about that whole saga.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Oh. Oh. Yeah. Oh, no. That's not even, like, top five. Actually, it might be top five. Yeah. But who's number one? But I don't know. Do I only get to cover one subject or like their entire career? Like Taylor.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Yeah. Okay. I don't even know what I would want to ask Taylor. I would definitely want to ask her about like the Karlie Kloss of it all. I would definitely want to ask her. She actually has, like, a lot of mysterious corners of her life.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Because she's not, like, the type of celebrity who shares.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Hayley. I want to know what happened with Hayley. Hayley. Also Zendaya. Like, we all forget because Zendaya went on to do, like, massive things. But she was a member of that girl squad for a brief moment.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
What number? Oh, yeah. Sorry. Number three.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
In bigger news, Turdi Asher finally understands why people find him attractive. For the first time, I'm like, oh, that's a good looking man.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Watch now, he can't get any girls. He looks like he's put on a little bit of weight too.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
It was kind of a test of the efficacy of Manjaro in which it failed.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
I think the fact that he did a topless photo shoot to show us his progress and all the change that he's made, I think it's really smart. I don't know why I'm so shocked that it's Reformation. Not only did I not know they did menswear, but I thought it would have been Calvin Klein. For something of Pete's caliber, I didn't realize Reformation had money like that. Honestly.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Yeah, no. And you know, all of their dresses are made from like, you know, dirty diapers.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
True, true. I don't know. Like if I was Pete, I just would have wanted a little more for my comeback photo shoot. Not that there's anything wrong with Reformation, but it's not like designer. I think Calvin Klein would have been. And I think he's done Calvin Klein before. Or Skims. or skims?
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
He basically did. I don't get any. I had one and a half and then I had another one this morning. So we have two left.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Oh, she's so crazy for that. Honestly, like that's nuts. And like, she does do too much.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
did it also sound like one syllable? Like you could tell based how long the bleep was.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Or it was like a nobody like Dave, you know, someone we don't know.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
There's nothing wrong with tattoos, but it's a huge commitment. I think a lot of people get them done on a whim. They regret them. And he didn't choose. He didn't keep any. Not even Kim as my lawyer. Not the kids names. That was really weird.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Exactly. Like the first time you have an inkling for a tattoo, make note of it. Don't run to the store. Just jot it down. And then if you keep thinking about it two, three, four times, then you know that you really want it. But if you never think about it again, thank God you didn't get it.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Yeah. In the words of Kim Kardashian, would you put a bumper sticker on a Bentley? Is that her quote? I don't know if she coined it, but she popularized it in that scene from like OG Keeping Up. Got it. Oh, no, I'm sorry. She said it on Letterman. I think he was asking them if they have tattoos. Do any of them have tattoos? They're not like a tattoo family.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Except maybe they get like those little ones on their fingers that like celebrities love. Yeah.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
But remember she got Lamar's initials on her finger? I also feel like I could see her having, like, a cross on her ankle.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
No, I don't think he really cares more about like even having competition in terms of in the kitchen because Ben is going to be a better cook than me till the day I die. I could practice every day for the rest of my life. I think it's more so about like having like another culinary creator.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
People forget, like, Chloe went to prison for a couple of hours. Like, she's a real one, okay? Yeah.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Yeah. Do you think Chloe actually did go to prison that day or like for the cameras? Because they said she got let out the same day because of overcrowding.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Like you think she was in the facility? Yeah. Yeah. That's really crazy.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Let me just say, I'm kind of like a Lisa Rinna hater, even though I'm kind of reformed. I hated her character on the show, but I understand that she was a necessary sort of evil. And I do feel like she has all this momentum and fame and public interest that got kind of stifled from leaving the show, because we never got another outlet for it, right?
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
And so I think there's actually, I think this is a fabulous idea. Even though, like, I don't know if I'm the target demo for it, people also just love her husband. It's really so crazy. I forget what I was watching. Oh, when we were watching Desperate Housewives, I was explaining to Ben, like, how none of these people were really famous before the show. The show made them all famous.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Except Nicolette Sheridan was very much like Hollywood royalty. She was married to Harry Hamlin. And it just reminded me that, like, he's literally so Hollywood. And he's also, like, an older gentleman, so he's, like, a little old Hollywood, too, you know?
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
No, that's not why podcasts were created, right? They're like this sort of renegade medium, like outside of mainstream. So that's why so many of the most popular podcasts are people with like crazy hot takes like Joe Rogan or like, you know, Tucker Carlson's podcast is huge. When you're kind of like a fringe, that's what the medium was created for.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
So if you're like out here just being like, hot dogs aren't sandwiches. Like that's not why people go to podcasts.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Yeah. And I was just kind of thinking because like baking muffins is such like a comfort creator thing to do. Right. Like your favorite YouTubers just like make muffins. But there was absolutely nothing comforting about my video. Like it was just we were on edge. It was really chaotic. So I was kind of giving like some people are comfort creators and I realized I'm a chaos creator.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Same, although I do wonder if it's gonna be a guest-based show. Because while I think that she could pull great guests, she knows a lot of people, him too. That's where podcasting becomes weird when like a really talented person, a really interesting person is a host and then is forced to interview other people and more so listen than talk.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
And I actually don't think Lisa Rinna would be a good interviewer. That's my only concern. But if it's just them two going back and forth, talking about like different relationship things, parenting, celebrity, working in the industry, like that's interesting for sure.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
They should also have their girls on. Their girls are wildly interesting and also are always making waves.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Especially that Amelia. She's like in some drama with the Gabrielle of it all. Do you know?
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Well, so that's the thing. Gabrielle, who's Maddie Healy's fiance, who's like this very creative, like different, you know. Amelia, a couple of years ago, like started to shift her look from like what we knew, very normal looking, all American commercial vibes to very high fashion, slicked back, bleached eyebrows, gap tooth. And she started to really look like- No, but Gabrielle has a gap.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Like, that's the vibe I'm saying. Like, unconventional beauty.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
No, she didn't drill a gap in her teeth. My bad. And a lot of people started to pick up on the similarities in the look she ended up creating with Gabrielle and then a lot of, like, their mannerisms. So it's kind of an ongoing internet theory is the Gabrielle versus Amelia of it all. So, like, take it to the podcast, Amelia. Let's hear about it.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
No, it's kind of like the chicken and the egg. Who came first, Paige Lorenz or the other girl?
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
meg no and the the bank the no she's not a marchioness what is she her husband is a a marquis a marquee what's a marquee but she you know the march she's a bank or something yeah a bath yeah a bath yeah bank um yeah who came first the marchioness or megan who came first pager morgues who came first jc or kendall who came first gabriette or amelia that one's pretty well documented right and it's gabriette most of them it's a question i don't think
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Yeah, and I think for like the tennis girls, it was all like happening at the same time. So we were like, wait, who came first? But if you go back, I think it's Paige.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Yeah, it's well documented. Yeah, just gotta find out. And this is, it's like all of these is someone's Roman Empire. Like, you know, people are like obsessed with these like random, like dual lives. Yeah, so funny. For me, like I don't particularly care. It's more so like, Yeah, no, this is not my Roman Empire. So I'm just, I'm having fun. I'm along for the ride. Yeah.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
I think that's really, I think it's fabulous, honestly. I usually like roll my eyes a little bit when people like enter the podcasting space who do other things. But maybe it's because I liked the title a lot. Yeah. But I actually think this is great.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
It's a very particular type of stuff. Just because you're like super famous, everybody loves you, doesn't mean you're going to be a good podcaster. Who had more eyes on her than Meghan Markle?
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Was not made for podcasting. It's such a weird niche thing. And even the most popular podcasters are like freaks randoms you've never heard of. Right. And they're not the biggest.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
A lot of the most famous people in America like star podcasts. And seriously, the culture remains unchanged.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Except let me tell you, baking, and it took a long time because I was being really thorough, my back will never recover. I almost pulled up a bar stool to finish cooking. My back was killing me.
The Toast

And then Golden Bachelorette. Right, Bachelor and Bachelorette. I do feel like the female-led ones are probably the lowest rated because it's more fun to have all the girls fighting over a guy.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Girls bring the drama. Girls make it more interesting. 25 girls and one guy. That I'd probably rather watch, get to know all these funny, crazy, quirky girls, than 25 guys and one girl. That's boring.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Yeah, it's a get a job. So I could see like the golden bachelorette or the bachelorette being the first to go. I don't I know they're trying to make it seem like this is all good. I don't think this is a good sign for a franchise that in my mind has been dying for years.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
yeah it's still you can't just have the bachelor no but i think people really like bachelor in paradise i think it's still decently rated compared to like other cable shows but we compare it to like what it once was so i don't know if it's like a huge flop or a failure i don't think it loses money for the network but they really need to just shake it up it's like the same format the same dates the same thing like all the time when dating shows are you hearing about montoya
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
It's actually, it's a Spanish show. So I don't know the name of the show.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Yeah, they have like reality shows. Oh my God.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
it's okay it's a it's temptation island which is a u.s show but it's temptation island spain okay and so a couple of clips from the show it's just like a reality show where they put a bunch of singles you know and actually i think they're couples and it's temptation island because you like you you watch your partner go into a house and watch them on a tv to see if they're going to cheat on you very casa amor vibes
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Okay. Um, and there's this couple, the guy's name is Montoya and his girlfriend is like majorly stepping out and he's forced to watch it. Like literally watching her have sex and like two separate, she had sex with two different people.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Um, and he's like on this, you know, you know, they sit on like a wooden log in the middle of the woods forced to watch on a TV and he's having a fucking breakdown. Like he can't, it's very normal reaction actually for somebody you love. The clips went so viral. Um, And whatever, that's irrelevant.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
I was also waiting to post the vlog to see like people telling me like, you did this wrong, you know? And for the most part, nobody said that, although there is a conspiracy theory, because I was having a really hard time telling apart like which was the flour, which was the salt, which was the sugar, because I put them all in these stupid like aesthetic containers and I didn't label them.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
But what I'm saying is like when you think about the landscape of dating shows right now, like Netflix crushes it. They had like Too Hot to Handle, Love is Blind. Love Island. Love Island. Everybody's sort of stepping their pussies up based off of a concept that The Bachelor created. And they never evolved. Like it's the same thing.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
three-hour telecast with the same dates, the same concept, the same everything. The biggest thing they ever did was when they did Bachelor in Paradise. And even that compared to, like, Love Island, it's stale. It's old. It's boring.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Their focus on The Bachelor is selling as many commercials as they can. So if you're going to commit to watching an episode, you have to watch three hours. Plus, after the rose, women tell all. They're really exploiting people's time. That's why I personally stopped watching it. I was like, how many hours do I have to watch just to see who wins? It's not fun anymore.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Yeah, it's just, they really can't compete. Like Netflix, like Love is Blind, first of all, no commercials. And it's so good. Like even when it's bad.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
I just think it's like a helpful way of like making television. I don't know.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
I didn't move. That's actually really true. I don't know.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Why are you putting in blocks for commercial breaks? I'm still sitting in the exact same spot I was when I heard. I didn't move. And I remember what she said five seconds ago. Right. They do do that. Maybe it's like just like this trend in editing. They can't stop. It's taking a while to shake. No one told them like we can stop. They don't have to do it. Yeah, they do do that. I don't know.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
That's a good point. So I feel like they can tell us all they want that this is not like a sign of the times, but I think it is. Yeah, I think so too. They just don't want to scare people.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
It's Tuesday, which means it's Dear Toasters. Our weekly advice segment where Jackie and I do our best to help the girlies in need.

The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
scroll down, there's a little submission box. Both methods are, they're going to the same place, you have just as good of a chance of getting on the show, and they're both anonymous, so don't worry. Are you ready? Actually, I'm gonna give you a little bit of a choice today, because I had four submissions that I really, really liked. But I'll do my favorite first, ready?
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
So I knew the flour, like the flour is so easy because it's like, but the sugar and the salt, I was like, I don't know, they're really like giving such similar energy. And then somebody made the amazing point that I might have actually, instead of sugar, used protein powder. A couple of people, that's like a running theory amongst the community.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Dear Jackie and Claudia, I've got this amazing boyfriend. He's literally perfect, except for one tiny detail. He's blind. Now here's the twist, because he can't see. He'll sometimes ask me how much I weigh, and it sends my insecurity levels through the roof. Like, how am I supposed to respond to that? On one hand, I want to be honest, because, well, honesty is the best policy.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
But on the other hand, I'm terrified of him judging me, even though he can't see me. Do I lie and keep the peace, or just tell him no and dodge the question altogether? It's also confusing when your boyfriend can't see you, but somehow still manages to see right through you. Am I an awful person for even asking this? Love ya. Bye.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
No, here's the thing. I want to help this blind man. I think it's important that we all- You want to help him see. I just want to help him, whatever he needs. I'm watching the season where Carlos is blind on Desperate Housewives right now. And the way the community really just gets, they get him a job and they're always helping him out. It's beautiful. Being blind, I can't even imagine.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
It seriously sounds like the hardest thing on the planet. So I want to help this man. But I just feel like he actually doesn't need to know that. You can really, based on- Feel, touch. You can know what your partner looks like. Literally, why does it matter? I don't know. Carlos would never. Because Gabby was saying, when Carlos is blind, it's also when they're poor and then they have kids.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
And Gabby, she's not her glam self anymore. She puts on weight. She looks like a mom. Not that that's bad. But she's not a glamazon model anymore. And she says, Carlos, I'm embarrassed. Even though you can't see me, I don't love the way that I look anymore. I put on weight. Carlos would never ask this question. You know what I mean? He loved Gabby so unconditionally.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
I just think based on my limited knowledge of the blind community, which is limited, I feel like they really learn things by touch, not by numbers. I think he might have ulterior motives for asking the question.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
And of course, if you do end up telling him, it's minus 15. Yeah, I was going to say, you have at least a 10-pound grace period. 10 to 15 max, okay? Yeah.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
I know, because they did taste like a little healthy. In which case, then I made sugar-free muffins.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
It's Will Ferrell. Is it Anchorman? Did you hear me? I'm blind. We have Ben say that all the time. I have no idea. That's so funny. I forgot about that. What's it from? Row One. What is that? I've never even seen that movie. Star Wars?
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
It's Will Ferrell. He's standing in the ocean saying it. It's Anchorman 2. Anchorman 2, yeah. He loses his vision and then he makes it everyone's problem. He's standing in the ocean, did you hear me? I'm blind.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
I know, I know, I know. And this is my Dear Toaster's toxic trait where I want to see the partner, especially the man in the relationship, is always being the villain or gay. So yeah, I'm projecting here.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Right, like we're at a cliff, like important information. Right, so like give him the benefit of the doubt. All right, next up, we've got a little weird mother behavior. Hey, Jackson Turdy, a text from my boyfriend of one year's mom. She's typed that really weird. So she has a boyfriend of one year. And a text popped up on his phone from his mom and he was sleeping.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
You know, a couple of months ago, like right, not right after, but after I found out I was pregnant before I could tell people, I was like feeling like doing projects around the house. Like I was really feeling like I need to make my home. Nasty. Misty Lou. And one of the things I did, and this was months ago, was me and Ben went to Bloomingdale's. We bought all new pots and pans, new knives.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
So she opened it and began scrolling through the messages, which is really crazy. And she found texts. Looking for trouble. I find texts from her to him talking very intimately about our sex life. Things like me coming, how enjoyable it is for a man to see a woman climax, me being less experienced than him, and so much more. I am so upset, and I haven't said anything to him about it yet.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
I feel so uncomfortable. I fear the next time I see her, I'm not one who talks openly about sex or very freely, but maybe with friends, definitely not with my mom. The whole thing has really given me such a pit. So there's like a lot of layers here.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Like obviously it's the betrayal of like something intimate between you two, but also like we need to talk about like the mental illness that is like talking about climaxing with your mother. Like I know, and first of all, it's different when it's a son and his mom, but I think even like girls who tell their mom like things about sex is less weird, but they don't even go into this much detail.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Like this is really fucking like serial killer ass behavior. I... I don't know what I would be, like, I feel you. Like, what are you more angry about? The betrayal? Or are we concerned? Like, I'm concerned, actually. That's bothering me more.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Okay. So it's literally the episode of Sex and the City where Carrie's dating that writer who prematurely ejaculates. I think he's played by Justin Theroux and he comes from like this really like big family of intellects. And the dad is a professor at Yale or no Columbia. And the mom is this, um, I think she's like a sex therapist type of thing.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
So she knows about the son's premature ejaculation and she like wants to talk about it with Carrie and Carrie's like, no, it's less weird. Cause she is this like very like, you know, but I do think the toaster would have written in if there was even a remote pertinence to this woman's line of work. Like, let's just say she works in sales. Okay.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
We really wanted the kitchen to be party. We cleaned out all the cabinets. And one of the things I did was buy those, you know.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Well, also the problem is when you go snooping, how to get this stuff brought up. How can you bring it up to him?
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
That's tough. But also, I'm glad you snooped. Usually, like, snooping, you're going to find information you don't want. And while, like, you didn't want to know this, this really isn't something that can go on forever. It's really fucking weird. And honestly, this is something that would just, like, give me the ick to a person. Like, I don't care how p-jum your boyfriend is.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Like, you're talking about orgasming with your mom. Like, ew, you're ugly to me now. You know what I mean?
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Oxo containers. And I just put, I don't even remember what I put in there. And I didn't label it. So it's entirely possible I made like either salt muffins, protein powder muffins, or sugar muffins. I don't know.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
That's really sweet, but it is a big deal. So let's give her some actual advice. You have to bring it up to him and just say, I don't know if you can just admit to snooping.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Yeah. You'll have to come up with a creative way to bring it up that doesn't make you look crazy because you have to protect your own interests here. But he should absolutely know that you're just not comfortable. Like you don't like judge and shame him for talking about this with his mom. That's like a problem for another time. But he does need to actively stop doing that like today. Yeah.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
So I would say, listen, I'm not comfortable with that. Talk to your friends. Literally talk to a therapist. Talk to anyone. Please don't talk to your mother.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
And I want to know, why do you need to talk about your sex life with anyone other than the person you're having sex with?
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Why do you need to keep people abreast as to what's going on in your bedroom when you just have a girlfriend? Yeah. It's not like you're seeing a bunch of people. What's going on?
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Oh, that's actually very good advice.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Okay, our third and final Dear Toasters is a Dear Toasters collab with NBW, Naggy Bitch Wife, okay? Hey, Swirlies, love you guys. Listening to the toast makes my commute one of the best parts of my day, so thank you. Oh, that was so sweet. I wasn't expecting to get choked up at Dear Toasters. I'm ready to settle a debate with my husband.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
We've been married for four years and he has a really disgusting habit. I've convinced him to stop as far as I know since it gave me a serious ick, not to mention it was really unsanitary. My husband likes to pee in the bathroom sink, the same sink where we brush our teeth, at least I do.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
and where I wash my face the toilet is no more than three or four steps away from the sink we do not have his or her sinks it's just one singular bathroom sink and he insists that all men do it out of convenience quote I told him there's no way that all men do this and that I was gonna have to write into your toasters to settle this once and for all is this normal have you witnessed your husbands do this absolutely not I've never seen this I've never heard of this
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
I have, but it's extenuating circumstances. Like if me and Ben, back in our old apartment, when we had one bathroom, I mean, we both like really had to pee. Of course I get to go first. Ben, like maybe once or twice peed in the sink. He's gonna kill me for saying that.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
No, no. To do it, to opt for the sink- instead of the toilet. No, all men don't do that. It's an emergency thing. I think it's not completely unheard of, I have to tell you. Men definitely do this, but I don't think they use the sink as a toilet all the time. Like as a rule.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
It's Tuesday. I meant to tell you. You know we have dear toasters today. I know. They're really good. We're kind of wearing like complimentary outfits. Not complimentary. What's the word? Like I should be wearing your outfit and you should be wearing mine.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
that only you have the key to and he can go do that in a different sink in a public bathroom not the kitchen um yeah no by the way you're 100 right in asking him but like i don't i don't want to indulge him at all but he isn't wrong like i i do think people do this because i think in the mind of like a really sort of like a small brain man it's like it's all going to the same place
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Facts. Facts. Although like when I was like testing my urine a lot for like ovulation or like pregnancy tests and you would like put it in a cup. What do you do with the pee? Pour it back in the toilet. Yeah, I guess that's like a much smarter way. I was pouring it down the sink.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
I also want to share something that I did. Like, I need to unburden myself. Okay. There were a couple of times where like I woke up first and it has to be your first pee in the morning. Right. So where I woke up first thing in the morning and I didn't have a cup. Usually I would like leave a red solo cup and I would like rinse it and wash it and use it every day, which is like probably gross.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
But either like the cup got thrown out or it wasn't there. And I like was in I was like literally about to pee and I couldn't get up off the toilet. I needed something to pee in. So I used, you know, the really big hairspray. I have, it's like the red one, big, sexy hair and the big red, the big black top lid. I use the lid as a cup. I just needed to, I needed to unburden myself.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
And by the way, I rinsed it and then put it back on my hairspray. I did.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Yeah, no, I'm not, and I'm pretty sure it's the same bottle of hairspray I'm still actively using, so. Power G. Power G, put them in STEM. I needed to unburden myself. So maybe that's why I'm a little bit more sympathetic and understanding to this man. But I just, I want to say like, I back the toaster here. Like he should not be doing this. I back the toaster.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
So true. Because you're not washing your face in the toilet. Right. That's Dear Toasters. Thank you to everyone who wrote in. To the girl who had that crazy story about her man taking new photos of her and her friends and putting it in the group chat. We haven't heard from you. Stop.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Sorry. We haven't heard from you. No pressure. If you never want to write in again, you don't have to. I'm sorry that you went through that. We would love to hear from you, obviously. I just want to let you know I think of you often and I'm wishing you well.

The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Oh my God. I was actually thinking this morning about Jersey Shore as a concept because Ben weirdly came in and was like, G-G-G-G-G-G-G unit. And I was like, What are you talking about? Then we just went down a rabbit hole of that band that 50 Cent was a part of. But when I think of G-Unit, I think of Unit.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Isn't it just one of those days where you're feeling extreme gratitude for your health? Like little things you used to take for granted, just like breathing through your nose.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
And I think of that guy from Jersey Shore who was Mike's friend and kept, and Snooki didn't want him to come because he knew Snooki's big bad secret. Oh, and I feel like as a culture, we don't talk enough about that conspiracy theory that Mike had started, that him and Snooki slept together while she was with Gianni. He was telling the truth.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
probably but that's none of our business 100 100 but like she was like we wrote for her so america wrote for her so hard that like we didn't care about the validity of the statement and i don't even remember this time but you telling it to me now it's like i don't care if they did or they didn't it's not about like mike being a liar it's about mike being a shit starter yeah no he like tortured her with it like over two years with like whispered in her ear and like just like threatened to release the tapes there weren't tapes you know what i mean um
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
And Unit was there. Remember, that was like Mike's friend who like really knew the truth. I was just thinking about that this morning. Those are the days.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Sometimes you just walk into your house a different person and you're no longer Jackie, you're Sarah.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Oh, and you have to know, when Jackie was in college, of course you still use fashion to express yourself, but you were really... You were really like into kawaii fashion, bright colors, like very out there. Yeah. No, every day. Big, huge, chunky platforms.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
You guys can't even picture it. You can't even picture the stuff, Jackie. You should do like a little collage on your Instagram story today of some of the crazy, wacky outfits that you used to wear in college. It was a form of self-expression and you looked super cute. But so the joke was even funnier because you were such a crazy dresser.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
No, we really take for granted, like, just feeling decent.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
That's funny. I didn't know that you had like a little joke with your friends. Wow.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Yeah. Oh, that's so funny. What was I going to say? We have tear toasters. What are the stories like today?
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Everyone's loving our Super Bowl recap. They said, we love it so much. This is the best, most amazing thing we've ever heard.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
No, it's so fun to really all be talking about the same thing.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Wait, we were getting lots of Eagles hate yesterday being like, you guys can't even. And. What did we say?
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Did we not? I even said I thought that they were only winning against the Commanders because they were playing like a team of deaf, dumb, and blind. But it turns out they're actually a skilled team. I didn't understand where the hate was coming from.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
I'm not going to say the entire chief season was like a hoodwink scam. Like that's rude. They like, they literally were almost undefeated. So I'm not saying that, but I'm saying like, good job to the Eagles. They played better and they won. They were the better team. I said that yesterday and I was like, I've seen, Oh my God. Like the girls took so dumb about the Eagles.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Like we were on your side and people be like, I can't believe they were rooting. I wasn't even rooting for any team in particular. Yeah. I was like, are we watching the same episode of the toast?
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Like seriously, leave me out of your drama. Go to therapy.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
We've been really good about our chip. Do you agree?
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
I feel like we actually haven't even talked about our chip in this new studio.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Jackie and I just have like a chip on our shoulder about like our whole career. Who doesn't, by the way?
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Yeah, no, we just feel like we work really hard. We get so much hate.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
We get so overlooked. We are constantly being overlooked. And we have a chip about it and it comes up sometimes. Sometimes it also is a chip that comes in the shape of Kelly Clarkson. It's a Kelly Clarkson sized chip because she hasn't come on the toast.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Nobody was more overlooked. Nobody was more kind of sidelined by the industry. You know who else I feel has a chip? And rightfully so because she does not even get half the credit she deserves for her talent.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
I feel like you know what I'm going to say. Come on.

The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Yeah. And she's actually been on this show somewhat recently. She's our queen. We're always saying how she's like, Kiki Palmer definitely has a chip on her shoulder and she, and she should because the industry and she gets a lot of opportunities, but it's not enough for her level of talent.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Like remember when Tiffany Haddish had this huge moment, like she was in a movie and then like it literally spiraled her entire career off of this one. Where's that moment for Kiki Palmer? It hasn't happened yet.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Speaking of cooking, just quick segue, I spent all day in the kitchen yesterday making muffins, but mostly making content for the Patreon. Jackie had this fab title for a new series we're going to start calling Barefoot Contourty. As you guys know, I've actually never successfully cooked something in my life like to completion, even if it's edible, which most of the time it's not.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Correct, so her chip warranted. Ours 1,000%.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Yeah, but I wasn't thinking of who you were thinking.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Because there are people who just like blow up.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Whether it's like online and acting and singing and just like get like their career goes as it should. Yeah. There's no roadblocks. There's no chips. They're just like, yeah, you should host the VMAs. Like it's kind of a chippy industry.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
And honestly, if you really want to get into the symbolism of the frames.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
Representative, yeah, of the chips. Jackie, they are physically on our shoulders.
The Toast
The Philadelphia Chips: Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
I hate to cut this short, the pre-Fast Five banner, because you know it's the highlight of my day. Just cut me off, yeah. But we have a lot to do. We have Dear Toasters. We have the Fast Five. And I just want to make you aware that we're approaching 20 minutes.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
When we walk out to that song, because you know that's gonna be our new walkout song, like, sorry, Invincible by Kelly Clarkson, you've gotten the boot. That is a moment I cannot wait for.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
No, seriously, the hardest part is getting a Spotify profile.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Okay. And the stories are brought to you by State Farm. Thank you, State Farm, for sponsoring today's episode of The Toast. We know that the toasters can agree nothing feels better than a personal win. Like when you get your final piece of furniture delivered to your apartment, your home really feels complete.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Maybe you hit a personal record in a new run or a workout, whatever it is that you define as a win. It calls for celebration. And do you have any idea who's cheering right beside you, Jaxx?
The Toast

Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there. And also State Farm is there in any method you feel comfortable with. You can talk to a safe farm agent on their app, on their website. So if you're like a real tech swirly, perhaps you're the IT department of your small business as well. Or you're like more of a Jackie. You prefer to communicate IRL in person or over the phone like a grandmother.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
You could do all of that. They've really got all the toasters covered. Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there. That'll also have to go on our Spotify page, Toast Tunes. Of course. Today's episode is also brought to you by BetterHelp. We often hear about the red flags that we should avoid, but what if we focused more on looking for green flags in friends and in partners? I'm not sure.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
I'm thinking of something funny I have to tell you. I have to remind me. Check out BetterHelp.com. They also make it really easy to switch therapists anytime at no extra cost. I think a lot of people want to get into therapy, but the idea of having to talk to somebody in person is genuinely too much.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And that's why online therapy is so fabulous and BetterHelp is the best in the biz because you can talk to a therapist at... at your convenience in like the method you're most comfortable with. So some people like video chats, some people like phone call, you can text, whatever it is, they're available for you to make you comfortable.

The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Tom and Lynette are doing couples counseling, and the therapist says that, like, after hours, she's like, oh, yeah, I do, like, community theater. They're like, oh, we'd love to come and, like, support. And they go see her in, like, some community production, and she's so bad that they can't take her advice seriously. Yeah. It was actually one of the funniest concepts.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Me and Ben were cracking up so hard. It was so funny.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
So that was the first thing. The second thing was, I don't know if you know what today is. Do you know?
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
She didn't say before 1030 a.m. Eastern time, though, which was disappointing.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Because we could have been first and now we're going to be last.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
To read. And also for other people to break it down. Yeah, sometimes when news breaks on the toast and it's like really like dense.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
That's how I felt about Karen Huger yesterday. Like I wish I had time to process before I had to like give my opinion on my queen.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
No, no. You know also my favorite thing is getting live breaking news. Because I'm over here, I'm unplugged.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Okay. Yeah, but, like, I feel like if the list breaks, like, immediately, like, the first, like, the biggest, like, three or five people, like, they'll do the work for us, the internet.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
You're kidding. You can bet on who's going to be on the flight logs?
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
With Epstein specifically? No, me neither. But do you think that somebody being on a flight log is an automatic admission of pernicious, I don't know if that's the right word, peculiar pedophilic behavior? No.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
I agree, but that's the same way I feel about, like, all those Getty images of, like, Ghislaine Maxwell with different celebrities. Like, when you're a celebrity, like, and you're around really wealthy people, like, yeah, you go on each other's planes, you take pictures at events. It's not an admission of, like, oh, I knew you were a madam and you were hiring hookers for me.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
If you're going to and fro, to and fro from, what do they call the island? Little... pedophile island, what's like the colloquial term for it?
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Oh yeah, if you're going to and fro Epstein Island and you're not even coming back with so much as a tan, I'm suspicious.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Do you know, yeah, hopefully whoever's like doing the stats will release like, here are the most famous people, but here are also the people who went the most times, the most frequent riders.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
I want frequency. Oh, fuck the alphabet here. Excel, sort by amount. If you were to take a look at my outfit, you would assume that I'm wearing a set, right? Yeah. Isn't it crazy that I'm not? I just happen to have this shirt and these pants that look, they're the same material, they're the same color. Are they both Spanx? No, my pants are from Revolve and my top is from Avara.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Right, Air Essentials. I feel like I'm walking around and everybody's like, oh, cute set. I'm like, you don't even know.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
You don't even know the ingenuity that went into picking out this look.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Which also coincides, quite poetically, with National Chili Day.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And it was like- No, I'm talking about, sorry, the audience loves it. And that's why we do it. To be the creator of the vlog is one of the worst experiences. It's a, well, it wasn't a try on vlog. Jackie was sharing all like the new clothes she got for spring, but-
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
I guess it's really sad. I like I know we have to talk about Michelle Trachtenberg, but I actually was somebody who really was impacted by her work. I know a lot of our listeners were like I really loved her and I feel really sad. So I'm definitely procrastinating. But yes.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Now everybody's sharing their favorite things. When I think of Michelle Trachtenberg, I know she was in a lot of things. But now that I'm looking at her career as a whole, she literally raised us from Harriet the Spy up until Gossip Girl. She was in Eurotrip. Ice Princess is my favorite fucking movie. She really did it all.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
We're living in a simulation. Now, I think that, like, national days are, like, the lowest form of human communication.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Right. So I think that if you looked at her social media in recent years, you could tell that she physically looked different, whether she was struggling with illness or something wasn't clear. And so I didn't know until yesterday that she had recently undergone a transplant for a new liver. So it's just – it's so sad because she was so young and like really so full of talent.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And I think she really – she really left her mark on a generation of young women that I would include myself in. And I just rewatched Gossip Girl, so she's very present. And I don't know, I just, sometimes when a celebrity dies, it really hits you. And this is just terrible.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Yeah. Like, when I was a social media intern, my job was, like, literally making graphics for, like, National Margarita Day.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Yeah, agreed. And I don't think about her a lot. So when I saw her name in the headlines, I'm like, oh, what's she up to? It certainly wasn't expected to see deceased.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
So sad. Blake Lively posted a tribute. Jenny Momsen.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And a fun fact about Michelle Trachtenberg is she dated like my absolute celebrity crush when I was in high school. And I don't know if I really knew that she was a New Yorker. Like I associated her with New York because of Gossip Girl, but the fact that she still lives in New York. So she was obviously like a gal about town at the time.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And when I was in high school, there was a basketball player on the Knicks called Danilo Gallinari. He was Italian. I don't think he spoke a lick of English. He was so fucking hot. Nowhere obsessed. And he no longer plays, but like he had a couple of years in New York where he was like pretty good. It's, he was kind of just like a, he was a guy about town.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
So hot. No, he was good. He was good. It wasn't like amazing, you know? Um, and they dated and she was like the only celebrity or like woman I ever saw him date. Um, And then I ran into him at the Faina like years ago. And I asked him to take a picture. And I was like actually being a freak. The way I was obsessed with this man. And she dated him. I believe there's like one photo of them together.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And I loved that for her. Like Slay, it was such like a New York moment. And she was a queen for that. She was a princess, an ice princess. And I really, I wish her family well. She was a Jewish queen.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
I mean, Trachtenberg, like, we went to camp with her.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Right, I need to find that picture of her and Danilo Gallinari just to, like, feel something again.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
I was so jealous at the time, but it also, like, because I'm crazy, gave me hope because, like, she was a brunette Jew. Like, that's obviously your type. That's obviously your type. Now, I can't even find one photo of them together. Maybe they were just spotted together.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And the websites that, like... what's the word I'm looking for? Aggregate all the days. So like you could just pull up, be like, all right, what should I do for work today? Oh, it's National Lemons Day. It's National Muffins Day. But it is National Toast Day. And if we're not going to acknowledge that, like who will?
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Bleacher report. Gossip Girl star Michelle Trachtenberg dating Nick Stanillo Gallinari, according to New York Post report. She was 26 and he was 22. Oh, a younger man. Ooh. No, it was real. I guess they were never even spotted together. That's really crazy.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Yeah, I guess I like AI generated like a photo in my head because there was one like specific one in mind. But I guess, I guess not.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
So was the dog dead? I wasn't getting like clear.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Right. And I think a lot of people, because the police say there was no foul play, um, Suspected. Suspected, which is so crazy when two people are found dead. I think a lot of people are just jumping to the conclusion that they died of carbon monoxide poisoning, which happens a lot. Like if you're in the same house, which I do think would also take out a dog.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
That is a. Cause how, like it is suspicious by nature. You're both dead. He's 95. She's in her sixties.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Yeah. If it's not foul play, but you're both found dead. I actually think people jumping to that conclusion is a pretty safe assumption. It's very common. It's more common than you would think. That's really crazy if that's what happened. And that's actually a great reminder to you and everyone. Check out your carbon monoxide alarm things.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
That's crazy. And I'm sure his breadth of work goes far beyond that one line in Heartbreakers, but he was 95, so I didn't see a lot of his work.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Oh, I can't believe they didn't put Heartbreaker in there.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Well, I don't know. It's disgraceful and shows a real lack of taste.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
That's what I was saying. Like he's so accomplished that Heartbreakers doesn't even crack the top 10. Yeah. That movie is so good.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Yes. Support. And it's just it's such a fabulous film.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
He has a very familiar face. But when I saw his face, I automatically knew. I'm like, that's my boy. I feel like vomiting. And I do feel like vomiting. I do. I feel sad. Lots of death today. Those are like the worst stories to cover.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Wait, I didn't know any of this. I didn't know where the sentence was going because you said extraterrestrial. And then you said Katy Perry. So I'm like, oh. Oh, her song. She's remixing.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
I'm like, oh, that's funny, Jackie. Good job. And then I'm like, wait, Gayle? Lauren? I did not know where the sentence was going from the moment you started.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Right. I don't know. So I did want to acknowledge the space that we are in and, you know, kind of honor the national calendar in that way.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Yes, I love when you read a story that I, like usually I know what we're gonna talk about or I've seen it on social media. I haven't even heard this story and I need to know how the three of these women got connected.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
I just want to say, if all these billionaires, it's the space race, they're all getting up there, doing their thing, and they're all like, I'm taking the first cancer patient, I'm taking the first dog, like, And so, like, I could see somebody say, I'm taking the first podcaster and sending me an invitation, right?
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
The way I would never go on Blue Origin, like, it just gives, like, the janky vibes, that kind of Spirit Airlines energy. Like, I don't know. It's low-key kind of a crazy thing to do. I would soon go on Virgin. I would obviously go on SpaceX. Like, they're obviously best in the biz. And then I think I would go Richard Branson. Like, he would be my last, Jeff Bezos. I don't know why.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
His airline, he, like... he did it for the wrong reasons, right? He wants to like keep up with Elon. He wants to like be a billionaire, like be buff and like, yeah, I'm going to space too. He just does it for like really, I think shallow vapid reasons. And I think that it kind of gives submersible energy. Ooh.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
I think he's a nerd who's really interested in a lot of nerdy things. Not including space. Until he saw how much attention the other billionaires were getting. And he's now in this era of his life where he's doing things for attention. He doesn't go to Amazon every day and innovate. He gets on his boat. He wants to be a celebrity. He's hanging out with celebs. He's buffing up at the gym.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
He's thirsty. And so I think that this was a really... insincere project that he took on, not for the love of space travel. You can see when the other billionaires talk about space, like there's this curiosity there. He's doing it for really like shallow, he wants attention.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Right, and she's putting on a space suit and like orbiting throughout.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
I'm so uninterested. Again, no one has offered me a ride and they probably never will. But if it, if I ever got an invitation, like the way I would never go, I think it's seriously the stupidest thing.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Not only that, like if a podcaster is going to space, like that's the one that crashes. Like I just know it.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Yeah. I'm just saying, like, I could see someone being like, I could see Brian getting a seat and being like, do you want to come?
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And no, I don't. Like, don't ask me. I'm not going.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Is it a spoof or it's like a real movie?
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And they're all like trying to do these, not branded, but like categorize.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Yeah, no. Okay, maybe I would go as the fattest. But, like, it's just lame. It's really the Space Race is giving, like, dick measuring contest. And Jeff Bezos, for some reason, is giving me, like, smallest dick energy. Like, he was last to the... to the race. He is doing it for the wrong reasons. Like, I don't think he knows, like nerds have a lot of different interests. His was clearly tech.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And I don't think like he's into space. I think he does it because he wants to keep up with everyone.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And I think that's you painting with a broad brush.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Let's ask Kendall Jenner. She's totally like, are aliens real? She totally like takes like a private plane and like goes to Area 51. Being like, wait, did you guys hear that?
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
I feel like it's a way to make news, but they probably did film a bunch of stuff, but I don't think there's a feature film, like an hour and a half long movie that was made.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Yeah, and so... Are all nominees getting the same bag, like from the audio mixer to the supporting actor? That's a great question. Does the audio mixer get this bag? Does the audio mixer get the home renovation? Because that's, I've heard, you know, every year they share this and it's always like really luxury trips and products, but I've never heard of a free home renovation.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And does Best Documentary International Short get that?
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Oh, I wouldn't either. Like sometimes it's like when you win a car that if you win a car on a TV show, it could seriously put you in jail. Like how it could bankrupt you. Oh yeah. I would only accept the things I plan on using.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
It's also funny because when you get a gift bag from an event, you like think like you're walking out with like a tote. And this is not a, I'm sure it's not even a physical gift bag. Like it's not at the event.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
They probably deliver it to your house in like a pargy basket. Yeah.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Right. And that's why they always say like it's truly an honor to be nominated because it is. That's half the battle. It is.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
No. Is it our fifth and final story that's brought to you by Thrive Cosmetics, perchance? It is. For over 10 years, Thrive Cosmetics has celebrated the strength and beauty of women. But it's not just about makeup. It's about a commitment to becoming your best self, to thrive in every moment, and to empower others to do so.

And Thrive Cosmetics beauty products are certified 100% vegan and cruelty-free, made with clean, skin-loving ingredients, high-performance and trademarked formulas, and uncompromising standards. So Thrive Cosmetics is sort of a... if you will, of Toast Glam. I'm wearing the mascara right now. I've been wearing it for years. They have a bunch of really viral products.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
I think their Liquid Lash Extensions is probably their best seller. I love it. I get a new tube every couple of months, but they're brilliant. Eye Brightener is fabulous. Their Hydrating Shine Lip Tints are also fabulous. So the Liquid Lash Extension Mascara is a product I probably love the most. It lasts all day without clumping, smudging, or flaking. It's a tubing mascara.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
So you can kind of mimic the look of lash extensions without the damaging glue or the salon prices. And it's also really easy to remove. At night, I use like a little micellar water. It slides right off. With warm water, a washcloth, there's no soap required. It's nourishing ingredients support longer, stronger, and healthier looking lashes over time.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And it's a flake-free, they also have a flake-free tubing formula, which dramatically lengthens and defines your lashes from root to tip. Also, the Brilliant Eye Brightener is great for an inner corner highlight, a shimmery lid. It's really easy to use. It's very accessible. I feel like if you're not amazing at makeup, their products are really easy to use.

The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
If you haven't heard of Built, you're about to thank us because earning points on rent is now a reality when you pay your rent through Built.

I am a Built member. I have been for years.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025

Once you become a member, you'll earn valuable points on rent and then also on your everyday spending. So you can earn points on non-rent payments as well.

National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
They're still in like the phase of growing their family.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Right. And you'd love to see like a healthy marriage, keeping the spark alive. It's really such a good example for kids. And I do think that if you are like a young family where you have to like explain to your kids that like mommy's pregnant and like not not the birds and the bees, but like the beginnings, you know. This is a fabulous tool for that.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Yeah, they're just, like, they're these fictional families that exist exactly how they are.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
I am so shocked that you chose this as a story only because Meghan Markle posted on social media yesterday. And I thought for sure, like you were burned.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
I watched the video and there was like nothing to say about it. So I was curious if you were going to choose it. And like you had some theory that you saw.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
It was just a montage of clips. You didn't miss anything. Okay, so, I mean, I prefer Peppa.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Shaking that thang for Daddy Pig late at night. Mommy pig's on all fours. Oink, oink, bitch. Get over here. Bing, bong, bing, bong, bing, boom. You didn't know she was throwing it in a circle like that. I didn't know she was throwing that cooter for daddy pig. And you know what? It's really inspiring as somebody who's building my own family.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And, you know, you worry, of course, like, what's going to happen to my marriage? Yeah. You think, like, my marriage has been this way for eight years. And is it going to change? Will I stop being the priority? That obviously is, like, my biggest fear. Like, will Ben like the baby more than me? For sure. Yeah.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And it's nice to see like a really healthy example of a good all-American family, even though I believe they're British.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Yeah, I have no issues with that. And you know who would love that? King George.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
maybe peppa pig yeah she's like is the 1776 reincarnated spirit of king george who lost it all and the son is named george oh my god i'm telling you peppa pig is a colon colonizer i was gonna say it's giving colonization it is but that's a topic for another day today we celebrate the simcha okay but peppa pig is canceled Get her colonizing fat ass out of here.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Unfortunately, this year I will be home for National Margarita Day. I will not be able to celebrate.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Codgers and Peppers. Peppers Pinkers. Peppers. And you guys have the Peppa Pig Tony, right?
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
yeah yeah i i've been there for and we all dance it's so nice when i think about like how i won't have to invest in technology like that because like i am a tony you know oh do you know that there are tonys and someone told me to do this and this is a i did know this there are tonys that are called creative tonys where you can record stuff so like if you're traveling or something you could good morning girlies so we could put our song on a tony
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
That's an amazing question. I don't know why it would. Oh, speaking of you being amazing, we have to issue a correction from yesterday's episode. Karen Ugar was on her fourth DUI. Not her second.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
That's going to be hard not to curse for 25 minutes. We could edit it.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Oh, I love that. That's actually brilliant, like thinking for the future.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Okay, Olivia. Should we dive into Summer House recap? We should dive. Okay, so new episode of Summer House. Obviously like the big thing is Kyle versus Paige, which I am obsessed with, by the way, because I feel like Kyle gets away with so much and like sort of a lot of the Summer House castmates, especially people who have been on for a while, it's just sort of the,
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
it's just like this accepted thing that you have to like suck Kyle's ass. And I love to see Paige questioning that. Like never stop asking why.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
But he's not someone you want to champion.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
So before that, we meet the new man, Imrul, and we also see Danielle, which was... She was like, I've missed so much. Seriously, it's been one weekend. You've missed one weekend.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Yeah, and it was unclear because she just showed up one day, but is she staying the weekend? Yeah. Or is she just visiting?
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
She's kind of giving like senior who graduated who comes back.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Okay. And that July 4th party, I just feel like there's, I said this last week, but I feel like it was actually really obvious this week, the growing divide between like the younger castmates and the older ones, because like they shut down the party. It was still light out.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Yeah. So that really makes sense why. And I believe she was booked yesterday. Like she's literally in prison.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And then like everybody gets in bed, but like all the young people are on the couch, like still drinking, hanging out, Lexi and people like to be Jesse. I've seen so much Jesse Solomon hate.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Yeah, I didn't think she was being unreasonable and asking that, but I'm saying I'd seen a lot of like negative Jesse Solomon before that. Now I'm like, well, you're not serious. Like at first I was such a champion. I'm like, yes, like go get married. Who cares if you're going so fast?
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
But then like the fact that she just said, like, if you're going to get to know me, like, let's just get to know each other. I don't think that's unreasonable at all.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Of course they are. And like, it was funny. And like, he did it for like a bit. Like, I think he left one comment and people loved it. So it was just like something he did for the fans.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And then people started shipping him and it was like, Kyle's the worst. Like, look at this nice guy. It was funny and cute. But like, no, if you are actually seeing someone, if Ben was like leaving comments, like, and she didn't even say stop leaving comments. She was like, just change your words a little bit to like, you look beautiful in that dress. Yeah. Yeah.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
I thought nothing she said or requested was even remotely unreasonable. I thought she was actually really, like, measured in her requests. And the fact that he, that's where he lost me. Because up until this point, people were, like, hating, love bombing Jessie. Like, who cares? It's cute. Now I'm like, no, this is weird.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And then when she leaves and she's fresh out the slammer, I'm coming back home to Ray. Do you think Ray is going to stick it out? It's hard to have a partner in prison.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Now, I want to talk about Enroll because I like that they're bringing in someone who is young, who is single, who is hot. But like people who nonstop talk about how much sex they have. I was like, OK, so you're a virgin.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And that conversation between him and Wes about like, what are people from Bangladesh called? And he was like, Bengali. He was like, oh sweet, yeah, I love that. Like, okay. You love that? Okay, that's awesome. He's like, oh yeah, like Bengali tiger, I love that. Like as if Imrul made it up, like I love that. Like that's just the word.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
No, not at all. I don't think that's why he was brought
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
yes yes like even like think about the people who are in the house Kyle of course like is with Amanda but um he's not like a even Carl and Lindsay now that Carl's just like at the party doing the scavenger hunt although I do want to say I want to get that actually that made me like him a little bit like because it is an awkward thing like she's doing this household thing and what are you gonna do sit in the corner and cry so the fact that he not only participated but took it really seriously I actually like liked that so much me too but that's next week right
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Oh, is it? Yeah. I might not be thinking of the previews.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
That's very true. That's very true. I forgot about those dark years where they had to move out of the Potomac zip code.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Still in love with him. And I know, because I remember seeing a preview, like, down the line, there's, like, you know, more drama with Ciara and, like, Jesse Solomon flirting or something. And I really hope Ciara stops dating guys in the house. Because I feel like on Winter House, like, with the Austin stuff, and then that bled into Summer House with Danielle and Lindsay, like...
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
She dates like the single Bravo guys and expects something different than what we're going to get from these like 40 year old bachelors. And it's heartbreaking to see because you champion her so much because she's really sweet. She's just looking for love and she's still looking in the wrong places.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And I want to say, I was a big hater of Weenie West during the reunion. We coined the term Weenie West. I've moved on. I think he adds a lot to the show. I think he's really funny. And I think we're less and less, because the cast is really starting to separate into two groups, those that get into bed and those that hang out and party and go out and drink.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And Wes is a cornerstone of keeping that young group alive. So he's a real necessary part of the show. He's a good... Reality Star, like, that hot dog thing was hilarious. Like, they're doing, like, it's good. It's good. And I've seen so much hate for, like, the new young cast members. Like, the Bravo fans do not like the young girls, the young guys. So just Lexi and Bailey? Lexi, Jesse, and Wes.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Like, they don't like this... sort of new generation of stars coming in the house. And I disagree. And you know I'm such a hater when new people come. I'm always like, go back to the originals. Like I'm so stubborn. I think that Bravo has actually done a very good job of keeping the show. Like I said, you have to cycle people in and cycle people out. And I think they've done a great job.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And even though Bailey doesn't work out, Lexi's great.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Jesse and Wes last season. I think Lexi will stick around. So for so long, they couldn't keep a single guy in the house. And when you think of all the people who came in and out, it was so hard to find guys. Lexi is a fabulous addition. I think that they're doing like what they couldn't do with Vanderpump Rules. I think they're doing it quite well. I'm surprised to see so much hate.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Well, that's the other thing. I hate to blame Ray because it was Karen's fault. But a woman should never be driving herself at night.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
we need to talk about Paige and Lindsay like being friends and shopping together for baby clothes. It's all I ever wanted. It's all we've ever wanted. It was really beautiful to see and I love and I just I love so many things about it. Like I loved this auntie role that Paige like immediately fell into and just the whole thing made me so happy. And I just love this season of life for Lindsay.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Like we liked Lindsay before we were like Lindsay apologist, but she's always been like somebody you had to defend and be like, yeah, she's crazy. But, but this era of her life so suits her. She's so beautiful, like carrying and looking and it's just a joy to watch.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Yep. Then there was the rooftop party. I can't believe we haven't even spoken about. I can't believe how everybody shows up to these things. Like a rooftop summer party, like packed with people such like, you know, Paige was seriously dying not to go. Just like looks so horrible.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
just to watch this 47 year old man DJ for like a beverage company that he like uses like a knife and like stabs everybody with. I couldn't believe everybody showed up. Like that's so nice. And that's kind of what Paige was alluding to. Cause she like, you know, she puts up with this bullshit. She does things she doesn't want to do. She makes no money off of this company.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And I think for Paige, who has really steadily gone from being a reality star to a true celebrity and a really influential person, she just did a huge campaign with Malibu Rum or something. She gets paid for this. And so maybe it's starting to bother her a little bit more, plus the text messages were just like, are you fucking kidding me? I loved everything she said.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
He's supposed to be there as a guardian angel. He's an older gentleman, so he knows better. He's wiser. He didn't do his part. I definitely blame Ray. And that's the toxic Karen Huger stan in me. And think about what she might have been driving away from.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And then we didn't like the spritz and the Craig of it all. But beyond that, it's like, are you kidding me? Like how, how dare you even say one crossword to me after all I do for you? And I never complain.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
ad with another brand truly yeah and that's kind of been like the like she had said that and the internet knew that that partnership she did i believe it was was with truly was like a big part of him trying to get her fired and his favorite thing kyle like every time he gets accused of that is like what are you talking about like how does q score everybody knows how does q score how does q score how does q score and when your reality star like bravo does like um
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
focus groups and testing and they get, you get like a likability score. And if people really like you, that's your Q score. It goes up, it goes down. Having a negative Q score, obviously like sucks, but it doesn't mean that you get fired. Like people need to be disliked. People need villains. So Kyle's flawed, like reason, well, I didn't get her fired. She had a bad Q score.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
So did Lisa Rinna for many years. And like, you're a necessary part of the show.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
He uses that metric like he thinks people don't understand it. So like, well, she had a low Q score. Of course she got fired. Actually, a low Q score is not everybody can have a high Q score. That's a boring show. No, it's a sign of interest. Right, exactly. Controversially, you're a little radioactive. So he loves to use that when it's actually not true.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Welcome back to the toast. Hey, Jax. How you doing?
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And so it's just kind of crazy because the thing he's being accused of with Hannah from years ago is exactly what's happening now with Craig and Spritz. And Craig is not even a cast member on this show.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
So I understand, first of all, Paige being like, don't crawl up my ass for things other people did. Like, that I agree with her completely. Like, I hate when people are mad at you for something somebody you know did. Like, bitch, get off my ass. This isn't me. Especially with how much I fucking do for you and I don't say anything about it. So now that you brought it up, let's talk about it.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
The way we've totally flipped on DUIs, like they're the most despicable thing. And now we're like, well, what were they running from?
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
No, it's so true. When she said, when have you ever supported anything I've done? It's so true. Think about all the things they do. They're writing a book. She has a podcast. She goes on tour. She's a huge Amazon Live contributor. She does a ton of fashion stuff. When have you literally ever even left a nice comment?
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
You don't support, but I have to be over here doing like millions of dollars in free advertising for you and your company just for me to get yelled at for one thing that my friend and boyfriend did that you don't like. She's so justified in being activated. Like, and I need her to go harder.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Yes, there's a lot of complex dynamics. One, Amanda, but two, you know, Kyle being like the OG, um, I think he like, he's not a producer by any, but he definitely has like, if there's a hierarchy, he's at the top of it. He works with production, like on getting people cast. So he has power that other people don't have.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
So you have to like walk this line with Kyle and, you know, being his friend and his adversary while also trying to maintain your job. So for, and I feel like in the beginning, like the work is twins and Steven, they were all trying to say that, but like they all just got fired, you know?
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
But now there are all these other castmates who are like, Paige is not going to get fired. Like she can say whatever the fuck she wants.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
But his sort of, the imbalance of power gives him, room to act certain ways. And that's why people put up with a lot of the shit that he does. Whereas if it was any other regular cast mate, like imagine Danielle and her fashion app.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Coming up page. I can't believe you're doing Amazon live. Like that's how, that's what it is. Right. So why can't she say that? But Kyle can.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
By the way, not that I would ever, because like I barely drive, but if I ever got a DUI, I don't know how I could show my face on this podcast again. You could never show your face again. And I have no plans to drink and drive, but that's also one thing that will guarantee you guys I will never, because I couldn't face the public backlash.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And they're still getting yelled at. Right.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
It's insane. Paige is so justified. Two-faced? You think I'm two-faced? I'm so ready.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
I also love to see Paige and Hannah having each other's back so much because I feel like because of that like power imbalance when Hannah got fired you still have to like walk a certain line because Paige was still trying to keep her job and that's her best friend and she wants to defend her to Hannah.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
I mean to Kyle but then also you know Amanda's her best friend and now I feel like Paige is at a real point where like she can defend her friend so wholeheartedly without giving a fuck because she has nothing to lose.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And that must feel really good for Hannah too. And I love that Hannah is still being talked about on this show. You just know she fucking lives for it. They tried to destroy her life. They almost did. They almost did. And you know she just fucking lives for this shit. That is so funny. It really is. It's kind of a Phoenix rising from the ashes type of story, which you love to see.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
So the big kerfuffle is next week between Kyle and Paige. And let me tell you, Kyle is not a worthy adversary. Like he, Paige is so intellectually, like she's a good fighter.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
She uses her words well. She doesn't fight a lot. So when she does, she's mad. Yeah. He is not a worthy adversary for her.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Yeah, he can barely string two words together. Like I'm so looking forward to the verbal annihilation that will occur.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Yes, we will. Tomorrow is the last episode of the week. We've got Queenie and Weenie. We've got Southern Charm recap. And then the new episodes of Love is Blind, I think, released tomorrow. So we'll have the weekend to watch them. And that will be Monday. I feel like we're watching so much TV these days. It's like that season of the year where a lot of shows are on.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Excuse me, rewind the tapes. I just said tomorrow we have Southern Charm. Oh, you did?
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Yes, you were. And I just want you to know, like, it is now in my brain as a part of our weekly schedule. Like, it won't be forgotten.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Oh, I thought you were saying Paige and Craig, too.
The Toast

Yeah, you guys would stop listening to this podcast, and I actually would agree with you.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
All right, so that's good. One thing you can count on is I'm not going to drink and drive, mostly because I really don't drive much. And if I am in a car, Ben's driving.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
No, no. And I've been like in places where like you're drinking and it's so hard to get home. And like, not that I understand, but like I see how somebody could make such a bad decision because it's not so easy.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
In New York, like it actually would be harder for me to drink and drive myself home than it would be like drink and take a taxi, drink and take an Uber, drink and like literally hail a gypsy cab. Like there's a million ways.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
She did. She's like one of the few people who like, she put me in a tough spot.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Yeah. I'm sorry for Karen. She's literally in jail.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And the reckless abandon, which she acted with, you know, I'm sorry for a lot.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And we're gonna talk about Michelle Trachtenberg, which is so sad, but there's also another developing celebrity death news. I don't know if it's a story, but I did wanna- Gene Hackman.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
A lot of people maybe don't know who Gene Hackman is. And I don't know if I would know. He's a 95 year old actor. So he's like a little bit before our time. But if you guys know Jackie and I, you know how much Gene Hackman means to us because we are obsessed with quoting his line from our favorite movie starring Sigourney Weaver and Jennifer Love Hewitt and Gene Hackman called Heartbreakers.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
And right before he has a heart attack, he says, I feel like vomiting. And we say it. all the time.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Yeah. So just wanted to make a cultural reference, a toasty reference.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
No, this is not. This is the pre-Fast Five banter where it really goes down.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Oh, okay. Well, did Brutus get my... I sent out PR boxes. Did you get it?
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Okay, because I am a brand ambassador for a pet wellness brand called Wagwell, and I actually feel like Bruno is kind of my target demo. He has a very high stress life. He does. And I think between the skincare products, the supplements, the treats that are made with really premium ingredients, I think if Bruno could post about my PR box, I would appreciate that.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Devoid of meaning? I, too, have a lot of things I need to cover. I actually wrote them down in a little note on my phone, okay? One, Summer House. Obviously, we both watched. Not us, like, being the main characters. That's one. Two, I wanted to update everyone. Jackie and I have made the executive decision to upload our theme song to Spotify.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
Yeah, you can let him know. Like, I know that the box was, like, delivered and signed for, and he didn't post about it.

Oh, you know, I meant to call you. I don't know how long ago it was, but you gave me like just in case for a rainy day, if anything ever were to happen, a little bit of sourdough starter. And I thought when I had gestational diabetes that like that would be the time where I started because you said that it's like literally the only thing you can eat.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
So I obviously don't have gestational diabetes. Thank God. Thank God. Thank God. But I did just take a look at the sourdough starter this morning and it's black.
The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025

The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025
No, not at all. I was cleaning out my fridge, curious. And I saw this black liquid. If you're not going to use it. No, it makes me think of you. And it's in one of the little containers. Of baby food jars. Of baby food jars. And it's just like, oh, my family's in my fridge. Hey, guys. I wave to you every time I open the door.

No, Ben and powders, because you know he takes his AG1 every morning. I find little green mountains of powder all over my house. I can't take it, so no.

The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025

The Toast
National Toast Day: Thursday, February 27th, 2025

I mean, this woman literally can't catch a break. I feel like every time I open my Instagram, she's sharing something new happening in her skin cancer journey. She's always posting these pictures of, like, these crazy scars on her back that she had to have different moles removed. Like, they went under the surface and just, like, found different... I think it's called melanoma.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
And so I just thought, like, that was her journey, you know? Yeah. And then to see this on Instagram, I was really shook. Like, seriously? Yeah. Pray for this woman.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
And who gets two different types of cancer? That's seriously so nuts.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
And I feel like she's also been doing a lot in the last six months. Because I feel like I've seen her a lot. She's on Skinny Confidential. She's always making news. Two Ts in a pod. So it's like doing that with brain tumors. Wow.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Yeah. I feel like she's also very into health, right?
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
No, it's really so sad, and she has, like, such young kids. Like, seriously, what a crazy fucking story.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
This story, like... always gives me the biggest pit in my stomach.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Right, and, like, sharing different details from that day. Yeah. Because even though, like, the whole thing happened very publicly and we were all sort of on the journey as it was actively happening and they were looking for her, we still don't really know, like, 100% what went down on the boat.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Mm-hmm, and that's, like, the only witness. Yeah.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Yeah. But they say that about that lake in particular. Like, it's known. So it's not, like, it's actually not that out of the ordinary, but it happened to have been, like, a really bad day.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Right, but a detail he did share that I think people hadn't previously known was that there was, like, an attempt to help. I mean, he was four, but I think he threw a rope.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
And I can only imagine what sort of, like, trauma that does to a child.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
And I'm sure, like, pieces come back. But, like, it's so sad.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Really, really sad. So. And I feel like the dad and him are, like, super close. Like, I really, I wish them the best. Like, I don't want to think about them. Like, I just want them to, like, go be happy and, like, have an amazing life.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Okay, honestly, these details are making me really sad.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Oh, that's even sadder. Oh, my God, like the drifting away. I can't.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Lainey and Duck. Yeah. No, no. I knew she had a man because...
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025

The viral TikTok song. That's her like big breakout hit.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
So the reason they were together, it makes a little bit more sense, but at first I saw them hug, and I was like, excuse me? Kylie hosted an event for Sprinter, like a pop-up where they were just handing out drinks, and there was a stage, and they had Ella Langley perform.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Yeah. It's like Ella Langley is Kylie if she grew up in the South.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Do you think Kylie like knows that song? And when they were just running different people by Kylie, like, oh, within budget, we could get this person to perform this person. Kylie was like, oh yeah, I like that song. Or do you think she has no idea?
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Four by four by you forever. I like the way you say forever like that. Like, I think you need to start saying it like that more. Forever.

The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025

The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Today, I was like, I need you. You're in. You're in. It's giving six men.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Yeah, but I think that we do talk about it every year because when they have the actual induction ceremony, they always have a big performer. That's true. And that's the story. And then we're like, wait, who got inducted that year? And we read the list and we don't know any of the people.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Billy Idol. Oh, okay. I was getting confused. That's not Billy Joel Armstrong.

The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
But his other top songs, Eyes Without a Face, Rebel Yell, I'm not familiar with. I'm sure some of our, you know, boomer toasters, which I'm dying to get in with the boomers. Like, I feel like in this day and age, everybody's like, let's be Gen Z or millennial. And it's like, we're definitely millennial.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
We're not Gen Z. And I think a lot of people in our position would try to be like, you know, targeting the next gen, right? Like Gen Z, start talking. I want more boomers. Okay. I'm just putting it out there. Like, when I go to our next set of live shows, I want everybody in the audience to be geriatric. Well, that's not boomer geriatric.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
No, no, I'm just being, like, I'm being dramatic, like, making a joke about the boomers. Like, they get it. Oh, yeah, okay. I don't know. That's not, like, the way to court them, but okay. No, but I just feel like the boomers, like, are happy people because, like, they all own homes and they're, like, at almost the age of retirement and they just, like...
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
I don't know they don't have the problems that like all these other chronically online folks have like I just want an audience majorly comprised of boomer boomer women so tell your parents to listen to the toast yeah and we can start targeting our content to be like a little bit like skew it a little bit older more stories like this of like the rock and roll hall of fame so to our boomer contingency which I do feel is growing I'm telling you I can feel it um
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Come get your man. I'm sorry to this man. I have no idea who Billy Idol is.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Well, first of all, I thought I would be, like, waltzing in here being like, hey, look at me. I either passed or failed. I didn't get the results. I don't know why I thought it was, like, the driver's test where, like, you just find out immediately if you pass or fail. Yeah. I would have thought it was a few hours. You don't know right now? No, I still don't know. You would know if I knew. Okay.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025

Cindy Lauper. Queen, let her in. What are her odds?
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Anybody who wrote the song Girls Just Wanna Have Fun deserves the world. And I actually, the other day, remember when I was telling you how I was listening to a lot of old Miley Cyrus? I forget that most people our age really know all the lyrics to that song because Miley Cyrus has cover of it, which she really put a lot of respect on. It was super well done. We don't talk about that enough.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
That was really a brilliant move. No, she was doing covers from a young age. She was always destined for covers. Backyard...
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
See, this is where they lose me. Like, Mariah Carey is, like, a hip-hop artist, right? Yeah. This is a rock and roll hall of fame. Like, that's just where I get confused. But let her in.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
That's the other thing. I feel like the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, like, they really want to make sure people deserve it. So much so to the point that, like, they're kind of always dropping the ball.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
I'm unfamiliar, but I know the name. That feels like right, you know. The White Stripes. Like, that's exactly who should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
And I just want to say I've had it up to here. With? The social media misinformation when it comes to women's health.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
To me, like just based on how I perceive the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, which is definitely like incorrectly, the only person on that list who's truly eligible is Cyndi Lauper.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
What about Phish? Everybody loves Phish. I don't know if I would say that they're rock and roll. I feel like it's more like vibes.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
By the way, now that you're recovered from your flu, you have to make your... I know. I was thinking that. I'm like, yeah. Appointment in the studio to lay down tracks for Toast's theme song because, like, my version's ready to go.

So Skims bras and underwear are the best intimates that I've truly ever owned.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
My top drawer is slowly becoming all Skims, and I'm particular about my intimates, especially in the season of my life. My body has changed during pregnancy. It's changing a lot.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
i have different requirements when it comes to my breasts my intimate areas and they're really the unsung heroes of every outfit especially pregnant for a pregnant person and nobody does it like skims so i've shopped from skims for a really long time but i find myself buying like new things from them now i would say once a month because my bras at this point my underwear is just kind of disposable and i need like better ones
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
And my bras are, I'm constantly growing out of them. I have really specific requirements when it comes to the comfort of my bras. And that's why I love Skims. Their Fits Everybody collection make the most amazing bralettes. Like they're super stretchy. They're super comfortable. There's no underwire. There's tons of support.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025

The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
The straps are adjustable, which if you're giving me a garment that doesn't have adjustable straps, like I can't talk to you. That's just like, that's the phase of life I'm currently in. So if you're trying to find the perfect bra for every day, for like around the house, you're pregnant, not pregnant, they have something for everyone at Skims.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025

The big bomb that he dropped on his trailer is that, you know, Paige asked me to get a ring. And he got a ring. Right, and he got a ring. And her big bombshell that we saw in the last... Thank God, I usually turn off the previews. Like, whatever, I'll see you next week. The last three seconds of the preview...
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
She's talking about how she's upset, which we've been talking about all week that he's like not defending her publicly amidst these cheating rumors. When at the end of the day, like she never cheated. He was the one who got caught texting two bitches twice during their relationship. Like, excuse me.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
I saw clips of Ciara on Watch What Happens Live, and then I also watched her in the premiere. And it's like, actually, she's so striking. I don't know of a person I've watched on reality TV who's maybe as beautiful as she is. Like, it's actually...
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Yeah, and I remember hearing that she was going to be joining the cast, and I remember hearing something about her. Was she, like, a nepo baby? What was it? She, like, dated someone famous. Brooklyn Beckham.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
She's perfect for the show. However, I feel like with the intro of her and her friend Bailey, who I feel like is an undiscovered talent, I think she's just taking a little bit more time to, like, come to the surface.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
I do feel like we're really starting to see, like, the two different shows, you know? Like, because they actually, last year, we were always, we've been complaining for the last few years that, like, there's no good, like, single young guys, and they got Wes and Jesse, and they're both good, and there's a new guy coming. And so I feel like this younger...
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
single group is starting to carve out a place for themselves and they leave and the other half of the group stays home, which is fine, but it doesn't feel like this unit.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
I know they broke up, so like whatever, but they should have come back.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Like 20 minutes later, I was, I was like, I felt disgusting. Like I really felt not okay, but whatever. I was like sharing the journey on social media and like the amount of things people were trying to give me anxiety about that aren't real, like actually was starting to piss me off. People were like, you'll have to take the test again. If you drink it through a straw, it doesn't work. Not true.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
10 toes deep for this girl like it's just it's really sweet it's young love and he deserves it and it also seems a little bit like there's going to be beef between lexi and sierra because i think that lexi is coming and like kind of filling a role that sierra filled when she first got there like you know the eligible single gal in the house like all the other single guys are into
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
I agree because there's like being personable and like the funny jolly guy and then there's just inappropriate.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
You know what? I always think when I watch the first episode of Summer House is like how impressive it really is the way they're able to divvy up the rooms. Now, I guess because they're only staying like two nights at a time and then they all go back to their apartments, it's like not the biggest deal.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
But when you think about like rooms on Bravo shows, it's like historically been this like crazy saga. They're all extremely mature about it. Except in the beginning, I remember like it was like every season Amanda and Kyle got the master and it's like, well, why? Yeah.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
They keep putting walls up and just making rooms and throwing beds in rooms.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
There aren't bad rooms. There are just rooms without bathrooms of their own. Right. Those I think are considered the bad rooms.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Yeah. Now let me tell you how much I love Lindsay Hubbard. It's actually crazy. She's so interesting to me. But that also adds another layer. It's really crazy that she's in a house with a 24-year-old. Do you know what I mean? She's birthing new life. Kyle's 42.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
So many of her friends pages in a committed three year relationship and then these 24 year olds are like out till three in the morning like it's just sometimes it can I feel like it'll feel like we're watching two different shows which not necessarily is a bad thing.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Vanderpump Rules junior and senior like where do we go from here yeah but the one thing this has on Vanderpump Rules is that Vanderpump Rules never got a group of young people we were even remotely interested in every person they cast flop after flop after flop meanwhile between Jessie West I would consider Sierra like a bridge kind of like a Sheena well yeah Sierra was saying how much what happens like she's only two years older than Lexi and one year older than Bailey she's 28 Lexi's 26 and Bailey's 27 I guess she's just like so mature she was like yeah but I feel so much older like she just doesn't have that like she could play on both casts she really could
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
This is also our first episode slash season without Danielle, which was nice. I didn't really notice. Yeah. Okay, and so Lindsay showing up, like, I'm sorry. I love her so much, her speech. I know they were trying to make it seem, like, long-winded. Like, they do that editing thing where they just, like, blend the words. But...
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Jackie, the lady at the lab gave me the straw. Like, you think you know more than her? And first of all, how on God's green diddly-dally earth would drinking something through a straw make it different? I don't know. They wouldn't. And then immediately I was like, oh shit, did I do something wrong? And then I'm like, wait, wait. Logic needs to prevail here. I literally drank it.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
I followed exactly what she was saying and when because I knew where it was going like it made total sense she was like eight years ago this seven years ago this six years ago and this year I'm pregnant like I actually thought it was really nice and I loved it and I loved how happy everyone was for it but the whole like room being like I knew it that is such an annoying thing to say yeah especially because there were a lot of rumors like even you had said to me on this show like
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
No, I shouldn't have said that either, by the way. Like, that was wrong of me.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
No, and it was pissing me off, like, hearing people say that. But I thought it was just, like, my blind loyalty to Lindsay. But you're 100% right. It's also, like, it's disrespectful.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
And I need to say, I absolutely love that she told the group without Carl, ran upstairs, did her sponsored post, told the world, Carl found out with the world and then had to waltz into the house the next day. Like it was such a sleigh of a timeline. I loved it so much. And him like coming in, I'm sorry, I can't stand this man.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Like him coming in and like walking out of the house, like needing to talk to producers, like doing therapy talk, like I just don't know how to be in a situation like this.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Lead with your heart, bro. Like, seriously, grow up. You broke up with this woman almost a year ago.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Honestly, this is going to be a crazy thing to say, and I'm just going to say it. You know what? I'm actually not. Sorry. Continue.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
And to be honest, you are still processing a relationship you ended almost a full year later. That's weird. Yeah.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Like, who cares if I drink it with my mouth open or my mouth closed? Like, I was... Okay. Then, and it was making me regret sharing. Like, these bitches were pissing me off.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
And his yeah, his. Oh, right. His confessionals where he's just like being like a therapist. It's genuinely insufferable. Yeah. And I loved how she laid the whole timeline out. Like, that was true Queenie-like behavior. And when she showed everyone her belly and she was wearing the tightest jeans of all time and she had marks on her stomach from the jeans, I wanted to rip those jeans off of her.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
And I saw something so funny today about Gabby. They were like, I love Gabby. She gives executive assistant energy, like true professional. And like, I'm looking forward. It was a tweet. I'm looking forward to like seeing her shine outside of like being Lindsay's executive assistant. But she is thriving in this role.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
I do believe he'll bounce back. He'll be completely fine. But like, this is the first time he's really seeing everyone since the reunion. And like, it's hard not to remember him as that loser on the couch at the reunion. Not like the cool guy he once was. So I'm just having a hard time like shaking that image. Yeah. Weenie Wes watch parties. Weenie Wes. Exactly. Like he, he does just carry this.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
He, we have a chip on our shoulder. He has a weenie.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
It's just good to see the gang back together. It's nice to have a new show to add to the rotation. We'll be adding it to our Thursday recap. So the scheduling for the next couple of weeks goes as such. Mondays, general catch-up. Tuesday, Deer Toasters. Wednesday, Beverly Hills. Thursday, Summer House. Friday, Queenie and Weenie. We are so stacked. Oh, excuse me. And Southern Charm.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Of course, how can I forget? It's on the charm. So we just had, like, a really busy couple of weeks, you know? Tomorrow's episode, Jackie and I are both recording in Miami. Yeah, we rented, like, a fancy studio. Honestly, if the episode ends up getting published, I'll be shocked. Just, like, new studios are so scary. Why are we being so legit? No, new studios are so scary.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
We're just going to be, like, true, like, Joe Rogan energy.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025

4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Then I was sharing like, oh my God, not everybody being so dramatic about this juice when it was actually quite tasty. It tasted like a full sugar Sprite. Like it really was not bad. And then people were being like, well, you know, they say if you would like the taste of the juice, you actually probably do have gestational diabetes. Like bitch. Shut up.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Don't you feel like your voice is different on an early morning podcast?
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
I know, but she was being for real. Thank her for the laugh. I thought for a second, I was like, shit. It does sound, that one sounded, the straw one sounded stupid.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
I kind of like, I like that myth. It can stay. That myth has merit, but then I did look into it. It's completely fabricated and made up.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
No, no, but, well, yeah, but I mean more like, I feel like I'm kind of whispering. Yeah. Romeo is like asleep behind me.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Yes, yes, yes. All's that to say, I still don't know if I passed my glucose test. I had a miserable time doing it both offline and online, and I might stop sharing my journey with these bitches specifically.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
By the way, we're getting into Jay Shetty territory right now.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Oh, he only watched the clip, not the whole episode? Just the clip about that. And you're going to make sure it ends there. It ends with the clip. I don't even have to make sure he doesn't even listen to The Toast. So true.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
By the way, good to know that if everyone's actually listening to an episode of The Toast, we just have to get Cal and Cowherd on The Toast. That would actually be, like, such a good surprise for something. Yeah, and we might have a better chance if you didn't literally say the meanest shit about Callan Cowherd yesterday. I think you called him like... I'll rein it in.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Do you think he's on Cameo? No, he probably makes a lot of money from ESPN. He doesn't need to do that. That's never stopped people.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
It's so true because it's important to remember that Bethany Frankel is or was on Cameo while she was a rich woman, you know?
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
We have a great show, actually. Did you watch Summer House?
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Yeah, that's kind of probably what Hashem would have wanted, don't you think?
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
I have a hard time watching Summer House, but also recapping it without letting my personal biases get in the way of, like, a good recap. Because I seriously, like, I cannot watch that yellow-haired buck on my TV. I hate him so much. 42-year-old in a house with a 24-year-old. Like, it actually is hindering me from doing my job, the hate that I have.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Jax, I think everyone really tuned in today to find out what the hell you did last night. Like after all the hype of yesterday's episode, like where were you?
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
But I'm, like, hyper-focused. Like, everything he does, I have triggers. So, like, my recap would have included a lot of him, even though he contributed zero to the episode.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Yeah, but I don't know those people. Like, I have a personal beef.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Yeah, if it weren't for my personal beef, he's so forgettable. But seriously, I'll never forget you setting up your DJ equipment. You're 42.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Yeah. I hate when that happens. I hate when that happens.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Yeah. Well, actually, while you were on your spiritual journey, I was recovering from my glucose test. Like, it took me all day. I wasn't okay.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
That's where you're headed. Okay, RFK. I want to say one thing about RFK, okay? Okay. You know his whole movement is Make America Healthy Again. Mah-ha.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Okay, thank you. That's what I wanted to say. Mah-ha. I haven't seen it. Every time I see it on social media, people referencing it, like positively or negatively, all I can think of is Amanda Bynes. Mah-ha.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
The Mah-ha movement. I was going to make an Instagram story about it, but it's also a controversial movement, so I didn't want to get involved. I wasn't in the mood for backlash, but I just wanted to make sure I wasn't the only one who saw it and immediately thought of Amanda Bynes. Riffk. What? Oh, Riffk, yes.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
It sounded like you were about to tell me something about your religious event last night, like a girl named Riffka. That's what I thought you were saying.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Riffkjer, yeah. Riffkjer in the mirror handful. We should rage-bait people today and make that the title.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Thursday. It's Thursday. Jax and I are doing a super early morning recording. It's kind of giving the hustle never sleeps.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
So I didn't know that that was a thing, but Shannon texted me. She was like, good luck at your glucose test. Like, she's like, are you, and Jack's like so crunchy that you bring your own juice. And I'm like, wait, I hadn't even heard of it. I'm like, that's another level of crunchiness that I haven't even heard of. Jackie has never brought that up to me. I did not know that.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
I, while I didn't enjoy the test, I'm going to trust the test. And I have no regrets, even though I'm definitely like, I feel like I drank toxic waste. Like that's how heavy and thick it was.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
No, and sometimes like you could drink it and it's inconclusive. That to me would be the worst result if I have to do the longer test.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Yeah. When you make your own, like seriously, like you make it in the kitchen. I don't.
The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
Rifgarade. Rifgarade. All right, well, we have a lot to do today. I think we should dive into. The Fast Five Stories that you need to know. Fast Five stories that you need to know are brought to you by State Farm. So when you get a new car, a new home, the first thing you might find yourself saying is literally what? How is this real? What is happening, Normani? What's happening? Literally.

The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025
And also when you need ways to get help, State Farm gives you a ton of options there too. So depending on what type of swirly you are, perhaps you're very, you know, high-tech IT department girly who loves to do everything on her phone, very turdy-coated?

The Toast
4x4xU Furever: Thursday, February 13th, 2025

No matter what kind of toaster you are, State Farm lets you do things your way. So when you need help protecting the things that matter most, remember to sing it like Jax and Claude do. Hit it, Jax.

The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Maybe they were coming from a meal or something. Maybe. And the other girl was like, yeah, I was really burnt. And at first I like my heart stopped. I'm like, oh, my God, am I about to like notice people talking shit about me in real life?
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Because, you know, sometimes you hear things that are not meant for your ears. Yeah.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
And I'm like, oh, my God, what are they going to say? Yeah, that chubby one is so annoying. Like, I didn't know what they were going to say. I actually wanted to cross. I wanted to cross the street like. And then I realized they probably don't listen to the podcast. Not everything is about me. And the word toast does exist in other universes besides my own.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
But but I am actually going to and maybe I'll buy another pair because I love these sunglasses. But I am going to leave them here in the studio on the table next to my microphone, because while we had so much fun and of course, you can't wear sunglasses forever. It's not it's not feasible. I do feel like these sunglasses gave me like a sense of bravery. I haven't had it a really long time.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
So they were just complaining about burnt toast. Yeah, I think they just came from brunch. It was like a Sunday at one. OK, maybe they were like recapping the meal, but they still like this show. Hopefully. Well, I don't even know if they listened to it, but, and I looked so ugly. Not to make everything about us. Well, it's hard not to when things like that happen. Okay.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
And something I've noticed. I definitely have given up a little bit on my forward-facing looks when it comes to just random things. I don't have so much energy these days, so I'll get dressed for the toast, and that's pretty much it. If me and Ben go out to lunch, I can't.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Wow, Trini, you look terrible. I'm letting my skin breathe. Skin's breathing. Um, and the last couple of times I've like run into toasters, they're like, oh my God, I didn't recognize you. I recognize Ben. And like, they meant it very harmlessly. They're like, oh, oh my God. I'm like, I saw BSC and I knew it was you guys. I'm like, oh, what not to say? Oh, so you're a fucking bitch. Yeah. Yeah.
The Toast

The Toast

She will have to prove to her skeptical brothers, the board, and the larger sports community that she was the right choice for this job, especially in the unpredictable male-dominated world of sports. She may not have been part of the original playbook, but as the skeptics will soon learn, she's calling the shots now, like it or not. It's really fun, easy to binge. I have to say, like...

Best of all, they take the hassle out of baking since all of their items bake from frozen in 25 minutes or less with no mess or clean up. This is a company made for me. I discovered it from Olivia Ashtray when she like first started getting into sourdough. She used to like, you know, not make it from scratch and it was so good because she was baking from frozen from wild grain.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Also, I recently entered the baking space. A lot of people don't know that. I made a muffin. Yeah. And it was like one of the hardest things I've ever done. And there were so many dishes and I needed so many ingredients and it was just really hard. So the concept of buying like fresh baked wares that you also bake yourself, it's genius. I love it. It's so smart.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
And I feel like we were talking about it because it's a great entry for a lot of people into sourdough. Like if you want to be a part of that lifestyle, but you don't – necessarily have the time or the resources, because it is a full-time job, as Jackie can tell you. Wildgrain is such a great resource for anybody who's like, you know, starting to sniff around. Maybe they're sourdough curious.

I was just watching this documentary and I didn't finish it because it wasn't very good. But it was about like how in the 70s, this guy was like living in Cleveland as like he worked at like a factory or whatever. Turns out he was like this enormous Nazi. And when they brought, what were those trials called in Israel? The Nuremberg trials? Nuremberg trials, yes.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
So a lot of people don't know this, but many years after the war, when Israel became the Jewish homeland and they created their own government and stuff, they hosted the Nuremberg Trials. Because there were all these low-key Nazis who, after the war, went on to live lives and have jobs without going to jail for killing. So they would like, you know, very famous ones, Adolf Eichmann, right?
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
He did a Nuremberg trial. He had to sit in a glass box because somebody was like totally going to shoot him. So this guy living in Cleveland was like this huge, like famous Nazi. They end up figuring it out. He gets extradited to Israel. And the crazy thing about that is like even those Nazis had lawyers, right? That was the point of the story. Excuse me. I got a little off track.
The Toast

Now, I feel like we all jumped the gun when we heard this. It's like, oh my God, he knows all the terrible things and he doesn't want to be a part of it anymore. Whereas it's probably something a little bit more... like administrative than that. Like a lot of times like a lawyer will have to recuse themselves because of like a conflict of interest with another client. Like, I don't know.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
I feel like it's more something like that than a big scandal.

The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
I'm not gonna be wearing them full time. And also people don't realize kind of the challenges that come with wearing sunglasses indoors for like 75 minutes. It kind of gives you a migraine, especially when you're wearing a slick back bun and headphones, like it's just a lot of pressure on your temples. So I did what I had to do to feel- Your body is a temple. To feel my best.

Of course, sometimes I'll have the busiest day and I'm like, I should record a day in the life. Yeah, of course. People wouldn't believe what I do. Not every day is like that.

And you know that like, she has a whole team of people whose job it is to like source the footage and the sounds and everything.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
And it's like, how did we get with this piece of content with how many people who had to look at this? And that's how I feel a little bit about Megan. It's like, This instead of Instagram stories cost you $100,000, 1,000%, based on salaries and agencies and contracts.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
See, I think that it's a flop and she had all these people working on it. Like there's no way she launched a huge social media campaign for like after years, like she's finally kind of coming back. There's no way she didn't hire the best of every agency you possibly could when it comes to marketing, social media management, content creators.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025

I am very particular about my intimates. I always have been, but I have definitely new needs. My breasts grow probably one size every month. So I'm constantly churning out new bras, but I also can't just be wearing any regular bra. I need really comfortable bras. I'm not wearing underwire right now. Same with my underwear. My underwear is just not to overshare, like kind of become disposable.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
and staying on top of all of the different needs. Now everybody has different things. I was a big Skims shopper before I got pregnant and I found it really helpful because they have tons of different bras for all different boob sizes. And they carry, I think like 60 bra sizes because half the key to finding a bra that fits is literally getting the right size.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
And so they just have it really, they crush it at Skims. Everything now, if I need something, whether it's like pajamas or undergarments, and I know that Skims makes it, like I'll just automatically go to Skims because they're one of like my most trusted brands. And one of my favorite bras and like the entire collection is the Fits Everybody collection. I wear a lot of the bralettes.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
And five minutes went by. Yeah, it's thick. It's dense. Like it's dreadful. I'm enjoying it.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
They're fabulous. They fit everybody. They're super comfortable, but they're still like really supportive. A lot of the bralettes have adjustable straps, which for me is huge. So you can shop the best intimates at Skims, including that Fits Everybody collection and more at Skims.com and the New York flagship store on Fifth Avenue.

What can I say except you're welcome.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
By the way, this is so amazing. What? One, because I could totally see it. And I had seen somebody saying in a tweet that the dad of that family gives Thomas Ravenel energy. Like I saw that a couple of, like maybe a week ago. And I was like, oh my God, totally. The accent is exactly the same. So this being true is so crazy to the person who tweeted that.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Well, Jackie, just wait because like now TikTok has entered the chat. Like there's a TikTok that goes viral. in real time about one of the castmates and they talk about it.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
But also I feel like this is not the first time where celebrities and actors have admitted like Bravo's influence. Was it Grace Van Patten who was like, yeah, we all watched Vanderpump Rules or I modeled my character off of like Toxic Stassi era. Like- They are literally the blueprint for culture.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Yeah, and I saw Lucius Malfoy, the dad, also talking about his accent because he, I think, is British. And he has such a really, he's like, it's not just a Southern accent. They were told to do like North Carolina or something. So I bet they watched some Southern charm.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
So when I think of the dad, yes, I definitely see him as a Thomas. Yeah. When I think of the mom, she kind of gives Patricia a little bit. And she is by far the best character. She is totally good. If someone's going to be nominated for an Emmy or whatever next season, it'll be her. She's so funny. The kids, I'm trying to think.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Honestly, the older son is like a little Shep, which sounds insulting to Shep.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
The daughter doesn't remind me of anyone.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
So it's a good season? Do you take back what you said? No, no, it's not a good season. And this is what it really boils down to. This isn't spoiling anything. But you're allowed to spoil. At the end of the day, No, I'm saying, but I'll save all the spoilers. So like, it'll be in the timestamp. So I'm not spoiling anything right now.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Yeah, that must be like the coolest feeling too. Like you're Craig and you open up People Magazine and you see this. Like the biggest show in the world and they're modeling themselves after you. Yeah. And the episode was like fine. The thing is with White Lotus is... In order to really like enjoy it, you have to watch the whole season.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
So like episode by episode, it's not, it's not like a fun show to watch week to week.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
How's being home? I really miss you. I really miss our Pargy studio. I miss being near the beach, but it's been so nice to be in my own bed. I can't lie. Like you could take me to the most magical of places, like a free trip where I have a butler. Like it could be the best trip in the world, but that trip doesn't have my bed. And at some point I'm going to want to go home, you know?
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Okay, we need to talk about the three women. The three women are... Because let me tell you how fucking real that was. At first, when, like, the two girls, Leslie Bibb and Bridget Moynihan, were talking about the third, I'm like, that's so real. There's always somebody who's, like, a third. And in the first episode, too, they were also, like, leaving her out.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
But then it turns out that it's just, like, one of those really toxic friend groups where, like, you're just talking shit about the other person. About whoever's not in the room. Right. And I'm like, that's also so real. But that girl, who we thought was, like, the initial... And don't ask me anybody's name in this show.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
The one who we thought was like the big time loser, but then like also ended up being like a little villainy about Bridget Moynihan. Like I do think she's the toxic one in the friend group, even though it's like a toxic friend group period.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Yeah. And are the other two going to start talking about Leslie Bibb or is Leslie Bibb kind of like the.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Yeah. And her chicken and her beans. No, not only that, like the Parker Posey thing. Why would you remember spending the weekend with somebody 10 years ago?
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
And also Parker Posey's on drugs. So that's why she was weird.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
But at the end of the day, this season, they can do what they want. You know, they can try as they may. But it is inherently bad because this is an extremely uncool, uninteresting group of people. And that's really like you can only do so much with editing or whatever with just a group of really, really regular people. Like there's nothing – honestly, Joey is a character. Like he's special.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Yeah. Was it not 10 years ago?
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
So I saw a theory that you maybe don't understand because you didn't watch the second season. But Portia, you know that actress Haley Joel Richardson? Who's Portia? So last season, she played Jennifer Coolidge's like personal assistant. I think she gets like fired, whatever. She's that actress, Haley Joel Richardson, the ones who's obsessed with the Jonas Brothers. You know her.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
obsessed with you do just like look her up you know her just okay but you can continue with your so a lot of people think she looks a lot like the friend and the three the three friend groups who's staying outside is that Ellie You mean the daughter? Yes, and so they're talking about her daughter who's kind of troubled.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
People think that that... I saw a theory on TikTok that that's Portia, the daughter.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Right, right, right. There's also like a theory going around that... This. That theory doesn't work for me.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Okay. That this Thailand episode is like happening at the same time as season two. Like they're in the same exact time period. What about Greg? Well, Greg leaves. When? Halfway through Italy. Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah. I guess all these theories don't make sense. Maybe I should stop getting my information from TikTok. That's the thing. We're just kind of desperately seeking meaning here.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
And we didn't even talk about how Mook, who is so gorgeous I'm obsessed with, is from Blackpink. Do you know that?
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
The gorgeous girl who works at the hotel.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
She's a member of Blackpink.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Her name is Mook, M-O-O-K, in the show.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
She's kind of like the biggest one, no?
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
She's also a star. And I love that boy. And if she doesn't make that boy her husband, I'm going to kill her.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Yeah. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Yeah. I didn't get that on my own.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
There is no 5k. Like there is no fight. There's no fight. No, the guard is so sweet. Like I love him so much. There are also some theories that say Lisa from Blackpink is like evil and like a villain here too, but I don't see it.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Valentin, that he's in, oh, I didn't realize that that was obvious, that he was in on it.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Another theory is that Greg's girlfriend, like that cool girl who lives up there, was also in on the robbery because she's like conveniently in the dressing room the whole time.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Or if she knew the robbery was happening, why would she leave the dressing room? Like it's safe.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
I don't know what the theory on the Game of Thrones actress and the balding man is, but they are so my least favorite. They're so boring.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Like, I just have questions. No answers. Yeah.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Now, we didn't talk a lot about this last week, and I meant to. And then this week, they kind of pulled back on it a little bit. The Radcliffe siblings wanting to fuck one another. There's a weirdness there. Patrick Schwarzenegger jerking off in front of the little brother. Both the older siblings kind of being obsessed with getting the younger sibling to be their friend.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
I've never met anyone like him. Other than that, like they're all – it's like put them in a lineup. I couldn't – they look alike. They act alike. They're just very regular.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
They're trying to insinuate something.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Even when he woke up and the tushy was there.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
No, not only that. And, like, I didn't grow up with any brothers, so I don't know, like, what's appropriate. But I know that, like, talking to your sister about, like, her losing her virginity is fucking weird and disgusting. And I was, like, can we stop?
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
But that hammock in the ocean, that looked amazing. I need the Boca Beach Club to get one of those. Yeah. It looked so party.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
So funny. Me and Ben were talking about, because we just got back from a hotel, and we were like, Ben was like, that place looks amazing. I'm like, really? It kind of looks horrible. It's not really a hotel. It's like this wellness thing, but it also has a beach. And Ben was like, actually, yeah, I can imagine having a really nice day there, and that's about it. Imagine spending a week there. Yeah.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Right, it's the first time that like the show is focused on a property that's like not just like a, you know, a hotel for rich people. It's like a wellness therapy retreat. Who gives a fuck?
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
And there's only so far we can go.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Me too. I'm rooting for him.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Like he did his friend a favor and his friend like sold him down the river.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
No, I know. I, that's not even what I feel bad about. Like he seems so stressed and he's like the biggest pit. Like that's the worst feeling. Like I feel sad for him that he's feeling that.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Right. He has the advantage of being out of the country. Now, Love is Blind. Can we transition for a minute into the Love is Blind recap? Oh, yeah. So there are now nine episodes out. We get six pods episodes, one and a half Honduras episodes. And now we're back in where they live, Minnesota, where they've moved into apartments together. They're starting to meet families.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Yes, no, no, not right now.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
I wanted to talk about something I actually meant to get your opinion on because I, of course, remember you talking about this when you were at my stage of life and I wasn't listening. Okay. But my lease is up. On your car? Yeah, in like two, three months. Oh my God, you need a Jerry. I fear I must- Do you have a Jerry? No, I fear I must transition to somewhat of like a mom car, you know?
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Now, so many crazy weird things happened. Let's go couple by couple. Jackie Taylor and Daniel Short King and Christmas Girl. And Instagram.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Okay, so you haven't seen it. You haven't seen it.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Oh my God. Okay. So they leave the pods and they're clearly like in a holding space. They're at a hotel. We wouldn't have filmed ever at this hotel. They haven't gone to Honduras yet, but they're just like waiting there. And Taylor's like, it like came to me like where I know him from. He followed me on Instagram.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
And so she tells producers and they like set up this filming situation where she like ambushes him and like in this like conference room in a hotel. And she's like, you felt so familiar to me and I couldn't figure it out.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
But like you followed me on Instagram and I remember that I looked at your profile and there was a picture of you sitting in front of a Christmas tree with like a drink in your hand. Like I just remember it. And do you have a picture like that on your Instagram? He was like, maybe, I don't know. Like I have a picture of me like sitting in front of a fireplace.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Like she was like looking for this one specific photo. Then She's like, there was so much about me in my bio that you could have gleaned. That I'm a nurse, that I like Taco Bell, and that I love Christmas. It's like, okay, well, that's a lot of information for your bio, but sure.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
So she was basically implying that he took these little nuggets about her and made them his whole personality because they're both obsessed with Christmas.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
So she just keeps asking him, like, did you ever follow me on Instagram? Maybe you unfollowed me. And do you have this picture of yourself on your Instagram? And it's like, well, if she just had her fucking phone, we could figure this out. 20 minutes later, a producer's like, Taylor, we're willing to give you back your phone. Do you want it? Or do you want to just believe Daniel at face value?
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
She's like, give me my phone. So she gets her phone and she admits, which is so embarrassing that she has like that unfollow app where you can see who unfollowed you because. Yeah. Because like he obviously doesn't follow her right now, but he probably did. So we sit there in dead silence.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
No, no, but it's possible that he followed and unfollowed her before going into the pods. Why would he, how would he know she's going on the pods? Jackie, the whole thing made no fucking sense. Just wait, okay? I'm listening. And by the way, he's acting so guilty. Like, she's like, if I open my phone and like see you there on that unfollow app, like, he's like, well, Mike.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
She's like, well. He's like, well, you might. Like, I don't remember. I don't know what you're talking about. He kept saying, I don't remember. I don't remember. Like, so guilty, right? Yeah, but like, I guess he probably just follows a lot of random girls and doesn't want to cop to that.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Jackie, they make us watch in silence and she scrolls through all the people who have unfollowed her over the years. And she actually makes a joke being like, damn, I lost a lot of followers. Scrolling, scrolling, scrolling, only for her to not find him there. And that's it. That's the whole scandal. I don't know if it comes back, but now I'm at episode nine and it's been buried. Wait, what?
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Are they still together? Yeah. Meeting the parents. It's going really well. It wasn't a thing.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Your car is not not a mom car. My car is an SUV, which makes me think it's like a mom car. But and I like to think I'm the type of like mom who's going to drive a Range Rover. But like, let's be real. Like I need a I need a mom car.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
So then they end up like actually being a cute couple. His parents are like so in love with her. They love it so much. Her parents hate this whole thing, but still agree to be on camera. The parents actually both sets of parents get together. It ends up like being fine. I actually think like they have a shot in hell. I do. Yeah. Next couple I want to talk about is Virginia and ibuprofen.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
I actually really like them. I think that they had good chemistry and they have a good time in Honduras. But a lot of their storyline is now about money. She's a little bit older. She does pretty well. She has like a house and she's just been talking about a prenup and he doesn't really object to it. She's just like, listen, like, why not? There's literally no downside.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
And then when his parents like hear about it, they're definitely like weirded out by it. Because I hate when people are like, well, why are you quitting this marriage before it even starts? Like, shut up. Like, I just fucking hate that. Like, a prenup is like, especially like for a woman of a certain age who's like built up a life for herself. And especially getting married in this way.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Like, it's a gamble. Of course. It's a gamble. Of course it is. Um, so they're like quiet. I don't know if they have like the great love of our lives. Like I, I don't think so, but I could like, there's, there don't give me any red flags. They're just like boring.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Yeah. Right. Right. And then there's Joey and Monica who like are, you can't not notice they are beaming with personality. All they do is laugh and giggle the sock bin, the sock bin. She tells this story that, um,
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
like one of the weird it's so funny every family like has their thing right like and like her family's thing is that like growing up like how you know you go into your room you have a drawer for your undies and socks like her family didn't have individual like drawers for socks they had this one laundry basket like full of socks and when you needed socks he would just like go to the sock bin you know okay he can't get over it he can't get over how weird this is
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
He thinks it's the craziest thing ever. They talk about it all the time. When he goes to her house to meet her parents, he requires, he says, I need you to see the sock bin. It's seriously so funny. So they're having like a lot of fun and like all is good. But there is something weird that goes on with Monica's family. Monica has a sister.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
So it's Monica's parents, Monica, Monica's sister and Monica's sister's boyfriend. And they share that like Monica's sister's boyfriend and her met because he actually was talking to Monica. And then Monica was like, I actually think you would like my sister. So they didn't like date or fuck, but like they were, you know, they met romantically.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
It was, yeah, it actually made Monica look really good. Yeah. Yeah. but it becomes very clear that there's like, like a weird relationship between her and her sister. Like the sister feels threatened or, and like, you know, Monica would be getting married now before the sister. And Joey actually says, cause the sister, the sister had a problem with Joey, you know, like, I don't know.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Heist and Fury to pick that thing up. It was the perfect car for like this very cool phase of my life, you know? But I'm becoming different. Now, I'm struggling because like this is a car, like obviously like, you know, I'm going to transport my family and it has to be safe. It has to be efficient. But I'm still me, you know? I'm still going to pull up to the club in this car, you know?
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
I don't think he's good for you or whatever. And it's like, there's nothing wrong with him, you know? So they're recapping afterwards. And Monica's like, yeah, she just like always has problems with people I bring home. Like don't take it personally. Yeah. And he's like asking more about that. And he just very boldly was like, do you think your sister's jealous of you? And like she so is.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Like it was so – he kind of diagnosed this family perfectly. And it was very brave. And Monica was like, oh, I don't know. I never thought about it that way. Like maybe because of the weirdness with the boyfriend.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Yeah. Like what does she look like? Monica's prettier than her too. Okay. So Joey just sort of like said something extremely brave. Yeah. But also 100% correct because it was such a weird vibe. And Monica's so like really very lovely girl, very positive, laughing. There was like a weird vibe with the sister. And we're like, what's going on? And then Joey said it. I'm like, oh, yeah, that's it.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Especially because her boyfriend used to like Monica. It's weird. Yeah. But then in the trailer, it seems like Joey stops being so into Monica. Like right now they're in a good place, but she just, in the trailer, she's like, I feel like I like him more than me.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Like, yeah, I'll be fine. Fine. Fine. That makes it. Yeah. Because I actually think that they're a good couple. And they like actually make me and Ben laugh. Like they're really sweet with one another. And they're one of the few couples that had sex. So I'm going to cut to Dave and Lauren next. And we'll get into like their whole thing. That's like the arsehole and the nurse.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Yeah, the arsehole and the nurse. So when they're in Honduras, they get together one time with the whole group. Dave and Lauren? Yeah, everyone. No, the whole group gets together once. Have we moved on? Yeah, I'm moving on now. Consider us moved on. So Dave, when they get together, Dave has told us, I hate that they wake up after the first night and they don't just tell us if they had sex or not.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Like, I'm sorry. I know it's like invasive, but you should have to tell us. Like, I'm curious. They don't. And me and Ben are like guessing, you know, you can tell a little bit. Dave, when they all get together, goes up to every single person and is like, you fucking? There's always that guy. I really appreciate it. There's always that guy. I was curious. I would never do it.

The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Virginia did not. Those are all the couples, right? No. Oh, Shorty. They did not. Because they were working through, like, that weird Instagram thing. Like, even though after that, she should have just, like, you know, to talk about something else, she should have just started fucking so that he would forget that weird thing she did. Shorty.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
So, at first, I'm, like, liking Dave because I feel like maybe he was misunderstood a little bit in the pods because he was being, like... An arse. And then he was being really sweet with Lauren about like, you know, whenever you're ready to have sex, like take your time. Like he was being very patient.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
But then they get back to Minneapolis and things immediately go wrong because it turns out that like before the trip, excuse me, before the pods, Lauren was like seeing a guy like very casually, like probably just fucking, you know? And I think they hung out like maybe a week before she left for the pods. And this guy is actually kind of connected to Dave and his friends.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
So Dave's friends, they're like mutual friends. It's a small town. I love this. Dave's friends tell Dave being like, yo. And I love that for the teacher. Yeah. Right. Like you don't think the teacher had it in her. So Dave's friends are like, Lauren is like seeing someone. They're really trying to make it nefarious. And so Lauren's like, back is up against the wall.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
She's like kind of being forced to explain this. Like she just was having sex. And she does. She was like, okay. Yeah. Like we hung out like a couple of times. He actually used to date this like girl that we worked with. Um, Like we got ice cream. Like she was just like forced to share like sort of uncomfortable parts of this thing.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Like nobody wants to admit that they were just like fucking some guy. And he is just like so disturbed by it. He can't get over it. And he doesn't believe her. He believes his friends who are saying like she was in a full blown relationship with this grifter before the trip and wanted to become famous. And she's like literally having to defend herself so hard.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
And it just doesn't go away because he's like acting weird for like a whole week. And he's like, it's this thing with the guy. I can't. And the guy lives in the building that they just moved into. What?
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
it's like it's this huge building and it's a small town so it's like she's they're supposed to like you know get get their friends and family together but like it gets canceled because like they just keep fighting about it and it's becoming very clear because there's nothing here it's so she's not like that you can tell she's it's so nothing but he doesn't stop he's using it as an excuse Yeah.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
And he's like, well, my sister knows about it now. And he's been like obsessed with his sister the whole fucking time.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Yeah. We also use tongue. Like they're seriously like something weird going on with the sister. And then when the sister hears, the sister's already skeptical about this whole process and about Lauren in general, but the sister hears this rumor about.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Right. And once the sister hears about this big scandal, it's like setting them back so much. And it's like, Lauren is really well-meaning and he is not. And it's actually painful to watch her like defend herself so hard and just be like not believed. And he's like, I don't, he literally will say, I don't believe you. He's like, I believe my friends.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
So they need to break up immediately. In this previews, Molly comes and, you know. He sees Molly. Yeah, he sees Molly. A lot of theories that like he looked up Molly on Instagram. But I don't think that Lauren and Molly are so different looking that you would look and be like, oh, I got to leave Lauren to get to Molly. They're both very pretty girls.

And he actually said like the Mason thing had a lot to do with it.
The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
Like she just was so high and mighty and like really weird about it. And she didn't like how he treated how she treated Mason in that moment. Wait, I don't feel like she did that. Oh, I thought she did. I thought she was being really weird with Mason being like, you played two girls. You don't even like him.

The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025

The Toast
Social Causes, Ibuprofen & Shawty: Monday, February 24th, 2025
She's really trying to straddle the line between like not invalidating this other woman's experience while also holding space for like, it could be a lie.

But also anytime I've ever watched the Chiefs, they're like annoyingly good. It's like it doesn't even matter what the score is. They're just like going to get it done. So it wasn't like particularly like freaked until at the half.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Like, oh no, maybe right when they came back from the half, the Eagles scored again. And then it was 24 to zero. At some point you just get to a deficit that's so big. Like there's not enough time in the game for you to come back from. And we were slowly approaching that. And I was like, there's just, I couldn't believe it. I'm like, there's no way. They're trying to be the greatest in the league.

I don't know how many times like Travis has to, I mean, not Travis, Patrick had to like tiptoe and just to get away. Your job is, and I was watching and I'm like, they're just standing there. They were really, everybody stunk though. Like I can't, I don't even want to just blame them.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Like Travis was bad. All the people who were supposed to catch were bad, but the people who were supposed to protect, that's kind of like the first line of defense. They were really sticking it up.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
And I saw the most interesting TikTok. Because we know that celebrities spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on their sweets and planes. But this person was just going around to people at the Super Bowl, the actual game, and just asking them how much they spent on tickets. And I had seen that the average price of the ticket last night was around $5,000.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
But just seeing regular folk being interviewed, people being like, we spent $8,000 per ticket. nobody spent less than $5,000 on a ticket in this video that I saw. And so, and that's why there were a lot of Eagles fans there because this is the third time. It's actually the, Six time? The Chiefs have been. The Chiefs have been.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
So it's not like uncommon for a Chiefs fan to get to go to the Super Bowl. I think they know they'll have an opportunity in the next couple of years. But you know, with other teams, it's not always the case. You have good years, you have bad years. And so most of the, and you could tell just by like the cheers and the boos that most people in the crowd were Eagles fans.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Yeah, it was really bad. But everybody kept, because, you know, the commentators were, like, you know, some guy and Tom Brady. And there's, like, a famous Super Bowl where Tom Brady came back to beat the Falcons.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Yeah. Right. So everybody keeps, Ben was like, don't worry, Tom Brady came back. And they keep saying, you know, Patrick is the second coming of Tom Brady. So it was like, oh, yeah, so it's possible. And I just figured, like, at some point it would happen. And it became increasingly clear as the night went on. Like it wasn't happening.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
And that'll be a part of the story. So we don't want to, you know.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Yeah. Them pouring the Gatorade on Nick Santini. What's his name? Yeah. The great Santini. Carla's dad.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
give it all prematurely ejaculate right yeah we'll get into it shortly because I feel like that's the big news of the weekend but how is your weekend otherwise well there actually is some other big news of the week for me um I just I need to get everyone prepared to be sick of me because in a couple of days I am taking my glucose test and I just feel like up until that point like I will not stop talking about it you're gonna make the glucose test your personality
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Nick Sirianni. Sirianni, yes. Sounds like a character from Josie Shore. There was like four minutes left. Now, of course, the Chiefs really couldn't have won, but it wasn't impossible. And actually, when they got the ball back, Travis on his first down, not Travis, excuse me, Patrick on his first down, threw a touchdown. Now, of course, it was just a small dent in the lead, but you never know.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I just thought it was really crazy that they were doing the Gatorade already. Yeah.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
A bunch of zeros. So from and I like to watch like I don't have a particular stake in the game last night. Obviously, like the Taylor of it all is super interesting, but I don't care like who won. So I just wanted to be entertained. And it was so boring. The game like I like this is supposed to be the two greats. And I couldn't help but think, you know, wouldn't have lost so badly to the Eagles.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
The Bills. The Bills. I know Josh Allen was watching that game being like, this is bullshit. Like, let me give the people what they want. I'm sorry. You have a duty to the American people to keep us entertained at the Super Bowl. I don't care if you win or lose. Your job is to keep us on the edge of our seats.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
And also, I can't help but thinking about the advertisers who definitely pay more for commercials in the fourth quarter. Yeah. Because... Usually it's the most important part of the game. And I can't even imagine how many people turned off the TV in the fourth quarter. Like, because it was so, it was late. It's a Sunday night. Like people have to go to work.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
It's, it was useless to watch at some point.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Although, did you know the first Super Bowl ever, do you know how much a commercial went for? I feel like we've done this, but no, tell me. They showed it on TV last night. They were showing like average price of a ticket compared to, and it was like $20 versus $8,000. And last night, commercials went for $8 million. And the first Super Bowl ever, they went for $40,000. Oh, wow.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
50 years ago. So like the 60s. So next year will be Super Bowl LX. Yeah. Yeah, I was trying to figure out, like, with the numbers. I so don't understand Roman numerals, and I don't understand the Super Bowl's obsession with using them in their logos.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
It will, because I think as a country, like, intellectually, we can no longer handle Roman numerals. Which is just so sad. Yes, it's a state, but it's also, it's kind of like the metric system. Like, we don't really use them. Why are... It is the only time in, I guess like if I meet someone whose name is like Chad III, yeah, I would use.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
But like it is the only time in my year where I'm even thinking of Roman numerals.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
It's a challenge. It's an annual challenge for the American people.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
It was dreadful. See, and it's also just kind of crazy to see Travis, Patty and Taylor to see them lose. Like they don't lose often. And when they have lost, it's been kind of inconsequential.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Well, because, okay, I actually forgot to tell you this. I found myself in a little bit of like TikTok drama a couple of weeks ago where I made a TikTok when I got back from the doctor and I had told Dr. Fox, Dr. Fox had told me that my next appointment would be my glucose test. And so I was just like learning about glucose and he was really like,
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
So it was just kind of, like seeing a teacher out of school, like felt weird to see them be big losers. Even Travis's like post-game interview where he's so upset in his sparkly shirt. And he was like, you know, we can't just blame the O line. It was everyone. I'm like, ew, I kind of got the ick. Like I wonder if Taylor did too.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I don't know, and we got no Taylor footage because of it. Because every time Travis does something, good or bad, they show Taylor. And he wasn't doing anything, good or bad. Except for those two big drops in the beginning. I was like, oh, yikes. But he's kind of messy, but he always pulls it through. That's the thing. I wasn't worried. They always pull it together.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I'm sure Taylor wasn't worried either. But then it just became increasingly clear. I did find her cast and crew in the suite to be quite interesting. Obviously, her parents were there. The Kelseys were there. Taylor was there.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Haim who've kind of been like laying low I feel like um she hasn't called on them in a while yeah but they're always there for her yeah they're like they're loyal and steadfast she also brought ice spice which was so random and I thought oh I guess they are still friends although a lot of people had pointed out to me that she was at the last Super Bowl that Travis won and Taylor might have been like superstitious trying to like recreate wasn't like there
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
And by the way, a lot of people were there with her. Kara. Kelly Teller. Oh, were they together at all this weekend? No. So Kelly Teller was at the Super Bowl. Her and Miles are huge Eagles fans, which makes sense. Like maybe this time they wouldn't be in the same suite, but like they were not together at all. And actually- I saw some discourse about this online.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Kelly and Miles were hanging out with Zach Bryan, which obviously is like not a big deal. Zach Bryan's a huge Eagles fan too. But Zach Bryan like famously like wrote that nasty tweet about Kanye being better than Taylor. Like if that's your friend. So like, I'm sorry, these two are not friends. You can't convince me. Like they're not. That's so crazy. I know. That's so crazy.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I would love to know what happened. Yeah, me too. Because sometimes you just like fall out of love with people. That's fine. Like, you know, you get like, you know, steadfast in a friendship.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
You know, you could try different things, but you either have it or you don't. Nothing you could do now. It's just you're either born with it or you're not. It's not like a big deal. So I made like a funny TikTok because it's gestational diabetes. So I made a TikTok being like, I'm taking my glucose text next week. Like it's only fruit and seltzer from here on out, girls. And.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
No, I feel like it happened really organically. Like she was a big fan and then they coordinated miles being in the, um, I bet you think about me music video. And that was sort of like the, the, the catalyst, if you will. And then it was like a year where they were just inseparable.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Like the ring she bought. Remember it was Taylor's day to the Emmys. Yeah. It was like burning fast and bright. And that was it. Yeah. That's really weird. Yeah. And then with the Zach Bryan thing, it makes me think that something happened because even if you're not friendly with someone, I feel like it was a move.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Well, so I was a guest, but also I thought this about a lot of the suites because I was seeing like a lot of footage of people. Something about the specific arena. I know it's an indoor arena, which is nice because I heard it was so hot and humid and rainy. But everyone's suites like were covered. Like there was like a ceiling in front of them. Do you know what I mean?
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Like usually like your windows are like flush windows. I just looked like, honestly, like not worth the money, not to complain watching from my couch. I was just like, I would have been annoyed. So we got like all the pictures of Taylor had like this, like just like blurry quality to it. Cause of like the ceiling.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
obviously like getting booed is horrible and people who do it like seriously grow the fuck up like you have children you're booing someone however i do think taylor understood that she was being booed because she's travis's girlfriend not because like if they had showed any of travis's family i think they would have gotten booed maybe not jason but i think it had nothing to do with like music some people thought it was political no i don't think i don't think so i think it was like travis's girl and the whole stadium was eagles fans like yeah
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I think if they put Donna up there, well, Donna's also Jason's mom. So maybe they wouldn't have booed her. No, if they put Britney up there. Oh, yeah. Well, they would. Britney is like kind of a polarizing figure, like especially within her own community. They've always like given her shit. So I don't think it was personal.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I think it's inappropriate like to boo anyone, like especially like it's rude, like it's like a person. Having said that, given her reaction, I think she understood it was not about her because she kind of gave like a funny side eye, like facial expression. It was not about her.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
It, I was so unexpected. Did they announce that she was going to be performing?
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
It was a joke, obviously. Oh my God, like all these nurse RNs were like stitching, being like, this is actually a really common misconception. And apparently fruit actually has a ton of sugar. So if I was gonna be, it's gonna make it worse. And so like Olivia was giving me some advice. People do say like, there's nothing I can do right now to change whether or not I have it.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I was so shocked. Maybe it was, I mean, it was so many things, right? Like the concept is really beautiful. Like how can we not acknowledge that a mere two months ago, 14 people died in like one of the most horrible terror attacks. Like it was really beautiful. Um, The song choice, we were just talking about that song. You guys know that's Shaggy Knight's favorite fucking song.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
And it's one of Lady Gaga's most underrated, and it's so beautiful. So I love that it got its moment. I loved the very low-key nature of everyone, like Tom Brady, Michael Strahan, just standing around a piano. And in the French Quarter, it was so beautiful, and I loved the way that she looked. The looks from this era have been like kind of crazy.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I don't know if you saw what she wore to the actual Super Bowl. Like she looked nuts. And she had like different hair. Yeah, she had black hair, black leather. Like she looked super crazy. At the Grammy, she looked nuts. I thought she looked so sweet. And it was an appropriate look. Like she wore all white. I really liked the bleached eyebrows. I could not come up with one negative thing to say.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
It was so unbelievably beautiful. I was really moved by the whole thing. Like really, it was spectacular.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Well, before that, and the Lift Every Voice. LaDeecy. I just want to say, you put a youth choir in my midst. I'm on board. The youth choir slayed the house down. And then what I really liked about Lift Every Voice was, and I love those initial songs that they do, right? Like God Bless America. Because it's a moment of seriousness before all this fun, right? It's sports. It's celebrities.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
It's all supposed to be fun. But it's a real moment of solitude. It's a moment of togetherness. People cry. We have so many famous, you know, last year, Nick Santini crying.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
there are so many great moments and it's like a real just somber moment and I love that so while I love Lauren Daigle and I actually thought Trombone Shorty was amazing like I wasn't familiar with his work they all through the night they were trying to represent New Orleans and I get that New Orleans has like this really vibrant culture um and I actually really liked that they chose a lot of homegrown talent and they really wanted to showcase like that Harry Connick Jr.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
thing with all the dancers I forgot that there
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Yeah, it was like colorful. It was very Mardi Gras. So I love that they were like, yeah, they were really intent on putting their culture first. I loved that. I did feel like because New Orleans culture is so colorful and bright and fun and loud, they kept infusing it into like America the Beautiful and then John Batiste with the anthem. And I just felt like it was not the vibe.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
It's kind of the opposite of the vibe I personally look for in those songs. I look for moments of solitude, of seriousness. And with like the fun elements of like the jazz bands, I just felt like it didn't match the energy that I was personally looking for. Yeah.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
But it was good. It wasn't a bad rendition at all.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Right, he played the trombone while she delivered vocals, and then he also did vocals, like really beautiful harmonies. But it was just kind of like this scat, scat. It wasn't a scat, but they added this fusion of New Orleans vibe, which is beautiful, but I didn't think appropriate. for like what I usually look for in these moments, like right before the game starts, all the fun.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I always, I just love how serious it always is. I love that we see grown men cry. I love that we see people like take their hats off and just, they cut to the military. Like it's very beautiful. And I think they, New Orleans is a little too close to the sun. They won in New Orleans everywhere. And it was like, and John Batiste did it less, but he still did it.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
But there is something I can do now to change whether or not I fail the first test, in which case I would then have to do like the longer, lengthy, really painful one. So they say I should just like, you know, decrease sugar and carbs a couple of days before, which would be now. I had a bagel for breakfast. If I'm decreasing sugar and carbs, what else is there to eat?
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
And I happen to think it was a pretty rendition. And you know what? I was actually thinking this last year. I feel like every time we sit, we criticize the music. But then history really... will tell how we reflect. And I feel like, I remember when Chris Stapleton did it, I really liked it, but I didn't know if it was gonna become like historic. And now I find myself constantly thinking about it.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
And it's like always getting, it goes viral on TikTok. Like people love it so much. So time will tell, you really can't judge. Even last year with Reba, I think you had said like, it was so great and so classic that she didn't do anything frilly, anything different. And it might go down as like one of the greats. And it doesn't, like we don't even talk about it.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I didn't even remember she did it last year. Right, so time will tell, but I don't think John Batiste entered that Hall of Fame last night, but I do think he did a really nice job and it was very respectful and well done. He didn't flub the words or miss a note. No, no, no, that's not what I'm saying. I'm saying it wasn't bad by any stretch. I wasn't moved to tears.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I don't think a lot of the play, we didn't get a moment like that where they zoom in on people's faces. It was a little too fun. Yeah. And he had this big colorful piano, which I know, I understand it's like a part of New Orleans culture. And I love that.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
It's like the, it's really, it's rare to have a state that really has such individual culture, like outside of, it's not like American, it's Louisiana. Like it's cool. And I love that they infused it. I thought the big intro pre-show was beautiful, but some moments like can be without. And I thought that, John Batiste, like he did a good job. He didn't like, cause he sounded pretty.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
No, but he was chosen because he's a New Orleans local, um, which is so nice. And that would have been enough. Like, I don't like, they were just like pushing New Orleans, I think a little too much in certain corners. But like when the, the, uh, The graphics and everything, the logo was all very New Orleans inspired because it's very colorful. Love, love, love, love.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
So I liked that, that that was clearly a choice of the design team for the Super Bowl. They did a little too much.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
And that was the show. So I actually think, and I would love to hear what your husband thought of it because I don't listen to, I don't go to Spotify and listen to Kendrick Lamar. So I was really shocked at how little of the music I knew as somebody who just like is an active participant in culture, right? Like I don't actively seek out a lot of people's music.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I don't go ever listen to Justin Timberlake, but- when he did the Superbowl, I knew most of his music. So I was like the first time ever that I can remember like in my lifetime where I knew almost none of the music. And that's probably my only critique. I actually think the performance itself, like he executed it flawlessly, right? His choreography was on point.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I happened to love the dancers, like the whole red, white and blue aesthetic, the Uncle Sam, like I thought it was really well done. I think he sounded great. I thought I loved his jeans. My only real critique is that I don't think he was the right choice solely because I, an active participant in a lot of different corners of culture, like really did not know.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I don't think he has enough mainstream hits. And then I think about the people who watch the Super Bowl and that's why it's such a specific tier of people, why we're always like spending so much time thinking about who could do it, who would be good enough. You need a real discography where at least half the songs on your set lists are worldwide hits where every
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
no matter age, no matter where they live, where they know those songs. And I feel like he has one of those songs, Sit Down, Be Humble. So while I thought the performance was actually flawlessly executed, I thought I loved how the cameras were following him around. He had a real vision. And when they kept zooming out, I thought the stage was really gorgeous.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I just don't think he was the right choice. Unless, and I feel like maybe Apple, when they took over, they're changing a little bit of, because for so long, it was like you had to be a classic performer. Like you had to have, like Katy Perry, you had to have like such mainstream success because it's one of the only times of the year where you're going to be reaching almost every single American.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
So you need to be a very specific type of popular. That's why I think they often choose people who are like, maybe not like the most like creative and different, but they have the biggest hits. And that's what we're here to do. Yeah, and everyone will enjoy it. So that was really my only critique. I was like watching and I'm like, this is good, but like I would love to know a song. Yeah, yeah.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
But for the Kendrick fans, I think it was like the most amazing. Like did your husband love it?
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
yeah for um fan people who aren't like huge fans of his music and I think when we think about like who would be eligible for the Super Bowl in the past how we've thought about it we really think of it at least I do is like who would have a Vegas residency who can go on a tour that's almost like a greatest hits who can you know not ever release new music and still have hours and hours of songs to sing and that's why I'm always comparing it to like people who do Vegas residency is um
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
And that's why even I think I remember last year, I was really surprised at how much of a ushers I knew because I haven't actively listened to usher maybe since I'm six.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I did go on a bender last night. What did you eat for the Superbowl? Ben made me Crunchwrap Supremes. I had two. And then we ordered Carvel for dessert. Like I really just sort of went balls to the wall.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
But I'm talking about in terms of like selections. Like I was like, oh, I wonder if I'll know. And I knew the whole thing just like from being an active participant.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I think to Kendrick's credit, I think it's really hard as a man, like a straight man, to dazzle without outfits and makeup and dancers and pyrotechnics. And I think the creative of the show was actually really well done because I think you don't get to rely on a lot of the things that some of the girlies do to make it like fun and bright and like kind of a spectacle.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
So you have to do different things. And I thought that was a really good part of the show that he really, aside from SZA, like did the whole thing by himself, just one man and a microphone. Like that's really hard. And that was really impressive. I thought SZA was a real highlight of the show.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Even though I thought maybe I would know, I knew her song sounded like really familiar to me from TikTok and stuff, but it was just not, it wasn't as pop and mainstream as my particular interests align with.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Yeah, but that's what I'm saying. I think maybe Apple is like shifting how we see Super Bowl performers. Like maybe it's no longer this like time capsule type of thing where, because one of the things that keeps coming to mind, it keeps, Super Bowl performances are like getting viral at this time of year. And this is actually one of the Thanksgiving performers, the creed, let's go there.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
It was after 9-11, like Thanksgiving, but today performance, like it was one of the greatest moments in American history. And it's crazy how like so many of the Super Bowl performances from 10, 20 years, we still watch and are still relevant. That's always been the Superbowl's vibe. They wanted it to be timeless.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
And maybe Apple, since they took over, they're looking to be like a little bit more edgy, a little bit more like topical. Because this was Kendrick's year. He just won all the Grammys. If there was a performer to perform this year, it's Kendrick Lamar. So maybe they're shifting a little bit, like how they perceive and how they select-
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
the halftime show performers, because if it's not from this, like, we look at it so, like, time capsule-y, right? Yeah. But maybe they're not. Maybe they're just like, it's 2025.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Yeah. So maybe, like, it's no longer such a Cause when we think about who we were always saying like, pink would be great because she has so many hits.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
It also is worth noting every single year, the next day people say is the worst one I've ever seen. Like they say that every fucking, Oh my God, every year they fucking say that shit. So it's just one of those things where time will truly tell.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
And when you go back and see like some of the most viewed ones of all time, cause I was actually watching somebody did a tick tock, the top 10 most viewed. And it, it wasn't what you think. And I think, um, Shakira and JLo were like the number two. And I remember after people were like, well, it was good, but... No, I remember watching that and being like... Dazzled. So good. It was amazing.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
In the moment, yeah. I do think it was the type of performance that really could have benefited from a couple of more guest spots. There was a lot of rumors that Beyonce was going to be there because her whole family was there without her. So it's like, oh yeah, of course, she's backstage getting ready. Like... I liked the Serena Williams nod.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Yeah, because it was a minor A. It was a small lowercase.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I agree. So at the Grammys, I was like loving the hatery. I'm like, yes, keep going. But at some point, like you should be there like, you know, and promote your own self and your own accomplishments. Not like this person that you hate as somebody who believes there's no like you can't take hate too far. I actually think like it was a little far.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
He had to perform the song, obviously, and the whole stadium being a minor is embarrassing for Drake enough. The necklace, I feel like, make it about you. This is so awesome.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Obviously, they were briefly dated on and off.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Oh, yeah. Oh, so she like famously did the Crip Walk when she won Wimbledon. It's like this iconic moment. And that was the dance that she did. Yeah. But why were they playing it during Not Like Us? No, I'm telling you, it was about Drake. It was about Drake. It was about Drake. And it's like, Drake is just like kind of like a big loser.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
It's crazy how there was a moment in time where Drake was so famous. Like every song, like everything he did was so major, so mega. He was, the plane, it was just, it was all too much. And obviously that level of fame is like not sustainable, but to go from that to like big time loser where everyone took Kendrick's side, how did that happen?
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Just because when you think about hits. Hits. Yeah, but Drake's also not American.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I was watching a video, a compilation of people who have said no to the Super Bowl. One of them was Dolly. She says she doesn't think she's famous enough and has enough hits for it, which I thought was so crazy. The other was Adele, and I thought it was like, oh, because she's British, but she was like, no, nobody wants to hear my songs at the Super Bowl. It's supposed to be fun.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
We're supposed to be vibing, not crying. I would love it. But I thought it was more so because she's British, even though some people like, I don't know, Harry Styles, yes, is British, but like his music is so American. You know, it's like, it's a part of American culture. I do feel like if Adele got selected, I would be like, this is not the vibe because she's British.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Of course, but it would be, it would be too British, honestly. Because she's British? Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Like the music, I don't think, I don't think it wouldn't be the vibe, not because of the music, because she's seriously too British. Okay, what about Celine Dion? I think she's too French.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Yeah, French-Canadian. Okay, wow. But I don't know why. With Harry Styles, like, I don't know. You don't feel that way. Yeah, but maybe it's because his music is Super Bowl appropriate. It's, like, fun.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
No, no. Like... I don't know, because I do feel like Apple has shifted a little bit the criteria for who is eligible to be a performer. So I think the list of people we come up with maybe no longer applies. Yeah.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Well, he's so wrong for that and he should be fired.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Well, so he is, Apple has, this is only the third Super Bowl Apple has done. And the one before was Usher. And I actually think that was a really good choice. I thought it was a good choice too. And before that was Rihanna, which was also like a bomb ass choice. A good choice and a good performance. And a good execution. Two things. He like actually has done a good job.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I like really went hard in the paint. Yeah. And I figured it's sort of like a sending off to my glucose test. Cause I'll be, I'll be like, I'll try and eat very balanced for the next couple of days. Even though like, I know it does nothing. I either have it or I don't.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Except for the whole, you know, 13 year old thing, which I actually can't get over.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
They were on the TV. They showed him. They were like, Hove in the house. And I was like, call the police. Like, there's Hove in the house.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
It should be fan voted. Well, no, because then Taylor Swift would win every year. Like some people just have fans who are like not chronically online and just like go to work.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Oh, well, the commercials just really quickly.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I can remember one because it was the only one that actually made me laugh and that I hadn't seen before. I was shocked at how, and I didn't even actively seek out commercials. Like I guess they've been playing them on TV and then like also releasing them on social.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
So I had seen, I had seen all the commercials except for Mountain Dew where they had Seal up on a rock as a seal singing a kiss from a rose. That was fucking funny. Okay. And like Slay. And I hadn't seen it yet. Like I was so annoyed. I was like, I've seen it.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
all these commercials and I just wanted to give a major shout out to Uber Eats, because I feel like every year Uber Eats spends the most money on celebrities, the most amount of commercials, like they have so many placements and they never dazzle me. And last night was no exception. They had Matthew McConaughey and every fucking celebrity with this like football was inspired by food commercial.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
It was so unfunny and so expensive. And they're like constantly slaying the department of wasting money. Like they are always, remember the year before they reunited Ross and Rachel and friends, like they're always doing so much and it's so not like good creative. Yeah. And you wanted to give them a shout out. Is that what you said? Yeah. For being the worst. Yeah. They stood out to me.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
And I will say, fellow redhead and friend of the toast, originator of the song My Judy Brown, Dana, she had gestational diabetes. And actually, in hindsight, she tells me now, it was kind of one of the better things to happen to her because it really hindered her in the final trimester from, overdoing it and gaining so much weight.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I'm like, this is like another year where I'm like constantly rolling my eyes at Uber Eats. Like they do so much and it's giving like really try hard energy.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
And I'm just like, it's a lot about like Northeastern Boston culture, which is crazy for like a nationally televised game, right?
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No, I get it too. I don't like fully understand like the beef. And like the whole concept. But I think it's like. They've just like run away with this storyline. Yeah, it's like people in Boston like Dunkin' a lot, obviously. But more so because it's like, it's no frills. It's not like Starbucks fancy macchiato. It's just like coffee in a cup.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
And like, you know, for the real working man, they like a coffee on the go. And I think that's the inspiration, I think.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Yes, so as like a big PR, a lot of influencers get PR. They get like products, sometimes they get like handbags. Some people take it really far. And Poppy was like, hold my beer. And they sent these kind of really pargy, they look like the Kylie Cosmetics like vending machines. They're like these new wave. It's not, you know, your middle school vending machine.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
It's like this really pargy kind of robot. It's huge. They had them delivered to like a select few influencers homes.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
and fully stocked with probably like 100 cans, and you could just like, it's free, so you could just, a lot of influencers left it in their garage. I didn't see any New York City based influencers getting it, because I don't know where the hell you would put it and how you would get it in the elevator, but it immediately started this wave of drama on social media.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
It started this whole conversation online, kind of similar to the conversations that were being had about Tart Island and the Tart trip. Just basically being like, this is super wasteful. Influencers get everything for free. Like, give this to a real customer. Why don't you give back to your customers? And that was kind of the thing with Tart, too.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
It's like, well, you should take your customers on a trip. Well, no one would want to watch that. That's the problem. No, for real. It's such a nice concept. And actually, Tarte does do that. And by the way, I've never seen a picture from it. It's not viral. It doesn't make the brand money. These brands, they're not charities. They're here to create buzz. Buzz equals marketing.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Marketing equals money. Customers... get influenced by these types of things. And so like the response to everything on social media with these brands, especially like these more online brands, like Poppy being like, well, what if you should just do it for your real customers instead? Yeah. Why don't you go bother Walmart? Like leave, like it just, it's just a dumb concept.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
She actually says like by the time she gave birth, she was kind of back at like a normal weight. Yeah, no, she was in that shape of her life. Because you really can't eat anything but like meat and healthy. She was so slender. Right. So while it would be a very unenjoyable experience for me, It wouldn't be the worst thing. Like, I don't know how I'm ever going to go back to eating.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
People have to give the vending machines back in a couple of weeks. A lot of them have actually already returned it. And I'm sure then Poppy will go put them in parks and shit. It's called using a billboard in multiple different ways. I don't understand the backlash. I... Don't think it's a big deal.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Especially when you see like nobody's giving Uber a problem for spending $8 million on one commercial last night. This is what companies at that level do. They spend money. And actually Maureen from Tarte was making a bunch of TikToks being like Tarte will never buy a Super Bowl commercial. Like we'd rather spend $8 million on a trip. So it's literally the same thing.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Think about how much we talked about Tart Island. Everybody was talking about it. That's marketing for Tart. And honestly, I think it's better money better spent than being one in 55 commercials last night. You spent $8 million. That's more embarrassing to me than giving a couple of influencers vending machines.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Yeah, and ultimately- For a grand total of 800,000 in which you're getting the vending machines back. And now look, we're all talking about Poppy. It was successful. Like, congratulations, you played yourself.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Not only that, like, go Poppy. Like, they're a brand that really invests mostly in, like, digital and influencer marketing. And they got a Super Bowl ad last night. Like, that's sick. And the fact that they wanted it to be full of, like, Alex Earl, Jake Shane was in it. Like, a lot of influencers. Like, the people who got them there. I love that.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Like, this is... And I think it's a female-founded brand. Like, fuck off. Like, it's good. Yeah. Like, why shouldn't they be up there spending as much money as Matthew McConaughey and Uber Eats? Oh, man, I'm, like, on an Uber Eats, like, mission today. Like, hate them. But... Even though I'm like their number one customer. Like where's the energy for those, for Doritos?
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
The worst. Actually, did they even do commercials last night?
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
They were. Pete Davidson was like doing a lot last night after being relatively quiet for a while. He was actually at the Super Bowl and I think he was in one or two commercials.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I can't believe I used to live a healthy lifestyle. I can't believe I ever like used to make good choices. I don't remember that girl at all.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Wait, you know what was actually a good one that's really appropriate for this conversation? What? Taco Bell. What did they do? They were like, we are not going to use big celebrities for our, we're going to give it to our consumers.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
But then they also, so they put up like a million pictures really quickly. They're like, if you're in this, screenshot it. And all their customers, like from social media, they took pictures of like everybody who takes pictures at Taco Bell. It was cute. But then they also had like LeBron James and tons of celebrities being like, wait, we're not in the commercial?
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
And like the lights were being turned off on them. So it wasn't enough to have your customers in your commercial because nobody would have been talking about that. But now we're talking about it because LeBron James was in it and being funny, being like, am I still getting paid for this?
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
So they did have to spend all that money on the commercial and the celebrities, but then put a couple of pictures of their customers in it. Being like, look, send this to your mom. You're going to talk about commercial.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Yeah, no, it's so true. And also you just reminded me of something. Hold on, I was about to make a fire point. It just like escaped my brain.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
No, I know I will. But at some point I'm like, you know, after being pregnant, I'll have to go back.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I was thinking about like Flow from Progressive. I was thinking about that.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I remember. There was also no commercials that made me cry. I feel like every year there's one or two like really beautiful ones about like family or nostalgia or like a pet dying. I remember Amazon Prime, Farmer's Dog Slade a couple of years ago. Yeah, Farmer's Dog Slade. Where was the tearjerker?
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
That's funny. Not you saying I watched the whole thing. I was asleep for half the game.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Not me forgetting I have a job to do. I know.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Today's episode is brought to you by State Farm. So when you get a new car or a new house, the first thing you might find yourself saying is, literally what? It's giving homeowner. But really, the words you want to be thinking or singing are like a good neighbor. State Farm is there.

The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Like a good neighbor, save a miss there. Today's episode is also brought to you by K18. K18's leave-in molecular repair hair mask is the viral leave-in peptide treatment that reverses hair damage in four minutes. So the healthy hair solution works at the deepest molecular level for lasting repair on all types of hair.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
K18 has become one of my favorite and honestly shout out to social media because I really got influenced into buying a bunch of K18 products from some of my favorite influencers a couple of months ago and I'm so glad that they're a sponsor because it's really a fabulous hair care brand and Jackie and I are very specific about our hair it's kind of the one thing that we are like really protective of especially because we don't color our hair so we're always trying to like maintain the integrity of our hair different phases of our life we've also just like burnt out our hair and so I
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
The products that you use can really make a huge difference in your everyday, like, day-to-day hair shine and things. So this Leave-In Molecular Repair Mask is so fabulous. It's clinically proven to repair damage from bleach and color, chemical services, and heat, which is huge. It's all the things that we use, you know, to express ourselves.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
In just four minutes, you're going to get stronger, smoother, and softer hair. It'll be bouncier like new no matter what you put it through again and again. So I've tried through different phases of my life to stop using heat. And it's just not an option. Like I'm on camera every day. So it wasn't about like using less heat. It was about finding products that really will help protect my hair.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Like when I'm not, you know, using heat to restore it, to repair it. And K18 is so fabulous. You can find it at your local Sephora. You can feel the difference for yourself.

The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Which I feel, I'm kind of into West, like tea? I don't have time. West tea. So these rumors got like really... were popping off over the weekend on social media. And I think maybe it would have died down, except that they kind of confirmed it. Wes did.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Maybe they knew of each other, but no, I don't think they personally knew each other. I think there was like a small group of like internet people who were at the Superbowl compared to like celebrities. And so they probably just stuck together. and I could see them just hooking up. I don't think this is a great love, and I don't think this is either of their next relationships.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I think they probably hooked up, had a really good time. I could see them getting along personality-wise. A lot of people are like, oh my God, does this mean Brianna on Summer House? I don't think so, although that wouldn't be the worst for both things.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I actually think Summer House could really use somebody young and fresh and relevant like Brianna, and Wes could use something to distract us from what he did from Ciara. I think it would be good for everyone, Um, but I don't think that's where this is leading. I think they just like hooked up and probably had a really fun weekend. Like you forget, like they're 25.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's probably like one of the worst things about being sick is desperately needing a heating pad for like your aches and things while also dripping sweat.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Like that's what you do when you're 25. Yeah.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
By the way, Craig was at the Super Bowl, as was Paige. They were both rooting for the Eagles. I saw both of their videos. It appears that they were actually on complete opposite sides of the stadium, thank God. But just unfortunate.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
He didn't. He was with a bunch of people. He was like, thanks, Eagles, for letting me join your fandom for the weekend. Oh, okay. He was just going to go. And Paige roots for them because of... I think that the guy that she's friends with slash... She says she's not dating, but...
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I also saw a theory that she's good friends with his sister. It could just be that. I know, but those pictures from that game, that was a date. There was just one blurry picture. She could have just been sitting next to him. Maybe the sister was on the other side. That's true.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Okay, so the theory that I had heard was that she's friends with Paige's sister, and Paige is friends with her sister, and the sister's a huge Giggly Squad fan. So she'd be like, brother, can you take me and my cool friend to the Super Bowl? Got it, got it. And then maybe Paige and him are vibing, and maybe that's how this girl gets her brother to marry Paige DeSorbo, but it's an alternate theory.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Well, because everybody was like freaking out that I guess the guy was backstage at one of their shows. With the sister. With the sister, exactly. The sister is like a huge giggler.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I literally, like, completely zoned out. Can you start the story from the beginning? SNL 50th Anniversary Special.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I started listening when you said Sabrina Carpenter. I'm like, wait, what's she doing with John Mulaney?
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
So literally, is this like on Saturday night at 1130 or is it like a different time slot?
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Oh, they are just loving to abuse our Sunday evenings.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I actually think this will be good. I know everything SNL does is like so lame these days, but when you really think about the breadth of talent who's come from SNL and they all still love and respect Lorne and show up whenever he asks, like when you get them all in a room, it's like the greatest of our time.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
It took Kelsey Ballerini by storm. I don't know if you saw, she canceled her Buffalo show mid show. I can understand. Terrible. Oh my God. I'm just like, really? Not that I have like so many big plans, but I'm really saying no to a lot of things. Cause if I get the flu, you guys, it'll be bad for everyone. Yeah. Yeah, truly. But otherwise, weekend was very chill. Oh, you know what?
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Oh, and I'm sure there'll be like tributes to like Norm Macdonald and Chris Farley.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
The whole point of it is to celebrate the good old days.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Love to see Sabrina out here just like getting gigs, booking things, you know?
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Who is she gonna... Oh, wait, the Barry Keoghan Squarespace commercial was actually good.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Wait, who was it? I can't even remember like his face.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
He's like, and I'm like blanking on the whole commercial.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Classic face. Honestly, that whole commercial was for this.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Oh, you know who else crushed the commercials?
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
The cast of, um, Schitt's Creek. They were in every fucking commercial because you know Dan Levy is homes.com. And then Eugene Levy was Little Caesar with the eyebrows flying away. Very funny. And Moira. Catherine O'Hara was in the Michelob Ultra commercial. Yeah. But did you see, I had thought it at the same time, Adam Brody was in the Pringles commercial and he's like, we need more Pringles.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
They're like, blow on the can. And then the Pringles mustache like flies off. And then everybody, all these famous people with mustaches, like their mustaches flew away. It was like the same exact creative from Little Caesars. Like Little Caesar had the eyebrows flying. Sparky Palastri. From Eugene Levy. It was Sparky Palastri Syndrome. They used the same agency that only had one idea.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Do you think, like, do you think, because it looked visually so similar because it was like a mustache with two parts. It looked like a set of eyebrows. I was like, wait, this is the same commercial I just saw. I think they got Sparky Palastri'd. I think they got, yeah, I would love to know like the drama at the agencies right now.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Like if it was really just parallel thinking, but it's such a random, sometimes you could see how two people could come to the same conclusion, right? I don't see how two totally separate teams could have come up with the Pringles mustache flying off and that Eugene Levy eyebrow flying off. I don't know. Drama. Drama. Well, those are the past five stories at McFeel's, so you needed to know them.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Did we hit everything? It was literally, I got in bed at 4 o'clock, and it was over at like 11. So there was so much. I hope I didn't miss anything.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I mean, it's never not the... even though sometimes it's like, well, what about Saquon? It's just always the quarterback, unless the quarterback's injured or something. Yeah, even though I often think about like my team, the Niners, if they ever won, like they came really close these last couple of years. Like would it be Brock or would it be Christian McCaffrey?
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Because Christian McCaffrey was injured this season and like they didn't even make it to the playoffs. So it's really, it's kind of Christian's thing.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I wanted to ask you something. I actually didn't talk to you at all this weekend. And I meant to tell you, I was getting so much shit on Instagram yesterday. So I went to Maddie, Ben's sister, my sister-in-law's bridal shower. It was lovely. And I was like posting pictures. And so many people were coming at me being like, so weird that you called Ben's sister.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
But they're going to Disney World. And I just honestly, if you're a resident of Philadelphia, stay safe because your team won. And that just means like destruction is upon you. So don't go outside. Hide your kids. Hide your wife. And just it'll all blow over soon because the parade's coming to town. I'm sure last night the city was engulfed in flames.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I really did not think they were going to win. And I do think like it's easy to say, well, of course they won. The other team was bad. I think two things can be true. I think they played some of the best football they've ever played while the Chiefs were also bad. Like they didn't only win because the Chiefs were bad. They were just like unstoppable. Yeah.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Right, because what I had said, why I thought they weren't going to win is like they absolutely crushed the Washington, whatever their name is these days. And I was like, well, yeah, the Ross Washingtons were awful. Like that doesn't mean you're good just because the other team is bad. And now I'm rethinking. I'm like, maybe they actually were a decent team, Washington.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025

Leave a five-star review, bitch, about how beautiful, stunning, and wickedly talented we are. Have an amazing day, and we'll see you tomorrow. Love ya, bye.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Because I was like, I was like narrating the... events on my Instagram story. And I was like, off to Ben's sister's bridal shower. And I guess like a more normal thing to say with my sister-in-law's bridal shower.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I was thinking like negative. I was thinking it's a net. Like I find, and then I was thinking like, even when I talk about Ben's family on the show, I don't say my in-laws, I say Ben's family. I feel like it's a more endearing term. In-laws has such like a net. Maybe it's the deer toasters in me. Like it has such a negative connotation.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
People are like, the jacket got so many, so weird that you call her Ben's sister. Why?
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
I don't think so. And also like when Ben and I met, Maddie was like 14. So to me, I know she's a grown ass woman now, but like she's getting married, but she's still like little sis, a hundred percent. That's a good point too.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
They don't know. They don't know. But then I do realize like even when I was talking last week about how I had dinner with Ben's parents, like I exclusively call them Ben's parents, not my in-laws. I don't know why. I think in-laws is like a dirty word.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
And don't you also feel like it's a little waspy, like not Jewish? No. To say in-laws, well, you say machatunim. Machatunim, right. But I don't know. I don't know a lot of Jewish people who say my in-laws.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Well, yeah, my machatunim. And that is a term of endearment.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
But machatunim only refers to your spouse's parents. I don't think it includes siblings.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Yeah, even though last night was like a big intro for me to Saquon and the Barkley of it all. And let me just say, PJOM energy. Like love that he couldn't do what he did last night, like for our team, the Giants, and they were in New York, but whatever. Like he's such a cutie. And I watched actually a lot of the pre-show.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
That's your Yiddish word of the day. Machatunim. Spelling so unclear. But just Google it. Machatunim.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Got it. Got it. Because you're like you're sort of behind.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Yes, yes. Not a good night for the Chiefs and specifically Patty over there.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
It does make you wonder like what documentaries were being filmed last night. Definitely like a Jalen Hurts.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Across all different sports. Like they do golf. They do tennis. They do a lot of football. They just did the tight end. DCC. We were at the DCC last night.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Oh, but that's percent. And I was actually thinking at NFL honors, a great joke for a soup dog was hosting. Whoever was hosting would have been like, it was a great year for the Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders because it really was.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
And people literally show up to the games like for them.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
Yeah. So I feel like we're just sort of circling the drain.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025

The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
It's the best option for dogs at all life stages because it's not kibble, it's not canned goo, it's just real healthy food. Traditional dry and wet dog food options are highly processed, they can use much lower quality ingredients than they claim to, and they're extremely difficult to portion accurately. Well, the farmer's dog is sending you pre-portioned
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
food specifically for your dog based on their unique nutritional needs. It makes it easy to help your dog maintain their ideal weight which is one of the biggest indicators of a full healthy life.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
So dogs at a healthy weight can live up to two and a half years longer than overweight dogs especially like it's very breed specific but Jackie and I are cavalier moms and we're super crazy about the dog's weight. That's why I'm always calling Bruno fat because They are predisposed to a heart condition. So like their weight can really affect, it can actually take years off their life.
The Toast
Super Bowl Licks: Monday, February 10th, 2025
So we're really crazy about what we feed our dogs. And the farmer's dog, when I switched Theo to it, it was such a game changer. His breath was better. His coat was much shinier.

The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
but I need to just kind of like take a big diarrhea dump before I do that. Um, because I had such a problem with the Oscars and I know you did too. And I just want to like, I want to talk about how like offensive to my core.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And obviously like I take things, you know, related to my people very, very personally, but I don't know how anyone could have watched the Oscars last night and not just like wanted to vomit all over these people, especially when you think about like, so top four awards, which were like best supporting actor, actress, um, Two of them films were Holocaust movies.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Two of the actors who won are Jewish. And the way there was just, like, so much profiting off of Jewish trauma and, like, no mention of recent Jewish trauma, I found so offensive. Ongoing? Ongoing? I like Kieran Culkin, and, like, I...
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
I don't wanna smear him, but you get up there, you won it for a Holocaust movie, you're not even Jewish, to not even mention it, I actually found so offensive, and I thought his speech was really sweet about his wife, so cute, but let's talk about what got you here first, just briefly, I know you have a limited amount of time.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Mikey Madison, Jewish girl, no mention, this is the biggest moment, and Adrian Brody, and I'm sorry, I love him, I'm gonna gag over him and Georgina and the gum, I'm gonna do it. But like, disappointment. The speech was weak, especially because they started playing the music and he was like, no, stop, I have something to say. And I was like, oh, here we fucking go. Here we go.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
He stopped the music. I'm ready for him to slay the house down boots. And like he said, anti-Semitism, like he was pushing out of duty. Like it was the hardest thing he'd ever done. And then he also like blanketed it with other like sort of buzzwords. And it was just, it was not powerful. It was not moving. And the whole thing just felt so bleh to me.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And then for this film, which was like nominated in one of the categories normally people don't care about, like documentary short, It was called No Other Land to Have Won, which was like seriously like a propaganda film made about the war in Israel. For them to have won and then got up on stage and just like said to me like the most abhorrently offensive, unfactual things.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Like to me, I wanted to turn the whole fucking thing off. I thought it was disgusting. Like everything I've ever thought about Hollywood. And enough with the Jews run Hollywood because if they did, like last night wouldn't have happened. So just please shut the fuck up. I wanted to turn it off, but I'm like, no, I did not come this far to only come this far. I watch these piece of shit movies.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
I'm gonna see this through. So I will give my thoughts and I won't make everything about this, but I just needed to be said how personally offensive I found the whole night.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And I really feel like I've been so positive recently. And I'm really due for like a hater episode. I have actually a lot of really kind of hot button controversial things to say. I'm not sure if I'm going to say all of them. I haven't even spoken to you offline.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
I'm sorry. Wait, one more thing. One more thing that like added to my list of offensive. I said everyone. And then for that ugly fuck, Guy Pearce, I've never even heard of him. Like you come to the Oscars on the backs of a Holocaust movie and you wear your stupid, ugly, free Palestine pin. Like, you know nothing. You're an idiot. And I hate you.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
So that's my kind of big, like outside of my own personal politics, which I can admit like I'm very close to. Now I'm gonna take a step back and just talk about this as a movie critic, if I may, because I've seen all the movies. I've seen all the movies. And when they played in the very beginning, like this little trailer of like movies of yore that have won Oscars and it was all in tribute to LA.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
So it was like big Hollywood films. They had La La Land, everything that, it was just like so glamorous and you're like, yes, this is the Oscars. Yes, yes, yes. And then you take a look at the slew of films that were nominated this year and it's like, one of these things is not like the other. There was nothing, and then when you think about also, I'm sorry, the films that won, oh really?
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
The category that gave us La La Land and 12 Years a Slave and Gone with the Wind, the greats, Nora? It's actually crazy that I think what now is considered an Oscar-worthy film is just so different than what I'm used to seeing. And Last Night was just like all the worst movies being nominated and treated like, you know, like something that they weren't.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
So it's like, well, I don't know if like, Anora should have won over Amelia Perez. To be honest, I don't really give a fuck. They're all the same type of movie. Like, where are the greats? Where are like these big productions? And like, the one thing I'll say about Anora that I liked is that it was an independent movie made for $6 million, and that just doesn't happen to movies like that.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And that's cool, for sure. Shout out to the indies, they deserve. But at its core, it was a dumb movie. I actually enjoyed it. It was like a silly movie you would see with your friends. Oscars? It's just not adding up.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Honestly, when I think of what constitutes an Oscar-worthy film, I would have said Conclave. And the more that time has passed since I've watched this movie, I find myself thinking most and talking to people about Conclave as a good movie should. I enjoyed The Substance the most. I would have been happy if they won, and Demi Moore was 1,000% snubbed. It's not even a question.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Yeah, I think I would say Conclave. Okay. Or Wicked. Like, I know they're, like, against giving it to popular things. But when you think about movies in the year 2025, like, you're only thinking about Wicked.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And it's okay to give it to something, like, corny and popular.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Moonlight, yeah. Okay, so let's go through the categories, but let's also just talk about the opening, which started out for me, and I'm feeling really critical of the night, so I'm going to say things about people whom I love.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Yeah, okay. Well, one of my hot takes is that the performances were so bad. And that's not like a hot take or anything. But the performances, obviously, that stood out were Ari and Cynthia. And it was so pargy. The way they chose songs to encapsulate the entire Wizard of Oz universe, not just Wicked, somewhere over the rainbow, and then The Wiz, and then Wicked. Like, it was so beautiful.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Yeah, so I just have a lot of thoughts. And also, this is the first year that I'm really... well-versed in the movies. You know, I've seen most of the talkies.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
But I was really kind of like... shooketh at Ari's vocals. I feel like you could always say what you want about Ari, right? Like, you know, like her music and her personal life, but she's going to slide the house down boots with that voice. And she's going to shut everybody up. She was a little like shaky. I don't know if she was nervous, but it was not giving her party flawless vocals.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Yeah, it wasn't, I don't know, I wasn't like blown away. And then Cynthia comes out and sing a song from The Wiz that I didn't know, but I was enjoying immensely. And Cynthia's just like, she could fart out a tune that's better than anything you've ever heard. And then when they brought the two women together, and I really did love that like,
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
even though the movie has been paraded as like Cynthia and Ari, Cynthia and Ari, Cynthia and Ari, like the big songs and the vocals, like it is Elphaba. And so I liked that the performance was like really for Cynthia and Ari was very much there as like supporting act because that final song, like, oh my God, I wasn't okay. It was so beautiful. She didn't even look like she was trying.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
That was the crazy thing. Like the way she was hitting these notes, It was perfection. I liked the cinematography. They showed Ari in the back doing some supporting vocals. I hope you're happy. Like, Pard, you're fucking licious. I loved it. And I was like, oh, here we fucking go. The Oscars are about to like, you know, the year I finally watch them all, I'm ready. And then Conan came out.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And I want to say something. I don't have any particular strong feelings about Conan. I think people really love him. And people also really dislike him. So I was ready to be dazzled. I'm like, take me to your side. Make me a fan. And I found the whole thing really hard to watch. He was really corny. And he was trying so hard, which I appreciate. But it was reading so desperate. And I don't know.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And so now that I have, and you're going to regret making me watch these movies, because I have some really kind of crazy things to say. So the first story we have today is the Oscars. We'll get into that in a little bit. But how was your weekend, Jax? Tell me all about it.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
It was also not funny. That's kind of where... I draw the line.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Yeah, it wasn't good. And then with any host, even if you're doing a good job, towards the end, like, I find you annoying. But I started finding him annoying, like, the second and third time he came on. And, like, I was just scrolling. I miss half of his jokes. Like, he was really bothering me. Irksome. Okay. So it's a no from Conan. It's a no for Conan. It's a no-nin. And he also...
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
he just reminds me of like, and I know he's not like a Jimmy, but he has that vibe and he didn't stand out in a way. So it was giving Jimmy. Yeah.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
There were a couple of good jokes, like I laughed, but the Carlos Sofia Gascon of it all was very funny. I didn't know if they were going to dress that. I didn't even know if she was in the building. She was in the building, right? Because everybody was ignoring her. I didn't see her on the carpet. So she had tweets. If you guys don't know, she's the actress from... Who plays Emilia Perez.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Emilia Perez. Actually, it's Perez. There's an apostrophe over the first E. And... Everybody loves her like queen, queen, queen. And then she had tweets and now everybody hates, hates, hates. And she was dominated for best actress. So it was like really, like she was a big player last night.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
She wasn't on TV once, except when Conan made the joke about her, which I actually thought was a funny joke and good on her for like, you know,
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
No, no, because I think by the time her tweets came out, like most of the voting had already been done, especially because this production was postponed.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Yeah, I think that and that was something I a positive I want to give. And there's going to be very few positives. So just hold on to your horses. I really appreciated them giving Amelia Perez only two out of the 13 nominations. Now, I didn't agree with either of the two, but they could have went home with more than that.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And it would have actually been like such a slap in the face to everybody there. Yeah, that it was the right thing.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Yeah, it should have went to Demi Moore. First of all, that movie was really good, The Substance. And she was incredible. Because we're talking about two different things here. With the actress categories, you have to separate the movies from the performance. Even if you thought the movie was bad, was their performance better? And Enora was a worse movie and a worse performance.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And Demi Moore totally deserved it. It was her, I think, feel like one of her, like her only chance, you know? And it was so obvious that it was gonna be her. She was sitting right in the front row. Like, why wasn't it? She was amazing.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And Anora was like this dumb, silly movie, I'm sorry, about like a wealthy Russian kid who moves to New York and like hides from his parents and hires a hooker and gets married to her and they just like get drunk and big. It's like, it was so silly. And she plays the hooker. And she's just like, fuck yes, fuck that. She's from, they film it in New York. So she's like this OG New York stripper.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And I didn't think the accent was very good. I wasn't really buying, like it wasn't an amazing acting performance. So I have no idea why she won. And it should have been to me.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Yeah, I didn't see. I didn't see this one, so I don't have, like, a strong feeling. But of the ones that I did see, I do feel like they could have given it to Ralph Fiennes. Oh, that was a funny joke Conan made. Like, if you lose again tonight, we're allowed to call you Ralph. Funny.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Oh, I saw that movie. It was bad. Sorry. I don't think, I don't know where she went.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
except he did something so cute. We need to talk about his speech, okay. So he really couldn't believe that he won. He's hugging everyone, giving Georgina the biggest kiss, doesn't want to let go of his girl, his girl. He's walking up the stairs, then he realizes he has gum in. He's like, oh shit.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
But he's halfway up the stairs, so he takes the gum out and he's looking around for what to do with it, and Georgina's running after him. She sees him in this predicament. Georgina's running with the wrapper, you know? And he tosses it. in the air, she goes to catch it. She did miss it, but she picked it up off the ground. It was such a funny, sweet, supportive moment.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
I saw people online being like, this is outrageous, throwing your trash at a woman. Shut up! It was funny. It was funny. I thought it was really sweet, and it made them so real. That's your partner. It's this huge moment for them. Let them throw your trash at you. It doesn't matter.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
No, and he acknowledged her in the speech. He called her his partner and he spoke of her kids, which is so crazy because it's like Harvey Weinstein's kids. And I think he referred to himself as like a nickname. He was like, Popsie, he said something like Popsie did it or Popsie won. Like, are you saying you're their dad? I mean, their dad's in jail. So like, they need a father.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
He's not the stepfather. He's a father who stepped up. I thought I heard that, but don't quote me on that. So I thought the whole exchange was actually really sweet. And I love them together. And I'm putting aside like my distaste for his speech. because I can hold space for multiple things at once. It was a very cute moment. And it was a really, oh, and then he couldn't remember.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
He was like thanking everyone on his team and his family and his family, his family. And he's like, I feel like I'm forgetting. And then they cut to Georgina and she's screaming, your mom, your dad, your parents. She's literally telling him who he forgot. They're totally like in love. They're a real couple. Like they are parchy. Like Kylie and Timothy.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Kylie and Timothy were on camera quite a bit because, you know, in the monologue, they love to poke fun at everyone. And Timmy had a whole bit with Adam Sandler. And Kylie was cut out for a lot of the... I wanted to scream at the cameraman. Zoom the fuck out.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And Pauline was there. I love to see Pauline out there shaking that thing. Kimberly from Sex, Lies, and College Girls. Yes, I think he has another brother too, but he's not in Sex, Lies, and College Girls, so I don't know him. But they all took a family photo. Kylie skipped the carpet, but met him right at the seats, letting him have his moment. Timothy looked really cute in his yellow outfit.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
It was a good night for them. Even though his movie took home not one award. I didn't think it was deserved. None of these movies were good, by the way. It was a particularly bad year for movies. Because when you think about last year, like Elvis, right? Like even though it didn't win everything, it was like glamour and everyone was talking about Istanbul.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
There was like nothing like that this year. Oh yeah. But see, people refuse to give Wicked, even myself, like look, I'm so, as a critic myself, I'm so sort of inured to not giving it the credibility it deserves, even though it is, like it was the biggest movie of the year. If we can talk about Barbie at the Oscars in a real way, we could talk about Wicked at the Oscars in a real way.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Speaking of Rocket Man, Diane Warren lost again. I believe it was her 16th Oscar loss. And just give the woman a fucking Oscar.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
That song did sound really good. I hadn't heard of the song with her, but it sounded really good. And the winner was Amelia Perez. Like, are you fucking kidding me?
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Of all the reasons why Amelia Perez, like, was the worst movie and so offensive was because of the music. It was seriously, like, bad music. So for them to have won the music category... Was offensive. It was.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
It's him and his cousin go to Poland after their grandma, who's a Holocaust survivor, dies. Did you watch it?
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
I didn't I almost did but it again I have such a hard time I can acknowledge like how close and that's what even we were saying about nobody wants this like I'm we're so critical of anything that reflects our culture because it's usually bad so I was just not in the mood to like take umbrage with the film do you know what I mean yes set in modern times it's not like an old yeah they're like I saw a review of it that was actually looked like a good review made me want to watch the movie it's like two guys are trying to like stave off a midlife crisis so they go
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
I didn't watch it because I really wasn't in the mood to be a hater again. Do you know what I mean? It's so hard.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
So the only other person that I thought should have won, which is funny considering I have such a hate for Onora, is the guy who was nominated because he was an amazing actor. The movie was bad. This is what I'm saying. You have to separate the performer from the performance. Onora was like such a dumb movie. This guy was actually an amazing actor.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
He's relatively unknown and you couldn't get a read on him the whole time. He actually was a really important person in the movie. So if anything from Onora was gonna win, I wanted it to be that guy because I liked his character and he did an amazing job. But whatever. Whatever. Then best director went to a Nora. All in all, like, it was just such a dumb evening. Like, the movies were dumb.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
The people were dumb. Oh, you didn't say Zoe Saldana. Did we say Zoe Saldana?
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Amelia Price. And I just wanted to say I thought her speech was out of control. Classic. Like, she was really nutty at the Golden Globes, and it was, like, funny but weird, and she just brought the same energy. I thought she was really nutty. I actually loved the way that she looked. I've seen a lot of, like, hate for her dress. I thought she looked beautiful.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Mine wasn't fabulous either. Although I did, yes, I did have a dinner party on Friday night. The Taylor's. You did.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And I just thought it was such a crazy speech. I was just like, oh, it was a lot. And then she went backstage and was doing press and she got asked a question. Because the movie's been highly criticized. By people. Especially by, no, by Mexicans.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Yes, right. By fans. And there was a reporter from like a Mexican publication who was Mexican herself and was like, what do you say to like the people of Mexico who were just like really disheartened to see you like make a film at the heart of Mexico when all you're talking about is like drug cartels and murder, which is like something we are known for that we shouldn't be.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
We have other things to offer, like a beautiful culture. And she basically told this woman to go fuck herself. She was like, we, yeah, made the movie in Mexico, but it's not about Mexico. It's about four women. It could have happened. It couldn't have happened anywhere. It's about the women. And it was actually like a really media trained answer.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And you can think that, and you have every right to, but here's why it's dumb. And she was just sort of cutting out Mexico from the, she was like, yeah, we might have filmed in Mexico, but it was fucking irrelevant. Nobody cares about Mexico. And it was like, well, actually, the whole movie, I agree, it was done in Spanish. It was actually really about Mexico. It was the backdrop.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
She was hard to get a hold of. It was one of those nights that like was perfect and only would have been made more perfect if I could have a cocktail. You know?
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And the same way that Brighton Beach was the backdrop of Enora and the Enora girl thing to the people of Brighton Beach. The movie can be about four women and Mexico. Right. Right, but also the movie was special because the woman in particular, Emilia, was a Mexican cartel drug lord before transitioning to becoming a woman.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Oh, she had like a drug cartel name, like the monster or something. Oh, yeah, like the... Like El Chapo. You know, I don't know what like I don't realize what like the government name was, but the drug cartel had like a name and it was like the leader of it was like El Chapo.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
I kind of want to just just know. I just really, like, I really did not enjoy the Oscars at all. And I'm annoyed, because, like, I was really curious to see if, like, for the first year where I watched almost all the movies, would it have been a different experience? And maybe if I had chosen a different year, like, where the movies were, like, they were competitive.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Like, if there were so many good movies that we couldn't even choose, you know? But, oh, my God. It was, seriously, like, this is the state of filmmaking. James Cameron is rolling over in his grave. Like, it was so lame. And every movie was, like, stupid and awful. I don't know. It wasn't giving Oscars. Do you know what I mean? Yeah, but I think this is what the Oscars are giving now. I guess.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
But even when I think about recent years, there are movies that stand out that we still talk about. Like Green Book. Like Green Book. Do you know what I mean? Like none of the movies from this year will be remembered besides Wicked. Green Book is a great movie. Green Book was an amazing movie, and I remember that year, we watched a lot of the movies. Also, the one with the billboards.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
No. Ben, Taylor and Taylor. Like we were having so much fun. Ben made a beautiful meal. We played like board games. Like, you know, that's my dream night.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Yeah, we watched that one. I can't believe we watched that. That was a bad movie. But I'm saying, every year, there are movies to watch. I didn't think that movie was so bad, actually. Uh... Like something happens to their daughter and they take out billboards in like this small town. Like I was just saying, movies come to mind in recent years that I've seen.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Like I don't think we'll be talking about these films ever again.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Okay. Like... Go off, Amelia. When that Amelia Perez songwriter started singing on stage, I knew I needed to turn it off.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Correct. And they were nominated twice in the song category. It's fucking crazy.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
But the original song category doesn't do musicals. People write songs for the soundtrack, Miley.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And everybody was like, drinking wine, and Ben doesn't really drink, and he did, and I was like, oh my God, of course, one night you get fun drunk, and I'm not even allowed to participate. So it was fun, but it could have been better, you know? With a drink. Yeah, but that's actually not the most important thing that happened to me this weekend.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Yeah. There really actually wasn't even that much to say. I guess I didn't have like... that many hot takes, just that like I didn't like Conan. I thought Anora was like- Not worthy. Not worthy and- Understood.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Welcome back to The Toast and happy Monday. And if there was a Monday that I ever felt like a Monday, it might be this particular Monday because my God, we have so much to cover. Hello, Jax.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
I am hanging my head in shame. I thought that's what you were saying, that she wrote that. I'm like, oh, I didn't read that part of the statement.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
I want to say that I feel a little bit of peace knowing she's not referring to us directly because she's talking about people who make the accounts.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
She's talking to the people who make the Finstas, the people who like spread... I guess that technically was us. And I'm sorry. She's so right. Some lessons need to be learned the hard way. I am hanging my head in shame. I shouldn't have brought it up. It just came across my desk. That's why I hate this job sometimes. You're forced to do things that you don't. And I knew it was wrong.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
I knew it was wrong. Of course. And you know what? Even if Mason did have a child, still none of our business. Oh, speaking of, you know what I'm going to watch this week? I've seen a lot of talk about it on social media. Ruby Frankie Hulu documentary, like the mommy blogger. Yeah.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Apparently, like apparently she like filmed a lot of her abuse, like as vlog content, like yelling at everyone and like didn't delete it. So they have a lot of things from her hard drive and I've been seeing it go viral on social media. And that was a story that I like I know about, but I don't know a lot of the details.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
I too had a pretty boring weekend, although I consumed a lot of content for the purposes of today's show. I finished Love is Blind. I watched so much Desperate Housewives. I won't bore you guys with it, but it's just like the only thing that brings me joy. But I also had a traumatic event that I'd like to.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
add that to my list let me know how it is if you would recommend it i would maybe watch it but i it let me know if it's like really upsetting bothersome yeah well also like you know i think a lot of people have been asking me like turdy are you gonna put your kids on social media and i'm definitely not um and i think that this documentary will only further my decision like i i don't judge people who put their kids on social media but i think that after watching this documentary i might start
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
If you're... If your kids account for 30% of your content, then 65% of the revenue that the kids bring in needs to be put into a trust for the child. This is like a new child labor, child exploitation law that passed in California a couple of weeks ago. And I actually think it's a great law. And a lot of people are talking about it online.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Actually, they're kind of targeting a couple of creators because like the LeBrant family, I don't know if you know who that is. They're one of the biggest YouTube family channels. They have like five kids now. Yeah. they're moving out of California and people are like, well, it's because they don't wanna pay their kids.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And I don't know if that's true or not, but then Brittany Xavier, who's a TikToker who makes content with mostly her husband and their like 18 year old daughter, but they also have two other kids who get in the content. She's also moving to Tennessee. and people are like, well, it's because you don't want to pay your kids. She actually responded. She was like, are you fucking kidding me?
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Every time my kids are in a video of mine, and I've said this for years, I pay them. We're moving out of California for X, Y, and Z. They're like, I think she wants to live on a farm. She's very homesteadery.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
No, you can tell when a parent sets up a tripod in the kid's room and holds a gun to their head to dance on camera. That's not Brittany Xavier. I agree. The LeBrand family does definitely do that.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
No, I don't either. And I actually don't think that California is, like, the most popular place for family channels to exist. I feel like it's, like, a lot of Utah, a lot of Texas. Like, I don't think that it's a very California-like thing.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Right, back to Mason, I just wanna say, I'm sorry, I was wrong. And I'm sorry for dragging you down. No, it was so wrong, it was so wrong. I didn't say that I believed it, I just was remarking on how crazy it was that people were saying it. I didn't make it a thing, so I don't wanna take responsibility for that, but I shouldn't have brought it up, it's gross.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Yes, you will not believe that the craziest thing ever happened to me again. So I'm obviously pregnant. I don't know if I mentioned that. I talk about it so little. And I get no backlash every time. Can I just say, I got so much hate on Friday after talking about pregnancy for 20 minutes. I feel like I've been so good reeling in my pregnancy stuff. And guys, just let me live. I'm pregnant.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And you know who I blame? Whoever sent me that TikTok. I forget who it was.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Well, especially recently I've been asking because in our new studio setup, you don't have a clock near you where you can see the time. And I actually think you need one because like you would be moving differently.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
They had dinner the next night. Like they made it right.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
That's not what happened. What happened? So Bethany TikToks all the time, you know, like she makes like a lot of content every day and that night she makes a TikTok, the first one from the series and it's like, you know, when the hot young influencer like stands you up for dinner.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And people started spiraling. And Bethany then like made a thousand TikToks about it, explaining that they had this dinner plan. She wasn't sure if Braxton was coming, but it was totally her and Alex. And it was at Carbone. And she gets to the table. They gave her this great table. And she texts Alex being like, by the way, they sat me in the corner.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And, you know, when Bethany's telling the story, she's being like, you know, they're young, they're kids. So like, I'm sure they're going to be late. She's just being like a little derogatory the whole time. And then Alex calls her. And she's like, oh my God, is that tonight? She was like, I totally mixed up the dates. Like I'm so, you know, crazy from traveling. I'm so sorry. Super apologetic.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Um, but she got the date wrong and she didn't stand her up. She just like mixed it up. It was a mistake. And Bethany then like decides to just be like, fuck it. You know, I'm having dinner by myself at Carbone. She has this fabulous meal.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
She's taking videos of herself eating, you know, the whole thing being like when somebody stands you up, like be your own independent woman and like have dinner by yourself.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
She's like, well, I'm at this bougie restaurant. Basically the undercurrent being like that you guys could never be at. And so I'm going to eat here for you.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
It's so true. Show me the Tony. So the next day, like the content doesn't stop from Bethany being like, get unready with me, getting stood up by Alex Earle.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Right. So she's just like kind of beating a dead horse. And Alex is like, you know, being, you know, a good sport, leaving comments, being like, oh, yeah, I hear that Alex Earle sucks. And then the next night they get together. Alex brings her like a dozen roses. They make a million TikToks about it, like all good. Now, I just want to say, and I think that I've met Alex Earl a couple of times.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
I do not know her by any means. But, like, the vibe that I got is she's an extremely nice girl. And I do not think, like, the crazy rise to fame has affected her at all. I think she's really down to earth. Her friends from college are still her best friends. Like, she's really... I think she's a... Except for Sandra. I think she's a really, really nice girl. Yes. And I really believe that.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
What do you want me to do? Coach, can I ask you something?
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Yeah. And I think if anything, her fault is maybe she's a little naive. I think that might have been the case with the unwell thing that we've just been talking about. Because if I'm Alex Earl, I'm kind of hating Bethany.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Yeah, and I think that if we never, I wouldn't be surprised if we never see these two interact again. Like Alex wanted to make it right, like go to dinner, like yeah. But I don't know.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
mistakes happen I don't I don't believe in any way that she didn't show up in bad faith and like wanted to stand up Bethany Frankel I think it really was a mix-up she's a young girl she's a lot going on she parties a lot like it happens right and what's the worst feeling than being like someone's at the restaurant in your pajamas like I'm sure she felt fucking horrible like really really horrible so to then like have Bethany make I swear 20 TikToks about it and I'm not even exaggerating and it's just like beating home like this thing you're probably embarrassed about that you feel bad about I just felt like
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Like Bethany did a little too much. And I know Bethany, this is Bethany's shtick. That's why she's as successful as she is. It's like every time something minor happens, like she went to a Chanel store and she said that they turned her away because she looked ugly or whatever. Like she makes it a moment and that's how she's so relevant. It's brilliant like media strategy.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And so this is what she does. And I just feel like if I'm Alex Earl, like I'm a little annoyed. Yeah.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Okay. So one of the absolute blessings of pregnancy is how frequently you have to pee. And for some reason, you have to pee way more at night. And so I'm used to it now. I'm up to about three pees. Every two, three hours I pee. And on Saturday night, I got up to pee. And what's so funny is that... Something woke me up, and then I was like, oh, I'll pee.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
It was a particularly bad take. And Bethany usually is very good.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
It's so not true. And Alex actually over the weekend was doing a Get Ready With Me. Licks? Licks. She on TikTok like very briefly mentioned she's been like there's been like a lot of chatter online like about the podcast and honestly like I'm just as surprised as you guys. That's all she said. Basically being like the drop was surprise to her? I don't know. She really glossed over it.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Well, when it comes to the Bethany thing, like, I just want to say, if we never see these two hanging out again, I think that's why.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
I don't think so. I don't think so. Even the comments at first were like, oh my God, LOL, like fun for fun. And then everybody was like, okay, Bethany, you're really like beating a dead horse. Like, did you have to make 30 TikToks about it? Like, so the narrative started to change. And I'm just, I'm actually really curious what Alex's thoughts on it are.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Like, oh, all in good fun or like, okay, back off a little bit.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025

I open the door to the bathroom, and there's a man in my bathroom coming out of the toilet. And I screamed. I screamed. screamed so loud, like truly, like if you're being kidnapped, like you scream. And then the man is also screaming. And then I'm screaming and the man's screaming.

Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Okay, this is the first I'm hearing of this, but... Is anybody else really shook by her being on People Magazine? I feel like to promote her new Netflix show, she's a former princess, she could have gotten the cover of Vogue. People Magazine, it's very pedestrian.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
W. W, yeah. I'm really shocked. And People Magazine has done a really good job in separating themselves from the other airport magazines. But it is a tabloid.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
No, when you're Meghan Markle, like you're supposed to have options better than this.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Christina Haack has been on the cover of People Magazine.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And I realized very quickly that the man is Ben, which I didn't really understand because three seconds before he was in the bed waking me up with his snoring. So I'm like, how did you get in the toilet? We are screaming off like... The whole thing like seriously never ended. Like scream, I scream, he scream, I scream, he scream. And then I was so petrified, like true fear that I collapsed.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
That was my, because I've never heard the story until you just brought it up. I didn't know that she did this interview. And my first thing was like, lowbrow.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
No, she should have spread it out because she's been like relatively quiet business wise for like the last year or two since the Lemonada podcast was announced. And that would have been a good time for her to do the podcast. You have to space these things out. Yeah. I actually feel like her and Harry are not good at spacing things out.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Like they go dark for a while and then they do book, Netflix, the games. Invictus. Invictus. They do like a million things at once. Yeah, they are just Invictus. And then they overlap so hard and then they go dark. It's like, they need to make the money. So they work hard for six months and then they spend the money for the next year. Like they need to spread it out a little bit better.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Oh my God. Are you going to be, no, today's March 3rd.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Right, and spring starts technically March 21st, right?
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Yes, I saw it on Hulu. I didn't watch it, but I saw that it was there.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
No, and the time has passed. You can take it off. I'm not watching it.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
No, actually, I disagree. I would not agree. I would not, like, if we all sit down on the couch, be like, yeah, let's watch that. I would be a naysayer to that movie.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Yeah, I would say no. Oh, my gosh. Like, first of all, that movie came out and nobody moved. I heard not one thing. I heard not one thing about the movie.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
No, the thing is, is that Ingrid Andres, the whole saga about her being drunk at the All-Star Game, if you don't remember, she sang the National Anthem at the MLB All-Star Game last year so horrifically, so offensively, and she literally dropped a statement being like, I'm an alcoholic. Like, this is rock bottom. See you guys later. And she went to rehab. She's been kind of quiet since.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And now, as a part of her comeback, she sang the national anthem at another baseball game, which I actually think was a really good way for her to come back. It was a hockey game, but sure. Whatever. She did it to the best of her abilities. But the thing is, she never should have been tapped in the first place. She's not that type of singer. She's a very sweet, very... Yes, very like Norah Jones.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Like my body gave out and I totally forgot I was pregnant. I landed on my knees, thank God. I have never been so scared. Except for the last time that happened. This one was worse.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
She doesn't belt. You need like Broadway people sing the national anthem. People with really soulful voices. She never should have been tapped. And so even when she was going to come back and do her best, it still wasn't going to be like good.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
No. And like her best version was never going to be particularly amazing.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Although I think, like, strategy-wise, this was a great way for her to get back out there and, like, kind of right the wrong. There was a lot of ways she could have come back, and I don't know if I would have suggested doing another Ashland anthem, but I kind of love it.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Michio sending well wishes to Ingrid and maybe like let's stay away from sporting events. It's not it's not your thing. Like even sober.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Now let's talk about Love is Blind. Quick TV recap because seriously nothing happened except obviously like so much so much happened for me to hate. And I'm going to, I'm going to.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
There were three episodes released. We started with five couples and we're now down to four. Thankfully, Dave and Lauren broke up because watching them for one more minute, like was so painful. It was actually cruel to make this girl be in a relationship with this guy who just refused to believe her, refused to champion her, refused to defend her.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And meanwhile, she's like a doormat being like, love me, love me. I'll do anything for you. Like it was really painful. So to see her in the smallest way, stick up for herself.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And she didn't even really, cause he broke up with her, but she, she like made him break up with her, which I appreciate because if she just broke up with him, that's exactly what he wanted to like get out of this relationship and So I liked that she made him do it, but I just like, it was really painful to watch somebody like not even remotely stick up for themselves. And she knew she was right.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Like it was, it was such a painful relationship to be a part of. I'm so glad it's over.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
No, I feel like she was really committed to letting this process work slowly. And by the honeymoons, she was open to becoming a...
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
a real couple and I think that if he had let her in more like with and not made the whole drama such a big deal like they probably wouldn't have gotten married but she was really committed to the process like of taking it slow of getting to know getting engaged moving in and he just like refused to move forward once he found out that like she had a boyfriend sorry she slept with somebody like a
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
He was such a prick, and it was just like the obsession with the sister. First of all, we never got the sister. We never got a single one of his friends on the show. And he really made her feel like that was her fault, being like, well, now my sister, nobody wants to be a part of the show because you had sex with somebody two weeks before coming here.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Actually, the last time the roles were reversed, I was on the toilet and it's pitch black. And I like look up for a second and there's a man standing over me. I don't know which one was more scary. This one just feels more scary because it was more recent, but oh my God, I've never felt like such abject terror in my entire fucking life. Like, I was up for an hour afterwards.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And she was like, well, my family didn't really want to be a part of the show, but half of them did, and the ones that didn't agreed to meet you off camera. So, like, why can't anybody come to the table? Everything was Lauren's fault. It was actually painful to watch him, like, seriously. That's really painful.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And then the next couple of nights later, everybody gets together and old people come, Dave and Lauren come, and Molly comes. Molly is the redhead? The redhead. We're very used to people in the pods being in a threesome. And then the couple breaks up and the girl then goes and tries to get with Dave. And let me tell you how refreshing it was to hear Molly and Lauren chat.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Lauren tells Molly the whole story. She's so disgusted. She's so riding hard for Lauren. She doesn't, she's not even remotely interested in, they don't even talk. Like she's not even interested in any of it. It was so refreshing to see somebody like really not like looking out for their own interests, just being like, oh, I'm gonna believe Lauren that this guy sucks and I'm gonna stay away.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Like it was just such a clean, I maybe like Molly so much. And she was like listening to the story so animated, being like, you're kidding. Oh my God, he's disgusting. It just made me like her so much, and it was really refreshing we never get that. Because another example, Madison, Mason, and Meg, the threesome. Hold on. Aunt girl.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Right. Right. So everybody comes to this party, and turns out Meg and Mason have been seeing each other. Like, they connected offline. It sounded like... Like, kind of pargy, you know? Especially because, like, the way that they ended was not right. The thing is, he did choose the other girl first. Like, he did.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Yeah. In this process. Madison is just fucking dreadful. Like she comes to this party and there's so much drama, you know, like she was at the airport and Ben Platt wanted to meet her and they give her a hug. And then he starts talking shit about Mason. She's telling this cockamamie story. She's a liar. I seriously couldn't even follow it.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
well that's the other thing I don't believe anything she says and she's telling this story like she still wants to be the main character of this show and because she didn't get like to the honeymoons she needs to find another way and I still don't care if everything she's saying is true like I still don't give a shit we've seen her lie yeah I just like I don't care and they never even followed up on it like after last night's episodes and then we're at the weddings now so she makes this whole drama and still nobody cares like there's no moving the needle with her she's just like she's not a main character sorry but
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
So Dave and Lauren break up. It was really painful. She actually shares that he went to go see his sister off camera and she wrote a letter to the sister just like explaining who she is and like that she really, really cares about Dave and that everything being said about her is not true.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And she just like really wants a chance to meet the sister and show her that she is going to be an amazing wife. And Dave didn't even give the letter to his sister.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
They're broken up. And now the rest of the episodes are just like the final touches on everybody's couples before the wedding. They do the bachelor parties. They go to the mall as their bachelorette party. It was really sad. Yeah. Oh, and I'm sorry. And they do it. They made it a theme night. Well, I guess the thing in Minnesota that they're known for is the Mall of America. Oh, my God.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Was at the Mall of America. And they also decided to make it a theme night. And they dressed as like old ladies. Mary-Kate and Ashley? Old ladies. They wore like cardigans and pearls. Yeah. That's a thing. It's so funny. Yeah. So let me just give you, let me give you an update on all couples.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
My knees were killing me because I collapsed onto my knees. It was the worst thing that ever happened to me. We now have rules in place. And I'm just like, can I have one thing? Like what, you have to pee in the middle of the night too? Like I'm fucking pregnant. Like I said, first of all, And ever since it happened, I'm very aware that it could happen again.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
I think the couples that we have the strongest chance of seeing get married are of course Monica and Joey, who have really just been having good conversations, making progress, talking about family. Like really, I like them so much.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And they had this really sweet conversation where he was like, I really appreciated the fact that like the first time you met me, people really write me off because I'm really goofy and I have this like positive personality. And they think that you can't be that, but also be like intellectual. And I think people often think he's dumb.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And he was like, I just really appreciated like you seeing me for both sides of who I am. Like I am really smart, but I'm also like goofy Joey. It was so sweet. Jackie, I love these two. They make the show worth watching. And I do think they'll get married. I do.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
No, because Monica and Joey, like, don't end up together in Friends.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
That's funny. But you're also, like, not watching Love is Blind. That's why you're transported. I'm trying. The other couple that I shockingly think has a chance is Shorty and Taco Bell nurse, Taylor and Daniel. Oh, yes. Oh my God, Claudia.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
I mean, if I'm her and he's not mad at me and like making me feel, I love him. No, he was so stalwart.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And let me tell you, they have progressed so nicely. I actually think they might get married. He likes her so much. I think she likes, and this is where like Love is Blind, it's like a good couple for Love is Blind because she had said she probably would have written him off just because of his height. Like it's just, is what it is. And I actually think they're a great couple.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And the whole Christmas thing is really weird. They're like two people who are obsessed with Christmas. No, they come home from Guatemala and they're like, where should I eat my stocking? Jackie, they did their Christmas cards. It's March.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And so I do see how she thought he was like faking it. Right, it's too good to be true. Yeah, it's so nuts. But no, they both are like so obsessed with Christmas and I actually kind of like them. I think that they'll go all the way. I do. I like that. Now we get to like the controversial couples who are probably not getting married. Virginia and Devin. What happened there? They talk.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
In two months. Yeah, like we're almost there. Like usually the first Monday of March, it just reminded me like, yeah, that's something coming up. That's something to look forward to.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
they talk a lot about politics, and it's clear he doesn't say it. Devin and his family are Republicans, and Virginia and her family are Democrats, and it's like, can they get past that? And they're having these political conversations. Nobody wants to say anything, right? I mean, you're on TV.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And I always now pee with the door open. And like I make a lot of sound when I pee just so somebody knows that like a hi, I'm here. So I'm aware of it. Ben is obviously not. So now we have rules in place. I said for the remainder of the pregnancy, like you have to pee in the guest room in the middle of the night. I'm sorry.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Yeah, I know. I'm with you. So they're in bed, and Virginia's clearly trying to bring up politics, and we have to watch 10 minutes of her circling the drain before she brings up abortions, and it's so painful. Just ask the question,
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And then they, he, you know, he doesn't want to say, he basically says that like a lot of his decisions are guided by his faith, which I think he thought was a safe answer because they've really connected over both like being like God loving Christians. And she like immediately hates that because she's seeing like, you know, like pro-life energy. And they're not saying any of this.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
So then he's like, she goes, well, what is your family typically like voting history? He's like, well, my family, and so first of all, just so you know, Devin's dad is black, mom is white, and so he has like a mixed race family. And he says, my family has historically voted pretty conservative.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And then Virginia goes, oh, well, like my family has tended to voted like more progressive, more liberal leaning, you know, because we're black. And I didn't see anybody online being like, that's kind of rude. Like Devin's family is black too. Like it was like, I think the word is colorist. Like it's like a thing in the black community. Like I'm less or more black than you.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
I could tell he was so offended by the remark. And it was just very, it was kind of, he was like, well, my dad is black. Like, what are you trying to say? Like, what are you trying to say? Yeah. And I felt like after that, like they're done. And now I'm seeing so many like flaws because she has this prenup and he comes and reads it, whatever. And he just signs it, you know?
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
No, there should be like private hours of the pods.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And if you do happen to like forget and pee in our bathroom, like pee with the door open, make a lot of sound, like just make yourself known. Don't be like, you know,
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
With Virginia and Devin, I don't think the politics is why they're not going to end up together. I just think it's another. Because you watch them, and she says all the right things. She's so happy. But there's no life behind her smile. She's just sort of going through the emotions of this. I don't think that they'll get married.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
But the opposite is happening with Sarah and Ben, where I think they like each other a lot. I think they really have a lot of potential. He loves her. and she really likes him. And I think she has like, you know, straight woman guilt for liking this guy who like goes to church. Like she's really into her social causes and her politics. And like, that's just not his thing.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
You know, he like is just, but he said in, in like the things that really matter to her, like he would be happy to go to pride with her. Her sister is lesbian. Um, he'd be happy to like, go look at other churches that like are known for being inclusive. Like he's really being flexible. Yeah. And he hasn't said anything. He said like, um, Wait, he said something that was like, my brain.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
He was like, whatever. He was just basically saying like, he hasn't given her anything. He's not as passionate, but they don't inherently disagree on stuff.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
So we get to their wedding right up until like, they're like, Sarah, do you? And then it ends. So we see her family and everything. And so I think that like, who's the first wedding? Sarah and Ben. We haven't seen any weddings yet. Yes. So her sister and the sister's wife are definitely skeptical of the whole thing. And they catch them on camera. I don't think they realize they're on camera.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
They're just waiting for her to come out in the dress. And they're like, I think she's going to say yes. But I think she's only going to say yes because she thinks she has to. They're hating this whole thing. They hate him. They do not want her to get married. Why don't they like him? So it's actually funny because he is very similar to how she grew up.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Her parents are very, like, you know, God-loving Christians. I think they're really excited about the fact that she might end up with somebody who, like, they would approve of. Yeah. It's like an ideal situation for them. So she's kind of torn between, like, how she grew up and then her sister who sort of – I would say like is as it's further from the life that they grew up like knowing.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And so she wants to please both sides. So I think that's what the sister was saying. But I don't think the sister gets is like at the end of the day, like I think Sarah likes him so much. And that just might take that just might be the end all be all.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Yeah. I think they can grow together. Or I feel like he might just be saying, because she brings something up.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Well, I believed him because she wasn't saying anything crazy, being like, my sister's gay. Would you hang out with her? Like, yeah. And then they come home and his best friend is lesbian. Like, it's it's not a thing. But then she brings up on the last day of conversation being like, if, you know, our kid comes home at 12 and says that they want to transition.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
She like and he's just like kind of agreeing with her. And I wasn't buying what he was saying. Like, I think that.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
That's what I think. Everyone's like, what's she going to say? What's she going to say? I'm like, I don't know. I feel like this whole time he might be like placating.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
We'll see. The other couple that remains is who? Did I get them all? I feel like you did. There were five, Dave, Virginia, Monica, Sarah, and Ben. And Shadi. Oh, okay, I got them all. It's so boring. One of the worst seasons I've ever watched. I'm having fun recapping it. I'm having no fun watching it. It's like pulling teeth. I understand.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And I'm not gonna lie, towards the end of this episode, I did start skipping.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
So that's the Love is Blind recap. Wow, that was a long show. We had a lot to do and I think we did it all.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025

The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Well, it happened in our old apartment and we had a nightlight on the floor in the bathroom. Like it's, it's not about that. And I'm actually just want to say, like, I don't feel like this is that crazy. I'm surprised it doesn't happen to more people because like when your partner gets out of bed, like it jostles the bed and like wakes you up and you're like, oh yeah, I'll pee.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And you don't realize that you're jostled because they got up to pee. So I feel like it's not the craziest thing. And the fact that it's happened to me twice now, like sounds crazy, but it's not.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
I'm surprised my doorbell didn't ring with the cops. Good to know that not a single one of my neighbors called the police when two people were screaming for their fucking lives.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
I know it's not the point. It's not the point. But, like, Ben's scream. It was really icky. I was going to say, like, pussy. No, and, like, the pitch and the tenor of it was so. And it's like he's just seeing, like, a small, beautiful woman.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Yeah, and it's like, what are you doing here? Get out of here. No, that's really crazy that he screamed. I had reason to be suspicious about the man in my bathroom.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And now, like, now I can laugh, like, replay, like, his face.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
But in the moment, it was so scary. Like, I couldn't laugh. Now I can. Were you mad at him after? No, no. I was really, really shaken up. Like, I was so afraid. Yes, I had actually went through, like, the real feelings of somebody being kidnapped. Like, your worst nightmare, you wake up and someone's in your house, right? Like, now, thankfully, the person in my house lived there.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
The thing is, is that, you know, actually, I'm glad you brought that up because I go through, I go through eras where like I'm such a hater of things. And it's hard because like your job is to like, you know, watch it all, recap it at all. And no one wants to come on here being like, I hate, hate, hate, hate, hate, hate, hate. And I do. I'm just like a hater to my core.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
But it was, like, the real feelings of it. Do you know what I mean? Yes, and how was Romeo? Yeah. He has been sleeping in the crate because he's pissing us off. So he was a non-factor. I can only imagine what he would have thought. Romeo's POV.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Yeah. And what are, like, solves? Having a second toilet is huge. Like, obviously, like, sorry, your walk is now much longer, but it's not my problem.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Oh, my God. It was the craziest thing that ever happened to me. And then, like, we were just supposed to wake up and be normal. And I... We woke up and went to brunch with Ben's parents. And... I actually had to leave early. I was really feeling dizzy and not okay. I think that the whole traumatic event really took a physical toll on me.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
You might have had a vasovagal. By the way, it was giving vasovagal, exactly. I was feeling really unsteady at brunch and nauseous like I was going to throw up, so I had to leave.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Courtney Kardashian released a statement, and I feel bad. So we have a lot to talk about. Oh, and we're doing Alex Earle, Bethany Frankel. So that's another one of my takes today that I feel like people are not gonna see coming.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Yeah, I know. Hot dogs are not sandwiches. The word moist is weird. No, I would say my hottest take is, It's not even hot. We'll talk about it, okay?
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And the Fast Five stories you need to know are brought to you by Netflix and their new series, Running Point, that I feel like everybody was talking about this weekend. It's now number one on Netflix. I'm sure you guys have heard of it. It's the new comedy series from hitmaker and dream guest host on the toast, Mindy Kaling.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And it stars queen of rom-coms, beloved Hollywood glamazon, her mom was at the Oscars last night, Kate Hudson. So Running Point is really edgy, it's bold, and it's a hilarious twist on the underdog comedy. It features Isla Gordon's rise to the top as one of the most iconic professional basketball franchises, and her dysfunctional yet lovable family trying to block her shot.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
But yes, I have been very mainstream, like watching everything on TV these days. It's more so pregnancy. Yeah, even though the Oscars was one of those miserable experiences, do you know how grateful I was to have to watch something that I could live tweet and be a part? The activities don't come as easily as they used to.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
So a scandal forces her brother to resign, and then Isla, who's played by Kate Hudson, is appointed to president of the LA Waves, which is one of the most storied professional basketball franchises, and it's her family's business. She's ambitious. She's often overlooked.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
Isla will have to prove to her skeptical brothers, the board, and the larger sports community, especially two big sports podcasters like ourselves, that she was the right choice for the job, especially in the unpredictable, male-dominated world of sports. She may not have been a part of the original playbook, but as the skeptics will soon learn, she's calling all the shots now.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
So like it or not, she's here. It's a really fun and easy binge. It's sharp and edgy laugh out loud moments. It's star studded with some of your faves. My fave from the other two is in it. I love to see him on my screen. Mindy Kaling's a genius. Everything she puts her stamp of approval on, like you know it's gonna be good.
The Toast
Oscar is Blind: Monday, March 3rd, 2025
And Running Point is truly an example of that because just watch it, you'll love it. And it's now on Netflix, so you can watch it now. Again, it's called Running Point. It stars... Kate Hudson, and it's written by Mindy Kaling, and you can watch it now on Netflix, wherever you do that, phone, tablet, computer, you know. Today's episode is also brought to you by Nutrafol.

Now, before we dive into the Oscars, because I did spend like, you know, the latter six months, not latter, former six months of my life watching these movies. And I want to talk about my thoughts on them, right? Like, because I have a lot. I saw a lot of the movies, the winners, things like that.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Today's episode is also brought to you by Shipsticks, which is like a little bit triggering for me because I'm obviously at a place in my life where I can't ski. But I took the plunge like last year and taught myself. I took a lesson, but I learned how to ski and it was so much fun.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
But one of the hard parts about skiing is like how much work it requires before, during and after, like with the equipment. And Shipskis is such a fabulous company because they're just taking a lot of the treachery out of skiing. So There are so many inconveniences when it comes to bringing luggage, ski gear, snow gear when you go skiing, like the bulky suitcases, the back-breaking equipment.
The Toast

The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Oh, that's so funny. I saw the vision board, obviously, because Meghan's content is the first thing that pops up for me. And I didn't... receive it as a product tease. I actually didn't even know what I was looking at.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
How many ways can you eat a carrot? What kind of business are you in? What kind of business y'all in? Is this a food company?
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Okay, like now we've entered Chewgalicious territory. Chewgalicious millennial.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Oh, risque, Megan. Now, I'm obviously left with questions.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
I saw Sienna was also making some news. Did you see her TikToks? She's like sharing receipts, Whitney text messages. She's like all on TikTok. No. That's why for like the Southern Charm stan in you, you need to get on TikTok. What is she saying? What does she have to prove? You know, this is like not English to me because I don't watch the show. So I don't know. But everyone was talking about it.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
I really don't know what to say. Did you see the company that's also named as ever, like getting involved? That's like so classic.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Do you know that that company went out of business?
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Yeah. When Hailey Bieber announced her skincare line, like this dress company named R-H-O-D-E was like, that's our name. And people don't understand that you actually can have the same name for a company if the companies sell different things. So Megan's trademark on as ever jams or whatever the hell it is, does not infringe on as ever NYC, which is like a jacket company.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Yeah, but they're like obviously like loving being the victims, like posting on social media as road did the dress company as well. It's kind of people's favorite tropes to play into on social media. Like a celebrity stole my brand.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Yeah, for sure. I do feel like it's a trope that's getting a little tired, at least for me.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Unless it's like your name, like Monique Lulier. No, like your first and last name, Monique Lulier. Like, okay, that one you can have.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
But they can't. That's the point. If they're doing the same category. And that's tough. Now, this vision board for me did not really help in what I'm seeking, which is clarity on what the hell this brand is, because it's kind of giving hodgepodge.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
A lot of produce, no meat. Think about how much money went into this one particular post in terms of creative agencies that they hired, social media strategy companies, social media managers, actually physically making the board. And it makes me sad because I don't know what the intended effect was, but it's not reading, at least for me. But sound off in the comments.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
How did you interpret this kind of Picasso thing?
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
And... Can you make a prediction? Like, is this a jam company? Is that what it's supposed to be the whole time? It's not just jam.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Oh, W-A-R. I thought you were about to ask me a question.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
With Love. I don't know. With Ever As Love Megan. I'm stumped. And I don't think that was the intended effect. That's the thing. I think that they hired all these different social media companies to tell us what's going on.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
And I think what she wanted to share was like text messages from Whitney.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Is that why you started a podcast with me? Stay close to people who remind you of sunshine?
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Me in my dark sunglasses, my black shirt, my black hair, my black pants. You feel like sunshine.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
It was Megan in the kitchen with a knife. With a carrot.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Like maybe it wasn't just like a match on Raya.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
I love this for so many reasons. One, like the Gossip Girl connection between Kristen Bell and do you think they ever met like during the Gossip Girl days?
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
I'll download and send it to you. Somebody please tag me in it and I'll send it to Jackie.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Yeah, because Kristen Bell was just doing voiceover work. So she probably was never on set. She was like in LA. So there's like that millennial connection. Of course, it's her husband's show. Also, these two people just lost their house. Like they kind of need work.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Oh, you didn't watch it? No. That's so weird of you.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
You literally talked about it yesterday. I know. No, you have to watch it. I told you, it was really cute and good.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
I can tell you it was good. I really enjoyed it.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
The thing is, what mood are you in? You're so unpredictable. If you watch it with your husband, I think your husband would really like it. My husband liked it, too. I don't know. You're so unpredictable. You're kind of just like this firecracker.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Because we're so protective and critical of anything that represents Judaism in modern media, because it's overwhelmingly bad. But I trust Aaron Foster. And obviously, if it was my show, I could have made different things about the Judaism. But overall, it wasn't offensive at all. And I thought it painted us in a nice light.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
No, no, I think you'll like it. And I'm looking forward to season two as well.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Yeah, and their podcast really takes off over the course of the show. So now they're big time magazine editors.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
life imitating art also i like that leighton meester is joining the show because now she's gonna be forced to do press with her husband and like we get nothing from them they're like so private um and now they're probably gonna be doing like junkets and things yeah and then well and then miles fowler is the other person who was cast and he is um a matzo ballers teammate who gets set up with morgan who's justine loop from succession and luckiest girl alive who is she in luckiest girl alive
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
best friend in the city oh yeah so he's playing someone who dates her set gets set up who knows what happens okay okay and matzo ballers is that like their bowling league uh is that his teammate that's not a basketball oh yeah yeah he plays like intramural that was funny yeah that's so classic like jewish guy playing intramural league at like a local high school basketball 100 yeah i forgot about the matzo ballers yeah my husband is a matzo baller it's called hail the league
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Well, there's two. There's Hale and Rael, the two different Jewish schools. Ben, you're actually, the thing that I said is that. So there's the Alumni Intramural League, Hale, for two different schools, Hale and Rael. Ben went to Hale. I went to Rael. And if you're an alumni of that school, you can join the league. And as an alumni husband, does he get to join? No. When I met him, he was in rail.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
I'm like, you're in my alumni intramural league? How did you get in there? You know, Ben, like swindler, networker. And it turns out the commissioner, they take it really seriously. The commissioner of rail, my high school's alumni intramural league, is Abe, who I talk about all the time, his brother. So like we had a netbook connection.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Yeah. I think also like the league is expensive to run. And if anybody wants to pay like the fee, like you're welcome to come.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Mason. Yeah. Now I pretty much know everyone's names, which is such a relief. And I do want to tell you, like, I'm going to recap and you're going to have, you're going to have to be okay with the spoilers. Cause I don't care. And you know what? Maybe you could just skip to episode six. Like I have to tell you what happened.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
The last time Ben, so there's the season, so it's not all year round. So Ben does like pickup games. A lot of the gyms in the city have basketball courts. If you show up, there's usually a game going on. And Ben got invited to a game. Oh yeah, did I tell the story on the toast? I don't know. And Ben got home early. I'm like, wait, what happened to your game? This is what happened to me.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
And he was like, I literally walked off the court. I'm like, oh, drama, like tension. He's like, no, somebody call me tubby. And I'm like, what? He was like, yeah. And I wanted to like start a fight. I'm like, what am I doing here? And he just left. I'm like, that's very mature of you. But like, I seriously would have beat the crap out of the guy. And it was like someone we like loosely know.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Cause it was like a Ben's friend. This guy. Who? I don't know. I have to remember, but I hadn't heard of him, but like he was from the community. Somebody called him tubby.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
No, Ben literally was like, it was so mature. I'm like, what are you doing home early? He's like, I walked off the court. Like there was some drama. I'm like, what was the drama? Like I assumed it didn't involve him. He was like somebody that called me fat. I'm like, what?
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Yeah. And then we were like looking at the guy. I don't know him, but I was like looking up his social media. Like literally I wanted to dox him.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
I think you should, on the content plate.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Period. The Fosters have been like making news. They're adapting Tinks' upcoming book into like, I don't know if it's a TV show or a movie, but it's like a sexy smut book about like a hot girl in the Hamptons. I love.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Good morning, millennials, and welcome back to the Toast and... Ha... Friday. Happy Friday. She didn't lie. It's Friday. And it doesn't even feel like Friday when I've had such an amazing week.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
I have a question. For the Foster Sisters. Because you know who I've never met? Simon. Aaron's husband. Okay. And I feel like he must be this amazing guy because Aaron converted for him. And she wrote a show about him. Wrote a show. And the whole family like loves him so much. Like Sarah's always posting. And I'm like, he must be an amazing guy.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Oh, my God. Give me the iPad. Daniel Meade is in the slammer. For anyone who doesn't. If you don't watch Ugly Betty, first of all, go do it. I think it's on Hulu. Yeah, educate yourself. He plays the guy who hires Betty and gives her a chance. And he's like the best guy. He's like this nepo baby.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Oh my God, if you're watching on YouTube, I'm showing everyone the mugshot. Time has not been kind to Daniel Meade.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
He also looks like, A resident of Whoville. Maybe his face is just like swollen. He got punched or something.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
He also looks like he could use a gua sha, which I'm feeling a little subconscious about because I didn't gua sha on my face this morning. Everyone's talking about it. And what are the circumstances of his arrest? Who did he assault? I will let you know. That's seriously so random. What also is his name?
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Maybe, I mean... Being on a show like Betty is such a curse, right? A blessing and a curse. Because it was like eight years. I'm sure it was very high paying. It was so popular at the time. It like lives in infamy. And a lot of them went on to do great things. America Ferreira. I've Got Beef Between My Teeth, Justin. And Dana Mead, Judith Light, Vanessa Williams. Like really star studded.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Rebecca Romijn. Rebecca Romijn. Caleb Nichol. And Mark of Mark and Amanda just won an Emmy. for something, he's in a show that I don't watch. And now they have their podcast. They have their podcast and he's in Younger, he was the book agent. So everybody's booked and busy except for Daniel Mead. So maybe that's what led to this turmoil.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Oh, I never watched that show. But yeah, he was on a rise to fame when like those sitcom type like ABC, NBC.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Okay, because at first when you started reading, it sounded like he was being a hero. Like his friend was being obnoxious, but he was defending his girlfriend. But then his girlfriend wanted to spit on another patron and the patron was like, can you fuck all the way off? And instead of escorting his friend out, he decided to beat up this woman.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
That's so embarrassing. Oh my God. That's really awful. Because we were just talking about bar fights as it pertained to Zach Bryan. And I feel like when you're a man doing bar fights, you really need to limit your opponents to other men who are like stocky and short like you.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
It's literally the dumbest, worst people on the planet being dumb and losery. And that's my joy. Yeah. Why I would want to strip that from myself. I don't know. I'm so happy to be almost caught up. I haven't gotten to the Instagram thing, but I can pretty much surmise based on like social media. And this particular season like is not amazing. So I'm happy.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
An option. Yeah, me neither because there's etiquette around like an appropriate bar fight and how to like come out looking like a man. And when I think about bar fights, I think about, of course, Snooki. She was punched by a man. That's why it was so unacceptable. It brought the whole house together.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Despicable. Oh, my God. Daniel Meade. So important to separate like the act from the actor. What are you looking at?
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
No. It's like that episode of Breaking Bad. I know. You want sunglasses? I can't see the fly.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Oh, I just have all my ailments right now. I haven't even focused on my head. I guess my head is throbbing. Yes, thank you for pointing that out.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Yeah. Normalized, like being nominated for an award and wanting to win it. I just feel like up until this point, people in Hollywood have really been conditioned to say like, it's just an, I think you have to be, so gracious when you lose. And it's okay to want things for yourself and feel like you earned them after hard work.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
And I love that she's saying what we had said, but she's saying it in a much more eloquent way. And yes, that's exactly what I was saying when we were talking about Kacey Musgraves and then Luke Combs. It's been coming up a lot. It's okay to want things for yourself. It doesn't make you a bad person.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
I go on Twitter and like I spoil stuff for myself. Usually I'm like really kind of precious about that. Not this time.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Like everybody wants to win things. So I like that. I like that too. And I didn't know that this is, obviously like her Roman Empire, right? Like the year she was nominated. And I guess it was a really big deal because she was nominated for like a Marvel movie, Black Panther, which those movies don't really typically get like lead actor nominations.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Which would have just been a huge deal. So, like, it's okay to want to make history. Like, why would anybody – I hate this whole thing. Like, just if I ever, ever in my life got nominated for an award and I didn't win, like, I'm mad. And you're going to know. Like, I'm going to be upset. I'm also going to be confused. I'm going to be like, she sucks.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Yeah. So I champion this sort of rhetoric, and I'm just like, maybe it's the Bonnie Blue in me, but I'm just really over, like, supporting people, you know?

That's why also those awards are tough because these are like, different arts and they're subjective. Who's to say that one movie's better than the other? Everybody has their own opinions. Other competitive things like sports, there's an outcome. The winner has more points. It's more linear, whereas putting so much stock in the opinions of these freaks who are totally lining their pockets.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
It's so political and it's so subjective that even if you win, it's like, says who? Yeah.

Not a good season for Vanita. She drowned and she missed her flight.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
That's why the show is good, by the way. That's what the Vanderpump Rules ecosystem was like for a while.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
You're supposed to be like impressing this girl.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Yeah. She picks out an outfit for him. I kind of like how she's like rolling them with an iron fist.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
OK, but like this is kind of the journey Shep needs to go on.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
I don't know if I feel like in that kind of a mood, but I definitely feel like. I'm saying happy Friday in earnest. Like the weekend is ahead. I'm sad because I am leaving town today. My time has come.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
So I think it needs to be like the most obvious, like foolproof spot in order for that thing to work. And like, those are the spots that we could do. You know, that's when you don't need the button.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
It's a little different than 46, but that's really crazy.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Of course, she's just going to be there like a shoulder to cry on.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
So let me tell you about Southern Charm. Love is blind. Excuse me. I was really close to giving up. We need Love is Blind Charleston. But OK, continue. We do. That's a great call.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
But there's a couple of like love triangles, love rhombuses that now that I know who the players are and they're clearly like leaving people behind and we know who we're going to be following this season, it's a lot easier to follow. So the first love triangle rhombus is Madison. With Ben Platt and Mason. With Ben Platt and Mason. Now, she very clearly likes Ben Platt better. You think? Yes.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
And in the episodes that I watched last night, she chooses Ben Platt. Wow. Well, that's good for the show because that leaves Mason to choose the other girl. Just wait. So Madison opened up. She didn't say that she like had experienced bouts of depression, but she said like there are periods where like I really like have no energy and I can't get out of bed and I like forget things.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
It was just like she struggles with depression. And he was like not supportive. She was like, is that going to be an issue for you? He was like, I don't know.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
No, they worked through that. Okay, okay. They're so therapy talk. I was like, did I miss that? I was on my phone. I was on my phone so much. Actually, me and Ben rewinded twice because he was being weird. We're like, wait, what is he being weird about?
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Yeah, but it's very obvious that she likes him more. And she's going around telling Mason that he's playing two girls. She's literally the thing that she's mad at. She is... it's been very clear to me that she likes Ben Platt better. And it's her and Ben Platt told each other that.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
So like she goes to break up with Mason and she's being so manipulative and patronizing being like, you had two good things and you might've lost both. You don't even care. You don't like him. That's really crazy. And then she's speaking on behalf of the other girl. And the other girl really likes him. Yeah. Ant farm girl. Yeah. Meg.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
So when she gets back to the lounge and she's like, I told him like he might lose. Oh, she's ant farm? Yes. She actually grew on me a lot. I like her energy. She gets back to the lounge and she was like, yeah, I told him he might lose both of us. And she's like, wait, what? Like, I like him. She's just being nuts. And she's like coming at it from such like a moral high ground.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
I actually really do not like her anymore.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Yes. And I actually think her and Ben Platt are perfect for one another.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Oh, I'm sorry. Yeah, thank you. I'm all over the place. Meg is her name. She looks like a Sarah. So Mason, when he's getting broken up with, he does the classic thing. He's like, you know what? I shouldn't have validated you and committed myself to you because once I said it, it really didn't feel right. I think Megan's my girl. Okay. Say what you need to say. And Madison was like, sure.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
And then he said that to Meg, and she was like, I know she wanted to believe it because she really likes him, but she had too much respect for herself, and I really respected it. She was like, no, I'm sorry. I'm out. Okay. I just don't believe you. I don't want to be the winner by default. Like that's what the one thing I promised myself when I come here is like, I want to be chosen by someone.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
And like, you literally deaf textbook definition did not choose me. So it was like a painful conversation. No one ever does that. I know. So I had, cause they just want to be on TV. So I had a lot of respect for her. And I know that was, she really liked him, but I think she dodged a fucking bullet.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Because the second he saw that he wasn't going to get Madison, like, he was giving major thirsty vibes. Like if he was a girl, we would have been like, ew, thirsty. She wants to, that's him, ick.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
So then my personal favorite love triangle was D. Buck, B. Dot, and Virginia. And it was pretty clear to me that Devin liked Brittany more. Maybe we were just seeing more of their conversations, but they really had such a good friendship with the basketball connection. And then this date happens where two insane things happen.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
The first is that she shares that she like is attracted to and like sees women, but she'll never marry a woman. And that's not how she sees her life. Like, but he was like, but you're interested in women. She was like, kind of feel like she was still figuring out her journey. And you could just tell like the second, like he was not into it.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Like people have their preferences and that's just not his. Like you could tell he stopped liking her in that minute. But I got B dot, but they have a really good friendship. Like I actually think because they have a really common interest. I think that's more that we were seeing, like they were really good buddies.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Um, he decides to open up to her about something that he went through and we watch him tell this story and we actually watch him say it twice. Cause he also says it to Virginia, the other girl he likes. And the first time I heard it, I was like, I must have missed that because I'm on my phone so much.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
The show is so dreadful that when the time came that he starts telling Virginia the story, I put my phone down and I listened completely. And I said, oh my God, no, I did hear that right. And then I also went to Twitter to see if anybody else was talking about it. Now the story starts, it's kind of a tale as old as time. It was reminding me a lot of Demon Copperhead. He's an athlete.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
I think he wanted to play professional basketball, maybe go to college, get a scholarship. And when he was in high school, he suffered a really bad back injury. And that's literally how it starts in Demon Copperhead. So many young guys and girls in like that region. Like it was really, it was getting Demon Copperhead. So he went to all these doctors. Nobody could, nobody could help him.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
And so he started to self-medicate, like as a lot of people do. And he's self-medicating and he's having really dark thoughts and he starts taking, you know, two Advil and then four Advil and then six Advil. And I'm waiting for him to say, and then I switched to Percocet and Vicodin. No, then I take 10 Advil a day and then I take 12.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
And, you know, and then a couple months in, I find myself, I'm taking 20 Advil a day. And so he's saying ibuprofen, ibuprofen. And I'm like, so you, You're taking Advil? You're taking Tylenol. That's what you're overdosing on. Jackie's telling the story. He's crying Britanny when she's hearing the story, choking on her sobs. And I'm like, are you, ibuprofen? Are we talking about Advil?
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
And me and Ben are looking at each other. We're like, what the fuck? Then he tells the story again to Virginia. And he says, 10, 12, 14 ibuprofen a day. And we're like, is ibuprofen code for something? Or like, are you really trying to tell me you overdosed on Advil? I go on Twitter. People are like, wait, I thought this guy was talking about like Percocet.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Jackie, me and Ben are laughing so hard. And then he's like, wait, 20 Advil a day? That's four Advil every five hours. That's like literally not crazy. It's a lot. Ben's like, I think my dad does that. Like, it's seriously not a big deal. Oh, my God. I was reading these tweets wheezing in my sleep because people were just like, we all had this general confusion. Like, are you talking about Advil?
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
And using like the generic term for it, ibuprofen. Is that a code word for something?
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
She could seriously just like cruise out of here.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Yeah, of course. So your big tragedy is you overdosed on Advil. I was floored, so confused. And then his love triangle really like sifted itself out because once Britanny said, like, I like girls, that was just not, the choice was made. And he ends up with Virginia. And I actually think that they might, they have potential. Based on what I've seen, I think they've got a shot.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
You mean this? Cut to my camera. The whole time she's squatting. She's like, what is this? She's like, wait, wait, what? She must have the strongest legs on the planet. Was she perpendicular? The whole time she was looking at the floor. She was like the letter L upside down. When she went back into her room, she's folding over. Nope. I actually think she's a really tall girl.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
I think she's a little self-conscious about her height because she was wearing little heels.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Yeah. Because she's literally on the floor. But you agree, like I really felt like I could see their personalities matching up in their reveal. They're both weird.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Jackie, you're telling me. The squatting. The folded over. He could rest a drink on her back. I need to talk about another couple. And they're definitely my least favorite.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
yeah and that just might be how like i think a lot of tall girls find themselves making themselves smaller it was beyond that it was no they like and also they have like bad posture too she was just like physically bent over yeah crawling totally now are people talking about that i am the thing i need to talk about is the girl with the gay sister and the catholic husband
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
I'm not all the way there, but go ahead. So they get engaged. Her name is Sarah. His name is Ben. But not Ben Platt. No, no, no. He's a real Ben. There probably aren't two people less compatible with one another than these two. And I find that so many times we find out after a season, there were actually five more engaged couples and we never heard about them.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
That's terrible. So, all in all, it has been a great week of commuting, though. It really has. Can I totally ask you a random question? Do you know who Robbie Hoffman is? No. I didn't think that you would.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
They ended up on the cutting room floor. These two were so meant for the cutting room floor. They're so uninteresting. My dad likes steak.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
And on like the big foundational things, like they, she thinks organized religion is like the worst thing ever. He is obsessed with his faith.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
You obviously don't have to be on the same religious level as your partner, but like on huge things, they really don't agree on. She is like this big time social justice warrior. He doesn't give a fuck about anything that goes on in the world. He didn't even vote. Like, Core things they don't align with. And then their personalities are so different. They literally are not a good couple.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
I don't know why they got together. I don't know why we're choosing to follow them. They are so meant to end up on the cutting room floor.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
No, and the thing is, is like her social causes are the most important thing in the world to her. So much so that like, I think she goes into the pods knowing she's about to get engaged. And like before he has the opportunity to say it, she's like, I just need to know that like these social causes are important to you. When he's literally said that they're not. Like he didn't even vote.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
And she's like, I just need to know that you have empathy and that you agree with me. And he's like, listen, it's not your job to teach me about these things, but I'm open. It was so cringe. actually like you are not compatible with this person. Like that's okay. And then we saw their reveal and it was just like, I don't know why I'm watching these two people. Like they have no chemistry.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Well, the thing is the true fast forward couple is Taylor and Short King.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
daniel except drama that they're the drama now i haven't gotten to the part where she discovers the thing about instagram but they have this conversation that's really weird and their conversations are so boring i actually watch them the least like i just scroll on my phone and they're talking about instagram and then i started listening because i know that they're the instagram couple and he's like what's your username and she's like t.hats or whatever and he's like oh yeah i don't follow you
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Nobody asked. And he was like, yeah, because I have a weird memory. I remember people's usernames and their profile pictures. It goes to your stalker. And she's like, but you know mine? He's like, no, no, I don't know it. It was such a weird conversation. And I'm sure if there hadn't been like that social media drama that comes up, it would have been cut. But it is weird.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
I have to see. So I still have like 30 minutes left in the final pod episode. And I don't know. I haven't seen that drama yet.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
But I don't think they're so well-matched. I don't think it'll be hard for them to break up. If this is some big scandal or whatever... It's not the great love that we think it is. The final love triangle is between medical aesthetics Dave and the two girls. Lauren, the teacher. Oh, I haven't seen them in a while. Molly Redhead. I forgot. I forgot. I haven't seen them yesterday.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
She did something recently. She was on The Good Guys. Okay, no. What else did she do? She dates Gabby Windy from The Bachelor. That's how I know.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
So he is like... I had gotten the vibe that Molly was so his number one. And Lauren could not stand a chance. And he tells Molly that... She's the number one. And Molly goes back to lounge and like is really excited about it. And like Lauren has such a fucking chip on her shoulder about the fact that she knows who her guy is also seeing. A lot of the girls don't know the guy side.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
They don't say a word like they nobody knows. And the girls are like, you know, chit chatting it up at night building forts. It was so stupid. They built a fort. And so she just has such a chip on her shoulder that, like, she knows who the other girl is. And she's, like, kind of being, like, a miserable bitch about it. And I actually can't stand her. And it made me start rooting for Molly.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
And Dave did say, Molly, you're my number one. So I'm like, all right, so break up with Lauren. So she comes in one day. And she's just, like, had enough, you know? And she gives an ultimatum. And she's being such, like, seriously, if that was me, I would run from her. I'm like, that's – she was just giving such – like, well, I heard you told your number one that you're gonna break up with me.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
And it's like, well, if that's what he said, he said it and you should like save face and break up with him first. Like she was being so mean when she went in there. But then he's like, wait, no, I didn't say that. Now he did say that you're his number one. He didn't say he was gonna break up with her. Molly went in and was like, he's breaking up with the other girl. He didn't really say that.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
And he ends up choosing Lauren. I was so confused. He breaks up with Molly and Molly this whole time has been like cool calm collected being like listen I want to be chosen so I'm giving you the space to figure it out.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
If it's not me just like let me know but I want you to be happy and so the whole time she's so cool and she's so chill and she's like they're not a good match the teacher and the classmate
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
So people this week have been like, Claudia, you look like Robbie Hoffman. And Ben just met Robbie Hoffman because she came on The Good Guys and Ben was obsessed with her. She's like this former, like really Orthodox Jew who has like kind of taken on this new era of her life. She's still actually pretty religious. They had talked about it. She's really interesting on Good Guys.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
When Devin broke up with Britanny and he was, she was like, listen, I think the other girl you're seeing is Virginia. I thought she was going to start saying nasty things. Cause like Lauren was saying nasty things about Molly. They're all, the girls are so manipulative. Brittany was like, she's amazing. Like you're going to love her. It was actually so sweet. It made me like her so much.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Like she went out with such class being like, you guys are actually really well suited. You're going to be just really happy together. And I'm really happy for you. So I really feel like they were more friends. That's really, really sweet.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Yeah, no, it was really sweet. I won't admit it. Especially when you see these other women like Madison, like trying to be sweet, like, oh, Meg, like she's, they're such bitches. Like they really are. And all in this, all of the name of being like, I support other women.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
Even when you say your job, like when Virginia's like, I'm a former NBA dancer. But that is her job. Ben was like, is that cheating? I'm like, no.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
He's the kicker. Yeah, right. Yeah. So I'm gonna keep watching, loving every minute, love is blind, I'll see you guys on Monday. Try and catch up over the weekend so we can be all caught up together.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025

The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025

Relevance? Yeah, and... Like, I'll tell you, there's a little bit more context why I swallowed the sentence, but like, I'm not in the mood to get into it. But like, all in all, it's important to know when you're about to say something uninteresting. It's never too late to turn, turn the beat around. Like, it's never too late to stop sharing the uninteresting thing you were about to say.
The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
And I just did that. I'm woman enough to admit not everything I say is interesting.

It's more of a see you later.

Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025

Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
I don't think so. Okay. I'm glad you brought that up. I don't think people who lived through World War I were picking up books about it a few years later. That's what I'll say. Time and place. It's not the time. Maybe our children will want to read about the pandemic. I don't think they will.

The Toast
Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025
A hundred percent. Like I'm a hundred percent. Do not only like speak about antisemitism when it serves you as like some sort of social justice warrior. When Jewish children are murdered by terrorists in cold blood with their own two hands and you can't speak up, you actually have an antisemitism issue within. And I highly suggest reflecting on that.

Summer Charm is Blind: Friday, February 21st, 2025

Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
It was literally, it was such a big rumor last year, I thought it was real.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
What was the story here? I'm sorry. Like I totally.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
Right. So I want to say that a part of whenever we're analyzing their relationship, which is a lot, we don't talk enough about like the potential for her music comeback. And I don't think that's of great interest to her. Like she crushes it in other, you know, the acting, Rare Beauty, but her music has suffered like majorly in the last couple of years. Yeah.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
And he is like the hit maker of Hollywood. So it's kind of like a party duo. I don't think that's why she's dating him, but.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
I bet it's much better than the stuff she's been putting out. So for that, like that's a, that's a bonus. That's a plus.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
I love a good rhyme. Yeah. You know, I feel like that lyric was inspired by RhymeZone.com. Yeah, like RhymeZone.com slash fast.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
No, I agree with you that like her current career, it's funny how so many of the pop girls, because I also watched Lady Gaga's Super Bowl performance, which is... Perfection. It's perfection. Like, when she gets up on the piano and does Million Reasons and everybody has, like, candles in the air, it's seriously, like, good luck not crying.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
But it's so interesting how, like, so many of the big pop girlies, like, left that pop scene to do acting. Like, if I could do either, like, I would so want to be a pop star.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
Gaga, Ariana now, Selena. Like, you could, like, acting...
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
sounds ms honestly like it's so awkward having to like kiss other people and pretend to be like like my name is mabel no it's not it's fucking selena gomez like it just doesn't sound fun whereas being a pop star is a dream yeah like if i can see anything in the world i would want to be a pop star yeah that's when they like lady gaga has always been one of my favorites and as an actress like she just leaves me she leaves me behind she doesn't lose me but i'm just like i'm gone yeah you're not like standing the acting yeah same even with kim
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
Yes, exactly. Why people like want to become actors who are really successful in other things, especially like women in Hollywood.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
No, I'm not. You don't look ready. Is it the fourth story that's brought to you by Smart Mouth perchance? It is. Smart Mouth is the only mouthwash scientifically proven to eliminate and prevent bad breath for 24 hours with just two rinses a day. SmartMouth prevents bad breath 12 times longer than the leading brand, and it's basically confidence in a bottle.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
A unique dual-chamber bottle keeps their two powerful solutions separate until you're ready to rinse. Once you pour the bottle over, the two solutions will go into the same cup, mix, and activate the SmartZinc technology. This zinc ion activation is the key to eliminating and preventing sulfur gas, which is the scientific term for bad breath, and it's the secret to all-day fresh breath.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
Smart Mouth can be trusted. It was developed by a dentist and it is dentist recommended. And I just like love that there is a company out there committed to fixing bad breath. I think a lot of the options out there up until this point, like mouthwash, toothpaste, mints, it just masks the sulfur, if you will.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
But we need to target the root cause, like actually get down to the bottom of it as somebody who like is so triggered by other people's breath and is worried constantly about having bad breath. Smart Mouth is a brand, like it's a cause driven brand and the cause means a lot to me. If you never want to have bad breath again,
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
That's actually now a possibility, or if you want to buy it for someone in your life who could definitely use it.

But when it comes to buying it, things don't always go as smoothly. There are limited selections. There are long wait times. There are sky high prices.

Go to bluenile.com today. That's B-L-U-E-N-I-L-E.com. Today's episode is also brought to you by The Flip Off. Have you been watching HGTV's buzzy new series, The Flip Off? It is so good, we can't wait for the next episode, and we can't wait for the news that's gonna come out of it that we can recap on the show. So if you haven't tuned in yet, the scoop is Christina Tarek. You guys know them.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
They were married, king and queen of flipping shows, then they got divorced. Now, after 10 years of history and drama and new marriages, the exes are ready to face off to prove who's the best flipper around in the flip-off. It's Tarek and his new wife, who we all know Heather, against Christina, and their goal is to flip a house with the biggest payoff.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
So it's really HGTV at its best, but it's not just about the flips. There's obviously stunning transformations, competitive banter, but there's also some really deeply raw and at times uncomfortable personal moments. Actually, during the show, Christina and her now ex-husband, Josh Hall, filed for divorce. He's out of the show. So it's really real and gritty.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
In this week's episode, things are getting even juicier because Christina calls in her second ex-husband, Ant Anstead, to judge the guest suite. So you heard that right. Three ex-husbands in one show. The drama is real. But let's not forget the heart of the series, the transformations.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
Christina and Heather's design chops and eye for style really elevate this new series with high design that you don't see everywhere. Their mastery as real estate experts, flippers, and entrepreneurs is on full display. They've spent years honing their craft, and it really shows. There are only two more episodes left in the flip-off. I'm going to miss it when it goes. Catch the latest episode.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
I know. They will. I feel like everybody's talking about the flip-off. Like, no cap.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
We were talking about it yesterday in May News. But, like, we would talk about it. But I think everybody else would talk about it, too. Yeah. Catch the latest episode this Wednesday night at eight, seven central on HGTV and check out this one of a kind competition. If you haven't tuned in yet, you can get caught up on the episodes on max. I'm telling you, you don't want to miss it.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
Especially if you want to know like what's going on on the toast, you have to watch a flip off to keep up.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
So I feel like it means she regrets taking Blake's side. I don't know if that was like her truth at the time, but I think it's like, it doesn't matter. It's not worth the backlash. And also once she... stepped in it and like got herself involved. She's like a major player here. Like this is her story. It's her mother's. Well, it's, it's inspired by her mother's story, but it's her book.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
So when she took a side, it was like kind of a big deal, but she received a lot of backlash in the form of, um, rumors and gossip about an incident with her son. Yeah. So I think that's why she had initially deactivated it. She, she took Blake's side. And then this had been a story that would have been like whispered about on the internet.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
I had seen it like on Tik TOK, but apparently there was an incident with her son. He was accused of like sexual harassment or sexual assault and Colleen and her and his and her family, like obviously, you know, protected the son. And I think kind of maybe it's something weird, like the, and so it's been this, and she kind of,
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
put her and her family right at the center of this media war and took Blake's side. I think she didn't like the feedback she received. She deactivated her social media. Now she's back. She can't really not be on social media. She's an active part of not only this film, but like all of her books are currently being made into different movies with different, partners and different celebrities.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
Jackie keeps acting like she grew up in Boise. She's in the studio. She's like, yeah, big city slicker. It's like you literally grew up in Manhattan.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
And so she's, she goes to like book-a-thon.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
methodical, using other people as pawns.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
No, but also when she did get involved, it was like a part of this big wave of momentum, right? Everybody was team Blake. Yeah. And then Paul Feig and Jenny Slate. So it was kind of like, it's easy to be, speak out on someone's behalf when everyone's doing it.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
And so I don't think they foresaw it turning so quickly back to team Justin and an anti-Blake Colleen rhetoric. So I think she thought like it was kind of going to be the end of it, but it starts.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
Like she doesn't have a real power. No, she's very much like a front facing part of this. Like people, they use her for media and press and it's like exciting. She's like a woman's story. But she doesn't have real input.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
And to get your book made, she really is, like, before all this, it was, I remember they did, like, a New York Times profile on her and it was, like, that particular year she sold two million books. Like, she's such an amazing success. And she's, um... kind of revitalized a stereotypically like, you know, people never gave romance novels much.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
Okay, ready? Speaking of making small things. No, what did you say? Big deal out of small things. I have news. You're wearing a dress? I am wearing a dress because this dress is all that fits me right now. I'm with child, so everybody can eat my ass, but no. But it's about my child. It's huge news.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
They were never like, you know, in the front of the bookstore. It was never like sexy. It was just like kind of like these things women read in their spare time. So she revitalized like an entire different genre. She really is like a trailblazer. And now she's just kind of been like, like it's like a pawn, you know?
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
And she has so many exciting projects coming up. Almost all of her books get optioned. And she's really like a, she's a major success and she is like an inspiration. But now we just think of her as like, Blake, Claire, Baldoni.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
Yeah, which was great for PR and great for like, because the book was really created on social media, like the hype. So you can't leave people in the dust. You have to bring them on that journey with you. But that's really not stereotypically in the past how books get made. Like you buy a book and the author has no part of any of it. And that's, you know, hard for them.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
But that's what you get when you sell your book.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
It's just crazy that this is the first one and it went so south.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
And the fact that it's the type of scandal that the things we're talking about are sexual harassment, women in the workplace, and the book is literally about these things. It's seriously like- It's stranger than fiction. It's like self-fulfilling.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
And welcome back to The Toast. Happy Friday. That so doesn't feel like a Friday. You guys, it's the last day of the week. Obviously, we're rejoicing. We're really grateful. However, so much is happening.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
This has been Aaron Rodgers recently, like big time loser.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
Yeah. They kind of need, even though he didn't do a good job, but I don't know if it's more so that Aaron Rodgers isn't good anymore, or it's just the curse of the Jets. The Jets, they could have Tom Brady and everyone, and they just still wouldn't be able to do well. It's something in the air, in that arena.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
crazy person like he's not going out like this he wanted to play that same season that he got injured yeah no I mean you have to really orchestrate when you're like a great quarterback or any player but specifically quarterback you have to orchestrate like a really um a pargy way of going out even like Jason Kelsey that's the most recent retirement while he didn't win it was still an honorable way to go right the Kelsey bull he went out on top
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
You know, Tom Brady did go out well the first time, and then he just kind of embarrassed himself. But you want to make it- No, but he won another Super Bowl with the Bucks. Yeah, but he lost his family in return.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
Yesterday, after we recorded yesterday's episode, the second we stopped, Dr. Fox detected me with my glucose results. Now, I could have shared them on social media, but I thought, we're family here, save it for the show. And there's been a lot of speculation about whether or not Turdy tested positive for gestational diabetes. Was she GD Aladin or GD Aladin? And the answer is, I am GD Aladin.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
If they don't come back, they were never yours. In an ideal situation, you win the Super Bowl and then you retire. But you have to do it in a way that's not embarrassing. And this is embarrassing. I'm going to come and revitalize this loser-y team. He's not going out this way. You got injured and then you got cut. So that's what I'm saying. He kind of... He can't. He can't.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
Oh my God, by the way, I just want to say, I didn't know that. I just like was using my knowledge of football to make an educated guess.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
Because all the wives and girlfriends... The best part of the 49ers is Olivia Culpo, Kristen Juszczyk, Claire Kittle, the girlies. So I just want to know who Aaron would be bringing to the crew.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
You would love that though. I would, but they don't have a football team. Yeah, but then you have to travel to the big city and become a big city slicker for the game.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
Well, that's actually a great transition because we have Queenie and Weenie and there are a little bit of like, I have some sports selects. Okay. So Queenie and Weenie of the Week is a segment we do every Friday. Just sort of wrap up the week, take a look at the week at a glance and give out two awards to Queenie of the Week and Weenie of the Week.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
Somebody who acted like a Queenie this week and somebody who acted like a Weenie this week. It's a seven day title. It's not that serious. You can be Queenie one week, Weenie the next. It hasn't happened, but it could.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
Yeah. Just like, don't take it so serious. Yeah. So you're going to do queen near weenie first.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
Yeah, no, that's definitely up there for me.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
My Queenie is Saquon Barkley. Similar but different. I just feel like I wasn't really familiar with Saquon and this week was a big week for Saquon, obviously winning the Superbowl, but more so the media appearances. Um, he's getting praised online for defending Taylor Swift and everything I see about this man. And he's just like a cute fiance and they have a baby. Like everything I see, I like.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
And I also just learned about his like story from the giants. Like I'm just learning. And I'm like, yeah. And I just want to like keep the Philadelphia Eagles fans who listened to this show. I want to keep them happy because, um, they're a scary bunch. They're a scary bunch. And they'll come to your town, you know?
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
I am... Not having to take the three hour test. Yeah, I passed my glucose test. I'm so skinny. Like he basically, this is what Dr. Fox said when he texted me. He said, glucose...
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
My weenie of the week, and I'm sorry to do this because she has been through a lot, but weenie behavior needs to be called out. It's Mandy Moore. The more I think about that story we talked about yesterday where she was blowing up Amazon for delivering that package to her parents-in-law's burnt-down house.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
And something we didn't even talk about when we were discussing it is it can't be overstated that her parents... order that shit to that specific location. So we're mad at Amazon for doing their jobs. Like maybe, maybe the driver was like, Oh, the person whose house burned down, like doesn't have anywhere else to live. So they need like a delivery point. Like, I don't know.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
The more I thought about it, I feel like, You have to be really careful when you're a celebrity going online to complain about social media. Not only did she misread the room here, she's also wrong in this situation.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
She's America's sweetheart. That's the thing. And like, she's always like, and up until recently, she's kind of been one of the most vocal celebrities and one of the celebrities who lost the most. So people are just championing her right now. And I'm down. And then the more I think about the situation critically, I'm like, wait, I love you.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025

You have no food in your body, your skin and bones. And we are worried about you at this office. That's what I heard Dr. Fox say. That's what he said. Yeah. He said slightly anemic. So it's giving slim. It is.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
It's giving clean bill of health, TGTGBH, God willing. Yeah. And yeah, so I don't have to suffer that three-hour test. I don't have to drink that thing ever again until the next time. Even if she liked it a little too much. Yeah. But it just kind of... It wasn't the news I was expecting. I kind of just felt like my fate was to have gestational diabetes. Do you know what I mean?
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
Yeah, well, everybody really hypes up that glucose test. So I like made it my whole personality. I made like a thousand TikToks about it. People being like, are you really making this your personality? Well, I was made to think it was a big deal. It kind of isn't.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
And she was like, what if we get a studio? And I was like, this bitch is like always doing so much. Like I'm pregnant. Can I just lay at home and podcast? And she forced us to do it. And she is a hundred percent right. We found this pargylicious studio. Drew is here. He's live switching. If you're watching on the- Show him the live switch.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
Oh, you're friends without electricity, like you're granola friends?
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
Well, I did hear, actually, we got some really interesting feedback from yesterday's episode about some of our crunchier girls who didn't want to do the drink. And there are other options. That's what we said. You can, but no, not like, you know. Gatorade? No, a Snickers. Even though I feel like a Snickers is just as unhealthy as that drink.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
I had just written a couple of things down I wanted to share.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
Also, first of all, happy Valentine's Day. Oh my God, happy V-Day to you as well. And it begs the question, will you be mine?
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
I knew consciously, like it was subconsciously it was Valentine's Day, but I didn't wake up and think it's Coronation Day until I got this really, really beautiful text from my husband who left the house at 6 a.m. to go golf.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
I don't want to rub it in, but I got this text from my husband that kind of is going to put all these other bitches to shame. Ready? Are you going to read it out loud? Happy Game Tunes Day, Angel. I love you. It was obviously a typo. Happy Game Tunes Day, Angel. I love you. I said Game Tunes. She said Valentine's Day, LOL.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
Oh, we switch, we switch. And then also go back to the regular one. You guys see how we're like, ooh, and we're moving. You see there's like a very slow wave. Yeah, we're just kind of leveling up. These other bitches could never.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
It's called setting up a joke. Like I was, I wanted you to think that.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
Happy Game Tunes Day to you. Happy Game Tunes Day.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
Yeah, I did get flowers. They're in my hotel room. Not to be like, you know.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
Actually, they were arriving as I left, so I didn't actually see them. Oh, okay. Yeah. And then the other thing I wanted to say, just like a quick correction from yesterday's episode. I went on this like whole long diatribe. Maybe you heard it, maybe you didn't because my audio fucking sucked yesterday. I'm really sorry about that.
The Toast
Game Tunes In The Big City: Friday, February 14th, 2025
About how I wanted to make a more conscious effort to expand our boomer demographic.
