Chapter 1: What happened with Meghan Markle's Netflix show?
And I don't know. I feel like I have reached a level of celebrity, especially because I saw all these rumors on TikTok. And I think that. just in time for the app to be banned. Like, I'm finally, like, rumors are finally being started about me. Like, this is what I've wanted my whole life.
You told me, like, we were going viral. People are making, like, hilarious sounds with your snow song. Like, we're just kind of the talk of the town.
No, and there's, like, a special tier of celebrity. I don't know if you know Mikaela from TikTok. Of course I do. You're my sister. Kim Kardashian. She has this, like, crazy Boston accent. And, like, there have been rumors for years that her accent is put on and completely fake.
Like, so they found these old, like, videos of her in college where she was, like, making, she was, like, a college, like, tour guide or whatever. So she's like on this video of her college being like, let's go check out the library. And she's just talking completely normal. And then there are people who have come forward from her hometown being like, you know, we don't talk like that.
Uh, that's like four hours away from us. If you, if you talk like that, so there's been like a lot of speculation, speculation about her voice for years. And she has maintained like those videos. She was so embarrassed of her accent. She's like put on a normal voice, but now she don't give a fuck. Um, and I'm at that tier. Now people think I'm faking my laugh. Oh, okay.
Yeah, just me and Mikaela with 15 million followers. Like, please leave us alone. Always coming for powerful women. So true. Ain't that the truth. So true. Yeah, and it's also like T minus four, no, what's today, the 13th, seven days, one week until potentially the media landscape changes forever and TikTok is gone over, I think on Friday, they were speaking before the Supreme Court, the talk,
They made their case. I don't know if it, you know, moved the needle at all. I don't think the Supreme court is going to intervene. And we kind of have this weird time period where their time is up on January 19th, which is the day before inauguration. Right. So like to sit Citrus Z on January 20th. I don't know. And I can't imagine that like the very first thing Trump's going to do is TikTok.
Like there's a lot of important things going on in the world. Like, I don't know if that, takes the cake. Maybe it's like first week material, not first day.
Or maybe first 100 days is sorting it out. The 100 days are very important.

Chapter 2: How did Heidi Montag's music career get affected by the wildfires?
That's the trad payoff. There is trust involved.
I'm on the precipice of greatness, but like I can't crack these eggs. I'm just like looking at them. I'm like, where did they come from?
Well, I think you and Zach need to eat them first before you feed them to everyone and then see how it goes. I think they're safe.
I'm sure they're fine. I'm sure there are standards that you have to meet to be in a part of a farmer's market. Like I do think you need like food licensing. I'll have to look into it because I haven't been to a farmer's market actually ever in this journey of like, organic crunchiness. And so I just need to say a lot of it was giving like, hey, I made this.
Yeah, no, it's giving neighborly. It's giving like if your neighbor baked you a cake, you would eat it. Like you wouldn't think. But like there has to be food standards, right?
I don't know. So I spend a lot of my weekend thinking about these eggs. Just like mulling over the eggs. Yeah, mulling. And also they're farm fresh. I don't have to put them in the fridge. They're just sitting on my counter, like looking at me.
Yeah. Well, it's kind of good if you know someone with a farm, like personally, because then there's that personal trust. So I don't know if you could get them. But Brian has eggs on his farm. I don't know if you could get them from Pennsylvania. No, no. I've eaten them. I would trust them.
You have to have a local farmer. Where you meet them is at the farmer's market. But I'm just having like that trust is very tenuous at the moment.
Okay, what if you took like a trip to the farm? That would help. Itself. Yeah. Okay, maybe that's next weekend's activity. That's actually a nice activity. You're welcome. So, without further ado. It is time.

Chapter 3: What did Timothee Chalamet say about his SNL appearance?
So it's peace of mind that every parent deserves an easier mealtime without sacrificing on quality.

And so Little Spoon's such a great alternative because they have extremely high standards for ingredients.
Also, you come to it through your kids because you start from the beginning with them. Like you go from milk to food and you have to start with one ingredient and then you work up to two. So if you're giving them outside food, you automatically are looking at the ingredients just to see if there's too many. And then you start to see like, what are these ingredients?
And it's really hard to find brands that- And by the way, you're 100% right. They have something for kids of every age. So they start with like baby blends. and then puffs and then biteables, then plates, then smoothies, then lunch snacks. Like so for all kids at all different stages, it also comes right to your door. It's flexible. It's easy. And everything stores right in the fridge and freezer.

Chapter 4: What are the rumors surrounding A Simple Favor 2's release?
has been moved from its previously announced Jan 15th premiere date to March 4th. Let me just write that down. Just update your account, Jeff. Due to the ongoing devastation caused by the wildfires.
Yeah, I think she has to be really cautious in everything she does. And I think that, while I don't know if this was absolutely necessary, like, you know, the world hasn't stopped. You know, there was football games on last night. Like- I think she's really cautious because she's under a lot of scrutiny more than the average person. So this is the right call.
Although I don't think it was necessary. Even though I guess like the show being tied to LA, maybe it's like a little soon.
But it also, I think you could argue both sides really strongly and actually don't know what the right decision is. But I also think what's easier for her and better for her and ultimately not to think this way, better for their bottom line and viewership is to postpone it. Because she can't promote the show right now because her and Harry are like on the ground trying to help people.
They've opened up their home. It would be tone deaf to promote the show when she is, you know, someone who, sorry, people would call it tone deaf of her to promote the show. And so she can't do that.

Chapter 5: What news do we have about Jesy Nelson's pregnancy?
She probably doesn't want to release it right now. But it's also like bad business. The point of a show is for people to watch it. And right now, like people can't.
Right. No, people can watch it. But she can't do everything that she wants to in support of it. Otherwise, she would get a lot of backlash. Because I think, actually, if it is a show about the beauty of Southern California, this might actually be the right time for people to watch it to really appreciate the beauty of the state and what's being lost.
Yeah. Yeah.
You can make that argument, but also you can make the argument that like now is not the time.
Yeah. The thing is, I'm sure she weighed like the risks and the rewards. And honestly, I don't know a real downside of delaying it, but I could see there being a lot of blowback if she didn't. So I think she thinks about things more deeper and more heavily than like an average person who was launching a show. I think the downside of her delaying it is like looking at it.

Chapter 6: How do wildfires impact celebrity events and releases?
Losing the momentum? No, just looking at it through the lens of like, Why are you delaying it? Because you can't do all the things that you would wanna do for it. But that doesn't mean the show can't come out.
Yeah, but you want the show to be successful. I'm sure Netflix was supportive of that too. Like if you can't promote something that you spent a year filming and Netflix putting all their money towards, like they want it to do well. Yeah. Yeah. So if she, if the reason why Netflix invests in someone like Megan is because she's Megan.
So she can't be out here like putting her name on something and going on Kelly Clarkson show to talk about it. Like what's the point? Yeah.
No, it's definitely, it's definitely an interesting conversation. One that Megan is not the only one who is a part of. You were sending me some stuff and we were talking about it last night, how people are kind of dragging others, brands, influencers for carrying on business at this time.
So the event in question is Trippin' with Turt. Turt Cosmetics did one of their brand trips. Trippin' with Turt, just for anyone who's not chronically online. They did one of their brand trips. They do them a couple of times a year. And let me tell you, they always make waves. Now, of course, the timing is beyond unfortunate for this one.
But every time when they took people to Dubai, there's always a lot of blowback to Tarte for their trips. Now, they're not the only beauty brand that does trips. Most beauty brands do them, and they do them really extravagantly. I mean, Caudalie just took people to the south of France, to the lavender fields.
Like, they do really, there have been Korean beauty brands that take influencers to Korea and buy them Birkins. Like, really crazy. It is the upper echelon. Like, And for some reason there is like a special reserve of backlash and hate for Tarte cosmetics. And I think it's because it's like a pretty accessible beauty brand. It's like not really high price. It doesn't give like luxury.
It doesn't give drugstore per se, but like it's every man's sort of beauty company. Like everybody uses it.
I also think it's because the influencers who they invite are everyone's favorite to go after. Like I don't even, I didn't even hear about this Caudalie South of Friendship. Who went on it? Probably influencers that are so big and fancy that they're out of your realm of like- Not really actually.

Chapter 7: What are the controversies surrounding Tarte Cosmetics' brand trip?
Me neither. But you're saying these same tripping with Tartars.
Think of how they come for turt, they come for Meg.
And turt being tart, not turty. It's very confusing.
I'm having a hard time not saying tripping with turt. Sorry. It's hard. I've been there, my friend. And I feel like the trip is kind of a bust, which sucks for this brand that spent like probably $2 million, honestly, if I really had to think about it. Because no one's really posting now. So they've been there for like a full day and a half. And now I'm starting to see people posting.
There are certain influencers who seriously don't give a fuck. From the minute they got there, they've been so excited to be there. For some of them, this is the nicest, first, best brand trip they've ever been on. They don't give a fuck. And they are posting every minute.
And then also people would have a conversation. People who aren't posting, they're not grateful. The people who are excited to be there are the most grateful to be there who's never done something like this in their careers.
Also, there are people on the trip who are... wives of first responders. They brought, they invited some of their fans. They do trips now just for teachers, just for nurses. They're doing the most. So it's really, you're right, it's sort of when you, I don't know if there's anything they could do that would satiate the sort of haterade energy.
Yeah, but that's why with anything, there's always gonna be people who have an issue. So you have to do, you have to stay true to yourself. Do what feels right for you.
And if we wanted to have this like larger conversation about like influencers who, you know, are affluent and make a lot of money and how unfair it is that they get free product and free trips. Like, sure, we could talk about that. That's a different in a larger sense. Any other day. That doesn't only happen with Tarte. No.

Chapter 8: How do influencers respond to criticism during crises?
Yeah. Okay, well, we shall see. I mean, I do wonder what's gonna happen with awards season. I do think a lot of things are gonna continue to be postponed for logistical reasons and also- societal. Sensitivity. Sensitivities, yeah. But our next story is actually two faces of this crisis who have emerged and are really a beacon of hope for the country. Spencer and Heidi. Spencer and Heidi.
And I have a personal anecdote I need to share.
Heidi Montag has hit number one on iTunes as Spencer Pratt has been asking fans to stream her music for income help after their house burned down. So Spencer and Heidi were among the first to lose their house in the Palisades. And then Spencer also shared that they had been dropped from insurance in in the weeks leading up to the fires. So they have lost a lot.
He has taken to TikTok and social media and is gaining a bit of a following. And now I think they're talking to Hulu about, cause everyone's saying, give them a reality show again to watch them rebuild. They are kind of the faces of this crisis and they're amazing TV. It's a no brainer. He said they do have a meeting with Hulu.
So he has been keeping everyone abreast. He probably posts 55 TikToks a day. It's so entertaining to watch. He's just trying to like rebuild something for his family. And I think it's actually really smart that they have this music that Heidi released years ago. And it really is this sort of evergreen way to make money. It is being streamed everywhere. There's like,
almost a million TikToks have been made to it. People are just like trying to support. I made one to it. Emily Ratajkowski made one to it. It's really taken off. And then this video went viral being like, we need Pitbull to lay a verse on this song. And Spencer shared this morning, he has been in contact with Pitbull's team.
Like every time he does something, it really makes waves and reaches the people. And I think people really want to help. And he did this TikTok that was like brands. Anybody wants to do a brand deal, you know, make some insensitive content, like let me know. And I was like, Ben, reach out. Like it's for society. Yeah. So I actually sent him a message and I was like, I love what you're doing.
how do we get you like a Spritz brand deal? And he gave me his manager's information and Ben's talking to his manager right now. You know, we're a small company, so we have like huge budget, but I think A would be like a great moment for Spritz and B like that's actually money you spend on marketing that you know is like going somewhere good. Yeah. So we're working on it.
And what's also really brilliant about the Heidi thing is that it costs no money for people to support them and just stream the song and they're able to, generate income. So that's really great. But no, people have been really following closely their story.
