Good morning, millennials.

Welcome back to the toast and happy Tuesday.

That feels like a Monday, but it also feels like a Friday because we are fucking celebrating, bitch.

We are about to fucking celebrate England.

We're back, bitch.

We're about to be celebrating.

There's so much to celebrate.

I know you guys probably think that we're sad because swirly summer is over and we're no longer together, which those things are true, but what's also true is that we can hold space for two things.

And the other thing that's true is that it's Gauchy Parche Fall.

Okay, I'm so glad you brought that up because yes, I'm devastated swirly summer is over.

Like waking up on my own accord this morning, like not hearing kids banging downstairs.

Like it was devastating.

I slept amazing, but it was devastating.

And I don't want to minimize that feeling.

Like I miss you so much.

I miss your family so much.

You guys, what's also crazy is Claudia and I parted ways on Sunday morning because you know Claudia wakes up and is out the door like can't let the grass grow under her feet for one second.

No.

And I have not spoken to you since for a myriad of reasons.

Obviously, it's just been extremely busy.

Then I flew home and then yesterday just unpacking.

Like we haven't even caught up.

So we also just need to catch up like as sisters on the podcast today.

I hope you guys don't mind.

I hope you guys don't mind.

But what I was saying is like I, you would think like I would be sad, right?

Like I would seriously be crying.

You know, all the seasons really do have merits, except for like maybe like the dead of winter.

Like beginning of the year is really dreadful.

But the way I got back to the city and like me and Ben were having such a renaissance with New York City, with the weather, with our apartment, like it's really an exciting time.

September, it's September 1st in my mind.

I know it's like technically the third.

It's September 1st.

I'm so excited for what is to come.

I feel this positivity sort of radiating.

I'm just,

I don't know, it's a fabulous time.

And New York is like, is it its best version of itself?

It is.

Because it's about to be fashion week.

So like everyone's coming to town.

It's about to be like passion off.

No, it's like a good time to be in New York, you know?

Yeah, yeah.

Do you have fashion week, big fashion week plans?

Well, you know, I'm kind of closing a couple of Hoch Couture shows.

I'm actually super, super busy this week, so don't come looking for me.

Oh, okay.

Is this week fashion week?

I think it starts in like one or two days.

And it's not really a week, more of like 10 days.

A lifestyle.

A lifestyle.

You know, I prefer Orlando Fashion Week, and that's just a little bit about me.

For sure.

I actually like the parade down Disney, Orlando Fashion Week.

Huge.

Fashion Forward.

So Swirly Summer came to a quick and abrupt end.

It did feel abrupt because we were never going to be ready to say goodbye.

We would never have enough of each other.

But I love that we're both like focusing on the positives of GPF, Garji Pargi Fall, because there are so many.

Like fall is objectively our favorite season as a swirly society.

Jackie, while I was gone, my freezer broke.

So like everything that was in my freezer had to be thrown out.

So I went to the kosher grocery to like stock up on all my meat because, you know, I love to have meat in my freezer.

And it's like ground chicken, ground beef, ground turkey season.

Like we're making chili.

I brought all the trapings for chili just to have, you know, just in case like inspiration strikes.

I

we have football.

Football starts, I think, like this week or something.

We have autumnal energy.

We have cultivated vibes.

Like it's so, it is out.

Like we become the best version of ourselves.

I feel like this is when people's like seasonal depression starts to begin.

Like, no, I was depressed all summer.

Like now I can begin.

I feel like we made the most of summer considering like we're not summer creatures.

We're not.

And you would have never known that because we were so excited for summer.

And I feel like in the spring, we were even saying like, it's crazy how excited we are for summer considering like we're not about summer.

And I just think that's us just being like positive optimistic swirlies that is true we're a pos we are pieces of shit um

but i would be remiss if i didn't at least admit part of my hatred for summer in the past really is as an overweight person like summer is not for you first of all like good luck finding something to wear good luck like seriously not soiling yourself in those in said outfit because it's so fucking hot.

So the lower in weight I have gotten, the more I've enjoyed summer.

There's definitely a correlation between the two.

Speaking of like, did you clock in yet?

I clocked in.

I clocked in.

What are you doing?

Oh, oh, oh, oh, no, no.

Did you weigh yourself?

Weighed yourself.

I said, you mean, did you clock into like your diet?

I'm like, yes, I clocked in yesterday morning.

Like,

dial in.

I made fresh, healthy food.

I went to a workout class.

Like, I am so back.

No, I did not weigh myself.

That's really crazy.

No, I'm dialed in on my fitness journey as well.

How much did you gain in?

It was what I thought.

It was five pounds.

Oh my God.

God willingly, I inhara, I only gain five pounds.

Can you just weigh yourself just so that you know that way?

Like, cause you should know how, like, even if you put in two good weeks, like, you should know, oh, I lost three pounds.

Like, that's good.

I need to have like three good days before I weigh myself.

I did one good day and, and I, and my, like, my hair was a little wet and I blew dried.

I'm like, get on the scale, bitch.

No, like, seriously, it's none of my business how much I weigh at this current moment.

I need to work myself up.

I just needed to know, like, for my records, you know?

Yeah, for the records.

Like, where I was at, at what damage i'm capable of doing in two months when i feel like in those two months i wasn't the worst i've ever been because when we go on vacation like for two weeks we are balls to the walls for two weeks because it's only two weeks whatever you can't do that for two months so i wasn't the worst but i was towards the end like no i was really and also those five months those five pounds happened in the second month okay

what do you think is the most amount of weight like a person my height and size like could gain in two months i mean if you were eating like

if it was a competition, how much could you possibly gain?

No, not a competition, but like, what do you think?

Like, seven, eight?

Because Ben gained 15.

And that's.

I think if Ben gained 15 and I gained five, like, I think you're closer to me.

I think you're like a five to six.

You seem to think that you ate like way more than

you look back and think like you were worse than I feel like we were.

I don't feel like we were horrible.

I don't think we did the same.

Like you were.

That's what you're saying.

Yeah.

Yeah.

That's what you're saying.

I don't know.

I think net net, we did the same.

Here's the thing.

I don't even want to think or talk about this anymore.

Like it's so upsetting.

Like Like, I was on such a good journey.

I'm back.

Okay.

I have a good 24 hours under my belt.

I feel good.

I feel strong.

I went to, oh, I went to a workout class yesterday.

And I don't mean to brag because there's really nothing more uninteresting than hearing about somebody's like fitness journey.

But I do need to brag a little bit because I went to Barry's boot camp, which I think is like universally regarded as the hardest workout class in the city, right?

Is it?

Yeah, like even I texted Margo.

I was like, by the way, I just last minute booked this class.

Do you want to come?

She's like, fuck no, I would never.

I was like, what?

Not that I've ever done Barry's, so I can't say, but I think that like live method, which you were doing this summer, like is the hardest workout period.

I said workout class.

Workout, that's personal training, live method.

Like, okay.

Like, it's,

I feel like it's always like, oh, it's like the scary, like, it's like, I guess I never did it.

I must have been scared.

No, I'm afraid.

I texted Margo.

I was like, do you want to come?

She was like, fuck, no, I would never.

And then I was like, shit, I definitely like overestimated my abilities.

Yeah, you fitness too close to the sun.

And I did it yesterday, and it was super hard.

But I finished it.

Like, I.

But you did it.

There was a point in my life where I probably would have had to leave midway and throw up.

I made it through the whole whole class.

I pretty much did everything that the instructor, I modified a little bit, but like I pretty much did everything you said.

I was so proud of myself.

I was like, you know, right.

And then when I left, like, I had a full day afterwards.

You know, usually, like, in the past, if I would have done something really laborious, I would have had to lay down for the rest of the day.

Like, I seriously wouldn't have been okay.

But I just felt so proud of myself yesterday.

Like, major accomplishment.

And I actually really enjoyed it.

I think I would return.

They played New Romantics.

Oh, fun.

Things you did, Barry's.

No, no, no.

You should keep a list of things we did.

Okay, another thing I did, and I can't believe you haven't even said anything yet.

Hold on.

I mean, you're wearing light wash jeans.

I am wearing light wash jeans, but that's that's not what I was referring to.

Okay,

you are twiddling your fingers.

You got a manicure and you got red nails because it's GPF.

Okay, I got red nails because I was sitting next to a toaster at the nail place and she had this color.

And I was like, oh, that's interesting.

Because in the summer, I do a light pink.

And then in the fall, I've been known to do like a maroon burgundy.

She's been known.

I've been known.

And I'm like, what time of year is it?

It's it's like still summer and the girl next to me was like it's big apple red and i said she looked so she had also just like pretty thin like thin fingers and it makes any color look good

and i was like oh it's big apple red and she was like do it do it they have the gel version too and i was like okay i think i will do it because i think it's like a perfect transition Let me tell you, you know, the red nail theory went around on TikTok.

What was the theory?

I asked you to explain the theory to me and you couldn't.

Can you now?

So Girl Boss Town created it.

I actually don't know what the theory is.

I just know that there's a thing called red nail theory.

I mean, I feel like I'm living proof that the red nail theory is real.

Look at me.

What are you saying about yourself?

I don't know.

I think the red nail theory has something to do with dating.

I still can't surmise, like, do you like it?

Love.

Okay, cool.

Like, this is so not me.

I actually feel like Tyra Banks in life size.

Look at my firecracker red nails.

Yeah, I actually feel like your fall color, you've probably forgot it's like that granny mauve, and that's a beautiful color.

That's not my fall color.

Last year, I changed my fall color.

I don't do mauve anymore.

I do burgundy.

I love it.

Keep up.

Jackie, keep up.

I look forward to a manicure, but it's not on the short list of things I need to do this week.

I know we need to do that.

You know what I mean to do?

But something I haven't done since I've moved here that like I have a pile of clothes waiting to be done.

The dry cleaners?

The tailor.

I just can't with the tailor.

I need like we did so much great shopping this summer and I got at least like one or two things that have to be tailored in order for me to wear them and like I have sought out a good tailor and now I can bring all the other things that were on hold to be tailored and I'm going to get my things tailored.

Well, maybe you shouldn't have moved because I get my things tailored at home with a location specialist.

They need to open up a Florida location because seriously,

once you get a seamstress in your living room, like you can never go to a

literally having to like find time in the day to drive to the tailors, but it's raining today, so maybe not today.

If anybody knows like of an at-home tailor in the South Florida area, feel free to send it my way as long as they're good because I like these items and I don't want to ruin them.

No, that's definitely like a chore.

On the list of chores, that's a list of negatives of moving to the suburbs, the tailor.

A hundred percent.

Like I used to, even if I didn't even have someone come to my house, it used to be down the street from me.

I would just go to the tailor on my way to work.

Like it was nothing.

You take it for granted when you're in a big city.

Don't.

And like, God forbid, I just learn how to sew.

If I could hem my own pants, like it would be so over for you bitches.

Like for me, my main

reason for going to a tailor is everything is too long on me.

We're so short.

All the pants I buy, like really need to be hemmed.

If I could just

Why don't you like?

Learn, get it, like go to a class, like get a sewing machine.

Kristen, you just check it up.

1000%.

Like my mother-in-law knows how to sew, like, actually, like a hem.

I can sew like if I tear something.

You actually can.

I can't do that.

But she knows how to like make a hem.

And I think like one time we were on vacation, she like hemmed my dress for me.

It was so clutch.

Yeah, even when we were at the Borgata, you needed your strap fixed and someone from housekeeping came and like crushed it

in a good way.

I'm going to take a sewing class.

That is on my list of things to do before the end of the year.

Like, I love that.

We're unstoppable, dirty.

We are.

Anything you set your mind to.

I mean, red nails.

She's got a degree in sewing.

Like, watch out.

It's Garchy Pirate G Fall, okay?

It's Garachie Pirate Fall, which is just the most Garachi Pyrogy season.

We have a great episode.

Oh, great.

I wasn't ready.

No.

Have you listened to Sabrina Carpenter's album?

Of course.

Of course, because I'm an original fan.

You know that.

Like,

I know you wouldn't expect I'm listening to the new Gen Gen Z music.

It's not about me doing that.

It's about me listening to my girl.

It is

so amazing.

It is like one of the best albums I've heard in a really long time.

Let me tell you why.

The music is Pargy, right?

It's, I love how every song kind of feels like a different genre.

There's a little Casey Musgraves, a little Ariana Grande, a little Imogen Heap, you know?

Yeah.

I'm seeing different influences.

The lyrics like actually make me cackle.

Like she's actually funny.

You know, what's that song that starts,

don't smile because it happened, cry because it's over.

Like that is fucking funny.

Like, she's being funny.

I'm like, giggling to myself.

The bops are bopping.

I'm like shaking my ass.

I'm crying.

It is so good.

I'm such a swirly for Sabrina.

I don't know what the carpentators call themselves.

Like,

what's the name?

I think it should be swirlies for Sabrina.

I just

this morning was looking, she's going to play Madison Square Garden in like one or two weeks.

I actually think you might be here.

Oh, because we should go fans.

Oh, you should.

Do you think she'll play skin?

I don't know, but she better play this.

You gotta keep

on twiddling them thumbnails.

Yeah, I would go to that.

I'm still in the phase of the album where I can't distinguish one song from another because I'm just like listening on loop while I like clean my room and stuff.

But I think now that I'm like back in the Tesla and I can like drive and see songs that I'm listening to, I'll become more familiar with the body of work.

Early Faves Fraternity, Juno, Sharpest Tool.

Can't say.

I'm abstaining.

Good question.

I don't want to speak too soon.

It's too important.

Abstinence is key.

And you know, Brievanna.

I'm not a Sabrina, though.

You know, you know, Brievanna Kemp's daughter is a president of the Abstinence Club.

I didn't know that.

Have you been watching Gaspard Housewives since we split?

Of course, like, we're supposed to be.

I've watched like 10 episodes.

I'm probably way ahead of you now.

I've watched two.

Oh.

And like, did you finish season one?

No, because I didn't.

I mean, on Sunday night, we got home pretty late from, and like, I did something which I never do, which was like get right to it.

We got home at like 9.30 and I like started opening all my packages,

opening my suitcases.

Like, usually I would just put it it off till the next day, but whatever.

And then I've just been in a whirlwind of unpacking, getting the house ready ever since.

But last night, we treated ourselves to two episodes.

Let me say this, and I wouldn't spoil anything because there's so much, even though I recently rewatched it, like there's so much you don't remember.

There's such good drama.

But I remember my takeaway from the last season of Desperate Housewives was like, I can't believe Tom Scabo like ended up the way that he did because he was such a good dad and good husband and good character.

And I liked him until a certain point where he goes off the rails, right?

Now I'm watching it with fresh eyes.

Like they could never make me fucking like Tom Scabo from day one.

From day two.

You weren't paying attention.

No, you weren't paying attention.

And like even the littlest things that he does are seriously grounds for divorce.

Like, and Lynette puts up with so fucking much.

Yeah.

Oh my God, I hate this man.

I'm cracking up.

No, all the men are really trash.

It's such a good rewatch show.

I can't remember if we said it.

I think we said on the patrons.

We also need to just like catch everyone up who's not a patron, but it's just a reminder that you should become one.

Claudia and I did a bunch of episodes on Patreon last week where we recapped the news of last week.

We did like a fast vibe, Taylor Blake's birthday.

Haley Bieber's baby name.

If you're looking for all that old news, we did an episode at patreon.com slash a toast.

Yes.

So check that out.

And that's where we also shared that we've been re-watching Desperate Housewives and it's such an amazing, joyous thing to do with your life.

And we recommend you all join us.

I cannot recommend enough to re-watch Desperate Housewives.

So I saw my friend Abe yesterday, who I haven't seen all summer.

And all summer, he started watching The Real Housewives because he's

like having a renaissance and he's never seen any real TV.

He watched every single franchise from the beginning and he was like, I don't know what to do with my life now.

I'm like, you have to watch Desperate Housewives because not enough people know about or talk about like the Real Housewives to Desperate Housewives pipeline.

How really one wouldn't exist without real housewives would not exist without Desperate Housewives.

Like it's loosely, very loosely, like inspiration for the idea.

It was like, oh, you guys like this show.

Let's give you the reality version.

Same with the

OC and Laguna Beach.

Right.

Not enough people know that.

It is seriously the best show.

It has everything.

It's gender neutral.

Everyone I know of all different genders likes it.

Our husbands are loving it.

My husband has never seen it in full and he like can't believe it.

When Ben watched it in full for the first time, like a couple of years ago, oh my God, he was obsessed.

Yeah, so I think that's just like a fun fall activity.

Yeah.

Until football comes back and even when football comes back, it's just a nice thing to have on like in the background.

Well, right now it's very plot driven, but I feel like once you know the plot, like it's just a nice comfort show, even though it's like extremely spooky.

Yeah, I just got to the part with the Apple white family when they move in if you know

you guys there was a added to my list like it's literally up there with the SVU episode when Rishi Kahari goes undercover literally I was as a child like did not sleep for months after seeing those couple of episodes with the Apple White family who have like that I won't spoil it yeah don't

seriously like not okay not okay

Now I feel caught up.

Like

that is all between you and I, betwixt us.

Oh, I also wanted to make mention because this weekend was actually incredibly sad and hard, because terrible news came out of Israel of six hostages who were being held hostage in Gaza since October 7th, who were executed mere hours before the IDF was set to rescue them.

One of them was the American Israeli citizen, Hirsch Goldberg-Poland.

Another one was Eden Yaru Shalmi, whose sisters we met this summer and we talked about on the show.

And then four other innocent civilians who were taken, stolen from Israel on October 7th.

It's seriously like rocked the Jewish world.

I know.

It's been devastating.

The funerals happened this weekend.

Hirsch's mother spoke at his funeral yesterday.

And if you haven't seen the videos of her speech, you should watch them.

Seriously, like, she is

everything.

Like, she really represents, like, she's a real Jewish mother to her core.

And I think that she has spent the last 333 days since her son was taken hostage, like advocating on social media, speaking.

She's like, literally, wakes up every day and like

world leaders.

She met with the Pope.

She spoke at the DNC.

She's met with Biden and anyone, like pleading desperately for her son to come home, to bring home the hostages.

And she's not only obviously like going through an unimaginable horror, but she's like really been one of the most vocal advocates, like and picking herself up every single day, making videos, talking to people, like trying to get the message out there.

So for the story to end in this way, like there is no worse way no for the story to end where like he was alive we didn't even know we hadn't they hadn't been like photo or video proof in a really long time of Hirsch so like you know the thing with the hostages is like you don't even know if you're like waiting for them to come back alive and so the fact that he had been alive that he survived 330 days of pure torment

and abuse for two days before for him to have been executed.

It's just, it's the worst way this whole saga could have ended.

And you're right.

Like it really shook the Jewish, Jewish community.

Like these last couple of days, like seriously, I've thought of nothing but.

And the fact that her son is American, his name is Hirsch.

He's literally American.

He was born in California.

He's an American citizen.

And there has been like an American, like to me, like I'll never forget the name Hirsch Goldberg, right?

Like that's embedded in me forever.

And there was major news over the weekend that he actually, you know, had been killed.

And I don't know, I feel like like we know about it and everyone I know is like talking about it, but it's not like a major news story.

And it's like American, like when I think about, remember how like, and the situations are totally different, but I'm just talking about like public perception.

Like I had never heard of Brittany Griner before she had been taken captive, but like when there was an American being held captive in Russia, which was totally different scenario, it was like the name on everybody's lips, Brittany Griner, Brittany Griner.

We talked about it.

I don't know anyone who's talking, who isn't like Jewish, who isn't talking about her.

Or who isn't like a staunch ally, but there are so few.

There are still seven American citizens that are believed to be alive that are being held hostage.

There's really like not

much that is being done for them.

And I'm sure you could say like there's things you don't know.

I don't think there's much more that we don't know.

We've seen like this administration put so much

pressure on the Israelis when they're doing everything that they can to make a deal to get the hostages.

I don't know what more they could do.

Like usually

it's not happening from the other side.

And that's where the pressure needs to be.

And it's just, it's so upsetting to know that like these are American citizens.

And yeah, they're not getting that attention.

CNN said that Hirsch died.

Hirsch did not die.

Yeah, that's what happens when you're held hostage for 10 months and then somebody puts a gun to your head.

That's how you die.

They recovered the bodies.

The bodies had bullet holes.

They were executed.

They were shot point blank.

That's not just someone died.

Right.

No, it's fucking disgraceful.

I'm so done with everyone, like for real.

Just a really hard couple of days in the Jewish community.

I think that a lot of us, like,

you see yourself in someone like Hirsch.

Like, we went to school with people like Hirsch.

She's just like so, to us, like a typical,

you know, has dual citizenship.

Like, it's not,

it's just, it hits very close to home.

And he was at a music festival, just celebrating life with his friends.

He loved to travel.

You can't, like, look at his mother without your heart being, like, completely broken.

She's really so, so tough and so brave.

And she's done such amazing work.

And like, seriously, like, she'll never get it, but like, she deserves a fucking Pulitzer.

Like, she.

Time person of the year, but it would never be, but that's literally, she is the person of the year.

Yeah.

And I just like,

I mean, if you saw the videos, like literally thousands of people showing up at the funeral and just like lifting their family up.

And I just, I hope that in a, I don't even know.

It's also worth knowing because people might have not put this together, but their bodies were found in tunnels in Rafah.

So I remember a few months ago, we were trying to explain like why is there

all eyes on Rafah, why the IDF needed to go into Rafah, how Hamas is operating out of Rafah.

So like hostages are being held there and that's why they went there.

You know, if they just returned the hostages, like they wouldn't be in Rafah.

And 40 million people shared that AI-generated post on Instagram, hashtag all eyes on Rafah.

Like, look what Israel's doing.

Yeah, look what is, where are the 40 million people now?

Look, that's why we were there.

Yeah.

Do you want to follow up or no?

No.

Are your eyes still on Rafah?

Like, then your heart is still on the street.

Mine are.

Right.

So, really, just a terrible

end of that saga.

And it's still ongoing.

There's over 100 people still being held hostage in Israel.

Yeah.

Some of them are American, some of them Israelis, some of them are Russian.

Like, they're all, they're they're people from all different walks of life.

Some of them are Muslim, some of them are Jewish, some of them are Christian.

Like it's literally like it's so wide-ranging and like the lack of care is really devastating.

Yeah.

It's it's just like it keeps hurting because it's of course the tragedy, but then the lack of care and the and the lies and even worse, the people who support it.

Like I can't even wrap my brain around that.

No.

Just terrible.

Yeah.

So we would be remiss if we did not mention that because that's really what's been on our minds and in our hearts.

Yeah.

And all the other activity, you know, is just

distraction.

But we do have a great show and what we always do

we're going to pick back up Garjee Pargi Fall in full effect.

And I think without further ado, I think.

I think without further ado, did it ado, it is time for the fast five stories that you need to know.

And the fast five stories that you need to know are brought to you by Cetaphil.

Thank you, Jacqueline Folet.

I cannot wait for the stories.

I actually meant to ask before what they were, but now I'm going to be surprised.

So we have an abundance, and maybe like your fave got pushed to tomorrow, but these seem to be like top five.

And actually, the fifth story is to choose your own adventure.

I'm going to give you two choices.

Let me tell you, my fave, and I'm hoping it didn't, is Inez de Ramon.

Of course.

And that's the first one because Brad Pitt and Inez de Ramon appeared very affectionate away from cameras before a double date with George and Amal Kuluni in Venice.

So Brad and his lady La Vinez, who we've talked about them being together for a while now.

I think they've been together like over a year, but they've never like done anything so public and razzle-dazzle as this.

They went to the Venice Film Festival.

They made their red carpet debut.

They were caught on a boat.

They were out with Amal and George, just like living the Venice lifestyle.

I want to know if you can read my mind.

We're going to talk about all the people that she looks like.

Well, no, because a lot of people did say she looks like me and we'll get there.

But no, these photos, like for me, like are everything.

And they're giving

Megan and Harry and the umbrella.

Yes, to me, like these photos, every now and then, a Hollywood starlet, you know, whoever it is, will take a photo so gorgeous and so

memorable that like I will always reference it.

For me, it was that blue dress in the rain, Harry and Megan with the umbrella at some movie premiere.

I don't even know where they are.

These photos are at that level to me.

There's so much to unpack right now.

The ones on the boat.

The ones on the boat of Inez and Brad, but then also the ones with George and Amal in it too, because we never get to see Amal.

And seriously, like her hair is like, I could do a whole episode on her hair.

It was really just, it was gorgeous.

These photos, and because it's so new, right?

I haven't really seen high-definition photos of these two.

If anything, it's been like a blurry iPhone pic.

Like these photos, if a picture says a thousand words, then what does it say?

Yeah, no, this says true love.

Together forever.

No, I'm obsessed.

Yeah, partnership and glamorousness.

Now, of course, there's like a significant age difference, but she is like a woman.

She's a woman, right?

She's not a girl.

She's in her 30s, correct?

I think maybe even her late 30s.

Yeah, I think so, but I'll double check.

So, like, you know, whenever you're seeing an older Hollywood actor with a new girlfriend, like you have to just double check that, you know,

the age is not...

The frontal lobe is frontal lobing.

She's 31.

Her frontal lobe is beyond fully formed.

Claudia, she's my age.

How would you feel if your father was marrying someone your age?

Wow, this just conversation just took a whole new direction because now I'm looking at it so differently.

I just want to say, as a 31-year-old, like, I do feel like my frontal lobe is fully developed.

However, I don't see myself in a relationship with a 60-year-old.

Yeah, I was going to say, he's 60.

That's 29 years.

But it's a Brad Pitt 60, you know?

No, and by the way.

Those pictures of him, like, and we don't see him a lot, right?

We get like updated photos of him, like maybe once a year.

He looks really good.

He looks really good.

He knows he has that skincare line.

You can knock off some ears because it's a Brad Pitt 60.

It's not.

It's going 56.

It's not an old man 60.

Yeah.

And it's also Brad Pitt.

So, you know, it's Brad Pitt.

Yeah.

I wish I didn't, like, dive so deep into the age because I thought she was like 37.

I was ready to like not, I didn't even think about it.

The crazy thing is, like, how old was Tom and Erica, Girardi, right?

She was in her 30s and he was in his 60s?

Yeah.

That's this.

No.

It's just so crazy how like 60 looks different on everyone.

It's true.

60 is really a state of mind.

I completely agree.

Now, let's just move past that part of the conversation because I was so

convenient.

And no, it doesn't work with me.

Inconvenient truth.

The inconvenient truth.

I was so dazzled by these photos.

Like, she looked so gorgeous.

I'm really obsessed with her.

She's so beautiful and she's so unique looking.

Now, a lot of people like said, oh my God, Claudia, I thought this was you.

I saw that a lot.

But a lot of people also said that she looked like Maria maria from love is blind that's what i said now

do i look like maria from love is blind no i think she's like an amalgamation of people and also from one angle i was getting hannah berner

wow yeah so i think like you know all together but you don't look like hannah berner but it's the part of right inez that doesn't look like you that looks like maria or looks like i understand i understand i love that we have like a new celebrity to learn about she doesn't even have an instagram i tried to find and then i just saw like a fan page of her well she's a jewelry designer right yeah or maybe she was until she no longer needed to be.

And I just feel like she's not a Hollywood agent, right?

Like she doesn't have a stylist.

I was like looking at her bag.

Like she wore a clutch from Judith Lieber.

She probably went to like a really nice store like Bergdorf's, bought that clutch.

And who made her dress?

It was just like a white dress.

It wasn't, she just looks like a regular girl who had to go shopping for her big date with Tad Hamilton, you know?

Yeah.

It's true, but she's not because she carries herself in a way that's like, I could do this in my sleep.

And I just love this.

Like I really, I thought the photos, Venice is also not a Hollywood event that I particularly care about.

But this year, like, Venice is Venicing, right?

I saw so many stories.

Like, if you're on one of those boats, like, I'm paying attention.

Yeah, like, Olivia Rodrigo was making waves because her and her man were, he's there.

He's an actor, and he has like a big film premiering.

So she's there as like his plus one.

And Taylor to Travis did this a few months ago.

Yeah, but this, the Venice Film Festival is happening right now.

So everyone's in town.

Lady Gaga is there.

I believe probably Joker is premiering and we got a first look at her engagement ring.

It's enormous.

Like Venice is kind of doing a lot for.

Name on everybody's lips.

Yeah.

Okay.

I like that.

It's Venice Girl Summer.

It's Venice Girl Summer.

That's cool.

I read an interesting fact about Venice.

Did I share it?

I think I did.

Sinking.

Oh, well, everybody knows that.

But like...

Back in the 1950s, they did like this whole effort to clean the canals because, you know, it's all about the, they drain the canals.

They scrub them clean.

It was like a huge citywide effort.

It was very exciting.

I think I was reading it in relation to the Seine for the Paris Olympics.

Yeah.

So like, go Venice, because things they did, that things they did, clean the canals.

Got it.

I didn't know if there was like a wind-up to that story, but it's good to know, like, it can be done.

New York City, perhaps the subways.

It can be done, yes.

Because I was thinking, like, when I was coming back to the city, I was like, you know what?

I haven't missed is like the New York City filth, the mice, the rats.

And I know it's not feasible, but like, could there just be one day

where like everybody has to stay inside?

Like for 24 hours, you cannot leave your house.

And New York City just like releases like they fumigate.

I don't know what you could do.

Like just release the most toxic poison into the subways, into the streets, like get all the rats killed, clean up the carcasses.

And we all come back 24 hours later to a rat-free city.

Now, I know like feasibly, like you can't, right?

Like even in COVID, we had to let everyone down.

And they did it for a long time, not even one day.

But even like the, what do they call those?

What was the word?

Essential workers.

Thank you.

Like they had to go.

You know, what if I'm at a medical emergency?

Like, I get it.

But I don't feel like there's a concerted enough of an effort to eliminate the rat problem in New York.

Like, I know they talked about giving rats birth control.

Like, there have been ideas there's a rat czar.

It's a job where like literally you get hired, like you're a government employee and your job is to like work on the rats.

Figure it out.

Yeah.

And I mean, they didn't do that.

No.

Things they didn't do.

Like the birth birth control, though.

That's a good one.

The birth control.

Like, at least try.

What about cats?

What if they release cats to eat the rats?

What about cats?

Would you be happier to seize cats?

Yeah, that's actually what they did to me.

I guess though.

Cats are a bigger creature that you don't want to see, you know?

Yeah, but they're not like disease carrying.

When they start like, and there won't be domesticated, they'll just be roaming the streets.

Like they'll get, they'll get the disease.

And then they're just these bigger vessels of disease.

And if you've ever been to Israel and you're like just walking around, you see cats everywhere.

It's because at one point there was like a mouse problem and they hired someone to fix it.

Yeah.

And that person released a bunch of cats.

The cats ate the mice and now they have a cat problem, which I think people would prefer.

But what do rats fear?

You know?

Fear itself.

You know?

Fear itself.

Like everyone has prey.

Right, right.

And what's above the food chain for rats?

Let them loose.

Let them loose.

Like, I would seriously rather live in in a city filled with tigers.

Like,

I would.

I really would.

Well, the Venice Film Festival is off to

meanwhile, Angelina, she was there too because she has a new movie.

She's playing Maria Callis in a new movie and she got one of those Venice Film Festival 10-minute standing ovations.

No, the other thing they do there is stand and clap.

Okay, well, let's talk about standing and clapping because I don't know how many Venice Film Festival movies I've seen, but I do know that I recently saw the whale.

We saw the whale, you guys, we didn't even tell you.

We saw the whale.

We watched it as a family.

Brendan Frazier got a 14-minute standing ovation from that one.

Now, that's not to say Brendan Frazier like didn't do a good job.

I actually think like from an acting perspective, like, yeah, he I think he did what he could with the role.

I just have a question for Darren Aronofsky or whoever it is.

Like,

literally why?

That wasn't based on a true story.

I don't know if it was a story that needed needed to be told.

Probably not okay.

No, I wasn't fucking okay.

And I had put off watching it because so many people were like, it will wreck you.

Like, it's, you know, a movie's really sad.

Like, I don't want to watch a sad movie.

I'm a happy person.

Like, some people say I'm a light.

You know, that's what people say, myself included.

I

didn't have that.

I didn't cry once.

I was seriously like horrified.

I was disturbed.

I was also confused.

Like, this isn't based on a true story.

Why did he need to make this movie over the the course of 10 years?

Like, why is this a story Darren needed to tell?

I need to watch an interview with Darren because I didn't understand.

No, it was a lot.

And we saw the things we saw, the whale.

Like, I have literally, I have no comment on that movie.

Like, actually,

no comment.

Yeah, I have nothing to say.

And that's that's like rare for me.

I always leave, like, fired up.

She was truly speechless.

For better or for worse.

I have no words.

None.

And that's that.

But Angelina Jolie and Maria Callis.

So yeah, she got a standing ovation.

Like, also to say, that doesn't mean it's necessarily a good movie because they stand in clap for everything there.

However, like, it's got the makings and she sings in it.

Yeah, I don't know, but they like narrowly avoided each other.

This is like an extremely contentious divorce.

And what's so interesting is that it's ongoing.

It's not over.

Right.

It appears as though like Hollywood really loves Brad Pitt and they've all taken his side.

She's very much like a maverick, right?

Like she is, does her own thing.

And I was like reading the comments because I wanted, I saw that picture on Dumois of the first time I saw Inez and Brad.

Like I was so, I was really dazzled.

I was enchanted.

And I wanted to see what people were saying.

And like the, the people do not like Brad Pitt.

Like they were

hating on him in the comments.

That's so interesting.

I don't know where to land on it because on the one hand, like everyone that they work with and that they know in Hollywood has taken his side.

Makes you think like he's the good guy.

But like they're also Hollywood bunch of perverts.

Like I don't know that I trust their judgment either and so then the people are going against the you know the commenters are not with but I really I rarely feel like there'd be like a comment section that's like full of I was gonna say people bashing a woman but no there would be I don't know well mostly what they were

referencing airplane

choking of Maddox, right?

Like the

airplane incident?

I don't know.

There was the airplane incident and then there's also a choking reference.

I don't know enough about the divorce to like take aside.

All I saw was a beautiful photo.

And like, for once in my life, like, I'm just not going to look that deep.

Like, I just, I just want to enjoy something without knowing, you know.

I'm staying out of it.

That's my new motto.

I'm staying fuck out of it.

That's my new motto.

I have no comment on the whale and I'm staying out of this divorce that has legit nothing to do with me.

No, and it's like, why do we always have to be like so like ethical, you know?

No.

But can't I just enjoy a beautiful photo?

Like, why do I always have to be partisan?

Like, why can't I just say like, this does not include me?

I have

to do this.

Why can't I just say this?

Like,

I hope they work it out.

Yeah, like,

let bygones be bygones for me.

Yeah.

I don't know these people.

I don't need these people.

I don't know what happened.

I can't say.

No, and it's like, I have a lot going on in my life, too.

Right.

It's just exhausting.

So, yeah.

IDK is the official verdict.

So, TBD.

Are you ready for our next story?

Yeah.

Some more contentious marriage drama.

Nikki Garcia, formerly known as Nikki Bella.

Uh-huh.

Have you not seen this?

No.

Is asking for privacy after Ardem's arrest on suspicion of domestic violence.

You're fucking.

I can't believe you haven't seen this.

On Thursday, Ardem was arrested on charge.

To be honest, I feel like if I saw it, I wouldn't know who Nikki Garcia is.

Like, I know they needed to change their names legally because they don't own Bella.

That was like a WWE.

Like, they are the Bella twins.

Yeah, I guess if you saw it, but you need a visual aid to know that it was Nikki Bella.

No, if I saw Nikki Garcia, I'd be like, oh, that's like from a reality show I don't watch.

Like I didn't know who that was.

Well, he was arrested on charges of corporal injury to spouse, presumably Nikki Garcia, formerly Bella.

Although this has not been confirmed in a statement to people on Friday, her rep asked that the former WWE star's privacy be respected.

She said this is a private matter, and Nikki asked for privacy for her and her family at this time.

He was arrested and booked in Napa Valley on the morning of August 29th, just two days after the pair celebrated their two-year wedding anniversary.

He was later released on $25,000 bail.

So she has asked for privacy.

She did like some hot dog eating contest event.

She's not speaking on the matter.

Then also he had made a 911 call a week before this accusing her of throwing shoes at him.

So there has been like domestic issues in their relationship.

probably

a while, but this week especially.

Well, I don't know, like this is devastating for anyone, but also like we've been on this journey with her right like after john and we really thought that like john was the great love of her life but then she ended up in this like amazing situation where she got married it must be like so amazing if you're shirking john who seemed to like finally come around at the end at the end like it was actually too little too late but you know she always wanted a baby when we were watching the show like and that was a really big point of contention between her and john like she gave up the love of her life for the potential of having children and then she got pregnant and it was like really a fairy tale ending and i think a story a lot of people a lot of women could have related to like this deep desire to have kids and like your clock running out.

And she was always talking about it really openly.

And I think we all thought like this was, you know, we didn't need to check in on them.

Like it was all good.

Yeah.

No, this was seriously upsetting.

The shoe throwing incident is also confusing because he had called requesting medical attention and then, you know, said no medical attention needed.

So it's.

He sounds manipulative as fucking hell.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It sounds like a bad situation.

But she's asking just for privacy.

I don't even know if she'll,

if they're still together.

Like it's very

it's

like I want to say that we're in the middle of it.

And so that's just like a crazy situation.

And I agree with you.

Like, not expected, though it never is.

Okay, I stand with Nikki.

I, like, now that I'm thinking about it, like, you know what Ardem gives?

No, I'm actually not going to say it, but I could see him being like,

because everyone loves him, right?

Like, oh my God, Artem, Dancy with the Stars.

I could tell you's those fucking guys.

Like, I could see him being like really

mean.

Like, I actually now, like, now I never thought about it, but now I can see it.

And you know what?

People come into your life for a reason or a season.

Like, she had children, which is like her biggest.

She has one child with him.

But that was her biggest dream, right?

To be a mom.

I feel like her and John should get back together now.

And, like, seriously, she needs John.

Yeah, I think so, too.

I loved them, like, seriously.

I understood and I supported why she left.

And there were actually times, like, on the show, like, he was kind of mean.

Yeah.

No, and I was like, I would never, not mean, but cold.

I would never, like, stand in the way of her happy ending and i was never like against her in artem but like i stayed there you know yeah they kind of left me there by the way john stayed there too like john never got in a relationship what are you talking about he's in a serious relationship with a normie who looks like nikki because he stayed there

yeah

we always talk about her you know

yeah i think they're still together which isn't good for you know the john and nikki doesn't bone well

wait i think he got married yeah

he got married and that was also like didn't he say he would never get married?

And then he did.

You know, the marriage thing, like, I actually think him and Nikki at one point, like, talked about marriage.

I don't think marriage was a thing for him.

I just knew he did not want to be a father.

Yeah.

He is married.

Fuck.

Yeah.

Okay.

Listen, people get divorced.

Yeah.

Well, I feel like this is an ongoing situation and there will be.

Be updates in one way or another.

Whatever it is.

It's really crazy that John Cena is like one of the most famous people on the planet and like nobody knows who his wife is.

That's kind of like sick.

I know.

I know Shay.

Yeah, but you're like a loser.

Like I mean normal people.

You know what I mean?

It's also very similar to Dwayne The Rock Johnson.

Yeah, well he is married.

He's movie stars.

Their wives don't like me to be on their Instagram 24-7.

No, and their wives aren't fellow celebrities.

Now, I happen to know Dwayne The Rock Johnson's wife, but I know her as his wife.

Because you're a loser.

Yeah.

Yeah, exactly.

Like, this is what I do for a living.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Do you know what I mean?

I mean, like if you go up to Joshimo and you do, like, Billy on the Street and you say, is John Cena married?

The person would be like, I don't fucking know.

Yeah.

Totally.

But they'd say that thing, right?

What does he do?

It's like, we know John Cena's wife, but we don't know what he's famous for.

I don't know.

The invisible man or something?

You can't see me.

The invisible man.

You can't see me.

That's his thing.

I think he's the invisible man.

No, I don't think that's like a title of his.

Let's check.

Well, all said to say, back to Nikki Bella, like, I feel really sad and I'm sending her so much love and joy.

And seriously, fuck him.

I think.

I don't know enough, but I think.

Yeah, I think so too.

Okay, yeah, he's definitely, they don't call him the invisible man.

That's just me.

No, he does.

You can't see me.

So that's why you think he's invisible.

I think that's like a fair jump.

Okay.

A fair leap.

Are you ready for our next story?

Another,

another man in a former relationship, Jax Taylor, has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and PTSD after seeking mental health treatment.

Also, last week, Brittany filed for divorce.

By the way, I feel like Stasi Schroeder told us this when she sat down at that bar for her podcast and gave Jax that test.

What's that, that 4140?

Yeah.

Like she literally diagnosed him on air.

So like we knew this.

Yeah, so this is, so he, who has spent most of August in a mental health facility, took to Instagram on Monday to reveal the diagnosis.

He said a little over a month ago, I checked into an intensive inpatient treatment facility, scared of the unknown and what I would find out about myself.

After many years of knowing something was wrong, but not knowing exactly what it was, I recently learned that I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and PTSD.

He admitted it's been an emotional time and a lot to process.

However, he has come to his son with a newfound sense of peace.

Well,

that's good, you know?

That he's getting help, serious help, if that's what he needs.

Yeah, I do feel like,

you know, and anyone is capable of changing, right?

But for me, like, if there's anyone who's not, it's Jax.

Like, yeah.

I just have a hard time.

And he's just, he's actually also, people don't realize, like, pretty old, not like old, but, you know, set in his ways.

He's 45.

In his 40s.

Right.

You know,

I feel like at that point, like, you are who you are.

Yeah.

I tend to agree.

I don't know enough about this.

you know, what he's been doing for the last month.

I'm sure we'll see it on the Valley and maybe then I'll have more of an opinion about it.

But

TBD, again, you know, no comment.

I can't say.

Yeah, I didn't live with them.

So I don't really know went on behind closed doors.

But love to see Brittany out here, like obviously feeling joyful.

You know, she's doing ads.

She's doing ads for vibrator companies.

Oh, I saw.

She's getting her bag.

Like, you know, like, once you.

file and like you're actually officially separated, like whatever money you make after like is no longer marital, right?

Yeah.

So she's out here.

So it's ad season.

So it's, yeah, all the brands maybe you thought you wouldn't work with, you're back.

Yeah, and they started filming Valley season two.

So of course, like they've got a season now, um, which is, you know, not

a reason to do anything, but it's good for the show, and they're show people, and they get that, you know.

They're showmen.

Yeah.

They are literally, like, Jax Taylor is PT, is the P.T Barnum of his generation.

Yeah.

A showman.

Yeah.

So TBD on that.

He will ruin his own life for the show.

He's literally PT Barnum.

Yeah.

So who is Brittany?

Michelle Williams.

No, but she also like plays the game, like, you know?

Yeah.

But maybe not for the sake of her own personal life.

So yeah, maybe she's Michelle Williams.

Yeah.

I think she'd rather like live in peace, you know, but she'll like she dabbles, but would rather have peace.

And who is like the bearded lady in this?

Like, could I say even?

Tom Sandoval.

Oh, okay, I like that.

Yeah.

Not that I even had a name.

I just, I did, I didn't even want to go there.

I also don't watch a valley, so which show are we referring to?

I'm referring to, like, Vanderpump Universe.

Yeah, Vanderpump Universe.

That's fair.

And I guess, like, Lisa is Philip Carlisle.

Right?

Because she, like, went into business.

Yeah, it's not totally apples to apples.

It's not, but it's pretty close.

Yeah, well, life's a show.

The whole world's a stage.

Yeah, and this is the greatest show.

This is the greatest show.

That movie, I know it got, like, all the credit, most of the credit that it deserved.

And most of it came from us, but we had a renaissance with it.

Like last week, we were listening to the soundtrack.

It's like so fucking fantastic.

I can't believe that like, but they like, I feel like so many, so often like movies are bad.

Like just like the whale, it's like, what's everyone clapping for?

Like, what did we just see?

Like, the greatest showman was that.

Right.

Oh, you like the whale?

Have you ever seen the greatest showman?

No, I agree.

And I know like it broke records.

It won awards.

It was underrated.

It's underrated.

It's seriously underrated.

And I also feel like for some reason, and it happened to me too, where it's like, okay, we had like three years of like greatest showmen listening all the time.

And then, and then it just went away.

Like, it should be in the,

in our everyday lives.

What is your favorite song from the soundtrack?

Like, the greatest show is obviously so good, but like, seriously, from now on,

don't sleep on a million dreams.

I mean, that's my wedding song.

And then when we were listening to the soundtrack, like, so much of my wedding was greatest showman coded.

Like,

our wedding song was A Million Dreams, like, our first dance i walked down the aisle to a hebrew version of never enough and when we came out to the party as a couple for the first time we came out to the greatest show and the way i stand by those choices i completely agree it's in the words of edna from hairspray another perfect film it's timeless to me yeah so like watch greatest showman if you haven't

or if you haven't

or if you haven't in a while I actually have not seen the movie in a while.

I've listened to the music all the time, but I do need to have like a Saturday night movie night.

Yeah, I just like I feel like I'm part of the problem where like we dropped off on Greatest Showman and like let's pick it back up.

Well, you know, we didn't actually ever make it a story, but big news from the Greatest Showman universe a couple of weeks ago was they announced it's coming to Broadway.

Yes, I think it's perfect for Broadway.

I will definitely be seeing it.

I will be seeing it.

And I think that you should come to town.

Front row opening night, I'll be there.

You stumble through the days.

Gotcha,

shade up.

You see it in your face.

And even

for me on the album, tightrope was always a skip,

but I have come around on tightrope.

What is tightrope?

Do you mean rewrite the stars?

No, that's still a skip.

Tightrope is when Michelle Williams is like singing and crying.

Oh, on doing laundry?

Yeah.

It's really beautiful.

Like still, not my favorite, but like I enjoy it now.

Maybe that's just like growing up is realizing tightrope wasn't so bad.

No, growing up is realizing they never made a better movie.

They tried.

They'll continue to try.

And I would like to see like a lesser lesser version of Greatest Showman because it would still be good, if not amazing, better than the whale.

But yeah, I just feel like we need a quarterly resurgence.

What was the story?

Jax Taylor is.

Oh, wait, okay.

I just, I didn't, I didn't know if we ever got into the third story.

I like forgot.

He's a showman.

Yeah.

I just, I hope that just, just to put a, a button, a bow on it, like, I hope that he's getting.

Real and true help.

Me too.

I hope he actually changes because like that is really hard to live with and to co-pair it with.

So like for Britney's sake, like I seriously hope like he's actually taken this seriously, not just doing it for a plot line.

Yeah, and it's just sad like now that she's filed, like it is too late and this could have made

perhaps avoided if

measures were taken sooner in earnest.

In earnest.

Are you ready for our fourth story?

If it's our fourth story that's brought to you by State Farm, perchance.

Today's episode is also brought to you by Hero Bread, a truly a staple of Gargie Pargi Fall.

I'm not going to lie, it wasn't a staple of Swirly Summer, and that's why we are where we are.

I love Hero Bread.

Hero Bread is a brand I had never heard of until they started doing ads on the toast.

They sent product and changed my life, okay?

Just because it's, you know, the end of swirly summer, that doesn't mean you have to cut out all the carb-heavy foods that you love.

Hero Bread has reinvented the bread and bun game, and they make summer great.

So fluffy, delicious, flavorful, and texture with no net carbs, zero grams of sugar, and fewer calories.

Plus, they've got protein and fiber, and now you can try their sweet, melting-in-your-mouth Hawaiian rolls for guilt-free summer sliders.

So, they make bread, they make rolls, they make buns for burgers, but they also make, in my opinion, their best product, their tortillas.

Like, cause you know, I love, I love a wrap.

You do?

Yes, last night I had fajita.

It's a taco burrito.

That's a tostada in you.

It's a tosada in me.

I love also like a chicken Caesar wrap.

And

seriously, the hero wraps, I bring them to restaurants and I'm like, can you make, you know, if you go to just salad, they make their wraps with hero bread wraps.

But if you like aren't going, I bring my own.

I love hero bread.

I have so many like of their products, mostly the flour, tortillas, not flour, excuse me, the tortillas in my freezer.

So keep your carbs out of this summer without compromising flavor with hero bread.

Get 10% off your first order at hero.co and use code toast at checkout.

That's code T-O-A-S-T at hero.co, H-E-R-O.co.

This is a code of ours that I use the most, like by far the one that I use the most.

you're welcome our next story adele cries as she announces an incredibly long break from music after her engagement to rich paul so adele announced on saturday that she will be be taking a, quote, incredibly long break from music.

She said during the 10th and final show of her Munich residency, quote, I'm not the most comfortable performer.

I know that, but I'm very fucking good at it and I have really enjoyed performing for nearly three years now, which is the longest I've ever done and probably the longest I ever will do.

She added that she still has 10 dates of her Las Vegas residency to complete in the coming weeks.

And then she said, quote, after that, I will not see you for an incredibly long time.

time and I will hold you dear in my heart for that whole length of my break.

She choked up as she admitted that she needs to rest rest and take some personal time.

She said, I've spent the last seven years building a new life for myself and I want to live it now.

I want to live my new life that I've been building.

No, I love that.

I think Adele, like out of most people, has like the healthiest relationship with her work, her career, and also like her level of fame.

And when you think about how much her life has changed, like she got, she had a baby, then she got divorced.

She went on this huge health journey.

She fell in love again.

She went through the residency.

Then she did this Munich one, which I've been, I had like an Adele Renaissance this summer because my TikTok was targeting me with footage from this concert.

It was the most beautiful venue I'd ever seen.

It was like an outdoor venue.

It was huge and the sun sets like right behind her every night.

It was really gorgeous.

And so I love that.

I actually think she has a really good relationship and she feeds us.

If you're an Adele fan, like you get fed, right?

You get new music every couple of years.

She always goes on tour.

This one was a residency.

I'm glad that she has more shows left.

Like, if you haven't seen Adele and like you have the opportunity to, it is,

it is a spiritual life-changing experience.

Like it was the best thing I'd ever seen in my fucking life.

I flew six hours, spent the night in Vegas, and flew home the next day and it was worth it.

Yeah, maybe I'll take a look at her Vegas dates.

I think that this is, like you said, like a very healthy outlook.

I think she has work-life balance, but I think this is also how we can ensure that we're getting like, you know, whole bodies of work from her because one, you do need to live.

You can't just do album.

after album when your albums are so like emotionally ingrained and all about like major milestones and and and the age of your life that you're in.

You can't do like 30 and then 31 and 32.

Like it just, there's not that much more to say.

So I think this is good for her work.

And I think even though things will be quiet on the Adele front, I think she can stand, you know, a couple, a couple off years.

And I think that's a great way to maintain like good mental health, but also ultimately like creatively, it's very good as well.

I completely agree.

You can always tell when an artist is like putting out music because they have to, not because they want to.

And with Adele, and obviously it's a privilege because, you know, not everyone can do this.

Like, she can release music whenever she wants.

She's at that level now.

And I think it really ultimately benefits her.

She releases the best music because she does it when she wants.

I think when people go to her concerts and she talks a lot at her concerts, they're really always shocked to find like she's so much more than just a talented singer.

She's very funny.

She's very normal.

She's very relatable.

And I think she maintains that like sound of mind energy because she takes this time off and she just like is a mother, is a I don't know, she's not married,

but she's fiancé, she's engaged and i think that it really is healthy yeah i agree

so we shall miss her but i feel like i didn't listen to her last album enough and on the days when i'm missing her i think there's

there's music waiting for me me too by the way and she has a huge catalog of music so like

there is

music to be listened to.

Yes, I agree.

Now for our fifth and final story, I I thought I'd do a choose your own adventure because there was one story that I would have talked about, but I could see you not being into it.

So we have Taylor Swift drawing up plans for the Kansas City Chiefs

or Marin Morris dating a reality star.

Marin Morris dating a reality star.

Because I saw this too, and it's really this falls into one of my favorite tropes, which is legit celebrities dating reality stars.

So Marin Morris is giving Tyler Cameron and Gigi Hadith.

It's giving Nick Vile and Jan Marie Jones.

It's giving Sarah Highland and Wells.

And it's also worth noting that it's always the woman who is of fame and it's always the man that's of reality TV fame.

And I don't know why.

I need to pause.

My microphone fell off my thing.

Oh, no.

Well, I'll give you the deets while you're doing that.

Sounds good?

Well, I don't know if it makes noise, but yeah, go.

Okay, well, Marin Morris is dating perfect match star Justin Asada after Ryan Hurd divorce.

So

the singer, Maren Morris, is 34 and she's newly dating Netflix reality star Justin Asada, a source told people on Monday.

Confirmation of the coupling comes a few days after he, who competed on Surviving Paradise before starring on Perfect Match Season 2, posted a photo to his Instagram story from an apparent date with Morris, who finalized her divorce from Ryan Heard in January.

In the picture, she could be seen sitting casually across from him at an upscale restaurant, slouched in a booth, and the caption is scary movies plus sushi, scared emoji face at Marin Morris.

I mean, I don't know this person.

I don't watch this show, but like, this is so crazy.

Honestly, I love when women like famous women do this because like what's the point in being so famous if you can't just date whoever you can't just see someone on tv be like i like him he's cute let's go out and i think that's why it's more women than men because women watch reality tv um and i also just think you know for men movie stars like they don't have a there's girls lining up around the block for them to date like they don't have to work like go look and dm No, a thousand percent.

I like I can see like if I was like single and like super famous and I'm watching a show.

I'm like, that guy's hot.

Like what's stopping me?

Like I can literally have whatever I want like obsess I love when women do this I don't know this man so I don't know if like I would have called him up like I don't know if he's attractive to me but I seriously I think this is the best thing people do and every now and then Sarah Highland and Wells like it turns into true love now I don't think this is true love for the most part it's just an attraction thing right initially

the place to start Every now and then you end up with a marriage.

But I also think when you see someone on reality TV, it's not the full picture of them, but you get a sense of their personality.

So she might have been attracted to his looks, but also everyone on reality TV is attractive.

Plus, she might have like liked how he talked and how his personality was.

So maybe they've got potential.

A thousand percent.

I would seriously,

I know he'll never because I think like he looks back on that time fondly.

And I think he actually dates a lot of famous people and doesn't talk about it.

But like, if seriously, Tyler Cameron could do a three-hour podcast with me and I ask him every question I have about that time.

Like

we're specifically flying for the funeral of her grandmother.

Like when he dated GGID, to me, that's one of the most interesting, not spoken about things on the the planet.

Like, I need more of that.

Yeah.

And I think he also dated Sassy Baby.

Did he?

I think they were like, I think maybe a night out or something.

They had a little something.

I mean, wouldn't you, if you're Sassy Baby, like, wouldn't you?

No, I mean, when Gigi did that, like, that was the most relatable thing.

Everyone was in love with Tyler Cameron.

He's on TV, like, being so handsome,

so respectful, PJOM feminist king.

Like,

and you're going to be a supermodel in the world.

What if you just called Tyler up?

Right.

I get it.

So I think that's what happened here with Marin.

A lot of times I've been wanting to watch this perfect match season too because a couple of my faves are on it, like Harry Jowsey and Jess from Jess.

And I think Micah also from Love is Line, Seattle, Portland.

Remember her?

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

And now I could also assess Justin Asada.

If you do, let me know what you think about him.

But seriously, like, I love when women do this.

We need more of this.

We do because it's also good for you and I.

Yes, it is good for you and I.

You, you, and I.

Oh, but I'd rather die.

Yeah.

This is kind of a good idea for a list.

You know, celebrity, female celebrities who date reality stars.

You think we'll start to forget?

We could.

No, I mean, I could see these two like not dating ever again, and I forgot that this is something Myron Morris did, you know?

Celebrity reality stars dating.

Yes, I agree.

I agree with that.

Tyler C.

and Gigi, of course.

I'll never forget that.

I would say they're the blueprint, but I think it's really Nick Violet and January Jones were first.

But also, that was never confirmed.

No, no, no, it was.

He confirmed.

It wasn't much.

It's not like they were like, I don't think they were ever in an exclusive relationship, but they went out.

There was also speculation about Nick Violet and Rachel Bilson, remember?

Yes.

Yes.

Honestly, I feel like if I asked Nick Violet, he would tell me.

I just want to know.

How do you ask?

I want something.

I really think we asked, like, maybe even on our show.

And he said, well, like, that, yeah, they

engaged in something.

They engaged.

Okay.

So.

And now Marin Marlowe.

Saren Wells,

it's mostly been Bachelor Nation people, so I don't know this Justin from Adam, but hopefully he's treating Marin right.

Yeah.

Okay.

We've got a list.

Oh my God.

Has anyone been following the saga of Kelsey Ballarini and her dog?

I've been, I only know about it from you, but do you want to share?

Ugh.

It's really heartbreaking.

If you've been following Kelsey, you know her dog is like her Theo, right?

His name is Dibs.

That's like the name of her first like really big hit.

I'm calling Dibs.

And he's so cute.

And he's like going through it.

I think he's going to be okay, but he has cancer.

And like, she's promoting her album.

And she seriously was like, I don't know what the fuck to do.

Like, I can't promote it.

Like, my life is falling apart.

I think Chase has really been there for her during this time as like a dog dad.

I'm just like really upset for her.

And it's giving, not to make everything about me, it's giving me like seriously PTSD because it's really similar.

It's like her like first adult dog that she ever took care of.

And it's like a fixture in her brand.

Everybody knows Dibs.

Everybody knew Theo.

Like, and then it's cancer.

I just.

Damn, that's rough.

Yeah.

I'm wishing her well.

Me too.

Me too.

Sorry to like, sorry to bring the Garchy Party Fall episode like back.

Like, I mean, that's negative.

It's a roller coaster.

The toast is an emotional roller coaster.

Highs and lows.

But

how do you end that sentence?

I don't know.

Yeah, no, I was like, where is she going?

And you know what?

I'm in this era where I'm just,

I'm not finishing my sentences.

I love it.

Not every sentence.

Just stopping.

Not every sentence needs to be finished.

Not every relationship do I need to take aside.

And not every movie do I need to make a comment.

And not every movie do you need to give a standing ovation.

That's seriously what the people in Hollywood need to know because if everyone gets one, it's not special.

Yeah.

Yeah.

And now I'm starting to like, it's having the adverse effect where it's like, oh, you guys liked it for 15 minutes of standing and clapping.

I probably won't like it.

I'm going to hate it.

Yeah.

Because if you didn't do it for the greatest showman and you did do it for the whale, that tells me what I need to know.

But if you didn't do it after the episode of The Toast, like I want, I want to challenge you all who are listening.

Once you finish this episode, stand up.

Get up.

First of all, it's always good to, you know, get your blood flowing.

Stand up and clap.

Okay.

And then tag us in a video of you clapping

after today's episode.

Like that's fucking, like, that's what should, like, this was amazing.

Yeah.

Or use this audio

clapping.

I feel like

you do so much clapping.

Don't you find?

Oh my God.

let me tell you, as an auntie, like, and my ordering was really getting in my way this summer with like clapping.

Cause I feel like the first thing kids, like babies, do is like they clap and it's like, oh, he's clapping.

And when we first started, it's really summer, Charlie was clapping.

Like that was like his thing, right?

And so we clapped a lot.

We did.

We clapped a lot this summer.

We made a clap.

We clapped them cheeks too.

You guys, that's our episode.

Thank you so much.

Hope you have a great first day of Gargy Pargi fall.

Even though fall technically doesn't start for like 17 days, it starts in 17 days.

It's the why so much.

Like if you set the table properly right now, you'll be ready for fall when it starts in 17 days.
