Good morning, Millennials.

Welcome back to the toast and happy Monday.

Hope everybody had a glorious weekend.

Speaking of glory, it's Jux, a Glorious Gal.

Wow, thank you, Latter Dalu.

I mean, if you wanted to, you could call me Gloria.

Gloria.

Gloria.

Everybody used to sing that song to me when I was a kid, like, Claudia, Claudia.

And honestly, I have a lot of love for that song.

Shout out Gloria Estefan.

It's very apt.

I thought you were going to be like, they were singing it and they were singing it wrong.

Like, no, she might as well have been saying Claudia.

No, and everyone adjusted when they would sing it to me as a child.

They'd be like, Claudia, Claudia, you're always on the run now.

Claudia.

Used to be true.

I used to always be on the run.

But you're always on the run now because you're always in the gym working on your fitness.

No, because I'm always saying yes to life, running to the next fabulous event.

So true.

You said yes to a lot of life this weekend.

No to some other life.

It was a nice balance weekend, I think, for you.

It was a nice balanced weekend for me as well.

Mostly kid time.

I don't think I did anything else, but I read a lot because we're recording the new episode of The Redheads today.

I love books.

I hope one day to have a child who loves to read.

Yeah, and if they do love to read, I'm so happy to let you know that my children's book comes out in eight days.

We're officially in the single digits.

Today is Monday and it comes out next Tuesday.

So tomorrow will be one week.

I'm freaking out.

Oh my God.

I like, I knew it was coming out like in the middle of October, but I didn't realize eight days.

October really snuck up on us.

I feel like the first of the month being on a weekend, it just kind of is irrelevant.

It snuck up on us, but I'm happy that it's here.

I'm happy to go into October.

It's pub month.

Next week is pub week.

So my book, The Camber and the Counselor, comes out on Tuesday.

I'm coming to New York next week for the pub week to, you know, build up, be with Claude.

You know, there's no one else I would rather celebrate with.

And I'm planning some really fun events for the week that I'm in town.

But confirmed, I can let you guys know, New Jersey Toasters.

I am doing a book signing at Books and Greetings on Saturday, October 14th at 11 a.m.

It is in Northvale, New Jersey, so it's like 20 minutes out of the city.

I'm so excited to sign some books, kiss some babies, meet some toasters, and also just like hang out with the kids.

I tried to choose a very kid and mom-friendly time for the book signing because it's like the perfect activity for a Saturday afternoon.

I'm personally always looking for things to do with my kids on the weekends.

And I feel like this is going to be so fun.

While you're waiting in line, there'll be fellow toasters, fellow kids.

You can make friends, have a play date, get your book signed.

It's so cute.

I'm so excited.

Like I'm genuinely excited to attend this event.

If you want to secure your spot there will be an eventbrite link up later today i'll post it as soon as i have it or you can call books and greetings in northvale new jersey and secure your spot get your book and make sure that you will be attending the signing i'm that is what i'm right now most excited for for launch week no not me wishing now i had a kid so like i could bring him or her to the event and like just drop him off and i'll go shopping you know there's like tons of capable mothers in that room somebody just watch my kid i'm going to get him out of care or you could come to the event and borrow a child for a couple minutes at a time.

Which is your favorite?

It is my favorite thing to do.

Like find a kid that I just connect with, like a really cute one and make him mine for a total of 10 minutes.

Right.

Until your arms hurt and you're over.

Right.

And I'm hungry and like the kid's annoying me pulling my hair.

Yeah.

That's so exciting.

I'm so excited.

So October 14th, 11 a.m., books and greetings, Northvale, New Jersey.

More details on my Instagram later today, but you can call them up and reserve your spot if you really want to come.

It's going to be so much fun.

I'm so excited.

We've done so many meet and greets, especially with Spritz at the liquor store.

And like my favorite ones are when there are kids that come by.

And this is going to be a meet and greet of all kids.

I can't wait.

No, and it's going to be a meet and greet of all kids whose mothers or fathers are toasters.

And that just kind of hits different, you know?

Yeah, you're also welcome to come without your child or if you don't have a child, but I just think it would be, it will be so fun for parents and children alike.

Yeah, but if the moms like kind of have had enough, feel free to leave the kids with dad, bring a cocktail, bring a cocktail, bring an Uber, take an Uber, and relax, and hang with some toasters.

Yeah, it's really for everyone, but I'm very glad that it's going to be very kid-friendly.

Yeah, me too.

That sounds so fun.

Next week is just going to be fabulous.

I can't believe it's already here.

I really, I think, anticipated it being the week after next.

So I need to like rejigger my whole mental state.

You do.

Plus, I'm doing talk shop live next week.

Like, prepare to be sick of me.

That's how you know a press tour is going well when everyone's sick of you.

If you want me to to stop, just pre-order my book.

The Camper and the Counselor at Amazon, Goodreads, Barnes and Noble, books and reads.

Talk shop live.

No, it's not.

Can you order a book on Goodreads?

I just am always talking about Goodreads.

So it was the first to come to mind.

Trulia, Indiebound, Target, Walmart, wherever you want to get your books, The Camper and the Counselor.

So excited.

Jax, we're so excited for you.

The whole toast community is kind of ablaze.

And excited to report that I finally got copious copies of my book.

I had the one since May that Harry has read to filth.

And now I have a copy that I can keep in the studio because he won't let me take his copy up to the studio.

So now I can show you and tell you the camper and the counselor.

The books are here.

I'll give a little sneak peek of a page you haven't seen yet.

Ooh.

Ooh.

You know what?

This is actually my favorite page.

I'm going to give you a little peek.

It's the campers at the lake.

It's kind of like a little bit of a light.

That's where the plot kind of takes a turn.

It's a pivotal moment for our camper.

And as I said, there's kind of a

plot twist nobody sees coming at the lake.

You think?

When Snitch does what she does, and then the result of that doing,

it changes the landscape of the book completely.

It really does.

I would argue that the lake is like a turning point.

I feel as though at the lake is where the campers really start to believe in and trust their counselor.

Yeah, because things hadn't gotten hard before that.

Yeah, we're all having fun.

It's camp.

It's easy for love.

Right.

But no, the counselor had to do some serious counseloring at the lake.

No, totally.

Also, because I got copies of my book this weekend, I was able to give a copy to Michaela and Levi.

And Michaela loves the pairing trap.

Yes, she does.

So I felt like I already was coming in at an advantage.

Like, here's the book version of your favorite movie, Michaela.

No, literally, the outfits that the campers are wearing are so similar to the Camp Walden.

Yeah, also, Camper has red hair.

Oh my, oh my God, I didn't even put together how Camper, does Camper have a name?

Not in the book because it's all from her POV, but this is something that I thought about.

I was like, should I put her name in?

There was a version where she does introduce herself, but I was like, no, she's just our camper.

No, but she's every girl.

She is all of us, exactly.

Oh, I love that.

I didn't put together how she's literally Hallie and Annie.

Is she more of a Hallie or an Annie?

Oh, she's an Annie.

She's a pro.

Through and through.

No, she's like an American girl.

Oh, so she's a Hallie.

Oh, yeah.

No, I think she's a Hallie.

You do?

Oh, my God.

Camper's so American.

She's got like love handles, which we love,

which is so American.

No British bitch has love handles, like, that's for sure.

And she's the short red hair where Annie came in with the long red hair.

Yes, but also, like, Camp is so American.

Sorry, she's Hallie, like, no question.

Okay, fine.

Agreed.

Also, the book comes out on on October 10th, and Hallie and Annie are born October 11th.

So they literally get like an exciting birthday gift the day before their birthday, and they could spend their entire birthday October 11th.

Yeah, it's very, the book is very parent-trap-coded, honestly.

Perfect use.

But it's not intentional.

Like the uniforms, as we said, are uniforms from where we went to camp.

She has red hair like me.

I guess I'm just parent-trap-coated.

Or Parent Trap is Jackie O-coated.

I think Parent Trap like came out like, actually, like when we were in camp.

Maybe it was art imitating life.

Yeah, perhaps.

There was the original version, but whatever.

Nobody counts that one.

Nobody counts that one.

Trust and believe.

And so I was happy to report that Michaela loves the book.

Oh, I mean, I never doubted for a second because Michaela values, you know, good shit.

And I went to Olivia's last night for Tacos at Trouts.

Oh, I'm so jealous.

By the way, we have to tell everyone Tacos at Trout.

So when Ben and Claudia were here last week, there was one night where Ben came in.

He's like, what are we doing for dinner?

And we were going to be having tacos at Olivia's.

So I was just like, tacos at Trouts.

And he was like, what's tacos at Trouts?

And we both at the same time were like, let's fuck with him.

Fuck with him.

We knew like this was an opportunity we had to seize.

Like, we didn't even need to talk about it or communicate.

So we were like, trouts.

We're going to trouts and we're having tacos.

It's like that new.

taco place.

And for those who may not know, trout is a nickname Jackie has had for Olivia for many years.

It's come and gone in frequency, but she's recently been using it a lot.

Yeah.

So we were trying to convince him there was a place here called Trouts where we were having tacos.

And he was like, Why would we be going out for tacos?

We're like, it's fish tacos.

Right.

Trouts.

It's like a local hotspot.

Like, everyone's been talking about it.

I think we even said, like, they went viral on TikTok.

You haven't seen that place.

Like,

and like, he didn't want to believe us because we would fuck with him, but we were so good.

We were so succinct.

Also, I don't think we told any lies.

Like,

when we kept saying tacos at Trouts, we're like, it's so good.

They have the best tacos.

It's true.

Olivia has the best tacos.

Right.

So

I had tacos at Trouts last night.

Yum.

And Michaela brought out the book to me.

Aww.

And she said, can we read anti-sex book?

Can we read anti-sex book?

And then she sat on the couch next to me while I read it to her.

Stop.

Kids are so precious sometimes.

So precious.

And it's like, I don't think she could have known how much that would mean to me and how much I've been waiting for that moment.

Yeah.

And she didn't do it for that reason.

No, and there was no guarantee that that was going to happen.

I could have given her a book and she's like, okay, fuck you.

Thanks.

Yeah, I have a lot of books, but I prefer the one with the 10 caterpillars.

Right.

And that would hurt my feelings, but I would understand.

What book is that?

Ten little caterpillars calling on the tree.

It goes like one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.

There's like one, six bumblebees.

Oh, yeah.

I don't know.

She knows that one by heart.

It's not a hit in our house.

In your house.

Got it.

Because we're too busy reading Counselor.

Counselor.

Well, that's so exciting.

Everybody, make sure to get your copies.

Like, support women in the arts.

Thank you so much for coming to my TED Talk.

Now, I am exhausted

because I was at the event of the season last night.

You were.

I really was.

I went to the jet game, which for a multitude of reasons was so fun.

One, because Taylor was there, of course.

Like, that was just, it was so exciting to be at the center of like a cultural phenomenon.

Um, two,

I had the cutie sweatshirt on that just like made me excited to like when you look good, you feel good, even though, oh my god, I got fucking roasted on TikTok.

Like, I had four videos go crazy viral, everyone wanting to eat my ass alive for my choice in pants.

Okay.

Let's talk about the pants.

Okay, so I did a couple get ready with me is wearing,

getting ready for the event, like what outfit should I wear?

And I had this crew neck.

It's like a, it was from Etsy.

It was actually a toaster-owned Etsy store.

And so it's just a white crew neck.

And I was like, how should I style this?

Like, I could not figure out how to style it.

And I realized once everybody came for my ass on TikTok, that the reason I couldn't figure out how to style this, like look cool, but like still comfortable for a sports game is because I don't own a single pair of jeans.

Right.

And everyone was commenting, like, what is with all these videos, like, trying on mini skirts and trousers?

Like, put on jeans.

And I was like, oh, yeah.

But it didn't occur to me because I literally don't own jeans.

Like, this, this whole style, everybody wears like kind of baggy blue jeans, like straight leg.

We don't do, I own like two pairs of skinny jeans, but I will not wear them.

I'm like, definitely afraid of being chew gay.

No, and like to wear skinny jeans with a crew neck sweatshirt to a football game, like no thanks.

Like try less.

I'd rather you'd be interesting with your big pants, trousers, than

for lack of a better term, basic, such as that.

Everyone was just like, why is it taking four videos for you to realize you need to wear jeans?

And I,

the answer to that is that I don't own jeans.

Like, I just, I'm not a jeans girl.

Yeah, but even if you wore skinny jeans, TikTok was still going to come for you because they want you to wear their big jeans.

No, that's what they were talking about.

Like, big blue jeans.

I know exactly what's going on.

Big blue jeans.

Like, what are you, you nuts?

Seriously, like we're 5'1.

Like

how are we wearing big blue jeans?

Now, having said that, I actually did order a pair of jeans because in my defense, I think for a while, like I was sized out of cool jeans.

Like you can't tell me me and my big ass would look cool wearing big blue jeans.

You know, like I just, I think that's, maybe it's an insecurity, but I think it's fact.

Now I'm being a little bit more experimental with my style because I'm feeling a lot more comfortable in my body.

So I did, I'm going to purchase, I didn't even know what size I am.

Like, what size do you you think I am?

26.

Oh shit, I ordered a 29 and I almost ordered a 30.

You're fucking nuts.

I almost ordered a 30.

Like, I, I definitely have.

You're 26 or 27.

I have like

size and like I could try something on.

I'm really like a size six now, but it's like a little like large on me.

But like even for me ordering a size six, like it's psych, like I'm like, there's no way this outfit's going to fit me.

Like it's just unbelievable to me.

So shit.

Okay.

26 or 27 yeah depending on the cut and the brand and the stretchiness whatnot all right the jean saga continues but like i want to try like everyone wears like everybody looks cool doing it like big blue jeans like all right i'll try but it's never gonna look cool on me i'm so short you should get a pair of jeans i don't know what they're called like straight leg that's what i've been wearing what i got i got them from revolve okay

Yeah, you wear them.

I've never seen you wear big blue jeans.

No, no, no.

Oh, gosh, no.

And certainly not blue, really.

But when I wear like white jeans, I wear a straight leg.

Black jeans, straight leg.

These days.

Very unfortunately, I think like finding the right pair of jeans is going to require me to try them on in store.

Like I don't think you can really like order.

Like I'll have to order so many different colors, cuts, and sizes.

Who is the time for that?

Yeah.

That's going to be a hard day.

I will stay on.

My phone.

So that's how the day started, like me getting roasted on TikTok for being like chugging and weird.

My outfit like was weird, but whatever.

I was running late and I had a good time.

But I actually liked the way that I I looked.

Like everybody was coming for me, but I thought I looked cute.

You did look cute.

I looked fine.

I didn't look amazing.

But it's fine.

It's fine.

And I had the best time, first of all.

Like, we had amazing seats.

Shout out.

Why'd you get those seats?

Ben Software Celeb.

The Jets gave them to us.

Whoa.

Which was extremely generous.

They did say somebody canceled last minute.

So this is why we got like such good ones.

Oh, you know who I sat next to?

Who?

Kirsten Daly.

As in Carson Daly.

Yeah.

It's confusing because you were also with our friend Kristen.

So I was like, are you trying to tell me you sat next to Kristen?

Was that a coincidence?

I did sit next to Kristen and Curson.

And Curson.

Did you talk to Kirsten?

No, I didn't.

He was with his son.

I wasn't going to like be a freak.

What's it called when you sit where you sat?

Because it wasn't court side.

Field side?

No, I don't think there's a word for it.

What yard line were you at?

50.

Whoa.

Yeah, like they were like chef's kiss.

And let me tell you.

Like your seats were better than Taylor's.

100%.

I had the best time.

First of all, the game was incredible.

I know.

I was watching.

Literally, the Jets could have won had it not been for a multitude of factors.

One, like the refs cheating.

Like not to be such a footballer like that, but like for real, they were cheating.

Like holding?

Ever heard of it, ref?

It was really infuriating.

But I was also sitting around so many Kansas City Chiefs fans that like when they cheered, I was confused because I'm like, is this good or bad?

Like it was very confusing.

So there was cheating involved, which is always great.

And then like

it was was like 23-20.

The Chiefs couldn't get a touchdown, so they kicked it and they got three points because it was 20-20 for a while.

So it's 23-20.

Jets have the ball.

They're in the end zone.

It's first and goal.

That's what I learned.

First and goal.

All they have to do is go right there.

The thing is right there.

They got four tries.

They didn't even do it.

And then on the fourth one, instead of kicking and getting a tie, they're like, no, let's fucking go for it and just win this game.

They fucking lost.

Well, they played a respectable game.

I think everybody thought when I first started watching the game, I was like, this is going to be like 70 to zero, like how that Miami Dolphins game was last weekend.

Did you hear about that?

I did.

I said, I literally turned.

I'm like, it's going to be 45 to zero.

It's going to have to stay for the whole thing.

It's embarrassing.

Yeah.

They didn't embarrass themselves.

They played amazing.

They did good work for Taylor.

And lots of chatter about Zach Wilson, the new quarterback who was like never supposed to play because Aaron Rodgers was supposed to be the quarterback.

He's really young.

He's fresh.

I believe he's a rookie.

And let me tell you, he's getting his foot wet.

Beak Beak wet.

What is it?

Beak.

Yeah, both.

He could get both wet.

He's getting

comfortable.

I've heard his name a lot.

He had some scandal last year, like Snapchatting his friend's mom.

I'm obsessed.

Or like his girlfriend's mom, something with a mom.

Zach and I were talking about it.

That's my king right there.

Yeah.

And then he was like stinking up the court, especially after Aaron.

Like he was the understudy.

He was never supposed to hit the stage.

And then last night, maybe he's a Swifty and he just like wanted to show up and show out.

Or he's just like getting more comfortable with the fact that he is this quarterback.

Like it's not temporary.

Like it is his job.

And I saw his press conference and he was like, listen, that thing at the end where we were like at the finish and we just had to like go five inches.

That's on me.

Like that's unacceptable football.

Like I actually appreciated his accountability.

Yeah, but he played some beautiful football.

And he didn't embarrass himself.

And by the way, it was on fire.

I've only been to, I think, one other Jets game before.

And I think it being on Sunday night made it more like electric.

I think Sunday night football is like a a bigger deal than, you know, Sunday day football.

Oh my God, it was electric.

It was Taylor.

It was packed.

Oh my God, it made me want to go to another football game, but I think I'd rather go during the day because like getting home at midnight like is annoying.

Yeah.

It is.

I had the best time.

I'm like obsessed with football.

You know, it's really nice.

I was watching the game last night while I was doing some work for the Redheads and it was quite pleasant.

I felt like they didn't show Taylor enough, but I can't complain.

I wasn't watching the whole time.

I was like half watching because I was was doing work and maybe I missed her, but I just felt like I could have stood to see more Taylor.

While I had the most incredible seats, I couldn't have been further away from Taylor if I tried.

Like she was completely on the other side and like a few sections up because she was in a suite.

So I was like zooming.

I saw her like because she was wearing a black turtleneck and like bright blue jean shorts.

Like I could see her, but I really, I didn't get any like good content of her.

So that was annoying, but I was really enjoying the game so much.

Like I didn't even care.

Oh, and there was toasters a plenty.

Like it was really just like a good energy.

Oh, and the girl behind me was wearing the same exact sweatshirt as me with the NFL logo that said Taylor's version.

And so was Ben.

Yeah, Ben, because it was a toaster-owned store, she sent a t-shirt for Ben.

Oh, cute.

She was really sweet.

Cute.

So he didn't have to run to Bloomingdales and buy a $600 shirt.

No, even though you know he wanted to.

Speaking of, this weekend we recorded a really great podcast episode.

That's what we did on Saturday.

And we like didn't even talk about it because it was just like the weekend, but we recorded our Naggy Bitch Wives episode.

Right.

Where toasters around the world submitted their situations with their husband.

Like, am I justified or am I really a Naggy Bitch wife?

And it was so funny to just all kind of commiserate and unite about the things that our husbands do that are unacceptable.

Like, I felt better afterwards.

Yeah, I felt better afterwards too.

I feel like we all felt really seen.

So if you want to listen to that, head over to patreon.com slash toast.

You better.

Yeah, our girlies never stop working for you.

Never, ever.

So it was like a great weekend full of fun.

I spent a lot of time alone because Ben was on a work trip.

So, oh, I watched, I'm now officially like caught up with Bravo.

I feel like I've been so slacking in my Bravo content.

I watched all of Roni and all of Salt Lake City.

Well, Salt Lake City is only on episode four.

And it's just,

there's so much to talk about.

And now that I'm like back, I have been like talking to all my friends about it because I'm like, what does everyone think?

I'm like delayed.

But Roni is so interesting to me.

Like it's really, it's such a different show.

It is, I wouldn't say there's one thing that's similar

to the old franchise in the sense that like they go out a lot and they like are always having cocktails like i've never seen any of them drunk so far in 11 episodes and while i think roney was really extreme towards the end where every single episode was somebody multiple people getting completely blackout having fights incoherently and then waking up the next morning and not remembering it like it was just frustrating you couldn't even follow a storyline this time like nobody really is like getting like even like remotely drunk they're all just like drinking cocktails the whole time which is like good and healthy of course but i feel like somebody like needs to get really drunk like for the sake of the plot honestly yeah or like it feels like they're just not letting their guard down because you know they're not.

You're too savvy at this point.

Like you've seen, what, 15 years of reality TV?

Yep.

And you don't want to be that person.

And these are all like smart women.

So why would anyone do that?

Let me say the show is not incredible, but it has really great qualities.

And one of them is that like every single one of these girls, with the exception of Bryn, because I think Bryn's apartment building doesn't let her film.

So we don't know what her house looks like.

They have amazing, beautiful apartments and all over different neighborhoods in the city.

All like, you know, some classic, some brownstone, some loft.

And it's the real estate is fabulous.

Like, really, truly, Jenna Lynne's apartment is amazing.

Jessel's apartment, size brownstone.

Like, it's really, it's a fabulous group of gals in terms of their lifestyles.

And they, I would say, I don't think any of them are actual housewives.

They all work.

Great.

That's what you asked for.

Yeah.

It's, it needs some work, but I also think like the more this group becomes a group, they're not a group of friends.

You know, they're castmates put together.

Right.

The more that they become a group with history, like the more time, I do think it really does have potential.

Great.

Yeah.

So I felt good.

Like I'm all caught up.

I used my time wisely this weekend.

I use my time wisely as well because I read the Redheads book, Forth Wing, which is a book that has kind of swept the nation.

It's fantasy.

The next book comes out in November.

So it's going to be a series.

Like it's very

hunger games.

People said it's like divergent, reminds me of Game of Thrones, Twilight, everything.

It was amazing.

Really?

How do you have to read it?

Okay.

It's so good.

You have to like be patient with it because you're entering a new world.

So they're like describing all these things.

You have to understand like how the dragons work and everything.

You know, it's kind of like Game of Thrones like that.

I've never read a book like that.

That's like not based in reality.

Yeah.

I've never read a fantasy book like that

where there's all of the, like, I have to understand.

The utopia.

Yes, but it's worth it.

And then the next book comes out in November.

So like the end will have you hooked and you don't have to wait that long for the next one.

Okay.

I think it's going to be like our best episode of The Red Heads ever.

Wow.

Because the book is so popular.

So so many people are interested.

And then there's so many different like theories and conspiracies and what's going to happen.

And there's so much fodder.

And I think also all four of us loved it, I believe.

I haven't heard from Dana yet.

I could see her having issues with some of the writing because it's like, then it's also smutty.

Yeah, gonna i'm reading carrie soto right now and then i'll do the fourth wing yeah i think you would really really like it and i'm really really excited about it i'm excited to be back with my girls we took a month off of the redheads oh my god and i think redheads support women yeah i didn't read at all since i've given birth and so i had to read a book and i really honestly did not have the time but i made the time i'm so glad that i did it was really nice to like just get into something good

I'm so glad.

So if you were debating reading along with us this month, pick up fourth wing.

And that really can start with fresh, healthy dog food.

So we made the switch from like Kibble to the farmer's dog.

Like now I feel like eight months ago.

It is so I feel I have seen immediate benefits from his coat being so much shinier his poops being more regular and just like more normal sizes his breath.

Oh my God, I'm like very sensitive to breath.

And while I know people like love dog breath, I don't.

Theo's is markedly markedly better.

And welcome.

Our first story, Taylor Swift, cheers for Travis Kelsey at the Chiefs versus Gets Jets game.

Not the Sharks versus Jets.

I know it's confusing.

But it was Chiefs versus Jets with Ryan Reynolds, Sophie Turner, Blake Lively, Hugh Jackman, Sabrina Carpenter,

Brittany Kelsey, Brittany Mahomes, Austin, Swift.

Yes.

The gang was all there.

So it was a star-studded box as Taylor's rumored beau, Travis, took on the New York Jets.

Let me tell you how my seat was like right behind the Kansas City Chiefs sideline.

So, like, Travis was literally five feet from me the whole time.

And it's so interesting to see how, like, football and TV actually works because there were so many clips that went viral of Travis the first game that she went to.

He was like looking up and be like, wow, she's right there.

You saw that one?

Yeah.

And to see it on the ground, like, the camera's literally right in your face.

Like, you're, you know, that you're being televised.

There's like a big red light on the camera.

So I think a lot, like, like, Travis knows what's going on, and he's definitely, you know, making a moment out of it, which I totally respect and appreciate.

But it was just very interesting to see how the sauce gets made.

It's like, literally, they just follow him around the entire time, him and Patrick Mahomes.

Like, that's it.

Right.

It's not like they really kind of

off guard in a cute moment.

Like, he knows the whole time he's being filmed, just like the whole time Taylor knows everyone in the stadium is watching her and the NFL cameras are trying to get their viral moment too.

Yeah.

It was just interesting because, you know, it's a little more orchestrated than one might see on TV.

Yeah, no, they're giving us what we want, and they're definitely playing it up for the cameras.

I don't think that means it's fake by any means, but it's not like they're trying to hide how they feel or their relationship.

So as opposed to last time where she went by herself with her bodyguards to Travis' family suite, she procured her own suite.

I believe she was in the owner of the Giants suite because the Giants also play in that stadium.

So that guy has his own.

So I believe she either bought or borrowed from him and stacked it with her whole crew.

I'm sure she had like way more fun not being alone in like a foreign city.

Not that Kansas City is foreign, but like she doesn't know anyone there.

This time she came like crew deep.

She brought one of her backup singers who's been her backup singer forever.

I was like so excited to see her because I recognized her from the Eristor and from like Reputation Netflix movie.

Sabrina Carpenter, I loved.

And she's, it's so interesting to me.

I've fallen down like a Brittany Mahomes rabbit hole

because of course now Taylor, Brittany Mahomes is obviously well known, especially in the football world, but Taylor brings it to another level.

And Brittany Mahomes just gets like trolled for literally no fucking reason.

And I was like, what is the reason people hate Brittany Mahomes?

And let me tell you, there isn't one.

I think people were off-put by some of her social content when her and Patrick just kind of burst onto the scene.

And like, who cares?

She was just excited.

What was her social content?

She was just like a little rowdy.

You know, she would like spray people with champagne in the box.

And like, you know, then Jackson was making TikToks.

So like, they got like a bad rap.

And I was like, what is the bad rap for?

Like, what did they do?

Like, who did they kill?

Why do does everyone hate them?

And honestly, I like her so much.

Apparently, she does so much for her community in Kansas City.

She's like a huge champion for women in sports.

She's just like a, like a leader in her community.

And she gets like so much shit for no fucking reason.

And I need everyone to stop.

Okay.

Yeah.

Justice for Brittany Mahomes.

And I feel like she's getting justice for herself.

She's out with Taylor.

They were at dinner last week before the game while the team was in town.

She's in a box with literally all the biggest stars in the world.

Like it's a good day to be Brittany Mahomes.

Yeah.

So Saturday night, the night before the game, Taylor went out, not with Travis, but with Brittany Mahomes and a bunch of her friends.

She ate at a private dining room at Emilio's Bellata, which is like the best Italian restaurant in the city.

And

Travis was out with Patrick somewhere else.

But then there was paparazzi photos of Travis actually leaving Taylor's apartment Sunday morning in a Range Rover to head to the game, which I believe is like against NFL protocol.

Like you have to sleep in the team hotel like the night before the game.

Well, it's not, we don't know for sure that he slept at Taylor's.

But it was the next morning.

Maybe he went over to breakfast.

Yeah, we didn't see him arrive the night prior.

That's true.

I do wonder, I feel like they do have to stay at the hotel, but maybe if like you have a friend who lives in town, why can't you stay with your friend?

What if you have a place in this city?

Like, can you stay at your place?

No, because even when you're at a home game, I believe if you're at your home game, you still have to stay at a team hotel by the stadium.

I'm almost like 100% sure of that.

Wow.

Yeah.

So maybe he just went for breakfast.

Perhaps.

Or maybe he's getting special treatment.

But I also, I thought it said he left in the afternoon.

That's what I saw a headline that said he left in the afternoon.

So like maybe he.

Oh, I saw a headline that said in the morning.

Interesting.

Yeah.

Compared to the

12 p.m.

Yeah, I mean, it's confusing.

Morning is like a, it's subject to interpretation.

It is.

Plus it was a night game.

So he had the day.

Right.

Why not see the town?

Yeah.

Even though I know that's not how it works in the NFL and they are on a very strict schedule.

Yeah.

So there's like a lot of rules and it seems like Taylor, I mean, Travis might be getting a a little special treatment.

I mean, for the work he's doing for NFL PR, like I would understand, but you know, we're all equals.

Yeah.

And as long as he plays well, they won the game.

I feel like you could make some exceptions.

It was touch and go there for a minute.

Like they almost lost.

But I think that made it much more exciting.

Honestly,

not to be like such a

contrarian.

I was kind of rooting for the Jets for a second there.

So was I.

I mean, I'm a New Yorker.

I really was rooting for the Jets because I do love an underdog.

I just thought it would be an amazing story.

Like, it was so obvious that the Chiefs are going to win.

They just won the Super Bowl and the Jets just lost their quarterback.

They, yeah, they can't catch a break.

So I don't care if that makes me a contrarian.

Yeah, I was rooting for the Jets a little bit.

Jackie, it does, first of all, you're born and bred in New York.

Like, it doesn't make you a contrarian at all.

First of all, calm down.

You're not from Kansas City.

The country was rooting for Travis.

I actually don't know if people were rooting for Travis.

I think everybody is so interested in this saga.

They're just watching to see what happens.

Okay.

Okay.

Yeah, I'm not afraid to say it.

You're not saying anything crazy.

Calm down.

I think it's crazy.

I think people are going to think that's crazy.

I was 100% reading for the Jets.

Like I was wearing a Jets hat and it was really so exciting because I think we all walked in there assuming we had nearly a shot in hell.

And we only lost by three points and it was, you know, suspended.

But that's a win to the very end.

It wasn't like this obvious thing the whole time.

First quarter, I was like, oh, we're screwed.

Second, third, and fourth, it was up in the air.

Yeah, the Jets should be proud of themselves.

Plus, I'm a fan of Aaron Rodgers.

That's his team now.

He was there.

He got, so he got his surgery and he got his Achilles surgery done by like, of course, the best of the best surgeon who lives in California.

He got cleared to fly back.

He was at the stadium.

I believe he was in the booth, like on the headset talking to like the players and coaches.

Oh, interesting.

So he's trying.

Good.

I'm happy for him.

Also, I feel like for the arc of Taylor and Travis's relationship, they kind of need to experience experience a loss because I feel like then she could really be there for him and that's how they'll take the next step.

But, like, when everything's always good all the time, it's hard to progress and grow.

Yeah, I wonder how many more of his games she's going to attend.

Her tour does pick back up,

I believe, at the end of the year.

So, like, right now, she's in her offseason and she can really fly and go wherever she wants and just have fun, which is fabulous because she's worked so hard for like the last year.

But she is going back.

Where does he play next?

Pull up the Chiefs schedule.

Chiefs schedule.

But she also has the Eris Tour documentary coming out right when your book comes out.

And then she has a 1989 Taylor's version.

So she is going to start have to, like, looking out for number one relatively soon.

For sure.

But she could keep her Sundays open, a day of rest.

A day of rest and fun.

Okay.

What's today's date?

Oh, next week they're at the Minnesota Vikings.

What day?

Sunday.

The week after that, they have a home home game against Denver.

What day?

The 12th.

But that's Eras to our documentary comes out the Thursday.

I feel like the weekday ones she won't go to, but a Sunday?

Okay, so then October 22nd, she's like done with her press for Eras.

They're playing, oh, but in

they're playing LA.

Los Angeles Chargers.

I thought it was the Rams.

Claudia, I can't tell you how long.

I thought it was San Diego.

Claudia, I can't tell you how long me, Zach, Zach, and Olivia talked about the LA teams yesterday because we were watching the Rams game.

It's Los Angeles Rams now and Los Angeles Chargers.

The Chargers came up from San Diego and now they're in Los Angeles.

I don't know.

And I was just saying how like.

No, by the way, their colors are blue and yellow.

It's literally the same colors as the Rams.

No, and Los Angeles just like isn't a city for sports aside from.

for football because

Shapiro was like the Lakers.

I was like Clippers.

Yeah, they're the exception.

For football, I feel like everyone like moves to Los Angeles, so they like have their home team in their heart.

Yeah.

And there's no one who like really has like LA pride.

Wait, I'm so confused.

First of all, like San Diego deserves love.

San Diego is a fabulous city.

Like they need a team.

Yeah.

No, it's not.

Do the Chargers also play

at SoFi?

I mean, I guess they spent all this money, like billions of dollars on this new SoFi stadium.

It's probably like one of the nicest stadiums in the country.

I guess like a stadium that big needs two teams.

I guess, but it's also, why does one city need two teams?

Because then my husband was like, oh, well, it's New York Jets and New York Giants.

I was like, that's a state and it's a big ass state.

It's not the California Rams and the California Chargers because you also have the 49ers.

Yeah, San Francisco.

They have three teams there and they used to have the Raiders.

They did it.

Yeah, yeah.

Now they're Vegas.

Wait, very interesting point you make.

Why does one city need two teams?

No, and tell me why.

Why it's a city full of people who aren't even allegiant to their city.

It's not a city with a lot of pride.

Let me tell you, let me ask you why New York Giants and New York Jets play in New Jersey.

It's like a logistical thing, but like it actually is so like in,

what's the word I'm looking for?

Inconsistent?

Yeah.

Like I was in New Jersey last night.

That's just their cross to bear.

Yeah, I mean, it's so classic New York.

Like you need a place with enough space for an arena close to New York, which isn't the capital, but it's like the city of New York.

I guess we're going to Jersey.

But I don't understand why not Long Island or Hudson Valley or Westchester.

Westchester, yeah.

I don't understand, but at least the Buffalo Bills figured it out.

Yeah.

Don't forget about the Buffalo Bills.

It's really hard not to, but Haley Steinfeld's helping.

She is helping.

Now let's talk about the guests in attendance with Taylore because she's really been in her Blake and Sophie era.

So they, of course, attended.

Then Blake brought her husband, Ryan, who brought his friend Hugh Jackman, who

is really funny that he was there.

Yeah, he's definitely like an oddball.

Like, and I wouldn't, you know, have thought we would have been there.

No, but he's really good friends with Ryan.

I'm sure he likes football to some degree.

He's newly single.

Right.

He's got to get out on the town.

Do we ship him in Sophie?

Do we ship him in Sabrina?

No, we don't.

It's also really weird for me to see Taylor and her big tall friends like hanging with such a shorty.

I mean, it makes Sabrina look so short.

It's weird because Sabrina and Sophie are probably the same age or around the same age, and it just looks like she's their kid.

I feel like Sabrina's probably a little younger than Sophie.

Sophie's 27.

Sabrina's probably 24.

I would say 24.

Right.

So they're like in the same age group, but like it does not feel that way.

No, it looks like Taylor's little sister's friend.

Yeah, Sabrina's 24.

Oh, okay.

Also, I fell asleep last night thinking about Sabrina and Taylor Swift.

I love their friendship and I love that she opened for her on the Aristotle in South America.

And I'm so sorry, but like I have to bring up the Olivia Rodrigo of it all.

Like it's really so bizarre to me.

And I definitely think there's bad blood between

Olivia Rodrigo and Taylor Swift.

Like it's honestly at this point, there's no doubt in my mind.

And we could, you know, wax on about what that's about for an eternity.

But I think that the friendship with Taylor and Sabrina is so interesting.

And I don't think it's like a direct thing like, fuck Olivia Rodrigo.

I'm going to be friends with Sabrina Carpenter.

I really feel like Taylor feels, I think when we all look back on like that first album and the driver's license, I think we all feel like a collective regret for how Sabrina Carpenter was treated during that time when she really didn't do anything wrong.

Yeah.

And I feel like her friendship with, Taylor's friendship with Sabrina Carpenter is kind of a reflection of that.

Like whether she knew it or not, her hyping up Olivia Rodrigo at the time made the whole driver's license, it made the whole thing bigger.

Like once Taylor got involved, it was big and then it got bigger.

Yeah.

And in the end, it resulted in like the bullying and the teardown of Sabrina Carpenter, who quite literally did nothing wrong.

In the words words of Serena Carpenter, oh, because I liked a boy.

Like, she didn't do anything wrong.

And I feel like Taylor bringing her into the fold and having her, you know, come out with her and then open for her is all just like her way of trying to like correct the situation, assuage maybe some of the guilt.

Yeah.

I think that's fair.

Like, I think we're all guilty, like, when we were all so involved, like, Serena Carpenter literally didn't do anything wrong.

And she became this, like, crazy villain.

She got like crazy death threats.

Like she didn't do anything.

Yeah, I also don't think Joshua Bassett did anything wrong.

Me neither.

And I don't think Olivia Rodrigo did anything wrong in writing about her feelings.

Like that's what being a singer-songwriter is.

But I do think there was more that she could have done at the time to like stop people from attacking Sabrina Carpenter, you know?

She kind of just let it all play out and stood back.

She didn't light the fire, but I do think there's like a responsibility at some point.

That's how I feel about like when Selena Gomez's fans like go crazy after Haley Bieber.

Like, some Haley, I mean, Selena Gomez has stepped in and been like, stop.

And there's power in that, honestly.

And

yeah, I'm trying to think about what is best and like where it goes so wrong, but then it's just like, what's wrong with people?

Yeah, I know, I know, I know.

What's wrong with people?

Like, why are you sending death threats?

Like, get a life.

Like,

because someone's dating someone who broke up with someone else.

There there literally was no cheating, nothing.

Like, what's wrong with people?

It's an amazing question and one that I've thought about at length and have come to absolutely no sort of conclusion for.

I don't know.

Neither do I.

Anyways, I'm happy for Sabrina.

It's funny that, like, she was hanging out with Hugh Chackman.

Like, he literally could be her grandmother.

Three times her age.

Three times her height.

And that's the thing about Taylor.

Like, she's bringing together this kind of ragtag ragtag group of gals and guys.

Yeah.

No, it was a great crew.

It really was.

And it made the game so exciting at home in the stadium.

I was really, really grateful to be there.

And I'm so into football.

Like, not me getting excited.

Tonight's Monday night football.

Like, who's playing?

Who's playing?

Sharks first chets?

I hope so.

That'll kind of, that'll probably be the Super Bowl.

Yeah.

Okay, wait.

Who do you think will be in the Super Bowl?

I really, like, I have a lot of hope for the 49ers.

I'm, I'm, like, a big, and they are incredibly good.

Like, Like, they're killing Brock Purdy, Christian, Kyle, George, like, the crew.

I actually think they have a chance, but that's if they beat the Eagles.

Like, they're in the same league.

Right.

And I feel like the Kansas City Chiefs are definitely the best in their league.

Like, they're going to be that team.

But then the other league, I don't know who is going to.

I feel like it could be Kelsey v.

Kelsey again, but I would love for it to be the 49ers versus the Chiefs.

Has that ever happened where the same two teams play in the Super Bowl two years in a row?

I believe.

I think it will be the 49ers in the Super Bowl.

And I don't know enough about who's on the other

side.

I don't know if it'll be the Chiefs again.

You don't know.

It's always someone random.

It's so true.

Also, Joe Burrow, what team is he on?

Jaguars?

No.

It's black and red.

Those are the colors.

I mean, orange and red.

The Bengals.

The Bengals.

Cincinnati Bengals.

Thank you.

Oh, they were in the Super Bowl two years ago.

No, and like, they're always really good.

Would love for them to get a chance.

You know, there's so many good-looking footballers who deserve the chance to be on the Super Bowl.

Every time I encounter a new team and meet the players and hear about their stories, like I find something so lovable about them.

I really do.

That's the hard part about being a football fan and an empath.

It's true.

And being someone like obsessed with celebrities and pop culture, because there's always a connection to be made.

Like one of my favorite people on social media right now is Hannah Ann from The Bachelor.

She's like so so out of bachelor world.

She is engaged to a football player.

I believe he believes he plays on the Colts.

Go Indiana, you know?

Go Indiana.

I mean, now I live in Florida.

I've got three teams that I can root for.

Oh, and then the Alex Earl, like go Dolphins.

Go Dolphins.

The Dolphins crushed last week.

I actually feel like

Jackie, they lost like really bad yesterday.

Oh, did they?

Because I was about to say they're going to the Super Bowl.

They're not.

But then it's like, oh my God, Olivia Culpo, go Niners.

Sierra.

Like, there's so many players worth rooting for based on who they're dating.

Haley Steinfeld go bills.

Right.

Like I could find, like, that's what's exciting for me about being team agnostic when it comes to football is like I could watch any game and find someone to root for.

Yeah, me too.

No, I'm obsessed.

It's really, really nice.

So that's your sports recap for today.

I know there's a handful of doubters, non-believers who want us to stop talking about sports, but we can't be stopped.

No, we're not like other girls.

Like we love football.

No, and like there's always going to be something at the toast where it's like that is the topic of the month, of the season, whatever it is.

Like, it was Kardashians for so long,

it was royal stuff for so long.

Like, now it's football, like, this, we're in our football season, it's just

for diversifying our portfolio, like, yeah, it's tailor, like, it's always, there's always going to be something.

So, if whatever the flavor of the month is, is not for you, like, I'm sorry, but get on board, it's fun, we're just having fun.

Get on board, it's fun, yeah,

get on board, It's fun.

And nothing goes together like football and chili.

Oh man, it's so true.

The fact that like football is really like a food activity does make it more fun.

It's also fashion.

It's everything.

Everything.

We've been missing out.

We really have.

I'm like mad.

Okay, moving on to celebrity fodder.

Okay.

Pete Davidson crashed his SUV while leaving his stand-up comedy show after his reckless driving charge.

So Pete Davidson crashed the side of his car after leaving his stand-up comedy show at the Wiltern in LA on Saturday night.

The SNL alum who entered an 18-month diversion program in July following a reckless driving charge hosted an after party when he left around 11 p.m.

An eyewitness saw him swipe his car against the side of a wall while exiting the venue.

Yikes.

I'm trying to think because I performed at the Wiltern and I'm trying to think sometimes like the back alleys where you go to the stage door are really narrow.

But if I'm remembering correctly, the Wiltered one is huge.

Like there's so much space.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It looks like he's got kind of a wide berth.

I also would say like he's from Staten Island.

He might be like me who like didn't grow up driving.

Like if I was leaving the Wiltered at 10 p.m., even if you take an Uber.

I would take an Uber, but if I did happen to be driving, like, yeah, I'm going to swipe some shit.

Yeah.

So true.

No, the thing is, the fact that this was a swipe, not like a crash, is very interesting.

And there's also like paparazzi taking pictures.

Like, I imagine it was a stressful situation.

It's just bad in light of his last crashing into a home with his girlfriend.

And now he's just like the car crasher.

But I also think that's a good idea.

I didn't even talk, by the way, how him and Chase Dewey Wonders broke up and he's dating Madeline Klein.

We're going to talk about that in a second.

But I also think he's probably not a good driver because he probably drove late growing up as a city kid.

That's my take.

I think on Staten Island, it's very suburban.

I do believe you actually do drive like in high school in Staten Island.

I'm just saying, like, maybe it's less about what Pete's going through mentally and more about him being a really bad driver.

No, it's anything is possible in this lifetime, but my money is going to be on like,

what's going on with Pete Davidson?

What's going on with Pete Davidson is a question to be asked.

And also like, why not get a chauffeur?

When you're so famous, there's just no reason you should ever be driving yourself, especially it's a big night for you.

You probably want to celebrate.

You don't need to focus on the road.

Let a professional chauffeur chauffeur you around and you can enjoy maybe cuddle up to Madeline in the back seat.

Like,

everybody got to be doing everything all the time.

Like, pick a car.

Some people, driving's just not for them.

I would say that about you for sure.

Yeah.

I'm going to give it another shot, but what if it's just not for me?

It's so important to like recognize things that are for you and things that are not for you, you know?

Yeah.

So let's talk about him and Madeline.

Like, who really thought that he was going to, like, every time someone like continues their pattern, I'm just like, oh, I thought we were done.

No.

And the thing is, I don't find it shocking that Pete Davidson's dating Madeline Klein.

I really find it shocking that Madeline Klein is dating Pete Davidson.

Like, at this point, I wouldn't want to be one of those girls.

Like, and with Chase Suey Wonders, it actually made sense because she's relatively unknown.

So, like, that really was like a good PR move.

And I think they met on a set.

And I feel like he might be the type of guy, if once you're in a room with him, like, if he woos you, it's like, I don't care what the people say or what the haters think.

I love this man.

So, like, if he can get you to that place of like falling for him, then all that stuff falls away.

But it's like, how and why did Madeline embark on this relationship?

Yeah, and I just don't see her wanting to be like another one in a line.

That's why I was surprised when Kim dated him.

Like you just want to date someone that everyone has dated to the point where it's almost like a joke now.

And now Kim dating him made it even more of a trope.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It just like continues.

Every time it just gets crazier and crazier.

But that's why I really think there's something so magnetic about him that like

being like, I don't care what the people say.

I love this man.

There has to be something like that.

I love Madeline Klein.

I recently fell into like a rabbit hole of her and Kelsey Ballerini like being friends, which I love.

And I think she's like a, I think she's like similar to Pete in the sense, like, of course, she's so beautiful and talented, but I think she really has this like way about her, this kind of like, kind of Markle sparkle.

Like people are really drawn to her.

And so obviously like the coupling makes sense, but I don't know.

It's like unoriginal.

I kind of expected more from Madeline, honestly.

I was like really looking forward to who she was going to date after John Bay.

The couple makes a lot of sense.

If they would stay together i would support it but until they're together for enough time i'm not paying attention i how does that sound it sounds like exactly what i was thinking but couldn't verbalize so thank you

so jerry's out

jerry's out but also like pete take a car take an uber take a taxi hire a chauffeur at black lane like there's a thousand things you should driving's just not for you and driving's not for everyone

sad but true it's a sad truth are you ready for our next story yes

speaking of Pete, Kim Kardashian is back in bed with Balenciaga.

She didn't walk in the show, but she posed for the brand's lookbook.

So fans are confused, concerned, because Kim is with Balenciaga again.

She didn't actually walk in their fashion show at Paris Fashion Week, but she did pose for the brand's lookbook.

The reality star was included in the runway looks provided by the brand following the show on Sunday in Paris, France.

And Twitter account tweeted that Kim,

re-Kim at Balenciaga, Demna just told this person who's like a fashion person told me at the after party that Kim is actually not not in Paris anymore She left after the Victoria Beckham show and party and they just shot her for the lookbook since she wasn't here Whatever.

She's still like working.

Yeah, I guess she would have walked if she was in Paris, wasn't in Paris.

So she's she's affiliated with the brand once again.

I find this so odd and like incongruous because

And this is the conversation we're having with the current season of Kardashians.

Like Courtney's like, all you care about is like what people think of you and like money and deals.

And this is so bad for Kim's image

that it seems like such an odd sacrifice.

But at the same time, what we know about Kim, and I think she would admit this herself, is like how desperate she is for validation from the fashion world, from like these legacy brands, these big fashion houses, like Joe Chegabano.

She'll throw her sister under the bus, like Balenciaga, she'll throw morality under the bus.

Like she really is so desperate to be taken seriously and be like a serious person and a respected figure in the fashion world.

So like, I get like that for me, my understanding is like, that's why she's doing it.

But at the end of the day, she is so

image obsessed, understandably so, that this is, there's anytime she wears, like, there is backlash and like it just, it makes people think less of her.

So I find it shocking that she would continue to do it.

Yeah, I don't understand it.

And I don't have a theory as to why she's doing it.

I don't think it's just for high fashion's approval because there's a ton of brands she could work with in the high fashion space.

And so if she was able to like end her relationship with them after, you know, those images, then why would she resume it?

Especially if she just worked with Dolce, she could have done something else, she could have done more Dolce.

Yeah, like Kylie did Acne Studios.

I'm sure there's not like a limited amount of brands that want to work with her.

If she wanted to be like Louis Vuitton has like a million celebrity

Zendaya, Sophie Turner, they have like a million celebrity ambassadors.

I don't know.

I feel like she has a lot of options.

Yeah,

she works with Fendi for skims.

Right.

So

it's not just that.

And I don't have a theory as to why she continues to do it especially because like maybe i was thinking maybe she signed what a three-year contract with them and like she has to finish it out but then she still like wears them in her casual time off duty

yeah so i think perhaps it's just like a personal relationship with the creative directors and like the team there and she loves them and wants to work with them it's like And I think you said it and it's so true.

At the end of the day, like the Lukes that are being turned out for for Balenciaga are not even like giving gorgeous, high-fashion, obsessed model.

Like, can't wait to get my hands on it.

It's so

like ugly.

And tired.

Yeah.

So to keep going back when there's so much at stake and it's a risk, when it's, what is the benefit?

Maybe she has personal relationships with the creative teams there and doesn't believe in her heart of hearts that they are bad people who are exploiting children.

Like, and she's, you know, it's kind of like Milan Ashen writing the letter.

Right, right, right, right, right, right.

Maybe it's that.

Okay, go off.

Go off.

It's not for me.

Go off in the Spandex, yeah.

But speaking of good fashion campaigns.

No.

No, you don't want to speak of them?

No, I do, but you need to speak.

Are you aware that you have a job to do today?

Am I aware?

That's rude.

Am I aware?

No, I was just saying, like, you were steamrolling into the fourth story.

Well, I really

wanted to hit my segue and then I was going to circle back to the work that I needed to do.

Oh, honestly, I thought you had forgotten for real.

No, no, no, no.

I did not forget.

We're going to speak of good fashion campaigns and there's a really good high fashion one, but there's also a fashion campaign that we need to speak about.

And that is Charlie Weinreb for Dreamland Baby.

Charlie Weinreb for Dreamland Baby.

Agreed.

Because Dreamland Baby is a sponsor of today's show.

Dreamland Baby has the weighted swaddle.

I've spoken about the weighted swaddle before and how it is amazing and it's a game changer for moms, caretakers, babies.

It's been a game changer for Charlie.

So last time I talked about Dreamland Swaddle, I was saying I love it because it obviously has the weighted sleep sack, which is pretty much like what a gravity blanket does for you.

The weighted swaddle does for the baby.

It's just relaxing.

They can get calm.

They can go to sleep.

It's wonderful.

I was using it arms out up until this point, but I don't know.

I hit a breaking point like some last week or the week before where I was like, I'm putting your arms in because he kept startling and waking himself up.

The startle reflux happens until three months old.

So I put his arms in and the reason why I didn't do it at first is because he's fought himself out of every swaddle.

I'm like, the boy doesn't like to be swaddled.

I use the Dreamland swaddle to swaddle his arms in.

Peace on earth.

It is that Velcro.

The way that it's just built, it was so good for his arms.

He wasn't fighting.

He couldn't get out of it.

He wasn't even trying because he was so at peace.

So I'm here to say not only is the Dreamland swaddle amazing, weighted arms in, arms out, but the Velcro to keep the arms in, it's a superior Swadole.

So I love Dreamland Baby Swaddle for my babies.

Also, solutions for Bebez, the Braun thermometer.

Unfortunately, part of being

a parent is watching your kids get sick.

And it's just par for the course, especially the older they get.

They're out there.

Kids have germs.

And it's just something you need to accept.

But when they are sick, you want to have the right tools on your hand.

A hands, both hands is fine, which is why I love the bronzermometer.

Not only does it take baby's temperature accurately, but they also have so many great tools for parents to track babies' sickness, healing, getting better, sharing information with your doctors.

A fever in newborns can be more concerning than a fever in toddlers.

So they have fever thresholds that you set your thermometer to what age your toddler is and they will let you know if that is a concerning fever.

They also have an app where you can plug all this information in and keep track of how your kids are doing, especially if you've been with multiple kids.

It's hard to keep all these numbers apart.

So the Braun Smart Thermometer is the best thermometer on the market.

I've been using it all the time.

Visit Amazon, search for Braun Smart Thermometer and use code 20 Toast at checkout for 20%

off your order.

That's Amazon.

Search Braun Smart Thermometer and use code 20 Toast for 20% off of your order.

These are two baby products that I genuinely love, use pretty much every single day around here.

Recommend highly.

Now I can talk about the other good fashion news other than Charlie for Dreamlands.

For Dreamland, baby.

Kendall Jenner and Bad Bunny flaunt their romance in a stylish new Gucci campaign.

Now, this is how you do fashion.

This is, no, this is how you launch a relationship.

How you launch a

A relationship, how you partner with a brand.

Right.

All of it.

Kendall Jenner and Bad Bunny are showing off how smitten they are with each other in the latest Gucci campaign.

In photos posted to the brand's Instagram on Saturday, the two pose together as they carry the Gucci Vallegaria travel collection through an airport.

So there's a video of them just like taking a few steps through an airport, catching flights and feelings.

Yeah.

And some pictures to go along with it as well, where they look like paparazzi photos of the two.

You know, it's a bit of a

simple.

No, it's like an art imitating life.

I actually thought like the creative direction, this was genius on Gucci's part.

However, they got both of them to agree to do this because Kendall's notoriously private about her relationships.

Like none of her boyfriends are really ever on the show and...

barely on her Instagram.

So this is like kind of crazy public for her, which was shocking.

And she did it in a way that she's comfortable with, like modeling for a high fashion brand.

It's fabulous.

I'm shocked, but it's fabulous.

I I feel like also he's into it too, because I feel like maybe her other boyfriends were private themselves and wouldn't have gone for something like this.

So that makes you want to be private.

But when you have someone who's used to being in fashion campaigns and is such a big star, it's like, well, let's do our big star tings together.

It's exactly like Taylor and Travis.

Let's do our big star tings together.

When it's her and Joe, yeah, quiet, sleepy over there.

Right, quiet, sleepy.

Yeah, and I think Kendall has really been making like major waves at Paris Fashion Week.

Like this was a really good PFW for her.

Of course, this Gucci thing, she closed the Scaparelli show with the big hair fran fine outfit.

She walked as Jenna Lyons for Victoria Beckham.

She,

as the new face of L'Oreal, L'Oreal had a huge fashion show under the Eiffel Tower.

It actually looked sick.

And Kendall had like this kind of like choreographed runway thing.

It was beautiful.

Like it was actually really, really, really cool.

It was really cool.

It was cool to see her, even though I know she wasn't dancing, but people dancing around her and her in the middle made it look like she was dancing.

It was more of like a lighthearted show.

I feel like so many of the Paris fashion make shows are so serious.

And for Scaparelli, like she got dragged for walking the way that she walked, even though all the models were, they were clearly told to walk like freaks.

So when you're a model, you just do what you're told.

Yeah, I didn't even think it was that weird.

I've seen much weirder model walks when they walk so angry, huffing and puffing down the runway.

I felt like it was one of those like classic, you know, when you watch like movies from like 1940s, that's how like fashion shows used to look.

It was just like women parading around a room.

That was the vibe I got.

Like I didn't think anything of it.

And her sister was there.

Like I thought it was all cute.

The internet has a way of making everything just ruinous.

No, negative.

Negative.

Yeah, she literally did nothing wrong, but she's kind of been killing it.

Like she's really in the, in the press a lot, like not for the show, not for her, like for her line of work, which is modeling.

And I thought it was a fabulous Paris Fashion Week to be Kendall Jenner.

Yeah, I feel like she had taken some time off, even maybe admittedly, when she walked like one show for Prada last year.

She wasn't like walking as much.

She did Versace too.

I love it for her.

And I'm happy for her and her new relationship that obviously they're

real enough and serious enough that they're going to put it out there like this.

Yeah.

Even if it doesn't last, like it's beautiful images.

It's a moment in time.

Wait, even if it doesn't last, okay, so what?

She was in a modeling campaign as a model.

Like there are photos of her and an ex-boyfriend, but it's just a modeling campaign.

Right, like with a fellow celebrity.

It's not like she like lifted up, you know, her man off the street.

No, it's harmless.

Yeah, these two could have been booked for a campaign like this, even if they weren't dating what and honestly i feel like that's like a an alternate universe how they could have met yeah or maybe they met in the ideation phase for this perhaps perhaps so cute it's cute i like it i really like them as a couple me too i know that's like a hot take really no people just like to date on her yeah

sometimes it's warranted but sometimes it's not it's not yeah it's not only when she's talking about how she's really into wellness yeah and health are you ready for our fifth and final story Claudia?

It's the story we've been waiting for.

Okay.

Months and months because we've reached a tentative deal.

The WGA and the AMPTP reached a tentative agreement to end the writer's strike, and the picketing has been suspended.

The Writers Guild has reached a tentative agreement with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers.

Oh, I guess that's what that stands for.

To end its strike after nearly five months, the parties finalized the framework of the deal Sunday when they were able to untangle the stalemate over AI and writing room staffing levels.

So they've reached a tentative agreement, which is to say an agreement in principle on all deal points, subject to drafting final contract language.

Yeah, it doesn't sound like it's for sure.

No, but like people can get back to work while they finalize the deal points.

Hopefully there aren't that many major sticking points that would make them get back on the picket line.

Yeah, well, now that WGA is like nearing an agreement, it's believed that SAG will in the next week.

Like they're one in the same.

I forgot that that's like two separate strike.

I thought this was like end strike.

No, they're two separate strikes, but it does also,

right?

And this is like what Drew Barrymore was being, like, she was being

striked for not striking.

Right.

So late night shows are going back to showing.

Yeah, speaking shows today, like Jamie Fallon's back.

They're back now because they needed writers.

They don't have like SAG actors.

Got it.

But actually, they still can't really have guests

because any SAG member going on to promote a project is in violation of the strike.

Okay, but I thought then the SAG joined the WGA like in support of the writers, but now they're stuck on the strike alone?

Yeah, no, it was confusing because did SAG go on strike in solidarity with WGA or for their own terms?

I believe both.

Oh, but the SAG and the actors were worried about AI.

Yes, everyone was worried about AI.

So can AI start writing TV shows?

Can AI start replicating?

Like you pay a background actor $25 to do one day of work, and then you use AI-generated face 25 different times as different background actors in 10 different shows.

Yeah, so they have their own gripes that they're striking for.

Yes, yes, separate, but similar issues.

Like streaming royalties is for writers and for, like, they have a lot of the same issues, but they're not negotiating together.

Got it.

Okay, so half.

Well, since, okay, so if WGUA was half the strike and they're have attentive deal, I would say like,

we're 25% of the way through.

I'd say like 35, 40.

Okay, well, end is in sight.

Yes, and that means that talk shows are coming back.

So that whole Drew Barrymore, Bill Maher, hoopla, was literally for nothing if they had waited two more weeks.

Or if they just stuck to their guns, then like they would have been doing the right thing anyway.

Right.

I'm happy everyone's getting back to work.

Like, obviously, the people who were striking, but also people who were not in a union, who were severely impacted and like literally not able to work and didn't have a union underneath them to help them.

Right.

So it's kind of been like a terrible thing.

Like, I feel like we've been talking about it a lot, but like, it's really terrible.

It's like people's jobs.

Mm-hmm.

I just, can we all just bake rainbows like we did, bake cakes and make rainbows like we did in middle school?

Unfortunately not.

Did you hear, I thought you were going to pick us a fifth story?

I almost picked it like three times last week, but last week was such good stories that it was like, damn, Costco's selling gold bars.

Yeah, I heard that, but I didn't think that would be story material, especially not for me.

Oh my God, I think it's so crazy.

Why is that crazy?

It's just like what Costco won't sell.

They sell mortgages, they sell TVs, they sell chicken.

Now they're selling gold bars.

Like, it's inspiring the way they never settle.

Why is that crazy?

Because they're not like a bank.

Everything.

No, it's just, it's shocking.

I wasn't shocked by it.

Oh, I was.

Because when I found out that, like, you actually can't anymore, but for a long period of time, you could get a mortgage through Costco.

Yeah.

I was like, oh,

that's shocking.

Yeah.

So for me, like gold bars, like, who even, can you buy, where can you buy a gold bar?

Can you buy one at a bank?

No, I don't think so.

I feel feel like you buy it you know at the gold district underground the gold district yeah like to me it's just like kind of crazy yeah

but I guess not to you no I guess I was already like my Costco

bubble had been popped with the mortgage like now I'm just like anything in this world you can get at Costco yeah like Olivia and her husband never cease to amaze me like his hearing aids because he's partially deaf from Costco they they get gas at Costco I didn't even know you'd get gas at Costco.

They were taking a trip and we need to rent a car and so we were like looking on like Avis and shit.

They're like, let me check Costco.

I'm like, what?

Half the price.

Yeah, no, so really nothing, there's nothing that you could.

Nothing's off limits.

There's nothing that you could say you got at Costco.

Maybe if you told me you got like a pap smear, I'd be shocked.

But I actually, I wouldn't.

I feel like because you can get like glasses at Costco.

I feel like you could probably get your eyes checked.

Like at Lens Crafters, they have like an ophthalmologist.

I feel like they definitely have like an ophthalmologist at Lenscraft.

I mean, at Costco to like give you your prescription.

And that's a hop, skip, and a jump from a pap smear.

Like, Dr.

Kirkland does it all.

100%.

Interesting.

Well, those were the fast side stories.

You definitely needed to know all of them.
