S5 Ep104: The Great Equalizer: Thursday, August 4th, 2022

Good morning, millennials.

Welcome back to the Morning Toast.

Happy Thursday.

Hope everyone's having a great day.

I think you're all having a great day because it's the first Thursday of the month, which means there's a new episode of the Redheads Out.

Redheads is for the early birds.

We drop around 7 a.m.

So I'm sure all of you are already caught up.

And it's a fire flames episode because we read a fireflames book.

That'll do it.

That'll do it.

And I'm just feeling so hashtag proud of my hashtag Passion Project.

hashtag the first thursday of the month greater than the first monday in may

hashtag facts hashtag truth serum

um hope everyone had a wonderful hump day we're on the latter half of the week so congratulations to you and everyone around you

your loved ones friends family colleagues esteemed alumni because even though we're all so different we are all operating on the same day of the week isn't that interesting to think about it's kind of like the great equalizer it's thursday for everyone.

They say that even though some people like don't work a typical Monday through Friday, some people work weekends, some people work like Tuesday to Sunday, you know?

But you're right.

Like some people say that the dead, that death is the great equalizer.

And while I do, I hear that, I hear death and I raise you day of the week.

Day of the week.

We're all just trying to get through a Thursday and we have that in common, if nothing else.

And honestly, suddenly, since you've made that realization, I feel more connected to mankind.

Sorry, womankind.

I feel more connected to womankon too.

Conn?

I can't even say it.

Oh, I do feel connected to womankind today.

Yeah.

And you know what?

You know what else I feel connected to?

Manholes.

Why?

Because, you know, you can't say manhole anymore.

What?

Because it's like a gendered term.

But it's like a negative term, so why do we even want one?

Yeah, no, like give it to the men.

It's gross.

Yeah, have it.

Yeah.

No, that's it.

So what is it called now?

Personhole?

The thing is, I don't know what a manhole is.

It's, you know, this hole in the street.

and the men go down and they fix the sewage system so women you want to do that no you want to do it jackie don't ignore the women who work in sewage like they're strong and powerful people that's true they are strong so maybe for them it's like i'm getting my ass in this all and all this duty only to have the word be manhole you know what i see i see it i stand corrected i see it if that is the case they're making case closed case closed manhole canceled so what is it person hole i don't know maybe just like a new word like

we have human hole, but then it sounds like an orifice.

It sounds like sexual, glory hull.

That's what they should call it.

Let's talk about what you're wearing today.

Your today's Cleveland Day type of sweatshirt.

Yeah, so I'm just in a sweatshirt, stayed in mind, ever since like I popped off with a look on Tuesday with my tracksuit, and I was comfortable and it looked cute.

So now I'm just like cycling through my sweatshirts once again.

And that's the thing about me.

If I like something, I'll do it every day until I die.

And that's why I'm wearing my sweatshirt.

I love this Today's a Cleveland Day sweatshirt.

It was a gift at one of your shows.

And I'm so grateful to have received it.

And I don't even know if I'll need Cleveland Days anymore.

I feel like that's something I can make peace with now that

I'm living in a peaceful environment.

But of course, I'll keep the sweatshirt to remind me of where I came from.

Of course.

But actually, you know what?

I'm sure there are bad days in Florida.

I'm sure there are.

100%.

It's probably just like a different sort of bad day.

That's kind of the great equalizer.

Everyone has bad days.

Yeah.

Everybody makes mistakes.

That's so true, which reminds me of last night's episode of Breaking Bread, which was so much fun.

Thank you to everyone who joined and got with our time change.

Next week, on Wednesday, we're going sticking with the time that we changed to this week because we support mamas, 5 p.m.

Eastern time.

It is the season finale of Breaking Bread.

Yeah, people are upset.

Devastated.

They're, you know, going on strike because forlorn.

They're forlorn, but eight episodes, eighth is next week.

Isn't that crazy?

That really flew by.

It did fly by.

Bruno is mounting mounting Theo right now.

It's a little cousin loving.

You know what I find funny, humorous?

It's like Bruno and Theo, like, can't be bothered with each other.

Like, they're kind of like, they're not like enemies, but they're just not like best friends.

They're kind of rivals.

Yeah.

So, like, they don't fuck with each other.

And now we're recording premium audio and they want to like play and growl.

Like, shut the fuck up, you two.

Okay.

Shut the fuck up.

But they're so damn cute.

So damn cute.

So we apologize for any, you know, sickening audio you guys might be getting.

Also, yesterday,

we

made progress in our journey to

100K YouTube subscribers.

Okay.

And I think it had a lot to do with us singling out the Sarahs.

So today, I think until we reach 100K, we have to single out one name.

And today I'm going to choose because we chose Sarah yesterday.

Please keep it like super common.

Of course.

Biblical.

Of course.

Today, the Rachels.

Okay, by the way, I was literally going to suggest Rachel too.

Rachel, if your name is Rachel, and you listen to YouTube or podcasts.

And you're listening right now and your name is Rachel.

Hi, Rachel.

How are you?

I hope you're having an amazing day.

It's Thursday.

So how bad could it be?

Now that we got that out of the way, please head over to YouTube and subscribe from all of your Gmail accounts.

Yeah, Rachel's yesterday's and the Sarahs showed up and showed out.

Our analytics said 816 new subscribers yesterday.

Like, Sarah's,

check.

Rachels, you're on deck.

And maybe we'll make it a competition.

Like, who, who should win?

Is it going to be the Sarahs, the Rachels, the Rebecca's or the Leia's?

I'm sticking with the biblical theme.

No, but then there are a lot of names.

And it's also funny because you have to think of common names for the toasters.

So it really makes you think of like names people were named back in the 90s because that's really our dog amanda marissa yeah samantha samantha well today we're going with rachel

emily it's like we're not gonna do the avas today because that's a 2020 name and we don't have two-year-olds listening to the show or not not yet not yet some people listen with their moms right so rachels today's your day show yourself you want you want to get organized you want to get on youtube make a gmail if you don't have one already and subscribe to this motherfucking show okay thank you rachel they do love you.

Wait.

Thanks a lot, Rachel.

Thanks a lot.

Totally.

My charge is not charging to my iPad.

It's got to your iPad instead of mine.

I hope you're happy because I've told mom.

That girl's iconic.

Iconic.

And everyone like pretends to be her.

Oh, I was just going to say, like, there's a thing on TikTok where people cosplay being like, remember this viral video from 15 years ago?

And it's like, Charlie bit my finger.

It's like all these classic ones that we grew up with.

And they're like, that's me.

I'll grow it up.

Like, no, it's not.

I don't think it's them cosplaying.

I think it's them fucking lying.

You know, trying to get be deceptive and get like followers.

Yeah, because everybody's looking for, you know, that moment Irish camper who went off on Rachel for using her chaja.

And

when you say, like, this was me, I'm like, oh, I'm interested in you, but not if you're a liar.

Yeah.

People are also constantly looking for, I'm in my mom's car.

Vroom, vroom.

Get out in my car.

So there's a lot of iconic internet celebrities out there.

Just be careful who you follow.

Like, don't, don't get tricked.

No.

Do not.

Don't do it.

So it's Thursday.

We've got a great show.

Um

usually, what would we recap today?

Oh, Beverly Hills.

I'm so behind.

So behind, but I did get my TV installed in my bedroom today.

So we're one step closer, but I'm just loving reading.

And I have read now, I think it's four or five five star books in a row.

So I am on a roll.

It started with Tom Segura.

Then I went to Hotel Nantucket, then A Flicker in the Dark, and then Carrie White Uppercut.

I finished it last night.

And the whole time I was reading, I was like, this is really good, but it's going to to be four stars for me because it's kind of hard.

It's not like my personal favorite era.

And that's just on me.

But then by the end, I was like, this was a fucking fantastic memoir.

It is a five-star memoir.

And if you're,

are you okay?

I know it's like really boring.

Wait, what are you doing?

I'm so bored.

Okay, like I told you before the show, like I'm having stomach issues.

So if you could just like let me be silent in peace and not like call me out, I'm happy for you.

Like keep going.

I said, I love that.

What's wrong with that?

And I also found out that's how you, that's like what's going on in the inside.

They're making, and I told you this part last night, they're making a movie out of her book.

That's how good it is.

And Julia Fox is playing Carrie White.

Cute.

I'm like over Julia Fox completely.

I was never under her, honestly.

Yeah, no, you were never.

But if she wants to do a great job in a movie, I support that.

100%.

But the fact that Julia Fox is cast in it makes me think it's like an indie like student film.

You know what I mean?

Like not a big budget Hollywood moment.

i don't know i feel like she's becoming well she hasn't done anything since kanye yet but she was up for the madonna

like that's what we heard yeah i don't know if that was like actually forgot the part julia gardner

darn yeah um

no she hasn't really done much and is she an actress i thought she was like an artist

I think her umbrella of art covers a lot of categories, including actress.

She was in the Unca Gems.

Right.

No, actually, I can relate to that, like being an artist with many talents, you know?

That realized me and Julia have that in common.

Someone Someone being like, is she a podcaster?

I thought she was a comedian.

Oh, is she a podcaster?

I thought she was an author.

Yeah.

Oh, is she a comedian?

I thought she was a singer.

Right.

She is.

All of the above.

So the book was great.

If you're into a celebrity memoir, I actually highly recommend it.

And then next I'm going to read, I think, every summer after because I haven't read it yet.

Enjoy.

Enjoy.

I can't wait.

And I'm excited to read like a short, sweet book, not one that takes me like so many days to finish.

No, yeah, no.

It's like fun and light and like it sticks with you.

I'm like obsessed with it.

I always think about it.

Also, ever since I've designated my pumping time to be my reading time, that's like

four times a day, 30 minutes a day.

That's like good reading time.

And now I'm getting through books and I'm really happy about that.

I cannot believe we've been sitting here for nine minutes without mentioning the fact that like last night we broke the internet.

Oh my God.

I cannot believe like we should start this.

I was like going through my night and so I was going from reading and I, but we should start over.

Scratch that.

Three, two, one.

Good morning, millennials.

Welcome back.

Theo and Bruno, shut the fuck up.

Seriously.

Like, you're both bothering me.

We're doing a fucking work.

Thank you, Bruno.

Come to your mommy.

Okay.

So let's talk about last night.

Yeah.

Last night I'm sitting on the couch.

We just ate dinner.

You just left Olivia's house.

I'm sitting on the couch, like scrolling Instagram, and I get a notification.

Emily Jackson is live with Rach Parcel.

I'm like, oh my God, let me see what my favorite girlies are up to.

I just joined.

I didn't comment or anything because like I was being a stalker.

I was like lurking like a freak.

You were a lay person.

Yeah.

And then Emily was in LA with Amy and Amy was like, like, oh my God, girl with no job joined.

I'm like, oh my god, fuck, how do they know?

Like, I was really just trying to lurk.

But I guess like when you have so many followers, it just comes up as a notification.

So they invited me up on the live.

I was on the live with Emily, Amy, and Rach Parcel.

And it was honestly like overwhelming.

I felt like

there was too many things on my mind for me to even like.

I wanted to like ask them so many questions, but then also like be funny and like, it's hard.

It was so hard.

It was honestly like doing a show.

Like I felt exhausted afterwards.

I went to bed right after.

And then I made Olivia call Jackie and tell her to get her ass on instagram live then jackie joined the live rach had to leave in order to make space for jackie like which was particularly sad but rach stayed on the whole time like commenting and like being a part of the conversation um and it was really kind of the best night of my life can't lie i feel so close to the sister scala now yeah and i'm just obsessed i'm just obsessed and i can't wait to have them on the toast whenever like it all works out we're in utah they're in florida we're in new york whatever it is i can't wait um it was just a joy and they say like never go live with your heroes They do say that.

But they're lying.

They're 100% lying.

And

we like, I think we're successful in convincing Sister Scala to start a podcast.

At TNN.

Right.

Which A, like, you know, is a win for the podcasting industry.

And obviously it's like a win for us.

But I think it's also a win for humanity because a sister Scala podcast sounds amazing.

You know who it's a win for?

Beautiful women.

Womankind.

I like how you did that.

No, it's it's a win for women who are actually beautiful.

Women who shouldn't have put those shoes back on the rack because they were unqualified to do so.

Yeah, that was special.

That was special.

So I'm just kind of like riding that high ever since then.

Yeah.

It's hard to like come on the show and do the show, like knowing that like last night we were live with the sister Scala and it's like.

now we're just here with each other.

Yeah, no, like

yeah, like it's just, it's just not the same.

It's not like, it's not doing it for me, if I'm being completely honest.

It's the same as like when we're talking live with

Emily Rach in the comments.

No, I know.

It was,

yeah, so this is great.

Having so much fun here.

Love the show.

There's nowhere else I'd rather be.

Should we call them?

Literally.

We got their phone numbers.

Like, we're literally not okay.

But you know what's nice?

And this is how I felt like with Shannon Ford.

Like when you meet someone that like you like are obsessed with, but there's like a mutual obsession.

Like with Shannon, I feel like I held back at first because like the way I became like weirdly instantly like in love with Shannon, like everything she did, I was like, oh, swipe up, where's that from?

Like I was being a freak.

But then when she came on the podcast, she's like, no, you don't understand.

Like, don't hold back because like I feel the same way.

So there was comfort in knowing like we were like-minded, you know?

Yeah.

And with Sister Scala, I really do believe like there was a mutual adoration and obsession with one another, which makes me feel like a little bit better.

Yeah, no, definitely.

But do you ever feel like you get really obsessed with an influencer sometimes?

And then like five minutes later, you don't care?

Yeah.

Yeah.

And we've been so obsessed with Rach and the gals for so long and it never falters.

It only gets stronger.

100%.

It's like a, it's like a.

Do you know what I'm going to say?

It's like a good fart.

It strengthens and lingers.

Rach would hate that.

Rach would hate that.

Yeah.

Actually, I don't know.

Now that I follow Rach on TikTok, like.

I heard Rach is doing things on TikTok.

I like really feel like I know her better.

Like she's kind of crazy.

What does she do?

She's just like not what you think.

Cause like you see her feet.

And I think what you know about her, if you're not like a rach stan like us, is like she's really polished.

Like her life looks perfect, but she's like really not like that.

She's like hysterical and she's also like kind of whack.

Like I'm just that's I think like what the initial draw was obviously like the beauty of like all their houses and like their outfits and everything.

But I think the real why we stay is like there's chaotic energy there for sure.

Oh, I love that.

But I also love the sisterhood.

Yeah, of course.

Like I feel like they're just as close as us.

They all work together and like have the same sort of thing going on, which you don't see so often.

Yeah.

And then like before you got there, we were discussing like who's the who, you know?

Of our, like, us.

Of our family compared to them.

Okay.

And like, just in like age order, you're the rach on the meg.

But obviously I said like, I feel definitely like a rage, you know?

Yeah, I feel like I'm an Emily.

I feel like you're an Emily too, just because like you really have your shit together.

Yeah, but so does Rach.

Yeah, that's true.

That's true.

But like, I just, I don't know.

But no matter how you slice it, Amy is the snitch.

Amy is the snitch.

And to be honest, like, I don't think there's like a bad sister, you know, to choose.

It's like, not like, oh, nobody wants to be like the Emily.

Like nobody feels that way.

Like, I would be happy with anyone, honestly.

Me too.

Yeah, but snitch vibes.

100%.

100%.

So that was what we did last night.

Just like we're big fat losers on Instagram.

And that's good because that is what we are.

So at least we're consistent.

Embrace it.

Embrace.

As they say, live your truth.

Truths were lived.

Truths are meant to be lived.

That is such a good point.

Canva Pro.

We've got a great show for you guys today.

Five, well, how would you describe the stories?

I would describe them as interesting, nothing too big or too small.

I would say five equal stories of interest and will spark interesting dialogue.

I am constantly looking for stories that are sparking interesting dialogue.

So I believe without further ado.

Without further ado.

Oh, wait, sorry.

No, sorry.

So tomorrow's Friday, general on sale for my shows.

We've got, okay, just listen.

I know everyone's getting sick and tired.

Pre-sale went like amazing.

So I'm like kind of quaking for people who weren't a part of the presale.

Are there still meet and greets left?

Oh, no.

There's like barely seats left, you know?

I mean, that's like a good problem.

Of course, no, I'm not complaining, but like, I could see people being like, it's not fair.

And it's not fair.

But you know what else isn't fair?

Life.

So we've got Birmingham.

There's about two seats left.

We have Charlotte.

We have Durham, North Carolina, Huntington, Long Island, Portland, Oregon, Seattle, Washington, West Hampton, New York, Red Bank, New Jersey,

New Haven, Connecticut.

I think it's like 11 or 12 shows going for sale tomorrow.

Pre-sale was yesterday.

Thank you to all the patrons who got what they needed to get.

Tomorrow, 10 a.m.

local time, you can check my Instagram and website for all the information.

These are the last shows of this tour of this year.

This material will die afterwards.

Don't let it.

Don't let it because.

Did you go to Utah?

No, I know.

There's like...

How are the scholasts supposed to see it?

No, that's fair, but like there are about seven Salt Lake City toasters.

And four of them are the scholars.

Right.

So

I just don't think like I'd end up losing money on my flights, you know?

Yeah.

Okay, fine.

Yeah.

Maybe if they're like, if the Utah toasters, like if there are more of them, they want to kind of unionize and make themselves known.

Cause like I basically people are like, how do you choose like what cities?

Like the data?

I'm like, no, I literally looked at my messages and like, I get a vibe of where I need to go.

And like, I was right.

Like Nashville tickets sold amazing.

Charlotte tickets sold amazing.

Like, I know.

So either there are no toasters in Utah or they haven't like galvanized yet got it okay galvanize do it organize competition because I would love to go to Utah same

and accompany Claudia on the end any excuse any excuse to go to Utah okay so now without further ado to do to do here are the fast five stories that you need to know before you wake up and take a bite out of your morning toast

Great.

Thank you so much.

You're welcome.

What can I say except you're welcome?

welcome okay our first story adele and rich paul have moved in together and daily mail has all of the financial details that you need to do daily mail is saying this is daily mail no wonder adele needs to make her vegas gig work the singer has taken out a huge 38 million dollar mortgage on her new 58 million dollar la home she'll share with which with rich paul saddling her with monthly payments of more than two hundred thousand dollars a month jesus but she'll soon be earning a million dollars a night in vegas you know what I find so interesting?

And I feel like I come back to this a lot.

Do you remember like years ago when Chrissy Teigen did a Q ⁇ A on Twitter?

Like, what are like logistics of fame that you guys are curious about?

And somebody had asked her about like mortgages.

And I just assumed like if a celebrity bought a $58 million house, like she just put down $58 million.

Right.

Like Adele is worth $183 million.

So she could buy a house outright with that money.

Right.

So, but then Chrissy Teigen was like, no, actually, like the same way like a lay person would get a mortgage, we do it too.

But obviously the numbers are just higher.

And I just had never really thought that like celebrities got mortgages.

So I found that interesting.

And now that I know that, this doesn't surprise me that much.

But at first, when I read this headline, like Daily Mail is making me like worried over Adele's finances because $200,000 a month is a lot because it's the property taxes plus the mortgage payments plus interest rates are now at 5%.

But they do have this panel in the article called Why the Mega Rich Take Out a Home Loan Rather Than Pay Outright.

And basically

the investor feels that what they are paying on the mortgage is less than what they can do with that money by investing.

Right, right, right.

So by her keeping on, hold on that 38 38 million million, she'll put it to work for herself.

You know, rich people like never use their own money.

Yeah.

It's so into rissant.

Got to start doing that.

Also sick of using my own money.

It's like it's enough already.

It's disgusting.

It's just so unnecessary.

The house that she bought was bought from Sylvester Stallone and he initially listed it for $110 million, dropped it to $50 million.

Oh, she had a deal.

Dropped it to $85 million and then dropped it to $58 million.

It's huge.

And the backyard is just like everything

you're ever hoping to see on an episode of The Kardashian.

And like, it's really cool, but like, it's literally a house for three people.

Like, no, rich.

Does rich have kids?

Not that I know of, but her kids.

So it's a huge house.

It's like, obviously, I'm jealous, so that's why I'm saying this, but like, it seems like a little, like a lot, you know?

A lot.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Like a little overboard.

But you know what?

Like, I can't lie.

If that was me, like, and I had three people living in my house, me, Ben, and Theo, like, I'd get a house bigger.

Like, that's.

Bigger with a bigger yard for Theo.

Yeah.

So

I find the intricacies of like being rich and famous really interesting.

And it's just cool.

You know, no one else is a great equalizer.

Mortgages.

So how many shows is she doing in Vegas?

I thought it was like a weekend.

Is it like an official residency?

It's not an official residency like, you know,

Wayne Newton.

Right.

But it's more than Travis Scott.

Got it.

Got it.

They're just calling everything a residency these days.

So it's hard to know like who's Donnie and Marie

and who's, you know, Kelly Clarkson scheduling five shows and never doing them because of covet yeah we'll never we're not still upset like we won't forget and we're not upset you know like i never got my money back from ticketmaster but like we are not upset yeah i'll never get back like the excitement that went forth towards it you know all of the memories i was gonna make i'll never get those back or my delta uh

flight right because that was before that was before covet like officially started so they were like not being generous yet no and like everything is just credit and it's like well i don't want to fly your disgusting airline anyway so what do i do with this credit right so give me my money back once and then the credits expire in two years i'm like are you gonna make it better in two years right what what will be different in two years will there even be a flight for me to book not to make you know adele's new house about us but even if there is a flight for me to book for somewhere to go are you gonna cancel it and then i have another credit right no the credits it's a vicious cycle it's a vicious cycle like do better

educate yourselves these airlines are honestly like an embarrassment

they're an embarrassment to the country i completely agree and And they're so uneducated.

100%.

Also, we didn't talk about Spirit Airlines and JetBlue merging.

So, I mean, it feels like loser on loser merge.

No, it's not.

I watched GPG's episode of The Toast, where he explained that this is good for the customer.

I said the same thing to Brian.

I'm like, what, who cares if two losery ass companies like get together to congratulate loser conglomerate?

And he was like, it's not like that at all.

Like, you have to understand why JetBlue sucks.

is because like they're not a big enough company yet to have this whole fleet of airlines.

And that only happens when you get acquired or you merge with someone.

So when he explained it, I was like, oh, I'm actually really here.

He said it'll make Spirit better and JetBlue better.

So I was like, oh, maybe I am here for this merger.

I'm here for what he explained, but I'm extremely trepidatious because nothing in the airline industry is getting better.

Right.

You know, things are only getting worse.

Maybe things have to happen

before they get better.

And if you guys are interested at all in like travel, listen to the most recent episode of The Morning Toast with Brian Kelly when he filled in for Jackie one day, like a couple of weeks ago.

It was really eye-opening because at first I was like, literally loser on loser crime, who fucking cares?

And he was like, You should.

Yeah.

And I just assume like whatever is moderately good about JetBlue will be like taken down by Spirit.

Um,

but it sounds like, no, so I'm optimistic, sure.

But it's like, if Delta can't get its shit together, United American, like, why are these two losers?

There's no hope for the ones to save us.

Right, right, right.

However, Spirit Airlines could be the ones to save us.

We love an underdog story.

Like, maybe, maybe this is how it all ends.

Here's the thing.

I want nothing more.

I know.

I want nothing more for someone to come in and show the airline industry how it should be done

but i'm a realist yeah fortunately no and that's my cross to bear it's super important to be based in reality i really believe that yeah but you i mean yeah it is but there's also it's important for some people out there to be idealists that's how you know dreams get accomplished look at elon no that's true but i don't think like elon is a what'd you call him an idealist idealist no because like elon is like smart and like in like in science like you have to be the best you can't just have like big dreams you know you just have to be like practical It's merit-based.

Yes.

Whereas, like, yes, okay, Hollywood.

Like, not everyone in Hollywood right now is the greatest actors and actresses of all time.

They're just like the ones who got lucky, you know?

It's not necessarily merit-based.

Yeah.

Yeah.

That's something else.

Right.

Other than being real.

But sure.

Yeah.

Agreed.

Are you ready for our next story, which is something that we talked about on Breaking Bread last night?

That was so much fun that we actually need to talk about it on the show, too.

Selena and Chef.

Selena and Chef season four is dropping.

And where was this season filmed?

The house from Hannah Montana season four in malibu also known as hannah montana forever hannah montana forever's house that's gorgeous beachfront that if you see a picture of the house you can hear the house say oh

yeah

yeah

yeah yeah

yeah yeah wait the house was also previously uh featured on HBO's Big Little Lies as the home of Rhys Witherspoon's character.

Wait, why should I miss her?

Probably because that show was like filmed in a different, like in a filter.

But but also like let's be real on Hannah Montana, they never showed the house, they had the one still image that they used every single time, like from the outside, like and a little bit to the side.

So, I don't think we actually even know what that house really looks like, but we'll know on Selena and Chef.

Yeah, oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, what an iconic house.

Adele should have bought that house.

And what about the house that she grew up in, the regular house on the beach?

The first one, the first one, yeah.

Did that house ever get famous?

That felt like a set because they would only really, hold on.

No, they did the same exact thing as they did with the mountain.

They did a zoom out because I feel like they always showed the porch.

No, they would show the back of the house, like with the beach.

Okay.

She always lived on the beach.

Yeah, no, she was a spoiled brat.

And she was extremely privileged.

And she, like, it's literally like Nepo baby, nepotism at its finest.

Her dad was Billy Ray Stewart.

She was also like working in the bread earner in her family, the breadwinner.

Not really.

Like, she

was working and making money but like she came from an extreme not us literally canceling anna mantana she came from like an extremely privileged background like she wouldn't have gotten the opportunities that she got if it weren't for her dad billy ray stewart um

and it just makes you think you know about nepotism you know she's definitely a nepo baby but not without talent i think that's just what you were saying like it's definitely luck alone a little bit of merit yeah

and i'm not saying that she's not good i'm just saying like what about you know all the doors that were opened opened for her?

Yeah.

And doors that weren't open for others.

Again, I think that's kind of a conversation, a piece of the conversation that's missing when dissecting Hannah Montana, how she should be canceled right now.

And kind of, you know what?

Let me take it even further.

Miley's Harris in general, because it was based on truth.

You know, her dad is Billy Ray.

I guess I'm confused.

His Bobby, Bobby Ray.

Doors open for Miley and her brother Trace.

And the sister.

Right.

And I just think, you know, nepotism is disgusting.

Damn.

No, I say it all the time.

Like when actually, when it comes to nepotism, like I don't have a, I don't have a blanket feeling about nepotism, whether it's like good or bad.

I don't care.

It's like, tell me who we're talking about and I'll tell you if I don't like nepotism.

But I'll tell you why that is for you, because whoever we're talking about, it's like, do they have talent?

Are they worthy?

You know, or are they just where they are because of right?

Let's throw out some popular nepotism.

Well, people are talking about this now because Haley Bieber and Gwyneth Paltrow did a YouTube video together where like, Haley was just basically like, what do you say to that?

Because like, like, I get it all the time too.

And Gwyneth was like, I mean, I, it was just a classic answer.

She was, and Gwyneth is a queen.

Like Gwyneth could literally fart in my mouth and I'd be like, genius.

She said, you know, of course we have to acknowledge like you, doors open for you, much bigger and faster.

the access you get is very real and then once you get in the door like you have to work 10 times harder than everyone else like to prove yourself and everyone like rolled their eyes but that's what she said and haley was like no i totally agree i

do agree with that i think yeah doors open but then like once you're in the door like you need to perform.

Yeah.

And for real, like, for someone like Gwyneth, like, she is talented.

She's Gwyneth because of her.

Like, yes, maybe the first role or maybe she had an easier time getting to where she is, but like she's there.

She won an Oscar.

Like, I agree.

Gwyneth is like

talented, but I just think, like, I think a good example is Dakota Johnson.

Like, how she became the face of a billion-dollar movie franchise without ever having acted in her motherfucking life.

Like, I had never heard of her until she got cast in 50 Shades.

And I happen to really like Dakota Johnson.

Like, i think she's hilarious i i actually like a lot of her work but like by no means is the career that she has like is she even remotely deserving of

like that's just and that's on being honest you know

yeah and it but it doesn't bother me like some of it still like some people's like irks me dakota doesn't bother me because honestly she's funny and like i just i like her oh that's you ever see the vogue you like her do you ever see the vogue thing about the limes no so she did 73 questions and they like go into her kitchen and she's like playing with like this bowl of limes And she's like, I just love limes.

Like they're my favorite.

Like I just love them.

And it was like such a random thing to say.

And then like it came out a few years later.

Like she's actually allergic to limes.

And they were like, she was like, I was just trying to be sarcastic because like they put this fake bowl of limes.

Like they set, they staged my kitchen and it was so fucking weird.

So I was like, I love limes.

It's so funny.

You know, she's funny.

Like I'm telling you, she has like a really good personality.

And so I actually really like her, but her career is like beyond for someone who has like no experience.

Yeah.

And that's on just the truth.

truth.

Like I feel that.

Yeah.

Anyways, back to Selena and Chef.

Back to canceling Hannah Montana.

Back to canceling Hannah.

I'm glad that the house is like getting recognition and that Selena, I think we should watch her show since we're obsessed with her.

Also, she was spotted on a yacht like with a man.

Oh, let's talk about that.

Does she have a man's?

You sent me a picture, paparazzi pics, Italy jumping off a boat, like so typical celeb

with this man who honestly like wasn't that cute, but he was like handsome enough.

And he's a film producer.

And

they looked to be like romantically like linked.

Yeah.

It's not what I, it's not what I expected for Selena, honestly.

I'm happy for her though.

And part of me is like, oh, I wish it was, you know, someone we knew and like we could get excited, but that's literally what we said, like she should have businessman bow.

And that's really the only downside to a businessman bow is like, we can't get excited.

No, to be honest, like.

the selection I'm fine with.

Like, I'm just like a deeply shallow and superficial person.

Like, Selena is like top 10 most beautiful women in in Hollywood.

And, like, I just didn't think the guy was that cute.

But I'm just like a shallow person.

Like, maybe he has an amazing personality.

Like, maybe he's kind, generous, caring, loyal, funny.

But I don't know that.

All I know is a picture that I saw where I didn't think he was that cute.

Okay, I'm looking.

There's literally looks like so European.

You can't even see a picture of his face.

Wait, no, tap his Instagram.

And then

the picture tagged his Instagram.

What's his name?

Tell us his name.

Andrea.

Andrea, what?

Irvolino.

So Italian.

Maybe it's not like it.

Like, I think he's so cute.

I think he's cute.

But, like, not the cover of Forbes.

No, it's good.

Italy.

But this is everything you could want for her.

Yeah, no, it's good.

It's good.

It's just like, I wish he was like a little cuter.

Like, I don't think that's so crazy to say.

Not the pope.

The pope.

Is Selena Catholic?

Because that would mean a lot to her.

Yeah, I'm sure it was that picture.

I know this is like a really obvious statement.

Like, the Pope is such a big deal.

On the left.

That's handsome.

Oh, that's a cute picture.

Yeah, the picture I saw.

That's an old picture.

The Pope is is a big deal.

Yeah, the Pope is such a big deal.

Like, people, like, cry.

Like, if you met the Pope, like, would you care?

Because we're like not Catholic.

Oh, I mean,

sitting here right now, I could be like, no, I don't really care to meet the Pope.

But if I'm German, like, if I'm at the Vatican, I'm in Rome, and you know, all the history and this and that, and like, and I had the opportunity to meet the Pope.

And like, I know so many other people would want that opportunity.

Like, I would

think, you know, it was a big deal.

If I had the opportunity to meet the Pope, like, I wouldn't take it because like, like,

I'm not deserving.

I would give it to, like, a Catholic toaster, you know?

Yeah, yeah.

No, if, like, if I knew ahead of time I had this opportunity, I would give it to someone else.

But, like, you know, if I was just having dinner in Rome and like the Pope was next to me, right, which I think happens all the time.

He liked my purse and he started talking to me.

Right.

I think I would be like, wow, that's

cool.

Those like few weeks, a couple of years ago, where the Vatican was trying to figure out who went on the Pope's Instagram and liked that OnlyFans models bikini picture.

That was like some of the best time of my life.

I just think like nothing will ever break.

It gives like Suez Canal vibes.

Like that story was so funny.

And of course we never got down to the bottom of it because people just moved on, but I still think about it and I still like, it keeps me up.

Who liked the photo?

It was obviously the Pope.

Yeah.

Even though it obviously wasn't the Pope because he definitely doesn't run his own Instagram or like care to be.

He definitely has a Finsta.

Right.

It was some like, you know, low-level archbishop who is like young and was tasked with running the social media and Horny, of course.

Yeah.

I mean, wouldn't you be?

It was the low-level archbishop for sure.

For sure.

It was definitely not Archduke Franz Ferdinand.

No, it was not Pope Francis.

No, no, no.

What's the Pope's name?

Francis.

This one?

I think so.

I can never keep up with the popes.

Pope Francis, yeah.

They've elected a new pope.

I love that line from Euro trip.

Oh, that's kind of fun.

It makes me laugh.

I posted it on my Instagram one time when like Ben was barbecuing and there was like smoke coming out of the grill and I was like, they've elected a new pope.

It's really not funny, Claudia.

Like, actually, no, it's literally hilarious.

Yeah.

How many popes have we lived through?

How many presidents have we lived through?

I was a Clinton girly, right?

Yeah.

I was born in November at the end of HW.

So.

Oh my God, you're so old.

HW.

Two more months before Clinton took office.

Oh my God.

Wait.

No, no, I'm sorry.

Yeah.

Yeah.

HW.

Wait, that's like so crazy.

Because 1982 is an election year, right?

Yeah.

Oh my God.

That's like the craziest thing I've ever heard.

Yeah, no, and like he might have already been like, Phil Clinton might have won the election already, but he still had like two months till January.

No, like you were born in the HW.

Like that is like not to be ageists.

Like you're fucking like old.

You might as well have said like you were born in like Gerald Ford.

Like that's crazy.

Because to me, like maybe it's because I was born then, but like the current slash like recent presidents, like start with Clinton.

Yeah, no, I, and I'm a Clinton baby for sure.

Yeah, but there's a little HW in there.

Damn, that's so crazy.

Olivia is like a whole year of age.

Oh, she's like a Reagan girly.

It's giving Reagan energy.

Oh my God.

Have you seen this Monica Lewinsky Beyonce thing?

Oh, no.

What?

Okay, so also there's a Beyonce Kim thing.

Did you say?

No, okay.

It's not a big thing, but you know how Beyonce is now out here changing her lyrics and stuff.

And so Monica Lewinsky tweeted, like, and what about, you know, let me find her exact words.

Beyonce has a lyric about Monica Lewinsky on the new album or a previous one?

A previous one,

like Lewinskied all over the dress in partition.

Ooh.

And so she tweeted.

That's very feminist of her.

She tweeted Monica Lewinsky

about the story that

Beyonce changed the lyric while we're at it, dot, dot, dot, hashtag partition.

Okay, I mean, she's not wrong.

Like, that is, like, really mean, especially, like, I, not just, but like, I recently watched

Impeachment and it was so good.

And like, it does make you feel bad for Monica.

Um,

so it's not very like women lifting up other women energy from Beyonce, but like part of the reason, like, I love Beyonce is like, she doesn't give a fuck.

Like, oh, I upset Monica Lewinsky.

Okay.

But there is a lyric going around that people think is about Kim.

Did you see this?

No, not yet, but let me finish the story.

People then were quick to like be like, Monica Lewinsky has been like out here for years, no, being like, i'm in rap songs i've inspired like all of these things and then she's like no that was like my way of coping with it oh please also she said like it should be like bill clinton all over the all over the gown

um

and it just is interesting but what i was gonna say was i didn't watch impeachment so maybe i just

didn't you know have this experience yet but i do feel like impeachment was meant to like be justice for monica lewinsky the show and maybe for the people who watched it they now like feel more warmly towards her but it wasn't this like universal thing of like, she's still just like Monica Lewinsky, you know?

Wait, sorry, say that again?

I feel like the show was like,

should have transformed like the narrative.

It should have been like this whole big conversation.

And like, justice for Monica Lewinsky.

And now she'll be like on the cover of Vogue and like all of these things.

The show, I don't think, was that popular, but that was the intended goal.

For the 10 viewers.

And after watching it, I definitely was like, oh my God.

Literally, like Bill Clinton is an animal disgusting.

She is like an innocent girl who like got carried away.

And like, honestly, like, if I was an intern and like the president wanted to fuck, I'd be like, okay, like, you know what I mean?

Like, she was very

easily influenced by him.

Like, he was literally disgusting.

And like,

yeah, no, you definitely walk away from the show being like, wait, Justice Rononica Lewinsky.

And then it's not even, it's, of course, everything that went on with Bill, but then it was like everything that went on afterwards, like literally just being like labeled like the nationwide whore.

Like, and like everyone knowing details, like the cigar on the dress, like it's like so embarrassing for her.

Yeah.

And so I thought that the show would like totally revolutionize.

And I'm sure for the people that watched it, it changed how they thought about her, but it wasn't like this nationwide.

No, by the way, there was like a change in the conversation for all of 30 seconds.

But again, the show wasn't that popular that it didn't like change the narrative completely.

But I'm sure she's really happy with it because I think she would say that's like an extremely accurate retelling of my story.

She was like a part of the production team and stuff.

Got it.

But there's also a Beyonce Lyric that people are saying is about Kim.

And like, it's honestly really upsetting me because it totally is about Kim.

Here's the TikTok that plays it ready.

Uncle Johnny

Uncle Johnny made my dress that cheap spandex.

She looks a mess.

Who's Uncle Johnny?

I think it's like a designer.

Like Uncle Johnny made Beyonce's dress like sickening.

She wears spandex cheap looking mess.

Like that's Skims is like Spandex.

Wow.

So it appears as though like the Kim and Beyonce of it all never make sense to me because like everything would lead me to believe that like they don't get along with each other.

Like Beyonce doesn't with them but beyonce is like always sending ivy park pr packages kim is always supporting those packages so i don't know you know how beyonce does that birthday thing on her website like whenever it's a celebrity's birthday she does it for all the kardashians like

i don't think it's about kim i think it could be about like literally anyone wearing cheap spandex looking the mess right and i think people just assume that and that's kim's influence like when you're talking about spandex you're talking about kim because like she invented that whole like look but everyone wears it now yeah i don't think it's about kim either i don't think so at all i think spandex is a very popular material.

And it just

also looked cheap.

Some whore Beyoncé was like mad at who was probably wearing Spandex.

Yeah.

Or, you know, whoever wrote the song with her.

That's what I always have to remember.

Like sometimes I'm listening to a song and I'm like, wait, this artist feels this way about his wife.

And it's like, no,

I don't know.

And I was actually thinking about Luke Combs.

That's so funny.

It's like someone else wrote it and they collaborated and it's like not that deep.

Well, that's true.

I don't know if that's the case.

I think that's the Beyonce it is that deep.

Yeah, no, I think Beyonce like is combing over every single one of of her lyrics.

Like it's her

personal experience.

Actually, like that's another story you see.

Diane, what's that

songwriter's name with like the Chris Jenner hair?

Diane Warren?

Yeah.

She like, she's in trouble.

She's getting canceled.

What'd she do?

She was like, can someone explain to me on Twitter?

And I think she meant it in like an extremely genuine, not snobby kind of way.

Okay.

Can someone explain to me how it takes 24 songwriters to write a Beyonce song?

Because I guess one of Beyonce's songs from her most recent album has 24 songwriters on it.

And people were blowing her up.

And the reason why it has 24 songwriters on it is because Beyonce sampled a bunch of music, therefore making the people whose music that was songwriters on the song.

Okay, cool.

And did someone just explain how to do it?

Yeah, no, no, and she was like genuine.

She was, I really believe, I don't think she's like a malicious person.

I think she was genuinely asking.

And she learned real quick, real quick, what the answer was.

Okay, well, at least there's like an answer.

Yeah.

Now I know.

But I do agree with you.

Like, I think sometimes when people like dissect certain celebrities' music, they need to like just remember like most celebrities do not write, not celebrities, most musicians do not write their own music.

If they're like mega pop stars like Ariana Grande, like you always hear like

samples of No Tears Left to Cry or God is a Woman.

Like, oh, here's Camilla Cabellos.

It was almost her song.

Like certain songs just get passed around.

Also,

have you been, I'm sure you don't.

There's like a leaked Addison Ray song.

Okay.

Um, that she was never released, that never released, but like somebody leaked it on TikTok and it's so good.

My nails to die for my hair to die for it's called to die for it's so cute and then there's like this um

now like more leaked music of addison's is coming out and she recorded this song it's a lady gaga song that lady gaga like tried to use a bunch of different times like in art pop and it just never worked for her and um addison recorded it it sounds so good it's called like you know nothing but the radio or something and literally like addison ray needs to release it i'm telling you addison raid's like the face of the music industry my legs to die for Why won't she release it?

I don't know.

She doesn't even acknowledge the fact that all this music is leaked.

Right, and it's on TikTok, which is like her domain.

It's so good.

Addison, come on.

Give us something.

Where have you been?

Yeah, like Obsessed is so good.

So good.

It's going to be Addison Ray is one of those musical artists who's not appreciated in her own time.

No, and movie star.

100%.

Movie star.

Our next story, Days of Our Lives is moving to Peacock after nearly six decades on NBC.

You guys, this is a changing of the guards.

Days of Our Lives has found a new home at Peacock.

On Wednesday, NBC announced its long-running soap opera will be moving to its digital-owned platform after airing the show for nearly six decades.

It makes me sad.

Yeah.

It's like

truly the end of an era.

Or just like end the show.

I mean, people love it, though, so why can't it stay on NBC?

Like the people who watch it don't want Peacock.

I just don't know like what's going on with like cable.

They don't know what's going on either.

Like I saw the dumbest Jimmy Fallon video on TikTok today that obviously performed well on TikTok, but it was like him and Jane Fonda doing like a song and music for me.

Oh my god, I saw it too and it made me upset.

I'm done with Coastal Grandma.

It was all about Coastal Grandma, which is like, what the fuck do people who watch the tonight show on cable know about Coastal Grandma?

Like it was just like really kind of indicative of like this,

like,

I don't even know what the phrase is.

Like it was, it's indicative of like how cable networks like just miss the mark on everything.

It was so cringy.

Yeah, no, and they've ruined Coastal Grandmother.

They really thought they were like doing something.

It made me upset.

Yeah, it was cringy as fuck.

And I'm sure Jane Fonda was like, What the fuck is this?

Like, she's probably been going on the tonight show for like 75 years.

And she's like, oh, I remember when it used to be a normal talk show where we would just like sit and talk.

Yeah.

It was so weird.

Yeah.

Sorry, what was the story?

Oh, they're moving.

I mean, I feel like that's definitely like at the end of an era.

I've never been a soap opera girly, but I also like don't understand Peacock.

Why?

Like, I just feel

like it's

like this wasteland of NBC and their like affiliate shows.

It's like a, it's for shows on their way up and on their way down, I think.

Like it's also an emerging platform.

And it's also now they have Love Island US.

Yes.

And

it is kind of random.

And it's also random when places are like, okay, we have our cable network and then we have like our bonus content.

It's like the morning journal and Patreon.

But I actually like Peacock.

I just feel like this is kind of sad because the people who watch Days of Our Lives don't want your fucking peacock.

No, and like Days of Our Lives and the soap operas air at such a unique time.

Like, it's not like they're competing for a daytime three o'clock slot.

Like, just leave it.

Yeah, they're going to place the NBC News Daily in that slot now.

Oh, great.

Can't wait to watch.

Yeah.

Like, this is dumb, honestly.

The cable is just like so

lame to me.

Lame.

It's giving lame energy.

Yeah.

Our next story the least lame person jennifer coolidge is saying is talking about all the action she got after playing stiffler's mom oh she says i slept with 200 people thanks to the american pie milf role wow so while jennifer coolidge is also known for her role in league league blonde and most recently in white lotus the 60-year-old told variety that american pie brought her more satisfaction than just fame She said, I got a lot of play at being a MILF and I got a lot of sexual action from American Pie.

There were so many benefits to doing that movie.

I mean, there would be like 200 people that i would never have slept with that is so crazy i guess that makes sense like she really was like america's myth yeah so i didn't really ever sit back and think like how that must have you know affected her social life yeah but the fact that it did makes a lot of sense and that she embraced it she's just a queen like

yeah She is.

One of my favorite like things about Jennifer Coolidge is how she acknowledges so much of her recent like resurgence to fame has to do with Ariana Grande and like getting like a younger generation of people obsessed with Jennifer.

And I think that's also how she wound up landing White Lotus, which has now given her like another

phase of her career.

That's so cool.

Like we love

women supporting women and it's cool that Jennifer like acknowledges it as like this turning point in her career for like a comeback.

Yeah.

Jennifer Cool is just everything.

I've never really seen American Pie.

Really?

I've seen bits of it, but no.

I've definitely seen the first one.

I wasn't like watching all of them, but I think I probably like watched it on cable when I was a kid like once.

I know people are going to like cancel me for never having seen it, but we're just like a little young.

I think like American Pie movies are like definitely like canceled.

Oh, so that cancels each other.

They definitely don't age well, you know.

Interesting.

We were just like a little for when it came out, we were a little young to be watching it.

So is it like more targeted towards boys?

Yeah, I think it was like for teens.

And like that girl was in it, you know, like the girl.

This one time at Bankcamp.

That's her, right?

Like from Lily from How I Met Your Mother.

Tara Reed also, yeah.

Definitely.

Tara Reed.

I haven't heard that name in forever.

I hope she's doing well.

Like truly, honestly, deeply.

Deeply.

Madly.

Are you ready for our fifth and final story, which is something that is not doing well?

Oh my God, our fifth and final story already.

Yep.

Well, we go slow, we go fast, we just can't get it together.

Our fifth and final story is brought to you by an air doctor.

Oh, we got to get an air doctor down here.

Okay, great.

Our fifth and final story is some movie news that's kind of crazy.

The Batgirl movie has been shelved, canceled, not happening despite spending $70 million on it, and it's done.

Okay, who was supposed to be Batgirl?

Batgirl was supposed to be Leslie Grace.

She's from In the Heights, but also it was pretty star-studded.

What's that guy's name from Whiplash?

J.K.

Simmons was in it.

Love him.

Michael Keaton like, reprises his role for a little bit.

Brendan Frazier is the villain.

Not Brendan Frazier, the love of my life.

Yeah, so they spent $70 million on the movie, and they actually went over by a lot of millions, and they finished it, and they were.

But it's done?

Yeah, it's done.

And they were like, the star was even like talking about it in interviews.

Like, it was about a drug.

And it, like, tested so badly that that's one reason why they are just pulling it.

It's not even going direct to DVD.

It's just not happening.

They put out such bad movies that if this one was too bad to release, I cannot imagine how bad it was.

I think also, even though it was done and put, I think actually putting it out would tarnish the brand.

And it's such a prestigious brand that like they actually are just

splushing the money down the toilet.

Okay.

I also have like an extremely hot take about like taking like famous roles and making them female.

You mean Jamie Bond?

Yes.

Everyone's like, we need a female James Bond.

We need a famous, a fame, a female Batman.

The only Supergirl is different because Supergirl actually like exists.

Like, create, I'm, like, I'm, I'm saying, like, taking roles that are famous and male and making them female.

Like, I'm so not here for that.

First of all, it feels like a handout.

Like, oh, we need to give like a special movie for the girls because they're like dumb and stupid.

Like, it just feels like so like embarrassing.

And it's like, okay, instead of making a spin-off of like the Melissa Benoist TV show,

Like it was just like cringy.

Like, why don't you just create more original roles that are female-centered?

Like instead of just giving us like handouts.

Right.

Original roles.

And also like something like background.

Like I really do think the majority of the audience for DC movies like are men.

That's not true.

I know what you're going to say.

I don't think that's true.

And also like female superheroes, even if it is like a male-centric audience, like they love it.

No, and they do perform well, like Brie Larson.

Right, but they, I don't think like the Marvel audience like likes like, and I don't know, I'm not like a Marvel girly, but at least for me, like I just see from the outside, I'm like okay you want to get more women involved like write original roles for women instead of being like it's Batman but a girl Batman being a man or a woman doesn't make me want to see Batman any more or less yeah I will happen to see it if someone has it put on in my living room yeah I can't remember a time in recent history or like memory where a movie doesn't get released.

That's like so weird.

So weird, especially like something so big budgeted.

Yeah.

I wonder like what there's like tea there.

This has to be more than that.

Definitely tea there.

There was also, they were citing like organizational changes within like DC, Warner Brothers, whatever.

And like the new person who's the head of something is pretty

budget conscious and they would need to spend even more millions marketing in this.

Like it would be another 30 to 50 million and it's bad.

As opposed to just like swallowing the loss.

Yeah.

You know, I'm, I think that's probably the right choice, but that's just crazy.

I can't even.

It's crazy.

I can't recall a movie that never came out.

You're right.

They usually like do like sad to DVD like on demand, demand, give it away for free.

Right.

Pretend, like, release it and not really talk about it.

Even if, like, and even with movies like with, like, remember after Kevin Spacey, he had done a few movies and they were like, okay, here, watch them or done that.

Right.

Like, very low-key release.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Huh.

Well, that's like the movie we just watched, Death on the Nile, like the Army Hammer.

That was like right with Army Hammer.

There wasn't a ton of promotion.

And it was like a decently good movie, but it never got like the fanfare because they were like embarrassed to have worked with Army.

You think?

It was a good idea.

Yeah, I never even saw a commercial for it.

I had seen some promo.

I thought it was because it didn't get like really good reviews.

The movie was good enough.

It wasn't a bad movie.

It wasn't as good as the,

it wasn't as good as the original.

What was the original?

Agatha Christie.

Well, not an original, just a different Agatha Christie.

Prequel.

Murder on the original.

But it's not a prequel.

You know what I mean?

It's like the same chapter.

Keel Perot.

It's the same.

Yeah, Eric Kule.

So

it was a fine movie.

Like, there was no reason to hide the release unless they were ashamed of working with cannibalist Army Hammer.

Right, but still so many movies, even when they have like a canceled person in post, they just go forth, you know?

Do they?

Like Westside Story.

Yeah, but like that's okay.

That's a really interesting example because Westside Story, of course, stars a canceled person.

But like for some reason, Hollywood is like not like keeping up with Ancel Elgore.

Like they like are acting like they don't know what we're talking about.

So he's not canceled?

Like I think the America would say yes, but I think like he's still getting, you know, roles and brand deals.

Like, I think his life remains pretty much unaffected.

Interesting.

I think.

Yeah.

I don't know.

It's definitely been a little hush-hush.

I feel like he's like waiting still.

He's in the holding period.

Yeah, but he's still like working actively.

Yeah.

So that's a good example.

Those are the fast five stories.

I feel as though you needed to know them.

What happened to Batgirl?

If you have any tea, let us know.

Yeah, no, I'm definitely curious because it's like,

it's interesting.

And even though there definitely like was organizational changes that like change the way like DC movies are made now, whatever, you don't throw away a 70 million whole film unless it's a hot piece of garbage.

Yeah, I guess we have to see it.

I now I would love to see it.

Maybe this is a press thing because now I'm intrigued.

Yeah.

I didn't even know there was going to be a bat girl.

No, me neither.

And now I am intrigued.

How bad could a movie be?

And like, why is it bat man and then bat girl?

Like, what about bat grown-ass woman?

Fetishizing young girls.

You know, I'm telling you, there's something really fucking like weird about this.

That's nasty.

That's so true.

Yeah, bat child.

Like, it's weird.

No, like, it's girls.

Like, girls are kids.

Yeah, women.

Bat lady.

I like a lady.

Something.

Bat chick.

Um, bat shit.
