S5 Ep47: It's A Lot with Tayshia: Wednesday, April 20th, 2022

Good morning millennials.

Welcome back to the morning toast.

Happy Wednesday, also known as hump day.

And I'm very excited because the girl sitting next to me is so beautiful.

I might hump her.

Welcome back to the show, Tayshia.

Woohoo!

You've become like Madonna.

You're just like a one, a Tayshia.

I was looking at your Instagram this morning and your Instagram is just Tayshia.

Yeah, that's so cool.

I mean, to be honest with you, I love it that way.

Yeah.

I really don't.

Fun fact about me, last name has changed

before and it almost did again so at this point we're just dropping it off got it is Adams your birth name my maiden maiden that's the right word

yeah well welcome back to the show I love having you here you are a hard woman to book you're traveling you're here you're there you're a star you're hosting the bachelor the bachelorette how is Tatia welcome back to New York first of all

I love it here number one it's warmer today yes

the rest of the week which I have a bone to pick with New York.

Y'all know that.

With Mother Nature.

But I'm so happy.

I'm like in this city.

I love it.

I feel more New York, like a city girl than Orange County.

And this is your permanent residence, right?

I mean, I still have a place in Orange County.

Oh, you do?

Yeah.

And travel a lot.

Yeah.

Your family's there.

Yeah.

Like, I actually booked a flight for tomorrow.

So, oh, no.

I need sun.

100%.

100%.

So, what's it like living in New York?

Not a lot of people who come off the bachelor live in New York.

A lot of people move to LA.

Are you joking?

No.

I feel like I was one of the first.

Yeah, okay.

Now there's about 35 people.

And I'm just like, I actually try to do something different.

Now,

this is the main hub for all bachelor girls.

You're not like other girls.

No, I mean, you know what?

Now I just have to move to London.

Totally.

Well, the thing is, is I have to be totally honest, the last season of The Bachelor I ever watched was your season.

Well, you're you/slash Claire.

And I'm so excited you're here because we have this running joke at the toast that like I need to tell you about.

So when we used to recap your season, for some reason, we back onto like not really a busy street, but there's a street behind us.

And for some reason, like whenever we would talk about you, like these trucks would honk their horns so loud.

And it's like annoying for us because when we try to record audio, you want premiums, silence, and they're always being so loud.

So we used to call them the truckers for Tatia because they were here supporting you.

And every time you would say the word Tayshia.

I swear to God, the truck would show up.

Yes.

So the truckers for Tatia, I hope they show up today.

But I want to let you know, like you have the truckers of America behind you.

It's so funny, though, because like that started appearing on my Instagram.

And I'm like, I don't know what that means.

But like, yeah, people go truckers for Tayshia.

Like, and they'll say this all the time.

And I was like, I mean, like, is it because I wear a trucker hat sometimes?

Like, I'm confused, but like, also at the same time, I'm maybe I need to do a trucker.

Like, I didn't know what they were trying to say.

No, literally, the truckers for Tayshia, they are like a fierce group.

Wow.

Well, thank you, Truckers for Tayshia.

Thank you, Taylor.

I appreciate it.

Yeah.

I actually pay all of them to do that.

So I blame it.

Yeah.

Okay, so let's catch up a little bit.

You're going to dive into the Fast V.

It's also Wednesday, so we're going to get advice.

We've got some interesting submissions today, and I would love to get your take on them.

But before we catch up on that, like, how's single life?

How's Tayshia doing?

Tayshia's actually doing really well, which I'm not gonna lie, it was a little rocky.

Of course.

For a little bit.

Breakups are hard.

Very hard.

But also at the same time, I really think that my trip to London was kind of like the refresh, the rebirth, the like new rejuvenation.

Yes, it's exactly what I needed.

And

it's been phenomenal ever since.

Good.

Yeah, it's kind of just like you needed to just do something on your own.

And that's what exactly I needed to do.

And I just walked around and everyone's like, what did you do there?

Like, did you have an agenda?

I'm like, I actually went with no agenda.

And like, that was the agenda.

Yeah.

And I just learned so much about myself.

Although it is a little odd constantly going to like happy hour by yourself.

It's a little sad.

Yeah, just a little bit.

So I did start to like make friends and whatnot.

But I'm happy to be back in the city.

Do you prefer traveling by yourself or with like friends?

I don't think I've ever traveled by myself.

That wasn't like work-related.

It's actually really fun to travel by yourself.

I can imagine.

Because you don't have to worry about everybody else, but also at the same time,

you can like stay longer.

You can do this, do that.

I don't know.

You can meet whoever and you don't have to feel like, oh, great.

They want to go home.

And I'm like, down and talk to you.

I don't know.

It's actually really nice.

Yeah, no, I imagine that it is, but you have to have like a lot of confidence.

Yes and no.

Well, yeah, you definitely kind of feel like a fish out of water.

Everyone's watching you right now, especially in a new country.

But no one actually cares about you.

That is the most important thing you've ever said.

No, no one actually cares.

And I think that like as you grow up, it's like a lesson.

You think like everyone is looking at you all the time.

If you embarrass yourself, like everyone's thinking about it.

And once you come to learn that literally nobody cares about you, it is so, well, you're like a famous person, so like some people do care about you, but like

just like socially, when you come to realize that, like there's so much freedom with that lesson.

Like no one's thinking about you.

It's so true.

And you know what?

New York actually kind of warmed me up to that first.

Yes.

Because I started doing like this thing where I take myself out to dinner every Sunday.

Like I actually love it.

I go to dinner.

This is odd, but I, I don't know if you've ever gone to go get like a foot rub.

It's like, it's $4.

It's the best.

It's like, literally, I so.

I'm more of a best girly, but yeah.

Oh, okay.

I love.

So I love to go get like at least a glass or two of rose, go get a foot rub.

It's like literally the best thing that's ever happened.

My best friend now does it.

She's like, this is probably the best piece of advice you could have ever given me.

But yeah, I do that.

And

I was talking about foot rubs for a second.

I was like, why do I talk about foot rubs?

We like to call this show the morning tangent.

We just go off.

There you go.

But it's just like nice, like, get to go to dinner and date yourself for a little bit I couldn't agree more I also feel like coming off the heels of your breakup you were so booked and busy always work wise yeah so you like I actually feel like that's a blessing in disguise you don't really have time to like sit in your own self-pity and just be sad yeah you have to cash those checks absolutely which is the best I mean like I'm not I'm not saying no to it

coming you just got so free let's take on more work almost like a little too free though I guess but at the same time I don't know I really needed that moment to myself and I still have it right now which is nice it comes in spurts right now.

But I think I've kind of designed my life to be that way this year.

Yeah.

Just to like really kind of be in the city.

I also, you've just like, you've had such a

jam-packed career since The Bachelor.

I always forget that you also hosted like a bunch of seasons.

Yeah, it's kind of odd, right?

What was that like going from a contestant to a lead to a host, which I think like is the dream?

I mean, it's kind of amazing.

Like, I still pinch myself over it because I don't think I ever realized exactly what was going on.

It was crazy.

Because it's just like, okay, yeah.

Okay, yeah.

Like, and you've you say yes to everything.

Exactly.

And it's basically your family.

You've done it time and time.

I've been with them for like, what, four years now?

Right.

So you kind of just didn't think twice.

But at the same time,

I like cannot even believe.

Like, do you remember me on cold season?

I don't know.

I know you do, but like.

Honestly, yes.

I was the quietest, shyest, like little,

I don't even know what I did.

I just probably bat my eyelashes.

Right.

But then you really came in into your own own on paradise.

Okay.

I loved paradise, though.

And you were like,

everything.

Everything.

Like, I just, and I don't even watch The Bachelor anymore.

So, like, my frame of reference from like Bachelor history is really the last couple of years that you were on.

And you were just a star.

I feel like you never really shied away from being yourself.

You always pulled out the looks.

And I have so many questions about Paradise because I can't imagine anything worse than getting ready in the heat.

There's no air conditioning.

Like the hair, the the sweaty makeup, like for me personally, it's like just a big sweater.

It is my worst nightmare.

And you might as well have been in Antarctica.

You just showed up everywhere like snatch to the gods.

Listen, okay, I feel bad for you for number one, but this is the thing.

I love the heat.

I don't sweat.

Oh, you're from OC.

No, I like live for it.

Like, so it was like.

The perfect situation for me to even have my season in Palm Springs

was 122 degrees.

That would have been my worst nightmare.

I would have to have it.

The men looked like they had like just showered.

And I was just like, why are you guys hot?

Yeah.

Sweating through their shirts.

I loved it.

So I don't know.

Paradise is like very my element.

I'm also half Mexican, so it's like

home.

I get it.

I get it.

Well, you did it flawlessly.

Well, thank you.

I mean, sort of.

I mean, I'm sure there's a lot we need.

Margarita helps.

But in terms of getting selected to be a host, I feel like there's so many contestants that come out of the show.

People love them.

They get.

tons of different jobs, opportunities.

But to be selected by Bachelor Nation for that job with Caitlin, obviously.

Yeah.

What did that feel like?

Did you feel like you were just better than everyone?

Because I would have felt that.

Oh my God, no.

I was like, are you sure?

Like, you're sweet.

Is it me?

Like, but also, it's very nerve-wracking because you feel like you have to

uphold a lot.

Like, you have to be on a certain level.

And you're like,

I'm still

the same.

I was a contestant.

Right.

And now it's a host.

And, like, you don't want to try to make people feel like I'm inferior.

I don't know.

Just, it's a different dynamic, but also at the same time, like, it really did.

build me up.

And I also feel like I was meant to be in that.

You were.

You were a killer.

I feel like that that's like what what I want to do for my life.

And so, like,

perfect place to start.

I'm really happy.

Good.

And I'm thankful, but like, also, like, damn straight.

Yeah.

No, you killed it.

Thank you.

And though, in terms of getting back out there dating-wise, I'm assuming I know the answer to this question, but would you ever date Bachelor Nation?

Absolutely not.

That's what I figured.

And I think that's the sentiment from a lot of people who go on the show and it like doesn't work out.

Well, the reason why though, too, is just like, it's really hard having a public relationship.

And I don't like,

I don't even imagine like what I can't even imagine what a celebrity feels like but for me for bachelor like those fans are such diehards and they feel like they have to be in on everything there's an entitlement absolutely but even like you can say like oh we're just in a funk today we're just not doing well like they will completely come up with an entire different scenario and you're like wait I just actually told you what the problem was right and now you're running with this tangent and it's like this whole thing you have to like fight and it actually starts shit in your relationship of course and I'm just like

do you want us to freak out or do you not want us to work out?

Me and Jackie always say normalize looking miserable in relationships because a lot of times we'll get paparazzi pictures and it'll turn into a whole story like trouble in paradise.

But like we're human beings, like if I was photographed with Ben, like people would think we're getting divorced every single day.

Like I'm just a miserable person.

Like

what I look like.

Normalize being miserable.

Yeah.

Because it's just a part of life.

Not every part of a relationship is going to be like, hee hee hee, the best ever.

So true.

And like, that's also weird if it is always like that.

100%.

You know what I mean?

So like you guys are going to be talking to him like, it's not always like, you know, roses in your relationship.

Like, what's wrong with you?

It's so true.

So I just love seeing you in the season of your life.

And what's next, Lotatia?

God, I mean, hopefully more hosting opportunities.

I feel like that's like really where I'm trying to like hone in right now.

Well, you're always welcome here at the morning show.

Oh, thank you.

Honestly, and it's the cutest set ever.

So like I feel like I hope.

But

other than that, like right now, I'm really just trying to come into like the world of me being like a single woman that can actually provide for herself.

And like, there's no better feeling.

confident no it is really not and it's like confident in herself i have a lot to offer

girl you have a lot to offer all thank you you always have it takes a lot to like actually like feel that way though i know i know and you know the last time you were on the show i think it was before you were the lead i think it was right after paradise you were still living in oc yeah and you were still this just like wonderfully charismatic positive person like you have this almost toxic positivity about you

like you are so smiley all the time like you're so nice you're so lovely and it's nice to see that like after all you know the opportunities and where you've come from you're really still the same bitch.

Oh, thank you, and I mean that in a positive way.

Also, another thing we say here at the morning shows: normally I'm saying the word bitch, like, oh, it's a positive word, it's definitely a high-used word in my vocabulary.

No, same, and like, everyone's like, bitch.

It's no, it's no.

I was just saying, it's endearing.

Yes.

It's just me and my best friend call each other all day, every day.

So, I'll say the same time a while.

I didn't want to make you feel bad about it.

No, no.

I would be offended if you didn't call me a bitch, okay?

But, like, also, my family and my best friend keep me very humble, too.

So, it's also really nice to like have that very like solid foundation.

Has it been hard to live further away from them, like harder than you expected?

I mean, honestly, I'm like, I'm never coming home.

They're like, you haven't been home forever.

Can you please come?

I'm like, right.

No.

Like, I'm actually not.

You're living your best life.

I love being here, but I've also lived at home my entire life.

Right.

And so I think my parents are filing to the fact like, you've been home for every holiday.

Like, you don't have to come home.

Right.

Like, go do your thing.

Are you on any dating apps?

No.

Are you against it?

Yes.

For what particular reason?

Just because like I'm a hopeless romantic and I really feel like I'll just like run into like my man like on the front of the Eiffel Tower.

Oh God, please.

Yeah.

Just like across like this, like the crosswalk and you just like see him and like winks at you and it's just like this whole romantic freaking thing.

Yeah.

Like I really thought I was gonna fall in love in London.

Yeah, I knew I could have totally seen that for you.

Like a London businessman.

Yeah, because like there was this guy that, I don't know if you saw my stories, but I was actually like in my hotel room and I was dancing around in like my underground t-shirt.

Yeah.

And there's a guy that was like actually looking at me and like, how romantic could that have been?

With like, he was actually really cute and we fell in love normal not a serial kid but also like i definitely got a better look at him and i was like absolutely not

so where was he like across the street so the buildings are very close like here in new york right and he like my windows here his work building slash office cubicle is right there didn't really realize that they were like that close and i guess it was a work day i was on vacation and um literally turned around he's giggling straight up looking at me and I'm just like I just like grabbed everything I had like okay I have to say like like it does sound like a meet-cute but it also sounds like a peeping tom no wait yes it could have been really

like it's funny how you could put a spit on something like it's really cute but also like really scary I didn't even think about like I could have gotten that could have been a serial killer yeah no or like he would like take pictures of you and then become obsessed with you and like start uh like a wall in his house with pictures of you oh my wait now I'm scared to travel by myself

that wasn't the point of what I was trying to say gosh dang it it just goes to say you know be careful perspective is everything Yeah, absolutely.

I'm just going to like live in my fantasy that like...

And you know what?

I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to burst your love bubble.

And you know what?

I'm toxic and I'm sorry.

And I apologize.

We got to think about these things.

We're going to dive into the fast five and I want to know, like, are you a pop culture girly?

Because you, it's, it's a weird place to be in when like you're, you're a fan of pop culture, but then you also become a part of it.

Yeah.

What is that like?

I am and I'm not.

Like everyone expects you to kind of like be binging all these TV shows.

Right.

Like, I think part of the reason I took a step back from Bachelor Nation,

there's a multitude of things, but also like I can't really like give a lot of input on it because I kind of stopped watching the shows.

Of course.

Especially since you see all the sauces made.

Well, yeah, but like it was just a lot for a minute.

I just needed to breathe.

So even with like I watch Royal Housewives and whatnot.

Right.

I watch Obviously Keeping Up.

Of course.

What did you think of the first episode?

Okay.

I'm actually obsessed with it.

So good.

But also I feel like they kind of do like a little like bachelor twist because like they don't go in like their little

interview rooms anymore.

Like it's like Kim like like on the side of the set.

Yeah, it's giving documentary.

I kind of love it.

Me too.

It's very real.

Right?

Yeah.

But okay, did you like the vibe of it?

I love, I loved every moment.

Every freaking second of it.

I thought it was much better than the eShow in the sense that eShow had so much filler.

Yes.

So much idiotic pranks.

And you know what?

I don't, not everything is going to be high drama all the time, but I really am interested to see how they live day to day.

Like, what do you eat for lunch?

I thought what they were eating at the barbecue was so interesting.

I knew it was.

And I love how Chloe was like, I kind of forgot what it feels like to have the cameras.

And Kim was like, just pretend they're not there.

Right, talking about the cameras is noise.

It was so cool.

I completely agree.

I i don't know i feel like very close to them i don't know why and chloe just looks so bomb no i know i feel very close to them too in like a delusional way no it's yeah i know you do like when they love them when we get together i'm like where why the and i'm dead serious like how was i not invited

like i feel actual fomo for people like who have no idea who i am it's rude honestly god i want to meet kim i know i have met her you have

okay well I'll tell you this.

I was at the Beverly Hills Hotel once having dinner, and she looked back at me.

Like, I think she looked, and then she like looked back again.

Well you know she watches The Bachelor.

I know she says well one time she was actually looking at her phone and there was a picture from the paparazzi like from right behind and it was my face on her phone.

Like she was reading an article.

And yeah, I kind of freaked out semi.

Wait, that's the craziest thing ever.

I know.

What was the article about?

Did you recognize that?

Back when it was like a Colton season, it was like me, Hannah, and Cassie, I think.

Oh my gosh.

Yeah.

I know.

I kind of felt, I don't know, it was like very cool.

Nope, that's literally like.

Put that on my tombstone.

That's the coolest thing.

Like she knows my face.

Yeah, of course.

Which is so wild.

She watches.

She totally knows who you are.

I feel like you can meet her soon.

Okay, so I can't like I want to be on a Skims campaign.

Well, you know, we have it on, you know, decent authority that Kylie actually listens to the podcast.

Really?

Yeah.

So if you, not every day, but feel free to speak into the camera directly to Kylie.

Hi, well, you're iconic.

And also, I want some lip kits.

Yeah, yeah.

Like, they're literally in my backyard.

Oh, how can I not watch it?

Easily.

Yeah, okay.

Yeah, it's really,

it's bad.

It's gone downhill.

It's real the music video.

I mean, okay, wait, I don't even want to talk about it because, like, honestly, I'm, the secondhand embarrassment is real.

It's to the point where I was watching, I was like, absolutely not.

Close my computer.

I was gone.

You see them around town when you're in OC?

Um,

yes and no.

I've seen like Emily and Gina and I like them actually.

Yeah,

they're kind of fun, but I haven't like really interacted with them, no.

Would you ever be a housewife?

I didn't say no, but like it depends which one.

And where the franchise is.

Like right now, OC's in a lull, so you don't want to be associated.

I want to be like Beverly Hills' housewife.

Girl, me too.

I mean, come on, who doesn't?

Well, there's some big news coming out of Potomac, and I'll explain to you why it's important.

Okay.

So Ashley Darby has announced a separation from her husband, Michael.

No one is the root cause, she says.

So the Real Housewives of Potomac star told Bravo's Daily Dish on Tuesday, she said, almost eight years ago, when Michael and I said, I do, we anticipated sharing every single day together from that moment forward unfortunately that is not our current reality We have decided to separate we are aware that there will be many viewers speculating as to why we have made this decision people will be quick to assume that the causes were too much intrusion by reality TV into the most personal parts of our lives age gap issues cultural problems or child rearing differences pieces of all these may have affected our pure love for each other but no one reason is the root cause for a mutual decision to go our separate ways we are now both at very different stages in our lives and we have different goals for the future yada yada yada so let me tell you why this is like please explain okay so ashley came on the scene husband michael much older than her okay and just like a weird guy but you know what like she stood by him and it was actually admirable after all they'd been through how she like ride or died for this man even after he was accused of like horrific things she was actually it was crazy so he was accused of sexual assault to multiple staff on the production team.

Wait, what?

Yeah, like grabbing guys' asses.

And there have long been rumors of him being gay.

And, you know, eventually the charges got dropped, but there was like weird footage.

Yeah.

It was like a crazy couple seasons of Potomac and it was all really about Michael.

He cheated on her with a stripper while she was pregnant.

Really like not a good guy, but through and through with every allegation, she was a really good housewife in the sense that she shared everything.

She had really uncomfortable conversations on TV.

She found out about the stripper on TV and she handled it like a champ.

Wow.

But through and through, She never left his side and they kept having more babies.

And so I believe, I think she just gave gave birth to her third, or she's pregnant with her third, whatever, something about the third baby.

And now, fans are like, why now?

And it really seemed to me like she wanted to have kids.

Yeah.

And as many as she could, and then she bounced.

And then she was like, she got her dream.

She got what she wanted.

What she wanted.

And you know what?

I think Ashley Darby is an amazing housewife.

And I really like her.

And even though I don't agree with a lot of the time she defended Michael, I'm kind of happy for her.

Like she got her kids.

Yeah.

And now she can bounce.

I mean,

I feel bad for her.

like i know it was really tough how do you stand by i mean i know every relationship is different and you know you always like have your own opinion and you never know what's really never would know what it's like to actually be in that relationship so but like power to her for like

i guess sticking in it as long as she possibly could but i'm happy that she's now getting out of it i agree with you like i know and they discussed last season how she didn't have a prenup he has a lot of money oh gosh um so we love that for her she's taken half and her kids okay well she got what she wanted i know and i feel like now we're gonna see her in the next couple seasons.

Slightly different light.

I know.

And like, she's going to be iconic.

Like, she's going to be, she's going to be like you, like, independent.

And I'm telling you, like, I just see.

I see.

Is she fun?

Like, she's everything.

She, like, loves to drink.

She like was always drinking at Corona.

Even she's just cute.

She's also like a pot stir, bone-carrying housewife.

And I think.

There always has to be a little bit of that.

You can't not be a housewife and not have that.

But I think, and she's never been like afraid of a fight.

I think that like she is going to enter like the next couple of years as like one of the greatest housewives of all time without Michael.

The Michael stuff was always bringing her down.

Like no one could really take her seriously.

Interesting.

Yeah.

Okay, well then this is actually really good news.

I'm actually really excited to see this.

Maybe I'll tune in.

I can't believe you don't watch Potomac.

It is the most underrated franchise.

I think it's up there with Beverly Hills.

Wait.

What?

And people don't give it enough.

I thought Jersey was up there with Beverly Hills.

Jersey's also really good this season.

But Potomac is just this underrated franchise because I think a lot of people haven't heard of Potomac geographically.

It's a newer franchise, but I'm telling you, like, we just came off some of the great, like, I can't believe you don't know about Monique vs.

Candice.

Like,

no, I don't.

It's so good.

Okay, how many seasons are there?

Not that many.

I think maybe they just wrapped their sixth.

And is it necessary to binge the entire thing or can I, like, hop in at a sixth century?

You're going to want to.

Okay.

It's that good.

And, you know, Jesus.

Me and Jackie both binged it like two years ago.

So we haven't even been watching from the beginning.

It's so enjoyable.

And they have some characters, especially in the beginning, like Katie Ross, who I I hear is coming back.

Oh my gosh.

It's so good.

And it makes me annoyed that it's not as popular as other franchises.

It was the same kind of story as Real Housewives of Dallas, which I'm not sure you watched.

No.

It was canceled.

And you know what?

Like, it wasn't that wasn't it, yeah.

But they launched at the same time.

And like, Housewives fans have been watching for so long, I think they're very skeptical of new franchises.

I was going to say, I feel like they have like their shows that they stick to, and like, that's it.

And there's like a hierarchy, you know?

Yes.

But Potomac is that bitch.

I'm telling you.

Really?

I will preach the gospel of Potomac to anyone.

I mean, if you said it's all the way up with Beverly Hills, okay, fine.

Yeah.

When people ask me my top two franchises, I'll usually say Potomac and Beverly Hills.

And I'll only not say Jersey because Jersey this season is amazing.

Yeah.

But not every season is as good, you know?

They always keep it.

Good.

They've never entered a place.

It's always juicy and there's always a lot of family drama.

Like we get it.

They've never gotten into a place of like OC or New York, which right now is both experiencing some just really horrendous content.

Really bad.

What do you think about the news that Real House Towers of New York is now being split into two shows?

Did you hear about that?

Yeah, but I'm excited for the OGs to come back.

Me too.

But like this whole new spin on it is a little confusing to me.

Like, is Julia Fox really being considered?

And if so, like, I don't think that's a show I'm interested in watching.

I don't think that's a show I'm interested in watching either, which is so weird to me because I feel like.

Yeah, but you know what?

People always say this.

Like, people are always so pissed for like a certain bachelor or bachelorette.

And guess what?

Your ass is watching it every single week.

And here you are commenting and like so obsessed and you're in love and you're in bed ready to watch it.

No, you are 100% right about that.

You know what?

I actually have another question for you.

That scene of you

emerging from the pool in the red bikini looking like a smoke show and a half.

How many times did you have to do that?

Wait, question.

Okay.

It was the one they used in the promo like a thousand times.

Okay, so that was an orange bikini.

That was my season.

Sorry.

Only because I did it also in a red bikini with Colton during his season.

I don't know if that actually stemmed.

Yeah, the parallels.

So it actually stemmed from being in singapore coming out of the water got it and i was doing a little like little hallibury moment and it ended up being like my thing it was and then so in the pool i probably only did about three four times that's not bad no it wasn't bad you've got a lot of upper arm strength oh well thank you but also at the same time i mean that i like live for moments like that it was so iconic and and i love how they knew it because they used that in every single commercial like a thousand times it was i mean First of all, it's kind of rude because they didn't tell me they were going to do that.

You should have to be like, I thought it was just going to be part of the episode.

Overall, next thing you know, it was like my everywhere.

Yeah.

You should have gotten paid extra for that.

Maybe.

Yeah.

What the heck?

We have a bone to pay.

For how many times I used it in commercials.

Like, it's true.

It's so good.

Well, thank you.

You get a lot of people slide into your DMs.

You know what?

No.

Really?

Like, I don't really check them though, but like,

I would love to go through your DMs with a fine tooth comb.

Like, honestly, that will be kind of fun.

I know.

Give me your phone.

Honestly.

I won't say people's names.

I won't say people's names.

No, wait.

This is, where is it?

You don't have to.

You don't have to.

Maybe afterwards, though.

We have to.

That could be kind of fun.

I know.

I can't believe you don't, like, I would obsess over who DMs me.

I feel like there's just probably like famous people in your DMs just sitting there.

Yeah, but okay, unless it's like Channing Tatum or like Jack Carlo, like, I don't want to hear it.

Okay, so who is your like celebrity all-time?

Well, all-time, obviously, Matthew McConaughey, but like

William Hemsworth.

I think he's taken Zoeka Can.

I think he's taken Zoom.

Channing.

I'm so upset at the news.

I just saw the picture of her, him and Zoe yesterday.

And Channing Tatum, yeah, is also unavailable.

Well, also, Jack Carlo.

Yeah, but like you would have to wait in line with a million other people.

But this is the thing, and this is the bone I have to pick with this.

First of all, I think he's 23, 24.

He's super young.

Yeah, I've been into him since his first album six years ago.

So where were y'all at?

Oh, you know what?

Where are y'all at?

You can cut the line.

Wait.

The line of people waiting outside to date Jack Harlow.

No, that's what I'm trying to say.

You get to the front.

I didn't even know he was a singer up until like two weeks ago.

It's literally to the point where my friends, after first class came out last week or two weeks, whatever, my girlfriends, like random people were just texting me being like, I only know of this man because you were the person that introduced me to him two years ago, driving in your car, blasting all of his songs.

Pick up your phone.

Like, I know, Sylvia, like, I know

everything about Jack.

Say it to Jack.

Say it to Jack.

Jack.

I'm your girl.

That was, like, so awkward.

Hi, my name is Tayshia.

Jack, I'm available.

Like, what do you do?

DM me.

I'm hurting.

I've been married for 100 years.

Well, no.

No.

I mean, I've slid into like a gay man's DMs.

Okay.

Which I'm just like, hey, queen, what's up?

Like, I try to

do that?

I don't know.

I I'm not entirely sure, but like I've said many times, there is a gay man living inside of me.

So I feel like I really relate to the gay men, and that's why I feel very confident DMing gay men.

See, that's I'm fine with that.

Yeah, but like me as a woman, like should I

like trying to date?

Oh, um, yeah.

The thing is, you'll never know until you try.

And like, life is short.

Take risks.

Stop it.

She is smiling so hard as she's saying this, which means absolutely not.

I mean, I don't think I ever would, but I'm just saying, like, like, isn't that so cringy?

Like, doesn't that seem like a fangirl?

It does, but it really depends on what you're saying.

What is the context of a conversation sliding into a man's DMs?

Right.

If you're saying, like, hey, I'm a big fan, like, that's losery.

Are you joking?

No.

But if you have something like, oh, my friend, Sarah, like, you know, like, if you have common ground, you have to say the perfect thing.

Right.

For them to actually pay attention to me, like, okay, wait, she's not creeping me out.

Right.

The check mark helps.

Okay.

Obviously.

Yeah.

But I would definitely recommend that you do that.

Okay.

Well, I compile a list.

Yeah, just think about it.

Okay.

You're making a list and checking it twice.

I love that.

So we're sending our best to the Darby family, but I do think this is the best for everyone.

I agreed.

Next up, Lizzo is in a relationship.

She revealed that she's currently dating someone and she went basically on Radio Andy, getting the scoop, love Radio Andy.

Yeah.

So she was spotted out twice with a mystery man and he was wearing a mask and a hat both times.

So like no one could see who it was.

We didn't know if it was someone famous.

Right.

And she revealed on Radio Andy that she has been seeing someone for a while.

Um, he's not a celebrity.

And then Andy asked, like, what's it like to be so famous and date someone who's not famous?

And if it's weird.

She said, it's not weird if you have the right person.

If you have the right person, no, not at all.

It's not even a factor.

It should be a mutually supportive, no matter what that, it should be mutually supportive, no matter what that person does.

So I love that Lizzo's in a relationship.

I love that she's dating someone not famous because like she's such a big star.

Like a lot of celebrities use dating as like a means of client.

yeah yeah and she's just like so famous that she doesn't need it and she's just like dating someone who makes her happy yeah and i love that for her no wonder she's been like literally glowing and like the happiest living her best freaking life and her music is

very positive exactly like behind the scenes like she has it going on and she's like in a relationship and nobody else is meddling into that like it's probably so refreshing peaceful yeah what are your thoughts on dating as someone who's well known by other people like do you find it makes it more difficult to date um

to be honest with you i I don't, yeah, I don't really date very much.

It's just really hard.

Yeah.

I guess you just don't know, like, people's intentions at times.

And, like, I don't want to be the person to be constantly on the lookout and like be hyper-vigilant.

Like, what are your intentions?

Right, like paranoid.

It just looks a little weird.

But also at the same time, I will say, like, people in New York are so nice and friendly.

And I feel like they also aren't like weird.

Yeah, people in New York are a different breed.

Like, nothing phases them.

Yeah.

And it's nice, especially for dating.

Yeah.

And also, you feel like a lot of people are watching, but not everybody's watching, which i love too but do you think when you do start like diving in more into the dating scene you're gonna gravitate towards famous people or non-famous people i mean

again jack if you're listening absolutely

but um i'm not opposed yeah i think it really depends on the situation yeah like i definitely would not do it for like social climbing or PR stunt right because that just seems like a freaking headache and yeah, I can't not be truthful.

But it used to be fun, you know?

I mean, it could be fun, like very scandalous, but like,

whatever.

But also, dating, like, a very normal human also sounds really funny.

Sounds lovely.

Yeah.

And I just imagine Lizzo in a relationship is probably like the best girlfriend.

She's so funny.

She's so funny.

I was just going to say, she's probably so fun.

She's so charismatic.

She doesn't give a fuck.

I wonder what their dates are like.

I know.

I want to know how Lizzo got to this place of mental clarity.

Cause like it's, it seems so healthy, even with all the fake.

All of it.

I'm so jealous of people who so clearly are living their best lives.

Like really, everyone says, like, I don't care what people think, but like, like, I care a lot.

Actually, yes.

Yeah, but she's one of those people you could tell, like, she totally talks a talk and walks a walk.

And I love to see people who clearly have just like really good mental health.

I mean, of course, you never know what people are going through, but like, she just seems so positive and like actually happy.

No, I agree with that.

It's not a facade.

It's not like she's like putting it on front of the camera.

Right.

She, yeah, there's, you can definitely tell when it's like genuine.

Yeah, it's like almost tangible.

But also, I almost feel like

she's gotten where she is because she's unapologetically herself and like it's not because she's you know stick thin amazing like model body and like this that this that like people genuinely love her because she's an insane singer

i love like just like her energy confidence her energy everything that she exudes like like is relatable and so i just love her for that it's like i feel like that has to be like a major confidence boost like right you're right like she got famous being exactly who she is yeah and she never had to change like i think a lot of people will tell you their experience in the industry was like they were always told like cut your hair hair get a nose shot lose weight exactly and she got to just like rise to a-list stardom as completely authentically herself and that must just be like the best feeling in the world she's good as hell literally

I love Lizzie I thought she was great on SNL also she's amazing her new music sounds fabulous I saw her perform at Global Citizens Festival in the city how was it and she was just like another level and the flute just gives me life.

It is the most random thing.

I will say, I would never put her and a flute together.

Unless she was in marching band and she just

magical.

It's magical.

And every time she brings it out, it's like a combination of funny,

unbelievably shocking, how talented she is.

And when you think about it, like singing, dancing in front of so many people is so tough.

Like your breath work, probably, you have to have to have like really good breath work.

Yes.

And then to blow a flute.

Wait, that's, I never thought about that.

Always thinking, like, how is she not out of breath?

I just stand up for 10 minutes and I cannot breathe.

Like, I'm choking.

By the end of the show, I'm like, I I need to go to the hospital.

Like, does anybody have a bag?

What is it?

Like, Lizzo's bag.

I mean, that brown paper bag.

So I always think, I'm like, that is so impressive that she can also do all that.

And it's so true.

It's so true.

I never thought about that.

It's so true.

Kudos to Lizzo.

Kudos to Lizzo.

Literally kill it on all fronts.

I'm kudon, Radio Andy, for getting the scoop.

Like, we actually all want to know.

Next up, I...

I have any excuse when I have a new guest on to talk about the Smith family because I'd love to hear their take on the slap.

Okay.

So we have some Jada news, but I want to hear your take on the slap first.

I was so confused.

I mean, at first I was like, this is a stunt.

Like, I'm just, I actually feel really, I feel like Will let me down.

I know.

Just because like I grew up with him, like he, I America Sweetheart.

Freshman, I literally, like, who didn't, but like binge it every single night.

I actually use it to go to bed at the time.

So like, I really look up to him.

Like, he's always been like such like a light and a positive figure.

So like when that happened, I was just like, it actually hurt.

It was such a letdown.

It was was such a letdown.

And like, I hated associating his name with every article that was coming out.

Totally.

And it doesn't stop.

Especially because him and Jada are very public.

Yes.

Very open, you know, red table talk, the entanglement.

And now Jaden Smith is giving thoughts on, well, a source is giving thoughts.

So we don't know if he actually thinks this.

But I thought it was interesting, just like getting his perspective on Jada being so open, you know, coming to the table every time there's a fight in the family.

Like some things can be private.

Yeah.

But a source is saying Jaden knows that his family is a little different and how open his mother is about their personal life, and that has never been easy for him.

He also goes on to say,

no, sorry, this article has a thousand ads.

Get out of here.

Oh my god, it's so fucking annoying.

So despite this, the discomfort,

at this point, he's used to having his personal life on display and even criticized.

At times, he just wants to move past the Oscar slap.

I guess I never really thought about, like, we always know, like, Will and and Jada are like kind of messy.

Yeah.

But I never thought about the impact that it has on the kids, especially because Willow's on the show, but Jaden is not.

So he doesn't really have control over what's shared.

It's interesting to me because I can appreciate Jada

not being such a like a refined woman where she feels like she has to like pretend like everything's okay and she's able to talk and talk about real life stuff so people can actually like, I don't know, learn and feel relatable.

Everyone has shit.

Absolutely.

But at the same time,

some things can be private.

I really feel that way.

Especially family stuff.

That's like the same thing.

It's like your kids that you have to like protect.

You know what I mean?

I'm not saying like, I'm sure she's a phenomenal mom.

But for me,

if that was my situation, like, I don't know if I would feel good talking to him about an entanglement with my daughter

right here.

I'm so sorry to interrupt.

I just remembered something that I have to tell you.

God, what?

Okay.

Why?

Do you know not skinny but not fat?

Yes.

You know she uses that Jif of you all the time.

It's a lot.

It's a lot.

Do you know that it was referenced in her interview with Kim Kardashian?

Yes.

You're lying.

Okay, thank you.

Oh my God.

Okay.

For those who don't know, Not Skinny Bannath Fat is this hilarious Instagrammer and she loves to use this gif of Tayshia.

I think it's from your season.

Yeah.

Where you're saying, it's a lot.

Yeah.

At any time like a celebrity is like being extra, she'll always post the gif, it's a lot.

It's become like her thing.

And Kim Kardashian was on her podcast and Kim Kardashian follows Amanda as her real name.

Yeah.

And like loves her content because it's very Kardashian focused.

And in the interview, she was like, it's a lot, as you like to say.

Oh,

my God.

See, this is the thing.

We need to be friends.

It's happening.

The universe.

It's so crazy.

I'm sorry.

It's actually beating kind of fast.

I'm sorry to interrupt.

I just had to tell you that because I forget everything.

Wait.

Okay, so this is iconic.

Okay, so this is

my moment.

It's possible.

Okay.

So Kylie,

joking, all jokes aside.

I'm sorry to have interrupted you.

Back to Will and Jada.

I just wanted you to know that.

That's amazing.

I'm so happy you told me that because I wouldn't know.

No, I know, and I totally forgot.

It's like a very niche.

It's a very niche.

What do you think about that, Jeff?

It's so funny.

Well, it's because all I ever say is it's a lot.

That was actually.

I'm sorry, but like it's a lot to be a lot.

Will and Jada.

It is.

Okay, there's a lot of things that have just been happening recently.

It's just, it's a lot to, whatever.

And I also see how like...

I think a lot of people are very open at the beginning of their careers.

But Will and Jada are like extremely rich, extremely established, like permanent A-listers.

They don't have to like keep telling us everything.

I know.

And it's kind of, at least for me, and I think the general consensus on the internet, it's like we're now starting to get like annoyed with them.

Well, it's like, just keep, yeah, it's just keep stuff to yourself.

Yeah, exactly.

Because you don't need to know about literally everything.

And the entanglement was a lot.

How do you, I mean...

Like, that should be kept.

What?

And after the slap, like, all this.

content that they've posted over the years has started to resurface.

Just like content that like rubs you the wrong way.

And now it's just like, they seem kind of toxic.

i mean but this is the thing is it both or is it just one who do you think is toxic i mean i feel like jada just like says a little too much yeah no it's like it's almost like you want us to talk it's like almost like you want to constantly be the topic of like are you doing things to get a reaction like it's i don't know it just seems odd to me yeah and she's the one on red table talk and it's her show and i actually love the the the theme of red table talk and like the concept of it.

I agree.

And I love like the three generations sitting and talking, hard conversations.

But I think a lot of times they do overshare.

That's what I'll say.

It's funny though, because like usually I feel like us, like we want to know more.

Of course.

But like it's funny that we're like, it's a little much.

Because you want to know why?

When it's family stuff, it gives me a pain.

I feel like family is the one thing that should always be protected.

It's kind of like the Kardashians.

They do a very good job.

And they always have each other's back no matter what.

No matter what.

And they'll blow up and they'll overshare.

Exactly.

But they always, at the end of the day, are protecting one another.

And the reason why I think they've had such success is because they've remained this unit forever I mean the Robbs and China stuff was like a little chaotic yes but no they never tethered from being like a strong core family and you know you can't mess with them or like poke and pry and like with this it's just like a little too much I agree it's a lot it's a lot I think that's gonna be the name of today's episode it's it's a lot with Tayshia Adams okay we're gonna keep going into the fast five that is brought to you by stamps.com time is money don't waste either with repeated trips to the post office with stamps.com you can skip the trip and focus on how to take your small business to the next level stamps.com lets you print official postage right from your computer, and it saves you money in the process, so you spend less time at the post office and more time making your customers happy.

You're like a queen.

Like, you like do really well with that.

Thank you so much.

No, like, it's really, really good.

You know, it

keeps the lights on here at the morning journey.

Just and you know, when Jackie's here, I feel very comfortable.

But with a co-host, you know, I feel like a little nervous sometimes.

Yeah, I get that.

I get that because I've done that as well.

But like, you just did that in one take, which I just want everybody to know.

That's really freaking hard.

Tisha, that is so nice.

No, it's really hard.

Are you still hosting Bachelor of Happy Hour podcast?

No, no, no.

You're over it.

Yeah.

Gotta go.

Love that for you.

But I feel like you read books really fast.

I do, actually.

That's also what I got from you.

I talk really fast.

What's the last book you read?

Right now, I'm reading The Seven Wives or Husbands of Evelyn Hugo.

My favorite everybody else is reading.

It's so good.

It's really good.

What part are you up to?

I am.

Spoiler alert.

Wait, yeah.

Are we going to let us talk?

We said spoiler alert.

So

Cecilia stopped talking to her.

And so we're talking about like basically Evelyn's like, I lost her forever.

Right.

And this is like where we're trying to depress.

Yeah.

And you know that Netflix bought it and is making it a movie.

Stop.

Well, because I feel like it's everywhere.

Like everyone is talking about it.

It is the biggest book ever.

It's so good.

Okay.

It's so good.

I can't wait to finish.

You read it?

I did read it.

Okay, next up is something I never thought was like two people I didn't even think knew each other apparently are friends and their kids are friends.

Jessica Simpson opened up in an interview that her daughter Maxwell and Northwest are BFFs and that she thinks they're going to be a part of the change in this world.

So she was doing an interview and she said one of Maxwell's best friends is North.

And so watching North, she's she's amazing.

She's a great kid and she will be a part of change in this world.

Her and Maxwell.

She said, Eric, her husband, coached North in basketball just recently.

So it's been really fun because they live in the same neighborhood.

So it makes it really easy for the girls to like hang out.

And I never put these together, like two rich queens, obviously their kids play in the same league.

But I'm obsessed.

The next book you should read is Jessica Simpson's memoir.

Is it good?

It is one of the best celebrity memoirs of all time.

It's juicy as fuck.

Oh my God, because I actually really love her.

Love her.

I was a huge Jessica Simpson stand.

Growing up, we have the same birthday and like that was like I never felt so special.

I never felt so special in my life.

Do you know who your birthday buddy is?

Beyonce.

You're kidding.

Yes.

That's like not fair.

You just totally won-upped me.

I'm so sorry.

Okay, that's iconic.

When's your birthday?

September 4th.

Wow, that's a gorgeous day.

I know.

It's actually pretty amazing.

So you can relate to like feeling better than your classmates back in the day.

I mean,

yeah, I always would be like, it's also Beyonce's birthday, but like, no big deal.

That's iconic.

I know.

It's actually a good one.

But so is Jessica Simpson.

I know.

And like, I love her.

You will love her book.

Me and Jackie have raved about it.

Jackie raved about it.

It's really long.

And for me, like, I have such a short attention span.

If a book is over like 350 pages, I'll be like, my ass will not read it.

Like, I just won't.

Or I'll stop like halfway through.

I couldn't put it down.

Really?

Unbelievable.

Okay, wait, I'm going to read that.

And a lot of celebrities talk in their book about their childhood, which is like the worst part of the celebrity book, just like tell us the juicy stuff.

Yeah.

But the way she grew up is insane.

Like, it's just.

I forget, like, her dad.

Yes.

Ashley, oh my god.

And Mark.

Like, they ran this church in, like, a really poor part of town.

And, like, they, just the craziest stories of how, like, her mom helped people in the community.

It was really amazing.

Um, you'll love the book.

Okay, okay, I'm gonna read it.

And then, like, John Mayer or Nick.

John May and like Nick.

It's so good.

We, okay, okay, putting it on the docket.

Um, but her kid is friends with Northwest, and I just love North.

Never guessed.

Never.

I guess I never, I forgot, like, her kid is the same age as North.

Right, and I always forget, like, how rich Jessica Simpson is from her clothing line.

Like, she doesn't even do me.

So true.

It's like a billion-dollar company, Jessica Simpson Clothing.

Holy macaroni.

And she just bought it.

What a queen.

No, I know.

It was owned by Kohl's, I think.

Yes, yes.

She totally bought it out.

She owns a company herself now.

Oh, my gosh, I didn't know that.

She's a rich queen.

So, of course, like her and the Kardashians are just, you know, watching soccer together.

Wait, but I kind of needed her to come out with like an album again.

I know.

Well, so how fun would that be?

If you buy the, ready?

If you buy the audiobook of her book, the end has a couple songs.

This is never released.

Party of One is one.

It's really good.

Okay, okay, okay.

I'm listening to it tomorrow on my flight tomorrow.

And she talks about her journey with music.

Like, it was really toxic because of her dad.

I could imagine.

And there's just a lot there.

And she's just a queen.

Okay, so her kids play with North.

I want to, okay, you know what I want to know?

What?

If they're friends and they're teenagers, like what their texting situation would be like, can you imagine being like those conversations?

Like, oh my God.

Like, who else is their age?

I need to figure this out.

Penelope Disick is their age.

Okay.

I don't know about what other celebrity kids, but what I'm thinking about is like when they grow up and like become like the Lindsey Lohan, Parrot Tilton, I was just going clubbing, paparazzi, like style icons.

It's going to be insane.

It's going to be insane.

And like I might be 50 years old, but like I will be interested.

100%.

I'm like, that is so cute.

I can't wait for that.

No, it's actually going to be amazing.

And we're going to be able to tell our kids, like, you know, back in my day, their moms

work.

We're like our icons.

Yeah, sure, whatever, mom.

They're probably going to think that we're like so old, whatever.

Like, why are you interested?

But, like, I will be caring about this.

Absolutely.

For years to come.

Oh, my gosh.

I can't even, I'm like excited for their looks.

I cannot imagine Northwest and Maxwell being teenagers.

I know, but like the looks they'll serve.

I guess like all parents feel this way.

And like, I'm not even North's parent, but like, they really do grow up so fast.

Nope.

North was just born.

I remember the picture that Katie posted of North in the crib.

Like, I remember everything.

Okay, also, did you see the article where like Sandra and Channing, like, their kids, got in a fight at school and they went to the principal's office together?

Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum?

Yes.

They got sent to the principal's office?

Yes.

They Something happened.

They had like an all like a fight at school.

And like they literally called each parent into the principal's office.

And like, could you imagine like sitting there and like Sandra's like the mom to the kid that your kids getting in fight with?

I would literally, this is how thirsty I am.

I would move to LA, send my kids like the best school and tell them to start a fight with the kid whose parents are most famous so that I can get called to the principal's office and it's just me and Jason Momoa.

I literally said the same thing.

I'm like, I do not come to an fighting because at the same time, like just like go like tap her shoulder a a little bit.

You know, or tell her she's ugly, you know?

Do whatever it has to take, okay?

And do what you do.

What do you got to do?

Do what you got to do.

It is so funny.

I'm telling you, like.

What if they all go to high school together?

Wow.

Like, see, like, real, what is it?

The OC come to life.

Or like Beverly Hills.

90210.

Remember that show?

So good.

The remake or like the original?

Well, I grew up in the remake era.

Okay, well, yeah, I watched.

Wish Grimes.

Yes.

So good.

Silver.

Do you remember her name?

Silver?

And that was her name?

Silver?

Her name is Annie.

No, Annie.

Yeah, but the other character, her name was Silver.

And I remember I wanted to be named Silver so bad.

The girl with the short haircut and really pretty blue eyes.

I don't remember.

Oh, yes.

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.

Her name was Silver in the show.

Yes.

And Analyn McCord.

Yes.

As Naomi.

Which is such an iconic character.

And Sarah Foster as Naomi.

That's right.

Yeah.

That was such a good show.

Amazing.

And Megan Markle was in it.

No.

Yes.

So, like, you wouldn't wouldn't have remembered her, but once she got, you know, famous with Harry,

the scene, she's just a random extra who's giving someone a blowjob in the back of a car.

And she, like, picks her head up and is like, what?

You're joking.

I swear it's Megan Markle.

Oh, my God.

Yeah.

I would have never.

Oh, my gosh.

Okay, now I really need to go watch it.

The more you know.

More you watch, honey.

I'm so happy for North and Maxwell.

Yes.

I think I'm about to become a full-time babysitter in the Northern California area.

That's a really good idea.

All right.

Final story.

It's a little bit of of a developing story.

I don't know if you know that Black China and the Kardashians are in court right now.

Had no idea.

So Black China sued them.

They counter-sued.

This is like hundreds of million dollars.

She's suing them for damages.

She claims that the Kardashians had the TV show Robin China canceled.

And like now she's suing for damages.

Whatever.

It's all back and forth.

There's been a lot of news, but now people are like quaking because Black China's mom, Tokyo Tony, has been making these like unhinged videos on the internet and posting them during the trial.

Like she was outside the courtroom yesterday talking about how the Kardashians are so scared of Black China because they're losing in the courtroom.

And she went on Instagram live yesterday and she threatened the judge.

She said, I'm going to get that judge.

Oh my God.

And that actually could have like really bad implications for her in court.

So Black China's mom, Tokyo Tony, may have taken her displeasure with the judge a little too far because she's allegedly threatened him in her daughter's trial against the Kardashians.

Tokyo went off on the judge while live streaming Tuesday on Instagram from just outside the courthouse where the civil case is underway.

She said, I'm going to get that judge.

She's reacting to the judge booting her from the courtroom earlier that day.

She was asked to leave.

And this could be extremely problematic for Tokyo because even an oblique threat against a judge is taken really seriously by law enforcement, especially after attacks against judges and their families have increased measurably over the last few years.

She's been super active on Instagram this week, going off on the social media platform on Monday, ripping the Kardashians over their appearance on the first day of the jury selection.

So

she said, the family looked dead and compared Chris Chenner to the bad guy from the movie Saw.

Oh, she's unhinged.

Like she's really out of control.

She seems

like I hate calling people toxic, but she's toxic.

No, she's the definition of toxic.

And like, honestly, I don't know the legality.

I don't know if Black China has a leg to stand on, but in the court of public opinion, her mom is making her look terrible.

I was going to say, like, she's basically losing it for her daughter.

Right.

Why would you...

People do not realize, I know they want to get their message across on live, but like, honey, you're live.

No, like, you can't take that back.

Live is a death sentence.

No, it really is.

No, I think this woman is so insane.

And I can't believe that like for the next couple of weeks, our Kardashians are gonna have to sit in a courtroom with Black China.

I'm sure they fucking hate Black China.

How can you know?

How do you know?

It just seems like it's just, if it's not one thing, it's another.

I know.

What was it before?

Like, also, it's Taiga too?

It's Taiga.

It was like having a baby with Rob really out of spite.

It's just so messy.

And there was also a bunch of drama last week where she she was claiming that

she doesn't get paid enough child support, blah, blah, blah.

And it was on the shade room.

Actually, it was really funny.

So she was commenting on the shade room, and the shade room made it a post.

Like, Black China claims she doesn't get child support.

And Tyga commented and was like, I have my kids six days a week.

Why would I pay child support?

Oh, shit.

And then Rob commented, I have my kid every day but Tuesday.

Why would I pay child support?

Oh my God.

So they both like came together and were comparing how much they pay.

And Taiga, I guess, pays like a couple thousand dollars more a month towards black china and he was like making jokes about how he has to pay more he's like rob how'd you get off paying this love it was so crazy so she's just like the definition of messy she's messy and i think her mom and her are just not making her case in a literal sense dang it like honestly i feel so bad dream is the prettiest child it's and you know what like it's the kardashians even after all that china has they've been through with china they love that kid love oh my god they treat her so well and i didn't know that the kid kid was living with Rob mostly full-time.

I didn't know that either.

I just assumed the kid was with China.

Yeah, but I also just feel like there's so many kids in the family.

It would be so bad to exclude her.

And I'm so happy that she's all.

Totally.

But the way that she came into this world was just so crazy.

That was the crazy.

Remember when Rob posted a picture of her vagina on Instagram?

Oh, my God.

Jesus.

That was just.

It's been...

a freaking roller coaster since day one.

As we refer to it as the vagina,

it was just the craziest day in pop culture history.

And to this day.

To this day, no.

To this day.

Nothing crazier has happened.

Oh, my God.

They were just so messy.

I'm actually really looking forward to seeing how this plays out.

I don't think that the Kardashians had anything to do with Robin China getting canceled, first of all, because if they didn't want the show to happen, they wouldn't.

It never would happen.

First of all, yeah.

Second of all, Rob and China broke up.

Yeah, that's actually so true.

Why would they continue it on?

Right, like you're not together.

It's a really messy.

Like, we don't need another Jerry Springer show, I feel like it was.

Breaking news.

Oh, my God.

Breaking news.

Thank you.

Lizzie sent it to me.

Oh, my God.

ASAP Rocky has been arrested at LAX.

Wait, what?

ASAP Rocky was taken into custody as he flew into LAX this Wednesday morning.

Eyewitnesses at the airport tell TMZ that the rapper flew into LA from Barbados on a private jet where he was met by cops at the terminal and taken away in handcuffs.

According to NBC News, the arrest stems from a November 2021 shooting where an alleged victim claimed that Rocky shot them three or four times, grazing the victim's left hand.

So he was in Barbados because Rihanna's, I think, wants to give birth in Barbados.

Yeah.

And she's like close to, she's at at the point where you can't really travel.

So she's staying in Barbados.

And I guess he had to come back because he was under arrest and he like surrendered himself.

Wait, this is like really bad.

And so stressful for Rihanna.

Wait, how can this be happening?

Okay, wait, is she about to

feel?

I don't think she's there yet because she was able to fly down to Barbados.

And they say you can't fly past seven months.

So I think she might still have a good ton of time.

But still, regardless, wait, this is really juicy.

Okay, my heart is beating now.

I know that's the thing.

Morning.

We need to the bottom of this.

You never know what's going to happen.

Wow.

I know.

This study is like the segment you need to be listening to every single morning.

Which, by the way, my mom listened yesterday and she was like, Did you know that it's Theo's birthday?

It is.

Oh, thank you so much for saying that.

It is Theo's birthday today.

Everyone, he turned five.

If you want to go wish him happy birthday on his Instagram, Pups With No Job, check it out.

I'm really just wishing the best for Rihanna.

I'm really nervous for her now.

And she doesn't need that kind of stress.

I was just going to say that.

It's very bad for the baby to be stressful.

So we need her to be keeping her peace.

Also, because now she's like in Barbados, which is so far away.

I know.

So it's like you feel helpless.

Oh, gosh.

Well, breaking news.

We'll keep you updated on that developing story.

Before we let you go, Tisha, I need you for our Deer Toaster segment.

Yes.

All right, Tayshia, our first submission comes from a girl who needs some help.

Hey girls, I'm 24 years old and my roommate and close friend who's 23, we both work at the same restaurant as servers.

There's a 60-year-old man who's a regular that comes in every day and has been

banned before for drinking too much, being too loud, and being creepy towards and touching the servers inappropriately.

This is the man who is now my roommate's new boyfriend.

I've told her several times that I don't feel comfortable with

her having him over at our apartment.

And regardless of whether I'm home or not, I still don't feel comfortable.

She doesn't think it's fair that he can't come over here and doesn't respect the fact that I'm uncomfortable.

He also has his own place that they can go to that's less than 10 minutes away.

We also have a third friend slash roommate who lives with us, but she doesn't work at the same restaurant.

I just feel weird that he would want to come over and hang around three young girls in their 20s.

He has two daughters who are older than us.

And I'm not judging my friend for who she chooses to date, but I just personally am not comfortable with him being around.

So what I'm wondering is if I'm an asshole for telling my friend that I don't want her boyfriend to come to our apartment, even if I'm not home.

It feels like it's pushing a personal boundary since I have to serve him at work all the time since he comes in every day.

The reason I'm torn on what to do is because it's still her apartment as much as it is mine.

And I do have my boyfriend, who's who's the same age as me, sleepover sometimes.

What do I do?

Wow.

I mean, that's a lot of fun.

That's a lot.

That's a lot.

It's weird, first of all.

100%.

And I know you're not judging your friend, but like I would.

Okay, wait.

So just to clarify, she knows about all of these things.

Yeah.

Then, yeah, then I would kind of go.

She works at the restaurant too.

What is like the point?

What are you doing?

Honestly, like, I don't think you're out of bounds for asking him not to come over, especially when you're home.

Where it does get a little dicey is like you asking her not to have her boyfriend over when you're not home.

Like,

what's the danger there?

Yeah, I would agree with that.

If I'm home, I don't feel comfortable.

And like as my roommate and as another person that like pays rent at this place,

I would like for you to respect that boundary.

And if he's 60 years old, he probably has his own house.

Like, why does he want to hang out with girls, three girls who live together?

That's what she's saying.

That's so creepy and weird.

Creepy baby.

But also at the same time, I feel like if you express this feeling and she doesn't reciprocate or understand, I think it's your time to kind of move out.

I know.

The thing is, like, you're the one who's uncomfortable.

So I do think that means you're the one who has to leave.

Exactly.

Not her, because you're the one with the problem.

And moving, you know, I don't know where you live, but it's impossible to move in New York right now.

It's so tough.

We get it.

I mean, I mean, you can be a bitch.

I was just going to say, I was going to say, wait, what do you do in that situation then?

I mean, if that was me, like, I'm out.

Like, my house is my safe space.

I'm like a real homebody.

Some people use their house as a place to sleep and it's out all the time.

Not me, bitch.

Like, I'm home all the time.

I eat home.

I eat at home.

I live at home.

I host at home.

Everything is home.

So for me, this is a huge deal breaker.

And like, I would spare no expense.

I'd be really uncomfortable.

How do you sleep?

I would be, I would be so uncomfortable.

I couldn't do it.

Same.

And I would do anything to then find myself a new place where I feel safe.

But again, like it's, it's expensive.

Um, I think you can try to be really stern with her and maybe try asking her to not have him over when you're home.

Yes.

And see if that makes you feel better.

Yes, I agree.

And then try to have, try to see if you can spend more time at his place.

I don't understand why they wouldn't.

That's so odd to me.

It's so odd.

Is that not a red flag?

Obviously.

And your friend.

That's what I'm saying.

Like your friend seems like her priorities are fucked up.

I'm really sorry that you're in that situation.

Because there's a difference between dating someone older.

I think a lot of young girls do that.

Like they date someone older for fun and they buy them stuff.

It's fun.

Right.

But when

this man has like a history of being creepy, it's just not.

It's not the vibe.

It's your turn to get out.

It's your turn to go.

Yeah.

Or maybe you start dating someone and start spending a lot of time at their house.

Like start couch surfing.

Yeah, we're too.

Where does your boyfriend live?

She said she had a boyfriend.

Where's your boyfriend?

What's your boyfriend?

Now, this is what?

This is the exact step you need with me.

This is the exact step you need with him.

Be like, babe, I'm really not feeling comfortable at home.

I think I need to move in with you.

And the next thing you know, you're married.

Can I say tonight?

Can I say tonight?

And the next thing you know, he's like, do you want to just move in?

Yeah.

Like, I forgot.

I'm helping you out.

Okay, wait.

I forgot she had a boyfriend.

Do you love this man?

Yeah.

No more details.

The boyfriend is your answer.

I agree with you.

Thank you for bringing that up.

Yeah.

This next one is psychotic.

Okay.

Oh, God.

Hey, Claude and Tatia.

My boyfriend Theo and I have been together for five years.

We've been living together for two years, and we've been discussing next steps and marriage and I couldn't be more excited.

Theo and his two female gay co-workers who are dating each other went out to lunch out of the office this past week.

I'm friendly with the couple and I've hung out with them casually a handful of times, but they aren't mine or Theo's like best friends or anything.

At lunch, they asked Theo how comfortable he would be by giving them a sperm donation in the near future so that they would be able to conceive a child.

Theo told them that I probably wouldn't have any issues with it and that he would love to do that for them.

When Theo told me, I shared with him that I was not comfortable with that situation whatsoever.

I don't want Theo to have a child in the world that we do not care for and I don't feel a weird need to co-parent his offspring that's out in the world.

If his sperm is going to produce a child, I want it in my uterus and in my home.

I also was hurt considering how big of a question that is and that this couple didn't include me in the discussion considering that they know me.

Theo told me that he would not.

Theo told me that he would love to provide his coworkers what they biologically cannot do for themselves and that my stance was very selfish.

I can see myself as a mom in the future, future, but I also cannot see myself as a mom.

Theo and I could thrive in any scenario, but our recent discussions about our future do not have children in them.

I feel like most women just know that they want to be a mom, and I honestly haven't ever felt that feeling, but I may in some time.

For context, Theo and I are both approaching 30.

The female gay couple is in their mid-30s and they've been dating for about a year.

They aren't married.

Ladies, what do I do?

Should I tell the couple I'm not comfortable with it and kindly, um, and kindly not to ask Theo knowing that he is comfortable with it or just give it time and hope that they find another donor?

Any advice is appreciated.

This is so much to unpack.

Wait, hold on a second.

I need to like just catch my breath.

Yeah, because like I actually can't breathe after, I was like holding my breath like the entire time.

There's so many layers versus your Theo not asking you and just saying yes is a like

that's rude.

It's such a big decision.

It's such a red flag to like not even consider your feelings.

Absolutely, especially because like he's not single.

Right.

He's dating you.

And the couple asking Theo without the girl present

is also a strategic move on their part because of course because they know that he's going to say yes.

They want to be like, oh my my God.

Because I don't think a man really thinks about it as anything other than like fluid he's donating, whereas a girl really sees it as a biological connection.

I agree.

So, I mean, this is beyond bizarre.

It really is.

And you have every right to be mad at everyone involved for not including you and then just making a decision that does affect you without you.

But where do we go from here?

That is, I'm not entirely sure.

Okay, wait, hold on one second.

They're engaged or they're just dating?

Just dating.

For a year.

Okay.

I definitely think it would be an entirely different situation if they were engaged.

The gay couple, no, oh, sorry, the gay couple, Theo and her.

The gay couple are engaged, Theo and her are not, yeah.

But if Theo and her were engaged, it would be totally different, but also at the same time, damn, this is hard.

I know, because I agree, like

you do want to, like, I like, I love that Theo wants to be like super sweet and like help them out, and I love the sentiment, but also at the same time, I feel like it's really putting him and his relationship in a really awkward predicament.

And like,

I get it, like, but why do you want his specifically?

Like, that's a little strange to me.

Like, there are services for this.

Right.

And you know what?

Like, I think that if you're a couple who needs a donation, whatever your circumstances are, it's actually very easy and I think affordable to get sperm.

There are sperm banks.

I think where it gets really pricey and complicated is when you buy eggs.

So, for a lesbian couple, I think that, and a sperm donor, I think you can really customize.

Like, you can find out this person's family history, medical history, looks,

so I feel like it would just be way easier to go to a sperm, and then you don't have the whole complicated, like, what if you and Theo, you know, get into a fight?

Like, with a sperm donor, it's totally anonymous.

Geez, okay.

What do we tell her?

I mean, honestly,

if it were me, I would tell him that I'm a

situation.

Me too.

I would tell them.

And I think, honestly, him not telling you and then him being mad at you and calling you selfish, like huge Theo red flag.

Well, yeah, that's.

Is he going to make other like really big life decisions without you buy a house?

That's kind of strange.

Yeah, no, that's really fucked up.

So, basically, I think you need to actually like

evaluate your relationship.

If it's something that you actually see long-term that you're going to get engaged to and like you want to be with this man, marry, have his, well, maybe, maybe have his babies, then I think you should definitely vocalize.

If it's something that, like, you know what, you're kind of on the fence, and like, you've been kind of feeling like maybe this is my guy, maybe not.

This might be that can also come into play.

And like, this might be your sign to be like, you know what, maybe this isn't the relationship for me because he's not considering me.

And he's really like, which is

a situation.

His answer should have been, I'm honored you asked me.

I have to talk to my girlfriend.

100%.

And the fact that he totally dismissed your feelings and just you in general, like, is making me mad.

No, I know.

I'm kind of fired up.

I don't, I don't like this at all.

And I think, like, you know what, this might have been a blessing in disguise because people show like their true colors.

And I'm not encouraging you to break up with your boyfriend or anything.

But like, I don't know.

It's, it's worth thinking about.

After, like, this is a good idea.

I would kind of think about that.

Big time.

And just kind of the way he,

a lot of it is bothering me.

Yeah, I agree.

I agree.

I think you need to evaluate if this is a relationship you want to pursue.

And if it is, like, you need to have a major conversation with this man.

And don't let him just blow off your feelings.

Like, you have completely valid.

He can't get mad at you like, oh, I'm trying to help my friend.

I understand that, but at the same time, like, do you see a future with me?

Because, like, I should be considered in that as well.

And the fact that you didn't is huge.

Whoa.

Yeah.

Heavy topics here with Deer Toasters.

Wow.

I've got one more for you, Taysha.

Okay.

Anyways, I have a guy friend in high school who was my best friend.

We were always very flirty with each other, very touchy-feely, but we never dated.

He got married right when we graduated, and he has has since had four kids.

We're both only 28.

We lost touch after high school, and we only really keep up on Facebook.

I met my boyfriend almost four years ago, and we are totally endgame.

He's the love of my life.

Well, three days ago, my old male best friend messaged me on Facebook and told me he's getting divorced.

Then he asked me if I had any single friends and how to use dating apps.

I was upfront with my boyfriend.

I shared with him all the messages.

My boyfriend was not worried.

We have a pretty normal, trusting relationship.

The weird part is now the guy friend is asking to hang out with us.

I understand he's newly single and never lived a single life.

I mean, he's never even been to a concert.

Oh my gosh.

But I think him asking us to hang out is just so weird.

Am I overreacting?

Do I tell him no or do I invite him to our next outing?

Any help is appreciated.

My boyfriend trusts me.

I just don't want to disrespect him.

And also, how do I know that the friend isn't trying to infiltrate my relationship?

I feel like you're being kind of paranoid.

Yeah, it's nice.

I feel like it's empathetic.

Listen, I feel like as a person that has actually been divorced and like it's like a very lonely time, like you kind of latch on to people that, I don't know, like are close to you, but also you kind of want to like just get out there and feel like a different vibe.

So maybe he's just like looking for some type of friendship.

And it's nice that he thought of you and you think about it.

So he's 28.

He got married right after graduation.

He has four kids.

He probably doesn't have a lot of friends.

Exactly.

And that's why the first memory that comes to mind is you.

And for you, it feels weird.

But for him, it's like, oh, my old friend, Katie.

Yeah, he probably still thinks like really fond of like that relationship that you guys once had.

Yeah.

So that, yeah.

But at the same time, I wouldn't hang out with him one-on-one.

No, of course.

I would definitely invite him like as a group to me.

A barbecue.

I don't think that's weird.

I don't think it's weird either.

And I think you're right.

Like of the, I mean, I've never been divorced, but I imagine it's extremely isolating.

It is.

Especially when you have friends as a couple and they get like split up and, you know, you thought you were really friendly with someone, but they go with the other party.

You kind of lose, like, all people

around you.

So I think it's sweet that he's reaching out.

And I don't think you have anything to be worried about.

If your boyfriend seems cool, I thought you were going to say your boyfriend's being like weird and jealous.

Yeah, yeah.

But he's being cool.

So just like...

Like, I should try to hit on you.

Right.

And that's what I thought the situation was going to be.

Me too.

But you're never going to regret, you know, being nice and offering, you know, an invitation to a barbecue.

Fill it out once.

And if it feels uncomfortable, then like you can also just be like, okay, like, whatever.

It's making me sad that he's reaching out to you.

Yeah.

He hasn't made like a ton of really good friends since high school.

Yeah, I think he's just like, he's like trying to like find himself again, truthfully.

And like you kind of revert back to like what you were used to at one point in time.

That's sweet.

That's you.

I think you're being a little paranoid.

Me too.

I think it seems harmless.

So I would respond.

And you know what?

Just be kind.

I think that's the message you.

Yeah.

Invite him over.

Invite him over, but like in a group setting.

Yeah.
